Lazy man's auto-CRLF It currently does NOT know about file attributes, so it does its conversion purely based on content. Maybe that is more in the "git philosophy" anyway, since content is king, but I think we should try to do the file attributes to turn it off on demand. Anyway, BY DEFAULT it is off regardless, because it requires a [core] AutoCRLF = true in your config file to be enabled. We could make that the default for Windows, of course, the same way we do some other things (filemode etc). But you can actually enable it on UNIX, and it will cause: - "git update-index" will write blobs without CRLF - "git diff" will diff working tree files without CRLF - "git checkout" will write files to the working tree _with_ CRLF and things work fine. Funnily, it actually shows an odd file in git itself: git clone -n git test-crlf cd test-crlf git config core.autocrlf true git checkout git diff shows a diff for "Documentation/docbook-xsl.css". Why? Because we have actually checked in that file *with* CRLF! So when "core.autocrlf" is true, we'll always generate a *different* hash for it in the index, because the index hash will be for the content _without_ CRLF. Is this complete? I dunno. It seems to work for me. It doesn't use the filename at all right now, and that's probably a deficiency (we could certainly make the "is_binary()" heuristics also take standard filename heuristics into account). I don't pass in the filename at all for the "index_fd()" case (git-update-index), so that would need to be passed around, but this actually works fine. NOTE NOTE NOTE! The "is_binary()" heuristics are totally made-up by yours truly. I will not guarantee that they work at all reasonable. Caveat emptor. But it _is_ simple, and it _is_ safe, since it's all off by default. The patch is pretty simple - the biggest part is the new "convert.c" file, but even that is really just basic stuff that anybody can write in "Teaching C 101" as a final project for their first class in programming. Not to say that it's bug-free, of course - but at least we're not talking about rocket surgery here.

safecrlf: Add mechanism to warn about irreversible crlf conversions CRLF conversion bears a slight chance of corrupting data. autocrlf=true will convert CRLF to LF during commit and LF to CRLF during checkout. A file that contains a mixture of LF and CRLF before the commit cannot be recreated by git. For text files this is the right thing to do: it corrects line endings such that we have only LF line endings in the repository. But for binary files that are accidentally classified as text the conversion can corrupt data. If you recognize such corruption early you can easily fix it by setting the conversion type explicitly in .gitattributes. Right after committing you still have the original file in your work tree and this file is not yet corrupted. You can explicitly tell git that this file is binary and git will handle the file appropriately. Unfortunately, the desired effect of cleaning up text files with mixed line endings and the undesired effect of corrupting binary files cannot be distinguished. In both cases CRLFs are removed in an irreversible way. For text files this is the right thing to do because CRLFs are line endings, while for binary files converting CRLFs corrupts data. This patch adds a mechanism that can either warn the user about an irreversible conversion or can even refuse to convert. The mechanism is controlled by the variable core.safecrlf, with the following values: - false: disable safecrlf mechanism - warn: warn about irreversible conversions - true: refuse irreversible conversions The default is to warn. Users are only affected by this default if core.autocrlf is set. But the current default of git is to leave core.autocrlf unset, so users will not see warnings unless they deliberately chose to activate the autocrlf mechanism. The safecrlf mechanism's details depend on the git command. The general principles when safecrlf is active (not false) are: - we warn/error out if files in the work tree can modified in an irreversible way without giving the user a chance to backup the original file. - for read-only operations that do not modify files in the work tree we do not not print annoying warnings. There are exceptions. Even though... - "git add" itself does not touch the files in the work tree, the next checkout would, so the safety triggers; - "git apply" to update a text file with a patch does touch the files in the work tree, but the operation is about text files and CRLF conversion is about fixing the line ending inconsistencies, so the safety does not trigger; - "git diff" itself does not touch the files in the work tree, it is often run to inspect the changes you intend to next "git add". To catch potential problems early, safety triggers. The concept of a safety check was originally proposed in a similar way by Linus Torvalds.

safecrlf: Add mechanism to warn about irreversible crlf conversions CRLF conversion bears a slight chance of corrupting data. autocrlf=true will convert CRLF to LF during commit and LF to CRLF during checkout. A file that contains a mixture of LF and CRLF before the commit cannot be recreated by git. For text files this is the right thing to do: it corrects line endings such that we have only LF line endings in the repository. But for binary files that are accidentally classified as text the conversion can corrupt data. If you recognize such corruption early you can easily fix it by setting the conversion type explicitly in .gitattributes. Right after committing you still have the original file in your work tree and this file is not yet corrupted. You can explicitly tell git that this file is binary and git will handle the file appropriately. Unfortunately, the desired effect of cleaning up text files with mixed line endings and the undesired effect of corrupting binary files cannot be distinguished. In both cases CRLFs are removed in an irreversible way. For text files this is the right thing to do because CRLFs are line endings, while for binary files converting CRLFs corrupts data. This patch adds a mechanism that can either warn the user about an irreversible conversion or can even refuse to convert. The mechanism is controlled by the variable core.safecrlf, with the following values: - false: disable safecrlf mechanism - warn: warn about irreversible conversions - true: refuse irreversible conversions The default is to warn. Users are only affected by this default if core.autocrlf is set. But the current default of git is to leave core.autocrlf unset, so users will not see warnings unless they deliberately chose to activate the autocrlf mechanism. The safecrlf mechanism's details depend on the git command. The general principles when safecrlf is active (not false) are: - we warn/error out if files in the work tree can modified in an irreversible way without giving the user a chance to backup the original file. - for read-only operations that do not modify files in the work tree we do not not print annoying warnings. There are exceptions. Even though... - "git add" itself does not touch the files in the work tree, the next checkout would, so the safety triggers; - "git apply" to update a text file with a patch does touch the files in the work tree, but the operation is about text files and CRLF conversion is about fixing the line ending inconsistencies, so the safety does not trigger; - "git diff" itself does not touch the files in the work tree, it is often run to inspect the changes you intend to next "git add". To catch potential problems early, safety triggers. The concept of a safety check was originally proposed in a similar way by Linus Torvalds.

Fix crlf attribute handling to match documentation gitattributes.txt says, of the crlf attribute: Set:: Setting the `crlf` attribute on a path is meant to mark the path as a "text" file. 'core.autocrlf' conversion takes place without guessing the content type by inspection. That is to say that the crlf attribute does not force the file to have CRLF line endings, instead it removes the autocrlf guesswork and forces the file to be treated as text. Then, whatever line ending is defined by the autocrlf setting is applied. However, that is not what convert.c was doing. The conversion to CRLF was being skipped in crlf_to_worktree() when the following condition was true: action == CRLF_GUESS && auto_crlf <= 0 That is to say conversion took place when not in guess mode (crlf attribute not specified) or core.autocrlf set to true. This was wrong. It meant that the crlf attribute being on for a given file _forced_ CRLF conversion, when actually it should force the file to be treated as text, and converted accordingly. The real test should simply be auto_crlf <= 0 That is to say, if core.autocrlf is falsei (or input), conversion from LF to CRLF is never done. When core.autocrlf is true, conversion from LF to CRLF is done only when in CRLF_GUESS (and the guess is "text"), or CRLF_TEXT mode. Similarly for crlf_to_worktree(), if core.autocrlf is false, no conversion should _ever_ take place. In reality it was only not taking place if core.autocrlf was false _and_ the crlf attribute was unspecified.

Funnily, it actually shows an odd file in git itself: git clone -n git test-crlf cd test-crlf git config core.autocrlf true git checkout git diff shows a diff for "Documentation/docbook-xsl.css". Why? Because we have actually checked in that file *with* CRLF!

It doesn't use the filename at all right now, and that's probably a deficiency (we could certainly make the "is_binary()" heuristics also take standard filename heuristics into account). I don't pass in the filename at all for the "index_fd()" case (git-update-index), so that would need to be passed around, but this actually works fine. NOTE NOTE NOTE! The "is_binary()" heuristics are totally made-up by yours truly. I will not guarantee that they work at all reasonable. Caveat emptor. But it _is_ simple, and it _is_ safe, since it's all off by default. The patch is pretty simple - the biggest part is the new "convert.c" file, but even that is really just basic stuff that anybody can write in "Teaching C 101" as a final project for their first class in programming.

Fix mishandling of $Id$ expanded in the repository copy in convert.c If the repository contained an expanded ident keyword (i.e. $Id:XXXX$), then the wrong bytes were discarded, and the Id keyword was not expanded. The fault was in convert.c:ident_to_worktree(). Previously, when a "$Id:" was found in the repository version, ident_to_worktree() would search for the next "$" after this, and discarded everything it found until then. That was done with the loop: do { ch = *cp++; if (ch == '$') break; rem--; } while (rem); The above loop left cp pointing one character _after_ the final "$" (because of ch = *cp++). This was different from the non-expanded case, were cp is left pointing at the "$", and was different from the comment which stated "discard up to but not including the closing $". This patch fixes that by making the loop: do { ch = *cp; if (ch == '$') break; cp++; rem--; } while (rem); That is, cp is tested _then_ incremented. This loop exits if it finds a "$" or if it runs out of bytes in the source. After this loop, if there was no closing "$" the expansion is skipped, and the outer loop is allowed to continue leaving this non-keyword as it was. However, when the "$" is found, size is corrected, before running the expansion: size -= (cp - src); This is wrong; size is going to be corrected anyway after the expansion, so there is no need to do it here. This patch removes that redundant correction. To help find this bug, I heavily commented the routine; those comments are included here as a bonus.

safecrlf: Add mechanism to warn about irreversible crlf conversions CRLF conversion bears a slight chance of corrupting data. autocrlf=true will convert CRLF to LF during commit and LF to CRLF during checkout. A file that contains a mixture of LF and CRLF before the commit cannot be recreated by git. For text files this is the right thing to do: it corrects line endings such that we have only LF line endings in the repository. But for binary files that are accidentally classified as text the conversion can corrupt data. If you recognize such corruption early you can easily fix it by setting the conversion type explicitly in .gitattributes. Right after committing you still have the original file in your work tree and this file is not yet corrupted. You can explicitly tell git that this file is binary and git will handle the file appropriately. Unfortunately, the desired effect of cleaning up text files with mixed line endings and the undesired effect of corrupting binary files cannot be distinguished. In both cases CRLFs are removed in an irreversible way. For text files this is the right thing to do because CRLFs are line endings, while for binary files converting CRLFs corrupts data. This patch adds a mechanism that can either warn the user about an irreversible conversion or can even refuse to convert. The mechanism is controlled by the variable core.safecrlf, with the following values: - false: disable safecrlf mechanism - warn: warn about irreversible conversions - true: refuse irreversible conversions The default is to warn. Users are only affected by this default if core.autocrlf is set. But the current default of git is to leave core.autocrlf unset, so users will not see warnings unless they deliberately chose to activate the autocrlf mechanism. The safecrlf mechanism's details depend on the git command. The general principles when safecrlf is active (not false) are: - we warn/error out if files in the work tree can modified in an irreversible way without giving the user a chance to backup the original file. - for read-only operations that do not modify files in the work tree we do not not print annoying warnings. There are exceptions. Even though... - "git add" itself does not touch the files in the work tree, the next checkout would, so the safety triggers; - "git apply" to update a text file with a patch does touch the files in the work tree, but the operation is about text files and CRLF conversion is about fixing the line ending inconsistencies, so the safety does not trigger; - "git diff" itself does not touch the files in the work tree, it is often run to inspect the changes you intend to next "git add". To catch potential problems early, safety triggers. The concept of a safety check was originally proposed in a similar way by Linus Torvalds.
