In c8243933c74 (git-send-email: Respect core.hooksPath setting, 2021-03-23) we started supporting core.hooksPath in "send-email". It's been reported that on Windows[1] doing this by calling abs_path() results in different canonicalizations of the absolute path. This wasn't an issue in c8243933c74 itself, but was revealed by my ea7811b37e0 (git-send-email: improve --validate error output, 2021-04-06) when we started emitting the path to the hook, which was previously only internal to git-send-email.perl. I think this change should let us have our cake and eat it too. We now emit a relative path for the common case where the hook is in the .git/hooks directory, but in the case it's an absolute path (there's another test for that, not seen here) we'll prefix it with $(pwd). I hope that unlike the current implementation that $(pwd) v.s. $PWD difference won't matter on Windows, since now the absolute path is the one we get from rev-parse, not the one that's been passed through Perl's Cwd::abs_path(). 1. http://lore.kernel.org/git/bb30fe2b-cd75-4782-24a6-08bb002a0367@xxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <avarab@xxxxxxxxx> --- perl/Git.pm | 3 +-- t/t9001-send-email.sh | 2 +- 2 files changed, 2 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/perl/Git.pm b/perl/Git.pm index 73ebbf80cc6..df6280ebab5 100644 --- a/perl/Git.pm +++ b/perl/Git.pm @@ -629,8 +629,7 @@ sub hooks_path { my ($self) = @_; my $dir = $self->command_oneline('rev-parse', '--git-path', 'hooks'); - my $abs = abs_path($dir); - return $abs; + return $dir; } =item wc_path () diff --git a/t/t9001-send-email.sh b/t/t9001-send-email.sh index 2acf389837c..3b7540050ca 100755 --- a/t/t9001-send-email.sh +++ b/t/t9001-send-email.sh @@ -539,7 +539,7 @@ test_expect_success $PREREQ "--validate respects relative core.hooksPath path" ' test_path_is_file my-hooks.ran && cat >expect <<-EOF && fatal: longline.patch: rejected by sendemail-validate hook - fatal: command '"'"'$(pwd)/my-hooks/sendemail-validate'"'"' died with exit code 1 + fatal: command '"'"'my-hooks/sendemail-validate'"'"' died with exit code 1 warning: no patches were sent EOF test_cmp expect actual -- 2.32.0.rc1.385.g9db524b96f7
