RelNotes-1.5.3.5: describe recent fixes
merge-recursive.c: mrtree in merge() is not used before set
sha1_file.c: avoid gcc signed overflow warnings
Fix a small memory leak in builtin-add
honor the http.sslVerify option in shell scripts
|
|
The called function merge_trees() sets its *result, to which the
address of the variable mrtree in merge() function is passed,
only when index_only is set. But that is Ok as the function
uses the value in the variable only under index_only iteration.
However, recent gcc does not realize this. Work it around by
adding a fake initializer.

It might be a sign of source code management gone bad, but when two branches
has diverged almost beyond recognition and time has come for the branches to
merge, the user is going to need all the help his tool can give him. Honoring
diff.renamelimit has great potential as a painkiller in such situations.
The painkiller effect could have been achieved by e.g. 'merge.renamelimit',
but the flexibility gained by a separate option is questionable: our user
would probably expect git to detect renames equally good when merging as
when diffing (I known I did).

* drop nfasprintf.
* move nfvasprintf into imap-send.c back, and let it work on a 8k buffer,
and die() in case of overflow. It should be enough for imap commands, if
someone cares about imap-send, he's welcomed to fix it properly.
* replace nfvasprintf use in merge-recursive with a copy of the strbuf_addf
logic, it's one place, we'll live with it.
To ease the change, output_buffer string list is replaced with a strbuf ;)
* rework trace.c to call vsnprintf itself. It's used to format strerror()s
and git command names, it should never be more than a few octets long, let
it work on a 8k static buffer with vsnprintf or die loudly.

When you try to merge a path that involves binary file-level
merge, merge-recursive died rudely without cleaning up its own
mess. A files added by the merge were left in the working tree,
but the index was not written out (because it just punted and
died), so it was cumbersome for the user to retry it by first
running "git reset --hard".
This changes merge-recursive to still warn but do the "binary"
merge for such a path; leave the "our" version in the working
tree, but still keep the path unmerged so that the user can sort
it out.

This doesn't actually change any real code, but it changes the interface
to unpack_trees() to take an array of "struct tree_desc" entries, the same
way the tree-walk.c functions do.
The reason for this is that we would be much better off if we can do the
tree-unpacking using the generic "traverse_trees()" functionality instead
of having to the special "unpack" infrastructure.
This really is a pretty minimal diff, just to change the calling
convention. It passes all the tests, and looks sane. There were only two
users of "unpack_trees()": builtin-read-tree and merge-recursive, and I
tried to keep the changes minimal.

The mess known as the progress meter in merge-recursive was my own
fault; I put it in thinking that we might be spending a lot of time
resolving unmerged entries in the index that were not handled by
the simple 3-way index merge code.
Turns out we don't really spend that much time there, so the progress
meter was pretty much always jumping to "(n/n) 100%" as soon as
the program started. That isn't a very good indication of progress.
Since I don't have a great solution for how a progress meter should
work here, I'm proposing we back it out entirely.

Alex Riesen noticed that the case where a file replaced a directory entry
in the working tree was broken on cygwin. It turns out that the code made
some Linux-specific assumptions, and also ignored errors entirely for the
case where the entry was a symlink rather than a file.
This cleans it up by separating out the common case into a function of its
own, so that both regular files and symlinks can share it, and by making
the error handling more obvious (and not depend on any Linux-specific
behaviour).

It was bothering me a lot that I abused small integer values
casted to (void *) to represent non string values in
gitattributes. This corrects it by making the type of attribute
values (const char *), and using the address of a few statically
allocated character buffer to denote true/false. Unset attributes
are represented as having NULLs as their values.
Added in-header documentation to explain how git_checkattr()
routine should be called.

This changes the configuration syntax for defining a low-level
merge driver to be:
[merge "<<drivername>>"]
driver = "<<command line>>"
name = "<<driver description>>"
which is much nicer to read and is extensible. Credit goes to
Martin Waitz and Linus.
In addition, when we use an external low-level merge driver, it
is reported as an extra output from merge-recursive, using the
value of merge.<<drivername>.name variable.

When no 'merge' attribute is given to a path, merge-recursive

This allows users to specify custom low-level merge driver per
path, using the attributes mechanism. Just like you can specify
one of built-in "text", "binary", "union" low-level merge
drivers by saying:
* merge=text
.gitignore merge=union
*.jpg merge=binary
pick a name of your favorite merge driver, and assign it as the
value of the 'merge' attribute.
A custom low-level merge driver is defined via the config
mechanism. This patch introduces 'merge.driver', a multi-valued
configuration. Its value is the name (i.e. the one you use as
the value of 'merge' attribute) followed by a command line
specification. The command line can contain %O, %A, and %B to
be interpolated with the names of temporary files that hold the
common ancestor version, the version from your branch, and the
version from the other branch, and the resulting command is
spawned.
The low-level merge driver is expected to update the temporary
file for your branch (i.e. %A) with the result and exit with
status 0 for a clean merge, and non-zero status for a conflicted
merge.
A new test in t6026 demonstrates a sample usage.

