[PATCH 3/3] cat-file: add --follow-symlinks to --batch

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

 



This wires the in-repo-symlink following code through to the cat-file
builtin.  In the event of an out-of-repo link, cat-file will print
the link in a new format.

+--follow-symlinks::
+	With --batch or --batch-check, follow symlinks inside the
+	repository when requesting objects with extended SHA-1
+	expressions of the form tree-ish:path-in-tree.  Instead of
+	providing output about the link itself, provide output about
+	the linked-to object.  If a symlink points outside the
+	tree-ish (e.g. a link to /foo or a root-level link to ../foo),
+	the portion of the link which is outside the tree will be
+	printed.
+[normal]
+	This option does not (currently) work correctly when an
+	object in the index is specified (e.g. `:link` instead of
+	`HEAD:link`) rather than one in the tree.
+[normal]
+	This option cannot be used unless `--batch` or `--batch-check`
+	is used, because it would be impossible to distinguish between
+	the output for an out-of-repo symlink, and the contents of a
+	blob.
+[normal]
+	For example, consider a git repository containing:
++
+--
+	f: a file containing "hello\n"
+	link: a symlink to f
+	dir/link: a symlink to ../f
+	plink: a symlink to ../f
+	alink: a symlink to /etc/passwd
+--
+[normal]
+	For a regular file `f`, `echo HEAD:f | git cat-file --batch` would
+	print
++
+--
+	ce013625030ba8dba906f756967f9e9ca394464a blob 6
+--
+[normal]
+	And `echo HEAD:link | git cat-file --batch --follow-symlinks`
+	would print the same thing, as would `HEAD:dir/link`, as they
+	both point at `HEAD:f`.
+[normal]
+	Without `--follow-symlinks`, these would print data about the
+	symlink itself.  In the case of `HEAD:link`, you would see
++
+--
+	4d1ae35ba2c8ec712fa2a379db44ad639ca277bd blob 1
+--
+[normal]
+	Both `plink` and `alink` point outside the tree, so they would
+	respectively print:
++
+--
+	symlink 4
+	../f
+
+	symlink 11
+	/etc/passwd

+If --follow-symlinks is used, and a symlink in the repository points
+outside the repository, then `cat-file` will ignore any custom format
+and print:
+
+------------
+symlink SP <size> LF
+<symlink> LF

+
+The symlink will either be absolute (beginning with a /), or relative
+to the tree root.  For instance, if dir/link points to ../../foo, then
+<symlink> will be ../foo.  <size> is the size of the symlink in bytes.

+If --follow-symlinks is used, the following error messages will be
+displayed:
