In this case, be very careful and make sure you have the old tags backed up in case the conversion has run afoul. + -Note that there is currently no support for proper rewriting of -tag objects; in layman terms, if the tag has a message or signature -attached, the rewritten tag won't have it. Sorry. (It is by -definition impossible to preserve signatures at any rate.) +Nearly proper rewriting of tag objects is supported. If the tag has +a message attached, a new tag object will be created with the same message, +author, and timestamp. If the tag has a signature attached, the +signature will be stripped. It is by definition impossible to preserve +signatures. The reason this is "nearly" proper, is because ideally if +the tag did not change (points to the same object, has the same name, etc.) +it should retain any signature. That is not the case, signatures will always +be removed, buyer beware. There is also no support for changing the +author or timestamp (or the tag message for that matter). Tags which point +to other tags will be rewritten to point to the underlying commit. --subdirectory-filter <directory>:: Only look at the history which touches the given subdirectory. diff --git a/git-filter-branch.sh b/git-filter-branch.sh index 22b6ed4a78..ee906606c4 100755 --- a/git-filter-branch.sh +++ b/git-filter-branch.sh @@ -406,8 +406,22 @@ if [ "$filter_tag_name" ]; then echo "$ref -> $new_ref ($sha1 -> $new_sha1)" if [ "$type" = "tag" ]; then - # Warn that we are not rewriting the tag object itself. - warn "unreferencing tag object $sha1t" + new_sha1=$(git cat-file tag "$ref" | + sed -n \ + -e "1,/^$/{ + s/^object .*/object $new_sha1/ + s/^type .*/type commit/ + s/^tag .*/tag $new_ref/ + }" \ + -e '/^-----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE-----/q' \ + -e 'p' | + git mktag) || + die "Could not create new tag object for $ref" + if git cat-file tag "$ref" | \ + grep '^-----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE-----' >/dev/null 2>&1 + then + warn "gpg signature stripped from tag object $sha1t" + fi fi git update-ref "refs/tags/$new_ref" "$new_sha1" || diff --git a/t/t7003-filter-branch.sh b/t/t7003-filter-branch.sh index 6827249da5..1daaf544d9 100755 --- a/t/t7003-filter-branch.sh +++ b/t/t7003-filter-branch.sh @@ -203,4 +203,36 @@ test_expect_success 'Subdirectory filter with disappearing trees' ' test $(git rev-list master | wc -l) = 3 ' +test_expect_success 'Tag name filtering retains tag message' ' + git tag -m atag T && + git cat-file tag T > expect && + git filter-branch -f --tag-name-filter cat && + git cat-file tag T > actual && + git diff expect actual +' + +faux_gpg_tag='object XXXXXX +type commit +tag S +tagger T A Gger <tagger@example.com> 1206026339 -0500 + +This is a faux gpg signed tag. +-----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- +Version: FauxGPG v0.0.0 (FAUX/Linux) + +gdsfoewhxu/6l06f1kxyxhKdZkrcbaiOMtkJUA9ITAc1mlamh0ooasxkH1XwMbYQ +acmwXaWET20H0GeAGP+7vow= +=agpO +-----END PGP SIGNATURE----- +' +test_expect_success 'Tag name filtering strips gpg signature' ' + sha1=$(git rev-parse HEAD) && + sha1t=$(echo "$faux_gpg_tag" | sed -e s/XXXXXX/$sha1/ | git mktag) && + git update-ref "refs/tags/S" "$sha1t" && + echo "$faux_gpg_tag" | sed -e s/XXXXXX/$sha1/ | head -n 6 > expect && + git filter-branch -f --tag-name-filter cat && + git cat-file tag S > actual && + git diff expect actual +' + test_done |
