  • adfa3c9 Makefile: Set htmldir to match the default HTML docs location under MSYS
  • 159ea1a t7800: Use "test_cmp_text" in all places where "echo" is used

The starred ones (*) are supposedly already upstream.
I picked the necessary ones here.

The omission of 75e415e is on purpose as that feature is not ready yet.

This way the libraries get properly installed into the "site_perl"
directory and we just have to move them out of the "mingw" directory.

While "echo", being a Bash built-in, produces Unix line-endings, "git" and
"cat" produce DOS line-endings on MSYS, so ignore line-ending differences.

… MSYS

While msysgit uses cat 2.0, mingwGitDevEnv uses cat 5.97, currently. A
change part of the latter version [1] makes cat use the "same rules as
other programs to decide whether to use binary I/O". As a result, cat 5.97
behaves like e.g. awk with respect to which line endings are used if
stdout is redirected to a file, and those are DOS line endings. Ignore
line endings when comparing the test result to work around this.

Just a question to double check: Did you actually cherry-pick the commits that are supposed to be upstream, to verify that they really are (they should either result in a no-op or minor conflict, if upstream has a slightly reworked patch applied)?

Nevermind, I just verified that the starred commits are indeed upstream.

The main loop in strbuf_utf8_replace() could summed up as:

  while ('src' is still valid) {
    1) advance 'src' to copy ANSI escape sequences
    2) advance 'src' to copy/replace visible characters
  }

The problem is after #1, 'src' may have reached the end of the string
(so 'src' points to NUL) and #2 will continue to copy that NUL as if
it's a normal character. Because the output is stored in a strbuf,
this NUL accounted in the 'len' field as well. Check after #1 and
break the loop if necessary.

The test does not look obvious, but the combination of %>>() should
make a call trace like this

  show_log()
  pretty_print_commit()
  format_commit_message()
  strbuf_expand()
  format_commit_item()
  format_and_pad_commit()
  strbuf_utf8_replace()

where %C(auto)%d would insert a color reset escape sequence in the end
of the string given to strbuf_utf8_replace() and show_log() uses
fwrite() to send everything to stdout (including the incorrect NUL
inserted by strbuf_utf8_replace)

The collect_parents() function now is responsible for

 1. parsing the commits given on the command line into a list of
    commits to be merged;

 2. filtering these parents into independent ones; and

 3. optionally calling fmt_merge_msg() via prepare_merge_message()
    to prepare an auto-generated merge log message, using fake
    contents that FETCH_HEAD would have had if these commits were
    fetched from the current repository with "git pull . $args..."

Make "git merge FETCH_HEAD" to be the same as the traditional

    git merge "$(git fmt-merge-msg <.git/FETCH_HEAD)" $commits

invocation of the command in "git pull", where $commits are the ones
that appear in FETCH_HEAD that are not marked as not-for-merge, by
making it do a bit more, specifically:

 - noticing "FETCH_HEAD" is the only "commit" on the command line
   and picking the commits that are not marked as not-for-merge as
   the list of commits to be merged (substitute for step #1 above);

 - letting the resulting list fed to step #2 above;

 - doing the step #3 above, using the contents of the FETCH_HEAD
   instead of fake contents crafted from the list of commits parsed
   in the step #1 above.

Note that this changes the semantics.  "git merge FETCH_HEAD" has
always behaved as if the first commit in the FETCH_HEAD file were
directly specified on the command line, creating a two-way merge
whose auto-generated merge log said "merge commit xyz".  With this
change, if the previous fetch was to grab multiple branches (e.g.
"git fetch $there topic-a topic-b"), the new world order is to
create an octopus, behaving as if "git pull $there topic-a topic-b"
were run.  This is a deliberate change to make that happen, and
can be seen in the changes to t3033 tests.

When ac49f5c (rerere "remaining", 2011-02-16) split out a new
helper function check_one_conflict() out of find_conflict()
function, so that the latter will use the returned value from the
new helper to update the loop control variable that is an index into
active_cache[], the new variable incremented the index by one too
many when it found a path with only stage #1 entry at the very end
of active_cache[].

This "strange" return value does not have any effect on the loop
control of two callers of this function, as they all notice that
active_nr+2 is larger than active_nr just like active_nr+1 is, but
nevertheless it puzzles the readers when they are trying to figure
out what the function is trying to do.

In fact, there is no need to do an early return.  The code that
follows after skipping the stage #1 entry is fully prepared to
handle a case where the entry is at the very end of active_cache[].

Help future readers from unnecessary confusion by dropping an early
return.  We skip the stage #1 entry, and if there are stage #2 and
stage git-for-windows#3 entries for the same path, we diagnose the path as
THREE_STAGED (otherwise we say PUNTED), and then we skip all entries
for the same path.

A conflicted index can have multiple stage #1 entries when dealing
with a criss-cross merge and using the "resolve" merge strategy.

Plug the leak by reading only the first one of the same stage
entries.

Strictly speaking, this fix does change the semantics, in that we
used to use the last stage #1 entry as the common ancestor when
doing the plain-vanilla three-way merge, but with the leak fix, we
will use the first stage #1 entry.  But it is not a grave backward
compatibility breakage.  Either way, we are arbitrarily picking one
of multiple stage #1 entries and using it, ignoring others, and
there is no meaning in the ordering of these stage #1 entries.

We generate the squash commit message incrementally running
a sed script once for each commit. It parses "This is
a combination of <N> commits" from the first line of the
existing message, adds one to <N>, and uses the result as
the number of our current message.

Since f2d1706 (i18n: rebase-interactive: mark comments of
squash for translation, 2016-06-17), the first line may be
localized, and sed uses a pretty liberal regex, looking for:

  /^#.*([0-9][0-9]*)/

The "[0-9][0-9]*" tries to match double digits, but it
doesn't quite work.  The first ".*" is greedy, so if you
have:

  This is a combination of 10 commits.

it will eat up "This is a combination of 1", leaving "0" to
match the first "[0-9]" digit, and then skipping the
optional match of "[0-9]*".

As a result, the count resets every 10 commits, and a
15-commit squash would end up as:

  # This is a combination of 5 commits.
  # This is the 1st commit message:
  ...
  # This is the commit message #2:
  ... and so on ..
  # This is the commit message #10:
  ...
  # This is the commit message #1:
  ...
  # This is the commit message #2:
  ... etc, up to 5 ...

We can fix this by making the ".*" less greedy. Instead of
depending on ".*?" working portably, we can just limit the
match to non-digit characters, which accomplishes the same
thing.

Amend my change earlier in this series ("grep: add support for the
PCRE v1 JIT API", 2017-04-11) to un-break the build on PCRE v1
versions later than 8.31 compiled without --enable-jit.

As explained in that change and a later compatibility change in this
series ("grep: un-break building with PCRE < 8.32", 2017-05-10) the
pcre_jit_exec() function is a faster path to execute the JIT.

Unfortunately there's no compatibility stub for that function compiled
into the library if pcre_config(PCRE_CONFIG_JIT, &ret) would return 0,
and no macro that can be used to check for it, so the only portable
option to support builds without --enable-jit is via a new
NO_LIBPCRE1_JIT=UnfortunatelyYes Makefile option[1].

Another option would be to make the JIT opt-in via
USE_LIBPCRE1_JIT=YesPlease, after all it's not a default option of
PCRE v1.

I think it makes more sense to make it opt-out since even though it's
not a default option, most packagers of PCRE seem to turn it on by
default, with the notable exception of the MinGW package.

Make the MinGW platform work by default by changing the build defaults
to turn on NO_LIBPCRE1_JIT=UnfortunatelyYes. It is the only platform
that turns on USE_LIBPCRE=YesPlease by default, see commit
df5218b ("config.mak.uname: support MSys2", 2016-01-13) for that
change.

We turn off ASan's leak detection by default in the test
suite because it's too noisy. But we don't do so until
part-way through test-lib. This is before we've run any
tests, but after we do our initial "./git" to see if the
binary has even been built.

When built with clang, this seems to work fine. However,
using "gcc -fsanitize=address", the leak checker seems to
complain more aggressively:

  $ ./git
  ...
  ==5352==ERROR: LeakSanitizer: detected memory leaks
  Direct leak of 2 byte(s) in 1 object(s) allocated from:
      #0 0x7f120e7afcf8 in malloc (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libasan.so.3+0xc1cf8)
      #1 0x559fc2a3ce41 in do_xmalloc /home/peff/compile/git/wrapper.c:60

      #7 0x7f120dabd2b0 in __libc_start_main (/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6+0x202b0)

This is a leak in the sense that we never free it, but it's
in a global that is meant to last the whole program. So it's
not really interesting or in need of fixing. And at any
rate, mentioning leaks outside of the test_expect blocks is
certainly unwelcome, as it pollutes stderr.

Let's bump the setting of ASAN_OPTIONS higher in test-lib.sh
to catch our initial "can we even run git?" test.  While
we're at it, we can add a comment to make it a bit less
inscrutable.

It was recently reported that concurrent reads and writes may cause the
reftable backend to segfault. The root cause of this is that we do not
properly keep track of reftable readers across reloads.

Suppose that you have a reftable iterator and then decide to reload the
stack while iterating through the iterator. When the stack has been
rewritten since we have created the iterator, then we would end up
discarding a subset of readers that may still be in use by the iterator.
The consequence is that we now try to reference deallocated memory,
which of course segfaults.

One way to trigger this is in t5616, where some background maintenance
jobs have been leaking from one test into another. This leads to stack
traces like the following one:

While it is somewhat awkward that the maintenance processes survive
tests in the first place, it is totally expected that reftables should
work alright with concurrent writers. Seemingly they don't.

The only underlying resource that we need to care about in this context
is the reftable reader, which is responsible for reading a single table
from disk. These readers get discarded immediately (unless reused) when
calling `reftable_stack_reload()`, which is wrong. We can only close
them once we know that there are no iterators using them anymore.

Prepare for a fix by converting the reftable readers to be refcounted.

While it is somewhat awkward that the maintenance processes survive
tests in the first place, it is totally expected that reftables should
work alright with concurrent writers. Seemingly they don't.

The only underlying resource that we need to care about in this context
is the reftable reader, which is responsible for reading a single table
from disk. These readers get discarded immediately (unless reused) when
calling `reftable_stack_reload()`, which is wrong. We can only close
them once we know that there are no iterators using them anymore.

Prepare for a fix by converting the reftable readers to be refcounted.

It was recently reported that concurrent reads and writes may cause the
reftable backend to segfault. The root cause of this is that we do not
properly keep track of reftable readers across reloads.

Suppose that you have a reftable iterator and then decide to reload the
stack while iterating through the iterator. When the stack has been
rewritten since we have created the iterator, then we would end up
discarding a subset of readers that may still be in use by the iterator.
The consequence is that we now try to reference deallocated memory,
which of course segfaults.

One way to trigger this is in t5616, where some background maintenance
jobs have been leaking from one test into another. This leads to stack
traces like the following one:

The incremental MIDX bitmap work was done prior to 9d4855e
(midx-write: fix leaking buffer, 2024-09-30), and causes test failures
in t5334 in a post-9d4855eef3 world.

The leak looks like:

    Direct leak of 264 byte(s) in 1 object(s) allocated from:

, and is a result of us not freeing the resources corresponding to the
bitmap's base layer, if one was present.

Rectify that leak by calling the newly-introduced free_bitmap_index()
function on the base layer to ensure that its resources are also freed.

This one is a little bit more curious. In t6112, we have a test that
exercises the `git rev-list --filter` option with invalid filters. We
execute git-rev-list(1) via `test_must_fail`, which means that we check
for leaks even though Git exits with an error code. This causes the
following leak:

This leak is valid, as we call `die()` and do not clean up the memory at
all. But what's curious is that this is the only leak reported, because
we don't clean up any other allocated memory, either, and I have no idea
why the leak sanitizer treats this buffer specially.

In any case, we can work around the leak by shuffling things around a
bit. Instead of calling `gently_parse_list_objects_filter()` and dying
after we have modified the filter spec, we simply do so beforehand. Like
this we don't allocate the buffer in the error case, which makes the
reported leak go away.

It's not pretty, but it manages to make t6112 leak free.

When running t5601 with the leak checker enabled we can see a hang in
our CI systems. This hang seems to be system-specific, as I cannot
reproduce it on my own machine.

As it turns out, the issue is in those testcases that exercise cloning
of `~repo`-style paths. All of the testcases that hang eventually end up
interpreting "repo" as the username and will call getpwnam(3p) with that
username. That should of course be fine, and getpwnam(3p) should just
return an error. But instead, the leak sanitizer seems to be recursing
while handling a call to `free()` in the NSS modules:

Note that this stack is more than 260000 function calls deep. Run under
the debugger this will eventually segfault, but in our CI systems it
seems like this just hangs forever.

I assume that this is a bug either in the leak sanitizer or in glibc, as
I cannot reproduce it on my machine. In any case, let's work around the
bug for now by marking those tests with the "!SANITIZE_LEAK" prereq.

There's a race with LSan when spawning threads and one of the threads
calls die(). We worked around one such problem with index-pack in the
previous commit, but it exists in git-grep, too. You can see it with:

  make SANITIZE=leak THREAD_BARRIER_PTHREAD=YesOnLinux
  cd t
  ./t0003-attributes.sh --stress

which fails pretty quickly with:

  ==git==4096424==ERROR: LeakSanitizer: detected memory leaks

  Direct leak of 32 byte(s) in 1 object(s) allocated from:

      #7 0x7f906dd1a677 in __clone3 ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/clone3.S:78

As with the previous commit, we can fix this by inserting a barrier that
makes sure all threads have finished their setup before continuing. But
there's one twist in this case: the thread which calls die() is not one
of the worker threads, but the main thread itself!

So we need the main thread to wait in the barrier, too, until all
threads have gotten to it. And thus we initialize the barrier for
num_threads+1, to account for all of the worker threads plus the main
one.

If we then test as above, t0003 should run indefinitely.

In 1b9e9be (csum-file.c: use unsafe SHA-1 implementation when
available, 2024-09-26) we have converted our `struct hashfile` to use
the unsafe SHA1 backend, which results in a significant speedup. One
needs to be careful with how to use that structure now though because
callers need to consistently use either the safe or unsafe variants of
SHA1, as otherwise one can easily trigger corruption.

As it turns out, we have one inconsistent usage in our tree because we
directly initialize `struct hashfile_checkpoint::ctx` with the safe
variant of SHA1, but end up writing to that context with the unsafe
ones. This went unnoticed so far because our CI systems do not exercise
different hash functions for these two backends, and consequently safe
and unsafe variants are equivalent. But when using SHA1DC as safe and
OpenSSL as unsafe backend this leads to a crash an t1050:

Our CI jobs sometimes see false positive leaks like this:

This is not a leak in our code, but appears to be a race between one
thread calling exit() while another one is in LSan's stack setup code.
You can reproduce it easily by running t0003 or t5309 with --stress
(these trigger it because of the threading in git-grep and index-pack
respectively).

This may be a bug in LSan, but regardless of whether it is eventually
fixed, it is useful to work around it so that we stop seeing these false
positives.

We can recognize it by the mention of the sanitizer functions in the
DEDUP_TOKEN line. With this patch, the scripts mentioned above should
run with --stress indefinitely.

The very bottom of the stack being the `rehash()` method from
`hashmap.c` as called within the `name-hash` API made me look at where
these hashmaps were being used in the sparse index logic. These were
being copied across indexes, which seems dangerous. Indeed, clearing
these hashmaps and setting them as not initialized fixes the segfault.

