  git-compat-util: add UNUSED macro

5cf88fd8b0 git-compat-util.h: use "UNUSED", not "UNUSED(var)"
As reported in [1] the "UNUSED(var)" macro introduced in
2174b8c75d (Merge branch 'jk/unused-annotation' into next,
2022-08-24) breaks coccinelle's parsing of our sources in files where
it occurs.

Let's instead partially go with the approach suggested in [2] of
making this not take an argument. As noted in [1] "coccinelle" will
ignore such tokens in argument lists that it doesn't know about, and
it's less of a surprise to syntax highlighters.

This undoes the "help us notice when a parameter marked as unused is
actually use" part of 9b24034754 (git-compat-util: add UNUSED macro,
2022-08-19), a subsequent commit will further tweak the macro to
implement a replacement for that functionality.

02c3c59e62 hashmap: mark unused callback parameters
Hashmap comparison functions must conform to a particular callback
interface, but many don't use all of their parameters. Especially the
void cmp_data pointer, but some do not use keydata either (because they
can easily form a full struct to pass when doing lookups). Let's mark
these to make -Wunused-parameter happy.

97e61e0f9c refs: use ref_namespaces for replace refs base
The git_replace_ref_base global is used to store the value of the
GIT_REPLACE_REF_BASE environment variable or the default of
"refs/replace/". This is initialized within setup_git_env().

The ref_namespaces array is a new centralized location for information
such as the ref namespace used for replace refs. Instead of having this
namespace stored in two places, use the ref_namespaces array instead.

For simplicity, create a local git_replace_ref_base variable wherever
the global was previously used.

b9342b3fd6 refs: add array of ref namespaces
Git interprets different meanings to different refs based on their
names. Some meanings are cosmetic, like how refs in  'refs/remotes/*'
are colored differently from refs in 'refs/heads/*'. Others are more
critical, such as how replace refs are interpreted.

Before making behavior changes based on ref namespaces, collect all
known ref namespaces into a array of ref_namespace_info structs. This
array is indexed by the new ref_namespace enum for quick access.

As of this change, this array is purely documentation. Future changes
will add dependencies on this array.

11f9e8de3d cache: use const char * for get_object_directory()
The get_object_directory() method returns the exact string stored at
the_repository->objects->odb->path. The return type of "char *" implies
that the caller must keep track of the buffer and free() it when
complete. This causes significant problems later when the ODB is
accessed.

Use "const char *" as the return type to avoid this confusion. There are
no current callers that care about the non-const definition.

1e0ea5c431 fsmonitor: config settings are repository-specific
Move fsmonitor config settings to a new and opaque
`struct fsmonitor_settings` structure.  Add a lazily-loaded pointer
to this into `struct repo_settings`

Create an `enum fsmonitor_mode` type in `struct fsmonitor_settings` to
represent the state of fsmonitor.  This lets us represent which, if
any, fsmonitor provider (hook or IPC) is enabled.

Create `fsm_settings__get_*()` getters to lazily look up fsmonitor-
related config settings.

Get rid of the `core_fsmonitor` global variable.  Move the code to
lookup the existing `core.fsmonitor` config value into the fsmonitor
settings.

Create a hook pathname variable in `struct fsmonitor-settings` and
only set it when in hook mode.

Extend the definition of `core.fsmonitor` to be either a boolean
or a hook pathname.  When true, the builtin FSMonitor is used.
When false or unset, no FSMonitor (neither builtin nor hook) is
used.

The existing `core_fsmonitor` global variable was used to store the
pathname to the fsmonitor hook *and* it was used as a boolean to see
if fsmonitor was enabled.  This dual usage and global visibility leads
to confusion when we add the IPC-based provider.  So lets hide the
details in fsmonitor-settings.c and let it decide which provider to
use in the case of multiple settings.  This avoids cluttering up
repo-settings.c with these private details.

A future commit in builtin-fsmonitor series will add the ability to
disqualify worktrees for various reasons, such as being mounted from a
remote volume, where fsmonitor should not be started.  Having the
config settings hidden in fsmonitor-settings.c allows such worktree
restrictions to override the config values used.

