We never do any error checks, and so never return anything
but "0". Let's just drop this to simplify the code.

The ustar format represents timestamps as seconds since the
epoch, but only has room to store 11 octal digits. To
express anything larger, we need to use an extended header.
This is exactly the same case we fixed for the size field in
the previous commit, and the solution here follows the same
pattern.
This is even mentioned as an issue in f2f0267 (archive-tar:
use xsnprintf for trivial formatting, 2015-09-24), but since
it only affected things far in the future, it wasn't deemed
worth dealing with. But note that my calculations claiming
thousands of years were off there; because our xsnprintf
produces a NUL byte, we only have until the year 2242 to fix
this.
Given that this is just around the corner (geologically
speaking, anyway), and because it's easy to fix, let's just
make it work. Unlike the previous fix for "size", where we
had to write an individual extended header for each file, we
can write one global header (since we have only one mtime
for the whole archive).
There's a slight bit of trickiness there. We may already be
writing a global header with a "comment" field for the
commit sha1. So we need to write our new field into the same
header. To do this, we push the decision of whether to write
such a header down into write_global_extended_header(),
which will now assemble the header as it sees fit, and will
return early if we have nothing to write (in practice, we'll
only have a large mtime if it comes from a commit, but this
makes it also work if you set your system clock ahead such
that time() returns a huge value).
Note that we don't (and never did) handle negative
timestamps (i.e., before 1970). This would probably not be
too hard to support in the same way, but since git does not
support negative timestamps at all, I didn't bother here.
After writing the extended header, we munge the timestamp in
the ustar headers to the maximum-allowable size. This is
wrong, but it's the least-wrong thing we can provide to a
tar implementation that doesn't understand pax headers (it's
also what GNU tar does).

The ustar format has a fixed-length field for the size of
each file entry which is supposed to contain up to 11 bytes
of octal-formatted data plus a NUL or space terminator.
These means that the largest size we can represent is
077777777777, or 1 byte short of 8GB. The correct solution
for a larger file, according to POSIX.1-2001, is to add an
extended pax header, similar to how we handle long
filenames. This patch does that, and writes zero for the
size field in the ustar header (the last bit is not
mentioned by POSIX, but it matches how GNU tar behaves with
--format=pax).
This should be a strict improvement over the current
behavior, which is to die in xsnprintf with a "BUG".
However, there's some interesting history here.
Prior to f2f0267 (archive-tar: use xsnprintf for trivial
formatting, 2015-09-24), we silently overflowed the "size"
field. The extra bytes ended up in the "mtime" field of the
header, which was then immediately written itself,
overwriting our extra bytes. What that means depends on how
many bytes we wrote.
If the size was 64GB or greater, then we actually overflowed
digits into the mtime field, meaning our value was
effectively right-shifted by those lost octal digits. And
this patch is again a strict improvement over that.
But if the size was between 8GB and 64GB, then our 12-byte
field held all of the actual digits, and only our NUL
terminator overflowed. According to POSIX, there should be a
NUL or space at the end of the field. However, GNU tar seems
to be lenient here, and will correctly parse a size up 64GB
(minus one) from the field. So sizes in this range might
have just worked, depending on the implementation reading
the tarfile.
This patch is mostly still an improvement there, as the 8GB
limit is specifically mentioned in POSIX as the correct
limit. But it's possible that it could be a regression
(versus the pre-f2f0267 state) if all of the following are
true:
1. You have a file between 8GB and 64GB.
2. Your tar implementation _doesn't_ know about pax
extended headers.
3. Your tar implementation _does_ parse 12-byte sizes from
the ustar header without a delimiter.
It's probably not worth worrying about such an obscure set
of conditions, but I'm documenting it here just in case.

