Merge branch 'jh/status-no-ahead-behind'

2018-03-08T20:36:24Z

"git status" can spend a lot of cycles to compute the relation between the current branch and its upstream, which can now be disabled with "--no-ahead-behind" option. * jh/status-no-ahead-behind: status: support --no-ahead-behind in long format status: update short status to respect --no-ahead-behind status: add --[no-]ahead-behind to status and commit for V2 format. stat_tracking_info: return +1 when branches not equal

Merge branch 'bw/c-plus-plus'

2018-03-06T22:54:07Z

Avoid using identifiers that clash with C++ keywords. Even though it is not a goal to compile Git with C++ compilers, changes like this help use of code analysis tools that targets C++ on our codebase. * bw/c-plus-plus: (37 commits) replace: rename 'new' variables trailer: rename 'template' variables tempfile: rename 'template' variables wrapper: rename 'template' variables environment: rename 'namespace' variables diff: rename 'template' variables environment: rename 'template' variables init-db: rename 'template' variables unpack-trees: rename 'new' variables trailer: rename 'new' variables submodule: rename 'new' variables split-index: rename 'new' variables remote: rename 'new' variables ref-filter: rename 'new' variables read-cache: rename 'new' variables line-log: rename 'new' variables imap-send: rename 'new' variables http: rename 'new' variables entry: rename 'new' variables diffcore-delta: rename 'new' variables ...

remote: rename 'new' variables

2018-02-22T18:08:05Z

Rename C++ keyword in order to bring the codebase closer to being able to be compiled with a C++ compiler. Signed-off-by: Brandon Williams Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

fetch: add a --prune-tags option and fetch.pruneTags config

2018-02-09T21:10:13Z

Add a --prune-tags option to git-fetch, along with fetch.pruneTags config option and a -P shorthand (-p is --prune). This allows for doing any of: git fetch -p -P git fetch --prune --prune-tags git fetch -p -P origin git fetch --prune --prune-tags origin Or simply: git config fetch.prune true && git config fetch.pruneTags true && git fetch Instead of the much more verbose: git fetch --prune origin 'refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*' '+refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*' Before this feature it was painful to support the use-case of pulling from a repo which is having both its branches *and* tags deleted regularly, and have our local references to reflect upstream. At work we create deployment tags in the repo for each rollout, and there's *lots* of those, so they're archived within weeks for performance reasons. Without this change it's hard to centrally configure such repos in /etc/gitconfig (on servers that are only used for working with them). You need to set fetch.prune=true globally, and then for each repo: git -C {} config --replace-all remote.origin.fetch "refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*" "^\+*refs/tags/\*:refs/tags/\*$" Now I can simply set fetch.pruneTags=true in /etc/gitconfig as well, and users running "git pull" will automatically get the pruning semantics I want. Even though "git remote" has corresponding "prune" and "update --prune" subcommands I'm intentionally not adding a corresponding prune-tags or "update --prune --prune-tags" mode to that command. It's advertised (as noted in my recent "git remote doc: correct dangerous lies about what prune does") as only modifying remote tracking references, whereas any --prune-tags option is always going to modify what from the user's perspective is a local copy of the tag, since there's no such thing as a remote tracking tag. Ideally add_prune_tags_to_fetch_refspec() would be something that would use ALLOC_GROW() to grow the 'fetch` member of the 'remote' struct. Instead I'm realloc-ing remote->fetch and adding the tag_refspec to the end. The reason is that parse_{fetch,push}_refspec which allocate the refspec (ultimately remote->fetch) struct are called many places that don't have access to a 'remote' struct. It would be hard to change all their callsites to be amenable to carry around the bookkeeping variables required for dynamic allocation. All the other callers of the API first incrementally construct the string version of the refspec in remote->fetch_refspec via add_fetch_refspec(), before finally calling parse_fetch_refspec() via some variation of remote_get(). It's less of a pain to deal with the one special case that needs to modify already constructed refspecs than to chase down and change all the other callsites. The API I'm adding is intentionally not generalized because if we add more of these we'd probably want to re-visit how this is done.

remote: add a macro for "refs/tags/:refs/tags/"

2018-02-09T21:10:12Z

Add a macro with the refspec string "refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*". There's been a pre-defined struct version of this since e0aaa29ff3 ("Have a constant extern refspec for "--tags"", 2008-04-17), but nothing that could be passed to e.g. add_fetch_refspec(). This will be used in subsequent commits to avoid hardcoding this string in multiple places. Signed-off-by: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

status: support --no-ahead-behind in long format

2018-01-24T21:48:39Z

Teach long (normal) status format to respect the --no-ahead-behind parameter and skip the possibly expensive ahead/behind computation between the branch and the upstream. Signed-off-by: Jeff Hostetler Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

status: add --[no-]ahead-behind to status and commit for V2 format.

2018-01-24T21:48:38Z

Teach "git status" and "git commit" to accept "--no-ahead-behind" and "--ahead-behind" arguments to request quick or full ahead/behind reporting. When "--no-ahead-behind" is given, the existing porcelain V2 line "branch.ab +x -y" is replaced with a new "branch.ab +? -?" line. This indicates that the branch and its upstream are or are not equal without the expense of computing the full ahead/behind values. Signed-off-by: Jeff Hostetler Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

stat_tracking_info: return +1 when branches not equal

2018-01-24T21:48:38Z

Extend stat_tracking_info() to return +1 when branches are not equal and to take a new "enum ahead_behind_flags" argument to allow skipping the (possibly expensive) ahead/behind computation. This will be used in the next commit to allow "git status" to avoid full ahead/behind calculations for performance reasons. Signed-off-by: Jeff Hostetler Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

Merge branch 'js/for-each-ref-remote-name-and-ref'

2017-11-15T03:14:32Z

The "--format=..." option "git for-each-ref" takes learned to show the name of the 'remote' repository and the ref at the remote side that is affected for 'upstream' and 'push' via "%(push:remotename)" and friends. * js/for-each-ref-remote-name-and-ref: for-each-ref: test :remotename and :remoteref for-each-ref: let upstream/push report the remote ref name for-each-ref: let upstream/push optionally report the remote name

for-each-ref: let upstream/push report the remote ref name

2017-11-08T01:18:23Z

There are times when scripts want to know not only the name of the push branch on the remote, but also the name of the branch as known by the remote repository. An example of this is when a tool wants to push to the very same branch from which it would pull automatically, i.e. the `` and the `` in `git push :` would be provided by `%(upstream:remotename)` and `%(upstream:remoteref)`, respectively. This patch offers the new suffix :remoteref for the `upstream` and `push` atoms, allowing to show exactly that. Example: $ cat .git/config ... [remote "origin"] url = https://where.do.we.come/from fetch = refs/heads/*:refs/remote/origin/* [branch "master"] remote = origin merge = refs/heads/master [branch "develop/with/topics"] remote = origin merge = refs/heads/develop/with/topics ... $ git for-each-ref \ --format='%(push) %(push:remoteref)' \ refs/heads refs/remotes/origin/master refs/heads/master refs/remotes/origin/develop/with/topics refs/heads/develop/with/topics Signed-off-by: J Wyman Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano
