Improve error handling when parsing dirstat parametersJohan Herland Fri, 29 Apr 2011 09:36:22 +0000 (11:36 +0200)

Improve error handling when parsing dirstat parameters

When encountering errors or unknown tokens while parsing parameters to the
--dirstat option, it makes sense to die() with an error message informing
the user of which parameter did not make sense. However, when parsing the
diff.dirstat config variable, we cannot simply die(), but should instead
(after warning the user) ignore the erroneous or unrecognized parameter.
After all, future Git versions might add more dirstat parameters, and
using two different Git versions on the same repo should not cripple the
older Git version just because of a parameter that is only understood by
a more recent Git version.

This patch fixes the issue by refactoring the dirstat parameter parsing
so that parse_dirstat_params() keeps on parsing parameters, even if an
earlier parameter was not recognized. When parsing has finished, it returns
zero if all parameters were successfully parsed, and non-zero if one or
more parameters were not recognized (with appropriate error messages
appended to the 'errmsg' argument).

The parse_dirstat_params() callers then decide (based on the return value
from parse_dirstat_params()) whether to warn and ignore (in case of
diff.dirstat), or to warn and die (in case of --dirstat).

The patch also adds a couple of tests verifying the correct behavior of
--dirstat and diff.dirstat in the face of unknown (possibly future) dirstat
parameters.

New --dirstat=lines mode, doing dirstat analysis based... Johan Herland Fri, 29 Apr 2011 09:36:21 +0000 (11:36 +0200)

New --dirstat=lines mode, doing dirstat analysis based on diffstat

This patch adds an alternative implementation of show_dirstat(), called
show_dirstat_by_line(), which uses the more expensive diffstat analysis
(as opposed to show_dirstat()'s own (relatively inexpensive) analysis)
to derive the numbers from which the --dirstat output is computed.

The alternative implementation is controlled by the new "lines" parameter
to the --dirstat option (or the diff.dirstat config variable).

For binary files, the diffstat analysis counts bytes instead of lines,
so to prevent binary files from dominating the dirstat results, the
byte counts for binary files are divided by 64 before being compared to
their textual/line-based counterparts. This is a stupid and ugly - but
very cheap - heuristic.

In linux-2.6.git, running the three different --dirstat modes:

time git diff v2.6.20..v2.6.30 --dirstat=changes > /dev/null
vs.
time git diff v2.6.20..v2.6.30 --dirstat=lines > /dev/null
vs.
time git diff v2.6.20..v2.6.30 --dirstat=files > /dev/null

yields the following average runtimes on my machine:

- "changes" (default): ~6.0 s
- "lines": ~9.6 s
- "files": ~0.1 s

So, as expected, there's a considerable performance hit (~60%) by going
through the full diffstat analysis as compared to the default "changes"
analysis (obviously, "files" is much faster than both). As such, the
"lines" mode is probably only useful if you really need the --dirstat
numbers to be consistent with the numbers returned from the other
--*stat options.

The patch also includes documentation and tests for the new dirstat mode.

Add config variable for specifying default --dirstat... Johan Herland Fri, 29 Apr 2011 09:36:19 +0000 (11:36 +0200)

Add config variable for specifying default --dirstat behavior

The new diff.dirstat config variable takes the same arguments as
'--dirstat=<args>', and specifies the default arguments for --dirstat.
The config is obviously overridden by --dirstat arguments passed on the
command line.

When not specified, the --dirstat defaults are 'changes,noncumulative,3'.

The patch also adds several tests verifying the interaction between the
diff.dirstat config variable, and the --dirstat command line option.

Refactor --dirstat parsing; deprecate --cumulative... Johan Herland Fri, 29 Apr 2011 09:36:18 +0000 (11:36 +0200)

Refactor --dirstat parsing; deprecate --cumulative and --dirstat-by-file

Instead of having multiple interconnected dirstat-related options, teach
the --dirstat option itself to accept all behavior modifiers as parameters.

- Preserve the current --dirstat=<limit> (where <limit> is an integer
specifying a cut-off percentage)
- Add --dirstat=cumulative, replacing --cumulative
- Add --dirstat=files, replacing --dirstat-by-file
- Also add --dirstat=changes and --dirstat=noncumulative for specifying the
current default behavior. These allow the user to reset other --dirstat
parameters (e.g. 'cumulative' and 'files') occuring earlier on the
command line.

The deprecated options (--cumulative and --dirstat-by-file) are still
functional, although they have been removed from the documentation.

Allow multiple parameters to be separated by commas, e.g.:
--dirstat=files,10,cumulative

Update the documentation accordingly, and add testcases verifying the
behavior of the new syntax.

Make --dirstat=0 output directories that contribute... Johan Herland Fri, 29 Apr 2011 09:36:17 +0000 (11:36 +0200)

Make --dirstat=0 output directories that contribute < 0.1% of changes

The expected output from --dirstat=0, is to include any directory with
changes, even if those changes contribute a minuscule portion of the total
changes. However, currently, directories that contribute less than 0.1% are
not included, since their 'permille' value is 0, and there is an
'if (permille)' check in gather_dirstat() that causes them to be ignored.

This test is obviously intended to exclude directories that contribute no
changes whatsoever, but in this case, it hits too broadly. The correct
check is against 'this_dir' from which the permille is calculated. Only if
this value is 0 does the directory truly contribute no changes, and should
be skipped from the output.

This patches fixes this issue, and updates corresponding testcases to
expect the new behvaior.

Add several testcases for --dirstat and friendsJohan Herland Fri, 29 Apr 2011 09:36:16 +0000 (11:36 +0200)

Add several testcases for --dirstat and friends

Currently, t4013 is the only selftest that exercises the --dirstat machinery,
but it only does a superficial verification of --dirstat's output.

This patch adds a new selftest - t4047-diff-dirstat.sh - which prepares a
commit containing:
- unchanged files, changed files and files with rearranged lines
- copied files, moved files, and unmoved files

It then verifies the correct dirstat output for that commit in the following
dirstat modes:
- --dirstat
- -X
- --dirstat=0
- -X0
- --cumulative
- --dirstat-by-file
- (plus combinations of the above)

Each of the above tests are also run with:
- no rename detection
- rename detection (-M)
- expensive copy detection (-C -C)

which is caused by not passing the target-specific additions to

In order to fix the problem, we define a new sparse target which
depends on a set of non-existent "sparse object" files (*.sp)
which correspond to the set of C source files. In addition to the
new target, we also provide a new pattern rule for "creating" the
sparse object files from the source files by running cgcc. This
allows us to add '*.sp' to the rules setting the target-specific
EXTRA_CPPFLAGS variable, which is then included in the new pattern
rule to run cgcc.

Also, we change the 'check' target to re-direct the user to the
new sparse target.

date: avoid "X years, 12 months" in relative dates

When relative dates are more than about a year ago, we start
writing them as "Y years, M months". At the point where we
calculate Y and M, we have the time delta specified as a
number of days. We calculate these integers as:

Y = days / 365
M = (days % 365 + 15) / 30

This rounds days in the latter half of a month up to the
nearest month, so that day 16 is "1 month" (or day 381 is "1
year, 1 month").

We don't round the year at all, though, meaning we can end
up with "1 year, 12 months", which is silly; it should just
be "2 years".

Implement this differently with months of size

onemonth = 365/12

so that

totalmonths = (long)( (days + onemonth/2)/onemonth )
years = totalmonths / 12
months = totalmonths % 12

In order to do this without floats, we write the first formula as

totalmonths = (days*12*2 + 365) / (365*2)

archive: document limitation of tar.umask config setting

The local value of the config variable tar.umask is not passed to the
other side with --remote. We may want to change that, but for now just
document this fact.

t3306,t5304: avoid clock skew issues

On systems where the local time and file modification time may be out of
sync (e.g. test directory on NFS) t3306 and t5305 can fail because prune
compares times such as "now" (client time) with file modification times
(server times for remote file systems). I.e., these are spurious test
failures.

Avoid this by setting the relevant modification times to the local time.

Noticed on a system with as little as 2s time skew.

config: support values longer than 1023 bytes

parse_value in config.c has a static buffer of 1024 bytes that it
parse the value into. This can sometimes be a problem when a
config file contains very long values.

It's particularly amusing that git-config already is able to write
such files, so it should probably be able to read them as well.

Teach --dirstat not to completely ignore rearranged... Johan Herland Sun, 10 Apr 2011 22:48:52 +0000 (00:48 +0200)

Teach --dirstat not to completely ignore rearranged lines within a file

Currently, the --dirstat analysis ignores when lines within a file are
rearranged, because the "damage" calculated by show_dirstat() is 0.
However, if the object name has changed, we already know that there is
some damage, and it is unintuitive to claim there is _no_ damage.

Teach show_dirstat() to assign a minimum amount of damage (== 1) to
entries for which the analysis otherwise yields zero damage, to still
represent that these files are changed, instead of saying that there
is no change.

Also, skip --dirstat analysis when the object names are the same (e.g. for
a pure file rename).

--dirstat-by-file: Make it faster and more correctJohan Herland Sun, 10 Apr 2011 22:48:51 +0000 (00:48 +0200)

--dirstat-by-file: Make it faster and more correct

Currently, when using --dirstat-by-file, it first does the full --dirstat
analysis (using diffcore_count_changes()), and then resets 'damage' to 1,
if any damage was found by diffcore_count_changes().

But --dirstat-by-file is not interested in the file damage per se. It only
cares if the file changed at all. In that sense it only cares if the blob
object for a file has changed. We therefore only need to compare the
object names of each file pair in the diff queue and we can skip the
entire --dirstat analysis and simply set 'damage' to 1 for each entry
where the object name has changed.

