2010-10-06Add case insensitivity support for directories when using git statusJoshua Jensen
When using a case preserving but case insensitive file system, directory case can differ but still refer to the same physical directory. git status reports the directory with the alternate case as an Untracked file. (That is, when mydir/filea.txt is added to the repository and then the directory on disk is renamed from mydir/ to MyDir/, git status shows MyDir/ as being untracked.) Support has been added in name-hash.c for hashing directories with a terminating slash into the name hash. When index_name_exists() is called with a directory (a name with a terminating slash), the name is not found via the normal cache_name_compare() call, but it is found in the slow_same_name() function. Additionally, in dir.c, directory_exists_in_index_icase() allows newly added directories deeper in the directory chain to be identified. Ultimately, it would be better if the file list was read in case insensitive alphabetical order from disk, but this change seems to suffice for now. The end result is the directory is looked up in a case insensitive manner and does not show in the Untracked files list.

2008-04-09Make hash_name_lookup able to do case-independent lookupsLinus Torvalds
Right now nobody uses it, but "index_name_exists()" gets a flag so you can enable it on a case-by-case basis. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2008-04-09Make "index_name_exists()" return the cache_entry it foundLinus Torvalds
This allows verify_absent() in unpack_trees() to use the hash chains rather than looking it up using the binary search. Perhaps more importantly, it's also going to be useful for the next phase, where we actually start looking at the cache entry when we do case-insensitive lookups and checking the result.

2008-04-09Move name hashing functions into a file of its ownLinus Torvalds
It's really totally separate functionality, and if we want to start doing case-insensitive hash lookups, I'd rather do it when it's separated out. It also renames "remove_index_entry()" to "remove_name_hash()", because that really describes the thing better. It doesn't actually remove the index entry, that's done by "remove_index_entry_at()", which is something very different, despite the similarity in names.
