* use -h for synopsis and --help for manpage consistentlycb/do-not-pretend-to-hijack-long-helpClemens Buchacher2011-10-051-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | A few scripted Porcelain implementations pretend as if the routine to show their own help messages are triggered upon "git cmd --help", but a command line parser of "git" will hijack such a request and shows the manpage for the cmd subcommand. Leaving the code to handle such input is simply misleading. Signed-off-by: Clemens Buchacher <drizzd@aon.at> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

* require-work-tree wants more than what its name saysJunio C Hamano2011-05-241-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Somebody tried "git pull" from a random place completely outside the work tree, while exporting GIT_DIR and GIT_WORK_TREE that are set to correct places, e.g. GIT_WORK_TREE=$HOME/git.git GIT_DIR=$GIT_WORK_TREE/.git export GIT_WORK_TREE GIT_DIR cd /tmp git pull At the beginning of git-pull, we check "require-work-tree" and then "cd-to-toplevel". I _think_ the original intention when I wrote the command was "we MUST have a work tree, our $(cwd) might not be at the top-level directory of it", and no stronger than that. That check is a very sensible thing to do before doing cd-to-toplevel. We check that the place we would want to go exists, and then go there. But the implementation of require_work_tree we have today is quite different. I don't have energy to dig the history, but currently it says: test "$(git rev-parse --is-inside-work-tree 2>/dev/null)" = true || die "fatal: $0 cannot be used without a working tree." Which is completely bogus. Even though we may happen to be just outside of it right now, we may have a working tree that we can cd_to_toplevel back to. Add a function "require_work_tree_exists" that implements the check this function originally intended (this is so that third-party scripts that rely on the current behaviour do not have to get broken). For now, update _no_ in-tree scripts, not even "git pull", as nobody on the list seems to really care about the above corner case workflow that triggered this. Scripts can be updated after vetting that they do want the "we want to make sure the place we are going to go actually exists" semantics. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
* Porcelain scripts: Rewrite cryptic "needs update" error messageRamkumar Ramachandra2010-10-281-0/+29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Although Git interally has the facility to differentiate between porcelain and plubmbing commands and appropriately print errors, several shell scripts invoke plubming commands triggering cryptic plumbing errors to be displayed on a porcelain interface. This patch replaces the "needs update" message in git-pull and git-rebase, when `git update-index` is run, with a more friendly message.

For example, we may want to count number of matching lines, by "grep" piped to "wc -l", and GREP_OPTIONS=-C3 will break such use. The approach taken by this change to address this issue is to protect only our own use of grep/egrep. Because we do not unset it at the beginning of our scripts, hook scripts run from the scripted Porcelains are exposed to the same insanity this environment variable causes when grep/egrep is used to implement logic (e.g. "grep | wc -l"), and it is entirely up to the hook scripts to protect themselves. On the other hand, applypatch-msg hook may want to show offending words in the proposed commit log message using grep to the end user, and the user might want to set GREP_OPTIONS=--color to paint the match more visibly. The approach to protect only our own use without unsetting the environment variable globally will allow this use case. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

* | Makefile: insert SANE_TOOL_PATH to PATH before /bin or /usr/binJunio C Hamano2009-06-101-1/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In an earlier patch, we introduced SANE_TOOL_PATH that is prepended to user's PATH. This had an unintended consequence of overriding user's private binary directory that typically comes earlier in the PATH to holds even saner commands than whatever comes with the system. For example, a user may have ~/bin that is early in the path and contains a shell script "vi" that launches system's /bin/vi with specific options. Prepending SANE_TOOL_PATH to the PATH that happens to have "vi" in it defeats such customization. This fixes the issue by inserting SANE_TOOL_PATH just before /bin or /usr/bin appears on the PATH.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some platforms (like SunOS and family) have kept their common binaries at some historical moment in time, and introduced new binaries with modern features in a special location like /usr/xpg4/bin or /usr/ucb. Some of the features provided by these modern binaries are expected and required by git. If the featureful binaries are not in the users path, then git could end up using the less featureful binary and fail. So provide a mechanism to prepend elements to the users PATH at runtime so the modern binaries will be found.

* | git-sh-setup: Use "cd" option, not /bin/pwd, for symlinked work treeMarcel M. Cary2009-02-071-21/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In cd_to_toplevel, instead of 'cd $(unset PWD; /bin/pwd)/$path' use 'cd -P $path'. The "-P" option yields a desirable similarity to C chdir. While the "-P" option may be slightly less commonly supported than /bin/pwd, it is more concise, better tested, and less error prone. I've already added the 'unset PWD' to fix the /bin/pwd solution on BSD; there may be more edge cases out there. This still passes all the same test cases in t5521-pull-symlink.sh and t2300-cd-to-toplevel.sh, even before updating them to use 'pwd -P'. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On Mac OS X and possibly BSDs, /bin/pwd reads PWD from the environment if available and shows the logical path by default rather than the physical one. Unset PWD before running /bin/pwd in both cd_to_toplevel and its test. Still use the external /bin/pwd because in my Bash on Linux, the builtin pwd prints the same result whether or not PWD is set.

A build system's install step could solve this, but I develop scripts and web pages that don't need to be built. Git's submodule system could solve this, but we tend to develop, branch, and test those directories all in unison, so one big repository feels more natural. We prefer to edit and commit on the symlinked paths, not the canonical ones, and in that setting, "git pull" fails to find the top-level directory of the repository while other commands work fine. "git pull" fails because POSIX shells have a notion of current working directory that is different from getcwd(). The shell stores this path in PWD. As a result, "cd ../" can be interpreted differently in a shell script than chdir("../") in a C program. The shell interprets "../" by essentially stripping the last textual path component from PWD, whereas C chdir() follows the ".." link in the current directory on the filesystem. When PWD is a symlink, these are different destinations. As a result, Git's C commands find the correct top-level working tree, and shell scripts do not. Changes: * When interpreting a relative upward (../) path in cd_to_toplevel, prepend the cwd without symlinks, given by /bin/pwd * Add tests for cd_to_toplevel and "git pull" in a symlinked directory that failed before this fix, plus contrasting scenarios that already worked Signed-off-by: Marcel M.

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The previous code only allowed specifying a single executable rather than a complete command like "emacsclient --alternate-editor vi" in those variables. Since VISUAL/EDITOR appear to be traditionally passed to a shell for interpretation (as corroborated with "less", "mail" and "mailx", while the really ancient "more" indeed allows only an executable name), the shell function git_editor has been amended appropriately. "eval" is employed to have quotes and similar interpreted _after_ expansion, so that specifying EDITOR='"/home/dak/My Commands/notepad.exe"' can be used for actually using commands with blanks. Instead of passing just the first argument of git_editor on, we pass all of them (so that +lineno might be employed at a later point of time, or so that multiple files may be edited when appropriate). Strictly speaking, there is a change in behavior: when git config core.editor returns a valid but empty string, the fallbacks are still searched. This is more consistent, and the old code was problematic with regard to multiple blanks. Putting in additional quotes might have worked, but quotes inside of command substitution inside of quotes is nasty enough to not reliably work the same across "Bourne shells".

* Clean up work-tree handlingJohannes Schindelin2007-08-011-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The old version of work-tree support was an unholy mess, barely readable, and not to the point. For example, why do you have to provide a worktree, when it is not used? As in "git status". Now it works. Another riddle was: if you can have work trees inside the git dir, why are some programs complaining that they need a work tree? IOW it is allowed to call $ git --git-dir=../ --work-tree=. bla when you really want to. In this case, you are both in the git directory and in the working tree. So, programs have to actually test for the right thing, namely if they are inside a working tree, and not if they are inside a git directory. Also, GIT_DIR=../.git should behave the same as if no GIT_DIR was specified, unless there is a repository in the current working directory. It does now. The logic to determine if a repository is bare, or has a work tree (tertium non datur), is this: --work-tree=bla overrides GIT_WORK_TREE, which overrides core.bare = true, which overrides core.worktree, which overrides GIT_DIR/.. when GIT_DIR ends in /.git, which overrides the directory in which .git/ was found. In related news, a long standing bug was fixed: when in .git/bla/x.git/, which is a bare repository, git formerly assumed ../.. to be the appropriate git dir. This problem was reported by Shawn Pearce to have caused much pain, where a colleague mistakenly ran "git init" in "/" a long time ago, and bare repositories just would not work.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | At the moment, only git-commit uses that code, to pick the author name, email and date from a given commit. This code will be reused in git rebase --interactive. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
* | Use new semantics of is_bare/inside_git_dir/inside_work_treeMatthias Lederhofer2007-06-061-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Up to now to check for a working tree this was used: !is_bare && !inside_git_dir (the check for bare is redundant because is_inside_git_dir returned already 1 for bare repositories). Now the check is: inside_work_tree && !inside_git_dir Signed-off-by: Matthias Lederhofer <matled@gmx.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

* Commands requiring a work tree must not run in GIT_DIRJohannes Schindelin2007-02-051-1/+2
| | | | | | | | This patch helps when you accidentally run something like git-clean in the git directory instead of the work tree. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <Johannes.Schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

* Explain "Not a git repository: '.git'".Junio C Hamano2007-01-121-1/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Andy Parkins noticed that the error message some "whole tree" oriented commands emit is stated misleadingly when they refused to run from a subdirectory. We could probably allow some of them to work from a subdirectory but that is a semantic change that could have unintended side effects, so let's start at first by rewording the error message to be easier to read without doing anything else to be safe.

* Disallow working directory commands in a bare repository.Shawn O. Pearce2007-01-101-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the user tries to run a porcelainish command which requires a working directory in a bare repository they may get unexpected results which are difficult to predict and may differ from command to command. Instead we should detect that the current repository is a bare repository and refuse to run the command there, as there is no working directory associated with it.
