Johannes Schindelin 25fd20eb44 merge-ort/merge-recursive: do report errors in merge_submodule()
In 24876ebf68 (commit-reach(repo_in_merge_bases_many): report missing
commits, 2024-02-28), I taught `merge_submodule()` to handle errors
reported by `repo_in_merge_bases_many()`.

However, those errors were not passed through to the callers. That was
unintentional, and this commit remedies that.

Note that `find_first_merges()` can now also return -1 (because it
passes through that return value from `repo_in_merge_bases()`), and this
commit also adds the forgotten handling for that scenario.

Johannes Schindelin 81a34cbb2e merge-recursive: prepare for merge_submodule() to report errors
The `merge_submodule()` function returns an integer that indicates
whether the merge was clean (returning 1) or unclean (returning 0).

Like the version in `merge-ort.c`, the version in `merge-recursive.c`
does not report any errors (such as repository corruption) by returning
-1 as of time of writing, even if the callers in `merge-ort.c` are
prepared for exactly such errors.

However, we want to teach (both variants of) the `merge_submodule()`
function that trick: to report errors by returning -1. Therefore,
prepare the caller in `merge-recursive.c` to handle that scenario.

Patrick Steinhardt fffd981ec2 reftable/block: fix binary search over restart counter
Records store their keys prefix-compressed. As many records will share a
common prefix (e.g. "refs/heads/"), this can end up saving quite a bit
of disk space. The downside of this is that it is not possible to just
seek into the middle of a block and consume the corresponding record
because it may depend on prefixes read from preceding records.

To help with this usecase, the reftable format writes every n'th record
without using prefix compression, which is called a "restart". The list
of restarts is stored at the end of each block so that a reader can
figure out entry points at which to read a full record without having to
read all preceding records.

This allows us to do a binary search over the records in a block when
searching for a particular key by iterating through the restarts until
we have found the section in which our record must be located. From
thereon we perform a linear search to locate the desired record.

This mechanism is broken though. In `block_reader_seek()` we call
`binsearch()` over the count of restarts in the current block. The
function we pass to compare records with each other computes the key at
the current index and then compares it to our search key by calling
`strbuf_cmp()`, returning its result directly. But `binsearch()` expects
us to return a truish value that indicates whether the current index is
smaller than the searched-for key. And unless our key exactly matches
the value at the restart counter we always end up returning a truish
value.

The consequence is that `binsearch()` essentially always returns 0,
indicacting to us that we must start searching right at the beginning of
the block. This works by chance because we now always do a linear scan
from the start of the block, and thus we would still end up finding the
desired record. But needless to say, this makes the optimization quite
useless.

Fix this bug by returning whether the current key is smaller than the
searched key. As the current behaviour was correct it is not possible to
write a test. Furthermore it is also not really possible to demonstrate
in a benchmark that this fix speeds up seeking records.

This may cause the reader to question whether this binary search makes
sense in the first place if it doesn't even help with performance. But
it would end up helping if we were to read a reftable with a much larger
block size. Blocks can be up to 16MB in size, in which case it will
become much more important to avoid the linear scan. We are not yet
ready to read or write such larger blocks though, so we have to live
without a benchmark demonstrating this.

Patrick Steinhardt 1a03591812 reftable/record: fix memory leak when decoding object records
When decoding records it is customary to reuse a `struct
reftable_ref_record` across calls. Thus, it may happen that the record
already holds some allocated memory. When decoding ref and log records
we handle this by releasing or reallocating held memory. But we fail to
do this for object records, which causes us to leak memory.

Fix this memory leak by releasing object records before we decode into
them. We may eventually want to reuse memory instead to avoid needless
reallocations. But for now, let's just plug the leak and be done.

Florian Schmidt 2541cba2d6 wt-status: don't find scissors line beyond buf len
If

  (a) There is a "---" divider in a commit message,

  (b) At some point beyond that divider, there is a cut-line (that is,
      "# ------------------------ >8 ------------------------") in the
      commit message,

  (c) the user does not explicitly set the "no-divider" option,

then "git interpret-trailers" will hang indefinitively.

This is because when (a) is true, find_end_of_log_message() will invoke
ignored_log_message_bytes() with a len that is intended to make it
ignore the part of the commit message beyond the divider. However,
ignored_log_message_bytes() calls wt_status_locate_end(), and that
function ignores the length restriction when it tries to locate the cut
line. If it manages to find one, the returned cutoff value is greater
than len. At this point, ignored_log_message_bytes() goes into an
infinite loop, because it won't advance the string parsing beyond len,
but the exit condition expects to reach cutoff.

