sha1_loose_object_info: handle errors from unpack_sha1_restJeff King Thu, 5 Oct 2017 05:59:52 +0000 (01:59 -0400)

sha1_loose_object_info: handle errors from unpack_sha1_rest

When a caller of sha1_object_info_extended() sets the
"contentp" field in object_info, we call unpack_sha1_rest()
but do not check whether it signaled an error.

This causes two problems:

1. We pass back NULL to the caller via the contentp field,
but the function returns "0" for success. A caller
might reasonably expect after a successful return that
it can access contentp without a NULL check and
segfault.

As it happens, this is impossible to trigger in the
current code. There is exactly one caller which uses
contentp, read_object(). And the only thing it does
after a successful call is to return the content
pointer to its caller, using NULL as a sentinel for
errors. So in effect it converts the success code from
sha1_object_info_extended() back into an error!

But this is still worth addressing avoid problems for
future users of "contentp".

2. Callers of unpack_sha1_rest() are expected to close the
zlib stream themselves on error. Which means that we're
leaking the stream.

The problem in (1) comes from from c84a1f3ed4 (sha1_file:
refactor read_object, 2017-06-21), which added the contentp
field. Before that, we called unpack_sha1_rest() via
unpack_sha1_file(), which directly used the NULL to signal
an error.

But note that the leak in (2) is actually older than that.
The original unpack_sha1_file() directly returned the result
of unpack_sha1_rest() to its caller, when it should have
been closing the zlib stream itself on error.

fsck: handle NULL return of lookup_blob() and lookup_tree()René Scharfe Thu, 5 Oct 2017 19:41:26 +0000 (21:41 +0200)

fsck: handle NULL return of lookup_blob() and lookup_tree()

lookup_blob() and lookup_tree() can return NULL if they find an object
of an unexpected type. Accessing the object member is undefined in that
case. Cast the result to a struct object pointer instead; we can do
that because object is the first member of all object types. This trick
is already used in other places in the code.

An error message is already shown by object_as_type(), which is called
by the lookup functions. The walk callback functions are expected to
handle NULL object pointers passed to them, but put_object_name() needs
a valid object, so avoid calling it without one.

ref-filter.c: pass empty-string as NULL to atom parsers

Peff points out that different atom parsers handle the empty
"sub-argument" list differently. An example of this is the format
"%(refname:)".

Since callers often use `string_list_split` (which splits the empty
string with any delimiter as a 1-ary string_list containing the empty
string), this makes handling empty sub-argument strings non-ergonomic.

Let's fix this by declaring that atom parser implementations must
not care about distinguishing between the empty string "%(refname:)"
and no sub-arguments "%(refname)". Current code aborts, either with
"unrecognised arg" (e.g. "refname:") or "does not take args"
(e.g. "body:") as an error message.

strbuf doc: reuse after strbuf_release is fineJonathan Nieder Wed, 4 Oct 2017 02:39:54 +0000 (19:39 -0700)

strbuf doc: reuse after strbuf_release is fine

strbuf_release leaves the strbuf in a valid, initialized state, so
there is no need to call strbuf_init after it.

Moreover, this is not likely to change in the future: strbuf_release
leaving the strbuf in a valid state has been easy to maintain and has
been very helpful for Git's robustness and simplicity (e.g.,
preventing use-after-free vulnerabilities).

Document the semantics so the next generation of Git developers can
become familiar with them without reading the implementation. It is
still not advisable to call strbuf_release too often because it is
wasteful, so add a note pointing to strbuf_reset for that.

The same semantics apply to strbuf_detach. Add a similar note to its
docstring to make that clear.

branch: reset instead of release a strbuf

Our documentation advises to not re-use a strbuf, after strbuf_release
has been called on it. Use the proper reset instead.

Currently 'strbuf_release' releases and re-initializes the strbuf, so it
is safe, but slow. 'strbuf_reset' only resets the internal length variable,
such that this could also be accounted for as a micro-optimization.

sub-process: use child_process.args instead of child_process.argv

Currently the argv is only allocated on the stack, and then assigned to
process->argv. When the start_subprocess function goes out of scope,
the local argv variable is eliminated from the stack, but the pointer is
still kept around in process->argv.

Much later when we try to access the same process->argv in
finish_command, this leads us to access a memory location that no longer
contains what we want. As argv0 is only used for printing errors, this
is not easily noticed in normal git operations. However when running
t0021-conversion.sh through valgrind, valgrind rightfully complains:

These days, the child_process structure has its own args array, and
the standard way to set up its argv[] is to use that one, instead of
assigning to process->argv to point at an array that is outside.
Use that facility automatically fixes this issue.

http-push: fix construction of hex value from path

The get_oid_hex_from_objpath takes care of creating a oid from a
pathname. It does this by memcpy'ing the first two bytes of the path to
the "hex" string, then skipping the '/', and then copying the rest of the
path to the "hex" string. Currently it fails to increase the pointer to
the hex string, so the second memcpy invocation just mashes over what
was copied in the first one, and leaves the last two bytes in the string
uninitialized.

This breaks valgrind in t5540, although the test passes without
valgrind:

==5490== Use of uninitialised value of size 8

using the 'suitable' words in *all* cases.

The tests for --color-moved write their output to a file,

color: make "always" the same as "auto" in configJeff King Tue, 3 Oct 2017 13:46:06 +0000 (09:46 -0400)

color: make "always" the same as "auto" in config

It can be handy to use `--color=always` (or it's synonym
`--color`) on the command-line to convince a command to
produce color even if it's stdout isn't going to the
terminal or a pager.

What's less clear is whether it makes sense to set config
variables like color.ui to `always`. For a one-shot like:

git -c color.ui=always ...

it's potentially useful (especially if the command doesn't
directly support the `--color` option). But setting `always`
in your on-disk config is much muddier, as you may be
surprised when piped commands generate colors (and send them
to whatever is consuming the pipe downstream).

Some people have done this anyway, because:

1. The documentation for color.ui makes it sound like
using `always` is a good idea, when you almost
certainly want `auto`.

2. Traditionally not every command (and especially not
plumbing) respected color.ui in the first place. So
the confusion came up less frequently than it might
have.

The situation changed in 136c8c8b8f (color: check color.ui
in git_default_config(), 2017-07-13), which negated point
(2): now scripts using only plumbing commands (like
add-interactive) are broken by this setting.

That commit was fixing real issues (e.g., by making
`color.ui=never` work, since `auto` is the default), so we
don't want to just revert it. We could turn `always` into a
noop in plumbing commands, but that creates a hard-to-explain
inconsistency between the plumbing and other commands.

Instead, let's just turn `always` into `auto` for all config.
This does break the "one-shot" config shown above, but again,
we're probably better to have simple and consistent rules than
to try to special-case command-line config.

There is one place where `always` should retain its meaning:
on the command line, `--color=always` should continue to be
the same as `--color`, overriding any isatty checks. Since the
command-line parser also depends on git_config_colorbool(), we
can use the existence of the "var" string to deterine whether
we are serving the command-line or the config.

provide --color option for all ref-filter usersJeff King Tue, 3 Oct 2017 13:45:47 +0000 (09:45 -0400)

provide --color option for all ref-filter users

When ref-filter learned about want_color() in 11b087adfd
(ref-filter: consult want_color() before emitting colors,
2017-07-13), it became useful to be able to turn colors off
and on for specific commands. For git-branch, you can do so
with --color/--no-color.

But for git-for-each-ref and git-tag, the other users of
ref-filter, you have no option except to tweak the
"color.ui" config setting. Let's give both of these commands
the usual color command-line options.

This is a bit more obvious as a method for overriding the
config. And it also prepares us for the behavior of "always"
changing (so that we are still left with a way of forcing
color when our output goes to a non-terminal).

To test the color output, we must convince "git branch" to

We test the %C() format placeholders with a variety of
color-inducing options, including "--color" and

"always" tests.

We can drop ones that expect "always" to turn on color even
to a file, as that will become a synonym for "auto", which
is already tested.

For the "--no-color" test, we need to make sure that color
would otherwise be shown. To do this, we can use
test_terminal, which enables colors in the default setup.

t7502: use diff.noprefix for --verbose test

To check that "status -v" respects diff config, we set
"color.diff" and look at the output of "status". We could
equally well use any diff config. Since color output depends
on a lot of other factors (like whether stdout is a tty, and
how we interpret "always"), let's use a more mundane option.

This script tests the output of status with various formats
when color is enabled. It uses the "always" setting so that
the output is valid even though we capture it in a file.
Using test_terminal gives us a more realistic environment,
and prepares us for the behavior of "always" changing.

Arguably we are testing less than before, since "auto" is
already the default, and we can no longer tell if the config
is actually doing anything.

t3701: use test-terminal to collect color output

When testing whether "add -p" can generate colors, we set
color.ui to "always". This isn't a very good test, as in the
real-world a user typically has "auto" coupled with stdout
going to a terminal (and it's plausible that this could mask
a real bug in add--interactive if we depend on plumbing's
isatty check).

realistic environment. This also prepare us for future

test-terminal: set TERM=vt100Jeff King Tue, 3 Oct 2017 13:39:34 +0000 (09:39 -0400)

test-terminal: set TERM=vt100

The point of the test-terminal script is to simulate in the
test scripts an environment where output is going to a real
terminal.

But since test-lib.sh also sets TERM=dumb, the simulation
isn't very realistic. The color code will skip auto-coloring
for TERM=dumb, leading to us liberally sprinkling

test_terminal env TERM=vt100 git ...

through the test suite to convince the tests to actually
generate colors. Let's set TERM for programs run under
test_terminal, which is one less thing for test-writers to
remember.

In most cases the callers can be simplified, but note there
is one interesting case in t4202. It uses test_terminal to
check the auto-enabling of --decorate, but the expected
output _doesn't_ contain colors (because TERM=dumb
suppresses them). Using TERM=vt100 is closer to what the
real world looks like; adjust the expected output to match.

