Thanks for patiently addressing all my feedback. These last two rounds look really good, and this one you've addressed all my feedback and I can't find any issues: Reviewed-by: Elijah Newren <newren@xxxxxxxxx> > Updates in v4 > ============= > > * Rebased to v2.35.0 > * Fixed memory leak (was leaking repo_git_path() result) > * Added additional documentation updates so curious users can discover the > intricacies of extensions.worktreeConfig from multiple entry points. > * Significantly reduced the amount of changes to config.c. > * 'git sparse-checkout' no longer upgrades the repository format. > * Dropped the update to upgrade_repository_format(), since it is not > needed. > * Dropped the 'git worktree init-worktree-config' subcommand in favor of a > helper method called by 'git sparse-checkout' > * Many others because of the significant changes required by the above > items. > > Thanks, -Stolee > > Derrick Stolee (5): > Documentation: add extensions.worktreeConfig details > worktree: create init_worktree_config() > config: add repo_config_set_worktree_gently() > sparse-checkout: set worktree-config correctly > worktree: copy sparse-checkout patterns and config on add > > Documentation/config/extensions.txt | 31 ++++++++++++ > Documentation/git-config.txt | 8 ++- > Documentation/git-sparse-checkout.txt | 16 ++++-- > Documentation/git-worktree.txt | 11 +++-- > builtin/sparse-checkout.c | 28 +++++------ > builtin/worktree.c | 60 +++++++++++++++++++++++ > config.c | 35 ++++++++++++-- > config.h | 8 +++ > sparse-index.c | 10 ++-- > t/t1091-sparse-checkout-builtin.sh | 35 ++++++++++---- > t/t2400-worktree-add.sh | 46 +++++++++++++++++- > worktree.c | 70 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++ > worktree.h | 21 ++++++++ > 13 files changed, 333 insertions(+), 46 deletions(-) > > > base-commit: 89bece5c8c96f0b962cfc89e63f82d603fd60bed > Published-As: https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git/releases/tag/pr-1101%2Fderrickstolee%2Fsparse-checkout%2Fbare-worktree-bug-v5 > Fetch-It-Via: git fetch https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git pr-1101/derrickstolee/sparse-checkout/bare-worktree-bug-v5 > Pull-Request: https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git/pull/1101 > > Range-diff vs v4: > > 1: 459e09dedd7 ! 1: 1bd5f26271c Documentation: add extensions.worktreeConfig details > @@ Commit message > within git-sparse-checkout.txt, but a behavior change is needed before > making those updates. > > + Helped-by: Elijah Newren <newren@xxxxxxxxx> > Signed-off-by: Derrick Stolee <dstolee@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> > > ## Documentation/config/extensions.txt ## > @@ Documentation/git-config.txt: from all available files. > - present.
