2008-11-05do not force write of packed refsLibravatar Clemens Buchacher2-3/+11
We force writing a ref if it does not exist. Originally, we only had to look for the ref file to check if it existed. Now we have to look for a packed ref as well. Luckily, resolve_ref already does all the work for us. Signed-off-by: Clemens Buchacher <drizzd@aon.at> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2008-11-02format-patch documentation: mention the special case of showing a single commitLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+2
Even long timers seem to have missed that "format-patch -1 $commit" is a much simpler and more obvious way to say "format-patch $commit^..$commit" from the current documentation (and an example "format-patch -3 $commit" to get three patches). Add an explicit instruction in a much earlier part of the documentation to make it easier to find. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2008-11-01fix overlapping memcpy in normalize_absolute_pathLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
The comments for normalize_absolute_path explicitly claim that the source and destination buffers may be the same (though they may not otherwise overlap). Thus the call to memcpy may involve copying overlapping data, and memmove should be used instead. This fixes a valgrind error in t1504.

2008-11-01pack-objects: avoid reading uninitalized dataLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+2
In the main loop of find_deltas, we do: struct object_entry *entry = *list++; ... if (!*list_size) ... break Because we look at and increment *list _before_ the check of list_size, in the very last iteration of the loop we will look at uninitialized data, and increment the pointer beyond one past the end of the allocated space. Since we don't actually do anything with the data until after the check, this is not a problem in practice. But since it technically violates the C standard, and because it provokes a spurious valgrind warning, let's just move the initialization of entry to a safe place. This fixes valgrind errors in t5300, t5301, t5302, t303, and t9400. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2008-11-01correct cache_entry allocationLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
Most cache_entry structs are allocated by using the cache_entry_size macro, which rounds the size of the struct up to the nearest multiple of 8 bytes (presumably to avoid memory fragmentation). There is one exception: the special "conflict entry" is allocated with an empty name, and so is explicitly given just one extra byte to hold the NUL. However, later code doesn't realize that this particular struct has been allocated differently, and happily tries reading and copying it based on the ce_size macro, which assumes the 8-byte alignment. This can lead to reading uninitalized data, though since that data is simply padding, there shouldn't be any problem as a result. Still, it makes sense to hold the padding assumption so as not to surprise later maintainers. This fixes valgrind errors in t1005, t3030, t4002, and t4114.

2008-10-31Add --verbose|-v to test-chmtimeLibravatar Alex Riesen1-21/+70
This allows us replace perl when getting the mtime of a file because of time zone conversions, though at the moment only one platform which does this has been identified: Cygwin when used with ActiveState Perl (as usual). The output format is: <mtime1> TAB <filename1> <LF> <mtime2> TAB <filename2> <LF> ... which, if only mtime is needed can be parsed with cut(1): test-chmtime -v +0 filename1 | cut -f 1 Also, the change adds a description of programs features, with examples.

2008-10-19Fix testcase failure when extended attributes are in useLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-4/+6
06cbe855 (Make core.sharedRepository more generic, 2008-04-16) made several testcases in t1301-shared-repo.sh which fail if on a system which creates files with extended attributes (e.g. SELinux), since ls appends a '+' sign to the permission set in such cases. In fact, POSIX.1 allows ls to add a single printable character after the usual 3x3 permission bits to show that an optional alternate/additional access method is associated with the path. This fixes the testcase to strip any such sign prior to verifying the permission set. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com> Tested-by: Deskin Miller <deskinm@umich.edu>

read_packed_sha1 expectes its caller to free the buffer it returns, which force_object_loose didn't do.

2008-10-17refactor handling of "other" files in ls-files and statusLibravatar Jeff King5-44/+40
When the "git status" display code was originally converted to C, we copied the code from ls-files to discover whether a pathname returned by read_directory was an "other", or untracked, file. Much later, 5698454e updated the code in ls-files to handle some new cases caused by gitlinks. This left the code in wt-status.c broken: it would display submodule directories as untracked directories. Nobody noticed until now, however, because unless status.showUntrackedFiles was set to "all", submodule directories were not actually reported by read_directory. So the bug was only triggered in the presence of a submodule _and_ this config option. This patch pulls the ls-files code into a new function, cache_name_is_other, and uses it in both places. This should leave the ls-files functionality the same and fix the bug in status. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2008-10-17pull: allow "git pull origin $something:$current_branch" into an unborn branchLibravatar Junio C Hamano2-2/+14
Some misguided documents floating on the Net suggest this sequence: mkdir newdir && cd newdir git init git remote add origin $url git pull origin master:master "git pull" has known about misguided "pull" that lets the underlying fetch update the current branch for a long time. It also has known about "git pull origin master" into a branch yet to be born. These two workarounds however were not aware of the existence of each other and did not work well together. This fixes it. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

This test creates files with several different umasks and expects their permissions to be initialized according to the umask, so a default ACL on the trash directory (which overrides the umask for files created in that directory) causes the test to fail.

2008-10-16xdiff-interface.c: strip newline (and cr) from line before pattern matchingLibravatar Brandon Casey2-2/+12
POSIX doth sayeth: "In the regular expression processing described in IEEE Std 1003.1-2001, the <newline> is regarded as an ordinary character and both a period and a non-matching list can match one. ... Those utilities (like grep) that do not allow <newline>s to match are responsible for eliminating any <newline> from strings before matching against the RE." Thus far git has not been removing the trailing newline from strings matched against regular expression patterns. This has the effect that (quoting Jonathan del Strother) "... a line containing just 'FUNCNAME' (terminated by a newline) will be matched by the pattern '^(FUNCNAME.$)' but not '^(FUNCNAME$)'", and more simply not '^FUNCNAME$'.
