* rm: loosen safety valve for empty filesJeff King2008-10-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a file is different between the working tree copy, the index, and the HEAD, then we do not allow it to be deleted without --force. However, this is overly tight in the face of "git add --intent-to-add": $ git add --intent-to-add file $ : oops, I don't actually want to stage that yet $ git rm --cached file error: 'empty' has staged content different from both the file and the HEAD (use -f to force removal) $ git rm -f --cached file Unfortunately, there is currently no way to distinguish between an empty file that has been added and an "intent to add" file. The ideal behavior would be to disallow the former while allowing the latter. This patch loosens the safety valve to allow the deletion only if we are deleting the cached entry and the cached content is empty. This covers the intent-to-add situation, and assumes there is little harm in not protecting users who have legitimately added an empty file. In many cases, the file will still be empty, in which case the safety valve does not trigger anyway (since the content remains untouched in the working tree). Otherwise, we do remove the fact that no content was staged, but given that the content is by definition empty, it is not terribly difficult for a user to recreate it. However, we still document the desired behavior in the form of two tests. One checks the correct removal of an intent-to-add file. The other checks that we still disallow removal of empty files, but is marked as expect_failure to indicate this compromise. If the intent-to-add feature is ever extended to differentiate between normal empty files and intent-to-add files, then the safety valve can be re-tightened.

Much later, 5698454e updated the code in ls-files to handle some new cases caused by gitlinks. This left the code in wt-status.c broken: it would display submodule directories as untracked directories. Nobody noticed until now, however, because unless status.showUntrackedFiles was set to "all", submodule directories were not actually reported by read_directory. So the bug was only triggered in the presence of a submodule _and_ this config option. This patch pulls the ls-files code into a new function, cache_name_is_other, and uses it in both places. This should leave the ls-files functionality the same and fix the bug in status. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

Compilation of git is probably broken on PPC too for the same reason. Turns out that the only file requiring openssl/ssl.h and openssl/err.h is imap-send.c. But only moving those problematic includes there doesn't solve the issue as it also includes cache.h which brings in the conflicting local SHA1 header file. As suggested by Jeff King, the best solution is to rename our references to SHA1 functions and structure to something git specific, and define those according to the implementation used.

The resulting in-core index is Ok for most use, but read_cache() does not recognize it as such. The function is meant to be no-op if you already have loaded the index, until you call discard_cache(). This change the way read_cache() detects an already initialized in-core index, by introducing an extra bit, and marks the handcrafted in-core index as initialized, to avoid this problem. A better fix in the longer term would be to change the read_cache() API so that it will always discard and re-read from the on-disk index to avoid confusion. But there are higher level API that have relied on the current semantics, and they and their users all need to get converted, which is outside the scope of 'maint' track. An example of such a higher level API is write_cache_as_tree(), which is used by git-write-tree as well as later Porcelains like git-merge, revert and cherry-pick. In the longer term, we should remove read_cache() from there and add one to cmd_write_tree(); other callers expect that the in-core index they prepared is what gets written as a tree so no other change is necessary for this particular codepath. The original version of this patch marked the index by pointing an otherwise wasted malloc'ed memory with o->result.alloc, but this version uses Linus's idea to use a new "initialized" bit, which is conceptually much cleaner.

* | Teach gitlinks to ie_modified() and ce_modified_check_fs()Junio C Hamano2008-07-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The ie_modified() function is the workhorse for refresh_cache_entry(), i.e. checking if an index entry that is stat-dirty actually has changes. After running quicker check to compare cached stat information with results from the latest lstat(2) to answer "has modification" early, the code goes on to check if there really is a change by comparing the staged data with what is on the filesystem by asking ce_modified_check_fs(). However, this function always said "no change" for any gitlinks that has a directory at the corresponding path. This made ie_modified() to miss actual changes in the subproject. The patch fixes this first by modifying an existing short-circuit logic before calling the ce_modified_check_fs() function. It knows that for any filesystem entity to which ie_match_stat() says its data has changed, if its cached size is nonzero then the contents cannot match, which is a correct optimization only for blob objects. We teach gitlink objects to this special case, as we already know that any gitlink that ie_match_stat() says is modified is indeed modified at this point in the codepath. With the above change, we could leave ce_modified_check_fs() broken, but it also futureproofs the code by teaching it to use ce_compare_gitlink(), instead of assuming (incorrectly) that any directory is unchanged.

* | git-mv: Keep moved index entries inactPetr Baudis2008-07-27
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The rewrite of git-mv from a shell script to a builtin was perhaps a little too straightforward: the git add and git rm queues were emulated directly, which resulted in a rather complicated code and caused an inconsistent behaviour when moving dirty index entries; git mv would update the entry based on working tree state, except in case of overwrites, where the new entry would still have sha1 of the old file. This patch introduces rename_index_entry_at() into the index toolkit, which will rename an entry while removing any entries the new entry might render duplicate. This is then used in git mv instead of all the file queues, resulting in a major simplification of the code and an inevitable change in git mv -n output format. Also the code used to refuse renaming overwriting symlink with a regular file and vice versa; there is no need for that. A few new tests have been added to the testsuite to reflect this change.

* "needs update" considered harmfulJunio C Hamano2008-07-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | "git update-index --refresh", "git reset" and "git add --refresh" have reported paths that have local modifications as "needs update" since the beginning of git. Although this is logically correct in that you need to update the index at that path before you can commit that change, it is now becoming more and more clear, especially with the continuous push for user friendliness since 1.5.0 series, that the message is suboptimal. After all, the change may be something the user might want to get rid of, and "updating" would be absolutely a wrong thing to do if that is the case. I prepared two alternatives to solve this. Both aim to reword the message to more neutral "locally modified". This patch is a more intrusive variant that changes the message for only Porcelain commands ("add" and "reset") while keeping the plumbing "update-index" intact.

This cuts down 'lstat()' calls for the partial commit case by two for each path we know about (because we do this twice per path). Just move the lstat() to the caller instead (that's all that "file_exists()" really does), and pass the stat information down to the add_to_cache() function. This essentially makes 'add_to_index()' the core function that adds a path to the index, getting the index pointer, the pathname and the stat information as arguments. There are then shorthand helper functions that use this core function: - 'add_to_cache()' is just 'add_to_index()' with the default index - 'add_file_to_cache/index()' is the same, but does the lstat() call itself, so you can pass just the pathname if you don't already have the stat information available. So old users of the 'add_file_to_xyzzy()' are essentially left unchanged, and this just exposes the more generic helper function that can take existing stat information into account.

Note that while a directory name compares as equal to a regular file with the new helper, they then individually compare _differently_ to a filename that has a dot after the basename (because '\0' < '.' < '/'). So a directory called "foo/" will compare equal to a file "foo", even though "foo.c" will compare after "foo" and before "foo/" This will be used by routines that want to traverse the git namespace but then handle conflicting entries together when possible.

* | Name hash fixups: export (and rename) remove_hash_entryLinus Torvalds2008-02-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This makes the name hash removal function (which really just sets the bit that disables lookups of it) available to external routines, and makes read_cache_unmerged() use it when it drops an unmerged entry from the index. It's renamed to remove_index_entry(), and we drop the (unused) 'istate' argument. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
* | Fix name re-hashing semanticsLinus Torvalds2008-02-22
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We handled the case of removing and re-inserting cache entries badly, which is something that merging commonly needs to do (removing the different stages, and then re-inserting one of them as the merged state). We even had a rather ugly special case for this failure case, where replace_index_entry() basically turned itself into a no-op if the new and the old entries were the same, exactly because the hash routines didn't handle it on their own. So what this patch does is to not just have the UNHASHED bit, but a HASHED bit too, and when you insert an entry into the name hash, that involves: - clear the UNHASHED bit, because now it's valid again for lookup (which is really all that UNHASHED meant) - if we're being lazy, we're done here (but we still want to clear the UNHASHED bit regardless of lazy mode, since we can become unlazy later, and so we need the UNHASHED bit to always be set correctly, even if we never actually insert the entry into the hash list) - if it was already hashed, we just leave it on the list - otherwise mark it HASHED and insert it into the list this all means that unhashing and rehashing a name all just works automatically. Obviously, you cannot change the name of an entry (that would be a serious bug), but nothing can validly do that anyway (you'd have to allocate a new struct cache_entry anyway since the name length could change), so that's not a new limitation. The code actually gets simpler in many ways, although the lazy hashing does mean that there are a few odd cases (ie something can be marked unhashed even though it was never on the hash in the first place, and isn't actually marked hashed!).

* Create pathname-based hash-table lookup into indexLinus Torvalds2008-01-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This creates a hash index of every single file added to the index. Right now that hash index isn't actually used for much: I implemented a "cache_name_exists()" function that uses it to efficiently look up a filename in the index without having to do the O(logn) binary search, but quite frankly, that's not why this patch is interesting. No, the whole and only reason to create the hash of the filenames in the index is that by modifying the hash function, you can fairly easily do things like making it always hash equivalent names into the same bucket. That, in turn, means that suddenly questions like "does this name exist in the index under an _equivalent_ name?" becomes much much cheaper. Guiding principles behind this patch: - it shouldn't be too costly. In fact, my primary goal here was to actually speed up "git commit" with a fully populated kernel tree, by being faster at checking whether a file already existed in the index. I did succeed, but only barely: Best before: [torvalds@woody linux]$ time git commit > /dev/null real 0m0.255s user 0m0.168s sys 0m0.088s Best after: [torvalds@woody linux]$ time ~/git/git commit > /dev/null real 0m0.233s user 0m0.144s sys 0m0.088s so some things are actually faster (~8%). Caveat: that's really the best case. Other things are invariably going to be slightly slower, since we populate that index cache, and quite frankly, few things really use it to look things up. That said, the cost is really quite small. The worst case is probably doing a "git ls-files", which will do very little except puopulate the index, and never actually looks anything up in it, just lists it. Before: [torvalds@woody linux]$ time git ls-files > /dev/null real 0m0.016s user 0m0.016s sys 0m0.000s After: [torvalds@woody linux]$ time ~/git/git ls-files > /dev/null real 0m0.021s user 0m0.012s sys 0m0.008s and while the thing has really gotten relatively much slower, we're still talking about something almost unmeasurable (eg 5ms). And that really should be pretty much the worst case. So we lose 5ms on one "benchmark", but win 22ms on another. Pick your poison - this patch has the advantage that it will _likely_ speed up the cases that are complex and expensive more than it slows down the cases that are already so fast that nobody cares. But if you look at relative speedups/slowdowns, it doesn't look so good. - It should be simple and clean The code may be a bit subtle (the reasons I do hash removal the way I do etc), but it re-uses the existing hash.c files, so it really is fairly small and straightforward apart from a few odd details. Now, this patch on its own doesn't really do much, but I think it's worth looking at, if only because if done correctly, the name hashing really can make an improvement to the whole issue of "do we have a filename that looks like this in the index already". And at least it gets real testing by being used even by default (ie there is a real use-case for it even without any insane filesystems). NOTE NOTE NOTE! The current hash is a joke. I'm ashamed of it, I'm just not ashamed of it enough to really care. I took all the numbers out of my nether regions - I'm sure it's good enough that it works in practice, but the whole point was that you can make a really much fancier hash that hashes characters not directly, but by their upper-case value or something like that, and thus you get a case-insensitive hash, while still keeping the name and the index itself totally case sensitive.
