revision: --show-pulls adds helpful merges The default file history simplification of "git log -- <path>" or "git rev-list -- <path>" focuses on providing the smallest set of commits that first contributed a change. The revision walk greatly restricts the set of walked commits by visiting only the first TREESAME parent of a merge commit, when one exists. This means that portions of the commit-graph are not walked, which can be a performance benefit, but can also "hide" commits that added changes but were ignored by a merge resolution. The --full-history option modifies this by walking all commits and reporting a merge commit as "interesting" if it has _any_ parent that is not TREESAME. This tends to be an over-representation of important commits, especially in an environment where most merge commits are created by pull request completion. Suppose we have a commit A and we create a commit B on top that changes our file. When we merge the pull request, we create a merge commit M. If no one else changed the file in the first-parent history between M and A, then M will not be TREESAME to its first parent, but will be TREESAME to B. Thus, the simplified history will be "B". However, M will appear in the --full-history mode. However, suppose that a number of topics T1, T2, ..., Tn were created based on commits C1, C2, ..., Cn between A and M as follows: A----C1----C2--- ... ---Cn----M------P1---P2--- ... ---Pn \ \ \ \ / / / / \ \__.. \ \/ ..__T1 / Tn \ \__.. /\ ..__T2 / \_____________________B \____________________/ If the commits T1, T2, ... Tn did not change the file, then all of P1 through Pn will be TREESAME to their first parent, but not TREESAME to their second. This means that all of those merge commits appear in the --full-history view, with edges that immediately collapse into the lower history without introducing interesting single-parent commits. The --simplify-merges option was introduced to remove these extra merge commits. By noticing that the rewritten parents are reachable from their first parents, those edges can be simplified away. Finally, the commits now look like single-parent commits that are TREESAME to their "only" parent. Thus, they are removed and this issue does not cause issues anymore. However, this also ends up removing the commit M from the history view! Even worse, the --simplify-merges option requires walking the entire history before returning a single result. Many Git users are using Git alongside a Git service that provides code storage alongside a code review tool commonly called "Pull Requests" or "Merge Requests" against a target branch. When these requests are accepted and merged, they typically create a merge commit whose first parent is the previous branch tip and the second parent is the tip of the topic branch used for the request. This presents a valuable order to the parents, but also makes that merge commit slightly special. Users may want to see not only which commits changed a file, but which pull requests merged those commits into their branch. In the previous example, this would mean the users want to see the merge commit "M" in addition to the single- parent commit "C". Users are even more likely to want these merge commits when they use pull requests to merge into a feature branch before merging that feature branch into their trunk. In some sense, users are asking for the "first" merge commit to bring in the change to their branch. As long as the parent order is consistent, this can be handled with the following rule: Include a merge commit if it is not TREESAME to its first parent, but is TREESAME to a later parent. These merges look like the merge commits that would result from running "git pull <topic>" on a main branch. Thus, the option to show these commits is called "--show-pulls". This has the added benefit of showing the commits created by closing a pull request or merge request on any of the Git hosting and code review platforms. To test these options, extend the standard test example to include a merge commit that is not TREESAME to its first parent. It is surprising that that option was not already in the example, as it is instructive. In particular, this extension demonstrates a common issue with file history simplification. When a user resolves a merge conflict using "-Xours" or otherwise ignoring one side of the conflict, they create a TREESAME edge that probably should not be TREESAME. This leads users to become frustrated and complain that "my change disappeared!" In my experience, showing them history with --full-history and --simplify-merges quickly reveals the problematic merge. As mentioned, this option is expensive to compute. The --show-pulls option _might_ show the merge commit (usually titled "resolving conflicts") more quickly. Of course, this depends on the user having the correct parent order, which is backwards when using "git pull master" from a topic branch. There are some special considerations when combining the --show-pulls option with --simplify-merges. This requires adding a new PULL_MERGE object flag to store the information from the initial TREESAME comparisons. This helps avoid dropping those commits in later filters. This is covered by a test, including how the parents can be simplified. Since "struct object" has already ruined its 32-bit alignment by using 33 bits across parsed, type, and flags member, let's not make it worse. PULL_MERGE is used in revision.c with the same value (1u<<15) as REACHABLE in commit-graph.c. The REACHABLE flag is only used when writing a commit-graph file, and a revision walk using --show-pulls does not happen in the same process. Care must be taken in the future to ensure this remains the case. Update Documentation/rev-list-options.txt with significant details around this option. This requires updating the example in the History Simplification section to demonstrate some of the problems with TREESAME second parents.

Ok, this was nastier than expected, just because the dependencies between the different log-printing stuff were absolutely _everywhere_, but here's a patch that does exactly that. The patch is not very easy to read, and the "--patch-with-stat" thing is still broken (it does not call the "show_log()" thing properly for merges). That's not a new bug. In the new world order it _should_ do something like if (rev->logopt) show_log(rev, rev->logopt, "---\n"); but it doesn't. I haven't looked at the --with-stat logic, so I left it alone. That said, this patch removes more lines than it adds, and in particular, the "cmd_log_wc()" loop is now a very clean: while ((commit = get_revision(rev)) != NULL) { log_tree_commit(rev, commit); free(commit->buffer); commit->buffer = NULL; } so it doesn't get much prettier than this. All the complexity is entirely hidden in log-tree.c, and any code that needs to flush the log literally just needs to do the "if (rev->logopt) show_log(...)" incantation. I had to make the combined_diff() logic take a "struct rev_info" instead of just a "struct diff_options", but that part is pretty clean. This does change "git whatchanged" from using "diff-tree" as the commit descriptor to "commit", and I changed one of the tests to reflect that new reality. Otherwise everything still passes, and my other tests look fine too. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

log: use true parents for diff even when rewriting When using pathspec filtering in combination with diff-based log output, parent simplification happens before the diff is computed. The diff is therefore against the *simplified* parents. This works okay, arguably by accident, in the normal case: simplification reduces to one parent as long as the commit is TREESAME to it. So the simplified parent of any given commit must have the same tree contents on the filtered paths as its true (unfiltered) parent. However, --full-diff breaks this guarantee, and indeed gives pretty spectacular results when comparing the output of git log --graph --stat ... git log --graph --full-diff --stat ... (--graph internally kicks in parent simplification, much like --parents). To fix it, store a copy of the parent list before simplification (in a slab) whenever --full-diff is in effect. Then use the stored parents instead of the simplified ones in the commit display code paths. The latter do not actually check for --full-diff to avoid duplicated code; they just grab the original parents if save_parents() has not been called for this revision walk. For ordinary commits it should be obvious that this is the right thing to do. Merge commits are a bit subtle. Observe that with default simplification, merge simplification is an all-or-nothing decision: either the merge is TREESAME to one parent and disappears, or it is different from all parents and the parent list remains intact. Redundant parents are not pruned, so the existing code also shows them as a merge. So if we do show a merge commit, the parent list just consists of the rewrite result on each parent. Running, e.g., --cc on this in --full-diff mode is not very useful: if any commits were skipped, some hunks will disagree with all sides of the merge (with one side, because commits were skipped; with the others, because they didn't have those changes in the first place). This triggers --cc showing these hunks spuriously. Therefore I believe that even for merge commits it is better to show the diffs wrt. the original parents.

revision.c: use Bloom filters to speed up path based revision walks Revision walk will now use Bloom filters for commits to speed up revision walks for a particular path (for computing history for that path), if they are present in the commit-graph file. We load the Bloom filters during the prepare_revision_walk step, currently only when dealing with a single pathspec. Extending it to work with multiple pathspecs can be explored and built on top of this series in the future. While comparing trees in rev_compare_trees(), if the Bloom filter says that the file is not different between the two trees, we don't need to compute the expensive diff. This is where we get our performance gains. The other response of the Bloom filter is '`:maybe', in which case we fall back to the full diff calculation to determine if the path was changed in the commit. We do not try to use Bloom filters when the '--walk-reflogs' option is specified. The '--walk-reflogs' option does not walk the commit ancestry chain like the rest of the options. Incorporating the performance gains when walking reflog entries would add more complexity, and can be explored in a later series. Performance Gains: We tested the performance of `git log -- <path>` on the git repo, the linux and some internal large repos, with a variety of paths of varying depths. On the git and linux repos: - we observed a 2x to 5x speed up. On a large internal repo with files seated 6-10 levels deep in the tree: - we observed 10x to 20x speed ups, with some paths going up to 28 times faster.

revision: keep track of the end-user input from the command line Given a complex set of revision specifiers on the command line, it is too late to look at the flags of the objects in the initial traversal list at the beginning of limit_list() in order to determine what the objects the end-user explicitly listed on the command line were. The process to move objects from the pending array to the traversal list may have marked objects that are not mentioned as UNINTERESTING, when handle_commit() marked the parents of UNINTERESTING commits mentioned on the command line by calling mark_parents_uninteresting(). This made "rev-list --ancestry-path ^A ..." to mistakenly list commits that are descendants of A's parents but that are not descendants of A itself, as ^A from the command line causes A and its parents marked as UNINTERESTING before coming to limit_list(), and we try to enumerate the commits that are descendants of these commits that are UNINTERESTING before we start walking the history. It actually is too late even if we inspected the pending object array before calling prepare_revision_walk(), as some of the same objects might have been mentioned twice, once as positive and another time as negative. The "rev-list --some-option A --not --all" command may want to notice, even if the resulting set is empty, that the user showed some interest in "A" and do something special about it.

revision.c: begin refactoring --topo-order logic When running 'git rev-list --topo-order' and its kin, the topo_order setting in struct rev_info implies the limited setting. This means that the following things happen during prepare_revision_walk(): * revs->limited implies we run limit_list() to walk the entire reachable set. There are some short-cuts here, such as if we perform a range query like 'git rev-list COMPARE..HEAD' and we can stop limit_list() when all queued commits are uninteresting. * revs->topo_order implies we run sort_in_topological_order(). See the implementation of that method in commit.c. It implies that the full set of commits to order is in the given commit_list. These two methods imply that a 'git rev-list --topo-order HEAD' command must walk the entire reachable set of commits _twice_ before returning a single result. If we have a commit-graph file with generation numbers computed, then there is a better way. This patch introduces some necessary logic redirection when we are in this situation. In v2.18.0, the commit-graph file contains zero-valued bytes in the positions where the generation number is stored in v2.19.0 and later. Thus, we use generation_numbers_enabled() to check if the commit-graph is available and has non-zero generation numbers. When setting revs->limited only because revs->topo_order is true, only do so if generation numbers are not available. There is no reason to use the new logic as it will behave similarly when all generation numbers are INFINITY or ZERO. In prepare_revision_walk(), if we have revs->topo_order but not revs->limited, then we trigger the new logic. It breaks the logic into three pieces, to fit with the existing framework: 1. init_topo_walk() fills a new struct topo_walk_info in the rev_info struct. We use the presence of this struct as a signal to use the new methods during our walk. In this patch, this method simply calls limit_list() and sort_in_topological_order(). In the future, this method will set up a new data structure to perform that logic in-line. 2. next_topo_commit() provides get_revision_1() with the next topo- ordered commit in the list. Currently, this simply pops the commit from revs->commits. 3. expand_topo_walk() provides get_revision_1() with a way to signal walking beyond the latest commit. Currently, this calls add_parents_to_list() exactly like the old logic. While this commit presents method redirection for performing the exact same logic as before, it allows the next commit to focus only on the new logic.

