[PATCH] prune: quiet ENOENT on missing directories

[PATCH] prune: quiet ENOENT on missing directories

[Eric Wong]

$GIT_DIR/objects/pack may be removed to save inodes in shared
repositories.  Quiet down prune in cases where either
$GIT_DIR/objects or $GIT_DIR/objects/pack is non-existent,
but emit the system error in other cases to help users diagnose
permissions problems or resource constraints.

Wouldn't setup.c::is_git_directory() say "nope, you do not have a
repository there" if you are missing $GIT_DIR/objects?  So I suspect
that the only case this matters in practice is a missing pack/
subdirectory.

I agree that silently ignoring missing objects/pack/ is perfectly
fine, whether we auto-vivify it when we actually create a pack.

OK.

This is called twice, with $GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY and its pack
subdirectory, as it does not recurse.  

This is a tangent, I have to wonder how effective the first call
would be, though.  When writing a loose object file, we compute its
object name first in-core and determine the final filename, create a
temporary file in the same directory as the final file, write into
it and then finally rename the temporary to the final name.  The
fan-out $GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY/??/ directories may have temporary
files left when such a process crashed, but do we create cruft "git
prune" should remove in $GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY/ itself?

Right.  Removing $GIT_DIR/objects isn't currently OK, but maybe
someday it could be...  Supporting missing pack/ is the primary
reason for this change, but making a small step towards allowing
objects/-free $GIT_DIR doesn't seem harmful.

Good question, perhaps this could be a followup:

OTOH, perhaps there's some 3rd-party tools (e.g. backup tools)
that leave stuff in top-level objects/ and we'd risk breaking
a rare setup via ENOSPC.

I actually was hinting at making the remove_temporary_files()
recurse, so that you do not need the separate invocation in pack/
subdirectory.

Or make 256 calls for each of the fan-out subdirectory, in which
case the ENOENT silencing you did would really matter and shine.

But of course, neither is any part of this topic.  They are possible
follow-on works.

Thanks and sorry for making a confusing statement that could be
mistaken as "let's do this too", which wasn't what I meant.

Oh, no worries.  I already wrote this earlier and got distracted
with something else while waiting for tests :x.  Anyways, the
below supercedes my original patch and I think it's better in
every way.

I am unsure about duplicating ishex() from name-rev.c, however...

Subject: [PATCH] prune: recursively prune objects directory

$GIT_DIR/objects/pack may be removed to save inodes in shared
repositories, so avoid scanning it if it does not exist.  Loose
object directories ($GIT_DIR/objects/??) may have old temporary
files, so we now prune those, too.

Recursion is limited to a single level since git doesn't use
deeper levels.  This avoids the risk of stack overflows via
infinite recursion when pruning untrusted repos.

We'll also emit the system error in case a directory cannot be
opened to help users diagnose permissions problems or resource
constraints.

Yeah, I wonder why name-rev.c does not use isxdigit() in the first
place.

OK, the intent is to be careful and deal only with the fan-out
directories objects/[0-9a-f]{2}/ and objects/pack/ and leave crufts
in objects/info and any other unknown subdirectories, which makes
sense.

Two nits are:

 - "packs" wants to be "pack".
 - "strcmp() == 0" wants to be "!strcmp()".

Other than that, looks like a good idea.

isxdigit includes uppercase [A-F].  I think being strict is
better, here.  I don't want to open up a can of worms if we
become tolerant of 3rd-party git implementations developed on
case-insensitive FSes.

OK, fixed.  Along with existing test cases, since packs handling
wasn't being tested properly.

Guess not, removed in v2 below.

'prune stale packs' was actually insufficient for catching
the extraneous `s' in `pack'.  I've kept existing checks against
objects/tmp_*, but added extra checks for objects/pack/tmp_*

v2 fixes:
* `pack' directory fixed, tests added
* !strcmp
* remove needless cleanup step in test

Subject: [PATCH] prune: recursively prune objects directory

$GIT_DIR/objects/pack may be removed to save inodes in shared
repositories, so avoid scanning it if it does not exist.  Loose
object directories ($GIT_DIR/objects/??) may have old temporary
files, so we now prune those, too.

Recursion is limited to a single level since git doesn't use
deeper levels.  This avoids the risk of stack overflows via
infinite recursion when pruning untrusted repos.

We'll also emit the system error in case a directory cannot be
opened to help users diagnose permissions problems or resource
constraints.

OK, we do not recurse into .git/objects/AA/ for the same reason why
we do not recurse into .git/objects/info/.  We do expect [0-9a-f]{2}
and pack to be directories, so we go silent if they are missing, but
we do complain if somebody creates a regular file .git/objects/aa
for fun.

I agree that isxdigit() is not a good match.  I also agree with what
you said about it belong to git-compat-util.h but let's leave it for
a future clean-up patch to remove both copies of ishex(), introduce
islxdigit() in git-compat-util.h and use it as its replacement.

We sometimes use fprintf() instead of "error" or "warning" for output
compatibility with an older version, or because it's written in an old
style.

But as you're changing the anyway let's not re-invent error_errno() or
warning_errno(), but just use those.

We could also s/^Unable/unable/ in the message while at it, per
CodingGuidelines.

This seems like a good isolated change, but FWIW I think what we really
should be doing here is using the "report_garbage" facility added in
543c5caa6c9 (count-objects: report garbage files in pack directory too,
2013-02-15) and 478f34d2b6e (gc: remove garbage .idx files from pack
dir, 2015-11-03) for "pack".

I.e. we have already iterated over "pack" and found all the files
therein, and in packfile.c error_errno() etc. That we're
re-opendir()-ing the "pack", walking it again etc. doesn't make much
sense, or does it?

Then the:

	remove_temporary_files(get_object_directory());

Also seems odd, just a few lines above we passed "prune_cruft" to
"for_each_loose_file_in_objdir()", haven't we already walked the loose
object dir & removed temporary cruft there?
