merge-recursive: leave unmerged entries in the index.

This does two things.

 - When one branch renamed and the other branch did not, the
   resulting half-merged file in the working tree used to swap
   branches around and showed as if renaming side was "ours".
   This was confusing and inconsistent (even though the conflict
   markers were marked with branch names, it was not a good
   enough excuse).  This changes the order of arguments to
   mergeFile in such a case to make sure we always see "our"
   change between <<< and ===, and "their" change between ===
   and >>>.

 - When both branches renamed to the same path, and when one
   branch renamed and the other branch did not, we attempt
   mergeFile.  When this automerge conflicted, we used to
   collapse the index.  Now we use update-index --index-info
   to inject higher stage entries to leave the index in unmerged
   state for these two cases.

What this still does _not_ do is to inject unmerged state into
the index when the structural changes conflict.  I have not
thought things through what to do in each case yet, but the
cases this commit cover are the most common ones, so this would

18 years agoupdate-index: allow --index-info to add higher stages.
Junio C Hamano [Wed, 7 Dec 2005 09:45:38 +0000 (01:45 -0800)]
update-index: allow --index-info to add higher stages.

The new merge world order tells the merge strategies to leave
the cache unmerged and store the automerge result in the working
tree if automerge is not clean.  This was done for the resolve
strategy and recursive strategy when no rename is involved, but
recording a conflicting merge in the rename case could not
easily be done by the recursive strategy.

This commit adds a new input format, in addition to the exsting
two, to "update-index --index-info".

    (1) mode         SP sha1          TAB path
    The first format is what "git-apply --index-info"
    reports, and used to reconstruct a partial tree
    that is used for phony merge base tree when falling
    back on 3-way merge.

    (2) mode SP type SP sha1          TAB path
    The second format is to stuff git-ls-tree output
    into the index file.

    (3) mode         SP sha1 SP stage TAB path
    This format is to put higher order stages into the
    index file and matches git-ls-files --stage output.

To place a higher stage entry to the index, the path should
first be removed by feeding a mode=0 entry for the path, and
then feeding necessary input lines in the (3) format.

For example, starting with this index:

$ git ls-files -s
100644 8a1218a1024a212bb3db30becd860315f9f3ac52 0       frotz

$ git update-index --index-info ;# interactive session -- input follows...

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 frotz
100644 8a1218a1024a212bb3db30becd860315f9f3ac52 1 frotz
100755 8a1218a1024a212bb3db30becd860315f9f3ac52 2 frotz

The first line of the input feeds 0 as the mode to remove the
path; the SHA1 does not matter as long as it is well formatted.
Then the second and third line feeds stage 1 and stage 2 entries
for that path.  After the above, we would end up with this:

$ git ls-files -s
100644 8a1218a1024a212bb3db30becd860315f9f3ac52 1 frotz
100755 8a1218a1024a212bb3db30becd860315f9f3ac52 2 frotz

We somehow ended up registering packs in alternate object
directories as "dir/object//pack/pack-*", which confusd the
update-server-info code very badly.  Also we did not attempt to
detect a mistake of listing the object directory itself as one
of the alternates. This does not lead to incorrect behaviour,

18 years ago[PATCH] daemon.c and path.enter_repo(): revamp path validation.
Junio C Hamano [Sat, 3 Dec 2005 09:45:57 +0000 (01:45 -0800)]
[PATCH] daemon.c and path.enter_repo(): revamp path validation.

The whitelist of git-daemon is checked against return value from
enter_repo(), and enter_repo() used to return the value obtained
from getcwd() to avoid directory aliasing issues as discussed
earier (mid October 2005).

Unfortunately, it did not go well as we hoped.

For example, /pub on a kernel.org public machine is a symlink to
its real mountpoint, and it is understandable that the
administrator does not want to adjust the whitelist every time
/pub needs to point at a different partition for storage
allcation or whatever reasons.  Being able to keep using
/pub/scm as the whitelist is a desirable property.

So this version of enter_repo() reports what it used to chdir()
and validate, but does not use getcwd() to canonicalize the
directory name.  When it sees a user relative path ~user/path,
it internally resolves it to try chdir() there, but it still
reports ~user/path (possibly after appending .git if allowed to
do so, in which case it would report ~user/path.git).

What this means is that if a whitelist wants to allow a user
relative path, it needs to say "~" (for all users) or list user
home directories like "~alice" "~bob".  And no, you cannot say
/home if the advertised way to access user home directories are
~alice,~bob, etc.  The whole point of this is to avoid
unnecessary aliasing issues.

Anyway, because of this, daemon needs to do a bit more work to
guard itself.  Namely, it needs to make sure that the accessor
does not try to exploit its leading path match rule by inserting
/../ in the middle or hanging /.. at the end.  I resurrected the
belts and suspender paranoia code HPA did for this purpose.

This check cannot be done in the enter_repo() unconditionally,
because there are valid callers of enter_repo() that want to
honor /../; authorized users coming over ssh to run send-pack
and fetch-pack should be allowed to do so.
