2026-07-06gitlab-ci: enable "GIT_TEST_LONG"Patrick Steinhardt1-2/+10
Starting with 7a094d68a2 (ci: run expensive tests on push builds to integration branches, 2026-05-08) we run expensive tests in our CI for certain events. So far, this has only been wired up for GitHub Workflows though, which creates a test gap for GitLab CI. Plug this gap by also making this work for the latter. Note that these tests cannot be run on the Windows runners, as they only have 7.5GB of RAM. This is insufficient for some of the EXPENSIVE tests, so we explicitly disable "GIT_TEST_LONG" on these jobs.

2026-05-11ci: enable EXPENSIVE for contributor buildsJunio C Hamano1-4/+6
Earlier, we enabled EXPENSIVE tests for pushes to integration branches. As we didn't have any CI jobs that run these tests, this was a step in the right direction. It however is an ineffective and inefficient use of the maintainer time, which does not scale, to allow contributors to send changes that are less tested at the list, only to force the maintainer notice breakages caused by their changes but only after these changes are mixed with changes from other contributors. The problematic topic needs to be isolated by bisecting, and it historically has been done by the maintainer alone. It is far better to let the problem identified early, preferably before the problematic code leaves the hands of the original developer. In order for it to happen, the test coverage of the contributor tests must be at least as wide as the coverage of the integration tests. Enable expensive tests for CI jobs triggered by pull requests. This will make each contributor take care of their own, which scales much better. Keep the expensive tests also enabled for the pushes of integration branches, as that is the only place we can notice problems stemming from mismerges and inter-topic interactions, even if the topics from the contributors in isolation all passes these tests.

2026-05-09ci: run expensive tests on push builds to integration branchesJohannes Schindelin1-0/+9
Derrick Stolee suggested [1] that expensive tests should be run at a regular cadence rather than on every PR iteration. Gate GIT_TEST_LONG on push builds to the integration branches (next, master, main, maint) so that the EXPENSIVE prereq is satisfied there but not during PR validation, where the extra minutes of wall-clock time do not justify themselves.

2026-04-09Enable Rust by defaultbrian m. carlson1-0/+3
Our breaking changes document says that we'll enable Rust by default in Git 2.54. Adjust the Makefile to switch the option from WITH_RUST to NO_RUST to enable it by default and update the help text accordingly. Similarly, for Meson, enable the option by default and do not automatically disable it if Cargo is missing, since the goal is to help users find where they are likely to have problems in the future. Update our CI tests to swap out the single Linux job with Rust to a single job without, both for Makefile and Meson. Similarly, update the Windows Makefile job to not use Rust, while the Meson job (which does not build with ci/lib.sh) will default to having it enabled. Move the check for Cargo in the Meson build because it is no longer needed in the main script.

2026-03-02ci: unset GITLAB_FEATURES envvar to not bust xargs(1) limitsPatrick Steinhardt1-0/+4
We have started to see the following assert happen in our GitLab CI pipelines for jobs that use Windows with Meson: assertion "bc_ctl.arg_max >= LINE_MAX" failed: file "xargs.c", line 512, function: main The assert in question verifies that we have enough room available to pass at least `LINE_MAX` many bytes via the command line. The xargs(1) binary in those jobs comes from Git for Windows, which in turn sources the binaries from MSYS2, and has the following limits in place: $ & "C:/Program Files/Git/usr/bin/bash.exe" -l -c 'xargs --show-limits </dev/null' Your environment variables take up 17373 bytes POSIX upper limit on argument length (this system): 12579 POSIX smallest allowable upper limit on argument length (all systems): 4096 Maximum length of command we could actually use: 18446744073709546822 Size of command buffer we are actually using: 12579 Maximum parallelism (--max-procs must be no greater): 2147483647 What's interesting to see is the limit of 16 exabits for the maximum command line length. This value might seem a bit high, and it is indeed the result of an underflow: our environment is larger than the POSIX upper limit on argument length, and the value is computed by subtracting the former from the latter. So what we get is the result of `2^64 - (17373 - 12579)`. This makes it clear that the problem here is the size of our environment variables. A listing sorted by length yields the following result: $ Get-ChildItem "Env:" | Sort-Object { $_.Value.Length } -Descending | Select-Object Name, @{Name="Length"; Expression={$_.Value.Length}} Name Length ---- ------ GITLAB_FEATURES 6386 Path 706 PSModulePath 229 The GITLAB_FEATURES environment variable makes up for roughly a third of the complete environment. This variable is a comma-separated list of features available for the GitLab instance, and seemingly it has been growing over time as GitLab added more and more features. Fix the issue by unsetting the environment variable in "ci/lib.sh". This ensures that the environment variables are now smaller than the upper limit on argument length again, and that in turn fixes the assert in xargs(1).

