In an early part of sha1dc/sha1.c, the code checks the endianness of
the target platform by inspecting common CPP macros defined on
big-endian boxes, and sets BIGENDIAN macro to 1. If these common
CPP macros are not defined, the code declares that the target
platform is little endian and does nothing (most notably, it does
not #undef its BIGENDIAN macro).
The code that does so even has this comment
Note that all MSFT platforms are little endian,
so none of these will be defined under the MSC compiler.
and later, the defined-ness of the BIGENDIAN macro is used to switch
the implementation of sha1_load() macro.
One thing the code did not anticipate is that somebody might define
BIGENDIAN macro in some header it includes to 0 on a little-endian
target platform. Because the auto-detection based on common macros
do not touch BIGENDIAN macro when it detects a little-endian target,
such a definition is still valid and then defined-ness test will say
"Ah, BIGENDIAN is defined" and takes the wrong sha1_load().
As this auto-detection logic pretends as if it owns the BIGENDIAN
macro by ignoring the setting that may come from the outside and by
not explicitly unsetting when it decides that it is working for a
little-endian target, solve this problem without breaking that
assumption. Namely, we can rename BIGENDIAN this code uses to
something much less generic, i.e. SHA1DC_BIGENDIAN. For extra
protection, undef the macro on a little-endian target.
It is possible to work it around by instead #undef BIGENDIAN in
the auto-detection code, but a macro (or include) that happens later
in the code can be implemented in terms of BIGENDIAN on Windows and
it is possible that the implementation gets upset when it sees the
CPP macro undef'ed (instead of set to 0). Renaming the private macro
intended to be used only in this file to a less generic name relieves
us from having to worry about that kind of breakage.

The encode_in_pack_object_header() writes a variable-length
header to an output buffer, but it doesn't actually know
long the buffer is. At first glance, this looks like it
might be possible to overflow.
In practice, this is probably impossible. The smallest
buffer we use is 10 bytes, which would hold the header for
an object up to 2^67 bytes. Obviously we're not likely to
see such an object, but we might worry that an object could
lie about its size (causing us to overflow before we realize
it does not actually have that many bytes). But the argument
is passed as a uintmax_t. Even on systems that have __int128
available, uintmax_t is typically restricted to 64-bit by
the ABI.
So it's unlikely that a system exists where this could be
exploited. Still, it's easy enough to use a normal out/len
pair and make sure we don't write too far. That protects the
hypothetical 128-bit system, makes it harder for callers to
accidentally specify a too-small buffer, and makes the
resulting code easier to audit.
Note that the one caller in fast-import tried to catch such
a case, but did so _after_ the call (at which point we'd
have already overflowed!). This check can now go away.

When we have to write a sha1 with a newline, we do so by

We use snprintf but don't bother to check the output, since
we know it will fit. However, we should use xsnprintf() in
such a case so that we're notified if our assumption turns
out to be wrong (and to make it easier to audit for

Change the tag, branch & for-each-ref commands to have a --no-contains
option in addition to their longstanding --contains options.
This allows for finding the last-good rollout tag given a known-bad
<commit>. Given a hypothetically bad commit cf5c7253e0, the git
version to revert to can be found with this hacky two-liner:
(git tag -l 'v[0-9]*'; git tag -l --contains cf5c7253e0 'v[0-9]*') |
sort | uniq -c | grep -E '^ *1 ' | awk '{print $2}' | tail -n 10
With this new --no-contains option the same can be achieved with:
git tag -l --no-contains cf5c7253e0 'v[0-9]*' | sort | tail -n 10
As the filtering machinery is shared between the tag, branch &
for-each-ref commands, implement this for those commands too. A
practical use for this with "branch" is e.g. finding branches which
were branched off between v2.8.0 and v2.10.0:
git branch --contains v2.8.0 --no-contains v2.10.0
The "describe" command also has a --contains option, but its semantics
are unrelated to what tag/branch/for-each-ref use --contains for. A
--no-contains option for "describe" wouldn't make any sense, other
than being exactly equivalent to not supplying --contains at all,
which would be confusing at best.
Add a --without option to "tag" as an alias for --no-contains, for
consistency with --with and --contains. The --with option is
undocumented, and possibly the only user of it is
Junio (<xmqqefy71iej.fsf@gitster.mtv.corp.google.com>). But it's
trivial to support, so let's do that.
The additions to the the test suite are inverse copies of the
corresponding --contains tests. With this change --no-contains for
tag, branch & for-each-ref is just as well tested as the existing
--contains option.
In addition to those tests, add a test for "tag" which asserts that
--no-contains won't find tree/blob tags, which is slightly
unintuitive, but consistent with how --contains works & is documented.

Change the "tag" command to implicitly turn on its --list mode when
provided with a list-like option such as --contains, --points-at etc.
This is for consistency with how "branch" works. When "branch" is
given a list-like option, such as --contains, it implicitly provides
--list. Before this change "tag" would error out on those sorts of
invocations. I.e. while both of these worked for "branch":
git branch --contains v2.8.0 <pattern>
git branch --list --contains v2.8.0 <pattern>
Only the latter form worked for "tag":
git tag --contains v2.8.0 '*rc*'
git tag --list --contains v2.8.0 '*rc*'
Now "tag", like "branch", will implicitly supply --list when a
list-like option is provided, and no other conflicting non-list
options (such as -d) are present on the command-line.
Spelunking through the history via:
git log --reverse -p -G'only allowed with' -- '*builtin*tag*c'
Reveals that there was no good reason for not allowing this in the
first place. The --contains option added in 32c35cfb1e ("git-tag: Add
--contains option", 2009-01-26) made this an error. All the other
subsequent list-like options that were added copied its pattern of
making this usage an error.
The only tests that break as a result of this change are tests that
were explicitly checking that this "branch-like" usage wasn't
permitted. Change those failing tests to check that this invocation
mode is permitted, add extra tests for the list-like options we
weren't testing, and tests to ensure that e.g. we don't toggle the
list mode in the presence of other conflicting non-list options.
With this change errors messages such as "--contains option is only
allowed with -l" don't make sense anymore, since options like
--contain turn on -l. Instead we error out when list-like options such
as --contain are used in conjunction with conflicting options such as
-d or -v.

Change the documentation for --list so that it's described as a
toggle, not as an option that takes a <pattern> as an argument.
Junio initially documented this in b867c7c23a ("git-tag: -l to list
tags (usability).", 2006-02-17), but later Jeff King changed "tag" to
accept multiple patterns in 588d0e834b ("tag: accept multiple patterns
for --list", 2011-06-20).
However, documenting this as "-l <pattern>" was never correct, as
these both worked before Jeff's change:
git tag -l 'v*'
git tag 'v*' -l
One would expect an option that was documented like that to only
accept:
git tag --list
git tag --list 'v*rc*'
And after Jeff's change, one that took multiple patterns:
git tag --list 'v*rc*' --list '*2.8*'
But since it's actually a toggle all of these work as well, and
produce identical output to the last example above:
git tag --list 'v*rc*' '*2.8*'
git tag --list 'v*rc*' '*2.8*' --list --list --list
git tag --list 'v*rc*' '*2.8*' --list -l --list -l --list
Now the documentation is more in tune with how the "branch" command
describes its --list option since commit cddd127b9a ("branch:
introduce --list option", 2011-08-28).
Change the test suite to assert that these invocations work for the
cases that weren't already being tested for.

Includes a --dump option to dump the created hashmaps to

Includes a --analyze option to analyze performance of both
code paths over a range of index sizes to help you find a
lower bound for the LAZY_THREAD_COST in name-hash.c.
For example, passing "-a 4000" will set "istate.cache_nr"
to 4000 and then try the multi-threaded code -- probably
giving 2 threads with 2000 entries each. It will then
run both the single-threaded (1x4000) and the multi-threaded
(2x2000) and compare the times. It will then repeat the
test with 8000, 12000, and etc. so that you can see the

Improve performance of lazy_init_name_hash() when
ignore_case is set. Teach name-hash to build the
istate.name_hash and istate.dir_hash simultaneously
using a forward-diving technique on the pathname
of the index_entry, rather than adding name_hash
entries and then searching backwards in the pathname
for parent directories.
This borrows algorithm ideas from clear_ce_flags_{1,dir}.
Multiple threads are used with the new algorithm to
speed hashmap construction.
This new code path is only used when threads are present
(a compiler settings) and when the index is large enough
to warrant the pthread complexity.
The code in clear_ce_flags_dir() uses a linear search to
find the adjacent index entries with the same prefix; a
binary search is used here handle_range_dir() to further
speed things up.

Jan Palus noticed that some here-doc are spelled incorrectly,
resulting the entire remainder of the test snippet being slurped
into the "expect" file as if it were data, e.g. in this sequence
cat >expect <<EOF &&
... expectation ...
EOF
git $cmd_being_tested >actual &&
test_cmp expect actual
the last command of the test is "cat" that sends everything to
'expect' and succeeds.
Fixing these issues in t7004 and t7030 reveals that "git tag -v"
and "git verify-tag" with their --format option do not work as the
test was expecting originally. Instead of showing both valid tags
and tags with incorrect signatures on their output, tags that do not
pass verification are omitted from the output. Another breakage that
is uncovered is that these tests must be restricted to environment
where gpg is available.
Arguably, that is a safer behaviour, and because the format
specifiers like %(tag) do not have a way to show if the signature
verifies correctly, the command with the --format option cannot be
used to get a list of tags annotated with their signature validity
anyway.
For now, let's fix the here-doc syntax, update the expectation to
match the reality, and update the test prerequisite.
Maybe later when we extend the --format language available to "git
tag -v" and "git verify-tag" to include things like "%(gpg:status)",
we may want to change the behaviour so that piping a list of tag
names into
xargs git verify-tag --format='%(gpg:status) %(tag)'
becomes a good way to produce such a list, but that is a separate
topic.
