"git add --chmod=+x <pathspec>" added recently only toggled the
executable bit for paths that are either new or modified. This has
been corrected to flip the executable bit for all paths that match
the given pathspec.
* tg/add-chmod+x-fix:
t3700-add: do not check working tree file mode without POSIXPERM
t3700-add: create subdirectory gently
add: modify already added files when --chmod is given
read-cache: introduce chmod_index_entry
update-index: add test for chmod flags
|
|
When the chmod option was added to git add, it was hooked up to the diff
machinery, meaning that it only works when the version in the index
differs from the version on disk.
As the option was supposed to mirror the chmod option in update-index,
which always changes the mode in the index, regardless of the status of
the file, make sure the option behaves the same way in git add.

As there are chmod options for both add and update-index, introduce a

"git merge" with renormalization did not work well with
merge-recursive, due to "safer crlf" conversion kicking in when it
shouldn't.
* jc/renormalize-merge-kill-safer-crlf:
merge: avoid "safer crlf" during recording of merge results
convert: unify the "auto" handling of CRLF
|
|
When merge_recursive() decides what the correct blob object merge
result for a path should be, it uses update_file_flags() helper
function to write it out to a working tree file and then calls
add_cacheinfo(). The add_cacheinfo() function in turn calls
make_cache_entry() to create a new cache entry to replace the
higher-stage entries for the path that represents the conflict.
The make_cache_entry() function calls refresh_cache_entry() to fill
in the cached stat information. To mark a cache entry as
up-to-date, the data is re-read from the file in the working tree,
and goes through convert_to_git() conversion to be compared with the
blob object name the new cache entry records.
It is important to note that this happens while the higher-stage
entries, which are going to be replaced with the new entry, are
still in the index. Unfortunately, the convert_to_git() conversion
has a misguided "safer crlf" mechanism baked in, and looks at the
existing cache entry for the path to decide how to convert the
contents in the working tree file. If our side (i.e. stage#2)
records a text blob with CRLF in it, even when the system is
configured to record LF in blobs and convert them to CRLF upon
checkout (and back to LF upon checkin), the "safer crlf" mechanism
stops us doing so.
This especially poses a problem during a renormalizing merge, where
the merge result for the path is computed by first "normalizing" the
blobs involved in the merge by using convert_to_working_tree()
followed by convert_to_git() with "safer crlf" disabled. The merge
result that is computed correctly and fed to add_cacheinfo() via
update_file_flags() does _not_ match what refresh_cache_entry() sees
by converting the working tree file via convert_to_git().
We can work this around by not refreshing the new cache entry in
make_cache_entry() called by add_cacheinfo(). After add_cacheinfo()
adds the new entry, we can call refresh_cache_entry() on that,
knowing that addition of this new cache entry would have removed the
stale cache entries that had CRLF in stage #2 that were carried over
before the renormalizing merge started and will not interfere with
the correct recording of the result.
The test update was taken from a series by Torsten Bögershausen
that attempted to fix this with a different approach.

The executable bit will not be detected (and therefore will not be
set) for paths in a repository with `core.filemode` set to false,
though the users may still wish to add files as executable for
compatibility with other users who _do_ have `core.filemode`
functionality. For example, Windows users adding shell scripts may
wish to add them as executable for compatibility with users on
non-Windows.
Although this can be done with a plumbing command
(`git update-index --add --chmod=+x foo`), teaching the `git-add`
command allows users to set a file executable with a command that
they're already familiar with.

