Good job, and it does not seem to spend too many more cycles
either (it does slow it down a bit because it needs to do more
deltas, but that is to be expected).
Here is the average chain length and resulting pack size from
full repacking of git.git repository, with three versions.
Avg 6.20 6516kB (master)
Avg 5.97 5784kB (next, has 1/x version)
Avg 6.89 5536kB (this patch on top of next)
What's interesting is that the 1/x version shortens the chain
(i.e. decreased runtime cost) while producing smaller results,
compared to the master version. The story is the same on the
kernel archive.
Avg 5.82 113808kB (master)
Avg 4.76 108044kB (next, has 1/x version)
Avg 5.81 105768kB (this patch on top of next)

You really do not mean that.
If you told git a file matters, and have local modifications to
the file in the working tree that you have not run update-index
yet, merge and apply should be careful not to overwrite your
changes that is not ready while doing whatever thing they have
to do. And they are careful, because you have told git that
they matter, and the way you tell git that they matter is to
have entries for them in the index.

The first one is because at 1.3.0 I pulled everything from
"next" to "master".
Usually "next" incorporates topic branches that stem from
different commits on "master", and when a new topic is merged to
"next", it gets the updates to "master" up to that point along
with the new topic. When topics graduate (i.e. merged back) to
"master", they do so at different pace.
topic2 o---o---o---o---H---.
/ \ \
next -----------o---o---E---o---I-------B
/ / / \ \
topic1 / / o---D---. \ \
/ / / \ \ \
master ---G---o---C---o---o---F---o---o---A---X
The above illustration shows that two topics branched from
master were cooked in next. Topic 1 branched from master at C,
added two commits (its tip is at D), merged to next at E and
then later merged to master at F. Similarly, topic 2 branched
from master at G, added five commits (its tip is at H), merged
to next at I and then later merged to master at A.
When merging "next" into "master" by merging A and B to produce
X, tips of topics 1 and 2 (D and H, respectively) become the
merge base.
Merging "next" wholesale to "master" is hopefully a rare event,
but the seven bases you are seeing are the topic tips.
The other one is the other way around. From time to time,
"next" itself gets updates from "master" to keep it in sync with
fixes that occurred on "master" directly. Such a merge into
"next" will have this picture but the principles are the same.
topic2 o---o---o---o---H---.

next -----------o---o---E---o---I-------B---Y
/ / / \ /
topic1 / / o---D---. \ /

For me it is the other way, all my files matter but git can do

Yes I am aware of this one; I just haven't bothered to deal with
it.
It looks at two strings, "v1.3.3:Makefile" and "Makefile", and
says "they have different names -- they are renamed".

It's consistent from an implementation point of view, but not from the
(my?) user point of view. This is why I say I understand it for
git-ls-files. For the case of git-add even the usage and the man page
talk about <file>...
Clearly for the case of a whole subdirectory, or even ".", the
.gitignore file must override the pattern, but not for the case of a
pattern that is a single existing file.

Well, if shell expansion cannot find a file matching pattern, it uses
pattern as file name literaly.
It would be nice to have easy (git core porcelain level) way to add files
which match ignore pattern.

At this point, you have not told git that foo is a file that is
relevant on branch B, so git considers it a fair game to
overwrite.
At least, that was the original reasoning.
It happens not just during the ordinary "git-merge", by the way.
If you are on branch B that did not have 'foo', created 'foo'
and switched to branch A (which has 'foo') before telling the
index that you care about your version of 'foo' on branch B,
'foo' from branch A will overwrite your throwaway copy in the
working tree:
$ git branch
* master
$ git branch another
$ echo 'New file' >afile
$ git add afile
$ git commit -m 'Add afile'
$ git checkout another
$ ls afile
ls: afile: No such file or directory
$ echo 'Lost file' >afile
$ git checkout master
$ cat afile
New file
We acquired "git apply" which does take notice when you have
such an untracked file in the working tree that conflicts with
what it does to the index, and I think its behaviour sometimes
is more user friendly and safer than what the merge does
currently (but it irritates people some other times).
This is totally untested, but on top of "next" you could do
something like this, perhaps.
We _might_ want to do this conditionally, only when the user
asks, though. I dunno. Being able to blow away irrelevant
files is sometimes a good thing, so we _might_ want to have a
reverse logic to "git apply" that makes it blow away untracked
working tree files under "--index" option.

Well, the thing is, git-add doesn't really take a "file name", it takes a
filename _pattern_.
Clearly we can't add everything that matches the pattern, because one
common case is to add a whole subdirectory, and thus clearly the
.gitignore file must override the pattern.
So it's consistent that it overrides it also for a single filename case,
no?

