Subversion represents symlinks as ordinary files with content starting
with "link " and the svn:special property set to "*". Thus a file can
switch between being a symlink and a non-symlink simply by toggling
its svn:special property, and new checkouts will automatically write a
file of the appropriate type. Likewise, in subversion 1.6 and older,
running "svn update" would notice changes in filetype and update the
working copy appropriately.
Starting in subversion 1.7 (issue 4091), changes to the svn:special
property trip an assertion instead:
$ svn up svn-tree
Updating 'svn-tree':
svn: E235000: In file 'subversion/libsvn_wc/update_editor.c' \
line 1583: assertion failed (action == svn_wc_conflict_action_edit \
|| action == svn_wc_conflict_action_delete || action == \
svn_wc_conflict_action_replace)
Revisions prepared with ordinary svn commands ("svn add" and not "svn
propset") don't trip this because they represent these filetype
changes using a replace operation, which is approximately equivalent
to removal followed by adding a new file and works fine. Follow suit.
Noticed using t9100. After this change, git-svn's file-to-symlink
changes are sent in a format that modern "svn update" can handle and
tests t9100.11-13 pass again.

Subversion's svn_dirent_canonicalize() and svn_path_canonicalize()
APIs keep a leading slash in the return value if one was present on
the argument, which can be useful since it allows relative and
absolute paths to be distinguished.
When git-svn's canonicalize_path() learned to use these functions if
available, its semantics changed in the corresponding way. Some new
callers rely on the leading slash --- for example, if the slash is
stripped out then _canonicalize_url_ourselves() will transform
"proto://host/path/to/resource" to "proto://hostpath/to/resource".
Unfortunately the fallback _canonicalize_path_ourselves(), used when
the appropriate SVN APIs are not usable, still follows the old
semantics, so if that code path is exercised then it breaks. Fix it
to follow the new convention.
Noticed by forcing the fallback on and running tests. Without this
patch, t9101.4 fails:

When using the {word,[...]} style of configuration for tags and branches,
it appears the intent is to only match whole path parts, since the words
in the {} pattern are meta-character quoted.
When the pattern word appears in the beginning or middle of the url,
it's matched completely, since the left side, pattern, and (non-empty)
right side are joined together with path separators.
However, when the pattern word appears at the end of the URL, the
right side is an empty pattern, and the resulting regex matches
more than just the specified pattern.
For example, if you specify something along the lines of
branches = branches/project/{release_1,release_2}
and your repository also contains "branches/project/release_1_2", you
will also get the release_1_2 branch. By restricting the match regex
with anchors, this is avoided.

Since v1.7.0-rc2~11 (git-svn: persistent memoization, 2010-01-30),
git-svn has maintained some private per-repository caches in
.git/svn/.caches to avoid refetching and recalculating some
mergeinfo-related information with every 'git svn fetch'.
This memoization can cause problems, e.g consider the following case:
SVN repo:
... - a - b - c - m <- trunk
\ /
d - e <- branch1
The Git import of the above repo is at commit 'a' and doesn't know about
the branch1. In case of an 'git svn rebase', only the trunk of the
SVN repo is imported. During the creation of the git commit 'm', git svn
uses the svn:mergeinfo property and tries to find the corresponding git
commit 'e' to create 'm' with 'c' and 'e' as parents. But git svn rebase
only imports the current branch so commit 'e' is not imported.
Therefore git svn fails to create commit 'm' as a merge commit, because one
of its parents is not known to git. The imported history looks like this:
... - a - b - c - m <- trunk
A later 'git svn fetch' to import all branches can't rewrite the commit 'm'
to add 'e' as a parent and to make it a real git merge commit, because it
was already imported.
That's why the imported history misses the merge and looks like this:
... - a - b - c - m <- trunk
\
d - e <- branch1
Right now the only known workaround for importing 'm' as a merge is to
force reimporting 'm' again from SVN, e.g. via
$ git svn reset --revision $(git find-rev $c)
$ git svn fetch
Sadly, this is where the behavior has regressed: git svn reset doesn't
invalidate the old mergeinfo cache, which is no longer valid for the
reimport, which leads to 'm' beeing imprted with only 'c' as parent.
As solution to this problem, this commit invalidates the mergeinfo cache
to force correct recalculation of the parents.
During development of this patch, several ways for invalidating the cache
where considered. One of them is to use Memoize::flush_cache, which will
call the CLEAR method on the underlying Memoize persistency implementation.
Sadly, neither Memoize::Storable nor the newer Memoize::YAML module
introduced in 68f532f4ba could optionally be used implement the
CLEAR method, so this is not an option.
Reseting the internal hash used to store the memoized values has the same
problem, because it calls the non-existing CLEAR method of the
underlying persistency layer, too.
Considering this and taking into account the different implementations
of the memoization modules, where Memoize::Storable is not in our control,
implementing the missing CLEAR method is not an option, at least not if
Memoize::Storable is still used.
Therefore the easiest solution to clear the cache is to delete the files
on disk in 'git svn reset'. Normally, deleting the files behind the back
of the memoization module would be problematic, because the in-memory
representation would still exist and contain wrong data. Fortunately, the
memoization is active in memory only for a small portion of the code.
Invalidating the cache by deleting the files on disk if it isn't active
should be safe.

1.6 lets us chase down some problems caused by more effective canonicalization
without having to deal with all the other 1.7 issues on top of that.
* Remote URLs have to be canonicalized otherwise Git::SVN->find_existing_remote

Since v1.7.0-rc2~11 (git-svn: persistent memoization, 2010-01-30),
git-svn has maintained some private per-repository caches in
.git/svn/.caches to avoid refetching and recalculating some
mergeinfo-related information with every "git svn fetch".
These caches use the 'nstore' format from the perl core module
Storable, which can be read and written quickly and was designed for
transfer over the wire (the 'n' stands for 'network'). This format is
endianness-independent and independent of floating-point
representation.
Unfortunately the format is *not* independent of the perl version ---
new perl versions will write files that very old perl cannot read.
Worse, the format is not independent of the size of a perl integer.
So if you toggle perl's use64bitint compile-time option, then using
'git svn fetch' on your old repositories produces errors like this:
Byte order is not compatible at ../../lib/Storable.pm (autosplit
into ../../lib/auto/Storable/_retrieve.al) line 380, at
/usr/share/perl/5.12/Memoize/Storable.pm line 21
That is, upgrading perl to a version that uses use64bitint for the
first time makes git-svn suddenly refuse to fetch in existing
repositories. Removing .git/svn/.caches lets git-svn recover.
It's time to switch to a platform independent serializer backend with
better compatibility guarantees. This patch uses YAML::Any.
Other choices were considered:
- thawing data from Data::Dumper involves "eval". Doing that without
creating a security risk is fussy.
- the JSON API works on scalars in memory and doesn't provide a
standard way to serialize straight to disk.
YAML::Any is reasonably fast and has a pleasant API. In most
backends, LoadFile() reads the entire file into a scalar anyway and
converts it as a second step, but having an interface that allows the
deserialization to happen on the fly without a temporary is still a
comfort.
YAML::Any is not a core perl module, so we take care to use it when
and only when it is available. Installations without that module
should fall back to using Storable with all its quirks, keeping their
cache files in
.git/svn/.caches/*.db
Installations with YAML peacefully coexist by keeping a separate set
of cache files in
.git/svn/.caches/*.yaml.
In most cases, switching between is a one-time thing, so it doesn't
seem worth the complication to migrate existing caches.
The upshot: after this patch, as long as YAML::Any is installed you
can move your git repository between machines with different perl
installations and "git svn fetch" will work fine. If you do not have
YAML::Any, the behavior is unchanged (and in particular does not get
any worse).

Change the skeleton implementation of i18n in Git to one that can show
localized strings to users for our C, Shell and Perl programs using
either GNU libintl or the Solaris gettext implementation.
This new internationalization support is enabled by default. If
gettext isn't available, or if Git is compiled with
NO_GETTEXT=YesPlease, Git falls back on its current behavior of
showing interface messages in English. When using the autoconf script
we'll auto-detect if the gettext libraries are installed and act
appropriately.
This change is somewhat large because as well as adding a C, Shell and
Perl i18n interface we're adding a lot of tests for them, and for
those tests to work we need a skeleton PO file to actually test
translations. A minimal Icelandic translation is included for this
purpose. Icelandic includes multi-byte characters which makes it easy
to test various edge cases, and it's a language I happen to
understand.
The rest of the commit message goes into detail about various
sub-parts of this commit.
= Installation
Gettext .mo files will be installed and looked for in the standard
$(prefix)/share/locale path. GIT_TEXTDOMAINDIR can also be set to
override that, but that's only intended to be used to test Git itself.
= Perl
Perl code that's to be localized should use the new Git::I18n
module. It imports a __ function into the caller's package by default.
Instead of using the high level Locale::TextDomain interface I've
opted to use the low-level (equivalent to the C interface)
Locale::Messages module, which Locale::TextDomain itself uses.
Locale::TextDomain does a lot of redundant work we don't need, and
some of it would potentially introduce bugs. It tries to set the
$TEXTDOMAIN based on package of the caller, and has its own
hardcoded paths where it'll search for messages.
I found it easier just to completely avoid it rather than try to
circumvent its behavior. In any case, this is an issue wholly
internal Git::I18N. Its guts can be changed later if that's deemed
necessary.
See <AANLkTilYD_NyIZMyj9dHtVk-ylVBfvyxpCC7982LWnVd@mail.gmail.com> for
a further elaboration on this topic.
= Shell
Shell code that's to be localized should use the git-sh-i18n
library. It's basically just a wrapper for the system's gettext.sh.
If gettext.sh isn't available we'll fall back on gettext(1) if it's
available. The latter is available without the former on Solaris,
which has its own non-GNU gettext implementation. We also need to
emulate eval_gettext() there.
If neither are present we'll use a dumb printf(1) fall-through
wrapper.
= About libcharset.h and langinfo.h
We use libcharset to query the character set of the current locale if
it's available. I.e. we'll use it instead of nl_langinfo if
HAVE_LIBCHARSET_H is set.
The GNU gettext manual recommends using langinfo.h's
nl_langinfo(CODESET) to acquire the current character set, but on
systems that have libcharset.h's locale_charset() using the latter is
either saner, or the only option on those systems.
GNU and Solaris have a nl_langinfo(CODESET), FreeBSD can use either,
but MinGW and some others need to use libcharset.h's locale_charset()
instead.

When command_input_pipe and command_output_pipe are used as a
method of a Git::repository instance, they eventually call into
_cmd_exec method that sets up the execution environment such as
GIT_DIR, GIT_WORK_TREE environment variables and the current
working directory in the child process that interacts with the
repository.
command_bidi_pipe however didn't expect to be called as such, and
lacked all these set-up. Because of this, a program that did this
did not work as expected:
my $repo = Git->repository(Directory => '/some/where/else');
my ($pid, $in, $out, $ctx) =
$repo->command_bidi_pipe(qw(hash-object -w --stdin-paths));
This patch refactors the _cmd_exec into _setup_git_cmd_env that
sets up the execution environment, and makes _cmd_exec and
command_bidi_pipe to use it.
Note that unlike _cmd_exec that execv's a git command as an
external process, command_bidi_pipe is called from the main line
of control, and the execution environment needs to be restored
after open2() does its magic.

Formalize our dependency on perl 5.8, bumped from 5.6.[12]. We already
used the three-arg form of open() which was introduced in 5.6.1, but
t/t9700/test.pl explicitly depended on 5.6.2.
However git-add--interactive.pl has been failing on the 5.6 line since
it was introduced in v1.5.0-rc0~12^2~2 back in 2006 due to this open
syntax:
sub run_cmd_pipe {
my $fh = undef;
open($fh, '-|', @_) or die;
return <$fh>;
}
Which when executed dies on "Can't use an undefined value as
filehandle reference". Several of our tests also fail on 5.6 (even
more when compiled with NO_PERL_MAKEMAKER=1):
t2016-checkout-patch.sh
t3904-stash-patch.sh
t3701-add-interactive.sh
t7105-reset-patch.sh
t7501-commit.sh
t9700-perl-git.sh
Our code is bitrotting on 5.6 with no-one interested in fixing it, and
pinning us to such an ancient release of Perl is keeping us from using
useful features introduced in the 5.8 release.
The 5.6 series is now over 10 years old, and the 5.6.2 maintenance
release almost 7. 5.8 on the other hand is more than 8 years old.
All the modern Unix-like operating systems have now upgraded to it or
a later version, and 5.8 packages are available for old IRIX, AIX
Solaris and Tru64 systems.

Change the perl Makefile to work around this by explicitly unsetting

INSTALL_BASE is set in PERL_MM_OPT by e.g. the popular local::lib
package, from its documentation:
eval $(perl -I$HOME/perl5/lib/perl5 -Mlocal::lib 2>/dev/null)

building Git. This change enables us to build in these environments.

Before commit d3c9634e, performing a "git svn rebase" that fetched a
change containing CRLFs corrupted the git-svn meta-data. This was
worked around in d3c9634e by setting core.autocrlf to "false" in the
per-repo config when initing the clone. However, if the config
variable was later changed, the corruption would still occur.
This patch tries to fix it while allowing core.autocrlf to be
enabled, by disabling filters when when hashing.
git-svn is currently the only call-site for hash_and_insert_object
(apart from the test-suite), so changing it should be safe.