2026-01-19ci: skip CVS and P4 tests in leaks job, tooJunio C Hamano1-0/+2
Looking at the CI logs, the p4 and cvs tests account for another 24 minutes of test time and they offer minimal value for quite a similar reason as the previous step.

2026-01-17ci(*-leaks): skip the git-svn tests to save timeJohannes Schindelin1-0/+1
I noticed recently that the leak-checking jobs still take a lot of time, and upon analysis, the git-svn tests contribute significantly to this. Analyzing a recent CI run, I saw that the Git test suite contains 1,017 tests, running for approximately 5¼ hours total. Of these, 65 git-svn-related tests (~6% of test count) took 42.24 minutes combined, accounting for ~13.% of the total runtime. This implies that the git-svn tests are roughly twice as expernsive compared to the other tests. However, testing git-svn in the leak-checking jobs provides minimal value: git-svn is implemented as a Perl script, and leak checking only handles C code. While git-svn does call into Git's built-in commands that are implemented in C, these are standard Git operations that are already thoroughly exercised elsewhere in the test suite. Therefore, running the git-svn tests in the leak-checking jobs only adds to the overall run time with little value in return. Given that the leak-checking jobs are particularly time-intensive and these 42+ minutes of SVN tests per job provide no additional leak detection value, skip them in the *-leaks jobs to reduce CI runtime.

2025-02-20ci: fix propagating UTF-8 test locale in musl-based Meson jobPatrick Steinhardt1-2/+2
The musl-based Meson job is supposed to explicitly specify the UTF-8 locale used for testing, which has been introduced with 84bb5eeace7 (ci: switch linux-musl to use Meson, 2025-01-28). That commit had two issues though: - We continue to refer to "linux-musl", even though the job has been renamed in the same commit to "linux-musl-meson". - We use the wrong option name to specify the locale. This was not noticed though due to the first issue. Fix both of these issues by fixing both the job and option naems.

2025-01-28ci: switch linux-musl to use MesonPatrick Steinhardt1-4/+1
Switch over the "linux-musl" job to use Meson instead of Makefiles. This is done due to multiple reasons: - It simplifies our CI infrastructure a bit as we don't have to manually specify a couple of build options anymore. - It verifies that Meson detects and sets those build options automatically. - It makes it easier for us to wire up a new CI job using zlib-ng as backend. One platform compatibility that Meson cannot easily detect automatically is the `GIT_TEST_UTF8_LOCALE` variable used in tests. Wire up a build option for it, which we set via a new "MESONFLAGS" environment variable. Note that we also drop the CC variable, which is set to "gcc". We already default to GCC when CC is unset in "ci/lib.sh", so this is not needed. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2025-01-22ci: merge linux-gcc-default into linux-gccPatrick Steinhardt1-5/+0
The "linux-gcc-default" job is mostly doing the same as the "linux-gcc" job, except for a couple of minor differences: - We use an explicit GCC version instead of the default version provided by the distribution. We have other jobs that test with "gcc-8", making this distinction pointless. - We don't set up the Python version explicitly, and instead use the default Python version. Python 2 has been end-of-life for quite a while now though, making this distinction less interesting. - We set up the default branch name to be "main" in "linux-gcc". We have other testcases that don't and also some that explicitly use "master". - We use "ubuntu:20.04" in one job and "ubuntu:latest" in another. We already have a couple other jobs testing these respectively. So overall, the job does not add much to our test coverage. Drop the "linux-gcc-default" job and adapt "linux-gcc" to start using the default GCC compiler, effectively merging those two jobs into one.

2025-01-01Revert barrier-based LSan threading race workaroundJunio C Hamano1-1/+0
The extra "barrier" approach was too much code whose sole purpose was to work around a race that is not even ours (i.e. in LSan's teardown code). In preparation for queuing a solution taking a much-less-invasive approach, let's revert them.
2024-12-30thread-utils: introduce optional barrier typeJeff King1-0/+1
One thread primitive we don't yet support is a barrier: it waits for all threads to reach a synchronization point before letting any of them continue. This would be useful for avoiding the LSan race we see in index-pack (and other places) by having all threads complete their initialization before any of them start to do real work. POSIX introduced a pthread_barrier_t in 2004, which does what we want. But if we want to rely on it: 1. Our Windows pthread emulation would need a new set of wrapper functions. There's a Synchronization Barrier primitive there, which was introduced in Windows 8 (which is old enough for us to depend on). 2. macOS (and possibly other systems) has pthreads but not pthread_barrier_t. So there we'd have to implement our own barrier based on the mutex and cond primitives. Those are do-able, but since we only care about avoiding races in our LSan builds, there's an easier way: make it a noop on systems without a native pthread barrier. This patch introduces a "maybe_thread_barrier" API. The clunky name (rather than just using pthread_barrier directly) should hopefully clue people in that on some systems it will do nothing. It's wired to a Makefile knob which has to be triggered manually, and we enable it for the linux-leaks CI jobs (since we know we'll have it there). There are some other possible options: - we could turn it on all the time for Linux systems based on uname. But we really only care about it for LSan builds, and there is no need to add extra code to regular builds. - we could turn it on only for LSan builds. But that would break builds on non-Linux platforms (like macOS) that otherwise should support sanitizers. - we could trigger only on the combination of Linux and LSan together. This isn't too hard to do, but the uname check isn't completely accurate. It is really about what your libc supports, and non-glibc systems might not have it (though at least musl seems to). So we'd risk breaking builds on those systems, which would need to add a new knob. Though the upside would be that running local "make SANITIZE=leak test" would be protected automatically. And of course none of this protects LSan runs from races on systems without pthread barriers. It's probably OK in practice to protect only our CI jobs, though. The race is rare-ish and most leak-checking happens through CI. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

