* Make git_dir a path relative to work_tree in setup_work_tree()Linus Torvalds2008-06-191-0/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Once we find the absolute paths for git_dir and work_tree, we can make git_dir a relative path since we know pwd will be work_tree. This should save the kernel some time traversing the path to work_tree all the time if git_dir is inside work_tree. Daniel's patch didn't apply for me as-is, so I recreated it with some differences, and here are the numbers from ten runs each. There is some IO for me - probably due to more-or-less random flushing of the journal - so the variation is bigger than I'd like, but whatever: Before: real 0m8.135s real 0m7.933s real 0m8.080s real 0m7.954s real 0m7.949s real 0m8.112s real 0m7.934s real 0m8.059s real 0m7.979s real 0m8.038s After: real 0m7.685s real 0m7.968s real 0m7.703s real 0m7.850s real 0m7.995s real 0m7.817s real 0m7.963s real 0m7.955s real 0m7.848s real 0m7.969s Now, going by "best of ten" (on the assumption that the longer numbers are all due to IO), I'm saying a 7.933s -> 7.685s reduction, and it does seem to be outside of the noise (ie the "after" case never broke 8s, while the "before" case did so half the time). So looks like about 3% to me. Doing it for a slightly smaller test-case (just the "arch" subdirectory) gets more stable numbers probably due to not filling the journal with metadata updates, so we have: Before: real 0m1.633s real 0m1.633s real 0m1.633s real 0m1.632s real 0m1.632s real 0m1.630s real 0m1.634s real 0m1.631s real 0m1.632s real 0m1.632s After: real 0m1.610s real 0m1.609s real 0m1.610s real 0m1.608s real 0m1.607s real 0m1.610s real 0m1.609s real 0m1.611s real 0m1.608s real 0m1.611s where I'ld just take the averages and say 1.632 vs 1.610, which is just over 1% peformance improvement. So it's not in the noise, but it's not as big as I initially thought and measured. (That said, it obviously depends on how deep the working directory path is too, and whether it is behind NFS or something else that might need to cause more work to look up).

* Make core.sharedRepository more genericHeikki Orsila2008-04-161-17/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | git init --shared=0xxx, where '0xxx' is an octal number, will create a repository with file modes set to '0xxx'. Users with a safe umask value (0077) can use this option to force file modes. For example, '0640' is a group-readable but not group-writable regardless of user's umask value. Values compatible with old Git versions are written as they were before, for compatibility reasons. That is, "1" for "group" and "2" for "everybody". "git config core.sharedRepository 0xxx" is also handled. Signed-off-by: Heikki Orsila <heikki.orsila@iki.fi> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

* General const correctness fixesShawn O. Pearce2007-03-071-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We shouldn't attempt to assign constant strings into char*, as the string is not writable at runtime. Likewise we should always be treating unsigned values as unsigned values, not as signed values. Most of these are very straightforward. The only exception is the (unnecessary) xstrdup/free in builtin-branch.c for the detached head case. Since this is a user-level interactive type program and that particular code path is executed no more than once, I feel that the extra xstrdup call is well worth the easy elimination of this warning.

| * Detached HEAD (experimental)Junio C Hamano2007-01-081-8/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This allows "git checkout v1.4.3" to dissociate the HEAD of repository from any branch. After this point, "git branch" starts reporting that you are not on any branch. You can go back to an existing branch by saying "git checkout master", for example. This is still experimental. While I think it makes sense to allow commits on top of detached HEAD, it is rather dangerous unless you are careful in the current form. Next "git checkout master" will obviously lose what you have done, so we might want to require "git checkout -f" out of a detached HEAD if we find that the HEAD commit is not an ancestor of any other branches. There is no such safety valve implemented right now. On the other hand, the reason the user did not start the ad-hoc work on a new branch with "git checkout -b" was probably because the work was of a throw-away nature, so the convenience of not having that safety valve might be even better. The user, after accumulating some commits on top of a detached HEAD, can always create a new branch with "git checkout -b" not to lose useful work done while the HEAD was detached. We'll see.

* | short i/o: fix calls to read to use xread or read_in_fullAndy Whitcroft2007-01-081-1/+1
|/ | | | | | | | | | | We have a number of badly checked read() calls. Often we are expecting read() to read exactly the size we requested or fail, this fails to handle interrupts or short reads.

* simplify inclusion of system header files.Junio C Hamano2006-12-201-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a mechanical clean-up of the way *.c files include system header files. (1) sources under compat/, platform sha-1 implementations, and xdelta code are exempt from the following rules; (2) the first #include must be "git-compat-util.h" or one of our own header file that includes it first (e.g. config.h, builtin.h, pkt-line.h); (3) system headers that are included in "git-compat-util.h" need not be included in individual C source files. (4) "git-compat-util.h" does not have to include subsystem specific header files (e.g. expat.h). Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

* Allow multiple "git_path()" usesLinus Torvalds2006-09-161-1/+9

* | shared repository: optionally allow reading to "others".Junio C Hamano2006-06-101-2/+12
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This enhances core.sharedrepository to have additionally specify that read and exec permissions to be given to others as well. It is useful when serving a repository via gitweb and git-daemon that runs as a user outside the project group. The configuration item can take the following values: [core] sharedrepository ; the same as "group" sharedrepository = true ; ditto sharedrepository = 1 ; ditto sharedrepository = group ; allow rwx to group sharedrepository = all ; allow rwx to group, allow rx to other sharedrepository = umask ; not shared - use umask It also extends "git init-db" to take "--shared=all" and friends from the command line.

* shared repository - add a few missing calls to adjust_shared_perm().Junio C Hamano2006-06-091-0/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There were a few calls to adjust_shared_perm() that were missing: - init-db creates refs, refs/heads, and refs/tags before reading from templates that could specify sharedrepository in the config file; - updating config file created it under user's umask without adjusting; - updating refs created it under user's umask without adjusting; - switching branches created .git/HEAD under user's umask without adjusting. This moves adjust_shared_perm() from sha1_file.c to path.c, since a few SIMPLE_PROGRAM need to call repository configuration functions which in turn need to call adjust_shared_perm(). sha1_file.c needs to link with SHA1 computation library which is usually not linked to SIMPLE_PROGRAM.

* [PATCH] daemon.c and path.enter_repo(): revamp path validation.Junio C Hamano2005-12-031-54/+99
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The whitelist of git-daemon is checked against return value from enter_repo(), and enter_repo() used to return the value obtained from getcwd() to avoid directory aliasing issues as discussed earier (mid October 2005). Unfortunately, it did not go well as we hoped. For example, /pub on a kernel.org public machine is a symlink to its real mountpoint, and it is understandable that the administrator does not want to adjust the whitelist every time /pub needs to point at a different partition for storage allcation or whatever reasons. Being able to keep using /pub/scm as the whitelist is a desirable property. So this version of enter_repo() reports what it used to chdir() and validate, but does not use getcwd() to canonicalize the directory name. When it sees a user relative path ~user/path, it internally resolves it to try chdir() there, but it still reports ~user/path (possibly after appending .git if allowed to do so, in which case it would report ~user/path.git). What this means is that if a whitelist wants to allow a user relative path, it needs to say "~" (for all users) or list user home directories like "~alice" "~bob". And no, you cannot say /home if the advertised way to access user home directories are ~alice,~bob, etc. The whole point of this is to avoid unnecessary aliasing issues. Anyway, because of this, daemon needs to do a bit more work to guard itself. Namely, it needs to make sure that the accessor does not try to exploit its leading path match rule by inserting /../ in the middle or hanging /.. at the end. I resurrected the belts and suspender paranoia code HPA did for this purpose. This check cannot be done in the enter_repo() unconditionally, because there are valid callers of enter_repo() that want to honor /../; authorized users coming over ssh to run send-pack and fetch-pack should be allowed to do so.

| | | | | | | | | We wanted --strict to mean "do not DWIM", but the code required to see absolute path. daemon does its own path verification and chdirs to the verified repository, so enter_repo() called from upload-pack will always enter ".".

This moves validate_symref() from refs.c to path.c, because we need to link path.c with git-daemon for its "enter_repo()", but we do not want to link the daemon with the rest of git libraries and its requirements.
