Johannes Sixt ffd04e92e2 diff: don't attempt to strip prefix from absolute Windows paths git diff can be invoked with absolute paths. Typically, this triggers the --no-index case. Then the absolute paths remain in the file names that are printed in the output. There is one peculiarity, though: When the command is invoked from a a sub-directory in a repository, then it is attempted to strip the sub-directory from the beginning of relative paths. Yet, to detect a relative path the code just checks for an initial forward slash. This mistakes a Windows style path like "D:/base" as a relative path and the output looks like this, for example: D:\dir\test\one>git -P diff --numstat D:\dir\base D:\dir\diff 1 1 ir/{base => diff}/1.txt where the correct output should be D:\dir\test\one>git -P diff --numstat D:\dir\base D:\dir\diff 1 1 D:/dir/{base => diff}/1.txt If the sub-directory where 'git diff' is invoked is sufficiently deep that the prefix becomes longer than the path to be printed, then the subsequent code accesses the path out of bounds. Use is_absolute_path() to detect Windows style absolute paths. One might wonder whether the check for a directory separator that is visible in the patch context should be changed from == '/' to is_dir_sep() or not. It turns out not to be necessary. That code only ever investigates paths that have undergone pathspec normalization, after which there are only forward slashes even on Windows.

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.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 https://public-inbox.org/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
