* Avoid C99 comments, use old-style C comments instead.Pavel Roskin2006-07-10
| | | | | | | | | | This doesn't make the code uglier or harder to read, yet it makes the code more portable. This also simplifies checking for other potential incompatibilities. "gcc -std=c89 -pedantic" can flag many incompatible constructs as warnings, but C99 comments will cause it to emit an error.

| * | | Libify the index refresh logicLinus Torvalds2006-05-19
| | |/ | |/| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This cleans up and libifies the "git update-index --[really-]refresh" functionality. This will be eventually required for eventually doing the "commit" and "status" commands as built-ins. It really just moves "refresh_index()" from update-index.c to read-cache.c, but it also has to change the calling convention so that the function uses a "unsigned int flags" argument instead of various static flags variables for passing down the information about whether to be quiet or not, and allow unmerged entries etc. That actually cleans up update-index.c too, since it turns out that all those flags were really specific to that one function of the index update, so they shouldn't have had file-scope visibility even before.

* "Assume unchanged" gitJunio C Hamano2006-02-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds "assume unchanged" logic, started by this message in the list discussion recently: <Pine.LNX.4.64.0601311807470.7301@g5.osdl.org> This is a workaround for filesystems that do not have lstat() that is quick enough for the index mechanism to take advantage of. 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>

* Racy GITJunio C Hamano2005-12-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes the longstanding "Racy GIT" problem, which was pretty much there from the beginning of time, but was first demonstrated by Pasky in this message on October 24, 2005: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=git&m=113014629716878 If you run the following sequence of commands: echo frotz >infocom git update-index --add infocom echo xyzzy >infocom so that the second update to file "infocom" does not change st_mtime, what is recorded as the stat information for the cache entry "infocom" exactly matches what is on the filesystem (owner, group, inum, mtime, ctime, mode, length). After this sequence, we incorrectly think "infocom" file still has string "frotz" in it, and get really confused. E.g. git-diff-files would say there is no change, git-update-index --refresh would not even look at the filesystem to correct the situation. Some ways of working around this issue were already suggested by Linus in the same thread on the same day, including waiting until the next second before returning from update-index if a cache entry written out has the current timestamp, but that means we can make at most one commit per second, and given that the e-mail patch workflow used by Linus needs to process at least 5 commits per second, it is not an acceptable solution. Linus notes that git-apply is primarily used to update the index while processing e-mailed patches, which is true, and git-apply's up-to-date check is fooled by the same problem but luckily in the other direction, so it is not really a big issue, but still it is disturbing. The function ce_match_stat() is called to bypass the comparison against filesystem data when the stat data recorded in the cache entry matches what stat() returns from the filesystem. This patch tackles the problem by changing it to actually go to the filesystem data for cache entries that have the same mtime as the index file itself. This works as long as the index file and working tree files are on the filesystems that share the same monotonic clock. Files on network mounted filesystems sometimes get skewed timestamps compared to "date" output, but as long as working tree files' timestamps are skewed the same way as the index file's, this approach still works. The only problematic files are the ones that have the same timestamp as the index file's, because two file updates that sandwitch the index file update must happen within the same second to trigger the problem.

* 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>
* Use core.filemode.Junio C Hamano2005-10-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With "[core] filemode = false", you can tell git to ignore differences in the working tree file only in executable bit. * "git-update-index --refresh" does not say "needs update" if index entry and working tree file differs only in executable bit. * "git-update-index" on an existing path takes executable bit from the existing index entry, if the path and index entry are both regular files. * "git-diff-files" and "git-diff-index" without --cached flag pretend the path on the filesystem has the same executable bit as the existing index entry, if the path and index entry are both regular files. If you are on a filesystem with unreliable mode bits, you may need to force the executable bit after registering the path in the index. * "git-update-index --chmod=+x foo" flips the executable bit of the index file entry for path "foo" on. Use "--chmod=-x" to flip it off. Note that --chmod only works in index file and does not look at nor update the working tree. So if you are on a filesystem and do not have working executable bit, you would do: 1. set the appropriate .git/config option; 2. "git-update-index --add new-file.c" 3. "git-ls-files --stage new-file.c" to see if it has the desired mode bits. If not, e.g. to drop executable bit picked up from the filesystem, say "git-update-index --chmod=-x new-file.c".

* Add ".git/config" file parserLinus Torvalds2005-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a first cut at a very simple parser for a git config file. The format of the file is a simple ini-file like thing, with simple variable/value pairs. You can (and should) make the variables have a simple single-level scope, ie a valid file looks something like this: # # This is the config file, and # a '#' or ';' character indicates # a comment # ; core variables [core] ; Don't trust file modes filemode = false ; Our diff algorithm [diff] external = "/usr/local/bin/gnu-diff -u" renames = true which parses into three variables: "core.filemode" is associated with the string "false", and "diff.external" gets the appropriate quoted value. Right now we only react to one variable: "core.filemode" is a boolean that decides if we should care about the 0100 (user-execute) bit of the stat information. Even that is just a parsing demonstration - this doesn't actually implement that st_mode compare logic itself. Different programs can react to different config options, although they should always fall back to calling "git_default_config()" on any config option name that they don't recognize.

* [PATCH] Better error reporting for "git status"Linus Torvalds2005-10-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of "git status" ignoring (and hiding) potential errors from the "git-update-index" call, make it exit if it fails, and show the error. In order to do this, use the "-q" flag (to ignore not-up-to-date files) and add a new "--unmerged" flag that allows unmerged entries in the index without any errors. This also avoids marking the index "changed" if an entry isn't actually modified, and makes sure that we exit with an understandable error message if the index is corrupt or unreadable. "read_cache()" no longer returns an error for the caller to check. Finally, make die() and usage() exit with recognizable error codes, if we ever want to check the failure reason in scripts.

| | | | | | | | | | | | Fix update-cache to compare the blob of a symlink against the link-target and not the file it points to. Also ignore all permissions applied to links. Thanks to Greg for recognizing this while he added our list of symlinks back to the udev repository.

* [PATCH] git and symlinks as tracked contentKay Sievers2005-05-05
| | | | | | | | | | Allow to store and track symlink in the repository. A symlink is stored the same way as a regular file, only with the appropriate mode bits set. The symlink target is therefore stored in a blob object. This will hopefully make our udev repository fully functional. :) Signed-off-by: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
* Allow writing to the private index file mapping.Linus Torvalds2005-04-26
| | | | | We now modify the in-memory copy of the index file in "diff-cache", so we need to add PROT_WRITE.
* [PATCH] introduce xmalloc and xreallocChristopher Li2005-04-26
| | | | | | | | Introduce xmalloc and xrealloc to die gracefully with a descriptive message when out of memory, rather than taking a SIGSEGV. Signed-off-by: Christopher Li<chrislgit@chrisli.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
* New "diff-cache" implementation.Linus Torvalds2005-04-22
| | | | | | | | | | This one is about a million times simpler, and much more likely to be correct too. Instead of trying to match up a tree object against the index, we just read in the tree object side-by-side into the index, and just walk the resulting index file. This was what all the read-tree cleanups were all getting to.
