In order to create an incremental bundle, we need to pass many arguments to let git-bundle ignore some already packed commits. It will be more convenient to pass args via stdin. But the current implementation does not allow us to do this. This is because args are parsed twice when creating bundle. The first time for parsing args is in `compute_and_write_prerequisites()` by running `git-rev-list` command to write prerequisites in bundle file, and stdin is consumed in this step if "--stdin" option is provided for `git-bundle`. Later nothing can be read from stdin when running `setup_revisions()` in `create_bundle()`. The solution is to parse args once by removing the entire function `compute_and_write_prerequisites()` and then calling function `setup_revisions()`. In order to write prerequisites for bundle, will call `prepare_revision_walk()` and `traverse_commit_list()`. But after calling `prepare_revision_walk()`, the object array `revs.pending` is left empty, and the following steps could not work properly with the empty object array (`revs.pending`). Therefore, make a copy of `revs` to `revs_copy` for later use right after calling `setup_revisions()`. The copy of `revs_copy` is not a deep copy, it shares the same objects with `revs`. The object array of `revs` has been cleared, but objects themselves are still kept. Flags of objects may change after calling `prepare_revision_walk()`, we can use these changed flags without calling the `git rev-list` command and parsing its output like the former implementation. Also add testcases for git bundle in t6020, which read args from stdin. Signed-off-by: Jiang Xin <zhiyou.jx@alibaba-inc.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
Git - fast, scalable, distributed revision control system
Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals.
Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses, compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.
Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.
Many Git online resources are accessible from https://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools.
See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see
Documentation/giteveryday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and
Documentation/git-<commandname>.txt for documentation of each command.
If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be
read with man gittutorial or git help tutorial, and the
documentation of each command with man git-<commandname> or git help <commandname>.
CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt
(man gitcvs-migration or git help cvs-migration if git is
installed).
The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission). To subscribe to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at https://lore.kernel.org/git/, http://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.
Issues which are security relevant should be disclosed privately to the Git Security mailing list git-security@googlegroups.com.
The maintainer frequently sends the "What's cooking" reports that list the current status of various development topics to the mailing list. The discussion following them give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.
The name "git" was given by Linus Torvalds when he wrote the very first version. He described the tool as "the stupid content tracker" and the name as (depending on your mood):
- random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not actually used by any common UNIX command. The fact that it is a mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant.
- stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the dictionary of slang.
- "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
- "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks
