From: Elijah Newren <newren@xxxxxxxxx>
We have multiple bugs here -- accidental silent file deletion,
accidental silent file retention for files that should be deleted,
and incorrect number of entries left in the index.
The series merged at commit d3b88be1b450 (Merge branch
'en/merge-dir-rename-corner-case-fix', 2021-07-16) introduced testcase
12i-12k in t6423 which checked for rename-to-self cases, and fixed bugs
that merge-ort and merge-recursive had with these testcases. At the
time, I noted that merge-ort had one bug for these cases, while
merge-recursive had two. It turns out that merge-ort did in fact have
another bug, but the "relevant renames" optimizations were masking it.
If we modify testcase 12i from t6423 to modify the file in the commit
that renames it (but only modify it enough that it can still be detected
as a rename), then we can trigger silent deletion of the file.
Tweak testcase 12i slightly to make the file in question have more than
one line in it, but which doesn't change how it operates. Make this
change to otherwise minimize the changes between this testcase and a new
one that we want to add. Then duplicate the testcase as 12i2, changing
it so that it adds a single line to the file in question when it is
renamed, as a testcase for this bug.
Further, commit 98a1a00d5301 (t6423: add a testcase causing a failed
assertion in process_renames, 2025-03-06), fixed an issue with
rename-to-self but added a new testcase, 12n, that only checked for
whether the merge ran to completion. A few commits ago, we modified
this test to check for the number of entries in the index -- but noted
that the number was wrong. And we also noted a
silently-keep-instead-of-delete bug at the same time in the new testcase
12n2.
Fix to merge-ort to prevent multiple bugs with rename-to-self cases:
* silent deletion of file expected to be kept (t6423 testcase 12i2)
* silent retention of file expected to be removed (t6423 testcase 12n2)
* wrong number of extries left in the index (t6423 testcase 12n)
