We frequently allocate strings as xmalloc(len + 1), where
the extra 1 is for the NUL terminator. This can be done more
simply with xmallocz, which also checks for integer
overflow.
There's no case where switching xmalloc(n+1) to xmallocz(n)
is wrong; the result is the same length, and malloc made no
guarantees about what was in the buffer anyway. But in some
cases, we can stop manually placing NUL at the end of the
allocated buffer. But that's only safe if it's clear that
the contents will always fill the buffer.
In each case where this patch does so, I manually examined
the control flow, and I tried to err on the side of caution.

To set up default colors, we sometimes strcpy() from the
default string literals into our color buffers. This isn't a
bug (assuming the destination is COLOR_MAXLEN bytes), but
makes it harder to audit the code for problematic strcpy
calls.
Let's introduce a color_set which copies under the
assumption that there are COLOR_MAXLEN bytes in the
destination (of course you can call it on a smaller buffer,
so this isn't providing a huge amount of safety, but it's
more convenient than calling xsnprintf yourself).

This looks at first glance like the sprintf can overflow our

"git blame HEAD -- missing" failed to correctly say "HEAD" when it
tried to say "No such path 'missing' in HEAD".
* jk/blame-commit-label:
blame.c: fix garbled error message

builtin/commit.c: use xstrdup_or_null instead of envdup
builtin/apply.c: use xstrdup_or_null instead of null_strdup
git-compat-util: add xstrdup_or_null helper

This replaces "x ? xstrdup(x) : NULL" with xstrdup_or_null(x).
The change is fairly mechanical, with the exception of
resolve_refdup, which can eliminate a temporary variable.
There are still a few hits grepping for "?.*xstrdup", but
these are of slightly different forms and cannot be
converted (e.g., "x ? xstrdup(x->foo) : NULL").

Allow painting or not painting (partial) matches in context lines

* rs/grep-color-words:
grep: add color.grep.matchcontext and color.grep.matchselected
|
|
The config option color.grep.match can be used to specify the highlighting
color for matching strings. Add the options matchContext and matchSelected
to allow different colors to be specified for matching strings in the
context vs. in selected lines. This is similar to the ms and mc specifiers
in GNU grep's environment variable GREP_COLORS.
Tests are from Zoltan Klinger's earlier attempt to solve the same
issue in a different way.

Originally the color-parsing function was used only for
config variables. It made sense to pass the variable name so
that the die() message could be something like:
$ git -c color.branch.plain=bogus branch
fatal: bad color value 'bogus' for variable 'color.branch.plain'
These days we call it in other contexts, and the resulting
error messages are a little confusing:
$ git log --pretty='%C(bogus)'
fatal: bad color value 'bogus' for variable '--pretty format'
$ git config --get-color foo.bar bogus
fatal: bad color value 'bogus' for variable 'command line'
This patch teaches color_parse to complain only about the
value, and then return an error code. Config callers can
then propagate that up to the config parser, which mentions
the variable name. Other callers can provide a custom
message. After this patch these three cases now look like:
$ git -c color.branch.plain=bogus branch
error: invalid color value: bogus
fatal: unable to parse 'color.branch.plain' from command-line config
$ git log --pretty='%C(bogus)'
error: invalid color value: bogus
fatal: unable to parse --pretty format
$ git config --get-color foo.bar bogus
error: invalid color value: bogus
fatal: unable to parse default color value

We invented hashcpy() to keep the abstraction of "object name"
behind it. Use it instead of calling memcpy() with hard-coded
20-byte length when moving object names between pieces of memory.
Leave ppc/sha1.c as-is, because the function is about the SHA-1 hash

Recently and not so recently, we made sure that log/grep type operations
use textconv filters when a userfacing diff would do the same:
ef90ab6 (pickaxe: use textconv for -S counting, 2012-10-28)
b1c2f57 (diff_grep: use textconv buffers for add/deleted files, 2012-10-28)
0508fe5 (combine-diff: respect textconv attributes, 2011-05-23)
"git grep" currently does not use textconv filters at all, that is
neither for displaying the match and context nor for the actual grepping,
even when requested by --textconv.
Introduce an option "--textconv" which makes git grep use any configured
textconv filters for grepping and output purposes. It is off by default.

"git grep -e pattern <tree>" asked the attribute system to read
"<tree>:.gitattributes" file in the working tree, which was
nonsense.
* nd/grep-true-path:
grep: stop looking at random places for .gitattributes
|
|
grep searches for .gitattributes using "name" field in struct
grep_source but that field is not real on-disk path name. For example,
"grep pattern rev" fills the field with "rev:path", and Git looks for
.gitattributes in the (non-existent but exploitable) path "rev:path"
instead of "path".
This patch passes real paths down to grep_source_load_driver() when:
- grep on work tree
- grep on the index
- grep a commit (or a tag if it points to a commit)
so that these cases look up .gitattributes at proper paths.
.gitattributes lookup is disabled in all other cases.

When we have both header expression (which has to be an OR node by
construction) and a pattern expression (which could be anything), we
create a new top-level OR node to bind them together, and the
resulting expression structure looks like this:
OR
/ \
/ \
pattern OR
/ \ / \
..... committer OR
/ \
author TRUE
The three elements on the top-level backbone that are inspected by
the "all-match" logic are "pattern", "committer" and "author". When
there are more than one elements in the "pattern", the top-level
node of the "pattern" part of the subtree is an OR, and that node is
inspected by "all-match".
The result ends up ignoring the "--all-match" given from the command
line. A match on either side of the pattern is considered a match,
hence:
git log --grep=A --grep=B --author=C --all-match
shows the same "authored by C and has either A or B" that is correct
only when run without "--all-match".
Fix this by turning the resulting expression around when "--all-match"
is in effect, like this:
OR
/ \
/ \
/ OR
committer / \
author \
pattern
The set of nodes on the top-level backbone in the resulting
expression becomes "committer", "author", and the nodes that are on
the top-level backbone of the "pattern" subexpression. This makes
the "all-match" logic inspect the same nodes in "pattern" as the
case without the author and/or the committer restriction, and makes
the earlier "log" example to show "authored by C and has A and has
B", which is what the command line expects.

Our "grep" allows complex boolean expressions to be formed to match
each individual line with operators like --and, '(', ')' and --not.
Introduce the "--debug" option to show the parse tree to help people
who want to debug and enhance it.
Also "log" learns "--grep-debug" option to do the same. The command
line parser to the log family is a lot more limited than the general
"git grep" parser, but it has special handling for header matching
(e.g. "--author"), and a parse tree is valuable when working on it.
Note that "--all-match" is *not* any individual node in the parse
tree. It is an instruction to the evaluator to check all the nodes
in the top-level backbone have matched and reject a document as
non-matching otherwise.

Currently, patterns that contain newline characters don't match anything
when given to git grep. Regular grep(1) interprets patterns as lists of
newline separated search strings instead.
Implement this functionality by creating and inserting extra grep_pat
structures for patterns consisting of multiple lines when appending to
the pattern lists. For simplicity, all pattern strings are duplicated.
The original pattern is truncated in place to make it contain only the
first line.

When "git grep" is run with -P/--perl-regexp, it doesn't match ^ and $ at
the beginning/end of the line. This is because PCRE normally matches ^
and $ at the beginning/end of the whole text, not for each line, and "git
grep" passes a large chunk of text (possibly containing many lines) to
pcre_exec() and then splits the text into lines.
This makes "git grep -P" behave differently from "git grep -E" and also
from "grep -P" and "pcregrep":
$ cat file
a
b
$ git grep --no-index -P '^ ' file
$ git grep --no-index -E '^ ' file
file: b
$ grep -c -P '^ ' file
b
$ pcregrep -c '^ ' file

Usually we load each file to grep into memory, check whether
it's binary, and then either grep it (the default) or not
(if "-I" was given).
In the "-I" case, we can skip loading the file entirely if
it is marked as binary via gitattributes. On my giant
3-gigabyte media repository, doing "git grep -I foo" went
from:
real 0m0.712s
user 0m0.044s
sys 0m4.780s
to:
real 0m0.026s
user 0m0.016s
sys 0m0.020s
Obviously this is an extreme example. The repo is almost
entirely binary files, and you can see that we spent all of
our time asking the kernel to read() the data. However, with
a cold disk cache, even avoiding a few binary files can have
an impact.

There is currently no way for users to tell git-grep that a
particular path is or is not a binary file; instead, grep
always relies on its auto-detection (or the user specifying
"-a" to treat all binary-looking files like text).
This patch teaches git-grep to use the same attribute lookup
that is used by git-diff. We could add a new "grep" flag,
but that is unnecessarily complex and unlikely to be useful.
Despite the name, the "-diff" attribute (or "diff=foo" and
the associated diff.foo.binary config option) are really
about describing the contents of the path. It's simply
historical that diff was the only thing that cared about
these attributes in the past.
And if this simple approach turns out to be insufficient, we
still have a backwards-compatible path forward: we can add a
separate "grep" attribute, and fall back to respecting
"diff" if it is unset.

