[PATCH v6 00/17] Port branch.c to use ref-filter's printing options

[PATCH v6 00/17] Port branch.c to use ref-filter's printing options

[Karthik Nayak]

This is part of unification of the commands 'git tag -l, git branch -l
and git for-each-ref'. This ports over branch.c to use ref-filter's
printing options.

Initially posted here: $(gmane/279226). It was decided that this series
would follow up after refactoring ref-filter parsing mechanism, which
is now merged into master (9606218b32344c5c756f7c29349d3845ef60b80c).

v1 can be found here: $(gmane/288342)
v2 can be found here: $(gmane/288863)
v3 can be found here: $(gmane/290299)
v4 can be found here: $(gmane/291106)
v5b can be found here: $(gmane/292467)

Changes in this version:

1. Rebased on top of f307218 (t6302: simplify non-gpg cases). This
patch ensures that we only use signed tags when GPG is installed and
effectively gets rid of the bug introduced by 01/17 (ref-filter:
implement %(if), %(then), and %(else) atoms)[1].

[1]: $(gmane/293901)

Karthik Nayak (17):
  ref-filter: implement %(if), %(then), and %(else) atoms
  ref-filter: include reference to 'used_atom' within 'atom_value'
  ref-filter: implement %(if:equals=<string>) and
    %(if:notequals=<string>)
  ref-filter: modify "%(objectname:short)" to take length
  ref-filter: move get_head_description() from branch.c
  ref-filter: introduce format_ref_array_item()
  ref-filter: make %(upstream:track) prints "[gone]" for invalid
    upstreams
  ref-filter: add support for %(upstream:track,nobracket)
  ref-filter: make "%(symref)" atom work with the ':short' modifier
  ref-filter: introduce refname_atom_parser_internal()
  ref-filter: introduce symref_atom_parser() and refname_atom_parser()
  ref-filter: make remote_ref_atom_parser() use
    refname_atom_parser_internal()
  ref-filter: add `:dir` and `:base` options for ref printing atoms
  ref-filter: allow porcelain to translate messages in the output
  branch, tag: use porcelain output
  branch: use ref-filter printing APIs
  branch: implement '--format' option

[PATCH v6 01/17] ref-filter: implement %(if), %(then), and %(else) atoms

[Karthik Nayak]

Implement %(if), %(then) and %(else) atoms. Used as
%(if)...%(then)...%(end) or %(if)...%(then)...%(else)...%(end). If the
format string between %(if) and %(then) expands to an empty string, or
to only whitespaces, then the whole %(if)...%(end) expands to the string
following %(then). Otherwise, it expands to the string following
%(else), if any. Nesting of this construct is possible.

This is in preparation for porting over `git branch -l` to use
ref-filter APIs for printing.

Add Documentation and tests regarding the same.

[PATCH v6 02/17] ref-filter: include reference to 'used_atom' within 'atom_value'

[Karthik Nayak]

Ensure that each 'atom_value' has a reference to its corresponding
'used_atom'. This let's us use values within 'used_atom' in the
'handler' function.

Hence we can get the %(align) atom's parameters directly from the
'used_atom' therefore removing the necessity of passing %(align) atom's
parameters to 'atom_value'.

This also acts as a preparatory patch for the upcoming patch where we
introduce %(if:equals=) and %(if:notequals=).

[PATCH v6 03/17] ref-filter: implement %(if:equals=<string>) and %(if:notequals=<string>)

[Karthik Nayak]

Implement %(if:equals=<string>) wherein the if condition is only
satisfied if the value obtained between the %(if:...) and %(then) atom
is the same as the given '<string>'.

Similarly, implement (if:notequals=<string>) wherein the if condition
is only satisfied if the value obtained between the %(if:...) and
%(then) atom is differnt from the given '<string>'.

This is done by introducing 'if_atom_parser()' which parses the given
%(if) atom and then stores the data in used_atom which is later passed
on to the used_atom of the %(then) atom, so that it can do the required
comparisons.

Add tests and Documentation for the same.

[PATCH v6 04/17] ref-filter: modify "%(objectname:short)" to take length

[Karthik Nayak]

Add support for %(objectname:short=<length>) which would print the
abbreviated unique objectname of given length. When no length is
specified, the length is 'DEFAULT_ABBREV'. The minimum length is
'MINIMUM_ABBREV'. The length may be exceeded to ensure that the provided
object name is unique.

Add tests and documentation for the same.

[PATCH v6 05/17] ref-filter: move get_head_description() from branch.c

[Karthik Nayak]

Move the implementation of get_head_description() from branch.c to
ref-filter.  This gives a description of the HEAD ref if called. This
is used as the refname for the HEAD ref whenever the
FILTER_REFS_DETACHED_HEAD option is used. Make it public because we
need it to calculate the length of the HEAD refs description in
branch.c:calc_maxwidth() when we port branch.c to use ref-filter
APIs.

[PATCH v6 06/17] ref-filter: introduce format_ref_array_item()

[Karthik Nayak]

To allow column display, we will need to first render the output in a
string list to allow print_columns() to compute the proper size of
each column before starting the actual output. Introduce the function
format_ref_array_item() that does the formatting of a ref_array_item
to an strbuf.

show_ref_array_item() is kept as a convenience wrapper around it which
obtains the strbuf and prints it the standard output.

[PATCH v6 07/17] ref-filter: make %(upstream:track) prints "[gone]" for invalid upstreams

[Karthik Nayak]

Borrowing from branch.c's implementation print "[gone]" whenever an
unknown upstream ref is encountered instead of just ignoring it.

This makes sure that when branch.c is ported over to using ref-filter
APIs for printing, this feature is not lost.

Make changes to t/t6300-for-each-ref.sh and
Documentation/git-for-each-ref.txt to reflect this change.

[PATCH v6 09/17] ref-filter: make "%(symref)" atom work with the ':short' modifier

[Karthik Nayak]

The "%(symref)" atom doesn't work when used with the ':short' modifier
because we strictly match only 'symref' for setting the 'need_symref'
indicator. Fix this by using comparing with valid_atom rather than used_atom.

Add tests for %(symref) and %(symref:short) while we're here.

[PATCH v6 10/17] ref-filter: introduce refname_atom_parser_internal()

[Karthik Nayak]

Since there are multiple atoms which print refs ('%(refname)',
'%(symref)', '%(push)', '%upstream'), it makes sense to have a common
ground for parsing them. This would allow us to share implementations of
the atom modifiers between these atoms.

Introduce refname_atom_parser_internal() to act as a common parsing
function for ref printing atoms. This would eventually be used to
introduce refname_atom_parser() and symref_atom_parser() and also be
internally used in remote_ref_atom_parser().

[PATCH v6 11/17] ref-filter: introduce symref_atom_parser() and refname_atom_parser()

[Karthik Nayak]

Using refname_atom_parser_internal(), introduce symref_atom_parser() and
refname_atom_parser() which will parse the atoms %(symref) and
%(refname) respectively. Store the parsed information into the
'used_atom' structure based on the modifiers used along with the atoms.

Now the '%(symref)' atom supports the ':strip' atom modifier. Update the
Documentation and tests to reflect this.

[PATCH v6 12/17] ref-filter: make remote_ref_atom_parser() use refname_atom_parser_internal()

[Karthik Nayak]

Use the recently introduced refname_atom_parser_internal() within
remote_ref_atom_parser(), this provides a common base for all the ref
printing atoms, allowing %(upstream) and %(push) to also use the
':strip' option.

The atoms '%(push)' and '%(upstream)' will retain the ':track' and
':trackshort' atom modifiers to themselves as they have no meaning in
context to the '%(refname)' and '%(symref)' atoms.

Update the documentation and tests to reflect the same.

[PATCH v6 13/17] ref-filter: add `:dir` and `:base` options for ref printing atoms

[Karthik Nayak]

Add the options `:dir` and `:base` to all ref printing ('%(refname)',
'%(symref)', '%(push)' and '%(upstream)') atoms. The `:dir` option gives
the directory (the part after $GIT_DIR/) of the ref without the
refname. The `:base` option gives the base directory of the given
ref (i.e. the directory following $GIT_DIR/refs/).

Add tests and documentation for the same.

[PATCH v6 14/17] ref-filter: allow porcelain to translate messages in the output

[Karthik Nayak]

Introduce setup_ref_filter_porcelain_msg() so that the messages used in
the atom %(upstream:track) can be translated if needed. This is needed
as we port branch.c to use ref-filter's printing API's.

[PATCH v6 15/17] branch, tag: use porcelain output

[Karthik Nayak]

Call ref-filter's setup_ref_filter_porcelain_msg() to enable
translated messages for the %(upstream:tack) atom. Although branch.c
doesn't currently use ref-filter's printing API's, this will ensure
that when it does in the future patches, we do not need to worry about
translation.

[PATCH v6 16/17] branch: use ref-filter printing APIs

[Karthik Nayak]

Port branch.c to use ref-filter APIs for printing. This clears out
most of the code used in branch.c for printing and replaces them with
calls made to the ref-filter library.

Introduce build_format() which gets the format required for printing
of refs. Make amendments to print_ref_list() to reflect these changes.

Change calc_maxwidth() to also account for the length of HEAD ref, by
calling ref-filter:get_head_discription().

Also change the test in t6040 to reflect the changes.

Before this patch, all cross-prefix symrefs weren't shortened. Since
we're using ref-filter APIs, we shorten all symrefs by default. We also
allow the user to change the format if needed with the introduction of
the '--format' option in the next patch.

[PATCH v6 17/17] branch: implement '--format' option

[Karthik Nayak]

Implement the '--format' option provided by 'ref-filter'. This lets the
user list branches as per desired format similar to the implementation
in 'git for-each-ref'.

Add tests and documentation for the same.

Hello, sorry for the confusion, it's built on top of 'next' which contains
f307218 (t6302: simplify non-gpg cases). The merge conflict is due to the
commit made by you 1cca17df (Documentation: fix linkgit references).

That is not "confusion", but an "incorrect piece of information".

The series does not seem to apply on 'next', either.

Where did you exactly rebase on top of?  It is not on f307218, it is
not on 'next', 'next@{1}',... 'next@{8}'.

f3072180 (t6302: simplify non-gpg cases, 2016-05-09) was merged to
'next' at 9fcb98b2 (Merge branch 'es/test-gpg-tags' into next,
2016-05-10), but the series does not seem to apply there, either.

Not that a series built on top of any 'next' is directly usable.
You are forcing me to identify which topics in 'next' you depend on,
and build a topic that does not contain anything unrelated that is
in 'next' before starting to apply these patches.  Can you pick a
more appropriate place to base these patches on, please?  Why isn't
this based on 'master', for example?

Hello,

Sorry for that.
The only reason I haven't based it on 'master' is because it doesn't contain
'f307218'.

  next
  ref-filter

Now speaking of which, this is based on next.

➔ git branch -v

Note that this expects that va/i18n-misc-updates topic, which
corrects the translator instruction around here, is already applied.

... but the change is apparently lost.

It is a good lesson not to blindly rebase things on 'next', which
would have unrelated changes.  If you needed es/test-gpg-tags topic
for the test script change, check out 'master', merge that single
topic, and then rebase the series on top of the result.

It is not clear from the above what your local ref-filter contains
beyond 'master', so it is not very useful to me when I am trying to
help you to avoid taking this topic hostage to all the topics in
'next' (if I queued this directly on 'next', I have to hold this
series until all the topics in 'next' graduates to 'master).

The series certainly would not apply to f307218 at all; it depends
on other stuff you have either in your local 'ref-filter' or 'next'.
It does not apply to the result of a merge of 'es/test-gpg-tags' topic 
into 'master', either, but the above does not make it clear what
else you are using from 'next' at all.

In any case, I think I managed to reduce the dependency on only
'es/test-gpg-tags' and 'master', and that is what I'll be queuing.
Please double check the patches in kn/ref-filter-branch-list topic
and also the merge of it into 'pu' for mismerges.

The difference between the result of merging the previously queued
one to 'pu', and the result of merging this round to 'pu', looks
like the attached.

Thanks.