Make wt_status_locate_end() honor the length parameter passed in, to
fix this issue.

In general, if wt_status_locate_end() is given a piece of the memory
that lacks NUL at all, strstr() may continue across page boundaries
and run into an unmapped page.  For our current callers, this is not
a problem, as all of them except one uses a memory owned by a strbuf
(which guarantees an implicit NUL-termination after its payload),
and the one exception in trailer.c:find_end_of_log_message() uses
strlen() to compute the length before calling this function.

Some Git commands fail to emit 'def_param' events for interesting

Add unit tests to demonstrate this.

Most commands are considered "builtin" and are based upon git.c.
These typically do emit 'def_param' events.  Exceptions are some of
the "query" commands, the "run-dashed" mechanism, and alias handling.

Commands built from remote-curl.c (instead of git.c), such as
"git-remote-https", do not emit 'def_param' events.

Likewise, "git-http-fetch" is built http-fetch.c and does not emit
them.

Jeff Hostetler 29c139ce78 fsmonitor: support case-insensitive events
Teach fsmonitor_refresh_callback() to handle case-insensitive
lookups if case-sensitive lookups fail on case-insensitive systems.
This can cause 'git status' to report stale status for files if there
are case issues/errors in the worktree.

The FSMonitor daemon sends FSEvents using the observed spelling
of each pathname.  On case-insensitive file systems this may be
different than the expected case spelling.

The existing code uses index_name_pos() to find the cache-entry for
the pathname in the FSEvent and clear the CE_FSMONITOR_VALID bit so
that the worktree scan/index refresh will revisit and revalidate the
path.

On a case-insensitive file system, the exact match lookup may fail
to find the associated cache-entry. This causes status to think that
the cached CE flags are correct and skip over the file.

Update event handling to optionally use the name-hash and dir-name-hash
if necessary.

Also update t7527 to convert the "test_expect_failure" to "_success"
now that we have fixed the bug.

Create a new function to clear the bit and add some unique tracing for
it to help debug edge cases.

This is similar to the existing `mark_fsmonitor_invalid()` function,

handled that in the refresh-callback handlers, so but we don't need

Kristoffer Haugsbakk 8fbd903e58 branch: advise about ref syntax rules
git-branch(1) will error out if you give it a bad ref name. But the user
might not understand why or what part of the name is illegal.

The user might know that there are some limitations based on the *loose
ref* format (filenames), but there are also further rules for
easier integration with shell-based tools, pathname expansion, and
playing well with reference name expressions.

The man page for git-check-ref-format(1) contains these rules. Let’s
advise about it since that is not a command that you just happen
upon. Also make this advise configurable since you might not want to be

Kristoffer Haugsbakk 3ccc4782ce advice: use backticks for verbatim
Use backticks for inline-verbatim rather than single quotes. Also quote
the unquoted ref globs.

Also replace “the add command” with “`git add`”.

Kristoffer Haugsbakk 95c987e6fa advice: make all entries stylistically consistent
In general, rewrite entries to the following form:

1. Clause or sentence describing when the advice is shown
2. Optional “to <verb>” clause which says what the advice is
   about (e.g. for resetNoRefresh: tell the user that they can use
   `--no-refresh`)

Concretely:

1. Use “shown” instead of “advice shown”
   • “advice” is implied and a bit repetitive
2. Use “when” instead of “if”
3. Lead with “Shown when” and end the entry with the effect it has,
   where applicable
4. Use “the user” instead of “a user” or “you”
5. implicitIdentity: rewrite description in order to lead with *when*
   the advice is shown (see point (3))
6. Prefer the present tense (with the exception of pushNonFFMatching)
7. waitingForEditor: give example of relevance in this new context
8. pushUpdateRejected: exception to the above principles

Kristoffer Haugsbakk 8c5001c68e t3200: improve test style
Some tests use a preliminary heredoc for `expect` or have setup and
teardown commands before and after, respectively. It is however
preferred to keep all the logic in the test itself. Let’s move these
into the tests.

Also:

• Remove a now-irrelevant comment about test placement and switch back
  to `main` post-test
• Prefer indented literal heredocs (`-\EOF`) except for a block which
  says that this is intentional

d3b3419f8f (config: tell the user that we expect an ASCII character,
2023-03-27) updated an error message to make clear that this option
specifically wants an ASCII character but neglected to consider the
config documentation.