This makes --dirstat-by-file faster, and also bypasses --dirstat's practice
of ignoring rearranged lines within a file.

The patch also contains an added testcase verifying that --dirstat-by-file
now detects changes that only rearrange lines within a file.

git-svn: Add a svn-remote.<name>.pushurl config key

Similar to the 'remote.<name>.pushurl' config key for git remotes,
'pushurl' is designed to be used in cases where 'url' points to an SVN
repository via a read-only transport, to provide an alternate
read/write transport. It is assumed that both keys point to the same
repository.

The 'pushurl' key is distinct from the 'commiturl' key in that
'commiturl' is a full svn path while 'pushurl' (like 'url') is a base
path. 'commiturl' takes precendece over 'pushurl' in cases where
either might be used.

The 'pushurl' is used by git-svn's dcommit and branch commands.

upload-pack: start pack-objects before async rev-listJeff King Wed, 6 Apr 2011 21:33:33 +0000 (17:33 -0400)

upload-pack: start pack-objects before async rev-list

In a pthread-enabled version of upload-pack, there's a race condition
that can cause a deadlock on the fflush(NULL) we call from run-command.

What happens is this:

1. Upload-pack is informed we are doing a shallow clone.

2. We call start_async() to spawn a thread that will generate rev-list
results to feed to pack-objects. It gets a file descriptor to a
pipe which will eventually hook to pack-objects.

3. The rev-list thread uses fdopen to create a new output stream
around the fd we gave it, called pack_pipe.

4. The thread writes results to pack_pipe. Outside of our control,
libc is doing locking on the stream. We keep writing until the OS
pipe buffer is full, and then we block in write(), still holding
the lock.

5. The main thread now uses start_command to spawn pack-objects.
Before forking, it calls fflush(NULL) to flush every stdio output
buffer. It blocks trying to get the lock on pack_pipe.

And we have a deadlock. The thread will block until somebody starts
reading from the pipe. But nobody will read from the pipe until we
finish flushing to the pipe.

To fix this, we swap the start order: we start the
pack-objects reader first, and then the rev-list writer
after. Thus the problematic fflush(NULL) happens before we
even open the new file descriptor (and even if it didn't,
flushing should no longer block, as the reader at the end of
the pipe is now active).

stash: drop dirty worktree check on apply

Before we apply a stash, we make sure there are no changes
in the worktree that are not in the index. This check dates
back to the original git-stash.sh, and is presumably
intended to prevent changes in the working tree from being
accidentally lost during the merge.

However, this check has two problems:

1. It is overly restrictive. If my stash changes only file
"foo", but "bar" is dirty in the working tree, it will
prevent us from applying the stash.

2. It is redundant. We don't touch the working tree at all
until we actually call merge-recursive. But it has its
own (much more accurate) checks to avoid losing working
tree data, and will abort the merge with a nicer
message telling us which paths were problems.

So we can simply drop the check entirely.

Teach core.bigfilethreashold to pack-objects

The pack-objects command should take notice of the object file and
refrain from attempting to delta large ones, to be consistent with
the fast-import command.

blame: add --abbrev command line option and make it honor core.abbrev

If user sets config.abbrev option, use it as if --abbrev was given. This
is the default value and user can override different abbrev length by
specifying the --abbrev=N command line option.

stash: fix false positive in the invalid ref test.Jon Seymour Tue, 5 Apr 2011 23:21:13 +0000 (09:21 +1000)

stash: fix false positive in the invalid ref test.

Jeff King reported a problem with git stash apply incorrectly
applying an invalid stash reference.

There is an existing test that should have caught this, but
the test itself was broken, resulting in a false positive.

stash: fix accidental apply of non-existent stashesJeff King Tue, 5 Apr 2011 21:20:25 +0000 (17:20 -0400)

stash: fix accidental apply of non-existent stashes

Once upon a time, "git rev-parse ref@{9999999}" did not
generate an error. Therefore when we got an invalid stash
reference in "stash apply", we could end up not noticing
until quite late. Commit b0f0ecd (detached-stash: work
around git rev-parse failure to detect bad log refs,
2010-08-21) handled this by checking for the "Log for stash
has only %d entries" warning on stderr when we validated the
ref.

A few days later, e6eedc3 (rev-parse: exit with non-zero
status if ref@{n} is not valid., 2010-08-24) fixed the
original issue. That made the extra stderr test superfluous,
but also introduced a new bug. Now the early call to:

git rev-parse --symbolic "$@"

fails, but we don't notice the exit code. Worse, its empty
output means we think the user didn't provide us a ref, and
we try to apply stash@{0}.

This patch checks the rev-parse exit code and fails early in
the revision parsing process. We can also get rid of the
stderr test; as a bonus, this means that "stash apply" can
now run under GIT_TRACE=1 properly.
