From: Johannes Sixt <j6t@xxxxxxxx> We want to use static lookup_env() in a subsequent change. At first sight, this change looks innocent. But it is not due to the #undef getenv. There is one caller of getenv between the old location and the new location whose behavior could change. But as can be seen from the defintion of mingw_getenv, the behavior for this caller does not change substantially. To ensure consistent behavior in the future, change all getenv callers in mingw.c to use mingw_getenv. With this patch, this is not a big deal, yet, but with the subsequent change, where we teach getenv to do a case-sensitive lookup, the behavior of all call sites is changed. Signed-off-by: Johannes Sixt <j6t@xxxxxxxx> --- Erik, Dscho, the 4msysgit tree has additional calls of getenv in mingw.c. You might want to update them to call mingw_getenv() instead. But then not doing so would not have a dramatic effect. It is similar to GIT_ASK_YESNO: People can still set Git_Ask_YesNo, and it will work in the same way as usual, *unless* they also have GIT_ASK_YESNO set as well (and with a different value). compat/mingw.c | 30 +++++++++++++++--------------- 1 files changed, 15 insertions(+), 15 deletions(-) diff --git a/compat/mingw.c b/compat/mingw.c index e085e8b..ee480f9 100644 --- a/compat/mingw.c +++ b/compat/mingw.c @@ -178,7 +178,7 @@ static int ask_yes_no_if_possible(const char *format, ...) vsnprintf(question, sizeof(question), format, args); va_end(args); - if ((retry_hook[0] = getenv("GIT_ASK_YESNO"))) { + if ((retry_hook[0] = mingw_getenv("GIT_ASK_YESNO"))) { retry_hook[1] = question; return !run_command_v_opt(retry_hook, 0); } @@ -599,19 +599,6 @@ char *mingw_getcwd(char *pointer, int len) return ret; } -#undef getenv -char *mingw_getenv(const char *name) -{ - char *result = getenv(name); - if (!result && !strcmp(name, "TMPDIR")) { - /* on Windows it is TMP and TEMP */ - result = getenv("TMP"); - if (!result) - result = getenv("TEMP"); - } - return result; -} - /* * See http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/17w5ykft(vs.71).aspx * (Parsing C++ Command-Line Arguments) @@ -711,7 +698,7 @@ static const char *parse_interpreter(const char *cmd) */ static char **get_path_split(void) { - char *p, **path, *envpath = getenv("PATH"); + char *p, **path, *envpath = mingw_getenv("PATH"); int i, n = 0; if (!envpath || !*envpath) @@ -1128,6 +1115,19 @@ char **make_augmented_environ(const char *const *vars) return env; } +#undef getenv +char *mingw_getenv(const char *name) +{ + char *result = getenv(name); + if (!result && !strcmp(name, "TMPDIR")) { + /* on Windows it is TMP and TEMP */ + result = getenv("TMP"); + if (!result) + result = getenv("TEMP"); + } + return result; +} + /* * Note, this isn't a complete replacement for getaddrinfo.
