Rework pretty_print_commit to use strbufs instead of custom buffers.

Also remove the "len" parameter, as:
(1) it was used as a max boundary, and every caller used ~0u
(2) we check for final NUL no matter what, so it doesn't help for speed.

As a result most of the pp_* function takes 3 arguments less, and we need
a lot less local variables, this makes the code way more readable, and
easier to extend if needed.

This patch also fixes some spacing and cosmetic issues.

This patch also fixes (as a side effect) a memory leak intoruced in
builtin-archive.c at commit df4a394f (fmt was xmalloc'ed and not free'd)

Strbuf API extensions and fixes.Pierre Habouzit Mon, 10 Sep 2007 10:35:04 +0000 (12:35 +0200)

Strbuf API extensions and fixes.

* Add strbuf_rtrim to remove trailing spaces.
* Add strbuf_insert to insert data at a given position.
* Off-by one fix in strbuf_addf: strbuf_avail() does not counts the final
\0 so the overflow test for snprintf is the strict comparison. This is
not critical as the growth mechanism chosen will always allocate _more_
memory than asked, so the second test will not fail. It's some kind of
miracle though.
* Add size extension hints for strbuf_init and strbuf_read. If 0, default
applies, else:
+ initial buffer has the given size for strbuf_init.
+ first growth checks it has at least this size rather than the
default 8192.

Make --no-thin the default in git-push to save server... Shawn O. Pearce Sun, 9 Sep 2007 23:38:11 +0000 (19:38 -0400)

Make --no-thin the default in git-push to save server resources

1) pushes happen less often than fetches, so the bandwidth saving is
much less visible in that case overall.

2) thin packs have to be complemented with missing delta bases to be
valid, so many received thin packs will take more disk space.

3) the bother of repacking should be distributed amongst "clients"
i.e. fetchers and pushers as much as possible, and not the server
being fetched or pushed, to keep disk and CPU usage low on the
server.

This is why a fetch should get thin packs but a push should not.

Both Nico and I have been assuming that --no-thin was the default
behavior of git-push ever since Nico introduced --fix-thin into the
index-pack process, which allowed fetch and receive-pack to avoid
exploding packfiles received during transfer. This patch finally
makes it so.

git-tag -s must fail if gpg cannot sign the tag.Carlos Rica Sun, 9 Sep 2007 00:39:29 +0000 (02:39 +0200)

git-tag -s must fail if gpg cannot sign the tag.

Most of this patch code and message was written by Shawn O. Pearce.
I made some tests to know what the problem was, and then I changed
the code related with the SIGPIPE signal.

If the user has misconfigured `user.signingkey` in their .git/config
or just doesn't have any secret keys on their keyring and they ask
for a signed tag with `git tag -s` we better make sure the resulting
tag was actually signed by gpg.

Prior versions of builtin git-tag allowed this failure to slip
by without error as they were not checking the return value of
the finish_command() so they did not notice when gpg exited with
an error exit status. They also did not fail if gpg produced an
empty output or if read_in_full received an error from the read
system call while trying to read the pipe back from gpg.

Finally, we did not actually honor any return value from the do_sign
function as it returns ssize_t but was being stored into an unsigned
long. This caused the compiler to optimize out the die condition,
allowing git-tag to continue along and create the tag object.

However, when gpg gets a wrong username, it exits before any read was done
and then the writing process receives SIGPIPE and program is terminated.
By ignoring this signal, anyway, the function write_or_die gets EPIPE from
write_in_full and exits returning 0 to the system without a message.
Here we better call to write_in_full directly so we can fail
printing a message and return safely to the caller.

With these issues fixed `git-tag -s` will now fail to create the
tag and will report a non-zero exit status to its caller, thereby
allowing automated helper scripts to detect (and recover from)
failure if gpg is not working properly.

Since libsvn appears limited to only supporting one connection

Rework strbuf API and semantics.Pierre Habouzit Thu, 6 Sep 2007 11:20:05 +0000 (13:20 +0200)

Rework strbuf API and semantics.

The gory details are explained in strbuf.h. The change of semantics this
patch enforces is that the embeded buffer has always a '\0' character after
its last byte, to always make it a C-string. The offs-by-one changes are all
related to that very change.

A strbuf can be used to store byte arrays, or as an extended string
library. The `buf' member can be passed to any C legacy string function,
because strbuf operations always ensure there is a terminating \0 at the end
of the buffer, not accounted in the `len' field of the structure.

