4a2dcb1a08 remote: die if branch is not found in repository
In a subsequent commit, we would like external-facing functions to be
able to accept "struct repository" and "struct branch" as a pair. This
is useful for functions like pushremote_for_branch(), which need to take
values from the remote_state and branch, even if branch == NULL.
However, a caller may supply an unrelated repository and branch, which
is not supported behavior.

To prevent misuse, add a die_on_missing_branch() helper function that
dies if a given branch is not from a given repository. Speed up the
existence check by replacing the branches list with a branches_hash
hashmap.

Like read_config(), die_on_missing_branch() is only called from
non-static functions; static functions are less prone to misuse because
they have strong conventions for keeping remote_state and branch in
sync.

085b98f6cd remote: use remote_state parameter internally
Without changing external-facing functions, replace
the_repository->remote_state internally by adding a struct remote_state
parameter.

As a result, external-facing functions are still tied to the_repository,
but most static functions no longer reference
the_repository->remote_state. The exceptions are those that are used in
a way that depends on external-facing functions e.g. the callbacks to
remote_get_1().

fd3cb0501e remote: move static variables into per-repository struct
remote.c does not works with non-the_repository because it stores its
state as static variables. To support non-the_repository, we can use a
per-repository struct for the remotes subsystem.

Prepare for this change by defining a struct remote_state that holds
the remotes subsystem state and move the static variables of remote.c
into the_repository->remote_state.

This introduces no behavioral or API changes.

In a future patch we plan to return the name of an unborn current branch

In preparation for that, encapsulate the existing ref_prefixes
parameter into a struct. The aforementioned unborn current branch will

58a646a368 fetch: extract writing to FETCH_HEAD
When performing a fetch with the default `--write-fetch-head` option, we
write all updated references to FETCH_HEAD while the updates are
performed. Given that updates are not performed atomically, it means
that we we write to FETCH_HEAD even if some or all of the reference
updates fail.

Given that we simply update FETCH_HEAD ad-hoc with each reference, the
logic is completely contained in `store_update_refs` and thus quite hard
to extend. This can already be seen by the way we skip writing to the
FETCH_HEAD: instead of having a conditional which simply skips writing,
we instead open "/dev/null" and needlessly write all updates there.

We are about to extend git-fetch(1) to accept an `--atomic` flag which
will make the fetch an all-or-nothing operation with regards to the
reference updates. This will also require us to make the updates to
FETCH_HEAD an all-or-nothing operation, but as explained doing so is not
easy with the current layout. This commit thus refactors the wa we write
to FETCH_HEAD and pulls out the logic to open, append to, commit and
close the file. While this may seem rather over-the top at first,
pulling out this logic will make it a lot easier to update the code in a
subsequent commit. It also allows us to easily skip writing completely
in case `--no-write-fetch-head` was passed.

99a1f9ae10 push: add reflog check for "--force-if-includes"
Add a check to verify if the remote-tracking ref of the local branch
is reachable from one of its "reflog" entries.

The check iterates through the local ref's reflog to see if there
is an entry for the remote-tracking ref and collecting any commits
that are seen, into a list; the iteration stops if an entry in the
reflog matches the remote ref or if the entry timestamp is older
the latest entry of the remote ref's "reflog". If there wasn't an
entry found for the remote ref, "in_merge_bases_many()" is called
to check if it is reachable from the list of collected commits.

When a local branch that is based on a remote ref, has been rewound
and is to be force pushed on the remote, "--force-if-includes" runs
a check that ensures any updates to the remote-tracking ref that may
have happened (by push from another repository) in-between the time
of the last update to the local branch (via "git-pull", for instance)
and right before the time of push, have been integrated locally
before allowing a forced update.

If the new option is passed without specifying "--force-with-lease",
or specified along with "--force-with-lease=<refname>:<expect>" it
is a "no-op".

c0192df630 refspec: add support for negative refspecs
Both fetch and push support pattern refspecs which allow fetching or
pushing references that match a specific pattern. Because these patterns
are globs, they have somewhat limited ability to express more complex
situations.

For example, suppose you wish to fetch all branches from a remote except
for a specific one. To allow this, you must setup a set of refspecs
which match only the branches you want. Because refspecs are either
explicit name matches, or simple globs, many patterns cannot be
expressed.

Add support for a new type of refspec, referred to as "negative"
refspecs. These are prefixed with a '^' and mean "exclude any ref
matching this refspec". They can only have one "side" which always
refers to the source. During a fetch, this refers to the name of the ref
on the remote. During a push, this refers to the name of the ref on the
local side.

With negative refspecs, users can express more complex patterns. For
example:

 git fetch origin refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/* ^refs/heads/dontwant

will fetch all branches on origin into remotes/origin, but will exclude
fetching the branch named dontwant.

