"git diff --merge-base X other args..." insisted that X must be a
commit and errored out when given an annotated tag that peels to a
commit, but we only need it to be a committish. This has been
corrected.
* ar/diff-index-merge-base-fix:
diff: fix --merge-base with annotated tags
|
|
Checking early for OBJ_COMMIT excludes other objects that can be
resolved to commits, like annotated tags. If we remove it, annotated
tags will be resolved and handled just fine by
lookup_commit_reference(), and if we are given something that can't be
resolved to a commit, we'll still get a useful error message, e.g.:
> error: object 21ab162211ac3ef13c37603ca88b27e9c7e0d40b is a tree, not a commit

"git diff --cached" codepath did not fill the necessary stat
information for a file when fsmonitor knows it is clean and ended
up behaving as if it is not clean, which has been corrected.
* js/diff-cached-fsmonitor-fix:
diff-lib: fix check_removed when fsmonitor is on
|
|
`git diff-index` may return incorrect deleted entries when fsmonitor
is used in a repository with git submodules. This can be observed on
Mac machines, but it can affect all other supported platforms too.
If fsmonitor is used, `stat *st` is not initialized if cache_entry has
CE_FSMONITOR_VALID set. But, there are three call sites that rely on stat
afterwards, which can result in incorrect results.
This change partially reverts commit 4f3d6d02 (fsmonitor: skip lstat
deletion check during git diff-index, 2021-03-17).

Neither of these functions ever returns a value other than zero.
Instead, they expect unrecoverable errors to exit immediately, and
things like "--exit-code" are stored inside the diff_options struct to
be handled later via diff_result_code().
Some callers do check the return values, but many don't bother. Let's
drop the useless return values, which are misleading callers about how
the functions work. This could be seen as a step in the wrong direction,
as we might want to eventually "lib-ify" these to more cleanly return
errors up the stack, in which case we'd have to add the return values
back in. But there are some benefits to doing this now:
1. In the current code, somebody could accidentally add a "return -1"
to one of the functions, which would be erroneously ignored by many
callers. By removing the return code, the compiler can notice the
mismatch and force the developer to decide what to do.
Obviously the other option here is that we could start consistently
checking the error code in every caller. But it would be dead code,
and we wouldn't get any compile-time help in catching new cases.
2. It communicates the situation to callers, who may want to choose a
different function. These functions are really thin wrappers for
doing git-diff-files and git-diff-index within the process. But
callers who care about recovering from an error here are probably
better off using the underlying library functions, many of
which do return errors.
If somebody eventually wants to teach these functions to propagate
errors, they'll have to switch back to returning a value, effectively
reverting this patch. But at least then they will be starting with a
level playing field: they know that they will need to inspect each
caller to see how it should handle the error.

Many callers of run_diff_index() passed literal "1" for the option
flag word, which should better be spelled out as DIFF_INDEX_CACHED
for readablity. Everybody else passes "0" that can stay as-is.
The other bit in the option flag word is DIFF_INDEX_MERGE_BASE, but
curiously there is only one caller that can pass it, which is "git
diff-index --merge-base" itself---no internal callers uses the
feature.
A bit tricky call to the function is in builtin/submodule--helper.c
where the .cached member in a private struct is set/reset as a plain
Boolean flag, which happens to be "1" and happens to match the value
of DIFF_INDEX_CACHED.

When `diff.ignoreSubmodules = all` is set and submodule commits are
manually staged (e.g. via `git-update-index`), `git-commit` should
record the commit with updated submodules.
`index_differs_from` is called from `prepare_to_commit` with flags set to
`override_submodule_config = 1`. `index_differs_from` then merges the
default diff flags and passed flags.
When `diff.ignoreSubmodules` is set to "all", `flags` ends up having
both `override_submodule_config` and `ignore_submodules` set to 1. This
results in `git-commit` ignoring staged commits.
This patch restores original `flags.ignore_submodule` if
`flags.override_submodule_config` is set.

Update 'do_oneway_diff()' to perform a 'diff_tree_oid()' on removed sparse
directories, as it does for added or modified sparse directories (see
9eb00af562 (diff-lib: handle index diffs with sparse dirs, 2021-07-14)).
At the moment, this update is unreachable code because 'unpack_trees()'
(currently the only way 'oneway_diff()' can be called, via 'diff_cache()')
will always traverse trees down to the individual removed files of a deleted
sparse directory. A subsequent patch will change this to better preserve a
sparse index in other uses of 'unpack_tree()', e.g. 'git reset --hard'.
However, making that change without this patch would result in (among other
issues) 'git status' printing only the name of a deleted sparse directory,
not its contents. To avoid introducing that bug, 'do_oneway_diff()' is
updated before modifying 'unpack_trees()'.

