[PATCH 0/3] apply: handle traditional patches with spaces in filename

[Jonathan Nieder]

The goal: let ‘git apply’ handle such filenames as
“b/debian/licenses/LICENSE.Apache (v2.0)” in patches produced by
non-git tools without erroring out.

When we last left our heroes[1] in April:

> | The name and last modification time of each file shall be output in
> | the following format:
> |
> | "---[space]%s  %s%s%s", file1, <file1 timestamp>, <file1 frac>, <file1 zone>
> | "+++[space]%s  %s%s%s", file2, <file2 timestamp>, <file2 frac>, <file2 zone>
[...]
> If this is really describing the format of patches in the wild, that
> means we should only look for a tab character to terminate the filename.
[...]
> A big downside: this does not cope with copy-and-pasted patches with
> tabs transformed to spaces.  The example [2] consists mostly of
> file-creation patches, so we can’t look to the repository for hints.
> Maybe the space-plus-date-plus-newline sequence should be used as a
> delimiter.

It turns out that is not so hard.  Maybe it could be rewritten using
regcomp() and regexec(); if someone wants to do that, I won’t stop
them. ;-)

Patch 1 factors out a function to handle "GNU-format" C-style quoted
filenames in patches.  The only tool I know of that produces this
format is git; the discussion in [2] about what characters to escape
seems to have come to no conclusion.

Patch 2 adds some tests for all those weird characters that might
appear in a filename.  They abuse “diff” and “pr”; testing on weird
platforms would be helpful.

Patch 3 adds the logic to search for a date at the end of a filename
line, for traditional (non --git) patches only.  If no date is found
at the end, we return to the previous heuristic, except that the only
accepted filename terminator is a tab.  Whitespace damage is only
accepted if there is a timestamp at the end of the line.

Thoughts, suggestions, improvements welcome.

[PATCH 1/3] apply: Split quoted filename handling into new function

[Jonathan Nieder]

The new find_name_gnu() function handles new-style ‘--- "a/foo"’
patch header lines, leaving find_name() itself a bit less
daunting.

Functional change: do not clobber the p-value when there are not
enough path components in a quoted file name to honor it.

[PATCH 2/3] tests: Test how well "git apply" copes with weird filenames

[Jonathan Nieder]

The tests assume a reasonably well-behaved “diff -u” and “pr”
to produce the (possibly whitespace-damaged) patches.  On platforms
without those commands, skip the tests.

[PATCH 3/3] apply: Handle traditional patches with space in filename

[Jonathan Nieder]

To discover filenames from the --- and +++ lines in a traditional
unified diff, currently ‘git apply’ scans forward for a whitespace
character on each line and stops there.  It can’t use the whole line
because ‘diff -u’ likes to include timestamps, like so:

 --- foo	2000-07-12 16:56:50.020000414 -0500
 +++ bar	2010-07-12 16:56:50.020000414 -0500

The whitespace-seeking heuristic works great, even when the tab
has been converted to spaces by some email + copy-and-paste
related corruption.

Except for one problem: if the filename itself contains whitespace,
the inferred filename will be too short.

When Giuseppe ran into this problem, it was for a file creation
patch (filename ‘debian/licenses/LICENSE.global BSD-style Chromium’).
So one can’t use the list of files present in the index to deduce an
appropriate filename (not to mention that way lies madness; see
v0.99~402, 2005-05-31).

Instead, look for a timestamp and use that if present to mark the end
of the filename.  If no timestamp is present, the old heuristic is
used, with one exception: the space character \040 is not considered
terminating whitespace any more unless it is followed by a timestamp.

Guido, I have carried over your ack from <http://bugs.debian.org/578752>.
I hope that is okay.  And to both Guido and Giuseppe, sorry to have
taken so long on this.

That is the end of the series.  I hope it was not too unpleasant a read.
As always, thoughts, improvements, bugs welcome.

Regards,
Jonathan

Re: [PATCH 2/3] tests: Test how well "git apply" copes with weird filenames

Nothing at all.  Here’s a patch for squashing in.

Subject: t4135 (apply): use expand instead of pr for portability

expand is just the thing for expanding tabs into spaces, and
unlike pr -T, it is portable.  Use it.

[PATCH 1/3] apply: split quoted filename handling into new function

[Jonathan Nieder]

The new find_name_gnu() function handles new-style '--- "a/foo"'
patch header lines, leaving find_name() itself a bit less
daunting.

Functional change: do not clobber the p-value when there are not
enough path components in a quoted file name to honor it.
