pack-objects: remove SP at the end of usage string

These spaces immediately before the end of lines are unnecessary.

While at it, instead of using a single string literal with backslashes
at end of each line, split the lines into individual string literals
and tell the compiler to concatenate them.

Update the usage bundle string.

"git bundle -h" gives a single long line that is hard to read. Rewrite it
into a multi-line format similar to the one used by other commands, e.g
"git stash -h".

fetch: Speed up fetch by rewriting find_non_local_tagsJulian Phillips Thu, 17 Sep 2009 07:33:19 +0000 (08:33 +0100)

fetch: Speed up fetch by rewriting find_non_local_tags

When trying to get a list of remote tags to see if we need to fetch
any we were doing a linear search for the matching tag ref for the
tag^{} commit entries. This proves to be incredibly slow for large
numbers of tags. Rewrite the function so that we build up a
string_list of refs to fetch and then process that instead.

As an extreme example, for a repository with 50000 tags (and just a
single commit on a single branch), a fetch that does nothing goes from
~1m50s to ~4.1s.

If we do not read a password from the command line, and there are no

you added 96 blank lines, a non-blank line, and then 3 blank lines at the
end, only the last 3 lines should trigger the error, not the earlier 96

git-archive: infer output format from filename when unspecified

A command line

$ git archive -o my-v2.0.zip v2.0

almost certainly wants the output in zip format, even though it does not
specify any --format option.

When --format is not given, but output filename is, try to infer what
format is requested from the filename extension. Currently this code only
knows about '.zip'. When the format is unspecified and the filename does
not tell us, the output will be in 'tar' format as before.

Of course, an explicit --format will not trigger this guesswork.

A local clone without hardlinks copies all objects, including dangling
ones, to the new repository. Since the mtimes are renewed, those
dangling objects cannot be pruned by "git gc --prune", even if they
would have been old enough for pruning in the original repository.

Instead, preserve mtime during copy. "git gc --prune" will then work
in the clone just like it did in the original.

use write_str_in_full helper to avoid literal string lengths

In 2d14d65 (Use a clearer style to issue commands to remote helpers,
2009-09-03) I happened to notice two changes like this:

- write_in_full(helper->in, "list\n", 5);
+
+ strbuf_addstr(&buf, "list\n");
+ write_in_full(helper->in, buf.buf, buf.len);
+ strbuf_reset(&buf);

IMHO, it would be better to define a new function,

static inline ssize_t write_str_in_full(int fd, const char *str)
{
return write_in_full(fd, str, strlen(str));
}

and then use it like this:

- strbuf_addstr(&buf, "list\n");
- write_in_full(helper->in, buf.buf, buf.len);
- strbuf_reset(&buf);
+ write_str_in_full(helper->in, "list\n");

Thus not requiring the added allocation, and still avoiding
the maintenance risk of literal string lengths.
These days, compilers are good enough that strlen("literal")
imposes no run-time cost.

Transformed via this:

perl -pi -e \
's/write_in_full\((.*?), (".*?"), \d+\)/write_str_in_full($1, $2)/'\
$(git grep -l 'write_in_full.*"')

This message is designed to help new users understand what

gitk: Show diff of commits at end of compare-commits output

When comparing a string of commits, when we find two non-merge commits
that differ, we now write the two commits to files and diff the files.
This pulls out the logic for creating a temporary directory from
external_diff into a separate procedure so that the new diffcommits
procedure can use it.

Because the diff command returns an exit status of 1 when the files
differ, and Tcl treats that as an error, this adds catch {} around the
close statements in getblobdiffline.

At present this only removes the temporary files when gitk exits. It
should remove them when the diff is done.

merge-recursive: give less scary messages when merge... Junio C Hamano Tue, 8 Sep 2009 05:43:11 +0000 (22:43 -0700)

merge-recursive: give less scary messages when merge did not start

When unpack_trees() three-way merge logic is called from merge-recursive
and finds that local changes are going to be clobbered, its plumbing level
messages were given as errors first, and then the merge driver added even
more scary message "fatal: merging of trees <a long object name> and
<another long object name> failed".

This is most often encountered by new CVS/SVN migrants who are used to
start a merge from a dirty work tree. The saddest part is that the merge
refused to run to prevent _any_ damage from being done to your work tree
when these messages are given, but the messages look a lot more scarier
than the conflicted case where the user needs to resolve them.

Replace the plumbing level messages so that they talk about what it is
protecting the user from, and end the messages with "Aborting." so that it
becomes clear that the command did not do any harm.

The final "merging of trees failed" message is superfluous, unless you are
interested in debugging the merge-recursive itself. Squelch the current
die() message by default, but allow it to help people who debug git with
verbosity level 4 or greater.

Unless there is some bug, an inner merge that does not touch working tree
should not trigger any such error, so emit the current die() message when
we see an error return from it while running the inner merge, too. It
would also help people who debug git.

