Two changes from the prior set attempted for 'next':

- https://lore.kernel.org/git/xmqqh7xk45l4.fsf@gitster.c.googlers.com
  squashed into "help: move list_config_help to builtin/help"
- Danh's SOB line changed to use the correct identity in "bugreport: add
  compiler info"

When generating this series I did base it on
dd/ci-swap-azure-pipelines-with-github-actions in order to get the
vs-build CI target; the results are here:
https://github.com/nasamuffin/git/actions/runs/80163844

Thanks.

Starting in 3ac68a93fd2, help.o began to depend on builtin/branch.o,
builtin/clean.o, and builtin/config.o. This meant that help.o was
unusable outside of the context of the main Git executable.

To make help.o usable by other commands again, move list_config_help()
into builtin/help.c (where it makes sense to assume other builtin libraries
are present).

When command-list.h is included but a member is not used, we start to
hear a compiler warning. Since the config list is generated in a fairly
different way than the command list, and since commands and config
options are semantically different, move the config list into its own
header and move the generator into its own script and build rule.

msvc: the bugreport topic depends on a generated config-list.h file

For reasons explained in 976aaedc (msvc: add a Makefile target to
pre-generate the Visual Studio solution, 2019-07-29), some build
artifacts we consider non-source files cannot be generated in the
Visual Studio environment, and we already have some Makefile tweaks
to help Visual Studio to use generated command-list.h header file.

As this topic starts to depend on another such generated header file,
config-list.h, let's do the same to it.

Teach Git how to prompt the user for a good bug report: reproduction
steps, expected behavior, and actual behavior. Later, Git can learn how
to collect some diagnostic information from the repository.

If users can send us a well-written bug report which contains diagnostic
information we would otherwise need to ask the user for, we can reduce
the number of question-and-answer round trips between the reporter and
the Git contributor.

Users may also wish to send a report like this to their local "Git
expert" if they have put their repository into a state they are confused
by.

+git-bugreport(1)
+================
+
+NAME
+----
+git-bugreport - Collect information for user to file a bug report
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+[verse]
+'git bugreport' [(-o | --output-directory) <path>] [(-s | --suffix) <format>]
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+Captures information about the user's machine, Git client, and repository state,
+as well as a form requesting information about the behavior the user observed,
+into a single text file which the user can then share, for example to the Git
+mailing list, in order to report an observed bug.
+
+The following information is requested from the user:
+
+ - Reproduction steps
+ - Expected behavior
+ - Actual behavior
+
+This tool is invoked via the typical Git setup process, which means that in some
+cases, it might not be able to launch - for example, if a relevant config file
+is unreadable. In this kind of scenario, it may be helpful to manually gather
+the kind of information listed above when manually asking for help.
+
+OPTIONS
+-------
+-o <path>::
+--output-directory <path>::
+	Place the resulting bug report file in `<path>` instead of the root of
+	the Git repository.
+
+-s <format>::
+--suffix <format>::
+	Specify an alternate suffix for the bugreport name, to create a file
+	named 'git-bugreport-<formatted suffix>'. This should take the form of a
+	link:strftime[3] format string; the current local time will be used.
+

Knowing which version of Git a user has and how it was built allows us
to more precisely pin down the circumstances when a certain issue
occurs, so teach bugreport how to tell us the same output as 'git
version --build-options'.

It's not ideal to directly call 'git version --build-options' because
that output goes to stdout. Instead, wrap the version string in a helper
within help.[ch] library, and call that helper from within the bugreport
library.

The contents of uname() can give us some insight into what sort of
system the user is running on, and help us replicate their setup if need
be. The domainname field is not guaranteed to be available, so don't
collect it.

To help pinpoint the source of a regression, it is useful to know some
info about the compiler which the user's Git client was built with. By
adding a generic get_compiler_info() in 'compat/' we can choose which
relevant information to share per compiler; to get started, let's
demonstrate the version of glibc if the user built with 'gcc'.

Forgot to proofread and edit the log message into reasonable shape
when you squashed two patches together?

I wonder if the "squash" action of "rebase -i" can be taught to
detect a mistake like this?

Without waiting for an improvement to "rebase -i" ;-), here is what
I came up with, with a minimum edit.

Subject: help: move list_config_help to builtin/help

Starting in 3ac68a93fd2, help.o began to depend on builtin/branch.o,
builtin/clean.o, and builtin/config.o. This meant that help.o was
unusable outside of the context of the main Git executable.

To make help.o usable by other commands again, move list_config_help()
into builtin/help.c (where it makes sense to assume other builtin libraries
are present).

When command-list.h is included but a member is not used, we start to
hear a compiler warning. Since the config list is generated in a fairly
different way than the command list, and since commands and config
options are semantically different, move the config list into its own
header and move the generator into its own script and build rule.

For reasons explained in 976aaedc (msvc: add a Makefile target to
pre-generate the Visual Studio solution, 2019-07-29), some build
artifacts we consider non-source files cannot be generated in the
Visual Studio environment, and we already have some Makefile tweaks
to help Visual Studio to use generated command-list.h header file.
Do the same to a new generated file, config-list.h, introduced by
this change.

Sorry, I'm an idiot, please ignore my reply.

Less "forgot" and more "wanted to preserve origin", but I'll avoid it

Sorry to make more work for you. Thanks, it looks fine.

I'm afraid that this helper function doesn't do what it was supposed
to.

It iterates through each line of stdin, which is a file written by
'git bugreport'.

> +		if test "$(grep "$HEADER_PATTERN" "$line")"

This first tries to find a match in the _file_ called "$line", which never
exists, resulting in trace output:

  + check_all_headers_populated
  + read -r line
  + grep ^\[.*\]$ Thank you for filling out a Git bug report!
  grep: Thank you for filling out a Git bug report!: No such file or directory
  + test 
  + read -r line
  + grep ^\[.*\]$ Please answer the following questions to help us understand your issue.
  grep: Please answer the following questions to help us understand your issue.: No such file or directory
  + test
  + read -r line
  + grep ^\[.*\]$
  grep: : No such file or directory
  [...]

Then, since 'grep' doesn't print any matches to its stdout, it invokes

  test ""

which always returns non-zero, so that if condition is never fulfilled.

On first sight I thought that simply changing that 'grep' invocation
to something like:

  $(printf "%s\n" "$line" | grep "$HEADER_PATTERN")

would be sufficient to fix it, but then the first test failed... and
I'm not sure that I understand what this was supposed to check in the
first place.

We auto-generate the list of supported configuration variables from
'Documentation/config/*.txt', and that list used to be created by the
'generate-cmdlist.sh' helper script and stored in the 'command-list.h'
header.  Commit 709df95b78 (help: move list_config_help to
builtin/help, 2020-04-16) extracted this into a dedicated
'generate-configlist.sh' script and 'config-list.h' header, and added
a new target in the 'Makefile' as well, but while doing so it forgot
to extract the dependencies of the latter.  Consequently, since then
'config-list.h' is not re-generated when 'Documentation/config/*.txt'
is updated, while 'command-list.h' is re-generated unnecessarily:

  $ touch Documentation/config/log.txt
  $ make -j4
      GEN command-list.h
      CC help.o
      AR libgit.a

Fix this and list all config-related documentation files as
dependencies of 'config-list.h' and remove them from the dependencies
of 'command-list.h'.

  $ touch Documentation/config/log.txt
  $ make
      GEN config-list.h
      CC builtin/help.o
      LINK git

This change makes sense.

I have a not-yet-submitted patch series where I added some more
config/*/*.txt that wouldn't be caught by this rule, I'd updated the
Documentation/Makefile, but missed this part in the top-level Makefile.

So a relation question: Does anyone actually prefer this state of
affairs of having a Makefile, Documentation/Makefile, t/Makefile
t/perf/Makefile and template/Makefile?

It seems to me with ever-closer coupling between them that it's getting
to be more of a hassle to manage state between them than it would be to
just move them all into one big Makefile.

Even with _GNU_SOURCE would anyone care about the domainname (the NIS/YP
name, not DNS) these days, as opposed to the portable POSIX "nodename"
field you're not including?

In any case, I'd think it's a good idea to omit both. People tend not to
want to want to include their FQDN (e.g. their employer), and I can't
think of a reason we'd care about it for debugging git.

Since this is completely free-form I'd think:

    "sysname: %s\nrelease: %s\nversion: %s\nmachine: %s\nnodename: %s\ndomainname: %s\n",

Or something like that would be better (after pruning out the fields we
don't care about).

These are marked with _() but not the "clang" etc. below. I'd think that
for a git-bugreport tool we'd be better off without any i18n.

Why the ifdef/elif/ifdef instead of ifdef/elif/elif? Isn't _MSC_VER
mutually exclusive with __clang__ and __GNUC__?

All true.

By the way, what's this sudden interest in re-reviewing an age old
topic?

The thread got bumped by SZEDER in [1] and I'd read an April date
without noticing the year, so I see this has long-since landed,
nevermind :)

No, clang-cl is a MSVC emulation from clang, and clang-cl defines both
__clang__ and _MSC_VER. See: [mail].

AFAICT, clang-cl is production-usable, Google uses clang-cl to build
Google Chrome for Windows fro 2018 [blog]

I agree it looks like it's moving in the right direction, but I am
slightly puzzled by the existing code. Why do we need to use $(wildcard)
for git*.txt, but not for the others?

Yes, I'm generally a fan of avoiding recursive make when we can. I think
the caveats are:

  - it would be nice to continue to have stub Makefiles in
    sub-directories that trigger the main one (so "cd t && make"
    continues to work, for example).

  - we may need some cleanup of parts of the top-level Makefile which
    are triggered without dependencies (e.g., I think we unconditionally
    run some scripts to compute GIT_VERSION in the top-level; this is
    already a bit wasteful, but may get even more so as we add more
    rules from sub-directories).

Mostly my argument against it (and why I haven't purused it) would be:
it sounds like a lot of work and risk of regression, and the current
system seems pretty fine in practice.

Even if it has been in the releases, the room for improvement is
still there, no?

We don't need $(wildcard) for git*.txt either, because 'make' expands
wildcards in prerequisites, see e.g.:

  https://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/html_node/Wildcard-Examples.html


On a related note: all config variables are now listed in
Documentation/config/*.txt; Documentation/*config.txt doesn't contain
any, so that could be removed.

In the first test in this script, 'creates a report with content in the
right places', we generate a report and pipe it into our helper
`check_all_headers_populated()`. The idea of the helper is to find all
lines that look like headers ("[Some Header Here]") and to check that
the next line is non-empty. This is supposed to catch erroneous outputs
such as the following:

  [A Header]
  something
  more here

  [Another Header]

  [Too Early Header]
  contents

However, we provide the lines of the bug report as filenames to grep,
meaning we mostly end up spewing errors:

  grep: : No such file or directory
  grep: [System Info]: No such file or directory
  grep: git version:: No such file or directory
  grep: git version 2.31.1.164.g984c2561cd: No such file

This doesn't disturb the test, which tugs along and reports success, not
really having verified the contents of the report at all.

Note that after 788a776069 ("bugreport: collect list of populated
hooks", 2020-05-07), the bug report, which is created in our hook-less
test repo, contains an empty section with the enabled hooks. Thus, even
the intention of our helper is a bit misguided: there is nothing
inherently wrong with having an empty section in the bug report.

Let's instead grep for some contents that we expect to find in a bug
report. We won't verify that they appear in the right order, but at
least we end up verifying the contents more than before this commit.

Nicely described.  I agree that the original intent (let alone the
implementation) is misguided and we should allow an empty section as
a perfectly normal thing.

It is a different matter if it is sufficient to ensure only certain
selected lines appear in the report, though.  As all the lines lost
by this fix comes from 238b439d (bugreport: add tool to generate
debugging info, 2020-04-16), it would be nice to hear from Emily.

Maybe something like

       awk '\''BEGIN { sect="" }
               /^\[.*]$/ { sect=$0 }
               /./ { print sect, $0 }'\'' \
           git-bugreport-check-headers.txt >prefixed &&
       grep "^ Thank you for filling out a Git bug report" prefixed &&
       grep "^ Please review the rest of the bug report below" prefixed &&
       grep "^ You can delete any lines you don.t wish to share" prefixed &&
       grep "\[System Info\] git version ..." prefixed

Something like that could be used to verify that a line goes into the
right section, as opposed to just seeing that it appears *somewhere*. Or
maybe

  grep -e Thank.you -e Please.review -e You.can.delete -e "^\[" \
       -e git.version git-bugreport-check-headers.txt >actual

then setting up an "expect" and comparing. That would help us verify the
order, including which section things appear in. Slightly less friendly
for comparing loosely, compared to the awk-then-grep above.

Let's see what Emily thinks about the various alternatives. Maybe she can
think of something else.

Yeah, we should definitely keep those in place. I also wonder if various
rules for local wildcards will be more complex when they need to reach
into subdirectories.

One edge case I discovered the other day but didn't bother debugging
much was make at the top-level failing because "doc.dep" in
Documentation/Makefile uses this pattern:

    rm x &&
    script >x

Which would normally work in one Makefile, but in this case two rules in
the top-level called unrelated "make -C Documentation [...]", so both of
those sub-processes end up needing to generate the doc.dep, and they
race each other.

Another thing fixed (or, worked around) with a wider application of [1].

I think a straight-up test_cmp is preferrable, both for correctness and
also as self-documentation, you can see from the test what the full
expected output is like.

Obviously in this case we can't do a test_cmp on the raw output, as it
contains various things from uname.

But it looks like we could do that if we do some light awk/perl/sed
munging of the "[System Info]" and "[Enabled Hooks]" section(s).

Or, since we also control the generator we could pass a --no-system-info
and/or --no-hooks-info, which may be something some people want for
privacy/reporting reasons anyway (e.g. I've often used perlbug and
deleted that whole info, because info there has no relevance to the
specific issue I'm reporting).

This "Please answer" is translated and you look for it with plain
'grep' instead of 'test_i18ngrep', which is fine nowadays...  However,
Junio queued this patch on top of v2.29.3, which is old enough to
still have the GETTEXT_POISON CI job, and fails because of this.

I have to wonder, however, whether this is worth testing at all.

This approach sounds more appealing to me than awk munging. I think
you're right that folks may not want to share it in some cases.

Thanks for noticing.

Is it OK for me to keep expecting an update to the patch happen soon?

No, I think this is a good bugfix patch that stands on its own, and
further cleanups could be done independently on top and should not
block this patch from being merged to master.

I'm inclined to think that this should be merged and then
'so/log-diff-merge' should be queued on top because of the subtle
interaction between this bug, the new config variable and the
completion tests.

* [PATCH v2] t0091-bugreport.sh: actually verify some content of report

In the first test in this script, 'creates a report with content in the
right places', we generate a report and pipe it into our helper
`check_all_headers_populated()`. The idea of the helper is to find all
lines that look like headers ("[Some Header Here]") and to check that
the next line is non-empty. This is supposed to catch erroneous outputs
such as the following:

  [A Header]
  something
  more here

  [Another Header]

  [Too Early Header]
  contents

However, we provide the lines of the bug report as filenames to grep,
meaning we mostly end up spewing errors:

  grep: : No such file or directory
  grep: [System Info]: No such file or directory
  grep: git version:: No such file or directory
  grep: git version 2.41.0.2.gfb7d80edca: No such file or directory

This doesn't disturb the test, which tugs along and reports success, not
really having verified the contents of the report at all.

Note that after 788a776069 ("bugreport: collect list of populated
hooks", 2020-05-07), the bug report, which is created in our hook-less
test repo, contains an empty section with the enabled hooks. Thus, even
the intention of our helper is a bit misguided: there is nothing
inherently wrong with having an empty section in the bug report.

Let's instead split this test into three: first verify that we generate
a report at all, then check that the introductory blurb looks the way it
should, then verify that the "[System Info]" seems to contain the right
things. (The "[Enabled Hooks]" section is tested later in the script.)

 This is a much belated follow-up to v1 [1]. Feedback on that patch
 ranged from not bothering checking the generated report at all to
 implementing `--no-system-info` and `--no-hooks-info` so that we could
 easily test the introductory blurb verbatim.

 I hope I'm hitting a reasonable middle ground here. Verifying the
 contents at least somewhat is in line with the original intention of
 the test. Those `--no-...-info` could probably be useful to bug
 reporters, but it feels wrong to me to implement them just to be able
 to use them in the tests.

That sounds like a good plan

Personally I'd find

	sed -n -e '/^\[/q;p' git-bugreport-format.txt >actual

easier to understand but that's probably because I don't use awk very 
much. I'm not sure it is worth a re-roll though as I see we do use awk 
in a few of the other test scripts.

Best Wishes

Phillip

I do see we use sed quite a bit more than awk in the tests. This script
doesn't yet use awk and if most feel like you we're probably better off
introducing another sed use rather than another awk use.

I'll be happy to post a v3 with only this change. (This script uses "sed
-ne" already and I even do so elsewhere in my patch, so I'll be applying
s/-n -e/-ne/ to your suggestion.)

Thanks for reviewing!
