2026-03-03t3700: use test_grep helper for better diagnosticsSiddharth Shrimali
Replace 'grep' and '! grep' invocations with 'test_grep' and 'test_grep !'. This provides better debugging output if tests fail in the future, as 'test_grep' will automatically print the contents of the file when a check fails. While at it, update any remaining instances of 'grep' to 'test_grep' that were missed in the previous versions to ensure that the entire file is consistent with modern project style.

2026-03-03t3700: avoid suppressing git's exit codeSiddharth Shrimali
Replace pipelines involving git commands with temporary files (actual) to ensure that any crashes or unexpected exit codes from the git commands are properly caught by the test suite. A simple pipeline like 'git foo | grep bar' ignores the exit code of 'git', which can hide regressions. In cases where we were counting lines with 'wc -l' to ensure a pattern was absent, simplify the logic to use '! grep' to avoid subshells entirely.

2025-11-15read-cache: drop submodule check from add_to_cache()Jeff King
In add_to_cache(), we treat any directories as submodules, and complain if we can't resolve their HEAD. This call to resolve_gitlink_ref() was added by f937bc2f86 (add: error appropriately on repository with no commits, 2019-04-09), with the goal of improving the error message for empty repositories. But we already resolve the submodule HEAD in index_path(), which is where we find the actual oid we're going to use. Resolving it again here introduces some downsides: 1. It's more work, since we have to open up the submodule repository's files twice. 2. There are call paths that get to index_path() without going through add_to_cache(). For instance, we'd want a similar informative message if "git diff empty" finds that it can't resolve the submodule's HEAD. (In theory we can also get there through update-index, but AFAICT it refuses to consider directories as submodules at all, and just complains about them). 3. The resolution in index_path() catches more errors that we don't handle here. In particular, it will validate that the object format for the submodule matches that of the superproject. This isn't a bug, since our call in add_to_cache() throws away the oid it gets without looking at it. But it certainly caused confusion for me when looking at where the object-format check should go. So instead of resolving the submodule HEAD in add_to_cache(), let's just teach the call in index_path() to actually produce an error message (which it already does for other cases). That's probably what f937bc2f86 should have done in the first place, and it gives us a single point of resolution when adding a submodule to the index. The resulting output is slightly more verbose, as we propagate the error up the call stack, but I think that's OK (and again, matches many other errors we get when indexing fails). I've left the text of the error message as-is, though it is perhaps overly specific. There are many reasons that resolving the submodule HEAD might fail, though outside of corruption or system errors it is probably most likely that the submodule HEAD is simply on an unborn branch.

2025-11-15object-file: disallow adding submodules of different hash algobrian m. carlson
The design of the hash algorithm transition plan is that objects stored must be entirely in one algorithm since we lack any way to indicate a mix of algorithms. This also includes submodules, but we have traditionally not enforced this, which leads to various problems when trying to clone or check out the the submodule from the remote. Since this cannot work in the general case, restrict adding a submodule of a different algorithm to the index. Add tests for git add and git submodule add that these are rejected. Note that we cannot check this in git fsck because the malformed submodule is stored in the tree as an object ID which is either truncated (when a SHA-256 submodule is added to a SHA-1 repository) or padded with zeros (when a SHA-1 submodule is added to a SHA-256 repository). We cannot detect even the latter case because someone could have an actual submodule that actually ends in 24 zeros, which would be a false positive.

By following a similar reasoning as in previous commits, there are no reason why we should not use the advise_if_enabled() API to display the ADVICE_ADD_EMBEDDED_REPO advice. This advice was introduced in 532139940c (add: warn when adding an embedded repository, 2017-06-14). Some tests were included in the commit, but none is testing this advice.

Since 93b0d86aaf (git-add: error out when given no arguments., 2006-12-20) we display a message when no arguments are given to "git add". Part of that message was converted to advice in bf66db37f1 (add: use advise function to display hints, 2020-01-07). Following the same line of reasoning as in the previous commit, it is sensible to use advise_if_enabled() here. Therefore, use advise_if_enabled() in builtin/add.c to show the ADVICE_ADD_EMPTY_PATHSPEC advice, and don't bother checking there the visibility of the advice or displaying the instruction on how to disable it. Also add a test for these messages, in order to detect a possible change in them. Signed-off-by: Rubén Justo <rjusto@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2024-03-30add: use advise_if_enabled for ADVICE_ADD_IGNORED_FILERubén Justo
Since b3b18d1621 (advice: revamp advise API, 2020-03-02), we can use advise_if_enabled() to display an advice. This API encapsulates three actions: 1.- checking the visibility of the advice 2.- displaying the advice when appropriate 3.- displaying instructions on how to disable the advice, when appropriate The code we have in builtin/add.c to display the ADVICE_ADD_IGNORED_FILE advice, is doing these three things. However, the instructions displayed on how to disable the hint are not shown in the normalized way that advise_if_enabled() introduced. This may cause distraction. There is no reason not to use the new API here. On the contrary, by using it we gain simplicity in the code and avoid possible distractions. For these reasons, use the newer advise_if_enabled() machinery to show the ADVICE_ADD_IGNORED_FILE advice, and don't bother checking the visibility or displaying the instruction on how to disable the advice.

2023-11-02tests: teach callers of test_i18ngrep to use test_grepJunio C Hamano
They are equivalents and the former still exists, so as long as the only change this commit makes are to rewrite test_i18ngrep to test_grep, there won't be any new bug, even if there still are callers of test_i18ngrep remaining in the tree, or when merged to other topics that add new uses of test_i18ngrep. This patch was produced more or less with git grep -l -e 'test_i18ngrep ' 't/t[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]-*.sh' | xargs perl -p -i -e 's/test_i18ngrep /test_grep /' and a good way to sanity check the result yourself is to run the above in a checkout of c4603c1c (test framework: further deprecate test_i18ngrep, 2023-10-31) and compare the resulting working tree contents with the result of applying this patch to the same commit.

2023-02-06tests: don't lose "git" exit codes in "! ( git ... | grep )"Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason
Change tests that would lose the "git" exit code via a negation pattern to: - In the case of "t0055-beyond-symlinks.sh" compare against the expected output instead. We could use the same pattern as in the "t3700-add.sh" below, doing so would have the advantage that if we added an earlier test we wouldn't need to adjust the "expect" output. But as "t0055-beyond-symlinks.sh" is a small and focused test (less than 40 lines in total) let's use "test_cmp" instead. - For "t3700-add.sh" use "sed -n" to print the expected "bad" part, and use "test_must_be_empty" to assert that it's not there. If we used "grep" we'd get a non-zero exit code. We could use "test_expect_code 1 grep", but this is more consistent with existing patterns in the test suite. We can also remove a repeated invocation of "git ls-files" for the last test that's being modified in that file, and search the existing "files" output instead.

2021-12-13t0000-t3999: detect and signal failure within loopEric Sunshine
Failures within `for` and `while` loops can go unnoticed if not detected and signaled manually since the loop itself does not abort when a contained command fails, nor will a failure necessarily be detected when the loop finishes since the loop returns the exit code of the last command it ran on the final iteration, which may not be the command which failed. Therefore, detect and signal failures manually within loops using the idiom `|| return 1` (or `|| exit 1` within subshells).

2021-10-07ls-files: fix a trivial dir_clear() leakÆvar Arnfjörð Bjarmason
Fix an edge case that was missed when the dir_clear() call was added in eceba532141 (dir: fix problematic API to avoid memory leaks, 2020-08-18), we need to also clean up when we're about to exit with non-zero. That commit says, on the topic of the dir_clear() API and UNLEAK(): [...]two of them clearly thought about leaks since they had an UNLEAK(dir) directive, which to me suggests that the method to free the data was too unclear. I think that 0e5bba53af7 (add UNLEAK annotation for reducing leak false positives, 2017-09-08) which added the UNLEAK() makes it clear that that wasn't the case, rather it was the desire to avoid the complexity of freeing the memory at the end of the program. This does add a bit of complexity, but I think it's worth it to just fix these leaks when it's easy in built-ins. It allows them to serve as canaries for underlying APIs that shouldn't be leaking, it encourages us to make those freeing APIs nicer for all their users, and it prevents other leaking regressions by being able to mark the entire test as TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK=true.

2021-02-24add: propagate --chmod errors to exit statusMatheus Tavares
If `add` encounters an error while applying the --chmod changes, it prints a message to stderr, but exits with a success code. This might have been an oversight, as the command does exit with a non-zero code in other situations where it cannot (or refuses to) update all of the requested paths (e.g. when some of the given paths are ignored). So make the exit behavior more consistent by also propagating --chmod errors to the exit status. Note: the test "all statuses changed in folder if . is given" uses paths added by previous test cases, some of which might be symbolic links. Because `git add --chmod` will now fail with such paths, this test would depend on whether all the previous tests were executed, or only some of them. Avoid that by running the test on a fresh repo with only regular files.

