fix reflog approxidate parsing bugJeff King Wed, 30 Apr 2008 04:13:58 +0000 (00:13 -0400)

fix reflog approxidate parsing bug

In get_sha1_basic, we parse a string like

HEAD@{10 seconds ago}:path/to/file

into its constituent ref, reflog date, and path components.
We never actually munge the string itself, but instead keep
offsets into the string with their associated lengths.

When we call approxidate on the contents inside braces,
however, we pass just a string without a length. This means
that approxidate could sometimes look past the closing brace
and (erroneously) interpret the rest of the string as part
of the date.

t5516: remove ambiguity test (1)

This test tried to push into a remote with ambiguous refs in
remotes/$x/master and remotes/$y/master. However, the remote
never actually tells us about the refs/remotes hierarchy, so
we don't even see this ambiguity.

The test happened to pass because we were simply looking for
failure, and the test fails for another reason: the dst
refspec does not exist and does not begin with refs/, making
it invalid.

git-svn bug with blank commits and author file

When trying to import from svn using an author file, git-svn bails out
if it encounters a blank author. The attached patch changes this
behavior and allow using the author file with blanks authors.

I came across this bug while importing from a cvs2svn repo where the

git-bisect: make "start", "good" and "skip" succeed or fail atomically

Before this patch, when "git bisect start", "git bisect good" or
"git bisect skip" were called with many revisions, they could fail
after having already marked some revisions as "good", "bad" or
"skip".

This could be especilally bad for "git bisect start" because as
the file ".git/BISECT_NAMES" would not have been written, there
would have been no attempt to clear the marked revisions on a
"git bisect reset". That's because if there is no
".git/BISECT_NAMES" file, nothing is done to clean things up, as
the bisect session is not supposed to have started.

While at it, let's also create the ".git/BISECT_START" file, only
after ".git/BISECT_NAMES" as been created.

When the Subject: line is empty for whatever reason, git-am was fooled by

This moves the logic around so that we do not keep $SUBJECT in a separate
variable. Instead, $dotest/msg-clean, which used to be the log message
body extracted from the message and then trailing whitespaces cleansed
out, now contains the subject line followed by a blank line at the

bisect: squelch "fatal: ref HEAD not a symref" misleading message

To get the current HEAD when we start bisecting using for example
"git bisect start", we first try "git symbolic-ref HEAD" to get a
nice name, and if it fails, we fall back to "git rev-parse
--verify HEAD".

The problem is that when "git symbolic-ref HEAD" fails, it
displays "fatal: ref HEAD not a symref", so it looks like "git
bisect start" failed and does not accept detached HEAD, even if
in fact it worked fine.

This patch adds "-q" option to the "git symbolic-ref" call to

does not apply.

Previous wording mentioning GIT_AUTHOR, GIT_COMMITTER variables was
unclear that we really meant GIT_AUTHOR_(NAME|EMAIL), etc.

Note that the .ssh/environment file is a good place to set these, and that

bisect: fix bad rev checking in "git bisect good"

It seems that "git bisect good" and "git bisect skip" have never
properly checked arguments that have been passed to them. As soon
as one of them can be parsed as a SHA1, no error or warning would
be given.

This is because 'git rev-parse --revs-only --no-flags "$@"' always
"exit 0" and outputs all the SHA1 it can found from parsing "$@".

This patch fix this by using, for each "bisect good" argument, the
same logic as for the "bisect bad" argument.

While at it, this patch teaches "bisect bad" to give a meaningfull
error message when it is passed more than one argument.

Note that if "git bisect good" or "git bisect skip" is given some
proper revs and then something that is not a proper rev, then the
first proper revs will still have been marked as "good" or "skip".

Fix "git apply" to correctly enforce "match at the beginning"

An earlier commit 4be6096 (apply --unidiff-zero: loosen sanity checks for
--unidiff=0 patches, 2006-09-17) made match_beginning and match_end
computed incorrectly. If a hunk inserts at the beginning, old position
recorded at the hunk is line 0, and if a hunk changes at the beginning, it
is line 1. The new test added to t4104 exposes that the old code did not
insist on matching at the beginning for a patch to add a line to an empty
file.

An even older 65aadb9 (apply: force matching at the beginning.,
2006-05-24) was equally wrong in that it tried to take hints from the
number of leading context lines, to decide if the hunk must match at the
beginning, but we can just look at the line number in the hunk to decide.

format-patch: generate MIME header as needed even when there is format.header

Earlier, the callchain from pretty_print_commit() down to pp_title_line()
had an unwarranted assumption that the presense of "after_subject"
parameter, means the caller has already output MIME headers for
attachments. The parameter's primary purpose is to give extra header
lines the caller wants to place after pp_title_line() generates the
"Subject: " line.