This allows 'merge' attribute to control how the file-level
three-way merge is done per path.
- If you set 'merge' to true, leave it unspecified, or set it
to "text", we use the built-in 3-way xdl-merge.
- If you set 'merge' to false, or set it to "binary, the
"binary" merge is done. The merge result is the blob from
'our' tree, but this still leaves the path conflicted, so
that the mess can be sorted out by the user. This is
obviously meant to be useful for binary files.
- 'merge=union' (this is the first example of a string valued
attribute, introduced in the previous one) uses the "union"
merge. The "union" merge takes lines in conflicted hunks
from both sides, which is useful for line-oriented files such
as .gitignore.
Instead fo setting merge to 'true' or 'false' by using 'merge'
or '-merge', setting it explicitly to "text" or "binary" will
become useful once we start allowing custom per-path backends to
be added, and allow them to be activated for the default
(i.e. 'merge' attribute specified to 'true' or 'false') case,
using some other mechanisms. Setting merge attribute to "text"
or "binary" will be a way to explicitly request to override such
a custom default for selected paths.
Currently there is no way to specify random programs but it
should be trivial for motivated contributors to add later.
There is one caveat, though. ll_merge() is called for both
internal ancestor merge and the outer "final" merge. I think an
interactive custom per-path merge backend should refrain from
going interactive when performing an internal merge (you can
tell it by checking call_depth) and instead just call either
ll_xdl_merge() if the content is text, or call ll_binary_merge()
otherwise.

When a path D that originally was blob in the ancestor was
modified on our branch while it was removed on the other branch,
we keep stages 1 and 2, and leave our version in the working
tree. If the other branch created a path D/F, however, that
path can cleanly be resolved in the index (after all, the
ancestor nor we do not have it and only the other side added),
but it cannot be checked out. The issue is the same when the
other branch had D and we had renamed it to D/F, or the ancestor
had D/F instead of D (so there are four combinations).
Do not stop the merge, but leave both D and D/F paths in the
index so that the user can clear things up.

When update-trees::threeway_merge() decides that a path that
exists in the current index (and HEAD) is to be removed, it
leaves a stage 0 entry whose mode bits are set to 0. The code
mistook it as "this stage wants the blob here", and proceeded
to call update_file_flags() which ended up trying to put the
mode=0 entry in the index, got very confused, and ended up
barfing with "do not know what to do with 000000".
Since threeway_merge() does not handle case #10 (one side
removes while the other side does not do anything), this is not
a problem while we refuse to merge branches that have D/F
conflicts, but when we start resolving them, we would need to be
able to remove cache entries, and at that point it starts to
matter.

This merge strategy largely piggy-backs on git-merge-recursive.
When merging trees A and B, if B corresponds to a subtree of A,
B is first adjusted to match the tree structure of A, instead of
reading the trees at the same level. This adjustment is also
done to the common ancestor tree.
If you are pulling updates from git-gui repository into git.git
repository, the root level of the former corresponds to git-gui/
subdirectory of the latter. The tree object of git-gui's toplevel
is wrapped in a fake tree object, whose sole entry has name 'git-gui'
and records object name of the true tree, before being used by
the 3-way merge code.
If you are merging the other way, only the git-gui/ subtree of
git.git is extracted and merged into git-gui's toplevel.
The detection of corresponding subtree is done by comparing the
pathnames and types in the toplevel of the tree.
Heuristics galore! That's the git way ;-).

When defined, this allows plumbing commands that update the
index (add, apply, checkout-index, merge-recursive, mv,
read-tree, rm, update-index, and write-tree) to write their
resulting index to an alternative index file while holding a
lock to the original index file. With this, git-commit that
jumps the index does not have to make an extra copy of the index
file, and more importantly, it can do the update while holding
the lock on the index.
However, I think the interface to let an environment variable
specify the output is a mistake, as shown in the documentation.
If a curious user has the environment variable set to something
other than the file GIT_INDEX_FILE points at, almost everything
will break. This should instead be a command line parameter to
tell these plumbing commands to write the result in the named
file, to prevent stupid mistakes.

We currently have two parallel notation for dealing with object types

redundent, and the most used one requires more stack space and a bunch

git-merge-recursive wants an null tree as the fake merge base
while producing the merge result tree. The null tree does not
have to be written out in the object store as it won't be part
of the result, and it is a prime example for using the new
pretend_sha1_file() function.
git-blame needs to register an arbitrary data to in-core index
while annotating a working tree file (or standard input), but
git-blame is a read-only application and the user of it could
even lack the privilege to write into the object store; it is
another good example for pretend_sha1_file().

My earlier fix (8371234e) to delete renamed tracked files from the
working directory also caused merge-recursive to delete untracked
files that were in the working directory.
The problem here is merge-recursive is deleting the working directory
file without regard for which branch it was associated with. What we
really want to do during a merge is to only delete files that were
renamed by the branch we are merging into the current branch,
and that are still tracked by the current branch. These files
definitely don't belong in the working directory anymore.
Anything else is either a merge conflict (already handled in other
parts of the code) or a file that is untracked by the current branch
and thus is not even participating in the merge. Its this latter
class that must be left alone.
For this fix to work we are now assuming that the first non-base
argument passed to git-merge-recursive always corresponds to the
working directory. This is already true for all in-tree callers
of merge-recursive. This assumption is also supported by the
long time usage message of "<base> ... -- <head> <remote>", where
"<head>" is implied to be HEAD, which is generally assumed to be
the current tree-ish.

Because large merges on slow systems can take up to a minute to
execute we should try to keep the user entertained with a progress
meter to let them know how far we have progressed through the
current merge.
The progress meter considers each entry in the in-memory index to
be a unit, which means a single recursive merge will double the
number of units in the progress meter. Files which are unmerged
after the 3-way tree merge are also considered a unit within the
progress meter.

Buffering all message output until a merge invocation is complete is
necessary to prevent intereferring with a progress meter that would
indicate the number of files completely merged, and how many remain.
This change does not introduce a progress meter, but merely lays
the groundwork to buffer the output.
To aid debugging output buffering is only enabled if verbosity
is lower than 5. When using verbosity levels above 5 the user is
probably debugging the merge program itself and does not want to
see the output delayed, especially if they are stepping through
portions of the code in a debugger.
