f91333d git-rebase--interactive.sh: Make 3-way merge strategies work for -p. git-rebase--interactive.sh used to pass all parents of a merge commit to git-merge, which means that we have at least 3 heads to merge: HEAD, first parent and second parent. So 3-way merge strategies like recursive wouldn't work. Fortunately, we have checked out the first parent right before the merge anyway, so that is HEAD. Therefore we can drop simply it from the list of parents, making 3-way strategies work for merge commits with only two parents.

2a9c53e git-rebase--interactive.sh: Don't pass a strategy to git-cherry-pick. git-cherry-pick doesn't support a strategy paramter, so don't pass one. This means that --strategy for interactive rebases is a no-op for anything but merge commits, but that's still better than being broken. A correct fix would probably need to port the --merge behaviour from plain git-rebase.sh, but I have no clue how to integrate that cleanly.

07b45f8 Make merge-recursive honor diff.renamelimit It might be a sign of source code management gone bad, but when two branches has diverged almost beyond recognition and time has come for the branches to merge, the user is going to need all the help his tool can give him. Honoring diff.renamelimit has great potential as a painkiller in such situations. The painkiller effect could have been achieved by e.g. 'merge.renamelimit', but the flexibility gained by a separate option is questionable: our user would probably expect git to detect renames equally good when merging as when diffing (I known I did).

There is no reason to deprecate the historical syntax, as the current code can sanely tell which syntax the caller is using, and existing scripts by people do use the historical syntax.

6dd4b66 Fix diffcore-break total breakage Ok, so on the kernel list, some people noticed that "git log --follow" doesn't work too well with some files in the x86 merge, because a lot of files got renamed in very special ways. In particular, there was a pattern of doing single commits with renames that looked basically like - rename "filename.h" -> "filename_64.h" - create new "filename.c" that includes "filename_32.h" or "filename_64.h" depending on whether we're 32-bit or 64-bit. which was preparatory for smushing the two trees together. Now, there's two issues here: - "filename.c" *remained*. Yes, it was a rename, but there was a new file created with the old name in the same commit. This was important, because we wanted each commit to compile properly, so that it was bisectable, so splitting the rename into one commit and the "create helper file" into another was *not* an option. So we need to break associations where the contents change too much. Fine. We have the -B flag for that. When we break things up, then the rename detection will be able to figure out whether there are better alternatives. - "git log --follow" didn't with with -B. Now, the second case was really simple: we use a different "diffopt" structure for the rename detection than the basic one (which we use for showing the diffs). So that second case is trivially fixed by a trivial one-liner that just copies the break_opt values from the "real" diffopts to the one used for rename following. So now "git log -B --follow" works fine: diff --git a/tree-diff.c b/tree-diff.c index 26bdbdd..7c261fd 100644 --- a/tree-diff.c +++ b/tree-diff.c @@ -319,6 +319,7 @@ static void try_to_follow_renames(struct tree_desc *t1, struct tree_desc *t2, co diff_opts.detect_rename = DIFF_DETECT_RENAME; diff_opts.output_format = DIFF_FORMAT_NO_OUTPUT; diff_opts.single_follow = opt->paths[0]; + diff_opts.break_opt = opt->break_opt; paths[0] = NULL; diff_tree_setup_paths(paths, &diff_opts); if (diff_setup_done(&diff_opts) < 0) however, the end result does *not* work. Because our diffcore-break.c logic is totally bogus! In particular: - it used to do if (base_size < MINIMUM_BREAK_SIZE) return 0; /* we do not break too small filepair */ which basically says "don't bother to break small files". But that "base_size" is the *smaller* of the two sizes, which means that if some large file was rewritten into one that just includes another file, we would look at the (small) result, and decide that it's smaller than the break size, so it cannot be worth it to break it up! Even if the other side was ten times bigger and looked *nothing* like the samell file! That's clearly bogus. I replaced "base_size" with "max_size", so that we compare the *bigger* of the filepair with the break size. - It calculated a "merge_score", which was the score needed to merge it back together if nothing else wanted it. But even if it was *so* different that we would never want to merge it back, we wouldn't consider it a break! That makes no sense. So I added if (*merge_score_p > break_score) return 1; to make it clear that if we wouldn't want to merge it at the end, it was *definitely* a break. - It compared the whole "extent of damage", counting all inserts and deletes, but it based this score on the "base_size", and generated the damage score with delta_size = src_removed + literal_added; damage_score = delta_size * MAX_SCORE / base_size; but that makes no sense either, since quite often, this will result in a number that is *bigger* than MAX_SCORE! Why? Because base_size is (again) the smaller of the two files we compare, and when you start out from a small file and add a lot (or start out from a large file and remove a lot), the base_size is going to be much smaller than the damage! Again, the fix was to replace "base_size" with "max_size", at which point the damage actually becomes a sane percentage of the whole. With these changes in place, not only does "git log -B --follow" work for the case that triggered this in the first place, ie now git log -B --follow arch/x86/kernel/vmlinux_64.lds.S actually gives reasonable results. But I also wanted to verify it in general, by doing a full-history git log --stat -B -C on my kernel tree with the old code and the new code. There's some tweaking to be done, but generally, the new code generates much better results wrt breaking up files (and then finding better rename candidates). Here's a few examples of the "--stat" output: - This: include/asm-x86/Kbuild | 2 - include/asm-x86/debugreg.h | 79 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------ include/asm-x86/debugreg_32.h | 64 --------------------------------- include/asm-x86/debugreg_64.h | 65 --------------------------------- 4 files changed, 68 insertions(+), 142 deletions(-) Becomes: include/asm-x86/Kbuild | 2 - include/asm-x86/{debugreg_64.h => debugreg.h} | 9 +++- include/asm-x86/debugreg_32.h | 64 ------------------------- 3 files changed, 7 insertions(+), 68 deletions(-) - This: include/asm-x86/bug.h | 41 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-- include/asm-x86/bug_32.h | 37 ------------------------------------- include/asm-x86/bug_64.h | 34 ---------------------------------- 3 files changed, 39 insertions(+), 73 deletions(-) Becomes include/asm-x86/{bug_64.h => bug.h} | 20 +++++++++++++----- include/asm-x86/bug_32.h | 37 ----------------------------------- 2 files changed, 14 insertions(+), 43 deletions(-) Now, in some other cases, it does actually turn a rename into a real "delete+create" pair, and then the diff is usually bigger, so truth in advertizing: it doesn't always generate a nicer diff. But for what -B was meant for, I think this is a big improvement, and I suspect those cases where it generates a bigger diff are tweakable. So I think this diff fixes a real bug, but we might still want to tweak the default values and perhaps the exact rules for when a break happens.

0713442 Fix directory scanner to correctly ignore files without d_type On Fri, 19 Oct 2007, Todd T. Fries wrote: > If DT_UNKNOWN exists, then we have to do a stat() of some form to > find out the right type. That happened in the case of a pathname that was ignored, and we did not ask for "dir->show_ignored". That test used to be *together* with the "DTYPE(de) != DT_DIR", but splitting the two tests up means that we can do that (common) test before we even bother to calculate the real dtype. Of course, that optimization only matters for systems that don't have, or don't fill in DTYPE properly. I also clarified the real relationship between "exclude" and "dir->show_ignored". It used to do if (exclude != dir->show_ignored) { .. which wasn't exactly obvious, because it triggers for two different cases: - the path is marked excluded, but we are not interested in ignored files: ignore it - the path is *not* excluded, but we *are* interested in ignored files: ignore it unless it's a directory, in which case we might have ignored files inside the directory and need to recurse into it). so this splits them into those two cases, since the first case doesn't even care about the type. I also made a the DT_UNKNOWN case a separate helper function, and added some commentary to the cases. Linus Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org> 21 October 2007, 05:44:40 UTC

42a3217 Avoid scary errors about tagged trees/blobs during git-fetch Ok, what is going on is: - append_fetch_head() looks up the SHA1 for all heads (including tags): if (get_sha1(head, sha1)) return error("Not a valid object name: %s", head); - it then wants to check if it's a candidate for merging (because fetching also does the whole "list which heads to merge" in case it is going to be part of a "pull"): commit = lookup_commit_reference(sha1); if (!commit) not_for_merge = 1; - and that "lookup_commit_reference()" is just very vocal about the case where it fails. It really shouldn't be, and it shouldn't affect the actual end result, but that basically explains why you get that scary warning.

cd8ae20 git-blame shouldn't crash if run in an unmerged tree If we are in the middle of resolving a merge conflict there may be one or more files whose entries in the index represent an unmerged state (index entries in the higher-order stages). Attempting to run git-blame on any file in such a working directory resulted in "fatal: internal error: ce_mode is 0" as we use the magic marker for an unmerged entry is 0 (set up by things like diff-lib.c's do_diff_cache() and builtin-read-tree.c's read_tree_unmerged()) and the ce_match_stat_basic() function gets upset about this. I'm not entirely sure that the whole "ce_mode = 0" case is a good idea to begin with, and maybe the right thing to do is to remove that horrid freakish special case, but removing the internal error seems to be the simplest fix for now.

