This requires passing the prefix down the call chain. This fixes two test cases for different reasons: * "unnormalized paths" is fixed because the .gitattribute-file-seeking code is not confused into reading the top-level file twice. * "relative paths" is fixed because the canonical pathnames are passed to get_checkattr() or get_allattrs(), allowing them to match the pathname patterns as expected. Signed-off-by: Michael Haggerty --- I had a very hard time figuring out the correct approach to fixing this problem. There is so little documentation in the C code! The suggested patch fixes the tests, but it might be wrong for other reasons: 1. I'm not sure whether it is correct to fix this problem at the level of git-check-attr, or whether the fix belongs in the API layer. What is the convention for API functions? Do they typically take path names relative to the CWD or relative to the working tree root, or ...? I also found examples of commands that change the current directory during their operation, making the CWD and the working tree root identical. What is preferred? (And where is it documented?) 2. It could be that I'm abusing the prefix_path() function, or that there is a better way to achieve the normalization. builtin/check-attr.c | 20 ++++++++++++-------- t/t0003-attributes.sh | 4 ++-- 2 files changed, 14 insertions(+), 10 deletions(-) diff --git a/builtin/check-attr.c b/builtin/check-attr.c index 781b7df..23a6e07 100644 --- a/builtin/check-attr.c +++ b/builtin/check-attr.c @@ -41,22 +41,26 @@ static void output_attr(int cnt, struct git_attr_value *check, } } -static void check_attr(int cnt, struct git_attr_value *check, - const char *file) +static void check_attr(const char *prefix, int cnt, + struct git_attr_value *check, const char *file) { + const char *full_path = + prefix_path(prefix, prefix ? strlen(prefix) : 0, file); if (check != NULL) { - if (git_checkattr(file, cnt, check)) + if (git_checkattr(full_path, cnt, check)) die("git_checkattr died"); output_attr(cnt, check, file); } else { - if (git_allattrs(file, &cnt, &check)) + if (git_allattrs(full_path, &cnt, &check)) die("git_allattrs died"); output_attr(cnt, check, file); free(check); } + free(full_path); } -static void check_attr_stdin_paths(int cnt, struct git_attr_value *check) +static void check_attr_stdin_paths(const char *prefix, int cnt, + struct git_attr_value *check) { struct strbuf buf, nbuf; int line_termination = null_term_line ? 0 : '\n'; @@ -70,7 +74,7 @@ static void check_attr_stdin_paths(int cnt, struct git_attr_value *check) die("line is badly quoted"); strbuf_swap(&buf, &nbuf); } - check_attr(cnt, check, buf.buf); + check_attr(prefix, cnt, check, buf.buf); maybe_flush_or_die(stdout, "attribute to stdout"); } strbuf_release(&buf); @@ -154,10 +158,10 @@ int cmd_check_attr(int argc, const char **argv, const char *prefix) } if (stdin_paths) - check_attr_stdin_paths(cnt, check); + check_attr_stdin_paths(prefix, cnt, check); else { for (i = filei; i < argc; i++) - check_attr(cnt, check, argv[i]); + check_attr(prefix, cnt, check, argv[i]); maybe_flush_or_die(stdout, "attribute to stdout"); } return 0; diff --git a/t/t0003-attributes.sh b/t/t0003-attributes.sh index f6cf77d..ae2f1da 100755 --- a/t/t0003-attributes.sh +++ b/t/t0003-attributes.sh @@ -93,7 +93,7 @@ test_expect_success 'attribute test' ' ' -test_expect_failure 'unnormalized paths' ' +test_expect_success 'unnormalized paths' ' attr_check ./f f && attr_check ./a/g a/g && @@ -102,7 +102,7 @@ test_expect_failure 'unnormalized paths' ' ' -test_expect_failure 'relative paths' ' +test_expect_success 'relative paths' ' (cd a && attr_check ../f f) && (cd a && attr_check f f) && -- 1.7.6.8.gd2879
