range-diff: fix regression in passing along diff options

In 73a834e9e2 ("range-diff: relieve callers of low-level configuration
burden", 2018-07-22) we broke passing down options like --no-patch,
--stat etc.

Fix that regression, and add a test asserting the pre-73a834e9e2
behavior for some of these diff options.

As noted in a change leading up to this ("range-diff doc: add a
section about output stability", 2018-11-07) the output is not meant
to be stable. So this regression test will likely need to be tweaked
once we get a "proper" --stat option.

See
https://public-inbox.org/git/nycvar.QRO.7.76.6.1811071202480.39@tvgsbejvaqbjf.bet/
for a further explanation of the regression. The fix here is not the
same as in Johannes's on-list patch, for reasons that'll be explained
in a follow-up commit.

The quoting of "EOF" here mirrors that of an earlier test. Perhaps
that should be fixed, but let's leave that up to a later cleanup
change.

The range-diff command is already advertised as porcelain, but let's
make it really clear that the output is completely subject to change,
particularly when it comes to diff options such as --stat. Right now
that option doesn't work, but fixing that is the subject of a later

Makefile: ease dynamic-gettext-poison transition

Earlier we made the entire build to fail when GETTEXT_POISON=Yes is
given to make, to notify those who did not notice that text poisoning
is now a runtime behaviour.

It turns out that this is too irritating for those who need to build
and test different versions of Git that cross the boundary between
history with and without this topic to switch between two
environment variables. Demote the error to a warning, so that you
can say something like

make GETTEXT_POISON=Yes GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON=Yes test

during the transition period, without having to worry about whether
exact version you are testing has or does not have this topic.

i18n: make GETTEXT_POISON a runtime optionÆvar Arnfjörð Bjarmason Thu, 8 Nov 2018 21:15:29 +0000 (21:15 +0000)

i18n: make GETTEXT_POISON a runtime option

Change the GETTEXT_POISON compile-time + runtime GIT_GETTEXT_POISON
test parameter to only be a GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON=<non-empty?>
runtime parameter, to be consistent with other parameters documented
in "Running tests with special setups" in t/README.

When I added GETTEXT_POISON in bb946bba76 ("i18n: add GETTEXT_POISON
to simulate unfriendly translator", 2011-02-22) I was concerned with
ensuring that the _() function would get constant folded if NO_GETTEXT
was defined, and likewise that GETTEXT_POISON would be compiled out
unless it was defined.

But as the benchmark in my [1] shows doing a one-off runtime
getenv("GIT_TEST_[...]") is trivial, and since GETTEXT_POISON was
originally added the GIT_TEST_* env variables have become the common
idiom for turning on special test setups.

So change GETTEXT_POISON to work the same way. Now the
GETTEXT_POISON=YesPlease compile-time option is gone, and running the
tests with GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON=[YesPlease|] can be toggled on/off
without recompiling.

This allows for conditionally amending tests to test with/without
poison, similar to what 859fdc0c3c ("commit-graph: define
GIT_TEST_COMMIT_GRAPH", 2018-08-29) did for GIT_TEST_COMMIT_GRAPH. Do
some of that, now we e.g. always run the t0205-gettext-poison.sh test.

I did enough there to remove the GETTEXT_POISON prerequisite, but its
inverse C_LOCALE_OUTPUT is still around, and surely some tests using
it can be converted to e.g. always set GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON=.

Notes on the implementation:

* We still compile a dedicated GETTEXT_POISON build in Travis
CI. Perhaps this should be revisited and integrated into the
"linux-gcc" build, see ae59a4e44f ("travis: run tests with
GIT_TEST_SPLIT_INDEX", 2018-01-07) for prior art in that area. Then
again maybe not, see [2].

* We now skip a test in t0000-basic.sh under
GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON=YesPlease that wasn't skipped before. This
test relies on C locale output, but due to an edge case in how the
previous implementation of GETTEXT_POISON worked (reading it from
GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS) wasn't enabling poison correctly. Now it does,
and needs to be skipped.

* The getenv() function is not reentrant, so out of paranoia about
code of the form:

printf(_("%s"), getenv("some-env"));

call use_gettext_poison() in our early setup in git_setup_gettext()
so we populate the "poison_requested" variable in a codepath that's
won't suffer from that race condition.

* We error out in the Makefile if you're still saying
GETTEXT_POISON=YesPlease to prompt users to change their
invocation.

* We should not print out poisoned messages during the test
initialization itself to keep it more readable, so the test library
hides the variable if set in $GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON_ORIG during
setup. See [3].

See also [4] for more on the motivation behind this patch, and the
history of the GETTEXT_POISON facility.

Windows: force-recompile git.res for differing architectures

When git.rc is compiled into git.res, the result is actually dependent
on the architecture. That is, you cannot simply link a 32-bit git.res
into a 64-bit git.exe.

Therefore, to allow 32-bit and 64-bit builds in the same directory, we
let git.res depend on GIT-PREFIX so that it gets recompiled when
compiling for a different architecture (this works because the exec path
changes based on the architecture: /mingw32/libexec/git-core for 32-bit
and /mingw64/libexec/git-core for 64-bit).

approxidate: fix NULL dereference in date_time()Jeff King Wed, 7 Nov 2018 01:12:53 +0000 (20:12 -0500)

approxidate: fix NULL dereference in date_time()

When we see a time like "noon", we pass "12" to our date_time() helper,
which sets the hour to 12pm. If the current time is before noon, then we
wrap around to yesterday using date_yesterday(). But unlike the normal
calls to date_yesterday() from approxidate_alpha(), we pass a NULL "num"
parameter. Since c27cc94fad (approxidate: handle pending number for
"specials", 2018-11-02), that causes a segfault.

One way to fix this is by checking for NULL. But arguably date_time() is
abusing our helper by passing NULL in the first place (and this is the
only case where one of these "special" parsers is used this way). So
instead, let's have it just do the 1-day subtraction itself. It's still
just a one-liner due to our update_tm() helper.

Note that the test added here is a little funny, as we say "10am noon",
which makes the "10am" seem pointless. But this bug can only be
triggered when it the currently-parsed hour is before the special time.
The latest special time is "tea" at 1700, but t0006 uses a hard-coded
TEST_DATE_NOW of 1900. We could reset TEST_DATE_NOW, but that may lead
to confusion in other tests. Just saying "10am noon" makes this test
self-contained.

pack-objects: ignore ambiguous object warningsDerrick Stolee Tue, 6 Nov 2018 20:34:47 +0000 (12:34 -0800)

pack-objects: ignore ambiguous object warnings

A git push process runs several processes during its run, but one
includes git send-pack which calls git pack-objects and passes
the known have/wants into stdin using object ids. However, the
default setting for core.warnAmbiguousRefs requires git pack-objects
to check for ref names matching the ref_rev_parse_rules array in
refs.c. This means that every object is triggering at least six
"file exists?" queries. When there are a lot of refs, this can
add up significantly! I observed a simple push spending three
seconds checking these paths.

The fix here is similar to 4c30d50 "rev-list: disable object/refname
ambiguity check with --stdin". While the get_object_list() method
reads the objects from stdin, turn warn_on_object_refname_ambiguity
flag (which is usually true) to false. Just for code hygiene, save
away the original at the beginning and restore it once we are done.

pull: handle --verify-signatures for unborn branchJeff King Tue, 6 Nov 2018 07:52:13 +0000 (02:52 -0500)

pull: handle --verify-signatures for unborn branch

We usually just forward the --verify-signatures option along to
git-merge, and trust it to do the right thing. However, when we are on
an unborn branch (i.e., there is no HEAD yet), we handle this case
ourselves without even calling git-merge. And in this code path, we do
not respect the verification option at all.

It may be more maintainable in the long run to call git-merge for the
unborn case. That would fix this bug, as well as prevent similar ones in
the future. But unfortunately it's not easy to do. As t5520.3
demonstrates, there are some special cases that git-merge does not
handle, like "git pull .. master:master" (by the time git-merge is
invoked, we've overwritten the unborn HEAD).

So for now let's just teach git-pull to handle this feature.

merge: handle --verify-signatures for unborn branch

When git-merge sees that we are on an unborn branch (i.e., there is no
HEAD), it follows a totally separate code path than the usual merge
logic. This code path does not know about verify_signatures, and so we
fail to notice bad or missing signatures.

This has been broken since --verify-signatures was added in efed002249
(merge/pull: verify GPG signatures of commits being merged, 2013-03-31).
In an ideal world, we'd unify the flow for this case with the regular
merge logic, which would fix this bug and avoid introducing similar
ones. But because the unborn case is so different, it would be a burden
on the rest of the function to continually handle the missing HEAD. So
let's just port the verification check to this special case.

completion: use __gitcomp_builtin for format-patch

This helps format-patch gain completion for a couple new options,
notably --range-diff.

Since send-email completion relies on $__git_format_patch_options
which is now reduced, we need to do something not to regress
send-email completion.

The workaround here is implement --git-completion-helper in
send-email.perl just as a bridge to "format-patch --git-completion-helper".
This is enough to use __gitcomp_builtin on send-email (to take
advantage of caching).

In the end, send-email.perl can probably reuse the same info it passes
to GetOptions() to generate full --git-completion-helper output so
that we don't need to keep track of its options in git-completion.bash
anymore. But that's something for another boring day.

midx: double-check large object write loop

The write_midx_large_offsets() function takes an array of object
entries, the number of entries in the array (nr_objects), and the number
of entries with large offsets (nr_large_offset). But we never actually
use nr_objects; instead we keep walking down the array and counting down
nr_large_offset until we've seen all of the large entries.

This is correct, but we can be a bit more defensive. If there were ever
a mismatch between nr_large_offset and the actual set of large-offset
objects, we'd walk off the end of the array.

Since we know the size of the array, we can use nr_objects to make sure
we don't walk too far.

assert NOARG/NONEG behavior of parse-options callbacksJeff King Mon, 5 Nov 2018 06:45:42 +0000 (01:45 -0500)

assert NOARG/NONEG behavior of parse-options callbacks

When we define a parse-options callback, the flags we put in the option
struct must match what the callback expects. For example, a callback
which does not handle the "unset" parameter should only be used with
PARSE_OPT_NONEG. But since the callback and the option struct are not
defined next to each other, it's easy to get this wrong (as earlier
patches in this series show).

Fortunately, the compiler can help us here: compiling with
-Wunused-parameters can show us which callbacks ignore their "unset"
parameters (and likewise, ones that ignore "arg" expect to be triggered
with PARSE_OPT_NOARG).

But after we've inspected a callback and determined that all of its
callers use the right flags, what do we do next? We'd like to silence
the compiler warning, but do so in a way that will catch any wrong calls
in the future.

We can do that by actually checking those variables and asserting that
they match our expectations. Because this is such a common pattern,
we'll introduce some helper macros. The resulting messages aren't
as descriptive as we could make them, but the file/line information from
BUG() is enough to identify the problem (and anyway, the point is that
these should never be seen).

Each of the annotated callbacks in this patch triggers
-Wunused-parameters, and was manually inspected to make sure all callers
use the correct options (so none of these BUGs should be triggerable).

It also has a bug: it does not specify PARSE_OPT_NONEG, but its callback
does not respect the "unset" flag, and will feed NULL to approxidate()
and segfault. Probably this should be marked with NONEG, or the callback
should set the timestamp to some sentinel value (e.g,. "0", or
"(time_t)-1").

But since there are no callers, deleting it means we don't even have to
think about what the right behavior should be.

apply: return -1 from option callback instead of calling exit(1)

The option callback for "apply --whitespace" exits with status "1" on
error. It makes more sense for it to just return an error to
parse-options. That code will exit, too, but it will use status "129"
that is customary for option errors.

The exit() dates back to aaf6c447aa (builtin/apply: make
parse_whitespace_option() return -1 instead of die()ing, 2016-08-08).
That commit gives no reason why we'd prefer the current exit status (it

cat-file: report an error on multiple --batch options

The options callback for --batch and --batch-check detects when the two
mutually incompatible options are used. But it simply returns an error
code to parse-options, meaning the program will quit without any kind of
message to the user.

Instead, let's use error() to print something and return -1. Note that
this flips the error return from 1 to -1, but negative values are more
idiomatic here (and parse-options treats them the same).

tag: mark "--message" option with NONEG

We do not allow "--no-message" to work now, as the option callback
returns "-1" when it sees a NULL arg. However, that will cause
parse-options to exit(129) without printing anything further, leaving
the user confused about what happened.

Instead, let's explicitly mark it as PARSE_OPT_NONEG, which will give a
useful error message (and print the usual -h output).

