Jeff King	3733e69464	use xmallocz to avoid size arithmetic We frequently allocate strings as xmalloc(len + 1), where the extra 1 is for the NUL terminator. This can be done more simply with xmallocz, which also checks for integer overflow. There's no case where switching xmalloc(n+1) to xmallocz(n) is wrong; the result is the same length, and malloc made no guarantees about what was in the buffer anyway. But in some cases, we can stop manually placing NUL at the end of the allocated buffer. But that's only safe if it's clear that the contents will always fill the buffer. In each case where this patch does so, I manually examined the control flow, and I tried to err on the side of caution.

Jeff King	b32fa95fd8	convert trivial cases to ALLOC_ARRAY Each of these cases can be converted to use ALLOC_ARRAY or REALLOC_ARRAY, which has two advantages: 1. It automatically checks the array-size multiplication for overflow. 2. It always uses sizeof(*array) for the element-size, so that it can never go out of sync with the declared type of the array.

René Scharfe	8828f2985f	use child_process_init() to initialize struct child_process variables Call child_process_init() instead of zeroing the memory of variables of type struct child_process by hand before use because the former is both clearer and shorter.

René Scharfe	d318027932	run-command: introduce CHILD_PROCESS_INIT Most struct child_process variables are cleared using memset first after declaration. Provide a macro, CHILD_PROCESS_INIT, that can be used to initialize them statically instead. That's shorter, doesn't require a function call and is slightly more readable (especially given that we already have STRBUF_INIT, ARGV_ARRAY_INIT etc.).

Jeff King	cf4fff579e	refactor skip_prefix to return a boolean The skip_prefix() function returns a pointer to the content past the prefix, or NULL if the prefix was not found. While this is nice and simple, in practice it makes it hard to use for two reasons: 1. When you want to conditionally skip or keep the string as-is, you have to introduce a temporary variable. For example: tmp = skip_prefix(buf, "foo"); if (tmp) buf = tmp; 2. It is verbose to check the outcome in a conditional, as you need extra parentheses to silence compiler warnings. For example: if ((cp = skip_prefix(buf, "foo")) /* do something with cp */ Both of these make it harder to use for long if-chains, and we tend to use starts_with() instead. However, the first line of "do something" is often to then skip forward in buf past the prefix, either using a magic constant or with an extra strlen(3) (which is generally computed at compile time, but means we are repeating ourselves). This patch refactors skip_prefix() to return a simple boolean, and to provide the pointer value as an out-parameter. If the prefix is not found, the out-parameter is untouched. This lets you write: if (skip_prefix(arg, "foo ", &arg)) do_foo(arg); else if (skip_prefix(arg, "bar ", &arg)) do_bar(arg); Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	11 years ago
Jeff King	5eb7f7ead8	run_column_filter: use argv_array We currently set up the argv array by hand in a fixed-size stack-local array. Using an argv array is more readable, as it handles buffer allocation us (not to mention makes it obvious we do not overflow the array). However, there's a more subtle benefit, too. We leave the function having run start_command (with the child_process in a static global), and then later run finish_command from another function. That means when we run finish_command, neither column_process.argv nor the memory it points to is valid any longer. Most of the time finish_command does not bother looking at argv, but it may if it encounters an error (e.g., waitpid failure or signal death). This is unusual, which is why nobody has noticed. But by using run-command's built-in argv_array, the memory ownership is handled for us automatically.

Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy	b27004eb32	column: support piping stdout to external git-column process For too complicated output handling, it'd be easier to just spawn git-column and redirect stdout to it. This patch provides helpers to do that. Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclouds@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	13 years ago
Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy	3f8eccbe16	column: add dense layout support Normally all cells (and in turn columns) share the same width. This layout mode can waste space because one long item can stretch our all columns. With COL_DENSE enabled, column width is calculated indepdendently. All columns are shrunk to minimum, then it attempts to push cells of the last row over to the next column with hope that everything still fits even there's one row less. The process is repeated until the new layout cannot fit in given width any more, or there's only one row left (perfect!). Apparently, this mode consumes more cpu than the old one, but it makes better use of terminal space. For layouting one or two screens, cpu usage should not be detectable. This patch introduces option handling code besides layout modes and enable/disable to expose this feature as "dense". The feature can be turned off by specifying "nodense".

Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy	077539d734	column: add columnar layout COL_COLUMN and COL_ROW fill column by column (or row by row respectively), given the terminal width and how many space between columns. All cells have equal width. Strings are supposed to be in UTF-8. Valid ANSI escape strings are OK.

Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy	7e29b8254f	Add column layout skeleton and git-column A column option string consists of many token separated by either a space or a comma. A token belongs to one of three groups: - enabling: always, never and auto - layout mode: currently plain (which does not layout at all) - other future tuning flags git-column can be used to pipe output to from a command that wants column layout, but not to mess with its own output code. Simpler output code can be changed to use column layout code directly.