We could later add instructions on how to recover (i.e. "stash changes
away or commit on a side branch and retry") instead of the silent
exit(128) I have in this patch, and then use Peff's advice.* mechanism to
squelch it (e.g. "advice.mergeindirtytree"), but they are separate topics.

Earlier attempt to introduce only blank-at-eof gave them an escape hatch
to keep the old behaviour, but it is a regression until they explicitly
specify the new error class.

This introduces a blank-at-eol that only catches extra white space at the
end of line, and makes the traditional trailing-space a convenient synonym
to catch both blank-at-eol and blank-at-eof. This way, people who used
trailing-space continue to catch both classes of errors.

pack-objects: free preferred base memory after usage

When adding objects for preferred delta base, the content from tree
objects leading to given paths is kept in a cache. This has the
potential to grow significantly, especially with large directories as
the whole tree object content is loaded in memory, even if in practice
the number of those objects is limited to the 256 cache entries plus the
$window root tree objects. Still, that can't hurt freeing that up after
object enumeration is done, and before more memory is needed for delta

make shallow repository deepening more network efficient

First of all, I can't find any reason why thin pack generation is
explicitly disabled when dealing with a shallow repository. The
possible delta base objects are collected from the edge commits which
are always obtained through history walking with the same shallow refs
as the client, Therefore the client is always going to have those base
objects available. So let's remove that restriction.

Then we can make shallow repository deepening much more efficient by
using the remote's unshallowed commits as edge commits to get preferred
base objects for thin pack generation. On git.git, this makes the data
transfer for the deepening of a shallow repository from depth 1 to depth 2
around 134 KB instead of 3.68 MB.

apply --whitespace=warn/error: diagnose blank at EOF

"git apply" strips new blank lines at EOF under --whitespace=fix option,
but neigher --whitespace=warn nor --whitespace=error paid any attention to
these errors.

Introduce a new whitespace error class, blank-at-eof, to make the
whitespace error handling more consistent.

The patch adds a new "linenr" field to the struct fragment in order to
record which line the hunk started in the input file, but this is needed
solely for reporting purposes. The detection of this class of whitespace
errors cannot be done while parsing a patch like we do for all the other
classes of whitespace errors. It instead has to wait until we find where
to apply the hunk, but at that point, we do not have an access to the
original line number in the input file anymore, hence the new field.

Depending on your point of view, this may be a bugfix that makes warn and
error in line with fix. Or you could call it a new feature. The line
between them is somewhat fuzzy in this case.

Strictly speaking, triggering more errors than before is a change in
behaviour that is not backward compatible, even though the reason for the
change is because the code was not checking for an error that it should
have. People who do not want added blank lines at EOF to trigger an error
can disable the new error class.

blank lines at the end of itself, and if so checking if such a hunk
applies at the end of file. This patch addresses a bug in the logic to
implement the former (the previous one addressed a bug in the latter).

If the original ends with blank lines, often the patch hunk ends like
this:

@@ -l,5 +m,7 @@$
_context$
_context$
-deleted$
+$
+$
+$
_$
_$

where _ stands for SP and $ shows a end-of-line. This example patch adds
three trailing blank lines, but the code fails to notice it, because it
only pays attention to added blank lines at the very end of the hunk. In
this example, the three added blank lines do not appear textually at the
end in the patch, even though you can see that they are indeed added at
the end, if you rearrange the diff like this:

@@ -l,5 +m,7 @@$
_context$
_context$
-deleted$
_$
_$
+$
+$
+$

The fix is not to reset the number of (candidate) added blank lines at the
end when the loop sees a context line that is empty.

apply --whitespace=fix: fix handling of blank lines at the eof

b94f2ed (builtin-apply.c: make it more line oriented, 2008-01-26) broke
the logic used to detect if a hunk adds blank lines at the end of the
file. With the new code after that commit:

- img holds the contents of the file that the hunk is being applied to;

- preimage has the lines the hunk expects to be in img; and

- postimage has the lines the hunk wants to update the part in img that
corresponds to preimage with.

and we need to compare if the last line of preimage (not postimage)
matches the last line of img to see if the hunk applies at the end of the
file.

Use a clearer style to issue commands to remote helpersDaniel Barkalow Fri, 4 Sep 2009 02:13:51 +0000 (22:13 -0400)

Use a clearer style to issue commands to remote helpers

This style is overkill for some commands, but it's worthwhile to use
the same style to issue all commands, and it's useful to avoid
open-coding string lengths.

Make the "traditionally-supported" URLs a special caseDaniel Barkalow Fri, 4 Sep 2009 02:13:49 +0000 (22:13 -0400)

Make the "traditionally-supported" URLs a special case

Instead of trying to make http://, https://, and ftp:// URLs
indicative of some sort of pattern of transport helper usage, make
them a special case which runs the "curl" helper, and leave the
mechanism by which arbitrary helpers will be chosen entirely to future
work.
