tag: do not show non-tag contents with "-n"

"git tag -n" did not check the type of the object it is reading the top n
lines from. At least, avoid showing the beginning of trees and blobs when
dealing with lightweight tags that point at them.

As the payload of a tag and a commit look similar in that they both start
with a header block, which is skipped for the purpose of "-n" output,
followed by human readable text, allow the message of commit objects to be
shown just like the contents of tag objects. This avoids regression for
people who have been using "tag -n" to show the log messages of commits
that are pointed at by lightweight tags.

Test script is from Jeff King.

commit: ignore intent-to-add entries instead of refusing

Originally, "git add -N" was introduced to help users from forgetting to
add new files to the index before they ran "git commit -a". As an attempt
to help them further so that they do not forget to say "-a", "git commit"
to commit the index as-is was taught to error out, reminding the user that
they may have forgotten to add the final contents of the paths before
running the command.

This turned out to be a false "safety" that is useless. If the user made
changes to already tracked paths and paths added with "git add -N", and
then ran "git add" to register the final contents of the paths added with
"git add -N", "git commit" will happily create a commit out of the index,
without including the local changes made to the already tracked paths. It
was not a useful "safety" measure to prevent "forgetful" mistakes from
happening.

It turns out that this behaviour is not just a useless false "safety", but
actively hurts use cases of "git add -N" that were discovered later and
have become popular, namely, to tell Git to be aware of these paths added
by "git add -N", so that commands like "git status" and "git diff" would
include them in their output, even though the user is not interested in
including them in the next commit they are going to make.

Fix this ancient UI mistake, and instead make a commit from the index
ignoring the paths added by "git add -N" without adding real contents.

Based on the work by Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy, and helped by injection of
sanity from Jonathan Nieder and others on the Git mailing list.

add -e: do not show difference in a submodule that is merely dirty

When the HEAD of the submodule matches what is recorded in the index of
the superproject, and it has local changes or untracked files, the patch
offered by "git add -e" for editing shows a diff like this:

diff --git a/submodule b/submodule
<header>
-deadbeef...
+deadbeef...-dirty

Because applying such a patch has no effect to the index, this is a
useless noise. Generate the patch with IGNORE_DIRTY_SUBMODULES flag to
prevent such a change from getting reported.

This patch also loses the "-dirty" suffix from the output when the HEAD of
the submodule is different from what is in the index of the superproject.
As such dirtiness expressed by the suffix does not affect the result of
the patch application at all, there is no information lost if we remove
it. The user could still run "git status" before "git add -e" if s/he
cares about the dirtiness.

completion: work around zsh option propagation bugFelipe Contreras Thu, 2 Feb 2012 19:26:15 +0000 (11:26 -0800)

completion: work around zsh option propagation bug

When listing commands in zsh (git <TAB><TAB>), all of them will show up,
instead of only porcelain ones.

The root cause of this is because zsh versions from 4.3.0 to present
(4.3.15) do not correctly propagate the SH_WORD_SPLIT option into the
subshell in ${foo:=$(bar)} expressions. Because of this bug, the list of
all commands was treated as a single word in __git_list_porcelain_commands
and did not match any of the patterns that would usually cause plumbing to
be excluded.

With problematic versions of zsh, after running

emulate sh
fn () {
var='one two'
for v in $var; do echo $v; done
}
x=$(fn)
: ${y=$(fn)}

printing "$x" results in two lines as expected, but printing "$y" results
in a single line because $var is expanded as a single word when evaluating
fn to compute y.

So avoid the construct, and use an explicit 'test -n "$foo" || foo=$(bar)'
instead.

fsck: give accurate error message on empty loose object files

Since 3ba7a065527a (A loose object is not corrupt if it
cannot be read due to EMFILE), "git fsck" on a repository with an empty
loose object file complains with the error message

fatal: failed to read object <sha1>: Invalid argument

This comes from a failure of mmap on this empty file, which sets errno to
EINVAL. Instead of calling xmmap on empty file, we display a clean error
message ourselves, and return a NULL pointer. The new message is

error: object file .git/objects/09/<rest-of-sha1> is empty
fatal: loose object <sha1> (stored in .git/objects/09/<rest-of-sha1>) is corrupt

The second line was already there before the regression in 3ba7a065527a,
and the first is an additional message, that should help diagnosing the
problem for the user.

tag: die when listing missing or corrupt objects

We don't usually bother looking at tagged objects at all
when listing. However, if "-n" is specified, we open the
objects to read the annotations of the tags. If we fail to
read an object, or if the object has zero length, we simply
silently return.

The first case is an indication of a broken or corrupt repo,
and we should notify the user of the error.

The second case is OK to silently ignore; however, the
existing code leaked the buffer returned by read_sha1_file.

tag: fix output of "tag -n" when errors occur

When "git tag" is instructed to print lines from annotated
tags via "-n", it first prints the tag name, then attempts
to parse and print the lines of the tag object, and then
finally adds a trailing newline.

If an error occurs, we return early from the function and
never print the newline, screwing up the output for the next
tag. Let's factor the line-printing into its own function so
we can manage the early returns better, and make sure that
we always terminate the line.

Fix build problems related to profile-directed optimizationTheodore Ts'o Mon, 6 Feb 2012 06:00:17 +0000 (01:00 -0500)

Fix build problems related to profile-directed optimization

There was a number of problems I ran into when trying the
profile-directed optimizations added by Andi Kleen in git commit
7ddc2710b9. (This was using gcc 4.4 found on many enterprise
distros.)

1) The -fprofile-generate and -fprofile-use commands are incompatible
with ccache; the code ends up looking in the wrong place for the gcda
files based on the ccache object names.

2) If the makefile notices that CFLAGS are different, it will rebuild
all of the binaries. Hence the recipe originally specified by the
INSTALL file ("make profile-all" followed by "make install") doesn't
work. It will appear to work, but the binaries will end up getting
built with no optimization.

This patch fixes this by using an explicit set of options passed via
the PROFILE variable then using this to directly manipulate CFLAGS and
EXTLIBS.

The developer can run "make PROFILE=BUILD all ; sudo make
PROFILE=BUILD install" automatically run a two-pass build with the
test suite run in between as the sample workload for the purpose of
recording profiling information to do the profile-directed
optimization.

Alternatively, the profiling version of binaries can be built using:

make PROFILE=GEN PROFILE_DIR=/var/cache/profile all
make PROFILE=GEN install

and then after git has been used for a while, the optimized version of
the binary can be built as follows:

make PROFILE=USE PROFILE_DIR=/var/cache/profile all
make PROFILE=USE install

imap-send: remove dead code

The imap-send code was adapted from another project, and
still contains many unused bits of code. One of these bits
contains a type "struct string_list" which bears no
resemblence to the "struct string_list" we use elsewhere in
git. This causes the compiler to complain if git's
string_list ever becomes part of cache.h.

Let's just drop the dead code.

branch --edit-description: protect against mistyped... Junio C Hamano Mon, 6 Feb 2012 01:13:36 +0000 (17:13 -0800)

branch --edit-description: protect against mistyped branch name

It is very easy to mistype the branch name when editing its description,
e.g.

$ git checkout -b my-topic master
: work work work
: now we are at a good point to switch working something else
$ git checkout master
: ah, let's write it down before we forget what we were doing
$ git branch --edit-description my-tpoic

The command does not notice that branch 'my-tpoic' does not exist. It is
not lost (it becomes description of an unborn my-tpoic branch), but is not
very useful. So detect such a case and error out to reduce the grief
factor from this common mistake.

This incidentally also errors out --edit-description when the HEAD points
at an unborn branch (immediately after "init", or "checkout --orphan"),
because at that point, you do not even have any commit that is part of
your history and there is no point in describing how this particular
branch is different from the branch it forked off of, which is the useful
bit of information the branch description is designed to capture.

We may want to special case the unborn case later, but that is outside the
scope of this patch to prevent more common mistakes before 1.7.9 series
gains too much widespread use.

merge: do not create a signed tag merge under --ff... Junio C Hamano Mon, 6 Feb 2012 00:22:12 +0000 (16:22 -0800)

merge: do not create a signed tag merge under --ff-only option

Starting at release v1.7.9, if you ask to merge a signed tag, "git merge"
always creates a merge commit, even when the tag points at a commit that
happens to be a descendant of your current commit.

Unfortunately, this interacts rather badly for people who use --ff-only to
make sure that their branch is free of local developments. It used to be
possible to say:

$ git checkout -b frotz v1.7.9~30
$ git merge --ff-only v1.7.9

and expect that the resulting tip of frotz branch matches v1.7.9^0 (aka
the commit tagged as v1.7.9), but this fails with the updated Git with:

fatal: Not possible to fast-forward, aborting.

because a merge that merges v1.7.9 tag to v1.7.9~30 cannot be created by
fast forwarding.

We could teach users that now they have to do

$ git merge --ff-only v1.7.9^0

but it is far more pleasant for users if we DWIMmed this ourselves.

When an integrator pulls in a topic from a lieutenant via a signed tag,
even when the work done by the lieutenant happens to fast-forward, the
integrator wants to have a merge record, so the integrator will not be
asking for --ff-only when running "git pull" in such a case. Therefore,
this change should not regress the support for the use case v1.7.9 wanted
to add.

parse_date(): '@' prefix forces git-timestamp

The only place that the issue this series addresses was observed
where we read "cat-file commit" output and put it in GIT_AUTHOR_DATE
in order to replay a commit with an ancient timestamp.

With the previous patch alone, "git commit --date='20100917 +0900'"
can be misinterpreted to mean an ancient timestamp, not September in
year 2010. Guard this codepath by requring an extra '@' in front of
the raw git timestamp on the parsing side. This of course needs to
be compensated by updating get_author_ident_from_commit and the code
for "git commit --amend" to prepend '@' to the string read from the
existing commit in the GIT_AUTHOR_DATE environment variable.

parse_date(): allow ancient git-timestampJunio C Hamano Thu, 2 Feb 2012 21:41:42 +0000 (13:41 -0800)

parse_date(): allow ancient git-timestamp

The date-time parser parses out a human-readble datestring piece by
piece, so that it could even parse a string in a rather strange
notation like 'noon november 11, 2005', but restricts itself from
parsing strings in "<seconds since epoch> <timezone>" format only
for reasonably new timestamps (like 1974 or newer) with 10 or more
digits. This is to prevent a string like "20100917" from getting
interpreted as seconds since epoch (we want to treat it as September
17, 2010 instead) while doing so.

The same codepath is used to read back the timestamp that we have
already recorded in the headers of commit and tag objects; because
of this, such a commit with timestamp "0 +0000" cannot be rebased or
amended very easily.

Teach parse_date() codepath to special case a string of the form
"<digits> +<4-digits>" to work this issue around, but require that
there is no other cruft around the string when parsing a timestamp
of this format for safety.

Note that this has a slight backward incompatibility implications.

If somebody writes "git commit --date='20100917 +0900'" and wants it
to mean a timestamp in September 2010 in Japan, this change will
break such a use case.

t0300 creates some helper shell scripts, and marks them with

can fail on broken shells (specifically, Solaris /bin/sh

tests: add write_script helper functionJunio C Hamano Sat, 4 Feb 2012 06:29:01 +0000 (01:29 -0500)

tests: add write_script helper function

Many of the scripts in the test suite write small helper
shell scripts to disk. It's best if these shell scripts
start with "#!$SHELL_PATH" rather than "#!/bin/sh", because
/bin/sh on some platforms is too buggy to be used.

However, it can be cumbersome to expand $SHELL_PATH, because
the usual recipe for writing a script is:

cat >foo.sh <<-\EOF
#!/bin/sh
echo my arguments are "$@"
EOF

To expand $SHELL_PATH, you have to either interpolate the
here-doc (which would require quoting "\$@"), or split the
creation into two commands (interpolating the $SHELL_PATH
line, but not the rest of the script). Let's provide a
helper function that makes that less syntactically painful.

While we're at it, this helper can also take care of the
"chmod +x" that typically comes after the creation of such a
script, saving the caller a line.

vcs-svn: suppress a -Wtype-limits warningJonathan Nieder Thu, 2 Feb 2012 11:06:01 +0000 (05:06 -0600)

vcs-svn: suppress a -Wtype-limits warning

On 32-bit architectures with 64-bit file offsets, gcc 4.3 and earlier
produce the following warning:

CC vcs-svn/sliding_window.o
vcs-svn/sliding_window.c: In function `check_overflow':
vcs-svn/sliding_window.c:36: warning: comparison is always false \
due to limited range of data type

The warning appears even when gcc is run without any warning flags
(this is gcc bug 12963). In later versions the same warning can be
reproduced with -Wtype-limits, which is implied by -Wextra.

On 64-bit architectures it really is possible for a size_t not to be
representable as an off_t so the check this is warning about is not
actually redundant. But even false positives are distracting. Avoid
the warning by making the "len" argument to check_overflow a
uintmax_t; no functional change intended.

vcs-svn: allow import of > 4GiB files

There is no reason in principle that an svn-format dump would not be
able to represent a file whose length does not fit in a 32-bit
integer. Use off_t consistently to represent file lengths (in place
of using uint32_t in some contexts) so we can handle that.

Most svn-fe code is already ready to do that without this patch and
passes values of type off_t around. The type mismatch from stragglers
was noticed with gcc -Wtype-limits.

While at it, tighten the parsing of the Text-content-length field to
make sure it is a number and does not overflow, and tighten other
overflow checks as that value is passed around and manipulated.

free_pack_by_name() happens to free that particular pack.

Current code base does not access packs after calling

gitweb: add project_filter to limit project list to a subdirectory

This commit changes the project listing views (project_list,
project_index and opml) to limit the output to only projects in a
subdirectory if the new optional parameter ?pf=directory name is
used.

The implementation of the filter reuses the implementation used for
the 'forks' action (i.e. listing all projects within that directory
from the projects list file (GITWEB_LIST) or only projects in the
given subdirectory of the project root directory without a projects
list file).

Reusing $project instead of adding a new parameter would have been
nicer from a UI point-of-view (including PATH_INFO support) but
would complicate the $project validating code that is currently
being used to ensure nothing is exported that should not be viewable.

gitweb: prepare git_get_projects_list for use outside 'forks'.

Use of the filter option of git_get_projects_list is currently limited
to forks. It currently assumes the project belonging to the filter
directory was already validated to be visible in the project list.

To make it more generic add an optional argument to denote visibility
verification is still needed.

If there is a projects list file (GITWEB_LIST) only projects from
this list are returned anyway, so no more checks needed.

If there is no projects list file and the caller requests strict
checking (GITWEB_STRICT_EXPORT), do not jump directly to the
given directory but instead do a normal search and filter the
results instead.

The only effect of GITWEB_STRICT_EXPORT without GITWEB_LIST is to make
sure no project can be viewed without also be found starting from
project root. git_get_projects_list without this patch does not enforce
this but all callers only call it with a filter already checked this
way. With this parameter a caller can request this check if the filter
cannot be checked this way.

request-pull: explicitly ask tags/$name to be pulled

When asking for a tag to be pulled, disambiguate by leaving tags/ prefix
in front of the name of the tag. E.g.

... in the git repository at:

git://example.com/git/git.git/ tags/v1.2.3

for you to fetch changes up to 123456...

This way, older versions of "git pull" can be used to respond to such a
request more easily, as "git pull $URL v1.2.3" did not DWIM to fetch
v1.2.3 tag in older versions. Also this makes it clearer for humans that
the pull request is made for a tag and he should anticipate a signed one.

merge: add instructions to the commit message when editing

Before f824628 (merge: use editor by default in interactive sessions,
2012-01-10), git-merge only started an editor if the user explicitly
asked for it with --edit. Thus it seemed unlikely that the user would
need extra guidance.

After f824628 the _normal_ thing is to start an editor. Give at least
an indication of why we are doing it.

The sentence about justification is one of the few things about
standard git that are not agnostic to the workflow that the user
chose. However, f824628 was proposed by Linus specifically to
discourage users from merging unrelated upstream progress into topic
branches. So we may as well take another step in the same direction.
