Prevent buffer overflows when path is too long

Some buffers created with PATH_MAX length are not checked when being
written, and can overflow if PATH_MAX is not big enough to hold the
path.

Replace those buffers by strbufs so that their size is automatically
grown if necessary. They are created as static local variables to avoid
reallocating memory on each call. Note that prefix_filename() returns
this static buffer so each callers should copy or use the string
immediately (this is currently true).

The "--tags" option to "git fetch" used to be literally a synonym to
a "refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*" refspec, which meant that (1) as an
explicit refspec given from the command line, it silenced the lazy
"git fetch" default that is configured, and (2) also as an explicit
refspec given from the command line, it interacted with "--prune"
to remove any tag that the remote we are fetching from does not
have.

This demotes it to an option; with it, we fetch all tags in
addition to what would be fetched without the option, and it does
not interact with the decision "--prune" makes to see what
remote-tracking refs the local has are missing the remote
counterpart.

diff: don't read index when --no-index is given

git diff --no-index ... currently reads the index, during setup, when
calling gitmodules_config(). This results in worse performance when the
index is not actually needed. This patch avoids calling
gitmodules_config() when the --no-index option is given. The times for
executing "git diff --no-index" in the WebKit repository are improved as
follows:

Test HEAD~3 HEAD
------------------------------------------------------------------
4001.1: diff --no-index 0.24(0.15+0.09) 0.01(0.00+0.00) -95.8%

An additional improvement of this patch is that "git diff --no-index" no
longer breaks when the index file is corrupt, which makes it possible to
use it for investigating the broken repository.

To improve the possible usage as investigation tool for broken
repositories, setup_git_directory_gently() is also not called when the
--no-index option is given.

Also add a test to guard against future breakages, and a performance
test to show the improvements.

builtin/replace: unset read_replace_refs

When checking to see if some objects are of the same type
and when displaying the type of objects, git replace uses
the sha1_object_info() function.

Unfortunately this function by default respects replace
refs, so instead of the type of a replaced object, it
gives the type of the replacement object which might
be different.

To fix this bug, and because git replace should work at a
level before replacement takes place, let's unset the
read_replace_refs global variable at the beginning of

And in other cases it might be interesting to also show the

'short': this is the same as when no --format
option is used, that is only the sha1 of

'medium': this also lists the sha1 of the

cat-file: handle --batch format with missing type/sizeJeff King Wed, 11 Dec 2013 23:15:50 +0000 (07:15 +0800)

cat-file: handle --batch format with missing type/size

Commit 98e2092 taught cat-file to stream blobs with --batch,
which requires that we look up the object type before
loading it into memory. As a result, we now print the
object header from information in sha1_object_info, and the
actual contents from the read_sha1_file. We double-check
that the information we printed in the header matches the
content we are about to show.

Later, commit 93d2a60 allowed custom header lines for
--batch, and commit 5b08640 made type lookups optional. As a
result, specifying a header line without the type or size
means that we will not look up those items at all.

This causes our double-checking to erroneously die with an
error; we think the type or size has changed, when in fact
it was simply left at "0".

For the size, we can fix this by only doing the consistency
double-check when we have retrieved the size via
sha1_object_info. In the case that we have not retrieved the
value, that means we also did not print it, so there is
nothing for us to check that we are consistent with.

We could do the same for the type. However, besides our
consistency check, we also care about the type in deciding
whether to stream or not. So instead of handling the case
where we do not know the type, this patch instead makes sure
that we always trigger a type lookup when we are printing,
so that even a format without the type will stream as we
would in the normal case.

cat-file: pass expand_data to print_object_or_die

We currently individually pass the sha1, type, and size
fields calculated by sha1_object_info. However, if we pass
the whole struct, the called function can make more
intelligent decisions about which fields were actually
filled by sha1_object_info.

This patch takes that first refactoring step, passing the
whole struct, so further patches can make those decisions
with less noise in their diffs. There should be no
functional change to this patch (aside from a minor typo fix
in the error message).

As a side effect, we can rename the local variables in the
function to "type" and "size", since the names are no longer
taken.

rebase: use reflog to find common base with upstreamJohn Keeping Mon, 9 Dec 2013 23:16:16 +0000 (23:16 +0000)

rebase: use reflog to find common base with upstream

Commit 15a147e (rebase: use @{upstream} if no upstream specified,
2011-02-09) says:

Make it default to 'git rebase @{upstream}'. That is also what
'git pull [--rebase]' defaults to, so it only makes sense that
'git rebase' defaults to the same thing.

but that isn't actually the case. Since commit d44e712 (pull: support
rebased upstream + fetch + pull --rebase, 2009-07-19), pull has actually
chosen the most recent reflog entry which is an ancestor of the current
branch if it can find one.

Add a '--fork-point' argument to git-rebase that can be used to trigger
this behaviour. This option is turned on by default if no non-option
arguments are specified on the command line, otherwise we treat an
upstream specified on the command-line literally.

the port number, so change host into hostandport here.

connect.c: refactor url parsing

Make the function is_local() in transport.c public, rename it into
url_is_local_not_ssh() and use it in both transport.c and connect.c

Use a protocol "local" for URLs for the local file system.

One note about using file:// under Windows:

The (absolute) path on Unix like system typically starts with "/".
When the host is empty, it can be omitted, so that a shell scriptlet
url=file://$pwd
will give a URL like "file:///home/user/repo".

Windows does not have the same concept of a root directory located in "/".
When parsing the URL allow "file://C:/user/repo"
(even if RFC1738 indicates that "file:///C:/user/repo" should be used).

git fetch: support host:/~repoTorsten Bögershausen Thu, 28 Nov 2013 19:49:38 +0000 (20:49 +0100)

git fetch: support host:/~repo

The documentation (in urls.txt) says that

"ssh://host:/~repo",
"host:/~repo" or
"host:~repo"

specify the repository "repo" in the home directory at "host".

This has not been working for "host:/~repo".

Before commit 356bec "Support [address] in URLs", the comparison
"url != hostname" could be used to determine if the URL had a scheme
or not: "ssh://host/host" != "host".

However, after 356bec "[::1]" was converted into "::1", yielding
url != hostname as well. To fix this regression, don't use
"if (url != hostname)", but look at the separator instead.

Rename the variable "c" into "separator" to make it easier to read.

git_connect() uses start_command() to invoke the command; consequently,
the limits of the system still apply, but are diagnosed only at execve()
time. But these limits are more lenient than the 1K that git_connect()

rev-parse: be more careful with munging argumentsJeff King Fri, 6 Dec 2013 22:07:52 +0000 (17:07 -0500)

rev-parse: be more careful with munging arguments

When rev-parse looks at whether an argument like "foo..bar" or
"foobar^@" is a difference or parent-shorthand, it internally
munges the arguments so that it can pass the individual rev
arguments to get_sha1(). However, we do not consistently un-munge
the result.

For cases where we do not match (e.g., "doesnotexist..HEAD"), we
would then want to try to treat the argument as a filename.
try_difference gets() this right, and always unmunges in this case.
However, try_parent_shorthand() never unmunges, leading to incorrect
error messages, or even incorrect results:

$ git rev-parse foobar^@
foobar
fatal: ambiguous argument 'foobar': unknown revision or path not in the working tree.
Use '--' to separate paths from revisions, like this:
'git <command> [<revision>...] -- [<file>...]'

$ >foobar
$ git rev-parse foobar^@
foobar

For cases where we do match, neither function unmunges. This does
not currently matter, since we are done with the argument. However,
a future patch will do further processing, and this prepares for
it. In addition, it's simply a confusing interface for some cases to
modify the const argument, and others not to.

rev-parse: correctly diagnose revision errors before "--"

Rev-parse understands that a "--" may separate revisions and
filenames, and that anything after the "--" is taken as-is.
However, it does not understand that anything before the
token must be a revision (which is the usual rule
implemented by the setup_revisions parser).

Since rev-parse prefers revisions to files when parsing
before the "--", we end up with the correct result (if such
an argument is a revision, we parse it as one, and if it is
not, it is an error either way). However, we misdiagnose
the errors:

$ git rev-parse foobar -- >/dev/null
fatal: ambiguous argument 'foobar': unknown revision or path not in the working tree.
Use '--' to separate paths from revisions, like this:
'git <command> [<revision>...] -- [<file>...]'

$ >foobar
$ git rev-parse foobar -- >/dev/null
fatal: bad flag '--' used after filename

In both cases, we should know that the real error is that
"foobar" is meant to be a revision, but could not be
resolved.

difftool: display the number of files in the diff queue in the prompt

When --prompt option is set, git-difftool displays a prompt for each
modified file to be viewed in an external diff program. At that
point, it could be useful to display a counter and the total number
of files in the diff queue.

Below is the current difftool prompt for the first of 5 modified files:

Viewing: 'diff.c'
Launch 'vimdiff' [Y/n]:

Consider the modified prompt:

Viewing (1/5): 'diff.c'
Launch 'vimdiff' [Y/n]:

The current GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF mechanism does not tell the number of
paths in the diff queue nor the current counter. To make this
"counter/total" info available for GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF programs
without breaking existing ones by doing the following:

- Keep track of the number of paths shown so far in diff_options;

- Export two new environment variables from run_external_diff() to
show the total number of paths (from diff_queue_struct) and the
current value of the counter (from diff_options); and

- Update git-difftool--helper to use these two environment variables.

pathspec.c: support adding prefix magic to a pathspec with mnemonic magic

Back in 233c3e6 (parse_pathspec: preserve prefix length via
PATHSPEC_PREFIX_ORIGIN - 2013-07-14), parse_pathspec() is taught to
save prefix length as a dynamic magic. This is needed when the
pathspec is passed to another process and and prefix lenght would be
lost.

Back then we support two cases. If the pathspec is normal, e.g. "abc",
we simply add the prefix to become ":(prefix:2)abc". If the pathspec
contains long magic, e.g. ":(foo,bar)abc" then we turn it to
":(foo,bar,prefix:2)abc". We do not support prefixing on short form,
because the only supported mnemonic '/' disappears after the the
preprocessing steps.

With the introduction of exclude magic with mnemonic '!', we need to
add support for the short form case so that ':!abc' becomes
':(exclude,prefix:2)abc'. Without this, it will break

git-config used a static match array to hold the matches we want to

This in particular fixes the symptoms git-svn had when storing large
numbers of svn-remote.*.added-placeholder entries in the config file.

While the tests are rather more paranoid than just --unset and
--replace-all, the other operations already worked. Indeed git-svn's

pack-objects: name pack files after trailer hashJeff King Thu, 5 Dec 2013 20:28:07 +0000 (15:28 -0500)

pack-objects: name pack files after trailer hash

Our current scheme for naming packfiles is to calculate the
sha1 hash of the sorted list of objects contained in the
packfile. This gives us a unique name, so we are reasonably
sure that two packs with the same name will contain the same
objects.

It does not, however, tell us that two such packs have the
exact same bytes. This makes things awkward if we repack the
same set of objects. Due to run-to-run variations, the bytes
may not be identical (e.g., changed zlib or git versions,
different source object reuse due to new packs in the
repository, or even different deltas due to races during a
multi-threaded delta search).

In theory, this could be helpful to a program that cares
that the packfile contains a certain set of objects, but
does not care about the particular representation. In
practice, no part of git makes use of that, and in many
cases it is potentially harmful. For example, if a dumb http
client fetches the .idx file, it must be sure to get the
exact .pack that matches it. Similarly, a partial transfer
of a .pack file cannot be safely resumed, as the actual
bytes may have changed. This could also affect a local
client which opened the .idx and .pack files, closes the
.pack file (due to memory or file descriptor limits), and
then re-opens a changed packfile.

In all of these cases, git can detect the problem, as we
have the sha1 of the bytes themselves in the pack trailer
(which we verify on transfer), and the .idx file references
the trailer from the matching packfile. But it would be
simpler and more efficient to actually get the correct
bytes, rather than noticing the problem and having to
restart the operation.

This patch simply uses the pack trailer sha1 as the pack
name. It should be similarly unique, but covers the exact
representation of the objects. Other parts of git should not
care, as the pack name is returned by pack-objects and is
essentially opaque.

One test needs to be updated, because it actually corrupts a
pack and expects that re-packing the corrupted bytes will

commit -v: strip diffs and submodule shortlogs from... Jens Lehmann Thu, 5 Dec 2013 19:44:14 +0000 (20:44 +0100)

commit -v: strip diffs and submodule shortlogs from the commit message

When using the '-v' option of "git commit" the diff added to the commit
message temporarily for editing is stripped off after the user exited the
editor by searching for "\ndiff --git " and truncating the commmit message
there if it is found.

But this approach has two problems:

- when the commit message itself contains a line starting with
"diff --git" it will be truncated there prematurely; and

- when the "diff.submodule" setting is set to "log", the diff may
start with "Submodule <hash1>..<hash2>", which will be left in
the commit message while it shouldn't.

Fix that by introducing a special scissor separator line starting with the
comment character ('#' or the core.commentChar config if set) followed by
two lines describing what it is for. The scissor line - which will not be
translated - is used to reliably detect the start of the diff so it can be
chopped off from the commit message, no matter what the user enters there.

Turn a known test failure fixed by this change into a successful test;
also add one for a diff starting with a submodule log and another one for
proper handling of the comment char.

replace {pre,suf}fixcmp() with {starts,ends}_with()Christian Couder Sat, 30 Nov 2013 20:55:40 +0000 (21:55 +0100)

replace {pre,suf}fixcmp() with {starts,ends}_with()

Leaving only the function definitions and declarations so that any
new topic in flight can still make use of the old functions, replace
existing uses of the prefixcmp() and suffixcmp() with new API
functions.

The change can be recreated by mechanically applying this:

$ git grep -l -e prefixcmp -e suffixcmp -- \*.c |
grep -v strbuf\\.c |
xargs perl -pi -e '
s|!prefixcmp\(|starts_with\(|g;
s|prefixcmp\(|!starts_with\(|g;
s|!suffixcmp\(|ends_with\(|g;
s|suffixcmp\(|!ends_with\(|g;
'

on the result of preparatory changes in this series.

strbuf: introduce starts_with() and ends_with()Christian Couder Sun, 1 Dec 2013 07:49:16 +0000 (08:49 +0100)

strbuf: introduce starts_with() and ends_with()

prefixcmp() and suffixcmp() share the common "cmp" suffix that
typically are used to name functions that can be used for ordering,
but they can't, because they are not antisymmetric:

prefixcmp("foo", "foobar") < 0
prefixcmp("foobar", "foo") == 0

We in fact do not use these functions for ordering. Replace them
with functions that just check for equality.

Add starts_with() and end_with() that will be used to replace
prefixcmp() and suffixcmp(), respectively, as the first step. These
are named after corresponding functions/methods in programming
languages, like Java, Python and Ruby.

In vcs-svn/fast_export.c, there was already an ends_with() function
that did the same thing. Let's use the new one instead while at it.

builtin/remote: remove postfixcmp() and use suffixcmp... Christian Couder Sun, 1 Dec 2013 07:49:15 +0000 (08:49 +0100)

builtin/remote: remove postfixcmp() and use suffixcmp() instead

Commit 8cc5b290 (git merge -X<option>, 25 Nov 2009) introduced
suffixcmp() with nearly the same implementation as postfixcmp()
that already existed since commit 211c8968 (Make git-remote a
builtin, 29 Feb 2008).

The only difference between the two implementations is that,
when the string is smaller than the suffix, one implementation
returns 1 while the other one returns -1.

But, as postfixcmp() is only used to compare for equality, the
distinction does not matter and does not affect the correctness of
this patch.

As postfixcmp() has always been static in builtin/remote.c
and is used nowhere else, it makes more sense to remove it
and use suffixcmp() instead in builtin/remote.c, rather than
to remove suffixcmp().

environment: normalize use of prefixcmp() by removing " != 0"

To be able to automatically convert prefixcmp() to starts_with()
we need first to make sure that prefixcmp() is always used in
the same way.

So let's remove " != 0" after prefixcmp().
