color: introduce support for colorizing stderrJohannes Schindelin Sat, 21 Apr 2018 10:09:57 +0000 (12:09 +0200)

color: introduce support for colorizing stderr

So far, we only ever asked whether stdout wants to be colorful. In the
upcoming patches, we will want to make push errors more prominent, which
are printed to stderr, though.

So let's refactor the want_color() function into a want_color_fd()
function (which expects to be called with fd == 1 or fd == 2 for stdout
and stderr, respectively), and then define the macro `want_color()` to
use the want_color_fd() function.

And then also add a macro `want_color_stderr()`, for convenience and
for documentation.

builtin/config: introduce `color` type specifierTaylor Blau Tue, 10 Apr 2018 00:18:31 +0000 (17:18 -0700)

builtin/config: introduce `color` type specifier

As of this commit, the canonical way to retreive an ANSI-compatible
color escape sequence from a configuration file is with the
`--get-color` action.

This is to allow Git to "fall back" on a default value for the color
should the given section not exist in the specified configuration(s).

With the addition of `--default`, this is no longer needed since:

$ git config --default red --type=color core.section

will be have exactly as:

$ git config --get-color core.section red

For consistency, let's introduce `--type=color` and encourage its use
with `--default` together over `--get-color` alone.

In preparation for adding `--type=color` to the `git-config(1)` builtin,
let's introduce a color parsing utility, `git_config_color` in a similar

builtin/config: introduce `--default`Taylor Blau Tue, 10 Apr 2018 00:18:26 +0000 (17:18 -0700)

builtin/config: introduce `--default`

For some use cases, callers of the `git-config(1)` builtin would like to
fallback to default values when the variable asked for does not exist.
In addition, users would like to use existing type specifiers to ensure
that values are parsed correctly when they do exist in the
configuration.

For example, to fetch a value without a type specifier and fallback to
`$fallback`, the following is required:

$ git config core.foo || echo "$fallback"

This is fine for most values, but can be tricky for difficult-to-express
`$fallback`'s, like ANSI color codes.

This motivates `--get-color`, which is a one-off exception to the normal
type specifier rules wherein a user specifies both the configuration
variable and an optional fallback. Both are formatted according to their
type specifier, which eases the burden on the user to ensure that values
are correctly formatted.

This commit (and those following it in this series) aim to eventually
replace `--get-color` with a consistent alternative. By introducing
`--default`, we allow the `--get-color` action to be promoted to a
`--type=color` type specifier, retaining the "fallback" behavior via the
`--default` flag introduced in this commit.

For example, we aim to replace:

$ git config --get-color variable [default] [...]

with:

$ git config --default default --type=color variable [...]

Values filled by `--default` behave exactly as if they were present in
the affected configuration file; they will be parsed by type specifiers
without the knowledge that they are not themselves present in the
configuration.

Specifically, this means that the following will work:

$ git config --int --default 1M does.not.exist
1048576

In subsequent commits, we will offer `--type=color`, which (in
conjunction with `--default`) will be sufficient to replace
`--get-color`.

parseopt: handle malformed --expire arguments more... Junio C Hamano Sat, 21 Apr 2018 03:13:13 +0000 (12:13 +0900)

parseopt: handle malformed --expire arguments more nicely

A few commands that parse --expire=<time> command line option behave
sillily when given nonsense input. For example

$ git prune --no-expire
Segmentation falut
$ git prune --expire=npw; echo $?
129

Both come from parse_opt_expiry_date_cb().

The former is because the function is not prepared to see arg==NULL
(for "--no-expire", it is a norm; "--expire" at the end of the
command line could be made to pass NULL, if it is told that the
argument is optional, but we don't so we do not have to worry about
that case).

The latter is because it does not check the value returned from the
underlying parse_expiry_date().

This seems to be a recent regression introduced while we attempted
to avoid spewing the entire usage message when given a correct
option but with an invalid value at 3bb0923f ("parse-options: do not
show usage upon invalid option value", 2018-03-22). Before that, we
didn't fail silently but showed a full usage help (which arguably is
not all that better).

Also catch this error early when "git gc --prune=<expiration>" is
misspelled by doing a dummy parsing before the main body of "gc"
that is time consuming even begins. Otherwise, we'd spend time to
pack objects and then later have "git prune" first notice the error.
Aborting "gc" in the middle that way is not harmful but is ugly and
can be avoided.

fast-export: fix regression skipping some merge-commits

7199203937 (object_array: add and use `object_array_pop()`, 2017-09-23)
noted that the pattern `object = array.objects[--array.nr].item` could
be abstracted as `object = object_array_pop(&array)`.

Unfortunately, one of the conversions was horribly wrong. Between
grabbing the last object (i.e., peeking at it) and decreasing the object
count, the original code would sometimes return early. The updated code
on the other hand, will always pop the last element, then maybe do the
early return without doing anything with the object.

The end result is that merge commits where all the parents have still
not been exported will simply be dropped, meaning that they will be
completely missing from the exported data.

Re-add a commit when it is not yet time to handle it. An alternative
that was considered was to peek-then-pop. That carries some risk with it
since the peeking and popping need to act on the same object, in a
concerted fashion.

Add a test that would have caught this.

builtin/config.c: support `--type=<type>` as preferred alias for `--<type>`

`git config` has long allowed the ability for callers to provide a 'type
specifier', which instructs `git config` to (1) ensure that incoming
values can be interpreted as that type, and (2) that outgoing values are
canonicalized under that type.

In another series, we propose to extend this functionality with
`--type=color` and `--default` to replace `--get-color`.

However, we traditionally use `--color` to mean "colorize this output",
instead of "this value should be treated as a color".

Currently, `git config` does not support this kind of colorization, but
we should be careful to avoid squatting on this option too soon, so that
`git config` can support `--color` (in the traditional sense) in the
future, if that is desired.

In this patch, we support `--type=<int|bool|bool-or-int|...>` in
addition to `--int`, `--bool`, and etc. This allows the aforementioned
upcoming patch to support querying a color value with a default via
`--type=color --default=...`, without squandering `--color`.

We retain the historic behavior of complaining when multiple,
legacy-style `--<type>` flags are given, as well as extend this to
conflicting new-style `--type=<type>` flags. `--int --type=int` (and its
commutative pair) does not complain, but `--bool --type=int` (and its
commutative pair) does.

Now that the sequencer commits without forking when the commit message

date. If a commit is reworded it's committer date will be a later time
as it is created by running an separate instance of 'git commit'. If
the reworded commit is follow by further picks, those later commits
will have an earlier committer date than the reworded one. This is
caused by git caching the default date used when GIT_COMMITTER_DATE is

This ugly 'null' adds no value to the user using this command. More
importantly printf() on some platform can't handle NULL as a string
and will crash instead of printing '(null)'.

Check for this and skip printing this part (the alternative is
printing '(n/a)' or something but I think that is just noise).

Further down in git-log.txt we have a ``--'', which renders good. In
git-shortlog.txt, we use "\-- " (including the quotes and the space),
which happens to look fairly good. I failed to find any other similar
instances. So all in all, we quote a double-dash in three different
places and do it differently each time, with various degrees of success.

Switch all of these to `--`. This sets the double-dash in monospace and
matches what we usually do with example command line usages and options.
Note that we drop the trailing space as well, since `-- ` does not
render well. These should still be clear enough since just a few lines
above each instance, the space is clearly visible in a longer context.

completion: reduce overhead of clearing cached --options

To get the names of all '$__git_builtin_*' variables caching --options
of builtin commands in order to unset them, 8b0eaa41f2 (completion:
clear cached --options when sourcing the completion script,
2018-03-22) runs a 'set |sed s///' pipeline. This works both in Bash
and in ZSH, but has a higher than necessary overhead with the extra
processes.

