Jeff King fcd12db6af prefer git_pathdup to git_path in some possibly-dangerous cases
Because git_path uses a static buffer that is shared with
calls to git_path, mkpath, etc, it can be dangerous to
assign the result to a variable or pass it to a non-trivial
function. The value may change unexpectedly due to other
calls.

None of the cases changed here has a known bug, but they're
worth converting away from git_path because:

  1. It's easy to use git_pathdup in these cases.

  2. They use constructs (like assignment) that make it
     hard to tell whether they're safe or not.

The extra malloc overhead should be trivial, as an
allocation should be an order of magnitude cheaper than a
system call (which we are clearly about to make, since we
are constructing a filename). The real cost is that we must
remember to free the result.

Junio C Hamano cb5add5868 sha1_file.c: rename move_temp_to_file() to finalize_object_file()
Since 5a688fe4 ("core.sharedrepository = 0mode" should set, not
loosen, 2009-03-25), we kept reminding ourselves:

    NEEDSWORK: this should be renamed to finalize_temp_file() as
    "moving" is only a part of what it does, when no patch between
    master to pu changes the call sites of this function.

without doing anything about it.  Let's do so.

The purpose of this function was not to move but to finalize.  The
detail of the primarily implementation of finalizing was to link the
temporary file to its final name and then to unlink, which wasn't
even "moving".  The alternative implementation did "move" by calling
rename(2), which is a fun tangent.

Junio C Hamano 3ecca8879a Merge branch 'mh/fast-import-optimize-current-from'
Often a fast-import stream builds a new commit on top of the
previous commit it built, and it often unconditionally emits a
"from" command to specify the first parent, which can be omitted in
such a case.  This caused fast-import to forget the tree of the
previous commit and then re-read it from scratch, which was
inefficient.  Optimize for this common case.

Mike Hommey 0df3245721 fast-import: do less work when given "from" matches current branch head
When building a fast-import stream, it's easy to forget the fact
that for non-merge commits happening on top of the current branch
head, there is no need for a "from" command. That is corroborated by
the fact that at least git-p4, hg-fast-export and felipec's
git-remote-hg all unconditionally use a "from" command.

Unfortunately, giving a "from" command always resets the branch
tree, forcing it to be re-read, and in many cases, the pack is also
closed and reopened through gfi_unpack_entry.  Both are unnecessary
overhead, and the latter is particularly slow at least on OSX.

Avoid resetting the tree when it's unmodified, and avoid calling
gfi_unpack_entry when the given mark points to the same commit as
the current branch head.

Michael Haggerty 28c7b1f7b7 fast-import: add a get-mark command
It is sometimes useful for importers to be able to read the SHA-1
corresponding to a mark that they have created via fast-import. For
example, they might want to embed the SHA-1 into the commit message of
a later commit. Or it might be useful for internal bookkeeping uses,
or for logging.

Add a "get-mark" command to "git fast-import" that allows the importer
to ask for the value of a mark that has been created earlier.

Jeff King a5481a6c94 convert "enum date_mode" into a struct
In preparation for adding date modes that may carry extra
information beyond the mode itself, this patch converts the
date_mode enum into a struct.

Most of the conversion is fairly straightforward; we pass
the struct as a pointer and dereference the type field where
necessary. Locations that declare a date_mode can use a "{}"
constructor.  However, the tricky case is where we use the
enum labels as constants, like:

  show_date(t, tz, DATE_NORMAL);

Ideally we could say:

  show_date(t, tz, &{ DATE_NORMAL });

but of course C does not allow that. Likewise, we cannot
cast the constant to a struct, because we need to pass an
actual address. Our options are basically:

  1. Manually add a "struct date_mode d = { DATE_NORMAL }"
     definition to each caller, and pass "&d". This makes
     the callers uglier, because they sometimes do not even
     have their own scope (e.g., they are inside a switch
     statement).

  2. Provide a pre-made global "date_normal" struct that can
     be passed by address. We'd also need "date_rfc2822",
     "date_iso8601", and so forth. But at least the ugliness
     is defined in one place.

