2015-01-07Merge branch 'jc/merge-bases'Junio C Hamano
The get_merge_bases*() API was easy to misuse by careless copy&paste coders, leaving object flags tainted in the commits that needed to be traversed. * jc/merge-bases: get_merge_bases(): always clean-up object flags bisect: clean flags after checking merge bases
2014-10-30get_merge_bases(): always clean-up object flagsJunio C Hamano
The callers of get_merge_bases() can choose to leave object flags used during the merge-base traversal by passing cleanup=0 as a parameter, but in practice a very few callers can afford to do so (namely, "git merge-base"), as they need to compute merge base in preparation for other processing of their own and they need to see the object without contaminate flags. Change the function signature of get_merge_bases_many() and get_merge_bases() to drop the cleanup parameter, so that the majority of the callers do not have to say ", 1" at the end. Give a new get_merge_bases_many_dirty() API to support only a few callers that know they do not need to spend cycles cleaning up the object flags. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2014-10-15refs.c: change resolve_ref_unsafe reading argument to be a flags fieldRonnie Sahlberg
resolve_ref_unsafe takes a boolean argument for reading (a nonexistent ref resolves successfully for writing but not for reading). Change this to be a flags field instead, and pass the new constant RESOLVE_REF_READING when we want this behaviour. While at it, swap two of the arguments in the function to put output arguments at the end. As a nice side effect, this ensures that we can catch callers that were unaware of the new API so they can be audited. Give the wrapper functions resolve_refdup and read_ref_full the same treatment for consistency.

2014-06-13commit: record buffer length in cacheJeff King
Most callsites which use the commit buffer try to use the cached version attached to the commit, rather than re-reading from disk. Unfortunately, that interface provides only a pointer to the NUL-terminated buffer, with no indication of the original length. For the most part, this doesn't matter. People do not put NULs in their commit messages, and the log code is happy to treat it all as a NUL-terminated string. However, some code paths do care. For example, when checking signatures, we want to be very careful that we verify all the bytes to avoid malicious trickery. This patch just adds an optional "size" out-pointer to get_commit_buffer and friends. The existing callers all pass NULL (there did not seem to be any obvious sites where we could avoid an immediate strlen() call, though perhaps with some further refactoring we could).

2014-06-13use get_commit_buffer everywhereJeff King
Each of these sites assumes that commit->buffer is valid. Since they would segfault if this was not the case, they are likely to be correct in practice. However, we can future-proof them by using get_commit_buffer. And as a side effect, we abstract away the final bare uses of commit->buffer.

2014-06-12replace dangerous uses of strbuf_attachJeff King
It is not a good idea to strbuf_attach an arbitrary pointer just because a function you are calling wants a strbuf. Attaching implies a transfer of memory ownership; if anyone were to modify or release the resulting strbuf, we would free() the pointer, leading to possible problems: 1. Other users of the original pointer might access freed memory. 2. The pointer might not be the start of a malloc'd area, so calling free() on it in the first place would be wrong. In the two cases modified here, we are fortunate that nobody touches the strbuf once it is attached, but it is an accident waiting to happen. Since the previous commit, commit_tree and friends take a pointer/buf pair, so we can just do away with the strbufs entirely.

2014-06-12commit_tree: take a pointer/len pair rather than a const strbufJeff King
While strbufs are pretty common throughout our code, it is more flexible for functions to take a pointer/len pair than a strbuf. It's easy to turn a strbuf into such a pair (by dereferencing its members), but less easy to go the other way (you can strbuf_attach, but that has implications about memory ownership). This patch teaches commit_tree (and its associated callers and sub-functions) to take such a pair for the commit message rather than a strbuf. This makes passing the buffer around slightly more verbose, but means we can get rid of some dangerous strbuf_attach calls in the next patch.

Remove unnecessary code. * tr/void-diff-setup-done: diff_setup_done(): return void
2012-08-03diff_setup_done(): return voidThomas Rast
diff_setup_done() has historically returned an error code, but lost the last nonzero return in 943d5b7 (allow diff.renamelimit to be set regardless of -M/-C, 2006-08-09). The callers were in a pretty confused state: some actually checked for the return code, and some did not. Let it return void, and patch all callers to take this into account. This conveniently also gets rid of a handful of different(!) error messages that could never be triggered anyway. Note that the function can still die().

2012-03-15notes-merge: Don't remove .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE; it may be the user's cwdJohan Herland
When a manual notes merge is committed or aborted, we need to remove the temporary worktree at .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE. However, removing the entire directory is not good if the user ran the 'git notes merge --commit/--abort' from within that directory. On Windows, the directory removal would simply fail, while on POSIX systems, users would suddenly find themselves in an invalid current directory. Therefore, instead of deleting the entire directory, we delete everything _within_ the directory, and leave the (empty) directory in place. This would cause a subsequent notes merge to abort, complaining about a previous - unfinished - notes merge (due to the presence of .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE), so we also need to adjust this check to only trigger when .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE is non-empty. Finally, adjust the t3310 manual notes merge testcases to correctly handle the existence of an empty .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE directory.

2012-03-15notes-merge: use opendir/readdir instead of using read_directory()Johan Herland
notes_merge_commit() only needs to list all entries (non-recursively) under a directory, which can be easily accomplished with opendir/readdir and would be more lightweight than read_directory(). read_directory() is designed to list paths inside a working directory. Using it outside of its scope may lead to undesired effects. Apparently, one of the undesired effects of read_directory() is that it doesn't deal with being given absolute paths. This creates problems for notes_merge_commit() when git_path() returns an absolute path, which happens when the current working directory is in a subdirectory of the .git directory.

