2013-03-17t1507: Test that branchname@{upstream} is interpreted as branchLibravatar Kacper Kornet1-0/+4
Syntax branchname@{upstream} should interpret its argument as a name of a branch. Add the test to check that it doesn't try to interpret it as a refname if the branch in question does not exist. Signed-off-by: Kacper Kornet <draenog@pld-linux.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2013-03-17rev-parse: clarify documentation of $name@{upstream} syntaxLibravatar Kacper Kornet1-4/+4
"git rev-parse" interprets string in string@{upstream} as a name of a branch not a ref. For example, refs/heads/master@{upstream} looks for an upstream branch that is merged by git-pull to ref refs/heads/refs/heads/master not to refs/heads/master. However the documentation could mislead a user to believe that the string is interpreted as ref. Signed-off-by: Kacper Kornet <draenog@pld-linux.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2013-03-17sha1_name: pass object name length to diagnose_invalid_sha1_path()Libravatar René Scharfe1-18/+14
The only caller of diagnose_invalid_sha1_path() extracts a substring from an object name by creating a NUL-terminated copy of the interesting part. Add a length parameter to the function and thus avoid the need for an allocation, thereby simplifying the code.

2013-03-01Make !pattern in .gitattributes non-fatalLibravatar Thomas Rast2-4/+7
Before 82dce99 (attr: more matching optimizations from .gitignore, 2012-10-15), .gitattributes did not have any special treatment of a leading '!'. The docs, however, always said The rules how the pattern matches paths are the same as in `.gitignore` files; see linkgit:gitignore[5]. By those rules, leading '!' means pattern negation. So 82dce99 correctly determined that this kind of line makes no sense and should be disallowed. However, users who actually had a rule for files starting with a '!' are in a bad position: before 82dce99 '!' matched that literal character, so it is conceivable that users have .gitattributes with such lines in them. After 82dce99 the unescaped version was disallowed in such a way that git outright refuses to run(!) most commands in the presence of such a .gitattributes. It therefore becomes very hard to fix, let alone work with, such repositories. Let's at least allow the users to fix their repos: change the fatal error into a warning.

2013-02-22Provide a mechanism to turn off symlink resolution in ceiling pathsLibravatar Michael Haggerty3-16/+52
Commit 1b77d83cab 'setup_git_directory_gently_1(): resolve symlinks in ceiling paths' changed the setup code to resolve symlinks in the entries in GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES. Because those entries are compared textually to the symlink-resolved current directory, an entry in GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES that contained a symlink would have no effect. It was known that this could cause performance problems if the symlink resolution *itself* touched slow filesystems, but it was thought that such use cases would be unlikely. The intention of the earlier change was to deal with a case when the user has this: GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES=/home/gitster but in reality, /home/gitster is a symbolic link to somewhere else, e.g. /net/machine/home4/gitster. A textual comparison between the specified value /home/gitster and the location getcwd(3) returns would not help us, but readlink("/home/gitster") would still be fast. After this change was released, Anders Kaseorg <andersk@mit.edu> reported: > [...] my computer has been acting so slow when I’m not connected to > the network. I put various network filesystem paths in > $GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES, such as > /afs/athena.mit.edu/user/a/n/andersk (to avoid hitting its parents > /afs/athena.mit.edu, /afs/athena.mit.edu/user/a, and > /afs/athena.mit.edu/user/a/n which all live in different AFS > volumes). Now when I’m not connected to the network, every > invocation of Git, including the __git_ps1 in my shell prompt, waits > for AFS to timeout. To allow users to work around this problem, give them a mechanism to turn off symlink resolution in GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES entries. All the entries that follow an empty entry will not be checked for symbolic links and used literally in comparison. E.g. with these: GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES=:/foo/bar:/xyzzy or GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES=/foo/bar::/xyzzy we will not readlink("/xyzzy") because it comes after an empty entry. With the former (but not with the latter), "/foo/bar" comes after an empty entry, and we will not readlink it, either.

2013-02-20Makefile: avoid infinite loop on configure.ac changeLibravatar Jeff King1-6/+8
If you are using autoconf and change the configure.ac, the Makefile will notice that config.status is older than configure.ac, and will attempt to rebuild and re-run the configure script to pick up your changes. The first step in doing so is to run "make configure". Unfortunately, this tries to include config.mak.autogen, which depends on config.status, which depends on configure.ac; so we must rebuild config.status. Which leads to us running "make configure", and so on. It's easy to demonstrate with: make configure ./configure touch configure.ac make We can break this cycle by not re-invoking make to build "configure", and instead just putting its rules inline into our config.status rebuild procedure. We can avoid a copy by factoring the rules into a make variable. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
