Merge branch 'jk/strvec'

2020-08-10T17:23:57Z

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. * jk/strvec: strvec: rename struct fields strvec: drop argv_array compatibility layer strvec: update documention to avoid argv_array strvec: fix indentation in renamed calls strvec: convert remaining callers away from argv_array name strvec: convert more callers away from argv_array name strvec: convert builtin/ callers away from argv_array name quote: rename sq_dequote_to_argv_array to mention strvec strvec: rename files from argv-array to strvec argv-array: rename to strvec argv-array: use size_t for count and alloc

strvec: convert more callers away from argv_array name

2020-07-28T22:02:18Z

We eventually want to drop the argv_array name and just use strvec consistently. There's no particular reason we have to do it all at once, or care about interactions between converted and unconverted bits. Because of our preprocessor compat layer, the names are interchangeable to the compiler (so even a definition and declaration using different names is OK). This patch converts remaining files from the first half of the alphabet, to keep the diff to a manageable size. The conversion was done purely mechanically with: git ls-files '*.c' '*.h' | xargs perl -i -pe ' s/ARGV_ARRAY/STRVEC/g; s/argv_array/strvec/g; ' and then selectively staging files with "git add '[abcdefghjkl]*'". We'll deal with any indentation/style fallouts separately. Signed-off-by: Jeff King Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

column: use utf8_strnwidth() to strip out ANSI color escapes

2019-10-15T01:54:15Z

Make use of utf8_strnwidth()'s feature to skip ANSI escape sequences instead of open-coding it. This shortens the code and makes it more consistent. This changes the behavior, though: The old code skips all kinds of Control Sequence Introducer sequences, while utf8_strnwidth() only skips the Select Graphic Rendition kind, i.e. those ending with "m". They are used for specifying color and font attributes like boldness. The only other kind of escape sequence we print in Git is Erase in Line, ending with "K". That's not used for columnar output, so this difference actually doesn't matter here. Signed-off-by: René Scharfe Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

column: drop unused "opts" parameter in item_length()

2019-01-24T20:35:44Z

There are no column options which impact the length computation. In theory there might be, but this is a file-local function, so it will be trivial to re-add the parameter should it ever be useful. Signed-off-by: Jeff King Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

Replace all die("BUG: ...") calls by BUG() ones

2018-05-06T10:06:13Z

In d8193743e08 (usage.c: add BUG() function, 2017-05-12), a new macro was introduced to use for reporting bugs instead of die(). It was then subsequently used to convert one single caller in 588a538ae55 (setup_git_env: convert die("BUG") to BUG(), 2017-05-12). The cover letter of the patch series containing this patch (cf 20170513032414.mfrwabt4hovujde2@sigill.intra.peff.net) is not terribly clear why only one call site was converted, or what the plan is for other, similar calls to die() to report bugs. Let's just convert all remaining ones in one fell swoop. This trick was performed by this invocation: sed -i 's/die("BUG: /BUG("/g' $(git grep -l 'die("BUG' \*.c) Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

column: do not include pager.c

2017-10-24T01:19:06Z

Everything this file needs from the pager API (e.g. term_columns(), pager_in_use()) is already declared in the header file it includes. Noticed-by: Jonathan Nieder Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

column: show auto columns when pager is active

2017-10-17T03:16:45Z

When columns are set to automatic for git tag and the output is paginated by git, the output is a single column instead of multiple columns. Standard behaviour in git is to honor auto values when the pager is active, which happens for example with commands like git log showing colors when being paged. Since ff1e72483 (tag: change default of `pager.tag` to "on", 2017-08-02), the pager has been enabled by default, exposing this problem to more people. finalize_colopts in column.c only checks whether the output is a TTY to determine if columns should be enabled with columns set to auto. Also check if the pager is active. Adding a test for git column is possible but requires some care to work around a race on stdin. See commit 18d8c2693 (test_terminal: redirect child process' stdin to a pty, 2015-08-04). Test git tag instead, since that does not involve stdin, and since that was the original motivation for this patch.

config: don't include config.h by default

Stop including config.h by default in cache.h. Instead only include config.h in those files which require use of the config system. Signed-off-by: Brandon Williams Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

use xmallocz to avoid size arithmetic

2016-02-22T22:51:09Z

We frequently allocate strings as xmalloc(len + 1), where the extra 1 is for the NUL terminator. This can be done more simply with xmallocz, which also checks for integer overflow. There's no case where switching xmalloc(n+1) to xmallocz(n) is wrong; the result is the same length, and malloc made no guarantees about what was in the buffer anyway. But in some cases, we can stop manually placing NUL at the end of the allocated buffer. But that's only safe if it's clear that the contents will always fill the buffer. In each case where this patch does so, I manually examined the control flow, and I tried to err on the side of caution. Signed-off-by: Jeff King Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano
