2024-11-21strvec: introduce new `strvec_splice()` functionPatrick Steinhardt3-0/+93
Introduce a new `strvec_splice()` function that can replace a range of strings in the vector with another array of strings. This function will be used in subsequent commits. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2024-11-21line-log: fix leak when rewriting commit parentsPatrick Steinhardt2-0/+2
In `process_ranges_merge_commit()` we try to figure out which of the parents can be blamed for the given line changes. When we figure out that none of the files in the line-log have changed we assign the complete blame to that commit and rewrite the parents of the current commit to only use that single parent. This is done via `commit_list_append()`, which is misleadingly _not_ appending to the list of parents. Instead, we overwrite the parents with the blamed parent. This makes us lose track of the old pointers, creating a memory leak. Fix this issue by freeing the parents before we overwrite them.

2024-11-21bisect: fix various cases where we leak commit list itemsPatrick Steinhardt2-8/+23
There are various cases where we leak commit list items because we evict items from the list, but don't free them. Plug those. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2024-11-21bisect: fix leaking commit list items in `check_merge_base()`Patrick Steinhardt1-2/+2
While we free the result commit list at the end of `check_merge_base()`, we forget to free any items that we have already iterated over. Fix this by using a separate variable to iterate through them. This leak is exposed by t6030, but plugging it does not make the whole test suite pass. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2024-11-21bisect: fix multiple leaks in `bisect_next_all()`Patrick Steinhardt1-2/+3
There are multiple leaks in `bisect_next_all()`. For one we don't free the `tried` commit list. Second, one of the branches uses a direct return instead of jumping to the cleanup code. Fix these by freeing the commit list and converting the return to a goto. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2024-11-21bisect: fix leaking `current_bad_oid`Patrick Steinhardt1-0/+1
When reading bisect refs we read the reference mapping to the "bad" term into the global `current_bad_oid` variable. This is an allocated string, but because it is global we never have to free it. This changes though when `register_ref()` is being called multiple times, at which point we'll overwrite the previous pointer and thus make it unreachable. Fix this issue by freeing the previous value. This leak is exposed by t6030, but plugging it does not make the whole test suite pass.

2024-11-21bisect: fix leaking string in `handle_bad_merge_base()`Patrick Steinhardt1-0/+2
When handling a bad merge base we print an error, which includes the set of good revisions joined by spaces. This string is allocated, but never freed. Fix this memory leak. Note that the local `bad_hex` varible also looks like a string that we should free. But in fact, `oid_to_hex()` returns an address to a static variable even though it is declared to return a non-constant string. The function signature is thus quite misleading and really should be fixed, but doing so is outside of the scope of this patch series.

2024-11-21bisect: fix leaking good/bad terms when reading multipe timesPatrick Steinhardt3-8/+12
Even though `read_bisect_terms()` is declared as assigning string constants, it in fact assigns allocated strings to the `read_bad` and `read_good` out parameters. The only callers of this function assign the result to global variables and thus don't have to free them in order to be leak-free. But that changes when executing the function multiple times because we'd then overwrite the previous value and thus make it unreachable. Fix the function signature and free the previous values. This leak is exposed by t0630, but plugging it does not make the whole test suite pass. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2024-11-21builtin/blame: fix leaking blame entries with `--incremental`Patrick Steinhardt4-7/+10
When passing `--incremental` to git-blame(1) we exit early by jumping to the `cleanup` label. But some of the cleanups we perform are handled between the `goto` and its label, and thus we leak the data. Move the cleanups after the `cleanup` label. While at it, move the logic to free the scoreboard's `final_buf` into `cleanup_scoreboard()` and drop its `const` declaration.

2024-11-04list-objects-filter-options: work around reported leak on errorPatrick Steinhardt2-10/+8
This one is a little bit more curious. In t6112, we have a test that exercises the `git rev-list --filter` option with invalid filters. We execute git-rev-list(1) via `test_must_fail`, which means that we check for leaks even though Git exits with an error code. This causes the following leak: Direct leak of 27 byte(s) in 1 object(s) allocated from: #0 0x5555555e6946 in realloc.part.0 lsan_interceptors.cpp.o #1 0x5555558fb4b6 in xrealloc wrapper.c:137:8 #2 0x5555558b6e06 in strbuf_grow strbuf.c:112:2 #3 0x5555558b7550 in strbuf_add strbuf.c:311:2 #4 0x5555557c1a88 in strbuf_addstr strbuf.h:310:2 #5 0x5555557c1d4c in parse_list_objects_filter list-objects-filter-options.c:261:3 #6 0x555555885ead in handle_revision_pseudo_opt revision.c:2899:3 #7 0x555555884e20 in setup_revisions revision.c:3014:11 #8 0x5555556c4b42 in cmd_rev_list builtin/rev-list.c:588:9 #9 0x5555555ec5e3 in run_builtin git.c:483:11 #10 0x5555555eb1e4 in handle_builtin git.c:749:13 #11 0x5555555ec001 in run_argv git.c:819:4 #12 0x5555555eaf94 in cmd_main git.c:954:19 #13 0x5555556fd569 in main common-main.c:64:11 #14 0x7ffff7ca714d in __libc_start_call_main (.../lib/libc.so.6+0x2a14d) #15 0x7ffff7ca7208 in __libc_start_main@GLIBC_2.2.5 (.../libc.so.6+0x2a208) #16 0x5555555ad064 in _start (git+0x59064) This leak is valid, as we call `die()` and do not clean up the memory at all. But what's curious is that this is the only leak reported, because we don't clean up any other allocated memory, either, and I have no idea why the leak sanitizer treats this buffer specially. In any case, we can work around the leak by shuffling things around a bit. Instead of calling `gently_parse_list_objects_filter()` and dying after we have modified the filter spec, we simply do so beforehand. Like this we don't allocate the buffer in the error case, which makes the reported leak go away. It's not pretty, but it manages to make t6112 leak free.

2024-11-04builtin/merge: release output buffer after performing mergePatrick Steinhardt2-0/+2
The `obuf` member of `struct merge_options` is used to buffer output in some cases. In order to not discard its allocated memory we only release its contents in `merge_finalize()` when we're not currently recursing into a subtree. This results in some situations where we seemingly do not release the buffer reliably. We thus have calls to `strbuf_release()` for this buffer scattered across the codebase. But we're missing one callsite in git-merge(1), which causes a memory leak. We should ideally refactor this interface so that callers don't have to know about any such internals. But for now, paper over the issue by adding one more `strbuf_release()` call. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2024-11-04dir: fix leak when parsing "status.showUntrackedFiles"Patrick Steinhardt2-2/+3
We use `repo_config_get_string()` to read "status.showUntrackedFiles" from the config subsystem. This function allocates the result, but we never free the result after parsing it. The value never leaves the scope of the calling function, so refactor it to instead use `repo_config_get_string_tmp()`, which does not hand over ownership to the caller.