60fcc2e clear_commit_marks(): avoid deep recursion Before this patch, clear_commit_marks() recursed for each parent. This could be potentially very expensive in terms of stack space. Probably the only reason that this did not lead to problems is the fact that we typically call clear_commit_marks() after marking a relatively small set of commits. Use (sort of) a tail recursion instead: first recurse on the parents other than the first one, and then continue the loop with the first parent. Noticed by Shawn Pearce.

7288ed8 git add -i: Fix parsing of abbreviated hunk headers The unified diff format allows one-line ranges to be abbreviated by omiting the size. The hunk header "@@ -10,1 +10,1 @@" can be expressed as "@@ -10 +10 @@", but this wasn't properly parsed in all cases. Such abbreviated hunk headers are generated when a one-line change (add, remove or modify) appears without context; for example because the file is a one-liner itself or because GIT_DIFF_OPTS was set to '-u0'. If the user then runs 'git add -i' and enters the 'patch' command for that file, perl complains about undefined variables.

304b5af Clean up "git log" format with DIFF_FORMAT_NO_OUTPUT This fixes an unnecessary empty line that we add to the log message when we generate diffs, but don't actually end up printing any due to having DIFF_FORMAT_NO_OUTPUT set. This can happen with pickaxe or with rename following. The reason is that we normally add an empty line between the commit and the diff, but we do that even for the case where we've then suppressed the actual printing of the diff. This also updates a couple of tests that assumed the extraneous empty line would exist at the end of output.

99516e3 Fix embarrassing "git log --follow" bug It turns out that I completely broke "git log --follow" with my recent patch to revision.c ("Fix revision log diff setup, avoid unnecessary diff generation", commit b7bb760d5ed4881422673d32f869d140221d3564). Why? Because --follow obviously requires the diff machinery to function, exactly the same way pickaxe does. So everybody is away right now, but considering that nobody even noticed this bug, I don't think it matters. But for the record, here's the trivial one-liner fix (well, two, since I also fixed the comment). Because of the nature of the bug, if you ask for patches when following (which is one of the things I normally do), the bug is hidden, because then the request for diff output will automatically also enable the diffs themselves. So while "git log --follow <filename>" didn't work, adding a "-p" magically made it work again even without this fix.

95af39f Must not modify the_index.cache as it may be passed to realloc at some point. The index cache is not static, growing as new entries are added. If entries are added after prune_cache is called, cache will no longer point at the base of the allocation, and realloc will not be happy. I verified that this was the only place in the current source which modified any index_state.cache elements aside from the alloc/realloc calls in read-cache by changing the type of the element to 'struct cache_entry ** const cache' and recompiling. A more efficient patch would create a separate 'cache_base' value to track the allocation and then fix things up when reallocation was necessary, instead of the brute-force memmove used here.

eede7b7 diffcore-rename: cache file deltas We find rename candidates by computing a fingerprint hash of each file, and then comparing those fingerprints. There are inherently O(n^2) comparisons, so it pays in CPU time to hoist the (rather expensive) computation of the fingerprint out of that loop (or to cache it once we have computed it once). Previously, we didn't keep the filespec information around because then we had the potential to consume a great deal of memory. However, instead of keeping all of the filespec data, we can instead just keep the fingerprint. This patch implements and uses diff_free_filespec_data_large to accomplish that goal. We also have to change estimate_similarity not to needlessly repopulate the filespec data when we already have the hash. Practical tests showed 4.5x speedup for a 10% memory usage increase.

b7bb760 Fix revision log diff setup, avoid unnecessary diff generation We used to incorrectly start calculating diffs whenever any argument but '-z' was recognized by the diff options parsing. That was bogus, since not all arguments result in diffs being needed, so we just waste a lot of time and effort on calculating diffs that don't matter. This actually also fixes another bug in "git log". Try this: git log -C and notice how it prints an extra empty line in between log entries, even though it never prints the actual diff (because we didn't ask for any diff format, so the diff machinery never prints anything). With this patch, that bogus empty line is gone, because "revs->diff" is never set. So this isn't just a "wasted time and effort" issue, it's also a slight semantic fix.
