From b02fdbc80a41f73ceb6c99e8e27b22285243a335 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Junio C Hamano Date: Sun, 29 May 2022 15:39:51 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] pathspec: correct an empty string used as a pathspec element Pathspecs with only negative elements did not work with some commands that pass the pathspec along to a subprocess. For instance, $ git add -p -- ':!*.txt' should add everything except for paths ending in ".txt", but it gets complaint from underlying "diff-index" and aborts. We used to error out when a pathspec with only negative elements in it, like the one in the above example. Later, 859b7f1d (pathspec: don't error out on all-exclusionary pathspec patterns, 2017-02-07) updated the logic to add an empty string as an extra element. The intention was to let the extra element to match everything and let the negative ones given by the user to subtract from it. At around the same time, we were migrating from "an empty string is a valid pathspec element that matches everything" to "either a dot or ":/" is used to match all, and an empty string is rejected", between d426430e (pathspec: warn on empty strings as pathspec, 2016-06-22) and 9e4e8a64 (pathspec: die on empty strings as pathspec, 2017-06-06). I think 9e4e8a64, which happened long after 859b7f1d happened, was not careful enough to turn the empty string 859b7f1d added to either a dot or ":/". A care should be taken as the definition of "everything" depends on subcommand. For the purpose of "add -p", adding a "." to add everything in the current directory is the right thing to do. But for some other commands, ":/" (i.e. really really everything, even things outside the current subdirectory) is the right choice. We would break commands in a big way if we get this wrong, so add a handful of test pieces to make sure the resulting code still excludes the paths that are expected and includes "everything" else.
