grep: take the read-lock when adding a submodule

With --recurse-submodules, we add each submodule that we encounter to
the list of alternate object databases. With threading, our changes to
the list are not protected against races. Indeed, ThreadSanitizer
reports a race when we call `add_to_alternates_memory()` around the same
time that another thread is reading in the list through
`read_sha1_file()`.

Take the grep read-lock while adding the submodule. The lock is used to
serialize uses of non-thread-safe parts of Git's API, including
`read_sha1_file()`.

sequencer: pass absolute GIT_DIR to exec commands

When we replaced the old shell script based interactive rebase in
commmit 18633e1a22a6 ("rebase -i: use the rebase--helper builtin",
2017-02-09) we introduced a regression of functionality in that the
GIT_DIR would be sent to the environment of the exec command as-is.

This generally meant that it would be passed as "GIT_DIR=.git", which
causes problems for any exec command that wants to run git commands in
a subdirectory.

This isn't a very large regression, since it is not that likely that the
exec command will run a git command, and even less likely that it will
need to do so in a subdir. This regression was discovered by a build
system which uses git-describe to find the current version of the build
system, and happened to do so from the src/ sub directory of the
project.

Fix this by passing in the absolute path of the git directory into the
child environment.

t5580: add Cygwin support

t5580 tests that specifying Windows UNC paths works with Git. Cygwin
supports UNC paths, albeit only using forward slashes, not backslashes,
so run the compatible tests on Cygwin as well as MinGW.

The only complication is Cygwin's `pwd`, which returns a *nix-style
path, and that's not suitable for calculating the UNC path to the
current directory. Instead use Cygwin's `cygpath` utility to get the
Windows-style path.

sha1_file: use hex_to_bytes()

The path of a loose object contains its hash value encoded into two
substrings of 2 and 38 hexadecimal digits separated by a slash. The
first part is handed to for_each_file_in_obj_subdir() in decoded form as
subdir_nr. The current code builds a full hexadecimal representation of
the hash in a temporary buffer, then uses get_oid_hex() to decode it.

Avoid the intermediate step by taking subdir_nr as-is and using
hex_to_bytes() directly on the second substring. That's shorter and
easier.

stash: remove now superfluos help for "stash push"Thomas Gummerer Sun, 22 Oct 2017 17:04:09 +0000 (18:04 +0100)

stash: remove now superfluos help for "stash push"

With the 'git stash save' interface, it was easily possible for users to
try to add a message which would start with "-", which 'git stash save'
would interpret as a command line argument, and fail. For this case we
added some extra help on how to create a stash with a message starting
with "-".

For 'stash push', messages are passed with the -m flag, avoiding this
potential pitfall. Now only pathspecs starting with "-" would have to
be distinguished from command line parameters by using
"-- --<pathspec>". This is fairly common in the git command line
interface, and we don't try to guess what the users wanted in the other
cases.

Because this way of passing pathspecs is quite common in other git
commands, and we don't provide any extra help there, do the same in the
error message for 'git stash push'.

with a nicer, more consistent user interface deprecate 'git stash

move it to a separate section, stating that it is deprecated.

"git stash push" is the newer interface for creating a stash. While we
are still keeping "git stash save" around for the time being, it's better
to point new users of "git stash" to the more modern (and more feature
rich) interface, instead of teaching them the older version that we
might want to phase out in the future.

status: do not get confused by submodules in excluded directories

We meticulously pass the `exclude` flag to the `treat_directory()`
function so that we can indicate that files in it are excluded rather
than untracked when recursing.

But we did not yet treat submodules the same way.

Because of that, `git status --ignored --untracked` with a submodule
`submodule` in a gitignored `tracked/` would show the submodule in the
"Untracked files" section, e.g.

On branch master
Untracked files:
(use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)

tracked/submodule/

Ignored files:
(use "git add -f <file>..." to include in what will be committed)

Instead, we would want it to show the submodule in the "Ignored files"
section:

diff.c: get rid of duplicate implementationStefan Beller Wed, 25 Oct 2017 18:49:12 +0000 (11:49 -0700)

diff.c: get rid of duplicate implementation

The implementations in diff.c to detect moved lines needs to compare
strings and hash strings, which is implemented in that file, as well
as in the xdiff library.

Remove the rather recent implementation in diff.c and rely on the well
exercised code in the xdiff lib.

With this change the hash used for bucketing the strings for the moved
line detection changes from FNV32 (that is provided via the hashmaps
memhash) to DJB2 (which is used internally in xdiff). Benchmarks found
on the web[1] do not indicate that these hashes are different in
performance for readable strings.

files_transaction_prepare(): fix handling of ref lock... Michael Haggerty Tue, 24 Oct 2017 15:16:25 +0000 (17:16 +0200)

files_transaction_prepare(): fix handling of ref lock failure

Since dc39e09942 (files_ref_store: use a transaction to update packed
refs, 2017-09-08), failure to lock a reference has been handled
incorrectly by `files_transaction_prepare()`. If
`lock_ref_for_update()` fails in the lock-acquisition loop of that
function, it sets `ret` then breaks out of that loop. Prior to
dc39e09942, that was OK, because the only thing following the loop was
the cleanup code. But dc39e09942 added another blurb of code between
the loop and the cleanup. That blurb sometimes resets `ret` to zero,
making the cleanup code think that the locking was successful.

