63651e1a13 t3034: add rename threshold tests
10ae752 (merge-recursive: option to specify rename threshold,
2010-09-27) introduced this feature but did not include any tests.

The tests use the new option --find-renames, which replaces the then
introduced and now deprecated option --rename-threshold.

Also update name and description of t3032 for consistency:
"merge-recursive options" -> "merge-recursive space options"

This is a regression introduced by 74703a1e4d (submodule: rewrite
`module_list` shell function in C, 2015-09-02).

Add a test to ensure we list the right submodule when giving a

Relative socket paths are dangerous since the user cannot generally
control when the daemon starts (initially, after a timeout, kill or

directory, this could lead to spurious directory creation relative

likely to be added (as our xdl_merge() eliminates the common
use of it for generating 3-way merge bases).

This is effectively a revert of a9ed376 (xdiff: generate

b779b3a199 merge-tree: drop generate_common strategy
When merge_blobs sees an add/add conflict, it tries to
create a virtual base object for the 3-way merge that
consists of the common lines of each file. It inherited this
strategy from merge-one-file in 0c79938 (Improved three-way
blob merging code, 2006-06-28), and the point is to minimize
the size of the conflict hunks. That commit talks about "if
libxdiff were to ever grow a compatible three-way merge, it
could probably be directly plugged in".

That has long since happened. So as with merge-one-file in
the previous commit, this extra step is no longer necessary.
Our 3-way merge code is smart enough to do the minimizing
itself if we simply feed it an empty base, which is what the
more modern merge-recursive strategy already does.

Not only does this let us drop some code, but it removes an
overflow bug in generate_common_file(). We allocate a buffer
as large as the smallest of the two blobs, under the
assumption that there cannot be more common content than
what is in the smaller blob. However, xdiff may feed us
more: if neither file ends in a newline, it feeds us the
"\nNo newline at end of file" marker as common content, and
we write it into the output. If the differences between the
files are small than that string, we overflow the output
buffer.  This patch solves it by simply dropping the buggy
code entirely.

1a92e53ba3 merge-one-file: use empty blob for add/add base
When we see an add/add conflict on a file, we generate the
conflicted content by doing a 3-way merge with a "virtual"
base consisting of the common lines of the two sides. This
strategy dates back to cb93c19 (merge-one-file: use common
as base, instead of emptiness., 2005-11-09).

Back then, the next step was to call rcs merge to generate
the 3-way conflicts. Using the virtual base produced much
better results, as rcs merge does not attempt to minimize
the hunks. As a result, you'd get a conflict with the
entirety of the files on either side.

Since then, though, we've switched to using git-merge-file,
which uses xdiff's "zealous" merge. This will find the
minimal hunks even with just the simple, empty base.

Let's switch to using that empty base. It's simpler, more
efficient, and reduces our dependencies (we no longer need a
working diff binary). It's also how the merge-recursive
strategy handles this same case.

We can almost get rid of git-sh-setup's create_virtual_base,
but we don't here, for two reasons:

  1. The functions in git-sh-setup are part of our public
     interface, so it's possible somebody is depending on
     it. We'd at least need to deprecate it first.

  2. It's also used by mergetool's p4merge driver. It's
     unknown whether its 3-way merge is as capable as git's;
     if not, then it is benefiting from the function.

fb7dbf3e7a convert ewah/bitmap code to use xmalloc
This code was originally written with the idea that it could
be spun off into its own ewah library, and uses the
overrideable ewah_malloc to do allocations.

We plug in xmalloc as our ewah_malloc, of course. But over
the years the ewah code itself has become more entangled
with git, and the return value of many ewah_malloc sites is
not checked.

Let's just drop the level of indirection and use xmalloc and
friends directly. This saves a few lines, and will let us
adapt these sites to our more advanced malloc helpers.

here, we can clean up the logic around size_only. It
currently sets and clears the "data" field pointlessly, and
leaves the "should_free" flag on even after we have cleared
the data.

7b35eaf8c5 sequencer: simplify memory allocation of get_message
For a commit with sha1 "1234abcd" and subject "foo", this
function produces a struct with three strings:

 1. "foo"

 2. "1234abcd... foo"

 3. "parent of 1234abcd... foo"

It takes advantage of the fact that these strings are
subsets of each other, and allocates only _one_ string, with
pointers into the various parts. Unfortunately, this makes
the string allocation complicated and hard to follow.

Since we keep only one of these in memory at a time, we can
afford to simply allocate three strings. This lets us build
on tools like xstrfmt and avoid manual computation.

While we're here, we can also drop the ad-hoc
reimplementation of get_git_commit_encoding(), and simply
call that function.

62f17513e7 test-path-utils: fix normalize_path_copy output buffer size
The normalize_path_copy function needs an output buffer that
is at least as long as its input (it may shrink the path,
but never expand it). However, this test program feeds it
static PATH_MAX-sized buffers, which have no relation to the
input size.

In the normalize_ceiling_entry case, we do at least check
the size against PATH_MAX and die(), but that case is even
more convoluted. We normalize into a fixed-size buffer, free
the original, and then replace it with a strdup'd copy of
the result. But normalize_path_copy explicitly allows
normalizing in-place, so we can simply do that.

5545f057d4 fetch-pack: simplify add_sought_entry
We have two variants of this function, one that takes a
string and one that takes a ptr/len combo. But we only call
the latter with the length of a NUL-terminated string, so
our first simplification is to drop it in favor of the
string variant.

Since we know we have a string, we can also replace the
manual memory computation with a call to alloc_ref().

Furthermore, we can rely on get_oid_hex() to complain if it
hits the end of the string. That means we can simplify the
check for "<sha1> <ref>" versus just "<ref>". Rather than
manage the ptr/len pair, we can just bump the start of our
string forward. The original code over-allocated based on
the original "namelen" (which wasn't _wrong_, but was simply
wasteful and confusing).

a78c188a32 fast-import: simplify allocation in start_packfile
This function allocate a packed_git flex-array, and adds a
mysterious 2 bytes to the length of the pack_name field. One
is for the trailing NUL, but the other has no purpose. This
is probably cargo-culted from add_packed_git, which gets the
".idx" path and needed to allocate enough space to hold the
matching ".pack" (though since 48bcc1c, we calculate the
size there differently).

This site, however, is using the raw path of a tempfile, and
does not need the extra byte. We can just replace the
allocation with FLEX_ALLOC_STR, which handles the allocation
and the NUL for us.

e0b8373510 write_untracked_extension: use FLEX_ALLOC helper
We perform unchecked additions when computing the size of a
"struct ondisk_untracked_cache". This is unlikely to have an
integer overflow in practice, but we'd like to avoid this
dangerous pattern to make further audits easier.

Note that there's one subtlety here, though.  We protect
ourselves against a NULL exclude_per_dir entry in our
source, and avoid calling strlen() on it, keeping "len" at
0. But later, we unconditionally memcpy "len + 1" bytes to
get the trailing NUL byte. If we did have a NULL
exclude_per_dir, we would read from bogus memory.

As it turns out, though, we always create this field
pointing to a string literal, so there's no bug. We can just
get rid of the pointless extra conditional.

20574f551b prepare_{git,shell}_cmd: use argv_array
These functions transform an existing argv into one suitable
for exec-ing or spawning via git or a shell. We can use an
argv_array in each to avoid dealing with manual counting and
allocation.

This also makes the memory allocation more clear and fixes
some leaks. In prepare_shell_cmd, we would sometimes
allocate a new string with "$@" in it and sometimes not,
meaning the caller could not correctly free it. On the
non-Windows side, we are in a child process which will
exec() or exit() immediately, so the leak isn't a big deal.
On Windows, though, we use spawn() from the parent process,
and leak a string for each shell command we run. On top of
that, the Windows code did not free the allocated argv array
at all (but does for the prepare_git_cmd case!).

By switching both of these functions to write into an
argv_array, we can consistently free the result as
appropriate.

3733e69464 use xmallocz to avoid size arithmetic
We frequently allocate strings as xmalloc(len + 1), where
the extra 1 is for the NUL terminator. This can be done more
simply with xmallocz, which also checks for integer
overflow.

There's no case where switching xmalloc(n+1) to xmallocz(n)
is wrong; the result is the same length, and malloc made no
guarantees about what was in the buffer anyway. But in some
cases, we can stop manually placing NUL at the end of the
allocated buffer. But that's only safe if it's clear that
the contents will always fill the buffer.

In each case where this patch does so, I manually examined
the control flow, and I tried to err on the side of caution.

b32fa95fd8 convert trivial cases to ALLOC_ARRAY
Each of these cases can be converted to use ALLOC_ARRAY or
REALLOC_ARRAY, which has two advantages:

  1. It automatically checks the array-size multiplication
     for overflow.

  2. It always uses sizeof(*array) for the element-size,
     so that it can never go out of sync with the declared
     type of the array.

850d2fec53 convert manual allocations to argv_array
There are many manual argv allocations that predate the
argv_array API. Switching to that API brings a few
advantages:

  1. We no longer have to manually compute the correct final
     array size (so it's one less thing we can screw up).

  2. In many cases we had to make a separate pass to count,
     then allocate, then fill in the array. Now we can do it
     in one pass, making the code shorter and easier to
     follow.

  3. argv_array handles memory ownership for us, making it
     more obvious when things should be free()d and and when
     not.

Most of these cases are pretty straightforward. In some, we
switch from "run_command_v" to "run_command" which lets us
directly use the argv_array embedded in "struct
child_process".

b992657ed0 argv-array: add detach function
The usual pattern for an argv array is to initialize it,
push in some strings, and then clear it when done. Very
occasionally, though, we must do other exotic things with
the memory, like freeing the list but keeping the strings.
Let's provide a detach function so that callers can make use
of our API to build up the array, and then take ownership of
it.

3689539127 add helpers for allocating flex-array structs
Allocating a struct with a flex array is pretty simple in
practice: you over-allocate the struct, then copy some data
into the over-allocation. But it can be a slight pain to
make sure you're allocating and copying the right amounts.

This patch adds a few helpers to turn simple cases of
flex-array struct allocation into a one-liner that properly
checks for overflow. See the embedded documentation for
details.

Ideally we could provide a more flexible version that could
handle multiple strings, like:

  FLEX_ALLOC_FMT(ref, name, "%s%s", prefix, name);

But we have to implement this as a macro (because of the
offset calculation of the flex member), which means we would
need all compilers to support variadic macros.

e7792a74bc harden REALLOC_ARRAY and xcalloc against size_t overflow
REALLOC_ARRAY inherently involves a multiplication which can
overflow size_t, resulting in a much smaller buffer than we
think we've allocated. We can easily harden it by using
st_mult() to check for overflow.  Likewise, we can add
ALLOC_ARRAY to do the same thing for xmalloc calls.

xcalloc() should already be fine, because it takes the two
factors separately, assuming the system calloc actually
checks for overflow. However, before we even hit the system
calloc(), we do our memory_limit_check, which involves a
multiplication. Let's check for overflow ourselves so that
this limit cannot be bypassed.