2019-04-10dir: do not traverse repositories with no commitsKyle Meyer
When treat_directory() encounters a directory that is not in the index and DIR_NO_GITLINKS is unset, it calls resolve_gitlink_ref() to decide if a directory looks like a repository, in which case the directory won't be traversed. As a result, 'status -uall' and 'ls-files -o' will show only the directory, even when there are untracked files within the directory. For the unusual case where a repository doesn't have a commit checked out, resolve_gitlink_ref() returns -1 because HEAD cannot be resolved, and the directory is treated as a normal directory (i.e. traversal does not stop at the repository boundary). The status and ls-files commands above list untracked files within the repository rather than showing only the top-level directory. And if 'git add' is called on a repository with no commit checked out, any untracked files under the repository are added as blobs in the top-level project, a behavior that is unlikely to be what the caller intended. The above case is a corner case in an already unusual situation of the working tree containing a repository that is not a tracked submodule, but we might as well treat anything that looks like a repository consistently. Loosen the "looks like a repository" criteria in treat_directory() by replacing resolve_gitlink_ref() with is_nonbare_repository_dir(), one of the checks that is performed downstream when resolve_gitlink_ref() is called. As the required update to t3700-add shows, calling 'git add' on a repository with no commit checked out will now raise an error. While this is the desired behavior, note that the output isn't yet appropriate. The next commit will improve this output.

2017-06-23pathspec: die on empty strings as pathspecEmily Xie
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.

2016-10-26Merge branch 'ex/deprecate-empty-pathspec-as-match-all'Junio C Hamano
An empty string used as a pathspec element has always meant 'everything matches', but it is too easy to write a script that finds a path to remove in $path and run 'git rm "$paht"', which ends up removing everything. Start warning about this use of an empty string used for 'everything matches' and ask users to use a more explicit '.' for that instead. The hope is that existing users will not mind this change, and eventually the warning can be turned into a hard error, upgrading the deprecation into removal of this (mis)feature. * ex/deprecate-empty-pathspec-as-match-all: pathspec: warn on empty strings as pathspec
2016-10-20t3700: fix broken test under !SANITYJunio C Hamano
An "add --chmod=+x" test recently added by 610d55af0f ("add: modify already added files when --chmod is given", 2016-09-14) used "xfoo3" as a test file. The paths xfoo[1-3] were used by earlier tests for symbolic links but they were expected to have been removed by the time the execution reached this new test. The removal with "git reset --hard" however happened in a pair of earlier tests, both of which are protected by POSIXPERM,SANITY prerequisites. Platforms and test environments that lacked these would have seen xfoo3 as a leftover symbolic link that points at somewhere else at this point of the sequence, and the chmod test would have given a wrong result.

2016-09-21t3700-add: do not check working tree file mode without POSIXPERMJohannes Sixt
A recently introduced test checks the result of 'git status' after setting the executable bit on a file. This check does not yield the expected result when the filesystem does not support the executable bit. What we care about is that a file added with "--chmod=+x" has executable bit in the index and that "--chmod=+x" (or any other options for that matter) does not muck with working tree files. The former is tested by other existing tests, so let's check the latter more explicitly and only under POSIXPERM prerequisite.

2016-09-21t3700-add: create subdirectory gentlyJohannes Sixt
The subdirectory 'sub' is created early in the test file. Later, a test case removes it during its clean-up actions. However, this test case is protected by POSIXPERM. Consequently, 'sub' remains when the POSIXPERM prerequisite is not satisfied. Later, a recently introduced test case creates 'sub' again. Use -p with mkdir so that it does not fail if 'sub' already exists. Signed-off-by: Johannes Sixt <j6t@kdbg.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2016-09-15add: modify already added files when --chmod is givenThomas Gummerer
When the chmod option was added to git add, it was hooked up to the diff machinery, meaning that it only works when the version in the index differs from the version on disk. As the option was supposed to mirror the chmod option in update-index, which always changes the mode in the index, regardless of the status of the file, make sure the option behaves the same way in git add.

2016-08-01t3700: merge two tests into oneIngo Brückl
Depending on the underlying platform a chmod may be a noop. Although it wouldn't harm the result of the '--chmod=-x' test, there is a more robust way to make sure the --chmod option works both ways. Merge the two separate tests for the --chmod option into one, checking both permissions on the same file.

2016-08-01t3700: remove unwanted leftover files before running new testsIngo Brückl
When an earlier test that has prerequisite is skipped, files used by later tests may be left in the working tree in an unexpected state. For example, a test runs this sequence: echo foo >xfoo1 && chmod 755 xfoo1 to create an executable file xfoo1, expecting that xfoo1 does not exist before it runs in the test sequence. However, the absence of this file depends on "git reset --hard" done in an earlier test, that is skipped when SANITY prerequisite is not met, and worse yet, xfoo1 originally is created as a symbolic link, which means the chmod does not affect the modes of xfoo1 as this test expects. Fix this by starting the test with "rm -f xfoo1" to make sure the file is created from scratch, and do the same to other similar tests.

2016-06-22pathspec: warn on empty strings as pathspecEmily Xie
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.
