2016-07-12merge: avoid "safer crlf" during recording of merge resultsLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+1
When merge_recursive() decides what the correct blob object merge result for a path should be, it uses update_file_flags() helper function to write it out to a working tree file and then calls add_cacheinfo(). The add_cacheinfo() function in turn calls make_cache_entry() to create a new cache entry to replace the higher-stage entries for the path that represents the conflict. The make_cache_entry() function calls refresh_cache_entry() to fill in the cached stat information. To mark a cache entry as up-to-date, the data is re-read from the file in the working tree, and goes through convert_to_git() conversion to be compared with the blob object name the new cache entry records. It is important to note that this happens while the higher-stage entries, which are going to be replaced with the new entry, are still in the index. Unfortunately, the convert_to_git() conversion has a misguided "safer crlf" mechanism baked in, and looks at the existing cache entry for the path to decide how to convert the contents in the working tree file. If our side (i.e. stage#2) records a text blob with CRLF in it, even when the system is configured to record LF in blobs and convert them to CRLF upon checkout (and back to LF upon checkin), the "safer crlf" mechanism stops us doing so. This especially poses a problem during a renormalizing merge, where the merge result for the path is computed by first "normalizing" the blobs involved in the merge by using convert_to_working_tree() followed by convert_to_git() with "safer crlf" disabled. The merge result that is computed correctly and fed to add_cacheinfo() via update_file_flags() does _not_ match what refresh_cache_entry() sees by converting the working tree file via convert_to_git(). We can work this around by not refreshing the new cache entry in make_cache_entry() called by add_cacheinfo(). After add_cacheinfo() adds the new entry, we can call refresh_cache_entry() on that, knowing that addition of this new cache entry would have removed the stale cache entries that had CRLF in stage #2 that were carried over before the renormalizing merge started and will not interfere with the correct recording of the result. The test update was taken from a series by Torsten Bögershausen that attempted to fix this with a different approach.

2016-07-08write_file: add format attributeLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+8
This gives us compile-time checking of our format strings, which is a good thing. I had also hoped it would help with confusing write_file() and write_file_buf(), since the former's "..." can make it match the signature of the latter. But given that the buffer for write_file_buf() is generally not a string literal, the compiler won't complain unless -Wformat-nonliteral is on, and that creates a ton of false positives elsewhere in the code base. While we're there, let's also give the function a docstring, which it never had. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2016-07-08write_file: add pointer+len variantLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+6
There are many callsites which could use write_file, but for which it is a little awkward because they have a strbuf or other pointer/len combo. Specifically: 1. write_file() takes a format string, so we have to use "%s" or "%.*s", which are ugly. 2. Using any form of "%s" does not handle embedded NULs in the output. That probably doesn't matter for our call-sites, but it's nicer not to have to worry. 3. It's less efficient; we format into another strbuf just to do the write. That's probably not measurably slow for our uses, but it's simply inelegant. We can fix this by providing a helper to write out the formatted buffer, and just calling it from write_file(). Note that we don't do the usual "complete with a newline" that write_file does. If the caller has their own buffer, there's a reasonable chance they're doing something more complicated than a single line, and they can call strbuf_complete_line() themselves. We could go even further and add strbuf_write_file(), but it doesn't save much: - write_file_buf(path, sb.buf, sb.len); + strbuf_write_file(&sb, path); It would also be somewhat asymmetric with strbuf_read_file, which actually returns errors rather than dying (and the error handling is most of the benefit of write_file() in the first place).

There are no callers left of write_file_gently(). Let's drop it, as it doesn't seem likely for new callers to be added (since its inception, the only callers who wanted the gentle form generally just died immediately themselves, and have since been converted). While we're there, let's also drop the "int" return from write_file, as it is never meaningful (in the non-gentle form, we always either die or return 0).

2016-06-07add: add --chmod=+x / --chmod=-x optionsLibravatar Edward Thomson1-5/+5
The executable bit will not be detected (and therefore will not be set) for paths in a repository with `core.filemode` set to false, though the users may still wish to add files as executable for compatibility with other users who _do_ have `core.filemode` functionality. For example, Windows users adding shell scripts may wish to add them as executable for compatibility with users on non-Windows. Although this can be done with a plumbing command (`git update-index --add --chmod=+x foo`), teaching the `git-add` command allows users to set a file executable with a command that they're already familiar with.

2016-05-27config: add a notion of "scope"Libravatar Jeff King1-0/+11
A config callback passed to git_config() doesn't know very much about the context in which it sees a variable. It can ask whether the variable comes from a file, and get the file name. But without analyzing the filename (which is hard to do accurately), it cannot tell whether it is in system-level config, user-level config, or repo-specific config. Generally this doesn't matter; the point of not passing this to the callback is that it should treat the config the same no matter where it comes from. But some programs, like upload-pack, are a special case: we should be able to run them in an untrusted repository, which means we cannot use any "dangerous" config from the repository config file (but it is OK to use it from system or user config). This patch teaches the config code to record the "scope" of each variable, and make it available inside config callbacks, similar to how we give access to the filename. The scope is the starting source for a particular parsing operation, and remains the same even if we include other files (so a .git/config which includes another file will remain CONFIG_SCOPE_REPO, as it would be similarly untrusted).

2016-05-27config: return configset value for current_config_ functionsLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+1
When 473166b (config: add 'origin_type' to config_source struct, 2016-02-19) added accessor functions for the origin type and name, it taught them only to look at the "cf" struct that is filled in while we are parsing the config. This is sufficient to make it work with git-config, which uses git_config_with_options() under the hood. That function freshly parses the config files and triggers the callback when it parses each key. Most git programs, however, use git_config(). This interface will populate a cache during the actual parse, and then serve values from the cache. Calling current_config_filename() in a callback here will find a NULL cf and produce an error. There are no such callers right now, but let's prepare for adding some by making this work. We already record source information in a struct attached to each value. We just need to make it globally available and then consult it from the accessor functions. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2016-05-11mingw: introduce the 'core.hideDotFiles' settingLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+8
On Unix (and Linux), files and directories whose names start with a dot are usually not shown by default. This convention is used by Git: the .git/ directory should be left alone by regular users, and only accessed through Git itself. On Windows, no such convention exists. Instead, there is an explicit flag to mark files or directories as hidden. In the early days, Git for Windows did not mark the .git/ directory (or for that matter, any file or directory whose name starts with a dot) hidden. This lead to quite a bit of confusion, and even loss of data. Consequently, Git for Windows introduced the core.hideDotFiles setting, with three possible values: true, false, and dotGitOnly, defaulting to marking only the .git/ directory as hidden. The rationale: users do not need to access .git/ directly, and indeed (as was demonstrated) should not really see that directory, either. However, not all dot files should be hidden by default, as e.g. Eclipse does not show them (and the user would therefore be unable to see, say, a .gitattributes file). In over five years since the last attempt to bring this patch into core Git, a slightly buggy version of this patch has served Git for Windows' users well: no single report indicated problems with the hidden .git/ directory, and the stream of problems caused by the previously non-hidden .git/ directory simply stopped. The bugs have been fixed during the process of getting this patch upstream. Note that there is a funny quirk we have to pay attention to when creating hidden files: we use Win32's _wopen() function which transmogrifies its arguments and hands off to Win32's CreateFile() function. That latter function errors out with ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED (the equivalent of EACCES) when the equivalent of the O_CREAT flag was passed and the file attributes (including the hidden flag) do not match an existing file's. And _wopen() accepts no parameter that would be transmogrified into said hidden flag. Therefore, we simply try again without O_CREAT. A slightly different method is required for our fopen()/freopen() function as we cannot even *remove* the implicit O_CREAT flag. Therefore, we briefly mark existing files as unhidden when opening them via fopen()/freopen(). The ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED error can also be triggered by opening a file that is marked as a system file (which is unlikely to be tracked in Git), and by trying to create a file that has *just* been deleted and is awaiting the last open handles to be released (which would be handled better by the "Try again?" logic, a story for a different patch series, though). In both cases, it does not matter much if we try again without the O_CREAT flag, read: it does not hurt, either.

Change the hardcoded lookup for .git/hooks/* to optionally lookup in $(git config core.hooksPath)/* instead. This is essentially a more intrusive version of the git-init ability to specify hooks on init time via init templates. The difference between that facility and this feature is that this can be set up after the fact via e.g. ~/.gitconfig or /etc/gitconfig to apply for all your personal repositories, or all repositories on the system.

2016-03-11setup: refactor repo format reading and verificationLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+24
When we want to know if we're in a git repository of reasonable vintage, we can call check_repository_format_gently(), which does three things: 1. Reads the config from the .git/config file. 2. Verifies that the version info we read is sane. 3. Writes some global variables based on this. There are a few things we could improve here. One is that steps 1 and 3 happen together. So if the verification in step 2 fails, we still clobber the global variables. This is especially bad if we go on to try another repository directory; we may end up with a state of mixed config variables. The second is there's no way to ask about the repository version for anything besides the main repository we're in. git-init wants to do this, and it's possible that we would want to start doing so for submodules (e.g., to find out which ref backend they're using). We can improve both by splitting the first two steps into separate functions. Now check_repository_format_gently() calls out to steps 1 and 2, and does 3 only if step 2 succeeds. Note that the public interface for read_repository_format() and what check_repository_format_gently() needs from it are not quite the same, leading us to have an extra read_repository_format_1() helper. The extra needs from check_repository_format_gently() will go away in a future patch, and we can simplify this then to just the public interface.

