From 4002ec3dcf0f89db46fbdf56549218c573a9c0f2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?=C3=86var=20Arnfj=C3=B6r=C3=B0=20Bjarmason?= Date: Tue, 20 Dec 2022 13:39:56 +0100 Subject: read-tree: add "--super-prefix" option, eliminate global MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit The "--super-prefix" option to "git" was initially added in [1] for use with "ls-files"[2], and shortly thereafter "submodule--helper"[3] and "grep"[4]. It wasn't until [5] that "read-tree" made use of it. At the time [5] made sense, but since then we've made "ls-files" recurse in-process in [6], "grep" in [7], and finally "submodule--helper" in the preceding commits. Let's also remove it from "read-tree", which allows us to remove the option to "git" itself. We can do this because the only remaining user of it is the submodule API, which will now invoke "read-tree" with its new "--super-prefix" option. It will only do so when the "submodule_move_head()" function is called. That "submodule_move_head()" function was then only invoked by "read-tree" itself, but now rather than setting an environment variable to pass "--super-prefix" between cmd_read_tree() we: - Set a new "super_prefix" in "struct unpack_trees_options". The "super_prefixed()" function in "unpack-trees.c" added in [5] will now use this, rather than get_super_prefix() looking up the environment variable we set earlier in the same process. - Add the same field to the "struct checkout", which is only needed to ferry the "super_prefix" in the "struct unpack_trees_options" all the way down to the "entry.c" callers of "submodule_move_head()". Those calls which used the super prefix all originated in "cmd_read_tree()". The only other caller is the "unlink_entry()" caller in "builtin/checkout.c", which now passes a "NULL". 1. 74866d75793 (git: make super-prefix option, 2016-10-07) 2. e77aa336f11 (ls-files: optionally recurse into submodules, 2016-10-07) 3. 89c86265576 (submodule helper: support super prefix, 2016-12-08) 4. 0281e487fd9 (grep: optionally recurse into submodules, 2016-12-16) 5. 3d415425c7b (unpack-trees: support super-prefix option, 2017-01-17) 6. 188dce131fa (ls-files: use repository object, 2017-06-22) 7. f9ee2fcdfa0 (grep: recurse in-process using 'struct repository', 2017-08-02) Signed-off-by: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano --- builtin.h | 4 ---- 1 file changed, 4 deletions(-) (limited to 'builtin.h') diff --git a/builtin.h b/builtin.h index aa955466b4..46cc789789 100644 --- a/builtin.h +++ b/builtin.h @@ -51,10 +51,6 @@ * on bare repositories. * This only makes sense when `RUN_SETUP` is also set. * - * `SUPPORT_SUPER_PREFIX`: - * - * The built-in supports `--super-prefix`. - * * `DELAY_PAGER_CONFIG`: * * If RUN_SETUP or RUN_SETUP_GENTLY is set, git.c normally handles -- cgit v1.2.3
