So, .git/sequencer/opts, .gitmodules are totally independant. In the latest series, there's a new notion of config_set. .gitmodules, .git/sequencer/opts and the usual config files are in different config sets, and their cache is invalidated independently. -- Matthieu Moy http://www-verimag.imag.fr/~moy/ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

git-cherry-pick, revert: writes '.git/sequencer/opts' (sequencer.c:save_opts)
git-mv : writes '.gitmodules' (submodule.c:update_path_in_gitmodules)
...and the submodule's '.git/config'
(submodule.c:connect_work_tree_and_git_dir)
Note that the typical configuration commands git-config/remote/branch seem
to call git_config_set* immediately before exit, so no need to invalidate
the config cache here either.
Which leaves clone, init and push (transport.c:set_upstreams, seems to be
just before exit as well).
I didn't look further after finding the example in cmd_clone, so with the
statistics above, it may well be the only instance of {git_config;
git_config_set; git_config}, I don't know.
I've attached the reverse call hierarchy as generated by Eclipse - quite
useful for things like this.

Right. (Unless it turns out invalidation isn't needed after all. But even

I think I see what you mean. E.g. in cmd_clone we have:
write_config(&option_config);
git_config(git_default_config, NULL);
...
git_config_set("remote.Foo.url", repo);
...
remote = remote_get(option_origin); /* which does 'git_config(handle_config)'
*/
So if we load the config cache at 'git_config(git_default_config)', then
'remote_get' won't see "remote.Foo.url" unless we invalidate the cache first.
I still don't like that the invalidation is done in git_config_set, though, as
this is also used to write completely unrelated files. Wouldn't it be better to
have a 'git_config_refresh()' that could be used in place of (or before) current
'git_config(callback)' calls? The initial implementation could just invalidate
the config cache. If there's time and energy to spare, a more advanced version
could first check if any of the involved config files has changed.
The xstrdup() problem could be solved by interning strings (see the
attached patch for a trivial implementation). I.e. allocate each distinct
string only once (and keep it allocated).
So if there are 100 instances of "true" in the config file, the interned string
pool would contain only one instance (i.e. 5 bytes + hashmap_entry + malloc
overhead, vs. 100 * (5 bytes + malloc overhead) in case of xstrdup()). If the
config cache is cleared, the interned string in the pool would still remain
valid. If the config cache is reloaded, unmodified values would reuse the
existing strings from the pool.
Side note: interning getenv() results would fix the non-POSIX-compliant
getenv()-usage in git [1].

An API should do the right thing, and if the right thing is to keep the old values, as you pointed out, then setting a config value shouldn't invalidate the cache (at least not automatically). I can think of only git-clone and git-init that may want to refresh the global config cache, otherwise, config_cache_free() should probably _never_ be called. Least of all as a side effect of git_config_set_multivar_in_file(), which is used to write all kinds of unrelated files that just happen to have config-file format (e.g. '.gitmodules', '.git/sequencer/opts'). > So, setting "core.foo" also invalidates "core.bar" in > the cache, while a user of "core.bar" could continue working with the > old, unchanged value. But a user of an xstrdup()ed copy of "core.foo" would also continue to work with the old value. So if everyone keeps copies of config strings, invalidating the cache when setting a value has no effect. We could just as well not invalidate the cache and not xstrdup() strings. Perhaps we should see this as an opportunity to get rid of all the memory leaks in current config code (each string value defined in system / global config and overridden locally will currently be leaked with the 'standard' xstrdup() pattern). -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

This is IMO much worse > than failing with segfault. I disagree. In most case, continuing to use the old config value is the right thing. First, config_cache_free() is called whenever _any_ configuration variable is set. So, setting "core.foo" also invalidates "core.bar" in the cache, while a user of "core.bar" could continue working with the old, unchanged value. Then, allowing the invalidation of a config variable at any time raises a lot of tricky cases (if a command uses a configuration variable twice, do we really want to implement and test the behavior for all combination of old/new values for both usages?). More tricky cases usually means more bugs on the user-side ... When the code really want the freshest value, it's cheap to re-query the config cache anyway. -- Matthieu Moy http://www-verimag.imag.fr/~moy/ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

I don't think that values from the global config cache should be xstrdup()ed.
After all, caching the values during the lifetime of the git process is the
entire point of the config cache, isn't it?
The only reason to call config_cache_free() is to load a _different_
configuration. In this case, however, you would also need to call the relevant
config functions again, leaking all xstrdup()ed strings.
If for some reason a config string is accessed after config_cache_free()
(which would be a bug), you won't notice if strings are xstrdup()ed (i.e. git
will continue to run with some invalid configuration). This is IMO much worse
than failing with segfault.

Two issues:
First, why is 'if(value)' standing by itself? Although this works, it
seems to imply that 'value' might be able to become non-NULL by some
mechanism other than the get_config_maybe_bool() call, which means
that people reading this code have to spend extra time trying to
understand the overall logic. If you follow the example of the
original code, where 'value' is only ever set when 'b < 0', then it is
obvious even to the most casual reader that 'pager_program' is
assigned only for that one condition.
Second, don't you want to xstrdup(value) when assigning to
'pager_program'? If you don't, then 'pager_program' will become a
dangling pointer when config_cache_free() is invoked.
