* Explicitly truncate bswap operand to uint32_tBenjamin Kramer2009-11-25
| | | | | | | | | There are some places in git where a long is passed to htonl/ntohl. llvm doesn't support matching operands of different bitwidths intentionally. This patch fixes the build with llvm-gcc (and clang) on x86_64. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Kramer <benny.kra@googlemail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

* Refactor winsock initialization into a separate functionMartin Storsjö2009-11-24
| | | | | | | | | | | The winsock library must be initialized. Since gethostbyname() is the first function that calls into winsock, it was overridden to do the initialization. This refactoring helps the next patch, where other functions can be called earlier.

| * | Fix the exit code of MSVC build scripts on cygwinRamsay Jones2009-10-08
| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | During an MSVC build on cygwin, the make program did not notice when the compiler or linker exited with an error. This was caused by the scripts exiting with the value returned by system() directly. On POSIX-like systems, such as cygwin, the return value of system() has the exit code of the executed command encoded in the first byte (ie the value is shifted up by 8 bits). This allows the bottom 7 bits to contain the signal number of a terminated process, while the eighth bit indicates whether a core-dump was produced. (A value of -1 indicates that the command failed to execute.) The make program, however, expects the exit code to be encoded in the bottom byte. Futhermore, it apparently masks off and ignores anything in the upper bytes. However, these scripts are (naturally) intended to be used on the windows platform, where we can not assume POSIX-like semantics from a perl implementation (eg ActiveState). So, in general, we can not assume that shifting the return value right by eight will get us the exit code. In order to improve portability, we assume that a zero return from system() indicates success, whereas anything else indicates failure. Since we don't need to know the exact exit code from the compiler or linker, we simply exit with 0 (success) or 1 (failure).

* | Fix some printf format warningsRamsay Jones2009-10-02
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 51ea551 ("make sure byte swapping is optimal for git" 2009-08-18) introduced a "sane definition for ntohl()/htonl()" for use on some GNU C platforms. Unfortunately, for some of these platforms, this results in the introduction of a problem which is essentially the reverse of a problem that commit 6e1c234 ("Fix some warnings (on cygwin) to allow -Werror" 2008-07-3) was intended to fix. In particular, on platforms where the uint32_t type is defined to be unsigned long, the return type of the new ntohl()/htonl() is causing gcc to issue printf format warnings, such as: warning: long unsigned int format, unsigned int arg (arg 3) (nine such warnings, covering six different files). The earlier commit (6e1c234) needed to suppress these same warnings, except that the types were in the opposite direction; namely the format specifier ("%u") was 'unsigned int' and the argument type (ie the return type of ntohl()) was 'long unsigned int' (aka uint32_t). In order to suppress these warnings, the earlier commit used the (C99) PRIu32 format specifier, since the definition of this macro is suitable for use with the uint32_t type on that platform. This worked because the return type of the (original) platform ntohl()/htonl() functions was uint32_t. In order to suppress these warnings, we change the return type of the new byte swapping functions in the compat/bswap.h header file from 'unsigned int' to uint32_t.

* Add scripts to generate projects for other buildsystems (MSVC vcproj, QMake)Marius Storm-Olsen2009-09-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | These scripts generate projects for the MSVC IDE (.vcproj files) or QMake (.pro files), based on the output of a 'make -n MSVC=1 V=1' run. This enables us to simply do the necesarry changes in the Makefile, and you can update the other buildsystems by regenerating the files. Keeping the other buildsystems up-to-date with main development. The generator system is designed to easily drop in pm's for other buildsystems as well, if someone has an itch. However, the focus has been Windows development, so the 'engine' might need patches to support any platform. Also add some .gitignore entries for MSVC files.

* Make usage of windows.h lean and meanMarius Storm-Olsen2009-09-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Centralize the include of windows.h in git-compat-util.h, turn on WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN to avoid including plenty of other header files which is not needed in Git. Also ensure we load winsock2.h first, so we don't load the older winsock definitions at a later stage, since they contain duplicate definitions. When moving windows.h into git-compat-util.h, we need to protect the definition of struct pollfd in mingw.h, since this file is used by both MinGW and MSVC, and the latter defines this struct in winsock2.h. We need to keep the windows.h include in compat/win32.h, since its shared by both MinGW and Cygwin, and we're not touching Cygwin in this commit. The include in git-compat-util.h is protected with an ifdef WIN32, which is not the case when compiling for Cygwin.

* Windows: Work around intermittent failures in mingw_renameJohannes Sixt2009-04-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We have replaced rename() with a version that can rename a file to a destination that already exists. Nevertheless, many users, the author included, observe failures in the code that are not reproducible. The theory is that the failures are due to some other process that happens to have opened the destination file briefly at the wrong moment. (And there is no way on Windows to delete or replace a file that is currently open.) The most likely candidate for such a process is a virus scanner. The failure is more often observed while there is heavy git activity (for example while the test suite is running or during a rebase operation). We work around the failure by retrying the rename operation if it failed due to ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED. The retries are delayed a bit: The first only by giving up the time slice, the next after the minimal scheduling granularity, and if more retries are needed, then we wait some non-trivial amount of time with exponential back-off.

* MinGW: Quote arguments for subprocesses that contain a single-quoteJohannes Sixt2009-03-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Before a process can be spawned by mingw_spawnve, arguments must be surrounded by double-quotes if special characters are present. This is necessary because the startup code of the spawned process will expand arguments that look like glob patterns. "Normal" Windows command line utilities expand only * and ?, but MSYS programs, including bash, are different: They also expand braces, and this has already been taken care of by compat/mingw.c:quote_arg(). But MSYS programs also treat single-quotes in a special way: Arguments between single-quotes are spliced together (with spaces) into a word. With this patch this treatment is avoided by quoting arguments that contain single-quotes. This lets t4252 pass on Windows.
