Subject: [PATCH v2] show: add --follow-symlinks option for <rev>:<path>
Date: Mon, 16 Apr 2018 11:36:24 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180416093625.15752-1-mvo@ubuntu.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <87fu3yg6od.fsf@evledraar.gmail.com>
Updated version of the `git show --follow-symlink` patch. This version
includes the feedback from Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason and Stefan Beller:
- commit message updated
- test fixes merged from Ævar (thanks!)
- Documentation/git-show.txt clarified
It does not include a test for --follow-symlinks in the dirlink case
when a file is behind a dirlink symlink. This this currently fails with
a non-descriptive error message. I hope to find time to improve this
error message at some point and then a test for this will be added.
It also does not include a test for a repo with symlinks when running
on a system without SYMLINKS. I don't have access to such a system,
sorry.
