2020-04-27bugreport: drop extraneous includesLibravatar Emily Shaffer1-2/+0
In the generic parts of the source files, system headers like <time.h> and <stdio.h> are supposed to be included indirectly by including "git-compat-util.h", which manages portability issues. Drop our explicit inclusions and rely on "cache.h", which includes "git-compat-util.h". Signed-off-by: Emily Shaffer <emilyshaffer@google.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2020-04-16bugreport: add compiler infoLibravatar Emily Shaffer1-0/+6
To help pinpoint the source of a regression, it is useful to know some info about the compiler which the user's Git client was built with. By adding a generic get_compiler_info() in 'compat/' we can choose which relevant information to share per compiler; to get started, let's demonstrate the version of glibc if the user built with 'gcc'.

2020-04-16bugreport: add uname infoLibravatar Emily Shaffer1-1/+15
The contents of uname() can give us some insight into what sort of system the user is running on, and help us replicate their setup if need be. The domainname field is not guaranteed to be available, so don't collect it. Signed-off-by: Emily Shaffer <emilyshaffer@google.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2020-04-16bugreport: gather git version and build infoLibravatar Emily Shaffer1-1/+18
Knowing which version of Git a user has and how it was built allows us to more precisely pin down the circumstances when a certain issue occurs, so teach bugreport how to tell us the same output as 'git version --build-options'. It's not ideal to directly call 'git version --build-options' because that output goes to stdout. Instead, wrap the version string in a helper within help.[ch] library, and call that helper from within the bugreport library.

2020-04-16bugreport: add tool to generate debugging infoLibravatar Emily Shaffer1-0/+105
Teach Git how to prompt the user for a good bug report: reproduction steps, expected behavior, and actual behavior. Later, Git can learn how to collect some diagnostic information from the repository. If users can send us a well-written bug report which contains diagnostic information we would otherwise need to ask the user for, we can reduce the number of question-and-answer round trips between the reporter and the Git contributor. Users may also wish to send a report like this to their local "Git expert" if they have put their repository into a state they are confused by.