Refspecs today are commutative, meaning that order doesn't expressly
matter. Rather than forcing an implied order, negative refspecs will
always be applied last. That is, in order to match, a ref must match at
least one positive refspec, and match none of the negative refspecs.
This is similar to how negative pathspecs work.

63518a574a New capability "report-status-v2" for git-push
The new introduced "proc-receive" hook may handle a command for a
pseudo-reference with a zero-old as its old-oid, while the hook may
create or update a reference with different name, different new-oid,
and different old-oid (the reference may exist already with a non-zero
old-oid).  Current "report-status" protocol cannot report the status for
such reference rewrite.

Add new capability "report-status-v2" and new report protocol which is
not backward compatible for report of git-push.

If a user pushes to a pseudo-reference "refs/for/master/topic", and
"receive-pack" creates two new references "refs/changes/23/123/1" and
"refs/changes/24/124/1", for client without the knowledge of
"report-status-v2", "receive-pack" will only send "ok/ng" directives in
the report, such as:

    ok ref/for/master/topic

But for client which has the knowledge of "report-status-v2",
"receive-pack" will use "option" directives to report more attributes
for the reference given by the above "ok/ng" directive.

    ok refs/for/master/topic
    option refname refs/changes/23/123/1
    option new-oid <new-oid>
    ok refs/for/master/topic
    option refname refs/changes/24/124/1
    option new-oid <new-oid>

The client will report two new created references to the end user.

15d3af5e22 receive-pack: add new proc-receive hook
Git calls an internal `execute_commands` function to handle commands
sent from client to `git-receive-pack`.  Regardless of what references
the user pushes, git creates or updates the corresponding references if
the user has write-permission.  A contributor who has no
write-permission, cannot push to the repository directly.  So, the
contributor has to write commits to an alternate location, and sends
pull request by emails or by other ways.  We call this workflow as a
distributed workflow.

It would be more convenient to work in a centralized workflow like what
Gerrit provided for some cases.  For example, a read-only user who
cannot push to a branch directly can run the following `git push`
command to push commits to a pseudo reference (has a prefix "refs/for/",
not "refs/heads/") to create a code review.

    git push origin \
        HEAD:refs/for/<branch-name>/<session>

The `<branch-name>` in the above example can be as simple as "master",
or a more complicated branch name like "foo/bar".  The `<session>` in
the above example command can be the local branch name of the client
side, such as "my/topic".

We cannot implement a centralized workflow elegantly by using
"pre-receive" + "post-receive", because Git will call the internal
function "execute_commands" to create references (even the special
pseudo reference) between these two hooks.  Even though we can delete
the temporarily created pseudo reference via the "post-receive" hook,
having a temporary reference is not safe for concurrent pushes.

So, add a filter and a new handler to support this kind of workflow.
The filter will check the prefix of the reference name, and if the
command has a special reference name, the filter will turn a specific
field (`run_proc_receive`) on for the command.  Commands with this filed
turned on will be executed by a new handler (a hook named
"proc-receive") instead of the internal `execute_commands` function.
We can use this "proc-receive" command to create pull requests or send
emails for code review.

Suggested by Junio, this "proc-receive" hook reads the commands,
push-options (optional), and send result using a protocol in pkt-line
format.  In the following example, the letter "S" stands for
"receive-pack" and letter "H" stands for the hook.

    # Version and features negotiation.
    S: PKT-LINE(version=1\0push-options atomic...)
    S: flush-pkt
    H: PKT-LINE(version=1\0push-options...)
    H: flush-pkt

    # Send commands from server to the hook.
    S: PKT-LINE(<old-oid> <new-oid> <ref>)
    S: ... ...
    S: flush-pkt
    # Send push-options only if the 'push-options' feature is enabled.
    S: PKT-LINE(push-option)
    S: ... ...
    S: flush-pkt

    # Receive result from the hook.
    # OK, run this command successfully.
    H: PKT-LINE(ok <ref>)
    # NO, I reject it.
    H: PKT-LINE(ng <ref> <reason>)
    # Fall through, let 'receive-pack' to execute it.
    H: PKT-LINE(ok <ref>)
    H: PKT-LINE(option fall-through)
    # OK, but has an alternate reference.  The alternate reference name
    # and other status can be given in options
    H: PKT-LINE(ok <ref>)
    H: PKT-LINE(option refname <refname>)
    H: PKT-LINE(option old-oid <old-oid>)
    H: PKT-LINE(option new-oid <new-oid>)
    H: PKT-LINE(option forced-update)
    H: ... ...
    H: flush-pkt

After receiving a command, the hook will execute the command, and may
create/update different reference.  For example, a command for a pseudo
reference "refs/for/master/topic" may create/update different reference
such as "refs/pull/123/head".  The alternate reference name and other
status are given in option lines.

