#define SVN_MERGEINFO_NONINHERITABLE_STR   "*"

Overview of the SVN_PROP_MERGEINFO property.

Merge history is stored in the SVN_PROP_MERGEINFO property of files and directories. The SVN_PROP_MERGEINFO property on a path stores the complete list of changes merged to that path, either directly or via the path's parent, grand-parent, etc.. A path may have empty mergeinfo which means that nothing has been merged to that path or all previous merges to the path were reversed. Note that a path may have no mergeinfo, this is not the same as empty mergeinfo.

Every path in a tree may have SVN_PROP_MERGEINFO set, but if the SVN_PROP_MERGEINFO for a path is equivalent to the SVN_PROP_MERGEINFO for its parent, then the SVN_PROP_MERGEINFO on the path will 'elide' (be removed) from the path as a post step to any merge. If a path's parent does not have any SVN_PROP_MERGEINFO set, the path's mergeinfo can elide to its nearest grand-parent, great-grand-parent, etc. that has equivalent SVN_PROP_MERGEINFO set on it.

If a path has no SVN_PROP_MERGEINFO of its own, it inherits mergeinfo from its nearest parent that has SVN_PROP_MERGEINFO set. The exception to this is SVN_PROP_MERGEINFO with non-inheritable revision ranges. These non-inheritable ranges apply only to the path which they are set on.

Due to Subversion's allowance for mixed revision working copies, both elision and inheritance within the working copy presume the path between a path and its nearest parent with mergeinfo is at the same working revision. If this is not the case then neither inheritance nor elision can occur.

The value of the SVN_PROP_MERGEINFO property is either an empty string (representing empty mergeinfo) or a non-empty string consisting of a path, a colon, and comma separated revision list, containing one or more revision or revision ranges. Revision range start and end points are separated by "-". Revisions and revision ranges may have the optional SVN_MERGEINFO_NONINHERITABLE_STR suffix to signify a non-inheritable revision/revision range.

SVN_PROP_MERGEINFO Value Grammar:

Token Definition


revisionrange REVISION1 "-" REVISION2 revisioneelement (revisionrange | REVISION)"*"? rangelist revisioneelement (COMMA revisioneelement)* revisionline PATHNAME COLON rangelist top "" | (revisionline (NEWLINE revisionline))*

The PATHNAME is the source of a merge and the rangelist the revision(s) merged to the path SVN_PROP_MERGEINFO is set on directly or indirectly via inheritance. PATHNAME must always exist at the specified rangelist and thus a single merge may result in multiple revisionlines if the source was renamed.

Rangelists must be sorted from lowest to highest revision and cannot contain overlapping revisionlistelements. REVISION1 must be less than REVISION2. Consecutive single revisions that can be represented by a revisionrange are allowed however (e.g. '5,6,7,8,9-12' or '5-12' are both acceptable).

Typedef Documentation

The three ways to request mergeinfo affecting a given path.

Since
New in 1.5.
typedef apr_array_header_t svn_rangelist_t

Terminology for data structures that contain mergeinfo.

Subversion commonly uses several data structures to represent mergeinfo in RAM:

(a) Strings (svn_string_t *) containing "unparsed mergeinfo".

(b) svn_rangelist_t, called a "rangelist". An array of non- overlapping merge ranges (svn_merge_range_t *), sorted as said by svn_sort_compare_ranges(). An empty range list is represented by an empty array. Unless specifically noted otherwise, all APIs require rangelists that describe only forward ranges, i.e. the range's start revision is less than its end revision.

(c) svn_mergeinfo_t, called "mergeinfo". A hash mapping merge source paths (const char *, starting with slashes) to non-empty rangelist arrays. A NULL hash is used to represent no mergeinfo and an empty hash is used to represent empty mergeinfo.

(d) svn_mergeinfo_catalog_t, called a "mergeinfo catalog". A hash mapping paths (const char *) to svn_mergeinfo_t.

Both svn_mergeinfo_t and svn_mergeinfo_catalog_t are just typedefs for apr_hash_t *; there is no static type-checking, and you still use standard apr_hash_t functions to interact with them.

Note that while the keys of mergeinfos are always absolute from the repository root, the keys of a catalog may be relative to something else, such as an RA session root.

Function Documentation

svn_mergeinfo_inheritance_t svn_inheritance_from_word ( const char *  word)

Return the appropriate svn_mergeinfo_inheritance_t for word.

word is as returned from svn_inheritance_to_word(). Defaults to svn_mergeinfo_explicit.

Since
New in 1.5.
const char* svn_inheritance_to_word ( svn_mergeinfo_inheritance_t  inherit)

Return a constant string expressing inherit as an English word, i.e., "explicit" (default), "inherited", or "nearest_ancestor".

The string is not localized, as it may be used for client<->server communications.

Since
New in 1.5.
svn_mergeinfo_catalog_t svn_mergeinfo_catalog_dup ( svn_mergeinfo_catalog_t  mergeinfo_catalog,
apr_pool_t *  pool 
)

Return a deep copy of mergeinfo_catalog, allocated in pool.

Since
New in 1.6.
svn_error_t* svn_mergeinfo_catalog_merge ( svn_mergeinfo_catalog_t  mergeinfo_catalog,
svn_mergeinfo_catalog_t  changes_catalog,
apr_pool_t *  result_pool,
apr_pool_t *  scratch_pool 
)

Combine one mergeinfo catalog, changes_catalog, into another mergeinfo catalog mergeinfo_catalog.

If both catalogs have mergeinfo for the same key, use svn_mergeinfo_merge() to combine the mergeinfos.

Additions to mergeinfo_catalog are deep copies allocated in result_pool. Temporary allocations are made in scratch_pool.

Since
New in 1.7.
svn_error_t* svn_mergeinfo_diff ( svn_mergeinfo_t *  deleted,
svn_mergeinfo_t *  added,
svn_mergeinfo_t  mergefrom,
svn_mergeinfo_t  mergeto,
svn_boolean_t  consider_inheritance,
apr_pool_t *  pool 
)

Similar to svn_mergeinfo_diff2(), but users only one pool.

Deprecated:
Provided for backward compatibility with the 1.7 API.
Since
New in 1.5.
svn_error_t* svn_mergeinfo_diff2 ( svn_mergeinfo_t *  deleted,
svn_mergeinfo_t *  added,
svn_mergeinfo_t  mergefrom,
svn_mergeinfo_t  mergeto,
svn_boolean_t  consider_inheritance,
apr_pool_t *  result_pool,
apr_pool_t *  scratch_pool 
)

Calculate the delta between two mergeinfos, mergefrom and mergeto (either or both of which may be NULL meaning an empty mergeinfo).

Place the result in *deleted and *added (neither output argument may be NULL), both allocated in result_pool. The resulting *deleted and *added will not be null.

consider_inheritance determines how the rangelists in the two hashes are compared for equality. If consider_inheritance is FALSE, then the start and end revisions of the svn_merge_range_t's being compared are the only factors considered when determining equality.

e.g. '/trunk: 1,3-4*,5' == '/trunk: 1,3-5'

If consider_inheritance is TRUE, then the inheritability of the svn_merge_range_t's is also considered and must be the same for two otherwise identical ranges to be judged equal.

e.g. '/trunk: 1,3-4*,5' != '/trunk: 1,3-5' '/trunk: 1,3-4*,5' == '/trunk: 1,3-4*,5' '/trunk: 1,3-4,5' == '/trunk: 1,3-4,5'

Since
New in 1.8.
svn_mergeinfo_t svn_mergeinfo_dup ( svn_mergeinfo_t  mergeinfo,
apr_pool_t *  pool 
)

Return a deep copy of mergeinfo, allocated in pool.

Since
New in 1.5.
svn_error_t* svn_mergeinfo_inheritable ( svn_mergeinfo_t *  inheritable_mergeinfo,
svn_mergeinfo_t  mergeinfo,
const char *  path,
svn_revnum_t  start,
svn_revnum_t  end,
apr_pool_t *  pool 
)

Like svn_mergeinfo_inheritable2, but always finds inheritable mergeinfo.

Since
New in 1.5.
Deprecated:
Provided for backward compatibility with the 1.6 API.
svn_error_t* svn_mergeinfo_inheritable2 ( svn_mergeinfo_t *  inheritable_mergeinfo,
svn_mergeinfo_t  mergeinfo,
const char *  path,
svn_revnum_t  start,
svn_revnum_t  end,
svn_boolean_t  inheritable,
apr_pool_t *  result_pool,
apr_pool_t *  scratch_pool 
)

Return a deep copy of mergeinfo, excluding all non-inheritable svn_merge_range_t if inheritable is TRUE or excluding all inheritable svn_merge_range_t otherwise.

If start and end are valid revisions and start is less than or equal to end, then exclude only the non-inheritable revisions that intersect inclusively with the range defined by start and end. If path is not NULL remove non-inheritable ranges only for path. If all ranges are removed for a given path then remove that path as well. If all paths are removed or rangelist is empty then set *inheritable_rangelist to an empty array. Allocate the copy in result_pool, use scratch_pool for temporary allocations.

Since
New in 1.7.
svn_error_t* svn_mergeinfo_intersect ( svn_mergeinfo_t *  mergeinfo,
svn_mergeinfo_t  mergeinfo1,
svn_mergeinfo_t  mergeinfo2,
apr_pool_t *  pool 
)

Like svn_mergeinfo_intersect2, but always considers inheritance.

Deprecated:
Provided for backward compatibility with the 1.6 API.
svn_error_t* svn_mergeinfo_intersect2 ( svn_mergeinfo_t *  mergeinfo,
svn_mergeinfo_t  mergeinfo1,
svn_mergeinfo_t  mergeinfo2,
svn_boolean_t  consider_inheritance,
apr_pool_t *  result_pool,
apr_pool_t *  scratch_pool 
)

Find the intersection of two mergeinfos, mergeinfo1 and mergeinfo2, and place the result in *mergeinfo, which is (deeply) allocated in result_pool.

Temporary allocations will be performed in scratch_pool.

consider_inheritance determines how to account for the inheritability of the two mergeinfo's ranges when calculating the range equivalence,

See Also
svn_rangelist_intersect().
Since
New in 1.7.
svn_error_t* svn_mergeinfo_merge ( svn_mergeinfo_t  mergeinfo,
svn_mergeinfo_t  changes,
apr_pool_t *  pool 
)

Like svn_mergeinfo_merge2, but uses only one pool.

Deprecated:
Provided for backward compatibility with the 1.5 API.
svn_error_t* svn_mergeinfo_merge2 ( svn_mergeinfo_t  mergeinfo,
svn_mergeinfo_t  changes,
apr_pool_t *  result_pool,
apr_pool_t *  scratch_pool 
)

Merge a shallow copy of one mergeinfo, changes, into another mergeinfo mergeinfo.

Rangelists for merge source paths common to changes and mergeinfo may result in new rangelists; these are allocated in result_pool. Temporary allocations are made in scratch_pool.

When intersecting rangelists for a path are merged, the inheritability of the resulting svn_merge_range_t depends on the inheritability of the operands. If two non-inheritable ranges are merged the result is always non-inheritable, in all other cases the resulting range is inheritable.

e.g. '/A: 1,3-4' merged with '/A: 1,3,4*,5' –> '/A: 1,3-5' '/A: 1,3-4*' merged with '/A: 1,3,4*,5' –> '/A: 1,3,4*,5'

Since
New in 1.8.
svn_error_t* svn_mergeinfo_parse ( svn_mergeinfo_t *  mergeinfo,
const char *  input,
apr_pool_t *  pool 
)

Parse the mergeinfo from input into *mergeinfo.

