When we want to know the local timezone offset at a given
timestamp, we compute it by asking for localtime() at the
given time, and comparing the offset to GMT at that time.
However, there's some juggling between time_t and "struct
tm" which happens, which involves calling our own
tm_to_time_t().
If that function returns an error (e.g., because it only
handles dates up to the year 2099), it returns "-1", which
we treat as a time_t, and is clearly bogus, leading to
bizarre timestamps (that seem to always adjust the time back
to (time_t)(uint32_t)-1, in the year 2106).
It's not a good idea for local_tzoffset() to simply die
here; it would make it hard to run "git log" on a repository
with funny timestamps. Instead, let's just treat such cases
as "zero offset".

clone: do not let --depth imply --shallow-submodules

sh-setup: enclose setting of ${VAR=default} in double-quotes
We often make sure an environment variable is set to

: ${VAR=default value}
i.e. running the no-op command ":" with ${VAR} as its
parameters (or the default value we supply), relying on that
":" is a no-op.
This pattern, even though it is no-op from correctness point
of view, still can be expensive if the existing value in VAR
has shell glob (because they will be expanded against
filesystem entities) and IFS whitespaces (because the value
need to be split into multiple parameters). Our invocation
of ":" command does not care if the parameter given to it is
after the value in VAR goes through these processing.
Enclosing the whole thing in double-quote, i.e.
: "${VAR=default value}"
avoids paying the unnecessary cost, so let's do so.

gpg-interface: check gpg signature creation status
When we create a signature, it may happen that gpg returns with
"success" but not with an actual detached signature on stdout.
Check for the correct signature creation status to catch these cases
better. Really, --status-fd parsing is the only way to check gpg status
reliably. We do the same for verify already.

Similar to the prior commit for verify_signed_buffer, the
motivation here is both to make the code simpler, and to
avoid any possible deadlocks with gpg.
In this case we have the same "write to stdin, then read
from stdout" that the verify case had. This is unlikely to
be a problem in practice, since stdout has the detached
signature, which it cannot compute until it has read all of
stdin (if it were a non-detached signature, that would be a
problem, though).
We don't read from stderr at all currently. However, we will
want to in a future patch, so this also prepares us there
(and in that case gpg _does_ write before reading all of the
input, though again, it is unlikely that a key uid will fill
up a pipe buffer).

This is shorter and should make the function easier to
follow. But more importantly, it removes the possibility of
any deadlocks based on reading or writing to gpg.
It's not clear if such a deadlock is possible in practice.
We do write the whole payload before reading anything, so we
could deadlock there. However, in practice gpg will need to
read our whole input to verify the signature, so it will
drain our payload first. It could write an error to stderr
before reading, but it's unlikely that such an error
wouldn't be followed by it immediately exiting, or that the
error would actually be larger than a pipe buffer.
On the writing side, we drain stderr (with the
human-readable output) in its entirety before reading stdout
(with the status-fd data). Running strace on "gpg --verify"
does show interleaved output on the two descriptors:
The second line written to stdout there contains the
signer's UID, which can be arbitrarily long. If it fills the
pipe buffer, then gpg would block writing to its stdout,
while we are blocked trying to read its stderr.
In practice, GPG seems to limit UIDs to 2048 bytes, so
unless your pipe buffer size is quite small, or unless gpg
does not enforce the limit under some conditions, this seems
unlikely in practice.
Still, it is not hard for us to be cautious and just use
pipe_command.

We already have capture_command(), which captures the stdout
of a command in a way that avoids deadlocks. But sometimes
we need to do more I/O, like capturing stderr as well, or
sending data to stdin. It's easy to write code that
deadlocks racily in these situations depending on how fast
the command reads its input, or in which order it writes its
output.
Let's give callers an easy interface for doing this the
right way, similar to what capture_command() did for the
simple case.
The whole thing is backed by a generic poll() loop that can
feed an arbitrary number of buffers to descriptors, and fill
an arbitrary number of strbufs from other descriptors. This
seems like overkill, but the resulting code is actually a
bit cleaner than just handling the three descriptors
(because the output code for stdout/stderr is effectively
duplicated, so being able to loop is a benefit).

We use git_mkstemp to create a temporary file, and try to
clean it up in all exit paths from the function. But that
misses any cases where we die by signal, or by calling die()
in a sub-function. In addition, we missed one of the exit
paths.
Let's convert to using a tempfile object, which handles the
hard cases for us, and add the missing cleanup call. Note
that we would not simply want to rely on program exit to
catch our missed cleanup, as this function may be called
many times in a single program (for the same reason, we use
a static tempfile instead of heap-allocating a new one; that

If our caller gave us a non-NULL gpg_status parameter, we
write the gpg status into their strbuf. If they didn't, then
we write it to a temporary local strbuf (since we still need
to look at it). The variable "pbuf" adds an extra layer of
indirection so that the rest of the function can just access
whichever is appropriate.
However, the name "pbuf" isn't very descriptive, and it's
easy to get confused about what is supposed to be in it
(especially because we are reading both "status" and
"output" from gpg).
Rather than give it a more descriptive name, we can just use
gpg_status as our indirection pointer. Either it points to
the caller's input, or we can point it directly to our
temporary buffer.

