2011-07-31t7400: fix bogus test failure with symlinked trashLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+4
One of the tests in t7400 fails if the trash directory has a symlink anywhere in its path. E.g.: $ mkdir /tmp/git-test $ mkdir /tmp/git-test/real $ ln -s real /tmp/git-test/link $ ./t7400-submodule-basic --root=/tmp/git-test/real ... # passed all 44 test(s) $ ./t7400-submodule-basic --root=/tmp/git-test/link ... not ok - 41 use superproject as upstream when path is relative and no url is set there The failing test does: git submodule add ../repo relative && ... git submodule sync relative && test "$(git config submodule.relative.url)" = "$submodurl/repo" where $submodurl comes from the $TRASH_DIRECTORY the user gave us. However, git will resolve symlinks when converting the relative path into an absolute one, leading them to be textually different (even though they point to the same directory). Fix this by asking pwd to canonicalize the name of the trash directory for us.

2011-07-24tests: print failed test numbers at the end of the test runLibravatar Jens Lehmann1-1/+13
On modern multi-core processors "make test" is often run in multiple jobs. If one of them fails the test run does stop, but the concurrently running tests finish their run. It is rather easy to find out which test failed by doing a "ls -d t/trash*". But that only works when you don't use the "-i" option to "make test" because you want to get an overview of all failing tests. In that case all thrash directories are deleted end and the information which tests failed is lost. If one or more tests failed, print a list of them before the test summary: failed test(s): t1000 t6500 fixed 0 success 7638 failed 3 broken 49 total 7723 This makes it possible to just run the test suite with -i and collect all failed test scripts at the end for further examination.

2011-06-29git-submodule.sh: preserve stdin for the command spawned by foreachLibravatar Brandon Casey1-2/+2
The user-supplied command spawned by 'submodule foreach' loses its connection to the original standard input. Instead, it is connected to the output of a pipe within the git-submodule script. The user-supplied command supplied to 'submodule foreach' is spawned within a while loop which is being piped into. Due to the way shells implement piping output to a while loop, a subshell is created with its standard input attached to the output of the pipe. This results in all of the commands executed within the while loop to have their stdins modified in the same way, including the user-supplied command. This can cause a problem if the command requires reading from stdin or if it changes its behavior based on whether stdin is a tty or not. For example, this problem was noticed when trying to execute the following: git submodule foreach git shortlog --since=two.weeks.ago which printed a message about entering the first submodule and produced no further output and exited with a status of zero. In this case, shortlog detected that it was not connected to a tty, and since no revision was supplied as an argument, it attempted to read the list of revisions from standard input. Instead, it slurped up the list of submodules that was being piped to the enclosing while loop and caused that loop to end early without processing the remaining submodules. Work around this behavior by saving the original standard input file descriptor before the while loop, and restoring it when spawning the user-supplied command. This fixes the tests in t7407.

2011-06-29test: skip clean-up when running under --immediate modeLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+10
Some tests try to be too careful about cleaning themselves up and do test_expect_success description ' set-up some test refs and/or configuration && test_when_finished "revert the above changes" && the real test ' Which is nice to make sure that a potential failure would not have unexpected interaction with the next test. This however interferes when "the real test" fails and we want to see what is going on, by running the test with --immediate mode and descending into its trash directory after the test stops. The precondition to run the real test and cause it to fail is all gone after the clean-up procedure defined by test_when_finished is done. Update test_run_ which is the workhorse of running a test script called from test_expect_success and test_expect_failure, so that we do not run clean-up script defined with test_when_finished when a test that is expected to succeed fails under the --immediate mode.

2011-06-19rebase -i -p: include non-first-parent commits in todo listLibravatar Andrew Wong3-3/+29
Consider this graph: D---E (topic, HEAD) / / A---B---C (master) \ F (topic2) and the following three commands: 1. git rebase -i -p A 2. git rebase -i -p --onto F A 3. git rebase -i -p B Currently, (1) and (2) will pick B, D, C, and E onto A and F, respectively. However, (3) will only pick D and E onto B, but not C, which is inconsistent with (1) and (2). As a result, we cannot modify C during the interactive-rebase. The current behavior also creates a bug if we do: 4. git rebase -i -p C In (4), E is never picked. And since interactive-rebase resets "HEAD" to "onto" before picking any commits, D and E are lost after the interactive-rebase. This patch fixes the inconsistency and bug by ensuring that all children of upstream are always picked. This essentially reverts the commit: d80d6bc146232d81f1bb4bc58e5d89263fd228d4 When compiling the todo list, commits reachable from "upstream" should never be skipped under any conditions. Otherwise, we lose the ability to modify them like (3), and create a bug like (4). Two of the tests contain a scenario like (3). Since the new behavior added more commits for picking, these tests need to be updated to account for the additional pick lines. A new test has also been added for (4).

2011-06-17tests: link shell libraries into valgrind directoryLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+7
When we run tests under valgrind, we symlink anything executable that starts with git-* or test-* into a special valgrind bin directory, and then make that our GIT_EXEC_PATH. However, shell libraries like git-sh-setup do not have the executable bit marked, and did not get symlinked. This means that any test looking for shell libraries in our exec-path would fail to find them, even though that is a fine thing to do when testing against a regular git build (or in a git install, for that matter). t2300 demonstrated this problem. The fix is to symlink these shell libraries directly into the valgrind directory. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2011-06-17t/Makefile: pass test opts to valgrind target properlyLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
The valgrind target just reinvokes make with GIT_TEST_OPTS set to "--valgrind". However, it does this using an environment variable, which means GIT_TEST_OPTS in your config.mak would override it, and "make valgrind" would simply run the test suite without valgrind on. Instead, we should pass GIT_TEST_OPTS on the command-line, overriding what's in config.mak, and take care to append to whatever the user has there already.

2011-06-09gitweb: do not misparse nonnumeric content tag files that contain a digitLibravatar Jonathan Nieder1-0/+8
v1.7.6-rc0~27^2~4 (gitweb: Change the way "content tags" ('ctags') are handled, 2011-04-29) tried to make gitweb's tag cloud feature more intuitive for webmasters by checking whether the ctags/<label> under a project's .git dir contains a number (representing the strength of association to <label>) before treating it as one. With that change, after putting '$feature{'ctags'}{'default'} = [1];' in your $GITWEB_CONFIG, you could do echo Linux >.git/ctags/linux and gitweb would treat that as a request to tag the current repository with the Linux tag, instead of the previous behavior of writing an error page embedded in the projects list that triggers error messages from Chromium and Firefox about malformed XML. Unfortunately the pattern (\d+) used to match numbers is too loose, and the "XML declaration allowed only at the start of the document" error can still be experienced if you write "Linux-2.6" in place of "Linux" in the example above.

2011-06-05checkout -b <name>: correctly detect existing branchLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+11
When create a new branch, we fed "refs/heads/<proposed name>" as a string to get_sha1() and expected it to fail when a branch already exists. The right way to check if a ref exists is to check with resolve_ref(). A naïve solution that might appear attractive but does not work is to forbid slashes in get_describe_name() but that will not work. A describe name is is in the form of "ANYTHING-g<short sha1>", and that ANYTHING part comes from a original tag name used in the repository the user ran the describe command. A sick user could have a confusing hierarchical tag whose name is "refs/heads/foobar" (stored as refs/tags/refs/heads/foobar") to generate a describe name "refs/heads/foobar-6-g02ac983", and we should be able to use that name to refer to the object whose name is 02ac983.

