Three main points of this patch are: - For an explicit octal notation, the internal shared_repository variable is set to a negative value, so that we can tell "group" (which is to "OR" in 0660) and 0660 (which is to "SET" to 0660); - git-init did not set shared_repository variable early enough to affect the initial creation of many files, notably copied templates and the configuration. We set it very early when a command-line option specifies a custom value. - Many codepaths create files inside $GIT_DIR by various ways that all involve mkstemp(), and then call move_temp_to_file() to rename it to its final destination. We can add adjust_shared_perm() call here; for the traditional "loosen-only", this would be a no-op for many codepaths because the mode is already loose enough, but with the new behaviour it makes a difference.

* git init: --bare/--shared overrides system/global configDeskin Miller2008-10-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If core.bare or core.sharedRepository are set in /etc/gitconfig or ~/.gitconfig, then 'git init' will read the values when constructing a new config file; reading them, however, will override the values specified on the command line. In the case of --bare, this ends up causing a segfault, without the repository being properly initialised; in the case of --shared, the permissions are set according to the existing config settings, not what was specified on the command line. This fix saves any specified values for --bare and --shared prior to reading existing config settings, and restores them after reading but before writing the new config file. core.bare is ignored in all situations, while core.sharedRepository will only be used if --shared is not specified to git init. Also includes testcases which use a specified global config file override, demonstrating the former failure scenario. Signed-off-by: Deskin Miller <deskinm@umich.edu> Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

* init: handle empty "template" parameterJeff King2008-07-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a user passes "--template=", then our template parameter is blank. Unfortunately, copy_templates() assumes it has at least one character, and does all sorts of bad things like reading from template[-1] and then proceeding to link all of '/' into the .git directory. This patch just checks for that condition in copy_templates and aborts. As a side effect, this means that --template= now has the meaning "don't copy any templates."

* | Move code interpreting path relative to exec-dir to new function system_path()Steffen Prohaska2008-07-13
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Expanding system paths relative to git_exec_path can be used for creating an installation that can be moved to a different directory without re-compiling. We use this approach for template_dir and the system wide gitconfig. The Windows installer (msysgit) is an example for such a setup. This commit moves common code to a new function system_path(). System paths that are to be interpreted relative to git_exec_path are passed to system_path() and the return value is used instead of the original path. system_path() prefixes a relative path with git_exec_path and leaves absolute paths unmodified. For example, we now write template_dir = system_path(DEFAULT_GIT_TEMPLATE_DIR); [j6t: moved from path.c to exec_cmd.c] Signed-off-by: Steffen Prohaska <prohaska@zib.de> Signed-off-by: Johannes Sixt <johannes.sixt@telecom.at> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

* Allow a relative builtin template directory.Johannes Sixt2007-11-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | In order to make git relocatable (i.e. not have the prefix compiled-in) the template directory must depend on the location where this git instance is found, which is GIT_EXEC_DIR.

* Fix initialization of a bare repositoryJunio C Hamano2007-08-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Here is my attempt to fix this with a minimally intrusive patch. * As "git --bare init" cannot tell if it was called with --bare or just "GIT_DIR=. git init", I added an explicit assignment of is_bare_repository_cfg on the codepath for "git --bare". * GIT_WORK_TREE alone without GIT_DIR does not make any sense, nor GIT_WORK_TREE with an explicit "git --bare". Catch that mistake. It might make sense to move this check to "git.c" side as well, but I tried to shoot for the minimum change for now. * Some scripts, especially from the olden days, rely on traditional GIT_DIR behaviour in "git init". Namely, these are some notable patterns: (create a bare repository) - mkdir some.git && cd some.git && GIT_DIR=. git init - mkdir some.git && cd some.git && git --bare init (create a non-bare repository) - mkdir .git && GIT_DIR=.git git init - mkdir .git && GIT_DIR=`pwd`/.git git init This comes with a new test script and also passes the existing test suite, but there may be cases that are still broken with the current tip of master and this patch does not yet fix. I'd appreciate help in straightening this mess out. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
* Clean up work-tree handlingJohannes Schindelin2007-08-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* Force core.filemode to false on Cygwin.Shawn O. Pearce2006-12-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Many users have noticed that core.filemode doesn't appear to be automatically set right on Cygwin when using a repository stored on NTFS. The issue is that Cygwin and NTFS correctly supports the executable mode bit, and Git properly detected that, but most native Windows applications tend to create files such that Cygwin sees the executable bit set when it probably shouldn't be. This is especially bad if the user's favorite editor deletes the file then recreates it whenever they save (vs. just overwriting) as now a file that was created with mode 0644 by checkout-index appears to have mode 0755. So we introduce NO_TRUSTABLE_FILEMODE, settable at compile time. Setting this option forces core.filemode to false, even if the detection code would have returned true.

* Enable reflogs by default in any repository with a working directory.Shawn O. Pearce2006-12-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | New and experienced Git users alike are finding out too late that they forgot to enable reflogs in the current repository, and cannot use the information stored within it to recover from an incorrectly entered command such as `git reset --hard HEAD^^^` when they really meant HEAD^^ (aka HEAD~2). So enable reflogs by default in all future versions of Git, unless the user specifically disables it with: [core] logAllRefUpdates = false in their .git/config or ~/.gitconfig. We only enable reflogs in repositories that have a working directory associated with them, as shared/bare repositories do not have an easy means to prune away old log entries, or may fail logging entirely if the user's gecos information is not valid during a push. This heuristic was suggested on the mailing list by Junio. Documentation was also updated to indicate the new default behavior. We probably should start to teach usuing the reflog to recover from mistakes in some of the tutorial material, as new users are likely to make a few along the way and will feel better knowing they can recover from them quickly and easily, without fsck-objects' lost+found features.

* Provide more meaningful output from 'git init-db'.Shawn O. Pearce2006-12-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Back in the old days of Git when people messed around with their GIT_DIR environment variable more often it was nice to know whether or not git-init-db created a .git directory or used GIT_DIR. As most users at that time were rather technical UNIXy folk the message "defaulting to local storage area" made sense to some and seemed reasonable. But it doesn't really convey any meaning to the new Git user, as they don't know what a 'local storage area is' nor do they know enough about Git to care. It also really doesn't tell the experienced Git user a whole lot about the command they just ran, especially if they might be reinitializing an existing repository (e.g. to update hooks). So now we print out what we did ("Initialized empty" or "Reinitialized existing"), what type of repository ("" or "shared"), and what location the repository will be in ("$GIT_DIR").

| * add receive.denyNonFastforwards config variableJohannes Schindelin2006-09-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If receive.denyNonFastforwards is set to true, git-receive-pack will deny non fast-forwards, i.e. forced updates. Most notably, a push to a repository which has that flag set will fail. As a first user, 'git-init-db --shared' sets this flag, since in a shared setup, you are most unlikely to want forced pushes to succeed.
