However, the previous changes in this series resulted in an interesting and useful property of version sort: - The empty string as a configured suffix matches all tagnames, including tagnames without any suffix, but - tagnames containing a "real" configured suffix are still ordered according to that real suffix, because any longer suffix takes precedence over the empty string. Exploiting this property we can easily generalize suffix reordering and specify the order of tags with given suffixes not only before but even after a main release tag by using the empty suffix to denote the position of the main release tag, without any algorithm changes: $ git -c versionsort.prereleaseSuffix=-alpha \ -c versionsort.prereleaseSuffix=-beta \ -c versionsort.prereleaseSuffix="" \ -c versionsort.prereleaseSuffix=-gamma \ -c versionsort.prereleaseSuffix=-delta \ tag -l --sort=version:refname 'v3.0*' v3.0-alpha1 v3.0-beta1 v3.0 v3.0-gamma1 v3.0-delta1 Since 'versionsort.prereleaseSuffix' is not a fitting name for a configuration variable to control this more general suffix reordering, introduce the new variable 'versionsort.suffix'. Still keep the old configuration variable name as a deprecated alias, though, to avoid suddenly breaking setups already using it. Ignore the old variable if both old and new configuration variables are set, but emit a warning so users will be aware of it and can fix their configuration. Extend the documentation to describe and add a test to check this more general behavior. Note: since the empty suffix matches all tagnames, tagnames with suffixes not included in the configuration are listed together with the suffixless main release tag, ordered lexicographically right after that, i.e. before tags with suffixes listed in the configuration following the empty suffix.

| * | | versioncmp: use earliest-longest contained suffix to determine sorting orderSZEDER Gábor2016-12-081-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When comparing tagnames, it is possible that a tagname contains more than one of the configured prerelease suffixes around the first different character. After fixing a bug in the previous commit such a tagname is sorted according to the contained suffix which comes first in the configuration. This is, however, not quite the right thing to do in the following corner cases: 1. $ git -c versionsort.suffix=-bar -c versionsort.suffix=-foo-baz -c versionsort.suffix=-foo-bar tag -l --sort=version:refname 'v1*' v1.0-foo-bar v1.0-foo-baz The suffix of the tagname 'v1.0-foo-bar' is clearly '-foo-bar', so it should be listed last. However, as it also contains '-bar' around the first different character, it is listed first instead, because that '-bar' suffix comes first the configuration. 2. One of the configured suffixes starts with the other: $ git -c versionsort.prereleasesuffix=-pre \ -c versionsort.prereleasesuffix=-prerelease \ tag -l --sort=version:refname 'v2*' v2.0-prerelease1 v2.0-pre1 v2.0-pre2 Here the tagname 'v2.0-prerelease1' should be the last. When comparing 'v2.0-pre1' and 'v2.0-prerelease1' the first different characters are '1' and 'r', respectively. Since this first different character must be part of the configured suffix, the '-pre' suffix is not recognized in the first tagname. OTOH, the '-prerelease' suffix is properly recognized in 'v2.0-prerelease1', thus it is listed first. Improve version sort in these corner cases, and - look for a configured prerelease suffix containing the first different character or ending right before it, so the '-pre' suffixes are recognized in case (2). This also means that when comparing tagnames 'v2.0-pre1' and 'v2.0-pre2', swap_prereleases() would find the '-pre' suffix in both, but then it will return "undecided" and the caller will do the right thing by sorting based in '1' and '2'. - If the tagname contains more than one suffix, then give precedence to the contained suffix that starts at the earliest offset in the tagname to address (1). - If there are more than one suffixes starting at that earliest position, then give precedence to the longest of those suffixes, thus ensuring that in (2) the tagname 'v2.0-prerelease1' won't be sorted based on the '-pre' suffix. Add tests for these corner cases and adjust the documentation accordingly. Signed-off-by: SZEDER Gábor <szeder.dev@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
| * | | versioncmp: cope with common part overlapping with prerelease suffixSZEDER Gábor2016-12-081-2/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Version sort with prerelease reordering sometimes puts tagnames in the wrong order, when the common part of two compared tagnames overlaps with the leading character(s) of one or more configured prerelease suffixes. Note the position of "v2.1.0-beta-1": $ git -c versionsort.prereleaseSuffix=-beta \ tag -l --sort=version:refname v2.1.* v2.1.0-beta-2 v2.1.0-beta-3 v2.1.0 v2.1.0-RC1 v2.1.0-RC2 v2.1.0-beta-1 v2.1.1 v2.1.2 The reason is that when comparing a pair of tagnames, first versioncmp() looks for the first different character in a pair of tagnames, and then the swap_prereleases() helper function looks for a configured prerelease suffix _starting at_ that character. Thus, when in the above example the sorting algorithm happens to compare the tagnames "v2.1.0-beta-1" and "v2.1.0-RC2", swap_prereleases() tries to match the suffix "-beta" against "beta-1" to no avail, and the two tagnames erroneously end up being ordered lexicographically. To fix this issue change swap_prereleases() to look for configured prerelease suffixes _containing_ the position of that first different character. Care must be taken, when a configured suffix is longer than the tagnames' common part up to the first different character, to avoid reading memory before the beginning of the tagnames. Add a test that uses an exceptionally long prerelease suffix to check for this, in the hope that in case of a regression the illegal memory access causes a segfault in 'git tag' on one of the commonly used platforms (the test happens to pass successfully on my Linux system with the safety check removed), or at least makes valgrind complain. Under some circumstances it's possible that more than one prerelease suffixes can be found in the same tagname around that first different character. With this simple bugfix patch such a tagname is sorted according to the contained suffix that comes first in the configuration for now. This is less than ideal in some cases, and the following patch will take care of those.

This is not a problem for AsciiDoc, but AsciiDoctor sadly was explicitly designed *not* to render this correctly [*1*]. The symptom is an unhelpful line 322: callout list item index: expected 1 got 12 line 325: no callouts refer to list item 1 line 325: callout list item index: expected 2 got 13 line 327: no callouts refer to list item 2 In Git for Windows, we rely on the speed improvement of AsciiDoctor (on this developer's machine, `make -j15 html` takes roughly 30 seconds with AsciiDoctor, 70 seconds with AsciiDoc), therefore we need a way to render this correctly. The easiest way out is to simplify the callout list, as suggested by AsciiDoctor's author, even while one may very well disagree with him that a code block hath no place in a callout list. *1*: https://github.com/asciidoctor/asciidoctor/issues/1478 Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

This allows grep to search a submodule based on the state of the submodule that is present in a commit of the super project. When grep is provided with a <tree> object, the name of the object is prefixed to all output. In order to provide uniformity of output between the parent and child processes the option `--parent-basename` has been added so that the child can preface all of it's output with the name of the parent's object instead of the name of the commit SHA1 of the submodule. This changes output from the command `git grep -e. -l --recurse-submodules HEAD` from: HEAD:file <commit sha1 of submodule>:sub/file to: HEAD:file HEAD:sub/file Signed-off-by: Brandon Williams <bmwill@google.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

This is done by forking off a process to recursively call grep on each submodule. The top level --super-prefix option is used to pass a path to the submodule which can in turn be used to prepend to output or in pathspec matching logic. Recursion only occurs for submodules which have been initialized and checked out by the parent project. If a submodule hasn't been initialized and checked out it is simply skipped. In order to support the existing multi-threading infrastructure in grep, output from each child process is captured in a strbuf so that it can be later printed to the console in an ordered fashion. To limit the number of theads that are created, each child process has half the number of threads as its parents (minimum of 1), otherwise we potentailly have a fork-bomb.

Add functionality to migrate the git directory to be absorbed into the superprojects git directory. The newly added code in this patch is structured such that other areas of Git can also make use of it. The code in the submodule--helper is a mere wrapper and option parser for the function `absorb_git_dir_into_superproject`, that takes care of embedding the submodules git directory into the superprojects git dir. That function makes use of the more abstract function for this use case `relocate_gitdir`, which can be used by e.g. the worktree code eventually to move around a git directory.

We have been trying to improve the choice of this boundary, and Git 2.11 shipped with an experimental "compaction-heuristic". Since then another attempt to improve the logic further resulted in a new "indent-heuristic" logic. It is agreed that the latter gives better result overall, and the former outlived its usefulness. Retire "compaction", and keep "indent" as an experimental feature. The latter hopefully will be turned on by default in a future release, but that should be done as a separate step.
