| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add config variables pack.compression and core.loosecompression , and switch --compression=level to pack-objects. Loose objects will be compressed using core.loosecompression if set, else core.compression if set, else Z_BEST_SPEED. Packed objects will be compressed using --compression=level if seen, else pack.compression if set, else core.compression if set, else Z_DEFAULT_COMPRESSION. This is the "pack compression level". Loose objects added to a pack undeltified will be recompressed to the pack compression level if it is unequal to the current loose compression level by the preceding rules, or if the loose object was written while core.legacyheaders = true. Newly deltified loose objects are always compressed to the current pack compression level. Previously packed objects added to a pack are recompressed to the current pack compression level exactly when their deltification status changes, since the previous pack data cannot be reused. In either case, the --no-reuse-object switch from the first patch below will always force recompression to the current pack compression level, instead of assuming the pack compression level hasn't changed and pack data can be reused when possible. This applies on top of the following patches from Nicolas Pitre: [PATCH] allow for undeltified objects not to be reused [PATCH] make "repack -f" imply "pack-objects --no-reuse-object" Signed-off-by: Dana L.

* | deprecate the new loose object header formatNicolas Pitre2007-05-10
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that we encourage and actively preserve objects in a packed form more agressively than we did at the time the new loose object format and core.legacyheaders were introduced, that extra loose object format doesn't appear to be worth it anymore. Because the packing of loose objects has to go through the delta match loop anyway, and since most of them should end up being deltified in most cases, there is really little advantage to have this parallel loose object format as the CPU savings it might provide is rather lost in the noise in the end. This patch gets rid of core.legacyheaders, preserve the legacy format as the only writable loose object format and deprecate the other one to keep things simpler.

* Limit the size of the new delta_base_cacheShawn O. Pearce2007-03-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The new configuration variable core.deltaBaseCacheLimit allows the user to control how much memory they are willing to give to Git for caching base objects of deltas. This is not normally meant to be a user tweakable knob; the "out of the box" settings are meant to be suitable for almost all workloads. We default to 16 MiB under the assumption that the cache is not meant to consume all of the user's available memory, and that the cache's main purpose was to cache trees, for faster path limiters during revision traversal. Since trees tend to be relatively small objects, this relatively small limit should still allow a large number of objects. On the other hand we don't want the cache to start storing 200 different versions of a 200 MiB blob, as this could easily blow the entire address space of a 32 bit process. We evict OBJ_BLOB from the cache first (credit goes to Junio) as we want to favor OBJ_TREE within the cache. These are the objects that have the highest inflate() startup penalty, as they tend to be small and thus don't have that much of a chance to ammortize that penalty over the entire data.

* Correct new compiler warnings in builtin-revertShawn O. Pearce2007-03-12
| | | | | | | | | | The new builtin-revert code introduces a few new compiler errors when I'm building with my stricter set of checks enabled in CFLAGS.

* General const correctness fixesShawn O. Pearce2007-03-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We shouldn't attempt to assign constant strings into char*, as the string is not writable at runtime. Likewise we should always be treating unsigned values as unsigned values, not as signed values. Most of these are very straightforward. The only exception is the (unnecessary) xstrdup/free in builtin-branch.c for the detached head case. Since this is a user-level interactive type program and that particular code path is executed no more than once, I feel that the extra xstrdup call is well worth the easy elimination of this warning.

* 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.

* Make AutoCRLF ternary variable.Linus Torvalds2007-02-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This allows you to do: [core] AutoCRLF = input and it should do only the CRLF->LF translation (ie it simplifies CRLF only when reading working tree files, but when checking out files, it leaves the LF alone, and doesn't turn it into a CRLF).

* 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.

* Introduce is_bare_repository() and core.bare configuration variableJunio C Hamano2007-01-07
| | | | | | | | | | | This removes the old is_bare_git_dir(const char *) to ask if a directory, if it is a GIT_DIR, is a bare repository, and replaces it with is_bare_repository(void *). The function looks at core.bare configuration variable if exists but uses the old heuristics: if it is ".git" or ends with "/.git", then it does not look like a bare repository, otherwise it does.

