* sequencer: pass absolute GIT_DIR to exec commandsjk/rebase-i-exec-gitdir-fixJacob Keller2017-11-022-1/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we replaced the old shell script based interactive rebase in commmit 18633e1a22a6 ("rebase -i: use the rebase--helper builtin", 2017-02-09) we introduced a regression of functionality in that the GIT_DIR would be sent to the environment of the exec command as-is. This generally meant that it would be passed as "GIT_DIR=.git", which causes problems for any exec command that wants to run git commands in a subdirectory. This isn't a very large regression, since it is not that likely that the exec command will run a git command, and even less likely that it will need to do so in a subdir. This regression was discovered by a build system which uses git-describe to find the current version of the build system, and happened to do so from the src/ sub directory of the project. Fix this by passing in the absolute path of the git directory into the child environment.

| * rebase -i: use the rebase--helper builtinJohannes Schindelin2017-02-092-1/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that the sequencer learned to process a "normal" interactive rebase, we use it. The original shell script is still used for "non-normal" interactive rebases, i.e. when --root or --preserve-merges was passed. Please note that the --root option (via the $squash_onto variable) needs special handling only for the very first command, hence it is still okay to use the helper upon continue/skip. Also please note that the --no-ff setting is volatile, i.e. when the interactive rebase is interrupted at any stage, there is no record of it. Therefore, we have to pass it from the shell script to the rebase--helper. Note: the test t3404 had to be adjusted because the the error messages produced by the sequencer comply with our current convention to start with a lower-case letter.

| * rebase--helper: add a builtin helper for interactive rebasesJohannes Schindelin2017-02-095-0/+44
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Git's interactive rebase is still implemented as a shell script, despite its complexity. This implies that it suffers from the portability point of view, from lack of expressibility, and of course also from performance. The latter issue is particularly serious on Windows, where we pay a hefty price for relying so much on POSIX. Unfortunately, being such a huge shell script also means that we missed the train when it would have been relatively easy to port it to C, and instead piled feature upon feature onto that poor script that originally never intended to be more than a slightly pimped cherry-pick in a loop. To open the road toward better performance (in addition to all the other benefits of C over shell scripts), let's just start *somewhere*. The approach taken here is to add a builtin helper that at first intends to take care of the parts of the interactive rebase that are most affected by the performance penalties mentioned above. In particular, after we spent all those efforts on preparing the sequencer to process rebase -i's git-rebase-todo scripts, we implement the `git rebase -i --continue` functionality as a new builtin, git-rebase--helper. Once that is in place, we can work gradually on tackling the rest of the technical debt. Note that the rebase--helper needs to learn about the transient --ff/--no-ff options of git-rebase, as the corresponding flag is not persisted to, and re-read from, the state directory.

| * | attr: reformat git_attr_set_direction() functionbw/attrBrandon Williams2017-02-012-30/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Move the 'git_attr_set_direction()' up to be closer to the variables that it modifies as well as a small formatting by renaming the variable 'new' to 'new_direction' so that it is more descriptive. Update the comment about how 'direction' is used to read the state of the world. It should be noted that callers of 'git_attr_set_direction()' should ensure that other threads are not making calls into the attribute system until after the call to 'git_attr_set_direction()' completes. This function essentially acts as reset button for the attribute system and should be handled with care.

| * | attr: store attribute stack in attr_check structureBrandon Williams2017-02-012-89/+199
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The last big hurdle towards a thread-safe API for the attribute system is the reliance on a global attribute stack that is modified during each call into the attribute system. This patch removes this global stack and instead a stack is stored locally in each attr_check instance. This opens up the opportunity for future optimizations to customize the attribute stack for the attributes that a particular attr_check struct is interested in. One caveat with pushing the attribute stack into the attr_check structure is that the attribute system now needs to keep track of all active attr_check instances. Due to the direction mechanism the stack needs to be dropped when the direction is switched. In order to ensure correctness when the direction is changed the attribute system needs to iterate through all active attr_check instances and drop each of their stacks.

| * | attr: remove maybe-real, maybe-macro from git_attrBrandon Williams2017-02-011-38/+37
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Whether or not a git attribute is real or a macro isn't a property of the attribute but rather it depends on the attribute stack (which .gitattribute files were read). This patch removes the 'maybe_real' and 'maybe_macro' fields in a git_attr and instead adds the 'macro' field to a attr_check_item. The 'macro' indicates (if non-NULL) that a particular attribute is a macro for the given attribute stack. It's populated, through a quick scan of the attribute stack, with the match_attr that corresponds to the macro's definition. This way the attribute stack only needs to be scanned a single time prior to attribute collection instead of each time a macro needs to be expanded.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently there is a reliance on 'check_all_attr' which is a global array of 'attr_check_item' items which is used to store the value of each attribute during the collection process. This patch eliminates this global and instead creates an array per 'attr_check' instance which is then used in the attribute collection process.

| * | attr: (re)introduce git_check_attr() and struct attr_checkJunio C Hamano2017-02-012-0/+91
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A common pattern to check N attributes for many paths is to (1) prepare an array A of N attr_check_item items; (2) call git_attr() to intern the N attribute names and fill A; (3) repeatedly call git_check_attrs() for path with N and A; A look-up for these N attributes for a single path P scans the entire attr_stack, starting from the .git/info/attributes file and then .gitattributes file in the directory the path P is in, going upwards to find .gitattributes file found in parent directories. An earlier commit 06a604e6 (attr: avoid heavy work when we know the specified attr is not defined, 2014-12-28) tried to optimize out this scanning for one trivial special case: when the attribute being sought is known not to exist, we do not have to scan for it. While this may be a cheap and effective heuristic, it would not work well when N is (much) more than 1. What we would want is a more customized way to skip irrelevant entries in the attribute stack, and the definition of irrelevance is tied to the set of attributes passed to git_check_attrs() call, i.e. the set of attributes being sought. The data necessary for this optimization needs to live alongside the set of attributes, but a simple array of git_attr_check_elem simply does not have any place for that. Introduce "struct attr_check" that contains N, the number of attributes being sought, and A, the array that holds N attr_check_item items, and a function git_check_attr() that takes a path P and this structure as its parameters. This structure can later be extended to hold extra data necessary for optimization. Also, to make it easier to write the first two steps in common cases, introduce git_attr_check_initl() helper function, which takes a NULL-terminated list of attribute names and initialize this structure.

The command substitution involves the forking of a subshell, which has considerable overhead on some platforms. 2. There are a few cases, where this command substitution is executed more than once during a single completion, which means multiple subshells and possibly multiple 'git rev-parse' executions. __gitdir() is invoked twice while completing refs for e.g. 'git log', 'git rebase', 'gitk', or while completing remote refs for 'git fetch' or 'git push'. Both of these points can be addressed by using the __git_find_repo_path() helper function introduced in the previous commit: 1. __git_find_repo_path() stores the path to the repository in a variable instead of printing it, so the command substitution around the function can be avoided. Or rather: the command substitution should be avoided to make the new value of the variable set inside the function visible to the callers. (Yes, there is now a command substitution inside __git_find_repo_path() around each 'git rev-parse', but that's executed only if necessary, and only once per completion, see point 2. below.) 2. $__git_repo_path, the variable holding the path to the repository, is declared local in the toplevel completion functions __git_main() and __gitk_main(). Thus, once set, the path is visible in all completion functions, including all subsequent calls to __git_find_repo_path(), meaning that they wouldn't have to re-discover the path to the repository. So call __git_find_repo_path() and use $__git_repo_path instead of the $(__gitdir) command substitution to access paths in the .git directory. Turn tests checking __gitdir()'s repository discovery into tests of __git_find_repo_path() such that only the tested function changes but the expected results don't, ensuring that repo discovery keeps working as it did before. As __gitdir() is not used anymore in the completion script, mark it as deprecated and direct users' attention to __git_find_repo_path() and $__git_repo_path. Yet keep four __gitdir() tests to ensure that it handles success and failure of __git_find_repo_path() and that it still handles its optional remote argument, because users' custom completion scriptlets might depend on it.

Make __gitdir() a wrapper around this new function. Declare $__git_repo_path local in the toplevel completion functions __git_main() and __gitk_main() to ensure that it never leaks into the environment and influences subsequent completions (though this isn't necessary right now, as __gitdir() is still only executed in subshells, but will matter for the following commit). Adjust tests checking __gitdir() or any other completion function calling __gitdir() to perform those checks in a subshell to prevent $__git_repo_path from leaking into the test environment. Otherwise leave the tests unchanged to demonstrate that this change doesn't alter __gitdir()'s behavior.

After the previous changes in this series there are no further uses of __gitdir()'s output in these functions besides those checks. And those checks are unnecessary, because we can just execute those git commands outside of a repository and let them error out. We don't perform such a check in other places either. Remove this check and the __gitdir() call from these functions, sparing the fork()+exec() overhead of the command substitution and the potential 'git rev-parse' execution.

We already silence stderr of many git commands in our Bash completion script, but there are still some in there that can spew error messages when something goes wrong. We could add the missing stderr redirections to all the remaining places, but instead let's leverage that git commands are now executed through the previously introduced __git() wrapper function, and redirect standard error to /dev/null only in that function. This way we need only one redirection to take care of errors from almost all git commands. Redirecting standard error of the __git() wrapper function thus became redundant, remove them. The exceptions, i.e. the repo-independent git executions and those in the __gitdir() function that don't go through __git() already have their standard error silenced.

Now, if neither '--gitdir=<path>' nor '-C <path>' options are specified on the command line, then those git commands are perfectly capable to discover the repository on their own. If either one or both of those options are specified on the command line, then, again, the git commands could discover the repository, if we pass them all of those options from the command line. This means we don't have to run __gitdir() at all for git commands and can spare its fork()+exec() overhead. Use Bash parameter expansions to check the $__git_dir variable and $__git_C_args array and to assemble the appropriate '--git-dir=<path>' and '-C <path>' options if either one or both are present on the command line. These parameter expansions are, however, rather long, so instead of changing all git executions and make already long lines even longer, encapsulate running git with '--git-dir=<path> -C <path>' options into the new __git() wrapper function. Furthermore, this wrapper function will also enable us to silence error messages from git commands uniformly in one place in a later commit. There's one tricky case, though: in __git_refs() local refs are listed with 'git for-each-ref', where "local" is not necessarily the repository we are currently in, but it might mean a remote repository in the filesystem (e.g. listing refs for 'git fetch /some/other/repo <TAB>'). Use one-shot variable assignment to override $__git_dir with the path of the repository where the refs should come from. Although one-shot variable assignments in front of shell functions are to be avoided in our scripts in general, in the Bash completion script we can do that safely.

However, unlike '--git-dir=<path>', the '-C <path>' option can be specified multiple times and their effect is cumulative, so we can't just store a single '<path>' in a variable. Nor can we simply concatenate a path from '-C <path1> -C <path2> ...', because e.g. (in an arguably pathological corner case) a relative path might be followed by an absolute path. Instead, store all '-C <path>' options word by word in the $__git_C_args array in the main git completion function, and pass this array, if present, to 'git rev-parse --absolute-git-dir' when discovering the repository in __gitdir(), and let it take care of multiple options, relative paths, absolute paths and everything. Also pass all '-C <path> options via the $__git_C_args array to those git executions which require a worktree and for which it matters from which directory they are executed from. There are only three such cases: - 'git diff-index' and 'git ls-files' in __git_ls_files_helper() used for git-aware filename completion, and - the 'git ls-tree' used for completing the 'ref:path' notation. The other git commands executed in the completion script don't need these '-C <path>' options, because __gitdir() already took those options into account. It would not hurt them, either, but let's not induce unnecessary code churn. Signed-off-by: SZEDER Gábor <szeder.dev@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

And if that output is a relative path, then it is relative to the directory where any 'git -C <path>' options might have led us. This doesn't matter at all for regular scripts, because the git wrapper automatically takes care of changing directories according to the '-C <path>' options, and the scripts can then simply follow any path returned by 'git rev-parse --git-dir', even if it's a relative path. Our Bash completion script, however, is unique in that it must run directly in the user's interactive shell environment. This means that it's not executed through the git wrapper and would have to take care of any '-C <path> options on its own, and it can't just change directories as it pleases. Consequently, adding support for taking any '-C <path>' options on the command line into account during completion turned out to be considerably more difficult, error prone and required more subshells and git processes when it had to cope with a relative path to the .git directory. Help this rather special use case and teach 'git rev-parse' a new '--absolute-git-dir' option which always outputs a canonicalized absolute path to the .git directory, regardless of whether the path is discovered automatically or is specified via $GIT_DIR or 'git --git-dir=<path>'.

As it is not aware of 'git -C's mandatory path argument, if the '-C <path>' option is present, 'path' will be the first such word and it will be mistaken for a git command. This breaks completion in various ways: - If 'path' happens to match one of the commands supported by the completion script, then options of that command will be offered. - If 'path' doesn't match a supported command and doesn't contain any characters not allowed in Bash identifier names, then the completion script does basically nothing and Bash in turn falls back to filename completion for all subsequent words. - Otherwise, if 'path' does contain such an unallowed character, then it leads to a more or less ugly error message in the middle of the command line. The standard '/' directory separator is such a character, and it happens to trigger one of the uglier errors: $ git -C some/path <TAB>sh.exe": declare: `_git_some/path': not a valid identifier error: invalid key: alias.some/path Fix this by skipping 'git -C's mandatory path argument while iterating over the words on the command line. Extend the relevant test with this case and, while at it, with cases that needed similar treatment in the past ('--git-dir', '-c', '--work-tree' and '--namespace'). Additionally, silence the standard error of the 'declare' builtins looking for the completion function associated with the git command and of the 'git config' query for the aliased command. So if git ever learns a new option with a mandatory argument in the future, then, though the completion script will again misbehave, at least the command line will not be utterly disrupted by those error messages.

However, it inadvertently made impossible to complete short refs from a remote given as a URL, e.g. 'git fetch git://server.com/repo.git <TAB>', because there is, of course, no such thing as 'refs/remotes/git://server.com/repo.git'. Since the previous commit we tell apart configured remotes, i.e. those that can have a hierarchy under 'refs/remotes/', from others that don't, including remotes given as URL, so we know when we can't use the faster 'git for-each-ref'-based approach. Resurrect the old, pre-e832f5c09680 'git ls-remote'-based code for the latter case to support listing short refs from remotes given as a URL. The code is slightly updated from the original to - take into account the path to the repository given on the command line (if any), and - omit 'ORIG_HEAD' from the query, as 'git ls-remote' will never list it anyway. When the remote given to __git_refs() doesn't exist, then it will be handled by this resurrected 'git ls-remote' query. This code path doesn't list 'HEAD' unconditionally, which has the nice side effect of fixing two more expected test failures.
