2020-04-10parse_config_key(): return subsection len as size_tLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
We return the length to a subset of a string using an "int *" out-parameter. This is fine most of the time, as we'd expect config keys to be relatively short, but it could behave oddly if we had a gigantic config key. A more appropriate type is size_t. Let's switch over, which lets our callers use size_t as appropriate (they are bound by our type because they must pass the out-parameter as a pointer). This is mostly just a cleanup to make it clear this code handles long strings correctly. In practice, our config parser already chokes on long key names (because of a similar int/size_t mixup!). When doing an int/size_t conversion, we have to be careful that nobody was trying to assign a negative value to the variable. I manually confirmed that for each case here. They tend to just feed the result to xmemdupz() or similar; in a few cases I adjusted the parameter types for helper functions to make sure the size_t is preserved.

2019-09-03am: reload .gitattributes after patching itLibravatar brian m. carlson1-4/+15
When applying multiple patches with git am, or when rebasing using the am backend, it's possible that one of our patches has updated a gitattributes file. Currently, we cache this information, so if a file in a subsequent patch has attributes applied, the file will be written out with the attributes in place as of the time we started the rebase or am operation, not with the attributes applied by the previous patch. This problem does not occur when using the -m or -i flags to rebase. To ensure we write the correct data into the working tree, expire the cache after each patch that touches a path ending in ".gitattributes". Since we load these attributes in multiple separate files, we must expire them accordingly. Verify that both the am and rebase code paths work correctly, including the conflict marker size with am -3.

2018-11-08merge-recursive: increase marker length with depth of recursionLibravatar Elijah Newren1-1/+3
Later patches in this series will modify file collision conflict handling (e.g. from rename/add and rename/rename(2to1) conflicts) so that multiply nested conflict markers can arise even before considering conflicts in the virtual merge base. Including the virtual merge base will provide a way to get triply (or higher) nested conflict markers. This new way to get nested conflict markers will force the need for a more general mechanism to extend the length of conflict markers in order to differentiate between different nestings. Along with this change to conflict marker length handling, we want to make sure that we don't regress handling for other types of conflicts with nested conflict markers. Add a more involved testcase using merge.conflictstyle=diff3, where not only does the virtual merge base contain conflicts, but its virtual merge base does as well (i.e. a case with triply nested conflict markers). While there are multiple reasonable ways to handle nested conflict markers in the virtual merge base for this type of situation, the easiest approach that dovetails well with the new needs for the file collision conflict handling is to require that the length of the conflict markers increase with each subsequent nesting. Subsequent patches which change the rename/add and rename/rename(2to1) conflict handling will modify the extra_marker_size flag appropriately for their new needs.

2018-08-13attr: remove an implicit dependency on the_indexLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-2/+2
Make the attr API take an index_state instead of assuming the_index in attr code. All call sites are converted blindly to keep the patch simple and retain current behavior. Individual call sites may receive further updates to use the right index instead of the_index. There is one ugly temporary workaround added in attr.c that needs some more explanation. Commit c24f3abace (apply: file commited with CRLF should roundtrip diff and apply - 2017-08-19) forces one convert_to_git() call to NOT read the index at all. But what do you know, we read it anyway by falling back to the_index. When "istate" from convert_to_git is now propagated down to read_attr_from_array() we will hit segfault somewhere inside read_blob_data_from_index. The right way of dealing with this is to kill "use_index" variable and only follow "istate" but at this stage we are not ready for that: while most git_attr_set_direction() calls just passes the_index to be assigned to use_index, unpack-trees passes a different one which is used by entry.c code, which has no way to know what index to use if we delete use_index. So this has to be done later. Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclouds@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2017-09-14avoid "write_in_full(fd, buf, len) != len" patternLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
The return value of write_in_full() is either "-1", or the requested number of bytes[1]. If we make a partial write before seeing an error, we still return -1, not a partial value. This goes back to f6aa66cb95 (write_in_full: really write in full or return error on disk full., 2007-01-11). So checking anything except "was the return value negative" is pointless. And there are a couple of reasons not to do so: 1. It can do a funny signed/unsigned comparison. If your "len" is signed (e.g., a size_t) then the compiler will promote the "-1" to its unsigned variant. This works out for "!= len" (unless you really were trying to write the maximum size_t bytes), but is a bug if you check "< len" (an example of which was fixed recently in config.c). We should avoid promoting the mental model that you need to check the length at all, so that new sites are not tempted to copy us. 2. Checking for a negative value is shorter to type, especially when the length is an expression. 3. Linus says so. In d34cf19b89 (Clean up write_in_full() users, 2007-01-11), right after the write_in_full() semantics were changed, he wrote: I really wish every "write_in_full()" user would just check against "<0" now, but this fixes the nasty and stupid ones. Appeals to authority aside, this makes it clear that writing it this way does not have an intentional benefit. It's a historical curiosity that we never bothered to clean up (and which was undoubtedly cargo-culted into new sites). So let's convert these obviously-correct cases (this includes write_str_in_full(), which is just a wrapper for write_in_full()). [1] A careful reader may notice there is one way that write_in_full() can return a different value. If we ask write() to write N bytes and get a return value that is _larger_ than N, we could return a larger total. But besides the fact that this would imply a totally broken version of write(), it would already invoke undefined behavior. Our internal remaining counter is an unsigned size_t, which means that subtracting too many byte will wrap it around to a very large number. So we'll instantly begin reading off the end of the buffer, trying to write gigabytes (or petabytes) of data.

2016-05-09ll-merge: use a longer conflict marker for internal mergeLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+6
The primary use of conflict markers is to help the user who resolves the final (outer) merge by hand to show which part came from which branch by separating the blocks of lines apart. When the conflicted parts from a "virtual ancestor" merge created by merge-recursive remains in the common ancestor part in the final result, however, the conflict markers that are the same size as the final merge become harder to see. Increase the conflict marker size slightly for these inner merges so that the markers from the final merge and cruft from internal merge can be distinguished more easily. This would help reduce the common issue that prevents "rerere" from being used on a really complex conflict. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2016-02-22use xmallocz to avoid size arithmeticLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
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.

2015-09-28xdiff: reject files larger than ~1GBLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+4
The xdiff code is not prepared to handle extremely large files. It uses "int" in many places, which can overflow if we have a very large number of lines or even bytes in our input files. This can cause us to produce incorrect diffs, with no indication that the output is wrong. Or worse, we may even underallocate a buffer whose size is the result of an overflowing addition. We're much better off to tell the user that we cannot diff or merge such a large file. This patch covers both cases, but in slightly different ways: 1. For merging, we notice the large file and cleanly fall back to a binary merge (which is effectively "we cannot merge this"). 2. For diffing, we make the binary/text distinction much earlier, and in many different places. For this case, we'll use the xdi_diff as our choke point, and reject any diff there before it hits the xdiff code. This means in most cases we'll die() immediately after. That's not ideal, but in practice we shouldn't generally hit this code path unless the user is trying to do something tricky. We already consider files larger than core.bigfilethreshold to be binary, so this code would only kick in when that is circumvented (either by bumping that value, or by using a .gitattribute to mark a file as diffable). In other words, we can avoid being "nice" here, because there is already nice code that tries to do the right thing. We are adding the suspenders to the nice code's belt, so notice when it has been worked around (both to protect the user from malicious inputs, and because it is better to die() than generate bogus output). The maximum size was chosen after experimenting with feeding large files to the xdiff code. It's just under a gigabyte, which leaves room for two obvious cases: - a diff3 merge conflict result on files of maximum size X could be 3*X plus the size of the markers, which would still be only about 3G, which fits in a 32-bit int. - some of the diff code allocates arrays of one int per record. Even if each file consists only of blank lines, then a file smaller than 1G will have fewer than 1G records, and therefore the int array will fit in 4G. Since the limit is arbitrary anyway, I chose to go under a gigabyte, to leave a safety margin (e.g., we would not want to overflow by allocating "(records + 1) * sizeof(int)" or similar.

