git-add--interactive: Improve behavior on bogus input

1) Previously, any menu would cause a perl error when entered '0',
which is never a valid option.

2) Entering a bogus choice (like 998 or 4-2) surprisingly caused
the same behavior as if the user had just hit 'enter', which
means to carry out the selected action on the selected items.

Fix revision log diff setup, avoid unnecessary diff... Linus Torvalds Sat, 29 Sep 2007 16:50:39 +0000 (09:50 -0700)

Fix revision log diff setup, avoid unnecessary diff generation

We used to incorrectly start calculating diffs whenever any argument but
'-z' was recognized by the diff options parsing. That was bogus, since not
all arguments result in diffs being needed, so we just waste a lot of time
and effort on calculating diffs that don't matter.

This actually also fixes another bug in "git log". Try this:

git log -C

and notice how it prints an extra empty line in between log entries, even
though it never prints the actual diff (because we didn't ask for any diff
format, so the diff machinery never prints anything).

With this patch, that bogus empty line is gone, because "revs->diff" is
never set. So this isn't just a "wasted time and effort" issue, it's also
a slight semantic fix.

apply: get rid of --index-info in favor of --build-fake-ancestor

git-am used "git apply -z --index-info" to find the original versions
of the files touched by the diff, to be able to do an inexpensive
three-way merge.

This operation makes only sense in a repository, since the index
information in the diff refers to blobs, which have to be present in
the current repository.

Therefore, teach "git apply" a mode to write out the result as an
index file to begin with, obviating the need for scripts to do it
themselves.

The sole user for --index-info is "git am" is converted to
use --build-fake-ancestor in this patch.

diffcore-rename: cache file deltasJeff King Tue, 25 Sep 2007 19:29:42 +0000 (15:29 -0400)

diffcore-rename: cache file deltas

We find rename candidates by computing a fingerprint hash of
each file, and then comparing those fingerprints. There are
inherently O(n^2) comparisons, so it pays in CPU time to
hoist the (rather expensive) computation of the fingerprint
out of that loop (or to cache it once we have computed it once).

Previously, we didn't keep the filespec information around
because then we had the potential to consume a great deal of
memory. However, instead of keeping all of the filespec
data, we can instead just keep the fingerprint.

This patch implements and uses diff_free_filespec_data_large
to accomplish that goal. We also have to change
estimate_similarity not to needlessly repopulate the
filespec data when we already have the hash.

Practical tests showed 4.5x speedup for a 10% memory usage
increase.

It might be a sign of source code management gone bad, but when two branches

The painkiller effect could have been achieved by e.g. 'merge.renamelimit',

This allows a subproject's location to be specified and stored as relative
to the parent project's location (e.g., ./foo, or ../foo). This url is
stored in .gitmodules as given. It is resolved into an absolute url by
appending it to the parent project's url when the information is written
to .git/config (i.e., during submodule add for the originator, and
submodule init for a downstream recipient). This allows cloning of the

- Create a subpool for looping over svn revisions and clear

Supplant the "while case ... break ;; esac" idiomDavid Kastrup Sun, 23 Sep 2007 20:42:08 +0000 (22:42 +0200)

Supplant the "while case ... break ;; esac" idiom

A lot of shell scripts contained stuff starting with

while case "$#" in 0) break ;; esac

and similar. I consider breaking out of the condition instead of the
body od the loop ugly, and the implied "true" value of the
non-matching case is not really obvious to humans at first glance. It
happens not to be obvious to some BSD shells, either, but that's
because they are not POSIX-compliant. In most cases, this has been
replaced by a straight condition using "test". "case" has the
advantage of being faster than "test" on vintage shells where "test"
is not a builtin. Since none of them is likely to run the git
scripts, anyway, the added readability should be worth the change.

A few loops have had their termination condition expressed
differently.

apply: get rid of --index-info in favor of --build-fake-ancestor

git-am used "git apply -z --index-info" to find the original versions
of the files touched by the diff, to be able to do an inexpensive
three-way merge.

This operation makes only sense in a repository, since the index
information in the diff refers to blobs, which have to be present in
the current repository.