Specifically, whenever

* One or more reference deletions have been processed successfully in
the lock-acquisition loop. (Processing the first such reference
causes a packed-ref transaction to be initialized.)

* Then `lock_ref_for_update()` fails for a subsequent reference. Such
a failure can happen for a number of reasons, such as the old SHA-1
not being correct, lock contention, etc. This causes a `break` out
of the lock-acquisition loop.

* The `packed-refs` lock is acquired successfully and
`ref_transaction_prepare()` succeeds for the packed-ref transaction.
This has the effect of resetting `ret` back to 0, and making the
cleanup code think that lock acquisition was successful.

In that case, any reference updates that were processed prior to
breaking out of the loop would be carried out (loose and packed), but
the reference that couldn't be locked and any subsequent references
would silently be ignored.

This can easily cause data loss if, for example, the user was trying
to push a new name for an existing branch while deleting the old name.
After the push, the branch could be left unreachable, and could even
subsequently be garbage-collected.

This problem was noticed in the context of deleting one reference and
creating another in a single transaction, when the two references D/F
conflict with each other, like

git update-ref --stdin <<EOF
delete refs/foo
create refs/foo/bar HEAD
EOF

This triggers the above bug because the deletion is processed
successfully for `refs/foo`, then the D/F conflict causes
`lock_ref_for_update()` to fail when `refs/foo/bar` is processed. In
this case the transaction *should* fail, but instead it causes
`refs/foo` to be deleted without creating `refs/foo`. This could
easily result in data loss.

The fix is simple: instead of just breaking out of the loop, jump
directly to the cleanup code. This fixes some tests in t1404 that were
added in the previous commit.

t1404: add a bunch of tests of D/F conflicts

It is currently not allowed, in a single transaction, to add one
reference and delete another reference if the two reference names D/F
conflict with each other (e.g., like `refs/foo/bar` and `refs/foo`).
The reason is that the code would need to take locks

$GIT_DIR/refs/foo.lock
$GIT_DIR/refs/foo/bar.lock

But the latter lock couldn't coexist with the loose reference file

$GIT_DIR/refs/foo

, because `$GIT_DIR/refs/foo` cannot be both a directory and a file at
the same time (hence the name "D/F conflict).

Add a bunch of tests that we cleanly reject such transactions.

In fact, many of the new tests currently fail. They will be fixed in
the next commit along with an explanation.

worktree: handle broken symrefs in find_shared_symref()Jeff King Thu, 19 Oct 2017 17:49:36 +0000 (13:49 -0400)

worktree: handle broken symrefs in find_shared_symref()

The refs_resolve_ref_unsafe() function may return NULL even
with a REF_ISSYMREF flag if a symref points to a broken ref.
As a result, it's possible for find_shared_symref() to
segfault when it passes NULL to strcmp().

This is hard to trigger for most code paths. We typically
pass HEAD to the function as the symref to resolve, and
programs like "git branch" will bail much earlier if HEAD
isn't valid.

I did manage to trigger it through one very obscure
sequence:

# You have multiple notes refs which conflict.
git notes add -m base
git notes --ref refs/notes/foo add -m foo

# There's left-over cruft in NOTES_MERGE_REF that
# makes it a broken symref (in this case we point
# to a syntactically invalid ref).
echo "ref: refs/heads/master.lock" >.git/NOTES_MERGE_REF

# You try to merge the notes. We read the broken value in
# order to complain that another notes-merge is
# in-progress, but we segfault in find_shared_symref().
git notes merge refs/notes/foo

This is obviously silly and almost certainly impossible to
trigger accidentally, but it does show that the bug is
triggerable from at least one code path. In addition, it
would trigger if we saw a transient filesystem error when
resolving the pointed-to ref.

We can fix this by treating NULL the same as a non-matching
symref. Arguably we'd prefer to know if a symref points to
"refs/heads/foo", but "refs/heads/foo" is broken. But
refs_resolve_ref_unsafe() isn't capable of giving us that
information, so this is the best we can do.

log: handle broken HEAD in decoration check

The resolve_ref_unsafe() function may return NULL even with
a REF_ISSYMREF flag if a symref points to a broken ref. As a
result, it's possible for the decoration code's "is this
branch the current HEAD" check to segfault when it passes
the NULL to starts_with().

This is unlikely in practice, since we can only reach this
code if we already resolved HEAD to a matching sha1 earlier.
But it's possible if HEAD racily becomes broken, or if
there's a transient filesystem error.

We can fix this by returning early in the broken case, since
NULL could not possibly match any of our branch names.

remote: handle broken symrefs

It's possible for resolve_ref_unsafe() to return NULL with a
REF_ISSYMREF flag if a symref points to a broken ref. In
this case, the read_remote_branches() function will segfault
passing the name to xstrdup().

This is hard to trigger in practice, since this function is
used as a callback to for_each_ref(), which will skip broken
refs in the first place (so it would have to be broken
racily, or for us to see a transient filesystem error).

If we see such a racy broken outcome let's treat it as "not
a symref". This is exactly the same thing that would happen
in the non-racy case (our function would not be called at
all, as for_each_ref would skip the broken symref).

test-ref-store: avoid passing NULL to printfJeff King Thu, 19 Oct 2017 17:46:21 +0000 (13:46 -0400)

test-ref-store: avoid passing NULL to printf

It's possible for resolve_ref_unsafe() to return NULL (e.g.,
if we are reading and the ref does not exist), in which case
we'll pass NULL to printf. On glibc systems this produces
"(null)", but on others it may segfault.

The tests don't expect any such case, but if we ever did
trigger this, we would prefer to cleanly fail the test with
unexpected input rather than segfault. Let's manually
replace NULL with "(null)". The exact value doesn't matter,
as it won't match any possible ref the caller could expect
(and anyway, the exit code of the program will tell whether
"ref" is valid or not).

Add check of the resolved HEAD reference while printing of a commit summary.
resolve_ref_unsafe() may return NULL pointer if underlying calls of lstat() or

Such situation can be caused by race: file becomes inaccessible to this moment.

diff: handle NULs in get_string_hash()

For computing moved lines, we feed the characters of each
line into a hash. When we've been asked to ignore
whitespace, then we pick each character using next_byte(),
which returns -1 on end-of-string, which it determines using
the start/end pointers we feed it.

However our check of its return value treats "0" the same as
"-1", meaning we'd quit if the string has an embedded NUL.
This is unlikely to ever come up in practice since our line
boundaries generally come from calling strlen() in the first
place.

But it was a bit surprising to me as a reader of the
next_byte() code. And it's possible that we may one day feed
this function with more exotic input, which otherwise works
with arbitrary ptr/len pairs.

diff: fix whitespace-skipping with --color-movedJeff King Thu, 19 Oct 2017 20:29:26 +0000 (16:29 -0400)

diff: fix whitespace-skipping with --color-moved

The code for handling whitespace with --color-moved
represents partial strings as a pair of pointers. There are
two possible conventions for the end pointer:

1. It points to the byte right after the end of the
string.

2. It points to the final byte of the string.

But we seem to use both conventions in the code:

a. we assign the initial pointers from the NUL-terminated
string using (1)

b. we eat trailing whitespace by checking the second
pointer for isspace(), which needs (2)

c. the next_byte() function checks for end-of-string with
"if (cp > endp)", which is (2)

d. in next_byte() we skip past internal whitespace with
"while (cp < end)", which is (1)

This creates fewer bugs than you might think, because there
are some subtle interactions. Because of (a) and (c), we
always return the NUL-terminator from next_byte(). But all
of the callers of next_byte() happen to handle that
gracefully.

Because of the mismatch between (d) and (c), next_byte()
could accidentally return a whitespace character right at
endp. But because of the interaction of (a) and (b), we fail
to actually chomp trailing whitespace, meaning our endp
_always_ points to a NUL, canceling out the problem.

But that does leave (b) as a real bug: when ignoring
whitespace only at the end-of-line, we don't correctly trim
it, and fail to match up lines.

We can fix the whole thing by moving consistently to one
convention. Since convention (1) is idiomatic in our code
base, we'll pick that one.

The existing "-w" and "-b" tests continue to pass, and a new
"--ignore-space-at-eol" shows off the breakage we're fixing.

t4015: test the output of "diff --color-moved -b"

Commit fa5ba2c1dd (diff: fix infinite loop with
--color-moved --ignore-space-change, 2017-10-12) added a
test to make sure that "--color-moved -b" doesn't run
forever, but the test in question doesn't actually have any
moved lines in it.

Let's scrap that test and add a variant of the existing
"--color-moved -w" test, but this time we'll check that we
find the move with whitespace changes, but not arbitrary
whitespace additions.

t4015: check "negative" case for "-w --color-moved"

We test that lines with whitespace changes are not found by
"--color-moved" by default, but are found if "-w" is added.
Let's add one more twist: a line that has non-whitespace
changes should not be marked as a pure move.

This is perhaps an obvious case for us to get right (and we
do), but as we add more whitespace tests, they will form a
pattern of "make sure this case is a move and this other
case is not".

Note that we have to add a line to our moved block, since
having a too-small block doesn't trigger the "moved"
heuristics. And we also add a line of context to ensure
that there's more context lines than moved lines (so the
diff shows us moving the lines up, rather than moving the
context down).