2011-05-31diff_tree: disable QUICK optimization with diff filterLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+5
We stop looking for changes early with QUICK, so our diff queue contains only a subset of the changes. However, we don't apply diff filters until later; it will appear at that point as though there are no changes matching our filter, when in reality we simply didn't keep looking for changes long enough. Commit 2cfe8a6 (diff --quiet: disable optimization when --diff-filter=X is used, 2011-03-16) fixes this in some cases by disabling the optimization when a filter is present. However, it only tweaked run_diff_files, missing the similar case in diff_tree. Thus the fix worked only for diffing the working tree and index, but not between trees. Noticed by Yasushi SHOJI.

If you give a zero-length subject prefix to format-patch (e.g., "format-patch --subject-prefix="), we will print the ugly: Subject: [ 1/2] your subject here because we always insert a space between the prefix and numbering.

Brian Gernhardt reported that test 'git grep -E -F -G a\\+b' fails on OS X 10.6.7. This is because I assumed \+ is part of BRE, which isn't true on all platforms. The easiest way to make this test pass is to just update expected output, but that would make the test pointless. Its real purpose is to check whether 'git grep -E -F -G' is different from 'git grep -E -G -F'. To check that, let's change pattern to "a+b*c". This should return different match for -G, -F and -E. I also made two small tweaks to the tests. First, I added path "ab" to all calls to future-proof tests. Second, I updated last two tests to better show that 'git grep -P -E' is different from 'git grep -E -P'.

2011-05-27rebase: write a reflog entry when finishingLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
When we finish a rebase, our detached HEAD is at the final result. We update the original branch ref with this result, and then point the HEAD symbolic ref at the updated branch. We write a reflog for the branch update, but not for the update of HEAD. Because we're already at the final result on the detached HEAD, moving to the branch actually doesn't change our commit sha1 at all. So in that sense, a reflog entry would be pointless. However, humans do read reflogs, and an entry saying "rebase finished: returning to refs/heads/master" can be helpful in understanding what is going on.

2011-05-26format-patch: preserve subject newlines with -kLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
In older versions of git, we used rfc822 header folding to indicate that the original subject line had multiple lines in it. But since a1f6baa (format-patch: wrap long header lines, 2011-02-23), we now use header folding whenever there is a long line. This means that "git am" cannot trust header folding as a sign from format-patch that newlines should be preserved. Instead, format-patch needs to signal more explicitly that the newlines are significant. This patch does so by rfc2047-encoding the newlines in the subject line. No changes are needed on the "git am" end; it already decodes the newlines properly. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2011-05-26mailinfo: always clean up rfc822 header foldingLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
Without the "-k" option, mailinfo will convert a folded subject header like: Subject: this is a subject that doesn't fit on one line into a single line. With "-k", however, we assumed that these newlines were significant and represented something that the sending side would want us to preserve. For messages created by format-patch, this assumption was broken by a1f6baa (format-patch: wrap long header lines, 2011-02-23). For messages sent by arbitrary MUAs, this was probably never a good assumption to make, as they may have been folding subjects in accordance with rfc822's line length recommendations all along. This patch now joins folded lines with a single whitespace character. This treats header folding purely as a syntactic feature of the transport mechanism, not as something that format-patch is trying to tell us about the original subject.

2011-05-26t: test subject handling in format-patch / am pipelineLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+77
Commit a1f6baa (format-patch: wrap long header lines, 2011-02-23) changed format-patch's behavior with respect to long header lines, but made no accompanying changes to the receiving side. It was thought that "git am" would handle these folded subjects fine, but there is a regression when using "am -k". Let's add a test documenting this. While we're at it, let's give more complete test coverage to document what should be happening in each case. We test three types of subjects: a short one, one long enough to require wrapping, and a multiline subject. For each, we test these three combinations: format-patch | am format-patch -k | am format-patch -k | am -k We don't bother testing "format-patch | am -k", which is nonsense (you will be adding in [PATCH] cruft to each subject). This reveals the regression above (long subjects have linebreaks introduced via "format-patch -k | am -k"), as well as an existing non-optimal behavior (multiline subjects are not preserved using "-k").
