"git format-patch" can take a set of configured format.notes values to specify which notes refs to use in the log message part of the output.

2019-12-13sparse-checkout: respect core.ignoreCase in cone modeLibravatar Derrick Stolee1-0/+5
When a user uses the sparse-checkout feature in cone mode, they add patterns using "git sparse-checkout set <dir1> <dir2> ..." or by using "--stdin" to provide the directories line-by-line over stdin. This behaviour naturally looks a lot like the way a user would type "git add <dir1> <dir2> ..." If core.ignoreCase is enabled, then "git add" will match the input using a case-insensitive match. Do the same for the sparse-checkout feature. Perform case-insensitive checks while updating the skip-worktree bits during unpack_trees(). This is done by changing the hash algorithm and hashmap comparison methods to optionally use case- insensitive methods. When this is enabled, there is a small performance cost in the hashing algorithm. To tease out the worst possible case, the following was run on a repo with a deep directory structure: git ls-tree -d -r --name-only HEAD | git sparse-checkout set --stdin The 'set' command was timed with core.ignoreCase disabled or enabled. For the repo with a deep history, the numbers were core.ignoreCase=false: 62s core.ignoreCase=true: 74s (+19.3%) For reproducibility, the equivalent test on the Linux kernel repository had these numbers: core.ignoreCase=false: 3.1s core.ignoreCase=true: 3.6s (+16%) Now, this is not an entirely fair comparison, as most users will define their sparse cone using more shallow directories, and the performance improvement from eb42feca97 ("unpack-trees: hash less in cone mode" 2019-11-21) can remove most of the hash cost. For a more realistic test, drop the "-r" from the ls-tree command to store only the first-level directories. In that case, the Linux kernel repository takes 0.2-0.25s in each case, and the deep repository takes one second, plus or minus 0.05s, in each case. Thus, we _can_ demonstrate a cost to this change, but it is unlikely to matter to any reasonable sparse-checkout cone.

In 8164c961e1 (format-patch: use --notes behavior for format.notes, 2019-12-09), we slightly tweaked the behavior of having multiple `format.notes` configuration variables. We did not update the documentation to reflect this, however. Explictly state the behavior of having multiple `format.notes` configuration variables so users are clear on what to expect.

2019-12-06submodule: reject submodule.update = !command in .gitmodulesLibravatar Jonathan Nieder1-3/+2
Since ac1fbbda2013 (submodule: do not copy unknown update mode from .gitmodules, 2013-12-02), Git has been careful to avoid copying [submodule "foo"] update = !run an arbitrary scary command from .gitmodules to a repository's local config, copying in the setting 'update = none' instead. The gitmodules(5) manpage documents the intention: The !command form is intentionally ignored here for security reasons Unfortunately, starting with v2.20.0-rc0 (which integrated ee69b2a9 (submodule--helper: introduce new update-module-mode helper, 2018-08-13, first released in v2.20.0-rc0)), there are scenarios where we *don't* ignore it: if the config store contains no submodule.foo.update setting, the submodule-config API falls back to reading .gitmodules and the repository-supplied !command gets run after all. This was part of a general change over time in submodule support to read more directly from .gitmodules, since unlike .git/config it allows a project to change values between branches and over time (while still allowing .git/config to override things). But it was never intended to apply to this kind of dangerous configuration. The behavior change was not advertised in ee69b2a9's commit message and was missed in review. Let's take the opportunity to make the protection more robust, even in Git versions that are technically not affected: instead of quietly converting 'update = !command' to 'update = none', noisily treat it as an error. Allowing the setting but treating it as meaning something else was just confusing; users are better served by seeing the error sooner. Forbidding the construct makes the semantics simpler and means we can check for it in fsck (in a separate patch). As a result, the submodule-config API cannot read this value from .gitmodules under any circumstance, and we can declare with confidence For security reasons, the '!command' form is not accepted here.
