Abstract: When a vulnerability is reported, we follow these guidelines to
assess the vulnerability, create and review a fix, and coordinate embargoed
security releases.
How we coordinate embargoed releases
------------------------------------
To protect Git users from critical vulnerabilities, we do not just release
fixed versions like regular maintenance releases. Instead, we coordinate
releases with packagers, keeping the fixes under an embargo until the release
date. That way, users will have a chance to upgrade on that date, no matter
what Operating System or distribution they run.
The `git-security` mailing list
-------------------------------
Responsible disclosures of vulnerabilities, analysis, proposed fixes as
well as the orchestration of coordinated embargoed releases all happen on the
`git-security` mailing list at <git-security@googlegroups.com>.
In this context, the term "embargo" refers to the time period that information
about a vulnerability is kept under wraps and only shared on a need-to-know
basis. This is necessary to protect Git's users from bad actors who would
otherwise be made aware of attack vectors that could be exploited. "Lifting the
embargo" refers to publishing the version that fixes the vulnerabilities.
Audience of the `git-security` mailing list
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Anybody may contact the `git-security` mailing list by sending an email
to <git-security@googlegroups.com>, though the archive is closed to the
public and only accessible to subscribed members.
There are a few dozen subscribed members: core Git developers who are trusted
with addressing vulnerabilities, and stakeholders (i.e. owners of products
affected by security vulnerabilities in Git).
Most of the discussions revolve around assessing the severity of the reported
issue (including the decision whether the report is security-relevant or can be
redirected to the public mailing list), how to remediate the issue, determining
the timeline of the disclosure as well as aligning priorities and
requirements.
Communications
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you are a stakeholder, it is a good idea to pay close attention to the
discussions, as pertinent information may be buried in the middle of a lively
conversation that might not look relevant to your interests. For example, the
tentative timeline might be agreed upon in the middle of discussing code
comment formatting in one of the patches and whether or not to combine fixes
for multiple, separate vulnerabilities into the same embargoed release. Most
mail threads are not usually structured specifically to communicate
agreements, assessments or timelines.
Typical timeline
----------------
- A potential vulnerability is reported to the `git-security` mailing list.
- The members of the git-security list start a discussion to give an initial
assessment of the severity of the reported potential vulnerability.
We aspire to do so within a few days.
- After discussion, if consensus is reached that it is not critical enough
to warrant any embargo, the reporter is redirected to the public Git mailing
list. This ends the reporter's interaction with the `git-security` list.
- If it is deemed critical enough for an embargo, ideas are presented on how to
address the vulnerability.
- Usually around that time, the Git maintainer or their delegate(s) open a draft
security advisory in the `git/git` repository on GitHub (see below for more
details).
- Code review can take place in a variety of different locations,
depending on context. These are: patches sent inline on the git-security list,
a private fork on GitHub associated with the draft security advisory, or the
git/cabal repository.
- Contributors working on a fix should consider beginning by sending
patches to the git-security list (inline with the original thread), since they
are accessible to all subscribers, along with the original reporter.
- Once the review has settled and everyone involved in the review agrees that
the patches are nearing the finish line, the Git maintainer, and others
determine a release date as well as the release trains that are serviced. The
decision regarding which versions need a backported fix is based on input from
the reporter, the contributor who worked on the patches, and from
stakeholders. Operators of hosting sites who may want to analyze whether the
given issue is exploited via any of the repositories they host, and binary
packagers who want to make sure their product gets patched adequately against
the vulnerability, for example, may want to give their input at this stage.
- While the Git community does its best to accommodate the specific timeline
requests of the various binary packagers, the nature of the issue may preclude
a prolonged release schedule. For fixes deemed urgent, it may be in the best
interest of the Git users community to shorten the disclosure and release
timeline, and packagers may need to adapt accordingly.
- Subsequently, branches with the fixes are pushed to the git/cabal repository.
- The tags are created by the Git maintainer and pushed to the same repository.
- The Git for Windows, Git for macOS, BSD, Debian, etc. maintainers prepare the
corresponding release artifacts, based on the tags created that have been
prepared by the Git maintainer.
- The release artifacts prepared by various binary packagers can be
made available to stakeholders under embargo via a mail to the
`git-security` list.
- Less than a week before the release, a mail with the relevant information is
sent to <distros@vs.openwall.org> (see below), a list used to pre-announce
embargoed releases of open source projects to the stakeholders of all major
distributions of Linux as well as other OSes.
- Public communication is then prepared in advance of the release date. This
includes blog posts and mails to the Git and Git for Windows mailing lists.
- On the day of the release, at around 10am Pacific Time, the Git maintainer
pushes the tag and the `master` branch to the public repository, then sends
out an announcement mail.
- Once the tag is pushed, the Git for Windows maintainer publishes the
corresponding tag and creates a GitHub Release with the associated release
artifacts (Git for Windows installer, Portable Git, MinGit, etc).
- Git for Windows release is then announced via a mail to the public Git and
Git for Windows mailing lists as well as via a tweet.
- Ditto for distribution packagers for Linux and other platforms:
their releases are announced via their preferred channels.
- A mail to <oss-security@lists.openwall.org> (see below for details) is sent
as a follow-up to the <distros@vs.openwall.org> one, describing the
vulnerability in detail, often including a proof of concept of an exploit.
Note: The Git project makes no guarantees about timelines, but aims to keep
embargoes reasonably short in the interest of keeping Git's users safe.
Opening a Security Advisory draft
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The first step is to https://github.com/git/git/security/advisories/new[open
an advisory]. Technically, this is not necessary. However, it is the most
convenient way to obtain the CVE number and it gives us a private repository
associated with it that can be used to collaborate on a fix.
Notifying the Linux distributions
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
At most two weeks before release date, we need to send a notification to
<distros@vs.openwall.org>, preferably less than 7 days before the release date.
This will reach most (all?) Linux distributions. See an example below, and the
guidelines for this mailing list at
https://oss-security.openwall.org/wiki/mailing-lists/distros#how-to-use-the-lists[here].
Once the version has been published, we send a note about that to oss-security.
As an example, see https://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2019/12/13/1[the
v2.24.1 mail];
https://oss-security.openwall.org/wiki/mailing-lists/oss-security[Here] are
their guidelines.
The mail to oss-security should also describe the exploit, and give credit to
the reporter(s): security researchers still receive too little respect for the
invaluable service they provide, and public credit goes a long way to keep them
paid by their respective organizations.
Technically, describing any exploit can be delayed up to 7 days, but we usually
refrain from doing that, including it right away.
As a courtesy we typically attach a Git bundle (as `.tar.xz` because the list
will drop `.bundle` attachments) in the mail to distros@ so that the involved
parties can take care of integrating/backporting them. This bundle is typically
created using a command like this:
git bundle create cve-xxx.bundle ^origin/master vA.B.C vD.E.F
tar cJvf cve-xxx.bundle.tar.xz cve-xxx.bundle
Example mail to distros@vs.openwall.org
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
....
To: distros@vs.openwall.org
Cc: git-security@googlegroups.com, <other people involved in the report/fix>
Subject: [vs] Upcoming Git security fix release
Team,
The Git project will release new versions on <date> at 10am Pacific Time or
soon thereafter. I have attached a Git bundle (embedded in a `.tar.xz` to avoid
it being dropped) which you can fetch into a clone of
https://github.com/git/git via `git fetch --tags /path/to/cve-xxx.bundle`,
containing the tags for versions <versions>.
You can verify with `git tag -v <tag>` that the versions were signed by
the Git maintainer, using the same GPG key as e.g. v2.24.0.
Please use these tags to prepare `git` packages for your various
distributions, using the appropriate tagged versions. The added test cases
help verify the correctness.
The addressed issues are:

<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>To protect Git users from critical vulnerabilities, we do not just release
fixed versions like regular maintenance releases. Instead, we coordinate
releases with packagers, keeping the fixes under an embargo until the release
date. That way, users will have a chance to upgrade on that date, no matter
what Operating System or distribution they run.</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="sect1">
<h2 id="_the_git_security_mailing_list">The <code>git-security</code> mailing list</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Responsible disclosures of vulnerabilities, analysis, proposed fixes as
well as the orchestration of coordinated embargoed releases all happen on the
<code>git-security</code> mailing list at &lt;<a href="mailto:git-security@googlegroups.com">git-security@googlegroups.com</a>&gt;.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>In this context, the term "embargo" refers to the time period that information
about a vulnerability is kept under wraps and only shared on a need-to-know
basis. This is necessary to protect Git&#8217;s users from bad actors who would
otherwise be made aware of attack vectors that could be exploited. "Lifting the
embargo" refers to publishing the version that fixes the vulnerabilities.</p>
</div>
<div class="sect2">
<h3 id="_audience_of_the_git_security_mailing_list">Audience of the <code>git-security</code> mailing list</h3>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Anybody may contact the <code>git-security</code> mailing list by sending an email
to &lt;<a href="mailto:git-security@googlegroups.com">git-security@googlegroups.com</a>&gt;, though the archive is closed to the
public and only accessible to subscribed members.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>There are a few dozen subscribed members: core Git developers who are trusted
with addressing vulnerabilities, and stakeholders (i.e. owners of products
affected by security vulnerabilities in Git).</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Most of the discussions revolve around assessing the severity of the reported
issue (including the decision whether the report is security-relevant or can be
redirected to the public mailing list), how to remediate the issue, determining
the timeline of the disclosure as well as aligning priorities and
requirements.</p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="sect2">
<h3 id="_communications">Communications</h3>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>If you are a stakeholder, it is a good idea to pay close attention to the
discussions, as pertinent information may be buried in the middle of a lively
conversation that might not look relevant to your interests. For example, the
tentative timeline might be agreed upon in the middle of discussing code
comment formatting in one of the patches and whether or not to combine fixes
for multiple, separate vulnerabilities into the same embargoed release. Most
mail threads are not usually structured specifically to communicate
agreements, assessments or timelines.</p>

<li>
<p>A potential vulnerability is reported to the <code>git-security</code> mailing list.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>The members of the git-security list start a discussion to give an initial
assessment of the severity of the reported potential vulnerability.
We aspire to do so within a few days.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>After discussion, if consensus is reached that it is not critical enough
to warrant any embargo, the reporter is redirected to the public Git mailing
list. This ends the reporter&#8217;s interaction with the <code>git-security</code> list.</p>

<p>If it is deemed critical enough for an embargo, ideas are presented on how to
address the vulnerability.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Usually around that time, the Git maintainer or their delegate(s) open a draft
security advisory in the <code>git/git</code> repository on GitHub (see below for more
details).</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Code review can take place in a variety of different locations,
depending on context. These are: patches sent inline on the git-security list,
a private fork on GitHub associated with the draft security advisory, or the
git/cabal repository.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Contributors working on a fix should consider beginning by sending
patches to the git-security list (inline with the original thread), since they
are accessible to all subscribers, along with the original reporter.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Once the review has settled and everyone involved in the review agrees that
the patches are nearing the finish line, the Git maintainer, and others
determine a release date as well as the release trains that are serviced. The
decision regarding which versions need a backported fix is based on input from
the reporter, the contributor who worked on the patches, and from
stakeholders. Operators of hosting sites who may want to analyze whether the
given issue is exploited via any of the repositories they host, and binary
packagers who want to make sure their product gets patched adequately against
the vulnerability, for example, may want to give their input at this stage.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>While the Git community does its best to accommodate the specific timeline
requests of the various binary packagers, the nature of the issue may preclude
a prolonged release schedule. For fixes deemed urgent, it may be in the best
interest of the Git users community to shorten the disclosure and release
timeline, and packagers may need to adapt accordingly.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Subsequently, branches with the fixes are pushed to the git/cabal repository.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>The tags are created by the Git maintainer and pushed to the same repository.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>The Git for Windows, Git for macOS, BSD, Debian, etc. maintainers prepare the
corresponding release artifacts, based on the tags created that have been
prepared by the Git maintainer.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>The release artifacts prepared by various binary packagers can be
made available to stakeholders under embargo via a mail to the
<code>git-security</code> list.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Less than a week before the release, a mail with the relevant information is
sent to &lt;<a href="mailto:distros@vs.openwall.org">distros@vs.openwall.org</a>&gt; (see below), a list used to pre-announce
embargoed releases of open source projects to the stakeholders of all major
distributions of Linux as well as other OSes.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Public communication is then prepared in advance of the release date. This
includes blog posts and mails to the Git and Git for Windows mailing lists.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>On the day of the release, at around 10am Pacific Time, the Git maintainer
pushes the tag and the <code>master</code> branch to the public repository, then sends
out an announcement mail.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Once the tag is pushed, the Git for Windows maintainer publishes the
corresponding tag and creates a GitHub Release with the associated release
artifacts (Git for Windows installer, Portable Git, MinGit, etc).</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Git for Windows release is then announced via a mail to the public Git and
Git for Windows mailing lists as well as via a tweet.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Ditto for distribution packagers for Linux and other platforms:
their releases are announced via their preferred channels.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>A mail to &lt;<a href="mailto:oss-security@lists.openwall.org">oss-security@lists.openwall.org</a>&gt; (see below for details) is sent
as a follow-up to the &lt;<a href="mailto:distros@vs.openwall.org">distros@vs.openwall.org</a>&gt; one, describing the
vulnerability in detail, often including a proof of concept of an exploit.</p>
</li>
</ul>

Team,
The Git project will release new versions on &lt;date&gt; at 10am Pacific Time or
soon thereafter. I have attached a Git bundle (embedded in a `.tar.xz` to avoid
it being dropped) which you can fetch into a clone of
https://github.com/git/git via `git fetch --tags /path/to/cve-xxx.bundle`,
containing the tags for versions &lt;versions&gt;.
You can verify with `git tag -v &lt;tag&gt;` that the versions were signed by
the Git maintainer, using the same GPG key as e.g. v2.24.0.
Please use these tags to prepare `git` packages for your various
distributions, using the appropriate tagged versions. The added test cases
help verify the correctness.
The addressed issues are:

Subject: Beginner question on "Pull is mostly evil"
Abstract: This how-to explains a method for keeping a
project's history correct when using git pull.
Content-type: text/asciidoc
Keep authoritative canonical history correct with git pull
==========================================================
Sometimes a new project integrator will end up with project history
that appears to be "backwards" from what other project developers
expect. This howto presents a suggested integration workflow for
maintaining a central repository.
Suppose that the central repository has this history:
------------
---o---o---A
------------
which ends at commit `A` (time flows from left to right and each node
in the graph is a commit, lines between them indicating parent-child
relationship).
Then you clone it and work on your own commits, which leads you to
have this history in *your* repository:
------------
---o---o---A---B---C
------------
Imagine your coworker did the same and built on top of `A` in *his*
repository in the meantime, and then pushed it to the
central repository:
------------
---o---o---A---X---Y---Z
------------
Now, if you `git push` at this point, because your history that leads
to `C` lacks `X`, `Y` and `Z`, it will fail. You need to somehow make
the tip of your history a descendant of `Z`.
One suggested way to solve the problem is "fetch and then merge", aka
`git pull`. When you fetch, your repository will have a history like
this:
------------
---o---o---A---B---C
\
X---Y---Z
------------
Once you run merge after that, while still on *your* branch, i.e. `C`,
you will create a merge `M` and make the history look like this:
------------
---o---o---A---B---C---M
\ /
X---Y---Z
------------
`M` is a descendant of `Z`, so you can push to update the central
repository. Such a merge `M` does not lose any commit in both
histories, so in that sense it may not be wrong, but when people want
to talk about "the authoritative canonical history that is shared
among the project participants", i.e. "the trunk", they often view
it as "commits you see by following the first-parent chain", and use
this command to view it:
------------
$ git log --first-parent
------------
For all other people who observed the central repository after your
coworker pushed `Z` but before you pushed `M`, the commit on the trunk
used to be `o-o-A-X-Y-Z`. But because you made `M` while you were on
`C`, `M`'s first parent is `C`, so by pushing `M` to advance the
central repository, you made `X-Y-Z` a side branch, not on the trunk.
You would rather want to have a history of this shape:
------------
---o---o---A---X---Y---Z---M'
\ /
B-----------C
------------
so that in the first-parent chain, it is clear that the project first
did `X` and then `Y` and then `Z` and merged a change that consists of
two commits `B` and `C` that achieves a single goal. You may have
worked on fixing the bug #12345 with these two patches, and the merge
`M'` with swapped parents can say in its log message "Merge
fix-bug-12345". Having a way to tell `git pull` to create a merge
but record the parents in reverse order may be a way to do so.
Note that I said "achieves a single goal" above, because this is
important. "Swapping the merge order" only covers a special case
where the project does not care too much about having unrelated
things done on a single merge but cares a lot about first-parent
chain.
There are multiple schools of thought about the "trunk" management.
1. Some projects want to keep a completely linear history without any
merges. Obviously, swapping the merge order would not match their
taste. You would need to flatten your history on top of the
updated upstream to result in a history of this shape instead:
+
------------
---o---o---A---X---Y---Z---B---C
------------
+
with `git pull --rebase` or something.
2. Some projects tolerate merges in their history, but do not worry
too much about the first-parent order, and allow fast-forward
merges. To them, swapping the merge order does not hurt, but
it is unnecessary.
3. Some projects want each commit on the "trunk" to do one single
thing. The output of `git log --first-parent` in such a project
would show either a merge of a side branch that completes a single
theme, or a single commit that completes a single theme by itself.
If your two commits `B` and `C` (or they may even be two groups of
commits) were solving two independent issues, then the merge `M'`
we made in the earlier example by swapping the merge order is
still not up to the project standard. It merges two unrelated
efforts `B` and `C` at the same time.
For projects in the last category (Git itself is one of them),
individual developers would want to prepare a history more like
this:
------------
C0--C1--C2 topic-c
/
---o---o---A master
\
B0--B1--B2 topic-b
------------
That is, keeping separate topics on separate branches, perhaps like
so:
------------
$ git clone $URL work && cd work
$ git checkout -b topic-b master
$ ... work to create B0, B1 and B2 to complete one theme
$ git checkout -b topic-c master
$ ... same for the theme of topic-c
------------
And then
------------
$ git checkout master
$ git pull --ff-only
------------
would grab `X`, `Y` and `Z` from the upstream and advance your master
branch:
------------
C0--C1--C2 topic-c
/
---o---o---A---X---Y---Z master
\
B0--B1--B2 topic-b
------------
And then you would merge these two branches separately:
------------
$ git merge topic-b
$ git merge topic-c
------------
to result in
------------
C0--C1---------C2
/ \
---o---o---A---X---Y---Z---M---N
\ /
B0--B1-----B2
------------
and push it back to the central repository.
It is very much possible that while you are merging topic-b and
topic-c, somebody again advanced the history in the central repository
to put `W` on top of `Z`, and make your `git push` fail.
In such a case, you would rewind to discard `M` and `N`, update the
tip of your 'master' again and redo the two merges:
------------
$ git reset --hard origin/master
$ git pull --ff-only
$ git merge topic-b
$ git merge topic-c
------------
The procedure will result in a history that looks like this:
------------
C0--C1--------------C2
/ \
---o---o---A---X---Y---Z---W---M'--N'
\ /
B0--B1---------B2
------------

<h1>Keep authoritative canonical history correct with git pull</h1>
</div>
<div id="content">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Sometimes a new project integrator will end up with project history
that appears to be "backwards" from what other project developers
expect. This howto presents a suggested integration workflow for
maintaining a central repository.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Suppose that the central repository has this history:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> ---o---o---A</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>which ends at commit <code>A</code> (time flows from left to right and each node
in the graph is a commit, lines between them indicating parent-child
relationship).</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Then you clone it and work on your own commits, which leads you to
have this history in <strong>your</strong> repository:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> ---o---o---A---B---C</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Imagine your coworker did the same and built on top of <code>A</code> in <strong>his</strong>
repository in the meantime, and then pushed it to the
central repository:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> ---o---o---A---X---Y---Z</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Now, if you <code>git</code> <code>push</code> at this point, because your history that leads
to <code>C</code> lacks <code>X</code>, <code>Y</code> and <code>Z</code>, it will fail. You need to somehow make
the tip of your history a descendant of <code>Z</code>.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>One suggested way to solve the problem is "fetch and then merge", aka
<code>git</code> <code>pull</code>. When you fetch, your repository will have a history like
this:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> ---o---o---A---B---C
\
X---Y---Z</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Once you run merge after that, while still on <strong>your</strong> branch, i.e. <code>C</code>,
you will create a merge <code>M</code> and make the history look like this:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> ---o---o---A---B---C---M
\ /
X---Y---Z</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p><code>M</code> is a descendant of <code>Z</code>, so you can push to update the central
repository. Such a merge <code>M</code> does not lose any commit in both
histories, so in that sense it may not be wrong, but when people want
to talk about "the authoritative canonical history that is shared
among the project participants", i.e. "the trunk", they often view
it as "commits you see by following the first-parent chain", and use
this command to view it:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> $ git log --first-parent</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>For all other people who observed the central repository after your
coworker pushed <code>Z</code> but before you pushed <code>M</code>, the commit on the trunk
used to be <code>o-o-A-X-Y-Z</code>. But because you made <code>M</code> while you were on
<code>C</code>, <code>M</code>'s first parent is <code>C</code>, so by pushing <code>M</code> to advance the
central repository, you made <code>X-Y-Z</code> a side branch, not on the trunk.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>You would rather want to have a history of this shape:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> ---o---o---A---X---Y---Z---M'
\ /
B-----------C</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>so that in the first-parent chain, it is clear that the project first
did <code>X</code> and then <code>Y</code> and then <code>Z</code> and merged a change that consists of
two commits <code>B</code> and <code>C</code> that achieves a single goal. You may have
worked on fixing the bug #12345 with these two patches, and the merge
<code>M</code>' with swapped parents can say in its log message "Merge
fix-bug-12345". Having a way to tell <code>git</code> <code>pull</code> to create a merge
but record the parents in reverse order may be a way to do so.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Note that I said "achieves a single goal" above, because this is
important. "Swapping the merge order" only covers a special case
where the project does not care too much about having unrelated
things done on a single merge but cares a lot about first-parent
chain.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>There are multiple schools of thought about the "trunk" management.</p>
</div>
<div class="olist arabic">
<ol class="arabic">
<li>
<p>Some projects want to keep a completely linear history without any
merges. Obviously, swapping the merge order would not match their
taste. You would need to flatten your history on top of the
updated upstream to result in a history of this shape instead:</p>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> ---o---o---A---X---Y---Z---B---C</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>with <code>git</code> <code>pull</code> <code>--rebase</code> or something.</p>
</div>
</li>
<li>
<p>Some projects tolerate merges in their history, but do not worry
too much about the first-parent order, and allow fast-forward
merges. To them, swapping the merge order does not hurt, but
it is unnecessary.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Some projects want each commit on the "trunk" to do one single
thing. The output of <code>git</code> <code>log</code> <code>--first-parent</code> in such a project
would show either a merge of a side branch that completes a single
theme, or a single commit that completes a single theme by itself.
If your two commits <code>B</code> and <code>C</code> (or they may even be two groups of
commits) were solving two independent issues, then the merge <code>M</code>'
we made in the earlier example by swapping the merge order is
still not up to the project standard. It merges two unrelated
efforts <code>B</code> and <code>C</code> at the same time.</p>
</li>
</ol>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>For projects in the last category (Git itself is one of them),
individual developers would want to prepare a history more like
this:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> C0--C1--C2 topic-c
/
---o---o---A master
\
B0--B1--B2 topic-b</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>That is, keeping separate topics on separate branches, perhaps like
so:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> $ git clone $URL work &amp;&amp; cd work
$ git checkout -b topic-b master
$ ... work to create B0, B1 and B2 to complete one theme
$ git checkout -b topic-c master
$ ... same for the theme of topic-c</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>And then</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> $ git checkout master
$ git pull --ff-only</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>would grab <code>X</code>, <code>Y</code> and <code>Z</code> from the upstream and advance your master
branch:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> C0--C1--C2 topic-c
/
---o---o---A---X---Y---Z master
\
B0--B1--B2 topic-b</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>And then you would merge these two branches separately:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> $ git merge topic-b
$ git merge topic-c</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>to result in</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> C0--C1---------C2
/ \
---o---o---A---X---Y---Z---M---N
\ /
B0--B1-----B2</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>and push it back to the central repository.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>It is very much possible that while you are merging topic-b and
topic-c, somebody again advanced the history in the central repository
to put <code>W</code> on top of <code>Z</code>, and make your <code>git</code> <code>push</code> fail.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>In such a case, you would rewind to discard <code>M</code> and <code>N</code>, update the
tip of your <em>master</em> again and redo the two merges:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> $ git reset --hard origin/master
$ git pull --ff-only
$ git merge topic-b
$ git merge topic-c</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The procedure will result in a history that looks like this:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> C0--C1--------------C2
/ \
---o---o---A---X---Y---Z---W---M'--N'
\ /
B0--B1---------B2</pre>

Subject: Addendum to "MaintNotes"
Abstract: Imagine that Git development is racing along as usual, when our friendly
neighborhood maintainer is struck down by a wayward bus. Out of the
hordes of suckers (loyal developers), you have been tricked (chosen) to
step up as the new maintainer. This howto will show you "how to" do it.
Content-type: text/asciidoc
How to maintain Git
===================
Activities
----------
The maintainer's Git time is spent on three activities.
- Communication (45%)
Mailing list discussions on general design, fielding user
questions, diagnosing bug reports; reviewing, commenting on,
suggesting alternatives to, and rejecting patches.
- Integration (50%)
Applying new patches from the contributors while spotting and
correcting minor mistakes, shuffling the integration and
testing branches, pushing the results out, cutting the
releases, and making announcements.
- Own development (5%)
Scratching my own itch and sending proposed patch series out.
The Policy
----------
The policy on Integration is informally mentioned in "A Note
from the maintainer" message, which is periodically posted to
the mailing list after each feature release is made:
- Feature releases are numbered as vX.Y.0 and are meant to
contain bugfixes and enhancements in any area, including
functionality, performance and usability, without regression.
- Maintenance releases are numbered as vX.Y.Z (0 < Z) and are meant
to contain only bugfixes for the corresponding vX.Y.0 feature
release and earlier maintenance releases vX.Y.W (W < Z).
- The 'master' branch is used to prepare for the next feature
release. In other words, at some point, the tip of 'master'
branch is tagged as vX.(Y+1).0, when vX.Y.0 is the latest
feature release.
- 'maint' branch is used to prepare for the next maintenance
release. After the feature release vX.Y.0 is made, the tip
of 'maint' branch is set to that release, and bugfixes will
accumulate on the branch, and at some point, the tip of the
branch is tagged with vX.Y.1, vX.Y.2, and so on.
- 'next' branch is used to publish changes (both enhancements
and fixes) that (1) have worthwhile goal, (2) are in a fairly
good shape suitable for everyday use, (3) but have not yet
demonstrated to be regression free. Reviews from contributors on
the mailing list help to make the determination. After a topic
is merged to 'next', it is tested for at least 7 calendar days
before getting merged to 'master'.
- 'seen' branch is used to publish other proposed changes that do
not yet pass the criteria set for 'next' (see above), but there
is no promise that 'seen' will contain everything. A topic that
had no reviewer reaction may not be picked up.
- A new topic will first get merged to 'seen', unless it is
trivially correct and clearly urgent, in which case it may be
directly merged to 'next' or even to 'master'.
- If a topic that was picked up to 'seen' becomes and stays
inactive for 3 calendar weeks without having seen a clear
consensus that it is good enough to be moved to 'next', the
topic may be discarded from 'seen'. Interested parties are
still free to revive the topic. For the purpose of this
guideline, the definition of being "inactive" is that nobody
has discussed the topic, no new iteration of the topic was
posted, and no responses to the review comments were given.
- The tips of 'master' and 'maint' branches will not be rewound to
allow people to build their own customization on top of them.
Early in a new development cycle, 'next' is rewound to the tip of
'master' once, but otherwise it will not be rewound until the end
of the cycle.
- Usually 'master' contains all of 'maint' and 'next' contains all
of 'master'. 'seen' contains all the topics merged to 'next', but
is rebuilt directly on 'master'.
- The tip of 'master' is meant to be more stable than any
tagged releases, and the users are encouraged to follow it.
- The 'next' branch is where new action takes place, and the
users are encouraged to test it so that regressions and bugs
are found before new topics are merged to 'master'.
- When a problem is found in a topic in 'next', the topic is marked
not to be merged to 'master'. Follow-up patches are discussed on
the mailing list and applied to the topic after being reviewed and
then the topic is merged (again) to 'next'. After going through
the usual testing in 'next', the entire (fixed) topic is merged
to 'master'.
- One release cycle for a feature release is expected to last for
eight to ten weeks. A few "release candidate" releases are
expected to be tagged about a week apart before the final
release, and a "preview" release is tagged about a week before
the first release candidate gets tagged.
- After the preview release is tagged, topics that were well
reviewed may be merged to 'master' before spending the usual 7
calendar days in 'next', with the expectation that any bugs in
them can be caught and fixed in the release candidates before
the final release.
- After the first release candidate is tagged, the contributors are
strongly encouraged to focus on finding and fixing new regressions
introduced during the cycle, over addressing old bugs and any new
features. Topics stop getting merged down from 'next' to 'master',
and new topics stop getting merged to 'next'. Unless they are fixes
to new regressions in the cycle, that is.
- Soon after a feature release is made, the tip of 'maint' gets
fast-forwarded to point at the release. Topics that have been
kept in 'next' are merged down to 'master' and a new development
cycle starts.
Note that before v1.9.0 release, the version numbers used to be
structured slightly differently. vX.Y.Z were feature releases while
vX.Y.Z.W were maintenance releases for vX.Y.Z.
Because most of the lines of code in Git are written by individual
contributors, and contributions come in the form of e-mailed patches
published on the mailing list, the project maintains a mapping from
individual commits to the Message-Id of the e-mail that resulted in
the commit, to help tracking the origin of the changes. The notes
in "refs/notes/amlog" are used for this purpose, and are published
along with the broken-out branches to the maintainer's repository.
A Typical Git Day
-----------------
A typical Git day for the maintainer implements the above policy
by doing the following:
- Scan mailing list. Respond with review comments, suggestions
etc. Kibitz. Collect potentially usable patches from the
mailing list. Patches about a single topic go to one mailbox (I
read my mail in Gnus, and type \C-o to save/append messages in
files in mbox format).
- Write his own patches to address issues raised on the list but
nobody has stepped up to solve. Send it out just like other
contributors do, and pick them up just like patches from other
contributors (see above).
- Review the patches in the saved mailboxes. Edit proposed log
message for typofixes and clarifications, and add Acks
collected from the list. Edit patch to incorporate "Oops,
that should have been like this" fixes from the discussion.
- Classify the collected patches and handle 'master' and
'maint' updates:
- Obviously correct fixes that pertain to the tip of 'maint'
are directly applied to 'maint'.
- Obviously correct fixes that pertain to the tip of 'master'
are directly applied to 'master'.
- Other topics are not handled in this step.
This step is done with "git am".
$ git checkout master ;# or "git checkout maint"
$ git am -sc3 mailbox
$ make test
In practice, almost no patch directly goes to 'master' or
'maint'.
Applying the e-mailed patches using "git am" automatically records
the mappings from 'Message-Id' to the applied commit in the "amlog"
notes. Periodically check that this is working with "git show -s
--notes=amlog $commit".
This mapping is maintained with the aid of the "post-applypatch"
hook found in the 'todo' branch. That hook should be installed
before applying patches. It is also helpful to carry forward any
relevant amlog entries when rebasing, so the following config may
be useful:
[notes]
rewriteRef = refs/notes/amlog
Avoid "cherry-pick", as it does not propagate notes by design. Use
either "git commit --amend" or "git rebase" to make corrections to
an existing commit, even for a single-patch topic.
Make sure that a push refspec for 'refs/notes/amlog' is in the
remote configuration for publishing repositories. A few sample
configurations look like the following:
[remote "github"]
url = https://github.com/gitster/git
pushurl = github.com:gitster/git.git
mirror
[remote "github2"]
url = https://github.com/git/git
fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/github2/*
pushurl = github.com:git/git.git
push = refs/heads/maint:refs/heads/maint
push = refs/heads/master:refs/heads/master
push = refs/heads/next:refs/heads/next
push = +refs/heads/seen:refs/heads/seen
push = +refs/notes/amlog
- Review the last issue of "What's cooking" message, review the
topics ready for merging (topic->master and topic->maint). Use
"Meta/cook -w" script (where Meta/ contains a checkout of the
'todo' branch) to aid this step.
And perform the merge. Use "Meta/Reintegrate -e" script (see
later) to aid this step.
$ Meta/cook -w last-issue-of-whats-cooking.mbox
$ git checkout master ;# or "git checkout maint"
$ echo ai/topic | Meta/Reintegrate -e ;# "git merge ai/topic"
$ git log -p ORIG_HEAD.. ;# final review
$ git diff ORIG_HEAD.. ;# final review
$ make test ;# final review
If the tip of 'master' is updated, also generate the preformatted
documentation and push the out result to git-htmldocs and
git-manpages repositories.
- Handle the remaining patches:
- Anything unobvious that is applicable to 'master' (in other
words, does not depend on anything that is still in 'next'
and not in 'master') is applied to a new topic branch that
is forked from the tip of 'master' (or the last feature release,
which is a bit older than 'master'). This includes both
enhancements and unobvious fixes to 'master'. A topic
branch is named as ai/topic where "ai" is two-letter string
named after author's initial and "topic" is a descriptive name
of the topic (in other words, "what's the series is about").
- An unobvious fix meant for 'maint' is applied to a new
topic branch that is forked from the tip of 'maint' (or the
oldest and still relevant maintenance branch). The
topic may be named as ai/maint-topic.
- Changes that pertain to an existing topic are applied to
the branch, but:
- obviously correct ones are applied first;
- questionable ones are discarded or applied to near the tip;
- Replacement patches to an existing topic are accepted only
for commits not in 'next'.
The initial round is done with:
$ git checkout ai/topic ;# or "git checkout -b ai/topic master"
$ git am -sc3 --whitespace=warn mailbox
and replacing an existing topic with subsequent round is done with:
$ git checkout master...ai/topic ;# try to reapply to the same base
$ git am -sc3 --whitespace=warn mailbox
to prepare the new round on a detached HEAD, and then
$ git range-diff @{-1}...
$ git diff @{-1}
to double check what changed since the last round, and finally
$ git checkout -B @{-1}
to conclude (the last step is why a topic already in 'next' is
not replaced but updated incrementally).
Whether it is the initial round or a subsequent round, the topic
may not build even in isolation, or may break the build when
merged to integration branches due to bugs. There may already
be obvious and trivial improvements suggested on the list. The
maintainer often adds an extra commit, with "SQUASH???" in its
title, to fix things up, before publishing the integration
branches to make it usable by other developers for testing.
These changes are what the maintainer is not 100% committed to
(trivial typofixes etc. are often squashed directly into the
patches that need fixing, without being applied as a separate
"SQUASH???" commit), so that they can be removed easily as needed.
The expectation is that the original author will make corrections
in a reroll.
- By now, new topic branches are created and existing topic
branches are updated. The integration branches 'next', 'jch',
and 'seen' need to be updated to contain them.
- If there are topics that have been merged to 'master' and should
be merged to 'maint', merge them to 'maint', and update the
release notes to the next maintenance release.
- Review the latest issue of "What's cooking" again. Are topics
that have been sufficiently long in 'next' ready to be merged to
'master'? Are topics we saw earlier and are in 'seen' now got
positive reviews and are ready to be merged to 'next'?
- If there are topics that have been cooking in 'next' long enough
and should be merged to 'master', merge them to 'master', and
update the release notes to the next feature release.
- If there were patches directly made on 'maint', merge 'maint' to
'master'; make sure that the result is what you want.
$ git checkout master
$ git merge -m "Sync with 'maint'" --no-log maint
$ git log -p --first-parent ORIG_HEAD..
$ make test
- Prepare to update the 'jch' branch, which is used to represent
somewhere between 'master' and 'seen' and often is slightly ahead
of 'next', and the 'seen' branch, which is used to hold the rest.
$ Meta/Reintegrate master..jch >Meta/redo-jch.sh
The result is a script that lists topics to be merged in order to
rebuild the current 'jch'. Do the same for 'seen'.
- Review the Meta/redo-jch.sh and Meta/redo-seen.sh scripts. The
former should have a line '### match next'---the idea is that
merging the topics listed before the line on top of 'master'
should result in a tree identical to that of 'next'.
- As newly created topics are usually merged near the tip of
'seen', add them to the end of the Meta/redo-seen.sh script.
Among the topics that were in 'seen', there may be ones that
are not quite ready for 'next' but are getting there. Move
them from Meta/redo-seen.sh to the end of Meta/redo-jch.sh.
The expectation is that you'd use 'jch' as your daily driver
as the first guinea pig, so you should choose carefully.
- Now we are ready to start rebuilding 'jch' and merging topics to
'next'. For each branch whose tip is not merged to 'next', one
of three things can happen:
- The commits are all next-worthy; merge the topic to next;
- The new parts are of mixed quality, but earlier ones are
next-worthy; merge the early parts to next;
- Nothing is next-worthy; do not do anything.
This step is aided with Meta/redo-jch.sh script created earlier.
If a topic that was already in 'next' gained a patch, the script
would list it as "ai/topic~1". To include the new patch to the
updated 'next', drop the "~1" part; to keep it excluded, do not
touch the line.
If a topic that was not in 'next' should be merged to 'next', add
it before the '### match next' line. Then:
$ git checkout --detach master
$ sh Meta/redo-jch.sh -c1
to rebuild the 'jch' branch from scratch. "-c1" tells the script
to stop merging at the first line that begins with '###'
(i.e. the "### match next" line you added earlier).
At this point, build-test the result. It may reveal semantic
conflicts (e.g. a topic renamed a variable, another added a new
reference to the variable under its old name), in which case
prepare an appropriate merge-fix first (see appendix), and
rebuild the 'jch' branch from scratch, starting at the tip of
'master', this time without using "-c1" to merge all topics.
Then do the same to 'next'.
$ git checkout next
$ sh Meta/redo-jch.sh -c1 -e
The "-e" option allows the merge message that comes from the
history of the topic and the comments in the "What's cooking" to
be edited. The resulting tree should match 'jch^{/^### match next'}'
as the same set of topics are merged on 'master'; otherwise there
is a mismerge. Investigate why and do not proceed until the mismerge
is found and rectified.
If 'master' was updated before you started redoing 'next', then
$ git diff 'jch^{/^### match next}' next
would show differences that went into 'master' (which 'jch' has,
but 'next' does not yet---often it is updates to the release
notes). Merge 'master' back to 'next' if that is the case.
$ git merge -m "Sync with 'master'" --no-log master
When all is well, clean up the redo-jch.sh script with
$ sh Meta/redo-jch.sh -u
This removes topics listed in the script that have already been
merged to 'master'. This may lose '### match next' marker;
add it again to the appropriate place when it happens.
- Rebuild 'seen' on top of 'jch'.
$ git checkout -B seen jch
$ sh Meta/redo-seen.sh
When all is well, clean up the redo-seen.sh script with
$ sh Meta/redo-seen.sh -u
Double check by running
$ git branch --no-merged seen '??/*'
to see there is no unexpected leftover topics.
At this point, build-test the result for semantic conflicts, and
if there are, prepare an appropriate merge-fix first (see
appendix), and rebuild the 'seen' branch from scratch, starting at
the tip of 'jch'.
- Update "What's cooking" message to review the updates to
existing topics, newly added topics and graduated topics.
This step is helped with Meta/cook script.
$ Meta/cook
This script inspects the history between master..seen, finds tips
of topic branches, compares what it found with the current
contents in Meta/whats-cooking.txt, and updates that file.
Topics not listed in the file but are found in master..seen are
added to the "New topics" section, topics listed in the file that
are no longer found in master..seen are moved to the "Graduated to
master" section, and topics whose commits changed their states
(e.g. used to be only in 'seen', now merged to 'next') are updated
with change markers "<<" and ">>".
Look for lines enclosed in "<<" and ">>"; they hold contents from
old file that are replaced by this integration round. After
verifying them, remove the old part. Review the description for
each topic and update its doneness and plan as needed. To review
the updated plan, run
$ Meta/cook -w
which will pick up comments given to the topics, such as "Will
merge to 'next'", etc. (see Meta/cook script to learn what kind
of phrases are supported).
- Compile, test and install all four (five) integration branches;
Meta/Dothem script may aid this step.
- Format documentation if the 'master' branch was updated;
Meta/dodoc.sh script may aid this step.
- Push the integration branches out to public places; Meta/pushall
script may aid this step.
Observations
------------
Some observations to be made.
* Each topic is tested individually, and also together with other
topics cooking first in 'seen', then in 'jch' and then in 'next'.
Until it matures, no part of it is merged to 'master'.
* A topic already in 'next' can get fixes while still in
'next'. Such a topic will have many merges to 'next' (in
other words, "git log --first-parent next" will show many
"Merge branch 'ai/topic' to next" for the same topic.
* An unobvious fix for 'maint' is cooked in 'next' and then
merged to 'master' to make extra sure it is Ok and then
merged to 'maint'.
* Even when 'next' becomes empty (in other words, all topics
prove stable and are merged to 'master' and "git diff master
next" shows empty), it has tons of merge commits that will
never be in 'master'.
* In principle, "git log --first-parent master..next" should
show nothing but merges (in practice, there are fixup commits
and reverts that are not merges).
* Commits near the tip of a topic branch that are not in 'next'
are fair game to be discarded, replaced or rewritten.
Commits already merged to 'next' will not be.
* Being in the 'next' branch is not a guarantee for a topic to
be included in the next feature release. Being in the
'master' branch typically is.
* Due to the nature of "SQUASH???" fix-ups, if the original author
agrees with the suggested changes, it is OK to squash them to
appropriate patches in the next round (when the suggested change
is small enough, the author should not even bother with
"Helped-by"). It is also OK to drop them from the next round
when the original author does not agree with the suggestion, but
the author is expected to say why somewhere in the discussion.
Appendix
--------
Preparing a "merge-fix"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A merge of two topics may not textually conflict but still have
conflict at the semantic level. A classic example is for one topic
to rename a variable and all its uses, while another topic adds a
new use of the variable under its old name. When these two topics
are merged together, the reference to the variable newly added by
the latter topic will still use the old name in the result.
The Meta/Reintegrate script that is used by redo-jch and redo-seen
scripts implements a crude but usable way to work around this issue.
When the script merges branch $X, it checks if "refs/merge-fix/$X"
exists, and if so, the effect of it is squashed into the result of
the mechanical merge. In other words,
$ echo $X | Meta/Reintegrate
is roughly equivalent to this sequence:
$ git merge --rerere-autoupdate $X
$ git commit
$ git cherry-pick -n refs/merge-fix/$X
$ git commit --amend
The goal of this "prepare a merge-fix" step is to come up with a
commit that can be squashed into a result of mechanical merge to
correct semantic conflicts.
After finding that the result of merging branch "ai/topic" to an
integration branch had such a semantic conflict, say seen~4, check the
problematic merge out on a detached HEAD, edit the working tree to
fix the semantic conflict, and make a separate commit to record the
fix-up:
$ git checkout seen~4
$ git show -s --pretty=%s ;# double check
Merge branch 'ai/topic' to seen
$ edit
$ git commit -m 'merge-fix/ai/topic' -a
Then make a reference "refs/merge-fix/ai/topic" to point at this
result:
$ git update-ref refs/merge-fix/ai/topic HEAD
Then double check the result by asking Meta/Reintegrate to redo the
merge:
$ git checkout seen~5 ;# the parent of the problem merge
$ echo ai/topic | Meta/Reintegrate
$ git diff seen~4
This time, because you prepared refs/merge-fix/ai/topic, the
resulting merge should have been tweaked to include the fix for the
semantic conflict.
Note that this assumes that the order in which conflicting branches
are merged does not change. If the reason why merging ai/topic
branch needs this merge-fix is because another branch merged earlier
to the integration branch changed the underlying assumption ai/topic
branch made (e.g. ai/topic branch added a site to refer to a
variable, while the other branch renamed that variable and adjusted
existing use sites), and if you changed redo-jch (or redo-seen) script
to merge ai/topic branch before the other branch, then the above
merge-fix should not be applied while merging ai/topic, but should
instead be applied while merging the other branch. You would need
to move the fix to apply to the other branch, perhaps like this:
$ mf=refs/merge-fix
$ git update-ref $mf/$the_other_branch $mf/ai/topic
$ git update-ref -d $mf/ai/topic

