2012-04-05add--interactive: ignore unmerged entries in patch modeLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+26
When "add -p" sees an unmerged entry, it shows the combined diff and then immediately skips the hunk. This can be confusing in a variety of ways, depending on whether there are other changes to stage (in which case you get the superfluous combined diff output in between other hunks) or not (in which case you get the combined diff and the program exits immediately, rather than seeing "No changes"). The current behavior was not planned, and is just what the implementation happens to do. Instead, let's explicitly remove unmerged entries from our list of modified files, and print a warning that we are ignoring them. We can cheaply find which entries are unmerged by adding "--raw" output to the "diff-files --numstat" we already run. There is one non-obvious thing we must change when parsing this combined output. Before this patch, when we saw a numstat line for a file that did not have index changes, we would create a new record with 'unchanged' in the 'INDEX' field. Because "--raw" comes before "--numstat", we must move this special-case down to the raw-line case (and it is sufficient to move it rather than handle it in both places, since any file which has a --numstat will also have a --raw entry).

When the user exited editor without editing the commit log template given by "git commit -t <template>", the commit was aborted (correct) with an error message that said "due to empty commit message" (incorrect).

2012-03-16Merge "two fixes for fast-import's 'ls' command" from JonathanLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+39
Andrew Sayers noticed that the svn-fe | git fast-import pipeline mishandles a subversion history that copies the root directory to a sub-directory (e.g. doing `svn cp . trunk` to standardise your layout). As David Barr explained, the bug arises when the following command is sent to git fast-import: 'ls' SP ':1' SP LF Instead of reading back what is at the root of r1, it unconditionally reports the path as missing. After sleeping on it, here are two patches for 'maint'. One plugs a memory leak. The other ensures that trying to pass an empty path to the 'ls' command results in an error message that can help the frontend author instead of the silently broken conversion Andrew found. Then we can carefully add 'ls ""' support in 1.7.11. * commit 'refs/pull-request-tags/jn/maint-fast-import-empty-ls': fast-import: don't allow 'ls' of path with empty components fast-import: leakfix for 'ls' of dirty trees
2012-03-15notes-merge: Don't remove .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE; it may be the user's cwdLibravatar Johan Herland1-4/+4
When a manual notes merge is committed or aborted, we need to remove the temporary worktree at .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE. However, removing the entire directory is not good if the user ran the 'git notes merge --commit/--abort' from within that directory. On Windows, the directory removal would simply fail, while on POSIX systems, users would suddenly find themselves in an invalid current directory. Therefore, instead of deleting the entire directory, we delete everything _within_ the directory, and leave the (empty) directory in place. This would cause a subsequent notes merge to abort, complaining about a previous - unfinished - notes merge (due to the presence of .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE), so we also need to adjust this check to only trigger when .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE is non-empty. Finally, adjust the t3310 manual notes merge testcases to correctly handle the existence of an empty .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE directory.

2012-03-15notes-merge: use opendir/readdir instead of using read_directory()Libravatar Johan Herland1-1/+1
notes_merge_commit() only needs to list all entries (non-recursively) under a directory, which can be easily accomplished with opendir/readdir and would be more lightweight than read_directory(). read_directory() is designed to list paths inside a working directory. Using it outside of its scope may lead to undesired effects. Apparently, one of the undesired effects of read_directory() is that it doesn't deal with being given absolute paths. This creates problems for notes_merge_commit() when git_path() returns an absolute path, which happens when the current working directory is in a subdirectory of the .git directory.

2012-03-14diff: tweak a _copy_ of diff_options with word-diffLibravatar Thomas Rast1-1/+1
When using word diff, the code sets the word_regex from various defaults if it was not set already. The problem is that it does this on the original diff_options, which will also be used in subsequent diffs. This means that when the word_regex is not given on the command line, only the first diff for which a setting for word_regex (either from attributes or diff.wordRegex) ever takes effect. This value then propagates to the rest of the diff runs and in particular prevents further attribute lookups.

That is it must not: . contain an empty directory component (e.g. foo//bar is invalid), . end with a directory separator (e.g. foo/ is invalid), . start with a directory separator (e.g. /foo is invalid), Unfortunately the "ls" command accepts these invalid syntaxes and responds by declaring that the indicated path is missing. This is too subtle and causes importers to silently misbehave; better to error out so the operator knows what's happening. The C, R, and M commands already error out for such paths.