In theory this could be used to override an earlier "-m", but it's not
clear how it would interact with other message options (e.g., would it
also clear data read for "-F"?). Since it's already disabled and nobody
is asking for it, let's punt on that and just improve the error message.

grep: clean up num_threads handling

When NO_PTHREADS is still used in this file, we have two separate code
paths for thread and no thread support. The latter will always have
num_threads remain zero while the former uses num_threads zero as
"default number of threads".

With recent changes blur the line between thread and no-thread
support, this num_threads handling becomes a bit strange so let's
redefine it like this:

- num_threads == 0 means default number of threads and should become
positive after all configuration and option parsing is done if
multithread is supported.

- num_threads <= 1 runs no threads. It does not matter if the platform
supports threading or not.

- num_threads > 1 will run multiple threads and is invalid if
HAVE_THREADS is false. pthread API is only used in this case.

PS. a new warning is also added when num_threads is forced back to one
because a thread-incompatible option is specified.

hunk headers. We can instead use a hunk callback, which has two
benefits:

1. We don't have to re-parse the generated hunk header line, but can
use the passed parameters directly.

The value of timeout starts as an int value, and for this reason it

of this initial value is available in orig_timeout. The difference
(orig_timeout - elapsed) cannot wrap around because it is protected by

tree-walk.c: fix overoptimistic inclusion in :(exclude) matching

tree_entry_interesting() is used for matching pathspec on a tree. The
interesting thing about this function is that, because the tree
entries are known to be sorted, this function can return more than
just "yes, matched" and "no, not matched". It can also say "yes, this
entry is matched and so is the remaining entries in the tree".

This is where I made a mistake when matching exclude pathspec. For
exclude pathspec, we do matching twice, one with positive patterns and
one with negative ones, then a rule table is applied to determine the
final "include or exclude" result. Note that "matched" does not
necessarily mean include. For negative patterns, "matched" means
exclude.

This particular rule is too eager to include everything. Rule 8 says
that "if all entries are positively matched" and the current entry is
not negatively matched (i.e. not excluded), then all entries are
positively matched and therefore included. But this is not true. If
the _current_ entry is not negatively matched, it does not mean the
next one will not be and we cannot conclude right away that all
remaining entries are positively matched and can be included.

Rules 8 and 18 are now updated to be less eager. We conclude that the
current entry is positively matched and included. But we say nothing
about remaining entries. tree_entry_interesting() will be called again
for those entries where we will determine entries individually.

build: link with curl-defined linker flags

Adjusting the build process to rely more on curl-config to populate
linker flags instead of manually populating flags based off detected
features.

Originally, a configure-invoked build would check for SSL-support in the
target curl library. If enabled, NEEDS_SSL_WITH_CURL would be set and
used in the Makefile to append additional libraries to link against. As
for systems building solely with make, the defines NEEDS_IDN_WITH_CURL
and NEEDS_SSL_WITH_CURL could be set to indirectly enable respective
linker flags. Since both configure.ac and Makefile already rely on
curl-config utility to provide curl-related build information, adjusting
the respective assets to populate required linker flags using the
utility (unless explicitly configured).

add: speed up cmd_add() by utilizing read_cache_preload()

During an "add", a call is made to run_diff_files() which calls
check_removed() for each index-entry. The preload_index() code
distributes some of the costs across multiple threads.

Because the files checked are restricted to pathspec, adding
individual files makes no measurable impact but on a Windows repo
with ~200K files, 'git add .' drops from 6.3 seconds to 3.3 seconds
for a 47% savings.

remote: make add_missing_tags() linear

The add_missing_tags() method currently has quadratic behavior.
This is due to a linear number (based on number of tags T) of
calls to in_merge_bases_many, which has linear performance (based
on number of commits C in the repository).

Replace this O(T * C) algorithm with an O(T + C) algorithm by
using get_reachable_subset(). We ignore the return list and focus
instead on the reachable_flag assigned to the commits we care
about, because we need to interact with the tag ref and not just
the commit object.

commit-reach: implement get_reachable_subsetDerrick Stolee Fri, 2 Nov 2018 13:14:45 +0000 (06:14 -0700)

commit-reach: implement get_reachable_subset

The existing reachability algorithms in commit-reach.c focus on
finding merge-bases or determining if all commits in a set X can
reach at least one commit in a set Y. However, for two commits sets
X and Y, we may also care about which commits in Y are reachable
from at least one commit in X.

Implement get_reachable_subset() which answers this question. Given
two arrays of commits, 'from' and 'to', return a commit_list with
every commit from the 'to' array that is reachable from at least
one commit in the 'from' array.

The algorithm is a simple walk starting at the 'from' commits, using
the PARENT2 flag to indicate "this commit has already been added to
the walk queue". By marking the 'to' commits with the PARENT1 flag,
we can determine when we see a commit from the 'to' array. We remove
the PARENT1 flag as we add that commit to the result list to avoid
duplicates.

The order of the resulting list is a reverse of the order that the
commits are discovered in the walk.

There are a couple shortcuts to avoid walking more than we need:

1. We determine the minimum generation number of commits in the
'to' array. We do not walk commits with generation number
below this minimum.

2. We count how many distinct commits are in the 'to' array, and
decrement this count when we discover a 'to' commit during the
walk. If this number reaches zero, then we can terminate the
walk.

Tests will be added using the 'test-tool reach' helper in a
subsequent commit.

pathspec: handle non-terminated strings with :(attr)Jeff King Fri, 2 Nov 2018 05:23:22 +0000 (01:23 -0400)

pathspec: handle non-terminated strings with :(attr)

The pathspec code always takes names to be matched as a
name/namelen pair, but match_attrs() never looks at namelen,
and just treats "name" like a NUL-terminated string, passing
it to git_check_attr().

This usually works anyway. Every caller passes a
NUL-terminated string, and in all but one the passed-in
length is the same as the length of the string (the
exception is dir_path_match(), which may pass a smaller
length to drop a trailing slash). So we won't currently ever
read random memory, and the one case I found actually
happens to work correctly because the attr code can handle
the trailing slash itself.

But it's still worth addressing, as the function interface
implies that the name does not have to be NUL-terminated,
making this an accident waiting to happen.

Since teaching git_check_attr() to take a ptr/len pair would
be a big refactor, we'll just allocate a new string. We can
do this only when necessary, which avoids paying the cost
for most callers.

approxidate: handle pending number for "specials"Jeff King Fri, 2 Nov 2018 05:23:09 +0000 (01:23 -0400)

approxidate: handle pending number for "specials"

The approxidate parser has a table of special keywords like
"yesterday", "noon", "pm", etc. Some of these, like "pm", do
the right thing if we've recently seen a number: "3pm" is
what you'd think.

However, most of them do not look at or modify the
pending-number flag at all, which means a number may "jump"
across a significant keyword and be used unexpectedly. For
example, when parsing:

January 5th noon pm

we'd connect the "5" to "pm", and ignore it as a
day-of-month. This is obviously a bit silly, as "noon"
already implies "pm". And other mis-parsed things are
generally as silly ("January 5th noon, years ago" would
connect the 5 to "years", but probably nobody would type
that).

However, the fix is simple: when we see a keyword like
"noon", we should flush the pending number (as we would if
we hit another number, or the end of the string). In a few
of the specials that actually modify the day, we can simply
throw away the number (saying "Jan 5 yesterday" should not
respect the number at all).

Note that we have to either move or forward-declare the
static pending_number() to make it accessible to these
functions; this patch moves it.

rev-list: handle flags for --indexed-objects

When a traversal sees the --indexed-objects option, it adds
all blobs and valid cache-trees from the index to the
traversal using add_index_objects_to_pending(). But that
function totally ignores its flags parameter!

That means that doing:

git rev-list --objects --indexed-objects

and

git rev-list --objects --not --indexed-objects

produce the same output, because we ignore the UNINTERESTING
flag when walking the index in the second example.

Nobody noticed because this feature was added as a way for
tools like repack to increase their coverage of reachable
objects, meaning it would only be used like the first
example above.

But since it's user facing (and because the documentation
describes it "as if the objects are listed on the command

The previous commit taught xdiff to optionally provide the hunk header

more convenient xdi_diff_outf() helper, which ensures that our callbacks
are always fed whole lines.

Let's plumb the special hunk-callback through this interface, too. It
will follow the same rule as xdiff when the hunk callback is NULL (i.e.,
continue to pass a stringified hunk header to the line callback). Since
we add NULL to each caller, there should be no behavior change yet.

xdiff: provide a separate emit callback for hunks

The xdiff library always emits hunk header lines to our callbacks as
formatted strings like "@@ -a,b +c,d @@\n". This is convenient if we're
going to output a diff, but less so if we actually need to compute using
those numbers, which requires re-parsing the line.

