1. Fix sort order problem with submodules where "mod" was sorting
after "mod-plus" because they were being sorted as "mod/" and
"mod-plus/". This involved pushing the "contains a .git entry"
test significantly lower in the stack.
2. Reinstate behavior that a directory which contains a .git entry
will be treated as a submodule during iteration even if it is
not yet added to the .gitmodules.
3. Now that any directory containing .git is reported as submodule,
we have to be more careful checking for GIT_EEXISTS when we
do a submodule lookup, because that is the error code that is
returned by git_submodule_lookup when you try to look up a
directory containing .git that has no record in gitmodules or
the index.
The iterator APIs are not currently consistent with the parameter
ordering of the rest of the codebase. This rearranges the order
of parameters, simplifies the naming of a number of functions, and
makes somewhat better use of macros internally to clean up the
iterator code.
This also expands the test coverage of iterator functionality,
making sure that case sensitive range-limited iteration works
correctly.
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.
This adds some new tests that actually exercise the similarity
metric between files to detect renames, copies, and split modified
files that are too heavily modified.
There is still more testing to do - these tests are just partially
covering the cases.
There is also one bug fix in this where a change set with only
MODIFY being broken into ADD/DELETE (due to low self-similarity)
without any additional RENAMED entries would end up not processing
the split requests (because the num_rewrites counter got reset).
There are many different broken filemodes in the wild so we need to
protect against them and give something useful up the chain. Don't
fail when reading a tree from the ODB but normalize the mode as best
we can.
As 664 is no longer a mode that we consider to be valid and gets
normalized to 644, we can stop accepting it in the treebuilder. The
library won't expose it to the user, so any invalid modes are a bug.
This fix makes libgit2 capable of parsing annotated tag objects that lack
the optional message/description field.
Previously, libgit2 treated this field as mandatory and raised a tag_error on
such tags. However, the message field is optional.
An example of such a tag is refs/tags/v2.6.16.31-rc1 in Linux:
$ git cat-file tag refs/tags/v2.6.16.31-rc1
object afaa018cefb6af63befef1df7d8febaae904434f
type commit
tag v2.6.16.31-rc1

This implements the basis for diff rename and copy detection,
although it is based on simple SHA comparison right now instead
of using a matching algortihm. Just as `git_diff_merge` can be
used as a post-pass on diffs to emulate certain command line
behaviors, there is a new API `git_diff_detect` which will
update a diff list in-place, adjusting some deltas to RENAMED
or COPIED state (and also, eventually, splitting MODIFIED deltas
where the change is too large into DELETED/ADDED pairs).
This also adds a new test repo that will hold rename/copy/split
scenarios. Right now, it just has exact-match rename and copy,
but the tests are written to use tree diffs, so we should be able
to add new test scenarios easily without breaking tests.
Added `struct git_config_entry`: a git_config_entry contains the key, the value, and the config file level from which a config element was found.
Added `git_config_open_level`: build a single-level focused config object from a multi-level one.
We are now storing `git_config_entry`s in the khash of the config_file
To answer if a single given file should be ignored, the path to
that file has to be processed progressively checking that there
are no intermediate ignored directories in getting to the file
in question. This enables that, fixing the broken old behavior,
and adds tests to exercise various ignore situations.
We used to require loose references to contain only an OID (possibly
after trimming the string). This is however not enough for letting us
lookup FETCH_HEAD, which can have a lot of content after the initial
OID.
Change the parsing rules so that a loose refernce must e at least 40
bytes long and the 41st (if it's there) must be accepted by
isspace(3). This makes the trim unnecessary, so only do it for
symrefs. This fixes#977.
This started as a complex new test for checkout going through the
"typechanges" test repository, but that revealed numerous issues
with checkout, including:
* complete failure with submodules
* failure to create blobs with exec bits
* problems when replacing a tree with a blob because the tree
"example/" sorts after the blob "example" so the delete was
being processed after the single file blob was created
This fixes most of those problems and includes a number of other
minor changes that made it easier to do that, including improving
the TYPECHANGE support in diff/status, etc.
