[PATCH 0/6] Sequencer fixups mini-series

[PATCH 0/6] Sequencer fixups mini-series

[Ramkumar Ramachandra]

Hi,

Now that the original sequencer series has hit 'master' (cd4093b6), we
can now build on it!  Unfortunately, as outlined in $gmane/179613,
there are several UI design difficulties that we need to surmount.  As
a prelude, I've decided to prepare this mini-series for fixing up a
few minor issues before attacking the problem; please see
$gmane/179304 for relevant discussions.

The differences are:
1. I've dropped the last two parts in the previous iteration.
2. Part 2 is new.  Thanks to Jonathan for the suggestion.
3. Minor fixups and commit message improvements in response to
reviews.

p.s- I'm travelling this week, and won't be able to respond to
reviews until the 16th.

Thanks.

[PATCH 1/6] revert: Free memory after get_message call

[Ramkumar Ramachandra]

The format_todo function leaks memory because it forgets to call
free_message after get_message.  It is a potentially big leak, because
fresh memory is allocated to store the commit message message for each
commit.  Fix this.

[PATCH 2/6] revert: Simplify getting commit subject

[Ramkumar Ramachandra]

The heavy parsing and memory allocations performed by get_message is
unnecessary when only the commit subject is desired.  Use
find_commit_subject instead.

[PATCH 3/6] revert: Fix buffer overflow in insn sheet parser

[Ramkumar Ramachandra]

Check that the commit name argument to a "pick" or "revert" action in
'.git/sequencer/todo' is not too long, to avoid overflowing an
on-stack buffer.  This fixes a regression introduced by 5a5d80f4
(revert: Introduce --continue to continue the operation, 2011-08-04).

[PATCH 4/6] revert: Make commit descriptions in insn sheet optional

[Ramkumar Ramachandra]

Change the instruction sheet format subtly so that a description of
the commit after the object name is optional.  As a result, an
instruction sheet like this is now perfectly valid:

  pick 35b0426
  pick fbd5bbcbc2e
  pick 7362160f

Since this is a part of clean-up series...

Do you even need to have a sha1_abbrev[] local array that is limited to 40
bytes here? The incoming _line_ is not "const char *start", so you should
at least be able to temporarily terminate the commit object name with NUL
(while remembering what byte there was before), give it to get_sha1(), and
then restore the byte at the end before returning from this function.

A bonus point would be to introduce a variant of get_sha1() that can take
(a pointer + len) not (a pointer to NUL terminated string). While I think
that would be a right thing to do in the longer term, it is outside of the
scope of this series.

Like this, perhaps.  I did this on top of the whole series only as a
demonstration but the change should be squashed into this step when the
series is rerolled.

[PATCH 5/6] revert: Allow mixed pick and revert instructions

[Ramkumar Ramachandra]

Parse the instruction list in '.git/sequencer/todo' as a list of
(action, operand) pairs, instead of assuming all instructions use the
same action.  So now, you can do:

  pick fdc0b12 picked
  revert 965fed4 anotherpick

For cherry-pick and revert, this means that a 'git cherry-pick
--continue' can continue an ongoing revert operation and viceversa.
This patch lays the foundation for extending the parser to support
more actions so 'git rebase -i' can reuse this machinery in the
future.  While at it, also improve the error messages reported by the
insn sheet parser.

[PATCH 6/6] revert: Simplify passing command-line arguments around

[Ramkumar Ramachandra]

From: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com>

The chief command-line argument parser, parse_args, currently parses
arguments into an (argc, argv) and lets prepare_revs, a later
function, turn it into a structure.  Change this so that callers of
the cherry-pick machinery will have to fill in an options structure
instead of crafting command-line arguments.

[rr: minor improvements, commit message]

Actually, I intended to put it in the commit message.  Seems to be
idiomatic: grep the log for "\[jc:" etc.

Thanks.

More important than the idiom is the intent.  Presumably that intent
was something like "I wrote the commit message, so if it makes you
scratch your head, blame me, not Jonathan; and I made some other
(minor) improvements, so consider blaming me even if it's the
functional part that makes you scratch your head."

Sorry I haven't had a chance to look over the patch yet.  Is it
supposed to introduce a behavior change, does it prepare for some
future change, or is it just a cleanup?

Exactly.

Prepare for some future change.  See $gmane/179282 for original discussion.

Thanks, but I shouldn't have had to ask.  Care to fix the commit
message? :)

Ah, yes- my persistent lack of clarity in commit messages :|
Hopefully, the next iteration will have better commit messages.
