Accept any value for the remote's url, including an empty string which
we used to reject as invalid configuration.
This is not quite what git does (although it has its own problems with
such configurations) and it makes it harder to fix the issue, by not
letting the user modify it.
As we already need to check for a valid URL when we try to connect to
the network, let that perform the check, as we don't need to do it
anywhere else.
Set up the ssh credentials so we are able to talk to localhost and
issue git commands. Move to use a script, as the command list is
getting somewhat long.
While here, delay installing valgrind until we need it, as it and its
dependencies are by far the largest downloads and this allows us to
start compiling (and failing) faster and we only incur this cost when
the test suite runs successfully.
This is just a bunch of small fixes that I noticed while looking
at the UTF8 and UTF16 path stuff. It fixes a slowdown in looking
for an empty directory (not exiting loop asap), makes the dir name
in the git__DIR structure be a GIT_FLEX_ARRAY to save an allocation,
and fixes some slightly odd assumptions in the cl_getenv helper.
The routines to push and pop ignore files while traversing a
directory had some issues. In particular, setting up the initial
list would sometimes push an ignore file before it ought to be
applied if the starting path was a directory containing an ignore
file. Also, the pop function was not always matching the right
part of the path and would fail to pop ignores from the list in
some cases.
This adds some tests that exercise a particular problematic case
and then fixes the problems that I could find related to this.
At some point, I'd like to isolate this ignore rule management
code and rewrite it, but that's a larger project and right now,
I'll opt to just try to fix the broken behaviors.
This rolls back the changes to fnmatch parsing from commit
2e40a60e84 except for the tests
that were added. Instead this adds couple of new flags that can
be passed in when attempting to parse an fnmatch pattern. Also,
this changes the pathspec match logic to special case matching a
filename with a '!' prefix against a negative pattern.
This fixes the build.
`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>
The test coverage for ambiguous OIDs was pretty thin. This adds
a bunch of new objects both in packs, across packs, and loose that
match to 8 characters so that we can test various cases of
ambiguous lookups.
In git_diff_paired_foreach, temporarily resort the
index->workdir diff list by index path so that we can
track a rename in the workdir from head->index->workdir.
Create a new section of clar tests "stress" that will default to
being off where we can put slow tests that push the library for
performance testing purposes.
After doing further profiling, I found that a lot of time was
being spent attempting to insert hashes into the file hash
signature when using the rolling hash because the rolling hash
approach generates a hash per byte of the file instead of one
per run/line of data.
To optimize this, I decided to convert back to a run-based file
signature algorithm which would be more like core Git.
After changing this, a number of the existing tests started to
fail. In some cases, this appears to have been because the test
was coded to be too specific to the particular results of the file
similarity metric and in some cases there appear to have been bugs
in the core rename detection code where only by the coincidence
of the file similarity scoring were the expected results being
generated.
This renames all the variables in the core rename detection code
to be more consistent and hopefully easier to follow which made it
a bit easier to reason about the behavior of that code and fix the
problems that I was seeing. I think it's in better shape now.
There are a couple of tests now that attempt to stress test the
rename detection code and they are quite slow. Most of the time
is spent setting up the test data on disk and in the index. When
we roll out performance improvements for index insertion, it
should also speed up these tests I hope.
The performance improvements I introduced for rename detection
were not able to run successfully for tree-to-tree diffs because
the blob size was not known early enough and so the file signature
always had to be calculated nonetheless.
This change separates loading blobs into memory from calculating
the signature. I can't avoid having to load the large blobs into
memory, but by moving it forward, I'm able to avoid the signature
calculation if the blob won't come into play for renames.
Before the optimization commits, this test used to take about 20
seconds to run on my machine. Afterwards, there is still a couple
seconds of data setup, but the actual diff and rename detection
runs in a fraction of a second.
This allows git_diff_patch_size to account for hunk headers and
file headers in the returned size. This required some refactoring
of the code that is used to print file headers so that it could be
invoked by the git_diff_patch_size API.
Also this increases the test coverage and fixes an off-by-one bug
in the size calculation when newline changes happen at the end of
the file.
The git_reference_next API silently skips invalid references when
scanning the loose refs. The git_reference_next_name API should
skip the same ones even though it isn't creating the reference
object.
This adds a test with a an invalid loose reference and makes sure
that both APIs skip the same entries and generate the same results.
