[PATCH v2 0/2] Teach 'git grep' about --open-files-in-pager=[<pager>]

[Jonathan Nieder]

This series teaches ‘git grep’ to accept

	git grep -Ovi some_function_name

to find all the call sites for some_function_name so they can be
adjusted.  Dscho’s cover letter[1] explains it better.

And in fact, Dscho did all the work here; this iteration just rebases it
on master and adds some tests.

Happy hacking,
Jonathan

[PATCH 1/2] grep: Add the option '--open-files-in-pager'

[Jonathan Nieder]

From: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>

This adds an option to open the matching files in the pager, and if the
pager happens to be "less" (or "vi") and there is only one grep pattern,
it also jumps to the first match right away.

The short option was chose as '-O' to avoid clashes with GNU grep's
options (as suggested by Junio).

So, 'git grep -O abc' is a short form for 'less +/abc $(grep -l abc)'
except that it works also with spaces in file names, and it does not
start the pager if there was no matching file.

[jn: rebased and added tests; with error handling fix from Junio
squashed in]

[PATCH 2/2] grep -O: allow optional argument specifying the pager (or editor)

[Jonathan Nieder]

From: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>

Suppose you want to edit all files that contain a specific search term.
Of course, you can do something totally trivial such as

	git grep -z -e <term> | xargs -0r vi +/<term>

but maybe you are happy that the same will be achieved by

	git grep -Ovi <term>

now.

[jn: rebased and added tests]

Things I didn’t think hard about:

 - the exit status
 - the special-casing of "less" and "vi"

Maybe the latter could be improved by also accepting "more" and
"vim", which both will accept the +/<term> option.

Thanks for reading.

Ugh.  We need a static analyzer for shell scripts. :)  Short of that,
here’s a fixup to squash in.

Sorry for the trouble.

Last time I tried, it also needed the patch "Unify code paths of threaded 
greps". Don't know if that one made it in already.

Thanks for the pointer, but I can’t seem to find any such patch.  Maybe
it was squashed into Fredrik’s patch (5b594f4)?

Nope, the patch is still there, even after a rebase.

In any case, the stuff is available in 4msysgit.git, and working (I was 
sick and tired of maintaining two different forks, and it was costing me 
too much time and work anyway, so I made 4msysgit.git's devel my main 
branch).

Just a nit, why not just "--open-files-in"?  It is not necessarily a 
pager, as you cover letter shows.  Of course the shorter version works, 
but I'm asking because I would like to add this option to GNU grep and I 
would definitely prefer to avoid the "pager" reference.

I assume it was to convey the default.  The effect of
"git grep -e foo --open-files-in-pager" is more obvious than
"git grep -e foo --open-files-in".

But I do see your point.  I have no preferences about what the long
option is named.  Care to prepare a follow-up patch?

That would be nice indeed.

Ah, I see.  Looks like a good patch (d00d655, Unify code paths of threaded
greps, 2010-02-07) though in principle a separate topic, since grep -O
already sets use_threads = 0.  I think it is good to base grep-O on it
because it allows cleaner code.

Here’s a rebased version.

[PATCH 1/4] grep: refactor grep_objects loop into its own function

[Jonathan Nieder]

Simplify cmd_grep by splitting off the loop that finds matches in a
list of trees.  So now the main part of cmd_grep looks like:

	if (!use_index) {
		int hit = grep_directory(&opt, paths);
		if (use_threads)
			hit |= wait_all();
		return !hit;
	}
	if (!list.nr) {
		if (!cached)
			setup_work_tree();
		int hit = grep_cache(&opt, paths, cached);
		if (use_threads)
			hit |= wait_all;
		return !hit;
	}
	hit = grep_objects(&opt, path, &list);
	if (use_threads)
		hit |= wait_all();
	return !hit;

and is ripe for further refactoring.

[PATCH 2/4] Unify code paths of threaded greps

[Jonathan Nieder]

From: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>

There were three awfully similar code paths ending the threaded grep. It
is better to avoid duplicated code, though.

This change might very well prevent a race, where the grep patterns were
free()d before waiting that all threads finished.

[PATCH 3/4] grep: Add the option '--open-files-in-pager'

[Jonathan Nieder]

From: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>

This adds an option to open the matching files in the pager, and if the
pager happens to be "less" (or "vi") and there is only one grep pattern,
it also jumps to the first match right away.

The short option was chose as '-O' to avoid clashes with GNU grep's
options (as suggested by Junio).

So, 'git grep -O abc' is a short form for 'less +/abc $(grep -l abc)'
except that it works also with spaces in file names, and it does not
start the pager if there was no matching file.

[jn: rebased and added tests; with error handling fix from Junio
squashed in]

Changes from previous version:

 - fix leaked argv
 - die on chdir failure
 - chmod +x t/t7811-grep-open.sh

There was some discussion about changing the option’s name, but it
might be better to instead split it into two options, along these
lines:

  -O | --view-files
  --viewer=

I have left it as is for now.

[PATCH 4/4] grep -O: allow optional argument specifying the pager (or editor)

[Jonathan Nieder]

From: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>

Suppose you want to edit all files that contain a specific search term.
Of course, you can do something totally trivial such as

	git grep -z -e <term> | xargs -0r vi +/<term>

but maybe you are happy that the same will be achieved by

	git grep -Ovi <term>

now.

[jn: rebased and added tests]

Ah, I had missed that the argument was optional.  I think that optional 
arguments are slightly frowned upon for POSIX utilities, because they're 
a bit different.  In fact, I think the only one is -i in sed (and BSD 
sed instead makes it mandatory...).  Personally I have no problem with 
making -O in GNU grep optional too, I'll see what the other maintainers say.

No. It applies without the patch. But in my tests, it just does not work 
on multi-core machines without the patch.

Did you try the v2 series I sent earlier?  I tested it on a machine
with two multi-core CPUs.

Now that I’ve read your patch, though, I don’t want to go back.  The
code duplication in the v2 series was ugly and did not leave the door
open to easily adding threading support later, because it ran the
pager _before_ waiting for pending threads.  And besides, the "Unify
code paths" patch contains an important fix for grep without -O.

Thanks for both patches.

Hmm, does "git grep -e Heh -O frotz" look for Heh and show in the frotz
pager, or does it look for Heh in paths under frotz/ directory and show
hits in the default pager?

If there were another instance of constant string "dummy" elsewhere in the
program, is a clever compiler-linker combo allowed to optimize memory use
by allocating one instance of such a string and pointing default_pager
pointer to it?  IOW, if the patch were:

> +	const char *show_in_pager = NULL, *default_pager = "dummy";
> +	const char *another_dummy = "dummy";

could another_dummy and default_pager start out with the same value?

This is just out of curiosity and does not affect correctness of the code,
but I am wondering...

The latter.

In the same file, the compiler will do it already today.  In another
file, no (except if it does link-time optimization of course).

As Paolo mentioned, it is the latter.  Patch for squashing
is below.

For a moment, you had me worried: would an (insane) compiler be
allowed to intern strings that appear as arguments, making argv[i]
actually compare equal to default_pager?

Luckily, the answer is no, because the strings pointed to in argv
are guaranteed to be modifiable (see: Execution environments → Hosted
environment → Program startup).

Subject: grep -O: do not advertize non-"sticked" form in documentation

To avoid ambiguity in option parsing, the -O option will
only take an argument if it is stuck to the option like
-Ovi or --open-files-in-pager=vim.  The un-sticked form
-O vi means to search paths under 'vi' and show hits in
the default pager.
