Heba Waly	3a1b3415d9	attr: move doc to attr.h Move the documentation from Documentation/technical/api-gitattributes.txt to attr.h as it's easier for the developers to find the usage information beside the code instead of looking for it in another doc file. Also documentation/technical/api-gitattributes.txt is removed because the information it has is now redundant and it'll be hard to keep it up to date and synchronized with the documentation in the header file.

Torsten Bögershausen	d64324cb60	Make git_check_attr() a void function git_check_attr() returns always 0. Remove all the error handling code of the callers, which is never executed.

Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy	c4500e251f	attr: remove index from git_attr_set_direction() Since attr checking API now take the index, there's no need to set an index in advance with this call. Most call sites are straightforward because they either pass the_index or NULL (which defaults back to the_index previously). There's only one suspicious call site in unpack-trees.c where it sets a different index. This code in unpack-trees is about to check out entries from the new/temporary index after merging is done in it. The attributes will be used by entry.c code to do crlf conversion if needed. entry.c now respects struct checkout's istate field, and this field is correctly set in unpack-trees.c, there should be no regression from this change.

Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy	7a400a2c02	attr: remove an implicit dependency on the_index Make the attr API take an index_state instead of assuming the_index in attr code. All call sites are converted blindly to keep the patch simple and retain current behavior. Individual call sites may receive further updates to use the right index instead of the_index. There is one ugly temporary workaround added in attr.c that needs some more explanation. Commit `c24f3abace` (apply: file commited with CRLF should roundtrip diff and apply - 2017-08-19) forces one convert_to_git() call to NOT read the index at all. But what do you know, we read it anyway by falling back to the_index. When "istate" from convert_to_git is now propagated down to read_attr_from_array() we will hit segfault somewhere inside read_blob_data_from_index. The right way of dealing with this is to kill "use_index" variable and only follow "istate" but at this stage we are not ready for that: while most git_attr_set_direction() calls just passes the_index to be assigned to use_index, unpack-trees passes a different one which is used by entry.c code, which has no way to know what index to use if we delete use_index. So this has to be done later. Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclouds@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	6 years ago

Brandon Williams	b0db704652	pathspec: allow querying for attributes The pathspec mechanism is extended via the new ":(attr:eol=input)pattern/to/match" syntax to filter paths so that it requires paths to not just match the given pattern but also have the specified attrs attached for them to be chosen.

Brandon Williams	f0dd042148	attr: reformat git_attr_set_direction() function Move the 'git_attr_set_direction()' up to be closer to the variables that it modifies as well as a small formatting by renaming the variable 'new' to 'new_direction' so that it is more descriptive. Update the comment about how 'direction' is used to read the state of the world. It should be noted that callers of 'git_attr_set_direction()' should ensure that other threads are not making calls into the attribute system until after the call to 'git_attr_set_direction()' completes. This function essentially acts as reset button for the attribute system and should be handled with care.

Brandon Williams	dc81cf377c	attr: store attribute stack in attr_check structure The last big hurdle towards a thread-safe API for the attribute system is the reliance on a global attribute stack that is modified during each call into the attribute system. This patch removes this global stack and instead a stack is stored locally in each attr_check instance. This opens up the opportunity for future optimizations to customize the attribute stack for the attributes that a particular attr_check struct is interested in. One caveat with pushing the attribute stack into the attr_check structure is that the attribute system now needs to keep track of all active attr_check instances. Due to the direction mechanism the stack needs to be dropped when the direction is switched. In order to ensure correctness when the direction is changed the attribute system needs to iterate through all active attr_check instances and drop each of their stacks.

Brandon Williams	685b292575	attr: eliminate global check_all_attr array Currently there is a reliance on 'check_all_attr' which is a global array of 'attr_check_item' items which is used to store the value of each attribute during the collection process. This patch eliminates this global and instead creates an array per 'attr_check' instance which is then used in the attribute collection process. This brings the attribute system one step closer to being thread-safe. Signed-off-by: Brandon Williams <bmwill@google.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	8 years ago
Brandon Williams	1a600b7555	attr: use hashmap for attribute dictionary The current implementation of the attribute dictionary uses a custom hashtable. This modernizes the dictionary by converting it to the builtin 'hashmap' structure. Also, in order to enable a threaded API in the future add an accompanying mutex which must be acquired prior to accessing the dictionary of interned attributes.

Junio C Hamano	7f8641112d	attr: convert git_all_attrs() to use "struct attr_check" This updates the other two ways the attribute check is done via an array of "struct attr_check_item" elements. These two niches appear only in "git check-attr". * The caller does not know offhand what attributes it wants to ask about and cannot use attr_check_initl() to prepare the attr_check structure. * The caller may not know what attributes it wants to ask at all, and instead wants to learn everything that the given path has. Such a caller can call attr_check_alloc() to allocate an empty attr_check, and then call attr_check_append() to add attribute names one by one.

