c0fa8255c6 Fold get_merge_bases_clean() into get_merge_bases()
Change get_merge_bases() to be able to clean up after itself if
needed by adding a cleanup parameter.

We don't need to save the flags and restore them afterwards anymore;
that was a leftover from before the flags were moved out of the
range used in revision.c.  clear_commit_marks() sets them to zero,
which is enough.

02d3dca3bf revision.c: fix "dense" under --remove-empty
It had the wrong test for whether a commit was a merge. What it did was to
say that a non-merge has exactly one parent (which sounds almost right),
but the fact is, initial trees have no parent at all, but they're
obviously not merges.

6631c73685 revision.c: --full-history fix.
With history simplification, we still show merges that are required
to make the history _complete_, i.e. say that you had:

	  a
	  |
	  b
	 / \
	c   d
	|   |

and neither "a" nor "b" actually changed the file, but both "c" and "d"
did: in this case we have to leave "b" around just because otherwise there
would be no way to show the _relationship_, even if "b" itself doesn't
actually change the tree in any way what-so-ever.

It would make sense to make that further simplification if the
"--parents" flag wasn't present.  In that case the user is
literally asking for a list of commits and is not interested in
the relationship between them.

This patch also fixes a real bug.  Without this patch, the
"--parents --full-history" combination (which you'd get if you
do something like

	gitk --full-history Makefile

or similar) will actually _drop_ merges where all children are identical.
That's wrong in the --full-history case, because it means that the graph
ends up missing lots of entries.

In the process, this also should make

	git-rev-list --full-history Makefile

give just the _true_ list of all commits that changed Makefile (and
properly ignore merges that were identical in one parent), because now
we're not asking for "--parent", so we don't need the unnecessary merge
commits to keep the history together.

0d2c9d67d9 Add '...' operator for revisions
'A...B' is a shortcut for 'A B --not $(git-merge-base --all A B)'.
This XOR-like operation is called symmetric difference in set
theory.

The symbol '...' has been chosen because it's rather similar to the
existing '..' operator and the somewhat more natural caret ('^') is
already taken.

1f1e895fcc Add "named object array" concept
We've had this notion of a "object_list" for a long time, which eventually
grew a "name" member because some users (notably git-rev-list) wanted to
name each object as it is generated.

That object_list is great for some things, but it isn't all that wonderful
for others, and the "name" member is generally not used by everybody.

This patch splits the users of the object_list array up into two: the
traditional list users, who want the list-like format, and who don't
actually use or want the name. And another class of users that really used
the list as an extensible array, and generally wanted to name the objects.

The patch is fairly straightforward, but it's also biggish. Most of it
really just cleans things up: switching the revision parsing and listing
over to the array makes things like the builtin-diff usage much simpler
(we now see exactly how many members the array has, and we don't get the
objects reversed from the order they were on the command line).

One of the main reasons for doing this at all is that the malloc overhead
of the simple object list was actually pretty high, and the array is just
a lot denser. So this patch brings down memory usage by git-rev-list by
just under 3% (on top of all the other memory use optimizations) on the
mozilla archive.

It does add more lines than it removes, and more importantly, it adds a
whole new infrastructure for maintaining lists of objects, but on the
other hand, the new dynamic array code is pretty obvious. The change to
builtin-diff-tree.c shows a fairly good example of why an array interface
is sometimes more natural, and just much simpler for everybody.

cb115748ec Some more memory leak avoidance
This is really the dregs of my effort to not waste memory in git-rev-list,
and makes barely one percent of a difference in the memory footprint, but
hey, it's also a pretty small patch.

It discards the parent lists and the commit buffer after the commit has
been shown by git-rev-list (and "git log" - which already did the commit
buffer part), and frees the commit list entry that was used by the
revision walker.

The big win would be to get rid of the "refs" pointer in the object
structure (another 5%), because it's only used by fsck. That would require
some pretty major surgery to fsck, though, so I'm timid and did the less
interesting but much easier part instead.

This (percentually) makes a bigger difference to "git log" and friends,
since those are walking _just_ commits, and thus the list entries tend to
be a bigger percentage of the memory use. But the "list all objects" case
does improve too.

885a86abe2 Shrink "struct object" a bit
This shrinks "struct object" by a small amount, by getting rid of the
"struct type *" pointer and replacing it with a 3-bit bitfield instead.

In addition, we merge the bitfields and the "flags" field, which
incidentally should also remove a useless 4-byte padding from the object
when in 64-bit mode.

Now, our "struct object" is still too damn large, but it's now less
obviously bloated, and of the remaining fields, only the "util" (which is
not used by most things) is clearly something that should be eventually
discarded.

