6a8cbc41ba (developer: enable pedantic by default, 2021-09-03)
enables pedantic mode in as many compilers as possible to help gather
feedback on future tightening, so lets do so.
-Wpedantic is missing in some really old gcc 4 versions so lets restrict
it to gcc5 and clang4 (it does work in clang3 AFAIK, but it will be
unlikely that a developer will use such an old compiler anyway).
MinGW gcc is the only one which has -Wno-pedantic-ms-format, and while
that is available also in older compilers, the Windows SDK provides gcc10
so lets aim for that.
Note that in order to target the flag to only Windows, additional changes
were needed in config.mak.uname to propagate the OS detection which also
did some minor refactoring, but which is functionaly equivalent.

Change various places that hardcode the names of these two files to
refer to either $(GENERATED_H), or to a new generated-hdrs
target. That target is consistent with the *-objs targets I recently
added in 029bac01a8 (Makefile: add {program,xdiff,test,git,fuzz}-objs
& objects targets, 2021-02-23).
A subsequent commit will add a new generated hook-list.h. By doing
this refactoring we'll only need to add the new file to the
GENERATED_H variable, not EXCEPT_HDRS, the vcbuild/README etc.
Hardcoding command-list.h there seems to have been a case of
copy/paste programming in 976aaedca0 (msvc: add a Makefile target to
pre-generate the Visual Studio solution, 2019-07-29). The
config-list.h was added later in 709df95b78 (help: move
list_config_help to builtin/help, 2020-04-16).

trace2 logs learned to show parent process name to see in what
context Git was invoked.
* es/trace2-log-parent-process-name:
tr2: log parent process name
tr2: make process info collection platform-generic
|
|
It can be useful to tell who invoked Git - was it invoked manually by a
user via CLI or script? By an IDE? In some cases - like 'repo' tool -
we can influence the source code and set the GIT_TRACE2_PARENT_SID
environment variable from the caller process. In 'repo''s case, that
parent SID is manipulated to include the string "repo", which means we
can positively identify when Git was invoked by 'repo' tool. However,
identifying parents that way requires both that we know which tools
invoke Git and that we have the ability to modify the source code of
those tools. It cannot scale to keep up with the various IDEs and
wrappers which use Git, most of which we don't know about. Learning
which tools and wrappers invoke Git, and how, would give us insight to
decide where to improve Git's usability and performance.
Unfortunately, there's no cross-platform reliable way to gather the name
of the parent process. If procfs is present, we can use that; otherwise
we will need to discover the name another way. However, the process ID
should be sufficient to look up the process name on most platforms, so
that code may be shareable.
Git for Windows gathers similar information and logs it as a "data_json"
event. However, since "data_json" has a variable format, it is difficult
to parse effectively in some languages; instead, let's pursue a
dedicated "cmd_ancestry" event to record information about the ancestry
of the current process and a consistent, parseable way.
Git for Windows also gathers information about more than one generation
of parent. In Linux further ancestry info can be gathered with procfs,
but it's unwieldy to do so. In the interest of later moving Git for
Windows ancestry logging to the 'cmd_ancestry' event, and in the
interest of later adding more ancestry to the Linux implementation - or
of adding this functionality to other platforms which have an easier
time walking the process tree - let's make 'cmd_ancestry' accept an
array of parentage.

To pave the way for non-Windows platforms to define
trace2_collect_process_info(), reorganize the stub-or-definition schema
to something which doesn't directly reference Windows.
Platforms which want to collect parent process information in the
future should:
1. Add an implementation to compat/ (e.g. compat/somearch/procinfo.c)
2. Add that object to COMPAT_OBJS to config.mak.uname
(e.g. COMPAT_OBJS += compat/somearch/procinfo.o)
3. Define HAVE_PLATFORM_PROCINFO in config.mak.uname
In the Windows case, this definition lives in
compat/win32/trace2_win32_process_info.c, which is already conditionally
added to COMPAT_OBJS; so let's add HAVE_PLATFORM_PROCINFO to hint to the
build that compat/stub/procinfo.c should not be used.

