Subject: [PATCH v3 10/12] read-cache: drop explicit `CLOSE_LOCK`-flag
Date: Fri, 6 Oct 2017 22:12:12 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <db718624ece17a7bed4c956d581dab83b579db0b.1507320376.git.martin.agren@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1507320376.git.martin.agren@gmail.com>
`write_locked_index()` takes two flags: `COMMIT_LOCK` and `CLOSE_LOCK`.
At most one is allowed. But it is also possible to use no flag, i.e.,
`0`. But when `write_locked_index()` calls `do_write_index()`, the
temporary file, a.k.a. the lockfile, will be closed. So passing `0` is
effectively the same as `CLOSE_LOCK`, which seems like a bug.
We might feel tempted to restructure the code in order to close the file
later, or conditionally. It also feels a bit unfortunate that we simply
"happen" to close the lock by way of an implementation detail of
lockfiles. But note that we need to close the temporary file before
`stat`-ing it, at least on Windows. See 9f41c7a6b (read-cache: close
index.lock in do_write_index, 2017-04-26).
Drop `CLOSE_LOCK` and make it explicit that `write_locked_index()`
always closes the lock. Whether it is also committed is governed by the
remaining flag, `COMMIT_LOCK`.
This means we neither have nor suggest that we have a mode to write the
index and leave the file open. Whatever extra contents we might
eventually want to write, we should probably write it from within
`write_locked_index()` itself anyway.

v3: Dropped the comment in `do_write_locked_index()` and documented how
`do_write_index()` handles the temporary file instead.
