From: Michael Haggerty <[email protected]>
There were various confusing things (and a couple of bugs) in the way
that fetch_pack() handled the list (nr_heads, heads) of references to
be sought from the remote:
* Different names were used for the list in different functions for no
special reason.
* fetch_pack() modified the list in-place:
* It moved entries around
* It sometimes shrunk the list without informing the caller (which
could lead to spurious error messages)
* It overwrote the first byte of matching entries with NUL, leaving
a sparse list that the caller had to interpret
* Its interaction with the list was documented
* No error was reported if *all* requested references were missing
from the remote.
I'm still suspicious about the logic related to args.fetch_all and
args.depth, but I don't think I've made anything worse.
This patch series applies to the merge between master and
jc/maint-push-refs-all, though the dependency on the latter is only
textual.
Michael Haggerty (17):
t5500: add tests of error output for missing refs
Rename static function fetch_pack() to http_fetch_pack()
Fix formatting.
Name local variables more consistently
Do not check the same match_pos twice
Let fetch_pack() inform caller about number of unique heads
Pass nr_heads to do_pack_ref() by reference
Pass nr_heads to everything_local() by reference
Pass nr_heads to filter_refs() by reference
Remove ineffective optimization
filter_refs(): do not leave gaps in return_refs
filter_refs(): compress unmatched refs in heads array
cmd_fetch_pack: return early if finish_connect() returns an error
Report missing refs even if no existing refs were received
cmd_fetch_pack(): simplify computation of return value
fetch_pack(): free matching heads
fetch_refs(): simplify logic
