Carlos Martín Nieto a145f2b6 2018-05-22T14:16:45 checkout: add a failing test for refusing a symlinked .gitmodules We want to reject these as they cause compatibility issues and can lead to git writing to files outside of the repository.
Edward Thomson 232bc895 2015-01-14T13:15:34 checkout tests: nasty symlinks Symbolic links that abuse case insensitivity to write into .git.
Edward Thomson 11d67b75 2014-12-10T19:12:16 checkout: disallow bad paths on HFS HFS filesystems ignore some characters like U+200C. When these characters are included in a path, they will be ignored for the purposes of comparison with other paths. Thus, if you have a ".git" folder, a folder of ".git<U+200C>" will also match. Protect our ".git" folder by ensuring that ".git<U+200C>" and friends do not match it.
Edward Thomson a64119e3 2014-11-25T18:13:00 checkout: disallow bad paths on win32 Disallow: 1. paths with trailing dot 2. paths with trailing space 3. paths with trailing colon 4. paths that are 8.3 short names of .git folders ("GIT~1") 5. paths that are reserved path names (COM1, LPT1, etc). 6. paths with reserved DOS characters (colons, asterisks, etc) These paths would (without \\?\ syntax) be elided to other paths - for example, ".git." would be written as ".git". As a result, writing these paths literally (using \\?\ syntax) makes them hard to operate with from the shell, Windows Explorer or other tools. Disallow these.
