While handy, "git_path()" is a dangerous function to use as a callsite that uses it safely one day can be broken by changes to other code that calls it. Reduction of its use continues. * jk/war-on-git-path: am: drop "dir" parameter from am_state_init replace strbuf_addstr(git_path()) with git_path_buf() replace xstrdup(git_path(...)) with git_pathdup(...) use git_path_* helper functions branch: add edit_description() helper bisect: add git_path_bisect_terms helper
2017-04-20replace xstrdup(git_path(...)) with git_pathdup(...)Libravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
It's more efficient to use git_pathdup(), as it skips an extra copy of the path. And by removing some calls to git_path(), it makes it easier to audit for dangerous uses. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2017-03-28odb_mkstemp: write filename into strbufLibravatar Jeff King1-4/+5
The odb_mkstemp() function expects the caller to provide a fixed buffer to write the resulting tempfile name into. But it creates the template using snprintf without checking the return value. This means we could silently truncate the filename. In practice, it's unlikely that the truncation would end in the template-pattern that mkstemp needs to open the file. So we'd probably end up failing either way, unless the path was specially crafted. The simplest fix would be to notice the truncation and die. However, we can observe that most callers immediately xstrdup() the result anyway. So instead, let's switch to using a strbuf, which is easier for them (and isn't a big deal for the other 2 callers, who can just strbuf_release when they're done with it). Note that many of the callers used static buffers, but this was purely to avoid putting a large buffer on the stack. We never passed the static buffers out of the function, so there's no complicated memory handling we need to change. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net>

Code clean-up. * jk/fast-import-cleanup: pack.h: define largest possible encoded object size encode_in_pack_object_header: respect output buffer length fast-import: use xsnprintf for formatting headers fast-import: use xsnprintf for writing sha1s
2017-03-24encode_in_pack_object_header: respect output buffer lengthLibravatar Jeff King1-5/+5
The encode_in_pack_object_header() writes a variable-length header to an output buffer, but it doesn't actually know long the buffer is. At first glance, this looks like it might be possible to overflow. In practice, this is probably impossible. The smallest buffer we use is 10 bytes, which would hold the header for an object up to 2^67 bytes. Obviously we're not likely to see such an object, but we might worry that an object could lie about its size (causing us to overflow before we realize it does not actually have that many bytes). But the argument is passed as a uintmax_t. Even on systems that have __int128 available, uintmax_t is typically restricted to 64-bit by the ABI. So it's unlikely that a system exists where this could be exploited. Still, it's easy enough to use a normal out/len pair and make sure we don't write too far. That protects the hypothetical 128-bit system, makes it harder for callers to accidentally specify a too-small buffer, and makes the resulting code easier to audit. Note that the one caller in fast-import tried to catch such a case, but did so _after_ the call (at which point we'd have already overflowed!). This check can now go away.

2017-03-24fast-import: use xsnprintf for formatting headersLibravatar Jeff King1-3/+1
The stream_blob() function checks the return value of snprintf and dies. This is more simply done with xsnprintf (and matches the similar call in store_object). The message the user would get is less specific, but since the point is that this _shouldn't_ ever happen, that's OK.

2017-03-24fast-import: use xsnprintf for writing sha1sLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
When we have to write a sha1 with a newline, we do so by copying both into a single buffer, so that we can issue a single write() call. We use snprintf but don't bother to check the output, since we know it will fit. However, we should use xsnprintf() in such a case so that we're notified if our assumption turns out to be wrong (and to make it easier to audit for unchecked snprintf calls).

2017-03-16replace snprintf with odb_pack_name()Libravatar Jeff King1-15/+13
In several places we write the name of the pack filename into a fixed-size buffer using snprintf(), but do not check the return value. As a result, a very long object directory could cause us to quietly truncate the pack filename (potentially leading to a corrupted repository, as a newly written packfile could be missing its .pack extension). We can use odb_pack_name() to do this with a strbuf (and shorten the code, as well). Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2017-03-16odb_pack_keep(): stop generating keepfile nameLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+3
The odb_pack_keep() function generates the name of a .keep file and opens it. This has two problems: 1. It requires a fixed-size buffer to create the filename and doesn't notice when the result is truncated. 2. Of the two callers, one sometimes wants to open a filename it already has, which makes things awkward (it has to do so manually, and skips the leading-directory creation). Instead, let's have odb_pack_keep() just open the file. Generating the name isn't hard, and a future patch will switch callers over to odb_pack_name() anyway.

2017-02-20delete_ref: accept a reflog message argumentLibravatar Kyle Meyer1-1/+1
When the current branch is renamed with 'git branch -m/-M' or deleted with 'git update-ref -m<msg> -d', the event is recorded in HEAD's log with an empty message. In preparation for adding a more meaningful message to HEAD's log in these cases, update delete_ref() to take a message argument and pass it along to ref_transaction_delete(). Modify all callers to pass NULL for the new message argument; no change in behavior is intended. Note that this is relevant for HEAD's log but not for the deleted ref's log, which is currently deleted along with the ref. Even if it were not, an entry for the deletion wouldn't be present in the deleted ref's log. files_transaction_commit() writes to the log if REF_NEEDS_COMMIT or REF_LOG_ONLY are set, but lock_ref_for_update() doesn't set REF_NEEDS_COMMIT for the deleted ref because REF_DELETING is set. In contrast, the update for HEAD has REF_LOG_ONLY set by split_head_update(), resulting in the deletion being logged.

"git fast-import" sometimes mishandled while rebalancing notes tree, which has been fixed. * mh/fast-import-notes-fix-new: fast-import: properly fanout notes when tree is imported
2016-12-20fast-import: properly fanout notes when tree is importedLibravatar Mike Hommey1-3/+5
In typical uses of fast-import, trees are inherited from a parent commit. In that case, the tree_entry for the branch looks like: .versions[1].sha1 = $some_sha1 .tree = <tree structure loaded from $some_sha1> However, when trees are imported, rather than inherited, that is not the case. One can import a tree with a filemodify command, replacing the root tree object. e.g. "M 040000 $some_sha1 \n" In this case, the tree_entry for the branch looks like: .versions[1].sha1 = $some_sha1 .tree = NULL When adding new notes with the notemodify command, do_change_note_fanout is called to get a notes count, and to do so, it loops over the tree_entry->tree, but doesn't do anything when the tree is NULL. In the latter case above, it means do_change_note_fanout thinks the tree contains no notes, and new notes are added with no fanout. Interestingly, do_change_note_fanout does check whether subdirectories have a NULL .tree, in which case it uses load_tree(). Which means the right behaviour happens when using the filemodify command to import subdirectories. This change makes do_change_note_fanount call load_tree() whenever the tree_entry it is given has no tree loaded, making all cases handled equally.

2016-11-15compression: unify pack.compression configuration parsingLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-13/+0
There are three codepaths that use a variable whose name is pack_compression_level to affect how objects and deltas sent to a packfile is compressed. Unlike zlib_compression_level that controls the loose object compression, however, this variable was static to each of these codepaths. Two of them read the pack.compression configuration variable, using core.compression as the default, and one of them also allowed overriding it from the command line. The other codepath in bulk-checkin did not pay any attention to the configuration. Unify the configuration parsing to git_default_config(), where we implement the parsing of core.loosecompression and core.compression and make the former override the latter, by moving code to parse pack.compression and also allow core.compression to give default to this variable.

