[PATCH] fast-import: checkpoint: dump branches/tags/marks even if object_count==0

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The checkpoint command cycles packfiles if object_count != 0, a sensible
test or there would be no pack files to write. Since 820b931012, the
command also dumps branches, tags and marks, but still conditionally.
However, it is possible for a command stream to modify refs or create
marks without creating any new objects.

For example, reset a branch (and keep fast-import running):

	$ git fast-import
	reset refs/heads/master
	from refs/heads/master^

	checkpoint

but refs/heads/master remains unchanged.

Other example: a commit command that re-creates an object that already
exists in the object database.

The man page also states that checkpoint "updates the refs" and that
"placing a progress command immediately after a checkpoint will inform
the reader when the checkpoint has been completed and it can safely
access the refs that fast-import updated". This wasn't always true
without this patch.

This fix unconditionally calls dump_{branches,tags,marks}() for all
checkpoint commands. dump_branches() and dump_tags() are cheap to call
in the case of a no-op.

Add tests to t9300 that observe the (non-packfiles) effects of
checkpoint.

Junio, this last version addresses your last remark regarding the
potential for the cat $input_file sequence to block when the FIFOs are
unbuffered.

The concern is mainly theoretical (*if* the shell function is used
correctly): fast-import will not start writing to its own output until
it has fully consumed its input (as the only command generating output
should be the last one). Nevertheless, in this version the write is done
in the background.

Thanks!