Add "named object array" concept We've had this notion of a "object_list" for a long time, which eventually grew a "name" member because some users (notably git-rev-list) wanted to name each object as it is generated. That object_list is great for some things, but it isn't all that wonderful for others, and the "name" member is generally not used by everybody. This patch splits the users of the object_list array up into two: the traditional list users, who want the list-like format, and who don't actually use or want the name. And another class of users that really used the list as an extensible array, and generally wanted to name the objects. The patch is fairly straightforward, but it's also biggish. Most of it really just cleans things up: switching the revision parsing and listing over to the array makes things like the builtin-diff usage much simpler (we now see exactly how many members the array has, and we don't get the objects reversed from the order they were on the command line). One of the main reasons for doing this at all is that the malloc overhead of the simple object list was actually pretty high, and the array is just a lot denser. So this patch brings down memory usage by git-rev-list by just under 3% (on top of all the other memory use optimizations) on the mozilla archive. It does add more lines than it removes, and more importantly, it adds a whole new infrastructure for maintaining lists of objects, but on the other hand, the new dynamic array code is pretty obvious. The change to builtin-diff-tree.c shows a fairly good example of why an array interface is sometimes more natural, and just much simpler for everybody.

revision walker: Fix --boundary when limited This cleans up the boundary processing in the commit walker. It - rips out the boundary logic from the commit walker. Placing "negative" commits in the revs->commits list was Ok if all we cared about "boundary" was the UNINTERESTING limiting case, but conceptually it was wrong. - makes get_revision_1() function to walk the commits and return the results as if there is no funny postprocessing flags such as --reverse, --skip nor --max-count. - makes get_revision() function the postprocessing phase: If reverse is given, wait for get_revision_1() to give everything that it would normally give, and then reverse it before consuming. If skip is given, skip that many before going further. If max is given, stop when we gave out that many. Now that we are about to return one positive commit, mark the parents of that commit to be potential boundaries before returning, iff we are doing the boundary processing. Return the commit. - After get_revision() finishes giving out all the positive commits, if we are doing the boundary processing, we look at the parents that we marked as potential boundaries earlier, see if they are really boundaries, and give them out. It loses more code than it adds, even when the new gc_boundary() function, which is purely for early optimization, is counted. Note that this patch is purely for eyeballing and discussion only. It breaks git-bundle's verify logic because the logic does not use BOUNDARY_SHOW flag for its internal computation anymore. After we correct it not to attempt to affect the boundary processing by setting the BOUNDARY_SHOW flag, we can remove BOUNDARY_SHOW from revision.h and use that bit assignment for the new CHILD_SHOWN flag.

toposort: rename "lifo" field The primary invariant of sort_in_topological_order() is that a parent commit is not emitted until all children of it are. When traversing a forked history like this with "git log C E": A----B----C \ D----E we ensure that A is emitted after all of B, C, D, and E are done, B has to wait until C is done, and D has to wait until E is done. In some applications, however, we would further want to control how these child commits B, C, D and E on two parallel ancestry chains are shown. Most of the time, we would want to see C and B emitted together, and then E and D, and finally A (i.e. the --topo-order output). The "lifo" parameter of the sort_in_topological_order() function is used to control this behaviour. We start the traversal by knowing two commits, C and E. While keeping in mind that we also need to inspect E later, we pick C first to inspect, and we notice and record that B needs to be inspected. By structuring the "work to be done" set as a LIFO stack, we ensure that B is inspected next, before other in-flight commits we had known that we will need to inspect, e.g. E. When showing in --date-order, we would want to see commits ordered by timestamps, i.e. show C, E, B and D in this order before showing A, possibly mixing commits from two parallel histories together. When "lifo" parameter is set to false, the function keeps the "work to be done" set sorted in the date order to realize this semantics. After inspecting C, we add B to the "work to be done" set, but the next commit we inspect from the set is E which is newer than B. The name "lifo", however, is too strongly tied to the way how the function implements its behaviour, and does not describe what the behaviour _means_. Replace this field with an enum rev_sort_order, with two possible values: REV_SORT_IN_GRAPH_ORDER and REV_SORT_BY_COMMIT_DATE, and update the existing code. The mechanical replacement rule is: "lifo == 0" is equivalent to "sort_order == REV_SORT_BY_COMMIT_DATE" "lifo == 1" is equivalent to "sort_order == REV_SORT_IN_GRAPH_ORDER" Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

rev-list: make empty --stdin not an error When we originally did the series that contains 7ba826290a (revision: add rev_input_given flag, 2017-08-02) the intent was that "git rev-list --stdin </dev/null" would similarly become a successful noop. However, an attempt at the time to do that did not work[1]. The problem is that rev_input_given serves two roles: - it tells rev-list.c that it should not error out - it tells revision.c that it should not have the "default" ref kick (e.g., "HEAD" in "git log") We want to trigger the former, but not the latter. This is technically possible with a single flag, if we set the flag only after revision.c's revs->def check. But this introduces a rather subtle ordering dependency. Instead, let's keep two flags: one to denote when we got actual input (which triggers both roles) and one for when we read stdin (which triggers only the first). This does mean a caller interested in the first role has to check both flags, but there's only one such caller. And any future callers might want to make the distinction anyway (e.g., if they care less about erroring out, and more about whether revision.c soaked up our stdin). In fact, we already keep such a flag internally in revision.c for this purpose, so this is really just exposing that to the caller (and the old function-local flag can go away in favor of our new one).

add `ignore_missing_links` mode to revwalk When pack-objects is computing the reachability bitmap to serve a fetch request, it can erroneously die() if some of the UNINTERESTING objects are not present. Upload-pack throws away HAVE lines from the client for objects we do not have, but we may have a tip object without all of its ancestors (e.g., if the tip is no longer reachable and was new enough to survive a `git prune`, but some of its reachable objects did get pruned). In the non-bitmap case, we do a revision walk with the HAVE objects marked as UNINTERESTING. The revision walker explicitly ignores errors in accessing UNINTERESTING commits to handle this case (and we do not bother looking at UNINTERESTING trees or blobs at all). When we have bitmaps, however, the process is quite different. The bitmap index for a pack-objects run is calculated in two separate steps: First, we perform an extensive walk from all the HAVEs to find the full set of objects reachable from them. This walk is usually optimized away because we are expected to hit an object with a bitmap during the traversal, which allows us to terminate early. Secondly, we perform an extensive walk from all the WANTs, which usually also terminates early because we hit a commit with an existing bitmap. Once we have the resulting bitmaps from the two walks, we AND-NOT them together to obtain the resulting set of objects we need to pack. When we are walking the HAVE objects, the revision walker does not know that we are walking it only to mark the results as uninteresting. We strip out the UNINTERESTING flag, because those objects _are_ interesting to us during the first walk. We want to keep going to get a complete set of reachable objects if we can. We need some way to tell the revision walker that it's OK to silently truncate the HAVE walk, just like it does for the UNINTERESTING case. This patch introduces a new `ignore_missing_links` flag to the `rev_info` struct, which we set only for the HAVE walk. It also adds tests to cover UNINTERESTING objects missing from several positions: a missing blob, a missing tree, and a missing parent commit. The missing blob already worked (as we do not care about its contents at all), but the other two cases caused us to die(). Note that there are a few cases we do not need to test: 1. We do not need to test a missing tree, with the blob still present. Without the tree that refers to it, we would not know that the blob is relevant to our walk. 2. We do not need to test a tip commit that is missing. Upload-pack omits these for us (and in fact, we complain even in the non-bitmap case if it fails to do so).

gitweb.cgi history not shown This does: - add a "rev.simplify_history" flag which defaults to on - it turns it off for "git whatchanged" (which thus now has real semantics outside of "git log") - it adds a command line flag ("--full-history") to turn it off for others (ie you can make "git log" and "gitk" etc get the semantics if you want to. Now, just as an example of _why_ you really really really want to simplify history by default, apply this patch, install it, and try these two command lines: gitk --full-history -- git.c gitk -- git.c and compare the output. So with this, you can also now do git whatchanged -p -- gitweb.cgi git log -p --full-history -- gitweb.cgi and it will show the old history of gitweb.cgi, even though it's not relevant to the _current_ state of the name "gitweb.cgi" NOTE NOTE NOTE! It will still actually simplify away merges that didn't change anything at all into either child. That creates these bogus strange discontinuities if you look at it with "gitk" (look at the --full-history gitk output for git.c, and you'll see a few strange cases). So the whole "--parent" thing ends up somewhat bogus with --full-history because of this, but I'm not sure it's worth even worrying about. I don't think you'd ever want to really use "--full-history" with the graphical representation, I just give it as an example exactly to show _why_ doing so would be insane. I think this is trivial enough and useful enough to be worth merging into the stable branch. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

simplify_history:1,
revision: --show-pulls adds helpful merges The default file history simplification of "git log -- <path>" or "git rev-list -- <path>" focuses on providing the smallest set of commits that first contributed a change. The revision walk greatly restricts the set of walked commits by visiting only the first TREESAME parent of a merge commit, when one exists. This means that portions of the commit-graph are not walked, which can be a performance benefit, but can also "hide" commits that added changes but were ignored by a merge resolution. The --full-history option modifies this by walking all commits and reporting a merge commit as "interesting" if it has _any_ parent that is not TREESAME. This tends to be an over-representation of important commits, especially in an environment where most merge commits are created by pull request completion. Suppose we have a commit A and we create a commit B on top that changes our file. When we merge the pull request, we create a merge commit M. If no one else changed the file in the first-parent history between M and A, then M will not be TREESAME to its first parent, but will be TREESAME to B. Thus, the simplified history will be "B". However, M will appear in the --full-history mode. However, suppose that a number of topics T1, T2, ..., Tn were created based on commits C1, C2, ..., Cn between A and M as follows: A----C1----C2--- ... ---Cn----M------P1---P2--- ... ---Pn \ \ \ \ / / / / \ \__.. \ \/ ..__T1 / Tn \ \__.. /\ ..__T2 / \_____________________B \____________________/ If the commits T1, T2, ... Tn did not change the file, then all of P1 through Pn will be TREESAME to their first parent, but not TREESAME to their second. This means that all of those merge commits appear in the --full-history view, with edges that immediately collapse into the lower history without introducing interesting single-parent commits. The --simplify-merges option was introduced to remove these extra merge commits. By noticing that the rewritten parents are reachable from their first parents, those edges can be simplified away. Finally, the commits now look like single-parent commits that are TREESAME to their "only" parent. Thus, they are removed and this issue does not cause issues anymore. However, this also ends up removing the commit M from the history view! Even worse, the --simplify-merges option requires walking the entire history before returning a single result. Many Git users are using Git alongside a Git service that provides code storage alongside a code review tool commonly called "Pull Requests" or "Merge Requests" against a target branch. When these requests are accepted and merged, they typically create a merge commit whose first parent is the previous branch tip and the second parent is the tip of the topic branch used for the request. This presents a valuable order to the parents, but also makes that merge commit slightly special. Users may want to see not only which commits changed a file, but which pull requests merged those commits into their branch. In the previous example, this would mean the users want to see the merge commit "M" in addition to the single- parent commit "C". Users are even more likely to want these merge commits when they use pull requests to merge into a feature branch before merging that feature branch into their trunk. In some sense, users are asking for the "first" merge commit to bring in the change to their branch. As long as the parent order is consistent, this can be handled with the following rule: Include a merge commit if it is not TREESAME to its first parent, but is TREESAME to a later parent. These merges look like the merge commits that would result from running "git pull <topic>" on a main branch. Thus, the option to show these commits is called "--show-pulls". This has the added benefit of showing the commits created by closing a pull request or merge request on any of the Git hosting and code review platforms. To test these options, extend the standard test example to include a merge commit that is not TREESAME to its first parent. It is surprising that that option was not already in the example, as it is instructive. In particular, this extension demonstrates a common issue with file history simplification. When a user resolves a merge conflict using "-Xours" or otherwise ignoring one side of the conflict, they create a TREESAME edge that probably should not be TREESAME. This leads users to become frustrated and complain that "my change disappeared!" In my experience, showing them history with --full-history and --simplify-merges quickly reveals the problematic merge. As mentioned, this option is expensive to compute. The --show-pulls option _might_ show the merge commit (usually titled "resolving conflicts") more quickly. Of course, this depends on the user having the correct parent order, which is backwards when using "git pull master" from a topic branch. There are some special considerations when combining the --show-pulls option with --simplify-merges. This requires adding a new PULL_MERGE object flag to store the information from the initial TREESAME comparisons. This helps avoid dropping those commits in later filters. This is covered by a test, including how the parents can be simplified. Since "struct object" has already ruined its 32-bit alignment by using 33 bits across parsed, type, and flags member, let's not make it worse. PULL_MERGE is used in revision.c with the same value (1u<<15) as REACHABLE in commit-graph.c. The REACHABLE flag is only used when writing a commit-graph file, and a revision walk using --show-pulls does not happen in the same process. Care must be taken in the future to ensure this remains the case. Update Documentation/rev-list-options.txt with significant details around this option. This requires updating the example in the History Simplification section to demonstrate some of the problems with TREESAME second parents.

