[fossil-users] README Maturity Model & CI/automated testing

2017-10-27 Thread Warren Young
Someone wrote up a document laying out opinions about how “mature” a given 
software project’s top-level README file is:


https://github.com/LappleApple/feedmereadmes/blob/master/README-maturity-model.md

It’s good food for thought, except insofar as it confuses “GitHub” with “the 
way software development is done in 2017.”  Badges?  We don’t need no steenkin’ 
badges!

Not in Fossil’s Markdown processor, at any rate.

That got me to thinking about how I would integrate a CI/automated testing 
system into Fossil.  I’m leaning toward “fossil wiki export $ci_page | sed -e 
's/noise/morenoise/' | fossil commit $ci_page”.

Any more ideas?

[fossil-users] Possible Markdown memleak

2017-10-27 Thread Johan Kuuse
Hi,

I think the two blobs used for markdown input and output (rendered
HTML) aren't free()'d properly.
This patch only applies to test_markdown_render(), but the same
behaviour may occur at other places where markdown_to_html() is
called.

BR,
Johan

I'm sure your are correct about the leaks, though two points:

(1) The proper way to fix them is to call blob_reset() on the Blob
object, not by trying to mess with the internal implementation details
of the Blob object.

(2) Memory leaks do not usually matter in Fossil, since each command
runs to completion and the process dies, leaving the OS to clean up
any memory.  Only memory leaks inside of a loop make a difference.

Another way to think of this:  The memory will be garbage collected by
the exit() function.  :-)

Thanks for the clarification.

I guess the memleak could be an issue when serving Markdown documents
repeatedly, as from within the "ui" or "server" web server loop, as in
doc_page():

Blob tail = BLOB_INITIALIZER;
markdown_to_html(&filebody, &title, &tail);

I cannot find any call to blob_reset() for neither filebody nor tail.

Obviously, this is not a big issue unless the Fossil web server
handles heavy traffic of big Markdown documents - which isn't its main
purpose anyway. :-)

Best Regards,
Johan

Even then, it isn't an issue, because the Fossil web server creates a
new process to handle each request, and so the exit() function still
operates as a (very fast and efficient) garbage collector following
each request.