2011-11-18notes merge: eliminate OUTPUT macroJonathan Nieder
The macro is variadic, which breaks support for pre-C99 compilers, and it hides an "if", which can make code hard to understand on first reading if some arguments have side-effects. The OUTPUT macro seems to have been inspired by the "output" function from merge-recursive. But that function in merge-recursive exists to indent output based on the level of recursion and there is no similar justification for such a function in "notes merge".

2011-11-13Convert many resolve_ref() calls to read_ref*() and ref_exists()Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy
resolve_ref() may return a pointer to a static buffer, which is not safe for long-term use because if another resolve_ref() call happens, the buffer may be changed. Many call sites though do not care about this buffer. They simply check if the return value is NULL or not. Convert all these call sites to new wrappers to reduce resolve_ref() calls from 57 to 34. If we change resolve_ref() prototype later on to avoid passing static buffer out, this helps reduce changes.

2011-11-13commit: teach --gpg-sign optionJunio C Hamano
This uses the gpg-interface.[ch] to allow signing the commit, i.e. $ git commit --gpg-sign -m foo You need a passphrase to unlock the secret key for user: "Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>" 4096-bit RSA key, ID 96AFE6CB, created 2011-10-03 (main key ID 713660A7) [master 8457d13] foo 1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) The lines of GPG detached signature are placed in a new multi-line header field, instead of tucking the signature block at the end of the commit log message text (similar to how signed tag is done), for multiple reasons: - The signature won't clutter output from "git log" and friends if it is in the extra header. If we place it at the end of the log message, we would need to teach "git log" and friends to strip the signature block with an option. - Teaching new versions of "git log" and "gitk" to optionally verify and show signatures is cleaner if we structurally know where the signature block is (instead of scanning in the commit log message). - The signature needs to be stripped upon various commit rewriting operations, e.g. rebase, filter-branch, etc. They all already ignore unknown headers, but if we place signature in the log message, all of these tools (and third-party tools) also need to learn how a signature block would look like. - When we added the optional encoding header, all the tools (both in tree and third-party) that acts on the raw commit object should have been fixed to ignore headers they do not understand, so it is not like that new header would be more likely to break than extra text in the commit.

2010-11-17git notes merge: Manual conflict resolution, part 2/2Johan Herland
When the notes merge conflicts in .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE have been resolved, we need to record a new notes commit on the appropriate notes ref with the resolved notes. This patch implements 'git notes merge --commit' which the user should run after resolving conflicts in the notes merge worktree. This command finalizes the notes merge by recombining the partial notes tree from part 1 with the now-resolved conflicts in the notes merge worktree in a merge commit, and updating the appropriate ref to this merge commit. In order to correctly finalize the merge, we need to keep track of three things: - The partial merge result from part 1, containing the auto-merged notes. This is now stored into a ref called .git/NOTES_MERGE_PARTIAL. - The unmerged notes. These are already stored in .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE, thanks to part 1. - The notes ref to be updated by the finalized merge result. This is now stored in a symref called .git/NOTES_MERGE_REF. In addition to "git notes merge --commit", which uses the above details to create the finalized notes merge commit, this patch also implements "git notes merge --reset", which aborts the ongoing notes merge by simply removing the files/directory described above. FTR, "git notes merge --commit" reuses "git notes merge --reset" to remove the information described above (.git/NOTES_MERGE_*) after the notes merge have been successfully finalized. The patch also contains documentation and testcases for the two new options.

Conflicts (that are to be resolved manually) are written into a special- purpose working tree, located at .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE. Within this directory, conflicting notes entries are stored (with conflict markers produced by ll_merge()) using the SHA1 of the annotated object. The .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE directory will only contain the _conflicting_ note entries. The non-conflicting note entries (aka. the partial merge result) are stored in 'local_tree', and the SHA1 of the resulting commit is written to 'result_sha1'. The return value from notes_merge() is -1. The user is told to edit the files within the .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE directory in order to resolve the conflicts. The patch also contains documentation and testcases for the correct setup of .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE.

The new -s/--strategy command-line option to 'git notes merge' allow the user to choose how notes merge conflicts should be resolved. There are four valid strategies to choose from: 1. "manual" (the default): This will let the user manually resolve conflicts. This option currently fails with an error message. It will be implemented properly in future patches. 2. "ours": This automatically chooses the local version of a conflict, and discards the remote version. 3. "theirs": This automatically chooses the remote version of a conflict, and discards the local version. 4.

2010-11-17git notes merge: Handle real, non-conflicting notes mergesJohan Herland
This continuation of the 'git notes merge' implementation teaches notes-merge to properly do real merges between notes trees: Two diffs are performed, one from $base to $remote, and another from $base to $local. The paths in each diff are normalized to SHA1 object names. The two diffs are then consolidated into a single list of change pairs to be evaluated. Each change pair consist of: - The annotated object's SHA1 - The $base SHA1 (i.e. the common ancestor notes for this object) - The $local SHA1 (i.e. the current notes for this object) - The $remote SHA1 (i.e. the to-be-merged notes for this object) From the pair ($base -> $local, $base -> $remote), we can determine the merge result using regular 3-way rules. If conflicts are encountered in this process, we fail loudly and exit (conflict handling to be added in a future patch), If we can complete the merge without conflicts, the resulting notes tree is committed, and the current notes ref updated. The patch includes added testcases verifying that we can successfully do real conflict-less merges.
