* filter-branch: use printf instead of echo -eml/filter-branch-portability-fixMichele Locati2018-03-191-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In order to echo a tab character, it's better to use printf instead of "echo -e", because it's more portable (for instance, "echo -e" doesn't work as expected on a Mac). This solves the "fatal: Not a valid object name" error in git-filter-branch when using the --state-branch option. Furthermore, let's switch from "/bin/echo" to just "echo", so that the built-in echo command is used where available.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The illustrated history used to explain the `--fork-point` mode named three keypoint commits B3, B2 and B1 from the oldest to the newest, which was hard to read. Relabel them to B0, B1, B2. Also illustrate the history after the rebase using the `--fork-point` facility was made. The text already mentions use of reflog, but the description is not clear what benefit we are trying to gain by using reflog. Clarify that it is to find the commits that were known to be at the tip of the remote-tracking branch. This in turn necessitates users to know the ramifications of the underlying assumptions, namely, expiry of reflog entries will make it impossible to determine which commits were at the tip of the remote-tracking branches and we fail when in doubt (instead of giving a random and incorrect result without even warning). Another limitation is that it won't be useful if you did not fork from the tip of a remote-tracking branch but from in the middle. Describe them. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In 29ff1f8f74 (t: lib-gpg: flush gpg agent on startup, 2017-07-20), a call to gpgconf was added to kill the gpg-agent. The intention was to ignore all output from the call, but the order of the redirection needs to be switched to ensure that both stdout and stderr are redirected to /dev/null. Without this, gpgconf from gnupg-2.0 releases would output 'gpgconf: invalid option "--kill"' each time it was called.

Note that since unpack_trees() does path-in-the-way checks already, the only way for there to be a directory in the way at this point in the code, is if there is some kind of D/F conflict in the merge. For a submodule addition on HEAD's side of history, the submodule would have already been present. This means that we do expect there to be a directory present but should not consider it to be "in the way"; instead, it's the expected submodule. So, when there's a submodule addition from HEAD's side, don't bother checking the working copy for a directory in the way.

Currently, people who want to cite a particular section tend to either refer to it by name and let the interested party search through the document to find it, or link to a given line number on GitHub and hope the file doesn't change. Instead, convert the document to AsciiDoc. Build it as part of the technical documentation, since it is likely of interest to the same group of people. Provide stable links to the sections which outside parties are likely to want to link to. Make some minor structural changes to organize it so that it can be formatted sanely. Since the makefile needs a .txt extension in order to build with the rest of the documentation, simply copy the file. Ignore the temporary file so it doesn't get checked in accidentally, and remove it as part of the clean process. Do this instead of renaming the file so that people who have already linked to the documentation (who we're trying to help) don't find their links broken. Avoid symlinking since Windows will not like that. This allows us to render the document as part of the website for the benefit of others who wish to link to it as well as providing a more nicely formatted display for our community and potential contributors.

Implement this optimization as follows: * Add a function `is_packed_transaction_needed()`, which checks whether a given packed-refs transaction actually needs to be carried out (i.e., it returns false if the transaction obviously wouldn't have any effect). This function must be called while holding the `packed-refs` lock to avoid races. * Change `files_transaction_prepare()` to check whether the packed-refs transaction is actually needed. If not, squelch it, but continue holding the `packed-refs` lock until the end of the transaction to avoid races. This fixes a mild regression caused by dc39e09942 (files_ref_store: use a transaction to update packed refs, 2017-09-08). Before that commit, unnecessary rewrites of `packed-refs` were suppressed by `repack_without_refs()`. But the transaction-based writing introduced by that commit didn't perform that optimization. Note that the pre-dc39e09942 code still had to *read* the whole `packed-refs` file to determine that the rewrite could be skipped, so the performance for the cases that the write could be elided was `O(N)` in the number of packed references both before and after dc39e09942. But after that commit the constant factor increased. This commit reimplements the optimization of eliding unnecessary `packed-refs` rewrites. That, plus the fact that since cfa2e29c34 (packed_ref_store: get rid of the `ref_cache` entirely, 2017-03-17) we don't necessarily have to read the whole `packed-refs` file at all, means that deletes of one or a few loose references can now be done with `O(n lg N)` effort, where `n` is the number of loose references being deleted and `N` is the total number of packed references. This commit fixes two tests in t1409. Signed-off-by: Michael Haggerty <mhagger@alum.mit.edu> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

Six of them do not use the original list `foo` again, and actually, all six of those end up leaking it. Introduce and use `reduce_heads_replace(&foo)` as a leak-free version of `foo = reduce_heads(foo)` to fix several of these. Fix the remaining leaks using `free_commit_list()`. While we're here, document `reduce_heads()` and mark it as `extern`. Signed-off-by: Martin Ågren <martin.agren@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

As a consequence, we lose the original pointer and eventually leak the list. Rewrite the loops so that we keep the original pointers, then call `free_commit_list()`. Various alternatives were considered: 1) Use `UNLEAK(result)` before the loop. Simple change, but not very pretty. These would definitely be new lows among our usages of UNLEAK. 2) Use `pop_commit()` when looping. Slightly less simple change, but it feels slightly preferable to first display the list, then free it. 3) As in this patch, but with `UNLEAK()` instead of freeing. We'd still go through all the trouble of refactoring the loop, and because it's not super-obvious that we're about to exit, let's just free the lists -- it probably doesn't affect the runtime much. In `handle_independent()` we can drop `result` while we're here and reuse the `revs`-variable instead. That matches several other users of `reduce_heads()`. The memory-leak that this hides will be addressed in the next commit. Signed-off-by: Martin Ågren <martin.agren@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

We then set `p->next` to NULL, but as we do so, `p` is already pointing one beyond item number `cnt`. Indeed, we check whether `p` is NULL before dereferencing it. This only matters if there are TREESAME-commits. Since they should be skipped, they are not included in `cnt` and we will hit the situation where we set `p->next` to NULL. As a result, the list will be one longer than it should be. The last commit in the list will be one which occurs earlier, or which shouldn't be included. Do not update `p` the very last round in the loop. This ensures that after the loop, `p->next` points to the remainder of the list, and we can set it to NULL. While we're here, free that remainder to fix a memory leak. Signed-off-by: Martin Ågren <martin.agren@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

This makes it impossible to deal with empty strings. It accesses characters before the start of empty lines. It can also access characters after the end when checking for trailing whitespace in the main loop. Avoid that by using pointers to the first character and the one *after* the last one. This is well-defined as long as the latter is not dereferenced. Basically rewrite the function based on that premise; it becomes much simpler as a result. There is no need to check for leading whitespace outside of the main loop anymore.
