bab8d28e77 connect.c: drop path_match function
This function was used for comparing local and remote ref
names during fetch (which makes it a candidate for "most
confusingly named function of the year").

It no longer has any callers, so let's get rid of it.

afe7c5ff1f drop "match" parameter from get_remote_heads
The get_remote_heads function reads the list of remote refs
during git protocol session. It dates all the way back to
def88e9 (Commit first cut at "git-fetch-pack", 2005-07-04).
At that time, the idea was to come up with a list of refs we
were interested in, and then filter the list as we got it
from the remote side.

Later, 1baaae5 (Make maximal use of the remote refs,
2005-10-28) stopped filtering at the get_remote_heads layer,
letting us use the non-matching refs to find common history.

As a result, all callers now simply pass an empty match
list (and any future callers will want to do the same). So
let's drop these now-useless parameters.

e47a8583a2 enable SO_KEEPALIVE for connected TCP sockets
Sockets may never receive notification of some link errors,
causing "git fetch" or similar processes to hang forever.
Enabling keepalive messages allows hung processes to error out
after a few minutes/hours depending on the keepalive settings of
the system.

This is a problem noticed when running non-interactive
cronjobs to mirror repositories using "git fetch".

8d9c50105f Change check_ref_format() to take a flags argument
Change check_ref_format() to take a flags argument that indicates what
is acceptable in the reference name (analogous to "git
check-ref-format"'s "--allow-onelevel" and "--refspec-pattern").  This
is more convenient for callers and also fixes a failure in the test
suite (and likely elsewhere in the code) by enabling "onelevel" and
"refspec-pattern" to be allowed independently of each other.

Also rename check_ref_format() to check_refname_format() to make it
obvious that it deals with refnames rather than references themselves.

7203a2d1ca connect: only log if all attempts failed (ipv4)
In 63a995b (Do not log unless all connect() attempts fail), a
mechanism to only log connection errors if all attempts failed
was introduced for the IPv6 code-path, but not for the IPv4 one.

Introduce a matching mechanism so IPv4-users also benefit from
this noise-reduction.

Move the call to socket after filling in sa, to make it more
apparent that errno can't change in between.

e08afecd7f connect: correctly number ipv6 network adapter
In ba50532, the variable 'cnt' was added to both the IPv6 and the
IPv4 version of git_tcp_connect_sock, intended to identify which
network adapter the connection failed on. But in the IPv6 version,
the variable was never increased, leaving it constantly at zero.

This behaviour isn't very useful, so let's fix it by increasing
the variable at every loop-iteration.

7ffe853b10 connect: let callers know if connection is a socket
They might care because they want to do a half-duplex close.
With pipes, that means simply closing the output descriptor;
with a socket, you must actually call shutdown.

Instead of exposing the magic no_fork child_process struct,
let's encapsulate the test in a function.

5cbf8246d2 connect: treat generic proxy processes like ssh processes
The git_connect function returns two ends of a pipe for
talking with a remote, plus a struct child_process
representing the other end of the pipe. If we have a direct
socket connection, then this points to a special "no_fork"
child process.

The code path for doing git-over-pipes or git-over-ssh sets
up this child process to point to the child git command or
the ssh process. When we call finish_connect eventually, we
check wait() on the command and report its return value.

The code path for git://, on the other hand, always sets it
to no_fork. In the case of a direct TCP connection, this
makes sense; we have no child process. But in the case of a
proxy command (configured by core.gitproxy), we do have a
child process, but we throw away its pid, and therefore
ignore its return code.

Instead, let's keep that information in the proxy case, and
respect its return code, which can help catch some errors
(though depending on your proxy command, it will be errors
reported by the proxy command itself, and not propagated
from git commands. Still, it is probably better to propagate
such errors than to ignore them).

It also means that the child_process field can reliably be
used to determine whether the returned descriptors are
actually a full-duplex socket, which means we should be
using shutdown() instead of a simple close.