2024-11-04t/helper: fix leaking buffer in "dump-untracked-cache"Patrick Steinhardt1-0/+2
We never release the local `struct strbuf base` buffer, thus leaking memory. Fix this leak. This leak is exposed by t7063, but plugging it alone does not make the whole test suite pass. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2024-11-04t/helper: stop re-initialization of `the_repository`Patrick Steinhardt2-2/+1
While "common-main.c" already initializes `the_repository` for us, we do so a second time in the "read-cache" test helper. This causes a memory leak because the old repository's contents isn't released. Stop calling `initialize_repository()` to plug this leak.

2024-11-04sparse-index: correctly free EWAH contentsPatrick Steinhardt1-2/+5
While we free the `fsmonitor_dirty` member of `struct index_state`, we do not free the contents of that EWAH. Do so by using `ewah_free()` instead of `FREE_AND_NULL()`. This leak is exposed by t7519, but plugging it alone does not make the test suite pass. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2024-11-04dir: release untracked cache dataPatrick Steinhardt1-0/+8
There are several cases where we invalidate untracked cache directory entries where we do not free the underlying data, but reset the number of entries. This causes us to leak memory because `free_untracked()` will not iterate over any potential entries which we still had in the array. Fix this issue by freeing old entries. The leak is exposed by t7519, but plugging it alone does not make the whole test suite pass. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2024-11-04combine-diff: fix leaking lost linesPatrick Steinhardt2-2/+4
The `cnt` variable tracks the number of lines in a patch diff. It can happen though that there are no newlines, in which case we'd still end up allocating our array of `sline`s. In fact, we always allocate it with `cnt + 2` entries: one extra entry for the deletion hunk at the end, and another entry that we don't seem to ever populate at all but acts as a kind of sentinel value. When we loop through the array to clear it at the end of this function we only loop until `lno < cnt`, and thus we may not end up releasing whatever the two extra `sline`s contain. While that shouldn't matter for the sentinel value, it does matter for the extra deletion hunk sline. Regardless of that, plug this memory leak by releasing both extra entries, which makes the logic a bit easier to reason about. While at it, fix the formatting of a local comment, which incidentally also provides the necessary context for why we overallocate the `sline` array.

2024-11-04trailer: fix leaking strbufs when formatting trailersPatrick Steinhardt2-5/+8
When formatting trailer lines we iterate through each of the trailers and munge their respective token/value pairs according to the trailer options. When formatting a trailer that has its `item->token` pointer set we perform the munging in two local buffers. In the case where we figure out that the value is empty and `trim_empty` is set we just skip over the trailer item. But the buffers are local to the loop and we don't release their contents, leading to a memory leak. Plug this leak by lifting the buffers outside of the loop and releasing them on function return. This fixes the memory leaks, but also optimizes the loop as we don't have to reallocate the buffers on every single iteration.

2024-11-04diff-lib: fix leaking diffopts in `do_diff_cache()`Patrick Steinhardt2-0/+2
In `do_diff_cache()` we initialize a new `rev_info` and then overwrite its `diffopt` with a user-provided set of options. This can leak memory because `repo_init_revisions()` may end up allocating memory for the `diffopt` itself depending on the configuration. And since that field is overwritten we won't ever free it.

2024-10-28t6006: fix prereq handling with `test_format ()`Patrick Steinhardt1-4/+4
In df383b5842 (t/test-lib: wire up NO_ICONV prerequisite, 2024-10-16) we have introduced a new NO_ICONV prerequisite that makes us skip tests in case Git is not compiled with support for iconv. This change subtly broke t6006: while the test suite still passes, some of its tests won't execute because they run into an error. ./t6006-rev-list-format.sh: line 92: test_expect_%e: command not found The broken tests use `test_format ()`, and the mentioned commit simply prepended the new prerequisite to its arguments. But that does not work, as the function is not aware of prereqs at all and will now treat all of its arguments incorrectly. Fix this by making the function aware of prereqs by accepting an optional fourth argument. Adapt the callsites accordingly.

2024-10-25packfile: use oidread() instead of hashcpy() to fill object_idJeff King1-1/+1
When chasing a REF_DELTA, we need to pull the raw hash bytes out of the mmap'd packfile into an object_id struct. We do that with a raw hashcpy() of the appropriate length (that happens directly now, though before the previous commit it happened inside find_pack_entry_one(), also using a hashcpy). But I think this creates a potentially dangerous situation due to d4d364b2c7 (hash: convert `oidcmp()` and `oideq()` to compare whole hash, 2024-06-14). When using sha1, we'll have uninitialized bytes in the latter part of the object_id.hash buffer, which could fool oideq(), etc. We should use oidread() instead, which correctly zero-pads the extra bytes, as of c98d762ed9 (global: ensure that object IDs are always padded, 2024-06-14). As far as I can see, this has not been a problem in practice because the object_id we feed to find_pack_entry_one() is never used with oideq(), etc. It is being compared to the bytes mmap'd from a pack idx file, which of course do not have the extra padding bytes themselves. So there's no bug here, but this just puzzled me while looking at the code. We should do the more obviously safe thing, both for future-proofing and to avoid confusing readers.

2024-10-25packfile: use object_id in find_pack_entry_one()Jeff King7-18/+18
The main function we use to search a pack index for an object is find_pack_entry_one(). That function still takes a bare pointer to the hash, despite the fact that its underlying bsearch_pack() function needs an object_id struct. And so we end up making an extra copy of the hash into the struct just to do a lookup. As it turns out, all callers but one already have such an object_id. So we can just take a pointer to that struct and use it directly. This avoids the extra copy and provides a more type-safe interface. The one exception is get_delta_base() in packfile.c, when we are chasing a REF_DELTA from inside the pack (and thus we have a pointer directly to the mmap'd pack memory, not a struct). We can just bump the hashcpy() from inside find_pack_entry_one() to this one caller that needs it. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Taylor Blau <me@ttaylorr.com>
2024-10-25packfile: convert find_sha1_pack() to use object_idJeff King5-12/+15
The find_sha1_pack() function has a few problems: - it's badly named, since it works with any object hash - it takes the hash as a bare pointer rather than an object_id struct We can fix both of these easily, as all callers actually have a real object_id anyway. I also found the existence of this function somewhat confusing, as it is about looking in an arbitrary set of linked packed_git structs. It's good for things like dumb-http which are looking in downloaded remote packs, and not our local packs. But despite the name, it is not a good way to find the pack which contains a local object (it skips the use of the midx, the pack mru list, and so on). So let's also add an explanatory comment above the declaration that may point people in the right direction. I suspect the calls in fast-import.c, which use the packed_git list from the repository struct, could actually just be using find_pack_entry(). But since we'd need to keep it anyway for dumb-http, I didn't dig further there. If we eventually drop dumb-http support, then it might be worth examining them to see if we can get rid of the function entirely.

2024-10-25http-walker: use object_id instead of bare hashJeff King3-16/+17
We long ago switched most code to using object_id structs instead of bare "unsigned char *" hashes. This gives us more type safety from the compiler, and generally makes it easier to understand what we expect in each parameter. But the dumb-http code has lagged behind. And indeed, the whole "walker" subsystem interface has the same problem, though http-walker is the only user left. So let's update the walker interface to pass object_id structs (which we already have anyway at all call sites!), and likewise use those within the http-walker methods that it calls. This cleans up the dumb-http code a bit, but will also let us fix a few more commonly used helper functions. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Taylor Blau <me@ttaylorr.com>
2024-10-25packfile: warn people away from parse_packed_git()Jeff King1-1/+10
With a name like parse_packed_git(), you might think it's the right way to access a local pack index and its associated objects. But not so! It's a one-off used by the dumb-http code to access pack idx files we've downloaded from the remote, but whose packs we might not have. There's only one caller left for this function, and ideally we'd drop it completely and just inline it there. But that would require exposing other internals from packfile.[ch], like alloc_packed_git() and check_packed_git_idx(). So let's leave it be for now, and just warn people that it's probably not what they're looking for. Perhaps in the long run if we eventually drop dumb-http support, we can remove the function entirely then. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Taylor Blau <me@ttaylorr.com>

While this command is marked for potential removal in our BreakingChanges document, we still have it for now. But it's simple enough to convert it to use its own strbuf with the underlying odb_pack_name() function, letting us drop the otherwise obsolete function.

2024-10-25packfile: drop has_pack_index()Jeff King3-17/+8
The has_pack_index() function has several oddities that may make it surprising if you are trying to find out if we have a pack with some $hash: - it is not looking for a valid pack that we found while searching object directories. It just looks for any pack-$hash.idx file in the pack directory. - it only looks in the local directory, not any alternates - it takes a bare "unsigned char" hash, which we try to avoid these days The only caller it has is in the dumb http code; it wants to know if we already have the pack idx in question. This can happen if we downloaded the pack (and generated its index) during a previous fetch. Before the previous patch ("dumb-http: store downloaded pack idx as tempfile"), it could also happen if we downloaded the .idx from the remote but didn't get the matching .pack. But since that patch, we don't hold on to those .idx files. So there's no need to look for the .idx file in the filesystem; we can just scan through the packed_git list to see if we have it. That lets us simplify the dumb http code a bit, as we know that if we have the .idx we have the matching .pack already. And it lets us get rid of this odd function that is unlikely to be needed again. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Taylor Blau <me@ttaylorr.com>
2024-10-25dumb-http: store downloaded pack idx as tempfileJeff King3-7/+41
This patch fixes a regression in b1b8dfde69 (finalize_object_file(): implement collision check, 2024-09-26) where fetching a v1 pack idx file over the dumb-http protocol would cause the fetch to fail. The core of the issue is that dumb-http stores the idx we fetch from the remote at the same path that will eventually hold the idx we generate from "index-pack --stdin". The sequence is something like this: 0. We realize we need some object X, which we don't have locally, and nor does the other side have it as a loose object. 1. We download the list of remote packs from objects/info/packs. 2. For each entry in that file, we download each pack index and store it locally in .git/objects/pack/pack-$hash.idx (the $hash is not something we can verify yet and is given to us by the remote). 3. We check each pack index we got to see if it has object X. When we find a match, we download the matching .pack file from the remote to a tempfile. We feed that to "index-pack --stdin", which reindexes the pack, rather than trusting that it has what the other side claims it does. In most cases, this will end up generating the exact same (byte-for-byte) pack index which we'll store at the same pack-$hash.idx path, because the index generation and $hash id are computed based on what's in the packfile. But: a. The other side might have used other options to generate the index. For instance we use index v2 by default, but long ago it was v1 (and you can still ask for v1 explicitly). b. The other side might even use a different mechanism to determine $hash. E.g., long ago it was based on the sorted list of objects in the packfile, but we switched to using the pack checksum in 1190a1acf8 (pack-objects: name pack files after trailer hash, 2013-12-05). The regression we saw in the real world was (3a). A recent client fetching from a server with a v1 index downloaded that index, then complained about trying to overwrite it with its own v2 index. This collision is otherwise harmless; we know we want to replace the remote version with our local one, but the collision check doesn't realize that. There are a few options to fix it: - we could teach index-pack a command-line option to ignore only pack idx collisions, and use it when the dumb-http code invokes index-pack. This would be an awkward thing to expose users to and would involve a lot of boilerplate to get the option down to the collision code. - we could delete the remote .idx file right before running index-pack. It should be redundant at that point (since we've just downloaded the matching pack). But it feels risky to delete something from our own .git/objects based on what the other side has said. I'm not entirely positive that a malicious server couldn't lie about which pack-$hash.idx it has and get us to delete something precious. - we can stop co-mingling the downloaded idx files in our local objects directory. This is a slightly bigger change but I think fixes the root of the problem more directly. This patch implements the third option. The big design questions are: where do we store the downloaded files, and how do we manage their lifetimes? There are some additional quirks to the dumb-http system we should consider. Remember that in step 2 we downloaded every pack index, but in step 3 we may only download some of the matching packs. What happens to those other idx files now? They sit in the .git/objects/pack directory, possibly waiting to be used at a later date. That may save bandwidth for a subsequent fetch, but it also creates a lot of weird corner cases: - our local object directory now has semi-untrusted .idx files sitting around, without their matching .pack - in case 3b, we noted that we might not generate the same hash as the other side. In that case even if we download the matching pack, our index-pack invocation will store it in a different pack-$hash.idx file. And the unmatched .idx will sit there forever. - if the server repacks, it may delete the old packs. Now we have these orphaned .idx files sitting around locally that will never be used (nor deleted). - if we repack locally we may delete our local version of the server's pack index and not realize we have it. So we'll download it again, even though we have all of the objects it mentions. I think the right solution here is probably some more complex cache management system: download the remote .idx files to their own storage directory, mark them as "seen" when we get their matching pack (to avoid re-downloading even if we repack), and then delete them when the server's objects/info/refs no longer mentions them. But since the dumb http protocol is so ancient and so inferior to the smart http protocol, I don't think it's worth spending a lot of time creating such a system. For this patch I'm just downloading the idx files to .git/objects/tmp_pack_*, and marking them as tempfiles to be deleted when we exit (and due to the name, any we miss due to a crash, etc, should eventually be removed by "git gc" runs based on timestamps). That is slightly worse for one case: if we download an idx but not the matching pack, we won't retain that idx for subsequent runs. But the flip side is that we're making other cases better (we never hold on to useless idx files forever). I suspect that worse case does not even come up often, since it implies that the packs are generated to match distinct parts of history (i.e., in practice even in a repo with many packs you're going to end up grabbing all of those packs to do a clone). If somebody really cares about that, I think the right path forward is a managed cache directory as above, and this patch is providing the first step in that direction anyway (by moving things out of the objects/pack/ directory). There are two test changes. One demonstrates the broken v1 index case (it double-checks the resulting clone with fsck to be careful, but prior to this patch it actually fails at the clone step). The other tweaks the expectation for a test that covers the "slightly worse" case to accommodate the extra index download. The code changes are fairly simple. We stop using finalize_object_file() to copy the remote's index file into place, and leave it as a tempfile. We give the tempfile a real ".idx" name, since the packfile code expects that, and thus we make sure it is out of the usual packs/ directory (so we'd never mistake it for a real local .idx). We also have to change parse_pack_index(), which creates a temporary packed_git to access our index (we need this because all of the pack idx code assumes we have that struct). It reads the index data from the tempfile, but prior to this patch would speculatively write the finalized name into the packed_git struct using the pack-$hash we expect to use. I was mildly surprised that this worked at all, since we call verify_pack_index() on the packed_git which mentions the final name before moving the file into place! But it works because parse_pack_index() leaves the mmap-ed data in the struct, so the lazy-open in verify_pack_index() never triggers, and we read from the tempfile, ignoring the filename in the struct completely. Hacky, but it works. After this patch, parse_pack_index() now uses the index filename we pass in to derive a matching .pack name. This is OK to change because there are only two callers, both in the dumb http code (and the other passes in an existing pack-$hash.idx name, so the derived name is going to be pack-$hash.pack, which is what we were using anyway). I'll follow up with some more cleanups in that area, but this patch is sufficient to fix the regression.

We have a test in t5550 that looks at index fetching over dumb http. It creates two branches, each of which is completely stored in its own pack, then fetches the branches independently. What should (and does) happen is that the first fetch grabs both .idx files and one .pack file, and then the fetch of the second branch re-uses the previously downloaded .idx files (fetching none) and grabs the now-required .pack file.

2024-10-25midx: avoid duplicate packed_git entriesJeff King2-3/+25
When we scan a pack directory to load the idx entries we find into the packed_git list, we skip any of them that are contained in a midx. We then load them later lazily if we actually need to access the corresponding pack, referencing them both from the midx struct and the packed_git list. The lazy-load in the midx code checks to see if the midx already mentions the pack, but doesn't otherwise check the packed_git list. This makes sense, since we should have added any pack to both lists. But there's a loophole! If we call close_object_store(), that frees the midx entirely, but _not_ the packed_git structs, which we must keep around for Reasons[1]. If we then try to look up more objects, we'll auto-load the midx again, which won't realize that we've already loaded those packs, and will create duplicate entries in the packed_git list. This is possibly inefficient, because it means we may open and map the pack redundantly. But it can also lead to weird user-visible behavior. The case I found is in "git repack", which closes and reopens the midx after repacking and then calls update_server_info(). We end up writing the duplicate entries into objects/info/packs. We could obviously de-dup them while writing that file, but it seems like a violation of more core assumptions that we end up with these duplicate structs at all. We can avoid the duplicates reasonably efficiently by checking their names in the pack_map hash. This annoyingly does require a little more than a straight hash lookup due to the naming conventions, but it should only happen when we are about to actually open a pack. I don't think one extra malloc will be noticeable there. [1] I'm not entirely sure of all the details, except that we generally assume the packed_git structs never go away. We noted this restriction in the comment added by 6f1e9394e2 (object: fix leaking packfiles when closing object store, 2024-08-08), but it's somewhat vague. At any rate, if you try freeing the structs in close_object_store(), you can observe segfaults all over the test suite. So it might be fixable, but it's not trivial.

2024-10-22grep: disable lookahead on errorRené Scharfe2-10/+29
regexec(3) can fail. E.g. on macOS it fails if it is used with an UTF-8 locale to match a valid regex against a buffer containing invalid UTF-8 characters. git grep has two ways to search for matches in a file: Either it splits its contents into lines and matches them separately, or it matches the whole content and figures out line boundaries later. The latter is done by look_ahead() and it's quicker in the common case where most files don't contain a match. Fall back to line-by-line matching if look_ahead() encounters an regexec(3) error by propagating errors out of patmatch() and bailing out of look_ahead() if there is one. This way we at least can find matches in lines that contain only valid characters. That matches the behavior of grep(1) on macOS. pcre2match() dies if pcre2_jit_match() or pcre2_match() fail, but since we use the flag PCRE2_MATCH_INVALID_UTF it handles invalid UTF-8 characters gracefully. So implement the fall-back only for regexec(3) and leave the PCRE2 matching unchanged.

2024-10-21Documentation/git-update-ref.txt: remove confusing paragraphKristoffer Haugsbakk1-4/+0
This paragraph interrupts the flow of the section by going into detail about what a symbolic ref file is and how it is implemented. It is not clear what the purpose is since symbolic refs were already mentioned prior (“possibly dereferencing the symbolic refs”). Worse, it can confuse the reader about what argument can be a symbolic ref since it just says “it” and not which of the parameters; in turn the reader can be lead to try `<new-oid>` and then get a confusing error since update-ref will just say that it is not a valid SHA1. gitglossary(7) already documents what a symref is, concretely, and quite well at that.

2024-10-21ref-filter: format iteratively with lexicographic refname sortingPatrick Steinhardt1-8/+21
In bd98f9774e (ref-filter.c: filter & format refs in the same callback, 2023-11-14), we have introduced logic into the ref-filter subsystem that determines whether or not we can output references iteratively instead of first collecting all references, post-processing them and printing them once done. This has the advantage that we don't have to store all refs in memory and, when used with e.g. `--count=1`, that we don't have to read all refs in the first place. One restriction we have in place for that is that caller must not ask for sorted refs, because there is no way to sort the refs without first reading them all into an array. So the benefits can only be reaped when explicitly asking for output not to be sorted. But there is one exception here where we _can_ get away with sorting refs while streaming: ref backends sort references returned by their iterators in lexicographic order. So if the following conditions are all true we can do iterative streaming: - There must be at most a single sorting specification, as otherwise we're not using plain lexicographic ordering. - The sorting specification must use the "refname". - The sorting specification must not be using any flags, like case-insensitive sorting. Now the resulting logic does feel quite fragile overall, which makes me a bit uneasy. But after thinking about this for a while I couldn't find any obvious gaps in my reasoning. Furthermore, given that lexicographic sorting order is the default in git-for-each-ref(1), this is likely to benefit a whole lot of usecases out there. The following benchmark executes git-for-each-ref(1) in a crafted repo with 1 million references: Benchmark 1: git for-each-ref (revision = HEAD~) Time (mean ± σ): 6.756 s ± 0.014 s [User: 3.004 s, System: 3.541 s] Range (min … max): 6.738 s … 6.784 s 10 runs Benchmark 2: git for-each-ref (revision = HEAD) Time (mean ± σ): 6.479 s ± 0.017 s [User: 2.858 s, System: 3.422 s] Range (min … max): 6.450 s … 6.519 s 10 runs Summary git for-each-ref (revision = HEAD) 1.04 ± 0.00 times faster than git for-each-ref (revision = HEAD~) The change results in a slight performance improvement, but nothing that would really stand out. Something that cannot be seen in the benchmark though is peak memory usage, which went from 404.5MB to 68.96kB. A more interesting benchmark is printing a single referenence with `--count=1`: Benchmark 1: git for-each-ref --count=1 (revision = HEAD~) Time (mean ± σ): 6.655 s ± 0.018 s [User: 2.865 s, System: 3.576 s] Range (min … max): 6.630 s … 6.680 s 10 runs Benchmark 2: git for-each-ref --count=1 (revision = HEAD) Time (mean ± σ): 8.6 ms ± 1.3 ms [User: 2.3 ms, System: 6.1 ms] Range (min … max): 6.7 ms … 14.4 ms 266 runs Summary git git for-each-ref --count=1 (revision = HEAD) 770.58 ± 116.19 times faster than git for-each-ref --count=1 (revision = HEAD~) Whereas we scaled with the number of references before, we now print the first reference and exit immediately, which provides a massive win.

2024-10-18credential-cache: treat ECONNABORTED like ECONNRESETRamsay Jones1-1/+1
On Cygwin, t0301 fails because "git credential-cache exit" returns a non-zero exit code. What's supposed to happen here is: 1. The client (the "credential-cache" invocation above) connects to a previously-spawned credential-cache--daemon. 2. The client sends an "exit" command to the daemon. 3. The daemon unlinks the socket and then exits, closing the descriptor back to the client. 4. The client sees EOF on the descriptor and exits successfully. That works on most platforms, and even _used_ to work on Cygwin. But that changed in Cygwin's ef95c03522 (Cygwin: select: Fix FD_CLOSE handling, 2021-04-06). After that commit, the client sees a read error with errno set to ECONNABORTED, and it reports the error and dies. It's not entirely clear if this is a Cygwin bug. It seems that calling fclose() on the filehandles pointing to the sockets is sufficient to avoid this error return, even though exiting should in general look the same from the client's perspective. However, we can't just call fclose() here. It's important in step 3 above to unlink the socket before closing the descriptor to avoid the race mentioned by 7d5e9c9849 (credential-cache--daemon: clarify "exit" action semantics, 2016-03-18). The client will exit as soon as it sees the descriptor close, and the daemon may or may not have actually unlinked the socket by then. That makes test code like this: git credential exit && test_path_is_missing .git-credential-cache racy. So we probably _could_ fix this by calling: delete_tempfile(&socket_file); fclose(in); fclose(out); before we exit(). Or by replacing the exit() with a return up the stack, in which case the fclose() happens as we unwind. But in that case we'd still need to call delete_tempfile() here to avoid the race. But simpler still is that we can notice that we already special-case ECONNRESET on the client side, courtesy of 1f180e5eb9 (credential-cache: interpret an ECONNRESET as an EOF, 2017-07-27). We can just do the same thing here (I suspect that prior to the Cygwin commit that introduced this problem, we were really just seeing ECONNRESET instead of ECONNABORTED, so the "new" problem is just the switch of the errno values). There's loads more debugging in this thread: https://lore.kernel.org/git/9dc3e85f-a532-6cff-de11-1dfb2e4bc6b6@ramsayjones.plus.com/ but I've tried to summarize the useful bits in this commit message.

The `stack_filename()` function cannot pass any errors to the caller as it has a `void` return type. Adapt it and its callers such that we can handle errors and start handling allocation failures. There are two interesting edge cases in `reftable_stack_destroy()` and `reftable_addition_close()`. Both of these are trying to tear down their respective structures, and while doing so they try to unlink some of the tables they have been keeping alive. Any earlier attempts to do that may fail on Windows because it keeps us from deleting such tables while they are still open, and thus we re-try on close. It's okay and even expected that this can fail when the tables are still open by another process, so we handle the allocation failures gracefully and just skip over any file whose name we couldn't figure out.

Implement a new `reftable_buf` interface that will replace Git's own `strbuf` interface. This is done due to three reasons: - The `strbuf` interfaces do not handle memory allocation failures and instead causes us to die. This is okay in the context of Git, but is not in the context of the reftable library, which is supposed to be usable by third-party applications. - The `strbuf` interface is quite deeply tied into Git, which makes it hard to use the reftable library as a standalone library. Any dependent would have to carefully extract the relevant parts of it to make things work, which is not all that sensible. - The `strbuf` interface does not use the pluggable allocators that can be set up via `reftable_set_alloc()`. So we have good reasons to use our own type, and the implementation is rather trivial. Implement our own type. Conversion of the reftable library will be handled in subsequent commits.

2024-10-17reftable: stop using `strbuf_addf()`Patrick Steinhardt4-37/+50
We're about to introduce our own `reftable_buf` type to replace `strbuf`. One function we'll have to convert is `strbuf_addf()`, which is used in a handful of places. This function uses `snprintf()` internally, which makes porting it a bit more involved: - It is not available on all platforms. - Some platforms like Windows have broken implementations. So by using `snprintf()` we'd also push the burden on downstream users of the reftable library to make available a properly working version of it. Most callsites of `strbuf_addf()` are trivial to convert to not using it. We do end up using `snprintf()` in our unit tests, but that isn't much of a problem for downstream users of the reftable library. While at it, remove a useless call to `strbuf_reset()` in `t_reftable_stack_auto_compaction_with_locked_tables()`. We don't write to the buffer before this and initialize it with `STRBUF_INIT`, so there is no need to reset anything.

2024-10-17builtin/shortlog: explicitly set hash algo when there is no repoWolfgang Müller2-0/+16
Whilst git-shortlog(1) does not explicitly need any repository information when run without reference to one, it still parses some of its arguments with parse_revision_opt() which assumes that the hash algorithm is set. However, in c8aed5e8da (repository: stop setting SHA1 as the default object hash, 2024-05-07) we stopped setting up a default hash algorithm and instead require commands to set it up explicitly. This was done for most other commands like in ab274909d4 (builtin/diff: explicitly set hash algo when there is no repo, 2024-05-07) but was missed for builtin/shortlog, making git-shortlog(1) segfault outside of a repository when given arguments like --author that trigger a call to parse_revision_opt(). Fix this for now by explicitly setting the hash algorithm to SHA1. Also add a regression test for the segfault.

Further down in this include file, as before, ssize_t is defined as _ssize_t, if needed.

To accommodate for both types the pointer is a `void *`, which we then pass directly to functions without doing a cast. This is fine on most platforms, but it breaks on FreeBSD because `fileno()` is implemented as a macro that tries to directly access the `FILE *` structure.

Windows by default has a restriction in place to only allow paths up to 260 characters. This restriction can nowadays be lifted by setting a registry key, but is still active by default. In t7300 we have one test that exercises the behaviour of git-clean(1) with such long paths. Interestingly enough, this test fails on my system that uses Windows 10 with mingw-w64 installed via MSYS2: instead of observing ENAMETOOLONG, we observe ENOENT. This behaviour is consistent across multiple different environments I have tried. I cannot say why exactly we observe a different error here, but I would not be surprised if this was either dependent on the Windows version, the version of MinGW, the current working directory of Git or any kind of combination of these.

This is done by using "$PWD/gpghome" as value, where "$PWD" is the current test's trash directory.

What we really want in this context is a Unix-style path, which we can get by using `$(pwd)` instead.

2024-10-16t/lib-gitweb: test against the build version of gitwebPatrick Steinhardt1-2/+2
When testing gitweb we set up the CGI script as "gitweb.perl", which is the source file of the build target "gitweb.cgi". This file doesn't have a patched shebang and still contains `++REPLACEMENT++` markers, but things generally work because we replace the configuration with our own test configuration. But this only works as long as "$GIT_BUILD_DIR" actually points to the source tree, because "gitweb.cgi" and "gitweb.perl" happen to sit next to each other. This is not the case though once you have out-of-tree builds like with CMake, where the source and built versions live in different directories. Consequently, "$GIT_BUILD_DIR/gitweb/gitweb.perl" won't exist there. While we could ask build systems with out-of-tree builds to instead set up GITWEB_TEST_INSTALLED, which allows us to override the location of the script, it goes against the spirit of this environment variable. We _don't_ want to test against an installed version, we want to use the version we have just built. Fix this by using "gitweb.cgi" instead. This means that you cannot run test scripts without building that file, but in general we do expect developers to build stuff before they test it anyway.

2024-10-16t/test-lib: wire up NO_ICONV prerequisitePatrick Steinhardt22-106/+229
The iconv library is used by Git to reencode files, commit messages and other things. As such it is a rather integral part, but given that many platforms nowadays use UTF-8 everywhere you can live without support for reencoding in many situations. It is thus optional to build Git with iconv, and some of our platforms wired up in "config.mak.uname" disable it. But while we support building without it, running our test suite with "NO_ICONV=Yes" causes many test failures. Wire up a new test prerequisite ICONV that gets populated via our GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS.

One of the settings we add is the path where the sanitizer should store logs, which can be an arbitrary filesystem path. Naturally, filesystem paths may contain whitespace characters. And while it does seem as if we were quoting the value, we use escaped quotes and consequently split up the value if it does contain spaces. This leads to the following error in t0000 when having a value with whitespaces: .../t/test-lib.sh: eval: line 64: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `"' ++ return 1 error: last command exited with $?=1 not ok 5 - subtest: 3 passing tests The error itself is a bit puzzling at first. The basic problem is that the code sees the leading escaped quote during eval, but because we truncate everything after the space character it doesn't see the trailing escaped quote and thus fails to parse the string. Properly quote the value to fix the issue while using single-quotes to quote the inner value passed to eval. The issue can be reproduced by t0000 with such a path that contains spaces.

2024-10-11BreakingChanges: early adopter optionJunio C Hamano1-1/+20
Discussing the desire to make breaking changes, declaring that breaking changes are made at a certain version boundary, and recording these decisions in this document, are necessary but not sufficient. We need to make sure that we can implement, test, and deploy such impactful changes. Earlier we considered to guard the breaking changes with a run-time check of the `feature.git<version>` configuration to allow brave users and developers to opt into them as early adoptors. But the engineering cost to support such a run-time switch, covering new and disappearing git subcommands and how "git help" would adjust the documentation to the run-time switch, would be unrealistically high to be worth it. Formalize the mechanism based on a compile-time switch to allow early adopters to opt into the breaking change in a version of Git before the planned version for the breaking change.

The current code in run_builtin() passes in a repository to the builtin based on whether cmd_struct's option flag has RUN_SETUP. This is incorrect, however, since some builtins that only have RUN_SETUP_GENTLY can potentially take a repository. setup_git_directory_gently() tells us whether or not a command is being run inside of a repository. Use the output of setup_git_directory_gently() to help determine whether or not there is a repository to pass to the builtin. If not, then we just pass NULL. As part of this patch, we need to modify add to check for a NULL repo before calling repo_git_config(), since add -h can be run outside of a repository.

2024-10-10builtin/gc: fix crash when running `git maintenance start`Patrick Steinhardt2-2/+21
It was reported on the mailing list that running `git maintenance start` immediately segfaults starting with b6c3f8e12c (builtin/maintenance: fix leak in `get_schedule_cmd()`, 2024-09-26). And indeed, this segfault is trivial to reproduce up to a point where one is scratching their head why we didn't catch this regression in our test suite. The root cause of this error is `get_schedule_cmd()`, which does not populate the `out` parameter in all cases anymore starting with the mentioned commit. Callers do assume it to always be populated though and will e.g. call `strvec_split()` on the returned value, which will of course segfault when the variable is uninitialized. So why didn't we catch this trivial regression? The reason is that our tests always set up the "GIT_TEST_MAINT_SCHEDULER" environment variable via "t/test-lib.sh", which allows us to override the scheduler command with a custom one so that we don't accidentally modify the developer's system. But the faulty code where we don't set the `out` parameter will only get hit in case that environment variable is _not_ set, which is never the case when executing our tests. Fix the regression by again unconditionally allocating the value in the `out` parameter, if provided. Add a test that unsets the environment variable to catch future regressions in this area.

2024-10-09doc: clarify <src> in refspec syntaxJunio C Hamano1-3/+4
We explicitly avoid saying "ref <src>" when introducing the source side of a refspec, because it can be a fully-spelled hexadecimal object name, and it also can be a pattern that is not quite a "ref". But we are loose when we introduce <dst> and say "ref <dst>", even though it can also be a pattern. Let's omit "ref" also from the destination side. Clarify that <src> can be a ref, a (limited glob) pattern, or an object name. Even though the very original design of refspec expected that '*' was used only at the end (e.g., "refs/heads/*" was expected, but not "refs/heads/*-wip"), the code and its use evolved to handle a single '*' anywhere in the pattern. Update the text to remove the mention of "the same prefix". Anything that matches the pattern are named by such a (limited glob) pattern in <src>. Also put a bit more stress on the fact that we accept only one '*' in the pattern by saying "one and only one `*`".

2024-10-09t7300-clean.sh: use test_path_* helper functions for error loggingAbraham Samuel Adekunle1-185/+185
This test script uses "test - [def]", but when a test fails because the file passed to it does not exist, it fails silently without an error message. Use test_path_* helper functions, which are designed to give better error messages when their expectations are not met. I have added a mechanical validation that applies the same transformation done in this patch, when the test script is passed to a sed script as shown below. sed -e 's/^\( *\)test -f /\1test_path_is_file /' \ -e 's/^\( *\)test -d /\1test_path_is_dir /' \ -e 's/^\( *\)test -e /\1test_path_exists /' \ -e 's/^\( *\)! test -[edf] /\1test_path_is_missing /' \ -e 's/^\( *\)test ! -[edf] /\1test_path_is_missing /' \ "$1" >foo.sh Reviewers can use the sed script to tranform the original test script and compare the result in foo.sh with the results of applying the patch. You will see an instance of "!(test -e 3)" which was manually replaced with ""test_path_is_missing 3", and everything else should match. Careful and deliberate observation was done to check instances where "test ! - [df] foo" was used in the test script to make sure that the test instances were expecting foo to EITHER be a file or a directory, and NOT a possibility of being both as this would make replacing "test ! -f foo" with "test_path_is_missing foo" unreasonable. In the tests control flow, foo has been created as EITHER a reguar file OR a directory and should NOT exist after "git clean" or "git clean -d", as the case maybe, has been called. This made it reasonable to replace "test ! -[df] foo" with "test_path_is_missing foo".

Add jobs that exercise Git on Windows. Unfortunately, building and especially testing Git on Windows is inherently slower compared to other Unix-like systems, mostly because spawning processes is way slower. We thus use the same layout as we use in GitHub Actions, where we have one build job, and then pass on the resulting build artifacts to ten test jobs that split up the work across each other. Unfortunately, the GitLab runners for Windows machines are embarassingly slow by themselves. So while this strategy leads to around 20 minutes of build time in GitHub Actions, the same pipeline takes around an hour in GitLab CI. Still, having late coverage is certainly better than having none at all. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

Next to some generic variables, we also set up some variables that are specific to the actual platform that the CI operates on, e.g. Linux or macOS. We do not yet support Windows runners on GitLab CI. Unfortunately, those systems do not use the same "CI_JOB_IMAGE" environment variable as both Linux and macOS do. Instead, we can use the "OS" variable, which should have a value of "Windows_NT" on Windows platforms. Handle the combination of "$OS,$CI_JOB_IMAGE" and introduce support for Windows.

2024-10-09ci: create script to set up Git for Windows SDKPatrick Steinhardt2-6/+22
In order to build and test Git, we have to first set up the Git for Windows SDK, which contains various required tools and libraries. The SDK is basically a clone of [1], but that repository is quite large due to all the binaries it contains. We thus use both shallow clones and sparse checkouts to speed up the setup. To handle this complexity we use a GitHub action that is hosted externally at [2]. Unfortunately, this makes it rather hard to reuse the logic for CI platforms other than GitHub Actions. After chatting with Johannes Schindelin we came to the conclusion that it would be nice if the Git for Windows SDK would regularly publish releases that one can easily download and extract, thus moving all of the complexity into that single step. Like this, all that a CI job needs to do is to fetch and extract the resulting archive. This published release comes in the form of a new "ci-artifacts" tag that gets updated regularly [3]. Implement a new script that knows how to fetch and extract that script and convert GitHub Actions to use it.

2024-10-09t7300: work around platform-specific behaviour with long paths on MinGWPatrick Steinhardt1-1/+1
Windows by default has a restriction in place to only allow paths up to 260 characters. This restriction can nowadays be lifted by setting a registry key, but is still active by default. In t7300 we have one test that exercises the behaviour of git-clean(1) with such long paths. Interestingly enough, this test fails on my system that uses Windows 10 with mingw-w64 installed via MSYS2: instead of observing ENAMETOOLONG, we observe ENOENT. This behaviour is consistent across multiple different environments I have tried. I cannot say why exactly we observe a different error here, but I would not be surprised if this was either dependent on the Windows version, the version of MinGW, the current working directory of Git or any kind of combination of these. Work around the issue by handling both errors. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2024-10-09rebase-merges: try and use branch names as labelsNicolas Guichard3-16/+25
When interactively rebasing merge commits, the commit message is parsed to extract a probably meaningful label name. For instance if the merge commit is “Merge branch 'feature0'”, then the rebase script will have thes lines: ``` label feature0 merge -C $sha feature0 # “Merge branch 'feature0' ``` This heuristic fails in the case of octopus merges or when the merge commit message is actually unrelated to the parent commits. An example that combines both is: ``` *---. 967bfa4 (HEAD -> integration) Integration |\ \ \ | | | * 2135be1 (feature2, feat2) Feature 2 | |_|/ |/| | | | * c88b01a Feature 1 | |/ |/| | * 75f3139 (feat0) Feature 0 |/ * 25c86d0 (main) Initial commit ``` yields the labels Integration, Integration-2 and Integration-3. Fix this by using a branch name for each merge commit's parent that is the tip of at least one branch, and falling back to a label derived from the merge commit message otherwise. In the example above, the labels become feat0, Integration and feature2.

There's a racy hang in fsmonitor on macOS that we sometimes see in CI. When we serve a client, what's supposed to happen is: 1. The client thread calls with_lock__wait_for_cookie() in which we create a cookie file and then wait for a pthread_cond event 2. The filesystem event listener sees the cookie file creation, does some internal book-keeping, and then triggers the pthread_cond. But there's a problem: we start the listener that accepts client threads before we start the fs event thread. So it's possible for us to accept a client which creates the cookie file and starts waiting before the fs event thread is initialized, and we miss those filesystem events entirely. That leaves the client thread hanging forever. In CI, the symptom is that t9210 (which is testing scalar, which always enables fsmonitor under the hood) may hang forever in "scalar clone". It is waiting on "git fetch" which is waiting on the fsmonitor daemon. The race happens more frequently under load, but you can trigger it predictably with a sleep like this, which delays the start of the fs event thread: --- a/compat/fsmonitor/fsm-listen-darwin.c +++ b/compat/fsmonitor/fsm-listen-darwin.c @@ -510,6 +510,7 @@ void fsm_listen__loop(struct fsmonitor_daemon_state *state) FSEventStreamSetDispatchQueue(data->stream, data->dq); data->stream_scheduled = 1; + sleep(1); if (!FSEventStreamStart(data->stream)) { error(_("Failed to start the FSEventStream")); goto force_error_stop_without_loop; One solution might be to reverse the order of initialization: start the fs event thread before we start the thread listening for clients. But the fsmonitor code explicitly does it in the opposite direction. The fs event thread wants to refer to the ipc_server_data struct, so we need it to be initialized first. A further complication is that we need a signal from the fs event thread that it is actually ready and listening. And those details happen within backend-specific fsmonitor code, whereas the initialization is in the shared code. So instead, let's use the ipc_server init/start split added in the previous commit. The generic fsmonitor code will init the ipc_server but _not_ start it, leaving that to the backend specific code, which now needs to call ipc_server_start_async() at the right time. For macOS, that is right after we start the FSEventStream that you can see in the diff above. It's not clear to me if Windows suffers from the same problem (and we simply don't trigger it in CI), or if it is immune. Regardless, the obvious place to start accepting clients there is right after we've established the ReadDirectoryChanges watch. This makes the hangs go away in our macOS CI environment, even when compiled with the sleep() above.