revision traversal: show full history with merge simplification The --full-history traversal keeps all merges in addition to non-merge commits that touch paths in the given pathspec. This is useful to view both sides of a merge in a topology like this: A---M---o / / ---O---B even when A and B makes identical change to the given paths. The revision traversal without --full-history aims to come up with the simplest history to explain the final state of the tree, and one of the side branches can be pruned away. The behaviour to keep all merges however is inconvenient if neither A nor B touches the paths we are interested in. --full-history reduces the topology to: ---O---M---o in such a case, without removing M. This adds a post processing phase on top of --full-history traversal to remove needless merges from the resulting history. The idea is to compute, for each commit in the "full history" result set, the commit that should replace it in the simplified history. The commit to replace it in the final history is determined as follows: * In any case, we first figure out the replacement commits of parents of the commit we are looking at. The commit we are looking at is rewritten as if the replacement commits of its original parents are its parents. While doing so, we reduce the redundant parents from the rewritten parent list by not just removing the identical ones, but also removing a parent that is an ancestor of another parent. * After the above parent simplification, if the commit is a root commit, an UNINTERESTING commit, a merge commit, or modifies the paths we are interested in, then the replacement commit of the commit is itself. In other words, such a commit is not dropped from the final result. The first point above essentially means that the history is rewritten in the bottom up direction. We can rewrite the parent list of a commit only after we know how all of its parents are rewritten. This means that the processing needs to happen on the full history (i.e. after limit_list()).

revision walker: Fix --boundary when limited This cleans up the boundary processing in the commit walker. It - rips out the boundary logic from the commit walker. Placing "negative" commits in the revs->commits list was Ok if all we cared about "boundary" was the UNINTERESTING limiting case, but conceptually it was wrong. - makes get_revision_1() function to walk the commits and return the results as if there is no funny postprocessing flags such as --reverse, --skip nor --max-count. - makes get_revision() function the postprocessing phase: If reverse is given, wait for get_revision_1() to give everything that it would normally give, and then reverse it before consuming. If skip is given, skip that many before going further. If max is given, stop when we gave out that many. Now that we are about to return one positive commit, mark the parents of that commit to be potential boundaries before returning, iff we are doing the boundary processing. Return the commit. - After get_revision() finishes giving out all the positive commits, if we are doing the boundary processing, we look at the parents that we marked as potential boundaries earlier, see if they are really boundaries, and give them out. It loses more code than it adds, even when the new gc_boundary() function, which is purely for early optimization, is counted. Note that this patch is purely for eyeballing and discussion only. It breaks git-bundle's verify logic because the logic does not use BOUNDARY_SHOW flag for its internal computation anymore. After we correct it not to attempt to affect the boundary processing by setting the BOUNDARY_SHOW flag, we can remove BOUNDARY_SHOW from revision.h and use that bit assignment for the new CHILD_SHOWN flag.

Implement line-history search (git log -L) This is a rewrite of much of Bo's work, mainly in an effort to split it into smaller, easier to understand routines. The algorithm is built around the struct range_set, which encodes a series of line ranges as intervals [a,b). This is used in two contexts: * A set of lines we are tracking (which will change as we dig through history). * To encode diffs, as pairs of ranges. The main routine is range_set_map_across_diff(). It processes the diff between a commit C and some parent P. It determines which diff hunks are relevant to the ranges tracked in C, and computes the new ranges for P. The algorithm is then simply to process history in topological order from newest to oldest, computing ranges and (partial) diffs. At branch points, we need to merge the ranges we are watching. We will find that many commits do not affect the chosen ranges, and mark them TREESAME (in addition to those already filtered by pathspec limiting). Another pass of history simplification then gets rid of such commits. This is wired as an extra filtering pass in the log machinery. This currently only reduces code duplication, but should allow for other simplifications and options to be used. Finally, we hook a diff printer into the output chain. Ideally we would wire directly into the diff logic, to optionally use features like word diff. However, that will require some major reworking of the diff chain, so we completely replace the output with our own diff for now. As this was a GSoC project, and has quite some history by now, many people have helped.

This allows "git log" to decide whether it wants to show diffs or not. - make setup_revision() also initialize the diffopt part of rev_info (which we had from before, but we just didn't initialize it) - make setup_revision() do all the "finishing touches" on it all (it will do the proper flag combination logic, and call "diff_setup_done()") Now, that was the easy and straightforward part. The slightly more involved part is that some of the programs that want to use the new-and-improved rev_info parsing don't actually want _commits_, they may want tree'ish arguments instead. That meant that I had to change setup_revision() to parse the arguments not into the "revs->commits" list, but into the "revs->pending_objects" list. Then, when we do "prepare_revision_walk()", we walk that list, and create the sorted commit list from there. This actually cleaned some stuff up, but it's the less obvious part of the patch, and re-organized the "revision.c" logic somewhat. It actually paves the way for splitting argument parsing _entirely_ out of "revision.c", since now the argument parsing really is totally independent of the commit walking: that didn't use to be true, since there was lots of overlap with get_commit_reference() handling etc, now the _only_ overlap is the shared (and trivial) "add_pending_object()" thing. However, I didn't do that file split, just because I wanted the diff itself to be smaller, and show the actual changes more clearly. If this gets accepted, I'll do further cleanups then - that includes the file split, but also using the new infrastructure to do a nicer "git diff" etc. Even in this form, it actually ends up removing more lines than it adds. It's nice to note how simple and straightforward this makes the built-in "git log" command, even though it continues to support all the diff flags too. It doesn't get much simpler that this. I think this is worth merging soonish, because it does allow for future cleanup and even more sharing of code. However, it obviously touches "revision.c", which is subtle.

