upload-pack: kill pack-objects helper on signal or exit
We spawn an external pack-objects process to actually send objects to
the remote side. If we are killed by a signal during this process, then
pack-objects may continue to run. As soon as it starts producing output
for the pack, it will see a failure writing to upload-pack and exit
itself. But before then, it may do significant work traversing the
object graph, compressing deltas, etc, which will all be pointless. So
let's make sure to kill as soon as we know that the caller will not read
the result.
There's no test here, since it's inherently racy, but here's an easy
reproduction is on a large-ish repo like linux.git:
- make sure you don't have pack bitmaps (since they make the enumerating
phase go quickly). For linux.git it takes ~30s or so to walk the
whole graph on my machine.
- run "git clone --no-local -q . dst"; the "-q" is important because
if pack-objects is writing progress to upload-pack (to get
multiplexed over the sideband to the client), then it will notice
pretty quickly the failure to write to stderr
- kill the client-side clone process in another terminal (don't use
^C, as that will send SIGINT to all of the processes)
- run "ps au | grep git" or similar to observe upload-pack dying
within 5 seconds (it will send a keepalive that will notice the
client has gone away)
- but you'll still see pack-objects consuming 100% CPU (and 1GB+ of
RAM) during the traversal and delta compression phases. It will exit
as soon as it starts to write the pack (when it will notice that
upload-pack went away).
With this patch, pack-objects exits as soon as upload-pack does.

usage: add trace2 entry upon warning()

This helps debugging issues that would trigger warnings but not errors.
In particular, this might have helped debugging an issue I encountered

There is a tradeoff between including potentially relevant messages and
cluttering up the trace output produced. I think that warning() messages
should be included in traces, because by its nature, Git is used over
multiple invocations of the Git tool, and a failure (currently traced)
in a Git invocation might be caused by an unexpected interaction in a
previous Git invocation that only has a warning (currently untraced) as
a symptom - as is the case in [1].

that is what you meant---then the flow of the logic makes sense".
But that is not the happy end of the story. New contributors often
forget that the material that has been reviewed in the above exchange
is still unclear in the same way to the next person who reads it,
until it gets updated.
While we are in the vicinity, rephrase the verb "request" used to
refer to comments by reviewers to "suggest"---this matches the
contrast between "original" and "suggested" that appears later in

reviewers are merely helping authors to polish their commits.

submodule: fix fetch_in_submodule logic
Commit 1c1518071c (submodule: use "fetch" logic instead of custom remote
discovery, 2020-11-14) rewrote the logic in fetch_in_submodule to do:
elif test "$2" -ne ""
But this is nonsense in shell: -ne is for numeric comparisons. This
should be "=" or more idiomatically:
elif test -n "$2"
But once we fix that, many tests start failing. Because that commit
introduced another problem. The caller that passes 3 arguments looks
like this:
fetch_in_submodule "$sm_path" $depth "$sha1"
Note the unquoted $depth parameter. When it isn't set, the function will
see only 2 arguments, and the function has no idea if what it sees in $2
is an option to go on the command line, or a refspec to pass on stdin.
In the old code before that commit:
fetch_in_submodule () (
sanitize_submodule_env &&
cd "$1" &&
- case "$2" in
- '')
- git fetch ;;
- *)
- shift
- git fetch $(get_default_remote) "$@" ;;
- esac
we treated those the same, so it didn't matter. But in the new logic
(with my fix above):
+ if test $# -eq 3
+ then
+ echo "$3" | git fetch --stdin "$2"
+ elif test -n "$n"
+ then
+ git fetch "$2"
+ else
+ git fetch
+ fi
we use the number of parameters to distinguish the two. Let's insist
that the caller pass an empty string for positional parameter two if
they want to have a third parameter after it.
But that still leaves one problem. In the --stdin block, we
unconditionally pass "$2" to git-fetch, even if it's the empty string.
Rather than add another conditional, we can use :+ parameter expansion
to include it only if it's non-empty. In fact, we can do the same for
the elif, too, simplifying it further. Technically this is overkill,
since we know the --depth parameter will not have whitespace (and
indeed, most callers do not bother quoting it), but it doesn't hurt for
the function to be careful.
It's somewhat amazing that no tests were failing. I think what happened
is that:
- the 3-arg form rarely triggered; any call with a non-empty $depth
and a $sha1 would work, but one with an empty $depth would only have
2 arguments
- because of the wrong arguments to "test", the shell would complain
and exit non-zero. So we never ran the middle conditional at all
- that left every call running "git fetch" with no arguments. A
well-written test could have detected the distinction here, but in
practice omitting --depth just means fetching more commits, and
fetching everything (rather than a single sha1) works as long as the
commit in question is reachable

