2014-10-01lockfile.h: extract new header file for the functions in lockfile.cMichael Haggerty
Move the interface declaration for the functions in lockfile.c from cache.h to a new file, lockfile.h. Add #includes where necessary (and remove some redundant includes of cache.h by files that already include builtin.h).

2014-10-01lockfile: change lock_file::filename into a strbufMichael Haggerty
For now, we still make sure to allocate at least PATH_MAX characters for the strbuf because resolve_symlink() doesn't know how to expand the space for its return value. (That will be fixed in a moment.) Another alternative would be to just use a strbuf as scratch space in lock_file() but then store a pointer to the naked string in struct lock_file. But lock_file objects are often reused. By reusing the same strbuf, we can avoid having to reallocate the string most times when a lock_file object is reused.

2014-08-18make config --add behave correctly for empty and NULL valuesTanay Abhra
Currently if we have a config file like, [foo] baz bar = and we try something like, "git config --add foo.baz roll", Git will segfault. Moreover, for "git config --add foo.bar roll", it will overwrite the original value instead of appending after the existing empty value. The problem lies with the regexp used for simulating --add in `git_config_set_multivar_in_file()`, "^$", which in ideal case should not match with any string but is true for empty strings. Instead use a regexp like "a^" which can not be true for any string, empty or not. For removing the segfault add a check for NULL values in `matches()` in config.c.

2014-08-07rewrite git_config() to use the config-set APITanay Abhra
Of all the functions in `git_config*()` family, `git_config()` has the most invocations in the whole code base. Each `git_config()` invocation causes config file rereads which can be avoided using the config-set API. Use the config-set API to rewrite `git_config()` to use the config caching layer to avoid config file rereads on each invocation during a git process lifetime. First invocation constructs the cache, and after that for each successive invocation, `git_config()` feeds values from the config cache instead of rereading the configuration files.

2014-08-07config: add `git_die_config()` to the config-set APITanay Abhra
Add `git_die_config` that dies printing the line number and the file name of the highest priority value for the configuration variable `key`. A custom error message is also printed before dying, specified by the caller, which can be skipped if `err` argument is set to NULL. It has usage in non-callback based config value retrieval where we can raise an error and die if there is a semantic error. For example, if (!git_config_get_value(key, &value)){ if (!strcmp(value, "foo")) git_config_die(key, "value: `%s` is illegal", value); else /* do work */ } Signed-off-by: Tanay Abhra <tanayabh@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Matthieu Moy <Matthieu.Moy@imag.fr> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2014-08-07change `git_config()` return value to voidTanay Abhra
Currently `git_config()` returns an integer signifying an error code. During rewrites of the function most of the code was shifted to `git_config_with_options()`. `git_config_with_options()` normally returns positive values if its `config_source` parameter is set as NULL, as most errors are fatal, and non-fatal potential errors are guarded by "if" statements that are entered only when no error is possible. Still a negative value can be returned in case of race condition between `access_or_die()` & `git_config_from_file()`. Also, all callers of `git_config()` ignore the return value except for one case in branch.c. Change `git_config()` return value to void and make it die if it receives a negative value from `git_config_with_options()`.

2014-08-05config: teach "git -c" to recognize an empty stringJunio C Hamano
In a config file, you can do: [foo] bar to turn the "foo.bar" boolean flag on, and you can do: [foo] bar= to set "foo.bar" to the empty string. However, git's "-c" parameter treats both: git -c foo.bar and git -c foo.bar= as the boolean flag, and there is no way to set a variable to the empty string. This patch enables the latter form to do that. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2014-07-29add `config_set` API for caching config-like filesTanay Abhra
Currently `git_config()` uses a callback mechanism and file rereads for config values. Due to this approach, it is not uncommon for the config files to be parsed several times during the run of a git program, with different callbacks picking out different variables useful to themselves. Add a `config_set`, that can be used to construct an in-memory cache for config-like files that the caller specifies (i.e., files like `.gitmodules`, `~/.gitconfig` etc.). Add two external functions `git_configset_get_value` and `git_configset_get_value_multi` for querying from the config sets. `git_configset_get_value` follows `last one wins` semantic (i.e. if there are multiple matches for the queried key in the files of the configset the value returned will be the last entry in `value_list`). `git_configset_get_value_multi` returns a list of values sorted in order of increasing priority (i.e. last match will be at the end of the list). Add type specific query functions like `git_configset_get_bool` and similar. Add a default `config_set`, `the_config_set` to cache all key-value pairs read from usual config files (repo specific .git/config, user wide ~/.gitconfig, XDG config and the global /etc/gitconfig). `the_config_set` is populated using `git_config()`. Add two external functions `git_config_get_value` and `git_config_get_value_multi` for querying in a non-callback manner from `the_config_set`. Also, add type specific query functions that are implemented as a thin wrapper around the `config_set` API.

2014-07-24fix memory leak parsing core.commentcharJeff King
When we see the core.commentchar config option, we extract the string with git_config_string, which does two things: 1. It complains via config_error_nonbool if there is no string value. 2. It makes a copy of the string. Since we immediately parse the string into its single-character value, we only care about (1). And in fact (2) is a detriment, as it means we leak the copy. Instead, let's just check the pointer value ourselves, and parse directly from the const string we already have.

2014-06-20refactor skip_prefix to return a booleanJeff King
The skip_prefix() function returns a pointer to the content past the prefix, or NULL if the prefix was not found. While this is nice and simple, in practice it makes it hard to use for two reasons: 1. When you want to conditionally skip or keep the string as-is, you have to introduce a temporary variable. For example: tmp = skip_prefix(buf, "foo"); if (tmp) buf = tmp; 2. It is verbose to check the outcome in a conditional, as you need extra parentheses to silence compiler warnings. For example: if ((cp = skip_prefix(buf, "foo")) /* do something with cp */ Both of these make it harder to use for long if-chains, and we tend to use starts_with() instead. However, the first line of "do something" is often to then skip forward in buf past the prefix, either using a magic constant or with an extra strlen(3) (which is generally computed at compile time, but means we are repeating ourselves). This patch refactors skip_prefix() to return a simple boolean, and to provide the pointer value as an out-parameter. If the prefix is not found, the out-parameter is untouched. This lets you write: if (skip_prefix(arg, "foo ", &arg)) do_foo(arg); else if (skip_prefix(arg, "bar ", &arg)) do_bar(arg); Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

This is a convenience wrapper to call tolower on each character of the string.

2014-05-19commit: allow core.commentChar=auto for character auto selectionNguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy
When core.commentChar is "auto", the comment char starts with '#' as in default but if it's already in the prepared message, find another char in a small subset. This should stop surprises because git strips some lines unexpectedly. Note that git is not smart enough to recognize '#' as the comment char in custom templates and convert it if the final comment char is different. It thinks '#' lines in custom templates as part of the commit message. So don't use this with custom templates.

When we see a relative config include like: [include] path = foo we make it relative to the containing directory of the file that contains the snippet. This makes no sense for config read from a blob, as it is not on the filesystem. Something like "HEAD:some/path" could have a relative path within the tree, but: 1. It would not be part of include.path, which explicitly refers to the filesystem. 2. It would need different parsing rules anyway to determine that it is a tree path. The current code just uses the "name" field, which is wrong. Let's split that into "name" and "path" fields, use the latter for relative includes, and fill in only the former for blobs.
