2016-11-29submodule add: extend force flag to add existing reposLibravatar Stefan Beller1-0/+14
Currently the force flag in `git submodule add` takes care of possibly ignored files or when a name collision occurs. However there is another situation where submodule add comes in handy: When you already have a gitlink recorded, but no configuration was done (i.e. no .gitmodules file nor any entry in .git/config) and you want to generate these config entries. For this situation allow `git submodule add` to proceed if there is already a submodule at the given path in the index.

2016-06-17tests: use test_i18n* functions to suppress false positivesLibravatar Vasco Almeida1-1/+1
The test functions test_i18ncmp and test_i18ngrep pretend success if run under GETTEXT_POISON. By using those functions to test output which is correctly marked as translatable, enables one to detect if the strings newly marked for translation are from plumbing output. If they are indeed from plumbing, the test would fail, and the string should be unmarked, since it is not seen by users. Thus, it is productive to not have false positives when running the test under GETTEXT_POISON. This commit replaces normal test functions by their i18n aware variants in use-cases know to be correctly marked for translation, suppressing false positives.

2016-05-05submodule deinit: require '--all' instead of '.' for all submodulesLibravatar Stefan Beller1-1/+23
The discussion in [1] pointed out that '.' is a faulty suggestion as there is a corner case where it fails: > "submodule deinit ." may have "worked" in the sense that you would > have at least one path in your tree and avoided this "nothing > matches" most of the time. It would have still failed with the > exactly same error if run in an empty repository, i.e. > > $ E=/var/tmp/x/empty && rm -fr "$E" && mkdir -p "$E" && cd "$E" > $ git init > $ rungit v2.6.6 submodule deinit . > error: pathspec '.' did not match any file(s) known to git. > Did you forget to 'git add'? > $ >file && git add file > $ rungit v2.6.6 submodule deinit . > $ echo $? > 0 So instead of a pathspec add the '--all' option to deinit all submodules and add a test to check for the corner case of an empty repository. The code only needs to learn about the '--all' option and doesn't require further changes as `git submodule--helper list "$@"` will list all submodules when "$@" is empty.

"git submodule update --init --recursive" uses full path to refer to the true location of the repository in the "gitdir:" pointer for nested submodules; the command used to use relative paths. This was reported by Norio Nomura in $gmane/290280.

That > is no longer possible in projects that don't have any submodules at > all. The command will fail with: > > error: pathspec '.' did not match any file(s) known to git. This regression was introduced in 74703a1e4dfc (submodule: rewrite `module_list` shell function in C, 2015-09-02), as we changed the order of checking in new module listing to first check whether it is a gitlin before feeding it to match_pathspec(). It used to be that a pathspec that does not match any path were diagnosed as an error, but the new code complains for a pathspec that does not match any submodule path. Arguably the new behaviour may give us a better diagnosis, but that is inconsistent with the suggestion "deinit" gives, and also this was an unintended accident. The new behaviour hopefully can be redesigned and implemented better in future releases, but for now, switch these two checks to restore the same behavior as before. In an empty repository, giving the pathspec '.' will still get the same "did not match" error, but that is the same bug we had before 1.7.0.

2013-09-13reset: handle submodule with trailing slashLibravatar John Keeping1-2/+4
When using tab-completion, a directory path will often end with a trailing slash which currently confuses "git reset" when dealing with submodules. Now that we have parse_pathspec we can easily handle this by simply adding the PATHSPEC_STRIP_SUBMODULE_SLASH_CHEAP flag. To do this, we need to move the read_cache() call before the parse_pathspec() call. All of the existing paths through cmd_reset() that do not die early already call read_cache() at some point, so there is no performance impact to doing this in the common case.

2013-08-06rm: delete .gitmodules entry of submodules removed from the work treeLibravatar Jens Lehmann1-10/+4
Currently using "git rm" on a submodule removes the submodule's work tree from that of the superproject and the gitlink from the index. But the submodule's section in .gitmodules is left untouched, which is a leftover of the now removed submodule and might irritate users (as opposed to the setting in .git/config, this must stay as a reminder that the user showed interest in this submodule so it will be repopulated later when an older commit is checked out). Let "git rm" help the user by not only removing the submodule from the work tree but by also removing the "submodule.<submodule name>" section from the .gitmodules file and stage both. This doesn't happen when the "--cached" option is used, as it would modify the work tree. This also silently does nothing when no .gitmodules file is found and only issues a warning when it doesn't have a section for this submodule. This is because the user might just use plain gitlinks without the .gitmodules file or has already removed the section by hand before issuing the "git rm" command (in which case the warning reminds him that rm would have done that for him). Only when .gitmodules is found and contains merge conflicts the rm command will fail and tell the user to resolve the conflict before trying again. Also extend the man page to inform the user about this new feature. While at it promote the submodule sub-section to a chapter as it made not much sense under "REMOVING FILES THAT HAVE DISAPPEARED FROM THE FILESYSTEM". In t7610 three uses of "git rm submod" had to be replaced with "git rm --cached submod" because that test expects .gitmodules and the work tree to stay untouched. Also in t7400 the tests for the remaining settings in the .gitmodules file had to be changed to assert that these settings are missing.

The output of "git submodule deinit sub" of a populated submodule prints rm 'sub' as the first line unless used with the -f option. The "rm 'sub'" line is exactly the same output the user gets when using "git rm sub" (because that command is used with the --dry-run option under the hood to determine if the submodule is clean), which can easily lead to the false impression that the submodule would be permanently removed. Also users might be confused that the "rm 'submodule'" line won't show up when the -f option is used, as the test is skipped in this case. Silence the "rm 'submodule'" output by using the --quiet option for "git rm" and always print Cleared directory 'submodule' instead as the first output line. This line is printed as long as the directory exists, no matter if empty or not. Also extend the tests in t7400 to make sure the "Cleared directory" line is printed correctly.

But currently there is no easy way he could tell git he does not care about a submodule anymore and wants to get rid of his local work tree (except he knows a lot about submodule internals and removes the "submodule.$name.url" setting from .git/config together with the work tree himself). Help those users by providing a 'deinit' command. This removes the whole submodule.<name> section from .git/config (either for the given submodule(s) or for all those which have been initialized if '.' is used) together with their work tree. Fail if the current work tree contains modifications (unless forced), but don't complain when either the work tree is already removed or no settings are found in .git/config.

When adding a new submodule it can happen that .git/modules/<name> already contains a submodule repo, e.g. when a submodule is removed from the work tree and another submodule is added at the same path. But then the work tree of the submodule will be populated using the existing repository and not the one the user provided, which results in an incorrect work tree. On the other hand the user might reactivate a submodule removed earlier, then reusing that .git directory is the Right Thing to do. As git can't decide what is the case, error out and tell the user she should use either use a different name for the submodule with the "--name" option or can reuse the .git directory for the newly added submodule by providing the --force option (which only makes sense when the upstream matches, so the error message lists all remotes of .git/modules/<name>). In one test in t7406 the --force option had to be added to "git submodule add", as that test re-adds a formerly removed submodule.

2012-09-29Teach "git submodule add" the --name optionLibravatar Jens Lehmann1-0/+45
"git submodule add" initializes the name of a submodule to its path. This was ok as long as the .git directory lived inside the submodule's work tree, but since 1.7.8 it is stored in the .git/modules/<name> directory of the superproject, making the submodule name survive the removal of the submodule's work tree. This leads to problems when the user tries to add a different submodule at the same path - and thus the same name - later, as that will happily try to restore the submodule from the old repository instead of the one the user specified and will lead to a checkout of the wrong repository. Add the new "--name" option to let the user provide a name for the submodule. This enables the user to solve this conflict without having to remove .git/modules/<name> by hand (which is no viable solution as it makes it impossible to checkout a commit that records the old submodule and populate it, as that will still check out the new submodule for the same reason). To achieve that the submodule's name is added to the parameter list of the module_clone() helper function. This makes it possible to remove the call of module_name() there because both callers of module_clone() already know the name and can provide it as argument number two.

2012-09-25submodule: if $command was not matched, don't parse other argsLibravatar Ramkumar Ramachandra1-2/+2
"git submodule" command DWIMs the command line and assumes a unspecified action word for 'status' action. This is a UI mistake that leads to a confusing behaviour. A mistyped command name is instead treated as a request for 'status' of the submodule with that name, e.g. $ git submodule show error: pathspec 'show' did not match any file(s) known to git. Did you forget to 'git add'? Stop DWIMming an unknown or mistyped subcommand name as pathspec given to unspelled "status" subcommand. "git submodule" without any argument is still interpreted as "git submodule status", but its value is questionable. Adjust t7400 to match, and stop advertising the default subcommand being 'status' which does not help much in practice, other than promoting laziness and confusion.
