* filter-branch: avoid passing commit message through sedJeff King2015-04-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On some systems (like OS X), if sed encounters input without a trailing newline, it will silently add it. As a result, "git filter-branch" on such systems may silently rewrite commit messages that omit a trailing newline. Even though this is not something we generate ourselves with "git commit", it's better for filter-branch to preserve the original data as closely as possible. We're using sed here only to strip the header fields from the commit object. We can accomplish the same thing with a shell loop. Since shell "read" calls are slow (usually one syscall per byte), we use "cat" once we've skipped past the header. Depending on the size of your commit messages, this is probably faster (you pay the cost to fork, but then read the data in saner-sized chunks). This idea is shamelessly stolen from Junio.

* filter-branch: eliminate duplicate mapped parentsCharles Bailey2014-07-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When multiple parents of a merge commit get mapped to the same commit, filter-branch used to pass all instances of the parent commit to the parent and commit filters and to "git commit-tree" or "git_commit_non_empty_tree". This can often happen when extracting a small project from a large repository; merges can join history with no commits on any branch which affect the paths being retained. Once the intermediate commits have been filtered out, all the immediate parents of the merge commit can end up being mapped to the same commit - either the original merge-base or an ancestor of it. "git commit-tree" would display an error but write the commit with the normalized parents in any case. "git_commit_non_empty_tree" would fail to notice that the commit being made was in fact a non-merge commit and would retain it even if a further pass with "--prune-empty" would discard the commit as empty. Ensure that duplicate parents are pruned before the parent filter to make "--prune-empty" idempotent, removing all empty non-merge commits in a singe pass.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The first thing filter-branch does is to create a temporary directory, either ".git-rewrite" in the current directory (which may be the working tree or the repository if bare), or in a directory specified by "-d". We then chdir to $tempdir/t as our temporary working directory in which to run tree filters. After finishing the filter, we then attempt to go back to the original directory with "cd ../..". This works in the .git-rewrite case, but if "-d" is used, we end up in a random directory. The only thing we do after this chdir is to run git-read-tree, but that means that: 1. The working directory is not updated to reflect the filtered history. 2. We dump random files into "$tempdir/.." (e.g., if you use "-d /tmp/foo", we dump junk into /tmp). Fix it by recording the full path to the original directory and returning there explicitly. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
* | filter-branch: use git-sh-setup's ident parsing functionsJeff King2012-10-18
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This saves us some code, but it also reduces the number of processes we start for each filtered commit. Since we can parse both author and committer in the same sed invocation, we save one process. And since the new interface avoids tr, we save 4 processes. It also avoids using "tr", which has had some odd portability problems reported with from Solaris's xpg6 version. We also tweak one of the tests in t7003 to double-check that we are properly exporting the variables (because test-lib.sh exports GIT_AUTHOR_NAME, it will be automatically exported in subprograms.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since a0e4639 (filter-branch: fix ref rewriting with --subdirectory-filter, 2008-08-12) git-filter-branch has done nearest-ancestor rewriting when using a --subdirectory-filter. However, that rewriting strategy is also a useful building block in other tasks. For example, if you want to split out a subset of files from your history, you would typically call git filter-branch -- <refs> -- <files> But this fails for all refs that do not point directly to a commit that affects <files>, because their referenced commit will not be rewritten and the ref remains untouched. The code was already there for the --subdirectory-filter case, so just introduce an option that enables it independently.

(Why doesn't git filter-branch actually exit with an error when a shell command fails? I'm not sure why it was designed this way.)

This call always returns "false", even when we're running in a bare repository.

Instead, we use the straightforward git rev-list -1 $ref -- $filter_subdir to find the right ancestor. To justify this, note that the nearest ancestor is unique: We use the output of git rev-list --parents -- $filter_subdir to rewrite commits in the first pass, before any ref rewriting. If B is a non-merge commit, the only candidate is its parent. If it is a merge, there are two cases: - All sides of the merge bring the same subdirectory contents. Then rev-list already pruned away the merge in favour for just one of its parents, so there is only one candidate. - Some merge sides, or the merge outcome, differ. Then the merge is not pruned and can be rewritten directly. So it is always safe to use rev-list -1.

I had implemented it without understanding what --full-history does. Consider this history: C--M--N / / / A--B / \ / D-/ where B and C modify a path, X, in the same way so that the result is identical, and D does not modify it at all. With the path limiter X and without --full-history this is simplified to A--B i.e. only one of the paths via B or C is chosen. I had assumed that --full-history would keep both paths like this C--M / / A--B removing the path via D; but in fact it keeps the entire history. Currently, git does not have the capability to simplify to this intermediary case. However, the other extreme to keep the entire history is not wanted either in usual cases. I think we can expect that histories like the above are rare, and in the usual cases we want a simplified history. So let's remove --full-history again. (Concerning t7003, subsequent tests depend on what the test case sets up, so we can't just back out the entire test case.)

