2014-12-17read-cache: optionally disallow NTFS .git variantsLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+6
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.

2014-09-17signed push: allow stale nonce in stateless modeLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+13
When operating with the stateless RPC mode, we will receive a nonce issued by another instance of us that advertised our capability and refs some time ago. Update the logic to check received nonce to detect this case, compute how much time has passed since the nonce was issued and report the status with a new environment variable GIT_PUSH_CERT_NONCE_SLOP to the hooks. GIT_PUSH_CERT_NONCE_STATUS will report "SLOP" in such a case. The hooks are free to decide how large a slop it is willing to accept. Strictly speaking, the "nonce" is not really a "nonce" anymore in the stateless RPC mode, as it will happily take any "nonce" issued by it (which is protected by HMAC and its secret key) as long as it is fresh enough. The degree of this security degradation, relative to the native protocol, is about the same as the "we make sure that the 'git push' decided to update our refs with new objects based on the freshest observation of our refs by making sure the values they claim the original value of the refs they ask us to update exactly match the current state" security is loosened to accomodate the stateless RPC mode in the existing code without this series, so there is no need for those who are already using smart HTTP to push to their repositories to be alarmed any more than they already are. In addition, the server operator can set receive.certnonceslop configuration variable to specify how stale a nonce can be (in seconds). When this variable is set, and if the nonce received in the certificate that passes the HMAC check was less than that many seconds old, hooks are given "OK" in GIT_PUSH_CERT_NONCE_STATUS (instead of "SLOP") and the received nonce value is given in GIT_PUSH_CERT_NONCE, which makes it easier for a simple-minded hook to check if the certificate we received is recent enough.

2014-09-17signed push: fortify against replay attacksLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-6/+6
In order to prevent a valid push certificate for pushing into an repository from getting replayed in a different push operation, send a nonce string from the receive-pack process and have the signer include it in the push certificate. The receiving end uses an HMAC hash of the path to the repository it serves and the current time stamp, hashed with a secret seed (the secret seed does not have to be per-repository but can be defined in /etc/gitconfig) to generate the nonce, in order to ensure that a random third party cannot forge a nonce that looks like it originated from it. The original nonce is exported as GIT_PUSH_CERT_NONCE for the hooks to examine and match against the value on the "nonce" header in the certificate to notice a replay, but returned "nonce" header in the push certificate is examined by receive-pack and the result is exported as GIT_PUSH_CERT_NONCE_STATUS, whose value would be "OK" if the nonce recorded in the certificate matches what we expect, so that the hooks can more easily check.

2014-09-15push: the beginning of "git push --signed"Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+6
While signed tags and commits assert that the objects thusly signed came from you, who signed these objects, there is not a good way to assert that you wanted to have a particular object at the tip of a particular branch. My signing v2.0.1 tag only means I want to call the version v2.0.1, and it does not mean I want to push it out to my 'master' branch---it is likely that I only want it in 'maint', so the signature on the object alone is insufficient. The only assurance to you that 'maint' points at what I wanted to place there comes from your trust on the hosting site and my authentication with it, which cannot easily audited later. Introduce a mechanism that allows you to sign a "push certificate" (for the lack of better name) every time you push, asserting that what object you are pushing to update which ref that used to point at what other object. Think of it as a cryptographic protection for ref updates, similar to signed tags/commits but working on an orthogonal axis. The basic flow based on this mechanism goes like this: 1. You push out your work with "git push --signed". 2. The sending side learns where the remote refs are as usual, together with what protocol extension the receiving end supports. If the receiving end does not advertise the protocol extension "push-cert", an attempt to "git push --signed" fails. Otherwise, a text file, that looks like the following, is prepared in core: certificate version 0.1 pusher Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com> 1315427886 -0700 7339ca65... 21580ecb... refs/heads/master 3793ac56... 12850bec... refs/heads/next The file begins with a few header lines, which may grow as we gain more experience. The 'pusher' header records the name of the signer (the value of user.signingkey configuration variable, falling back to GIT_COMMITTER_{NAME|EMAIL}) and the time of the certificate generation. After the header, a blank line follows, followed by a copy of the protocol message lines. Each line shows the old and the new object name at the tip of the ref this push tries to update, in the way identical to how the underlying "git push" protocol exchange tells the ref updates to the receiving end (by recording the "old" object name, the push certificate also protects against replaying). It is expected that new command packet types other than the old-new-refname kind will be included in push certificate in the same way as would appear in the plain vanilla command packets in unsigned pushes. The user then is asked to sign this push certificate using GPG, formatted in a way similar to how signed tag objects are signed, and the result is sent to the other side (i.e. receive-pack). In the protocol exchange, this step comes immediately before the sender tells what the result of the push should be, which in turn comes before it sends the pack data. 3. When the receiving end sees a push certificate, the certificate is written out as a blob. The pre-receive hook can learn about the certificate by checking GIT_PUSH_CERT environment variable, which, if present, tells the object name of this blob, and make the decision to allow or reject this push. Additionally, the post-receive hook can also look at the certificate, which may be a good place to log all the received certificates for later audits. Because a push certificate carry the same information as the usual command packets in the protocol exchange, we can omit the latter when a push certificate is in use and reduce the protocol overhead. This however is not included in this patch to make it easier to review (in other words, the series at this step should never be released without the remainder of the series, as it implements an interim protocol that will be incompatible with the final one). As such, the documentation update for the protocol is left out of this step. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2014-06-06Merge branch 'mm/pager-less-sans-S'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-5/+10
Since the very beginning of Git, we gave the LESS environment a default value "FRSX" when we spawn "less" as the pager. "S" (chop long lines instead of wrapping) has been removed from this default set of options, because it is more or less a personal taste thing, as opposed to others that have good justifications (i.e. "R" is very much justified because many kinds of output we produce are colored and "FX" is justified because output we produce is often shorter than a page). Existing users who prefer not to see line-wrapped output may want to set $ git config core.pager "less -S" to restore the traditional behaviour. It is expected that people find output from the most subcommands easier to read with the new default, except for "blame" which tends to produce really long lines. To override the new default only for "git blame", you can do this: $ git config pager.blame "less -S" * mm/pager-less-sans-S: pager: remove 'S' from $LESS by default