In Bash we can do better: run the 'compgen -v __gitcomp_builtin_'
builtin command, which lists the same variables, but without a
pipeline and 'sed' it can do so with lower overhead.
ZSH will still continue to run that pipeline.

This change also happens to work around an issue in the default Bash
version shipped in macOS (3.2.57), reported by users of the Powerline
shell prompt, which was triggered by the same commit 8b0eaa41f2 as
well. Powerline uses several Unicode Private Use Area code points to
represent some of its pretty text UI elements (arrows and what not),
and these are stored in the $PS1 variable. Apparently the 'set'
builtin of said Bash version on macOS has issues with these code
points, and produces garbled output where Powerline's special symbols
should be in the $PS1 variable. This, in turn, triggers the following
error message in the downstream 'sed' process:

sed: RE error: illegal byte sequence

Other Bash versions, notably 4.4.19 on macOS via homebrew (i.e. a
newer version on the same platform) and 3.2.25 on CentOS (i.e. a
slightly earlier version, though on a different platform) are not
affected. ZSH in macOS (the versions shipped by default or installed
via homebrew) or on other platforms isn't affected either.

With this patch neither the 'set' builtin is invoked to print garbage,
nor 'sed' to choke on it.

git{,-blame}.el: remove old bitrotting Emacs code

The git-blame.el mode has been superseded by Emacs's own
vc-annotate (invoked by C-x v g). Users of the git.el mode are now
much better off using either Magit or the Git backend for Emacs's own
VC mode.

These modes were added over 10 years ago when Emacs's own Git support
was much less mature, and there weren't other mature modes in the wild
or shipped with Emacs itself.

These days these modes have few if any users, and users of git aren't
well served by us shipping these (some OS's install them alongside git
by default, which is confusing and leads users astray).

So let's remove these per Alexandre Julliard's message to the
ML[1]. If someone still wants these for some reason they're better
served by hosting these elsewhere (e.g. on ELPA), instead of us
distributing them with git.

However, since downstream packagers such as Debian are packaging this
as git-el it's less disruptive to still carry these files as Elisp
code that'll error out with a message suggesting alternatives, rather
than drop the files entirely[2].

Then rather than receive a cryptic load error when they upgrade
existing users will get an error directing them to the README file, or
to just stop requiring these modes. I think it makes sense to link to
GitHub's hosting of contrib/emacs/README (which'll be updated by the
time users see this) so they don't have to hunt down the packaged
README on their local system.

gpg-interface: modernize function declarations

Let's drop "extern" from our declarations, which brings us
in line with our modern style guidelines. While we're
here, let's wrap some of the overly long lines, and move
docstrings for public functions to their declarations, since
they document the interface.

gpg-interface: handle bool user.signingkeyJeff King Fri, 13 Apr 2018 21:18:30 +0000 (15:18 -0600)

gpg-interface: handle bool user.signingkey

The config handler for user.signingkey does not check for a
boolean value, and thus:

git -c user.signingkey tag

will segfault. We could fix this and even shorten the code
by using git_config_string(). But our set_signing_key()
helper is used by other code outside of gpg-interface.c, so
we must keep it (and we may as well use it, because unlike
git_config_string() it does not leak when we overwrite an
old value).

Ironically, the handler for gpg.program just below _could_
use git_config_string() but doesn't. But since we're going
to touch that in a future patch, we'll leave it alone for
now. We will add some whitespace and returns in preparation
for adding more config keys, though.

Makefile: add a DEVOPTS to get all of -Wextra

Change DEVOPTS to understand a "extra-all" option. When the DEVELOPER
flag is enabled we turn on -Wextra, but manually switch some of the
warnings it turns on off.

This is because we have many existing occurrences of them in the code
base. This mode will stop the suppression, let the developer see and
decide whether to fix them.

This change is a slight alteration of Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy

Makefile: add a DEVOPTS to suppress -Werror under DEVELOPER

Add a DEVOPTS variable that'll be used to tweak the behavior of
DEVELOPER.

