[WIP PATCH] Teach read-tree the -n|--dry-run option

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Using this option tells read-tree to not update the index. That makes it
possible to check if updating the index would be successful without
changing anything. Using this option will silently ignore -u.

The relevant tests in the t10?? range were extended to do a read-tree -n
before the real read-tree to make sure neither the index nor any local
files were changed with -n and the same exit code as without -n is
returned.

I added two convenience functions read_tree_u_must_[succeed|fail]() which
work pretty much the way read_tree_must_[succeed|fail]() do but with the
added functionality that they check git diff-files before and after the
read-tree -n too.

I went through all the test cases in the t10?? range and replaced every
relevant call to "git read-tree" with a call to one of those functions
(the only exception being plain resets of the work tree in tests that did
not test read-tree themselves).

The only exceptions where I could not make that replacement without
breaking a test were:

* t1001:381 (#25) new file conflicts with untracked directory
  This should have been detected by verify_absent_1(), but that function
  is left early when opts->update is 0. Will look into that.

* t1004:209 (#13) unlinking an un-unlink-able symlink
  This is an issue of wrong directory permissions, it should be ok that
  -n doesn't detect this as this is not a version control issue. I will
  document that in the commit message.

* 1011:95  (#5)  read-tree with empty .git/info/sparse-checkout
* t1011:163 (#11) read-tree updates worktree, dirty case
  Not sure about those two as I haven't got much experience with sparse
  checkout. Will dig further, pointers welcome.

Apart from these four all other tests look good.
