de1e67d070 list-objects: pass full pathname to callbacks
When we find a blob at "a/b/c", we currently pass this to
our show_object_fn callbacks as two components: "a/b/" and
"c". Callbacks which want the full value then call
path_name(), which concatenates the two. But this is an
inefficient interface; the path is a strbuf, and we could
simply append "c" to it temporarily, then roll back the
length, without creating a new copy.

So we could improve this by teaching the callsites of
path_name() this trick (and there are only 3). But we can
also notice that no callback actually cares about the
broken-down representation, and simply pass each callback
the full path "a/b/c" as a string. The callback code becomes
even simpler, then, as we do not have to worry about freeing
an allocated buffer, nor rolling back our modification to
the strbuf.

This is theoretically less efficient, as some callbacks
would not bother to format the final path component. But in
practice this is not measurable. Since we use the same
strbuf over and over, our work to grow it is amortized, and
we really only pay to memcpy a few bytes.

bd64516aca list-objects: drop name_path entirely
In the previous commit, we left name_path as a thin wrapper
around a strbuf. This patch drops it entirely. As a result,
every show_object_fn callback needs to be adjusted. However,
none of their code needs to be changed at all, because the
only use was to pass it to path_name(), which now handles
the bare strbuf.

13528ab37c list-objects: convert name_path to a strbuf
The "struct name_path" data is examined in only two places:
we generate it in process_tree(), and we convert it to a
single string in path_name(). Everyone else just passes it
through to those functions.

We can further note that process_tree() already keeps a
single strbuf with the leading tree path, for use with
tree_entry_interesting().

Instead of building a separate name_path linked list, let's
just use the one we already build in "base". This reduces
the amount of code (especially tricky code in path_name()
which did not check for integer overflows caused by deep
or large pathnames).

It is also more efficient in some instances.  Any time we
were using tree_entry_interesting, we were building up the
strbuf anyway, so this is an immediate and obvious win
there. In cases where we were not, we trade off storing
"pathname/" in a strbuf on the heap for each level of the
path, instead of two pointers and an int on the stack (with
one pointer into the tree object). On a 64-bit system, the
latter is 20 bytes; so if path components are less than that
on average, this has lower peak memory usage.  In practice
it probably doesn't matter either way; we are already
holding in memory all of the tree objects leading up to each
pathname, and for normal-depth pathnames, we are only
talking about hundreds of bytes.

This patch leaves "struct name_path" as a thin wrapper
around the strbuf, to avoid disrupting callbacks. We should
fix them, but leaving it out makes this diff easier to view.

f9fb9d0e3c show_object_with_name: simplify by using path_name()
When "git rev-list" shows an object with its associated path
name, it does so by walking the name_path linked list and
printing each component (stopping at any embedded NULs or
newlines).

We'd like to eventually get rid of name_path entirely in
favor of a single buffer, and dropping this custom printing
code is part of that. As a first step, let's use path_name()
to format the list into a single buffer, and print that.
This is strictly less efficient than the original, but it's
a temporary step in the refactoring; our end game will be to
get the fully formatted name in the first place.

6e8d46f9d4 revision: read --stdin with strbuf_getline()
Reading with getwholeline() and manually stripping the terminating
'\n' would leave CR at the end of the line if the input comes from
a DOS editor.

Constrasting this with the other changes around "--stdin" in this
series, one may realize that the way "log" family of commands read
the paths with "--stdin" looks inconsistent and sloppy.  It does not
allow us to C-quote a textual input, neither does it accept records
that are NUL-terminated.  These are unfortunately way too late to
fix X-<.

728350b76a revision.c: propagate tag names from pending array
When we unwrap a tag to find its commit for a traversal, we
do not propagate the "name" field of the tag in the pending
array (i.e., the ref name the user gave us in the first
place) to the commit (instead, we use an empty string). This
means that "git log --source" will never show the tag-name
for commits we reach through it.

This was broken in 2073949 (traverse_commit_list: support
pending blobs/trees with paths, 2014-10-15). That commit
tried to be careful and avoid propagating the path
information for a tag (which would be nonsensical) to trees
and blobs. But it should not have cut off the "name" field,
which should carry forward to children.

Note that this does mean that the "name" field will carry
forward to blobs and trees, too. Whereas prior to 2073949,
we always gave them an empty string. This is the right thing
to do, but in practice no callers probably use it (since now
we have an explicit separate "path" field, which was the
point of 2073949).

We add tests here not only for the broken case, but also a
basic sanity test of "log --source" in general, which did
not have any coverage in the test suite.

34fa79a6cd prefer memcpy to strcpy
When we already know the length of a string (e.g., because
we just malloc'd to fit it), it's nicer to use memcpy than
strcpy, as it makes it more obvious that we are not going to
overflow the buffer (because the size we pass matches the
size in the allocation).

This also eliminates calls to strcpy, which make auditing
the code base harder.

ce11360467 log: diagnose empty HEAD more clearly
If you init or clone an empty repository, the initial
message from running "git log" is not very friendly:

  $ git init
  Initialized empty Git repository in /home/peff/foo/.git/
  $ git log
  fatal: bad default revision 'HEAD'

Let's detect this situation and write a more friendly
message:

  $ git log
  fatal: your current branch 'master' does not have any commits yet

We also detect the case that 'HEAD' points to a broken ref;
this should be even less common, but is easy to see. Note
that we do not diagnose all possible cases. We rely on
resolve_ref, which means we do not get information about
complex cases. E.g., "--default master" would use dwim_ref
to find "refs/heads/master", but we notice only that
"master" does not exist. Similarly, a complex sha1
expression like "--default HEAD^2" will not resolve as a
ref.

But that's OK. We fall back to a generic error message in
those cases, and they are unlikely to be used anyway.
Catching an empty or broken "HEAD" improves the common case,
and the other cases are not regressed.

a5481a6c94 convert "enum date_mode" into a struct
In preparation for adding date modes that may carry extra
information beyond the mode itself, this patch converts the
date_mode enum into a struct.

Most of the conversion is fairly straightforward; we pass
the struct as a pointer and dereference the type field where
necessary. Locations that declare a date_mode can use a "{}"
constructor.  However, the tricky case is where we use the
enum labels as constants, like:

  show_date(t, tz, DATE_NORMAL);

Ideally we could say:

  show_date(t, tz, &{ DATE_NORMAL });

but of course C does not allow that. Likewise, we cannot
cast the constant to a struct, because we need to pass an
actual address. Our options are basically:

  1. Manually add a "struct date_mode d = { DATE_NORMAL }"
     definition to each caller, and pass "&d". This makes
     the callers uglier, because they sometimes do not even
     have their own scope (e.g., they are inside a switch
     statement).

  2. Provide a pre-made global "date_normal" struct that can
     be passed by address. We'd also need "date_rfc2822",
     "date_iso8601", and so forth. But at least the ugliness
     is defined in one place.

  3. Provide a wrapper that generates the correct struct on
     the fly. The big downside is that we end up pointing to
     a single global, which makes our wrapper non-reentrant.
     But show_date is already not reentrant, so it does not
     matter.

This patch implements 3, along with a minor macro to keep
the size of the callers sane.

2b2a5be394 each_ref_fn: change to take an object_id parameter
Change typedef each_ref_fn to take a "const struct object_id *oid"
parameter instead of "const unsigned char *sha1".

To aid this transition, implement an adapter that can be used to wrap
old-style functions matching the old typedef, which is now called
"each_ref_sha1_fn"), and make such functions callable via the new
interface. This requires the old function and its cb_data to be
wrapped in a "struct each_ref_fn_sha1_adapter", and that object to be
used as the cb_data for an adapter function, each_ref_fn_adapter().

This is an enormous diff, but most of it consists of simple,
mechanical changes to the sites that call any of the "for_each_ref"
family of functions. Subsequent to this change, the call sites can be
rewritten one by one to use the new interface.

b6e8a3b540 limit_list: avoid quadratic behavior from still_interesting
When we are limiting a rev-list traversal due to
UNINTERESTING refs, we have to walk down the tips (both
interesting and uninteresting) to find where they intersect.
We keep a queue of commits to examine, pop commits off
the queue one by one, and potentially add their parents.  The
size of the queue will naturally fluctuate based on the
"width" of the history graph; i.e., the number of
simultaneous lines of development. But for the most part it
will stay in the same ballpark as the initial number of tips
we fed, shrinking over time (as we hit common ancestors of
the tips). So roughly speaking, if we start with `N` tips,
we'll spend much of the time with a queue around `N` items.

For each UNINTERESTING commit we pop, we call
still_interesting to check whether marking its parents as
UNINTERESTING has made the whole queue uninteresting (in
which case we can quit early).  Because the queue is stored
as a linked list, this is `O(N)`, where `N` is the number of
items in the queue. So processing a queue with `N` commits
marked UNINTERESTING (and one or more interesting commits)
will take `O(N^2)`.

If you feed a lot of positive tips, this isn't a problem.
They aren't UNINTERESTING, so they don't incur the
still_interesting check.  It also isn't a problem if you
traverse from an interesting tip to some UNINTERESTING
bases. We order the queue by recency, so the interesting
commits stay at the front of the queue as we walk down them.
The linear check can exit early as soon as it sees one
interesting commit left in the queue.

But if you want to know whether an older commit is reachable
from a set of newer tips, we end up processing in the
opposite direction: from the UNINTERESTING ones down to the
interesting one. This may happen when we call:

  git rev-list $commits --not --all

in check_everything_connected after a fetch. If we fetched
something much older than most of our refs, and if we have a
large number of refs, the traversal cost is dominated by the
quadratic behavior.

These commands simulate the connectivity check of such a
fetch, when you have `$n` distinct refs in the receiver:

    # positive ref is 100,000 commits deep
    git rev-list --all | head -100000 | tail -1 >input

    # huge number of more recent negative refs
    git rev-list --all | head -$n | sed s/^/^/ >>input

    time git rev-list --stdin <input

Here are timings for various `n` on the linux.git
repository. The `n=1` case provides a baseline for just
walking the commits, which lets us see the still_interesting
overhead. The times marked with `+` subtract that baseline
to show just the extra time growth due to the large number
of refs. The `x` numbers show the slowdown of the adjusted
time versus the prior trial.

       n  | before                 | after
    --------------------------------------------------------
        1 | 0.991s                 | 0.848s
    10000 | 1.120s (+0.129s)       | 0.885s (+0.037s)
    20000 | 1.451s (+0.460s, 3.5x) | 0.923s (+0.075s, 2.0x)
    40000 | 2.731s (+1.740s, 3.8x) | 0.994s (+0.146s, 1.9x)
    80000 | 8.235s (+7.244s, 4.2x) | 1.123s (+0.275s, 1.9x)

Each trial doubles `n`, so you can see the quadratic (`4x`)
behavior before this patch. Afterwards, we have a roughly
linear relationship.

The implementation is fairly straightforward. Whenever we do
the linear search, we cache the interesting commit we find,
and next time check it before doing another linear search.
If that commit is removed from the list or becomes
UNINTERESTING itself, then we fall back to the linear
search. This is very similar to the trick used by fce87ae
(Fix quadratic performance in rewrite_one., 2008-07-12).

I considered and rejected several possible alternatives:

  1. Keep a count of UNINTERESTING commits in the queue.
     This requires managing the count not only when removing
     an item from the queue, but also when marking an item
     as UNINTERESTING. That requires touching the other
     functions which mark commits, and would require knowing
     quickly which commits are in the queue (lookup in the
     queue is linear, so we would need an auxiliary
     structure or to also maintain an IN_QUEUE flag in each
     commit object).

  2. Keep a separate list of interesting commits. Drop items
     from it when they are dropped from the queue, or if
     they become UNINTERESTING. This again suffers from
     extra complexity to maintain the list, not to mention
     CPU and memory.

  3. Use a better data structure for the queue. This is
     something that could help the fix in fce87ae, because
     we order the queue by recency, and it is about
     inserting quickly in recency order. So a normal
     priority queue would help there. But here, we cannot
     disturb the order of the queue, which makes things
     harder. We really do need an auxiliary index to track
     the flag we care about, which is basically option (2)
     above.

The "cache" trick is simple, and the numbers above show that
it works well in practice. This is because the length of
time it takes to find an interesting commit is proportional
to the length of time it will remain cached (i.e., if we
have to walk a long way to find it, it also means we have to
pop a lot of elements in the queue until we get rid of it
and have to find another interesting commit).

The worst case is still quadratic, though. We could have `N`
uninteresting commits at the front of the queue, followed by
`N` interesting commits, where commit `i` has parent `i+N`.
When we pop commit `i`, we will notice that the parent of
the next commit, `i+1+N` is still interesting and cache it.
But then handling commit `i+1`, we will mark its parent
`i+1+N` uninteresting, and immediately invalidate our cache.

rev-list --bisect is used by git bisect, but never together with

Because this is not supported, it makes little sense to use git log

Because "--graph" is about connected history while --no-walk is
about discrete points, it does not make sense to allow these two
options at the same time. [1]

This change makes a few calls to "show --graph" fail in t4052, but
asking to show one commit with graph is a nonsensical thing to do.
Thus, tests on "show --graph" in t4052 have been removed [2,3].
Same tests on "show" without --graph option have already been tested
in 4052.

3 testcases have been added to test this patch.

22dfa8a23d log: teach --invert-grep option
"git log --grep=<string>" shows only commits with messages that
match the given string, but sometimes it is useful to be able to
show only commits that do *not* have certain messages (e.g. "show
me ones that are not FIXUP commits").

Originally, we had the invert-grep flag in grep_opt, but because
"git grep --invert-grep" does not make sense except in conjunction
with "--files-with-matches", which is already covered by
"--files-without-matches", it was moved it to revisions structure.
To have the flag there expresses the function to the feature better.

When the newly inserted two tests run, the history would have commits
with messages "initial", "second", "third", "fourth", "fifth", "sixth"
and "Second", committed in this order.  The commits that does not match
either "th" or "Sec" is "second" and "initial". For the case insensitive
case only "initial" matches.

of edges uninteresting.  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.

option.

2ce406ccb8 get_merge_bases(): always clean-up object flags
The callers of get_merge_bases() can choose to leave object flags
used during the merge-base traversal by passing cleanup=0 as a
parameter, but in practice a very few callers can afford to do so
(namely, "git merge-base"), as they need to compute merge base in
preparation for other processing of their own and they need to see
the object without contaminate flags.

Change the function signature of get_merge_bases_many() and
get_merge_bases() to drop the cleanup parameter, so that the
majority of the callers do not have to say ", 1" at the end.

Give a new get_merge_bases_many_dirty() API to support only a few
callers that know they do not need to spend cycles cleaning up the
object flags.

207394908e traverse_commit_list: support pending blobs/trees with paths
When we call traverse_commit_list, we may have trees and
blobs in the pending array. As we process these, we pass the
"name" field from the pending entry as the path of the
object within the tree (which then becomes the root path if
we recurse into subtrees).

When we set up the traversal in prepare_revision_walk,
though, the "name" field of any pending trees and blobs is
likely to be the ref at which we found the object. We would
not want to make this part of the path (e.g., doing so would
make "git rev-list --objects v2.6.11-tree" in linux.git show
paths like "v2.6.11-tree/Makefile", which is nonsensical).
Therefore prepare_revision_walk sets the name field of each
pending tree and blobs to the empty string.

However, this leaves no room for a caller who does know the
correct path of a pending object to propagate that
information to the revision walker. We can fix this by
making two related changes:

  1. Use the "path" field as the path instead of the "name"
     field in traverse_commit_list. If the path is not set,
     default to "" (which is what we always ended up with in
     the current code, because of prepare_revision_walk).

  2. In prepare_revision_walk, make a complete copy of the
     entry. This makes the path field available to the
     walker (if there is one), solving our problem.
     Leaving the name field intact is now OK, as we do not
     use it as a path due to point (1) above (and we can use
     it to make more meaningful error messages if we want).
     We also make the original "mode" field available to the
     walker, though it does not actually use it.

Note that we still re-add the pending objects and free the
old ones (so we may strdup the path and name only to free
the old ones). This could be made more efficient by simply
copying the object_array entries that we are keeping.
However, that would require more restructuring of the code,
and is not done here.

1da1e07c83 clean up name allocation in prepare_revision_walk
When we enter prepare_revision_walk, we have zero or more
entries in our "pending" array. We disconnect that array
from the rev_info, and then process each entry:

  1. If the entry is a commit and the --source option is in
     effect, we keep a pointer to the object name.

  2. Otherwise, we re-add the item to the pending list with
     a blank name.

We then throw away the old array by freeing the array
itself, but do not touch the "name" field of each entry. For
any items of type (2), we leak the memory associated with
the name. This commit fixes that by calling object_array_clear,
which handles the cleanup for us.

That breaks (1), though, because it depends on the memory
pointed to by the name to last forever. We can solve that by
making a copy of the name. This is slightly less efficient,
but it shouldn't matter in practice, as we do it only for
the tip commits of the traversal.

2608c24940 log-tree: make name_decoration hash static
In the previous commit, we made add_name_decoration global
so that adders would not have to access the hash directly.
We now make the hash itself static so that callers _have_ to
add through our function, making sure that all additions go
through a single point.  To do this, we have to add one more
accessor function: a way to lookup entries in the hash.

Since the only caller doesn't actually look at the returned
value, but rather only asks whether there is a decoration or
not, we could provide only a boolean "has_name_decoration".
That would allow us to make "struct name_decoration" local
to log-tree, as well.

However, it's unlikely to cause any maintainability harm
making the actual data public, and this interface is more
flexible if we need to look at decorations from other parts
of the code in the future.

b66103c3ba convert logmsg_reencode to get_commit_buffer
Like the callsites in the previous commit, logmsg_reencode
already falls back to read_sha1_file when necessary.
However, I split its conversion out into its own commit
because it's a bit more complex.

