TODO: tests! do_change_note_fanout() recursively traverses a "struct tree_entry" data structure. Before recursively traversing into a subtree, we make sure to call load_tree() on that subtree. However, for the initial/root struct tree_entry object, we assumed that load_tree() had already been invoked by our caller. This is true, except in the following case: If we load a previously written notes tree using 'filemodify' instead of 'from' [1], then we do not pass the notes ref to load_branch() (which takes care of calling load_tree() on the root tree_entry). When load_tree(root) has not been called before the first 'notemodify' command is parsed, the for loop in do_change_note_fanout() does nothing, and we end up not counting the existing notes, which ends up producing a notes tree with mixed/insufficient fanout. Fix this by always making sure to call load_tree() at the start of do_change_note_fanout(). Since load_tree() is now called before the for loop, we no longer need to call load_tree() on a subtree before recursing into it, the recursive call will take care of its own load_tree(). [1]: Usually, when adding notes to an existing notes tree, one would use a 'from' command like this: from refs/notes/foo^0 However, if one does not want to retain notes history (i.e. one wants the current refs/notes/foo commit to be build without any parents), then one can replace the 'from' command with the following 'filemodify' "hack" to pre-load the existing notes tree without using it as a parent: M 040000 refs/notes/foo^{tree} \n Discovered-by: Mike Hommey <mh@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Johan Herland <johan@xxxxxxxxxxx> --- fast-import.c | 5 +++-- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/fast-import.c b/fast-import.c index 04dfd50..aa7b64e 100644 --- a/fast-import.c +++ b/fast-import.c @@ -2159,6 +2159,9 @@ static uintmax_t do_change_note_fanout( unsigned char sha1[20]; char realpath[60]; + if (!root->tree) + load_tree(root); + for (i = 0; root->tree && i < root->tree->entry_count; i++) { e = root->tree->entries[i]; tmp_hex_sha1_len = hex_sha1_len + e->name->str_len; @@ -2210,8 +2213,6 @@ static uintmax_t do_change_note_fanout( leaf.tree); } else if (S_ISDIR(e->versions[1].mode)) { /* This is a subdir that may contain note entries */ - if (!e->tree) - load_tree(e); num_notes += do_change_note_fanout(orig_root, e, hex_sha1, tmp_hex_sha1_len, fullpath, tmp_fullpath_len, fanout); -- 2.1.1.392.g062cc5d -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
