2022-07-23ls-files: introduce "--format" optionZheNing Hu3-1/+228
Add a new option "--format" that outputs index entries informations in a custom format, taking inspiration from the option with the same name in the `git ls-tree` command. "--format" cannot used with "-s", "-o", "-k", "-t", " --resolve-undo","--deduplicate" and "--eol". Signed-off-by: ZheNing Hu <adlternative@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2022-07-22merge: do not exit restore_state() prematurelyElijah Newren2-4/+38
Previously, if the user: * Had no local changes before starting the merge * A merge strategy makes changes to the working tree/index but returns with exit status 2 Then we'd call restore_state() to clean up the changes and either let the next merge strategy run (if there is one), or exit telling the user that no merge strategy could handle the merge. Unfortunately, restore_state() did not clean up the changes as expected; that function was a no-op if the stash was a null, and the stash would be null if there were no local changes before starting the merge. So, instead of "Rewinding the tree to pristine..." as the code claimed, restore_state() would leave garbage around in the index and working tree (possibly including conflicts) for either the next merge strategy or for the user after aborting the merge. And in the case of aborting the merge, the user would be unable to run "git merge --abort" to get rid of the unintended leftover conflicts, because the merge control files were not written as it was presumed that we had restored to a clean state already. Fix the main problem by making sure that restore_state() only skips the stash application if the stash is null rather than skipping the whole function. However, there is a secondary problem -- since merge.c forks subprocesses to do the cleanup, the in-memory index is left out-of-sync. While there was a refresh_cache(REFRESH_QUIET) call that attempted to correct that, that function would not handle cases where the previous merge strategy added conflicted entries. We need to drop the index and re-read it to handle such cases. (Alternatively, we could stop forking subprocesses and instead call some appropriate function to do the work which would update the in-memory index automatically. For now, just do the simple fix.) Also, add a testcase checking this, one for which the octopus strategy fails on the first commit it attempts to merge, and thus which it cannot handle at all and must completely bail on (as per the "exit 2" code path of commit 98efc8f3d8 ("octopus: allow manual resolve on the last round.", 2006-01-13)).

2022-07-22merge: ensure we can actually restore pre-merge stateElijah Newren1-5/+5
Merge strategies can: * succeed with a clean merge * succeed with a conflicted merge * fail to handle the given type of merge If one is thinking in terms of automatic mergeability, they would use the word "fail" instead of "succeed" for the second bullet, but I am focusing here on ability of the merge strategy to handle the given inputs, not on whether the given inputs are mergeable. The third category is about the merge strategy failing to know how to handle the given data; examples include: * Passing more than 2 branches to 'recursive' or 'ort' * Passing 2 or fewer branches to 'octopus' * Trying to do more complicated merges with 'resolve' (I believe directory/file conflicts will cause it to bail.) * Octopus running into a merge conflict for any branch OTHER than the final one (see the "exit 2" codepath of commit 98efc8f3d8 ("octopus: allow manual resolve on the last round.", 2006-01-13)) That final one is particularly interesting, because it shows that the merge strategy can muck with the index and working tree, and THEN bail and say "sorry, this strategy cannot handle this type of merge; use something else". Further, we do not currently expect the individual strategies to clean up after themselves, but instead expect builtin/merge.c to do so. For it to be able to, it needs to save the state before trying the merge strategy so it can have something to restore to. Therefore, remove the shortcut bypassing the save_state() call. There is another bug on the restore_state() side of things, so no testcase will be added until the next commit when we have addressed that issue as well.

2022-07-22merge: make restore_state() restore staged state tooElijah Newren2-4/+11
There are multiple issues at play here: 1) If `git merge` is invoked with staged changes, it should abort without doing any merging, and the user's working tree and index should be the same as before merge was invoked. 2) Merge strategies are responsible for enforcing the index == HEAD requirement. (See 9822175d2b ("Ensure index matches head before invoking merge machinery, round N", 2019-08-17) for some history around this.) 3) Merge strategies can bail saying they are not an appropriate handler for the merge in question (possibly allowing other strategies to be used instead). 4) Merge strategies can make changes to the index and working tree, and have no expectation to clean up after themselves, *even* if they bail out and say they are not an appropriate handler for the merge in question. (The `octopus` merge strategy does this, for example.) 5) Because of (3) and (4), builtin/merge.c stashes state before trying merge strategies and restores it afterward. Unfortunately, if users had staged changes before calling `git merge`, builtin/merge.c could do the following: * stash the changes, in order to clean up after the strategies * try all the merge strategies in turn, each of which report they cannot function due to the index not matching HEAD * restore the changes via "git stash apply" But that last step would have the net effect of unstaging the user's changes. Fix this by adding the "--index" option to "git stash apply". While at it, also squelch the stash apply output; we already report "Rewinding the tree to pristine..." and don't need a detailed `git status` report afterwards. Also while at it, switch to using strvec so folks don't have to count the arguments to ensure we avoided an off-by-one error, and so it's easier to add additional arguments to the command.

2022-07-22merge: do not abort early if one strategy fails to handle the mergeElijah Newren4-3/+22
builtin/merge is setup to allow multiple strategies to be specified, and it will find the "best" result and use it. This is defeated if some of the merge strategies abort early when they cannot handle the merge. Fix the logic that calls recursive and ort to not do such an early abort, but instead return "2" or "unhandled" so that the next strategy can try to handle the merge. Coming up with a testcase for this is somewhat difficult, since recursive and ort both handle nearly any two-headed merge (there is a separate code path that checks for non-two-headed merges and already returns "2" for them). So use a somewhat synthetic testcase of having the index not match HEAD before the merge starts, since all merge strategies will abort for that.

2022-07-22merge: abort if index does not match HEAD for trivial mergesElijah Newren2-1/+36
As noted in the last commit and the links therein (especially commit 9822175d2b ("Ensure index matches head before invoking merge machinery, round N", 2019-08-17), we have had a very long history of problems with failing to enforce the requirement that index matches HEAD when starting a merge. The "trivial merge" logic in builtin/merge.c is yet another such case we previously missed. Add a check for it to ensure it aborts if the index does not match HEAD, and add a testcase where this fix is needed. Note that the fix here would also incidentally be an alternative fix for the testcase added in the last patch, but the fix in the last patch is still needed when multiple merge strategies are in use, so tweak the testcase from the previous commit so that it continues to exercise the codepath added in the last commit.

2022-07-22merge-resolve: abort if index does not match HEADElijah Newren2-0/+23
As noted in commit 9822175d2b ("Ensure index matches head before invoking merge machinery, round N", 2019-08-17), we have had a very long history of problems with failing to enforce the requirement that index matches HEAD when starting a merge. One of the commits referenced in the long tale of issues arising from lax enforcement of this requirement was commit 55f39cf755 ("merge: fix misleading pre-merge check documentation", 2018-06-30), which tried to document the requirement and noted there were some exceptions. As mentioned in that commit message, the `resolve` strategy was the one strategy that did not have an explicit index matching HEAD check, and the reason it didn't was that I wasn't able to discover any cases where the implementation would fail to catch the problem and abort, and didn't want to introduce unnecessary performance overhead of adding another check. Well, today I discovered a testcase where the implementation does not catch the problem and so an explicit check is needed. Add a testcase that previously would have failed, and update git-merge-resolve.sh to have an explicit check. Note that the code is copied from 3ec62ad9ff ("merge-octopus: abort if index does not match HEAD", 2016-04-09), so that we reuse the same message and avoid making translators need to translate some new message.

The merge-ort-wrappers had code to implement this and meant to copy the error message from merge-recursive but deviated in two ways, both due to the message in merge-recursive being processed by another function that made additional changes: * It added an implicit "error: " prefix * It added an implicit trailing newline We can get these things by making use of the error() function.

2022-07-22builtin/cat-file.c: support NUL-delimited input with `-z`Taylor Blau3-5/+72
When callers are using `cat-file` via one of the stdin-driven `--batch` modes, all input is newline-delimited. This presents a problem when callers wish to ask about, e.g. tree-entries that have a newline character present in their filename. To support this niche scenario, introduce a new `-z` mode to the `--batch`, `--batch-check`, and `--batch-command` suite of options that instructs `cat-file` to treat its input as NUL-delimited, allowing the individual commands themselves to have newlines present. The refactoring here is slightly unfortunate, since we turn loops like: while (strbuf_getline(&buf, stdin) != EOF) into: while (1) { int ret; if (opt->nul_terminated) ret = strbuf_getline_nul(&input, stdin); else ret = strbuf_getline(&input, stdin); if (ret == EOF) break; } It's tempting to think that we could use `strbuf_getwholeline()` and specify either `\n` or `\0` as the terminating character. But for input on platforms that include a CR character preceeding the LF, this wouldn't quite be the same, since `strbuf_getline(...)` will trim any trailing CR, while `strbuf_getwholeline(&buf, stdin, '\n')` will not. In the future, we could clean this up further by introducing a variant of `strbuf_getwholeline()` that addresses the aforementioned gap, but that approach felt too heavy-handed for this pair of uses. Some tests are added in t1006 to ensure that `cat-file` produces the same output in `--batch`, `--batch-check`, and `--batch-command` modes with and without the new `-z` option.

A future commit will want to ensure that various `--batch`-related options produce the same output whether their input is newline terminated, or NUL terminated (and a to-be-implemented `-z` option exists). To prepare for this, extract the given input(s) into separate variables to that their LF characters can easily be converted into NUL bytes when testing the new `-z` mode. This is consistent with other tests in t1006 (which these days is no longer a shining example of our CodingGuidelines).

The error handling code path is meant to be triggered when the loop does not exit early via "break". This fails, as the boolean variable "found", which is used to track whether the loop was exited early, is initialized incorrectly. It would be possible to fix this issue by correcting the initialization, but Python supports a for:-else: control flow construct for this exact use case (executing code if a loop does not exit early), so it is more idiomatic to remove the tracking variable entirely.

Perforce silently replaces LF with CR LF for "utf16" files if the client is a native Windows client. Since git's autocrlf logic does not undo this transformation for UTF-16 encoded files, git-p4 replaces CR LF with LF during the sync if the file type "utf16" is detected and the Perforce client platform indicates that this conversion is performed. Windows only runs on little-endian architectures, therefore the encoding of the byte stream received from the Perforce client is UTF-16-LE and the relevant byte sequence is 0D 00 0A 00.

2022-07-19sequencer: rewrite update-refs as user edits todo listDerrick Stolee5-0/+268
An interactive rebase provides opportunities for the user to edit the todo list. The --update-refs option initializes the list with some 'update-ref <ref>' steps, but the user could add these manually. Further, the user could add or remove these steps during pauses in the interactive rebase. Add a new method, todo_list_filter_update_refs(), that scans a todo_list and compares it to the stored update-refs file. There are two actions that can happen at this point: 1. If a '<ref>/<before>/<after>' triple in the update-refs file does not have a matching 'update-ref <ref>' command in the todo-list _and_ the <after> value is the null OID, then remove that triple. Here, the user removed the 'update-ref <ref>' command before it was executed, since if it was executed then the <after> value would store the commit at that position. 2. If a 'update-ref <ref>' command in the todo-list does not have a matching '<ref>/<before>/<after>' triple in the update-refs file, then insert a new one. Store the <before> value to be the current OID pointed at by <ref>. This is handled inside of the init_update_ref_record() helper method. We can test that this works by rewriting the todo-list several times in the course of a rebase. Check that each ref is locked or unlocked for updates after each todo-list update. We can also verify that the ref update fails if a concurrent process updates one of the refs after the rebase process records the "locked" ref location. To help these tests, add a new 'set_replace_editor' helper that will replace the todo-list with an exact file.

