[PATCH] ls-files: properly prepare submodule environment

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

 



From: Jacob Keller <jacob.keller@xxxxxxxxx>

Since commit e77aa336f116 ("ls-files: optionally recurse into
submodules", 2016-10-07) ls-files has known how to recurse into
submodules when displaying files.

Unfortunately this code does not work as expected. Initially, it
produced results indicating that a --super-prefix can't be used from
a subdirectory:

  fatal: can't use --super-prefix from a subdirectory

After commit b58a68c1c187 ("setup: allow for prefix to be passed to git
commands", 2017-03-17) this behavior changed and resulted in repeated
calls of ls-files with an expanding super-prefix.

This recursive expanding super-prefix appears to be the result of
ls-files acting on the super-project instead of on the submodule files.

We can fix this by properly preparing the submodule environment when
setting up the submodule process. This ensures that the command we
execute properly reads the directory and ensures that we correctly
operate in the submodule instead of repeating oureslves on the
super-project contents forever.

While we're here lets also add some tests to ensure that ls-files works
with recurse-submodules to catch these issues in the future.

I found this fix on accident after looking at git-grep code and
comparing how ls-files instantiated the submodule. Can someone who knows
more about submodules explain the reasoning better for this fix?
Essentially we "recurse" into the submodule folder, but still operate as
if we're at the root of the project but with a new prefix. So then we
keep recursing into the submodule forever.

I also added some tests here, and I *definitely* think this should be a
maintenance backport into any place which supports ls-files
--recurse-submodules, since as far as I can tell it is otherwise
useless.

There were no tests for it, so I added some based on git-grep tests. I
did not try them against the broken setups, because of the endless
recursion.