4b05548fc0 enums: omit trailing comma for portability
Without this patch at least IBM VisualAge C 5.0 (I have 5.0.2) on AIX
5.1 fails to compile git.

enum style is inconsistent already, with some enums declared on one
line, some over 3 lines with the enum values all on the middle line,
sometimes with 1 enum value per line... and independently of that the
trailing comma is sometimes present and other times absent, often
mixing with/without trailing comma styles in a single file, and
sometimes in consecutive enum declarations.

Clearly, omitting the comma is the more portable style, and this patch
changes all enum declarations to use the portable omitted dangling
comma style consistently.

layer. We continue to treat plain paths and "host:path"

2af202be3d Fix various sparse warnings in the git source code
There are a few remaining ones, but this fixes the trivial ones. It boils
down to two main issues that sparse complains about:

 - warning: Using plain integer as NULL pointer

   Sparse doesn't like you using '0' instead of 'NULL'. For various good
   reasons, not the least of which is just the visual confusion. A NULL
   pointer is not an integer, and that whole "0 works as NULL" is a
   historical accident and not very pretty.

   A few of these remain: zlib is a total mess, and Z_NULL is just a 0.
   I didn't touch those.

 - warning: symbol 'xyz' was not declared. Should it be static?

   Sparse wants to see declarations for any functions you export. A lack
   of a declaration tends to mean that you should either add one, or you
   should mark the function 'static' to show that it's in file scope.

   A few of these remain: I only did the ones that should obviously just
   be made static.

That 'wt_status_submodule_summary' one is debatable. It has a few related
flags (like 'wt_status_use_color') which _are_ declared, and are used by
builtin-commit.c. So maybe we'd like to export it at some point, but it's
not declared now, and not used outside of that file, so 'static' it is in
this patch.

73bb33a94e daemon: Strictly parse the "extra arg" part of the command
Since 1.4.4.5 (49ba83fb67 "Add virtualization support to git-daemon")
git daemon enters an infinite loop and never terminates if a client
hides any extra arguments in the initial request line which is not
exactly "\0host=blah\0".

Since that change, a client must never insert additional extra
arguments, or attempt to use any argument other than "host=", as
any daemon will get stuck parsing the request line and will never
complete the request.

Since the client can't tell if the daemon is patched or not, it
is not possible to know if additional extra args might actually be
able to be safely requested.

If we ever need to extend the git daemon protocol to support a new
feature, we may have to do something like this to the exchange:

  # If both support git:// v2
  #
  C: 000cgit://v2
  S: 0010ok host user
  C: 0018host git.kernel.org
  C: 0027git-upload-pack /pub/linux-2.6.git
  S: ...git-upload-pack header...

  # If client supports git:// v2, server does not:
  #
  C: 000cgit://v2
  S: <EOF>

  C: 003bgit-upload-pack /pub/linux-2.6.git\0host=git.kernel.org\0
  S: ...git-upload-pack header...

This requires the client to create two TCP connections to talk to
an older git daemon, however all daemons since the introduction of
daemon.c will safely reject the unknown "git://v2" command request,
so the client can quite easily determine the server supports an
older protocol.

36ad53ffee connect.c: Support PuTTY plink and TortoisePlink as SSH on Windows
OpenSSH uses -p to specify custom ports, while PuTTY plink and
TortoisePlink use -P. Git now detects if plink is in GIT_SSH and
modify its flags as necessary.

We call plink with -batch, so that it will error out with an error
message instead of waiting for user input.  As reported in msysGit
issue 96, plink wants to interact with the user asking if a host
key should be accepted, but this just blocks the terminal, since
plink tries to get the answer from stdin.  However, stdin is
already connected to Git that wants to send input to the remote
command.

But we do not pass -batch to TortoisePlink, because TortoisePlink
uses a GUI to communicate with the user, and it does not understand
-batch.

8f1482536a connect.c: stricter port validation, silence compiler warning
In addition to checking if the provided port is numeric, also check
that the string isn't empty and that the port number is within the
valid range.  Incidentally, this silences a compiler warning about
ignoring strtol's return value.

a807328979 connect.c: add a way for git-daemon to pass an error back to client
The current behavior of git-daemon is to simply close the connection on
any error condition. This leaves the client without any information as
to the cause of the failed fetch/push/etc.

