[PATCH 00/10] Build in merge

[PATCH 00/10] Build in merge

[Miklos Vajna]

This series is a rewrite of git-merge in C.

I already sent a WIP version of this series, it already worked at that
time, but I had numerous internal TODOs in the code.

I also tried to use the internal API wherever it was possible to avoid
the expensive run_command() calls.

At the moment I am not aware of any bugs in ugly parts in the code, so I
would appreciate if I could get some comments (positive or negative) on
it.

And yes, I'm aware that it's already late for 1.5.6, I'm sending it out
so that I can work on issues pointed out by others in the meantime.

Thanks.

Miklos Vajna (10):
  Move split_cmdline() to alias.c
  Move commit_list_count() to commit.c
  Move builtin-remote's skip_prefix() to git-compat-util.h
  Add new test to ensure git-merge handles pull.twohead and
    pull.octopus
  parseopt: add a new PARSE_OPT_ARGV0_IS_AN_OPTION option
  Move read_cache_unmerged() to read-cache.c
  git-fmt-merge-msg: make it useable from other builtins
  Introduce commit_list_append() in commit.c
  Introduce get_octopus_merge_bases() in commit.c
  Build in merge

[PATCH 01/10] Move split_cmdline() to alias.c

[Miklos Vajna]

split_cmdline() is currently used for aliases only, but later it can be
useful for other builtins as well. Move it to alias.c for now,
indicating that originally it's for aliases, but we'll have it in libgit
this way.

Somehow you seemed to have picked the one whose semantics is defined much
less clearly.  For one thing, it takes more effort (and unnatural way to
check) for the caller to detect the case where prefix did not match than
the one that returns NULL.  Worse, I think this one is less efficient,
doing strlen(prefix) twice.

Ugh.

At least please have the courtesy of not making it more expensive than the
original unnecessarily.  Isn't (rest == arg) enough here?

Still, I think the one from builtin-remote.c you used is a much worse
implementation of the same thing between the two.  It was Ok while it was
a local scope hack only for builtin-remote.c's use, but a special calling
convention like "if name is NULL return empty string" should not be
promoted to public utility library status without defending why it is
always a good idea to do so.

test that c0 and c1 do and c2 and c3 do not exist here, as it is cheap,
and otherwise you may end up chasing wild-goose when somebody breaks
git-reset.  No need to do so in later tests in this script, but it is a
cheap protection for yourself from others' mistakes ;-).

Nobody runs V7 that lacked "test -e" to run these test scripts, but you
expect them to be regular files at this point of the test, so the correct
way to spell these is with "test -f".

In general, you are better off training yourself to think if you can use
"test -f" before blindly using "test -e".

Is it because it should dump core, or is it because the command should
decline to work, gracefully failing with an error message and non-zero
exit status?  Use "test_must_fail" to check for the latter.

Don't you want to check how it fails and in what shape the command leaves
the work tree?  I am assuming that recursive sees more than one "remote"
head and declines to work without touching work tree nor the index, so if
that is what you expect, you should check for that.  Otherwise, a
regression that loses local changes will go unnoticed.

Likewise, don't you want to check the result of the merge?  Not just
"merge exited with 0", but you would want to see that the HEAD has
advanced, it has the expected parents, there is no unexpected local
changes (because you did not have any when you started the merge), and it
has the expected tree contents.

Obviously the later, corrected.

Hm yes. I added checks to ensure nothing happened.

[PATCH 05/10] parseopt: add a new PARSE_OPT_ARGV0_IS_AN_OPTION option

[Miklos Vajna]

This new option tells parse-options not to ignore argv[0]. This is
useful when argv cames from split_cmdline(), as in that case argv[0]
contains a valuable option as well.

Looks good, but as a public interface probably it needs a few lines of
comment in front of the function's definition to describe what it is used
for.  Perhaps like...

/*
 * Read the index file that is potentially unmerged into given
 * index_state, dropping any unmerged entries.  Returns true is
 * the index is unmerged.  Callers who want to refuse to work

[PATCH 07/10] git-fmt-merge-msg: make it useable from other builtins

[Miklos Vajna]

Move all functionality (except config and option parsing) from
cmd_fmt_merge_msg() to fmt_merge_msg(), so that other builtins can use
it without a child process.

All functions have been changed to use strbufs, and now only
cmd_fmt_merge_msg() reads directly from a file / writes anything to
stdout.

The word in the title should be "usable" (s/sea/sa/).

Other than that, looks like a quite straightforward conversion.

OK, I fixed up the patch title in git://repo.or.cz/git/vmiklos.git.

I have a very nearly identical patch in an ancient offshoot branch
since my attempt to make git-pull a builtin (which was stupid as
it doesn't do anything CPU-intensive apart from merging).

I likes it. For bonus points you could replace some strbuf_addf()
calls with strbuf_addstr() ones, but I don't think anyone really
cares.

So, fwiw,

[PATCH] git-fmt-merge-msg: make it usable from other builtins

[Miklos Vajna]

Move all functionality (except config and option parsing) from
cmd_fmt_merge_msg() to fmt_merge_msg(), so that other builtins can use
it without a child process.

All functions have been changed to use strbufs, and now only
cmd_fmt_merge_msg() reads directly from a file / writes anything to
stdout.

Hopefully this one has no unnecessary strbuf_addf() calls.

[PATCH 08/10] Introduce commit_list_append() in commit.c

[Miklos Vajna]

This is like commit_list_insert() but it appends the new commit to the
end of the list, rather than insert to the start of it.

Do you have a caller of this function that keeps a pointer to commit_list
that needs to be appended at the tail or inserted at the beginning
depending on the phase of the moon, or does the caller always append to
that list?

The later. I use it for appending a new parent for the merge commit and
after parsing a new remote head. In both cases I always append a list.

If that is the case, you might want to check how parse_commit_buffer() in
commit.c builds "parents" list.  It is a standard pattern to append to the
list using commit_list_insert() and that is the reason why it returns a
pointer.

In what sense is this "like show-branch --merge-base"?

The only similarlity I can spot is that it can take more than two heads,
but what it computes and the way it computes it seem to be different.  It
certainly looks much less efficient as it does not walk the ancestry chain
in one-go like show-branch does.

I haven't looked at [10/10] so I do not know yet how you intend to use
this value, but I am not sure if it makes sense to use the computed value
as the merge base when running an octopus.

When you want to merge A, B and C, because internally we always do
pairwise, you would first compute:

	T(A,B) == merge_3way(mb(A,B), A, B)

and then you would want to pick some merge base to merge that result with
C:

	T(A,B,C) == merge_3way(???, T(A,B), C)

I do not think using mb(mb(A,B),C) as ??? is necessary nor optimal.

          o---o---A
         /         .
    ----1---2---B...T(A,B)
             \       .
              o---C...T(A,B,C)

"1" above is mb(A,B) (i.e. the merge base between A and B) that you would
use when you merge A and B to compute an internal merge result T(A,B).
And "1" also is mb(mb(A,B),C).

But if you are doing 3-way merge to arrive at T(A,B,C) by merging T(A,B)
and C, don't you want to be using "2" as the merge base, not "1"?

The big comment on $MRC at the end of git-merge-octopus is about this
issue.  In earlier implementation, we used to use "1" to create T(A,B) and
then also used it to update the variable $MRC, which is used to compute
the merge base to use when the tentative tree T(A,B) is merged with the
other remote in the next round.  It was a mistake.

Ideally we should pick a better base between mb(A,C) and mb(B,C) (and if
we used mb(B,C) that's "2" and is a much better base than "1" when merging
T(A,B) and C).  Using mb(mb(A,B),C) means we are guaranteed to pick the
worst base for that last merge.

Something like this might be enough to get us started.  Instead of finding
out the merge bases between two commits, "one" and "two", this would find
merge base between "one" and a commit that would be a merge across all the
"two"s.  To apply it to the above example, you would give "C" as "one",
and "A" and "B" as "twos" to it, to compute "2".

Clever, but for performance reasons I think it might be better to use a 
commit list here.  This can be a local commit_list in the helper that 
calls merge_bases_many() for the two-head case.

Ah, now that is clever: I thought we would get into a lot of problems 
because we would need a bit for every initial commit.  But what you are 
basically doing is reusing PARENT2 for all the merge bases that have been 
found for the heads up to, but not including, the current one.

Maybe this should be documented.

But this is not yet enough, right?  You still have to have a loop

merge_bases <- calculate merge bases from the first two heads

foreach head starting from the 3rd one
	merge_bases <- calculate merge_bases_many(this_head, merge_bases)

No?

And these merge_bases are commit_lists, therefore, as mentioned above, the 
signature should not take an array, but the commit_lists.

I spoke too soon.  This is not going to work easily: after doing this for 
two heads, the PARENT1 flag must be reset to PARENT2 before traversing for 
a third head.

Or am I missing something obvious?

Why?  We do not iterate this that many times, and you do not gain much

That's not coming from being _clever_, but from solving a different
problem than what you thought we are solving.  This is _not_ computing the
"base of all of them" as "git-show-branch --merge-base" computes.

Instead, this is "compute '2' given C and A+B", without actually having to
have a commit T(A,B), for a merge to create T(A,B,C).

Instead of fabricating a commit T(A,B) and drop it as "two", you
drop "A" and "B" both marked as PARENT2 into the list and have the logic
traverse as before.

The purpose of this exercise is not doing the merge base computation for
an octopus in one round.  In fact, you do _not_ want to compute it
upfront.  Re-read the original message the above picture comes from to
remind you of why (and the loop with a big comment at the bottom of
git-merge-octopus).  This is for a better computation of $MRC in each
round there.

Here, n will be 0 and therefore commits will be xmalloc(0), right?

And here, commits will never be realloc()ed.

If merge_bases_many took a commit_list (yes, as I suggested to Junio), 
this transformation would not be necessary.

IIRC nothing in merge_bases_many() needed a commit array.

Oh, and whose responsibility is it to free "in"?  Caller or callee?  
(Because it is a non-const parameter, I would have expected the callee, 
but I think it makes more sense if the caller can do whatever she wants 
with the heads after calling octopus_merge_bases()).

Exactly. I modified merge_bases_many() to use a commit list.

The previous. I think using const would be a mistake since we do modify
the flags, but I still would prefer free the list in the caller, since
the list is still usable. That's exactly why the cleanup flag is there:
in case the non-empty objects flags would cause any problem later in the
caller.

I just looked at your f755fb6; from the point of view of merge_bases()
which is far more often used, I think this is not an improvement but
actively wrong thing to do.  Most of the time callers compute merge base
of two, and the codepath should be optimized for that case.

But how much work is

	struct commit_list list = { two, NULL };

	merge_bases_many(one, &list);

?  merge_bases_many() does not modify the list IIRC, and it looks 
conceptually clean while being pretty much in the same performance 
ballpark.

But (1) that is not what f755fb6 does; it does commit_list_insert() that
has an allocation, and (2) how much work is to count, allocate and pass
array for slow and less frequent codepath which octopus-merge-base is?

If (1) is the only problem, I can do it the way Dscho suggested, but I
don't exactly see why using a commit_list* can slow merge_bases() down:

for (i = 0; i < n; i++) {
        ...
}

is probably as fast as

for (i = list; i; i = i->next) {
        ...
}

in case n = 0 / list->next is NULL.

I suspect either me or you are confused, but how is this exactly used?

The code for merge_bases_many(), at least the one I showed you a few days
ago, is not a replacement for "show-branch --merge-base", and I do not
think you would want to use it as such in the rewrite of git-merge, if you
are trying to replace this part of git-merge.sh:

        case "$#" in
        1)
                common=$(git merge-base --all $head "$@")
                ;;
        *)
                common=$(git show-branch --merge-base $head "$@")
                ;;
        esac

The purpose of merge-base-many code was to improve this line in the
git-merge-octopus.sh:

	common=$(git merge-base --all $MRC $SHA1) ||
		die "Unable to find common commit with $SHA1"

Instead of keeping a single MRC, we can compute the merge-base-many
between the SHA1 (i.e. the one we are looking at right now -- it is fed as
"one") and all the previous SHA1's we have already looked at (they become
"two's"), like this:

	common($git merge-base-many $SHA1 $SHA1_SO_FAR)

and you would have at the end of the loop:

	SHA1_SO_FAR="$SHA1_SO_FAR$SHA1 "

or something.

Then I think I'm the one who is confused. My original
get_octopus_merge_bases() - in commit e13c0c2 - was exactly to replace
this part.

So, may I assume that the original get_octopus_merge_bases() is OK for
this purpose?

Actually I do not want to touch git-merge-octopus.sh before
builtin-merge is not ready. (I try to "do one thing and do it
well".)

Ah!  Even I thought that merge_bases_many() was meant for the show-branch 
--merge-base case.

However, your remark about optimizing for the two-head case got me 
thinking: should we not rather use the simple algorithm Miklos proposed 
for octopus_merge_bases(), even if it is suboptimal?

Octopus is such a rare case that it is more important to have a robust, 
working code, than a fast one, right?  Especially since Octopus will be 
exercized much less often, and therefore has a higher chance of hiding a 
bug.

Actually a quick glance at git-merge, a rather large case...esac after
that "show-branch --merge-base" tells me that we do not really use the
output from that operation and instead we check if we are fast-forward
from all the other heads by iterating over them.  merge-octupos would
accept it as the base but never looks at it.

So I think with a proper refactoring of the codepath you probably would
not even have to do the blanket "merge-base across all heads" at all.

I may be wrong but I think it would be still nice to pass a valid base
to the backend, even if _currently_ the only octopus implementation
ignores it.

Actually on "valid" I mean what my original get_octopus_merge_bases()
returned. :-)

IMO that is one of the advantages of making git-merge a builtin: you need 
not work around the lack of performance of shell scripts, but you can 
actually compute what you need to compute.

IOW I agree that we could give the proper list of merge bases to whatever 
octopus backend we use.  And since your original implementation is 
correct, if not super-optimal, I would like to stick to it.

Ah, you are right.  I thought that in the typical case (where the initial 
commits are independent), it will never traverse any commit twice.  I did 
not really understand your example quickly enough, so I made up my own:

A - B - C - D - E
  \           X
    F - G - H   I
      \   X   \
        J   \   K
             \
              - L 

Now, let's get the merge bases with Miklos' algorithm for E, I, K and L.

First it will find the merge base for E and I, which is D.  Then it 
calculates the merge base between that merge base and the third head, K, 
which leads us all the way back to A.

Now, calculating the merge base between that merge base and L will 
traverse the commits F, G and H _again_.

Exactly. The original idea was to avoid the current limitation:
show-branch uses object flags for each branch, which is not something
that works if you have a lot of ones.
