[PATCH 1/2] parse-options: allow for configuring option abbreviation

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

 



Add a new core.abbreviatedOptions which corresponds to the newly added
GIT_TEST_DISALLOW_ABBREVIATED_OPTIONS test mode. This allows
e.g. script authors to enact the same sort of paranoia about option
abbreviation as our own test suite now uses by default.

I'm renaming GIT_TEST_DISALLOW_ABBREVIATED_OPTIONS to
GIT_TEST_ABBREVIATED_OPTIONS for consistency with the new
configuration variable, and I've picked the shorter
core.abbreviatedOptions instead of core.disallowAbbreviatedOptions
because it's easier to reason about a variable that's true by default
than about one that has a negation in its name.

While I'm at it, factor out the check for the environment variable
into a parse_options_config() which similar to the code added in
62c23938fa ("tests: add a special setup where rebase.useBuiltin is
off", 2018-11-14) will first check the environment variable, and then
the configuration.

Using git_env_bool() means it's a bit of a pain to distinguish between
the case where GIT_TEST_ABBREVIATED_OPTIONS is set to "true" or
"false" v.s. being empty, hence the
test_when_finished/export/sane_unset dance in the test that's being
added, but I think that's more sane than introducing a "bool but not
in the same way as the rest" GIT_TEST_* variable.

+core.abbreviatedOptions::
+	Defaults to `true` which allows options to be abbreviated as
+	long as they aren't ambiguous, e.g. for linkgit:git-init[1]
+	the `--bare` option can be abbreviated as `--bar`, `--ba` or
+	even `--b` since no other option starts with those
+	prefixes. However, if such an option were added in the future
+	any use of these abbreviations would break.
++
+By setting this to false (e.g. in scripts) you can defend against such
+future breakages by enforcing that options must always be fully
+provided.

 core.fileMode::
 	Tells Git if the executable bit of files in the working tree
 	is to be honored.
