Clean up work-tree handling The old version of work-tree support was an unholy mess, barely readable, and not to the point. For example, why do you have to provide a worktree, when it is not used? As in "git status". Now it works. Another riddle was: if you can have work trees inside the git dir, why are some programs complaining that they need a work tree? IOW it is allowed to call $ git --git-dir=../ --work-tree=. bla when you really want to. In this case, you are both in the git directory and in the working tree. So, programs have to actually test for the right thing, namely if they are inside a working tree, and not if they are inside a git directory. Also, GIT_DIR=../.git should behave the same as if no GIT_DIR was specified, unless there is a repository in the current working directory. It does now. The logic to determine if a repository is bare, or has a work tree (tertium non datur), is this: --work-tree=bla overrides GIT_WORK_TREE, which overrides core.bare = true, which overrides core.worktree, which overrides GIT_DIR/.. when GIT_DIR ends in /.git, which overrides the directory in which .git/ was found. In related news, a long standing bug was fixed: when in .git/bla/x.git/, which is a bare repository, git formerly assumed ../.. to be the appropriate git dir. This problem was reported by Shawn Pearce to have caused much pain, where a colleague mistakenly ran "git init" in "/" a long time ago, and bare repositories just would not work.

setup: sanitize absolute and funny paths in get_pathspec() The prefix_path() function called from get_pathspec() is responsible for translating list of user-supplied pathspecs to list of pathspecs that is relative to the root of the work tree. When working inside a subdirectory, the user-supplied pathspecs are taken to be relative to the current subdirectory. Among special path components in pathspecs, we used to accept and interpret only "." ("the directory", meaning a no-op) and ".." ("up one level") at the beginning. Everything else was passed through as-is. For example, if you are in Documentation/ directory of the project, you can name Documentation/howto/maintain-git.txt as: howto/maintain-git.txt ../Documentation/howto/maitain-git.txt ../././Documentation/howto/maitain-git.txt but not as: howto/./maintain-git.txt $(pwd)/howto/maintain-git.txt This patch updates prefix_path() in several ways: - If the pathspec is not absolute, prefix (i.e. the current subdirectory relative to the root of the work tree, with terminating slash, if not empty) and the pathspec is concatenated first and used in the next step. Otherwise, that absolute pathspec is used in the next step. - Then special path components "." (no-op) and ".." (up one level) are interpreted to simplify the path. It is an error to have too many ".." to cause the intermediate result to step outside of the input to this step. - If the original pathspec was not absolute, the result from the previous step is the resulting "sanitized" pathspec. Otherwise, the result from the previous step is still absolute, and it is an error if it does not begin with the directory that corresponds to the root of the work tree. The directory is stripped away from the result and is returned. - In any case, the resulting pathspec in the array get_pathspec() returns omit the ones that caused errors.

standardize and improve lookup rules for external local repos When you specify a local repository on the command line of clone, ls-remote, upload-pack, receive-pack, or upload-archive, or in a request to git-daemon, we perform a little bit of lookup magic, doing things like looking in working trees for .git directories and appending ".git" for bare repos. For clone, this magic happens in get_repo_path. For everything else, it happens in enter_repo. In both cases, there are some ambiguous or confusing cases that aren't handled well, and there is one case that is not handled the same by both methods. This patch tries to provide (and test!) standard, sensible lookup rules for both code paths. The intended changes are: 1. When looking up "foo", we have always preferred a working tree "foo" (containing "foo/.git" over the bare "foo.git". But we did not prefer a bare "foo" over "foo.git". With this patch, we do so. 2. We would select directories that existed but didn't actually look like git repositories. With this patch, we make sure a selected directory looks like a git repo. Not only is this more sensible in general, but it will help anybody who is negatively affected by change (1) negatively (e.g., if they had "foo.git" next to its separate work tree "foo", and expect to keep finding "foo.git" when they reference "foo"). 3. The enter_repo code path would, given "foo", look for "foo.git/.git" (i.e., do the ".git" append magic even for a repo with working tree). The clone code path did not; with this patch, they now behave the same. In the unlikely case of a working tree overlaying a bare repo (i.e., a ".git" directory _inside_ a bare repo), we continue to treat it as a working tree (prefering the "inner" .git over the bare repo). This is mainly because the combination seems nonsensical, and I'd rather stick with existing behavior on the off chance that somebody is relying on it.

setup: suppress implicit "." work-tree for bare repos If an explicit GIT_DIR is given without a working tree, we implicitly assume that the current working directory should be used as the working tree. E.g.,: GIT_DIR=/some/repo.git git status would compare against the cwd. Unfortunately, we fool this rule for sub-invocations of git by setting GIT_DIR internally ourselves. For example: git init foo cd foo/.git git status ;# fails, as we expect git config alias.st status git status ;# does not fail, but should What happens is that we run setup_git_directory when doing alias lookup (since we need to see the config), set GIT_DIR as a result, and then leave GIT_WORK_TREE blank (because we do not have one). Then when we actually run the status command, we do setup_git_directory again, which sees our explicit GIT_DIR and uses the cwd as an implicit worktree. It's tempting to argue that we should be suppressing that second invocation of setup_git_directory, as it could use the values we already found in memory. However, the problem still exists for sub-processes (e.g., if "git status" were an external command). You can see another example with the "--bare" option, which sets GIT_DIR explicitly. For example: git init foo cd foo/.git git status ;# fails git --bare status ;# does NOT fail We need some way of telling sub-processes "even though GIT_DIR is set, do not use cwd as an implicit working tree". We could do it by putting a special token into GIT_WORK_TREE, but the obvious choice (an empty string) has some portability problems. Instead, we add a new boolean variable, GIT_IMPLICIT_WORK_TREE, which suppresses the use of cwd as a working tree when GIT_DIR is set. We trigger the new variable when we know we are in a bare setting. The variable is left intentionally undocumented, as this is an internal detail (for now, anyway). If somebody comes up with a good alternate use for it, and once we are confident we have shaken any bugs out of it, we can consider promoting it further.

In "test-path-utils longest_ancestor_length", use the old normalization, but die() if any paths are unusable. Also change t0060 to only pass normalized paths to the test program (no empty entries or non-absolute paths, strip trailing slashes from the paths, and remove tests that thereby become redundant). The point of this change is to reduce the scope of the ancestor_length tests in t0060 from testing normalization+longest_prefix to testing only mostly longest_prefix. This is necessary because when setup_git_directory_gently_1() starts resolving symlinks as part of its normalization, it will not be reasonable to do the same in the test suite, because that would make the test results depend on the contents of the root directory of the filesystem on which the test is run. HOWEVER: under Windows, bash mangles arguments that look like absolute POSIX paths into DOS paths. So we have to retain the level of normalization done by normalize_path_copy() to convert the bash-mangled DOS paths (which contain backslashes) into paths that use forward slashes.

longest_ancestor_length(): require prefix list entries to be normalized Move the responsibility for normalizing prefixes from longest_ancestor_length() to its callers. Use slightly different normalizations at the two callers: In setup_git_directory_gently_1(), use the old normalization, which ignores paths that are not usable. In the next commit we will change this caller to also resolve symlinks in the paths from GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES as part of the normalization. In "test-path-utils longest_ancestor_length", use the old normalization, but die() if any paths are unusable. Also change t0060 to only pass normalized paths to the test program (no empty entries or non-absolute paths, strip trailing slashes from the paths, and remove tests that thereby become redundant). The point of this change is to reduce the scope of the ancestor_length tests in t0060 from testing normalization+longest_prefix to testing only mostly longest_prefix. This is necessary because when setup_git_directory_gently_1() starts resolving symlinks as part of its normalization, it will not be reasonable to do the same in the test suite, because that would make the test results depend on the contents of the root directory of the filesystem on which the test is run. HOWEVER: under Windows, bash mangles arguments that look like absolute POSIX paths into DOS paths. So we have to retain the level of normalization done by normalize_path_copy() to convert the bash-mangled DOS paths (which contain backslashes) into paths that use forward slashes.

Provide a mechanism to turn off symlink resolution in ceiling paths Commit 1b77d83cab 'setup_git_directory_gently_1(): resolve symlinks in ceiling paths' changed the setup code to resolve symlinks in the entries in GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES. Because those entries are compared textually to the symlink-resolved current directory, an entry in GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES that contained a symlink would have no effect. It was known that this could cause performance problems if the symlink resolution *itself* touched slow filesystems, but it was thought that such use cases would be unlikely. The intention of the earlier change was to deal with a case when the user has this: GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES=/home/gitster but in reality, /home/gitster is a symbolic link to somewhere else, e.g. /net/machine/home4/gitster.

Clean up work-tree handling The old version of work-tree support was an unholy mess, barely readable, and not to the point. For example, why do you have to provide a worktree, when it is not used? As in "git status". Now it works. Another riddle was: if you can have work trees inside the git dir, why are some programs complaining that they need a work tree? IOW it is allowed to call $ git --git-dir=../ --work-tree=. bla when you really want to. In this case, you are both in the git directory and in the working tree. So, programs have to actually test for the right thing, namely if they are inside a working tree, and not if they are inside a git directory. Also, GIT_DIR=../.git should behave the same as if no GIT_DIR was specified, unless there is a repository in the current working directory. It does now. The logic to determine if a repository is bare, or has a work tree (tertium non datur), is this: --work-tree=bla overrides GIT_WORK_TREE, which overrides core.bare = true, which overrides core.worktree, which overrides GIT_DIR/.. when GIT_DIR ends in /.git, which overrides the directory in which .git/ was found. In related news, a long standing bug was fixed: when in .git/bla/x.git/, which is a bare repository, git formerly assumed ../.. to be the appropriate git dir. This problem was reported by Shawn Pearce to have caused much pain, where a colleague mistakenly ran "git init" in "/" a long time ago, and bare repositories just would not work.

Clean up work-tree handling The old version of work-tree support was an unholy mess, barely readable, and not to the point. For example, why do you have to provide a worktree, when it is not used? As in "git status". Now it works. Another riddle was: if you can have work trees inside the git dir, why are some programs complaining that they need a work tree? IOW it is allowed to call $ git --git-dir=../ --work-tree=. bla when you really want to. In this case, you are both in the git directory and in the working tree. So, programs have to actually test for the right thing, namely if they are inside a working tree, and not if they are inside a git directory. Also, GIT_DIR=../.git should behave the same as if no GIT_DIR was specified, unless there is a repository in the current working directory. It does now. The logic to determine if a repository is bare, or has a work tree (tertium non datur), is this: --work-tree=bla overrides GIT_WORK_TREE, which overrides core.bare = true, which overrides core.worktree, which overrides GIT_DIR/.. when GIT_DIR ends in /.git, which overrides the directory in which .git/ was found. In related news, a long standing bug was fixed: when in .git/bla/x.git/, which is a bare repository, git formerly assumed ../.. to be the appropriate git dir. This problem was reported by Shawn Pearce to have caused much pain, where a colleague mistakenly ran "git init" in "/" a long time ago, and bare repositories just would not work.

introduce GIT_WORK_TREE to specify the work tree setup_gdg is used as abbreviation for setup_git_directory_gently. The work tree can be specified using the environment variable GIT_WORK_TREE and the config option core.worktree (the environment variable has precendence over the config option). Additionally there is a command line option --work-tree which sets the environment variable. setup_gdg does the following now: GIT_DIR unspecified repository in .git directory parent directory of the .git directory is used as work tree, GIT_WORK_TREE is ignored GIT_DIR unspecified repository in cwd GIT_DIR is set to cwd see the cases with GIT_DIR specified what happens next and also see the note below GIT_DIR specified GIT_WORK_TREE/core.worktree unspecified cwd is used as work tree GIT_DIR specified GIT_WORK_TREE/core.worktree specified the specified work tree is used Note on the case where GIT_DIR is unspecified and repository is in cwd: GIT_WORK_TREE is used but is_inside_git_dir is always true. I did it this way because setup_gdg might be called multiple times (e.g. when doing alias expansion) and in successive calls setup_gdg should do the same thing every time. Meaning of is_bare/is_inside_work_tree/is_inside_git_dir: (1) is_bare_repository A repository is bare if core.bare is true or core.bare is unspecified and the name suggests it is bare (directory not named .git). The bare option disables a few protective checks which are useful with a working tree. Currently this changes if a repository is bare: updates of HEAD are allowed git gc packs the refs the reflog is disabled by default (2) is_inside_work_tree True if the cwd is inside the associated working tree (if there is one), false otherwise. (3) is_inside_git_dir True if the cwd is inside the git directory, false otherwise. Before this patch is_inside_git_dir was always true for bare repositories. When setup_gdg finds a repository git_config(git_default_config) is always called. This ensure that is_bare_repository makes use of core.bare and does not guess even though core.bare is specified. inside_work_tree and inside_git_dir are set if setup_gdg finds a repository. The is_inside_work_tree and is_inside_git_dir functions will die if they are called before a successful call to setup_gdg.

Avoid unnecessary "if-before-free" tests. This change removes all obvious useless if-before-free tests. E.g., it replaces code like this: if (some_expression) free (some_expression); with the now-equivalent: free (some_expression); It is equivalent not just because POSIX has required free(NULL) to work for a long time, but simply because it has worked for so long that no reasonable porting target fails the test. Here's some evidence from nearly 1.5 years ago: http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-patches/2006-October/031544.html FYI, the change below was prepared by running the following: git ls-files -z | xargs -0 \ perl -0x3b -pi -e \ 's/\bif\s*\(\s*(\S+?)(?:\s*!=\s*NULL)?\s*\)\s+(free\s*\(\s*\1\s*\))/$2/s' Note however, that it doesn't handle brace-enclosed blocks like "if (x) { free (x); }". But that's ok, since there were none like that in git sources. Beware: if you do use the above snippet, note that it can produce syntactically invalid C code. That happens when the affected "if"-statement has a matching "else". E.g., it would transform this if (x) free (x); else foo (); into this: free (x); else foo (); There were none of those here, either. If you're interested in automating detection of the useless tests, you might like the useless-if-before-free script in gnulib: [it *does* detect brace-enclosed free statements, and has a --name=S option to make it detect free-like functions with different names] http://git.sv.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=gnulib.git;a=blob;f=build-aux/useless-if-before-free Addendum: Remove one more (in imap-send.c), spotted by Jean-Luc Herren <jlh@gmx.ch>.
