clean: require double -f options to nuke nested git repository and work tree

2009-07-29T19:22:30Z

When you have an embedded git work tree in your work tree (be it an orphaned submodule, or an independent checkout of an unrelated project), "git clean -d -f" blindly descended into it and removed everything. This is rarely what the user wants. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

Simplify read_directory[_recursive]() arguments

2009-07-09T08:11:28Z

Stop the insanity with separate 'path' and 'base' arguments that must match. We don't need that crazy interface any more, since we cleaned up handling of 'path' in commit da4b3e8c28b1dc2b856d2555ac7bb47ab712598c. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

Add 'fill_directory()' helper function for directory traversal

2009-07-09T08:11:26Z

Most of the users of "read_directory()" actually want a much simpler interface than the whole complex (but rather powerful) one. In fact 'git add' had already largely abstracted out the core interface issues into a private "fill_directory()" function that was largely applicable almost as-is to a number of callers. Yes, 'git add' wants to do some extra work of its own, specific to the add semantics, but we can easily split that out, and use the core as a generic function. This function does exactly that, and now that much simplified 'fill_directory()' function can be shared with a number of callers, while also ensuring that the rather more complex calling conventions of read_directory() are used by fewer call-sites. This also makes the 'common_prefix()' helper function private to dir.c, since all callers are now in that file. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

Turn the flags in struct dir_struct into a single variable

2009-02-18T19:04:19Z

By having flags represented as bits in the new member variable 'flags', it will be easier to use parse_options when dir_struct is involved. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

Allow cloning to an existing empty directory

2009-01-11T21:26:29Z

The die() message updated accordingly. The previous behaviour was to only allow cloning when the destination directory doesn't exist. [jc: added trivial tests] Signed-off-by: Alexander Potashev Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

add is_dot_or_dotdot inline function

2009-01-11T21:21:57Z

A new inline function is_dot_or_dotdot is used to check if the directory name is either "." or "..". It returns a non-zero value if the given string is "." or "..". It's applicable to a lot of Git source code. Signed-off-by: Alexander Potashev Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

dir.c: make dir_add_name() and dir_add_ignored() static

2008-10-03T00:46:09Z

These functions are not used by any other file. Signed-off-by: Nanako Shiraishi Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce

Add remove_path: a function to remove as much as possible of a path

2008-09-29T15:37:07Z

The function has two potential users which both managed to get wrong their implementations (the one in builtin-rm.c one has a memleak, and builtin-merge-recursive.c scribles over its const argument). Signed-off-by: Alex Riesen Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce

gitignore: lazily find dtype

2008-02-05T08:46:49Z

When we process "foo/" entries in gitignore files on a system that does not have d_type member in "struct dirent", the earlier implementation ran lstat(2) separately when matching with entries that came from the command line, in-tree .gitignore files, and $GIT_DIR/info/excludes file. This optimizes it by delaying the lstat(2) call until it becomes absolutely necessary. The initial idea for this change was by Jeff King, but I optimized it further to pass pointers to around.

gitignore(5): Allow "foo/" in ignore list to match directory "foo"

2008-02-05T08:46:49Z

A pattern "foo/" in the exclude list did not match directory "foo", but a pattern "foo" did. This attempts to extend the exclude mechanism so that it would while not matching a regular file or a symbolic link "foo". In order to differentiate a directory and non directory, this passes down the type of path being checked to excluded() function. A downside is that the recursive directory walk may need to run lstat(2) more often on systems whose "struct dirent" do not give the type of the entry; earlier it did not have to do so for an excluded path, but we now need to figure out if a path is a directory before deciding to exclude it. This is especially bad because an idea similar to the earlier CE_UPTODATE optimization to reduce number of lstat(2) calls would by definition not apply to the codepaths involved, as (1) directories will not be registered in the index, and (2) excluded paths will not be in the index anyway.
