What's cooking in git.git (May 2017, #06; Mon, 22) --------------------------------------------------
Here are the topics that have been cooking. Commits prefixed with '-' are only in 'pu' (proposed updates) while commits prefixed with '+' are in 'next'. The ones marked with '.' do not appear in any of the integration branches, but I am still holding onto them. The tip of 'next' has been rewound, and the first batch of topics for the next release have been merged to 'master'. I tentatively wrote doen that this cycle will last for 11 weeks, completing at the end of July. You can find the changes described here in the integration branches of the repositories listed at http://git-blame.blogspot.com/p/git-public-repositories.html -------------------------------------------------- [New Topics] * ab/conditional-config-with-symlinks (2017-05-17) 1 commit - config: match both symlink & realpath versions in IncludeIf.gitdir:* The recently introduced "[includeIf "gitdir:$dir"] path=..." mechansim has further been taught to take symlinks into account. The directory "$dir" specified in "gitdir:$dir" may be a symlink to a real location, not something that $(getcwd) may return. In such a case, a realpath of "$dir" is compared with the real path of the current repository to determine if the contents from the named path should be included. Will merge to 'next'. * bm/interpret-trailers-cut-line-is-eom (2017-05-18) 1 commit - interpret-trailers: honor the cut line "git interpret-trailers", when used as GIT_EDITOR for "git commit -v", looked for and appended to a trailer block at the very end, i.e. at the end of the "diff" output. The command has been corrected to pay attention to the cut-mark line "commit -v" adds to the buffer---the real trailer block should appear just before it. Will merge to 'next'. * jc/skip-test-in-the-middle (2017-05-18) 2 commits - t5545: enhance test coverage when no http server is installed - test: allow skipping the remainder A recent update to t5545-push-options.sh started skipping all the tests in the script when a web server testing is disabled or unavailable, not just the ones that require a web server. Non HTTP tests have been salvaged to always run in this script. Will merge to 'next'. * jk/alternate-ref-optim (2017-05-18) 1 commit - t5400: avoid concurrent writes into a trace file A test allowed both "git push" and "git receive-pack" on the other end write their traces into the same file. This is OK on platforms that allows atomically appending to a file opened with O_APPEND, but on other platforms led to a mangled output, causing intermittent test failures. This has been fixed by disabling traces from "receive-pack" in the test. Will merge to 'next'. * mh/packed-ref-store-prep (2017-05-18) 23 commits - cache_ref_iterator_begin(): avoid priming unneeded directories - ref-filter: limit traversal to prefix - create_ref_entry(): remove `check_name` option - refs_ref_iterator_begin(): handle `GIT_REF_PARANOIA` - read_packed_refs(): report unexpected fopen() failures - read_packed_refs(): do more of the work of reading packed refs - get_packed_ref_cache(): assume "packed-refs" won't change while locked - should_pack_ref(): new function, extracted from `files_pack_refs()` - ref_update_reject_duplicates(): add a sanity check - ref_update_reject_duplicates(): use `size_t` rather than `int` - ref_update_reject_duplicates(): expose function to whole refs module - ref_transaction_commit(): break into multiple functions - files_transaction_cleanup(): new helper function - files_ref_store: put the packed files lock directly in this struct - files-backend: move `lock` member to `files_ref_store` - lockfile: add a new method, is_lock_file_locked() - ref_store: take `logmsg` parameter when deleting references - refs: use `size_t` indexes when iterating over ref transaction updates - refs_ref_iterator_begin(): don't check prefixes redundantly - prefix_ref_iterator: don't trim too much - ref_iterator_begin_fn(): fix docstring - refs.h: clarify docstring for the ref_transaction_update()-related fns - t3600: clean up permissions test properly The implementation of "ref" API around the "packed refs" have been cleaned up, in preparation for further changes. Expecting a reroll. * sl/clean-d-ignored-fix (2017-05-22) 7 commits - SQUASH???? - clean: teach clean -d to skip dirs containing ignored files - dir: expose cmp_name() and check_contains() - dir: hide untracked contents of untracked dirs - dir: recurse into untracked dirs for ignored files - t7061: status --ignored should search untracked dirs - t7300: clean -d should skip dirs with ignored files "git clean -d" used to clean directories that has ignored files, even though the command should not lose ignored ones without "-x". This has been corrected. * tg/stash-push-fixup (2017-05-17) 1 commit - completion: add git stash push The shell completion script (in contrib/) learned "git stash" has a new "push" subcommand. Will merge to 'next'. * ab/sha1dc (2017-05-22) 3 commits - sha1collisiondetection: automatically enable when submodule is populated - sha1dc: optionally use sha1collisiondetection as a submodule - sha1dc: update from upstream The "collission-detecting" implementation of SHA-1 hash we borrowed from is replaced by directly binding the upstream project as our submodule. Will keep in 'pu' for a few CI cycles. Impact to the various build and release infrastructure of using submodule is not yet fully known, but this lets us dip our toes. * bp/fsmonitor (2017-05-21) 10 commits - SQUASH??? - SQUASH??? - SQUASH??? - fsmonitor: add a sample query-fsmonitor hook script for Watchman - fsmonitor: add documentation for the fsmonitor extension. - fsmonitor: add test cases for fsmonitor extension - SQUASH??? - fsmonitor: teach git to optionally utilize a file system monitor to speed up detecting new or changed files. - dir: make lookup_untracked() available outside of dir.c - bswap: add 64 bit endianness helper get_be64 Expecting reroll. * dk/send-email-avoid-net-smtp-ssl-when-able (2017-05-20) 1 commit - send-email: Net::SMTP::SSL is obsolete, use only when necessary "git send-email" now uses Net::SMTP::SSL, which is obsolete, only when needed. Recent versions of Net::SMTP can do TLS natively. Will merge to 'next'. * jc/name-rev-lw-tag (2017-03-29) 2 commits - name-rev: favor describing with tags and use committer date to tiebreak - name-rev: refactor logic to see if a new candidate is a better name (this branch is used by mg/name-rev-debug.) "git describe --contains" penalized light-weight tags so much that they were almost never considered. Instead, give them about the same chance to be considered as an annotated tag that is the same age as the underlying commit would. Will merge to 'next'. * jk/diff-blob (2017-05-20) 15 commits - diff: use blob path for blob/file diffs - diff: use pending "path" if it is available - diff: use the word "path" instead of "name" for blobs - diff: pass whole pending entry in blobinfo - handle_revision_arg: record paths for pending objects - handle_revision_arg: record modes for "a..b" endpoints - t4063: add tests of direct blob diffs - get_sha1_with_context: dynamically allocate oc->path - get_sha1_with_context: always initialize oc->symlink_path - sha1_name: consistently refer to object_context as "oc" - handle_revision_arg: add handle_dotdot() helper - handle_revision_arg: hoist ".." check out of range parsing - handle_revision_arg: stop using "dotdot" as a generic pointer - handle_revision_arg: simplify commit reference lookups - handle_revision_arg: reset "dotdot" consistently The result from "git diff" that compares two blobs, e.g. "git diff $commit1:$path $commit2:$path", used to be shown with the full object name as given on the command line, but it is more natural to use the $path in the output and use it to look up .gitattributes. Needs review. * jk/ignore-broken-tags-when-ignoring-missing-links (2017-05-20) 1 commit - revision.c: ignore broken tags with ignore_missing_links Tag objects, which are not reachable from any ref, that point at missing objects were mishandled by "git gc" and friends (they should silently be ignored instead) Will merge to 'next'. * js/bs-is-a-dir-sep-on-windows (2017-05-20) 2 commits - Windows: do not treat a path with backslashes as a remote's nick name - mingw.h: permit arguments with side effects for is_dir_sep "foo\bar\baz" in "git fetch foo\bar\baz", even though there is no slashes in it, cannot be a nickname for a remote on Windows, as that is likely to be a pathname on a local filesystem. Will merge to 'next'. * js/larger-timestamps (2017-05-20) 1 commit - name-rev: change a "long" variable to timestamp_t A follow-up hotfix for a topic already in 'master'. Will merge to 'next'. * km/log-showsignature-doc (2017-05-20) 1 commit - config.txt: add an entry for log.showSignature Will merge to 'next'. * kn/ref-filter-branch-list (2017-05-20) 1 commit - ref-filter: resolve HEAD when parsing %(HEAD) atom "git for-each-ref --format=..." with %(HEAD) in the format used to resolve the HEAD symref as many times as it had processed refs, which was wasteful, and "git branch" shared the same problem. Will merge to 'next'. * pw/rebase-i-regression-fix (2017-05-20) 3 commits - rebase -i: add missing newline to end of message - rebase -i: silence stash apply - rebase -i: fix reflog message Regression fix to topic recently merged to 'master'. Will merge to 'next'. * sb/diff-color-move (2017-05-20) 20 commits - diff.c: color moved lines differently - diff: buffer all output if asked to - diff.c: emit_line includes whitespace highlighting - diff.c: convert diff_summary to use emit_line_* - diff.c: convert diff_flush to use emit_line_* - diff.c: convert word diffing to use emit_line_* - diff.c: convert show_stats to use emit_line_* - diff.c: convert emit_binary_diff_body to use emit_line_* - submodule.c: convert show_submodule_summary to use emit_line_fmt - diff.c: convert emit_rewrite_lines to use emit_line_* - diff.c: convert emit_rewrite_diff to use emit_line_* - diff.c: convert builtin_diff to use emit_line_* - diff.c: convert fn_out_consume to use emit_line - diff.c: inline emit_line_0 into emit_line - diff.c: emit_line_0 takes parameter whether to output line prefix - diff.c: emit_line_0 can handle no color setting - diff.c: teach emit_line_0 to accept sign parameter - diff.c: factor out diff_flush_patch_all_file_pairs - diff: move line ending check into emit_hunk_header - diff: readability fix "git diff" has been taught to optionally paint new lines that are the same as deleted lines elsewhere differently from genuinely new lines. * xz/send-email-batch-size (2017-05-22) 2 commits - SQUASH??? - send-email: --batch-size to work around some SMTP server limit "git send-email" learned to overcome some SMTP server limitation that does not allow many pieces of e-mails to be sent over a single session. -------------------------------------------------- [Stalled] * mg/status-in-progress-info (2017-05-10) 2 commits - status --short --inprogress: spell it as --in-progress - status: show in-progress info for short status "git status" learns an option to report various operations (e.g. "merging") that the user is in the middle of. cf. <xmqqmvakcdqw....@gitster.mtv.corp.google.com> * mg/name-rev-debug (2017-03-31) 2 commits - describe: pass --debug down to name-rev - name-rev: provide debug output (this branch uses jc/name-rev-lw-tag.) "git describe --debug --contains" did not add any meaningful information, even though without "--contains" it did. * nd/worktree-move (2017-04-20) 6 commits - worktree remove: new command - worktree move: refuse to move worktrees with submodules - worktree move: accept destination as directory - worktree move: new command - worktree.c: add update_worktree_location() - worktree.c: add validate_worktree() "git worktree" learned move and remove subcommands. Expecting a reroll. cf. <20170420101024.7593-1-pclo...@gmail.com> cf. <20170421145916.mknekgqzhxffu...@sigill.intra.peff.net> cf. <d0e81b1e-5869-299e-f462-4d43dc997...@ramsayjones.plus.com> * df/dir-iter-remove-subtree (2017-04-19) 5 commits - remove_subtree(): reimplement using iterators - dir_iterator: rewrite state machine model - dir_iterator: refactor dir_iterator_advance - remove_subtree(): test removing nested directories - dir_iterator: add tests for dir_iterator API Update the dir-iterator API and use it to reimplement remove_subtree(). A reroll exists that is based on the updated 'master', but I ran out of time trying to get it to work with other topics in flight in 'pu'. GSoC microproject. * ls/filter-process-delayed (2017-03-06) 1 commit - convert: add "status=delayed" to filter process protocol Expecting a reroll. * sk/dash-is-previous (2017-03-01) 5 commits - revert.c: delegate handling of "-" shorthand to setup_revisions - sha1_name.c: teach get_sha1_1 "-" shorthand for "@{-1}" - revision.c: args starting with "-" might be a revision - revision.c: swap if/else blocks - revision.c: do not update argv with unknown option A dash "-" can be written to mean "the branch that was previously checked out" in more places. Needs review. cf. <1488007487-12965-1-git-send-email-kannan.siddhart...