In the check for multiline, we traverse the backslashes from the end
backwards and int the end assert that we haven't gone past the beginning
of the line. We make sure of this in the loop condition, but we also
check in the return value.
However, for certain configurations, a line in a multiline variable
might be empty to aid formatting. In that case, 'end' == 'start', since
we ended up looking at the first char which made it a multiline.
There is no need for the (end > start) check in the return, since the
loop guarantees we won't go further back than the first char in the
line, and we do accept the first char to be the final backslash.
This fixes#2483.
Now that our strmap is no longer modified but replaced, we can use the
same strmap for the snapshot's values and it will be freed when we don't
need it anymore.
When we delete an entry, we also want to refresh the configuration to
catch any changes that happened externally.
This allows us to simplify the logic, as we no longer need to delete
these variables internally. The whole state will be refreshed and the
deleted entries won't be there.
With the isolation of complex reads, we can now try to refresh the
on-disk file before reading a value from it.
This changes the semantics a bit, as before we could be sure that a
string we got from the configuration was valid until we wrote or
refreshed. This is no longer the case, as a read can also invalidate the
pointer.
Current code sets the active map to a new one and builds it whilst it's
active. This is a race condition with someone else trying to access the
same config.
Instead, let's build up our new map and swap the active and new one.
In order to have consistent views of the config files for remotes,
submodules et al. and a configuration that represents what is currently
stored on-disk, we need a way to provide a view of the configuration
that does not change.
The goal here is to provide the snapshotting part by creating a
read-only copy of the state of the configuration at a particular point
in time, which does not change when a repository's main config changes.
This adds a basic test of doing simultaneous diffs on multiple
threads and adds basic locking for the attr file cache because
that was the immediate problem that arose from these tests.
This adds `git_config__lookup_entry` which will look up a key in
a config and return either the entry or NULL if the key was not
present. Optionally, it can either suppress all errors or can
return them (although not finding the key is not an error for this
function). Unlike other accessors, this does not normalize the
config key string, so it must only be used when the key is known
to be in normalized form (i.e. all lower-case before the first dot
and after the last dot, with no invalid characters).
This also adds three high-level helper functions to look up config
values with no errors and a fallback value. The three functions
are for string, bool, and int values, and will resort to the
fallback value for any error that arises. They are:
* `git_config__get_string_force`
* `git_config__get_bool_force`
* `git_config__get_int_force`
None of them normalize the config `key` either, so they can only
be used for internal cases where the key is known to be in normal
format.
We used to move `data_start` forward, which is wrong as that needs to
point to the beginning of the buffer in order to perform size
calculations.
Introduce a `write_start` variable which indicates where we should start
writing from, which is what the `data_start` was being wrongly reused to
be.
At some moment git_config_delete_entry lost the ability to delete one entry of
a multivar configuration. The moment you had more than one fetch or push
ref spec for a remote you will not be able to save that remote anymore. The
changes in network::remote::remotes::save show that problem.
I needed to create a new git_config_delete_multivar because I was not able to
remove one or several entries of a multivar config with the current API.
Several tries modifying how git_config_set_multivar(..., NULL) behaved were
not successful.
git_config_delete_multivar is very similar to git_config_set_multivar, and
delegates into config_delete_multivar of config_file. This function search
for the cvar_t that will be deleted, storing them in a temporal array, and
rebuilding the linked list. After calling config_write to delete the entries,
the cvar_t stored in the temporal array are freed.
There is a little fix in config_write, it avoids an infinite loop when using
a regular expression (case for the multivars). This error was found by the
test network::remote::remotes::tagopt.
This makes the git_buf struct that was used internally into an
externally available structure and eliminates the git_buffer.
As part of that, some of the special cases that arose with the
externally used git_buffer were blended into the git_buf, such as
being careful about git_buf objects that may have a NULL ptr and
allowing for bufs with a valid ptr and size but zero asize as a
way of referring to externally owned data.
As the include depth increases, the chance of a realloc
increases. This means that whenever we run git_array_alloc() or call
config_parse(), we need to remember what our reader's index is so we
can look it up again.
We need to refresh the variables from the included files if they are
changed, so loop over all included files and re-parse the files if any
of them has changed.
In order to support config includes, we must differentiate between the
backend's main file and the file we are currently parsing.
This lays the groundwork for includes, keeping the current behaviours.
`git_config_set_string(config, "config.section", "")` fails when
escaping the value.
The buffer in `escape_value` is allocated without NULL-termination. And
in case of empty string 0 is passed for buffer size in `git_buf_grow`.
`git_buf_detach` returns NULL when the allocated size is 0 and that
leads to an error return in `GITERR_CHECK_ALLOC` called after
`escape_value`
The change in `config_file.c` was suggested by Russell Belfer <rb@github.com>
new functions in struct git_config_backend:
* iterator_new(...)
* iterator_free(...)
* next(...)
The old callback based foreach style can still be used with `git_config_backend_foreach_match`
This step is needed to easily add iterators to git_config_backend
As well use these new git_strmap functions to implement foreach
* git_strmap_iter
* git_strmap_has_data(...)
* git_strmap_begin(...)
* git_strmap_end(...)
* git_strmap_next(...)
The GIT_CONFIG_LEVEL constants actually work well as an enum
because they are mutually exclusive, so this adds a typedef to
the enum and uses that everywhere that one of these constants are
expected, instead of the old code that typically used an unsigned
int.
This is a new implementation of core git's config key checking
rules that prevents non-alphanumeric characters (and '-') for
the top-level section and key names inside of config files.
This also validates the target section name when renaming
sections.
Check whether the backslash at the end of the line is being escaped or
not so as not to consider it a continuation marker when it's e.g. a
Windows-style path.
There are many scattered functions that look into the contents of
buffers to do various text manipulations (such as escaping or
unescaping data, calculating text stats, guessing if content is
binary, etc). This groups all those functions together into a
new file and converts the code to use that.
This has two enhancements to existing functionality. The old
text stats function is significantly rewritten and the BOM
detection code was extended (although largely we can't deal with
anything other than a UTF8 BOM).
This adds a new API that allows users to reload the config if the
file has changed on disk. A new config callback function to
refresh the config was added.
The modified time and file size are used to test if the file needs
to be reloaded (and are now stored in the disk backend object).
In writing tests, just using mtime was a problem / race, so I
wanted to check file size as well. To support that, I extended
`git_futils_readbuffer_updated` to optionally check file size in
addition to mtime, and I added a new function `git_filebuf_stats`
to fetch the mtime and size for an open filebuf (so that the
config could be easily refreshed after a write).
Lastly, I moved some similar file checking code for attributes
into filebuf. It is still only being used for attrs, but it
seems potentially reusable, so I thought I'd move it over.
Added `struct git_config_entry`: a git_config_entry contains the key, the value, and the config file level from which a config element was found.
Added `git_config_open_level`: build a single-level focused config object from a multi-level one.
We are now storing `git_config_entry`s in the khash of the config_file
Defining the BOM as a string makes the array include the
NUL-terminator, which means that the memcpy is going to check for that
as well and thus never match for a nonempty file.
Define the array as three chars, which makes the size correct.
This refactors the diff output code so that an iterator object
can be used to traverse and generate the diffs, instead of just
the `foreach()` style with callbacks. The code has been rearranged
so that the two styles can still share most functions.
This also replaces `GIT_REVWALKOVER` with `GIT_ITEROVER` and uses
that as a common error code for marking the end of iteration when
using a iterator style of object.
This fixes up a number of problems flagged by valgrind and also
cleans up the internal `git_submodule` allocation handling
overall with a simpler model.
This updates all the `foreach()` type functions across the library
that take callbacks from the user to have a consistent behavior.
The rules are:
* A callback terminates the loop by returning any non-zero value
* Once the callback returns non-zero, it will not be called again
(i.e. the loop stops all iteration regardless of state)
* If the callback returns non-zero, the parent fn returns GIT_EUSER
* Although the parent returns GIT_EUSER, no error will be set in
the library and `giterr_last()` will return NULL if called.
This commit makes those changes across the library and adds tests
for most of the iteration APIs to make sure that they follow the
above rules.
Adding a new config iteration function that let's you iterate
over just the config entries that match a particular regular
expression. The old foreach becomes a simple use of this with
an empty pattern.
This also fixes an apparent bug in the existing `git_config_foreach`
where returning a non-zero value from the iteration callback was
not correctly aborting the iteration and the returned value was
not being propogated back to the caller of foreach.
Added to tests to cover all these changes.
When a configuration option is set, we didn't check to see whether
there was any escaping needed. Escape the available characters so we
can unescape them correctly when we read them.
This renamed `git_khash_str` to `git_strmap`, `git_hash_oid` to
`git_oidmap`, and deletes `git_hashtable` from the tree, plus
adds unit tests for `git_strmap`.
This updates khash.h with some extra features (like error checking
on allocations, ability to use wrapped malloc, foreach calls, etc),
creates two high-level wrappers around khash: `git_khash_str` and
`git_khash_oid` for string-to-void-ptr and oid-to-void-ptr tables,
then converts all of the old usage of `git_hashtable` over to use
these new hashtables.
For `git_khash_str`, I've tried to create a set of macros that
yield an API not too unlike the old `git_hashtable` API. Since
the oid hashtable is only used in one file, I haven't bother to
set up all those macros and just use the khash APIs directly for
now.
This adds a `git_pool` object that can do simple paged memory
allocation with free for the entire pool at once. Using this,
you can replace many small allocations with large blocks that
can then cheaply be doled out in small pieces. This is best
used when you plan to free the small blocks all at once - for
example, if they represent the parsed state from a file or data
stream that are either all kept or all discarded.
There are two real patterns of usage for `git_pools`: either
for "string" allocation, where the item size is a single byte
and you end up just packing the allocations in together, or for
"fixed size" allocation where you are allocating a large object
(e.g. a `git_oid`) and you generally just allocation single
objects that can be tightly packed. Of course, you can use it
for other things, but those two cases are the easiest.
