2025-09-22revision: retain argv NULL invariant in setup_revisions()Jeff King1-0/+6
In an argc/argv pair, the entry for argv[argc] is generally NULL. You can iterate by counting up to argc, or by looking for the NULL entry in argv. When we pass such a pair to setup_revisions(), it shrinks argc to account for the options we consumed and returns the result to the caller. But it doesn't touch the entries after the reduced argc. So argv[argc] will be left pointing at some arbitrary entry rather than NULL. This isn't the source of any known bugs, since all callers are aware of the limitation and act accordingly. But it's a possible gotcha that may be easy to miss. Let's set the new argv[argc] to NULL, taking care to free it if the caller asked us to do so. It is tempting to do likewise for all of the entries afterwards, too, as some of them may also need to be freed (e.g., if coming from a strvec). But doing so isn't entirely trivial, as we munge argc in the function (e.g., when we find "--" and move all of the entries after it into the prune_data list). It would be possible with some light refactoring, but it's probably not worth it. Nobody should ever look at them (they are beyond the revised argc and past the NULL argv entry) outside of strvec cleanup, and setup_revisions_from_strvec() already handles this case. There's one other interesting gotcha: many callers which do not want to provide arguments just pass 0/NULL for argc/argv. We need to check for this case before assigning the final NULL.

