When our pickaxe code feeds file contents to regexec(), it implicitly
assumes that the file contents are read into implicitly NUL-terminated
buffers (i.e. that we overallocate by 1, appending a single '\0').
This is not so.
In particular when the file contents are simply mmap()ed, we can be
virtually certain that the buffer is preceding uninitialized bytes, or
invalid pages.
Note that the test we add here is known to be flakey: we simply cannot
know whether the byte following the mmap()ed ones is a NUL or not.
Typically, on Linux the test passes. On Windows, it fails virtually
every time due to an access violation (that's a segmentation fault for
you Unix-y people out there). And Windows would be correct: the
regexec() call wants to operate on a regular, NUL-terminated string,
there is no NUL in the mmap()ed memory range, and it is undefined
whether the next byte is even legal to access.
When run with --valgrind it demonstrates quite clearly the breakage, of
course.
Being marked with `test_expect_failure`, this test will sometimes be
declare "TODO fixed", even if it only passes by mistake.
This test case represents a Minimal, Complete and Verifiable Example of
a breakage reported by Chris Sidi.

Many commands normalize command line arguments from NFD to NFC
variant of UTF-8 on OSX, but commands in the "diff" family did
not, causing "git diff $path" to complain that no such path is
known to Git. They have been taught to do the normalization.

Running tests with '-x' option to trace the individual command
executions is a useful way to debug test scripts, but some tests
that capture the standard error stream and check what the command
said can be broken with the trace output mixed in. When running
our tests under "bash", however, we can redirect the trace output
to another file descriptor to keep the standard error of programs
being tested intact.

"git describe --contains" often made a hard-to-justify choice of
tag to give name to a given commit, because it tried to come up
with a name with smallest number of hops from a tag, causing an old
commit whose close descendant that is recently tagged were not
described with respect to an old tag but with a newer tag. It did
not help that its computation of "hop" count was further tweaked to
penalize being on a side branch of a merge. The logic has been
updated to favor using the tag with the oldest tagger date, which
is a lot easier to explain to the end users: "We describe a commit
in terms of the (chronologically) oldest tag that contains the
commit."

archive-tar: convert snprintf to xsnprintf
|
|
MSYS2 emulates pseudo terminals via named pipes, and isatty() returns 0
for such file descriptors. Therefore, some interactive functionality
(such as launching a pager, asking if a failed unlink should be repeated
etc.) doesn't work when run in a terminal emulator that uses MSYS2's
ptys (such as mintty).
However, MSYS2 uses special names for its pty pipes ('msys-*-pty*'),
which allows us to distinguish them from normal piped input / output.
On startup, check if stdin / stdout / stderr are connected to such pipes
using the NtQueryObject API from NTDll.dll. If the names match, adjust
the flags in MSVCRT's ioinfo structure accordingly.

* jk/war-on-sprintf:
archive-tar: convert snprintf to xsnprintf
|
|
Commit f2f0267 (archive-tar: use xsnprintf for trivial
formatting, 2015-09-24) converted cases of "sprintf" to
"xsnprintf", but accidentally left one as just "snprintf".
This meant that we could silently truncate the resulting
buffer instead of flagging an error.
In practice, this is impossible to achieve, as we are
formatting a ustar checksum, which can be at most 7
characters. But the point of xsnprintf is to document and
check for "should be impossible" conditions; this site was
just accidentally mis-converted during f2f0267.
