I don't think Perl has *a* false value, but rather has multiple values
that are treated as false, such as undef, zero, and the empty string.
Personally, I find 0 clearer than the empty string, but that's
probably just my C bias sneaking in.
All of the boolean feature values use 0 or 1, so if this should be
changed, I think it should probably be done as a separate patch.

Yes it definitely does have a false value, PL_sv_no, and a true value,
PL_sv_yes (although it is much less important). It is these values
which are copied to signify true and false in the cases where the
internals need to, such as for boolean operators that must return
false, and things like negation and (in)equality checks.
It is a so called "dual var" SvPVNV, with 0 in the NV (numeric) slot
and the empty string in the PV (string) slot.
You can see one example of its behaviour in my previous mail, and can
see it further here:
$ perl -MDevel::Peek -e'print Dump(shift @ARGV eq "true")'
SV = PVNV(0x952eb10) at 0x952b6f0
REFCNT = 2147483647
FLAGS = (IOK,NOK,POK,READONLY,pIOK,pNOK,pPOK)
IV = 0
NV = 0
PV = 0x952eae8 ""\0
CUR = 0
LEN = 4
Compare that to:
perl -MDevel::Peek -e'print Dump(shift @ARGV eq "true" ? 1 : 0)'
SV = IV(0x94d8398) at 0x94bd678
REFCNT = 1
FLAGS = (PADBUSY,PADTMP,IOK,READONLY,pIOK)
IV = 0

As you think is best. It is after all a nit, and probably one that is
harmless. But I've been bitten by people not using the languages
native booleans before, and well, once bitten twice shy.

Wow, I had no idea about this. Thanks for the information.
It seems like using these values would require obfuscating the code,
though. :( They only seem to be exposed directly via XS.

Depend how you look at it. You have access to them via the negation
and inequality operators. In a way you can think of the 'not' (or !)
operator as being the "inverted boolean constructor". So for instance
the kind of surprising
my $bool= !!$val;
can be used to get a copy of the appropriate PL_sv_yes/no. But the
need to do is rare. Luckily. :-)
But yeah, they are not exposed directly at the perl level. There is no
keyword to use to generate them like there is for undef/PL_sv_undef,
although I guess it would be fairly easy to expose them in a similar
fashion via Scalar::Util.

* gitweb config with some public, some basic-authenticated repos
From: Matt McCutchen @ 2009-01-03 18:29 UTC (permalink / raw)
To: Jakub Narebski; +Cc: git
In-Reply-To: <200901022033.18041.jnareb@gmail.com>
This thread's topic has moved from a proposed patch to how I should
configure my gitweb, so I'm updating the subject. As a review: I have
several public repos and several basic-authentication realms, each of
which requires a single user and contains a single repo (some realms
might contain multiple repos in the future). Each request has its
authorization checked by the Web server before it reaches gitweb, so my
main concern here is to avoid publicly disclosing the private repos'
paths, authors, and descriptions in the main project list.

I'm quite sure that the code is mod_perl specific. CGI scripts do get
some information from Apache via the environment, but interaction as
rich as executing Apache subrequests is only possible when the code is
running inside Apache via mod_perl. In fact, the Apache2::SubRequest
and Apache2::RequestUtil modules are part of mod_perl. To make sure I'm
not missing something, I tested the code on an Apache with mod_perl
enabled but gitweb executing as a CGI, and gitweb failed with the
following message:
Can't locate object method "request" via package
"Apache2::RequestUtil" at gitweb_config.perl line 60.
So this approach won't work for me.
But even ignoring this problem, I'm now thinking that trying to show
repos from *multiple authentication realms* in the main list according
to the user's credentials was a foolish idea. I don't want to ask
anonymous visitors to my main list for multiple logins they probably
don't have, yet I think it would be poor practice from a predictability
standpoint for the list to behave differently if the user volunteers
login information that hasn't been requested.
Instead, I will use a separate project list file for public repositories
and for each realm, and no export_auth_hook. This is simple and
requires no change to gitweb; my rewrite rule just has to tell my
gitweb_config via an environment variable which list to use. Comments
on this solution?
(Note: I'm no longer advocating the hidden-repos feature at this time,
but I think I will still advocate the forks-and-strict-export bug fix
now that I have it written.)

With Apache, you can add the following to your httpd.conf file, or to an
.htaccess file within your document root:
<DirectoryMatch "^\.git">

Deny from all
</DirectoryMatch>
<FilesMatch "^\.gitignore">

Stating "we should have done this from day one" is one thing (even though
"because some standard says so" is not particularly a good justification
without "and matches the way people use CVS in the real world in practice"
appended to it).
"We should suddenly change the behaviour" is quite a different thing and
it depends on what follows that sentence if the change is justifiable. We
do not want to hear "...; screw the existing repositories if they have
nonconforming names.". It is Ok if it is "...; existing repositories will
be affected, but the damage is limited to very minor set of operations,
namely X, Y and Z".
In other words, is there any backward compatibility issue when a
repository that has served existing CVS users and checkouts with older
version switches to the patched one? If there is one, is that grave
enough that we should care?

If we have a single hook, git just runs a script. But multiple scripts
can be run in different orders. We can assume that git should run them
in lexicographical order, but sometimes it's not the best order can be
used.
However, prefixes can be used to force a particular lexicographical
order:
.git/hooks/pre-commit/01-hook2.sh
.git/hooks/pre-commit/02-topGitcheck.sh
.git/hooks/pre-commit/03-hook1.sh
Is there a better way to choose the scripts order?

This restriction is too strict. Wouldn't any path not containing ".." be valid? In particular this did not work with my "EGIT.contrib" repo. I
have a lot of repos with names llike "name.purpose". Just adding
'.' to the character set isn't really enough.

Forget it.. It's a gitlink, which jgit doesn't support yet.

Lack of support of submodules, I would guess.

Thanks, that is better.
How about an option to git-symbolic-ref that gets rid of the

Make an alias?
git config alias.cb '!sh -c "git symbolic-ref HEAD|sed s,refs/heads/,,"'
$ git cb
master
(Where cb can stand for 'current branch', for example.)

Thanks for the suggestion. I don't have any problems making
aliases or using git-branch for interactive output; it's not an
issue of typing less.
I guess the broader point is that people use these "porcelain"
commands in scripts and parse their output even when they
shouldn't, and it's better to take action to prevent that. This
reminds me of the issue of debugfs supposedly not being an ABI but
people rely on anyway since it's stable enough - people are
starting to rely on 'git branch' output just to print the current
branch name. Better to create or at least publicly point out a
good alternative to nip this in the bud.
I suppose "user education" in the form of a big warning in the
git-branch man page would also help. How do you even tell in the
man page whether a command is porcelain or not? Still, I think
something like this is worth making slightly easier. Another
minor argument for something like git branch --print-name is that
it's annoying to check the exit code inside a pipeline.
For example: Google for how to add the name of the git branch to
the bash prompt and you'll find countless examples of people using
git-branch. And they're all different, so people aren't just
blindly copying one guy; here is a small sample:
export PS1='...`git branch 2> /dev/null | grep -e ^* | sed
-E s/^\\\\\*\ \(.+\)$/\(\\\\\1\)\
$(git branch &>/dev/null; if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then echo "
($(git branch | grep '^*' |sed s/\*\ //))"; fi)
`ruby -e \"print (%x{git branch 2>
/dev/null}.grep(/^\*/).first || '').gsub(/^\* (.+)$/, '(\1)
')\"\`
parse_git_branch() {
git branch 2> /dev/null | sed -e '/^[^*]/d' -e 's/* \(.*\)/(\1)/'
}
`git branch 2>/dev/null|cut -f2 -d\* -s`
git branch --no-color 2> /dev/null | sed -e '/^[^*]/d' -e 's/* \(.*\)/(\1)/'
git_branch=`git branch 2>/dev/null | grep -e '^*' | sed -E 's/^\* (.+)$/(\1) /'`
There were a few using git-symbolic-ref but most used git-branch.

That is a good point about user education, and is a demonstration why a
new option to cover a very narrow-special case to symbolic-ref will not
help the situation. People will add their own embellishments around the
name of the branch anyway, and the most generic symbolic-ref output is
just as useful as a special case option to show without refs/heads/.
What you quoted are all inferior implementations of showing the name of
the current branch in the bash prompt. The most correct way (in the sense
that it won't be broken in future git) is always found in the bash
completion script in contrib/completion/git-completion.bash and it reads:
PS1='[\u@\h \W$(__git_ps1 " (%s)")]\$ '
You can of course change this to suit your taste. For example, here is a
variant I personally use:
PS1=': \h \W$(__git_ps1 "/%s"); '
The point is that __git_ps1 shell function is defined to be used for this
exact purpose and is documented in the completion script.
Besides showing the current branch, it knows how to interpret the various
state clues git operations leave in the repository and the work tree, and
reminds them what you are in the middle of (e.g. applying patch series
using "git am", rebasing interactively, resolving conflicts after a merge
did not autoresolve, etc.), and also knows how to show the detached HEAD.

I'd rather want to keep our scripts free of deep Perl magic. Even if
there are SVs that are interpreted as false other than 0, that does not
necessarily mean you have to fear that 0 can sometimes evaluate to true.
As long as you refrain from doing something crazy like "0 but true",
people who are not (and/or are not inclined to become) familiar with the
gory innards of Perl can rely on 0 being false and 1 being true when
calling feature_something subs, no?

In any case, the original test is simply bogus. 'test -n "$foo"' is to
see if $foo is an empty string, and giving a constant /bin/start always
yields true.
As an old timer, I tend to prefer "test -f" in this context, as anybody
sane can expect that the directory /bin will contain executables and
nothing else. Another reason is purely stylistic. Historically "-f" has
been much more portable than "-x" (which came from SVID), even though it
wouldn't make much difference in practice in the real world these days.
