2014-12-17read-cache: optionally disallow NTFS .git variantsLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+6
The point of disallowing ".git" in the index is that we would never want to accidentally overwrite files in the repository directory. But this means we need to respect the filesystem's idea of when two paths are equal. The prior commit added a helper to make such a comparison for NTFS and FAT32; let's use it in verify_path(). We make this check optional for two reasons: 1. It restricts the set of allowable filenames, which is unnecessary for people who are not on NTFS nor FAT32. In practice this probably doesn't matter, though, as the restricted names are rather obscure and almost certainly would never come up in practice. 2. It has a minor performance penalty for every path we insert into the index. This patch ties the check to the core.protectNTFS config option. Though this is expected to be most useful on Windows, we allow it to be set everywhere, as NTFS may be mounted on other platforms. The variable does default to on for Windows, though.

A request to store an empty note via "git notes" meant to remove note from the object but with --allow-empty we will store a (surprise!) note that is empty.

This is not possible with existing GIT_SSH mechanism whose invocation bypasses shells, which was designed more to match what other programs with similar variables did, not necessarily to be more useful. * tq/git-ssh-command: git_connect: set ssh shell command in GIT_SSH_COMMAND

2014-11-12builtin/notes: add --allow-empty, to allow storing empty notesLibravatar Johan Herland1-4/+8
Although the "git notes" man page advertises that we support binary-safe notes addition (using the -C option), we currently do not support adding the empty note (i.e. using the empty blob to annotate an object). Instead, an empty note is always treated as an intent to remove the note altogether. Introduce the --allow-empty option to the add/append/edit subcommands, to explicitly allow an empty note to be stored into the notes tree. Also update the documentation, and add test cases for the new option. Reported-by: James H. Fisher <jhf@trifork.com> Improved-by: Kyle J.

2014-11-10git_connect: set ssh shell command in GIT_SSH_COMMANDLibravatar Thomas Quinot1-12/+14
It may be impractical to install a wrapper script for GIT_SSH when additional parameters need to be passed. Provide an alternative way of specifying a shell command to be run, including command line arguments, by means of the GIT_SSH_COMMAND environment variable, which behaves like GIT_SSH but is passed to the shell. The special circuitry to modify parameters in the case of using PuTTY's plink/tortoiseplink is activated only when using GIT_SSH; in the case of using GIT_SSH_COMMAND, it is deliberately left up to the user to make any required parameters adaptation before calling the underlying ssh implementation.
