When handling OPT_FILENAME(), we have to stick the "prefix" (if any) in
front of the filename to make up for the fact that Git has chdir()'d to
the top of the repository. We can do this with prefix_filename(), but
there are a few special cases we handle ourselves.
Unfortunately the memory allocation is inconsistent here; if we do make
it to prefix_filename(), we'll allocate a string which the caller must
free to avoid a leak. But if we hit our special cases, we'll return the
string as-is, and a caller which tries to free it will crash. So there's
no way to win.
Let's consistently allocate, so that callers can do the right thing.
There are now three cases to care about in the function (and hence a
three-armed if/else):
1. we got a NULL input (and should leave it as NULL, though arguably
this is the sign of a bug; let's keep the status quo for now and we
can pick at that scab later)
2. we hit a special case that means we leave the name intact; we
should duplicate the string. This includes our special "-"
matching. Prior to this patch, it also included empty prefixes and
absolute filenames. But we can observe that prefix_filename()
already handles these, so we don't need to detect them.
3. everything else goes to prefix_filename()
I've dropped the "const" from the "char **file" parameter to indicate
that we're allocating, though in practice it's not really important.
This is all being shuffled through a void pointer via opt->value before
it hits code which ever looks at the string. And it's even a bit weird,
because we are really taking _in_ a const string and using the same
out-parameter for a non-const string. A better function signature would
be:
static char *fix_filename(const char *prefix, const char *file);
but that would mean the caller dereferences the double-pointer (and the
NULL check is currently handled inside this function). So I took the
path of least-change here.
Note that we have to fix several callers in this commit, too, or we'll
break the leak-checking tests. These are "new" leaks in the sense that
they are now triggered by the test suite, but these spots have always
been leaky when Git is run in a subdirectory of the repository. I fixed
all of the cases that trigger with GIT_TEST_PASSING_SANITIZE_LEAK. There
may be others in scripts that have other leaks, but we can fix them
later along with those other leaks (and again, you _couldn't_ fix them
before this patch, so this is the necessary first step).

A user can specify a filename to a command from the command line,
either as the value given to a command line option, or a command
line argument. When it is given as a relative filename, in the
user's mind, it is relative to the directory "git" was started from,
but by the time the filename is used, "git" would almost always have
chdir()'ed up to the root level of the working tree.
The given filename, if it is relative, needs to be prefixed with the
path to the current directory, and it typically is done by calling
prefix_filename() helper function. For commands that can also take
"-" to use the standard input or the standard output, however, this
needs to be done with care.
"git bundle create" uses the next word on the command line as the
output filename, and can take "-" to mean "write to the standard
output". It blindly called prefix_filename(), so running it in a
subdirectory did not quite work as expected.
Introduce a new helper, prefix_filename_except_for_dash(), and use
it to help "git bundle create" codepath.

For writing, "bundle create -" indicates that the bundle should be
written to stdout. But there's no matching handling of "-" for reading
operations. This is inconsistent, and a little inflexible (though one
can always use "/dev/stdin" on systems that support it).
However, it's easy to change. Once upon a time, the bundle-reading code
required a seekable descriptor, but that was fixed long ago in
e9ee84cf28 (bundle: allowing to read from an unseekable fd,
2011-10-13). So we just need to handle "-" explicitly when opening the
file.
We _could_ do this by handling "-" in read_bundle_header(), which the
reading functions all call already. But that is probably a bad idea.
It's also used by low-level code like the transport functions, and we
may want to be more careful there. We do not know that stdin is even
available to us, and certainly we would not want to get confused by a
configured URL that happens to point to "-".
So instead, let's add a helper to builtin/bundle.c. Since both the
bundle code and some of the callers refer to the bundle by name for
error messages, let's use the string "<stdin>" to make the output a bit
nicer to read.

In 79862b6b77 (bundle-create: progress output control, 2019-11-10),
"bundle create" learned about the --all-progress and
--all-progress-implied options, which were copied from pack-objects.
I think these were a mistake.
In pack-objects, "all-progress-implied" is about switching the behavior
between a regular on-disk "git repack" and the use of pack-objects for
push/fetch (where a fetch does not want progress from the server during
the write stage; the client will print progress as it receives the
data). But there's no such distinction for bundles. Prior to
79862b6b77, we always printed the write stage. Afterwards, a vanilla:
git bundle create foo.bundle
omits the write progress, appearing to hang (especially if your
repository is large or your disk is slow). That seems like a regression.
It's possible that the flexibility to disable the write-phase progress
_could_ be useful for bundle. E.g., if you did something like:
ssh some-host git bundle create foo.bundle |
git bundle unbundle
But if you are running both in real-time, why are you using bundles in
the first place? You're better off doing a real fetch.
But even if we did want to support that, it should be the exception, and
vanilla "bundle create" should display the full progress. So we'd want
to name the option "--no-write-progress" or something.
The "--all-progress" option itself is even worse. It exists in
pack-objects only for historical reasons. It's a mistake because it
implies "--progress", and we added "--all-progress-implied" to fix that.
There is no reason to propagate that mistake to new commands.
Likewise, the documentation for these options was pulled from
pack-objects. But it doesn't make any sense in this context. It talks
about "--stdout", but that is not even an option that git-bundle
supports.
This patch flips the default for "--all-progress-implied" back to
"true", fixing the regression in 79862b6b77. This turns that option
into a noop, and means that "--all-progress" is really the same as
"--progress". We _could_ drop them completely, but since they've been
shipped with Git since v2.25.0, it's polite to continue accepting them.
I didn't implement any sort of "--no-write-progress" here. I'm not at
all convinced it's necessary, and the discussion from the original
thread:
https://lore.kernel.org/git/20191110204126.30553-2-robbat2@gentoo.org/
shows that that the main focus was on getting --progress and --quiet
support, and not any kind of clever "real-time bundle over the network"
feature. But technically this patch is making it impossible to do
something that you _could_ do post-79862b6b77c.

