2021-02-10commit: allow parsing arbitrary buffers with headersLibravatar brian m. carlson1-4/+16
Currently only commits are signed with headers. However, in the future, we'll also sign tags with headers as well. Let's refactor out a function called parse_buffer_signed_by_header which does exactly that. In addition, since we'll want to sign things other than commits this way, let's call the function sign_with_header instead of do_sign_commit.

2021-02-10gpg-interface: improve interface for parsing tagsLibravatar brian m. carlson1-3/+6
We have a function which parses a buffer with a signature at the end, parse_signature, and this function is used for signed tags. However, we'll need to store values for multiple algorithms, and we'll do this by using a header for the non-default algorithm. Adjust the parse_signature interface to store the parsed data in two strbufs and turn the existing function into parse_signed_buffer. The latter is still used in places where we know we always have a signed buffer, such as push certs. Adjust all the callers to deal with this new interface.

When we are looking up an oid in an array, we obviously don't need to write to the array.

2021-01-28hash_pos(): convert to oid_pos()Libravatar Jeff King1-5/+5
All of our callers are actually looking up an object_id, not a bare hash. Likewise, the arrays they are looking in are actual arrays of object_id (not just raw bytes of hashes, as we might find in a pack .idx; those are handled by bsearch_hash()). Using an object_id gives us more type safety, and makes the callers slightly shorter. It also gets rid of the word "sha1" from several access functions, though we could obviously also rename those with s/sha1/hash/.

2021-01-18commit: ignore additional signatures when parsing signed commitsLibravatar brian m. carlson1-20/+34
When we create a commit with multiple signatures, neither of these signatures includes the other. Consequently, when we produce the payload which has been signed so we can verify the commit, we must strip off any other signatures, or the payload will differ from what was signed. Do so, and in preparation for verifying with multiple algorithms, pass the algorithm we want to verify into parse_signed_commit.

2020-10-20Documentation: stylistically normalize references to Signed-off-by:Libravatar Bradley M. Kuhn1-1/+1
Ted reported an old typo in the git-commit.txt and merge-options.txt. Namely, the phrase "Signed-off-by line" was used without either a definite nor indefinite article. Upon examination, it seems that the documentation (including items in Documentation/, but also option help strings) have been quite inconsistent on usage when referring to `Signed-off-by`. First, very few places used a definite or indefinite article with the phrase "Signed-off-by line", but that was the initial typo that led to this investigation. So, normalize using either an indefinite or definite article consistently. The original phrasing, in Commit 3f971fc425b (Documentation updates, 2005-08-14), is "Add Signed-off-by line". Commit 6f855371a53 (Add --signoff, --check, and long option-names. 2005-12-09) switched to using "Add `Signed-off-by:` line", but didn't normalize the former commit to match. Later commits seem to have cut and pasted from one or the other, which is likely how the usage became so inconsistent. Junio stated on the git mailing list in <xmqqy2k1dfoh.fsf@gitster.c.googlers.com> a preference to leave off the colon. Thus, prefer `Signed-off-by` (with backticks) for the documentation files and Signed-off-by (without backticks) for option help strings. Additionally, Junio argued that "trailer" is now the standard term to refer to `Signed-off-by`, saying that "becomes plenty clear that we are not talking about any random line in the log message". As such, prefer "trailer" over "line" anywhere the former word fits. However, leave alone those few places in documentation that use Signed-off-by to refer to the process (rather than the specific trailer), or in places where mail headers are generally discussed in comparison with Signed-off-by.