Therefore, teach "git apply" a mode to write out the result as an
index file to begin with, obviating the need for scripts to do it
themselves.

The sole user for --index-info is "git am" is converted to
use --build-fake-ancestor in this patch.

Added example hook script to save/restore permissions... Josh England Tue, 11 Sep 2007 16:59:04 +0000 (10:59 -0600)

Added example hook script to save/restore permissions/ownership.

Usage info is emebed in the script, but the gist of it is to run the script
from a pre-commit hook to save permissions/ownership data to a file and check
that file into the repository. Then, a post_merge hook reads the file and
updates working tree permissions/ownership. All updates are transparent to
the user (although there is a --verbose option). Merge conflicts are handled
in the "read" phase (in pre-commit), and the script aborts the commit and
tells you how to fix things in the case of a merge conflict in the metadata
file. This same idea could be extended to handle file ACLs or other file
metadata if desired.

In POSIX 1003.2 regular expressions, the star (*), is not an wildcard
meaning "match everything", it matches 0 or more matches of the atom

git-commit: partial commit of paths only removed from the index

Because a partial commit is meant to be a way to ignore what are
staged in the index, "git rm --cached A && git commit A" should
just record what is in A on the filesystem. The previous patch
made the command sequence to barf, saying that A has not been
added yet. This fixes it.

git-commit: Allow partial commit of file removal.Junio C Hamano Wed, 12 Sep 2007 23:04:22 +0000 (16:04 -0700)

git-commit: Allow partial commit of file removal.

When making a partial commit, git-commit uses git-ls-files with
the --error-unmatch option to expand and sanity check the user
supplied path patterns. When any path pattern does not match
with the paths known to the index, it errors out, in order to
catch a common mistake to say "git commit Makefiel cache.h"
and end up with a commit that touches only cache.h (notice the
misspelled "Makefile"). This detection however does not work
well when the path has already been removed from the index.

If you drop a path from the index and try to commit that
partially, i.e.

$ git rm COPYING
$ git commit -m 'Remove COPYING' COPYING

the command complains because git does not know anything about
COPYING anymore.

This introduces a new option --with-tree to git-ls-files and
uses it in git-commit when we build a temporary index to
write a tree object for the partial commit.

When --with-tree=<tree-ish> option is specified, names from the
given tree are added to the set of names the index knows about,
so we can treat COPYING file in the example as known.

Of course, there is no reason to use "git rm" and git-aware
people have long time done:

$ rm COPYING
$ git commit -m 'Remove COPYING' COPYING

which works just fine. But this caused a constant confusion.

send-email: make message-id generation a bit more robust

Earlier code took Unix time and appended a few random digits.
If you are firing off many messages within a second, you could
issue the same id to different messages, which is a no-no. If
you send out 31 messages within a single second, with random
integer taken out of rand(4200), you have about 10% chance of
producing the same message ID.

This fixes the problem by uses a prefix string which is
constant-per-invocation (time and pid), with a serial number for
each message generated by the process appended at the end.

In these cases if we want the user to have control over the selection
we implement our own "in_sel" tag that shows the selected region
and we perform our own selection management in the background
via keybindings and mouse bindings. In such uses we don't want
the user to be able to activate the native platform selection by
dragging their mouse through the text widget. Doing so creates a
very confusing display and the user is left wondering what it may
mean to have two different types of selection in the same widget.

Tk doesn't allow us to delete the "sel" tag that it uses internally
to manage the native selection but it will allow us to make it
invisible by setting the tag to have the same display properties
as unselected text. So long as we don't actually use the "sel"
tag for anything in code its effectively invisible.

apply --index-info: fall back to current index for mode changes

"git diff" does not record index lines for pure mode changes (i.e. no
lines changed). Therefore, apply --index-info would call out a bogus
error.

Instead, fall back to reading the info from the current index.

Incidentally, this fixes an error where git-rebase would not rebase a
commit including a pure mode change, and changes requiring a threeway
merge.

Noticed and later tested by Chris Shoemaker.
