Memoizing these initialization functions saves some memory for

This memoization appears unneeded as the check_cherry_pick2 cache is
in front of it does enough.
With this change applied, importing from local svn+ssh and http copies
of the R repo[1] takes only 2:00 (2 hours) on my system and the git-svn
process never uses more than 60MB RSS on my x86-64 GNU/Linux system[2].
This 60M measurement is only for the git-svn Perl process itself and
does not include memory used by git subprocesses accessing large packs
(subprocess memory usage _is_ measured by my time(1) tool).
Before this change, an import took longer (2:20) on svn+ssh:// but
git-svn used around 240MB during the imports. Worse yet, git-svn
ballooned to over 400M when writing out the cache to the filesystem.
I also tried removing memoization for `has_no_changes', too, but a
local copy of the R repository(*) was not close to finishing within
10 hours on my system.

This override was probably never necessary, but most likely a no-op

Signed-off-by: Eric Wong <normalperson@yhbt.net>
Despite attempting to use local memory pools everywhere we can,
(including our call to SVN::Ra::do_update and all subsequent reporter
calls), there does not appear to be a way to force the Git::SVN::Fetcher
callbacks to use a pool other than the per-SVN::Ra pool.
Git::SVN::Fetcher ends up using the main RA pool which grows
monotonically in size for the lifetime of the RA object.
Thus the only way to free that memory appears to be to destroy and
recreate the RA connection for at every --log-window-size interval.
This reduces memory usage over the course of fetching 10K revisions
using a test repository created with the script at the end of this
commit message.
As reported by time(1) on my x86-64 system:
before: 54024k
after: 28680k
Unfortunately, there remains some yet-to-be-tracked-down slow memory
growth which would be evident as the `nr' parameter increases in
the repository generation script:

set -e
tmp=$(mktemp -d svntestrepo-XXXXXXXX)
svnadmin create "$tmp"

In a Subversion repository where many feature branches are merged into a
trunk, the svn:mergeinfo property can grow very large. This severely
slows down git-svn's make_log_entry() because it is checking all
mergeinfo entries every time the property changes.
In most cases, the additions to svn:mergeinfo since the last commit are
pretty small, and there is nothing to gain by checking merges that were
already checked for the last commit in the branch.
Add a mergeinfo_changes() function which computes the set of interesting
changes to svn:mergeinfo since the last commit. Filter out merged
branches whose ranges haven't changed, and remove a common prefix of
ranges from other merged branches.
This speeds up "git svn fetch" by several orders of magnitude on a large
repository where thousands of feature branches have been merged.

Since the very beginning of Git, we gave the LESS environment a
default value "FRSX" when we spawn "less" as the pager. "S" (chop
long lines instead of wrapping) has been removed from this default
set of options, because it is more or less a personal taste thing,
as opposed to others that have good justifications (i.e. "R" is very
much justified because many kinds of output we produce are colored
and "FX" is justified because output we produce is often shorter
than a page).
Existing users who prefer not to see line-wrapped output may want to
set
$ git config core.pager "less -S"
to restore the traditional behaviour. It is expected that people
find output from the most subcommands easier to read with the new
default, except for "blame" which tends to produce really long
lines. To override the new default only for "git blame", you can do
this:
$ git config pager.blame "less -S"
* mm/pager-less-sans-S:
pager: remove 'S' from $LESS by default
By default, Git used to set $LESS to -FRSX if $LESS was not set by
the user. The FRX flags actually make sense for Git (F and X because
sometimes the output Git pipes to less is short, and R because Git
pipes colored output). The S flag (chop long lines), on the other
hand, is not related to Git and is a matter of user preference. Git
should not decide for the user to change LESS's default.
More specifically, the S flag harms users who review untrusted code
within a pager, since a patch looking like:
-old code;
+new good code; [... lots of tabs ...] malicious code;
would appear identical to:
-old code;
+new good code;
Users who prefer the old behavior can still set the $LESS environment
variable to -FRSX explicitly, or set core.pager to 'less -S'.
The documentation in config.txt is made a bit longer to keep both an
example setting the 'S' flag (needed to recover the old behavior)
and an example showing how to unset a flag set by Git.

