In everything_local(), we used to assign the current ref's value
found in ref->old_sha1 to ref->new_sha1 when we already have all the
necessary objects to complete the history leading to that
commit. This copying was broken at 49bb805e (Do not ask for
objects known to be complete., 2005-10-19) and ever since we
instead stuffed a random bytes in ref->new_sha1 here. No
code complained or failed due to this breakage.
It turns out that no code path that comes after this
assignment even looks at ref->new_sha1 at all.
- The only caller of everything_local(), do_fetch_pack(),
returns this list of refs, whose element has bogus
new_sha1 values, to its caller. It does not look at the
elements itself, but does pass them to find_common, which
looks only at the name and old_sha1 fields.
- The only caller of do_fetch_pack(), fetch_pack(), returns this
list to its caller. It does not look at the elements nor act on
them.
- One of the two callers of fetch_pack() is cmd_fetch_pack(), the
top-level that implements "git fetch-pack". The only thing it
looks at in the elements of the returned ref list is the old_sha1
and name fields.
- The other caller of fetch_pack() is fetch_refs_via_pack() in the
transport layer, which is a helper that implements "git fetch".
It only cares about whether the returned list is empty (i.e.
failed to fetch anything).
Just drop the bogus assignment, that is not even necessary. The
remote-tracking refs are updated based on a different list and not
using the ref list being manipulated by this code path; the caller
do_fetch_pack() created a copy of that real ref list and passed the
copy down to this function, and modifying the elements here does not
affect anything.

When fetch_refs_via_pack calls fetch_pack(), we pass a
list of refs to fetch, and the function returns either a
copy of that list, with the fetched items filled in, or
NULL. We check the return value to see whether the fetch was
successful, but do not otherwise look at the copy, and
simply leak it at the end of the function.

If the server supports allow_tip_sha1_in_want, we add any
unmatched raw-sha1 entries in our "sought" list of refs to
the list of refs we will ask the other side for. We do so by
inserting the original "struct ref" directly into our list,
rather than making a copy. This has several problems.
The most minor problem is that one cannot ever free the
resulting list; it contains structs that are copies of the
remote refs (made earlier by fetch_pack) along with sought
refs that are referenced elsewhere.
But more importantly that we set the ref->next pointer to
NULL, chopping off the remainder of any existing list that
the ref was a part of. We get the set of "sought" refs in
an array rather than a linked list, but that array is often
in turn generated from a list. The test modification in
t5516 demonstrates this. Rather than fetching just an exact
sha1, we fetch that sha1 plus another ref:
- we build a linked list of refs to fetch when do_fetch
calls get_ref_map; the exact sha1 is first, followed by
the named ref ("refs/heads/extra" in this case).
- we pass that linked list to transport_fetch_ref, which
squashes it into an array of pointers
- that array goes to fetch_pack, which calls filter_ref.
There we generate the want list from a mix of what the
remote side has advertised, and the "sought" entry for
the exact sha1. We set the sought entry's "next" pointer
to NULL.
- after we return from transport_fetch_refs, we then try
to update the refs by following the linked list. But our
list is now truncated, and we do not update
refs/heads/extra at all.
We can fix this by making a copy of the ref. There's nothing
that fetch_pack does to it that must be reflected in the
original "sought" list (and indeed, if that were the case we
would have a serious bug, because it is only exact-sha1
entries which are treated this way).

If the server supports allow_tip_sha1_in_want, then
fetch-pack's filter_refs function tries to check whether a
ref is a request for a straight sha1 by running:
if (get_sha1_hex(ref->name, ref->old_sha1))
...
I.e., we are using get_sha1_hex to ask "is this ref name a
sha1?". If it is true, then the contents of ref->old_sha1
will end up unchanged. But if it is false, then get_sha1_hex
makes no guarantees about what it has written. With a ref
name like "abcdefoo", we would overwrite 3 bytes of
ref->old_sha1 before realizing that it was not a sha1.
This is likely not a problem in practice, as anything in
refs->name (besides a sha1) will start with "refs/", meaning
that we would notice on the first character that there is a
problem. Still, we are making assumptions about the state
left in the output when get_sha1_hex returns an error (e.g.,
it could start from the end of the string, or error check
the values only once they were placed in the output). It's
better to be defensive.
We could just check that we have exactly 40 characters of
sha1. But let's be even more careful and make sure that we
have a 40-char hex refname that matches what is in old_sha1.
This is perhaps overly defensive, but spells out our
assumptions clearly.

Our is_hfs_dotgit function relies on the hackily-implemented
next_hfs_char to give us the next character that an HFS+
filename comparison would look at. It's hacky because it
doesn't implement the full case-folding table of HFS+; it
gives us just enough to see if the path matches ".git".
At the end of next_hfs_char, we use tolower() to convert our
32-bit code point to lowercase. Our tolower() implementation
only takes an 8-bit char, though; it throws away the upper
24 bits. This means we can't have any false negatives for
is_hfs_dotgit. We only care about matching 7-bit ASCII
characters in ".git", and we will correctly process 'G' or
'g'.
However, we _can_ have false positives. Because we throw
away the upper bits, code point \u{0147} (for example) will
look like 'G' and get downcased to 'g'. It's not known
whether a sequence of code points whose truncation ends up
as ".git" is meaningful in any language, but it does not
hurt to be more accurate here. We can just pass out the full
32-bit code point, and compare it manually to the upper and
lowercase characters we care about.

Now that the index can block pathnames that can be mistaken
to mean ".git" on NTFS and FAT32, it would be helpful for
fsck to notice such problematic paths. This lets servers
which use receive.fsckObjects block them before the damage
spreads.
Note that the fsck check is always on, even for systems
without core.protectNTFS set. This is technically more
restrictive than we need to be, as a set of users on ext4
could happily use these odd filenames without caring about
NTFS.
However, on balance, it's helpful for all servers to block
these (because the paths can be used for mischief, and
servers which bother to fsck would want to stop the spread
whether they are on NTFS themselves or not), and hardly
anybody will be affected (because the blocked names are
variants of .git or git~1, meaning mischief is almost
certainly what the tree author had in mind).
Ideally these would be controlled by a separate
"fsck.protectNTFS" flag. However, it would be much nicer to
be able to enable/disable _any_ fsck flag individually, and
any scheme we choose should match such a system. Given the
likelihood of anybody using such a path in practice, it is
not unreasonable to wait until such a system materializes.

The point of disallowing ".git" in the index is that we
would never want to accidentally overwrite files in the
repository directory. But this means we need to respect the
filesystem's idea of when two paths are equal. The prior
commit added a helper to make such a comparison for NTFS
and FAT32; let's use it in verify_path().
We make this check optional for two reasons:
1. It restricts the set of allowable filenames, which is
unnecessary for people who are not on NTFS nor FAT32.
In practice this probably doesn't matter, though, as
the restricted names are rather obscure and almost
certainly would never come up in practice.
2. It has a minor performance penalty for every path we
insert into the index.
This patch ties the check to the core.protectNTFS config
option. Though this is expected to be most useful on Windows,
we allow it to be set everywhere, as NTFS may be mounted on
other platforms. The variable does default to on for Windows,
though.

We do not allow paths with a ".git" component to be added to
the index, as that would mean repository contents could
overwrite our repository files. However, asking "is this
path the same as .git" is not as simple as strcmp() on some
filesystems.
On NTFS (and FAT32), there exist so-called "short names" for
backwards-compatibility: 8.3 compliant names that refer to the same files
as their long names. As ".git" is not an 8.3 compliant name, a short name
is generated automatically, typically "git~1".
Depending on the Windows version, any combination of trailing spaces and
periods are ignored, too, so that both "git~1." and ".git." still refer
to the Git directory. The reason is that 8.3 stores file names shorter
than 8 characters with trailing spaces. So literally, it does not matter
for the short name whether it is padded with spaces or whether it is
shorter than 8 characters, it is considered to be the exact same.
The period is the separator between file name and file extension, and
again, an empty extension consists just of spaces in 8.3 format. So
technically, we would need only take care of the equivalent of this
regex:
(\.git {0,4}|git~1 {0,3})\. {0,3}
However, there are indications that at least some Windows versions might
be more lenient and accept arbitrary combinations of trailing spaces and
periods and strip them out. So we're playing it real safe here. Besides,
there can be little doubt about the intention behind using file names
matching even the more lenient pattern specified above, therefore we
should be fine with disallowing such patterns.
Extra care is taken to catch names such as '.\\.git\\booh' because the
backslash is marked as a directory separator only on Windows, and we want
to use this new helper function also in fsck on other platforms.
A big thank you goes to Ed Thomson and an unnamed Microsoft engineer for
the detailed analysis performed to come up with the corresponding fixes
for libgit2.
This commit adds a function to detect whether a given file name can refer
to the Git directory by mistake.

path the same as .git" is not as simple as strcmp() on some
filesystems.
HFS+'s case-folding does more than just fold uppercase into
lowercase (which we already handle with strcasecmp). It may
also skip past certain "ignored" Unicode code points, so
that (for example) ".gi\u200ct" is mapped ot ".git".
The full list of folds can be found in the tables at:
https://www.opensource.apple.com/source/xnu/xnu-1504.15.3/bsd/hfs/hfscommon/Unicode/UCStringCompareData.h
Implementing a full "is this path the same as that path"
comparison would require us importing the whole set of
tables. However, what we want to do is much simpler: we
only care about checking ".git". We know that 'G' is the
only thing that folds to 'g', and so on, so we really only
need to deal with the set of ignored code points, which is
much smaller.

We check that fsck notices and complains about confusing
paths in trees. However, there are a few shortcomings:
1. We check only for these paths as file entries, not as
intermediate paths (so ".git" and not ".git/foo").
2. We check "." and ".." together, so it is possible that
we notice only one and not the other.
3. We repeat a lot of boilerplate.
Let's use some loops to be more thorough in our testing, and
still end up with shorter code.

We do not allow ".git" to enter into the index as a path
component, because checking out the result to the working
tree may causes confusion for subsequent git commands.
However, on case-insensitive file systems, ".Git" or ".GIT"
is the same. We should catch and prevent those, too.
Note that technically we could allow this for repos on
case-sensitive filesystems. But there's not much point. It's
unlikely that anybody cares, and it creates a repository
that is unexpectedly non-portable to other systems.
