Recent "git clone" left a temporary directory behind when the
transport layer returned an failure.
* jk/clone-clean-upon-transport-error:
clone: clean up directory after transport_fetch_refs() failure
git-clone started respecting errors from the transport subsystem in
aab179d937 (builtin/clone.c: don't ignore transport_fetch_refs() errors,
2020-12-03). However, that commit didn't handle the cleanup of the
filesystem quite right.
The cleanup of the directory that cmd_clone() creates is done by an
atexit() handler, which we control with a flag. It starts as
JUNK_LEAVE_NONE ("clean up everything"), then progresses to
JUNK_LEAVE_REPO when we know we have a valid repo but not working tree,
and then finally JUNK_LEAVE_ALL when we have a successful checkout.
Most errors cause us to die(), which then triggers the handler to do the
right thing based on how far into cmd_clone() we got. But the checks
added by aab179d937 instead set the "err" variable and then jump to a
new "cleanup" label, which then returns our non-zero status. However,
the code after the cleanup label includes setting the flag to
JUNK_LEAVE_ALL, and so we accidentally leave the repository and working
tree in place.
One obvious option to fix this is to reorder the end of the function to
set the flag first, before cleanup code, and put the label between them.
But we can observe another small bug: the error return from
transport_fetch_refs() is generally "-1", and we propagate that to the
return value of cmd_clone(), which ultimately becomes the exit code of
the process. And we try to avoid transmitting negative values via exit
codes (only the low 8 bits are passed along as an unsigned value, though
in practice for "-1" this at least retains the property that it's
non-zero).
Instead, let's just die(). That makes us consistent with rest of the
code in the function. It does add a new "fatal:" line to the output, but
I'd argue that's a good thing:
- in the rare case that the transport code didn't say anything, now
the user gets _some_ error message
- even if the transport code said something like "error: ssh died of
signal 9", it's nice to also say "fatal" to indicate that we
considered that to be a show-stopper.
Triggering this in the test suite turns out to be surprisingly
difficult. Almost every error we'd encounter, including ones deep inside
the transport code, cause us to just die() right there! However, one way
is to put a fake wrapper around git-upload-pack that sends the complete
packfile but exits with a failure code.

Up until recently, object IDs did not have an algorithm member, only a
hash. Consequently, it was possible to share one null (all-zeros)
object ID among all hash algorithms. Now that we're going to be
handling objects from multiple hash algorithms, it's important to make
sure that all object IDs have a correct algorithm field.
Introduce a per-algorithm null OID, and add it to struct hash_algo.
Introduce a wrapper function as well, and use it everywhere we used to
use the null_oid constant.

"git clone --reject-shallow" option fails the clone as soon as we
notice that we are cloning from a shallow repository.
* ll/clone-reject-shallow:
builtin/clone.c: add --reject-shallow option
In some scenarios, users may want more history than the repository
offered for cloning, which happens to be a shallow repository, can
give them. But because users don't know it is a shallow repository
until they download it to local, we may want to refuse to clone
this kind of repository, without creating any unnecessary files.
The '--depth=x' option cannot be used as a solution; the source may
be deep enough to give us 'x' commits when cloned, but the user may
later need to deepen the history to arbitrary depth.
Teach '--reject-shallow' option to "git clone" to abort as soon as
we find out that we are cloning from a shallow repository.

Most of these pointers can safely be freed when cmd_clone() completes,
therefore we make sure to free them. The one exception is that we
have to UNLEAK(repo) because it can point either to argv[0], or a
malloc'd string returned by absolute_pathdup().
We also have to free(path) in the middle of cmd_clone(): later during
cmd_clone(), path is unconditionally overwritten with a different path,
triggering a leak. Freeing the first path immediately after use (but
only in the case where it contains data) seems like the cleanest
solution, as opposed to freeing it unconditionally before path is reused
for another path. This leak appears to have been introduced in:
f38aa83f9a (use local cloning if insteadOf makes a local URL, 2014-07-17)
These leaks were found when running t0001 with LSAN, see also an excerpt
of the LSAN output below (the full list is omitted because it's far too
long, and mostly consists of indirect leakage of members of the refs we
are freeing).

If 'git clone' couldn't execute 'transport_fetch_refs()' (e.g., because
of an error on the remote's side in 'git upload-pack'), then it will
silently ignore it.
Even though this has been the case at least since clone was ported to C
(way back in 8434c2f1af (Build in clone, 2008-04-27)), 'git fetch'
doesn't ignore these and reports any failures it sees.
That suggests that ignoring the return value in 'git clone' is simply an
oversight that should be corrected. That's exactly what this patch does.
(Noticing and fixing this is no coincidence, we'll want it in the next
patch in order to demonstrate a regression in 'git upload-pack' via a
'git clone'.)
There's no additional logging here, but that matches how 'git fetch'
handles the same case. An assumption there is that whichever part of
transport_fetch_refs() fails will complain loudly, so any additional
logging here is redundant.

Providing a bad origin name to `git clone` currently reports an

that the `--origin` option was malformed. This behavior dates back to
since 8434c2f1 (Build in clone, 2008-04-27). Reintroduce
validation for the provided `--origin` option, but notably _don't_
include a multi-level check (e.g. "foo/bar") that was present in the
original `git-clone.sh`. `git remote` allows multi-level remote names
since at least 46220ca100 (remote.c: Fix overtight refspec validation,

If a user is cloning a SHA-1 repository with GIT_DEFAULT_HASH set to
"sha256", then we can end up with a repository where the repository
format version is 0 but the extensions.objectformat key is set to
"sha256". This is both wrong (the user has a SHA-1 repository) and
nonfunctional (because the extension cannot be used in a v0 repository).
This happens because in a clone, we initially set up the repository, and
then change its algorithm based on what the remote side tells us it's
using. We've initially set up the repository as SHA-256 in this case,
and then later on reset the repository version without clearing the
extension.
We could just always set the extension in this case, but that would mean
that our SHA-1 repositories weren't compatible with older Git versions,
even though there's no reason why they shouldn't be. And we also don't
want to initialize the repository as SHA-1 initially, since that means
if we're cloning an empty repository, we'll have failed to honor the
GIT_DEFAULT_HASH variable and will end up with a SHA-1 repository, not a
SHA-256 repository.
Neither of those are appealing, so let's tell the repository
initialization code if we're doing a reinit like this, and if so, to
clear the extension if we're using SHA-1. This makes sure we produce a
valid and functional repository and doesn't break any of our other use
cases.

barrier to adoption.

The "argc" and "argv" names made sense when the struct was argv_array,
but now they're just confusing. Let's rename them to "nr" (which we use
for counts elsewhere) and "v" (which is rather terse, but reads well
when combined with typical variable names like "args.v").
Note that we have to update all of the callers immediately. Playing
tricks with the preprocessor is hard here, because we wouldn't want to

Because of our preprocessor compat layer, the names are interchangeable

The conversion was done purely mechanically with:
git ls-files '*.c' '*.h' |

given is an empty one so it is OK to keep that directory, while

When cloning a repository without any branches, Git chooses a default
branch name for the as-yet unborn branch.
As part of the implicit initialization of the local repository, Git just

There is a growing number of projects and companies desiring to change
the main branch name of their repositories (see e.g.
https://twitter.com/mislav/status/1270388510684598272 for background on
this).
To change that branch name for new repositories, currently the only way
to do that automatically is by copying all of Git's template directory,
then hard-coding the desired default branch name into the `.git/HEAD`
file, and then configuring `init.templateDir` to point to those copied
template files.
To make this process much less cumbersome, let's introduce a new option:
`--initial-branch=<branch-name>`.

When performing a clone, we don't know what hash algorithm the other end
will support. Currently, we don't support fetching data belonging to a
different algorithm, so we must know what algorithm the remote side is
using in order to properly initialize the repository. We can know that
only after fetching the refs, so if the remote side has any references,
use that information to reinitialize the repository with the correct
hash algorithm information.

"git log" learns "--[no-]mailmap" as a synonym to "--[no-]use-mailmap"

log: give --[no-]use-mailmap a more sensible synonym --[no-]mailmap
clone: reorder --recursive/--recurse-submodules
parse-options: teach "git cmd -h" to show alias as alias
The logic to auto-follow tags by "git clone --single-branch" was
not careful to avoid lazy-fetching unnecessary tags, which has been
corrected.
* jk/use-quick-lookup-in-clone-for-tag-following:
clone: use "quick" lookup while following tags
Simplify the commit ancestry connectedness check in a partial clone
repository in which "promised" objects are assumed to be obtainable
lazily on-demand from promisor remote repositories.
* jt/connectivity-check-optim-in-partial-clone:
connected: always use partial clone optimization
When cloning with --single-branch, we implement git-fetch's usual
tag-following behavior, grabbing any tag objects that point to objects
we have locally.
When we're a partial clone, though, our has_object_file() check will
actually lazy-fetch each tag. That not only defeats the purpose of
--single-branch, but it does it incredibly slowly, potentially kicking
off a new fetch for each tag. This is even worse for a shallow clone,
which implies --single-branch, because even tags which are supersets of
each other will be fetched individually.
We can fix this by passing OBJECT_INFO_SKIP_FETCH_OBJECT to the call,
which is what git-fetch does in this case.
Likewise, let's include OBJECT_INFO_QUICK, as that's what git-fetch
does. The rationale is discussed in 5827a03545 (fetch: use "quick"
has_sha1_file for tag following, 2016-10-13), but here the tradeoff
would apply even more so because clone is very unlikely to be racing
with another process repacking our newly-created repository.
This may provide a very small speedup even in the non-partial case case,
as we'd avoid calling reprepare_packed_git() for each tag (though in
practice, we'd only have a single packfile, so that reprepare should be
quite cheap).

With 50033772d5 ("connected: verify promisor-ness of partial clone",
2020-01-30), the fast path (checking promisor packs) in
check_connected() now passes a subset of the slow path (rev-list) - if
all objects to be checked are found in promisor packs, both the fast
path and the slow path will pass; otherwise, the fast path will
definitely not pass. This means that we can always attempt the fast path
whenever we need to do the slow path.
The fast path is currently guarded by a flag; therefore, remove that
flag. Also, make the fast path fallback to the slow path - if the fast
path fails, the failing OID and all remaining OIDs will be passed to
rev-list.
The main user-visible benefit is the performance of fetch from a partial
clone - specifically, the speedup of the connectivity check done before
the fetch. In particular, a no-op fetch into a partial clone on my
computer was sped up from 7 seconds to 0.01 seconds. This is a
complement to the work in 2df1aa239c ("fetch: forgo full
connectivity check if --filter", 2020-01-30), which is the child of the
aforementioned 50033772d5. In that commit, the connectivity check
*after* the fetch was sped up.
The addition of the fast path might cause performance reductions in
these cases:
- If a partial clone or a fetch into a partial clone fails, Git will
fruitlessly run rev-list (it is expected that everything fetched
would go into promisor packs, so if that didn't happen, it is most
likely that rev-list will fail too).
- Any connectivity checks done by receive-pack, in the (in my opinion,
unlikely) event that a partial clone serves receive-pack.
I think that these cases are rare enough, and the performance reduction
in this case minor enough (additional object DB access), that the
benefit of avoiding a flag outweighs these.

Returning a shared buffer invites very subtle bugs due to reentrancy or
multi-threading, as demonstrated by the previous patch.
There was an unfinished effort to abolish this [1].
Let's finally rid of `real_path()`, using `strbuf_realpath()` instead.
This patch uses a local `strbuf` for most places where `real_path()` was
previously called.
However, two places return the value of `real_path()` to the caller. For
them, a `static` local `strbuf` was added, effectively pushing the
problem one level higher:
read_gitfile_gently()
get_superproject_working_tree()

using the --object-format option to git init. Validate that the user is
not attempting to reinitialize a repository with a different hash
algorithm. Ensure that if we are writing a non-SHA-1 repository that we
set the repository version to 1 and write the objectFormat extension.
Restrict this option to work only when ENABLE_SHA256 is set until the
codebase is in a situation to fully support this.

--filter to check only the existence of objects directly pointed to by
refs. But this is not sufficient: they also need to be promisor objects.
Make this check more robust by instead checking that these objects are
promisor objects, that is, they appear in a promisor pack.

The --sparse option was added to the clone builtin in d89f09c (clone:
add --sparse mode, 2019-11-21) and was tested with a local path clone
in t1091-sparse-checkout-builtin.sh. However, due to a difference in
how local paths are handled versus URLs, this mechanism does not work
with URLs.
Modify the test to use a "file://" URL, which would output this error
before the code change:
Cloning into 'clone'...
fatal: cannot change to 'file://.../repo': No such file or directory
error: failed to initialize sparse-checkout
These errors are due to using a "-C <path>" option to call 'git -C
<path> sparse-checkout init' but the URL is being given instead of
the target directory.
Update that target directory to evaluate this correctly. I have also
manually tested that https:// URLs are handled correctly as well.
