bash: offer to show (un)staged changesThomas Rast Tue, 3 Feb 2009 09:20:54 +0000 (10:20 +0100)

bash: offer to show (un)staged changes

Add a bit of code to __git_ps1 that lets it append '*' to the branch
name if there are any unstaged changes, and '+' if there are any
staged changes.

Since this is a rather expensive operation and will force a lot of
data into the cache whenever you first enter a repository, you have to
enable it manually by setting GIT_PS1_SHOWDIRTYSTATE to a nonempty
value. The configuration variable bash.showDirtyState can then be
used to disable it again for some repositories.

filter-branch: Fix fatal error on bare repositoriesEric Kidd Tue, 3 Feb 2009 18:27:03 +0000 (13:27 -0500)

filter-branch: Fix fatal error on bare repositories

When git filter-branch is run on a bare repository, it prints out a fatal
error message:

$ git filter-branch branch
Rewrite 476c4839280c219c2317376b661d9d95c1727fc3 (9/9)
WARNING: Ref 'refs/heads/branch' is unchanged
fatal: This operation must be run in a work tree

Note that this fatal error message doesn't prevent git filter-branch from
exiting successfully. (Why doesn't git filter-branch actually exit with an
error when a shell command fails? I'm not sure why it was designed this
way.)

This error message is caused by the following section of code at the end of
git-filter-branch.sh:

if [ "$(is_bare_repository)" = false ]; then
unset GIT_DIR GIT_WORK_TREE GIT_INDEX_FILE
test -z "$ORIG_GIT_DIR" || {
GIT_DIR="$ORIG_GIT_DIR" && export GIT_DIR
}
... elided ...
git read-tree -u -m HEAD
fi

The problem is the call to $(is_bare_repository), which is made before
GIT_DIR and GIT_WORK_TREE are restored. This call always returns "false",
even when we're running in a bare repository. But this means that we will
attempt to call 'git read-tree' even in a bare repository, which will fail
and print an error.

This patch modifies git-filter-branch.sh to restore the original
environment variables before trying to call is_bare_repository.

tests: fix test_commit() for case insensitive filesystemsJunio C Hamano Wed, 4 Feb 2009 05:46:33 +0000 (21:46 -0800)

tests: fix test_commit() for case insensitive filesystems

Brian Gernhardt noticed that t3411 was broken recently on case insensitive
filesystems.

0088496 (test-lib.sh: introduce test_commit() and test_merge() helpers,
2009-01-27) used a tag and a file with the same name, only different in
case, and converted many existing tests that needed only a file (or a
tag).

Some tests may want to refer to a rev or a file, but on a filesystem that
loses cases, referring to either without disambiguation mark ("--") on the
command line now triggers an error (t3411 was the only one such test).

Fix it by using a filename that is different from the tagname each step
creates.

merge: fix out-of-bounds memory access

The parameter n of unpack_callback() can have a value of up to
MAX_UNPACK_TREES. The check at the top of unpack_trees() (its only
(indirect) caller) makes sure it cannot exceed this limit.

unpack_callback() passes it and the array src to unpack_nondirectories(),
which has this loop:

for (i = 0; i < n; i++) {
/* ... */
src[i + o->merge] = o->df_conflict_entry;

o->merge can be 0 or 1, so unpack_nondirectories() potentially accesses
the array src at index MAX_UNPACK_TREES. This patch makes it big enough.

git-cvsserver: run post-update hook *after* update.Stefan Karpinski Thu, 29 Jan 2009 21:58:02 +0000 (13:58 -0800)

git-cvsserver: run post-update hook *after* update.

CVS server was running the hook before the update action was
actually done. This performs the update before the hook is called.

The original commit that introduced the current incorrect behavior
was 394d66d "git-cvsserver runs hooks/post-update". The error in
ordering of the hook call appears to have gone unnoticed, but since
git-cvsserver is supposed to emulate receive-pack, it stands to
reason that the hook should be run *after* the update. Since this
behavior is inconsistent with recieve-pack, users are either:

1) not using post-update hooks with git-cvsserver;
2) using post-update hooks that don't care whether they are
called before or after the actual update occurs;
3) using post-update hooks *only* with git-cvsserver, and
relying on the hook being called just before the update.

This patch would affect only users in case 3. These users are
depending on fairly obviously wrong behavior, and moreover they can
simply change their current post-update into post-recieve hooks,
and their systems will work correctly again.

git-cvsserver: handle CVS 'noop' command.Stefan Karpinski Fri, 30 Jan 2009 01:12:27 +0000 (17:12 -0800)

git-cvsserver: handle CVS 'noop' command.

