After importing anything with fast-import, we should always let the garbage collector do its job, since the objects are written to disk inefficiently. This brings down an initial import of http://selenic.com/hg from about 230 megabytes to about 14. In the future, we may want to make this configurable on a per-remote basis, or maybe teach fast-import about it in the first place. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <[email protected]>
On Windows, there are several categories of absolute paths. One such category starts with a backslash and is implicitly relative to the drive associated with the current working directory. Example: c: git clone https://github.com/git-for-windows/git \G4W should clone into C:\G4W. There is currently a problem with that, in that mingw_mktemp() does not expect the _wmktemp() function to prefix the absolute path with the drive prefix, and as a consequence, the resulting path does not fit into the originally-passed string buffer. The symptom is a "Result too large" error. Reported by Juan Carlos Arevalo Baeza. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <[email protected]>
MinGit for Windows comes without `gzip` bundled inside, git-archive uses `gzip -cn` to compress tar files but for this to work, gzip needs to be present on the host system. In the next commit, we will change the gzip compression so that we no longer spawn `gzip` but let zlib perform the compression in the same process instead. In preparation for this, we consolidate all the block writes into a single function.

To avoid running into command line limitations, some of Git's commands support the `--stdin` option. Let's use exactly this option in the three rev-list/log invocations in gitk that would otherwise possibly run the danger of trying to invoke a too-long command line. While it is easy to redirect either stdin or stdout in Tcl/Tk scripts, what we need here is both. We need to capture the output, yet we also need to pipe in the revs/files arguments via stdin (because stdin does not have any limit, unlike the command line). To help this, we use the neat Tcl feature where you can capture stdout and at the same time feed a fixed string as stdin to the spawned process. One non-obvious aspect about this change is that the `--stdin` option allows to specify revs, the double-dash, and files, but *no* other options such as `--not`. This is addressed by prefixing the "negative" revs with `^` explicitly rather than relying on the `--not` option (thanks for coming up with that idea, Max!).

From the documentation of said setting: This boolean will enable fsync() when writing object files. This is a total waste of time and effort on a filesystem that orders data writes properly, but can be useful for filesystems that do not use journalling (traditional UNIX filesystems) or that only journal metadata and not file contents (OS X’s HFS+, or Linux ext3 with "data=writeback"). The most common file system on Windows (NTFS) does not guarantee that order, therefore a sudden loss of power (or any other event causing an unclean shutdown) would cause corrupt files (i.e. files filled with NULs). Therefore we need to change the default. Note that the documentation makes it sound as if this causes really bad performance. In reality, writing loose objects is something that is done only rarely, and only a handful of files at a time. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <[email protected]>
It seems to be not exactly rare on Windows to install NTFS junction points (the equivalent of "bind mounts" on Linux/Unix) in worktrees, e.g. to map some development tools into a subdirectory. In such a scenario, it is pretty horrible if `git clean -dfx` traverses into the mapped directory and starts to "clean up". Let's just not do that. Let's make sure before we traverse into a directory that it is not a mount point (or junction). This addresses git-for-windows#607 Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <[email protected]>

Windows' equivalent to "bind mounts", NTFS junction points, can be unlinked without affecting the mount target. This is clearly what users expect to happen when they call `git clean -dfx` in a worktree that contains NTFS junction points: the junction should be removed, and the target directory of said junction should be left alone (unless it is inside the worktree).

Git for Windows' prefix is `/mingw64/` (or `/mingw32/` for 32-bit versions), therefore the system config is located at the clunky location `C:\Program Files\Git\mingw64\etc\gitconfig`. This moves the system config into a more logical location: the `mingw64` part of `C:\Program Files\Git\mingw64\etc\gitconfig` never made sense, as it is a mere implementation detail. Let's skip the `mingw64` part and move this to `C:\Program Files\Git\etc\gitconfig`. Side note: in the rare (and not recommended) case a user chooses to install 32-bit Git for Windows on a 64-bit system, the path will of course be `C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\etc\gitconfig`. Background: During the Git for Windows v1.x days, the system config was located at `C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\etc\gitconfig`. With Git for Windows v2.x, it moved to `C:\Program Files\Git\mingw64\gitconfig` (or `C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\mingw32\gitconfig`). Rather than fixing it back then, we tried to introduce a "Windows-wide" config, but that never caught on. Likewise, we move the system `gitattributes` into the same directory. Obviously, we are cautious to do this only for the known install locations `/mingw64` and `/mingw32`; If anybody wants to override that while building their version of Git (e.g. via `make prefix=$HOME`), we leave the default location of the system config and gitattributes alone. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <[email protected]>
Git for Windows is compiled with a runtime prefix, and that runtime prefix is typically `C:/Program Files/Git/mingw64`. As we want the system gitconfig to live in the sibling directory `etc`, we define the relative path as `../etc/gitconfig`. However, as reported by Philip Oakley, the output of `git config --show-origin --system -l` looks rather ugly, as it shows the path as `file:C:/Program Files/Git/mingw64/../etc/gitconfig`, i.e. with the `mingw64/../` part. By normalizing the path, we get a prettier path. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <[email protected]>

