Update GitHub CI to use actions/checkout@v3; use of the older
checkout@v2 gets annoying deprecation notices.
* od/ci-use-checkout-v3-when-applicable:
ci(main): upgrade actions/checkout to v3
When the "js/ci-github-workflow-markup" topic was originally merged in
[1] it included a change to get rid of the "ci/print-test-failures.sh"
step[2]. This was then brought back in [3] as part of a fix-up patches
on top[4].
The problem was that [3] was not a revert of the relevant parts of
[2], but rather copy/pasted the "ci/print-test-failures.sh" step that
was present for the Windows job to all "ci/print-test-failures.sh"
steps. The Windows steps specified "shell: bash", but the non-Windows
ones did not.
This broke the "ci/print/test-failures.sh" step for the "linux-musl"
job, where we don't have a "bash" shell, just a "/bin/sh" (a
"dash"). This breakage was reported at the time[5], but hadn't been
fixed.
It would be sufficient to change this only for "linux-musl", but let's
change this for both "regular" and "dockerized" to omit the "shell"
line entirely, as we did before [2].
Let's also change undo the "name" change that [3] made while
copy/pasting the "print test failures" step for the Windows job. These
steps are now the same as they were before [2], except that the "if"
includes the "env.FAILED_TEST_ARTIFACTS" test.

Git now shows better information in the GitHub workflow runs when a test
case failed. However, when a test case was implemented incorrectly and
therefore does not even run, nothing is shown.
Let's bring back the step that prints the full logs of the failed tests,
and to improve the user experience, print out an informational message
for readers so that they do not have to know/remember where to see the
full logs.

When investigating a test failure, the time that matters most is the
time it takes from getting aware of the failure to displaying the output
of the failing test case.
You currently have to know a lot of implementation details when
investigating test failures in the CI runs. The first step is easy: the
failed job is marked quite clearly, but when opening it, the failed step
is expanded, which in our case is the one running
`ci/run-build-and-tests.sh`. This step, most notably, only offers a
high-level view of what went wrong: it prints the output of `prove`
which merely tells the reader which test script failed.
The actually interesting part is in the detailed log of said failed
test script. But that log is shown in the CI run's step that runs
`ci/print-test-failures.sh`. And that step is _not_ expanded in the web
UI by default. It is even marked as "successful", which makes it very
easy to miss that there is useful information hidden in there.
Let's help the reader by showing the failed tests' detailed logs in the
step that is expanded automatically, i.e. directly after the test suite
failed.
This also helps the situation where the _build_ failed and the
`print-test-failures` step was executed under the assumption that the
_test suite_ failed, and consequently failed to find any failed tests.
An alternative way to implement this patch would be to source
`ci/print-test-failures.sh` in the `handle_test_failures` function to
show these logs. However, over the course of the next few commits, we
want to introduce some grouping which would be harder to achieve that
way (for example, we do want a leaner, and colored, preamble for each
failed test script, and it would be trickier to accommodate the lack of
nested groupings in GitHub workflows' output).

* js/ci-no-directional-formatting:

The "linux-clang" and "linux-gcc" jobs both run "make test" twice, but
with different environment variables. Running these in sequence seems
to have been done to work around some constraint on Travis, see
ae59a4e44f (travis: run tests with GIT_TEST_SPLIT_INDEX, 2018-01-07).
By having these run in parallel we'll get jobs that finish much sooner
than they otherwise would have.
We can also simplify the control flow in "ci/run-build-and-tests.sh"
as a result, since we won't run "make test" twice we don't need to run
"make" twice at all, let's default to "make all test" after setting
the variables, and then override it to just "all" for the compile-only
tests.
Add a comment to clarify that new "test" targets should adjust
$MAKE_TARGETS rather than being added after the "case/esac". This
should avoid future confusion where e.g. the compilation-only
"pedantic" target will unexpectedly start running tests. See [1] and
[2].

Change the setup hooks for the CI to use "$runs_on_pool" for the
"$regular" job. Now we won't need as much boilerplate when adding new
jobs to the "regular" matrix, see 956d2e4639 (tests: add a test mode
for SANITIZE=leak, run it in CI, 2021-09-23) for the last such commit.
I.e. now instead of needing to enumerate each jobname when we select
packages we can install things depending on the pool we're running
in.
That we didn't do this dates back to the now gone dependency on Travis
CI, but even if we add a new CI target in the future this'll be easier
to port over, since we can probably treat "ubuntu-latest" as a
stand-in for some recent Linux that can run "apt" commands.

Change the names used for the GitHub CI workflows to be short enough
to (mostly) fit in the pop-up tool-tips that GitHub shows in the
commit view. I.e. when mouse-clicking on the passing or failing
check-mark next to the commit subject.
These names are seemingly truncated to 17-20 characters followed by
three dots ("..."). Since a "CI/PR / " prefix is added to them the job
names looked like this before (windows-test and vs-test jobs omitted):
CI/PR / ci-config (p...

By omitting the "/PR" from the top-level name, and pushing the
$jobname to the front we'll now instead get:
CI / config (push)
CI / win build (push...

We then have no truncation in the expanded view. See [1] for how it
looked before, [2] for a currently visible CI run using this commit,
and [3] for the GitHub workflow syntax involved being changed here.
Let's also use the existing "pool" field as before. It's occasionally
useful to know we're running on say ubuntu v.s. fedora. The "-latest"
suffix is useful to some[4], and since it's now at the end it doesn't
hurt readability in the short view compared to saying "ubuntu" or
"macos".

As described in https://trojansource.codes/trojan-source.pdf, it is
possible to abuse directional formatting (a feature of Unicode) to
deceive human readers into interpreting code differently from compilers.
For example, an "if ()" expression could be enclosed in a comment, but
rendered as if it was outside of that comment. In effect, this could
fool a reviewer into misinterpreting the code flow as benign when it is
not.
It is highly unlikely that Git's source code wants to contain such
directional formatting in the first place, so let's just disallow it.

On the Windows build agents, a lot of programs are installed, and added
to the PATH automatically.
One such program is Git for Windows, and due to the way it is set up,
unfortunately its copy of `gpg.exe` is also reachable via the PATH.
This usually does not pose any problems. To the contrary, it even allows
us to test the GPG parts of Git's test suite even if `gpg.exe` is not
delivered as part of `git-sdk-64-minimal`, the minimal subset of Git for
Windows' SDK that we use in the CI builds to compile Git.
However, every once in a while we build a new MSYS2 runtime, which means
that there is a mismatch between the copy in `git-sdk-64-minimal` and
the copy in C:\Program Files\Git\usr\bin. When that happens we hit the
dreaded problem where only one `msys-2.0.dll` is expected to be in the
PATH, and things start to fail.
Let's avoid all of this by restricting the PATH to the minimal set. This
is actually done by `git-sdk-64-minimal`'s `/etc/profile`, and we just
have to source this file manually (one would expect that it is sourced
automatically, but the Bash steps in Azure Pipelines/GitHub workflows
are explicitly run using `--noprofile`, hence the need for doing this
explicitly).

