[PATCH v2 1/2] builtin/config.c: treat type specifiers singularly

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

 



Internally, we represent `git config`'s type specifiers as a bitset
using OPT_BIT. 'bool' is 1<<0, 'int' is 1<<1, and so on. This technique
allows for the representation of multiple type specifiers in the `int
types` field, but this multi-representation is left unused.

In fact, `git config` will not accept multiple type specifiers at a
time, as indicated by:

  $ git config --int --bool some.section
  error: only one type at a time.

This patch uses `OPT_SET_INT` to prefer the _last_ mentioned type
specifier, so that the above command would instead be valid, and a
synonym of:

  $ git config --bool some.section

This change is motivated by two urges: (1) it does not make sense to
represent a singular type specifier internally as a bitset, only to
complain when there are multiple bits in the set. `OPT_SET_INT` is more
well-suited to this task than `OPT_BIT` is. (2) a future patch will
introduce `--type=<type>`, and we would like not to complain in the
following situation:

  $ git config --int --type=int

Where--although the legacy and modern type specifier (`--int`, and
`--type`, respectively) do not conflict--we would store the value of
`--type=` in a `char *` and the `--int` as a bit in the `int` bitset.

In the above, when error-checking `if (types != && type_str)`, we do not
check additionally whether or not these types are the same, and simply
complain immediately. This change makes `--int` and `--type=int` a true
synonym of each other, and removes the need for additional complexity,
as above in the conditional.
