Martin Schwaighofer c7e527b82b git fetcher: invoke diff instead of diff-index
diff-index operates on the view that git has of the working tree,
which might be outdated. The higher-level diff command does this
automatically. This change also adds handling for submodules.

fixes 

Alternative fixes would be invoking update-index before diff-index or
matching more closely what require_clean_work_tree from git-sh-setup.sh
does, but both those options make it more difficult to reason about
correctness.

Martin Schwaighofer 0bfa0cdea1 git fetcher: improve check for valid repository
The .git/refs/heads directory might be empty for a valid
usable git repository. This often happens in CI environments,
which might only fetch commits, not branches.
Therefore instead we let git itself check if HEAD points to
something that looks like a commit.

Restore backwards-compat for current builtins.fetchGit
If a repo is dirty, it used to return a `rev` object with an "empty"
sha1 (0000000000000000000000000000000000000000). Please note that this
only applies for `builtins.fetchGit` and *not* for `builtins.fetchTree{
type = "git"; }`.

Merge legacy fetchGit-builtin with the generic fetchTree-function
The original idea was to implement a git-fetcher in Nix's core that
supports content hashes[1]. In #3549[2] it has been suggested to
actually use `fetchTree` for this since it's a fairly generic wrapper
over the new fetcher-API[3] and already supports content-hashes.

This patch implements a new git-fetcher based on `fetchTree` by
incorporating the following changes:

* Removed the original `fetchGit`-implementation and replaced it with an
  alias on the `fetchTree` implementation.

* Ensured that the `git`-fetcher from `libfetchers` always computes a
  content-hash and returns an "empty" revision on dirty trees (the
  latter one is needed to retain backwards-compatibility).

* The hash-mismatch error in the fetcher-API exits with code 102 as it
  usually happens whenever a hash-mismatch is detected by Nix.

* Removed the `flakes`-feature-flag: I didn't see a reason why this API
  is so tightly coupled to the flakes-API and at least `fetchGit` should
  remain usable without any feature-flags.

* It's only possible to specify a `narHash` for a `git`-tree if either a
  `ref` or a `rev` is given[4].

* It's now possible to specify an URL without a protocol. If it's missing,
  `file://` is automatically added as it was the case in the original
  `fetchGit`-implementation.

Git: Use unified caching system 2020-03-17 22:35:29 +01:00
Eelco Dolstra d1165d8791
Require shallow clones to be requested explicitly
If you do a fetchTree on a Git repository, whether the result contains
a revCount attribute should not depend on whether that repository
happens to be a shallow clone or not. That would complicate caching a
lot and would be semantically messy. So applying fetchTree/fetchGit to
a shallow repository is now an error unless you pass the attribute
'shallow = true'. If 'shallow = true', we don't return revCount, even
if the repository is not actually shallow.

Note that Nix itself is not doing shallow clones at the moment. But it
could do so as an optimisation if the user specifies 'shallow = true'.

Issue .

Add a test for shallow Git clones
Also, don't return a revCount anymore for shallow or dirty Git trees,
since it's incorrect.

builtins.fetchGit: Fix build when fetching a git worktree
Worktrees[1] are a feature of git which allow you to check out a ref in
a different directory.

While playing around with flakes I realized that git repositories in a
worktree checkout break when trying to build a flake:

```
$ git worktree add ../nixpkgs-flakes nixpkgs-flakes
$ cd ../nixpkgs-flakes
$ nix build .#hello
error: opening directory '/home/ma27/Projects/nixpkgs-flakes/.git/refs/heads': Not a directory
```

This issue has been fixed by determining with `git rev-parse --git-common-dir`
where the actual `.git` directory is.

Please note that this issue only exists on the `flakes` branch, fetching
worktree checkouts with Nix master seems to work fine.

Graham Christensen 02098d2073 fetchGit: use a better caching scheme
The current usage technically works by putting multiple different
repos in to the same git directory. However, it is very slow as
Git tries very hard to find common commits between the two
repositories. If the two repositories are large (like Nixpkgs and
another long-running project,) it is maddeningly slow.

This change busts the cache for existing deployments, but users
will be promptly repaid in per-repository performance.

Add pure evaluation mode
In this mode, the following restrictions apply:

* The builtins currentTime, currentSystem and storePath throw an
  error.

* $NIX_PATH and -I are ignored.

* fetchGit and fetchMercurial require a revision hash.

* fetchurl and fetchTarball require a sha256 attribute.

* No file system access is allowed outside of the paths returned by
  fetch{Git,Mercurial,url,Tarball}. Thus 'nix build -f ./foo.nix' is
  not allowed.

Thus, the evaluation result is completely reproducible from the
command line arguments. E.g.

  nix build --pure-eval '(
    let
      nix = fetchGit { url = https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs.git; rev = "9c927de4b179a6dd210dd88d34bda8af4b575680"; };
      nixpkgs = fetchGit { url = https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs.git; ref = "release-17.09"; rev = "66b4de79e3841530e6d9c6baf98702aa1f7124e4"; };
    in (import (nix + "/release.nix") { inherit nix nixpkgs; }).build.x86_64-linux
  )'

The goal is to enable completely reproducible and traceable
evaluation. For example, a NixOS configuration could be fully
described by a single Git commit hash. 'nixos-rebuild' would do
something like

  nix build --pure-eval '(
    (import (fetchGit { url = file:///my-nixos-config; rev = "..."; })).system
  ')

where the Git repository /my-nixos-config would use further fetchGit
calls or Git externals to fetch Nixpkgs and whatever other
dependencies it has. Either way, the commit hash would uniquely
identify the NixOS configuration and allow it to reproduced.
