When a commit is grepped and matching filenames are printed, grep-objects creates the filename by prefixing the original cmdline argument to the matched path separated by a colon. Normally this forms a valid blob reference to the filename, like this:
git grep -l foo HEAD HEAD:some/path/to/foo.txt ^ But a tree path may be given to grep instead; in this case the colon is not a valid delimiter to use since it is placed inside a path. git grep -l foo HEAD:some HEAD:some:path/to/foo.txt ^ The slash path delimiter should be used instead. Fix git grep to discern the correct delimiter so it can report valid object names. git grep -l foo HEAD:some HEAD:some/path/to/foo.txt ^ Also, prevent the delimiter being added twice, as happens now in these examples: git grep -l foo HEAD: HEAD::some/path/to/foo.txt ^ git grep -l foo HEAD:some/ HEAD:some/:path/to/foo.txt ^ Add a test to confirm correct path forming. --- This version is a bit more deterministic and also adds a test. It accepts the expense of examining the path argument again to determine if it is a tree-ish + path rather than just a tree (commit). The get_sha1 call occurs one extra time for each tree-ish argument, so it's not expensive. We avoid mucking with the object_array API this way, and also do not rely on the object-type to tell us anything about the way the object name was spelled. This one also adds a check to avoid duplicating an extant delimiter. builtin/grep.c | 9 ++++++++- t/t7810-grep.sh | 15 +++++++++++++++ 2 files changed, 23 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/builtin/grep.c b/builtin/grep.c index 03bc442..6fc418f 100644 --- a/builtin/grep.c +++ b/builtin/grep.c @@ -480,8 +480,15 @@ static int grep_object(struct grep_opt *opt, const struct pathspec *pathspec, len = name ? strlen(name) : 0; strbuf_init(&base, PATH_MAX + len + 1); if (len) { + struct object_context ctx; + unsigned char sha1[20]; + char delimiter = ':'; + if (!get_sha1_with_context(name, 0, sha1, &ctx) && + ctx.path[0]!=0) + delimiter='/'; strbuf_add(&base, name, len); - strbuf_addch(&base, ':'); + if (name[len-1] != delimiter) + strbuf_addch(&base, delimiter); } init_tree_desc(&tree, data, size); hit = grep_tree(opt, pathspec, &tree, &base, base.len, diff --git a/t/t7810-grep.sh b/t/t7810-grep.sh index f698001..2494bfc 100755 --- a/t/t7810-grep.sh +++ b/t/t7810-grep.sh @@ -886,6 +886,21 @@ test_expect_success 'grep -e -- -- path' ' ' cat >expected <<EOF +HEAD:t/a/v:1:vvv +HEAD:t/v:1:vvv +EOF + +test_expect_success "grep HEAD -- path/" ' + git grep -n -e vvv HEAD -- t/ >actual && + test_cmp expected actual +' + +test_expect_success "grep HEAD:path" ' + git grep -n -e vvv HEAD:t/ >actual && + test_cmp expected actual +' + +cat >expected <<EOF hello.c:int main(int argc, const char **argv) hello.c: printf("Hello world.\n"); EOF -- 1.8.4.557.g34b3a2e -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