This shrinks the "git-rev-list --all" memory use by about 2.5% on the
kernel archive (and, perhaps more importantly, on the larger mozilla
archive). That may not sound like much, but I suspect it's more on a
64-bit platform.

There are other remaining inefficiencies (the parent lists, for example,
probably have horrible malloc overhead), but this was pretty obvious.

Most of the patch is just changing the comparison of the "type" pointer
from one of the constant string pointers to the appropriate new TYPE_xxx
small integer constant.

9202434cbd gitweb.cgi history not shown
This does:

 - add a "rev.simplify_history" flag which defaults to on
 - it turns it off for "git whatchanged" (which thus now has real
   semantics outside of "git log")
 - it adds a command line flag ("--full-history") to turn it off for
   others (ie you can make "git log" and "gitk" etc get the semantics if
   you want to.

Now, just as an example of _why_ you really really really want to simplify
history by default, apply this patch, install it, and try these two
command lines:

	gitk --full-history -- git.c
	gitk -- git.c

and compare the output.

So with this, you can also now do

	git whatchanged -p -- gitweb.cgi
	git log -p --full-history -- gitweb.cgi

and it will show the old history of gitweb.cgi, even though it's not
relevant to the _current_ state of the name "gitweb.cgi"

NOTE NOTE NOTE! It will still actually simplify away merges that didn't
change anything at all into either child. That creates these bogus strange
discontinuities if you look at it with "gitk" (look at the --full-history
gitk output for git.c, and you'll see a few strange cases).

So the whole "--parent" thing ends up somewhat bogus with --full-history
because of this, but I'm not sure it's worth even worrying about. I don't
think you'd ever want to really use "--full-history" with the graphical
representation, I just give it as an example exactly to show _why_ doing
so would be insane.

I think this is trivial enough and useful enough to be worth merging into
the stable branch.

4c068a9831 tree_entry(): new tree-walking helper function
This adds a "tree_entry()" function that combines the common operation of
doing a "tree_entry_extract()" + "update_tree_entry()".

It also has a simplified calling convention, designed for simple loops
that traverse over a whole tree: the arguments are pointers to the tree
descriptor and a name_entry structure to fill in, and it returns a boolean
"true" if there was an entry left to be gotten in the tree.

This allows tree traversal with

	struct tree_desc desc;
	struct name_entry entry;

	desc.buf = tree->buffer;
	desc.size = tree->size;
	while (tree_entry(&desc, &entry) {
		... use "entry.{path, sha1, mode, pathlen}" ...
	}

which is not only shorter than writing it out in full, it's hopefully less
error prone too.

[ It's actually a tad faster too - we don't need to recalculate the entry
  pathlength in both extract and update, but need to do it only once.
  Also, some callers can avoid doing a "strlen()" on the result, since
  it's returned as part of the name_entry structure.

  However, by now we're talking just 1% speedup on "git-rev-list --objects
  --all", and we're definitely at the point where tree walking is no
  longer the issue any more. ]

NOTE! Not everybody wants to use this new helper function, since some of
the tree walkers very much on purpose do the descriptor update separately
from the entry extraction. So the "extract + update" sequence still
remains as the core sequence, this is just a simplified interface.

We should probably add a silly two-line inline helper function for
initializing the descriptor from the "struct tree" too, just to cut down
on the noise from that common "desc" initializer.

2d9c58c69d Remove "tree->entries" tree-entry list from tree parser
Instead, just use the tree buffer directly, and use the tree-walk
infrastructure to walk the buffers instead of the tree-entry list.

The tree-entry list is inefficient, and generates tons of small
allocations for no good reason. The tree-walk infrastructure is
generally no harder to use than following a linked list, and allows
us to do most tree parsing in-place.

Some programs still use the old tree-entry lists, and are a bit
painful to convert without major surgery. For them we have a helper
function that creates a temporary tree-entry list on demand.

508d9e372e Fix "--abbrev=xyz" for revision listing
The revision argument parsing was happily parsing "--abbrev", but it
didn't parse "--abbrev=<n>".

Which was hidden by the fact that the diff options _would_ parse
--abbrev=<n>, so it would actually silently parse it, it just
wouldn't use it for the same things that a plain "--abbrev" was
used for.

Which seems a bit insane.

With this patch, if you do "git log --abbrev=10" it will abbreviate the
merge parent commit ID's to ten hex characters, which was probably what
you expected.

	git diff --cc v1.1.0 v1.0.0^@

to inspect what got changed from the merge parents of v1.0.0 to v1.1.0.

This might be just my shiny new toy that is not very useful in
practice.  I needed it to do the multi-tree diff on Len's
infamous 12-way Octopus; typing "diff --cc funmerge funmerge^1
funmerge^2 funmerge^3 ..." was too painful.

4262c1b0c3 Fix uninteresting tags in new revision parsing
When I unified the revision argument parsing, I introduced a simple bug
wrt tags that had been marked uninteresting. When it was preparing for the
revision walk, it would mark all the parent commits of an uninteresting
tag correctly uninteresting, but it would forget about the commit itself.

This means that when I just did my 2.6.17-rc2 release, and my scripts
generated the log for "v2.6.17-rc1..v2.6.17-rc2", everything was fine,
except the commit pointed to by 2.6.17-rc1 (which shouldn't have been
there) was included. Even though it should obviously have been marked as
being uninteresting.

Not a huge deal, and the fix is trivial.

Ok, this was nastier than expected, just because the dependencies between
the different log-printing stuff were absolutely _everywhere_, but here's
a patch that does exactly that.

The patch is not very easy to read, and the "--patch-with-stat" thing is
still broken (it does not call the "show_log()" thing properly for
merges). That's not a new bug. In the new world order it _should_ do
something like

	if (rev->logopt)
		show_log(rev, rev->logopt, "---\n");

but it doesn't. I haven't looked at the --with-stat logic, so I left it
alone.

That said, this patch removes more lines than it adds, and in particular,
the "cmd_log_wc()" loop is now a very clean:

	while ((commit = get_revision(rev)) != NULL) {
		log_tree_commit(rev, commit);
		free(commit->buffer);
		commit->buffer = NULL;
	}

so it doesn't get much prettier than this. All the complexity is entirely
hidden in log-tree.c, and any code that needs to flush the log literally
just needs to do the "if (rev->logopt) show_log(...)" incantation.

I had to make the combined_diff() logic take a "struct rev_info" instead
of just a "struct diff_options", but that part is pretty clean.

This does change "git whatchanged" from using "diff-tree" as the commit
descriptor to "commit", and I changed one of the tests to reflect that new
reality. Otherwise everything still passes, and my other tests look fine
too.

This uses the "--no-walk" flag that I never actually implemented (but I'm

It just refuses to add more interesting parents to the revision walking
history, so you don't actually get any history, you just get the commit
you asked for.

I was going to add "--no-walk" as a real argument flag to git-rev-list

6b9c58f466 Split init_revisions() out of setup_revisions()
Merging all three option parsers related to whatchanged is
unarguably the right thing, but the fallout was too big to scare
me away.  Let's try it once again, but once step at time.

This splits out init_revisions() call from setup_revisions(), so
that the callers can set different defaults to match the
traditional benaviour.

The rev-list command is still broken in a big way, which is the
topic of next step.

cd2bdc5309 Common option parsing for "git log --diff" and friends
This basically does a few things that are sadly somewhat interdependent,
and nontrivial to split out

 - get rid of "struct log_tree_opt"

   The fields in "log_tree_opt" are moved into "struct rev_info", and all
   users of log_tree_opt are changed to use the rev_info struct instead.

 - add the parsing for the log_tree_opt arguments to "setup_revision()"

 - make setup_revision set a flag (revs->diff) if the diff-related
   arguments were used. This allows "git log" to decide whether it wants
   to show diffs or not.

 - make setup_revision() also initialize the diffopt part of rev_info
   (which we had from before, but we just didn't initialize it)

 - make setup_revision() do all the "finishing touches" on it all (it will
   do the proper flag combination logic, and call "diff_setup_done()")

Now, that was the easy and straightforward part.

The slightly more involved part is that some of the programs that want to
use the new-and-improved rev_info parsing don't actually want _commits_,
they may want tree'ish arguments instead. That meant that I had to change
setup_revision() to parse the arguments not into the "revs->commits" list,
but into the "revs->pending_objects" list.

Then, when we do "prepare_revision_walk()", we walk that list, and create
the sorted commit list from there.

This actually cleaned some stuff up, but it's the less obvious part of the
patch, and re-organized the "revision.c" logic somewhat. It actually paves
the way for splitting argument parsing _entirely_ out of "revision.c",
since now the argument parsing really is totally independent of the commit
walking: that didn't use to be true, since there was lots of overlap with
get_commit_reference() handling etc, now the _only_ overlap is the shared
(and trivial) "add_pending_object()" thing.

However, I didn't do that file split, just because I wanted the diff
itself to be smaller, and show the actual changes more clearly. If this
gets accepted, I'll do further cleanups then - that includes the file
split, but also using the new infrastructure to do a nicer "git diff" etc.

Even in this form, it actually ends up removing more lines than it adds.

It's nice to note how simple and straightforward this makes the built-in
"git log" command, even though it continues to support all the diff flags
too. It doesn't get much simpler that this.

I think this is worth merging soonish, because it does allow for future
cleanup and even more sharing of code. However, it obviously touches
"revision.c", which is subtle. I've tested that it passes all the tests we
have, and it passes my "looks sane" detector, but somebody else should
also give it a good look-over.

[jc: squashed the original and three "oops this too" updates, with
 another fix-up.]

a8baa7b9f5 tree-diff: do not assume we use only one pathspec
The way tree-diff was set up assumed we would use only one set
of pathspec during the entire life of the program.  Move the
pathspec related static variables out to diff_options structure
so that we can filter commits with one set of paths while show
the actual diffs using different set of paths.

I suspect this breaks blame.c, and makes "git log paths..." to
default to the --full-diff, the latter of which is dealt with
the next commit.

3381c790e5 Make "--parents" logs also be incremental
The parent rewriting feature caused us to create the whole history in one
go, and then simplify it later, because of how rewrite_parents() had been
written. However, with a little tweaking, it's perfectly possible to do
even that one incrementally.

Right now, this doesn't really much matter, because every user of
"--parents" will probably generally _also_ use "--topo-order", which will
cause the old non-incremental behaviour anyway. However, I'm hopeful that
we could make even the topological sort incremental, or at least
_partially_ so (for example, make it incremental up to the first merge).

In the meantime, this at least moves things in the right direction, and
removes a strange special case.

be7db6e574 revision: Fix --topo-order and --max-age with reachability limiting.
What ends up not working very well at all is the combination of
"--topo-order" and the output filter in get_revision. It will
return NULL when we see the first commit out of date-order, even
if we have other commits coming.

So we really should do the "past the date order" thing in
get_revision() only if we have _not_ done it already in
limit_list().

Something like this.

The easiest way to test this is with just

	gitk --since=3.days.ago

on the kernel tree. Without this patch, it tends to be pretty obviously
broken.

2a0925be35 Make path-limiting be incremental when possible.
This makes git-rev-list able to do path-limiting without having to parse
all of history before it starts showing the results.

This makes things like "git log -- pathname" much more pleasant to use.

This is actually a pretty small patch, and the biggest part of it is
purely cleanups (turning the "goto next" statements into "continue"), but
it's conceptually a lot bigger than it looks.

What it does is that if you do a path-limited revision list, and you do
_not_ ask for pseudo-parenthood information, it won't do all the
path-limiting up-front, but instead do it incrementally in
"get_revision()".

This is an absolutely huge deal for anything like "git log -- <pathname>",
but also for some things that we don't do yet - like the "find where
things changed" logic I've described elsewhere, where we want to find the
previous revision that changed a file.

The reason I put "RFC" in the subject line is that while I've validated it
various ways, like doing

	git-rev-list HEAD -- drivers/char/ | md5sum

before-and-after on the kernel archive, it's "git-rev-list" after all. In
other words, it's that really really subtle and complex central piece of
software. So while I think this is important and should go in asap, I also
think it should get lots of testing and eyeballs looking at the code.

Btw, don't even bother testing this with the git archive. git itself is so
small that parsing the whole revision history for it takes about a second
even with path limiting. The thing that _really_ shows this off is doing

	git log drivers/

on the kernel archive, or even better, on the _historic_ kernel archive.

With this change, the response is instantaneous (although seeking to the
end of the result will obviously take as long as it ever did). Before this
change, the command would think about the result for tens of seconds - or
even minutes, in the case of the bigger old kernel archive - before
starting to output the results.

NOTE NOTE NOTE! Using path limiting with things like "gitk", which uses
the "--parents" flag to actually generate a pseudo-history of the
resulting commits won't actually see the improvement in interactivity,
since that forces git-rev-list to do the whole-history thing after all.

MAYBE we can fix that too at some point, but I won't promise anything.

384e99a4a9 rev-list --boundary
With the new --boundary flag, the output from rev-list includes

You would get something like this:

fb18a2edf7 Fix error handling for nonexistent names
When passing in a pathname pattern without the "--" separator on the
command line, we verify that the pathnames in question exist. However,
there were two bugs in that verification:

 - git-rev-parse would only check the first pathname, and silently allow
   any invalid subsequent pathname, whether it existed or not (which
   defeats the purpose of the check, and is also inconsistent with what
   git-rev-list actually does)

 - git-rev-list (and "git log" etc) would check each filename, but if the
   check failed, it would print the error using the first one, i.e.:

	[torvalds@g5 git]$ git log Makefile bad-file
	fatal: 'Makefile': No such file or directory

   instead of saying that it's 'bad-file' that doesn't exist.

This fixes both bugs.
