In cases when a submodule fetch fails when there are many submodules, the error from the lone failing submodule fetch is buried under activity on the other submodules if more than one fetch fell back on fetch-by-oid. Call out a failure late so the user is aware that something went wrong, and where. Signed-off-by: Emily Shaffer <emilyshaffer@xxxxxxxxxx> --- V1's approach was to show a generic error based on the output status of fetch_populated_submodules(); with a long set of submodules, this is only marginally better than showing the error inline. For v2, instead we're gathering a list of submodules which failed during the parallel processing. The contents of stderr at the time fetch_finish() is called is not available to us; 'err' on the input is for providing output only. So, gather the submodule name only. - Emily submodule.c | 22 ++++++++++++++++++---- 1 file changed, 18 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/submodule.c b/submodule.c index 9da7181321..13bc9354bc 100644 --- a/submodule.c +++ b/submodule.c @@ -1280,10 +1280,13 @@ struct submodule_parallel_fetch { /* Pending fetches by OIDs */ struct fetch_task **oid_fetch_tasks; int oid_fetch_tasks_nr, oid_fetch_tasks_alloc; + + struct strbuf submodules_with_errors; + pthread_mutex_t submodule_errors_mutex; }; #define SPF_INIT {0, ARGV_ARRAY_INIT, NULL, NULL, 0, 0, 0, 0, \ STRING_LIST_INIT_DUP, \ - NULL, 0, 0} + NULL, 0, 0, STRBUF_INIT, PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER} static int get_fetch_recurse_config(const struct submodule *submodule, struct submodule_parallel_fetch *spf) @@ -1547,7 +1550,10 @@ static int fetch_finish(int retvalue, struct strbuf *err, struct string_list_item *it; struct oid_array *commits; - if (retvalue) + if (!task || !task->sub) + BUG("callback cookie bogus"); + + if (retvalue) { /* * NEEDSWORK: This indicates that the overall fetch * failed, even though there may be a subsequent fetch @@ -1557,8 +1563,11 @@ static int fetch_finish(int retvalue, struct strbuf *err, */ spf->result = 1; - if (!task || !task->sub) - BUG("callback cookie bogus"); + pthread_mutex_lock(&spf->submodule_errors_mutex); + strbuf_addf(&spf->submodules_with_errors, "\t%s\n", + task->sub->name); + pthread_mutex_unlock(&spf->submodule_errors_mutex); + } /* Is this the second time we process this submodule? */ if (task->commits) @@ -1627,6 +1636,11 @@ int fetch_populated_submodules(struct repository *r, &spf, "submodule", "parallel/fetch"); + if (spf.submodules_with_errors.len > 0) + fprintf(stderr, "Errors during submodule fetch:\n%s", + spf.submodules_with_errors.buf); + + argv_array_clear(&spf.args); out: free_submodules_oids(&spf.changed_submodule_names); -- 2.25.0.rc1.283.g88dfdc4193-goog