t1309: use a neutral branch name in the `onbranch` test cases
The `onbranch` test cases touched by this patch do not actually try to
include any other config. Their purpose is to avoid regressing on two
bugs in the `include.onbranch:<name>.path` code that we fixed in the
past, bugs that are actually unrelated to any concrete branch name.
The first bug was fixed in 85fe0e800ca (config: work around bug with
includeif:onbranch and early config, 2019-07-31). Essentially, when
reading early config, there would be a catch-22 trying to access the
refs, and therefore we simply cannot evaluate the condition at that
point. The test case ensures that we avoid emitting this bogus message:
BUG: refs.c:1851: attempting to get main_ref_store outside of repository
The second test case concerns the non-Git scenario, where we simply do
not have a current branch to begin with (because we don't have a
repository in the first place), and the test case was introduced in 22932d9169f (config: stop checking whether the_repository is NULL,
2019-08-06) to ensure that we don't cause a segmentation fault should
the code still incorrectly try to look at any ref.
In short, neither of these two test cases will ever look at a current
branch name, even in case of regressions. Therefore, the actual branch
name does not matter at all. We can therefore easily avoid
racially-charged branch names here, and that's what this patch does.

tests: make sure nested lazy prereqs work reliably
Some test prereqs depend on other prereqs, so in a couple of cases we
have nested prereqs that look something like this:
test_lazy_prereq FOO '
test_have_prereq BAR &&
check-foo
'
This can be problematic, because lazy prereqs are evaluated in the
'$TRASH_DIRECTORY/prereq-test-dir' directory, which is the same for
every prereq, and which is automatically removed after the prereq has
been evaluated. So if the inner prereq (BAR above) is a lazy prereq
that hasn't been evaluated yet, then after its evaluation the
'prereq-test-dir' shared with the outer prereq will be removed.
Consequently, 'check-foo' will find itself in a non-existing
directory, and won't be able to create/access any files in its cwd,
which could result in an unfulfilled outer prereq.
Luckily, this doesn't affect any of our current nested prereqs, either
because the inner prereq is not a lazy prereq (e.g. MINGW, CYGWIN or
PERL), or because the outer prereq happens to be checked without
touching any paths in its cwd (GPGSM and RFC1991 in 'lib-gpg.sh').
So to prevent nested prereqs from interfering with each other let's
evaluate each prereq in its own dedicated directory by appending the
prereq's name to the directory name, e.g. 'prereq-test-dir-SYMLINKS'.
In the test we check not only that the prereq test dir is still there,
but also that the inner prereq can't mess with the outer prereq's
files.

