Teach notes code to properly preserve non-notes in... Johan Herland Sat, 13 Feb 2010 21:28:23 +0000 (22:28 +0100)

Teach notes code to properly preserve non-notes in the notes tree

The note tree structure allows for non-note entries to coexist with note
entries in a notes tree. Although we certainly expect there to be very
few non-notes in a notes tree, we should still support them to a certain
degree.

This patch teaches the notes code to preserve non-notes when updating the
notes tree with write_notes_tree(). Non-notes are not affected by fanout
restructuring.

For non-notes to be handled correctly, we can no longer allow subtree
entries that do not match the fanout structure produced by the notes code
itself. This means that fanouts like 4/36, 6/34, 8/32, 4/4/32, etc. are
no longer recognized as note subtrees; only 2-based fanouts are allowed
(2/38, 2/2/36, 2/2/2/34, etc.). Since the notes code has never at any point
_produced_ non-2-based fanouts, it is highly unlikely that this change will
cause problems for anyone.

The patch also adds some tests verifying the correct handling of non-notes
in a notes tree.

Builtin-ify git-notes

The builtin-ification includes some minor behavioural changes to the
command-line interface: It is no longer allowed to mix the -m and -F
arguments, and it is not allowed to use multiple -F options.

As part of the builtin-ification, we add the commit_notes() function
to the builtin API. This function (together with the notes.h API) can
be easily used from other builtins to manipulate the notes tree.

Also includes needed changes to t3301.

Refactor notes concatenation into a flexible interface... Johan Herland Sat, 13 Feb 2010 21:28:19 +0000 (22:28 +0100)

Refactor notes concatenation into a flexible interface for combining notes

When adding a note to an object that already has an existing note, the
current solution is to concatenate the contents of the two notes. However,
the caller may instead wish to _overwrite_ the existing note with the new
note, or maybe even _ignore_ the new note, and keep the existing one. There
might also be other ways of combining notes that are only known to the
caller.

Therefore, instead of unconditionally concatenating notes, we let the caller
specify how to combine notes, by passing in a pointer to a function for
combining notes. The caller may choose to implement its own function for
notes combining, but normally one of the following three conveniently
supplied notes combination functions will be sufficient:

- combine_notes_concatenate() combines the two notes by appending the
contents of the new note to the contents of the existing note.

- combine_notes_overwrite() replaces the existing note with the new note.

- combine_notes_ignore() keeps the existing note, and ignores the new note.

A combine_notes function can be passed to init_notes() to choose a default
combine_notes function for that notes tree. If NULL is given, the notes tree
falls back to combine_notes_concatenate() as the ultimate default.

A combine_notes function can also be passed directly to add_note(), to
control the notes combining behaviour for a note addition in particular.
If NULL is passed, the combine_notes function registered for the given
notes tree is used.

The new struct notes_tree encapsulates access to a specific notes tree.
It is provided to allow callers to make use of several different notes trees

A struct notes_tree * parameter is added to every function in the notes API.
In all cases, NULL can be passed, in which case the fallback "default" notes
tree (default_notes_tree) is used.

initialized to an empty state. This will become useful in the future when
manipulating the notes tree through the notes API.

Notes API: get_commit_notes() -> format_note() + remove the commit restriction

There is really no reason why only commit objects can be annotated. By
changing the struct commit parameter to get_commit_notes() into a sha1 we
gain the ability to annotate any object type. To reflect this in the function
naming as well, we rename get_commit_notes() to format_note().

This patch also fixes comments and variable names throughout notes.c as a
consequence of the removal of the unnecessary 'commit' restriction.

The code used as if return value from basename(3) were stable, but
often the function is implemented to return a pointer to a static
storage internal to it.

Because basename(3) is also allowed to modify its input parameter in
place, casting constness away from the strings we obtained from the
caller and giving them to basename is a no-no.

As the documentation says, this is primarily for debugging, and
in the longer term we should rename it to test-show-index or something.

In the meantime, just avoid xmalloc (which slurps in the rest of git), and
separating out the trivial hex functions into "hex.o".

This results in

Remove diff machinery dependency from read-cacheLinus Torvalds Thu, 21 Jan 2010 19:37:38 +0000 (11:37 -0800)

Remove diff machinery dependency from read-cache

Exal Sibeaz pointed out that some git files are way too big, and that
add_files_to_cache() brings in all the diff machinery to any git binary
that needs the basic git SHA1 object operations from read-cache.c. Which
is pretty much all of them.

It's doubly silly, since add_files_to_cache() is only used by builtin
programs (add, checkout and commit), so it's fairly easily fixed by just
moving the thing to builtin-add.c, and avoiding the dependency entirely.

I initially argued to Exal that it would probably be best to try to depend
on smart compilers and linkers, but after spending some time trying to
make -ffunction-sections work and giving up, I think Exal was right, and
the fix is to just do some trivial cleanups like this.

This trivial cleanup results in pretty stunning file size differences.
The diff machinery really is mostly used by just the builtin programs, and
you have things like these trivial before-and-after numbers:

-rwxr-xr-x 1 torvalds torvalds 1727420 2010-01-21 10:53 git-hash-object
-rwxrwxr-x 1 torvalds torvalds 940265 2010-01-21 11:16 git-hash-object

Now, I'm not saying that 940kB is good either, but that's mostly all the
debug information - you can see the real code with 'size':

text data bss dec hex filename
418675 3920 127408 550003 86473 git-hash-object (before)
230650 2288 111728 344666 5425a git-hash-object (after)

ie we have a nice 24% size reduction from this trivial cleanup.

It's not just that one file either. I get:

[torvalds@nehalem git]$ du -s /home/torvalds/libexec/git-core
45640 /home/torvalds/libexec/git-core (before)
33508 /home/torvalds/libexec/git-core (after)

so we're talking 12MB of diskspace here.

(Of course, stripping all the binaries brings the 33MB down to 9MB, so the
whole debug information thing is still the bulk of it all, but that's a
separate issue entirely)

Now, I'm sure there are other things we should do, and changing our
compiler flags from -O2 to -Os would bring the text size down by an
additional almost 20%, but this thing Exal pointed out seems to be some
good low-hanging fruit.

merge-recursive: do not return NULL only to cause segfaultJunio C Hamano Fri, 22 Jan 2010 00:38:56 +0000 (16:38 -0800)

merge-recursive: do not return NULL only to cause segfault

merge-recursive calls write_tree_from_memory() to come up with a virtual
tree, with possible conflict markers inside the blob contents, while
merging multiple common ancestors down. It is a bug to call the function
with unmerged entries in the index, even if the merge to come up with the
common ancestor resulted in conflicts. Otherwise the result won't be
expressible as a tree object.

We _might_ want to suggest the user to set GIT_MERGE_VERBOSITY to 5 and
re-run the merge in the message. At least we will know which part of
process_renames() or process_entry() functions is not correctly handling
the unmerged paths, and it might help us diagnosing the issue.

Fix memory corruption when .gitignore does not end... Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy Wed, 20 Jan 2010 14:09:16 +0000 (21:09 +0700)

Fix memory corruption when .gitignore does not end by \n

Commit b5041c5 (Avoid writing to buffer in add_excludes_from_file_1())
tried not to append '\n' at the end because the next commit
may return a buffer that does not have extra space for that.

Unfortunately it left this assignment in the loop:

buf[i - (i && buf[i-1] == '\r')] = 0;

that can corrupt memory if "buf" is not '\n' terminated. But even if
it does not corrupt memory, the last line would not be
NULL-terminated, leading to errors later inside add_exclude().

This patch fixes it by reverting the faulty commit and make
sure "buf" is always \n terminated.

While at it, free unused memory properly.

Fix "log" family not to be too agressive about showing... Junio C Hamano Wed, 20 Jan 2010 21:59:36 +0000 (13:59 -0800)

Fix "log" family not to be too agressive about showing notes

Giving "Notes" information in the default output format of "log" and
"show" is a sensible progress (the user has asked for it by having the
notes), but for some commands (e.g. "format-patch") spewing notes into the
formatted commit log message without being asked is too aggressive.

Enable notes output only for "log", "show", "whatchanged" by default and
only when the user didn't ask any specific --pretty/--format from the
command line; users can explicitly override this default with --show-notes
and --no-notes option.

Parts of tests are taken from Jeff King's fix.

Fix "checkout A..." synonym for "checkout A...HEAD... Junio C Hamano Wed, 20 Jan 2010 03:30:06 +0000 (19:30 -0800)

Fix "checkout A..." synonym for "checkout A...HEAD" on Windows

When switching to a different commit, we first see the named rev exists
as a commit using lookup_commit_reference_gently(), and set new.path to
a string "refs/heads/" followed by the name the user gave us (but after
taking into special short-hands like @{-1} == "previous branch" and
"@{upstream}" == "the branch we merge with" into account). If the
resulting string names an existsing ref, then we are switching to that
branch (and will be building new commits on top of it); otherwise we are
detaching HEAD at that commit.

When the "master..." syntax is used as a short-hand for "master...HEAD",
we do want to detach HEAD at the merge base. However, on Windows, when
asked if ".git/refs/heads/master..." exists, the filesystem happily says
"it does" when ".git/refs/heads/master" exists.

Work this issue around by first calling check_ref_format(new.path) to see
if the string can possibly be a valid ref under "refs/heads/", before
asking resolve_ref().

We used to run another lookup_commit_reference(rev) even though we know it
succeeded and we have a good commit in new.commit already; this has been
with us from 782c2d6 (Build in checkout, 2008-02-07), the first version we
had "git checkout" implemented in C. Drop it.

status: don't require the repository to be writable

We need to update the index before hooks run when actually making a
commit, but we shouldn't have to write the index when running "status".
If we can, then we have already spent cycles to refresh the index and
it is a waste not to write it out, but it is not a disaster if we cannot
write it out. The main reason the user is running "git status" is to get
the "status", and refreshing the index is a mere side effect that we can
do without.

Makefile: honor NO_CURL when setting REMOTE_CURL_* variables

Previously, these variables were set before there was a chance to set
NO_CURL.

This made a difference only during 'make install', because by installing
$(REMOTE_CURL_ALIASES), the rule tries to access $(REMOTE_CURL_PRIMARY),
which was never installed. On Windows, this fails; on Unix, stale symbolic

rm: only refresh entries that we may touch

This gets rid of the whole tree cache refresh. Instead only path that
we touch will get refreshed. We may still lstat() more than needed,
but it'd be better playing safe.

This potentially reduces a large number of lstat() on big trees. Take
gentoo-x86 tree for example, which has roughly 80k files:
