Check the tutorial +mentioned above towards the top for a discussion of where the OID can come +from. + +`whence` indicates some information about what to do with the parents of the +specified object. We'll explore this flag more later on; take a look at +`Documentation/revisions.txt` to get an idea of what could set the `whence` +value. + +`flags` are used to hint the beginning of the revision walk and are the first +block under the `#include`s in `revision.h`. The most likely ones to be set in +the `rev_cmdline_info` are `UNINTERESTING` and `BOTTOM`, but these same flags +can be used during the walk, as well. + +=== `struct rev_info` + +This one is quite a bit longer, and many fields are only used during the walk +by `revision.c` - not configuration options. Most of the configurable flags in +`struct rev_info` have a mirror in `Documentation/rev-list-options.txt`. It's a +good idea to take some time and read through that document. + +== Basic Commit Walk + +First, let's see if we can replicate the output of `git log --oneline`. We'll +refer back to the implementation frequently to discover norms when performing +an object walk of our own. + +To do so, we'll first find all the commits, in order, which preceded the current +commit. We'll extract the name and subject of the commit from each. + +Ideally, we will also be able to find out which ones are currently at the tip of +various branches. + +=== Setting Up + +Preparing for your object walk has some distinct stages. + +1. Perform default setup for this mode, and others which may be invoked. +2. Check configuration files for relevant settings. +3. Set up the `rev_info` struct. +4. Tweak the initialized `rev_info` to suit the current walk. +5. Prepare the `rev_info` for the walk. +6. Iterate over the objects, processing each one. + +==== Default Setups + +Before examining configuration files which may modify command behavior, set up +default state for switches or options your command may have. If your command +utilizes other Git components, ask them to set up their default states as well. +For instance, `git log` takes advantage of `grep` and `diff` functionality, so +its `init_log_defaults()` sets its own state (`decoration_style`) and asks +`grep` and `diff` to initialize themselves by calling each of their +initialization functions. + +For our first example within `git walken`, we don't intend to use any other +components within Git, and we don't have any configuration to do. However, we +may want to add some later, so for now, we can add an empty placeholder. Create +a new function in `builtin/walken.c`: + +---- +static void init_walken_defaults(void) +{ + /* + * We don't actually need the same components `git log` does; leave this + * empty for now. + */ +} +---- + +Make sure to add a line invoking it inside of `cmd_walken()`. + +---- +int cmd_walken(int argc, const char **argv, const char *prefix) +{ + init_walken_defaults(); +} +---- + +==== Configuring From `.gitconfig` + +Next, we should have a look at any relevant configuration settings (i.e., +settings readable and settable from `git config`). This is done by providing a +callback to `git_config()`; within that callback, you can also invoke methods +from other components you may need that need to intercept these options. Your +callback will be invoked once per each configuration value which Git knows about +(global, local, worktree, etc.). + +Similarly to the default values, we don't have anything to do here yet +ourselves; however, we should call `git_default_config()` if we aren't calling +any other existing config callbacks. + +Add a new function to `builtin/walken.c`: + +---- +static int git_walken_config(const char *var, const char *value, void *cb) +{ + /* + * For now, we don't have any custom configuration, so fall back to + * the default config. + */ + return git_default_config(var, value, cb); +} +---- + +Make sure to invoke `git_config()` with it in your `cmd_walken()`: + +---- +int cmd_walken(int argc, const char **argv, const char *prefix) +{ + ... + + git_config(git_walken_config, NULL); + + ... +} +---- + +==== Setting Up `rev_info` + +Now that we've gathered external configuration and options, it's time to +initialize the `rev_info` object which we will use to perform the walk. This is +typically done by calling `repo_init_revisions()` with the repository you intend +to target, as well as the `prefix` argument of `cmd_walken` and your `rev_info` +struct. + +Add the `struct rev_info` and the `repo_init_revisions()` call: +---- +int cmd_walken(int argc, const char **argv, const char *prefix) +{ + /* This can go wherever you like in your declarations.*/ + struct rev_info rev; + ... + + /* This should go after the git_config() call. */ + repo_init_revisions(the_repository, &rev, prefix); + + ... +} +---- + +==== Tweaking `rev_info` For the Walk + +We're getting close, but we're still not quite ready to go. Now that `rev` is +initialized, we can modify it to fit our needs. This is usually done within a +helper for clarity, so let's add one: + +---- +static void final_rev_info_setup(struct rev_info *rev) +{ + /* + * We want to mimic the appearance of `git log --oneline`, so let's + * force oneline format. + */ + get_commit_format("oneline", rev); + + /* Start our object walk at HEAD. */ + add_head_to_pending(rev); +} +---- + +[NOTE] +==== +Instead of using the shorthand `add_head_to_pending()`, you could do +something like this: +---- + struct setup_revision_opt opt; + + memset(&opt, 0, sizeof(opt)); + opt.def = "HEAD"; + opt.revarg_opt = REVARG_COMMITTISH; + setup_revisions(argc, argv, rev, &opt); +---- +Using a `setup_revision_opt` gives you finer control over your walk's starting +point. +==== + +Then let's invoke `final_rev_info_setup()` after the call to +`repo_init_revisions()`: + +---- +int cmd_walken(int argc, const char **argv, const char *prefix) +{ + ... + + final_rev_info_setup(&rev); + + ... +} +---- + +Later, we may wish to add more arguments to `final_rev_info_setup()`. But for +now, this is all we need. + +==== Preparing `rev_info` For the Walk + +Now that `rev` is all initialized and configured, we've got one more setup step +before we get rolling. We can do this in a helper, which will both prepare the +`rev_info` for the walk, and perform the walk itself. Let's start the helper +with the call to `prepare_revision_walk()`, which can return an error without +dying on its own: + +---- +static void walken_commit_walk(struct rev_info *rev) +{ + if (prepare_revision_walk(rev)) + die(_("revision walk setup failed")); +} +---- + +NOTE: `die()` prints to `stderr` and exits the program. Since it will print to +`stderr` it's likely to be seen by a human, so we will localize it. + +==== Performing the Walk! + +Finally! We are ready to begin the walk itself. Now we can see that `rev_info` +can also be used as an iterator; we move to the next item in the walk by using +`get_revision()` repeatedly. Add the listed variable declarations at the top and +the walk loop below the `prepare_revision_walk()` call within your +`walken_commit_walk()`: + +---- +static void walken_commit_walk(struct rev_info *rev) +{ + struct commit *commit; + struct strbuf prettybuf = STRBUF_INIT; + + ... + + while ((commit = get_revision(rev))) { + strbuf_reset(&prettybuf); + pp_commit_easy(CMIT_FMT_ONELINE, commit, &prettybuf); + puts(prettybuf.buf); + } + strbuf_release(&prettybuf); +} +---- + +NOTE: `puts()` prints a `char*` to `stdout`. Since this is the part of the +command we expect to be machine-parsed, we're sending it directly to stdout. + +Give it a shot. + +---- +$ make +$ ./bin-wrappers/git walken +---- + +You should see all of the subject lines of all the commits in +your tree's history, in order, ending with the initial commit, "Initial revision +of "git", the information manager from hell". Congratulations! You've written +your first revision walk. You can play with printing some additional fields +from each commit if you're curious; have a look at the functions available in +`commit.h`. + +=== Adding a Filter + +Next, let's try to filter the commits we see based on their author. This is +equivalent to running `git log --author=<pattern>`. We can add a filter by +modifying `rev_info.grep_filter`, which is a `struct grep_opt`. + +First some setup. Add `init_grep_defaults()` to `init_walken_defaults()` and add +`grep_config()` to `git_walken_config()`: + +---- +static void init_walken_defaults(void) +{ + init_grep_defaults(the_repository); +} + +... + +static int git_walken_config(const char *var, const char *value, void *cb) +{ + grep_config(var, value, cb); + return git_default_config(var, value, cb); +} +---- + +Next, we can modify the `grep_filter`. This is done with convenience functions +found in `grep.h`. For fun, we're filtering to only commits from folks using a +`gmail.com` email address - a not-very-precise guess at who may be working on +Git as a hobby. Since we're checking the author, which is a specific line in the +header, we'll use the `append_header_grep_pattern()` helper. We can use +the `enum grep_header_field` to indicate which part of the commit header we want +to search. + +In `final_rev_info_setup()`, add your filter line: + +---- +static void final_rev_info_setup(int argc, const char **argv, + const char *prefix, struct rev_info *rev) +{ + ... + + append_header_grep_pattern(&rev->grep_filter, GREP_HEADER_AUTHOR, + "gmail"); + compile_grep_patterns(&rev->grep_filter); + + ... +} +---- + +`append_header_grep_pattern()` adds your new "gmail" pattern to `rev_info`, but +it won't work unless we compile it with `compile_grep_patterns()`. + +NOTE: If you are using `setup_revisions()` (for example, if you are passing a +`setup_revision_opt` instead of using `add_head_to_pending()`), you don't need +to call `compile_grep_patterns()` because `setup_revisions()` calls it for you. + +NOTE: We could add the same filter via the `append_grep_pattern()` helper if we +wanted to, but `append_header_grep_pattern()` adds the `enum grep_context` and +`enum grep_pat_token` for us. + +=== Changing the Order + +There are a few ways that we can change the order of the commits during a +revision walk. Firstly, we can use the `enum rev_sort_order` to choose from some +typical orderings. + +`topo_order` is the same as `git log --topo-order`: we avoid showing a parent +before all of its children have been shown, and we avoid mixing commits which +are in different lines of history. (`git help log`'s section on `--topo-order` +has a very nice diagram to illustrate this.) + +Let's see what happens when we run with `REV_SORT_BY_COMMIT_DATE` as opposed to +`REV_SORT_BY_AUTHOR_DATE`. Add the following: + +---- +static void final_rev_info_setup(int argc, const char **argv, + const char *prefix, struct rev_info *rev) +{ + ... + + rev->topo_order = 1; + rev->sort_order = REV_SORT_BY_COMMIT_DATE; + + ... +} +---- + +Let's output this into a file so we can easily diff it with the walk sorted by +author date. + +---- +$ make +$ ./bin-wrappers/git walken > commit-date.txt +---- + +Then, let's sort by author date and run it again. + +---- +static void final_rev_info_setup(int argc, const char **argv, + const char *prefix, struct rev_info *rev) +{ + ... + + rev->topo_order = 1; + rev->sort_order = REV_SORT_BY_AUTHOR_DATE; + + ... +} +---- + +---- +$ make +$ ./bin-wrappers/git walken > author-date.txt +---- + +Finally, compare the two. This is a little less helpful without object names or +dates, but hopefully we get the idea. + +---- +$ diff -u commit-date.txt author-date.txt +---- + +This display indicates that commits can be reordered after they're written, for +example with `git rebase`. + +Let's try one more reordering of commits. `rev_info` exposes a `reverse` flag. +Set that flag somewhere inside of `final_rev_info_setup()`: + +---- +static void final_rev_info_setup(int argc, const char **argv, const char *prefix, + struct rev_info *rev) +{ + ... + + rev->reverse = 1; + + ... +} +---- + +Run your walk again and note the difference in order. (If you remove the grep +pattern, you should see the last commit this call gives you as your current +HEAD.) + +== Basic Object Walk + +So far we've been walking only commits. But Git has more types of objects than +that! Let's see if we can walk _all_ objects, and find out some information +about each one. + +We can base our work on an example. `git pack-objects` prepares all kinds of +objects for packing into a bitmap or packfile. The work we are interested in +resides in `builtins/pack-objects.c:get_object_list()`; examination of that +function shows that the all-object walk is being performed by +`traverse_commit_list()` or `traverse_commit_list_filtered()`. Those two +functions reside in `list-objects.c`; examining the source shows that, despite +the name, these functions traverse all kinds of objects. Let's have a look at +the arguments to `traverse_commit_list_filtered()`, which are a superset of the +arguments to the unfiltered version. + +- `struct list_objects_filter_options *filter_options`: This is a struct which + stores a filter-spec as outlined in `Documentation/rev-list-options.txt`. +- `struct rev_info *revs`: This is the `rev_info` used for the walk. +- `show_commit_fn show_commit`: A callback which will be used to handle each + individual commit object. +- `show_object_fn show_object`: A callback which will be used to handle each + non-commit object (so each blob, tree, or tag). +- `void *show_data`: A context buffer which is passed in turn to `show_commit` + and `show_object`. +- `struct oidset *omitted`: A linked-list of object IDs which the provided + filter caused to be omitted. + +It looks like this `traverse_commit_list_filtered()` uses callbacks we provide +instead of needing us to call it repeatedly ourselves. Cool! Let's add the +callbacks first. + +For the sake of this tutorial, we'll simply keep track of how many of each kind +of object we find. At file scope in `builtin/walken.c` add the following +tracking variables: + +---- +static int commit_count; +static int tag_count; +static int blob_count; +static int tree_count; +---- + +Commits are handled by a different callback than other objects; let's do that +one first: + +---- +static void walken_show_commit(struct commit *cmt, void *buf) +{ + commit_count++; +} +---- + +The `cmt` argument is fairly self-explanatory. But it's worth mentioning that +the `buf` argument is actually the context buffer that we can provide to the +traversal calls - `show_data`, which we mentioned a moment ago. + +Since we have the `struct commit` object, we can look at all the same parts that +we looked at in our earlier commit-only walk. For the sake of this tutorial, +though, we'll just increment the commit counter and move on. + +The callback for non-commits is a little different, as we'll need to check +which kind of object we're dealing with: + +---- +static void walken_show_object(struct object *obj, const char *str, void *buf) +{ + switch (obj->type) { + case OBJ_TREE: + tree_count++; + break; + case OBJ_BLOB: + blob_count++; + break; + case OBJ_TAG: + tag_count++; + break; + case OBJ_COMMIT: + BUG("unexpected commit object in walken_show_object\n"); + default: + BUG("unexpected object type %s in walken_show_object\n", + type_name(obj->type)); + } +} +---- + +Again, `obj` is fairly self-explanatory, and we can guess that `buf` is the same +context pointer that `walken_show_commit()` receives: the `show_data` argument +to `traverse_commit_list()` and `traverse_commit_list_filtered()`. Finally, +`str` contains the name of the object, which ends up being something like +`foo.txt` (blob), `bar/baz` (tree), or `v1.2.3` (tag). + +To help assure us that we aren't double-counting commits, we'll include some +complaining if a commit object is routed through our non-commit callback; we'll +also complain if we see an invalid object type. Since those two cases should be +unreachable, and would only change in the event of a semantic change to the Git +codebase, we complain by using `BUG()` - which is a signal to a developer that +the change they made caused unintended consequences, and the rest of the +codebase needs to be updated to understand that change. `BUG()` is not intended +to be seen by the public, so it is not localized. + +Our main object walk implementation is substantially different from our commit +walk implementation, so let's make a new function to perform the object walk. We +can perform setup which is applicable to all objects here, too, to keep separate +from setup which is applicable to commit-only walks. + +We'll start by enabling all types of objects in the `struct rev_info`. We'll +also turn on `tree_blobs_in_commit_order`, which means that we will walk a +commit's tree and everything it points to immediately after we find each commit, +as opposed to waiting for the end and walking through all trees after the commit +history has been discovered. With the appropriate settings configured, we are +ready to call `prepare_revision_walk()`. + +---- +static void walken_object_walk(struct rev_info *rev) +{ + rev->tree_objects = 1; + rev->blob_objects = 1; + rev->tag_objects = 1; + rev->tree_blobs_in_commit_order = 1; + + if (prepare_revision_walk(rev)) + die(_("revision walk setup failed")); + + commit_count = 0; + tag_count = 0; + blob_count = 0; + tree_count = 0; +---- + +Let's start by calling just the unfiltered walk and reporting our counts. +Complete your implementation of `walken_object_walk()`: + +---- + traverse_commit_list(rev, walken_show_commit, walken_show_object, NULL); + + printf("commits %d\nblobs %d\ntags %d\ntrees %d\n", commit_count, + blob_count, tag_count, tree_count); +} +---- + +NOTE: This output is intended to be machine-parsed. Therefore, we are not +sending it to `trace_printf()`, and we are not localizing it - we need scripts +to be able to count on the formatting to be exactly the way it is shown here. +If we were intending this output to be read by humans, we would need to localize +it with `_()`. + +Finally, we'll ask `cmd_walken()` to use the object walk instead. Discussing +command line options is out of scope for this tutorial, so we'll just hardcode +a branch we can change at compile time. Where you call `final_rev_info_setup()` +and `walken_commit_walk()`, instead branch like so: + +---- + if (1) { + add_head_to_pending(&rev); + walken_object_walk(&rev); + } else { + final_rev_info_setup(argc, argv, prefix, &rev); + walken_commit_walk(&rev); + } +---- + +NOTE: For simplicity, we've avoided all the filters and sorts we applied in +`final_rev_info_setup()` and simply added `HEAD` to our pending queue. If you +want, you can certainly use the filters we added before by moving +`final_rev_info_setup()` out of the conditional and removing the call to +`add_head_to_pending()`. + +Now we can try to run our command! It should take noticeably longer than the +commit walk, but an examination of the output will give you an idea why. Your +output should look similar to this example, but with different counts: + +---- +Object walk completed. Found 55733 commits, 100274 blobs, 0 tags, and 104210 trees. +---- + +This makes sense. We have more trees than commits because the Git project has +lots of subdirectories which can change, plus at least one tree per commit. We +have no tags because we started on a commit (`HEAD`) and while tags can point to +commits, commits can't point to tags. + +NOTE: You will have different counts when you run this yourself! The number of +objects grows along with the Git project. + +=== Adding a Filter + +There are a handful of filters that we can apply to the object walk laid out in +`Documentation/rev-list-options.txt`. These filters are typically useful for +operations such as creating packfiles or performing a partial clone. They are +defined in `list-objects-filter-options.h`. For the purposes of this tutorial we +will use the "tree:1" filter, which causes the walk to omit all trees and blobs +which are not directly referenced by commits reachable from the commit in +`pending` when the walk begins. (`pending` is the list of objects which need to +be traversed during a walk; you can imagine a breadth-first tree traversal to +help understand. In our case, that means we omit trees and blobs not directly +referenced by `HEAD` or `HEAD`'s history, because we begin the walk with only +`HEAD` in the `pending` list.) + +First, we'll need to `#include "list-objects-filter-options.h`" and set up the +`struct list_objects_filter_options` at the top of the function. + +---- +static void walken_object_walk(struct rev_info *rev) +{ + struct list_objects_filter_options filter_options = {}; + + ... +---- + +For now, we are not going to track the omitted objects, so we'll replace those +parameters with `NULL`. For the sake of simplicity, we'll add a simple +build-time branch to use our filter or not. Replace the line calling +`traverse_commit_list()` with the following, which will remind us which kind of +walk we've just performed: + +---- + if (0) { + /* Unfiltered: */ + trace_printf(_("Unfiltered object walk.\n")); + traverse_commit_list(rev, walken_show_commit, + walken_show_object, NULL); + } else { + trace_printf( + _("Filtered object walk with filterspec 'tree:1'.\n")); + parse_list_objects_filter(&filter_options, "tree:1"); + + traverse_commit_list_filtered(&filter_options, rev, + walken_show_commit, walken_show_object, NULL, NULL); + } +---- + +`struct list_objects_filter_options` is usually built directly from a command +line argument, so the module provides an easy way to build one from a string. +Even though we aren't taking user input right now, we can still build one with +a hardcoded string using `parse_list_objects_filter()`. + +With the filter spec "tree:1", we are expecting to see _only_ the root tree for +each commit; therefore, the tree object count should be less than or equal to +the number of commits. (For an example of why that's true: `git commit --revert` +points to the same tree object as its grandparent.) + +=== Counting Omitted Objects + +We also have the capability to enumerate all objects which were omitted by a +filter, like with `git log --filter=<spec> --filter-print-omitted`. Asking +`traverse_commit_list_filtered()` to populate the `omitted` list means that our +object walk does not perform any better than an unfiltered object walk; all +reachable objects are walked in order to populate the list. + +First, add the `struct oidset` and related items we will use to iterate it: + +---- +static void walken_object_walk( + ... + + struct oidset omitted; + struct oidset_iter oit; + struct object_id *oid = NULL; + int omitted_count = 0; + oidset_init(&omitted, 0); + + ... +---- + +Modify the call to `traverse_commit_list_filtered()` to include your `omitted` +object: + +---- + ... + + traverse_commit_list_filtered(&filter_options, rev, + walken_show_commit, walken_show_object, NULL, &omitted); + + ... +---- + +Then, after your traversal, the `oidset` traversal is pretty straightforward. +Count all the objects within and modify the print statement: + +---- + /* Count the omitted objects. */ + oidset_iter_init(&omitted, &oit); + + while ((oid = oidset_iter_next(&oit))) + omitted_count++; + + printf("commits %d\nblobs %d\ntags %d\ntrees%d\nomitted %d\n", + commit_count, blob_count, tag_count, tree_count, omitted_count); +---- + +By running your walk with and without the filter, you should find that the total +object count in each case is identical. You can also time each invocation of +the `walken` subcommand, with and without `omitted` being passed in, to confirm +to yourself the runtime impact of tracking all omitted objects. + +=== Changing the Order + +Finally, let's demonstrate that you can also reorder walks of all objects, not +just walks of commits. First, we'll make our handlers chattier - modify +`walken_show_commit()` and `walken_show_object()` to print the object as they +go: + +---- +static void walken_show_commit(struct commit *cmt, void *buf) +{ + trace_printf("commit: %s\n", oid_to_hex(&cmt->object.oid)); + commit_count++; +} + +static void walken_show_object(struct object *obj, const char *str, void *buf) +{ + trace_printf("%s: %s\n", type_name(obj->type), oid_to_hex(&obj->oid)); + + ... +} +---- + +NOTE: Since we will be examining this output directly as humans, we'll use +`trace_printf()` here. Additionally, since this change introduces a significant +number of printed lines, using `trace_printf()` will allow us to easily silence +those lines without having to recompile. + +(Leave the counter increment logic in place.) + +With only that change, run again (but save yourself some scrollback): + +---- +$ GIT_TRACE=1 ./bin-wrappers/git walken | head -n 10 +---- + +Take a look at the top commit with `git show` and the object ID you printed; it +should be the same as the output of `git show HEAD`. + +Next, let's change a setting on our `struct rev_info` within +`walken_object_walk()`. Find where you're changing the other settings on `rev`, +such as `rev->tree_objects` and `rev->tree_blobs_in_commit_order`, and add the +`reverse` setting at the bottom: + +---- + ... + + rev->tree_objects = 1; + rev->blob_objects = 1; + rev->tag_objects = 1; + rev->tree_blobs_in_commit_order = 1; + rev->reverse = 1; + + ... +---- + +Now, run again, but this time, let's grab the last handful of objects instead +of the first handful: + +---- +$ make +$ GIT_TRACE=1 ./bin-wrappers git walken | tail -n 10 +---- + +The last commit object given should have the same OID as the one we saw at the +top before, and running `git show <oid>` with that OID should give you again +the same results as `git show HEAD`. Furthermore, if you run and examine the +first ten lines again (with `head` instead of `tail` like we did before applying +the `reverse` setting), you should see that now the first commit printed is the +initial commit, `e83c5163`. + +== Wrapping Up + +Let's review.

help log" has been enhanced by sharing more material from the + documentation for the underlying "git rev-list" command. + + * "git for-each-ref --format=<>" learned %(contents:size). + + * "git merge" learned to selectively omit " into <branch>" at the end + of the title of default merge message with merge.suppressDest + configuration. + + * The component to respond to "git fetch" request is made more + configurable to selectively allow or reject object filtering + specification used for partial cloning. + + * Stop when "sendmail.*" configuration variables are defined, which + could be a mistaken attempt to define "sendemail.*" variables. + + * The existing backends for "git mergetool" based on variants of vim + have been refactored and then support for "nvim" has been added. + + * "git bisect" learns the "--first-parent" option to find the first + breakage along the first-parent chain. + + * "git log --first-parent -p" showed patches only for single-parent + commits on the first-parent chain; the "--first-parent" option has + been made to imply "-m". Use "--no-diff-merges" to restore the + previous behaviour to omit patches for merge commits. + + * The commit labels used to explain each side of conflicted hunks + placed by the sequencer machinery have been made more readable by + humans. + + * The "--batch-size" option of "git multi-pack-index repack" command + is now used to specify that very small packfiles are collected into + one until the total size roughly exceeds it. + + * The recent addition of SHA-256 support is marked as experimental in + the documentation. + + * "git fetch" learned --no-write-fetch-head option to avoid writing + the FETCH_HEAD file. + + * Command line completion (in contrib/) usually omits redundant, + deprecated and/or dangerous options from its output; it learned to + optionally include all of them. + + * The output from the "diff" family of the commands had abbreviated + object names of blobs involved in the patch, but its length was not + affected by the --abbrev option. Now it is. + + * "git worktree" gained a "repair" subcommand to help users recover + after moving the worktrees or repository manually without telling + Git. Also, "git init --separate-git-dir" no longer corrupts + administrative data related to linked worktrees. + + * The "--format=" option to the "for-each-ref" command and friends + learned a few more tricks, e.g. the ":short" suffix that applies to + "objectname" now also can be used for "parent", "tree", etc. + + * "git worktree add" learns that the "-d" is a synonym to "--detach" + option to create a new worktree without being on a branch. + + * "format-patch --range-diff=<prev> <origin>..HEAD" has been taught + not to ignore <origin> when <prev> is a single version. + + * "add -p" now allows editing paths that were only added in intent. + + * The 'meld' backend of the "git mergetool" learned to give the + underlying 'meld' the '--auto-merge' option, which would help + reduce the amount of text that requires manual merging. + + * "git for-each-ref" and friends that list refs used to allow only + one --merged or --no-merged to filter them; they learned to take + combination of both kind of filtering. + + * "git maintenance", a "git gc"'s big brother, has been introduced to + take care of more repository maintenance tasks, not limited to the + object database cleaning. + + * "git receive-pack" that accepts requests by "git push" learned to + outsource most of the ref updates to the new "proc-receive" hook. + + * "git push" that wants to be atomic and wants to send push + certificate learned not to prepare and sign the push certificate + when it fails the local check (hence due to atomicity it is known + that no certificate is needed). + + * "git commit-graph write" learned to limit the number of bloom + filters that are computed from scratch with the --max-new-filters + option. + + * The transport protocol v2 has become the default again. + + * The installation procedure learned to optionally omit "git-foo" + executable files for each 'foo' built-in subcommand, which are only + required by old timers that still rely on the age old promise that + prepending "git --exec-path" output to PATH early in their script + will keep the "git-foo" calls they wrote working. + + * The command line completion (in contrib/) learned that "git restore + -s <TAB>" is often followed by a refname. + + * "git shortlog" has been taught to group commits by the contents of + the trailer lines, like "Reviewed-by:", "Coauthored-by:", etc. + + * "git archive" learns the "--add-file" option to include untracked + files into a snapshot from a tree-ish. + + * "git fetch" and "git push" support negative refspecs. + + * "git format-patch" learns to take "whenAble" as a possible value + for the format.useAutoBase configuration variable to become no-op + when the automatically computed base does not make sense. + + * Credential helpers are now allowed to terminate lines with CRLF + line ending, as well as LF line ending. + + +Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc. + + * The changed-path Bloom filter is improved using ideas from an + independent implementation. + + * Updates to the changed-paths bloom filter. + + * The test framework has been updated so that most tests will run + with predictable (artificial) timestamps. + + * Preliminary clean-up of the refs API in preparation for adding a + new refs backend "reftable". + + * Dev support to limit the use of test_must_fail to only git commands. + + * While packing many objects in a repository with a promissor remote, + lazily fetching missing objects from the promissor remote one by + one may be inefficient---the code now attempts to fetch all the + missing objects in batch (obviously this won't work for a lazy + clone that lazily fetches tree objects as you cannot even enumerate + what blobs are missing until you learn which trees are missing). + + * The pretend-object mechanism checks if the given object already + exists in the object store before deciding to keep the data + in-core, but the check would have triggered lazy fetching of such + an object from a promissor remote. + + * The argv_array API is useful for not just managing argv but any + "vector" (NULL-terminated array) of strings, and has seen adoption + to a certain degree. It has been renamed to "strvec" to reduce the + barrier to adoption. + + * The final leg of SHA-256 transition plus doc updates. Note that + there is no interoperability between SHA-1 and SHA-256 + repositories yet. + + * CMake support to build with MSVC for Windows bypassing the Makefile. + + * A new helper function has_object() has been introduced to make it + easier to mark object existence checks that do and don't want to + trigger lazy fetches, and a few such checks are converted using it. + + * A no-op replacement function implemented as a C preprocessor macro + does not perform as good a job as one implemented as a "static + inline" function in catching errors in parameters; replace the + former with the latter in <git-compat-util.h> header. + + * Test framework update. + (merge d572f52a64 es/test-cmp-typocatcher later to maint). + + * Updates to "git merge" tests, in preparation for a new merge + strategy backend. + + * midx and commit-graph files now use the byte defined in their file + format specification for identifying the hash function used for + object names. + + * The FETCH_HEAD is now always read from the filesystem regardless of + the ref backend in use, as its format is much richer than the + normal refs, and written directly by "git fetch" as a plain file.. + + * An unused binary has been discarded, and and a bunch of commands + have been turned into into built-in. + + * A handful of places in in-tree code still relied on being able to + execute the git subcommands, especially built-ins, in "git-foo" + form, which have been corrected. + + * When a packfile is removed by "git repack", multi-pack-index gets + cleared; the code was taught to do so less aggressively by first + checking if the midx actually refers to a pack that no longer + exists. + + * Internal API clean-up to handle two options "diff-index" and "log" + have, which happen to share the same short form, more sensibly. + + * The "add -i/-p" machinery has been written in C but it is not used + by default yet. It is made default to those who are participating + in feature.experimental experiment. + + * Allow maintainers to tweak $(TAR) invocations done while making + distribution tarballs. + + * "git index-pack" learned to resolve deltified objects with greater + parallelism. + + * "diff-highlight" (in contrib/) had a logic to flush its output upon + seeing a blank line but the way it detected a blank line was broken. + + * The logic to skip testing on the tagged commit and the tag itself + was not quite consistent which led to failure of Windows test + tasks. It has been revamped to consistently skip revisions that + have already been tested, based on the tree object of the revision. + + +Fixes since v2.28 +----------------- + + * The "mediawiki" remote backend which lives in contrib/mw-to-git/ + and is not built with git by default, had an RCE bug allowing a + malicious MediaWiki server operator to inject arbitrary commands + for execution by a cloning client. This has been fixed. + + The bug was discovered and reported by Joern Schneeweisz of GitLab + to the git-security mailing list. Its practical impact due to the + obscurity of git-remote-mediawiki was deemed small enough to forgo + a dedicated security release. + + * "git clone --separate-git-dir=$elsewhere" used to stomp on the + contents of the existing directory $elsewhere, which has been + taught to fail when $elsewhere is not an empty directory. + (merge dfaa209a79 bw/fail-cloning-into-non-empty later to maint). + + * With the base fix to 2.27 regresion, any new extensions in a v0 + repository would still be silently honored, which is not quite + right. Instead, complain and die loudly. + (merge ec91ffca04 jk/reject-newer-extensions-in-v0 later to maint). + + * Fetching from a lazily cloned repository resulted at the server + side in attempts to lazy fetch objects that the client side has, + many of which will not be available from the third-party anyway. + (merge 77aa0941ce jt/avoid-lazy-fetching-upon-have-check later to maint). + + * Fix to an ancient bug caused by an over-eager attempt for + optimization. + (merge a98f7fb366 rs/add-index-entry-optim-fix later to maint). + + * Pushing a ref whose name contains non-ASCII character with the + "--force-with-lease" option did not work over smart HTTP protocol, + which has been corrected. + (merge cd85b447bf bc/push-cas-cquoted-refname later to maint). + + * "git mv src dst", when src is an unmerged path, errored out + correctly but with an incorrect error message to claim that src is + not tracked, which has been clarified. + (merge 9b906af657 ct/mv-unmerged-path-error later to maint). + + * Fix to a regression introduced during 2.27 cycle. + (merge cada7308ad en/fill-directory-exponential later to maint). + + * Command line completion (in contrib/) update. + (merge 688b87c81b mp/complete-show-color-moved later to maint). + + * All "mergy" operations that internally use the merge-recursive + machinery should honor the merge.renormalize configuration, but + many of them didn't. + + * Doc cleanup around "worktree". + (merge dc9c144be5 es/worktree-doc-cleanups later to maint). + + * The "git blame --first-parent" option was not documented, but now + it is. + (merge 11bc12ae1e rp/blame-first-parent-doc later to maint). + + * The logic to find the ref transaction hook script attempted to + cache the path to the found hook without realizing that it needed + to keep a copied value, as the API it used returned a transitory + buffer space. This has been corrected. + (merge 09b2aa30c9 ps/ref-transaction-hook later to maint). + + * Recent versions of "git diff-files" shows a diff between the index + and the working tree for "intent-to-add" paths as a "new file" + patch; "git apply --cached" should be able to take "git diff-files" + and should act as an equivalent to "git add" for the path, but the + command failed to do so for such a path. + (merge 4c025c667e rp/apply-cached-with-i-t-a later to maint). + + * "git diff [<tree-ish>] $path" for a $path that is marked with i-t-a + bit was not showing the mode bits from the working tree. + (merge cb0dd22b82 rp/ita-diff-modefix later to maint). + + * Ring buffer with size 4 used for bin-hex translation resulted in a + wrong object name in the sequencer's todo output, which has been + corrected. + (merge 5da69c0dac ak/sequencer-fix-find-uniq-abbrev later to maint). + + * When given more than one target line ranges, "git blame -La,b + -Lc,d" was over-eager to coalesce groups of original lines and + showed incorrect results, which has been corrected. + (merge c2ebaa27d6 jk/blame-coalesce-fix later to maint). + + * The regexp to identify the function boundary for FORTRAN programs + has been updated. + (merge 75c3b6b2e8 pb/userdiff-fortran-update later to maint). + + * A few end-user facing messages have been updated to be + hash-algorithm agnostic. + (merge 4279000d3e jc/object-names-are-not-sha-1 later to maint). + + * "unlink" emulation on MinGW has been optimized. + (merge 680e0b4524 jh/mingw-unlink later to maint). + + * The purpose of "git init --separate-git-dir" is to initialize a + new project with the repository separate from the working tree, + or, in the case of an existing project, to move the repository + (the .git/ directory) out of the working tree. It does not make + sense to use --separate-git-dir with a bare repository for which + there is no working tree, so disallow its use with bare + repositories. + (merge ccf236a23a es/init-no-separate-git-dir-in-bare later to maint). + + * "ls-files -o" mishandled the top-level directory of another git + working tree that hangs in the current git working tree. + (merge ab282aa548 en/dir-nonbare-embedded later to maint). + + * Fix some incorrect UNLEAK() annotations. + (merge 3e19816dc0 jk/unleak-fixes later to maint). + + * Use more buffered I/O where we used to call many small write(2)s. + (merge a698d67b08 rs/more-buffered-io later to maint). + + * The patch-id computation did not ignore the "incomplete last line" + marker like whitespaces. + (merge 82a62015a7 rs/patch-id-with-incomplete-line later to maint). + + * Updates into a lazy/partial clone with a submodule did not work + well with transfer.fsckobjects set. + + * The parser for "git for-each-ref --format=..." was too loose when + parsing the "%(trailers...)" atom, and forgot that "trailers" and + "trailers:<modifiers>" are the only two allowed forms, which has + been corrected. + (merge 2c22e102f8 hv/ref-filter-trailers-atom-parsing-fix later to maint). + + * Long ago, we decided to use 3 threads by default when running the + index-pack task in parallel, which has been adjusted a bit upwards. + (merge fbff95b67f jk/index-pack-w-more-threads later to maint). + + * "git restore/checkout --no-overlay" with wildcarded pathspec + mistakenly removed matching paths in subdirectories, which has been + corrected. + (merge bfda204ade rs/checkout-no-overlay-pathspec-fix later to maint). + + * The description of --cached/--index options in "git apply --help" + has been updated. + (merge d064702be3 rp/apply-cached-doc later to maint). + + * Feeding "$ZERO_OID" to "git log --ignore-missing --stdin", and + running "git log --ignore-missing $ZERO_OID" fell back to start + digging from HEAD; it has been corrected to become a no-op, like + "git log --tags=no-tag-matches-this-pattern" does. + (merge 04a0e98515 jk/rev-input-given-fix later to maint). + + * Various callers of run_command API have been modernized. + (merge afbdba391e jc/run-command-use-embedded-args later to maint). + + * List of options offered and accepted by "git add -i/-p" were + inconsistent, which have been corrected. + (merge ce910287e7 pw/add-p-allowed-options-fix later to maint). + + * "git diff --stat -w" showed 0-line changes for paths whose changes + were only whitespaces, which was not intuitive.

Even though it inherently is impossible + to give a correct answer because the reflog entries lose some + information (e.g. "@{u}" does not record what branch the user was + on hence which branch 'the upstream' needs to be computed, and even + if the record were available, the relationship between branches may + have changed), at least hide the error and allow "status" to show its + output. + + * "git status --short" quoted a path with SP in it when tracked, but + not those that are untracked, ignored or unmerged. They are all + shown quoted consistently. + + * "git diff/show" on a change that involves a submodule used to read + the information on commits in the submodule from a wrong repository + and gave a wrong information when the commit-graph is involved. + (merge 85a1ec2c32 mf/submodule-summary-with-correct-repository later to maint). + + * Unlike "git config --local", "git config --worktree" did not fail + early and cleanly when started outside a git repository. + (merge 378fe5fc3d mt/config-fail-nongit-early later to maint). + + * There is a logic to estimate how many objects are in the + repository, which is meant to run once per process invocation, but + it ran every time the estimated value was requested. + (merge 67bb65de5d jk/dont-count-existing-objects-twice later to maint). + + * "git remote set-head" that failed still said something that hints + the operation went through, which was misleading. + (merge 5a07c6c3c2 cs/don-t-pretend-a-failed-remote-set-head-succeeded later to maint). + + * "git fetch --all --ipv4/--ipv6" forgot to pass the protocol options + to instances of the "git fetch" that talk to individual remotes, + which has been corrected. + (merge 4e735c1326 ar/fetch-ipversion-in-all later to maint). + + * The "unshelve" subcommand of "git p4" incorrectly used commit^N + where it meant to say commit~N to name the Nth generation + ancestor, which has been corrected. + (merge 0acbf5997f ld/p4-unshelve-fix later to maint). + + * "git clone" that clones from SHA-1 repository, while + GIT_DEFAULT_HASH set to use SHA-256 already, resulted in an + unusable repository that half-claims to be SHA-256 repository + with SHA-1 objects and refs. This has been corrected. + + * Adjust sample hooks for hash algorithm other than SHA-1. + (merge d8d3d632f4 dl/zero-oid-in-hooks later to maint). + + * "git range-diff" showed incorrect diffstat, which has been + corrected. + + * Earlier we taught "git pull" to warn when the user does not say the + histories need to be merged, rebased or accepts only fast- + forwarding, but the warning triggered for those who have set the + pull.ff configuration variable. + (merge 54200cef86 ah/pull later to maint). + + * Compilation fix around type punning. + (merge 176380fd11 jk/drop-unaligned-loads later to maint). + + * "git blame --ignore-rev/--ignore-revs-file" failed to validate + their input are valid revision, and failed to take into account + that the user may want

If your repo has + `10^5` files and `10^5` commits, but each commit only modifies five + files, then git-filter-branch will make you do `10^10` modifications, + despite only having (at most) `5*10^5` unique blobs. + +* If you try and cheat and try to make git-filter-branch only work on + files modified in a commit, then two things happen + + ** you run into problems with deletions whenever the user is simply + trying to rename files (because attempting to delete files that + don't exist looks like a no-op; it takes some chicanery to remap + deletes across file renames when the renames happen via arbitrary + user-provided shell) + + ** even if you succeed at the map-deletes-for-renames chicanery, you + still technically violate backward compatibility because users + are allowed to filter files in ways that depend upon topology of + commits instead of filtering solely based on file contents or + names (though this has not been observed in the wild). + +* Even if you don't need to edit files but only want to e.g. rename or + remove some and thus can avoid checking out each file (i.e. you can + use --index-filter), you still are passing shell snippets for your + filters. This means that for every commit, you have to have a + prepared git repo where those filters can be run. That's a + significant setup. + +* Further, several additional files are created or updated per commit + by git-filter-branch. Some of these are for supporting the + convenience functions provided by git-filter-branch (such as map()), + while others are for keeping track of internal state (but could have + also been accessed by user filters; one of git-filter-branch's + regression tests does so). This essentially amounts to using the + filesystem as an IPC mechanism between git-filter-branch and the + user-provided filters. Disks tend to be a slow IPC mechanism, and + writing these files also effectively represents a forced + synchronization point between separate processes that we hit with + every commit. + +* The user-provided shell commands will likely involve a pipeline of + commands, resulting in the creation of many processes per commit. + Creating and running another process takes a widely varying amount + of time between operating systems, but on any platform it is very + slow relative to invoking a function. + +* git-filter-branch itself is written in shell, which is kind of slow. + This is the one performance issue that could be backward-compatibly + fixed, but compared to the above problems that are intrinsic to the + design of git-filter-branch, the language of the tool itself is a + relatively minor issue. + + ** Side note: Unfortunately, people tend to fixate on the + written-in-shell aspect and periodically ask if git-filter-branch + could be rewritten in another language to fix the performance + issues. Not only does that ignore the bigger intrinsic problems + with the design, it'd help less than you'd expect: if + git-filter-branch itself were not shell, then the convenience + functions (map(), skip_commit(), etc) and the `--setup` argument + could no longer be executed once at the beginning of the program + but would instead need to be prepended to every user filter (and + thus re-executed with every commit). + +The https://github.com/newren/git-filter-repo/[git filter-repo] tool is +an alternative to git-filter-branch which does not suffer from these +performance problems or the safety problems (mentioned below).

While +filter-lamely suffers from all the same safety issues as +git-filter-branch, it at least ameliorates the performance issues a +little. + +[[SAFETY]] +SAFETY +------ + +git-filter-branch is riddled with gotchas resulting in various ways to +easily corrupt repos or end up with a mess worse than what you started +with: + +* Someone can have a set of "working and tested filters" which they + document or provide to a coworker, who then runs them on a different + OS where the same commands are not working/tested (some examples in + the git-filter-branch manpage are also affected by this). + BSD vs. GNU userland differences can really bite. If lucky, error + messages are spewed. But just as likely, the commands either don't + do the filtering requested, or silently corrupt by making some + unwanted change. The unwanted change may only affect a few commits, + so it's not necessarily obvious either. (The fact that problems + won't necessarily be obvious means they are likely to go unnoticed + until the rewritten history is in use for quite a while, at which + point it's really hard to justify another flag-day for another + rewrite.) + +* Filenames with spaces are often mishandled by shell snippets since + they cause problems for shell pipelines. Not everyone is familiar + with find -print0, xargs -0, git-ls-files -z, etc. Even people who + are familiar with these may assume such flags are not relevant + because someone else renamed any such files in their repo back + before the person doing the filtering joined the project. And + often, even those familiar with handling arguments with spaces may + not do so just because they aren't in the mindset of thinking about + everything that could possibly go wrong. + +* Non-ascii filenames can be silently removed despite being in a + desired directory. Keeping only wanted paths is often done using + pipelines like `git ls-files | grep -v ^WANTED_DIR/ | xargs git rm`. + ls-files will only quote filenames if needed, so folks may not + notice that one of the files didn't match the regex (at least not + until it's much too late). Yes, someone who knows about + core.quotePath can avoid this (unless they have other special + characters like \t, \n, or "), and people who use ls-files -z with + something other than grep can avoid this, but that doesn't mean they + will. + +* Similarly, when moving files around, one can find that filenames + with non-ascii or special characters end up in a different + directory, one that includes a double quote character. (This is + technically the same issue as above with quoting, but perhaps an + interesting different way that it can and has manifested as a + problem.) + +* It's far too easy to accidentally mix up old and new history. It's + still possible with any tool, but git-filter-branch almost + invites it. If lucky, the only downside is users getting frustrated + that they don't know how to shrink their repo and remove the old + stuff. If unlucky, they merge old and new history and end up with + multiple "copies" of each commit, some of which have unwanted or + sensitive files and others which don't. This comes about in + multiple different ways: + + ** the default to only doing a partial history rewrite ('--all' is not + the default and few examples show it) + + ** the fact that there's no automatic post-run cleanup + + ** the fact that --tag-name-filter (when used to rename tags) doesn't + remove the old tags but just adds new ones with the new name + + ** the fact that little educational information is provided to inform + users of the ramifications of a rewrite and how to avoid mixing old + and new history. For example, this man page discusses how users + need to understand that they need to rebase their changes for all + their branches on top of new history (or delete and reclone), but + that's only one of multiple concerns to consider. See the + "DISCUSSION" section of the git filter-repo manual page for more + details. + +* Annotated tags can be accidentally converted to lightweight tags, + due to either of two issues: + + ** Someone can do a history rewrite, realize they messed up, restore + from the backups in refs/original/, and then redo their + git-filter-branch command. (The backup in refs/original/ is not a + real backup; it dereferences tags first.) + + ** Running git-filter-branch with either --tags or --all in your + <rev-list options>. In order to retain annotated tags as + annotated, you must use --tag-name-filter (and must not have + restored from refs/original/ in a previously botched rewrite). + +* Any commit messages that specify an encoding will become corrupted + by the rewrite; git-filter-branch ignores the encoding, takes the + original bytes, and feeds it to commit-tree without telling it the + proper encoding. (This happens whether or not --msg-filter is + used.) + +* Commit messages (even if they are all UTF-8) by default become + corrupted due to not being updated -- any references to other commit + hashes in commit messages will now refer to no-longer-extant + commits. + +* There are no facilities for helping users find what unwanted crud + they should delete, which means they are much more likely to have + incomplete or partial cleanups that sometimes result in confusion + and people wasting time trying to understand. (For example, folks + tend to just look for big files to delete instead of big directories + or extensions, and once they do so, then sometime later folks using + the new repository who are going through history will notice a build + artifact directory that has some files but not others, or a cache of + dependencies (node_modules or similar) which couldn't have ever been + functional since it's missing some files.) + +* If --prune-empty isn't specified, then the filtering process can + create hoards of confusing empty commits + +* If --prune-empty is specified, then intentionally placed empty + commits from before the filtering operation are also pruned instead + of just pruning commits that became empty due to filtering rules. + +* If --prune-empty is specified, sometimes empty commits are missed + and left around anyway (a somewhat rare bug, but it happens...) + +* A minor issue, but users who have a goal to update all names and + emails in a repository may be led to --env-filter which will only + update authors and committers, missing taggers. + +* If the user provides a --tag-name-filter that maps multiple tags to + the same name, no warning or error is provided; git-filter-branch + simply overwrites each tag in some undocumented pre-defined order + resulting in only one tag at the end. (A git-filter-branch + regression test requires this surprising behavior.) + +Also, the poor performance of git-filter-branch often leads to safety +issues: + +* Coming up with the correct shell snippet to do the filtering you + want is sometimes difficult unless you're just doing a trivial + modification such as deleting a couple files. Unfortunately, people + often learn if the snippet is right or wrong by trying it out, but + the rightness or wrongness can vary depending on special + circumstances (spaces in filenames, non-ascii filenames, funny + author names or emails, invalid timezones, presence of grafts or + replace objects, etc.), meaning they may have to wait a long time, + hit an error, then restart. The performance of git-filter-branch is + so bad that this cycle is painful, reducing the time available to + carefully re-check (to say nothing about what it does to the + patience of the person doing the rewrite even if they do technically + have more time available). This problem is extra compounded because + errors from broken filters may not be shown for a long time and/or + get lost in a sea of output. Even worse, broken filters often just + result in silent incorrect rewrites. + +* To top it all off, even when users finally find working commands, + they naturally want to share them.

(The apply +backend used to be known as the 'am' backend, but the name led to +confusion as it looks like a verb instead of a noun. Also, the merge +backend used to be known as the interactive backend, but it is now +used for non-interactive cases as well. Both were renamed based on +lower-level functionality that underpinned each.) There are some +subtle differences in how these two backends behave: Empty commits ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -The am backend drops any "empty" commits, regardless of whether the -commit started empty (had no changes relative to its parent to -start with) or ended empty (all changes were already applied -upstream in other commits). +The apply backend unfortunately drops intentionally empty commits, i.e. +commits that started empty, though these are rare in practice. It +also drops commits that become empty and has no option for controlling +this behavior. + +The merge backend keeps intentionally empty commits by default (though +with -i they are marked as empty in the todo list editor, or they can +be dropped automatically with --no-keep-empty). -The interactive backend drops commits by default that -started empty and halts if it hits a commit that ended up empty. -The `--keep-empty` option exists for the interactive backend to allow -it to keep commits that started empty. +Similar to the apply backend, by default the merge backend drops +commits that become empty unless -i/--interactive is specified (in +which case it stops and asks the user what to do). The merge backend +also has an --empty={drop,keep,ask} option for changing the behavior +of handling commits that become empty. Directory rename detection ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Directory rename heuristics are enabled in the merge and interactive -backends. Due to the lack of accurate tree information, directory -rename detection is disabled in the am backend. +Due to the lack of accurate tree information (arising from +constructing fake ancestors with the limited information available in +patches), directory rename detection is disabled in the apply backend. +Disabled directory rename detection means that if one side of history +renames a directory and the other adds new files to the old directory, +then the new files will be left behind in the old directory without +any warning at the time of rebasing that you may want to move these +files into the new directory. + +Directory rename detection works with the merge backend to provide you +warnings in such cases. + +Context +~~~~~~~ + +The apply backend works by creating a sequence of patches (by calling +`format-patch` internally), and then applying the patches in sequence +(calling `am` internally). Patches are composed of multiple hunks, +each with line numbers, a context region, and the actual changes. The +line numbers have to be taken with some fuzz, since the other side +will likely have inserted or deleted lines earlier in the file. The +context region is meant to help find how to adjust the line numbers in +order to apply the changes to the right lines. However, if multiple +areas of the code have the same surrounding lines of context, the +wrong one can be picked. There are real-world cases where this has +caused commits to be reapplied incorrectly with no conflicts reported. +Setting diff.context to a larger value may prevent such types of +problems, but increases the chance of spurious conflicts (since it +will require more lines of matching context to apply). + +The merge backend works with a full copy of each relevant file, +insulating it from these types of problems. + +Labelling of conflicts markers +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +When there are content conflicts, the merge machinery tries to +annotate each side's conflict markers with the commits where the +content came from. Since the apply backend drops the original +information about the rebased commits and their parents (and instead +generates new fake commits based off limited information in the +generated patches), those commits cannot be identified; instead it has +to fall back to a commit summary. Also, when merge.conflictStyle is +set to diff3, the apply backend will use "constructed merge base" to +label the content from the merge base, and thus provide no information +about the merge base commit whatsoever. + +The merge backend works with the full commits on both sides of history +and thus has no such limitations. + +Hooks +~~~~~ + +The apply backend has not traditionally called the post-commit hook, +while the merge backend has. Both have called the post-checkout hook, +though the merge backend has squelched its output. Further, both +backends only call the post-checkout hook with the starting point +commit of the rebase, not the intermediate commits nor the final +commit. In each case, the calling of these hooks was by accident of +implementation rather than by design (both backends were originally +implemented as shell scripts and happened to invoke other commands +like 'git checkout' or 'git commit' that would call the hooks). Both +backends should have the same behavior, though it is not entirely +clear which, if any, is correct. We will likely make rebase stop +calling either of these hooks in the future. + +Interruptability +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +The apply backend has safety problems with an ill-timed interrupt; if +the user presses Ctrl-C at the wrong time to try to abort the rebase, +the rebase can enter a state where it cannot be aborted with a +subsequent `git rebase --abort`. The merge backend does not appear to +suffer from the same shortcoming. (See +https://lore.kernel.org/git/20200207132152.GC2868@szeder.dev/ for +details.) + +Commit Rewording +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +When a conflict occurs while rebasing, rebase stops and asks the user +to resolve. Since the user may need to make notable changes while +resolving conflicts, after conflicts are resolved and the user has run +`git rebase --continue`, the rebase should open an editor and ask the +user to update the commit message. The merge backend does this, while +the apply backend blindly applies the original commit message. + +Miscellaneous differences +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +There are a few more behavioral differences that most folks would +probably consider inconsequential but which are mentioned for +completeness: + +* Reflog: The two backends will use different wording when describing + the changes made in the reflog, though both will make use of the + word "rebase". + +* Progress, informational, and error messages: The two backends + provide slightly different progress and informational messages. + Also, the apply backend writes error messages (such as "Your files + would be overwritten...") to stdout, while the merge backend writes + them to stderr. + +* State directories: The two backends keep their state in different + directories under .git/ include::merge-strategies.txt[] @@ -832,7 +1062,8 @@ Hard case: The changes are not the same.:: This happens if the 'subsystem' rebase had conflicts, or used `--interactive` to omit, edit, squash, or fixup commits; or if the upstream used one of `commit --amend`, `reset`, or - `filter-branch`. + a full history rewriting command like + https://github.com/newren/git-filter-repo[`filter-repo`].

In such + cases, it can make sense to run `git sparse-checkout reapply` later + after cleaning up affected paths (e.g. resolving conflicts, undoing + or committing changes, etc.). + +'disable':: + Disable the `core.sparseCheckout` config setting, and restore the + working directory to include all files. Leaves the sparse-checkout + file intact so a later 'git sparse-checkout init' command may + return the working directory to the same state. + +SPARSE CHECKOUT +--------------- + +"Sparse checkout" allows populating the working directory sparsely. +It uses the skip-worktree bit (see linkgit:git-update-index[1]) to tell +Git whether a file in the working directory is worth looking at. If +the skip-worktree bit is set, then the file is ignored in the working +directory. Git will not populate the contents of those files, which +makes a sparse checkout helpful when working in a repository with many +files, but only a few are important to the current user. + +The `$GIT_DIR/info/sparse-checkout` file is used to define the +skip-worktree reference bitmap. When Git updates the working +directory, it updates the skip-worktree bits in the index based +on this file. The files matching the patterns in the file will +appear in the working directory, and the rest will not. + +To enable the sparse-checkout feature, run `git sparse-checkout init` to +initialize a simple sparse-checkout file and enable the `core.sparseCheckout` +config setting. Then, run `git sparse-checkout set` to modify the patterns in +the sparse-checkout file. + +To repopulate the working directory with all files, use the +`git sparse-checkout disable` command. + + +FULL PATTERN SET +---------------- + +By default, the sparse-checkout file uses the same syntax as `.gitignore` +files. + +While `$GIT_DIR/info/sparse-checkout` is usually used to specify what +files are included, you can also specify what files are _not_ included, +using negative patterns. For example, to remove the file `unwanted`: + +---------------- +/* +!unwanted +---------------- + + +CONE PATTERN SET +---------------- + +The full pattern set allows for arbitrary pattern matches and complicated +inclusion/exclusion rules. These can result in O(N*M) pattern matches when +updating the index, where N is the number of patterns and M is the number +of paths in the index. To combat this performance issue, a more restricted +pattern set is allowed when `core.sparseCheckoutCone` is enabled. + +The accepted patterns in the cone pattern set are: + +1. *Recursive:* All paths inside a directory are included. + +2. *Parent:* All files immediately inside a directory are included. + +In addition to the above two patterns, we also expect that all files in the +root directory are included. If a recursive pattern is added, then all +leading directories are added as parent patterns. + +By default, when running `git sparse-checkout init`, the root directory is +added as a parent pattern. At this point, the sparse-checkout file contains +the following patterns: + +---------------- +/* +!/*/ +---------------- + +This says "include everything in root, but nothing two levels below root." + +When in cone mode, the `git sparse-checkout set` subcommand takes a list of +directories instead of a list of sparse-checkout patterns. In this mode, +the command `git sparse-checkout set A/B/C` sets the directory `A/B/C` as +a recursive pattern, the directories `A` and `A/B` are added as parent +patterns. The resulting sparse-checkout file is now + +---------------- +/* +!/*/ +/A/ +!/A/*/ +/A/B/ +!/A/B/*/ +/A/B/C/ +---------------- + +Here, order matters, so the negative patterns are overridden by the positive +patterns that appear lower in the file. + +If `core.sparseCheckoutCone=true`, then Git will parse the sparse-checkout file +expecting patterns of these types. Git will warn if the patterns do not match. +If the patterns do match the expected format, then Git will use faster hash- +based algorithms to compute inclusion in the sparse-checkout. + +In the cone mode case, the `git sparse-checkout list` subcommand will list the +directories that define the recursive patterns. For the example sparse-checkout +file above, the output is as follows: + +-------------------------- +$ git sparse-checkout list +A/B/C +-------------------------- + +If `core.ignoreCase=true`, then the pattern-matching algorithm will use a +case-insensitive check. This corrects for case mismatched filenames in the +'git sparse-checkout set' command to reflect the expected cone in the working +directory. + + +SUBMODULES +---------- + +If your repository contains one or more submodules, then submodules +are populated based on interactions with the `git submodule` command. +Specifically, `git submodule init -- <path>` will ensure the submodule +at `<path>` is present, while `git submodule deinit [-f] -- <path>` +will remove the files for the submodule at `<path>` (including any +untracked files, uncommitted changes, and unpushed history). Similar +to how sparse-checkout removes files from the working tree but still +leaves entries in the index, deinitialized submodules are removed from +the working directory but still have an entry in the index. + +Since submodules may have unpushed changes or untracked files, +removing them could result in data loss. Thus, changing sparse +inclusion/exclusion rules will not cause an already checked out +submodule to be removed from the working copy.

The exact format is the same as the input/output format of the +`git credential` plumbing command (see the section `INPUT/OUTPUT +FORMAT` in linkgit:git-credential[1] for a detailed specification). + +For a `get` operation, the helper should produce a list of attributes on +stdout in the same format (see linkgit:git-credential[1] for common +attributes). A helper is free to produce a subset, or even no values at +all if it has nothing useful to provide. Any provided attributes will +overwrite those already known about by Git's credential subsystem. + +While it is possible to override all attributes, well behaving helpers +should refrain from doing so for any attribute other than username and +password. + +If a helper outputs a `quit` attribute with a value of `true` or `1`, +no further helpers will be consulted, nor will the user be prompted +(if no credential has been provided, the operation will then fail). + +Similarly, no more helpers will be consulted once both username and +password had been provided. + +For a `store` or `erase` operation, the helper's output is ignored. + +If a helper fails to perform the requested operation or needs to notify +the user of a potential issue, it may write to stderr. + +If it does not support the requested operation (e.g., a read-only store), +it should silently ignore the request. + +If a helper receives any other operation, it should silently ignore the +request.

For example, the current maintainer of Git uses "Junio + C Hamano". This will be the name portion that is stored in every commit + you make. ++ +This configuration doesn't have any effect on authenticating to remote services; +for that, see `credential.username` in linkgit:git-config[1]. + +[[http-postbuffer]] +What does `http.postBuffer` really do?:: + This option changes the size of the buffer that Git uses when pushing + data to a remote over HTTP or HTTPS. If the data is larger than this + size, libcurl, which handles the HTTP support for Git, will use chunked + transfer encoding since it isn't known ahead of time what the size of + the pushed data will be. ++ +Leaving this value at the default size is fine unless you know that either the +remote server or a proxy in the middle doesn't support HTTP/1.1 (which +introduced the chunked transfer encoding) or is known to be broken with chunked +data. This is often (erroneously) suggested as a solution for generic push +problems, but since almost every server and proxy supports at least HTTP/1.1, +raising this value usually doesn't solve most push problems. A server or proxy +that didn't correctly support HTTP/1.1 and chunked transfer encoding wouldn't be +that useful on the Internet today, since it would break lots of traffic. ++ +Note that increasing this value will increase the memory used on every relevant +push that Git does over HTTP or HTTPS, since the entire buffer is allocated +regardless of whether or not it is all used. Thus, it's best to leave it at the +default unless you are sure you need a different value. + +[[configure-editor]] +How do I configure a different editor?:: + If you haven't specified an editor specifically for Git, it will by default + use the editor you've configured using the `VISUAL` or `EDITOR` environment + variables, or if neither is specified, the system default (which is usually + `vi`). Since some people find `vi` difficult to use or prefer a different + editor, it may be desirable to change the editor used. ++ +If you want to configure a general editor for most programs which need one, you +can edit your shell configuration (e.g., `~/.bashrc` or `~/.zshenv`) to contain +a line setting the `EDITOR` or `VISUAL` environment variable to an appropriate +value. For example, if you prefer the editor `nano`, then you could write the +following: ++ +---- +export VISUAL=nano +---- ++ +If you want to configure an editor specifically for Git, you can either set the +`core.editor` configuration value or the `GIT_EDITOR` environment variable. You +can see linkgit:git-var[1] for details on the order in which these options are +consulted. ++ +Note that in all cases, the editor value will be passed to the shell, so any +arguments containing spaces should be appropriately quoted. Additionally, if +your editor normally detaches from the terminal when invoked, you should specify +it with an argument that makes it not do that, or else Git will not see any +changes. An example of a configuration addressing both of these issues on +Windows would be the configuration `"C:\Program Files\Vim\gvim.exe" --nofork`, +which quotes the filename with spaces and specifies the `--nofork` option to +avoid backgrounding the process. + +Credentials +----------- + +[[http-credentials]] +How do I specify my credentials when pushing over HTTP?:: + The easiest way to do this is to use a credential helper via the + `credential.helper` configuration. Most systems provide a standard + choice to integrate with the system credential manager. For example, + Git for Windows provides the `wincred` credential manager, macOS has the + `osxkeychain` credential manager, and Unix systems with a standard + desktop environment can use the `libsecret` credential manager. All of + these store credentials in an encrypted store to keep your passwords or + tokens secure. ++ +In addition, you can use the `store` credential manager which stores in a file +in your home directory, or the `cache` credential manager, which does not +permanently store your credentials, but does prevent you from being prompted for +them for a certain period of time. ++ +You can also just enter your password when prompted. While it is possible to +place the password (which must be percent-encoded) in the URL, this is not +particularly secure and can lead to accidental exposure of credentials, so it is +not recommended. + +[[http-credentials-environment]] +How do I read a password or token from an environment variable?:: + The `credential.helper` configuration option can also take an arbitrary + shell command that produces the credential protocol on standard output. + This is useful when passing credentials into a container, for example. ++ +Such a shell command can be specified by starting the option value with an +exclamation point. If your password or token were stored in the `GIT_TOKEN`, +you could run the following command to set your credential helper: ++ +---- +$ git config credential.helper \ + '!f() { echo username=author; echo "password=$GIT_TOKEN"; };f' +---- + +[[http-reset-credentials]] +How do I change the password or token I've saved in my credential manager?:: + Usually, if the password or token is invalid, Git will erase it and + prompt for a new one. However, there are times when this doesn't always + happen. To change the password or token, you can erase the existing + credentials and then Git will prompt for new ones. To erase + credentials, use a syntax like the following (substituting your username + and the hostname): ++ +---- +$ echo url=https://author@git.example.org | git credential reject +---- + +[[multiple-accounts-http]] +How do I use multiple accounts with the same hosting provider using HTTP?:: + Usually the easiest way to distinguish between these accounts is to use + the username in the URL. For example, if you have the accounts `author` + and `committer` on `git.example.org`, you can use the URLs + https://author@git.example.org/org1/project1.git and + https://committer@git.example.org/org2/project2.git. This way, when you + use a credential helper, it will automatically try to look up the + correct credentials for your account. If you already have a remote set + up, you can change the URL with something like `git remote set-url + origin https://author@git.example.org/org1/project1.git` (see + linkgit:git-remote[1] for details). + +[[multiple-accounts-ssh]] +How do I use multiple accounts with the same hosting provider using SSH?:: + With most hosting providers that support SSH, a single key pair uniquely + identifies a user. Therefore, to use multiple accounts, it's necessary + to create a key pair for each account. If you're using a reasonably + modern OpenSSH version, you can create a new key pair with something + like `ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -f ~/.ssh/id_committer`. You can then + register the public key (in this case, `~/.ssh/id_committer.pub`; note + the `.pub`) with the hosting provider. ++ +Most hosting providers use a single SSH account for pushing; that is, all users +push to the `git` account (e.g., `git@git.example.org`). If that's the case for +your provider, you can set up multiple aliases in SSH to make it clear which key +pair to use. For example, you could write something like the following in +`~/.ssh/config`, substituting the proper private key file: ++ +---- +# This is the account for author on git.example.org. +Host example_author + HostName git.example.org + User git + # This is the key pair registered for author with git.example.org. + IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_author + IdentitiesOnly yes +# This is the account for committer on git.example.org. +Host example_committer + HostName git.example.org + User git + # This is the key pair registered for committer with git.example.org. + IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_committer + IdentitiesOnly yes +---- ++ +Then, you can adjust your push URL to use `git@example_author` or +`git@example_committer` instead of `git@example.org` (e.g., `git remote set-url +git@example_author:org1/project1.git`). + +Common Issues +------------- + +[[last-commit-amend]] +I've made a mistake in the last commit. How do I change it?:: + You can make the appropriate change to your working tree, run `git add + <file>` or `git rm <file>`, as appropriate, to stage it, and then `git + commit --amend`. Your change will be included in the commit, and you'll + be prompted to edit the commit message again; if you wish to use the + original message verbatim, you can use the `--no-edit` option to `git + commit` in addition, or just save and quit when your editor opens. + +[[undo-previous-change]] +I've made a change with a bug and it's been included in the main branch. How should I undo it?:: + The usual way to deal with this is to use `git revert`. This preserves + the history that the original change was made and was a valuable + contribution, but also introduces a new commit that undoes those changes + because the original had a problem. The commit message of the revert + indicates the commit which was reverted and is usually edited to include + an explanation as to why the revert was made. + +[[ignore-tracked-files]] +How do I ignore changes to a tracked file?:: + Git doesn't provide a way to do this. The reason is that if Git needs + to overwrite this file, such as during a checkout, it doesn't know + whether the changes to the file are precious and should be kept, or + whether they are irrelevant and can safely be destroyed. Therefore, it + has to take the safe route and always preserve them. ++ +It's tempting to try to use certain features of `git update-index`, namely the +assume-unchanged and skip-worktree bits, but these don't work properly for this +purpose and shouldn't be used this way. ++ +If your goal is to modify a configuration file, it can often be helpful to have +a file checked into the repository which is a template or set of defaults which +can then be copied alongside and modified as appropriate. This second, modified +file is usually ignored to prevent accidentally committing it. + +[[files-in-gitignore-are-tracked]] +I asked Git to ignore various files, yet they are still tracked:: + A `gitignore` file ensures that certain file(s) which are not + tracked by Git remain untracked. However, sometimes particular + file(s) may have been tracked before adding them into the + `.gitignore`, hence they still remain tracked. To untrack and + ignore files/patterns, use `git rm --cached <file/pattern>` + and add a pattern to `.gitignore` that matches the <file>. + See linkgit:gitignore[5] for details. + +[[fetching-and-pulling]] +How do I know if I want to do a fetch or a pull?:: + A fetch stores a copy of the latest changes from the remote + repository, without modifying the working tree or current branch. + You can then at your leisure inspect, merge, rebase on top of, or + ignore the upstream changes. A pull consists of a fetch followed + immediately by either a merge or rebase. See linkgit:git-pull[1]. + +Merging and Rebasing +-------------------- + +[[long-running-squash-merge]] +What kinds of problems can occur when merging long-lived branches with squash merges?:: + In general, there are a variety of problems that can occur when using squash + merges to merge two branches multiple times. These can include seeing extra + commits in `git log` output, with a GUI, or when using the `...` notation to + express a range, as well as the possibility of needing to re-resolve conflicts + again and again. ++ +When Git does a normal merge between two branches, it considers exactly three +points: the two branches and a third commit, called the _merge base_, which is +usually the common ancestor of the commits. The result of the merge is the sum +of the changes between the merge base and each head. When you merge two +branches with a regular merge commit, this results in a new commit which will +end up as a merge base when they're merged again, because there is now a new +common ancestor. Git doesn't have to consider changes that occurred before the +merge base, so you don't have to re-resolve any conflicts you resolved before. ++ +When you perform a squash merge, a merge commit isn't created; instead, the +changes from one side are applied as a regular commit to the other side. This +means that the merge base for these branches won't have changed, and so when Git +goes to perform its next merge, it considers all of the changes that it +considered the last time plus the new changes. That means any conflicts may +need to be re-resolved. Similarly, anything using the `...` notation in `git +diff`, `git log`, or a GUI will result in showing all of the changes since the +original merge base. ++ +As a consequence, if you want to merge two long-lived branches repeatedly, it's +best to always use a regular merge commit. + +[[merge-two-revert-one]] +If I make a change on two branches but revert it on one, why does the merge of those branches include the change?:: + By default, when Git does a merge, it uses a strategy called the recursive + strategy, which does a fancy three-way merge. In such a case, when Git + performs the merge, it considers exactly three points: the two heads and a + third point, called the _merge base_, which is usually the common ancestor of + those commits. Git does not consider the history or the individual commits + that have happened on those branches at all. ++ +As a result, if both sides have a change and one side has reverted that change, +the result is to include the change. This is because the code has changed on +one side and there is no net change on the other, and in this scenario, Git +adopts the change. ++ +If this is a problem for you, you can do a rebase instead, rebasing the branch +with the revert onto the other branch. A rebase in this scenario will revert +the change, because a rebase applies each individual commit, including the +revert. Note that rebases rewrite history, so you should avoid rebasing +published branches unless you're sure you're comfortable with that. See the +NOTES section in linkgit:git-rebase[1] for more details. + +Hooks +----- + +[[restrict-with-hooks]] +How do I use hooks to prevent users from making certain changes?:: + The only safe place to make these changes is on the remote repository + (i.e., the Git server), usually in the `pre-receive` hook or in a + continuous integration (CI) system. These are the locations in which + policy can be enforced effectively. ++ +It's common to try to use `pre-commit` hooks (or, for commit messages, +`commit-msg` hooks) to check these things, which is great if you're working as a +solo developer and want the tooling to help you. However, using hooks on a +developer machine is not effective as a policy control because a user can bypass +these hooks with `--no-verify` without being noticed (among various other ways). +Git assumes that the user is in control of their local repositories and doesn't +try to prevent this or tattle on the user. ++ +In addition, some advanced users find `pre-commit` hooks to be an impediment to +workflows that use temporary commits to stage work in progress or that create +fixup commits, so it's better to push these kinds of checks to the server +anyway. + +Cross-Platform Issues +--------------------- + +[[windows-text-binary]] +I'm on Windows and my text files are detected as binary.:: + Git works best when you store text files as UTF-8. Many programs on + Windows support UTF-8, but some do not and only use the little-endian + UTF-16 format, which Git detects as binary. If you can't use UTF-8 with + your programs, you can specify a working tree encoding that indicates + which encoding your files should be checked out with, while still + storing these files as UTF-8 in the repository. This allows tools like + linkgit:git-diff[1] to work as expected, while still allowing your tools + to work. ++ +To do so, you can specify a linkgit:gitattributes[5] pattern with the +`working-tree-encoding` attribute. For example, the following pattern sets all +C files to use UTF-16LE-BOM, which is a common encoding on Windows: ++ +---- +*.c working-tree-encoding=UTF-16LE-BOM +---- ++ +You will need to run `git add --renormalize` to have this take effect. Note +that if you are making these changes on a project that is used across platforms, +you'll probably want to make it in a per-user configuration file or in the one +in `$GIT_DIR/info/attributes`, since making it in a `.gitattributes` file in the +repository will apply to all users of the repository. ++ +See the following entry for information about normalizing line endings as well, +and see linkgit:gitattributes[5] for more information about attribute files. + +[[windows-diff-control-m]] +I'm on Windows and git diff shows my files as having a `^M` at the end.:: + By default, Git expects files to be stored with Unix line endings. As such, + the carriage return (`^M`) that is part of a Windows line ending is shown + because it is considered to be trailing whitespace. Git defaults to showing + trailing whitespace only on new lines, not existing ones. ++ +You can store the files in the repository with Unix line endings and convert +them automatically to your platform's line endings. To do that, set the +configuration option `core.eol` to `native` and see the following entry for +information about how to configure files as text or binary. ++ +You can also control this behavior with the `core.whitespace` setting if you +don't wish to remove the carriage returns from your line endings. + +[[always-modified-files-case]] +Why do I have a file that's always modified?:: + Internally, Git always stores file names as sequences of bytes and doesn't + perform any encoding or case folding. However, Windows and macOS by default + both perform case folding on file names. As a result, it's possible to end up + with multiple files or directories whose names differ only in case. Git can + handle this just fine, but the file system can store only one of these files, + so when Git reads the other file to see its contents, it looks modified. ++ +It's best to remove one of the files such that you only have one file. You can +do this with commands like the following (assuming two files `AFile.txt` and +`afile.txt`) on an otherwise clean working tree: ++ +---- +$ git rm --cached AFile.txt +$ git commit -m 'Remove files conflicting in case' +$ git checkout . +---- ++ +This avoids touching the disk, but removes the additional file. Your project +may prefer to adopt a naming convention, such as all-lowercase names, to avoid +this problem from occurring again; such a convention can be checked using a +`pre-receive` hook or as part of a continuous integration (CI) system. ++ +It is also possible for perpetually modified files to occur on any platform if a +smudge or clean filter is in use on your system but a file was previously +committed without running the smudge or clean filter. To fix this, run the +following on an otherwise clean working tree: ++ +---- +$ git add --renormalize . +---- + +[[recommended-storage-settings]] +What's the recommended way to store files in Git?:: + While Git can store and handle any file of any type, there are some + settings that work better than others. In general, we recommend that + text files be stored in UTF-8 without a byte-order mark (BOM) with LF + (Unix-style) endings. We also recommend the use of UTF-8 (again, + without BOM) in commit messages. These are the settings that work best + across platforms and with tools such as `git diff` and `git merge`. ++ +Additionally, if you have a choice between storage formats that are text based +or non-text based, we recommend storing files in the text format and, if +necessary, transforming them into the other format. For example, a text-based +SQL dump with one record per line will work much better for diffing and merging +than an actual database file. Similarly, text-based formats such as Markdown +and AsciiDoc will work better than binary formats such as Microsoft Word and +PDF. ++ +Similarly, storing binary dependencies (e.g., shared libraries or JAR files) or +build products in the repository is generally not recommended. Dependencies and +build products are best stored on an artifact or package server with only +references, URLs, and hashes stored in the repository. ++ +We also recommend setting a linkgit:gitattributes[5] file to explicitly mark +which files are text and which are binary. If you want Git to guess, you can +set the attribute `text=auto`. For example, the following might be appropriate +in some projects: ++ +---- +# By default, guess. +* text=auto +# Mark all C files as text. +*.c text +# Mark all JPEG files as binary. +*.jpg binary +---- ++ +These settings help tools pick the right format for output such as patches and +result in files being checked out in the appropriate line ending for the +platform. + +GIT +--- +Part of the linkgit:git[1] suite diff --git a/third_party/git/Documentation/githooks.txt b/third_party/git/Documentation/githooks.txt index 82cd573776ce..6e461ace6e64 100644 --- a/third_party/git/Documentation/githooks.txt +++ b/third_party/git/Documentation/githooks.txt @@ -103,6 +103,28 @@ The default 'pre-commit' hook, when enabled--and with the `hooks.allownonascii` config option unset or set to false--prevents the use of non-ASCII filenames. +pre-merge-commit +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +This hook is invoked by linkgit:git-merge[1], and can be bypassed +with the `--no-verify` option.

The callback function is responsible -for any actions to be taken on the config option, and is free to ignore -some options. It is not uncommon for the configuration to be parsed -several times during the run of a Git program, with different callbacks -picking out different variables useful to themselves. - -A config callback function takes three parameters: - -- the name of the parsed variable. This is in canonical "flat" form: the - section, subsection, and variable segments will be separated by dots, - and the section and variable segments will be all lowercase. E.g., - `core.ignorecase`, `diff.SomeType.textconv`. - -- the value of the found variable, as a string. If the variable had no - value specified, the value will be NULL (typically this means it - should be interpreted as boolean true). - -- a void pointer passed in by the caller of the config API; this can - contain callback-specific data - -A config callback should return 0 for success, or -1 if the variable -could not be parsed properly. - -Basic Config Querying ---------------------- - -Most programs will simply want to look up variables in all config files -that Git knows about, using the normal precedence rules. To do this, -call `git_config` with a callback function and void data pointer. - -`git_config` will read all config sources in order of increasing -priority. Thus a callback should typically overwrite previously-seen -entries with new ones (e.g., if both the user-wide `~/.gitconfig` and -repo-specific `.git/config` contain `color.ui`, the config machinery -will first feed the user-wide one to the callback, and then the -repo-specific one; by overwriting, the higher-priority repo-specific -value is left at the end). - -The `config_with_options` function lets the caller examine config -while adjusting some of the default behavior of `git_config`. It should -almost never be used by "regular" Git code that is looking up -configuration variables. It is intended for advanced callers like -`git-config`, which are intentionally tweaking the normal config-lookup -process. It takes two extra parameters: - -`config_source`:: -If this parameter is non-NULL, it specifies the source to parse for -configuration, rather than looking in the usual files. See `struct -git_config_source` in `config.h` for details. Regular `git_config` defaults -to `NULL`. - -`opts`:: -Specify options to adjust the behavior of parsing config files. See `struct -config_options` in `config.h` for details. As an example: regular `git_config` -sets `opts.respect_includes` to `1` by default. - -Reading Specific Files ----------------------- - -To read a specific file in git-config format, use -`git_config_from_file`. This takes the same callback and data parameters -as `git_config`. - -Querying For Specific Variables -------------------------------- - -For programs wanting to query for specific variables in a non-callback -manner, the config API provides two functions `git_config_get_value` -and `git_config_get_value_multi`. They both read values from an internal -cache generated previously from reading the config files. - -`int git_config_get_value(const char *key, const char **value)`:: - - Finds the highest-priority value for the configuration variable `key`, - stores the pointer to it in `value` and returns 0. When the - configuration variable `key` is not found, returns 1 without touching - `value`. The caller should not free or modify `value`, as it is owned - by the cache. - -`const struct string_list *git_config_get_value_multi(const char *key)`:: - - Finds and returns the value list, sorted in order of increasing priority - for the configuration variable `key`. When the configuration variable - `key` is not found, returns NULL. The caller should not free or modify - the returned pointer, as it is owned by the cache. - -`void git_config_clear(void)`:: - - Resets and invalidates the config cache. - -The config API also provides type specific API functions which do conversion -as well as retrieval for the queried variable, including: - -`int git_config_get_int(const char *key, int *dest)`:: - - Finds and parses the value to an integer for the configuration variable - `key`. Dies on error; otherwise, stores the value of the parsed integer in - `dest` and returns 0. When the configuration variable `key` is not found, - returns 1 without touching `dest`. - -`int git_config_get_ulong(const char *key, unsigned long *dest)`:: - - Similar to `git_config_get_int` but for unsigned longs. - -`int git_config_get_bool(const char *key, int *dest)`:: - - Finds and parses the value into a boolean value, for the configuration - variable `key` respecting keywords like "true" and "false". Integer - values are converted into true/false values (when they are non-zero or - zero, respectively). Other values cause a die(). If parsing is successful, - stores the value of the parsed result in `dest` and returns 0. When the - configuration variable `key` is not found, returns 1 without touching - `dest`. - -`int git_config_get_bool_or_int(const char *key, int *is_bool, int *dest)`:: - - Similar to `git_config_get_bool`, except that integers are copied as-is, - and `is_bool` flag is unset. - -`int git_config_get_maybe_bool(const char *key, int *dest)`:: - - Similar to `git_config_get_bool`, except that it returns -1 on error - rather than dying. - -`int git_config_get_string_const(const char *key, const char **dest)`:: - - Allocates and copies the retrieved string into the `dest` parameter for - the configuration variable `key`; if NULL string is given, prints an - error message and returns -1. When the configuration variable `key` is - not found, returns 1 without touching `dest`. - -`int git_config_get_string(const char *key, char **dest)`:: - - Similar to `git_config_get_string_const`, except that retrieved value - copied into the `dest` parameter is a mutable string. - -`int git_config_get_pathname(const char *key, const char **dest)`:: - - Similar to `git_config_get_string`, but expands `~` or `~user` into - the user's home directory when found at the beginning of the path. - -`git_die_config(const char *key, const char *err, ...)`:: - - First prints the error message specified by the caller in `err` and then - dies printing the line number and the file name of the highest priority - value for the configuration variable `key`. - -`void git_die_config_linenr(const char *key, const char *filename, int linenr)`:: - - Helper function which formats the die error message according to the - parameters entered. Used by `git_die_config()`. It can be used by callers - handling `git_config_get_value_multi()` to print the correct error message - for the desired value. - -See test-config.c for usage examples. - -Value Parsing Helpers ---------------------- - -To aid in parsing string values, the config API provides callbacks with -a number of helper functions, including: - -`git_config_int`:: -Parse the string to an integer, including unit factors. Dies on error; -otherwise, returns the parsed result. - -`git_config_ulong`:: -Identical to `git_config_int`, but for unsigned longs. - -`git_config_bool`:: -Parse a string into a boolean value, respecting keywords like "true" and -"false". Integer values are converted into true/false values (when they -are non-zero or zero, respectively). Other values cause a die(). If -parsing is successful, the return value is the result. - -`git_config_bool_or_int`:: -Same as `git_config_bool`, except that integers are returned as-is, and -an `is_bool` flag is unset. - -`git_parse_maybe_bool`:: -Same as `git_config_bool`, except that it returns -1 on error rather -than dying. - -`git_config_string`:: -Allocates and copies the value string into the `dest` parameter; if no -string is given, prints an error message and returns -1. - -`git_config_pathname`:: -Similar to `git_config_string`, but expands `~` or `~user` into the -user's home directory when found at the beginning of the path. - -Include Directives ------------------- - -By default, the config parser does not respect include directives. -However, a caller can use the special `git_config_include` wrapper -callback to support them. To do so, you simply wrap your "real" callback -function and data pointer in a `struct config_include_data`, and pass -the wrapper to the regular config-reading functions. For example: - -------------------------------------------- -int read_file_with_include(const char *file, config_fn_t fn, void *data) -{ - struct config_include_data inc = CONFIG_INCLUDE_INIT; - inc.fn = fn; - inc.data = data; - return git_config_from_file(git_config_include, file, &inc); -} -------------------------------------------- - -`git_config` respects includes automatically. The lower-level -`git_config_from_file` does not. - -Custom Configsets ------------------ - -A `config_set` can be used to construct an in-memory cache for -config-like files that the caller specifies (i.e., files like `.gitmodules`, -`~/.gitconfig` etc.). For example, - ----------------------------------------- -struct config_set gm_config; -git_configset_init(&gm_config); -int b; -/* we add config files to the config_set */ -git_configset_add_file(&gm_config, ".gitmodules"); -git_configset_add_file(&gm_config, ".gitmodules_alt"); - -if (!git_configset_get_bool(gm_config, "submodule.frotz.ignore", &b)) { - /* hack hack hack */ -} - -/* when we are done with the configset */ -git_configset_clear(&gm_config); ----------------------------------------- - -Configset API provides functions for the above mentioned work flow, including: - -`void git_configset_init(struct config_set *cs)`:: - - Initializes the config_set `cs`. - -`int git_configset_add_file(struct config_set *cs, const char *filename)`:: - - Parses the file and adds the variable-value pairs to the `config_set`, - dies if there is an error in parsing the file. Returns 0 on success, or - -1 if the file does not exist or is inaccessible. The user has to decide - if he wants to free the incomplete configset or continue using it when - the function returns -1. - -`int git_configset_get_value(struct config_set *cs, const char *key, const char **value)`:: - - Finds the highest-priority value for the configuration variable `key` - and config set `cs`, stores the pointer to it in `value` and returns 0. - When the configuration variable `key` is not found, returns 1 without - touching `value`. The caller should not free or modify `value`, as it - is owned by the cache. - -`const struct string_list *git_configset_get_value_multi(struct config_set *cs, const char *key)`:: - - Finds and returns the value list, sorted in order of increasing priority - for the configuration variable `key` and config set `cs`. When the - configuration variable `key` is not found, returns NULL. The caller - should not free or modify the returned pointer, as it is owned by the cache. - -`void git_configset_clear(struct config_set *cs)`:: - - Clears `config_set` structure, removes all saved variable-value pairs. - -In addition to above functions, the `config_set` API provides type specific -functions in the vein of `git_config_get_int` and family but with an extra -parameter, pointer to struct `config_set`. -They all behave similarly to the `git_config_get*()` family described in -"Querying For Specific Variables" above. - -Writing Config Files --------------------- - -Git gives multiple entry points in the Config API to write config values to -files namely `git_config_set_in_file` and `git_config_set`, which write to -a specific config file or to `.git/config` respectively. They both take a -key/value pair as parameter. -In the end they both call `git_config_set_multivar_in_file` which takes four -parameters: - -- the name of the file, as a string, to which key/value pairs will be written. - -- the name of key, as a string. This is in canonical "flat" form: the section, - subsection, and variable segments will be separated by dots, and the section - and variable segments will be all lowercase. - E.g., `core.ignorecase`, `diff.SomeType.textconv`. - -- the value of the variable, as a string. If value is equal to NULL, it will - remove the matching key from the config file. - -- the value regex, as a string. It will disregard key/value pairs where value - does not match. - -- a multi_replace value, as an int. If value is equal to zero, nothing or only - one matching key/value is replaced, else all matching key/values (regardless - how many) are removed, before the new pair is written. - -It returns 0 on success. - -Also, there are functions `git_config_rename_section` and -`git_config_rename_section_in_file` with parameters `old_name` and `new_name` -for renaming or removing sections in the config files. If NULL is passed -through `new_name` parameter, the section will be removed from the config file. diff --git a/third_party/git/Documentation/technical/api-credentials.txt b/third_party/git/Documentation/technical/api-credentials.txt deleted file mode 100644 index 75368f26ca28..000000000000 --- a/third_party/git/Documentation/technical/api-credentials.txt +++ /dev/null @@ -1,271 +0,0 @@ -credentials API -=============== - -The credentials API provides an abstracted way of gathering username and -password credentials from the user (even though credentials in the wider -world can take many forms, in this document the word "credential" always -refers to a username and password pair). - -This document describes two interfaces: the C API that the credential -subsystem provides to the rest of Git, and the protocol that Git uses to -communicate with system-specific "credential helpers".

