In a topic branch workflow, you often want to find the latest commit that
merged a side branch that touched a particular area of the system, so that
a new topic branch to work on that area can be forked from that commit.
For example, I wanted to find an appropriate fork-point to queue Luke's
changes related to git-p4 in contrib/fast-import/.
"git log --first-parent" traverses the first-parent chain, and "-m --stat"
shows the list of paths touched by commits including merge commits. We
could ask the question this way:
# What is the latest commit that touched that path?
$ git log --first-parent --oneline -m --stat master |
sed -e '/^ contrib\/fast-import\/git-p4 /q' | tail
The above finds that 8cbfc11 (Merge branch 'pw/p4-view-updates',
2012-01-06) was such a commit.
But a more natural way to spell this question is this:
$ git log --first-parent --oneline -m --stat -1 master -- \
contrib/fast-import/git-p4
Unfortunately, this does not work. It finds ecb7cf9 (git-p4: rewrite view
handling, 2012-01-02). This commit is a part of the merged topic branch
and is _not_ on the first-parent path from the 'master':
$ git show-branch 8cbfc11ecb7cf9
! [8cbfc11] Merge branch 'pw/p4-view-updates'
! [ecb7cf9] git-p4: rewrite view handling
--
- [8cbfc11] Merge branch 'pw/p4-view-updates'
+ [8cbfc11^2] git-p4: view spec documentation
++ [ecb7cf9] git-p4: rewrite view handling
The problem is caused by the merge simplification logic when it inspects
the merge commit 8cbfc11. In this case, the history leading to the tip of
'master' did not touch git-p4 since 'pw/p4-view-updates' topic forked, and
the result of the merge is simply a copy from the tip of the topic branch
in the view limited by the given pathspec. The merge simplification logic
discards the history on the mainline side of the merge, and pretends as if
the sole parent of the merge is its second parent, i.e. the tip of the
topic. While this simplification is correct in the general case, it is at
least surprising if not outright wrong when the user explicitly asked to
show the first-parent history.
Here is an attempt to fix this issue, by not allowing us to compare the
merge result with anything but the first parent when --first-parent is in
effect, to avoid the history traversal veering off to the side branch.

Recursion in a DAG is generally a bad idea because it could be very
deep. Be defensive and avoid recursion in mark_parents_uninteresting()
and clear_commit_marks().
mark_parents_uninteresting() learns a trick from clear_commit_marks()
to avoid malloc() in (dominant) single-parent case.

If the commit specified as the bottom of the commit range has a direct

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.
Prepare a separate array to keep track of what syntactic element was used
to cause each object to appear in the pending array from the command line,
and populate it as setup_revisions() parses the command line.

2. pseudo-options that must be parsed in order with their revision

The global options are taken care of by handle_revision_opt; the

The reflog-walking mechanism is based on the regular
revision traversal. We just rewrite the parents of each
commit in fake_reflog_parent to point to the commit in the
next reflog entry instead of the real parents.
However, the regular revision traversal tries not to show
the same commit twice, and so sets the SHOWN flag on each
commit it shows. In a reflog, however, we may want to see
the same commit more than once if it appears in the reflog
multiple times (which easily happens, for example, if you do
a reset to a prior state).
The fake_reflog_parent function takes care of this by
clearing flags, including SHOWN. Unfortunately, it does so
at the very end of the function, and it is possible to
return early from the function if there is no fake parent to
set up (e.g., because we are at the very first reflog entry
on the branch). In such a case the flag is not cleared, and
the entry is skipped by the revision traversal machinery as
already shown.
You can see this by walking the log of a ref which is set to
its very first commit more than once (the test below shows
such a situation). In this case the reflog walk will fail to
show the entry for the initial creation of the ref.
We don't want to simply move the flag-clearing to the top of
the function; we want to make sure flags set during the
fake-parent installation are also cleared. Instead, let's
hoist the flag-clearing out of the fake_reflog_parent
function entirely. It's not really about fake parents
anyway, and the only caller is the get_revision machinery.

Choice (3) works because both commits are listed on the command line.

"rev-list A..H" computes the set of commits that are ancestors of H, but
excludes the ones that are ancestors of A. This is useful to see what
happened to the history leading to H since A, in the sense that "what does
H have that did not exist in A" (e.g. when you have a choice to update to
H from A).
x---x---A---B---C <-- topic
/ \
x---x---x---o---o---o---o---M---D---E---F---G <-- dev
/ \
x---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---N---H <-- master
The result in the above example would be the commits marked with caps
letters (except for A itself, of course), and the ones marked with 'o'.
When you want to find out what commits in H are contaminated with the bug
introduced by A and need fixing, however, you might want to view only the
subset of "A..B" that are actually descendants of A, i.e. excluding the
ones marked with 'o'. Introduce a new option --ancestry-path to compute
this set with "rev-list --ancestry-path A..B".
Note that in practice, you would build a fix immediately on top of A and
"git branch --contains A" will give the names of branches that you would
need to merge the fix into (i.e. topic, dev and master), so this may not
be worth paying the extra cost of postprocessing.

Traditionally, "show" defaulted to "show --cc" (dense combined patch), but
asking for combined patch with "show -c" didn't turn the patch output
format on; the placement of this logic in setup_revisions() dates back to
cd2bdc5 (Common option parsing for "git log --diff" and friends,
2006-04-14).
This unfortunately cannot be done as a trivial change of "if dense
combined is asked, default to patch format" done in setup_revisions() to
"if any combined is asked, default to patch format", as "diff-tree -c"
needs to default to raw, while "diff-tree --cc" needs to default to patch,
and they share the codepath. These command specific defaults are now
handled in the new "tweak" callback that can be customized by individual
command implementations.

So far the last parameter to setup_revisions() was to specify the default
ref when the command line did not give any (typically "HEAD"). This changes
it to take a pointer to a structure so that we can add other information without
touching too many codepaths in later patches.
There is no functionality change.

The --cherry-pick logic starts by counting the commits on each side,
so that it can filter away commits on the bigger one. However, so
far it missed an opportunity for optimization: it doesn't need to do
any work if either side is empty.
This in particular helps the common use-case 'git rebase -i HEAD~$n':
it internally uses --cherry-pick, but since HEAD~$n is a direct
ancestor the left side is always empty.

Historically, any grep filter in "git log" family of commands were taken
as restricting to commits with any of the words in the commit log message.
However, the user almost always want to find commits "done by this person
on that topic". With "--all-match" option, a series of grep patterns can
be turned into a requirement that all of them must produce a match, but
that makes it impossible to ask for "done by me, on either this or that"
with:
log --author=me --committer=him --grep=this --grep=that
because it will require both "this" and "that" to appear.
Change the "header" parser of grep library to treat the headers specially,
and parse it as:
(all-match-OR (HEADER-AUTHOR me)
(HEADER-COMMITTER him)
(OR
(PATTERN this)
(PATTERN that) ) )
Even though the "log" command line parser doesn't give direct access to
the extended grep syntax to group terms with parentheses, this change will
cover the majority of the case the users would want.
This incidentally revealed that one test in t7002 was bogus. It ran:
log --author=Thor --grep=Thu --format='%s'
and expected (wrongly) "Thu" to match "Thursday" in the author/committer
date, but that would never match, as the timestamp in raw commit buffer
does not have the name of the day-of-the-week.

* jl/submodule-diff:
Performance optimization for detection of modified submodules
git status: Show uncommitted submodule changes too when enabled
Teach diff that modified submodule directory is dirty
Show submodules as modified when they contain a dirty work tree
Giving "Notes" information in the default output format of "log" and
"show" is a sensible progress (the user has asked for it by having the
notes), but for some commands (e.g. "format-patch") spewing notes into the
formatted commit log message without being asked is too aggressive.
Enable notes output only for "log", "show", "whatchanged" by default and
only when the user didn't ask any specific --pretty/--format from the
command line; users can explicitly override this default with --show-notes
and --no-notes option.
Parts of tests are taken from Jeff King's fix.

In the worst case is_submodule_modified() got called three times for
each submodule. The information we got from scanning the whole
submodule tree the first time can be reused instead.
New parameters have been added to diff_change() and diff_addremove(),
the information is stored in a new member of struct diff_filespec. Its
value is then reused instead of calling is_submodule_modified() again.
When no explicit "-dirty" is needed in the output the call to
is_submodule_modified() is not necessary when the submodules HEAD
already disagrees with the ref of the superproject, as this alone
marks it as modified. To achieve that, get_stat_data() got an extra
argument.

Similar to the command line arguments, after giving zero or more revs, you can
feed a line "--" and then feed pathspecs one at a time.
With this
(
echo ^maint
echo --
echo Documentation
) | git log --stat --oneline --stdin master -- t
lists commits that touch Documentation/ or t/ between maint and master.

This is necessary because we will later allow pathspecs to be fed from the
standard input, and pathspecs taken from the command line (and converted
via get_pathspec() already) in revs->prune_data too early gets in the way
when we want to append from the standard input.
Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
Move the logic to read revs from standard input that rev-list knows about
from it to revision machinery, so that all the users of setup_revisions()
can feed the list of revs from the standard input when "--stdin" is used
on the command line.
Allow some users of the revision machinery that want different semantics
from the "--stdin" option to disable it by setting an option in the
rev_info structure.
This also cleans up the kludge made to bundle.c via cut and paste.

I personally use "git bisect visualize" all the time when I bisect, but it
turns out that that is not a very flexible model. Sometimes I want to do
bisection based on all commits (no pathname limiting), but then visualize
the current bisection tree with just a few pathnames because I _suspect_
those pathnames are involved in the problem but am not totally sure about
them.
And at other times, I want to use other revision parsing logic, none of
which is available with "git bisect visualize".
So this adds "--bisect" as a revision parsing argument, and as a result it
just works with all the normal logging tools. So now I can just do
gitk --bisect --simplify-by-decoration filename-here
etc.

When we show a reflog, we have two ways of naming the entry:
by sequence number (e.g., HEAD@{0}) or by date (e.g.,
HEAD@{10 minutes ago}). There is no explicit option to set
one or the other, but we guess based on whether or not the
user has provided us with a date format, showing them the
date version if they have done so, and the sequence number
otherwise.
This usually made sense if the use did something like "git
log -g --date=relative". However, it didn't make much sense
if the user set the date format using the log.date config
variable; in that case, all of their reflogs would end up as
dates.
This patch records the source of the date format and only
triggers the date-based view if --date= was given on the
command line.

Previously, graph_is_interesting() did not behave quite the same way as
the code in get_revision(). As a result, it would sometimes think
commits were uninteresting, even though get_revision() would return
them. This resulted in incorrect lines in the graph output.
This change creates a get_commit_action() function, which
graph_is_interesting() and simplify_commit() both now use to determine
if a commit will be shown. It is identical to the old simplify_commit()
behavior, except that it never calls rewrite_parents().
This problem was reported by Santi Béjar. The following command
would exhibit the problem before, but now works correctly:
git log --graph --simplify-by-decoration --oneline v1.6.3.3
Previously git graph did not display the output for this command
correctly between f29ac4f and 66996ec, among other places.

Commit de435ac0 changed the behavior of --decorate from printing the
full ref (e.g., "refs/heads/master") to a shorter, more human-readable
version (e.g., just "master"). While this is nice for human readers,
external tools using the output from "git log" may prefer the full
version.
This patch introduces an extension to --decorate to allow the caller to
specify either the short or the full versions.

The option "QUIET" primarily meant "find if we have _any_ difference as
quick as possible and report", which means we often do not even have to
look at blobs if we know the trees are different by looking at the higher
level (e.g. "diff-tree A B"). As a side effect, because there is no point
showing one change that we happened to have found first, it also enables
NO_OUTPUT and EXIT_WITH_STATUS options, making the end result look quiet.
Rename the internal option to QUICK to reflect this better; it also makes
grepping the source tree much easier, as there are other kinds of QUIET
option everywhere.

For some reason, I ended up doing
git show HEAD~5..
as an odd way of asking for a log. I realize I should just have used "git
log", but at the same time it does make perfect conceptual sense. After
all, you _could_ have done
git show HEAD HEAD~1 HEAD~2 HEAD~3 HEAD~4
and saying "git show HEAD~5.." is pretty natural. It's not like "git show"
only ever showed a single commit (or other object) before either! So
conceptually, giving a commit range is a very sensible operation, even
though you'd traditionally have used "git log" for that.
However, doing that currently results in an error
fatal: object ranges do not make sense when not walking revisions
which admittedly _also_ makes perfect sense - from an internal git
implementation standpoint in 'revision.c'.
However, I think that asking to show a range makes sense to a user, while
saying "object ranges no not make sense when not walking revisions" only
makes sense to a git developer.
So on the whole, of the two different "makes perfect sense" behaviors, I
think I originally picked the wrong one. And quite frankly, I don't really
see anybody actually _depending_ on that error case. So why not change it?
So rather than error out, just turn that non-walking error case into a
"silently turn on walking" instead.

I do various statistics on git, and one of the things I look at is merges,
because they are often interesting events to count ("how many merges vs
how much 'real development'" kind of statistics). And you can do it with
some fairly straightforward scripting, ie
git rev-list --parents HEAD |
grep ' .* ' |
git diff-tree --always -s --pretty=oneline --stdin |
less -S
will do it.
But I finally got irritated with the fact that we can skip merges with
'--no-merges', but we can't do the trivial reverse operation.
So this just adds a '--merges' flag that _only_ shows merges. Now you can
do the above with just a
git log --merges --pretty=oneline
which is a lot simpler. It also means that we automatically get a lot of
statistics for free, eg
git shortlog -ns --merges
does exactly what you'd want it to do.
