2007-12-03Add 'git fast-export', the sister of 'git fast-import'Johannes Schindelin
This program dumps (parts of) a git repository in the format that fast-import understands. For clarity's sake, it does not use the 'inline' method of specifying blobs in the commits, but builds the blobs before building the commits. Since signed tags' signatures will not necessarily be valid (think transformations after the export, or excluding revisions, changing the history), there are 4 modes to handle them: abort (default), ignore, warn and strip. The latter just turns the tags into unsigned ones. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2007-11-19Make git-clean a builtinShawn Bohrer
This replaces git-clean.sh with builtin-clean.c, and moves git-clean.sh to the examples. This also introduces a change in behavior when removing directories explicitly specified as a path. For example currently: 1. When dir has only untracked files, these two behave differently: $ git clean -n dir $ git clean -n dir/ the former says "Would not remove dir/", while the latter would say "Would remove dir/untracked" for all paths under it, but not the directory itself. With -d, the former would stop refusing, however since the user explicitly asked to remove the directory the -d is no longer required. 2. When there are more parameters: $ git clean -n dir foo $ git clean -n dir/ foo both cases refuse to remove dir/ unless -d is specified. Once again since both cases requested to remove dir the -d is no longer required. Thanks to Johannes Schindelin for the conversion to using the parse-options API.

2007-10-30use only the $PATH for exec'ing git commandsScott R Parish
We need to correctly set up $PATH for non-c based git commands. Since we already do this, we can just use that $PATH and execvp, instead of looping over the paths with execve. This patch adds a setup_path() function to exec_cmd.c, which sets the $PATH order correctly for our search order. execv_git_cmd() is stripped down to setting up argv and calling execvp(). git.c's main() only only needs to call setup_path().

2007-10-21Deduce exec_path also from calls to git with a relative pathJohannes Schindelin
There is already logic in the git wrapper to deduce the exec_path from argv[0], when the git wrapper was called with an absolute path. Extend that logic to handle relative paths as well.

2007-09-19Make fetch a builtinDaniel Barkalow
Thanks to Johannes Schindelin for review and fixes, and Julian Phillips for the original C translation. This changes a few small bits of behavior: branch.<name>.merge is parsed as if it were the lhs of a fetch refspec, and does not have to exactly match the actual lhs of a refspec, so long as it is a valid abbreviation for the same ref. branch.<name>.merge is no longer ignored if the remote is configured with a branches/* file. Neither behavior is useful, because there can only be one ref that gets fetched, but this is more consistant. Also, fetch prints different information to standard out.

2007-09-12Make "git reset" a builtin.Carlos Rica
This replaces the script "git-reset.sh" with "builtin-reset.c". A few git commands used in the script are called from the builtin also: "ls-files" to check for unmerged files, "read-tree" for resetting the index file in "mixed" and "hard" resets, and "update-index" to refresh at the end in the "mixed" reset and also for the option that gets selected paths into the index. The reset option with paths was implemented by Johannes Schindelin. Since the option that gets selected paths into the index is not a "reset" like the others because it does not change the HEAD at all, now the command is showing a warning when the "--mixed" option is supplied for that purpose. The following table shows the behaviour of "git reset" for the different supported options, where X means "changing" the HEAD, index or working tree: reset: --soft --mixed --hard -- <paths> HEAD X X X - index - X X X files - - X - Signed-off-by: Carlos Rica <jasampler@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2007-08-28git --bare cmd: do not unconditionally nuke GIT_DIRJunio C Hamano
"GIT_DIR=some.where git --bare cmd" and worse yet "git --git-dir=some.where --bare cmd" were very confusing. They both ignored git-dir specified, and instead made $cwd as GIT_DIR. This changes --bare not to override existing GIT_DIR. This has been like this for a long time. Let's hope nobody sane relied on this insane behaviour.

2007-08-28Fix initialization of a bare repositoryJunio C Hamano
Here is my attempt to fix this with a minimally intrusive patch. * As "git --bare init" cannot tell if it was called with --bare or just "GIT_DIR=. git init", I added an explicit assignment of is_bare_repository_cfg on the codepath for "git --bare". * GIT_WORK_TREE alone without GIT_DIR does not make any sense, nor GIT_WORK_TREE with an explicit "git --bare". Catch that mistake. It might make sense to move this check to "git.c" side as well, but I tried to shoot for the minimum change for now. * Some scripts, especially from the olden days, rely on traditional GIT_DIR behaviour in "git init". Namely, these are some notable patterns: (create a bare repository) - mkdir some.git && cd some.git && GIT_DIR=. git init - mkdir some.git && cd some.git && git --bare init (create a non-bare repository) - mkdir .git && GIT_DIR=.git git init - mkdir .git && GIT_DIR=`pwd`/.git git init This comes with a new test script and also passes the existing test suite, but there may be cases that are still broken with the current tip of master and this patch does not yet fix. I'd appreciate help in straightening this mess out. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

The problem is that the pager hides the return code -- which is the only output we're interested in in this case.

2007-08-01Clean up work-tree handlingJohannes Schindelin
The old version of work-tree support was an unholy mess, barely readable, and not to the point. For example, why do you have to provide a worktree, when it is not used? As in "git status". Now it works. Another riddle was: if you can have work trees inside the git dir, why are some programs complaining that they need a work tree? IOW it is allowed to call $ git --git-dir=../ --work-tree=. bla when you really want to. In this case, you are both in the git directory and in the working tree. So, programs have to actually test for the right thing, namely if they are inside a working tree, and not if they are inside a git directory. Also, GIT_DIR=../.git should behave the same as if no GIT_DIR was specified, unless there is a repository in the current working directory. It does now. The logic to determine if a repository is bare, or has a work tree (tertium non datur), is this: --work-tree=bla overrides GIT_WORK_TREE, which overrides core.bare = true, which overrides core.worktree, which overrides GIT_DIR/.. when GIT_DIR ends in /.git, which overrides the directory in which .git/ was found. In related news, a long standing bug was fixed: when in .git/bla/x.git/, which is a bare repository, git formerly assumed ../.. to be the appropriate git dir. This problem was reported by Shawn Pearce to have caused much pain, where a colleague mistakenly ran "git init" in "/" a long time ago, and bare repositories just would not work.

2007-07-27Make verify-tag a builtin.Carlos Rica
This replaces "git-verify-tag.sh" with "builtin-verify-tag.c". Testing relies on the "git tag -v" tests calling this command. A temporary file is needed when calling to gpg, because git is already creating detached signatures (gpg option -b) to sign tags (instead of leaving gpg to add the signature to the file by itself), and those signatures need to be supplied in a separate file to be verified by gpg. The program uses git_mkstemp to create that temporary file needed by gpg, instead of the previously used "$GIT_DIR/.tmp-vtag", in order to allow the command to be used in read-only repositories, and also prevent other instances of git to read or remove the same file. Signal SIGPIPE is ignored because the program sometimes was terminated because that signal when writing the input for gpg. The command now can receive many tag names to be verified. Documentation is also updated here to reflect this new behaviour. Signed-off-by: Carlos Rica <jasampler@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2007-07-20Make git tag a builtin.Carlos Rica
This replaces the script "git-tag.sh" with "builtin-tag.c". The existing test suite for "git tag" guarantees the compatibility with the features provided by the script version. There are some minor changes in the behaviour of "git tag" here: "git tag -v" now can get more than one tag to verify, like "git tag -d" does, "git tag" with no arguments prints all tags, more like "git branch" does, and "git tag -n" also prints all tags with annotations (without needing -l). Tests and documentation were also updated to reflect these changes. The program is currently calling the script "git verify-tag" for verify. This can be changed porting it to C and calling its functions directly from builtin-tag.c. Signed-off-by: Carlos Rica <jasampler@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2007-06-30git: Try a bit harder not to lose errno in stdioLinus Torvalds
This switches the checks around upon the exit codepath of the git wrapper, so that we may recover at least non-transient errors. It's still not perfect. As I've been harping on, stdio simply isn't very good for error reporting. For example, if an IO error happened, you'd want to see EIO, wouldn't you? And yes, that's what the kernel would return. However, with buffered stdio (and flushing outside of our control), what would likely happen is that some intermediate error return _does_ return EIO, but then the kernel might decide to re-mount the filesystem read-only due to the error, and the actual *report* for us might be "write failure on standard output: read-only filesystem" which lost the EIO.

2007-06-13make git barf when an alias changes environment variablesMatthias Lederhofer
Aliases changing environment variables (GIT_DIR or GIT_WORK_TREE) can cause problems: git has to use GIT_DIR to read the aliases from the config. After running handle_options for the alias the options of the alias may have changed environment variables. Depending on the implementation of setenv the memory location obtained through getenv earlier may contain the old value or the new value (or even be used for something else?). To avoid these problems git errors out if an alias uses any option which changes environment variables.

2007-06-06introduce GIT_WORK_TREE to specify the work treeMatthias Lederhofer
setup_gdg is used as abbreviation for setup_git_directory_gently. The work tree can be specified using the environment variable GIT_WORK_TREE and the config option core.worktree (the environment variable has precendence over the config option). Additionally there is a command line option --work-tree which sets the environment variable. setup_gdg does the following now: GIT_DIR unspecified repository in .git directory parent directory of the .git directory is used as work tree, GIT_WORK_TREE is ignored GIT_DIR unspecified repository in cwd GIT_DIR is set to cwd see the cases with GIT_DIR specified what happens next and also see the note below GIT_DIR specified GIT_WORK_TREE/core.worktree unspecified cwd is used as work tree GIT_DIR specified GIT_WORK_TREE/core.worktree specified the specified work tree is used Note on the case where GIT_DIR is unspecified and repository is in cwd: GIT_WORK_TREE is used but is_inside_git_dir is always true. I did it this way because setup_gdg might be called multiple times (e.g. when doing alias expansion) and in successive calls setup_gdg should do the same thing every time. Meaning of is_bare/is_inside_work_tree/is_inside_git_dir: (1) is_bare_repository A repository is bare if core.bare is true or core.bare is unspecified and the name suggests it is bare (directory not named .git). The bare option disables a few protective checks which are useful with a working tree. Currently this changes if a repository is bare: updates of HEAD are allowed git gc packs the refs the reflog is disabled by default (2) is_inside_work_tree True if the cwd is inside the associated working tree (if there is one), false otherwise. (3) is_inside_git_dir True if the cwd is inside the git directory, false otherwise. Before this patch is_inside_git_dir was always true for bare repositories. When setup_gdg finds a repository git_config(git_default_config) is always called. This ensure that is_bare_repository makes use of core.bare and does not guess even though core.bare is specified. inside_work_tree and inside_git_dir are set if setup_gdg finds a repository. The is_inside_work_tree and is_inside_git_dir functions will die if they are called before a successful call to setup_gdg.

2007-04-14Add basic infrastructure to assign attributes to pathsJunio C Hamano
This adds the basic infrastructure to assign attributes to paths, in a way similar to what the exclusion mechanism does based on $GIT_DIR/info/exclude and .gitignore files. An attribute is just a simple string that does not contain any whitespace. They can be specified in $GIT_DIR/info/attributes file, and .gitattributes file in each directory. Each line in these files defines a pattern matching rule. Similar to the exclusion mechanism, a later match overrides an earlier match in the same file, and entries from .gitattributes file in the same directory takes precedence over the ones from parent directories. Lines in $GIT_DIR/info/attributes file are used as the lowest precedence default rules. A line is either a comment (an empty line, or a line that begins with a '#'), or a rule, which is a whitespace separated list of tokens. The first token on the line is a shell glob pattern. The rest are names of attributes, each of which can optionally be prefixed with '!'. Such a line means "if a path matches this glob, this attribute is set (or unset -- if the attribute name is prefixed with '!'). For glob matching, the same "if the pattern does not have a slash in it, the basename of the path is matched with fnmatch(3) against the pattern, otherwise, the path is matched with the pattern with FNM_PATHNAME" rule as the exclusion mechanism is used. This does not define what an attribute means. Tying an attribute to various effects it has on git operation for paths that have it will be specified separately.