Since commit 0c499ea the send-pack builtin uses the side-band-64k capability if advertised by the server. Unfortunately this breaks pushing over the dump git protocol if used over a network connection. The detailed reasons for this breakage are (by courtesy of Jeff Preshing, quoted from ttps://groups.google.com/d/msg/msysgit/at8D7J-h7mw/eaLujILGUWoJ): ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- MinGW wraps Windows sockets in CRT file descriptors in order to mimic the functionality of POSIX sockets. This causes msvcrt.dll to treat sockets as Installable File System (IFS) handles, calling ReadFile, WriteFile, DuplicateHandle and CloseHandle on them. This approach works well in simple cases on recent versions of Windows, but does not support all usage patterns. In particular, using this approach, any attempt to read & write concurrently on the same socket (from one or more processes) will deadlock in a scenario where the read waits for a response from the server which is only invoked after the write. This is what send_pack currently attempts to do in the use_sideband codepath. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- The new config option "sendpack.sideband" allows to override the side-band-64k capability of the server, and thus makes the dump git protocol work. Other transportation methods like ssh and http/https still benefit from the sideband channel, therefore the default value of "sendpack.sideband" is still true.

The winsock2 library provides functions that work on different data types than file descriptors, therefore we wrap them. But that is not the only difference: they also do not set `errno` but expect the callers to enquire about errors via `WSAGetLastError()`. Let's translate that into appropriate `errno` values whenever the socket operations fail so that Git's code base does not have to change its expectations.