builtin/repack.c: don't move existing packs out of the way
When 'git repack' creates a pack with the same name as any existing
pack, it moves the existing one to 'old-pack-xxx.{pack,idx,...}' and
then renames the new one into place.
Eventually, it would be nice to have 'git repack' allow for writing a
multi-pack index at the critical time (after the new packs have been
written / moved into place, but before the old ones have been deleted).
Guessing that this option might be called '--write-midx', this makes the
following situation (where repacks are issued back-to-back without any
new objects) impossible:
$ git repack -adb
$ git repack -adb --write-midx
In the second repack, the existing packs are overwritten verbatim with
the same rename-to-old sequence. At that point, the current MIDX is
invalidated, since it refers to now-missing packs. So that code wants to
be run after the MIDX is re-written. But (prior to this patch) the new
MIDX can't be written until the new packs are moved into place. So, we
have a circular dependency.
This is all hypothetical, since no code currently exists to write a MIDX
safely during a 'git repack' (the 'GIT_TEST_MULTI_PACK_INDEX' does so
unsafely). Putting hypothetical aside, though: why do we need to rename
existing packs to be prefixed with 'old-' anyway?
This behavior dates all the way back to 2ad47d6 (git-repack: Be
careful when updating the same pack as an existing one., 2006-06-25). 2ad47d6 is mainly concerned about a case where a newly written pack
would have a different structure than its index. This used to be
possible when the pack name was a hash of the set of objects. Under this
naming scheme, two packs that store the same set of objects could differ
in delta selection, object positioning, or both. If this happened, then
any such packs would be unreadable in the instant between copying the
new pack and new index (i.e., either the index or pack will be stale
depending on the order that they were copied).
But since 1190a1a (pack-objects: name pack files after trailer hash,
2013-12-05), this is no longer possible, since pack files are named not
after their logical contents (i.e., the set of objects), but by the
actual checksum of their contents. So, this old- behavior can safely go,
which allows us to avoid our circular dependency above.
In addition to avoiding the circular dependency, this patch also makes
'git repack' a lot simpler, since we don't have to deal with failures
encountered when renaming existing packs to be prefixed with 'old-'.
This patch is mostly limited to removing code paths that deal with the
'old' prefixing, with the exception of files that include the pack's
name in their own filename, like .idx, .bitmap, and related files. The
exception is that we want to continue to trust what pack-objects wrote.
That is, it is not the case that we pretend as if pack-objects didn't
write files identical to ones that already exist, but rather that we
respect what pack-objects wrote as the source of truth. That cuts two
ways:
- If pack-objects produced an identical pack to one that already
exists with a bitmap, but did not produce a bitmap, we remove the
bitmap that already exists. (This behavior is codified in t7700.14).
- If pack-objects produced an identical pack to one that already
exists, we trust the just-written version of the coresponding .idx,
.promisor, and other files over the ones that already exist. This
ensures that we use the most up-to-date versions of this files,
which is safe even in the face of format changes in, say, the .idx
file (which would not be reflected in the .idx file's name).

pull: check for local submodule modifications with the right range
Ever since 'git pull' learned '--recurse-submodules' in a6d7eb2c7a
(pull: optionally rebase submodules (remote submodule changes only),
2017-06-23), we check if there are local submodule modifications by
checking the revision range 'curr_head --not rebase_fork_point'.
The goal of this check is to abort the pull if there are submodule
modifications in the local commits being rebased, since this scenario is
not supported.
However, the actual range of commits being rebased is not
'rebase_fork_point..curr_head', as the logic in
'get_rebase_newbase_and_upstream' reveals, it is 'upstream..curr_head'.
If the 'git merge-base --fork-point' invocation in
'get_rebase_fork_point' fails to find a fork point between the current
branch and the remote-tracking branch we are pulling from,
'rebase_fork_point' is null and since 4d36f88be7 (submodule: do not pass
null OID to setup_revisions, 2018-05-24), 'submodule_touches_in_range'
checks 'curr_head' and all its ancestors for submodule modifications.
Since it is highly likely that there are submodule modifications in this
range (which is in effect the whole history of the current branch), this
prevents 'git pull --rebase --recurse-submodules' from succeeding if no
fork point exists between the current branch and the remote-tracking
branch being pulled. This can happen, for example, when the current
branch was forked from a commit which was never recorded in the reflog
of the remote-tracking branch we are pulling, as the last two paragraphs
of the "Discussion on fork-point mode" section in git-merge-base(1)
explain.
Fix this bug by passing 'upstream' instead of 'rebase_fork_point' as the
'excl_oid' argument to 'submodule_touches_in_range'.

