2020-11-19tests: mark tests relying on the current default for `init.defaultBranch`Libravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+3
In addition to the manual adjustment to let the `linux-gcc` CI job run the test suite with `master` and then with `main`, this patch makes sure that GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME is set in all test scripts that currently rely on the initial branch name being `master by default. To determine which test scripts to mark up, the first step was to force-set the default branch name to `master` in - all test scripts that contain the keyword `master`, - t4211, which expects `t/t4211/history.export` with a hard-coded ref to initialize the default branch, - t5560 because it sources `t/t556x_common` which uses `master`, - t8002 and t8012 because both source `t/annotate-tests.sh` which also uses `master`) This trick was performed by this command: $ sed -i '/^ *\. \.\/\(test-lib\|lib-\(bash\|cvs\|git-svn\)\|gitweb-lib\)\.sh$/i\ GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME=master\ export GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME\ ' $(git grep -l master t/t[0-9]*.sh) \ t/t4211*.sh t/t5560*.sh t/t8002*.sh t/t8012*.sh After that, careful, manual inspection revealed that some of the test scripts containing the needle `master` do not actually rely on a specific default branch name: either they mention `master` only in a comment, or they initialize that branch specificially, or they do not actually refer to the current default branch. Therefore, the aforementioned modification was undone in those test scripts thusly: $ git checkout HEAD -- \ t/t0027-auto-crlf.sh t/t0060-path-utils.sh \ t/t1011-read-tree-sparse-checkout.sh \ t/t1305-config-include.sh t/t1309-early-config.sh \ t/t1402-check-ref-format.sh t/t1450-fsck.sh \ t/t2024-checkout-dwim.sh \ t/t2106-update-index-assume-unchanged.sh \ t/t3040-subprojects-basic.sh t/t3301-notes.sh \ t/t3308-notes-merge.sh t/t3423-rebase-reword.sh \ t/t3436-rebase-more-options.sh \ t/t4015-diff-whitespace.sh t/t4257-am-interactive.sh \ t/t5323-pack-redundant.sh t/t5401-update-hooks.sh \ t/t5511-refspec.sh t/t5526-fetch-submodules.sh \ t/t5529-push-errors.sh t/t5530-upload-pack-error.sh \ t/t5548-push-porcelain.sh \ t/t5552-skipping-fetch-negotiator.sh \ t/t5572-pull-submodule.sh t/t5608-clone-2gb.sh \ t/t5614-clone-submodules-shallow.sh \ t/t7508-status.sh t/t7606-merge-custom.sh \ t/t9302-fast-import-unpack-limit.sh We excluded one set of test scripts in these commands, though: the range of `git p4` tests. The reason? `git p4` stores the (foreign) remote branch in the branch called `p4/master`, which is obviously not the default branch. Manual analysis revealed that only five of these tests actually require a specific default branch name to pass; They were modified thusly: $ sed -i '/^ *\. \.\/lib-git-p4\.sh$/i\ GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME=master\ export GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME\ ' t/t980[0167]*.sh t/t9811*.sh Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2020-10-23tests: prepare aligned mentions of the default branch nameLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-35/+35
In some tests, the default branch name is part of aligned output. As we want to change the default branch name to `main`, which is two characters shorter than the old default branch name, we will have to adjust those tests. Since we use the original default branch name until the entire test suite has been adjusted accordingly, the touched test cases need to be guarded by a prereq (that is so far disabled so that they are skipped for now). The test cases that depend on those test cases that are newly guarded by that prereq naturally have to be guarded, too.

2018-12-09fetch: ensure submodule objects fetchedLibravatar Stefan Beller1-0/+117
Currently when git-fetch is asked to recurse into submodules, it dispatches a plain "git-fetch -C <submodule-dir>" (with some submodule related options such as prefix and recusing strategy, but) without any information of the remote or the tip that should be fetched. But this default fetch is not sufficient, as a newly fetched commit in the superproject could point to a commit in the submodule that is not in the default refspec. This is common in workflows like Gerrit's. When fetching a Gerrit change under review (from refs/changes/??), the commits in that change likely point to submodule commits that have not been merged to a branch yet. Fetch a submodule object by id if the object that the superproject points to, cannot be found. For now this object is fetched from the 'origin' remote as we defer getting the default remote to a later patch. A list of new submodule commits are already generated in certain conditions (by check_for_new_submodule_commits()); this new feature invokes that function in more situations. The submodule checks were done only when a ref in the superproject changed, these checks were extended to also be performed when fetching into FETCH_HEAD for completeness, and add a test for that too.

2018-08-21tests: use 'test_must_be_empty' instead of 'test_cmp <empty> <out>'Libravatar SZEDER Gábor1-2/+1
Using 'test_must_be_empty' is shorter and more idiomatic than >empty && test_cmp empty out as it saves the creation of an empty file. Furthermore, sometimes the expected empty file doesn't have such a descriptive name like 'empty', and its creation is far away from the place where it's finally used for comparison (e.g. in 't7600-merge.sh', where two expected empty files are created in the 'setup' test, but are used only about 500 lines later). These cases were found by instrumenting 'test_cmp' to error out the test script when it's used to compare empty files, and then converted manually. Note that even after this patch there still remain a lot of cases where we use 'test_cmp' to check empty files: - Sometimes the expected output is not hard-coded in the test, but 'test_cmp' is used to ensure that two similar git commands produce the same output, and that output happens to be empty, e.g. the test 'submodule update --merge - ignores --merge for new submodules' in 't7406-submodule-update.sh'. - Repetitive common tasks, including preparing the expected results and running 'test_cmp', are often extracted into a helper function, and some of this helper's callsites expect no output. - For the same reason as above, the whole 'test_expect_success' block is within a helper function, e.g. in 't3070-wildmatch.sh'. - Or 'test_cmp' is invoked in a loop, e.g. the test 'cvs update (-p)' in 't9400-git-cvsserver-server.sh'.

2018-08-21tests: use 'test_must_be_empty' instead of '! test -s'Libravatar SZEDER Gábor1-21/+21
Using 'test_must_be_empty' is preferable to '! test -s', because it gives a helpful error message if the given file is unexpectedly not empty, while the latter remains completely silent. Furthermore, it also catches cases when the given file unexpectedly does not exist at all. This patch was basically created by: sed -i -e 's/! test -s/test_must_be_empty/' t[0-9]*.sh with the following notable exceptions: - The '! test -s' check in '.gitmodules ignore=dirty suppresses submodules with untracked content' in 't7508-status.sh' is left as-is, because it's bogus and, therefore, it's subject of a dedicated patch. - The '! test -s' checks in 't9131-git-svn-empty-symlink.sh' and 't9135-git-svn-moved-branch-empty-file.sh' are immediately preceeded by a 'test -f' to ensure that the files exist in the first place. 'test_must_be_empty' ensures that as well, so those 'test -f' commands are removed as well. Signed-off-by: SZEDER Gábor <szeder.dev@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2018-03-14Merge branch 'sg/test-x'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
Running test scripts under -x option of the shell is often not a useful way to debug them, because the error messages from the commands tests try to capture and inspect are contaminated by the tracing output by the shell. An earlier work done to make it more pleasant to run tests under -x with recent versions of bash is extended to cover posix shells that do not support BASH_XTRACEFD. * sg/test-x: travis-ci: run tests with '-x' tracing t/README: add a note about don't saving stderr of compound commands t1510-repo-setup: mark as untraceable with '-x' t9903-bash-prompt: don't check the stderr of __git_ps1() t5570-git-daemon: don't check the stderr of a subshell t5526: use $TRASH_DIRECTORY to specify the path of GIT_TRACE log file t5500-fetch-pack: don't check the stderr of a subshell t3030-merge-recursive: don't check the stderr of a subshell t1507-rev-parse-upstream: don't check the stderr of a shell function t: add means to disable '-x' tracing for individual test scripts t: prevent '-x' tracing from interfering with test helpers' stderr
2018-02-28t5526: use $TRASH_DIRECTORY to specify the path of GIT_TRACE log fileLibravatar SZEDER Gábor1-1/+1
The test 'fetch --recurse-submodules -j2 has the same output behaviour' in 't5526-fetch-submodules.sh' fails when the test script is run with '-x' tracing (and using a shell other than a Bash version supporting BASH_XTRACEFD). The reason of that failure is the following command: GIT_TRACE=$(pwd)/../trace.out git fetch <...> 2>../actual.err because the trace of executing 'pwd' in the command substitution ends up in 'actual.err' as well, throwing off the subsequent 'test_i18ncmp'. Use $TRASH_DIRECTORY to specify the path of the GIT_TRACE log file instead of $(pwd), so the command's stderr remains free from tracing output.

2017-10-17implement fetching of moved submodulesLibravatar Heiko Voigt1-0/+35
We store the changed submodules paths to calculate which submodule needs fetching. This does not work for moved submodules since their paths do not stay the same in case of a moved submodules. In case of new submodules we do not have a path in the current checkout, since they just appeared in this fetch. It is more general to collect the submodule names for changes instead of their paths to include the above cases. If we do not have a configuration for a gitlink we rely on constructing a default name from the path if a git repository can be found at its path. We skip non-configured gitlinks whose default name collides with a configured one. With the change described above we implement 'on-demand' fetching of changes in moved submodules.

2016-09-01submodule: avoid auto-discovery in prepare_submodule_repo_env()Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+35
The function is used to set up the environment variable used in a subprocess we spawn in a submodule directory. The callers set up a child_process structure, find the working tree path of one submodule and set .dir field to it, and then use start_command() API to spawn the subprocess like "status", "fetch", etc. When this happens, we expect that the ".git" (either a directory or a gitfile that points at the real location) in the current working directory of the subprocess MUST be the repository for the submodule. If this ".git" thing is a corrupt repository, however, because prepare_submodule_repo_env() unsets GIT_DIR and GIT_WORK_TREE, the subprocess will see ".git", thinks it is not a repository, and attempt to find one by going up, likely to end up in finding the repository of the superproject. In some codepaths, this will cause a command run with the "--recurse-submodules" option to recurse forever. By exporting GIT_DIR=.git, disable the auto-discovery logic in the subprocess, which would instead stop it and report an error. The test illustrates existing problems in a few callsites of this function. Without this fix, "git fetch --recurse-submodules", "git status" and "git diff" keep recursing forever.

2011-03-09fetch/pull: recurse into submodules when necessaryLibravatar Jens Lehmann1-0/+109
To be able to access all commits of populated submodules referenced by the superproject it is sufficient to only then let "git fetch" recurse into a submodule when the new commits fetched in the superproject record new commits for it. Having these commits present is extremely useful when using the "--submodule" option to "git diff" (which is what "git gui" and "gitk" do since 1.6.6), as all submodule commits needed for creating a descriptive output can be accessed. Also merging submodule commits (added in 1.7.3) depends on the submodule commits in question being present to work. Last but not least this enables disconnected operation when using submodules, as all commits necessary for a successful "git submodule update -N" will have been fetched automatically. So we choose this mode as the default for fetch and pull. Before a new or changed ref from upstream is updated in update_local_ref() "git rev-list <new-sha1> --not --branches --remotes" is used to determine all newly fetched commits. These are then walked and diffed against their parent(s) to see if a submodule has been changed. If that is the case, its path is stored to be fetched after the superproject fetch is completed. Using the "--recurse-submodules" or the "--no-recurse-submodules" option disables the examination of the fetched refs because the result will be ignored anyway. There is currently no infrastructure for storing deleted and new submodules in the .git directory of the superproject. That's why fetch and pull for now only fetch submodules that are already checked out and are not renamed. In t7403 the "--no-recurse-submodules" argument had to be added to "git pull" to avoid failure because of the moved upstream submodule repo.

The new boolean "fetchRecurseSubmodules" config option controls the behavior for "git fetch" and "git pull". It specifies if these commands should recurse into submodules and fetch new commits there too and can be set separately for each submodule. In the .gitmodules file "submodule.<name>.fetchRecurseSubmodules" entries are read before looking for them in .git/config. Thus settings found in .git/config will override those from .gitmodules, thereby allowing the user to ignore settings given by the remote side while also letting upstream set reasonable defaults for those users who don't have special needs. This configuration can be overridden by the command line option "--[no-]recurse-submodules" of "git fetch" and "git pull".

2010-11-12fetch/pull: Add the --recurse-submodules optionLibravatar Jens Lehmann1-0/+109
Until now you had to call "git submodule update" (without -N|--no-fetch option) or something like "git submodule foreach git fetch" to fetch new commits in populated submodules from their remote. This could lead to "(commits not present)" messages in the output of "git diff --submodule" (which is used by "git gui" and "gitk") after fetching or pulling new commits in the superproject and is an obstacle for implementing recursive checkout of submodules. Also "git submodule update" cannot fetch changes when disconnected, so it was very easy to forget to fetch the submodule changes before disconnecting only to discover later that they are needed. This patch adds the "--recurse-submodules" option to recursively fetch each populated submodule from the url configured in the .git/config of the submodule at the end of each "git fetch" or during "git pull" in the superproject. The submodule paths are taken from the index. The hidden option "--submodule-prefix" is added to "git fetch" to be able to print out the full paths of nested submodules.
