Junio C Hamano 448d51d549 transport: fix leak with transport helper URLs
Transport URLs can be prefixed with "foo::", which would tell us that
the transport uses a remote helper called "foo". We extract the helper
name by `xstrndup()`ing the prefix before the double-colons, but never
free that string.

Fix this leak by assigning the result to a separate local variable that
we can then free upon returning.

Taylor Blau ac91586ae5 t/t7704-repack-cruft.sh: avoid failures during long-running tests
On systems where running t7704.09 takes longer than 10 seconds, the test
can fail.

The test works by doing the following:

  - First write three unreachable objects, backdating the mtime for a
    single object ($foo) which we expect to prune.

  - Repack the repository into a pack containing reachable objects, and
    another three cruft packs, each containing one of the objects
    written in the previous step.

  - Backdate the mtimes of the cruft pack *.mtimes files themselves.
    (Note that this does not affect what is pruned further down in the
    test, but is done to ensure that the cruft packs are rewritten
    during that step).

  - Then repack with --cruft-expiration=10.seconds.ago, expecting to
    prune one of the three unreachable objects written in the first
    step.

  - Assert that the surviving cruft packs were rewritten, object $foo is
    pruned, and unreachable objects $bar, and $baz remain in the
    repository.

If longer than 10 seconds pass between writing the three unreachable
objects (the first step) and the "git repack --cruft" (the fourth step),
we will mistakenly prune more objects than expected, causing the test to
fail.

The $foo object which we expect to prune has its mtime set back to
10,000 seconds relative to the current time, but we prune it with a
cutoff of 10.seconds.ago.

Instead, set the cutoff to be 1,000 seconds to give the test much longer
time to run without failing. This helps platforms where running
individual tests can perform slowly, on my machine this test runs much
more quickly:

    $ hyperfine './t7704-repack-cruft.sh --run=9'
    Benchmark 1: ./t7704-repack-cruft.sh --run=9
      Time (mean ± σ):     647.4 ms ±  30.7 ms    [User: 528.5 ms, System: 124.1 ms]
      Range (min … max):   594.1 ms … 696.5 ms    10 runs

Kyle Lippincott ec60bb9fc4 t6421: fix test to work when repo dir contains d0
The `grep` statement in this test looks for `d0.*<string>`, attempting
to filter to only show lines that had tabular output where the 2nd
column had `d0` and the final column had a substring of
[`git -c `]`fetch.negotiationAlgorithm`. These lines also have
`child_start` in the 4th column, but this isn't part of the condition.

A subsequent line will have `d1` in the 2nd column, `start` in the 4th
column, and `/path/to/git/git -c fetch.negotiationAlgorihm` in the final
column. If `/path/to/git/git` contains the substring `d0`, then this
line is included by `grep` as well as the desired line, leading to an
effective doubling of the number of lines, and test failures.

Tighten the grep expression to require `d0` to be surrounded by spaces,
and to have the `child_start` label.

Kyle Lippincott b928d57ca9 set errno=0 before strtoX calls
To detect conversion failure after calls to functions like `strtod`, one
can check `errno == ERANGE`. These functions are not guaranteed to set
`errno` to `0` on successful conversion, however. Manual manipulation of
`errno` can likely be avoided by checking that the output pointer
differs from the input pointer, but that's not how other locations, such
as parse.c:139, handle this issue; they set errno to 0 prior to
executing the function.

For every place I could find a strtoX function with an ERANGE check
following it, set `errno = 0;` prior to executing the conversion
function.

René Scharfe 0c4d5aa22d log-tree: use decimal_width()
Reduce code duplication by calling decimal_width() to count the digits
in the number of commits instead of calculating it locally.

It also has the advantage of returning int, which is the exact type
expected by the printf()-like function strbuf_addf() for field width
arguments.

Additionally, decimal_width() supports numbers bigger than 1410065407,
which is (hopefully) just a theoretical advantage.

