Stepan Kasal b93e6e3663 t5000, t5003: do not use test_cmp to compare binary files
test_cmp() is primarily meant to compare text files (and display the
difference for debug purposes).

Raw "cmp" is better suited to compare binary files (tar, zip, etc.).

On MinGW, test_cmp is a shell function mingw_test_cmp that tries to
read both files into environment, stripping CR characters (introduced
in commit 4d715ac0).

This function usually speeds things up, as fork is extremly slow on
Windows.  But no wonder that this function is extremely slow and
sometimes even crashes when comparing large tar or zip files.

Scott J. Goldman 7671b63211 add uploadarchive.allowUnreachable option
In commit ee27ca4, we started restricting remote git-archive
invocations to only accessing reachable commits. This
matches what upload-pack allows, but does restrict some
useful cases (e.g., HEAD:foo). We loosened this in 0f544ee,
which allows `foo:bar` as long as `foo` is a ref tip.
However, that still doesn't allow many useful things, like:

  1. Commits accessible from a ref, like `foo^:bar`, which
     are reachable

  2. Arbitrary sha1s, even if they are reachable.

We can do a full object-reachability check for these cases,
but it can be quite expensive if the client has sent us the
sha1 of a tree; we have to visit every sub-tree of every
commit in the worst case.

Let's instead give site admins an escape hatch, in case they
prefer the more liberal behavior.  For many sites, the full
object database is public anyway (e.g., if you allow dumb
walker access), or the site admin may simply decide the
security/convenience tradeoff is not worth it.

This patch adds a new config option to disable the
restrictions added in ee27ca4. It defaults to off, meaning
there is no change in behavior by default.

  t5000: simplify gzip prerequisite checks
2013-12-17 11:46:30 -08:00
Jeff King 96174145fc t5000: simplify gzip prerequisite checks
In t5000, we test the built-in ".tar.gz" config for
git-archive. To make our tests portable, we check that we
have a way to both gzip and gunzip, and we respected
environment variables to point to alternate commands for
doing these operations.

However, the $GZIP variable did not actually do anything, as
changing it would not affect the baked-in value in
archive-tar.c. Moreover, setting the variable $GZIP
influences gzip itself. From the gzip man page:

  The environment variable GZIP can hold a set of default
  options for gzip. These options are interpreted first and
  can be overwritten by explicit command line parameters.

We could rename this variable, and use it to set up custom
config (or even have a Makefile knob to affect the built
binary), but it is not worth the trouble; nobody has ever
reported a problem with the baked-in default, and they can
always change it via config if they need to. Let's just drop
the variable and use "gzip" in the test (keeping the
prerequisite, of course).

While we're at it, we can drop the GUNZIP variable and
prerequisite; it uses "gzip -d", so if we have GZIP, we
will have both.

We can also use test_lazy_prereq for the gzip prerequisite,
which is simpler and behaves more consistently with the rest
of git (e.g., by making output available when the test is
run with "-v").

René Scharfe 9bf1ac41d2 t5000: test long filenames
Add a file with a long name to the test archive in order to check
entries with pax extended headers.  Also add a check for tar versions
that doen't understand this format.  Those versions should extract the
headers as a regular files.  Add code to check_tar() to interpret the
path header if present, so that our tests work even with those tar
versions.

It's important to use the fallback code only if needed to still be
able to detect git archive errorously creating pax headers as regular
file entries (with a suitable tar version, of course).

The archive used to check for pax header support in tar was generated
using GNU tar 1.26 and its option --format=pax.

Tested successfully on NetBSD 6.1, which has a tar version lacking pax
header support.

Jeff King 785a042981 archive-tar: use parse_config_key when parsing config
This is fewer lines of code, but more importantly, fixes a
bogus pointer offset. We are looking for "tar." in the
section, but later assume that the dot we found is at offset
9, not 3. This is a holdover from an earlier iteration of
767cf45 which called the section "tarfilter".

As a result, we could erroneously reject some filters with
dots in their name, as well as read uninitialized memory.

Jeff King ee27ca4a78 archive: don't let remote clients get unreachable commits
Usually git is careful not to allow clients to fetch
arbitrary objects from the database; for example, objects
received via upload-pack must be reachable from a ref.
Upload-archive breaks this by feeding the client's tree-ish
directly to get_sha1, which will accept arbitrary hex sha1s,
reflogs, etc.

This is not a problem if all of your objects are publicly
reachable anyway (or at least public to anybody who can run
upload-archive). Or if you are making the repo available by
dumb protocols like http or rsync (in which case the client
can read your whole object db directly).

But for sites which allow access only through smart
protocols, clients may be able to fetch trees from commits
that exist in the server's object database but are not
referenced (e.g., because history was rewound).

This patch tightens upload-archive's lookup to use dwim_ref
rather than get_sha1. This means a remote client can only
fetch the tip of a named ref, not an arbitrary sha1 or
reflog entry.

This also restricts some legitimate requests, too:

  1. Reachable non-tip commits, like:

        git archive --remote=$url v1.0~5

  2. Sub-trees of reachable commits, like:

        git archive --remote=$url v1.7.7:Documentation

Local requests continue to use get_sha1, and are not
restricted at all.

René Scharfe fe12d8e84f archive: simplify archive format guessing
The code to guess an output archive's format consumed any --format
options and built a new one.  Jonathan noticed that it does so in an
unsafe way, risking to overflow the static buffer fmt_opt.

Change the code to keep the existing --format options intact and to only
add a new one if a format could be guessed based on the output file name.
The new option is added as the first one, allowing the existing ones to
overrule it, i.e. explicit --format options given on the command line win
over format guesses, as before.

To simplify the code further, format_from_name() is changed to return the
full --format option, thus no potentially dangerous sprintf() calls are
needed any more.

Jeff King 30684dfaf8 t5000: tar portability fix
The output of 'tar tv' varies from system to system. In
particular, the t5000 was expecting to parse the date from
something like:

  -rw-rw-r-- root/root         0 2008-05-13 04:27 file

but FreeBSD's tar produces this:

  -rw-rw-r--  0 root   root        0 May 13 04:27 file

Instead of relying on tar's output, let's just extract the
file using tar and stat the result using perl.

René Scharfe ac7fa2776c git-archive: ignore prefix when checking file attribute
Ulrik Sverdrup noticed that git-archive doesn't correctly apply the attribute
export-subst when the option --prefix is given, too.

When it checked if a file has the attribute turned on, git-archive would try
to look up the full path -- including the prefix -- in .gitattributes.  That's
wrong, as the prefix doesn't need to have any relation to any existing
directories, tracked or not.

This patch makes git-archive ignore the prefix when looking up if value of the
attribute export-subst for a file.

René Scharfe 760da9607e archive: fix subst file generation
Before the strbuf conversion, result was a char pointer.  The if
statement checked for it being not NULL, which meant that no
"$Format:...$" string had been found and no replacement had to be
made.  format_subst() returned NULL in that case -- the caller
then simply kept the original file content, as it was unaffected
by the expansion.

The length of the string being 0 is not the same as the string
being NULL (expansion to an empty string vs. no expansion at all),
so checking result.len != 0 is not a full replacement for the old
NULL check.

However, I doubt the subtle optimization explained above resulted
in a notable speed-up anyway.  Simplify the code and add the tail
of the file to the expanded string unconditionally.

[jc: added a test to expose the breakage this fixes]

René Scharfe 38c9c9b798 archive: rename attribute specfile to export-subst
As suggested by Junio and Johannes, change the name of the former
attribute specfile to export-subst to indicate its function rather
than purpose and to make clear that it is not applied to working tree
files.

René Scharfe df4a394f91 archive: specfile syntax change: "$Format:%PLCHLDR$" instead of just "%PLCHLDR" (take 2)
As suggested by Johannes, --pretty=format: placeholders in specfiles
need to be wrapped in $Format:...$ now.  This syntax change restricts
the expansion of placeholders and makes it easier to use with files
that contain non-placeholder percent signs.