This assumption does not hold when the user used the format.header
configuration variable to pass extra headers, and caused a message with
non-ASCII character to lack proper MIME headers (e.g. 8-bit CTE header).
The earlier logic also failed to suppress duplicated MIME headers when
"format-patch -s --attach" is asked for and the signer's name demanded
8-bit clean transport.

This patch fixes the logic by introducing a separate need_8bit_cte
parameter passed down the callchain. This can have one of these values:

-1 : we've already done MIME crap and we do not want to add extra header
to say this is 8bit in pp_title_line();

0 : we haven't done MIME and we have not seen anything that is 8bit yet;

1 : we haven't done MIME and we have seen something that is 8bit;
pp_title_line() must add MIME header.

It adds two tests by Jeff King who independently diagnosed this issue.

git-new-workdir: Share SVN meta data between work dirs and the repository

Multiple work dirs with git svn caused each work dir to have its own
stale copy of the SVN meta data in .git/svn

git svn rebase updates commits with git-svn-id: in the repository and
stores the SVN meta data information only in that work dir. Attempting to
git svn rebase in other work dirs for the same branch would fail because
the last revision fetched according to the git-svn-id is greater than the
revision in the SVN meta data for that work directory.

rev-parse: fix meaning of rev~ vs rev~0.Linus Torvalds Fri, 14 Mar 2008 18:49:40 +0000 (11:49 -0700)

rev-parse: fix meaning of rev~ vs rev~0.

I think it would make more sense for rev~ to have the same guarantees that
rev^ has, namely to always return a commit. I would also suggest that not
giving a number would have the same effect of defaulting to 1, not 0.

Right now it's a bit illogical, but at least it's an _undocumented_
illogical behaviour.

This patch makes '^' and '~' act the same for the default count (i.e. both
default to 1), and also have the same behaviour for a count of zero.

Before (no discernible pattern):

[torvalds@woody git]$ git rev-parse v1.5.1 v1.5.1^0 v1.5.1~0 v1.5.1^ v1.5.1~
45354a57ee7e3e42c7137db6c94fa968c6babe8d

git fetch: Take '-n' to mean '--no-tags'Johannes Schindelin Thu, 13 Mar 2008 07:13:15 +0000 (08:13 +0100)

git fetch: Take '-n' to mean '--no-tags'

Prior to commit 8320199 (Rewrite builtin-fetch option parsing to use
parse_options().), we understood '-n' as a short option to mean "don't
fetch tags from the remote". This patch reinstates behaviour similar,
but not identical to the pre commit 8320199 times.

Back then, -n always overrode --tags, so if both --tags and -n was
given on command-line, no tags were fetched regardless of argument
ordering. Now we use a "last entry wins" strategy, so '-n --tags'
means "fetch tags".

Since it's patently absurd to say both --tags and --no-tags, this
shouldn't matter in practice.

gitweb: Fix bug in href(..., -replay=>1) when using 'pathinfo' form

URLs generated by href(..., -replay=>1) (which includes 'next page'
links and alternate view links) didn't set project info correctly
when current page URL is in pathinfo form.

This resulted in broken links such like:

http://www.example.com/w/ARRAY(0x85a5318)?a=shortlog;pg=1

if the 'pathinfo' feature was used, or

http://www.example.com/w/?a=shortlog;pg=1

if it wasn't, instead of correct:

http://www.example.com/w/project.git?a=shortlog;pg=1

This was caused by the fact that href() always replays params in the
arrayref form, were they multivalued or singlevalued, and the code
dealing with 'pathinfo' feature couldn't deal with $params{'project'}
being arrayref.

Setting $params{'project'} is moved before replaying params; this
ensures that 'project' parameter is processed correctly.

launch_editor(): allow spaces in the filenameJohannes Schindelin Tue, 11 Mar 2008 09:56:30 +0000 (10:56 +0100)

launch_editor(): allow spaces in the filename

The construct

sh -c "$0 \"$@\"" <editor> <file>

does not pick up quotes in <editor>, so you cannot give path to the
editor that has a shell IFS whitespace in it, and also give it initial
set of parameters and flags. Replace $0 with <editor> to fix this issue.

This fixes

git config core.editor '"c:/Program Files/What/Ever.exe"'

In other words, you can specify an editor with spaces in its path using a
config containing something like this:

[core]
editor = \"c:/Program Files/Darn/Spaces.exe\"

NOTE: we cannot just replace the $0 with \"$0\", because we still want
this to work:

Fix dcommit, rebase when rewriteRoot is in useJohn Goerzen Sat, 8 Mar 2008 22:04:05 +0000 (16:04 -0600)

Fix dcommit, rebase when rewriteRoot is in use

When the rewriteRoot setting is used with git-svn, it causes the svn
IDs added to commit messages to bear a different URL than is actually
used to retrieve Subversion data.