* Move initialization of log_all_ref_updatesJunio C Hamano2007-01-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The patches to prevent Porcelainish that require working tree from doing any damage in a bare repository make a lot of sense, and I want to make the is_bare_git_dir() function more reliable. In order to allow the repository owner override the heuristic implemented in is_bare_git_dir() if/when it misidentifies a particular repository, it would make sense to introduce a new configuration variable "[core] bare = true/false", and make is_bare_git_dir() notice it. The scripts would do a 'repo-config --bool --get core.bare' and iff the command fails (i.e. there is no such variable in the configuration file), it would use the heuristic implemented at the script level [*1*]. However, setup_git_env() which is called a lot earlier than we even read from the repository configuration currently makes a call to is_bare_git_dir(), in order to change the default setting for log_all_ref_updates. It somehow feels that this is a hack. By the way, [*1*] is another thing I hate about the current config mechanism. "git-repo-config --get" does not know what the possible configuration variables are, let alone what the default values for them are. It allows us not to maintain a centralized configuration table, which makes it easy to introduce ad-hoc variables and gives a warm fuzzy feeling of being modular, but my feeling is that it is turning out to be a rather high price to pay for scripts.

* Default core.packdGitWindowSize to 1 MiB if NO_MMAP.Shawn O. Pearce2006-12-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the compiler has asked us to disable use of mmap() on their platform then we are forced to use git_mmap and its emulation via pread. In this case large (e.g. 32 MiB) windows for pack access are simply too big as a command will wind up reading a lot more data than it will ever need, significantly reducing response time. To prevent a high latency when NO_MMAP has been selected we now use a default of 1 MiB for core.packedGitWindowSize. Credit goes to Linus and Junio for recommending this more reasonable setting.

* Fully activate the sliding window pack access.Shawn O. Pearce2006-12-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This finally turns on the sliding window behavior for packfile data access by mapping limited size windows and chaining them under the packed_git->windows list. We consider a given byte offset to be within the window only if there would be at least 20 bytes (one hash worth of data) accessible after the requested offset. This range selection relates to the contract that use_pack() makes with its callers, allowing them to access one hash or one object header without needing to call use_pack() for every byte of data obtained. In the worst case scenario we will map the same page of data twice into memory: once at the end of one window and once again at the start of the next window. This duplicate page mapping will happen only when an object header or a delta base reference is spanned over the end of a window and is always limited to just one page of duplication, as no sane operating system will ever have a page size smaller than a hash. I am assuming that the possible wasted page of virtual address space is going to perform faster than the alternatives, which would be to copy the object header or ref delta into a temporary buffer prior to parsing, or to check the window range on every byte during header parsing. We may decide to revisit this decision in the future since this is just a gut instinct decision and has not actually been proven out by experimental testing. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

* Introduce new config option for mmap limit.Shawn O. Pearce2006-12-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Rather than hardcoding the maximum number of bytes which can be mmapped from pack files we should make this value configurable, allowing the end user to increase or decrease this limit on a per-repository basis depending on the size of the repository and the capabilities of their operating system. In general users should not need to manually tune such a low-level setting within the core code, but being able to artifically limit the number of bytes which we can mmap at once from pack files will make it easier to craft test cases for the new mmap sliding window implementation.

* UTF-8: introduce i18n.logoutputencoding.Junio C Hamano2006-12-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is plausible for somebody to want to view the commit log in a different encoding from i18n.commitencoding -- the project's policy may be UTF-8 and the user may be using a commit message hook to run iconv to conform to that policy (and either not have i18n.commitencoding to default to UTF-8 or have it explicitly set to UTF-8). Even then, Latin-1 may be more convenient for the usual pager and the terminal the user uses. The new variable i18n.logoutputencoding is used in preference to i18n.commitencoding to decide what encoding to recode the log output in when git-log and friends formats the commit log message.

