log: --remerge-diff needs to keep around commit parents
To show a remerge diff, the merge needs to be recreated. For that to
work, the merge base(s) need to be found, which means that the commits'
parents have to be traversed until common ancestors are found (if any).
However, one optimization that hails all the way back to cb115748ec0d
(Some more memory leak avoidance, 2006-06-17) is to release the commit's
list of parents immediately after showing it _and to set that parent
list to `NULL`_. This can break the merge base computation.
This problem is most obvious when traversing the commits in reverse: In
that instance, if a parent of a merge commit has been shown as part of
the `git log` command, by the time the merge commit's diff needs to be
computed, that parent commit's list of parent commits will have been set
to `NULL` and as a result no merge base will be found (even if one
should be found).
Traversing commits in reverse is far from the only circumstance in which
this problem occurs, though. There are many avenues to traversing at
least one commit in the revision walk that will later be part of a merge
base computation, for example when not even walking any revisions in
`git show <merge1> <merge2>` where `<merge1>` is part of the commit
graph between the parents of `<merge2>`.
Another way to force a scenario where a commit is traversed before it
has to be traversed again as part of a merge base computation is to
start with two revisions (where the first one is reachable from the
second but not in a first-parent ancestry) and show the commit log with
`--topo-order` and `--first-parent`.
Let's fix this by special-casing the `remerge_diff` mode, similar to
what we did with reflogs in f35650dff6a4 (log: do not free parents when
walking reflog, 2017-07-07).

gitk: support auto-copy comit ID to primary clipboard
Auto-select ("Copy commit ID to X11 selection") is useful when a
selection cliboard exists, but otherwise generally meaningless, for
instance on Windows.
Add a similar pref and behavior which copies the commit ID to the
primary clipboard - for platforms without a selection clipboard, but
which can also be useful additionally on platforms with selection.
Note that while autoselect is enabled by default, autocopy isn't.
That's because the selection clipboard is typically dispensable, while
the primary clipboard can be considered a more precious resource,
which we don't want to (clear and) overwrite by default.
Signed-off-by: Avi Halachmi (:avih) <avihpit@yahoo.com>
Tl;DR: change Auto-select text, move the length input to a new line.
The Auto-select preference auto-selects [part of] the commit ID text
at the respective widget on startup, and when the current commit at
the graph changes.
Its real premise, however, is to populate the selection clipboard
with the commit ID. Consider, for instance, how meaningless it is on
platforms without a selection clipboard - like Windows or macOS (on
Windows the selection is not even visible with the default Tk theme,
because it's only visible in focused widgets - which the commit ID
widget is not during normal application of this selection).
So rename the Auto-select label to "Copy commit ID to X11 selection",
to reflect better the ultimate outcome of its application
Note that there exists other, non-X11 platforms with a selection
clipboard, like Wayland, and if a native Tk client exists on such
platforms, then the description will not be accurate, but hopefully
it's not too misleading either.
Additionally, move the length input widget to a new line, because:
- This length applies to both Auto-select and "Copy commit reference"
context menu item, so it's not exclusive to the selection length.
- The next commit will add support for primary clipboard as well,
where this length will also be used.
Also, move the "Hide remotes" item above these selection prefs, to
keep the selection prefs semi-grouped before the spacing of the
following title "Diff display options".

strvec: `strvec_splice()` to a statically initialized vector
We use a singleton empty array to initialize a `struct strvec`;
similar to the empty string singleton we use to initialize a `struct
strbuf`.
Note that an empty strvec instance (with zero elements) does not
necessarily need to be an instance initialized with the singleton.
Let's refer to strvec instances initialized with the singleton as
"empty-singleton" instances.
As a side note, this is the current `strvec_pop()`:
So, with `strvec_pop()` an instance can become empty but it does
not going to be the an "empty-singleton".
This "empty-singleton" circumstance requires us to be careful when
adding elements to instances. Specifically, when adding the first
element: when we detach the strvec instance from the singleton and
set the internal pointer in the instance to NULL. After this point we
apply `realloc()` on the pointer. We do this in
`strvec_push_nodup()`, for example.
The recently introduced `strvec_splice()` API is expected to be
normally used with non-empty strvec's. However, it can also end up
being used with "empty-singleton" strvec's:
struct strvec arr = STRVEC_INIT;
int a = 0, b = 0;

