Matthieu Moy 3deffc52d8 reset: make the reminder output consistent with "checkout"
git reset without argument displays a summary of the local modification,
like this:

    $ git reset
    Makefile: locally modified

Some people have problems with this; they look like an error message.

This patch makes its output mimic how "git checkout $another_branch"
reports the paths with local modifications.  "git add --refresh --verbose"
is changed in the same way.

It also adds a header to make it clear that the output is informative,
and not an error.

Matthieu Moy 43673fddd3 Rename REFRESH_SAY_CHANGED to REFRESH_IN_PORCELAIN.
The change in the output is going to become more general than just saying
"changed", so let's make the variable name more general too.

Thomas Rast 0721c314a5 Use die_errno() instead of die() when checking syscalls
Lots of die() calls did not actually report the kind of error, which
can leave the user confused as to the real problem.  Use die_errno()
where we check a system/library call that sets errno on failure, or
one of the following that wrap such calls:

Kjetil Barvik 5bcf109cdf checkout bugfix: use stat.mtime instead of stat.ctime in two places
Commit e1afca4fd "write_index(): update index_state->timestamp after
flushing to disk" on 2009-02-23 used stat.ctime to record the
timestamp of the index-file.  This is wrong, so fix this and use the
correct stat.mtime timestamp instead.

Commit 110c46a909 "Not all systems use st_[cm]tim field for ns
resolution file timestamp" on 2009-03-08, has a similar bug for the
builtin-fetch-pack.c file.

Junio C Hamano 110c46a909 Not all systems use st_[cm]tim field for ns resolution file timestamp
Some codepaths do not still use the ST_[CM]TIME_NSEC() pair of macros
introduced by the previous commit but assumes all systems use st_mtim
and st_ctim fields in "struct stat" to record nanosecond resolution part
of the file timestamps.

Kjetil Barvik c06ff4908b Record ns-timestamps if possible, but do not use it without USE_NSEC
Traditionally, the lack of USE_NSEC meant "do not record nor use the
nanosecond resolution part of the file timestamps".  To avoid problems on
filesystems that lose the ns part when the metadata is flushed to the disk
and then later read back in, disabling USE_NSEC has been a good idea in
general.

If you are on a filesystem without such an issue, it does not hurt to read
and store them in the cached stat data in the index entries even if your
git is compiled without USE_NSEC.  The index left with such a version of
git can be read by git compiled with USE_NSEC and it can make use of the
nanosecond part to optimize the check to see if the path on the filesystem
hsa been modified since we last looked at.

Kjetil Barvik e1afca4fd3 write_index(): update index_state->timestamp after flushing to disk
Since this timestamp is used to check for racy-clean files, it is
important to keep it uptodate.

For the 'git checkout' command without the '-q' option, this make a
huge difference.  Before, each and every file which was updated, was
racy-clean after the call to unpack_trees() and write_index() but
before the GIT process ended.

And because of the call to show_local_changes() in builtin-checkout.c,
we ended up reading those files back into memory, doing a SHA1 to
check if the files was really different from the index.  And, of
course, no file was different.

With this fix, 'git checkout' without the '-q' option should now be
almost as fast as with the '-q' option, but not quite, as we still do
some few lstat(2) calls more without the '-q' option.

Below is some average numbers for 10 checkout's to v2.6.27 and 10 to
v2.6.25 of the Linux kernel, to show the difference:

before (git version 1.6.2.rc1.256.g58a87):
 7.860 user  2.427 sys  19.465 real  52.8% CPU  faults: 0 major 95331 minor
after:
 6.184 user  2.160 sys  17.619 real  47.4% CPU  faults: 0 major 38994 minor

Kjetil Barvik fba2f38a2c make USE_NSEC work as expected
Since the filesystem ext4 is now defined as stable in Linux v2.6.28,
and ext4 supports nanonsecond resolution timestamps natively, it is
time to make USE_NSEC work as expected.

This will make racy git situations less likely to happen.  For 'git
checkout' this means it will be less likely that we have to open, read
the contents of the file into RAM, and check if file is really
modified or not.  The result sould be a litle less used CPU time, less
pagefaults and a litle faster program, at least for 'git checkout'.

Since the number of possible racy git situations would increase when
disks gets faster, this patch would be more and more helpfull as times
go by.  For a fast Solid State Disk, this patch should be helpfull.

Note that, when file operations starts to take less than 1 nanosecond,
one would again start to get more racy git situations.

Notice the memmove line, where the CPU did 7710 / 277 = 27.8 cycles
per instruction, and compared to the total cycles spent inside the
source code of GIT for this command, all the memmove() calls
translates to (7710 * 100) / 14775 = 52.2% of this.

Retesting with a GIT program compiled for gcov usage, I found out that
the memmove() calls came from remove_index_entry_at() in read-cache.c,
where we have:

        memmove(istate->cache + pos,
                istate->cache + pos + 1,
                (istate->cache_nr - pos) * sizeof(struct cache_entry *));

remove_index_entry_at() is called 4902 times from check_updates() in
unpack-trees.c, and each time called we move each cache_entry pointers
(from the removed one) one step to the left.

Since we have 28828 entries in the cache this time, and if we on
average move half of them each time, we in total move approximately
4902 * 0.5 * 28828 * 4 = 282 629 712 bytes, or twice this amount if
each pointer is 8 bytes (64 bit).

OK, is seems that the function check_updates() is called 28 times, so
the estimated guess above had been more correct if check_updates() had
been called only once, but the point is: we get lots of bytes moved.

To fix this, and use an O(N) algorithm instead, where N is the number
of cache_entries, we delete/remove all entries in one loop through all
entries.

From a retest, the new remove_marked_cache_entries() from the patch
below, ended up with the following output line from oprofile:

46        0.0105  15        0.0041  git                      remove_marked_cache_entries

If we can trust the numbers from oprofile in this case, we saved
approximately ((7710 - 46) * 20000) / (2 * 1000 * 1000 * 1000) = 0.077
seconds CPU time with this fix for this particular test.  And notice
that now the CPU did only 46 / 15 = 3.1 cycles/instruction.

Junio C Hamano 388b2acd6e git add --intent-to-add: fix removal of cached emptiness
This uses the extended index flag mechanism introduced earlier to mark
the entries added to the index via "git add -N" with CE_INTENT_TO_ADD.

The logic to detect an "intent to add" entry for the purpose of allowing
"git rm --cached $path" is tightened to check not just for a staged empty
blob, but with the CE_INTENT_TO_ADD bit.  This protects an empty blob that
was explicitly added and then modified in the work tree from being dropped
with this sequence:

	$ >empty
	$ git add empty
	$ echo "non empty" >empty
	$ git rm --cached empty

Junio C Hamano fa7b3c2f75 checkout: Fix "initial checkout" detection
Earlier commit 5521883 (checkout: do not lose staged removal, 2008-09-07)
tightened the rule to prevent switching branches from losing local
changes, so that staged removal of paths can be protected, while
attempting to keep a loophole to still allow a special case of switching
out of an un-checked-out state.

However, the loophole was made a bit too tight, and did not allow
switching from one branch (in an un-checked-out state) to check out
another branch.

The change to builtin-checkout.c in this commit loosens it to allow this,
by not insisting the original commit and the new commit to be the same.

It also introduces a new function, is_index_unborn (and an associated
macro, is_cache_unborn), to check if the repository is truly in an
un-checked-out state more reliably, by making sure that $GIT_INDEX_FILE
did not exist when populating the in-core index structure.  A few places
the earlier commit 5521883 added the check for the initial checkout
condition are updated to use this function.

Jeff King f55527f802 rm: loosen safety valve for empty files
If a file is different between the working tree copy, the index, and the
HEAD, then we do not allow it to be deleted without --force.

However, this is overly tight in the face of "git add --intent-to-add":

  $ git add --intent-to-add file
  $ : oops, I don't actually want to stage that yet
  $ git rm --cached file
  error: 'empty' has staged content different from both the
  file and the HEAD (use -f to force removal)
  $ git rm -f --cached file

Unfortunately, there is currently no way to distinguish between an empty
file that has been added and an "intent to add" file. The ideal behavior
would be to disallow the former while allowing the latter.

This patch loosens the safety valve to allow the deletion only if we are
deleting the cached entry and the cached content is empty.  This covers
the intent-to-add situation, and assumes there is little harm in not
protecting users who have legitimately added an empty file.  In many
cases, the file will still be empty, in which case the safety valve does
not trigger anyway (since the content remains untouched in the working
tree). Otherwise, we do remove the fact that no content was staged, but
given that the content is by definition empty, it is not terribly
difficult for a user to recreate it.

However, we still document the desired behavior in the form of two
tests. One checks the correct removal of an intent-to-add file. The other
checks that we still disallow removal of empty files, but is marked as
expect_failure to indicate this compromise. If the intent-to-add feature
is ever extended to differentiate between normal empty files and
intent-to-add files, then the safety valve can be re-tightened.

Jeff King 98fa473887 refactor handling of "other" files in ls-files and status
When the "git status" display code was originally converted
to C, we copied the code from ls-files to discover whether a
pathname returned by read_directory was an "other", or
untracked, file.

Much later, 5698454e updated the code in ls-files to handle
some new cases caused by gitlinks.  This left the code in
wt-status.c broken: it would display submodule directories
as untracked directories. Nobody noticed until now, however,
because unless status.showUntrackedFiles was set to "all",
submodule directories were not actually reported by
read_directory. So the bug was only triggered in the
presence of a submodule _and_ this config option.

This patch pulls the ls-files code into a new function,
cache_name_is_other, and uses it in both places. This should
leave the ls-files functionality the same and fix the bug
in status.

Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy 06aaaa0bf7 Extend index to save more flags
The on-disk format of index only saves 16 bit flags, nearly all have
been used. The last bit (CE_EXTENDED) is used to for future extension.

This patch extends index entry format to save more flags in future.
The new entry format will be used when CE_EXTENDED bit is 1.

Because older implementation may not understand CE_EXTENDED bit and
misread the new format, if there is any extended entry in index, index
header version will turn 3, which makes it incompatible for older git.
If there is none, header version will return to 2 again.

Brandon Casey f285a2d7ed Replace calls to strbuf_init(&foo, 0) with STRBUF_INIT initializer
Many call sites use strbuf_init(&foo, 0) to initialize local
strbuf variable "foo" which has not been accessed since its
declaration. These can be replaced with a static initialization
using the STRBUF_INIT macro which is just as readable, saves a
function call, and takes up fewer lines.

Dmitry Potapov 7e7abea96b print an error message for invalid path
If verification of path failed, it is always better to print an
error message saying this than relying on the caller function to
print a meaningful error message (especially when the callee already
prints error message for another situation).

Because the callers of add_index_entry_with_check() did not print
any error message, it resulted that the user would not notice the
problem when checkout of an invalid path failed.

On ARM I have the following compilation errors:

    CC fast-import.o
In file included from cache.h:8,
                 from builtin.h:6,
                 from fast-import.c:142:

/usr/include/openssl/sha.h:117: error: previous declaration of 'SHA1_Final' was here
make: *** [fast-import.o] Error 1

This is because openssl header files are always included in
git-compat-util.h since commit 684ec6c63c whenever NO_OPENSSL is not
set, which somehow brings in <openssl/sha1.h> clashing with the custom
ARM version.  Compilation of git is probably broken on PPC too for the
same reason.

Turns out that the only file requiring openssl/ssl.h and openssl/err.h
is imap-send.c.  But only moving those problematic includes there
doesn't solve the issue as it also includes cache.h which brings in the
conflicting local SHA1 header file.

As suggested by Jeff King, the best solution is to rename our references
to SHA1 functions and structure to something git specific, and define those
according to the implementation used.

This adds "--intent-to-add" option to "git add".  This is to let the
system know that you will tell it the final contents to be staged later,
iow, just be aware of the presense of the path with the type of the blob
for now.  It is implemented by staging an empty blob as the content.

With this sequence:

    $ git reset --hard
    $ edit newfile
    $ git add -N newfile
    $ edit newfile oldfile
    $ git diff

the diff will show all changes relative to the current commit.  Then you
can do:

    $ git commit -a ;# commit everything

or

    $ git commit oldfile ;# only oldfile, newfile not yet added

to pretend you are working with an index-free system like CVS.

Junio C Hamano 913e0e99b6 unpack_trees(): protect the handcrafted in-core index from read_cache()
unpack_trees() rebuilds the in-core index from scratch by allocating a new
structure and finishing it off by copying the built one to the final
index.

