filter-branch -d: Export GIT_DIR earlier

The improved error handling catches a bug in filter-branch when using
-d pointing to a path outside any git repository:

$ git filter-branch -d /tmp/foo master
fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git

This error message comes from git for-each-ref in line 224. GIT_DIR is
set correctly by git-sh-setup (to the foo.git repository), but not
exported (yet).

git-svn: fix parsing of timestamp obtained from svn

Ward Wouts reports that git-svn barfed like this:

Unable to parse date: 2004-03-09T09:44:33.Z at /usr/bin/git-svn line 3995

The parse_svn_date sub expects there always are one or more digits after

and results in a failure like this.

The fix is based on the original fix by the reporter, further cleaned up.

gitweb: Fix warnings with override permitted but no... Marcel M. Cary Wed, 18 Feb 2009 13:09:41 +0000 (14:09 +0100)

gitweb: Fix warnings with override permitted but no repo override

When a feature like "blame" is permitted to be overridden in the
repository configuration but it is not actually set in the repository,
a warning is emitted due to the undefined value of the repository
configuration, even though it's a perfectly normal condition.
Emitting warning is grounds for test failure in the gitweb test
script.

This error was caused by rewrite of git_get_project_config from using
"git config [<type>] <name>" for each individual configuration
variable checked to parsing "git config --list --null" output in
commit b201927 (gitweb: Read repo config using 'git config -z -l').
Earlier version of git_get_project_config was returning empty string
if variable do not exist in config; newer version is meant to return
undef in this case, therefore change in feature_bool was needed.

Additionally config_to_* subroutines were meant to be invoked only if
configuration variable exists; therefore we added early return to
git_get_project_config: it now returns no value if variable does not
exists in config. Otherwise config_to_* subroutines (config_to_bool
in paryicular) wouldn't be able to distinguish between the case where
variable does not exist and the case where variable doesn't have value
(the "[section] noval" case, which evaluates to true for boolean).

While at it fix bug in config_to_bool, where checking if $val is
defined (if config variable has value) was done _after_ stripping
leading and trailing whitespace, which lead to 'Use of uninitialized
value' warning.

Add test case for features overridable but not overriden in repo
config, and case for no value boolean configuration variable.

gitweb: fix wrong base URL when non-root DirectoryIndexGiuseppe Bilotta Sun, 15 Feb 2009 09:18:36 +0000 (10:18 +0100)

gitweb: fix wrong base URL when non-root DirectoryIndex

CGI::url() has some issues when rebuilding the script URL if the script
is a DirectoryIndex.

One of these issue is the inability to strip PATH_INFO, which is why
we had to do it ourselves.

Another issue is that the resulting URL cannot be used for the <base>
tag: it works if we're the DirectoryIndex at the root level, but not
otherwise.

We fix this by building the proper base URL ourselves, and improve the
comment about the need to strip PATH_INFO manually while we're at it.

Additionally t/t9500-gitweb-standalone-no-errors.sh had to be modified
to set SCRIPT_NAME variable (CGI standard states that it MUST be set,
and now gitweb uses it if PATH_INFO is not empty, as is the case for
some of tests in t9500).

use a hash of the lock token as the suffix for PUT/MOVE

After 753bc91 ("Remove the requirement opaquelocktoken uri scheme"),
lock tokens are in the URI forms in which they are received from the
server, eg. 'opaquelocktoken:', 'urn:uuid:'.

However, "start_put" (and consequently "start_move"), which attempts to
create a unique temporary file using the UUID of the lock token,
inadvertently uses the lock token in its URI form. These file
operations on the server may not be successful (specifically, in
Windows), due to the colon ':' character from the URI form of the lock
token in the file path.

This patch uses a hash of the lock token instead, guaranteeing only
"safe" characters (a-f, 0-9) are used in the file path.

The token's hash is generated when the lock token is received from the
server in handle_new_lock_ctx, minimizing the number of times of
hashing.

symbolic-ref: allow refs/<whatever> in HEAD

Commit afe5d3d5 introduced a safety valve to symbolic-ref to
disallow installing an invalid HEAD. It was accompanied by
b229d18a, which changed validate_headref to require that
HEAD contain a pointer to refs/heads/ instead of just refs/.
Therefore, the safety valve also checked for refs/heads/.

As it turns out, topgit is using refs/top-bases/ in HEAD,
leading us to re-loosen (at least temporarily) the
validate_headref check made in b229d18a. This patch does the
corresponding loosening for the symbolic-ref safety valve,
so that the two are in agreement once more.

Make repack less likely to corrupt repository

Some platforms refuse to rename a file that is open. When repacking an
already packed repository without adding any new object, the resulting
pack will contain the same set of objects as an existing pack, and on such
platforms, a newly created packfile cannot replace the existing one.

The logic detected this issue but did not try hard enough to recover from
it. Especially because the files that needs renaming come in pairs, there
potentially are different failure modes that one can be renamed but the
others cannot. Asking manual recovery to end users were error prone.

This patch tries to make it more robust by first making sure all the
existing files that need to be renamed have been renamed before
continuing, and attempts to roll back if some failed to rename.

This is based on an initial patch by Robin Rosenberg.

Fix contrib/hooks/post-receive-email for new duplicate branch

In the show_new_revisions function, the original code:

git rev-parse --not --branches | grep -v $(git rev-parse $refname) |

isn't quite right since one can create a new branch and push it
without any new commits. In that case, two refs will have the same
sha1 but both would get filtered by the 'grep'. In the end, we'll
show ALL the history which is not what we want. Instead, we should
list the branches by name and remove the branch being updated and THEN
pass that list through rev-parse.

Revised as suggested by Jakub Narebski and Junio C Hamano to use
git-for-each-ref instead of git-branch. (Thanks!)

Clear the delta base cache if a pack is rebuiltShawn O. Pearce Wed, 11 Feb 2009 18:15:30 +0000 (10:15 -0800)

Clear the delta base cache if a pack is rebuilt

There is some risk that re-opening a regenerated pack file with
different offsets could leave stale entries within the delta base
cache that could be matched up against other objects using the same
"struct packed_git*" and pack offset.

Throwing away the entire delta base cache in this case is safer,
as we don't have to worry about a recycled "struct packed_git*"
matching to the wrong base object, resulting in delta apply
errors while unpacking an object.

git-svn: Print revision while searching for earliest use of path

When initializing a git-svn repository from a Subversion repoository,
it is common to be interested in a path which did not exist in the
initial commit to Subversion. In a large repository, the initial fetch
may take some looking for the earliest existence of the path time while
the user receives no additional feedback. Print the highest revision

Since dbc6c74d0858d77e61e092a48d467e725211f8e9, git-svn has had
an expensive check for broken symlinks that exist in some

symlinks.

The workaround is enabled by default; and may be disabled via:

revision traversal and pack: notice and die on missing commit

cc0e6c5 (Handle return code of parse_commit in revision machinery,
2007-05-04) attempted to tighten error checking in the revision machinery,
but it wasn't enough. When get_revision_1() was asked for the next commit
to return, it tries to read and simplify the parents of the commit to be
returned, but an error while doing so was silently ignored and reported as
a truncated history to the caller instead.

This resulted in an early end of "git log" output or a pack that lacks
older commits from "git pack-objects", without any error indication in the
exit status from these commands, even though the underlying parse_commit()
issues an error message to the end user.

Note that the codepath in add_parents_list() that paints parents of an
UNINTERESTING commit UNINTERESTING silently ignores the error when
parse_commit() fails; this is deliberate and in line with aeeae1b
(revision traversal: allow UNINTERESTING objects to be missing,
2009-01-27).

Deleting the current branch from a remote will result in the next clone
from it not check out anything, among other things. It also is one of the
cause that makes remotes/origin/HEAD a dangling symbolic ref. This patch
still allows the traditional behaviour but with a big warning, and promises

Generalize and libify index_is_dirty() to index_differs... Stephan Beyer Tue, 10 Feb 2009 14:30:35 +0000 (15:30 +0100)

Generalize and libify index_is_dirty() to index_differs_from(...)

index_is_dirty() in builtin-revert.c checks if the index is dirty.
This patch generalizes this function to check if the index differs
from a revision, i.e. the former index_is_dirty() behavior can now be
achieved by index_differs_from("HEAD", 0).

The second argument "diff_flags" allows to set further diff option
flags like DIFF_OPT_IGNORE_SUBMODULES. See DIFF_OPT_* macros in diff.h
for a list.

index_differs_from() seems to be useful for more than builtin-revert.c,
so it is moved into diff-lib.c and also used in builtin-commit.c.

Yet to mention:

- "rev.abbrev = 0;" can be safely removed.
This has no impact on performance or functioning of neither
setup_revisions() nor run_diff_index().

- rev.pending.objects is free()d because this fixes a leak.
(Also see 295dd2ad "Fix memory leak in traverse_commit_list")

Modernize t5400 test scriptJunio C Hamano Mon, 9 Feb 2009 21:39:52 +0000 (13:39 -0800)

Modernize t5400 test script

Many tests checked for failure by hand without using test_must_fail (they
probably predate the shell function).

When we know the desired outcome, explicitly check for it, instead of
checking if the result does not match one possible incorrect outcome.
E.g. if you expect a push to be refused, you do not test if the result is
different from what was pushed. Instead, make sure that the ref did not
before and after the push.

The test sequence chdir'ed around and any failure at one point could have
started the next test in an unexpected directory. Fix this problem by
using subshells as necessary.

add -p: get rid of Git.pm warnings about unitialized values

After invoking git add -p I always got the warnings:

Use of uninitialized value $_[3] in exec at Git.pm line 1282.
Use of uninitialized value $args[2] in join or string at Git.pm line 1264.

A bisect showed that these warnings occur in a301973 "add -p: print errors
in separate color" the first time.

They can be reproduced by setting color.ui (or color.interactive) to "auto"
and unsetting color.interactive.help and color.interactive.error.
I am using Perl 5.10.0.

The reason of the warning is that color.interactive.error defaults to
color.interactive.help which defaults to nothing in the specific codepath.
It defaults to 'red bold' some lines above which could lead to the wrong
assumption that it always defaults to 'red bold' now.

This patch lets it default to 'red bold', blowing the warnings away.

Future mailmap code will use this construct to enable

that the entries in mailmap.file will override the entries
in "./.mailmap", should they match.

gitweb: Better regexp for SHA-1 committag match

Make SHA-1 regexp to be turned into hyperlink (the SHA-1 committag)
to match word boundary at the beginning and the end. This way we
reduce number of false matches, for example we now don't match
0x74a5cd01 which is hex decimal (for example memory address),
but is not SHA-1.

submodule: warn about non-submodules

Earlier, when you called

git submodule some/bogus/path

Git would silently ignore the path, without warning the user about the
likely mistake. Now it does.

Let ls-files strip trailing slashes in submodules' paths

Tab completion makes it easy to add a trailing slash to a submodule path.
As it is completely clear what the user actually wanted to say, be nice
and strip that slash at the end.

Test and fix normalize_path_copy()Johannes Sixt Sat, 7 Feb 2009 15:08:30 +0000 (16:08 +0100)

Test and fix normalize_path_copy()

This changes the test-path-utils utility to invoke normalize_path_copy()
instead of normalize_absolute_path() because the latter is about to be
removed.

The test cases in t0060 are adjusted in two regards:

- normalize_path_copy() more often leaves a trailing slash in the result.
This has no negative side effects because the new user of this function,
longest_ancester_length(), already accounts for this behavior.

- The function can fail.

The tests uncover a flaw in normalize_path_copy(): If there are
sufficiently many '..' path components so that the root is reached, such as
in "/d1/s1/../../d2", then the leading slash was lost. This manifested
itself that (assuming there is a repository at /tmp/foo)

$ git add /d1/../tmp/foo/some-file

reported 'pathspec is outside repository'. This is now fixed.

Moreover, the test case descriptions of t0060 now include the test data and
expected outcome.

Fix GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES on WindowsRené Scharfe Sat, 7 Feb 2009 15:08:29 +0000 (16:08 +0100)

Fix GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES on Windows

Using git with GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES crashed on Windows due to a failed
assertion in normalize_absolute_path(): This function expects absolute
paths to start with a slash, while on Windows they can start with a drive
letter or a backslash.

This fixes it by using the alternative, normalize_path_copy() instead,
which can handle Windows-style paths just fine.

Secondly, the portability macro PATH_SEP is used instead of expecting
colons to be used as path list delimiter.

The test script t1504 is also changed to help MSYS's bash recognize some
program arguments as path list. (MSYS's bash must translate POSIX-style
path lists to Windows-style path lists, and the heuristic did not catch
some cases.)

Move sanitary_path_copy() to path.c and rename it to normalize_path_copy()

This function and normalize_absolute_path() do almost the same thing. The
former already works on Windows, but the latter crashes.

In subsequent changes we will remove normalize_absolute_path(). Here we
make the replacement function reusable. On the way we rename it to reflect
that it does some path normalization. Apart from that this is only moving
around code.

tree.c: allow read_tree_recursive() to traverse gitlink... Lars Hjemli Sun, 25 Jan 2009 00:52:05 +0000 (01:52 +0100)

tree.c: allow read_tree_recursive() to traverse gitlink entries

When the callback function invoked from read_tree_recursive() returns
the value `READ_TREE_RECURSIVE` for a gitlink entry, the traversal will
now continue into the tree connected to the gitlinked commit. This
functionality can be used to allow inter-repository operations, but
since the current users of read_tree_recursive() does not yet support
such operations, they have been modified where necessary to make sure
that they never return READ_TREE_RECURSIVE for gitlink entries (hence
no change in behaviour should be introduces by this patch alone).
