Well spotted. I hope we can split this out of the series and fast track, as it is an obvious bugfix. I by mistake wrote error(_("...")) in the snippet below, but as a bugfix, we should stick to the existing fprintf(stderr, "...") without _(). i18n should be left outside the "bugfix" change. > -static void chmod_pathspec(struct pathspec *pathspec, char flip) > +static void chmod_pathspec(struct pathspec *pathspec, char flip, int show_only) > { > int i; > > @@ -48,7 +48,8 @@ static void chmod_pathspec(struct pathspec *pathspec, char flip) > if (pathspec && !ce_path_match(&the_index, ce, pathspec, NULL)) > continue; > > - if (chmod_cache_entry(ce, flip) < 0) > + if ((show_only && !S_ISREG(ce->ce_mode)) || > + (!show_only && chmod_cache_entry(ce, flip) < 0)) > fprintf(stderr, "cannot chmod %cx '%s'\n", flip, ce->name); > } > } This is a bit dense, especially when the reader does not know by heart that chmod_cache_entry() refuses to chmod anything that is not a regular file. Even when dry-run, we know chmod will fail when the thing is not a regular file. When not dry-run, we will try chmod and it will report an failure. And we report an error under these conditions. if (show_only ? !S_ISREG(ce->ce_mode) : chmod_cache_entry(ce, flip) < 0) error(_("cannot chmod ..."), ...); may express the same idea in a way that is a bit easier to follow. In any case, that "idea", while it is not wrong per-se, makes it as if the primary purpose of this code is to give an error message, which smells a bit funny. if (!show_only) err = chmod_cache_entry(ce, flip); else err = S_ISREG(ce->ce_mode) ? 0 : -1; if (err < 0) error(_("cannot chmod ..."), ...); would waste one extra variable, but may make the primary point (i.e. we call chmod_cache_entry() unless dry-run) more clear. > @@ -609,7 +610,7 @@ int cmd_add(int argc, const char **argv, const char *prefix) > exit_status |= add_files(&dir, flags); > > if (chmod_arg && pathspec.nr) > - chmod_pathspec(&pathspec, chmod_arg[0]); > + chmod_pathspec(&pathspec, chmod_arg[0], show_only); > unplug_bulk_checkin(); OK, this side is straight-forward.