The ustar format only has room for 11 (or 12, depending on
some implementations) octal digits for the size and mtime of
each file. For values larger than this, we have to add pax
extended headers to specify the real data, and git does not
yet know how to do so.
Before fixing that, let's start off with some test
infrastructure, as designing portable and efficient tests
for this is non-trivial.
We want to use the system tar to check our output (because
what we really care about is interoperability), but we can't
rely on it:
1. being able to read pax headers
2. being able to handle huge sizes or mtimes
3. supporting a "t" format we can parse
So as a prerequisite, we can feed the system tar a reference
tarball to make sure it can handle these features. The
reference tar here was created with:
dd if=/dev/zero seek=64G bs=1 count=1 of=huge
touch -d @68719476737 huge
tar cf - --format=pax |
head -c 2048
using GNU tar. Note that this is not a complete tarfile, but
it's enough to contain the headers we want to examine.
Likewise, we need to convince git that it has a 64GB blob to
output. Running "git add" on that 64GB file takes many
minutes of CPU, and even compressed, the result is 64MB. So
again, I pre-generated that loose object, and then took only
the first 2k of it. That should be enough to generate 2MB of
data before hitting an inflate error, which is plenty for us
to generate the tar header (and then die of SIGPIPE while
streaming the rest out).
The tests are split so that we test as much as we can even
with an uncooperative system tar. This actually catches the
current breakage (which is that we die("BUG") trying to
write the ustar header) on every system, and then on systems
where we can, we go farther and actually verify the result.

It is sometimes useful to be able to read exactly N bytes from a
pipe. Doing this portably turns out to be surprisingly difficult
in shell scripts.
We want a solution that:
- is portable
- never reads more than N bytes due to buffering (which
would mean those bytes are not available to the next
program to read from the same pipe)
- handles partial reads by looping until N bytes are read
(or we see EOF)
- is resilient to stray signals giving us EINTR while
trying to read (even though we don't send them, things
like SIGWINCH could cause apparently-random failures)
Some possible solutions are:
- "head -c" is not portable, and implementations may
buffer (though GNU head does not)
- "read -N" is a bash-ism, and thus not portable
- "dd bs=$n count=1" does not handle partial reads. GNU dd
has iflags=fullblock, but that is not portable
- "dd bs=1 count=$n" fixes the partial read problem (all
reads are 1-byte, so there can be no partial response).
It does make a lot of write() calls, but for our tests
that's unlikely to matter. It's fairly portable. We
already use it in our tests, and it's unlikely that
implementations would screw up any of our criteria. The
most unknown one would be signal handling.
- perl can do a sysread() loop pretty easily. On my Linux
system, at least, it seems to restart the read() call
automatically. If that turns out not to be portable,
though, it would be easy for us to handle it.
That makes the perl solution the least bad (because we
conveniently omitted "length of code" as a criterion).
It's also what t9300 is currently using, so we can just pull
the implementation from there.

When we run scripted Porcelains, "git" potty has set up the $PATH by
prepending $GIT_EXEC_PATH, the path given by "git --exec-path=$there
$cmd", etc. already. Because of this, scripted Porcelains can
dot-source shell script library like git-sh-setup with simple dot
without specifying any path.
t2300 however dot-sources git-sh-setup without adjusting $PATH like
the real "git" potty does. This has not been a problem so far, but
once git-sh-setup wants to rely on the $PATH adjustment, just like
any scripted Porcelains already do, it would become one. It cannot
for example dot-source another shell library without specifying the
full path to it by prefixing $(git --exec-path).

In t5500::check_prot_host_port_path(), diagport is not a variable
used elsewhere and the function is not recursively called so this
can simply lose the "local", which may not be supported by shell
(besides, the function liberally clobbers other variables without
making them "local").
t7403::reset_submodule_urls() overrides the "root" variable used
in the test framework for no good reason; its use is not about
temporarily relocating where the test repositories are created.
This assignment can be made not to clobber the variable by moving
them into the subshells it already uses. Its value is always
$TRASH_DIRECTORY, so we could use it instead there, and this
function that is called only once and its two subshells may not be
necessary (instead, the caller can use "git -C $there config" and
set a value that is derived from $TRASH_DIRECTORY), but this is a
minimum fix that is needed to lose "local".

The one-shot environment variable syntax:
FOO=BAR some-program
is unportable when some-program is actually a shell
function, like test_must_fail (on some shells FOO remains
set after the function returns, and on others it does not).
We sometimes get around this by using env, like:
test_must_fail env FOO=BAR some-program
But that only works because test_must_fail's arguments are
themselves a command which can be run. You can't run:
env FOO=BAR test_must_fail some-program
because env does not know about our shell functions. So
there is no equivalent for test_commit, for example, and one
must resort to:
(
FOO=BAR
export FOO
test_commit
)
which is a bit verbose. Let's add a version of "env" that
works _inside_ the shell, by creating a subshell, exporting
variables from its argument list, and running the command.
Its use is demonstrated on a currently-unportable case in
t4014.