t5572: add notes on a peculiar test
Test 5572.63 ("branch has no merge base with remote-tracking
counterpart") was introduced in 4d36f88be7 (submodule: do not pass null
OID to setup_revisions, 2018-05-24), as a regression test for the bug
this commit was fixing (preventing a 'fatal: bad object' error when the
current branch and the remote-tracking branch we are pulling have no
merge-base).
However, the commit message for 4d36f88be7 does not describe in which
real-life situation this bug was encountered. The brief discussion on the
mailing list [1] does not either.
The regression test is not really representative of a real-life
scenario: both the local repository and its upstream have only a single
commit, and the "no merge-base" scenario is simulated by recreating this
root commit in the local repository using 'git commit-tree' before
calling 'git pull --rebase --recurse-submodules'. The rebase succeeds
and results in the local branch being reset to the same root commit as
the upstream branch.
The fix in 4d36f88be7 modifies 'submodule.c::submodule_touches_in_range'
so that if 'excl_oid' is null, which is the case when the 'git merge-base
--fork-point' invocation in 'builtin/pull.c::get_rebase_fork_point'
errors (no fork-point), then instead of 'incl_oid --not excl_oid' being
passed to setup_revisions, only 'incl_oid' is passed, and
'submodule_touches_in_range' examines 'incl_oid' and all its ancestors
to verify that they do not touch the submodule.
In test 5572.63, the recreated lone root commit in the local repository is
thus the only commit being examined by 'submodule_touches_in_range', and
this commit *adds* the submodule. However, 'submodule_touches_in_range'
*succeeds* because 'combine-diff.c::diff_tree_combined' (see the
backtrace below) returns early since this commit is the root commit
and has no parents.
#0 diff_tree_combined at combine-diff.c:1494
#1 0x0000000100150cbe in diff_tree_combined_merge at combine-diff.c:1649

add -i: verify in the tests that colors can be overridden
Now that the Perl version produces the same output as the built-in
version (mostly fixing bugs in the latter), let's add a regression test
to verify that it stays this way.
Note that we only `grep` for the colored error message instead of
verifying that the entire `stderr` consists of just this one line: when
running the test script using the `-x` option to trace the
commands, the sub-shell in `force_color` causes those commands to be
traced into `err.raw` (unless running in Bash where we set the
`BASH_XTRACEFD` variable to avoid that).
Also note that the color reset in the `<BLUE>+<RESET><BLUE>new<RESET>`
line might look funny and unnecessary, as the corresponding `old` line
does not reset the color after the diff marker only to turn the color
back on right away.
However, this is a (necessary) side effect of the white-space check: in
`emit_line_ws_markup()`, we first emit the diff marker via
`emit_line_0()` and then the rest of the line via `ws_check_emit()`. To
leave them somewhat decoupled, the color has to be reset after the diff
marker to allow for the rest of the line to start with another color (or
inverted, in case of white-space issues).
Finally, we have to simulate hunk editing: the `git add -p` command
cannot rely on the internal diff machinery for coloring after letting
the user edit a hunk; It has to "re-color" the edited hunk. This is the
primary reason why that command is interested in the exact values of the
`color.diff.*` settings in the first place. To test this re-coloring, we
therefore have to pretend to edit a hunk and then show that hunk in the
regression test.

add -p: prefer color.diff.context over color.diff.plain
Git's diff machinery allows users to override the colors to use in
diffs, even the plain-colored context lines. As of 8dbf3eb6850 (diff.h:
rename DIFF_PLAIN color slot to DIFF_CONTEXT, 2015-05-27), the preferred
name of the config setting is `color.diff.context`, although Git still
allows `color.diff.plain`.
In the context of `git add -p`, this logic is a bit hard to replicate:
`git_diff_basic_config()` reads all config values sequentially and if it
sees _any_ `color.diff.context` or `color.diff.plain`, it accepts the
new color. The Perl version of `git add -p` needs to go through `git
config --get-color`, though, which allows only one key to be specified.
The same goes for the built-in version of `git add -p`, which has to go
through `repo_config_get_value()`.
The best we can do here is to look for `.context` and if none is found,
fall back to looking for `.plain`, and if still not found, fall back to
the hard-coded default (which in this case is simply the empty string,
as context lines are typically rendered without colored).
This still leads to inconsistencies when both config names are used: the
initial diff will be colored by the diff machinery. Once edited by a
user, a hunk has to be re-colored by `git add -p`, though, which would
then use the other setting to color the context lines.
In practice, this is not _all_ that bad. The `git config` manual says
this in the `color.diff.<slot>`:
`context` (context text - `plain` is a historical synonym)
We should therefore assume that users use either one or the other, but
not both names. Besides, it is relatively uncommon to look at a hunk
after editing it because it is immediately staged by default.
