revision: read --stdin with strbuf_getline()

Reading with getwholeline() and manually stripping the terminating
'\n' would leave CR at the end of the line if the input comes from
a DOS editor.

Constrasting this with the other changes around "--stdin" in this
series, one may realize that the way "log" family of commands read
the paths with "--stdin" looks inconsistent and sloppy. It does not
allow us to C-quote a textual input, neither does it accept records
that are NUL-terminated. These are unfortunately way too late to
fix X-<.

Now there is no direct caller to strbuf_getline(), we can demote it
to file-scope static that is private to strbuf.c and rename it to
strbuf_getdelim(). Rename strbuf_getline_crlf(), which is designed
to be the most "text friendly" variant, and allow it to take over
this simplest name, strbuf_getline(), so we can add more uses of it
without having to type _crlf over and over again in the coming

strbuf: introduce strbuf_getline_{lf,nul}()Junio C Hamano Wed, 13 Jan 2016 23:31:17 +0000 (15:31 -0800)

strbuf: introduce strbuf_getline_{lf,nul}()

The strbuf_getline() interface allows a byte other than LF or NUL as
the line terminator, but this is only because I wrote these
codepaths anticipating that there might be a value other than NUL
and LF that could be useful when I introduced line_termination long
time ago. No useful caller that uses other value has emerged.

By now, it is clear that the interface is overly broad without a
good reason. Many codepaths have hardcoded preference to read
either LF terminated or NUL terminated records from their input, and
then call strbuf_getline() with LF or NUL as the third parameter.

This step introduces two thin wrappers around strbuf_getline(),
namely, strbuf_getline_lf() and strbuf_getline_nul(), and
mechanically rewrites these call sites to call either one of
them. The changes contained in this patch are:

* introduction of these two functions in strbuf.[ch]

* mechanical conversion of all callers to strbuf_getline() with
either '\n' or '\0' as the third parameter to instead call the
respective thin wrapper.

After this step, output from "git grep 'strbuf_getline('" would
become a lot smaller. An interim goal of this series is to make
this an empty set, so that we can have strbuf_getline_crlf() take
over the shorter name strbuf_getline().

t0060: loosen overly strict expectationsJohannes Schindelin Thu, 14 Jan 2016 06:48:27 +0000 (07:48 +0100)

t0060: loosen overly strict expectations

The dirname() tests file were developed and tested on only the five
platforms available to the developer at the time, namely: Linux (both 32
and 64bit), Windows XP 32-bit (MSVC), MinGW 32-bit and Cygwin 32-bit.

http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/basename.html
(i.e. the POSIX spec) says, in part:

If the string pointed to by path consists entirely of the '/'
character, basename() shall return a pointer to the string "/".
If the string pointed to by path is exactly "//", it is
implementation-defined whether "/" or "//" is returned.

The thinking behind testing precise, OS-dependent output values was to
document that different setups produce different values. However, as the
test failures on MacOSX illustrated eloquently: hardcoding pretty much each
and every setup's expectations is pretty fragile.

This is not limited to the "//" vs "/" case, of course, other inputs are
also allowed to produce multiple outputs by the POSIX specs.

So let's just test for all allowed values and be done with it. This still
documents that Git cannot rely on one particular output value in those
cases, so the intention of the original tests is still met.

strbuf: make strbuf_getline_crlf() global

Often we read "text" files that are supplied by the end user
(e.g. commit log message that was edited with $GIT_EDITOR upon 'git
commit -e'), and in some environments lines in a text file are
terminated with CRLF. Existing strbuf_getline() knows to read a
single line and then strip the terminating byte from the result, but
it is handy to have a version that is more tailored for a "text"
input that takes both '\n' and '\r\n' as line terminator (aka
<newline> in POSIX lingo) and returns the body of the line after
stripping <newline>.

Recently reimplemented "git am" uses such a function implemented
privately; move it to strbuf.[ch] and make it available for others.

Note that we do not blindly replace calls to strbuf_getline() that
uses LF as the line terminator with calls to strbuf_getline_crlf()
and this is very much deliberate. Some callers may want to treat an
incoming line that ends with CR (and terminated with LF) to have a
payload that includes the final CR, and such a blind replacement
will result in misconversion when done without code audit.

then:

1. We will fail to clean up the state directory, leaving

--abort" doesn't work, because it calls "gc --auto"!).

2. In some cases, we may return a bogus exit code from

config.mak.uname: support MSys2

For a long time, Git for Windows lagged behind Git's 2.x releases because
the Git for Windows developers wanted to let that big jump coincide with
a well-needed jump away from MSys to MSys2.

To understand why this is such a big issue, it needs to be noted that
many parts of Git are not written in portable C, but instead Git relies
on a POSIX shell and Perl to be available.

To support the scripts, Git for Windows has to ship a minimal POSIX
emulation layer with Bash and Perl thrown in, and when the Git for
Windows effort started in August 2007, this developer settled on using
MSys, a stripped down version of Cygwin. Consequently, the original name
of the project was "msysGit" (which, sadly, caused a *lot* of confusion
because few Windows users know about MSys, and even less care).

To compile the C code of Git for Windows, MSys was used, too: it sports
two versions of the GNU C Compiler: one that links implicitly to the
POSIX emulation layer, and another one that targets the plain Win32 API
(with a few convenience functions thrown in). Git for Windows'
executables are built using the latter, and therefore they are really
just Win32 programs. To discern executables requiring the POSIX
emulation layer from the ones that do not, the latter are called MinGW
(Minimal GNU for Windows) when the former are called MSys executables.

This reliance on MSys incurred challenges, too, though: some of our
changes to the MSys runtime -- necessary to support Git for Windows
better -- were not accepted upstream, so we had to maintain our own
fork. Also, the MSys runtime was not developed further to support e.g.
UTF-8 or 64-bit, and apart from lacking a package management system
until much later (when mingw-get was introduced), many packages provided
by the MSys/MinGW project lag behind the respective source code
versions, in particular Bash and OpenSSL. For a while, the Git for
Windows project tried to remedy the situation by trying to build newer
versions of those packages, but the situation quickly became untenable,
especially with problems like the Heartbleed bug requiring swift action
that has nothing to do with developing Git for Windows further.

Happily, in the meantime the MSys2 project (https://msys2.github.io/)
emerged, and was chosen to be the base of the Git for Windows 2.x. Just
like MSys, MSys2 is a stripped down version of Cygwin, but it is
actively kept up-to-date with Cygwin's source code. Thereby, it already
supports Unicode internally, and it also offers the 64-bit support that
we yearned for since the beginning of the Git for Windows project.

MSys2 also ported the Pacman package management system from Arch Linux
and uses it heavily. This brings the same convenience to which Linux
users are used to from `yum` or `apt-get`, and to which MacOSX users are
used to from Homebrew or MacPorts, or BSD users from the Ports system,
to MSys2: a simple `pacman -Syu` will update all installed packages to
the newest versions currently available.

MSys2 is also *very* active, typically providing package updates
multiple times per week.

It still required a two-month effort to bring everything to a state
where Git's test suite passes, many more months until the first official
Git for Windows 2.x was released, and a couple of patches still await
their submission to the respective upstream projects. Yet without MSys2,
the modernization of Git for Windows would simply not have happened.

This commit lays the ground work to supporting MSys2-based Git builds.

lock_ref_sha1_basic: handle REF_NODEREF with invalid... Jeff King Tue, 12 Jan 2016 21:45:09 +0000 (16:45 -0500)

lock_ref_sha1_basic: handle REF_NODEREF with invalid refs

We sometimes call lock_ref_sha1_basic with REF_NODEREF
to operate directly on a symbolic ref. This is used, for
example, to move to a detached HEAD, or when updating
the contents of HEAD via checkout or symbolic-ref.

However, the first step of the function is to resolve the
refname to get the "old" sha1, and we do so without telling
resolve_ref_unsafe() that we are only interested in the
symref. As a result, we may detect a problem there not with
the symref itself, but with something it points to.

The real-world example I found (and what is used in the test
suite) is a HEAD pointing to a ref that cannot exist,
because it would cause a directory/file conflict with other
existing refs. This situation is somewhat broken, of
course, as trying to _commit_ on that HEAD would fail. But
it's not explicitly forbidden, and we should be able to move
away from it. However, neither "git checkout" nor "git
symbolic-ref" can do so. We try to take the lock on HEAD,
which is pointing to a non-existent ref. We bail from
resolve_ref_unsafe() with errno set to EISDIR, and the lock
code thinks we are attempting to create a d/f conflict.

Of course we're not. The problem is that the lock code has
no idea what level we were at when we got EISDIR, so trying
to diagnose or remove empty directories for HEAD is not
useful.

To make things even more complicated, we only get EISDIR in
the loose-ref case. If the refs are packed, the resolution
may "succeed", giving us the pointed-to ref in "refname",
but a null oid. Later, we say "ah, the null oid means we are
creating; let's make sure there is room for it", but
mistakenly check against the _resolved_ refname, not the
original.

We can fix this by making two tweaks:

1. Call resolve_ref_unsafe() with RESOLVE_REF_NO_RECURSE
when REF_NODEREF is set. This means any errors
we get will be from the orig_refname, and we can act
accordingly.

We already do this in the REF_DELETING case, but we
should do it for update, too.

2. If we do get a "refname" return from
resolve_ref_unsafe(), even with RESOLVE_REF_NO_RECURSE
it may be the name of the ref pointed-to by a symref.
We already normalize this back to orig_refname before
taking the lockfile, but we need to do so before the
null_oid check.

While we're rearranging the REF_NODEREF handling, we can
also bump the initialization of lflags to the top of the
function, where we are setting up other flags. This saves us
from having yet another conditional block on REF_NODEREF
just to set it later.

lock_ref_sha1_basic: always fill old_oid while holding... Jeff King Tue, 12 Jan 2016 21:44:39 +0000 (16:44 -0500)

lock_ref_sha1_basic: always fill old_oid while holding lock

Our basic strategy for taking a ref lock is:

1. Create $ref.lock to take the lock

2. Read the ref again while holding the lock (during which
time we know that nobody else can be updating it).

3. Compare the value we read to the expected "old_sha1"

The value we read in step (2) is returned to the caller via
the lock->old_oid field, who may use it for other purposes
(such as writing a reflog).

If we have no "old_sha1" (i.e., we are unconditionally
taking the lock), then we obviously must omit step 3. But we
_also_ omit step 2. This seems like a nice optimization, but
it means that the caller sees only whatever was left in
lock->old_oid from previous calls to resolve_ref_unsafe(),
which happened outside of the lock.

We can demonstrate this race pretty easily. Imagine you have
three commits, $one, $two, and $three. One script just flips
between $one and $two, without providing an old-sha1:

while true; do
git update-ref -m one refs/heads/foo $one
git update-ref -m two refs/heads/foo $two
done

Meanwhile, another script tries to set the value to $three,
also not using an old-sha1:

while true; do
git update-ref -m three refs/heads/foo $three
done

If these run simultaneously, we'll see a lot of lock
contention, but each of the writes will succeed some of the
time. The reflog may record movements between any of the
three refs, but we would expect it to provide a consistent
log: the "from" field of each log entry should be the same
as the "to" field of the previous one.

But if we check this:

perl -alne '
print "mismatch on line $."
if defined $last && $F[0] ne $last;
$last = $F[1];
' .git/logs/refs/heads/foo

we'll see many mismatches. Why?

Because sometimes, in the time between lock_ref_sha1_basic
filling lock->old_oid via resolve_ref_unsafe() and it taking
the lock, there may be a complete write by another process.
And the "from" field in our reflog entry will be wrong, and
will refer to an older value.

This is probably quite rare in practice. It requires writers
which do not provide an old-sha1 value, and it is a very
quick race. However, it is easy to fix: we simply perform
step (2), the read-under-lock, whether we have an old-sha1
or not. Then the value we hand back to the caller is always
atomic.

notes: allow treeish expressions as notes refMike Hommey Thu, 8 Oct 2015 02:54:43 +0000 (11:54 +0900)

notes: allow treeish expressions as notes ref

init_notes() is the main point of entry to the notes API. It ensures
that the input can be used as ref, because it needs a ref to update to
store notes tree after modifying it.

There however are many use cases where notes tree is only read, e.g.
"git log --notes=...". Any notes-shaped treeish could be used for such
purpose, but it is not allowed due to existing restriction.