@gmail.com> -------------------------------------------------- [Cooking] * ah/log-decorate-default-to-auto (2017-05-15) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2017-05-20 at 209614479c) + builtin/log: honor log.decorate Setting "log.decorate=false" in the configuration file did not take effect in v2.13, which has been corrected. Will merge to 'master'. * jh/memihash-opt (2017-05-16) 5 commits - p0004: don't error out if test repo is too small - p0004: don't abort if multi-threaded is too slow - p0004: use test_perf - p0004: avoid using pipes - p0004: simplify calls of test-lazy-init-name-hash perf-test update. Will merge to 'next'. * jk/bug-to-abort (2017-05-22) 4 commits (merged to 'next' on 2017-05-22 at 20371eebb6) + usage: add NORETURN to BUG() function definitions (merged to 'next' on 2017-05-20 at db65acc882) + config: complain about --local outside of a git repo + setup_git_env: convert die("BUG") to BUG() + usage.c: add BUG() function Introduce the BUG() macro to improve die("BUG: ..."). Will merge to 'master'. * jk/no-looking-at-dotgit-outside-repo (2017-05-15) 1 commit - config: complain about --local outside of a git repo Will discard. Superseded by jk/bug-to-abort. * jk/update-links-in-docs (2017-05-15) 1 commit - doc: use https links to Wikipedia to avoid http redirects A few http:// links that are redirected to https:// in the documentation have been updated to https:// links. Will merge to 'next'. * js/blame-lib (2017-05-15) 22 commits - blame: create entry prepend function in libgit - blame: create scoreboard setup function in libgit - blame: create scoreboard init function in libgit - blame: move scoreboard-related methods to libgit - blame: move fake-commit-related methods to libgit - blame: move origin-related methods to libgit - blame: rework methods that determine 'final' commit - blame: wrap blame_sort and compare_blame_final - blame: move progess updates to a scoreboard callback - blame: make sanity_check use a callback in scoreboard - blame: move no_whole_file_rename flag to scoreboard - blame: move xdl_opts flags to scoreboard - blame: move show_root flag to scoreboard - blame: move reverse flag to scoreboard - blame: move contents_from to scoreboard - blame: move copy/move thresholds to scoreboard - blame: move stat counters to scoreboard - blame: move scoreboard structure to header - blame: move origin and entry structures to header - blame: remove unused parameters - blame: move textconv_object with related functions - blame: remove unneeded dependency on blob.h The internal logic used in "git blame" has been libified to make it easier to use by cgit. * jt/send-email-validate-hook (2017-05-16) 1 commit - send-email: support validate hook "git send-email" learned to run sendemail-validate hook to inspect and reject a message before sending it out. Will merge to 'next'. * bw/pathspec-sans-the-index (2017-05-12) 6 commits - pathspec: convert find_pathspecs_matching_against_index to take an index - pathspec: remove PATHSPEC_STRIP_SUBMODULE_SLASH_CHEAP - ls-files: prevent prune_cache from overeagerly pruning submodules - pathspec: remove PATHSPEC_STRIP_SUBMODULE_SLASH_EXPENSIVE flag - submodule: add die_in_unpopulated_submodule function - pathspec: provide a more descriptive die message Simplify parse_pathspec() codepath and stop it from looking at the default in-core index. Will merge to 'next'. * jt/fetch-allow-tip-sha1-implicitly (2017-05-16) 1 commit - fetch-pack: always allow fetching of literal SHA1s There is no good reason why "git fetch $there $sha1" should fail when the $sha1 names an object at the tip of an advertised ref, even when the other side hasn't enabled allowTipSHA1InWant. Will merge to 'next'. * jc/read-tree-empty-with-m (2017-05-10) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2017-05-20 at 7e86815364) + read-tree: "read-tree -m --empty" does not make sense "git read-tree -m" (no tree-ish) gave a nonsense suggestion "use --empty if you want to clear the index". With "-m", such a request will still fail anyway, as you'd need to name at least one tree-ish to be merged. Will merge to 'master'. * ab/perf-wildmatch (2017-05-12) 2 commits - perf: add test showing exponential growth in path globbing - perf: add function to setup a fresh test repo Add perf-test for wildmatch. Will merge to 'next'. * jk/doc-config-include (2017-05-12) 4 commits - docs/config: consistify include.path examples - docs/config: avoid the term "expand" for includes - docs/config: give a relative includeIf example - docs/config: clarify include/includeIf relationship Clarify documentation for include.path and includeIf.