glossary: extend "detached HEAD" descriptionJunio C Hamano Fri, 5 Apr 2013 15:19:41 +0000 (08:19 -0700)

glossary: extend "detached HEAD" description

When we introduced the concept of "detached HEAD", we made sure that
commands that operate on the history of the current branch "just
work" in that state. They update the HEAD to point at the new
history without affecting any branch when the HEAD is detached, just
like they update the tip of the "current branch" to point at the new
history when HEAD points at a specific branch.

As this is done as the natural extension for these commands, we did
not, we still do not, and we do not want to repeat "A detached HEAD
is updated without affecting any branch" when describing what each
and every one of these commands that operates "on the current branch"
does.

Add a blanket description to the glossary to cover them instead.
The general principle is that operations to update the branch work
on and affect the HEAD, while operations to update the information
about a branch do not.

diffcore-pickaxe: unify code for log -S/-GJeff King Fri, 5 Apr 2013 05:28:10 +0000 (01:28 -0400)

diffcore-pickaxe: unify code for log -S/-G

The logic flow of has_changes() used for "log -S" and diff_grep()
used for "log -G" are essentially the same. See if we have both
sides that could be different in any interesting way, slurp the
contents in core, possibly after applying textconv, inspect the
contents, clean-up and report the result. The only difference
between the two is how "inspect" step works.

Unify this codeflow in a helper, pickaxe_match(), which takes a
callback function that implements the specific "inspect" step.

After removing the common scaffolding code from the existing
has_changes() and diff_grep(), they each becomes such a callback
function suitable for passing to pickaxe_match().

diffcore-pickaxe: fix leaks in "log -S<block>" and "log -G<pattern>"

The diff_grep() and has_changes() functions had early return
codepaths for unmerged filepairs, which simply returned 0. When we
taught textconv filter to them, one was ignored and continued to
return early without freeing the result filtered by textconv, and
the other had a failed attempt to fix, which allowed the planned
return value 0 to be overwritten by a bogus call to contains().

diffcore-pickaxe: port optimization from has_changes() to diff_grep()

These two functions are called in the same codeflow to implement
"log -S<block>" and "log -G<pattern>", respectively, but the latter
lacked two obvious optimizations the former implemented, namely:

- When a pickaxe limit is not given at all, they should return
without wasting any cycle;

- When both sides of the filepair are the same, and the same
textconv conversion apply to them, return early, as there will be
no interesting differences between the two anyway.

Also release the filespec data once the processing is done (this is
not about leaking memory--it is about releasing data we finished
looking at as early as possible).

t3600: document failure of rm across symbolic linksJeff King Fri, 5 Apr 2013 00:00:09 +0000 (20:00 -0400)

t3600: document failure of rm across symbolic links

If we have a symlink "d" that points to a directory, we
should not be able to remove "d/f". In the normal case,
where "d/f" does not exist in the index, we already disallow
this, as we only remove things that git knows about in the
index. So for something like:

ln -s /outside/repo foo
git add foo
git rm foo/bar

we will properly produce an error (as there is no index
entry for foo/bar). However, if there is an index entry for
the path (e.g., because the movement is due to working tree
changes that have not yet been reflected in the index), we
will happily delete it, even though the path we delete from the
filesystem is not the same as the path in the index.

This patch documents that failure with a test.

While this is a bug, it should not be possible to cause
serious data loss with it. For any path that does not have
an index entry, we will complain and bail. For a path which
does have an index entry, we will do the usual up-to-date
content check. So even if the deleted path in the filesystem
is not the same as the one we are removing from the index,
we do know that they at least have the same content, and
that the content is included in HEAD.

That means the worst case is not the accidental loss of
content, but rather confusion by the user when a copy of a
file another part of the tree is removed. Which makes this
bug a minor and hard-to-trigger annoyance rather than a
data-loss bug (and hence the fix can be saved for a rainy
day when somebody feels like working on it).

diffcore-pickaxe: remove unnecessary call to get_textconv()Simon Ruderich Thu, 4 Apr 2013 20:20:29 +0000 (22:20 +0200)

diffcore-pickaxe: remove unnecessary call to get_textconv()

The fill_one() function is responsible for finding and filling the
textconv filter as necessary, and is called by diff_grep() function
that implements "git log -G<pattern>".

The has_changes() function that implements "git log -S<block>" calls
get_textconv() for two sides being compared, before it checks to see
if it was asked to perform the pickaxe limiting. Move the code
around to avoid this wastage.

After has_changes() calls get_textconv() to obtain textconv for both
sides, fill_one() is called to use them.

By adding get_textconv() to diff_grep() and relieving fill_one() of
responsibility to find the textconv filter, we can avoid calling
get_textconv() twice in has_changes().

With this change it's also no longer necessary for fill_one() to
modify the textconv argument, therefore pass a pointer instead of a
pointer to a pointer.

The actual complaint appears to be a bug in the underlying
implementation. What's interesting here is that it is apparently
_triggered_ by closing stderr, which results in (from strace)

write(2, "fatal: Needed a single revision\n", 32) = -1 EBADF (Bad file descriptor)
write(2, "\0", 1) = -1 EBADF (Bad file descriptor)

Closing stderr is a bad idea anyway: there is a very real chance that
we print fatal error messages to some other file that just happens to
be opened on the now-free FD 2. So let's not do that.

As pointed out by Eric Wong (thanks), the initial close needs to go:
die() would again write nowhere if we close STDERR beforehand.

t3600: test behavior of reverse-d/f conflict

The previous commit taught "rm" that it is safe to consider
"d/f" removed when "d" has become a non-directory. This
patch adds a test for the opposite: a file "d" that becomes
a directory.

In this case, "git rm" does need to complain, because we
should not be removing arbitrary content under "d". Git
already behaves correctly, but let's make sure that remains
the case by protecting the behavior with a test.

rm: do not complain about d/f conflicts during deletionJeff King Thu, 4 Apr 2013 19:03:35 +0000 (15:03 -0400)

rm: do not complain about d/f conflicts during deletion

If we used to have an index entry "d/f", but "d" has been
replaced by a non-directory entry, the user may still want
to run "git rm" to delete the stale index entry. They could
use "git rm --cached" to just touch the index, but "git rm"
should also work: we explicitly try to handle the case that
the file has already been removed from the working tree.

However, because unlinking "d/f" in this case will not yield
ENOENT, but rather ENOTDIR, we do not notice that the file
is already gone. Instead, we report it as an error.

The simple solution is to treat ENOTDIR in this case exactly
like ENOENT; all we want to know is whether the file is
already gone, and if a leading path is no longer a
directory, then by definition the sub-path is gone.

rerere forget: do not segfault if not all stages are present

The loop that fills in the buffers that are later passed to the merge
driver exits early when not all stages of a path are present in the index.
But since the buffer pointers are not initialized in advance, the
subsequent accesses are undefined.

Initialize buffer pointers in advance to avoid undefined behavior later.

That is not sufficient, though, to get correct operation of handle_cache().
The function replays a conflicted merge to extract the part inside the
conflict markers. As written, the loop exits early when a stage is missing.
Consequently, the buffers for later stages that would be present in the
index are not filled in and the merge is replayed with incomplete data.

Fix it by investigating all stages of the given path.

add -u: only show pathless 'add -u' warning when changes exist outside cwd

A common workflow in large projects is to chdir into a subdirectory of
interest and only do work there:

cd src
vi foo.c
make test
git add -u
git commit

The upcoming change to 'git add -u' behavior would not affect such a
workflow: when the only changes present are in the current directory,
'git add -u' will add all changes, and whether that happens via an
implicit "." or implicit ":/" parameter is an unimportant
implementation detail.

The warning about use of 'git add -u' with no pathspec is annoying
because it seemingly serves no purpose in this case. So suppress the
warning unless there are changes outside the cwd that are not being
added.

A previous version of this patch ran two I/O-intensive diff-files
passes: one to find changes outside the cwd, and another to find
changes to add to the index within the cwd. This version runs one
full-tree diff and decides for each change whether to add it or warn
and suppress it in update_callback. As a result, even on very large
repositories "git add -u" will not be significantly slower than the
future default behavior ("git add -u :/"), and the slowdown relative
to "git add -u ." should be a useful clue to users of such
repositories to get into the habit of explicitly passing '.'.

also show the overall hints after it is done.

While at it, change the definition of the "-a" option to use OPT_BOOL,
not the deprecated OPT_BOOLEAN. We do not behave differently when

branch: improve error message for missing --set-upstream-to ref

If we are trying to set the upstream config for a branch,
the create_branch function will check both that the name
resolves as a ref, and that it is either a local or
remote-tracking branch.

However, before we do so we run get_sha1 on it to find out
whether it resolves at all (since the create_branch function
is also used to create actual branches, it wants to know
where to start the new branch). This means that if you feed
a ref that does not exist to "branch --set-upstream-to",
rather than getting a helpful message about tracking, you
only get "not a valid object name".

These tests pass with the current code, but let's make sure
we don't accidentally break the behavior in the future.

Note that our tests expect failure when we try to set the
upstream to or from a missing branch. Technically we are
just munging config here, so we do not need the refs to
exist. But seeing that they do exist is a good check that
the user has not made a typo.

filter-branch: return to original dir after filteringJeff King Tue, 2 Apr 2013 14:22:19 +0000 (10:22 -0400)

filter-branch: return to original dir after filtering

The first thing filter-branch does is to create a temporary
directory, either ".git-rewrite" in the current directory
(which may be the working tree or the repository if bare),
or in a directory specified by "-d". We then chdir to
$tempdir/t as our temporary working directory in which to run
tree filters.

After finishing the filter, we then attempt to go back to
the original directory with "cd ../..". This works in the
.git-rewrite case, but if "-d" is used, we end up in a
random directory. The only thing we do after this chdir is
to run git-read-tree, but that means that:

1. The working directory is not updated to reflect the
filtered history.

2. We dump random files into "$tempdir/.." (e.g., if you
use "-d /tmp/foo", we dump junk into /tmp).

Fix it by recording the full path to the original directory
and returning there explicitly.

rerere forget: grok files containing NULJohannes Sixt Mon, 1 Apr 2013 21:36:36 +0000 (23:36 +0200)

rerere forget: grok files containing NUL

Using 'git rerere forget .' after a merge that involved binary files
runs into an infinite loop if the binary file contains a zero byte.
Replace a strchrnul by memchr because the former does not make progress
as soon as the NUL is encountered.

remote.c: introduce branch.<name>.pushremoteRamkumar Ramachandra Tue, 2 Apr 2013 07:40:34 +0000 (13:10 +0530)

remote.c: introduce branch.<name>.pushremote

This new configuration variable overrides `remote.pushdefault` and
`branch.<name>.remote` for pushes. When you pull from one
place (e.g. your upstream) and push to another place (e.g. your own
publishing repository), you would want to set `remote.pushdefault` to
specify the remote to push to for all branches, and use this option to
override it for a specific branch.

remote.c: introduce remote.pushdefault

This new configuration variable defines the default remote to push to,
and overrides `branch.<name>.remote` for all branches. It is useful
in the typical triangular-workflow setup, where the remote you're
fetching from is different from the remote you're pushing to.

remote.c: introduce a way to have different remotes... Ramkumar Ramachandra Tue, 2 Apr 2013 07:40:32 +0000 (13:10 +0530)

remote.c: introduce a way to have different remotes for fetch/push

Currently, do_push() in push.c calls remote_get(), which gets the
configured remote for fetching and pushing. Replace this call with a
call to pushremote_get() instead, a new function that will return the
remote configured specifically for pushing. This function tries to
work with the string pushremote_name, before falling back to the
codepath of remote_get(). This patch has no visible impact, but
serves to enable future patches to introduce configuration variables
to set pushremote_name. For example, you can now do the following in
handle_config():

if (!strcmp(key, "remote.pushdefault"))
git_config_string(&pushremote_name, key, value);

Then, pushes will automatically go to the remote specified by
remote.pushdefault.

t5516 (fetch-push): drop implicit arguments from helper... Jeff King Tue, 2 Apr 2013 07:40:31 +0000 (13:10 +0530)

t5516 (fetch-push): drop implicit arguments from helper functions

Many of the tests in t5516 look like:

mk_empty &&
git push testrepo ... &&
check_push_result $commit heads/master

It's reasonably easy to see what is being tested, with the
exception that "testrepo" is a magic global name (it is
implicitly used in the helpers, but we have to name it
explicitly when calling git directly). Let's make it
explicit when call the helpers, too. This is slightly more
typing, but makes the test snippets read more naturally.

It also makes it easy for future tests to use an alternate
or multiple repositories, without a proliferation of helper
functions.

t5516 (fetch-push): update test description

The file was originally created in bcdb34f (Test wildcard push/fetch,
2007-06-08), and only contained tests that exercised wildcard
functionality at the time. In subsequent commits, many other tests
unrelated to wildcards were added but the test description was never
updated. Fix this.
