2007-03-02Add core.symlinks to mark filesystems that do not support symbolic links.Libravatar Johannes Sixt1-3/+3
Some file systems that can host git repositories and their working copies do not support symbolic links. But then if the repository contains a symbolic link, it is impossible to check out the working copy. This patch enables partial support of symbolic links so that it is possible to check out a working copy on such a file system. A new flag core.symlinks (which is true by default) can be set to false to indicate that the filesystem does not support symbolic links. In this case, symbolic links that exist in the trees are checked out as small plain files, and checking in modifications of these files preserve the symlink property in the database (as long as an entry exists in the index). Of course, this does not magically make symbolic links work on such defective file systems; hence, this solution does not help if the working copy relies on that an entry is a real symbolic link.

2007-02-24Evil Merge branch 'jc/status' (early part) into js/diff-niLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+10
* 'jc/status' (early part): run_diff_{files,index}(): update calling convention. update-index: do not die too early in a read-only repository. git-status: do not be totally useless in a read-only repository. This is to resolve semantic conflict (which is not textual) that changes the calling convention of run_diff_files() early.
2007-02-22update-index: do not die too early in a read-only repository.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+10
This delays the error exit from hold_lock_file_for_update() in update-index, so that "update-index --refresh" in a read-only repository can still report what paths are stat-dirty before exiting. Also it makes -q to squelch the error message. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2007-02-16Do not take mode bits from index after type change.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-6/+7
When we do not trust executable bit from lstat(2), we copied existing ce_mode bits without checking if the filesystem object is a regular file (which is the only thing we apply the "trust executable bit" business) nor if the blob in the index is a regular file (otherwise, we should do the same as registering a new regular file, which is to default non-executable).

2007-01-31Fix git-update-index to work with relative pathnames.Libravatar Alex Riesen1-2/+6

2006-11-22trust-executable-bit: fix breakage for symlinksLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-3/+3
An earlier commit f28b34a broke symlinks when trust-executable-bit is not set because it incorrectly assumed that everything was a regular file. Reported by Juergen Ruehle. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2006-09-26Ignore executable bit when adding files if filemode=0.Libravatar Shawn Pearce1-1/+3
If the user has configured core.filemode=0 then we shouldn't set the execute bit in the index when adding a new file as the user has indicated that the local filesystem can't be trusted. This means that when adding files that should be marked executable in a repository with core.filemode=0 the user must perform a 'git update-index --chmod=+x' on the file before committing the addition.

2006-08-23Convert memcpy(a,b,20) to hashcpy(a,b).Libravatar Shawn Pearce1-2/+2
This abstracts away the size of the hash values when copying them from memory location to memory location, much as the introduction of hashcmp abstracted away hash value comparsion. A few call sites were using char* rather than unsigned char* so I added the cast rather than open hashcpy to be void*. This is a reasonable tradeoff as most call sites already use unsigned char* and the existing hashcmp is also declared to be unsigned char*. [jc: Splitted the patch to "master" part, to be followed by a patch for merge-recursive.c which is not in "master" yet. Fixed the cast in the latter hunk to combine-diff.c which was wrong in the original. Also converted ones left-over in combine-diff.c, diff-lib.c and upload-pack.c ] Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

Introduces global inline: hashcmp(const unsigned char *sha1, const unsigned char *sha2) Uses memcmp for comparison and returns the result based on the length of the hash name (a future runtime decision).

2006-08-12Better error message when we are unable to lock the index fileLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-3/+1
Most of the callers except the one in refs.c use the function to update the index file. Among the index writers, everybody except write-tree dies if they cannot open it for writing. This gives the function an extra argument, to tell it to die when it cannot create a new file as the lockfile. The only caller that does not have to die is write-tree, because updating the index for the cache-tree part is optional and not being able to do so does not affect the correctness. I think we do not have to be so careful and make the failure into die() the same way as other callers, but that would be a different patch. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
