git_extract_argv0_path: do nothing without RUNTIME_PREFIXJeff King Wed, 6 Sep 2017 12:32:10 +0000 (08:32 -0400)

git_extract_argv0_path: do nothing without RUNTIME_PREFIX

When the RUNTIME_PREFIX compile-time knob isn't set, we
never look at the argv0_path we extract. We can push its
declaration inside the #ifdef to make it more clear that the
extract code is effectively a noop.

This also un-confuses leak-checking of the argv0_path
variable when RUNTIME_PREFIX isn't set. The compiler is free
to drop this static variable that we set but never look at
(and "gcc -O2" does so). But the compiler still must call
strbuf_detach(), since it doesn't know whether that function
has side effects; it just throws away the result rather than
putting it into the global.

Leak-checkers which work by scanning the data segment for
pointers to heap blocks would normally consider the block
as reachable at program end. But if the compiler removes the
variable entirely, there's nothing to find.

pkt-line: re-'static'-ify buffer in packet_write_fmt_1()

The static-ness was silently dropped in commit 70428d1a5 ("pkt-line: add
packet_write_fmt_gently()", 2016-10-16). As a result, for each call to
packet_write_fmt_1, we allocate and leak a buffer.

We could keep the strbuf non-static and instead make sure we always
release it before returning (but not before we die, so that we don't
touch errno). That would also prepare us for threaded use. But until
that needs to happen, let's just restore the static-ness so that we get
back to a situation where we (eventually) do not continuosly keep
allocating memory.

config: use a static lock_file structJeff King Tue, 29 Aug 2017 18:58:50 +0000 (14:58 -0400)

config: use a static lock_file struct

When modifying git config, we xcalloc() a struct lock_file
but never free it. This is necessary because the tempfile
code (upon which the locking code is built) requires that
the resulting struct remain valid through the life of the
program. However, it also confuses leak-checkers like
valgrind because only the inner "struct tempfile" is still
reachable; no pointer to the outer lock_file is kept.

Other code paths solve this by using a single static lock
struct. We can do the same here, because we know that we'll
only lock and modify one config file at a time (and
assertions within the lockfile code will ensure that this
remains the case).

That removes a real leak (when we fail to free the struct
after locking fails) as well as removes the valgrind false
positive. It also means that doing N sequential
config-writes will use a constant amount of memory, rather
than leaving stale lock_files for each.

Note that since "lock" is no longer a pointer, it can't be
NULL anymore. But that's OK. We used that feature only to
avoid calling rollback_lock_file() on an already-committed
lock. Since the lockfile code keeps its own "active" flag,
it's a noop to rollback an inactive lock, and we don't have
to worry about this ourselves.

send-email: don't use Mail::Address, even if available

Using Mail::Address made sense when we didn't have a proper parser. We
now have a reasonable address parser, and using Mail::Address
_if available_ causes much more trouble than it gives benefits:

* Developers typically test one version, not both.

* Users may not be aware that installing Mail::Address will change the
behavior. They may complain about the behavior in one case without
knowing that Mail::Address is involved.

* Having this optional Mail::Address makes it tempting to anwser "please
install Mail::Address" to users instead of fixing our own code. We've
reached the stage where bugs in our parser should be fixed, not worked
around.

send-email: fix garbage removal after address

This is a followup over 9d33439 (send-email: only allow one address
per body tag, 2017-02-20). The first iteration did allow writting

Cc: <foo@example.com> # garbage
but did so by matching the regex ([^>]*>?), i.e. stop after the first
instance of '>'. However, it did not properly deal with

Cc: foo@example.com # garbage
Fix this using a new function strip_garbage_one_address, which does
essentially what the old ([^>]*>?) was doing, but dealing with more
corner-cases. Since we've allowed

Cc: "Foo # Bar" <foobar@example.com>
in previous versions, it makes sense to continue allowing it (but we
still remove any garbage after it). OTOH, when an address is given
without quoting, we just take the first word and ignore everything
after.

vcs-svn: move remaining repo_tree functions to fast_export.h

These used to be for manipulating the in-memory repo_tree structure,
but nowadays they are convenience wrappers to handle a few git-vs-svn
mismatches:

1. Git does not track empty directories but Subversion does. When
looking up a path in git that Subversion thinks exists and finding
nothing, we can safely assume that the path represents a
directory. This is needed when a later Subversion revision
modifies that directory.

2. Subversion allows deleting a file by copying. In Git fast-import
we have to handle that more explicitly as a deletion.

These are details of the tool's interaction with git fast-import.
Move them to fast_export.c, where other such details are handled.

This way the function names do not start with a repo_ prefix that
would clash with the repository object introduced in
v2.14.0-rc0~38^2~16 (repository: introduce the repository object,
2017-06-22) or an svn_ prefix that would clash with libsvn (in case
someone wants to link this code with libsvn some day).

merge: save merge state earlier

If the `git merge` process is killed while waiting for the editor to
finish, the merge state is lost but the prepared merge msg and tree is kept.
So, a subsequent `git commit` creates a squashed merge even when the
user asked for proper merge commit originally.

Demonstrate the problem with a test crafted after the in t7502. The test
requires EXECKEEPSPID (thus does not run under MINGW).

Save the merge state earlier (in the non-squash case) so that it does
not get lost. This makes the test pass.

prepare_to_commit() cannot be reached in the non-squash case:
It is called by merge_trivial() and finish_automerge() only, but the
calls to the latter are somewhat hard to track:

If option_commit is not set, the code in cmd_merge() uses a fake
conflict return code (ret=1) to avoid writing the tree, which also
avoids setting automerge_was_ok (just as in the proper ret==1 case), so
that finish_automerge() is not called.

To ensure that no code change breaks that assumption, safe-guard
prepare_to_commit() by a BUG() statement.

apply: file commited with CRLF should roundtrip diff... Torsten Bögershausen Sat, 19 Aug 2017 11:28:01 +0000 (13:28 +0200)

apply: file commited with CRLF should roundtrip diff and apply

When a file had been commited with CRLF but now .gitattributes say
"* text=auto" (or core.autocrlf is true), the following does not
roundtrip, `git apply` fails:

printf "Added line\r\n" >>file &&
git diff >patch &&
git checkout -- . &&
git apply patch

Before applying the patch, the file from working tree is converted
into the index format (clean filter, CRLF conversion, ...). Here,
when commited with CRLF, the line endings should not be converted.

Note that `git apply --index` or `git apply --cache` doesn't call
convert_to_git() because the source material is already in index
format.

Analyze the patch if there is a) any context line with CRLF, or b)
if any line with CRLF is to be removed. In this case the patch file
`patch` has mixed line endings, for a) it looks like this:

diff --git a/one b/one
index 533790e..c30dea8 100644
--- a/one
+++ b/one
@@ -1 +1,2 @@
a\r
+b\r

And for b) it looks like this:

diff --git a/one b/one
index 533790e..485540d 100644
--- a/one
+++ b/one
@@ -1 +1 @@
-a\r
+b\r

If `git apply` detects that the patch itself has CRLF, (look at the
line " a\r" or "-a\r" above), the new flag crlf_in_old is set in
"struct patch" and two things will happen:

- read_old_data() will not convert CRLF into LF by calling
convert_to_git(..., SAFE_CRLF_KEEP_CRLF);
- The WS_CR_AT_EOL bit is set in the "white space rule",
CRLF are no longer treated as white space.

While at there, make it clear that read_old_data() in apply.c knows
what it wants convert_to_git() to do with respect to CRLF. In fact,
this codepath is about applying a patch to a file in the filesystem,
which may not exist in the index, or may exist but may not match
what is recorded in the index, or in the extreme case, we may not
even be in a Git repository. If convert_to_git() peeked at the
index while doing its work, it *would* be a bug.

Pass NULL instead of &the_index to convert_to_git() to make sure we
catch future bugs to clarify this.

Update the test in t4124: split one test case into 3:

- Detect the " a\r" line in the patch
- Detect the "-a\r" line in the patch
- Use LF in repo and CLRF in the worktree.

Currently, the documentation talks about interpolating from the object.
This is confusing because a ref points to an object but not vice versa,
so the object cannot possible know %(refname), for example. Thus, this is
wrong independent of refs being objects (one day, maybe) or not.

sub-process: print the cmd when a capability is unsupported

In handshake_capabilities() we use warning() when a capability
is not supported, so the exit code of the function is 0 and no
further error is shown. This is a problem because the warning
message doesn't tell us which subprocess cmd failed.

On the contrary if we cannot write a packet from this function,
we use error() and then subprocess_start() outputs:

initialization for subprocess '<cmd>' failed

so we can know which subprocess cmd failed.

Let's improve the warning() message, so that we can know which
subprocess cmd failed.

sha1_file: make read_info_alternates static

read_info_alternates is not used from outside, so let's make it static.

We have to declare the function before link_alt_odb_entry instead of
moving the code around, link_alt_odb_entry calls read_info_alternates,
which in turn calls link_alt_odb_entry.

t1002: stop using sum(1)René Scharfe Mon, 14 Aug 2017 20:16:34 +0000 (22:16 +0200)

t1002: stop using sum(1)

sum(1) is a command for calculating checksums of the contents of files.
It was part of early editions of Unix ("Research Unix", 1972/1973, [1]).
cksum(1) appeared in 4.4BSD (1993) as a replacement [2], and became part
of POSIX.1-2008 [3]. OpenBSD 5.6 (2014) removed sum(1).

We only use sum(1) in t1002 to check for changes in three files. On
MinGW we use md5sum(1) instead. We could switch to the standard command
cksum(1) for all platforms; MinGW comes with GNU coreutils now, which
provides sum(1), cksum(1) and md5sum(1). Use our standard method for
checking for file changes instead: test_cmp.

It's more convenient because it shows differences nicely, it's faster on
MinGW because we have a special implementation there based only on
shell-internal commands, it's simpler as it allows us to avoid stripping
out unnecessary entries from the checksum file using grep(1), and it's
more consistent with the rest of the test suite.

We already compare changed files with their expected new contents using
diff(1), so we don't need to check with "test_must_fail test_cmp" if
they differ from their original state. A later patch could convert the
direct diff(1) calls to test_cmp as well.

With all sum(1) calls gone, remove the MinGW-specific implementation
from test-lib.sh as well.

stash: prevent warning about null bytes in inputKevin Daudt Mon, 14 Aug 2017 21:43:33 +0000 (23:43 +0200)

stash: prevent warning about null bytes in input

The `no_changes` function calls the `untracked_files` function through
command substitution. `untracked_files` will return null bytes because it
runs ls-files with the '-z' option.

Bash since version 4.4 warns about these null bytes. As they are not
required for the test that is being done, make sure `untracked_files`
does not output null bytes when not required.

This is achieved by adding a parameter to the `untracked_files` function to
specify wither `-z` should be passed to ls-files or not.

This warning is triggered when running git stash save -u resulting in
two warnings:

git-stash: line 43: warning: command substitution: ignored null byte
in input

sha1_file: release delta_stack on error in unpack_entry()

When unpack_entry() encounters a broken packed object, it returns early.
It adjusts the reference count of the pack window, but leaks the buffer
for a big delta stack in case the small automatic one was not enough.
Jump to the cleanup code at end instead, which takes care of that.

strbuf: clear errno before calling getdelim(3)

getdelim(3) returns -1 at the end of the file and if it encounters an
error, but sets errno only in the latter case. Set errno to zero before
calling it to avoid misdiagnosing an out-of-memory condition due to a
left-over value from some other function call.

sha1_file: drop experimental GIT_USE_LOOKUP searchJeff King Wed, 9 Aug 2017 10:14:32 +0000 (06:14 -0400)

sha1_file: drop experimental GIT_USE_LOOKUP search

Long ago in 628522ec14 (sha1-lookup: more memory efficient
search in sorted list of SHA-1, 2007-12-29) we added
sha1_entry_pos(), a binary search that uses the uniform
distribution of sha1s to scale the selection of mid-points.
As this was a performance experiment, we tied it to the
GIT_USE_LOOKUP environment variable and never enabled it by
default.

This code was successful in reducing the number of steps in
each search. But the overhead of the scaling ends up making
it slower when the cache is warm. Here are best-of-five
timings for running rev-list on linux.git, which will have
to look up every object:

$ time git rev-list --objects --all >/dev/null
real 0m35.357s
user 0m35.016s
sys 0m0.340s

$ time GIT_USE_LOOKUP=1 git rev-list --objects --all >/dev/null
real 0m37.364s
user 0m37.045s
sys 0m0.316s

The USE_LOOKUP version might have more benefit on a cold
cache, as the time to fault in each page would dominate. But
that would be for a single lookup. In practice, most
operations tend to look up many objects, and the whole pack
.idx will end up warm.

It's possible that the code could be better optimized to
compete with a naive binary search for the warm-cache case,
and we could have the best of both worlds. But over the
years nobody has done so, and this is largely dead code that
is rarely run outside of the test suite. Let's drop it in
the name of simplicity.

This lets us remove sha1_entry_pos() entirely, as the .idx
lookup code was the only caller. Note that sha1-lookup.c
still contains sha1_pos(), which differs from
sha1_entry_pos() in two ways:

- it has a different interface; it uses a function pointer
to access sha1 entries rather than a size/offset pair
describing the table's memory layout

- it only scales the initial selection of "mi", rather
than each iteration of the search

We can't get rid of this function, as it's called from
several places. It may be that we could replace it with a
simple binary search, but that's out of scope for this patch
(and would need benchmarking).
