fetch-pack: refactor parsing in get_ack

2014-06-20T17:45:19Z

There are several uses of the magic number "line+45" when parsing ACK lines from the server, and it's rather unclear why 45 is the correct number. We can make this more clear by keeping a running pointer as we parse, using skip_prefix to jump past the first "ACK ", then adding 40 to jump past get_sha1_hex (which is still magical, but hopefully 40 is less magical to readers of git code). Note that this actually puts us at line+44. The original required some character between the sha1 and further ACK flags (it is supposed to be a space, but we never enforced that). We start our search for flags at line+44, which meanas we are slightly more liberal than the old code. Signed-off-by: Jeff King Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

use skip_prefix to avoid magic numbers

2014-06-20T17:44:45Z

It's a common idiom to match a prefix and then skip past it with a magic number, like: if (starts_with(foo, "bar")) foo += 3; This is easy to get wrong, since you have to count the prefix string yourself, and there's no compiler check if the string changes. We can use skip_prefix to avoid the magic numbers here. Note that some of these conversions could be much shorter. For example: if (starts_with(arg, "--foo=")) { bar = arg + 6; continue; } could become: if (skip_prefix(arg, "--foo=", &bar)) continue; However, I have left it as: if (skip_prefix(arg, "--foo=", &v)) { bar = v; continue; } to visually match nearby cases which need to actually process the string. Like: if (skip_prefix(arg, "--foo=", &v)) { bar = atoi(v); continue; } Signed-off-by: Jeff King Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

Use starts_with() for C strings instead of memcmp()

2014-06-09T21:38:12Z

Convert three cases of checking for a constant prefix using memcmp() to starts_with(). This way there is no need for magic string length constants and we avoid running over the end of the string should it be shorter than the prefix. Signed-off-by: Rene Scharfe Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

object.h: centralize object flag allocation

2014-03-25T22:09:24Z

While the field "flags" is mainly used by the revision walker, it is also used in many other places. Centralize the whole flag allocation to one place for a better overview (and easier to move flags if we have too). Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

Merge branch 'jk/shallow-update-fix'

2014-03-21T19:33:29Z

Serving objects from a shallow repository needs to write a new file to hold the temporary shallow boundaries but it was not cleaned when we exit due to die() or a signal. * jk/shallow-update-fix: shallow: verify shallow file after taking lock shallow: automatically clean up shallow tempfiles shallow: use stat_validity to check for up-to-date file

shallow: automatically clean up shallow tempfiles

2014-02-27T20:07:13Z

We sometimes write tempfiles of the form "shallow_XXXXXX" during fetch/push operations with shallow repositories. Under normal circumstances, we clean up the result when we are done. However, we do no take steps to clean up after ourselves when we exit due to die() or signal death. This patch teaches the tempfile creation code to register handlers to clean up after ourselves. To handle this, we change the ownership semantics of the filename returned by setup_temporary_shallow. It now keeps a copy of the filename itself, and returns only a const pointer to it. We can also do away with explicit tempfile removal in the callers. They all exit not long after finishing with the file, so they can rely on the auto-cleanup, simplifying the code. Note that we keep things simple and maintain only a single filename to be cleaned. This is sufficient for the current caller, but we future-proof it with a die("BUG").

fetch-pack: fix deepen shallow over smart http with no-done cap

2014-02-10T18:21:33Z

In smart http, upload-pack adds new shallow lines at the beginning of each rpc response. Only shallow lines from the first rpc call are useful. After that they are thrown away. It's designed this way because upload-pack is stateless and has no idea when its shallow lines are helpful or not. So after refs are negotiated with multi_ack_detailed and the server thinks it learned enough, it sends "ACK obj-id ready", terminates the rpc call and waits for the final rpc round. The client sends "done". The server sends another response, which also has shallow lines at the beginning, and the last "ACK obj-id" line. When no-done is active, the last round is cut out, the server sends "ACK obj-id ready" and "ACK obj-id" in the same rpc response. fetch-pack is updated to recognize this and not send "done". However it still tries to consume shallow lines, which are never sent. Update the code, make sure to skip consuming shallow lines when no-done is enabled.

Merge branch 'jk/allow-fetch-onelevel-refname'

2014-01-27T18:44:14Z

"git clone" would fail to clone from a repository that has a ref directly under "refs/", e.g. "refs/stash", because different validation paths do different things on such a refname. Loosen the client side's validation to allow such a ref. * jk/allow-fetch-onelevel-refname: fetch-pack: do not filter out one-level refs
