2011-08-19config: refactor get_colorbool functionLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+3
For "git config --get-colorbool color.foo", we use a custom callback that looks not only for the key that the user gave us, but also for "diff.color" (for backwards compatibility) and "color.ui" (as a fallback). For the former, we use a custom variable to store the diff.color value. For the latter, though, we store it in the main "git_use_color_default" variable, turning on color.ui for any other parts of git that respect this value. In practice, this doesn't cause any bugs, because git-config runs without caring about git_use_color_default, and then exits. But it crosses module boundaries in an unusual and confusing way, and it makes refactoring color handling harder than it needs to be.

2011-08-19color: delay auto-color decision until point of useLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+2
When we read a color value either from a config file or from the command line, we use git_config_colorbool to convert it from the tristate always/never/auto into a single yes/no boolean value. This has some timing implications with respect to starting a pager. If we start (or decide not to start) the pager before checking the colorbool, everything is fine. Either isatty(1) will give us the right information, or we will properly check for pager_in_use(). However, if we decide to start a pager after we have checked the colorbool, things are not so simple. If stdout is a tty, then we will have already decided to use color. However, the user may also have configured color.pager not to use color with the pager. In this case, we need to actually turn off color. Unfortunately, the pager code has no idea which color variables were turned on (and there are many of them throughout the code, and they may even have been manipulated after the colorbool selection by something like "--color" on the command line). This bug can be seen any time a pager is started after config and command line options are checked. This has affected "git diff" since 89d07f7 (diff: don't run pager if user asked for a diff style exit code, 2007-08-12). It has also affect the log family since 1fda91b (Fix 'git log' early pager startup error case, 2010-08-24). This patch splits the notion of parsing a colorbool and actually checking the configuration. The "use_color" variables now have an additional possible value, GIT_COLOR_AUTO. Users of the variable should use the new "want_color()" wrapper, which will lazily determine and cache the auto-color decision.

2011-08-18git_config_colorbool: refactor stdout_is_tty handlingLibravatar Jeff King1-16/+7
Usually this function figures out for itself whether stdout is a tty. However, it has an extra parameter just to allow git-config to override the auto-detection for its --get-colorbool option. Instead of an extra parameter, let's just use a global variable. This makes calling easier in the common case, and will make refactoring the colorbool code much simpler.

2011-05-17config: Give error message when not changing a multivarLibravatar Michael J Gruber1-1/+6
When trying to set a multivar with "git config var value", "git config" issues warning: remote.repoor.push has multiple values leaving the user under the impression that the operation succeeded, unless one checks the return value. Instead, make it warning: remote.repoor.push has multiple values error: cannot overwrite multiple values with a single value Use a regexp, --add or --set-all to change remote.repoor.push. to be clear and helpful. Note: The "warning" is raised through other code paths also so that it needs to remain a warning for these (which do not raise the error). Only the caller can determine how to go on from that.

2011-03-15config: drop support for GIT_CONFIG_NOGLOBALLibravatar Jonathan Nieder1-1/+1
Now that test-lib sets $HOME to protect against pollution from user settings, GIT_CONFIG_NOGLOBAL is not needed for use by the test suite any more. And as luck would have it, a quick code search reveals no other users in the wild. This patch does not affect GIT_CONFIG_NOSYSTEM, which is still needed.

2011-02-22Sanity-check config variable namesLibravatar Libor Pechacek1-7/+20
Sanity-check config variable names when adding and retrieving them. As a side effect code duplication between git_config_set_multivar and get_value (in builtin/config.c) was removed and the common functionality was placed in git_config_parse_key. This breaks a test in t1300 which used invalid section-less keys in the tests for "git -c". However, allowing such names there was useless, since there was no way to set them via config file, and no part of git actually tried to use section-less keys. This patch updates the test to use more realistic examples as well as adding its own test.

2010-02-22Move 'builtin-*' into a 'builtin/' subdirectoryLibravatar Linus Torvalds1-0/+496
This shrinks the top-level directory a bit, and makes it much more pleasant to use auto-completion on the thing. Instead of [torvalds@nehalem git]$ em buil<tab> Display all 180 possibilities? (y or n) [torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin-sh builtin-shortlog.c builtin-show-branch.c builtin-show-ref.c builtin-shortlog.o builtin-show-branch.o builtin-show-ref.o [torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin-shor<tab> builtin-shortlog.c builtin-shortlog.o [torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin-shortlog.c you get [torvalds@nehalem git]$ em buil<tab> [type] builtin/ builtin.h [torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin [auto-completes to] [torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin/sh<tab> [type] shortlog.c shortlog.o show-branch.c show-branch.o show-ref.c show-ref.o [torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin/sho [auto-completes to] [torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin/shor<tab> [type] shortlog.c shortlog.o [torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin/shortlog.c which doesn't seem all that different, but not having that annoying break in "Display all 180 possibilities?" is quite a relief. NOTE! If you do this in a clean tree (no object files etc), or using an editor that has auto-completion rules that ignores '*.o' files, you won't see that annoying 'Display all 180 possibilities?' message - it will just show the choices instead. I think bash has some cut-off around 100 choices or something. So the reason I see this is that I'm using an odd editory, and thus don't have the rules to cut down on auto-completion. But you can simulate that by using 'ls' instead, or something similar. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