If no mergeinfo is available, return an empty mergeinfo (never NULL). Perform temporary allocations in pool.

If input is not a grammatically correct SVN_PROP_MERGEINFO property, contains overlapping revision ranges of differing inheritability, or revision ranges with a start revision greater than or equal to its end revision, or contains paths mapped to empty revision ranges, then return SVN_ERR_MERGEINFO_PARSE_ERROR. Unordered revision ranges are allowed, but will be sorted when placed into *mergeinfo. Overlapping revision ranges of the same inheritability are also allowed, but will be combined into a single range when placed into *mergeinfo.

input may contain relative merge source paths, but these are converted to absolute paths in *mergeinfo.

Since
New in 1.5.
svn_error_t* svn_mergeinfo_remove ( svn_mergeinfo_t *  mergeinfo,
svn_mergeinfo_t  eraser,
svn_mergeinfo_t  whiteboard,
apr_pool_t *  pool 
)

Like svn_mergeinfo_remove2, but always considers inheritance.

Deprecated:
Provided for backward compatibility with the 1.6 API.
svn_error_t* svn_mergeinfo_remove2 ( svn_mergeinfo_t *  mergeinfo,
svn_mergeinfo_t  eraser,
svn_mergeinfo_t  whiteboard,
svn_boolean_t  consider_inheritance,
apr_pool_t *  result_pool,
apr_pool_t *  scratch_pool 
)

Removes eraser (the subtrahend) from whiteboard (the minuend), and places the resulting difference in *mergeinfo.

Allocates *mergeinfo in result_pool. Temporary allocations will be performed in scratch_pool.

consider_inheritance determines how to account for the inheritability of the two mergeinfo's ranges when calculating the range equivalence, as described for svn_mergeinfo_diff().

Since
New in 1.7.
svn_error_t* svn_mergeinfo_sort ( svn_mergeinfo_t  mergeinfo,
apr_pool_t *  pool 
)

Take a hash of mergeinfo in mergeinfo, and sort the rangelists associated with each key (in place).

TODO(miapi): mergeinfos should always be sorted. This should be a private function.

Since
New in 1.5
svn_error_t* svn_mergeinfo_to_string ( svn_string_t **  output,
svn_mergeinfo_t  mergeinput,
apr_pool_t *  pool 
)

Take a mergeinfo in mergeinput, and convert it to unparsed mergeinfo.

Set *output to the result, allocated in pool. If input contains no elements, set *output to the empty string.

mergeinput may contain relative merge source paths, but these are converted to absolute paths in *output.

Since
New in 1.5.
svn_error_t* svn_rangelist_diff ( svn_rangelist_t **  deleted,
svn_rangelist_t **  added,
const svn_rangelist_t from,
const svn_rangelist_t to,
svn_boolean_t  consider_inheritance,
apr_pool_t *  pool 
)

Calculate the delta between two rangelists consisting of svn_merge_range_t * elements (sorted in ascending order), from and to, and place the result in *deleted and *added (neither output argument will ever be NULL).

consider_inheritance determines how to account for the inheritability of the two rangelist's ranges when calculating the diff, as described for svn_mergeinfo_diff().

Since
New in 1.5.
svn_rangelist_t* svn_rangelist_dup ( const svn_rangelist_t rangelist,

svn_error_t* svn_rangelist_inheritable ( svn_rangelist_t **  inheritable_rangelist,
const svn_rangelist_t rangelist,
svn_revnum_t  start,
svn_revnum_t  end,
apr_pool_t *  pool 
)

Like svn_rangelist_inheritable2, but always finds inheritable ranges.

Since
New in 1.5.
Deprecated:
Provided for backward compatibility with the 1.6 API.
svn_error_t* svn_rangelist_inheritable2 ( svn_rangelist_t **  inheritable_rangelist,

svn_revnum_t  start,
svn_revnum_t  end,
svn_boolean_t  inheritable,
apr_pool_t *  result_pool,
apr_pool_t *  scratch_pool 
)

Return a deep copy of svn_merge_range_t *'s in rangelist excluding all non-inheritable svn_merge_range_t if inheritable is TRUE or excluding all inheritable svn_merge_range_t otherwise.

If start and end are valid revisions and start is less than or equal to end, then exclude only the non-inheritable revision ranges that intersect inclusively with the range defined by start and end. If rangelist contains no elements, return an empty array. Allocate the copy in result_pool, use scratch_pool for temporary allocations.

Since
New in 1.7.
svn_error_t* svn_rangelist_intersect ( svn_rangelist_t **  rangelist,
const svn_rangelist_t rangelist1,
const svn_rangelist_t rangelist2,
svn_boolean_t  consider_inheritance,
apr_pool_t *  pool 
)

Find the intersection of two rangelists consisting of svn_merge_range_t * elements, rangelist1 and rangelist2, and place the result in *rangelist (which is never NULL).

consider_inheritance determines how to account for the inheritability of the two rangelist's ranges when calculating the intersection,

See Also
svn_mergeinfo_diff(). If consider_inheritance is FALSE then ranges with different inheritance can intersect, but the resulting *rangelist is non-inheritable only if the corresponding ranges from both rangelist1 and rangelist2 are non-inheritable. If consider_inheritance is TRUE, then ranges with different inheritance can never intersect.

Note: rangelist1 and rangelist2 must be sorted as said by svn_sort_compare_ranges(). *rangelist is guaranteed to be in sorted order.

Since
New in 1.5.
svn_error_t* svn_rangelist_merge ( svn_rangelist_t **  rangelist,
const svn_rangelist_t changes,
apr_pool_t *  pool 
)

Like svn_rangelist_merge2(), but with rangelist as an input/output argument.

This function always allocates a new rangelist in pool and returns its result in *rangelist. It does not modify *rangelist in place. If not used carefully, this function can use up a lot of memory if called in a loop.

It performs an extra adjacent range compaction round to make sure non collapsed input ranges are compacted in the result.

svn_error_t* svn_rangelist_merge2 ( svn_rangelist_t rangelist,
const svn_rangelist_t changes,
apr_pool_t *  result_pool,
apr_pool_t *  scratch_pool 
)

Merge two rangelists consisting of svn_merge_range_t * elements, rangelist and changes, placing the results in rangelist.

New elements added to rangelist are allocated in result_pool. Either rangelist may be empty.

When intersecting rangelists are merged, the inheritability of the resulting svn_merge_range_t depends on the inheritability of the operands: see svn_mergeinfo_merge().

Note: rangelist and changes must be sorted as said by svn_sort_compare_ranges(). rangelist is guaranteed to remain in sorted order and be compacted to the minimal number of ranges needed to represent the merged result.

If the original rangelist contains non-collapsed adjacent ranges, the final result is not guaranteed to be compacted either.

Use scratch_pool for temporary allocations.

svn_boolean_t  consider_inheritance,
apr_pool_t *  pool 
)

Removes eraser (the subtrahend) from whiteboard (the minuend), and places the resulting difference in output.

Note: eraser and whiteboard must be sorted as said by svn_sort_compare_ranges(). output is guaranteed to be in sorted order.

consider_inheritance determines how to account for the svn_merge_range_t inheritable field when comparing whiteboard's and *eraser's rangelists for equality.

svn_error_t* svn_rangelist_reverse ( svn_rangelist_t rangelist,
apr_pool_t *  pool 
)

Reverse rangelist, and the start and end fields of each range in rangelist, in place.

TODO(miapi): Is this really a valid function? Rangelists that aren't sorted, or rangelists containing reverse ranges, are generally not valid in mergeinfo code. Can we rewrite the two places where this is used?

svn_error_t* svn_rangelist_to_string ( svn_string_t **  output,
const svn_rangelist_t rangelist,
apr_pool_t *  pool 
)

Take an array of svn_merge_range_t *'s in rangelist, and convert it back to a text format rangelist in output.

If rangelist contains no elements, sets output to the empty string.