Whenever we source "ci/lib.sh" we wrap the directives in a separate group so that they can easily be collapsed in the web UI. And as we source the script multiple times during a single CI run we thus end up with the same section name reused multiple times, as well. This is broken on GitLab CI though, where reusing the same group name is not supported. The consequence is that only the last of these sections can be collapsed.

2024-11-21test-lib: unconditionally enable leak checkingPatrick Steinhardt1-1/+0
Over the last two releases we have plugged a couple hundred of memory leaks exposed by the Git test suite. With the preceding commits we have finally fixed the last leak exposed by our test suite, which means that we are now basically leak free wherever we have branch coverage. From hereon, the Git test suite should ideally stay free of memory leaks. Most importantly, any test suite that is being added should automatically be subject to the leak checker, and if that test does not pass it is a strong signal that the added code introduced new memory leaks and should not be accepted without further changes. Drop the infrastructure around TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK to reflect this new requirement. Like this, all test suites will be subject to the leak checker by default. This is being intentionally strict, but we still have an escape hatch: the SANITIZE_LEAK prerequisite. There is one known case in t5601 where the leak sanitizer itself is buggy, so adding this prereq in such cases is acceptable. Another acceptable situation is when a newly added test uncovers preexisting memory leaks: when fixing that memory leak would be sufficiently complicated it is fine to annotate and document the leak accordingly. But in any case, the burden is now on the patch author to explain why exactly they have to add the SANITIZE_LEAK prerequisite. The TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK annotations will be dropped in the next patch. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

Next to some generic variables, we also set up some variables that are specific to the actual platform that the CI operates on, e.g. Linux or macOS. We do not yet support Windows runners on GitLab CI. Unfortunately, those systems do not use the same "CI_JOB_IMAGE" environment variable as both Linux and macOS do. Instead, we can use the "OS" variable, which should have a value of "Windows_NT" on Windows platforms. Handle the combination of "$OS,$CI_JOB_IMAGE" and introduce support for Windows.

2024-09-13ci: add Ubuntu 16.04 job to GitLab CIPatrick Steinhardt1-1/+8
In the preceding commits we had to convert the linux32 job to be based on Ubuntu 20.04 instead of Ubuntu 16.04 due to a limitation in GitHub Workflows. This was the only job left that still tested against this old but supported Ubuntu version, and we have no other jobs that test with a comparatively old Linux distribution. Add a new job to GitLab CI that tests with Ubuntu 16.04 to cover the resulting test gap. GitLab doesn't modify Docker images in the same way GitHub does and thus doesn't fall prey to the same issue. There are two compatibility issues uncovered by this: - Ubuntu 16.04 does not support HTTP/2 in Apache. We thus cannot set `GIT_TEST_HTTPD=true`, which would otherwise cause us to fail when Apache fails to start. - Ubuntu 16.04 cannot use recent JGit versions as they depend on a more recent Java runtime than we have available. We thus disable installing any kind of optional dependencies that do not come from the package manager. These two restrictions are fine though, as we only really care about whether Git compiles and runs on such old distributions in the first place.

As we currently describe in t/README, it can happen that: Some tests run "git" (or "test-tool" etc.) without properly checking the exit code, or git will invoke itself and fail to ferry the abort() exit code to the original caller. Therefore, GIT_TEST_SANITIZE_LEAK_LOG=true is needed to be set to capture all memory leaks triggered by our tests. It seems unnecessary to force users to remember this option, as forgetting it could lead to missed memory leaks. We could solve the problem by making it "true" by default, but that might suggest we think "false" makes sense, which isn't the case. Therefore, the best approach is to remove the option entirely while maintaining the capability to detect memory leaks in blind spots of our tests.