The resulting in-core index is Ok for most use, but read_cache() does not
recognize it as such.  The function is meant to be no-op if you already
have loaded the index, until you call discard_cache().

This change the way read_cache() detects an already initialized in-core
index, by introducing an extra bit, and marks the handcrafted in-core
index as initialized, to avoid this problem.

A better fix in the longer term would be to change the read_cache() API so
that it will always discard and re-read from the on-disk index to avoid
confusion.  But there are higher level API that have relied on the current
semantics, and they and their users all need to get converted, which is
outside the scope of 'maint' track.

An example of such a higher level API is write_cache_as_tree(), which is
used by git-write-tree as well as later Porcelains like git-merge, revert
and cherry-pick.  In the longer term, we should remove read_cache() from
there and add one to cmd_write_tree(); other callers expect that the
in-core index they prepared is what gets written as a tree so no other
change is necessary for this particular codepath.

The original version of this patch marked the index by pointing an
otherwise wasted malloc'ed memory with o->result.alloc, but this version
uses Linus's idea to use a new "initialized" bit, which is conceptually
much cleaner.

We do not have any more bits in the on-disk index flags word, but we would
need to have more in the future.  Use the last remaining bits as a signal

Junio C Hamano c70115b4b1 Teach gitlinks to ie_modified() and ce_modified_check_fs()
The ie_modified() function is the workhorse for refresh_cache_entry(),
i.e. checking if an index entry that is stat-dirty actually has changes.

After running quicker check to compare cached stat information with
results from the latest lstat(2) to answer "has modification" early, the
code goes on to check if there really is a change by comparing the staged
data with what is on the filesystem by asking ce_modified_check_fs().
However, this function always said "no change" for any gitlinks that has a
directory at the corresponding path.  This made ie_modified() to miss
actual changes in the subproject.

The patch fixes this first by modifying an existing short-circuit logic
before calling the ce_modified_check_fs() function.  It knows that for any
filesystem entity to which ie_match_stat() says its data has changed, if
its cached size is nonzero then the contents cannot match, which is a
correct optimization only for blob objects.  We teach gitlink objects to
this special case, as we already know that any gitlink that
ie_match_stat() says is modified is indeed modified at this point in the
codepath.

With the above change, we could leave ce_modified_check_fs() broken, but
it also futureproofs the code by teaching it to use ce_compare_gitlink(),
instead of assuming (incorrectly) that any directory is unchanged.

Petr Baudis 81dc2307d0 git-mv: Keep moved index entries inact
The rewrite of git-mv from a shell script to a builtin was perhaps
a little too straightforward: the git add and git rm queues were
emulated directly, which resulted in a rather complicated code and
caused an inconsistent behaviour when moving dirty index entries;
git mv would update the entry based on working tree state,
except in case of overwrites, where the new entry would still have
sha1 of the old file.

This patch introduces rename_index_entry_at() into the index toolkit,
which will rename an entry while removing any entries the new entry
might render duplicate. This is then used in git mv instead
of all the file queues, resulting in a major simplification
of the code and an inevitable change in git mv -n output format.

Also the code used to refuse renaming overwriting symlink with a regular
file and vice versa; there is no need for that.

A few new tests have been added to the testsuite to reflect this change.

Junio C Hamano d14e7407b3 "needs update" considered harmful
"git update-index --refresh", "git reset" and "git add --refresh" have
reported paths that have local modifications as "needs update" since the
beginning of git.

Although this is logically correct in that you need to update the index at
that path before you can commit that change, it is now becoming more and
more clear, especially with the continuous push for user friendliness
since 1.5.0 series, that the message is suboptimal.  After all, the change
may be something the user might want to get rid of, and "updating" would
be absolutely a wrong thing to do if that is the case.

I prepared two alternatives to solve this.  Both aim to reword the message
to more neutral "locally modified".

This patch is a more intrusive variant that changes the message for only
Porcelain commands ("add" and "reset") while keeping the plumbing
"update-index" intact.

We use size=0 as the magic token to say the entry is known to be racily
clean, but a sequence that does:

 - update the path with a non-empty blob and write the index;
 - update an unrelated path and write the index -- this smudges
   the above entry;
 - truncate the path to size zero.

would make both the size field for the path in the index and the size on
the filesystem zero.  We should not mistake it as a clean index entry.
