git-remote currently has one option, "--mirror", which sets
up mirror configuration which can be used for either
fetching or pushing. It looks like this:
[remote "mirror"]
url = wherever
fetch = +refs/*:refs/*
mirror = true
However, a remote like this can be dangerous and confusing.
Specifically:
1. If you issue the wrong command, it can be devastating.
You are not likely to "push" when you meant to "fetch",
but "git remote update" will try to fetch it, even if
you intended the remote only for pushing. In either
case, the results can be quite destructive. An
unintended push will overwrite or delete remote refs,
and an unintended fetch can overwrite local branches.
2. The tracking setup code can produce confusing results.
The fetch refspec above means that "git checkout -b new
master" will consider refs/heads/master to come from
the remote "mirror", even if you only ever intend to
push to the mirror. It will set up the "new" branch to
track mirror's refs/heads/master.
3. The push code tries to opportunistically update
tracking branches. If you "git push mirror foo:bar",
it will see that we are updating mirror's
refs/heads/bar, which corresponds to our local
refs/heads/bar, and will update our local branch.
To solve this, we split the concept into "push mirrors" and
"fetch mirrors". Push mirrors set only remote.*.mirror,
solving (2) and (3), and making an accidental fetch write
only into FETCH_HEAD. Fetch mirrors set only the fetch
refspec, meaning an accidental push will not force-overwrite
or delete refs on the remote end.
The new syntax is "--mirror=<fetch|push>". For
compatibility, we keep "--mirror" as-is, setting up both
types simultaneously.

It doesn't make sense to use "-m" on a mirror, since "-m"
sets up the HEAD symref in the remotes namespace, but with
mirror, we are by definition not using a remotes namespace.
Similarly, it does not make much sense to specify refspecs
with --mirror. For a mirror you plan to push to, those
refspecs will be ignored. For a mirror you are fetching
from, there is no point in mirroring, since the refspec
specifies everything you want to grab.
There is one case where "--mirror -t <X>" would be useful.
Because <X> is used as-is in the refspec, and because we
append it to to refs/, you could mirror a subset of the
hierarchy by doing:
git remote add --mirror -t 'tags/*'
But using anything besides a single branch as an argument to
"-t" is not documented and only happens to work, so closing
it off is not a serious regression.

* 'svn-fe' of git://repo.or.cz/git/jrn:
tests: kill backgrounded processes more robustly
vcs-svn: a void function shouldn't try to return something
tests: make sure input to sed is newline terminated
vcs-svn: add missing cast to printf argument
t0081 creates several background processes that write to a fifo and
then go to sleep for a while (so the reader of the fifo does not see
EOF).
Each background process is made in a curly-braced block in the shell,
and after we are done reading from the fifo, we use "kill $!" to kill
it off.
For a simple, single-command process, this works reliably and kills
the child sleep process. But for more complex commands like
"make_some_output && sleep", the results are less predictable. When
executing under bash, we end up with a subshell that gets killed by
the $! but leaves the sleep process still alive.
This is bad not only for process hygeine (we are leaving random sleep
processes to expire after a while), but also interacts badly with the
"prove" command. When prove executes a test, it does not realize the
test is done when it sees SIGCHLD, but rather waits until the test's
stdout pipe is closed. The orphaned sleep process may keep that pipe
open via test-lib's file descriptor 5, causing prove to hang for 100
seconds.
The solution is to explicitly use a subshell and to exec the final
sleep process, so that when we "kill $!" we get the process id of the
sleep process.
[jn: original patch by Jeff had some additional bits:
1. Wrap the "kill" in a test_when_finished, since we want
to clean up the process whether the test succeeds or not.
2. The "kill" is part of our && chain for test success. It
probably won't fail, but it can if the process has
expired before we manage to kill it. So let's mark it
as OK to fail.
I'm postponing that for now.]

Do not advertise no-done capability when upload-pack is not serving over

The fetch-pack/upload-pack protocol relies on the underlying transport
(local pipe or TCP socket) to have enough slack to allow one window worth
of data in flight without blocking the writer. Traditionally we always
relied on being able to have two windows of 32 "have"s in flight (roughly
3k bytes) to stream.
The recent "progressive-stride" change allows "fetch-pack" to send up to
1024 "have"s without reading any response from "upload-pack". The
outgoing pipe of "upload-pack" can be clogged with many ACK and NAK that
are unread, while "fetch-pack" is still stuffing its outgoing pipe with
more "have"s, leading to a deadlock.
Revert the change unless we are in stateless rpc (aka smart-http) mode, as
using a large window full of "have"s is still a good way to help reduce
the number of back-and-forth, and there is no buffering issue there (it is
strictly "ping-pong" without an overlap).
Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
When 'no-done' protocol extension is used, the upload-pack (i.e. the
server side) process stops listening to the fetch-pack after issuing the
final NAK, and starts sending the generated pack data back, but there may
be more "have" send by the latter in flight that the fetch-pack is
expecting to be responded with ACK/NAK. This will typically result in a
deadlock (both will block on write that the other end never reads) or
SIGPIPE on the fetch-pack end (upload-pack will finish writing a small
pack and goes away).
Disable it unless fetch-pack is running under smart-http, where there is
no such streaming issue.

The region copied is allowed to run past the end of the existing

than calling memcpy or memmove. This allows copyfrom_target to be
used once to repeat a string many times. For example:

Each window of an svndiff0-format delta includes a section for novel
text to be copied to the postimage (in the order it appears in the
window, possibly interspersed with other data).
Slurp in this data when encountering it. It is not actually necessary
to do so --- it would be just as easy to copy from delta to output
as part of interpreting the relevant instructions --- but this way,
the code that interprets svndiff0 instructions can proceed very
quickly because it does not require I/O.
Subversion's svndiff0 parser rejects deltas that do not consume all
the novel text that was provided. Omit that check for now so we can
test the new functionality right away, rather than waiting to learn
instructions that consume data.
Do check for truncated data sections. Subversion's parser rejects
deltas that end in the middle of a declared novel-text section, so it
should be safe for us to reject them, too.

The source view offset heading each svndiff0 window represents a
number of bytes past the beginning of the preimage. Together with the
source view length, it dictates to the delta applier what portion of
the preimage instructions will refer to. Read that portion right away
using the sliding window code.
Maybe some day we will use mmap to read data more lazily.
Subversion's implementation tolerates source view offsets pointing
past the end of the preimage file but we do not, for simplicity.
This does not teach the delta applier to read instructions or copy
data from the source view. Deltas that could produce nonempty output
will still be rejected.

source view offset
source view length
output length
instructions length
auxiliary data length
Parse it. The result is not usable for deltas with nonempty postimage
yet; in fact, this only adds support for deltas without any

Later patches will add features to turn this into a fully functional
delta applier for svn-fe to use to parse the streams produced by
"svnrdump dump" and "svnadmin dump --deltas".
The content of symlinks starts with the word "link " in Subversion's
worldview, so we need to be able to prepend that text to input for the
sake of delta application. So initialization of the input state of
the delta preimage is left to the calling program, giving callers a
chance to seed the buffer with text of their choice.

buffer_read_binary is a thin wrapper around fread, but its signature
is wrong:
- fread can fill an arbitrary in-memory buffer. buffer_read_binary
is limited to buffers whose size is representable by a 32-bit
integer.
- The result from fread is the number of bytes actually read.
buffer_read_binary only reports the number of bytes read by
incrementing sb->len by that amount and returns void.
Fix both: let buffer_read_binary accept a size_t instead of uint32_t
for the number of bytes to read and as a convenience return the number

Each section of a Subversion-format delta only requires examining (and
keeping in random-access memory) a small portion of the preimage. At
any moment, this portion starts at a certain file offset and has a
well-defined length, and as the delta is applied, the portion advances
from the beginning to the end of the preimage. Add a move_window
function to keep track of this view into the preimage.
You can use it like this:
buffer_init(f, NULL);
struct sliding_view window = SLIDING_VIEW_INIT(f);
move_window(&window, 3, 7); /* (1) */
move_window(&window, 5, 5); /* (2) */
move_window(&window, 12, 2); /* (3) */
strbuf_release(&window.buf);
buffer_deinit(f);
The data structure is called sliding_view instead of _window to
prevent confusion with svndiff0 Windows.
In this example, (1) reads 10 bytes and discards the first 3;
(2) discards the first 2, which are not needed any more; and (3) skips
2 bytes and reads 2 new bytes to work with.
When move_window returns, the file position indicator is at position
window->off + window->width and the data from positions window->off to
the current file position are stored in window->buf.
This function performs only sequential access from the input file and
never seeks, so it can be safely used on pipes and sockets.
On end-of-file, move_window silently reads less than the caller
requested. On other errors, it prints a message and returns -1.
