* correct a few doubled-word nits in comments and documentationJim Meyering2012-03-281-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Found by running this command: $ git ls-files -z|xargs -0 perl -0777 -n \ -e 'while (/\b(then?|[iao]n|i[fst]|but|f?or|at|and|[dt]o)\s+\1\b/gims)' \ -e ' {' \ -e ' $n = ($` =~ tr/\n/\n/ + 1);' \ -e ' ($v = $&) =~ s/\n/\\n/g;' \ -e ' print "$ARGV:$n:$v\n";' \ -e ' }' Why not just git grep -E ...? That wouldn't work then the doubled words are separated by a newline. This is derived from a Makefile syntax-check rule in gnulib's maint.mk: http://git.sv.gnu.org/cgit/gnulib.git/tree/top/maint.mk Signed-off-by: Jim Meyering <meyering@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

* enums: omit trailing comma for portabilityGary V. Vaughan2010-05-311-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Without this patch at least IBM VisualAge C 5.0 (I have 5.0.2) on AIX 5.1 fails to compile git. enum style is inconsistent already, with some enums declared on one line, some over 3 lines with the enum values all on the middle line, sometimes with 1 enum value per line... and independently of that the trailing comma is sometimes present and other times absent, often mixing with/without trailing comma styles in a single file, and sometimes in consecutive enum declarations. Clearly, omitting the comma is the more portable style, and this patch changes all enum declarations to use the portable omitted dangling comma style consistently. Signed-off-by: Gary V.

* git_attr(): fix function signatureJunio C Hamano2010-01-161-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | The function took (name, namelen) as its arguments, but all the public callers wanted to pass a full string. Demote the counted-string interface to an internal API status, and allow public callers to just pass the string to the function. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
* attr: add GIT_ATTR_INDEX "direction"Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy2009-04-171-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | This instructs attr mechanism, not to look into working .gitattributes at all. Needed by tools that does not handle working directory, such as "git archive". Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclouds@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
* Read attributes from the index that is being checked outJunio C Hamano2009-03-131-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Traditionally we used .gitattributes file from the work tree if exists, and otherwise read from the index as a fallback. When switching to a branch that has an updated .gitattributes file, and entries in it give different attributes to other paths being checked out, we should instead read from the .gitattributes in the index. This breaks a use case of fixing incorrect entries in the .gitattributes in the work tree (without adding it to the index) and checking other paths out, though. $ edit .gitattributes ;# mark foo.dat as binary $ rm foo.dat $ git checkout foo.dat Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
* Fix funny types used in attribute value representationJunio C Hamano2007-04-181-7/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | It was bothering me a lot that I abused small integer values casted to (void *) to represent non string values in gitattributes. This corrects it by making the type of attribute values (const char *), and using the address of a few statically allocated character buffer to denote true/false. Unset attributes are represented as having NULLs as their values. Added in-header documentation to explain how git_checkattr() routine should be called. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* Allow more than true/false to attributes.Junio C Hamano2007-04-171-1/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This allows you to define three values (and possibly more) to each attribute: true, false, and unset. Typically the handlers that notice and act on attribute values treat "unset" attribute to mean "do your default thing" (e.g. crlf that is unset would trigger "guess from contents"), so being able to override a setting to an unset state is actually useful. - If you want to set the attribute value to true, have an entry in .gitattributes file that mentions the attribute name; e.g. *.o binary - If you want to set the attribute value explicitly to false, use '-'; e.g. *.a -diff - If you want to make the attribute value _unset_, perhaps to override an earlier entry, use '!'; e.g. *.a -diff c.i.a !diff This also allows string values to attributes, with the natural syntax: attrname=attrvalue but you cannot use it, as nobody takes notice and acts on it yet.

* Add basic infrastructure to assign attributes to pathsJunio C Hamano2007-04-141-0/+16
This adds the basic infrastructure to assign attributes to paths, in a way similar to what the exclusion mechanism does based on $GIT_DIR/info/exclude and .gitignore files. An attribute is just a simple string that does not contain any whitespace. They can be specified in $GIT_DIR/info/attributes file, and .gitattributes file in each directory. Each line in these files defines a pattern matching rule. Similar to the exclusion mechanism, a later match overrides an earlier match in the same file, and entries from .gitattributes file in the same directory takes precedence over the ones from parent directories. Lines in $GIT_DIR/info/attributes file are used as the lowest precedence default rules. A line is either a comment (an empty line, or a line that begins with a '#'), or a rule, which is a whitespace separated list of tokens. The first token on the line is a shell glob pattern. The rest are names of attributes, each of which can optionally be prefixed with '!'. Such a line means "if a path matches this glob, this attribute is set (or unset -- if the attribute name is prefixed with '!'). For glob matching, the same "if the pattern does not have a slash in it, the basename of the path is matched with fnmatch(3) against the pattern, otherwise, the path is matched with the pattern with FNM_PATHNAME" rule as the exclusion mechanism is used. This does not define what an attribute means. Tying an attribute to various effects it has on git operation for paths that have it will be specified separately.
