The cmake recipe added in [1] did not create the bin-wrappers/* directory, and thus fell back on running the tests with the equivalent of "--no-bin-wrappers". Thus the. "t/test-lib.sh" would be unable to find "bin-wrappers/git", and we'd fall back on "GIT_EXEC_PATH=$GIT_BUILD_DIR" using the fallback behavior added in [2]: $ ./t0001-init.sh <GIT_BUILD_DIR>/t/../contrib/buildsystems/out/bin-wrappers/git is not executable; using GIT_EXEC_PATH Or rather, this is what would have happened on *nix, but until [3] there wasn't any non-Windows support for "cmake". On Windows it didn't matter that the bin-wrappers weren't made executable, since there's no executable bit, instead the emulation layer looks at whether a file has a shebang. But with [3] we've effectively used the semi-equivalent of "--no-bin-wrappers" unintentionally on *nix, and furthermore because we didn't make these executable In addition, we'd fail any test that needed to invoke one of our built shell, perl or Python scripts on *nix. E.g. t0012-help.sh would fail on a test that tried to invoke "git web--browse". I.e. the equivalent of this (in the "out" directory) would happen: $ ./git --exec-path=$PWD web--browse git: 'web--browse' is not a git command. See 'git --help'. Which we can fix by "chmod +x"-ing the built "git-web--browse": $ chmod +x git-web--browse $ ./git --exec-path=$PWD web--browse usage: git web--browse [--browser=browser|--tool=browser] [--config=conf.var] url/file ... The same goes for e.g. the "git-p4" tests, which would fail because our built "git-p4" wasn't executable, etc. This change should ideally use file(CHMOD ...), but that's much newer than our required cmake version[1]. 1. a30e4c531d9 (Merge branch 'ss/cmake-build', 2020-08-11) 2. e4597aae659 (run test suite without dashed git-commands in PATH, 2009-12-02) 3. f31b6244950 (Merge branch 'yw/cmake-updates', 2022-06-07) 4. https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/command/file.html#chmod Signed-off-by: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <avarab@xxxxxxxxx> --- contrib/buildsystems/CMakeLists.txt | 6 ++++++ 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+) diff --git a/contrib/buildsystems/CMakeLists.txt b/contrib/buildsystems/CMakeLists.txt index fd0c6ef4971..464c41a1fdf 100644 --- a/contrib/buildsystems/CMakeLists.txt +++ b/contrib/buildsystems/CMakeLists.txt @@ -836,6 +836,7 @@ foreach(script ${git_shell_scripts}) string(REPLACE "@@PERL@@" "${PERL_PATH}" content "${content}") string(REPLACE "@@PAGER_ENV@@" "LESS=FRX LV=-c" content "${content}") file(WRITE ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/${script} ${content}) + execute_process(COMMAND chmod +x ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/${script}) endforeach() #perl scripts @@ -851,12 +852,14 @@ foreach(script ${git_perl_scripts}) string(REPLACE "#!/usr/bin/perl" "#!/usr/bin/perl\n${perl_header}\n" content "${content}") string(REPLACE "@@GIT_VERSION@@" "${PROJECT_VERSION}" content "${content}") file(WRITE ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/${script} ${content}) + execute_process(COMMAND chmod +x ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/${script}) endforeach() #python script file(STRINGS ${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/git-p4.py content NEWLINE_CONSUME) string(REPLACE "#!/usr/bin/env python" "#!/usr/bin/python" content "${content}") file(WRITE ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/git-p4 ${content}) +execute_process(COMMAND chmod +x ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/git-p4) #perl modules file(GLOB_RECURSE perl_modules "${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/perl/*.pm") @@ -995,6 +998,7 @@ foreach(script ${wrapper_scripts}) string(REPLACE "@@BUILD_DIR@@" "${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}" content "${content}") string(REPLACE "@@PROG@@" "${script}${EXE_EXTENSION}" content "${content}") file(WRITE ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/bin-wrappers/${script} ${content}) + execute_process(COMMAND chmod +x ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/bin-wrappers/${script}) endforeach() foreach(script ${wrapper_test_scripts}) @@ -1002,12 +1006,14 @@ foreach(script ${wrapper_test_scripts}) string(REPLACE "@@BUILD_DIR@@" "${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}" content "${content}") string(REPLACE "@@PROG@@" "t/helper/${script}${EXE_EXTENSION}" content "${content}") file(WRITE ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/bin-wrappers/${script} ${content}) + execute_process(COMMAND chmod +x ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/bin-wrappers/${script}) endforeach() file(STRINGS ${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/wrap-for-bin.sh content NEWLINE_CONSUME) string(REPLACE "@@BUILD_DIR@@" "${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}" content "${content}") string(REPLACE "@@PROG@@" "git-cvsserver" content "${content}") file(WRITE ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/bin-wrappers/git-cvsserver ${content}) +execute_process(COMMAND chmod +x ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/bin-wrappers/git-cvsserver) #options for configuring test options option(PERL_TESTS "Perform tests that use perl" ON) -- 2.38.0.1205.gcea0601d673
