The old (new) behaviour was that it only shows trees if the object is specified exactly, and recursive is not set. That makes sense, because there is obviously nothing else it can show for that case. However, with the new "-t" option, it will show the tree even with "-r", as it traverses down into it. NOTE! This also means that it will show all trees leading up to that tree. For example, if you do a git-ls-tree -t HEAD -- drivers/char/this/file/does/not/exist it will show the trees that lead up to the files that do not exist: [torvalds@g5 linux]$ git-ls-tree -t HEAD -- drivers/char/this/file/does/not/exist 040000 tree 9cb687b77dcd64bf82e9a73214db467c964c1266 drivers 040000 tree 298e2fadf0ff3867d1ef49936fd2c7bf6ce1eb66 drivers/char [torvalds@g5 linux]$ and note how this is true even though I didn't specify "-r": the fact that I supplied a pathspec automatically implies "enough recursion" for that particular pathspec. I think the code is cleaner and easier to understand too: the patch looks bigger, but it's really just splitting up the "should we recurse into this tree" into a function of its own. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org> ---- This obviously means that to fix merge-recursive, we should add that "-t" flag to it, but then hopefully everything should be ok? Do you have a test-case, and perhaps something we could add to "make test". Talking about "make test", this doesn't break any (since it doesn't change behaviour without the "-t" flag), but maybe it should add some. But I'm lazy. On Thu, 1 Dec 2005, Fredrik Kuivinen wrote:
It turns out that this change breaks the directory/file conflict handling in git-merge-recursive. Right now merge-recursive uses git-ls-tree -r -z <tree SHA1> to get a listing of every blob object (which corresponds to files) and every tree object (which corresponds to directories) in the tree designated by the SHA1.
