* js/maint-1.6.0-path-normalize: Remove unused normalize_absolute_path() Test and fix normalize_path_copy() Fix GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES on Windows Move sanitary_path_copy() to path.c and rename it to normalize_path_copy() Make test-path-utils more robust against incorrect use

Move sanitary_path_copy() to path.c and rename it to normalize_path_copy()

2009-02-07T20:23:29Z

This function and normalize_absolute_path() do almost the same thing. The former already works on Windows, but the latter crashes. In subsequent changes we will remove normalize_absolute_path(). Here we make the replacement function reusable. On the way we rename it to reflect that it does some path normalization. Apart from that this is only moving around code.

* sg/maint-gitdir-in-subdir: Fix gitdir detection when in subdir of gitdir

Fix gitdir detection when in subdir of gitdir

2009-01-18T05:46:50Z

If the current working directory is a subdirectory of the gitdir (e.g. /.git/refs/), then setup_git_directory_gently() will climb its parent directories until it finds itself in a gitdir. However, no matter how many parent directories it climbs, it sets 'GIT_DIR_ENVIRONMENT' to ".", which is obviously wrong. This behaviour affected at least 'git rev-parse --git-dir' and hence caused some errors in bash completion (e.g. customized command prompt when on a detached head and completion of refs). To fix this, we set the absolute path of the found gitdir instead. Signed-off-by: SZEDER Gábor Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

make prefix_path() never return NULL

2008-10-06T07:37:30Z

There are 9 places where prefix_path is called, and only in one of them the returned pointer was checked to be non-zero and only to call exit(128) as it is usually done by die(). In other 8 places, the returned value was not checked and it caused SIGSEGV when a path outside of the working tree was used. For instance, running git update-index --add /some/path/outside caused SIGSEGV. This patch changes prefix_path() to die if the path is outside of the repository, so it never returns NULL.

setup_git_directory(): fix move to worktree toplevel directory

2008-08-31T06:41:12Z

When setup_git_directory() returns successfully, it is supposed to move current working directory to worktree toplevel directory. However, the code recomputing prefix inside setup_git_directory() has to move cwd back to original working directory, in order to get new prefix. After that, it should move cwd back to worktree toplevel directory as expected. Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano
