2012-07-16config: fix several access(NULL) callsLibravatar Matthieu Moy1-2/+2
When $HOME is unset, home_config_paths fails and returns NULL pointers for user_config and xdg_config. Valgrind complains with Syscall param access(pathname) points to unaddressable byte(s). Don't call blindly access() on these variables, but test them for NULL-ness before. Signed-off-by: Matthieu Moy <Matthieu.Moy@imag.fr> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2012-07-13Merge branch 'tb/sanitize-decomposed-utf-8-pathname'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+5
Teaches git to normalize pathnames read from readdir(3) and all arguments from the command line into precomposed UTF-8 (assuming that they come as decomposed UTF-8) to work around issues on Mac OS. I think there still are other places that need conversion (e.g. paths that are read from stdin for some commands), but this should be a good first step in the right direction. * tb/sanitize-decomposed-utf-8-pathname: git on Mac OS and precomposed unicode
2012-07-08git on Mac OS and precomposed unicodeLibravatar Torsten Bögershausen1-0/+5
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.

2012-06-25config: read (but not write) from $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/git/config fileLibravatar Huynh Khoi Nguyen Nguyen1-9/+14
Teach git to read the "gitconfig" information from a new location, $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/git/config; this allows the user to avoid cluttering $HOME with many per-application configuration files. In the order of reading, this file comes between the global configuration file (typically $HOME/.gitconfig) and the system wide configuration file (typically /etc/gitconfig). We do not write to this new location (yet). If $XDG_CONFIG_HOME is either not set or empty, $HOME/.config/git/config will be used. This is in line with XDG specification. If the new file does not exist, the behavior is unchanged.

New users tend to work on one branch at a time and push the result out.

2012-04-24push: introduce new push.default mode "simple"Libravatar Matthieu Moy1-2/+4
When calling "git push" without argument, we want to allow Git to do something simple to explain and safe. push.default=matching is unsafe when used to push to shared repositories, and hard to explain to beginners in some contexts. It is debatable whether 'upstream' or 'current' is the safest or the easiest to explain, so introduce a new mode called 'simple' that is the intersection of them: push to the upstream branch, but only if it has the same name remotely. If not, give an error that suggests the right command to push explicitely to 'upstream' or 'current'. A question is whether to allow pushing when no upstream is configured. An argument in favor of allowing the push is that it makes the new mode work in more cases. On the other hand, refusing to push when no upstream is configured encourages the user to set the upstream, which will be beneficial on the next pull. Lacking better argument, we chose to deny the push, because it will be easier to change in the future if someone shows us wrong.

2012-02-17config: add include directiveLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+73
It can be useful to split your ~/.gitconfig across multiple files. For example, you might have a "main" file which is used on many machines, but a small set of per-machine tweaks. Or you may want to make some of your config public (e.g., clever aliases) while keeping other data back (e.g., your name or other identifying information). Or you may want to include a number of config options in some subset of your repos without copying and pasting (e.g., you want to reference them from the .git/config of participating repos). This patch introduces an include directive for config files. It looks like: [include] path = /path/to/file This is syntactically backwards-compatible with existing git config parsers (i.e., they will see it as another config entry and ignore it unless you are looking up include.path). The implementation provides a "git_config_include" callback which wraps regular config callbacks. Callers can pass it to git_config_from_file, and it will transparently follow any include directives, passing all of the discovered options to the real callback. Include directives are turned on automatically for "regular" git config parsing. This includes calls to git_config, as well as calls to the "git config" program that do not specify a single file (e.g., using "-f", "--global", etc). They are not turned on in other cases, including: 1. Parsing of other config-like files, like .gitmodules. There isn't a real need, and I'd rather be conservative and avoid unnecessary incompatibility or confusion. 2. Reading single files via "git config". This is for two reasons: a. backwards compatibility with scripts looking at config-like files. b. inspection of a specific file probably means you care about just what's in that file, not a general lookup for "do we have this value anywhere at all". If that is not the case, the caller can always specify "--includes". 3. Writing files via "git config"; we want to treat include.* variables as literal items to be copied (or modified), and not expand them. So "git config --unset-all foo.bar" would operate _only_ on .git/config, not any of its included files (just as it also does not operate on ~/.gitconfig).

