introduce fetch-object: fetch one promisor object

2017-12-05T17:46:05Z

Introduce fetch-object, providing the ability to fetch one object from a promisor remote. This uses fetch-pack. To do this, the transport mechanism has been updated with 2 flags, "from-promisor" to indicate that the resulting pack comes from a promisor remote (and thus should be annotated as such by index-pack), and "no-dependents" to indicate that only the objects themselves need to be fetched (but fetching additional objects is nevertheless safe). Whenever "no-dependents" is used, fetch-pack will refrain from using any object flags, because it is most likely invoked as part of a dynamic object fetch by another Git command (which may itself use object flags). An alternative to this is to leave fetch-pack alone, and instead update the allocation of flags so that fetch-pack's flags never overlap with any others, but this will end up shrinking the number of flags available to nearly every other Git command (that is, every Git command that accesses objects), so the approach in this commit was used instead. This will be tested in a subsequent commit. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Tan Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

Rename sha1_array to oid_array

2017-03-31T15:33:56Z

Since this structure handles an array of object IDs, rename it to struct oid_array. Also rename the accessor functions and the initialization constant. This commit was produced mechanically by providing non-Documentation files to the following Perl one-liners: perl -pi -E 's/struct sha1_array/struct oid_array/g' perl -pi -E 's/\bsha1_array_/oid_array_/g' perl -pi -E 's/SHA1_ARRAY_INIT/OID_ARRAY_INIT/g' Signed-off-by: brian m. carlson Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

fetch-pack: move code to report unmatched refs to a function

2017-03-02T19:12:53Z

Prepare to reuse this code in transport.c for "git fetch". While we're here, internationalize the existing error message. Signed-off-by: Matt McCutchen Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

fetch, upload-pack: --deepen=N extends shallow boundary by N commits

2016-06-13T21:38:16Z

In git-fetch, --depth argument is always relative with the latest remote refs. This makes it a bit difficult to cover this use case, where the user wants to make the shallow history, say 3 levels deeper. It would work if remote refs have not moved yet, but nobody can guarantee that, especially when that use case is performed a couple months after the last clone or "git fetch --depth". Also, modifying shallow boundary using --depth does not work well with clones created by --since or --not. This patch fixes that. A new argument --deepen= will add more (*) parent commits to the current history regardless of where remote refs are. Have/Want negotiation is still respected. So if remote refs move, the server will send two chunks: one between "have" and "want" and another to extend shallow history. In theory, the client could send no "want"s in order to get the second chunk only. But the protocol does not allow that. Either you send no want lines, which means ls-remote; or you have to send at least one want line that carries deep-relative to the server.. The main work was done by Dongcan Jiang. I fixed it up here and there. And of course all the bugs belong to me. (*) We could even support --deepen= where is negative. In that case we can cut some history from the shallow clone. This operation (and --depth=) does not require interaction with remote side (and more complicated to implement as a result).

fetch-pack: use a separate flag for fetch in deepening mode

2016-06-13T21:38:16Z

The shallow repo could be deepened or shortened when then user gives --depth. But in future that won't be the only way to deepen/shorten a repo. Stop relying on args->depth in this mode. Future deepening methods can simply set this flag on instead of updating all these if expressions. The new name "deepen" was chosen after the command to define shallow boundary in pack protocol. New commands also follow this tradition. Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

Merge branch 'nd/shallow-clone'

2014-01-17T20:21:20Z

Fetching from a shallow-cloned repository used to be forbidden, primarily because the codepaths involved were not carefully vetted and we did not bother supporting such usage. This attempts to allow object transfer out of a shallow-cloned repository in a controlled way (i.e. the receiver become a shallow repository with truncated history). * nd/shallow-clone: (31 commits) t5537: fix incorrect expectation in test case 10 shallow: remove unused code send-pack.c: mark a file-local function static git-clone.txt: remove shallow clone limitations prune: clean .git/shallow after pruning objects clone: use git protocol for cloning shallow repo locally send-pack: support pushing from a shallow clone via http receive-pack: support pushing to a shallow clone via http smart-http: support shallow fetch/clone remote-curl: pass ref SHA-1 to fetch-pack as well send-pack: support pushing to a shallow clone receive-pack: allow pushes that update .git/shallow connected.c: add new variant that runs with --shallow-file add GIT_SHALLOW_FILE to propagate --shallow-file to subprocesses receive/send-pack: support pushing from a shallow clone receive-pack: reorder some code in unpack() fetch: add --update-shallow to accept refs that update .git/shallow upload-pack: make sure deepening preserves shallow roots fetch: support fetching from a shallow repository clone: support remote shallow repository ...

fetch: add --update-shallow to accept refs that update .git/shallow

2013-12-11T00:14:17Z

The same steps are done as in when --update-shallow is not given. The only difference is we now add all shallow commits in "ours" and "theirs" to .git/shallow (aka "step 8"). Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano
