Commands such as $ git submodule update --quiet --init --depth=1 involving shallow clones, call the shell function fetch_in_submodule, which in turn invokes git fetch. Pass the --quiet option onward there. Signed-off-by: Nicholas Clark <nick@xxxxxxxx> --- I tried to adopt the same approach as the previous commit that fixed a --quiet bug, 3ad0401e9e (submodule update: silence underlying merge/rebase with "--quiet", 2020-09-30) I believe that the bugfix is correct but I struggled to create a concise regression test demonstrates the bug and the bug fix. That commit is not the only fix of a --quiet bug, so I'm wondering if there are others still to find. I looked in git-submodule.sh and see many invocations of git commands in git-submodule.sh, most of which don't pass ${GIT_QUIET:+--quiet} onward, but I don't know git well enough to know which might matter (ie might generate output), and it feels like cargo-cult to add that code unthinkingly to every git command, so I didn't do this. git-submodule.sh | 4 ++-- t/t7406-submodule-update.sh | 24 ++++++++++++++++++++++++ 2 files changed, 26 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/git-submodule.sh b/git-submodule.sh index eb90f18229..4678378424 100755 --- a/git-submodule.sh +++ b/git-submodule.sh @@ -420,9 +420,9 @@ fetch_in_submodule () ( cd "$1" && if test $# -eq 3 then - echo "$3" | git fetch --stdin ${2:+"$2"} + echo "$3" | git fetch ${GIT_QUIET:+--quiet} --stdin ${2:+"$2"} else - git fetch ${2:+"$2"} + git fetch ${GIT_QUIET:+--quiet} ${2:+"$2"} fi ) diff --git a/t/t7406-submodule-update.sh b/t/t7406-submodule-update.sh index ff3ba5422e..f4f61fe554 100755 --- a/t/t7406-submodule-update.sh +++ b/t/t7406-submodule-update.sh @@ -1037,4 +1037,28 @@ test_expect_success 'submodule update --quiet passes quietness to merge/rebase' ) ' +test_expect_success 'submodule update --quiet passes quietness to fetch with a shallow clone' ' + test_when_finished "rm -rf super4 super5 super6" && + git clone . super4 && + (cd super4 && + git submodule add --quiet file://"$TRASH_DIRECTORY"/submodule submodule3 && + git commit -am "setup submodule3" + ) && + (cd submodule && + test_commit line6 file + ) && + git clone super4 super5 && + (cd super5 && + git submodule update --quiet --init --depth=1 submodule3 >out 2>err && + test_must_be_empty out && + test_must_be_empty err + ) && + git clone super4 super6 && + (cd super6 && + git submodule update --init --depth=1 submodule3 >out 2>err && + test_file_not_empty out && + test_file_not_empty err + ) +' + test_done -- 2.31.1