The list of commands returned from "proc-receive" will replace the
relevant commands that are sent from user to "receive-pack", and
"receive-pack" will continue to run the "execute_commands" function and
other routines.  Finally, the result of the execution of these commands
will be reported to end user.

The reporting function from "receive-pack" to "send-pack" will be
extended in latter commit just like what the "proc-receive" hook reports
to "receive-pack".

873cd28a8b argv-array: rename to strvec
The name "argv-array" isn't very good, because it describes what the
data type can be used for (program argument arrays), not what it
actually is (a dynamically-growing string array that maintains a
NULL-terminator invariant). This leads to people being hesitant to use
it for other cases where it would actually be a good fit. The existing
name is also clunky to use. It's overly long, and the name often leads
to saying things like "argv.argv" (i.e., the field names overlap with
variable names, since they're describing the use, not the type). Let's
give it a more neutral name.

I settled on "strvec" because "vector" is the name for a dynamic array
type in many programming languages. "strarray" would work, too, but it's
longer and a bit more awkward to say (and don't we all say these things
in our mind as we type them?).

A more extreme direction would be a generic data structure which stores
a NULL-terminated of _any_ type. That would be easy to do with void
pointers, but we'd lose some type safety for the existing cases. Plus it
raises questions about memory allocation and ownership. So I limited
myself here to changing names only, and not semantics. If we do find a
use for that more generic data type, we could perhaps implement it at a
lower level and then provide type-safe wrappers around it for strings.
But that can come later.

This patch does the minimum to convert the struct and function names in
the header and implementation, leaving a few things for follow-on
patches:

  - files retain their original names for now

  - struct field names are retained for now

  - there's a preprocessor compat layer that lets most users remain the
    same for now. The exception is headers which made a manual forward
    declaration of the struct. I've converted them (and their dependent
    function declarations) here.

b0df0c16ea stateless-connect: send response end packet
Currently, remote-curl acts as a proxy and blindly forwards packets
between an HTTP server and fetch-pack. In the case of a stateless RPC
connection where the connection is terminated before the transaction is
complete, remote-curl will blindly forward the packets before waiting on
more input from fetch-pack. Meanwhile, fetch-pack will read the
transaction and continue reading, expecting more input to continue the
transaction. This results in a deadlock between the two processes.

This can be seen in the following command which does not terminate:

	$ git -c protocol.version=2 clone https://github.com/git/git.git --shallow-since=20151012
	Cloning into 'git'...

whereas the v1 version does terminate as expected:

	$ git -c protocol.version=1 clone https://github.com/git/git.git --shallow-since=20151012
	Cloning into 'git'...
	fatal: the remote end hung up unexpectedly

Instead of blindly forwarding packets, make remote-curl insert a
response end packet after proxying the responses from the remote server
when using stateless_connect(). On the RPC client side, ensure that each
response ends as described.

A separate control packet is chosen because we need to be able to
differentiate between what the remote server sends and remote-curl's
control packets. By ensuring in the remote-curl code that a server
cannot send response end packets, we prevent a malicious server from
being able to perform a denial of service attack in which they spoof a
response end packet and cause the described deadlock to happen.

af8ccd8ade remote: drop "explicit" parameter from remote_ref_for_branch()
Commit 9700fae5ee (for-each-ref: let upstream/push report the remote
ref name, 2017-11-07) added a remote_ref_for_branch() helper, which
is modeled after remote_for_branch(). This includes providing an
"explicit" out-parameter that tells the caller whether the remote
was configured by the user, or whether we picked a default name like
"origin".

But unlike remote names, there is no default name when the user
didn't configure one.  The only way the "explicit" parameter is used
by the caller is to use the value returned from the helper when it
is set, and use an empty string otherwise, ignoring the returned
value from the helper.

Let's drop the "explicit" out-parameter, and return NULL when the
returned value from the helper should be ignored, to simplify the
function interface.

N.B. The doc for both push and fetch members of the remote struct aren't

of rspecs to struct refspec 2 years ago.

Also documentation/technical/api-remote.txt is removed because the

There has been a push to remove extern from function declarations.
Remove some instances of "extern" for function declarations which are

This was the Coccinelle patch used:

	type T;
	identifier f;

	- extern
	  T f(...);

and it was run with:

	$ git ls-files \*.{c,h} |

		xargs spatch --sp-file contrib/coccinelle/noextern.cocci --in-place

Files under `compat/` are intentionally excluded as some are directly

c646d0934e ref-filter: use correct branch for %(push:track)
In ref-filter.c, when processing the atom %(push:track), the
ahead/behind values are computed using `stat_tracking_info` which refers
to the upstream branch.

Fix that by introducing a new flag `for_push` in `stat_tracking_info`
in remote.c, which does the same thing but for the push branch.
Update the few callers of `stat_tracking_info` to handle this flag. This
ensure that whenever we use this function in the future, we are careful
to specify is this should apply to the upstream or the push branch.

This bug was not detected in t/t6300-for-each-ref.sh because in the test
for push:track, both the upstream and the push branches were behind by 1
from the local branch. Change the test so that the upstream branch is
behind by 1 while the push branch is ahead by 1. This allows us to test
that %(push:track) refers to the correct branch.

This changes the expected value of some following tests (by introducing
new references), so update them too.

ef3ca95475 Add missing includes and forward declarations
I looped over the toplevel header files, creating a temporary two-line C
program for each consisting of
  #include "git-compat-util.h"
  #include $HEADER
This patch is the result of manually fixing errors in compiling those
tiny programs.

1d614d41e5 commit-reach: move ref_newer from remote.c
There are several commit walks in the codebase. Group them together into
a new commit-reach.c file and corresponding header. After we group these
walks into one place, we can reduce duplicate logic by calling
equivalent methods.

The ref_newer() method is used by 'git push -f' to check if a force-push
is necessary. By making the method public, we make it possible to test
the method directly without setting up an envieronment where a 'git
push' call makes sense.

733020517a fetch-pack: implement ref-in-want
Implement ref-in-want on the client side so that when a server supports
the "ref-in-want" feature, a client will send "want-ref" lines for each
reference the client wants to fetch.  This feature allows clients to
tolerate inconsistencies that exist when a remote repository's refs
change during the course of negotiation.

This allows a client to request to request a particular ref without
specifying the OID of the ref.  This means that instead of hitting an
error when a ref no longer points at the OID it did at the beginning of
negotiation, negotiation can continue and the value of that ref will be
sent at the termination of negotiation, just before a packfile is sent.

More information on the ref-in-want feature can be found in
Documentation/technical/protocol-v2.txt.

97716d217c fetch: add a --prune-tags option and fetch.pruneTags config
Add a --prune-tags option to git-fetch, along with fetch.pruneTags
config option and a -P shorthand (-p is --prune). This allows for
doing any of:

    git fetch -p -P
    git fetch --prune --prune-tags
    git fetch -p -P origin
    git fetch --prune --prune-tags origin

Or simply:

    git config fetch.prune true &&
    git config fetch.pruneTags true &&
    git fetch

Instead of the much more verbose:

    git fetch --prune origin 'refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*' '+refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*'

Before this feature it was painful to support the use-case of pulling
from a repo which is having both its branches *and* tags deleted
regularly, and have our local references to reflect upstream.

At work we create deployment tags in the repo for each rollout, and
there's *lots* of those, so they're archived within weeks for
performance reasons.

Without this change it's hard to centrally configure such repos in
/etc/gitconfig (on servers that are only used for working with
them). You need to set fetch.prune=true globally, and then for each
repo:

    git -C {} config --replace-all remote.origin.fetch "refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*" "^\+*refs/tags/\*:refs/tags/\*$"

Now I can simply set fetch.pruneTags=true in /etc/gitconfig as well,
and users running "git pull" will automatically get the pruning
semantics I want.

Even though "git remote" has corresponding "prune" and "update
--prune" subcommands I'm intentionally not adding a corresponding
prune-tags or "update --prune --prune-tags" mode to that command.

It's advertised (as noted in my recent "git remote doc: correct
dangerous lies about what prune does") as only modifying remote
tracking references, whereas any --prune-tags option is always going
to modify what from the user's perspective is a local copy of the tag,
since there's no such thing as a remote tracking tag.

Ideally add_prune_tags_to_fetch_refspec() would be something that
would use ALLOC_GROW() to grow the 'fetch` member of the 'remote'
struct. Instead I'm realloc-ing remote->fetch and adding the
tag_refspec to the end.

The reason is that parse_{fetch,push}_refspec which allocate the
refspec (ultimately remote->fetch) struct are called many places that
don't have access to a 'remote' struct. It would be hard to change all
their callsites to be amenable to carry around the bookkeeping
variables required for dynamic allocation.

All the other callers of the API first incrementally construct the
string version of the refspec in remote->fetch_refspec via
add_fetch_refspec(), before finally calling parse_fetch_refspec() via
some variation of remote_get().

It's less of a pain to deal with the one special case that needs to
modify already constructed refspecs than to chase down and change all
the other callsites. The API I'm adding is intentionally not
generalized because if we add more of these we'd probably want to
re-visit how this is done.

See my "Re: [BUG] git remote prune removes local tags, depending on
fetch config" (87po6ahx87.fsf@evledraar.gmail.com;
https://public-inbox.org/git/87po6ahx87.fsf@evledraar.gmail.com/) for
