In t7450 we check that both verify_path() and fsck catch malformed
.gitmodules entries in trees. However, we don't check that we catch
filesystem-equivalent forms of these (e.g., ".GITMOD~1" on Windows).
Our name-matching functions are exercised well in t0060, but there's
nothing to test that we correctly call the matching functions from the
actual fsck and verify_path() code.
So instead of testing just .gitmodules, let's repeat our tests for a few
basic cases. We don't need to be exhaustive here (t0060 handles that),
but just make sure we hit one name of each type.
Besides pushing the tests into a function that takes the path as a
parameter, we'll need to do a few things:
- adjust the directory name to accommodate the tests running multiple
times
- set core.protecthfs for index checks. Fsck always protects all types
by default, but we want to be able to exercise the HFS routines on
every system. Note that core.protectntfs is already the default
these days, but it doesn't hurt to explicitly label our need for it.
- we'll also take the filename ("gitmodules") as a parameter. All
calls use the same name for now, but a future patch will extend this
to handle other .gitfoo files. Note that our fake-content symlink
destination is somewhat .gitmodules specific. But it isn't necessary
for other files (which don't do a content check). And it happens to
be a valid attribute and ignore file anyway.

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-<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).
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://lore.kernel.org/git/, http://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
