importer: fix handling of missing commits

[Patchew-devel] [PATCH] importer: fix handling of missing commits

Posted by Paolo Bonzini 4 years ago

If the master branch is force-pushed and the old HEAD is not present in the
repository, patchew-cli is currently overwriting the old_head in an
attempt to make the subsequent "git log" command work.  However, this
caused a "wrong old head" exception in the project update command.

Instead, leave the old_head unchanged and use the new commits to build a
"git show" command line.  This works because the new commits are initialized
to a sane value if the master branch is force-pushed.

How does this make sure all message-ids in each commits between old_head and
new_head are collected? That list is used by the server to mark multiple series
merged.

It doesn't.  On the other hand this only happens if someone force-pushes
to master, and the importer is redeployed in such a way that the
old_head is not part of the importer's clone.  Given the circumstances,
IMHO this is neither a big issue, nor a fully fixable issue.

On the other hand it can happen, and it is the cause of the broken
next.patchew.org git imports (as I found out after dropping all the
template crap from the logs...) so it's important to do _something_
about it.

OK, I see the logic now. Thanks.
