|\ \ | |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The latter topic changes the definition of how refspec's src and dst side is stored in-core; it used to be that the asterisk for pattern was omitted, but now it is included. The former topic handcrafts an old style refspec to feed the refspec matching machinery that lacks the asterisk and triggers an error. This resolves the semantic clash between the two topics early before they need to be merged to integration branches. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
| * refactor find_ref_by_name() to accept const listJeff King2009-02-261-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since it doesn't actually touch its argument, this makes sense. However, we still want to return a non-const version (which requires a cast) so that this: struct ref *a, *b; a = find_ref_by_name(b); works. Unfortunately, you can also silently strip the const from a variable: struct ref *a; const struct ref *b; a = find_ref_by_name(b); This is a classic C const problem because there is no way to say "return the type with the same constness that was passed to us"; we provide the same semantics as standard library functions like strchr.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If git attempts to delete a ref, but the unlink of the ref file fails, we print a message to stderr. This is usually a good thing, but if the error is ENOENT, then it indicates that the ref has _already_ been deleted. And since that's our goal, it doesn't make sense to complain to the user. This harmonizes the error reporting behavior for the unpacked and packed cases; the packed case already printed nothing on ENOENT, but the unpacked printed unconditionally. Additionally, send-pack would, when deleting the tracking ref corresponding to a remote delete, print "Failed to delete" on any failure. This can be a misleading message, since we actually _did_ delete at the remote side, but we failed to delete locally. Rather than make the message more precise, let's just eliminate it entirely; the delete_ref routine already takes care of printing out a much more specific message about what went wrong.

* | avoid null SHA1 in oldest reflogJeff King2008-07-081-0/+4
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the user specifies a ref by a reflog entry older than one we have (e.g., "HEAD@{20 years ago"}), we issue a warning and give them the "from" value of the oldest reflog entry. That is, we say "we don't know what happened before this entry, but before this we know we had some particular SHA1". However, the oldest reflog entry is often a creation event such as clone or branch creation. In this case, the entry claims that the ref went from "00000..." (the null sha1) to the new value, and the reflog lookup returns the null sha1. While this is technically correct (the entry tells us that the ref didn't exist at the specified time) it is not terribly useful to the end user. What they probably want instead is "the oldest useful sha1 that this ref ever had". This patch changes the behavior such that if the oldest ref would return the null sha1, it instead returns the first value the ref ever had. We never discovered this problem in the test scripts because we created "fake" reflogs that had only a specified segment of history. This patch updates the tests with a creation event at the beginning of history. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Acked-by: Shawn O.

| * Optimize peel_ref for the current ref of a for_each_ref callbackShawn O. Pearce2008-02-241-5/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently the only caller of peel_ref is show-ref, which is using this function to show the peeled tag information if it is available from an existing packed-refs file. The call happens during the for_each_ref callback function, so we have the proper struct ref_list already on the call stack but it is not easily available to return the peeled information to the caller. We now save the current struct ref_list item before calling back into the callback function so that future calls to peel_ref from within the callback function can quickly access the current ref. Doing so will save us an lstat() per ref processed as we no longer have to check the filesystem to see if the ref exists as a loose file or is packed. This current ref caching also saves a linear scan of the cached packed refs list. As a micro-optimization we test the address of the passed ref name against the current_ref->name before we go into the much more costly strcmp(). Nearly any caller of peel_ref will be passing us the same string do_for_each_ref passed them, which is current_ref->name. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This makes write_ref_sha1() more careful: it actually checks the SHA1 of the ref it is updating, and refuses to update a ref with an object that it cannot find. Perhaps more importantly, it also refuses to update a branch head with a non-commit object. I don't quite know *how* the stable series maintainers were able to corrupt their repository to have a HEAD that pointed to a tag rather than a commit object, but they did. Which results in a totally broken repository that cannot be cloned or committed on. So make it harder for people to shoot themselves in the foot like that. The test t1400-update-ref.sh is fixed at the same time, as it assumed that the commands involved in the particular test would not care about corrupted repositories whose refs point at nonexistant bogus objects.

* Re-fix "builtin-commit: fix --signoff"Junio C Hamano2007-12-091-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | An earlier fix to the said commit was incomplete; it mixed up the meaning of the flag parameter passed to the internal fmt_ident() function, so this corrects it. git_author_info() and git_committer_info() can be told to issue a warning when no usable user information is found, and optionally can be told to error out. Operations that actually use the information to record a new commit or a tag will still error out, but the caller to leave reflog record will just silently use bogus user information. Not warning on misconfigured user information while writing a reflog entry is somewhat debatable, but it is probably nicer to the users to silently let it pass, because the only information you are losing is who checked out the branch. * git_author_info() and git_committer_info() used to take 1 (positive int) to error out with a warning on misconfiguration; this is now signalled with a symbolic constant IDENT_ERROR_ON_NO_NAME. * These functions used to take -1 (negative int) to warn but continue; this is now signalled with a symbolic constant IDENT_WARN_ON_NO_NAME. * fmt_ident() function implements the above error reporting behaviour common to git_author_info() and git_committer_info(). A symbolic constant IDENT_NO_DATE can be or'ed in to the flag parameter to make it return only the "Name <email@address.xz>". * fmt_name() is a thin wrapper around fmt_ident() that always passes IDENT_ERROR_ON_NO_NAME and IDENT_NO_DATE.

The old rules are: 1) match full refname if it starts with "refs/" or matches "HEAD" 2) verify that full refname starts with "refs/" 3) match abbreviated name in "refs/" if it starts with "heads/", "tags/", or "remotes/". 4) match abbreviated name in "refs/heads/" This is replaced by the new rules a) match full refname b) match abbreviated name prefixed with "refs/" c) match abbreviated name prefixed with "refs/heads/" The details of the new rules are different from the old rules. We no longer verify that the full refname starts with "refs/". The new rule (a) matches any full string. The old rules (1) and (2) were stricter. Now, the caller is responsible for using sensible full refnames. This should be the case for the current code. The new rule (b) is less strict than old rule (3). The new rule accepts abbreviated names that start with a non-standard prefix below "refs/". Despite this modifications the new rules should handle all cases as expected. Two tests are added to verify that fetch does not resolve short tags or HEAD in remotes. We may even think about loosening the rules a bit more and unify them with the rev-parse rules. This would be done by replacing ref_ref_fetch_rules with ref_ref_parse_rules. Note, the two new test would break.
