fetch: add --unshallow for turning shallow repo into... Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy Fri, 11 Jan 2013 09:05:46 +0000 (16:05 +0700)

fetch: add --unshallow for turning shallow repo into complete one

The user can do --depth=2147483647 (*) for restoring complete repo
now. But it's hard to remember. Any other numbers larger than the
longest commit chain in the repository would also do, but some
guessing may be involved. Make easy-to-remember --unshallow an alias
for --depth=2147483647.

Make upload-pack recognize this special number as infinite depth. The
effect is essentially the same as before, except that upload-pack is
more efficient because it does not have to traverse to the bottom
anymore.

The chance of a user actually wanting exactly 2147483647 commits
depth, not infinite, on a repository with a history that long, is
probably too small to consider. The client can learn to add or
subtract one commit to avoid the special treatment when that actually
happens.

(*) This is the largest positive number a 32-bit signed integer can
contain. JGit and older C Git store depth as "int" so both are OK
with this number. Dulwich does not support shallow clone.

git-remote-helpers.txt: document invocation before input format

In the distant past, the order things were documented was
'Invocation', 'Commands', 'Capabilities', ...

Then it was decided that before giving a list of Commands, there
should be an overall description of the 'Input format', which was
a wise decision. However, this description was put as the very
first thing, with the rationale that any implementor would want
to know that first.

However, it seems an implementor would actually first need to
know how the remote helper will be invoked, so moving
'Invocation' to the front again seems logical. Moreover, we now
don't switch from discussing the input format to the invocation
style and then back to input related stuff.

These tests themselves are properly protected by the GPG
prerequisite, but one of the set-up steps outside the
test_expect_success block unconditionally assumed that there is a
gpghome/ directory, which is not true if GPG is not being used.

It may be a good idea to move the whole set-up steps in the test but

Documentation: don't link to example mail addresses

Email addresses in documentation are converted into mailto: hyperlinks
in the HTML output and footnotes in man pages. This isn't desirable for
cases where the address is used as an example and is not valid.

Particularly annoying is the example "jane@laptop.(none)" which appears
in git-shortlog(1) as "jane@laptop[1].(none)", with note 1 saying:

1. jane@laptop
mailto:jane@laptop

Fix this by escaping these email addresses with a leading backslash, to
prevent Asciidoc expanding them as inline macros.

In the case of mailmap.txt, render the address monospaced so that it
matches the block examples surrounding that paragraph.

index-format.txt: clarify what is "invalid"

A cache-tree entry with a negative entry count is considered invalid
by the current Git; it records that we do not know the object name
of a tree that would result by writing the directory covered by the
cache-tree as a tree object.

Clarify that any entry with a negative entry count is invalid, but
the implementations must write -1 there. This way, we can later
decide to allow writers to use negative values other than -1 to
encode optional information on such invalidated entries without
harming interoperability; we do not know what will be encoded and
how, so we keep these other negative values as reserved for now.

contrib: update stats/mailmap script

This version changes quite a few things:

1. The original parsed the mailmap file itself, and it did
it wrong (it did not understand entries with an extra
email key).

Instead, this version uses git's "%aE" and "%aN"
formats to have git perform the mapping, meaning we do
not have to read .mailmap at all, but still operate on
the current state that git sees (and it also works
properly from subdirs).

2. The original would find multiple names for an email,
but not the other way around.

This version can do either or both. If we find multiple
emails for a name, the resolution is less obvious than
the other way around. However, it can still be a
starting point for a human to investigate.

3. The original would order only by count, not by recency.

This version can do either. Combined with showing the
counts, it can be easier to decide how to resolve.

4. This version shows similar entries in a blank-delimited
stanza, which makes it more clear which options you are
picking from.

each email was chosen by:

1. If the only difference is in the presence or absence
of accented characters, the accented form is chosen
(under the assumption that it is the natural spelling,
and accents are sometimes stripped in email).

2. Otherwise, the most commonly used name is chosen.

3. If all names are equally common, the most recently used name is

git-fast-import.txt: improve documentation for quoted paths

The documentation mentioned only newlines and double quotes as
characters needing escaping, but the backslash also needs it. Also, the
documentation was not clearly saying that double quotes around the file
name were required (double quotes in the examples could be interpreted as
part of the sentence, not part of the actual string).

t4049: refocus tests

The primary thing Linus's patch wanted to change was to make sure
that 0-line change appears for a mode-only change. Update the
first test to chmod a file that we can see in the output (limited
by --stat-count) to demonstrate it. Also make sure to use test_chmod
and compare the index and the tree, so that we can run this test
even on a filesystem without permission bits.

Later two tests are about fixes to separate issues that were
introduced and/or uncovered by Linus's patch as a side effect, but
the issues are not related to mode-only changes. Remove chmod from
the tests.

diff --stat: do not count "unmerged" entriesJunio C Hamano Tue, 27 Nov 2012 20:05:10 +0000 (12:05 -0800)

diff --stat: do not count "unmerged" entries

Even though we show a separate *UNMERGED* entry in the patch and
diffstat output (or in the --raw format, for that matter) in
addition to and separately from the diff against the specified stage
(defaulting to #2) for unmerged paths, they should not be counted in
the total number of files affected---that would lead to counting the
same path twice.

The separation done by the previous step makes this fix simple and
straightforward. Among the filepairs in diff_queue, paths that
weren't modified, and the extra "unmerged" entries do not count as
total number of files.

diff --stat: move the "total count" logic to the last... Junio C Hamano Tue, 27 Nov 2012 19:47:46 +0000 (11:47 -0800)

diff --stat: move the "total count" logic to the last loop

The diffstat generation logic, with --stat-count limit, is
implemented as three loops.

- The first counts the width necessary to show stats up to
specified number of entries, and notes up to how many entries in
the data we need to iterate to show the graph;

- The second iterates that many times to draw the graph, adjusts
the number of "total modified files", and counts the total
added/deleted lines for the part that was shown in the graph;

- The third iterates over the remainder and only does the part to
count "total added/deleted lines" and to adjust "total modified
files" without drawing anything.

Move the logic to count added/deleted lines and modified files from
the second loop to the third loop.

This incidentally fixes a bug. The third loop was not filtering
binary changes (counted in bytes) from the total added/deleted as it
should. The second loop implemented this correctly, so if a binary
change appeared earlier than the --stat-count cutoff, the code
counted number of added/deleted lines correctly, but if it appeared
beyond the cutoff, the number of lines would have mixed with the
byte count in the buggy third loop.

Completion must sort before using uniqMarc Khouzam Fri, 23 Nov 2012 14:02:22 +0000 (09:02 -0500)

Completion must sort before using uniq

The user can be presented with invalid completion results
when trying to complete a 'git checkout' command. This can happen
when using a branch name prefix that matches multiple remote branches.

For example, if available branches are:
master
remotes/GitHub/maint
remotes/GitHub/master
remotes/origin/maint
remotes/origin/master

When performing completion on 'git checkout ma' the user will be
given the choices:
maint
master

However, 'git checkout maint' will fail in this case, although
completion previously said 'maint' was valid. Furthermore, when
performing completion on 'git checkout mai', no choices will be
suggested. So, the user is first told that the branch name
'maint' is valid, but when trying to complete 'mai' into 'maint',
that completion is no longer valid.

The completion results should never propose 'maint' as a valid
branch name, since 'git checkout' will refuse it.

The reason for this bug is that the uniq program only
works with sorted input. The man page states
"uniq prints the unique lines in a sorted file".

When __git_refs uses the guess heuristic employed by checkout for
tracking branches it wants to consider remote branches but only if
the branch name is unique. To do that, it calls 'uniq -u'. However
the input given to 'uniq -u' is not sorted.

Therefore, in the above example, when dealing with 'git checkout ma',
"__git_refs '' 1" will find the following list:
master
maint
master
maint
master

which, when passed to 'uniq -u' will remain the same. Therefore
'maint' will be wrongly suggested as a valid option.

When dealing with 'git checkout mai', the list will be:
maint
maint

which happens to be sorted and will be emptied by 'uniq -u',
properly ignoring 'maint'.

A solution for preventing the completion script from suggesting
such invalid branch names is to first call 'sort' and then 'uniq -u'.

config: don't segfault when given --path with a missing value

When given a variable without a value, such as '[section] var' and
asking git-config to treat it as a path, git_config_pathname returns
an error and doesn't modify its output parameter. show_config assumes
that the call is always successful and sets a variable to indicate
that vptr should be freed. In case of an error however, trying to do
this will cause the program to be killed, as it's pointing to memory
in the stack.

Detect the error and return immediately to avoid freeing or accessing
the uninitialed memory in the stack.
