2016-12-12tmp-objdir: quote paths we add to alternatesLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+17
Commit 722ff7f87 (receive-pack: quarantine objects until pre-receive accepts, 2016-10-03) regressed pushes to repositories with colon (or semi-colon in Windows in them) because it adds the repository's main object directory to GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_DIRECTORIES. The receiver interprets the colon as a delimiter, not as part of the path, and index-pack is unable to find objects which it needs to resolve deltas. The previous commit introduced a quoting mechanism for the alternates list; let's use it here to cover this case. We'll avoid quoting when we can, though. This alternate setup is also used when calling hooks, so it's possible that the user may call older git implementations which don't understand the quoting mechanism. By quoting only when necessary, this setup will continue to work unless the user _also_ has a repository whose path contains the delimiter.

2016-10-10tmp-objdir: do not migrate files starting with '.'Libravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
This avoids "." and "..", as we already do, but also leaves room for index-pack to store extra data in the quarantine area (e.g., for passing back any analysis to be read by the pre-receive hook). Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2016-10-10tmp-objdir: put quarantine information in the environmentLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+2
The presence of the GIT_QUARANTINE_PATH variable lets any called programs know that they're operating in a temporary object directory (and where that directory is). Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2016-10-10tmp-objdir: introduce API for temporary object directoriesLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+273
Once objects are added to the object database by a process, they cannot easily be deleted, as we don't know what other processes may have started referencing them. We have to clean them up with git-gc, which will apply the usual reachability and grace-period checks. This patch provides an alternative: it helps callers create a temporary directory inside the object directory, and a temporary environment which can be passed to sub-programs to ask them to write there (the original object directory remains accessible as an alternate of the temporary one). See tmp-objdir.h for details on the API. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
