hooks: fix "invoked hook" regression in a8cc5943338
Fix a regression in a8cc5943338 (hooks: fix an obscure TOCTOU "did we just run a hook?" race, 2022-03-07): The "invoked_hook" variable passed to run_commit_hook() wasn't passed forward to run_hooks_opt(), as push_to_checkout() in that commit correctly did. Whether we ran the code contingent on having run the hook or not was thus undefined, but in practice on most (all?) modern platforms we'd have run it (almost?) all the time, since stack variables will get initialized to some random value, which most of the time isn't "0". This bug was revealed by running e.g. "t5537-fetch-shallow.sh" with the --valgrind option. Unfortunately running the whole test suite with --valgrind is really slow, so we didn't have a CI job that spotted this. The --valgrind output was: ==31275== Conditional jump or move depends on uninitialised value(s) ==31275== at 0x43C63F: prepare_to_commit (commit.c:1058) ==31275== by 0x4396A5: cmd_commit (commit.c:1722) ==31275== by 0x407C8A: run_builtin (git.c:465) ==31275== by 0x406741: handle_builtin (git.c:718) ==31275== by 0x407665: run_argv (git.c:785) ==31275== by 0x406500: cmd_main (git.c:916) ==31275== by 0x510839: main (common-main.c:56) ==31275== Uninitialised value was created by a stack allocation ==31275== at 0x43B344: prepare_to_commit (commit.c:719) Reported-by: Jonathan Tan <jonathantanmy@google.com> Signed-off-by: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <avarab@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