"trailers"'s arguments when used through "%(contents)", like:

%(contents:trailers:unfold,only)

A caveat: trailers_atom_parser expects NULL when no arguments are given
(see: `parse_ref_filter_atom`). This is because string_list_split (given
a maxsplit of -1) returns a 1-ary string_list* containing the given
string if the delimiter could not be found using `strchr`.

To simulate this behavior without teaching trailers_atom_parser to
accept strings with length zero, conditionally pass NULL to
trailers_atom_parser if the arguments portion of the argument to
%(contents) is empty.

We currently have one test for %(trailers) in `git-for-each-ref(1)`,
through "%(contents:trailers)". In preparation for more, let's add a few
things:

- Move the commit creation step to its own test so that it can be
re-used.

- Add a non-trailer to the commit's trailers to test that non-trailers
aren't shown using "%(trailers:only)".

- Add a multi-line trailer to ensure that trailers are unfolded
correctly using "%(trailers:unfold)".

t4205: unfold across multiple lines

Tests in t4205 test the following:

By ensuring the multi-line trailers are unfolded back onto the same

fail for folded trailers on 3 or more lines.

tag: avoid NULL pointer arithmetic

lookup_blob() etc. can return NULL if the referenced object isn't of the
expected type. In theory it's wrong to reference the object member in
that case. In practice it's OK because it's located at offset 0 for all
types, so the pointer arithmetic (NULL + 0) is optimized out by the
compiler. The issue is reported by Clang's AddressSanitizer, though.

Avoid the ASan error by casting the results of the lookup functions to
struct object pointers. That works fine with NULL pointers as well. We
already rely on the object member being first in all object types in
other places in the code.

oidmap: map with OID as keyJonathan Tan Fri, 29 Sep 2017 22:54:22 +0000 (15:54 -0700)

oidmap: map with OID as key

This is similar to using the hashmap in hashmap.c, but with an
easier-to-use API. In particular, custom entry comparisons no longer
need to be written, and lookups can be done without constructing a
temporary entry structure.

This is implemented as a thin wrapper over the hashmap API. In
particular, this means that there is an additional 4-byte overhead due
to the fact that the first 4 bytes of the hash is redundantly stored.
For now, I'm taking the simpler approach, but if need be, we can
reimplement oidmap without affecting the callers significantly.

oidset has been updated to use oidmap.

clang-format: adjust line break penaltiesJohannes Schindelin Fri, 29 Sep 2017 18:26:44 +0000 (20:26 +0200)

clang-format: adjust line break penalties

We really, really, really want to limit the columns to 80 per line: One
of the few consistent style comments on the Git mailing list is that the
lines should not have more than 80 columns/line (even if 79 columns/line
would make more sense, given that the code is frequently viewed as diff,
and diffs adding an extra character).

The penalty of 5 for excess characters is way too low to guarantee that,
though, as pointed out by Brandon Williams.

From the existing clang-format examples and documentation, it appears
that 100 is a penalty deemed appropriate for Stuff You Really Don't
Want, so let's assign that as the penalty for "excess characters", i.e.
overly long lines.

While at it, adjust the penalties further: we are actually not that keen
on preventing new line breaks within comments or string literals, so the
penalty of 100 seems awfully high.

Likewise, we are not all that adamant about keeping line breaks away
from assignment operators (a lot of Git's code breaks immediately after
the `=` character just to keep that 80 columns/line limit).

We do frown a little bit more about functions' return types being on
their own line than the penalty 0 would suggest, so this was adjusted,
too.

Finally, we do not particularly fancy breaking before the first parameter
in a call, but if it keeps the line shorter than 80 columns/line, that's
what we do, so lower the penalty for breaking before a call's first
parameter, but not quite as much as introducing new line breaks to
comments.

fast-import: checkpoint: dump branches/tags/marks even... Eric Rannaud Fri, 29 Sep 2017 03:09:36 +0000 (20:09 -0700)

fast-import: checkpoint: dump branches/tags/marks even if object_count==0

The checkpoint command cycles packfiles if object_count != 0, a sensible
test or there would be no pack files to write. Since 820b931012, the
command also dumps branches, tags and marks, but still conditionally.
However, it is possible for a command stream to modify refs or create
marks without creating any new objects.

For example, reset a branch (and keep fast-import running):

$ git fast-import
reset refs/heads/master
from refs/heads/master^

checkpoint

but refs/heads/master remains unchanged.

Other example: a commit command that re-creates an object that already
exists in the object database.

The man page also states that checkpoint "updates the refs" and that
"placing a progress command immediately after a checkpoint will inform
the reader when the checkpoint has been completed and it can safely
access the refs that fast-import updated". This wasn't always true
without this patch.

This fix unconditionally calls dump_{branches,tags,marks}() for all
checkpoint commands. dump_branches() and dump_tags() are cheap to call
in the case of a no-op.

Add tests to t9300 that observe the (non-packfiles) effects of
checkpoint.