When core.commentChar is "auto", the comment char starts with '#' as in default but if it's already in the prepared message, find another char in a small subset. This should stop surprises because git strips some lines unexpectedly.

It thinks '#' lines in custom templates as part of the commit message. So don't use this with custom templates.

2014-05-07pager: remove 'S' from $LESS by defaultLibravatar Matthieu Moy1-5/+10
By default, Git used to set $LESS to -FRSX if $LESS was not set by the user. The FRX flags actually make sense for Git (F and X because sometimes the output Git pipes to less is short, and R because Git pipes colored output). The S flag (chop long lines), on the other hand, is not related to Git and is a matter of user preference. Git should not decide for the user to change LESS's default. More specifically, the S flag harms users who review untrusted code within a pager, since a patch looking like: -old code; +new good code; [... lots of tabs ...] malicious code; would appear identical to: -old code; +new good code; Users who prefer the old behavior can still set the $LESS environment variable to -FRSX explicitly, or set core.pager to 'less -S'. The documentation in config.txt is made a bit longer to keep both an example setting the 'S' flag (needed to recover the old behavior) and an example showing how to unset a flag set by Git.

2014-04-07status/commit: show staged submodules regardless of ignore configLibravatar Jens Lehmann1-2/+6
Currently setting submodule.<name>.ignore and/or diff.ignoreSubmodules to "all" suppresses all output of submodule changes for the diff family, status and commit. For status and commit this is really confusing, as it even when the user chooses to record a new commit for an ignored submodule by adding it manually this change won't show up under the to-be-committed changes. To add insult to injury, a later "git commit" will error out with "nothing to commit" when only ignored submodules are staged. Fix that by making wt_status always print staged submodule changes, no matter what ignore settings are configured. The only exception is when the user explicitly uses the "--ignore-submodules=all" command line option, in that case the submodule output is still suppressed. This also makes "git commit" work again when only modifications of ignored submodules are staged, as that command uses the "commitable" member of the wt_status struct to determine if staged changes are present. But this only happens when the commit command uses the wt_status* functions to produce status output for human consumption (when forking an editor or with --dry-run), in all other cases (e.g. when run in a script with '-m') another code path is taken which uses index_differs_from() to determine if any changes are staged which still ignores submodules according to their configuration. This will be fixed in a follow-up commit. Change t7508 to reflect this new behavior and add three new tests to show that a single staged submodule configured to be ignored will be committed when the status output is generated and won't be if not. Also update the documentation of the ignore config options accordingly. Signed-off-by: Jens Lehmann <Jens.Lehmann@web.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