* Enable reflogs by default in any repository with a working directory.Shawn O. Pearce2006-12-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | New and experienced Git users alike are finding out too late that they forgot to enable reflogs in the current repository, and cannot use the information stored within it to recover from an incorrectly entered command such as `git reset --hard HEAD^^^` when they really meant HEAD^^ (aka HEAD~2). So enable reflogs by default in all future versions of Git, unless the user specifically disables it with: [core] logAllRefUpdates = false in their .git/config or ~/.gitconfig. We only enable reflogs in repositories that have a working directory associated with them, as shared/bare repositories do not have an easy means to prune away old log entries, or may fail logging entirely if the user's gecos information is not valid during a push. This heuristic was suggested on the mailing list by Junio. Documentation was also updated to indicate the new default behavior. We probably should start to teach usuing the reflog to recover from mistakes in some of the tutorial material, as new users are likely to make a few along the way and will feel better knowing they can recover from them quickly and easily, without fsck-objects' lost+found features.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The pack-file format is slightly different from the traditional git object format, in that it has a much denser binary header encoding. The traditional format uses an ASCII string with type and length information, which is somewhat wasteful. A new object format starts with uncompressed binary header followed by compressed payload -- this will allow us later to copy the payload straight to packfiles. Obviously they cannot be read by older versions of git, so for now new object files are created with the traditional format. core.legacyheaders configuration item, when set to false makes the code write in new format for people to experiment with.

* "Assume unchanged" gitJunio C Hamano2006-02-08

On the paths marked as "assumed to be unchanged", the user needs to explicitly use update-index to register the object name to be in the next commit. You can use two new options to update-index to set and reset the CE_VALID bit: git-update-index --assume-unchanged path... git-update-index --no-assume-unchanged path... These forms manipulate only the CE_VALID bit; it does not change the object name recorded in the index file. Nor they add a new entry to the index. When the configuration variable "core.ignorestat = true" is set, the index entries are marked with CE_VALID bit automatically after: - update-index to explicitly register the current object name to the index file. - when update-index --refresh finds the path to be up-to-date. - when tools like read-tree -u and apply --index update the working tree file and register the current object name to the index file. The flag is dropped upon read-tree that does not check out the index entry. This happens regardless of the core.ignorestat settings. Index entries marked with CE_VALID bit are assumed to be unchanged most of the time. However, there are cases that CE_VALID bit is ignored for the sake of safety and usability: - while "git-read-tree -m" or git-apply need to make sure that the paths involved in the merge do not have local modifications. This sacrifices performance for safety. - when git-checkout-index -f -q -u -a tries to see if it needs to checkout the paths. Otherwise you can never check anything out ;-). - when git-update-index --really-refresh (a new flag) tries to see if the index entry is up to date. You can start with everything marked as CE_VALID and run this once to drop CE_VALID bit for paths that are modified. Most notably, "update-index --refresh" honours CE_VALID and does not actively stat, so after you modified a file in the working tree, update-index --refresh would not notice until you tell the index about it with "git-update-index path" or "git-update-index --no-assume-unchanged path". This version is not expected to be perfect. I think diff between index and/or tree and working files may need some adjustment, and there probably needs other cases we should automatically unmark paths that are marked to be CE_VALID. But the basics seem to work, and ready to be tested by people who asked for this feature. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

Since all files are written as lock files first, and then moved to their destination, they do not have to be group writable. Indeed, if this leads to problems you found a bug.

* Use git config file for committer name and email infoLinus Torvalds2005-10-11
This starts using the "user.name" and "user.email" config variables if they exist as the default name and email when committing. This means that you don't have to use the GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL environment variable to override your email - you can just edit the config file instead. The patch looks bigger than it is because it makes the default name and email information non-static and renames it appropriately. And it moves the common git environment variables into a new library file, so that you can link against libgit.a and get the git environment without having to link in zlib and libcrypt. In short, most of it is renaming and moving, the real change core is just a few new lines in "git_default_config()" that copies the user config values to the new base. It also changes "git-var -l" to list the config variables. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