844a8ad4f8 core.fsync: add configuration parsing
This change introduces code to parse the core.fsync setting and
configure the fsync_components variable.

core.fsync is configured as a comma-separated list of component names to
sync. Each time a core.fsync variable is encountered in the
configuration heirarchy, we start off with a clean state with the
platform default value. Passing 'none' resets the value to indicate
nothing will be synced. We gather all negative and positive entries from
the comma separated list and then compute the new value by removing all
the negative entries and adding all of the positive entries.

We issue a warning for components that are not recognized so that the
configuration code is compatible with configs from future versions of
Git with more repo components.

Complete documentation for the new setting is included in a later patch
in the series so that it can be reviewed once in final form.

020406eaa5 core.fsync: introduce granular fsync control infrastructure
This commit introduces the infrastructure for the core.fsync
configuration knob. The repository components we want to sync
are identified by flags so that we can turn on or off syncing
for specific components.

If core.fsyncObjectFiles is set and the core.fsync configuration
also includes FSYNC_COMPONENT_LOOSE_OBJECT, we will fsync any
loose objects. This picks the strictest data integrity behavior
if core.fsync and core.fsyncObjectFiles are set to conflicting values.

This change introduces the currently unused fsync_component
helper, which will be used by a later patch that adds fsyncing to
the refs backend.

Actual configuration and documentation of the fsync components
list are in other patches in the series to separate review of
the underlying mechanism from the policy of how it's configured.

abf38abec2 core.fsyncmethod: add writeout-only mode
This commit introduces the `core.fsyncMethod` configuration
knob, which can currently be set to `fsync` or `writeout-only`.

The new writeout-only mode attempts to tell the operating system to
flush its in-memory page cache to the storage hardware without issuing a
CACHE_FLUSH command to the storage controller.

Writeout-only fsync is significantly faster than a vanilla fsync on
common hardware, since data is written to a disk-side cache rather than
all the way to a durable medium. Later changes in this patch series will
take advantage of this primitive to implement batching of hardware
flushes.

When git_fsync is called with FSYNC_WRITEOUT_ONLY, it may fail and the
caller is expected to do an ordinary fsync as needed.

On Apple platforms, the fsync system call does not issue a CACHE_FLUSH
directive to the storage controller. This change updates fsync to do
fcntl(F_FULLFSYNC) to make fsync actually durable. We maintain parity
with existing behavior on Apple platforms by setting the default value
of the new core.fsyncMethod option.

ecc7c8841d repo_read_index: add config to expect files outside sparse patterns
Typically with sparse checkouts, we expect files outside the sparsity
patterns to be marked as SKIP_WORKTREE and be missing from the working
tree.  Sometimes this expectation would be violated however; including
in cases such as:
  * users grabbing files from elsewhere and writing them to the worktree
    (perhaps by editing a cached copy in an editor, copying/renaming, or
     even untarring)
  * various git commands having incomplete or no support for the
    SKIP_WORKTREE bit[1,2]
  * users attempting to "abort" a sparse-checkout operation with a
    not-so-early Ctrl+C (updating $GIT_DIR/info/sparse-checkout and the
    working tree is not atomic)[3].
When the SKIP_WORKTREE bit in the index did not reflect the presence of
the file in the working tree, it traditionally caused confusion and was
difficult to detect and recover from.  So, in a sparse checkout, since
af6a51875a (repo_read_index: clear SKIP_WORKTREE bit from files present
in worktree, 2022-01-14), Git automatically clears the SKIP_WORKTREE
bit at index read time for entries corresponding to files that are
present in the working tree.

There is another workflow, however, where it is expected that paths
outside the sparsity patterns appear to exist in the working tree and
that they do not lose the SKIP_WORKTREE bit, at least until they get
modified.  A Git-aware virtual file system[4] takes advantage of its
position as a file system driver to expose all files in the working
tree, fetch them on demand using partial clone on access, and tell Git
to pay attention to them on demand by updating the sparse checkout
pattern on writes.  This means that commands like "git status" only have
to examine files that have potentially been modified, whereas commands
like "ls" are able to show the entire codebase without requiring manual
updates to the sparse checkout pattern.

Thus since af6a51875a, Git with such Git-aware virtual file systems
unsets the SKIP_WORKTREE bit for all files and commands like "git
status" have to fetch and examine them all.

Introduce a configuration setting sparse.expectFilesOutsideOfPatterns to
allow limiting the tracked set of files to a small set once again.  A
Git-aware virtual file system or other application that wants to
maintain files outside of the sparse checkout can set this in a
repository to instruct Git not to check for the presence of
SKIP_WORKTREE files.  The setting defaults to false, so most users of
sparse checkout will still get the benefit of an automatically updating
index to recover from the variety of difficult issues detailed in
af6a51875a for paths with SKIP_WORKTREE set despite the path being
present.

ecd81dfc79 tmp-objdir: disable ref updates when replacing the primary odb
When creating a subprocess with a temporary ODB, we set the
GIT_QUARANTINE_ENVIRONMENT env var to tell child Git processes not
to update refs, since the tmp-objdir may go away.

Introduce a similar mechanism for in-process temporary ODBs when
we call tmp_objdir_replace_primary_odb. Now both mechanisms set
the disable_ref_updates flag on the odb, which is queried by
the ref_transaction_prepare function.

Peff's test case [1] was invoking ref updates via the cachetextconv
setting. That particular code silently does nothing when a ref
update is forbidden. See the call to notes_cache_put in
fill_textconv where errors are ignored.

b3cecf49ea tmp-objdir: new API for creating temporary writable databases
The tmp_objdir API provides the ability to create temporary object
directories, but was designed with the goal of having subprocesses
access these object stores, followed by the main process migrating
objects from it to the main object store or just deleting it.  The
subprocesses would view it as their primary datastore and write to it.

Here we add the tmp_objdir_replace_primary_odb function that replaces
the current process's writable "main" object directory with the
specified one. The previous main object directory is restored in either
tmp_objdir_migrate or tmp_objdir_destroy.

For the --remerge-diff usecase, add a new `will_destroy` flag in `struct
object_database` to mark ephemeral object databases that do not require
fsync durability.

Add 'git prune' support for removing temporary object databases, and
make sure that they have a name starting with tmp_ and containing an
operation-specific name.

412e4caee3 tests: disable fsync everywhere
The "GIT_TEST_FSYNC" environment variable now exists for
disabling fsync() even on packfiles and other "critical" data.

Running "make test -j8 NO_SVN_TESTS=1" on a noisy 8-core system
on an HDD, test runtime drops from ~4 minutes down to ~3 minutes.
Using "GIT_TEST_FSYNC=1" re-enables fsync() for comparison
purposes.

SVN interopability tests are minimally affected since SVN will
still use fsync in various places.

This will also be useful for 3rd-party tools which create
throwaway git repositories of temporary data, but remains
undocumented for end users.

c6b4888b3f environment.c: remove test-specific "ignore_untracked..." variable
Instead of the global ignore_untracked_cache_config variable added in
dae6c322fa (test-dump-untracked-cache: don't modify the untracked
cache, 2016-01-27) we can make use of the new facility to set config
via environment variables added in d8d77153ea (config: allow
specifying config entries via envvar pairs, 2021-01-12).

It's arguably a bit hacky to use setenv() and getenv() to pass
messages between the same program, but since the test helpers are not
the main intended audience of repo-settings.c I think it's better than
hardcoding the test-only special-case in prepare_repo_settings().

This uses the xsetenv() wrapper added in the preceding commit, if we
don't set these in the environment we'll fail in
t7063-status-untracked-cache.sh, but let's fail earlier anyway if that
were to happen.

This breaks any parent process that's potentially using the
GIT_CONFIG_* and GIT_CONFIG_PARAMETERS mechanism to pass one-shot
config setting down to a git subprocess, but in this case we don't
care about the general case of such potential parents. This process
neither spawns other "git" processes, nor is it interested in other
configuration. We might want to pick up other test modes here, but
those will be passed via GIT_TEST_* environment variables.

3540c71ea5 wrapper.c: add x{un,}setenv(), and use xsetenv() in environment.c
Add fatal wrappers for setenv() and unsetenv(). In d7ac12b25d (Add
set_git_dir() function, 2007-08-01) we started checking its return
value, and since 48988c4d0c (set_git_dir: die when setenv() fails,
2018-03-30) we've had set_git_dir_1() die if we couldn't set it.

Let's provide a wrapper for both, this will be useful in many other
places, a subsequent patch will make another use of xsetenv().

The checking of the return value here is over-eager according to
setenv(3) and POSIX. It's documented as returning just -1 or 0, so
perhaps we should be checking -1 explicitly.

Let's just instead die on any non-zero, if our C library is so broken
as to return something else than -1 on error (and perhaps not set
errno?) the worst we'll do is die with a nonsensical errno value, but
we'll want to die in either case.

Let's make these return "void" instead of "int". As far as I can tell
there's no other x*() wrappers that needed to make the decision of
deviating from the signature in the C library, but since their return
value is only used to indicate errors (so we'd die here), we can catch
unreachable code such as

    if (xsetenv(...) < 0)
        [...];

I think it would be OK skip the NULL check of the "name" here for the
calls to die_errno(). Almost all of our setenv() callers are taking a
constant string hardcoded in the source as the first argument, and for
the rest we can probably assume they've done the NULL check
themselves. Even if they didn't, modern C libraries are forgiving
about it (e.g. glibc formatting it as "(null)"), on those that aren't,
well, we were about to die anyway. But let's include the check anyway
for good measure.

realpath is only populated if we execute the git_work_tree_initialized
block. However that block also causes us to return early, meaning we
never actually release the strbuf in the case where we populated it.
Therefore we move all strbuf related code into the block to guarantee
that we can't leak it.

LSAN output from t0095:

Direct leak of 129 byte(s) in 1 object(s) allocated from:

d8d77153ea config: allow specifying config entries via envvar pairs
While we currently have the `GIT_CONFIG_PARAMETERS` environment variable
which can be used to pass runtime configuration data to git processes,
it's an internal implementation detail and not supposed to be used by
end users.

Next to being for internal use only, this way of passing config entries
has a major downside: the config keys need to be parsed as they contain
both key and value in a single variable. As such, it is left to the user
to escape any potentially harmful characters in the value, which is
quite hard to do if values are controlled by a third party.

This commit thus adds a new way of adding config entries via the
environment which gets rid of this shortcoming. If the user passes the
`GIT_CONFIG_COUNT=$n` environment variable, Git will parse environment
variable pairs `GIT_CONFIG_KEY_$i` and `GIT_CONFIG_VALUE_$i` for each
`i` in `[0,n)`.

While the same can be achieved with `git -c <name>=<value>`, one may
wish to not do so for potentially sensitive information. E.g. if one
wants to set `http.extraHeader` to contain an authentication token,
doing so via `-c` would trivially leak those credentials via e.g. ps(1),
which typically also shows command arguments.

The `getenv_safe()` helper function helps to safely retrieve multiple

function in a following patch, so let's make it available by making it

9a53219f69 config: drop git_config_get_string_const()
As evidenced by the leak fixes in the previous commit, the "const" in
git_config_get_string_const() clearly misleads people into thinking that
it does not allocate a copy of the string. We can fix this by renaming
it, but it's easier still to just drop it. Of the four remaining
callers:

  - The one in git_config_parse_expiry() still needs to allocate, since
    that's what its callers expect. We can just use the non-const
    version and cast our pointer. Slightly ugly, but the damage is
    contained in one spot.

  - The two in apply are writing to global "const char *" variables, and
    need to continue allocating. We often mark these as const because we
    assign default string literals to them. But in this case we don't do
    that, so we can just declare them as real "char *" pointers and use
    the non-const version.

  - The call in checkout doesn't actually need a copy; it can just use
    the non-allocating "tmp" version of the function.

The function is also mentioned in the MyFirstContribution document. We
can swap that call out for the non-allocating "tmp" variant, which fits
well in the example given.

We'll drop the "configset" and "repo" variants, as well (which are
unused).

Note that this frees up the "const" name, so we could rename the "tmp"
variant back to that. But let's give some time for topics in flight to
adapt to the new code before doing so (if we do it too soon, the
function semantics will change but the compiler won't alert us).

d70a9eb611 strvec: rename struct fields
The "argc" and "argv" names made sense when the struct was argv_array,
but now they're just confusing. Let's rename them to "nr" (which we use
for counts elsewhere) and "v" (which is rather terse, but reads well
when combined with typical variable names like "args.v").

Note that we have to update all of the callers immediately. Playing
tricks with the preprocessor is hard here, because we wouldn't want to
rewrite unrelated tokens.

ef8d7ac42a strvec: convert more callers away from argv_array name
We eventually want to drop the argv_array name and just use strvec
consistently. There's no particular reason we have to do it all at once,
or care about interactions between converted and unconverted bits.
Because of our preprocessor compat layer, the names are interchangeable
to the compiler (so even a definition and declaration using different
names is OK).

This patch converts remaining files from the first half of the alphabet,
to keep the diff to a manageable size.

The conversion was done purely mechanically with:

  git ls-files '*.c' '*.h' |
  xargs perl -i -pe '
    s/ARGV_ARRAY/STRVEC/g;
    s/argv_array/strvec/g;
  '

and then selectively staging files with "git add '[abcdefghjkl]*'".
We'll deal with any indentation/style fallouts separately.

120ad2b0f1 shallow: extract a header file for shallow-related functions
There are many functions in commit.h that are more related to shallow
repositories than they are to any sort of generic commit machinery.
Likely this began when there were only a few shallow-related functions,
and commit.h seemed a reasonable enough place to put them.

But, now there are a good number of shallow-related functions, and
placing them all in 'commit.h' doesn't make sense.

This patch extracts a 'shallow.h', which takes all of the declarations
from 'commit.h' for functions which already exist in 'shallow.c'. We
will bring the remaining shallow-related functions defined in 'commit.c'
in a subsequent patch.

For now, move only the ones that already are implemented in 'shallow.c',
and update the necessary includes.

3d7747e318 real_path: remove unsafe API
Returning a shared buffer invites very subtle bugs due to reentrancy or
multi-threading, as demonstrated by the previous patch.

There was an unfinished effort to abolish this [1].

Let's finally rid of `real_path()`, using `strbuf_realpath()` instead.

This patch uses a local `strbuf` for most places where `real_path()` was
previously called.

However, two places return the value of `real_path()` to the caller. For
them, a `static` local `strbuf` was added, effectively pushing the
problem one level higher:
    read_gitfile_gently()
    get_superproject_working_tree()

0915a5b4cd set_git_dir: fix crash when used with real_path()
`real_path()` returns result from a shared buffer, inviting subtle
reentrance bugs. One of these bugs occur when invoked this way:
    set_git_dir(real_path(git_dir))

In this case, `real_path()` has reentrance:
    real_path
    read_gitfile_gently
    repo_set_gitdir
    setup_git_env
    set_git_dir_1
    set_git_dir

Later, `set_git_dir()` uses its now-dead parameter:
    !is_absolute_path(path)

Fix this by using a dedicated `strbuf` to hold `strbuf_realpath()`.

9102f958ee protect_ntfs: turn on NTFS protection by default
Back in the DOS days, in the FAT file system, file names always
consisted of a base name of length 8 plus a file extension of length 3.
Shorter file names were simply padded with spaces to the full 8.3
format.

Later, the FAT file system was taught to support _also_ longer names,
with an 8.3 "short name" as primary file name. While at it, the same
facility allowed formerly illegal file names, such as `.git` (empty base
names were not allowed), which would have the "short name" `git~1`
associated with it.

For backwards-compatibility, NTFS supports alternative 8.3 short
filenames, too, even if starting with Windows Vista, they are only
generated on the system drive by default.

We addressed the problem that the `.git/` directory can _also_ be
accessed via `git~1/` (when short names are enabled) in 2b4c6efc82
(read-cache: optionally disallow NTFS .git variants, 2014-12-16), i.e.
since Git v1.9.5, by introducing the config setting `core.protectNTFS`
and enabling it by default on Windows.

In the meantime, Windows 10 introduced the "Windows Subsystem for Linux"
(short: WSL), i.e. a way to run Linux applications/distributions in a
thinly-isolated subsystem on Windows (giving rise to many a "2016 is the
Year of Linux on the Desktop" jokes). WSL is getting increasingly
popular, also due to the painless way Linux application can operate
directly ("natively") on files on Windows' file system: the Windows
drives are mounted automatically (e.g. `C:` as `/mnt/c/`).

Taken together, this means that we now have to enable the safe-guards of
Git v1.9.5 also in WSL: it is possible to access a `.git` directory
inside `/mnt/c/` via the 8.3 name `git~1` (unless short name generation
was disabled manually). Since regular Linux distributions run in WSL,
this means we have to enable `core.protectNTFS` at least on Linux, too.

To enable Services for Macintosh in Windows NT to store so-called
resource forks, NTFS introduced "Alternate Data Streams". Essentially,
these constitute additional metadata that are connected to (and copied
with) their associated files, and they are accessed via pseudo file
names of the form `filename:<stream-name>:<stream-type>`.

In a recent patch, we extended `core.protectNTFS` to also protect
against accesses via NTFS Alternate Data Streams, e.g. to prevent
contents of the `.git/` directory to be "tracked" via yet another
alternative file name.

While it is not possible (at least by default) to access files via NTFS
Alternate Data Streams from within WSL, the defaults on macOS when
mounting network shares via SMB _do_ allow accessing files and
directories in that way. Therefore, we need to enable `core.protectNTFS`
on macOS by default, too, and really, on any Operating System that can
mount network shares via SMB/CIFS.

A couple of approaches were considered for fixing this:

1. We could perform a dynamic NTFS check similar to the `core.symlinks`
   check in `init`/`clone`: instead of trying to create a symbolic link
   in the `.git/` directory, we could create a test file and try to
   access `.git/config` via 8.3 name and/or Alternate Data Stream.

2. We could simply "flip the switch" on `core.protectNTFS`, to make it
   "on by default".

The obvious downside of 1. is that it won't protect worktrees that were
clone with a vulnerable Git version already. We considered patching code
paths that check out files to check whether we're running on an NTFS
system dynamically and persist the result in the repository-local config
setting `core.protectNTFS`, but in the end decided that this solution
would be too fragile, and too involved.

The obvious downside of 2. is that everybody will have to "suffer" the
performance penalty incurred from calling `is_ntfs_dotgit()` on every
path, even in setups where.

After the recent work to accelerate `is_ntfs_dotgit()` in most cases,
it looks as if the time spent on validating ten million random
file names increases only negligibly (less than 20ms, well within the
standard deviation of ~50ms). Therefore the benefits outweigh the cost.

Another downside of this is that paths that might have been acceptable
previously now will be forbidden. Realistically, though, this is an
improvement because public Git hosters already would reject any `git
push` that contains such file names.

Note: There might be a similar problem mounting HFS+ on Linux. However,
this scenario has been considered unlikely and in light of the cost (in
the aforementioned benchmark, `core.protectHFS = true` increased the
time from ~440ms to ~610ms), it was decided _not_ to touch the default
of `core.protectHFS`.

This change addresses CVE-2019-1353.

879321eb0b sparse-checkout: add 'cone' mode
The sparse-checkout feature can have quadratic performance as
the number of patterns and number of entries in the index grow.
If there are 1,000 patterns and 1,000,000 entries, this time can
be very significant.

Create a new Boolean config option, core.sparseCheckoutCone, to
indicate that we expect the sparse-checkout file to contain a
more limited set of patterns. This is a separate config setting
from core.sparseCheckout to avoid breaking older clients by
introducing a tri-state option.

The config option does nothing right now, but will be expanded
upon in a later commit.

4ca9474efa Move core_partial_clone_filter_default to promisor-remote.c
Now that we can have a different default partial clone filter for
each promisor remote, let's hide core_partial_clone_filter_default
as a static in promisor-remote.c to avoid it being use for
anything other than managing backward compatibility.
