While "git bundle" was a useful way to sneakernet incremental changes, we did not allow: $ git bundle create v2.6.20.bndl v2.6.20 to create a bundle that contains the whole history to a well-known good revision. Such a bundle can be mirrored everywhere, and people can prime their repository with it to reduce the load on the repository that serves near the tip of the development.

We need to fix this. Only very lightly tested, but the fix looks obvious enough. builtin-bundle.c | 10 +++++++++- t/t5510-fetch.sh | 8 ++++++++ 2 files changed, 17 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-) diff --git a/builtin-bundle.c b/builtin-bundle.c index 6ae5ab0..cb439ca 100644 --- a/builtin-bundle.c +++ b/builtin-bundle.c @@ -208,6 +208,10 @@ static int create_bundle(struct bundle_header *header, const char *path, struct rev_info revs; struct child_process rls; + /* + * NEEDSWORK: this should use something like lock-file + * to create temporary that is cleaned up upon error. + */ bundle_fd = (!strcmp(path, "-") ? 1 : open(path, O_CREAT | O_EXCL | O_WRONLY, 0666)); if (bundle_fd < 0) @@ -267,8 +271,12 @@ static int create_bundle(struct bundle_header *header, const char *path, * Make sure the refs we wrote out is correct; --max-count and * other limiting options could have prevented all the tips * from getting output. + * + * Non commit objects such as tags and blobs do not have + * this issue as they are not affected by those extra + * constraints. */ - if (!(e->item->flags & SHOWN)) { + if (!(e->item->flags & SHOWN) && e->item->type == OBJ_COMMIT) { warning("ref '%s' is excluded by the rev-list options", e->name); continue; diff --git a/t/t5510-fetch.sh b/t/t5510-fetch.sh index 426017e..439430f 100755 --- a/t/t5510-fetch.sh +++ b/t/t5510-fetch.sh @@ -145,4 +145,12 @@ test_expect_success 'bundle does not prerequisite objects' ' test 4 = $(git verify-pack -v bundle.pack | wc -l) ' +test_expect_success 'bundle should be able to create a full history' ' + + cd "$D" && + git tag -a -m '1.0' v1.0 master && + git bundle create bundle4 v1.0 + +' + test_done - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
