ed62089c1c revision traversal and pack: notice and die on missing commit
cc0e6c5 (Handle return code of parse_commit in revision machinery,
2007-05-04) attempted to tighten error checking in the revision machinery,
but it wasn't enough.  When get_revision_1() was asked for the next commit
to return, it tries to read and simplify the parents of the commit to be
returned, but an error while doing so was silently ignored and reported as
a truncated history to the caller instead.

This resulted in an early end of "git log" output or a pack that lacks
older commits from "git pack-objects", without any error indication in the
exit status from these commands, even though the underlying parse_commit()
issues an error message to the end user.

Note that the codepath in add_parents_list() that paints parents of an
UNINTERESTING commit UNINTERESTING silently ignores the error when
parse_commit() fails; this is deliberate and in line with aeeae1b
(revision traversal: allow UNINTERESTING objects to be missing,
2009-01-27).

aeeae1b771 revision traversal: allow UNINTERESTING objects to be missing
Most of the existing codepaths were meant to treat missing uninteresting
objects to be a silently ignored non-error, but there were a few places
in handle_commit() and add_parents_to_list(), which are two key functions
in the revision traversal machinery, that cared:

 - When a tag refers to an object that we do not have, we barfed.  We
   ignore such a tag if it is painted as UNINTERESTING with this change.

 - When digging deeper into the ancestry chain of a commit that is already
   painted as UNINTERESTING, in order to paint its parents UNINTERESTING,
   we barfed if parse_parent() for a parent commit object failed.  We can
   ignore such a parent commit object.

f0298cf1c6 revision walker: include a detached HEAD in --all
When HEAD is detached, --all should list it, too, logically, as a
detached HEAD is by definition a temporary, unnamed branch.

It is especially necessary to list it when garbage collecting, as
the detached HEAD would be trashed.

Noticed by Thomas Rast.

Note that this affects creating bundles with --all; I contend that it
is a good change to add the HEAD, so that cloning from such a bundle
will give you a current branch.  However, I had to fix t5701 as it
assumed that --all does not imply HEAD.

78892e3261 revision traversal: '--simplify-by-decoration'
With this, you can simplify history not by the contents of the tree, but
whether a commit has been named (ie it's referred to by some branch or
tag) or not.

This makes it possible to see the relationship between different named
commits, without actually seeing any of the details.

When used with pathspec, you would get the usual view that is limited to
the commits that change the contents of the tree plus commits that are
named.

0f3a290b89 Add a 'source' decorator for commits
We already support decorating commits by tags or branches that point to
them, but especially when we are looking at multiple branches together,
we sometimes want to see _how_ we reached a particular commit.

We can abuse the '->util' field in the commit to keep track of that as
we walk the commit lists, and get a reasonably useful view into which
branch or tag first reaches that commit.

Of course, if the commit is reachable through multiple sources (which is
common), our particular choice of "first" reachable is entirely random
and depends on the particular path we happened to follow.

a4d7d2c6db log --author/--committer: really match only with name part
When we tried to find commits done by AUTHOR, the first implementation
tried to pattern match a line with "^author .*AUTHOR", which later was
enhanced to strip leading caret and look for "^author AUTHOR" when the
search pattern was anchored at the left end (i.e. --author="^AUTHOR").

This had a few problems:

 * When looking for fixed strings (e.g. "git log -F --author=x --grep=y"),
   the regexp internally used "^author .*x" would never match anything;

 * To match at the end (e.g. "git log --author='google.com>$'"), the
   generated regexp has to also match the trailing timestamp part the
   commit header lines have.  Also, in order to determine if the '$' at
   the end means "match at the end of the line" or just a literal dollar
   sign (probably backslash-quoted), we would need to parse the regexp
   ourselves.

An earlier alternative tried to make sure that a line matches "^author "
(to limit by field name) and the user supplied pattern at the same time.
While it solved the -F problem by introducing a special override for
matching the "^author ", it did not solve the trailing timestamp nor tail
match problem.  It also would have matched every commit if --author=author
was asked for, not because the author's email part had this string, but
because every commit header line that talks about the author begins with
that field name, regardleses of who wrote it.

Instead of piling more hacks on top of hacks, this rethinks the grep
machinery that is used to look for strings in the commit header, and makes
sure that (1) field name matches literally at the beginning of the line,
followed by a SP, and (2) the user supplied pattern is matched against the
remainder of the line, excluding the trailing timestamp data.

498bcd3159 rev-list: fix --reverse interaction with --parents
--reverse did not interact well with --parents, as the included test
case shows: in a history like

  A--B.
   \   \
    `C--M--D

the command

  git rev-list --reverse --parents --full-history HEAD

erroneously lists D as having no parents at all.  (Without --reverse,
it correctly lists M.)

This is caused by the machinery driving --reverse: it first grabs all
commits through the normal routines, then runs them through the same
routines again, effectively simplifying them twice.

Fix this by moving the --reverse one level up, into get_revision().
This way we can cleanly grab all commits via the normal calls, then
just pop them off the list one by one without interfering with
get_revision_internal().

0843acfd2c Fix "git log -i --grep"
This has been broken in v1.6.0 due to the reorganization of
the revision option parsing code. The "-i" is completely
ignored, but works fine in "git log --grep -i".

What happens is that the code for "-i" looks for
revs->grep_filter; if it is NULL, we do nothing, since there
are no grep filters. But that is obviously not correct,
since we want it to influence the later --grep option. Doing
it the other way around works, since "-i" just impacts the
existing grep_filter option.

Instead, we now always initialize the grep_filter member and
just fill in options and patterns as we get them. This means
that we can no longer check grep_filter for NULL, but
instead must check the pattern list to see if we have any
actual patterns.

6546b5931e 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()).

0fe8c13810 Allow "non-option" revision options in parse_option-enabled commands
Commands which use parse_options() but also call setup_revisions()
must do their parsing in a two step process:

  1. first, they parse all options. Anything unknown goes to
     parse_revision_opt() (which calls handle_revision_opt), which
     may claim the option or say "I don't recognize this"

  2. the non-option remainder goes to setup_revisions() to
     actually get turned into revisions

Some revision options are "non-options" in that they must be
parsed in order with their revision counterparts in
setup_revisions().  For example, "--all" functions as a
pseudo-option expanding to all refs, and "--no-walk" affects refs
after it on the command line, but not before. The revision option
parser in step 1 recognizes such options and sets them aside for
later parsing by setup_revisions().

However, the return value used from handle_revision_opt indicated
"I didn't recognize this", which was wrong. It did, and it took
appropriate action (even though that action was just deferring it
for later parsing). Thus it should return "yes, I recognized
this."

Previously, these pseudo-options generated an error when used with
parse_options parsers (currently just blame and shortlog). With
this patch, they should work fine, enabling things like "git
shortlog --all".

Add two fields to struct rev_info:

 - .show_merge 1-bit field.

handle_revision_opt() is able to deal with any revision option, and
consumes them, and leaves revision arguments or pseudo arguments
(like --all, --not, ...) in place.

For now setup_revisions() does a pass of handle_revision_opt() again
so that code not using it in a parse-opt parser still work the same.

Previously the graphing API wasn't aware of the revs->boundary flag, and
it always assumed that commits marked UNINTERESTING would not be

the log output, but they didn't have any branch lines connecting them to
their children in the graph.

There was also another bug in the get_revision() code that caused
graph_update() to be called twice on the first boundary commit.  This
caused the graph API to think that a commit had been skipped, and print

d9c292e8bb Simplify and fix --first-parent implementation
The purpose of --first-parent is to view the tree without looking at
side branche.  This is accomplished by pretending there are no other
parents than the first parent when encountering a merge.

The current code marks the other parents as seen, which means that the tree
traversal will behave differently depending on the order merges are handled.

When a fast forward is artificially recorded as a merge,

       -----
      /     \
 D---E---F---G master

the current first-parent code considers E to be seen and stops the
traversal after showing G and F.

4da45bef56 log: teach "terminator" vs "separator" mode to "--pretty=format"
This attached patch introduces a single bit "use_terminator" in "struct
rev_info", which is normally false (i.e. most formats use separator
semantics) but by flipping it to true, you can ask for terminator
semantics just like oneline format does.

The function get_commit_format(), which is what parses "--pretty=" option,
now takes a pointer to "struct rev_info" and updates its commit_format and
use_terminator fields.  It used to return the value of type "enum
cmit_fmt", but all the callers assigned it to rev->commit_format.

There are only two cases the code turns use_terminator on.  Obviously, the
traditional oneline format (--pretty=oneline) is one of them, and the new
case is --pretty=tformat:... that acts like --pretty=format:... but flips
the bit on.

With this, "--pretty=tformat:%H %s" acts like --pretty=oneline.

7d004199d1 Make revision limiting more robust against occasional bad commit dates
The revision limiter uses the commit date to decide when it has seen
enough commits to finalize the revision list, but that can get confused
if there are incorrect dates far in the past on some commits.

This makes the logic a bit more robust by

 - we always walk an extra SLOP commits from the source list even if we
   decide that the source list is probably all done (unless the source is
   entirely empty, of course, because then we really can't do anything at
   all)

 - we keep track of the date of the last commit we added to the
   destination list (this will *generally* be the oldest entry we've seen
   so far)

 - we compare that with the youngest entry (the first one) of the source
   list, and if the destination is older than the source, we know we want
   to look at the source.

which causes occasional date mishaps to be handled cleanly.

3131b71301 Add "--show-all" revision walker flag for debugging
It's really not very easy to visualize the commit walker, because - on
purpose - it obvously doesn't show the uninteresting commits!

This adds a "--show-all" flag to the revision walker, which will make
it show uninteresting commits too, and they'll have a '^' in front of
them (it also fixes a logic error for !verbose_header for boundary
commits - we should show the '-' even if left_right isn't shown).

A separate patch to gitk to teach it the new '^' was sent
to paulus.  With the change in place, it actually is interesting
even for the cases that git doesn't have any problems with, ie
for the kernel you can do:

	gitk -d --show-all v2.6.24..

and you see just how far down it has to parse things to see it all. The
use of "-d" is a good idea, since the date-ordered toposort is much better
at showing why it goes deep down (ie the date of some of those commits
after 2.6.24 is much older, because they were merged from trees that
weren't rebased).

So I think this is a useful feature even for non-debugging - just to
visualize what git does internally more.

When it actually breaks out due to the "everybody_uninteresting()"
case, it adds the uninteresting commits (both the one it's looking at
now, and the list of pending ones) to the list

This way, we really list *all* the commits we've looked at.

Because we now end up listing commits we may not even have been parsed
at all "show_log" and "show_commit" need to protect against commits
that don't have a commit buffer entry.

That second part is debatable just how it should work. Maybe we shouldn't
show such entries at all (with this patch those entries do get shown, they
just don't get any message shown with them). But I think this is a useful
case.

cd676a5136 diff --relative: output paths as relative to the current subdirectory
This adds --relative option to the diff family.  When you start
from a subdirectory:

        $ git diff --relative

shows only the diff that is inside your current subdirectory,
and without $prefix part.  People who usually live in
subdirectories may like it.

There are a few things I should also mention about the change:

 - This works not just with diff but also works with the log
   family of commands, but the history pruning is not affected.

   In other words, if you go to a subdirectory, you can say:

        $ git log --relative -p

   but it will show the log message even for commits that do not
   touch the current directory.  You can limit it by giving
   pathspec yourself:

        $ git log --relative -p .

   This originally was not a conscious design choice, but we
   have a way to affect diff pathspec and pruning pathspec
   independently.  IOW "git log --full-diff -p ." tells it to
   prune history to commits that affect the current subdirectory
   but show the changes with full context.  I think it makes
   more sense to leave pruning independent from --relative than
   the obvious alternative of always pruning with the current
   subdirectory, which would break the symmetry.

 - Because this works also with the log family, you could
   format-patch a single change, limiting the effect to your
   subdirectory, like so:

        $ cd gitk-git
        $ git format-patch -1 --relative 911f1eb

   But because that is a special purpose usage, this option will
   never become the default, with or without repository or user
   preference configuration.  The risk of producing a partial
   patch and sending it out by mistake is too great if we did
   so.

 - This is inherently incompatible with --no-index, which is a
   bolted-on hack that does not have much to do with git
   itself.  I didn't bother checking and erroring out on the
   combined use of the options, but probably I should.

