[PATCH] Make locked paths absolute when current directory is changed

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

 



Locked paths are saved in a linked list so that if something wrong
happens, *.lock are removed. This works fine if we keep cwd the same,
which is true 99% of time except:

 - update-index and read-tree hold the lock on $GIT_DIR/index really
   early, then later on may call setup_work_tree() to move cwd.

 - Suppose a lock is being held (e.g. by "git add") then somewhere
   down the line, somebody calls real_path (e.g. "link_alt_odb_entry"),
   which temporarily moves cwd away and back.

During that time when cwd is moved (either permanently or temporarily)
and we decide to die(), attempts to remove relative *.lock will fail,
and the next operation will complain that some files are still locked.

Avoid this case by turning relative paths to absolute when chdir() is
called (or soon to be called, in setup_git_directory_gently case).

 It occurred to me while writing this commit message that it would be
 better if we can unlink via a file descriptor so we don't have to
 convert paths. But I'm not sure about the availability of unlinkat(),
 especially on Windows.
