Rename detection logic in "diff" family that is used in "merge" has
learned to guess when all of x/a, x/b and x/c have moved to z/a,
z/b and z/c, it is likely that x/d added in the meantime would also
want to move to z/d by taking the hint that the entire directory
'x' moved to 'z'. A bug causing dirty files involved in a rename
to be overwritten during merge has also been fixed as part of this
work. Incidentally, this also avoids updating a file in the
working tree after a (non-trivial) merge whose result matches what

We've recently forbidden .gitmodules to be a symlink in
verify_path(). And it's an easy way to circumvent our fsck
checks for .gitmodules content. So let's complain when we
see it.
Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net>

Now that the internal fsck code has all of the plumbing we
need, we can start checking incoming .gitmodules files.
Naively, it seems like we would just need to add a call to
fsck_finish() after we've processed all of the objects. And
that would be enough to cover the initial test included
here. But there are two extra bits:
1. We currently don't bother calling fsck_object() at all
for blobs, since it has traditionally been a noop. We'd
actually catch these blobs in fsck_finish() at the end,
but it's more efficient to check them when we already
have the object loaded in memory.
2. The second pass done by fsck_finish() needs to access
the objects, but we're actually indexing the pack in
this process. In theory we could give the fsck code a
special callback for accessing the in-pack data, but
it's actually quite tricky:
a. We don't have an internal efficient index mapping
oids to packfile offsets. We only generate it on
the fly as part of writing out the .idx file.
b. We'd still have to reconstruct deltas, which means
we'd basically have to replicate all of the
reading logic in packfile.c.
Instead, let's avoid running fsck_finish() until after
we've written out the .idx file, and then just add it
to our internal packed_git list.
This does mean that the objects are "in the repository"
before we finish our fsck checks. But unpack-objects
already exhibits this same behavior, and it's an
acceptable tradeoff here for the same reason: the
quarantine mechanism means that pushes will be
fully protected.
In addition to a basic push test in t7415, we add a sneaky
pack that reverses the usual object order in the pack,
requiring that index-pack access the tree and blob during
the "finish" step.
This already works for unpack-objects (since it will have
written out loose objects), but we'll check it with this
sneaky pack for good measure.

As with the previous commit, we must call fsck's "finish"
function in order to catch any queued objects for
.gitmodules checks.
This second pass will be able to access any incoming
objects, because we will have exploded them to loose objects
by now.
This isn't quite ideal, because it means that bad objects
may have been written to the object database (and a
subsequent operation could then reference them, even if the
other side doesn't send the objects again). However, this is
sufficient when used with receive.fsckObjects, since those
loose objects will all be placed in a temporary quarantine
area that will get wiped if we find any problems.
Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net>

Now that the internal fsck code is capable of checking
.gitmodules files, we just need to teach its callers to use
the "finish" function to check any queued objects.
With this, we can now catch the malicious case in t7415 with
git-fsck.

Note that this includes two bits of evil-merge:
- there's a new call to verify_path() that doesn't actually
have a mode available. It should be OK to pass "0" here,
since we're just manipulating the untracked cache, not an
actual index entry.
- the lstat() in builtin/update-index.c:update_one() needs
to be updated to handle the fsmonitor case (without this
it still behaves correctly, but does an unnecessary
lstat).

Submodule "names" come from the untrusted .gitmodules file,
but we blindly append them to $GIT_DIR/modules to create our
on-disk repo paths. This means you can do bad things by
putting "../" into the name (among other things).
Let's sanity-check these names to avoid building a path that
can be exploited. There are two main decisions:
1. What should the allowed syntax be?
It's tempting to reuse verify_path(), since submodule
names typically come from in-repo paths. But there are
two reasons not to:
a. It's technically more strict than what we need, as
we really care only about breaking out of the
$GIT_DIR/modules/ hierarchy. E.g., having a
submodule named "foo/.git" isn't actually
dangerous, and it's possible that somebody has
manually given such a funny name.
b. Since we'll eventually use this checking logic in
fsck to prevent downstream repositories, it should
be consistent across platforms. Because
verify_path() relies on is_dir_sep(), it wouldn't
block "foo\..\bar" on a non-Windows machine.
2. Where should we enforce it? These days most of the
.gitmodules reads go through submodule-config.c, so
I've put it there in the reading step. That should
cover all of the C code.
We also construct the name for "git submodule add"
inside the git-submodule.sh script. This is probably
not a big deal for security since the name is coming
from the user anyway, but it would be polite to remind
them if the name they pick is invalid (and we need to
expose the name-checker to the shell anyway for our
test scripts).
This patch issues a warning when reading .gitmodules
and just ignores the related config entry completely.
This will generally end up producing a sensible error,
as it works the same as a .gitmodules file which is
missing a submodule entry (so "submodule update" will
barf, but "git clone --recurse-submodules" will print
an error but not abort the clone.
There is one minor oddity, which is that we print the
warning once per malformed config key (since that's how
the config subsystem gives us the entries). So in the
new test, for example, the user would see three
warnings. That's OK, since the intent is that this case
should never come up outside of malicious repositories
(and then it might even benefit the user to see the
message multiple times).
Credit for finding this vulnerability and the proof of
concept from which the test script was adapted goes to
Etienne Stalmans.

The last two tests 'editor with a space' and 'core.editor with a
space' in 't7005-editor.sh' need the SPACES_IN_FILENAMES prereq to
ensure that they are only run on filesystems that allow, well, spaces
in filenames. However, we have been putting a space in the name of
the trash directory for just over a decade now, so we wouldn't be able
to run any of our tests on such a filesystem in the first place.
This prereq is therefore unnecessary, remove it.

By default we want to fill the whole screen if possible, but we do not
want to use up _all_ terminal columns because the last character is
going hit the border, push the cursor over and wrap. Keep it at
default value zero, which will make print_columns() set the width at
term_columns() - 1.
This affects the test in t7004 because effective column width before
was 40 but now 39 so we need to compensate it by one or the output at
39 columns has a different layout.

In a while-at-it cleanup replacing a 'cd dir && <...> && cd ..' with a
subshell, commit 28391a80a9 (receive-pack: allow deletion of corrupt
refs, 2007-11-29) also moved the assignment of the $old_commit
variable to that subshell. This variable, however, is used outside of
that subshell as a parameter of check_push_result(), to check that a
ref still points to the commit where it is supposed to. With the
variable remaining unset outside the subshell check_push_result()
doesn't perform that check at all.
Use 'git -C <dir> cmd...', so we don't need to change directory, and
thus don't need the subshell either when setting $old_commit.
Furthermore, change check_push_result() to require at least three
parameters (the repo, the oid, and at least one ref), so it will catch
similar issues earlier should they ever arise.

The two JGit tests 'we can read jgit bitmaps' and 'jgit can read our
bitmaps' in 't5310-pack-bitmaps.sh' fail when run with
GIT_TEST_SPLIT_INDEX=YesPlease. Both tests create a clone of the test
repository to check bitmap interoperability with JGit. With split
indexes enabled the index in the clone repositories contains the
'link' extension, which JGit doesn't support and, consequently, an
exception aborts it:
<...>
org.eclipse.jgit.api.errors.JGitInternalException: DIRC extension 'link' not supported by this version.
at org.eclipse.jgit.dircache.DirCache.readFrom(DirCache.java:562)

Since testing bitmaps doesn't need a worktree in the first place,
let's just create bare clones for the two JGit tests, so the cloned
won't have an index, and these two tests can be executed even with
split index enabled.

Placing `struct lock_file`s on the stack used to be a bad idea, because
the temp- and lockfile-machinery would keep a pointer into the struct.
But after 076aa2cbd (tempfile: auto-allocate tempfiles on heap,
2017-09-05), we can safely have lockfiles on the stack. (This applies
even if a user returns early, leaving a locked lock behind.)
Each of these `struct lock_file`s is used from within a single function.
Move them into the respective functions to make the scope clearer and
drop the staticness.
For good measure, I have inspected these sites and come to believe that
they always release the lock, with the possible exception of bailing out
using `die()` or `exit()` or by returning from a `cmd_foo()`.
As pointed out by Jeff King, it would be bad if someone held on to a
`struct lock_file *` for some reason. After some grepping, I agree with
his findings: no-one appears to be doing that.
After this commit, the remaining occurrences of "static struct
lock_file" are locks that are used from within different functions. That
is, they need to remain static. (Short of more intrusive changes like
passing around pointers to non-static locks.)

Die in case writing the index fails, so that the caller can notice
(instead of, say, being impressed by how performant the writing is).
While at it, note that after opening a lock with `LOCK_DIE_ON_ERROR`, we
do not need to worry about whether we succeeded. Also, we can move the
`struct lock_file` into the function and drop the staticness. (Placing
`struct lock_file`s on the stack used to be a bad idea, because the

The test script 't6050-replace.sh' starts off with redirecting the
whole test script's stdin from /dev/null. This redirection has been
there since the test script was introduced in a3e8267225
(replace_object: add a test case, 2009-01-23), but the commit message
doesn't explain why it was deemed necessary. AFAICT, it has never
been necessary, and t6050 runs just fine and succeeds even without it,
not only the current version but past versions as well.
Besides being unnecessary, this redirection is also harmful, as it
prevents the test helper functions 'test_pause' and 'debug' from
working properly in t6050, because we can't enter any commands to the
shell and the debugger, respectively.
So let's remove that redirection.

The can-working-tree-updates-be-skipped check has had a long and blemished
history. The update can be skipped iff:
a) The merge is clean
b) The merge matches what was in HEAD (content, mode, pathname)
c) The target path is usable (i.e. not involved in D/F conflict)
Traditionally, we split b into parts:
b1) The merged result matches the content and mode found in HEAD
b2) The merged target path existed in HEAD
Steps a & b1 are easy to check; we have always gotten those right. While
it is easy to overlook step c, this was fixed seven years ago with commit
4ab9a157d069 ("merge_content(): Check whether D/F conflicts are still
present", 2010-09-20). merge-recursive didn't have a readily available
way to directly check step b2, so various approximations were used:
* In commit b2c8c0a76274 ("merge-recursive: When we detect we can skip
an update, actually skip it", 2011-02-28), it was noted that although
the code claimed it was skipping the update, it did not actually skip
the update. The code was made to skip it, but used lstat(path, ...)
as an approximation to path-was-tracked-in-index-before-merge.
* In commit 5b448b853030 ("merge-recursive: When we detect we can skip
an update, actually skip it", 2011-08-11), the problem with using
lstat was noted. It was changed to the approximation
path2 && strcmp(path, path2)
which is also wrong. !path2 || strcmp(path, path2) would have been
better, but would have fallen short with directory renames.
* In c5b761fb2711 ("merge-recursive: ensure we write updates for
directory-renamed file", 2018-02-14), the problem with the previous
approximation was noted and changed to
was_tracked(path)
That looks close to what we were trying to answer, but was_tracked()
as implemented at the time should have been named is_tracked(); it
returned something different than what we were looking for.
* To make matters more complex, fixing was_tracked() isn't sufficient
because the splitting of b into b1 and b2 is wrong. Consider the
following merge with a rename/add conflict:
side A: modify foo, add unrelated bar
side B: rename foo->bar (but don't modify the mode or contents)
In this case, the three-way merge of original foo, A's foo, and B's
bar will result in a desired pathname of bar with the same
mode/contents that A had for foo. Thus, A had the right mode and
contents for the file, and it had the right pathname present (namely,
bar), but the bar that was present was unrelated to the contents, so
the working tree update was not skippable.
Fix this by introducing a new function:
was_tracked_and_matches(o, path, &mfi.oid, mfi.mode)
and use it to directly check for condition b.

Add several tests checking whether updates can be skipped in a merge.
Also add several similar testcases for where updates cannot be skipped in
a merge to make sure that we skip if and only if we should.
In particular:
* Testcase 1a (particularly 1a-check-L) would have pointed out the
problem Linus has been dealing with for year with his merges[1].
* Testcase 2a (particularly 2a-check-L) would have pointed out the
problem with my directory-rename-series before it broke master[2].
* Testcases 3[ab] (particularly 3a-check-L) provide a simpler testcase
than 12b of t6043 making that one easier to understand.
* There are several complementary testcases to make sure we're not just
fixing those particular issues while regressing in the opposite
direction.
* There are also a pair of tests for the special case when a merge
results in a skippable update AND the user has dirty modifications to
the path.

If a cherry-pick or merge with a rename results in a skippable update
(due to the merged content matching what HEAD already had), but the
working directory is dirty, avoid trying to refresh the index as that
will fail.

Four closely related changes all with the purpose of fixing error handling
in this function:
- fix reported function name in add_cacheinfo error messages
- differentiate between the two error messages
- abort early when we hit the error (stop ignoring return code)
- mark a test which was hitting this error as failing until we get the
right fix
In more detail...
In commit 0424138d5715 ("Fix bogus error message from merge-recursive
error path", 2007-04-01), it was noted that the name of the function which
the error message claimed it was reported from did not match the actual
function name. This was changed to something closer to the real function
name, but it still didn't match the actual function name. Fix the
reported name to match.
Second, the two errors in this function had identical messages, preventing
us from knowing which error had been triggered. Add a couple words to the
second error message to differentiate the two.
Next, make sure callers do not ignore the return code so that it will stop
processing further entries (processing further entries could result in
more output which could cause the error to scroll off the screen, or at
least be missed by the user) and make it clear the error is the cause of
the early abort. These errors should never be triggered in production; if
either one is, it represents a bug in the calling path somewhere and is
likely to have resulted in mis-merged content. The combination of
ignoring of the return code and continuing to print other standard
messages after hitting the error resulted in the following bug report from
Junio: "...the command pretends that everything went well and merged
cleanly in that path...[Behaving] in a buggy and unexplainable way is bad
enough, doing so silently is unexcusable." Fix this.
Finally, there was one test in the testsuite that did hit this error path,
but was passing anyway. This would have been easy to miss since it had a
test_must_fail and thus could have failed for the wrong reason, but in a
separate testing step I added an intentional NULL-dereference to the
codepath where these error messages are printed in order to flush out such
cases. I could modify that test to explicitly check for this error and
fail the test if it is hit, but since this test operates in a bit of a
gray area and needed other changes, I went for a different fix. The gray
area this test operates in is the following: If the merge of a certain
file results in the same version of the file that existed in HEAD, but
there are dirty modifications to the file, is that an error with a
"Refusing to overwrite existing file" expected, or a case where the merge
should succeed since we shouldn't have to touch the dirty file anyway?
Recent discussion on the list leaned towards saying it should be a
success. Therefore, change the expected behavior of this test to match.
As a side effect, this makes the failed-due-to-hitting-add_cacheinfo-error
very clear, and we can mark the test as test_expect_failure. A subsequent
commit will implement the necessary changes to get this test to pass
again.

If a file on one side of history was renamed, and merely modified on the
other side, then applying a directory rename to the modified side gives us
a rename/rename(1to2) conflict. We should only apply directory renames to
pairs representing either adds or renames.
Making this change means that a directory rename testcase that was
previously reported as a rename/delete conflict will now be reported as a
modify/delete conflict.

Add a testcase showing spurious rename/rename(1to2) conflicts occurring
due to directory rename detection.
Also add a pair of testcases dealing with moving directory hierarchies
around that were suggested by Stefan Beller as "food for thought" during
his review of an earlier patch series, but which actually uncovered a
bug. Round things out with a test that is a cross between the two
testcases that showed existing bugs in order to make sure we aren't
merely addressing problems in isolation but in general.
