format-patch: do not feed tags to clear_commit_marks()

2015-06-01T23:02:52Z

"git format-patch --ignore-if-in-upstream A..B", when either A or B is a tag, failed miserably. This is because the code passes the tips it used for traversal to clear_commit_marks(), after running a temporary revision traversal to enumerate the commits on both branches to find if they have commits that make equivalent changes. The revision traversal machinery knows how to enumerate commits reachable starting from a tag, but clear_commit_marks() wants to take nothing but a commit. In the longer term, it might be a more correct fix to teach clear_commit_marks() to do the same "committish to commit" dereferencing that is done in the revision traversal machinery, but for now this fix should suffice.

t: fix trivial &&-chain breakage

2015-03-20T17:20:14Z

These are tests which are missing a link in their &&-chain, but during a setup phase. We may fail to notice failure in commands that build the test environment, but these are typically not expected to fail at all (but it's still good to double-check that our test environment is what we expect).

format-patch: add "--signature-file=" option

2014-05-27T19:38:32Z

Add an option to format-patch for reading a signature from a file. $ git format-patch -1 --signature-file=$HOME/.signature The config variable `format.signaturefile` can also be used to make this the default. $ git config format.signaturefile $HOME/.signature $ git format-patch -1 Signed-off-by: Jeremiah Mahler Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

t4014-format-patch.sh: use the $( ... ) construct for command substitution

2014-04-30T18:08:06Z

The Git CodingGuidelines prefer the $(...) construct for command substitution instead of using the backquotes `...`. The backquoted form is the traditional method for command substitution, and is supported by POSIX. However, all but the simplest uses become complicated quickly. In particular, embedded command substitutions and/or the use of double quotes require careful escaping with the backslash character. The patch was generated by: for _f in $(find . -name "*.sh") do sed -i 's@`$.*$`@$(\1)@g' ${_f} done and then carefully proof-read.

tests: use "env" to run commands with temporary env-var settings

2014-03-19T19:55:57Z

Ordinarily, we would say "VAR=VAL command" to execute a tested command with environment variable(s) set only for that command. This however does not work if 'command' is a shell function (most notably 'test_must_fail'); the result of the assignment is retained and affects later commands. To avoid this, we used to assign and export environment variables and run such a test in a subshell, like so: ( VAR=VAL && export VAR && test_must_fail git command to be tested ) But with "env" utility, we should be able to say: test_must_fail env VAR=VAL git command to be tested which is much shorter and easier to read.

t: use perl instead of "$PERL_PATH" where applicable

2013-10-29T19:45:15Z

As of the last commit, we can use "perl" instead of "$PERL_PATH" when running tests, as the former is now a function which uses the latter. As the shorter "perl" is easier on the eyes, let's switch to using it everywhere. This is not quite a mechanical s/$PERL_PATH/perl/ replacement, though. There are some places where we invoke perl from a script we generate on the fly, and those scripts do not have access to our internal shell functions. The result can be double-checked by running: ln -s /bin/false bin-wrappers/perl make test which continues to pass even after this patch. Signed-off-by: Jeff King Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

format-patch: print in-body "From" only when needed

2013-09-20T18:09:51Z

Commit a908047 taught format-patch the "--from" option, which places the author ident into an in-body from header, and uses the committer ident in the rfc822 from header. The documentation claims that it will omit the in-body header when it is the same as the rfc822 header, but the code never implemented that behavior. This patch completes the feature by comparing the two idents and doing nothing when they are the same (this is the same as simply omitting the in-body header, as the two are by definition indistinguishable in this case). This makes it reasonable to turn on "--from" all the time (if it matches your particular workflow), rather than only using it when exporting other people's patches.