2015-09-25convert trivial sprintf / strcpy calls to xsnprintfLibravatar Jeff King1-6/+6
We sometimes sprintf into fixed-size buffers when we know that the buffer is large enough to fit the input (either because it's a constant, or because it's numeric input that is bounded in size). Likewise with strcpy of constant strings. However, these sites make it hard to audit sprintf and strcpy calls for buffer overflows, as a reader has to cross-reference the size of the array with the input. Let's use xsnprintf instead, which communicates to a reader that we don't expect this to overflow (and catches the mistake in case we do).

2015-06-04ll-merge: pass the original path to external driversLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+8
The interface to custom low-level merge driver was modeled to be capable of driving programs like "merge" (from the RCS suite) that can produce result solely by looking at three files that hold contents of common ancestor, ours and theirs. The information we feed to the external drivers via the command line placeholders %O, %A, and %B were designed to be purely about contents by giving names of the temporary files that hold these variants without exposing the original pathname. No matter where the result goes, merging the same three variants should produce the same result, contents is the king, that is the Git way. The external driver interface, however, is meant to help people to step outside the Git worldview, and sometimes people want to know the final path that the resulting merged contents would be stored in.

Additionally, any "real" merge conflicts that exist are obscured because every line in the file has a conflict. Assume you start out with a repo that has a lot of text files with CRLF checked in (A): o---C / \ A---B---D B: Add "* text=auto" to .gitattributes and normalize all files to LF-only C: Modify some of the text files D: Try to merge C You will get a ridiculous number of LF/CRLF conflicts when trying to merge C into D, since the repository contents for C are "wrong" wrt the new .gitattributes file. Fix ll-merge so that the "base", "theirs" and "ours" stages are passed through convert_to_worktree() and convert_to_git() before a three-way merge. This ensures that all three stages are normalized in the same way, removing from consideration differences that are only due to normalization. This feature is optional for now since it changes a low-level mechanism and is not necessary for the majority of users. The "merge.renormalize" config variable enables it.

2010-05-31Rewrite dynamic structure initializations to runtime assignmentLibravatar Gary V. Vaughan1-7/+7
Unfortunately, there are still plenty of production systems with vendor compilers that choke unless all compound declarations can be determined statically at compile time, for example hpux10.20 (I can provide a comprehensive list of our supported platforms that exhibit this problem if necessary). This patch simply breaks apart any compound declarations with dynamic initialisation expressions, and moves the initialisation until after the last declaration in the same block, in all the places necessary to have the offending compilers accept the code.

2010-03-20ll_merge(): add ancestor label parameter for diff3-style outputLibravatar Jonathan Nieder1-9/+11
Commands using the ll_merge() function will present conflict hunks imitating ‘diff3 -m’ output if the merge.conflictstyle configuration option is set appropriately. Unlike ‘diff3 -m’, the output does not include a label for the merge base on the ||||||| line of the output, and some tools misparse the conflict hunks without that. Add a new ancestor_label parameter to ll_merge() to give callers the power to rectify this situation. If ancestor_label is NULL, the output format is unchanged. All callers pass NULL for now.

2010-03-20xdl_merge(): move file1 and file2 labels to xmparam structureLibravatar Jonathan Nieder1-1/+3
The labels for the three participants in a potential conflict are all optional arguments for the xdiff merge routine; if they are NULL, then xdl_merge() can cope by omitting the labels from its output. Move them to the xmparam structure to allow new callers to save some keystrokes where they are not needed. This also has the virtue of making the xdiff merge interface more similar to merge_trees, which might make it easier to learn.

2010-03-02refactor merge flags into xmparam_tLibravatar Bert Wesarg1-8/+4
Include the merge level, favor, and style flags into the xmparam_t struct. This removes the bit twiddling with these three values into the one flags parameter. Signed-off-by: Bert Wesarg <bert.wesarg@googlemail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2010-03-02make union merge an xdl merge favorLibravatar Bert Wesarg1-38/+5
The current union merge driver is implemented as an post process. But the xdl_merge code is quite capable to produce the result by itself. Therefore move it there. Signed-off-by: Bert Wesarg <bert.wesarg@googlemail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
