dd84e528a3 git-send-email: die if sendmail.* config is set
I've seen several people mis-configure git send-email on their first
attempt because they set the sendmail.* config options - not
sendemail.*. This patch detects this mistake and bails out with a
friendly warning.

bcbb44ba05 Git.pm: make hash size independent
The cat_blob function was matching on exactly 40 hex characters.  This
won't work with SHA-256, which uses 64-character hex object IDs.  While
it should be fine to simply match any number of hex characters since the
output is space delimited, be extra safe by matching either exactly 40
or exactly 64 hex characters.

51db271587 git-svn: avoid warning on undef readline()
Change code in Git.pm that sometimes calls chomp() on undef to only do
so the value is defined.

This code has been chomping undef values ever since it was added in
b26098fc2f ("git-svn: reduce scope of input record separator change",
2016-10-14), but started warning due to the introduction of "use
warnings" to Git.pm in my f0e19cb7ce ("Git.pm: add the "use warnings"
pragma", 2018-02-25) released with 2.17.0.

Since this function will return undef in those cases it's still
possible that the code using it will warn if it does a chomp of its
own, as the code added in b26098fc2f ("git-svn: reduce scope of input
record separator change", 2016-10-14) might do, but since git-svn has
"use warnings" already that's clearly not a codepath that's going to
warn.

28654678cf perl: move CPAN loader wrappers to another namespace
Move the Git::Error and Git::Mail::Address wrappers to the
Git::LoadCPAN::Loader::* namespace, e.g. Git::LoadCPAN::Error. That
module will then either load Error from CPAN (if installed on the OS),
or use Git::FromCPAN::Error.

When I added the Error wrapper in 20d2a30f8f ("Makefile: replace
perl/Makefile.PL with simple make rules", 2017-12-10) I didn't think
about how confusing it would be to have these modules sitting in the
same tree as our normal modules. Let's put these all into
Git::{Load,From}CPAN::* to clearly distinguish them from the rest.

This also makes things a bit less confusing since there was already a
Git::Error namespace ever since 8b9150e3e3 ("Git.pm: Handle failed
commands' output", 2006-06-24).

29118b37eb Git.pm: hard-depend on the File::{Temp,Spec} modules
Since my d48b284183 ("perl: bump the required Perl version to 5.8 from
5.6.[21]", 2010-09-24), we've depended on 5.8, so there's no reason to
conditionally require File::Temp and File::Spec anymore. They were
first released with perl versions v5.6.1 and 5.00405, respectively.

This code was originally added in c14c8ceb13 ("Git.pm: Make File::Spec

Git.pm work on 5.6.0.

f0e19cb7ce Git.pm: add the "use warnings" pragma
Amend Git.pm to load the "warnings" pragma like the rest of the code
in perl/ in addition to the existing "strict" pragma. This is
considered the bare minimum best practice in Perl.

Ever since this code was introduced in b1edc53d06 ("Introduce
Git.pm (v4)", 2006-06-24) it's only been using "strict", not
"warnings".

This leaves contrib/buildsystems/Generators/{QMake,VCproj}.pm and
contrib/mw-to-git/Git/Mediawiki.pm without "use warnings". Amending
those would be a sensible follow-up change, but I don't have an easy
way to test those so I'm not changing them.

872ba001f8 Git.pm: remove redundant "use strict" from sub-package
In Perl the "use strict/warnings" pragmas are lexical, thus there's no
reason to do:

    package Foo;
    use strict;
    package Bar;
    use strict;
    $x = 5;

To satisfy the desire that the undeclared $x variable will be spotted
at compile-time. It's enough to include the first "use strict".

This functionally changes nothing, but makes a subsequent change where
"use warnings" will be added to Git.pm less confusing and less
verbose, since as with "strict" we'll only need to do that at the top
of the file.

Changes code initially added in a6065b548f ("Git.pm: Try to support
ActiveState output pipe", 2006-06-25).

a40e06ee33 perl: call timegm and timelocal with 4-digit year
Amazingly, timegm(gmtime(0)) is only 0 before 2020 because perl's
timegm deviates from GNU timegm(3) in how it handles years.

man Time::Local says

 Whenever possible, use an absolute four digit year instead.

with a detailed explanation about ambiguity of 2-digit years above that.

Even though this ambiguity is error-prone with >50% of users getting it
wrong, it has been like this for 20+ years, so we just use 4-digit years
everywhere to be on the safe side.

We add some extra logic to cvsimport because it allows 2-digit year
input and interpreting an 18 as 1918 can be avoided easily and safely.

20d2a30f8f Makefile: replace perl/Makefile.PL with simple make rules
Replace the perl/Makefile.PL and the fallback perl/Makefile used under
NO_PERL_MAKEMAKER=NoThanks with a much simpler implementation heavily
inspired by how the i18n infrastructure's build process works[1].

The reason for having the Makefile.PL in the first place is that it
was initially[2] building a perl C binding to interface with libgit,
this functionality, that was removed[3] before Git.pm ever made it to
the master branch.

We've since since started maintaining a fallback perl/Makefile, as
MakeMaker wouldn't work on some platforms[4]. That's just the tip of
the iceberg. We have the PM.stamp hack in the top-level Makefile[5] to
detect whether we need to regenerate the perl/perl.mak, which I fixed
just recently to deal with issues like the perl version changing from
under us[6].

There is absolutely no reason for why this needs to be so complex
anymore. All we're getting out of this elaborate Rube Goldberg machine
was copying perl/* to perl/blib/* as we do a string-replacement on
the *.pm files to hardcode @@LOCALEDIR@@ in the source, as well as
pod2man-ing Git.pm & friends.

So replace the whole thing with something that's pretty much a copy of
how we generate po/build/**.mo from po/*.po, just with a small sed(1)
command instead of msgfmt. As that's being done rename the files
from *.pm to *.pmc just to indicate that they're generated (see
"perldoc -f require").

While I'm at it, change the fallback for Error.pm from being something
where we'll ship our own Error.pm if one doesn't exist at build time
to one where we just use a Git::Error wrapper that'll always prefer
the system-wide Error.pm, only falling back to our own copy if it
really doesn't exist at runtime. It's now shipped as
Git::FromCPAN::Error, making it easy to add other modules to
Git::FromCPAN::* in the future if that's needed.

Functional changes:

 * This will not always install into perl's idea of its global
   "installsitelib". This only potentially matters for packagers that
   need to expose Git.pm for non-git use, and as explained in the
   INSTALL file there's a trivial workaround.

 * The scripts themselves will 'use lib' the target directory, but if
   INSTLIBDIR is set it overrides it. It doesn't have to be this way,
   it could be set in addition to INSTLIBDIR, but my reading of [7] is
   that this is the desired behavior.

 * We don't build man pages for all of the perl modules as we used to,
   only Git(3pm). As discussed on-list[8] that we were building
   installed manpages for purely internal APIs like Git::I18N or
   private-Error.pm was always a bug anyway, and all the Git::SVN::*
   ones say they're internal APIs.

   There are apparently external users of Git.pm, but I don't expect
   there to be any of the others.

   As a side-effect of these general changes the perl documentation
   now only installed by install-{doc,man}, not a mere "install" as
   before.

e3fdbcc8e1 parse_mailboxes: accept extra text after <...> address
The test introduced in this commit succeeds without the patch to Git.pm
if Mail::Address is installed, but fails otherwise because our in-house
parser does not accept any text after the email address. They succeed
both with and without Mail::Address after this commit.

Mail::Address accepts extra text and considers it as part of the name,
iff the address is surrounded with <...>. The implementation mimics
this behavior as closely as possible.

This mostly restores the behavior we had before b1c8a11 (send-email:
allow multiple emails using --cc, --to and --bcc, 2015-06-30), but we
keep the possibility to handle comma-separated lists.

888ab716ad Git.pm: stop assuming that absolute paths start with a slash
On Windows, absolute paths never start with a slash, unless a POSIX
emulation layer is used. The latter is the case for MSYS2's Perl that
Git for Windows leverages. However, in the tests we also go through
plain `git.exe`, which does *not* leverage the POSIX emulation layer,
and therefore the paths we pass to Perl may actually be DOS-style paths
such as C:/Program Files/Git.

So let's just use Perl's own way to test whether a given path is
absolute or not instead of home-brewing our own.

This patch partially fixes t7800 and t9700 when running in Git for
Windows' SDK.

parse_address_line had not the same behavior whether the user had
Mail::Address or not. Teach parse_address_line to behave like
Mail::Address.

When the user input is correct, this implementation behaves
exactly like Mail::Address except when there are quotes
inside the name:

  "Jane Do"e <jdoe@example.com>

In this case the result of parse_address_line is:

  With M::A : "Jane Do" e <jdoe@example.com>
  Without   : "Jane Do e" <jdoe@example.com>

When the user input is not correct, the behavior is also mostly
the same.

Unlike Mail::Address, this doesn't parse groups and recursive
commentaries.

eafc2dd59f Git.pm: call tempfile from File::Temp as a regular function
We call File::Temp's "tempfile" function as a class method, but it was
never designed to be called this way. Older versions seemed to
tolerate it, but as of File::Temp 0.23, it blows up like this:

  $ git svn fetch
  'tempfile' can't be called as a method at .../Git.pm line 1117.

Fix it by calling it as a regular function, just inside the File::Temp
namespace.

Closing (not redirecting to /dev/null) the standard error stream is
not a very smart thing to do.  Later open may return file
descriptor #2 for unrelated purpose, and error reporting code may

The actual complaint appears to be a bug in the underlying
implementation.  What's interesting here is that it is apparently
_triggered_ by closing stderr, which results in (from strace)

  write(2, "fatal: Needed a single revision\n", 32) = -1 EBADF (Bad file descriptor)
  write(2, "\0", 1) = -1 EBADF (Bad file descriptor)

Closing stderr is a bad idea anyway: there is a very real chance that
we print fatal error messages to some other file that just happens to
be opened on the now-free FD 2.  So let's not do that.

As pointed out by Eric Wong (thanks), the initial close needs to go:
die() would again write nowhere if we close STDERR beforehand.

712c6adaee Git.pm: fix cat_blob crashes on large files
Read and write each 1024 byte buffer, rather than trying to buffer
the entire content of the file.  We are only copying the contents to
a file descriptor and do not use it ourselves.

Previous code would crash on all files > 2 Gib, when the offset
variable became negative (perhaps below the level of perl),
resulting in a crash.  On a 32 bit system, or a system with low
memory it might crash before reaching 2 GiB due to memory
exhaustion.

This code may leave a partial file behind in case of failure, where
the old code would leave a completely empty file.  Neither version
verifies the correctness of the content.  Calling code must take
care of verification and cleanup.

The body of the loop in command_close_bidi_pipe sub is identical to
what _cmd_close sub does.

Instead of duplicating, refactor _cmd_close so that it accepts a
list of file handles to be closed, which makes it usable with
command_close_bidi_pipe.

75f7b5dfc4 perl/Git.pm: fix get_tz_offset to properly handle DST boundary cases
When passed a local time that was on the boundary of a DST change,
get_tz_offset returned a GMT offset that was incorrect (off by one
hour).  This is because the time was converted to GMT and then back to
a time stamp via timelocal() which cannot disambiguate boundary cases
as noted in its documentation.

Modify this algorithm, using an approach suggested in

  http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/213871

to first convert the timestamp in question to two broken down forms
with localtime() and gmtime(), and then compute what timestamps
these two broken down forms would represent in GMT (i.e. a timezone
that does not have DST issues) by applying timegm() on them.  The
difference between the resulting timestamps is the timezone offset.

This avoids the ambigious conversion and allows a correct time to be
returned on every occassion.

This function has utility outside of the SVN module for any routine
that needs the equivalent of GNU strftime's %z formatting option.
Move it to the top-level Git.pm so that non-SVN modules don't need to
import the SVN module to use it.

The rename makes the purpose of the function clearer.