2025-09-22revision: add wrapper to setup_revisions() from a strvecJeff King1-0/+19
The setup_revisions() function was designed to take the argc/argv pair from the operating system. But we sometimes construct our own argv using a strvec and pass that in. There are a few gotchas that callers need to deal with here: 1. You should always pass the free_removed_argv_elements option via setup_revision_opt. Otherwise, entries may be leaked if setup_revisions() re-shuffles options. 2. After setup_revisions() returns, the strvec state is odd. We get a reduced argc from setup_revisions() telling us how many unknown options were left in place. Entries after that in argv may be retained, or may be NULL (depending on how the reshuffling happened). But the strvec's "nr" field still represents the original value, and some of the entries it thinks it is still storing may be NULL. Callers must be careful with how they access it. Some callers deal with (1), but not all. In practice they are OK because they do not pass any options that would cause setup_revisions() to re-shuffle (namely unknown options which may be relayed from the user, and the use of the "--" separator). But it's probably a good idea to consistently pass this option anyway to future-proof ourselves against the details of setup_revisions() changing. No callers address (2), though I don't think there any visible bugs. Most of them simply call strvec_clear() and never otherwise look at the result. And in fact, if they naively set foo.nr to the argc returned by setup_revisions(), that would cause leaks! Because setup_revisions() does not free consumed options[1], we have to leave the "nr" field of the strvec at its original value to find and free them during strvec_clear(). So I don't think there are any bugs to fix here, but we can make things safer and simpler for callers. Let's introduce a helper function that sets the free_removed_argv_elements automatically and shrinks the strvec to represent the retained options afterwards (taking care to free the now-obsolete entries). We'll start by converting all of the call-sites which use the free_removed_argv_elements option. There should be no behavior change for them, except that their "shrunken" entries are cleaned up immediately, rather than waiting for a strvec_clear() call. [1] Arguably setup_revisions() should be doing this step for us if we told it to free removed options, but there are many existing callers which will be broken if it did. Introducing this helper is a possible first step towards that. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2025-09-22revision: manage memory ownership of argv in setup_revisions()Jeff King1-3/+21
The setup_revisions() function takes an argc/argv pair and consumes arguments from it, returning a reduced argc count to the caller. But it may also overwrite entries within the argv array, as it shifts unknown options to the front of argv (so they can be found in the range of 0..argc-1 after we return). For a normal argc/argv coming from the operating system, this is OK. We don't need to worry about memory ownership of the strings in those entries. But some callers pass in allocated strings from a strvec, and we do need to care about those. We faced a similar issue in f92dbdbc6a (revisions API: don't leak memory on argv elements that need free()-ing, 2022-08-02), which added an option for callers to tell us that elements need to be freed. But the implementation within setup_revisions() was incomplete. It only covered the case of dropping "--", but not the movement of unknown options. When we shift argv entries around, we should free the elements we are about to overwrite, so they are not leaked. For example, in: git stash show -p --invalid we will pass this to setup_revisions(): argc = 3, argv[] = { "show", "-p", "--invalid", NULL } which will then return: argc = 2, argv[] = { "show", "--invalid", "--invalid", NULL } overwriting the "-p" entry, which is leaked unless we free it at that moment. You can see in the output above another potential problem. We now have two copies of the "--invalid" string. If the caller does not respect the new argc when free-ing the strings via strvec_clear(), we'll get a double-free. And git-stash suffers from this, and will crash with the above command. So it seems at first glance that the solution is to just assign the reduced argc to the strvec.nr field in the caller. Then it would stop after freeing only any copied entries. But that's not always right either! Remember that we are reducing "argc" to account for elements we've consumed. So if there isn't an invalid option, we'd turn: argc = 2, argv[] = { "show", "-p", NULL } into: argc = 1, argv[] = { "show", "-p", NULL } In that case strvec_clear() must keep looking past the shortened argc we return to find the original "-p" to free. It needs to use the original argc to do that. We can solve this by turning our argv writes into strict moves, not copies. When we shuffle an unknown option to the front, we'll overwrite its old position with NULL. That leaves an argv array that may have NULL "holes" in it. So in the "--invalid" example above we get: argc = 2, argv[] = { "show", "--invalid", NULL, NULL } but something like "git stash -p --invalid -p" would yield: argc = 3, argv[] = { "show", "--invalid", NULL, "-p", NULL } because we move "--invalid" to overwrite the first "-p", but the second one is quietly consumed. But strvec_clear() can handle that fine (it iterates over the "nr" field, and passing NULL to free() is OK). To ease the implementation, I've introduced a helper function. It's a little hacky because it must take a double-pointer to set the old position to NULL. Which in turn means we cannot pass "&arg", our local alias for the current entry we're parsing, but instead "&argv[i]", the pointer in the original array. And to make it even more confusing, we delegate some of this work to handle_revision_opt(), which is passed a subset of the argv array, so is always working on "&argv[0]". Likewise, because handle_revision_opt() only receives the part of argv left to parse, it receives the array to accumulate unknown options as a separate unkc/unkv pair. But we're always working on the same argv array, so our strategy works fine. I suspect this would be a bit more obvious (and avoid some pointer cleverness) if all functions saw the full argv array and worked with positions within it (and our new helper would take two positions, a src and dst). But that would involve refactoring handle_revision_opt(). I punted on that, as what's here is not too ugly and is all contained within revision.c itself. The new test demonstrates that "git stash show -p --invalid" no longer crashes with a double-free (because we move instead of copy). And it passes with SANITIZE=leak because we free "-p" before overwriting. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2025-09-04revision: drop explicit check for commit graphPatrick Steinhardt1-3/+0
When filtering down revisions by paths we know to use bloom filters from the commit graph, if we have any. The entry point for this is in `check_maybe_different_in_bloom_filter()`, where we first verify that: - We do have a commit graph. - That the commit is contained therein by checking that we have a proper generation number. - And that the graph contains a bloom filter. The first check is somewhat redundant though: if we don't have a commit graph, then the second check would already tell us that we don't have a generation number for the specific commit. In theory this could be seen as a performance optimization to short-circuit for scenarios where there is no commit graph. But in practice this shouldn't matter: if there is no commit graph, then the commit graph data slab would also be unpopulated and thus a lookup of the commit should happen in constant time.

2025-08-11bloom: enable bloom filter with wildcard pathspec in revision traversalLidong Yan1-13/+29
When traversing commits, a pathspec item can be used to limit the traversal to commits that modify the specified paths. And the commit-graph includes a Bloom filter to exclude commits that definitely did not modify a given pathspec item. During commit traversal, the Bloom filter can significantly improve performance. However, it is disabled if the specified pathspec item contains wildcard characters or magic signatures. For performance reason, enable Bloom filter even if a pathspec item contains wildcard characters by filtering only the non-wildcard part of the pathspec item. The function of pathspec magic signature is generally to narrow down the path specified by the pathspecs. So, enable Bloom filter when the magic signature is "top", "glob", "attr", "--depth" or "literal". "exclude" is used to select paths other than the specified path, rather than serving as a filtering function, so it cannot be used together with the Bloom filter. Since Bloom filter is not case insensitive even in case insensitive system (e.g. MacOS), it cannot be used together with "icase" magic. With this optimization, we get some improvements for pathspecs with wildcards or magic signatures.

2025-08-06refs: pass refname when invoking reflog entry callbackPatrick Steinhardt1-1/+2
With `refs_for_each_reflog_ent()` callers can iterate through all the reflog entries for a given reference. The callback that is being invoked for each such entry does not receive the name of the reference that we are currently iterating through. This isn't really a limiting factor, as callers can simply pass the name via the callback data. But this layout sometimes does make for a bit of an awkward calling pattern. One example: when iterating through all reflogs, and for each reflog we iterate through all refnames, we have to do some extra book keeping to track which reference name we are currently yielding reflog entries for. Change the signature of the callback function so that the reference name of the reflog gets passed through to it. Adapt callers accordingly and start using the new parameter in trivial cases. The next commit will refactor the reference migration logic to make use of this parameter so that we can simplify its logic a bit.

In 036876a1067 (config: hide functions using `the_repository` by default, 2024-08-13) we have moved around a bunch of functions in the config subsystem that depend on `the_repository`. Those function have been converted into mere wrappers around their equivalent function that takes in a repository as parameter, and the intent was that we'll eventually remove those wrappers to make the dependency on the global repository variable explicit at the callsite. Follow through with that intent and remove `git_config()`. All callsites are adjusted so that they use `repo_config(the_repository, ...)` instead. While some callsites might already have a repository available, this mechanical conversion is the exact same as the current situation and thus cannot cause any regression.

2025-07-21revision: drop early output optionJeff King1-17/+0
We added the --early-output feature long ago in cdcefbc971 (Add "--early-output" log flag for interactive GUI use, 2007-11-03). The idea was that GUIs could use it to progressively render a history view, showing something quick-and-inaccurate at first and then enhancing it later. But we never documented it, and it appears never to have been used, even by the projects which initially expressed interest. There was an RFC patch for gitk to use it: http://public-inbox.org/git/18221.2285.259487.655684@cargo.ozlabs.ibm.com/ but it was never merged. Likewise QGit had a patch in: https://lore.kernel.org/git/e5bfff550711040225ne67c907r2023b1354c35f35@mail.gmail.com/ but it was never fully merged (to this day, QGit has a commented-out line to add "--early-output" to the "log" invocation). Searching for other mentions on the web or forges like github.com turns up nothing. Meanwhile, the feature has been broken off and on over the years without anybody noticing (and naturally, there are no tests, either). From 2011 to 2017 the option didn't even turn on via "--early-output"; this was fixed in e35b6ac56f (revision.h: turn rev_info.early_output back into an unsigned int, 2017-06-10). It worked for a while then, but it does not interact well at all with commit-graphs (which are turned on by default these days). The main logic to count early commits is triggered by limit_list(), which we traditionally invoked when showing output in topo-order (and --early-output always enables --topo-order). But that changed in f0d9cc4196 (revision.c: begin refactoring --topo-order logic, 2018-11-01). Now when we have generation numbers, we skip limit_list() entirely, and the early-output code shows no commits, and just the final header "Final output: 1 done". Which is syntactically OK, but semantically wrong: that message should give the total number of commits we're about to show. So let's drop the feature. It is extra code that is untested and undocumented, and makes working on the revision machinery more brittle. Given the history above, it seems unlikely that anybody is using it (or has used it), and we can drop it without the usual deprecation period. A gentler option might be to "soft" drop it: keep accepting the option, have it imply --topo-order as it does now, print "Final output: 1 done", and then do our regular traversal. That would keep any hypothetical caller working. But it doesn't seem worth the hassle to me. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2025-07-14bloom: replace struct bloom_key * with struct bloom_keyvecLidong Yan1-46/+30
Previously, we stored bloom keys in a flat array and marked a commit as NOT TREESAME if any key reported "definitely not changed". To support multiple pathspec items, we now require that for each pathspec item, there exists a bloom key reporting "definitely not changed". This "for every" condition makes a flat array insufficient, so we introduce a new structure to group keys by a single pathspec item. `struct bloom_keyvec` is introduced to replace `struct bloom_key *` and `bloom_key_nr`. And because we want to support multiple pathspec items, we added a bloom_keyvec * and a bloom_keyvec_nr field to `struct rev_info` to represent an array of bloom_keyvecs. This commit still optimize only one pathspec item, thus bloom_keyvec_nr can only be 0 or 1. New bloom_keyvec_* functions are added to create and destroy a keyvec. bloom_filter_contains_vec() is added to check if all key in keyvec is contained in a bloom filter.

2025-07-07setup_revisions(): turn on diffs for all-negative diff filterJeff King1-1/+1
When the user gives us a diff filter like --diff-filter=D, we need to do a tree diff even if we're not planning to show the diff result itself, in order to decide whether to show the commit at all. So there's an explicit check of revs->diffopt.filter in setup_revisions(), and we set revs->diff if any bits are set. Originally that "filter" field covered both positive capital-letter filters (like "D") and also negative lowercase filters (like "d"), so it was sufficient for both cases. But later, 75408ca949 (diff-filter: be more careful when looking for negative bits, 2022-01-28) split the negative bits out into a "filter_not" field. We eventually fold those into "filter", but not until diff_setup_done() is called, which happens after our explicit check. As a result, a purely negative filter like: git log --diff-filter=d failed to turn on diffs at all. But rather than fail to filter by diff, because the filter variable is eventually set, we mistakenly show no commits at all, thinking that the empty diffs were cases where nothing passed through the filter. The smallest fix here is to just have our check look for any bits in either "filter" or "filter_not". I suspect it would also be OK to reorder the function a bit to call diff_setup_done() earlier, but that risks violating some other subtle ordering dependency. So I went with the simple and safe solution here. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

Since parse_pathspec is not responsible to free prune, we should add `free(prune)` in the end of prepare_show_merge().

2025-04-15object-store: merge "object-store-ll.h" and "object-store.h"Patrick Steinhardt1-1/+1
The "object-store-ll.h" header has been introduced to keep transitive header dependendcies and compile times at bay. Now that we have created a new "object-store.c" file though we can easily move the last remaining additional bit of "object-store.h", the `odb_path_map`, out of the header. Do so. As the "object-store.h" header is now equivalent to its low-level alternative we drop the latter and inline it into the former.

2025-04-01revision: fix --left/right-only use with unrelated historiesMatt Hunter1-0/+2
This is a similar fix as 023756f4eb (revision walker: --cherry-pick is a limited operation), but for the --left-only and --right-only options. When computing a symmetric difference between two unrelated histories, no suitable merge base exists, and so no boundary commit is flagged as UNINTERESTING. Previously, we relied on the presence of such boundary to trigger limiting and thus consideration of either "revs->left_only" or "revs->right_only". A number of other entries in the option parser have started including overrides for "revs->limited = 1". Do the same for these options.

2025-03-21rev-list: inline `show_object_with_name()` in `show_object()`Justin Tobler1-8/+0
The `show_object_with_name()` function only has a single call site. Inline call to `show_object_with_name()` in `show_object()` so the explicit function can be cleaned up and live closer to where it is used. While at it, factor out the code that prints the OID and newline for both objects with and without a name. In a subsequent commit, `show_object()` is modified to support printing object information in a NUL-delimited format.

2025-03-10object: stop depending on `the_repository`Patrick Steinhardt1-1/+2
There are a couple of functions exposed by "object.c" that implicitly depend on `the_repository`. Remove this dependency by injecting the repository via a parameter. Adapt callers accordingly by simply using `the_repository`, except in cases where the subsystem is already free of the repository. In that case, we instead pass the repository provided by the caller's context. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2025-02-07worktree: return allocated string from `get_worktree_git_dir()`Patrick Steinhardt1-1/+6
The `get_worktree_git_dir()` function returns a string constant that does not need to be free'd by the caller. This string is computed for three different cases: - If we don't have a worktree we return a path into the Git directory. The returned string is owned by `the_repository`, so there is no need for the caller to free it. - If we have a worktree, but no worktree ID then the caller requests the main worktree. In this case we return a path into the common directory, which again is owned by `the_repository` and thus does not need to be free'd. - In the third case, where we have an actual worktree, we compute the path relative to "$GIT_COMMON_DIR/worktrees/". This string does not need to be released either, even though `git_common_path()` ends up allocating memory. But this doesn't result in a memory leak either because we write into a buffer returned by `get_pathname()`, which returns one out of four static buffers. We're about to drop `git_common_path()` in favor of `repo_common_path()`, which doesn't use the same mechanism but instead returns an allocated string owned by the caller. While we could adapt `get_worktree_git_dir()` to also use `get_pathname()` and print the derived common path into that buffer, the whole schema feels a lot like premature optimization in this context. There are some callsites where we call `get_worktree_git_dir()` in a loop that iterates through all worktrees. But none of these loops seem to be even remotely in the hot path, so saving a single allocation there does not feel worth it. Refactor the function to instead consistently return an allocated path so that we can start using `repo_common_path()` in a subsequent commit.

2024-11-21bisect: fix leaking good/bad terms when reading multipe timesPatrick Steinhardt1-2/+2
Even though `read_bisect_terms()` is declared as assigning string constants, it in fact assigns allocated strings to the `read_bad` and `read_good` out parameters. The only callers of this function assign the result to global variables and thus don't have to free them in order to be leak-free. But that changes when executing the function multiple times because we'd then overwrite the previous value and thus make it unreachable. Fix the function signature and free the previous values.

The code forgot to discard unnecessary in-core commit buffer data for commits that "git log --skip=<number>" traversed but omitted from the output, which has been corrected. * jk/free-commit-buffer-of-skipped-commits: revision: free commit buffers for skipped commits
2024-08-30revision: free commit buffers for skipped commitsJeff King1-0/+1
In git-log we leave the save_commit_buffer flag set to "1", which tells the commit parsing code to store the object content after it has parsed it to find parents, tree, etc. That lets us reuse the contents for pretty-printing the commit in the output. And then after printing each commit, we call free_commit_buffer(), since we don't need it anymore. But some options may cause us to traverse commits which are not part of the output. And so git-log does not see them at all, and doesn't free them. One such case is something like: git log -n 1000 --skip=1000000 which will churn through a million commits, before showing only a thousand. We loop through these inside get_revision(), without freeing the contents. As a result, we end up storing the object data for those million commits simultaneously. We should free the stored buffers (if any) for those commits as we skip over them, which is what this patch does. Running the above command in linux.git drops the peak heap usage from ~1.1GB to ~200MB, according to valgrind/massif. (I thought we might get an even bigger improvement, but the remaining memory is going to commit/tree structs, which we do hold on to forever). Note that this problem doesn't occur if: - you're running a git-rev-list without a --format parameter; it turns off save_commit_buffer by default, since it only output the object id - you've built a commit-graph file, since in that case we'd use the optimized graph data instead of the initial parse, and then do a lazy parse for commits we're actually going to output There are probably some other option combinations that can likewise end up with useless stored commit buffers. For example, if you ask for "foo..bar", then we'll have to walk down to the merge base, and everything on the "foo" side won't be shown. Tuning the "save" behavior to handle that might be tricky (I guess maybe drop buffers for anything we mark as UNINTERESTING?). And in the long run, the right solution here is probably to make sure the commit-graph is built (since it fixes the memory problem _and_ drastically reduces CPU usage). But since this "--skip" case is an easy one-liner, it's worth fixing in the meantime. It should be OK to make this call even if there is no saved buffer (e.g., because save_commit_buffer=0, or because a commit-graph was used), since it's O(1) to look up the buffer and is a noop if it isn't present. I verified by running the above command after "git commit-graph write --reachable", and it takes the same time with and without this patch.
