If an empty message is specified with the option -m of git commit then the editor is started. That's unexpected and unnecessary. Instead of using the length of the message string for checking if the user specified one, directly remember if the option -m was given.

2013-02-19git-commit: only append a newline to -m mesg if necessaryLibravatar Brandon Casey1-1/+3
Currently, git will append two newlines to every message supplied via the -m switch. The purpose of this is to allow -m to be supplied multiple times and have each supplied string become a paragraph in the resulting commit message. Normally, this does not cause a problem since any trailing newlines will be removed by the cleanup operation. If cleanup=verbatim for example, then the trailing newlines will not be removed and will survive into the resulting commit message. Instead, let's ensure that the string supplied to -m is newline terminated, but only append a second newline when appending additional messages. Fixes the test in t7502.

2013-01-26logmsg_reencode: never return NULLLibravatar Jeff King1-12/+2
The logmsg_reencode function will return the reencoded commit buffer, or NULL if reencoding failed or no reencoding was necessary. Since every caller then ends up checking for NULL and just using the commit's original buffer, anyway, we can be a bit more helpful and just return that buffer when we would have returned NULL. Since the resulting string may or may not need to be freed, we introduce a logmsg_free, which checks whether the buffer came from the commit object or not (callers either implemented the same check already, or kept two separate pointers, one to mark the buffer to be used, and one for the to-be-freed string). Pushing this logic into logmsg_* simplifies the callers, and will let future patches lazily load the commit buffer in a single place.

2013-01-26commit: drop useless xstrdup of commit messageLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
When git-commit is asked to reuse a commit message via "-c", we call read_commit_message, which looks up the commit and hands back either the re-encoded result, or a copy of the original. We make a copy in the latter case so that the ownership semantics of the return value are clear (in either case, it can be freed). However, since we return a "const char *", and since the resulting buffer's lifetime is the same as that of the whole program, we never bother to free it at all. Let's just drop the copy. That saves us a copy in the common case. While it does mean we leak in the re-encode case, it doesn't matter, since we are relying on program exit to free the memory anyway.

2013-01-14hooks: Add function to check if a hook existsLibravatar Aaron Schrab1-4/+2
Create find_hook() function to determine if a given hook exists and is executable. If it is, the path to the script will be returned, otherwise NULL is returned. This encapsulates the tests that are used to check for the existence of a hook in one place, making it easier to modify those checks if that is found to be necessary. This also makes it simple for places that can use a hook to check if a hook exists before doing, possibly lengthy, setup work which would be pointless if no such hook is present. The returned value is left as a static value from get_pathname() rather than a duplicate because it is anticipated that the return value will either be used as a boolean, immediately added to an argv_array list which would result in it being duplicated at that point, or used to actually run the command without much intervening work. Callers which need to hold onto the returned value for a longer time are expected to duplicate the return value themselves.

2012-11-15ident: keep separate "explicit" flags for author and committerLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+2
We keep track of whether the user ident was given to us explicitly, or if we guessed at it from system parameters like username and hostname. However, we kept only a single variable. This covers the common cases (because the author and committer will usually come from the same explicit source), but can miss two cases: 1. GIT_COMMITTER_* is set explicitly, but we fallback for GIT_AUTHOR. We claim the ident is explicit, even though the author is not. 2. GIT_AUTHOR_* is set and we ask for author ident, but not committer ident. We will claim the ident is implicit, even though it is explicit. This patch uses two variables instead of one, updates both when we set the "fallback" values, and updates them individually when we read from the environment. Rather than keep user_ident_sufficiently_given as a compatibility wrapper, we update the only two callers to check the committer_ident, which matches their intent and what was happening already.

2012-10-18status: add --long output format optionLibravatar Jeff King1-6/+23
You can currently set the output format to --short or --porcelain. There is no --long, because we default to it already. However, you may want to override an alias that uses "--short" to get back to the default. This requires a little bit of refactoring, because currently we use STATUS_FORMAT_LONG internally to mean the same as "the user did not specify anything". By expanding the enum to include STATUS_FORMAT_NONE, we can distinguish between the implicit and explicit cases. This effects these conditions: 1. The user has asked for NUL termination. With NONE, we currently default to turning on the porcelain mode. With an explicit --long, we would in theory use NUL termination with the long mode, but it does not support it. So we can just complain and die. 2. When an output format is given to "git commit", we default to "--dry-run". This behavior would now kick in when "--long" is given, too.

2012-07-23commit: check committer identity more strictlyLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
The identity of the committer will ultimately be pulled from the ident code by commit_tree(). However, we make an attempt to check the author and committer identity early, before the user has done any manual work like inputting a commit message. That lets us abort without them having to worry about salvaging the work from .git/COMMIT_EDITMSG. The early check for committer ident does not use the IDENT_STRICT flag, meaning that it would not find an empty name field. The motivation was presumably because we did not want to be too restrictive, as later calls might be more lax (for example, when we create the reflog entry, we do not care too much about a real name). However, because commit_tree will always get a strict identity to put in the commit object itself, there is no point in being lax only to die later (and in fact it is harmful, because the user will have wasted time typing their commit message). Incidentally, this bug was masked prior to 060d4bb, as the initial loose call would taint the later strict call. So the commit would succeed (albeit with a bogus committer line in the commit object), and nobody noticed that our early check did not match the later one.

2012-05-08status: refactor colopts handlingLibravatar Jeff King1-5/+4
The current code reads the config and command-line options into a separate "colopts" variable, and then copies the contents of that variable into the "struct wt_status". We can eliminate the extra variable and copy just write straight into the wt_status struct. This simplifies the "status" code a little bit. Unfortunately, it makes the "commit" code one line more complex; a side effect of the separate variable was that "commit" did not copy the colopts variable, so any column.status configuration had no effect. The result still ends up cleaner, though. In the previous version, it was unclear whether commit simply forgot to copy the colopt variable, or whether it was intentional. Now it explicitly turns off column options. Furthermore, if commit later learns to respect column.status, this will make the end result simpler. I punted on just adding that feature now, because it was sufficiently non-obvious that it should not go into a refactoring patch. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net>
