[PATCH 1/2] fast-export: deletion action first

[Miguel Torroja]

The delete operations of the fast-export output should precede any addition
belonging to the same commit, Addition and deletion with the same name
entry could happen in case of file to directory and viceversa.

The fast-export sorting was added in 060df62 (fast-export: Fix output
order of D/F changes). That change was made in order to fix the case of
directory to file in the same commit, but it broke the reverse case
(File to directory).

[PATCH 2/2] fast-export: DIFF_STATUS_RENAMED instead of 'R'

[Miguel Torroja]

Minor change to be consistent with the rest of the fast-export code.
DIFF_STATUS_RENAMED is defined as 'R'.

That explanation makes sense.

Perhaps we would want a test for the case you are fixing (to be sure it
is not re-broken), as well as confirming that we have not re-broken the
original case (it looks like 060df62 added a test, so we may be OK with
that).

So we sort deletions first. And the bit that the context doesn't quite
show here is that we then compare renames and push them to the end.
Everything else will compare equal.

Is qsort() guaranteed to be stable? If not, then we'll get the majority
of entries in a non-deterministic order. Should we fallback to strcmp()
so that within a given class, the entries are sorted by name?

Wait--we also allow renames?  Rename is like delete in the context
of discussing d/f conflicts, in that it tells us that the source
path will be missing in the end result.  If you rename a file "d" to
"e", then there is a room for you to create a directory "d" to store
a file "d/f" in.  Shouldn't it participate also in this "delete
before add to avoid d/f conflict" logic?

Again, very good point, especially with the existing comment in the
comparison function that explains why renames are shown last.

Hrm. Yeah, I agree that case is problematic. But putting the renames
early creates the opposite problem. If you delete "d/f" to make way for
a rename to a file "d", then that deletion has to come first.

So naively you might think that pure deletions come first, then renames.
But I think you could have dependencies within the renames. For
instance:

  git init
  mkdir a b c
  seq 1 1000 >a/f
  seq 1001 2000 >b/f
  seq 2001 3000 >c/f
  git add .
  git commit -m base

  git mv a tmp
  git mv b/f a; rmdir b
  git mv c/f b; rmdir c
  git mv tmp/f c; rmdir tmp

There's no correct order there; it's a cycle.

So I suspect that any reader that accepts renames needs to be able to
handle the inputs in any order (I'd also suspect that many
implementations _don't_, but get by because people don't do silly things
like this in practice).

Anyway. I don't think Miguel's patch needs to solve all of the lingering
rename cases. But I am curious whether it makes some rename cases worse,
because the depth-sorting was kicking in before and making them work.

I agree with you on both counts, and I care more about the second
sentence, not just "am curious", but "am worried".  I am not sure
that this patch is safe---it looked more like robbing peter to pay
paul or the other way around.  Fixing for one class of breakage
without regressing is one thing and it is perfectly fine to leave
some already broken case broken with such a fix.  Claiming to fix
one class and breaking other class that was happily working is quite
different, and that is where my "Wait, we also allow renames?" comes
from.

Yeah, I don't disagree. I am just curious first, then worried second. :)

If I had to choose, though, I'd rather see the order be reliable for the
no-renames case. IOW, if we must rob one peter, I'd rather it be the
renames, which already have tons of corner cases (and which I do not
think can be plugged for a reader which depends on the order of the
entries; the dependencies can be cycles).

Of course if we can make it work correctly in all of the non-cyclical
cases, all the better.

[PATCH] fast-export: deletion action first

[Miguel Torroja]

The delete operations of the fast-export output should precede any addition
belonging to the same commit, Addition and deletion with the same name
entry could happen in case of file to directory and viceversa.

As an equal comparison doesn't have any deterministic final order,
it's better to keep original diff order input when there is no prefer order
( that's done comparing pointers)

The fast-export sorting was added in 060df62 (fast-export: Fix output
order of D/F changes). That change was made in order to fix the case of
directory to file in the same commit, but it broke the reverse case
(File to directory).

The test "file becomes directory" has been added in order to exercise
the original motivation of the deletion reorder.

Re: [PATCH] fast-export: deletion action first

[miguel torroja]

The previous patch reorders the delete operations in fast-export
(preceding any other one), keeps renaming as last operations to
process (as original source code) and for any other operation it keeps
the same order as "diff"

The non deterministic reordering was one of the concerns when I first
sent the patch.
The behavior for the other corner cases pointed out by Jeff
(delete/rename dir/file ) are not tackled in this patch and the final
result is unknown.
