c6bd2a1dec http-push: stop using name_path
The graph traversal code here passes along a name_path to
build up the pathname at which we find each blob. But we
never actually do anything with the resulting names, making
it a waste of code and memory.

This usage came in aa1dbc9 (Update http-push functionality,
2006-03-07), and originally the result was passed to
"add_object" (which stored it, but didn't really use it,
either). But we stopped using that function in 1f1e895 (Add
"named object array" concept, 2006-06-19) in favor of
storing just the objects themselves.

Moreover, the generation of the name in process_tree() is
buggy. It sticks "name" onto the end of the name_path linked
list, and then passes it down again as it recurses (instead
of "entry.path"). So it's a good thing this was unused, as
the resulting path for "a/b/c/d" would end up as "a/a/a/a".

2b87d3a896 drop strcpy in favor of raw sha1_to_hex
In some cases where we strcpy() the result of sha1_to_hex(),
there's no need; the result goes directly into a printf
statement, and we can simply pass the return value from
sha1_to_hex() directly.

When this code was originally written, sha1_to_hex used a
single buffer, and it was not safe to use it twice within a
single expression. That changed as of dcb3450 (sha1_to_hex()
usage cleanup, 2006-05-03), but this code was never updated.

This drops the magic number for the fixed-size argv arrays,

7d0581a9ab http-push: use strbuf instead of fwrite_buffer
The http-push code defines an fwrite_buffer function for use
as a curl callback; it just writes to a strbuf. There's no
reason we need to use it ourselves, as we know we have a
strbuf. This lets us format directly into it, rather than
dealing with an extra temporary buffer (which required
manual length computation).

While we're here, let's also remove the literal tabs from
the source in favor of "\t", which is more visually obvious.

We account for these strcats in our initial allocation, but
the code is confusing to follow and verify. Let's remember
our original allocation length, and then xsnprintf can
verify that we don't exceed it.

even cleaner) because the code tries to grow the buffer only
when necessary.

ef1286d3c0 use xsnprintf for generating git object headers
We generally use 32-byte buffers to format git's "type size"
header fields. These should not generally overflow unless
you can produce some truly gigantic objects (and our types
come from our internal array of constant strings). But it is
a good idea to use xsnprintf to make sure this is the case.

Note that we slightly modify the interface to
write_sha1_file_prepare, which nows uses "hdrlen" as an "in"
parameter as well as an "out" (on the way in it stores the
allocated size of the header, and on the way out it returns
the ultimate size of the header).

5096d4909f convert trivial sprintf / strcpy calls to xsnprintf
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).

f6786c8dcb http-push: trim trailing newline from remote symref
When we fetch a symbolic ref file from the remote, we get
the whole string "ref: refs/heads/master\n", recognize it by
skipping past the "ref: ", and store the rest. We should
chomp the trailing newline.

This bug was introduced in ae021d8 (use skip_prefix to avoid
magic numbers, 2014-06-18), which did not notice that the
length computation fed to xmemdupz was quietly tweaked by 1
to account for this.

We can solve it by explicitly trimming the newline, which is
more obvious. Note that we use strbuf_rtrim here, which will
actually cut off any trailing whitespace, not just a single
newline. This is a good thing, though, as it makes our
parsing more liberal (and spaces are not valid in refnames
anyway).

67a31f6128 http-push: refactor parsing of remote object names
We get loose object names like "objects/??/..." from the
remote side, and need to convert them to their hex
representation.

The code to do so is rather hard to follow, as it uses some
calculated lengths whose origins are hard to understand and
verify (e.g., the path must be exactly 49 characters long.
why? Why doesn't the strcpy overflow obj_hex, which is the
same length as path?).

We can simplify this a bit by using skip_prefix, using standard
40- and 20-character buffers for hex and binary sha1s, and
adding some comments.

We also drop a totally bogus comment that claims strlcpy
cannot be used because "path" is not NUL-terminated. Right
between a call to strlen(path) and strcpy(path).

ae021d8791 use skip_prefix to avoid magic numbers
It's a common idiom to match a prefix and then skip past it
with a magic number, like:

  if (starts_with(foo, "bar"))
	  foo += 3;

This is easy to get wrong, since you have to count the
prefix string yourself, and there's no compiler check if the
string changes.  We can use skip_prefix to avoid the magic
numbers here.

Note that some of these conversions could be much shorter.
For example:

  if (starts_with(arg, "--foo=")) {
	  bar = arg + 6;
	  continue;
  }

could become:

  if (skip_prefix(arg, "--foo=", &bar))
	  continue;

However, I have left it as:

  if (skip_prefix(arg, "--foo=", &v)) {
	  bar = v;
	  continue;
  }

to visually match nearby cases which need to actually
process the string. Like:

  if (skip_prefix(arg, "--foo=", &v)) {
	  bar = atoi(v);
	  continue;
  }

1bbcc224cc http: refactor options to http_get_*
Over time, the http_get_strbuf function has grown several
optional parameters. We now have a bitfield with multiple
boolean options, as well as an optional strbuf for returning
the content-type of the response. And a future patch in this
series is going to add another strbuf option.

Treating these as separate arguments has a few downsides:

  1. Most call sites need to add extra NULLs and 0s for the
     options they aren't interested in.

  2. The http_get_* functions are actually wrappers around
     2 layers of low-level implementation functions. We have
     to pass these options through individually.

  3. The http_get_strbuf wrapper learned these options, but
     nobody bothered to do so for http_get_file, even though
     it is backed by the same function that does understand
     the options.

Let's consolidate the options into a single struct. For the
common case of the default options, we'll allow callers to
simply pass a NULL for the options struct.

The resulting code is often a few lines longer, but it ends
up being easier to read (and to change as we add new
options, since we do not need to update each call site).

6e454b9a31 clear parsed flag when we free tree buffers
Many code paths will free a tree object's buffer and set it
to NULL after finishing with it in order to keep memory
usage down during a traversal. However, out of 8 sites that
do this, only one actually unsets the "parsed" flag back.
Those sites that don't are setting a trap for later users of
the tree object; even after calling parse_tree, the buffer
will remain NULL, causing potential segfaults.

It is not known whether this is triggerable in the current
code. Most commands do not do an in-memory traversal
followed by actually using the objects again. However, it
does not hurt to be safe for future callers.

In most cases, we can abstract this out to a
"free_tree_buffer" helper. However, there are two
exceptions:

  1. The fsck code relies on the parsed flag to know that we
     were able to parse the object at one point. We can
     switch this to using a flag in the "flags" field.

  2. The index-pack code sets the buffer to NULL but does
     not free it (it is freed by a caller). We should still
     unset the parsed flag here, but we cannot use our
     helper, as we do not want to free the buffer.

67d2a7b5c5 http: simplify http_error helper function
This helper function should really be a one-liner that
prints an error message, but it has ended up unnecessarily
complicated:

  1. We call error() directly when we fail to start the curl
     request, so we must later avoid printing a duplicate
     error in http_error().

     It would be much simpler in this case to just stuff the
     error message into our usual curl_errorstr buffer
     rather than printing it ourselves. This means that
     http_error does not even have to care about curl's exit
     value (the interesting part is in the errorstr buffer
     already).

  2. We return the "ret" value passed in to us, but none of
     the callers actually cares about our return value. We
     can just drop this entirely.

from libcurl. I punted, meant to circle back and fix this, and just
plain forgot about it.

6571225137 http-push: use in_merge_bases() for fast-forward check
The original computed merge-base between HEAD and the remote ref and
checked if the remote ref is a merge base between them, in order to
make sure that we are fast-forwarding.

Instead, call in_merge_bases(remote, HEAD) which does the same.

a4ddbc33d7 http-push: enable "proactive auth"
Before commit 986bbc08, git was proactive about asking for
http passwords. It assumed that if you had a username in
your URL, you would also want a password, and asked for it
before making any http requests.

