2017-11-03setup: avoid double slashes when looking for HEADLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+3
Andrew Baumann reported that when called outside of any Git worktree, `git rev-parse --is-inside-work-tree` eventually tries to access `//HEAD`, i.e. any `HEAD` file in the root directory, but with a double slash. This double slash is not only unintentional, but is allowed by the POSIX standard to have a special meaning. And most notably on Windows, it does, where it refers to a UNC path of the form `//server/share/`. As a consequence, afore-mentioned `rev-parse` call not only looks for the wrong thing, but it also causes serious delays, as Windows will try to access a server called `HEAD`. Let's simply avoid the unintended double slash. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Acked-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2017-03-14t1309: document cases where we would want early config not to die()Libravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+24
Jeff King came up with a couple examples that demonstrate how the new read_early_config() that looks harder for the current .git/ directory could die() in an undesirable way. Let's add those cases to the test script, to document what we would like to happen when early config encounters problems.

2017-03-14setup_git_directory_gently_1(): avoid die()ingLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-8/+17
This function now has a new caller in addition to setup_git_directory(): the newly introduced discover_git_directory(). That function wants to discover the current .git/ directory, and in case of a corrupted one simply pretend that there is none to be found. Example: if a stale .git file exists in the parent directory, and the user calls `git -p init`, we want Git to simply *not* read any repository config for the pager (instead of aborting with a message that the .git file is corrupt). Let's actually pretend that there was no GIT_DIR to be found in that case when being called from discover_git_directory(), but keep the previous behavior (i.e. to die()) for the setup_git_directory() case.

2017-03-14read_early_config(): really discover .git/Libravatar Johannes Schindelin2-23/+16
Earlier, we punted and simply assumed that we are in the top-level directory of the project, and that there is no .git file but a .git/ directory so that we can read directly from .git/config. However, that is not necessarily true. We may be in a subdirectory. Or .git may be a gitfile. Or the environment variable GIT_DIR may be set. To remedy this situation, we just refactored the way setup_git_directory() discovers the .git/ directory, to make it reusable, and more importantly, to leave all global variables and the current working directory alone. Let's discover the .git/ directory correctly in read_early_config() by using that new function. This fixes 4 known breakages in t7006.

2017-03-14read_early_config(): avoid .git/config hack when unneededLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-2/+3
So far, we only look whether the startup_info claims to have seen a git_dir. However, do_git_config_sequence() (and consequently the git_config_with_options() call used by read_early_config() asks the have_git_dir() function whether we have a .git/ directory, which in turn also looks at git_dir and at the environment variable GIT_DIR. And when this is the case, the repository config is handled already, so we do not have to do that again explicitly. Let's just use the same function, have_git_dir(), to determine whether we have to handle .git/config explicitly.

2017-03-14setup: make read_early_config() reusableLibravatar Johannes Schindelin3-31/+32
The pager configuration needs to be read early, possibly before discovering any .git/ directory. Let's not hide this function in pager.c, but make it available to other callers. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2017-03-14setup: introduce the discover_git_directory() functionLibravatar Johannes Schindelin2-0/+50
We modified the setup_git_directory_gently_1() function earlier to make it possible to discover the GIT_DIR without changing global state. However, it is still a bit cumbersome to use if you only need to figure out the (possibly absolute) path of the .git/ directory. Let's just provide a convenient wrapper function with an easier signature that *just* discovers the .git/ directory. We will use it in a subsequent patch to fix the early config.

2017-03-14setup_git_directory_1(): avoid changing global stateLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-75/+118
For historical reasons, Git searches for the .git/ directory (or the .git file) by changing the working directory successively to the parent directory of the current directory, until either anything was found or until a ceiling or a mount point is hit. Further global state may be changed in case a .git/ directory was found. We do have a use case, though, where we would like to find the .git/ directory without having any global state touched, though: when we read the early config e.g. for the pager or for alias expansion. Let's just move all of code that changes any global state out of the function `setup_git_directory_gently_1()` into `setup_git_directory_gently()`. In subsequent patches, we will use the _1() function in a new `discover_git_directory()` function that we will then use for the early config code. Note: the new loop is a *little* tricky, as we have to handle the root directory specially: we cannot simply strip away the last component including the slash, as the root directory only has that slash. To remedy that, we introduce the `min_offset` variable that holds the minimal length of an absolute path, and using that to special-case the root directory, including an early exit before trying to find the parent of the root directory.

2017-03-14setup: prepare setup_discovered_git_dir() for the root directoryLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-2/+4
Currently, the offset parameter (indicating what part of the cwd parameter corresponds to the current directory after discovering the .git/ directory) is set to 0 when we are running in the root directory. However, in the next patches we will avoid changing the current working directory while searching for the .git/ directory, meaning that the offset corresponding to the root directory will have to be 1 to reflect that this directory is characterized by the path "/" (and not ""). So let's make sure that setup_discovered_git_directory() only tries to append the trailing slash to non-root directories. Note: the setup_bare_git_directory() does not need a corresponding change, as it does not want to return a prefix.

2017-03-07setup_git_directory(): use is_dir_sep() helperLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-1/+3
It is okay in practice to test for forward slashes in the output of getcwd(), because we go out of our way to convert backslashes to forward slashes in getcwd()'s output on Windows. Still, the correct way to test for a dir separator is by using the helper function we introduced for that very purpose. It also serves as a good documentation what the code tries to do (not "how").

2017-03-03t7006: replace dubious testLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-1/+11
The idea of the test case "git -p - core.pager is not used from subdirectory" was to verify that the setup_git_directory() function had not been called just to obtain the core.pager setting. However, we are about to fix the early config machinery so that it *does* work, without messing up the global state. Once that is done, the core.pager setting *will* be used, even when running from a subdirectory, and that is a Good Thing. The intention of that test case, however, was to verify that the setup_git_directory() function has not run, because it changes global state such as the current working directory. To keep that spirit, but fix the incorrect assumption, this patch replaces that test case by a new one that verifies that the pager is run in the subdirectory, i.e. that the current working directory has not been changed at the time the pager is configured and launched, even if the `rev-parse` command requires a .git/ directory and *will* change the working directory.