Whitespace fix.
* js/config-mak-windows-pcre-fix:
config.mak.uname: PCRE1 cleanup
|

Git for Windows' prefix is `/mingw64/` (or `/mingw32/` for 32-bit
versions), therefore the system config is located at the clunky location
`C:\Program Files\Git\mingw64\etc\gitconfig`.
This moves the system config into a more logical location: the `mingw64`
part of `C:\Program Files\Git\mingw64\etc\gitconfig` never made sense,
as it is a mere implementation detail. Let's skip the `mingw64` part and
move this to `C:\Program Files\Git\etc\gitconfig`.
Side note: in the rare (and not recommended) case a user chooses to
install 32-bit Git for Windows on a 64-bit system, the path will of
course be `C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\etc\gitconfig`.
Background: During the Git for Windows v1.x days, the system config was
located at `C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\etc\gitconfig`. With Git for
Windows v2.x, it moved to `C:\Program Files\Git\mingw64\gitconfig` (or
`C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\mingw32\gitconfig`). Rather than fixing it
back then, we tried to introduce a "Windows-wide" config, but that never
caught on.
Likewise, we move the system `gitattributes` into the same directory.
Obviously, we are cautious to do this only for the known install
locations `/mingw64` and `/mingw32`; If anybody wants to override that
while building their version of Git (e.g. via `make prefix=$HOME`), we
leave the default location of the system config and gitattributes alone.

Work around platforms whose open() is reported to return EINTR (it
shouldn't, as we do our signals with SA_RESTART).
* jk/open-returns-eintr:
config.mak.uname: enable OPEN_RETURNS_EINTR for macOS Big Sur
Makefile: add OPEN_RETURNS_EINTR knob
|
|
We've had mixed reports on whether the latest release of macOS needs
this Makefile knob set. In most reported cases, there's antivirus
software running (which one might imagine could cause an open() call to
be delayed). However, one of the (off-list) reports I've gotten
indicated that it happened on an otherwise clean install of Big Sur.
Since the symptom is so bad (checkout randomly fails to write several
fails when the progress meter kicks in), and since the workaround is so
lightweight (if we don't see EINTR, it's just an extra conditional
check), let's just turn it on by default.

Code clean-up by removing a compatibility implementation of a
function we no longer use.
* cb/no-more-gmtime:
compat: remove gmtime
|
|
ccd469450a (date.c: switch to reentrant {gm,local}time_r, 2019-11-28)
removes the only gmtime() call we had and moves to gmtime_r() which
doesn't have the same portability problems.
Remove the compat gmtime code since it is no longer needed, and confirm
by successfull running t4212 in FreeBSD 9.3 amd64 (the oldest I could
get a hold off).
Further work might be needed to ensure 32bit time_t systems (like FreeBSD
i386) will handle correctly the overflows tested in t4212, but that is
orthogonal to this change, and it doesn't change the current behaviour
as neither gmtime() or gmtime_r() will ever return NULL on those systems
because time_t is unsigned.

Recent update to Homebrew used by macOS folks breaks build by
moving gettext library and necessary headers.
* ds/build-homebrew-gettext-fix:
macOS/brew: let the build find gettext headers/libraries/msgfmt
|
|
Apparently a recent Homebrew update now installs `gettext` into the
subdirectory /usr/local/opt/gettext/[lib/include].
Sometimes the ci job succeeds:
brew link --force gettext
Linking /usr/local/Cellar/gettext/0.20.1... 179 symlinks created
And sometimes installing the package "gettext" with force-link fails:
brew link --force gettext
Warning: Refusing to link macOS provided/shadowed software: gettext
If you need to have gettext first in your PATH run:
echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/opt/gettext/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bash_profile
(And the is not the final word either, since macOS itself says:
The default interactive shell is now zsh.)
Anyway, The latter requires CFLAGS to include /usr/local/opt/gettext/include
and LDFLAGS to include /usr/local/opt/gettext/lib.
Likewise, the `msgfmt` tool is no longer in the `PATH`.
While it is unclear which change is responsible for this breakage (that
most notably only occurs on CI build agents that updated very recently),
https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/pull/53489 has fixed it.
Nevertheless, let's work around this issue, as there are still quite a
few build agents out there that need some help in this regard: we
explicitly do not call `brew update` in our CI/PR builds anymore.

Starting in 3ac68a93fd2, help.o began to depend on builtin/branch.o,
builtin/clean.o, and builtin/config.o. This meant that help.o was
unusable outside of the context of the main Git executable.
To make help.o usable by other commands again, move list_config_help()
into builtin/help.c (where it makes sense to assume other builtin libraries
are present).
When command-list.h is included but a member is not used, we start to
hear a compiler warning. Since the config list is generated in a fairly
different way than the command list, and since commands and config
options are semantically different, move the config list into its own
header and move the generator into its own script and build rule.
For reasons explained in 976aaedc (msvc: add a Makefile target to
pre-generate the Visual Studio solution, 2019-07-29), some build
artifacts we consider non-source files cannot be generated in the
Visual Studio environment, and we already have some Makefile tweaks
to help Visual Studio to use generated command-list.h header file.
Do the same to a new generated file, config-list.h, introduced by
this change.

Back in the DOS days, in the FAT file system, file names always
consisted of a base name of length 8 plus a file extension of length 3.
Shorter file names were simply padded with spaces to the full 8.3
format.
Later, the FAT file system was taught to support _also_ longer names,
with an 8.3 "short name" as primary file name. While at it, the same
facility allowed formerly illegal file names, such as `.git` (empty base
names were not allowed), which would have the "short name" `git~1`
associated with it.
For backwards-compatibility, NTFS supports alternative 8.3 short
filenames, too, even if starting with Windows Vista, they are only
generated on the system drive by default.
We addressed the problem that the `.git/` directory can _also_ be
accessed via `git~1/` (when short names are enabled) in 2b4c6efc821
(read-cache: optionally disallow NTFS .git variants, 2014-12-16), i.e.
since Git v1.9.5, by introducing the config setting `core.protectNTFS`
and enabling it by default on Windows.
In the meantime, Windows 10 introduced the "Windows Subsystem for Linux"
(short: WSL), i.e. a way to run Linux applications/distributions in a
thinly-isolated subsystem on Windows (giving rise to many a "2016 is the
Year of Linux on the Desktop" jokes). WSL is getting increasingly
popular, also due to the painless way Linux application can operate
directly ("natively") on files on Windows' file system: the Windows
drives are mounted automatically (e.g. `C:` as `/mnt/c/`).
Taken together, this means that we now have to enable the safe-guards of
Git v1.9.5 also in WSL: it is possible to access a `.git` directory
inside `/mnt/c/` via the 8.3 name `git~1` (unless short name generation
was disabled manually). Since regular Linux distributions run in WSL,
this means we have to enable `core.protectNTFS` at least on Linux, too.
To enable Services for Macintosh in Windows NT to store so-called
resource forks, NTFS introduced "Alternate Data Streams". Essentially,
these constitute additional metadata that are connected to (and copied
with) their associated files, and they are accessed via pseudo file
names of the form `filename:<stream-name>:<stream-type>`.
In a recent patch, we extended `core.protectNTFS` to also protect
against accesses via NTFS Alternate Data Streams, e.g. to prevent
contents of the `.git/` directory to be "tracked" via yet another
alternative file name.
While it is not possible (at least by default) to access files via NTFS
Alternate Data Streams from within WSL, the defaults on macOS when
mounting network shares via SMB _do_ allow accessing files and
directories in that way. Therefore, we need to enable `core.protectNTFS`
on macOS by default, too, and really, on any Operating System that can
mount network shares via SMB/CIFS.
A couple of approaches were considered for fixing this:
1. We could perform a dynamic NTFS check similar to the `core.symlinks`
check in `init`/`clone`: instead of trying to create a symbolic link
in the `.git/` directory, we could create a test file and try to
access `.git/config` via 8.3 name and/or Alternate Data Stream.
2. We could simply "flip the switch" on `core.protectNTFS`, to make it
"on by default".
The obvious downside of 1. is that it won't protect worktrees that were
clone with a vulnerable Git version already. We considered patching code
paths that check out files to check whether we're running on an NTFS
system dynamically and persist the result in the repository-local config
setting `core.protectNTFS`, but in the end decided that this solution
would be too fragile, and too involved.
The obvious downside of 2. is that everybody will have to "suffer" the
performance penalty incurred from calling `is_ntfs_dotgit()` on every
path, even in setups where.
After the recent work to accelerate `is_ntfs_dotgit()` in most cases,
it looks as if the time spent on validating ten million random
file names increases only negligibly (less than 20ms, well within the
standard deviation of ~50ms). Therefore the benefits outweigh the cost.
Another downside of this is that paths that might have been acceptable
previously now will be forbidden. Realistically, though, this is an
improvement because public Git hosters already would reject any `git
push` that contains such file names.
Note: There might be a similar problem mounting HFS+ on Linux. However,
this scenario has been considered unlikely and in light of the cost (in
the aforementioned benchmark, `core.protectHFS = true` increased the
time from ~440ms to ~610ms), it was decided _not_ to touch the default
of `core.protectHFS`.
This change addresses CVE-2019-1353.

