is_hfs_dotgit: loosen over-eager match of \u{..47}

2014-12-29T20:06:27Z

Our is_hfs_dotgit function relies on the hackily-implemented next_hfs_char to give us the next character that an HFS+ filename comparison would look at. It's hacky because it doesn't implement the full case-folding table of HFS+; it gives us just enough to see if the path matches ".git". At the end of next_hfs_char, we use tolower() to convert our 32-bit code point to lowercase. Our tolower() implementation only takes an 8-bit char, though; it throws away the upper 24 bits. This means we can't have any false negatives for is_hfs_dotgit. We only care about matching 7-bit ASCII characters in ".git", and we will correctly process 'G' or 'g'. However, we _can_ have false positives. Because we throw away the upper bits, code point \u{0147} (for example) will look like 'G' and get downcased to 'g'. It's not known whether a sequence of code points whose truncation ends up as ".git" is meaningful in any language, but it does not hurt to be more accurate here. We can just pass out the full 32-bit code point, and compare it manually to the upper and lowercase characters we care about. Signed-off-by: Jeff King Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

utf8: add is_hfs_dotgit() helper

We do not allow paths with a ".git" component to be added to the index, as that would mean repository contents could overwrite our repository files. However, asking "is this path the same as .git" is not as simple as strcmp() on some filesystems. HFS+'s case-folding does more than just fold uppercase into lowercase (which we already handle with strcasecmp). It may also skip past certain "ignored" Unicode code points, so that (for example) ".gi\u200ct" is mapped ot ".git". The full list of folds can be found in the tables at: https://www.opensource.apple.com/source/xnu/xnu-1504.15.3/bsd/hfs/hfscommon/Unicode/UCStringCompareData.h Implementing a full "is this path the same as that path" comparison would require us importing the whole set of tables. However, what we want to do is much simpler: we only care about checking ".git". We know that 'G' is the only thing that folds to 'g', and so on, so we really only need to deal with the set of ignored code points, which is much smaller.
