git/refs, branch v2.18.2

Merge branch 'js/use-bug-macro'

2018-05-30T05:04:07Z

Developer support update, by using BUG() macro instead of die() to mark codepaths that should not happen more clearly. * js/use-bug-macro: BUG_exit_code: fix sparse "symbol not declared" warning Convert remaining die*(BUG) messages Replace all die("BUG: ...") calls by BUG() ones run-command: use BUG() to report bugs, not die() test-tool: help verifying BUG() code paths

Merge branch 'ma/lockfile-cleanup'

2018-05-30T05:04:05Z

Code clean-up to adjust to a more recent lockfile API convention that allows lockfile instances kept on the stack. * ma/lockfile-cleanup: lock_file: move static locks into functions lock_file: make function-local locks non-static refs.c: do not die if locking fails in `delete_pseudoref()` refs.c: do not die if locking fails in `write_pseudoref()` t/helper/test-write-cache: clean up lock-handling

lock_file: make function-local locks non-static

2018-05-10T05:54:45Z

Placing `struct lock_file`s on the stack used to be a bad idea, because the temp- and lockfile-machinery would keep a pointer into the struct. But after 076aa2cbd (tempfile: auto-allocate tempfiles on heap, 2017-09-05), we can safely have lockfiles on the stack. (This applies even if a user returns early, leaving a locked lock behind.) These `struct lock_file`s are local to their respective functions and we can drop their staticness. For good measure, I have inspected these sites and come to believe that they always release the lock, with the possible exception of bailing out using `die()` or `exit()` or by returning from a `cmd_foo()`. As pointed out by Jeff King, it would be bad if someone held on to a `struct lock_file *` for some reason. After some grepping, I agree with his findings: no-one appears to be doing that.

Merge branch 'sb/object-store-replace'

2018-05-08T06:59:21Z

The effort to pass the repository in-core structure throughout the API continues. This round deals with the code that implements the refs/replace/ mechanism. * sb/object-store-replace: replace-object: allow lookup_replace_object to handle arbitrary repositories replace-object: allow do_lookup_replace_object to handle arbitrary repositories replace-object: allow prepare_replace_object to handle arbitrary repositories refs: allow for_each_replace_ref to handle arbitrary repositories refs: store the main ref store inside the repository struct replace-object: add repository argument to lookup_replace_object replace-object: add repository argument to do_lookup_replace_object replace-object: add repository argument to prepare_replace_object refs: add repository argument to for_each_replace_ref refs: add repository argument to get_main_ref_store replace-object: check_replace_refs is safe in multi repo environment replace-object: eliminate replace objects prepared flag object-store: move lookup_replace_object to replace-object.h replace-object: move replace_map to object store replace_object: use oidmap

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

refs: store the main ref store inside the repository struct

2018-04-12T02:38:56Z

This moves the 'main_ref_store', which was a global variable in refs.c into the repository struct. This patch does not deal with the parts in the refs subsystem which deal with the submodules there. A later patch needs to get rid of the submodule exposure in the refs API, such as 'get_submodule_ref_store(path)'.

refs: use chdir_notify to update cached relative paths

2018-03-30T19:50:03Z

Commit f57f37e2e1 (files-backend: remove the use of git_path(), 2017-03-26) introduced a regression when a relative $GIT_DIR is used in a working tree: - when we initialize the ref backend, we make a copy of get_git_dir(), which may be relative - later, we may call setup_work_tree() and chdir to the root of the working tree - further calls to the ref code will use the stored git directory, but relative paths will now point to the wrong place The new test in t1501 demonstrates one such instance (the bug causes us to write the ref update to the nonsense "relative/relative/.git"). Since setup_work_tree() now uses chdir_notify, we can just ask it update our relative paths when necessary.

Merge branch 'kg/packed-ref-cache-fix'

2018-02-15T22:55:42Z

Avoid mmapping small files while using packed refs (especially ones with zero size, which would cause later munmap() to fail). * kg/packed-ref-cache-fix: packed_ref_cache: don't use mmap() for small files load_contents(): don't try to mmap an empty file packed_ref_iterator_begin(): make optimization more general find_reference_location(): make function safe for empty snapshots create_snapshot(): use `xmemdupz()` rather than a strbuf struct snapshot: store `start` rather than `header_len`

Merge branch 'sg/cocci-move-array'

2018-02-13T21:39:13Z

Code clean-up. * sg/cocci-move-array: Use MOVE_ARRAY

Merge branch 'mr/packed-ref-store-fix'

2018-02-13T21:39:11Z

Crash fix for a corner case where an error codepath tried to unlock what it did not acquire lock on. * mr/packed-ref-store-fix: files_initial_transaction_commit(): only unlock if locked