2012-02-17config: eliminate config_exclusive_filenameLibravatar Jeff King1-7/+3
This is a magic global variable that was intended as an override to the usual git-config lookup process. Once upon a time, you could specify GIT_CONFIG to any git program, and it would look only at that file. This turned out to be confusing and cause a lot of bugs for little gain. As a result, dc87183 (Only use GIT_CONFIG in "git config", not other programs, 2008-06-30) took this away for all callers except git-config. Since git-config no longer uses it either, the variable can just go away. As the diff shows, nobody was setting to anything except NULL, so we can just replace any sites where it was read with NULL.

2012-02-17config: provide a version of git_config with more optionsLibravatar Jeff King1-4/+14
Callers may want to provide a specific version of a file in which to look for config. Right now this can be done by setting the magic global config_exclusive_filename variable. By providing a version of git_config that takes a filename, we can take a step towards making this magic global go away. Furthermore, by providing a more "advanced" interface, we now have a a natural place to add new options for callers like git-config, which care about tweaking the specifics of config lookup, without disturbing the large number of "simple" users (i.e., every other part of git). The astute reader of this patch may notice that the logic for handling config_exclusive_filename was taken out of git_config_early, but added into git_config. This means that git_config_early will no longer respect config_exclusive_filename. That's OK, because the only other caller of git_config_early is check_repository_format_gently, but the only function which sets config_exclusive_filename is cmd_config, which does not call check_repository_format_gently (and if it did, it would have been a bug, anyway, as we would be checking the repository format in the wrong file).

2012-02-17config: teach git_config_set_multivar_in_file a default pathLibravatar Jeff King1-13/+7
The git_config_set_multivar_in_file function takes a filename argument to specify the file into which the values should be written. Currently, this value must be non-NULL. Callers which want to write to the default location must use the regular, non-"in_file" version, which will either write to config_exclusive_filename, or to the repo config if the exclusive filename is NULL. Let's migrate the "default to using repo config" logic into the "in_file" form. That will let callers get the same default-if-NULL behavior as one gets with config_exclusive_filename, but without having to use the global variable.

2011-11-20config.c: Fix a static buffer overwrite bug by avoiding mkpath()Libravatar Ramsay Jones1-2/+2
On cygwin, test number 21 of t3200-branch.sh (git branch -m q q2 without config should succeed) fails. The failure involves the functions from path.c which parcel out internal static buffers from the git_path() and mkpath() functions. In particular, the rename_ref() function calls safe_create_leading\ _directories() with a filename returned by git_path("logs/%s", ref). safe_create_leading_directories(), in turn, calls stat() on each element of the path it is given. On cygwin, this leads to a call to git_config() for each component of the path, since this test explicitly removes the config file. git_config() calls mkpath(), so on the fourth component of the path, the original buffer passed into the function is overwritten with the config filename. Note that this bug is specific to cygwin and it's schizophrenic stat() functions (see commits adbc0b6, 7faee6b and 7974843). The lack of a config file and a path with at least four elements is also important to trigger the bug. In order to fix the problem, we replace the call to mkpath() with a call to mksnpath() and provide our own buffer.

2011-11-05Support sizes >=2G in various config options accepting 'g' sizes.Libravatar Nick Alcock1-10/+31
The config options core.packedGitWindowSize, core.packedGitLimit, core.deltaBaseCacheLimit, core.bigFileThreshold, pack.windowMemory and pack.packSizeLimit all claim to support suffixes up to and including 'g'. This implies that they should accept sizes >=2G on 64-bit systems: certainly, specifying a size of 3g should not silently be translated to zero or transformed into a large negative value due to integer overflow. However, due to use of git_config_int() rather than git_config_ulong(), that is exactly what happens: % git config core.bigFileThreshold 2g % git gc --aggressive # with extra debugging code to print out # core.bigfilethreshold after parsing bigfilethreshold: -2147483648 [...] This is probably irrelevant for core.deltaBaseCacheLimit, but is problematic for the other values. (It is particularly problematic for core.packedGitLimit, which can't even be set to its default value in the config file due to this bug.) This fixes things for 32-bit platforms as well. They get the usual bad config error if an overlarge value is specified, e.g.: fatal: bad config value for 'core.bigfilethreshold' in /home/nix/.gitconfig This is detected in all cases, even if the 32-bit platform has no size larger than 'long'. For signed integral configuration values, we also detect the case where the value is too large for the signed type but not the unsigned type.

2011-10-06attr: read core.attributesfile from git_default_core_configLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+3
This code calls git_config from a helper function to parse the config entry it is interested in. Calling git_config in this way may cause a problem if the helper function can be called after a previous call to git_config by another function since the second call to git_config may reset some variable to the value in the config file which was previously overridden. The above is not a problem in this case since the function passed to git_config only parses one config entry and the variable it sets is not assigned outside of the parsing function. But a programmer who desires all of the standard config options to be parsed may be tempted to modify git_attr_config() so that it falls back to git_default_config() and then it _would_ be vulnerable to the above described behavior. So, move the call to git_config up into the top-level cmd_* function and move the responsibility for parsing core.attributesfile into the main config file parser.

2011-06-22config: die on error in command-line configLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
The error handling for git_config is somewhat confusing. We collect errors from running git_config_from_file on the various config files and carefully pass them back up. But the two odd things are: 1. We actually die on most errors in git_config_from_file. In fact, the only error we actually pass back up is if fopen() fails on the file. 2. Most callers of git_config do not check the error return at all, but will continue if git_config reports an error. When the code for "git -c core.foo=bar" was added, it dutifully passed errors up the call stack, only for them to be eventually ignored. This makes it inconsistent with the file-parsing code, which will die when it sees malformed config. And it's somewhat unsafe, because it means an error in parsing a typo like: git -c clean.requireforce=ture clean will continue the command, ignoring the config the user tried to give.

2011-06-16config.c: Make git_config() work correctly when called recursivelyLibravatar Ramsay Jones1-30/+50
On Cygwin, this fixes a test failure in t3301-notes.sh (test 98, "git notes copy --for-rewrite (disabled)"). The test failure is caused by a recursive call to git_config() which has the effect of skipping to the end-of-file while processing the "notes.rewriteref" config variable. Thus, any config variables that appear after "notes.rewriteref" are simply ignored by git_config(). Also, we note that the original FILE handle is leaked as a result of the recursive call. The recursive call to git_config() is due to the "schizophrenic stat" functions on cygwin, where one of two different implementations of the l/stat functions is selected lazily, depending on some config variables. In this case, the init_copy_notes_for_rewrite() function calls git_config() with the notes_rewrite_config() callback function. This callback, while processing the "notes.rewriteref" variable, in turn calls string_list_add_refs_by_glob() to process the associated ref value. This eventually leads to a call to the get_ref_dir() function, which in turn calls stat(). On cygwin, the stat() macro leads to an indirect call to cygwin_stat_stub() which, via init_stat(), then calls git_config() in order to determine which l/stat implementation to bind to. In order to solve this problem, we modify git_config() so that the global state variables used by the config reading code is packaged up and managed on a local state stack.

Commit 8f323c00 (drop support for GIT_CONFIG_NOGLOBAL, 15-03-2011) removed the git_config_global() function, among other things, since it is no longer required. Unfortunately, this function has since been unintentionally restored by a faulty conflict resolution. Remove it.

2011-05-24config: always parse GIT_CONFIG_PARAMETERS during git_configLibravatar Jeff King1-40/+11
Previously we parsed GIT_CONFIG_PARAMETERS lazily into a linked list, and then checked that list during future invocations of git_config. However, that ignores the fact that the environment variable could change during our run (e.g., because we parse more "-c" as part of an alias). Instead, let's just re-parse the environment variable each time. It's generally not very big, and it's no more work than parsing the config files, anyway. As a bonus, we can ditch all of the linked list storage code entirely, making the code much simpler. The test unfortunately still does not pass because of an unrelated bug in handle_options.

2011-05-24git_config: don't peek at global config_parametersLibravatar Jeff King1-4/+11
The config_parameters list in config.c is an implementation detail of git_config_from_parameters; instead, that function should tell us whether it found anything. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

Nobody outside of git_config_from_parameters should need to use the GIT_CONFIG_PARAMETERS parsing functions, so let's make them private. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2011-05-17config: define and document exit codesLibravatar Michael J Gruber1-10/+10
The return codes of git_config_set() and friends are magic numbers right in the source. #define them in cache.h where the functions are declared, and use the constants in the source. Also, mention the resulting exit codes of "git config" in its man page (and complete the list).

2011-05-09convert: rename the "eol" global variable to "core_eol"Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-6/+6
Yes, it is clear that "eol" wants to mean some sort of end-of-line thing, but as the name of a global variable, it is way too short to describe what kind of end-of-line thing it wants to represent. Besides, there are many codepaths that want to use their own local "char *eol" variable to point at the end of the current line they are processing. This global variable holds what we read from core.eol configuration variable. Name it as such. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