This allows "git log" to decide whether it wants to show diffs or not. - make setup_revision() also initialize the diffopt part of rev_info (which we had from before, but we just didn't initialize it) - make setup_revision() do all the "finishing touches" on it all (it will do the proper flag combination logic, and call "diff_setup_done()") Now, that was the easy and straightforward part. The slightly more involved part is that some of the programs that want to use the new-and-improved rev_info parsing don't actually want _commits_, they may want tree'ish arguments instead. That meant that I had to change setup_revision() to parse the arguments not into the "revs->commits" list, but into the "revs->pending_objects" list. Then, when we do "prepare_revision_walk()", we walk that list, and create the sorted commit list from there. This actually cleaned some stuff up, but it's the less obvious part of the patch, and re-organized the "revision.c" logic somewhat. It actually paves the way for splitting argument parsing _entirely_ out of "revision.c", since now the argument parsing really is totally independent of the commit walking: that didn't use to be true, since there was lots of overlap with get_commit_reference() handling etc, now the _only_ overlap is the shared (and trivial) "add_pending_object()" thing. However, I didn't do that file split, just because I wanted the diff itself to be smaller, and show the actual changes more clearly. If this gets accepted, I'll do further cleanups then - that includes the file split, but also using the new infrastructure to do a nicer "git diff" etc. Even in this form, it actually ends up removing more lines than it adds. It's nice to note how simple and straightforward this makes the built-in "git log" command, even though it continues to support all the diff flags too. It doesn't get much simpler that this. I think this is worth merging soonish, because it does allow for future cleanup and even more sharing of code. However, it obviously touches "revision.c", which is subtle.

combine_merges:1,
log,diff-tree: add --combined-all-paths option The combined diff format for merges will only list one filename, even if rename or copy detection is active. For example, with raw format one might see: ::100644 100644 100644 fabadb8 cc95eb0 4866510 MM describe.c ::100755 100755 100755 52b7a2d 6d1ac04 d2ac7d7 RM bar.sh ::100644 100644 100644 e07d6c5 9042e82 ee91881 RR phooey.c This doesn't let us know what the original name of bar.sh was in the first parent, and doesn't let us know what either of the original names of phooey.c were in either of the parents. In contrast, for non-merge commits, raw format does provide original filenames (and a rename score to boot). In order to also provide original filenames for merge commits, add a --combined-all-paths option (which must be used with either -c or --cc, and is likely only useful with rename or copy detection active) so that we can print tab-separated filenames when renames are involved. This transforms the above output to: ::100644 100644 100644 fabadb8 cc95eb0 4866510 MM desc.c desc.c desc.c ::100755 100755 100755 52b7a2d 6d1ac04 d2ac7d7 RM foo.sh bar.sh bar.sh ::100644 100644 100644 e07d6c5 9042e82 ee91881 RR fooey.c fuey.c phooey.c Further, in patch format, this changes the from/to headers so that instead of just having one "from" header, we get one for each parent. For example, instead of having --- a/phooey.c +++ b/phooey.c we would see --- a/fooey.c --- a/fuey.c +++ b/phooey.c Signed-off-by: Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

/* Format info */
notes: break set_display_notes() into smaller functions In 8164c961e1 (format-patch: use --notes behavior for format.notes, 2019-12-09), we introduced set_display_notes() which was a monolithic function with three mutually exclusive branches. Break the function up into three small and simple functions that each are only responsible for one task. This family of functions accepts an `int *show_notes` instead of returning a value suitable for assignment to `show_notes`. This is for two reasons. First of all, this guarantees that the external `show_notes` variable changes in lockstep with the `struct display_notes_opt`. Second, this prompts future developers to be careful about doing something meaningful with this value. In fact, a NULL check is intentionally omitted because causing a segfault here would tell the future developer that they are meant to use the value for something meaningful. One alternative was making the family of functions accept a `struct rev_info *` instead of the `struct display_notes_opt *`, since the former contains the `show_notes` field as well. This does not work because we have to call git_config() before repo_init_revisions(). However, if we had a `struct rev_info`, we'd need to initialize it before it gets assigned values from git_config(). As a result, we break the circular dependency by having standalone `int show_notes` and `struct display_notes_opt notes_opt` variables which temporarily hold values from git_config() until the values are copied over to `rev`. To implement this change, we need to get a pointer to `rev_info::show_notes`. Unfortunately, this is not possible with bitfields and only direct-assignment is possible. Change `rev_info::show_notes` to a non-bitfield int so that we can get its address. Signed-off-by: Denton Liu <liu.denton@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

Ok, this was nastier than expected, just because the dependencies between the different log-printing stuff were absolutely _everywhere_, but here's a patch that does exactly that. The patch is not very easy to read, and the "--patch-with-stat" thing is still broken (it does not call the "show_log()" thing properly for merges). That's not a new bug. In the new world order it _should_ do something like if (rev->logopt) show_log(rev, rev->logopt, "---\n"); but it doesn't. I haven't looked at the --with-stat logic, so I left it alone. That said, this patch removes more lines than it adds, and in particular, the "cmd_log_wc()" loop is now a very clean: while ((commit = get_revision(rev)) != NULL) { log_tree_commit(rev, commit); free(commit->buffer); commit->buffer = NULL; } so it doesn't get much prettier than this. All the complexity is entirely hidden in log-tree.c, and any code that needs to flush the log literally just needs to do the "if (rev->logopt) show_log(...)" incantation. I had to make the combined_diff() logic take a "struct rev_info" instead of just a "struct diff_options", but that part is pretty clean. This does change "git whatchanged" from using "diff-tree" as the commit descriptor to "commit", and I changed one of the tests to reflect that new reality. Otherwise everything still passes, and my other tests look fine too. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

convert "enum date_mode" into a struct In preparation for adding date modes that may carry extra information beyond the mode itself, this patch converts the date_mode enum into a struct. Most of the conversion is fairly straightforward; we pass the struct as a pointer and dereference the type field where necessary. Locations that declare a date_mode can use a "{}" constructor. However, the tricky case is where we use the enum labels as constants, like: show_date(t, tz, DATE_NORMAL); Ideally we could say: show_date(t, tz, &{ DATE_NORMAL }); but of course C does not allow that. Likewise, we cannot cast the constant to a struct, because we need to pass an actual address. Our options are basically: 1. Manually add a "struct date_mode d = { DATE_NORMAL }" definition to each caller, and pass "&d". This makes the callers uglier, because they sometimes do not even have their own scope (e.g., they are inside a switch statement). 2. Provide a pre-made global "date_normal" struct that can be passed by address. We'd also need "date_rfc2822", "date_iso8601", and so forth. But at least the ugliness is defined in one place. 3. Provide a wrapper that generates the correct struct on the fly. The big downside is that we end up pointing to a single global, which makes our wrapper non-reentrant. But show_date is already not reentrant, so it does not matter. This patch implements 3, along with a minor macro to keep the size of the callers sane.