<condition>.path configuration variables. Will merge to 'next'. * js/retire-old-remote-spec (2017-05-12) 11 commits . PREVIEW: remove support for .git/remotes/ and .git/branches/ . PREVIEW: t0060: stop testing support for .git/remotes/ and .git/branches/ . PREVIEW: t5515: remove .git/remotes/ and .git/branches/ tests . PREVIEW: remote: remove support for migrating ancient remotes . PREVIEW: t5516: stop testing .git/branches/ functionality . PREVIEW: t5510: convert .git/remotes/ test to use a regular remote . Revert "Revert "Don't create the $GIT_DIR/branches directory on init"" . remote: warn loud and clear when .git/remotes/ is *still* used . remote: warn loud and clear when .git/branches/ is *still* used . Documentation: really deprecate .git/remotes/ and .git/branches/ . git-parse-remote: fix highly misleading man page Stop reading from .git/remotes/ and .git/branches/, two old ways that we have been supporting to configure short-hands for fetching from remote repositories. Will discard. The procedure of removing an old and unused feature is correctly followed by this series, but it is far from clear that the feature this attempts to remove is unused or useless. * ab/grep-preparatory-cleanup (2017-05-21) 30 commits - grep: assert that threading is enabled when calling grep_{lock,unlock} - grep: given --threads with NO_PTHREADS=YesPlease, warn - pack-objects: fix buggy warning about threads - pack-objects & index-pack: add test for --threads warning - test-lib: add a PTHREADS prerequisite - grep: move is_fixed() earlier to avoid forward declaration - grep: change internal *pcre* variable & function names to be *pcre1* - grep: change the internal PCRE macro names to be PCRE1 - grep: factor test for \0 in grep patterns into a function - grep: remove redundant regflags assignments - grep: catch a missing enum in switch statement - perf: add a comparison test of log --grep regex engines - perf: add a comparison test of grep regex engines with -F - perf: add a comparison test of grep regex engines - perf: emit progress output when unpacking & building - perf: add a GIT_PERF_MAKE_COMMAND for when *_MAKE_OPTS won't do - grep: add tests to fix blind spots with \0 patterns - grep: prepare for testing binary regexes containing rx metacharacters - grep: add a test helper function for less verbose -f \0 tests - grep: add tests for grep pattern types being passed to submodules - grep: amend submodule recursion test for regex engine testing - grep: add tests for --threads=N and grep.threads - grep: change non-ASCII -i test to stop using --debug - grep: add a test for backreferences in PCRE patterns - grep: add a test asserting that --perl-regexp dies when !PCRE - log: make --regexp-ignore-case work with --perl-regexp - log: add exhaustive tests for pattern style options & config - test-lib: rename the LIBPCRE prerequisite to PCRE - grep & rev-list doc: stop promising libpcre for --perl-regexp - Makefile & configure: reword inaccurate comment about PCRE The internal implementation of "git grep" has seen some clean-up. * jt/push-options-doc (2017-05-10) 2 commits (merged to 'next' on 2017-05-20 at ca7f344111) + receive-pack: verify push options in cert + docs: correct receive.advertisePushOptions default The receive-pack program now makes sure that the push certificate records the same set of push options used for pushing. Will merge to 'master'. * dt/unpack-save-untracked-cache-extension (2017-05-20) 1 commit - unpack-trees: preserve index extensions When "git checkout", "git merge", etc. manipulates the in-core index, various pieces of information in the index extensions are discarded from the original state, as it is usually not the case that they are kept up-to-date and in-sync with the operation on the main index. The untracked cache extension is copied across these operations now, which would speed up "git status" (as long as the cache is properly invalidated). Will merge to 'next'. * sg/clone-refspec-from-command-line-config (2017-05-16) 4 commits - clone: use free_refspec() to free refspec list - remote: drop free_refspecs() function - Documentation/clone: document ignored configuration variables - clone: respect additional configured fetch refspecs during initial fetch "git clone -c var=val" is a way to set configuration variables in the resulting repository, but it is more useful to also make these variables take effect while the initial clone is happening, e.g. these configuration variables could be fetch refspecs. * sb/checkout-recurse-submodules (2017-05-04) 3 commits (merged to 'next' on 2017-05-20 at f972b2069f) + submodule: properly recurse for read-tree and checkout + submodule: avoid auto-discovery in new working tree manipulator code + submodule_move_head: reuse child_process structure for futher commands "git checkout --recurse-submodules" did not quite work with a submodule that itself has submodules. Will merge to 'master'. * ja/do-not-ask-needless-questions (2017-05-12) 3 commits - git-filter-branch: be more direct in an error message - read-tree -m: make error message for merging 0 trees less smart aleck - usability: don't ask questions if no reply is required Git sometimes gives an advice in a rhetorical question that does not require an answer, which can confuse new users and non native speakers. Attempt to rephrase them. Will merge to 'next'. * ab/doc-replace-gmane-links (2017-05-09) 2 commits (merged to 'next' on 2017-05-20 at 2c4f96560c) + doc: replace more gmane links + doc: replace a couple of broken gmane links The Web interface to gmane news archive is long gone, even though the articles are still accessible via NTTP. Replace the links with ones to public-inbox.org. Because their message identification is based on the actual message-id, it is likely that it will be easier to migrate away from it if/when necessary. Will merge to 'master'. * ab/fix-poison-tests (2017-05-11) 3 commits (merged to 'next' on 2017-05-20 at 5b13ba86bd) + travis-ci: add job to run tests with GETTEXT_POISON + travis-ci: setup "prove cache" in "script" step + tests: fix tests broken under GETTEXT_POISON=YesPlease Update tests to pass under GETTEXT_POISON (a mechanism to ensure that output strings that should not be translated are not translated by mistake), and tell TravisCI to run them. Will merge to 'master'. * bw/dir-c-stops-relying-on-the-index (2017-05-06) 14 commits (merged to 'next' on 2017-05-20 at 1f1b764ec8) + dir: convert fill_directory to take an index + dir: convert read_directory to take an index + dir: convert read_directory_recursive to take an index + dir: convert open_cached_dir to take an index + dir: convert is_excluded to take an index + dir: convert prep_exclude to take an index + dir: convert add_excludes to take an index + dir: convert is_excluded_from_list to take an index + dir: convert last_exclude_matching_from_list to take an index + dir: convert dir_add* to take an index + dir: convert get_dtype to take index + dir: convert directory_exists_in_index to take index + dir: convert read_skip_worktree_file_from_index to take an index + dir: stop using the index compatibility macros API update. Will merge to 'master'. * jk/diff-submodule-diff-inline (2017-05-08) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2017-05-20 at da7eb2626a) + diff: recurse into nested submodules for inline diff "git diff --submodule=diff" now recurses into nested submodules. Will merge to 'master'. * jk/disable-pack-reuse-when-broken (2017-05-09) 2 commits (merged to 'next' on 2017-05-20 at 684e921273) + t5310: fix "; do" style + pack-objects: disable pack reuse for object-selection options "pack-objects" can stream a slice of an existing packfile out when the pack bitmap can tell that the reachable objects are all needed in the output, without inspecting individual objects. This strategy however would not work well when "--local" and other options are in use, and need to be disabled. Will merge to 'master'. * js/eol-on-ourselves (2017-05-10) 6 commits (merged to 'next' on 2017-05-20 at 8023c277d2) + t4051: mark supporting files as requiring LF-only line endings + Fix the remaining tests that failed with core.autocrlf=true + t3901: move supporting files into t/t3901/ + completion: mark bash script as LF-only + git-new-workdir: mark script as LF-only + Fix build with core.autocrlf=true Make sure our tests would pass when the sources are checked out with "platform native" line ending convention by default on Windows. Some "text" files out tests use and the test scripts themselves that are meant to be run with /bin/sh, ought to be checked out with eol=LF even on Windows. Will merge to 'master'. * nd/split-index-unshare (2017-05-08) 2 commits (merged to 'next' on 2017-05-20 at 9048cdc2ce) + p3400: add perf tests for rebasing many changes + split-index: add and use unshare_split_index() Plug some leaks and updates internal API used to implement the split index feature to make it easier to avoid such a leak in the future.