The CVS protocol documentation, found at

http://www.wandisco.com/techpubs/cvs-protocol.pdf

states the following about the 'noop' command:

Response expected: yes. This request is a null command
in the sense that it doesn't do anything, but merely
(as with any other requests expecting a response) sends
back any responses pertaining to pending errors, pending
Notified responses, etc.

In accordance with this, the correct way to handle the 'noop'
command, when issued by a client, is to call req_EMPTY.

The 'noop' command is called by some CVS clients, notably
TortoiseCVS, thus making it desirable for git-cvsserver to
respond to the command rather than choking on it as unknown.

fsck: check loose objects from alternate object stores by default

"git fsck" used to validate only loose objects that are local and nothing
else by default. This is not just too little when a repository is
borrowing objects from other object stores, but also caused the
connectivity check to mistakenly declare loose objects borrowed from them
to be missing.

The rationale behind the default mode that validates only loose objects is
because these objects are still young and more unlikely to have been
pushed to other repositories yet. That holds for loose objects borrowed
from alternate object stores as well.

t0005: use SIGTERM for sigchain test

The signal tests consists of checking that each of our
handlers is executed, and that the test program was killed
by the final signal. We arbitrarily used SIGINT as the kill
signal.

However, some platforms (notably Solaris) will default
SIGINT to SIG_IGN if there is no controlling terminal. In
that case, we don't end up killing the program with the
final signal and the test fails.

This is a problem since the test script should not depend
on outside factors; let's use SIGTERM instead, which should
behave consistently.

symbolic ref: refuse non-ref targets in HEADJeff King Thu, 29 Jan 2009 08:33:02 +0000 (03:33 -0500)

symbolic ref: refuse non-ref targets in HEAD

When calling "git symbolic-ref" it is easy to forget that
the target must be a fully qualified ref. E.g., you might
accidentally do:

$ git symbolic-ref HEAD master

Unfortunately, this is very difficult to recover from,
because the bogus contents of HEAD make git believe we are
no longer in a git repository (as is_git_dir explicitly
checks for "^refs/heads/" in the HEAD target). So
immediately trying to fix the situation doesn't work:

$ git symbolic-ref HEAD refs/heads/master
fatal: Not a git repository

and one is left editing the .git/HEAD file manually.

Furthermore, one might be tempted to use symbolic-ref to set
up a detached HEAD:

$ git symbolic-ref HEAD `git rev-parse HEAD`

which sets up an even more bogus HEAD:

$ cat .git/HEAD
ref: 1a9ace4f2ad4176148e61b5a85cd63d5604aac6d

This patch introduces a small safety valve to prevent the
specific case of anything not starting with refs/heads/ to
go into HEAD. The scope of the safety valve is intentionally
very limited, to make sure that we are not preventing any
behavior that would otherwise be valid (like pointing a
different symref than HEAD outside of refs/heads/).

validate_headref: tighten ref-matching to just branches

When we are trying to determine whether a directory contains
a git repository, one of the tests we do is to check whether
HEAD is either a symlink or a symref into the "refs/"
hierarchy, or a detached HEAD.

We can tighten this a little more, though: a non-detached
HEAD should always point to a branch (since checking out
anything else should result in detachment), so it is safe to
check for "refs/heads/".

one commit that changes what commit is bound for a submodule path) to
squash the first two results in a failure; not just the first two commits
squashed, but the change to the submodule is also included in the result.

This failure causes the subsequent step to "pick" the change that actually
changes the submodule to be applied, because there is no change left to be

git: use run_command() to execute dashed externalsJeff King Wed, 28 Jan 2009 07:38:14 +0000 (02:38 -0500)

git: use run_command() to execute dashed externals

We used to simply try calling execvp(); if it succeeded, then we were done
and the new program was running. If it didn't, then we knew that it wasn't
a valid command.

Unfortunately, this interacted badly with the new pager handling. Now that
git remains the parent process and the pager is spawned, git has to hang
around until the pager is finished. We install an atexit handler to do
this, but that handler never gets called if we successfully run execvp.

You could see this behavior by running any dashed external using a pager
(e.g., "git -p stash list"). The command finishes running, but the pager
is still going. In the case of less, it then gets an error reading from
the terminal and exits, potentially leaving the terminal in a broken state
(and not showing the output).

This patch just uses run_command() to try running the dashed external. The
parent git process then waits for the external process to complete and
then handles the pager cleanup as it would for an internal command.

run_command(): handle missing command errors more grace... Jeff King Wed, 28 Jan 2009 07:35:33 +0000 (02:35 -0500)

run_command(): handle missing command errors more gracefully

When run_command() was asked to run a non-existant command, its behavior
varied depending on the platform:

- on POSIX systems, we would fork, and then after the execvp call
failed, we could call die(), which prints a message to stderr and
exits with code 128.

- on Windows, we do a PATH lookup, realize the program isn't there, and
then return ERR_RUN_COMMAND_FORK

The goal of this patch is to make it clear to callers that the specific
error was a missing command. To do this, we will return the error code
ERR_RUN_COMMAND_EXEC, which is already defined in run-command.h, checked
for in several places, but never actually gets set.

The new behavior is:

- on POSIX systems, we exit the forked process with code 127 (the same
as the shell uses to report missing commands). The parent process
recognizes this code and returns an EXEC error. The stderr message is
silenced, since the caller may be speculatively trying to run a
command. Instead, we use trace_printf so that somebody interested in
debugging can see the error that occured.

- on Windows, we check errno, which is already set correctly by
mingw_spawnvpe, and report an EXEC error instead of a FORK error

Thus it is safe to speculatively run a command:

int r = run_command_v_opt(argv, 0);
if (r == -ERR_RUN_COMMAND_EXEC)
/* oops, it wasn't found; try something else */
else
/* we failed for some other reason, error is in r */

- When a tag refers to an object that we do not have, we barfed. We
ignore such a tag if it is painted as UNINTERESTING with this change.

- When digging deeper into the ancestry chain of a commit that is already

we barfed if parse_parent() for a parent commit object failed. We can

Windows: Fix intermittent failures of t7701Johannes Sixt Wed, 28 Jan 2009 09:52:26 +0000 (10:52 +0100)

Windows: Fix intermittent failures of t7701

The last test case checks whether unpacked objects receive the time stamp
of the pack file. Due to different implementations of stat(2) by MSYS and
our version in compat/mingw.c, the test fails in about half of the test
runs.

Note the following facts:

- The test uses perl's -M operator to compare the time stamps. Since we
depend on MSYS perl, the result of this operator is based on MSYS's
implementation of the stat(2) call.

- NTFS on Windows records fractional seconds.

- The MSYS implementation of stat(2) *rounds* fractional seconds to full
seconds instead of truncating them. This becomes obvious by comparing the
modification times reported by 'ls --full-time $f' and 'stat $f' for
various files $f.

- Our implementation of stat(2) in compat/mingw.c *truncates* to full
seconds.

The consequence of this is that

- add_packed_git() picks up a truncated whole second modification time
from the pack file time stamp, which is then used for the loose objects,
while the pack file retains its time stamp in fractional seconds;

- but the test case compared the pack file's rounded modification times
to the loose objects' truncated modification times.

And half of the time the rounded modification time is not the same as its
truncated modification time.

The fix is that we replace perl by 'test-chmtime -v +0', which prints the
truncated whole-second mtime without modifying it.

send-pack: do not send unknown object name from ".have" to pack-objects

v1.6.1 introduced ".have" extension to the protocol to allow the receiving
side to advertise objects that are reachable from refs in the repositories
it borrows from. This was meant to be used by the sending side to avoid
sending such objects; they are already available through the alternates
mechanism.

The client side implementation in v1.6.1, which was introduced with
40c155f (push: prepare sender to receive extended ref information from the
receiver, 2008-09-09) aka v1.6.1-rc1~203^2~1, were faulty in that it did
not consider the possiblity that the repository receiver borrows from
might have objects it does not know about.

This fixes it by refraining from passing missing commits to underlying
pack-objects. Revision machinery may need to be tightened further to
treat missing uninteresting objects as non-error events, but this is an
obvious and safe fix for a maintenance release that is almost good enough.

test-path-utils: Fix off by one, found by valgrind

When normalizing an absolute path, we might have to add a slash _and_ a
NUL to the buffer, so the buffer was one too small.

Let's just future proof the code and alloc PATH_MAX + 1 bytes.

get_sha1_basic(): fix invalid memory access, found by valgrind

When get_sha1_basic() is passed a buffer of len 0, it should not
check if buf[len-1] is a curly bracket.

mergetool: respect autocrlf by using checkout-index

Previously, git mergetool used cat-file which does not perform git to
worktree conversion. This changes mergetool to use git checkout-index
instead which means that the temporary files used for mergetool use the
correct line endings for the platform.

mergetool: Don't repeat merge tool candidates

git mergetool listed some candidates for mergetools twice, depending on
the environment.

This slightly changes the behavior when both KDE_FULL_SESSION and
GNOME_DESKTOP_SESSION_ID are set at the same time; in such a case
meld is used in favor of kdiff3 (the old code favored kdiff3 in such a
case), but it should not matter in practice.