It is common for Subversion repositories to be available multiple
ways: for instance, HTTP to the public, and svn+ssh to people with
commit access. The need to switch URLs for access is fairly common as
well -- perhaps someone was just given commit access. To switch URLs
without having to rewrite history, one can use the old url as a
rewriteRoot, and use the new one in the svn-remote url setting.

This works well for svn fetching and general git commands.

However, git-svn dcommit, rebase, and perhaps other commands do not
work in this scenario. They scan the svn ID lines in commit messages
and attempt to match them up with url lines in [svn-remote] sections
in the git config.

This patch allows them to match rewriteRoot options, if such options
are present.

Really make the LF after reset in fast-import optional

cmd_from() ends with a call to read_next_command(), which is needed
when using cmd_from() from commands where from is not the last element.

With reset, however, "from" is the last command, after which the flow
returns to the main loop, which calls read_next_command() again.

Because of this, always set unread_command_buf in cmd_reset_branch(),
even if cmd_from() was successful.

git-merge.sh: better handling of combined --squash... Gerrit Pape Mon, 3 Mar 2008 09:22:03 +0000 (09:22 +0000)

git-merge.sh: better handling of combined --squash,--no-ff,--no-commit options

git-merge used to use either the --squash,--no-squash, --no-ff,--ff,
--no-commit,--commit option, whichever came last in the command line.
This lead to some un-intuitive behavior, having

git merge --no-commit --no-ff <branch>

actually commit the merge. Now git-merge respects --no-commit together
with --no-ff, as well as other combinations of the options. However,
this broke a selftest in t/t7600-merge.sh which expected to have --no-ff
completely override the --squash option, so that

git merge --squash --no-ff <branch>

fast-forwards, and makes a merge commit; combining --squash with --no-ff
doesn't really make sense though, and is now refused by git-merge. The
test is adapted to test --no-ff without the preceding --squash, and
another test is added to make sure the --squash --no-ff combination is
refused.

revert: actually check for a dirty index

The previous code mistakenly used wt_status_prepare to check whether the
index had anything commitable in it; however, that function is just an
init function, and will never report a dirty index.

The correct way with wt_status_* would be to call wt_status_print with the
output pointing to /dev/null or similar. However, that does extra work by
both examining the working tree and spewing status information to nowhere.

Instead, let's just implement the useful subset of wt_status_print as an
"is_index_dirty" function.

tests: introduce test_must_failJunio C Hamano Thu, 28 Feb 2008 21:09:30 +0000 (13:09 -0800)

tests: introduce test_must_fail

When we expect a git command to notice and signal errors, we
carelessly wrote in our tests:

test_expect_success 'reject bogus request' '
do something &&
do something else &&
! git command
'

but a non-zero exit could come from the "git command" segfaulting.

A new helper function "tset_must_fail" is introduced and it is
meant to be used to make sure the command gracefully fails (iow,
dying and exiting with non zero status is counted as a failure
to "gracefully fail"). The above example should be written as:

test_expect_success 'reject bogus request' '
do something &&
do something else &&
test_must_fail git command
'

receive-pack: Initialize PATH to include exec-dir.Björn Steinbrink Mon, 3 Mar 2008 04:08:43 +0000 (05:08 +0100)

receive-pack: Initialize PATH to include exec-dir.

511707d (use only the $PATH for exec'ing git commands) made it a
requirement to call setup_path() to include the git exec-dir in PATH
before spawning any other git commands. git-receive-pack was not yet
adapted to do this and therefore fails to spawn git-unpack-objects if that
is not in the standard PATH.

git-status used the buffer name to find git-status buffers, and that

If the user tries to commit their changes without actually staging
anything we used to display an informational dialog suggesting they
first stage those changes, then retry the commit feature.

Unfortunately I broke this in aba15f7 ("Ensure error dialogs always
appear over all other windows") and failed to fix it in the paper

Set proxy override with http_init()Mike Hommey Wed, 27 Feb 2008 20:35:50 +0000 (21:35 +0100)

Set proxy override with http_init()

In transport.c, proxy setting (the one from the remote conf) was set through
curl_easy_setopt() call, while http.c already does the same with the
http.proxy setting. We now just use this infrastructure instead, and make
http_init() now take the struct remote as argument so that it can take the
http_proxy setting from there, and any other property that would be added
later.

At the same time, we make get_http_walker() take a struct remote argument
too, and pass it to http_init(), which makes remote defined proxy be used
for more than get_refs_via_curl().

We leave out http-fetch and http-push, which don't use remotes for the
moment, purposefully.

daemon: send more error messages to the syslog

There were a number of die() calls before the syslog was opened; hence,
these error messages would have been sent to /dev/null in detached mode.
Now we install the daemon-specific die routine before any error message is
generated so that these messages go to the syslog.
