* Merge branch 'rs/strbuf-addftime-zZ'Junio C Hamano2017-06-221-1/+2
|\ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As there is no portable way to pass timezone information to strftime, some output format from "git log" and friends are impossible to produce. Teach our own strbuf_addftime to replace %z and %Z with caller-supplied values to help working around this. * rs/strbuf-addftime-zZ: date: use localtime() for "-local" time formats t0006: check --date=format zone offsets strbuf: let strbuf_addftime handle %z and %Z itself

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is no portable way to pass timezone information to strftime. Add parameters for timezone offset and name to strbuf_addftime and let it handle the timezone-related format specifiers %z and %Z internally. Callers can opt out for %Z by passing NULL as timezone name. %z is always handled internally -- this helps on Windows, where strftime would expand it to a timezone name (same as %Z), in violation of POSIX. Modifiers are not handled, e.g. %Ez is still passed to strftime. Use an empty string as timezone name in show_date (the only current caller) for now because we only have the timezone offset in non-local mode. POSIX allows %Z to resolve to an empty string in case of missing information.

* | log: add -P as a synonym for --perl-regexpÆvar Arnfjörð Bjarmason2017-05-261-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a short -P option as a synonym for the longer --perl-regexp, for consistency with the options the corresponding grep invocations accept. This was intentionally omitted in commit 727b6fc3ed ("log --grep: accept --basic-regexp and --perl-regexp", 2012-10-03) for unspecified future use. Make it consistent with "grep" rather than to keep it open for future use, and to avoid the confusion of -P meaning different things for grep & log, as is the case with the -G option. As noted in the aforementioned commit the --basic-regexp option can't have a corresponding -G argument, as the log command already uses that for -G<regex>.

* | grep & rev-list doc: stop promising libpcre for --perl-regexpÆvar Arnfjörð Bjarmason2017-05-211-2/+6
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Stop promising in our grep & rev-list options documentation that we're always going to be using libpcre when given the --perl-regexp option. Instead talk about using "Perl-compatible regular expressions" and using these types of patterns using "a compile-time dependency". Saying "libpcre" means that we're talking about libpcre.so, which is always going to be v1. This change is part of an ongoing saga to add support for libpcre2, which comes with PCRE v2. In the future we might use some completely unrelated library to provide perl-compatible regular expression support. By wording the documentation differently and not promising any specific version of PCRE or even PCRE at all we have more wiggle room to change the implementation.

But one may not care about the timezone and just want the epoch timestamp by itself. It's not hard to parse the two apart, but if you are using a pretty-print format, you may want git to show the "finished" form that the user will see. We can accomodate this by adding a new date format, "unix", which is basically "raw" without the timezone. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

The timestamp is not _in_ that zone, but it is extra information about the time (by default, the zone the author was in). The documentation claims that "raw-local" does not work. It does, but the end result is rather subtle. Let's describe it in better detail, and test to make sure it works (namely, the epoch time doesn't change, but the zone does). While we are rewording the documentation in this area, let's not use the phrase "does not work" for the remaining option, "--date=relative". It's vague; do we accept it or not? We do accept it, but it has no effect (which is a reasonable outcome). We should also refer to the option not as "--relative" (which is the historical synonym, and does not take "-local" at all), but as "--date=relative".

The "HEAD" part is really the refname. By saying "commit", a reader may misunderstand that to mean something related to the specific commit we are showing, not the ref whose reflog we are traversing. While we're here, let's also switch these instances to use literal backticks, as our style guide recommends. As a bonus, that lets us drop some asciidoc quoting.

In theory you can monitor its progress by the output you get to stdout, but this isn't always easy. Some operations, like "--count", don't make any output until the end. And some callers, like check_everything_connected(), are using it just for the error-checking of the traversal, and throw away stdout entirely. This patch adds a "--progress" option which can be used to give some eye-candy for a user waiting for a long traversal. This is just a rev-list option and not a regular traversal option, because it needs cooperation from the callbacks in builtin/rev-list.c to do the actual count.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Most of our "--date" modes are about the format of the date: which items we show and in what order. But "--date=local" is a bit of an oddball. It means "show the date in the normal format, but using the local timezone". The timezone we use is orthogonal to the actual format, and there is no reason we could not have "localized iso8601", etc. This patch adds a "local" boolean field to "struct date_mode", and drops the DATE_LOCAL element from the date_mode_type enum (it's now just DATE_NORMAL plus local=1). The new feature is accessible to users by adding "-local" to any date mode (e.g., "iso-local"), and we retain "local" as an alias for "default-local" for backwards compatibility.

However, aggressively marking edges can negatively affect performance on large non-shallow repositories with lots of refs. Teach pack-objects a --shallow option to indicate that we're pushing from or fetching into a shallow repository. Use --objects-edge-aggressive only for shallow repositories and otherwise use --objects-edge, which performs better in the general case.

This change, and the subsequent change to make this conditional on --objects-edge, are used by --thin to make much smaller packs for shallow clones. Unfortunately, they cause a significant performance regression when pushing non-shallow clones with lots of refs (23.322 seconds vs. 4.785 seconds with 22400 refs). Add an option to git rev-list, --objects-edge-aggressive, that preserves this more aggressive behavior, while leaving --objects-edge to provide more performant behavior.

* | | pretty: provide a strict ISO 8601 date formatbb/date-iso-strictBeat Bolli2014-08-291-2/+11
|/ / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Git's "ISO" date format does not really conform to the ISO 8601 standard due to small differences, and it cannot be parsed by ISO 8601-only parsers, e.g. those of XML toolchains. The output from "--date=iso" deviates from ISO 8601 in these ways: - a space instead of the `T` date/time delimiter - a space between time and time zone - no colon between hours and minutes of the time zone Add a strict ISO 8601 date format for displaying committer and author dates. Use the '%aI' and '%cI' format specifiers and add '--date=iso-strict' or '--date=iso8601-strict' date format names. See http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/255879 and http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/52414/focus=52585 for discussion.

| * | rev-list: add bitmap mode to speed up object listsVicent Marti2013-12-301-0/+8

Calling `git rev-list --objects --use-bitmap-index [committish]` will perform an object iteration based on a bitmap result instead of actually walking the object graph. These are some example timings for `torvalds/linux` (warm cache, best-of-five): $ time git rev-list --objects master > /dev/null real 0m34.191s user 0m33.904s sys 0m0.268s $ time git rev-list --objects --use-bitmap-index master > /dev/null real 0m1.041s user 0m0.976s sys 0m0.064s Likewise, using `git rev-list --count --use-bitmap-index` will speed up the counting operation by building the resulting bitmap and performing a fast popcount (number of bits set on the bitmap) on the result. Here are some sample timings of different ways to count commits in `torvalds/linux`: $ time git rev-list master | wc -l 399882 real 0m6.524s user 0m6.060s sys 0m3.284s $ time git rev-list --count master 399882 real 0m4.318s user 0m4.236s sys 0m0.076s $ time git rev-list --use-bitmap-index --count master 399882 real 0m0.217s user 0m0.176s sys 0m0.040s This also respects negative refs, so you can use it to count a slice of history: $ time git rev-list --count v3.0..master 144843 real 0m1.971s user 0m1.932s sys 0m0.036s $ time git rev-list --use-bitmap-index --count v3.0..master real 0m0.280s user 0m0.220s sys 0m0.056s Though note that the closer the endpoints, the less it helps. In the traversal case, we have fewer commits to cross, so we take less time. But the bitmap time is dominated by generating the pack revindex, which is constant with respect to the refs given. Note that you cannot yet get a fast --left-right count of a symmetric difference (e.g., "--count --left-right master...topic"). The slow part of that walk actually happens during the merge-base determination when we parse "master...topic". Even though a count does not actually need to know the real merge base (it only needs to take the symmetric difference of the bitmaps), the revision code would require some refactoring to handle this case. Additionally, a `--test-bitmap` flag has been added that will perform the same rev-list manually (i.e. using a normal revwalk) and using bitmaps, and verify that the results are the same. This can be used to exercise the bitmap code, and also to verify that the contents of the .bitmap file are sane.
