The pop_most_recent_commit() function can have quite expensive worst case performance characteristics, which has been optimized by using prio-queue data structure. * rs/pop-recent-commit-with-prio-queue: commit: use prio_queue_replace() in pop_most_recent_commit() prio-queue: add prio_queue_replace() commit: convert pop_most_recent_commit() to prio_queue
2025-07-22commit: convert pop_most_recent_commit() to prio_queueRené Scharfe
pop_most_recent_commit() calls commit_list_insert_by_date() for parent commits, which is itself called in a loop. This can lead to quadratic complexity if there are many merges. Replace the commit_list with a prio_queue to ensure logarithmic worst case complexity and convert all three users. Add a performance test that exercises one of them using a pathological history that consists of 50% merges and 50% root commits to demonstrate the speedup: Test v2.50.1 HEAD ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1501.2: rev-parse ':/65535' 2.48(2.47+0.00) 0.20(0.19+0.00) -91.9% Alas, sane histories don't benefit from the conversion much, and traversing Git's own history takes a 1% performance hit on my machine: $ hyperfine -w3 -L git ./git_2.50.1,./git '{git} rev-parse :/^Initial.revision' Benchmark 1: ./git_2.50.1 rev-parse :/^Initial.revision Time (mean ± σ): 1.071 s ± 0.004 s [User: 1.052 s, System: 0.017 s] Range (min … max): 1.067 s … 1.078 s 10 runs Benchmark 2: ./git rev-parse :/^Initial.revision Time (mean ± σ): 1.079 s ± 0.003 s [User: 1.060 s, System: 0.017 s] Range (min … max): 1.074 s … 1.083 s 10 runs Summary ./git_2.50.1 rev-parse :/^Initial.revision ran 1.01 ± 0.00 times faster than ./git rev-parse :/^Initial.revision Signed-off-by: René Scharfe <l.s.r@web.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2025-07-15packfile: refactor `get_multi_pack_index()` to work on sourcesPatrick Steinhardt
The function `get_multi_pack_index()` loads multi-pack indices via `prepare_packed_git()` and then returns the linked list of multi-pack indices that is stored in `struct object_database`. That list is in the process of being removed though in favor of storing the MIDX as part of the object database source it belongs to. Refactor `get_multi_pack_index()` so that it returns the multi-pack index for a single object source. Callers are now expected to call this function for each source they are interested in. This requires them to iterate through alternates, so we have to prepare alternate object sources before doing so.

2025-07-01odb: get rid of `the_repository` when handling alternatesPatrick Steinhardt
The functions to manage alternates all depend on `the_repository`. Refactor them to accept an object database as a parameter and adjust all callers. The functions are renamed accordingly. Note that right now the situation is still somewhat weird because we end up using the object store path provided by the object store's repository anyway. Consequently, we could have instead passed in a pointer to the repository instead of passing in the pointer to the object store. This will be addressed in subsequent commits though, where we will start to use the path owned by the object store itself.

2025-07-01object-store: rename `object_directory` to `odb_source`Patrick Steinhardt
The `object_directory` structure is used as an access point for a single object directory like ".git/objects". While the structure isn't yet fully self-contained, the intent is for it to eventually contain all information required to access objects in one specific location. While the name "object directory" is a good fit for now, this will change over time as we continue with the agenda to make pluggable object databases a thing. Eventually, objects may not be accessed via any kind of directory at all anymore, but they could instead be backed by any kind of durable storage mechanism. While it seems quite far-fetched for now, it is thinkable that eventually this might even be some form of a database, for example. As such, the current name of this structure will become worse over time as we evolve into the direction of pluggable ODBs. Immediate next steps will start to carve out proper self-contained object directories, which requires us to pass in these object directories as parameters. Based on our modern naming schema this means that those functions should then be named after their subsystem, which means that we would start to bake the current name into the codebase more and more. Let's preempt this by renaming the structure. There have been a couple alternatives that were discussed: - `odb_backend` was discarded because it led to the association that one object database has a single backend, but the model is that one alternate has one backend. Furthermore, "backend" is more about the actual backing implementation and less about the high-level concept. - `odb_alternate` was discarded because it is a bit of a stretch to also call the main object directory an "alternate". Instead, pick `odb_source` as the new name. It makes it sufficiently clear that there can be multiple sources and does not cause confusion when mixed with the already-existing "alternate" terminology. In the future, this change allows us to easily introduce for example a `odb_files_source` and other format-specific implementations.

2025-06-12object-name: make get_oid quietly return an errorbrian m. carlson
A reasonable person looking at the signature and usage of get_oid and friends might conclude that in the event of an error, it always returns -1. However, this is not the case. Instead, get_oid_basic dies if we go too far back into the history of a reflog (or, when quiet, simply exits). This is not especially useful, since in many cases, we might want to handle this error differently. Let's add a flag here to make it just return -1 like elsewhere in these code paths. Note that we cannot make this behavior the default, since we have many other codepaths that rely on the existing behavior, including in tests.

When reading an object ID via `get_oid_basic()` or any of its related functions we perform a check whether the object ID is ambiguous, which can be the case when a reference with the same name exists.

2025-01-13object-name: be more strict in parsing describe-like outputElijah Newren
From Documentation/revisions.txt: '<describeOutput>', e.g. 'v1.7.4.2-679-g3bee7fb':: Output from `git describe`; i.e. a closest tag, optionally followed by a dash and a number of commits, followed by a dash, a 'g', and an abbreviated object name. which means that output of the format ${REFNAME}-${INTEGER}-g${HASH} should parse to fully expanded ${HASH}. This is fine. However, we currently don't validate any of ${REFNAME}-${INTEGER}, we only parse -g${HASH} and assume the rest is valid. That is problematic, since it breaks things like git cat-file -p branchname:path/to/file/named/i-gaffed which, when commit (or tree or blob) affed exists, will not return us information about the file we are looking for but will instead erroneously tell us about object affed. A few additional notes: - This is a slight backward incompatibility break, because we used to allow ${GARBAGE}-g${HASH} as a way to spell ${HASH}. However, a backward incompatible break is necessary, because there is no other way for someone to be more specific and disambiguate that they want the blob master:path/to/who-gabbed instead of the object abbed. - There is a possibility that check_refname_format() rules change in the future. However, we can only realistically loosen the rules for what that function accepts rather than tighten. If we were to tighten the rules, some real world repositories may already have refnames that suddenly become unacceptable and we break those repositories. As such, any describe-like syntax of the form ${VALID_FOR_A_REFNAME}-${INTEGER}-g${HASH} that is valid with the changes in this commit will remain valid in the future. - The fact that check_refname_format() rules could loosen in the future is probably also an important reason to make this change. If the rules loosen, there might be additional cases within ${GARBAGE}-g${HASH} that become ambiguous in the future. While abbreviated hashes can be disambiguated by abbreviating less, it may well be that these alternative object names have no way of being disambiguated (much like pathnames cannot be). Accepting all random ${GARBAGE} thus makes it difficult for us to allow future extensions to object naming. So, tighten up the parsing to make sure ${REFNAME} and ${INTEGER} are present in the string, and would be considered a valid ref and non-negative integer. Also, add a few tests for git describe using object names of the form ${REVISION_NAME}${MODIFIERS} since an early version of this patch failed on constructs like git describe v2.48.0-rc2-161-g6c2274cdbc^0 Reported-by: Gabriel Amaral <gabriel-amaral@github.com> Signed-off-by: Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2025-01-13object-name: fix resolution of object names containing curly bracesElijah Newren
Given a branch name of 'foo{bar', commands like git cat-file -p foo{bar:README.md should succeed (assuming that branch had a README.md file, of course). However, the change in cce91a2caef9 (Change 'master@noon' syntax to 'master@{noon}'., 2006-05-19) presumed that curly braces would always come after an '@' or '^' and be paired, causing e.g. 'foo{bar:README.md' to entirely miss the ':' and assume there's no object being referenced. In short, git would report: fatal: Not a valid object name foo{bar:README.md Change the parsing to only make the assumption of paired curly braces immediately after either a '@' or '^' character appears. Add tests for this, as well as for a few other test cases that initial versions of this patch broke: * 'foo@@{...}' * 'foo^{/${SEARCH_TEXT_WITH_COLON}}:${PATH}' Note that we'd prefer not duplicating the special logic for "@^" characters here, because if get_oid_basic() or interpret_nth_prior_checkout() or get_oid_basic() or similar gain extra methods of using curly braces, then the logic in get_oid_with_context_1() would need to be updated as well. But it's not clear how to refactor all of these to have a simple common callpoint with the specialized logic.

