16 years agohash: fix lookup_hash semantics

hash: fix lookup_hash semantics

We were returning the _address of_ the stored item (or NULL)
instead of the item itself. While this sort of indirection
is useful for insertion (since you can lookup and then
modify), it is unnecessary for read-only lookup. Since the
hash code splits these functions between the internal
lookup_hash_entry function and the public lookup_hash
function, it makes sense for the latter to provide what
users of the library expect.

The result of this was that the index caching returned bogus
results on lookup. We unfortunately didn't catch this
because we were returning a "struct cache_entry **" as a
"void *", and accidentally assigning it to a "struct
cache_entry *".

As it happens, this actually _worked_ most of the time,
because the entries were defined as:

  struct cache_entry {
  struct cache_entry *next;
  ...
  };

meaning that interpreting a "struct cache_entry **" as a
"struct cache_entry *" would yield an entry where all fields
were totally bogus _except_ for the next pointer, which
pointed to the actual cache entry. When walking the list, we
would look at the bogus "name" field, which was unlikely to
match our lookup, and then proceed to the "real" entry.

The reading of bogus data was silently ignored most of the
time, but could cause a segfault for some data (which seems
to be more common on OS X).

git-gui: Avoid hardcoded Windows paths in Cygwin package files

When we are being built by the Cygwin package maintainers we need to
embed the POSIX path to our library files and not the Windows path.
Embedding the Windows path means all end-users who install our Cygwin
package would be required to install Cygwin at the same Windows path
as the package maintainer had Cygwin installed to.  This requirement
is simply not user-friendly and may be infeasible for a large number
of our users.

We now try to auto-detect if the Tcl/Tk binary we will use at runtime
is capable of translating POSIX paths into Windows paths the same way
that cygpath does the translations.  If the Tcl/Tk binary gives us the
same results then it understands the Cygwin path translation process
and should be able to read our library files from a POSIX path name.

If it does not give us the same answer as cygpath then the Tcl/Tk
binary might actually be a native Win32 build (one that is not
linked against Cygwin) and thus requires the native Windows path
to our library files.  We can assume this is not a Cygwin package
as the Cygwin maintainers do not currently ship a pure Win32 build
of Tcl/Tk.

Most users set TCLTK_PATH to tell git-gui where to find wish, but they

tclsh during builds so headless systems are still able to create an
index file and create message files without GNU msgfmt.  So it matters
to us that we find a working TCL_PATH at build time.

If TCL_PATH hasn't been set yet we can take a better guess about what
tclsh executable to use by replacing 'wish' in the executable path with
'tclsh'.  We only do this replacement on the filename part of the path,

things do break though: 'yum update git-core', because yum behaves
differently when given a specific package name - it doesn't follow obsoletes.

Instead, 'yum install git' will pull in the new git rpm, which will then
push out the old 'git-core'.  Similarly, to get the newest version of
the meta package, 'yum install git-all' will install git-all, which then

In many places we just check if a value from the config file is not
NULL, then we duplicate it and return 0. This patch introduces the new
'git_config_string' function to do that.

This function is also used to refactor some code in 'config.c'.
Refactoring other files is left for other patches.

Also not all the code in "config.c" is refactored, because the function
takes a "const char **" as its first parameter, but in many places a
"char *" is used instead of a "const char *". (And C does not allow
using a "char **" instead of a "const char **" without a warning.)

builtin-commit: remove .git/SQUASH_MSG upon successful commit

After doing a merge --squash, and commit afterwards, the commit message
template SQUASH_MSG in the git directory is not removed, which means that
the content of SQUASH_MSG is used as default commit message for all
subsequent commits.  So have git commit remove the file SQUASH_MSG from
the git directory upon a successful commit.

The problem was discovered by Frédéric Brière, reported through

David Steven Tweed [Thu, 7 Feb 2008 02:55:14 +0000 (02:55 +0000)]
Make git prune remove temporary packs that look like write failures

Write errors when repacking (eg, due to out-of-space conditions)
can leave temporary packs (and possibly other files beginning
with "tmp_") lying around which no existing
codepath removes and which aren't obvious to the casual user.
These can also be multi-megabyte files wasting noticeable space.
Unfortunately there's no way to definitely tell in builtin-prune
that a tmp_ file is not being used by a concurrent process,
such as a fetch. However, it is documented that pruning should
only be done on a quiet repository and --expire is honoured
(using code from Johannes Schindelin, along with a test case
he wrote) so that its safety is the same as that of loose
object pruning.

Since they might be signs of a problem (unlike orphaned loose
objects) the names of any removed files are printed.

We only care about getting what should be an empty string and
sending it to a file, without a trailing LF, so the empty string
translates into a 0 byte file.  Earlier when I originally wrote
these lines Mac OS X allowed the format string of printf to be
the empty string, but more recent versions appear to have been

This may cause problems if we ever wind up with changes to the hook