2022-07-19rebase: update refs from 'update-ref' commandsDerrick Stolee3-18/+140
The previous change introduced the 'git rebase --update-refs' option which added 'update-ref <ref>' commands to the todo list of an interactive rebase. Teach Git to record the HEAD position when reaching these 'update-ref' commands. The ref/before/after triple is stored in the $GIT_DIR/rebase-merge/update-refs file. A previous change parsed this file to avoid having other processes updating the refs in that file while the rebase is in progress. Not only do we update the file when the sequencer reaches these 'update-ref' commands, we then update the refs themselves at the end of the rebase sequence. If the rebase is aborted before this final step, then the refs are not updated. The 'before' value is used to ensure that we do not accidentally obliterate a ref that was updated concurrently (say, by an older version of Git or a third-party tool). Now that the 'git rebase --update-refs' command is implemented to write to the update-refs file, we can remove the fake construction of the update-refs file from a test in t2407-worktree-heads.sh.

2022-07-19rebase: add --update-refs optionDerrick Stolee6-0/+216
When working on a large feature, it can be helpful to break that feature into multiple smaller parts that become reviewed in sequence. During development or during review, a change to one part of the feature could affect multiple of these parts. An interactive rebase can help adjust the multi-part "story" of the branch. However, if there are branches tracking the different parts of the feature, then rebasing the entire list of commits can create commits not reachable from those "sub branches". It can take a manual step to update those branches. Add a new --update-refs option to 'git rebase -i' that adds 'update-ref <ref>' steps to the todo file whenever a commit that is being rebased is decorated with that <ref>. At the very end, the rebase process updates all of the listed refs to the values stored during the rebase operation. Be sure to iterate after any squashing or fixups are placed. Update the branch only after those squashes and fixups are complete. This allows a --fixup commit at the tip of the feature to apply correctly to the sub branch, even if it is fixing up the most-recent commit in that part. This change update the documentation and builtin to accept the --update-refs option as well as updating the todo file with the 'update-ref' commands. Tests are added to ensure that these todo commands are added in the correct locations. This change does _not_ include the actual behavior of tracking the updated refs and writing the new ref values at the end of the rebase process. That is deferred to a later change.

2022-07-19sequencer: add update-ref commandDerrick Stolee3-1/+17
Add the boilerplate for an "update-ref" command in the sequencer. This connects to the current no-op do_update_ref() which will be filled in after more connections are created. The syntax in the todo list will be "update-ref <ref-name>" to signal that we should store the current commit as the value for updating <ref-name> at the end of the rebase.

2022-07-19sequencer: define array with enum valuesDerrick Stolee1-14/+14
The todo_command_info array defines which strings match with which todo_command enum values. The array is defined in the same order as the enum values, but if one changed without the other, then we would have unexpected results. Make it easier to see changes to the enum and this array by using the enum values as the indices of the array.

2022-07-19rebase-interactive: update 'merge' descriptionDerrick Stolee1-3/+3
The 'merge' command description for the todo list documentation in an interactive rebase has multiple lines. The lines other than the first one start with dots ('.') while the similar multi-line documentation for 'fixup' does not. This description only appears in the comment text of the todo file during an interactive rebase. The 'merge' command was documented when interactive rebase was first ported to C in 145e05ac44b (rebase -i: rewrite append_todo_help() in C, 2018-08-10). These dots might have been carried over from the previous shell implementation. The 'fixup' command was documented more recently in 9e3cebd97cb (rebase -i: add fixup [-C | -c] command, 2021-01-29). Looking at the output in an editor, my personal opinion is that the dots are unnecessary and noisy. Remove them now before adding more commands with multi-line documentation.