In 5ca0c455f1 (ci: fix Python dependency on Ubuntu 24.04, 2024-05-06), we made the use of Python 2 conditional on whether or not the CI job runs Ubuntu 20.04.

2024-05-06ci: fix Python dependency on Ubuntu 24.04Patrick Steinhardt1-2/+6
Newer versions of Ubuntu have dropped Python 2 starting with Ubuntu 23.04. By default though, our CI setups will try to use that Python version on all Ubuntu-based jobs except for the "linux-gcc" one. We didn't notice this issue due to two reasons: - The "ubuntu:latest" tag always points to the latest LTS release. Until a few weeks ago this was Ubuntu 22.04, which still had Python 2. - Our Docker-based CI jobs had their own script to install dependencies until 9cdeb34b96 (ci: merge scripts which install dependencies, 2024-04-12), where we didn't even try to install Python at all for many of them. Since the CI refactorings have originally been implemented, Ubuntu 24.04 was released, and it being an LTS versions means that the "latest" tag now points to that Python-2-less version. Consequently, those jobs that use "ubuntu:latest" broke. Address this by using Python 2 on Ubuntu 20.04, only, whereas we use Python 3 on all other Ubuntu jobs. Eventually, we should think about dropping support for Python 2 completely.

2024-05-03ci: pre-collapse GitLab CI sectionsJustin Tobler1-1/+1
Sections of CI output defined by `begin_group()` and `end_group()` are expanded in GitLab pipelines by default. This can make CI job output rather noisy and harder to navigate. Update the behavior for GitLab pipelines to now collapse sections by default. Signed-off-by: Justin Tobler <jltobler@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2024-04-12ci: fix setup of custom path for GitLab CIPatrick Steinhardt1-1/+1
Part of "install-dependencies.sh" is to install some binaries required for tests into a custom directory that gets added to the PATH. This directory is located at "$HOME/path" and thus depends on the current user that the script executes as. This creates problems for GitLab CI, which installs dependencies as the root user, but runs tests as a separate, unprivileged user. As their respective home directories are different, we will end up using two different custom path directories. Consequently, the unprivileged user will not be able to find the binaries that were set up as root user. Fix this issue by allowing CI to override the custom path, which allows GitLab to set up a constant value that isn't derived from "$HOME".

2024-04-12ci: merge custom PATH directoriesPatrick Steinhardt1-7/+3
We're downloading various executables required by our tests. Each of these executables goes into its own directory, which is then appended to the PATH variable. Consequently, whenever we add a new dependency and thus a new directory, we would have to adapt to this change in several places. Refactor this to instead put all binaries into a single directory.

2024-04-12ci: rename "runs_on_pool" to "distro"Patrick Steinhardt1-2/+2
The "runs_on_pool" environment variable is used by our CI scripts to distinguish the different kinds of operating systems. It is quite specific to GitHub Actions though and not really a descriptive name. Rename the variable to "distro" to clarify its intent.

2024-01-18ci: add macOS jobs to GitLab CIPatrick Steinhardt1-1/+8
Add a job to GitLab CI which runs tests on macOS, which matches the equivalent "osx-clang" job that we have for GitHub Workflows. One significant difference though is that this new job runs on Apple M1 machines and thus uses the "arm64" architecture. As GCC does not yet support this comparatively new architecture we cannot easily include an equivalent for the "osx-gcc" job that exists in GitHub Workflows. Note that one test marked as `test_must_fail` is surprisingly passing: t7815-grep-binary.sh (Wstat: 0 Tests: 22 Failed: 0) TODO passed: 12 This seems to boil down to an unexpected difference in how regcomp(3P) works when matching NUL bytes. Cross-checking with the respective GitHub job shows that this is not an issue unique to the GitLab CI job as it passes in the same way there.

2024-01-18ci: make p4 setup on macOS more robustPatrick Steinhardt1-0/+3
When setting up Perforce on macOS we put both `p4` and `p4d` into "$HOME/bin". On GitHub CI this directory is indeed contained in the PATH environment variable and thus there is no need for additional setup than to put the binaries there. But GitLab CI does not do this, and thus our Perforce-based tests would be skipped there even though we download the binaries. Refactor the setup code to become more robust by downloading binaries into a separate directory which we then manually append to our PATH. This matches what we do on Linux-based jobs. Note that it may seem like we already did append "$HOME/bin" to PATH because we're actually removing the lines that adapt PATH. But we only ever adapted the PATH variable in "ci/install-dependencies.sh", and didn't adapt it when running "ci/run-build-and-test.sh". Consequently, the required binaries wouldn't be found during the test run unless the CI platform already had the "$HOME/bin" in PATH right from the start.