The second commit is a response to a test failure that happens in
`t1092-sparse-checkout-compatibility.sh` where `git stash pop` starts to
fail because the underlying `git checkout-index` process fails due to
colliding files. Passing the `-f` flag appears to work, but it's unclear
why this name-hash change causes that change in behavior.

socket name length we try to first change the directory into the parent
folder before creating the socket to reduce the length of the name. When
this fails we error out of `unix_sockaddr_init()` with an error code,
which indicates to the caller that the context has not been initialized.
Consequently, they don't release that context.

This leads to a memory leak: when we have already populated the context
with the original directory that we need to chdir(3p) back into, but
then the chdir(3p) into the socket's parent directory fails, then we
won't release the original directory's path. The leak is exposed by
t0301, but only via Meson with `meson setup -Dsanitize=leak`:

As the `branch` variable may contain a string constant obtained from
parsing command line arguments we cannot free the leaking variable
directly. Instead, introduce a new `branch_to_free` variable that only
ever gets assigned the allocated string and free that one to plug the
leak.

is long enough to make the socket name length exceed the maximum socket

Submodule merges are, in general, similar to other merges based on oid
three-way-merge. When a conflict happens, however, Git has two special
cases (introduced in 68d03e4) on handling the conflict before
yielding it to the user. From the merge-ort and merge-recursive sources:

- "Case #1: a is contained in b or vice versa": both strategies try to
perform a fast-forward in the submodules if the commit referred by the
conflicted submodule is descendant of another;

- "Case #2: There are one or more merges that contain a and b in the
submodule.  If there is only one, then present it as a suggestion to the
user, but leave it marked unmerged so the user needs to confirm the
resolution."

Add a small paragraph on merge-strategies.adoc describing this behavior.

The very bottom of the stack being the `rehash()` method from
`hashmap.c` as called within the `name-hash` API made me look at where
these hashmaps were being used in the sparse index logic. These were
being copied across indexes, which seems dangerous. Indeed, clearing
these hashmaps and setting them as not initialized fixes the segfault.

The second commit is a response to a test failure that happens in
`t1092-sparse-checkout-compatibility.sh` where `git stash pop` starts to
fail because the underlying `git checkout-index` process fails due to
colliding files. Passing the `-f` flag appears to work, but it's unclear
why this name-hash change causes that change in behavior.

The very bottom of the stack being the `rehash()` method from
`hashmap.c` as called within the `name-hash` API made me look at where
these hashmaps were being used in the sparse index logic. These were
being copied across indexes, which seems dangerous. Indeed, clearing
these hashmaps and setting them as not initialized fixes the segfault.

The second commit is a response to a test failure that happens in
`t1092-sparse-checkout-compatibility.sh` where `git stash pop` starts to
fail because the underlying `git checkout-index` process fails due to
colliding files. Passing the `-f` flag appears to work, but it's unclear
why this name-hash change causes that change in behavior.

An internal customer reported a segfault when running `git
sparse-checkout set` with the `index.sparse` config enabled. I was
unable to reproduce it locally, but with their help we debugged into the
failing process and discovered the following stacktrace:

The GitHub's CI workflow uses 'actions/checkout@v4' to checkout the
repository. This action defaults to using the GitHub REST API to obtain
the repository if the `git` executable isn't available.

The step to build Git in the GitHub workflow can be summarized as:

  ...
  - uses: actions/checkout@v4 #1
  - run: ci/install-dependencies.sh #2
  ...
  - run: sudo --preserve-env --set-home --user=builder ci/run-build-and-tests.sh #3
  ...

Step #1, clones the repository, since the `git` executable isn't present
at this step, it uses GitHub's REST API to obtain a tar of the
repository.

Step #2, installs all dependencies, which includes the `git` executable.

Step #3, sets up the build, which includes setting up meson in the meson
job. At this point the `git` executable is present.

This means while the `git` executable is present, the repository doesn't
contain the '.git' folder. To keep both the CI's (GitLab and GitHub)
behavior consistent and to ensure that the build is performed on a
real-world scenario, install `git` before the repository is checked out.
This ensures that 'actions/checkout@v4' will clone the repository
instead of using a tarball. We also update the package cache while
installing `git`, this is because some distros will fail to locate the
package without updating the cache.