In System V, brackets are required (e.g., '[A-Z]'), whereas in POSIX they are not. We can mostly get around this by just using the bracket form for both sets, as in: tr '[A-Z] '[a-z]' in which case POSIX interpets this as "'[' becomes '['", which is OK. However, this doesn't work with multiple sequences, like: # rot13 tr '[A-Z][a-z]' '[N-Z][A-M][n-z][a-m]' where the POSIX version does not behave the same as the System V version. In this case, we must simply enumerate the sequence. This patch fixes problematic uses of tr in git scripts and test scripts in one of three ways: - if a single sequence, make sure it uses brackets - if multiple sequences, enumerate - if extra brackets (e.g., tr '[A]' 'a'), eliminate brackets Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

But the test forgot to tell the branch name to rewrite, and so git-filter-branch failed due to incorrect usage.

* filter-branch: update current branch when rewrittenJohannes Schindelin2007-10-16
| | | | | | | | Earlier, "git filter-branch --<options> HEAD" would not update the working tree after rewriting the branch. This commit fixes it. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org>
* filter-branch: introduce convenience function "skip_commit"Johannes Schindelin2007-08-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With this function, a commit filter can leave out unwanted commits (such as temporary commits). It does _not_ undo the changeset corresponding to that commit, but it _skips_ the revision. IOW no tree object is changed by this. If you like to commit early and often, but want to filter out all intermediate commits, marked by "@@@" in the commit message, you can now do this with git filter-branch --commit-filter ' if git cat-file commit $GIT_COMMIT | grep '@@@' > /dev/null; then skip_commit "$@"; else git commit-tree "$@"; fi' newbranch Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
* filter-branch: provide the convenience functions also for commit filtersJohannes Schindelin2007-08-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | Move the convenience functions to the top of git-filter-branch.sh, and return from the script when the environment variable SOURCE_FUNCTIONS is set. By sourcing git-filter-branch with that variable set automatically, all commit filters may access the convenience functions like "map".

* filter-branch: Big syntax change; support rewriting multiple refsJohannes Schindelin2007-07-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We used to take the first non-option argument as the name for the new branch. This syntax is not extensible to support rewriting more than just HEAD. Instead, we now have the following syntax: git filter-branch [<filter options>...] [<rev-list options>] All positive refs given in <rev-list options> are rewritten. Yes, in-place. If a ref was changed, the original head is stored in refs/original/$ref now, for your inspecting pleasure, in addition to the reflogs (since it is easier to inspect "git show-ref | grep original" than to inspect all the reflogs). This commit also adds the --force option to remove .git-rewrite/ and all refs from refs/original/ before filtering.

* filter-branch: fail gracefully when a filter failsJohannes Schindelin2007-07-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A common mistake is to provide a filter which fails unwantedly. For example, this will stop in the middle: git filter-branch --env-filter ' test $GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL = xyz && export GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL = abc' rewritten When $GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL is not "xyz", the test fails, and consequently the whole filter has a non-zero exit status. However, as demonstrated in this example, filter-branch would just stop, and the user would be none the wiser. Also, a failing msg-filter would not have been caught, as was the case with one of the tests. This patch fixes both issues, by paying attention to the exit status of msg-filter, and by saying what failed before exiting.

* filter-branch: add a test for the commit removal exampleJohannes Schindelin2007-07-03
| | | | | | | | | | In the man page, there is an example which describes how to remove single commits (although it keeps the changes which were not reverted in the next non-removed commit).

* filter-branch: subdirectory filter needs --full-historyJohannes Sixt2007-06-09
| | | | | | | | | | When two branches are merged that modify a subdirectory (possibly in different intermediate steps) such that both end up identical, then rev-list chooses only one branch. But when we filter history, we want to keep both branches. Therefore, we must use --full-history.

* Teach filter-branch about subdirectory filteringJohannes Schindelin2007-06-09
| | | | | | | | | | | With git-filter-branch --subdirectory-filter <subdirectory> you can get at the history, as seen by a certain subdirectory. The history of the rewritten branch will only contain commits that touched that subdirectory, and the subdirectory will be rewritten to be the new project root.

* filter-branch: Use rev-list arguments to specify revision ranges.Johannes Sixt2007-06-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A subset of commits in a branch used to be specified by options (-k, -r) as well as the branch tip itself (-s). It is more natural (for git users) to specify revision ranges like 'master..next' instead. This makes it so. If no range is specified it defaults to 'HEAD'. As a consequence, the new name of the filtered branch must be the first non-option argument. All remaining arguments are passed to 'git rev-list' unmodified. The tip of the branch that gets filtered is implied: It is the first commit that git rev-list would print for the specified range.
