[PATCH v2 0/5] pretty format %(trailers): improve machine readability

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

 



Per Anders's feedback in [1] this is now a stand-alone series based on
"master". The merge conflict with his series is trivial, both add or
change struct member(s) in trailer.h.

v2 changes:

 * Either incorporate all the feedback from Christian Couder on v1, or
   changed things around to e.g. eliminate the relevant code.

 * Drop the whole "have_options" approach. I saw it conflicted with
   Hariom Verma's cleanup of ref-filter.c in a bad way. I also wasn't
   running the for-each-ref tests in v1 (just interpret-trailers &
   log/pretty). Ran every commit in v2 with the whole test suite (as I
   should have done to begin with, sorry).

 * I'd accidentally left DEVOPTS=no-error on in v1 and didn't notice a
   missing struct member warning. Oops.

 * Lots of my own commit message rewording/cleanup/grammar fixes.

         Fix %(trailers:valueonly) being a noop due to on overly eager
    -    optimization. When new trailer options were added they needed to be
    -    listed at the start of the format_trailer_info() function. E.g. as was
    -    done in 250bea0c165 (pretty: allow showing specific trailers,
    -    2019-01-28).
    +    optimization in format_trailer_info() which skips custom formatting if
    +    no custom options are given.
     
    -    When d9b936db522 (pretty: add support for "valueonly" option in
    -    %(trailers), 2019-01-28) was added this was omitted by mistake. Thus
    -    %(trailers:valueonly) was a noop, instead of showing only trailer
    -    value. This wasn't caught because the tests for it always combined it
    -    with other options.
    +    When "valueonly" was added in d9b936db522 (pretty: add support for
    +    "valueonly" option in %(trailers), 2019-01-28) we forgot to add it to
    +    the list of options that optimization checks for. See e.g. the
    +    addition of "key" in 250bea0c165 (pretty: allow showing specific
    +    trailers, 2019-01-28) for a similar change where this wasn't missed.
     
    -    Let's fix the bug, and switch away from this pattern requiring us to
    -    remember to add new flags to the start of the function. Instead as
    -    soon as we see the ":" in "%(trailers:" we skip the fast path. That
    -    over-matches for "%(trailers:)", but I think that's OK.
    +    Thus the "valueonly" option in "%(trailers:valueonly)" was a noop and
    +    the output was equivalent to that of a plain "%(trailers)". This
    +    wasn't caught because the tests for it always combined it with other
    +    options.

    +    Fix the bug by adding !opts->value_only to the list. I initially
    +    attempted to make this more future-proof by setting a flag if we got
    +    to ":" in "%(trailers:" in format_commit_one() in pretty.c. However,

    -    As noted in a previous commit which added "keyonly" it's needlessly
    -    hard to use the "log" machinery to produce machine-readable output for
    -    %(trailers). with the combination of the existing "separator" and this
    -    new "key_value_separator" this becomes trivial, as seen by the test
    -    being added here.
    +    Add a "key_value_separator" option to the "%(trailers)" pretty format,
    +    to go along with the existing "separator" argument. In combination
    +    these two options make it trivial to produce machine-readable (e.g. \0
    +    and \0\0-delimited) format output.
    +
    +    As elaborated on in a previous commit which added "keyonly" it was
    +    needlessly tedious to extract structured data from "%(trailers)"
    +    before the addition of this "key_value_separator" option. As seen by
