The fast-import stream format requires incremental changes which take place immediately, meaning that for D->F conversions all files below the relevant directory must be deleted before the resulting file of the same name is created. Reversing the order can result in fast-import silently deleting the file right after creating it, resulting in the file missing from the resulting repository. We correct this by first sorting the diff_queue_struct in depth-first order.

This patch is my attempt to do precisely that. builtin/fast-export.c | 29 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ t/t9350-fast-export.sh | 2 +- 2 files changed, 30 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-) diff --git a/builtin/fast-export.c b/builtin/fast-export.c index c6dd71a..965e90e 100644 --- a/builtin/fast-export.c +++ b/builtin/fast-export.c @@ -147,10 +147,39 @@ static void handle_object(const unsigned char *sha1) free(buf); } +static int depth_first(const void *a_, const void *b_) +{ + const struct diff_filepair *a = *((const struct diff_filepair **)a_); + const struct diff_filepair *b = *((const struct diff_filepair **)b_); + const char *name_a, *name_b; + int len_a, len_b, len; + int cmp; + + name_a = a->one ? a->one->path : a->two->path; + name_b = b->one ? b->one->path : b->two->path; + + len_a = strlen(name_a); + len_b = strlen(name_b); + len = (len_a < len_b) ? len_a : len_b; + + /* strcmp will sort 'd' before 'd/e', we want 'd/e' before 'd' */ + cmp = memcmp(name_a, name_b, len); + if (cmp) + return cmp; + return (len_b - len_a); +} + static void show_filemodify(struct diff_queue_struct *q, struct diff_options *options, void *data) { int i; + + /* + * Handle files below a directory first, in case they are all deleted + * and the directory changes to a file or symlink. + */ + qsort(q->queue, q->nr, sizeof(q->queue[0]), depth_first); + for (i = 0; i < q->nr; i++) { struct diff_filespec *ospec = q->queue[i]->one; struct diff_filespec *spec = q->queue[i]->two; diff --git a/t/t9350-fast-export.sh b/t/t9350-fast-export.sh index 69179c6..1ee1461 100755 --- a/t/t9350-fast-export.sh +++ b/t/t9350-fast-export.sh @@ -376,7 +376,7 @@ test_expect_success 'tree_tag-obj' 'git fast-export tree_tag-obj' test_expect_success 'tag-obj_tag' 'git fast-export tag-obj_tag' test_expect_success 'tag-obj_tag-obj' 'git fast-export tag-obj_tag-obj' -test_expect_failure 'directory becomes symlink' ' +test_expect_success 'directory becomes symlink' ' git init dirtosymlink && git init result && ( -- 1.7.1.1.23.gafea6 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
