[PATCH] Make core.sharedRepository more generic

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

 



git init --shared=0xxx, where '0xxx' is an octal number, will create
a repository with file modes set to '0xxx'. Users with a safe umask
value (0077) can use this option to force file modes. For example,
'0640' is a group-readable but not group-writable regardless of
user's umask value. Values compatible with old Git versions are written
as they were before, for compatibility reasons. That is, "1" for
"group" and "2" for "everybody".

"git config core.sharedRepository 0xxx" is also handled.

This is version 5 of the generic shared mode patch.

Version 2 handles the directory x flags better than version 1.

Version 3 removes a warning for the o+w case, fixes a compatibility
problem with older Git's, and corrects some style issues.

Version 4 really fixes the o+w case.

Version 5 fixes backwards compatibility for old versions of Git.
PERM_GROUP and PERM_EVERYBODY are written in the old numeric format
when doing "git init --shared".

Btw, the current behavior (not introduced by this patch) of
"config core.sharedRepository group" writes string "group" to the 
repository, so it creates incompatible repositories. For completeness
sake, we would need some kind of hooks to git_config_set_multivar().
Actually, the current architecture bothers me, as there should be some 
common "convention"/"system" for handling compatibility values for all 
commands.
