17 years agoname-rev: tolerate clock skew in committer dates
Junio C Hamano [Thu, 24 May 2007 19:20:42 +0000 (12:20 -0700)]
name-rev: tolerate clock skew in committer dates

In git.git repository, "git-name-rev v1.3.0~158" cannot name the
rev, while adjacent revs can be named.

This was because it gives up traversal from the tips of existing
refs as soon as it sees a commit that has older commit timestamp
than what is being named.  This is usually a good heuristics,
but v1.3.0~158 has a slightly older commit timestamp than
v1.3.0~157 (i.e. it's child), as these two were made in a
separate repostiory (in fact, in a different continent).

This adds a hardcoded slop value (1 day) to the cut-off
heuristics to work this kind of problem around.  The current
algorithm essentially runs around from the available tips down
to ancient commits and names every single rev available that are
newer than cut-off date, so a single day slop would not add that
much overhead in repositories with long enough history where the
performance of name-rev matters.

I think the algorithm could be made a bit smarter by deepening
the graph on demand as a new commit is asked to be named (this
would require rewriting of name_rev() function not to recurse
itself but use a traversal list like revision.c traverser does),
but that would be a separate issue.

git-svn: don't minimize-url when doing an init that tracks multiple paths

I didn't have a chance to test the off-by-default minimize-url
stuff enough before, but it's quite broken for people passing
the --trunk/-T, --tags/-t, --branches/-b switches to "init" or
"clone" commands.

Additionally, follow-parent functionality seems broken when we're
not connected to the root of the repository.

Default behavior for "traditional" git-svn users who only track
one directory (without needing follow-parent) should be
reasonable, as those users started using things before
minimize-url functionality existed.

Behavior for users more used to the git-svnimport-like command
line will also benefit from a more-flexible command-line than
svnimport given the assumption they're working with
non-restrictive read permissions on the repository.

next week or so, but I would like to get this stopgap measure of

user-manual: reorganize public git repo discussion

Helping a couple people set up public repos recently, I wanted to point
them at this piece of the user manual, but found it wasn't as helpful as
it could be:

- It starts with a big explanation of why you'd want a public
  repository, not necessary in their case since they already knew
  why they wanted that.  So, separate that out.
- It skimps on some of the git-daemon details, and puts the http
  export information first.  Fix that.

Also group all the public repo subsections into a single section, and do
some miscellaneous related editing.

git name-rev writes beyond the end of malloc() with large generations

corruption warning from glibc.

apw@pinky$ git log --pretty=one $N/base.. | git name-rev --stdin
*** glibc detected *** malloc(): memory corruption: 0x0bff8950 ***
Aborted

This comes from name_rev() which is building the name of the revision
in a malloc'd string, which it sprintf's into:

char *new_name = xmalloc(len + 8);
[...]
sprintf(new_name, "%.*s~%d^%d", len, tip_name,
generation, parent_number);

This allocation is only sufficient if the generation number is
less than 5 digits, in my case generation was 13432.  In reality
parent_number can be up to 16 so that also can require two digits,
reducing us to 3 digits before we are at risk of blowing this
allocation.

This patch introduces a decimal_length() which approximates the
number of digits a type may hold, it produces the following:

Type                 Longest Value          Len  Est

git-svn: don't attempt to minimize URLs by default

For tracking branches and tags, git-svn prefers to connect
to the root of the repository or at least the level that
houses branches and tags as well as trunk.  However, users
that are accustomed to tracking a single directory have
no use for this feature.

As pointed out by Junio, users may not have permissions to
connect to connect to a higher-level path in the repository.

While the current minimize_url() function detects lack of
permissions to certain paths _after_ successful logins, it
cannot effectively determine if it is trying to access a
login-only portion of a repo when the user expects to
connect to a part where anonymous access is allowed.

For people used to the git-svnimport switches of
--trunk, --tags, --branches, they'll already pass the
repository root (or root+subdirectory), so minimize URL
isn't of too much use to them, either.

For people *not* used to git-svnimport, git-svn also
supports:

 git svn init --minimize-url \
  --trunk http://repository-root/foo/trunk \
  --branches http://repository-root/foo/branches \
  --tags http://repository-root/foo/tags

And this is where the new --minimize-url command-line switch
comes in to allow for this behavior to continue working.

17 years agoAllow fetching references from any namespace
Alex Riesen [Fri, 11 May 2007 20:35:22 +0000 (22:35 +0200)]
Allow fetching references from any namespace

not only from the three defined: heads, tags and remotes.

Noticed when I tried to fetch the references created by git-p4-import.bat:
they are placed into separate namespace (refs/p4import/, to avoid showing
them in git-branch output). As canon_refs_list_for_fetch always prepended
refs/heads/ it was impossible, and annoying: it worked before. Normally,
the p4import references are useless anywhere but in the directory managed
by perforce, but in this special case the cloned directory was supposed
to be a backup, including the p4import branch: it keeps information about
where the imported perforce state came from.

17 years agogit-clone: don't get fooled by $PWD
Junio C Hamano [Thu, 10 May 2007 00:11:15 +0000 (17:11 -0700)]
git-clone: don't get fooled by $PWD

If you have /home/me/git symlink pointing at /pub/git/mine,
trying to clone from /pub/git/his/ using relative path would not
work as expected:

$ cd /home/me
        $ cd git
        $ ls ../
        his    mine
        $ git clone -l -s -n ../his/stuff.git

This is because "cd ../his/stuff.git" done inside git-clone to
check if the repository is local is confused by $PWD, which is
set to /home/me, and tries to go to /home/his/stuff.git which is
different from /pub/git/his/stuff.git.

We could probably say "set -P" (or "cd -P") instead, if we know
the shell is POSIX, but the way the patch is coded is probably
more portable.

Randal L. Schwartz pointed out multiple times that we should be
testing the length of the name string here, not if it is "true".
The problem is the string '0' is actually false in Perl when we
try to evaluate it in this context, as '0' is 0 numerically and
the number 0 is treated as a false value.  This would cause us
