git-pack-objects: do the delta search in reverse size order

Starting from big objects and going backwards means that we end up
picking a delta that goes from a bigger object to a smaller one. That's
advantageous for two reasons: the bigger object is likely the newer one
(since things tend to grow, rather than shrink), and doing a delete
tends to be smaller than doing an add.

So the deltas don't tend to be top-of-tree, and the packed end result is
just slightly smaller.

used up the single-entry window with the entry to be tested, and had no
chance of actually ever finding a delta).

file DF there the "rm -f" command complains that DF is not a

What we want to ensure is that there is no file DF/DF in this
case. Avoid getting ourselves confused by first checking if
there is a file, and only then try to remove it (and check for
failure from the "rm" command).

[PATCH] fix date parsing for GIT raw commit timestamp format.

Usually all of the match_xxx routines in date.c fill tm
structure assuming that the parsed string talks about local
time, and parse_date routine compensates for it by adjusting the
value with tz offset parsed out separately. However, this logic
does not work well when we feed GIT raw commit timestamp to it,
because what match_digits gets is already in GMT.

A good testcase is:

$ make test-date
$ ./test-date 'Fri Jun 24 16:55:27 2005 -0700' '1119657327 -0700'

These two timestamps represent the same time, but the second one
without the fix this commit introduces gives you 7 hours off.

could pack up your old history efficiently, but still have it available

git-rev-list: add option to list all objects (not just commits)

When you do

git-rev-list --objects $(git-rev-parse HEAD^..HEAD)

it now lists not only the "commit difference" between the parent of HEAD
and HEAD itself (which is normally just the parent, but in the case of a
merge will be all the newly merged commits), but also all the new tree
and blob objects that weren't in the original.

NOTE! It doesn't walk all the way to the root, so it doesn't do a full
object search in the full old history. Instead, it will only look as
far back in the history as it needs to resolve the commits. Thus, if
the commit reverts a blob (or tree) back to a state much further back in
history, we may end up listing some blobs (or trees) as "new" even
though they exist further back.

Regardless, the list of objects will be a superset (usually exact) list
of objects needed to go from the beginning commit to ending commit.

As a particularly obvious special case,

git-rev-list --objects HEAD

will end up listing every single object that is reachable from the HEAD
commit.

Side note: the objects are sorted by "recency", with commits first.

Add commit row context menu and handle left-click on... Paul Mackerras Sat, 25 Jun 2005 05:39:21 +0000 (15:39 +1000)

Add commit row context menu and handle left-click on graph lines

Right-click on a context row now brings up a menu allowing the user to
generate a diff between that row and the selected row. Left-click on
a graph line shows the parent and children connected by the line in
the details pane. Left-click on a circle in the graph selects that
commit. Left-click elsewhere in the graph does nothing.

When displaying a diff, the bottom-right file list box behaves
slightly differently now; instead of eliding all other files' diffs,
it now just scrolls the details pane so that the selected file's diff
starts at the top of the pane.

Since the diffs can be rather large, arrange for an update to be done
every 100ms while reading diffs.

Also removed the CVS revision keywords and bumped the version number
to 1.2.

Add "git-patch-id" program to generate patch ID's.Linus Torvalds Thu, 23 Jun 2005 22:06:04 +0000 (15:06 -0700)

Add "git-patch-id" program to generate patch ID's.

A "patch ID" is nothing but a SHA1 of the diff associated with a patch,
with whitespace and line numbers ignored. As such, it's "reasonably
stable", but at the same time also reasonably unique, ie two patches
that have the same "patch ID" are almost guaranteed to be the same
thing.

IOW, you can use this thing to look for likely duplicate commits.

Don't ignore reachability of tag objects in fsck

Do a cross-project merge of Paul Mackerras' gitk visualizer

gitk is really quite incredibly cool, and is great for visualizing what
is going on in a git repository. It's especially useful when you are
looking at what has changed since a particular version, since it
gracefully handles partial trees (and this also avoids the expense of
looking at _all_ changes in a big project).

For example, to see what changed in a merge after a "git pull", do

gitk ORIG_HEAD..

to see only the new things. Or you can simply do "gitk v2.6.12.." to
see what has changed since the v2.6.12 tag etc.

This merge itself is pretty interesting too, since it shows off a
feature of git itself that is incredibly cool: you can merge a
_separate_ git project into another git project. Not only does this
keep all the history of the original project, it also makes it possible
to continue to merge with the original project and the union of the two
projects.

I don't think anybody else can do that.

Clean up different special *HEAD handlingLinus Torvalds Tue, 21 Jun 2005 21:04:13 +0000 (14:04 -0700)

Clean up different special *HEAD handling

We codify the following different heads (in addition to the main "HEAD",
which points to the current branch, of course):

- FETCH_HEAD

Populated by "git fetch"

- ORIG_HEAD

The old HEAD before a "git pull/resolve" (successful or not)

- LAST_MERGE

The HEAD we're currently merging in "git pull/resolve"

- MERGE_HEAD

The previous head of a unresolved "git pull", which gets committed by
a "git commit" after manually resolving the result

We used to have "MERGE_HEAD" be populated directly by the fetch, and we
removed ORIG_HEAD and LAST_MERGE too aggressively.
