59a06e947b t3600: use helpers to replace test -d/f/e/s <path>
Take advantage of helper functions test_path_is_dir(),
test_path_is_missing(), etc. to replace `test -d|f|e|s` since the
functions make the code more readable and have better error
messages.

b5368c23c1 t3600: modernize style
The tests in `t3600-rm.sh` were written long time ago, and has a lot
of style violations, including the mixed use of tabs and spaces, not
having the title and the opening quote of the body on the first line
of the tests, and other shell script style violations. Update it to
match the CodingGuidelines.

ec10b018e7 tests: use 'test_must_be_empty' instead of '! test -s'
Using 'test_must_be_empty' is preferable to '! test -s', because it
gives a helpful error message if the given file is unexpectedly not
empty, while the latter remains completely silent.  Furthermore, it
also catches cases when the given file unexpectedly does not exist at
all.

This patch was basically created by:

  sed -i -e 's/! test -s/test_must_be_empty/' t[0-9]*.sh

with the following notable exceptions:

  - The '! test -s' check in '.gitmodules ignore=dirty suppresses
    submodules with untracked content' in 't7508-status.sh' is left
    as-is, because it's bogus and, therefore, it's subject of a
    dedicated patch.

  - The '! test -s' checks in 't9131-git-svn-empty-symlink.sh' and
    't9135-git-svn-moved-branch-empty-file.sh' are immediately
    preceeded by a 'test -f' to ensure that the files exist in the
    first place.  'test_must_be_empty' ensures that as well, so those
    'test -f' commands are removed as well.

6ec633059a t: factor out FUNNYNAMES as shared lazy prereq
A fair number of tests need to check that the filesystem supports file
names including "funny" characters, like newline, tab, and double-quote.
Jonathan Nieder suggested that this be extracted into a lazy prereq in
the top-level `test-lib.sh`. This patch effects that change.

The FUNNYNAMES prereq now uniformly requires support for newlines, tabs,
and double-quotes in filenames. This very slightly decreases the power
of some tests, which might have run previously on a system that supports
(e.g.) newlines and tabs but not double-quotes, but now will not. This
seems to me like an acceptable tradeoff for consistency.

One test (`t/t9902-completion.sh`) defined FUNNYNAMES to further require
the separators \034 through \037, the test for which was implemented
using the Bash-specific $'\034' syntax. I've elected to leave this one
as is, renaming it to FUNNIERNAMES.

After this patch, `git grep 'test_\(set\|lazy\)_prereq.*FUNNYNAMES'` has
only one result.

9e4e8a64c2 pathspec: die on empty strings as pathspec
An empty string as a pathspec element matches all paths.  A buggy
script, however, could accidentally assign an empty string to a
variable that then gets passed to a Git command invocation, e.g.:

  path=... compute a path to be removed in $path ...
        git rm -r "$path"

which would unintentionally remove all paths in the current
directory.

The fix for this issue comprises of two steps. Step 1, which warns
that empty strings as pathspecs will become invalid, has already
been implemented in commit d426430 ("pathspec: warn on empty strings
as pathspec", 2016-06-22).

This patch is step 2. It removes the warning and throws an error
instead.

23739aa2b3 t3600: clean up permissions test properly
The test of failing `git rm -f` removes the write permissions on the
test directory, but fails to restore them if the test fails. This
means that the test temporary directory cannot be cleaned up, which
means that subsequent attempts to run the test fail mysteriously.

Instead, do the cleanup in a `test_when_finished` block so that it
can't be skipped.

40069d6e3a submodule.c: correctly handle nested submodules in is_submodule_modified
Suppose I have a superproject 'super', with two submodules 'super/sub'
and 'super/sub1'. 'super/sub' itself contains a submodule
'super/sub/subsub'. Now suppose I run, from within 'super':

    echo hi >sub/subsub/stray-file
    echo hi >sub1/stray-file

Currently we get would see the following output in git-status:

    git status --short
     m sub
     ? sub1

With this patch applied, the untracked file in the nested submodule is
displayed as an untracked file on the 'super' level as well.

    git status --short
     ? sub
     ? sub1

This doesn't change the output of 'git status --porcelain=1' for nested
submodules, because its output is always ' M' for either untracked files
or local modifications no matter the nesting level of the submodule.

'git status --porcelain=2' is affected by this change in a nested
submodule, though. Without this patch it would report the direct submodule
as modified and having no untracked files. With this patch it would report
untracked files. Chalk this up as a bug fix.

This bug fix also affects the default output (non-short, non-porcelain)
of git-status, which is not tested here.

dd6962dd73 short status: improve reporting for submodule changes
If I add an untracked file to a submodule or modify a tracked file,
currently "git status --short" treats the change in the same way as
changes to the current HEAD of the submodule:

        $ git clone --quiet --recurse-submodules https://gerrit.googlesource.com/gerrit
        $ echo hello >gerrit/plugins/replication/stray-file
        $ sed -i -e 's/.*//' gerrit/plugins/replication/.mailmap
        $ git -C gerrit status --short
         M plugins/replication

This is by analogy with ordinary files, where "M" represents a change
that has not been added yet to the index.  But this change cannot be
added to the index without entering the submodule, "git add"-ing it,
and running "git commit", so the analogy is counterproductive.

Introduce new status letters " ?" and " m" for this.  These are similar
to the existing "??" and " M" but mean that the submodule (not the
parent project) has new untracked files and modified files, respectively.
The user can use "git add" and "git commit" from within the submodule to
add them.

Changes to the submodule's HEAD commit can be recorded in the index with
a plain "git add -u" and are shown with " M", like today.

To avoid excessive clutter, show at most one of " ?", " m", and " M" for
the submodule.  They represent increasing levels of change --- the last
one that applies is shown (e.g., " m" if there are both modified files
and untracked files in the submodule, or " M" if the submodule's HEAD
has been modified and it has untracked files).

While making these changes, we need to make sure to not break porcelain
level 1, which shares code with "status --short".  We only change
"git status --short".

Non-short "git status" and "git status --porcelain=2" already handle
these cases by showing more detail:

        $ git -C gerrit status --porcelain=2
        1 .M S.MU 160000 160000 160000 305c864db28eb0c77c8499bc04c87de3f849cf3c 305c864db28eb0c77c8499bc04c87de3f849cf3c plugins/replication
        $ git -C gerrit status
[...]
        modified:   plugins/replication (modified content, untracked content)

Scripts caring about these distinctions should use --porcelain=2.

"git rm" used to refuse to remove a submodule when it has its own

will be no loss of local modifications, that is).

55856a35b2 rm: absorb a submodules git dir before deletion
When deleting a submodule, we need to keep the actual git directory around,
such that we do not lose local changes in there and at a later checkout
of the submodule we don't need to clone it again.

Now that the functionality is available to absorb the git directory of a
submodule, rewrite the checking in git-rm to not complain, but rather
relocate the git directories inside the superproject.

An alternative solution was discussed to have a function
`depopulate_submodule`. That would couple the check for its git directory
and possible relocation before the the removal, such that it is less
likely to miss the check in the future.  But the indirection with such
a function added seemed also complex. The reason for that was that this
possible move of the git directory was also implemented in
`ok_to_remove_submodule`, such that this function could truthfully
answer whether it is ok to remove the submodule.

The solution proposed here defers all these checks to the caller.

d426430e6e pathspec: warn on empty strings as pathspec
An empty string as a pathspec element matches all paths.  A buggy
script, however, could accidentally assign an empty string to a
variable that then gets passed to a Git command invocation, e.g.:

	path=... compute a path to be removed in $path ...
        git rm -r "$paht"

which would unintentionally remove all paths in the current
directory.

The fix for this issue requires a two-step approach. As there may be
existing scripts that knowingly use empty strings in this manner,
the first step simply gives a warning that (1) tells that an empty
string will become an invalid pathspec element and (2) asks the user
to use "." if they mean to match all.

For step two, a follow-up patch several release cycles later will
remove the warning and throw an error instead.

This patch is the first step.

MSYS2 actually allows to create files or directories whose names contain

As we are using an MSYS2 bash to run the tests, such files or

work with them because it is a regular Windows program, hence limited by
the Win32 API.

e3ab3bc22b t/t3600-rm.sh: use the $( ... ) construct for command substitution
The Git CodingGuidelines prefer the $(...) construct for command
substitution instead of using the backquotes `...`.

The backquoted form is the traditional method for command

simplest uses become complicated quickly.  In particular, embedded
command substitutions and/or the use of double quotes require
careful escaping with the backslash character.

27a6625b13 t3600: fix &&-chain breakage for setup commands
As with the earlier patch to fix "trivial" &&-chain
breakage, these missing "&&" operators are not a serious
problem (e.g., we do not expect "echo" to fail).

Ironically, however, inserting them shows that some of the
commands _do_ fail. Specifically, some of the tests start by
making sure we are at a commit with the string "content" in
the file "foo". However, running "git commit" may fail
because the previous test left us in that state already, and
there is nothing to commit.

We could remove these commands entirely, but they serve to
document the test's assumptions, as well as make it robust
when an earlier test has failed. We could use test_might_fail
to handle all cases, but that would miss an unrelated
failure to make the commit. Instead, we can just pass the
--allow-empty flag to git-commit, which means that it will
not complain if our setup is a noop.

056f34bbcd t3600: fix broken "choking git rm" test
The test 'choking "git rm" should not let it die with cruft' is
supposed to check 'git rm's behavior when interrupted by provoking a
SIGPIPE while 'git rm' is busily deleting files from a specially
crafted index.

This test is silently broken for the following reasons:

- The test crafts a special index by feeding a large number of index
  entries with null shas to 'git update-index --index-info'.  It was
  OK back then when this test was introduced in commit 0693f9ddad
  (Make sure lockfiles are unlocked when dying on SIGPIPE,
  2008-12-18), but since commit 4337b5856f (do not write null sha1s to
  on-disk index, 2012-07-28) null shas are not allowed in the on-disk
  index causing 'git update-index' to error out.

- The barfing 'git update-index --index-info' should fail the test,
  but it remains unnoticed because of the severely broken && chain:
  the test's result depends solely on whether there is a stale lock
  file left behind, but after 'git update-index' errors out 'git rm'
  won't be executed at all.

To fix this test feed only non-null shas to 'git update-index' and
restore the && chain (partly by adding a missing && and by using the
test_when_finished helper instead of manual cleanup).

from that of the superproject and the gitlink from the index. But the
submodule's section in .gitmodules is left untouched, which is a leftover
of the now removed submodule and might irritate users (as opposed to the
setting in .git/config, this must stay as a reminder that the user showed
interest in this submodule so it will be repopulated later when an older
commit is checked out).

Let "git rm" help the user by not only removing the submodule from the
work tree but by also removing the "submodule.<submodule name>" section
from the .gitmodules file and stage both. This doesn't happen when the
"--cached" option is used, as it would modify the work tree. This also
silently does nothing when no .gitmodules file is found and only issues a
warning when it doesn't have a section for this submodule. This is because
the user might just use plain gitlinks without the .gitmodules file or has
already removed the section by hand before issuing the "git rm" command
(in which case the warning reminds him that rm would have done that for
him). Only when .gitmodules is found and contains merge conflicts the rm
command will fail and tell the user to resolve the conflict before trying
again.

Also extend the man page to inform the user about this new feature. While
at it promote the submodule sub-section to a chapter as it made not much
sense under "REMOVING FILES THAT HAVE DISAPPEARED FROM THE FILESYSTEM".

In t7610 three uses of "git rm submod" had to be replaced with "git rm
--cached submod" because that test expects .gitmodules and the work tree
to stay untouched. Also in t7400 the tests for the remaining settings in
the .gitmodules file had to be changed to assert that these settings are
missing.

7e30944622 rm: introduce advice.rmHints to shorten messages
Introduce advice.rmHints to choose whether to display advice or not
when git rm fails. Defaults to true, in order to preserve current behavior.

As an example, the message:
	error: 'foo.txt' has changes staged in the index
	(use --cached to keep the file, or -f to force removal)

would look like, with advice.rmHints=false:
	error: 'foo.txt' has changes staged in the index

with the list of files involved, instead of displaying
a list of messages with one file each.

As an example, the old message:
	error: 'foo.txt' has changes staged in the index
	(use --cached to keep the file, or -f to force removal)
	error: 'bar.txt' has changes staged in the index
	(use --cached to keep the file, or -f to force removal)

would now be displayed as:

	    foo.txt
	    bar.txt
	(use --cached to keep the file, or -f to force removal)

03415ca8db t3600: document failure of rm across symbolic links
If we have a symlink "d" that points to a directory, we
should not be able to remove "d/f". In the normal case,
where "d/f" does not exist in the index, we already disallow
this, as we only remove things that git knows about in the
index. So for something like:

  ln -s /outside/repo foo
  git add foo
  git rm foo/bar

we will properly produce an error (as there is no index
entry for foo/bar). However, if there is an index entry for
the path (e.g., because the movement is due to working tree
changes that have not yet been reflected in the index), we
will happily delete it, even though the path we delete from the
filesystem is not the same as the path in the index.

This patch documents that failure with a test.

While this is a bug, it should not be possible to cause
serious data loss with it. For any path that does not have
an index entry, we will complain and bail. For a path which
does have an index entry, we will do the usual up-to-date
content check. So even if the deleted path in the filesystem
is not the same as the one we are removing from the index,
we do know that they at least have the same content, and
that the content is included in HEAD.

That means the worst case is not the accidental loss of
content, but rather confusion by the user when a copy of a
file another part of the tree is removed. Which makes this
bug a minor and hard-to-trigger annoyance rather than a
data-loss bug (and hence the fix can be saved for a rainy
day when somebody feels like working on it).

96ec8ee92a t3600: test behavior of reverse-d/f conflict
The previous commit taught "rm" that it is safe to consider
"d/f" removed when "d" has become a non-directory. This
patch adds a test for the opposite: a file "d" that becomes
a directory.

In this case, "git rm" does need to complain, because we
should not be removing arbitrary content under "d". Git
already behaves correctly, but let's make sure that remains
the case by protecting the behavior with a test.

9a6728d4d1 rm: do not complain about d/f conflicts during deletion
If we used to have an index entry "d/f", but "d" has been
replaced by a non-directory entry, the user may still want
to run "git rm" to delete the stale index entry. They could
use "git rm --cached" to just touch the index, but "git rm"
should also work: we explicitly try to handle the case that
the file has already been removed from the working tree.

However, because unlinking "d/f" in this case will not yield
ENOENT, but rather ENOTDIR, we do not notice that the file
is already gone. Instead, we report it as an error.

The simple solution is to treat ENOTDIR in this case exactly
like ENOENT; all we want to know is whether the file is
already gone, and if a leading path is no longer a
directory, then by definition the sub-path is gone.

53e4c5dcab Teach rm to remove submodules when given with a trailing '/'
Doing a "git rm submod/" on a submodule results in an error:
	fatal: pathspec 'submod/' did not match any files
This is really inconvenient as e.g. using TAB completion in a shell on a
submodule automatically adds the trailing '/' when it completes the path
of the submodule directory. The user has then to remove the '/' herself to
make a "git rm" succeed. Doing a "git rm -r somedir/" is working fine, so
there is no reason why that shouldn't work for submodules too.

Teach git rm to not error out when a '/' is appended to the path of a
submodule. Achieve this by chopping off trailing slashes from the path
names given if they represent directories. Add tests to make sure that
logic only applies to directories and not to files.

293ab15eea submodule: teach rm to remove submodules unless they contain a git directory
Currently using "git rm" on a submodule - populated or not - fails with
this error:

	fatal: git rm: '<submodule path>': Is a directory

This made sense in the past as there was no way to remove a submodule
without possibly removing unpushed parts of the submodule's history
contained in its .git directory too, so erroring out here protected the
user from possible loss of data.

But submodules cloned with a recent git version do not contain the .git
directory anymore, they use a gitfile to point to their git directory
which is safely stored inside the superproject's .git directory. The work
tree of these submodules can safely be removed without losing history, so
let's teach git to do so.

Using rm on an unpopulated submodule now removes the empty directory from
the work tree and the gitlink from the index. If the submodule's directory
is missing from the work tree, it will still be removed from the index.

Using rm on a populated submodule using a gitfile will apply the usual
checks for work tree modification adapted to submodules (unless forced).
For a submodule that means that the HEAD is the same as recorded in the
index, no tracked files are modified and no untracked files that aren't
ignored are present in the submodules work tree (ignored files are deemed
expendable and won't stop a submodule's work tree from being removed).
That logic has to be applied in all nested submodules too.

Using rm on a submodule which has its .git directory inside the work trees
top level directory will just error out like it did before to protect the
repository, even when forced. In the future git could either provide a
message informing the user to convert the submodule to use a gitfile or
even attempt to do the conversion itself, but that is not part of this
change.

similar semantics to RO_DIR. That commit removed the code to set
RO_DIR, but forgot to replace RO_DIR with SANITY in test #15.

In order not to skip test 15 unnecessarily, since RO_DIR will never
be set, we pass the SANITY prerequisite instead.

c91cfd1916 tests: A SANITY test prereq for testing if we're root
Some tests depend on not being able to write to files after chmod
-w. This doesn't work when running the tests as root.

Change test-lib.sh to test if this works, and if so it sets a new
SANITY test prerequisite. The tests that use this previously failed
when run under root.

There was already a test for this in t3600-rm.sh, added by Junio C
Hamano in 2283645 in 2006. That check now uses the new SANITY
prerequisite.

Some of this was resurrected from the "Tests in Cygwin" thread in May

3fc0d131c5 rm: fix bug in recursive subdirectory removal
If we remove a path in a/deep/subdirectory, we should try to
remove as many trailing components as possible (i.e.,
subdirectory, then deep, then a). However, the test for the
return value of rmdir was reversed, so we only ever deleted
at most one level.

The fix is in remove_path, so "apply" and "merge-recursive"
also are fixed.
