This works in both bash and dash: $ bash -c 'VAR=1 env' | grep VAR VAR=1 $ dash -c 'VAR=1 env' | grep VAR VAR=1 But environment variables assigned this way are not necessarily propagated through a function in POSIX compliant shells: $ bash -c 'f() { "$@" }; VAR=1 f "env"' | grep VAR VAR=1 $ dash -c 'f() { "$@" }; VAR=1 f "env"' | grep VAR Fix constructs like this, in particular, setting variables through test_must_fail.

2012-02-26git-p4: fix submit regression with clientSpec and subdir cloneLibravatar Pete Wyckoff1-11/+131
When the --use-client-spec is given to clone, and the clone path is a subset of the full tree as specified in the client, future submits will go to the wrong place. Factor out getClientSpec() so both clone/sync and submit can use it. Introduce getClientRoot() that is needed for the client spec case, and use it instead of p4Where(). Test the five possible submit behaviors (add, modify, rename, copy, delete).

2012-02-19gitweb: Fix 'grep' search for multiple matches in fileLibravatar Jakub Narebski1-0/+39
Commit ff7f218 (gitweb: Fix file links in "grep" search, 2012-01-05), added $file_href variable, to reduce duplication and have the fix applied in single place. Unfortunately it made variable defined inside the loop, not taking into account the fact that $file_href was set only if file changed. Therefore for files with multiple matches $file_href was undefined for second and subsequent matches. Fix this bug by moving $file_href declaration outside loop. Adds tests for almost all forms of sarch in gitweb, which were missing from testuite. Note that it only tests if there are no warnings, and it doesn't check that gitweb finds what it should find.

2012-02-13do not override receive-pack errorsLibravatar Clemens Buchacher1-4/+18
Receive runs rev-list --verify-objects in order to detect missing objects. However, such errors are ignored and overridden later. Instead, consequently ignore all update commands for which an error has already been detected. Some tests in t5504 are obsoleted by this change, because invalid objects are detected even if fsck is not enabled. Instead, they now test for different error messages depending on whether or not fsck is turned on. A better fix would be to force a corruption that will be detected by fsck but not by rev-list.

2012-02-08tag: do not show non-tag contents with "-n"Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+13
"git tag -n" did not check the type of the object it is reading the top n lines from. At least, avoid showing the beginning of trees and blobs when dealing with lightweight tags that point at them. As the payload of a tag and a commit look similar in that they both start with a header block, which is skipped for the purpose of "-n" output, followed by human readable text, allow the message of commit objects to be shown just like the contents of tag objects. This avoids regression for people who have been using "tag -n" to show the log messages of commits that are pointed at by lightweight tags. Test script is from Jeff King.

2012-02-07commit: ignore intent-to-add entries instead of refusingLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-3/+5
Originally, "git add -N" was introduced to help users from forgetting to add new files to the index before they ran "git commit -a". As an attempt to help them further so that they do not forget to say "-a", "git commit" to commit the index as-is was taught to error out, reminding the user that they may have forgotten to add the final contents of the paths before running the command. This turned out to be a false "safety" that is useless. If the user made changes to already tracked paths and paths added with "git add -N", and then ran "git add" to register the final contents of the paths added with "git add -N", "git commit" will happily create a commit out of the index, without including the local changes made to the already tracked paths. It was not a useful "safety" measure to prevent "forgetful" mistakes from happening. It turns out that this behaviour is not just a useless false "safety", but actively hurts use cases of "git add -N" that were discovered later and have become popular, namely, to tell Git to be aware of these paths added by "git add -N", so that commands like "git status" and "git diff" would include them in their output, even though the user is not interested in including them in the next commit they are going to make. Fix this ancient UI mistake, and instead make a commit from the index ignoring the paths added by "git add -N" without adding real contents.

2012-02-05branch --edit-description: protect against mistyped branch nameLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-4/+37
It is very easy to mistype the branch name when editing its description, e.g. $ git checkout -b my-topic master : work work work : now we are at a good point to switch working something else $ git checkout master : ah, let's write it down before we forget what we were doing $ git branch --edit-description my-tpoic The command does not notice that branch 'my-tpoic' does not exist. It is not lost (it becomes description of an unborn my-tpoic branch), but is not very useful. So detect such a case and error out to reduce the grief factor from this common mistake. This incidentally also errors out --edit-description when the HEAD points at an unborn branch (immediately after "init", or "checkout --orphan"), because at that point, you do not even have any commit that is part of your history and there is no point in describing how this particular branch is different from the branch it forked off of, which is the useful bit of information the branch description is designed to capture. We may want to special case the unborn case later, but that is outside the scope of this patch to prevent more common mistakes before 1.7.9 series gains too much widespread use.

2012-02-05merge: do not create a signed tag merge under --ff-only optionLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+13
Starting at release v1.7.9, if you ask to merge a signed tag, "git merge" always creates a merge commit, even when the tag points at a commit that happens to be a descendant of your current commit. Unfortunately, this interacts rather badly for people who use --ff-only to make sure that their branch is free of local developments. It used to be possible to say: $ git checkout -b frotz v1.7.9~30 $ git merge --ff-only v1.7.9 and expect that the resulting tip of frotz branch matches v1.7.9^0 (aka the commit tagged as v1.7.9), but this fails with the updated Git with: fatal: Not possible to fast-forward, aborting. because a merge that merges v1.7.9 tag to v1.7.9~30 cannot be created by fast forwarding. We could teach users that now they have to do $ git merge --ff-only v1.7.9^0 but it is far more pleasant for users if we DWIMmed this ourselves. When an integrator pulls in a topic from a lieutenant via a signed tag, even when the work done by the lieutenant happens to fast-forward, the integrator wants to have a merge record, so the integrator will not be asking for --ff-only when running "git pull" in such a case. Therefore, this change should not regress the support for the use case v1.7.9 wanted to add. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2012-02-03parse_date(): '@' prefix forces git-timestampLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+23
The only place that the issue this series addresses was observed where we read "cat-file commit" output and put it in GIT_AUTHOR_DATE in order to replay a commit with an ancient timestamp. With the previous patch alone, "git commit --date='20100917 +0900'" can be misinterpreted to mean an ancient timestamp, not September in year 2010. Guard this codepath by requring an extra '@' in front of the raw git timestamp on the parsing side. This of course needs to be compensated by updating get_author_ident_from_commit and the code for "git commit --amend" to prepend '@' to the string read from the existing commit in the GIT_AUTHOR_DATE environment variable.

2012-02-03tests: add write_script helper functionLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+9
Many of the scripts in the test suite write small helper shell scripts to disk. It's best if these shell scripts start with "#!$SHELL_PATH" rather than "#!/bin/sh", because /bin/sh on some platforms is too buggy to be used. However, it can be cumbersome to expand $SHELL_PATH, because the usual recipe for writing a script is: cat >foo.sh <<-\EOF #!/bin/sh echo my arguments are "$@" EOF To expand $SHELL_PATH, you have to either interpolate the here-doc (which would require quoting "\$@"), or split the creation into two commands (interpolating the $SHELL_PATH line, but not the rest of the script). Let's provide a helper function that makes that less syntactically painful. While we're at it, this helper can also take care of the "chmod +x" that typically comes after the creation of such a script, saving the caller a line.

2012-02-02standardize and improve lookup rules for external local reposLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+100
When you specify a local repository on the command line of clone, ls-remote, upload-pack, receive-pack, or upload-archive, or in a request to git-daemon, we perform a little bit of lookup magic, doing things like looking in working trees for .git directories and appending ".git" for bare repos. For clone, this magic happens in get_repo_path. For everything else, it happens in enter_repo. In both cases, there are some ambiguous or confusing cases that aren't handled well, and there is one case that is not handled the same by both methods. This patch tries to provide (and test!) standard, sensible lookup rules for both code paths. The intended changes are: 1. When looking up "foo", we have always preferred a working tree "foo" (containing "foo/.git" over the bare "foo.git". But we did not prefer a bare "foo" over "foo.git". With this patch, we do so. 2. We would select directories that existed but didn't actually look like git repositories. With this patch, we make sure a selected directory looks like a git repo. Not only is this more sensible in general, but it will help anybody who is negatively affected by change (1) negatively (e.g., if they had "foo.git" next to its separate work tree "foo", and expect to keep finding "foo.git" when they reference "foo"). 3. The enter_repo code path would, given "foo", look for "foo.git/.git" (i.e., do the ".git" append magic even for a repo with working tree). The clone code path did not; with this patch, they now behave the same. In the unlikely case of a working tree overlaying a bare repo (i.e., a ".git" directory _inside_ a bare repo), we continue to treat it as a working tree (prefering the "inner" .git over the bare repo). This is mainly because the combination seems nonsensical, and I'd rather stick with existing behavior on the off chance that somebody is relying on it.

2012-02-02grep: respect diff attributes for binary-nessLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+24
There is currently no way for users to tell git-grep that a particular path is or is not a binary file; instead, grep always relies on its auto-detection (or the user specifying "-a" to treat all binary-looking files like text). This patch teaches git-grep to use the same attribute lookup that is used by git-diff. We could add a new "grep" flag, but that is unnecessarily complex and unlikely to be useful. Despite the name, the "-diff" attribute (or "diff=foo" and the associated diff.foo.binary config option) are really about describing the contents of the path. It's simply historical that diff was the only thing that cared about these attributes in the past. And if this simple approach turns out to be insufficient, we still have a backwards-compatible path forward: we can add a separate "grep" attribute, and fall back to respecting "diff" if it is unset.

2012-01-31request-pull: explicitly ask tags/$name to be pulledLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-5/+1
When asking for a tag to be pulled, disambiguate by leaving tags/ prefix in front of the name of the tag. E.g. ... in the git repository at: git://example.com/git/git.git/ tags/v1.2.3 for you to fetch changes up to 123456... This way, older versions of "git pull" can be used to respond to such a request more easily, as "git pull $URL v1.2.3" did not DWIM to fetch v1.2.3 tag in older versions. Also this makes it clearer for humans that the pull request is made for a tag and he should anticipate a signed one. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2012-01-24submodule add: fix breakage when re-adding a deep submoduleLibravatar Jens Lehmann1-0/+8
Since recently a submodule with name <name> has its git directory in the .git/modules/<name> directory of the superproject while the work tree contains a gitfile pointing there. When the same submodule is added on a branch where it wasn't present so far (it is not found in the .gitmodules file), the name is not initialized from the path as it should. This leads to a wrong path entered in the gitfile when the .git/modules/<name> directory is found, as this happily uses the - now empty - name. It then always points only a single directory up, even if we have a path deeper in the directory hierarchy. Fix that by initializing the name of the submodule early in module_clone() if module_name() returned an empty name and add a test to catch that bug.

In threaded mode, git-grep emits file breaks (enabled with context, -W and --break) into the accumulation buffers even if they are not required. The output collection thread then uses skip_first_line to skip the first such line in the output, which would otherwise be at the very top. This is wrong when the user also specified -l/-L/-c, in which case every line is relevant. While arguably giving these options together doesn't make any sense, git-grep has always quietly accepted it. So do not skip anything in these cases.

2012-01-20remote-curl: Fix push status report when all branches failLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-0/+28
The protocol between transport-helper.c and remote-curl requires remote-curl to always print a blank line after the push command has run. If the blank line is ommitted, transport-helper kills its container process (the git push the user started) with exit(128) and no message indicating a problem, assuming the helper already printed reasonable error text to the console. However if the remote rejects all branches with "ng" commands in the report-status reply, send-pack terminates with non-zero status, and in turn remote-curl exited with non-zero status before outputting the blank line after the helper status printed by send-pack. No error messages reach the user. This caused users to see the following from git push over HTTP when the remote side's update hook rejected the branch: $ git push http://... master Counting objects: 4, done. Delta compression using up to 6 threads. Compressing objects: 100% (2/2), done. Writing objects: 100% (3/3), 301 bytes, done. Total 3 (delta 0), reused 0 (delta 0) $ Always print a blank line after the send-pack process terminates, ensuring the helper status report (if it was output) will be correctly parsed by the calling transport-helper.c. This ensures the helper doesn't abort before the status report can be shown to the user. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2012-01-19Making pathspec limited log play nicer with --first-parentLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+1
In a topic branch workflow, you often want to find the latest commit that merged a side branch that touched a particular area of the system, so that a new topic branch to work on that area can be forked from that commit. For example, I wanted to find an appropriate fork-point to queue Luke's changes related to git-p4 in contrib/fast-import/. "git log --first-parent" traverses the first-parent chain, and "-m --stat" shows the list of paths touched by commits including merge commits. We could ask the question this way: # What is the latest commit that touched that path? $ git log --first-parent --oneline -m --stat master | sed -e '/^ contrib\/fast-import\/git-p4 /q' | tail The above finds that 8cbfc11 (Merge branch 'pw/p4-view-updates', 2012-01-06) was such a commit. But a more natural way to spell this question is this: $ git log --first-parent --oneline -m --stat -1 master -- \ contrib/fast-import/git-p4 Unfortunately, this does not work. It finds ecb7cf9 (git-p4: rewrite view handling, 2012-01-02). This commit is a part of the merged topic branch and is _not_ on the first-parent path from the 'master': $ git show-branch 8cbfc11 ecb7cf9 ! [8cbfc11] Merge branch 'pw/p4-view-updates' ! [ecb7cf9] git-p4: rewrite view handling -- - [8cbfc11] Merge branch 'pw/p4-view-updates' + [8cbfc11^2] git-p4: view spec documentation ++ [ecb7cf9] git-p4: rewrite view handling The problem is caused by the merge simplification logic when it inspects the merge commit 8cbfc11. In this case, the history leading to the tip of 'master' did not touch git-p4 since 'pw/p4-view-updates' topic forked, and the result of the merge is simply a copy from the tip of the topic branch in the view limited by the given pathspec. The merge simplification logic discards the history on the mainline side of the merge, and pretends as if the sole parent of the merge is its second parent, i.e. the tip of the topic. While this simplification is correct in the general case, it is at least surprising if not outright wrong when the user explicitly asked to show the first-parent history. Here is an attempt to fix this issue, by not allowing us to compare the merge result with anything but the first parent when --first-parent is in effect, to avoid the history traversal veering off to the side branch.
