Derrick Stolee 70569fadce t1092: document bad 'git checkout' behavior
Add new branches to the test repo that demonstrate directory/file
conflicts in different ways. Since the directory 'folder1/' has
adjacent files 'folder1-', 'folder1.txt', and 'folder10' it causes
searches for 'folder1/' to land in a different place in the index than a
search for 'folder1'. This causes a change in behavior when working with
the df-conflict-1 and df-conflict-2 branches, whose only difference is
that the first uses 'folder1' as the conflict and the other uses
'folder2' which does not have these adjacent files.

We can extend two tests that compare the behavior across different 'git
checkout' commands, and we see already that the behavior will be
different in some cases and not in others. The difference between the
two test loops is that one uses 'git reset --hard' between iterations.

Further, we isolate the behavior of creating a staged change within a
directory and then checking out a branch where that directory is
replaced with a file. A full checkout behaves differently across these
two cases, while a sparse-checkout cone behaves consistently. In both
cases, the behavior is wrong. In one case, the staged change is dropped
entirely. The other case the staged change is kept, replacing the file
at that location, but none of the other files in the directory are kept.

Likely, the correct behavior in this case is to reject the checkout and
report the conflict, leaving HEAD in its previous location. None of the
cases behave this way currently. Use comments to demonstrate that the
tested behavior is only a documentation of the current, incorrect
behavior to ensure we do not _accidentally_ change it. Instead, we would
prefer to change it on purpose with a future change.

At this point, the sparse-index does not handle these 'git checkout'
commands correctly. Or rather, it _does_ reject the 'git checkout' when
we have the staged change, but for the wrong reason. It also rejects the
'git checkout' commands when there is no staged change and we want to
replace a directory with a file. A fix for that unstaged case will
follow in the next change, but that will make the sparse-index agree
with the full checkout case in these documented incorrect behaviors.

Git - fast, scalable, distributed revision control system

Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals.

Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses, compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.

Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.

Many Git online resources are accessible from https://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools.

See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see Documentation/giteveryday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and Documentation/git-<commandname>.txt for documentation of each command. If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be read with man gittutorial or git help tutorial, and the documentation of each command with man git-<commandname> or git help <commandname>.

CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt (man gitcvs-migration or git help cvs-migration if git is installed).

The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission). To subscribe to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at https://lore.kernel.org/git/, http://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.

Issues which are security relevant should be disclosed privately to the Git Security mailing list git-security@googlegroups.com.

The maintainer frequently sends the "What's cooking" reports that list the current status of various development topics to the mailing list. The discussion following them give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.

The name "git" was given by Linus Torvalds when he wrote the very first version. He described the tool as "the stupid content tracker" and the name as (depending on your mood):

  • random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not actually used by any common UNIX command. The fact that it is a mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant.
  • stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the dictionary of slang.
  • "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
  • "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks
