Torsten Bögershausen	8462ff43e4	convert_to_git(): safe_crlf/checksafe becomes int conv_flags When calling convert_to_git(), the checksafe parameter defined what should happen if the EOL conversion (CRLF --> LF --> CRLF) does not roundtrip cleanly. In addition, it also defined if line endings should be renormalized (CRLF --> LF) or kept as they are. checksafe was an safe_crlf enum with these values: SAFE_CRLF_FALSE: do nothing in case of EOL roundtrip errors SAFE_CRLF_FAIL: die in case of EOL roundtrip errors SAFE_CRLF_WARN: print a warning in case of EOL roundtrip errors SAFE_CRLF_RENORMALIZE: change CRLF to LF SAFE_CRLF_KEEP_CRLF: keep all line endings as they are In some cases the integer value 0 was passed as checksafe parameter instead of the correct enum value SAFE_CRLF_FALSE. That was no problem because SAFE_CRLF_FALSE is defined as 0. FALSE/FAIL/WARN are different from RENORMALIZE and KEEP_CRLF. Therefore, an enum is not ideal. Let's use a integer bit pattern instead and rename the parameter to conv_flags to make it more generically usable. This allows us to extend the bit pattern in a subsequent commit.

Haaris Mehmood	5f9674243d	config: add --expiry-date Add --expiry-date as a data-type for config files when 'git config --get' is used. This will return any relative or fixed dates from config files as timestamps. This is useful for scripts (e.g. gc.reflogexpire) that work with timestamps so that '2.weeks' can be converted to a format acceptable by those scripts/functions. Following the convention of git_config_pathname(), move the helper function required for this feature from builtin/reflog.c to builtin/config.c where other similar functions exist (e.g. for --bool or --path), and match the order of parameters with other functions (i.e. output pointer as first parameter).

Jeff King	33c643bb08	Revert "color: check color.ui in git_default_config()" This reverts commit `136c8c8b8f`. That commit was trying to address a bug caused by `4c7f1819b3` (make color.ui default to 'auto', 2013-06-10), in which plumbing like diff-tree defaulted to "auto" color, but did not respect a "color.ui" directive to disable it. But it also meant that we started respecting "color.ui" set to "always". This was a known problem, but `4c7f1819b3` argued that nobody ought to be doing that. However, that turned out to be wrong, and we got a number of bug reports related to "add -p" regressing in v2.14.2. Let's revert `136c8c8b8`, fixing the regression to "add -p". This leaves the problem from `4c7f1819b3` unfixed, but: 1. It's a pretty obscure problem in the first place. I only noticed it while working on the color code, and we haven't got a single bug report or complaint about it. 2. We can make a more moderate fix on top by respecting "never" but not "always" for plumbing commands. This is just the minimal fix to go back to the working state we had before v2.14.2. Note that this isn't a pure revert. We now have a test in t3701 which shows off the "add -p" regression. This can be flipped to success.

Ben Peart	883e248b8a	fsmonitor: teach git to optionally utilize a file system monitor to speed up detecting new or changed files. When the index is read from disk, the fsmonitor index extension is used to flag the last known potentially dirty index entries. The registered core.fsmonitor command is called with the time the index was last updated and returns the list of files changed since that time. This list is used to flag any additional dirty cache entries and untracked cache directories. We can then use this valid state to speed up preload_index(), ie_match_stat(), and refresh_cache_ent() as they do not need to lstat() files to detect potential changes for those entries marked CE_FSMONITOR_VALID. In addition, if the untracked cache is turned on valid_cached_dir() can skip checking directories for new or changed files as fsmonitor will invalidate the cache only for those directories that have been identified as having potential changes. To keep the CE_FSMONITOR_VALID state accurate during git operations; when git updates a cache entry to match the current state on disk, it will now set the CE_FSMONITOR_VALID bit. Inversely, anytime git changes a cache entry, the CE_FSMONITOR_VALID bit is cleared and the corresponding untracked cache directory is marked invalid.

Jeff King	1cf01a34ea	consistently use "fallthrough" comments in switches Gcc 7 adds -Wimplicit-fallthrough, which can warn when a switch case falls through to the next case. The general idea is that the compiler can't tell if this was intentional or not, so you should annotate any intentional fall-throughs as such, leaving it to complain about any unannotated ones. There's a GNU __attribute__ which can be used for annotation, but of course we'd have to #ifdef it away on non-gcc compilers. Gcc will also recognize specially-formatted comments, which matches our current practice. Let's extend that practice to all of the unannotated sites (which I did look over and verify that they were behaving as intended). Ideally in each case we'd actually give some reasons in the comment about why we're falling through, or what we're falling through to. And gcc does support that with -Wimplicit-fallthrough=2, which relaxes the comment pattern matching to anything that contains "fallthrough" (or a variety of spelling variants). However, this isn't the default for -Wimplicit-fallthrough, nor for -Wextra. In the name of simplicity, it's probably better for us to support the default level, which requires "fallthrough" to be the only thing in the comment (modulo some window dressing like "else" and some punctuation; see the gcc manual for the complete set of patterns). This patch suppresses all warnings due to -Wimplicit-fallthrough. We might eventually want to add that to the DEVELOPER Makefile knob, but we should probably wait until gcc 7 is more widely adopted (since earlier versions will complain about the unknown warning type).

Jeff King	d9bd4cbb9c	config: flip return value of store_write_*() The store_write_section() and store_write_pairs() functions are basically high-level wrappers around write(). But their return values are flipped from our usual convention, using "1" for success and "0" for failure. Let's flip them to follow the usual write() conventions and update all callers. As these are local to config.c, it's unlikely that we'd have new callers in any topics in flight (which would be silently broken by our change). But just to be on the safe side, let's rename them to just write_section() and write_pairs(). That also accentuates their relationship with write().

Jeff King	06f46f237a	avoid "write_in_full(fd, buf, len) != len" pattern The return value of write_in_full() is either "-1", or the requested number of bytes[1]. If we make a partial write before seeing an error, we still return -1, not a partial value. This goes back to `f6aa66cb95` (write_in_full: really write in full or return error on disk full., 2007-01-11). So checking anything except "was the return value negative" is pointless. And there are a couple of reasons not to do so: 1. It can do a funny signed/unsigned comparison. If your "len" is signed (e.g., a size_t) then the compiler will promote the "-1" to its unsigned variant. This works out for "!= len" (unless you really were trying to write the maximum size_t bytes), but is a bug if you check "< len" (an example of which was fixed recently in config.c). We should avoid promoting the mental model that you need to check the length at all, so that new sites are not tempted to copy us. 2. Checking for a negative value is shorter to type, especially when the length is an expression. 3. Linus says so. In `d34cf19b89` (Clean up write_in_full() users, 2007-01-11), right after the write_in_full() semantics were changed, he wrote: I really wish every "write_in_full()" user would just check against "<0" now, but this fixes the nasty and stupid ones. Appeals to authority aside, this makes it clear that writing it this way does not have an intentional benefit. It's a historical curiosity that we never bothered to clean up (and which was undoubtedly cargo-culted into new sites). So let's convert these obviously-correct cases (this includes write_str_in_full(), which is just a wrapper for write_in_full()). [1] A careful reader may notice there is one way that write_in_full() can return a different value. If we ask write() to write N bytes and get a return value that is _larger_ than N, we could return a larger total. But besides the fact that this would imply a totally broken version of write(), it would already invoke undefined behavior. Our internal remaining counter is an unsigned size_t, which means that subtracting too many byte will wrap it around to a very large number. So we'll instantly begin reading off the end of the buffer, trying to write gigabytes (or petabytes) of data.

Jeff King	efacf609c8	config: avoid "write_in_full(fd, buf, len) < len" pattern The return type of write_in_full() is a signed ssize_t, because we may return "-1" on failure (even if we succeeded in writing some bytes). But "len" itself is may be an unsigned type (the function takes a size_t, but of course we may have something else in the calling function). So while it seems like: if (write_in_full(fd, buf, len) < len) die_errno("write error"); would trigger on error, it won't if "len" is unsigned. The compiler sees a signed/unsigned comparison and promotes the signed value, resulting in (size_t)-1, the highest possible size_t (or again, whatever type the caller has). This cannot possibly be smaller than "len", and so the conditional can never trigger. I scoured the code base for cases of this, but it turns out that these two in git_config_set_multivar_in_file_gently() are the only ones. Here our "len" is the difference between two size_t variables, making the result an unsigned size_t. We can fix this by just checking for a negative return value directly, as write_in_full() will never return any value except -1 or the full count. There's no addition to the test suite here, since you need to convince write() to fail in order to see the problem. The simplest reproduction recipe I came up with is to trigger ENOSPC: # make a limited-size filesystem dd if=/dev/zero of=small.disk bs=1M count=1 mke2fs small.disk mkdir mnt sudo mount -o loop small.disk mnt cd mnt sudo chown $USER:$USER . # make a config file with some content git config --file=config one.key value git config --file=config two.key value # now fill up the disk dd if=/dev/zero of=fill # and try to delete a key, which requires copying the rest # of the file to config.lock, and will fail on write() git config --file=config --unset two.key That final command should (and does after this patch) produce an error message due to the failed write, and leave the file intact. Instead, it silently ignores the failure and renames config.lock into place, leaving you with a totally empty config file!

Jeff King	bfffb48c5d	stop leaking lock structs in some simple cases Now that it's safe to declare a "struct lock_file" on the stack, we can do so (and avoid an intentional leak). These leaks were found by running t0000 and t0001 under valgrind (though certainly other similar leaks exist and just don't happen to be exercised by those tests). Initializing the lock_file's inner tempfile with NULL is not strictly necessary in these cases, but it's a good practice to model. It means that if we were to call a function like rollback_lock_file() on a lock that was never taken in the first place, it becomes a quiet noop (rather than undefined behavior). Likewise, it's always safe to rollback_lock_file() on a file that has already been committed or deleted, since that operation is a noop on an inactive lockfile (and that's why the case in config.c can drop the "if (lock)" check as we move away from using a pointer).

Jeff King	f991761eb8	config: use a static lock_file struct When modifying git config, we xcalloc() a struct lock_file but never free it. This is necessary because the tempfile code (upon which the locking code is built) requires that the resulting struct remain valid through the life of the program. However, it also confuses leak-checkers like valgrind because only the inner "struct tempfile" is still reachable; no pointer to the outer lock_file is kept. Other code paths solve this by using a single static lock struct. We can do the same here, because we know that we'll only lock and modify one config file at a time (and assertions within the lockfile code will ensure that this remains the case). That removes a real leak (when we fail to free the struct after locking fails) as well as removes the valgrind false positive. It also means that doing N sequential config-writes will use a constant amount of memory, rather than leaving stale lock_files for each. Note that since "lock" is no longer a pointer, it can't be NULL anymore. But that's OK. We used that feature only to avoid calling rollback_lock_file() on an already-committed lock. Since the lockfile code keeps its own "active" flag, it's a noop to rollback an inactive lock, and we don't have to worry about this ourselves.

Junio C Hamano	6e96cb5286	rerere: allow approxidate in gc.rerereResolved/gc.rerereUnresolved These two configuration variables are described in the documentation to take an expiry period expressed in the number of days: gc.rerereResolved:: Records of conflicted merge you resolved earlier are kept for this many days when 'git rerere gc' is run. The default is 60 days. gc.rerereUnresolved:: Records of conflicted merge you have not resolved are kept for this many days when 'git rerere gc' is run. The default is 15 days. There is no strong reason not to allow a more general "approxidate" expiry specification, e.g. "5.days.ago", or "never". Rename the config_get_expiry() helper introduced in the previous step to git_config_get_expiry_in_days() and move it to a more generic place, config.c, and use date.c::parse_expiry_date() to do so. Give it an ability to allow the caller to tell among three cases (i.e. there is no "gc.rerereResolved" config, there is and it is correctly parsed into the *expiry variable, and there was an error in parsing the given value). The current caller can work correctly without using the return value, though. In the future, we may find other variables that only allow an integer that specifies "this many days" or other unit of time, and when it happens we may need to drop "_days" suffix from the name of the function and instead pass the "scale" value as another parameter. But this will do for now. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	8 years ago