How to integrate new subcommands
================================
This is how-to documentation for people who want to add extension
commands to Git. It should be read alongside builtin.h.
Runtime environment
-------------------
Git subcommands are standalone executables that live in the Git exec
path, normally /usr/lib/git-core. The git executable itself is a
thin wrapper that knows where the subcommands live, and runs them by
passing command-line arguments to them.
(If "git foo" is not found in the Git exec path, the wrapper
will look in the rest of your $PATH for it. Thus, it's possible
to write local Git extensions that don't live in system space.)
Implementation languages
------------------------
Most subcommands are written in C or shell. A few are written in
Perl.
While we strongly encourage coding in portable C for portability,
these specific scripting languages are also acceptable. We won't
accept more without a very strong technical case, as we don't want
to broaden the Git suite's required dependencies. Import utilities,
surgical tools, remote helpers and other code at the edges of the
Git suite are more lenient and we allow Python (and even Tcl/tk),
but they should not be used for core functions.
This may change in the future. Especially Python is not allowed in
core because we need better Python integration in the Git Windows
installer before we can be confident people in that environment
won't experience an unacceptably large loss of capability.
C commands are normally written as single modules, named after the
command, that link a collection of functions called libgit. Thus,
your command 'git-foo' would normally be implemented as a single
"git-foo.c" (or "builtin/foo.c" if it is to be linked to the main
binary); this organization makes it easy for people reading the code
to find things.
See the CodingGuidelines document for other guidance on what we consider
good practice in C and shell, and builtin.h for the support
functions available to built-in commands written in C.
What every extension command needs
----------------------------------
You must have a man page, written in asciidoc (this is what Git help
followed by your subcommand name will display). Be aware that there is
a local asciidoc configuration and macros which you should use. It's
often helpful to start by cloning an existing page and replacing the
text content.
You must have a test, written to report in TAP (Test Anything Protocol).
Tests are executables (usually shell scripts) that live in the 't'
subdirectory of the tree. Each test name begins with 't' and a sequence
number that controls where in the test sequence it will be executed;
conventionally the rest of the name stem is that of the command
being tested.
Read the file t/README to learn more about the conventions to be used
in writing tests, and the test support library.
Integrating a command
---------------------
Here are the things you need to do when you want to merge a new
subcommand into the Git tree.
1. Don't forget to sign off your patch!
2. Append your command name to one of the variables BUILTIN_OBJS,
EXTRA_PROGRAMS, SCRIPT_SH, SCRIPT_PERL or SCRIPT_PYTHON.
3. Drop its test in the t directory.
4. If your command is implemented in an interpreted language with a
p-code intermediate form, make sure .gitignore in the main directory
includes a pattern entry that ignores such files. Python .pyc and
.pyo files will already be covered.
5. If your command has any dependency on a particular version of
your language, document it in the INSTALL file.
6. There is a file command-list.txt in the distribution main directory
that categorizes commands by type, so they can be listed in appropriate
subsections in the documentation's summary command list. Add an entry
for yours. To understand the categories, look at command-list.txt
in the main directory. If the new command is part of the typical Git
workflow and you believe it common enough to be mentioned in 'git help',
map this command to a common group in the column [common].
7. Give the maintainer one paragraph to include in the RelNotes file
to describe the new feature; a good place to do so is in the cover
letter [PATCH 0/n].
That's all there is to it.

<h1>How to integrate new subcommands</h1>
</div>
<div id="content">
<div id="preamble">
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>This is how-to documentation for people who want to add extension
commands to Git. It should be read alongside builtin.h.</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="sect1">
<h2 id="_runtime_environment">Runtime environment</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Git subcommands are standalone executables that live in the Git exec
path, normally /usr/lib/git-core. The git executable itself is a
thin wrapper that knows where the subcommands live, and runs them by
passing command-line arguments to them.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>(If "git foo" is not found in the Git exec path, the wrapper
will look in the rest of your $PATH for it. Thus, it&#8217;s possible
to write local Git extensions that don&#8217;t live in system space.)</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="sect1">
<h2 id="_implementation_languages">Implementation languages</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Most subcommands are written in C or shell. A few are written in
Perl.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>While we strongly encourage coding in portable C for portability,
these specific scripting languages are also acceptable. We won&#8217;t
accept more without a very strong technical case, as we don&#8217;t want
to broaden the Git suite&#8217;s required dependencies. Import utilities,
surgical tools, remote helpers and other code at the edges of the
Git suite are more lenient and we allow Python (and even Tcl/tk),
but they should not be used for core functions.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>This may change in the future. Especially Python is not allowed in
core because we need better Python integration in the Git Windows
installer before we can be confident people in that environment
won&#8217;t experience an unacceptably large loss of capability.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>C commands are normally written as single modules, named after the
command, that link a collection of functions called libgit. Thus,
your command <em>git-foo</em> would normally be implemented as a single
"git-foo.c" (or "builtin/foo.c" if it is to be linked to the main
binary); this organization makes it easy for people reading the code
to find things.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>See the CodingGuidelines document for other guidance on what we consider
good practice in C and shell, and builtin.h for the support
functions available to built-in commands written in C.</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="sect1">
<h2 id="_what_every_extension_command_needs">What every extension command needs</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>You must have a man page, written in asciidoc (this is what Git help
followed by your subcommand name will display). Be aware that there is
a local asciidoc configuration and macros which you should use. It&#8217;s
often helpful to start by cloning an existing page and replacing the
text content.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>You must have a test, written to report in TAP (Test Anything Protocol).
Tests are executables (usually shell scripts) that live in the <em>t</em>
subdirectory of the tree. Each test name begins with <em>t</em> and a sequence
number that controls where in the test sequence it will be executed;
conventionally the rest of the name stem is that of the command

Subject: Re: sending changesets from the middle of a git tree
Date: Sun, 14 Aug 2005 18:37:39 -0700
Abstract: In this article, JC talks about how he rebases the
public "seen" branch using the core Git tools when he updates
the "master" branch, and how "rebase" works. Also discussed
is how this applies to individual developers who sends patches
upstream.

How to rebase from an internal branch

--------------------------------------
Exactly my feeling. I was sort of waiting for Catalin to speak
up. With its basing philosophical ancestry on quilt, this is
the kind of task StGIT is designed to do.
I just have done a simpler one, this time using only the core
Git tools.
I had a handful of commits that were ahead of master in 'seen', and I
wanted to add some documentation bypassing my usual habit of
placing new things in 'seen' first. At the beginning, the commit
ancestry graph looked like this:
*"seen" head
master --> #1 --> #2 --> #3
So I started from master, made a bunch of edits, and committed:
$ git checkout master
$ cd Documentation; ed git.txt ...
$ cd ..; git add Documentation/*.txt
$ git commit -s
After the commit, the ancestry graph would look like this:
*"seen" head
master^ --> #1 --> #2 --> #3
\
\---> master
The old master is now master^ (the first parent of the master).
The new master commit holds my documentation updates.
Now I have to deal with "seen" branch.
This is the kind of situation I used to have all the time when
Linus was the maintainer and I was a contributor, when you look
at "master" branch being the "maintainer" branch, and "seen"
branch being the "contributor" branch. Your work started at the
tip of the "maintainer" branch some time ago, you made a lot of
progress in the meantime, and now the maintainer branch has some
other commits you do not have yet. And "git rebase" was written
with the explicit purpose of helping to maintain branches like
"seen". You _could_ merge master to 'seen' and keep going, but if you
eventually want to cherrypick and merge some but not necessarily
all changes back to the master branch, it often makes later
operations for _you_ easier if you rebase (i.e. carry forward
your changes) "seen" rather than merge. So I ran "git rebase":
$ git checkout seen
$ git rebase master seen
What this does is to pick all the commits since the current
branch (note that I now am on "seen" branch) forked from the
master branch, and forward port these changes.
master^ --> #1 --> #2 --> #3
\ *"seen" head
\---> master --> #1' --> #2' --> #3'
The diff between master^ and #1 is applied to master and
committed to create #1' commit with the commit information (log,
author and date) taken from commit #1. On top of that #2' and #3'
commits are made similarly out of #2 and #3 commits.
Old #3 is not recorded in any of the .git/refs/heads/ file
anymore, so after doing this you will have dangling commit if
you ran fsck-cache, which is normal. After testing "seen", you
can run "git prune" to get rid of those original three commits.
While I am talking about "git rebase", I should talk about how
to do cherrypicking using only the core Git tools.
Let's go back to the earlier picture, with different labels.
You, as an individual developer, cloned upstream repository and
made a couple of commits on top of it.
*your "master" head
upstream --> #1 --> #2 --> #3
You would want changes #2 and #3 incorporated in the upstream,
while you feel that #1 may need further improvements. So you
prepare #2 and #3 for e-mail submission.
$ git format-patch master^^ master
This creates two files, 0001-XXXX.patch and 0002-XXXX.patch. Send
them out "To: " your project maintainer and "Cc: " your mailing
list. You could use contributed script git-send-email if
your host has necessary perl modules for this, but your usual
MUA would do as long as it does not corrupt whitespaces in the
patch.
Then you would wait, and you find out that the upstream picked
up your changes, along with other changes.
where *your "master" head
upstream --> #1 --> #2 --> #3
used \
to be \--> #A --> #2' --> #3' --> #B --> #C
*upstream head
The two commits #2' and #3' in the above picture record the same
changes your e-mail submission for #2 and #3 contained, but
probably with the new sign-off line added by the upstream
maintainer and definitely with different committer and ancestry
information, they are different objects from #2 and #3 commits.
You fetch from upstream, but not merge.
$ git fetch upstream
This leaves the updated upstream head in .git/FETCH_HEAD but
does not touch your .git/HEAD or .git/refs/heads/master.
You run "git rebase" now.
$ git rebase FETCH_HEAD master
Earlier, I said that rebase applies all the commits from your
branch on top of the upstream head. Well, I lied. "git rebase"
is a bit smarter than that and notices that #2 and #3 need not
be applied, so it only applies #1. The commit ancestry graph
becomes something like this:
where *your old "master" head
upstream --> #1 --> #2 --> #3
used \ your new "master" head*
to be \--> #A --> #2' --> #3' --> #B --> #C --> #1'
*upstream
head
Again, "git prune" would discard the disused commits #1-#3 and
you continue on starting from the new "master" head, which is
the #1' commit.