2016-07-19Merge branch 'jk/common-main'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-7/+2
There are certain house-keeping tasks that need to be performed at the very beginning of any Git program, and programs that are not built-in commands had to do them exactly the same way as "git" potty does. It was easy to make mistakes in one-off standalone programs (like test helpers). A common "main()" function that calls cmd_main() of individual program has been introduced to make it harder to make mistakes. * jk/common-main: mingw: declare main()'s argv as const common-main: call git_setup_gettext() common-main: call restore_sigpipe_to_default() common-main: call sanitize_stdfds() common-main: call git_extract_argv0_path() add an extra level of indirection to main()

2016-07-01common-main: call git_setup_gettext()Libravatar Jeff King1-2/+0
This should be part of every program, as otherwise users do not get translated error messages. However, some external commands forgot to do so (e.g., git-credential-store).

2016-07-01common-main: call git_extract_argv0_path()Libravatar Jeff King1-3/+0
Every program which links against libgit.a must call this function, or risk hitting an assert() in system_path() that checks whether we have configured argv0_path (though only when RUNTIME_PREFIX is defined, so essentially only on Windows). Looking at the diff, you can see that putting it into the common main() saves us having to do it individually in each of the external commands. But what you can't see are the cases where we _should_ have been doing so, but weren't (e.g., git-credential-store, and all of the t/helper test programs). This has been an accident-waiting-to-happen for a long time, but wasn't triggered until recently because it involves one of those programs actually calling system_path(). That happened with git-credential-store in v2.8.0 with ae5f677 (lazily load core.sharedrepository, 2016-03-11). The program: - takes a lock file, which... - opens a tempfile, which... - calls adjust_shared_perm to fix permissions, which... - lazy-loads the config (as of ae5f677), which... - calls system_path() to find the location of /etc/gitconfig On systems with RUNTIME_PREFIX, this means credential-store reliably hits that assert() and cannot be used. We never noticed in the test suite, because we set GIT_CONFIG_NOSYSTEM there, which skips the system_path() lookup entirely. But if we were to tweak git_config() to find /etc/gitconfig even when we aren't going to open it, then the test suite shows multiple failures (for credential-store, and for some other test helpers). I didn't include that tweak here because it's way too specific to this particular call to be worth carrying around what is essentially dead code. The implementation is fairly straightforward, with one exception: there is exactly one caller (git.c) that actually cares about the result of the function, and not the side-effect of setting up argv0_path. We can accommodate that by simply replacing the value of argv[0] in the array we hand down to cmd_main(). Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2016-07-01add an extra level of indirection to main()Libravatar Jeff King1-2/+2
There are certain startup tasks that we expect every git process to do. In some cases this is just to improve the quality of the program (e.g., setting up gettext()). In others it is a requirement for using certain functions in libgit.a (e.g., system_path() expects that you have called git_extract_argv0_path()). Most commands are builtins and are covered by the git.c version of main(). However, there are still a few external commands that use their own main(). Each of these has to remember to include the correct startup sequence, and we are not always consistent. Rather than just fix the inconsistencies, let's make this harder to get wrong by providing a common main() that can run this standard startup. We basically have two options to do this: - the compat/mingw.h file already does something like this by adding a #define that replaces the definition of main with a wrapper that calls mingw_startup(). The upside is that the code in each program doesn't need to be changed at all; it's rewritten on the fly by the preprocessor. The downside is that it may make debugging of the startup sequence a bit more confusing, as the preprocessor is quietly inserting new code. - the builtin functions are all of the form cmd_foo(), and git.c's main() calls them. This is much more explicit, which may make things more obvious to somebody reading the code. It's also more flexible (because of course we have to figure out _which_ cmd_foo() to call). The downside is that each of the builtins must define cmd_foo(), instead of just main(). This patch chooses the latter option, preferring the more explicit approach, even though it is more invasive. We introduce a new file common-main.c, with the "real" main. It expects to call cmd_main() from whatever other objects it is linked against. We link common-main.o against anything that links against libgit.a, since we know that such programs will need to do this setup. Note that common-main.o can't actually go inside libgit.a, as the linker would not pick up its main() function automatically (it has no callers). The rest of the patch is just adjusting all of the various external programs (mostly in t/helper) to use cmd_main(). I've provided a global declaration for cmd_main(), which means that all of the programs also need to match its signature. In particular, many functions need to switch to "const char **" instead of "char **" for argv. This effect ripples out to a few other variables and functions, as well. This makes the patch even more invasive, but the end result is much better. We should be treating argv strings as const anyway, and now all programs conform to the same signature (which also matches the way builtins are defined).

2016-05-29fast-import: invalidate pack_id references after looseningLibravatar Eric Wong1-1/+30
When loosening a pack, the current pack_id gets reused when checkpointing and the import does not terminate. This causes problems after checkpointing as the object table, branch, and tag lists still contains pre-checkpoint references to the recycled pack_id. Merely clearing the object_table as suggested by Jeff King in http://mid.gmane.org/20160517121330.GA7346@sigill.intra.peff.net is insufficient as the marks set still contains references to object entries.

With many incremental imports, small packs become highly inefficient due to the need to readdir scan and load many indices to locate even a single object.

2016-01-15strbuf: introduce strbuf_getline_{lf,nul}()Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+2
The strbuf_getline() interface allows a byte other than LF or NUL as the line terminator, but this is only because I wrote these codepaths anticipating that there might be a value other than NUL and LF that could be useful when I introduced line_termination long time ago. No useful caller that uses other value has emerged. By now, it is clear that the interface is overly broad without a good reason. Many codepaths have hardcoded preference to read either LF terminated or NUL terminated records from their input, and then call strbuf_getline() with LF or NUL as the third parameter. This step introduces two thin wrappers around strbuf_getline(), namely, strbuf_getline_lf() and strbuf_getline_nul(), and mechanically rewrites these call sites to call either one of them. The changes contained in this patch are: * introduction of these two functions in strbuf.[ch] * mechanical conversion of all callers to strbuf_getline() with either '\n' or '\0' as the third parameter to instead call the respective thin wrapper. After this step, output from "git grep 'strbuf_getline('" would become a lot smaller. An interim goal of this series is to make this an empty set, so that we can have strbuf_getline_crlf() take over the shorter name strbuf_getline(). Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

The error message after a failing commit_lock_file() call sometimes looks like this, causing confusion: $ git remote add remote git@server.com/repo.git error: could not commit config file .git/config # Huh?! # I didn't want to commit anything, especially not my config file!

While at it, include strerror in the error messages after writing the config file or the credential store fails to provide some information about the cause of the failure, and update the style of the error message after writing the reflog fails to match surrounding error messages (i.e. no '' around the pathname and no () around the error description).

strncpy is known to be a confusing function because of its termination semantics. These calls are all correct, but it takes some examination to see why.

We can just use memcpy, along with noting explicitly how the result is terminated (if it is not already obvious). That should make it more clear to a reader that we are doing the right thing.

2015-10-05prefer memcpy to strcpyLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+3
When we already know the length of a string (e.g., because we just malloc'd to fit it), it's nicer to use memcpy than strcpy, as it makes it more obvious that we are not going to overflow the buffer (because the size we pass matches the size in the allocation). This also eliminates calls to strcpy, which make auditing the code base harder. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2015-10-05avoid sprintf and strcpy with flex arraysLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+4
When we are allocating a struct with a FLEX_ARRAY member, we generally compute the size of the array and then sprintf or strcpy into it. Normally we could improve a dynamic allocation like this by using xstrfmt, but it doesn't work here; we have to account for the size of the rest of the struct. But we can improve things a bit by storing the length that we use for the allocation, and then feeding it to xsnprintf or memcpy, which makes it more obvious that we are not writing more than the allocated number of bytes. It would be nice if we had some kind of helper for allocating generic flex arrays, but it doesn't work that well: - the call signature is a little bit unwieldy: d = flex_struct(sizeof(*d), offsetof(d, path), fmt, ...); You need offsetof here instead of just writing to the end of the base size, because we don't know how the struct is packed (partially this is because FLEX_ARRAY might not be zero, though we can account for that; but the size of the struct may actually be rounded up for alignment, and we can't know that). - some sites do clever things, like over-allocating because they know they will write larger things into the buffer later (e.g., struct packed_git here). So we're better off to just write out each allocation (or add type-specific helpers, though many of these are one-off allocations anyway).

2015-09-25use xsnprintf for generating git object headersLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+2
We generally use 32-byte buffers to format git's "type size" header fields. These should not generally overflow unless you can produce some truly gigantic objects (and our types come from our internal array of constant strings). But it is a good idea to use xsnprintf to make sure this is the case. Note that we slightly modify the interface to write_sha1_file_prepare, which nows uses "hdrlen" as an "in" parameter as well as an "out" (on the way in it stores the allocated size of the header, and on the way out it returns the ultimate size of the header).

2015-09-03fast-import: switch crash-report date to iso8601Libravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
When fast-import emits a crash report, it does so in the user's local timezone. But because we omit the timezone completely for DATE_LOCAL, a reader of the report does not immediately know which time zone was used. Let's switch this to ISO8601 instead, which includes the time zone. This does mean we will show the time in UTC, but that's not a big deal. A crash report like this will either be looked at immediately (in which case nobody even looks at the timestamp), or it will be passed along to a developer to debug, in which case the original timezone is less likely to be of interest.

2015-08-10prefer git_pathdup to git_path in some possibly-dangerous casesLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+3
Because git_path uses a static buffer that is shared with calls to git_path, mkpath, etc, it can be dangerous to assign the result to a variable or pass it to a non-trivial function. The value may change unexpectedly due to other calls. None of the cases changed here has a known bug, but they're worth converting away from git_path because: 1. It's easy to use git_pathdup in these cases. 2. They use constructs (like assignment) that make it hard to tell whether they're safe or not. The extra malloc overhead should be trivial, as an allocation should be an order of magnitude cheaper than a system call (which we are clearly about to make, since we are constructing a filename). The real cost is that we must remember to free the result. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2015-08-10sha1_file.c: rename move_temp_to_file() to finalize_object_file()Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+2
Since 5a688fe4 ("core.sharedrepository = 0mode" should set, not loosen, 2009-03-25), we kept reminding ourselves: NEEDSWORK: this should be renamed to finalize_temp_file() as "moving" is only a part of what it does, when no patch between master to pu changes the call sites of this function. without doing anything about it. Let's do so. The purpose of this function was not to move but to finalize. The detail of the primarily implementation of finalizing was to link the temporary file to its final name and then to unlink, which wasn't even "moving". The alternative implementation did "move" by calling rename(2), which is a fun tangent. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

Often a fast-import stream builds a new commit on top of the previous commit it built, and it often unconditionally emits a "from" command to specify the first parent, which can be omitted in such a case. This caused fast-import to forget the tree of the previous commit and then re-read it from scratch, which was inefficient. Optimize for this common case. * mh/fast-import-optimize-current-from: fast-import: do less work when given "from" matches current branch head

2015-07-13fast-import: do less work when given "from" matches current branch headLibravatar Mike Hommey1-12/+17
When building a fast-import stream, it's easy to forget the fact that for non-merge commits happening on top of the current branch head, there is no need for a "from" command. That is corroborated by the fact that at least git-p4, hg-fast-export and felipec's git-remote-hg all unconditionally use a "from" command. Unfortunately, giving a "from" command always resets the branch tree, forcing it to be re-read, and in many cases, the pack is also closed and reopened through gfi_unpack_entry. Both are unnecessary overhead, and the latter is particularly slow at least on OSX. Avoid resetting the tree when it's unmodified, and avoid calling gfi_unpack_entry when the given mark points to the same commit as the current branch head.
