2020-03-27t5512: stop losing return codes of git commandsLibravatar Denton Liu1-7/+7
In a pipe, only the return code of the last command is used. Thus, all other commands will have their return codes masked.

2020-03-27t5512: stop losing git exit code in here-docsLibravatar Denton Liu1-29/+35
The expected references are generated using a here-doc with some inline command substitutions. If one of the `git rev-parse` invocations within the command substitutions fails, its return code is swallowed and we won't know about it. Replace these command substitutions with generate_references(), which actually reports when `git rev-parse` fails.

2020-01-15test: request GIT_TEST_PROTOCOL_VERSION=0 when appropriateLibravatar Jonathan Nieder1-5/+5
Since 8cbeba0632 (tests: define GIT_TEST_PROTOCOL_VERSION, 2019-02-25), it has been possible to run tests with a newer protocol version by setting the GIT_TEST_PROTOCOL_VERSION envvar to a version number. Tests that assume protocol v0 handle this by explicitly setting GIT_TEST_PROTOCOL_VERSION= or similar constructs like 'test -z "$GIT_TEST_PROTOCOL_VERSION" || return 0' to declare that they only handle the default (v0) protocol. The emphasis there is a bit off: it would be clearer to specify GIT_TEST_PROTOCOL_VERSION=0 to inform the reader that these tests are specifically testing and relying on details of protocol v0. Do so. This way, a reader does not need to know what the default protocol version is, and the tests can continue to work when the default protocol version used by Git advances past v0.

2019-11-23tests: add 'test_bool_env' to catch non-bool GIT_TEST_* valuesLibravatar SZEDER Gábor1-1/+1
Since 3b072c577b (tests: replace test_tristate with "git env--helper", 2019-06-21) we get the normalized bool values of various GIT_TEST_* environment variables via 'git env--helper'. Now, while the 'git env--helper' command itself does catch invalid values in the environment variable or in the given --default and exits with error (exit code 128 or 129, respectively), it's invoked in conditions like 'if ! git env--helper ...', which means that all invalid bool values are interpreted the same as the ordinary 'false' (exit code 1). This has led to inadvertently skipped httpd tests in our CI builds for a couple of weeks, see 3960290675 (ci: restore running httpd tests, 2019-09-06). Let's be more careful about what the test suite accepts as bool values in GIT_TEST_* environment variables, and error out loud and clear on invalid values instead of simply skipping tests. Add the 'test_bool_env' helper function to encapsulate the invocation of 'git env--helper' and the verification of its exit code, and replace all invocations of that command in our test framework and test suite with a call to this new helper (except in 't0017-env-helper.sh', of course). $ GIT_TEST_GIT_DAEMON=YesPlease ./t5570-git-daemon.sh fatal: bad numeric config value 'YesPlease' for 'GIT_TEST_GIT_DAEMON': invalid unit error: test_bool_env requires bool values both for $GIT_TEST_GIT_DAEMON and for the default fallback Signed-off-by: SZEDER Gábor <szeder.dev@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2019-06-21tests: replace test_tristate with "git env--helper"Libravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-2/+1
The test_tristate helper introduced in 83d842dc8c ("tests: turn on network daemon tests by default", 2014-02-10) can now be better implemented with "git env--helper" to give the variables in question the standard boolean behavior. The reason for the "tristate" was to have all of false/true/auto, where "auto" meant either "false" or "true" depending on what the fallback was. With the --default option to "git env--helper" we can simply have e.g. GIT_TEST_HTTPD where we know if it's true because the user asked explicitly ("true"), or true implicitly ("auto"). This breaks backwards compatibility for explicitly setting "auto" for these variables, but I don't think anyone cares. That was always intended to be internal. This means the test_normalize_bool() code in test-lib-functions.sh goes away in addition to test_tristate(). We still need the test_skip_or_die() helper, but now it takes the variable name instead of the value, and uses "git env--bool" to distinguish a default "true" from an explicit "true" (in those "explicit true" cases we want to fail the test in question).

2019-01-10upload-pack: support hidden refs with protocol v2Libravatar Jeff King1-0/+6
In the v2 protocol, upload-pack's advertisement has been moved to the "ls-refs" command. That command does not respect hidden-ref config (like transfer.hiderefs) at all, and advertises everything. While there are some features that are not supported in v2 (e.g., v2 always allows fetching any sha1 without respect to advertisements), the lack of this feature is not documented and is likely just a bug. Let's make it work, as otherwise upgrading a server to a v2-capable git will start exposing these refs that the repository admin has asked to remain hidden. Note that we assume we're operating on behalf of a fetch here, since that's the only thing implemented in v2 at this point. See the in-code comment. We'll have to figure out how this works when the v2 push protocol is designed (both here in ls-refs, but also rejecting updates to hidden refs).

2019-01-07test-lib-functions: introduce the 'test_set_port' helper functionLibravatar SZEDER Gábor1-1/+1
Several test scripts run daemons like 'git-daemon' or Apache, and communicate with them through TCP sockets. To have unique ports where these daemons are accessible, the ports are usually the number of the corresponding test scripts, unless the user overrides them via environment variables, and thus all those tests and test libs contain more or less the same bit of one-liner boilerplate code to find out the port. The last patch in this series will make this a bit more complicated. Factor out finding the port for a daemon into the common helper function 'test_set_port' to avoid repeating ourselves. Take special care of test scripts with "low" numbers: - Test numbers below 1024 would result in a port that's only usable as root, so set their port to '10000 + test-nr' to make sure it doesn't interfere with other tests in the test suite. This makes the hardcoded port number in 't0410-partial-clone.sh' unnecessary, remove it. - The shell's arithmetic evaluation interprets numbers with leading zeros as octal values, which means that test number below 1000 and containing the digits 8 or 9 will trigger an error. Remove all leading zeros from the test numbers to prevent this. Note that the 'git p4' tests are unlike the other tests involving daemons in that: - 'lib-git-p4.sh' doesn't use the test's number for unique port as is, but does a bit of additional arithmetic on top [1]. - The port is not overridable via an environment variable. With this patch even 'git p4' tests will use the test's number as default port, and it will be overridable via the P4DPORT environment variable. [1] Commit fc00233071 (git-p4 tests: refactor and cleanup, 2011-08-22) introduced that "unusual" unique port computation without explaining why it was necessary (as opposed to simply using the test number as is). It seems to be just unnecessary complication, and in any case that commit came way before the "test nr as unique port" got "standardized" for other daemons in commits c44132fcf3 (tests: auto-set git-daemon port, 2014-02-10), 3bb486e439 (tests: auto-set LIB_HTTPD_PORT from test name, 2014-02-10), and bf9d7df950 (t/lib-git-svn.sh: improve svnserve tests with parallel make test, 2017-12-01).

2018-11-16ref-filter: don't look for objects when outside of a repositoryLibravatar SZEDER Gábor1-0/+6
The command 'git ls-remote --sort=authordate <remote>' segfaults when run outside of a repository, ever since the introduction of its '--sort' option in 1fb20dfd8e (ls-remote: create '--sort' option, 2018-04-09). While in general the 'git ls-remote' command can be run outside of a repository just fine, its '--sort=<key>' option with certain keys does require access to the referenced objects. This sorting is implemented using the generic ref-filter sorting facility, which already handles missing objects gracefully with the appropriate 'missing object deadbeef for HEAD' message. However, being generic means that it checks replace refs while trying to retrieve an object, and while doing so it accesses the 'git_replace_ref_base' variable, which has not been initialized and is still a NULL pointer when outside of a repository, thus causing the segfault. Make ref-filter more careful upfront while parsing the format string, and make it error out when encountering a format atom requiring object access when we are not in a repository. Also add a test to ensure that 'git ls-remote --sort' fails gracefully when executed outside of a repository.

Unlike its arbitrary text patterns, the --heads and --tags options to ls-remote are true prefixes. We can pass this information to the transport code.

Since b4be74105f (ls-remote: pass ref prefixes when requesting a remote's refs, 2018-03-15), "ls-remote foo" will pass "refs/heads/foo", "refs/tags/foo", etc to the transport code in an attempt to let the other side reduce the size of its advertisement. Unfortunately this is not correct, as ls-remote patterns do not follow the usual ref lookup rules, and are in fact tail-matched. So we could find "refs/heads/foo" or "refs/heads/a/much/deeper/foo" or even "refs/another/hierarchy/foo". Since we can't pass a prefix and there's not yet a v2 extension for matching wildcards, we must disable this feature to keep the same behavior as v1.

2017-02-14remote: avoid reading $GIT_DIR config in non-repoLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+9
The "git ls-remote" command can be run outside of a repository, but needs to look up configured remotes. The config code is smart enough to handle this case itself, but we also check the historical "branches" and "remotes" paths in $GIT_DIR. The git_path() function causes us to blindly look at ".git/remotes", even if we know we aren't in a git repository. For now, this is just an unlikely bug (you probably don't have such a file if you're not in a repository), but it will become more obvious once we merge b1ef400ee (setup_git_env: avoid blind fall-back to ".git", 2016-10-20): [now] $ git ls-remote fatal: No remote configured to list refs from. [with b1ef400ee] $ git ls-remote fatal: BUG: setup_git_env called without repository We can fix this by skipping these sources entirely when we're outside of a repository. The test is a little more complex than the demonstration above. Rather than detect the correct behavior by parsing the error message, we can actually set up a case where the remote name we give is a valid repository, but b1ef400ee would cause us to die in the configuration step. This test doesn't fail now, but it future-proofs us for the b1ef400ee change. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2016-09-09connect: advertized capability is not a refLibravatar Jonathan Tan1-0/+40
When cloning an empty repository served by standard git, "git clone" produces the following reassuring message: $ git clone git://localhost/tmp/empty Cloning into 'empty'... warning: You appear to have cloned an empty repository. Checking connectivity... done. Meanwhile when cloning an empty repository served by JGit, the output is more haphazard: $ git clone git://localhost/tmp/empty Cloning into 'empty'... Checking connectivity... done. warning: remote HEAD refers to nonexistent ref, unable to checkout. This is a common command to run immediately after creating a remote repository as preparation for adding content to populate it and pushing. The warning is confusing and needlessly worrying. The cause is that, since v3.1.0.201309270735-rc1~22 (Advertise capabilities with no refs in upload service., 2013-08-08), JGit's ref advertisement includes a ref named capabilities^{} to advertise its capabilities on, while git's ref advertisement is empty in this case. This allows the client to learn about the server's capabilities and is needed, for example, for fetch-by-sha1 to work when no refs are advertised. This also affects "ls-remote". For example, against an empty repository served by JGit: $ git ls-remote git://localhost/tmp/empty 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 capabilities^{} Git advertises the same capabilities^{} ref in its ref advertisement for push but since it never did so for fetch, the client didn't need to handle this case.

2015-08-07refs: support negative transfer.hideRefsLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+23
If you hide a hierarchy of refs using the transfer.hideRefs config, there is no way to later override that config to "unhide" it. This patch implements a "negative" hide which causes matches to immediately be marked as unhidden, even if another match would hide it. We take care to apply the matches in reverse-order from how they are fed to us by the config machinery, as that lets our usual "last one wins" config precedence work (and entries in .git/config, for example, will override /etc/gitconfig). So you can now do: $ git config --system transfer.hideRefs refs/secret $ git config transfer.hideRefs '!refs/secret/not-so-secret' to hide refs/secret in all repos, except for one public bit in one specific repo. Or you can even do: $ git clone \ -u "git -c transfer.hiderefs="!refs/foo" upload-pack" \ remote:repo.git to clone remote:repo.git, overriding any hiding it has configured. There are two alternatives that were considered and rejected: 1. A generic config mechanism for removing an item from a list. E.g.: (e.g., "[transfer] hideRefs -= refs/foo"). This is nice because it could apply to other multi-valued config, as well. But it is not nearly as flexible. There is no way to say: [transfer] hideRefs = refs/secret hideRefs = refs/secret/not-so-secret Having explicit negative specifications means we can override previous entries, even if they are not the same literal string. 2. Adding another variable to override some parts of hideRefs (e.g., "exposeRefs"). This solves the problem from alternative (1), but it cannot easily obey the normal config precedence, because it would use two separate lists. For example: [transfer] hideRefs = refs/secret exposeRefs = refs/secret/not-so-secret hideRefs = refs/secret/not-so-secret/no-really-its-secret With two lists, we have to apply the "expose" rules first, and only then apply the "hide" rules. But that does not match what the above config intends. Of course we could internally parse that to a single list, respecting the ordering, which saves us having to invent the new "!" syntax. But using a single name communicates to the user that the ordering _is_ important. And "!" is well-known for negation, and should not appear at the beginning of a ref (it is actually valid in a ref-name, but all entries here should be fully-qualified, starting with "refs/").

