2016-05-11mingw: introduce the 'core.hideDotFiles' settingLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+6
On Unix (and Linux), files and directories whose names start with a dot are usually not shown by default. This convention is used by Git: the .git/ directory should be left alone by regular users, and only accessed through Git itself. On Windows, no such convention exists. Instead, there is an explicit flag to mark files or directories as hidden. In the early days, Git for Windows did not mark the .git/ directory (or for that matter, any file or directory whose name starts with a dot) hidden. This lead to quite a bit of confusion, and even loss of data. Consequently, Git for Windows introduced the core.hideDotFiles setting, with three possible values: true, false, and dotGitOnly, defaulting to marking only the .git/ directory as hidden. The rationale: users do not need to access .git/ directly, and indeed (as was demonstrated) should not really see that directory, either. However, not all dot files should be hidden by default, as e.g. Eclipse does not show them (and the user would therefore be unable to see, say, a .gitattributes file). In over five years since the last attempt to bring this patch into core Git, a slightly buggy version of this patch has served Git for Windows' users well: no single report indicated problems with the hidden .git/ directory, and the stream of problems caused by the previously non-hidden .git/ directory simply stopped. The bugs have been fixed during the process of getting this patch upstream. Note that there is a funny quirk we have to pay attention to when creating hidden files: we use Win32's _wopen() function which transmogrifies its arguments and hands off to Win32's CreateFile() function. That latter function errors out with ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED (the equivalent of EACCES) when the equivalent of the O_CREAT flag was passed and the file attributes (including the hidden flag) do not match an existing file's. And _wopen() accepts no parameter that would be transmogrified into said hidden flag. Therefore, we simply try again without O_CREAT. A slightly different method is required for our fopen()/freopen() function as we cannot even *remove* the implicit O_CREAT flag. Therefore, we briefly mark existing files as unhidden when opening them via fopen()/freopen(). The ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED error can also be triggered by opening a file that is marked as a system file (which is unlikely to be tracked in Git), and by trying to create a file that has *just* been deleted and is awaiting the last open handles to be released (which would be handled better by the "Try again?" logic, a story for a different patch series, though). In both cases, it does not matter much if we try again without the O_CREAT flag, read: it does not hurt, either.

2016-05-04hooks: allow customizing where the hook directory isLibravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-0/+17
Change the hardcoded lookup for .git/hooks/* to optionally lookup in $(git config core.hooksPath)/* instead. This is essentially a more intrusive version of the git-init ability to specify hooks on init time via init templates. The difference between that facility and this feature is that this can be set up after the fact via e.g. ~/.gitconfig or /etc/gitconfig to apply for all your personal repositories, or all repositories on the system. I plan on using this on a centralized Git server where users can create arbitrary repositories under /gitroot, but I'd like to manage all the hooks that should be run centrally via a unified dispatch mechanism.

2016-04-27http: support sending custom HTTP headersLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+6
We introduce a way to send custom HTTP headers with all requests. This allows us, for example, to send an extra token from build agents for temporary access to private repositories. (This is the use case that triggered this patch.) This feature can be used like this: git -c http.extraheader='Secret: sssh!' fetch $URL $REF Note that `curl_easy_setopt(..., CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, ...)` takes only a single list, overriding any previous call. This means we have to collect _all_ of the headers we want to use into a single list, and feed it to cURL in one shot. Since we already unconditionally set a "pragma" header when initializing the curl handles, we can add our new headers to that list. For callers which override the default header list (like probe_rpc), we provide `http_copy_default_headers()` so they can do the same trick.

The `tag.forcesignannotated` configuration variable makes "git tag" that would implicitly create an annotated tag to instead create a signed tag. For example $ git tag -m "This is a message" tag-with-message $ git tag -F message-file tag-with-message would create a signed tag if the configuration variable is in effect. To override this from the command line, the user can explicitly ask for an annotated tag, like so: $ git tag -a -m "This is a message" tag-with-message $ git tag -a -F message-file tag-with-message Creation of a light-weight tag, i.e. $ git tag lightweight is not affected.

2016-02-28add--interactive: allow custom diff highlighting programsLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+8
The patch hunk selector of add--interactive knows how ask git for colorized diffs, and correlate them with the uncolored diffs we apply. But there's not any way for somebody who uses a diff-filter tool like contrib's diff-highlight to see their normal highlighting. This patch lets users define an arbitrary shell command to pipe the colorized diff through. The exact output shouldn't matter (since we just show the result to humans) as long as it is line-compatible with the original diff (so that hunk-splitting can split the colorized version, too). I left two minor issues with the new system that I don't think are worth fixing right now, but could be done later: 1. We only filter colorized diffs. Theoretically a user could want to filter a non-colorized diff, but I find it unlikely in practice. Users who are doing things like diff-highlighting are likely to want color, too. 2. add--interactive will re-colorize a diff which has been hand-edited, but it won't have run through the filter. Fixing this is conceptually easy (just pipe the diff through the filter), but practically hard to do without using tempfiles (it would need to feed data to and read the result from the filter without deadlocking; this raises portability questions with respect to Windows). I've punted on both issues for now, and if somebody really cares later, they can do a patch on top. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2016-02-26credential: let empty credential specs reset helper listLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+3
Sine the credential.helper key is a multi-valued config list, there's no way to "unset" a helper once it's been set. So if your system /etc/gitconfig sets one, you can never avoid running it, but only add your own helpers on top. Since an empty value for credential.helper is nonsensical (it would just try to run "git-credential-"), we can assume nobody is using it. Let's define it to reset the helper list, letting you override lower-priority instances which have come before.

It used to be that: git config --global user.email "(none)" was a viable way for people to force themselves to set user.email in each repository. This was helpful for people with more than one email address, targeting different email addresses for different clones, as it barred git from creating a commit unless the user.email config was set in the per-repo config to the correct email address. A recent change, 19ce497c (ident: keep a flag for bogus default_email, 2015-12-10), however, declared that an explicitly configured user.email is not bogus, no matter what its value is, so this hack no longer works.

2016-02-01transport: drop support for git-over-rsyncLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
The git-over-rsync protocol is inefficient and broken, and has been for a long time. It transfers way more objects than it needs (grabbing all of the remote's "objects/", regardless of which objects we need). It does its own ad-hoc parsing of loose and packed refs from the remote, but doesn't properly override packed refs with loose ones, leading to garbage results (e.g., expecting the other side to have an object pointed to by a stale packed-refs entry, or complaining that the other side has two copies of the refs[1]). This latter breakage means that nobody could have successfully pulled from a moderately active repository since cd547b4 (fetch/push: readd rsync support, 2007-10-01). We never made an official deprecation notice in the release notes for git's rsync protocol, but the tutorial has marked it as such since 914328a (Update tutorial., 2005-08-30). And on the mailing list as far back as Oct 2005, we can find Junio mentioning it as having "been deprecated for quite some time."[2,3,4]. So it was old news then; cogito had deprecated the transport in July of 2005[5] (though it did come back briefly when Linus broke git-http-pull!). Of course some people professed their love of rsync through 2006, but Linus clarified in his usual gentle manner[6]: > Thanks! This is why I still use rsync, even though > everybody and their mother tells me "Linus says rsync is > deprecated." No. You're using rsync because you're actively doing something _wrong_. The deprecation sentiment was reinforced in 2008, with a mention that cloning via rsync is broken (with no fix)[7]. Even the commit porting rsync over to C from shell (cd547b4) lists it as deprecated! So between the 10 years of informal warnings, and the fact that it has been severely broken since 2007, it's probably safe to simply remove it without further deprecation warnings.

