t5562: do not depend on /dev/zero
Revert "t5562: replace /dev/zero with a pipe from generate_zero_bytes"
Some expected failures of git-http-backend leaves running its children
(receive-pack or upload-pack) which still hold opened descriptors
to act.err and with some probability they live long enough to write
there their failure messages after next test has already truncated
the files. This causes occasional failures of the test script.
Avoid the issue by using separated output and error file for each test,
apprending the test number to their name.

tests: teach the test-tool to generate NUL bytes and use it
In cc95bc2025 (t5562: replace /dev/zero with a pipe from
generate_zero_bytes, 2019-02-09), we replaced usage of /dev/zero (which
is not available on NonStop, apparently) by a Perl script snippet to
generate NUL bytes.
Sadly, it does not seem to work on NonStop, as t5562 reportedly hangs.
Worse, this also hangs in the Ubuntu 16.04 agents of the CI builds on
Azure Pipelines: for some reason, the Perl script snippet that is run
via `generate_zero_bytes` in t5562's 'CONTENT_LENGTH overflow ssite_t'
test case tries to write out an infinite amount of NUL bytes unless a
broken pipe is encountered, that snippet never encounters the broken
pipe, and keeps going until the build times out.
Oddly enough, this does not reproduce on the Windows and macOS agents,
nor in a local Ubuntu 18.04.
This developer tried for a day to figure out the exact circumstances
under which this hang happens, to no avail, the details remain a
mystery.
In the end, though, what counts is that this here change incidentally
fixes that hang (maybe also on NonStop?). Even more positively, it gets
rid of yet another unnecessary Perl invocation.

It was reported [1] that NonStop platform does not have /dev/zero.
The test uses /dev/zero as a dummy input. Passing case (http-backed
failed because of too big input size) should not be reading anything
from it. If http-backend would erroneously try to read any data
returning EOF probably would be even safer than providing some
meaningless data.
Replace /dev/zero with /dev/null to avoid issues with platforms which do
not have /dev/zero.

mingw: safe-guard a bit more against getenv() problems
Running up to v2.21.0, we fixed two bugs that were made prominent by the
Windows-specific change to retain copies of only the 30 latest getenv()
calls' returned strings, invalidating any copies of previous getenv()
calls' return values.
While this really shines a light onto bugs of the form where we hold
onto getenv()'s return values without copying them, it is also a real
problem for users.
And even if Jeff King's patches merged via 773e408881 (Merge branch
'jk/save-getenv-result', 2019-01-29) provide further work on that front,
we are far from done. Just one example: on Windows, we unset environment
variables when spawning new processes, which potentially invalidates
strings that were previously obtained via getenv(), and therefore we
have to duplicate environment values that are somehow involved in
spawning new processes (e.g. GIT_MAN_VIEWER in show_man_page()).
We do not have a chance to investigate, let address, all of those issues
in time for v2.21.0, so let's at least help Windows users by increasing
the number of getenv() calls' return values that are kept valid. The
number 64 was determined by looking at the average number of getenv()
calls per process in the entire test suite run on Windows (which is
around 40) and then adding a bit for good measure. And it is a power of
two (which would have hit yesterday's theme perfectly).

Many of our grab_* functions, which parse the object content, take a
buf/sz pair of the object bytes. However, the functions which actually
parse the buffers (like find_wholine() and find_subpos()) never look at
"sz", and instead use functions like strchr() and strchrnul() that
assume the result is NUL-terminated.
This is OK in practice (and common for Git's parsing code), since we
always allocate an extra NUL when loading an object into memory (and
likewise, we are OK with stopping parsing if a commit or tag contains an
embedded NUL).
Let's drop these extra "sz" parameters, as they are misleading about how
the functions intend to access the buffer. We can drop from both the
functions mentioned above, which in turn lets us drop from their
callers, cascading all the way up to the top-level grab_values().

Let's get rid of these misleading "struct object" parameters. It's
possible we may want them in the future (e.g., to generate error

pack-objects: drop unused parameter from oe_map_new_pack()
Since 43fa44fa3b (pack-objects: move in_pack out of struct object_entry,

rather than as a pointer. When we see a new pack that has no allocated
index, we fall back to generating an array of pointers by calling
oe_map_new_pack().
Perhaps counter-intuitively, that function does not need to actually see
our new index-less pack. It only allocates and populates the array with
the existing packs, after which oe_set_in_pack() actually adds the new
pack to the array.

The git-prune command checks reachability by doing a traversal, and then
checking whether a given object exists in the global object hash. This
can yield false positives if any other part of the code had to create an
object struct for some reason. It's not clear whether this is even
possible, but it's more robust to rely on something a little more
concrete: the SEEN flag set by our traversal.
Note that there is a slight possibility of regression here, as we're
relying on mark_reachable_objects() to consistently set the flag.
However, it has always done so, and we're already relying on that fact
in prune_shallow(), which is called as part of git-prune. So this is
making these two parts of the prune operation more consistent.

Pruning generally has to traverse the whole commit graph in order to
see which objects are reachable. This is the exact problem that
reachability bitmaps were meant to solve, so let's use them (if they're
available, of course).
Here are timings on git.git:
Test HEAD^ HEAD
------------------------------------------------------------------------
5304.6: prune with bitmaps 3.65(3.56+0.09) 1.01(0.92+0.08) -72.3%
And on linux.git:
Test HEAD^ HEAD
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
5304.6: prune with bitmaps 35.05(34.79+0.23) 3.00(2.78+0.21) -91.4%
The tests show a pretty optimal case, as we'll have just repacked and
should have pretty good coverage of all refs with our bitmaps. But
that's actually pretty realistic: normally prune is run via "gc" right
after repacking.
A few notes on the implementation:
- the change is actually in reachable.c, so it would improve
reachability traversals by "reflog expire --stale-fix", as well.
Those aren't performed regularly, though (a normal "git gc" doesn't
use --stale-fix), so they're not really worth measuring. There's a
low chance of regressing that caller, since the use of bitmaps is
totally transparent from the caller's perspective.
- The bitmap case could actually get away without creating a "struct
object", and instead the caller could just look up each object id in
the bitmap result. However, this would be a marginal improvement in
runtime, and it would make the callers much more complicated. They'd
have to handle both the bitmap and non-bitmap cases separately, and
in the case of git-prune, we'd also have to tweak prune_shallow(),
which relies on our SEEN flags.
- Because we do create real object structs, we go through a few
contortions to create ones of the right type. This isn't strictly
necessary (lookup_unknown_object() would suffice), but it's more
memory efficient to use the correct types, since we already know
them.

The general strategy of "git prune" is to do a full reachability walk,
then for each loose object see if we found it in our walk. But if we
don't have any loose objects, we don't need to do the expensive walk in
the first place.
This patch postpones that walk until the first time we need to see its
results.
Note that this is really a specific case of a more general optimization,
which is that we could traverse only far enough to find the object under
consideration (i.e., stop the traversal when we find it, then pick up
again when asked about the next object, etc). That could save us in some
instances from having to do a full walk. But it's actually a bit tricky
to do with our traversal code, and you'd need to do a full walk anyway
if you have even a single unreachable object (which you generally do, if
any objects are actually left after running git-repack).
So in practice this lazy-load of the full walk catches one easy but
common case (i.e., you've just repacked via git-gc, and there's nothing
unreachable).
The perf script is fairly contrived, but it does show off the
improvement:
Test HEAD^ HEAD
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
5304.4: prune with no objects 3.66(3.60+0.05) 0.00(0.00+0.00) -100.0%
and would let us know if we accidentally regress this optimization.
Note also that we need to take special care with prune_shallow(), which
relies on us having performed the traversal. So this optimization can
only kick in for a non-shallow repository. Since this is easy to get
wrong and is not covered by existing tests, let's add an extra test to
t5304 that covers this case explicitly.

