Jeff King d1a13d3fcb send-pack: report signal death of pack-objects
If our pack-objects sub-process dies of a signal, then it
likely didn't have a chance to write anything useful to
stderr. The user may be left scratching their head why the
push failed. Let's detect this situation and write something
to stderr.

Jeff King ba69f92db6 send-pack: read "unpack" status even on pack-objects failure
If the local pack-objects of a push fails, we'll tell the
user about it. But one likely cause is that the remote
index-pack stopped reading for some reason (because it
didn't like our input, or encountered another error). In
that case we'd expect the remote to report more details to
us via the "unpack ..." status line. However, the current
code just hangs up completely, and the user never sees it.

Instead, let's call receive_unpack_status(), which will
complain on stderr with whatever reason the remote told us.
Note that if our pack-objects fails because the connection
was severed or the remote just crashed entirely, then our
packet_read_line() call may fail with "the remote end hung
up unexpectedly". That's OK. It's a more accurate
description than what we get now (which is just "some refs
failed to push").

This should be safe from any deadlocks. At the point we make
this call we'll have closed the writing end of the
connection to the server (either by handing it off to
a pack-objects which exited, explicitly in the stateless_rpc
case, or by doing a half-duplex shutdown for a socket). So
there should be no chance that the other side is waiting
for the rest of our pack-objects input.

Jeff King 40d05d04dd send-pack: improve unpack-status error messages
When the remote tells us that the "unpack" step failed, we
show an error message. However, unless you are familiar with
the internals of send-pack and receive-pack, it was not
clear that this represented an error on the remote side.
Let's re-word to make that more obvious.

Likewise, when we got an unexpected packet from the other
end, we complained with a vague message but did not actually
show the packet.  Let's fix that.

And finally, neither message was marked for translation. The
message from the remote probably won't be translated, but
there's no reason we can't do better for the local half.

Jeff King 6cdad1f133 receive-pack: fix deadlock when we cannot create tmpdir
The err_fd descriptor passed to the unpack() function is
intended to be handed off to the child index-pack, and our
async muxer will read until it gets EOF. However, if we
encounter an error before handing off the descriptor, we
must manually close(err_fd). Otherwise we will be waiting
for our muxer to finish, while the muxer is waiting for EOF
on err_fd.

We fixed an identical deadlock already in 49ecfa13f
(receive-pack: close sideband fd on early pack errors,
2013-04-19). But since then, the function grew a new
early-return in 722ff7f87 (receive-pack: quarantine objects
until pre-receive accepts, 2016-10-03), when we fail to
create a temporary directory. This return needs the same
treatment.

Jeff King 3255e512a8 ewah: fix eword_t/uint64_t confusion
The ewah subsystem typedefs eword_t to be uint64_t, but some
code uses a bare uint64_t. This isn't a bug now, but it's a
potential maintenance problem if the definition of eword_t
ever changes. Let's use the correct type.

Note that we can't use COPY_ARRAY() here because the source
and destination point to objects of different sizes. For
that reason we'll also skip the usual "sizeof(*dst)" and use
the real type, which should make it more clear that there's
something tricky going on.

Vegard Nossum 07f546cda5 line-log: use COPY_ARRAY to fix mis-sized memcpy
This memcpy meant to get the sizeof a "struct range", not a
"range_set", as the former is what our array holds. Rather
than swap out the types, let's convert this site to
COPY_ARRAY, which avoids the problem entirely (and confirms
that the src and dst types match).

Note for curiosity's sake that this bug doesn't trigger on
I32LP64 systems, but does on ILP32 systems. The mistaken
"struct range_set" has two ints and a pointer. That's 16
bytes on LP64, or 12 on ILP32. The correct "struct range"
type has two longs, which is also 16 on LP64, but only 8 on
ILP32.

Likewise an IL32P64 system would experience the bug.

Johannes Schindelin 88dedd5e72 Travis: also test on 32-bit Linux
When Git v2.9.1 was released, it had a bug that showed only on Windows
and on 32-bit systems: our assumption that `unsigned long` can hold

Devin J. Pohly a582a82d24 filter-branch: fix --prune-empty on parentless commits
Previously, the git_commit_non_empty_tree function would always pass any
commit with no parents to git-commit-tree, regardless of whether the
tree was nonempty.  The new commit would then be recorded in the
filter-branch revision map, and subsequent commits which leave the tree
untouched would be correctly filtered.

With this change, parentless commits with an empty tree are correctly
pruned, and an empty file is recorded in the revision map, signifying
that it was rewritten to "no commits."  This works naturally with the
parent mapping for subsequent commits.