Jeff King e95d515141 apply: canonicalize modes read from patches
Git stores only canonical modes for blobs. So for a regular file, we
care about only "100644" or "100755" (depending only on the executable
bit), but never modes where the group or other permissions are more
exotic. So never "100664", "100700", etc. When a file in the working
tree has such a mode, we quietly turn it into one of the two canonical
modes, and that's what is stored both in the index and in tree objects.

However, we don't canonicalize modes we read from incoming patches in
git-apply. These may appear in a few lines:

  - "old mode" / "new mode" lines for mode changes

  - "new file mode" lines for newly created files

  - "deleted file mode" for removing files

For "new mode" and for "new file mode", this is harmless. The patch is
asking the result to have a certain mode, but:

  - when we add an index entry (for --index or --cached), it is
    canonicalized as we create the entry, via create_ce_mode().

  - for a working tree file, try_create_file() passes either 0777 or
    0666 to open(), so what you get depends only on your umask, not any
    other bits (aside from the executable bit) in the original mode.

However, for "old mode" and "deleted file mode", there is a minor
annoyance. We compare the patch's expected preimage mode with the
current state. But that current state is always going to be a canonical
mode itself:

  - updating an index entry via --cached will have the canonical mode in
    the index

  - for updating a working tree file, check_preimage() runs the mode
    through ce_mode_from_stat(), which does the usual canonicalization

So if the patch feeds a non-canonical mode, it's impossible for it to
match, and we will always complain with something like:

  file has type 100644, expected 100664

Since this is just a warning, the operation proceeds, but it's
confusing and annoying.

These cases should be pretty rare in practice. Git would never produce a
patch with non-canonical modes itself (since it doesn't store them).
And while we do accept patches from other programs, all of those lines
were invented by Git. So you'd need a program trying to be Git
compatible, but not handling canonicalization the same way. Reportedly
"quilt" is such a program.

We should canonicalize the modes as we read them so that the user never
sees the useless warning.

A few notes on the tests:

  - I've covered instances of all lines for completeness, even though
    the "new mode" / "new file mode" ones behave OK currently.

  - the tests apply patches to both the index and working tree, and
    check the result of both. Again, we know that all of these paths
    canonicalize anyway, but it's giving us extra coverage (although we
    are even less likely to have such a bug now since we canonicalize up
    front).

  - the test patches are missing "index" lines, which is also something
    Git would never produce. But they don't matter for the test, they do
    match the case from quilt we saw in the wild, and they avoid some
    sha1/sha256 complexity.

Chandra Pratap 3a498b49d1 t-reftable-tree: improve the test for infix_walk()
In the current testing setup for infix_walk(), the following
properties of an infix traversal of a tree remain untested:
- every node of the tree must be visited
- every node must be visited exactly once
In fact, only the property 'traversal in increasing order' is tested.
Modify test_infix_walk() to check for all the properties above.

This can be achieved by storing the nodes' keys linearly, in a nullified
buffer, as we visit them and then checking the input keys against this
buffer in increasing order. By checking that the element just after
the last input key is 'NULL' in the output buffer, we ensure that
every node is traversed exactly once.

Chandra Pratap abf1a96773 t-reftable-tree: split test_tree() into two sub-test functions
In the current testing setup, tests for both tree_search() and
infix_walk() defined by reftable/tree.{c, h} are performed by
a single test function, test_tree(). Split tree_test() into
test_tree_search() and test_infix_walk() responsible for
independently testing tree_search() and infix_walk() respectively.
This improves the overall readability of the test file as well as
simplifies debugging.

Note that the last parameter in the tree_search() functiom is
'int insert' which when set, inserts the key if it is not found
in the tree. Otherwise, the function returns NULL for such cases.

While at it, use 'func' to pass function pointers and not '&func'.

reftable/tree_test.c exercises the functions defined in

Also add a comment to help understand the test routine.