  3. Provide a wrapper that generates the correct struct on
     the fly. The big downside is that we end up pointing to
     a single global, which makes our wrapper non-reentrant.
     But show_date is already not reentrant, so it does not
     matter.

This patch implements 3, along with a minor macro to keep
the size of the callers sane.

If we are deleting the reference, then we don't need to read the
reference's old value. It doesn't provide any race safety, because the
value read just before the delete is no "better" than the value that
would be read under lock during the delete. And even if the reference
previously didn't exist, we can call delete_ref() on it if we don't
provide an old_sha1 value.

Jeff King 5e915f3085 fast-import: avoid running end_packfile recursively
When an import has finished, we run end_packfile() to
finalize the data and move the packfile into place. If this
process fails, we call die() and end up in our die_nicely()
handler.  Which unfortunately includes running end_packfile
to save any progress we made. We enter the function again,
and start operating on the pack_data struct while it is in
an inconsistent state, leading to a segfault.

One way to trigger this is to simply start two identical
fast-imports at the same time. They will both create the
same packfiles, which will then try to create identically
named ".keep" files. One will win the race, and the other
will die(), and end up with the segfault.

Since 3c078b9, we already reset the pack_data pointer to
NULL at the end of end_packfile. That covers the case of us
calling die() right after end_packfile, before we have
reinitialized the pack_data pointer. This new problem is
quite similar, except that we are worried about calling
die() _during_ end_packfile, not right after. Ideally we
would simply set pack_data to NULL as soon as we enter the
function, and operate on a copy of the pointer.

Unfortunately, it is not so easy. pack_data is a global, and
end_packfile calls into other functions which operate on the
global directly. We would have to teach each of these to
take an argument, and there is no guarantee that we would
catch all of the spots.

Instead, we can simply use a static flag to avoid
recursively entering the function. This is a little less
elegant, but it's short and fool-proof.

Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy dcf692625a path.c: make get_pathname() call sites return const char *
Before the previous commit, get_pathname returns an array of PATH_MAX
length. Even if git_path() and similar functions does not use the
whole array, git_path() caller can, in theory.

After the commit, get_pathname() may return a buffer that has just
enough room for the returned string and git_path() caller should never
write beyond that.

Make git_path(), mkpath() and git_path_submodule() return a const
buffer to make sure callers do not write in it at all.

This could have been part of the previous commit, but the "const"
conversion is too much distraction from the core changes in path.c.

Jeff King c33ddc2e33 date: use strbufs in date-formatting functions
Many of the date functions write into fixed-size buffers.
This is a minor pain, as we have to take special
precautions, and frequently end up copying the result into a
strbuf or heap-allocated buffer anyway (for which we
sometimes use strcpy!).

Let's instead teach parse_date, datestamp, etc to write to a
strbuf. The obvious downside is that we might need to
perform a heap allocation where we otherwise would not need
to. However, it turns out that the only two new allocations
required are:

  1. In test-date.c, where we don't care about efficiency.

  2. In determine_author_info, which is not performance
     critical (and where the use of a strbuf will help later
     refactoring).

Jeff King 3c078b9c86 fast-import: clean up pack_data pointer in end_packfile
We have a global pointer pack_data pointing to the current
pack we have open. Inside end_packfile we have two new
pointers, old_p and new_p. The latter points to pack_data,
and the former points to the new "installed" version of the
packfile we get when we hand the file off to the regular
sha1_file machinery. When then free old_p.

Presumably the extra old_p pointer was there so that we
could overwrite pack_data with new_p and still free old_p,
but we don't do that. We just leave pack_data pointing to
bogus memory, and don't overwrite it until we call
start_packfile again (if ever).

This can cause problems for our die routine, which calls
end_packfile to clean things up. If we die at the wrong
moment, we can end up looking at invalid memory in
pack_data left after the last end_packfile().

Instead, let's make sure we set pack_data to NULL after we
free it, and make calling endfile() again with a NULL
pack_data a noop (there is nothing to end).

We can further make things less confusing by dropping old_p
entirely, and moving new_p closer to its point of use.

Jeff King e814c39c2f fast-import: refactor parsing of spaces
When we see a file change in a commit, we expect one of:

  1. A mark.

  2. An "inline" keyword.

  3. An object sha1.

The handling of spaces is inconsistent between the three
options. Option 1 calls a sub-function which checks for the
space, but doesn't parse past it. Option 2 parses the space,
then deliberately avoids moving the pointer past it. Option
3 detects the space locally but doesn't move past it.

This is confusing, because it looks like option 1 forgets to
check for the space (it's just buried). And option 2 checks
for "inline ", but only moves strlen("inline") characters
forward, which looks like a bug but isn't.

We can make this more clear by just having each branch move
past the space as it is checked (and we can replace the
doubled use of "inline" with a call to skip_prefix).

Jeff King 97313bef2a fast-import: use skip_prefix for parsing input
Fast-import does a lot of parsing of commands and
dispatching to sub-functions. For example, given "option
foo", we might recognize "option " using starts_with, and
then hand it off to parse_option() to do the rest.

However, we do not let parse_option know that we have parsed
the first part already. It gets the full buffer, and has to
skip past the uninteresting bits. Some functions simply add
a magic constant:

  char *option = command_buf.buf + 7;

Others use strlen:

  char *option = command_buf.buf + strlen("option ");

And others use strchr:

  char *option = strchr(command_buf.buf, ' ') + 1;

All of these are brittle and easy to get wrong (especially
given that the starts_with call and the code that assumes
the presence of the prefix are far apart). Instead, we can
use skip_prefix, and just pass each handler a pointer to its
arguments.

Jeff King ae021d8791 use skip_prefix to avoid magic numbers
It's a common idiom to match a prefix and then skip past it
with a magic number, like:

  if (starts_with(foo, "bar"))
	  foo += 3;

This is easy to get wrong, since you have to count the
prefix string yourself, and there's no compiler check if the
string changes.  We can use skip_prefix to avoid the magic
numbers here.

Note that some of these conversions could be much shorter.
For example:

  if (starts_with(arg, "--foo=")) {
	  bar = arg + 6;
	  continue;
  }

could become:

  if (skip_prefix(arg, "--foo=", &bar))
	  continue;

However, I have left it as:

  if (skip_prefix(arg, "--foo=", &v)) {
	  bar = v;
	  continue;
  }

to visually match nearby cases which need to actually
process the string. Like:

  if (skip_prefix(arg, "--foo=", &v)) {
	  bar = atoi(v);
	  continue;
  }

Jeff King ff45c0d4a3 fast-import: fix read of uninitialized argv memory
Fast-import shares code between its command-line parser and
the "option" command. To do so, it strips the "--" from any
command-line options and passes them to the option parser.
However, it does not confirm that the option even begins
with "--" before blindly passing "arg + 2".

It does confirm that the option starts with "-", so the only
affected case was:

  git fast-import -

which would read uninitialized memory after the argument. We
can fix it by using skip_prefix and checking the result. As
a bonus, this gets rid of some magic numbers.

Christian Couder 5955654823 replace {pre,suf}fixcmp() with {starts,ends}_with()
Leaving only the function definitions and declarations so that any
new topic in flight can still make use of the old functions, replace
existing uses of the prefixcmp() and suffixcmp() with new API
functions.

The change can be recreated by mechanically applying this:

    $ git grep -l -e prefixcmp -e suffixcmp -- \*.c |
      grep -v strbuf\\.c |
      xargs perl -pi -e '
        s|!prefixcmp\(|starts_with\(|g;
        s|prefixcmp\(|!starts_with\(|g;
        s|!suffixcmp\(|ends_with\(|g;
        s|suffixcmp\(|!ends_with\(|g;
      '

on the result of preparatory changes in this series.
