Perhaps add a short phrase before the sentence, e.g. When 'git push --push-option=...' is used, the number of push options are avaiable ... or The number of push options given on the command line of "git push --push-option=..." can be read from the environment variable GIT_PUSH_OPTION_COUNT, and the options themselves are found in GIT_PUSH_OPTION_0, GIT_PUSH_OPTION_1,... We can read any of the above variants in two ways to describe what should happen when "git push" is run without "--push-option=...". Is GIT_PUSH_OPTION_COUNT unset, or set to 0? Either way, it may be better to be a bit more explicit. The hook driver code does not explicitly clear these environment variables; it is safe to assume that these won't seep in from the environment, I think, but I am not sure. > @@ -1756,6 +1771,7 @@ int cmd_receive_pack(int argc, const char **argv, const char *prefix) > > if ((commands = read_head_info(&shallow)) != NULL) { > const char *unpack_status = NULL; > + struct string_list *push_options = NULL; > > prepare_shallow_info(&si, &shallow); > if (!si.nr_ours && !si.nr_theirs) > @@ -1764,13 +1780,19 @@ int cmd_receive_pack(int argc, const char **argv, const char *prefix) > unpack_status = unpack_with_sideband(&si); > update_shallow_info(commands, &si, &ref); > } > - execute_commands(commands, unpack_status, &si); > + execute_commands(commands, unpack_status, &si, > + push_options); > if (pack_lockfile) > unlink_or_warn(pack_lockfile); > if (report_status) > report(commands, unpack_status); > - run_receive_hook(commands, "post-receive", 1); > + run_receive_hook(commands, "post-receive", 1, > + push_options); > run_update_post_hook(commands); > + if (push_options) { > + string_list_clear(push_options, 0); > + free(push_options); > + } > if (auto_gc) { > const char *argv_gc_auto[] = { > "gc", "--auto", "--quiet", NULL, > diff --git a/templates/hooks--pre-receive.sample b/templates/hooks--pre-receive.sample > new file mode 100644 > index 0000000..e4d3edc > --- /dev/null > +++ b/templates/hooks--pre-receive.sample > @@ -0,0 +1,22 @@ > +#!/bin/sh > +# > +# An example hook script to make use of push options. > +# The example simply echoes all push options that start with 'echoback=' > +# and rejects all pushes when the "reject" push option is used. > +# > +# To enable this hook, rename this file to "pre-receive". > + > +if test -n "$GIT_PUSH_OPTION_COUNT"; then > + i=0 > + while test "$i" -lt "$GIT_PUSH_OPTION_COUNT"; do Style: if test -n "$GIT_PUSH_OPTION_COUNT" then ... while test ... do ... > + eval "value=\$GIT_PUSH_OPTION_$i" > + case "$value" in > + echoback=*) > + echo "echo from the pre-receive-hook ${value#*=}" >&2 > + ;; > + reject) > + exit 1 > + esac > + i=$((i + 1)) > + done > +fi What is suboptimal about the structure of the series is that we won't bisect down to any of the potential bugs in the above code even if we ever see any bug in the future. It also does not hint where push_options is expected to be read in the code in the subsequent patches in the series. If I were doing this series, I would probably have done 2/4 first without plumbing it through (i.e. it is sent and accumulated in a string list at the receiver, and then cleared and freed without being used), and then added the processing (i.e. this step) as the second patch. -- 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
