Noam Postavsky	7f4d4746c1	credential-cache: new option to ignore sighup Introduce new option "credentialCache.ignoreSIGHUP" which stops git-credential-cache--daemon from quitting on SIGHUP. This is useful when "git push" is started from Emacs, because all child processes (including the daemon) will receive a SIGHUP when "git push" exits.

Tobias Klauser	e17fd18ae2	credential-cache--daemon: remove unused #include "sigchain.h" After switching to use the tempfile module in commit `9e903316` (credential-cache--daemon: use tempfile module), no declarations from sigchain.h are used in credential-cache--daemon.c anymore. Thus, remove the #include. Signed-off-by: Tobias Klauser <tklauser@distanz.ch> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	10 years ago

Michael Haggerty	18a3de4214	credential-cache--daemon: delete socket from main() main() is responsible for cleaning up the socket in the case of errors, so it is reasonable to also make it responsible for cleaning it up when there are no errors. This change also makes the next step easier. Signed-off-by: Michael Haggerty <mhagger@alum.mit.edu> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	10 years ago
Jeff King	f5e3c0b9d0	credential-cache: close stderr in daemon process If the stderr of "git credential-cache" is redirected to a pipe, the reader on the other end of a pipe may be surprised that the pipe remains open long after the process exits. This happens because we may auto-spawn a daemon which is long-lived, and which keeps stderr open. We can solve this by redirecting the daemon's stderr to /dev/null once we are ready to go into our event loop. We would not want to do so before then, because we may want to report errors about the setup (e.g., failure to establish the listening socket). This does mean that we will not report errors we encounter for specific clients. That's acceptable, as such errors should be rare (e.g., clients sending buggy requests). However, we also provide an escape hatch: if you want to see these later messages, you can provide the "--debug" option to keep stderr open.

Jeff King	cf4fff579e	refactor skip_prefix to return a boolean The skip_prefix() function returns a pointer to the content past the prefix, or NULL if the prefix was not found. While this is nice and simple, in practice it makes it hard to use for two reasons: 1. When you want to conditionally skip or keep the string as-is, you have to introduce a temporary variable. For example: tmp = skip_prefix(buf, "foo"); if (tmp) buf = tmp; 2. It is verbose to check the outcome in a conditional, as you need extra parentheses to silence compiler warnings. For example: if ((cp = skip_prefix(buf, "foo")) /* do something with cp */ Both of these make it harder to use for long if-chains, and we tend to use starts_with() instead. However, the first line of "do something" is often to then skip forward in buf past the prefix, either using a magic constant or with an extra strlen(3) (which is generally computed at compile time, but means we are repeating ourselves). This patch refactors skip_prefix() to return a simple boolean, and to provide the pointer value as an out-parameter. If the prefix is not found, the out-parameter is untouched. This lets you write: if (skip_prefix(arg, "foo ", &arg)) do_foo(arg); else if (skip_prefix(arg, "bar ", &arg)) do_bar(arg); Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	11 years ago
Jeff King	e2770979fe	credentials: add "cache" helper If you access repositories over smart-http using http authentication, then it can be annoying to have git ask you for your password repeatedly. We cache credentials in memory, of course, but git is composed of many small programs. Having to input your password for each one can be frustrating. This patch introduces a credential helper that will cache passwords in memory for a short period of time.