We return either:

  1. The original commit->buffer

  2. A newly allocated buffer from read_sha1_file

  3. A reencoded buffer (based on either 1 or 2 above).

while trying to do as few extra reads/allocations as
possible. Callers currently free the result with
logmsg_free, but we can simplify this by pointing them
straight to unuse_commit_buffer. This is a slight layering
violation, in that we may be passing a buffer from (3).
However, since the end result is to free() anything except
(1), which is unlikely to change, and because this makes the
interface much simpler, it's a reasonable bending of the
rules.

eb077745a4 shortlog: allow --exclude=<glob> to be passed
These two commands are supposed to be equivalent:

  $ git log --exclude=refs/notes/\* --all --no-merges --since=2.days |
    git shortlog
  $ git shortlog --exclude=refs/notes/\* --all --no-merges --since=2.days

However, the latter does not understand the ref-exclusion command
line option, even though other options understood by "log", such as
"--all" and "--no-merges", are understood.

This was because e7b432c5 (revision: introduce --exclude=<glob> to
tame wildcards, 2013-08-30) did not wire the new option fully to the
machinery.  A new option understood by handle_revision_pseudo_opt()
must be told to handle_revision_opt() as well.

2014-04-08 12:00:33 -07:00
Vicent Marti
2db1a43f41 add ignore_missing_links mode to revwalk
When pack-objects is computing the reachability bitmap to
serve a fetch request, it can erroneously die() if some of
the UNINTERESTING objects are not present. Upload-pack
throws away HAVE lines from the client for objects we do not
have, but we may have a tip object without all of its
ancestors (e.g., if the tip is no longer reachable and was
new enough to survive a `git prune`, but some of its
reachable objects did get pruned).

In the non-bitmap case, we do a revision walk with the HAVE
objects marked as UNINTERESTING. The revision walker
explicitly ignores errors in accessing UNINTERESTING commits
to handle this case (and we do not bother looking at
UNINTERESTING trees or blobs at all).

When we have bitmaps, however, the process is quite
different.  The bitmap index for a pack-objects run is
calculated in two separate steps:

First, we perform an extensive walk from all the HAVEs to
find the full set of objects reachable from them. This walk
is usually optimized away because we are expected to hit an
object with a bitmap during the traversal, which allows us
to terminate early.

Secondly, we perform an extensive walk from all the WANTs,
which usually also terminates early because we hit a commit
with an existing bitmap.

Once we have the resulting bitmaps from the two walks, we
AND-NOT them together to obtain the resulting set of objects
we need to pack.

When we are walking the HAVE objects, the revision walker
does not know that we are walking it only to mark the
results as uninteresting. We strip out the UNINTERESTING flag,
because those objects _are_ interesting to us during the
first walk. We want to keep going to get a complete set of
reachable objects if we can.

We need some way to tell the revision walker that it's OK to
silently truncate the HAVE walk, just like it does for the
UNINTERESTING case. This patch introduces a new
`ignore_missing_links` flag to the `rev_info` struct, which
we set only for the HAVE walk.

It also adds tests to cover UNINTERESTING objects missing
from several positions: a missing blob, a missing tree, and
a missing parent commit. The missing blob already worked (as
we do not care about its contents at all), but the other two
cases caused us to die().

Note that there are a few cases we do not need to test:

  1. We do not need to test a missing tree, with the blob
     still present. Without the tree that refers to it, we
     would not know that the blob is relevant to our walk.

  2. We do not need to test a tip commit that is missing.
     Upload-pack omits these for us (and in fact, we
     complain even in the non-bitmap case if it fails to do
     so).

a74352867e revision: propagate flag bits from tags to pointees
With the previous fix 895c5ba3 (revision: do not peel tags used in
range notation, 2013-09-19), handle_revision_arg() that processes
command line arguments for the "git log" family of commands no
longer directly places the object pointed by the tag in the pending
object array when it sees a tag object.  We used to place pointee
there after copying the flag bits like UNINTERESTING and
SYMMETRIC_LEFT.

This change meant that any flag that is relevant to later history
traversal must now be propagated to the pointed objects (most often
these are commits) while starting the traversal, which is partly
done by handle_commit() that is called from prepare_revision_walk().
We did propagate UNINTERESTING, but did not do so for others, most
notably SYMMETRIC_LEFT.  This caused "git log --left-right v1.0..."
(where "v1.0" is a tag) to start losing the "leftness" from the
commit the tag points at.

2ac5e4470b revision: mark contents of an uninteresting tree uninteresting
"git rev-list --objects ^A^{tree} B^{tree}" ought to mean "I want a
list of objects inside B's tree, but please exclude the objects that
appear inside A's tree".

we see the top-level tree marked as uninteresting (i.e. ^A^{tree} in
the above example) and call mark_tree_uninteresting() on it; this
unfortunately prevents us from recursing into the tree and marking
the objects in the tree as uninteresting.

The reason why "git log ^A A" yields an empty set of commits,
i.e. we do not have a similar issue for commits, is because we call
mark_parents_uninteresting() after seeing an uninteresting commit.
The uninteresting-ness of the commit itself does not prevent its
parents from being marked as uninteresting.

Introduce mark_tree_contents_uninteresting() and structure the code
in handle_commit() in such a way that it makes it the responsibility
of the callchain leading to this function to mark commits, trees and
blobs as uninteresting, and also make it the responsibility of the
helpers called from this function to mark objects that are reachable
from them.

Note that this is a very old bug that probably dates back to the day
when "rev-list --objects" was introduced.  The line to clear
tree->object.parsed at the end of mark_tree_contents_uninteresting()
can be removed when this fix is merged to the codebase after
6e454b9a (clear parsed flag when we free tree buffers, 2013-06-05).

4a2d5ae262 pathspec: stop --*-pathspecs impact on internal parse_pathspec() uses
Normally parse_pathspec() is used on command line arguments where it
can do fancy thing like parsing magic on each argument or adding magic
for all pathspecs based on --*-pathspecs options.

There's another use of parse_pathspec(), where pathspec is needed, but
the input is known to be pure paths. In this case we usually don't
want --*-pathspecs to interfere. And we definitely do not want to
parse magic in these paths, regardless of --literal-pathspecs.

Add new flag PATHSPEC_LITERAL_PATH for this purpose. When it's set,
--*-pathspecs are ignored, no magic is parsed. And if the caller
allows PATHSPEC_LITERAL (i.e. the next calls can take literal magic),
then PATHSPEC_LITERAL will be set.

