By default, a patch that affects outside the working area (either a
Git controlled working tree, or the current working directory when
"git apply" is used as a replacement of GNU patch) is rejected as a
mistake (or a mischief). Git itself does not create such a patch,
unless the user bends over backwards and specifies a non-standard
prefix to "git diff" and friends.
When `git apply` is used as a "better GNU patch", the user can pass
the `--unsafe-paths` option to override this safety check. This
option has no effect when `--index` or `--cached` is in use.
The new test was stolen from Jeff King with slight enhancements.
Note that a few new tests for touching outside the working area by
following a symbolic link are still expected to fail at this step,
but will be fixed in later steps.

* jk/dotgit-case-maint-1.8.5:
is_hfs_dotgit: loosen over-eager match of \u{..47}
|
|
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.

* dotgit-case-maint-1.8.5:
fsck: complain about NTFS ".git" aliases in trees
read-cache: optionally disallow NTFS .git variants
path: add is_ntfs_dotgit() helper
fsck: complain about HFS+ ".git" aliases in trees
read-cache: optionally disallow HFS+ .git variants
utf8: add is_hfs_dotgit() helper
fsck: notice .git case-insensitively
t1450: refactor ".", "..", and ".git" fsck tests
verify_dotfile(): reject .git case-insensitively
read-tree: add tests for confusing paths like ".." and ".git"
unpack-trees: propagate errors adding entries to the index
|
|
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.

Now that the index can block pathnames that case-fold to
".git" on HFS+, 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.protectHFS set. This is technically more
restrictive than we need to be, as a set of users on ext4

However, on balance, it's helpful for all servers to block

in, meaning mischief is almost certainly what the tree

overwrite our repository files. However, asking "is this
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.

We create a directory that cannot be removed, confirm that
it cannot be removed, and then fix it like:
chmod 0 foo &&
test_must_fail git clean -d -f &&
chmod 755 foo
If the middle step fails but leaves the directory (e.g., the
bug is that clean does not notice the failure), this
pollutes the test repo with an unremovable directory. Not
only does this cause further tests to fail, but it means
that "rm -rf" fails on the whole trash directory, and the
user has to intervene manually to even re-run the test script.
We can bump the "chmod 755" recovery to a test_when_finished
block to be sure that it always runs.

In the original shell version of git-repack, any options
destined for pack-objects were left as strings, and passed
as a whole. Since the C rewrite in commit a1bbc6c (repack:
rewrite the shell script in C, 2013-09-15), we now parse
these values to integers internally, then reformat the
integers when passing the option to pack-objects.
This has the advantage that we catch format errors earlier
(i.e., when repack is invoked, rather than when pack-objects
is invoked).
It has three disadvantages, though:
1. Our internal data types may not be the right size. In
the case of "--window-memory" and "--max-pack-size",
these are "unsigned long" in pack-objects, but we can
only represent a regular "int".
2. Our parsing routines might not be the same as those of
pack-objects. For the two options above, pack-objects
understands "100m" to mean "100 megabytes", but repack
does not.
3. We have to keep a sentinel value to know whether it is
worth passing the option along. In the case of
"--window-memory", we currently do not pass it if the
value is "0". But that is a meaningful value to
pack-objects, where it overrides any configured value.
We can fix all of these by simply passing the strings from
the user along to pack-objects verbatim. This does not
actually fix anything for "--depth" or "--window", but these
are converted, too, for consistency.

Subversion serf backend in versions 1.8.5 and below has a bug(*) that the
function creating the descriptor of a file change -- add_file() --
doesn't make a copy of its third argument when storing it on the
returned descriptor. As a result, by the time this field is used (in
transactions of file copying or renaming) it may well be released, and
the memory reused.
One of its possible manifestations is the svn assertion triggering on an
invalid path, with a message
svn_fspath__skip_ancestor: Assertion
`svn_fspath__is_canonical(child_fspath)' failed.
This patch works around this bug, by storing the value to be passed as
the third argument to add_file() in a local variable with the same scope
as the file change descriptor, making sure their lifetime is the same.

When sending patches on Fedora rawhide with
git-1.8.5.2-1.fc21.x86_64 and perl-IO-Socket-SSL-1.962-1.fc21.noarch,
with the following
[sendemail]
smtpencryption = tls
smtpserver = smtp.gmail.com
smtpuser = ruben@rubenkerkhof.com
smtpserverport = 587
git-send-email fails with:

error:14090086:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_SERVER_CERTIFICATE:certificate
verify failed at /usr/libexec/git-core/git-send-email line 1236.
The current code detects the presence of /etc/ssl/certs directory
(it actually is a symlink to another directory, but that does not
matter) and uses SSL_ca_path to point at it when initializing the
connection with IO::Socket::SSL or Net::SMTP::SSL. However, on the
said platform, it seems that this directory is not designed to be
used as SSL_ca_path. Using a single file inside that directory
(cert.pem, which is a Mozilla CA bundle) with SSL_ca_file does work,
and also not specifying any SSL_ca_file/SSL_ca_path (and letting the
library use its own default) and asking for peer verification does
work.
By removing the code that blindly defaults $smtp_ssl_cert_path to
"/etc/ssl/certs", we can prevent the codepath that treats any
directory specified with that variable as usable for SSL_ca_path
from incorrectly triggering.
This change could introduce a regression for people on a platform
whose certificate directory is /etc/ssl/certs but its IO::Socket:SSL
somehow fails to use it as SSL_ca_path without being told. Using
/etc/ssl/certs directory as SSL_ca_path by default like the current
code does would have been hiding such a broken installation without
its user needing to do anything. These users can still work around
such a platform bug by setting the configuration variable explicitly
to point at /etc/ssl/certs.
This change should not negate what 35035bbf (send-email: be explicit
with SSL certificate verification, 2013-07-18), which was the
original change that introduced the defaulting to /etc/ssl/certs/,
attempted to do, which is to make sure we do not communicate over
insecure connection by default, triggering warning from the library.

With the previous fix 895c5ba3 (revision: do not peel tags used in
range notation, 2013-09-19), handle_revision_arg() that processes
command line arguments for the "git log" family of commands no
longer directly places the object pointed by the tag in the pending
object array when it sees a tag object. We used to place pointee
there after copying the flag bits like UNINTERESTING and
SYMMETRIC_LEFT.
This change meant that any flag that is relevant to later history
traversal must now be propagated to the pointed objects (most often
these are commits) while starting the traversal, which is partly
done by handle_commit() that is called from prepare_revision_walk().
We did propagate UNINTERESTING, but did not do so for others, most
notably SYMMETRIC_LEFT. This caused "git log --left-right v1.0..."
(where "v1.0" is a tag) to start losing the "leftness" from the
commit the tag points at.

"git rev-list --objects ^A^{tree} B^{tree}" ought to mean "I want a
list of objects inside B's tree, but please exclude the objects that
appear inside A's tree".
we see the top-level tree marked as uninteresting (i.e. ^A^{tree} in
the above example) and call mark_tree_uninteresting() on it; this
unfortunately prevents us from recursing into the tree and marking
the objects in the tree as uninteresting.
The reason why "git log ^A A" yields an empty set of commits,
i.e. we do not have a similar issue for commits, is because we call
mark_parents_uninteresting() after seeing an uninteresting commit.
The uninteresting-ness of the commit itself does not prevent its
parents from being marked as uninteresting.
Introduce mark_tree_contents_uninteresting() and structure the code
in handle_commit() in such a way that it makes it the responsibility
of the callchain leading to this function to mark commits, trees and
blobs as uninteresting, and also make it the responsibility of the
helpers called from this function to mark objects that are reachable
from them.
Note that this is a very old bug that probably dates back to the day
when "rev-list --objects" was introduced. The line to clear
tree->object.parsed at the end of mark_tree_contents_uninteresting()
can be removed when this fix is merged to the codebase after
6e454b9a (clear parsed flag when we free tree buffers, 2013-06-05).

When we parse a string like "foo@{upstream}", we look for
the first "@"-sign, and check to see if it is an upstream
mark. However, since branch names can contain an @, we may
also see "@foo@{upstream}". In this case, we check only the
first @, and ignore the second. As a result, we do not find
the upstream.
We can solve this by iterating through all @-marks in the
string, and seeing if any is a legitimate upstream or
empty-at mark.
Another strategy would be to parse from the right-hand side
of the string. However, that does not work for the
"empty_at" case, which allows "@@{upstream}". We need to
find the left-most one in this case (and we then recurse as
"HEAD@{upstream}").

get_sha1() cannot currently parse a valid object name like
"HEAD:@{upstream}" (assuming that such an oddly named file
exists in the HEAD commit). It takes two passes to parse the
string:
1. It first considers the whole thing as a ref, which
results in looking for the upstream of "HEAD:".
2. It finds the colon, parses "HEAD" as a tree-ish, and then
finds the path "@{upstream}" in the tree.
For a path that looks like a normal reflog (e.g.,
"HEAD:@{yesterday}"), the first pass is a no-op. We try to
dwim_ref("HEAD:"), that returns zero refs, and we proceed
with colon-parsing.
For "HEAD:@{upstream}", though, the first pass ends up in
interpret_upstream_mark, which tries to find the branch
"HEAD:". When it sees that the branch does not exist, it
actually dies rather than returning an error to the caller.
As a result, we never make it to the second pass.
One obvious way of fixing this would be to teach
interpret_upstream_mark to simply report "no, this isn't an
upstream" in such a case. However, that would make the
error-reporting for legitimate upstream cases significantly
worse. Something like "bogus@{upstream}" would simply report
"unknown revision: bogus@{upstream}", while the current code
diagnoses a wide variety of possible misconfigurations (no
such branch, branch exists but does not have upstream, etc).
However, we can take advantage of the fact that a branch
name cannot contain a colon. Therefore even if we find an
upstream mark, any prefix with a colon must mean that
the upstream mark we found is actually a pathname, and
should be disregarded completely. This patch implements that
logic.
