2017-05-08winansi: avoid buffer overrunLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+5
When we could not convert the UTF-8 sequence into Unicode for writing to the Console, we should not try to write an insanely-long sequence of invalid wide characters (mistaking the negative return value for an unsigned length).

2017-05-08winansi: avoid use of uninitialized valueLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+7
To initialize the foreground color attributes of "plain text", our ANSI emulation tries to infer them from the currently attached console while running the is_console() function. This function first tries to detect any console attached to stdout, then it is called with stderr. If neither stdout nor stderr has any console attached, it does not actually matter what we use for "plain text" attributes, as we never need to output any text to any console in that case. However, after working on stdout and stderr, is_console() is called with stdin, and it still tries to initialize the "plain text" attributes if they had not been initialized earlier. In this case, we cannot detect any attributes, and we used an uninitialized value for them. Naturally, Coverity complained about this use case because it could not reason about the code deeply enough to figure out that we do not even use those attributes in that case. Let's just initialize the value to 0 in that case, both to avoid future Coverity reports, and to help catch future regressions in case anybody changes the order of the is_console() calls (which would make the text black on black).

2017-02-14mingw: make stderr unbuffered againLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+4
When removing the hack for isatty(), we actually removed more than just an isatty() hack: we removed the hack where internal data structures of the MSVC runtime are modified in order to redirect stdout/stderr. Instead of using that hack (that does not work with newer versions of the runtime, anyway), we replaced it by reopening the respective file descriptors. What we forgot was to mark stderr as unbuffered again. Reported by Hannes Sixt. Fixed with Jeff Hostetler's assistance.

2017-01-23compat: add qsort_s()Libravatar René Scharfe1-0/+69
The function qsort_s() was introduced with C11 Annex K; it provides the ability to pass a context pointer to the comparison function, supports the convention of using a NULL pointer for an empty array and performs a few safety checks. Add an implementation based on compat/qsort.c for platforms that lack a native standards-compliant qsort_s() (i.e. basically everyone). It doesn't perform the full range of possible checks: It uses size_t instead of rsize_t and doesn't check nmemb and size against RSIZE_MAX because we probably don't have the restricted size type defined. For the same reason it returns int instead of errno_t. Signed-off-by: Rene Scharfe <l.s.r@web.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2016-12-22mingw: fix colourization on Cygwin pseudo terminalsLibravatar Alan Davies1-2/+6
Git only colours the output and uses pagination if isatty() returns 1. MSYS2 and Cygwin emulate pseudo terminals via named pipes, meaning that isatty() returns 0. f7f90e0f4f (mingw: make isatty() recognize MSYS2's pseudo terminals (/dev/pty*), 2016-04-27) fixed this for MSYS2 terminals, but not for Cygwin. The named pipes that Cygwin and MSYS2 use are very similar. MSYS2 PTY pipes are called 'msys-*-pty*' and Cygwin uses 'cygwin-*-pty*'. This commit modifies the existing check to allow both MSYS2 and Cygwin PTY pipes to be identified as TTYs. Note that pagination is still broken when running Git for Windows from within Cygwin, as MSYS2's less.exe is spawned (and does not like to interact with Cygwin's PTY).

2016-12-22mingw: adjust is_console() to work with stdinLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-1/+5
When determining whether a handle corresponds to a *real* Win32 Console (as opposed to, say, a character device such as /dev/null), we use the GetConsoleOutputBufferInfo() function as a tell-tale. However, that does not work for *input* handles associated with a console. Let's just use the GetConsoleMode() function for input handles, and since it does not work on output handles fall back to the previous method for those. This patch prepares for using is_console() instead of my previous misguided attempt in cbb3f3c9b1 (mingw: intercept isatty() to handle /dev/null as Git expects it, 2016-12-11) that broke everything on Windows.

2016-12-11mingw: intercept isatty() to handle /dev/null as Git expects itLibravatar Johannes Schindelin2-0/+36
When Git's source code calls isatty(), it really asks whether the respective file descriptor is connected to an interactive terminal. Windows' _isatty() function, however, determines whether the file descriptor is associated with a character device. And NUL, Windows' equivalent of /dev/null, is a character device. Which means that for years, Git mistakenly detected an associated interactive terminal when being run through the test suite, which almost always redirects stdin, stdout and stderr to /dev/null. This bug only became obvious, and painfully so, when the new bisect--helper entered the `pu` branch and made the automatic build & test time out because t6030 was waiting for an answer.