Allan Xavier aaae0bf787 line-log.c: prevent crash during union of too many ranges
The existing implementation of range_set_union does not correctly
reallocate memory, leading to a heap overflow when it attempts to union
more than 24 separate line ranges.

For struct range_set *out to grow correctly it must have out->nr set to
the current size of the buffer when it is passed to range_set_grow.
However, the existing implementation of range_set_union only updates
out->nr at the end of the function, meaning that it is always zero
before this. This results in range_set_grow never growing the buffer, as
well as some of the union logic itself being incorrect as !out->nr is
always true.

The reason why 24 is the limit is that the first allocation of size 1
ends up allocating a buffer of size 24 (due to the call to alloc_nr in
ALLOC_GROW). This goes some way to explain why this hasn't been
caught before.

Fix the problem by correctly updating out->nr after reallocating the
range_set. As this results in out->nr containing the same value as the
variable o, replace o with out->nr as well.

Finally, add a new test to help prevent the problem reoccurring in the
future. Thanks to Vegard Nossum for writing the test.

Jeff King 28e1fb5466 t/perf: add fallback for pre-bin-wrappers versions of git
It's tempting to say:

  ./run v1.0.0 HEAD

to see how we've sped up Git over the years. Unfortunately,
this doesn't quite work because versions of Git prior to
v1.7.0 lack bin-wrappers, so our "run" script doesn't
correctly put them in the PATH.

Worse, it means we silently find whatever other "git" is in
the PATH, and produce test results that have no bearing on
what we asked for.

Let's fallback to the main git directory when bin-wrappers
isn't present. Many modern perf scripts won't run with such
an antique version of Git, of course, but at least those
failures are detected and reported (and you're free to write
a limited perf script that works across many versions).

Jeff King 83d4a409d3 t/perf: use $MODERN_GIT for all repo-copying steps
Since 1a0962dee (t/perf: fix regression in testing older
versions of git, 2016-06-22), we point "$MODERN_GIT" to a
copy of git that matches the t/perf script itself, and which
can be used for tasks outside of the actual timings. This is
needed because the setup done by perf scripts keeps moving
forward in time, and may use features that the older
versions of git we are testing do not have.

That commit used $MODERN_GIT to fix a case where we relied
on the relatively recent --git-path option. But if you go
back further still, there are more problems.

Since 7501b5921 (perf: make the tests work in worktrees,
2016-05-13), we use "git -C", but versions of git older than
44e1e4d67 (git: run in a directory given with -C option,
2013-09-09) don't know about "-C". So testing an old version
of git with a new version of t/perf will fail the setup
step.

We can fix this by using $MODERN_GIT during the setup;
there's no need to use the antique version, since it doesn't
affect the timings. Likewise, we'll adjust the "init"
invocation; antique versions of git called this "init-db".

Jeff King fd4692ff70 checkout: restrict @-expansions when finding branch
When we parse "git checkout $NAME", we try to interpret
$NAME as a local branch-name. If it is, then we point HEAD
to that branch. Otherwise, we detach the HEAD at whatever
commit $NAME points to.

We do the interpretation by calling strbuf_branchname(), and
then blindly sticking "refs/heads/" on the front. This leads
to nonsense results when expansions like "@{upstream}" or
"@" point to something besides a local branch. We end up
with a local branch name like "refs/heads/origin/master" or
"refs/heads/HEAD".

Normally this has no user-visible effect because those
branches don't exist, and so we fallback to feeding the
result to get_sha1(), which resolves them correctly.

But as the new test in t3204 shows, there are corner cases
where the effect is observable, and we check out the wrong
local branch rather than detaching to the correct one.

Jeff King 7d5c960bf6 strbuf_check_ref_format(): expand only local branches
This function asks strbuf_branchname() to expand any @-marks
in the branchname, and then we blindly stick refs/heads/ in
front of the result. This is obviously nonsense if the
expansion is "HEAD" or a ref in refs/remotes/.

The most obvious end-user effect is that creating or
renaming a branch with an expansion may have confusing
results (e.g., creating refs/heads/origin/master from
"@{upstream}" when the operation should be disallowed).

We can fix this by telling strbuf_branchname() that we are
only interested in local expansions. Any unexpanded bits are
then fed to check_ref_format(), which either disallows them
(in the case of "@{upstream}") or lets them through
("refs/heads/@" is technically valid, if a bit silly).

Jeff King 0e9f62dab9 interpret_branch_name: allow callers to restrict expansions
The interpret_branch_name() function converts names like
@{-1} and @{upstream} into branch names. The expanded ref
names are not fully qualified, and may be outside of the
refs/heads/ namespace (e.g., "@" expands to "HEAD", and
"@{upstream}" is likely to be in "refs/remotes/").