In preparation for moving away from this, let's teach xdiff a new
callback function which gets the broken-out hunk information. To help
callers that don't want to use this new callback, if it's NULL we'll
continue to format the hunk header into a string.

Note that this function renames the "outf" callback to "out_line", as
well. This isn't strictly necessary, but helps in two ways:

1. Now that there are two callbacks, it's nice to use more descriptive
names.

2. Many callers did not zero the emit_callback_data struct, and needed
to be modified to set ecb.out_hunk to NULL. By changing the name of
the existing struct member, that guarantees that any new callers
from in-flight topics will break the build and be examined
manually.

path.

Add extra tests to t6012-rev-list-simplify.sh to add coverage of
these interactions. To ensure interesting things occur, alter the
repo data shape to have different orders depending on topo-, date-,
or author-date-order.

the new logic for topo-order walks using generation numbers. The
extra tests can be added indepently.

revision.c: generation-based topo-order algorithmDerrick Stolee Thu, 1 Nov 2018 13:46:22 +0000 (13:46 +0000)

revision.c: generation-based topo-order algorithm

The current --topo-order algorithm requires walking all
reachable commits up front, topo-sorting them, all before
outputting the first value. This patch introduces a new
algorithm which uses stored generation numbers to
incrementally walk in topo-order, outputting commits as
we go. This can dramatically reduce the computation time
to write a fixed number of commits, such as when limiting
with "-n <N>" or filling the first page of a pager.

When running a command like 'git rev-list --topo-order HEAD',
Git performed the following steps:

1. Run limit_list(), which parses all reachable commits,
adds them to a linked list, and distributes UNINTERESTING
flags. If all unprocessed commits are UNINTERESTING, then
it may terminate without walking all reachable commits.
This does not occur if we do not specify UNINTERESTING
commits.

2. Run sort_in_topological_order(), which is an implementation
of Kahn's algorithm. It first iterates through the entire
set of important commits and computes the in-degree of each
(plus one, as we use 'zero' as a special value here). Then,
we walk the commits in priority order, adding them to the
priority queue if and only if their in-degree is one. As
we remove commits from this priority queue, we decrement the
in-degree of their parents.

3. While we are peeling commits for output, get_revision_1()
uses pop_commit on the full list of commits computed by
sort_in_topological_order().

In the new algorithm, these three steps correspond to three
different commit walks. We run these walks simultaneously,
and advance each only as far as necessary to satisfy the
requirements of the 'higher order' walk. We know when we can
pause each walk by using generation numbers from the commit-
graph feature.

Recall that the generation number of a commit satisfies:

* If the commit has at least one parent, then the generation
number is one more than the maximum generation number among
its parents.

* If the commit has no parent, then the generation number is one.

There are two special generation numbers:

* GENERATION_NUMBER_INFINITY: this value is 0xffffffff and
indicates that the commit is not stored in the commit-graph and
the generation number was not previously calculated.

* GENERATION_NUMBER_ZERO: this value (0) is a special indicator
to say that the commit-graph was generated by a version of Git
that does not compute generation numbers (such as v2.18.0).

Since we use generation_numbers_enabled() before using the new
algorithm, we do not need to worry about GENERATION_NUMBER_ZERO.
However, the existence of GENERATION_NUMBER_INFINITY implies the
following weaker statement than the usual we expect from
generation numbers:

If A and B are commits with generation numbers gen(A) and
gen(B) and gen(A) < gen(B), then A cannot reach B.

Thus, we will walk in each of our stages until the "maximum
unexpanded generation number" is strictly lower than the
generation number of a commit we are about to use.

The walks are as follows:

1. EXPLORE: using the explore_queue priority queue (ordered by
maximizing the generation number), parse each reachable
commit until all commits in the queue have generation
number strictly lower than needed. During this walk, update
the UNINTERESTING flags as necessary.

2. INDEGREE: using the indegree_queue priority queue (ordered
by maximizing the generation number), add one to the in-
degree of each parent for each commit that is walked. Since
we walk in order of decreasing generation number, we know
that discovering an in-degree value of 0 means the value for
that commit was not initialized, so should be initialized to
two. (Recall that in-degree value "1" is what we use to say a
commit is ready for output.) As we iterate the parents of a
commit during this walk, ensure the EXPLORE walk has walked
beyond their generation numbers.