The tempfile (hence its user lockfile) API lets the caller to open a file descriptor to a temporary file, write into it and then finalize it by first closing the filehandle and then either removing or renaming the temporary file. When the process spawns a subprocess after obtaining the file descriptor, and if the subprocess has not exited when the attempt to remove or rename is made, the last step fails on Windows, because the subprocess has the file descriptor still open. Open tempfile with O_CLOEXEC flag to avoid this (on Windows, this is mapped to O_NOINHERIT). * bw/mingw-avoid-inheriting-fd-to-lockfile: mingw: ensure temporary file handles are not inherited by child processes t6026-merge-attr: child processes must not inherit index.lock handles

Move our implementation of strdup(3) out of compat/nedmalloc/ and allow it to be used independently from USE_NED_ALLOCATOR. The original nedmalloc doesn't come with strdup() and doesn't need it. Only _users_ of nedmalloc need it, which was added when we imported it to our compat/ hierarchy. This reduces the difference of our copy of nedmalloc from the original, making it easier to update, and allows for easier testing and reusing of our version of strdup().

2016-08-23mingw: ensure temporary file handles are not inherited by child processesLibravatar Ben Wijen1-0/+4
When the index is locked and child processes inherit the handle to said lock and the parent process wants to remove the lock before the child process exits, on Windows there is a problem: it won't work because files cannot be deleted if a process holds a handle on them. The symptom: Rename from 'xxx/.git/index.lock' to 'xxx/.git/index' failed. Should I try again? (y/n) Spawning child processes with bInheritHandles==FALSE would not work because no file handles would be inherited, not even the hStdXxx handles in STARTUPINFO (stdin/stdout/stderr). Opening every file with O_NOINHERIT does not work, either, as e.g. git-upload-pack expects inherited file handles. This leaves us with the only way out: creating temp files with the O_NOINHERIT flag. This flag is Windows-specific, however. For our purposes, it is equivalent to O_CLOEXEC (which does not exist on Windows), so let's just open temporary files with the O_CLOEXEC flag and map that flag to O_NOINHERIT on Windows. As Eric Wong pointed out, we need to be careful to handle the case where the Linux headers used to compile Git support O_CLOEXEC but the Linux kernel used to run Git does not: it returns an EINVAL. This fixes the test that we just introduced to demonstrate the problem.

Since 4804aab (help (Windows): Display HTML in default browser using Windows' shell API, 2008-07-13), Git for Windows used to call `ShellExecute()` to launch the default Windows handler for `.html` files.

2016-08-05nedmalloc: work around overzealous GCC 6 warningLibravatar René Scharfe1-5/+4
With GCC 6, the strdup() function is declared with the "nonnull" attribute, stating that it is not allowed to pass a NULL value as parameter. In nedmalloc()'s reimplementation of strdup(), Postel's Law is heeded and NULL parameters are handled gracefully. GCC 6 complains about that now because it thinks that NULL cannot be passed to strdup() anyway. Because the callers in this project of strdup() must be prepared to call any implementation of strdup() supplied by the platform, so it is pointless to pretend that it is OK to call it with NULL. Remove the conditional based on NULL-ness of the input; this squelches the warning. Check the return value of malloc() instead to make sure we actually got the memory to write to.

Since commit 56a1a3ab ("Silence GCC's \"cast of pointer to integer of a different size\" warning", 26-10-2015), sparse has been issuing a macro redefinition warning for the SIZE_MAX macro. However, gcc did not issue any such warning. After commit 56a1a3ab, in terms of the order of #includes and #defines, the code looked something like: $ cat -n junk.c 1 #include <stddef.h> 2 3 #define SIZE_MAX ((size_t) -1) 4 5 #include <stdint.h> 6 7 int main(int argc, char *argv[]) 8 { 9 return 0; 10 } $ $ gcc junk.c $ However, if you compile that file with -Wsystem-headers, then it will also issue a warning.

Commit 56a1a3ab added an #include of <stdint.h> to the regcomp.c file, which results in the redefinition, since this is included after the regex_internal.h header. This header file contains a 'fallback' definition for SIZE_MAX, in order to support systems which do not have the <stdint.h> header (the HAVE_STDINT_H macro is not defined). In order to suppress the warning, we move the #include of <stdint.h> from regcomp.c to the start of the compilation unit, close to the top of regex.c, prior to the #include of the regex_internal.h header.

MSYS2 emulates pseudo terminals via named pipes, and isatty() returns 0 for such file descriptors. Therefore, some interactive functionality (such as launching a pager, asking if a failed unlink should be repeated etc.) doesn't work when run in a terminal emulator that uses MSYS2's ptys (such as mintty). However, MSYS2 uses special names for its pty pipes ('msys-*-pty*'), which allows us to distinguish them from normal piped input / output. On startup, check if stdin / stdout / stderr are connected to such pipes using the NtQueryObject API from NTDll.dll. If the names match, adjust the flags in MSVCRT's ioinfo structure accordingly.

As the `mark_as_git_dir()` function is not needed at all anymore (it was used originally to support the core.hideDotFiles = gitDirOnly setting, but we now use a different method to support that case), let's just remove it.

2016-05-11mingw: introduce the 'core.hideDotFiles' settingLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+74
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.
