[RFC/PATCH] archive: "--list" does not take further options

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

 



"git archive --list blah" should notice an extra command line
parameter that goes unused.  Make it so.

 * This was done to convince myself that even though cmd_archive()
   calls parse_options with PARSE_OPT_KEEP_UNKNOWN_OPT and then
   uses the resulting argc/argv without apparent filtering of the
   "--end-of-options" thing, it is correctly handling it, either
   locally or remotely.

   - locally, write_archive() uses parse_archive_args(), which calls
     parse_options() without KEEP_UNKNOWN_OPT and "--end-of-options"
     is handled there just fine.

   - remotely, run_remote_archiver() relays the local parameters,
     including "--end-of-options" via the "argument" packet.  Then
     the arguments are assembled into a strvec and used by the
     upload-archive running on the other side to spawn an
     upload-archive--writer process with.
     cmd_upload_archive_writer() then makes the same write_archive()
     call; "--end-of-options" would still be in argv[] if the
     original "git archive --remote" invocation had one, but it is
     consumed the same way as the local case in write_archive() by
     calling parse_archive_args().

   I do not like the remote error behaviour this one adds at all.
   Do we use a more proper mechanism to propagate a remote error
   back for other subcommands we can reuse here?
