$GIT_EDITOR (or friends) contains shell metacharacters to match
launch_editor() in builtin-tag.c. If we use the current approach

pack-objects: allow for early delta deflating

When the delta data is cached in memory until it is written to a pack
file on disk, it is best to compress it right away in find_deltas() for
the following reasons:

  - we have to compress that data anyway;

  - this allows for caching more deltas with the same cache size limit;

  - compression is potentially threaded.

This last point is especially relevant for SMP run time.  For example,
repacking the Linux repo on a quad core processor using 4 threads with
all default settings produce the following results before this change:

real    2m27.929s
user    4m36.492s
sys     0m3.091s

And with this change applied:

real    2m13.787s
user    4m37.486s
sys     0m3.159s

So the actual execution time stayed more or less the same but the
wall clock time is shorter.

This is however not a good thing to do when generating a pack for
network transmission.  In that case, the network is most likely to
throttle the data throughput, so it is best to make find_deltas()
faster in order to start writing data ASAP since we can afford
spending more time between writes to compress the data
at that point.

git-svn: Same default as cvsimport when using --use-log-author

When using git-cvsimport, the author is inferred from the cvs commit,
e.g. cvs commit logname is foobaruser, then the author field in git
results in:

Author: foobaruser <foobaruser>

Which is not perfect, but perfectly acceptable given the circumstances.

The default git-svn import however, results in:

Author: foobaruser <foobaruser@acf43c95-373e-0410-b603-e72c3f656dc1>

When using mixes of imports, from CVS and SVN into the same git
repository, you'd like to harmonise the imports to the format cvsimport
uses.
git-svn supports an experimental option --use-log-author which currently
results in the same logentry as without that option when no From: or
Signed-off-by: is found in the logentry ($email currently ends up empty,
and hence is generated again).

When we call approxidate on the contents inside braces,

16 years agogitweb: Use feed link according to current view
Jakub Narebski [Sun, 20 Apr 2008 20:09:48 +0000 (22:09 +0200)]
gitweb: Use feed link according to current view

Michael G. Noll said in comments to the "Switching my code repository from
Subversion (SVN) to git" article (http://tinyurl.com/37v67l) in his "My
digital moleskine" blog, that one of the things he is missing in gitweb
from SVN::Web is an RSS feed with news/information of the current view
(including RSS feed for single file or directory).

This is not exactly true, as since refactoring feed generation in af6feeb
(gitweb: Refactor feed generation, make output prettier, add Atom feed,
2006-11-19), gitweb can generate feeds (RSS or Atom) for history of a
given branch, history limited to a given directory, or history of a given
file.  Nevertheless this required handcrafting the URL to get wanted RSS
feed.

This commit makes gitweb select feed links in the HTML header and in
page footer depending on current view (action).  It is more elaborate,
and I guess more correct, than simple patch adding $hash ('h')
parameter to *all* URLs, including feed links, by Jean-Baptiste Quenot

  Subject: [PATCH] gitweb: Add hash parameter in feed URL when a hash
           is specified in the current request
  Message-ID: <ae63f8b50803211138y6355fd11pa64cda50a1f53011@mail.gmail.com>

If $hash ('h') or $hash_base ('hb') parameter is a branch name
(i.e. it starts with 'refs/heads/'; all generated URLs use this form
to discriminate between tags and heads), it is used in feed URLs; if
$file_name ('f') is defined, it is used in feed URLs.  Feed title is
set according to the kind of web feed: it is either 'log' for generic
feed, 'log of <branch>', 'history of <filename>' for generic history
(using implicit or explicit HEAD, i.e. current branch) or 'history of
<filename> on <branch>'.

There are special cases: 'heads' and 'forks' views should use OPML
providing list of available feeds; 'tags' probably also should use
OPML; there is no web feed equivalent to 'search' view.  Currently all
those cases fallback to (show) default feed.  Such feed link uses
"generic" class, and is shown in slightly lighter color for
distinction.

Currently feed can have but one starting point, and does not support
negative (exclude) commit arguments.  Therefore for now for *diff
views it is chosen that feed follow the "to" part: to-name, to-commit
for 'blobdiff', 'treediff' and 'commitdiff' views.

Generating parameters for href() for feed link was separated
(refactored) into get_feed_info() subroutine.

16 years agoOptimize match_pathspec() to avoid fnmatch()
Linus Torvalds [Sat, 19 Apr 2008 21:22:38 +0000 (14:22 -0700)]
Optimize match_pathspec() to avoid fnmatch()

"git add *" is actually fundamentally different from "git add .", and
yeah, you should generally use the latter.

The reason? The argument list is actually something different from what
you think it is. For git, it's a "pathspec", so what actualy happens is
that in *both* cases, it will really traverse the whole tree, and then
match every file it finds against the pathspec.

So think of the arguments not as a file list, but as a random bunch of
patterns to match against the files you have!

Which is why the cost is actually approximately O(n*m), where "n" is the
size of the working tree, and "m" is the number of pathspecs.

So the reason "git add ." is fast is actually that "m" in that case is
just 1 (just one trivial pattern), and then "git add *" is slow because
"m" is large (lots of complicated patterns). In both cases, 'n' is the
same (== the whole set of files in your working tree).

Anyway, here's a trivial patch that doesn't change this fundamental fact,
but that avoids doing anything *expensive* until we've done some cheap
initial tests. It may or may not help your test-case, but it's pretty
simple and it matches the other git optimizations in this area (ie
"conceptually handle the general case, but optimize the simple cases where
we can exit early")

Notice how this patch doesn' actually change the fundamental O(n^2)
behaviour, but it makes it much cheaper by generally avoiding the
expensive 'fnmatch' and 'strlen/strncmp' when they are obviously not
needed.

push: allow unqualified dest refspecs to DWIM

Previously, a push like:

  git push remote src:dst

would go through the following steps:

  1. check for an unambiguous 'dst' on the remote; if it
     exists, then push to that ref
  2. otherwise, check if 'dst' begins with 'refs/'; if it
     does, create a new ref
  3. otherwise, complain because we don't know where in the
     refs hierarchy to put 'dst'

However, in some cases, we can guess about the ref type of
'dst' based on the ref type of 'src'. Specifically, before
complaining we now check:

  2.5. if 'src' resolves to a ref starting with refs/heads
       or refs/tags, then prepend that to 'dst'

So now this creates a new branch on the remote, whereas it
previously failed with an error message:

  git push master:newbranch

Note that, by design, we limit this DWIM behavior only to
source refs which resolve exactly (including symrefs which
resolve to existing refs). We still complain on a partial
destination refspec if the source is a raw sha1, or a ref
expression such as 'master~10'.
