2015-12-28t/t5516-fetch-push.sh: use the $( ... ) construct for command substitutionElia Pinto
The Git CodingGuidelines prefer the $(...) construct for command substitution instead of using the backquotes `...`. The backquoted form is the traditional method for command substitution, and is supported by POSIX. However, all but the simplest uses become complicated quickly. In particular, embedded command substitutions and/or the use of double quotes require careful escaping with the backslash character. The patch was generated by: for _f in $(find . -name "*.sh") do perl -i -pe 'BEGIN{undef $/;} s/`(.+?)`/\$(\1)/smg' "${_f}" done and then carefully proof-read.

2015-11-28add "ok=sigpipe" to test_must_fail and use it to fix flaky testsLars Schneider
t5516 "75 - deny fetch unreachable SHA1, allowtipsha1inwant=true" is flaky in the following case: 1. remote upload-pack finds out "not our ref" 2. remote sends a response and closes the pipe 3. fetch-pack still tries to write commands to the remote upload-pack 4. write call in wrapper.c dies with SIGPIPE The test is flaky because the sending fetch-pack may or may not have finished writing its output by step (3). If it did, then we see a closed pipe on the next read() call. If it didn't, then we get the SIGPIPE from step (4) above. Both are fine, but the latter fools test_must_fail. t5504 "9 - push with transfer.fsckobjects" is flaky, too, and returns SIGPIPE once in a while. I had to remove the final "To dst..." output check because there is no output if the process dies with SIGPIPE. Accept such a death-with-sigpipe also as OK when we are expecting a failure.

2015-05-23upload-pack: optionally allow fetching reachable sha1Fredrik Medley
With uploadpack.allowReachableSHA1InWant configuration option set on the server side, "git fetch" can make a request with a "want" line that names an object that has not been advertised (likely to have been obtained out of band or from a submodule pointer). Only objects reachable from the branch tips, i.e. the union of advertised branches and branches hidden by transfer.hideRefs, will be processed. Note that there is an associated cost of having to walk back the history to check the reachability. This feature can be used when obtaining the content of a certain commit, for which the sha1 is known, without the need of cloning the whole repository, especially if a shallow fetch is used. Useful cases are e.g. repositories containing large files in the history, fetching only the needed data for a submodule checkout, when sharing a sha1 without telling which exact branch it belongs to and in Gerrit, if you think in terms of commits instead of change numbers. (The Gerrit case has already been solved through allowTipSHA1InWant as every Gerrit change has a ref.)

2015-04-02push-to-deploy: allow pushing into an unborn branch and updating itJunio C Hamano
Setting receive.denycurrentbranch to updateinstead and pushing into the current branch, when the working tree and the index is truly clean, is supposed to reset the working tree and the index to match the tree of the pushed commit. This did not work when pushing into an unborn branch. The code that drives push-to-checkout hook needs no change, as the interface is defined so that hook can decide what to do when the push is coming to an unborn branch and take an appropriate action since the beginning.

"git fetch" that fetches a commit using the allow-tip-sha1-in-want extension could have failed to fetch all the requested refs. * jk/fetch-pack: fetch-pack: remove dead assignment to ref->new_sha1 fetch_refs_via_pack: free extra copy of refs filter_ref: make a copy of extra "sought" entries filter_ref: avoid overwriting ref->old_sha1 with garbage
2015-03-19filter_ref: make a copy of extra "sought" entriesJeff King
If the server supports allow_tip_sha1_in_want, we add any unmatched raw-sha1 entries in our "sought" list of refs to the list of refs we will ask the other side for. We do so by inserting the original "struct ref" directly into our list, rather than making a copy. This has several problems. The most minor problem is that one cannot ever free the resulting list; it contains structs that are copies of the remote refs (made earlier by fetch_pack) along with sought refs that are referenced elsewhere. But more importantly that we set the ref->next pointer to NULL, chopping off the remainder of any existing list that the ref was a part of. We get the set of "sought" refs in an array rather than a linked list, but that array is often in turn generated from a list. The test modification in t5516 demonstrates this. Rather than fetching just an exact sha1, we fetch that sha1 plus another ref: - we build a linked list of refs to fetch when do_fetch calls get_ref_map; the exact sha1 is first, followed by the named ref ("refs/heads/extra" in this case). - we pass that linked list to transport_fetch_ref, which squashes it into an array of pointers - that array goes to fetch_pack, which calls filter_ref. There we generate the want list from a mix of what the remote side has advertised, and the "sought" entry for the exact sha1. We set the sought entry's "next" pointer to NULL. - after we return from transport_fetch_refs, we then try to update the refs by following the linked list. But our list is now truncated, and we do not update refs/heads/extra at all. We can fix this by making a copy of the ref. There's nothing that fetch_pack does to it that must be reflected in the original "sought" list (and indeed, if that were the case we would have a serious bug, because it is only exact-sha1 entries which are treated this way).

