When "git fetch" encounters repositories with too many references, the
command line of "fetch-pack" that is run by a helper e.g. remote-curl, may
fail to hold all of them. Now such an internal invocation can feed the
references through the standard input of "fetch-pack".

remote-curl: main test case for the OS command line overflow

The send_pack function gets a "progress" flag saying "yes,
definitely show progress" or "no, definitely do not show
progress". This gets set properly by transport_push when
send_pack is called directly.
However, when the send-pack command is executed separately
(as it is for the remote-curl helper), there is no way to
tell it "definitely do this". As a result, we do not
properly respect "git push --no-progress" for smart-http
remotes; you will still get progress if stderr is a tty.
This patch teaches send-pack --progress and --no-progress,
and teaches remote-curl to pass the appropriate option to
override send-pack's isatty check. This fixes the
--no-progress case above, and as a bonus, also makes "git
push --progress" work when stderr is not a tty.

The protocol between transport-helper.c and remote-curl requires
remote-curl to always print a blank line after the push command
has run. If the blank line is ommitted, transport-helper kills its
container process (the git push the user started) with exit(128)
and no message indicating a problem, assuming the helper already
printed reasonable error text to the console.
However if the remote rejects all branches with "ng" commands in the
report-status reply, send-pack terminates with non-zero status, and
in turn remote-curl exited with non-zero status before outputting
the blank line after the helper status printed by send-pack. No
error messages reach the user.
This caused users to see the following from git push over HTTP
when the remote side's update hook rejected the branch:
$ git push http://... master
Counting objects: 4, done.
Delta compression using up to 6 threads.
Compressing objects: 100% (2/2), done.
Writing objects: 100% (3/3), 301 bytes, done.
Total 3 (delta 0), reused 0 (delta 0)
$
Always print a blank line after the send-pack process terminates,
ensuring the helper status report (if it was output) will be
correctly parsed by the calling transport-helper.c. This ensures
the helper doesn't abort before the status report can be shown to
the user.

This change instead adds a 'quiet' capability to receive-pack,

When receive-pack advertises its list of refs, it generally hides the
capabilities information after a NUL at the end of the first ref.
However, when we have an empty repository, there are no refs, and
therefore receive-pack writes a fake ref "capabilities^{}" with the
capabilities afterwards.
On the client side, git reads the result with get_remote_heads(). We pick
the capabilities from the end of the line, and then call check_ref() to
make sure the ref name is valid. We see that it isn't, and don't bother
adding it to our list of refs.
However, the call to check_ref() is enabled by passing the REF_NORMAL flag
to get_remote_heads. For the regular git transport, we pass REF_NORMAL in
get_refs_via_connect() if we are doing a push (since only receive-pack
uses this fake ref). But in remote-curl, we never use this flag, and we
accept the fake ref as a real one, passing it back from the helper to the
parent git-push.
Most of the time this bug goes unnoticed, as the fake ref won't match our
refspecs. However, if "--mirror" is used, then we see it as remote cruft
to be pruned, and try to pass along a deletion refspec for it. Of course
this refspec has bogus syntax (because of the ^{}), and the helper
complains, aborting the push.
Let's have remote-curl mirror what the builtin get_refs_via_connect() does
(at least for the case of using git protocol; we can leave the dumb
info/refs reader as it is).
This also fixes pushing with --mirror to a smart-http remote that uses
alternates. The fake ".have" refs the server gives to avoid unnecessary
network transfer has a similar bad interactions with the machinery.

Before commit 986bbc08, git was proactive about asking for
http passwords. It assumed that if you had a username in
your URL, you would also want a password, and asked for it
before making any http requests.
However, this could interfere with the use of .netrc (see
986bbc08 for details). And it was also unnecessary, since
the http fetching code had learned to recognize an HTTP 401
and prompt the user then. Furthermore, the proactive prompt
could interfere with the usage of .netrc (see 986bbc08 for
details).
Unfortunately, the http push-over-DAV code never learned to
recognize HTTP 401, and so was broken by this change. This
patch does a quick fix of re-enabling the "proactive auth"
strategy only for http-push, leaving the dumb http fetch and
smart-http as-is.

The get_remote_heads function reads the list of remote refs
during git protocol session. It dates all the way back to
def88e9 (Commit first cut at "git-fetch-pack", 2005-07-04).
At that time, the idea was to come up with a list of refs we
were interested in, and then filter the list as we got it
from the remote side.
Later, 1baaae5 (Make maximal use of the remote refs,
2005-10-28) stopped filtering at the get_remote_heads layer,
letting us use the non-matching refs to find common history.
As a result, all callers now simply pass an empty match
list (and any future callers will want to do the same). So
let's drop these now-useless parameters.

The http_init function takes a "struct remote". Part of its

grab some auth-related parameters. However, using the url
included in the remote is:
- wrong; the remote-curl helper may have a separate,
unrelated URL (e.g., from remote.*.pushurl). Looking at
the remote's configured url is incorrect.
- incomplete; http-fetch doesn't have a remote, so passes
NULL. So http_init never gets to see the URL we are
actually going to use.
- cumbersome; http-push has a similar problem to
http-fetch, but actually builds a fake remote just to
pass in the URL.
Instead, let's just add a separate URL parameter to
http_init, and all three callsites can pass in the
appropriate information.

When fetching an http URL, we first try fetching info/refs
with an extra "service" parameter. This will work for a
smart-http server, or a dumb server which ignores extra
parameters when fetching files. If that fails, we retry
without the extra parameter to remain compatible with dumb
servers which didn't like our first request.
If the server returned a "401 Unauthorized", indicating that
the credentials we provided were not good, there is not much
point in retrying. With the current code, we just waste an
extra round trip to the HTTP server before failing.
But as the http code becomes smarter about throwing away
rejected credentials and re-prompting the user for new ones
(which it will later in this series), this will become more
confusing. At some point we will stop asking for credentials
to retry smart http, and will be asking for credentials to
retry dumb http. So now we're not only wasting an extra HTTP
round trip for something that is unlikely to work, but we're
making the user re-type their password for it.

The size of objects we read from the repository and data we try to put
into the repository are represented in "unsigned long", so that on larger
architectures we can handle objects that weigh more than 4GB.
But the interface defined in zlib.h to communicate with inflate/deflate
limits avail_in (how many bytes of input are we calling zlib with) and
avail_out (how many bytes of output from zlib are we ready to accept)
fields effectively to 4GB by defining their type to be uInt.
In many places in our code, we allocate a large buffer (e.g. mmap'ing a
large loose object file) and tell zlib its size by assigning the size to
avail_in field of the stream, but that will truncate the high octets of
the real size. The worst part of this story is that we often pass around
z_stream (the state object used by zlib) to keep track of the number of
used bytes in input/output buffer by inspecting these two fields, which
practically limits our callchain to the same 4GB limit.
Wrap z_stream in another structure git_zstream that can express avail_in
and avail_out in unsigned long. For now, just die() when the caller gives
a size that cannot be given to a single zlib call. In later patches in the
series, we would make git_inflate() and git_deflate() internally loop to
give callers an illusion that our "improved" version of zlib interface can
operate on a buffer larger than 4GB in one go.

Some HTTP/1.1 servers or proxies don't correctly implement the
100-Continue feature of HTTP/1.1. Its a difficult feature to
implement right, and isn't commonly used by browsers, so many
developers may not even be aware that their server (or proxy)
doesn't honor it.
Within the smart HTTP protocol for Git we only use this newer
"Expect: 100-Continue" feature to probe for missing authentication
before uploading a large payload like a pack file during push.
If authentication is necessary, we expect the server to send the
401 Not Authorized response before the bulk data transfer starts,
thus saving the client bandwidth during the retry.
A different method to probe for working authentication is to send an
empty command list (that is just "0000") to $URL/git-receive-pack.
or $URL/git-upload-pack. All versions of both receive-pack and
upload-pack since the introduction of smart HTTP in Git 1.6.6
cleanly accept just a flush-pkt under --stateless-rpc mode, and
exit with success.
If HTTP level authentication is successful, the backend will return
an empty response, but with HTTP status code 200. This enables
the client to continue with the transfer.

When an HTTP request returns a 401, Git will currently fail with a
confusing message saying that it got a 401, which is not very
descriptive.
Currently if a user wants to use Git over HTTP, they have to use one
URL with the username in the URL (e.g. "http://user@host.com/repo.git")
for write access and another without the username for unauthenticated
read access (unless they want to be prompted for the password each
time). However, since the HTTP servers will return a 401 if an action
requires authentication, we can prompt for username and password if we
see this, allowing us to use a single URL for both purposes.
This patch changes http_request to prompt for the username and password,
then return HTTP_REAUTH so http_get_strbuf can try again. If it gets
a 401 even when a user/pass is supplied, http_request will now return
HTTP_NOAUTH which remote_curl can then use to display a more
intelligent error message that is less confusing.

When using multi-pass authentication methods, the curl library may need
to rewind the read buffers used for providing data to HTTP POST, if data
has been output before a 401 error is received.
This is needed only when the first request (when the multi-pass
authentication method isn't initialized and hasn't received its challenge
yet) for a certain curl session is a chunked HTTP POST.
As long as the current rpc read buffer is the first one, we're able to
rewind without need for additional buffering.
The curl library currently starts sending data without waiting for a
response to the Expect: 100-continue header, due to a bug in curl that
exists up to curl version 7.19.7.
If the HTTP server doesn't handle Expect: 100-continue headers properly
(e.g. Lighttpd), the library has to start sending data without knowing
if the request will be successfully authenticated. In this case, this
rewinding solution is not sufficient - the whole request will be sent
before the 401 error is received.

This bug usually has no impact on git, but may surface if using multi-pass
authentication methods.

remote-curl.c
The git-remote-curl backend detects if the remote server supports
the git-upload-pack service, and if so, runs git-fetch-pack locally
in a pipe to generate the want/have commands.
The advertisements from the server that were obtained during the
discovery are passed into git-fetch-pack before the POST request
starts, permitting server capability discovery and enablement.
Common objects that are discovered are appended onto the request as
have lines and are sent again on the next request. This allows the
remote side to reinitialize its in-memory list of common objects
during the next request.
Because all requests are relatively short, below git-remote-curl's
1 MiB buffer limit, requests will use the standard Content-Length
header and be valid HTTP/1.0 POST requests. This makes the fetch
client more tolerant of proxy servers which don't support HTTP/1.1
or the chunked transfer encoding.

The git-remote-curl backend detects if the remote server supports
the git-receive-pack service, and if so, runs git-send-pack in a
pipe to dump the command and pack data as a single POST request.
The advertisements from the server that were obtained during the
discovery are passed into git-send-pack before the POST request
starts. This permits git-send-pack to operate largely unmodified.
For smaller packs (those under 1 MiB) a HTTP/1.0 POST with a
Content-Length is used, permitting interaction with any server.
The 1 MiB limit is arbitrary, but is sufficent to fit most deltas
created by human authors against text sources with the occasional
small binary file (e.g. few KiB icon image). The configuration
option http.postBuffer can be used to increase (or shink) this
buffer if the default is not sufficient.
For larger packs which cannot be spooled entirely into the helper's
memory space (due to http.postBuffer being too small), the POST
request requires HTTP/1.1 and sets "Transfer-Encoding: chunked".
This permits the client to upload an unknown amount of data in one
HTTP transaction without needing to pregenerate the entire pack
file locally.

The upload-pack requests are mostly plain text and they compress
rather well. Deflating them with Content-Encoding: gzip can easily
drop the size of the request by 50%, reducing the amount of data
to transfer as we negotiate the common commits.

Instead of loading the cached info/refs, try to use the smart HTTP
version when the server supports it. Since the smart variant is
actually the pkt-line stream from the start of either upload-pack
or receive-pack we need to parse these through get_remote_heads,
which requires a background thread to feed its pipe.

It's okay to use the curl helper without a local repository, so long
as you don't use "fetch". There aren't any git programs that would try
to use it, and it doesn't make sense to try it (since there's nowhere
to write the results), but we may as well be clear.

The remote helper interface now supports the push capability,
which can be used to ask the implementation to push one or more
specs to the remote repository. For remote-curl we implement this
by calling the existing WebDAV based git-http-push executable.
Internally the helper interface uses the push_refs transport hook
so that the complexity of the refspec parsing and matching can be
reused between remote implementations. When possible however the
helper protocol uses source ref name rather than the source SHA-1,
thereby allowing the helper to access this name if it is useful.
>From Clemens Buchacher <drizzd@aon.at>:
update http tests according to remote-curl capabilities
o Pushing packed refs is now fixed.
o The transport helper fails if refs are already up-to-date. Add
a test for that.
o The transport helper will notice if refs are already
up-to-date. We therefore need to update server info in the
unpacked-refs test.
o The transport helper will purge deleted branches automatically.
o Use a variable ($ORIG_HEAD) instead of full SHA-1 name.

Some transports, like the native pack transport implemented by
fetch-pack, support useful features like depth or include tags.
These should be exposed if the underlying helper knows how to
use them.

Some network protocols (e.g. native git://) are able to fetch more
than one ref at a time and reduce the overall transfer cost by
combining the requests into a single exchange. Instead of feeding
each fetch request one at a time to the helper, feed all of them
at once so the helper can decide whether or not it should batch them.

We will need the walker, url and remote in other functions as the
code grows larger to support smart HTTP. Extract this out into a
set of globals we can easily reference once configured.

When we use -b <branch>, we may checkout something else than what the
remote's HEAD references, but we still used remote_head to supply the
new ref value to the post-checkout hook, which is wrong.
So instead of using remote_head to find the value to be passed to the
post-checkout hook, we have to use our_head_points_at, which is always
correctly setup, even if -b is not used.
This also fixes a segfault when "clone -b <branch>" is used with a
remote repo that doesn't have a valid HEAD, as in such a case
remote_head is NULL, but we still tried to access it.

All programs, in particular also the stand-alone programs (non-builtins)
must call git_extract_argv0_path(argv[0]) in order to help builds that
derive the installation prefix at runtime, such as the MinGW build.
Without this call, the program segfaults (or raises an assertion
failure).
