[PATCH v2 2/2] attr: add attr.allowInvalidSource config to allow invalid revision

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: John Cai <johncai86@xxxxxxxxx>

The previous commit provided the ability to pass in a treeish as the
attr source via the attr.tree config. The default behavior is that when
a revision does not resolve to a valid tree is passed, Git will die.

When HEAD is unborn however, it does not point to a valid treeish,
causing Git to die. In the context of serving repositories through bare
repositories, we'd like to be able to set attr.tree to HEAD and allow
cases where HEAD does not resolve to a valid tree to be treated as if
there were no treeish provided.

Add attr.allowInvalidSource that allows this.
