When we fail to open $GIT_DIR/info/alternates, we silently
assume there are no alternates. This is the right thing to
do for ENOENT, but not for other errors.
A hard error is probably overkill here. If we fail to read
an alternates file then either we'll complete our operation
anyway, or we'll fail to find some needed object. Either
way, a warning is good idea. And we already have a helper
function to handle this pattern; let's just call
warn_on_fopen_error().
Note that technically the errno from strbuf_read_file()
might be from a read() error, not open(). But since read()
would never return ENOENT or ENOTDIR, and since it produces
a generic "unable to access" error, it's suitable for
handling errors from either.

* jk/info-alternates-fix-2.11:
read_info_alternates: read contents into strbuf
|
|
This patch fixes a regression in v2.11.1 where we might read
past the end of an mmap'd buffer. It was introduced in
cf3c635210.
The link_alt_odb_entries() function has always taken a
ptr/len pair as input. Until cf3c635210 (alternates: accept
double-quoted paths, 2016-12-12), we made a copy of those
bytes in a string. But after that commit, we switched to
parsing the input left-to-right, and we ignore "len"
totally, instead reading until we hit a NUL.
This has mostly gone unnoticed for a few reasons:
1. All but one caller passes a NUL-terminated string, with
"len" pointing to the NUL.
2. The remaining caller, read_info_alternates(), passes in
an mmap'd file. Unless the file is an exact multiple of
the page size, it will generally be followed by NUL
padding to the end of the page, which just works.
The easiest way to demonstrate the problem is to build with:
make SANITIZE=address NO_MMAP=Nope test
Any test which involves $GIT_DIR/info/alternates will fail,
as the mmap emulation (correctly) does not add an extra NUL,
and ASAN complains about reading past the end of the buffer.
One solution would be to teach link_alt_odb_entries() to
respect "len". But it's actually a bit tricky, since we
depend on unquote_c_style() under the hood, and it has no
ptr/len variant.
We could also just make a NUL-terminated copy of the input
bytes and operate on that. But since all but one caller
already is passing a string, instead let's just fix that
caller to provide NUL-terminated input in the first place,
by swapping out mmap for strbuf_read_file().
There's no advantage to using mmap on the alternates file.
It's not expected to be large (and anyway, we're copying its
contents into an in-memory linked list). Nor is using
git_open() buying us anything here, since we don't keep the
descriptor open for a long period of time.
Let's also drop the "len" parameter entirely from
link_alt_odb_entries(), since it's completely ignored. That
will avoid any new callers re-introducing a similar bug.

"git apply" that is used as a better "patch -p1" failed to apply a
taken from a file with CRLF line endings to a file with CRLF line
endings. The root cause was because it misused convert_to_git()
that tried to do "safe-crlf" processing by looking at the index
entry at the same path, which is a nonsense---in that mode, "apply"
is not working on the data in (or derived from) the index at all.
This has been fixed.

The "tag.pager" configuration variable was useless for those who
actually create tag objects, as it interfered with the use of an
editor. A new mechanism has been introduced for commands to enable
pager depending on what operation is being carried out to fix this,
and then "git tag -l" is made to run pager by default.
If this works out OK, I think there are low-hanging fruits in
other commands like "git branch" that outputs long list in one mode
while taking input in another.