2015-01-08receive-pack: support push-to-checkout hookJunio C Hamano
When receive.denyCurrentBranch is set to updateInstead, a push that tries to update the branch that is currently checked out is accepted only when the index and the working tree exactly matches the currently checked out commit, in which case the index and the working tree are updated to match the pushed commit. Otherwise the push is refused. This hook can be used to customize this "push-to-deploy" logic. The hook receives the commit with which the tip of the current branch is going to be updated, and can decide what kind of local changes are acceptable and how to update the index and the working tree to match the updated tip of the current branch. For example, the hook can simply run `git read-tree -u -m HEAD "$1"` in order to emulate 'git fetch' that is run in the reverse direction with `git push`, as the two-tree form of `read-tree -u -m` is essentially the same as `git checkout` that switches branches while keeping the local changes in the working tree that do not interfere with the difference between the branches.

The previous one tests only the case where a path to be updated by the push-to-deploy has an incompatible change in the target's working tree that has already been added to the index, but the feature itself wants to require the working tree to be a lot cleaner than what is tested. Add a handful more tests to protect the feature from future changes that mistakenly (from the viewpoint of the inventor of the feature) loosens the cleanliness requirement, namely: - A change only to the working tree but not to the index is still a change to be protected; - An untracked file in the working tree that would be overwritten by a push-to-deploy needs to be protected; - A change that happens to make a file identical to what is being pushed is still a change to be protected (i.e. the feature's cleanliness requirement is more strict than that of checkout). Also, test that a stat-only change to the working tree is not a reason to reject a push-to-deploy. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2014-12-01receive-pack: add another option for receive.denyCurrentBranchJohannes Schindelin
When synchronizing between working directories, it can be handy to update the current branch via 'push' rather than 'pull', e.g. when pushing a fix from inside a VM, or when pushing a fix made on a user's machine (where the developer is not at liberty to install an ssh daemon let alone know the user's password). The common workaround – pushing into a temporary branch and then merging on the other machine – is no longer necessary with this patch. The new option is: 'updateInstead': Update the working tree accordingly, but refuse to do so if there are any uncommitted changes.

Corner-case bugfixes for "git fetch" around reflog handling. * jk/fetch-reflog-df-conflict: ignore stale directories when checking reflog existence fetch: load all default config at startup
2014-11-04fetch: load all default config at startupJeff King
When we start the git-fetch program, we call git_config to load all config, but our callback only processes the fetch.prune option; we do not chain to git_default_config at all. This means that we may not load some core configuration which will have an effect. For instance, we do not load core.logAllRefUpdates, which impacts whether or not we create reflogs in a bare repository. Note that I said "may" above. It gets even more exciting. If we have to transfer actual objects as part of the fetch, then we call fetch_pack as part of the same process. That function loads its own config, which does chain to git_default_config, impacting global variables which are used by the rest of fetch. But if the fetch is a pure ref update (e.g., a new ref which is a copy of an old one), we skip fetch_pack entirely. So we get inconsistent results depending on whether or not we have actual objects to transfer or not! Let's just load the core config at the start of fetch, so we know we have it (we may also load it again as part of fetch_pack, but that's OK; it's designed to be idempotent). Our tests check both cases (with and without a pack). We also check similar behavior for push for good measure, but it already works as expected.

2014-10-19t5516: test pushing a tag of an otherwise unreferenced blobJeff King
It's not unreasonable to have a tag that points to a blob that is not part of the normal history. We do this in git.git to distribute gpg keys. However, we never explicitly checked in our test suite that this actually works (i.e., that pack-objects actually sends the blob because of the tag mentioning it). It does in fact work fine, but a recent patch under discussion broke this, and the test suite didn't notice. Let's make the test suite more complete.

2014-02-24remote: handle pushremote config in any orderJeff King
The remote we push can be defined either by remote.pushdefault or by branch.*.pushremote for the current branch. The order in which they appear in the config file should not matter to precedence (which should be to prefer the branch-specific config). The current code parses the config linearly and uses a single string to store both values, overwriting any previous value. Thus, config like: [branch "master"] pushremote = foo [remote] pushdefault = bar erroneously ends up pushing to "bar" from the master branch. We can fix this by storing both values and resolving the correct value after all config is read. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2013-12-04push: also use "upstream" mapping when pushing a single refJunio C Hamano
When the user is using the 'upstream' mode, these commands: $ git push $ git push origin would find the 'upstream' branch for the current branch, and then push the current branch to update it. However, pushing a single branch explicitly, i.e. $ git push origin $(git symbolic-ref --short HEAD) would not go through the same ref mapping process, and ends up updating the branch at 'origin' of the same name, which may not necessarily be the upstream of the branch being pushed. In the spirit similar to the previous one, map a colon-less refspec using the upstream mapping logic. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2013-12-04push: use remote.$name.push as a refmapJunio C Hamano
Since f2690487 (fetch: opportunistically update tracking refs, 2013-05-11), we stopped taking a non-storing refspec given on the command line of "git fetch" literally, and instead started mapping it via remote.$name.fetch refspecs. This allows $ git fetch origin master from the 'origin' repository, which is configured with [remote "origin"] fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/* to update refs/remotes/origin/master with the result, as if the command line were $ git fetch origin +master:refs/remotes/origin/master to reduce surprises and improve usability. Before that change, a refspec on the command line without a colon was only to fetch the history and leave the result in FETCH_HEAD, without updating the remote-tracking branches. When you are simulating a fetch from you by your mothership with a push by you into your mothership, instead of having: [remote "satellite"] fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/satellite/* on the mothership repository and running: mothership$ git fetch satellite you would have: [remote "mothership"] push = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/satellite/* on your satellite machine, and run: satellite$ git push mothership Because we so far did not make the corresponding change to the push side, this command: satellite$ git push mothership master does _not_ allow you on the satellite to only push 'master' out but still to the usual destination (i.e. refs/remotes/satellite/master). Implement the logic to map an unqualified refspec given on the command line via the remote.$name.push refspec. This will bring a bit more symmetry between "fetch" and "push".

2013-08-13push: respect --no-thinNguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy
- From the beginning of push.c in 755225d, 2006-04-29, "thin" option was enabled by default but could be turned off with --no-thin. - Then Shawn changed the default to 0 in favor of saving server resources in a4503a1, 2007-09-09. --no-thin worked great. - One day later, in 9b28851 Daniel extracted some code from push.c to create transport.c. He (probably accidentally) flipped the default value from 0 to 1 in transport_get(). From then on --no-thin is effectively no-op because git-push still expects the default value to be false and only calls transport_set_option() when "thin" variable in push.c is true (which is unnecessary). Correct the code to respect --no-thin by calling transport_set_option() in both cases. receive-pack learns about --reject-thin-pack-for-testing option, which only is for testing purposes, hence no document update.

2013-02-07upload/receive-pack: allow hiding ref hierarchiesJunio C Hamano
A repository may have refs that are only used for its internal bookkeeping purposes that should not be exposed to the others that come over the network. Teach upload-pack to omit some refs from its initial advertisement by paying attention to the uploadpack.hiderefs multi-valued configuration variable. Do the same to receive-pack via the receive.hiderefs variable. As a convenient short-hand, allow using transfer.hiderefs to set the value to both of these variables. Any ref that is under the hierarchies listed on the value of these variable is excluded from responses to requests made by "ls-remote", "fetch", etc. (for upload-pack) and "push" (for receive-pack). Because these hidden refs do not count as OUR_REF, an attempt to fetch objects at the tip of them will be rejected, and because these refs do not get advertised, "git push :" will not see local branches that have the same name as them as "matching" ones to be sent. An attempt to update/delete these hidden refs with an explicit refspec, e.g. "git push origin :refs/hidden/22", is rejected. This is not a new restriction. To the pusher, it would appear that there is no such ref, so its push request will conclude with "Now that I sent you all the data, it is time for you to update the refs. I saw that the ref did not exist when I started pushing, and I want the result to point at this commit". The receiving end will apply the compare-and-swap rule to this request and rejects the push with "Well, your update request conflicts with somebody else; I see there is such a ref.", which is the right thing to do. Otherwise a push to a hidden ref will always be "the last one wins", which is not a good default. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2013-01-16push: fix "refs/tags/ hierarchy cannot be updated without --force"Junio C Hamano
When pushing to update a branch with a commit that is not a descendant of the commit at the tip, a wrong message "already exists" was given, instead of the correct "non-fast-forward", if we do not have the object sitting in the destination repository at the tip of the ref we are updating. The primary cause of the bug is that the check in a new helper function is_forwardable() assumed both old and new objects are available and can be checked, which is not always the case. The way the caller uses the result of this function is also wrong. If the helper says "we do not want to let this push go through", the caller unconditionally translates it into "we blocked it because the destination already exists", which is not true at all in this case. Fix this by doing these three things: * Remove unnecessary not_forwardable from "struct ref"; it is only used inside set_ref_status_for_push(); * Make "refs/tags/" the only hierarchy that cannot be replaced without --force; * Remove the misguided attempt to force that everything that updates an existing ref has to be a commit outside "refs/tags/" hierarchy. The policy last one tried to implement may later be resurrected and extended to ensure fast-forwardness (defined as "not losing objects", extending from the traditional "not losing commits from the resulting history") when objects that are not commit are involved (e.g. an annotated tag in hierarchies outside refs/tags), but such a logic belongs to "is this a fast-forward?" check that is done by ref_newer(); is_forwardable(), which is now removed, was not the right place to do so.

2012-12-02push: require force for annotated tagsChris Rorvick
Do not allow fast-forwarding of references that point to a tag object. Updating from a tag is potentially destructive since it would likely leave the tag dangling. Disallowing updates to a tag also makes sense semantically and is consistent with the behavior of lightweight tags.

2012-12-02push: require force for refs under refs/tags/Chris Rorvick
References are allowed to update from one commit-ish to another if the former is an ancestor of the latter. This behavior is oriented to branches which are expected to move with commits. Tag references are expected to be static in a repository, though, thus an update to something under refs/tags/ should be rejected unless the update is forced.

2012-02-23push: add '--prune' optionFelipe Contreras
When pushing groups of refs to a remote, there is no simple way to remove old refs that still exist at the remote that is no longer updated from us. This will allow us to remove such refs from the remote. With this change, running this command $ git push --prune remote refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/laptop/* removes refs/remotes/laptop/foo from the remote if we do not have branch "foo" locally anymore.

2011-09-30receive-pack: don't pass non-existent refs to post-{receive,update} hooksPang Yan Han
When a push specifies deletion of non-existent refs, the post post-receive and post-update hooks receive them as input/arguments. For instance, for the following push, where refs/heads/nonexistent is a ref which does not exist on the remote side: git push origin :refs/heads/nonexistent the post-receive hook receives from standard input: <null-sha1> SP <null-sha1> SP refs/heads/nonexistent and the post-update hook receives as arguments: refs/heads/nonexistent which does not make sense since it is a no-op. Teach receive-pack not to pass non-existent refs to the post-receive and post-update hooks. If the push only attempts to delete non-existent refs, these hooks are not even called. The update and pre-receive hooks are still notified about attempted deletion of non-existent refs to give them a chance to inspect the situation and act on it.

2010-05-20start_command: close cmd->err descriptor when fork/spawn failsbert Dvornik
Fix the problem where the cmd->err passed into start_command wasn't being properly closed when certain types of errors occurr. (Compare the affected code with the clean shutdown code later in the function.) On Windows, this problem would be triggered if mingw_spawnvpe() failed, which would happen if the command to be executed was malformed (e.g. a text file that didn't start with a #! line). If cmd->err was a pipe, the failure to close it could result in a hang while the other side was waiting (forever) for either input or pipe close, e.g. while trying to shove the output into the side band. On msysGit, this problem was causing a hang in t5516-fetch-push.

2010-04-20receive-pack: detect aliased updates which can occur with symrefsJay Soffian
When pushing to a remote repo the sending side filters out aliased updates (e.g., foo:baz bar:baz). However, it is not possible for the sender to know if two refs are aliased on the receiving side via symrefs. Here is one such scenario: $ git init origin $ (cd origin && touch file && git add file && git commit -a -m intial) $ git clone --bare origin origin.git $ rm -rf origin $ git clone origin.git client $ git clone --mirror client backup.git && $ (cd backup.git && git remote set-head origin --auto) $ (cd client && git remote add --mirror backup ../backup.git && echo change1 > file && git commit -a -m change1 && git push origin && git push backup ) The push to backup fails with: Counting objects: 5, done. Writing objects: 100% (3/3), 244 bytes, done. Total 3 (delta 0), reused 0 (delta 0) Unpacking objects: 100% (3/3), done. error: Ref refs/remotes/origin/master is at ef3... but expected 262... remote: error: failed to lock refs/remotes/origin/master To ../backup.git 262cd57..ef307ff master -> master 262cd57..ef307ff origin/HEAD -> origin/HEAD ! [remote rejected] origin/master -> origin/master (failed to lock) error: failed to push some refs to '../backup.git' The reason is that refs/remotes/origin/HEAD is a symref to refs/remotes/origin/master, but it is not possible for the sending side to unambiguously know this. This commit fixes the issue by having receive-pack ignore any update to a symref whose target is being identically updated. If a symref and its target are being updated inconsistently, then the update for both fails with an error message ("refusing inconsistent update...") to help diagnose the situation.