Martin Ågren	4666741823	config: make git_{config,parse}_maybe_bool equivalent Both of these act on a string `value` which they parse as a boolean. The "parse"-variant was introduced as a replacement for the "config"-variant which for historical reasons takes an unused argument `name`. That it was intended as a replacement is not obvious from commit `9a549d43` ("config.c: rename git_config_maybe_bool_text and export it as git_parse_maybe_bool", 2015-08-19), but that is what the background on the mailing list suggests [1]. However, these two functions do not parse `value` in exactly the same way. In particular, git_config_maybe_bool accepts integers (0 for false, non-0 for true). This means there are two slightly different definitions of "maybe_bool" in the code-base, and that every time a call to git_config_maybe_bool is changed to use git_parse_maybe_bool, it risks breaking someone's workflow. Move the implementation of "config" into "parse" and make the latter a trivial wrapper. This also fixes the only user of git_parse_maybe_bool, `git push --signed=..`.

Jeff King	136c8c8b8f	color: check color.ui in git_default_config() Back in prehistoric times, our decision on whether or not to show color by default relied on using a config callback that either did or didn't load color config like color.diff. When we introduced color.ui, we put it in the same boat: commands had to manually respect it by using git_color_config() or its git_color_default_config() convenience wrapper. But in `4c7f1819b` (make color.ui default to 'auto', 2013-06-10), that changed. Since then, we default color.ui to auto in all programs, meaning that even plumbing commands like "git diff-tree --pretty" might colorize the output. Nobody seems to have complained in the intervening years, presumably because the "is stdout a tty" check does a good job of catching the right cases. But that leaves an interesting curiosity: color.ui defaults to auto even in plumbing, but you can't actually _disable_ the color via config. So if you really hate color and set "color.ui" to false, diff-tree will still show color (but porcelain like git-diff won't). Nobody noticed that either, probably because very few people disable color. One could argue that the plumbing should _always_ disable color unless an explicit --color option is given on the command line. But in practice, this creates a lot of complications for scripts which do want plumbing to show user-visible output. They can't just pass "--color" blindly; they need to check the user's config and decide what to send. Given that nobody has complained about the current behavior, let's assume it's a good path, and follow it to its conclusion: supporting color.ui everywhere. Note that you can create havoc by setting color.ui=always in your config, but that's more or less already the case. We could disallow it entirely, but it is handy for one-offs like: git -c color.ui=always foo >not-a-tty when "foo" does not take a --color option itself.

Brandon Williams	3b256228a6	config: read config from a repository object Teach the config machinery to read config information from a repository object. This involves storing a 'struct config_set' inside the repository object and adding a number of functions (repo_config) to be able to query a repository's config. The current config API enables lazy-loading of the config. This means that when 'git_config_get_int()' is called, if the_config_set hasn't been populated yet, then it will be populated and properly initialized by reading the necessary config files (system wide .gitconfig, user's home .gitconfig, and the repository's config). To maintain this paradigm, the new API to read from a repository object's config will also perform this lazy-initialization. Since both APIs (git_config_get and repo_config_get) have the same semantics we can migrate the default config to be stored within 'the_repository' and just have the 'git_config_get' family of functions redirect to the 'repo_config_get*' functions.

Sahil Dua	52d59cc645	branch: add a --copy (-c) option to go with --move (-m) Add the ability to --copy a branch and its reflog and configuration, this uses the same underlying machinery as the --move (-m) option except the reflog and configuration is copied instead of being moved. This is useful for e.g. copying a topic branch to a new version, e.g. work to work-2 after submitting the work topic to the list, while preserving all the tracking info and other configuration that goes with the branch, and unlike --move keeping the other already-submitted branch around for reference. Like --move, when the source branch is the currently checked out branch the HEAD is moved to the destination branch. In the case of --move we don't really have a choice (other than remaining on a detached HEAD) and in order to keep the functionality consistent, we are doing it in similar way for --copy too. The most common usage of this feature is expected to be moving to a new topic branch which is a copy of the current one, in that case moving to the target branch is what the user wants, and doesn't unexpectedly behave differently than --move would. One outstanding caveat of this implementation is that: git checkout maint && git checkout master && git branch -c topic && git checkout - Will check out 'maint' instead of 'master'. This is because the @{-N} feature (or its -1 shorthand "-") relies on HEAD reflogs created by the checkout command, so in this case we'll checkout maint instead of master, as the user might expect.

