Maybe it would, but I think it'd require some non-trivial changes.

Hello,

Just one simple question=C2=A0: why do we need some specific code in
vc-find-revision to be in charge of selecting the coding scheme and
doing the decoding.

My understanding is that, say for svn backend, what you want to do is
to get the same as

1) svn --non-interactive cat  my_non_ascii_named_file.tex  > temp_file

2) visit temp_file


Instead of doing that redirection into a temporary file, =C2=AB=C2=A0svn
--non-interactive cat my_non_ascii_named_file.tex=C2=A0=C2=BB is executed i=
n a
process, and the output is directly inserted into a buffer. Hence the
troubles=E2=80=A6

Why not use a temporary file=C2=A0?

I understand that a temporary file has several drawbacks=C2=A0:

1) it is probably slower, at least for small files,

2) you have to do some clean-up

3) there is a potential security breach to leave tacks on a system file.


Having had a look at find-file lisp code, I noticed that under the hood,
the function insert-file-content is what does the real job of converting
the file bytes to a buffer. Now, looking at the C code of
Finsert_file_contents in fileio.c, I noticed that there is some
provision for not regular files, like pipes.

I was wondering whether there was some intention at some point of time
to use that function in order to recollect in a unified way the output
of a process into a buffer.

Wouldn't that help with our decoding issues ?

  V.

Yes there are. For instance if you edit a document with LaTeX and use
pdflatex + koi8 for the encoding, then all the compilation error
messages showing the error messages interleaved with pieces of text will
be a byte stream where the pieces of text will correspond to
characteters coded in koi8.

But they are also interleaved with filenames which are also a byte
stream which correspond to characters encoded with some encoding
depending on the filesystem, for instance that will be utf8 for an
MSW-10 machine as it seems that my pdflatex port (MiKTeX) has them in
this format =E2=80=94 for filenames all in ASCII that will just make no
difference because both utf8 & koi8 are supersets of ASCII. Internally,
AFAIK MSW10 uses UTF16, I speculate that my pdflatex port to MSW uses
UTF16 wchar_t to access the files and does some utf8/utf16
encoding/decoding w.r.t to input/output with tex source code/tex log.

Of course users will want to have the log shown with character decoding
using koi8, so that the pieces of text in the log are understandable, so
that will mess-up the non-ASCII filenames, for instance if the filename
is =C2=AB=C2=A0=D0=9C=D0=B0=D0=BA=D1=80=D0=BE=D0=BD=E2=80=94=D0=A3=D0=B7=D1=
=83=D1=80=D0=BF=D0=B0=D1=82=D0=BE=D1=80.tex=C2=A0=C2=BB , it will show out =
like
=C2=AB=C2=A0=D0=BF=C2=B0=D0=BF=E2=95=9F=D0=BF=E2=95=A8=D1=8F=E2=94=80=D0=BF=
=E2=95=AC=D0=BF=E2=95=AB=D0=91=E2=94=80=E2=96=A0=D0=BF=D1=91=D0=BF=E2=95=A5=
=D1=8F=E2=94=90=D1=8F=E2=94=80=D0=BF=C2=A9=D0=BF=E2=95=9F=D1=8F=E2=94=8C=D0=
=BF=E2=95=AC=D1=8F=E2=94=80.tex=C2=A0=C2=BB in the log, and AUCTeX won't
be able to jump at the error line when you do =C2=AB=C2=A0M-g n=C2=A0=C2=BB=
 =E2=80=94 maybe someday
I submit some contribution for AUCTeX to be configurable to decode the
filenames, or maybe by that time I simply use xelatex and everything is
in utf8 :-/


On the other hand the pdflatex command will accept arguments encoded in
whatever the OS requires =E2=80=94 I don't know what my pdflatex port inter=
nally
does, probably it has some =C2=AB=C2=A0int wmain(int ac, wchar_t const* av[=
])=C2=A0=C2=BB
prototype and does some utf16/utf8 encoding of the command line args in
order to get a byte stream.

So, still under MSW, if my pdflatex is launched from a powershell
window, filenames and any arguments are passed to the command as wide
chars with utf16 encoding and pdflatex.

So if the filename is =E2=84=961.tex, and I type from a powershell prompt:

  pdflatex =E2=84=961.tex

that will work fine =E2=80=94 provided that the file exists =E2=80=94 becau=
se, although
the character =C2=AB=C2=A0=E2=84=96=C2=A0=C2=BB does not exist in window125=
2, both powershell and my
pdflatex port use utf16.

Now, if I try the same command from a cmd prompt, funnilly that also
will work =E2=80=94 however a DOS .bat file encoded in utf-8 with the same
command, even if you launch cmd with /U option=E2=80=A6

But if now I try this command from Emacs (with =C2=AB=C2=A0M-x compile=C2=
=A0=C2=BB, or
=C2=AB=C2=A0M-&=C2=A0=C2=BB, or directly by eval of =C2=AB=C2=A0(call-proce=
ss "pdflatex" nil t nil
"=E2=84=961.tex")=C2=A0=C2=BB that will not work either. And that will not =
work either
from a *shell* buffer using cmdproxy.exe. This is probably because Emacs
uses the standard system call =C2=AB=C2=A0system(=E2=80=A6)=C2=A0=C2=BB fun=
ction =E2=80=94 I speculate =E2=80=94 and
the latter accepts windows1252 encoded command line, and not the
microsoft specific _wsystem one.

BTW, I don't know whether _wsystem is ported to MinGW, I would not be
surprised if it is not=C2=A0: for instance =C2=AB=C2=A0int main(int ac, wch=
ar_t
const*av[])=C2=A0=C2=BB prototypes aren't ported to MinGW, they do a linker=
 error,
and one has to resort to GetCommandLineW & CommandLineToArgvW windows
API functions. An alternative is 1) to use the powershell quote syntax
for the command line + utf16 enocoding, 2) to base-64 encode the command
line, and 3) pass the encoded block to powershell with the
-EncodedCommand option through the usual system(=E2=80=A6)  call.


So, to summarise :

1. encoding of filenames, encoding of command line, and encoding of file
   content are 3 different things. So, it is a bit surprising if
   coding-system-for-write affects all of them in the same way.

2. filename encoding may be different on the command line and on the
   input/output streams (e.g. pdflatex called from powershell has utf16
   on the command line, and utf8 in the files for filenames.

3. filename/argument encoding depends on the command (under MSW, some
   commands have =C2=AB=C2=A0int main(int ac, char const*av[])=C2=A0=C2=BB =
under the hood
   and as such they expect arguments to be windows1252 encoded =E2=80=94 in
   Western Europe =E2=80=94 other have =C2=AB=C2=A0int main(int ac, wchar_t=
 const*av[])=C2=A0=C2=BB
   under the hood and as such they expect utf16 encoded arguments. So
   with the first type of command you can have =C2=AB=C2=A0=C5=93=C2=A0=C2=
=BB but not =C2=AB=C2=A0=E2=84=96=C2=A0=C2=BB in
   the arguments, while with the second type you can have both of them.

I understand that what we currently do, but is it really inevitable?
I know you can't transfer an arbitrarily large text with a single `write`
at one end of a pipe and a single `read` at the other (contrary to what
happens with files), but it should be possible to use chunks large
enough that the efficiency is comparable.

> and need to enlarge the gap each time.

Yes, this used to be a real problems in set-buffer-multibyte (with O(N=B2)
behavior), but nowadays it should be a relatively small constant factor.
Of course, if needed, we could provide some way for the Elisp code to
"preallocate" space to avoid resizing the buffer too many times.

[ Goes on dreaming about a buffer representation made of a tree of
  immutable text-chunks... ]

Right.   Maybe we could improve the backend API, but that's a side
problem: the real pressing problem is just cruft and should not be too
hard to fix.

FWIW, I find it cleaner to put the result in a buffer than in a file,
since with files we have to choose a file name, which implies things
like race conditions, accessrights/security issues, interaction with
Tramp, and whatnot.

