The expected call sequence is for the caller to use match_pathspec()
repeatedly on a set of pathspecs, accumulating the "hits" in a
separate array, and then call this function to diagnose a pathspec
that never matched anything, as that can indicate a typo from the
command line, e.g. "git commit Maekfile".
Many builtin commands use this function from builtin/ls-files.c,
which is not a very healthy arrangement. ls-files might have been
the first command to feel the need for such a helper, but the need
is shared by everybody who uses the "match and then report" pattern.
Move it to dir.c where match_pathspec() is defined.

This patch activates the DO_MATCH_DIRECTORY code in m_p_i(), which
makes "git diff HEAD submodule/" and "git diff HEAD submodule" produce
the same output. Previously only the version without trailing slash
returns the difference (if any).
That's the effect of new ce_path_match(). dir_path_match() is not
executed by the new tests. And it should not introduce regressions.
Previously if path "dir/" is passed in with pathspec "dir/", they
obviously match. With new dir_path_match(), the path becomes
_directory_ "dir" vs pathspec "dir/", which is not executed by the old
code path in m_p_i(). The new code path is executed and produces the
same result.
The other case is pathspec "dir" and path "dir/" is now turned to
"dir" (with DO_MATCH_DIRECTORY). Still the same result before or after
the patch.
So why change? Because of the next patch about clean.c.

- match against a dir_entry from read_directory (dir_path_match and

"ls-files -o" and "ls-files -k" both traverse the working tree down
to find either all untracked paths or those that will be "killed"
(removed from the working tree to make room) when the paths recorded
in the index are checked out. It is necessary to traverse the
working tree fully when enumerating all the "other" paths, but when
we are only interested in "killed" paths, we can take advantage of
the fact that paths that do not overlap with entries in the index
can never be killed.
The treat_one_path() helper function, which is called during the
recursive traversal, is the ideal place to implement an
optimization.
When we are looking at a directory P in the working tree, there are
three cases:
(1) P exists in the index. Everything inside the directory P in
the working tree needs to go when P is checked out from the
index.
(2) P does not exist in the index, but there is P/Q in the index.
We know P will stay a directory when we check out the contents
of the index, but we do not know yet if there is a directory
P/Q in the working tree to be killed, so we need to recurse.
(3) P does not exist in the index, and there is no P/Q in the index
to require P to be a directory, either. Only in this case, we
know that everything inside P will not be killed without
recursing.
Note that this helper is called by treat_leading_path() that decides
if we need to traverse only subdirectories of a single common
leading directory, which is essential for this optimization to be
correct. This caller checks each level of the leading path
component from shallower directory to deeper ones, and that is what
allows us to only check if the path appears in the index. If the
call to treat_one_path() weren't there, given a path P/Q/R, the real
traversal may start from directory P/Q/R, even when the index
records P as a regular file, and we would end up having to check if
any leading subpath in P/Q/R, e.g. P, appears in the index.

I attempted to make index_state->cache[] a "const struct cache_entry **"
to find out how existing entries in index are modified and where. The
question I have is what do we do if we really need to keep track of on-disk
changes in the index. The result is
- diff-lib.c: setting CE_UPTODATE
- name-hash.c: setting CE_HASHED
- preload-index.c, read-cache.c, unpack-trees.c and
builtin/update-index: obvious
- entry.c: write_entry() may refresh the checked out entry via
fill_stat_cache_info(). This causes "non-const struct cache_entry
*" in builtin/apply.c, builtin/checkout-index.c and
builtin/checkout.c
- builtin/ls-files.c: --with-tree changes stagemask and may set
CE_UPDATE
Of these, write_entry() and its call sites are probably most
interesting because it modifies on-disk info. But this is stat info
and can be retrieved via refresh, at least for porcelain
commands. Other just uses ce_flags for local purposes.
So, keeping track of "dirty" entries is just a matter of setting a
flag in index modification functions exposed by read-cache.c. Except
unpack-trees, the rest of the code base does not do anything funny
behind read-cache's back.
The actual patch is less valueable than the summary above. But if
anyone wants to re-identify the above sites. Applying this patch, then

quote_path_relative() used to take a counted string as its parameter

Remove the length parameter from quote_path_relative() to show that
this parameter was redundant. All the changed lines show that the

string), or the length of the string, so the earlier conversion was
safe.

