In addition to the regular trace information produced by
CURLOPT_VERBOSE, recent curl versions can enable or disable tracing of
specific subsystems using a call to curl_global_trace().
This level of detail may or may not be useful for us in Git as mere
users of libcurl, but there's one case where we need it for a test. In
t5564, we set up a socks proxy, access it with GIT_TRACE_CURL set, and
expect to find socks-related messages in the output. This test is broken
in the release candidates for libcurl 8.16, as those socks messages are
no longer produced in the trace.
The problem bisects to curl's commit ab5e0bfddc (pytest: add SOCKS tests
and scoring, 2025-07-21). There the socks messages were moved from
generic infof() messages to the component-specific CURL_TRC_CF() system.
And so we do not see them by default, but only if "socks" is enabled as
a logging component.
Teach Git's http code to accept a component list from the
environment and pass it into curl_global_trace(). We can then use
that in the test to enable the correct component.
It should be safe to do so unconditionally. In older versions of curl
which don't support this call, setting the environment variable is a
noop. Likewise, any versions of curl which don't recognize the "socks"
component should silently ignore it. The manpage for curl_global_trace()
says this:
The config string is a list of comma-separated component names. Names
are case-insensitive and unknown names are ignored. The special name
"all" applies to all components. Names may be prefixed with '+' or '-'
to enable or disable detailed logging for a component.
The list of component names is not part of curl's public API. Names may
be added or disappear in future versions of libcurl. Since unknown
names are silently ignored, outdated log configurations does not cause
errors when upgrading libcurl. Given that, some names can be expected
to be fairly stable and are listed below for easy reference.
So this should let us make the test work on all versions without
worrying about confusing older (or newer) versions. For the same reason,
I've opted not to document this interface. This is deep internal voodoo
for which we can make no promises to users. In fact, I was tempted to
simply hard-code "socks" to let our test pass and not expose anything.
But I suspect a little run-time flexibility may come in handy in the
future when debugging or dealing with similar logging issues.
I also considered just putting "all" into such a hard-coded default. But
if you try it, you will see that many of the components are quite
verbose and likely not interesting. They would clutter up our trace
output if we enabled them by default.

curl supports a few options to control when and how often it should
instruct the OS to send TCP keepalives, like KEEPIDLE, KEEPINTVL, and
KEEPCNT. Until this point, there hasn't been a way for users to change
what values are used for these options, forcing them to rely on curl's
defaults.
But we do unconditionally enable TCP keepalives without giving users an
ability to tweak any fine-grained parameters. Ordinarily this isn't a
problem, particularly for users that have fast-enough connections,
and/or are talking to a server that has generous or nonexistent
thresholds for killing a connection it hasn't heard from in a while.
But it can present a problem when one or both of those assumptions fail.
For instance, I can reliably get an in-progress clone to be killed from
the remote end when cloning from some forges while using trickle to
limit my clone's bandwidth.
For those users and others who wish to more finely tune the OS's
keepalive behavior, expose configuration and environment variables which
allow setting curl's KEEPIDLE, KEEPINTVL, and KEEPCNT options.
Note that while KEEPIDLE and KEEPINTVL were added in curl 7.25.0,
KEEPCNT was added much more recently in curl 8.9.0. Per f7c094060c
(git-curl-compat: remove check for curl 7.25.0, 2024-10-23), both
KEEPIDLE and KEEPINTVL are set unconditionally. But since we may be
compiled with a curl that isn't as new as 8.9.0, only set KEEPCNT when
we have CURLOPT_TCP_KEEPCNT to begin with.

As of curl 7.66.0, we don't need to manually specify a "chunked"
Transfer-Encoding header. Instead, modern curl deduces the need for it
in a POST that has a POSTFIELDSIZE of -1 and uses READFUNCTION rather
than POSTFIELDS.
That version is recent enough that we can't just drop the header; we
need to do so conditionally. Since it's only a single line, it seems
like the simplest thing would just be to keep setting it unconditionally
(after all, the #ifdefs are much longer than the actual code). But
there's another wrinkle: HTTP/2.
Curl may choose to use HTTP/2 under the hood if the server supports it.
And in that protocol, we do not use the chunked encoding for streaming
at all. Most versions of curl handle this just fine by recognizing and
removing the header. But there's a regression in curl 8.7.0 and 8.7.1
where it doesn't, and large requests over HTTP/2 are broken (which t5559
notices). That regression has since been fixed upstream, but not yet
released.
Make the setting of this header conditional, which will let Git work
even with those buggy curl versions. And as a bonus, it serves as a
reminder that we can eventually clean up the code as we bump the
supported curl versions.

The CURLOPT_PROTOCOLS (and matching CURLOPT_REDIR_PROTOCOLS) flag was
deprecated in curl 7.85.0, and using it generate compiler warnings as of
curl 7.87.0. The path forward is to use CURLOPT_PROTOCOLS_STR, but we
can't just do so unilaterally, as it was only introduced less than a
year ago in 7.85.0.
Until that version becomes ubiquitous, we have to either disable the
deprecation warning or conditionally use the "STR" variant on newer
versions of libcurl. This patch switches to the new variant, which is
nice for two reasons:
- we don't have to worry that silencing curl's deprecation warnings
might cause us to miss other more useful ones
- we'd eventually want to move to the new variant anyway, so this gets
us set up (albeit with some extra ugly boilerplate for the
conditional)
There are a lot of ways to split up the two cases. One way would be to
abstract the storage type (strbuf versus a long), how to append
(strbuf_addstr vs bitwise OR), how to initialize, which CURLOPT to use,
and so on. But the resulting code looks pretty magical:
GIT_CURL_PROTOCOL_TYPE allowed = GIT_CURL_PROTOCOL_TYPE_INIT;
if (...http is allowed...)
GIT_CURL_PROTOCOL_APPEND(&allowed, "http", CURLOPT_HTTP);
and you end up with more "#define GIT_CURL_PROTOCOL_TYPE" macros than
actual code.
On the other end of the spectrum, we could just implement two separate
functions, one that handles a string list and one that handles bits. But
then we end up repeating our list of protocols (http, https, ftp, ftp).
This patch takes the middle ground. The run-time code is always there to
handle both types, and we just choose which one to feed to curl.

Change the error shown when a http.pinnedPubKey doesn't match to point
the http.pinnedPubKey variable added in aeff8a61216 (http: implement
public key pinning, 2016-02-15), e.g.:
git -c http.pinnedPubKey=sha256/someNonMatchingKey ls-remote https://github.com/git/git.git
fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/git/git.git/' with http.pinnedPubkey configuration: SSL: public key does not match pinned public key!
Before this we'd emit the exact same thing without the " with
http.pinnedPubkey configuration". The advantage of doing this is that
we're going to get a translated message (everything after the ":" is
hardcoded in English in libcurl), and we've got a reference to the
git-specific configuration variable that's causing the error.
Unfortunately we can't test this easily, as there are no tests that
require https:// in the test suite, and t/lib-httpd.sh doesn't know
how to set up such tests. See [1] for the start of a discussion about
what it would take to have divergent "t/lib-httpd/apache.conf" test
setups. #leftoverbits

Use the new git-curl-compat.h header to define CURL_SOCKOPT_OK to its
known value if we're on an older curl version that doesn't have it. It
was hardcoded in http.c in a15d069a198 (http: enable keepalive on TCP
sockets, 2013-10-12).

As discussed in 644de29e220 (http: drop support for curl < 7.19.4,
2021-07-30) checking against LIBCURL_VERSION_NUM isn't as reliable as
checking specific symbols present in curl, as some distros have been
known to backport features.
However, while some of the curl_easy_setopt() arguments we rely on are
macros, others are enum, and we can't assume that those that are
macros won't change into enums in the future.
So we're still going to have to check LIBCURL_VERSION_NUM, but by
doing that in one central place and using a macro definition of our
own, anyone who's backporting features can define it themselves, and
thus have access to more modern curl features that they backported,
even if they didn't bump the LIBCURL_VERSION_NUM.
More importantly, as shown in a preceding commit doing these version
checks makes for hard to read and possibly buggy code, as shown by the
bug fixed there where we were conflating base 10 for base 16 when
comparing the version.
By doing them all in one place we'll hopefully reduce the chances of
such future mistakes, furthermore it now becomes easier to see at a
glance what the oldest supported version is, which makes it easier to
reason about any future deprecation similar to the recent
e48a623dea0 (Merge branch 'ab/http-drop-old-curl', 2021-08-24).
