prepare_packed_git(): sort packs by age and localness.

When accessing objects, we first look for them in packs that
are linked together in the reverse order of discovery.

Since younger packs tend to contain more recent objects, which
are more likely to be accessed often, and local packs tend to
contain objects more relevant to our specific projects, sort the
list of packs before starting to access them. In addition,
favoring local packs over the ones borrowed from alternates can
be a win when alternates are mounted on network file systems.

glossary: fix overoptimistic automatic linking of defined terms

The script sort_glossary.pl turns each use of "term" into a link to the
definition of "term". To avoid mangling links like

gitlink:git-term[1]

it doesn't replace any occurence of "term" preceded by "link:git-".
This fails for gitlink:git-symbolic-ref[1] when substituting for "ref".

So instead just refuse to replace anything preceded by a "-".
That could result in missing some opportunities, but that's a less
annoying error.

Actually I find the automatic substitution a little distracting; some
day maybe we should just run it once and commit the result, so it can
be hand-tuned.

Use atomic updates to the fast-import mark file

When we allow fast-import frontends to reload a mark file from a
prior session we want to let them use the same file as they exported
the marks to. This makes it very simple for the frontend to save
state across incremental imports.

But we don't want to lose the old marks table if anything goes wrong
while writing our current marks table. So instead of truncating and
overwriting the path specified to --export-marks we use the standard
lockfile code to write the current marks out to a temporary file,
then rename it over the old marks table.

Teach receive-pack to run pre-receive/post-receive... Shawn O. Pearce Wed, 7 Mar 2007 21:52:05 +0000 (16:52 -0500)

Teach receive-pack to run pre-receive/post-receive hooks

Bill Lear pointed out that it is easy to send out notifications of
changes with the update hook, but successful execution of the update
hook does not necessarily mean that the ref was actually updated.
Lock contention on the ref or being unable to append to the reflog
may prevent the ref from being changed. Sending out notifications
prior to the ref actually changing is very misleading.

To help this situation I am introducing two new hooks to the
receive-pack flow: pre-receive and post-receive. These new hooks
are invoked only once per receive-pack execution and are passed
three arguments per ref (refname, old-sha1, new-sha1).

The new post-receive hook is ideal for sending out notifications,
as it has the complete list of all refnames that were successfully
updated as well as the old and new SHA-1 values. This allows more
interesting notifications to be sent. Multiple ref updates could
be easily summarized into one email, for example.

The new pre-receive hook is ideal for logging update attempts, as it
is run only once for the entire receive-pack operation. It can also
be used to verify multiple updates happen at once, e.g. an update
to the `maint` head must also be accompained by a new annotated tag.

Lots of documentation improvements for receive-pack are included
in this change, as we want to make sure the new hooks are clearly
explained.

Refactor handling of error_string in receive-packShawn O. Pearce Wed, 7 Mar 2007 21:51:59 +0000 (16:51 -0500)

Refactor handling of error_string in receive-pack

I discovered we did not send an ng line in the report-status feedback
if the ref was not updated because the repository has the config
option receive.denyNonFastForwards enabled. I think the reason this
happened is that it is simply too easy to forget to set error_string
when returning back a failure from update()

We now return an ng line for a non-fastforward update, which in
turn will cause send-pack to exit with a non-zero exit status.
Hence the modified test.

This refactoring changes update to return a const char* describing
the error, which execute_commands always loads into error_string.
The result is what I think is cleaner code, and allows us to
initialize the error_string member to NULL when we read_head_info.

I want error_string to be NULL in all commands before we call
execute_commands, so that we can reuse the run_hook function to
execute a new pre-receive hook.

This is a simple refactoring of run_update_hook to allow the function

The refactoring is to support new pre-receive and post-receive
hooks that will be given the entire list of struct commands,
rather than just one struct command. These new hooks will follow

Preallocate memory earlier in fast-import

I'm about to teach fast-import how to reload the marks file created
by a prior session. The general approach that I want to use is to
immediately parse the marks file when the specific argument is found
in argv, thereby allowing the caller to supply multiple marks files,
as the mark space can be sparsely populated.

To make that work out we need to allocate our object tables before
we parse the command line options. Since none of these tables
depend on the command line options, we can easily relocate them.

Cast 64 bit off_t to 32 bit size_tShawn O. Pearce Wed, 7 Mar 2007 01:44:37 +0000 (20:44 -0500)

Cast 64 bit off_t to 32 bit size_t

Some systems have sizeof(off_t) == 8 while sizeof(size_t) == 4.
This implies that we are able to access and work on files whose
maximum length is around 2^63-1 bytes, but we can only malloc or
mmap somewhat less than 2^32-1 bytes of memory.

On such a system an implicit conversion of off_t to size_t can cause
the size_t to wrap, resulting in unexpected and exciting behavior.
Right now we are working around all gcc warnings generated by the
-Wshorten-64-to-32 option by passing the off_t through xsize_t().

In the future we should make xsize_t on such problematic platforms
detect the wrapping and die if such a file is accessed.

General const correctness fixes

We shouldn't attempt to assign constant strings into char*, as the

treating unsigned values as unsigned values, not as signed values.

Most of these are very straightforward. The only exception is the
(unnecessary) xstrdup/free in builtin-branch.c for the detached
head case. Since this is a user-level interactive type program
and that particular code path is executed no more than once, I feel
that the extra xstrdup call is well worth the easy elimination of

git-archimport: allow remapping branch names

This patch adds support to archimport for remapping the branch
names to match those used in git more closely. This is useful
for projects that migrate to git (as opposed to users that want
to use git on Arch-based projects). For example, one can choose
an Arch branch name and call it "master".

The new command-line syntax works even if there is a colon in
a branch name, since only the part after the last colon is taken
to be the git name (git does not allow colons in branch names).

The new feature is implemented so that archives rotated every
year can also be remapped into a single git archive.

gitweb: Don't escape attributes in CGI.pm HTML methods

There is no need to escape HTML tag's attributes in CGI.pm
HTML methods (like CGI::a()), because CGI.pm does attribute
escaping automatically.

$cgi->a({ ... -attribute => atribute_value }, tag_contents)

is translated to

<a ... attribute="attribute_value">tag_contents</a>

The rules for escaping attribute values (which are string contents) are
different. For example you have to take care about escaping embedded '"'
and "'" characters; CGI::a() does that for us automatically.

CGI::a() does not HTML escape tag_contents; we would need to write

<a href="URL">some <b>bold</b> text</a>

for example. So we use esc_html (or esc_path) to escape tag_contents
as needed.

make t8001 work on Mac OS X again

The test was recently broken to expect sed to leave the
incomplete line at the end without newline.

POSIX says that output of the pattern space is to be followed by
a newline, while GNU adds the newline back only when it was
stripped when input. GNU behaviour is arguably more intuitive
and nicer, but we should not depend on it.

Make 'make' quieter while building gitShawn O. Pearce Tue, 6 Mar 2007 06:35:01 +0000 (01:35 -0500)

Make 'make' quieter while building git

I find it difficult to see compiler warnings amongst the massive
spewing produced by GNU make as it works through our productions.
This is especially true if CFLAGS winds up being rather long, due
to a large number of -W options being enabled and due to a number
of -D options being configured/required by my platform.

By defining QUIET_MAKE (e.g. make QUIET_MAKE=YesPlease) during
compilation users will get a less verbose output, such as:

...
CC builtin-grep.c
builtin-grep.c:187: warning: 'external_grep' defined but not used
CC builtin-init-db.c
CC builtin-log.c
CC builtin-ls-files.c
CC builtin-ls-tree.c
...

The verbose (normal make) output is still the default.

cherry-pick: Bug fix 'cherry picked from' message.

Somewhere along the line (in abd6970a) git-revert.sh learned to
omit the private object name from the new commit message *unless*
-x was supplied on the command line by the user.

The way this was implemented is really non-obvious in the original
script. Setting replay=t (the default) means we don't include the
the private object name, while setting reply='' (the -x flag) means
we should include the private object name. These two settings now
relate to the replay=1 and replay=0 cases in the C version, so we
need to negate replay to test it is 0.

I also noticed the C version was adding an extra LF in the -x case,
where the older git-revert.sh was not.

fast-import: Fail if a non-existant commit is used for merge

Johannes Sixt noticed during one of his own imports that fast-import
did not fail if a non-existant commit is referenced by SHA-1 value
as an argument to the 'merge' command. This allowed the user to
unknowingly create commits that would fail in fsck, as the commit
contents would not be completely reachable.

A side effect of this bug was that a frontend process could mark
any SHA-1 object (blob, tree, tag) as a parent of a merge commit.
This should also fail in fsck, as the commit is not a valid commit.

We now use the same rule as the 'from' command. If a commit is
referenced in the 'merge' command by hex formatted SHA-1 then the
SHA-1 must be a commit or a tag that can be peeled back to a commit,
the commit must already exist, and must be readable by the core Git
infrastructure code. This requirement means that the commit must
have existed prior to fast-import starting, or the commit must have
been flushed out by a prior 'checkpoint' command.

fast-import: Avoid infinite loop after reset

Johannes Sixt noticed that a 'reset' command applied to a branch that
is already active in the branch LRU cache can cause fast-import to
relink the same branch into the LRU cache twice. This will cause
the LRU cache to contain a cycle, making unload_one_branch run in an
infinite loop as it tries to select the oldest branch for eviction.

I have trivially fixed the problem by adding an active bit to
each branch object; this bit indicates if the branch is already
in the LRU and allows us to avoid trying to add it a second time.
Converting the pack_id field into a bitfield makes this change take
up no additional memory.

fsck: exit with non-zero status upon errors

git-fsck always exited with status 0, which was a bit sloppy.
This makes it exit with a non-zero status when errors are
found. The error code is an OR'ed result of:

1 if corrupted objects are found.
2 if objects that are ought to be reachable are missing or corrupt.

For example, it would exit with 1 in a repository with an
unreachable corrupt object. If a tree object of the HEAD commit
is corrupt, you would get 3.

- We did not give escape hatch to name a path whose name is

Unset NO_C99_FORMAT on Cygwin.Ramsay Jones Sat, 3 Mar 2007 18:28:39 +0000 (18:28 +0000)

Unset NO_C99_FORMAT on Cygwin.

This should only be set based on the capability of your
compiler/library to support c99 format specifiers. In this
case the version of gcc/newlib and indirectly the version
of Cygwin. It should probably only be set in your config.mak
file.

Tell multi-parent diff about core.symlinks.Johannes Sixt Sat, 3 Mar 2007 19:38:00 +0000 (20:38 +0100)

Tell multi-parent diff about core.symlinks.

When core.symlinks is false, and a merge of symbolic links had conflicts,
the merge result is left as a file in the working directory. A decision
must be made whether the file is treated as a regular file or as a
symbolic link. This patch treats the file as a symbolic link only if
all merge parents were also symbolic links.

Handle core.symlinks=false case in merge-recursive.Johannes Sixt Sat, 3 Mar 2007 19:32:46 +0000 (20:32 +0100)

Handle core.symlinks=false case in merge-recursive.

If the file system does not support symbolic links (core.symlinks=false),
merge-recursive must write the merged symbolic link text into a regular
file.

While we are here, fix a tiny memory leak in the if-branch that writes
real symbolic links.
