From: Torsten Bögershausen <tboegi@xxxxxx> The "prefix" was precomposed for MacOs in commit 5c327502db, MacOS: precompose_argv_prefix() However, this commit forgot to update "startup_info->prefix" after precomposing. Re-arrange the code in setup.c: Move the (possible) precomposition towards the end of setup_git_directory_gently(), so that precompose_string_if_needed() can use git_config_get_bool("core.precomposeunicode") correctly. Keep prefix, startup_info->prefix and GIT_PREFIX_ENVIRONMENT all in sync. And as a result, the prefix no longer needs to be precomposed in git.c Reported-by: Dmitry Torilov <d.torilov@xxxxxxxxx> Helped-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Torsten Bögershausen <tboegi@xxxxxx> --- This part did never made it to the list - it should have gone only to tboegi@xxxxxx git send-email decided to cc to the "Helped-by" and "Reported-by" addresses, a feature that I was not aware of - and can be turned off with --suppress-cc=all In other words, I typically send these emails only to my self first, re-read with fresh eyes, and then send them out. End of of blabla. Changes since V1: Add a comment in setup.c, to make more clear that git_config_get_bool() is called, and the setup_XXX() must have prepared everything needed. git.c | 2 +- setup.c | 14 ++++++++++---- 2 files changed, 11 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) diff --git a/git.c b/git.c index 9bc077a025..b53e665671 100644 --- a/git.c +++ b/git.c @@ -423,7 +423,7 @@ static int run_builtin(struct cmd_struct *p, int argc, const char **argv) int nongit_ok; prefix = setup_git_directory_gently(&nongit_ok); } - prefix = precompose_argv_prefix(argc, argv, prefix); + precompose_argv_prefix(argc, argv, NULL); if (use_pager == -1 && p->option & (RUN_SETUP | RUN_SETUP_GENTLY) && !(p->option & DELAY_PAGER_CONFIG)) use_pager = check_pager_config(p->cmd); diff --git a/setup.c b/setup.c index c04cd25a30..dcc9c41a85 100644 --- a/setup.c +++ b/setup.c @@ -1281,10 +1281,6 @@ const char *setup_git_directory_gently(int *nongit_ok) } else { startup_info->have_repository = 1; startup_info->prefix = prefix; - if (prefix) - setenv(GIT_PREFIX_ENVIRONMENT, prefix, 1); - else - setenv(GIT_PREFIX_ENVIRONMENT, "", 1); } /* @@ -1311,6 +1307,16 @@ const char *setup_git_directory_gently(int *nongit_ok) if (startup_info->have_repository) repo_set_hash_algo(the_repository, repo_fmt.hash_algo); } + /* Keep prefix, startup_info->prefix and GIT_PREFIX_ENVIRONMENT in sync */ + prefix = startup_info->prefix; + if (prefix) { + /* This calls git_config_get_bool() under the hood (MacOs only) */ + prefix = precompose_string_if_needed(prefix); + startup_info->prefix = prefix; + setenv(GIT_PREFIX_ENVIRONMENT, prefix, 1); + } else { + setenv(GIT_PREFIX_ENVIRONMENT, "", 1); + } strbuf_release(&dir); strbuf_release(&gitdir); -- 2.30.0.155.g66e871b664