This is OK for callers like dwim_ref() which are primarily
interested in resolving the resulting name, no matter where
it is. But callers like "git branch" treat the result as a
branch name in refs/heads/.  When we expand to a ref outside
that namespace, the results are very confusing (e.g., "git
branch @" tries to create refs/heads/HEAD, which is
nonsense).

Callers can't know from the returned string how the
expansion happened (e.g., did the user really ask for a
branch named "HEAD", or did we do a bogus expansion?). One
fix would be to return some out-parameters describing the
types of expansion that occurred. This has the benefit that
the caller can generate precise error messages ("I
understood @{upstream} to mean origin/master, but that is a
remote tracking branch, so you cannot create it as a local
name").

However, out-parameters make the function interface somewhat
cumbersome. Instead, let's do the opposite: let the caller
tell us which elements to expand. That's easier to pass in,
and none of the callers give more precise error messages
than "@{upstream} isn't a valid branch name" anyway (which
should be sufficient).

The strbuf_branchname() function needs a similar parameter,
as most of the callers access interpret_branch_name()
through it.

We can break the callers down into two groups:

  1. Callers that are happy with any kind of ref in the
     result. We pass "0" here, so they continue to work
     without restrictions. This includes merge_name(),
     the reflog handling in add_pending_object_with_path(),
     and substitute_branch_name(). This last is what powers
     dwim_ref().

  2. Callers that have funny corner cases (mostly in
     git-branch and git-checkout). These need to make use of
     the new parameter, but I've left them as "0" in this
     patch, and will address them individually in follow-on
     patches.

Jeff King 13228c30a6 interpret_branch_name(): handle auto-namelen for @{-1}
The interpret_branch_name() function takes a ptr/len pair
for the name, but you can pass "0" for "namelen", which will
cause it to check the length with strlen().

However, before we do that auto-namelen magic, we call
interpret_nth_prior_checkout(), which gets fed the bogus
"0". This was broken by 8cd4249c4 (interpret_branch_name:
always respect "namelen" parameter, 2014-01-15).  Though to
be fair to that commit, it was broken in the _opposite_
direction before, where we would always treat "name" as a
string even if a length was passed.

You can see the bug with "git log -g @{-1}". That code path
always passes "0", and without this patch it cannot figure
out which branch's reflog to show.

We can fix it by a small reordering of the code.

Junio C Hamano 12426e114b diff: do not short-cut CHECK_SIZE_ONLY check in diff_populate_filespec()
Callers of diff_populate_filespec() can choose to ask only for the
size of the blob without grabbing the blob data, and the function,
after running lstat() when the filespec points at a working tree
file, returns by copying the value in size field of the stat
structure into the size field of the filespec when this is the case.

However, this short-cut cannot be taken if the contents from the
path needs to go through convert_to_git(), whose resulting real blob
data may be different from what is in the working tree file.

As "git diff --quiet" compares the .size fields of filespec
structures to skip content comparison, this bug manifests as a
false "there are differences" for a file that needs eol conversion,

Jeff King c852bd54bd add--interactive: fix missing file prompt for patch mode with "-i"
When invoked as "git add -i", each menu interactive menu
option prompts the user to select a list of files. This
includes the "patch" option, which gets the list before
starting the hunk-selection loop.

As "git add -p", it behaves differently, and jumps straight
to the hunk selection loop.

Since 0539d5e6d (i18n: add--interactive: mark patch prompt
for translation, 2016-12-14), the "add -i" case mistakenly
jumps to straight to the hunk-selection loop. Prior to that
commit the distinction between the two cases was managed by
the $patch_mode variable. That commit used $patch_mode for
something else, and moved the old meaning to the "$cmd"
variable.  But it forgot to update the $patch_mode check
inside patch_update_cmd() which controls the file-list
behavior.

The simplest fix would be to change that line to check $cmd.
But while we're here, let's use a less obscure name for this
flag: $patch_mode_only, a boolean which tells whether we are
in full-interactive mode or only in patch-mode.

Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason c6507484a2 gitweb tests: skip tests when we don't have Time::HiRes
Change the gitweb tests to skip when we can't load the Time::HiRes
module.

Gitweb needs this module to work. It has been in perl core since v5.8,
which is the oldest version we support. However CentOS (and perhaps
some other distributions) carve it into its own non-core-perl package
that's not installed along with /usr/bin/perl by default. Without this
we'll hard fail the gitweb tests when trying to load the module.

Jonathan Tan 8e27391a5f http: attempt updating base URL only if no error
http.c supports HTTP redirects of the form

  http://foo/info/refs?service=git-upload-pack
  -> http://anything
  -> http://bar/info/refs?service=git-upload-pack

(that is to say, as long as the Git part of the path and the query
string is preserved in the final redirect destination, the intermediate
steps can have any URL). However, if one of the intermediate steps
results in an HTTP exception, a confusing "unable to update url base
from redirection" message is printed instead of a Curl error message
with the HTTP exception code.

This was introduced by 2 commits. Commit c93c92f ("http: update base
URLs when we see redirects", 2013-09-28) introduced a best-effort
optimization that required checking if only the "base" part of the URL
differed between the initial request and the final redirect destination,
but it performed the check before any HTTP status checking was done. If
something went wrong, the normal code path was still followed, so this
did not cause any confusing error messages until commit 6628eb4 ("http:
always update the base URL for redirects", 2016-12-06), which taught
http to die if the non-"base" part of the URL differed.

Therefore, teach http to check the HTTP status before attempting to
check if only the "base" part of the URL differed. This commit teaches
http_request_reauth to return early without updating options->base_url
upon an error; the only invoker of this function that passes a non-NULL
"options" is remote-curl.c (through "http_get_strbuf"), which only uses
options->base_url for an informational message in the situations that
this commit cares about (that is, when the return value is not HTTP_OK).

The included test checks that the redirect scheme at the beginning of
this commit message works, and that returning a 502 in the middle of the
redirect scheme produces the correct result. Note that this is different
from the test in commit 6628eb4 ("http: always update the base URL for
redirects", 2016-12-06) in that this commit tests that a Git-shaped URL
(http://.../info/refs?service=git-upload-pack) works, whereas commit
6628eb4 tests that a non-Git-shaped URL
(http://.../info/refs/foo?service=git-upload-pack) does not work (even
though Git is processing that URL) and is an error that is fatal, not
silently swallowed.

Patrick Steinhardt b803ae4427 docs/diffcore: unquote "Complete Rewrites" in headers
The gitdiffcore documentation quotes the term "Complete Rewrites" in
headers for no real gain. This would make sense if the term could be
easily confused if not properly grouped together. But actually, the term
is quite obvious and thus does not really need any quoting, especially
regarding that it is not used anywhere else.

But more importanly, this brings up a bug when rendering man pages: when
trying to render quotes inside of a section header, we end up with
quotes which have been misaligned to the end of line. E.g.

    diffcore-break: For Splitting Up Complete Rewrites
    --------------------------------------------------

renders as

    DIFFCORE-BREAK: FOR SPLITTING UP  COMPLETE REWRITES""

, which is obviously wrong. While this is fixable for the man pages by
using double-quotes (e.g. ""COMPLETE REWRITES""), this again breaks it
for our generated HTML pages.

So fix the issue by simply dropping quotes inside of section headers,
which is currently only done for the term "Complete Rewrites".

Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason a78d9258dc cvs tests: skip tests that call "cvs commit" when running as root
Change the tests that fail to when we run the test suite as root, due
to calling "cvs commit".

The GNU cvs package has an optional compile-time CVS_BADROOT
flag. When compiled with this flag "cvs commit" will refuse to commit
anything as root. On my Debian box this isn't compiled in[1] in, but
on CentOS it is.

I've run all the t/t*cvs*.sh tests, and these are the only two that
fail. For some reason e.g. t9402-git-cvsserver-refs.sh still works as
root despite doing "cvs commit", I haven't dug into why.

This commit is technically being overzealous, we could do better by
making a mock cvs commit as root and run the tests if that works, but
I don't see any compelling reason to bend over backwards to run these
tests in all cases, just skipping them as root seems good enough.

1. Per: strings /usr/bin/cvs|grep 'is not allowed to commit'
   Using cvs 1.11.23 on CentOS, 1.12.13-MirDebian-18 on Debian.

In one test, we use "git checkout --orphan HEAD" to create
an unborn branch. Confusingly, the resulting branch is named
"refs/heads/HEAD". The original probably meant something
like:

  git checkout --orphan orphaned-branch HEAD

Let's just use "orphaned-branch" here to make this less
confusing. Putting HEAD in the second argument is already
implied.

Both standard_header_field() and excluded_header_field() check if
there's a space after the buffer that's handed to them.  We already
check in the caller if that space is present.  Don't bother calling
the functions if it's missing, as they are guaranteed to return 0 in
that case, and remove the now redundant checks from them.

Add a function for appending the canonized absolute pathname of a given
path to a strbuf.  It keeps the existing contents intact, as expected of
a function of the strbuf_add() family, while avoiding copying the result
if the given strbuf is empty.  It's more consistent with the rest of the
strbuf API than strbuf_realpath(), which it's wrapping.

Also add a semantic patch demonstrating its intended usage and apply it
to the current tree.  Using strbuf_add_real_path() instead of calling
strbuf_addstr() and real_path() avoids an extra copy to a static buffer.
