Comparing the result of read_in_full() using less-than is
potentially dangerous, as a negative return value may be
converted to an unsigned type and be considered a success.
This is discussed further in 561598cfcf (read_pack_header:
handle signed/unsigned comparison in read result,
2017-09-13).
Each of these instances is actually fine in practice:
- in get-tar-commit-id, the HEADERSIZE macro expands to a
signed integer. If it were switched to an unsigned type
(e.g., a size_t), then it would be a bug.
- the other two callers check for a short read only after
handling a negative return separately. This is a fine
practice, but we'd prefer to model "!=" as a general
rule.
So all of these cases can be considered cleanups and not
actual bugfixes.

We call write_in_full() with a size that we know is greater
than zero. The return value can never be zero, then, since
write_in_full() converts such a failed write() into ENOSPC
and returns -1. We can just drop this branch of the error
handling entirely.

Commit 06f46f237a (avoid "write_in_full(fd, buf, len) !=
len" pattern, 2017-09-13) converted this callsite from:
write_in_full(...) != 1
to
write_in_full(...) < 0
But during the conflict resolution in c50424a6f0 (Merge
branch 'jk/write-in-full-fix', 2017-09-25), this morphed
into
write_in_full(...) < 1
This behaves as we want, but we prefer to avoid modeling the
"less than length" error-check which can be subtly buggy, as
shown in efacf609c8 (config: avoid "write_in_full(fd, buf,
len) < len" pattern, 2017-09-13).

Commit 0e5bba5 ("add UNLEAK annotation for reducing leak false

"UNLEAK(var);", but its existing definitions leave semicolons that act
as empty statements, which will lead to syntax errors, e.g.
if (condition)
UNLEAK(var);
else
something_else(var);
would be broken with two statements between if (condition) and else.
Lose the excess semicolon from the end of the macro replacement text.

The result of read_in_full() may be -1 if we saw an error.
But in comparing it to a sizeof() result, that "-1" will be
promoted to size_t. In fact, the largest possible size_t
which is much bigger than our struct size. This means that
our "< sizeof(header)" error check won't trigger.
In practice, we'd go on to read uninitialized memory and
compare it to the PACK signature, which is likely to fail.
But we shouldn't get there.
We can fix this by making a direct "!=" comparison to the
requested size, rather than "<". This means that errors get
lumped in with short reads, but that's sufficient for our
purposes here. There's no PH_ERROR tp represent our case.
And anyway, this function reads from pipes and network
sockets. A network error may racily appear as EOF to us
anyway if there's data left in the socket buffers.

The store_write_section() and store_write_pairs() functions
are basically high-level wrappers around write(). But their
return values are flipped from our usual convention, using
"1" for success and "0" for failure.
Let's flip them to follow the usual write() conventions and
update all callers. As these are local to config.c, it's
unlikely that we'd have new callers in any topics in flight
(which would be silently broken by our change). But just to
be on the safe side, let's rename them to just
write_section() and write_pairs(). That also accentuates
their relationship with write().

We store the return value of write_in_full() in a long,
though the return is actually an ssize_t. This probably
doesn't matter much in practice (since the buffer size is
alredy an unsigned long), but it might if the size if
between what can be represented in "long" and "unsigned
long", and if your size_t is larger than a "long" (as it is
on 64-bit Windows).

As with the previous two commits, we prefer to check
write_in_full()'s return value to see if it is negative,
rather than comparing it to the input length.
These cases actually flip the logic to check for success,
making conversion a little different than in other cases. We
could of course write:
if (write_in_full(...) >= 0)
return 0;
return error(...);
But our usual method of spelling write() error checks is
just "< 0". So let's flip the logic for each of these
conditionals to our usual style.

The prior commit converted many sites to check the return
value of write_in_full() for negativity, rather than a
mismatch with the input length. This patch covers similar
cases, but where the return value is stored in an
intermediate variable. These should get the same treatment,
but they need to be reviewed more carefully since it would
be a bug if the return value is stored in an unsigned type
(which indeed, it is in one of the cases).

The return value of write_in_full() is either "-1", or the
requested number of bytes[1]. If we make a partial write
before seeing an error, we still return -1, not a partial
value. This goes back to f6aa66cb95 (write_in_full: really
write in full or return error on disk full., 2007-01-11).
So checking anything except "was the return value negative"
is pointless. And there are a couple of reasons not to do
so:
1. It can do a funny signed/unsigned comparison. If your
"len" is signed (e.g., a size_t) then the compiler will
promote the "-1" to its unsigned variant.
This works out for "!= len" (unless you really were
trying to write the maximum size_t bytes), but is a
bug if you check "< len" (an example of which was fixed
recently in config.c).
We should avoid promoting the mental model that you
need to check the length at all, so that new sites are
not tempted to copy us.
2. Checking for a negative value is shorter to type,
especially when the length is an expression.
3. Linus says so. In d34cf19b89 (Clean up write_in_full()
users, 2007-01-11), right after the write_in_full()
semantics were changed, he wrote:
I really wish every "write_in_full()" user would just
check against "<0" now, but this fixes the nasty and
stupid ones.
Appeals to authority aside, this makes it clear that
writing it this way does not have an intentional
benefit. It's a historical curiosity that we never
bothered to clean up (and which was undoubtedly
cargo-culted into new sites).
So let's convert these obviously-correct cases (this
includes write_str_in_full(), which is just a wrapper for
write_in_full()).
[1] A careful reader may notice there is one way that
write_in_full() can return a different value. If we ask
write() to write N bytes and get a return value that is
_larger_ than N, we could return a larger total. But
besides the fact that this would imply a totally broken
version of write(), it would already invoke undefined
behavior. Our internal remaining counter is an unsigned
size_t, which means that subtracting too many byte will
wrap it around to a very large number. So we'll instantly
begin reading off the end of the buffer, trying to write
gigabytes (or petabytes) of data.

We ask to write 41 bytes and make sure that the return value
is at least 41. This is the same "dangerous" pattern that
was fixed in the prior commit (wherein a negative return
value is promoted to unsigned), though it is not dangerous
here because our "41" is a constant, not an unsigned
variable.
But we should convert it anyway to avoid modeling a
dangerous construct.

The return type of write_in_full() is a signed ssize_t,
because we may return "-1" on failure (even if we succeeded
in writing some bytes). But "len" itself is may be an
unsigned type (the function takes a size_t, but of course we
may have something else in the calling function). So while
it seems like:
if (write_in_full(fd, buf, len) < len)
die_errno("write error");
would trigger on error, it won't if "len" is unsigned. The
compiler sees a signed/unsigned comparison and promotes the
signed value, resulting in (size_t)-1, the highest possible
size_t (or again, whatever type the caller has). This cannot
possibly be smaller than "len", and so the conditional can
never trigger.
I scoured the code base for cases of this, but it turns out
that these two in git_config_set_multivar_in_file_gently()
are the only ones. Here our "len" is the difference between
two size_t variables, making the result an unsigned size_t.
We can fix this by just checking for a negative return value
directly, as write_in_full() will never return any value
except -1 or the full count.
There's no addition to the test suite here, since you need
to convince write() to fail in order to see the problem. The
simplest reproduction recipe I came up with is to trigger
ENOSPC:
# make a limited-size filesystem
dd if=/dev/zero of=small.disk bs=1M count=1
mke2fs small.disk
mkdir mnt
sudo mount -o loop small.disk mnt
cd mnt
sudo chown $USER:$USER .
# make a config file with some content
git config --file=config one.key value
git config --file=config two.key value
# now fill up the disk
dd if=/dev/zero of=fill
# and try to delete a key, which requires copying the rest
# of the file to config.lock, and will fail on write()
git config --file=config --unset two.key
That final command should (and does after this patch)
produce an error message due to the failed write, and leave
the file intact. Instead, it silently ignores the failure
and renames config.lock into place, leaving you with a
totally empty config file!

The handshake_capabilities() function first advertises the set of
capabilities it supports, so that the other side can pick and choose
which ones to use and ask us to enable in its response. Then we
read the response that tells us what choice the other side made. If
we saw something that we never advertised, that indicates one of two
things. The other side, i.e. the "upgraded" filter, is not paying
attention of the capabilities advertisement, and asking something
its correct operation relies on, but we are not capable of giving
that unknown feature and operate without it, so after that point the
exchange of data is a garbage-in-garbage-out. Or the other side
wanted to ask for one of the capabilities we advertised, but the
code has typo and their wish to enable a capability that its correct
operation relies on is not understood on this end. The result is
the same garbage-in-garbage-out.
Instead of sweeping such a potential bug under the rug, die loudly
when we see a request for an unsupported capability in order to
force sloppily-written filter scripts to get corrected.
