Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] apply: set file mode when --reverse creates a deleted file
Date: Fri, 23 May 2025 13:21:54 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250523172154.93810-3-mark@chromium.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250523172154.93810-1-mark@chromium.org>
Commit 01aff0a (apply: correctly reverse patch's pre- and post-image
mode bits, 2023-12-26) revised reverse_patches() to maintain the desired
property that when only one of patch::old_mode and patch::new_mode is
set, the mode will be carried in old_mode. That property is generally
correct, with one notable exception: when creating a file, only new_mode
will be set. Since reversing a deletion results in a creation, new_mode
must be set in that case.
Omitting handling for this case means that reversing a patch that
removes an executable file will not result in the executable permission
being set on the re-created file. Existing test coverage for file modes
focuses only on mode changes of existing files.
Swap old_mode and new_mode in reverse_patches() for what's represented
in the patch as a file deletion, as it is transformed into a file
creation under reversal. This causes git apply --reverse to set the
executable permission properly when re-creating a deleted executable
file.
Add tests ensuring that git apply sets file modes correctly on file
creation, both in the forward and reverse directions.
