2015-03-17Merge branch 'mg/sequencer-commit-messages-always-verbatim'Junio C Hamano
"git cherry-pick" used to clean-up the log message even when it is merely replaying an existing commit. It now replays the message verbatim unless you are editing the message of resulting commits. * mg/sequencer-commit-messages-always-verbatim: sequencer: preserve commit messages
2015-03-06sequencer: preserve commit messagesMichael J Gruber
sequencer calls "commit" with default options, which implies "--cleanup=default" unless the user specified something else in their config. This leads to cherry-picked commits getting a cleaned up commit message, which is usually not an intended side-effect. Make the sequencer use "--cleanup=verbatim" so that it preserves commit messages independent of the default, unless the user has set config for "commit" or the message is amended with -s or -x.

2014-10-28merge & sequencer: turn "Conflicts:" hint into a commentJunio C Hamano
Just like other hints such as "Changes to be committed" we show in the editor to remind the committer what paths were involved in the resulting commit to help improving their log message, this section is merely a reminder. Traditionally, it was not made into comments primarily because it has to be generated outside the wt-status infrastructure, and also because it was meant as a bit stronger reminder than the others (i.e. explaining how you resolved conflicts is much more important than mentioning what you did to every paths involved in the commit). But that still does not make this hint a part of the log message proper, and not showing it as a comment is inviting mistakes. Note that we still notice "Conflicts:" followed by list of indented pathnames as an old-style cruft and insert a new Signed-off-by: before it. This is so that "commit --amend -s" adds the new S-o-b at the right place when used on an older commit. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2014-10-24merge & sequencer: unify codepaths that write "Conflicts:" hintJunio C Hamano
Two identical loops in suggest_conflicts() in merge, and do_recursive_merge() in sequencer, can use a single helper function extracted from the latter that prepares the "Conflicts:" hint that is meant to remind the user the paths for which merge conflicts had to be resolved to write a better commit log message.

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.

2014-06-13convert logmsg_reencode to get_commit_bufferJeff King
Like the callsites in the previous commit, logmsg_reencode already falls back to read_sha1_file when necessary. However, I split its conversion out into its own commit because it's a bit more complex. We return either: 1. The original commit->buffer 2. A newly allocated buffer from read_sha1_file 3. A reencoded buffer (based on either 1 or 2 above). while trying to do as few extra reads/allocations as possible. Callers currently free the result with logmsg_free, but we can simplify this by pointing them straight to unuse_commit_buffer. This is a slight layering violation, in that we may be passing a buffer from (3). However, since the end result is to free() anything except (1), which is unlikely to change, and because this makes the interface much simpler, it's a reasonable bending of the rules.

2014-06-12sequencer: use logmsg_reencode in get_messageJeff King
This simplifies the code, as logmsg_reencode handles the reencoding for us in a single call. It also means we learn logmsg_reencode's trick of pulling the buffer from disk when commit->buffer is NULL (we currently just silently return!). It is doubtful this matters in practice, though, as sequencer operations would not generally turn off save_commit_buffer. Note that we may be fixing a bug here. The existing code does: if (same_encoding(to, from)) reencode_string(buf, to, from); That probably should have been "!same_encoding".

2014-06-09sequencer: signal failed ff as an aborted, not a conflicted mergeFabian Ruch
`do_pick_commit` handles three situations if it is not fast-forwarding. In order for `do_pick_commit` to identify the situation, it examines the return value of the selected merge command. 1. return value 0 stands for a clean merge 2. 1 is passed in case of a failed merge due to conflict 3. any other return value means that the merge did not even start So far, the sequencer returns 1 in case of a failed fast-forward, which would mean "failed merge due to conflict". However, a fast-forward either starts and succeeds or does not start at all. In particular, it cannot fail in between like a merge with a dirty index due to conflicts. In order to signal the three possible situations (not only success and failure to complete) after a pick through porcelain commands such as `cherry-pick`, exit with a return value that is neither 0 nor 1. 128 was chosen in line with the other situations in which the sequencer encounters an error. In such situations, the sequencer returns a negative value and `cherry-pick` translates this into a call to `die`. `die` then terminates the process with exit status 128.

