2008-02-25Add support for url aliases in config filesDaniel Barkalow
This allows users with different preferences for access methods to the same remote repositories to rewrite each other's URLs by pattern matching across a large set of similiarly set up repositories to each get the desired access. For example, if you don't have a kernel.org account, you might want settings like: [url "git://git.kernel.org/pub/"] insteadOf = master.kernel.org:/pub Then, if you give git a URL like: master.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-2.6.git it will act like you gave it: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-2.6.git and you can cut-and-paste pull requests in email without fixing them by hand, for example.

2008-02-16commit: discard index after setting up partial commitJeff King
There may still be some entries from the original index that should be discarded before we show the status. In particular, if a file was added in the index but not included in the partial commit, it would still show up in the status listing as staged for commit. Ultimately the correct fix is to keep the two states in separate index_state variables. Then we can avoid having to reload the cache from the temporary file altogether, and just point wt_status_print at the correct index.

2008-02-13Protect get_author_ident_from_commit() from filenames in work treeJunio C Hamano
We used to use "cat-file commit $commit" to extract the original author information from existing commit, but an earlier commit 5ac2715 (Consistent message encoding while reusing log from an existing commit) changed it to use "git show -s $commit". If you have a file in your work tree that can be interpreted as a valid object name (e.g. "HEAD"), this conversion will not work. Disambiguate by marking the end of revision parameter on the comand line with an explicit "--" to fix this. This breakage is most visible with rebase when a file called "HEAD" exists in the worktree.

This establishes what the "bad" whitespaces are for this project. The rules are: - Unless otherwise specified, indent with SP that could be replaced with HT are not "bad". But SP before HT in the indent is "bad", and trailing whitespaces are "bad". - For C source files, initial indent by SP that can be replaced with HT is also "bad". - Test scripts in t/ and test vectors in its subdirectories can contain anything, so we make it unrestricted for now.

2008-02-11Make git prune remove temporary packs that look like write failuresDavid Steven Tweed
Write errors when repacking (eg, due to out-of-space conditions) can leave temporary packs (and possibly other files beginning with "tmp_") lying around which no existing codepath removes and which aren't obvious to the casual user. These can also be multi-megabyte files wasting noticeable space. Unfortunately there's no way to definitely tell in builtin-prune that a tmp_ file is not being used by a concurrent process, such as a fetch. However, it is documented that pruning should only be done on a quiet repository and --expire is honoured (using code from Johannes Schindelin, along with a test case he wrote) so that its safety is the same as that of loose object pruning. Since they might be signs of a problem (unlike orphaned loose objects) the names of any removed files are printed.

2008-02-06fix config reading in testsJeff King
Previously, we set the GIT_CONFIG environment variable in our tests so that only that file was read. However, setting it to a static value is not correct, since we are not necessarily always in the same directory; instead, we want the usual git config file lookup to happen. To do this, we stop setting GIT_CONFIG, which means that we must now suppress the reading of the system-wide and user configs. This exposes an incorrect test in t1500, which is also fixed (the incorrect test worked because we were failing to read the core.bare value from the config file, since the GIT_CONFIG variable was pointing us to the wrong file).

2008-02-06safecrlf: Add mechanism to warn about irreversible crlf conversionsSteffen Prohaska
CRLF conversion bears a slight chance of corrupting data. autocrlf=true will convert CRLF to LF during commit and LF to CRLF during checkout. A file that contains a mixture of LF and CRLF before the commit cannot be recreated by git. For text files this is the right thing to do: it corrects line endings such that we have only LF line endings in the repository. But for binary files that are accidentally classified as text the conversion can corrupt data. If you recognize such corruption early you can easily fix it by setting the conversion type explicitly in .gitattributes. Right after committing you still have the original file in your work tree and this file is not yet corrupted. You can explicitly tell git that this file is binary and git will handle the file appropriately. Unfortunately, the desired effect of cleaning up text files with mixed line endings and the undesired effect of corrupting binary files cannot be distinguished. In both cases CRLFs are removed in an irreversible way. For text files this is the right thing to do because CRLFs are line endings, while for binary files converting CRLFs corrupts data. This patch adds a mechanism that can either warn the user about an irreversible conversion or can even refuse to convert. The mechanism is controlled by the variable core.safecrlf, with the following values: - false: disable safecrlf mechanism - warn: warn about irreversible conversions - true: refuse irreversible conversions The default is to warn. Users are only affected by this default if core.autocrlf is set. But the current default of git is to leave core.autocrlf unset, so users will not see warnings unless they deliberately chose to activate the autocrlf mechanism. The safecrlf mechanism's details depend on the git command. The general principles when safecrlf is active (not false) are: - we warn/error out if files in the work tree can modified in an irreversible way without giving the user a chance to backup the original file. - for read-only operations that do not modify files in the work tree we do not not print annoying warnings. There are exceptions. Even though... - "git add" itself does not touch the files in the work tree, the next checkout would, so the safety triggers; - "git apply" to update a text file with a patch does touch the files in the work tree, but the operation is about text files and CRLF conversion is about fixing the line ending inconsistencies, so the safety does not trigger; - "git diff" itself does not touch the files in the work tree, it is often run to inspect the changes you intend to next "git add". To catch potential problems early, safety triggers. The concept of a safety check was originally proposed in a similar way by Linus Torvalds. Thanks to Dimitry Potapov for insisting on getting the naked LF/autocrlf=true case right. Signed-off-by: Steffen Prohaska <prohaska@zib.de>
2008-02-06git-commit: add a prepare-commit-msg hookPaolo Bonzini
The prepare-commit-msg hook is run whenever a "fresh" commit message is prepared, just before it is shown in the editor (if it is). Its purpose is to modify the commit message in-place. It takes one to three parameters. The first is the name of the file that the commit log message. The second is the source of the commit message, and can be: "message" (if a -m or -F option was given); "template" (if a -t option was given or the configuration option commit.template is set); "merge" (if the commit is a merge or a .git/MERGE_MSG file exists); "squash" (if a .git/SQUASH_MSG file exists); or "commit", followed by a commit SHA1 as the third parameter (if a -c, -C or --amend option was given). If its exit status is non-zero, git-commit will abort. The hook is not suppressed by the --no-verify option, so it should not be used as a replacement for the pre-commit hook. The sample prepare-commit-msg comments out the `Conflicts:` part of a merge's commit message; other examples are commented out, including adding a Signed-off-by line at the bottom of the commit messsage, that the user can then edit or discard altogether.

2008-02-05gitignore(5): Allow "foo/" in ignore list to match directory "foo"Junio C Hamano
A pattern "foo/" in the exclude list did not match directory "foo", but a pattern "foo" did. This attempts to extend the exclude mechanism so that it would while not matching a regular file or a symbolic link "foo". In order to differentiate a directory and non directory, this passes down the type of path being checked to excluded() function. A downside is that the recursive directory walk may need to run lstat(2) more often on systems whose "struct dirent" do not give the type of the entry; earlier it did not have to do so for an excluded path, but we now need to figure out if a path is a directory before deciding to exclude it. This is especially bad because an idea similar to the earlier CE_UPTODATE optimization to reduce number of lstat(2) calls would by definition not apply to the codepaths involved, as (1) directories will not be registered in the index, and (2) excluded paths will not be in the index anyway.

2008-02-02Sane use of test_expect_failureJunio C Hamano
Originally, test_expect_failure was designed to be the opposite of test_expect_success, but this was a bad decision. Most tests run a series of commands that leads to the single command that needs to be tested, like this: test_expect_{success,failure} 'test title' ' setup1 && setup2 && setup3 && what is to be tested ' And expecting a failure exit from the whole sequence misses the point of writing tests. Your setup$N that are supposed to succeed may have failed without even reaching what you are trying to test. The only valid use of test_expect_failure is to check a trivial single command that is expected to fail, which is a minority in tests of Porcelain-ish commands. This large-ish patch rewrites all uses of test_expect_failure to use test_expect_success and rewrites the condition of what is tested, like this: test_expect_success 'test title' ' setup1 && setup2 && setup3 && ! this command should fail ' test_expect_failure is redefined to serve as a reminder that that test *should* succeed but due to a known breakage in git it currently does not pass. So if git-foo command should create a file 'bar' but you discovered a bug that it doesn't, you can write a test like this: test_expect_failure 'git-foo should create bar' ' rm -f bar && git foo && test -f bar ' This construct acts similar to test_expect_success, but instead of reporting "ok/FAIL" like test_expect_success does, the outcome is reported as "FIXED/still broken".

2008-01-21index: be careful when handling long namesJunio C Hamano
We currently use lower 12-bit (masked with CE_NAMEMASK) in the ce_flags field to store the length of the name in cache_entry, without checking the length parameter given to create_ce_flags(). This can make us store incorrect length. Currently we are mostly protected by the fact that many codepaths first copy the path in a variable of size PATH_MAX, which typically is 4096 that happens to match the limit, but that feels like a bug waiting to happen. Besides, that would not allow us to shorten the width of CE_NAMEMASK to use the bits for new flags. This redefines the meaning of the name length stored in the cache_entry. A name that does not fit is represented by storing CE_NAMEMASK in the field, and the actual length needs to be computed by actually counting the bytes in the name[] field. This way, only the unusually long paths need to suffer. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