Just like we give a reasonable default for "less" via the LESS
environment variable, specify a reasonable default for "lv" via the
"LV" environment variable when spawning the pager.
* jn/pager-lv-default-env:
pager: set LV=-c alongside LESS=FRSX
On systems with lv configured as the preferred pager (i.e.,
DEFAULT_PAGER=lv at build time, or PAGER=lv exported in the
environment) git commands that use color show control codes instead of
color in the pager:
$ git diff
^[[1mdiff --git a/.mailfilter b/.mailfilter^[[m

^[[1m--- a/.mailfilter^[[m
^[[1m+++ b/.mailfilter^[[m
^[[36m@@ -1,11 +1,58 @@^[[m
"less" avoids this problem because git uses the LESS environment
variable to pass the -R option ('output ANSI color escapes in raw
form') by default. Use the LV environment variable to pass 'lv' the
-c option ('allow ANSI escape sequences for text decoration / color')
to fix it for lv, too.
Noticed when the default value for color.ui flipped to 'auto' in

Subversion serf backend in versions 1.8.5 and below has a bug(*) that the
function creating the descriptor of a file change -- add_file() --
doesn't make a copy of its third argument when storing it on the
returned descriptor. As a result, by the time this field is used (in
transactions of file copying or renaming) it may well be released, and
the memory reused.
One of its possible manifestations is the svn assertion triggering on an
invalid path, with a message
svn_fspath__skip_ancestor: Assertion
`svn_fspath__is_canonical(child_fspath)' failed.
This patch works around this bug, by storing the value to be passed as

1.3.1 still exhibits the problem; a fix for the bug exists (see

Until the bug is fixed, work around the issue within the git perl

1. open_root

When using the ra_serf access method, git-svn can end up needing

one that would otherwise have been used is currently locked.

Subversion 1.7 and newer implement HTTPv2, an extension that should make HTTP
more efficient. Servers with support for this protocol will make the subversion
client library take an alternative code path that checks (with assertions)
whether the URL is "canonical" or not.
This patch fixes an issue I encountered while trying to `git svn dcommit` a
rename action for a file containing a single quote character ("User's Manual"
to "UserMan.tex"). It does not happen for older subversion 1.6 servers nor
non-HTTP(S) protocols such as the native svn protocol, only on an Apache server
shipping SVN 1.7. Trying to `git svn dcommit` under the aforementioned
conditions yields the following error which aborts the commit process:
Committing to http://example.com/svn ...
perl: subversion/libsvn_subr/dirent_uri.c:1520: uri_skip_ancestor:
Assertion `svn_uri_is_canonical(child_uri, ((void *)0))' failed.
error: git-svn died of signal 6
An analysis of the subversion source for the cause:
- The assertion originates from uri_skip_ancestor which calls
svn_uri_is_canonical, which fails when the URL contains percent-encoded values
that do not necessarily have to be encoded (not "canonical" enough). This is
done by a table lookup in libsvn_subr/path.c. Putting some debugging prints
revealed that the character ' is indeed encoded to %27 which is not
considered canonical.
- url_skip_ancestor is called by svn_ra_neon__get_baseline_info with the root
repository URL and path as parameters;
- which is called by copy_resource (libsvn_ra_neon/commit.c) for a copy action
(or in my case, renaming which is actually copy + delete old);
- which is called by commit_add_dir;
- which is assigned as a structure method "add_file" in
svn_ra_neon__get_commit_editor.
In the whole path, the path argument is not modified.
Through some more uninteresting wrapper functions, the Perl bindings gives you
access to the add_file method which will pass the path argument without
modifications to svn.
git-svn calls the "R"(ename) subroutine in Git::SVN::Editor which contains:
326 my $fbat = $self->add_file($self->repo_path($m->{file_b}), $pbat,
327 $self->url_path($m->{file_a}), $self->{r});
"repo_path" basically returns the path as-is, unless the "svn.pathnameencoding"
configuration property is set. "url_path" tries to escape some special
characters, but does not take all special characters into account, thereby
causing the path to contain some escaped characters which do not have to be
escaped.
The list of characters not to be escaped are taken from the
subversion/libsvn_subr/path.c file to fully account for all characters. Tested
with a filename containing all characters in the range 0x20 to 0x78 (inclusive).

it's nicer to be consistent.

Subversion represents symlinks as ordinary files with content starting
with "link " and the svn:special property set to "*". Thus a file can
switch between being a symlink and a non-symlink simply by toggling
its svn:special property, and new checkouts will automatically write a
file of the appropriate type. Likewise, in subversion 1.6 and older,
running "svn update" would notice changes in filetype and update the
working copy appropriately.
Starting in subversion 1.7 (issue 4091), changes to the svn:special
property trip an assertion instead:
$ svn up svn-tree
Updating 'svn-tree':
svn: E235000: In file 'subversion/libsvn_wc/update_editor.c' \
line 1583: assertion failed (action == svn_wc_conflict_action_edit \
|| action == svn_wc_conflict_action_delete || action == \
svn_wc_conflict_action_replace)
Revisions prepared with ordinary svn commands ("svn add" and not "svn
propset") don't trip this because they represent these filetype
changes using a replace operation, which is approximately equivalent
to removal followed by adding a new file and works fine. Follow suit.
Noticed using t9100. After this change, git-svn's file-to-symlink
changes are sent in a format that modern "svn update" can handle and

Subversion's svn_dirent_canonicalize() and svn_path_canonicalize()
APIs keep a leading slash in the return value if one was present on
the argument, which can be useful since it allows relative and
absolute paths to be distinguished.
When git-svn's canonicalize_path() learned to use these functions if
available, its semantics changed in the corresponding way. Some new
callers rely on the leading slash --- for example, if the slash is
stripped out then _canonicalize_url_ourselves() will transform
"proto://host/path/to/resource" to "proto://hostpath/to/resource".
Unfortunately the fallback _canonicalize_path_ourselves(), used when
the appropriate SVN APIs are not usable, still follows the old
semantics, so if that code path is exercised then it breaks. Fix it
to follow the new convention.

When using the {word,[...]} style of configuration for tags and branches,
it appears the intent is to only match whole path parts, since the words
in the {} pattern are meta-character quoted.
When the pattern word appears in the beginning or middle of the url,
it's matched completely, since the left side, pattern, and (non-empty)
right side are joined together with path separators.
However, when the pattern word appears at the end of the URL, the
right side is an empty pattern, and the resulting regex matches
more than just the specified pattern.
For example, if you specify something along the lines of
branches = branches/project/{release_1,release_2}
and your repository also contains "branches/project/release_1_2", you
will also get the release_1_2 branch. By restricting the match regex

git-svn: path canonicalization uses SVN API
Git::SVN::Utils: remove irrelevant comment
git-svn: add join_paths() to safely concatenate paths
git-svn: factor out _collapse_dotdot function
git-svn: use SVN 1.7 to canonicalize when possible
git-svn: move canonicalization to Git::SVN::Utils
use Git::SVN{,::RA}->url accessor globally
use Git::SVN->path accessor globally
Git::SVN::Ra: use accessor for URLs
Git::SVN: use accessor for URLs internally
Git::SVN: use accessors internally for path
Since v1.7.0-rc2~11 (git-svn: persistent memoization, 2010-01-30),
git-svn has maintained some private per-repository caches in
.git/svn/.caches to avoid refetching and recalculating some
mergeinfo-related information with every 'git svn fetch'.
This memoization can cause problems, e.g consider the following case:
SVN repo:
... - a - b - c - m <- trunk
\ /
d - e <- branch1
The Git import of the above repo is at commit 'a' and doesn't know about
the branch1. In case of an 'git svn rebase', only the trunk of the
SVN repo is imported. During the creation of the git commit 'm', git svn
uses the svn:mergeinfo property and tries to find the corresponding git
commit 'e' to create 'm' with 'c' and 'e' as parents. But git svn rebase
only imports the current branch so commit 'e' is not imported.
Therefore git svn fails to create commit 'm' as a merge commit, because one
of its parents is not known to git. The imported history looks like this:
... - a - b - c - m <- trunk
A later 'git svn fetch' to import all branches can't rewrite the commit 'm'
to add 'e' as a parent and to make it a real git merge commit, because it
was already imported.
That's why the imported history misses the merge and looks like this:
... - a - b - c - m <- trunk
\
d - e <- branch1
Right now the only known workaround for importing 'm' as a merge is to
force reimporting 'm' again from SVN, e.g. via
$ git svn reset --revision $(git find-rev $c)
$ git svn fetch
Sadly, this is where the behavior has regressed: git svn reset doesn't
invalidate the old mergeinfo cache, which is no longer valid for the
reimport, which leads to 'm' beeing imprted with only 'c' as parent.
As solution to this problem, this commit invalidates the mergeinfo cache
to force correct recalculation of the parents.
During development of this patch, several ways for invalidating the cache
where considered. One of them is to use Memoize::flush_cache, which will
call the CLEAR method on the underlying Memoize persistency implementation.
Sadly, neither Memoize::Storable nor the newer Memoize::YAML module
introduced in 68f532f4ba could optionally be used implement the
CLEAR method, so this is not an option.
Reseting the internal hash used to store the memoized values has the same
problem, because it calls the non-existing CLEAR method of the
underlying persistency layer, too.
Considering this and taking into account the different implementations
of the memoization modules, where Memoize::Storable is not in our control,
implementing the missing CLEAR method is not an option, at least not if
Memoize::Storable is still used.
Therefore the easiest solution to clear the cache is to delete the files
on disk in 'git svn reset'. Normally, deleting the files behind the back
of the memoization module would be problematic, because the in-memory
representation would still exist and contain wrong data. Fortunately, the
memoization is active in memory only for a small portion of the code.
Invalidating the cache by deleting the files on disk if it isn't active
should be safe.

Go through all the spots that use the new add_path_to_url() to
make a new URL and canonicalize them.
* copyfrom_path has to be canonicalized else find_parent_branch
will get confused
* due to the `canonicalize_url($full_url) ne $full_url)` line of
logic in gs_do_switch(), $full_url is left alone until after.
At this point SVN 1.7 passes except for 3 tests in
t9100-git-svn-basic.sh that look like an SVN bug to do with
symlinks.
