| <div class="sectionbody"> | |
| <div class="paragraph"><p>If the <code>--anonymize</code> option is given, git will attempt to remove all | |
| identifying information from the repository while still retaining enough | |
| of the original tree and history patterns to reproduce some bugs. The | |
| goal is that a git bug which is found on a private repository will | |
| persist in the anonymized repository, and the latter can be shared with | |
| git developers to help solve the bug.</p></div> | |
| <div class="paragraph"><p>With this option, git will replace all refnames, paths, blob contents, | |
| commit and tag messages, names, and email addresses in the output with | |
| anonymized data. Two instances of the same string will be replaced | |
| equivalently (e.g., two commits with the same author will have the same | |
| anonymized author in the output, but bear no resemblance to the original | |
| author string). The relationship between commits, branches, and tags is | |
| retained, as well as the commit timestamps (but the commit messages and | |
| refnames bear no resemblance to the originals). The relative makeup of | |
| the tree is retained (e.g., if you have a root tree with 10 files and 3 | |
| trees, so will the output), but their names and the contents of the | |
| files will be replaced.</p></div> | |
| <div class="paragraph"><p>If you think you have found a git bug, you can start by exporting an | |
| anonymized stream of the whole repository:</p></div> | |
| <div class="listingblock"> | |
| <div class="content"> | |
| <pre><code>$ git fast-export --anonymize --all >anon-stream</code></pre> | |
| </div></div> | |
| <div class="paragraph"><p>Then confirm that the bug persists in a repository created from that | |
| stream (many bugs will not, as they really do depend on the exact | |
| repository contents):</p></div> | |
| <div class="listingblock"> | |
| <div class="content"> | |
| <pre><code>$ git init anon-repo | |
| $ cd anon-repo | |
| $ git fast-import <../anon-stream | |
| $ ... test your bug ...</code></pre> | |
| </div></div> | |
| <div class="paragraph"><p>If the anonymized repository shows the bug, it may be worth sharing | |
| <code>anon-stream</code> along with a regular bug report. Note that the anonymized | |
| stream compresses very well, so gzipping it is encouraged. If you want | |
| to examine the stream to see that it does not contain any private data, | |
| you can peruse it directly before sending. You may also want to try:</p></div> | |
| <div class="listingblock"> | |
| <div class="content"> | |
| <pre><code>$ perl -pe 's/\d+/X/g' <anon-stream | sort -u | less</code></pre> | |
| </div></div> | |
| <div class="paragraph"><p>which shows all of the unique lines (with numbers converted to "X", to | |
| collapse "User 0", "User 1", etc into "User X"). This produces a much | |
| smaller output, and it is usually easy to quickly confirm that there is | |
| no private data in the stream.</p></div> | |