index-pack --promisor: also check commits' trees
Commit c08589efdc (index-pack: repack local links into promisor packs,
2024-11-01) seems to contain an oversight in that the tree of a commit
is not checked. Teach git to check these trees.
The fix slows down a fetch from a certain repo at $DAYJOB from 2m2.127s
to 2m45.052s, but in order to make the fetch correct, it seems worth it.
In order to test this, we could create server and client repos as
follows...
C S
\ /
O
(O and C are commits both on the client and server. S is a commit
only on the server. C and S have the same tree but different commit
messages. The diff between O and C is non-zero.)
...and then, from the client, fetch S from the server.
In theory, the client declares "have C" and the server can use this
information to exclude S's tree (since it knows that the client has C's
tree, which is the same as S's tree). However, it is also possible for
the server to compute that it needs to send S and not O, and proceed
from there; therefore the objects of C are not considered at all when
determining what to send in the packfile. In order to prevent a test of
client functionality from having such a dependence on server behavior, I
have not included such a test.

Commit c08589efdc (index-pack: repack local links into promisor packs,
2024-11-01) fixed a bug with what was believed to be a negligible
decrease in performance [1] [2]. But at $DAYJOB, with at least one repo,
it was found that the decrease in performance was very significant.
Looking at the patch, whenever we parse an object in the packfile to
be indexed, we check the targets of all its outgoing links for its
existence. However, this could be optimized by first collecting all such
targets into an oidset (thus deduplicating them) before checking. Teach
Git to do that.
On a certain fetch from the aforementioned repo, this improved
performance from approximately 7 hours to 24m47.815s. This number will
be further reduced in a subsequent patch.
object-name: fix reversed ordering with ":/<text>" revisions
Recently it was reported [1] that "look for the youngest commit
reachable from any ref with log message that match the given
pattern" syntax (i.e. ':/<text>') started to return results in
reverse recency order. This regression was introduced in Git v2.47.0
and is caused by a memory leak fix done in 57fb139b5e (object-name:
fix leaking commit list items, 2024-08-01).
The intent of the identified commit is to stop modifying the commit list
provided by the caller such that the caller can properly free all commit
list items, including those that the called function might potentially
remove from the list. This was done by creating a copy of the passed-in
commit list and modifying this copy instead of the caller-provided list.
We already knew to create such a copy beforehand with the `backup` list,
which was used to clear the `ONELINE_SEEN` commit mark after we were
done. So the refactoring simply renamed that list to `copy` and started
to operate on that list instead. There is a gotcha though: the backup
list, and thus now also the copied list, is always being prepended to,
so the resulting list is in reverse order! The end result is that we
pop commits from the wrong end of the commit list, returning commits in
reverse recency order.

fetch: do not ask for HEAD unnecessarily
In 3f763ddf28 (fetch: set remote/HEAD if it does not exist,
2024-11-22), git-fetch learned to opportunistically set $REMOTE/HEAD
when fetching by always asking for remote HEAD, in the hope that it
will help setting refs/remotes/<name>/HEAD if missing.
But it is not needed to always ask for remote HEAD. When we are
fetching from a remote, for which we have remote-tracking branches,
we do need to know about HEAD. But if we are doing one-shot fetch,
e.g.,
$ git fetch --tags https://github.com/git/git
we do not even know what sub-hierarchy of refs/remotes/<remote>/
we need to adjust the remote HEAD for. There is no need to ask for
HEAD in such a case.
Incidentally, because the unconditional request to list "HEAD"
affected the number of ref-prefixes requested in the ls-remote
request, this affected how the requests for tags are added to the
same ls-remote request, breaking "git fetch --tags $URL" performed
against a URL that is not configured as a remote.

Introduce support for the Meson build system, a "modern" meta build
system that supports many different platforms, including Linux, macOS,
Windows and BSDs. Meson supports different backends, including Ninja,
Xcode and Microsoft Visual Studio. Several common IDEs provide an
integration with it.
The biggest contender compared to Meson is probably CMake as outlined in
our "Documentation/technical/build-systems.txt" file. Based on my own
personal experience from working with both build systems extensively I
strongly favor Meson over CMake. In my opinion, it feels significantly
easier to use with a syntax that feels more like a "real" programming
language. The second big reason is that Meson supports Rust natively,
which may prove to be important given that the project may pick up Rust
as another language eventually.
Using Meson is rather straight-forward. An example:
```
# Meson uses out-of-tree builds. You can set up multiple build
# directories, how you name them is completely up to you.
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ meson setup .. -Dprefix=/tmp/git-installation
# Build the project. This also provides several other targets like
e.g. `install` or `test`.
$ ninja
# Meson has been wired up to support execution of our test suites.
# Both our unit tests and our integration tests are supported.
# Running `meson test` without any arguments will execute all tests,
# but the syntax supports globbing to select only some tests.
$ meson test 't-*'
# Execute single test interactively to allow for debugging.
$ meson test 't0000-*' --interactive --test-args=-ix
```
The build instructions have been successfully tested on the following
systems, tests are passing:
- Apple macOS 10.15.
- FreeBSD 14.1.
- NixOS 24.11.
- OpenBSD 7.6.
- Ubuntu 24.04.
- Windows 10 with Cygwin.
- Windows 10 with MinGW64, except for t9700, which is also broken with
our Makefile.
- Windows 10 with Visual Studio 2022 toolchain, using the Native Tools
Command Prompt with `meson setup --vsenv`. Tests pass, except for
t9700.
- Windows 10 with Visual Studio 2022 solution, using the Native Tools
Command Prompt with `meson setup --backend vs2022`. Tests pass,
except for t9700.
- Windows 10 with VS Code, using the Meson plug-in.
It is expected that there will still be rough edges in the current
version. If this patch lands the expectation is that it will coexist
with our other build systems for a while. Like this, distributions can
slowly migrate over to Meson and report any findings they have to us
such that we can continue to iterate. A potential cutoff date for other
build systems may be Git 3.0.
Some notes:
- The installed distribution is structured somewhat differently than
how it used to be the case. All of our binaries are installed into
`$libexec/git-core`, while all binaries part of `$bindir` are now
symbolic links pointing to the former. This rule is consistent in
itself and thus easier to reason about.
- We do not install dashed binaries into `$libexec/git-core` anymore,
so there won't e.g. be a symlink for git-add(1). These are not
required by modern Git and there isn't really much of a use case for
those anymore. By not installing those symlinks we thus start the
deprecation of this layout.
- We're targeting Meson 1.3.0, which has been released relatively
recently November 2023. The only feature we use from that version is
`fs.relative_to()`, which we could replace if necessary. If so, we
could start to target Meson 1.0.0 and newer, released in December
2022.
- The whole build instructions count around 3300 lines, half of which
is listing all of our code and test files. Our Makefiles are around
5000 lines, autoconf adds another 1300 lines. CMake in comparison
has only 1200 linescode, but it avoids listing individual files and
does not wire up auto-configuration as extensively as the Meson
instructions do.
- We bundle a set of subproject wrappers for curl, expat, openssl,
pcre2 and zlib. This allows developers to build Git without these
dependencies preinstalled, and Meson will fetch and build them
automatically. This is especially helpful on Windows.

Our "test-lib.sh" assumes that our build directory is the parent
directory of "t/". While true when using our Makefile, it's not when
using build systems that support out-of-tree builds.
In commit ee9e66e4e7 (cmake: avoid editing t/test-lib.sh, 2022-10-18),
we have introduce support for overriding the GIT_BUILD_DIR by creating
the file "$GIT_BUILD_DIR/GIT-BUILD-DIR" with its contents pointing to
the location of the build directory. The intent was to stop modifying
"t/test-lib.sh" with the CMake build systems while allowing out-of-tree
builds. But "$GIT_BUILD_DIR" is somewhat misleadingly named, as it in
fact points to the _source_ directory. So while that commit solved part
of the problem for out-of-tree builds, CMake still has to write files
into the source tree.
Solve the second part of the problem, namely not having to write any
data into the source directory at all, by also supporting an environment
variable that allows us to point to a different build directory. This
allows us to perform properly self-contained out-of-tree builds.

Our in-tree builds used by the Makefile use various different build
directories scattered around different locations. The paths to those
build directories have to be propagated to our tests such that they can
find the contained files. This is done via a mixture of hardcoded paths
in our test library and injected variables in our bin-wrappers or
"GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS".
The latter two mechanisms are preferable over using hardcoded paths. For
one, we have all paths which are subject to change stored in a small set
of central files instead of having the knowledge of build paths in many
files. And second, it allows build systems which build files elsewhere
to adapt those paths based on their own needs. This is especially nice
in the context of build systems that use out-of-tree builds like CMake
or Meson.
Remove hardcoded knowledge of build paths from our test library and move
it into our bin-wrappers and "GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS".

Documentation: allow sourcing generated includes from separate dir
Our documentation uses "include::" directives to include parts that are
either reused across multiple documents or parts that we generate at
build time. Unfortunately, top-level includes are only ever resolved
relative to the base directory, which is typically the directory of the
including document. Most importantly, it is not possible to have either
asciidoc or asciidoctor search multiple directories.
It follows that both kinds of includes must live in the same directory.
This is of course a bummer for out-of-tree builds, because here the
dynamically-built includes live in the build directory whereas the
static includes live in the source directory.
Introduce a `build_dir` attribute and prepend it to all of our includes
for dynamically-built files. This attribute gets set to the build
directory and thus converts the include path to an absolute path, which
asciidoc and asciidoctor know how to resolve.
Note that this change also requires us to update "build-docdep.perl",
which tries to figure out included files such our Makefile can set up
proper build-time dependencies. This script simply scans through the
source files for any lines that match "^include::" and treats the
remainder of the line as included file path. But given that those may
now contain the "{build_dir}" variable we have to teach the script to
replace that attribute with the actual build directory.

way the pristine templates are laid out in our source directory is
somewhat weird though: instead of reconstructing the actual directory
hierarchy in "templates/", we represent directory separators with "--".
The only reason I could come up with for why we have this is the
"branches/" directory, which is supposed to be empty when installing it.
And as Git famously doesn't store empty directories at all we have to
work around this limitation.
Now the thing is that the "branches/" directory is a leftover to how
branches used to be stored in the dark ages. gitrepository-layout(5)
lists this directory as "slightly deprecated", which I would claim is a
strong understatement. I have never encountered anybody using it today
and would be surprised if it even works as expected. So having the "--"
hack in place for an item that is basically unused, unmaintained and
deprecated doesn't only feel unreasonable, but installing that entry by
default may also cause confusion for users that do not know what this is
supposed to be in the first place.
Remove this directory from our templates and, now that we do not require
the workaround anymore, restructure the templates to form a proper
hierarchy. This makes it way easier for build systems to install these
templates into place.
We should likely think about removing support for "branch/" altogether,
but that is outside of the scope of this patch series.

Makefile: allow "bin-wrappers/" directory to exist

In order to generate "gitweb.cgi" we have to replace various different
placeholders. This is done ad-hoc and is thus not easily reusable across
different build systems.
Introduce a new GITWEB-BUILD-OPTIONS.in template that we populate at
configuration time with the expected options. This script is then used
as input for a new "generate-gitweb.sh" script that generates the final
"gitweb.cgi" file. While this requires us to repeat the options multiple
times, it is in line to how we generate other build options like our
GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS file.
While at it, refactor how we replace the GITWEB_PROJECT_MAXDEPTH. Even
though this variable is supposed to be an integer, the source file has
the value quoted. The quotes are eventually stripped via sed(1), which
replaces `"@GITWEB_PROJECT_MAXDEPTH@"` with the actual value, which is
rather nonsensical. This is made clearer by just dropping the quotes in
the source file.

Our "GIT-VERSION-GEN" script always writes the "GIT-VERSION-FILE" into
the current directory, where the expectation is that it should exist in
the source directory. But other build systems that support out-of-tree
builds may not want to do that to keep the source directory pristine,
even though CMake currently doesn't care.
Refactor the script such that it won't write the "GIT-VERSION-FILE"
directly anymore, but instead knows to replace @PLACEHOLDERS@ in an
arbitrary input file. This allows us to simplify the logic in CMake to
determine the project version, but can also be reused later on in order
to generate other files that need to contain version information like
our "git.rc" file.
While at it, change the format of the version file by removing the
spaces around the equals sign. Like this we can continue to include the

We have a bunch of placeholders in our scripts that we replace at build

different formats: @PLACEHOLDER@, @@PLACEHOLDER@@ and ++PLACEHOLDER++.
Next to being inconsistent it also creates a bit of a problem with
CMake, which only supports the first syntax in its `configure_file()`
function. To work around that we instead manually replace placeholders
via string operations, which is a hassle and removes safeguards that
CMake has to verify that we didn't forget to replace any placeholders.
Besides that, other build systems like Meson also support the CMake
syntax.

Makefile: use common template for GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS
The "GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS" file is generated by our build systems to
propagate built-in features and paths to our tests. The generation is
done ad-hoc, where both our Makefile and the CMake build instructions
simply echo a bunch of strings into the file. This makes it very hard to
figure out what variables are expected to exist and what format they
have, and the written variables can easily get out of sync between build
systems.
Introduce a new "GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS.in" template to address this issue.
This has multiple advantages:
- It demonstrates which built options exist in the first place.
- It can serve as a spot to document the build options.
- Some build systems complain when not all variables could be
substituted, alerting us of mismatches. Others don't, but if we
forgot to substitute such variables we now have a bogus string that
will likely cause our tests to fail, if they have any meaning in the
first place.
Backfill values that we didn't yet set in our CMake build instructions.
While at it, remove the `SUPPORTS_SIMPLE_IPC` variable that we only set
up in CMake as it isn't used anywhere.
This change requires us to adapt the setup of TEST_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY in
"test-lib.sh" such that it does not get overwritten after sourcing when
it has been set up via the environment. This is the only instance I
could find where we rely on ordering on variables.

describe: split "found all tags" and max_candidates logic
Commit a30154187a (describe: stop traversing when we run out of names,
2024-10-31) taught git-describe to automatically reduce the
max_candidates setting to match the total number of possible names. This
lets us break out of the traversal rather than fruitlessly searching for
more candidates when there are no more to be found.
However, setting max_candidates to 0 (e.g., if the repo has no tags)
overlaps with the --exact-match option, which explicitly uses the same
value. And this causes a regression with --always, which is ignored in
exact-match mode. We used to get this in a repo with no tags:
The reason is that we bail early in describe_commit() when
max_candidates is set to 0. This logic goes all the way back to 2c33f75754 (Teach git-describe --exact-match to avoid expensive tag
searches, 2008-02-24).
We should obviously fix this regression, but there are two paths,
depending on what you think:
$ git describe --always --exact-match
and
$ git describe --always --candidates=0
should do. Since the "--always" option was added, it has always been
ignored in --exact-match (or --candidates=0) mode. I.e., we treat
--exact-match as a true exact match of a tag, and never fall back to
using --always, even if it was requested.
If we think that's a bug (or at least a misfeature), then the right
solution is to fix it by removing the early bail-out from 2c33f75754,
letting the noop algorithm run and then hitting the --always fallback
output. And then our regression naturally goes away, because it follows
the same path.
If we think that the current "--exact-match --always" behavior is the
right thing, then we have to differentiate the case where we
automatically reduced max_candidates to 0 from the case where the user
asked for it specifically. That's possible to do with a flag, but we can
also just reimplement the logic from a30154187a to explicitly break out
of the traversal when we run out of candidates (rather than relying on
the existing max_candidates check).
My gut feeling is along the lines of option 1 (it's a bug, and people
would be happy for "--exact-match --always" to give the fallback rather
than ignoring "--always"). But the documentation can be interpreted in
the other direction, and we've certainly lived with the existing
behavior for many years. So it's possible that changing it now is the
wrong thing.
So this patch fixes the regression by taking the second option,
retaining the "--exact-match" behavior as-is. There are two new tests.
The first shows that the regression is fixed (we don't even need a new
repo without tags; a restrictive --match is enough to create the
situation that there are no candidate names).
The second test confirms that the "--exact-match --always" behavior
remains unchanged and continues to die when there is no tag pointing at
the specified commit. It's possible we may reconsider this in the
future, but this shows that the approach described above is implemented
faithfully.
We can also run the perf tests in p6100 to see that we've retained the
speedup that a30154187a was going for:

Currently if we want to have a remote/HEAD locally that is different

changes HEAD, our only option is to have an indiscriminate warning with

"warn-if-not-$branch", where $branch is a branch name we do not wish to

otherwise, behave as "warn".
E.g. let's assume, that our remote origin has HEAD
set to "master", but locally we have "git remote set-head origin seen".
Setting 'remote.origin.followRemoteHEAD = "warn"' will always print
a warning, even though the remote has not changed HEAD from "master".
Setting 'remote.origin.followRemoteHEAD = "warn-if-not-master" will
squelch the warning message, unless the remote changes HEAD from
"master". Note, that should the remote change HEAD to "seen" (which we
have locally), there will still be no warning.
