2020-01-15built-in add -p: handle Escape sequences in interactive.singlekey modeLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-1/+55
This recapitulates part of b5cc003253c8 (add -i: ignore terminal escape sequences, 2011-05-17): add -i: ignore terminal escape sequences On the author's terminal, the up-arrow input sequence is ^[[A, and thus fat-fingering an up-arrow into 'git checkout -p' is quite dangerous: git-add--interactive.perl will ignore the ^[ and [ characters and happily treat A as "discard everything". As a band-aid fix, use Term::Cap to get all terminal capabilities. Then use the heuristic that any capability value that starts with ^[ (i.e., \e in perl) must be a key input sequence. Finally, given an input that starts with ^[, read more characters until we have read a full escape sequence, then return that to the caller. We use a timeout of 0.5 seconds on the subsequent reads to avoid getting stuck if the user actually input a lone ^[. Since none of the currently recognized keys start with ^[, the net result is that the sequence as a whole will be ignored and the help displayed. Note that we leave part for later which uses "Term::Cap to get all terminal capabilities", for several reasons: 1. it is actually not really necessary, as the timeout of 0.5 seconds should be plenty sufficient to catch Escape sequences, 2. it is cleaner to keep the change to special-case Escape sequences separate from the change that reads all terminal capabilities to speed things up, and 3. in practice, relying on the terminal capabilities is a bit overrated, as the information could be incomplete, or plain wrong. For example, in this developer's tmux sessions, the terminal capabilities claim that the "cursor up" sequence is ^[M, but the actual sequence produced by the "cursor up" key is ^[[A.

2020-01-15terminal: add a new function to read a single keystrokeLibravatar Johannes Schindelin2-0/+58
Typically, input on the command-line is line-based. It is actually not really easy to get single characters (or better put: keystrokes). We provide two implementations here: - One that handles `/dev/tty` based systems as well as native Windows. The former uses the `tcsetattr()` function to put the terminal into "raw mode", which allows us to read individual keystrokes, one by one. The latter uses `stty.exe` to do the same, falling back to direct Win32 Console access. Thanks to the refactoring leading up to this commit, this is a single function, with the platform-specific details hidden away in conditionally-compiled code blocks. - A fall-back which simply punts and reads back an entire line. Note that the function writes the keystroke into an `strbuf` rather than a `char`, in preparation for reading Escape sequences (e.g. when the user hit an arrow key). This is also required for UTF-8 sequences in case the keystroke corresponds to a non-ASCII letter.

2020-01-15terminal: accommodate Git for Windows' default terminalLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+50
Git for Windows' Git Bash runs in MinTTY by default, which does not have a Win32 Console instance, but uses MSYS2 pseudo terminals instead. This is a problem, as Git for Windows does not want to use the MSYS2 emulation layer for Git itself, and therefore has no direct way to interact with that pseudo terminal. As a workaround, use the `stty` utility (which is included in Git for Windows, and which *is* an MSYS2 program, so it knows how to deal with the pseudo terminal). Note: If Git runs in a regular CMD or PowerShell window, there *is* a regular Win32 Console to work with. This is not a problem for the MSYS2 `stty`: it copes with this scenario just fine. Also note that we introduce support for more bits than would be necessary for a mere `disable_echo()` here, in preparation for the upcoming `enable_non_canonical()` function.

2019-10-06msvc: work around a bug in GetEnvironmentVariable()Libravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+2
The return value of that function is 0 both for variables that are unset, as well as for variables whose values are empty. To discern those two cases, one has to call `GetLastError()`, whose return value is `ERROR_ENVVAR_NOT_FOUND` and `ERROR_SUCCESS`, respectively. Except that it is not actually set to `ERROR_SUCCESS` in the latter case, apparently, but the last error value seems to be simply unchanged. To work around this, let's just re-set the last error value just before inspecting the environment variable. This fixes a problem that triggers failures in t3301-notes.sh (where we try to override config settings by passing empty values for certain environment variables). This problem is hidden in the MINGW build by the fact that older MSVC runtimes (such as the one used by MINGW builds) have a `calloc()` that re-sets the last error value in case of success, while newer runtimes set the error value only if `NULL` is returned by that function.

2019-10-06msvc: handle DEVELOPER=1Libravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+46
We frequently build Git using the `DEVELOPER=1` make setting as a shortcut to enable all kinds of more stringent compiler warnings.

2019-10-06msvc: ignore some libraries when linkingLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-1/+1
To build with MSVC, we "translate" GCC options to MSVC options, and part of those options refer to the libraries to link into the final executable. Currently, this part looks somewhat like this on Windows: -lcurl -lnghttp2 -lidn2 -lssl -lcrypto -lssl -lcrypto -lgdi32 -lcrypt32 -lwldap32 -lz -lws2_32 -lexpat Some of those are direct dependencies (such as curl and ssl) and others are indirect (nghttp2 and idn2, for example, are dependencies of curl, but need to be linked in for reasons). We already handle the direct dependencies, e.g. `-liconv` is already handled as adding `libiconv.lib` to the list of libraries to link against. Let's just ignore the remaining `-l*` options so that MSVC does not have to warn us that it ignored e.g. the `/lnghttp2` option. We do that by extending the clause that already "eats" the `-R*` options to also eat the `-l*` options.