In the CI builds, we bundle all generated files into a so-called
artifacts `.tar` file, so that the test phase can fan out into multiple
parallel builds.
This patch makes sure that all files are included in the `vcxproj`
target which are needed for that artifacts `.tar` file.

In b18ae14a8f6 (vcxproj: also link-or-copy builtins, 2019-07-29), we
started to copy or hard-link the built-ins as a post-build step of the
`git` project.
At the same time, we tried to copy or hard-link `git-remote-http.exe`,
but it is quite possible that it was not built at that time.
Let's move that latter task into a post-install step of the
`git-remote-http` project instead.

The default location for `.exe` files linked by Visual Studio depends on
the mode (debug vs release) and the architecture. Meaning: after a full
build, there is a `git.exe` in the top-level directory, but none of the
built-ins are linked..
When running a test script in Git Bash, it therefore would pick up the
wrong, say, `git-receive-pack.exe`: the one installed at the same time
as the Git Bash.
Absolutely not what we want. We want to have confidence that our test
covers the MSVC-built Git executables, and not some random stuff.

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.

Windows update.

mingw: enable stack smashing protector
|
|
To reduce Git for Windows' attack surface, we started using the Address
Space Layout Randomization and Data Execution Prevention features in
ce6a158561f9 (mingw: enable DEP and ASLR, 2019-05-08).
To remove yet another attack vector, let's make use of gcc's stack
smashing protector that helps detect stack buffer overruns early.
Rather than using -fstack-protector, we use -fstack-protector-strong
because on Windows: The latter appears to strike a better balance
between the performance impact and the provided safety.
In a non-scientific test (time git log --grep=is -p), best of 5 timings
went from 23.009s to 22.997s, i.e. the performance impact was *well*
lost in the noise.

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.

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()`.

The msysGit project (i.e. Git for Windows 1.x' SDK) is safely dead for
*years* already. This is probably the reason why nobody caught this typo
until Carlo Arenas spotted a copy-edited version of it nearby.
It is probably about time to rip out the remainders of msysGit/MSys1
support, but that can safely wait a bit longer, and we can at least fix
the typo for now.

Enable DEP (Data Execution Prevention) and ASLR (Address Space Layout
Randomization) support. This applies to both 32bit and 64bit builds
and makes it substantially harder to exploit security holes in Git by
offering a much more unpredictable attack surface.
ASLR interferes with GDB's ability to set breakpoints. A similar issue
holds true when compiling with -O2 (in which case single-stepping is
messed up because GDB cannot map the code back to the original source
code properly). Therefore we simply enable ASLR only when an
optimization flag is present in the CFLAGS, using it as an indicator
that the developer does not want to debug in GDB anyway.

This is the first step for enabling ASLR (Address Space Layout
Randomization) support. We want to enable ASLR for better protection
against exploiting security holes in Git: it makes it harder to attack
software by making code addresses unpredictable.
The problem fixed by this commit is that `ld.exe` seems to be stripping
relocations which in turn will break ASLR support. We just make sure
it's not stripping the main executable entry.
