[PATCH] revision.c: ignore broken tags with ignore_missing_links

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

 



When peeling a tag for prepare_revision_walk(), we do not
respect the ignore_missing_links flag. This can lead to a
bogus error when pack-objects walks the possibly-broken
unreachable-but-recent part of the object graph.

The other link-following all happens via traverse_commit_list(),
which explains why this case was missed. And our tests
covered only broken links from commits. Let's be more
comprehensive and cover broken tree entries (which do work)
and tags (which shows off this bug).

So here's the fix I showed earlier polished up as a real patch. I still
think your patch to improve the error message is a good suggestion. I
was going to just re-send it out on top of this, but I realized it was
missing your signoff. Do you want to resend?
