[PATCH/RFC v4 01/16] GSOC remote-svn

[Florian Achleitner]

Hi!

Thanks for the reviews!
This series contains the follwing improvements. 
I decided to summarize them here, sorted by topic instead of
attaching them to the patches.

all:
- remove all merge garbage and debugging legacy (hopefully).
- reviews: style
- reorder patches

remote-svn:
- review: refactor (fct -> fn), style
- fix command batch detection
- setup_git_dir, make non-gentle.
- die on unknown commands, instead of warning

contrib/svn-fe/Makefile, symlink:
- remove symlink-creating commit
- create symlink after linking remote-svn in Makefile
- the makefile is meant as a temporary solution. Therefore, it chooses
  openssl/sha1.h unconditionally.

argv_array:
- new patch: add argv_array_detach and argv_array_free_detached

transport-helper:
- use those new functions
- free argv always after finish_command.
- remove patch that containing unconditional activation of --export-marks
  --import-marks on fast-import command line.

remote-svn:
- instead use fast-import's 'feature' command to activate marks import/export.
- use a more decriptive path for storing marks files.

[PATCH/RFC v4 01/16] Implement a remote helper for svn in C.

[Florian Achleitner]

Enable basic fetching from subversion repositories. When processing
remote URLs starting with svn::, git invokes this remote-helper.
It starts svnrdump to extract revisions from the subversion repository
in the 'dump file format', and converts them to a git-fast-import stream
using the functions of vcs-svn/.

Imported refs are created in a private namespace at
refs/svn/<remote-name>/master.
The revision history is imported linearly (no branch detection) and
completely, i.e. from revision 0 to HEAD.

The 'bidi-import' capability is used. The remote-helper expects data
from fast-import on its stdin. It buffers a batch of 'import' command
lines in a string_list before starting to process them.

[PATCH/RFC v4 02/16] Integrate remote-svn into svn-fe/Makefile.

[Florian Achleitner]

Requires some sha.h to be used and the libraries
to be linked, this is currently hardcoded, because
this makefile is only a temporary solution.

Also create a symbolic link in the toplevel dir named
'git-remote-svn' to allow git to find the remote helper.

[PATCH/RFC v4 03/16] Add svndump_init_fd to allow reading dumps from arbitrary FDs.

[Florian Achleitner]

The existing function only allows reading from a filename or
from stdin. Allow passing of a FD and an additional FD for
the back report pipe. This allows us to retrieve the name of
the pipe in the caller.

[PATCH/RFC v4 04/16] Add argv_array_detach and argv_array_free_detached.

[Florian Achleitner]

Allow detaching of ownership of the argv_array's contents and
add a function to free those detached argv_arrays later.

This makes it possible to use argv_array efficiently with the
exiting struct child_process which only contains a member
char **argv.

Add to documentation.

[PATCH/RFC v4 05/16] Connect fast-import to the remote-helper via pipe, adding 'bidi-import' capability.

[Florian Achleitner]

The fast-import commands 'cat-blob' and 'ls' can be used by remote-helpers
to retrieve information about blobs and trees that already exist in
fast-import's memory. This requires a channel from fast-import to the
remote-helper.

remote-helpers that use these features shall advertise the new 'bidi-import'
capability to signal that they require the communication channel.
When forking fast-import in transport-helper.c connect it to a dup of
the remote-helper's stdin-pipe. The additional file descriptor is passed
to fast-import via its command line (--cat-blob-fd).
It follows that git and fast-import are connected to the remote-helpers's
stdin.

Because git can send multiple commands to the remote-helper on it's stdin,
it is required that helpers that advertise 'bidi-import' buffer all input
commands until the batch of 'import' commands is ended by a newline
before sending data to fast-import.
This is to prevent mixing commands and fast-import responses on the
helper's stdin.

[PATCH/RFC v4 08/16] remote-svn, vcs-svn: Enable fetching to private refs.

[Florian Achleitner]

The reference to update by the fast-import stream is hard-coded.
When fetching from a remote the remote-helper shall update refs
in a private namespace, i.e. a private subdir of refs/.
This namespace is defined by the 'refspec' capability, that the
remote-helper advertises as a reply to the 'capablilities' command.

Extend svndump and fast-export to allow passing the target ref.
Update svn-fe to be compatible.

[PATCH/RFC v4 09/16] Allow reading svn dumps from files via file:// urls.

[Florian Achleitner]

For testing as well as for importing large, already
available dumps, it's useful to bypass svnrdump and
replay the svndump from a file directly.

Add support for file:// urls in the remote url.
e.g. svn::file:///path/to/dump
When the remote helper finds an url starting with
file:// it tries to open that file instead of invoking svnrdump.

[PATCH/RFC v4 10/16] vcs-svn: add fast_export_note to create notes

[Florian Achleitner]

From: Dmitry Ivankov <divanorama@gmail.com>

fast_export lacked a method to writes notes to fast-import stream.
Add two new functions fast_export_note which is similar to
fast_export_modify. And also add fast_export_buf_to_data to be able
to write inline blobs that don't come from a line_buffer or from delta
application.

To be used like this:
fast_export_begin_commit("refs/notes/somenotes", ...)

fast_export_note("refs/heads/master", "inline")
fast_export_buf_to_data(&data)
or maybe
fast_export_note("refs/heads/master", sha1)

[PATCH/RFC v4 11/16] Create a note for every imported commit containing svn metadata.

[Florian Achleitner]

To provide metadata from svn dumps for further processing, e.g.
branch detection, attach a note to each imported commit that
stores additional information.
The notes are currently hard-coded in refs/notes/svn/revs.
Currently the following lines from the svn dump are directly
accumulated in the note. This can be refined on purpose, of course.
- "Revision-number"
- "Node-path"
- "Node-kind"
- "Node-action"
- "Node-copyfrom-path"
- "Node-copyfrom-rev"

[PATCH/RFC v4 13/16] remote-svn: add incremental import.

[Florian Achleitner]

Search for a note attached to the ref to update and read it's
'Revision-number:'-line. Start import from the next svn revision.

If there is no next revision in the svn repo, svnrdump terminates
with a message on stderr an non-zero return value. This looks a
little weird, but there is no other way to know whether there is
a new revision in the svn repo.

On the start of an incremental import, the parent of the first commit
in the fast-import stream is set to the branch name to update. All
following commits specify their parent by a mark number. Previous
mark files are currently not reused.

[PATCH/RFC v4 14/16] Add a svnrdump-simulator replaying a dump file for testing.

[Florian Achleitner]

To ease testing without depending on a reachable svn server, this
compact python script mimics parts of svnrdumps behaviour.
It requires the remote url to start with sim://.
Start and end revisions are evaluated.
If the requested revision doesn't exist, as it is the case with
incremental imports, if no new commit was added, it returns 1
(like svnrdump).
To allow using the same dump file for simulating multiple
incremental imports the highest revision can be limited by setting
the environment variable SVNRMAX to that value. This simulates the
situation where higher revs don't exist yet.

[PATCH/RFC v4 15/16] remote-svn: add marks-file regeneration.

[Florian Achleitner]

fast-import mark files are stored outside the object database and are therefore
not fetched and can be lost somehow else.
marks provide a svn revision --> git sha1 mapping, while the notes that are attached
to each commit when it is imported provide a git sha1 --> svn revision mapping.

If the marks file is not available or not plausible, regenerate it by walking through
the notes tree.
, i.e.
The plausibility check tests if the highest revision in the marks file matches the
revision of the top ref. It doesn't ensure that the mark file is completely correct.
This could only be done with an effort equal to unconditional regeneration.

Re: [PATCH/RFC v4 01/16] GSOC remote-svn

[Junio C Hamano]

Comments from mentors and people interested in remote helpers?

I did minimum line wrapping, typofix and small compilation fixes
and queued these on 'pu'; I think I saw one commit whose message
I didn't quite get what it was trying to say, and another that was
missing S-o-b (I left them untouched).

The result merged to 'pu' seems to fail 9020, by the way.

Thanks.

Should I provide a better version? I found the commit that I forgot to sign-
off, but I'm not sure which message you mean.

That's because contrib/svn-fe isn't built automatically if you call make in 
the toplevel dir. 
It dies with "fatal: Unable to find remote helper for 'svn'", because the 
helper is not built. We currently need to run make in contrib/svn-fe 
seperately.
That's a bit awkward.

Just checked how it works for svn-fe. It has a seperate test program (test-
svn-fe.c) which is in the toplevel dir and built here, while for svn-fe 
itself, it's the same as for remote-svn. 

Don't know what to do about that.

There was a one with "E.g:" followed by an incomplete sentence that
did not parse for me.  Can you fetch 'pu', run format-patch on your
topic and compare the output with what you sent to the list?

That indicates that one necessary patch to add logic to Makefile to
go and build that subdirectory, at least before running the test,
but possibly as part of the "all" target, is missing, isn't it?

Or you can add, at the beginning of your tests files that require
the contrib bit, to have something like

	if test -e "$GIT_BUILD_DIR/remote-svn"
        then
		test_set_prereq REMOTE_SVN
	fi

and protect your tests with the prerequisite, e.g.

	test_expect_success REMOTE_SVN 'test svn:// URL' '
        	...
	'

without changing the top-level Makefile.

Just to show how, here is what I did just now.

  (0) Store your 16-patch series and 5-patch series in a mbox;

  (1) Check where the tip of fa/vcs-svn topic is at.

      $ git log --oneline --first-parent master..pu | grep fa/
      2ce959b Merge branch 'fa/vcs-svn' into pu
      574ffe1 Merge branch 'fa/remote-svn' into pu

  (2) Check where the topic was based on.

      $ git log --oneline --first-parent master..2ce959b^2
      ...
      1385a48 Implement a remote helper for svn in C

  (3) Detach at the same base and apply the mbox from step (0).

      $ git checkout 1385a48^
      $ git am --whitespace=nowarn mbox

  (4) Format them (i.e. as the way you sent them, without my fixup)

      $ git format-patch --stdout master >./+fa-0

  (5) Format with my fixup

      $ git format-patch --stdout master..2ce959b^2 >./+fa-1

  (6) Compare them.  The differences are my fixups.

      $ diff -u ./+fa-0 ./+fa-1 | less

Patch #17 "vcs-svn: Add sha1 calculation to fast_export ..." was the
one with a sentence whose purpose was unclear to me.

By the time you see this message, the tip of "pu" may have been
updated with further updates, so please do not trust 2ce959b above.

Thanks.

Thanks for you guidance!
I'll base a new version on your fixups.

Just to make sure...

Please do _not_ use fixups as-is, but squash them into the
appropriate places where the problems they fix are first introduced.

Thanks.

What version would you prefer? Currently nothing in contrib/ is built by the 
toplevel Makefile..

The latter approach of running tests only for people who went to
contrib/vcs-svn and built things there may be more conservative.  I
could be persuaded either way.

Hi,

I think git-remote-svn should move out of contrib to the toplevel of
git.git (as I think I've mentioned before).  Since it's just a new git
command in incubation, I don't want the maintenance hassle of keeping
it in contrib/svn-fe.  It can be a test program for now (e.g.,
git-remote-testsvn).

Hope that helps,
Jonathan