&gt; Dear diary, on Sun, Aug 14, 2005 at 09:57:13AM CEST, I got a letter
&gt; where Junio C Hamano &lt;junkio@cox.net&gt; told me that...
&gt;&gt; Linus Torvalds &lt;torvalds@osdl.org&gt; writes:
&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt; &gt; Junio, maybe you want to talk about how you move patches from your
&gt;&gt; &gt; "seen" branch to the real branches.
&gt;&gt;
&gt; Actually, wouldn't this be also precisely for what StGIT is intended to?</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Exactly my feeling. I was sort of waiting for Catalin to speak
up. With its basing philosophical ancestry on quilt, this is
the kind of task StGIT is designed to do.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>I just have done a simpler one, this time using only the core
Git tools.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>I had a handful of commits that were ahead of master in <em>seen</em>, and I
wanted to add some documentation bypassing my usual habit of
placing new things in <em>seen</em> first. At the beginning, the commit
ancestry graph looked like this:</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> *"seen" head
master --&gt; #1 --&gt; #2 --&gt; #3</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>So I started from master, made a bunch of edits, and committed:</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>$ git checkout master
$ cd Documentation; ed git.txt ...
$ cd ..; git add Documentation/*.txt
$ git commit -s</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>After the commit, the ancestry graph would look like this:</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> *"seen" head
master^ --&gt; #1 --&gt; #2 --&gt; #3
\
\---&gt; master</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The old master is now master^ (the first parent of the master).
The new master commit holds my documentation updates.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Now I have to deal with "seen" branch.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>This is the kind of situation I used to have all the time when
Linus was the maintainer and I was a contributor, when you look
at "master" branch being the "maintainer" branch, and "seen"
branch being the "contributor" branch. Your work started at the
tip of the "maintainer" branch some time ago, you made a lot of
progress in the meantime, and now the maintainer branch has some
other commits you do not have yet. And "git rebase" was written
with the explicit purpose of helping to maintain branches like
"seen". You <em>could</em> merge master to <em>seen</em> and keep going, but if you
eventually want to cherrypick and merge some but not necessarily
all changes back to the master branch, it often makes later
operations for <em>you</em> easier if you rebase (i.e. carry forward
your changes) "seen" rather than merge. So I ran "git rebase":</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>$ git checkout seen
$ git rebase master seen</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>What this does is to pick all the commits since the current
branch (note that I now am on "seen" branch) forked from the
master branch, and forward port these changes.</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> master^ --&gt; #1 --&gt; #2 --&gt; #3
\ *"seen" head
\---&gt; master --&gt; #1' --&gt; #2' --&gt; #3'</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The diff between master^ and #1 is applied to master and
committed to create #1' commit with the commit information (log,
author and date) taken from commit #1. On top of that #2' and #3'
commits are made similarly out of #2 and #3 commits.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Old #3 is not recorded in any of the .git/refs/heads/ file
anymore, so after doing this you will have dangling commit if
you ran fsck-cache, which is normal. After testing "seen", you
can run "git prune" to get rid of those original three commits.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>While I am talking about "git rebase", I should talk about how
to do cherrypicking using only the core Git tools.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Let&#8217;s go back to the earlier picture, with different labels.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>You, as an individual developer, cloned upstream repository and
made a couple of commits on top of it.</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> *your "master" head
upstream --&gt; #1 --&gt; #2 --&gt; #3</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>You would want changes #2 and #3 incorporated in the upstream,
while you feel that #1 may need further improvements. So you
prepare #2 and #3 for e-mail submission.</p>
</div>

your host has necessary perl modules for this, but your usual
MUA would do as long as it does not corrupt whitespaces in the

<p>The two commits #2' and #3' in the above picture record the same

<p>Earlier, I said that rebase applies all the commits from your

is a bit smarter than that and notices that #2 and #3 need not

becomes something like this:</p>

you continue on starting from the new "master" head, which is

Subject: [HOWTO] Using post-update hook
Message-ID: <7vy86o6usx.fsf@assigned-by-dhcp.cox.net>
From: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
Date: Fri, 26 Aug 2005 18:19:10 -0700
Abstract: In this how-to article, JC talks about how he
uses the post-update hook to automate Git documentation page
shown at https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/.
Content-type: text/asciidoc
How to rebuild from update hook
===============================
The pages under https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/
are built from Documentation/ directory of the git.git project
and needed to be kept up-to-date. The www.kernel.org/ servers
are mirrored and I was told that the origin of the mirror is on
the machine $some.kernel.org, on which I was given an account
when I took over Git maintainership from Linus.
The directories relevant to this how-to are these two:
/pub/scm/git/git.git/ The public Git repository.
/pub/software/scm/git/docs/ The HTML documentation page.
So I made a repository to generate the documentation under my
home directory over there.
$ cd
$ mkdir doc-git && cd doc-git
$ git clone /pub/scm/git/git.git/ docgen
What needs to happen is to update the $HOME/doc-git/docgen/
working tree, build HTML docs there and install the result in
/pub/software/scm/git/docs/ directory. So I wrote a little
script:
$ cat >dododoc.sh <<\EOF
#!/bin/sh
cd $HOME/doc-git/docgen || exit
unset GIT_DIR
git pull /pub/scm/git/git.git/ master &&
cd Documentation &&
make install-webdoc
EOF
Initially I used to run this by hand whenever I push into the
public Git repository. Then I did a cron job that ran twice a
day. The current round uses the post-update hook mechanism,
like this:
$ cat >/pub/scm/git/git.git/hooks/post-update <<\EOF
#!/bin/sh
#
# An example hook script to prepare a packed repository for use over
# dumb transports.
#
# To enable this hook, make this file executable by "chmod +x post-update".
case " $* " in
*' refs/heads/master '*)
echo $HOME/doc-git/dododoc.sh | at now
;;
esac
exec git-update-server-info
EOF
$ chmod +x /pub/scm/git/git.git/hooks/post-update
There are four things worth mentioning:
- The update-hook is run after the repository accepts a "git
push", under my user privilege. It is given the full names
of refs that have been updated as arguments. My post-update
runs the dododoc.sh script only when the master head is
updated.
- When update-hook is run, GIT_DIR is set to '.' by the calling
receive-pack. This is inherited by the dododoc.sh run via
the "at" command, and needs to be unset; otherwise, "git
pull" it does into $HOME/doc-git/docgen/ repository would not
work correctly.
- The stdout of update hook script is not connected to git
push; I run the heavy part of the command inside "at", to
receive the execution report via e-mail.
- This is still crude and does not protect against simultaneous
make invocations stomping on each other. I would need to add
some locking mechanism for this.

<p>The pages under <a href="https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/" class="bare">https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/</a>
are built from Documentation/ directory of the git.git project
and needed to be kept up-to-date. The www.kernel.org/ servers
are mirrored and I was told that the origin of the mirror is on
the machine $some.kernel.org, on which I was given an account
when I took over Git maintainership from Linus.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The directories relevant to this how-to are these two:</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>/pub/scm/git/git.git/ The public Git repository.
/pub/software/scm/git/docs/ The HTML documentation page.</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>So I made a repository to generate the documentation under my
home directory over there.</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>$ cd
$ mkdir doc-git &amp;&amp; cd doc-git

<div class="paragraph">
<p>What needs to happen is to update the $HOME/doc-git/docgen/
working tree, build HTML docs there and install the result in
/pub/software/scm/git/docs/ directory. So I wrote a little
script:</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>$ cat &gt;dododoc.sh &lt;&lt;\EOF

cd Documentation &amp;&amp;

</div>
<div class="paragraph">

like this:</p>

<div class="content">
<pre>$ cat &gt;/pub/scm/git/git.git/hooks/post-update &lt;&lt;\EOF

<ul>

<p>The update-hook is run after the repository accepts a "git

of refs that have been updated as arguments. My post-update
runs the dododoc.sh script only when the master head is
updated.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>When update-hook is run, GIT_DIR is set to <em>.</em> by the calling
receive-pack. This is inherited by the dododoc.sh run via
the "at" command, and needs to be unset; otherwise, "git
pull" it does into $HOME/doc-git/docgen/ repository would not
work correctly.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>The stdout of update hook script is not connected to git
push; I run the heavy part of the command inside "at", to

How to recover a corrupted blob object
======================================

-----------------------------------------------------------
So exactly *because* the SHA-1 hash is cryptographically secure, the hash
itself doesn't actually tell you anything, in order to fix a corrupt
object you basically have to find the "original source" for it.
The easiest way to do that is almost always to have backups, and find the
same object somewhere else. Backups really are a good idea, and Git makes
it pretty easy (if nothing else, just clone the repository somewhere else,
and make sure that you do *not* use a hard-linked clone, and preferably
not the same disk/machine).
But since you don't seem to have backups right now, the good news is that
especially with a single blob being corrupt, these things *are* somewhat
debuggable.
First off, move the corrupt object away, and *save* it. The most common
cause of corruption so far has been memory corruption, but even so, there
are people who would be interested in seeing the corruption - but it's
basically impossible to judge the corruption until we can also see the
original object, so right now the corrupt object is useless, but it's very
interesting for the future, in the hope that you can re-create a
non-corrupt version.
-----------------------------------------------------------
So:
> ib]$ mv .git/objects/4b/9458b3786228369c63936db65827de3cc06200 ../
-----------------------------------------------------------
This is the right thing to do, although it's usually best to save it under
it's full SHA-1 name (you just dropped the "4b" from the result ;).
Let's see what that tells us:
-----------------------------------------------------------

-----------------------------------------------------------
Ok, I removed the "dangling commit" messages, because they are just
messages about the fact that you probably have rebased etc, so they're not
at all interesting. But what remains is still very useful. In particular,
we now know which tree points to it!
Now you can do
git ls-tree 2d9263c6d23595e7cb2a21e5ebbb53655278dff8
which will show something like
100644 blob 8d14531846b95bfa3564b58ccfb7913a034323b8 .gitignore
100644 blob ebf9bf84da0aab5ed944264a5db2a65fe3a3e883 .mailmap
100644 blob ca442d313d86dc67e0a2e5d584b465bd382cbf5c COPYING
100644 blob ee909f2cc49e54f0799a4739d24c4cb9151ae453 CREDITS
040000 tree 0f5f709c17ad89e72bdbbef6ea221c69807009f6 Documentation

100644 blob 1c7c229a092665b11cd46a25dbd40feeb31661d9 MAINTAINERS
...
and you should now have a line that looks like
10064 blob 4b9458b3786228369c63936db65827de3cc06200 my-magic-file
in the output. This already tells you a *lot* it tells you what file the
corrupt blob came from!
Now, it doesn't tell you quite enough, though: it doesn't tell what
*version* of the file didn't get correctly written! You might be really
lucky, and it may be the version that you already have checked out in your
working tree, in which case fixing this problem is really simple, just do
git hash-object -w my-magic-file
again, and if it outputs the missing SHA-1 (4b945..) you're now all done!
But that's the really lucky case, so let's assume that it was some older
version that was broken. How do you tell which version it was?
The easiest way to do it is to do
git log --raw --all --full-history -- subdirectory/my-magic-file
and that will show you the whole log for that file (please realize that
the tree you had may not be the top-level tree, so you need to figure out
which subdirectory it was in on your own), and because you're asking for
raw output, you'll now get something like
commit abc
Author:
Date:
..
:100644 100644 4b9458b... newsha... M somedirectory/my-magic-file
commit xyz
Author:
Date:
..
:100644 100644 oldsha... 4b9458b... M somedirectory/my-magic-file
and this actually tells you what the *previous* and *subsequent* versions
of that file were! So now you can look at those ("oldsha" and "newsha"
respectively), and hopefully you have done commits often, and can
re-create the missing my-magic-file version by looking at those older and
newer versions!
If you can do that, you can now recreate the missing object with
git hash-object -w <recreated-file>
and your repository is good again!
(Btw, you could have ignored the fsck, and started with doing a
git log --raw --all
and just looked for the sha of the missing object (4b9458b..) in that
whole thing. It's up to you - Git does *have* a lot of information, it is
just missing one particular blob version.
Trying to recreate trees and especially commits is *much* harder. So you
were lucky that it's a blob. It's quite possible that you can recreate the
thing.

<div class="paragraph">
<p>So exactly <strong>because</strong> the SHA-1 hash is cryptographically secure, the hash
itself doesn&#8217;t actually tell you anything, in order to fix a corrupt
object you basically have to find the "original source" for it.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The easiest way to do that is almost always to have backups, and find the
same object somewhere else. Backups really are a good idea, and Git makes
it pretty easy (if nothing else, just clone the repository somewhere else,
and make sure that you do <strong>not</strong> use a hard-linked clone, and preferably
not the same disk/machine).</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>But since you don&#8217;t seem to have backups right now, the good news is that
especially with a single blob being corrupt, these things <strong>are</strong> somewhat
debuggable.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>First off, move the corrupt object away, and <strong>save</strong> it. The most common
cause of corruption so far has been memory corruption, but even so, there
are people who would be interested in seeing the corruption - but it&#8217;s
basically impossible to judge the corruption until we can also see the
original object, so right now the corrupt object is useless, but it&#8217;s very
interesting for the future, in the hope that you can re-create a
non-corrupt version.</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>So:
&gt; ib]$ mv .git/objects/4b/9458b3786228369c63936db65827de3cc06200 ../</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>This is the right thing to do, although it&#8217;s usually best to save it under
it&#8217;s full SHA-1 name (you just dropped the "4b" from the result ;).</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Let&#8217;s see what that tells us:</p>

<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>&gt; ib]$ git-fsck --full

<div class="paragraph">
<p>Ok, I removed the "dangling commit" messages, because they are just
messages about the fact that you probably have rebased etc, so they&#8217;re not
at all interesting. But what remains is still very useful. In particular,
we now know which tree points to it!</p>

<p>Now, it doesn&#8217;t tell you quite enough, though: it doesn&#8217;t tell what
<strong>version</strong> of the file didn&#8217;t get correctly written! You might be really
lucky, and it may be the version that you already have checked out in your

<p>But that&#8217;s the really lucky case, so let&#8217;s assume that it was some older

<div class="paragraph">
<p>and that will show you the whole log for that file (please realize that
the tree you had may not be the top-level tree, so you need to figure out
which subdirectory it was in on your own), and because you&#8217;re asking for

<div class="paragraph">
<p>and this actually tells you what the <strong>previous</strong> and <strong>subsequent</strong> versions
of that file were! So now you can look at those ("oldsha" and "newsha"
respectively), and hopefully you have done commits often, and can
re-create the missing my-magic-file version by looking at those older and
newer versions!</p>

<p>and just looked for the sha of the missing object (4b9458b..) in that

Subject: pack corruption post-mortem
Abstract: Recovering a corrupted object when no good copy is available.
Content-type: text/asciidoc
How to recover an object from scratch
=====================================
I was recently presented with a repository with a corrupted packfile,
and was asked if the data was recoverable. This post-mortem describes
the steps I took to investigate and fix the problem. I thought others
might find the process interesting, and it might help somebody in the
same situation.
********************************

the much easier case where you can get the corrupted object from
elsewhere, see link:recover-corrupted-blob-object.html[this howto].
********************************
I started with an fsck, which found a problem with exactly one object
(I've used $pack and $obj below to keep the output readable, and also
because I'll refer to them later):
-----------
$ git fsck
error: $pack SHA1 checksum mismatch
error: index CRC mismatch for object $obj from $pack at offset 51653873
error: inflate: data stream error (incorrect data check)
error: cannot unpack $obj from $pack at offset 51653873
-----------
The pack checksum failing means a byte is munged somewhere, and it is
presumably in the object mentioned (since both the index checksum and
zlib were failing).
Reading the zlib source code, I found that "incorrect data check" means
that the adler-32 checksum at the end of the zlib data did not match the
inflated data. So stepping the data through zlib would not help, as it
did not fail until the very end, when we realize the CRC does not match.
The problematic bytes could be anywhere in the object data.
The first thing I did was pull the broken data out of the packfile. I
needed to know how big the object was, which I found out with:
------------
$ git show-index <$idx | cut -d' ' -f1 | sort -n | grep -A1 51653873
51653873
51664736
------------
Show-index gives us the list of objects and their offsets. We throw away
everything but the offsets, and then sort them so that our interesting
offset (which we got from the fsck output above) is followed immediately
by the offset of the next object. Now we know that the object data is
10863 bytes long, and we can grab it with:
------------
dd if=$pack of=object bs=1 skip=51653873 count=10863
------------
I inspected a hexdump of the data, looking for any obvious bogosity
(e.g., a 4K run of zeroes would be a good sign of filesystem
corruption). But everything looked pretty reasonable.
Note that the "object" file isn't fit for feeding straight to zlib; it
has the git packed object header, which is variable-length. We want to
strip that off so we can start playing with the zlib data directly. You
can either work your way through it manually (the format is described in
linkgit:gitformat-pack[5]),
or you can walk through it in a debugger. I did the latter, creating a
valid pack like:
------------
# pack magic and version
printf 'PACK\0\0\0\2' >tmp.pack
# pack has one object
printf '\0\0\0\1' >>tmp.pack
# now add our object data
cat object >>tmp.pack
# and then append the pack trailer
/path/to/git.git/t/helper/test-tool sha1 -b <tmp.pack >trailer
cat trailer >>tmp.pack
------------
and then running "git index-pack tmp.pack" in the debugger (stop at
unpack_raw_entry). Doing this, I found that there were 3 bytes of header
(and the header itself had a sane type and size). So I stripped those
off with:
------------
dd if=object of=zlib bs=1 skip=3
------------
I ran the result through zlib's inflate using a custom C program. And
while it did report the error, I did get the right number of output
bytes (i.e., it matched git's size header that we decoded above). But
feeding the result back to "git hash-object" didn't produce the same
sha1. So there were some wrong bytes, but I didn't know which. The file
happened to be C source code, so I hoped I could notice something
obviously wrong with it, but I didn't. I even got it to compile!
I also tried comparing it to other versions of the same path in the
repository, hoping that there would be some part of the diff that didn't
make sense. Unfortunately, this happened to be the only revision of this
particular file in the repository, so I had nothing to compare against.
So I took a different approach. Working under the guess that the
corruption was limited to a single byte, I wrote a program to munge each
byte individually, and try inflating the result. Since the object was
only 10K compressed, that worked out to about 2.5M attempts, which took
a few minutes.
The program I used is here:
----------------------------------------------
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <signal.h>
#include <zlib.h>
static int try_zlib(unsigned char *buf, int len)
{
/* make this absurdly large so we don't have to loop */
static unsigned char out[1024*1024];
z_stream z;
int ret;
memset(&z, 0, sizeof(z));
inflateInit(&z);
z.next_in = buf;
z.avail_in = len;
z.next_out = out;
z.avail_out = sizeof(out);
ret = inflate(&z, 0);
inflateEnd(&z);
return ret >= 0;
}
/* eye candy */
static int counter = 0;
static void progress(int sig)
{
fprintf(stderr, "\r%d", counter);
alarm(1);
}
int main(void)
{
/* oversized so we can read the whole buffer in */
unsigned char buf[1024*1024];
int len;
unsigned i, j;
signal(SIGALRM, progress);
alarm(1);
len = read(0, buf, sizeof(buf));
for (i = 0; i < len; i++) {
unsigned char c = buf[i];
for (j = 0; j <= 0xff; j++) {
buf[i] = j;
counter++;
if (try_zlib(buf, len))
printf("i=%d, j=%x\n", i, j);
}
buf[i] = c;
}
alarm(0);
fprintf(stderr, "\n");
return 0;
}
----------------------------------------------
I compiled and ran with:
-------
gcc -Wall -Werror -O3 munge.c -o munge -lz
./munge <zlib
-------
There were a few false positives early on (if you write "no data" in the
zlib header, zlib thinks it's just fine :) ). But I got a hit about
halfway through:
-------
i=5642, j=c7
-------
I let it run to completion, and got a few more hits at the end (where it
was munging the CRC to match our broken data). So there was a good
chance this middle hit was the source of the problem.
I confirmed by tweaking the byte in a hex editor, zlib inflating the
result (no errors!), and then piping the output into "git hash-object",
which reported the sha1 of the broken object. Success!
I fixed the packfile itself with:
-------
chmod +w $pack
printf '\xc7' | dd of=$pack bs=1 seek=51659518 conv=notrunc
chmod -w $pack
-------
The `\xc7` comes from the replacement byte our "munge" program found.
The offset 51659518 is derived by taking the original object offset
(51653873), adding the replacement offset found by "munge" (5642), and
then adding back in the 3 bytes of git header we stripped.
After that, "git fsck" ran clean.
As for the corruption itself, I was lucky that it was indeed a single
byte. In fact, it turned out to be a single bit. The byte 0xc7 was
corrupted to 0xc5. So presumably it was caused by faulty hardware, or a
cosmic ray.
And the aborted attempt to look at the inflated output to see what was
wrong? I could have looked forever and never found it. Here's the diff
between what the corrupted data inflates to, versus the real data:
--------------
- cp = strtok (arg, "+");
+ cp = strtok (arg, ".");
--------------
It tweaked one byte and still ended up as valid, readable C that just
happened to do something totally different! One takeaway is that on a
less unlucky day, looking at the zlib output might have actually been
helpful, as most random changes would actually break the C code.
But more importantly, git's hashing and checksumming noticed a problem
that easily could have gone undetected in another system. The result
still compiled, but would have caused an interesting bug (that would
have been blamed on some random commit).
The adventure continues...
--------------------------
I ended up doing this again! Same entity, new hardware. The assumption
at this point is that the old disk corrupted the packfile, and then the
corruption was migrated to the new hardware (because it was done by
rsync or similar, and no fsck was done at the time of migration).
This time, the affected blob was over 20 megabytes, which was far too
large to do a brute-force on. I followed the instructions above to
create the `zlib` file. I then used the `inflate` program below to pull
the corrupted data from that. Examining that output gave me a hint about
where in the file the corruption was. But now I was working with the
file itself, not the zlib contents. So knowing the sha1 of the object
and the approximate area of the corruption, I used the `sha1-munge`
program below to brute-force the correct byte.
Here's the inflate program (it's essentially `gunzip` but without the
`.gz` header processing):
--------------------------
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <zlib.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
/*
* oversized so we can read the whole buffer in;
* this could actually be switched to streaming
* to avoid any memory limitations
*/
static unsigned char buf[25 * 1024 * 1024];
static unsigned char out[25 * 1024 * 1024];
int len;
z_stream z;
int ret;
len = read(0, buf, sizeof(buf));
memset(&z, 0, sizeof(z));
inflateInit(&z);
z.next_in = buf;
z.avail_in = len;
z.next_out = out;
z.avail_out = sizeof(out);
ret = inflate(&z, 0);
if (ret != Z_OK && ret != Z_STREAM_END)
fprintf(stderr, "initial inflate failed (%d)\n", ret);
fprintf(stderr, "outputting %lu bytes", z.total_out);
fwrite(out, 1, z.total_out, stdout);
return 0;
}
--------------------------
And here is the `sha1-munge` program:
--------------------------

#include <signal.h>
#include <openssl/sha.h>

<h1>How to recover an object from scratch</h1>
</div>
<div id="content">
<div id="preamble">
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>I was recently presented with a repository with a corrupted packfile,
and was asked if the data was recoverable. This post-mortem describes
the steps I took to investigate and fix the problem. I thought others
might find the process interesting, and it might help somebody in the
same situation.</p>
</div>
<div class="sidebarblock">
<div class="content">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Note: In this case, no good copy of the repository was available. For
the much easier case where you can get the corrupted object from
elsewhere, see <a href="recover-corrupted-blob-object.html">this howto</a>.</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>I started with an fsck, which found a problem with exactly one object
(I&#8217;ve used $pack and $obj below to keep the output readable, and also
because I&#8217;ll refer to them later):</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> $ git fsck
error: $pack SHA1 checksum mismatch
error: index CRC mismatch for object $obj from $pack at offset 51653873
error: inflate: data stream error (incorrect data check)
error: cannot unpack $obj from $pack at offset 51653873</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The pack checksum failing means a byte is munged somewhere, and it is
presumably in the object mentioned (since both the index checksum and
zlib were failing).</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Reading the zlib source code, I found that "incorrect data check" means
that the adler-32 checksum at the end of the zlib data did not match the
inflated data. So stepping the data through zlib would not help, as it
did not fail until the very end, when we realize the CRC does not match.
The problematic bytes could be anywhere in the object data.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The first thing I did was pull the broken data out of the packfile. I
needed to know how big the object was, which I found out with:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> $ git show-index &lt;$idx | cut -d' ' -f1 | sort -n | grep -A1 51653873
51653873
51664736</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Show-index gives us the list of objects and their offsets. We throw away
everything but the offsets, and then sort them so that our interesting
offset (which we got from the fsck output above) is followed immediately
by the offset of the next object. Now we know that the object data is
10863 bytes long, and we can grab it with:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> dd if=$pack of=object bs=1 skip=51653873 count=10863</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>I inspected a hexdump of the data, looking for any obvious bogosity
(e.g., a 4K run of zeroes would be a good sign of filesystem
corruption). But everything looked pretty reasonable.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Note that the "object" file isn&#8217;t fit for feeding straight to zlib; it
has the git packed object header, which is variable-length. We want to
strip that off so we can start playing with the zlib data directly. You
can either work your way through it manually (the format is described in
<a href="../gitformat-pack.html">gitformat-pack(5)</a>),
or you can walk through it in a debugger. I did the latter, creating a
valid pack like:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> # pack magic and version
printf 'PACK\0\0\0\2' &gt;tmp.pack
# pack has one object
printf '\0\0\0\1' &gt;&gt;tmp.pack
# now add our object data
cat object &gt;&gt;tmp.pack
# and then append the pack trailer
/path/to/git.git/t/helper/test-tool sha1 -b &lt;tmp.pack &gt;trailer
cat trailer &gt;&gt;tmp.pack</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>and then running "git index-pack tmp.pack" in the debugger (stop at
unpack_raw_entry). Doing this, I found that there were 3 bytes of header
(and the header itself had a sane type and size). So I stripped those
off with:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> dd if=object of=zlib bs=1 skip=3</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>I ran the result through zlib&#8217;s inflate using a custom C program. And
while it did report the error, I did get the right number of output
bytes (i.e., it matched git&#8217;s size header that we decoded above). But
feeding the result back to "git hash-object" didn&#8217;t produce the same
sha1. So there were some wrong bytes, but I didn&#8217;t know which. The file
happened to be C source code, so I hoped I could notice something
obviously wrong with it, but I didn&#8217;t. I even got it to compile!</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>I also tried comparing it to other versions of the same path in the
repository, hoping that there would be some part of the diff that didn&#8217;t
make sense. Unfortunately, this happened to be the only revision of this
particular file in the repository, so I had nothing to compare against.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>So I took a different approach. Working under the guess that the
corruption was limited to a single byte, I wrote a program to munge each
byte individually, and try inflating the result. Since the object was
only 10K compressed, that worked out to about 2.5M attempts, which took
a few minutes.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The program I used is here:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>#include &lt;stdio.h&gt;
#include &lt;unistd.h&gt;
#include &lt;string.h&gt;

{
/* make this absurdly large so we don't have to loop */
static unsigned char out[1024*1024];

int ret;
memset(&amp;z, 0, sizeof(z));
inflateInit(&amp;z);
z.next_in = buf;
z.avail_in = len;
z.next_out = out;
z.avail_out = sizeof(out);
ret = inflate(&amp;z, 0);
inflateEnd(&amp;z);
return ret &gt;= 0;
}
/* eye candy */
static int counter = 0;
static void progress(int sig)
{
fprintf(stderr, "\r%d", counter);
alarm(1);
}
int main(void)
{
/* oversized so we can read the whole buffer in */
unsigned char buf[1024*1024];
int len;
unsigned i, j;
signal(SIGALRM, progress);
alarm(1);
len = read(0, buf, sizeof(buf));
for (i = 0; i &lt; len; i++) {
unsigned char c = buf[i];
for (j = 0; j &lt;= 0xff; j++) {
buf[i] = j;
counter++;
if (try_zlib(buf, len))
printf("i=%d, j=%x\n", i, j);
}
buf[i] = c;
}
alarm(0);
fprintf(stderr, "\n");
return 0;
}</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>I compiled and ran with:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> gcc -Wall -Werror -O3 munge.c -o munge -lz
./munge &lt;zlib</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>There were a few false positives early on (if you write "no data" in the
zlib header, zlib thinks it&#8217;s just fine :) ). But I got a hit about
halfway through:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> i=5642, j=c7</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>I let it run to completion, and got a few more hits at the end (where it
was munging the CRC to match our broken data). So there was a good
chance this middle hit was the source of the problem.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>I confirmed by tweaking the byte in a hex editor, zlib inflating the
result (no errors!), and then piping the output into "git hash-object",
which reported the sha1 of the broken object. Success!</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>I fixed the packfile itself with:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> chmod +w $pack
printf '\xc7' | dd of=$pack bs=1 seek=51659518 conv=notrunc
chmod -w $pack</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The \xc7 comes from the replacement byte our "munge" program found.
The offset 51659518 is derived by taking the original object offset
(51653873), adding the replacement offset found by "munge" (5642), and
then adding back in the 3 bytes of git header we stripped.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>After that, "git fsck" ran clean.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>As for the corruption itself, I was lucky that it was indeed a single
byte. In fact, it turned out to be a single bit. The byte 0xc7 was
corrupted to 0xc5. So presumably it was caused by faulty hardware, or a
cosmic ray.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>And the aborted attempt to look at the inflated output to see what was
wrong? I could have looked forever and never found it. Here&#8217;s the diff
between what the corrupted data inflates to, versus the real data:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> - cp = strtok (arg, "+");
+ cp = strtok (arg, ".");</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>It tweaked one byte and still ended up as valid, readable C that just
happened to do something totally different! One takeaway is that on a
less unlucky day, looking at the zlib output might have actually been
helpful, as most random changes would actually break the C code.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>But more importantly, git&#8217;s hashing and checksumming noticed a problem
that easily could have gone undetected in another system. The result
still compiled, but would have caused an interesting bug (that would
have been blamed on some random commit).</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="sect1">
<h2 id="_the_adventure_continues">The adventure continues&#8230;&#8203;</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>I ended up doing this again! Same entity, new hardware. The assumption
at this point is that the old disk corrupted the packfile, and then the
corruption was migrated to the new hardware (because it was done by
rsync or similar, and no fsck was done at the time of migration).</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>This time, the affected blob was over 20 megabytes, which was far too
large to do a brute-force on. I followed the instructions above to
create the <code>zlib</code> file. I then used the <code>inflate</code> program below to pull
the corrupted data from that. Examining that output gave me a hint about
where in the file the corruption was. But now I was working with the
file itself, not the zlib contents. So knowing the sha1 of the object
and the approximate area of the corruption, I used the <code>sha1-munge</code>
program below to brute-force the correct byte.</p>

From: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>, Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
Subject: Re: Odd merge behaviour involving reverts
Abstract: Sometimes a branch that was already merged to the mainline
is later found to be faulty. Linus and Junio give guidance on
recovering from such a premature merge and continuing development
after the offending branch is fixed.

