* [PATCH] git-commit: add option --date-now
From: Michael Schubert @ 2011-12-21 14:56 UTC (permalink / raw)
To: git
Currently, Git doesn't provide an easy way to use the current date when
amending a commit or reusing an existing commmit with -C/-c. Therefore,
add --date-now.

The option --reset-author also resets the date. So 'git commit
--ammend --reset-author' does what 'git commit --amend --date-now'
would do in most cases. I was surpised when I tried 'git commit
--amend --date=now' that git didn't understand 'now' as a date, which
seems like a more obvious place to fix it.

* [PATCH] bash completion: use read -r everywhere
From: Thomas Rast @ 2011-12-21 15:54 UTC (permalink / raw)
To: git; +Cc: Junio C Hamano, Kevin Ballard
POSIX specifies
The read utility shall read a single line from standard input.
By default, unless the -r option is specified, backslash ('\')
shall act as an escape character...
Our omission of -r breaks the loop reading refnames from
git-for-each-ref in __git_refs() if there are refnames such as
"foo'bar", in which case for-each-ref helpfully quotes them as in
$ git update-ref "refs/remotes/test/foo'bar" HEAD
$ git for-each-ref --shell --format="ref=%(refname:short)" "refs/remotes"
ref='test/foo'\''bar'
Interpolating the \' here will read "ref='test/foo'''bar'" instead,
and eval then chokes on the unbalanced quotes.
However, since none of the read loops _want_ to have backslashes
interpolated, it's much safer to use read -r everywhere.

I really don't think Git wants yet-another-option for each use-case we
find, and accepting "now" as a date (either by hardcoding "now" as an
accepted value, or by running approxidate on the argument of --date).

Thanks!
May be Scott Chacon can provide you commit access to git-scm.com ;)
If you are interested in this of course.
For example wikipedia lists git-scm.com as website for git.

The manpage says <name> which might actually be a better word to use
everywhere, but having <branch> instead of <remote> can only lead to
confusion.
Looking through blame, the second line survived a typo fix and was
introduced in 2008 when clone was made a builtin. The script used to
say <name>. So it's clearly nothing urgent, but it bugged me, so I'm
sending a patch.

When you give refspecs from the command line like that, the default
refspec remote.github.fetch will not be used and what you configure there
is immaterial.

>>From git://github.com/kvaneesh/QEMU

Sounds sane.
Does "git cat-file -t FETCH_HEAD" report "tag" (it should)? After doing
that fetch and inspecting "git log -p ..FETCH_HEAD", you should be able to
do "git merge FETCH_HEAD" and it should be like you did "git pull github
for-anthony".

If the "for-anthony" name is ambiguous between branches and tags, then you
must disambiguate. I am guessing that the unqualified LHS "for-anthony" is
found in the branch namespace of the remote, and that is why RHS is qualified
with the same refs/heads/ prefix to store it to the branch namespace.
On the other hand, if "for-anthony" name is unambiguous, then you may have
found a bug. I cannot tell.

* Re: Patches for message-digest support
From: Bill Zaumen @ 2011-12-21 18:44 UTC (permalink / raw)
To: git, peff, pclouds
... sorry for an additional message. The patches I just sent
were based on commit 876a6f4991abdd72ea707b193b4f2b831096ad3c
(Update draft release notes to 1.7.9).
I should have also added that the function verify_commit was
tested via a compile-time option, but it is currently not used.
Its purpose is to verify that the (new) digest header in commit
messages is consistent with the commit's tree, parents, other
headers, and the commit message. For authentication, one
would want to sign the commit SHA-1 hash and the message digest
for the commit (which is stored separate from the commit object).
My patch doesn't do that, but there is a single function that
can be called to look up the digest, if one is present (which may
not be the case due to backwards compatibility issues) - I'd prefer
to have someone familiar with the signature code make any changes.
The version of Makefile in the patch turns off the commit message-digest
header because some of the test scripts won't run with it, due to
those encoding specific SHA-1 values and file lengths, but the test does
run far enough to have created and used a number of commits. I didn't
want to go to the trouble of updating the test scripts unless the patch
is actually going to get used - updating the scripts is a bit tedious
and you'd probably want to decide on the digest hash first.

Thanks.
As this script is specific to bash, it is secondary importance what POSIX
says. The "-r" option is important only because "bash" happens to follow
POSIX in this case. I'd like to see the early part of the message reworded
perhaps like this:
At various points in the script, we use "read" utility without
giving it the "-r" option that prevents a backslash ('\')
character to act as an escape character. This breaks e.g. reading
refnames from ...
Does this regress for zsh users in some ways, by the way?

That would make that warning go away, but I don't know if that changes
the semantics of the code. I was aiming not to change any code, just
to squash spurious warnings under Sun Studio.
We could also just wrap the whole function definition in the pragma,
which would make the code more readable since we wouldn't have 6 lines
of warning suppression in the middle of the function.
Or we could just drop this patch entirely, or rewrite the code. Your
pick.

