2009-06-27Use die_errno() instead of die() when checking syscallsLibravatar Thomas Rast1-6/+6
Lots of die() calls did not actually report the kind of error, which can leave the user confused as to the real problem. Use die_errno() where we check a system/library call that sets errno on failure, or one of the following that wrap such calls: Function Passes on error from -------- -------------------- odb_pack_keep open read_ancestry fopen read_in_full xread strbuf_read xread strbuf_read_file open or strbuf_read_file strbuf_readlink readlink write_in_full xwrite Signed-off-by: Thomas Rast <trast@student.ethz.ch> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2008-09-09is_directory(): a generic helper functionLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+12
A simple "grep -e stat --and -e S_ISDIR" revealed there are many open-coded implementations of this function. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2008-07-25Allow add_path() to add non-existent directories to the pathLibravatar Johannes Sixt1-0/+36
This function had used make_absolute_path(); but this function dies if the directory that contains the entry whose relative path was supplied in the argument does not exist. This is a problem if the argument is, for example, "../libexec/git-core", and that "../libexec" does not exist. Since the resolution of symbolic links is not required for elements in PATH, we can fall back to using make_nonrelative_path(), which simply prepends $PWD to the path. We have to move make_nonrelative_path() alongside make_absolute_path() in abspath.c so that git-shell can be linked. See 5b8e6f85f.

2008-06-27shrink git-shell by avoiding redundant dependenciesLibravatar Dmitry Potapov1-0/+68
A lot of modules that have nothing to do with git-shell functionality were linked in, bloating git-shell more than 8 times. This patch cuts off redundant dependencies by: 1. providing stubs for three functions that make no sense for git-shell; 2. moving quote_path_fully from environment.c to quote.c to make the later self sufficient; 3. moving make_absolute_path into a new separate file.