As pointed out in git-for-windows#1676, the `git rev-parse --is-inside-work-tree` command currently fails when the current directory's path contains symbolic links. The underlying reason for this bug is that `getcwd()` is supposed to resolve symbolic links, but our `mingw_getcwd()` implementation did not. We do have all the building blocks for that, though: the `GetFinalPathByHandleW()` function will resolve symbolic links. However, we only called that function if `GetLongPathNameW()` failed, for historical reasons: the latter function was supported for a long time, but the former API function was introduced only with Windows Vista, and we used to support also Windows XP. With that support having been dropped, we are free to call the symbolic link-resolving function right away. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <[email protected]>
A change between versions 2.4.1 and 2.6.0 of the MSYS2 runtime modified how Cygwin's runtime (and hence Git for Windows' MSYS2 runtime derivative) handles locales: d16a56306d (Consolidate wctomb/mbtowc calls for POSIX-1.2008, 2016-07-20). An unintended side-effect is that "cold-calling" into the POSIX emulation will start with a locale based on the current code page, something that Git for Windows is very ill-prepared for, as it expects to be able to pass a command-line containing non-ASCII characters to the shell without having those characters munged. One symptom of this behavior: when `git clone` or `git fetch` shell out to call `git-upload-pack` with a path that contains non-ASCII characters, the shell tried to interpret the entire command-line (including command-line parameters) as executable path, which obviously must fail. This fixes git-for-windows#1036 Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <[email protected]>
NTFS junctions are somewhat similar in spirit to Unix bind mounts: they point to a different directory and are resolved by the filesystem driver. As such, they appear to `lstat()` as if they are directories, not as if they are symbolic links. _Any_ user can create junctions, while symbolic links can only be created by non-administrators in Developer Mode on Windows 10. Hence NTFS junctions are much more common "in the wild" than NTFS symbolic links. It was reported in git-for-windows#2481 that adding files via an absolute path that traverses an NTFS junction: since 1e64d18 (mingw: do resolve symlinks in `getcwd()`), we resolve not only symbolic links but also NTFS junctions when determining the absolute path of the current directory. The same is not true for `git add <file>`, where symbolic links are resolved in `<file>`, but not NTFS junctions. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <[email protected]>
Git for Windows wants to add `git.exe` to the users' `PATH`, without cluttering the latter with unnecessary executables such as `wish.exe`. To that end, it invented the concept of its "Git wrapper", i.e. a tiny executable located in `C:\Program Files\Git\cmd\git.exe` (originally a CMD script) whose sole purpose is to set up a couple of environment variables and then spawn the _actual_ `git.exe` (which nowadays lives in `C:\Program Files\Git\mingw64\bin\git.exe` for 64-bit, and the obvious equivalent for 32-bit installations). Currently, the following environment variables are set unless already initialized: - `MSYSTEM`, to make sure that the MSYS2 Bash and the MSYS2 Perl interpreter behave as expected, and - `PLINK_PROTOCOL`, to force PuTTY's `plink.exe` to use the SSH protocol instead of Telnet, - `PATH`, to make sure that the `bin` folder in the user's home directory, as well as the `/mingw64/bin` and the `/usr/bin` directories are included. The trick here is that the `/mingw64/bin/` and `/usr/bin/` directories are relative to the top-level installation directory of Git for Windows (which the included Bash interprets as `/`, i.e. as the MSYS pseudo root directory). Using the absence of `MSYSTEM` as a tell-tale, we can detect in `git.exe` whether these environment variables have been initialized properly. Therefore we can call `C:\Program Files\Git\mingw64\bin\git` in-place after this change, without having to call Git through the Git wrapper. Obviously, above-mentioned directories must be _prepended_ to the `PATH` variable, otherwise we risk picking up executables from unrelated Git installations. We do that by constructing the new `PATH` value from scratch, appending `$HOME/bin` (if `HOME` is set), then the MSYS2 system directories, and then appending the original `PATH`. Side note: this modification of the `PATH` variable is independent of the modification necessary to reach the executables and scripts in `/mingw64/libexec/git-core/`, i.e. the `GIT_EXEC_PATH`. That modification is still performed by Git, elsewhere, long after making the changes described above. While we _still_ cannot simply hard-link `mingw64\bin\git.exe` to `cmd` (because the former depends on a couple of `.dll` files that are only in `mingw64\bin`, i.e. calling `...\cmd\git.exe` would fail to load due to missing dependencies), at least we can now avoid that extra process of running the Git wrapper (which then has to wait for the spawned `git.exe` to finish) by calling `...\mingw64\bin\git.exe` directly, via its absolute path. Testing this is in Git's test suite tricky: we set up a "new" MSYS pseudo-root and copy the `git.exe` file into the appropriate location, then verify that `MSYSTEM` is set properly, and also that the `PATH` is modified so that scripts can be found in `$HOME/bin`, `/mingw64/bin/` and `/usr/bin/`.

Some platforms (e.g. Windows) provide API functions to resolve paths much quicker. Let's offer a way to short-cut `strbuf_realpath()` on those platforms. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <[email protected]>
…ctory Internally, Git expects the environment variable `HOME` to be set, and to point to the current user's home directory. This environment variable is not set by default on Windows, and therefore Git tries its best to construct one if it finds `HOME` unset. There are actually two different approaches Git tries: first, it looks at `HOMEDRIVE`/`HOMEPATH` because this is widely used in corporate environments with roaming profiles, and a user generally wants their global Git settings to be in a roaming profile. Only when `HOMEDRIVE`/`HOMEPATH` is either unset or does not point to a valid location, Git will fall back to using `USERPROFILE` instead. However, starting with Windows Vista, for secondary logons and services, the environment variables `HOMEDRIVE`/`HOMEPATH` point to Windows' system directory (usually `C:\Windows\system32`). That is undesirable, and that location is usually write-protected anyway. So let's verify that the `HOMEDRIVE`/`HOMEPATH` combo does not point to Windows' system directory before using it, falling back to `USERPROFILE` if it does.

The idea is to allow running the test suite on MinGit with BusyBox installed in /mingw64/bin/sh.exe. In that case, we will want to exclude sort & find (and other Unix utilities) from being bundled. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <[email protected]>
BusyBox-w32 is a true Win32 application, i.e. it does not come with a POSIX emulation layer. That also means that it does *not* use the Unix convention of separating the entries in the PATH variable using colons, but semicolons. However, there are also BusyBox ports to Windows which use a POSIX emulation layer such as Cygwin's or MSYS2's runtime, i.e. using colons as PATH separators. As a tell-tale, let's use the presence of semicolons in the PATH variable: on Unix, it is highly unlikely that it contains semicolons, and on Windows (without POSIX emulation), it is virtually guaranteed, as everybody should have both $SYSTEMROOT and $SYSTEMROOT/system32 in their PATH.

Traditionally, Git for Windows' SDK uses Bash as its default shell. However, other Unix shells are available, too. Most notably, the Win32 port of BusyBox comes with `ash` whose `pwd` command already prints Windows paths as Git for Windows wants them, while there is not even a `builtin` command. Therefore, let's be careful not to override `pwd` unless we know that the `builtin` command is available. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <[email protected]>
The -W option is only understood by MSYS2 Bash's pwd command. We already make sure to override `pwd` by `builtin pwd -W` for MINGW, so let's not double the effort here. This will also help when switching the shell to another one (such as BusyBox' ash) whose pwd does *not* understand the -W option. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <[email protected]>

Since c6b0831 (docs: warn about possible '=' in clean/smudge filter process values, 2016-12-03), t0021 writes out a file with quotes in its name, and MSYS2's path conversion heuristics mistakes that to mean that we are not talking about a path here. Therefore, we need to use Windows paths, as the test-helper is a Win32 program that would otherwise have no idea where to look for the file. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <[email protected]>
At some stage, t5003-archive-zip wants to add a file that is not ASCII. To that end, it uses /bin/sh. But that file may actually not exist (it is too easy to forget that not all the world is Unix/Linux...)! Besides, we already have perfectly fine binary files intended for use solely by the tests. So let's use one of them instead. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <[email protected]>
While it may seem super convenient to some old Unix hands to simpy require Perl to be available when running the test suite, this is a major hassle on Windows, where we want to verify that Perl is not, actually, required in a NO_PERL build. As a super ugly workaround, we "install" a script into /usr/bin/perl reading like this: #!/bin/sh # We'd much rather avoid requiring Perl altogether when testing # an installed Git. Oh well, that's why we cannot have nice # things. exec c:/git-sdk-64/usr/bin/perl.exe "$@" The problem with that is that BusyBox assumes that the #! line in a script refers to an executable, not to a script. So when it encounters the line #!/usr/bin/perl in t5532's proxy-get-cmd, it barfs. Let's help this situation by simply executing the Perl script with the "interpreter" specified explicitly. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <[email protected]>
When t5605 tries to verify that files are hardlinked (or that they are not), it uses the `-links` option of the `find` utility. BusyBox' implementation does not support that option, and BusyBox-w32's lstat() does not even report the number of hard links correctly (for performance reasons). So let's just switch to a different method that actually works on Windows. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <[email protected]>
Git for Windows uses MSYS2's Bash to run the test suite, which comes with benefits but also at a heavy price: on the plus side, MSYS2's POSIX emulation layer allows us to continue pretending that we are on a Unix system, e.g. use Unix paths instead of Windows ones, yet this is bought at a rather noticeable performance penalty. There *are* some more native ports of Unix shells out there, though, most notably BusyBox-w32's ash. These native ports do not use any POSIX emulation layer (or at most a *very* thin one, choosing to avoid features such as fork() that are expensive to emulate on Windows), and they use native Windows paths (usually with forward slashes instead of backslashes, which is perfectly legal in almost all use cases). And here comes the problem: with a $PWD looking like, say, C:/git-sdk-64/usr/src/git/t/trash directory.t5813-proto-disable-ssh Git's test scripts get quite a bit confused, as their assumptions have been shattered. Not only does this path contain a colon (oh no!), it also does not start with a slash. This is a problem e.g. when constructing a URL as t5813 does it: ssh://remote$PWD. Not only is it impossible to separate the "host" from the path with a $PWD as above, even prefixing $PWD by a slash won't work, as /C:/git-sdk-64/... is not a valid path. As a workaround, detect when $PWD does not start with a slash on Windows, and simply strip the drive prefix, using an obscure feature of Windows paths: if an absolute Windows path starts with a slash, it is implicitly prefixed by the drive prefix of the current directory. As we are talking about the current directory here, anyway, that strategy works. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <[email protected]>
On Windows, the current working directory is pretty much guaranteed to contain a colon. If we feed that path to CVS, it mistakes it for a separator between host and port, though. This has not been a problem so far because Git for Windows uses MSYS2's Bash using a POSIX emulation layer that also pretends that the current directory is a Unix path (at least as long as we're in a shell script). However, that is rather limiting, as Git for Windows also explores other ports of other Unix shells. One of those is BusyBox-w32's ash, which is a native port (i.e. *not* using any POSIX emulation layer, and certainly not emulating Unix paths). So let's just detect if there is a colon in $PWD and punt in that case. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <[email protected]>
The Makefile target `install-mingit-test-artifacts` simply copies stuff and things directly into a MinGit directory, including an init.bat script to set everything up so that the tests can be run in a cmd window.