Add a TODO comment indicating that we should release "diffopt" in
release_revisions(). In a preceding commit we started releasing the
"pruning" member of the same type, but handling "diffopt" will require
us to untangle the "no_free" conditions I added in e900d494dcf (diff:
add an API for deferred freeing, 2021-02-11).
Let's leave a TODO comment to that effect, and so that we don't forget
refactor code that was changed to use release_revisions() in earlier
commits to stop using the "diffopt" member after a call to
release_revisions(). This works currently, but would become a logic
error as soon as we started freeing "diffopt". Doing that change now
doesn't harm anything, and future-proofs us against a later change to
release_revisions().

The users of the revision.[ch] API's "struct rev_info" are a major
source of memory leaks in the test suite under SANITIZE=leak, which in
turn adds a lot of noise when trying to mark up tests with
"TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK=true".
The users of that API are largely one-shot, e.g. "git rev-list" or
"git log", or the "git checkout" and "git stash" being modified here
For these callers freeing the memory is arguably a waste of time, but
in many cases they've actually been trying to free the memory, and
just doing that in a buggy manner.
Let's provide a release_revisions() function for these users, and
start migrating them over per the plan outlined in [1]. Right now this
only handles the "pending" member of the struct, but more will be
added in subsequent commits.
Even though we only clear the "pending" member now, let's not leave a
trap in code like the pre-image of index_differs_from(), where we'd
start doing the wrong thing as soon as the release_revisions() learned
to clear its "diffopt". I.e. we need to call release_revisions() after
we've inspected any state in "struct rev_info".
This leaves in place e.g. clear_pathspec(&rev.prune_data) in
stash_working_tree() in builtin/stash.c, subsequent commits will teach
release_revisions() to free "prune_data" and other members that in
some cases are individually cleared by users of "struct rev_info" by
reaching into its members. Those subsequent commits will remove the
relevant calls to e.g. clear_pathspec().
We avoid amending code in index_differs_from() in diff-lib.c as well
as wt_status_collect_changes_index(), has_unstaged_changes() and
has_uncommitted_changes() in wt-status.c in a way that assumes that we
are already clearing the "diffopt" member. That will be handled in a
subsequent commit.

"git diff --relative" segfaulted and/or produced incorrect result
when there are unmerged paths.
* dd/diff-files-unmerged-fix:
diff-lib: ignore paths that are outside $cwd if --relative asked
|
|
For diff family commands, we can tell them to exclude changes outside
of some directories if --relative is requested.
In diff_unmerge(), NULL will be returned if the requested path is
outside of the interesting directories, thus we'll run into NULL
pointer dereference in run_diff_files when trying to dereference
its return value.
Checking for return value of diff_unmerge before dereferencing
is not sufficient, though. Since, diff engine will try to work on such
pathspec later.
Let's not run diff on those unintesting entries, instead.
As a side effect, by skipping like that, we can save some CPU cycles.

While comparing an index to a tree, we may see a sparse directory entry.
In this case, we should compare that portion of the tree to the tree
represented by that entry. This could include a new tree which needs to
be expanded to a full list of added files. It could also include an
existing tree, in which case all of the changes inside are important to
describe, including the modifications, additions, and deletions. Note
that the case where the tree has a path and the index does not remains
identical to before: the lack of a cache entry is the same with a sparse
index.
Use diff_tree_oid() appropriately to compute the diff.

Without this bug fix, t7519's four "status doesn't detect unreported
modifications" test cases would fail occasionally (and, oddly enough,
*a lot* more frequently on Windows).
The reason is that these test cases intentionally use the side effect of
`git status` to re-write the index if any updates were detected: they
first clean the worktree, run `git status` to update the index as well
as show the output to the casual reader, then make the worktree dirty
again and expect no changes to reported if running with a mocked
fsmonitor hook.
The problem with this strategy was that the index was written during
said `git status` on the clean worktree for the *wrong* reason: not
because the index was marked as changed (it wasn't), but because the
recorded mtimes were racy with the index' own mtime.
As the mtime granularity on Windows is 100 nanoseconds (see e.g.
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/desktop/SysInfo/file-times),
the mtimes of the files are often enough *not* racy with the index', so
that that `git status` call currently does not always update the index
(including the fsmonitor extension), causing the test case to fail.
The obvious fix: if we change *any* index entry's `CE_FSMONITOR_VALID`
flag, we should also mark the index as changed. That will cause the
index to be written upon `git status`, *including* an updated fsmonitor
extension.
Side note: Even though the reader might think that the t7519 issue
should be *much* more prevalent on Linux, given that the ext4 filesystem
(that seems to be used by every Linux distribution) stores mtimes in
nanosecond precision. However, ext4 uses `current_kernel_time()` (see
https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/11599#comment762968_11599; it
is *amazingly* hard to find any proper source of information about such
ext4 questions) whose accuracy seems to depend on many factors but is
safely worse than the 100-nanosecond granularity of NTFS (again, it is
*horribly* hard to find anything remotely authoritative about this
question). So it seems that the racy index condition that hid the bug
fixed by this patch simply is a lot more likely on Linux than on
Windows. But not impossible ;-)

The sole purpose of this function is to fix the sorting order of the
queued diff entries. It doesn't need to know about any diff options, so
we can drop the unused parameter.

Various codepaths in the core-ish part learn to work on an