2019-10-02Move git_sort(), a stable sort, into into libgit.aLibravatar Johannes Schindelin2-70/+3
The `qsort()` function is not guaranteed to be stable, i.e. it does not promise to maintain the order of items it is told to consider equal. In contrast, the `git_sort()` function we carry in `compat/qsort.c` _is_ stable, by virtue of implementing a merge sort algorithm. In preparation for using a stable sort in Git's rename detection, move the stable sort into `libgit.a` so that it is compiled in unconditionally, and rename it to `git_stable_qsort()`. Note: this also makes the hack obsolete that was introduced in fe21c6b285d (mingw: reencode environment variables on the fly (UTF-16 <-> UTF-8), 2018-10-30), where we included `compat/qsort.c` directly in `compat/mingw.c` to use the stable sort.

In 554544276a (*.[ch]: remove extern from function declarations using spatch, 2019-04-29), we removed externs from function declarations using spatch but we intentionally excluded files under compat/ since some are directly copied from an upstream and we should avoid churning them so that manually merging future updates will be simpler. In the last commit, we determined the files which taken from an upstream so we can exclude them and run spatch on the remainder.

2019-08-26mingw: fix launching of externals from Unicode pathsLibravatar Adam Roben1-4/+11
If Git were installed in a path containing non-ASCII characters, commands such as `git am` and `git submodule`, which are implemented as externals, would fail to launch with the following error: > fatal: 'am' appears to be a git command, but we were not > able to execute it. Maybe git-am is broken? This was due to lookup_prog not being Unicode-aware. It was somehow missed in 85faec9d3a (Win32: Unicode file name support (except dirent), 2012-03-15). Note that the only problem in this function was calling `GetFileAttributes()` instead of `GetFileAttributesW()`. The calls to `access()` were fine because `access()` is a macro which resolves to `mingw_access()`, which already handles Unicode correctly. But `lookup_prog()` was changed to use `_waccess()` directly so that we only convert the path to UTF-16 once. To make things work correctly, we have to maintain UTF-8 and UTF-16 versions in tandem in `lookup_prog()`.

2019-07-29msvc: add a Makefile target to pre-generate the Visual Studio solutionLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+23
The entire idea of generating the VS solution makes only sense if we generate it via Continuous Integration; otherwise potential users would still have to download the entire Git for Windows SDK. If we pre-generate the Visual Studio solution, Git can be built entirely within Visual Studio, and the test scripts can be run in a regular Git for Windows (e.g. the Portable Git flavor, which does not include a full GCC toolchain and therefore weighs only about a tenth of Git for Windows' SDK). So let's just add a target in the Makefile that can be used to generate said solution; The generated files will then be committed so that they can be pushed to a branch ready to check out by Visual Studio users. To make things even more useful, we also generate and commit other files that are required to run the test suite, such as templates and bin-wrappers: with this, developers can run the test suite in a regular Git Bash after building the solution in Visual Studio. Note: for this build target, we do not actually need to initialize the `vcpkg` system, so we don't.

2019-06-27mingw: use Unicode functions explicitlyLibravatar Johannes Schindelin3-6/+8
Many Win32 API functions actually exist in two variants: one with the `A` suffix that takes ANSI parameters (`char *` or `const char *`) and one with the `W` suffix that takes Unicode parameters (`wchar_t *` or `const wchar_t *`). The ANSI variant assumes that the strings are encoded according to whatever is the current locale. This is not what Git wants to use on Windows: we assume that `char *` variables point to strings encoded in UTF-8. There is a pseudo UTF-8 locale on Windows, but it does not work as one might expect. In addition, if we overrode the user's locale, that would modify the behavior of programs spawned by Git (such as editors, difftools, etc), therefore we cannot use that pseudo locale. Further, it is actually highly encouraged to use the Unicode versions instead of the ANSI versions, so let's do precisely that. Note: when calling the Win32 API functions _without_ any suffix, it depends whether the `UNICODE` constant is defined before the relevant headers are #include'd. Without that constant, the ANSI variants are used. Let's be explicit and avoid that ambiguity.

