2016-11-29sequencer: use trailer's trailer layoutLibravatar Jonathan Tan1-5/+32
Make sequencer use trailer.c's trailer layout definition, as opposed to parsing the footer by itself. This makes "commit -s", "cherry-pick -x", and "format-patch --signoff" consistent with trailer, allowing non-trailer lines and multiple-line trailers in trailer blocks under certain conditions, and therefore suppressing the extra newline in those cases. Consistency with trailer extends to respecting trailer configs. Tests have been included to show that.

2016-09-15format-patch: show base info before email signatureLibravatar Josh Triplett1-6/+27
Any text below the "-- " for the email signature gets treated as part of the signature, and many mail clients will trim it from the quoted text for a reply. Move it above the signature, so people can reply to it more easily. Similarly, when producing the patch as a MIME attachment, the original code placed the base info after the attached part, which would be discarded. Move the base info to the end of the part, still inside the part boundary. Add tests for the exact format of the email signature, and add tests to ensure that the base info appears before the email signature when producing a plain-text output, and that it appears before the part boundary when producing a MIME attachment.

2016-06-06pretty: support "mboxrd" output formatLibravatar Eric Wong1-0/+41
This output format prevents format-patch output from breaking readers if somebody copy+pasted an mbox into a commit message. Unlike the traditional "mboxo" format, "mboxrd" is designed to be fully-reversible. "mboxrd" also gracefully degrades to showing extra ">" in existing "mboxo" readers. This degradation is preferable to breaking message splitting completely, a problem I've seen in "mboxcl" due to having multiple, non-existent, or inaccurate Content-Length headers. "mboxcl2" is a non-starter since it's inherits the problems of "mboxcl" while being completely incompatible with existing tooling based around mailsplit. ref: http://homepage.ntlworld.com/jonathan.deboynepollard/FGA/mail-mbox-formats.html Signed-off-by: Eric Wong <e@80x24.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2016-06-01test-lib: add in-shell "env" replacementLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
The one-shot environment variable syntax: FOO=BAR some-program is unportable when some-program is actually a shell function, like test_must_fail (on some shells FOO remains set after the function returns, and on others it does not). We sometimes get around this by using env, like: test_must_fail env FOO=BAR some-program But that only works because test_must_fail's arguments are themselves a command which can be run. You can't run: env FOO=BAR test_must_fail some-program because env does not know about our shell functions. So there is no equivalent for test_commit, for example, and one must resort to: ( FOO=BAR export FOO test_commit ) which is a bit verbose. Let's add a version of "env" that works _inside_ the shell, by creating a subshell, exporting variables from its argument list, and running the command. Its use is demonstrated on a currently-unportable case in t4014. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2016-04-26format-patch: add '--base' option to record base tree infoLibravatar Xiaolong Ye1-0/+47
Maintainers or third party testers may want to know the exact base tree the patch series applies to. Teach git format-patch a '--base' option to record the base tree info and append it at the end of the first message (either the cover letter or the first patch in the series). The base tree info consists of the "base commit", which is a well-known commit that is part of the stable part of the project history everybody else works off of, and zero or more "prerequisite patches", which are well-known patches in flight that is not yet part of the "base commit" that need to be applied on top of "base commit" in topological order before the patches can be applied. The "base commit" is shown as "base-commit: " followed by the 40-hex of the commit object name. A "prerequisite patch" is shown as "prerequisite-patch-id: " followed by the 40-hex "patch id", which can be obtained by passing the patch through the "git patch-id --stable" command. Imagine that on top of the public commit P, you applied well-known patches X, Y and Z from somebody else, and then built your three-patch series A, B, C, the history would be like: ---P---X---Y---Z---A---B---C With "git format-patch --base=P -3 C" (or variants thereof, e.g. with "--cover-letter" of using "Z..C" instead of "-3 C" to specify the range), the base tree information block is shown at the end of the first message the command outputs (either the first patch, or the cover letter), like this: base-commit: P prerequisite-patch-id: X prerequisite-patch-id: Y prerequisite-patch-id: Z Helped-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com> Helped-by: Wu Fengguang <fengguang.wu@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Xiaolong Ye <xiaolong.ye@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2016-02-25diff: activate diff.renames by defaultLibravatar Matthieu Moy1-2/+2
Rename detection is a very convenient feature, and new users shouldn't have to dig in the documentation to benefit from it. Potential objections to activating rename detection are that it sometimes fail, and it is sometimes slow. But rename detection is already activated by default in several cases like "git status" and "git merge", so activating diff.renames does not fundamentally change the situation. When the rename detection fails, it now fails consistently between "git diff" and "git status". This setting does not affect plumbing commands, hence well-written scripts will not be affected.

"git format-patch --ignore-if-in-upstream A..B", when either A or B is a tag, failed miserably. This is because the code passes the tips it used for traversal to clear_commit_marks(), after running a temporary revision traversal to enumerate the commits on both branches to find if they have commits that make equivalent changes. The revision traversal machinery knows how to enumerate commits reachable starting from a tag, but clear_commit_marks() wants to take nothing but a commit. In the longer term, it might be a more correct fix to teach clear_commit_marks() to do the same "committish to commit" dereferencing that is done in the revision traversal machinery, but for now this fix should suffice.

The backquoted form is the traditional method for command substitution, and is supported by POSIX. However, all but the simplest uses become complicated quickly.

2014-03-19tests: use "env" to run commands with temporary env-var settingsLibravatar David Tran1-11/+3
Ordinarily, we would say "VAR=VAL command" to execute a tested command with environment variable(s) set only for that command. This however does not work if 'command' is a shell function (most notably 'test_must_fail'); the result of the assignment is retained and affects later commands. To avoid this, we used to assign and export environment variables and run such a test in a subshell, like so: ( VAR=VAL && export VAR && test_must_fail git command to be tested ) But with "env" utility, we should be able to say: test_must_fail env VAR=VAL git command to be tested which is much shorter and easier to read.

2013-10-29t: use perl instead of "$PERL_PATH" where applicableLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
As of the last commit, we can use "perl" instead of "$PERL_PATH" when running tests, as the former is now a function which uses the latter. As the shorter "perl" is easier on the eyes, let's switch to using it everywhere. This is not quite a mechanical s/$PERL_PATH/perl/ replacement, though. There are some places where we invoke perl from a script we generate on the fly, and those scripts do not have access to our internal shell functions. The result can be double-checked by running: ln -s /bin/false bin-wrappers/perl make test which continues to pass even after this patch.

2013-09-20format-patch: print in-body "From" only when neededLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+10
Commit a908047 taught format-patch the "--from" option, which places the author ident into an in-body from header, and uses the committer ident in the rfc822 from header. The documentation claims that it will omit the in-body header when it is the same as the rfc822 header, but the code never implemented that behavior. This patch completes the feature by comparing the two idents and doing nothing when they are the same (this is the same as simply omitting the in-body header, as the two are by definition indistinguishable in this case). This makes it reasonable to turn on "--from" all the time (if it matches your particular workflow), rather than only using it when exporting other people's patches.

2013-07-03teach format-patch to place other authors into in-body "From"Libravatar Jeff King1-0/+43
Format-patch generates emails with the "From" address set to the author of each patch. If you are going to send the emails, however, you would want to replace the author identity with yours (if they are not the same), and bump the author identity to an in-body header. Normally this is handled by git-send-email, which does the transformation before sending out the emails. However, some workflows may not use send-email (e.g., imap-send, or a custom script which feeds the mbox to a non-git MUA). They could each implement this feature themselves, but getting it right is non-trivial (one must canonicalize the identities by reversing any RFC2047 encoding or RFC822 quoting of the headers, which has caused many bugs in send-email over the years). This patch takes a different approach: it teaches format-patch a "--from" option which handles the ident check and in-body header while it is writing out the email. It's much simpler to do at this level (because we haven't done any quoting yet), and any workflow based on format-patch can easily turn it on.

Even though an earlier attempt (bafc478..41dd00bad) cleaned up RFC 2047 encoding, pretty.c::add_rfc2047() still decides where to split the output line by going through the input one byte at a time, and potentially splits a character in the middle. A subject line may end up showing like this: ".... fö?? bar". (instead of ".... föö bar".) if split incorrectly. RFC 2047, section 5 (3) explicitly forbids such beaviour Each 'encoded-word' MUST represent an integral number of characters. A multi-octet character may not be split across adjacent 'encoded- word's. that means that e.g. for Subject: .... föö bar encoding Subject: =?UTF-8?q?....=20f=C3=B6=C3=B6?= =?UTF-8?q?=20bar?= is correct, and Subject: =?UTF-8?q?....=20f=C3=B6=C3?= <-- NOTE ö is broken here =?UTF-8?q?=B6=20bar?= is not, because "ö" character UTF-8 encoding C3 B6 is split here across adjacent encoded words. To fix the problem, make the loop grab one _character_ at a time and determine its output length to see where to break the output line. Note that this version only knows about UTF-8, but the logic to grab one character is abstracted out in mbs_chrlen() function to make it possible to extend it to other encodings with the help of iconv in the future.

Teach various forms of "format-patch" command line to identify what branch the patches are taken from, so that the branch description is picked up in more cases. * nd/maint-branch-desc-doc: format-patch: pick up branch description when no ref is specified format-patch: pick up correct branch name from symbolic ref t4014: a few more tests on cover letter using branch description branch: delete branch description if it's empty config.txt: a few lines about branch.<name>.description
2013-01-03format-patch: give --reroll-count a short synonym -vLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+8
Accept "-v" as a synonym to "--reroll-count", so that users can say "git format-patch -v4 master", instead of having to fully spell it out as "git format-patch --reroll-count=4 master". As I do not think of a reason why users would want to tell the command to be "verbose", I think this should be OK. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2013-01-03format-patch: pick up branch description when no ref is specifiedLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-0/+7
We only try to get branch name in "format-patch origin" case or similar and not "format-patch -22" where HEAD is automatically added. Without correct branch name, branch description cannot be added. Make sure we always get branch name. Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclouds@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2013-01-03format-patch: pick up correct branch name from symbolic refLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-0/+14
find_branch_name() assumes to take refs/heads/<branch>. But we also have symbolic refs, such as HEAD, that can point to a valid branch in refs/heads and do not follow refs/heads/<branch> syntax. Remove the assumption and apply normal ref resolution. After all it would be confusing if rev machinery resolves a ref in one way and find_branch_name() another.

2013-01-02Merge branch 'jc/maint-test-portability'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-3/+3
t4014, t9502 and t0200 tests had various portability issues that broke on OpenBSD. * jc/maint-test-portability: t4014: fix arguments to grep t9502: do not assume GNU tar t0200: "locale" may not exist
2012-12-19t4014: fix arguments to grepLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-3/+3
These "expect-failure" tests were not looking for the right string in the patch file. For example: grep "^ *"S. E. Cipient" <scipient@example.com>\$" patch5 was looking for "^ *S." in these three files: "E." "Cipient <scipient@example.com>$" "patch5" With some implementations of grep, the lack of file "E." was reported as an error, leading to the failure of the test. With other implementations of grep, the pattern "^ *S." matched what was in patch5, without diagnosing the missing files as an error, and made these tests unexpectedly pass.
