Subject: [PATCH] add: do not accept pathspec magic 'attr'
Date: Tue, 18 Sep 2018 19:31:59 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180918173159.30300-1-pclouds@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180917015259.GA26339@sebastianaudet.com>
Commit b0db704652 (pathspec: allow querying for attributes -
2017-03-13) adds new pathspec magic 'attr' but only with
match_pathspec(). "git add" has some pathspec related code that still
does not know about 'attr' and will bail out:
$ git add ':(attr:foo)'
fatal: BUG:dir.c:1584: unsupported magic 40
A better solution would be making this code support 'attr'. But I
don't know how much work is needed (I'm not familiar with this new
magic). For now, let's simply reject this magic with a friendlier
message:
$ git add ':(attr:foo)'
fatal: :(attr:foo): pathspec magic not supported by this command: 'attr'

Since Brandon is currently unreachable, let's do this for now. I
might eventually find time to go over pathspec code and see if I can
add 'attr' support to the rest of the commands, but no promise.