A strbuf can be used to generate a string/buffer whose final size is not
really known, and then "strbuf_detach" can be used to get the built buffer,
and keep the wrapping "strbuf" structure usable for further work again.

Other interesting feature: strbuf_grow(sb, size) ensure that there is
enough allocated space in `sb' to put `size' new octets of data in the
buffer. It helps avoiding reallocating data for nothing when the problem the
strbuf helps to solve has a known typical size.

memmem() is a nice GNU extension for searching a length limited string

This compat version is based on the version found in glibc 2.2 (GPL 2);
I only removed the optimization of checking the first char by hand, and
generally tried to keep the code simple. We can add it back if memcmp
shows up high in a profile, but for now I prefer to keep it (almost
trivially) simple.

Since I don't really know which platforms beside those with a glibc
have their own memmem(), I used a heuristic: if NO_STRCASESTR is set,
then NO_MEMMEM is set, too.

Don't allow contrib/workdir/git-new-workdir to trash existing dirs

Recently I found that doing a sequence like the following:

git-new-workdir a b
...
git-new-workdir a b

by accident will cause a (and now also b) to have an infinite cycle
in its refs directory. This is caused by git-new-workdir trying
to create the "refs" symlink over again, only during the second
time it is being created within a's refs directory and is now also
pointing back at a's refs.

This causes confusion in git as suddenly branches are named things
like "refs/refs/refs/refs/refs/refs/refs/heads/foo" instead of the
more commonly accepted "refs/heads/foo". Plenty of commands start
to see ambiguous ref names and others just take ages to compute.

git-clone has the same safety check, so git-new-workdir should
behave just like it.

git-apply: do not read past the end of buffer

When the preimage we are patching is shorter than what the patch
text expects, we tried to match the buffer contents at the
"original" line with the fragment in full, without checking we
have enough data to match in the preimage. This caused the size
of a later memmove() to wrap around and attempt to scribble
almost the entire address space. Not good.

The code that follows the part this patch touches tries to match
the fragment with line offsets. Curiously, that code does not
have the problem --- it guards against reading past the end of
the preimage.

When a topic branch is rebased, some of whose commits are already
cherry-picked upstream:

o--X--A--B--Y <- master
\

then 'git rebase -m master' would report:

With this fix it reports the expected:

git-diff: resurrect the traditional empty "diff --git... Junio C Hamano Fri, 31 Aug 2007 20:13:42 +0000 (13:13 -0700)

git-diff: resurrect the traditional empty "diff --git" behaviour

The warning message to suggest "Consider running git-status" from
"git-diff" that we experimented with during the 1.5.3 cycle turns
out to be a bad idea. It robbed cache-dirty information from people
who valued it, while still asking users to run "update-index --refresh".
It was hoped that the new behaviour would at least have some educational
value, but not showing the cache-dirty paths like before meant that the
user would not even know easily which paths were cache-dirty, and it
made the need to refresh the index look like even more unnecessary chore.

This commit reinstates the traditional behaviour, but with a twist.

By default, the empty "diff --git" output is totally squelched out
from "git diff" output. At the end of the command, it automatically
runs "update-index --refresh" as needed, without even bothering the
user. In other words, people who do not care about the cache-dirtyness
do not even have to see the warning.

The traditional behaviour to see the stat-dirty output and to bypassing
the overhead of content comparison can be specified by setting the
configuration variable diff.autorefreshindex to false.

git-tag: Fix -l option to use better shell style globs.Carlos Rica Sat, 1 Sep 2007 05:10:09 +0000 (07:10 +0200)

git-tag: Fix -l option to use better shell style globs.

This patch removes certain behaviour of "git tag -l foo", currently
listing every tag name having "foo" as a substring. The same
thing now could be achieved doing "git tag -l '*foo*'".

This feature was added recently when git-tag.sh got the -n option
for showing tag annotations, because that commit also replaced the
old "grep pattern" behaviour with a more preferable "shell pattern"
behaviour (although slightly modified as you can see).
Thus, the following builtin-tag.c implemented it in order to
ensure that tests were passing unchanged with both programs.

Since common "shell patterns" match names with a given substring
_only_ when * is inserted before and after (as in "*substring*"), and
the "plain" behaviour cannot be achieved easily with the current
implementation, this is mostly the right thing to do, in order to
make it more flexible and consistent.

Tests for "git tag" were also changed to reflect this.

git-svn: fix dcommit clobbering upstream when committing multiple changes

Although dcommit could detect if the first commit in the series
would conflict with the HEAD revision in SVN, it could not
detect conflicts in further commits it made.

