2016-09-26get_short_sha1: parse tags when looking for treeishLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+7
The treeish disambiguation function tries to peel tags, but it does so by calling: deref_tag(lookup_object(sha1), ...); This will only work if we have previously looked at the tag and created a "struct tag" for it. Since parsing revision arguments typically happens before anything else, this is usually not the case, and we would fail to peel the tag (we are lucky that deref_tag() gracefully handles the NULL and does not segfault). Instead, we can use parse_object(). Note that this is the same fix done by 94d75d1 (get_short_sha1(): correctly disambiguate type-limited abbreviation, 2013-07-01), but that commit fixed only the committish disambiguator, and left the bug in the treeish one.

2016-09-26get_sha1: propagate flags to child functionsLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+13
The get_sha1() function is actually implementation by many sub-functions, but we do not always pass our flags around to all of those functions. As a result, we may forget that our caller asked us to resolve with GET_SHA1_QUIETLY and output messages. The two triggerable cases are: 1. Resolving treeish:path will resolve the "treeish" portion using GET_SHA1_TREEISH, dropping all other flags. 2. The peel_onion() function did not take flags at all but recurses to get_sha1_1(), which does. The solution for both is to bitwise-OR their new flags with the existing ones (after dropping any mutually exclusive disambiguation flags). This bug can trigger with "git rev-parse --quiet", which asks for quiet resolution. But it can also happen in a more vanilla code path when we do a follow-up ONLY_TO_DIE invocation of get_sha1(), and that's what the tests check.

2016-09-26get_sha1: avoid repeating ourselves via ONLY_TO_DIELibravatar Jeff King1-0/+6
When the revision code cannot parse an argument like "HEAD:foo", it will call maybe_die_on_misspelt_object_name(), which re-runs get_sha1() with an extra ONLY_TO_DIE flag. We then spend more effort to generate a better error message. Unfortunately, a side effect is that our second call may repeat the same error messages from the original get_sha1() call. You can see this with: $ git show 0017 error: short SHA1 0017 is ambiguous. error: short SHA1 0017 is ambiguous. fatal: ambiguous argument '0017': unknown revision or path not in the working tree. Use '--' to separate paths from revisions, like this: 'git <command> [<revision>...] -- [<file>...]' where the second "error:" line comes from the ONLY_TO_DIE call. To fix this, we can make ONLY_TO_DIE imply QUIETLY. This is a little odd, because the whole point of ONLY_TO_DIE is to output error messages. But what we want to do is tell the rest of the get_sha1() code (particularly get_sha1_1()) that the _regular_ messages should be quiet, but the only-to-die ones should not.

2015-12-27t/t1512-rev-parse-disambiguation.sh: use the $( ... ) construct for command ↵Libravatar Elia Pinto1-4/+4
substitution The Git CodingGuidelines prefer the $(...) construct for command substitution instead of using the backquotes `...`. The backquoted form is the traditional method for command substitution, and is supported by POSIX. However, all but the simplest uses become complicated quickly. In particular, embedded command substitutions and/or the use of double quotes require careful escaping with the backslash character. The patch was generated by: for _f in $(find . -name "*.sh") do perl -i -pe 'BEGIN{undef $/;} s/`(.+?)`/\$(\1)/smg' "${_f}" done and then carefully proof-read.

2013-07-01t1512: correct leftover constants from earlier editionLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-10/+22
The earliest iteration of this test script used a magic string 110282 as the common prefix for ambiguous object names, but the final edition switched the common prefix to 0000000000 (10 "0"s). Unfortunately, instances of the original prefix were left in the comments and a few tests. Replace them with the correct constants. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2013-05-29get_sha1: warn about full or short object names that look like refsLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-0/+18
When we get 40 hex digits, we immediately assume it's an SHA-1. This is the right thing to do because we have no way else to specify an object. If there is a ref with the same object name, it will be ignored. Warn the user about this case because the ref with full object name is likely a mistake, for example git checkout -b $empty_var $(git rev-parse something) advice.object_name_warning is not documented because frankly people should not be aware about it until they encounter this situation. While at there, warn about ambiguation with abbreviated SHA-1 too. Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclouds@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2012-07-13t1512: match the "other" object namesLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-3/+3
The test creates 16 objects that share the same prefix, and two other objects that do not. Tweak the test so that the other two share the same prefix that is different from the one that is shared by the 16. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2012-07-09reset: the command takes committishLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
This is not strictly correct, in that resetting selected index entries from corresponding paths out of a given tree without moving HEAD is a valid operation, and in such case a tree-ish would suffice. But the existing code already requires a committish in the codepath, so let's be consistent with it for now. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2012-07-09sha1_name.c: add support for disambiguating other typesLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
This teaches the revision parser that in "$name:$path" (used for a blob object name), "$name" must be a tree-ish. There are many more places where we know what types of objects are called for. This patch adds support for "commit", "treeish", "tree", and "blob", which could be used in the following contexts: - "git apply --build-fake-ancestor" reads the "index" lines from the patch; they must name blob objects (not even "blob-ish"); - "git commit-tree" reads a tree object name (not "tree-ish"), and zero or more commit object names (not "committish"); - "git reset $rev" wants a committish; "git reset $rev -- $path" wants a treeish. They will come in later patches in the series. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2012-07-09revision.c: the "log" family, except for "show", takes committishLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
Add a field to setup_revision_opt structure and allow these callers to tell the setup_revisions command parsing machinery that short SHA1 it encounters are meant to name committish. This step does not go all the way to connect the setup_revisions() to sha1_name.c yet. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2012-07-09sha1_name.c: introduce get_sha1_committish()Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
Many callers know that the user meant to name a committish by syntactical positions where the object name appears. Calling this function allows the machinery to disambiguate shorter-than-unique abbreviated object names between committish and others. Note that this does NOT error out when the named object is not a committish. It is merely to give a hint to the disambiguation machinery. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2012-07-09sha1_name.c: many short names can only be committishLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
We know that the token "$name" that appear in "$name^{commit}", "$name^4", "$name~4" etc. can only name a committish (either a commit or a tag that peels to a commit).
