Merge branch 'nd/diff-with-path-params' into maint

2016-02-05T22:54:15Z

A few options of "git diff" did not work well when the command was run from a subdirectory. * nd/diff-with-path-params: diff: make -O and --output work in subdirectory diff-no-index: do not take a redundant prefix argument

Merge branch 'tk/sigchain-unnecessary-post-tempfile'

2015-10-29T20:59:18Z

Remove no-longer used #include. * tk/sigchain-unnecessary-post-tempfile: shallow: remove unused #include "sigchain.h" read-cache: remove unused #include "sigchain.h" diff: remove unused #include "sigchain.h" credential-cache--daemon: remove unused #include "sigchain.h"

diff: remove unused #include "sigchain.h"

After switching to use the tempfile module in commit 284098f1 (diff: use tempfile module), no declarations from sigchain.h are used in diff.c anymore. Thus, remove the #include. Signed-off-by: Tobias Klauser Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

Merge branch 'jk/war-on-sprintf'

2015-10-20T22:24:01Z

Many allocations that is manually counted (correctly) that are followed by strcpy/sprintf have been replaced with a less error prone constructs such as xstrfmt. Macintosh-specific breakage was noticed and corrected in this reroll. * jk/war-on-sprintf: (70 commits) name-rev: use strip_suffix to avoid magic numbers use strbuf_complete to conditionally append slash fsck: use for_each_loose_file_in_objdir Makefile: drop D_INO_IN_DIRENT build knob fsck: drop inode-sorting code convert strncpy to memcpy notes: document length of fanout path with a constant color: add color_set helper for copying raw colors prefer memcpy to strcpy help: clean up kfmclient munging receive-pack: simplify keep_arg computation avoid sprintf and strcpy with flex arrays use alloc_ref rather than hand-allocating "struct ref" color: add overflow checks for parsing colors drop strcpy in favor of raw sha1_to_hex use sha1_to_hex_r() instead of strcpy daemon: use cld->env_array when re-spawning stat_tracking_info: convert to argv_array http-push: use an argv_array for setup_revisions fetch-pack: use argv_array for index-pack / unpack-objects ...

use sha1_to_hex_r() instead of strcpy

2015-10-05T18:08:05Z

Before sha1_to_hex_r() existed, a simple way to get hex sha1 into a buffer was with: strcpy(buf, sha1_to_hex(sha1)); This isn't wrong (assuming the buf is 41 characters), but it makes auditing the code base for bad strcpy() calls harder, as these become false positives. Let's convert them to sha1_to_hex_r(), and likewise for some calls to find_unique_abbrev(). While we're here, we'll double-check that all of the buffers are correctly sized, and use the more obvious GIT_SHA1_HEXSZ constant. Signed-off-by: Jeff King Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

react to errors in xdi_diff

2015-09-28T21:57:10Z

When we call into xdiff to perform a diff, we generally lose the return code completely. Typically by ignoring the return of our xdi_diff wrapper, but sometimes we even propagate that return value up and then ignore it later. This can lead to us silently producing incorrect diffs (e.g., "git log" might produce no output at all, not even a diff header, for a content-level diff). In practice this does not happen very often, because the typical reason for xdiff to report failure is that it malloc() failed (it uses straight malloc, and not our xmalloc wrapper). But it could also happen when xdiff triggers one our callbacks, which returns an error (e.g., outf() in builtin/rerere.c tries to report a write failure in this way). And the next patch also plans to add more failure modes. Let's notice an error return from xdiff and react appropriately. In most of the diff.c code, we can simply die(), which matches the surrounding code (e.g., that is what we do if we fail to load a file for diffing in the first place). This is not that elegant, but we are probably better off dying to let the user know there was a problem, rather than simply generating bogus output. We could also just die() directly in xdi_diff, but the callers typically have a bit more context, and can provide a better message (and if we do later decide to pass errors up, we're one step closer to doing so). There is one interesting case, which is in diff_grep(). Here if we cannot generate the diff, there is nothing to match, and we silently return "no hits". This is actually what the existing code does already, but we make it a little more explicit. Signed-off-by: Jeff King Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano
