Still, the callers are quite careful to provide reasonable values for it. Once in-flight topics have landed, we should be able to remove git_config_maybe_bool.

| * pager: handle early configJeff King2016-09-131-2/+33
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The pager code is often run early in the git.c startup, before we have actually found the repository. When we ask git_config() to look for values like core.pager, it doesn't know where to find the repo-level config, and will blindly examine ".git/config" if it exists. That's why t7006 shows that many pager-related features happen to work from the top-level of a repository, but not from a subdirectory. This patch pulls that ".git/config" hack explicitly into the pager code. There are two reasons for this: 1. We'd like to clean up the git_config() behavior, as looking at ".git/config" when we do not have a configured repository is often the wrong thing to do. But we'd prefer not to break the pager config any worse than it already is. 2. It's one very tiny step on the road to ultimately making the pager config work consistently. If we eventually get an equivalent of setup_git_directory() that _just_ finds the directory and doesn't chdir() or set up any global state, we could plug it in here (instead of blindly looking at ".git/config").

| * pager: use callbacks instead of configsetJeff King2016-09-131-14/+33
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While the cached configset interface is more pleasant to use, it is not appropriate for "early" config like pager setup, which must sometimes do tricky things like reading from ".git/config" even when we have not set up the repository. As a preparatory step to handling these cases better, let's switch back to using the callback interface, which gives us more control. Note that this is essentially a revert of 586f414 (pager.c: replace `git_config()` with `git_config_get_value()`, 2014-08-07), but with some minor style fixups and modernizations.

But to do so, we use the git_default_config() callback, which loads many other values. Ordinarily it isn't a big deal to load this config an extra time, as it simply overwrites the values from the previous run. But it's a bad idea here, for two reasons: 1. The pager setup may be called very early in the program, before we have found the git repository. As a result, we may fail to read the correct repo-level config file. This is a problem for core.pager, too, but we should at least try to minimize the pollution to other configured values. 2. Because we call setup_pager() from git.c, basically every builtin command _may_ end up reading this config and getting an implicit git_default_config() setup. Which doesn't sound like a terrible thing, except that we don't do it consistently; it triggers only when stdout is a tty. So if a command forgets to load the default config itself (but depends on it anyway), it may appear to work, and then mysteriously fail when the pager is not in use. We can improve this by loading _just_ the core.pager config from git_pager(). Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
| * pager: remove obsolete commentJeff King2016-09-131-5/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The comment at the top of pager.c claims that we've split the code out so that Windows can do something different. This dates back to f67b45f (Introduce trivial new pager.c helper infrastructure, 2006-02-28), because the original implementation used fork(). Later, we ended up sticking the Windows #ifdefs into this file anyway. And then even later, in ea27a18 (spawn pager via run_command interface, 2008-07-22) we unified the implementations. So these days this comment is really saying nothing at all. Let's drop it. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

|\ \ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Allocation related functions and stdio are unsafe things to call inside a signal handler, and indeed killing the pager can cause glibc to deadlock waiting on allocation mutex as our signal handler tries to free() some data structures in wait_for_pager().

The recent bug report revealed that this causes a deadlock in glibc at aborting "git log" [*1*]. When this happens, git process is left unterminated, and it can't be killed by SIGTERM but only by SIGKILL. The problem is that wait_for_pager() function does more than waiting for pager process's termination, but it does cleanups and printing errors. Unfortunately, the functions that may be used in a signal handler are very limited [*2*]. Particularly, malloc(), free() and the variants can't be used in a signal handler because they take a mutex internally in glibc. This was the cause of the deadlock above. Other than the direct calls of malloc/free, many functions calling malloc/free can't be used. strerror() is such one, either. Also the usage of fflush() and printf() in a signal handler is bad, although it seems working so far. In a safer side, we should avoid them, too. This patch tries to reduce the calls of such functions in signal handlers. wait_for_signal() takes a flag and avoids the unsafe calls. Also, finish_command_in_signal() is introduced for the same reason. There the free() calls are removed, and only waits for the children without whining at errors.

These config schemes are mis-designed, as the command names can be anything, but the config syntax has some restrictions. For example: $ git foo_bar error: invalid key: pager.foo_bar error: invalid key: alias.foo_bar git: 'foo_bar' is not a git command. See 'git --help'. You cannot name an alias with an underscore. And if you have an external command with one, you cannot configure its pager. In the long run, we may develop a different config scheme for these features. But in the near term (and because we'll need to support the existing scheme indefinitely), we should at least squelch the error messages shown above. These errors come from git_config_parse_key. Ideally we would pass a "quiet" flag to the config machinery, but there are many layers between the pager code and the key parsing. Passing a flag through all of those would be an invasive change. Instead, let's provide a config function to report on whether a key is syntactically valid, and have the pager and alias code skip lookup for bogus keys. We can build this easily around the existing git_config_parse_key, with two minor modifications: 1. We now handle a NULL store_key, to validate but not write out the normalized key. 2. We accept a "quiet" flag to avoid writing to stderr. This doesn't need to be a full-blown public "flags" field, because we can make the existing implementation a static helper function, keeping the mess contained inside config.c.

| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since 2e6c012e (setup_pager: set GIT_PAGER_IN_USE, 2011-08-17), we export GIT_PAGER_IN_USE so that a process that becomes the upstream of the spawned pager can still tell that we have spawned the pager and decide to do colored output even when its output no longer goes to a terminal (i.e. isatty(1)). But we forgot to clear it from the enviornment of the spawned pager. This is not a problem in a sane world, but if you have a handful of thousands Git users in your organization, somebody is bound to do strange things, e.g. typing "!<ENTER>" instead of 'q' to get control back from $LESS. GIT_PAGER_IN_USE is still set in that subshell spawned by "less", and all sorts of interesting things starts happening, e.g. "git diff | cat" starts coloring its output. We can clear the environment variable in the half of the fork that runs the pager to avoid the confusion.

In ec7ff5b, it was made into a reusable function, and in dc801e7, we started using it to align diffstats. Binary files in a diffstat show byte counts rather than line numbers, meaning they can be quite large (e.g., consider adding or removing a 2GB file). decimal_width is not up to the challenge for two reasons: 1. It takes the value as an "int", whereas large files may easily surpass this. The value may be truncated, in which case we will produce an incorrect value. 2. It counts "up" by repeatedly multiplying another integer by 10 until it surpasses the value. This can cause an infinite loop when the value is close to the largest representable integer. For example, consider using a 32-bit signed integer, and a value of 2,140,000,000 (just shy of 2^31-1). We will count up and eventually see that 1,000,000,000 is smaller than our value. The next step would be to multiply by 10 and see that 10,000,000,000 is too large, ending the loop. But we can't represent that value, and we have signed overflow. This is technically undefined behavior, but a common behavior is to lose the high bits, in which case our iterator will certainly be less than the number. So we'll keep multiplying, overflow again, and so on. This patch changes the argument to a uintmax_t (the same type we use to store the diffstat information for binary filese), and counts "down" by repeatedly dividing our value by 10.

The S flag (chop long lines), on the other hand, is not related to Git and is a matter of user preference. Git should not decide for the user to change LESS's default. More specifically, the S flag harms users who review untrusted code within a pager, since a patch looking like: -old code; +new good code; [... lots of tabs ...] malicious code; would appear identical to: -old code; +new good code; Users who prefer the old behavior can still set the $LESS environment variable to -FRSX explicitly, or set core.pager to 'less -S'.

* pager: turn on "cat" optimization for DEFAULT_PAGERjk/pager-bypass-cat-for-default-pagerJeff King2013-09-031-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the user specifies a pager of "cat" (or the empty string), whether it is in the environment or from config, we automagically optimize it out to mean "no pager" and avoid forking at all. We treat an empty pager variable similary. However, we did not apply this optimization when DEFAULT_PAGER was set to "cat" (or the empty string). There is no reason to treat DEFAULT_PAGER any differently. The optimization should not be user-visible (unless the user has a bizarre "cat" in their PATH). And even if it is, we are better off behaving consistently between the compile-time default and the environment and config settings. The stray "else" we are removing from this code was introduced by 402461a (pager: do not fork a pager if PAGER is set to empty., 2006-04-16). At that time, the line directly above used: if (!pager) pager = "less"; as a fallback, meaning that it could not possibly trigger the optimization. Later, a3d023d (Provide a build time default-pager setting, 2009-10-30) turned that constant into a build-time setting which could be anything, but didn't loosen the "else" to let DEFAULT_PAGER use the optimization.

* pager: drop "wait for output to run less" hackJeff King2012-06-051-18/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 35ce862 (pager: Work around window resizing bug in 'less', 2007-01-24) causes git's pager sub-process to wait to receive input after forking but before exec-ing the pager. To handle this, run-command had to grow a "pre-exec callback" feature. Unfortunately, this feature does not work at all on Windows (where we do not fork), and interacts poorly with run-command's parent notification system. Its use should be discouraged. The bug in less was fixed in version 406, which was released in June 2007. It is probably safe at this point to remove our workaround. That lets us rip out the preexec_cb feature entirely.

* Stop starting pager recursivelyNguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy2012-04-271-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | git-column can be used as a pager for other git commands, something like this: GIT_PAGER="git -p column --mode='dense color'" git -p branch The problem with this is that "git -p column" also has $GIT_PAGER set so the pager runs itself again as another pager. The end result is an infinite loop of forking. Other git commands have the same problem if being abused this way. Check if $GIT_PAGER is already set and stop launching another pager.

* | pager: find out the terminal width before spawning the pagerzj/term-columnsZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek2012-02-131-0/+37
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | term_columns() checks for terminal width via ioctl(2) on the standard output, but we spawn the pager too early for this check to be useful. The effect of this buglet can be observed by opening a wide terminal and running "git -p help --all", which still shows 80-column output, while "git help --all" uses the full terminal width. Run the check before we spawn the pager to fix this. While at it, move term_columns() to pager.c and export it from cache.h so that callers other than the help subsystem can use it.

* setup_pager: set GIT_PAGER_IN_USEJeff King2011-08-181-7/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We have always set a global "spawned_pager" variable when we start the pager. This lets us make the auto-color decision later in the program as as "we are outputting to a terminal, or to a pager which can handle colors". Commit 6e9af86 added support for the GIT_PAGER_IN_USE environment variable. An external program calling git (e.g., git-svn) could set this variable to indicate that it had already started the pager, and that the decision about auto-coloring should take that into account. However, 6e9af86 failed to do the reverse, which is to tell external programs when git itself has started the pager. Thus a git command implemented as an external script that has the pager turned on (e.g., "git -p stash show") would not realize it was going to a pager, and would suppress colors. This patch remedies that; we always set GIT_PAGER_IN_USE when we start the pager, and the value is respected by both this program and any spawned children.

* Make 'git var GIT_PAGER' always print the configured pagerJonathan Nieder2010-02-141-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Scripted commands that want to use git’s configured pager know better than ‘git var’ does whether stdout is going to be a tty at the appropriate time. Checking isatty(1) as git_pager() does now won’t cut it, since the output of git var itself is almost never a terminal. The symptom is that when used by humans, ‘git var GIT_PAGER’ behaves as it should, but when used by scripts, it always returns ‘cat’! So avoid tricks with isatty() and just always print the configured pager. This does not fix the callers to check isatty(1) themselves yet. Nevertheless, this patch alone is enough to fix 'am --interactive'. Thanks to Sebastian Celis for the report and Jeff King for the analysis.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Provide a DEFAULT_PAGER knob so packagers can set the fallback pager to something appropriate during the build. Examples: On (old) solaris systems, /usr/bin/less (typically the first less found) doesn't understand the default arguments (FXRS), which forces users to alter their environment (PATH, GIT_PAGER, LESS, etc) or have a local or global gitconfig before paging works as expected. On Debian systems, by policy packages must fall back to the 'pager' command, so that changing the target of the /usr/bin/pager symlink changes the default pager for all packages at once.

* pager: do wait_for_pager on signal deathJeff King2009-01-211-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since ea27a18 (spawn pager via run_command interface), the original git process actually does git work, and the pager is a child process (actually, on Windows it has always been that way, since Windows lacks fork). After spawning the pager, we register an atexit() handler that waits for the pager to finish. Unfortunately, that handler does not always run. In particular, if git is killed by a signal, then we exit immediately. The calling shell then thinks that git is done; however, the pager is still trying to run and impact the terminal. The result can be seen by running a long git process with a pager (e.g., "git log -p") and hitting ^C. Depending on your config, you should see the shell prompt, but pressing a key causes the pager to do any terminal de-initialization sequence. This patch just intercepts any death-dealing signals and waits for the pager before dying. Under typical less configuration, that means hitting ^C will cause git to stop generating output, but the pager will keep running.