CI learns to run the leak sanitizer builds.
* ab/sanitize-leak-ci:
tests: add a test mode for SANITIZE=leak, run it in CI
Makefile: add SANITIZE=leak flag to GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS
While git can be compiled with SANITIZE=leak, we have not run
regression tests under that mode. Memory leaks have only been fixed as
one-offs without structured regression testing.
This change adds CI testing for it. We'll now build and small set of
whitelisted t00*.sh tests under Linux with a new job called
"linux-leaks".
The CI target uses a new GIT_TEST_PASSING_SANITIZE_LEAK=true test
mode. When running in that mode, we'll assert that we were compiled
with SANITIZE=leak. We'll then skip all tests, except those that we've
opted-in by setting "TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK=true".
A test setting "TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK=true" setting can in turn
make use of the "SANITIZE_LEAK" prerequisite, should they wish to
selectively skip tests even under
"GIT_TEST_PASSING_SANITIZE_LEAK=true". In the preceding commit we
started doing this in "t0004-unwritable.sh" under SANITIZE=leak, now
it'll combine nicely with "GIT_TEST_PASSING_SANITIZE_LEAK=true".
This is how tests that don't set "TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK=true" will
be skipped under GIT_TEST_PASSING_SANITIZE_LEAK=true:
$ GIT_TEST_PASSING_SANITIZE_LEAK=true ./t0001-init.sh
1..0 # SKIP skip all tests in t0001 under SANITIZE=leak, TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK not set
The intent is to add more TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK=true annotations
as follow-up change, but let's start small to begin with.
In ci/run-build-and-tests.sh we make use of the default "*" case to
run "make test" without any GIT_TEST_* modes. SANITIZE=leak is known
to fail in combination with GIT_TEST_SPLIT_INDEX=true in
t0016-oidmap.sh, and we're likely to have other such failures in
various GIT_TEST_* modes. Let's focus on getting the base tests
passing, we can expand coverage to GIT_TEST_* modes later.
It would also be possible to implement a more lightweight version of
this by only relying on setting "LSAN_OPTIONS". See
<YS9OT/pn5rRK9cGB@coredump.intra.peff.net>[1] and
<YS9ZIDpANfsh7N+S@coredump.intra.peff.net>[2] for a discussion of
that. I've opted for this approach of adding a GIT_TEST_* mode instead
because it's consistent with how we handle other special test modes.
Being able to add a "!SANITIZE_LEAK" prerequisite and calling
"test_done" early if it isn't satisfied also means that we can more
incrementally add regression tests without being forced to fix
widespread and hard-to-fix leaks at the same time.
We have tests that do simple checking of some tool we're interested
in, but later on in the script might be stressing trace2, or common
sources of leaks like "git log" in combination with the tool (e.g. the
commit-graph tests). To be clear having a prerequisite could also be
accomplished by using "LSAN_OPTIONS" directly.
On the topic of "LSAN_OPTIONS": It would be nice to have a mode to
aggregate all failures in our various scripts, see [2] for a start at
doing that which sets "log_path" in "LSAN_OPTIONS". I've punted on
that for now, it can be added later.
As of writing this we've got major regressions between master..seen,
i.e. the t000*.sh tests and more fixed since 31f9acf9ce (Merge branch
'ah/plugleaks', 2021-08-04) have regressed recently.
See the discussion at <87czsv2idy.fsf@evledraar.gmail.com>[3] about
the lack of this sort of test mode, and 0e5bba53af (add UNLEAK
annotation for reducing leak false positives, 2017-09-08) for the
initial addition of SANITIZE=leak.
See also 09595ab381 (Merge branch 'jk/leak-checkers', 2017-09-19),
7782066f67 (Merge branch 'jk/apache-lsan', 2019-05-19) and the recent
936e58851a (Merge branch 'ah/plugleaks', 2021-05-07) for some of the
past history of "one-off" SANITIZE=leak (and more) fixes.
As noted in [5] we can't support this on OSX yet until Clang 14 is
released, at that point we'll probably want to resurrect that
"osx-leaks" job.

By running `sparse` as part of our Continuous Integration, we can catch

Note that `actions/checkout@v2` seems to be incompatible with running in
containers: https://github.com/actions/checkout/issues/151. Therefore,
we stick with v1 there.

We already build Git for Windows with `NO_GETTEXT` when compiling with
GCC. Let's do the same with Visual C, too.
Note that we do not technically _need_ to pass `NO_GETTEXT` explicitly
in that `make artifacts-tar` invocation because we do this while `MSVC`
is set (which will set `uname_S := Windows`, which in turn will set
`NO_GETTEXT = YesPlease`). But it is definitely nicer to be explicit
here.

Git's test suite is excruciatingly slow on Windows, mainly due to the
fact that it executes a lot of shell script code, and that's simply not
native to Windows.
To help with that, we established the pattern where the artifacts are
first built in one job, and then multiple test jobs run in parallel
using the artifacts built in the first job.
We take pains in transferring only the build outputs, and letting
`actions/checkout` fill in the rest of the files.
One major downside of that strategy is that the test jobs might fail to
check out the intended revision (e.g. because the branch has been
updated while the build was running, as is frequently the case with the
`seen` branch).
Let's transfer also the files tracked by Git, and skip the checkout step
in the test jobs.

We use a `.bat` script to copy the DLLs in the `vs-build` job, and those
type of scripts are native to CMD, not to PowerShell.

In our continuous builds, Windows is the odd cookie that requires a
complete development environment to be downloaded because there is no
suitable one installed by default on Windows.
Side note: technically, there _is_ a development environment present in
GitHub Actions' build agents: MSYS2. But it differs from Git for
Windows' SDK in subtle points, unfortunately enough so to prevent Git's
test suite from running without failures.
Traditionally, we support downloading this environment (which we
nicknamed `git-sdk-64-minimal`) via a PowerShell scriptlet that accesses
the build artifacts of a dedicated Azure Pipeline (which packages a tiny
subset of the full Git for Windows SDK, containing just enough to build
Git and run its test suite).
This PowerShell script is unfortunately not very robust and sometimes
fails due to network issues.
Of course, we could add code to detect that situation, wait a little,
try again, if it fails again wait a little longer, lather, rinse and
repeat.
Instead of doing all of this in Git's own `.github/workflows/`, though,
let's offload this logic to the new GitHub Action at
https://github.com/marketplace/actions/setup-git-for-windows-sdk
This Action not only downloads and extracts git-sdk-64-minimal _outside_
the worktree (making it no longer necessary to meddle with
`.gitignore` or `.git/info/exclude`), it also adds the `bash.exe` to the
`PATH` and sets the environment variable `MSYSTEM` (an implementation
detail that Git's workflow should never have needed to know about).
This allows us to convert all those funny PowerShell tasks that wanted
to call git-sdk-64-minimal's `bash.exe`: they all are now regular `bash`
scriptlets.
This finally lets us get rid of the funny quoting and escaping where we
had to pay attention not only to quote and escape the Bash scriptlets
properly, but also to add a second level of escaping (with backslashes
for double quotes and backticks for dollar signs) to stop PowerShell
from doing unintended things.
Further, this Action uses a fast caching strategy native to GitHub
Actions that should accelerate the download across CI runs:
git-sdk-64-minimal is usually updated once per 24h, and needs to be
cached only once within that period. Caching it (unfortunately only on
a per-branch basis) speeds up the download step, and makes it much more
robust at the same time by virtue of accessing a cache location that is
closer in the network topology.
With this we can drop the home-rolled caching where we try to accelerate
the test phase by uploading git-sdk-64-minimal as a workflow artifact
after using it to build Git, and then download it as workflow artifact
in the test phase.
Even better: the `vs-test` job no longer needs to depend on the
`windows-build` job. The only reason it depended on it was to ensure
that the `git-sdk-64-minimal` workflow artifact was available.

Our CMake configuration generates not only build definitions, but also
install definitions: After building Git using `msbuild git.sln`, the
built artifacts can be installed via `msbuild INSTALL.vcxproj`.
To specify _where_ the files should be installed, the
`-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=<path>` option can be used when running CMake.
However, this process would really only install the files that were just
built. On Windows, we need more than that: We also need the `.dll` files
of the dependencies (such as libcurl). The `vcpkg` ecosystem, which we
use to obtain those dependencies, can be asked to install said `.dll`
files really easily, so let's do that.
This requires more than just the built `vcpkg` artifacts in the CI build
definition; We now clone the `vcpkg` repository so that the relevant
CMake scripts are available, in particular the ones related to defining
the toolchain.

The version of Ubuntu Linux used by default at GitHub Actions CI
has been updated to one that lack coccinelle; until it gets fixed,
work it around by sticking to the previous release (18.04).
* tb/ci-run-cocci-with-18.04:
.github/workflows/main.yml: run static-analysis on bionic
Get rid of "GETTEXT_POISON" support altogether, which may or may
not be controversial.
* ab/detox-gettext-tests:
tests: remove uses of GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON=false
tests: remove support for GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON
ci: remove GETTEXT_POISON jobs
GitHub Actions is transitioning workflow steps that run on
'ubuntu-latest' from 18.04 to 20.04 [1].
This works fine in all steps except the static-analysis one, since
Coccinelle isn't available on Ubuntu focal (it is only available in the
universe suite).
Until Coccinelle can be installed from 20.04's main suite, pin the
static-analysis build to run on 18.04, where it can be installed by
default.

The CI/PR GitHub Actions workflow uses the 'matrix' strategy for the
"windows-test", "vs-test", "regular" and "dockerized" jobs. The default
behaviour of GitHub Actions is to cancel all in-progress jobs in a
matrix if one of the job of the matrix fails [1].
This is not ideal as a failure early in a job, like during installation of
the build/test dependencies on a specific platform, leads to the
cancellation of all other jobs in the matrix.
Set the 'fail-fast' variable to 'false' for all four matrix jobs in the
workflow.

A subsequent commit will remove GETTEXT_POISON entirely, let's start
by removing the CI jobs that enable the option.
We cannot just remove the job because the CI is implicitly depending
on the "poison" job being a sort of "default" job in the sense that
it's the job that was otherwise run with the default compiler, no
other GIT_TEST_* options etc. So let's keep it under the name
"linux-gcc-default".
This means we can remove the initial "make test" from the "linux-gcc"
job (it does another one after setting a bunch of GIT_TEST_*
variables).
I'm not doing that because it would conflict with the in-flight
334afbc76f (tests: mark tests relying on the current default for
`init.defaultBranch`, 2020-11-18) (currently on the "seen" branch, so
the SHA-1 will almost definitely change). It's going to use that "make
test" again for different reasons, so let's preserve it for now.