2024-10-08simple-ipc: split async server initialization and runningJeff King5-18/+88
To start an async ipc server, you call ipc_server_run_async(). That initializes the ipc_server_data object, and starts all of the threads running, which may immediately start serving clients. This can create some awkward timing problems, though. In the fsmonitor daemon (the sole user of the simple-ipc system), we want to create the ipc server early in the process, which means we may start serving clients before the rest of the daemon is fully initialized. To solve this, let's break run_async() into two parts: an initialization which allocates all data and spawns the threads (without letting them run), and a start function which actually lets them begin work. Since we have two simple-ipc implementations, we have to handle this twice: - in ipc-unix-socket.c, we have a central listener thread which hands connections off to worker threads using a work_available mutex. We can hold that mutex after init, and release it when we're ready to start. We do need an extra "started" flag so that we know whether the main thread is holding the mutex or not (e.g., if we prematurely stop the server, we want to make sure all of the worker threads are released to hear about the shutdown). - in ipc-win32.c, we don't have a central mutex. So we'll introduce a new startup_barrier mutex, which we'll similarly hold until we're ready to let the threads proceed. We again need a "started" flag here to make sure that we release the barrier mutex when shutting down, so that the sub-threads can proceed to the finish. I've renamed the run_async() function to init_async() to make sure we catch all callers, since they'll now need to call the matching start_async(). We could leave run_async() as a wrapper that does both, but there's not much point. There are only two callers, one of which is fsmonitor, which will want to actually do work between the two calls. And the other is just a test-tool wrapper. For now I've added the start_async() calls in fsmonitor where they would otherwise have happened, so there should be no behavior change with this patch.

2024-10-08worktree: add test for path handling in linked worktreesCaleb White1-0/+19
A failure scenario reported in an earlier patch series[1] that several `git worktree` subcommands failed or misbehaved when invoked from within linked worktrees that used relative paths. This adds a test that executes a `worktree prune` command inside both an internally and an externally linked worktree and asserts that the other worktree was not pruned.

2024-10-08worktree: link worktrees with relative pathsCaleb White5-51/+223
Git currently stores absolute paths to both the main repository and linked worktrees. However, this causes problems when moving repositories or working in containerized environments where absolute paths differ between systems. The worktree links break, and users are required to manually execute `worktree repair` to repair them, leading to workflow disruptions. Additionally, mapping repositories inside of containerized environments renders the repository unusable inside the containers, and this is not repairable as repairing the worktrees inside the containers will result in them being broken outside the containers. To address this, this patch makes Git always write relative paths when linking worktrees. Relative paths increase the resilience of the worktree links across various systems and environments, particularly when the worktrees are self-contained inside the main repository (such as when using a bare repository with worktrees). This improves portability, workflow efficiency, and reduces overall breakages. Although Git now writes relative paths, existing repositories with absolute paths are still supported. There are no breaking changes to workflows based on absolute paths, ensuring backward compatibility. At a low level, the changes involve modifying functions in `worktree.c` and `builtin/worktree.c` to use `relative_path()` when writing the worktree’s `.git` file and the main repository’s `gitdir` reference. Instead of hardcoding absolute paths, Git now computes the relative path between the worktree and the repository, ensuring that these links are portable. Locations where these respective file are read have also been updated to properly handle both absolute and relative paths. Generally, relative paths are always resolved into absolute paths before any operations or comparisons are performed. Additionally, `repair_worktrees_after_gitdir_move()` has been introduced to address the case where both the `<worktree>/.git` and `<repo>/worktrees/<id>/gitdir` links are broken after the gitdir is moved (such as during a re-initialization). This function repairs both sides of the worktree link using the old gitdir path to reestablish the correct paths after a move. The `worktree.path` struct member has also been updated to always store the absolute path of a worktree. This ensures that worktree consumers never have to worry about trying to resolve the absolute path themselves.

It seemed inefficient to convert from `strbuf` to `char*` and back to `strbuf` again.

2024-10-08fetch: respect --server-option when fetching multiple remotesXing Xin2-0/+12
Fix an issue where server options specified via the command line (`--server-option` or `-o`) were not sent when fetching from multiple remotes using Git protocol v2. To reproduce the issue with a repository containing multiple remotes: GIT_TRACE_PACKET=1 git -c protocol.version=2 fetch --server-option=demo --all Observe that no server options are sent to any remote. The root cause was identified in `builtin/fetch.c:fetch_multiple`, which is invoked when fetching from more than one remote. This function forks a `git-fetch` subprocess for each remote but did not include the specified server options in the subprocess arguments. This commit ensures that command-line specified server options are properly passed to each subprocess. Relevant tests have been added.

This helps initialize the `server_options` in `transport.h:transport` if no server options are set for the transport (typically via `--server-option` or `-o`). While another potential place to incorporate server options from the remote is in `transport.c:transport_get`, setting server options for a transport using a protocol other than v2 could lead to unexpected errors (see `transport.c:die_if_server_options`).

2024-10-08remote: introduce remote.<name>.serverOption configurationXing Xin3-0/+19
Currently, server options for Git protocol v2 can only be specified via the command line option "--server-option" or "-o", which is inconvenient when users want to specify a list of default options to send. Therefore, we are introducing a new configuration to hold a list of default server options, akin to the `push.pushOption` configuration for push options. Initially, I named the new configuration `fetch.serverOption` to align with `push.pushOption`. However, after discussing with Patrick, it was renamed to `remote.<name>.serverOption` as suggested, because: 1. Server options are designed to be server-specific, making it more logical to use a per-remote configuration. 2. Using "fetch." prefixed configurations in git-clone or git-ls-remote seems out of place and inconsistent in design. The parsing logic for `remote.<name>.serverOption` also relies on `transport.c:parse_transport_option`, similar to `push.pushOption`, and they follow the same priority design: 1. Server options set in lower-priority configuration files (e.g., /etc/gitconfig or $HOME/.gitconfig) can be overridden or unset in more specific repository configurations using an empty string. 2. Command-line specified server options take precedence over those from the configuration. Server options from configuration are stored to the corresponding `remote.h:remote` as a new field `server_options`. The field will be utilized in the subsequent commit to help initialize the `server_options` of `transport.h:transport`. And documentation have been updated accordingly.

2024-10-07cache-tree: detect mismatching number of index entriesPatrick Steinhardt2-6/+11
In t4058 we have some tests that exercise git-read-tree(1) when used with a tree that contains duplicate entries. While the expectation is that we fail, we ideally should fail gracefully without a segfault. But that is not the case: we never check that the number of entries in the cache-tree is less than or equal to the number of entries in the index. This can lead to an out-of-bounds read as we unconditionally access `istate->cache[idx]`, where `idx` is controlled by the number of cache-tree entries and the current position therein. The result is a segfault. Fix this segfault by adding a sanity check for the number of index entries before dereferencing them.

2024-10-07cache-tree: refactor verification to return error codesPatrick Steinhardt4-35/+79
The function `cache_tree_verify()` will `BUG()` whenever it finds that the cache-tree extension of the index is corrupt. The function is thus inherently untestable because the resulting call to `abort()` will be detected by our testing framework and labelled an error. And rightfully so: it shouldn't ever be possible to hit bugs, as they should indicate a programming error rather than corruption of on-disk state. Refactor the function to instead return error codes. This also ensures that the function can be used e.g. by git-fsck(1) without the whole process dying. Furthermore, this refactoring plugs some memory leaks when returning early by creating a common exit path.
