Junio C Hamano 41429cb4e4 t6011: fix misconversion from perl to sed
No, this is not about a quiz on regexp compatibility between Perl
and sed.

Back when cdbdc6bf (t: refactor tests depending on Perl substitution
operator, 2025-04-03) rewrote many uses of perl with sed, the general
pattern of the original scripts were

    chmod +w some_read_only_file &&
    perl -p -e "regexp to munge" some_read_only_file >some_tmp &&
    mv some_tmp some_read_only_file

persumably because the author knew that replacing some_read_only_file
with "mv" at the last step would not work without "mv -f" in some
environments (GNU seems to succeed without giving any prompt when
not running interactively, which is what happens when running t/
scripts).  Replacing perl with sed would be fine as long as sed with
updated regexp does the equivalent munging.

But one place used to use a different construct in the original:

    perl -i.bak -p -e "regexp to munge" some_read_only_file

With _no_ temporary file or "mv", "perl -i" allows you to replace a
read-only file in place.

When we replaced the use of "perl" with "sed" in the said commit,
however, because "sed -i" is not portable, we rewrote that in-place
replacement to

    sed "regexp to munge" some_read_only_file >some_tmp &&
    mv some_tmp some_read_only_file

Again, unfortunately that does not work in some environment, without
"mv -f".

We could run "mv -f" here, but we would then need to remove "chmod
+w" and have them use "mv -f" instead at all places that were
touched cdbdc6bf (t: refactor tests depending on Perl substitution
operator, 2025-04-03) to be consistent (and more concise).

For now, let's make it consistent in the other direction by mimick
the other places that made the target read-write before moving.

Speaking of portability, the outcome of using "sed" on non-text
files is unspecified, so the entire exercise of cdbdc6bf may have
needed to be reverted if people still used ancient version of
"standard compliant" sed that barfs on non-text files, but these
days we may be able to get away with "BSDs and GNU seem OK with it"
;-)  But one fix at a time.

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 https://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools.

See Documentation/gittutorial.adoc to get started, then see Documentation/giteveryday.adoc for a useful minimum set of commands, and Documentation/git-<commandname>.adoc 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.adoc (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 and Documentation/CodingGuidelines).

Those wishing to help with error message, usage and informational message string translations (localization l10) should see po/README.md (a po file is a Portable Object file that holds the translations).

To subscribe to the list, send an email to git+subscribe@vger.kernel.org (see https://subspace.kernel.org/subscribing.html for details). The mailing list archives are available at https://lore.kernel.org/git/, https://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.

Issues which are security relevant should be disclosed privately to the Git Security mailing list git-security@googlegroups.com.

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
