16 years agobisect: use a detached HEAD to bisect
Christian Couder [Thu, 22 May 2008 23:28:57 +0000 (01:28 +0200)]
bisect: use a detached HEAD to bisect

When "git bisect" was first written, it was not possible to
checkout a detached HEAD. The detached feature appeared latter.

That's why before this patch the "git bisect" process used a
"bisect" branch to checkout new revisions to be tested (and also
a "new-bisect" one to check if the checkouts could work).

This patch makes "git bisect" checkout revisions to be tested on
a detached HEAD. This simplifies the code a bit.

The tests to check that "git bisect" does not start if a
"bisect" or a "new-bisect" branch exists are removed as they
are not relevant any more.

16 years agobisect: trap critical errors in "bisect_start"

bisect: trap critical errors in "bisect_start"

Before this patch, when using "git bisect start" with mistaken revs
or when the checkout of the branch we want to test failed, we exited
after having written files like ".git/BISECT_START",
".git/BISECT_NAMES" and after having written "refs/bisect/bad" and
"refs/bisect/good-*" refs.

With this patch we trap all errors that can happen when writing the
new state and when we are in "bisect_next". So that we can try to
clean up everything in case of problems, using "bisect_clean_state".

This patch also contains a "bisect_write" cleanup to make it exit
on error and return 0 otherwise.

could leave a ".git/BISECT_START" file, from a previous

Jeff King [Tue, 13 May 2008 08:46:38 +0000 (04:46 -0400)]
filter-branch: fix variable export logic

filter-branch tries to restore "old" copies of some
environment variables by using the construct:

  unset var
  test -z "$old_var" || var="$old_var" && export var

This is just wrong.  AND-list and OR-list operators && and || have equal
precedence and they bind left to right.  The second term, var="$old"
assignment always succeeds, so we always end up exporting var.

On bash and dash, exporting an unset variable has no effect. However, on
some shells (such as FreeBSD's /bin/sh), the shell exports the empty
value.

This manifested itself in this case as git-filter-branch setting
GIT_INDEX_FILE to the empty string, which in turn caused its call to
git-read-tree to fail, leaving the working tree pointing at the original
HEAD instead of the rewritten one.

To fix this, we change the short-circuit logic to better match the intent:

  test -z "$old_var" || {
    var="$old_var" && export var
  }

Linus Torvalds [Fri, 9 May 2008 16:21:07 +0000 (09:21 -0700)]
Optimize symlink/directory detection

This is the base for making symlink detection in the middle fo a pathname
saner and (much) more efficient.

Under various loads, we want to verify that the full path leading up to a
filename is a real directory tree, and that when we successfully do an
'lstat()' on a filename, we don't get a false positive due to a symlink in
the middle of the path that git should have seen as a symlink, not as a
normal path component.

The 'has_symlink_leading_path()' function already did this, and cached
a single level of symlink information, but didn't cache the _lack_ of a
symlink, so the normal behaviour was actually the wrong way around, and we
ended up doing an 'lstat()' on each path component to check that it was a
real directory.

This caches the last detected full directory and symlink entries, and
speeds up especially deep directory structures a lot by avoiding to
lstat() all the directories leading up to each entry in the index.

[ This can - and should - probably be extended upon so that we eventually
  never do a bare 'lstat()' on any path entries at *all* when checking the
  index, but always check the full path carefully. Right now we do not
  generally check the whole path for all our normal quick index
  revalidation.

  We should also make sure that we're careful about all the invalidation,
  ie when we remove a link and replace it by a directory we should
  invalidate the symlink cache if it matches (and vice versa for the
  directory cache).

  But regardless, the basic function needs to be sane to do that. The old
  'has_symlink_leading_path()' was not capable enough - or indeed the code
  readable enough - to really do that sanely. So I'm pushing this as not
  just an optimization, but as a base for further work. ]

Linus Torvalds [Fri, 9 May 2008 16:11:43 +0000 (09:11 -0700)]
Avoid some unnecessary lstat() calls

The commit sequence used to do

if (file_exists(p->path))
add_file_to_cache(p->path, 0);

where both "file_exists()" and "add_file_to_cache()" needed to do a
lstat() on the path to do their work.

This cuts down 'lstat()' calls for the partial commit case by two
for each path we know about (because we do this twice per path).

Just move the lstat() to the caller instead (that's all that
"file_exists()" really does), and pass the stat information down to the
add_to_cache() function.

This essentially makes 'add_to_index()' the core function that adds a path
to the index, getting the index pointer, the pathname and the stat
information as arguments. There are then shorthand helper functions that
use this core function:

 - 'add_to_cache()' is just 'add_to_index()' with the default index

 - 'add_file_to_cache/index()' is the same, but does the lstat() call
   itself, so you can pass just the pathname if you don't already have the
   stat information available.

So old users of the 'add_file_to_xyzzy()' are essentially left unchanged,
and this just exposes the more generic helper function that can take
existing stat information into account.

it's finished.

Paul Mackerras [Fri, 9 May 2008 00:14:07 +0000 (10:14 +1000)]
gitk: Make updates go faster

This goes back to the method of doing updates where we translate the
revisions we're given to SHA1 ids and then remove the ones we've asked
for before or that we've already come across.  This speeds up updates
enormously in most cases since it means git log doesn't have to traverse
large parts of the tree.  We used to do this, but it had bugs, and commit
468bcaedbb1589f16955e63b6bfba01c2f53e433 (gitk: Don't filter view
arguments through git rev-parse) went to the slower method to avoid the
bugs.

In order to do this properly, we have to parse the command line and
understand all the flag arguments.  So this adds a parser that checks
all the flag arguments.  If there are any we don't know about, we
disable the optimization and just pass the whole lot to git log
(except for -d/--date-order, which we remove from the list).

With this we can then use git rev-parse on the non-flag arguments to
work out exactly what SHA1 ids are included and excluded in the list,
which then enables us to ask for just the new ones when updating.
One wrinkle is that we have to turn symmetric diff arguments (of the
form a...b) back into symmetric diff form so that --left-right still
works, as git rev parse turns a...b into a b ^merge_base(a,b).

This also updates a couple of copyright notices.
