2008-07-28Make use of stat.ctime configurableAlex Riesen1-0/+4
A new configuration variable 'core.trustctime' is introduced to allow ignoring st_ctime information when checking if paths in the working tree has changed, because there are situations where it produces too much false positives. Like when file system crawlers keep changing it when scanning and using the ctime for marking scanned files. The default is to notice ctime changes.

2008-07-13Move code interpreting path relative to exec-dir to new function system_path()Steffen Prohaska1-9/+2
Expanding system paths relative to git_exec_path can be used for creating an installation that can be moved to a different directory without re-compiling. We use this approach for template_dir and the system wide gitconfig. The Windows installer (msysgit) is an example for such a setup. This commit moves common code to a new function system_path(). System paths that are to be interpreted relative to git_exec_path are passed to system_path() and the return value is used instead of the original path. system_path() prefixes a relative path with git_exec_path and leaves absolute paths unmodified. For example, we now write template_dir = system_path(DEFAULT_GIT_TEMPLATE_DIR); [j6t: moved from path.c to exec_cmd.c] Signed-off-by: Steffen Prohaska <prohaska@zib.de> Signed-off-by: Johannes Sixt <johannes.sixt@telecom.at> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2008-07-01Only use GIT_CONFIG in "git config", not other programsDaniel Barkalow1-27/+20
For everything other than using "git config" to read or write a git-style config file that isn't the current repo's config file, GIT_CONFIG was actively detrimental. Rather than argue over which programs are important enough to have work anyway, just fix all of them at the root. Also removes GIT_LOCAL_CONFIG, which would only be useful for programs that do want to use global git-specific config, but not the repo's own git-specific config, and want to use some other, presumably git-specific config. Despite being documented, I can't find any sign that it was ever used. Signed-off-by: Daniel Barkalow <barkalow@iabervon.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

The configuration setting branch.autosetupmerge can now be set to "always", which is equivalent to using --track from the command line.

This function is also used to refactor some code in 'config.c'. Refactoring other files is left for other patches. Also not all the code in "config.c" is refactored, because the function takes a "const char **" as its first parameter, but in many places a "char *" is used instead of a "const char *".

2008-02-06safecrlf: Add mechanism to warn about irreversible crlf conversionsSteffen Prohaska1-0/+9
CRLF conversion bears a slight chance of corrupting data. autocrlf=true will convert CRLF to LF during commit and LF to CRLF during checkout. A file that contains a mixture of LF and CRLF before the commit cannot be recreated by git. For text files this is the right thing to do: it corrects line endings such that we have only LF line endings in the repository. But for binary files that are accidentally classified as text the conversion can corrupt data. If you recognize such corruption early you can easily fix it by setting the conversion type explicitly in .gitattributes. Right after committing you still have the original file in your work tree and this file is not yet corrupted. You can explicitly tell git that this file is binary and git will handle the file appropriately. Unfortunately, the desired effect of cleaning up text files with mixed line endings and the undesired effect of corrupting binary files cannot be distinguished. In both cases CRLFs are removed in an irreversible way. For text files this is the right thing to do because CRLFs are line endings, while for binary files converting CRLFs corrupts data. This patch adds a mechanism that can either warn the user about an irreversible conversion or can even refuse to convert. The mechanism is controlled by the variable core.safecrlf, with the following values: - false: disable safecrlf mechanism - warn: warn about irreversible conversions - true: refuse irreversible conversions The default is to warn. Users are only affected by this default if core.autocrlf is set. But the current default of git is to leave core.autocrlf unset, so users will not see warnings unless they deliberately chose to activate the autocrlf mechanism. The safecrlf mechanism's details depend on the git command. The general principles when safecrlf is active (not false) are: - we warn/error out if files in the work tree can modified in an irreversible way without giving the user a chance to backup the original file. - for read-only operations that do not modify files in the work tree we do not not print annoying warnings. There are exceptions. Even though... - "git add" itself does not touch the files in the work tree, the next checkout would, so the safety triggers; - "git apply" to update a text file with a patch does touch the files in the work tree, but the operation is about text files and CRLF conversion is about fixing the line ending inconsistencies, so the safety does not trigger; - "git diff" itself does not touch the files in the work tree, it is often run to inspect the changes you intend to next "git add". To catch potential problems early, safety triggers. The concept of a safety check was originally proposed in a similar way by Linus Torvalds. Thanks to Dimitry Potapov for insisting on getting the naked LF/autocrlf=true case right. Signed-off-by: Steffen Prohaska <prohaska@zib.de>

2008-01-02config: handle lack of newline at end of file betterJeff King1-5/+9
The config parsing routines use the static global 'config_file' to store the FILE* pointing to the current config file being parsed. The function get_next_char() automatically converts an EOF on this file to a newline for the convenience of its callers, and it sets config_file to NULL to indicate that EOF was reached. This throws away useful information, though, since some routines want to call ftell on 'config_file' to find out exactly _where_ the routine ended. In the case of a key ending at EOF boundary, we ended up segfaulting in some cases (changing that key or adding another key in its section), or failing to provide the necessary newline (adding a new section). This patch adds a new flag to indicate EOF and uses that instead of setting config_file to NULL. It also makes sure to add newlines where necessary for truncated input. All three included tests fail without the patch. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2007-12-26Improve error messages when int/long cannot be parsed from configShawn O. Pearce1-10/+21
If a config file has become mildly corrupted due to a missing LF we may discover some other option joined up against the end of a numeric value. For example: [section] number = 1auto where the "auto" flag was meant to occur on the next line, below "number", but the missing LF has caused it to no longer be its own option. Instead the word "auto" is parsed as a 'unit factor' for the value of "number". Before this change we got the confusing error message: fatal: unknown unit: 'auto' which told us nothing about where the problem appeared. Now we get: fatal: bad config value for 'aninvalid.unit' which at least points the user in the right direction of where to search for the incorrectly formatted configuration file.

This attribute gives you finer control per path. For example, if you have these in the .gitattributes: frotz whitespace nitfol -whitespace xyzzy whitespace=-trailing all types of whitespace problems known to git are noticed in path 'frotz' (i.e. diff shows them in diff.whitespace color, and apply warns about them), no whitespace problem is noticed in path 'nitfol', and the default types of whitespace problems except "trailing whitespace" are noticed for path 'xyzzy'.

2007-11-16core.excludesfile clean-upJunio C Hamano1-0/+7
There are inconsistencies in the way commands currently handle the core.excludesfile configuration variable. The problem is the variable is too new to be noticed by anything other than git-add and git-status. * git-ls-files does not notice any of the "ignore" files by default, as it predates the standardized set of ignore files. The calling scripts established the convention to use .git/info/exclude, .gitignore, and later core.excludesfile. * git-add and git-status know about it because they call add_excludes_from_file() directly with their own notion of which standard set of ignore files to use. This is just a stupid duplication of code that need to be updated every time the definition of the standard set of ignore files is changed. * git-read-tree takes --exclude-per-directory=<gitignore>, not because the flexibility was needed. Again, this was because the option predates the standardization of the ignore files. * git-merge-recursive uses hardcoded per-directory .gitignore and nothing else. git-clean (scripted version) does not honor core.* because its call to underlying ls-files does not know about it. git-clean in C (parked in 'pu') doesn't either. We probably could change git-ls-files to use the standard set when no excludes are specified on the command line and ignore processing was asked, or something like that, but that will be a change in semantics and might break people's scripts in a subtle way. I am somewhat reluctant to make such a change. On the other hand, I think it makes perfect sense to fix git-read-tree, git-merge-recursive and git-clean to follow the same rule as other commands. I do not think of a valid use case to give an exclude-per-directory that is nonstandard to read-tree command, outside a "negative" test in the t1004 test script. This patch is the first step to untangle this mess. The next step would be to teach read-tree, merge-recursive and clean (in C) to use setup_standard_excludes().

Hence, -DETC_GITCONFIG is removed from the CFLAGS and a special build rule for config.c is introduced.

There are inconsistencies in the way commands currently handle the core.excludesfile configuration variable. The problem is the variable is too new to be noticed by anything other than git-add and git-status. * git-ls-files does not notice any of the "ignore" files by default, as it predates the standardized set of ignore files. The calling scripts established the convention to use .git/info/exclude, .gitignore, and later core.excludesfile. * git-add and git-status know about it because they call add_excludes_from_file() directly with their own notion of which standard set of ignore files to use. This is just a stupid duplication of code that need to be updated every time the definition of the standard set of ignore files is changed. * git-read-tree takes --exclude-per-directory=<gitignore>, not because the flexibility was needed. Again, this was because the option predates the standardization of the ignore files. * git-merge-recursive uses hardcoded per-directory .gitignore and nothing else. git-clean (scripted version) does not honor core.* because its call to underlying ls-files does not know about it. git-clean in C (parked in 'pu') doesn't either. We probably could change git-ls-files to use the standard set when no excludes are specified on the command line and ignore processing was asked, or something like that, but that will be a change in semantics and might break people's scripts in a subtle way. I am somewhat reluctant to make such a change. On the other hand, I think it makes perfect sense to fix git-read-tree, git-merge-recursive and git-clean to follow the same rule as other commands. I do not think of a valid use case to give an exclude-per-directory that is nonstandard to read-tree command, outside a "negative" test in the t1004 test script. This patch is the first step to untangle this mess. The next step would be to teach read-tree, merge-recursive and clean (in C) to use setup_standard_excludes().

2007-11-02git-diff: complain about >=8 consecutive spaces in initial indentJunio C Hamano1-0/+1
This introduces a new whitespace error type, "indent-with-non-tab". The error is about starting a line with 8 or more SP, instead of indenting it with a HT. This is not enabled by default, as some projects employ an indenting policy to use only SPs and no HTs. The kernel folks and git contributors may want to enable this detection with: [core] whitespace = indent-with-non-tab Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2007-11-02War on whitespace: first, a bit of retreat.Junio C Hamano1-0/+52
This introduces core.whitespace configuration variable that lets you specify the definition of "whitespace error". Currently there are two kinds of whitespace errors defined: * trailing-space: trailing whitespaces at the end of the line. * space-before-tab: a SP appears immediately before HT in the indent part of the line. You can specify the desired types of errors to be detected by listing their names (unique abbreviations are accepted) separated by comma. By default, these two errors are always detected, as that is the traditional behaviour. You can disable detection of a particular type of error by prefixing a '-' in front of the name of the error, like this: [core] whitespace = -trailing-space This patch teaches the code to output colored diff with DIFF_WHITESPACE color to highlight the detected whitespace errors to honor the new configuration.

2007-06-24Add core.quotepath configuration variable.Junio C Hamano1-0/+5
We always quote "unusual" byte values in a pathname using C-string style, to make it safer for parsing scripts that do not handle NUL separated records well (or just too lazy to bother). The absolute minimum bytes that need to be quoted for this purpose are TAB, LF (and other control characters), double quote and backslash. However, we have also always quoted the bytes in high 8-bit range; this was partly because we were lazy and partly because we were being cautious. This introduces an internal "quote_path_fully" variable, and core.quotepath configuration variable to control it. When set to false, it does not quote bytes in high 8-bit range anymore but passes them intact. The variable defaults to "true" to retain the traditional behaviour for now.

2007-05-10Custom compression levels for objects and packsDana How1-1/+17
Add config variables pack.compression and core.loosecompression , and switch --compression=level to pack-objects. Loose objects will be compressed using core.loosecompression if set, else core.compression if set, else Z_BEST_SPEED. Packed objects will be compressed using --compression=level if seen, else pack.compression if set, else core.compression if set, else Z_DEFAULT_COMPRESSION. This is the "pack compression level". Loose objects added to a pack undeltified will be recompressed to the pack compression level if it is unequal to the current loose compression level by the preceding rules, or if the loose object was written while core.legacyheaders = true. Newly deltified loose objects are always compressed to the current pack compression level. Previously packed objects added to a pack are recompressed to the current pack compression level exactly when their deltification status changes, since the previous pack data cannot be reused. In either case, the --no-reuse-object switch from the first patch below will always force recompression to the current pack compression level, instead of assuming the pack compression level hasn't changed and pack data can be reused when possible. This applies on top of the following patches from Nicolas Pitre: [PATCH] allow for undeltified objects not to be reused [PATCH] make "repack -f" imply "pack-objects --no-reuse-object" Signed-off-by: Dana L.

2007-05-10deprecate the new loose object header formatNicolas Pitre1-5/+0
Now that we encourage and actively preserve objects in a packed form more agressively than we did at the time the new loose object format and core.legacyheaders were introduced, that extra loose object format doesn't appear to be worth it anymore. Because the packing of loose objects has to go through the delta match loop anyway, and since most of them should end up being deltified in most cases, there is really little advantage to have this parallel loose object format as the CPU savings it might provide is rather lost in the noise in the end. This patch gets rid of core.legacyheaders, preserve the legacy format as the only writable loose object format and deprecate the other one to keep things simpler.

2007-03-18Limit the size of the new delta_base_cacheShawn O. Pearce1-0/+5
The new configuration variable core.deltaBaseCacheLimit allows the user to control how much memory they are willing to give to Git for caching base objects of deltas. This is not normally meant to be a user tweakable knob; the "out of the box" settings are meant to be suitable for almost all workloads. We default to 16 MiB under the assumption that the cache is not meant to consume all of the user's available memory, and that the cache's main purpose was to cache trees, for faster path limiters during revision traversal. Since trees tend to be relatively small objects, this relatively small limit should still allow a large number of objects. On the other hand we don't want the cache to start storing 200 different versions of a 200 MiB blob, as this could easily blow the entire address space of a 32 bit process. We evict OBJ_BLOB from the cache first (credit goes to Junio) as we want to favor OBJ_TREE within the cache. These are the objects that have the highest inflate() startup penalty, as they tend to be small and thus don't have that much of a chance to ammortize that penalty over the entire data.

Some systems have sizeof(off_t) == 8 while sizeof(size_t) == 4. This implies that we are able to access and work on files whose maximum length is around 2^63-1 bytes, but we can only malloc or mmap somewhat less than 2^32-1 bytes of memory. On such a system an implicit conversion of off_t to size_t can cause the size_t to wrap, resulting in unexpected and exciting behavior. Right now we are working around all gcc warnings generated by the -Wshorten-64-to-32 option by passing the off_t through xsize_t(). In the future we should make xsize_t on such problematic platforms detect the wrapping and die if such a file is accessed. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

2007-03-02Add core.symlinks to mark filesystems that do not support symbolic links.Johannes Sixt1-0/+5
Some file systems that can host git repositories and their working copies do not support symbolic links. But then if the repository contains a symbolic link, it is impossible to check out the working copy. This patch enables partial support of symbolic links so that it is possible to check out a working copy on such a file system. A new flag core.symlinks (which is true by default) can be set to false to indicate that the filesystem does not support symbolic links. In this case, symbolic links that exist in the trees are checked out as small plain files, and checking in modifications of these files preserve the symlink property in the database (as long as an entry exists in the index). Of course, this does not magically make symbolic links work on such defective file systems; hence, this solution does not help if the working copy relies on that an entry is a real symbolic link.

2007-02-14Lazy man's auto-CRLFLinus Torvalds1-0/+5
It currently does NOT know about file attributes, so it does its conversion purely based on content. Maybe that is more in the "git philosophy" anyway, since content is king, but I think we should try to do the file attributes to turn it off on demand. Anyway, BY DEFAULT it is off regardless, because it requires a [core] AutoCRLF = true in your config file to be enabled. We could make that the default for Windows, of course, the same way we do some other things (filemode etc). But you can actually enable it on UNIX, and it will cause: - "git update-index" will write blobs without CRLF - "git diff" will diff working tree files without CRLF - "git checkout" will write files to the working tree _with_ CRLF and things work fine. Funnily, it actually shows an odd file in git itself: git clone -n git test-crlf cd test-crlf git config core.autocrlf true git checkout git diff shows a diff for "Documentation/docbook-xsl.css". Why? Because we have actually checked in that file *with* CRLF! So when "core.autocrlf" is true, we'll always generate a *different* hash for it in the index, because the index hash will be for the content _without_ CRLF. Is this complete? I dunno. It seems to work for me. It doesn't use the filename at all right now, and that's probably a deficiency (we could certainly make the "is_binary()" heuristics also take standard filename heuristics into account). I don't pass in the filename at all for the "index_fd()" case (git-update-index), so that would need to be passed around, but this actually works fine. NOTE NOTE NOTE! The "is_binary()" heuristics are totally made-up by yours truly. I will not guarantee that they work at all reasonable. Caveat emptor. But it _is_ simple, and it _is_ safe, since it's all off by default. The patch is pretty simple - the biggest part is the new "convert.c" file, but even that is really just basic stuff that anybody can write in "Teaching C 101" as a final project for their first class in programming. Not to say that it's bug-free, of course - but at least we're not talking about rocket surgery here.

In some cases we did not even bother to check the return value of mmap() and just assume it worked. This is bad, because if we are out of virtual address space the kernel returned MAP_FAILED and we would attempt to dereference that address, segfaulting without any real error output to the user. We are replacing all calls to mmap() with xmmap() and moving all MAP_FAILED checking into that single location. If a mmap call fails we try to release enough least-recently-used pack windows to possibly succeed, then retry the mmap() attempt. If we cannot mmap even after releasing pack memory then we die() as none of our callers have any reasonable recovery strategy for a failed mmap. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

2006-12-29Fully activate the sliding window pack access.Shawn O. Pearce1-0/+10
This finally turns on the sliding window behavior for packfile data access by mapping limited size windows and chaining them under the packed_git->windows list. We consider a given byte offset to be within the window only if there would be at least 20 bytes (one hash worth of data) accessible after the requested offset. This range selection relates to the contract that use_pack() makes with its callers, allowing them to access one hash or one object header without needing to call use_pack() for every byte of data obtained. In the worst case scenario we will map the same page of data twice into memory: once at the end of one window and once again at the start of the next window. This duplicate page mapping will happen only when an object header or a delta base reference is spanned over the end of a window and is always limited to just one page of duplication, as no sane operating system will ever have a page size smaller than a hash. I am assuming that the possible wasted page of virtual address space is going to perform faster than the alternatives, which would be to copy the object header or ref delta into a temporary buffer prior to parsing, or to check the window range on every byte during header parsing. We may decide to revisit this decision in the future since this is just a gut instinct decision and has not actually been proven out by experimental testing. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

2006-12-13Allow subcommand.color and color.subcommand color configurationAndy Parkins1-1/+1
While adding colour to the branch command it was pointed out that a config option like "branch.color" conflicts with the pre-existing "branch.something" namespace used for specifying default merge urls and branches. The suggested solution was to flip the order of the components to "color.branch", which I did for colourising branch. This patch does the same thing for - git-log (color.diff) - git-status (color.status) - git-diff (color.diff) - pager (color.pager) I haven't removed the old config options; but they should probably be deprecated and eventually removed to prevent future namespace collisions. I've done this deprecation by changing the documentation for the config file to match the new names; and adding the "color.XXX" options to contrib/completion/git-completion.bash. Unfortunately git-svn reads "diff.color" and "pager.color"; which I don't like to change unilaterally.

2006-07-13sha1_file: add the ability to parse objects in "pack file format"Linus Torvalds1-0/+5
The pack-file format is slightly different from the traditional git object format, in that it has a much denser binary header encoding. The traditional format uses an ASCII string with type and length information, which is somewhat wasteful. A new object format starts with uncompressed binary header followed by compressed payload -- this will allow us later to copy the payload straight to packfiles. Obviously they cannot be read by older versions of git, so for now new object files are created with the traditional format. core.legacyheaders configuration item, when set to false makes the code write in new format for people to experiment with.

The speed difference is even more noticeable when committing large files, which is now up to 8 times faster. The configurability is through setting core.compression = [-1..9] which maps to the zlib constants; -1 is the default, 0 is no compression, and 1..9 are various speed/size tradeoffs, 9 being slowest.

This patch is based on Pasky's, with three notable differences: - I did not yet update the documentation - I named it .gitconfig, not .gitrc - git-repo-config does not barf when a unique key is overridden locally The last means that if you have something like [alias] l = log --stat -M in ~/.gitconfig, and [alias] l = log --stat -M next.. in $GIT_DIR/config, then git-repo-config alias.l returns only one value, namely the value from $GIT_DIR/config. If you set the environment variable GIT_CONFIG, $HOME/.gitconfig is not read, and neither $GIT_DIR/config, but $GIT_CONFIG instead. If you set GIT_CONFIG_LOCAL instead, it is interpreted instead of $GIT_DIR/config, but $HOME/.gitconfig is still read.

2006-06-09shared repository - add a few missing calls to adjust_shared_perm().Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
There were a few calls to adjust_shared_perm() that were missing: - init-db creates refs, refs/heads, and refs/tags before reading from templates that could specify sharedrepository in the config file; - updating config file created it under user's umask without adjusting; - updating refs created it under user's umask without adjusting; - switching branches created .git/HEAD under user's umask without adjusting. This moves adjust_shared_perm() from sha1_file.c to path.c, since a few SIMPLE_PROGRAM need to call repository configuration functions which in turn need to call adjust_shared_perm(). sha1_file.c needs to link with SHA1 computation library which is usually not linked to SIMPLE_PROGRAM.

2006-05-13git config syntax updatesLinus Torvalds1-13/+81
This updates the hierarchical section name syntax to [section<space>+"<randomstring>"] where the only rule for "randomstring" is that it can't contain a newline, and if you really want to insert a double-quote, you do it with \". It turns that into the section name "secion.randomstring". The "section" part is still case insensitive, but the "randomstring" part is case sensitive. So you could use this for things like [email "torvalds@osdl.org"] name = Linus Torvalds if you wanted to do the "email->name" conversion as part of the config file format (I'm not claiming that is sensible, I'm just giving it as an insane example). That would show up as the association email.torvalds@osdl.org.name -> Linus Torvalds which is easy to parse (the "." in the email _looks_ ambiguous, but it isn't: you know that there will always be a single key-name, so you find the key name with "strrchr(name, '.')" and things are entirely unambiguous). Repo-config is updated to be able to parse the new format, and also write things out in the new format. [jc: rolled two patches from Linus and one fix-up from Sean into one, with additional adjustments for t/t1300 test to check the case insensitiveness of section base and variable and case sensitiveness of the extended section part.

2006-02-08"Assume unchanged" gitJunio C Hamano1-0/+5
This adds "assume unchanged" logic, started by this message in the list discussion recently: <Pine.LNX.4.64.0601311807470.7301@g5.osdl.org> This is a workaround for filesystems that do not have lstat() that is quick enough for the index mechanism to take advantage of. On the paths marked as "assumed to be unchanged", the user needs to explicitly use update-index to register the object name to be in the next commit. You can use two new options to update-index to set and reset the CE_VALID bit: git-update-index --assume-unchanged path... git-update-index --no-assume-unchanged path... These forms manipulate only the CE_VALID bit; it does not change the object name recorded in the index file. Nor they add a new entry to the index. When the configuration variable "core.ignorestat = true" is set, the index entries are marked with CE_VALID bit automatically after: - update-index to explicitly register the current object name to the index file. - when update-index --refresh finds the path to be up-to-date. - when tools like read-tree -u and apply --index update the working tree file and register the current object name to the index file. The flag is dropped upon read-tree that does not check out the index entry. This happens regardless of the core.ignorestat settings. Index entries marked with CE_VALID bit are assumed to be unchanged most of the time. However, there are cases that CE_VALID bit is ignored for the sake of safety and usability: - while "git-read-tree -m" or git-apply need to make sure that the paths involved in the merge do not have local modifications. This sacrifices performance for safety. - when git-checkout-index -f -q -u -a tries to see if it needs to checkout the paths. Otherwise you can never check anything out ;-). - when git-update-index --really-refresh (a new flag) tries to see if the index entry is up to date. You can start with everything marked as CE_VALID and run this once to drop CE_VALID bit for paths that are modified. Most notably, "update-index --refresh" honours CE_VALID and does not actively stat, so after you modified a file in the working tree, update-index --refresh would not notice until you tell the index about it with "git-update-index path" or "git-update-index --no-assume-unchanged path". This version is not expected to be perfect. I think diff between index and/or tree and working files may need some adjustment, and there probably needs other cases we should automatically unmark paths that are marked to be CE_VALID. But the basics seem to work, and ready to be tested by people who asked for this feature. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

It copies the templates before creating the HEAD, and if the config file is copied from the template directory, reads it, primarily to pick up the value of core.symrefsonly.

2005-11-15diff: make default rename detection limit configurable.Junio C Hamano1-0/+5
A while ago, a rename-detection limit logic was implemented as a response to this thread: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=git&m=112413080630175 where gitweb was found to be using a lot of time and memory to detect renames on huge commits. git-diff family takes -l<num> flag, and if the number of paths that are rename destination candidates (i.e. new paths with -M, or modified paths with -C) are larger than that number, skips rename/copy detection even when -M or -C is specified on the command line. This commit makes the rename detection limit easier to use. You can have: [diff] renamelimit = 30 in your .git/config file to specify the default rename detection limit. You can override this from the command line; giving 0 means 'unlimited': git diff -M -l0 We might want to change the default behaviour, when you do not have the configuration, to limit it to say 20 paths or so. This would also help the diffstat generation after a big 'git pull'. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

This means that you don't have to use the GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL environment variable to override your email - you can just edit the config file instead. The patch looks bigger than it is because it makes the default name and email information non-static and renames it appropriately. And it moves the common git environment variables into a new library file, so that you can link against libgit.a and get the git environment without having to link in zlib and libcrypt. In short, most of it is renaming and moving, the real change core is just a few new lines in "git_default_config()" that copies the user config values to the new base.

2005-10-10Add ".git/config" file parserLinus Torvalds1-0/+222
This is a first cut at a very simple parser for a git config file. The format of the file is a simple ini-file like thing, with simple variable/value pairs. You can (and should) make the variables have a simple single-level scope, ie a valid file looks something like this: # # This is the config file, and # a '#' or ';' character indicates # a comment # ; core variables [core] ; Don't trust file modes filemode = false ; Our diff algorithm [diff] external = "/usr/local/bin/gnu-diff -u" renames = true which parses into three variables: "core.filemode" is associated with the string "false", and "diff.external" gets the appropriate quoted value. Right now we only react to one variable: "core.filemode" is a boolean that decides if we should care about the 0100 (user-execute) bit of the stat information. Even that is just a parsing demonstration - this doesn't actually implement that st_mode compare logic itself. Different programs can react to different config options, although they should always fall back to calling "git_default_config()" on any config option name that they don't recognize.
