git mv: do not keep slash in `git mv dir non-existing... Johannes Schindelin Fri, 5 Aug 2016 14:41:12 +0000 (16:41 +0200)

git mv: do not keep slash in `git mv dir non-existing-dir/`

When calling `rename("dir", "non-existing-dir/")` on Linux, it silently
succeeds, stripping the trailing slash of the second argument.

This is all good and dandy but this behavior disagrees with the specs at

http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/rename.html

that state clearly regarding the 2nd parameter (called `new`):

If the `new` argument does not resolve to an existing directory
entry for a file of type directory and the `new` argument
contains at least one non- <slash> character and ends with one
or more trailing <slash> characters after all symbolic links
have been processed, `rename()` shall fail.

Of course, we would like `git mv dir non-existing-dir/` to succeed (and
rename the directory "dir" to "non-existing-dir"). Let's be extra
careful to remove the trailing slash in that case.

This lets t7001-mv.sh pass in Bash on Windows.

nedmalloc: work around overzealous GCC 6 warning

With GCC 6, the strdup() function is declared with the "nonnull"
attribute, stating that it is not allowed to pass a NULL value as
parameter.

In nedmalloc()'s reimplementation of strdup(), Postel's Law is heeded
and NULL parameters are handled gracefully. GCC 6 complains about that
now because it thinks that NULL cannot be passed to strdup() anyway.

Because the callers in this project of strdup() must be prepared to
call any implementation of strdup() supplied by the platform, so it
is pointless to pretend that it is OK to call it with NULL.

Remove the conditional based on NULL-ness of the input; this
squelches the warning. Check the return value of malloc() instead
to make sure we actually got the memory to write to.

See https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-6/porting_to.html for details.

trace: do not fall back to stderrJeff King Fri, 5 Aug 2016 07:58:38 +0000 (03:58 -0400)

trace: do not fall back to stderr

If the trace code cannot open a specified file, or does not
understand the contents of the GIT_TRACE variable, it falls
back to printing trace output to stderr.

This is an attempt to be helpful, but in practice it just
ends up annoying. The user was trying to get the output to
go somewhere else, so spewing it to stderr does not really
accomplish that. And as it's intended for debugging, they
can presumably re-run the command with their error
corrected.

So instead of falling back, this patch disables bogus trace
keys for the rest of the program, just as we do for write
errors. We can drop the "Defaulting to..." part of the error
message entirely; after seeing "cannot open '/foo'", the
user can assume that tracing is skipped.

write_or_die: drop write_or_whine_pipe()

This function has no callers, and is not likely to gain any
because it's confusing to use.

It unconditionally complains to stderr, but _doesn't_ die.
Yet any caller which wants a "gentle" write would generally
want to suppress the error message, because presumably
they're going to write a better one, and/or try the
operation again.

And the check_pipe() call leads to confusing behaviors. It
means we die for EPIPE, but not for other errors, which is
confusing and pointless.

On top of all that, it has unusual error return semantics,
which makes it easy for callers to get it wrong.

Let's drop the function, and if somebody ever needs to
resurrect something like it, they can fix these warts.

trace: disable key after write error

If we get a write error writing to a trace descriptor, the
error isn't likely to go away if we keep writing. Instead,
you'll just get the same error over and over. E.g., try:

GIT_TRACE_PACKET=42 git ls-remote >/dev/null

You don't really need to see:

warning: unable to write trace for GIT_TRACE_PACKET: Bad file descriptor

hundreds of times. We could fallback to tracing to stderr,
as we do in the error code-path for open(), but there's not
much point. If the user fed us a bogus descriptor, they're
probably better off fixing their invocation. And if they
didn't, and we saw a transient error (e.g., ENOSPC writing
to a file), it probably doesn't help anybody to have half of
the trace in a file, and half on stderr.

trace: correct variable name in write() error messageJeff King Wed, 3 Aug 2016 23:00:32 +0000 (19:00 -0400)

trace: correct variable name in write() error message

Our error message for write() always mentions GIT_TRACE,
even though we may be writing for a different variable
entirely. It's also not quite accurate to say "fd given by
GIT_TRACE environment variable", as we may hit this error
based on a filename the user put in the variable (we do
complain and switch to stderr if the file cannot be opened,
but it's still possible to hit a write() error on the
descriptor later).

So let's fix those things, and switch to our more usual
"unable to do X: Y" format for the error.

trace: cosmetic fixes for error messages

The error messages for the trace code are often multi-line;
the first line gets a nice "warning:", but the rest are
left-aligned. Let's give them an indentation to make sure
they stand out as a unit.

While we're here, let's also downcase the first letter of
each error (our usual style), and break up a long line of
advice (since we're already using multiple lines, one more
doesn't hurt).

We also replace "What does 'foo' for GIT_TRACE mean?". While
cute, it's probably a good idea to give more context, and
follow our usual styles. So it's now "unknown trace value
for 'GIT_TRACE': foo".

trace: use warning() for printing trace errorsJeff King Fri, 5 Aug 2016 07:56:00 +0000 (03:56 -0400)

trace: use warning() for printing trace errors

Right now we just fprintf() straight to stderr, which can
make the output hard to distinguish. It would be helpful to
give it one of our usual prefixes like "error:", "warning:",
etc.

It doesn't make sense to use error() here, as the trace code
is "optional" debugging code. If something goes wrong, we
should warn the user, but saying "error" implies the actual
git operation had a problem. So warning() is the only sane
choice.

Note that this does end up calling warn_routine() to do the
formatting. This is probably a good thing, since they are
clearly trying to hook messages before they make it to
stderr. However, it also means that in theory somebody who
tries to trace from their warn_routine() could cause a loop.
This seems rather unlikely in practice (we've never even
overridden the default warn_builtin routine before, and
recent discussions to do so would just install a noop
routine).

Allowing PAGER_ENV to be set at build-time allows us to move
pager-specific knowledge out of our build. This allows us to
set a better default for FreeBSD more(1), which pretends not to
understand ANSI color escapes if the MORE environment variable

trace: stop using write_or_whine_pipe()Jeff King Wed, 3 Aug 2016 22:58:00 +0000 (18:58 -0400)

trace: stop using write_or_whine_pipe()

The write_or_whine_pipe function does two things:

1. it checks for EPIPE and converts it into a signal death

2. it prints a message to stderr on error

The first thing does not help us, and actively hurts.
Generally we would simply die from SIGPIPE in this case,
unless somebody has taken the time to ignore SIGPIPE for the
whole process. And if they _did_ do that, it seems rather
silly for the trace code, which otherwise takes pains to
continue even in the face of errors (e.g., by not using
write_or_die!), to take down the whole process for one
specific type of error.

Nor does the second thing help us; it just makes it harder
to write our error message, because we have to feed bits of
it as an argument to write_or_whine_pipe(). Translators
never get to see the full message, and it's hard for us to
customize it.

Let's switch to just using write_in_full() and writing our
own error string. For now, the error is identical to what
write_or_whine_pipe() would say, but now that it's more
under our control, we can improve it in future patches.

t5533: make it pass on case-sensitive filesystems

The newly-added test case wants to commit a file "c.t" (note the lower
case) when a previous test case already committed a file "C.t". This
confuses Git to the point that it thinks "c.t" was not staged when "git
add c.t" was called.

Simply make the naming of the test commits consistent with the previous
test cases: use upper-case, and advance in the alphabet.

This came up in local work to rebase the Windows-specific patches to the
current `next` branch. An identical fix was suggested by John Keeping.

t7063: work around FreeBSD's lazy mtime update featureNguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy Wed, 3 Aug 2016 17:45:22 +0000 (19:45 +0200)

t7063: work around FreeBSD's lazy mtime update feature

Let's start with the commit message of [1] from freebsd.git [2]

Sync timestamp changes for inodes of special files to disk as late
as possible (when the inode is reclaimed). Temporarily only do
this if option UFS_LAZYMOD configured and softupdates aren't
enabled. UFS_LAZYMOD is intentionally left out of
/sys/conf/options.

This is mainly to avoid almost useless disk i/o on battery powered
machines. It's silly to write to disk (on the next sync or when
the inode becomes inactive) just because someone hit a key or
something wrote to the screen or /dev/null.

PR: 5577 [3]

The short version of that, in the context of t7063, is that when a
directory is updated, its mtime may be updated later, not
immediately. This can be shown with a simple command sequence

date; sleep 1; touch abc; rm abc; sleep 10; ls -lTd .

One would expect that the date shown in `ls` would be one second from
`date`, but it's 10 seconds later. If we put another `ls -lTd .` in
front of `sleep 10`, then the date of the last `ls` comes as
expected. The first `ls` somehow forces mtime to be updated.

t7063 is really sensitive to directory mtime. When mtime is too "new",
git code suspects racy timestamps and will not trigger the shortcut in
untracked cache, in t7063.24 and eventually be detected in t7063.27

We have two options thanks to this special FreeBSD feature:

1) Stop supporting untracked cache on FreeBSD. Skip t7063 entirely
when running on FreeBSD

2) Work around this problem (using the same 'ls' trick) and continue
to support untracked cache on FreeBSD

I initially wanted to go with 1) because I didn't know the exact
nature of this feature and feared that it would make untracked cache
work unreliably, using the cached version when it should not.

Since the behavior of this thing is clearer now. The picture is not
that bad. If this indeed happens often, untracked cache would assume
racy condition more often and _fall back_ to non-untracked cache code
paths. Which means it may be less effective, but it will not show
wrong things.

This patch goes with option 2.

PS. For those who want to look further in FreeBSD source code, this
flag is now called IN_LAZYMOD. I can see it's effective in ext2 and
ufs. zfs is not affected.

submodule update: allow '.' for branch valueStefan Beller Wed, 3 Aug 2016 20:44:04 +0000 (13:44 -0700)

submodule update: allow '.' for branch value

Gerrit has a "superproject subscription" feature[1], that triggers a
commit in a superproject that is subscribed to its submodules.
Conceptually this Gerrit feature can be done on the client side with
Git via (except for raciness, error handling etc):

while [ true ]; do
git -C <superproject> submodule update --remote --force
git -C <superproject> commit -a -m "Update submodules"
git -C <superproject> push
done

for each branch in the superproject. To ease the configuration in Gerrit
a special value of "." has been introduced for the submodule.<name>.branch
to mean the same branch as the superproject[2], such that you can create a
new branch on both superproject and the submodule and this feature
continues to work on that new branch.

Now we find projects in the wild with such a .gitmodules file.
The .gitmodules used in these Gerrit projects do not conform
to Gits understanding of how .gitmodules should look like.
This teaches Git to deal gracefully with this syntax as well.

The redefinition of "." does no harm to existing projects unaware of
this change, as "." is an invalid branch name in Git, so we do not
expect such projects to exist.

There is an optimization used in "git diff $treeA $treeB" to borrow
an already checked-out copy in the working tree when it is known to
be the same as the blob being compared, expecting that open/mmap of
such a file is faster than reading it from the object store, which
involves inflating and applying delta. This however kicked in even
when the checked-out copy needs to go through the convert-to-git
conversion (including the clean filter), which defeats the whole
point of the optimization. The optimization has been disabled when
the conversion is necessary.

t4130: work around Windows limitationJohannes Sixt Wed, 3 Aug 2016 06:15:03 +0000 (08:15 +0200)

t4130: work around Windows limitation

On Windows, it is already pretty expensive to try to recreate the stat()
data that Git assumes is cheap to obtain. To make things halfway decent
in performance, we even have to skip emulating the inode and to
determine the number of hard links.

This is not a huge problem, usually, as either the size or the mtime or
the ctime are tell-tale enough to say when a file has changed, and even
if not, those changes are typically made after the index file was
written, triggering a rehashing of the files' contents.

The t4130-apply-criss-cross-rename test case, however, requires the
inode to determine that files of equal size were swapped, as renaming
files does not update their mtime. Every once in a while, t4130 fails
on Windows because of this missing piece.

Equal file sizes are not crucial for the test cases, however. Hence,
generate files with different sizes so that there is some property that
the swapped files can be discovered reliably even on Windows.

hashmap: clarify that hashmap_entry can safely be discarded

left the reader wondering if it can safely be discarded when it no
longer is necessary. If the hashmap_entry structure had references
to external resources such as allocated memory or an open file
descriptor, merely free(3)ing the containing structure (when the
caller's structure is on the heap) or letting it go out of scope
(when it is on the stack) would end up leaking the external
resource.

Document that there is no need for hashmap_entry_clear() that
corresponds to hashmap_entry_init() to give the API users a little

am: reset cached ident date for each patchJeff King Mon, 1 Aug 2016 19:37:00 +0000 (15:37 -0400)

am: reset cached ident date for each patch

When we compute the date to go in author/committer lines of
commits, or tagger lines of tags, we get the current date
once and then cache it for the rest of the program. This is
a good thing in some cases, like "git commit", because it
means we do not racily assign different times to the
author/committer fields of a single commit object.

But as more programs start to make many commits in a single
process (e.g., the recently builtin "git am"), it means that
you'll get long strings of commits with identical committer
timestamps (whereas before, we invoked "git commit" many
times and got true timestamps).

This patch addresses it by letting callers reset the cached
time, which means they'll get a fresh time on their next
call to git_committer_info() or git_author_info(). The first
caller to do so is "git am", which resets the time for each
patch it applies.

It would be nice if we could just do this automatically
before filling in the ident fields of commit and tag
objects. Unfortunately, it's hard to know where a particular
logical operation begins and ends.

For instance, if commit_tree_extended() were to call
reset_ident_date() before getting the committer/author
ident, that doesn't quite work; sometimes the author info is
passed in to us as a parameter, and it may or may not have
come from a previous call to ident_default_date(). So in
those cases, we lose the property that the committer and the
author timestamp always match.

You could similarly put a date-reset at the end of
commit_tree_extended(). That actually works in the current
code base, but it's fragile. It makes the assumption that
after commit_tree_extended() finishes, the caller has no
other operations that would logically want to fall into the
same timestamp.

So instead we provide the tool to easily do the reset, and
let the high-level callers use it to annotate their own
logical operations.

There's no automated test, because it would be inherently
racy (it depends on whether the program takes multiple
seconds to run). But you can see the effect with something
like:

# make a fake 100-patch series
top=$(git rev-parse HEAD)
bottom=$(git rev-list --first-parent -100 HEAD | tail -n 1)
git log --format=email --reverse --first-parent \
--binary -m -p $bottom..$top >patch

# now apply it; this presumably takes multiple seconds
git checkout --detach $bottom
git am <patch

# now count the number of distinct committer times;
# prior to this patch, there would only be one, but
# now we'd typically see several.
git log --format=%ct $bottom.. | sort -u

t3700: remove unwanted leftover files before running new tests

When an earlier test that has prerequisite is skipped, files
used by later tests may be left in the working tree in an
unexpected state. For example, a test runs this sequence:

echo foo >xfoo1 && chmod 755 xfoo1

to create an executable file xfoo1, expecting that xfoo1
does not exist before it runs in the test sequence.
However, the absence of this file depends on "git reset
--hard" done in an earlier test, that is skipped when SANITY
prerequisite is not met, and worse yet, xfoo1 originally is
created as a symbolic link, which means the chmod does not
affect the modes of xfoo1 as this test expects.

Fix this by starting the test with "rm -f xfoo1" to make
sure the file is created from scratch, and do the same to
other similar tests.

merge-recursive: flush output buffer even when erroring outJohannes Schindelin Mon, 1 Aug 2016 11:44:57 +0000 (13:44 +0200)

merge-recursive: flush output buffer even when erroring out

Ever since 66a155b (Enable output buffering in merge-recursive.,
2007-01-14), we had a problem: When the merge failed in a fatal way, all
regular output was swallowed because we called die() and did not get a
chance to drain the output buffers.

To fix this, several modifications were necessary:

- we needed to stop die()ing, to give callers a chance to do something
when an error occurred (in this case, flush the output buffers),

- we needed to delay printing the error message so that the caller can
print the buffered output before that, and

- we needed to make sure that the output buffers are flushed even when
the return value indicates an error.

The first two changes were introduced through earlier commits in this
patch series, and this commit addresses the third one.

merge_trees(): ensure that the callers release output... Johannes Schindelin Mon, 1 Aug 2016 11:44:53 +0000 (13:44 +0200)

merge_trees(): ensure that the callers release output buffer

The recursive merge machinery accumulates its output in an output
buffer, to be flushed at the end of merge_recursive(). At this point,
we forgot to release the output buffer.

When calling merge_trees() (i.e. the non-recursive part of the recursive
merge) directly, the output buffer is never flushed because the caller
may be merge_recursive() which wants to flush the output itself.

For the same reason, merge_trees() cannot release the output buffer: it
may still be needed.

Forgetting to release the output buffer did not matter much when running
git-checkout, or git-merge-recursive, because we exited after the
operation anyway. Ever since cherry-pick learned to pick a commit range,
however, this memory leak had the potential of becoming a problem.

merge-recursive: offer an option to retain the output... Johannes Schindelin Mon, 1 Aug 2016 11:44:50 +0000 (13:44 +0200)

merge-recursive: offer an option to retain the output in 'obuf'

Since 66a155b (Enable output buffering in merge-recursive., 2007-01-14),
we already accumulate the output in a buffer. The idea was to avoid
interfering with the progress output that goes to stderr, which is
unbuffered, when we write to stdout, which is buffered.

We extend that buffering to allow the caller to handle the output
(possibly suppressing it). This will help us when extending the
sequencer to do rebase -i's brunt work: it does not want the picks to
print anything by default but instead determine itself whether to print
the output or not.

Note that we also redirect the error messages into the output buffer
when the caller asked not to flush the output buffer, for two reasons:
1) to retain the correct output order, and 2) to allow the caller to
suppress *all* output.

merge-recursive: write the commit title in one goJohannes Schindelin Mon, 1 Aug 2016 11:44:45 +0000 (13:44 +0200)

merge-recursive: write the commit title in one go

In 66a155b (Enable output buffering in merge-recursive., 2007-01-14), we
changed the code such that it prints the output in one go, to avoid
interfering with the progress output.

Let's make sure that the same holds true when outputting the commit
title: previously, we used several printf() statements to stdout and
assumed that stdout's buffer is large enough to hold the entire
commit title.

Apart from making that speculation unnecessary, we change the code to
add the message to the output buffer before flushing for another reason:
the next commit will introduce a new level of output buffering, where
the caller can request the output not to be flushed, but to be retained
for further processing.

This latter feature will be needed when teaching the sequencer to do
rebase -i's brunt work: it wants to control the output of the
cherry-picks (i.e. recursive merges).

merge-recursive: flush output buffer before printing... Johannes Schindelin Mon, 1 Aug 2016 11:44:37 +0000 (13:44 +0200)

merge-recursive: flush output buffer before printing error messages

The data structure passed to the recursive merge machinery has a feature
where the caller can ask for the output to be buffered into a strbuf, by
setting the field 'buffer_output'.

Previously, we died without flushing, losing accumulated output. With
this patch, we show the output first, and only then print the error
message.

Currently, the only user of that buffering is merge_recursive() itself,
to avoid the progress output to interfere.

In the next patches, we will introduce a new buffer_output mode that
forces merge_recursive() to retain the output buffer for further
processing by the caller. If the caller asked for that, we will then
also write the error messages into the output buffer. This is necessary
to give the caller more control not only how to react in case of errors
but also control how/if to display the error messages.

pack-objects: compute local/ignore_pack_keep earlyJeff King Fri, 29 Jul 2016 04:11:31 +0000 (00:11 -0400)

pack-objects: compute local/ignore_pack_keep early

In want_object_in_pack(), we can exit early from our loop if
neither "local" nor "ignore_pack_keep" are set. If they are,
however, we must examine each pack to see if it has the
object and is non-local or has a ".keep".

It's quite common for there to be no non-local or .keep
packs at all, in which case we know ahead of time that
looking further will be pointless. We can pre-compute this
by simply iterating over the list of packs ahead of time,
and dropping the flags if there are no packs that could
match.

Another similar strategy would be to modify the loop in
want_object_in_pack() to notice that we have already found
the object once, and that we are looping only to check for
"local" and "keep" attributes. If a pack has neither of
those, we can skip the call to find_pack_entry_one(), which
is the expensive part of the loop.

This has two advantages:

- it isn't all-or-nothing; we still get some improvement
when there's a small number of kept or non-local packs,
and a large number of non-kept local packs

- it eliminates any possible race where we add new
non-local or kept packs after our initial scan. In
practice, I don't think this race matters; we already
cache the packed_git information, so somebody who adds a
new pack or .keep file after we've started will not be
noticed at all, unless we happen to need to call
reprepare_packed_git() because a lookup fails.

In other words, we're already racy, and the race is not
a big deal (losing the race means we might include an
object in the pack that would not otherwise be, which is
an acceptable outcome).

However, it also has a disadvantage: we still loop over the
rest of the packs for each object to check their flags. This
is much less expensive than doing the object lookup, but
still not free. So if we wanted to implement that strategy
to cover the non-all-or-nothing cases, we could do so in
addition to this one (so you get the most speedup in the
all-or-nothing case, and the best we can do in the other
cases). But given that the all-or-nothing case is likely the
most common, it is probably not worth the trouble, and we
can revisit this later if evidence points otherwise.