If this gets accepted, I'll do further cleanups then - that includes the file split, but also using the new infrastructure to do a nicer "git diff" etc. Even in this form, it actually ends up removing more lines than it adds. It's nice to note how simple and straightforward this makes the built-in "git log" command, even though it continues to support all the diff flags too. It doesn't get much simpler that this. I think this is worth merging soonish, because it does allow for future cleanup and even more sharing of code. However, it obviously touches "revision.c", which is subtle. I've tested that it passes all the tests we have, and it passes my "looks sane" detector, but somebody else should also give it a good look-over.

revision.c: Make --full-history consider more merges History simplification previously always treated merges as TREESAME if they were TREESAME to any parent. While this was consistent with the default behaviour, this could be extremely unhelpful when searching detailed history, and could not be overridden. For example, if a merge had ignored a change, as if by "-s ours", then: git log -m -p --full-history -Schange file would successfully locate "change"'s addition but would not locate the merge that resolved against it. Futher, simplify_merges could drop the actual parent that a commit was TREESAME to, leaving it as a normal commit marked TREESAME that isn't actually TREESAME to its remaining parent. Now redefine a commit's TREESAME flag to be true only if a commit is TREESAME to _all_ of its parents. This doesn't affect either the default simplify_history behaviour (because partially TREESAME merges are turned into normal commits), or full-history with parent rewriting (because all merges are output). But it does affect other modes. The clearest difference is that --full-history will show more merges - sufficient to ensure that -m -p --full-history log searches can really explain every change to the file, including those changes' ultimate fate in merges. Also modify simplify_merges to recalculate TREESAME after removing a parent. This is achieved by storing per-parent TREESAME flags on the initial scan, so the combined flag can be easily recomputed. This fixes some t6111 failures, but creates a couple of new ones - we are now showing some merges that don't need to be shown.

Implement line-history search (git log -L) This is a rewrite of much of Bo's work, mainly in an effort to split it into smaller, easier to understand routines. The algorithm is built around the struct range_set, which encodes a series of line ranges as intervals [a,b). This is used in two contexts: * A set of lines we are tracking (which will change as we dig through history). * To encode diffs, as pairs of ranges. The main routine is range_set_map_across_diff(). It processes the diff between a commit C and some parent P. It determines which diff hunks are relevant to the ranges tracked in C, and computes the new ranges for P. The algorithm is then simply to process history in topological order from newest to oldest, computing ranges and (partial) diffs. At branch points, we need to merge the ranges we are watching. We will find that many commits do not affect the chosen ranges, and mark them TREESAME (in addition to those already filtered by pathspec limiting). Another pass of history simplification then gets rid of such commits. This is wired as an extra filtering pass in the log machinery. This currently only reduces code duplication, but should allow for other simplifications and options to be used. Finally, we hook a diff printer into the output chain. Ideally we would wire directly into the diff logic, to optionally use features like word diff. However, that will require some major reworking of the diff chain, so we completely replace the output with our own diff for now. As this was a GSoC project, and has quite some history by now, many people have helped.

log: use true parents for diff even when rewriting When using pathspec filtering in combination with diff-based log output, parent simplification happens before the diff is computed. The diff is therefore against the *simplified* parents. This works okay, arguably by accident, in the normal case: simplification reduces to one parent as long as the commit is TREESAME to it. So the simplified parent of any given commit must have the same tree contents on the filtered paths as its true (unfiltered) parent. However, --full-diff breaks this guarantee, and indeed gives pretty spectacular results when comparing the output of git log --graph --stat ... git log --graph --full-diff --stat ... (--graph internally kicks in parent simplification, much like --parents). To fix it, store a copy of the parent list before simplification (in a slab) whenever --full-diff is in effect. Then use the stored parents instead of the simplified ones in the commit display code paths. The latter do not actually check for --full-diff to avoid duplicated code; they just grab the original parents if save_parents() has not been called for this revision walk. For ordinary commits it should be obvious that this is the right thing to do. Merge commits are a bit subtle. Observe that with default simplification, merge simplification is an all-or-nothing decision: either the merge is TREESAME to one parent and disappears, or it is different from all parents and the parent list remains intact. Redundant parents are not pruned, so the existing code also shows them as a merge. So if we do show a merge commit, the parent list just consists of the rewrite result on each parent. Running, e.g., --cc on this in --full-diff mode is not very useful: if any commits were skipped, some hunks will disagree with all sides of the merge (with one side, because commits were skipped; with the others, because they didn't have those changes in the first place). This triggers --cc showing these hunks spuriously. Therefore I believe that even for merge commits it is better to show the diffs wrt. the original parents.

revision.c: begin refactoring --topo-order logic When running 'git rev-list --topo-order' and its kin, the topo_order setting in struct rev_info implies the limited setting. This means that the following things happen during prepare_revision_walk(): * revs->limited implies we run limit_list() to walk the entire reachable set. There are some short-cuts here, such as if we perform a range query like 'git rev-list COMPARE..HEAD' and we can stop limit_list() when all queued commits are uninteresting. * revs->topo_order implies we run sort_in_topological_order(). See the implementation of that method in commit.c. It implies that the full set of commits to order is in the given commit_list. These two methods imply that a 'git rev-list --topo-order HEAD' command must walk the entire reachable set of commits _twice_ before returning a single result. If we have a commit-graph file with generation numbers computed, then there is a better way. This patch introduces some necessary logic redirection when we are in this situation. In v2.18.0, the commit-graph file contains zero-valued bytes in the positions where the generation number is stored in v2.19.0 and later. Thus, we use generation_numbers_enabled() to check if the commit-graph is available and has non-zero generation numbers. When setting revs->limited only because revs->topo_order is true, only do so if generation numbers are not available. There is no reason to use the new logic as it will behave similarly when all generation numbers are INFINITY or ZERO. In prepare_revision_walk(), if we have revs->topo_order but not revs->limited, then we trigger the new logic. It breaks the logic into three pieces, to fit with the existing framework: 1. init_topo_walk() fills a new struct topo_walk_info in the rev_info struct. We use the presence of this struct as a signal to use the new methods during our walk. In this patch, this method simply calls limit_list() and sort_in_topological_order(). In the future, this method will set up a new data structure to perform that logic in-line. 2. next_topo_commit() provides get_revision_1() with the next topo- ordered commit in the list. Currently, this simply pops the commit from revs->commits. 3. expand_topo_walk() provides get_revision_1() with a way to signal walking beyond the latest commit. Currently, this calls add_parents_to_list() exactly like the old logic. While this commit presents method redirection for performing the exact same logic as before, it allows the next commit to focus only on the new logic.

