[PATCH 1/1] attr: enable attr pathspec magic for git-add and git-stash

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

 



This lets users limit files or exclude files based on file
attributes during git-add and git-stash.
For example, the chromium project would like to use this like
"git add --all ':(exclude,attr:submodule)'", as submodules are managed in a
unique way and often results in submodule changes that users do not want in
their commits.

This does not change any attr magic implementation. It is only adding
attr as an allowed pathspec in git-add and git-stash, which was previously
blocked by GUARD_PATHSPEC and a pathspec mask in parse_pathspec()).
However, this does fix a bug in prefix_magic() where attr values were unintentionally removed.
This was hit whenever parse_pathspec() is called with PATHSPEC_PREFIX_ORIGIN as a flag,
which was the case for git-stash. More details here:
https://lore.kernel.org/git/CAMmZTi-0QKtj7Q=sbC5qhipGsQxJFOY-Qkk1jfkRYwfF5FcUVg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/

It is possible that when the attr pathspec feature was first added in
b0db704652 (pathspec: allow querying for attributes, 2017-03-13),
"PATHSPEC_ATTR" was just unintentionally left out of a few GUARD_PATHSPEC() invocations.

Later, to get a more user-friendly error message when attr was used with git-add,
PATHSPEC_ATTR was added as a mask to git-add's invocation of parse_pathspec()
84d938b732 (add: do not accept pathspec magic 'attr', 2018-09-18).
However, this user-friendly error message was never added for git-stash.

This was my initial strategy but ran into trouble when the magic was
in shorthand form. Upon closer look at how the shorthand works
(e.g. shorthand and longhand can never mix so
':!/(attr:chicken)file' would make <(attr:chicken)file> the match string)
I tried this again by processing the forms separately.
It would still need both the element and element_magic, but I think it
addresses the concerns with future changes where multiple magic match
values could be allowed and the match values could be any string. These
changes would be fine as long as there is no overlap between magic that
takes a user-supplied value and magic that can be expressed in shorthand.