This patch allows get_remote_heads to accept a line prefixed with "ERR"
that it can display to the user in an informative fashion. Once clients
can understand this ERR line, git-daemon can be made to properly report
"repository not found", "permission denied", or other errors.

Example

S: ERR No matching repository.
C: fatal: remote error: No matching repository.

59c69c0c65 make alloc_ref_from_str() the new alloc_ref()
With all calls to alloc_ref() gone, we can remove it and then we're free
to give alloc_ref_from_str() the shorter name.  It's a much nicer
interface, as the callers always need to have a name string when they
allocate a ref anyway and don't need to calculate and pass its length+1
any more.

b0b44bc7b2 use alloc_ref_from_str() everywhere
Replace pairs of alloc_ref() and strcpy() with alloc_ref_from_str(),
simplifying the code.

In connect.c, also a pair of alloc_ref() and memcpy() is replaced --
the additional cost of a strlen() call should not have too much of an
impact.  Consistency and simplicity are more important.

In remote.c, the code was allocating 11 bytes more than needed for
the name part, but I couldn't see them being used for anything.

40c155ff14 push: prepare sender to receive extended ref information from the receiver
"git push" enhancement allows the receiving end to report not only its own
refs but refs in repositories it borrows from via the alternate object
store mechanism.  By telling the sender that objects reachable from these
extra refs are already complete in the receiving end, the number of
objects that need to be transfered can be cut down.

These entries are sent over the wire with string ".have", instead of the
actual names of the refs.  This string was chosen so that they are ignored
by older programs at the sending end.  If we sent some random but valid
looking refnames for these entries, "matching refs" rule (triggered when
running "git push" without explicit refspecs, where the sender learns what
refs the receiver has, and updates only the ones with the names of the
refs the sender also has) and "delete missing" rule (triggered when "git
push --mirror" is used, where the sender tells the receiver to delete the
refs it itself does not have) would try to update/delete them, which is
not what we want.

This prepares the send-pack (and "push" that runs native protocol) to
accept extended existing ref information and make use of it.  The ".have"
entries are excluded from ref matching rules, and are exempt from deletion
rule while pushing with --mirror option, but are still used for pack
generation purposes by providing more "bottom" range commits.

ef90d6d420 Provide git_config with a callback-data parameter
git_config() only had a function parameter, but no callback data
parameter.  This assumes that all callback functions only modify
global variables.

With this patch, every callback gets a void * parameter, and it is hoped
that this will help the libification effort.

8e0f70033b Avoid unnecessary "if-before-free" tests.
This change removes all obvious useless if-before-free tests.
E.g., it replaces code like this:

        if (some_expression)
                free (some_expression);

with the now-equivalent:

        free (some_expression);

It is equivalent not just because POSIX has required free(NULL)
to work for a long time, but simply because it has worked for
so long that no reasonable porting target fails the test.
Here's some evidence from nearly 1.5 years ago:

    http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-patches/2006-October/031544.html

FYI, the change below was prepared by running the following:

  git ls-files -z | xargs -0 \
  perl -0x3b -pi -e \
    's/\bif\s*\(\s*(\S+?)(?:\s*!=\s*NULL)?\s*\)\s+(free\s*\(\s*\1\s*\))/$2/s'

Note however, that it doesn't handle brace-enclosed blocks like
"if (x) { free (x); }".  But that's ok, since there were none like
that in git sources.

Beware: if you do use the above snippet, note that it can
produce syntactically invalid C code.  That happens when the
affected "if"-statement has a matching "else".
E.g., it would transform this

  if (x)
    free (x);
  else
    foo ();

into this:

  free (x);
  else
    foo ();

There were none of those here, either.

If you're interested in automating detection of the useless
tests, you might like the useless-if-before-free script in gnulib:
[it *does* detect brace-enclosed free statements, and has a --name=S
 option to make it detect free-like functions with different names]

  http://git.sv.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=gnulib.git;a=blob;f=build-aux/useless-if-before-free

Addendum:
  Remove one more (in imap-send.c), spotted by Jean-Luc Herren <jlh@gmx.ch>.
