2019-01-03completion: treat results of git ls-tree as file pathsLibravatar Chayoung You1-19/+12
Let's say there are files named 'foo bar.txt', and 'abc def/test.txt' in repository. When following commands trigger a completion: git show HEAD:fo<Tab> git show HEAD:ab<Tab> The completion results in bash/zsh: git show HEAD:foo bar.txt git show HEAD:abc def/ Where the both of them have an unescaped space in paths, so they'll be misread by git. All entries of git ls-tree either a filename or a directory, so __gitcomp_file() is proper rather than __gitcomp_nl(). Note the commit f12785a3, which handles quoted paths properly. Like this case, we should dequote $cur_ for ?*:* case. For example, let's say there is untracked directory 'abc deg', then trigger a completion: git show HEAD:abc\ de<Tab> git show HEAD:'abc de<Tab> git show HEAD:"abc de<Tab> should uniquely complete 'abc def', but bash completes 'abc def' and 'abc deg' instead. In zsh, triggering a completion: git show HEAD:abc\ def/<Tab> should complete 'test.txt', but nothing comes. The both problems will be resolved by dequoting paths. __git_complete_revlist_file() passes arguments to __gitcomp_nl() where the first one is a list something like: abc def/Z foo bar.txt Z where Z is the mark of the EOL. - The trailing space of blob in __git ls-tree | sed. It makes the completion results become: git show HEAD:foo\ bar.txt\ <CURSOR> So git will try to find a file named 'foo bar.txt ' instead. - The trailing slash of tree in __git ls-tree | sed. It makes the completion results on zsh become: git show HEAD:abc\ def/ <CURSOR> So that the last space on command like should be removed on zsh to complete filenames under 'abc def/'.

2019-01-03zsh: complete unquoted paths with spaces correctlyLibravatar Chayoung You2-4/+4
The following is the description of -Q flag of zsh compadd [1]: This flag instructs the completion code not to quote any metacharacters in the words when inserting them into the command line. Let's say there is a file named 'foo bar.txt' in repository, but it's not yet added to the repository. Then the following command triggers a completion: git add fo<Tab> git add 'fo<Tab> git add "fo<Tab> The completion results in bash: git add foo\ bar.txt git add 'foo bar.txt' git add "foo bar.txt" While them in zsh: git add foo bar.txt git add 'foo bar.txt' git add "foo bar.txt" The first one, where the pathname is not enclosed in quotes, should escape the space with a backslash, just like bash completion does. Otherwise, this leads git to think there are two files; foo, and bar.txt. The main cause of this behavior is __gitcomp_file_direct(). The both implementions of bash and zsh are called with an argument 'foo bar.txt', but only bash adds a backslash before a space on command line.

2018-11-06completion: use __gitcomp_builtin for format-patchLibravatar Duy Nguyen1-10/+6
This helps format-patch gain completion for a couple new options, notably --range-diff. Since send-email completion relies on $__git_format_patch_options which is now reduced, we need to do something not to regress send-email completion. The workaround here is implement --git-completion-helper in send-email.perl just as a bridge to "format-patch --git-completion-helper". This is enough to use __gitcomp_builtin on send-email (to take advantage of caching). In the end, send-email.perl can probably reuse the same info it passes to GetOptions() to generate full --git-completion-helper output so that we don't need to keep track of its options in git-completion.bash anymore.

2018-10-22completion: fix __gitcomp_builtin no longer consider extra optionsLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-1/+1
__gitcomp_builtin() has the main completion list provided by git xxx --git-completion-helper but the caller can also add extra options that is not provided by --git-completion-helper. The only call site that does this is "git difftool" completion. This support is broken by b221b5ab9b (completion: collapse extra --no-.. options - 2018-06-06), which adds a special value "--" to mark that the rest of the options can be hidden by default. The commit forgets the fact that extra options are appended after "$(git xxx --git-completion-helper)", i.e. after this "--", and will be incorrectly hidden as well.

2018-06-12completion: correct zsh detection when run from git-completion.zshLibravatar SZEDER Gábor2-2/+5
v2.18.0-rc0~90^2 (completion: reduce overhead of clearing cached --options, 2018-04-18) worked around a bug in bash's "set" builtin on MacOS by using compgen instead. It was careful to avoid breaking zsh by guarding this workaround with if [[ -n ${ZSH_VERSION-}} ]] Alas, this interacts poorly with git-completion.zsh's bash emulation: ZSH_VERSION='' . "$script" Correct it by instead using a new GIT_SOURCING_ZSH_COMPLETION shell variable to detect whether git-completion.bash is being sourced from git-completion.zsh. This way, the zsh variant is used both when run from zsh directly and when run via git-completion.zsh. Reproduction recipe: 1. cd git/contrib/completion && cp git-completion.zsh _git 2. Put the following in a new ~/.zshrc file: autoload -U compinit; compinit autoload -U bashcompinit; bashcompinit fpath=(~/src/git/contrib/completion $fpath) 3. Open zsh and "git <TAB>".

2018-06-11completion: collapse extra --no-.. optionsLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-0/+23
The commands that make use of --git-completion-helper feature could now produce a lot of --no-xxx options that a command can take. This in many case could nearly double the amount of completable options, using more screen estate and also harder to search for the wanted option. This patch attempts to mitigate that by collapsing extra --no- options, the ones that are added by --git-completion-helper and not in original struct option arrays. The "--no-..." option will be displayed in this case to hint about more options, e.g. > ~/w/git $ git clone -- --bare --origin= --branch= --progress --checkout --quiet --config= --recurse-submodules --depth= --reference= --dissociate --reference-if-able= --filter= --separate-git-dir= --hardlinks --shallow-exclude= --ipv4 --shallow-since= --ipv6 --shallow-submodules --jobs= --shared --local --single-branch --mirror --tags --no-... --template= --no-checkout --upload-pack= --no-hardlinks --verbose --no-tags and when you complete it with --no-<tab>, all negative options will be presented: > ~/w/git $ git clone --no- --no-bare --no-quiet --no-branch --no-recurse-submodules --no-checkout --no-reference --no-config --no-reference-if-able --no-depth --no-separate-git-dir --no-dissociate --no-shallow-exclude --no-filter --no-shallow-since --no-hardlinks --no-shallow-submodules --no-ipv4 --no-shared --no-ipv6 --no-single-branch --no-jobs --no-tags --no-local --no-template --no-mirror --no-upload-pack --no-origin --no-verbose --no-progress Corner case: to make sure that people will never accidentally complete the fake option "--no-..." there must be one real --no- in the first complete listing even if it's not from the original struct option.

Once you have chosen you first level, e.g. color: git config color.<tab> will show you all color.* This is not a new idea. branch.* and remote.* completion already does this for second and third levels.

By providing aliases via --list-cmds=, we could simplify command collection code in the script. We only issue one git command. Before this patch that is "git config", after it's "git --list-cmds=". In "git help" completion case we actually reduce one "git" process (for getting guides) but that call was added in this series so it does not really count. A couple of bash functions are removed because they are not needed anymore. __git_compute_all_commands() and $__git_all_commands stay because they are still needed for completing pager.* config and without "alias" group, the result is still cacheable. There is a slight (good) change in _git_help() with this patch: before "git help <tab>" shows external commands (as in _not_ part of git) as well as part of $__git_all_commands.

2018-05-21completion: let git provide the completable command listLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-91/+28
Instead of maintaining a separate list of command classification, which often could go out of date, let's centralize the information back in git. While the function in git-completion.bash implies "list porcelain commands", that's not exactly what it does. It gets all commands (aka --list-cmds=main,others) then exclude certain non-porcelain ones. We could almost recreate this list two lists list-mainporcelain and others. The non-porcelain-but-included-anyway is added by the third category list-complete. Note that the current completion script incorrectly classifies filter-branch as porcelain and t9902 tests this behavior. We keep it this way in t9902 because this test does not really care which particular command is porcelain or plumbing, they're just names.

2018-05-21completion: implement and use --list-cmds=main,othersLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-1/+1
This is part of the effort to break down and provide commands by category in machine-readable form. This could be helpful later on when completion script switches to use --list-cmds for selecting completable commands. It would be much easier for the user to choose to complete _all_ commands instead of the default selection by passing different values to --list-cmds in git-completino.bash. While at there, replace "git help -a" in git-completion.bash with --list-cmds since it's better suited for this task.

2018-05-21git.c: convert --list-* to --list-cmds=*Libravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-1/+1
Even if these are hidden options, let's make them a bit more generic since we're introducing more listing types shortly. The code is structured to allow combining multiple listing types together because we will soon add more types the 'builtins'. 'parseopt' remains separate because it has separate (SPC) to match git-completion.bash needs and will not combine with others.

2018-05-21completion: don't return with error from __gitcomp_file_direct()Libravatar SZEDER Gábor1-2/+4
In __gitcomp_file_direct() we tell Bash that it should handle our possible completion words as filenames with the following piece of cleverness: # use a hack to enable file mode in bash < 4 compopt -o filenames +o nospace 2>/dev/null || compgen -f /non-existing-dir/ > /dev/null Unfortunately, this makes this function always return with error when it is not invoked in real completion, but e.g. in tests of 't9902-completion.sh': - First the 'compopt' line errors out - either because in Bash v3.x there is no such command, - or because in Bash v4.x it complains about "not currently executing completion function", - then 'compgen' just silently returns with error because of the non-existing directory. Since __gitcomp_file_direct() is now the last command executed in __git_complete_index_file(), that function returns with error as well, which prevents it from being invoked in tests directly as is, and would require extra steps in test to hide its error code. So let's make sure that __gitcomp_file_direct() doesn't return with error, because in the tests coming in the following patch we do want to exercise __git_complete_index_file() directly, __gitcomp_file() contains the same construct, and thus it, too, always returns with error. Update that function accordingly as well. While at it, also remove the space from between the redirection operator and the filename in both functions.