Perhaps we can then just fold it into the first paragraph after the
POSIX quote, like
We use the 'read' command without -r, so that it treats '\' as an
escape character, in several places. This breaks the loop reading
refnames from git-for-each-ref in __git_refs() if there are refnames
such as "foo'bar", in which case for-each-ref helpfully quotes them as
in
Or some such. Do you want me to resend?
> Does this regress for zsh users in some ways, by the way?
I'm not one of them, but a quick googling for "zsh builtin read" turns
up that it has a dozen options, and -r means
-r
Raw mode: a \ at the end of a line does not signify line continuation.
I can't discern whether it treats \ special at all with or without -r.

No, thanks.
They volunteered to keep the site up to date and useful to the user
community and they have been doing a good job at it, and that is why we
advertise git-scm.com as the official site. A minor bug like this which I
know they are perfectly capable of fixing at their site is not a

Nah, The above as-is is perfectly fine.
By the way, this is not a problem with the patch, but the for-each-ref
loop is a poor example. Its --shell option is meant to produce a scriptlet
that can be evaled without the buggy processing loop you are fixing, i.e.
script=$(git for-each-ref --shell --format='
ref=%(refname:short)
ref=${ref#*/}
if [[ "$ref" == "$cur"* ]]
then
...
' refs/remotes/) &&
eval "$script"
is how it was designed to be used avoiding shell loops.

Thanks, that was all I wanted to know before deciding if I should apply
this directly to 'master' or cook in 'next' to give real zsh users a
chance to object or tweak it.

I'm curious of the use case where one wants "--date=now" but not
"--reset-author". Or is it simply that "--reset-author" is a less
obvious thing to try?
At any rate, if we are going to do that, I agree it should be spelled
"--date=now", and not "--date-now".

Well, earlier we skipped "if it is NUL return 1 and otherwise make sure it
is a directory separator" check and went directly into whatever happens
after we see a directory separator. The patch causes the same without goto.
If the code is too complex to confuse not so bright compilers, it is
likely to confuse no so bright humans as well, and rewriting the logic in
a more straightforward way to help humans is independently a good thing.
I am not particularly interested in squashing spurious warnings, but if it
falls out of a side effect of helping humans, I wouldn't object to it.

Git v1.7.8.1 Release Notes
==========================
Fixes since v1.7.8
------------------
* In some codepaths (notably, checkout and merge), the ignore patterns
recorded in $GIT_DIR/info/exclude were not honored. They now are.
* "git apply --check" did not error out when given an empty input
without any patch.
* "git archive" mistakenly allowed remote clients to ask for commits
that are not at the tip of any ref.
* "git checkout" and "git merge" treated in-tree .gitignore and exclude
file in $GIT_DIR/info/ directory inconsistently when deciding which
untracked files are ignored and expendable.
* LF-to-CRLF streaming filter used when checking out a large-ish blob
fell into an infinite loop with a rare input.
* The function header pattern for files with "diff=cpp" attribute did
not consider "type *funcname(type param1,..." as the beginning of a
function.
* The error message from "git diff" and "git status" when they fail
to inspect changes in submodules did not report which submodule they
had trouble with.
* After fetching from a remote that has very long refname, the reporting
output could have corrupted by overrunning a static buffer.
* "git pack-objects" avoids creating cyclic dependencies among deltas
when seeing a broken packfile that records the same object in both
the deflated form and as a delta.
Also contains minor fixes and documentation updates.

The technique Randal described sounds like the 'vendor code drop' method
described in the git-rm manpage. There you will find detailed
instructions on the best way to 'erase' the previous version and drop in
a tarball of the 'newer' version.
Hope this helps.

Note that Randal's solution leaves with a branch named Release that has
the history of the generic version of your software, and various
custom(er) branches that fork from the Release branch...

Note that you don't have to make everyone run the same version. At my
shop we maintain dozens of concurrent divergent versions and that is the
main reason we chose git. We can maintain a generic version (which most
clients run) and also custom branches (for clients wanting to pay for
customizations) forked off of the generic branch. The custom branches
can periodically have the generic branch merged in to obtain the generic
fixes/enhancements. You can also merge the custom branches into the
generic branch if you want those custom features included in a new
release of the generic branch.

If your logos are graphical files they are likely considered 'large
files' and are likely binary files in the context of git. It is
recommended you maintain these in a separate repository to keep them
from bogging down your main repo (performance and storage). You can
make the logo repo a submodule of the main repo (source repo). This
would then make your main repo a 'super project' (contains submodules)
in git terminology. Alternatively, I think your source repo and logo
repo can just both be submodules of a super project.
We are working on implementing this so some of what I said is
theoretical. Custom branches in combination with submodules seems like
it could get pretty unwieldy if not managed properly.
Some things to look into.
