* [RFC PATCH 0/3] Make fsck check other worktree HEADs @ 2018-02-09 23:13 Elijah Newren 2018-02-09 23:13 ` [RFC PATCH 1/3] fsck: Move fsck_head_link() to get_default_heads() to avoid some globals Elijah Newren ` (2 more replies) 0 siblings, 3 replies; 7+ messages in thread From: Elijah Newren @ 2018-02-09 23:13 UTC (permalink / raw) To: git; +Cc: pclouds, peff, Elijah Newren This patchset adds checking of other worktree HEADs to fsck. The reason I've marked this RFC is that I'm worried my incidental reliance on "worktrees/$WORKTREE/HEAD" resolving as a ref (in patch 3) might raise some flags for others. In particular, in [1] Peff said that this refname resolves right now mostly by accident and will probably stop working in the future. However, I feel that since fsck checks the storage format as well as contents, it seems natural that a change of storage model would result in the fsck code changing and thus that I'm not locking in any particular ref format long term with these changes. But I want to flag this issue for discussion.

I'm leaning more about something like this patch below (which does not even build, just to demonstrate). A couple points: - Instead of doing the hacky refs worktrees/foo/HEAD, we get the correct ref store for each worktree - We have an API for getting all (non-broken) worktrees. I realize for fsck, we may even want to examine semi-broken worktrees as well, but get_worktrees() can take a flag to accomplish that if needed. - As you can see, I print %p from the ref store instead of something human friendly. This is something I was stuck at last time. I need better ref store description (or even the worktree name) - This ref_name() function makes me think if we should have an extended sha1 syntax for accessing per-worktree refs from a different worktree, something like HEAD@{worktree:foo} to resolve to worktrees/foo/HEAD. Then we have a better description here that can actually be used from command line, as a regular ref, if needed. -- 8< -- diff --git a/builtin/fsck.c b/builtin/fsck.c index 4132034170..73cfcbc07a 100644 --- a/builtin/fsck.c +++ b/builtin/fsck.c @@ -16,6 +16,7 @@ #include "streaming.h" #include "decorate.h" #include "packfile.h" +#include "worktree.h" #define REACHABLE 0x0001 #define SEEN 0x0002 @@ -451,17 +452,39 @@ static int fsck_handle_ref(const char *refname, const struct object_id *oid, return 0; } -static int fsck_head_link(const char **head_points_at, +static const char *ref_name(struct ref_store *refs, const char *name) +{ + static struct strbuf sb = STRBUF_INIT; + + if (!refs) + return name; + strbuf_reset(&sb); + strbuf_addf(&sb, "%s (from %p)", name, refs); + return sb.buf; +} + +static int fsck_head_link(struct ref_store *refs, + const char **head_points_at, struct object_id *head_oid); static void get_default_heads(void) { const char *head_points_at; struct object_id head_oid; + struct worktree **worktrees, **wt; - fsck_head_link(&head_points_at, &head_oid); + fsck_head_link(NULL, &head_points_at, &head_oid); if (head_points_at && !is_null_oid(&head_oid)) fsck_handle_ref("HEAD", &head_oid, 0, NULL); + + worktrees = get_worktrees(0); + for (wt = worktrees; *wt; wt++) { + fsck_head_link(get_worktree_ref_store(*wt), &head_points_at, &head_oid); + if (head_points_at && !is_null_oid(&head_oid)) + fsck_handle_ref(*wt, "HEAD", &head_oid, 0, NULL); + } + free_worktrees(wt); + for_each_rawref(fsck_handle_ref, NULL); if (include_reflogs) for_each_reflog(fsck_handle_reflog, NULL); @@ -553,34 +576,36 @@ static void fsck_object_dir(const char *path) stop_progress(&progress); } -static int fsck_head_link(const char **head_points_at, +static int fsck_head_link(struct ref_store *refs, + const char **head_points_at, struct object_id *head_oid) { int null_is_error = 0; if (verbose) - fprintf(stderr, "Checking HEAD link\n"); + fprintf(stderr, "Checking %s link\n", ref_name(refs, "HEAD")); - *head_points_at = resolve_ref_unsafe("HEAD", 0, head_oid, NULL); + *head_points_at = refs_resolve_ref_unsafe(refs, "HEAD", 0, head_oid, NULL); if (!*head_points_at) { errors_found |= ERROR_REFS; - return error("Invalid HEAD"); + return error("Invalid HEAD from ref-store %p", refs); } if (!strcmp(*head_points_at, "HEAD")) /* detached HEAD */ null_is_error = 1; else if (!starts_with(*head_points_at, "refs/heads/")) { errors_found |= ERROR_REFS; - return error("HEAD points to something strange (%s)", - *head_points_at); + return error("%s points to something strange (%s)", + ref_name(refs, "HEAD"), *head_points_at); } if (is_null_oid(head_oid)) { if (null_is_error) { errors_found |= ERROR_REFS; - return error("HEAD: detached HEAD points at nothing"); + return error("%s: detached HEAD points at nothing", + ref_name(refs, "HEAD")); } - fprintf(stderr, "notice: HEAD points to an unborn branch (%s)\n", - *head_points_at + 11); + fprintf(stderr, "notice: %s points to an unborn branch (%s)\n", + ref_name(refs, "HEAD"), *head_points_at + 11); } return 0; } diff --git a/t/t1450-fsck.sh b/t/t1450-fsck.sh index fa94c59458..3da651be4c 100755 --- a/t/t1450-fsck.sh +++ b/t/t1450-fsck.sh @@ -102,7 +102,7 @@ test_expect_success 'HEAD link pointing at a funny place' ' grep "HEAD points to something strange" out ' -test_expect_failure 'other worktree HEAD link pointing at a funny object' ' +test_expect_success 'other worktree HEAD link pointing at a funny object' ' test_when_finished "rm -rf .git/worktrees" && mkdir -p .git/worktrees/other && echo 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 >.git/worktrees/other/HEAD && @@ -111,7 +111,7 @@ test_expect_failure 'other worktree HEAD link pointing at a funny object' ' grep "worktrees/other/HEAD: detached HEAD points" out ' -test_expect_failure 'other worktree HEAD link pointing at missing object' ' +test_expect_success 'other worktree HEAD link pointing at missing object' ' test_when_finished "rm -rf .git/worktrees" && mkdir -p .git/worktrees/other && echo "Contents missing from repo" | git hash-object --stdin >.git/worktrees/other/HEAD && @@ -120,7 +120,7 @@ test_expect_failure 'other worktree HEAD link pointing at missing object' ' grep "worktrees/other/HEAD: invalid sha1 pointer" out ' -test_expect_failure 'other worktree HEAD link pointing at a funny place' ' +test_expect_success 'other worktree HEAD link pointing at a funny place' ' test_when_finished "rm -rf .git/worktrees" && mkdir -p .git/worktrees/other && echo "ref: refs/funny/place" >.git/worktrees/other/HEAD && -- 8< -- ^ permalink raw reply related [flat|nested] 7+ messages in thread

We know about worktrees internally, and we should be able to iterate over their ref stores, even if we have no way to succinctly name the resulting ref. > - This ref_name() function makes me think if we should have an > extended sha1 syntax for accessing per-worktree refs from a > different worktree, something like HEAD@{worktree:foo} to resolve to > worktrees/foo/HEAD.

I peeked at how bad it would be to hanlde this. The parsing is pretty easy in get_oid_basic(), but you'd have to plumb through the ref_store in quite a few places: - interpret_nth_prior_checkout() would probably want to use the worktree's HEAD (for "@{worktree:foo}@{-1}") - dwim_ref() would need to know about the ref store - that implies that substitute_branch_name() knows about it, too So it may turn into a big job. But I think it's moving in the right direction. And it may not be the end of the world if all features do not work from day one (e.g., if HEAD@{worktree:foo} works, but HEAD@{worktree:foo}@{upstream} does not yet, with plans to eventually make that work). -Peff ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 7+ messages in thread

When I saw that "fsck" thing, the first thing I wondered was "wait, how are we doing prune and repack while making sure objects reachable only from HEAD in other worktrees are not lost? we must already have an API that gives us where the refs of them are stored in".