2016-03-06setup: make startup_info available everywhereLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
Commit a60645f (setup: remember whether repository was found, 2010-08-05) introduced the startup_info structure, which records some parts of the setup_git_directory() process (notably, whether we actually found a repository or not). One of the uses of this data is for functions to behave appropriately based on whether we are in a repo. But the startup_info struct is just a pointer to storage provided by the main program, and the only program that sets it up is the git.c wrapper. Thus builtins have access to startup_info, but externally linked programs do not. Worse, library code which is accessible from both has to be careful about accessing startup_info. This can be used to trigger a die("BUG") via get_sha1(): $ git fast-import <<-\EOF tag foo from HEAD:./whatever EOF fatal: BUG: startup_info struct is not initialized. Obviously that's fairly nonsensical input to feed to fast-import, but we should never hit a die("BUG"). And there may be other ways to trigger it if other non-builtins resolve sha1s. So let's point the storage for startup_info to a static variable in setup.c, making it available to all users of the library code. We _could_ turn startup_info into a regular extern struct, but doing so would mean tweaking all of the existing use sites. So let's leave the pointer indirection in place. We can, however, drop any checks for NULL, as they will always be false (and likewise, we can drop the test covering this case, which was a rather artificial situation using one of the test-* programs).

The configuration system has been taught to phrase where it found a bad configuration variable in a better way in its error messages. "git config" learnt a new "--show-origin" option to indicate where the values come from. * ls/config-origin: config: add '--show-origin' option to print the origin of a config value config: add 'origin_type' to config_source struct rename git_config_from_buf to git_config_from_mem t: do not hide Git's exit code in tests using 'nul_to_q'
2016-02-25nth_packed_object_offset: bounds-check extended offsetLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+10
If a pack .idx file has a corrupted offset for an object, we may try to access an offset in the .idx or .pack file that is larger than the file's size. For the .pack case, we have use_pack() to protect us, which realizes the access is out of bounds. But if the corrupted value asks us to look in the .idx file's secondary 64-bit offset table, we blindly add it to the mmap'd index data and access arbitrary memory. We can fix this with a simple bounds-check compared to the size we found when we opened the .idx file. Note that there's similar code in index-pack that is triggered only during "index-pack --verify". To support both, we pull the bounds-check into a separate function, which dies when it sees a corrupted file. It would be nice if we could return an error, so that the pack code could try to find a good copy of the object elsewhere. Currently nth_packed_object_offset doesn't have any way to return an error, but it could probably use "0" as a sentinel value (since no object can start there). This is the minimal fix, and we can improve the resilience later on top. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2016-02-22config: rename git_config_set_or_die to git_config_setLibravatar Patrick Steinhardt1-4/+4
Rename git_config_set_or_die functions to git_config_set, leading to the new default behavior of dying whenever a configuration error occurs. By now all callers that shall die on error have been transitioned to the _or_die variants, thus making this patch a simple rename of the functions.

2016-02-22config: rename git_config_set to git_config_set_gentlyLibravatar Patrick Steinhardt1-5/+5
The desired default behavior for `git_config_set` is to die whenever an error occurs. Dying is the default for a lot of internal functions when failures occur and is in this case the right thing to do for most callers as otherwise we might run into inconsistent repositories without noticing. As some code may rely on the actual return values for `git_config_set` we still require the ability to invoke these functions without aborting. Rename the existing `git_config_set` functions to `git_config_set_gently` to keep them available for those callers.

2016-02-17pager: factor out a helper to prepare a child process to run the pagerLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+3
When running a pager, we need to run the program git_pager() gave us, but we need to make sure we spawn it via the shell (i.e. it is valid to say PAGER='less -S', for example) and give default values to $LESS and $LV environment variables. Factor out these details to a separate helper function. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2016-02-16config: introduce set_or_die wrappersLibravatar Patrick Steinhardt1-0/+4
A lot of call-sites for the existing family of `git_config_set` functions do not check for errors that may occur, e.g. when the configuration file is locked. In many cases we simply want to die when such a situation arises. Introduce wrappers that will cause the program to die in those cases. These wrappers are temporary only to ease the transition to let `git_config_set` die by default. They will be removed later on when `git_config_set` itself has been replaced by `git_config_set_gently`.
