[PATCH 03/10] get_sha1: propagate flags to child functions

From
Jeff King <peff@peff.net>
Date
Sep 26, 2016, 11:59 UTC
Message-ID
<20160926115940.yyedwgz4duxerm4i@sigill.intra.peff.net>
In-Reply-To
<20160926115720.p2yb22lcq37gboon@sigill.intra.peff.net>

The get_sha1() function is actually implementation by many sub-functions, but we do not always pass our flags around to all of those functions. As a result, we may forget that our caller asked us to resolve with GET_SHA1_QUIETLY and output messages. The two triggerable cases are:

  1. Resolving treeish:path will resolve the "treeish"
     portion using GET_SHA1_TREEISH, dropping all other
     flags.
  2. The peel_onion() function did not take flags at all
     but recurses to get_sha1_1(), which does.

The solution for both is to bitwise-OR their new flags with the existing ones (after dropping any mutually exclusive disambiguation flags).

This bug can trigger with "git rev-parse --quiet", which asks for quiet resolution. But it can also happen in a more vanilla code path when we do a follow-up ONLY_TO_DIE invocation of get_sha1(), and that's what the tests check.
