Merge branch 'ls/checkout-encoding'

2018-05-08T06:59:22Z

The new "checkout-encoding" attribute can ask Git to convert the contents to the specified encoding when checking out to the working tree (and the other way around when checking in). * ls/checkout-encoding: convert: add round trip check based on 'core.checkRoundtripEncoding' convert: add tracing for 'working-tree-encoding' attribute convert: check for detectable errors in UTF encodings convert: add 'working-tree-encoding' attribute utf8: add function to detect a missing UTF-16/32 BOM utf8: add function to detect prohibited UTF-16/32 BOM utf8: teach same_encoding() alternative UTF encoding names strbuf: add a case insensitive starts_with() strbuf: add xstrdup_toupper() strbuf: remove unnecessary NUL assignment in xstrdup_tolower()

convert: add round trip check based on 'core.checkRoundtripEncoding'

2018-04-16T02:40:56Z

UTF supports lossless conversion round tripping and conversions between UTF and other encodings are mostly round trip safe as Unicode aims to be a superset of all other character encodings. However, certain encodings (e.g. SHIFT-JIS) are known to have round trip issues [1]. Add 'core.checkRoundtripEncoding', which contains a comma separated list of encodings, to define for what encodings Git should check the conversion round trip if they are used in the 'working-tree-encoding' attribute. Set SHIFT-JIS as default value for 'core.checkRoundtripEncoding'.

convert: add 'working-tree-encoding' attribute

2018-04-16T02:40:56Z

Git recognizes files encoded with ASCII or one of its supersets (e.g. UTF-8 or ISO-8859-1) as text files. All other encodings are usually interpreted as binary and consequently built-in Git text processing tools (e.g. 'git diff') as well as most Git web front ends do not visualize the content. Add an attribute to tell Git what encoding the user has defined for a given file. If the content is added to the index, then Git reencodes the content to a canonical UTF-8 representation. On checkout Git will reverse this operation. Signed-off-by: Lars Schneider Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

convert: convert to struct object_id

2018-03-14T16:23:50Z

Convert convert.c to struct object_id. Add a use of the_hash_algo to replace hard-coded constants and change a strbuf_add to a strbuf_addstr to avoid another hard-coded constant. Note that a strict conversion using the hexsz constant would cause problems in the future if the internal and user-visible hash algorithms differed, as anticipated by the hash function transition plan.

convert_to_git(): safe_crlf/checksafe becomes int conv_flags

2018-01-16T20:35:56Z

When calling convert_to_git(), the checksafe parameter defined what should happen if the EOL conversion (CRLF --> LF --> CRLF) does not roundtrip cleanly. In addition, it also defined if line endings should be renormalized (CRLF --> LF) or kept as they are. checksafe was an safe_crlf enum with these values: SAFE_CRLF_FALSE: do nothing in case of EOL roundtrip errors SAFE_CRLF_FAIL: die in case of EOL roundtrip errors SAFE_CRLF_WARN: print a warning in case of EOL roundtrip errors SAFE_CRLF_RENORMALIZE: change CRLF to LF SAFE_CRLF_KEEP_CRLF: keep all line endings as they are In some cases the integer value 0 was passed as checksafe parameter instead of the correct enum value SAFE_CRLF_FALSE. That was no problem because SAFE_CRLF_FALSE is defined as 0. FALSE/FAIL/WARN are different from RENORMALIZE and KEEP_CRLF. Therefore, an enum is not ideal. Let's use a integer bit pattern instead and rename the parameter to conv_flags to make it more generically usable. This allows us to extend the bit pattern in a subsequent commit.

Merge branch 'tb/apply-with-crlf'

2017-08-27T05:55:05Z

"git apply" that is used as a better "patch -p1" failed to apply a taken from a file with CRLF line endings to a file with CRLF line endings. The root cause was because it misused convert_to_git() that tried to do "safe-crlf" processing by looking at the index entry at the same path, which is a nonsense---in that mode, "apply" is not working on the data in (or derived from) the index at all. This has been fixed. * tb/apply-with-crlf: apply: file commited with CRLF should roundtrip diff and apply convert: add SAFE_CRLF_KEEP_CRLF

convert: add SAFE_CRLF_KEEP_CRLF

2017-08-16T17:21:17Z

When convert_to_git() is called, the caller may want to keep CRLF to be kept as CRLF (and not converted into LF). This will be used in the next commit, when apply works with files that have CRLF and patches are applied onto these files. Add the new value "SAFE_CRLF_KEEP_CRLF" to safe_crlf. Prepare convert_to_git() to be able to run the clean filter, skip the CRLF conversion and run the ident filter. Signed-off-by: Torsten Bögershausen Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

Merge branch 'ls/filter-process-delayed'

2017-08-11T20:27:00Z

The filter-process interface learned to allow a process with long latency give a "delayed" response. * ls/filter-process-delayed: convert: add "status=delayed" to filter process protocol convert: refactor capabilities negotiation convert: move multiple file filter error handling to separate function convert: put the flags field before the flag itself for consistent style t0021: write "OUT " only on success t0021: make debug log file name configurable t0021: keep filter log files on comparison

convert: add "status=delayed" to filter process protocol

2017-06-30T20:50:41Z

Some `clean` / `smudge` filters may require a significant amount of time to process a single blob (e.g. the Git LFS smudge filter might perform network requests). During this process the Git checkout operation is blocked and Git needs to wait until the filter is done to continue with the checkout. Teach the filter process protocol, introduced in edcc8581 ("convert: add filter..process option", 2016-10-16), to accept the status "delayed" as response to a filter request. Upon this response Git continues with the checkout operation. After the checkout operation Git calls "finish_delayed_checkout" which queries the filter for remaining blobs. If the filter is still working on the completion, then the filter is expected to block. If the filter has completed all remaining blobs then an empty response is expected. Git has a multiple code paths that checkout a blob. Support delayed checkouts only in `clone` (in unpack-trees.c) and `checkout` operations for now. The optimization is most effective in these code paths as all files of the tree are processed. Signed-off-by: Lars Schneider Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano
