2026-07-06t: convert grep assertions to test_grepMichael Montalbo1-3/+3
Replace bare grep with test_grep in test assertions across the suite, including sourced test helpers (lib-*.sh, *-tests.sh). test_grep prints the contents of the file being searched on failure, making debugging easier than a bare grep which fails silently. Only assertion-style greps are converted: grep used as a filter in pipelines, command substitutions, conditionals, or with redirected I/O is left as-is with a "# lint-ok" annotation. Existing '! test_grep' calls are rewritten to 'test_grep !' so that the diagnostic output is preserved on failure. test_grep requires the file it reads to exist, so '! grep' assertions that inspect a file whose presence is conditional need care. In t5537 the '.git/shallow' file is still present after the repack (the client remains shallow), so the assertion is converted like any other. In t1400 the '.git/packed-refs' file exists only with the files backend, so its check is guarded with a REFFILES prerequisite; the backend-agnostic 'git show-ref' check that follows still runs under every backend. In t7450 'git~2' is the NTFS 8.3 short name of a '..git' file and only exists when 8.3 short-name generation is enabled, so its check is guarded with a 'test -f' on the path and uses test_grep inside the guard, the same shape as t1400 (a plain test_grep would BUG when the short name is absent). The conversion was generated using a grep-assertion linter (greplint.pl, added in the following commit) to identify bare grep calls at command position. To reproduce, from the t/ directory: # Step 1: annotate the two data-filter greps (grep produces # data, not a verdict) so the linter skips them. sed -i '/grep -vf before commits\.raw/s/$/ # lint-ok: data filter/' \ t5326-multi-pack-bitmaps.sh sed -i '/grep -E "^\[0-9a-f\].*|| :/s/$/ # lint-ok: data filter/' \ t5702-protocol-v2.sh # Step 1b: two '! grep' assertions need more than a mechanical # conversion; handle them by hand before the linter-driven steps # below so it leaves them alone. # # t1400: '.git/packed-refs' is absent under reftable, so guard the # check with REFFILES (a plain test_grep would BUG on the missing # file): # # git update-ref -d HEAD $B && # - ! grep "$m" .git/packed-refs && # + if test_have_prereq REFFILES # + then # + test_grep ! "$m" .git/packed-refs # + fi && # test_must_fail git show-ref --verify -q $m # # t7450: git~2 is an NTFS 8.3 short name that exists only when # short-name generation is enabled, so guard the check on its # presence with 'test -f' and note in a comment why the path can # be absent (a plain test_grep would BUG when it is): # # - ! grep gitdir squatting-clone/d/a/git~2 # + if test -f squatting-clone/d/a/git~2 # + then # + test_grep ! gitdir squatting-clone/d/a/git~2 # + fi # Step 2: reorder pre-existing '! test_grep' to 'test_grep !' # (must come before steps 3-4 so greplint does not see them) sed -i 's/! test_grep/test_grep !/' t0031-lockfile-pid.sh sed -i 's/! test_grep/test_grep !/' t5300-pack-object.sh sed -i 's/! test_grep/test_grep !/' t5319-multi-pack-index.sh # Step 3: convert '! grep' -> 'test_grep !' perl greplint.pl *.sh 2>&1 | cut -d: -f1,2 | while IFS=: read f l; do sed -i "${l}s/! *grep/test_grep !/" "$f" done # Step 4: convert remaining 'grep' -> 'test_grep' perl greplint.pl *.sh 2>&1 | cut -d: -f1,2 | while IFS=: read f l; do sed -i "${l}s/grep/test_grep/" "$f" done To verify, run: make -C t test-greplint Signed-off-by: Michael Montalbo <mmontalbo@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2026-03-04setup: improve error diagnosis for invalid .git filesTian Yuchen1-0/+77
'read_gitfile_gently()' treats any non-regular file as 'READ_GITFILE_ERR_NOT_A_FILE' and fails to discern between 'ENOENT' and other stat failures. This flawed error reporting is noted by two 'NEEDSWORK' comments. Address these comments by introducing two new error codes: 'READ_GITFILE_ERR_MISSING'(which groups the "file missing" scenarios together) and 'READ_GITFILE_ERR_IS_A_DIR': 1. Update 'read_gitfile_error_die()' to treat 'IS_A_DIR', 'MISSING', 'NOT_A_FILE' and 'STAT_FAILED' as non-fatal no-ops. This accommodates intentional non-repo scenarios (e.g., GIT_DIR=/dev/null). 2. Explicitly catch 'NOT_A_FILE' and 'STAT_FAILED' during discovery and call 'die()' if 'die_on_error' is set. 3. Unconditionally pass '&error_code' to 'read_gitfile_gently()'. 4. Only invoke 'is_git_directory()' when we explicitly receive 'READ_GITFILE_ERR_IS_A_DIR', avoiding redundant checks. Additionally, audit external callers of 'read_gitfile_gently()' in 'submodule.c' and 'worktree.c' to accommodate the refined error codes.