2020-09-09Merge branch 'jt/interpret-branch-name-fallback'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
"git status" has trouble showing where it came from by interpreting reflog entries that recordcertain events, e.g. "checkout @{u}", and gives a hard/fatal error. Even though it inherently is impossible to give a correct answer because the reflog entries lose some information (e.g. "@{u}" does not record what branch the user was on hence which branch 'the upstream' needs to be computed, and even if the record were available, the relationship between branches may have changed), at least hide the error to allow "status" show its output. * jt/interpret-branch-name-fallback: wt-status: tolerate dangling marks refs: move dwim_ref() to header file sha1-name: replace unsigned int with option struct

2020-09-02wt-status: tolerate dangling marksLibravatar Jonathan Tan1-1/+1
When a user checks out the upstream branch of HEAD, the upstream branch not being a local branch, and then runs "git status", like this: git clone $URL client cd client git checkout @{u} git status no status is printed, but instead an error message: fatal: HEAD does not point to a branch (This error message when running "git branch" persists even after checking out other things - it only stops after checking out a branch.) This is because "git status" reads the reflog when determining the "HEAD detached" message, and thus attempts to DWIM "@{u}", but that doesn't work because HEAD no longer points to a branch. Therefore, when calculating the status of a worktree, tolerate dangling marks. This is done by adding an additional parameter to dwim_ref() and repo_dwim_ref().

The "argc" and "argv" names made sense when the struct was argv_array, but now they're just confusing. Let's rename them to "nr" (which we use for counts elsewhere) and "v" (which is rather terse, but reads well when combined with typical variable names like "args.v"). Note that we have to update all of the callers immediately. Playing tricks with the preprocessor is hard here, because we wouldn't want to rewrite unrelated tokens.

2020-07-28strvec: convert more callers away from argv_array nameLibravatar Jeff King1-4/+4
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 remaining files from the first half of the alphabet, 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 '[abcdefghjkl]*'".

2020-07-09Merge branch 'tb/fix-persistent-shallow' into masterLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+2
When "fetch.writeCommitGraph" configuration is set in a shallow repository and a fetch moves the shallow boundary, we wrote out broken commit-graph files that do not match the reality, which has been corrected. * tb/fix-persistent-shallow: commit.c: don't persist substituted parents when unshallowing
2020-07-08commit.c: don't persist substituted parents when unshallowingLibravatar Taylor Blau1-0/+2
Since 37b9dcabfc (shallow.c: use '{commit,rollback}_shallow_file', 2020-04-22), Git knows how to reset stat-validity checks for the $GIT_DIR/shallow file, allowing it to change between a shallow and non-shallow state in the same process (e.g., in the case of 'git fetch --unshallow'). However, when $GIT_DIR/shallow changes, Git does not alter or remove any grafts (nor substituted parents) in memory. This comes up in a "git fetch --unshallow" with fetch.writeCommitGraph set to true. Ordinarily in a shallow repository (and before 37b9dcabfc, even in this case), commit_graph_compatible() would return false, indicating that the repository should not be used to write a commit-graphs (since commit-graph files cannot represent a shallow history). But since 37b9dcabfc, in an --unshallow operation that check succeeds. Thus even though the repository isn't shallow any longer (that is, we have all of the objects), the in-core representation of those objects still has munged parents at the shallow boundaries. When the commit-graph write proceeds, we use the incorrect parentage, producing wrong results. There are two ways for a user to work around this: either (1) set 'fetch.writeCommitGraph' to 'false', or (2) drop the commit-graph after unshallowing. One way to fix this would be to reset the parsed object pool entirely (flushing the cache and thus preventing subsequent reads from modifying their parents) after unshallowing. That would produce a problem when callers have a now-stale reference to the old pool, and so this patch implements a different approach. Instead, attach a new bit to the pool, 'substituted_parent', which indicates if the repository *ever* stored a commit which had its parents modified (i.e., the shallow boundary prior to unshallowing). This bit needs to be sticky because all reads subsequent to modifying a commit's parents are unreliable when unshallowing. Modify the check in 'commit_graph_compatible' to take this bit into account, and correctly avoid generating commit-graphs in this case, thus solving the bug.