This fixes cases where git chokes when GIT_*_PATHSPECS are set because
parse_pathspec() indicates it won't take any magic. But
GIT_*_PATHSPECS add them anyway. These are

   export GIT_LITERAL_PATHSPECS=1
   git blame -- something
   git log --follow something
   git log --merge

"git ls-files --with-tree=path" (aka parse_pathspec() in
overlay_tree_on_cache()) is safe because the input is empty, and
producing one pathspec due to PATHSPEC_PREFER_CWD does not take any
magic into account.

c8556c6213 Fix calling parse_pathspec with no paths nor PATHSPEC_PREFER_* flags
When parse_pathspec() is called with no paths, the behavior could be
either return no paths, or return one path that is cwd. Some commands
do the former, some the latter. parse_pathspec() itself does not make
either the default and requires the caller to specify either flag if
it may run into this situation.

I've grep'd through all parse_pathspec() call sites. Some pass
neither, but those are guaranteed never pass empty path to
parse_pathspec(). There are two call sites that may pass empty path
and are fixed with this patch.

895c5ba3c1 revision: do not peel tags used in range notation
A range notation "A..B" means exactly the same thing as what "^A B"
means, i.e. the set of commits that are reachable from B but not
from A.  But the internal representation after the revision parser
parsed these two notations are subtly different.

 - "rev-list ^A B" leaves A and B in the revs->pending.objects[]
   array, with the former marked as UNINTERESTING and the revision
   traversal machinery propagates the mark to underlying commit
   objects A^0 and B^0.

 - "rev-list A..B" peels tags and leaves A^0 (marked as
   UNINTERESTING) and B^0 in revs->pending.objects[] array before
   the traversal machinery kicks in.

This difference usually does not matter, but starts to matter when
the --objects option is used.  For example, we see this:

    $ git rev-list --objects v1.8.4^1..v1.8.4 | grep $(git rev-parse v1.8.4)
    $ git rev-list --objects v1.8.4 ^v1.8.4^1 | grep $(git rev-parse v1.8.4)
    04f013dc38 v1.8.4

With the former invocation, the revision traversal machinery never
hears about the tag v1.8.4 (it only sees the result of peeling it,
i.e. the commit v1.8.4^0), and the tag itself does not appear in the
output.  The latter does send the tag object itself to the output.

Make the range notation keep the unpeeled objects and feed them to
the traversal machinery to fix this inconsistency.

e7b432c521 revision: introduce --exclude=<glob> to tame wildcards
People often find "git log --branches" etc. that includes _all_
branches is cumbersome to use when they want to grab most but except
some.  The same applies to --tags, --all and --glob.

Teach the revision machinery to remember patterns, and then upon the
next such a globbing option, exclude those that match the pattern.

With this, I can view only my integration branches (e.g. maint,
master, etc.) without topic branches, which are named after two
letters from primary authors' names, slash and topic name.

    git rev-list --no-walk --exclude=??/* --branches |
    git name-rev --refs refs/heads/* --stdin

This one shows things reachable from local and remote branches that
have not been merged to the integration branches.

    git log --remotes --branches --not --exclude=??/* --branches

It may be a bit rough around the edges, in that the pattern to give
the exclude option depends on what globbing option follows.  In
these examples, the pattern "??/*" is used, not "refs/heads/??/*",
because the globbing option that follows the -"-exclude=<pattern>"
is "--branches".  As each use of globbing option resets previously
set "--exclude", this may not be such a bad thing, though.

diffs when combined with options such as -p; the diff is against the
reflog predecessor, not the parent of the commit.

Save the true parents on the side, extending the functions from the
previous commit.  The diff logic picks them up and uses them to show
the correct diffs.

We do have to be somewhat careful about repeated calling of
save_parents(), since the reflog may list a commit more than once.  We
now store (commit_list*)-1 to distinguish the "not saved yet" and
"root commit" cases.  This lets us preserve an empty parent list even
if save_parents() is repeatedly called.

53d00b39ce log: use true parents for diff even when rewriting
When using pathspec filtering in combination with diff-based log
output, parent simplification happens before the diff is computed.
The diff is therefore against the *simplified* parents.

This works okay, arguably by accident, in the normal case:
simplification reduces to one parent as long as the commit is TREESAME
to it.  So the simplified parent of any given commit must have the
same tree contents on the filtered paths as its true (unfiltered)
parent.

However, --full-diff breaks this guarantee, and indeed gives pretty
spectacular results when comparing the output of

  git log --graph --stat ...
  git log --graph --full-diff --stat ...

(--graph internally kicks in parent simplification, much like
--parents).

To fix it, store a copy of the parent list before simplification (in a
slab) whenever --full-diff is in effect.  Then use the stored parents
instead of the simplified ones in the commit display code paths.  The
latter do not actually check for --full-diff to avoid duplicated code;
they just grab the original parents if save_parents() has not been
called for this revision walk.

For ordinary commits it should be obvious that this is the right thing
to do.

Merge commits are a bit subtle.  Observe that with default
simplification, merge simplification is an all-or-nothing decision:
either the merge is TREESAME to one parent and disappears, or it is
different from all parents and the parent list remains intact.
Redundant parents are not pruned, so the existing code also shows them
as a merge.

So if we do show a merge commit, the parent list just consists of the
rewrite result on each parent.  Running, e.g., --cc on this in
--full-diff mode is not very useful: if any commits were skipped, some
hunks will disagree with all sides of the merge (with one side,
because commits were skipped; with the others, because they didn't
have those changes in the first place).  This triggers --cc showing
these hunks spuriously.

Therefore I believe that even for merge commits it is better to show
the diffs wrt. the original parents.

