This confuses the inspect-wrapper script which assumes that RPM_BUILD_DIR points to _builddir. Detect this case and make RPM_BUILD_DIR point to _builddir again so that the rest of the code keeps working. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare

Instead, they use templates, which they preprocess before passing them to rpmbuild. In order to be able to use "quilt setup" on these spec files, we need to perform the same kind of preprocessing. For this purpose, introduce a new option to the setup command, --spec-filter. This lets the user provide a customer filtering script to preprocess their spec file before rpmbuild gets called on it.

patches: Performance boost on large series

commit 14ad52f97d92e67bd2c10993a99457aebb4bcab1 parent 3ba7a3085d270f6b3c79b7278abdacc44ad69015 Author: Jean Delvare Date: Tue, 13 Aug 2024 14:57:03 +0200 patches: Performance boost on large series On large series, the patches command is horribly slow. This is caused by a performance issue in bash 4.4 and older when a function with a lot of positional parameters calls another function. This can be worked around by expanding the list of patches inside the functions instead of passing them as parameters. In my tests, this speeds up the command by a factor 1000 (from over 34 minutes to 2 seconds on a fully applied 48000 patch series). Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare

series: Remove the "fast" path

2024-07-16T07:08:12Z

commit 2eae24970124845194a54e40a979a12a2b29527a parent 8573bc15b647e7cb6c1f81c9df48191d4d8b8c96 Author: Jean Delvare Date: Tue, 16 Jul 2024 09:08:12 +0200 series: Remove the "fast" path Originally, "series" with no options was implemented by calling cat_series directly, while options required calling cat_patches which was very slow on large series. Having a fast path made complete sense back then. However, since commit 117e66f40d01 ("Series command: add missing paths to patches if $QUILT_PATCHES_PREFIX is set"), the fast path is also calling cat_patches, so it is no longer fast. Therefore it no longer makes sense to have distinct code paths and we can simplify the code with no performance penalty. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare

Problem is, this option isn't actually supported in the series file. Only options which should be passed to the patch command are supported. So don't let the user pass option -p ab when creating a patch. This should prevent some confusion as reported here: https://savannah.nongnu.org/patch/index.php?10094 Fixes: 66f9da46333e ("new command: Add -p ... option (equivalent to diff -p ...)")

There are cases where they indeed need to be quoted (typically when used in a sed s/// command) but most of the time they do not, and this results in the following warning: grep: warning: stray \ before / So rename quote_bre() to quote_sed_re(), and introduce quote_grep_re() which does not quote "/".

Man page: eliminate or replace blank lines

2022-08-03T19:23:48Z

commit 4420b2abf2162dd347716bbe58ac59383b539df9 parent 2f0e915900c4e394c875128c01837c0b908f9abd Author: G. Branden Robinson Date: Wed, 3 Aug 2022 21:23:48 +0200 Man page: eliminate or replace blank lines Blank lines are bad roff style. Per CSTR #54, blank lines are the equivalent of ".sp 1", but in GNU roff this can be overridden with a blank line macro (".blm"), and all macro packages for text formatting (mm, ms, me, man, etc.) have macros for paragraph separation, and the inter-paragraph spacing is usually different from ".sp 1" for typesetter output (this can be seen in PostScript and PDF output). Explicit spacing is also unnecessary immediately adjacent to section headings. See section 5.3 of CSTR #54, "Troff User's Manual", Ossanna & Kernighan . [JD: Added an empty request (.) before each section to preserve the readability of the input.]

patchfns: Compatibility fix for BSD awk

Without this fix, patch_header() fails to find the beginning of the changes and treats the whole patch as a header, subsequently causing "quilt refresh" to append the refreshed patch after the original one instead of replacing it.

Reuse the shell

commit 413e288800710af2c0d304f496e77bc62a728f66 parent 62d53007cc96d488f1b108118bbb6568f93041e8 Author: Jean Delvare Date: Fri, 3 Sep 2021 17:02:00 +0200 Reuse the shell One side effect of commit ca85fbd82022 ("Move the code which adds the default parameters from quiltrc") is that we now source the quiltrc configuration file twice. While parsing this file shouldn't take overly long, this still feels conceptually wrong. This can be avoided by reusing the same shell for the quilt command as we used for the quilt "launcher" itself, instead of starting a new instance of bash for it. As a nice side bonus, this makes quilt about 2% faster (measured on the test suite). Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare

import: Fix option -P

Using this option now fails with the following error message: /usr/share/quilt/import: line 168: [: missing `]' This is caused by a missing space before the closing square bracket, which prevents bash from parsing the line. Fix that, and add a test case to cover this code path, so that no such bug can creep in in the future.

Delay sourcing patchfns until options have been processed

2021-06-10T15:14:19Z

commit c539338458e4aa8b2d6c4c87b9192def3800d0b5 parent ca85fbd8202219737e14aaaff17d1c479536831f Author: Jean Delvare Date: Thu, 10 Jun 2021 17:14:19 +0200 Delay sourcing patchfns until options have been processed Commit 8b39a960afcf ("Consistently complain early if no series file is found") unexpectedly broke commands like "quilt add -h", because the check for a series file happens before the command line options are processed. This, in turn, breaks the generation of the quilt manual page, which relies on the output of each command when called with option -h. Reorder the code so that options are always processed first, and then patchfns is sourced. That way, option "-h" will work again even if not in a quilt working tree.

Move the code which adds the default parameters from quiltrc

This is needed because the parsing of command line options needs to happen before we source patchfns, which is obviously not possible if some of the options are being set by patchfns itself.

backup-files: Restore symbolic links

But now that git has introduced an extended syntax which allows manipulating symbolic links in patch files, "quilt push" may create or delete symbolic links, which means that backup-files must support such operations too. Also extend the backup-files test case to cover these operations. This fixes bug #59479: https://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/index.php?59479 Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare
