Subject: Fix overwriting of files when applying contextually independent diffs
X-Git-Tag: v1.5.1.2~10
X-Git-Url: http://git.tremily.us/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=0afa7644f2f3543a033d327468ab97d7581f9d13;p=git.git

Fix overwriting of files when applying contextually independent diffs

Noticed by applying two diffs of different contexts to the same file.

The check for existence of a file was wrong: the test assumed it was
a directory and reset the errno (twice: directly and by calling
lstat). So if an entry existed and was _not_ a directory no attempt
was made to rename into it, because the errno (expected by renaming
code) was already reset to 0. This resulted in error:

    fatal: unable to write file file mode 100644

For Linux, removing "errno = 0" is enough, as lstat wont modify errno
if it was successful. The behavior should not be depended upon,
though, so modify the "if" as well.

The test simulates this situation.