Substitute the function path_relative in quote.c with the function
relative_path. Function relative_path can be treated as an enhanced
and more robust version of path_relative.
Outputs of path_relative and it's replacement (relative_path) are the
same for the following cases:
path prefix output of path_relative output of relative_path
======== ========= ======================= =======================
/a/b/c/ /a/b/ c/ c/
/a/b/c /a/b/ c c
/a/ /a/b/ ../ ../
/ /a/b/ ../../ ../../
/a/c /a/b/ ../c ../c
/x/y /a/b/ ../../x/y ../../x/y
a/b/c/ a/b/ c/ c/
a/ a/b/ ../ ../
x/y a/b/ ../../x/y ../../x/y
/a/b (empty) /a/b /a/b
/a/b (null) /a/b /a/b
a/b (empty) a/b a/b
a/b (null) a/b a/b
But if both of the path and the prefix are the same, or the returned
relative path should be the current directory, the outputs of both
functions are different. Function relative_path returns "./", while
function path_relative returns empty string.
path prefix output of path_relative output of relative_path
======== ========= ======================= =======================
/a/b/ /a/b/ (empty) ./
a/b/ a/b/ (empty) ./
(empty) (null) (empty) ./
(empty) (empty) (empty) ./
But the callers of path_relative can handle such cases, or never
encounter this issue at all, because:
* In function quote_path_relative, if the output of path_relative is
empty, append "./" to it, like:
if (!out->len)
strbuf_addstr(out, "./");
* Another caller is write_name_quoted_relative, which is only used
by builtin/ls-files.c. git-ls-files only show files, so path of
files will never be identical with the prefix of a directory.
The following differences show that path_relative does not handle
extra slashes properly:
path prefix output of path_relative output of relative_path
======== ========= ======================= =======================
/a//b//c/ //a/b// ../../../../a//b//c/ c/
a/b//c a//b ../b//c c
And if prefix has no trailing slash, path_relative does not work
properly either. But since prefix always has a trailing slash, it's
not a problem.
path prefix output of path_relative output of relative_path
======== ========= ======================= =======================
/a/b/c/ /a/b b/c/ c/
/a/b /a/b b ./
/a/b/ /a/b b/ ./
/a /a/b/ ../../a ../
a/b/c/ a/b b/c/ c/
a/b/ a/b b/ ./
a a/b ../a ../
x/y a/b/ ../x/y ../../x/y
a/c a/b c ../c
/a/ /a/b (empty) ../
(empty) /a/b ../../ ./
One tricky part in this conversion is write_name() function in
ls-files.c. It takes a counted string, <name, len>, that is to be
made relative to <prefix, prefix_len> and then quoted. Because
write_name_quoted_relative() still takes these two parameters as
counted string, but ignores the count and treat these two as
NUL-terminated strings, this conversion needs to be audited for its
callers:
- For <name, len>, all three callers of write_name() passes a
NUL-terminated string and its true length, so this patch makes
"len" unused.
- For <prefix, prefix_len>, prefix could be a string that is longer
than empty while prefix_len could be 0 when "--full-name" option
is used. This is fixed by checking prefix_len in write_name()
and calling write_name_quoted_relative() with NULL when
prefix_len is set to 0. Again, this makes "prefix_len" given to
write_name_quoted_relative() unused, without introducing a bug.

For exclude patterns read in from files, the filename is stored in the

individual exclude (counting starting at 1).
For exclude patterns provided on the command line, a string describing
the source of the patterns is stored in the exclude list, and the
sequence number assigned to each exclude pattern is negative, with
counting starting at -1. So for example the 2nd pattern provided via
--exclude would be numbered -2. This allows any future consumers of
that data to easily distinguish between exclude patterns from files
vs. from the CLI.

Previously each exclude_list could potentially contain patterns
from multiple sources. For example dir->exclude_list[EXC_FILE]
would typically contain patterns from .git/info/exclude and
core.excludesfile, and dir->exclude_list[EXC_DIRS] could contain
patterns from multiple per-directory .gitignore files during
directory traversal (i.e. when dir->exclude_stack was more than
one item deep).
We split these composite exclude_lists up into three groups of
exclude_lists (EXC_CMDL / EXC_DIRS / EXC_FILE as before), so that each
exclude_list now contains patterns from a single source. This will
allow us to cleanly track the origin of each pattern simply by adding
a src field to struct exclude_list, rather than to struct exclude,
which would make memory management of the source string tricky in the
EXC_DIRS case where its contents are dynamically generated.
Similarly, by moving the filebuf member from struct exclude_stack to
struct exclude_list, it allows us to track and subsequently free
memory buffers allocated during the parsing of all exclude files,
rather than only tracking buffers allocated for files in the EXC_DIRS
group.

"git ls-files --exclude=t/ -i" does not show paths in directory t/
that have been added to the index, but it should.
The excluded() API was designed for callers who walk the tree from
the top, checking each level of the directory hierarchy as it
descends if it is excluded, and not even bothering to recurse into
an excluded directory. This would allow us optimize for a common
case by not having to check if the exclude pattern "foo/" matches
when looking at "foo/bar", because the caller should have noticed
that "foo" is excluded and did not even bother to read "foo/bar"
out of opendir()/readdir() to call it.
The code for "ls-files -i" however walks the index linearly, feeding
paths without checking if the leading directory is already excluded.
Introduce a helper function path_excluded() to let this caller
properly call excluded() check for higher hierarchies as necessary.

The following sequence of commands reveals an issue with error
reporting of relative paths:
$ mkdir sub
$ cd sub
$ git ls-files --error-unmatch ../bbbbb
error: pathspec 'b' did not match any file(s) known to git.
$ git commit --error-unmatch ../bbbbb
error: pathspec 'b' did not match any file(s) known to git.
This bug is visible only if the normalized path (i.e., the relative
path from the repository root) is longer than the prefix.
Otherwise, the code skips over the normalized path and reads from
an unused memory location which still contains a leftover of the
original command line argument.
So instead, use the existing facilities to deal with relative paths
correctly.
Also fix inconsistency between "checkout" and "commit", e.g.
$ cd Documentation
$ git checkout nosuch.txt
error: pathspec 'Documentation/nosuch.txt' did not match...
$ git commit nosuch.txt
error: pathspec 'nosuch.txt' did not match...
by propagating the prefix down the codepath that reports the error.

In order to do partial commits, git-commit overlays a tree on the
cache and checks pathspecs against the result. Currently, the
overlaying is done using "prefix" which prevents relative pathspecs
with ".." and absolute pathspec from matching when they refer to
files not under "prefix" and absent from the index, but still in
the tree (i.e. files staged for removal).
The point of providing a prefix at all is performance optimization.
If we say there is no common prefix for the files of interest, then
we have to read the entire tree into the index.
But even if we cannot use the working directory as a prefix, we can
still figure out if there is a common prefix for all given paths,
and use that instead. The pathspec_prefix() routine from ls-files.c
does exactly that.
Any use of global variables is removed from pathspec_prefix() so
that it can be called from commit.c.

early), than it can be safely converted to the macro.
A notable exception are the callers in builtin/remote.c. If converted, the
readability in the file will suffer greately. Besides, the code is not very
performance critical (at the moment, at least): it does output formatting of
the list of remotes.