So I think the API seems clean enough.  Doesn't insert-file-contents do
all the decoding dance done in find-file (such as
auto-coding-regexp-alist, ...)?

> Instead, we invoke the VCS with output redirected to a pipe, slowly

Why should reading from a pipe be slower than from a file?

> then write the resulting buffer to a file.  Why?

The front-end part may want to do that, but not necessarily.
We did that back in the CVS days because it took a long time to extract
a particular revision, so this was a way to cache the result.

With Git, I find that I basically never want to save the result to
a file.

The front-end functions (vc-find-revision-* and vc-default-revert)
should not bind coding-system-for-read/write and should leave that to
the backend, since it seems the backends need to do this kind of
coding-system control more finely.

Agreed: it should be the backend's responsibility to control the
encoding/decoding setup in order for the result in the buffer to be
undecoded bytes (it'd be nice to be able to do it at only one spot
instead of doing it "by hand" in each and every backend, but IIUC this
is not an option).

Isn't that sub-optimal design, then?  Those back-ends that can produce
a file for a given revision (there are at least 3 of them, AFAIK)
should be left to their devices; those which cannot and use some kind
of 'cat' command instead can be invoked with output redirected to a
file.  This should be lightning-fast with most (all?) VCSes.  Instead,
we invoke the VCS with output redirected to a pipe, slowly read that
output from the pipe into a buffer, then write the resulting buffer to
a file.  Why?

If vc-find-revision and vc-find-revision-no-save need to enforce
no-conversion, then why do most of the back-ends do that as well?  If
we decide that back-ends produce undecoded buffers, then vc.el
shouldn't be bothered with forcing coding-system-for-read/write at
all, right?  This duplication is a large part of the problem here.

In addition, while I could understand binding of
coding-system-for-read in the backend's find-revision (assuming we
want the resulting buffer remain undecoded), why should the back-end
also bind coding-system-for-write?  I see absolutely no reason for
that.  E.g., look at this example:

  (defun vc-hg-find-revision (file rev buffer)
    (let ((coding-system-for-read 'binary)
	  (coding-system-for-write 'binary))
      (if rev
	  (vc-hg-command buffer 0 file "cat" "-r" rev)
	(vc-hg-command buffer 0 file "cat"))))

Why on earth does this bind coding-system-for-write, when it doesn't
write anything at all, it only reads?

But vc-git.el, for example, uses both in its find-revision
implementation.  It therefore must use more complicated juggling with
binding the various coding-system variables.  Once again, this is an
argument in favor of leaving the encoding/decoding stuff to the
back-end.

It happens, yes.  Which is why by default coding-system-for-write is
not bound.  When you bind it while invoking a subprocess, you need to
know what you are doing.  If there's a conflict between the two
encodings, there are a couple of ways to deal with that.

However, in the case in point, my reading of the code indicates that
there's no need to bind coding-system-for-write at all.  It seems we
do that due to some copy/paste habit more than due to a real need.
Let's see if I succeed in convincing you and Stefan.

Aren't there any programs that expect one encoding for their arguments, 
yet output contents in other encodings sometimes?

Then the front/middle end shouldn't set anything up for the backend, but
the backend still needs to return just undecoded bytes.

The `find-revision` backend operation must put the revision's bytes into
the provided buffer, indeed similarly to when we visit a file.
But the difference is that in 99% of the cases, the bytes don't come
from a file but from a process's stdout, so the backed can't directly
use the "visit a file" trick.

Hmm... looking at the code I see 3 places where we call the
`find-revision` backend:

- vc-find-revision-save
- vc-find-revision-no-save
- vc-default-revert

The last one should indeed call the backend directly (as it currently
does) and should be changed not to bind coding-system-for-read/write and
instead to assume that the backend deals with bytes.

The other two are begging to be unified to reduce code redundancy and
are the ones that need the do the file-like decoding (and they indeed do
it).

Not really forgetting, no.  Instead I was talking specifically about
things like `find-revision` (i.e. about the content of files).
For filenames, commit messages and other metadata the situation is quite
different, indeed.

But every back-end has its own peculiar ways to do the job.  E.g., Git
needs to call "git ls-files" first, and we then need to read the file
names before calling "git cat".  Other VCSes don't necessarily need
that.  So different implementations cannot be worked around and no
higher layers can even know what the lower layers do to set up
encoding correctly for all of them, at least not in most cases.

What do you mean by "how"?  Just do the normal I/O, and all of those
will be taken care of.  Like when we visit a file.  What am I missing?

So you are saying that no other VC function cal call the backend's
find-revision method?  But we already have 2 more functions that do
it, and I see no problems with doing that.

I don't think this is possible in general, because different callers
have different needs wrt to encoding/decoding.

You forget VCS operations that return stuff other than the complete
file's contents, like vc-log or vc-dff or calls that return file names
etc.

It'd be better to decode "on the fly" rather than first insert the byte
stream in a buffer and then decode it.  No doubt.
But I can't see how to do that and handle -*-coding-*-,
auto-coding-regexp-alist, and friends.

> and it also pushes this obscure art to application levels,

The "front-end" is `vc-find-revision`.  All other code should be layered
on top of that one, so it's done at only one place.  If that doesn't
work (because vc-find-revision is not flexible enough) then we should
move this decoding code to a middle-layer between vc-find-revision and
(vc-call find-revision ...) that all users of `find-revision` can then use.

> insist on any encoding, except where the VCS requires it, and it

I don't know of any VCS that enforces any kind of encoding on the files
it manages.  AFAIK they pretty much all manage files made of lines where
the lines are made of bytes (with some extra accommodations for files
not made of lines).  Some try to handle line-end conversion to
some extent, but that doesn't really affect us anyway.

How is vc-annotate relevant to vc-git-find-revision and the issue at
hand?  The last thing vc-find-revision does is to visit the file
written by the back-end, and it visits it normally, with
find-file-noselect, which decodes the contents as usual.  The problems
I see are with forcing no-conversion in the intermediate operations in
the back-end, where it extracts the specified version to a buffer.

We already have in vc-git a variable that holds that encoding (UTF-8
by default).

It's not a bug, it's a documented feature.  coding-system-for-write
affects both I/O from and to a subprocess and the encoding of the
command-line arguments we pass to that subprocess.  That's why we
should be extra-careful when binding coding-system-for-write around
invocations of other programs.

Why do we need to leave this to the front end?  It's a waste of cycles
to do decoding manually in Lisp, and it also pushes this obscure art
to application levels, where many Lisp programmers won't know how to
DTRT.

IMO, it's the other way around: by default the back-end should not
insist on any encoding, except where the VCS requires it, and it
should always by default decode the stuff it returns.  The front end
should disable code conversions when needed, and the back-end should
honor that.  This will mostly do TRT, because in the vast majority of
cases users do want eventually to have the stuff decoded, the number
of cases where we want the contrary is minuscule.

VC is just a fancy way of visiting files, so it should normally do the
same, i.e. decode.

This was well before my time, and the only people I remember messing 
with these variables anywhere in VC ever since are you (for 
Windows-related fixes) and Michael. So this might require some digging 
with vc-annotate.

Also note that this affects two commands: one that returns the file 
name, and another, its contents. I'm not sure what encoding 'git 
cat-file blob' outputs in.

The adverse effect sounds like a separate bug.

I can believe it.

I think intuitively, in terms of encoding for the file's contents the
backends should always return a byte-sequence (i.e. with no-conversion)
and the front-end should then decide how to decode it (e.g., obeying
the -*- coding -*- cookie and such).

But since that holds for all backends, ideally they should be called in
such a way that they automatically return bytes (rather than chars)
without any extra effort (e.g. without manually binding
coding-system-for-read/write).

Oh, that was a joke?  Sorry for not catching it.

Thanks, pushed to the emacs-26 branch.

This only fixes some VC backends, there are others which bind
coding-system-for-write in their backend implementations, which looks
simply wrong to me.  I hope we will be able to fix those as well, but
perhaps not in Emacs 26.2, if the changes I have in mind will be
deemed unsafe.

No, I did not, that was just a joke, sorry for not being funny.

Concerning your patch, it made it work.

  Vincent.

Stefan, Dmitry, can I have your attention please?

I think there's a real mess regarding encoding and decoding stuff in
vc-find-revision and its backend implementations.  For some reason,
several backend implementations bind both coding-system-for-read and
coding-system-for-write to no-conversion when they invoke the VCS to
produce a file at a certain revision.  Here's an example from
vc-git.el:

  (defun vc-git-find-revision (file rev buffer)
    (let* (process-file-side-effects
	   (coding-system-for-read 'binary)
	   (coding-system-for-write 'binary)
	   (fullname
	    (let ((fn (vc-git--run-command-string
		       file "ls-files" "-z" "--full-name" "--")))
	      ;; ls-files does not return anything when looking for a
	      ;; revision of a file that has been renamed or removed.
	      (if (string= fn "")
		  (file-relative-name file (vc-git-root default-directory))
		(substring fn 0 -1)))))
      (vc-git-command
       buffer 0
       nil
       "cat-file" "blob" (concat (if rev rev "HEAD") ":" fullname))))

Any idea why it insists on disabling code-conversions?

More generally, the find-revision method is documented as

  Fetch revision REV of file FILE and put it into BUFFER.

There's nothing here that hints that the resulting buffer will not
look like any visited file, i.e. after decoding.  Am I missing
something?

In addition to producing undecoded buffer, these bindings have the
adverse effect of forcing Emacs not to encode command-line arguments
we pass to the VCS, which is the immediate cause for the current bug.

It is my impression that one of the backends did these bindings for
some reason, and then others simply copy-pasted from it.

I'd like to fix this mess, if possible.

Thanks in advance for any insights.

Ouch!  There's a real mess in vc-find-revision and its backend
implementations wrt encoding and decoding.  I will address the general
problem separately, but for now please see if the patch below fixes
the immediate problem with SVN.

Is this part relevant?  You didn't really think we refuse to support
non-ASCII file names, did you?

Hello Emacs experts,

I am trying to do some 'M-x ediff-revision' on a file that is under
version control with svn locally to my MSWindows-10 machine, and that
does not work.

The file path is something like

c:/blah/blah/blah/=EA/trunk/=EA.tex

--=-=-=
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=gb2312
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable


(well, it is not exactly this exact string, but I presume that makes no
difference for our concern=A1=AD).

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable


After some debugging, I realized that the whole thing executes with
default-directory set to "c:/blah/blah/blah/=EA/trunk/" the following
two commands:

 (process-file "svn" nil t nil "--non-interactive" "status" "-v" "=EA.tex")

and then:

 (process-file "svn" nil t nil "--non-interactive" "cat" "=EA.tex")

The first command works quite fine, but the second one fails, and having
a look info the " *temp*" buffer, I saw that svn angrilly barks with
some error message like this one:

--=-=-=
Content-Type: text/plain
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit


--8<----8<----8<----8<----8<-- begin -->8---->8---->8---->8---->8----
svn: warning: W200005: 'C:\blah\blah\blah\\trunk\ª.tex' is not under version control
svn: E200009: Could not cat all targets because some targets are not versioned
svn: E200009: Illegal target for the requested operation
--8<----8<----8<----8<----8<--  end  -->8---->8---->8---->8---->8----

looking more carefully at things, and having inspected the C code of
function call-process, I realized that the variable
coding-system-for-write has some importance, and tracing this I realized
that when the first svn command is called the variable
coding-system-for-write is nil, while when the second svn command is
called it is 'no-conversion, which makes it fail.

The problem is that in the vc-find-revision function you have somewhere
this setting=A0:

 (let ( =A1=AD (coding-system-for-write 'no-conversion) =A1=AD) =A1=AD)

here is a backtrace where I marked two lines X and Y.

Line Z is where the svn command are called, and there a function
process-file is called, this function calls in turn function
call-process. Function call-process encodes the arguments when
necessary, but the setting of coding-system-for-write to 'no-conversion
disturbs that, and OUCH, the command line passed to svn is not properly
encoded, so with some reason svn unhappilly barks.
