Several Git commands have subcommands to implement mutually exclusive
"operation modes", and they usually parse their subcommand argument
with a bunch of if-else if statements.
Teach parse-options to handle subcommands as well, which will result
in shorter and simpler code with consistent error handling and error
messages on unknown or missing subcommand, and it will also make
possible for our Bash completion script to handle subcommands
programmatically.
The approach is guided by the following observations:
- Most subcommands [1] are implemented in dedicated functions, and
most of those functions [2] either have a signature matching the
'int cmd_foo(int argc, const char **argc, const char *prefix)'
signature of builtin commands or can be trivially converted to
that signature, because they miss only that last prefix parameter
or have no parameters at all.
- Subcommand arguments only have long form, and they have no double
dash prefix, no negated form, and no description, and they don't
take any arguments, and can't be abbreviated.
- There must be exactly one subcommand among the arguments, or zero
if the command has a default operation mode.
- All arguments following the subcommand are considered to be
arguments of the subcommand, and, conversely, arguments meant for
the subcommand may not preceed the subcommand.
So in the end subcommand declaration and parsing would look something
like this:
parse_opt_subcommand_fn *fn = NULL;
struct option builtin_commit_graph_options[] = {
OPT_STRING(0, "object-dir", &opts.obj_dir, N_("dir"),
N_("the object directory to store the graph")),
OPT_SUBCOMMAND("verify", &fn, graph_verify),
OPT_SUBCOMMAND("write", &fn, graph_write),
OPT_END(),
};
argc = parse_options(argc, argv, prefix, options,
builtin_commit_graph_usage, 0);
return fn(argc, argv, prefix);
Here each OPT_SUBCOMMAND specifies the name of the subcommand and the
function implementing it, and the address of the same 'fn' subcommand
function pointer. parse_options() then processes the arguments until
it finds the first argument matching one of the subcommands, sets 'fn'
to the function associated with that subcommand, and returns, leaving
the rest of the arguments unprocessed. If none of the listed
subcommands is found among the arguments, parse_options() will show
usage and abort.
If a command has a default operation mode, 'fn' should be initialized
to the function implementing that mode, and parse_options() should be
invoked with the PARSE_OPT_SUBCOMMAND_OPTIONAL flag. In this case
parse_options() won't error out when not finding any subcommands, but
will return leaving 'fn' unchanged. Note that if that default
operation mode has any --options, then the PARSE_OPT_KEEP_UNKNOWN_OPT
flag is necessary as well (otherwise parse_options() would error out
upon seeing the unknown option meant to the default operation mode).
Some thoughts about the implementation:
- The same pointer to 'fn' must be specified as 'value' for each
OPT_SUBCOMMAND, because there can be only one set of mutually
exclusive subcommands; parse_options() will BUG() otherwise.
There are other ways to tell parse_options() where to put the
function associated with the subcommand given on the command line,
but I didn't like them:
- Change parse_options()'s signature by adding a pointer to
subcommand function to be set to the function associated with
the given subcommand, affecting all callsites, even those that
don't have subcommands.
- Introduce a specific parse_options_and_subcommand() variant
with that extra funcion parameter.
- I decided against automatically calling the subcommand function
from within parse_options(), because:
- There are commands that have to perform additional actions
after option parsing but before calling the function
implementing the specified subcommand.
- The return code of the subcommand is usually the return code
of the git command, but preserving the return code of the
automatically called subcommand function would have made the
API awkward.
- Also add a OPT_SUBCOMMAND_F() variant to allow specifying an
option flag: we have two subcommands that are purposefully
excluded from completion ('git remote rm' and 'git stash save'),
so they'll have to be specified with the PARSE_OPT_NOCOMPLETE
flag.
- Some of the 'parse_opt_flags' don't make sense with subcommands,
and using them is probably just an oversight or misunderstanding.
Therefore parse_options() will BUG() when invoked with any of the
following flags while the options array contains at least one
OPT_SUBCOMMAND:
- PARSE_OPT_KEEP_DASHDASH: parse_options() stops parsing
arguments when encountering a "--" argument, so it doesn't
make sense to expect and keep one before a subcommand, because
it would prevent the parsing of the subcommand.
However, this flag is allowed in combination with the
PARSE_OPT_SUBCOMMAND_OPTIONAL flag, because the double dash
might be meaningful for the command's default operation mode,
e.g. to disambiguate refs and pathspecs.
- PARSE_OPT_STOP_AT_NON_OPTION: As its name suggests, this flag
tells parse_options() to stop as soon as it encouners a
non-option argument, but subcommands are by definition not
options... so how could they be parsed, then?!
- PARSE_OPT_KEEP_UNKNOWN: This flag can be used to collect any
unknown --options and then pass them to a different command or
subsystem. Surely if a command has subcommands, then this
functionality should rather be delegated to one of those
subcommands, and not performed by the command itself.
However, this flag is allowed in combination with the
PARSE_OPT_SUBCOMMAND_OPTIONAL flag, making possible to pass
--options to the default operation mode.
- If the command with subcommands has a default operation mode, then
all arguments to the command must preceed the arguments of the
subcommand.
AFAICT we don't have any commands where this makes a difference,
because in those commands either only the command accepts any
arguments ('notes' and 'remote'), or only the default subcommand
('reflog' and 'stash'), but never both.
- The 'argv' array passed to subcommand functions currently starts
with the name of the subcommand. Keep this behavior. AFAICT no
subcommand functions depend on the actual content of 'argv[0]',
but the parse_options() call handling their options expects that
the options start at argv[1].
- To support handling subcommands programmatically in our Bash
completion script, 'git cmd --git-completion-helper' will now list
both subcommands and regular --options, if any. This means that
the completion script will have to separate subcommands (i.e.
words without a double dash prefix) from --options on its own, but
that's rather easy to do, and it's not much work either, because
the number of subcommands a command might have is rather low, and
those commands accept only a single --option or none at all. An
alternative would be to introduce a separate option that lists
only subcommands, but then the completion script would need not
one but two git invocations and command substitutions for commands
with subcommands.
Note that this change doesn't affect the behavior of our Bash
completion script, because when completing the --option of a
command with subcommands, e.g. for 'git notes --<TAB>', then all
subcommands will be filtered out anyway, as none of them will
match the word to be completed starting with that double dash
prefix.
[1] Except 'git rerere', because many of its subcommands are
implemented in the bodies of the if-else if statements parsing the
command's subcommand argument.
[2] Except 'credential', 'credential-store' and 'fsmonitor--daemon',
because some of the functions implementing their subcommands take
special parameters.

When sorting the output of `git shortlog` by count, a list of authors in
alphabetical order is then sorted by contribution count. Obviously, the
idea is to maintain the alphabetical order for items with identical
contribution count.
At the moment, this job is performed by `qsort()`. As that function is
not guaranteed to implement a stable sort algorithm, this can lead to
inconsistent and/or surprising behavior: items with identical
contribution count could lose their alphabetical sub-order.
The `qsort()` in MS Visual C's runtime does _not_ implement a stable
sort algorithm, and under certain circumstances this even causes a test
failure in t4201.21 "shortlog can match multiple groups", where two
authors both are listed with 2 contributions, and are listed in inverse
alphabetical order.
Let's instead use the stable sort provided by `git_stable_qsort()` to
avoid this inconsistency.
This is a companion to 2049b8dc65 (diffcore_rename(): use a stable sort,

Change the "nr" and "alloc" members of "struct string_list" to use
"size_t" instead of "nr". On some platforms the size of an "unsigned
int" will be smaller than a "size_t", e.g. a 32 bit unsigned v.s. 64
bit unsigned. As "struct string_list" is a generic API we use in a lot
of places this might cause overflows.
As one example: code in "refs.c" keeps track of the number of refs
with a "size_t", and auxiliary code in builtin/remote.c in
get_ref_states() appends those to a "struct string_list".
While we're at it split the "nr" and "alloc" in string-list.h across
two lines, which is the case for most such struct member
declarations (e.g. in "strbuf.h" and "strvec.h").
Changing e.g. "int i" to "size_t i" in run_and_feed_hook() isn't
strictly necessary, and there are a lot more cases where we'll use a
local "int", "unsigned int" etc. variable derived from the "nr" in the
"struct string_list". But in that case as well as
add_wrapped_shortlog_msg() in builtin/shortlog.c we need to adjust the
printf format referring to "nr" anyway, so let's also change the other
variables referring to it.

This will help catch future bugs, such as the missing "case" arms in

third caller in 309be813c9 (update-index: migrate to parse-options

As can be seen when trying to sort through the deluge of warnings
produced when compiling this with CC=g++ (mostly unrelated to this

...
Remove support for the magical "repo-abbrev" comment in .mailmap
files. This was added to .mailmap parsing in [1], as a generalized
feature of the git-shortlog Perl script added earlier in [2].
There was no documentation or tests for this feature, and I don't
think it's used in practice anymore.
What it did was to allow you to specify a single string to be
search-replaced with "/.../" in the .mailmap file. E.g. for
linux.git's current .mailmap:
git archive --remote=git@gitlab.com:linux-kernel/linux.git \
HEAD -- .mailmap | grep -a repo-abbrev
# repo-abbrev: /pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/
Then when running e.g.:
git shortlog --merges --author=Linus -1 v5.10-rc7..v5.10 | grep Merge
We'd emit (the [...] is mine):
Merge tag [...]git://git.kernel.org/.../tip/tip
But will now emit:
Merge tag [...]git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
I think at this point this is just a historical artifact we can get
rid of. It was initially meant for Linus's own use when we integrated
the Perl script[2], but since then it seems he's stopped using it.
Digging through Linus's release announcements on the LKML[3] the last
release I can find that made use of this output is Linux 2.6.25-rc6
back in March 2008[4]. Later on Linus started using --no-merges[5],
and nowadays seems to prefer some custom not-quite-shortlog format of
merges from lieutenants[6].
You will still see it on linux.git if you run "git shortlog" manually
yourself with --merges, with this removed you can still get the same
output with:
git log --pretty=fuller v5.10-rc7..v5.10 |
sed 's!/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/!/.../!g' |
git shortlog
Arguably we should do the same for the search-replacing of "[PATCH]"
at the beginning with "". That seems to be another relic of a bygone
era when linux.git patches would have their E-Mail subject lines
applied as-is by "git am" or whatever. But we documented that feature
in "git-shortlog(1)", and it seems more widely applicable than
something purely kernel-specific.

Now that shortlog supports reading from trailers, it can be useful to
combine counts from multiple trailers, or between trailers and authors.
This can be done manually by post-processing the output from multiple
runs, but it's non-trivial to make sure that each name/commit pair is
counted only once.
This patch teaches shortlog to accept multiple --group options on the
command line, and pull data from all of them. That makes it possible to
run:
git shortlog -ns --group=author --group=trailer:co-authored-by
to get a shortlog that counts authors and co-authors equally.
The implementation is mostly straightforward. The "group" enum becomes a
bitfield, and the trailer key becomes a list. I didn't bother
implementing the multi-group semantics for reading from stdin. It would
be possible to do, but the existing matching code makes it awkward, and
I doubt anybody cares.
The duplicate suppression we used for trailers now covers authors and
committers as well (though in non-trailer single-group mode we can skip
the hash insertion and lookup, since we only see one value per commit).
There is one subtlety: we now care about the case when no group bit is
set (in which case we default to showing the author). The caller in
builtin/log.c needs to be adapted to ask explicitly for authors, rather
than relying on shortlog_init(). It would be possible with some
gymnastics to make this keep working as-is, but it's not worth it for a
single caller.

Trailers don't necessarily contain name/email identity values, so
shortlog has so far treated them as opaque strings. However, since many
trailers do contain identities, it's useful to treat them as such when
they can be parsed. That lets "-e" work as usual, as well as mailmap.
When they can't be parsed, we'll continue with the old behavior of
treating them as a single string (there's no new test for that here,
since the existing tests cover a trailer like this).

In the codebase, there are many options which use OPTION_CALLBACK in a
plain ol' struct definition. However, we have the OPT_CALLBACK and
OPT_CALLBACK_F macros which are meant to abstract these plain struct
definitions away. These macros are useful as they semantically signal to
developers that these are just normal callback option with nothing fancy
happening.
Replace plain struct definitions of OPTION_CALLBACK with OPT_CALLBACK or
OPT_CALLBACK_F where applicable. The heavy lifting was done using the
following (disgusting) shell script:
#!/bin/sh
do_replacement () {
tr '\n' '\r' |
sed -e 's/{\s*OPTION_CALLBACK,\s*\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\s*0,\(\s*[^[:space:]}]*\)\s*}/OPT_CALLBACK(\1,\2,\3,\4,\5,\6)/g' |

tr '\r' '\n'
}
for f in $(git ls-files \*.c)
do
do_replacement <"$f" >"$f.tmp"
mv "$f.tmp" "$f"
done
The result was manually inspected and then reformatted to match the
style of the surrounding code. Finally, using
`git grep OPTION_CALLBACK \*.c`, leftover results which were not handled
by the script were manually transformed.

are indeed single values of a certain type. The option
PARSE_OPT_LITERAL_ARGHELP needs to be used in option definitions with
arguments that have multiple parts or are literal strings.
Stop adding these angular brackets if special characters are present,
as they indicate that we don't deal with a simple placeholder. This

easier.

The original git-shortlog command parsed the output of
git-log, and the logic went something like this:
1. Read stdin looking for "author" lines.
2. Parse the identity into its name/email bits.
3. Apply mailmap to the name/email.
4. Reformat the identity into a single buffer that is our
"key" for grouping entries (either a name by default,
or "name <email>" if --email was given).
The first part happens in read_from_stdin(), and the other
three steps are part of insert_one_record().
When we do an internal traversal, we just swap out the stdin
read in step 1 for reading the commit objects ourselves.
Prior to 2db6b83d18 (shortlog: replace hand-parsing of
author with pretty-printer, 2016-01-18), that made sense; we
still had to parse the ident in the commit message.
But after that commit, we use pretty.c's "%an <%ae>" to get
the author ident (for simplicity). Which means that the
pretty printer is doing a parse/format under the hood, and
then we parse the result, apply the mailmap, and format the
result again.
Instead, we can just ask pretty.c to do all of those steps
for us (including the mailmap via "%aN <%aE>", and not
formatting the address when --email is missing).
And then we can push steps 2-4 into read_from_stdin(). This
speeds up "git shortlog -ns" on linux.git by about 3%, and
eliminates a leak in insert_one_record() of the namemailbuf
strbuf.

The string after_subject is added to a strbuf by pp_title_line() if
it's not NULL. Adding an empty string has the same effect as not
adding anything, but the latter is easier, so don't bother changing
the context member from NULL to "".

Add the email-style subject prefix (e.g. "Subject: [PATCH] ") directly
when it's needed instead of letting log_write_email_headers() prepare
it in a static buffer in advance. This simplifies storage ownership and
code flow.

In some situations you may want to group the commits not by author,
but by committer instead.
For example, when I just wanted to look up what I'm still missing from
linux-next in the current merge window, I don't care so much about who
wrote a patch, as what git tree it came from, which generally boils
down to "who committed it".
So make git shortlog take a "-c" or "--committer" option to switch
grouping to that.

The commands in the "log/diff" family have had an FILE* pointer in the
data structure they pass around for a long time, but some codepaths
used to always write to the standard output. As a preparatory step
to make "git format-patch" available to the internal callers, these
codepaths have been updated to consistently write into that FILE*
instead.
* js/log-to-diffopt-file:
mingw: fix the shortlog --output=<file> test
diff: do not color output when --color=auto and --output=<file> is given
t4211: ensure that log respects --output=<file>
shortlog: respect the --output=<file> setting
format-patch: use stdout directly
format-patch: avoid freopen()
format-patch: explicitly switch off color when writing to files
shortlog: support outputting to streams other than stdout
graph: respect the diffopt.file setting
line-log: respect diffopt's configured output file stream
log-tree: respect diffopt's configured output file stream
log: prepare log/log-tree to reuse the diffopt.close_file attribute
Thanks to the diff option parsing, we already know about this option.
We just have to make use of it.

There's no need for these option variables to be static,
except that they are referenced by the options array itself,
which is static. But having all of this static is simply
unnecessary and confusing (and inconsistent with most other
commands, which either use a static global option list or a
true function-local one).
Note that in some cases we may need to actually initialize
the variables (since we cannot rely on BSS to do so). This
is a net improvement to readability, though, as we can use
the more verbose initializers for our string_lists.

"git shortlog" used to accumulate various pieces of information
regardless of what was asked to be shown in the final output. It
has been optimized by noticing what need not to be collected
(e.g. there is no need to collect the log messages when showing
only the number of changes).
* jk/shortlog:
shortlog: don't warn on empty author
shortlog: optimize out useless string list
shortlog: optimize out useless "<none>" normalization
shortlog: optimize "--summary" mode
shortlog: replace hand-parsing of author with pretty-printer
shortlog: use strbufs to read from stdin
shortlog: match both "Author:" and "author" on stdin
Git tries to avoid creating a commit with an empty author
name or email. However, commits created by older, less
strict versions of git may still be in the history. There's
not much point in issuing a warning to stderr for an empty
author. The user can't do anything about it now, and we are
better off to simply include it in the shortlog output as an
empty name/email, and let the caller process it however they
see fit.
Older versions of shortlog differentiated between "author
header not present" (which complained) and "author
name/email are blank" (which included the empty ident in the
output). But since switching to format_commit_message, we
complain to stderr about either case (linux.git has a blank
author deep in its history which triggers this).
We could try to restore the older behavior (complaining only
about the missing header), but in retrospect, there's not
much point in differentiating these cases. A missing
author header is bogus, but as for the "blank" case, the
only useful behavior is to add it to the "empty name"
collection.

If we are in "--summary" mode, then we do not care about the
actual list of subject onelines associated with each author.
We care only about the number. So rather than store a
string-list for each author full of "<none>", let's just
keep a count.
This drops my best-of-five for "git shortlog -ns HEAD" on
linux.git from:
real 0m5.194s
user 0m5.028s
sys 0m0.168s
to:
real 0m5.057s
user 0m4.916s
sys 0m0.144s
That's about 2.5%.

If we are in --summary mode, we will always pass <none> to
insert_one_record, which will then do some normalization
(e.g., cutting out "[PATCH]"). There's no point in doing so
if we aren't going to use the result anyway.
This drops my best-of-five for "git shortlog -ns HEAD" on
linux.git from:
real 0m5.257s
user 0m5.104s
sys 0m0.156s
to:
real 0m5.194s
user 0m5.028s
sys 0m0.168s
That's only 1%, but arguably the result is clearer to read,
as we're able to group our variable declarations inside the
conditional block. It also opens up further optimization
possibilities for future patches.

If the user asked us only to show counts for each author,
rather than the individual summary lines, then there is no
point in us generating the summaries only to throw them
away. With this patch, I measured the following speedup for
"git shortlog -ns HEAD" on linux.git (best-of-five):
[before]
real 0m5.644s
user 0m5.472s
sys 0m0.176s
[after]
real 0m5.257s
user 0m5.104s
sys 0m0.156s
That's only ~7%, but it's so easy to do, there's no good
reason not to. We don't have to touch any downstream code,
since we already fill in the magic string "<none>" to handle
commits without a message.

When gathering the author and oneline subject for each
commit, we hand-parse the commit headers to find the
"author" line, and then continue past to the blank line at
the end of the header.
We can replace this tricky hand-parsing by simply asking the
pretty-printer for the relevant items. This also decouples
the author and oneline parsing, opening up some new
optimizations in further commits.
One reason to avoid the pretty-printer is that it might be
less efficient than hand-parsing. However, I measured no
slowdown at all running "git shortlog -ns HEAD" on
linux.git.
As a bonus, we also fix a memory leak in the (uncommon) case
that the author field is blank.

We currently use fixed-size buffers with fgets(), which
could lead to incorrect results in the unlikely event that a
line had something like "Author:" at exactly its 1024th
character.
But it's easy to convert this to a strbuf, and because we
can reuse the same buffer through the loop, we don't even
pay the extra allocation cost.
