| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When index-pack completes a thin pack it appends objects to the pack. Since the commit 92392b4(index-pack: Honor core.deltaBaseCacheLimit when resolving deltas) such an object can be pruned in case of memory pressure, and will be read back again by get_data_from_pack(). For this to work, the fields in object_entry structure need to be initialized properly. Noticed by Pierre Habouzit.

But this is currently shown in the dashed form. So if you just copy what you see, it will not work, when the dashed form is no longer supported.

| * index-pack: Honor core.deltaBaseCacheLimit when resolving deltasShawn O. Pearce2008-07-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If we are trying to resolve deltas for a long delta chain composed of multi-megabyte objects we can easily run into requiring 500M+ of memory to hold each object in the chain on the call stack while we recurse into the dependent objects and resolve them. We now use a simple delta cache that discards objects near the bottom of the call stack first, as they are the most least recently used objects in this current delta chain. If we recurse out of a chain we may find the base object is no longer available, as it was free'd to keep memory under the deltaBaseCacheLimit. In such cases we must unpack the base object again, which will require recursing back to the root of the top of the delta chain as we released that root first. The astute reader will probably realize that we can still exceed the delta base cache limit, but this happens only if the most recent base plus the delta plus the inflated dependent sum up to more than the base cache limit. Due to the way patch_delta is currently implemented we cannot operate in less memory anyway. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
| * index-pack: Track the object_entry that creates each base_dataShawn O. Pearce2008-07-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If we free the data stored within a base_data we need the struct object_entry to get the data back again for use with another dependent delta. Storing the object_entry* in base_data makes it simple to call get_data_from_pack() to recover the compressed information. This however means that we must add the missing base object to the end of our packfile prior to calling resolve_delta() on each of the dependent deltas. Adding the base first ensures we can read the base back from the pack we are indexing, as if it had been included by the remote side. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

| * index-pack: Chain the struct base_data on the stack for traversalShawn O. Pearce2008-07-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We need to release earlier inflated base objects when memory gets low, which means we need to be able to walk up or down the stack to locate the objects we want to release, and free their data. The new link/unlink routines allow inserting and removing the struct base_data during recursion inside resolve_delta, and the global base_cache gives us the head of the chain (bottom of the stack) so we can traverse it.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We need to discard base objects which are not recently used if our memory gets low, such as when we are unpacking a long delta chain of a very large object. To support tracking the available base objects we combine the pointer and size into a struct. Future changes would allow the data pointer to be free'd and marked NULL if memory gets low.

Yet it might be called after some amount of data has already been transferred. The display of total data is therefore accounted late and therefore smaller than the reality.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Two functions, namely write_idx_file() and open_pack_file(), currently return a const pointer. However that pointer is either a copy of the first argument, or set to a malloc'd buffer when that first argument is null. In the later case it is wrong to qualify that pointer as const since ownership of the buffer is transferred to the caller to dispose of, and obviously the free() function is not meant to be passed const pointers. Making the return pointer not const causes a warning when the first argument is returned since that argument is also marked const. The correct thing to do is therefore to remove the const qualifiers, avoiding the need for ugly casts only to silence some warnings.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Waaaaaaay back Git was considered to be secure as it never overwrote an object it already had. This was ensured by always unpacking the packfile received over the network (both in fetch and receive-pack) and our already existing logic to not create a loose object for an object we already have. Lately however we keep "large-ish" packfiles on both fetch and push by running them through index-pack instead of unpack-objects. This would let an attacker perform a birthday attack. How? Assume the attacker knows a SHA-1 that has two different data streams. He knows the client is likely to have the "good" one. So he sends the "evil" variant to the other end as part of a "large-ish" packfile. The recipient keeps that packfile, and indexes it. Now since this is a birthday attack there is a SHA-1 collision; two objects exist in the repository with the same SHA-1. They have *very* different data streams. One of them is "evil". Currently the poor recipient cannot tell the two objects apart, short of by examining the timestamp of the packfiles. But lets say the recipient repacks before he realizes he's been attacked. We may wind up packing the "evil" version of the object, and deleting the "good" one. This is made *even more likely* by Junio's recent rearrange_packed_git patch (b867092f). It is extremely unlikely for a SHA1 collisions to occur, but if it ever happens with a remote (hence untrusted) object we simply must not let the fetch succeed. Normally received packs should not contain objects we already have. But when they do we must ensure duplicated objects with the same SHA1 actually contain the same data.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some workflows require use of repositories on machines that cannot be connected, preventing use of git-fetch / git-push to transport objects and references between the repositories. git-bundle provides an alternate transport mechanism, effectively allowing git-fetch and git-pull to operate using sneakernet transport. `git-bundle create` allows the user to create a bundle containing one or more branches or tags, but with specified basis assumed to exist on the target repository. At the receiving end, git-bundle acts like git-fetch-pack, allowing the user to invoke git-fetch or git-pull using the bundle file as the URL. git-fetch and git-ls-remote determine they have a bundle URL by checking that the URL points to a file, but are otherwise unchanged in operation with bundles. The original patch was done by Mark Levedahl <mdl123@verizon.net>. It was updated to make git-bundle a builtin, and get rid of the tar format: now, the first line is supposed to say "# v2 git bundle", the next lines either contain a prerequisite ("-" followed by the hash of the needed commit), or a ref (the hash of a commit, followed by the name of the ref), and finally the pack.
