| * streaming_write_entry: propagate streaming errorsJeff King2013-03-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we are streaming an index blob to disk, we store the error from stream_blob_to_fd in the "result" variable, and then immediately overwrite that with the return value of "close". That means we catch errors on close (e.g., problems committing the file to disk), but miss anything which happened before then. We can fix this by using bitwise-OR to accumulate errors in our result variable. While we're here, we can also simplify the error handling with an early return, which makes it easier to see under which circumstances we need to clean up.

|\ \ | |/ |/| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Codepath to stream blob object contents directly from the object store to filesystem did not use the correct path to find conversion filters when writing to temporary files. * jk/checkout-attribute-lookup: t2003: work around path mangling issue on Windows entry: fix filter lookup t2003: modernize style
| * entry: fix filter lookupJohn Keeping2013-03-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When looking up the stream filter, write_entry() should be passing the path of the file in the repository, not the path to which the content is going to be written. This allows the file to be correctly looked up against the .gitattributes files in the working tree. This change makes the streaming case match the non-streaming case which passes ce->name to convert_to_working_tree later in the same function. The two tests added here test the different paths through write_entry since the CRLF filter is a streaming filter but the user-defined smudge filter is not streamed.

* | streaming: make streaming-write-entry to be more reusableJunio C Hamano2012-03-07
|/ | | | | | | | | | The static function in entry.c takes a cache entry and streams its blob contents to a file in the working tree. Refactor the logic to a new API function stream_blob_to_fd() that takes an object name and an open file descriptor, so that it can be reused by other callers.

* Add streaming filter APIJunio C Hamano2011-05-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This introduces an API to plug custom filters to an input stream. The caller gets get_stream_filter("path") to obtain an appropriate filter for the path, and then uses it when opening an input stream via open_istream(). After that, the caller can read from the stream with read_istream(), and close it with close_istream(), just like an unfiltered stream. This only adds a "null" filter that is a pass-thru filter, but later changes can add LF-to-CRLF and other filters, and the callers of the streaming API do not have to change.

* streaming_write_entry(): support files with holesJunio C Hamano2011-05-20

* streaming_write_entry(): use streaming API in write_entry()Junio C Hamano2011-05-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the output to a path does not have to be converted, we can read from the object database from the streaming API and write to the file in the working tree, without having to hold everything in the memory. The ident, auto- and safe- crlf conversions inherently require you to read the whole thing before deciding what to do, so while it is technically possible to support them by using a buffer of an unbound size or rewinding and reading the stream twice, it is less practical than the traditional "read the whole thing in core and convert" approach. Adding streaming filters for the other conversions on top of this should be doable by tweaking the can_bypass_conversion() function (it should be renamed to can_filter_stream() when it happens). Then the streaming API can be extended to wrap the git_istream streaming_write_entry() opens on the underlying object in another git_istream that reads from it, filters what is read, and let the streaming_write_entry() read the filtered result. But that is outside the scope of this series. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
* write_entry(): separate two helper functions outJunio C Hamano2011-05-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | In the write-out codepath, a block of code determines what file in the working tree to write to, and opens an output file descriptor to it. After writing the contents out to the file, another block of code runs fstat() on the file descriptor when appropriate. Separate these blocks out to open_output_fd() and fstat_output() helper functions. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

* | check_path(): allow symlinked directories to checkout-index --prefixJunio C Hamano2009-08-18
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Merlyn noticed that Documentation/install-doc-quick.sh no longer correctly removes old installed documents when the target directory has a leading path that is a symlink. It turns out that "checkout-index --prefix" was broken by recent b6986d8 (git-checkout: be careful about untracked symlinks, 2009-07-29). I suspect has_symlink_leading_path() could learn the third parameter (prefix that is allowed to be symlinked directories) to allow us to retire a similar function has_dirs_only_path(). Another avenue of fixing this I considered was to get rid of base_dir and base_dir_len from "struct checkout", and instead make "git checkout-index" when run with --prefix mkdir the leading path and chdir in there. It might be the best longer term solution to this issue, as the base_dir feature is used only by that rather obscure codepath as far as I know. But at least this patch should fix this breakage.

* Windows: Skip fstat/lstat optimization in write_entry()Johannes Sixt2009-04-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit e4c72923 (write_entry(): use fstat() instead of lstat() when file is open, 2009-02-09) introduced an optimization of write_entry(). Unfortunately, we cannot take advantage of this optimization on Windows because there is no guarantee that the time stamps are updated before the file is closed: "The only guarantee about a file timestamp is that the file time is correctly reflected when the handle that makes the change is closed." (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms724290(VS.85).aspx) The failure of this optimization on Windows can be observed most easily by running a 'git checkout' that has to update several large files. In this case, 'git checkout' will report modified files, but infact only the timestamps were incorrectly recorded in the index, as can be verified by a subsequent 'git diff', which shows no change. Dmitry Potapov reports the same fix needs on Cygwin; this commit contains his updates for that. Signed-off-by: Johannes Sixt <j6t@kdbg.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
* write_entry(): use fstat() instead of lstat() when file is openKjetil Barvik2009-02-09

| * lstat_cache(): introduce has_dirs_only_path() functionKjetil Barvik2009-01-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The create_directories() function in entry.c currently calls stat() or lstat() for each path component of the pathname 'path' each and every time. For the 'git checkout' command, this function is called on each file for which we must do an update (ce->ce_flags & CE_UPDATE), so we get lots and lots of calls. To fix this, we make a new wrapper to the lstat_cache() function, and call the wrapper function instead of the calls to the stat() or the lstat() functions. Since the paths given to the create_directories() function, is sorted alphabetically, the new wrapper would be very cache effective in this situation. To support it we must update the lstat_cache() function to be able to say that "please test the complete length of 'name'", and also to give it the length of a prefix, where the cache should use the stat() function instead of the lstat() function to test each path component.

* Fix possible Solaris problem in 'checkout_entry()'Linus Torvalds2008-03-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently when checking out an entry "path", we try to unlink(2) it first (because there could be stale file), and if there is a directory there, try to deal with it (typically we run recursive rmdir). We ignore the error return from this unlink because there may not even be any file there. However if you are root on Solaris, you can unlink(2) a directory successfully and corrupt your filesystem. This moves the code around and check the directory first, and then unlink(2). Also we check the error code from it.

* Make on-disk index representation separate from in-core oneLinus Torvalds2008-01-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This converts the index explicitly on read and write to its on-disk format, allowing the in-core format to contain more flags, and be simpler. In particular, the in-core format is now host-endian (as opposed to the on-disk one that is network endian in order to be able to be shared across machines) and as a result we can dispense with all the htonl/ntohl on accesses to the cache_entry fields. This will make it easier to make use of various temporary flags that do not exist in the on-disk format. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

API changes: * strbuf_setlen now always works, so just make strbuf_reset a convenience macro. * strbuf_detatch takes a size_t* optional argument (meaning it can be NULL) to copy the buffer's len, as it was needed for this refactor to make the code more readable, and working like the callers.

If you want to create a new filter working this way, being the accumulation of filter1, filter2, ... filtern, then your meta_filter would be: int meta_filter(..., const char *src, size_t len, struct strbuf *sb) { int ret = 0; ret |= filter1(...., src, len, sb); if (ret) { src = sb->buf; len = sb->len; } ret |= filter2(...., src, len, sb); if (ret) { src = sb->buf; len = sb->len; } .... return ret | filtern(..., src, len, sb); } That's why subfilters the convert_to_* functions called were also rewritten to work this way.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When "git checkout-index" checks out path A/B/C, it makes sure A and A/B are truly directories; if there is a regular file or symlink at A, we prefer to remove it. We used to do this by catching an error return from mkdir(2), and on EEXIST did unlink(2), and when it succeeded, tried another mkdir(2). Thomas Glanzmann found out the above does not work on Solaris for a root user, as unlink(2) was so old fashioned there that it allowed to unlink a directory. As pointed out, this still doesn't guarantee that git won't call "unlink()" on a directory (race conditions etc), but that's fundamentally true (there is no "funlink()" like there is "fstat()"), and besides, that is in no way git-specific (ie it's true of any application that gets run as root).

* | Teach "git-read-tree -u" to check out submodules as a directoryLinus Torvalds2007-04-14
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | This actually allows us to check out a supermodule after cloning, although the submodules themselves will obviously not be checked out, and will just be empty directories. Checking out the submodules will be up to higher levels - we may not even want to! Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* Add core.symlinks to mark filesystems that do not support symbolic links.Johannes Sixt2007-03-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some file systems that can host git repositories and their working copies do not support symbolic links. But then if the repository contains a symbolic link, it is impossible to check out the working copy. This patch enables partial support of symbolic links so that it is possible to check out a working copy on such a file system. A new flag core.symlinks (which is true by default) can be set to false to indicate that the filesystem does not support symbolic links. In this case, symbolic links that exist in the trees are checked out as small plain files, and checking in modifications of these files preserve the symlink property in the database (as long as an entry exists in the index). Of course, this does not magically make symbolic links work on such defective file systems; hence, this solution does not help if the working copy relies on that an entry is a real symbolic link.

* convert object type handling from a string to a numberNicolas Pitre2007-02-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We currently have two parallel notation for dealing with object types in the code: a string and a numerical value. One of them is obviously redundent, and the most used one requires more stack space and a bunch of strcmp() all over the place. This is an initial step for the removal of the version using a char array found in object reading code paths. The patch is unfortunately large but there is no sane way to split it in smaller parts without breaking the system.

* Lazy man's auto-CRLFLinus Torvalds2007-02-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It currently does NOT know about file attributes, so it does its conversion purely based on content. Maybe that is more in the "git philosophy" anyway, since content is king, but I think we should try to do the file attributes to turn it off on demand. Anyway, BY DEFAULT it is off regardless, because it requires a [core] AutoCRLF = true in your config file to be enabled. We could make that the default for Windows, of course, the same way we do some other things (filemode etc). But you can actually enable it on UNIX, and it will cause: - "git update-index" will write blobs without CRLF - "git diff" will diff working tree files without CRLF - "git checkout" will write files to the working tree _with_ CRLF and things work fine. Funnily, it actually shows an odd file in git itself: git clone -n git test-crlf cd test-crlf git config core.autocrlf true git checkout git diff shows a diff for "Documentation/docbook-xsl.css". Why? Because we have actually checked in that file *with* CRLF! So when "core.autocrlf" is true, we'll always generate a *different* hash for it in the index, because the index hash will be for the content _without_ CRLF. Is this complete? I dunno. It seems to work for me. It doesn't use the filename at all right now, and that's probably a deficiency (we could certainly make the "is_binary()" heuristics also take standard filename heuristics into account). I don't pass in the filename at all for the "index_fd()" case (git-update-index), so that would need to be passed around, but this actually works fine. NOTE NOTE NOTE! The "is_binary()" heuristics are totally made-up by yours truly. I will not guarantee that they work at all reasonable. Caveat emptor. But it _is_ simple, and it _is_ safe, since it's all off by default. The patch is pretty simple - the biggest part is the new "convert.c" file, but even that is really just basic stuff that anybody can write in "Teaching C 101" as a final project for their first class in programming. Not to say that it's bug-free, of course - but at least we're not talking about rocket surgery here.

* Mark places that need blob munging later for CRLF conversion.Linus Torvalds2007-02-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Here's a patch that I think we can merge right now. There may be other places that need this, but this at least points out the three places that read/write working tree files for git update-index, checkout and diff respectively. That should cover a lot of it [jc: git-apply uses an entirely different codepath both for reading and writing]. Some day we can actually implement it. In the meantime, this points out a place for people to start. We *can* even start with a really simple "we do CRLF conversion automatically, regardless of filename" kind of approach, that just look at the data (all three cases have the _full_ file data already in memory) and says "ok, this is text, so let's convert to/from DOS format directly". THAT somebody can write in ten minutes, and it would already make git much nicer on a DOS/Windows platform, I suspect. And it would be totally zero-cost if you just make it a config option (but please make it dynamic with the _default_ just being 0/1 depending on whether it's UNIX/Windows, just so that UNIX people can _test_ it easily).

* short i/o: fix calls to write to use xwrite or write_in_fullAndy Whitcroft2007-01-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | We have a number of badly checked write() calls. Often we are expecting write() to write exactly the size we requested or fail, this fails to handle interrupts or short writes. Switch to using the new write_in_full(). Otherwise we at a minimum need to check for EINTR and EAGAIN, where this is appropriate use xwrite(). Note, the changes to config handling are much larger and handled in the next patch in the sequence. Signed-off-by: Andy Whitcroft <apw@shadowen.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