2012-03-09t0204: clarify the "observe undefined behaviour" testLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-14/+23
This test asks for an impossible conversion to the system by preparing an UTF-8 translation with characters that cannot be expressed in ISO-8859-1, and then asking the message shown in ISO-8859-1. Even though the behaviour against such a request is undefined, it may be interesting to see what the system does, and the purpose of this test is to see if there are platforms that exhibit behaviour that we haven't seen. The original recognized two known modes of behaviour: - the key used to query the message catalog ("TEST: Old English Runes"), saying "I cannot do that i18n". - impossible characters replaced with ASCII "?", saying "I punt". but they were treated totally differently. The test simply issued an informational message "Your system punts on this one" for the first error mode, while it diagnosed the latter as "Your system is good; you pass!". It turns out that Mac OS X exhibits a third mode of error behaviour, to spew out the raw value stored in the message catalog. The test diagnosed this behaviour as "broken", but it is merely trying to do its best to respond to an impossible request by saying "I punt" in a way that is slightly different from the second one. Update the offending test to make it clear what is (and is not) being tested, update the code structure so that newly discovered error mode can easily be added to it later, and reword the message that comes from a failing case to clarify that it is not the system that is broken when it fails, but merely that the behaviour is not something we have seen.

2012-03-04submodules: refactor computation of relative gitdir pathLibravatar Jens Lehmann1-0/+17
In module_clone() the rel_gitdir variable was computed differently when "git rev-parse --git-dir" returned a relative path than when it returned an absolute path. This is not optimal, as different code paths are used depending on the return value of that command. Fix that by reusing the differing path components computed for setting the core.worktree config setting, which leaves a single code path for setting both instead of having three and makes the code much shorter. This also fixes the bug that in the computation of how many directories have to be traversed up to hit the root directory of the submodule the name of the submodule was used where the path should have been used. This lead to problems after renaming submodules into another directory level. Even though the "(cd $somewhere && pwd)" approach breaks the flexibility of symlinks, that is no issue here as we have to have one relative path pointing from the work tree to the gitdir and another pointing back, which will never work anyway when a symlink along one of those paths is changed because the directory it points to was moved. Also add a test moving a submodule into a deeper directory to catch any future breakage here and to document what has to be done when a submodule needs to be moved until git mv learns to do that. Simply moving it to the new location doesn't work, as the core.worktree and possibly the gitfile setting too will be wrong. So it has to be removed from filesystem and index, then the new location has to be added into the index and the .gitmodules file has to be updated. After that a git submodule update will check out the submodule at the new location. Signed-off-by: Jens Lehmann <Jens.Lehmann@web.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2012-03-04submodules: always use a relative path from gitdir to work treeLibravatar Jens Lehmann1-0/+20
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. To make that work the git directory has the core.worktree configuration set in its config file to point back to the work tree. That core.worktree is an absolute path set by the initial clone of the submodule. A relative path is preferable here because it allows the superproject to be moved around without invalidating that setting, so compute and set that relative path after cloning or reactivating the submodule. This also fixes a bug when moving a submodule around inside the superproject, as the current code forgot to update the setting to the new submodule work tree location. Enhance t7400 to ensure that future versions won't re-add absolute paths by accident and that moving a superproject won't break submodules.

2012-03-04submodules: always use a relative path to gitdirLibravatar Jens Lehmann1-0/+2
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 submodule git directory needs to be cloned because it is not found in .git/modules/<name> the clone command will write an absolute path into the gitfile. When no clone is necessary the git directory will be reactivated by the git-submodule.sh script by writing a relative path into the gitfile. This is inconsistent, as the behavior depends on the submodule having been cloned before into the .git/modules of the superproject. A relative path is preferable here because it allows the superproject to be moved around without invalidating the gitfile. We do that by always writing the relative path into the gitfile, which overwrites the absolute path the clone command may have written there. This is only the first step to make superprojects movable again like they were before the separate-git-dir approach was introduced. The second step is to use a relative path in core.worktree too. Enhance t7400 to ensure that future versions won't re-add absolute paths by accident. While at it also replace an if/else construct evaluating the presence of the 'reference' option with a single line of bash code.

2012-03-04parse-options: typo check for unknown switchesLibravatar René Scharfe1-0/+10
The user specifies a long option but forgets to type the second leading dash, we currently detect and report that fact if its first letter is a valid short option. This is done for safety, to avoid ambiguity between short options (and their arguments) and a long option with a missing dash. This diagnostic message is also helpful for long options whose first letter is not a valid short option, however. Print it in that case, too, as a courtesy.