2020-01-15gpg-interface: add minTrustLevel as a configuration optionLibravatar Hans Jerry Illikainen1-5/+7
Previously, signature verification for merge and pull operations checked if the key had a trust-level of either TRUST_NEVER or TRUST_UNDEFINED in verify_merge_signature(). If that was the case, the process die()d. The other code paths that did signature verification relied entirely on the return code from check_commit_signature(). And signatures made with a good key, irregardless of its trust level, was considered valid by check_commit_signature(). This difference in behavior might induce users to erroneously assume that the trust level of a key in their keyring is always considered by Git, even for operations where it is not (e.g. during a verify-commit or verify-tag). The way it worked was by gpg-interface.c storing the result from the key/signature status *and* the lowest-two trust levels in the `result` member of the signature_check structure (the last of these status lines that were encountered got written to `result`). These are documented in GPG under the subsection `General status codes` and `Key related`, respectively [1]. The GPG documentation says the following on the TRUST_ status codes [1]: """ These are several similar status codes: - TRUST_UNDEFINED <error_token> - TRUST_NEVER <error_token> - TRUST_MARGINAL [0 [<validation_model>]] - TRUST_FULLY [0 [<validation_model>]] - TRUST_ULTIMATE [0 [<validation_model>]] For good signatures one of these status lines are emitted to indicate the validity of the key used to create the signature. The error token values are currently only emitted by gpgsm. """ My interpretation is that the trust level is conceptionally different from the validity of the key and/or signature. That seems to also have been the assumption of the old code in check_signature() where a result of 'G' (as in GOODSIG) and 'U' (as in TRUST_NEVER or TRUST_UNDEFINED) were both considered a success. The two cases where a result of 'U' had special meaning were in verify_merge_signature() (where this caused git to die()) and in format_commit_one() (where it affected the output of the %G? format specifier). I think it makes sense to refactor the processing of TRUST_ status lines such that users can configure a minimum trust level that is enforced globally, rather than have individual parts of git (e.g. merge) do it themselves (except for a grace period with backward compatibility). I also think it makes sense to not store the trust level in the same struct member as the key/signature status. While the presence of a TRUST_ status code does imply that the signature is good (see the first paragraph in the included snippet above), as far as I can tell, the order of the status lines from GPG isn't well-defined; thus it would seem plausible that the trust level could be overwritten with the key/signature status if they were stored in the same member of the signature_check structure. This patch introduces a new configuration option: gpg.minTrustLevel. It consolidates trust-level verification to gpg-interface.c and adds a new `trust_level` member to the signature_check structure. Backward-compatibility is maintained by introducing a special case in verify_merge_signature() such that if no user-configurable gpg.minTrustLevel is set, then the old behavior of rejecting TRUST_UNDEFINED and TRUST_NEVER is enforced. If, on the other hand, gpg.minTrustLevel is set, then that value overrides the old behavior. Similarly, the %G? format specifier will continue show 'U' for signatures made with a key that has a trust level of TRUST_UNDEFINED or TRUST_NEVER, even though the 'U' character no longer exist in the `result` member of the signature_check structure. A new format specifier, %GT, is also introduced for users that want to show all possible trust levels for a signature. Another approach would have been to simply drop the trust-level requirement in verify_merge_signature(). This would also have made the behavior consistent with other parts of git that perform signature verification. However, requiring a minimum trust level for signing keys does seem to have a real-world use-case. For example, the build system used by the Qubes OS project currently parses the raw output from verify-tag in order to assert a minimum trust level for keys used to sign git tags [2].

2019-10-28commit, tag: don't set parsed bit for parse failuresLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+13
If we can't parse a commit, then parse_commit() will return an error code. But it _also_ sets the "parsed" flag, which tells us not to bother trying to re-parse the object. That means that subsequent parses have no idea that the information in the struct may be bogus. I.e., doing this: parse_commit(commit); ... if (parse_commit(commit) < 0) die("commit is broken"); will never trigger the die(). The second parse_commit() will see the "parsed" flag and quietly return success. There are two obvious ways to fix this: 1. Stop setting "parsed" until we've successfully parsed. 2. Keep a second "corrupt" flag to indicate that we saw an error (and when the parsed flag is set, return 0/-1 depending on the corrupt flag). This patch does option 1. The obvious downside versus option 2 is that we might continually re-parse a broken object. But in practice, corruption like this is rare, and we typically die() or return an error in the caller. So it's OK not to worry about optimizing for corruption. And it's much simpler: we don't need to use an extra bit in the object struct, and callers which check the "parsed" flag don't need to learn about the corrupt bit, too. There's no new test here, because this case is already covered in t5318. Note that we do need to update the expected message there, because we now detect the problem in the return from "parse_commit()", and not with a separate check for a NULL tree. In fact, we can now ditch that explicit tree check entirely, as we're covered robustly by this change (and the previous recent change to treat a NULL tree as a parse error). We'll also give tags the same treatment. I don't know offhand of any cases where the problem can be triggered (it implies somebody ignoring a parse error earlier in the process), but consistently returning an error should cause the least surprise.

2019-10-21parse_commit_buffer(): treat lookup_tree() failure as parse errorLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+7
If parsing a commit yields a valid tree oid, but we've seen that same oid as a non-tree in the same process, the resulting commit struct will end up with a NULL tree pointer, but not otherwise report a parsing failure. That's perhaps convenient for callers which want to operate on even partially corrupt commits (e.g., by still looking at the parents). But it leaves a potential trap for most callers, who now have to manually check for a NULL tree. Most do not, and it's likely that there are possible segfaults lurking. I say "possible" because there are many candidates, and I don't think it's worth following through on reproducing them when we can just fix them all in one spot. And certainly we _have_ seen real-world cases, such as the one fixed by 806278dead (commit-graph.c: handle corrupt/missing trees, 2019-09-05). Note that we can't quite drop the check in the caller added by that commit yet, as there's some subtlety with repeated parsings (which will be addressed in a future commit).

2019-10-21parse_commit_buffer(): treat lookup_commit() failure as parse errorLibravatar Jeff King1-3/+8
While parsing the parents of a commit, if we are able to parse an actual oid but lookup_commit() fails on it (because we previously saw it in this process as a different object type), we silently omit the parent and do not report any error to the caller. The caller has no way of knowing this happened, because even an empty parent list is a valid parse result. As a result, it's possible to fool our "rev-list" connectivity check into accepting a corrupted set of objects. There's a test for this case already in t6102, but unfortunately it has a slight error. It creates a broken commit with a parent line pointing to a blob, and then checks that rev-list notices the problem in two cases: 1. the "lone" case: we traverse the broken commit by itself (here we try to actually load the blob from disk and find out that it's not a commit) 2. the "seen" case: we parse the blob earlier in the process, and then when calling lookup_commit() we realize immediately that it's not a commit The "seen" variant for this test mistakenly parsed another commit instead of the blob, meaning that we were actually just testing the "lone" case again. Changing that reveals the breakage (and shows that this fixes it). Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2019-09-09commit-graph.c: handle corrupt/missing treesLibravatar Taylor Blau1-1/+2
Apply similar treatment as in the previous commit to handle an unchecked call to 'get_commit_tree_oid()'. Previously, a NULL return value from this function would be immediately dereferenced with '->hash', and then cause a segfault. Before dereferencing to access the 'hash' member, check the return value of 'get_commit_tree_oid()' to make sure that it is not NULL. To make this check correct, a related change is also needed in 'commit.c', which is to check the return value of 'get_commit_tree' before taking its address. If 'get_commit_tree' returns NULL, we encounter an undefined behavior when taking the address of the return value of 'get_commit_tree' and then taking '->object.oid'. (On my system, this is memory address 0x8, which is obviously wrong). Fix this by making sure that 'get_commit_tree' returns something non-NULL before digging through a structure that is not there, thus preventing a segfault down the line in the commit graph code.
