2016-02-22config: rename git_config_set_or_die to git_config_setLibravatar Patrick Steinhardt1-2/+2
Rename git_config_set_or_die functions to git_config_set, leading to the new default behavior of dying whenever a configuration error occurs. By now all callers that shall die on error have been transitioned to the _or_die variants, thus making this patch a simple rename of the functions.

2016-02-22compat: die when unable to set core.precomposeunicodeLibravatar Patrick Steinhardt1-1/+2
When calling `git_config_set` to set 'core.precomposeunicode' we ignore the return value of the function, which may indicate that we were unable to write the value back to disk. As the function is only called by init-db we can and should die when an error occurs. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2015-10-05probe_utf8_pathname_composition: use internal strbufLibravatar Jeff King1-8/+10
When we are initializing a .git directory, we may call probe_utf8_pathname_composition to detect utf8 mangling. We pass in a path buffer for it to use, and it blindly strcpy()s into it, not knowing whether the buffer is large enough to hold the result or not. In practice this isn't a big deal, because the buffer we pass in already contains "$GIT_DIR/config", and we append only a few extra bytes to it. But we can easily do the right thing just by calling git_path_buf ourselves. Technically this results in a different pathname (before we appended our utf8 characters to the "config" path, and now they get their own files in $GIT_DIR), but that should not matter for our purposes.

2015-10-05precompose_utf8: drop unused variableLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+1
The result of iconv is assigned to a variable, but we never use it (instead, we check errno and whether the function consumed all bytes). Let's drop the assignment, as it triggers gcc's -Wunused-but-set-variable. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2013-08-27Set core.precomposeunicode to true on e.g. HFS+Libravatar Torsten Bögershausen1-5/+2
When core.precomposeunicode was introduced in 76759c7d, it was set to false on a unicode decomposing file system like HFS+ to be compatible with older versions of Git. The Mac OS users need to find out that this configuration exist and change it manually from false to true. A smoother workflow can be achieved, so set core.precomposeunicode to true on a decomposing file system.

2012-08-20precompose-utf8: do not call checks for non-ascii "utf8"Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-8/+8
As suggested by Linus, this function is not checking UTF-8-ness of the string; it only is seeing if it is pure US-ASCII. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2012-08-17cleanup precompose_utf8Libravatar Robin Rosenberg1-20/+14
- Remove extraneous parentheses and braces; - Remove redundant NUL-termination before strcpy(); - Check result of unlink when probing for decomposed file names; - Adjust for the coding style by adding missing whitespaces; - Move storage class "static" at the beginning of the decl.

2012-07-08git on Mac OS and precomposed unicodeLibravatar Torsten Bögershausen1-0/+190
Mac OS X mangles file names containing unicode on file systems HFS+, VFAT or SAMBA. When a file using unicode code points outside ASCII is created on a HFS+ drive, the file name is converted into decomposed unicode and written to disk. No conversion is done if the file name is already decomposed unicode. Calling open("\xc3\x84", ...) with a precomposed "Ä" yields the same result as open("\x41\xcc\x88",...) with a decomposed "Ä". As a consequence, readdir() returns the file names in decomposed unicode, even if the user expects precomposed unicode. Unlike on HFS+, Mac OS X stores files on a VFAT drive (e.g. an USB drive) in precomposed unicode, but readdir() still returns file names in decomposed unicode. When a git repository is stored on a network share using SAMBA, file names are send over the wire and written to disk on the remote system in precomposed unicode, but Mac OS X readdir() returns decomposed unicode to be compatible with its behaviour on HFS+ and VFAT. The unicode decomposition causes many problems: - The names "git add" and other commands get from the end user may often be precomposed form (the decomposed form is not easily input from the keyboard), but when the commands read from the filesystem to see what it is going to update the index with already is on the filesystem, readdir() will give decomposed form, which is different. - Similarly "git log", "git mv" and all other commands that need to compare pathnames found on the command line (often but not always precomposed form; a command line input resulting from globbing may be in decomposed) with pathnames found in the tree objects (should be precomposed form to be compatible with other systems and for consistency in general). - The same for names stored in the index, which should be precomposed, that may need to be compared with the names read from readdir(). NFS mounted from Linux is fully transparent and does not suffer from the above. As Mac OS X treats precomposed and decomposed file names as equal, we can - wrap readdir() on Mac OS X to return the precomposed form, and - normalize decomposed form given from the command line also to the precomposed form, to ensure that all pathnames used in Git are always in the precomposed form. This behaviour can be requested by setting "core.precomposedunicode" configuration variable to true. The code in compat/precomposed_utf8.c implements basically 4 new functions: precomposed_utf8_opendir(), precomposed_utf8_readdir(), precomposed_utf8_closedir() and precompose_argv(). The first three are to wrap opendir(3), readdir(3), and closedir(3) functions. The argv[] conversion allows to use the TAB filename completion done by the shell on command line. It tolerates other tools which use readdir() to feed decomposed file names into git. When creating a new git repository with "git init" or "git clone", "core.precomposedunicode" will be set "false". The user needs to activate this feature manually. She typically sets core.precomposedunicode to "true" on HFS and VFAT, or file systems mounted via SAMBA.
