* maint-1.6.0: Fix buffer overflow in config parser
2009-04-17Fix buffer overflow in config parserLibravatar Thomas Jarosch1-1/+1
When interpreting a config value, the config parser reads in 1+ space character(s) and puts -one- space character in the buffer as soon as the first non-space character is encountered (if not inside quotes). Unfortunately the buffer size check lacks the extra space character which gets inserted at the next non-space character, resulting in a crash with a specially crafted config entry. The unit test now uses Java to compile a platform independent .NET framework to output the test string in C# :o) Read: Thanks to Johannes Sixt for the correct printf call which replaces the perl invocation.

2009-03-17New config push.default to decide default behavior for pushLibravatar Finn Arne Gangstad1-0/+28
When "git push" is not told what refspecs to push, it pushes all matching branches to the current remote. For some workflows this default is not useful, and surprises new users. Some have even found that this default behaviour is too easy to trigger by accident with unwanted consequences. Introduce a new configuration variable "push.default" that decides what action git push should take if no refspecs are given or implied by the command line arguments or the current remote configuration. Possible values are: 'nothing' : Push nothing; 'matching' : Current default behaviour, push all branches that already exist in the current remote; 'tracking' : Push the current branch to whatever it is tracking; 'current' : Push the current branch to a branch of the same name, i.e. HEAD.

2009-02-21git_config(): not having a per-repo config file is not an errorLibravatar Felipe Contreras1-4/+13
Currently git_config() returns an error if there is no repo config file available (cwd is not a git repo); it will correctly parse the system and global config files, but still return an error. It doesn't affect anything else since almost nobody is checking for the return code (with the exception of 'git remote update'). A reorganization in 'git config' would benefit from being able to properly detect errors in git_config() without the noise generated when cwd is not a git repo.

2009-02-08Add mailmap.file as configurational option for mailmap locationLibravatar Marius Storm-Olsen1-0/+12
This allows us to augment the repo mailmap file, and to use mailmap files elsewhere than the repository root. Meaning that the entries in mailmap.file will override the entries in "./.mailmap", should they match.

2008-12-21Introduce commit notesLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+5
Commit notes are blobs which are shown together with the commit message. These blobs are taken from the notes ref, which you can configure by the config variable core.notesRef, which in turn can be overridden by the environment variable GIT_NOTES_REF. The notes ref is a branch which contains "files" whose names are the names of the corresponding commits (i.e. the SHA-1). The rationale for putting this information into a ref is this: we want to be able to fetch and possibly union-merge the notes, maybe even look at the date when a note was introduced, and we want to store them efficiently together with the other objects.

2008-11-14Add cache preload facilityLibravatar Linus Torvalds1-0/+5
This can do the lstat() storm in parallel, giving potentially much improved performance for cold-cache cases or things like NFS that have weak metadata caching. Just use "read_cache_preload()" instead of "read_cache()" to force an optimistic preload of the index stat data. The function takes a pathspec as its argument, allowing us to preload only the relevant portion of the index.

Many call sites use strbuf_init(&foo, 0) to initialize local strbuf variable "foo" which has not been accessed since its declaration. These can be replaced with a static initialization using the STRBUF_INIT macro which is just as readable, saves a function call, and takes up fewer lines.

2008-07-28Make use of stat.ctime configurableLibravatar Alex Riesen1-0/+4
A new configuration variable 'core.trustctime' is introduced to allow ignoring st_ctime information when checking if paths in the working tree has changed, because there are situations where it produces too much false positives. Like when file system crawlers keep changing it when scanning and using the ctime for marking scanned files. The default is to notice ctime changes.

2008-07-13Move code interpreting path relative to exec-dir to new function system_path()Libravatar Steffen Prohaska1-9/+2
Expanding system paths relative to git_exec_path can be used for creating an installation that can be moved to a different directory without re-compiling. We use this approach for template_dir and the system wide gitconfig. The Windows installer (msysgit) is an example for such a setup. This commit moves common code to a new function system_path(). System paths that are to be interpreted relative to git_exec_path are passed to system_path() and the return value is used instead of the original path. system_path() prefixes a relative path with git_exec_path and leaves absolute paths unmodified. For example, we now write template_dir = system_path(DEFAULT_GIT_TEMPLATE_DIR); [j6t: moved from path.c to exec_cmd.c] Signed-off-by: Steffen Prohaska <prohaska@zib.de> Signed-off-by: Johannes Sixt <johannes.sixt@telecom.at> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2008-07-01Only use GIT_CONFIG in "git config", not other programsLibravatar Daniel Barkalow1-27/+20
For everything other than using "git config" to read or write a git-style config file that isn't the current repo's config file, GIT_CONFIG was actively detrimental. Rather than argue over which programs are important enough to have work anyway, just fix all of them at the root. Also removes GIT_LOCAL_CONFIG, which would only be useful for programs that do want to use global git-specific config, but not the repo's own git-specific config, and want to use some other, presumably git-specific config. Despite being documented, I can't find any sign that it was ever used. Signed-off-by: Daniel Barkalow <barkalow@iabervon.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2008-06-18Add config option to enable 'fsync()' of object filesLibravatar Linus Torvalds1-0/+5
As explained in the documentation[*] this is totally useless on filesystems that do ordered/journalled data writes, but it can be a useful safety feature on filesystems like HFS+ that only journal the metadata, not the actual file contents. It defaults to off, although we could presumably in theory some day auto-enable it on a per-filesystem basis. [*] Yes, I updated the docs for the thing.

It makes the code a bit easier to read, and in theory a bit faster too (no need to compare all the different "core.*" strings against non-core config options). The config system really should get something of a complete overhaul, but in the absense of that, this at least improves on it a tiny bit.

If an element of the configuration key name other than the first or last contains a backslash, it is not escaped on output, but is treated as an escape sequence on input.

2008-02-19branch: optionally setup branch.*.merge from upstream local branchesLibravatar Jay Soffian1-0/+8
"git branch" and "git checkout -b" now honor --track option even when the upstream branch is local. Previously --track was silently ignored when forking from a local branch. Also the command did not error out when --track was explicitly asked for but the forked point specified was not an existing branch (i.e. when there is no way to set up the tracking configuration), but now it correctly does. The configuration setting branch.autosetupmerge can now be set to "always", which is equivalent to using --track from the command line. Setting branch.autosetupmerge to "true" will retain the former behavior of only setting up branch.*.merge for remote upstream branches. Includes test cases for the new functionality.
