use SWAP macro

2017-01-30T22:17:00Z

Apply the semantic patch swap.cocci to convert hand-rolled swaps to use the macro SWAP. The resulting code is shorter and easier to read, the object code is effectively unchanged. The patch for object.c had to be hand-edited in order to preserve the comment before the change; Coccinelle tried to eat it for some reason. Signed-off-by: Rene Scharfe Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

link_alt_odb_entry: handle normalize_path errors

2016-10-10T20:52:36Z

When we add a new alternate to the list, we try to normalize out any redundant "..", etc. However, we do not look at the return value of normalize_path_copy(), and will happily continue with a path that could not be normalized. Worse, the normalizing process is done in-place, so we are left with whatever half-finished working state the normalizing function was in. Fortunately, this cannot cause us to read past the end of our buffer, as that working state will always leave the NUL from the original path in place. And we do tend to notice problems when we check is_directory() on the path. But you can see the nonsense that we feed to is_directory with an entry like: this/../../is/../../way/../../too/../../deep/../../to/../../resolve in your objects/info/alternates, which yields: error: object directory /to/e/deep/too/way//ects/this/../../is/../../way/../../too/../../deep/../../to/../../resolve does not exist; check .git/objects/info/alternates. We can easily fix this just by checking the return value. But that makes it hard to generate a good error message, since we're normalizing in-place and our input value has been overwritten by cruft. Instead, let's provide a strbuf helper that does an in-place normalize, but restores the original contents on error. This uses a second buffer under the hood, which is slightly less efficient, but this is not a performance-critical code path. The strbuf helper can also properly set the "len" parameter of the strbuf before returning. Just doing: normalize_path_copy(buf.buf, buf.buf); will shorten the string, but leave buf.len at the original length. That may be confusing to later code which uses the strbuf.

strbuf: avoid calling strbuf_grow() twice in strbuf_addbuf()

2016-07-22T16:22:26Z

Implement strbuf_addbuf() as a normal function in order to avoid calling strbuf_grow() twice, with the second callinside strbud_add() being a no-op. This is slightly faster and also reduces the text size a bit. Signed-off-by: Rene Scharfe Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

Merge branch 'sb/submodule-parallel-update'

2016-04-06T18:39:01Z

A major part of "git submodule update" has been ported to C to take advantage of the recently added framework to run download tasks in parallel. * sb/submodule-parallel-update: clone: allow an explicit argument for parallel submodule clones submodule update: expose parallelism to the user submodule helper: remove double 'fatal: ' prefix git submodule update: have a dedicated helper for cloning run_processes_parallel: rename parameters for the callbacks run_processes_parallel: treat output of children as byte array submodule update: direct error message to stderr fetching submodules: respect `submodule.fetchJobs` config option submodule-config: drop check against NULL submodule-config: keep update strategy around

run_processes_parallel: treat output of children as byte array

2016-03-01T19:57:19Z

We do not want the output to be interrupted by a NUL byte, so we cannot use raw fputs. Introduce strbuf_write to avoid having long arguments in run-command.c. Reviewed-by: Jonathan Nieder Signed-off-by: Stefan Beller Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

Merge branch 'jc/strbuf-getline'

The preliminary clean-up for jc/peace-with-crlf topic. * jc/strbuf-getline: strbuf: give strbuf_getline() to the "most text friendly" variant checkout-index: there are only two possible line terminations update-index: there are only two possible line terminations check-ignore: there are only two possible line terminations check-attr: there are only two possible line terminations mktree: there are only two possible line terminations strbuf: introduce strbuf_getline_{lf,nul}() strbuf: make strbuf_getline_crlf() global strbuf: miniscule style fix

strbuf: give strbuf_getline() to the "most text friendly" variant

2016-01-15T18:23:57Z

Now there is no direct caller to strbuf_getline(), we can demote it to file-scope static that is private to strbuf.c and rename it to strbuf_getdelim(). Rename strbuf_getline_crlf(), which is designed to be the most "text friendly" variant, and allow it to take over this simplest name, strbuf_getline(), so we can add more uses of it without having to type _crlf over and over again in the coming steps.
