Rename core.unreliableHardlinks to core.createObject

2009-04-29T23:50:07Z

"Unreliable hardlinks" is a misleading description for what is happening. So rename it to something less misleading. Suggested by Linus Torvalds. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

Add an option not to use link(src, dest) && unlink(src) when that is unreliable

2009-04-25T16:49:21Z

It seems that accessing NTFS partitions with ufsd (at least on my EeePC) has an unnerving bug: if you link() a file and unlink() it right away, the target of the link() will have the correct size, but consist of NULs. It seems as if the calls are simply not serialized correctly, as single-stepping through the function move_temp_to_file() works flawlessly. As ufsd is "Commertial software" (sic!), I cannot fix it, and have to work around it in Git. At the same time, it seems that this fixes msysGit issues 222 and 229 to assume that Windows cannot handle link() && unlink().

Fix buffer overflow in config parser

2009-04-18T03:59:01Z

When interpreting a config value, the config parser reads in 1+ space character(s) and puts -one- space character in the buffer as soon as the first non-space character is encountered (if not inside quotes). Unfortunately the buffer size check lacks the extra space character which gets inserted at the next non-space character, resulting in a crash with a specially crafted config entry. The unit test now uses Java to compile a platform independent .NET framework to output the test string in C# :o) Read: Thanks to Johannes Sixt for the correct printf call which replaces the perl invocation.
