Jeff King 470e28d4e1 refs.c: remove_empty_directories can take a strbuf
The first thing we do in this function is copy the input
into a strbuf. Of the 4 callers, 3 of them already have a
strbuf we could use. Let's just take the strbuf, and convert
the remaining caller to use a strbuf, rather than a raw
git_path. This is safer, anyway, as remove_dir_recursively
is a non-trivial function that might use the pathname
buffers itself (this is _probably_ OK, as the likely culprit
would be calling resolve_gitlink_ref, but we do not pass the
proper flags to ask it to avoid blowing away gitlinks).

Jeff King 5f8ef5b848 refs.c: avoid git_path assignment in lock_ref_sha1_basic
Assigning the result of git_path is a bad pattern, because
it's not immediately obvious how long you expect the content
to stay valid (and it may be overwritten by subsequent
calls). Let's use a function-local strbuf here instead,
which we know is safe (we just have to remember to free it
in all code paths).

As a bonus, we get rid of a confusing variable-reuse
("ref_file" is used for two distinct purposes).

Jeff King d6549f3655 refs.c: avoid repeated git_path calls in rename_tmp_log
Because it's not safe to store the static-buffer results of
git_path for a long time, we end up formatting the same
filename over and over. We can fix this by using a
function-local strbuf to store the formatted pathname and
avoid repeating ourselves.

Jeff King 54b418f698 refs.c: simplify strbufs in reflog setup and writing
Commit 1a83c24 (git_snpath(): retire and replace with
strbuf_git_path(), 2014-11-30) taught log_ref_setup and
log_ref_write_1 to take a strbuf parameter, rather than a
bare string. It then makes an alias to the strbuf's "buf"
field under the original name.

This made the original diff much shorter, but the resulting
code is more complicated that it needs to be. Since we've
aliased the pointer, we drop our reference to the strbuf to
ensure we don't accidentally change it. But if we simply
drop our alias and use "logfile.buf" directly, we do not
have to worry about this aliasing. It's a larger diff, but
the resulting code is simpler.

Jeff King f5b2dec165 refs.c: remove extra git_path calls from read_loose_refs
In iterating over the loose refs in "refs/foo/", we keep a
running strbuf with "refs/foo/one", "refs/foo/two", etc. But
we also need to access these files in the filesystem, as
".git/refs/foo/one", etc. For this latter purpose, we make a
series of independent calls to git_path(). These are safe
(we only use the result to call stat()), but assigning the
result of git_path is a suspicious pattern that we'd rather
avoid.

This patch keeps a running buffer with ".git/refs/foo/", and
we can just append/reset each directory element as we loop.
This matches how we handle the refnames. It should also be
more efficient, as we do not keep formatting the same
".git/refs/foo" prefix (which can be arbitrarily deep).

Technically we are dropping a call to strbuf_cleanup() on
each generated filename, but that's OK; it wasn't doing
anything, as we are putting in single-level names we read
from the filesystem (so it could not possibly be cleaning up
cruft like "./" in this instance).

A clever reader may also note that the running refname
buffer ("refs/foo/") is actually a subset of the filesystem
path buffer (".git/refs/foo/"). We could get by with one
buffer, indexing the length of $GIT_DIR when we want the
refname. However, having tried this, the resulting code
actually ends up a little more confusing, and the efficiency
improvement is tiny (and almost certainly dwarfed by the
system calls we are making).

Jeff King e3cf230324 prefer mkpathdup to mkpath in assignments
As with the previous commit to git_path, assigning the
result of mkpath is suspicious, since it is not clear
whether we will still depend on the value after it may have
been overwritten by subsequent calls. This patch converts
low-hanging fruit to use mkpathdup instead of mkpath (with
the downside that we must remember to free the result).

Jeff King fcd12db6af prefer git_pathdup to git_path in some possibly-dangerous cases
Because git_path uses a static buffer that is shared with
calls to git_path, mkpath, etc, it can be dangerous to
assign the result to a variable or pass it to a non-trivial
function. The value may change unexpectedly due to other
calls.

None of the cases changed here has a known bug, but they're
worth converting away from git_path because:

  1. It's easy to use git_pathdup in these cases.

  2. They use constructs (like assignment) that make it
     hard to tell whether they're safe or not.

The extra malloc overhead should be trivial, as an
allocation should be an order of magnitude cheaper than a
system call (which we are clearly about to make, since we
are constructing a filename). The real cost is that we must
remember to free the result.

Loosen restrictions on refspecs by allowing patterns that have a "*"
within a component instead of only as the whole component.

Remove the logic to accept a single "*" as a whole component from

in check_refname_component().  Pass the pointer to the flags argument
to the latter, as it has to clear REFNAME_REFSPEC_PATTERN bit when
it sees "*".

Teach check_refname_component() function to allow an asterisk "*"
only when REFNAME_REFSPEC_PATTERN is set in the flags, and drop the
bit after seeing a "*", to ensure that one side of a refspec
contains at most one asterisk.

This will allow us to accept refspecs such as `for/bar*:foo/baz*`.
Any refspec which functioned before shall continue functioning with
the new logic.

The log_ref_setup function becomes private and gains a force_create

The new parameter also reduces the need to store, modify, and restore

David Turner a4c653dfcd refs.c: add err arguments to reflog functions
Add an err argument to log_ref_setup that can explain the reason
for a failure. This then eliminates the need to manage errno through
this function since we can just add strerror(errno) to the err string
when meaningful. No callers relied on errno from this function for
anything else than the error message.

Also add err arguments to private functions write_ref_to_lockfile,
log_ref_write_1, commit_ref_update. This again eliminates the need to
manage errno in these functions.

Some error messages are slightly reordered.

Jeff King a5481a6c94 convert "enum date_mode" into a struct
In preparation for adding date modes that may carry extra
information beyond the mode itself, this patch converts the
date_mode enum into a struct.

Most of the conversion is fairly straightforward; we pass
the struct as a pointer and dereference the type field where
necessary. Locations that declare a date_mode can use a "{}"
constructor.  However, the tricky case is where we use the
enum labels as constants, like:

  show_date(t, tz, DATE_NORMAL);

Ideally we could say:

  show_date(t, tz, &{ DATE_NORMAL });

but of course C does not allow that. Likewise, we cannot
cast the constant to a struct, because we need to pass an
actual address. Our options are basically:

  1. Manually add a "struct date_mode d = { DATE_NORMAL }"
     definition to each caller, and pass "&d". This makes
     the callers uglier, because they sometimes do not even
     have their own scope (e.g., they are inside a switch
     statement).

  2. Provide a pre-made global "date_normal" struct that can
     be passed by address. We'd also need "date_rfc2822",
     "date_iso8601", and so forth. But at least the ugliness
     is defined in one place.

  3. Provide a wrapper that generates the correct struct on
     the fly. The big downside is that we end up pointing to
     a single global, which makes our wrapper non-reentrant.
     But show_date is already not reentrant, so it does not
     matter.

This patch implements 3, along with a minor macro to keep
the size of the callers sane.

Michael Haggerty 1c03c4d347 delete_ref(): use the usual convention for old_sha1
The ref_transaction_update() family of functions use the following
convention for their old_sha1 parameters:

* old_sha1 == NULL: Don't check the old value at all.
* is_null_sha1(old_sha1): Ensure that the reference didn't exist
  before the transaction.
* otherwise: Ensure that the reference had the specified value before
  the transaction.

delete_ref() had a different convention, namely treating
is_null_sha1(old_sha1) as "don't care". Change it to adhere to the
standard convention to reduce the scope for confusion.

Please note that it is now a bug to pass old_sha1=NULL_SHA1 to
delete_ref() (because it doesn't make sense to delete a reference that
you already know doesn't exist). This is consistent with the behavior
of ref_transaction_delete().

Most of the callers of delete_ref() never pass old_sha1=NULL_SHA1 to
delete_ref(), and are therefore unaffected by this change. The
two exceptions are:

* The call in cmd_update_ref(), which passed NULL_SHA1 if the old
  value passed in on the command line was 0{40} or the empty string.
  Change that caller to pass NULL in those cases.

  Arguably, it should be an error to call "update-ref -d" with the old
  value set to "does not exist", just as it is for the `--stdin`
  command "delete". But since this usage was accepted until now,
  continue to accept it.

* The call in delete_branches(), which could pass NULL_SHA1 if
  deleting a broken or symbolic ref. Change it to pass NULL in these
  cases.

Michael Haggerty 58f233ce1e initial_ref_transaction_commit(): function for initial ref creation
"git clone" uses shortcuts when creating the initial set of
references:

* It writes them directly to packed-refs.

* It doesn't lock the individual references (though it does lock the
  packed-refs file).

* It doesn't check for refname conflicts between two new references or
  between one new reference and any hypothetical old ones.

* It doesn't create reflog entries for the reference creations.

This functionality was implemented in builtin/clone.c. But really that
file shouldn't have such intimate knowledge of how references are
stored. So provide a new function in the refs API,
initial_ref_transaction_commit(), which can be used for initial
reference creation. The new function is based on the ref_transaction
interface.

This means that we can make some other functions private to the refs
module. That will be done in a followup commit.

It would seem to make sense to add a test here that there are no
existing references, because that is how the function *should* be
used. But in fact, the "testgit" remote helper appears to call it
*after* having set up refs/remotes/<name>/HEAD and
refs/remotes/<name>/master, so we can't be so strict. For now, the
function trusts its caller to only call it when it makes sense. Future
commits will add some more limited sanity checks.

branches.

Michael Haggerty f5517074f8 read_loose_refs(): simplify function logic
Make it clearer that there are two possible ways to read the
reference, but that we handle read errors uniformly regardless of
which way it was read.

This refactoring also makes the following change easier to implement.

Michael Haggerty 33ffc176d6 verify_lock(): report errors via a strbuf
Instead of writing error messages directly to stderr, write them to
a "strbuf *err".  The caller, lock_ref_sha1_basic(), uses this error
reporting convention with all the other callees, and reports its
error this way to its callers.

Michael Haggerty a5e2499e54 verify_lock(): return 0/-1 rather than struct ref_lock *
Its return value wasn't conveying any extra information, but it made
the reader wonder whether the ref_lock that it returned might be
different than the one that was passed to it. So change the function
to the traditional "return 0 on success or a negative value on error".

Michael Haggerty 2b2a5be394 each_ref_fn: change to take an object_id parameter
Change typedef each_ref_fn to take a "const struct object_id *oid"
parameter instead of "const unsigned char *sha1".

To aid this transition, implement an adapter that can be used to wrap
old-style functions matching the old typedef, which is now called
"each_ref_sha1_fn"), and make such functions callable via the new
interface. This requires the old function and its cb_data to be
wrapped in a "struct each_ref_fn_sha1_adapter", and that object to be
used as the cb_data for an adapter function, each_ref_fn_adapter().

This is an enormous diff, but most of it consists of simple,
mechanical changes to the sites that call any of the "for_each_ref"
family of functions. Subsequent to this change, the call sites can be
rewritten one by one to use the new interface.