Update the usage of File::Temp->tempfile to place the temporary files
within the repository directory instead of just letting Perl decide what
directory to use, given there is a repository specified when requesting
the temporary file.
This is needed to be able to fix git-svn on msys as msysperl generates
paths with UNIX-style paths (/tmp/xxx) while the git tools expect natvie
path format (c:/..). The repository dir is stored in native format so by
using it as the base directory for temporary files we always get a
usable native full path.

A set of configuration variables, color.interactive.<slot>, are used to

For perl scripts, Git.pm provides $repo->get_color() method, which takes
the slot name and the default color, and returns the terminal escape
sequence to color the output text. $repo->get_colorbool() method can be

Direct .xs routine. Note that it does not work 100% correctly when

The trouble is that we might reuse packs information for another
Git project; that is not an issue since Git depends on uniqueness
of SHA1 ids so if we have found the object somewhere else, it is
nevertheless going to be the same object. It merely makes object
existence detection through this method unreliable; it is duly noted
in the documentation.

This patch also introduces repo_path(), wc_path() and wc_subdir()
accessor methods and wc_chdir() mutator.

This gives the user a way to easily pass options to the command routines.
Currently only the STDERR option is implemented and can be used to adjust
what shall be done with error output of the called command (most usefully,
it can be used to silence it).

Rename command_pipe() to command_output_pipe(), outsource
the functionality to _command_common_pipe().
Add command_input_pipe().

Currently if an external command returns error exit code, a generic exception
is thrown and there is no chance for the caller to retrieve the command's
output.
This patch introduces a Git::Error::Command exception class which is thrown
in this case and contains both the error code and the captured command output.
You can use the new git_cmd_try statement to fatally catch the exception
while producing a user-friendly message.
It also adds command_close_pipe() for easier checking of exit status of
a command we have just a pipe handle of. It has partial forward dependency
on the next patch, but basically only in the area of documentation.

So far, errors just killed the whole program and in case of an error
inside of libgit it would be totally uncatchable. This patch makes
Git.pm throw standard Perl exceptions instead. In the future we might
subclass Error to Git::Error or something but for now Error::Simple
is more than enough.

I have been thinking about how to do the error reporting the best
way and after scraping various overcomplicated concepts, I have
decided that by far the most elegant way is to throw Error exceptions;
the closest sane alternative is to catch the dies in Git.pm by
enclosing the calls in eval{}s and that's really _quite_ ugly.
The only "small" trouble is that Error.pm turns out sadly not to be
part of the standard distribution, and installation from CPAN is
a bother, especially if you can't install it system-wide. But since
it is very small, I've decided to just bundle it.

Instead of explicitly using the git wrapper to call external commands,
use the execv_git_cmd() function which will directly call whatever
needs to be called. GitBin option becomes useless so drop it.
This actually means the exec_path() thing I planned to use worthless
internally, but Jakub wants it in anyway and I don't mind, so...

This patch introduces a very basic and barebone Git.pm module
with a sketch of how the generic interface would look like;
most functions are missing, but this should give some good base.
I will continue expanding it.
Most desirable now is more careful error reporting, generic_in() for feeding
input to Git commands and the repository() constructor doing some poking
with git-rev-parse to get the git directory and subdirectory prefix.
Those three are basically the prerequisities for converting git-mv.
I will send them as follow-ups to this patch.
Currently Git.pm just wraps up exec()s of Git commands, but even that
is not trivial to get right and various Git perl scripts do it in
various inconsistent ways. In addition to Git.pm, there is now also
Git.xs which provides barebone Git.xs for directly interfacing with
libgit.a, and as an example providing the hash_object() function using
libgit.
This adds the Git module, integrates it to the build system and as
an example converts the git-fmt-merge-msg.perl script to it (the result
is not very impressive since its advantage is not quite apparent in this
one, but I just picked up the simplest Git user around).
Compared to v3, only very minor things were fixed in this patch (some
whitespaces, a missing export, tiny bug in git-fmt-merge-msg.perl);
at first I wanted to post them as a separate patch but since this
is still only in pu, I decided that it will be cleaner to just resend
the patch.
My current working state is available all the time at
http://pasky.or.cz/~xpasky/git-perl/Git.pm
and an irregularily updated API documentation is at
