brian m. carlson 9c44ea4403 builtin/receive-pack: convert portions to struct object_id
Convert some hardcoded constants into uses of parse_oid_hex.
Additionally, convert all uses of struct command, and miscellaneous
other functions necessary for that.  This work is necessary to be able
to convert sha1_array_append later on.

To avoid needing to specify a constant, reject shallow lines with the
wrong length instead of simply ignoring them.

Note that in queue_command we are guaranteed to have a NUL-terminated
buffer or at least one byte of overflow that we can safely read, so the
linelen check can be elided.  We would die in such a case, but not read
invalid memory.

brian m. carlson f2214dede9 builtin/receive-pack: fix incorrect pointer arithmetic
If we had already processed the last newline in a push certificate, we
would end up subtracting NULL from the end-of-certificate pointer when
computing the length of the line.  This would have resulted in an
absurdly large length, and possibly a buffer overflow.  Instead,
subtract the beginning-of-certificate pointer from the
end-of-certificate pointer, which is what's expected.

Note that this situation should never occur, since not only do we
require the certificate to be newline terminated, but the signature will
only be read from the beginning of a line.  Nevertheless, it seems
prudent to correct it.

Jeff King 2c5e2865cc pack.h: define largest possible encoded object size
Several callers use fixed buffers for storing the pack
object header, and they've picked 10 as a magic number. This
is reasonable, since it handles objects up to 2^67. But
let's give them a constant so it's clear that the number
isn't pulled out of thin air.

Jeff King 7202a6fa87 encode_in_pack_object_header: respect output buffer length
The encode_in_pack_object_header() writes a variable-length
header to an output buffer, but it doesn't actually know
long the buffer is. At first glance, this looks like it
might be possible to overflow.

In practice, this is probably impossible. The smallest
buffer we use is 10 bytes, which would hold the header for
an object up to 2^67 bytes. Obviously we're not likely to
see such an object, but we might worry that an object could
lie about its size (causing us to overflow before we realize
it does not actually have that many bytes). But the argument
is passed as a uintmax_t. Even on systems that have __int128
available, uintmax_t is typically restricted to 64-bit by
the ABI.

So it's unlikely that a system exists where this could be
exploited. Still, it's easy enough to use a normal out/len
pair and make sure we don't write too far. That protects the
hypothetical 128-bit system, makes it harder for callers to
accidentally specify a too-small buffer, and makes the
resulting code easier to audit.

Note that the one caller in fast-import tried to catch such
a case, but did so _after_ the call (at which point we'd
have already overflowed!). This check can now go away.

Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason ac3f5a3468 ref-filter: add --no-contains option to tag/branch/for-each-ref
Change the tag, branch & for-each-ref commands to have a --no-contains
option in addition to their longstanding --contains options.

This allows for finding the last-good rollout tag given a known-bad
<commit>. Given a hypothetically bad commit cf5c7253e0, the git
version to revert to can be found with this hacky two-liner:

    (git tag -l 'v[0-9]*'; git tag -l --contains cf5c7253e0 'v[0-9]*') |
        sort | uniq -c | grep -E '^ *1 ' | awk '{print $2}' | tail -n 10

With this new --no-contains option the same can be achieved with:

    git tag -l --no-contains cf5c7253e0 'v[0-9]*' | sort | tail -n 10

As the filtering machinery is shared between the tag, branch &
for-each-ref commands, implement this for those commands too. A
practical use for this with "branch" is e.g. finding branches which
were branched off between v2.8.0 and v2.10.0:

    git branch --contains v2.8.0 --no-contains v2.10.0

The "describe" command also has a --contains option, but its semantics
are unrelated to what tag/branch/for-each-ref use --contains for. A
--no-contains option for "describe" wouldn't make any sense, other
than being exactly equivalent to not supplying --contains at all,
which would be confusing at best.

Add a --without option to "tag" as an alias for --no-contains, for
consistency with --with and --contains.  The --with option is
undocumented, and possibly the only user of it is
Junio (<xmqqefy71iej.fsf@gitster.mtv.corp.google.com>). But it's
trivial to support, so let's do that.

The additions to the the test suite are inverse copies of the
corresponding --contains tests. With this change --no-contains for
tag, branch & for-each-ref is just as well tested as the existing
--contains option.

In addition to those tests, add a test for "tag" which asserts that
--no-contains won't find tree/blob tags, which is slightly
unintuitive, but consistent with how --contains works & is documented.

Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason 6a338149f6 tag: implicitly supply --list given another list-like option
Change the "tag" command to implicitly turn on its --list mode when
provided with a list-like option such as --contains, --points-at etc.

This is for consistency with how "branch" works. When "branch" is
given a list-like option, such as --contains, it implicitly provides
--list. Before this change "tag" would error out on those sorts of
invocations. I.e. while both of these worked for "branch":

    git branch --contains v2.8.0 <pattern>
    git branch --list --contains v2.8.0 <pattern>

Only the latter form worked for "tag":

    git tag --contains v2.8.0 '*rc*'
    git tag --list --contains v2.8.0 '*rc*'

Now "tag", like "branch", will implicitly supply --list when a
list-like option is provided, and no other conflicting non-list
options (such as -d) are present on the command-line.

Spelunking through the history via:

    git log --reverse -p -G'only allowed with' -- '*builtin*tag*c'

Reveals that there was no good reason for not allowing this in the
first place. The --contains option added in 32c35cfb1e ("git-tag: Add
--contains option", 2009-01-26) made this an error. All the other
subsequent list-like options that were added copied its pattern of
making this usage an error.

The only tests that break as a result of this change are tests that
were explicitly checking that this "branch-like" usage wasn't
permitted. Change those failing tests to check that this invocation
mode is permitted, add extra tests for the list-like options we
weren't testing, and tests to ensure that e.g. we don't toggle the
list mode in the presence of other conflicting non-list options.

With this change errors messages such as "--contains option is only
allowed with -l" don't make sense anymore, since options like
--contain turn on -l. Instead we error out when list-like options such
as --contain are used in conjunction with conflicting options such as
-d or -v.

Stefan Beller b0176ce6b5 builtin/describe: introduce --broken flag
git-describe tells you the version number you're at, or errors out, e.g.
when you run it outside of a repository, which may happen when downloading
a tar ball instead of using git to obtain the source code.

To keep this property of only erroring out, when not in a repository,
severe (submodule) errors must be downgraded to reporting them gently
instead of having git-describe error out completely.

To achieve that a flag '--broken' is introduced, which is in the same
vein as '--dirty' but uses an actual child process to check for dirtiness.
When that child dies unexpectedly, we'll append '-broken' instead of
'-dirty'.

Jeff King 3b754eedd5 bundle: use prefix_filename with bundle path
We may take the path to a bundle file as an argument, and
need to adjust the filename based on the prefix we
discovered while setting up the git directory. We do so
manually into a fixed-size buffer, but using
prefix_filename() is the normal way.

Besides being more concise, there are two subtle
improvements:

  1. The original inserted a "/" between the two paths, even
     though the "prefix" argument always has the "/"
     appended. That means that:

       cd subdir && git bundle verify ../foo.bundle

     was looking at (and reporting) subdir//../foo.bundle.
     Harmless, but ugly.  Using prefix_filename() gets this
     right.

  2. The original checked for an absolute path by looking
     for a leading '/'. It should have been using
     is_absolute_path(), which also covers more cases on
     Windows (backslashes and dos drive prefixes).

     But it's easier still to just pass the name to
     prefix_filename(), which handles this case
     automatically.

Note that we'll just leak the resulting buffer in the name
of simplicity, since it needs to last through the duration
of the program anyway.

Jeff King e4da43b1f0 prefix_filename: return newly allocated string
The prefix_filename() function returns a pointer to static
storage, which makes it easy to use dangerously. We already
fixed one buggy caller in hash-object recently, and the
calls in apply.c are suspicious (I didn't dig in enough to
confirm that there is a bug, but we call the function once
in apply_all_patches() and then again indirectly from
parse_chunk()).

Let's make it harder to get wrong by allocating the return
value. For simplicity, we'll do this even when the prefix is
empty (and we could just return the original file pointer).
That will cause us to allocate sometimes when we wouldn't
otherwise need to, but this function isn't called in
performance critical code-paths (and it already _might_
allocate on any given call, so a caller that cares about
performance is questionable anyway).

The downside is that the callers need to remember to free()
the result to avoid leaking. Most of them already used
xstrdup() on the result, so we know they are OK. The
remainder have been converted to use free() as appropriate.

I considered retaining a prefix_filename_unsafe() for cases
where we know the static lifetime is OK (and handling the
cleanup is awkward). This is only a handful of cases,
though, and it's not worth the mental energy in worrying
about whether the "unsafe" variant is OK to use in any
situation.

Jeff King 116fb64e43 prefix_filename: drop length parameter
This function takes the prefix as a ptr/len pair, but in
every caller the length is exactly strlen(ptr). Let's
simplify the interface and just take the string. This saves
callers specifying it (and in some cases handling a NULL
prefix).

In a handful of cases we had the length already without
calling strlen, so this is technically slower. But it's not
likely to matter (after all, if the prefix is non-empty
we'll allocate and copy it into a buffer anyway).

Jeff King a1be47e4ca hash-object: fix buffer reuse with --path in a subdirectory
The hash-object command uses prefix_filename() without
duplicating its return value. Since that function returns a
static buffer, the value is overwritten by subsequent calls.

This can cause incorrect results when we use --path along
with hashing a file by its relative path, both of which need
to call prefix_filename(). We overwrite the filename
computed for --path, effectively ignoring it.

We can fix this by calling xstrdup on the return value. Note
that we don't bother freeing the "vpath" instance, as it
remains valid until the program exit.

Brandon Williams 2225e1ea20 grep: fix builds with with no thread support
Commit 0281e487fd ("grep: optionally recurse into submodules")
added functions grep_submodule() and grep_submodule_launch() which
use "struct work_item" which is defined only when thread support
is available.

The original implementation of grep_submodule() used the "struct
work_item" in order to gain access to a strbuf to store its output which
was to be printed at a later point in time.  This differs from how both
grep_file() and grep_sha1() handle their output.  This patch eliminates
the reliance on the "struct work_item" and instead opts to use the
output function stored in the output field of the "struct grep_opt"
object directly, making it behave similarly to both grep_file() and
grep_sha1().

Brandon Williams bb62e0a99f clone: teach --recurse-submodules to optionally take a pathspec
Teach clone --recurse-submodules to optionally take a pathspec argument
which describes which submodules should be recursively initialized and
cloned.  If no pathspec is provided, --recurse-submodules will
recursively initialize and clone all submodules by using a default
pathspec of ".".  In order to construct more complex pathspecs,
--recurse-submodules can be given multiple times.

This also configures the 'submodule.active' configuration option to be
the given pathspec, such that any future invocation of `git submodule
update` will keep up with the pathspec.

Additionally the switch '--recurse' is removed from the Documentation as
well as marked hidden in the options array, to streamline the options
for submodules.  A simple '--recurse' doesn't convey what is being
recursed, e.g. it could mean directories or trees (c.f. ls-tree) In a
lot of other commands we already have '--recurse-submodules' to mean
recursing into submodules, so advertise this spelling here as the
genuine option.

Teach `submodule init` to initialize submodules which have been
configured to be active by setting 'submodule.active' with a pathspec.

Now if no path arguments are given and 'submodule.active' is configured,
`init` will initialize all submodules which have been configured to be
active.  If no path arguments are given and 'submodule.active' is not
configured, then `init` will retain the old behavior of initializing all
submodules.

This allows users to record more complex patterns as it saves retyping

Brandon Williams b2dfeb7c00 ls-files: fix bug when recursing with relative pathspec
When using the --recurse-submodules flag with a relative pathspec which
includes "..", an error is produced inside the child process spawned for a
submodule.  When creating the pathspec struct in the child, the ".." is
interpreted to mean "go up a directory" which causes an error stating that the
path ".." is outside of the repository.

While it is true that ".." is outside the scope of the submodule, it is
confusing to a user who originally invoked the command where ".." was indeed
still inside the scope of the superproject.  Since the child process launched
for the submodule has some context that it is operating underneath a
superproject, this error could be avoided.

This patch fixes the bug by passing the 'prefix' to the child process.  Now
each child process that works on a submodule has two points of reference to the
superproject: (1) the 'super_prefix' which is the path from the root of the
superproject down to root of the submodule and (2) the 'prefix' which is the
path from the root of the superproject down to the directory where the user
invoked the git command.

With these two pieces of information a child process can correctly interpret
the pathspecs provided by the user as well as being able to properly format its
output relative to the directory the user invoked the original command from.

Jeff King f20754802a index-pack: make pointer-alias fallbacks safer
The final() function accepts a NULL value for certain
parameters, and falls back to writing into a reusable "name"
buffer, and then either:

  1. For "keep_name", requiring all uses to do "keep_name ?
     keep_name : name.buf". This is awkward, and it's easy
     to accidentally look at the maybe-NULL keep_name.

  2. For "final_index_name" and "final_pack_name", aliasing
     those pointers to the "name" buffer. This is easier to
     use, but the aliased pointers become invalid after the
     buffer is reused (this isn't a bug now, but it's a
     potential pitfall).

One way to make this safer would be to introduce an extra
pointer to do the aliasing, and have its lifetime match the
validity of the "name" buffer. But it's still easy to
accidentally use the wrong name (i.e., to use
"final_pack_name" instead of the aliased pointer).

Instead, let's use three separate buffers that will remain
valid through the function. That makes it safe to alias the
pointers and use them consistently. The extra allocations
shouldn't matter, as this function is not performance
sensitive.

In several places we write the name of the pack filename
into a fixed-size buffer using snprintf(), but do not check
the return value.  As a result, a very long object directory
could cause us to quietly truncate the pack filename

We can use odb_pack_name() to do this with a strbuf (and

Jeff King eaeefc3276 odb_pack_keep(): stop generating keepfile name
The odb_pack_keep() function generates the name of a .keep
file and opens it. This has two problems:

  1. It requires a fixed-size buffer to create the filename
     and doesn't notice when the result is truncated.

  2. Of the two callers, one sometimes wants to open a
     filename it already has, which makes things awkward (it
     has to do so manually, and skips the leading-directory
     creation).

Instead, let's have odb_pack_keep() just open the file.
Generating the name isn't hard, and a future patch will
switch callers over to odb_pack_name() anyway.

Jeff King ffddfc6328 rev-parse: simplify parsing of ref options
All of these options do the same thing "--foo" iterates over
the "foo" refs, and "--foo=<glob>" does the same with a
glob. We can factor this into its own function to avoid
repeating ourselves.

There are two subtleties to note:

  - the original called for_each_branch_ref(), etc, in the
    non-glob case. Now we will call for_each_ref_in("refs/heads/")
    which is exactly what for_each_branch_ref() did under
    the hood.

  - for --glob, we'll call for_each_glob_ref_in() with a
    NULL "prefix" argument. Which is exactly what
    for_each_glob_ref() was doing already.

So both cases should behave identically, and it seems
reasonable to assume that this will remain the same. The
functions we are calling now are the more-generic ones, and
the ones we are dropping are just convenience wrappers.

as we don't keep our original "arg" pointer. However, the

strbuf_realpath, 2016-12-12), we changed the xstrdup(real_path())
pattern to use real_pathdup() directly.

The problem with this change is that real_path() calls
strbuf_realpath() with die_on_error = 1 while real_pathdup() calls
it with die_on_error = 0. Meaning that in cases where real_path()
causes Git to die() with an error message, real_pathdup() is silent
and returns NULL instead.

The callers, however, are ill-prepared for that change, as they expect
the return value to be non-NULL (and otherwise the function died
with an appropriate error message).

Fix this by extending real_pathdup()'s signature to accept the
die_on_error flag and simply pass it through to strbuf_realpath(),
and then adjust all callers after a careful audit whether they would
handle NULLs well.

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 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 6b145e016a branch: restrict @-expansions when deleting
We use strbuf_branchname() to expand the branch name from
the command line, so you can delete the branch given by
@{-1}, for example.  However, we allow other nonsense like
"@", and we do not respect our "-r" flag (so we may end up
deleting an oddly-named local ref instead of a remote one).

We can fix this by passing the appropriate "allowed" flag to
strbuf_branchname().

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.

Stefan Beller d1b3b81aab submodule init: warn about falling back to a local path
When a submodule is initialized, the config variable 'submodule.<name>.url'
is set depending on the value of the same variable in the .gitmodules
file. When the URL indicates to be relative, then the url is computed
relative to its default remote. The default remote cannot be determined
accurately in all cases, such that it falls back to 'origin'.

The 'origin' remote may not exist, though. In that case we give up looking
for a suitable remote and we'll just assume it to be a local relative path.

This can be confusing to users as there is a lot of guessing involved,
which is not obvious to the user.

So in the corner case of assuming a local autoritative truth, warn the
user to lessen the confusion.

This behavior was introduced in 4d6893200 (submodule add: allow relative
repository path even when no url is set, 2011-06-06), which shared the
code with submodule-init and then ported to C in 3604242f08 (submodule:
port init from shell to C, 2016-04-15).

In case of submodule-add, this behavior makes sense in some use cases[1],
however for submodule-init there does not seem to be an immediate obvious
use case to fall back to a local submodule. However there might be, so
warn instead of die here.

While adding the warning, also clarify the behavior of relative URLs in
the documentation.