Hi *,
When you try to add ignored files with the git-add command it
fails because the call to:
git-ls-files -z \
--exclude-from="$GIT_DIR/info/exclude" \
--others --exclude-per-directory=.gitignore
does not output this file because it is ignored. I know I can do it with:
git-update-index --add $ignored_file
I understand the behaviour of git-ls-files but I think it is no the
expected for git-add, at least for me.

Hi *,
In the case of:
- You merge from a branch with new files
- You have these files in the working directory
- You do not have these files in the HEAD.
The end result is that you lose the content of these files.
So an additional check for the merge is to check for these dirty
but not in HEAD files.
Here is a test that reproduce it. I expect the merge to fail and
with the content of foo being bar.
test_description='Test merge with local conflicts in new files'
. ./test-lib.sh
test_expect_success 'prepare repository' \
'echo "Hello" > init &&

In-Reply-To: <20060514001214.GB27946@ftp.linux.org.uk>
Use:
diff-remap-data <dir1> <dir2> >map
or
git-remap-data <git-diff arguments> >map
will build information for remapper,
git-remap <map> <options>
will do line numbers remapping.
git-remap is a filter. It takes map as argument and, in the simplest form,
will look at the lines in stdin that have form
<filename>:<number>:<text>
If the indicated line from old tree had survived into the new one, we will
get
N:<new-filename>:<new-number>:<text>
on the output. If it hadn't, we get
O:<filename>:<number>:<text>
Lines that do not have such form are passed unchanged.
Even that is already very useful for log comparison. E.g. if old-log is
from the old tree and new-log is from the new one, we can do
git-remap map <old-log >foo
git-remap /dev/null <new-log >bar
diff -u foo bar
and have the noise due to line number changes excluded (empty map means
identity mapping, so the second line will simply slap N: on all lines of
form <filename>:<number>:<text> in new-log).
Note that it's not just for build logs; the thing is useful for sparse logs,
grep -n output, etc., etc.
Behaviour described above is the default; what _really_ happens is
that we take lines of form
<original_prefix><filename>:<number>:<text>
and replace them with
<prefix_for_new><new-filename>:<new-number>:<text>
or
<prefix_for_old><filename>:<number>:<text>
Defaults are :", "N:" and "O:" resp.; what it gives us is the ability to
do multiple remappings. IOW, we can say
diff-remap-data old-tree newer-tree > map1
diff-remap-data newer-tree current-tree > map2
git-remap -o old: map1 <old-log | git-remap -p N: -o newer: -n current: map2>foo
and get lines that didn't make it into the newer tree marked with old: and
otherwise be unchanged, ones that made it to newer, but not the current to
be marked with newer: and have the filenames/line numbers remapped and ones
that made it all the way be marked with current: and remapped all the way
to current tree.
That's quite useful when you want to carry logs for a while, basically using
them as annotated TODO ("logs" here can very well be results of grep -n with
annotations added to them). You can have all still relevant bits stay with
the locations in text and see what had fallen out.
Note on relation to git:
* git-remap, despite the name, doesn't need git to work
* diff-remap-data doesn't need git to work
* git-remap-data _does_ need it. Aside of working on revisions in
git repository instead of a couple of directory trees, it generates slightly
better map than diff-remap-data does. I.e. it manages to remap more lines -
it does notice renames.
This stuff lives on ftp.linux.org.uk/pub/people/viro/remapper/; I'm not
sure what to do with it wrt distributing - submit for inclusion into
git, or leave that sucker standalone. It can be used without git, but
OTOH having it in git would make my life easier - I wouldn't have to
think about packaging it myself ;-)
Seriously,
a) feel free to play with it; hopefully it will be useful.
b) review and comments are welcome.
c) so would any thoughts regarding the right way to distribute it.

* [PATCH] improve depth heuristic for maximum delta size
From: Nicolas Pitre @ 2006-05-16 20:29 UTC (permalink / raw)
To: Junio C Hamano; +Cc: git
In-Reply-To: <7v4pzqhh3t.fsf@assigned-by-dhcp.cox.net>
This provides a linear decrement on the penalty related to delta depth
instead of being an 1/x function. With this another 5% reduction is
observed on packs for both the GIT repo and the Linux kernel repo, as
well as fixing a pack size regression in another sample repo I have.

You are right. However your formula converge towards 0.5 which is not
enough to be sure the bad effect with early eviction of max depth object
from the object window won't come back. I prefer this patch with a
formula converging toward 0.

I agree it is probably a good way to error by default, optinally
allowing to say "don't care". I do not think Linus would pull
from such a tree or trees branched from it into his official
tree, so I do not think we would need to worry about commits
with incomplete information propagating for this particular
"gitified mm" usage. But as a general purpose tool to produce
"gitified quilt series" tree, we would.
It depends on the expected use of the resulting gitified mm
tree.
If it is for an individual developer to futz with and tweak
upon, and the end result from the work leaves such a "gitified
quilt series" repository only as a patch form, then not having
to figure out and specify authorship information to many patches
is probably a plus; the information will not be part of the
official history recorded elsewhere anyway.
However, if it is to produce a reference git tree to point
people at, (i.e. the quiltimport script is run once per a series
by somebody and the result is published for public use), I would
imagine we would want to have the attribution straight, so if
the tool has to "guess", it should either error out or go
interactive and ask.

Well, yes, I agree. But, at least git-svn.txt says this:
BUGS
----
...
svn:keywords can't be ignored in Subversion (at least I don't know of
a way to ignore them).
I guess one might be able to reach that information through the svn API.
Or just propget svn:keywords and sed s/\$Id\(:[^$]*\)\$/$Id$/ all files
with keywords, for all relevant keywords. Eww.

There are two practical problems with this.
1) quilt does not force any authorship information to be preserved,
in the description, so this probably a common case. Although for
most users just needing to specify --author sounds reasonable.
2) There are currently 84 out of roughly 1322 patches in
2.6.17-rc4-mm1 that git-mailinfo cannot compute the author for.
Generally the information is there but in such an irregular form
that it cannot be automatically detected.
If we can resolve that problem I am willing to make it an error.
If we can't then sucking quilt patches into a git tree is much
less useful.
Given the ugliness in -mm making it an error to have an
non-attributed patch would result in people specifying --author
when they really don't know who the author is, giving us much
less reliable information.
Possibly what we need is an option to not make it an error so that
people doing this kind of thing in their own trees have useful
information.
The list of patches that git-mailinfo cannot find authorship
information for from 2.6.17-rc4-mm1 is included below. Mostly these
are either git trees splatted into a single file, or simply fixes
added by Andrew. But there are some like: gregkh-usb-usb-gotemp
that have no description at all and only the patch name records who
made the patch.
A really ugly case is acx1xx-wireless-driver patch, which
appears to have multiple authors and a serious history
before Andrew got it.

Isn't there some flag to svn to avoid keyword expansion, like "-ko" to
CVS?
Any import script definitely should avoid keyword expansion (and that's
true whether you end up wanting to use keywords or not).
(And yes, CVS is probably a bad example. Those "substitution modes" are
confusing as hell, and I don't know which one is the right one. Is it
"-ko" or "-kk"? Don't ask me, I'm CVS-illiterate. I don't know why the
current cvsimport uses -kk, and only does it conditionally. Whatever.)

Hi. I just ran into trouble with git-svn, related to a file
containing $Id$. Yes, I know $Id$ sucks and should be avoided,
and I'll be removing them shortly, but that doesn't change the
fact that the history contains files with them.
Just wanted to let you know of a workaround:
manually edit the relevant file in .git/git-svn/tree/ to
undo the $Id$ change, and git-svn fetch works again.
$ git-svn fetch

Please don't do this. Just error out. It would be horrible to have a quilt
import "succeed", and then later notice that some of the patches had
incorrect authorship attribution just because the import script didn't
check it, but just made it "unknown".
An un-attributed patch is simply not acceptable in any serious project.
It's much better to consider it an error than to say "ok".

From: Eric W. Biederman @ 2006-05-16 16:51 UTC (permalink / raw)
To: Junio C Hamano; +Cc: git
Importing a quilt patch series into git is not very difficult
but parsing the patch descriptions and all of the other
minutia take a bit of effort to get right, so this automates it.
Since git and quilt complement each other it makes sense
to make it easy to go back and forth between the two.

+'git-quiltimport' [--author <author>] [--patches <dir>]
+
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+Applies a quilt patchset onto the current git branch, preserving
+the patch boundaries, patch order, and patch descriptions present
+in the quilt patchset.
+
+For each patch the code attempts to extract the author from the
+patch description. If that fails it falls back to the author
+specified with --author. If the --author flag was not given
+the the author is recorded as unknown.
+
+The patch name is preserved as the 1 line subject in the git
+description.
+
+OPTIONS
+-------
+--author Author Name <Author Email>::
+ The author name and email address to use when no author
+ information can be found in the patch description.
+
+--patches <dir>::
+ The directory to find the quilt patches and the