I've long wanted to use DEVELOPER=1 in my production builds, but on
some old systems I still get warnings, and thus the build would
fail. However if the build/tests fail for some other reason, it would
still be useful to scroll up and see what the relevant code is warning
about.

This change allows for that. Now setting DEVELOPER will set -Werror as
before, but if DEVOPTS=no-error is provided is set you'll get the same
warnings, but without -Werror.

Makefile: detect compiler and enable more warnings in DEVELOPER=1

The set of extra warnings we enable when DEVELOPER has to be
conservative because we can't assume any compiler version the
developer may use. Detect the compiler version so we know when it's
safe to enable -Wextra and maybe more.

These warning settings are mostly from my custom config.mak a long
time ago when I tried to enable as many warnings as possible that can
still build without showing warnings. Some of those warnings are
probably worth fixing instead of just suppressing in future.

There is a series running in parallel with this one that adds code

switch (...) {

There is nothing wrong with this. There is no actual falling
through. But since gcc is not that smart and gcc 7.x introduces
-Wimplicit-fallthrough, it raises a false alarm in this case.

This class of warnings may be useful elsewhere, so instead of
suppressing the whole class, let's try to fix just this code. gcc is
smart enough to realize that no execution can continue after a
NORETURN function call and no longer raises the warning.

convert: add round trip check based on 'core.checkRoundtripEncoding'

UTF supports lossless conversion round tripping and conversions between
UTF and other encodings are mostly round trip safe as Unicode aims to be
a superset of all other character encodings. However, certain encodings
(e.g. SHIFT-JIS) are known to have round trip issues [1].

Add 'core.checkRoundtripEncoding', which contains a comma separated
list of encodings, to define for what encodings Git should check the
conversion round trip if they are used in the 'working-tree-encoding'
attribute.

Set SHIFT-JIS as default value for 'core.checkRoundtripEncoding'.

Git recognizes files encoded with ASCII or one of its supersets (e.g.
UTF-8 or ISO-8859-1) as text files. All other encodings are usually
interpreted as binary and consequently built-in Git text processing
tools (e.g. 'git diff') as well as most Git web front ends do not
visualize the content.

Add an attribute to tell Git what encoding the user has defined for a
given file. If the content is added to the index, then Git reencodes
the content to a canonical UTF-8 representation. On checkout Git will
reverse this operation.

The Unicode standard instructs to assume big-endian if there in no BOM

in HTML5 recommends to assume little-endian to "deal with deployed

for content in Git.

replace-object: check_replace_refs is safe in multi repo environment

In e1111cef23 (inline lookup_replace_object() calls, 2011-05-15) a shortcut
for checking the object replacement was added by setting check_replace_refs
to 0 once the replacements were evaluated to not exist. This works fine in
with the assumption of only one repository in existence.

The assumption won't hold true any more when we work on multiple instances
of a repository structs (e.g. one struct per submodule), as the first
repository to be inspected may have no replacements and would set the
global variable. Other repositories would then completely omit their
evaluation of replacements.

This reverts back the meaning of the flag `check_replace_refs` of
"Do we need to check with the lookup table?" to "Do we need to read
the replacement definition?", adding the bypassing logic to
lookup_replace_object after the replacement definition was read.
As with the original patch, delay the renaming of the global variable

replace-object: eliminate replace objects prepared... Stefan Beller Thu, 12 Apr 2018 00:21:07 +0000 (17:21 -0700)

replace-object: eliminate replace objects prepared flag

Make the oidmap a pointer.

That way we eliminate the need for the global boolean
variable 'replace_object_prepared' as we can put this information
into the pointer being NULL or not.

Another advantage of this is that we would more quickly catch
code that tries to access replace-map without initializing it.

This also allows the '#include "oidmap.h"' introduced in a previous
patch to be replaced by the forward declaration of 'struct oidmap;'.
Keeping the type opaque discourages circumventing accessor functions;
not dragging in other headers avoids some compile time overhead.