Note that this commit mostly moves the test from reftable/ to

Patrick Steinhardt 91d351ec88 refs: drop ref_store-less functions
In c8f815c208 (refs: remove functions without ref store, 2024-05-07), we
have removed functions of the refs subsystem that do not take a ref
store as input parameter. In order to make it easier for folks to figure
out how to replace calls to such functions in in-flight patch series, we
kept their definitions around in an ifdeffed block.

Now that Git v2.46 is out, it is rather unlikely that anybody still has
references to these old functions in their unreleased patches. Let's
thus drop them.

Ryan Hendrickson 0ca365c2ed http: do not ignore proxy path
The documentation for `http.proxy` describes that option, and the
environment variables it overrides, as supporting "the syntax understood
by curl". curl allows SOCKS proxies to use a path to a Unix domain
socket, like `socks5h://localhost/path/to/socket.sock`. Git should
therefore include, if present, the path part of the proxy URL in what it
passes to libcurl.

Patrick Steinhardt 9e89dcb66a builtin/ls-remote: fall back to SHA1 outside of a repo
In c8aed5e8da (repository: stop setting SHA1 as the default object hash,
2024-05-07), we have stopped setting the default hash algorithm for
`the_repository`. Consequently, code that relies on `the_hash_algo` will
now crash when it hasn't explicitly been initialized, which may be the
case when running outside of a Git repository.

It was reported that git-ls-remote(1) may crash in such a way when using
a remote helper that advertises refspecs. This is because the refspec
announced by the helper will get parsed during capability negotiation.
At that point we haven't yet figured out what object format the remote
uses though, so when run outside of a repository then we will fail.

The course of action is somewhat dubious in the first place. Ideally, we
should only parse object IDs once we have asked the remote helper for
the object format. And if the helper didn't announce the "object-format"
capability, then we should always assume SHA256. But instead, we used to
take either SHA1 if there was no repository, or we used the hash of the
local repository, which is wrong.

Arguably though, crashing hard may not be in the best interest of our
users, either. So while the old behaviour was buggy, let's restore it
for now as a short-term fix. We should eventually revisit, potentially
by deferring the point in time when we parse the refspec until after we
have figured out the remote's object hash.

Junio C Hamano 7c7516b8db t0018: remove leftover debugging cruft
The actual file is copied out to /tmp, presumably so that the tester
can inspect it after the test is done, which may have been a useful
debugging aid.

But in the final shape of the test suite, such a code should not
exist.  We cannot even assume that we are allowed to write into /tmp
(our TMPDIR may not even be pointing at it) or read from it for that
matter.

Taylor Blau 615d2de3b4 config.c: avoid segfault with --fixed-value and valueless config
When using `--fixed-value` with a key whose value is left empty (implied
as being "true"), 'git config' may crash when invoked like either of:

    $ git config set --file=config --value=value --fixed-value \
        section.key pattern
    $ git config --file=config --fixed-value section.key value pattern

The original bugreport[1] bisects to 00bbdde141 (builtin/config:
introduce "set" subcommand, 2024-05-06), which is a red-herring, since
the original bugreport uses the new 'git config set' invocation.

The behavior likely bisects back to c90702a1f6 (config: plumb
--fixed-value into config API, 2020-11-25), which introduces the new
--fixed-value option in the first place.

Looking at the relevant frame from a failed process's coredump, the
crash appears in config.c::matches() like so:

    (gdb) up
    #1  0x000055b3e8b06022 in matches (key=0x55b3ea894360 "section.key", value=0x0,
        store=0x7ffe99076eb0) at config.c:2884
    2884			return !strcmp(store->fixed_value, value);

where we are trying to compare the `--fixed-value` argument to `value`,
which is NULL.

Avoid attempting to match `--fixed-value` for configuration keys with no
explicit value. A future patch could consider the empty value to mean
"true", "yes", "on", etc. when invoked with `--type=bool`, but let's
punt on that for now in the name of avoiding the segfault.
