2014-01-17diff_filespec: reorder dirty_submodule macro definitionsJeff King1-1/+1
diff_filespec has a 2-bit "dirty_submodule" field and defines two flags as macros. Originally these were right next to each other, but a new field was accidentally added in between in commit 4682d85. This patch puts the field and its flags back together. Using an enum like: enum { DIRTY_SUBMODULE_UNTRACKED = 1, DIRTY_SUBMODULE_MODIFIED = 2 } dirty_submodule; would be more obvious, but it bloats the structure. Limiting the enum size like: } dirty_submodule : 2; might work, but it is not portable. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2014-01-10mv: let 'git mv file no-such-dir/' error out on Windows, tooJohannes Sixt1-0/+2
The previous commit c57f628 (mv: let 'git mv file no-such-dir/' error out) relies on that rename("file", "no-such-dir/") fails if the directory does not exist (note the trailing slash). This does not work as expected on Windows: This rename() call does not fail, but renames "file" to "no-such-dir" (not to "no-such-dir/file"). Insert an explicit check for this case to force an error. This changes the error message from $ git mv file no-such-dir/ fatal: renaming 'file' failed: Not a directory to $ git mv file no-such-dir/ fatal: destination directory does not exist, source=file, destination=no-such-dir/ Signed-off-by: Johannes Sixt <j6t@kdbg.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2014-01-03gc: notice gc processes run by other usersKyle J. McKay1-1/+1
Since 64a99eb4 git gc refuses to run without the --force option if another gc process on the same repository is already running. However, if the repository is shared and user A runs git gc on the repository and while that gc is still running user B runs git gc on the same repository the gc process run by user A will not be noticed and the gc run by user B will go ahead and run. The problem is that the kill(pid, 0) test fails with an EPERM error since user B is not allowed to signal processes owned by user A (unless user B is root). Update the test to recognize an EPERM error as meaning the process exists and another gc should not be run (unless --force is given). Signed-off-by: Kyle J.

2014-01-02Revert "prompt: clean up strbuf usage"Jeff King1-1/+2
This reverts commit 31b49d9b653803e7c7fd18b21c8bdd86e3421668. That commit taught do_askpass to hand ownership of our buffer back to the caller rather than simply return a pointer into our internal strbuf. What it failed to notice, though, was that our internal strbuf is static, because we are trying to emulate the getpass() interface. By handing off ownership, we created a memory leak that cannot be solved. Sometimes git_prompt returns a static buffer from getpass() (or our smarter git_terminal_prompt wrapper), and sometimes it returns an allocated string from do_askpass.

2013-12-12cat-file: handle --batch format with missing type/sizeJeff King2-1/+32
Commit 98e2092 taught cat-file to stream blobs with --batch, which requires that we look up the object type before loading it into memory. As a result, we now print the object header from information in sha1_object_info, and the actual contents from the read_sha1_file. We double-check that the information we printed in the header matches the content we are about to show. Later, commit 93d2a60 allowed custom header lines for --batch, and commit 5b08640 made type lookups optional. As a result, specifying a header line without the type or size means that we will not look up those items at all. This causes our double-checking to erroneously die with an error; we think the type or size has changed, when in fact it was simply left at "0". For the size, we can fix this by only doing the consistency double-check when we have retrieved the size via sha1_object_info. In the case that we have not retrieved the value, that means we also did not print it, so there is nothing for us to check that we are consistent with. We could do the same for the type. However, besides our consistency check, we also care about the type in deciding whether to stream or not. So instead of handling the case where we do not know the type, this patch instead makes sure that we always trigger a type lookup when we are printing, so that even a format without the type will stream as we would in the normal case.

2013-12-12cat-file: pass expand_data to print_object_or_dieJeff King1-10/+11
We currently individually pass the sha1, type, and size fields calculated by sha1_object_info. However, if we pass the whole struct, the called function can make more intelligent decisions about which fields were actually filled by sha1_object_info. This patch takes that first refactoring step, passing the whole struct, so further patches can make those decisions with less noise in their diffs. There should be no functional change to this patch (aside from a minor typo fix in the error message). As a side effect, we can rename the local variables in the function to "type" and "size", since the names are no longer taken.

2013-12-09rev-parse: be more careful with munging argumentsJeff King1-1/+5
When rev-parse looks at whether an argument like "foo..bar" or "foobar^@" is a difference or parent-shorthand, it internally munges the arguments so that it can pass the individual rev arguments to get_sha1(). However, we do not consistently un-munge the result. For cases where we do not match (e.g., "doesnotexist..HEAD"), we would then want to try to treat the argument as a filename. try_difference gets() this right, and always unmunges in this case. However, try_parent_shorthand() never unmunges, leading to incorrect error messages, or even incorrect results: $ git rev-parse foobar^@ foobar fatal: ambiguous argument 'foobar': unknown revision or path not in the working tree. Use '--' to separate paths from revisions, like this: 'git <command> [<revision>...] -- [<file>...]' $ >foobar $ git rev-parse foobar^@ foobar For cases where we do match, neither function unmunges. This does not currently matter, since we are done with the argument. However, a future patch will do further processing, and this prepares for it. In addition, it's simply a confusing interface for some cases to modify the const argument, and others not to.

2013-12-09rev-parse: correctly diagnose revision errors before "--"Jeff King2-0/+34
Rev-parse understands that a "--" may separate revisions and filenames, and that anything after the "--" is taken as-is. However, it does not understand that anything before the token must be a revision (which is the usual rule implemented by the setup_revisions parser). Since rev-parse prefers revisions to files when parsing before the "--", we end up with the correct result (if such an argument is a revision, we parse it as one, and if it is not, it is an error either way). However, we misdiagnose the errors: $ git rev-parse foobar -- >/dev/null fatal: ambiguous argument 'foobar': unknown revision or path not in the working tree. Use '--' to separate paths from revisions, like this: 'git <command> [<revision>...] -- [<file>...]' $ >foobar $ git rev-parse foobar -- >/dev/null fatal: bad flag '--' used after filename In both cases, we should know that the real error is that "foobar" is meant to be a revision, but could not be resolved.

2013-12-02submodule: do not copy unknown update mode from .gitmodulesJunio C Hamano2-5/+30
When submodule.$name.update is given as hint from the upstream in the .gitmodules file, we used to blindly copy it to .git/config, unless there already is a value defined for the submodule. However, there is no reason to expect that the update mode hinted by the upstream is available in the version of Git the user is using, and a really custom "!cmd" prepared by an upstream person running on Linux may not even be available to a user on Windows. It is simply irresponsible to copy the setting blindly and to attempt to use it during a later "submodule update" without validating it first. Just show the suggested value to the diagnostic output, and set the value to 'none' in the configuration, if it is not one of the ones that are known to be supported by this version of Git.

2013-11-27Documentation: revamp git-cherry(1)Thomas Rast1-33/+110
git-cherry(1)'s "description" section has never really managed to explain to me what the command does. It contains too much explanation of the algorithm instead of simply saying what goals it achieves, and too much terminology that we otherwise do not use (fork-point instead of merge-base). Try a much more concise approach: state what it finds out, why this is neat, and how the output is formatted, in a few short paragraphs. In return, provide much longer examples of how it fits into a "format-patch | am" based workflow, and how it compares to reading the same from git-log. Also carefully avoid using "merge" in a context where it does not mean something that comes from git-merge(1). Instead, say "apply" in an attempt to further link to patch workflow concepts. While there, also omit the language about _which_ upstream branch we treat as the default. I literally just learned that we support having several, so let's not confuse new users here, especially considering that git-config(1) does not document this.