One disadvantage of this is change is performance as we need to
pay the overhead for a malloc. The alternative of moving the
global variable into the object store is less modular code.

exec_cmd: provide a new-style RUNTIME_PREFIX helper for Windows

The RUNTIME_PREFIX feature comes from Git for Windows, but it was
enhanced to allow support for other platforms. While changing the
original idea, the concept was also improved by not forcing argv[0] to
be adjusted.

Let's allow the same for Windows by implementing a helper just as for
the other platforms.

exec_cmd: RUNTIME_PREFIX on some POSIX systems

Enable Git to resolve its own binary location using a variety of
OS-specific and generic methods, including:

- procfs via "/proc/self/exe" (Linux)
- _NSGetExecutablePath (Darwin)
- KERN_PROC_PATHNAME sysctl on BSDs.
- argv0, if absolute (all, including Windows).

This is used to enable RUNTIME_PREFIX support for non-Windows systems,
notably Linux and Darwin. When configured with RUNTIME_PREFIX, Git will
do a best-effort resolution of its executable path and automatically use
this as its "exec_path" for relative helper and data lookups, unless
explicitly overridden.

Small incidental formatting cleanup of "exec_cmd.c".

Makefile: add Perl runtime prefix supportDan Jacques Tue, 10 Apr 2018 15:05:43 +0000 (11:05 -0400)

Makefile: add Perl runtime prefix support

Broaden the RUNTIME_PREFIX flag to configure Git's Perl scripts to
locate the Git installation's Perl support libraries by resolving
against the script's path, rather than hard-coding that path at
build-time. Hard-coding at build time worked on previous
RUNTIME_PREFIX configurations (i.e., Windows) because the Perl
scripts were run within a virtual filesystem whose paths were
consistent regardless of the location of the actual installation.
This will no longer be the case for non-Windows RUNTIME_PREFIX users.

When enabled, RUNTIME_PREFIX now requires Perl's system paths to be
expressed relative to a common installation directory in the Makefile,
and uses that relationship to locate support files based on the known
starting point of the script being executed, much like RUNTIME_PREFIX
does for the Git binary.

This change enables Git's Perl scripts to work when their Git installation
is relocated or moved to another system, even when they are not in a
virtual filesystem environment.

Makefile: generate Perl header from template fileDan Jacques Tue, 10 Apr 2018 15:05:42 +0000 (11:05 -0400)

Makefile: generate Perl header from template file

Currently, the generated Perl script headers are emitted by commands in
the Makefile. This mechanism restricts options to introduce alternative
header content, needed by Perl runtime prefix support, and obscures the
origin of the Perl script header.

Change the Makefile to generate a header by processing a template file and
move the header content into the "perl/" subdirectory. The generated
header content will now be stored in the "GIT-PERL-HEADER" file. This
allows the content of the Perl header to be controlled by changing the path
of the template in the Makefile.

fsmonitor: force index write after full scan

fsmonitor currently only flags the index as dirty if the extension is being
added or removed. This is a performance optimization that recognizes you can
stat() a lot of files in less time than it takes to write out an updated index.

This patch makes a small enhancement and flags the index dirty if we end up
having to stat() all files and scan the entire working directory. The assumption
being that must be expensive or you would not have turned on the feature.

commit: integrate commit graph with commit parsing

Teach Git to inspect a commit graph file to supply the contents of a
struct commit when calling parse_commit_gently(). This implementation
satisfies all post-conditions on the struct commit, including loading
parents, the root tree, and the commit date.

If core.commitGraph is false, then do not check graph files.

In test script t5318-commit-graph.sh, add output-matching conditions on
read-only graph operations.

By loading commits from the graph instead of parsing commit buffers, we
save a lot of time on long commit walks. Here are some performance
results for a copy of the Linux repository where 'master' has 678,653
reachable commits and is behind 'origin/master' by 59,929 commits.