We discourage the creation/update of single-level refs
because some upper-layer applications only work in specified
reference namespaces, such as "refs/heads/*" or "refs/tags/*",
these single-level refnames may not be recognized. However,
we still hope users can delete them which have been created
by mistake.
Therefore, when updating branches on the server with
"git receive-pack", by checking whether it is a branch deletion
operation, it will determine whether to allow the update of
a single-level refs. This avoids creating/updating such
single-level refs, but allows them to be deleted.
On the client side, "git push" also does not properly fill in
the old-oid of single-level refs, which causes the server-side
"git receive-pack" to think that the ref's old-oid has changed
when deleting single-level refs, this causes the push to be
rejected. So the solution is to fix the client to be able to
delete single-level refs by properly filling old-oid.

In fb64ca526a (fsck: check index files in all worktrees, 2023-02-24), we
swapped out a call to vanilla repo_read_index() for a series of
read_index_from() calls, one per worktree. The code for the latter was
copied from add_index_objects_to_pending(), which checks for a positive
return value from the index reading function, and we do the same here in
fsck now.
But this is probably the wrong thing. I had interpreted the check as
"don't operate on the index struct if there was an error". But in
reality, if there is an error then the index-reading code will simply
die (which admittedly is not great for fsck, but that is not a new
problem).
The return value here is actually the number of entries read. So it
makes sense for add_index_objects_to_pending() to ignore a zero-entry
index (there is nothing to add). But for fsck, we would still want to
check any extensions, etc (though presumably it is unlikely to have them
in an empty index, I don't think it's impossible).
So we should ignore the return value from read_index_from() entirely.
This matches the behavior before fb64ca526a, when we ignored the return
value from repo_read_index().

If we encounter an error in an index file, we may say something like:
error: 1234abcd: invalid sha1 pointer in resolve-undo
But if you have multiple worktrees, each with its own index, it can be
very helpful to know which file had the problem. So let's pass that path
down through the various index-fsck functions and use it where
appropriate. After this patch you should get something like:
error: 1234abcd: invalid sha1 pointer in resolve-undo of .git/worktrees/wt/index
That's a bit verbose, but since the point is that you shouldn't see this
normally, we're better to err on the side of more details.
I've also added the index filename to the name used by "fsck
--name-objects", which will show up if we find the object to be missing,
etc. This is bending the rules a little there, as the option claims to
write names that can be fed to rev-parse. But there is no revision
syntax to access the index of another worktree, so the best we can do is
make up something that a human will probably understand.
I did take care to retain the existing ":file" syntax for the current
worktree. So the uglier output should kick in only when it's actually
necessary. See the included tests for examples of both forms.

Some passwords have an expiry date known at generation. This may be
years away for a personal access token or hours for an OAuth access
token.
When multiple credential helpers are configured, `credential fill` tries
each helper in turn until it has a username and password, returning
early. If Git authentication succeeds, `credential approve`
stores the successful credential in all helpers. If authentication
fails, `credential reject` erases matching credentials in all helpers.
Helpers implement corresponding operations: get, store, erase.
The credential protocol has no expiry attribute, so helpers cannot
store expiry information. Even if a helper returned an improvised
expiry attribute, git credential discards unrecognised attributes
between operations and between helpers.
This is a particular issue when a storage helper and a
credential-generating helper are configured together:
[credential]
helper = storage # eg. cache or osxkeychain
helper = generate # eg. oauth
`credential approve` stores the generated credential in both helpers
without expiry information. Later `credential fill` may return an
expired credential from storage. There is no workaround, no matter how
clever the second helper. The user sees authentication fail (a retry
will succeed).
Introduce a password expiry attribute. In `credential fill`, ignore
expired passwords and continue to query subsequent helpers.
In the example above, `credential fill` ignores the expired password
and a fresh credential is generated. If authentication succeeds,
`credential approve` replaces the expired password in storage.
If authentication fails, the expired credential is erased by
`credential reject`. It is unnecessary but harmless for storage
helpers to self prune expired credentials.
Add support for the new attribute to credential-cache.
Eventually, I hope to see support in other popular storage helpers.