2022-07-19branch: consider refs under 'update-refs'Derrick Stolee4-0/+119
The branch_checked_out() helper helps commands like 'git branch' and 'git fetch' from overwriting refs that are currently checked out in other worktrees. A future update to 'git rebase' will introduce a new '--update-refs' option which will update the local refs that point to commits that are being rebased. To avoid collisions as the rebase completes, we want to make the future data store for these refs to be considered by branch_checked_out(). The data store is a plaintext file inside the 'rebase-merge' directory for that worktree. The file lists refnames followed by two OIDs, each on separate lines. The OIDs will be used to store the original values of the refs and the to-be-written values as the rebase progresses, but can be ignored at the moment. Create a new sequencer_get_update_refs_state() method that parses this file and populates a struct string_list with the ref-OID pairs. We can then use this list to add to the current_checked_out_branches strmap used by branch_checked_out(). To properly navigate to the rebase directory for a given worktree, extract the static strbuf_worktree_gitdir() method to a public API method. We can test that this works without having Git write this file by artificially creating one in our test script, at least until 'git rebase --update-refs' is implemented and we can use it directly.

2022-07-19t2407: test branches currently using apply backendDerrick Stolee1-1/+11
The tests in t2407 that verify the branch_checked_out() helper in the case of bisects and rebases were added by 9347303db89 (branch: check for bisects and rebases, 2022-06-08). However, that commit failed to check for rebases that are using the 'apply' backend. Add a test that checks the apply backend. The implementation was already correct here, but it is good to have regression tests before modifying the implementation further.

2022-07-19t2407: test bisect and rebase as black-boxesDerrick Stolee1-26/+31
The tests added by d2ba271aad0 (branch: check for bisects and rebases, 2022-06-14) modified hidden state to verify the branch_checked_out() helper. While this indeed checks that the method implementation is _as designed_, it doesn't show that it is _correct_. Specifically, if 'git bisect' or 'git rebase' change their back-end for preserving refs, then these tests do not demonstrate that drift as a bug in branch_checked_out(). Modify the tests in t2407 to actually rely on a paused bisect or rebase. This requires adding the !SANITIZE_LEAK prereq for tests using those builtins. The logic is still tested for leaks in the final test which does set up that back-end directly for an error state that should not be possible using Git commands.

2022-07-19transport.c: avoid "whitelist"Derrick Stolee1-4/+4
The word "whitelist" has cultural implications that are not inclusive. Thankfully, it is not difficult to reword and avoid its use. The GIT_ALLOW_PROTOCOL environment variable was referred to as a "whitelist", but the word "allow" is already part of the variable. Replace "whitelist" with "allow_list" in these cases to demonstrate that we are processing a list of allowed protocols.

The word "whitelist" has cultural implications that are not inclusive. Thankfully, it is not difficult to reword and avoid its use.

2022-07-19git-cvsserver: clarify directory listDerrick Stolee3-11/+12
The documentation and error messages for git-cvsserver include some references to a "whitelist" that is not otherwise included in the documentation. When different parts of the documentation do not use common language, this can lead to confusion as to how things are meant to operate. Further, the word "whitelist" has cultural implications that make its use non-inclusive. Thankfully, we can remove it while increasing clarity. Update Documentation/git-cvsserver.txt in a similar way to the previous change to Documentation/git-daemon.txt. The optional '<directory>...' list can specify a list of allowed directories. We refer to that list directly inside of the documentation for the GIT_CVSSERVER_ROOT environment variable. While modifying this documentation, update the environment variables to use a list format. We use the modern way of tabbing the description of each variable in this section. We do _not_ update the description of '<directory>...' to use tabs this way since the rest of the items in the OPTIONS list do not use this modern formatting. A single error message in the actual git-cvsserver.perl code refers to the whitelist during argument parsing. Instead, refer to the directory list that has been clarified in the documentation.
