2020-10-27checkout-index: propagate errors to exit codeJeff King
If we encounter an error while checking out an explicit path, we print a message to stderr but do not actually exit with a non-zero code. While this is a plumbing command and the behavior goes all the way back to 33db5f4d90 (Add a "checkout-cache" command which does what the name suggests., 2005-04-09), this is almost certainly an oversight: - we _do_ return an exit code from checkout_file(); the caller just never reads it - errors while checking out all paths (with "-a") do result in a non-zero exit code. - it would be quite unusual not to use the exit code for an error, as otherwise the caller has no idea the command failed except by scraping stderr To keep our tests simple and portable, we can use the most obvious error: asking to checkout a path which is not in the index at all.

2020-10-27checkout-index: drop error message from empty --stage=allJeff King
If checkout-index is given --stage=all for a specific path, it will try to write stages 1-3 (if present) for that path to temporary files. However, if the file is present only at stage 0, it writes nothing but gives a confusing message: $ git checkout-index --stage=all -- Makefile git checkout-index: Makefile does not exist at stage 4 This is nonsense. There is no stage 4 (it's just an internal enum value we use for "all"), and the documentation clearly states: Paths which only have a stage 0 entry will always be omitted from the output. Here it's talking about the list of tempfiles written to stdout, but it seems clear that this case was not meant to be an error. We even have a test which covers it, but it only checks that the command reports an exit code of 0, not its stderr. And it reports 0 only because of another bug which fails to propagate errors (which will be fixed in a subsequent patch). So let's make the test more thorough. We'll also cover the case that we found _no_ entry, not even a stage zero, which should still be an error. However, because of the other bug, we'll have to mark this as expecting failure for the moment. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2014-12-29checkout-index: fix --temp relative path manglingEric Sunshine
checkout-index --temp only properly prints relative paths which are descendants of the current directory. Paths in ancestor or sibling directories (or their children) are often printed in mangled form. For example: mkdir a bbb && >file && >bbb/file && git update-index --add file bbb/file && cd a && git checkout-index --temp ../file ../bbb/file prints: .merge_file_ooblek le .merge_file_igloo0 b/file rather than the correct: .merge_file_ooblek ../file .merge_file_igloo0 ../bbb/file Internally, given the above example, checkout-index prefixes each input argument with the name of the current directory ("a/", in this case), and then assumes that it can simply skip forward by strlen("a/") bytes to recover the original name. This works for files in the current directory or its descendants, but fails for files in ancestors or siblings (or their children) due to path normalization. For instance, given "../file", "a/" is prepended, giving "a/../file". Path normalization folds out "a/../", resulting in "file". Attempting to recover the original name by skipping strlen("a/") bytes gives the incorrect "le" rather than the desired "../file". Fix this by taking advantage of write_name_quoted_relative() to recover the original name properly, rather than assuming that it can be recovered by skipping strlen(prefix) bytes. As a bonus, this also fixes a bug in which checkout-index --temp accessed and printed memory beyond the end-of-string. For instance, within a subdirectory named "subdirectory", and given argument "../file", prefixing would give "subdirectory/../file", which would become "file" after normalization. checkout-index would then attempt to recover the original name by skipping strlen("subdirectory/") bytes of "file", which placed it well beyond end-of-string. Despite this error, it often appeared to give the correct result, but only due to an accident of implementation which left an apparently correct copy of the path in memory following the normalized value. In particular, handed "subdirectory/../file", in-place processing by normalize_path_copy_len() resulted in "file\0rectory/../file". When checkout-index skipped strlen("subdirectory/") bytes, it ended up back at "../file" and thus appeared to give the correct answer, despite being past end-of-string.

2014-12-29t2004: demonstrate broken relative path printingEric Sunshine
checkout-index --temp only properly prints relative paths which are descendants of the current directory. Paths in ancestor or sibling directories (or their children) are often printed in mangled form. For example: mkdir a bbb && >file && >bbb/file && git update-index --add file bbb/file && cd a && git checkout-index --temp ../file ../bbb/file prints: .merge_file_ooblek le .merge_file_igloo0 b/file rather than the correct: .merge_file_ooblek ../file .merge_file_igloo0 ../bbb/file Unfortunately, testing is complicated slightly by relative paths sometimes _appearing_ to be printed correctly, but this is an accident of implementation in which a "correct" copy of the string exists in memory beyond the end of the real string, and that "correct" copy gets printed. This test takes care to avoid the accidentally "correct" behavior by testing with a filename longer than the directory name in which checkout-index is invoked.

2013-06-07tests: use test_ln_s_add to remove SYMLINKS prerequisite (trivial cases)Johannes Sixt
There are many instances where the treatment of symbolic links in the object model and the algorithms are tested, but where it is not necessary to actually have a symbolic link in the worktree. Make adjustments to the tests and remove the SYMLINKS prerequisite when appropriate in trivial cases, where "trivial" means: - merely a replacement of 'ln -s a b && git add b' by test_ln_s_add is needed; - a test for symbolic link on the file system can be split off (and remains protected by SYMLINKS); - existing code is equivalent to test_ln_s_add.

2009-03-22Use prerequisite tags to skip tests that depend on symbolic linksJohannes Sixt
Many tests depend on that symbolic links work. This introduces a check that sets the prerequisite tag SYMLINKS if the file system supports symbolic links. Since so many tests have to check for this prerequisite, we do the check in test-lib.sh, so that we don't need to repeat the test in many scripts. To check for 'ln -s' failures, you can use a FAT partition on Linux: $ mkdosfs -C git-on-fat 1000000 $ sudo mount -o loop,uid=j6t,gid=users,shortname=winnt git-on-fat /mnt Clone git to /mnt and $ GIT_SKIP_TESTS='t0001.1[34] t0010 t1301 t403[34] t4129.[47] t5701.7 t7701.3 t9100 t9101.26 t9119 t9124.[67] t9200.10 t9600.6' \ make test (These additionally skipped tests depend on POSIX permissions that FAT on Linux does not provide.)

2006-03-05Add --temp and --stage=all options to checkout-index.Shawn Pearce
Sometimes it is convient for a Porcelain to be able to checkout all unmerged files in all stages so that an external merge tool can be executed by the Porcelain or the end-user. Using git-unpack-file on each stage individually incurs a rather high penalty due to the need to fork for each file version obtained. git-checkout-index -a --stage=all will now do the same thing, but faster.
