[PATCH v4 00/11] Bundle URIs III: Parse and download from bundle lists

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

 



This is the third series building the bundle URI feature. It is built on top
of ds/bundle-uri-clone, which introduced 'git clone --bundle-uri=' where is
a URI to a bundle file. This series adds the capability of downloading and
parsing a bundle list and then downloading the URIs in that list.

The core functionality of bundle lists is implemented by creating data
structures from a list of key-value pairs. These pairs can come from a
plain-text file in Git config format, but in the future, we will support the
list being supplied by packet lines over Git's protocol v2 in the
'bundle-uri' command (reserved for the next series).

The patches are organized in this way (updated for v4):

 1. Patch 1 is a cleanup from the previous part. This allows us to simplify
    our bundle list data structure slightly.

 2. Patches 2-3 create the bundle list data structures and the logic for
    populating the list from key-value pairs.

 3. Patches 4-5 teach Git to parse "key=value" lines to construct a bundle
    list. Add unit tests that ensure this logic constructs lists correctly.
    These patches are adapted from Ævar's RFC [1] and were previously seen
    in my combined RFC [2].

 4. Patch 6 teaches Git to parse Git config files into bundle lists.

 5. Patches 7-9 implement the ability to download a bundle list and
    recursively download the contained bundles (and possibly the bundle
    lists within). This is limited by a constant depth to avoid issues with
    cycles or otherwise incorrectly configured bundle lists. We also need to
    be careful when verifying the bundles due to ref caches, so some flags
    are added to unbundle() and verify_bundle().

 6. Patches 10-11 suppress unhelpful warnings from user visibility.

At the end of this series, users can bootstrap clones using 'git clone
--bundle-uri= ' where points to a bundle list instead of a single bundle
file.

As outlined in the design document [1], the next steps after this are:

 1. Implement the protocol v2 verb, re-using the bundle list logic from (2).
    Use this to auto-discover bundle URIs during 'git clone' (behind a
    config option). [2]
 2. Implement the 'creationToken' heuristic, allowing incremental 'git
    fetch' commands to download a bundle list from a configured URI, and
    only download bundles that are new based on the creation token values.

I have prepared some of this work as pull requests on my personal fork so
curious readers can look ahead to where we are going:

Updates in v4
=============

 * Properly updated the patch outline.

 * Jonathan Tan asked for more tests, and this revealed some interesting
   behaviors which I have now either fixed or made explicit:
   
   1. In "all" mode, we try to download and apply all bundles. Do not fail
      if a single bundle download fails.
   2. Previously, not all bundles were being applied, and this was noticed
      by the added checks for the refs/bundles/* refs at the end of the
      tests. This revealed the need for removing the reachability walk from
      verify_bundle() since the written refs/bundles/* refs were not being
      picked up by the loose ref cache. Since removing the reachability walk
      seemed like the faster (for users) option, I went that direction.
   3. While running those tests and examining the output carefully, I
      noticed several error messages related to missing prerequisites due to
      attempting unbundling in a random order. This doesn't appear in the
      later creationToken version, so I hadn't noticed it at the tip of my
      local work. These messages are removed with a new quiet mode for
      verify_bundle().


Updates in v3
=============

 * Fixed a comment about a return value of -1.
 * Fixed and tested scenario where early URIs fail in "any" mode and Git
   should try the rest of the list.
 * Instead of using 'success_count' and 'failure_count', use the iterator
   return value to terminate the "all" mode loop early.


Updates in v2
=============

Thank you to all of the voices who chimed in on the previous version. I'm
sorry it took so long for me to get a new version.

 * I've done a rather thorough overhaul to minimize how often later patches
   rewrite portions of earlier patches.

 * We no longer use a strbuf in struct remote_bundle_info. Instead, use a
   'char *' and only in the patch where it is first used.

 * The config documentation is more clearly indicating that the bundle.*
   section has no effect in the repository config (at the moment, which will
   change in the next series).

 * The bundle.version value is now parsed using git_parse_int().

 * The config key is now parsed using parse_config_key().

 * Commit messages clarify more about the context of the change in the
   bigger picture of the bundle URI effort.

 * Some printf()s are correctly changed to fprintf()s.

 * The test helper CLI is unified across the two modes. They both take a
   filename now.

 * The count of downloaded bundles is now only updated after a successful
   download, allowing the "any" mode to keep trying after a failure.

Thanks,

 * Stolee
