Documentation update. * pt/enter-repo-comment-fix: enter_repo(): fix docs to match code
2015-03-31enter_repo(): fix docs to match codeLibravatar Paul Tan1-8/+3
In b3256eb (standardize and improve lookup rules for external local repos), enter_repo() was modified to use a different precedence ordering of suffixes for DWIM of the repository path, and to ensure that the repository path is actually valid instead of just testing for existence. However, the documentation was not modified to reflect these changes. Fix the documentation to match the code. Documentation contributed by Jeff King.

2014-12-17path: add is_ntfs_dotgit() helperLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+33
We do not allow paths with a ".git" component to be added to the index, as that would mean repository contents could overwrite our repository files. However, asking "is this path the same as .git" is not as simple as strcmp() on some filesystems. On NTFS (and FAT32), there exist so-called "short names" for backwards-compatibility: 8.3 compliant names that refer to the same files as their long names. As ".git" is not an 8.3 compliant name, a short name is generated automatically, typically "git~1". Depending on the Windows version, any combination of trailing spaces and periods are ignored, too, so that both "git~1." and ".git." still refer to the Git directory. The reason is that 8.3 stores file names shorter than 8 characters with trailing spaces. So literally, it does not matter for the short name whether it is padded with spaces or whether it is shorter than 8 characters, it is considered to be the exact same. The period is the separator between file name and file extension, and again, an empty extension consists just of spaces in 8.3 format. So technically, we would need only take care of the equivalent of this regex: (\.git {0,4}|git~1 {0,3})\. {0,3} However, there are indications that at least some Windows versions might be more lenient and accept arbitrary combinations of trailing spaces and periods and strip them out. So we're playing it real safe here. Besides, there can be little doubt about the intention behind using file names matching even the more lenient pattern specified above, therefore we should be fine with disallowing such patterns. Extra care is taken to catch names such as '.\\.git\\booh' because the backslash is marked as a directory separator only on Windows, and we want to use this new helper function also in fsck on other platforms. A big thank you goes to Ed Thomson and an unnamed Microsoft engineer for the detailed analysis performed to come up with the corresponding fixes for libgit2. This commit adds a function to detect whether a given file name can refer to the Git directory by mistake.

Use xmemdupz() to allocate the memory, copy the data and make sure to NUL-terminate the result, all in one step. The resulting code is shorter, doesn't contain the constants 1 and '\0', and avoids duplicating function parameters. For blame, the last copied byte (o->file.ptr[o->file.size]) is always set to NUL by fake_working_tree_commit() or read_sha1_file(), so no information is lost by the conversion to using xmemdupz().

2013-10-14Use simpler relative_path when set_git_dirLibravatar Jiang Xin1-0/+45
Using a relative_path as git_dir first appears in v1.5.6-1-g044bbbc. It will make git_dir shorter only if git_dir is inside work_tree, and this will increase performance. But my last refactor effort on relative_path function (commit v1.8.3-rc2-12-ge02ca72) changed that. Always use relative_path as git_dir may bring troubles like $gmane/234434. Because new relative_path is a combination of original relative_path from path.c and original path_relative from quote.c, so in order to restore the origin implementation, save the original relative_path as remove_leading_path, and call it in setup.c.

Commit adbc0b6b ("cygwin: Use native Win32 API for stat", 30-09-2008) added a Win32 specific implementation of the stat functions. In order to handle absolute paths, cygwin mount points and symbolic links, this implementation may fall back on the standard cygwin l/stat() functions. Also, the choice of cygwin or Win32 functions is made lazily (by the first call(s) to l/stat) based on the state of some config variables. Unfortunately, this "schizophrenic stat" implementation has been the source of many problems ever since. For example, see commits 7faee6b8, 79748439, 452993c2, 085479e7, b8a97333, 924aaf3e, 05bab3ea and 0117c2f0. In order to avoid further problems, such as the issue raised by the new reference handling API, remove the Win32 l/stat() implementation.

2013-06-26path.c: refactor relative_path(), not only strip prefixLibravatar Jiang Xin1-27/+85
Original design of relative_path() is simple, just strip the prefix (*base) from the absolute path (*abs). In most cases, we need a real relative path, such as: ../foo, ../../bar. That's why there is another reimplementation (path_relative()) in quote.c. Borrow some codes from path_relative() in quote.c to refactor relative_path() in path.c, so that it could return real relative path, and user can reuse this function without reimplementing his/her own. The function path_relative() in quote.c will be substituted, and I would use the new relative_path() function when implementing the interactive git-clean later. Different results for relative_path() before and after this refactor: abs path base path relative (original) relative (refactor) ======== ========= =================== =================== /a/b /a/b . ./ /a/b/ /a/b . ./ /a /a/b/ /a ../ / /a/b/ / ../../ /a/c /a/b/ /a/c ../c /x/y /a/b/ /x/y ../../x/y a/b/ a/b/ . ./ a/b/ a/b . ./ a a/b a ../ x/y a/b/ x/y ../../x/y a/c a/b a/c ../c (empty) (null) (empty) ./ (empty) (empty) (empty) ./ (empty) /a/b (empty) ./ (null) (null) (null) ./ (null) (empty) (null) ./ (null) /a/b (segfault) ./ You may notice that return value "." has been changed to "./". It is because: * Function quote_path_relative() in quote.c will show the relative path as "./" if abs(in) and base(prefix) are the same. * Function relative_path() is called only once (in setup.c), and it will be OK for the return value as "./" instead of ".".

2013-03-25Make core.sharedRepository work under cygwin 1.7Libravatar Torsten Bögershausen1-3/+17
When core.sharedRepository is used, set_shared_perm() in path.c needs lstat() to return the correct POSIX permissions. The default for cygwin is core.ignoreCygwinFSTricks = false, which means that the fast implementation in do_stat() is used instead of lstat(). lstat() under cygwin uses the Windows security model to implement POSIX-like permissions. The user, group or everyone bits can be set individually. do_stat() simplifes the file permission bits, and may return a wrong value. The read-only attribute of a file is used to calculate the permissions, resulting in either rw-r--r-- or r--r--r-- One effect of the simplified do_stat() is that t1301 fails. Add a function cygwin_get_st_mode_bits() which returns the POSIX permissions. When not compiling for cygwin, true_mode_bits() in path.c is used. Side note: t1301 passes under cygwin 1.5. The "user write" bit is synchronized with the "read only" attribute of a file: $ chmod 444 x $ attrib x A R C:\temp\pt\x cygwin 1.7 would show A C:\temp\pt\x Signed-off-by: Torsten Bögershausen <tboegi@web.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2012-10-29longest_ancestor_length(): require prefix list entries to be normalizedLibravatar Michael Haggerty1-15/+11
Move the responsibility for normalizing prefixes from longest_ancestor_length() to its callers. Use slightly different normalizations at the two callers: In setup_git_directory_gently_1(), use the old normalization, which ignores paths that are not usable. In the next commit we will change this caller to also resolve symlinks in the paths from GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES as part of the normalization. In "test-path-utils longest_ancestor_length", use the old normalization, but die() if any paths are unusable. Also change t0060 to only pass normalized paths to the test program (no empty entries or non-absolute paths, strip trailing slashes from the paths, and remove tests that thereby become redundant). The point of this change is to reduce the scope of the ancestor_length tests in t0060 from testing normalization+longest_prefix to testing only mostly longest_prefix. This is necessary because when setup_git_directory_gently_1() starts resolving symlinks as part of its normalization, it will not be reasonable to do the same in the test suite, because that would make the test results depend on the contents of the root directory of the filesystem on which the test is run. HOWEVER: under Windows, bash mangles arguments that look like absolute POSIX paths into DOS paths. So we have to retain the level of normalization done by normalize_path_copy() to convert the bash-mangled DOS paths (which contain backslashes) into paths that use forward slashes.

2012-09-04path.c: Use vsnpath() in the implementation of git_path()Libravatar Ramsay Jones1-12/+3
The current implementation of git_path() is essentially the same as that of vsnpath(), with two minor differences. First, git_path() currently insists that the git directory path is no longer than PATH_MAX-100 characters in length. However, vsnpath() does not attempt this arbitrary 100 character reservation for the remaining path components. Second, vsnpath() uses the "is_dir_sep()" macro, rather than comparing directly to '/', to determine if the git_dir path component ends with a path separator. In order to benefit from the above improvements, along with increased compatability with git_snpath() and git_pathdup(), we reimplement the git_path() function using vsnpath().

Also, they both discard the return value of vsnpath(), which has the effect of ignoring the side effect of calling cleanup_path() in the non-error return path. In order to ensure that the required cleanup happens, we use the pointer returned by vsnpath(), rather than the buffer passed into vsnpath(), to derive the return value from git_snpath() and git_pathdup().

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.

2012-02-02standardize and improve lookup rules for external local reposLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+5
When you specify a local repository on the command line of clone, ls-remote, upload-pack, receive-pack, or upload-archive, or in a request to git-daemon, we perform a little bit of lookup magic, doing things like looking in working trees for .git directories and appending ".git" for bare repos. For clone, this magic happens in get_repo_path. For everything else, it happens in enter_repo. In both cases, there are some ambiguous or confusing cases that aren't handled well, and there is one case that is not handled the same by both methods. This patch tries to provide (and test!) standard, sensible lookup rules for both code paths. The intended changes are: 1. When looking up "foo", we have always preferred a working tree "foo" (containing "foo/.git" over the bare "foo.git". But we did not prefer a bare "foo" over "foo.git". With this patch, we do so. 2. We would select directories that existed but didn't actually look like git repositories. With this patch, we make sure a selected directory looks like a git repo. Not only is this more sensible in general, but it will help anybody who is negatively affected by change (1) negatively (e.g., if they had "foo.git" next to its separate work tree "foo", and expect to keep finding "foo.git" when they reference "foo"). 3. The enter_repo code path would, given "foo", look for "foo.git/.git" (i.e., do the ".git" append magic even for a repo with working tree). The clone code path did not; with this patch, they now behave the same. In the unlikely case of a working tree overlaying a bare repo (i.e., a ".git" directory _inside_ a bare repo), we continue to treat it as a working tree (prefering the "inner" .git over the bare repo). This is mainly because the combination seems nonsensical, and I'd rather stick with existing behavior on the off chance that somebody is relying on it.

2011-10-04Learn to handle gitfiles in enter_repoLibravatar Phil Hord1-1/+7
The enter_repo() function is used to navigate into a .git directory. It knows how to find standard alternatives (DWIM) but it doesn't handle gitfiles created by git init --separate-git-dir. This means that git-fetch and others do not work with repositories using the separate-git-dir mechanism. Teach enter_repo() to deal with the gitfile mechanism by resolving the path to the redirected path and continuing tests on that path instead of the found file.

2011-10-04enter_repo: do not modify inputLibravatar Erik Faye-Lund1-16/+12
entr_repo(..., 0) currently modifies the input to strip away trailing slashes. This means that we some times need to copy the input to keep the original. Change it to unconditionally copy it into the used_path buffer so we can safely use the input without having to copy it. Also store a working copy in validated_path up-front before we start resolving anything.

2011-08-22read_gitfile_gently(): rename misnamed function to read_gitfile()Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
The function was not gentle at all to the callers and died without giving them a chance to deal with possible errors. Rename it to read_gitfile(), and update all the callers. As no existing caller needs a true "gently" variant, we do not bother adding one at this point. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2011-03-17Name make_*_path functions more accuratelyLibravatar Carlos Martín Nieto1-1/+1
Rename the make_*_path functions so it's clearer what they do, in particlar make clear what the differnce between make_absolute_path and make_nonrelative_path is by renaming them real_path and absolute_path respectively. make_relative_path has an understandable name and is renamed to relative_path to maintain the name convention. The function calls have been replaced 1-to-1 in their usage. Signed-off-by: Carlos Martín Nieto <cmn@elego.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2010-11-10path helpers: move git_mkstemp* to wrapper.cLibravatar Jonathan Nieder1-113/+0
git_mkstemp_mode and related functions do not require access to specialized git machinery, unlike some other functions from path.c (like set_shared_perm()). Move them to wrapper.c where the wrapper xmkstemp_mode is defined. This eliminates a dependency of wrapper.o on environment.o via path.o. With typical linkers (e.g., gcc), that dependency makes programs that use functions from wrapper.o and not environment.o or path.o larger than they need to be.

2010-02-22git_mkstemps_mode: don't set errno to EINVAL on exit.Libravatar Matthieu Moy1-1/+0
When reaching the end of git_mkstemps_mode, at least one call to open() has been done, and errno has been set accordingly. Setting errno is therefore not necessary, and actually harmfull since callers can't distinguish e.g. permanent failure from ENOENT, which can just mean that we need to create the containing directory.

2010-02-22git_mkstemp_mode, xmkstemp_mode: variants of gitmkstemps with mode argument.Libravatar Matthieu Moy1-2/+13
gitmkstemps emulates the behavior of mkstemps, which is usually used to create files in a shared directory like /tmp/, hence, it creates files with permission 0600. Add git_mkstemps_mode() that allows us to specify the desired mode, and make git_mkstemps() a wrapper that always uses 0600 to call it. Later we will use git_mkstemps_mode() when creating pack files.
