`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>
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.
When using a rename source that is actually a to-be-split record,
we have to update the best-fit mapping data in both the case where
the target is also a split record and the case where the target
is a simple added record. Before this commit, we were only doing
the update when the target was itself a split record (and even in
that case, the test was slightly wrong).
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 size data in the index may not reflect the actual size of the
blob data from the ODB when content filtering comes into play.
This commit fixes rename detection to use the actual blob size when
calculating data signatures instead of the value from the index.
Because of a misunderstanding on my part, I first converted the
git_index_add_bypath API to use the post-filtered blob data size
in creating the index entry. I backed that change out, but I
kept the overall refactoring of that routine and the new internal
git_blob__create_from_paths API because it eliminates an extra
stat() call from the code that adds a file to the index.
The existing tests actually cover this code path, at least when
running on Windows, so at this point I'm not adding new tests to
cover the changes.
The previous fix for checking file sizes with rename detection
always loads the blob. In this version, if the odb backend can
get the object header without loading the whole thing into memory,
then we'll just use that, so that we can eliminate possible rename
sources & targets without loading them.
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.
This restores the usage of GIT_DIFF_LINE_BINARY for the diff
output line that reads "Binary files x and y differ" so that it
can be optionally colorized independently of the file header.
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.
Instead of using lots of strdup calls, this adds a memory pool to
the loose refs iteration code and uses it for keeping track of the
loose refs array. Memory usage could probably be reduced even
further by eliminating the vector and just scanning by adding the
strlen of each ref, but that would be a more intrusive changes.
This also updates the error handling to be more thorough about
checking for failed allocations, etc.
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.
This makes git__swap use the __sync_lock_test_and_set primitive
with GCC and the InterlockedExchangePointer primitive with MSVC.
Previously is used compare_and_swap in a way that was probably
unintuitive for most thinking (i.e. it could fail to swap in the
value if another thread raced in). Now it will always succeed
and the last thread to run in a race will win instead of the
first thread.
This also fixes up a little confusion between volatile void **
and void * volatile * that came up with the Win32 compiler.
This restores a behavior that was accidentally lost during some
diff refactoring where an untracked directory that contains a .git
item should be treated as IGNORED, not as UNTRACKED. The submodule
code already detects this, but the diff code was not handling the
scenario right.
This also updates a number of existing tests that were actually
exercising the behavior but did not have the right expectations in
place. It actually makes the new
`test_diff_submodules__diff_ignore_options` test feel much better
because the "not-a-submodule" entries are now ignored instead of
showing up as untracked items.
Fixes#1697
This adds correct support for an equivalent to --ignore-submodules
in diff, where an actual ignore value can be passed to diff to
override the per submodule settings in the configuration.
This required tweaking the constants for ignore values so that
zero would not be used and could represent an unset option to the
diff. This was an opportunity to move the submodule values into
include/git2/types.h and to rename the poorly named DEFAULT values
for ignore and update constants to RESET instead.
Now the GIT_DIFF_IGNORE_SUBMODULES flag is exactly the same as
setting the ignore_submodules option to GIT_SUBMODULE_IGNORE_ALL
(which is actually a minor change from the old behavior in that
submodules will now be treated as UNMODIFIED deltas instead of
being left out totally - if you set GIT_DIFF_INCLUDE_UNMODIFIED).
This includes tests for the various new settings.
