The graph_padding_line() function outputs a series of "|"

The command accesses default_abbrev (defined in environment.c and is
updated via core.abbrev configuration), but never makes any call to

setting for this reason.
Make a call to git_config() to read the default set of configuration
variables at the beginning of the command.
When opening a loose object file, we often do this sequence:
- prepare a short buffer for the object header (on stack)
- call unpack_sha1_header() and have early part of the object data
inflated, enough to fill the buffer
- parse that data in the short buffer, assuming that the first part
of the object is <typename> SP <length> NUL
Because the parsing function parse_sha1_header_extended() is not
given the number of bytes inflated into the header buffer, it you
craft a file whose early part inflates a garbage sequence without SP
or NUL, and replace a loose object with it, it will end up reading
past the end of the inflated data.
To correct this, do the following four things:
- rename unpack_sha1_header() to unpack_sha1_short_header() and
have unpack_sha1_header_to_strbuf() keep calling that as its
helper function. This will detect and report zlib errors, but is
not aware of the format of a loose object (as before).
- introduce unpack_sha1_header() that calls the same helper
function, and when zlib reports it inflated OK into the buffer,
check if the inflated data has NUL. This would ensure that
parsing function will terminate within the buffer that holds the
inflated header.
- update unpack_sha1_header_to_strbuf() to check if the resulting
buffer has NUL for the same effect.
- update parse_sha1_header_extended() to make sure that its loop to
find the SP that terminates the <typename> stops at NUL.
Essentially, this makes unpack_*() functions that are asked to
unpack a loose object header to be a bit more strict and detect an
input that cannot possibly be a valid object header, even before the
parsing function kicks in.

Add COPY_ARRAY, a safe and convenient helper for copying arrays,
complementing ALLOC_ARRAY and REALLOC_ARRAY. Users just specify source,
destination and the number of elements; the size of an element is
inferred automatically.
It checks if the multiplication of size and element count overflows.
The inferred size is passed first to st_mult, which allows the division
there to be done at compilation time.
As a basic type safety check it makes sure the sizes of source and
destination elements are the same. That's evaluated at compilation time
as well.
COPY_ARRAY is safe to use with NULL as source pointer iff 0 elements are
to be copied. That convention is used in some cases for initializing
arrays. Raw memcpy(3) does not support it -- compilers are allowed to
assume that only valid pointers are passed to it and can optimize away
NULL checks after such a call.

We call getaddrinfo() to try to convert a short hostname
into a fully-qualified one (to use it as an email domain).
If there isn't a canonical name, getaddrinfo() will
generally return either a NULL addrinfo list, or one in
which ai->ai_canonname is a copy of the original name.
However, if the result of gethostname() looks like an IP
address, then getaddrinfo() behaves differently on some
systems. On OS X, it will return a "struct addrinfo" with a
NULL ai_canonname, and we segfault feeding it to strchr().
This is hard to test reliably because it involves not only a
system where we we have to fallback to gethostname() to come
up with an ident, but also where the hostname is a number
with no dots. But I was able to replicate the bug by faking
a hostname, like:
and running "git var GIT_AUTHOR_IDENT" on an OS X system.
Before this patch it segfaults, and after we correctly
complain of the bogus "user@1.(none)" address (though this
bogus address would be suitable for non-object uses like
writing reflogs).

verify_packfile: check pack validity before accessing data
The verify_packfile() does not explicitly open the packfile;
instead, it starts with a sha1 checksum over the whole pack,
and relies on use_pack() to open the packfile as a side
effect.
If the pack cannot be opened for whatever reason (either
because its header information is corrupted, or perhaps
because a simultaneous repack deleted it), then use_pack()
will die(), as it has no way to return an error. This is not
ideal, as verify_packfile() otherwise tries to gently return
an error (this lets programs like git-fsck go on to check
other packs).
Instead, let's check is_pack_valid() up front, and return an
error if it fails. This will open the pack as a side effect,
and then use_pack() will later rely on our cached
descriptor, and avoid calling die().

Note: the original motivation for this patch was to fix a bug where

regex: add regexec_buf() that can work on a non NUL-terminated string
We just introduced a test that demonstrates that our sloppy use of
regexec() on a mmap()ed area can result in incorrect results or even
hard crashes.
So what we need to fix this is a function that calls regexec() on a
length-delimited, rather than a NUL-terminated, string.
Happily, there is an extension to regexec() introduced by the NetBSD
project and present in all major regex implementation including
Linux', MacOSX' and the one Git includes in compat/regex/: by using
the (non-POSIX) REG_STARTEND flag, it is possible to tell the
regexec() function that it should only look at the offsets between
pmatch[0].rm_so and pmatch[0].rm_eo.
That is exactly what we need.
Since support for REG_STARTEND is so widespread by now, let's just
introduce a helper function that always uses it, and tell people
on a platform whose regex library does not support it to use the
one from our compat/regex/ directory.

regex: -G<pattern> feeds a non NUL-terminated string to regexec() and fails
When our pickaxe code feeds file contents to regexec(), it implicitly
assumes that the file contents are read into implicitly NUL-terminated
buffers (i.e. that we overallocate by 1, appending a single '\0').
This is not so.
In particular when the file contents are simply mmap()ed, we can be
virtually certain that the buffer is preceding uninitialized bytes, or
invalid pages.
Note that the test we add here is known to be flakey: we simply cannot
know whether the byte following the mmap()ed ones is a NUL or not.
Typically, on Linux the test passes. On Windows, it fails virtually
every time due to an access violation (that's a segmentation fault for
you Unix-y people out there). And Windows would be correct: the
regexec() call wants to operate on a regular, NUL-terminated string,
there is no NUL in the mmap()ed memory range, and it is undefined
whether the next byte is even legal to access.
When run with --valgrind it demonstrates quite clearly the breakage, of
course.
Being marked with `test_expect_failure`, this test will sometimes be
declare "TODO fixed", even if it only passes by mistake.
This test case represents a Minimal, Complete and Verifiable Example of
a breakage reported by Chris Sidi.

xdiff: fix merging of hunks with -W context and -u context
If the function context for a hunk (with -W) reaches the beginning of
the next hunk then we need to merge these two -- otherwise we'd show
some lines twice, which looks strange and even confuses git apply. We
already do this checking and merging in xdl_emit_diff(), but forget to
consider regular context (with -u or -U).
Fix that by merging hunks already if function context of the first one
touches or overlaps regular context of the second one.

Currently there is no test checking the expected behaviour when multiple
chmod flags with different arguments are passed. As argument handling
is not in line with other git commands it's easy to miss and
accidentally change the current behaviour.
While there, fix the argument type of chmod_path, which takes an int,
but had a char passed in.

Merge branch 'ib/t3700-add-chmod-x-updates' into tg/add-chmod+x-fix
Newly added tests to this topic uses helper functions that did not
exist back when the bug being fixed by the topic was introduced.
* ib/t3700-add-chmod-x-updates:
t3700: add a test_mode_in_index helper function
t3700: merge two tests into one
t3700: remove unwanted leftover files before running new tests
unpack-trees: pass checkout state explicitly to check_updates()
Add a parameter for the struct checkout variable to check_updates()
instead of using a static global variable. Passing it explicitly makes
object ownership and usage more easily apparent. And we get rid of a
static variable; those can be problematic in library-like code.
