2011-08-01connect: correctly number ipv6 network adapterLibravatar Erik Faye-Lund1-1/+1
In ba50532, the variable 'cnt' was added to both the IPv6 and the IPv4 version of git_tcp_connect_sock, intended to identify which network adapter the connection failed on. But in the IPv6 version, the variable was never increased, leaving it constantly at zero. This behaviour isn't very useful, so let's fix it by increasing the variable at every loop-iteration.

2011-07-31t7400: fix bogus test failure with symlinked trashLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+4
One of the tests in t7400 fails if the trash directory has a symlink anywhere in its path. E.g.: $ mkdir /tmp/git-test $ mkdir /tmp/git-test/real $ ln -s real /tmp/git-test/link $ ./t7400-submodule-basic --root=/tmp/git-test/real ... # passed all 44 test(s) $ ./t7400-submodule-basic --root=/tmp/git-test/link ... not ok - 41 use superproject as upstream when path is relative and no url is set there The failing test does: git submodule add ../repo relative && ... git submodule sync relative && test "$(git config submodule.relative.url)" = "$submodurl/repo" where $submodurl comes from the $TRASH_DIRECTORY the user gave us. However, git will resolve symlinks when converting the relative path into an absolute one, leading them to be textually different (even though they point to the same directory). Fix this by asking pwd to canonicalize the name of the trash directory for us.

2011-07-24tests: print failed test numbers at the end of the test runLibravatar Jens Lehmann1-1/+13
On modern multi-core processors "make test" is often run in multiple jobs. If one of them fails the test run does stop, but the concurrently running tests finish their run. It is rather easy to find out which test failed by doing a "ls -d t/trash*". But that only works when you don't use the "-i" option to "make test" because you want to get an overview of all failing tests. In that case all thrash directories are deleted end and the information which tests failed is lost. If one or more tests failed, print a list of them before the test summary: failed test(s): t1000 t6500 fixed 0 success 7638 failed 3 broken 49 total 7723 This makes it possible to just run the test suite with -i and collect all failed test scripts at the end for further examination.

2011-07-22doc/fast-import: clarify notemodify commandLibravatar Dmitry Ivankov1-3/+8
The "notemodify" fast-import command was introduced in commit a8dd2e7 (fast-import: Add support for importing commit notes, 2009-10-09) The commit log has slightly different description than the added documentation. The latter is somewhat confusing. "notemodify" is a subcommand of "commit" command used to add a note for some commit. Does this note annotate the commit produced by the "commit" command or a commit given by it's committish parameter? Which notes tree does it write notes to? The exact meaning could be deduced with old description and some notes machinery knowledge. But let's make it more obvious. This command is used in a context like "commit refs/notes/test" to add or rewrite an annotation for a committish parameter. So the advised way to add notes in a fast-import stream is: 1) import some commits (optional) 2) prepare a "commit" to the notes tree: 2.1) choose notes ref, committer, log message, etc. 2.2) create annotations with "notemodify", where each can refer to a commit being annotated via a branch name, import mark reference, sha1 and other expressions specified in the Documentation.

2011-06-29test: skip clean-up when running under --immediate modeLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+10
Some tests try to be too careful about cleaning themselves up and do test_expect_success description ' set-up some test refs and/or configuration && test_when_finished "revert the above changes" && the real test ' Which is nice to make sure that a potential failure would not have unexpected interaction with the next test. This however interferes when "the real test" fails and we want to see what is going on, by running the test with --immediate mode and descending into its trash directory after the test stops. The precondition to run the real test and cause it to fail is all gone after the clean-up procedure defined by test_when_finished is done. Update test_run_ which is the workhorse of running a test script called from test_expect_success and test_expect_failure, so that we do not run clean-up script defined with test_when_finished when a test that is expected to succeed fails under the --immediate mode.

If a svn:mergeinfo range starts at a commit that was converted as a git root commit (e.g., r1 or a branch that was created out of thin air), then there is an error when git-svn tries to run git rev-list "$bottom_commit^..$top_commit" because $bottom_commit (the git commit corresponding to r1) has no parent.

2011-06-23glossary: update description of "tag"Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-8/+8
It is an unimportant implementation detail that ref namespaces are implemented as subdirectories of $GIT_DIR/refs. What is more important is that tags are in refs/tags hierarchy in the ref namespace.

2011-06-23git-remote.txt: avoid sounding as if loose refs are the only ones in the worldLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-9/+10
It was correct to say "The file $GIT_DIR/refs/heads/master stores the commit object name at the tip of the master branch" in the older days, but not anymore, as refs can be packed into $GIT_DIR/packed-refs file. Update the document to talk in terms of a more abstract concept "ref" and "symbolic ref" where we are not describing the underlying implementation detail. This on purpose leaves two instances of $GIT_DIR/ in the git-remote documentation; they do talk about $GIT_DIR/remotes/ and $GIT_DIR/branches/ file hierarchy that used to be the place to store configuration around remotes before the configuration mechanism took them over.

Earlier 7974843 (compat/cygwin.c: make runtime detection of lstat/stat lessor impact, 2008-10-23) fixed the low-level "do we use cygwin specific hacks for stat/lstat?" logic not to call into git_default_config() from random codepaths that are typically very late in the program, to prevent the call from potentially overwriting other variables that are initialized from the configuration. However, it forgot that on Cygwin, trust-executable-bit should default to true. Noticed by J6t, confirmed by Ramsay Jones, and the brown paper bag is on Gitster's head.

Because of that fetch did not recursively fetch submodules living in subdirectories even when it should have.
