Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy 29bc480aa1 ls-remote.txt: delete unsupported option
-u <exec> has never been supported, but it was mentioned since
0a2bb55 (git ls-remote: make usage string match manpage -
2008-11-11). Nobody has complained about it for seven years, it's
probably safe to say nobody cares. So let's remove "-u" in documents
instead of adding code to support it.

While at there, fix --upload-pack syntax too.

Blake Burkhart f4113cac0c http: limit redirection to protocol-whitelist
Previously, libcurl would follow redirection to any protocol
it was compiled for support with. This is desirable to allow
redirection from HTTP to HTTPS. However, it would even
successfully allow redirection from HTTP to SFTP, a protocol
that git does not otherwise support at all. Furthermore
git's new protocol-whitelisting could be bypassed by
following a redirect within the remote helper, as it was
only enforced at transport selection time.

This patch limits redirects within libcurl to HTTP, HTTPS,
FTP and FTPS. If there is a protocol-whitelist present, this
list is limited to those also allowed by the whitelist. As
redirection happens from within libcurl, it is impossible
for an HTTP redirect to a protocol implemented within
another remote helper.

When the curl version git was compiled with is too old to
support restrictions on protocol redirection, we warn the
user if GIT_ALLOW_PROTOCOL restrictions were requested. This
is a little inaccurate, as even without that variable in the
environment, we would still restrict SFTP, etc, and we do
not warn in that case. But anything else means we would
literally warn every time git accesses an http remote.

This commit includes a test, but it is not as robust as we
would hope. It redirects an http request to ftp, and checks
that curl complained about the protocol, which means that we
are relying on curl's specific error message to know what
happened. Ideally we would redirect to a working ftp server
and confirm that we can clone without protocol restrictions,
and not with them. But we do not have a portable way of
providing an ftp server, nor any other protocol that curl
supports (https is the closest, but we would have to deal
with certificates).

[jk: added test and version warning]

Jeff King a5adaced2e transport: add a protocol-whitelist environment variable
If we are cloning an untrusted remote repository into a
sandbox, we may also want to fetch remote submodules in
order to get the complete view as intended by the other
side. However, that opens us up to attacks where a malicious
user gets us to clone something they would not otherwise
have access to (this is not necessarily a problem by itself,
but we may then act on the cloned contents in a way that
exposes them to the attacker).

Ideally such a setup would sandbox git entirely away from
high-value items, but this is not always practical or easy
to set up (e.g., OS network controls may block multiple
protocols, and we would want to enable some but not others).

We can help this case by providing a way to restrict
particular protocols. We use a whitelist in the environment.
This is more annoying to set up than a blacklist, but
defaults to safety if the set of protocols git supports
grows). If no whitelist is specified, we continue to default
to allowing all protocols (this is an "unsafe" default, but
since the minority of users will want this sandboxing
effect, it is the only sensible one).

A note on the tests: ideally these would all be in a single
test file, but the git-daemon and httpd test infrastructure
is an all-or-nothing proposition rather than a test-by-test
prerequisite. By putting them all together, we would be
unable to test the file-local code on machines without
apache.

Jacob Keller e14c92e841 notes: correct documentation of DWIMery for notes references
expand_notes_ref is used by --ref from git-notes(1) and --notes from the
git log to find the full refname of a notes reference. Previously the
documentation of these options was not clear about what sorts of
expansions would be performed. Fix the documentation to clearly and
accurately describe the behavior of the expansions.

Add a test for this expansion when using git notes get-ref in order to
prevent future patches from changing this behavior.

Matthieu Moy 2b594bf90d Documentation: explain optional arguments better
Improve the documentation of commands taking optional arguments in two
ways:

* Documents the behavior of '-O' (for grep) and '-S' (for commands
  creating commits) when used without the optional argument.

* Document the syntax of these options.

For the second point, the behavior is documented in gitcli(7), but it is
easy for users to miss, and hard for the same user to understand why e.g.
"git status -u no" does not work.

Document this explicitly in the documentation of each short option having
an optional argument: they are the most error prone since there is no '='
sign between the option and its argument.

Jeff King 1c9b659d98 pack-protocol: clarify LF-handling in PKT-LINE()
The spec is very inconsistent about which PKT-LINE() parts
of the grammar include a LF. On top of that, the code is not
consistent, either (e.g., send-pack does not put newlines
into the ref-update commands it sends).

Let's make explicit the long-standing expectation that we
generally expect pkt-lines to end in a newline, but that
receivers should be lenient. This makes the spec consistent,
and matches what git already does (though it does not always
fulfill the SHOULD).

We do make an exception for the push-cert, where the
receiving code is currently a bit pickier. This is a
reasonable way to be, as the data needs to be byte-for-byte
compatible with what was signed. We _could_ make up some
rules about signing a canonicalized version including
newlines, but that would require a code change, and is out
of scope for this patch.

SZEDER Gábor 2bd07065c3 describe --contains: default to HEAD when no commit-ish is given
'git describe --contains' doesn't default to HEAD when no commit is
given, and it doesn't produce any output, not even an error:

  ~/src/git ((v2.5.0))$ ./git describe --contains
  ~/src/git ((v2.5.0))$ ./git describe --contains HEAD
  v2.5.0^0

Unlike other 'git describe' options, the '--contains' code path is
implemented by calling 'name-rev' with a bunch of options plus all the
commit-ishes that were passed to 'git describe'.  If no commit-ish was
present, then 'name-rev' got invoked with none, which then leads to the
behavior illustrated above.

Porcelain commands usually default to HEAD when no commit-ish is given,
and 'git describe' already does so in all other cases, so it should do
so with '--contains' as well.

Pass HEAD to 'name-rev' when no commit-ish is given on the command line
to make '--contains' behave consistently with other 'git describe'
options.  While at it, use argv_array_pushv() instead of the loop to
pass commit-ishes to 'git name-rev'.

'git describe's short help already indicates that the commit-ish is
optional, but the synopsis in the man page doesn't, so update it
accordingly as well.

Jeff King 2aea7a51a1 rev-list: make it obvious that we do not support notes
The rev-list command does not have the internal
infrastructure to display notes. Running:

  git rev-list --notes HEAD

will silently ignore the "--notes" option. Running:

  git rev-list --notes --grep=. HEAD

will crash on an assert. Running:

  git rev-list --format=%N HEAD

will place a literal "%N" in the output (it does not even
expand to an empty string).

Let's have rev-list tell the user that it cannot fill the
user's request, rather than silently producing wrong data.
Likewise, let's remove mention of the notes options from the
rev-list documentation.

special characters in the option name while forbidding them from

Heiko Voigt 851e18c385 submodule: use new config API for worktree configurations
We remove the extracted functions and directly parse into and read out
of the cache. This allows us to have one unified way of accessing
submodule configuration values specific to single submodules. Regardless
whether we need to access a configuration from history or from the
worktree.

Heiko Voigt 959b5455d0 submodule: implement a config API for lookup of .gitmodules values
In a superproject some commands need to interact with submodules. They
need to query values from the .gitmodules file either from the worktree
of from certain revisions. At the moment this is quite hard since a
caller would need to read the .gitmodules file from the history and then
parse the values. We want to provide an API for this so we have one
place to get values from .gitmodules from any revision (including the
worktree).

The API is realized as a cache which allows us to lazily read
.gitmodules configurations by commit into a runtime cache which can then
be used to easily lookup values from it. Currently only the values for
path or name are stored but it can be extended for any value needed.

It is expected that .gitmodules files do not change often between
commits. Thats why we lookup the .gitmodules sha1 from a commit and then
either lookup an already parsed configuration or parse and cache an
unknown one for each sha1. The cache is lazily build on demand for each
requested commit.

This cache can be used for all purposes which need knowledge about
submodule configurations. Example use cases are:

 * Recursive submodule checkout needs to lookup a submodule name from
   its path when a submodule first appears. This needs be done before
   this configuration exists in the worktree.

 * The implementation of submodule support for 'git archive' needs to
   lookup the submodule name to generate the archive when given a
   revision that is not checked out.

 * 'git fetch' when given the --recurse-submodules=on-demand option (or
   configuration) needs to lookup submodule names by path from the
   database rather than reading from the worktree. For new submodule it
   needs to lookup the name from its path to allow cloning new
   submodules into the .git folder so they can be checked out without
   any network interaction when the user does a checkout of that
   revision.

Jacob Keller 4f655e22b7 notes: teach git-notes about notes.<name>.mergeStrategy option
Teach notes about a new "notes.<name>.mergeStrategy" option for
configuring the notes merge strategy when merging into
refs/notes/<name>. This option allows for the selection of merge
strategy for particular notes refs, rather than all notes ref merges, as
user may not want cat_sort_uniq for all refs, but only some. Note that
the <name> is the local reference we are merging into, not the remote
ref we merged from. The assumption is that users will mostly want to
configure separate local ref merge strategies rather than strategies
depending on which remote ref they merge from.

notes.<name>.mergeStrategy overrides the general behavior as it is more
specific.

SZEDER Gábor 578625fa91 config: add '--name-only' option to list only variable names
'git config' can only show values or name-value pairs, so if a shell
script needs the names of set config variables it has to run 'git config
--list' or '--get-regexp' and parse the output to separate config
variable names from their values.  However, such a parsing can't cope
with multi-line values.  Though 'git config' can produce null-terminated
output for newline-safe parsing, that's of no use in such a case, becase
shells can't cope with null characters.

Even our own bash completion script suffers from these issues.

Help the completion script, and shell scripts in general, by introducing
the '--name-only' option to modify the output of '--list' and
'--get-regexp' to list only the names of config variables, so they don't
have to perform error-prone post processing to separate variable names
from their values anymore.

Jeff King 2bc31d1631 refs: support negative transfer.hideRefs
If you hide a hierarchy of refs using the transfer.hideRefs
config, there is no way to later override that config to
"unhide" it. This patch implements a "negative" hide which
causes matches to immediately be marked as unhidden, even if
another match would hide it. We take care to apply the
matches in reverse-order from how they are fed to us by the
config machinery, as that lets our usual "last one wins"
config precedence work (and entries in .git/config, for
example, will override /etc/gitconfig).

So you can now do:

  $ git config --system transfer.hideRefs refs/secret
  $ git config transfer.hideRefs '!refs/secret/not-so-secret'

to hide refs/secret in all repos, except for one public bit
in one specific repo. Or you can even do:

  $ git clone \
      -u "git -c transfer.hiderefs="!refs/foo" upload-pack" \
      remote:repo.git

to clone remote:repo.git, overriding any hiding it has
configured.

There are two alternatives that were considered and
rejected:

  1. A generic config mechanism for removing an item from a
     list. E.g.: (e.g., "[transfer] hideRefs -= refs/foo").

     This is nice because it could apply to other
     multi-valued config, as well. But it is not nearly as
     flexible. There is no way to say:

       [transfer]
       hideRefs = refs/secret
       hideRefs = refs/secret/not-so-secret

     Having explicit negative specifications means we can
     override previous entries, even if they are not the
     same literal string.

  2. Adding another variable to override some parts of
     hideRefs (e.g., "exposeRefs").

     This solves the problem from alternative (1), but it
     cannot easily obey the normal config precedence,
     because it would use two separate lists. For example:

       [transfer]
       hideRefs = refs/secret
       exposeRefs = refs/secret/not-so-secret
       hideRefs = refs/secret/not-so-secret/no-really-its-secret

     With two lists, we have to apply the "expose" rules
     first, and only then apply the "hide" rules. But that
     does not match what the above config intends.

     Of course we could internally parse that to a single
     list, respecting the ordering, which saves us having to
     invent the new "!" syntax. But using a single name
     communicates to the user that the ordering _is_
     important. And "!" is well-known for negation, and
     should not appear at the beginning of a ref (it is
     actually valid in a ref-name, but all entries here
     should be fully-qualified, starting with "refs/").
