vcs-svn: make buffer_copy_bytes return length read
Currently buffer_copy_bytes does not report to its caller whether
it encountered an early end of file.
Add a return value representing the number of bytes read (but not
the number of bytes copied). This way all three unusual conditions
can be distinguished: input error with buffer_ferror, output error
with ferror(outfile), early end of input by checking the return
value.

vcs-svn: make buffer_skip_bytes return length read

Move from uint32_t to off_t as the fundamental unit of length used by
the line_buffer library. Performance would get worse if anything but
I think it's worth it for support of deltas that need to skip large
pieces (> 4 GiB).
Exception: buffer_read_string still takes a uint32_t, since it keeps
its result in an in-core obj_pool.
Callers still have to be updated to take advantage of this.

Restrict the repo_tree API to functions that are actually needed.
- decouple reading the mode and content of dirents from other
operations.
- remove repo_modify_path. It is only used to read the mode from
dirents.
- remove the ability to use repo_read_mode on a missing path. The
existing code only errors out in that case, anyway.

svn-fe processes each commit in two stages: first decide on the
correct content for all paths and export the relevant blobs, then
export a commit with the result.
But we can keep less state and simplify svn-fe a great deal by
exporting the commit in one step: use 'inline' blobs for each path and
remember nothing. This way, the repo_tree structure could be
eliminated, and we would get support for incremental imports 'for
free'.
Reorganize handle_node along these lines. This is just a code
cleanup; the changes in repo_tree and handle_revision will come later.

vcs-svn: introduce repo_read_path to check the content at a path
The repo_tree structure remembers, for each path in each revision, a
mode (regular file, executable, symlink, or directory) and content
(blob mark or directory structure). Maintaining a second copy of all
this information when it's already in the target repository is
wasteful, it does not persist between svn-fe invocations, and most
importantly, there is no convenient way to transfer it from one
machine to another. So it would be nice to get rid of it.
As a first step, let's change the repo_tree API to match fast-import's
read commands more closely. Currently to read the mode for a path,
one uses
repo_modify_path(path, new_mode, new_content);
which changes the mode and content as a side effect. There is no
function to read the content at a path; add one.

It can sometimes be useful to write information temporarily to file,
to read back later. These functions allow a program to use the
line_buffer facilities when doing so.
It works like this:
1. find a unique filename with buffer_tmpfile_init.
2. rewind with buffer_tmpfile_rewind. This returns a stdio
handle for writing.
3. when finished writing, declare so with
buffer_tmpfile_prepare_to_read. The return value indicates
how many bytes were written.
4. read whatever portion of the file is needed.
5. if finished, remove the temporary file with buffer_deinit.
otherwise, go back to step 2,
The svn support would use this to buffer the postimage from delta
application until the length is known and fast-import can receive
the resulting blob.

buffer_read_char can be used in place of buffer_read_string(1) to
avoid consuming valuable static buffer space. The delta applier will
use this to read variable-length integers one byte at a time.
Underneath, it is fgetc, wrapped so the line_buffer library can
maintain its role as gatekeeper of input.
Later it might be worth checking if fgetc_unlocked is faster ---
most line_buffer functions are not thread-safe anyway.

buffer_read_string works well for non line-oriented input except for
one problem: it does not tell the caller how many bytes were actually
written. This means that unless one is very careful about checking
for errors (and eof) the calling program cannot tell the difference
between the string "foo" followed by an early end of file and the
string "foo\0bar\0baz".
So introduce a variant that reports the length, too, a thinner wrapper
around strbuf_fread. Its result is written to a strbuf so the caller
does not need to keep track of the number of bytes read.

POSIX makes the behavior of read(2) from a pipe fairly clear: a read
from an empty pipe will block until there is data available and any
other read will not block, prefering to return a partial result.
Likewise, fread(3) and fgets(3) are clearly specified to act as
though implemented by calling fgetc(3) in a simple loop. But the
buffering behavior of fgetc is less clear.
Luckily, no sane platform is going to implement fgetc by calling the
equivalent of read(2) more than once. fgetc has to be able to
return without filling its buffer to preserve errno when errors are
encountered anyway. So let's assume the simpler behavior (trust) but
add some tests to catch insane platforms that violate that when they
come (verify).
First check that fread can handle a 0-length read from an empty fifo.
Because open(O_RDONLY) blocks until the writing end is open, open the
writing end of the fifo in advance in a subshell.
Next try short inputs from a pipe that is not filled all the way.
Lastly (two tests) try very large inputs from a pipe that will not fit
in the relevant buffers. The first of these tests reads a little
more than 8192 bytes, which is BUFSIZ (the size of stdio's buffers)
on this Linux machine. The second reads a little over 64 KiB (the
pipe capacity on Linux) and is not run unless requested by setting
the GIT_REMOTE_SVN_TEST_BIG_FILES environment variable.

vcs-svn: teach line_buffer to handle multiple input files
Collect the line_buffer state in a newly public line_buffer struct.
Callers can use multiple line_buffers to manage input from multiple

svn-fe's delta applier will use this to stream a delta from svnrdump

okay. It is easier to find lingering examples of nonreentrant code by

vcs-svn: replace buffer_read_string memory pool with a strbuf
obj_pool is inherently global and does not use the standard growing
factor alloc_nr, which makes it feel out of place in the git codebase.
Plus it is overkill for this application: all that is needed is a
buffer that can grow between requests to accomodate larger strings.
Use a strbuf instead.
As a side effect, this improves the error handling: allocation
failures will result in a clean exit instead of segfaults. It would
be nice to add a test case (using ulimit or failmalloc) but that can

Lazy fast-import frontend authors that want to rely on the backend to
keep track of the content of the imported trees _almost_ have what
they need in the 'cat-blob' command (v1.7.4-rc0~30^2~3, 2010-11-28).
But it is not quite enough, since
(1) cat-blob can be used to retrieve the content of files, but
not their mode, and
(2) using cat-blob requires the frontend to keep track of a name
(mark number or object id) for each blob to be retrieved
Introduce an 'ls' command to complement cat-blob and take care of the
remaining needs. The 'ls' command finds what is at a given path
within a given tree-ish (tag, commit, or tree):
'ls' SP <dataref> SP <path> LF
or in fast-import's active commit:
'ls' SP <path> LF
The response is a single line sent through the cat-blob channel,
imitating ls-tree output. So for example:
The most interesting parts of the reply are the first word, which is
a 6-digit octal mode (regular file, executable, symlink, directory,
or submodule), and the part from the second space to the tab, which is
a <dataref> that can be used in later cat-blob, ls, and filemodify (M)
commands to refer to the content (blob, tree, or commit) at that path.
If there is nothing there, the response is "missing some/path".
The intent is for this command to be used to read files from the
active commit, so a frontend can apply patches to them, and to copy
files and directories from previous revisions.
For example, proposed updates to svn-fe use this command in place of
its internal representation of the repository directory structure.
This simplifies the frontend a great deal and means support for
resuming an import in a separate fast-import run (i.e., incremental
import) is basically free.

like C and C++.
In some cases, AC_LANG_PROGRAM is already used but not sufficiently
m4-quoted, so we just need to add another set of [quotes] to prevent
the autoconf warning from being triggered bogusly. Quoting all

Here is a 'feature' command for streams to use to require support for
the notemodify (N) command.
When the 'feature' facility was introduced (v1.7.0-rc0~95^2~4,

do not support rewinding history after a botched import.)

This does not make it clear that the format of each line is
<insn> <commit id> <explanatory text that will be printed>
but the reader will probably infer that from the automatically
generated pick examples above it.
What about the "exec" instruction? By analogy, I might imagine that
the format of that line is "exec <command> <explanatory text>", and
the "x <cmd>" hint does not address that question (at first I read it
as taking an argument <cmd> that is the name of a shell). Meanwhile,
the mention of <cmd> makes the hints harder to scan as a table.
So remove the <cmd> and add some words to remind the reader that
"exec" runs a command named by the rest of the line. To make room, it
is left to the manpage to explain that that command is run using
$SHELL and that nonzero status from that command will pause the
rebase.

fast-import: treat filemodify with empty tree as delete
Normal git processes do not allow one to build a tree with an empty
subtree entry without trying hard at it. This is in keeping with the
general UI philosophy: git tracks content, not empty directories.
v1.7.3-rc0~75^2 (2010-06-30) changed that by making it easy to include
an empty subtree in fast-import's active commit:
One can trigger this by reading an empty tree (for example, the tree
corresponding to an empty root commit) and trying to move it to a
subtree. It is better and more closely analogous to 'git read-tree
--prefix' to treat such commands as requests to remove the subtree.

rebase: give a better error message for bogus branch
When you give a non-existent branch to git-rebase, it spits
out the usage. This can be confusing, since you may
understand the usage just fine, but simply have made a
mistake in the branch name.
Before:
$ git rebase origin bogus
Usage: git rebase ...
After:
$ git rebase origin bogus
fatal: no such branch: bogus
Usage: git rebase ...

In the case of a ref/pathname conflict, checkout will
already do the right thing and checkout the ref. However,
for a non-existant ref, this has two advantages:
1. If a file with that pathname exists, rebase will
refresh the file from the index and then rebase the
current branch instead of producing an error.
2. If no such file exists, the error message using an
explicit "--" is better:
# before
$ git rebase -i origin bogus
error: pathspec 'bogus' did not match any file(s) known to git.
Could not checkout bogus
# after
$ git rebase -i origin bogus
fatal: invalid reference: bogus
Could not checkout bogus
The problems seem to be trigger-able only through "git
rebase -i", as regular git-rebase checks the validity of the
branch parameter as a ref very early on. However, it doesn't
hurt to be defensive.