Users of reftable may choose to continue to reject `foo` and +`foo/bar` type conflicts to prevent problems for peers. + +File format +~~~~~~~~~~~ + +Structure +^^^^^^^^^ + +A reftable file has the following high-level structure: + +.... +first_block { + header + first_ref_block +} +ref_block* +ref_index* +obj_block* +obj_index* +log_block* +log_index* +footer +.... + +A log-only file omits the `ref_block`, `ref_index`, `obj_block` and +`obj_index` sections, containing only the file header and log block: + +.... +first_block { + header +} +log_block* +log_index* +footer +.... + +in a log-only file the first log block immediately follows the file +header, without padding to block alignment. + +Block size +^^^^^^^^^^ + +The file's block size is arbitrarily determined by the writer, and does +not have to be a power of 2. The block size must be larger than the +longest reference name or log entry used in the repository, as +references cannot span blocks. + +Powers of two that are friendly to the virtual memory system or +filesystem (such as 4k or 8k) are recommended. Larger sizes (64k) can +yield better compression, with a possible increased cost incurred by +readers during access. + +The largest block size is `16777215` bytes (15.99 MiB). + +Block alignment +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +Writers may choose to align blocks at multiples of the block size by +including `padding` filled with NUL bytes at the end of a block to round +out to the chosen alignment. When alignment is used, writers must +specify the alignment with the file header's `block_size` field. + +Block alignment is not required by the file format. Unaligned files must +set `block_size = 0` in the file header, and omit `padding`. Unaligned +files with more than one ref block must include the link:#Ref-index[ref +index] to support fast lookup. Readers must be able to read both aligned +and non-aligned files. + +Very small files (e.g. a single ref block) may omit `padding` and the ref +index to reduce total file size. + +Header (version 1) +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +A 24-byte header appears at the beginning of the file: + +.... +'REFT' +uint8( version_number = 1 ) +uint24( block_size ) +uint64( min_update_index ) +uint64( max_update_index ) +.... + +Aligned files must specify `block_size` to configure readers with the +expected block alignment. Unaligned files must set `block_size = 0`. + +The `min_update_index` and `max_update_index` describe bounds for the +`update_index` field of all log records in this file. When reftables are +used in a stack for link:#Update-transactions[transactions], these +fields can order the files such that the prior file's +`max_update_index + 1` is the next file's `min_update_index`. + +Header (version 2) +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +A 28-byte header appears at the beginning of the file: + +.... +'REFT' +uint8( version_number = 2 ) +uint24( block_size ) +uint64( min_update_index ) +uint64( max_update_index ) +uint32( hash_id ) +.... + +The header is identical to `version_number=1`, with the 4-byte hash ID +("sha1" for SHA1 and "s256" for SHA-256) append to the header. + +For maximum backward compatibility, it is recommended to use version 1 when +writing SHA1 reftables. + +First ref block +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +The first ref block shares the same block as the file header, and is 24 +bytes smaller than all other blocks in the file. The first block +immediately begins after the file header, at position 24. + +If the first block is a log block (a log-only file), its block header +begins immediately at position 24. + +Ref block format +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +A ref block is written as: + +.... +'r' +uint24( block_len ) +ref_record+ +uint24( restart_offset )+ +uint16( restart_count ) + +padding? +.... + +Blocks begin with `block_type = 'r'` and a 3-byte `block_len` which +encodes the number of bytes in the block up to, but not including the +optional `padding`. This is always less than or equal to the file's +block size. In the first ref block, `block_len` includes 24 bytes for +the file header. + +The 2-byte `restart_count` stores the number of entries in the +`restart_offset` list, which must not be empty. Readers can use +`restart_count` to binary search between restarts before starting a +linear scan. + +Exactly `restart_count` 3-byte `restart_offset` values precedes the +`restart_count`. Offsets are relative to the start of the block and +refer to the first byte of any `ref_record` whose name has not been +prefix compressed. Entries in the `restart_offset` list must be sorted, +ascending. Readers can start linear scans from any of these records. + +A variable number of `ref_record` fill the middle of the block, +describing reference names and values. The format is described below. + +As the first ref block shares the first file block with the file header, +all `restart_offset` in the first block are relative to the start of the +file (position 0), and include the file header. This forces the first +`restart_offset` to be `28`. + +ref record +++++++++++ + +A `ref_record` describes a single reference, storing both the name and +its value(s). Records are formatted as: + +.... +varint( prefix_length ) +varint( (suffix_length << 3) | value_type ) +suffix +varint( update_index_delta ) +value? +.... + +The `prefix_length` field specifies how many leading bytes of the prior +reference record's name should be copied to obtain this reference's +name. This must be 0 for the first reference in any block, and also must +be 0 for any `ref_record` whose offset is listed in the `restart_offset` +table at the end of the block. + +Recovering a reference name from any `ref_record` is a simple concat: + +.... +this_name = prior_name[0..prefix_length] + suffix +.... + +The `suffix_length` value provides the number of bytes available in +`suffix` to copy from `suffix` to complete the reference name. + +The `update_index` that last modified the reference can be obtained by +adding `update_index_delta` to the `min_update_index` from the file +header: `min_update_index + update_index_delta`. + +The `value` follows. Its format is determined by `value_type`, one of +the following: + +* `0x0`: deletion; no value data (see transactions, below) +* `0x1`: one object name; value of the ref +* `0x2`: two object names; value of the ref, peeled target +* `0x3`: symbolic reference: `varint( target_len ) target` + +Symbolic references use `0x3`, followed by the complete name of the +reference target. No compression is applied to the target name. + +Types `0x4..0x7` are reserved for future use. + +Ref index +^^^^^^^^^ + +The ref index stores the name of the last reference from every ref block +in the file, enabling reduced disk seeks for lookups. Any reference can +be found by searching the index, identifying the containing block, and +searching within that block. + +The index may be organized into a multi-level index, where the 1st level +index block points to additional ref index blocks (2nd level), which may +in turn point to either additional index blocks (e.g. 3rd level) or ref +blocks (leaf level). Disk reads required to access a ref go up with +higher index levels. Multi-level indexes may be required to ensure no +single index block exceeds the file format's max block size of +`16777215` bytes (15.99 MiB). To achieve constant O(1) disk seeks for +lookups the index must be a single level, which is permitted to exceed +the file's configured block size, but not the format's max block size of +15.99 MiB. + +If present, the ref index block(s) appears after the last ref block. + +If there are at least 4 ref blocks, a ref index block should be written +to improve lookup times. Cold reads using the index require 2 disk reads +(read index, read block), and binary searching < 4 blocks also requires +<= 2 reads. Omitting the index block from smaller files saves space. + +If the file is unaligned and contains more than one ref block, the ref +index must be written. + +Index block format: + +.... +'i' +uint24( block_len ) +index_record+ +uint24( restart_offset )+ +uint16( restart_count ) + +padding? +.... + +The index blocks begin with `block_type = 'i'` and a 3-byte `block_len` +which encodes the number of bytes in the block, up to but not including +the optional `padding`. + +The `restart_offset` and `restart_count` fields are identical in format, +meaning and usage as in ref blocks. + +To reduce the number of reads required for random access in very large +files the index block may be larger than other blocks. However, readers +must hold the entire index in memory to benefit from this, so it's a +time-space tradeoff in both file size and reader memory. + +Increasing the file's block size decreases the index size. Alternatively +a multi-level index may be used, keeping index blocks within the file's +block size, but increasing the number of blocks that need to be +accessed. + +index record +++++++++++++ + +An index record describes the last entry in another block. Index records +are written as: + +.... +varint( prefix_length ) +varint( (suffix_length << 3) | 0 ) +suffix +varint( block_position ) +.... + +Index records use prefix compression exactly like `ref_record`. + +Index records store `block_position` after the suffix, specifying the +absolute position in bytes (from the start of the file) of the block +that ends with this reference. Readers can seek to `block_position` to +begin reading the block header. + +Readers must examine the block header at `block_position` to determine +if the next block is another level index block, or the leaf-level ref +block. + +Reading the index ++++++++++++++++++ + +Readers loading the ref index must first read the footer (below) to +obtain `ref_index_position`. If not present, the position will be 0. The +`ref_index_position` is for the 1st level root of the ref index. + +Obj block format +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +Object blocks are optional. Writers may choose to omit object blocks, +especially if readers will not use the object name to ref mapping. + +Object blocks use unique, abbreviated 2-32 object name keys, mapping to +ref blocks containing references pointing to that object directly, or as +the peeled value of an annotated tag. Like ref blocks, object blocks use +the file's standard block size. The abbrevation length is available in +the footer as `obj_id_len`. + +To save space in small files, object blocks may be omitted if the ref +index is not present, as brute force search will only need to read a few +ref blocks. When missing, readers should brute force a linear search of +all references to lookup by object name. + +An object block is written as: + +.... +'o' +uint24( block_len ) +obj_record+ +uint24( restart_offset )+ +uint16( restart_count ) + +padding? +.... + +Fields are identical to ref block. Binary search using the restart table +works the same as in reference blocks. + +Because object names are abbreviated by writers to the shortest unique +abbreviation within the reftable, obj key lengths have a variable length. Their +length must be at least 2 bytes. Readers must compare only for common prefix +match within an obj block or obj index. + +obj record +++++++++++ + +An `obj_record` describes a single object abbreviation, and the blocks +containing references using that unique abbreviation: + +.... +varint( prefix_length ) +varint( (suffix_length << 3) | cnt_3 ) +suffix +varint( cnt_large )? +varint( position_delta )* +.... + +Like in reference blocks, abbreviations are prefix compressed within an +obj block. On large reftables with many unique objects, higher block +sizes (64k), and higher restart interval (128), a `prefix_length` of 2 +or 3 and `suffix_length` of 3 may be common in obj records (unique +abbreviation of 5-6 raw bytes, 10-12 hex digits). + +Each record contains `position_count` number of positions for matching +ref blocks. For 1-7 positions the count is stored in `cnt_3`. When +`cnt_3 = 0` the actual count follows in a varint, `cnt_large`. + +The use of `cnt_3` bets most objects are pointed to by only a single +reference, some may be pointed to by a couple of references, and very +few (if any) are pointed to by more than 7 references. + +A special case exists when `cnt_3 = 0` and `cnt_large = 0`: there are no +`position_delta`, but at least one reference starts with this +abbreviation. A reader that needs exact reference names must scan all +references to find which specific references have the desired object. +Writers should use this format when the `position_delta` list would have +overflowed the file's block size due to a high number of references +pointing to the same object. + +The first `position_delta` is the position from the start of the file. +Additional `position_delta` entries are sorted ascending and relative to +the prior entry, e.g. a reader would perform: + +.... +pos = position_delta[0] +prior = pos +for (j = 1; j < position_count; j++) { + pos = prior + position_delta[j] + prior = pos +} +.... + +With a position in hand, a reader must linearly scan the ref block, +starting from the first `ref_record`, testing each reference's object names +(for `value_type = 0x1` or `0x2`) for full equality. Faster searching by +object name within a single ref block is not supported by the reftable format. +Smaller block sizes reduce the number of candidates this step must +consider. + +Obj index +^^^^^^^^^ + +The obj index stores the abbreviation from the last entry for every obj +block in the file, enabling reduced disk seeks for all lookups. It is +formatted exactly the same as the ref index, but refers to obj blocks. + +The obj index should be present if obj blocks are present, as obj blocks +should only be written in larger files. + +Readers loading the obj index must first read the footer (below) to +obtain `obj_index_position`. If not present, the position will be 0. + +Log block format +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +Unlike ref and obj blocks, log blocks are always unaligned. + +Log blocks are variable in size, and do not match the `block_size` +specified in the file header or footer. Writers should choose an +appropriate buffer size to prepare a log block for deflation, such as +`2 * block_size`. + +A log block is written as: + +.... +'g' +uint24( block_len ) +zlib_deflate { + log_record+ + uint24( restart_offset )+ + uint16( restart_count ) +} +.... + +Log blocks look similar to ref blocks, except `block_type = 'g'`. + +The 4-byte block header is followed by the deflated block contents using +zlib deflate. The `block_len` in the header is the inflated size +(including 4-byte block header), and should be used by readers to +preallocate the inflation output buffer. A log block's `block_len` may +exceed the file's block size. + +Offsets within the log block (e.g. `restart_offset`) still include the +4-byte header. Readers may prefer prefixing the inflation output buffer +with the 4-byte header. + +Within the deflate container, a variable number of `log_record` describe +reference changes. The log record format is described below. See ref +block format (above) for a description of `restart_offset` and +`restart_count`. + +Because log blocks have no alignment or padding between blocks, readers +must keep track of the bytes consumed by the inflater to know where the +next log block begins. + +log record +++++++++++ + +Log record keys are structured as: + +.... +ref_name '\0' reverse_int64( update_index ) +.... + +where `update_index` is the unique transaction identifier. The +`update_index` field must be unique within the scope of a `ref_name`. +See the update transactions section below for further details. + +The `reverse_int64` function inverses the value so lexicographical +ordering the network byte order encoding sorts the more recent records +with higher `update_index` values first: + +.... +reverse_int64(int64 t) { + return 0xffffffffffffffff - t; +} +.... + +Log records have a similar starting structure to ref and index records, +utilizing the same prefix compression scheme applied to the log record +key described above. + +.... + varint( prefix_length ) + varint( (suffix_length << 3) | log_type ) + suffix + log_data { + old_id + new_id + varint( name_length ) name + varint( email_length ) email + varint( time_seconds ) + sint16( tz_offset ) + varint( message_length ) message + }? +.... + +Log record entries use `log_type` to indicate what follows: + +* `0x0`: deletion; no log data. +* `0x1`: standard git reflog data using `log_data` above. + +The `log_type = 0x0` is mostly useful for `git stash drop`, removing an +entry from the reflog of `refs/stash` in a transaction file (below), +without needing to rewrite larger files. Readers reading a stack of +reflogs must treat this as a deletion. + +For `log_type = 0x1`, the `log_data` section follows +linkgit:git-update-ref[1] logging and includes: + +* two object names (old id, new id) +* varint string of committer's name +* varint string of committer's email +* varint time in seconds since epoch (Jan 1, 1970) +* 2-byte timezone offset in minutes (signed) +* varint string of message + +`tz_offset` is the absolute number of minutes from GMT the committer was +at the time of the update. For example `GMT-0800` is encoded in reftable +as `sint16(-480)` and `GMT+0230` is `sint16(150)`. + +The committer email does not contain `<` or `>`, it's the value normally +found between the `<>` in a git commit object header. + +The `message_length` may be 0, in which case there was no message +supplied for the update. + +Contrary to traditional reflog (which is a file), renames are encoded as +a combination of ref deletion and ref creation. A deletion is a log +record with a zero new_id, and a creation is a log record with a zero old_id. + +Reading the log ++++++++++++++++ + +Readers accessing the log must first read the footer (below) to +determine the `log_position`. The first block of the log begins at +`log_position` bytes since the start of the file. The `log_position` is +not block aligned. + +Importing logs +++++++++++++++ + +When importing from `$GIT_DIR/logs` writers should globally order all +log records roughly by timestamp while preserving file order, and assign +unique, increasing `update_index` values for each log line. Newer log +records get higher `update_index` values. + +Although an import may write only a single reftable file, the reftable +file must span many unique `update_index`, as each log line requires its +own `update_index` to preserve semantics. + +Log index +^^^^^^^^^ + +The log index stores the log key +(`refname \0 reverse_int64(update_index)`) for the last log record of +every log block in the file, supporting bounded-time lookup. + +A log index block must be written if 2 or more log blocks are written to +the file. If present, the log index appears after the last log block. +There is no padding used to align the log index to block alignment. + +Log index format is identical to ref index, except the keys are 9 bytes +longer to include `'\0'` and the 8-byte `reverse_int64(update_index)`. +Records use `block_position` to refer to the start of a log block. + +Reading the index ++++++++++++++++++ + +Readers loading the log index must first read the footer (below) to +obtain `log_index_position`. If not present, the position will be 0. + +Footer +^^^^^^ + +After the last block of the file, a file footer is written. It begins +like the file header, but is extended with additional data. + +.... + HEADER + + uint64( ref_index_position ) + uint64( (obj_position << 5) | obj_id_len ) + uint64( obj_index_position ) + + uint64( log_position ) + uint64( log_index_position ) + + uint32( CRC-32 of above ) +.... + +If a section is missing (e.g. ref index) the corresponding position +field (e.g. `ref_index_position`) will be 0. + +* `obj_position`: byte position for the first obj block. +* `obj_id_len`: number of bytes used to abbreviate object names in +obj blocks. +* `log_position`: byte position for the first log block. +* `ref_index_position`: byte position for the start of the ref index. +* `obj_index_position`: byte position for the start of the obj index. +* `log_index_position`: byte position for the start of the log index. + +The size of the footer is 68 bytes for version 1, and 72 bytes for +version 2. + +Reading the footer +++++++++++++++++++ + +Readers must first read the file start to determine the version +number. Then they seek to `file_length - FOOTER_LENGTH` to access the +footer. A trusted external source (such as `stat(2)`) is necessary to +obtain `file_length`. When reading the footer, readers must verify: + +* 4-byte magic is correct +* 1-byte version number is recognized +* 4-byte CRC-32 matches the other 64 bytes (including magic, and +version) + +Once verified, the other fields of the footer can be accessed. + +Empty tables +++++++++++++ + +A reftable may be empty. In this case, the file starts with a header +and is immediately followed by a footer. + +Binary search +^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +Binary search within a block is supported by the `restart_offset` fields +at the end of the block. Readers can binary search through the restart +table to locate between which two restart points the sought reference or +key should appear. + +Each record identified by a `restart_offset` stores the complete key in +the `suffix` field of the record, making the compare operation during +binary search straightforward. + +Once a restart point lexicographically before the sought reference has +been identified, readers can linearly scan through the following record +entries to locate the sought record, terminating if the current record +sorts after (and therefore the sought key is not present). + +Restart point selection ++++++++++++++++++++++++ + +Writers determine the restart points at file creation. The process is +arbitrary, but every 16 or 64 records is recommended. Every 16 may be +more suitable for smaller block sizes (4k or 8k), every 64 for larger +block sizes (64k). + +More frequent restart points reduces prefix compression and increases +space consumed by the restart table, both of which increase file size. + +Less frequent restart points makes prefix compression more effective, +decreasing overall file size, with increased penalties for readers +walking through more records after the binary search step. + +A maximum of `65535` restart points per block is supported. + +Considerations +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +Lightweight refs dominate +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +The reftable format assumes the vast majority of references are single +object names valued with common prefixes, such as Gerrit Code Review's +`refs/changes/` namespace, GitHub's `refs/pulls/` namespace, or many +lightweight tags in the `refs/tags/` namespace. + +Annotated tags storing the peeled object cost an additional object name per +reference. + +Low overhead +^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +A reftable with very few references (e.g. git.git with 5 heads) is 269 +bytes for reftable, vs. 332 bytes for packed-refs. This supports +reftable scaling down for transaction logs (below). + +Block size +^^^^^^^^^^ + +For a Gerrit Code Review type repository with many change refs, larger +block sizes (64 KiB) and less frequent restart points (every 64) yield +better compression due to more references within the block compressing +against the prior reference. + +Larger block sizes reduce the index size, as the reftable will require +fewer blocks to store the same number of references. + +Minimal disk seeks +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +Assuming the index block has been loaded into memory, binary searching +for any single reference requires exactly 1 disk seek to load the +containing block. + +Scans and lookups dominate +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +Scanning all references and lookup by name (or namespace such as +`refs/heads/`) are the most common activities performed on repositories. +Object names are stored directly with references to optimize this use case. + +Logs are infrequently read +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +Logs are infrequently accessed, but can be large. Deflating log blocks +saves disk space, with some increased penalty at read time. + +Logs are stored in an isolated section from refs, reducing the burden on +reference readers that want to ignore logs. Further, historical logs can +be isolated into log-only files. + +Logs are read backwards +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +Logs are frequently accessed backwards (most recent N records for master +to answer `master@{4}`), so log records are grouped by reference, and +sorted descending by update index. + +Repository format +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +Version 1 +^^^^^^^^^ + +A repository must set its `$GIT_DIR/config` to configure reftable: + +.... +[core] + repositoryformatversion = 1 +[extensions] + refStorage = reftable +.... + +Layout +^^^^^^ + +A collection of reftable files are stored in the `$GIT_DIR/reftable/` +directory: + +.... +00000001-00000001.log +00000002-00000002.ref +00000003-00000003.ref +.... + +where reftable files are named by a unique name such as produced by the +function `${min_update_index}-${max_update_index}.ref`. + +Log-only files use the `.log` extension, while ref-only and mixed ref +and log files use `.ref`. extension. + +The stack ordering file is `$GIT_DIR/reftable/tables.list` and lists the +current files, one per line, in order, from oldest (base) to newest +(most recent): + +.... +$ cat .git/reftable/tables.list +00000001-00000001.log +00000002-00000002.ref +00000003-00000003.ref +.... + +Readers must read `$GIT_DIR/reftable/tables.list` to determine which +files are relevant right now, and search through the stack in reverse +order (last reftable is examined first). + +Reftable files not listed in `tables.list` may be new (and about to be +added to the stack by the active writer), or ancient and ready to be +pruned. + +Backward compatibility +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +Older clients should continue to recognize the directory as a git +repository so they don't look for an enclosing repository in parent +directories. To this end, a reftable-enabled repository must contain the +following dummy files + +* `.git/HEAD`, a regular file containing `ref: refs/heads/.invalid`. +* `.git/refs/`, a directory +* `.git/refs/heads`, a regular file + +Readers +^^^^^^^ + +Readers can obtain a consistent snapshot of the reference space by +following: + +1. Open and read the `tables.list` file. +2. Open each of the reftable files that it mentions. +3. If any of the files is missing, goto 1. +4. Read from the now-open files as long as necessary. + +Update transactions +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +Although reftables are immutable, mutations are supported by writing a +new reftable and atomically appending it to the stack: + +1. Acquire `tables.list.lock`. +2. Read `tables.list` to determine current reftables. +3. Select `update_index` to be most recent file's +`max_update_index + 1`. +4. Prepare temp reftable `tmp_XXXXXX`, including log entries. +5. Rename `tmp_XXXXXX` to `${update_index}-${update_index}.ref`. +6. Copy `tables.list` to `tables.list.lock`, appending file from (5). +7. Rename `tables.list.lock` to `tables.list`. + +During step 4 the new file's `min_update_index` and `max_update_index` +are both set to the `update_index` selected by step 3. All log records +for the transaction use the same `update_index` in their keys. This +enables later correlation of which references were updated by the same +transaction. + +Because a single `tables.list.lock` file is used to manage locking, the +repository is single-threaded for writers. Writers may have to busy-spin +(with backoff) around creating `tables.list.lock`, for up to an +acceptable wait period, aborting if the repository is too busy to +mutate. Application servers wrapped around repositories (e.g. Gerrit +Code Review) can layer their own lock/wait queue to improve fairness to +writers. + +Reference deletions +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +Deletion of any reference can be explicitly stored by setting the `type` +to `0x0` and omitting the `value` field of the `ref_record`. This serves +as a tombstone, overriding any assertions about the existence of the +reference from earlier files in the stack. + +Compaction +^^^^^^^^^^ + +A partial stack of reftables can be compacted by merging references +using a straightforward merge join across reftables, selecting the most +recent value for output, and omitting deleted references that do not +appear in remaining, lower reftables. + +A compacted reftable should set its `min_update_index` to the smallest +of the input files' `min_update_index`, and its `max_update_index` +likewise to the largest input `max_update_index`. + +For sake of illustration, assume the stack currently consists of +reftable files (from oldest to newest): A, B, C, and D. The compactor is +going to compact B and C, leaving A and D alone. + +1. Obtain lock `tables.list.lock` and read the `tables.list` file. +2. Obtain locks `B.lock` and `C.lock`. Ownership of these locks +prevents other processes from trying to compact these files. +3. Release `tables.list.lock`. +4. Compact `B` and `C` into a temp file +`${min_update_index}-${max_update_index}_XXXXXX`. +5. Reacquire lock `tables.list.lock`. +6. Verify that `B` and `C` are still in the stack, in that order. This +should always be the case, assuming that other processes are adhering to +the locking protocol. +7. Rename `${min_update_index}-${max_update_index}_XXXXXX` to +`${min_update_index}-${max_update_index}.ref`. +8. Write the new stack to `tables.list.lock`, replacing `B` and `C` +with the file from (4). +9. Rename `tables.list.lock` to `tables.list`. +10. Delete `B` and `C`, perhaps after a short sleep to avoid forcing +readers to backtrack. + +This strategy permits compactions to proceed independently of updates. + +Each reftable (compacted or not) is uniquely identified by its name, so +open reftables can be cached by their name. + +Alternatives considered +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +bzip packed-refs +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +`bzip2` can significantly shrink a large packed-refs file (e.g. 62 MiB +compresses to 23 MiB, 37%). However the bzip format does not support +random access to a single reference. Readers must inflate and discard +while performing a linear scan. + +Breaking packed-refs into chunks (individually compressing each chunk) +would reduce the amount of data a reader must inflate, but still leaves +the problem of indexing chunks to support readers efficiently locating +the correct chunk. + +Given the compression achieved by reftable's encoding, it does not seem +necessary to add the complexity of bzip/gzip/zlib. + +Michael Haggerty's alternate format +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +Michael Haggerty proposed +link:https://lore.kernel.org/git/CAMy9T_HCnyc1g8XWOOWhe7nN0aEFyyBskV2aOMb_fe%2BwGvEJ7A%40mail.gmail.com/[an +alternate] format to reftable on the Git mailing list.
