When a file exists on disk and we're checking out a file that differs
in executableness, remove the old file. This allows us to recreate the
new file with p_open, which will take the new mode into account and
handle setting the umask properly.
Remove any notion of chmod'ing existing files, since it is now handled
by the aforementioned removal and was incorrect, as it did not take
umask into account.
The header src/cc-compat.h defines portable format specifiers PRIuZ, PRIdZ, and PRIxZ. The original report highlighted the need to use these specifiers in examples/network/fetch.c. For this commit, I checked all C source and header files not in deps/ and transitioned to the appropriate format specifier where appropriate.
This lets us specify in the status call which ignore rules we want to
use (optionally falling back to whatever the submodule has in its
configuration).
This removes one of the reasons for having `_set_ignore()` set the value
in-memory. We re-use the `IGNORE_RESET` value for this as it is no
longer relevant but has a similar purpose to `IGNORE_FALLBACK`.
Similarly, we remove `IGNORE_DEFAULT` which does not have use outside of
initializers and move that to fall back to the configuration as well.
As submodules are becomes more like values, we should not let a status
check to update its properties. Instead of taking a submodule, have
status take a repo and submodule name.
Having this cache and giving them out goes against our multithreading
guarantees and it makes it impossible to use submodules in a
multi-threaded environment, as any thread can ask for a refresh which
may reallocate some string in the submodule struct which we've accessed
in a different one via a getter.
This makes the submodules behave more like remotes, where each object is
created upon request and not shared except explicitly by the user. This
means that some tests won't pass yet, as they assume they can affect the
submodule objects in the cache and that will affect later operations.
When updating the index during a diff, preserve the original mode,
which prevents us from dropping the mode to what we have interpreted
as on our system (eg, what the working directory claims it to be,
which may be a lie on some systems.)
When checking out some file 'foo' that has been modified in the
working directory, allow the checkout to proceed (do not conflict)
if 'foo' is identical to the target of the checkout.
We do not error on "merge conflicts"; on the contrary, merge conflicts
are a normal part of merging. We only error on "checkout conflicts",
where a change exists in the index or the working directory that would
otherwise be overwritten by performing the checkout.
This *may* happen during merge (after the production of the new index
that we're going to checkout) but it could happen during any checkout.
When checking out with a case-insensitive working directory, we
want to change the case of items in the working directory to
reflect changes that occured in the checkout target. Diff now
has an option to break case-changing renames into delete/add.
In checkout.c and filter.c we were casting a sub struct
to a parent struct which breaks the strict aliasing rules
in C. However we can use .parent or .base to access the
parent struct to avoid the build warnings.
In remote.c the local variable error was not initialized
or updated in some cases. For unintialized error a build
warning will be generated. So always keep error variable
up-to-date.
This changes the get_entry() method to return a refcounted version of
the config entry, which you have to free when you're done.
This allows us to avoid freeing the memory in which the entry is stored
on a refresh, which may happen at any time for a live config.
For this reason, get_string() has been forbidden on live configs and a
new function get_string_buf() has been added, which stores the string in
a git_buf which the user then owns.
The functions which parse the string value takea advantage of the
borrowing to parse safely and then release the entry.
When the repository does not contain an index, emulate git's behavior
and upgrade to `SAFE_CREATE`. This allows us to check out repositories
created with `git clone --no-checkout`.
During checkout, assume that the .gitattributes files aren't
modified during the checkout. Instead, create an "attribute session"
during checkout. Assume that attribute data read in the same
checkout "session" hasn't been modified since the checkout started.
(But allow subsequent checkouts to invalidate the cache.)
Further, cache nonexistent git_attr_file data even when .gitattributes
files are not found to prevent re-scanning for nonexistent files.
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.
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.
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.
We cannot know from looking at .gitmodules whether a directory is a
submodule or not. We need the index or tree we are comparing against to
tell us. Otherwise we have to assume the entry in .gitmodules is stale
or otherwise invalid.
Thus we pass the index of the repository into the workdir iterator, even
if we do not want to compare against it. This follows what git does,
which even for `git diff <tree>`, it will consider staged submodules as
such.
git_checkout_index can now check out other git_index's (that are not
necessarily the repository index). This allows checkout_index to use
the repository's index for stat cache information instead of the index
data being checked out. git_merge and friends now check out their
indexes directly instead of trying to blend it into the running index.
