Junio C Hamano 10f5c52656 submodule: avoid auto-discovery in prepare_submodule_repo_env() The function is used to set up the environment variable used in a subprocess we spawn in a submodule directory. The callers set up a child_process structure, find the working tree path of one submodule and set .dir field to it, and then use start_command() API to spawn the subprocess like "status", "fetch", etc. When this happens, we expect that the ".git" (either a directory or a gitfile that points at the real location) in the current working directory of the subprocess MUST be the repository for the submodule. If this ".git" thing is a corrupt repository, however, because prepare_submodule_repo_env() unsets GIT_DIR and GIT_WORK_TREE, the subprocess will see ".git", thinks it is not a repository, and attempt to find one by going up, likely to end up in finding the repository of the superproject. In some codepaths, this will cause a command run with the "--recurse-submodules" option to recurse forever. By exporting GIT_DIR=.git, disable the auto-discovery logic in the subprocess, which would instead stop it and report an error. The test illustrates existing problems in a few callsites of this function. Without this fix, "git fetch --recurse-submodules", "git status" and "git diff" keep recursing forever.

Git - fast, scalable, distributed revision control system

Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals.

Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses, compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.

Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.

Many Git online resources are accessible from http://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools.

See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see Documentation/giteveryday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and Documentation/git-.txt for documentation of each command. If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be read with man gittutorial or git help tutorial, and the documentation of each command with man git-<commandname> or git help <commandname>.

CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt (man gitcvs-migration or git help cvs-migration if git is installed).

The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission). To subscribe to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at http://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/, http://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.

The maintainer frequently sends the "What's cooking" reports that list the current status of various development topics to the mailing list. The discussion following them give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.

The name "git" was given by Linus Torvalds when he wrote the very first version. He described the tool as "the stupid content tracker" and the name as (depending on your mood):

random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not actually used by any common UNIX command. The fact that it is a mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant.
stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the dictionary of slang.
"global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
"goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks
