Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] object-name: fix resolution of object names containing curly braces
Date: Sat, 04 Jan 2025 00:17:49 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <13f68bebe90549ba19452f12abb6fea41c2517fb.1735949870.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <pull.1844.v2.git.1735949870.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>

From: Elijah Newren <newren@gmail•com>

Given a branch name of 'foo{bar', commands like

    git cat-file -p foo{bar:README.md

should succeed (assuming that branch had a README.md file, of course).
However, the change in cce91a2caef9 (Change 'master@noon' syntax to
'master@{noon}'., 2006-05-19) presumed that curly braces would always
come after an '@' or '^' and be paired, causing e.g. 'foo{bar:README.md'
to entirely miss the ':' and assume there's no object being referenced.
In short, git would report:

    fatal: Not a valid object name foo{bar:README.md

Change the parsing to only make the assumption of paired curly braces
immediately after either a '@' or '^' character appears.

Add tests for this, as well as for a few other test cases that initial
versions of this patch broke:
  * 'foo@@{...}'
  * 'foo^{/${SEARCH_TEXT_WITH_COLON}}:${PATH}'
