Ok, how about this, on top of the previous ones?Thanks!quoted
@@ -653,6 +663,8 @@ int main(int argc, char **argv) struct stat st; setup_git_directory(); + setup_ident(); + git_config(fetch_pack_config);Why do you need setup_ident()?Because presumably you would be updating the reflog that records who did the fetch? But then we should do the same ignore_missing_committer_name() we have in receive-pack to allow anonymous fetchers to fetch from outside world, I guess.
This turns out to be more serious than I expected. The code that uses committer_info() in reflog can barf and die. And I do not think calling ignore_missing_committer_name() upfront like recent receive-pack did in the aplication is a reasonable workaround. So I am thinking about doing something like the attached patch. What the patch does. - git_committer_info() takes one parameter. It used to be "if this is true, then die() if the name is not available due to bad GECOS, otherwise issue a warning once but leave the name empty". The reason was because we wanted to prevent bad commits from being made by git-commit-tree (and its callers). The value 0 is only used by "git var -l". Now it takes -1, 0 or 1. When set to -1, it does not complain but uses the pw->pw_name when name is not available. Existing 0 and 1 values mean the same thing as they used to mean before. 0 means issue warnings and leave it empty, 1 means barf and die. - ignore_missing_committer_name() and its existing caller (receive-pack, to set the reflog) have been removed. - git-format-patch, to come up with the phoney message ID when asked to thread, now passes -1 to git_committer_info(). This codepath uses only the e-mail part, ignoring the name. It used to barf and die. The other call in the same program when asked to add signed-off-by line based on committer identity still passes 1 to make sure it barfs instead of adding a bogus s-o-b line. - log_ref_write in refs.c, to come up with the name to record who initiated the ref update in the reflog, passes -1. It used to barf and die. The last change means that git-update-ref, git-branch, and commit walker backends can now be used in a repository with reflog by somebody who does not have the user identity required to make a commit. They all used to barf and die. I've run tests and all of them seem to pass, and also tried "git clone" as a user whose GECOS is empty -- git clone works again now (it was broken when reflog was enabled by default). But this definitely needs extra sets of eyeballs. ---