Allow treeish expressions to be used in the case the notes tree is going
to be used without write "permissions". Add a flag to distinguish
whether the notes tree is intended to be used read-only, or will be
updated.

With this change, operations that use notes read-only can be fed any
notes-shaped tree-ish can be used, e.g. git log --notes=notes@{1}.

gitweb: squelch "uninitialized value" warningØyvind A. Holm Tue, 12 Jan 2016 03:31:56 +0000 (04:31 +0100)

gitweb: squelch "uninitialized value" warning

git_object() chomps $type that is read from "cat-file -t", but
it does so before checking if $type is defined, resulting in
a Perl warning in the server error log:

gitweb.cgi: Use of uninitialized value $type in scalar chomp at
[...]/gitweb.cgi line 7579., referer: [...]

when trying to access a non-existing commit, for example:

http://HOST/?p=PROJECT.git;a=commit;h=NON_EXISTING_COMMIT

Check the value in $type before chomping. This will cause us to
call href with its action parameter set to undef when formulating
the URL to redirect to, but that is harmless, as the function treats
a parameter that set to undef as if it does not exist.

checkout,clone: check return value of create_symref

It's unlikely that we would fail to create or update a
symbolic ref (especially HEAD), but if we do, we should
notice and complain. Note that there's no need to give more
details in our error message; create_symref will already
have done so.

While we're here, let's also fix a minor memory leak in

builtin/grep: add grep.fallbackToNoIndex config

Currently when git grep is used outside of a git repository without the
--no-index option git simply dies. For convenience, add a
grep.fallbackToNoIndex configuration variable. If set to true, git grep
behaves like git grep --no-index if it is run outside of a git
repository. It defaults to false, preserving the current behavior.

t0060: verify that basename() and dirname() work as expected

Unfortunately, some libgen implementations yield outcomes different
from what Git expects. For example, mingw-w64-crt provides a basename()
function, that shortens `path0/` to `path`!

So let's verify that the basename() and dirname() functions we use
conform to what Git expects.

compat/basename.c: provide a dirname() compatibility function

When there is no `libgen.h` to our disposal, we miss the `dirname()`
function. Earlier we added basename() compatibility function for
the same reason at e1c06886 (compat: add a basename() compatibility
function, 2009-05-31).

So far, we only had one user of that function: credential-cache--daemon
(which was only compiled when Unix sockets are available, anyway). But
now we also have `builtin/am.c` as user, so we need it.

Since `dirname()` is a sibling of `basename()`, we simply put our very
own `gitdirname()` implementation next to `gitbasename()` and use it
if `NO_LIBGEN_H` has been set.

Refactor skipping DOS drive prefixesJohannes Schindelin Tue, 12 Jan 2016 07:57:22 +0000 (08:57 +0100)

Refactor skipping DOS drive prefixes

Junio noticed that there is an implicit assumption in pretty much
all the code calling has_dos_drive_prefix(): it forces all of its
callsites to hardcode the knowledge that the DOS drive prefix is
always two bytes long.

While this assumption is pretty safe, we can still make the code
more readable and less error-prone by introducing a function that
skips the DOS drive prefix safely.

While at it, we change the has_dos_drive_prefix() return value: it
now returns the number of bytes to be skipped if there is a DOS
drive prefix.

Handle more file writes correctly in shared reposJohannes Schindelin Mon, 11 Jan 2016 18:35:54 +0000 (19:35 +0100)

Handle more file writes correctly in shared repos

In shared repositories, we have to be careful when writing files whose
permissions do not allow users other than the owner to write them.

In particular, we force the marks file of fast-export and the FETCH_HEAD
when fetching to be rewritten from scratch.

This commit does not touch other calls to fopen() that want to
write files:

- commands that write to working tree files (core.sharedRepository
does not affect permission bits of working tree files),
e.g. .rej file created by "apply --reject", result of applying a
previous conflict resolution by "rerere", "git merge-file".

- git am, when splitting mails (git-am correctly cleans up its directory
after finishing, so there is no need to share those files between users)

- git submodule clone, when writing the .git file, because the file
will not be overwritten

- git_terminal_prompt() in compat/terminal.c, because it is not writing to
a file at all

- git diff --output, because the output file is clearly not intended to be
shared between the users of the current repository

- git fast-import, when writing a crash report, because the reports' file
names are unique due to an embedded process ID

- mailinfo() in mailinfo.c, because the output is clearly not intended to
be shared between the users of the current repository

- check_or_regenerate_marks() in remote-testsvn.c, because this is only
used for Git's internal testing

- git fsck, when writing lost&found blobs (this should probably be
changed, but left as a low-hanging fruit for future contributors).

Note that this patch does not touch callers of write_file() and
write_file_gently(), which would benefit from the same scrutiny as
to usage in shared repositories. Most notable users are branch,
daemon, submodule & worktree, and a worrisome call in transport.c
when updating one ref (which ignores the shared flag).

t7810: correct --no-index test

GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES doesn't prevent chdir up into another directory
while looking for a repository directory if it is equal to the current
directory. Because of this, the test which claims to test the git grep
--no-index command outside of a repository actually tests it inside of a
repository. The test_must_fail assertions still pass because the git
grep only looks at untracked files and therefore no file matches, but
not because it's run outside of a repository as it was originally
intended.

Set the GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES environment variable to the parent
directory of the directory in which the git grep command is executed, to
make sure it is actually run outside of a git repository.

In addition, the && chain was broken in a couple of places in the same
test, fix that.

substitution, and is supported by POSIX. However, all but the
simplest uses become complicated quickly. In particular, embedded
command substitutions and/or the use of double quotes require
careful escaping with the backslash character.

The patch was generated by:

for _f in $(find . -name "*.sh")
do
perl -i -pe 'BEGIN{undef $/;} s/`(.+?)`/\$(\1)/smg' "${_f}"
done

and then carefully proof-read.

commit: allow editing the commit message even in shared repos

It was pointed out by Yaroslav Halchenko that the file containing the
commit message is writable only by the owner, which means that we have
to rewrite it from scratch in a shared repository.

docs: clarify that passing --depth to git-clone implies --single-branch

It is confusing to document how --depth behaves as part of the
--single-branch docs. Better move that part to the --depth docs, saying
that it implies --single-branch by default.

Expand documentation describing --signoffDavid A. Wheeler Tue, 5 Jan 2016 19:20:26 +0000 (14:20 -0500)

Expand documentation describing --signoff

Modify various document (man page) files to explain
in more detail what --signoff means.

This was inspired by https://lwn.net/Articles/669976/ where
paulj noted, "adding [the] '-s' argument to [a] git commit
doesn't really mean you have even heard of the DCO...".
Extending git's documentation will make it easier to argue
that developers understood --signoff when they use it.

reflog-walk: don't segfault on non-commit sha1's in... Dennis Kaarsemaker Tue, 5 Jan 2016 21:12:10 +0000 (22:12 +0100)

reflog-walk: don't segfault on non-commit sha1's in the reflog

git reflog (ab)uses the log machinery to display its list of log
entries. To do so it must fake commit parent information for the log
walker.

For refs in refs/heads this is no problem, as they should only ever
point to commits. Tags and other refs however can point to anything,
thus their reflog may contain non-commit objects.

To avoid segfaulting, we check whether reflog entries are commits before
feeding them to the log walker and skip any non-commits. This means that
git reflog output will be incomplete for such refs, but that's one step
up from segfaulting. A more complete solution would be to decouple git
reflog from the log walker machinery.

do_compare_entry: use already-computed pathDavid Turner Mon, 21 Dec 2015 22:34:20 +0000 (17:34 -0500)

do_compare_entry: use already-computed path

In traverse_trees, we generate the complete traverse path for a
traverse_info. Later, in do_compare_entry, we used to go do a bunch
of work to compare the traverse_info to a cache_entry's name without
computing that path. But since we already have that path, we don't
need to do all that work. Instead, we can just put the generated
path into the traverse_info, and do the comparison more directly.

We copy the path because prune_traversal might mutate `base`. This
doesn't happen in any codepaths where do_compare_entry is called,
but it's better to be safe.

This makes git checkout much faster -- about 25% on Twitter's
monorepo. Deeper directory trees are likely to benefit more than
shallower ones.
