2007-12-26Make "--pretty=format" parser a bit more careful.Libravatar René Scharfe1-1/+3
When a commit message that does not have a terminating LF is read in and the memory that was allocated to read it happens to have a LF immediately after that, the code was not careful and went past the terminating NUL. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2007-12-26Fix rewrite_diff() name quoting.Libravatar Junio C Hamano4-13/+27
This moves the logic to quote two paths (prefix + path) in C-style introduced in the previous commit from the dump_quoted_path() in combine-diff.c to quote.c, and uses it to fix rewrite_diff() that never C-quoted the pathnames correctly. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2007-12-26combine-diff: Fix path quotingLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-10/+31
Earlier when showing combined diff, the filenames on the ---/+++ header lines were quoted incorrectly. a/ (or b/) prefix was output literally and then the path was output, with c-quoting. This fixes the quoting logic, and while at it, adjusts the code to use the customizable prefix (a_prefix and b_prefix) introduced recently. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2007-12-26Fix "git log --diff-filter" bugLibravatar Arjen Laarhoven2-2/+78
In commit b7bb760d5ed4881422673d32f869d140221d3564 (Fix revision log diff setup, avoid unnecessary diff generation) an optimization was made to avoid unnecessary diff generation. This was partly fixed in 99516e35d096f41e7133cacde8fbed8ee9a3ecd0 (Fix embarrassing "git log --follow" bug). The '--diff-filter' option also needs the diff machinery in action.

2007-12-26Improve error messages when int/long cannot be parsed from configLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce2-10/+38
If a config file has become mildly corrupted due to a missing LF we may discover some other option joined up against the end of a numeric value. For example: [section] number = 1auto where the "auto" flag was meant to occur on the next line, below "number", but the missing LF has caused it to no longer be its own option. Instead the word "auto" is parsed as a 'unit factor' for the value of "number". Before this change we got the confusing error message: fatal: unknown unit: 'auto' which told us nothing about where the problem appeared. Now we get: fatal: bad config value for 'aninvalid.unit' which at least points the user in the right direction of where to search for the incorrectly formatted configuration file. Noticed by erikh on #git, which received the original error from a simple `git checkout -b` due to a midly corrupted config. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

2007-12-23cvsimport: die on cvsps errorsLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+1
We were not previously checking the exit status of cvsps at all. If it exited before producing any useful output, we ended up with an empty import, which caused a spew of confusing error messages from other parts of git: $ git-cvsimport foo Initialized empty Git repository in ... some error from cvsps fatal: refs/heads/origin: not a valid SHA1 fatal: master: not a valid SHA1 warning: You appear to be on a branch yet to be born. warning: Forcing checkout of HEAD. fatal: just how do you expect me to merge 0 trees? checkout failed: 256 Now we get: $ git-cvsimport foo Initialized empty Git repository in ... some error from cvsps git-cvsimport: fatal: cvsps reported error Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Acked-by: Martin Langhoff <martin@catalyst.net.nz> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

We wanted to have a list in which one (and the sole, as it happen to be) item in it is ".mailmap", but do not seem to be able to convince AsciiDoc to format it correctly for manpages.

2007-12-22Allow selection of different cleanup modes for commit messagesLibravatar Alex Riesen3-5/+114
Although we traditionally stripped away excess blank lines, trailing whitespaces and lines that begin with "#" from the commit log message, sometimes the message just has to be the way user wants it. For instance, a commit message template can contain lines that begin with "#", the message must be kept as close to its original source as possible if you are converting from a foreign SCM, or maybe the message has a shell script including its comments for future reference. The cleanup modes are default, verbatim, whitespace and strip. The default mode depends on if the message is being edited and will either strip whitespace and comments (if editor active) or just strip the whitespace (for where the message is given explicitely).

2007-12-22builtin-commit: avoid double-negation in the code.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-6/+6
The flag no_edit meant "we have got final message from the user and will not editing it any further", but there were quite a few places that needed to check !no_edit. Rename the variable to use_editor and reverse the logic everywhere. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2007-12-22builtin-commit: fix amending of the initial commitLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-4/+4
When amending initial commit without editor, the command incorrectly barfed because the check to see if there is anything to commit referenced the non-existent HEAD^1. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2007-12-22Emit helpful status for accidental "git stash" saveLibravatar Wincent Colaiuta1-2/+4
If the user types "git stash" mistakenly thinking that this will list their stashes he/she may be surprised to see that it actually saved a new stash and reset their working tree and index. In the worst case they might not know how to recover the state. So help them by telling them exactly what was saved and also how to restore it immediately.

2007-12-22Fix $EDITOR regression introduced by rewrite in C.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+13
When git-tag and git-commit launches the editor, they used to honor EDITOR="editor -options args..." but recent rewrite in C insisted on $EDITOR to be the path to the editor executable. This restores the older behaviour. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2007-12-22Make git send-email accept $EDITOR with argumentsLibravatar Gustaf Hendeby1-1/+1
Currently git send-email does not accept $EDITOR with arguments, eg, emacs -nw, when starting an editor to produce a cover letter.

2007-12-22git-tag: fix -l switch handling regression.Libravatar Pierre Habouzit2-15/+5
The command itself takes an optional <pattern> argument that limits the shown tags to the ones that match when in listing mode that is triggered with '-l' option. The <pattern> is not an optional option-argument to '-l'. With this fix, "git tag -l -n 4 v0.99" works as expected. It also removes a few bogus tests in t7004.

2007-12-20Re(-re)*fix trim_common_tail()Libravatar Linus Torvalds1-4/+7
The tar-ball and the git archive itself is fine, but yes, the diff from 2.6.23 to 2.6.24-rc6 is bad. It's the "trim_common_tail()" optimization that has caused way too much pain. Very interesting breakage. The patch was actually "correct" in a (rather limited) technical sense, but the context at the end was missing because while the trim_common_tail() code made sure to keep enough common context to allow a valid diff to be generated, the diff machinery itself could decide that it could generate the diff differently than the "obvious" solution. Thee sad fact is that the git optimization (which is very important for "git blame", which needs no context), is only really valid for that one case where we really don't need any context. [jc: since this is shared with "git diff -U0" codepath, context recovery to the end of line needs to be done even for zero context case.] Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2007-12-20everyday: replace 'prune' and 'repack' with 'gc'Libravatar Miklos Vajna1-13/+6
In everyday tasks, "repack -a -d -f" won't be used, so there is not much point mentioning "repack". By showing the --prune option to "gc", we can do without mentioning "git prune", too. Signed-off-by: Miklos Vajna <vmiklos@frugalware.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2007-12-20shell-scripts usage(): consistently exit with non-zeroLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+2
Earlier conversion of shell scripts to parse-options made usage() to run "git cmd -h" which in turn emit LONG_USAGE and exit with 0 status. This is inconsistent with the scripts that do not use parse-options, whose usage() died with the message, exiting with 1. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2007-12-20Reallow git-rebase --interactive --continue if commit is unnecessaryLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-1/+3
During git-rebase --interactive's --continue implementation we used to silently restart the rebase if the user had made the commit for us. This is common if the user stops to edit a commit and does so by amending it. My recent change to watch git-commit's exit status broke this behavior. Thanks to Bernt Hansen for catching it in 1.5.4-rc1. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2007-12-20fix git commit --amend -m "new message"Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+5
The prepare_log_message() function serves two purposes: - Prepares the commit log message template, to be given to the end user; - Return true if there is something committable; 7168624c3530d8c7ee32f930f8fb2ba302b9801f (Do not generate full commit log message if it is not going to be used) cheated to omit the former when we know the log message template is not going to be used. However, its replacement logic to see if there is something committable was botched. When amending, it should compare the index with the parent of the HEAD, not the current HEAD. Otherwise you cannot run --amend to fix only the message without changing the tree. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2007-12-20t4024: fix test script to use simpler sed patternLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-35/+123

2007-12-20Teach diff machinery to display other prefixes than "a/" and "b/"Libravatar Johannes Schindelin3-8/+27
With the new options "--src-prefix=<prefix>", "--dst-prefix=<prefix>" and "--no-prefix", you can now control the path prefixes of the diff machinery. These used to by hardwired to "a/" for the source prefix and "b/" for the destination prefix. Initial patch by Pascal Obry. Sane option names suggested by Linus.

2007-12-19Catch and handle git-commit failures in git-rebase --interactiveLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-8/+9

2007-12-19Avoid update hook during git-rebase --interactiveLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-2/+2
If we are rebasing changes that contain potential whitespace errors that our .git/hooks/pre-commit hook looks for and fails on then git-commit will fail to commit that change. This causes git-rebase--interactive to squash commits together, even though it was not requested to do so by the todo file. Passing --no-verify to git-commit makes git-rebase -i behave more like git-rebase normally would in such conditions, providing more consistent behavior between the different rebase implementations.

git-instaweb relied on a pipe in a sed script, but this is not supported by MacOS X sed when using BREs. git-instaweb relies on a working perl in any case, and perl re are more consistent between platforms, so replace sed invocation with an equivalent perl invocation.
