There are lots of places in 'commit-graph.h' where a function either has (or almost has) a full 'struct object_directory *', accesses '->path', and then throws away the rest of the struct. This can cause headaches when comparing the locations of object directories across alternates (e.g., in the case of deciding if two commit-graph layers can be merged). These paths are normalized with 'normalize_path_copy()' which mitigates some comparison issues, but not all [1]. Replace usage of 'char *object_dir' with 'odb->path' by storing a 'struct object_directory *' in the 'write_commit_graph_context' structure. This is an intermediate step towards getting rid of all path normalization in 'commit-graph.c'. Resolving a user-provided '--object-dir' argument now requires that we compare it to the known alternates for equality. Prior to this patch, an unknown '--object-dir' argument would silently exit with status zero. This can clearly lead to unintended behavior, such as verifying commit-graphs that aren't in a repository's own object store (or one of its alternates), or causing a typo to mask a legitimate commit-graph verification failure. Make this error non-silent by 'die()'-ing when the given '--object-dir' does not match any known alternate object store. [1]: In my testing, for example, I can get one side of the commit-graph code to fill object_dir with "./objects" and the other with just "objects".

NAME
|
|
----
|
|
git-commit-graph - Write and verify Git commit-graph files
|
|
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
[verse]
|
|
'git commit-graph verify' [--object-dir <dir>] [--shallow] [--[no-]progress]
|
|
'git commit-graph write' <options> [--object-dir <dir>] [--[no-]progress]
|
|
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
Manage the serialized commit-graph file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS
|
|
-------
|
|
--object-dir::
|
|
Use given directory for the location of packfiles and commit-graph
|
|
file. This parameter exists to specify the location of an alternate
|
|
that only has the objects directory, not a full `.git` directory. The
|
|
commit-graph file is expected to be in the `<dir>/info` directory and
|
|
the packfiles are expected to be in `<dir>/pack`. If the directory
|
|
could not be made into an absolute path, or does not match any known
|
|
object directory, `git commit-graph ...` will exit with non-zero
|
|
status.
|
|
|
|
--[no-]progress::
|
|
Turn progress on/off explicitly. If neither is specified, progress is
|
|
shown if standard error is connected to a terminal.
|
|
|
|
COMMANDS
|
|
--------
|
|
'write'::
|
|
|
|
Write a commit-graph file based on the commits found in packfiles.
|
|
+
|
|
With the `--stdin-packs` option, generate the new commit graph by
|
|
walking objects only in the specified pack-indexes. (Cannot be combined
|
|
with `--stdin-commits` or `--reachable`.)
|
|
+
|
|
With the `--stdin-commits` option, generate the new commit graph by
|
|
walking commits starting at the commits specified in stdin as a list
|
|
of OIDs in hex, one OID per line. (Cannot be combined with
|
|
`--stdin-packs` or `--reachable`.)
|
|
+
|
|
With the `--reachable` option, generate the new commit graph by walking
|
|
commits starting at all refs. (Cannot be combined with `--stdin-commits`
|
|
or `--stdin-packs`.)
|
|
+
|
|
With the `--append` option, include all commits that are present in the
|
|
existing commit-graph file.
|
|
+
|
|
With the `--split` option, write the commit-graph as a chain of multiple
|
|
commit-graph files stored in `<dir>/info/commit-graphs`. The new commits
|
|
not already in the commit-graph are added in a new "tip" file. This file
|
|
is merged with the existing file if the following merge conditions are
|
|
met:
|
|
+
|
|
* If `--size-multiple=<X>` is not specified, let `X` equal 2. If the new
|
|
tip file would have `N` commits and the previous tip has `M` commits and
|
|
`X` times `N` is greater than `M`, instead merge the two files into a
|
|
single file.
|
|
+
|
|
* If `--max-commits=<M>` is specified with `M` a positive integer, and the
|
|
new tip file would have more than `M` commits, then instead merge the new
|
|
tip with the previous tip.
|
|
+
|
|
Finally, if `--expire-time=<datetime>` is not specified, let `datetime`
|
|
be the current time. After writing the split commit-graph, delete all
|
|
unused commit-graph whose modified times are older than `datetime`.
|
|
|
|
'verify'::
|
|
|
|
Read the commit-graph file and verify its contents against the object
|
|
database. Used to check for corrupted data.
|
|
+
|
|
With the `--shallow` option, only check the tip commit-graph file in
|
|
a chain of split commit-graphs.
|
|
|
|
|
|
EXAMPLES
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
* Write a commit-graph file for the packed commits in your local `.git`
|
|
directory.
|
|
+
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
$ git commit-graph write
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
* Write a commit-graph file, extending the current commit-graph file
|
|
using commits in `<pack-index>`.
|
|
+
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
$ echo <pack-index> | git commit-graph write --stdin-packs
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
* Write a commit-graph file containing all reachable commits.
|
|
+
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
$ git show-ref -s | git commit-graph write --stdin-commits
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
* Write a commit-graph file containing all commits in the current
|
|
commit-graph file along with those reachable from `HEAD`.
|
|
+
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
$ git rev-parse HEAD | git commit-graph write --stdin-commits --append
|
|