2016-01-27config: add core.untrackedCacheLibravatar Christian Couder1-0/+9
When we know that mtime on directory as given by the environment is usable for the purpose of untracked cache, we may want the untracked cache to be always used without any mtime test or kernel name check being performed. Also when we know that mtime is not usable for the purpose of untracked cache, for example because the repo is shared over a network file system, we may want the untracked-cache to be automatically removed from the index. Allow the user to express such preference by setting the 'core.untrackedCache' configuration variable, which can take 'keep', 'false', or 'true' and default to 'keep'. When read_index_from() is called, it now adds or removes the untracked cache in the index to respect the value of this variable. So it does nothing if the value is `keep` or if the variable is unset; it adds the untracked cache if the value is `true`; and it removes the cache if the value is `false`. `git update-index --[no-|force-]untracked-cache` still adds the untracked cache to, or removes it, from the index, but this shows a warning if it goes against the value of core.untrackedCache, because the next time the index is read the untracked cache will be added or removed if the configuration is set to do so. Also `--untracked-cache` used to check that the underlying operating system and file system change `st_mtime` field of a directory if files are added or deleted in that directory. But because those tests take a long time, `--untracked-cache` no longer performs them. Instead, there is now `--test-untracked-cache` to perform the tests. This change makes `--untracked-cache` the same as `--force-untracked-cache`. This last change is backward incompatible and should be mentioned in the release notes.

Usually, this means they will end up on disk unencrypted, one way or another (by inclusion in ~/.gitconfig, shell profile or history). Since proxy authentication often uses a domain user, credentials can be security sensitive; therefore, a safer way of passing credentials is desirable. If the configured proxy contains a username but not a password, query the credential API for one. Also, make sure we approve/reject proxy credentials properly. For consistency reasons, add parsing of http_proxy/https_proxy/all_proxy environment variables, which would otherwise be evaluated as a fallback by curl. Without this, we would have different semantics for git configuration and environment variables.

2016-01-26http: allow selection of proxy authentication methodLibravatar Knut Franke1-0/+26
CURLAUTH_ANY does not work with proxies which answer unauthenticated requests with a 307 redirect to an error page instead of a 407 listing supported authentication methods. Therefore, allow the authentication method to be set using the environment variable GIT_HTTP_PROXY_AUTHMETHOD or configuration variables http.proxyAuthmethod and remote.<name>.proxyAuthmethod (in analogy to http.proxy and remote.<name>.proxy). The following values are supported: * anyauth (default) * basic * digest * negotiate * ntlm Signed-off-by: Knut Franke <k.franke@science-computing.de> Signed-off-by: Elia Pinto <gitter.spiros@gmail.com> Helped-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com> Helped-by: Eric Sunshine <sunshine@sunshineco.com> Helped-by: Elia Pinto <gitter.spiros@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2016-01-20Merge branch 'tg/grep-no-index-fallback'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+4
"git grep" by default does not fall back to its "--no-index" behaviour outside a directory under Git's control (otherwise the user may by mistake end up running a huge recursive search); with a new configuration (set in $HOME/.gitconfig--by definition this cannot be set in the config file per project), this safety can be disabled. * tg/grep-no-index-fallback: builtin/grep: add grep.fallbackToNoIndex config t7810: correct --no-index test
2016-01-13pull: allow interactive rebase with --rebase=interactiveLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+4
A couple of years ago, I found the need to collaborate on topic branches that were rebased all the time, and I really needed to see what I was rebasing when pulling, so I introduced an interactively-rebasing pull. The way builtin pull works, this change also supports the value 'interactive' for the 'branch.<name>.rebase' config variable, which is a neat thing because users can now configure given branches for interactively-rebasing pulls without having to type out the complete `--rebase=interactive` option every time they pull.

2016-01-13format-patch: introduce format.outputDirectory configurationLibravatar Alexander Kuleshov1-0/+4
We can pass -o/--output-directory to the format-patch command to store patches in some place other than the working directory. This patch introduces format.outputDirectory configuration option for same purpose. The case of usage of this configuration option can be convenience to not pass every time -o/--output-directory if an user has pattern to store all patches in the /patches directory for example. The format.outputDirectory has lower priority than command line option, so if user will set format.outputDirectory and pass the command line option, a result will be stored in a directory that passed to command line option.