Now we rebase each uncommitted change after each revision is
committed to SVN to ensure that we are up-to-date. git-rebase
will bail out on conflict errors if our next change cannot be
applied and committed to SVN cleanly, preventing accidental
clobbering of changes on the SVN-side.

--no-rebase users will have trouble with this, and are thus
warned if they are committing more than one commit. Fixing this
for (hopefully uncommon) --no-rebase users would be more complex
and will probably happen at a later date.

Thanks to David Watson for finding this and the original test.

Teach bash about completing arguments for git-tag

Lately I have been doing a lot of calls to `git tag -d` and also to
`git tag -v`. In both such cases being able to complete the names
of existing tags saves the fingers some typing effort. We now look
for the -d or -v option to git-tag in the bash completion support
and offer up existing tag names as possible choices for these.

When creating a new tag we now also offer bash completion support
for the second argument to git-tag (the object to be tagged) as this
can often be a specific existing branch name and is not necessarily
the current HEAD.

If the -f option is being used to recreate an existing tag we now
also offer completion support on the existing tag names for the
first argument of git-tag, helping to the user to reselect the
prior tag name that they are trying to replace.

We used to trigger the special case "things not in origin"
semantics only when one and only one positive ref is given, and
no number (e.g. "git format-patch -4 origin") was specified, and
used the general revision range semantics for everything else.

This narrows the special case a bit more, by making:

git format-patch --root this_version

to show everything that leads to the named commit.

More importantly, document the two different semantics better.
The generic revision range semantics came later and bolted on
without being clearly documented.

Porcelain level "log" family should recurse when diffing.

Most notably, "git log --name-status" stopped at top level
directory changes without "-r" option.

git-merge: do up-to-date check also for all strategiesJunio C Hamano Thu, 16 Aug 2007 06:19:55 +0000 (23:19 -0700)

git-merge: do up-to-date check also for all strategies

This clarifies the logic to omit fast-forward check and omit
trivial merge before running the specified strategy.

The "index_merge" variable started out as a flag to say "do not
do anything clever", but when recursive was changed to skip the
trivial merge, the semantics were changed and the variable alone
does not make sense anymore.

This splits the variable into two, allow_fast_forward (which is
almost always true, and avoids making a merge commit when the
other commit is a descendant of our branch, but is set to false
for ours and subtree) and allow_trivial_merge (which is false
for ours, recursive and subtree).

Unlike the earlier implementation, the "ours" strategy allows an
up-to-date condition. When we are up-to-date, the result will
be our commit, and by definition, we will have our tree as the
result.

git --bare cmd: do not unconditionally nuke GIT_DIRJunio C Hamano Tue, 28 Aug 2007 05:41:23 +0000 (22:41 -0700)

git --bare cmd: do not unconditionally nuke GIT_DIR

"GIT_DIR=some.where git --bare cmd" and worse yet
"git --git-dir=some.where --bare cmd" were very confusing. They
both ignored git-dir specified, and instead made $cwd as GIT_DIR.

This changes --bare not to override existing GIT_DIR.

This has been like this for a long time. Let's hope nobody sane
relied on this insane behaviour.

Fix initialization of a bare repositoryJunio C Hamano Mon, 27 Aug 2007 07:58:06 +0000 (00:58 -0700)

Fix initialization of a bare repository

Here is my attempt to fix this with a minimally intrusive patch.

* As "git --bare init" cannot tell if it was called with --bare or
just "GIT_DIR=. git init", I added an explicit assignment of
is_bare_repository_cfg on the codepath for "git --bare".

* GIT_WORK_TREE alone without GIT_DIR does not make any sense,
nor GIT_WORK_TREE with an explicit "git --bare". Catch that
mistake. It might make sense to move this check to "git.c"
side as well, but I tried to shoot for the minimum change for
now.

* Some scripts, especially from the olden days, rely on
traditional GIT_DIR behaviour in "git init". Namely, these
are some notable patterns:

(create a bare repository)
- mkdir some.git && cd some.git && GIT_DIR=. git init
- mkdir some.git && cd some.git && git --bare init

(create a non-bare repository)
- mkdir .git && GIT_DIR=.git git init
- mkdir .git && GIT_DIR=`pwd`/.git git init

This comes with a new test script and also passes the existing
test suite, but there may be cases that are still broken with
the current tip of master and this patch does not yet fix. I'd
appreciate help in straightening this mess out.
