* jk/maint-cleanup-after-exec-failure: git: use run_command() to execute dashed externals run_command(): help callers distinguish errors run_command(): handle missing command errors more gracefully git: s/run_command/run_builtin/
2009-01-28git: use run_command() to execute dashed externalsJeff King
We used to simply try calling execvp(); if it succeeded, then we were done and the new program was running. If it didn't, then we knew that it wasn't a valid command. Unfortunately, this interacted badly with the new pager handling. Now that git remains the parent process and the pager is spawned, git has to hang around until the pager is finished. We install an atexit handler to do this, but that handler never gets called if we successfully run execvp. You could see this behavior by running any dashed external using a pager (e.g., "git -p stash list"). The command finishes running, but the pager is still going. In the case of less, it then gets an error reading from the terminal and exits, potentially leaving the terminal in a broken state (and not showing the output). This patch just uses run_command() to try running the dashed external. The parent git process then waits for the external process to complete and then handles the pager cleanup as it would for an internal command.

2009-01-28git: s/run_command/run_builtin/Jeff King
There is a static function called run_command which conflicts with the library function in run-command.c; this isn't a problem currently, but prevents including run-command.h in git.c. This patch just renames the static function to something more specific and non-conflicting. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2009-01-05git.c: make autocorrected aliases workAdeodato Simó
help_unknown_cmd() is able to autocorrect a command to an alias, and not only to internal or external commands. However, main() was not passing the autocorrected command through handle_alias(), hence it failed if it was an alias. This commit makes the autocorrected command go through handle_alias(), once handle_internal_command() and execv_dashed_external() have been tried. Since this is done twice in main() now, moved that logic to a new run_argv() function. Also, print the same "Expansion of alias 'x' failed" message when the alias was autocorrected, rather than a generic "Failed to run command 'x'".

This comes from conversation at the GitTogether where we thought it would be helpful to be able to teach people to 'stage' files because it tends to cause confusion when told that they have to keep 'add'ing them. This continues the movement to start referring to the index as a staging area (eg: the --staged alias to 'git diff').

This patch introduces a modified Damerau-Levenshtein algorithm into Git's code base, and uses it with the following penalties to show some similar commands when an unknown command was encountered: swap = 0, insertion = 1, substitution = 2, deletion = 4 A typical output would now look like this: $ git sm git: 'sm' is not a git-command. See 'git --help'. Did you mean one of these? am rm The cut-off is at similarity rating 6, which was empirically determined to give sensible results. As a convenience, if there is only one candidate, Git continues under the assumption that the user mistyped it.

2008-07-06Allow per-command pager configJeff King
There is great debate over whether some commands should set up a pager automatically. This patch allows individuals to set their own pager preferences for each command, overriding the default. For example, to disable the pager for git status: git config pager.status false If "--pager" or "--no-pager" is specified on the command line, it takes precedence over the config option. There are two caveats: - you can turn on the pager for plumbing commands. Combined with "core.pager = always", this will probably break a lot of things. Don't do it. - This only works for builtin commands. The reason is somewhat complex: Calling git_config before we do setup_git_directory has bad side effects, because it wants to know where the git_dir is to find ".git/config". Unfortunately, we cannot call setup_git_directory indiscriminately, because some builtins (like "init") break if we do. For builtins, this is OK, since we can just wait until after we call setup_git_directory. But for aliases, we don't know until we expand (recursively) which command we're doing. This should not be a huge problem for aliases, which can simply use "--pager" or "--no-pager" in the alias as appropriate. For external commands, however, we don't know we even have an external command until we exec it, and by then it is too late to check the config. An alternative approach would be to have a config mode where we don't bother looking at .git/config, but only at the user and system config files. This would make the behavior consistent across builtins, aliases, and external commands, at the cost of not allowing per-repo pager config for at all.

2008-06-09Ignore .gitattributes in bare repositoriesRené Scharfe
Attributes can be specified at three different places: the internal table of default values, the file $GIT_DIR/info/attributes and files named .gitattributes in the work tree. Since bare repositories don't have a work tree, git should ignore any .gitattributes files there. This patch makes git do that, so the only way left for a user to specify attributes in a bare repository is the file info/attributes (in addition to changing the defaults and recompiling). In addition, git-check-attr is now allowed to run without a work tree. Like any user of the code in attr.c, it ignores the .gitattributes files when run in a bare repository. It can still read from info/attributes. Signed-off-by: Rene Scharfe <rene.scharfe@lsrfire.ath.cx> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

The only differences in behavior should be: - git checkout -m with non-trivial merging won't print out merge-recursive messages (see the change in t7201-co.sh) - git checkout -- paths... will give a sensible error message if HEAD is invalid as a commit. - some intermediate states which were written to disk in the shell version (in particular, index states) are only kept in memory in this version, and therefore these can no longer be revealed by later write operations becoming impossible. - when we change branches, we discard MERGE_MSG, SQUASH_MSG, and rr-cache/MERGE_RR, like reset always has. I'm not 100% sure I got the merge recursive setup exactly right; the base for a non-trivial merge in the shell code doesn't seem theoretically justified to me, but I tried to match it anyway, and the tests all pass this way.
