Summary

  • The intended use case for mise install --locked --dry-run is a lightweight check that a lockfile is complete and valid for the current mise.toml — useful in CI without actually installing tools
  • Previously, the dry-run early return ran before the --locked validation, so missing lockfile URLs were silently ignored rather than flagged
  • Reorder the checks in install_version so locked validation runs first
  • Add e2e test for --locked mode enforcement (previously had zero e2e coverage)

The intended use case for `mise install --locked --dry-run` is a
lightweight check that a lockfile is complete for the current
mise.toml, without actually installing anything. Previously,
--dry-run returned early before the --locked check, so missing
lockfile URLs were silently ignored rather than flagged.

Move the --locked validation above the dry-run early return so both
`--locked` and `--locked --dry-run` consistently fail when lockfile
URLs are missing.

Summary of Changes

Hello @altendky, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request resolves an issue where mise install with both --locked and --dry-run flags would bypass crucial lockfile URL validation. The change reorders internal checks to ensure that lockfile integrity is verified even during a dry run, preventing silent failures and improving the reliability of CI/CD pipelines that depend on strict lockfile enforcement. This ensures that the intended lightweight check for lockfile completeness and validity functions as expected.

Highlights

  • Validation Order Fix: Reordered validation logic in install_version to ensure --locked mode checks run before --dry-run short-circuits, preventing silent bypass of lockfile URL validation.
  • Bug Resolution: Addressed a bug where mise install --locked --dry-run would silently ignore missing lockfile URLs, leading to potentially incomplete or invalid lockfile checks.
  • New End-to-End Test: Introduced a new end-to-end test to specifically verify the correct enforcement of --locked mode, especially when combined with --dry-run, ensuring robust behavior.
Changelog
  • e2e/lockfile/test_lockfile_locked_mode
    • Added a new end-to-end test to validate --locked mode behavior with and without --dry-run.
  • src/backend/mod.rs
    • Moved the --locked mode validation logic to execute before the --dry-run check within the install_version function.
    • Removed the redundant --locked mode validation from its previous position after the dry-run check.

Code Review

This pull request correctly fixes an issue where mise install --locked --dry-run would not validate the lockfile due to the dry-run check short-circuiting the logic. The change reorders the validation to occur before the dry-run check, which is the correct approach. The addition of a new e2e test, test_lockfile_locked_mode, is excellent as it specifically covers this fixed behavior and ensures no future regressions. The implementation is clean and effective. I have no further comments as the changes are solid.

Pull request overview

This PR fixes an issue where the --locked flag validation was being bypassed when combined with --dry-run. Previously, mise install --locked --dry-run would exit early without checking if lockfile URLs were present, defeating the purpose of using this combination for lightweight lockfile validation in CI.

Changes:

  • Reordered validation logic in install_version to check --locked requirements before the --dry-run early return
  • Added comprehensive e2e test coverage for --locked mode (previously had none)

File Description
src/backend/mod.rs Moved the --locked validation block (lines 864-883) before the --dry-run check (lines 885-896) to ensure lockfile URLs are validated even in dry-run mode
e2e/lockfile/test_lockfile_locked_mode New e2e test verifying that --locked fails when lockfile URLs are missing, including when combined with --dry-run, and succeeds when URLs are present
