Learn to handle gitfiles in enter_repo

2011-10-04T20:30:38Z

The enter_repo() function is used to navigate into a .git directory. It knows how to find standard alternatives (DWIM) but it doesn't handle gitfiles created by git init --separate-git-dir. This means that git-fetch and others do not work with repositories using the separate-git-dir mechanism. Teach enter_repo() to deal with the gitfile mechanism by resolving the path to the redirected path and continuing tests on that path instead of the found file.

enter_repo: do not modify input

2011-10-04T20:30:38Z

entr_repo(..., 0) currently modifies the input to strip away trailing slashes. This means that we some times need to copy the input to keep the original. Change it to unconditionally copy it into the used_path buffer so we can safely use the input without having to copy it. Also store a working copy in validated_path up-front before we start resolving anything. Signed-off-by: Erik Faye-Lund Signed-off-by: Phil Hord Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

read_gitfile_gently(): rename misnamed function to read_gitfile()

2011-08-22T21:04:56Z

The function was not gentle at all to the callers and died without giving them a chance to deal with possible errors. Rename it to read_gitfile(), and update all the callers. As no existing caller needs a true "gently" variant, we do not bother adding one at this point. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

Name make_*_path functions more accurately

2011-03-17T23:08:30Z

Rename the make_*_path functions so it's clearer what they do, in particlar make clear what the differnce between make_absolute_path and make_nonrelative_path is by renaming them real_path and absolute_path respectively. make_relative_path has an understandable name and is renamed to relative_path to maintain the name convention. The function calls have been replaced 1-to-1 in their usage. Signed-off-by: Carlos Martín Nieto Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

path helpers: move git_mkstemp* to wrapper.c

2010-11-10T19:04:26Z

git_mkstemp_mode and related functions do not require access to specialized git machinery, unlike some other functions from path.c (like set_shared_perm()). Move them to wrapper.c where the wrapper xmkstemp_mode is defined. This eliminates a dependency of wrapper.o on environment.o via path.o. With typical linkers (e.g., gcc), that dependency makes programs that use functions from wrapper.o and not environment.o or path.o larger than they need to be.

config --get --path: check for unset $HOME

2010-07-27T17:58:46Z

If $HOME is unset (as in some automated build situations), currently git config --path path.home "~" git config --path --get path.home segfaults. Error out with Failed to expand user dir in: '~/' instead. Reported-by: Julien Cristau Signed-off-by: Jonathan Nieder Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

Teach ref iteration module about submodules

2010-07-07T16:48:21Z

We will use this in a later patch to extend setup_revisions() to load revisions directly from a submodule. Signed-off-by: Heiko Voigt Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

Merge branch 'mm/mkstemps-mode-for-packfiles' into maint

2010-03-08T08:36:00Z

* mm/mkstemps-mode-for-packfiles: Use git_mkstemp_mode instead of plain mkstemp to create object files git_mkstemps_mode: don't set errno to EINVAL on exit. Use git_mkstemp_mode and xmkstemp_mode in odb_mkstemp, not chmod later. git_mkstemp_mode, xmkstemp_mode: variants of gitmkstemps with mode argument. Move gitmkstemps to path.c Add a testcase for ACL with restrictive umask.
