Test whether the shell will expand the value of PS1, and use the result to control whether raw ref names are included directly in PS1. This fixes a regression introduced in commit 8976500 ("git-prompt.sh: don't put unsanitized branch names in $PS1"): zsh does not expand PS1 by default, but that commit assumed it did. The bug resulted in prompts containing the literal string '${__git_ps1_branch_name}' instead of the actual branch name. Reported-by: Caleb Thompson Signed-off-by: Richard Hansen --- To prevent a regression like this from happening again, I plan on adding new zsh test cases and expanding the bash test cases (to test the behavior with 'shopt -u promptvars'). I'd like the zsh tests to cover the same stuff as the bash tests. These are the steps I am considering: 1. delete the last test case in t9903 ("prompt - zsh color pc mode") 2. add two new functions to t/lib-bash.sh: ps1_expansion_enable () { shopt -s promptvars; } ps1_expansion_disable () { shopt -u promptvars; } 3. loop over the relevant test cases twice: once after calling ps1_expansion_enable and once after calling ps1_expansion_disable (with appropriate adjustments to the expected output) 4. move the test cases in t9903 to a separate library file and source it from t9903-bash-prompt.sh 5. create two new files: * t/lib-zsh.sh (same as t/lib-bash.sh but tweaked for zsh) * t/t9904-zsh-prompt.sh (same as t/t9903-bash-prompt.sh but tweaked for zsh) Does this approach sound reasonable? contrib/completion/git-prompt.sh | 56 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------------ t/t9903-bash-prompt.sh | 6 ++--- 2 files changed, 42 insertions(+), 20 deletions(-) diff --git a/contrib/completion/git-prompt.sh b/contrib/completion/git-prompt.sh index 853425d..9d684b1 100644 --- a/contrib/completion/git-prompt.sh +++ b/contrib/completion/git-prompt.sh @@ -209,9 +209,7 @@ __git_ps1_show_upstream () if [[ -n "$count" && -n "$name" ]]; then __git_ps1_upstream_name=$(git rev-parse \ --abbrev-ref "$upstream" 2>/dev/null) - if [ $pcmode = yes ]; then - # see the comments around the - # __git_ps1_branch_name variable below + if [ $pcmode = yes ] && [ $ps1_expanded = yes ]; then p="$p \${__git_ps1_upstream_name}" else p="$p ${__git_ps1_upstream_name}" @@ -308,6 +306,43 @@ __git_ps1 () ;; esac + # ps1_expanded: This variable is set to 'yes' if the shell + # subjects the value of PS1 to parameter expansion: + # + # * bash does unless the promptvars option is disabled + # * zsh does not unless the PROMPT_SUBST option is set + # * POSIX shells always do + # + # If the shell would expand the contents of PS1 when drawing + # the prompt, a raw ref name must not be included in PS1. + # This protects the user from arbitrary code execution via + # specially crafted ref names.