9c5e6c802c Convert "struct cache_entry *" to "const ..." wherever possible
I attempted to make index_state->cache[] a "const struct cache_entry **"
to find out how existing entries in index are modified and where. The
question I have is what do we do if we really need to keep track of on-disk
changes in the index. The result is

 - diff-lib.c: setting CE_UPTODATE

 - name-hash.c: setting CE_HASHED

 - preload-index.c, read-cache.c, unpack-trees.c and
   builtin/update-index: obvious

 - entry.c: write_entry() may refresh the checked out entry via
   fill_stat_cache_info(). This causes "non-const struct cache_entry
   *" in builtin/apply.c, builtin/checkout-index.c and
   builtin/checkout.c

 - builtin/ls-files.c: --with-tree changes stagemask and may set
   CE_UPDATE

Of these, write_entry() and its call sites are probably most
interesting because it modifies on-disk info. But this is stat info
and can be retrieved via refresh, at least for porcelain
commands. Other just uses ce_flags for local purposes.

So, keeping track of "dirty" entries is just a matter of setting a
flag in index modification functions exposed by read-cache.c. Except
unpack-trees, the rest of the code base does not do anything funny
behind read-cache's back.

The actual patch is less valueable than the summary above. But if
anyone wants to re-identify the above sites. Applying this patch, then
this:

    diff --git a/cache.h b/cache.h
    index 430d021..1692891 100644

08f704f294 toposort: rename "lifo" field
The primary invariant of sort_in_topological_order() is that a
parent commit is not emitted until all children of it are.  When
traversing a forked history like this with "git log C E":

    A----B----C
     \
      D----E

we ensure that A is emitted after all of B, C, D, and E are done, B
has to wait until C is done, and D has to wait until E is done.

In some applications, however, we would further want to control how
these child commits B, C, D and E on two parallel ancestry chains
are shown.

Most of the time, we would want to see C and B emitted together, and
then E and D, and finally A (i.e. the --topo-order output).  The
"lifo" parameter of the sort_in_topological_order() function is used
to control this behaviour.  We start the traversal by knowing two
commits, C and E.  While keeping in mind that we also need to
inspect E later, we pick C first to inspect, and we notice and
record that B needs to be inspected.  By structuring the "work to be
done" set as a LIFO stack, we ensure that B is inspected next,
before other in-flight commits we had known that we will need to
inspect, e.g. E.

When showing in --date-order, we would want to see commits ordered
by timestamps, i.e. show C, E, B and D in this order before showing
A, possibly mixing commits from two parallel histories together.
When "lifo" parameter is set to false, the function keeps the "work
to be done" set sorted in the date order to realize this semantics.
After inspecting C, we add B to the "work to be done" set, but the
next commit we inspect from the set is E which is newer than B.

The name "lifo", however, is too strongly tied to the way how the
function implements its behaviour, and does not describe what the
behaviour _means_.

Replace this field with an enum rev_sort_order, with two possible
values: REV_SORT_IN_GRAPH_ORDER and REV_SORT_BY_COMMIT_DATE, and
update the existing code.  The mechanical replacement rule is:

  "lifo == 0" is equivalent to "sort_order == REV_SORT_BY_COMMIT_DATE"
  "lifo == 1" is equivalent to "sort_order == REV_SORT_IN_GRAPH_ORDER"

6e454b9a31 clear parsed flag when we free tree buffers
Many code paths will free a tree object's buffer and set it
to NULL after finishing with it in order to keep memory
usage down during a traversal. However, out of 8 sites that
do this, only one actually unsets the "parsed" flag back.
Those sites that don't are setting a trap for later users of
the tree object; even after calling parse_tree, the buffer
will remain NULL, causing potential segfaults.

It is not known whether this is triggerable in the current
code. Most commands do not do an in-memory traversal
followed by actually using the objects again. However, it
does not hurt to be safe for future callers.

In most cases, we can abstract this out to a
"free_tree_buffer" helper. However, there are two
exceptions:

  1. The fsck code relies on the parsed flag to know that we
     were able to parse the object at one point. We can
     switch this to using a flag in the "flags" field.

  2. The index-pack code sets the buffer to NULL but does
     not free it (it is freed by a caller). We should still
     unset the parsed flag here, but we cannot use our
     helper, as we do not want to free the buffer.

31faeb2088 object_array_entry: fix memory handling of the name field
Previously, the memory management of the object_array_entry::name
field was inconsistent and undocumented.  object_array_entries are
ultimately created by a single function, add_object_array_with_mode(),
which has an argument "const char *name".  This function used to
simply set the name field to reference the string pointed to by the
name parameter, and nobody on the object_array side ever freed the
memory.  Thus, it assumed that the memory for the name field would be
managed by the caller, and that the lifetime of that string would be
at least as long as the lifetime of the object_array_entry.  But
callers were inconsistent:

* Some passed pointers to constant strings or argv entries, which was
  OK.

* Some passed pointers to newly-allocated memory, but didn't arrange
  for the memory ever to be freed.

* Some passed the return value of sha1_to_hex(), which is a pointer to
  a statically-allocated buffer that can be overwritten at any time.

* Some passed pointers to refnames that they received from a
  for_each_ref()-type iteration, but the lifetimes of such refnames is
  not guaranteed by the refs API.

Bring consistency to this mess by changing object_array to make its
own copy for the object_array_entry::name field and free this memory
when an object_array_entry is deleted from the array.

Many callers were passing the empty string as the name parameter, so
as a performance optimization, treat the empty string specially.
Instead of making a copy, store a pointer to a statically-allocated
empty string to object_array_entry::name.  When deleting such an
entry, skip the free().

Change the callers that were already passing copies to
add_object_array_with_mode() to either skip the copy, or (if the
memory needed to be allocated anyway) freeing the memory itself.

A part of this commit effectively reverts

141efdba57 revision.c: make default history consider bottom commits
Previously, the default history treated bottom commits the same as any
other UNINTERESTING commit, which could force it down side branches.

Consider the following history:

   *A--*B---D--*F         * marks !TREESAME parent paths
     \     /*
      `-C-'

When requesting "B..F", B is UNINTERESTING but TREESAME to D. C is
!UNINTERESTING.

So default following would go from D into the irrelevant side branch C
to A, rather than to B.  Note also that if there had been an extra
!UNINTERESTING commit B1 between B and D, it wouldn't have gone down C.

Change the default following to test relevant_commit() instead of
!UNINTERESTING, so it can proceed straight from D to B, thus finishing
the traversal of that path.

Use the BOTTOM flag to define relevance for pruning. Relevant commits
are those that are !UNINTERESTING or BOTTOM, and this allows us to
identify irrelevant side branches (UNINTERESTING && !BOTTOM).

If a merge has relevant parents, and it is TREESAME to them, then do not
let irrelevant parents cause the merge to be treated as !TREESAME.

When considering simplification, don't always include all merges -
merges with exactly one relevant parent can be simplified, if TREESAME
according to the above rule.

7f34a46ff5 revision.c: add BOTTOM flag for commits
When performing edge-based operations on the revision graph, it can be
useful to be able to identify the INTERESTING graph's connection(s) to
the bottom commit(s) specified by the user.

Conceptually when the user specifies "A..B" (== B ^A), they are asking
for the history from A to B. The first connection from A onto the
INTERESTING graph is part of that history, and should be considered. If
we consider only INTERESTING nodes and their connections, then we're
really only considering the history from A's immediate descendants to B.

This patch does not change behaviour, but adds a new BOTTOM flag to
indicate the bottom commits specified by the user, ready to be used by
following patches.

We immediately use the BOTTOM flag to return collect_bottom_commits() to
its original approach of examining the pending commit list rather than
the command line. This will ensure alignment of the definition of
"bottom" with future patches.

143f1eafdb simplify-merges: drop merge from irrelevant side branch
Reimplement commit 4b7f53da on top of the new simplify-merges
infrastructure, tightening the condition to only consider root parents;
the original version incorrectly dropped parents that were TREESAME to
anything.

Original log message follows.

The merge simplification rule stated in 6546b59 (revision traversal:
show full history with merge simplification, 2008-07-31) still
treated merge commits too specially.  Namely, in a history with this
shape:

	---o---o---M
	          /
         x---x---x

where three 'x' were on a history completely unrelated to the main
history 'o' and do not touch any of the paths we are following, we
still said that after simplifying all of the parents of M, 'x'
(which is the leftmost 'x' that rightmost 'x simplifies down to) and
'o' (which would be the last commit on the main history that touches
the paths we are following) are independent from each other, and
both need to be kept.

That is incorrect; when the side branch 'x' never touches the paths,
it should be removed to allow M to simplify down to the last commit
on the main history that touches the paths.

find ourselves TREESAME to apparently redundant parents. Prevent
simplify_merges() from removing every TREESAME parent; if this would

d0af663e42 revision.c: Make --full-history consider more merges
History simplification previously always treated merges as TREESAME
if they were TREESAME to any parent.

While this was consistent with the default behaviour, this could be
extremely unhelpful when searching detailed history, and could not be
overridden. For example, if a merge had ignored a change, as if by "-s
ours", then:

  git log -m -p --full-history -Schange file

would successfully locate "change"'s addition but would not locate the
merge that resolved against it.

Futher, simplify_merges could drop the actual parent that a commit
was TREESAME to, leaving it as a normal commit marked TREESAME that
isn't actually TREESAME to its remaining parent.

Now redefine a commit's TREESAME flag to be true only if a commit is
TREESAME to _all_ of its parents. This doesn't affect either the default
simplify_history behaviour (because partially TREESAME merges are turned
into normal commits), or full-history with parent rewriting (because all
merges are output). But it does affect other modes. The clearest
difference is that --full-history will show more merges - sufficient to
ensure that -m -p --full-history log searches can really explain every
change to the file, including those changes' ultimate fate in merges.

Also modify simplify_merges to recalculate TREESAME after removing
a parent. This is achieved by storing per-parent TREESAME flags on the
initial scan, so the combined flag can be easily recomputed.

This fixes some t6111 failures, but creates a couple of new ones -
we are now showing some merges that don't need to be shown.

a765499a08 revision.c: treat A...B merge bases as if manually specified
The documentation assures users that "A...B" is defined as "A B --not

the calculated merge bases were not sent to add_rev_cmdline().

The main effect of this was that although

worked, the simpler form

  git rev-list --ancestry-path A...B

failed with a "no bottom commits" error.

Other potential users of bottom commits could also be affected by this
problem, if they examine revs->cmdline_info; I came across the issue in
my proposed history traversal refinements series.

So ensure that the calculated merge bases are sent to add_rev_cmdline(),

5a10d23658 pretty: save commit encoding from logmsg_reencode if the caller needs it
The commit encoding is parsed by logmsg_reencode, there's no need for
the caller to re-parse it again. The reencoded message now has the new
encoding, not the original one. The caller would need to read commit
object again before parsing.

70d26c6e76 read_revisions_from_stdin: make copies for handle_revision_arg
read_revisions_from_stdin() has passed pointers to its read buffer
down to handle_revision_arg() since its inception way back in 42cabc3
(Teach rev-list an option to read revs from the standard input.,
2006-09-05).  Even back then, this was a bug: through
add_pending_object, the argument was recorded in the object_array's
'name' field.

Fix it by making a copy whenever read_revisions_from_stdin() passes an
argument down the callchain.  The other caller runs handle_revision_arg()
on argv[], where it would be redundant to make a copy.

12da1d1f6f Implement line-history search (git log -L)
This is a rewrite of much of Bo's work, mainly in an effort to split
it into smaller, easier to understand routines.

The algorithm is built around the struct range_set, which encodes a
series of line ranges as intervals [a,b).  This is used in two
contexts:

* A set of lines we are tracking (which will change as we dig through
  history).
* To encode diffs, as pairs of ranges.

The main routine is range_set_map_across_diff().  It processes the
diff between a commit C and some parent P.  It determines which diff
hunks are relevant to the ranges tracked in C, and computes the new
ranges for P.

The algorithm is then simply to process history in topological order
from newest to oldest, computing ranges and (partial) diffs.  At
branch points, we need to merge the ranges we are watching.  We will
find that many commits do not affect the chosen ranges, and mark them
TREESAME (in addition to those already filtered by pathspec limiting).
Another pass of history simplification then gets rid of such commits.

This is wired as an extra filtering pass in the log machinery.  This
currently only reduces code duplication, but should allow for other
simplifications and options to be used.

Finally, we hook a diff printer into the output chain.  Ideally we
would wire directly into the diff logic, to optionally use features
like word diff.  However, that will require some major reworking of
the diff chain, so we completely replace the output with our own diff
for now.

As this was a GSoC project, and has quite some history by now, many
people have helped.  In no particular order, thanks go to

parent of the current commit, and is used by rewrite_parents
to rewrite all the parents.

Decouple the dependence between them by making rewrite_one
a callback function that is passed to rewrite_parents. Then
export rewrite_parents for reuse by the line history browser.

c19d1b4e84 Fix revision walk for commits with the same dates
Logic in still_interesting function allows to stop the commits
traversing if the oldest processed commit is not older then the
youngest commit on the list to process and the list contains only
commits marked as not interesting ones. It can be premature when dealing
with a set of coequal commits. For example git rev-list A^! --not B
provides wrong answer if all commits in the range A..B had the same
commit time and there are more then 7 of them.

To fix this problem the relevant part of the logic in still_interesting
is changed to: the walk can be stopped if the oldest processed commit is
younger then the youngest commit on the list to processed.

04deccda11 log: re-encode commit messages before grepping
If you run "git log --grep=foo", we will run your regex on
the literal bytes of the commit message. This can provide
confusing results if the commit message is not in the same
encoding as your grep expression (or worse, you have commits
in multiple encodings, in which case your regex would need
to be written to match either encoding). On top of this, we
might also be grepping in the commit's notes, which are
already re-encoded, potentially leading to grepping in a
buffer with mixed encodings concatenated. This is insanity,
but most people never noticed, because their terminal and
their commit encodings all match.

Instead, let's massage the to-be-grepped commit into a
standardized encoding. There is not much point in adding a
flag for "this is the encoding I expect my grep pattern to
match"; the only sane choice is for it to use the log output
encoding. That is presumably what the user's terminal is
using, and it means that the patterns found by the grep will
match the output produced by git.

As a bonus, this fixes a potential segfault in commit_match
when commit->buffer is NULL, as we now build on logmsg_reencode,
which handles reading the commit buffer from disk if
necessary. The segfault can be triggered with:

        git commit -m 'text1' --allow-empty
        git commit -m 'text2' --allow-empty
        git log --graph --no-walk --grep 'text2'

which arguably does not make any sense (--graph inherently
wants a connected history, and by --no-walk the command line
is telling us to show discrete points in history without
connectivity), and we probably should forbid the
combination, but that is a separate issue.

4b7f53da76 simplify-merges: drop merge from irrelevant side branch
The merge simplification rule stated in 6546b59 (revision traversal:
show full history with merge simplification, 2008-07-31) still
treated merge commits too specially.  Namely, in a history with this
shape:

	---o---o---M
	          /
         x---x---x

where three 'x' were on a history completely unrelated to the main
history 'o' and do not touch any of the paths we are following, we
still said that after simplifying all of the parents of M, 'x'
(which is the leftmost 'x' that rightmost 'x simplifies down to) and
'o' (which would be the last commit on the main history that touches
the paths we are following) are independent from each other, and
both need to be kept.

That is incorrect; when the side branch 'x' never touches the paths,
it should be removed to allow M to simplify down to the last commit
on the main history that touches the paths.

df874fa82e log --use-mailmap: optimize for cases without --author/--committer search
When we taught the commit_match() mechanism to pay attention to the
new --use-mailmap option, we started to unconditionally copy the
commit object to a temporary buffer, just in case we need the author
and committer lines updated via the mailmap mechanism, and rewrite
author and committer using the mailmap.

It turns out that this has a rather unpleasant performance
implications.  In the linux kernel repository, running

  $ git log --author='Junio C Hamano' --pretty=short >/dev/null

under /usr/bin/time, with and without --use-mailmap (the .mailmap
file is 118 entries long, the particular author does not appear in
it), cost (with warm cache):

  [without --use-mailmap]
  5.42user 0.26system 0:05.70elapsed 99%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 2005936maxresident)k
  0inputs+0outputs (0major+137669minor)pagefaults 0swaps

  [with --use-mailmap]
  6.47user 0.30system 0:06.78elapsed 99%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 2006288maxresident)k
  0inputs+0outputs (0major+137692minor)pagefaults 0swaps

which incurs about 20% overhead.  The command is doing extra work,
so the extra cost may be justified.

But it is inexcusable to pay the cost when we do not need
author/committer match.  In the same repository,

  $ git log --grep='fix menuconfig on debian lenny' --pretty=short >/dev/null

shows very similar numbers as the above:

  [without --use-mailmap]
  5.32user 0.30system 0:05.63elapsed 99%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 2005984maxresident)k
  0inputs+0outputs (0major+137672minor)pagefaults 0swaps

  [with --use-mailmap]
  6.64user 0.24system 0:06.89elapsed 99%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 2006320maxresident)k
  0inputs+0outputs (0major+137694minor)pagefaults 0swaps

The latter case is an unnecessary performance regression.  We may
want to _show_ the result with mailmap applied, but we do not have
to copy and rewrite the author/committer of all commits we try to
match if we do not query for these fields.

Trivially optimize this performace regression by limiting the
rewrites for only when we are matching with author/committer fields.

d72fbe8111 log: grep author/committer using mailmap
Currently you can use mailmap to display log authors and committers
but you can't use the mailmap to find commits with mapped values.

This commit allows you to run:

    git log --use-mailmap --author mapped_name_or_email
    git log --use-mailmap --committer mapped_name_or_email

Of course it only works if the --use-mailmap option is used.

The new name and email are copied only when necessary.

727b6fc3ed log --grep: accept --basic-regexp and --perl-regexp
When we added the "--perl-regexp" option (or "-P") to "git grep", we
should have done the same for the commands in the "git log" family,
but somehow we forgot to do so.  This corrects it, but we will
reserve the short-and-sweet "-P" option for something else for now.

Also introduce the "--basic-regexp" option for completeness, so that
the "last one wins" principle can be used to defeat an earlier -E
option, e.g. "git log -E --basic-regexp --grep='<bre>'".  Note that
it cannot have the short "-G" option as the option is to grep in the
patch text in the context of "log" family.
