This cleans up some additional issues. The main change is that
on a filesystem that doesn't support mode bits, libgit2 will now
create new blobs with GIT_FILEMODE_BLOB always instead of being
at the mercy to the filesystem driver to report executable or not.
This means that if "core.filemode" lies and claims that filemode
is not supported, then we will ignore the executable bit from the
filesystem. Previously we would have allowed it.
This adds an option to the new git_repository_reset_filesystem to
recurse through submodules if desired. There may be other types
of APIs that would like a "recurse submodules" option, but this
one is particularly useful.
This also has a number of cleanups, etc., for related things
including trying to give better error messages when problems come
up from the filesystem. For example, the FAT filesystem driver on
MacOS appears to return errno EINVAL if you attempt to write a
filename with invalid UTF-8 in it. We try to capture that with a
better error message now.
This hooks up git_path_direach and git_path_dirload so that they
will take a flag indicating if directory entry names should be
tested and converted from decomposed unicode to precomposed form.
This code will only come into play on the Apple platform and even
then, only when certain types of filesystems are used.
This involved adding a flag to these functions which involved
changing a lot of places in the code.
This was an opportunity to do a bit of code cleanup here and there,
for example, getting rid of the git_futils_cleanupdir_r function in
favor of a simple flag to git_futils_rmdir_r to not remove the top
level entry. That ended up adding depth tracking during rmdir_r
which led to a safety check for infinite directory recursion. Yay.
This hasn't actually been tested on the Mac filesystems where the
issue occurs. I still need to get test environment for that.
These are a couple of new clar helpers for testing that a file
has expected contents that I extracted from the checkout code.
Actually wrote this as part of an abandoned earlier attempt at a
new filters API, but it will be useful now for some of the tests
I'm going to write.
Increasingly there are a number of components that want to do some
cleanup at global shutdown time (at least if there are not going
to be memory leaks). This creates a very simple system of shutdown
hooks that will be invoked by git_threads_shutdown. Right now, the
maximum number of hooks is hardcoded, but since adding a hook is
not a public API, it should be fine and I thought it was better to
start off with really simple code.
This adds some more macros for some standard operations on file
modes, particularly related to permissions, and then updates a
number of places around the code base to use the new macros.
Report the index being locked with its own error code in order to be
able to differentiate, as a locked index is typically the result of a
crashed process or concurrent access, both of which often require user
intervention to fix.
This reverts refactoring done in 13224ea4aa
that introduces a performance regression for NFS when reading files that
don't exist. open() forces a cache invalidation on NFS, while stat()ing a
file just uses the cache and is very quick.
To give a specific example, say you have a repo with a thousand packed
refs. Before this change, looking up every single one ould incur a thousand
slow open() calls. With this change, it's a thousand fast stat() calls.
In theory, p_stat should never return an S_ISLNK result, but due
to the current implementation on Windows with mount points it is
possible that it will. For now, work around that by allowing a
link in the path to a directory being created. If it is really a
problem, then the issue will be caught on the next iteration of
the loop, but typically this will be the right thing to do.
There are two places where git_futils_mkdir should exit early or
at least do less. The first is when using GIT_MKDIR_SKIP_LAST
and having that flag leave no directory left to create; it was
being handled previously, but the behavior was subtle. Now I put
in a clear explicit check that exits early in that case.
The second is when there is no directory to create, but there is
a valid path that should be verified. I shifted the logic a bit
so we'll be better about not entering the loop than that happens.
This makes sure that git_futils_mkdir always skips over the root
directory at a minimum, even on platforms where the root is not
simply '/'. Also, this removes the GIT_WIN32 ifdef in favor of
making EACCES as a potentially recoverable error on all platforms.
We ran into an issue where cloning a repository to a folder
directly underneath the root of a volume (e.g. 'd:\libgit2')
would fail with an access denied error. This was traced down
to a call to make a directory that is the root (e.g. 'd:') could
return an error indicated access denied instead of an error
indicating the path already exists. This change now handles
the access denied error on Win32 and checks for the existence
of the folder.
This adds a bunch more rename detection tests including checks
vs the working directory, the new exact match options, some more
whitespace variants, etc.
This also adds a git_futils_writebuffer helper function and uses
it in checkout. This is mainly added because I wanted an easy
way to write out a git_buf to disk inside my test code.
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.
Implicit type conversion argument of function to size_t type

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.
When creating files, instead of actually using GIT_FILEMODE_BLOB
and the other various constants that happen to correspond to
mode values, apparently I should be just using 0666 and 0777, and
relying on the umask to clear bits and make the value sane.
This fixes the rules for copying a template directory and fixes
the checks to match that new behavior. (Further changes to the
checkout logic to follow separately.)
When PR #1359 removed the hooks from the test resources/template
directory, it made me realize that the tests for
git_repository_init_ext using templates must be pretty shabby
because we could not have been testing if the hooks were getting
created correctly.
So, this started with me recreating a couple of hooks, including
a sample and symlink, and adding tests that they got created
correctly in the various circumstances, including with the SHARED
modes, etc. Unfortunately this uncovered some issues with how
directories and symlinks were copied and chmod'ed. Also, there
was a FIXME in the code related to the chmod behavior as well.
Going back over the directory creation logic for setting up a
repository, I found it was a little difficult to read and could
result in creating and/or chmod'ing directories that the user
almost certainly didn't intend.
So that let to this work which makes repo initialization much
more careful (and hopefully easier to follow). It required a
couple of extensions / changes to core fileops utilities, but I
also think those are for the better, at least for git_futils_cp_r
in terms of being careful about what actions it takes.