2024-12-08object-name: fix reversed ordering with ":/<text>" revisionsPatrick Steinhardt
Recently it was reported [1] that "look for the youngest commit reachable from any ref with log message that match the given pattern" syntax (i.e. ':/<text>') started to return results in reverse recency order. This regression was introduced in Git v2.47.0 and is caused by a memory leak fix done in 57fb139b5e (object-name: fix leaking commit list items, 2024-08-01). The intent of the identified commit is to stop modifying the commit list provided by the caller such that the caller can properly free all commit list items, including those that the called function might potentially remove from the list. This was done by creating a copy of the passed-in commit list and modifying this copy instead of the caller-provided list. We already knew to create such a copy beforehand with the `backup` list, which was used to clear the `ONELINE_SEEN` commit mark after we were done. So the refactoring simply renamed that list to `copy` and started to operate on that list instead. There is a gotcha though: the backup list, and thus now also the copied list, is always being prepended to, so the resulting list is in reverse order! The end result is that we pop commits from the wrong end of the commit list, returning commits in reverse recency order. Fix the bug by appending to the list instead.

Same as the preceding commits, storing the "core.warnAmbiguousRefs" value globally is misdesigned as this setting may be set per repository. Move the logic into the repo-settings subsystem. The usual pattern here is that users are expected to call `prepare_repo_settings()` before they access the settings themselves. This seems somewhat fragile though, as it is easy to miss and leads to somewhat ugly code patterns at the call sites. Instead, introduce a new function that encapsulates this logic for us. This also allows us to change how exactly the lazy initialization works in the future, e.g. by only partially initializing values as requested by the caller.

The `bsearch_midx()` function will be extended in a following commit to search for the location of a given object ID across all MIDXs in a chain (or the single non-chain MIDX if no chain is available). While most callers will naturally want to use the updated `bsearch_midx()` function, there are a handful of special cases that will want finer control and will only want to search through a single MIDX. For instance, the object abbreviation code, which cares about object IDs near to where we'd expect to find a match in a MIDX. In that case, we want to look at the nearby matches in each layer of the MIDX chain, not just a single one). Split the more fine-grained control out into a separate function called `bsearch_one_midx()` which searches only a single MIDX. At present both `bsearch_midx()` and `bsearch_one_midx()` have identical behavior, but the following commit will rewrite the former to be aware of incremental MIDXs for the remaining non-special case callers.

2024-08-01object-name: fix leaking commit list itemsPatrick Steinhardt
When calling `get_oid_oneline()`, we pass in a `struct commit_list` that gets modified by the function. This creates a weird situation where the commit list may sometimes be empty after returning, but sometimes it will continue to carry additional commits. In those cases the remainder of the list leaks. Ultimately, the design where we only pass partial ownership to `get_oid_oneline()` feels shoddy. Refactor the code such that we only pass a constant pointer to the list, creating a local copy as needed. Callers are thus always responsible for freeing the commit list, which then allows us to plug a bunch of memory leaks.

2024-06-14global: introduce `USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE` macroPatrick Steinhardt
Use of the `the_repository` variable is deprecated nowadays, and we slowly but steadily convert the codebase to not use it anymore. Instead, callers should be passing down the repository to work on via parameters. It is hard though to prove that a given code unit does not use this variable anymore. The most trivial case, merely demonstrating that there is no direct use of `the_repository`, is already a bit of a pain during code reviews as the reviewer needs to manually verify claims made by the patch author. The bigger problem though is that we have many interfaces that implicitly rely on `the_repository`. Introduce a new `USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE` macro that allows code units to opt into usage of `the_repository`. The intent of this macro is to demonstrate that a certain code unit does not use this variable anymore, and to keep it from new dependencies on it in future changes, be it explicit or implicit For now, the macro only guards `the_repository` itself as well as `the_hash_algo`. There are many more known interfaces where we have an implicit dependency on `the_repository`, but those are not guarded at the current point in time. Over time though, we should start to add guards as required (or even better, just remove them). Define the macro as required in our code units. As expected, most of our code still relies on the global variable. Nearly all of our builtins rely on the variable as there is no way yet to pass `the_repository` to their entry point. For now, declare the macro in "biultin.h" to keep the required changes at least a little bit more contained.

2024-06-12object-name: don't try to abbreviate to lengths greater than hexszPatrick Steinhardt
When given a length that equals the current hash algorithm's hex size, then `repo_find_unique_abbrev_r()` exits early without trying to find an abbreviation. This is only sensible because there is nothing to abbreviate in the first place, so searching through objects to find a unique prefix would be a waste of compute. What we don't handle though is the case where the user passes a length greater than the hash length. This is fine in practice as we still compute the correct result. But at the very least, this is a waste of resources as we try to abbreviate a value that cannot be abbreviated, which causes us to hit the object database. Start to explicitly handle values larger than hexsz to avoid this performance penalty, which leads to a measureable speedup.

2024-06-11object-name: free leaking object contextsPatrick Steinhardt
While it is documented in `struct object_context::path` that this variable needs to be released by the caller, this fact is rather easy to miss given that we do not ever provide a function to release the object context. And of course, while some callers dutifully release the path, many others don't. Introduce a new `object_context_release()` function that releases the path. Convert callsites that used to free the path to use that new function and add missing calls to callsites that were leaking memory. Refactor those callsites as required to have a single return path, only. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2024-02-26get_oid_basic(): special-case ref@{n} for oldest reflog entryJeff King
The goal of 6436a20284 (refs: allow @{n} to work with n-sized reflog, 2021-01-07) was that if we have "n" entries in a reflog, we should still be able to resolve ref@{n} by looking at the "old" value of the oldest entry. Commit 6436a20284 tried to put the logic into read_ref_at() by shifting its idea of "n" by one. But we reverted that in the previous commit, since it led to bugs in other callers which cared about the details of the reflog entry we found. Instead, let's put the special case into the caller that resolves @{n}, as it cares only about the oid. read_ref_at() is even kind enough to return the "old" value from the final reflog; it just returns "1" to signal to us that we ran off the end of the reflog. But we can notice in the caller that we read just enough records for that "old" value to be the one we're looking for, and use it. Note that read_ref_at() could notice this case, too, and just return 0. But we don't want to do that, because the caller must be made aware that we only found the oid, not an actual reflog entry (and the call sites in show-branch do care about this). There is one complication, though. When read_ref_at() hits a truncated reflog, it will return the "old" value of the oldest entry only if it is not the null oid. Otherwise, it actually returns the "new" value from that entry! This bit of fudging is due to d1a4489a56 (avoid null SHA1 in oldest reflog, 2008-07-08), where asking for "ref@{20.years.ago}" for a ref created recently will produce the initial value as a convenience (even though technically it did not exist 20 years ago). But this convenience is only useful for time-based cutoffs. For count-based cutoffs, get_oid_basic() has always simply complained about going too far back: $ git rev-parse HEAD@{20} fatal: log for 'HEAD' only has 16 entries and we should continue to do so, rather than returning a nonsense value (there's even a test in t1508 already which covers this). So let's have the d1a4489a56 code kick in only when doing timestamp-based cutoffs. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2023-10-02object-names: support input of oids in any supported hashEric W. Biederman
Support short oids encoded in any algorithm, while ensuring enough of the oid is specified to disambiguate between all of the oids in the repository encoded in any algorithm. By default have the code continue to only accept oids specified in the storage hash algorithm of the repository, but when something is ambiguous display all of the possible oids from any accepted oid encoding. A new flag is added GET_OID_HASH_ANY that when supplied causes the code to accept oids specified in any hash algorithm, and to return the oids that were resolved. This implements the functionality that allows both SHA-1 and SHA-256 object names, from the "Object names on the command line" section of the hash function transition document. Care is taken in get_short_oid so that when the result is ambiguous the output remains the same if GIT_OID_HASH_ANY was not supplied. If GET_OID_HASH_ANY was supplied objects of any hash algorithm that match the prefix are displayed. This required updating repo_for_each_abbrev to give it a parameter so that it knows to look at all hash algorithms. Signed-off-by: "Eric W.