bisect: always call setup_revisions after init_revisions
init_revisions() initializes the rev_info struct to default
values, and setup_revisions() parses any command-line
arguments and finalizes the struct.
In e22278c (bisect: display first bad commit without forking

that calls the former but not the latter. It doesn't have
any arguments to parse, but it still should do the
finalizing step.
This may have caused other minor bugs over the years, but it
became much more prominent after fe37a9c (pretty: allow
tweaking tabwidth in --expand-tabs, 2016-03-29). That leaves
the expected tab width as "-1", rather than the true default
of "8". When we see a commit with tabs to be expanded, we
end up trying to add (size_t)-1 spaces to a strbuf, which
complains about the integer overflow.

arguments.

repack: extend --keep-unreachable to loose objects
If you use "repack -adk" currently, we will pack all objects
that are already packed into the new pack, and then drop the
old packs. However, loose unreachable objects will be left
as-is. In theory these are meant to expire eventually with
"git prune". But if you are using "repack -k", you probably
want to keep things forever and therefore do not run "git
prune" at all. Meaning those loose objects may build up over
time and end up fooling any object-count heuristics (such as
the one done by "gc --auto", though since git-gc does not
support "repack -k", this really applies to whatever custom
scripts people might have driving "repack -k").
With this patch, we instead stuff any loose unreachable
objects into the pack along with the already-packed
unreachable objects. This may seem wasteful, but it is
really no more so than using "repack -k" in the first place.
We are at a slight disadvantage, in that we have no useful
ordering for the result, or names to hand to the delta code.
However, this is again no worse than what "repack -k" is
already doing for the packed objects. The packing of these
objects doesn't matter much because they should not be
accessed frequently (unless they actually _do_ become
referenced, but then they would get moved to a different
part of the packfile during the next repack).
Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
The usual way to do a full repack (and what is done by
git-gc) is to run "repack -Ad --unpack-unreachable=<when>",
which will loosen any unreachable objects newer than
"<when>", and drop any older ones.
This is a safer alternative to "repack -ad", because
"<when>" becomes a grace period during which we will not
drop any new objects that are about to be referenced.
However, it isn't perfectly safe. It's always possible that
a process is about to reference an old object. Even if that
process were to take care to update the timestamp on the
object, there is no atomicity with a simultaneously running
"repack" process.
So while unlikely, there is a small race wherein we may drop
an object that is in the process of being referenced. If you
do automated repacking on a large number of active
repositories, you may hit it eventually, and the result is a
corrupted repository.
It would be nice to fix that race in the long run, but it's
complicated. In the meantime, there is a much simpler
strategy for automated repository maintenance: do not drop
objects at all. We already have a "--keep-unreachable"
option in pack-objects; we just need to plumb it through
from git-repack.
Note that this _isn't_ plumbed through from git-gc, so at
this point it's strictly a tool for people doing their own
advanced repository maintenance strategy.

Historically, the normal all-zeros initialization has

parse_opt_string_list: stop allocating new strings
The parse_opt_string_list callback is basically a thin
wrapper to string_list_append() any string options we get.
However, it calls:
string_list_append(v, xstrdup(arg));
which duplicates the option value. This is wrong for two
reasons:
1. If the string list has strdup_strings set, then we are
making an extra copy, which is simply leaked.
2. If the string list does not have strdup_strings set,
then we pass memory ownership to the string list, but
it does not realize this. If we later call
string_list_clear(), which can happen if "--no-foo" is
passed, then we will leak all of the existing entries.
Instead, we should just pass the argument straight to
string_list_append, and it can decide whether to copy or not
based on its strdup_strings flag.
It's possible that some (buggy) caller could be relying on
this extra copy (e.g., because it parses some options from
an allocated argv array and then frees the array), but it's
not likely. For one, we generally only use parse_options on
the argv given to us in main(). And two, such a caller is
broken anyway, because other option types like OPT_STRING()
do not make such a copy. This patch brings us in line with
them.

send-pack: use buffered I/O to talk to pack-objects
We start a pack-objects process and then write all of the
positive and negative sha1s to it over a pipe. We do so by
formatting each item into a fixed-size buffer and then
writing each individually. This has two drawbacks:
1. There's some manual computation of the buffer size,
which is not immediately obvious is correct (though it
is).
2. We write() once per sha1, which means a lot more system
calls than are necessary.
We can solve both by wrapping the pipe descriptor in a stdio
handle; this is the same technique used by upload-pack when
serving fetches.
Note that we can also simplify and improve the error
handling here. The original detected a single write error
and broke out of the loop (presumably to avoid writing the
error message over and over), but never actually acted on
seeing an error; we just fed truncated input and took
whatever pack-objects returned.
In practice, this probably didn't matter, as the likely
errors would be caused by pack-objects dying (and we'd
probably just die with SIGPIPE anyway). But we can easily
make this simpler and more robust; the stdio handle keeps an
error flag, which we can check at the end.

Commit 72441af (tree-diff: rework diff_tree() to generate
diffs for multiparent cases as well, 2014-04-07) introduced
the use of alloca so that the common cases of commits with 1
or 2 parents would not be adversely affected by going
through the multi-parent code.
However, our xalloca is not ideal when the number of parents
grows very large:
1. If the requested size is too large for our stack,
alloca() has no way to tell us, and we simply segfault
while trying to access the memory.
2. It does not use our usual memory_limit_check() logic.
I measured, and alloca is indeed buying us a very small
speedup over xmalloc()/free(). So we'd want to keep
something like it.
This patch simply puts a conditional in place at each
callsite: we use alloca for common known-small numbers of
parents, and otherwise use the heap. We are technically
still vulnerable to (1), but no more so than if we simply
put a few dozen bytes on the stack, which we must do all the
time anyway. And likewise, we technically miss a memory
limit check if it is tiny, but such a limit is pointless.
An alternative to this would be implement something like:
struct tree *tp, tp_fallback[2];
if (nparent <= ARRAY_SIZE(tp_fallback))
tp = tp_fallback;
else
ALLOC_ARRAY(tp, nparent);
...
if (tp != tp_fallback)
free(tp);
That would let us drop our xalloca() portability code
entirely. But in my measurements, this seemed to perform
slightly worse than the xalloca solution.
Note in the example above, and in the patch below, I've used
ALLOC_ARRAY() to replace the manual xmalloc(nr * sizeof(*x)).
Besides being shorter, this has the bonus that one cannot
accidentally overflow a size_t during that computation.

The executable bit will not be detected (and therefore will not be
set) for paths in a repository with `core.filemode` set to false,
though the users may still wish to add files as executable for
compatibility with other users who _do_ have `core.filemode`
functionality. For example, Windows users adding shell scripts may
wish to add them as executable for compatibility with users on
non-Windows.
Although this can be done with a plumbing command
(`git update-index --add --chmod=+x foo`), teaching the `git-add`
command allows users to set a file executable with a command that
they're already familiar with.

Since commit 56a1a3ab ("Silence GCC's \"cast of pointer to integer of a
different size\" warning", 26-10-2015), sparse has been issuing a macro
redefinition warning for the SIZE_MAX macro. However, gcc did not issue
any such warning.
After commit 56a1a3ab, in terms of the order of #includes and #defines,
the code looked something like:
However, if you compile that file with -Wsystem-headers, then it will
also issue a warning. Having set -Wsystem-headers in CFLAGS, using the
config.mak file, then (on cygwin):
$ make compat/regex/regex.o
CC compat/regex/regex.o
In file included from /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-cygwin/4.9.3/include/stdint.h:9:0,
from compat/regex/regcomp.c:21,
from compat/regex/regex.c:77:
/usr/include/stdint.h:362:0: warning: "SIZE_MAX" redefined
#define SIZE_MAX (__SIZE_MAX__)
^
In file included from compat/regex/regex.c:69:0:
compat/regex/regex_internal.h:108:0: note: this is the location of the previous definition
# define SIZE_MAX ((size_t) -1)
^
$
The compilation of the compat/regex code is somewhat unusual in that the
regex.c file directly #includes the other c files (regcomp.c, regexec.c
and regex_internal.c). Commit 56a1a3ab added an #include of <stdint.h>
to the regcomp.c file, which results in the redefinition, since this is
included after the regex_internal.h header. This header file contains a
'fallback' definition for SIZE_MAX, in order to support systems which do
not have the <stdint.h> header (the HAVE_STDINT_H macro is not defined).
In order to suppress the warning, we move the #include of <stdint.h>
from regcomp.c to the start of the compilation unit, close to the top
of regex.c, prior to the #include of the regex_internal.h header.

reflog: continue walking the reflog past root commits
If a repository contains more than one root commit, then its HEAD
reflog may contain multiple "creation events", i.e. entries whose
"from" value is the null sha1. Listing such a reflog currently stops
prematurely at the first such entry, even when the reflog still
contains older entries. This can scare users into thinking that their
reflog got truncated after 'git checkout --orphan'.
Continue walking the reflog past such creation events based on the
preceeding reflog entry's "new" value.
The test 'symbolic-ref writes reflog entry' in t1401-symbolic-ref
implicitly relies on the current behavior of the reflog walker to stop
at a root commit and thus to list only the reflog entries that are
relevant for that test. Adjust the test to explicitly specify the
number of relevant reflog entries to be listed.

Combined with "git format-patch --pretty=mboxrd", this should
allow us to round-trip commit messages with embedded mbox
"From " lines without corruption.
Signed-off-by: Eric Wong <e@80x24.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
This output format prevents format-patch output from breaking
readers if somebody copy+pasted an mbox into a commit message.
Unlike the traditional "mboxo" format, "mboxrd" is designed to
be fully-reversible. "mboxrd" also gracefully degrades to
showing extra ">" in existing "mboxo" readers.
This degradation is preferable to breaking message splitting
completely, a problem I've seen in "mboxcl" due to having
multiple, non-existent, or inaccurate Content-Length headers.
"mboxcl2" is a non-starter since it's inherits the problems
of "mboxcl" while being completely incompatible with existing
tooling based around mailsplit.
