* peel_onion(): add support for <rev>^{tag}Richard Hansen2013-09-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Complete the <rev>^{<type>} family of object descriptors by having <rev>^{tag} dereference <rev> until a tag object is found (or fail if unable). At first glance this may not seem very useful, as commits, trees, and blobs cannot be peeled to a tag, and a tag would just peel to itself. However, this can be used to ensure that <rev> names a tag object: $ git rev-parse --verify v1.8.4^{tag} 04f013dc38d7512eadb915eba22efc414f18b869 $ git rev-parse --verify master^{tag} error: master^{tag}: expected tag type, but the object dereferences to tree type fatal: Needed a single revision Users can already ensure that <rev> is a tag object by checking the output of 'git cat-file -t <rev>', but: * users may expect <rev>^{tag} to exist given that <rev>^{commit}, <rev>^{tree}, and <rev>^{blob} all exist * this syntax is more convenient/natural in some circumstances Signed-off-by: Richard Hansen <rhansen@bbn.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
* test: fix '&&' chainingRamkumar Ramachandra2011-12-08
| | | | | | | | | | Breaks in a test assertion's && chain can potentially hide failures from earlier commands in the chain by adding " &&" at the end of line to the commands that need them.

* get_sha1: support $commit^{/regex} syntaxNguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy2010-12-14
This works like ":/regex" syntax that finds a recently created commit starting from all refs, but limits the discovery to those reachable from the named commit. Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclouds@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
