Support coverage testing with GCC/gcovThomas Rast Thu, 19 Feb 2009 11:13:35 +0000 (12:13 +0100)

Support coverage testing with GCC/gcov

With gcc's --coverage option, we can perform automatic coverage data
collection for the test suite.

Add a new Makefile target 'coverage' that scraps all previous coverage
results, recompiles git with the required compiler/linker flags (in
addition to any flags you specify manually), then runs the test suite
and compiles a report.

The compilation must be done with all optimizations disabled, since
inlined functions (and for line-by-line coverage, also optimized
branches/loops) break coverage tracking.

The tests are run serially (with -j1). The coverage code should
theoretically allow concurrent access to its data files, but the
author saw random test failures. Obviously this could be improved.

The report currently consists of a list of functions that were never
executed during the tests, which is written to
'coverage-untested-functions'. Once this list becomes reasonably
short, we would also want to look at branches that were never taken.

Currently only toplevel *.c files are considered. It would be nice to
at least include xdiff, but --coverage did not save data to
subdirectories on the system used to write this (gcc 4.3.2).

gitweb: Hyperlink multiple git hashes on the same commi... Marcel M. Cary Wed, 18 Feb 2009 03:00:43 +0000 (19:00 -0800)

gitweb: Hyperlink multiple git hashes on the same commit message line

The current implementation only hyperlinks the first hash on
a given line of the commit message. It seems sensible to
highlight all of them if there are multiple, and it seems
plausible that there would be multiple even with a tidy line
length limit, because they can be abbreviated as short as 8
characters.

Benchmark:

I wanted to make sure that using the 'e' switch to the Perl regex
wasn't going to kill performance, since this is called once per commit
message line displayed.

In all three A/B scenarios I tried, the A and B yielded the same
results within 2%, where A is the version of code before this patch
and B is the version after.

1: View a commit message containing the last 1000 commit hashes
2: View a commit message containing 1000 lines of 40 dots to avoid
hyperlinking at the same message length
3: View a short merge commit message with a few lines of text and
no hashes

All were run in CGI mode on my sub-production hardware on a recent
clone of git.git. Numbers are the average of 10 reqests per second
with the first request discarded, since I expect this change to affect
primarily CPU usage. Measured with ApacheBench.

Note that the web page rendered was the same; while the new code
supports multiple hashes per line, there was at most one per line.

The primary purpose of scenarios 2 and 3 were to verify that the
addition of 1000 commit messages had an impact on how much of the time
was spent rendering commit messages. They were all within 2% of 0.80
requests per second (much faster).

So I think the patch has no noticeable effect on performance.

system_path(): simplify using strip_path_suffix(), and add suffix "git"

At least for the author of this patch, the logic in system_path() was
too hard to understand. Using the function strip_path_suffix() documents
the idea of the code better.

The real change is to add the suffix "git", so that a runtime prefix will
be computed correctly even when the executable was called in /git/ as is
the case in msysGit (Windows insists to search the current directory
before the PATH when looking for an executable).

Introduce the function strip_path_suffix()

The function strip_path_suffix() will try to strip a given suffix from
a given path. The suffix must start at a directory boundary (i.e. "core"
is not a path suffix of "libexec/git-core", but "git-core" is).

Arbitrary runs of directory separators ("slashes") are assumed identical.

Example:

strip_path_suffix("C:\\msysgit/\\libexec\\git-core",
"libexec///git-core", &prefix)

will set prefix to "C:\\msysgit" and return 0.

t4014 tests format-patch --thread since 7d812145, but the tests were
ineffective right from the start at least for bash and dash. The
loops of the form

for ...; do something || break; done

introduced by 7d812145 and 5d02294 always exit with status 0, even if
'something' failed, because 'break' returns 0 unless there was no loop
to break.

We take a rather different approach that uses an admittedly heinous
inline Perl script to mangle all interesting information into a format
that is invariant between runs. We can then test the full patch
sequence in one go (with --stdout), doing away with the loop problem.

verify_uptodate(): add ce_uptodate(ce) test

If we inside verify_uptodate() can already tell from the ce entry that
it is already uptodate by testing it with ce_uptodate(ce), there is no
need to call lstat(2) and ie_match_stat() afterwards.

And, reading from the commit log message from:

Avoid running lstat(2) on the same cache entry.

this also seems to be correct usage of the ce_uptodate() macro
introduced by that patch.

This will avoid lots of lstat(2) calls in some cases, for example
by running the 'git checkout' command.

make USE_NSEC work as expectedKjetil Barvik Thu, 19 Feb 2009 20:08:29 +0000 (21:08 +0100)

make USE_NSEC work as expected

Since the filesystem ext4 is now defined as stable in Linux v2.6.28,
and ext4 supports nanonsecond resolution timestamps natively, it is
time to make USE_NSEC work as expected.

This will make racy git situations less likely to happen. For 'git
checkout' this means it will be less likely that we have to open, read
the contents of the file into RAM, and check if file is really
modified or not. The result sould be a litle less used CPU time, less
pagefaults and a litle faster program, at least for 'git checkout'.

Since the number of possible racy git situations would increase when
disks gets faster, this patch would be more and more helpfull as times
go by. For a fast Solid State Disk, this patch should be helpfull.

Note that, when file operations starts to take less than 1 nanosecond,
one would again start to get more racy git situations.

Notice the memmove line, where the CPU did 7710 / 277 = 27.8 cycles
per instruction, and compared to the total cycles spent inside the
source code of GIT for this command, all the memmove() calls
translates to (7710 * 100) / 14775 = 52.2% of this.

Retesting with a GIT program compiled for gcov usage, I found out that
the memmove() calls came from remove_index_entry_at() in read-cache.c,
where we have:

memmove(istate->cache + pos,
istate->cache + pos + 1,
(istate->cache_nr - pos) * sizeof(struct cache_entry *));

remove_index_entry_at() is called 4902 times from check_updates() in
unpack-trees.c, and each time called we move each cache_entry pointers
(from the removed one) one step to the left.

Since we have 28828 entries in the cache this time, and if we on
average move half of them each time, we in total move approximately
4902 * 0.5 * 28828 * 4 = 282 629 712 bytes, or twice this amount if
each pointer is 8 bytes (64 bit).

OK, is seems that the function check_updates() is called 28 times, so
the estimated guess above had been more correct if check_updates() had
been called only once, but the point is: we get lots of bytes moved.

To fix this, and use an O(N) algorithm instead, where N is the number
of cache_entries, we delete/remove all entries in one loop through all
entries.

From a retest, the new remove_marked_cache_entries() from the patch
below, ended up with the following output line from oprofile:

46 0.0105 15 0.0041 git remove_marked_cache_entries

If we can trust the numbers from oprofile in this case, we saved
approximately ((7710 - 46) * 20000) / (2 * 1000 * 1000 * 1000) = 0.077
seconds CPU time with this fix for this particular test. And notice
that now the CPU did only 46 / 15 = 3.1 cycles/instruction.

Usually, refreshing the index makes those empty diffs go away.
However, when not using the index they are not very useful and
there is no option to suppress them.

This forces on the skip_stat_unmatch option for diff --no-index,
suppressing any empty diffs. This option is also used for diffs
against the index when "diff.autorefreshindex" is set, but that

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.

imap.preformattedHTML to tell Thunderbird to send non-flowed text

Many e-mail based development communities require non-flowed text to carry
patches to prevent whitespaces from getting mangled, but there is no easy
way to tell Thunderbird MUA not to use format=flowed, unless you configure
it to do so unconditionally for all outgoing mails.

A workaround for users who use git-imap-send is to wrap the patch in "pre"
element in the draft folder as an HTML message, and tell Thunderbird to
send "text only". Thunderbird turns such a message into a non-flowed
plain text when sending it out, which is what we want for patch e-mails.

send-email: --suppress-cc improvements

Since 6564828 (git-send-email: Generalize auto-cc recipient
mechanism., 2007-12-25) we can suppress automatic Cc generation
separately for each of the possible address sources. However,
--suppress-cc=sob suppressed both SOB lines and body (but not header)
Cc lines, contrary to the name.

Change --suppress-cc=sob to mean only SOB lines, and add separate
choices 'bodycc' (body Cc lines) and 'body' (both 'sob' and 'bodycc').
The option --no-signed-off-by-cc now acts like --suppress-cc=sob,
which is not backwards compatible but matches the name of the option.

Also update the documentation and add a few tests.

documentation and test updates.

send-email: handle multiple Cc addresses when reading mbox message

When git format-patch is given multiple --cc arguments, it generates a
Cc header that looks like:

Cc: first@example.com,
second@example.com,
third@example.com

Before this commit, send-email was unable to handle such a message as it
did not handle folded header lines, nor multiple recipients in a Cc
line.

This patch:

- Unfolds header lines by pre-processing the header before extracting
any of its fields.

- Handles Cc lines with multiple recipients.

- Adds use of Mail::Address if available for splitting Cc line and
the "Who should the emails be sent to?" prompt", with fall back to
existing split_addrs() function.

- Tests the new functionality and adds two tests for detecting whether
"From:" appears correctly in message body when patch author differs
from patch sender.

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.

Revert "validate_headref: tighten ref-matching to just branches"

This reverts commit b229d18a809c169314b7f0d048dc5a7632e8f916, at least
until we figure out how to work better with TopGit that points HEAD to

Bugfix: GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF with more than one changed files

When there is more than one file that are changed, running git diff with
GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF incorrectly diagnoses an programming error and dies.
The check introduced in 479b0ae (diff: refactor tempfile cleanup handling,
2009-01-22) to detect a temporary file slot that forgot to remove its
temporary file was inconsistent with the way the codepath to remove the
temporary to mark the slot that it is done with it.

This patch fixes this problem and adds a test case for it.

Support "\" in non-wildcard exclusion entriesFinn Arne Gangstad Tue, 10 Feb 2009 14:20:17 +0000 (15:20 +0100)

Support "\" in non-wildcard exclusion entries

"\" was treated differently in exclude rules depending on whether a
wildcard match was done. For wildcard rules, "\" was de-escaped in
fnmatch, but this was not done for other rules since they used strcmp
instead. A file named "#foo" would not be excluded by "\#foo", but would
be excluded by "\#foo*".

We now treat all rules with "\" as wildcard rules.

Another solution could be to de-escape all non-wildcard rules as we
read them, but we would have to do the de-escaping exactly as fnmatch
does it to avoid inconsistencies.

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.

fast-export: ensure we traverse commits in topological order

fast-export will only list as parents those commits which have already
been traversed (making it appear as if merges have been squashed if not
all parents have been traversed). To avoid this silent squashing of
merge commits, we request commits in topological order.

filter-branch: Add more error-handling

9273b56 (filter-branch: Fix fatal error on bare repositories, 2009-02-03)
fixed a missing check of return status from an underlying command in
git-filter-branch, but there still are places that do not check errors.
For example, the command does not pay attention to the exit status of the
command given by --commit-filter. It should abort in such a case.

This attempts to fix all the remaining places that fails to checks errors.

In two places, I've had to break apart pipelines in order to check the
error code for the first stage of the pipeline, as discussed here:

http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/git/2009/1/28/4835614

If .git/HEAD is not readable, __git_ps1 does nothing.

If --is-in-git-dir, __git_ps1 returns " (GIT_DIR!)" as a cautionary
note. The previous behavior would show the branch name (and would
optionally attempt to determine the dirtyState of the directory, which
was impossible because a "git diff" was used).

If --is-in-work-tree, __git_ps1 returns the branch name. Additionally,
if showDirtyState is on, the dirty state is displayed.

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
number scanned thus far to let the user know something is still
happening.

an expensive check for broken symlinks that exist in some

repositories with many empty blobs that are not supposed to be
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).
