2021-10-28add, rm, mv: fix bug that prevents the update of non-sparse dirsLibravatar Matheus Tavares1-0/+17
These three commands recently learned to avoid updating paths outside the sparse checkout even if they are missing the SKIP_WORKTREE bit. This is done using path_in_sparse_checkout(), which checks whether a given path matches the current list of sparsity rules, similar to what clear_ce_flags() does when we run "git sparse checkout init" or "git sparse-checkout reapply". However, clear_ce_flags() uses a recursive approach, applying the match results from parent directories on paths that get the UNDECIDED result, whereas path_in_sparse_checkout() only attempts to match the full path and immediately considers UNDECIDED as NOT_MATCHED. This makes the function miss matches with leading directories. For example, if the user has the sparsity patterns "!/a" and "b/", add, rm, and mv will fail to update the path "a/b/c" and end up displaying a warning about it being outside the sparse checkout even though it isn't. This problem only occurs in full pattern mode as the pattern matching functions never return UNDECIDED for cone mode. To fix this, replicate the recursive behavior of clear_ce_flags() in path_in_sparse_checkout(), falling back to the parent directory match when a path gets the UNDECIDED result. (If this turns out to be too expensive in some cases, we may want to later add some form of caching to accelerate multiple queries within the same directory. This is not implemented in this patch, though.) Also add two tests for each affected command (add, rm, and mv) to check that they behave correctly with the recursive pattern matching. The first test would previously fail without this patch while the second already succeeded. It is added mostly to make sure that we are not breaking the existing pattern matching for directories that are really sparse, and also as a protection against any future regressions. Two other existing tests had to be changed as well: one test in t3602 checks that "git rm -r <dir>" won't remove sparse entries, but it didn't allow the non-sparse entries inside <dir> to be removed. The other one, in t7002, tested that "git mv" would correctly display a warning message for sparse paths, but it accidentally expected the message to include two non-sparse paths as well.

2021-09-28advice: update message to suggest '--sparse'Libravatar Derrick Stolee1-3/+6
The previous changes modified the behavior of 'git add', 'git rm', and 'git mv' to not adjust paths outside the sparse-checkout cone, even if they exist in the working tree and their cache entries lack the SKIP_WORKTREE bit. The intention is to warn users that they are doing something potentially dangerous. The '--sparse' option was added to each command to allow careful users the same ability they had before. To improve the discoverability of this new functionality, add a message to advice.updateSparsePath that mentions the existence of the option. The previous set of changes also modified the purpose of this message to include possibly a list of paths instead of only a list of pathspecs. Make the warning message more clear about this new behavior. Signed-off-by: Derrick Stolee <dstolee@microsoft.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2021-09-28add: update --renormalize to skip sparse pathsLibravatar Derrick Stolee1-1/+11
We added checks for path_in_sparse_checkout() to portions of 'git add' that add warnings and prevent stagins a modification, but we skipped the --renormalize mode. Update renormalize_tracked_files() to ignore cache entries whose path is outside of the sparse-checkout cone (unless --sparse is provided). Add a test in t3705.

2021-09-28add: update --chmod to skip sparse pathsLibravatar Derrick Stolee1-1/+9
We added checks for path_in_sparse_checkout() to portions of 'git add' that add warnings and prevent staging a modification, but we skipped the --chmod mode. Update chmod_pathspec() to ignore cache entries whose path is outside of the sparse-checkout cone (unless --sparse is provided). Add a test in t3705.

2021-09-28add: implement the --sparse optionLibravatar Derrick Stolee1-1/+16
We previously modified 'git add' to refuse updating index entries outside of the sparse-checkout cone. This is justified to prevent users from accidentally getting into a confusing state when Git removes those files from the working tree at some later point. Unfortunately, this caused some workflows that were previously possible to become impossible, especially around merge conflicts outside of the sparse-checkout cone. These were documented in tests within t1092. We now re-enable these workflows using a new '--sparse' option to 'git add'. This allows users to signal "Yes, I do know what I'm doing with these files," and accept the consequences of the files leaving the worktree later. We delay updating the advice message until implementing a similar option in 'git rm' and 'git mv'.

2021-09-28add: skip tracked paths outside sparse-checkout coneLibravatar Derrick Stolee1-0/+12
When 'git add' adds a tracked file that is outside of the sparse-checkout cone, it checks the SKIP_WORKTREE bit to see if the file exists outside of the sparse-checkout cone. This is usually correct, except in the case of a merge conflict outside of the cone. Modify add_pathspec_matched_against_index() to be more careful about paths by checking the sparse-checkout patterns in addition to the SKIP_WORKTREE bit. This causes 'git add' to no longer allow files outside of the cone that removed the SKIP_WORKTREE bit due to a merge conflict. With only this change, users will only be able to add the file after adding the file to the sparse-checkout cone. A later change will allow users to force adding even though the file is outside of the sparse-checkout cone.

2021-09-24t3705: test that 'sparse_entry' is unstagedLibravatar Derrick Stolee1-0/+14
The tests in t3705-add-sparse-checkout.sh check to see how 'git add' behaves with paths outside the sparse-checkout definition. These currently check to see if a given warning is present but not that the index is not updated with the sparse entries. Add a new 'test_sparse_entry_unstaged' helper to be sure 'git add' is behaving correctly. We need to modify setup_sparse_entry to actually commit the sparse_entry file so it exists at HEAD and as an entry in the index, but its exact contents are not staged in the index.

2021-04-08add: warn when asked to update SKIP_WORKTREE entriesLibravatar Matheus Tavares1-7/+66
`git add` already refrains from updating SKIP_WORKTREE entries, but it silently exits with zero code when it is asked to do so. Instead, let's warn the user and display a hint on how to update these entries. Note that we only warn the user whey they give a pathspec item that matches no eligible path for updating, but it does match one or more SKIP_WORKTREE entries. A warning was chosen over erroring out right away to reproduce the same behavior `add` already exhibits with ignored files. This also allow users to continue their workflow without having to invoke `add` again with only the eligible paths (as those will have already been added).

2021-04-08t3705: add tests for `git add` in sparse checkoutsLibravatar Matheus Tavares1-0/+96
We already have a couple tests for `add` with SKIP_WORKTREE entries in t7012, but these only cover the most basic scenarios. As we will be changing how `add` deals with sparse paths in the subsequent commits, let's move these two tests to their own file and add more test cases for different `add` options and situations. This also demonstrates two options that don't currently respect SKIP_WORKTREE entries: `--chmod` and `--renormalize`.
