Ramsay Jones 59da9f292a t0610-reftable-basics: mitigate a flaky test on cygwin Test #29 ('ref transaction: corrupted tables cause failure') started to fail intermittently for me (from v2.52.0-rc0) when running the testsuite with '-j8'. (Also, having moved to a new laptop and windows 11, rather than windows 10). If the test is run by hand, or without any parallelism, then it passes without issue. When the test fails (e.g. 1 out of 32 parallel runs) the cause is due to a permission error while corrupting a table file: ./test-lib.sh: line 1010: .git/reftable/0x000000000001-0x000000000002-d89bb8ee.ref: Permission denied This corruption is done in a shell loop, directly after a 'test_commit', which uses an ': >"$f"' expression to truncate the file. Adding a sleep of one second after the 'test_commit' and before the shell loop fixes the test (it is not clear why). Replacing the redirection shell expression with a 'test-tool truncate "$f" 0' invocation also provides a fix, which could simply be another way to change the timing sufficiently to win the race. During a debug session, I tried looking at the strace output for the shell redirection: $ rm /tmp/hello; echo hello >/tmp/hello; ls -l /tmp/hello -rw-r--r-- 1 ramsay None 6 Nov 10 17:25 /tmp/hello $ $ strace -o zzz bash -c ': >/tmp/hello' $ Similarly, for the test-tool solution: $ strace -o xxx ./t/helper/test-tool truncate /tmp/hello 0 $ When comparing the output, the differences seemed to be what you would expect and, if anything, the shell redirect probably would have taken longer than the test-tool solution (many fcntl() calls to dup the stdout to the <fd>). The call to the win32 api NtCreateFile() was identical, apart from the first (FileHandle) parameter, of course. In order to fix this flaky test on cygwin, despite not knowing why it works, replace the shell redirection with the above 'test-tool truncate' invocation.

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
