2020-02-14Merge branch 'jk/get-oid-error-message-i18n'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-24/+24
A low-level API function get_oid(), that accepts various ways to name an object, used to issue end-user facing error messages without l10n, which has been updated to be translatable. * jk/get-oid-error-message-i18n: sha1-name: mark get_oid() error messages for translation t1506: drop space after redirection operator t1400: avoid "test" string comparisons
2020-02-12Merge branch 'jk/escaped-wildcard-dwim'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+14
Disambiguation logic to tell revisions and pathspec apart has been tweaked so that backslash-escaped glob special characters do not count in the "wildcards are pathspec" rule. * jk/escaped-wildcard-dwim: verify_filename(): handle backslashes in "wildcards are pathspecs" rule
2020-01-30sha1-name: mark get_oid() error messages for translationLibravatar Jeff King1-13/+13
There are several error messages in get_oid() and its children that are clearly intended for humans, but aren't marked for translation. E.g.: $ git show :1:foo fatal: Path 'foo' is in the index, but not at stage 1. Did you mean ':0:foo'? Let's mark these for translation. While we're at it, let's switch the style to be more like our usual error messages: start with a lowercase letter and omit a period at the end of the line. This does mean that multi-line messages like the one above don't have any punctuation between the two sentences. I solved that by adding a "hint" marker like we'd see from advise(). So the result is: $ git show :1:foo fatal: path 'foo' is in the index, but not at stage 1 hint: Did you mean ':0:foo'? A few tests had to be switched to test_i18ngrep and test_i18ncmp. Since we were touching them anyway, I also simplified the ones using i18ngrep a bit for readability. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2020-01-27verify_filename(): handle backslashes in "wildcards are pathspecs" ruleLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+14
Commit 28fcc0b71a (pathspec: avoid the need of "--" when wildcard is used, 2015-05-02) allowed: git rev-parse '*.c' without the double-dash. But the rule it uses to check for wildcards actually looks for any glob special. This is overly liberal, as it means that a pattern that doesn't actually do any wildcard matching, like "a\b", will be considered a pathspec. If you do have such a file on disk, that's presumably what you wanted. But if you don't, the results are confusing: rather than say "there's no such path a\b", we'll quietly accept it as a pathspec which very likely matches nothing (or at least not what you intended). Likewise, looking for path "a\*b" doesn't expand the search at all; it would only find a single entry, "a*b". This commit switches the rule to trigger only when glob metacharacters would expand the search, meaning both of those cases will now report an error (you can still disambiguate using "--", of course; we're just tightening the DWIM heuristic). Note that we didn't test the original feature in 28fcc0b71a at all. So this patch not only tests for these corner cases, but also adds a regression test for the existing behavior.

2019-11-27test: use test_must_be_empty F instead of test -z $(cat F)Libravatar René Scharfe1-4/+4
Use test_must_be_empty instead of reading the file and comparing its contents to an empty string. That's more efficient, as the function only needs built-in meta-data only check in the usual case, and provides nicer debug output otherwise.

The object name parser for "Nth parent" syntax has been made more robust against integer overflows. * rs/nth-parent-parse: sha1-name: check for overflow of N in "foo^N" and "foo~N" rev-parse: demonstrate overflow of N for "foo^N" and "foo~N"
2019-09-16sha1-name: check for overflow of N in "foo^N" and "foo~N"Libravatar René Scharfe1-2/+2
Reject values that don't fit into an int, as get_parent() and get_nth_ancestor() cannot handle them. That's better than potentially returning a random object. If this restriction turns out to be too tight then we can switch to a wider data type, but we'd still have to check for overflow.

2019-09-16rev-parse: demonstrate overflow of N for "foo^N" and "foo~N"Libravatar René Scharfe1-0/+8
If the number gets too high for an int, weird things may happen, as signed overflows are undefined. Add a test to show this; rev-parse "sucessfully" interprets 100000000000000000000000000000000 to be the same as 0, at least on x64 with GCC 9.2.1 and Clang 8.0.1, which is obviously bogus.

In many test scripts, there are bespoke definitions of the single quote that are some variation of this: SQ="'" Define a common $SQ variable in test-lib.sh and replace all usages of these bespoke variables with the common one.

2016-03-06setup: make startup_info available everywhereLibravatar Jeff King1-5/+0
Commit a60645f (setup: remember whether repository was found, 2010-08-05) introduced the startup_info structure, which records some parts of the setup_git_directory() process (notably, whether we actually found a repository or not). One of the uses of this data is for functions to behave appropriately based on whether we are in a repo. But the startup_info struct is just a pointer to storage provided by the main program, and the only program that sets it up is the git.c wrapper. Thus builtins have access to startup_info, but externally linked programs do not. Worse, library code which is accessible from both has to be careful about accessing startup_info. This can be used to trigger a die("BUG") via get_sha1(): $ git fast-import <<-\EOF tag foo from HEAD:./whatever EOF fatal: BUG: startup_info struct is not initialized. Obviously that's fairly nonsensical input to feed to fast-import, but we should never hit a die("BUG"). And there may be other ways to trigger it if other non-builtins resolve sha1s. So let's point the storage for startup_info to a static variable in setup.c, making it available to all users of the library code. We _could_ turn startup_info into a regular extern struct, but doing so would mean tweaking all of the existing use sites. So let's leave the pointer indirection in place. We can, however, drop any checks for NULL, as they will always be false (and likewise, we can drop the test covering this case, which was a rather artificial situation using one of the test-* programs).

2013-12-09rev-parse: correctly diagnose revision errors before "--"Libravatar Jeff King1-0/+24
Rev-parse understands that a "--" may separate revisions and filenames, and that anything after the "--" is taken as-is. However, it does not understand that anything before the token must be a revision (which is the usual rule implemented by the setup_revisions parser). Since rev-parse prefers revisions to files when parsing before the "--", we end up with the correct result (if such an argument is a revision, we parse it as one, and if it is not, it is an error either way). However, we misdiagnose the errors: $ git rev-parse foobar -- >/dev/null fatal: ambiguous argument 'foobar': unknown revision or path not in the working tree. Use '--' to separate paths from revisions, like this: 'git <command> [<revision>...] -- [<file>...]' $ >foobar $ git rev-parse foobar -- >/dev/null fatal: bad flag '--' used after filename In both cases, we should know that the real error is that "foobar" is meant to be a revision, but could not be resolved.

2012-08-23specifying ranges: we did not mean to make ".." an empty setLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+14
Either end of revision range operator can be omitted to default to HEAD, as in "origin.." (what did I do since I forked) or "..origin" (what did they do since I forked). But the current parser interprets ".." as an empty range "HEAD..HEAD", and worse yet, because ".." does exist on the filesystem, we get this annoying output: $ cd Documentation/howto $ git log .. ;# give me recent commits that touch Documentation/ area. fatal: ambiguous argument '..': both revision and filename Use '--' to separate filenames from revisions Surely we could say "git log ../" or even "git log -- .." to disambiguate, but we shouldn't have to.

2012-06-18verify_filename(): ask the caller to chose the kind of diagnosisLibravatar Matthieu Moy1-1/+1
verify_filename() can be called in two different contexts. Either we just tried to interpret a string as an object name, and it fails, so we try looking for a working tree file (i.e. we finished looking at revs that come earlier on the command line, and the next argument must be a pathname), or we _know_ that we are looking for a pathname, and shouldn't even try interpreting the string as an object name. For example, with this change, we get: $ git log COPYING HEAD:inexistant fatal: HEAD:inexistant: no such path in the working tree. Use '-- <path>...' to specify paths that do not exist locally. $ git log HEAD:inexistant fatal: Path 'inexistant' does not exist in 'HEAD' Signed-off-by: Matthieu Moy <Matthieu.Moy@imag.fr> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2012-06-18sha1_name: do not trigger detailed diagnosis for file argumentsLibravatar Matthieu Moy1-0/+11
diagnose_invalid_sha1_path() is meant to be called to diagnose a misspelt <treeish>:<pathname> when <pathname> does not exist in <treeish>. However, the code may call it if <treeish>:<pathname> is invalid (which triggers another call with only_to_die == 1), but for another reason. This happens when calling e.g. git log existing-file HEAD:existing-file because existing-file is a path and not a revision, the code verifies that the arguments that follow to be paths. This leads to an incorrect message like "existing-file does not exist in HEAD", even though the path exists in HEAD. Check that the search for <pathname> in <treeish> fails before triggering the diagnosis. Signed-off-by: Matthieu Moy <Matthieu.Moy@imag.fr> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2011-05-09t1507: avoid "${parameter<op>'word'}" inside double-quotesLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+5
Kacper Kornet noticed that a $variable in "word" in the above construct is not substituted by his pdksh. Modern POSIX compliant shells (e.g. dash, ksh, bash) all seem to interpret POSIX "2.6.2 Parameter Expansion" that says "word shall be subjected to tilde expansion, parameter expansion, command substitution, and arithmetic expansion" in ${parameter<op>word}, to mean that the word is expanded as if it appeared in dq pairs, so if the word were "'$variable'" (sans dq) it would expand to a single quote, the value of the $variable and then a single quote. Johannes Sixt reports that the behavior of quoting at the right of :- when the ${...:-...} expansion appears in double-quotes was debated recently at length at the Austin group. We can avoid this issue and future-proof the test by a slight rewrite. Helped-by: Johannes Sixt <j.sixt@viscovery.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2010-12-09get_sha1: teach ":$n:<path>" the same relative path logicLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+24
We taught the object name parser to take ":./<path>", ":../<path>", etc. and understand them to be relative to the current working directory. Given that ":<path>" is just a short-hand for ":0:<path>" (i.e. "take stage #0 of that path"), we should allow ":$n:<path>" to interpret them the same way.

2010-12-07get_sha1: support relative path ":path" syntaxLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-0/+62
Currently :path and ref:path can be used to refer to a specific object in index or ref respectively. "path" component is absolute path. This patch allows "path" to be written as "./path" or "../path", which is relative to user's original cwd. This does not work in commands for which startup_info is NULL (i.e. non-builtin ones, it seems none of them needs this anyway).
