Add a tlsv1.3 option to http.sslVersion in addition to the existing tlsv1.[012] options. libcurl has supported this since 7.52.0.

This conversion was done without the #define trick used in the earlier series refactoring to have better repository access, because this function is easy to review, as it only has one caller and all lines but the first two are converted.

Add a repository argument to allow sha1_file_name callers to be more specific about which repository to handle. This is a small mechanical change; it doesn't change the implementation to handle repositories other than the_repository yet. As with the previous commits, use a macro to catch callers passing a repository other than the_repository at compile time.

2017-09-22curl_trace(): eliminate switch fallthroughLibravatar Jeff King1-3/+4
Our trace handler is called by curl with a curl_infotype variable to interpret its data field. For most types we print the data and then break out of the switch. But for CURLINFO_TEXT, we print data and then fall through to the "default" case, which does the exact same thing (nothing!) that breaking out of the switch would. This is probably a leftover from an early iteration of the patch where the code after the switch _did_ do something interesting that was unique to the non-text case arms. But in its current form, this fallthrough is merely confusing (and causes gcc's -Wimplicit-fallthrough to complain). Let's make CURLINFO_TEXT like the other case arms, and push the default arm to the end where it's more obviously a catch-all.

Back when the modern http_options() codepath was created to parse various http.* options at 29508e1e ("Isolate shared HTTP request functionality", 2005-11-18), and then later was corrected for interation between the multiple configuration files in 7059cd99 ("http_init(): Fix config file parsing", 2009-03-09), we parsed configuration variables like http.sslkey, http.sslcert as plain vanilla strings, because git_config_pathname() that understands "~[username]/" prefix did not exist. Later, we converted some of them (namely, http.sslCAPath and http.sslCAInfo) to use the function, and added variables like http.cookeyFile http.pinnedpubkey to use the function from the beginning. Because of that, these variables all understand "~[username]/" prefix. Make the remaining two variables, http.sslcert and http.sslkey, also aware of the convention, as they are both clearly pathnames to files.

2017-04-13http: fix the silent ignoring of proxy misconfiguraionLibravatar Sergey Ryazanov1-0/+3
Earlier, the whole http.proxy option string was passed to curl without any preprocessing so curl could complain about the invalid proxy configuration. After the commit 372370f167 ("http: use credential API to handle proxy authentication", 2016-01-26), if the user specified an invalid HTTP proxy option in the configuration, then the option parsing silently fails and NULL will be passed to curl as a proxy. This forces curl to fall back to detecting the proxy configuration from the environment, causing the http.proxy option ignoring. Fix this issue by checking the proxy option parsing result. If parsing failed then print an error message and die. Such behaviour allows the user to quickly figure the proxy misconfiguration and correct it.

2017-04-13http: honor empty http.proxy option to bypass proxyLibravatar Sergey Ryazanov1-2/+8
Curl distinguishes between an empty proxy address and a NULL proxy address. In the first case it completely disables proxy usage, but if the proxy address option is NULL then curl attempts to determine the proxy address from the http_proxy environment variable. According to the documentation, if the http.proxy option is set to an empty string, git should bypass proxy and connect to the server directly: export http_proxy=http://network-proxy/ cd ~/foobar-project git config remote.origin.proxy "" git fetch Previously, proxy host was configured by one line: curl_easy_setopt(result, CURLOPT_PROXY, curl_http_proxy); Commit 372370f167 ("http: use credential API to handle proxy authentication", 2016-01-26) parses the proxy option, then extracts the proxy host address and updates the curl configuration, making the previous call a noop: credential_from_url(&proxy_auth, curl_http_proxy); curl_easy_setopt(result, CURLOPT_PROXY, proxy_auth.host); But if the proxy option is empty then the proxy host field becomes NULL. This forces curl to fall back to detecting the proxy configuration from the environment, causing the http.proxy option to not work anymore. Fix this issue by explicitly handling http.proxy being set the empty string. This also makes the code a bit more clear and should help us avoid such regressions in the future.

These calls to snprintf should always succeed, because their input is small and fixed. Let's use xsnprintf to make sure this is the case (and to make auditing for actual truncation easier). These could be candidates for turning into heap buffers, but they fall into a few broad categories that make it not worth doing: - formatting single numbers is simple enough that we can see the result should fit - the size of a sha1 is likewise well-known, and I didn't want to cause unnecessary conflicts with the ongoing process to convert these constants to GIT_MAX_HEXSZ - the interface for curl_errorstr is dictated by curl Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net>

