--- Begin Message ---Package: arcanist Version: 0~git20200925-1 Severity: grave If one has one or more commits in /some/repo one can create a Phabricator diff by running `arc diff $oldver`. If there are are untracked files in the directory the arcanist client gives the message: --------8<-----------------------------------------------------8<-------- You have untracked files in this working copy. Working copy: /some/repo Untracked changes in working copy: (To ignore these 1 change(s), add them to ".git/info/exclude".) file0 file1 file2 Ignore these 3 untracked file(s) and continue? [y/N] --------8<-----------------------------------------------------8<-------- Suspicious resemblance to what `git status` might give. If one then goes to an appropriate version of Phabricator, on the right column between "Tags" and "Subscribers" will be "Referenced Files". I have noticed "Referenced Files" appears when untracked files are present. Diffs done from repository directories with no untracked files do not have the "Referenced Files". As such I reasonably believe arcanist is NOT ignoring these files. At a minimum it is uploading metadata about them to Phabricator, at worst it is uploading them to the server without notification. Privacy and security violation. This is visible enough I suspect many people have already noticed. -- (\___(\___(\______ --=> 8-) EHM <=-- ______/)___/)___/) \BS ( | [email protected] PGP 87145445 | ) / \_CS\ | _____ -O #include <stddisclaimer.h> O- _____ | / _/ 8A19\___\_|_/58D2 7E3D DDF4 7BA6 <-PGP-> 41D1 B375 37D0 8714\_|_/___/5445
