This switches the APIs for setting and getting the global/system
search paths from using git_strarray to using a simple string with
GIT_PATH_LIST_SEPARATOR delimited paths, just as the environment
PATH variable would contain. This makes it simpler to get and set
the value.
I also added code to expand "$PATH" when setting a new value to
embed the old value of the path. This means that I no longer
require separate actions to PREPEND to the value.
The goal of this work is to expose the search logic for "global",
"system", and "xdg" files through the git_libgit2_opts() interface.
Behind the scenes, I changed the logic for finding files to have a
notion of a git_strarray that represents a search path and to store
a separate search path for each of the three tiers of config file.
For each tier, I implemented a function to initialize it to default
values (generally based on environment variables), and then general
interfaces to get it, set it, reset it, and prepend new directories
to it.
Next, I exposed these interfaces through the git_libgit2_opts
interface, reusing the GIT_CONFIG_LEVEL_SYSTEM, etc., constants
for the user to control which search path they were modifying.
There are alternative designs for the opts interface / argument
ordering, so I'm putting this phase out for discussion.
Additionally, I ended up doing a little bit of clean up regarding
attr.h and attr_file.h, adding a new attrcache.h so the other two
files wouldn't have to be included in so many places.
The cppcheck static analyzer generates warnings for a bunch of
places in the libgit2 code base. All the ones fixed in this
commit are actually false positives, but I've reorganized the
code to hopefully make it easier for static analysis tools to
correctly understand the structure. I wouldn't do this if I
felt like it was making the code harder to read or worse for
humans, but in this case, these fixes don't seem too bad and will
hopefully make it easier for better analysis tools to get at any
real issues.
Without this change, any failed assertion in the second (or a later) test
inside a test suite has a chance of double deleting memory, resulting in
a heap corruption. See #1096 for details.
This leaves alone the test cases where we "just" use cl_git_sandbox_init()
and cl_git_sandbox_cleanup(). These methods already take good care to not
double delete a repository.
Fixes#1096
The new Win32 global path search was not working with the
environment variable tests. But when I fixed the test, the new
codes use of getenv() was causing more failures (presumably because
of caching on Windows ???). This fixes the global file lookup to
always go directly to the Win32 API in a predictable way.
The error codes from failed lookups of system and global files
on Windows were not consistent with the codes returned on other
platforms. This makes the error detection patterns match and
adds a unit test for the various errors.
This fixes two bugs:
* Issue #728 where git_status_file was not working for files
that contain spaces. This was caused by reusing the "fnmatch"
parsing code from ignore and attribute files to interpret the
"pathspec" that constrained the files to apply the status to.
In that code, unescaped whitespace was considered terminal to
the pattern, so a file with internal whitespace was excluded
from the matched files. The fix was to add a mode to that code
that allows spaces and tabs inside patterns. This mode only
comes into play when parsing in-memory strings.
* The other issue was undetected, but it was in the recently
added code to reload gitattributes / gitignores when they were
changed on disk. That code was not clearing out the old values
from the cached file content before reparsing which meant that
newly added patterns would be read in, but deleted patterns
would not be removed. The fix was to clear the vector of
patterns in a cached file before reparsing the file.
The function to convert UTF-16 to UTF-8 was only allocating a
buffer of wcslen(utf16str) bytes for the UTF-8 string, but that
is not sufficient if you have multibyte characters, and so when
those occured, the conversion was failing. This updates the
conversion functions to use the Win APIs to calculate the correct
buffer lengths.
Also fixes a comparison in the unit tests that would fail if
you did not have a particular environment variable set.
On Windows, we are having problems with home directories
that have non-ascii characters in them. This rewrites the
relevant code to fetch environment variables as UTF-16 and
then explicitly map then into UTF-8 for our internal usage.