2017-02-28http: attempt updating base URL only if no errorLibravatar Jonathan Tan1-0/+3
http.c supports HTTP redirects of the form http://foo/info/refs?service=git-upload-pack -> http://anything -> http://bar/info/refs?service=git-upload-pack (that is to say, as long as the Git part of the path and the query string is preserved in the final redirect destination, the intermediate steps can have any URL). However, if one of the intermediate steps results in an HTTP exception, a confusing "unable to update url base from redirection" message is printed instead of a Curl error message with the HTTP exception code. This was introduced by 2 commits. Commit c93c92f ("http: update base URLs when we see redirects", 2013-09-28) introduced a best-effort optimization that required checking if only the "base" part of the URL differed between the initial request and the final redirect destination, but it performed the check before any HTTP status checking was done. If something went wrong, the normal code path was still followed, so this did not cause any confusing error messages until commit 6628eb4 ("http: always update the base URL for redirects", 2016-12-06), which taught http to die if the non-"base" part of the URL differed. Therefore, teach http to check the HTTP status before attempting to check if only the "base" part of the URL differed. This commit teaches http_request_reauth to return early without updating options->base_url upon an error; the only invoker of this function that passes a non-NULL "options" is remote-curl.c (through "http_get_strbuf"), which only uses options->base_url for an informational message in the situations that this commit cares about (that is, when the return value is not HTTP_OK). The included test checks that the redirect scheme at the beginning of this commit message works, and that returning a 502 in the middle of the redirect scheme produces the correct result. Note that this is different from the test in commit 6628eb4 ("http: always update the base URL for redirects", 2016-12-06) in that this commit tests that a Git-shaped URL (http://.../info/refs?service=git-upload-pack) works, whereas commit 6628eb4 tests that a non-Git-shaped URL (http://.../info/refs/foo?service=git-upload-pack) does not work (even though Git is processing that URL) and is an error that is fatal, not silently swallowed.

2017-02-27http: add an "auto" mode for http.emptyauthLibravatar Jeff King1-5/+45
This variable needs to be specified to make some types of non-basic authentication work, but ideally this would just work out of the box for everyone. However, simply setting it to "1" by default introduces an extra round-trip for cases where it _isn't_ useful. We end up sending a bogus empty credential that the server rejects. Instead, let's introduce an automatic mode, that works like this: 1. We won't try to send the bogus credential on the first request. We'll wait to get an HTTP 401, as usual. 2. After seeing an HTTP 401, the empty-auth hack will kick in only when we know there is an auth method available that might make use of it (i.e., something besides "Basic" or "Digest"). That should make it work out of the box, without incurring any extra round-trips for people hitting Basic-only servers. This _does_ incur an extra round-trip if you really want to use "Basic" but your server advertises other methods (the emptyauth hack will kick in but fail, and then Git will actually ask for a password). The auto mode may incur an extra round-trip over setting http.emptyauth=true, because part of the emptyauth hack is to feed this blank password to curl even before we've made a single request.

2017-02-23http: restrict auth methods to what the server advertisesLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+2
By default, we tell curl to use CURLAUTH_ANY, which does not limit its set of auth methods. However, this results in an extra round-trip to the server when authentication is required. After we've fed the credential to curl, it wants to probe the server to find its list of available methods before sending an Authorization header. We can shortcut this by limiting our http_auth_methods by what the server told us it supports. In some cases (such as when the server only supports Basic), that lets curl skip the extra probe request. The end result should look the same to the user, but you can use GIT_TRACE_CURL to verify the sequence of requests: GIT_TRACE_CURL=1 \ git ls-remote https://example.com/repo.git \ 2>&1 >/dev/null | egrep '(Send|Recv) header: (GET|HTTP|Auth)' Before this patch, hitting a Basic-only server like github.com results in: Send header: GET /repo.git/info/refs?service=git-upload-pack HTTP/1.1 Recv header: HTTP/1.1 401 Authorization Required Send header: GET /repo.git/info/refs?service=git-upload-pack HTTP/1.1 Recv header: HTTP/1.1 401 Authorization Required Send header: GET /repo.git/info/refs?service=git-upload-pack HTTP/1.1 Send header: Authorization: Basic <redacted> Recv header: HTTP/1.1 200 OK And after: Send header: GET /repo.git/info/refs?service=git-upload-pack HTTP/1.1 Recv header: HTTP/1.1 401 Authorization Required Send header: GET /repo.git/info/refs?service=git-upload-pack HTTP/1.1 Send header: Authorization: Basic <redacted> Recv header: HTTP/1.1 200 OK The possible downsides are: - This only helps for a Basic-only server; for a server with multiple auth options, curl may still send a probe request to see which ones are available (IOW, there's no way to say "don't probe, I already know what the server will say"). - The http_auth_methods variable is global, so this will apply to all further requests. That's acceptable for Git's usage of curl, though, which also treats the credentials as global. I.e., in any given program invocation we hit only one conceptual server (we may be redirected at the outset, but in that case that's whose auth_avail field we'd see).

Transport with dumb http can be fooled into following foreign URLs that the end user does not intend to, especially with the server side redirects and http-alternates mechanism, which can lead to security issues. Tighten the redirection and make it more obvious to the end user when it happens. * jk/http-walker-limit-redirect-2.9: http: treat http-alternates like redirects http: make redirects more obvious remote-curl: rename shadowed options variable http: always update the base URL for redirects http: simplify update_url_from_redirect