How to revert a faulty merge
============================
Alan <alan@clueserver.org> said:
I have a master branch. We have a branch off of that that some
developers are doing work on. They claim it is ready. We merge it
into the master branch. It breaks something so we revert the merge.
They make changes to the code. they get it to a point where they say
it is ok and we merge again.
When examined, we find that code changes made before the revert are
not in the master branch, but code changes after are in the master
branch.
and asked for help recovering from this situation.
The history immediately after the "revert of the merge" would look like
this:
---o---o---o---M---x---x---W
/
---A---B
where A and B are on the side development that was not so good, M is the
merge that brings these premature changes into the mainline, x are changes
unrelated to what the side branch did and already made on the mainline,
and W is the "revert of the merge M" (doesn't W look M upside down?).
IOW, `"diff W^..W"` is similar to `"diff -R M^..M"`.
Such a "revert" of a merge can be made with:
$ git revert -m 1 M
After the developers of the side branch fix their mistakes, the history
may look like this:
---o---o---o---M---x---x---W---x
/
---A---B-------------------C---D
where C and D are to fix what was broken in A and B, and you may already
have some other changes on the mainline after W.
If you merge the updated side branch (with D at its tip), none of the
changes made in A or B will be in the result, because they were reverted
by W. That is what Alan saw.
Linus explains the situation:
Reverting a regular commit just effectively undoes what that commit
did, and is fairly straightforward. But reverting a merge commit also
undoes the _data_ that the commit changed, but it does absolutely
nothing to the effects on _history_ that the merge had.
So the merge will still exist, and it will still be seen as joining
the two branches together, and future merges will see that merge as
the last shared state - and the revert that reverted the merge brought
in will not affect that at all.
So a "revert" undoes the data changes, but it's very much _not_ an
"undo" in the sense that it doesn't undo the effects of a commit on
the repository history.
So if you think of "revert" as "undo", then you're going to always
miss this part of reverts. Yes, it undoes the data, but no, it doesn't
undo history.
In such a situation, you would want to first revert the previous revert,
which would make the history look like this:
---o---o---o---M---x---x---W---x---Y
/
---A---B-------------------C---D
where Y is the revert of W. Such a "revert of the revert" can be done
with:
$ git revert W
This history would (ignoring possible conflicts between what W and W..Y
changed) be equivalent to not having W or Y at all in the history:
---o---o---o---M---x---x-------x----
/
---A---B-------------------C---D
and merging the side branch again will not have conflict arising from an
earlier revert and revert of the revert.
---o---o---o---M---x---x-------x-------*
/ /
---A---B-------------------C---D
Of course the changes made in C and D still can conflict with what was
done by any of the x, but that is just a normal merge conflict.
On the other hand, if the developers of the side branch discarded their
faulty A and B, and redone the changes on top of the updated mainline
after the revert, the history would have looked like this:
---o---o---o---M---x---x---W---x---x
/ \
---A---B A'--B'--C'
If you reverted the revert in such a case as in the previous example:
---o---o---o---M---x---x---W---x---x---Y---*
/ \ /
---A---B A'--B'--C'
where Y is the revert of W, A' and B' are rerolled A and B, and there may
also be a further fix-up C' on the side branch. `"diff Y^..Y"` is similar
to `"diff -R W^..W"` (which in turn means it is similar to `"diff M^..M"`),
and `"diff A'^..C'"` by definition would be similar but different from that,
because it is a rerolled series of the earlier change. There will be a
lot of overlapping changes that result in conflicts. So do not do "revert
of revert" blindly without thinking..
---o---o---o---M---x---x---W---x---x
/ \
---A---B A'--B'--C'
In the history with rebased side branch, W (and M) are behind the merge
base of the updated branch and the tip of the mainline, and they should
merge without the past faulty merge and its revert getting in the way.
To recap, these are two very different scenarios, and they want two very
different resolution strategies:
- If the faulty side branch was fixed by adding corrections on top, then
doing a revert of the previous revert would be the right thing to do.
- If the faulty side branch whose effects were discarded by an earlier
revert of a merge was rebuilt from scratch (i.e. rebasing and fixing,
as you seem to have interpreted), then re-merging the result without
doing anything else fancy would be the right thing to do.
(See the ADDENDUM below for how to rebuild a branch from scratch
without changing its original branching-off point.)
However, there are things to keep in mind when reverting a merge (and
reverting such a revert).
For example, think about what reverting a merge (and then reverting the
revert) does to bisectability. Ignore the fact that the revert of a revert
is undoing it - just think of it as a "single commit that does a lot".
Because that is what it does.
When you have a problem you are chasing down, and you hit a "revert this
merge", what you're hitting is essentially a single commit that contains
all the changes (but obviously in reverse) of all the commits that got
merged. So it's debugging hell, because now you don't have lots of small
changes that you can try to pinpoint which _part_ of it changes.
But does it all work? Sure it does. You can revert a merge, and from a
purely technical angle, Git did it very naturally and had no real
troubles. It just considered it a change from "state before merge" to
"state after merge", and that was it. Nothing complicated, nothing odd,
nothing really dangerous. Git will do it without even thinking about it.
So from a technical angle, there's nothing wrong with reverting a merge,
but from a workflow angle it's something that you generally should try to
avoid.
If at all possible, for example, if you find a problem that got merged
into the main tree, rather than revert the merge, try _really_ hard to
bisect the problem down into the branch you merged, and just fix it, or
try to revert the individual commit that caused it.
Yes, it's more complex, and no, it's not always going to work (sometimes
the answer is: "oops, I really shouldn't have merged it, because it wasn't
ready yet, and I really need to undo _all_ of the merge"). So then you
really should revert the merge, but when you want to re-do the merge, you
now need to do it by reverting the revert.
ADDENDUM
Sometimes you have to rewrite one of a topic branch's commits *and* you can't
change the topic's branching-off point. Consider the following situation:
P---o---o---M---x---x---W---x
\ /
A---B---C
where commit W reverted commit M because it turned out that commit B was wrong
and needs to be rewritten, but you need the rewritten topic to still branch
from commit P (perhaps P is a branching-off point for yet another branch, and
you want be able to merge the topic into both branches).
The natural thing to do in this case is to checkout the A-B-C branch and use
"rebase -i P" to change commit B. However this does not rewrite commit A,
because "rebase -i" by default fast-forwards over any initial commits selected
with the "pick" command. So you end up with this:
P---o---o---M---x---x---W---x
\ /
A---B---C <-- old branch
\
B'---C' <-- naively rewritten branch
To merge A-B'-C' into the mainline branch you would still have to first revert
commit W in order to pick up the changes in A, but then it's likely that the
changes in B' will conflict with the original B changes re-introduced by the
reversion of W.
However, you can avoid these problems if you recreate the entire branch,
including commit A:
A'---B'---C' <-- completely rewritten branch
/
P---o---o---M---x---x---W---x
\ /
A---B---C
You can merge A'-B'-C' into the mainline branch without worrying about first
reverting W. Mainline's history would look like this:
A'---B'---C'------------------
/ \
P---o---o---M---x---x---W---x---M2
\ /
A---B---C
But if you don't actually need to change commit A, then you need some way to
recreate it as a new commit with the same changes in it. The rebase command's
--no-ff option provides a way to do this:
$ git rebase [-i] --no-ff P
The --no-ff option creates a new branch A'-B'-C' with all-new commits (all the
SHA IDs will be different) even if in the interactive case you only actually
modify commit B. You can then merge this new branch directly into the mainline
branch and be sure you'll get all of the branch's changes.
You can also use --no-ff in cases where you just add extra commits to the topic
to fix it up. Let's revisit the situation discussed at the start of this howto:
P---o---o---M---x---x---W---x
\ /
A---B---C----------------D---E <-- fixed-up topic branch
At this point, you can use --no-ff to recreate the topic branch:
$ git checkout E
$ git rebase --no-ff P
yielding
A'---B'---C'------------D'---E' <-- recreated topic branch
/
P---o---o---M---x---x---W---x
\ /
A---B---C----------------D---E
You can merge the recreated branch into the mainline without reverting commit W,
and mainline's history will look like this:
A'---B'---C'------------D'---E'
/ \
P---o---o---M---x---x---W---x---M2
\ /
A---B---C

<h1>How to revert a faulty merge</h1>
</div>
<div id="content">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Alan &lt;<a href="mailto:alan@clueserver.org">alan@clueserver.org</a>&gt; said:</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>I have a master branch. We have a branch off of that that some
developers are doing work on. They claim it is ready. We merge it
into the master branch. It breaks something so we revert the merge.
They make changes to the code. they get it to a point where they say
it is ok and we merge again.</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>When examined, we find that code changes made before the revert are
not in the master branch, but code changes after are in the master
branch.</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>and asked for help recovering from this situation.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The history immediately after the "revert of the merge" would look like
this:</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>---o---o---o---M---x---x---W
/
---A---B</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>where A and B are on the side development that was not so good, M is the
merge that brings these premature changes into the mainline, x are changes
unrelated to what the side branch did and already made on the mainline,
and W is the "revert of the merge M" (doesn&#8217;t W look M upside down?).
IOW, "diff <code>W^</code><code>..</code><code>W</code>" is similar to "diff <code>-R</code> <code>M^</code><code>..</code><code>M</code>".</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Such a "revert" of a merge can be made with:</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>$ git revert -m 1 M</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>After the developers of the side branch fix their mistakes, the history
may look like this:</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>---o---o---o---M---x---x---W---x
/
---A---B-------------------C---D</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>where C and D are to fix what was broken in A and B, and you may already
have some other changes on the mainline after W.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>If you merge the updated side branch (with D at its tip), none of the
changes made in A or B will be in the result, because they were reverted
by W. That is what Alan saw.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Linus explains the situation:</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>Reverting a regular commit just effectively undoes what that commit
did, and is fairly straightforward. But reverting a merge commit also
undoes the _data_ that the commit changed, but it does absolutely
nothing to the effects on _history_ that the merge had.</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>So the merge will still exist, and it will still be seen as joining
the two branches together, and future merges will see that merge as
the last shared state - and the revert that reverted the merge brought
in will not affect that at all.</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>So a "revert" undoes the data changes, but it's very much _not_ an
"undo" in the sense that it doesn't undo the effects of a commit on
the repository history.</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>So if you think of "revert" as "undo", then you're going to always
miss this part of reverts. Yes, it undoes the data, but no, it doesn't
undo history.</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>In such a situation, you would want to first revert the previous revert,
which would make the history look like this:</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>---o---o---o---M---x---x---W---x---Y
/
---A---B-------------------C---D</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>where Y is the revert of W. Such a "revert of the revert" can be done
with:</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>$ git revert W</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>This history would (ignoring possible conflicts between what W and W..Y
changed) be equivalent to not having W or Y at all in the history:</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>---o---o---o---M---x---x-------x----
/
---A---B-------------------C---D</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>and merging the side branch again will not have conflict arising from an
earlier revert and revert of the revert.</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>---o---o---o---M---x---x-------x-------*
/ /
---A---B-------------------C---D</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Of course the changes made in C and D still can conflict with what was
done by any of the x, but that is just a normal merge conflict.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>On the other hand, if the developers of the side branch discarded their
faulty A and B, and redone the changes on top of the updated mainline
after the revert, the history would have looked like this:</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>---o---o---o---M---x---x---W---x---x
/ \
---A---B A'--B'--C'</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>If you reverted the revert in such a case as in the previous example:</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>---o---o---o---M---x---x---W---x---x---Y---*
/ \ /
---A---B A'--B'--C'</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>where Y is the revert of W, A' and B' are rerolled A and B, and there may
also be a further fix-up C' on the side branch. "diff <code>Y^</code><code>..</code><code>Y</code>" is similar
to "diff <code>-R</code> <code>W^</code><code>..</code><code>W</code>" (which in turn means it is similar to "diff <code>M^</code><code>..</code><code>M</code>"),
and "diff <code>A</code>'^<code>..</code><code>C</code>'" by definition would be similar but different from that,
because it is a rerolled series of the earlier change. There will be a
lot of overlapping changes that result in conflicts. So do not do "revert
of revert" blindly without thinking..</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>---o---o---o---M---x---x---W---x---x
/ \
---A---B A'--B'--C'</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>In the history with rebased side branch, W (and M) are behind the merge
base of the updated branch and the tip of the mainline, and they should
merge without the past faulty merge and its revert getting in the way.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>To recap, these are two very different scenarios, and they want two very
different resolution strategies:</p>
</div>
<div class="ulist">
<ul>
<li>
<p>If the faulty side branch was fixed by adding corrections on top, then
doing a revert of the previous revert would be the right thing to do.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>If the faulty side branch whose effects were discarded by an earlier
revert of a merge was rebuilt from scratch (i.e. rebasing and fixing,
as you seem to have interpreted), then re-merging the result without
doing anything else fancy would be the right thing to do.
(See the ADDENDUM below for how to rebuild a branch from scratch
without changing its original branching-off point.)</p>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>However, there are things to keep in mind when reverting a merge (and
reverting such a revert).</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>For example, think about what reverting a merge (and then reverting the
revert) does to bisectability. Ignore the fact that the revert of a revert
is undoing it - just think of it as a "single commit that does a lot".
Because that is what it does.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>When you have a problem you are chasing down, and you hit a "revert this
merge", what you&#8217;re hitting is essentially a single commit that contains
all the changes (but obviously in reverse) of all the commits that got
merged. So it&#8217;s debugging hell, because now you don&#8217;t have lots of small
changes that you can try to pinpoint which <em>part</em> of it changes.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>But does it all work? Sure it does. You can revert a merge, and from a
purely technical angle, Git did it very naturally and had no real
troubles. It just considered it a change from "state before merge" to
"state after merge", and that was it. Nothing complicated, nothing odd,
nothing really dangerous. Git will do it without even thinking about it.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>So from a technical angle, there&#8217;s nothing wrong with reverting a merge,
but from a workflow angle it&#8217;s something that you generally should try to
avoid.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>If at all possible, for example, if you find a problem that got merged
into the main tree, rather than revert the merge, try <em>really</em> hard to
bisect the problem down into the branch you merged, and just fix it, or
try to revert the individual commit that caused it.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Yes, it&#8217;s more complex, and no, it&#8217;s not always going to work (sometimes
the answer is: "oops, I really shouldn&#8217;t have merged it, because it wasn&#8217;t
ready yet, and I really need to undo <em>all</em> of the merge"). So then you
really should revert the merge, but when you want to re-do the merge, you
now need to do it by reverting the revert.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>ADDENDUM</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Sometimes you have to rewrite one of a topic branch&#8217;s commits <strong>and</strong> you can&#8217;t
change the topic&#8217;s branching-off point. Consider the following situation:</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>P---o---o---M---x---x---W---x
\ /
A---B---C</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>where commit W reverted commit M because it turned out that commit B was wrong
and needs to be rewritten, but you need the rewritten topic to still branch
from commit P (perhaps P is a branching-off point for yet another branch, and
you want be able to merge the topic into both branches).</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The natural thing to do in this case is to checkout the A-B-C branch and use
"rebase -i P" to change commit B. However this does not rewrite commit A,
because "rebase -i" by default fast-forwards over any initial commits selected
with the "pick" command. So you end up with this:</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>P---o---o---M---x---x---W---x
\ /
A---B---C &lt;-- old branch
\
B'---C' &lt;-- naively rewritten branch</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>To merge A-B'-C' into the mainline branch you would still have to first revert
commit W in order to pick up the changes in A, but then it&#8217;s likely that the
changes in B' will conflict with the original B changes re-introduced by the
reversion of W.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>However, you can avoid these problems if you recreate the entire branch,
including commit A:</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> A'---B'---C' &lt;-- completely rewritten branch
/
P---o---o---M---x---x---W---x
\ /
A---B---C</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>You can merge A'-B'-C' into the mainline branch without worrying about first
reverting W. Mainline&#8217;s history would look like this:</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> A'---B'---C'------------------
/ \
P---o---o---M---x---x---W---x---M2
\ /
A---B---C</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>But if you don&#8217;t actually need to change commit A, then you need some way to
recreate it as a new commit with the same changes in it. The rebase command&#8217;s
--no-ff option provides a way to do this:</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>$ git rebase [-i] --no-ff P</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The --no-ff option creates a new branch A'-B'-C' with all-new commits (all the
SHA IDs will be different) even if in the interactive case you only actually
modify commit B. You can then merge this new branch directly into the mainline
branch and be sure you&#8217;ll get all of the branch&#8217;s changes.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>You can also use --no-ff in cases where you just add extra commits to the topic
to fix it up. Let&#8217;s revisit the situation discussed at the start of this howto:</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>P---o---o---M---x---x---W---x
\ /
A---B---C----------------D---E &lt;-- fixed-up topic branch</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>At this point, you can use --no-ff to recreate the topic branch:</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>$ git checkout E
$ git rebase --no-ff P</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>yielding</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> A'---B'---C'------------D'---E' &lt;-- recreated topic branch
/
P---o---o---M---x---x---W---x
\ /
A---B---C----------------D---E</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>You can merge the recreated branch into the mainline without reverting commit W,
and mainline&#8217;s history will look like this:</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> A'---B'---C'------------D'---E'

P---o---o---M---x---x---W---x---M2

Subject: [HOWTO] Reverting an existing commit
Abstract: In this article, JC gives a small real-life example of using
'git revert' command, and using a temporary branch and tag for safety
and easier sanity checking.

How to revert an existing commit
================================
One of the changes I pulled into the 'master' branch turns out to
break building Git with GCC 2.95. While they were well-intentioned
portability fixes, keeping things working with gcc-2.95 was also
important. Here is what I did to revert the change in the 'master'
branch and to adjust the 'seen' branch, using core Git tools and
barebone Porcelain.
First, prepare a throw-away branch in case I screw things up.
------------------------------------------------
$ git checkout -b revert-c99 master
------------------------------------------------
Now I am on the 'revert-c99' branch. Let's figure out which commit to
revert. I happen to know that the top of the 'master' branch is a
merge, and its second parent (i.e. foreign commit I merged from) has
the change I would want to undo. Further I happen to know that that
merge introduced 5 commits or so:
------------------------------------------------
$ git show-branch --more=4 master master^2 | head
* [master] Merge refs/heads/portable from http://www.cs.berkeley....
! [master^2] Replace C99 array initializers with code.
--
- [master] Merge refs/heads/portable from http://www.cs.berkeley....
*+ [master^2] Replace C99 array initializers with code.
*+ [master^2~1] Replace unsetenv() and setenv() with older putenv().
*+ [master^2~2] Include sys/time.h in daemon.c.
*+ [master^2~3] Fix ?: statements.
*+ [master^2~4] Replace zero-length array decls with [].
* [master~1] tutorial note about git branch
------------------------------------------------
The '--more=4' above means "after we reach the merge base of refs,
show until we display four more common commits". That last commit
would have been where the "portable" branch was forked from the main
git.git repository, so this would show everything on both branches
since then. I just limited the output to the first handful using
'head'.
Now I know 'master^2~4' (pronounce it as "find the second parent of
the 'master', and then go four generations back following the first
parent") is the one I would want to revert. Since I also want to say
why I am reverting it, the '-n' flag is given to 'git revert'. This
prevents it from actually making a commit, and instead 'git revert'
leaves the commit log message it wanted to use in '.msg' file:
------------------------------------------------
$ git revert -n master^2~4
$ cat .msg
Revert "Replace zero-length array decls with []."
This reverts 6c5f9baa3bc0d63e141e0afc23110205379905a4 commit.
$ git diff HEAD ;# to make sure what we are reverting makes sense.
$ make CC=gcc-2.95 clean test ;# make sure it fixed the breakage.
$ make clean test ;# make sure it did not cause other breakage.
------------------------------------------------
The reverted change makes sense (from reading the 'diff' output), does
fix the problem (from 'make CC=gcc-2.95' test), and does not cause new
breakage (from the last 'make test'). I'm ready to commit:
------------------------------------------------
$ git commit -a -s ;# read .msg into the log,
# and explain why I am reverting.
------------------------------------------------
I could have screwed up in any of the above steps, but in the worst
case I could just have done 'git checkout master' to start over.
Fortunately I did not have to; what I have in the current branch
'revert-c99' is what I want. So merge that back into 'master':
------------------------------------------------
$ git checkout master
$ git merge revert-c99 ;# this should be a fast-forward

5 files changed, 8 insertions(+), 8 deletions(-)
------------------------------------------------
There is no need to redo the test at this point. We fast-forwarded
and we know 'master' matches 'revert-c99' exactly. In fact:
------------------------------------------------
$ git diff master..revert-c99
------------------------------------------------
says nothing.
Then we rebase the 'seen' branch as usual.
------------------------------------------------
$ git checkout seen
$ git tag seen-anchor seen
$ git rebase master

------------------------------------------------
The temporary tag 'seen-anchor' is me just being careful, in case 'git
rebase' screws up. After this, I can do these for sanity check:
------------------------------------------------
$ git diff seen-anchor..seen ;# make sure we got the master fix.
$ make CC=gcc-2.95 clean test ;# make sure it fixed the breakage.
$ make clean test ;# make sure it did not cause other breakage.
------------------------------------------------
Everything is in the good order. I do not need the temporary branch
or tag anymore, so remove them:
------------------------------------------------
$ rm -f .git/refs/tags/seen-anchor
$ git branch -d revert-c99
------------------------------------------------
It was an emergency fix, so we might as well merge it into the
'release candidate' branch, although I expect the next release would
be some days off:
------------------------------------------------
$ git checkout rc
$ git pull . master

