* Give no terminating LF to error() function.Junio C Hamano2006-02-22

* Disable USE_SYMLINK_HEAD by defaultPavel Roskin2006-01-19
| | | | | | | | | | | Disable USE_SYMLINK_HEAD by default. Recommend using it only for compatibility with older software. Treat USE_SYMLINK_HEAD like other optional defines - check whether it's defined, not its value. Signed-off-by: Pavel Roskin <proski@gnu.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

* We do not like "HEAD" as a new branch nameJohannes Schindelin2005-12-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This makes git-check-ref-format fail for "HEAD". Since the check is only executed when creating refs, the existing symbolic ref is safe. Otherwise these commands, most likely are pilot errors, would do pretty funky stuff: git checkout -b HEAD git pull . other:HEAD Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <Johannes.Schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* refs.c: make sure leading directories exist before writing a ref.Junio C Hamano2005-12-07
| | | | | | | Otherwise cloning a repository with hierarchical branch/tag over http would fail. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* Do not DWIM in userpath library under strict mode.Junio C Hamano2005-11-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This should force git-daemon administrator's job a bit harder because the exact paths need to be given in the whitelist, but at the same time makes the auditing easier. This moves validate_symref() from refs.c to path.c, because we need to link path.c with git-daemon for its "enter_repo()", but we do not want to link the daemon with the rest of git libraries and its requirements.

* Add config variable core.symrefsonlyJohannes Schindelin2005-11-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This allows you to force git to avoid symlinks for refs. Just add something like [core] symrefsonly = true to .git/config. DonĀ“t forget to "git checkout your_branch", or it does not do anything... Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* create_symref: if symlink fails, fall back to writing a "symbolic ref"Johannes Schindelin2005-10-25
| | | | | | | | | There are filesystems out there which do not understand symlinks, even if the OS is perfectly capable of writing them. So, do not fail right away, but try to write a symbolic ref first. If that fails, you can die().

* git-check-ref-format: reject funny ref names.Junio C Hamano2005-10-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Update check_ref_format() function to reject ref names that: * has a path component that begins with a ".", or * has a double dots "..", or * has ASCII control character, "~", "^", ":" or SP, anywhere, or * ends with a "/". Use it in 'git-checkout -b', 'git-branch', and 'git-tag' to make sure that newly created refs are well-formed. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* Unlocalized isspace and friendsLinus Torvalds2005-10-14
| | | | | | | | | Do our own ctype.h, just to get the sane semantics: we want locale-independence, _and_ we want the right signed behaviour. Plus we only use a very small subset of ctype.h anyway (isspace, isalpha, isdigit and isalnum). Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* [PATCH] Fix symbolic ref validationJonas Fonseca2005-10-05
| | | | | | | Use the correct buffer when validating 'ref: refs/...' Signed-off-by: Jonas Fonseca <fonseca@diku.dk> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* Add git-symbolic-refJunio C Hamano2005-10-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds the counterpart of git-update-ref that lets you read and create "symbolic refs". By default it uses a symbolic link to represent ".git/HEAD -> refs/heads/master", but it can be compiled to use the textfile symbolic ref. The places that did 'readlink .git/HEAD' and 'ln -s refs/heads/blah .git/HEAD' have been converted to use new git-symbolic-ref command, so that they can deal with either implementation.

* Use resolve_ref() to implement read_ref().Junio C Hamano2005-10-01
| | | | | | | Symbolic refs are understood by resolve_ref(), so existing read_ref() users will automatically understand them as well. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junio@twinsun.com>
* [PATCH] Allow reading "symbolic refs" that point to other refsLinus Torvalds2005-10-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This extends the ref reading to understand a "symbolic ref": a ref file that starts with "ref: " and points to another ref file, and thus introduces the notion of ref aliases. This is in preparation of allowing HEAD to eventually not be a symlink, but one of these symbolic refs instead. [jc: Linus originally required the prefix to be "ref: " five bytes and nothing else, but I changed it to allow and strip any number of leading whitespaces to match what update-ref.c does.] Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* [PATCH] Make do_each_ref() follow symlinks.Matt Draisey2005-08-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Because there is no reason not to, and this makes things a bit safer when running "git prune". [jc: I do not necessarily agree with the reasoning of the original author that it is a good way to keep "git prune" from stomping on objects to have a symlink that points at .git/refs of the repository A in the .git/refs of the repository B when repository A borrows object database from repository B. For one thing, the object database that everybody borrows objects from may not even have its own .git/refs hierarchy. Come to think of it, maybe we should disallow symlink inside .git/refs hierarchy; we update the files there by creat/rename pair, so having symlinks would not work anyway when you do anything that would update them.] Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* [PATCH] -Werror fixesTimo Sirainen2005-08-09
| | | | | | GCC's format __attribute__ is good for checking errors, especially with -Wformat=2 parameter. This fixes most of the reported problems against 2005-08-09 snapshot.
* Make "for_each_ref()" always use the "canonical" refname.Linus Torvalds2005-07-08
| | | | | | | | It always uses a git-relative pathname, ie "refs/heads/master" instead of ".git/refs/heads/master" or whatever your GIT_DIR might be. This way when we send refs back-and-forth between repositories, there's never any question about GIT_DIR on either side.
* Fix silly thinko in "head_ref()"Linus Torvalds2005-07-05
| | | | | It did a "for_each_ref()" in addition to the HEAD case, which was a left-over from an early broken test.
* Add "git_path()" and "head_ref()" helper functions.Linus Torvalds2005-07-05
| | | | | | | "git_path()" returns a static pathname pointer into the git directory using a printf-like format specifier. "head_ref()" works like "for_each_ref()", except for just the HEAD.
* Clean up output of "for_each_ref()" when GIT_DIR is "."Linus Torvalds2005-07-04
| | | | Remove the "./" at the head, it just looks much nicer.
* Fix up "for_each_ref()" to be more usable, and use it in git-fsck-cacheLinus Torvalds2005-07-03
| | | | | It needed to take the GIT_DIR information into account, something that the original receive-pack usage just never cared about.
* Generalize the "show each ref" code in receice-packLinus Torvalds2005-07-02
| | | | This turns it into a generic "do xyz for each ref" library function.
* [PATCH] Operations on refsDaniel Barkalow2005-06-06
This patch adds code to read a hash out of a specified file under {GIT_DIR}/refs/, and to write such files atomically and optionally with an compare and lock. Signed-off-by: Daniel Barkalow <barkalow@iabervon.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
