2015-05-27t9001: write $HOME/, not ~/, to help shells without tilde expansionLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
Even though it is in POSIX, we do not have to use it, only to hurt shells that may lack the support. The .mailrc test tries to define an alias in .mailrc in the home directory by shell redirection, and then tries to see ~/.mailrc in config is tilde-expanded by Git without help from shell. So the creation should become $HOME/ to be portable for shells that may lack tilde expansion but the reference should be done as "~/.mailrc". Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2015-03-25t9001: drop save_confirm helperLibravatar Jeff King1-10/+5
The idea of this helper is that we want to save the current value of a config variable and then restore it again after the test completes. However, there's no point in actually saving the value; it should always be restored to the string "never" (which you can confirm by instrumenting save_confirm to print the value it finds). Let's just replace it with a single test_when_finished call. Suggested-by: SZEDER Gábor <szeder@ira.uka.de> Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2015-03-20t9001: use test_when_finishedLibravatar Jeff King1-20/+10
The confirmation tests in t9001 all save the value of sendemail.confirm, do something to it, then restore it at the end, in a way that breaks the &&-chain (they are not wrong, because they save the $? value, but it fools --chain-lint). Instead, they can all use test_when_finished, and we can even make the code simpler by factoring out the shared lines. Note that we can _almost_ use test_config here, except that: 1. We do not restore the config with test_unconfig, but by setting it back to some prior value. 2. We are not always setting a config variable. Sometimes the change to be undone is unsetting it entirely. We could teach test_config to handle these cases, but it's not worth the complexity for a single call-site.

2014-11-25git-send-email: add --transfer-encoding optionLibravatar Paolo Bonzini1-0/+157
The thread at http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/257392 details problems when applying patches with "git am" in a repository with CRLF line endings. In the example in the thread, the repository originated from "git-svn" so it is not possible to use core.eol and friends on it. Right now, the best option is to use "git am --keep-cr". However, when a patch create new files, the patch application process will reject the new file because it finds a "/dev/null\r" string instead of "/dev/null". The problem is that SMTP transport is CRLF-unsafe. Sending a patch by email is the same as passing it through "dos2unix | unix2dos". The newly introduced CRLFs are normally transparent because git-am strips them. The keepcr=true setting preserves them, but it is mostly working by chance and it would be very problematic to have a "git am" workflow in a repository with mixed LF and CRLF line endings. The MIME solution to this is the quoted-printable transfer enconding. This is not something that we want to enable by default, since it makes received emails horrible to look at. However, it is a very good match for projects that store CRLF line endings in the repository. The only disadvantage of quoted-printable is that quoted-printable patches fail to apply if the maintainer uses "git am --keep-cr". This is because the decoded patch will have two carriage returns at the end of the line. Therefore, add support for base64 transfer encoding too, which makes received emails downright impossible to look at outside a MUA, but really just works. The patch covers all bases, including users that still live in the late 80s, by also providing a 7bit content transfer encoding that refuses to send emails with non-ASCII character in them. And finally, "8bit" will add a Content-Transfer-Encoding header but otherwise do nothing. Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2014-06-10t9001: avoid non-portable '\n' with sedLibravatar Torsten Bögershausen1-1/+1
t9001 used a '\n' in a sed expression to split one line into two lines, but the usage of '\n' in the "replacement string" is not portable. The '\n' can be used to match a newline in the "pattern space", but otherwise the meaning of '\n' is unspecified in POSIX. - Gnu versions of sed will treat '\n' as a newline character. - Other versions of sed (like /usr/bin/sed under Mac OS X) simply ignore the '\' before the 'n', treating '\n' as 'n'. For reference see: pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/sed.html http://www.gnu.org/software/sed/manual/sed.html As the test already requires perl as a prerequisite, use perl instead of sed.

2012-11-26send-email: avoid questions when user has an identLibravatar Felipe Contreras1-3/+2
Currently we keep getting questions even when the user has properly configured his full name and password: Who should the emails appear to be from? [Felipe Contreras <felipe.contreras@gmail.com>] And once a question pops up, other questions are turned on. This is annoying. The reason it's safe to avoid this question is because currently the script fails completely when the author (or committer) is not correct, so we won't even be reaching this point in the code. The scenarios, and the current situation: 1) No information at all, no fully qualified domain name fatal: empty ident name (for <felipec@nysa.(none)>) not allowed 2) Only full name fatal: unable to auto-detect email address (got 'felipec@nysa.(none)') 3) Full name + fqdm Who should the emails appear to be from? [Felipe Contreras <felipec@nysa.felipec.org>] 4) Full name + EMAIL Who should the emails appear to be from? [Felipe Contreras <felipe.contreras@gmail.com>] 5) User configured 6) GIT_COMMITTER 7) GIT_AUTHOR All these are the same as 4) After this patch: 1) 2) won't change: git send-email would still die 4) 5) 6) 7) will change: git send-email won't ask the user This is good, that's what we would expect, because the identity is explicit. 3) will change: git send-email won't ask the user This is bad, because we will try with an address such as 'felipec@nysa.felipec.org', which is most likely not what the user wants, but the user will get warned by default (confirm=auto), and if not, most likely the sending won't work, which the user would readily note and fix. The worst possible scenario is that such mail address does work, and the user sends an email from that address unintentionally, when in fact the user expected to correct that address in the prompt. This is a very, very, very unlikely scenario, with many dependencies: 1) No configured user.name/user.email 2) No specified $EMAIL 3) No configured sendemail.from 4) No specified --from argument 5) A fully qualified domain name 6) A full name in the geckos field 7) A sendmail configuration that allows sending from this domain name 8) confirm=never, or 8.1) confirm configuration not hitting, or 8.2) Getting the error, not being aware of it 9) The user expecting to correct this address in the prompt In a more likely scenario where 7) is not the case (can't send from nysa.felipec.org), the user will simply see the mail was not sent properly, and fix the problem. The much more likely scenario though, is where 5) is not the case (nysa.(none)), and git send-email will fail right away like it does now. So the likelihood of this affecting anybody seriously is very very slim, and the chances of this affecting somebody slightly are still very small. The vast majority, if not all, of git users won't be affected negatively, and a lot will benefit from this.

2012-07-31send-email: improve RFC2047 quote parsingLibravatar Thomas Rast1-0/+13
The RFC2047 unquoting, used to parse email addresses in From and Cc headers, is broken in several ways: * It erroneously substitutes ' ' for '_' in *the whole* header, even outside the quoted field. [Noticed by Christoph.] * It is too liberal in its matching, and happily matches the start of one quoted chunk against the end of another, or even just something that looks like such an end. [Noticed by Junio.] * It fundamentally cannot cope with encodings that are not a superset of ASCII, nor several (incompatible) encodings in the same header. This patch fixes the first two by doing a more careful decoding of the outer quoting (e.g. "=AB" to represent an octet whose value is 0xAB). Fixing the fundamental issues is left for a future, more intrusive, patch.

2011-10-14send-email: Fix %config_path_settings handlingLibravatar Cord Seele1-0/+28
cec5dae (use new Git::config_path() for aliasesfile, 2011-09-30) broke the expansion of aliases. This was caused by treating %config_path_settings, newly introduced in said patch, like %config_bool_settings instead of like %config_settings. Copy from %config_settings, making it more readable. While at it add basic test for expansion of aliases, and for path expansion, which would catch this error. Nb. there were a few issues that were responsible for this error: 1. %config_bool_settings and %config_settings despite similar name have different semantic. %config_bool_settings values are arrays where the first element is (reference to) the variable to set, and second element is default value... which admittedly is a bit cryptic. More readable if more verbose option would be to use hash reference, e.g.: my %config_bool_settings = ( "thread" => { variable => \$thread, default => 1}, [...] %config_settings values are either either reference to scalar variable or reference to array. In second case it means that option (or config option) is multi-valued. BTW. this is similar to what Getopt::Long does. 2. In cec5dae (use new Git::config_path() for aliasesfile, 2011-09-30) the setting "aliasesfile" was moved from %config_settings to newly introduced %config_path_settings. But the loop that parses settings from %config_path_settings was copy'n'pasted *wrongly* from %config_bool_settings instead of from %config_settings. It looks like cec5dae author cargo-culted this change... 3. 994d6c6 (send-email: address expansion for common mailers, 2006-05-14) didn't add test for alias expansion to t9001-send-email.sh Signed-off-by: Cord Seele <cowose@gmail.com> Tested-by: Michael J Gruber <git@drmicha.warpmail.net> Signed-off-by: Jakub Narebski <jnareb@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

The '--no-' prefix (as in --no-chain-reply-to) for boolean options is not supported in Getopt::Long version 2.32 which was released with Perl 5.8.0. This version only supports '--no' as in '--nochain-reply-to'. More recent versions of Getopt::Long, such as version 2.34, support either prefix. So use the older form in the tests.

2010-11-12git-send-email.perl: make initial In-Reply-To apply only to first emailLibravatar Antonio Ospite1-1/+3
When an initial --in-reply-to is supplied, make it apply only to the first message; --[no-]chain-reply-to setting are honored by second and subsequent messages; this is also how the git-format-patch option with the same name behaves. Moreover, when $initial_reply_to is asked to the user interactively it is asked as the "Message-ID to be used as In-Reply-To for the _first_ email", this makes the user think that the second and subsequent patches are not using it but are considered as replies to the first message or chained according to the --[no-]chain-reply setting. Look at the v2 series in the illustration to see what the new behavior ensures: (before the patch) | (after the patch) [PATCH 0/2] Here is what I did... | [PATCH 0/2] Here is what I did... [PATCH 1/2] Clean up and tests | [PATCH 1/2] Clean up and tests [PATCH 2/2] Implementation | [PATCH 2/2] Implementation [PATCH v2 0/3] Here is a reroll | [PATCH v2 0/3] Here is a reroll [PATCH v2 1/3] Clean up | [PATCH v2 1/3] Clean up [PATCH v2 2/3] New tests | [PATCH v2 2/3] New tests [PATCH v2 3/3] Implementation | [PATCH v2 3/3] Implementation This is the typical behaviour we want when we send a series with cover letter in reply to some discussion, the new patch series should appear as a separate subtree in the discussion. Also update the documentation on --in-reply-to to describe the new behavior. Signed-off-by: Antonio Ospite <ospite@studenti.unina.it> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2010-11-05t9001: send-email interation with --in-reply-to and --chain-reply-toLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+41
1. When --in-reply-to gives $reply_to, the first one becomes a reply to that message, with or without --chain-reply-to. 2. When --chain-reply-to is in effect, all the messages are strung together to form a single chain. The first message may be in reply to the $reply_to given by --in-reply-to command line option (see previous), or the root of the discussion thread. The second one is a response to the first one, and the third one is a response to the second one, etc. 3. When --chain-reply-to is not in effect: a. When --in-reply-to is used, too, the second and the subsequent ones become replies to $reply_to. Together with the first rule, all messages become replies to $reply_to given by --in-reply-to. b. When --in-reply-to is not used, presumably the second and subsequent ones become replies to the first one, which would be the root. The documentation is reasonably clear about the 1., 2. and 3a. above, I think, even though I do not think 3b. is clearly specified. The two tests added by this patch at least documents what happens between these two options. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
