[PATCH/RFC v1 1/1] cygwin: Allow pushing to UNC paths

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

 



From: Torsten Bögershausen <tboegi@xxxxxx>

cygwin can use an UNC path like //server/share/repo
$ cd //server/share/dir
$ mkdir test
$ cd test
$ git init --bare

However, when we try to push from a local Git repository to this repo,
there are 2 problems:
- Git converts the leading "//" into a single "/".
- The remote repo is not accepted because setup.c calls
  access(getenv(DB_ENVIRONMENT), X_OK)
  and this call fails. In other words, checking the executable bit
  of a directory mounted on a SAMBA share is not reliable (and not needed).

As cygwin handles an UNC path so well, Git can support them better.
- Introduce cygwin_offset_1st_component() which keeps the leading "//",
  similar to what Git for Windows does.
- Move CYGWIN out of the POSIX in the tests for path normalization in t0060.
- Use cygwin_access() with a relaxed test for the executable bit on
  a directory pointed out by an UNC path.