workaround, making use of magic pre-processor constants, which works in

will also work around it, but let's instead break up the "EOF" and the

An earlier version of this patch[2] mitigated the issue by breaking

broke up the "EOF" and "{}" block. Putting e.g. "echo &&" between the

read-cache.c: fix writing "link" index ext with null base oid
Since commit 7db118303a (unpack_trees: fix breakage when o->src_index !=
o->dst_index - 2018-04-23) and changes in merge code to use separate
index_state for source and destination, when doing a merge with split
index activated, we may run into this line in unpack_trees():
This is by itself not wrong. But this split index information is not
fully populated (and it's only so when move_cache_to_base_index() is
called, aka force splitting the index, or loading index_state from a
file). Both "base_oid" and "base" in this case remain null.
So when writing the main index down, we link to this index with null
oid (default value after init_split_index()), which also means "no split
index" internally. This triggers an incorrect base index refresh:
warning: could not freshen shared index '.../sharedindex.0{40}'
This patch makes sure we will not refresh null base_oid (because the
file is never there). It also makes sure not to write "link" extension
with null base_oid in the first place (no point having it at
all). Read code already has protection against null base_oid.
There is also another side fix in remove_split_index() that causes a
crash when doing "git update-index --no-split-index" when base_oid in
the index file is null. In this case we will not load
istate->split_index->base but we dereference it anyway and are rewarded
with a segfault. This should not happen anymore, but it's still wrong to
dereference a potential NULL pointer, especially when we do check for
NULL pointer in the next code.

utf8: handle systems that don't write BOM for UTF-16
When serializing UTF-16 (and UTF-32), there are three possible ways to
write the stream. One can write the data with a BOM in either big-endian
or little-endian format, or one can write the data without a BOM in
big-endian format.
Most systems' iconv implementations choose to write it with a BOM in
some endianness, since this is the most foolproof, and it is resistant
to misinterpretation on Windows, where UTF-16 and the little-endian
serialization are very common. For compatibility with Windows and to
avoid accidental misuse there, Git always wants to write UTF-16 with a
BOM, and will refuse to read UTF-16 without it.
However, musl's iconv implementation writes UTF-16 without a BOM,
relying on the user to interpret it as big-endian. This causes t0028 and
the related functionality to fail, since Git won't read the file without
a BOM.
Add a Makefile and #define knob, ICONV_OMITS_BOM, that can be set if the
iconv implementation has this behavior. When set, Git will write a BOM
manually for UTF-16 and UTF-32 and then force the data to be written in
UTF-16BE or UTF-32BE. We choose big-endian behavior here because the
tests use the raw "UTF-16" encoding, which will be big-endian when the
implementation requires this knob to be set.
Update the tests to detect this case and write test data with an added
BOM if necessary. Always write the BOM in the tests in big-endian
format, since all iconv implementations that omit a BOM must use
big-endian serialization according to the Unicode standard.
Preserve the existing behavior for systems which do not have this knob
enabled, since they may use optimized implementations, including
defaulting to the native endianness, which may improve performance.

options and the values of various '*_PORT' environment variables are
valid numbers. With certain shells, at least with dash (upstream and
in Ubuntu 14.04) and mksh, this led to various undesired behaviors:
# error message in case of a valid number
$ ~/src/dash/src/dash ./t3903-stash.sh --stress=8
error: --stress=<N> requires the number of jobs to run
# not the expected error message
$ ~/src/dash/src/dash ./t3903-stash.sh --stress=foo
./t3903-stash.sh: 238: test: Illegal number: foo
# no error message at all?!
$ mksh ./t3903-stash.sh --stress=foo
$ echo $?
0
Some other shells, e.g. Bash (even in posix mode), ksh, dash in Ubuntu
16.04 or later, are apparently happy to accept '^' just as well.
sequencer: make sign_off_header a file local symbol
Commit d0aaa46fd3 ("commit: move empty message checks to libgit",
2017-11-10) removes the last use of 'sign_off_header' outside of
the "sequencer.c" source file. Remove the extern declaration from
the header file and mark the definition of the symbol with the
static keyword.

During a review of a patch, we noticed that we use our own imitation
of 'yes' with the limit of 99 lines. It is very tempting to lift this
arbitrary limit, but the limit is there for a reason.
Add an in-code comment to prevent future developers from wasting
their time.
"git checkout [<tree-ish>] <pathspec>" started reporting the number
of paths that have got updated recently, but the same messages were
given when "git checkout -m <pathspec>" to unresolve conflicts that
have just been resolved. The message now reports these unresolved
paths separately from the paths that are checked out from the index.