Junio C Hamano	37293768d0	attr: (re)introduce git_check_attr() and struct attr_check A common pattern to check N attributes for many paths is to (1) prepare an array A of N attr_check_item items; (2) call git_attr() to intern the N attribute names and fill A; (3) repeatedly call git_check_attrs() for path with N and A; A look-up for these N attributes for a single path P scans the entire attr_stack, starting from the .git/info/attributes file and then .gitattributes file in the directory the path P is in, going upwards to find .gitattributes file found in parent directories. An earlier commit `06a604e6` (attr: avoid heavy work when we know the specified attr is not defined, 2014-12-28) tried to optimize out this scanning for one trivial special case: when the attribute being sought is known not to exist, we do not have to scan for it. While this may be a cheap and effective heuristic, it would not work well when N is (much) more than 1. What we would want is a more customized way to skip irrelevant entries in the attribute stack, and the definition of irrelevance is tied to the set of attributes passed to git_check_attrs() call, i.e. the set of attributes being sought. The data necessary for this optimization needs to live alongside the set of attributes, but a simple array of git_attr_check_elem simply does not have any place for that. Introduce "struct attr_check" that contains N, the number of attributes being sought, and A, the array that holds N attr_check_item items, and a function git_check_attr() that takes a path P and this structure as its parameters. This structure can later be extended to hold extra data necessary for optimization. Also, to make it easier to write the first two steps in common cases, introduce git_attr_check_initl() helper function, which takes a NULL-terminated list of attribute names and initialize this structure.

Junio C Hamano	7bd18054d2	attr: rename function and struct related to checking attributes The traditional API to check attributes is to prepare an N-element array of "struct git_attr_check" and pass N and the array to the function "git_check_attr()" as arguments. In preparation to revamp the API to pass a single structure, in which these N elements are held, rename the type used for these individual array elements to "struct attr_check_item" and rename the function to "git_check_attrs()".

Gary V. Vaughan	4b05548fc0	enums: omit trailing comma for portability Without this patch at least IBM VisualAge C 5.0 (I have 5.0.2) on AIX 5.1 fails to compile git. enum style is inconsistent already, with some enums declared on one line, some over 3 lines with the enum values all on the middle line, sometimes with 1 enum value per line... and independently of that the trailing comma is sometimes present and other times absent, often mixing with/without trailing comma styles in a single file, and sometimes in consecutive enum declarations. Clearly, omitting the comma is the more portable style, and this patch changes all enum declarations to use the portable omitted dangling comma style consistently. Signed-off-by: Gary V.

Junio C Hamano	06f33c1735	Read attributes from the index that is being checked out Traditionally we used .gitattributes file from the work tree if exists, and otherwise read from the index as a fallback. When switching to a branch that has an updated .gitattributes file, and entries in it give different attributes to other paths being checked out, we should instead read from the .gitattributes in the index. This breaks a use case of fixing incorrect entries in the .gitattributes in the work tree (without adding it to the index) and checking other paths out, though. $ edit .gitattributes ;# mark foo.dat as binary $ rm foo.dat $ git checkout foo.dat Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	16 years ago
Junio C Hamano	a5e92abde6	Fix funny types used in attribute value representation It was bothering me a lot that I abused small integer values casted to (void ) to represent non string values in gitattributes. This corrects it by making the type of attribute values (const char ), and using the address of a few statically allocated character buffer to denote true/false. Unset attributes are represented as having NULLs as their values. Added in-header documentation to explain how git_checkattr() routine should be called.

Junio C Hamano	515106fa13	Allow more than true/false to attributes. This allows you to define three values (and possibly more) to each attribute: true, false, and unset. Typically the handlers that notice and act on attribute values treat "unset" attribute to mean "do your default thing" (e.g. crlf that is unset would trigger "guess from contents"), so being able to override a setting to an unset state is actually useful. - If you want to set the attribute value to true, have an entry in .gitattributes file that mentions the attribute name; e.g. .o binary - If you want to set the attribute value explicitly to false, use '-'; e.g. .a -diff - If you want to make the attribute value _unset_, perhaps to override an earlier entry, use '!'; e.g. *.a -diff c.i.a !diff This also allows string values to attributes, with the natural syntax: attrname=attrvalue but you cannot use it, as nobody takes notice and acts on it yet.

Junio C Hamano	d0bfd026a8	Add basic infrastructure to assign attributes to paths This adds the basic infrastructure to assign attributes to paths, in a way similar to what the exclusion mechanism does based on $GIT_DIR/info/exclude and .gitignore files. An attribute is just a simple string that does not contain any whitespace. They can be specified in $GIT_DIR/info/attributes file, and .gitattributes file in each directory. Each line in these files defines a pattern matching rule. Similar to the exclusion mechanism, a later match overrides an earlier match in the same file, and entries from .gitattributes file in the same directory takes precedence over the ones from parent directories. Lines in $GIT_DIR/info/attributes file are used as the lowest precedence default rules. A line is either a comment (an empty line, or a line that begins with a '#'), or a rule, which is a whitespace separated list of tokens. The first token on the line is a shell glob pattern. The rest are names of attributes, each of which can optionally be prefixed with '!'. Such a line means "if a path matches this glob, this attribute is set (or unset -- if the attribute name is prefixed with '!'). For glob matching, the same "if the pattern does not have a slash in it, the basename of the path is matched with fnmatch(3) against the pattern, otherwise, the path is matched with the pattern with FNM_PATHNAME" rule as the exclusion mechanism is used. This does not define what an attribute means. Tying an attribute to various effects it has on git operation for paths that have it will be specified separately.
