2009-03-22Use prerequisite tags to skip tests that depend on symbolic linksLibravatar Johannes Sixt1-1/+1
Many tests depend on that symbolic links work. This introduces a check that sets the prerequisite tag SYMLINKS if the file system supports symbolic links. Since so many tests have to check for this prerequisite, we do the check in test-lib.sh, so that we don't need to repeat the test in many scripts. To check for 'ln -s' failures, you can use a FAT partition on Linux: $ mkdosfs -C git-on-fat 1000000 $ sudo mount -o loop,uid=j6t,gid=users,shortname=winnt git-on-fat /mnt Clone git to /mnt and $ GIT_SKIP_TESTS='t0001.1[34] t0010 t1301 t403[34] t4129.[47] t5701.7 t7701.3 t9100 t9101.26 t9119 t9124.[67] t9200.10 t9600.6' \ make test (These additionally skipped tests depend on POSIX permissions that FAT on Linux does not provide.)

2009-02-27git-svn: disable broken symlink workaround by defaultLibravatar Eric Wong1-0/+10
Even though this will break things for some extremely rare repositories used by broken Windows clients, it's probably not worth enabling this by default as it has negatively affected many more users than it has helped from what we've seen so far. The extremely rare repositories that have broken symlinks in them will be silently corrupted in import; but users can still reenable this option and restart the import.

2009-02-11git-svn: allow disabling expensive broken symlink checksLibravatar Eric Wong1-0/+10
Since dbc6c74d0858d77e61e092a48d467e725211f8e9, git-svn has had an expensive check for broken symlinks that exist in some repositories. This leads to a heavy performance hit on repositories with many empty blobs that are not supposed to be symlinks. The workaround is enabled by default; and may be disabled via: git config svn.brokenSymlinkWorkaround false Reported by Markus Heidelberg. Signed-off-by: Eric Wong <normalperson@yhbt.net>
2009-01-18git-svn: handle empty files marked as symlinks in SVNLibravatar Eric Wong1-0/+90
Broken SVN clients generate empty files with the svn:special set to '*'. This attempts to denote a symlink pointing to a file with an empty path (""), which cannot be generated on a POSIX system. Thus, we mimic the behavior of svn(1) and create a zero-byte file in our tree. Signed-off-by: Eric Wong <normalperson@yhbt.net>