Right now, grep only uses the userdiff_driver for one thing:
looking up funcname patterns for "-p" and "-W". As new uses
for userdiff drivers are added to the grep code, we want to
minimize attribute lookups, which can be expensive.
It might seem at first that this would also optimize multiple
lookups when the funcname pattern for a file is needed
multiple times. However, the compiled funcname pattern is
already cached in struct grep_opt's "priv" member, so
multiple lookups are already suppressed.

Before the grep_source interface existed, grep_buffer was
used by two types of callers:
1. Ones which pulled a file into a buffer, and then wanted
to supply the file's name for the output (i.e.,
git grep).
2. Ones which really just wanted to grep a buffer (i.e.,
git log --grep).
Callers in set (1) should now be using grep_source. Callers
in set (2) always pass NULL for the "name" parameter of
grep_buffer. We can therefore get rid of this now-useless
parameter.

The main interface to the low-level grep code is
grep_buffer, which takes a pointer to a buffer and a size.
This is convenient and flexible (we use it to grep commit
bodies, files on disk, and blobs by sha1), but it makes it
hard to pass extra information about what we are grepping
(either for correctness, like overriding binary
auto-detection, or for optimizations, like lazily loading
blob contents).
Instead, let's encapsulate the idea of a "grep source",
including the buffer, its size, and where the data is coming
from. This is similar to the diff_filespec structure used by
the diff code (unsurprising, since future patches will
implement some of the same optimizations found there).
The diffstat is slightly scarier than the actual patch
content. Most of the modified lines are simply replacing
access to raw variables with their counterparts that are now
in a "struct grep_source". Most of the added lines were
taken from builtin/grep.c, which partially abstracted the
idea of grep sources (for file vs sha1 sources).
Instead of dropping the now-redundant code, this patch
leaves builtin/grep.c using the traditional grep_buffer
interface (which now wraps the grep_source interface). That
makes it easy to test that there is no change of behavior
(yet).

The low-level grep code traditionally didn't care about
threading, as it doesn't do any threading itself and didn't
call out to other non-thread-safe code. That changed with
0579f91 (grep: enable threading with -p and -W using lazy
attribute lookup, 2011-12-12), which pushed the lookup of
funcname attributes (which is not thread-safe) into the
low-level grep code.
As a result, the low-level code learned about a new global
"grep_attr_mutex" to serialize access to the attribute code.
A multi-threaded caller (e.g., builtin/grep.c) is expected
to initialize the mutex and set "use_threads" in the
grep_opt structure. The low-level code only uses the lock if
use_threads is set.
However, putting the use_threads flag into the grep_opt
struct is not the most logical place. Whether threading is
in use is not something that matters for each call to
grep_buffer, but is instead global to the whole program
(i.e., if any thread is doing multi-threaded grep, every
other thread, even if it thinks it is doing its own
single-threaded grep, would need to use the locking). In
practice, this distinction isn't a problem for us, because
the only user of multi-threaded grep is "git-grep", which
does nothing except call grep.
This patch turns the opt->use_threads flag into a global
flag. More important than the nit-picking semantic argument
above is that this means that the locking functions don't
need to actually have access to a grep_opt to know whether
to lock. Which in turn can make adding new locks simpler, as
we don't need to pass around a grep_opt.

search containing NULs, something strcasestr cannot do. The second one
is fixed because we consider patterns containing NULs as fixed strings
(regcomp cannot accept patterns with NULs).

When we read a color value either from a config file or from
the command line, we use git_config_colorbool to convert it
from the tristate always/never/auto into a single yes/no
boolean value.
This has some timing implications with respect to starting
a pager.
If we start (or decide not to start) the pager before
checking the colorbool, everything is fine. Either isatty(1)
will give us the right information, or we will properly
check for pager_in_use().
However, if we decide to start a pager after we have checked
the colorbool, things are not so simple. If stdout is a tty,
then we will have already decided to use color. However, the
user may also have configured color.pager not to use color
with the pager. In this case, we need to actually turn off
color. Unfortunately, the pager code has no idea which color
variables were turned on (and there are many of them
throughout the code, and they may even have been manipulated
after the colorbool selection by something like "--color" on
the command line).
This bug can be seen any time a pager is started after
config and command line options are checked. This has
affected "git diff" since 89d07f7 (diff: don't run pager if
user asked for a diff style exit code, 2007-08-12). It has
also affect the log family since 1fda91b (Fix 'git log'
early pager startup error case, 2010-08-24).
This patch splits the notion of parsing a colorbool and
actually checking the configuration. The "use_color"
variables now have an additional possible value,
GIT_COLOR_AUTO. Users of the variable should use the new
"want_color()" wrapper, which will lazily determine and
cache the auto-color decision.