2019-06-27mingw: embed a manifest to trick UAC into Doing The Right ThingLibravatar Cesar Eduardo Barros1-0/+25
On Windows >= Vista, not having an application manifest with a requestedExecutionLevel can cause several kinds of confusing behavior. The first and more obvious behavior is "Installer Detection" of the "User Account Control" (also known as "UAC") feature, where Windows sometimes decides (by looking at things like the file name and even sequences of bytes within the executable) that an executable is an installer and should run elevated (causing the well-known popup dialog to appear). In Git's context, subcommands such as "git patch-id" or "git update-index" fall prey to this behavior. The second and more confusing behavior is "File Virtualization". It means that when files are written without having write permission, it does not fail (as expected), but they are instead redirected to somewhere else. When the files are read, the original contents are returned, though, not the ones that were just written somewhere else. Even more confusing, not all write accesses are redirected; Trying to write to write-protected .exe files, for example, will fail instead of redirecting. In addition to being unwanted behavior, File Virtualization causes dramatic slowdowns in Git (see for instance http://code.google.com/p/msysgit/issues/detail?id=320). A third unwanted behavior of Windows >= Vista is that it lies about the Windows version when calling `GetWindowsVersionEx()`. There are two ways to prevent these unwanted behaviors: Either you embed an application manifest (which really is an XML document conforming to a specific schema) within all your executables, or you add an external manifest (a file with the same name followed by `.manifest`) to all your executables. Since Git's builtins are hardlinked (or copied), it is simpler and more robust to embed a manifest. Recent enough MSVC compilers already embed a working internal manifest, and building with mingw-w64 (which is the case in Git for Windows' SDK) does it, too, but for MinGW you have to do so by hand. In any case, it is better to be explicit about this manifest, that way changes in the compiler toolchain won't surprise us (as mingw-w64 once did when it broke `GetWindowsVersionEx()` by mistake).

2019-06-25msvc: avoid debug assertion windows in Debug ModeLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+4
For regular debugging, it is pretty helpful when a debug assertion in a running application triggers a window that offers to start the debugger. However, when running the test suite, it is not so helpful, in particular when the debug assertions are then suppressed anyway because we disable the invalid parameter checking (via invalidcontinue.obj, see the comment in config.mak.uname about that object for more information). So let's simply disable that window in Debug Mode (it is already disabled in Release Mode).

This special-cases various signals that are not supported on Windows, such as SIGPIPE. These cause the UCRT to throw asserts (at least in debug mode).

2019-06-25msvc: add a compile-time flag to allow detailed heap debuggingLibravatar Jeff Hostetler1-0/+6
MS Visual C comes with a few neat features we can use to analyze the heap consumption (i.e. leaks, max memory, etc). With this patch, we introduce support via the build-time flag `USE_MSVC_CRTDBG`.

2019-06-25msvc: support building Git using MS Visual C++Libravatar Jeff Hostetler7-5/+371
With this patch, Git can be built using the Microsoft toolchain, via: make MSVC=1 [DEBUG=1] Third party libraries are built from source using the open source "vcpkg" tool set. See https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg On a first build, the vcpkg tools and the third party libraries are automatically downloaded and built. DLLs for the third party libraries are copied to the top-level (and t/helper) directory to facilitate debugging. See compat/vcbuild/README. A series of .bat files are invoked by the Makefile to find the location of the installed version of Visual Studio and the associated compiler tools (essentially replicating the environment setup performed by a "Developer Command Prompt"). This should find the most recent VS2015 or VS2017 installation. Output from these scripts are used by the Makefile to define compiler and linker pathnames and -I and -L arguments. The build produces .pdb files for both debug and release builds. Note: This commit was squashed from an organic series of commits developed between 2016 and 2018 in Git for Windows' `master` branch. This combined commit eliminates the obsolete commits related to fetching NuGet packages for third party libraries. It is difficult to use NuGet packages for C/C++ sources because they may be built by earlier versions of the MSVC compiler and have CRT version and linking issues. Additionally, the C/C++ NuGet packages that we were using tended to not be updated concurrently with the sources. And in the case of cURL and OpenSSL, this could expose us to security issues.

2019-06-20msvc: define O_ACCMODELibravatar Philip Oakley1-0/+2
This constant is not defined in MSVC's headers. In UCRT's fcntl.h, _O_RDONLY, _O_WRONLY and _O_RDWR are defined as 0, 1 and 2, respectively. Yes, that means that UCRT breaks with the tradition that O_RDWR == O_RDONLY | O_WRONLY. It is a perfectly legal way to define those constants, though, therefore we need to take care of defining O_ACCMODE accordingly. This is particularly important in order to keep our "open() can set errno to EISDIR" emulation working: it tests that (flags & O_ACCMODE) is not identical to O_RDONLY before going on to test specifically whether the file for which open() reported EACCES is, in fact, a directory.

2019-06-20mingw: replace mingw_startup() hackLibravatar Johannes Schindelin2-30/+45
Git for Windows has special code to retrieve the command-line parameters (and even the environment) in UTF-16 encoding, so that they can be converted to UTF-8. This is necessary because Git for Windows wants to use UTF-8 encoded strings throughout its code, and the main() function does not get the parameters in that encoding. To do that, we used the __wgetmainargs() function, which is not even a Win32 API function, but provided by the MINGW "runtime" instead. Obviously, this method would not work with any compiler other than GCC, and in preparation for compiling with Visual C++, we would like to avoid precisely that. Lucky us, there is a much more elegant way: we can simply implement the UTF-16 variant of `main()`: `wmain()`. To make that work, we need to link with -municode. The command-line parameters are passed to `wmain()` encoded in UTF-16, as desired, and this method also works with GCC, and also with Visual C++ after adjusting the MSVC linker flags to force it to use `wmain()`.