<h1>How to revert an existing commit</h1>
</div>
<div id="content">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>One of the changes I pulled into the <em>master</em> branch turns out to
break building Git with GCC 2.95. While they were well-intentioned
portability fixes, keeping things working with gcc-2.95 was also
important. Here is what I did to revert the change in the <em>master</em>
branch and to adjust the <em>seen</em> branch, using core Git tools and
barebone Porcelain.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>First, prepare a throw-away branch in case I screw things up.</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>$ git checkout -b revert-c99 master</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Now I am on the <em>revert-c99</em> branch. Let&#8217;s figure out which commit to
revert. I happen to know that the top of the <em>master</em> branch is a
merge, and its second parent (i.e. foreign commit I merged from) has
the change I would want to undo. Further I happen to know that that
merge introduced 5 commits or so:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>$ git show-branch --more=4 master master^2 | head
* [master] Merge refs/heads/portable from http://www.cs.berkeley....
! [master^2] Replace C99 array initializers with code.
--
- [master] Merge refs/heads/portable from http://www.cs.berkeley....
*+ [master^2] Replace C99 array initializers with code.
*+ [master^2~1] Replace unsetenv() and setenv() with older putenv().
*+ [master^2~2] Include sys/time.h in daemon.c.
*+ [master^2~3] Fix ?: statements.
*+ [master^2~4] Replace zero-length array decls with [].
* [master~1] tutorial note about git branch</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The <em>--more=4</em> above means "after we reach the merge base of refs,
show until we display four more common commits". That last commit
would have been where the "portable" branch was forked from the main
git.git repository, so this would show everything on both branches
since then. I just limited the output to the first handful using
<em>head</em>.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Now I know <em>master^2~4</em> (pronounce it as "find the second parent of
the <em>master</em>, and then go four generations back following the first
parent") is the one I would want to revert. Since I also want to say
why I am reverting it, the <em>-n</em> flag is given to <em>git revert</em>. This
prevents it from actually making a commit, and instead <em>git revert</em>
leaves the commit log message it wanted to use in <em>.msg</em> file:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>$ git revert -n master^2~4
$ cat .msg
Revert "Replace zero-length array decls with []."
This reverts 6c5f9baa3bc0d63e141e0afc23110205379905a4 commit.
$ git diff HEAD ;# to make sure what we are reverting makes sense.
$ make CC=gcc-2.95 clean test ;# make sure it fixed the breakage.
$ make clean test ;# make sure it did not cause other breakage.</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The reverted change makes sense (from reading the <em>diff</em> output), does
fix the problem (from <em>make CC=gcc-2.95</em> test), and does not cause new
breakage (from the last <em>make test</em>). I&#8217;m ready to commit:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>$ git commit -a -s ;# read .msg into the log,
# and explain why I am reverting.</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>I could have screwed up in any of the above steps, but in the worst
case I could just have done <em>git checkout master</em> to start over.
Fortunately I did not have to; what I have in the current branch
<em>revert-c99</em> is what I want. So merge that back into <em>master</em>:</p>

From: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
Subject: Separating topic branches
Abstract: In this article, JC describes how to separate topic branches.
Content-type: text/asciidoc
How to separate topic branches
==============================
This text was originally a footnote to a discussion about the
behaviour of the git diff commands.
Often I find myself doing that [running diff against something other
than HEAD] while rewriting messy development history. For example, I
start doing some work without knowing exactly where it leads, and end
up with a history like this:
"master"
o---o
\ "topic"
o---o---o---o---o---o
At this point, "topic" contains something I know I want, but it
contains two concepts that turned out to be completely independent.
And often, one topic component is larger than the other. It may
contain more than two topics.
In order to rewrite this mess to be more manageable, I would first do
"diff master..topic", to extract the changes into a single patch, start
picking pieces from it to get logically self-contained units, and
start building on top of "master":
$ git diff master..topic >P.diff
$ git checkout -b topicA master
... pick and apply pieces from P.diff to build
... commits on topicA branch.
o---o---o
/ "topicA"
o---o"master"
\ "topic"
o---o---o---o---o---o
Before doing each commit on "topicA" HEAD, I run "diff HEAD"
before update-index the affected paths, or "diff --cached HEAD"
after. Also I would run "diff --cached master" to make sure
that the changes are only the ones related to "topicA". Usually
I do this for smaller topics first.
After that, I'd do the remainder of the original "topic", but
for that, I do not start from the patchfile I extracted by
comparing "master" and "topic" I used initially. Still on
"topicA", I extract "diff topic", and use it to rebuild the
other topic:
$ git diff -R topic >P.diff ;# --cached also would work fine
$ git checkout -b topicB master
... pick and apply pieces from P.diff to build
... commits on topicB branch.
"topicB"
o---o---o---o---o
/
/o---o---o
|/ "topicA"
o---o"master"
\ "topic"
o---o---o---o---o---o
After I am done, I'd try a pretend-merge between "topicA" and
"topicB" in order to make sure I have not missed anything:
$ git pull . topicA ;# merge it into current "topicB"
$ git diff topic
"topicB"
o---o---o---o---o---* (pretend merge)
/ /
/o---o---o----------'
|/ "topicA"
o---o"master"
\ "topic"
o---o---o---o---o---o
The last diff better not to show anything other than cleanups
for cruft. Then I can finally clean things up:
$ git branch -D topic
$ git reset --hard HEAD^ ;# nuke pretend merge
"topicB"
o---o---o---o---o
/
/o---o---o
|/ "topicA"
o---o"master"

<h1>How to separate topic branches</h1>

<div class="paragraph">
<p>This text was originally a footnote to a discussion about the
behaviour of the git diff commands.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Often I find myself doing that [running diff against something other
than HEAD] while rewriting messy development history. For example, I
start doing some work without knowing exactly where it leads, and end
up with a history like this:</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> "master"
o---o
\ "topic"
o---o---o---o---o---o</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>At this point, "topic" contains something I know I want, but it
contains two concepts that turned out to be completely independent.
And often, one topic component is larger than the other. It may
contain more than two topics.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>In order to rewrite this mess to be more manageable, I would first do
"diff master..topic", to extract the changes into a single patch, start
picking pieces from it to get logically self-contained units, and
start building on top of "master":</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>$ git diff master..topic &gt;P.diff
$ git checkout -b topicA master
... pick and apply pieces from P.diff to build
... commits on topicA branch.</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> o---o---o
/ "topicA"
o---o"master"
\ "topic"
o---o---o---o---o---o</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Before doing each commit on "topicA" HEAD, I run "diff HEAD"
before update-index the affected paths, or "diff --cached HEAD"
after. Also I would run "diff --cached master" to make sure
that the changes are only the ones related to "topicA". Usually
I do this for smaller topics first.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>After that, I&#8217;d do the remainder of the original "topic", but
for that, I do not start from the patchfile I extracted by
comparing "master" and "topic" I used initially. Still on
"topicA", I extract "diff topic", and use it to rebuild the
other topic:</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>$ git diff -R topic &gt;P.diff ;# --cached also would work fine
$ git checkout -b topicB master
... pick and apply pieces from P.diff to build
... commits on topicB branch.</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> "topicB"
o---o---o---o---o
/
/o---o---o
|/ "topicA"
o---o"master"
\ "topic"
o---o---o---o---o---o</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>After I am done, I&#8217;d try a pretend-merge between "topicA" and
"topicB" in order to make sure I have not missed anything:</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>$ git pull . topicA ;# merge it into current "topicB"
$ git diff topic

/ /
/o---o---o----------'
|/ "topicA"
o---o"master"
\ "topic"
o---o---o---o---o---o</pre>
</div>

<div class="paragraph">
<p>The last diff better not to show anything other than cleanups
for cruft. Then I can finally clean things up:</p>

Subject: Setting up a Git repository which can be pushed into and pulled from over HTTP(S).
Date: Thu, 10 Aug 2006 22:00:26 +0200
Content-type: text/asciidoc
How to setup Git server over http
=================================
NOTE: This document is from 2006. A lot has happened since then, and this
document is now relevant mainly if your web host is not CGI capable.
Almost everyone else should instead look at linkgit:git-http-backend[1].
Since Apache is one of those packages people like to compile
themselves while others prefer the bureaucrat's dream Debian, it is
impossible to give guidelines which will work for everyone. Just send
some feedback to the mailing list at git@vger.kernel.org to get this
document tailored to your favorite distro.
What's needed:
- Have an Apache web-server
On Debian:
$ apt-get install apache2
To get apache2 by default started,
edit /etc/default/apache2 and set NO_START=0
- can edit the configuration of it.
This could be found under /etc/httpd, or refer to your Apache documentation.
On Debian: this means being able to edit files under /etc/apache2
- can restart it.
'apachectl --graceful' might do. If it doesn't, just stop and
restart apache. Be warning that active connections to your server
might be aborted by this.
On Debian:
$ /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
or
$ /etc/init.d/apache2 force-reload
(which seems to do the same)
This adds symlinks from the /etc/apache2/mods-enabled to
/etc/apache2/mods-available.
- have permissions to chown a directory
- have Git installed on the client, and
- either have Git installed on the server or have a webdav client on
the client.
In effect, this means you're going to be root, or that you're using a
preconfigured WebDAV server.
Step 1: setup a bare Git repository
-----------------------------------
At the time of writing, git-http-push cannot remotely create a Git
repository. So we have to do that at the server side with Git. Another
option is to generate an empty bare repository at the client and copy
it to the server with a WebDAV client (which is the only option if Git
is not installed on the server).
Create the directory under the DocumentRoot of the directories served
by Apache. As an example we take /usr/local/apache2, but try "grep
DocumentRoot /where/ever/httpd.conf" to find your root:
$ cd /usr/local/apache/htdocs
$ mkdir my-new-repo.git
On Debian:
$ cd /var/www
$ mkdir my-new-repo.git
Initialize a bare repository
$ cd my-new-repo.git
$ git --bare init
Change the ownership to your web-server's credentials. Use `"grep ^User
httpd.conf"` and `"grep ^Group httpd.conf"` to find out:
$ chown -R www.www .
On Debian:
$ chown -R www-data.www-data .
If you do not know which user Apache runs as, you can alternatively do
a "chmod -R a+w .", inspect the files which are created later on, and
set the permissions appropriately.
Restart apache2, and check whether http://server/my-new-repo.git gives
a directory listing. If not, check whether apache started up
successfully.
Step 2: enable DAV on this repository
-------------------------------------
First make sure the dav_module is loaded. For this, insert in httpd.conf:
LoadModule dav_module libexec/httpd/libdav.so
AddModule mod_dav.c
Also make sure that this line exists which is the file used for
locking DAV operations:
DAVLockDB "/usr/local/apache2/temp/DAV.lock"
On Debian these steps can be performed with:
Enable the dav and dav_fs modules of apache:
$ a2enmod dav_fs
(just to be sure. dav_fs might be unneeded, I don't know)
$ a2enmod dav
The DAV lock is located in /etc/apache2/mods-available/dav_fs.conf:
DAVLockDB /var/lock/apache2/DAVLock
Of course, it can point somewhere else, but the string is actually just a
prefix in some Apache configurations, and therefore the _directory_ has to
be writable by the user Apache runs as.
Then, add something like this to your httpd.conf
<Location /my-new-repo.git>
DAV on
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Git"
AuthUserFile /usr/local/apache2/conf/passwd.git
Require valid-user
</Location>
On Debian:
Create (or add to) /etc/apache2/conf.d/git.conf :
<Location /my-new-repo.git>
DAV on
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Git"
AuthUserFile /etc/apache2/passwd.git
Require valid-user
</Location>
Debian automatically reads all files under /etc/apache2/conf.d.
The password file can be somewhere else, but it has to be readable by
Apache and preferably not readable by the world.
Create this file by
$ htpasswd -c /usr/local/apache2/conf/passwd.git <user>
On Debian:
$ htpasswd -c /etc/apache2/passwd.git <user>
You will be asked a password, and the file is created. Subsequent calls
to htpasswd should omit the '-c' option, since you want to append to the
existing file.
You need to restart Apache.
Now go to http://<username>@<servername>/my-new-repo.git in your
browser to check whether it asks for a password and accepts the right
password.
On Debian:
To test the WebDAV part, do:
$ apt-get install litmus
$ litmus http://<servername>/my-new-repo.git <username> <password>
Most tests should pass.
A command-line tool to test WebDAV is cadaver. If you prefer GUIs, for
example, konqueror can open WebDAV URLs as "webdav://..." or
"webdavs://...".
If you're into Windows, from XP onwards Internet Explorer supports
WebDAV. For this, do Internet Explorer -> Open Location ->
http://<servername>/my-new-repo.git [x] Open as webfolder -> login .
Step 3: setup the client
------------------------
Make sure that you have HTTP support, i.e. your Git was built with
libcurl (version more recent than 7.10). The command 'git http-push' with
no argument should display a usage message.
Then, add the following to your $HOME/.netrc (you can do without, but will be
asked to input your password a _lot_ of times):
machine <servername>
login <username>
password <password>
...and set permissions:
chmod 600 ~/.netrc
If you want to access the web-server by its IP, you have to type that in,
instead of the server name.
To check whether all is OK, do:
curl --netrc --location -v http://<username>@<servername>/my-new-repo.git/HEAD
...this should give something like 'ref: refs/heads/master', which is
the content of the file HEAD on the server.
Now, add the remote in your existing repository which contains the project
you want to export:
$ git-config remote.upload.url \
http://<username>@<servername>/my-new-repo.git/
It is important to put the last '/'; Without it, the server will send
a redirect which git-http-push does not (yet) understand, and git-http-push
will repeat the request infinitely.
Step 4: make the initial push
-----------------------------
From your client repository, do
$ git push upload master
This pushes branch 'master' (which is assumed to be the branch you
want to export) to repository called 'upload', which we previously
defined with git-config.
Using a proxy:
--------------
If you have to access the WebDAV server from behind an HTTP(S) proxy,
set the variable 'all_proxy' to `http://proxy-host.com:port`, or
`http://login-on-proxy:passwd-on-proxy@proxy-host.com:port`. See 'man
curl' for details.
Troubleshooting:
----------------
If git-http-push says
Error: no DAV locking support on remote repo http://...
then it means the web-server did not accept your authentication. Make sure
that the user name and password matches in httpd.conf, .netrc and the URL
you are uploading to.
If git-http-push shows you an error (22/502) when trying to MOVE a blob,
it means that your web-server somehow does not recognize its name in the
request; This can happen when you start Apache, but then disable the
network interface. A simple restart of Apache helps.
Errors like (22/502) are of format (curl error code/http error
code). So (22/404) means something like 'not found' at the server.
Reading /usr/local/apache2/logs/error_log is often helpful.
On Debian: Read /var/log/apache2/error.log instead.
If you access HTTPS locations, Git may fail verifying the SSL
certificate (this is return code 60). Setting http.sslVerify=false can
help diagnosing the problem, but removes security checks.

Subject: control access to branches.
Date: Thu, 17 Nov 2005 23:55:32 -0800
Message-ID: <7vfypumlu3.fsf@assigned-by-dhcp.cox.net>
Abstract: An example hooks/update script is presented to
implement repository maintenance policies, such as who can push
into which branch and who can make a tag.
Content-type: text/asciidoc
How to use the update hook
==========================
When your developer runs git-push into the repository,
git-receive-pack is run (either locally or over ssh) as that
developer, so is hooks/update script. Quoting from the relevant
section of the documentation:
Before each ref is updated, if $GIT_DIR/hooks/update file exists
and executable, it is called with three parameters:
$GIT_DIR/hooks/update refname sha1-old sha1-new
The refname parameter is relative to $GIT_DIR; e.g. for the
master head this is "refs/heads/master". Two sha1 are the
object names for the refname before and after the update. Note
that the hook is called before the refname is updated, so either
sha1-old is 0{40} (meaning there is no such ref yet), or it
should match what is recorded in refname.
So if your policy is (1) always require fast-forward push
(i.e. never allow "git-push repo +branch:branch"), (2) you
have a list of users allowed to update each branch, and (3) you
do not let tags to be overwritten, then you can use something
like this as your hooks/update script.
[jc: editorial note. This is a much improved version by Carl
since I posted the original outline]

----------------------------------------------------
This uses two files, $GIT_DIR/info/allowed-users and
allowed-groups, to describe which heads can be pushed into by
whom. The format of each file would look like this:
refs/heads/master junio
+refs/heads/seen junio
refs/heads/cogito$ pasky
refs/heads/bw/.* linus
refs/heads/tmp/.* .*
refs/tags/v[0-9].* junio
With this, Linus can push or create "bw/penguin" or "bw/zebra"
or "bw/panda" branches, Pasky can do only "cogito", and JC can
do master and "seen" branches and make versioned tags. And anybody
can do tmp/blah branches. The '+' sign at the "seen" record means
that JC can make non-fast-forward pushes on it.

<h1>How to use the update hook</h1>
</div>
<div id="content">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>When your developer runs git-push into the repository,
git-receive-pack is run (either locally or over ssh) as that
developer, so is hooks/update script. Quoting from the relevant
section of the documentation:</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>Before each ref is updated, if $GIT_DIR/hooks/update file exists
and executable, it is called with three parameters:</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>$GIT_DIR/hooks/update refname sha1-old sha1-new</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>The refname parameter is relative to $GIT_DIR; e.g. for the
master head this is "refs/heads/master". Two sha1 are the
object names for the refname before and after the update. Note
that the hook is called before the refname is updated, so either
sha1-old is 0{40} (meaning there is no such ref yet), or it
should match what is recorded in refname.</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>So if your policy is (1) always require fast-forward push
(i.e. never allow "git-push repo +branch:branch"), (2) you
have a list of users allowed to update each branch, and (3) you
do not let tags to be overwritten, then you can use something
like this as your hooks/update script.</p>

How to use git-daemon
=====================
Git can be run in inetd mode and in stand alone mode. But all you want is
to let a coworker pull from you, and therefore need to set up a Git server
real quick, right?
Note that git-daemon is not really chatty at the moment, especially when
things do not go according to plan (e.g. a socket could not be bound).
Another word of warning: if you run
$ git ls-remote git://127.0.0.1/rule-the-world.git
and you see a message like
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
it only means that _something_ went wrong. To find out _what_ went wrong,
you have to ask the server. (Git refuses to be more precise for your
security only. Take off your shoes now. You have any coins in your pockets?
Sorry, not allowed -- who knows what you planned to do with them?)
With these two caveats, let's see an example:
$ git daemon --reuseaddr --verbose --base-path=/home/gitte/git \
--export-all -- /home/gitte/git/rule-the-world.git
(Of course, unless your user name is `gitte` _and_ your repository is in
~/rule-the-world.git, you have to adjust the paths. If your repository is
not bare, be aware that you have to type the path to the .git directory!)
This invocation tries to reuse the address if it is already taken
(this can save you some debugging, because otherwise killing and restarting
git-daemon could just silently fail to bind to a socket).
Also, it is (relatively) verbose when somebody actually connects to it.
It also sets the base path, which means that all the projects which can be
accessed using this daemon have to reside in or under that path.
The option `--export-all` just means that you _don't_ have to create a
file named `git-daemon-export-ok` in each exported repository. (Otherwise,
git-daemon would complain loudly, and refuse to cooperate.)
Last of all, the repository which should be exported is specified. It is
a good practice to put the paths after a "--" separator.
Now, test your daemon with
$ git ls-remote git://127.0.0.1/rule-the-world.git
If this does not work, find out why, and submit a patch to this document.

<h1>How to use git-daemon</h1>

<div id="content">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Git can be run in inetd mode and in stand alone mode. But all you want is
to let a coworker pull from you, and therefore need to set up a Git server
real quick, right?</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Note that git-daemon is not really chatty at the moment, especially when
things do not go according to plan (e.g. a socket could not be bound).</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Another word of warning: if you run</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>$ git ls-remote git://127.0.0.1/rule-the-world.git</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>and you see a message like</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>it only means that <em>something</em> went wrong. To find out <em>what</em> went wrong,
you have to ask the server. (Git refuses to be more precise for your
security only. Take off your shoes now. You have any coins in your pockets?
Sorry, not allowed&#8201;&#8212;&#8201;who knows what you planned to do with them?)</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>With these two caveats, let&#8217;s see an example:</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>$ git daemon --reuseaddr --verbose --base-path=/home/gitte/git \
--export-all -- /home/gitte/git/rule-the-world.git</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>(Of course, unless your user name is <code>gitte</code> <em>and</em> your repository is in
~/rule-the-world.git, you have to adjust the paths. If your repository is
not bare, be aware that you have to type the path to the .git directory!)</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>This invocation tries to reuse the address if it is already taken
(this can save you some debugging, because otherwise killing and restarting
git-daemon could just silently fail to bind to a socket).</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Also, it is (relatively) verbose when somebody actually connects to it.
It also sets the base path, which means that all the projects which can be
accessed using this daemon have to reside in or under that path.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The option <code>--export-all</code> just means that you <em>don&#8217;t</em> have to create a
file named <code>git-daemon-export-ok</code> in each exported repository. (Otherwise,
git-daemon would complain loudly, and refuse to cooperate.)</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Last of all, the repository which should be exported is specified. It is
a good practice to put the paths after a "--" separator.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Now, test your daemon with</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>$ git ls-remote git://127.0.0.1/rule-the-world.git</pre>
</div>
</div>

Subject: how to use git merge -s subtree?
Abstract: In this article, Sean demonstrates how one can use the subtree merge
strategy.
Content-type: text/asciidoc
Message-ID: <BAYC1-PASMTP12374B54BA370A1E1C6E78AE4E0@CEZ.ICE>
How to use the subtree merge strategy
=====================================
There are situations where you want to include content in your project
from an independently developed project. You can just pull from the
other project as long as there are no conflicting paths.
The problematic case is when there are conflicting files. Potential
candidates are Makefiles and other standard filenames. You could merge
these files but probably you do not want to. A better solution for this
problem can be to merge the project as its own subdirectory. This is not
supported by the 'recursive' merge strategy, so just pulling won't work.
What you want is the 'subtree' merge strategy, which helps you in such a
situation.
In this example, let's say you have the repository at `/path/to/B` (but
it can be a URL as well, if you want). You want to merge the 'master'
branch of that repository to the `dir-B` subdirectory in your current
branch.
Here is the command sequence you need:
----------------
$ git remote add -f Bproject /path/to/B <1>
$ git merge -s ours --no-commit --allow-unrelated-histories Bproject/master <2>
$ git read-tree --prefix=dir-B/ -u Bproject/master <3>
$ git commit -m "Merge B project as our subdirectory" <4>
$ git pull -s subtree Bproject master <5>
----------------
<1> name the other project "Bproject", and fetch.
<2> prepare for the later step to record the result as a merge.
<3> read "master" branch of Bproject to the subdirectory "dir-B".
<4> record the merge result.
<5> maintain the result with subsequent merges using "subtree"
The first four commands are used for the initial merge, while the last
one is to merge updates from 'B project'.
Comparing 'subtree' merge with submodules
-----------------------------------------
- The benefit of using subtree merge is that it requires less
administrative burden from the users of your repository. It works with
older (before Git v1.5.2) clients and you have the code right after
clone.
- However if you use submodules then you can choose not to transfer the
submodule objects. This may be a problem with the subtree merge.
- Also, in case you make changes to the other project, it is easier to
submit changes if you just use submodules.
Additional tips
---------------
- If you made changes to the other project in your repository, they may
want to merge from your project. This is possible using subtree -- it
can shift up the paths in your tree and then they can merge only the
relevant parts of your tree.
- Please note that if the other project merges from you, then it will
connect its history to yours, which can be something they don't want
to.

Subject: Using signed tag in pull requests
Abstract: Beginning v1.7.9, a contributor can push a signed tag to her
publishing repository and ask her integrator to pull it. This assures the
integrator that the pulled history is authentic and allows others to
later validate it.
Content-type: text/asciidoc
How to use a signed tag in pull requests
========================================
A typical distributed workflow using Git is for a contributor to fork a
project, build on it, publish the result to her public repository, and ask
the "upstream" person (often the owner of the project where she forked
from) to pull from her public repository. Requesting such a "pull" is made
easy by the `git request-pull` command.
Earlier, a typical pull request may have started like this:
------------
The following changes since commit 406da78032179...:
Froboz 3.2 (2011-09-30 14:20:57 -0700)
are available in the Git repository at:
example.com:/git/froboz.git for-xyzzy
------------
followed by a shortlog of the changes and a diffstat.
The request was for a branch name (e.g. `for-xyzzy`) in the public
repository of the contributor, and even though it stated where the
contributor forked her work from, the message did not say anything about
the commit to expect at the tip of the for-xyzzy branch. If the site that
hosts the public repository of the contributor cannot be fully trusted, it
was unnecessarily hard to make sure what was pulled by the integrator was
genuinely what the contributor had produced for the project. Also there
was no easy way for third-party auditors to later verify the resulting
history.
Starting from Git release v1.7.9, a contributor can add a signed tag to
the commit at the tip of the history and ask the integrator to pull that
signed tag. When the integrator runs `git pull`, the signed tag is
automatically verified to assure that the history is not tampered with.
In addition, the resulting merge commit records the content of the signed
tag, so that other people can verify that the branch merged by the
integrator was signed by the contributor, without fetching the signed tag
used to validate the pull request separately and keeping it in the refs
namespace.
This document describes the workflow between the contributor and the
integrator, using Git v1.7.9 or later.
A contributor or a lieutenant
-----------------------------
After preparing her work to be pulled, the contributor uses `git tag -s`
to create a signed tag:
------------
$ git checkout work
$ ... "git pull" from sublieutenants, "git commit" your own work ...
$ git tag -s -m "Completed frotz feature" frotz-for-xyzzy work
------------
Note that this example uses the `-m` option to create a signed tag with
just a one-liner message, but this is for illustration purposes only. It
is advisable to compose a well-written explanation of what the topic does
to justify why it is worthwhile for the integrator to pull it, as this
message will eventually become part of the final history after the
integrator responds to the pull request (as we will see later).
Then she pushes the tag out to her public repository:
------------
$ git push example.com:/git/froboz.git/ +frotz-for-xyzzy
------------
There is no need to push the `work` branch or anything else.
Note that the above command line used a plus sign at the beginning of
`+frotz-for-xyzzy` to allow forcing the update of a tag, as the same
contributor may want to reuse a signed tag with the same name after the
previous pull request has already been responded to.
The contributor then prepares a message to request a "pull":
------------
$ git request-pull v3.2 example.com:/git/froboz.git/ frotz-for-xyzzy >msg.txt
------------
The arguments are:
. the version of the integrator's commit the contributor based her work on;
. the URL of the repository, to which the contributor has pushed what she
wants to get pulled; and
. the name of the tag the contributor wants to get pulled (earlier, she could
write only a branch name here).
The resulting msg.txt file begins like so:
------------
The following changes since commit 406da78032179...:
Froboz 3.2 (2011-09-30 14:20:57 -0700)
are available in the Git repository at:
example.com:/git/froboz.git tags/frotz-for-xyzzy
for you to fetch changes up to 703f05ad5835c...:
Add tests and documentation for frotz (2011-12-02 10:02:52 -0800)
-----------------------------------------------
Completed frotz feature
-----------------------------------------------
------------
followed by a shortlog of the changes and a diffstat. Comparing this with
the earlier illustration of the output from the traditional `git request-pull`
command, the reader should notice that:
. The tip commit to expect is shown to the integrator; and
. The signed tag message is shown prominently between the dashed lines
before the shortlog.
The latter is why the contributor would want to justify why pulling her
work is worthwhile when creating the signed tag. The contributor then
opens her favorite MUA, reads msg.txt, edits and sends it to her upstream
integrator.
Integrator
----------
After receiving such a pull request message, the integrator fetches and
integrates the tag named in the request, with:
------------
$ git pull example.com:/git/froboz.git/ tags/frotz-for-xyzzy
------------
This operation will always open an editor to allow the integrator to fine
tune the commit log message when merging a signed tag. Also, pulling a
signed tag will always create a merge commit even when the integrator does
not have any new commit since the contributor's work forked (i.e. 'fast
forward'), so that the integrator can properly explain what the merge is
about and why it was made.
In the editor, the integrator will see something like this:
------------
Merge tag 'frotz-for-xyzzy' of example.com:/git/froboz.git/
Completed frotz feature
# gpg: Signature made Fri 02 Dec 2011 10:03:01 AM PST using RSA key ID 96AFE6CB
# gpg: Good signature from "Con Tributor <nitfol@example.com>"
------------
Notice that the message recorded in the signed tag "Completed frotz
feature" appears here, and again that is why it is important for the
contributor to explain her work well when creating the signed tag.
As usual, the lines commented with `#` are stripped out. The resulting
commit records the signed tag used for this validation in a hidden field
so that it can later be used by others to audit the history. There is no
need for the integrator to keep a separate copy of the tag in his
repository (i.e. `git tag -l` won't list the `frotz-for-xyzzy` tag in the
above example), and there is no need to publish the tag to his public
repository, either.
After the integrator responds to the pull request and her work becomes
part of the permanent history, the contributor can remove the tag from
her public repository, if she chooses, in order to keep the tag namespace
of her public repository clean, with:
------------
$ git push example.com:/git/froboz.git :frotz-for-xyzzy
------------
Auditors
--------
The `--show-signature` option can be given to `git log` or `git show` and
shows the verification status of the embedded signed tag in merge commits
created when the integrator responded to a pull request of a signed tag.
A typical output from `git show --show-signature` may look like this:
------------
$ git show --show-signature
commit 02306ef6a3498a39118aef9df7975bdb50091585
merged tag 'frotz-for-xyzzy'
gpg: Signature made Fri 06 Jan 2012 12:41:49 PM PST using RSA key ID 96AFE6CB
gpg: Good signature from "Con Tributor <nitfol@example.com>"
Merge: 406da78 703f05a
Author: Inte Grator <xyzzy@example.com>
Date: Tue Jan 17 13:49:41 2012 -0800
Merge tag 'frotz-for-xyzzy' of example.com:/git/froboz.git/
Completed frotz feature
* tag 'frotz-for-xyzzy' (100 commits)
Add tests and documentation for frotz
...
------------
There is no need for the auditor to explicitly fetch the contributor's
signature, or to even be aware of what tag(s) the contributor and integrator
used to communicate the signature. All the required information is recorded
as part of the merge commit.

<h1>How to use a signed tag in pull requests</h1>
</div>
<div id="content">
<div id="preamble">
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>A typical distributed workflow using Git is for a contributor to fork a
project, build on it, publish the result to her public repository, and ask
the "upstream" person (often the owner of the project where she forked
from) to pull from her public repository. Requesting such a "pull" is made
easy by the <code>git</code> <code>request-pull</code> command.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Earlier, a typical pull request may have started like this:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> The following changes since commit 406da78032179...:
Froboz 3.2 (2011-09-30 14:20:57 -0700)
are available in the Git repository at:
example.com:/git/froboz.git for-xyzzy</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>followed by a shortlog of the changes and a diffstat.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The request was for a branch name (e.g. <code>for-xyzzy</code>) in the public
repository of the contributor, and even though it stated where the
contributor forked her work from, the message did not say anything about
the commit to expect at the tip of the for-xyzzy branch. If the site that
hosts the public repository of the contributor cannot be fully trusted, it
was unnecessarily hard to make sure what was pulled by the integrator was
genuinely what the contributor had produced for the project. Also there
was no easy way for third-party auditors to later verify the resulting
history.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Starting from Git release v1.7.9, a contributor can add a signed tag to
the commit at the tip of the history and ask the integrator to pull that
signed tag. When the integrator runs <code>git</code> <code>pull</code>, the signed tag is
automatically verified to assure that the history is not tampered with.
In addition, the resulting merge commit records the content of the signed
tag, so that other people can verify that the branch merged by the
integrator was signed by the contributor, without fetching the signed tag
used to validate the pull request separately and keeping it in the refs
namespace.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>This document describes the workflow between the contributor and the
integrator, using Git v1.7.9 or later.</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="sect1">
<h2 id="_a_contributor_or_a_lieutenant">A contributor or a lieutenant</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>After preparing her work to be pulled, the contributor uses <code>git</code> <code>tag</code> <code>-s</code>
to create a signed tag:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> $ git checkout work
$ ... "git pull" from sublieutenants, "git commit" your own work ...
$ git tag -s -m "Completed frotz feature" frotz-for-xyzzy work</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Note that this example uses the <code>-m</code> option to create a signed tag with
just a one-liner message, but this is for illustration purposes only. It
is advisable to compose a well-written explanation of what the topic does
to justify why it is worthwhile for the integrator to pull it, as this
message will eventually become part of the final history after the
integrator responds to the pull request (as we will see later).</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Then she pushes the tag out to her public repository:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> $ git push example.com:/git/froboz.git/ +frotz-for-xyzzy</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>There is no need to push the <code>work</code> branch or anything else.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Note that the above command line used a plus sign at the beginning of
<code>+frotz-for-xyzzy</code> to allow forcing the update of a tag, as the same
contributor may want to reuse a signed tag with the same name after the
previous pull request has already been responded to.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The contributor then prepares a message to request a "pull":</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> $ git request-pull v3.2 example.com:/git/froboz.git/ frotz-for-xyzzy &gt;msg.txt</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The arguments are:</p>
</div>
<div class="olist arabic">
<ol class="arabic">
<li>
<p>the version of the integrator&#8217;s commit the contributor based her work on;</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>the URL of the repository, to which the contributor has pushed what she
wants to get pulled; and</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>the name of the tag the contributor wants to get pulled (earlier, she could
write only a branch name here).</p>
</li>
</ol>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The resulting msg.txt file begins like so:</p>

</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>followed by a shortlog of the changes and a diffstat. Comparing this with
the earlier illustration of the output from the traditional <code>git</code> <code>request-pull</code>
command, the reader should notice that:</p>
</div>
<div class="olist arabic">
<ol class="arabic">
<li>
<p>The tip commit to expect is shown to the integrator; and</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>The signed tag message is shown prominently between the dashed lines
before the shortlog.</p>
</li>
</ol>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The latter is why the contributor would want to justify why pulling her
work is worthwhile when creating the signed tag. The contributor then
opens her favorite MUA, reads msg.txt, edits and sends it to her upstream
integrator.</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="sect1">
<h2 id="_integrator">Integrator</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>After receiving such a pull request message, the integrator fetches and
integrates the tag named in the request, with:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> $ git pull example.com:/git/froboz.git/ tags/frotz-for-xyzzy</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>This operation will always open an editor to allow the integrator to fine
tune the commit log message when merging a signed tag. Also, pulling a
signed tag will always create a merge commit even when the integrator does
not have any new commit since the contributor&#8217;s work forked (i.e. <em>fast
forward</em>), so that the integrator can properly explain what the merge is
about and why it was made.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>In the editor, the integrator will see something like this:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> Merge tag 'frotz-for-xyzzy' of example.com:/git/froboz.git/
Completed frotz feature
# gpg: Signature made Fri 02 Dec 2011 10:03:01 AM PST using RSA key ID 96AFE6CB
# gpg: Good signature from "Con Tributor &lt;nitfol@example.com&gt;"</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Notice that the message recorded in the signed tag "Completed frotz
feature" appears here, and again that is why it is important for the
contributor to explain her work well when creating the signed tag.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>As usual, the lines commented with # are stripped out. The resulting
commit records the signed tag used for this validation in a hidden field
so that it can later be used by others to audit the history. There is no
need for the integrator to keep a separate copy of the tag in his
repository (i.e. <code>git</code> <code>tag</code> <code>-l</code> won&#8217;t list the <code>frotz-for-xyzzy</code> tag in the
above example), and there is no need to publish the tag to his public
repository, either.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>After the integrator responds to the pull request and her work becomes
part of the permanent history, the contributor can remove the tag from
her public repository, if she chooses, in order to keep the tag namespace
of her public repository clean, with:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre> $ git push example.com:/git/froboz.git :frotz-for-xyzzy</pre>

<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The <code>--show-signature</code> option can be given to <code>git</code> <code>log</code> or <code>git</code> <code>show</code> and
shows the verification status of the embedded signed tag in merge commits
created when the integrator responded to a pull request of a signed tag.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>A typical output from <code>git</code> <code>show</code> <code>--show-signature</code> may look like this:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