3. TOPO: using the topo_queue priority queue (ordered based on
the sort_order given, which could be commit-date, author-
date, or typical topo-order which treats the queue as a LIFO
stack), remove a commit from the queue and decrement the
in-degree of each parent. If a parent has an in-degree of
one, then we add it to the topo_queue. Before we decrement
the in-degree, however, ensure the INDEGREE walk has walked
beyond that generation number.

The implementations of these walks are in the following methods:

* explore_walk_step and explore_to_depth
* indegree_walk_step and compute_indegrees_to_depth
* next_topo_commit and expand_topo_walk

These methods have some patterns that may seem strange at first,
but they are probably carry-overs from their equivalents in
limit_list and sort_in_topological_order.

One thing that is missing from this implementation is a proper
way to stop walking when the entire queue is UNINTERESTING, so
this implementation is not enabled by comparisions, such as in
'git rev-list --topo-order A..B'. This can be updated in the
future.

In my local testing, I used the following Git commands on the
Linux repository in three modes: HEAD~1 with no commit-graph,
HEAD~1 with a commit-graph, and HEAD with a commit-graph. This
allows comparing the benefits we get from parsing commits from
the commit-graph and then again the benefits we get by
restricting the set of commits we walk.

Test: git rev-list --topo-order -100 HEAD
HEAD~1, no commit-graph: 6.80 s
HEAD~1, w/ commit-graph: 0.77 s
HEAD, w/ commit-graph: 0.02 s

Test: git rev-list --topo-order -100 HEAD -- tools
HEAD~1, no commit-graph: 9.63 s
HEAD~1, w/ commit-graph: 6.06 s
HEAD, w/ commit-graph: 0.06 s

This speedup is due to a few things. First, the new generation-
number-enabled algorithm walks commits on order of the number of
results output (subject to some branching structure expectations).
Since we limit to 100 results, we are running a query similar to
filling a single page of results. Second, when specifying a path,
we must parse the root tree object for each commit we walk. The
previous benefits from the commit-graph are entirely from reading
the commit-graph instead of parsing commits. Since we need to
parse trees for the same number of commits as before, we slow
down significantly from the non-path-based query.

For the test above, I specifically selected a path that is changed
frequently, including by merge commits. A less-frequently-changed
path (such as 'README') has similar end-to-end time since we need
to walk the same number of commits (before determining we do not
have 100 hits). However, get the benefit that the output is
presented to the user as it is discovered, much the same as a
normal 'git log' command (no '--topo-order'). This is an improved
user experience, even if the command has the same runtime.

commit/revisions: bookkeeping before refactoringDerrick Stolee Thu, 1 Nov 2018 13:46:21 +0000 (13:46 +0000)

commit/revisions: bookkeeping before refactoring

There are a few things that need to move around a little before
making a big refactoring in the topo-order logic:

1. We need access to record_author_date() and
compare_commits_by_author_date() in revision.c. These are used
currently by sort_in_topological_order() in commit.c.

2. Moving these methods to commit.h requires adding an author_date_slab
declaration to commit.h. Consumers will need their own implementation.

3. The add_parents_to_list() method in revision.c performs logic
around the UNINTERESTING flag and other special cases depending
on the struct rev_info. Allow this method to ignore a NULL 'list'
parameter, as we will not be populating the list for our walk.
Also rename the method to the slightly more generic name
process_parents() to make clear that this method does more than
add to a list (and no list is required anymore).

revision.c: begin refactoring --topo-order logicDerrick Stolee Thu, 1 Nov 2018 13:46:20 +0000 (13:46 +0000)

revision.c: begin refactoring --topo-order logic

When running 'git rev-list --topo-order' and its kin, the topo_order
setting in struct rev_info implies the limited setting. This means
that the following things happen during prepare_revision_walk():

* revs->limited implies we run limit_list() to walk the entire
reachable set. There are some short-cuts here, such as if we
perform a range query like 'git rev-list COMPARE..HEAD' and we
can stop limit_list() when all queued commits are uninteresting.

* revs->topo_order implies we run sort_in_topological_order(). See
the implementation of that method in commit.c. It implies that
the full set of commits to order is in the given commit_list.

These two methods imply that a 'git rev-list --topo-order HEAD'
command must walk the entire reachable set of commits _twice_ before
returning a single result.

