[PATCH v2 00/23] Change semantics of "fetch --tags"

[PATCH v2 00/23] Change semantics of "fetch --tags"

[Michael Haggerty]

This is v2 of my proposed fix for the "local tag killer" problem that
I reported recently [1].  Thanks a lot to Junio for his feedback on
v1.

Changes since v1:

* Rebase to current upstream master (0d6cf2471f); no conflicts were
  encountered.

* Incorporate feedback from Junio:

  * Improve the documentation as suggested

  * Fix a few typos

* Document get_expanded_map() and fix a minor memory leak that I found
  there.

* get_ref_map(): Do not look for references that can be updated
  opportunistically among the entries added by "--tags".  Preserve the
  order of output list when changing the function to handle the new
  "--tags" semantics.  (I know more about how the output is used and
  am less worried now that the changes will have bad interactions with
  the rest of the system.)

* Improve the description of tag-following in the "git fetch" manpage.

* Moved the changes to ref_remove_duplicates() later in the series, as
  they were not really integral to the rest of the patch series.
  Make the following changes to that function:

  * Add tests of how it handles duplicates.

  * Simplify the loop in a different way than v1, to make it more
    modular.

  * Extract a function to handle duplicates.

  * Improve the error messages emitted if ref_remove_duplicates()
    finds conflicting duplicates, and mark the messages for
    translation.

  * Do not die() if a user-specified refspec conflicts with
    an opportunistic update.

[PATCH v2 01/23] t5510: use the correct tag name in test

[Michael Haggerty]

Fix an apparent copy-paste error: A few lines earlier, a tag
"refs/tags/sometag" is created.  Check for the (non-)existence of that
tag, not "somebranch", which is otherwise never mentioned in the
script.

[PATCH v2 02/23] t5510: prepare test refs more straightforwardly

[Michael Haggerty]

"git fetch" was being used with contrived refspecs to create tags and
remote-tracking branches in test repositories in preparation for the
actual tests.  This is obscure and also makes one wonder whether this
is indeed just preparation or whether some side-effect of "git fetch"
is being tested.

So use the more straightforward commands "git tag" / "git update-ref"
when preparing branches in test repositories.

[PATCH v2 03/23] t5510: check that "git fetch --prune --tags" does not prune branches

[Michael Haggerty]

"git fetch --prune --tags" is currently interpreted as follows:

* "--tags" is equivalent to specifying a refspec
  "refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*", and supersedes any default refspecs
  configured via remote.$REMOTE.fetch.

* "--prune" only operates on the refspecs being fetched.

Therefore, "git fetch --prune --tags" prunes tags in refs/tags/* but
does not fetch or prune other references.  The fact that this command
does not prune references outside of refs/tags/* was previously
untested.  So add a test that verifies the status quo.

However, the status quo is surprising, so it will be changed later in
this patch series.

[Michael Haggerty]

Rename "refs" -> "refspecs" and "ref_count" -> "refspec_count" to
reduce confusion, because they describe an array of "struct refspec",
as opposed to the "struct ref" objects that are also used in this
function.

[PATCH v2 09/23] fetch: only opportunistically update references based on command line

[Michael Haggerty]

The old code processed (tags == TAGS_SET) before adding the entries
used to opportunistically update references mentioned on the command
line.  The result was that all tags were also considered candidates
for opportunistic updating.

This is harmless for two reasons: (a) because it would only add
entries if there is a configured refspec that covers tags *and* both
--tags and another refspec appear on the command-line; (b) because any
extra entries would be deleted later by the call to
ref_remove_duplicates() anyway.

But, to avoid extra work and extra memory usage, and to make the
implementation better match the intention, change the algorithm
slightly: compute the opportunistic refspecs based only on the
command-line arguments, storing the results into a separate temporary
list.  Then add the tags (which have to come earlier in the list so
that they are not de-duped in favor of an opportunistic entry).  Then
concatenate the temporary list onto the main list.

This change will also make later changes easier.

[PATCH v2 10/23] fetch --tags: fetch tags *in addition to* other stuff

[Michael Haggerty]

Previously, fetch's "--tags" option was considered equivalent to
specifying the refspec "refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*" on the command line;
in particular, it caused the remote.<name>.refspec configuration to be
ignored.

But it is not very useful to fetch tags without also fetching other
references, whereas it *is* quite useful to be able to fetch tags *in
addition to* other references.  So change the semantics of this option
to do the latter.

If a user wants to fetch *only* tags, then it is still possible to
specifying an explicit refspec:

    git fetch <remote> 'refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*'

Please note that the documentation prior to 1.8.0.3 was ambiguous
about this aspect of "fetch --tags" behavior.  Commit

    f0cb2f137c 2012-12-14 fetch --tags: clarify documentation

made the documentation match the old behavior.  This commit changes
the documentation to match the new behavior.

[PATCH v2 11/23] fetch --prune: prune only based on explicit refspecs

[Michael Haggerty]

The old behavior of "fetch --prune" was to prune whatever was being
fetched.  In particular, "fetch --prune --tags" caused tags not only
to be fetched, but also to be pruned.  This is inappropriate because
there is only one tags namespace that is shared among the local
repository and all remotes.  Therefore, if the user defines a local
tag and then runs "git fetch --prune --tags", then the local tag is
deleted.  Moreover, "--prune" and "--tags" can also be configured via
fetch.prune / remote.<name>.prune and remote.<name>.tagopt, making it
even less obvious that an invocation of "git fetch" could result in
tag lossage.

Since the command "git remote update" invokes "git fetch", it had the
same problem.

The command "git remote prune", on the other hand, disregarded the
setting of remote.<name>.tagopt, and so its behavior was inconsistent
with that of the other commands.

So the old behavior made it too easy to lose tags.  To fix this
problem, change "fetch --prune" to prune references based only on
refspecs specified explicitly by the user, either on the command line
or via remote.<name>.fetch.  Thus, tags are no longer made subject to
pruning by the --tags option or the remote.<name>.tagopt setting.

However, tags *are* still subject to pruning if they are fetched as
part of a refspec, and that is good.  For example:

* On the command line,

      git fetch --prune 'refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*'

  causes tags, and only tags, to be fetched and pruned, and is
  therefore a simple way for the user to get the equivalent of the old
  behavior of "--prune --tag".

* For a remote that was configured with the "--mirror" option, the
  configuration is set to include

      [remote "name"]
              fetch = +refs/*:refs/*

  , which causes tags to be subject to pruning along with all other
  references.  This is the behavior that will typically be desired for
  a mirror.

[PATCH v2 15/23] fetch, remote: properly convey --no-prune options to subprocesses

[Michael Haggerty]

If --no-prune is passed to one of the following commands:

    git fetch --all
    git fetch --multiple
    git fetch --recurse-submodules
    git remote update

then it must also be passed to the "fetch" subprocesses that those
commands use to do their work.  Otherwise there might be a fetch.prune
or remote.<name>.prune configuration setting that causes pruning to
occur, contrary to the user's express wish.

[PATCH v2 17/23] git-fetch.txt: improve description of tag auto-following

[Michael Haggerty]

Make it clearer that tags are fetched independent of which branches
were fetched from the remote in any particular fetch.  (Tags are even
fetched if they point at objects that are in the current repository
but not reachable, which is probably a bug.)

Put less emphasis on the mechanism and more on the effect of tag
auto-following.  Also mention the options and configuration settings
that can change the tag-fetching behavior.

[PATCH v2 18/23] ref_remove_duplicates(): avoid redundant bisection

[Michael Haggerty]

The old code called string_list_lookup(), and if that failed called
string_list_insert(), thus doing the bisection search through the
string list twice in the latter code path.

Instead, just call string_list_insert() right away.  If an entry for
that peer reference name already existed, then its util pointer is
always non-NULL.

Of course this doesn't change the fact that the repeated
string_list_insert() calls make the function scale like O(N^2) if the
input reference list is not already approximately sorted.

[PATCH v2 19/23] t5536: new test of refspec conflicts when fetching

[Michael Haggerty]

Add some tests that "git fetch" handles refspec conflicts (i.e., when
the same local reference should be updated from two different remote
references) correctly.

There is a small bug when updating references opportunistically,
namely that an explicit user wish like

    git fetch origin \
        refs/heads/branch1:refs/remotes/origin/branch2 \
        refs/heads/branch2:refs/remotes/origin/branch1

should override a configured refspec like

    +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*

The current code incorrectly treats this as a fatal error.

In a few commits we will improve the error messages for refspec
conflicts in general and also turn this buggy fatal error into a
warning.

[PATCH v2 23/23] fetch: improve the error messages emitted for conflicting refspecs

[Michael Haggerty]

If we find two refspecs that want to update the same local reference,
emit an error message that is more informative based on whether one of
the conflicting refspecs is an opportunistic update during a fetch
with explicit command-line refspecs.  And especially, do not die if an
opportunistic reference update conflicts with an express wish of the
user; rather, just emit a warning and skip the opportunistic reference
update.

As the test titles indicate, we are exercising the 'fetch --prune'
functionality. However, I don't see the 'git fetch <remote>
<src>:<dst>' form exercised anywhere else in the file.

Why? Is it used in some later patch?

It's just improving the code hygiene in a function that I was reading to
understand the other code affected by the patches.  It's unrelated to
the other patches.

I see a couple of examples:

$ grep 'git fetch.*:' t/t5510*.sh
	git fetch --prune origin refs/heads/a/*:refs/remotes/origin/a/* &&
	git fetch --prune --tags origin
refs/heads/foo/*:refs/remotes/origin/foo/* &&
	git fetch .. :track &&
	test_must_fail git fetch .. anno:five
	git fetch .. six:six
	test_must_fail git fetch "$D/bundle1" master:master
	git fetch ../bundle2 master:master &&
	 git fetch "rsync:$(pwd)/../.git" master:refs/heads/master &&
	test_must_fail git fetch . side:master
	git fetch --update-head-ok . side:master

The tests in question didn't really check the results of the fetch
anyway.  I don't think they were intended to test fetch but only to set
up the initial conditions for the real test.
