13 years agoblame: add --abbrev command line option and make it honor core.abbrev

blame: add --abbrev command line option and make it honor core.abbrev

If user sets config.abbrev option, use it as if --abbrev was given.  This
is the default value and user can override different abbrev length by
specifying the --abbrev=N command line option.

Jonathan Nieder [Fri, 18 Mar 2011 20:23:52 +0000 (15:23 -0500)]
compat: add missing #include <sys/resource.h>

Starting with commit c793430 (Limit file descriptors used by packs,
2011-02-28), git uses getrlimit to tell how many file descriptors it
can use.  Unfortunately it does not include the header declaring that
function, resulting in compilation errors:

 sha1_file.c: In function 'open_packed_git_1':
 sha1_file.c:718: error: storage size of 'lim' isn't known
 sha1_file.c:721: warning: implicit declaration of function 'getrlimit'
 sha1_file.c:721: error: 'RLIMIT_NOFILE' undeclared (first use in this function)
 sha1_file.c:718: warning: unused variable 'lim'

The standard header to include for this is <sys/resource.h> (which on
some systems itself requires declarations from <sys/types.h> or
<sys/time.h>).  Probably the problem was missed until now because in
current glibc sys/resource.h happens to be included by sys/wait.h.

MinGW does not provide sys/resource.h (and compat/mingw takes care of
providing getrlimit some other way), so add the missing #include to
the "#ifndef __MINGW32__" block in git-compat-util.h.

Nicolas Morey-Chaisemartin [Wed, 30 Mar 2011 05:20:02 +0000 (07:20 +0200)]
submodule: process conflicting submodules only once

During a merge module_list returns conflicting submodules several times
(stage 1,2,3) which caused the submodules to be used multiple times in
git submodule init, sync, update and status command.

There are 5 callers of module_list; they all read (mode, sha1, stage,
path) tuple, and most of them care only about path.  As a first level
approximation, it should be Ok (in the sense that it does not make things
worse than it currently is) to filter the duplicate paths from module_list
output, but some callers should change their behaviour when the merge in
the superproject still has conflicts.

Notice the higher-stage entries, and emit only one record from
module_list, but while doing so, mark the entry with "U" (not [0-3]) in
the $stage field and null out the SHA-1 part, as the object name for the
lowest stage does not give any useful information to the caller, and this
way any caller that uses the object name would hopefully barf.  Then
update the codepaths for each subcommands this way:

 - "update" should not touch the submodule repository, because we do not
   know what commit should be checked out yet.

 - "status" reports the conflicting submodules as 'U000...000' and does
   not recurse into them (we might later want to make it recurse).

 - The command called by "foreach" may want to do whatever it wants to do
   by noticing the merged status in the superproject itself, so feed the
   path to it from module_list as before, but only once per submodule.

 - "init" and "sync" are unlikely things to do while the superproject is
   still not merged, but as long as a submodule is there in $path, there
   is no point skipping it. It might however want to take the merged
   status of .gitmodules into account, but that is outside of the scope of
   this topic.

tests: kill backgrounded processes more robustly

t0081 creates several background processes that write to a fifo and
then go to sleep for a while (so the reader of the fifo does not see
EOF).

Each background process is made in a curly-braced block in the shell,
and after we are done reading from the fifo, we use "kill $!" to kill
it off.

For a simple, single-command process, this works reliably and kills
the child sleep process. But for more complex commands like
"make_some_output && sleep", the results are less predictable. When
executing under bash, we end up with a subshell that gets killed by
the $! but leaves the sleep process still alive.

This is bad not only for process hygeine (we are leaving random sleep
processes to expire after a while), but also interacts badly with the
"prove" command. When prove executes a test, it does not realize the
test is done when it sees SIGCHLD, but rather waits until the test's
stdout pipe is closed. The orphaned sleep process may keep that pipe
open via test-lib's file descriptor 5, causing prove to hang for 100
seconds.

The solution is to explicitly use a subshell and to exec the final
sleep process, so that when we "kill $!" we get the process id of the
sleep process.

[jn: original patch by Jeff had some additional bits:

   1. Wrap the "kill" in a test_when_finished, since we want
      to clean up the process whether the test succeeds or not.

   2. The "kill" is part of our && chain for test success. It
      probably won't fail, but it can if the process has
      expired before we manage to kill it. So let's mark it
      as OK to fail.

 I'm postponing that for now.]

Fix potential local deadlock during fetch-pack

The fetch-pack/upload-pack protocol relies on the underlying transport
(local pipe or TCP socket) to have enough slack to allow one window worth
of data in flight without blocking the writer.  Traditionally we always
relied on being able to have two windows of 32 "have"s in flight (roughly
3k bytes) to stream.

The recent "progressive-stride" change allows "fetch-pack" to send up to
1024 "have"s without reading any response from "upload-pack".  The
outgoing pipe of "upload-pack" can be clogged with many ACK and NAK that
are unread, while "fetch-pack" is still stuffing its outgoing pipe with
more "have"s, leading to a deadlock.

Revert the change unless we are in stateless rpc (aka smart-http) mode, as
using a large window full of "have"s is still a good way to help reduce
the number of back-and-forth, and there is no buffering issue there (it is

13 years agoImprove test for pthreads flag
Giuseppe Bilotta [Mon, 28 Mar 2011 07:39:59 +0000 (09:39 +0200)]
Improve test for pthreads flag

When compiling with CC=clang using Clang 1.1 as shipped by Debian
unstable (package version 2.7-3), the -mt flag is sufficient to compile
during the `configure` test. However, building git would then fail at
link time complaining about missing symbols such as `pthread_key_create'
and `pthread_create'.

Work around this issue by adding pthread key creation to the pthreads
configure test source.

fwrite instead of printf to write it to fast-import so embedded '\0'
bytes can be preserved.

Currently "git log" doesn't show the embedded NULs but "git cat-file
commit" can.

While at it, stop including system headers from repo_tree.h.  git
source files need to include git-compat-util.h (or cache.h or
builtin.h) sooner to ensure the appropriate feature test macros are

vcs-svn: make reading of properties binary-safe

svn-fe errors out on revision 59151 of the ASF repository:

 fatal: invalid dump: unexpected end of file

The proximate cause is a property with an embedded NUL character.
Previously such anomalies were ignored but commit c9d1c8ba
(2010-12-28) introduced a check strlen(val) == len to avoid reading
uninitialized data when a property list ends early and unfortunately
this test does not distinguish between "foo" followed by EOF and the
string "foo\0bar\0baz".

Fix it by using buffer_read_binary to read to a strbuf and checking
the actual length read.  Most consumers of properties still use
C-style strings, so in practice an author or log message with embedded
NULs will be truncated, but a least this way svn-fe won't error out
(fixing the regression).

merge: merge unborn index before setting ref

When we merge into an unborn branch, there are basically two
steps:

  1. Write the sha1 of the new commit into the ref pointed
     to by HEAD.

  2. Update the index with the new content, and check it out
     to the working tree.

We currently do them in this order. However, (2) is the step
that is much more likely to fail, since it can be blocked by
things like untracked working tree files. When it does, the
merge fails and we are left with an empty index but an
updated HEAD.

This patch switches the order, so that a failure in updating
the index leaves us unchanged. Of course, a failure in
updating the ref now leaves us with an updated index and
mis-matched HEAD. That is arguably not much better, but it
is probably less likely to actually happen.