If we have a commit-graph file with generation numbers computed, then
there is a better way. This patch introduces some necessary logic
redirection when we are in this situation.

In v2.18.0, the commit-graph file contains zero-valued bytes in the
positions where the generation number is stored in v2.19.0 and later.
Thus, we use generation_numbers_enabled() to check if the commit-graph
is available and has non-zero generation numbers.

When setting revs->limited only because revs->topo_order is true,
only do so if generation numbers are not available. There is no
reason to use the new logic as it will behave similarly when all
generation numbers are INFINITY or ZERO.

In prepare_revision_walk(), if we have revs->topo_order but not
revs->limited, then we trigger the new logic. It breaks the logic
into three pieces, to fit with the existing framework:

1. init_topo_walk() fills a new struct topo_walk_info in the rev_info
struct. We use the presence of this struct as a signal to use the
new methods during our walk. In this patch, this method simply
calls limit_list() and sort_in_topological_order(). In the future,
this method will set up a new data structure to perform that logic
in-line.

2. next_topo_commit() provides get_revision_1() with the next topo-
ordered commit in the list. Currently, this simply pops the commit
from revs->commits.

3. expand_topo_walk() provides get_revision_1() with a way to signal
walking beyond the latest commit. Currently, this calls
add_parents_to_list() exactly like the old logic.

While this commit presents method redirection for performing the
exact same logic as before, it allows the next commit to focus only
on the new logic.

travis-ci: install packages in 'ci/install-dependencies.sh'

Ever since we started using Travis CI, we specified the list of
packages to install in '.travis.yml' via the APT addon. While running
our builds on Travis CI's container-based infrastructure we didn't
have another choice, because that environment didn't support 'sudo',
and thus we didn't have permission to install packages ourselves. With
the switch to the VM-based infrastructure in the previous patch we do
get a working 'sudo', so we can install packages by running 'sudo
apt-get -y install ...' as well.

Let's make use of this and install necessary packages in
'ci/install-dependencies.sh', so all the dependencies (i.e. both
packages and "non-packages" (P4 and Git-LFS)) are handled in the same
file. Install gcc-8 only in the 'linux-gcc' build job; so far it has
been unnecessarily installed in the 'linux-clang' build job as well.
Print the versions of P4 and Git-LFS conditionally, i.e. only when
they have been installed; with this change even the static analysis
and documentation build jobs start using 'ci/install-dependencies.sh'
to install packages, and neither of these two build jobs depend on and
thus install those.

This change will presumably be beneficial for the upcoming Azure
Pipelines integration [1]: preliminary versions of that patch series
run a couple of 'apt-get' commands to install the necessary packages
before running 'ci/install-dependencies.sh', but with this patch it
will be sufficient to run only 'ci/install-dependencies.sh'.

As such, we will eventually even remove the `--preserve-merges` support,

t3418: decouple test cases from a previous `rebase -p` test case

It is in general a good idea for regression test cases to be as
independent of each other as possible (with the one exception of an
initial `setup` test case, which is only a test case in Git's test suite
because it does not have a notion of a fixture or setup).

This patch addresses one particular instance of this principle being
violated: a few test cases in t3418-rebase-continue.sh depend on a side
effect of a test case that verifies a specific `rebase -p` behavior. The
later test cases should, however, still succeed even if the `rebase -p`
test case is skipped.

t3404: decouple some test cases from outcomes of previous test cases

Originally, the `--preserve-merges` option of the `git rebase` command
piggy-backed on top of the `--interactive` feature. For that reason, the
early test cases were added to the very same test script that contains
the `git rebase -i` tests: `t3404-rebase-interactive.sh`.

However, since c42abfe7857 (rebase: introduce a dedicated backend for
--preserve-merges, 2018-05-28), the `--preserve-merges` feature got its
own backend, in preparation for converting the rest of the
`--interactive` code to built-in code, written in C rather than shell.

The reason why the `--preserve-merges` feature was not converted at the
same time is that we have something much better now: `--rebase-merges`.
That option intends to supersede `--preserve-merges`, and we will
probably deprecate the latter soon.

Once `--preserve-merges` has been deprecated for a good amount of time,
it will be time to remove it, and along with it, its tests.

In preparation for that, let's make the rest of the test cases in
`t3404-rebase-interactive.sh` independent of the test cases dedicated to
`--preserve-merges`.
