Commit 3d6de4177489a5d450f35e92288512be85492678 (#3998) made cargo
ignore Cargo.toml files that are invalid TOML in a git source.
This change further ignores Cargo.toml files that are valid TOML but
cannot really be loaded.
This is potentially an alternative fix for #6822.
`cargo vendor`: Don't delete hidden top-level files.
`cargo vendor` (without `--no-delete`) will delete all files in the `vendor/` directory when it starts. This changes it so that it will skip any entries starting with a dot. This allows one to track the vendor directory with a source control system like git.
Closes#7109
(Note: two commits, one is a test change.)
This commit disables usage of git templates whenever Cargo manages
repositories in its internal git database. Templates don't want to be
used at all in these situations and have been known to cause usability
bugs.
Closes#6240
This change ensures cargo will output file paths in the expected format
(C:\foo\... on Windows, /foo/... elsewhere). Previously it would output
file:// URLs instead.
To support this change, additional changes were made to the test suite
string processing such that [ROOT] is now replaced with the appropriate
file path root for the platform.
The CWD template was also updated to use [CWD] like other replacement
templates and to do the replacement on the expected value rather than
the actual value to avoid replacing things we don't expect with CWD.
Currently Cargo always uses `libgit2` to perform all fetches of git
repositories, but sometimes this is not sufficient. The `libgit2` library
doesn't support all authentication schemes that `git` does and it isn't always
quite at feature parity with `git` itself, especially in terms of network
configuration.
This commit adds a configuration option to Cargo for fetching git repositories
with the `git` CLI tool rather than the internal `libgit2`. While this exposes
us to changes over time in the `git` CLI it's hopefully a very targeted use case
that doesn't change much. The internal `libgit2` library should be sufficient
for all other forms of git repository management. (and using `git` for only
fetches shouldn't slow us down much)
The new configuration option in `.cargo/config` is:
[net]
git-fetch-with-cli = true
which can also be specified with `CARGO_NET_GIT_FETCH_WITH_CLI=true` via an
environment variable.
Closes#5903