2015-03-20t: wrap complicated expect_code users in a blockLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+4
If we are expecting a command to produce a particular exit code, we can use test_expect_code. However, some cases are more complicated, and want to accept one of a range of exit codes. For these, we end up with something like: cmd; case "$?" in ... That unfortunately breaks the &&-chain and fools --chain-lint. Since these special cases are so few, we can wrap them in a block, like this: { cmd; ret=$?; } && case "$ret" in ... This accomplishes the same thing, and retains the &&-chain (the exit status fed to the && is that of the assignment, which should always be true).

2013-02-07upload/receive-pack: allow hiding ref hierarchiesLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+12
A repository may have refs that are only used for its internal bookkeeping purposes that should not be exposed to the others that come over the network. Teach upload-pack to omit some refs from its initial advertisement by paying attention to the uploadpack.hiderefs multi-valued configuration variable. Do the same to receive-pack via the receive.hiderefs variable. As a convenient short-hand, allow using transfer.hiderefs to set the value to both of these variables. Any ref that is under the hierarchies listed on the value of these variable is excluded from responses to requests made by "ls-remote", "fetch", etc. (for upload-pack) and "push" (for receive-pack). Because these hidden refs do not count as OUR_REF, an attempt to fetch objects at the tip of them will be rejected, and because these refs do not get advertised, "git push :" will not see local branches that have the same name as them as "matching" ones to be sent. An attempt to update/delete these hidden refs with an explicit refspec, e.g. "git push origin :refs/hidden/22", is rejected. This is not a new restriction. To the pusher, it would appear that there is no such ref, so its push request will conclude with "Now that I sent you all the data, it is time for you to update the refs. I saw that the ref did not exist when I started pushing, and I want the result to point at this commit". The receiving end will apply the compare-and-swap rule to this request and rejects the push with "Well, your update request conflicts with somebody else; I see there is such a ref.", which is the right thing to do. Otherwise a push to a hidden ref will always be "the last one wins", which is not a good default. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

Instead of breaking execution when no remote (as specified in the variable dest) is specified when git-ls-remote is invoked, continue on and let remote_get() handle it. This way, we are able to use the default remotes (eg. "origin", branch.<name>.remote), as git-fetch, git-push, and other users of remote_get(), do. If no suitable remote is found, exit with a message describing the issue, instead of just the usage text, as we do previously. Add several tests to check that git-ls-remote handles the no-remote-specified situation. Also add a test that "git ls-remote <pattern>" does not work; we are unable to guess the remote in that situation, as are git-fetch and git-push. In that test, we are testing for messages coming from two separate processes, but we should be OK, because the second message is triggered by closing the fd which must happen after the first message is printed.

2008-05-05Fix tests breaking when checkout path contains shell metacharactersLibravatar Bryan Donlan1-1/+1
This fixes the remainder of the issues where the test script itself is at fault for failing when the git checkout path contains whitespace or other shell metacharacters. The majority of git svn tests used the idiom test_expect_success "title" "test script using $svnrepo" These were changed to have the test script in single-quotes: test_expect_success "title" 'test script using "$svnrepo"' which unfortunately makes the patch appear larger than it really is. One consequence of this change is that in the verbose test output the value of $svnrepo (and in some cases other variables, too) is no longer expanded, i.e. previously we saw * expecting success: test script using /path/to/git/t/trash/svnrepo but now it is: * expecting success: test script using "$svnrepo" Signed-off-by: Bryan Donlan <bdonlan@fushizen.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2008-03-13add test_cmp function for test scriptsLibravatar Jeff King1-4/+4
Many scripts compare actual and expected output using "diff -u". This is nicer than "cmp" because the output shows how the two differ. However, not all versions of diff understand -u, leading to unnecessary test failure. This adds a test_cmp function to the test scripts and switches all "diff -u" invocations to use it. The function uses the contents of "$GIT_TEST_CMP" to compare its arguments; the default is "diff -u". On systems with a less-capable diff, you can do: GIT_TEST_CMP=cmp make test Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2007-11-06Reteach builtin-ls-remote to understand remotesLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-0/+52
Prior to being made a builtin git-ls-remote understood that when it was given a remote name we wanted it to resolve that to the pre-configured URL and connect to that location. That changed when it was converted to a builtin and many of my automation tools broke. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