However, this could interfere with the use of .netrc (see
986bbc08 for details). And it was also unnecessary, since
the http fetching code had learned to recognize an HTTP 401
and prompt the user then. Furthermore, the proactive prompt
could interfere with the usage of .netrc (see 986bbc08 for
details).

Unfortunately, the http push-over-DAV code never learned to
recognize HTTP 401, and so was broken by this change. This
patch does a quick fix of re-enabling the "proactive auth"
strategy only for http-push, leaving the dumb http fetch and
smart-http as-is.

5e9637c629 i18n: add infrastructure for translating Git with gettext
Change the skeleton implementation of i18n in Git to one that can show
localized strings to users for our C, Shell and Perl programs using
either GNU libintl or the Solaris gettext implementation.

This new internationalization support is enabled by default. If
gettext isn't available, or if Git is compiled with
NO_GETTEXT=YesPlease, Git falls back on its current behavior of
showing interface messages in English. When using the autoconf script
we'll auto-detect if the gettext libraries are installed and act
appropriately.

This change is somewhat large because as well as adding a C, Shell and
Perl i18n interface we're adding a lot of tests for them, and for
those tests to work we need a skeleton PO file to actually test
translations. A minimal Icelandic translation is included for this
purpose. Icelandic includes multi-byte characters which makes it easy
to test various edge cases, and it's a language I happen to
understand.

The rest of the commit message goes into detail about various
sub-parts of this commit.

= Installation

Gettext .mo files will be installed and looked for in the standard
$(prefix)/share/locale path. GIT_TEXTDOMAINDIR can also be set to
override that, but that's only intended to be used to test Git itself.

= Perl

Perl code that's to be localized should use the new Git::I18n
module. It imports a __ function into the caller's package by default.

Instead of using the high level Locale::TextDomain interface I've
opted to use the low-level (equivalent to the C interface)
Locale::Messages module, which Locale::TextDomain itself uses.

Locale::TextDomain does a lot of redundant work we don't need, and
some of it would potentially introduce bugs. It tries to set the
$TEXTDOMAIN based on package of the caller, and has its own
hardcoded paths where it'll search for messages.

I found it easier just to completely avoid it rather than try to
circumvent its behavior. In any case, this is an issue wholly
internal Git::I18N. Its guts can be changed later if that's deemed
necessary.

See <AANLkTilYD_NyIZMyj9dHtVk-ylVBfvyxpCC7982LWnVd@mail.gmail.com> for
a further elaboration on this topic.

= Shell

Shell code that's to be localized should use the git-sh-i18n
library. It's basically just a wrapper for the system's gettext.sh.

If gettext.sh isn't available we'll fall back on gettext(1) if it's
available. The latter is available without the former on Solaris,
which has its own non-GNU gettext implementation. We also need to
emulate eval_gettext() there.

If neither are present we'll use a dumb printf(1) fall-through
wrapper.

= About libcharset.h and langinfo.h

We use libcharset to query the character set of the current locale if
it's available. I.e. we'll use it instead of nl_langinfo if
HAVE_LIBCHARSET_H is set.

The GNU gettext manual recommends using langinfo.h's
nl_langinfo(CODESET) to acquire the current character set, but on
systems that have libcharset.h's locale_charset() using the latter is
either saner, or the only option on those systems.

GNU and Solaris have a nl_langinfo(CODESET), FreeBSD can use either,
but MinGW and some others need to use libcharset.h's locale_charset()
instead.

=Credits

This patch is based on work by Jeff Epler <jepler@unpythonic.net> who
did the initial Makefile / C work, and a lot of comments from the Git
mailing list, including Jonathan Nieder, Jakub Narebski, Johannes
Sixt, Erik Faye-Lund, Peter Krefting, Junio C Hamano, Thomas Rast and
others.
