#define GIT_EXEC_CMD_H
Exec git programs without using PATH. The git suite may not be in PATH (and thus programs such as git-send-pack could not exec git-rev-list). Thus there is a need for logic that will locate these programs. Modifying PATH is not desirable as it result in behavior differing from the user's intentions, as we may end up prepending "/usr/bin" to PATH. - git C programs will use exec*_git_cmd() APIs to exec sub-commands. - exec*_git_cmd() will execute a git program by searching for it in the following directories: 1. --exec-path (as used by "git") 2. The GIT_EXEC_PATH environment variable. 3. $(gitexecdir) as set in Makefile (default value $(bindir)). - git wrapper will modify PATH as before to enable shell scripts to invoke "git-foo" commands. Ideally, shell scripts should use the git wrapper to become independent of PATH, and then modifying PATH will not be necessary.

"current_exec_path" is a misleading name, use "argv_exec_path" Signed-off-by: Scott R Parish <srp@srparish.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

extern void git_set_argv_exec_path(const char *exec_path);
Refactor git_set_argv0_path() to git_extract_argv0_path() This commit moves the code that computes the dirname of argv[0] from git.c's main() to git_set_argv0_path() and renames the function to git_extract_argv0_path(). This makes the code in git.c's main less cluttered, and we can use the dirname computation from other main() functions too. [ spr: - split Steve's original commit and wrote new commit message. - Integrated Johannes Schindelin's cca1704897e7fdb182f68d4c48a437c5d7bc5203 while rebasing onto master. ] Signed-off-by: Steve Haslam <shaslam@lastminute.com> Signed-off-by: Steffen Prohaska <prohaska@zib.de> Acked-by: Johannes Sixt <j6t@kdbg.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

Record the command invocation path early We will need the command invocation path in system_path(). This path was passed to setup_path(), but system_path() can be called earlier, for example via: main commit_pager_choice setup_pager git_config git_etc_gitconfig system_path Therefore, we introduce git_set_argv0_path() and call it as soon as possible.

extern void setup_path(void);
Refactor, adding prepare_git_cmd(const char **argv) prepare_git_cmd(const char **argv) adds a first entry "git" to the array argv. The new array is allocated on the heap. It's the caller's responsibility to release it with free(). The code was already present in execv_git_cmd() but could not be used from outside. Now it can also be called for preparing the command list in the MinGW codepath in run-command.c. Signed-off-by: Steffen Prohaska <prohaska@zib.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

extern const char **prepare_git_cmd(const char **argv);
Const tightening. Mark Wooding noticed there was a type mismatch warning in git.c; this patch does things slightly differently (mostly tightening const) and was what I was holding onto, waiting for the setup-revisions change to be merged into the master branch.

extern int execv_git_cmd(const char **argv); /* NULL terminated */
Add the LAST_ARG_MUST_BE_NULL macro The sentinel function attribute is not understood by versions of the gcc compiler prior to v4.0. At present, for earlier versions of gcc, the build issues 108 warnings related to the unknown attribute. In order to suppress the warnings, we conditionally define the LAST_ARG_MUST_BE_NULL macro to provide the sentinel attribute for gcc v4.0 and newer.

system_path(): always return free'able memory to the caller The function sometimes returns a newly allocated string and sometimes returns a borrowed string, the latter of which the callers must not free(). The existing callers all assume that the return value belongs to the callee and most of them copy it with strdup() when they want to keep it around. They end up leaking the returned copy when the callee returned a new string because they cannot tell if they should free it. Change the contract between the callers and system_path() to make the returned string owned by the callers; they are responsible for freeing it when done, but they do not have to make their own copy to store it away. Adjust the callers to make sure they do not leak the returned string once they are done, but do not bother freeing it just before dying, exiting or exec'ing other program to avoid unnecessary churn.
