* builtin: remove USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE from builtin.hJohn Cai2024-09-131-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of including USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE by default on every builtin, remove it from builtin.h and add it to all the builtins that include builtin.h (by definition, that means all builtins/*.c). Also, remove the include statement for repository.h since it gets brought in through builtin.h. The next step will be to migrate each builtin from having to use the_repository.

* builtin: add a repository parameter for builtin functionsJohn Cai2024-09-131-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | In order to reduce the usage of the global the_repository, add a parameter to builtin functions that will get passed a repository variable. This commit uses UNUSED on most of the builtin functions, as subsequent commits will modify the actual builtins to pass the repository parameter down.

* cache.h: remove this no-longer-used headerElijah Newren2023-06-211-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since this header showed up in some places besides just #include statements, update/clean-up/remove those other places as well. Note that compat/fsmonitor/fsm-path-utils-darwin.c previously got away with violating the rule that all files must start with an include of git-compat-util.h (or a short-list of alternate headers that happen to include it first). This change exposed the violation and caused it to stop building correctly; fix it by having it include git-compat-util.h first, as per policy.

* treewide: be explicit about dependence on gettext.hElijah Newren2023-03-211-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Dozens of files made use of gettext functions, without explicitly including gettext.h. This made it more difficult to find which files could remove a dependence on cache.h. Make C files explicitly include gettext.h if they are using it. However, while compat/fsmonitor/fsm-ipc-darwin.c should also gain an include of gettext.h, it was left out to avoid conflicting with an in-flight topic.

|\ \ | |/ |/| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After checking out a "branch" that is a symbolic-ref that points at another branch, "git symbolic-ref HEAD" reports the underlying branch, not the symbolic-ref the user gave checkout as argument.

Further imagine that your project recently tagged the official 2.38 release, which means you would need to start maint-2.38 track soon, by doing: $ git checkout -b maint-2.38 v2.38.0^0 $ git branch --list 'maint-2.3[6-9]' * maint-2.38 maint-2.36 maint-2.37 So far, so good. But it also is reasonable to want not to have to worry about which maintenance track is the latest, by pointing a more generic-sounding 'maint' branch at it, by doing: $ git symbolic-ref refs/heads/maint refs/heads/maint-2.38 which would allow you to say "whichever it is, check out the latest maintenance track", by doing: $ git checkout maint $ git branch --show-current maint-2.38 It is arguably better to say that we are on 'maint-2.38' rather than on 'maint', and "git merge/pull" would record "into maint-2.38" and not "into maint", so I think what we have is a good behaviour. One thing that is slightly irritating, however, is that I do not think there is a good way (other than "cat .git/HEAD") to learn that you checked out 'maint' to get into that state. Just like the output of "git branch --show-current" shows above, "git symbolic-ref HEAD" would report 'refs/heads/maint-2.38', bypassing the intermediate symbolic ref at 'refs/heads/maint' that is pointed at by HEAD. The internal resolve_ref() API already has the necessary support for stopping after resolving a single level of a symbolic-ref, and we can expose it by adding a "--[no-]recurse" option to the command.

* | symbolic-ref: refuse to set syntactically invalid targetLinus Torvalds2022-08-011-0/+2
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | You can feed absolute garbage to symbolic-ref as a target like: git symbolic-ref HEAD refs/heads/foo..bar While this doesn't technically break the repo entirely (our "is it a git directory" detector looks only for "refs/" at the start), we would never resolve such a ref, as the ".." is invalid within a refname. Let's flag these as invalid at creation time to help the caller realize that what they're asking for is bogus. A few notes: - We use REFNAME_ALLOW_ONELEVEL here, which lets: git update-ref refs/heads/foo FETCH_HEAD continue to work. It's unclear whether anybody wants to do something so odd, but it does work now, so this is erring on the conservative side. There's a test to make sure we didn't accidentally break this, but don't take that test as an endorsement that it's a good idea, or something we might not change in the future. - The test in t4202-log.sh checks how we handle such an invalid ref on the reading side, so it has to be updated to touch the HEAD file directly. - We need to keep our HEAD-specific check for "does it start with refs/". The ALLOW_ONELEVEL flag means we won't be enforcing that for other refs, but HEAD is special here because of the checks in validate_headref().

* delete_ref: accept a reflog message argumentKyle Meyer2017-02-211-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the current branch is renamed with 'git branch -m/-M' or deleted with 'git update-ref -m<msg> -d', the event is recorded in HEAD's log with an empty message. In preparation for adding a more meaningful message to HEAD's log in these cases, update delete_ref() to take a message argument and pass it along to ref_transaction_delete(). Modify all callers to pass NULL for the new message argument; no change in behavior is intended. Note that this is relevant for HEAD's log but not for the deleted ref's log, which is currently deleted along with the ref. Even if it were not, an entry for the deletion wouldn't be present in the deleted ref's log. files_transaction_commit() writes to the log if REF_NEEDS_COMMIT or REF_LOG_ONLY are set, but lock_ref_for_update() doesn't set REF_NEEDS_COMMIT for the deleted ref because REF_DELETING is set. In contrast, the update for HEAD has REF_LOG_ONLY set by split_head_update(), resulting in the deletion being logged.

* symbolic-ref -d: do not allow removal of HEADJunio C Hamano2016-09-021-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | If you delete the symbolic-ref HEAD from a repository, Git no longer considers the repository valid, and even "git symbolic-ref HEAD refs/heads/master" would not be able to recover from that state (although "git init" can, but that is a sure sign that you are talking about a "broken" repository). In the spirit similar to afe5d3d5 ("symbolic ref: refuse non-ref targets in HEAD", 2009-01-29), forbid removal of HEAD to avoid corrupting a repository.

* refs.c: change resolve_ref_unsafe reading argument to be a flags fieldRonnie Sahlberg2014-10-151-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | resolve_ref_unsafe takes a boolean argument for reading (a nonexistent ref resolves successfully for writing but not for reading). Change this to be a flags field instead, and pass the new constant RESOLVE_REF_READING when we want this behaviour. While at it, swap two of the arguments in the function to put output arguments at the end. As a nice side effect, this ensures that we can catch callers that were unaware of the new API so they can be audited. Give the wrapper functions resolve_refdup and read_ref_full the same treatment for consistency.

We usually refrain from making this kind of a tree-wide change in order to avoid unnecessary conflicts with other "real work" patches, but in this case, the end result does not have a potentially cumbersome tree-wide impact, while this is a tree-wide cleanup. Fixes to compat/regex/regcomp.c and xdiff/xemit.c are to replace a HT immediately after && with a SP. This is based on Felipe's patch to bultin/symbolic-ref.c; I did all the finding out what other files in the whole tree need to be fixed and did the fix and also the log message while reviewing that single liner, so any screw-ups in this version are mine.

NOTE! If you do this in a clean tree (no object files etc), or using an editor that has auto-completion rules that ignores '*.o' files, you won't see that annoying 'Display all 180 possibilities?' message - it will just show the choices instead. I think bash has some cut-off around 100 choices or something. So the reason I see this is that I'm using an odd editory, and thus don't have the rules to cut down on auto-completion. But you can simulate that by using 'ls' instead, or something similar. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