When we know that mtime on directory as given by the environment
is usable for the purpose of untracked cache, we may want the
untracked cache to be always used without any mtime test or
kernel name check being performed.
Also when we know that mtime is not usable for the purpose of
untracked cache, for example because the repo is shared over a
network file system, we may want the untracked-cache to be
automatically removed from the index.
Allow the user to express such preference by setting the
'core.untrackedCache' configuration variable, which can take
'keep', 'false', or 'true' and default to 'keep'.
When read_index_from() is called, it now adds or removes the
untracked cache in the index to respect the value of this
variable. So it does nothing if the value is `keep` or if the
variable is unset; it adds the untracked cache if the value is
`true`; and it removes the cache if the value is `false`.
`git update-index --[no-|force-]untracked-cache` still adds the
untracked cache to, or removes it, from the index, but this
shows a warning if it goes against the value of
core.untrackedCache, because the next time the index is read
the untracked cache will be added or removed if the
configuration is set to do so.
Also `--untracked-cache` used to check that the underlying
operating system and file system change `st_mtime` field of a
directory if files are added or deleted in that directory. But
because those tests take a long time, `--untracked-cache` no
longer performs them. Instead, there is now
`--test-untracked-cache` to perform the tests. This change
makes `--untracked-cache` the same as `--force-untracked-cache`.
This last change is backward incompatible and should be
mentioned in the release notes.

Paths that have been told the index about with "add -N" are not

already are in a harmful way.

The name-hash subsystem that is used to cope with case insensitive
filesystems keeps track of directories and their on-filesystem
cases for all the paths in the index by holding a pointer to a
randomly chosen cache entry that is inside the directory (for its
ce->ce_name component). This pointer was not updated even when the
cache entry was removed from the index, leading to use after free.
This was fixed by recording the path for each directory instead of
borrowing cache entries and restructuring the API somewhat.

Stop reusing cache_entry in dir_entry; doing so causes a
use-after-free bug.
During merges, we free entries that we no longer need in the
destination index. But those entries might have also been stored in
the dir_entry cache, and when a later call to add_to_index found them,
they would be used after being freed.
To prevent this, change dir_entry to store a copy of the name instead
of a pointer to a cache_entry. This entails some refactoring of code
that expects the cache_entry.

Before this change, t7063.17 fails. The actual action though happens at
t7063.16 where the entry "two" is added back to index after being
removed in the .13. Here we expect a directory invalidate at .16 and
none at .17 where untracked cache is refreshed. But things do not go as
expected when GIT_TEST_SPLIT_INDEX is set.
The different behavior that happens at .16 when split index is used: the
entry "two", when deleted at .13, is simply marked "deleted". When .16
executes, the entry resurfaces from the version in base index. This
happens in merge_base_index() where add_index_entry() is called to add
"two" back from the base index.
This is where the bug comes from. The add_index_entry() is called with
ADD_CACHE_KEEP_CACHE_TREE flag because this version of "two" is not new,
it does not break either cache-tree or untracked cache. The code should
check this flag and not invalidate untracked cache. This causes a second
invalidation violates test expectation. The fix is obvious.

Once upon a time, git's in-memory representation of a cache
entry actually pointed to the mmap'd on-disk data. So in
520fc24 (Allow writing to the private index file mapping.,
2005-04-26), we specified PROT_WRITE so that we could tweak
the entries while we run (in our own MAP_PRIVATE copy-on-write
version, of course).
Later, 7a51ed6 (Make on-disk index representation separate
from in-core one, 2008-01-14) stopped doing this; we copy
the data into our in-core representation, and then drop the
mmap immediately. We can therefore drop the PROT_WRITE flag.
It's probably not hurting anything as it is, but it's
potentially confusing.
Note that we could also mark the mapping as "const" to
verify that we never write to it. However, we don't
typically do that for our other maps, as it then requires
casting to munmap() it.

`ce` is allocated in make_cache_entry and should be freed if it is not
used any more. refresh_cache_entry as a wrapper around refresh_cache_ent
will either return
- the `ce` given as the parameter, when it was up-to-date;
- a new updated cache entry which is allocated to new memory; or
- a NULL when refreshing failed.
In the latter two cases, the original cache-entry `ce` is not used
and needs to be freed. The rule can be expressed as "if the return
value from refresh is different from the original ce, ce is no
longer used."