revision.c: use Bloom filters to speed up path based revision walks Revision walk will now use Bloom filters for commits to speed up revision walks for a particular path (for computing history for that path), if they are present in the commit-graph file. We load the Bloom filters during the prepare_revision_walk step, currently only when dealing with a single pathspec. Extending it to work with multiple pathspecs can be explored and built on top of this series in the future. While comparing trees in rev_compare_trees(), if the Bloom filter says that the file is not different between the two trees, we don't need to compute the expensive diff. This is where we get our performance gains. The other response of the Bloom filter is '`:maybe', in which case we fall back to the full diff calculation to determine if the path was changed in the commit. We do not try to use Bloom filters when the '--walk-reflogs' option is specified. The '--walk-reflogs' option does not walk the commit ancestry chain like the rest of the options. Incorporating the performance gains when walking reflog entries would add more complexity, and can be explored in a later series. Performance Gains: We tested the performance of `git log -- <path>` on the git repo, the linux and some internal large repos, with a variety of paths of varying depths. On the git and linux repos: - we observed a 2x to 5x speed up. On a large internal repo with files seated 6-10 levels deep in the tree: - we observed 10x to 20x speed ups, with some paths going up to 28 times faster.

commit-graph: check all leading directories in changed path Bloom filters The file 'dir/subdir/file' can only be modified if its leading directories 'dir' and 'dir/subdir' are modified as well. So when checking modified path Bloom filters looking for commits modifying a path with multiple path components, then check not only the full path in the Bloom filters, but all its leading directories as well. Take care to check these paths in "deepest first" order, because it's the full path that is least likely to be modified, and the Bloom filter queries can short circuit sooner. This can significantly reduce the average false positive rate, by about an order of magnitude or three(!), and can further speed up pathspec-limited revision walks. The table below compares the average false positive rate and runtime of git rev-list HEAD -- "$path" before and after this change for 5000+ randomly* selected paths from each repository: Average false Average Average positive rate runtime runtime before after before after difference ------------------------------------------------------------------ git 3.220% 0.7853% 0.0558s 0.0387s -30.6% linux 2.453% 0.0296% 0.1046s 0.0766s -26.8% tensorflow 2.536% 0.6977% 0.0594s 0.0420s -29.2% *Path selection was done with the following pipeline: git ls-tree -r --name-only HEAD | sort -R | head -n 5000 The improvements in runtime are much smaller than the improvements in average false positive rate, as we are clearly reaching diminishing returns here. However, all these timings depend on that accessing tree objects is reasonably fast (warm caches). If we had a partial clone and the tree objects had to be fetched from a promisor remote, e.g.: $ git clone --filter=tree:0 --bare file://.../webkit.git webkit.notrees.git $ git -C webkit.git -c core.modifiedPathBloomFilters=1 \ commit-graph write --reachable $ cp webkit.git/objects/info/commit-graph webkit.notrees.git/objects/info/ $ git -C webkit.notrees.git -c core.modifiedPathBloomFilters=1 \ rev-list HEAD -- "$path" then checking all leading path component can reduce the runtime from over an hour to a few seconds (and this is with the clone and the promisor on the same machine). This adjusts the tracing values in t4216-log-bloom.sh, which provides a concrete way to notice the improvement.

However, it should be noted that the guess can be completely off: I do a reasonable job estimating it, but it is not meant to be exact. So what happens is that you may get output like this: - at 0.1 seconds: Final output: 2 incomplete .. 2 commits listed .. - half a second later: Final output: 33 incomplete .. 33 commits listed .. - another half a second after that: Final output: 71 incomplete .. 71 commits listed .. - another half second later: Final output: 136 incomplete .. 100 commits listed: we hit the --early-output limit, and .. will only output 100 commits, and after this you'll not .. see an "incomplete" report any more since you got as much .. early output as you asked for! - .. and then finally: Final output: 73106 done .. all the commits ..

log: use true parents for diff even when rewriting When using pathspec filtering in combination with diff-based log output, parent simplification happens before the diff is computed. The diff is therefore against the *simplified* parents. This works okay, arguably by accident, in the normal case: simplification reduces to one parent as long as the commit is TREESAME to it. So the simplified parent of any given commit must have the same tree contents on the filtered paths as its true (unfiltered) parent. However, --full-diff breaks this guarantee, and indeed gives pretty spectacular results when comparing the output of git log --graph --stat ... git log --graph --full-diff --stat ... (--graph internally kicks in parent simplification, much like --parents). To fix it, store a copy of the parent list before simplification (in a slab) whenever --full-diff is in effect. Then use the stored parents instead of the simplified ones in the commit display code paths. The latter do not actually check for --full-diff to avoid duplicated code; they just grab the original parents if save_parents() has not been called for this revision walk. For ordinary commits it should be obvious that this is the right thing to do. Merge commits are a bit subtle. Observe that with default simplification, merge simplification is an all-or-nothing decision: either the merge is TREESAME to one parent and disappears, or it is different from all parents and the parent list remains intact. Redundant parents are not pruned, so the existing code also shows them as a merge. So if we do show a merge commit, the parent list just consists of the rewrite result on each parent. Running, e.g., --cc on this in --full-diff mode is not very useful: if any commits were skipped, some hunks will disagree with all sides of the merge (with one side, because commits were skipped; with the others, because they didn't have those changes in the first place). This triggers --cc showing these hunks spuriously. Therefore I believe that even for merge commits it is better to show the diffs wrt. the original parents.