Brandon Williams	dc8441fdb4	config: don't implicitly use gitdir or commondir 'git_config_with_options()' takes a 'config_options' struct which contains feilds for 'git_dir' and 'commondir'. If those feilds happen to be NULL the config machinery falls back to querying global repository state. Let's change this and instead use these fields in the 'config_options' struct explicilty all the time. Since the API is slightly changing to require these two fields to be set if callers want the config machinery to load the repository's config, let's change the name to 'config_with_optison()'. This allows the config machinery to not implicitly rely on any global repository state.

Brandon Williams	a577fb5fdc	config: respect commondir Worktrees present an interesting problem when it comes to the config. Historically we could assume that the per-repository config lives at 'gitdir/config', but since worktrees were introduced this isn't the case anymore. There is currently no way to specify per-worktree configuration, and as such the repository config is shared with all worktrees and is located at 'commondir/config'. Many users of the config machinery correctly set 'config_options.git_dir' with the repository's commondir, allowing the config to be properly loaded when operating in a worktree. But other's, like 'read_early_config()', set 'config_options.git_dir' with the repository's gitdir which can be incorrect when using worktrees. To fix this issue, and to make things less ambiguous, lets add a 'commondir' field to the 'config_options' struct and have all callers properly set both the 'git_dir' and 'commondir' fields so that the config machinery is able to properly find the repository's config.

Brandon Williams	d3fb71b3cb	setup: teach discover_git_directory to respect the commondir Currently 'discover_git_directory' only looks at the gitdir to determine if a git directory was discovered. This causes a problem in the event that the gitdir which was discovered was in fact a per-worktree git directory and not the common git directory. This is because the repository config, which is checked to verify the repository's format, is stored in the commondir and not in the per-worktree gitdir. Correct this behavior by checking the config stored in the commondir. It will also be of use for callers to have access to the commondir, so lets also return that upon successfully discovering a git directory.

Johannes Schindelin	e2e1425107	config: report correct line number upon error When get_value() parses a key/value pair, it is possible that the line number is decreased (because the \n has been consumed already) before the key/value pair is passed to the callback function, to allow for the correct line to be attributed in case of an error. However, when git_parse_source() asks get_value() to parse the key/value pair, the error reporting is performed after get_value() returns. Which means that we have to be careful not to increase the line number in get_value() after the callback function returned an error.

Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason	0624c63ce6	config: match both symlink & realpath versions in IncludeIf.gitdir:* Change the conditional inclusion mechanism to support e.g. gitdir:~/git_tree/repo where ~/git_tree is a symlink to /mnt/stuff/repo. This worked in the initial version of this facility[1], but regressed later in the series while solving a related bug[2]. Now gitdir: will match against the symlinked path (e.g. gitdir:~/git_tree/repo) in addition to the current /mnt/stuff/repo path. Since this is already in a release version note in the documentation that this behavior changed, so users who expect their configuration to work on both v2.13.0 and some future version of git with this fix aren't utterly confused. 1. commit `3efd0bedc6` ("config: add conditional include", 2017-03-01) 2. commit `86f9515708` ("config: resolve symlinks in conditional include's patterns", 2017-04-05) Signed-off-by: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <avarab@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	8 years ago

Johannes Schindelin	dddbad728c	timestamp_t: a new data type for timestamps Git's source code assumes that unsigned long is at least as precise as time_t. Which is incorrect, and causes a lot of problems, in particular where unsigned long is only 32-bit (notably on Windows, even in 64-bit versions). So let's just use a more appropriate data type instead. In preparation for this, we introduce the new `timestamp_t` data type. By necessity, this is a very, very large patch, as it has to replace all timestamps' data type in one go. As we will use a data type that is not necessarily identical to `time_t`, we need to be very careful to use `time_t` whenever we interact with the system functions, and `timestamp_t` everywhere else.

Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy	e145a0bc9b	config: correct file reading order in read_early_config() Config file reading order is important because each file can override values in the previous files and this is expected behavior. Normally we read in this order, all in do_git_config_sequence(): 1. $HOME/.gitconfig 2. $GIT_DIR/config 3. config from command line However in read_early_config() the order may be swapped a bit if setup_git_directory() has not been called: 1. $HOME/.gitconfig 2. $GIT_DIR/config is NOT read because .git dir is not found _yet_ 3. config from command line 4. $GIT_DIR/config is now READ (after discover_git_directory() call) The reading at step 4 could override config at step 3, which is not the expectation. Now that we could pass the .git dir around, we could feed discover_git_directory() back to step 2, so that it works again, and remove step 4.

Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy	2185fde563	config: handle conditional include when $GIT_DIR is not set up If setup_git_directory() and friends have not been called, get_git_dir() (because of includeIf.gitdir:XXX) would lead to die("BUG: setup_git_env called without repository"); There are two cases when a config file could be read before $GIT_DIR is located. The first one is check_repository_format(), where we read just the one file $GIT_DIR/config to check if we could understand this repository. This case should be safe. We do not parse include directives, which can only be triggered from git_config_with_options, but setup code uses a lower-level function. The concerned variables should never be hidden away behind includes anyway. The second one is triggered in check_pager_config() when we're about to run an external git command. We might be able to find $GIT_DIR in this case, which is exactly what read_early_config() does (and also is what check_pager_config() uses). Conditional includes and get_git_dir() could be triggered by the first git_config_with_options() call there, before discover_git_directory() is used as a fallback $GIT_DIR detection. Detect this special "early reading" case, pass down the $GIT_DIR, either from previous setup or detected by discover_git_directory(), and make conditional include use it.

Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy	86f9515708	config: resolve symlinks in conditional include's patterns $GIT_DIR returned by get_git_dir() is normalized, with all symlinks resolved (see setup_work_tree function). In order to match paths (or patterns) against $GIT_DIR char-by-char, they have to be normalized too. There is a note in config.txt about this, that the user need to resolve symlinks by themselves if needed. The problem is, we allow certain path expansion, '~/' and './', for convenience and can't ask the user to resolve symlinks in these expansions. Make sure the expanded paths have all symlinks resolved. PS. The strbuf_realpath(&text, get_git_dir(), 1) is still needed because get_git_dir() may return relative path.

Johannes Schindelin	1a27409ae8	read_early_config(): really discover .git/ Earlier, we punted and simply assumed that we are in the top-level directory of the project, and that there is no .git file but a .git/ directory so that we can read directly from .git/config. However, that is not necessarily true. We may be in a subdirectory. Or .git may be a gitfile. Or the environment variable GIT_DIR may be set. To remedy this situation, we just refactored the way setup_git_directory() discovers the .git/ directory, to make it reusable, and more importantly, to leave all global variables and the current working directory alone. Let's discover the .git/ directory correctly in read_early_config() by using that new function. This fixes 4 known breakages in t7006.

And when this is the case, the repository config is handled already, so we do not have to do that again explicitly. Let's just use the same function, have_git_dir(), to determine whether we have to handle .git/config explicitly.

Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy	3efd0bedc6	config: add conditional include Sometimes a set of repositories want to share configuration settings among themselves that are distinct from other such sets of repositories. A user may work on two projects, each of which have multiple repositories, and use one user.email for one project while using another for the other. Setting $GIT_DIR/.config works, but if the penalty of forgetting to update $GIT_DIR/.config is high (especially when you end up cloning often), it may not be the best way to go. Having the settings in ~/.gitconfig, which would work for just one set of repositories, would not well in such a situation. Having separate ${HOME}s may add more problems than it solves. Extend the include.path mechanism that lets a config file include another config file, so that the inclusion can be done only when some conditions hold. Then ~/.gitconfig can say "include config-project-A only when working on project-A" for each project A the user works on. In this patch, the only supported grouping is based on $GIT_DIR (in absolute path), so you would need to group repositories by directory, or something like that to take advantage of it. We already have include.path for unconditional includes. This patch goes with includeIf.<condition>.path to make it clearer that a condition is required. The new config has the same backward compatibility approach as include.path: older git versions that don't understand includeIf will simply ignore them.
