There are many safety/correctness related checks that check_index enables, and that is why not just the "--index" option, but "--3way" and "--cached" enable it internally. As "instead of adding the contents to the index, mark the new path with i-t-a bit" is also futzing with the index, it should enable the same safety checks by enabling check_index _much_ earlier. And if you did so, the above hunk will become a totally unnecessary change, because by the time the control gets there, because you accepted ita_only earlier and enabled check_index, just like you did for "--3way" and "--cached". One thing that check_index does is that it drops unsafe_paths bit, which means we would be protected from patch application that tries to step out of our narrow cone of the directory hierarchy, which is a safety measure. There are probably others I am forgetting. Can you study the code to decide if check_apply_state() is the right place to do this instead? I have this feeling that the following bit in the function if (state->ita_only && (state->check_index || is_not_gitdir)) state->ita_only = 0; is simply _wrong_ to silently drop the ita_only bit when not in a repository, or other index-touching options are in effect. Rather, I wonder if it should look more like the attached (the other parts of the implementation of ita_only may be depending on the buggy construct, which might result in other breakages if we did this alone, though).

All the existing tests and your new test seem to pass with the "-N should imply --index" fix. It could merely be an indication that our test coverage is horrible, but I _think_ the intent of "-N" is to behave like "--index" does, but handle creation part slightly differently. Of course there is another possible interpretation for "-N", which is to behave unlike "--index" and touch _only_ the working tree files, but creations are recorded as if "git add -N" were run for new paths after such a "working tree only" application was done. I cannot tell if that is what you wanted to implement; the new test in your patch seems to pass with the first interpretation. ----- >8 --------- >8 --------- >8 --------- >8 --------- >8 ----- Subject: [PATCH] apply: --intent-to-add should imply --index Otherwise we do not read the current index, and more importantly, we do not check with the current index, losing all the safety.

I'm still not entirely sure, but the ita-implies-check_index seems simpler overall, which is a good sign. It will prevent "apply -N" from modifying untracked files, which seems like a good safety measure. > > ----- >8 --------- >8 --------- >8 --------- >8 --------- >8 ----- > Subject: [PATCH] apply: --intent-to-add should imply --index > > Otherwise we do not read the current index, and more importantly, we > do not check with the current index, losing all the safety.

And the worst part of the story is that we still write the result out to the index, which loses all the files that are not mentioned in the incoming patch. Make --intent-to-add imply --index. This means that apply --intent-to-add will error without a repo, and refuse to modify untracked files (except for added files). Add a test for the latter, and another one to make sure that combinations like "--cached -N" keep working. as documented (-N is ignored, otherwise it would do weird things to the index). Use --intent-to-add instead of -N because we don't document -N in git-apply.txt, which might be because it's much more obscure than "add -N".

Most importantly this adds a test to show the difference between v2 (where ita did not imply check_index). I wrapped the doc changes to 80 columns, but not the entire paragraph, since we are inconsistent about that.

There are probably others I am forgetting. To be clear, check_index *disables* the unsafe_paths check, but it enables a stronger check: verify_index_match(), which makes sure that the touched paths exist in the index. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 12+ messages in thread
