provide a helper to free commit bufferJeff King Thu, 12 Jun 2014 22:05:37 +0000 (18:05 -0400)

provide a helper to free commit buffer

This converts two lines into one at each caller. But more
importantly, it abstracts the concept of freeing the buffer,
which will make it easier to change later.

Note that we also need to provide a "detach" mechanism for a
tricky case in index-pack. We are passed a buffer for the
object generated by processing the incoming pack. If we are
not using --strict, we just calculate the sha1 on that
buffer and return, leaving the caller to free it. But if we
are using --strict, we actually attach that buffer to an
object, pass the object to the fsck functions, and then
detach the buffer from the object again (so that the caller
can free it as usual). In this case, we don't want to free
the buffer ourselves, but just make sure it is no longer
associated with the commit.

Note that we are making the assumption here that the
attach/detach process does not impact the buffer at all
(e.g., it is never reallocated or modified). That holds true
now, and we have no plans to change that. However, as we
abstract the commit_buffer code, this dependency becomes
less obvious. So when we detach, let's also make sure that
we get back the same buffer that we gave to the
commit_buffer code.

sequencer: use logmsg_reencode in get_messageJeff King Tue, 10 Jun 2014 21:39:35 +0000 (17:39 -0400)

sequencer: use logmsg_reencode in get_message

This simplifies the code, as logmsg_reencode handles the
reencoding for us in a single call. It also means we learn
logmsg_reencode's trick of pulling the buffer from disk when
commit->buffer is NULL (we currently just silently return!).
It is doubtful this matters in practice, though, as
sequencer operations would not generally turn off
save_commit_buffer.

Note that we may be fixing a bug here. The existing code
does:

if (same_encoding(to, from))
reencode_string(buf, to, from);

That probably should have been "!same_encoding".

logmsg_reencode: return const bufferJeff King Tue, 10 Jun 2014 21:39:30 +0000 (17:39 -0400)

logmsg_reencode: return const buffer

The return value from logmsg_reencode may be either a newly
allocated buffer or a pointer to the existing commit->buffer.
We would not want the caller to accidentally free() or
modify the latter, so let's mark it as const. We can cast
away the constness in logmsg_free, but only once we have
determined that it is a free-able buffer.

do not create "struct commit" with xcallocJeff King Tue, 10 Jun 2014 21:39:11 +0000 (17:39 -0400)

do not create "struct commit" with xcalloc

In both blame and merge-recursive, we sometimes create a
"fake" commit struct for convenience (e.g., to represent the
HEAD state as if we would commit it). By allocating
ourselves rather than using alloc_commit_node, we do not
properly set the "index" field of the commit. This can
produce subtle bugs if we then use commit-slab on the
resulting commit, as we will share the "0" index with
another commit.

We can fix this by using alloc_commit_node() to allocate.
Note that we cannot free the result, as it is part of our
commit allocator. However, both cases were already leaking
the allocated commit anyway, so there's nothing to fix up.

commit: push commit_index update into alloc_commit_node

Whenever we create a commit object via lookup_commit, we
give it a unique index to be used with the commit-slab API.
The theory is that any "struct commit" we create would
follow this code path, so any such struct would get an
index. However, callers could use alloc_commit_node()
directly (and get multiple commits with index 0).

Let's push the indexing into alloc_commit_node so that it's
hard for callers to get it wrong.

alloc: include any-object allocations in alloc_report

When 2c1cbec (Use proper object allocators for unknown
object nodes too, 2007-04-16), added a special "any_object"
allocator, it never taught alloc_report to report on it. To
do so we need to add an extra type argument to the REPORT
macro, as that commit did for DEFINE_ALLOCATOR.

replace dangerous uses of strbuf_attachJeff King Tue, 10 Jun 2014 21:38:38 +0000 (17:38 -0400)

replace dangerous uses of strbuf_attach

It is not a good idea to strbuf_attach an arbitrary pointer
just because a function you are calling wants a strbuf.
Attaching implies a transfer of memory ownership; if anyone
were to modify or release the resulting strbuf, we would
free() the pointer, leading to possible problems:

1. Other users of the original pointer might access freed
memory.

2. The pointer might not be the start of a malloc'd
area, so calling free() on it in the first place would
be wrong.

In the two cases modified here, we are fortunate that nobody
touches the strbuf once it is attached, but it is an
accident waiting to happen. Since the previous commit,
commit_tree and friends take a pointer/buf pair, so we can
just do away with the strbufs entirely.

commit_tree: take a pointer/len pair rather than a const strbuf

While strbufs are pretty common throughout our code, it is
more flexible for functions to take a pointer/len pair than
a strbuf. It's easy to turn a strbuf into such a pair (by
dereferencing its members), but less easy to go the other
way (you can strbuf_attach, but that has implications about
memory ownership).

This patch teaches commit_tree (and its associated callers
and sub-functions) to take such a pair for the commit
message rather than a strbuf. This makes passing the buffer
around slightly more verbose, but means we can get rid of
some dangerous strbuf_attach calls in the next patch.

t5537: re-drop http testsJeff King Fri, 30 May 2014 01:34:19 +0000 (21:34 -0400)

t5537: re-drop http tests

These were originally removed by 0232852 (t5537: move
http tests out to t5539, 2014-02-13). However, they were
accidentally re-added in 1ddb4d7 (Merge branch
'nd/upload-pack-shallow', 2014-03-21).

This looks like an error in manual conflict resolution.
Here's what happened:

1. v1.9.0 shipped with the http tests in t5537.

2. We realized that this caused problems, and built
0232852 on top to move the tests to their own file.
This fix made it into v1.9.1.

3. We later had another fix in nd/upload-pack-shallow that
also touched t5537. It was built directly on v1.9.0.

When we merged nd/upload-pack-shallow to master, we got a
conflict; it was built on a version with the http tests, but
we had since removed them. The correct resolution was to
drop the http tests and keep the new ones, but instead we
kept everything.

Not all shells subject the prompt string to parameter expansion. Test
whether the shell will expand the value of PS1, and use the result to
control whether raw ref names are included directly in PS1.

This fixes a regression introduced in commit 8976500 ("git-prompt.sh:

by default, but that commit assumed it did. The bug resulted in
prompts containing the literal string '${__git_ps1_branch_name}'

git-gui: tolerate major version changes when comparing the git version

Since git 2.0.0 starting git gui in a submodule using a gitfile fails with
the following error:

No working directory ../../../<path>

couldn't change working directory
to "../../../<path>": no such file or
directory

This is because "git rev-parse --show-toplevel" is only run when git gui
sees a git version of at least 1.7.0 (which is the version in which the
--show-toplevel option was introduced). But "package vsatisfies" returns
false when the major version changes, which is not what we want here.

Fix that for both places where the git version is checked using vsatisfies
by appending a '-' to the version number. This tells vsatisfies that a
change of the major version is not considered to be a problem, as long as
the new major version is larger. This is done for both the place that
caused the reported bug and another spot where the git version is tested
for another feature.

Older versions of Git before v1.7.10 did not DWIM

$ git pull $URL for-linus

to the tag "tags/for-linus" and the users were required to say

$ git pull $URL tags/for-linus

instead. Because newer versions of Git works either way,
request-pull used to show tags/for-linus when asked

$ git request-pull origin/master $URL for-linus

The recent updates broke this and in the output we see "for-linus"
without the "tags/" prefix.

As v1.7.10 is more than 2 years old, this should matter very little

git-p4: format-patch to diff-tree change breaks binary patches

When applying binary patches a full index is required. format-patch
already handles this, but diff-tree needs '--full-index' argument
to always output full index. When git-p4 runs git-apply to test
the patch, git-apply rejects the patch due to abbreviated blob
object names. This is the error message git-apply emits in this
case:

error: cannot apply binary patch to '<filename>' without full index line

Makefile: default to -lcurl when no CURL_CONFIG or CURLDIR

The original implementation of CURL_CONFIG support did not match the
original behavior of using -lcurl when CURLDIR was not set. This broke
implementations that were lacking curl-config but did have libcurl
installed along system libraries, such as MSysGit. In other words, the
assumption that curl-config is always installed was incorrect.

Instead, if CURL_CONFIG is empty or returns an empty result (e.g. due
to curl-config being missing), use the old behavior of falling back to
-lcurl.

setup: fix windows path buffer over-steppingMartin Erik Werner Thu, 24 Apr 2014 13:06:09 +0000 (15:06 +0200)

setup: fix windows path buffer over-stepping

Fix a buffer over-stepping issue triggered by providing an absolute path
that is similar to the work tree path.

abspath_part_inside_repo() may currently increment the path pointer by
offset_1st_component() + wtlen, which is too much, since
offset_1st_component() is a subset of wtlen.

For the *nix-style prefix '/', this does (by luck) not cause any issues,
since offset_1st_component() is 1 and there will always be a '/' or '\0'
that can "absorb" this.

In the case of DOS-style prefixes though, the offset_1st_component() is
3 and this can potentially over-step the string buffer. For example if

work_tree = "c:/r"
path = "c:/rl"

Then wtlen is 4, and incrementing the path pointer by (3 + 4) would
end up 2 bytes outside a string buffer of length 6.

Similarly if

work_tree = "c:/r"
path = "c:/rl/d/a"

Then (since the loop starts by also incrementing the pointer one step),
this would mean that the function would miss checking if "c:/rl/d" could
be the work_tree, arguably this is unlikely though, since it would only
be possible with symlinks on windows.

Fix this by simply avoiding to increment by offset_1st_component() and
wtlen at the same time.

ewah_bitmap.c: do not assume size_t and eword_t are the same size

When buffer_grow changes the size of the buffer using realloc,
it first computes and saves the rlw pointer's offset into the
buffer using (uint8_t *) math before the realloc but then
restores it using (eword_t *) math.

In order to do this it's necessary to convert the (uint8_t *)
offset into an (eword_t *) offset. It was doing this by
dividing by the sizeof(size_t). Unfortunately sizeof(size_t)
is not same as sizeof(eword_t) on all platforms.

This causes illegal memory accesses and other bad things to
happen when attempting to use bitmaps on those platforms.

Fix this by dividing by the sizeof(eword_t) instead which
will always be correct for all platforms.

git-prompt.sh: don't put unsanitized branch names in $PS1

Both bash and zsh subject the value of PS1 to parameter expansion,
command substitution, and arithmetic expansion. Rather than include
the raw, unescaped branch name in PS1 when running in two- or
three-argument mode, construct PS1 to reference a variable that holds
the branch name. Because the shells do not recursively expand, this
avoids arbitrary code execution by specially-crafted branch names such
as '$(IFS=_;cmd=sudo_rm_-rf_/;$cmd)'.

run_external_diff: use an argv_array for the command line

We currently generate the command-line for the external
command using a fixed-length array of size 10. But if there
is a rename, we actually need 11 elements (10 items, plus a
NULL), and end up writing a random NULL onto the stack.

Rather than bump the limit, let's just use an argv_array, which
makes this sort of error impossible.

Git 2.0: git svn: Set default --prefix='origin/' if --prefix is not given

git-svn by default puts its Subversion-tracking refs directly in
refs/remotes/*. This runs counter to Git's convention of using
refs/remotes/$remote/* for storing remote-tracking branches.

Furthermore, combining git-svn with regular git remotes run the risk of
clobbering refs under refs/remotes (e.g. if you have a git remote
called "tags" with a "v1" branch, it will overlap with the git-svn's
tracking branch for the "v1" tag from Subversion.

Even though the git-svn refs stored in refs/remotes/* are not "proper"
remote-tracking branches (since they are not covered by a proper git
remote's refspec), they clearly represent a similar concept, and would
benefit from following the same convention.

For example, if git-svn tracks Subversion branch "foo" at
refs/remotes/foo, and you create a local branch refs/heads/foo to add
some commits to be pushed back to Subversion (using "git svn dcommit),
then it is clearly unhelpful of Git to throw

warning: refname 'foo' is ambiguous.

every time you checkout, rebase, or otherwise interact with the branch.

The existing workaround for this is to supply the --prefix=quux/ to
git svn init/clone, so that git-svn's tracking branches end up in
refs/remotes/quux/* instead of refs/remotes/*. However, encouraging
users to specify --prefix to work around a design flaw in git-svn is
suboptimal, and not a long term solution to the problem. Instead,
git-svn should default to use a non-empty prefix that saves
unsuspecting users from the inconveniences described above.

This patch will only affect newly created git-svn setups, as the
--prefix option only applies to git svn init (and git svn clone).
Existing git-svn setups will continue with their existing (lack of)
prefix. Also, if anyone somehow prefers git-svn's old layout, they
can recreate that by explicitly passing an empty prefix (--prefix "")
on the git svn init/clone command line.

The patch changes the default value for --prefix from "" to "origin/",
updates the git-svn manual page, and fixes the fallout in the git-svn
testcases.

(Note that this patch might be easier to review using the --word-diff
and --word-diff-regex=. diff options.)

substitution instead of using the backquotes `...`.

The backquoted form is the traditional method for command
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
sed -i 's@`\(.*\)`@$(\1)@g' ${_f}
done

and then carefully proof-read.
