Set packet_trace_identity() for ls-remote. This replaces the generic
"git" identity in GIT_TRACE_PACKET=<file> traces to "ls-remote", e.g.:
[...] packet: upload-pack> version 2
[...] packet: upload-pack> agent=git/2.32.0-dev
[...] packet: ls-remote< version 2
[...] packet: ls-remote< agent=git/2.32.0-dev
Where in an "git ls-remote file://<path>" dialog ">" is the sender (or
"to the server") and "<" is the recipient (or "received by the
client").

Plug or annotate remaining leaks that trigger while running the
very basic set of tests.
* ah/plugleaks:
transport: also free remote_refs in transport_disconnect()
parse-options: don't leak alias help messages
parse-options: convert bitfield values to use binary shift
init-db: silence template_dir leak when converting to absolute path
init: remove git_init_db_config() while fixing leaks
worktree: fix leak in dwim_branch()
clone: free or UNLEAK further pointers when finished
reset: free instead of leaking unneeded ref
symbolic-ref: don't leak shortened refname in check_symref()
|

transport_get_remote_refs() can populate the transport struct's
remote_refs. transport_disconnect() is already responsible for most of
transport's cleanup - therefore we also take care of freeing remote_refs
there.
There are 2 locations where transport_disconnect() is called before
we're done using the returned remote_refs. This patch changes those
callsites to only call transport_disconnect() after the returned refs
are no longer being used - which is necessary to safely be able to
free remote_refs during transport_disconnect().
This commit fixes the following leak which was found while running
t0000, but is expected to also fix the same pattern of leak in all
locations that use transport_get_remote_refs():
Direct leak of 165 byte(s) in 1 object(s) allocated from:

In a future patch we plan to return the name of an unborn current branch
from deep in the callchain to a caller via a new pointer parameter that
points at a variable in the caller when the caller calls
get_remote_refs() and transport_get_remote_refs().
In preparation for that, encapsulate the existing ref_prefixes
parameter into a struct. The aforementioned unborn current branch will
go into this new struct in the future patch.

Fix some incorrect UNLEAK() annotations.
* jk/unleak-fixes:
ls-remote: simplify UNLEAK() usage
stop calling UNLEAK() before die()
|
|
We UNLEAK() the "sorting" list created by parsing command-line options
(which is essentially used until the program exits). But we do so right
before leaving the cmd_ls_remote() function, which means we have to hit
all of the exits. But the point of UNLEAK() is that it's an annotation
which doesn't impact the variable itself. We can mark it as soon as
we're done writing its value, and then we only have to do so once.
This gives us a minor code reduction, and serves as a better example of
how UNLEAK() can be used.

We eventually want to drop the argv_array name and just use strvec
consistently. There's no particular reason we have to do it all at once,
or care about interactions between converted and unconverted bits.
Because of our preprocessor compat layer, the names are interchangeable
to the compiler (so even a definition and declaration using different
names is OK).
This patch converts all of the files in builtin/ to keep the diff to a
manageable size.
The conversion was done purely mechanically with:
git ls-files '*.c' '*.h' |
xargs perl -i -pe '
s/ARGV_ARRAY/STRVEC/g;
s/argv_array/strvec/g;
'
and then selectively staging files with "git add builtin/". We'll deal
with any indentation/style fallouts separately.

ls-remote may or may not operate within a repository, and as such will
not have been initialized with the repository's hash algorithm. Even if
it were, the remote side could be using a different algorithm and we
would still want to display those refs properly. Find the hash
algorithm used by the remote side by querying the transport object and
set our hash algorithm accordingly.
Without this change, if the remote side is using SHA-256, we truncate
the refs to 40 hex characters, since that's the length of the default
hash algorithm (SHA-1).
Note that technically this is not a correct setting of the repository
hash algorithm since, if we are in a repository, it might be one of a
different hash algorithm from the remote side. However, our current
code paths don't handle multiple algorithms and won't for some time, so
this is the best we can do. We rely on the fact that ls-remote never
modifies the current repository, which is a reasonable assumption to
make.

The "--sort" parameter of for-each-ref, etc, does not handle negation,
and instead returns an error to the parse-options code. But neither
piece of code prints anything for the user, which may leave them
confused:
$ git for-each-ref --no-sort
$ echo $?
129
As the comment in the callback function notes, this probably should
clear the list, which would make it consistent with other list-like
options (i.e., anything that uses OPT_STRING_LIST currently).
Unfortunately that's a bit tricky due to the way the ref-filter code
works. But in the meantime, let's at least make the error a little less
confusing:
- switch to using PARSE_OPT_NONEG in the option definition, which will
cause the options code to produce a useful message
- since this was cut-and-pasted to four different spots, let's define
a single OPT_REF_SORT() macro that we can use everywhere
- the callback can use BUG_ON_OPT_NEG() to make sure the correct flags
are used (incidentally, this also satisfies -Wunused-parameters,
since we're now looking at "unset")
- expand the comment into a NEEDSWORK to make it clear that the
direction is right, but the details need to be worked out

"git ls-remote $there foo" was broken by recent update for the
protocol v2 and stopped showing refs that match 'foo' that are not
refs/{heads,tags}/foo, which has been fixed.
* jk/proto-v2-ref-prefix-fix:
ls-remote: pass heads/tags prefixes to transport
ls-remote: do not send ref prefixes for patterns
|
|
Unlike its arbitrary text patterns, the --heads and --tags
options to ls-remote are true prefixes. We can pass this
information to the transport code. If the v2 protocol is in
use, that will reduce the size of the ref advertisement.
Note that the test added here succeeds both before and after
the patch. This is an optimization, not a bug-fix; it's just
making sure we didn't break anything.

Since b4be74105f (ls-remote: pass ref prefixes when requesting a
remote's refs, 2018-03-15), "ls-remote foo" will pass "refs/heads/foo",
"refs/tags/foo", etc to the transport code in an attempt to let the
other side reduce the size of its advertisement.
Unfortunately this is not correct, as ls-remote patterns do not follow
the usual ref lookup rules, and are in fact tail-matched. So we could
find "refs/heads/foo" or "refs/heads/a/much/deeper/foo" or even
"refs/another/hierarchy/foo".
Since we can't pass a prefix and there's not yet a v2 extension for
matching wildcards, we must disable this feature to keep the same
behavior as v1.

Many functions which handle refs use a PATH_MAX-sized buffer
to do so. This is mostly reasonable as we have to write
loose refs into the filesystem, and at least on Linux the 4K
PATH_MAX is big enough that nobody would care. But:
1. The static PATH_MAX is not always the filesystem limit.
2. On other platforms, PATH_MAX may be much smaller.
3. As we move to alternate ref storage, we won't be bound
by filesystem limits.
Let's convert these to heap buffers so we don't have to
worry about truncation or size limits.
We may want to eventually constrain ref lengths for sanity
and to prevent malicious names, but we should do so
consistently across all platforms, and in a central place
(like the ref code).

Sometimes it's useful to know the main branch of a git repository
without actually downloading the repository. This can be done by
looking at the symrefs stored in the remote repository. Currently git
doesn't provide a simple way to show the symrefs stored on the remote
repository, even though the information is available. Add a --symref
command line argument to the ls-remote command, which shows the symrefs
in the remote repository.
While there, replace a literal tab in the format string with \t to make
it more obvious to the reader.

It's a common pattern to do:
foo = xmalloc(strlen(one) + strlen(two) + 1 + 1);
sprintf(foo, "%s %s", one, two);
(or possibly some variant with strcpy()s or a more
complicated length computation). We can switch these to use
xstrfmt, which is shorter, involves less error-prone manual
computation, and removes many sprintf and strcpy calls which
make it harder to audit the code for real buffer overflows.

After 9c00de5 (ls-remote: fall-back to default remotes when no remote
specified), when no repository is specified, ls-remote may use
the URL/remote in the config "branch.<name>.remote" or the remote
"origin"; it may not be immediately obvious to the user which was used.
In such cases, print a simple "From <URL>" line to indicate which
repository was used. This message is similar to git-fetch's, and is
printed to stderr to avoid breaking existing scripts that depend on
ls-remote's output behaviour.
It can also be disabled with -q/--quiet.

Instead of breaking execution when no remote (as specified in the
variable dest) is specified when git-ls-remote is invoked, continue on
and let remote_get() handle it.
This way, we are able to use the default remotes (eg. "origin",
branch.<name>.remote), as git-fetch, git-push, and other users of
remote_get(), do.
If no suitable remote is found, exit with a message describing the
issue, instead of just the usage text, as we do previously.
Add several tests to check that git-ls-remote handles the
no-remote-specified situation.
Also add a test that "git ls-remote <pattern>" does not work; we are
unable to guess the remote in that situation, as are git-fetch and
git-push.
In that test, we are testing for messages coming from two separate
processes, but we should be OK, because the second message is triggered
by closing the fd which must happen after the first message is printed.

which doesn't seem all that different, but not having that annoying
break in "Display all 180 possibilities?" is quite a relief.
NOTE! If you do this in a clean tree (no object files etc), or using an
editor that has auto-completion rules that ignores '*.o' files, you
won't see that annoying 'Display all 180 possibilities?' message - it
will just show the choices instead. I think bash has some cut-off
around 100 choices or something.
So the reason I see this is that I'm using an odd editory, and thus
don't have the rules to cut down on auto-completion. But you can
simulate that by using 'ls' instead, or something similar.