The split index extension uses ewah bitmaps to mark index entries as
deleted, instead of removing them from the index directly. This can
result in an on-disk index, in which entries of stage #0 and higher
stages appear, which are removed later when the index bases are merged.
15999d0 read_index_from(): catch out of order entries when reading an
index file introduces a check which checks if the entries are in order
after each index entry is read in do_read_index. This check may however
fail when a split index is read.
Fix this by moving checking the index after we know there is no split
index or after the split index bases are successfully merged instead.

Ideally we should implement untracked_cache_remove_from_index() and
untracked_cache_add_to_index() so that they update untracked cache
right away instead of invalidating it and wait for read_directory()
next time to deal with it. But that may need some more work in
unpack-trees.c. So stay simple as the first step.
The new call in add_index_entry_with_check() may look strange because
new calls usually stay close to cache_tree_invalidate_path(). We do it
a bit later than c_t_i_p() in this function because if it's about
replacing the entry with the same name, we don't care (but cache-tree
does).

The point of disallowing ".git" in the index is that we
would never want to accidentally overwrite files in the
repository directory. But this means we need to respect the
filesystem's idea of when two paths are equal. The prior
commit added a helper to make such a comparison for NTFS
and FAT32; let's use it in verify_path().
We make this check optional for two reasons:
1. It restricts the set of allowable filenames, which is
unnecessary for people who are not on NTFS nor FAT32.
In practice this probably doesn't matter, though, as
the restricted names are rather obscure and almost
certainly would never come up in practice.
2. It has a minor performance penalty for every path we
insert into the index.
This patch ties the check to the core.protectNTFS config
option. Though this is expected to be most useful on Windows,
we allow it to be set everywhere, as NTFS may be mounted on
other platforms. The variable does default to on for Windows,
though.

We do not allow ".git" to enter into the index as a path
component, because checking out the result to the working
tree may causes confusion for subsequent git commands.
However, on case-insensitive file systems, ".Git" or ".GIT"
is the same. We should catch and prevent those, too.
Note that technically we could allow this for repos on
case-sensitive filesystems. But there's not much point. It's
unlikely that anybody cares, and it creates a repository
that is unexpectedly non-portable to other systems.

commit_locked_index(), when writing to an alternate index file,

For now, we still make sure to allocate at least PATH_MAX characters
for the strbuf because resolve_symlink() doesn't know how to expand
the space for its return value. (That will be fixed in a moment.)
Another alternative would be to just use a strbuf as scratch space in
lock_file() but then store a pointer to the naked string in struct
lock_file. But lock_file objects are often reused. By reusing the
same strbuf, we can avoid having to reallocate the string most times
when a lock_file object is reused.

Because remove_lock_file() can be called any time by the signal
handler, it is important that any lock_file objects that are in the
lock_file_list are always in a valid state. And since lock_file
objects are often reused (but are never removed from lock_file_list),
that means we have to be careful whenever mutating a lock_file object
to always keep it in a well-defined state.
This was formerly not the case, because part of the state was encoded
by setting lk->filename to the empty string vs. a valid filename. It
is wrong to assume that this string can be updated atomically; for
example, even
strcpy(lk->filename, value)
is unsafe. But the old code was even more reckless; for example,
strcpy(lk->filename, path);
if (!(flags & LOCK_NODEREF))
resolve_symlink(lk->filename, max_path_len);
strcat(lk->filename, ".lock");
During the call to resolve_symlink(), lk->filename contained the name
of the file that was being locked, not the name of the lockfile. If a
signal were raised during that interval, then the signal handler would
have deleted the valuable file!
We could probably continue to use the filename field to encode the
state by being careful to write characters 1..N-1 of the filename
first, and then overwrite the NUL at filename[0] with the first
character of the filename, but that would be awkward and error-prone.
So, instead of using the filename field to determine whether the
lock_file object is active, add a new field "lock_file::active" for
this purpose. Be careful to set this field only when filename really
contains the name of a file that should be deleted on cleanup.
