Junio C Hamano eae69530ae tests: correct misuses of POSIXPERM POSIXPERM requires that a later call to stat(2) (hence "ls -l") faithfully reproduces what an earlier chmod(2) did. Some filesystems cannot satisify this. SANITY requires that a file or a directory is indeed accessible (or inaccessible) when its permission bits would say it ought to be accessible (or inaccessible). Running tests as root would lose this prerequisite for obvious reasons. Fix a few tests that misuse POSIXPERM. t0061-run-command.sh has two uses of POSIXPERM. - One checks that an attempt to execute a file that is marked as unexecutable results in a failure with EACCES; I do not think having root-ness or any other capability that busts the filesystem permission mode bits will make you run an unexecutable file, so this should be left as-is. The test does not have anything to do with SANITY. - The other one expects 'git nitfol' runs the alias when an alias.nitfol is defined and a directory on the PATH is marked as unreadable and unsearchable. I _think_ the test tries to reject the alternative expectation that we want to refuse to run the alias because it would break "no alias may mask a command" rule if a file 'git-nitfol' exists in the unreadable directory but we cannot even determine if that is the case. Under !SANITY that busts the permission bits, this test no longer checks that, so it must be protected with SANITY. t1509-root-worktree.sh expects to be run on a / that is writable by the user and sees if Git behaves "sensibly" when /.git is the repository to govern a worktree that is the whole filesystem, and also if Git behaves "sensibly" when / itself is a bare repository with refs, objects, and friends (I find the definition of "behaves sensibly" under these conditions hard to fathom, but it is a different matter). The implementation of the test is very much problematic. - It requires POSIXPERM, but it does not do chmod or checks modes in any way. - It runs "rm /*" and "rm -fr /refs /objects ..." in one of the tests, and also does "cd / && git init --bare". If done on a live system that takes advantages of the "feature" being tested, these obviously will clobber the system. But there is no guard against such a breakage. - It uses "test $UID = 0" to see rootness, which now should be spelled "! test_have_prereq NOT_ROOT" Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>		2015-01-16 10:36:15 -08:00

	Git - the stupid content tracker

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

"git" can mean anything, 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

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.

See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see
Documentation/everyday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and
Documentation/git-commandname.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).

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

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.
