Allow at `install` (or `install --only-dependencies`) time to specify
that test dependencies should be installed. This will allow simplifying
code in `brew test-bot`.
This could also be made an environment variable if desired by
maintainers.
If the underneath file system is a Network File System,
`brew cleanup` will fail to remove the lock files with following error
message:
Error: Bad file descriptor @ rb_file_flock - /path/to/the/lock_file
This commit fixes such issue and adds the corresponding test case.
This commit improves Homebrew’s extension detector in `cask/lib/hbc/download_strategy.rb` a bit
so that it won’t cross individual URL query param boundaries any
longer:
```
def ext
Pathname.new(@url).extname[/[^?&]+/]
end
```
Sometimes, `brew cask fetch`/`install` fails with an error message
similar to this:
```

```
To reproduce the issue, check out this branch and run the
`cask/download_strategy` test suite:
```
brew tests --only=cask/download_strategy
```
Or take a real-life example, which would be a Cask whose URL has
**1.** no `.` character anywhere in the URL path itself (outside of
the domain name), **and 2.** at least one query parameter with a `.`
character in it; **and 3.** other query parameters following that
with a combined length of more than 255 characters.
This combination may be uncommon but it exists, especially in
[URLs that change on every visit](1002d41242/doc/cask_language_reference/stanzas/url.md (urls-that-change-on-every-visit)),
for example
[`steamed-hams`](9d7df499cd/Casks/steamed-hams.rb)
from my `claui/cask-games` tap:
$ brew tap claui/cask-games
$ brew cask fetch steamed-hams
In a nutshell, **URL query strings sometimes look like a very long
file extension to Homebrew,** which it then proceeds to use as a file
name.
In `CurlDownloadStrategy`, Homebrew seems to apply a heuristic to the
cask URL in order to figure out a possibly meaningful file extension.
Sometimes this heuristic produces immensely long file extensions,
especially when there’s a query parameter with a `.` character in it
but not in the URL path itself (outside of the domain name).
Homebrew then believes that everything after the `.` is a file
extension. In one of the later steps, it tries to create a lock file
containing that extension, which fails because HFS+ cannot handle
files whose base file name has more than 255 characters.
One solution would be to improve Homebrew’s extension detector a bit
so that it won’t cross individual URL query param boundaries any
longer. This is done by adding `&` as a stop character:
```
def ext
Pathname.new(@url).extname[/[^?&]+/]
end
```
This appears to fix the issue for most (if not all) practical
purposes.
Format for oneline can be overridden in user's gitconfig. If that's the
case, last_revision_commit_of_file won't work properly, and because of
that last_revision_of_file won't work at all.
Here's what I was getting when running brew tests:
expected: "6bec2de"
got: "\e[33m6bec2dee633f\e[m"
I have abbrev length set to 12, and oneline formatting is more colorful.
So, instead of relying on overrideable format, it should rather specify
"--format=%h" to get only hash, and speciy --abbrev=7 to force abbrev
length to be 7
After this commit tests are passing for me.
These instructions are currently incorrect and need to be ported to
`python` 3.x and `python@2` formulae. Until then it's better to not have
them than have them be incorrect.
Closes#3890.
If an old alias, according to the tab, of a formula being upgraded (e.g.
python) has the same name as the main opt link of some other formula
(e.g. python@2), don't remove the main opt link of that other formula.
Specifically,
brew install python@2
brew upgrade python
should not accidentally delete /usr/local/opt/python@2 even though
python@2 used to be an alias of python.
