Extract the read_index_data() function from attr.c and move it to
read-cache.c; rename it to read_blob_data_from_index() and update
the function signature of it to align better with index/cache API

This allows for reusing the function in convert.c later.

Junio C Hamano dc09e9ec43 attr.c::path_matches(): special case paths that end with a slash
The function is given a string that ends with a slash to signal that
the path is a directory to make sure that a pattern that ends with a
slash (i.e. MUSTBEDIR) can tell directories and non-directories
apart.  However, the pattern itself (pat->pattern and
pat->patternlen) that came from such a MUSTBEDIR pattern is
represented as a string that ends with a slash, but patternlen does
not count that trailing slash. A MUSTBEDIR pattern "element/" is
represented as a counted string <"element/", 7> and this must match
match pathname "element/".

Because match_basename() and match_pathname() want to see pathname
"element" to match against the pattern <"element/", 7>, reduce the
length of the path to exclude the trailing slash when calling
these functions.

The function takes two strings (pathname and basename) as if they
are independent strings, but in reality, the latter is always
pointing into a substring in the former.

Clarify this relationship by expressing the latter as an offset into

Thomas Rast 8b1bd02415 Make !pattern in .gitattributes non-fatal
Before 82dce99 (attr: more matching optimizations from .gitignore,
2012-10-15), .gitattributes did not have any special treatment of a
leading '!'.  The docs, however, always said

  The rules how the pattern matches paths are the same as in
  `.gitignore` files; see linkgit:gitignore[5].

By those rules, leading '!' means pattern negation.  So 82dce99
correctly determined that this kind of line makes no sense and should
be disallowed.

However, users who actually had a rule for files starting with a '!'
are in a bad position: before 82dce99 '!' matched that literal
character, so it is conceivable that users have .gitattributes with
such lines in them.  After 82dce99 the unescaped version was
disallowed in such a way that git outright refuses to run(!) most
commands in the presence of such a .gitattributes.  It therefore
becomes very hard to fix, let alone work with, such repositories.

Let's at least allow the users to fix their repos: change the fatal
error into a warning.

after finding basename.

Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy 711536bd4b attr: fix off-by-one directory component length calculation
94bc671 (Add directory pattern matching to attributes - 2012-12-08)
uses find_basename() to calculate the length of directory part in
prepare_attr_stack. This function expects the directory without the
trailing slash (as "origin" field in match_attr struct is without the
trailing slash). find_basename() includes the trailing slash and
confuses push/pop algorithm.

Consider path = "abc/def" and the push down code:

	while (1) {
		len = strlen(attr_stack->origin);
		if (dirlen <= len)
			break;
		cp = memchr(path + len + 1, '/', dirlen - len - 1);
		if (!cp)
			cp = path + dirlen;

dirlen is 4, not 3, without this patch. So when attr_stack->origin is
"abc", it'll miss the exit condition because 4 <= 3 is wrong. It'll
then try to push "abc/" down the attr stack (because "cp" would be
NULL). So we have both "abc" and "abc/" in the stack.

Next time when "abc/ghi" is checked, "abc/" is popped out because of
the off-by-one dirlen, only to be pushed back in again by the above
code. This repeats for all files in the same directory. Which means
at least one failed open syscall per file, or more if .gitattributes
exists.

This is the perf result with 10 runs on git.git:

Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy 82dce998c2 attr: more matching optimizations from .gitignore
.gitattributes and .gitignore share the same pattern syntax but has
separate matching implementation. Over the years, ignore's
implementation accumulates more optimizations while attr's stays the
same.

This patch reuses the core matching functions that are also used by
excluded_from_list. excluded_from_list and path_matches can't be
merged due to differences in exclude and attr, for example:

* "!pattern" syntax is forbidden in .gitattributes.  As an attribute
  can be unset (i.e. set to a special value "false") or made back to
  unspecified (i.e. not even set to "false"), "!pattern attr" is unclear
  which one it means.

* we support attaching attributes to directories, but git-core
  internally does not currently make use of attributes on
  directories.

Junio C Hamano 8e950dab86 attr: failure to open a .gitattributes file is OK with ENOTDIR
Often we consult an in-tree .gitattributes file that exists per
directory.  Majority of directories do not usually have such a file,
and it is perfectly fine if we cannot open it because there is no
such file, but we do want to know when there is an I/O or permission
error.  Earlier, we made the codepath warn when we fail to open it
for reasons other than ENOENT for that reason.

We however sometimes have to attempt to open the .gitattributes file
from a directory that does not exist in the commit that is currently
checked out.  "git pack-objects" wants to know if a path is marked
with "-delta" attributes, and "git archive" wants to know about
export-ignore and export-subst attributes.  Both commands may and do
need to ask the attributes system about paths in an arbitrary
commit.  "git diff", after removing an entire directory, may want to
know textconv on paths that used to be in that directory.

Make sure we also ignore a failure to open per-directory attributes
file due to ENOTDIR.

If we don't have a core.attributesfile configured, we fall
back to checking XDG config, which is usually
$HOME/.config/git/attributes.

However, if $HOME is unset, then home_config_paths will return
NULL, and we end up calling fopen(NULL).

Depending on your system, this may or may not cause the
accompanying test to fail (e.g., on Linux and glibc, the
address will go straight to open, which will return EFAULT).

Jeff King 77f7f82288 attr: drop misguided defensive coding
In prepare_attr_stack, we pop the old elements of the stack
(which were left from a previous lookup and may or may not
be useful to us). Our loop to do so checks that we never
reach the top of the stack. However, the code immediately
afterwards will segfault if we did actually reach the top of
the stack.

Fortunately, this is not an actual bug, since we will never
pop all of the stack elements (we will always keep the root
gitattributes, as well as the builtin ones). So the extra
check in the loop condition simply clutters the code and
makes the intent less clear. Let's get rid of it.

Jeff King 1afca44495 attr: don't confuse prefixes with leading directories
When we prepare the attribute stack for a lookup on a path,
we start with the cached stack from the previous lookup
(because it is common to do several lookups in the same
directory hierarchy). So the first thing we must do in
preparing the stack is to pop any entries that point to
directories we are no longer interested in.

For example, if our stack contains gitattributes for:

  foo/bar/baz
  foo/bar
  foo

but we want to do a lookup in "foo/bar/bleep", then we want
to pop the top element, but retain the others.

To do this we walk down the stack from the top, popping
elements that do not match our lookup directory. However,
the test do this simply checked strncmp, meaning we would
mistake "foo/bar/baz" as a leading directory of
"foo/bar/baz_plus". We must also check that the character
after our match is '/', meaning we matched the whole path
component.

There are two special cases to consider:

  1. The top of our attr stack has the empty path. So we
     must not check for '/', but rather special-case the
     empty path, which always matches.

  2. Typically when matching paths in this way, you would
     also need to check for a full string match (i.e., the
     character after is '\0'). We don't need to do so in
     this case, though, because our path string is actually
     just the directory component of the path to a file
     (i.e., we know that it terminates with "/", because the
     filename comes after that).

Brandon Casey 6eba6210d9 attr.c: respect core.ignorecase when matching attribute patterns
When core.ignorecase is true, the file globs configured in the
.gitattributes file should be matched case-insensitively against the paths
in the working directory.  Let's do so.

Plus, add some tests.

The last set of tests is performed only on a case-insensitive filesystem.
Those tests make sure that git handles the case where the .gitignore file
resides in a subdirectory and the user supplies a path that does not match
the case in the filesystem.  In that case^H^H^H^Hsituation, part of the
path supplied by the user is effectively interpreted case-insensitively,
and part of it is dependent on the setting of core.ignorecase.  git will
currently only match the portion of the path below the directory holding
the .gitignore file according to the setting of core.ignorecase.

This is also partly future-proofing.  Currently, git builds the attr stack
based on the path supplied by the user, so we don't have to do anything
special (like use strcmp_icase) to handle the parts of that path that don't
match the filesystem with respect to case.  If git instead built the attr
stack by scanning the repository, then the paths in the origin field would
not necessarily match the paths supplied by the user.  If someone makes a
change like that in the future, these tests will notice.

Junio C Hamano 64589a03a8 attr: read core.attributesfile from git_default_core_config
This code calls git_config from a helper function to parse the config entry
it is interested in.  Calling git_config in this way may cause a problem if
the helper function can be called after a previous call to git_config by
another function since the second call to git_config may reset some
variable to the value in the config file which was previously overridden.

The above is not a problem in this case since the function passed to
git_config only parses one config entry and the variable it sets is not
assigned outside of the parsing function.  But a programmer who desires
all of the standard config options to be parsed may be tempted to modify
git_attr_config() so that it falls back to git_default_config() and then it
_would_ be vulnerable to the above described behavior.

So, move the call to git_config up into the top-level cmd_* function and
move the responsibility for parsing core.attributesfile into the main
config file parser.

Which is only the logical thing to do ;-)

Brandon Casey 040a655116 cleanup: use internal memory allocation wrapper functions everywhere
The "x"-prefixed versions of strdup, malloc, etc. will check whether the
allocation was successful and terminate the process otherwise.

A few uses of malloc were left alone since they already implemented a
graceful path of failure or were in a quasi external library like xdiff.

Additionally, the call to malloc in compat/win32/syslog.c was not modified
since the syslog() implemented there is a die handler and a call to the
x-wrappers within a die handler could result in recursion should memory
allocation fail.  This will have to be addressed separately.

Brandon Casey 97410b27e9 attr.c: avoid inappropriate access to strbuf "buf" member
This code sequence performs a strcpy into the buf member of a strbuf
struct.  The strcpy may move the position of the terminating nul of the
string and effectively change the length of string so that it does not
match the len member of the strbuf struct.

Currently, this sequence works since the strbuf was given a hint when it
was initialized to allocate enough space to accomodate the string that will
be strcpy'ed, but this is an implementation detail of strbufs, not a
guarantee.

So, lets rework this sequence so that the strbuf is only manipulated by
strbuf functions, and direct modification of its "buf" member is not
necessary.

Michael Haggerty d68e1c183c Unroll the loop over passes
The passes no longer share much code, and the unrolled code is easier
to understand.

Use a new index variable instead of num_attr for the second loop, as
we are no longer counting attributes but rather indexing through them.

Michael Haggerty d175129857 Change parse_attr() to take a pointer to struct attr_state
parse_attr() only needs access to the attr_state to which it should
store its results, not to the whole match_attr structure.  This change
also removes the need for it to know num_attr.  Change its signature
accordingly and add a comment.

Michael Haggerty 4c7517c9cc Increment num_attr in parse_attr_line(), not parse_attr()
num_attr is incremented iff parse_attr() returns non-NULL.  So do the
counting in parse_attr_line() instead of within parse_attr().  This
allows an integer rather than a pointer to an integer to be passed to
parse_attr().
