2013-09-24git-remote-mediawiki: bugfix for pages w/ >500 revisionsLibravatar Benoit Person2-2/+35
Mediawiki introduces a new API for queries w/ more than 500 results in version 1.21. That change triggered an infinite loop while cloning a mediawiki with such a page. The latest API renamed and moved the "continuing" information in the response, necessary to build the next query. The code failed to retrieve that information but still detected that it was in a "continuing query". As a result, it launched the same query over and over again. If a "continuing" information is detected in the response (old or new), the next query is updated accordingly. If not, we quit assuming it's not a continuing query.

2013-08-28mailmap: handle mailmap blobs without trailing newlinesLibravatar Jeff King2-13/+24
The read_mailmap_buf function reads each line of the mailmap using strchrnul, like: const char *end = strchrnul(buf, '\n'); unsigned long linelen = end - buf + 1; But that's off-by-one when we actually hit the NUL byte; our line does not have a terminator, and so is only "end - buf" bytes long. As a result, when we subtract the linelen from the total len, we end up with (unsigned long)-1 bytes left in the buffer, and we start reading random junk from memory. We could fix it with: unsigned long linelen = end - buf + !!*end; but let's take a step back for a moment. It's questionable in the first place for a function that takes a buffer and length to be using strchrnul. But it works because we only have one caller (and are only likely to ever have this one), which is handing us data from read_sha1_file. Which means that it's always NUL-terminated. Instead of tightening the assumptions to make the buffer/length pair work for a caller that doesn't actually exist, let's let loosen the assumptions to what the real caller has: a modifiable, NUL-terminated string. This makes the code simpler and shorter (because we don't have to correlate strchrnul with the length calculation), correct (because the code with the off-by-one just goes away), and more efficient (we can drop the extra allocation we needed to create NUL-terminated strings for each line, and just terminate in place).

2013-08-26config: do not use C function names as struct membersLibravatar Jeff King1-16/+16
According to C99, section 7.1.4: Any function declared in a header may be additionally implemented as a function-like macro defined in the header. Therefore calling our struct member function pointer "fgetc" may run afoul of unwanted macro expansion when we call: char c = cf->fgetc(cf); This turned out to be a problem on uclibc, which defines fgetc as a macro and causes compilation failure. The standard suggests fixing this in a few ways: 1. Using extra parentheses to inhibit the function-like macro expansion. E.g., "(cf->fgetc)(cf)". This is undesirable as it's ugly, and each call site needs to remember to use it (and on systems without the macro, forgetting will compile just fine). 2. Using #undef (because a conforming implementation must also be providing fgetc as a function). This is undesirable because presumably the implementation was using the macro for a performance benefit, and we are dropping that optimization. Instead, we can simply use non-colliding names.

2013-08-25fetch-pack: do not remove .git/shallow file when --depth is not specifiedLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy2-1/+19
fetch_pack() can remove .git/shallow file when a shallow repository becomes a full one again. This behavior is triggered incorrectly when tags are also fetched because fetch_pack() will be called twice. At the first fetch_pack() call: - shallow_lock is set up - alternate_shallow_file points to shallow_lock.filename, which is "shallow.lock" - commit_lock_file is called, which sets shallow_lock.filename to "". alternate_shallow_file also becomes "" because it points to the same memory. At the second call, setup_alternate_shallow() is not called and alternate_shallow_file remains "". It's mistaken as unshallow case and .git/shallow is removed. The end result is a broken repository. Fix this by always initializing alternate_shallow_file when fetch_pack() is called. As an extra measure, check if args->depth > 0 before commit/rollback shallow file.

Old Bash (3.0) which is distributed with RHEL 4.X and other ancient platforms that are still in wide use, do not have a printf that supports -v. Neither does Zsh (which is already handled in the code). As suggested by Junio, let's test whether printf supports the -v option and store the result. Then later, we can use it to determine whether 'printf -v' can be used, or whether printf must be called in a subshell.

2013-08-20xread, xwrite: limit size of IO to 8MBLibravatar Steffen Prohaska2-0/+26
Checking out 2GB or more through an external filter (see test) fails on Mac OS X 10.8.4 (12E55) for a 64-bit executable with: error: read from external filter cat failed error: cannot feed the input to external filter cat error: cat died of signal 13 error: external filter cat failed 141 error: external filter cat failed The reason is that read() immediately returns with EINVAL when asked to read more than 2GB. According to POSIX [1], if the value of nbyte passed to read() is greater than SSIZE_MAX, the result is implementation-defined. The write function has the same restriction [2]. Since OS X still supports running 32-bit executables, the 32-bit limit (SSIZE_MAX = INT_MAX = 2GB - 1) seems to be also imposed on 64-bit executables under certain conditions. For write, the problem has been addressed earlier [6c642a]. Address the problem for read() and write() differently, by limiting size of IO chunks unconditionally on all platforms in xread() and xwrite(). Large chunks only cause problems, like causing latencies when killing the process, even if OS X was not buggy. Doing IO in reasonably sized smaller chunks should have no negative impact on performance. The compat wrapper clipped_write() introduced earlier [6c642a] is not needed anymore. It will be reverted in a separate commit. The new test catches read and write problems. Note that 'git add' exits with 0 even if it prints filtering errors to stderr. The test, therefore, checks stderr. 'git add' should probably be changed (sometime in another commit) to exit with nonzero if filtering fails. The test could then be changed to use test_must_fail.