7dc0fe3be5 Fix parent rewriting in --early-output
We cannot tell a node that has been checked and found not to be
interesting (which does not have the TREECHANGE flag) from a
node that hasn't been checked if it is interesting or not,
without relying on something else, such as object->parsed.

But an object can get the "parsed" flag for other reasons.
Which means that "TREECHANGE" has the wrong polarity.

This changes the way how the path pruning logic marks an
uninteresting commits.  From now on, we consider a commit
interesting by default, and explicitly mark the ones we decided
to prune.  The flag is renamed to "TREESAME".

Then, this fixes the logic to show the early output with
incomplete pruning.  It basically says "a commit that has
TREESAME set is kind-of-UNINTERESTING", but obviously in a
different way than an outright UNINTERESTING commit.  Until we
parse and examine enough parents to determine if a commit
becomes surely "kind-of-UNINTERESTING", we avoid rewriting
the ancestry so that later rounds can fix things up.

53b2c823f6 revision walker: mini clean-up
This removes the unnecessary indirection of "revs->prune_fn",
since that function is always the same one (or NULL), and there
is in fact not even an abstraction reason to make it a function
(i.e. its not called from some other file and doesn't allow us
to keep the function itself static or anything like that).

It then just replaces it with a bit that says "prune or not",
and if not pruning, every commit gets TREECHANGE.

That in turn means that

 - if (!revs->prune_fn || (flags & TREECHANGE))
 - if (revs->prune_fn && !(flags & TREECHANGE))

just become

 - if (flags & TREECHANGE)
 - if (!(flags & TREECHANGE))

respectively.

Together with adding the "single_parent()" helper function, the "complex"
conditional now becomes

	if (!(flags & TREECHANGE) && rev->dense && single_parent(commit))
		continue;

Also indirection of "revs->dense" checking is thrown away the
same way, because TREECHANGE bit is set appropriately now.

252a7c0235 Enhance --early-output format
This makes --early-output a bit more advanced, and actually makes it
generate multiple "Final output:" headers as it updates things
asynchronously. I realize that the "Final output:" line is now illogical,
since it's not really final until it also says "done", but

It now _always_ generates a "Final output:" header in front of any commit
list, and that output header gives you a *guess* at the maximum number of
commits available. 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 ..

The above is a real-life scenario on my current kernel tree after having
flushed all the caches.

Tested with the experimental gitk patch that Paul sent out, and by looking
at the actual log output (and verifying that my commit count guesses
actually match real life fairly well).

early output will be provided, and only the final list is made

It turns out that I completely broke "git log --follow" with my recent
patch to revision.c ("Fix revision log diff setup, avoid unnecessary diff

Why? Because --follow obviously requires the diff machinery to function,
exactly the same way pickaxe does.

So everybody is away right now, but considering that nobody even noticed
this bug, I don't think it matters. But for the record, here's the trivial
one-liner fix (well, two, since I also fixed the comment).

Because of the nature of the bug, if you ask for patches when following
(which is one of the things I normally do), the bug is hidden, because
then the request for diff output will automatically also enable the diffs
themselves.

So while "git log --follow <filename>" didn't work, adding a "-p"
magically made it work again even without this fix.

b7bb760d5e Fix revision log diff setup, avoid unnecessary diff generation
We used to incorrectly start calculating diffs whenever any argument but
'-z' was recognized by the diff options parsing. That was bogus, since not
all arguments result in diffs being needed, so we just waste a lot of time
and effort on calculating diffs that don't matter.

This actually also fixes another bug in "git log". Try this:

	git log -C

and notice how it prints an extra empty line in between log entries, even
though it never prints the actual diff (because we didn't ask for any diff
format, so the diff machinery never prints anything).

With this patch, that bogus empty line is gone, because "revs->diff" is
never set.  So this isn't just a "wasted time and effort" issue, it's also

d56651c0ef Don't allow combination of -g and --reverse as it doesn't work
The --walk-reflogs logic and the --reverse logic are completely
incompatible with one another.  Attempting to use both at the same
time leads to confusing results that sometimes violates the user's
formatting options or ignores the user's request to see the reflog
message and timestamp.

Unfortunately the implementation of both of these features is glued
onto the side of the revision walking machinary in such a way that
they are probably not going to be easy to make them compatible with
each other.  Rather than offering the user confusing results we are

9fa3465d6b Add --log-size to git log to print message size
With this option git-log prints log message size
just before the corresponding message.

Porcelain tools could use this to speedup parsing
of git-log output.

Note that size refers to log message only. If also
patch content is shown its size is not included.

In case it is not possible to know the size upfront
size value is set to zero.

7b69b873fa git log -g: Complain, but do not fail, when no reflogs are there
When asking "git log -g --all", clearly you want to see only those refs
that do have reflogs, but you do not want it to fail, either.

So instead of die()ing, complain about it, but move on to the other refs.

8e64006eee Teach revision machinery about --no-walk
The flag "no_walk" is present in struct rev_info since a long time, but
so far has been in use exclusively by "git show".

With this flag, you can see all your refs, ordered by date of the last
commit:

$ git log --abbrev-commit --pretty=oneline --decorate --all --no-walk

which is extremely helpful if you have to juggle with a lot topic
branches, and do not remember in which one you introduced that uber
debug option, or simply want to get an overview what is cooking.

(Note that the "git log" invocation above does not output the same as

 $ git show --abbrev-commit --pretty=oneline --decorate --all --quiet

 since "git show" keeps the alphabetic order that "--all" returns the
 refs in, even if the option "--date-order" was passed.)

For good measure, this also adds the "--do-walk" option which overrides
"--no-walk".

If you say --cherry-pick, you do not want to see patches which are
in the upstream.  If you specify paths with that, what you usually
expect is that only those parts of the patches are looked at which
actually touch the given paths.

With this patch, that expectation is met.

750f7b668f Finally implement "git log --follow"
Ok, I've really held off doing this too damn long, because I'm lazy, and I
was always hoping that somebody else would do it.

But no, people keep asking for it, but nobody actually did anything, so I
decided I might as well bite the bullet, and instead of telling people
they could add a "--follow" flag to "git log" to do what they want to do,
I decided that it looks like I just have to do it for them..

The code wasn't actually that complicated, in that the diffstat for this
patch literally says "70 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-)", but I will have
to admit that in order to get to this fairly simple patch, you did have to
know and understand the internal git diff generation machinery pretty
well, and had to really be able to follow how commit generation interacts
with generating patches and generating the log.

So I suspect that while I was right that it wasn't that hard, I might have
been expecting too much of random people - this patch does seem to be
firmly in the core "Linus or Junio" territory.

To make a long story short: I'm sorry for it taking so long until I just
did it.

I'm not going to guarantee that this works for everybody, but you really
can just look at the patch, and after the appropriate appreciative noises
("Ooh, aah") over how clever I am, you can then just notice that the code
itself isn't really that complicated.

All the real new code is in the new "try_to_follow_renames()" function. It
really isn't rocket science: we notice that the pathname we were looking
at went away, so we start a full tree diff and try to see if we can
instead make that pathname be a rename or a copy from some other previous
pathname. And if we can, we just continue, except we show *that*
particular diff, and ever after we use the _previous_ pathname.

One thing to look out for: the "rename detection" is considered to be a
singular event in the _linear_ "git log" output! That's what people want
to do, but I just wanted to point out that this patch is *not* carrying
around a "commit,pathname" kind of pair and it's *not* going to be able to
notice the file coming from multiple *different* files in earlier history.

IOW, if you use "git log --follow", then you get the stupid CVS/SVN kind
of "files have single identities" kind of semantics, and git log will just
pick the identity based on the normal move/copy heuristics _as_if_ the
history could be linearized.

Put another way: I think the model is broken, but given the broken model,
I think this patch does just about as well as you can do. If you have
merges with the same "file" having different filenames over the two
branches, git will just end up picking _one_ of the pathnames at the point
where the newer one goes away. It never looks at multiple pathnames in
parallel.

And if you understood all that, you probably didn't need it explained, and
if you didn't understand the above blathering, it doesn't really mtter to
you. What matters to you is that you can now do

	git log -p --follow builtin-rev-list.c

and it will find the point where the old "rev-list.c" got renamed to
"builtin-rev-list.c" and show it as such.
