On case insensitive filesystems, we may have files in the working
directory that case fold to a name we want to write. Remove those
files (by default) so that we will not end up with a filename that
has the unexpected case.
The documentation for `git_path_join_unrooted` states that the base
length will be returned, so that consumers like checkout know where
to start creating directories instead of always creating directories
at the directory root.
The implementation of the hashsig API disallows computing a signature on
small files containing only a few lines. This new flag disables this
behavior.
git_diff_find_similar() sets this flag by default which means that rename
/ copy detection of small files will now work. This in turn affects the
behavior of the git_status and git_blame APIs which will now detect rename
of small files assuming the right options are passed.
Remove the hook symlink from the test resources, so that we can
have a source tree that is easy to zip up and copy around on systems
that don't support symlinks. Create it dynamically at test execution
instead.
On a case-insensitive filesystem, we need to deal with case-changing
renames (eg, foo -> FOO) by removing the old and adding the new,
exactly as if we were on a case-sensitive filesystem.
Update the `checkout::tree::can_cancel_checkout_from_notify` test, now
that notifications are always sent case sensitively.
This introduces the functionality of submodule update in
'git_submodule_do_update'. The existing 'git_submodule_update' function is
renamed to 'git_submodule_update_strategy'. The 'git_submodule_update'
function now refers to functionality similar to `git submodule update`,
while `git_submodule_update_strategy` is used to get the configured value
of submodule.<name>.update.
Path validation may be influenced by `core.protectHFS` and
`core.protectNTFS` configuration settings, thus treebuilders
can take a repository to influence their configuration.
HFS filesystems ignore some characters like U+200C. When these
characters are included in a path, they will be ignored for the
purposes of comparison with other paths. Thus, if you have a ".git"
folder, a folder of ".git<U+200C>" will also match. Protect our
".git" folder by ensuring that ".git<U+200C>" and friends do not match it.
Disallow:
1. paths with trailing dot
2. paths with trailing space
3. paths with trailing colon
4. paths that are 8.3 short names of .git folders ("GIT~1")
5. paths that are reserved path names (COM1, LPT1, etc).
6. paths with reserved DOS characters (colons, asterisks, etc)
These paths would (without \\?\ syntax) be elided to other paths - for
example, ".git." would be written as ".git". As a result, writing these
paths literally (using \\?\ syntax) makes them hard to operate with from
the shell, Windows Explorer or other tools. Disallow these.
When turning UTF-8 paths into UCS-2 paths for Windows, always use
the \\?\-prefixed paths. Because this bypasses the system's
path canonicalization, handle the canonicalization functions ourselves.
We must:
1. always use a backslash as a directory separator
2. only use a single backslash between directories
3. not rely on the system to translate "." and ".." in paths
4. remove trailing backslashes, except at the drive root (C:\)
We do not currently generate any messages when we're counting the
objects, as might be expected from a local upload-pack. Assert that we
do call the function when working.