2014-04-17sequencer.c: check for lock failure and bail early in fast_forward_toRonnie Sahlberg
Change fast_forward_to() to check if locking the ref failed, print a nice error message and bail out early. The old code did not check if ref_lock was NULL and relied on the fact that the write_ref_sha1() would safely detect this condition and set the return variable ret to indicate an error. While that is safe, it makes the code harder to read for two reasons: * Inconsistency. Almost all other places we do check the lock for NULL explicitly, so the naive reader is confused "why don't we check here?" * And relying on write_ref_sha1() to detect and return an error for when a previous lock_any_ref_for_update() failed feels obfuscated. This change should not change any functionality or logic aside from adding an extra error message when this condition is triggered (write_ref_sha1() returns an error silently for this condition).

2013-07-09Convert "struct cache_entry *" to "const ..." wherever possibleNguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy
I attempted to make index_state->cache[] a "const struct cache_entry **" to find out how existing entries in index are modified and where. The question I have is what do we do if we really need to keep track of on-disk changes in the index. The result is - diff-lib.c: setting CE_UPTODATE - name-hash.c: setting CE_HASHED - preload-index.c, read-cache.c, unpack-trees.c and builtin/update-index: obvious - entry.c: write_entry() may refresh the checked out entry via fill_stat_cache_info(). This causes "non-const struct cache_entry *" in builtin/apply.c, builtin/checkout-index.c and builtin/checkout.c - builtin/ls-files.c: --with-tree changes stagemask and may set CE_UPDATE Of these, write_entry() and its call sites are probably most interesting because it modifies on-disk info. But this is stat info and can be retrieved via refresh, at least for porcelain commands. Other just uses ce_flags for local purposes. So, keeping track of "dirty" entries is just a matter of setting a flag in index modification functions exposed by read-cache.c. Except unpack-trees, the rest of the code base does not do anything funny behind read-cache's back. The actual patch is less valueable than the summary above. But if anyone wants to re-identify the above sites. Applying this patch, then this: diff --git a/cache.h b/cache.h index 430d021..1692891 100644 --- a/cache.h +++ b/cache.h @@ -267,7 +267,7 @@ static inline unsigned int canon_mode(unsigned int mode) #define cache_entry_size(len) (offsetof(struct cache_entry,name) + (len) + 1) struct index_state { - struct cache_entry **cache; + const struct cache_entry **cache; unsigned int version; unsigned int cache_nr, cache_alloc, cache_changed; struct string_list *resolve_undo; will help quickly identify them without bogus warnings.

2013-02-12sequencer.c: require a conforming footer to be preceded by a blank lineBrandon Casey
Currently, append_signoff() performs a search for the last line of the commit buffer by searching back from the end until it hits a newline. If it reaches the beginning of the buffer without finding a newline, that means either the commit message was empty, or there was only one line in it. In this case, append_signoff will skip the call to has_conforming_footer since it already knows that it is necessary to append a newline before appending the sob. Let's perform this function inside of has_conforming_footer where it appropriately belongs and generalize it so that we require that the footer paragraph be an actual distinct paragraph separated by a blank line.

2013-02-12commit, cherry-pick -s: remove broken support for multiline rfc2822 fieldsBrandon Casey
Starting with c1e01b0c (commit: More generous accepting of RFC-2822 footer lines, 2009-10-28), "git commit -s" carefully parses the last paragraph of each commit message to check if it consists only of RFC2822-style headers, in which case the signoff will be added as a new line in the same list: Reported-by: Reporter <reporter@example.com> Signed-off-by: Author <author@example.com> Acked-by: Lieutenant <lt@example.com> It even included support for accepting indented continuation lines for multiline fields. Unfortunately the multiline field support is broken because it checks whether buf[k] (the first character of the *next* line) instead of buf[i] is a whitespace character. The result is that any footer with a continuation line is not accepted, since the last continuation line neither starts with an RFC2822 field name nor is followed by a continuation line. That this has remained broken for so long is good evidence that nobody actually needed multiline fields. Rip out the broken continuation support. There should be no functional change.

2012-12-23learn to pick/revert into unborn branchMartin von Zweigbergk
cherry-picking into an unborn branch should work, so make it work, with or without --ff. Cherry-picking anything other than a commit that only adds files, will naturally result in conflicts. Similarly, revert also works, but will result in conflicts unless the specified revision only deletes files.
