Windows: Treat Windows style path names.

GIT's guts work with a forward slash as a path separators. We do not change
that. Rather we make sure that only "normalized" paths enter the depths
of the machinery.

We have to translate backslashes to forward slashes in the prefix and in
command line arguments. Fortunately, all of them are passed through
functions in setup.c.

A macro has_dos_drive_path() is defined that checks whether a path begins
with a drive letter+colon combination. This predicate is always false on
Unix. Another macro is_dir_sep() abstracts that a backslash is also a
directory separator on Windows.

16 years agoclean up error conventions of remote.c:match_explicit
Jeff King [Mon, 16 Jun 2008 16:15:02 +0000 (12:15 -0400)]
clean up error conventions of remote.c:match_explicit

match_explicit is called for each push refspec to try to
fully resolve the source and destination sides of the
refspec.  Currently, we look at each refspec and report
errors on both the source and the dest side before aborting.

It makes sense to report errors for each refspec, since an
error in one is independent of an error in the other.
However, reporting errors on the 'dst' side of a refspec if
there has been an error on the 'src' side does not
necessarily make sense, since the interpretation of the
'dst' side depends on the 'src' side (for example, when
creating a new unqualified remote ref, we use the same type
as the src ref).

This patch lets match_explicit return early when the src
side of the refspec is bogus. We still look at all of the
refspecs before aborting the push, though.

At the same time, we clean up the call signature, which
previously took an extra "errs" flag. This was pointless, as
we didn't act on that flag, but rather just passed it back
to the caller. Instead, we now use the more traditional
"return -1" to signal an error, and the caller aggregates
the error count.

This change fixes two bugs, as well:

  - the early return avoids a segfault when passing a NULL
    matched_src to guess_ref()

  - the check for multiple sources pointing to a single dest
    aborted if the "err" flag was set. Presumably the intent
    was not to bother with the check if we had no
    matched_src. However, since the err flag was passed in
    from the caller, we might abort the check just because a
    previous refspec had a problem, which doesn't make
    sense.

    In practice, this didn't matter, since due to the error
    flag we end up aborting the push anyway.

If we are exporting a commit which has no parents we may be doing

the branch's current revision should be the sole parent of the

to produce an incorrect graph for:

   A-------M----o------o  refs/heads/master

In this graph A and B are initial commits (no parents) but if A was
output first to refs/heads/master and then B is output fast-import
would assume the graph was this instead:

   A-------M----o------o  refs/heads/master
    \     /
     +-B-+

Which would cause B, M, and all later commits to have a different
SHA-1, and obviously be quite a different graph.

Sending a reset command prior to B informs fast-import to clear
the implied parent of A, allowing B to remain an initial commit.

Port to 12 other Platforms.

This patch adds support to compile and run git on 12 additional platforms.
The platforms are based on UNIX Systems Labs (USL)/Novell/SYS V code base.
The most common are Novell UnixWare 2.X.X, SCO UnixWare 7.X.X,
OpenServer 5.0.X, OpenServer 6.0.X, and SCO pre OSR 5 platforms.

Looking at the the various platform headers, I find:

#if defined(_KERNEL) || !defined(_POSIX_SOURCE) \
     && !defined(_POSIX_C_SOURCE) && !defined(_XOPEN_SOURCE)

which hides u_short and other typedefs that other header files on these
platforms depend on.  WIth _XOPEN_SOURCE defined, sources that include
system header files that depend on the typedefs such as u_short cannot be
compiled on these platforms.

__USLC__ indicates UNIX System Labs Corperation (USLC), or a Novell-derived
compiler and/or some SysV based OS's.

__M_UNIX indicates XENIX/SCO UNIX/OpenServer 5.0.7 and prior releases
of the SCO OS's.  It is used just like Apple and BSD, both of these
shouldn't have _XOPEN_SOURCE defined.

This is with suggestions and modifications from

Daniel Barkalow, Junio C Hamano, Thomas Harning, and Jeremy Maitin-Shepard.

progress.c: avoid use of dynamic-sized array

Dynamically sized arrays are gcc and C99 construct.  Using them hurts
portability to older compilers, although using them is nice in this case
it is not desirable.  This patch removes the only use of the construct
in stop_progress_msg(); the function is about writing out a single line
of a message, and the existing callers of this function feed messages
of only bounded size anyway, so use of dynamic array is simply overkill.

Docs: Use "-l::\n--long\n" format in OPTIONS sections

The OPTIONS section of a documentation file contains a list
of the options a git command accepts.

Currently there are several variants to describe the case that
different options (almost) do the same in the OPTIONS section.

Some are:

 -f, --foo::
 -f|--foo::
 -f | --foo::

But AsciiDoc has the special form:

 -f::
 --foo::

This patch applies this form to the documentation of the whole git suite,
and removes useless em-dash prevention, so \--foo becomes --foo.
