9eb2308019 test_must_be_empty: simplify file existence check
Commit 11395a3b4b (test_must_be_empty: make sure the file exists, not
just empty, 2018-02-27) basically duplicated the 'test_path_is_file'
helper function in 'test_must_be_empty'.

Just call 'test_path_is_file' to avoid this code duplication.

571e472dc4 Merge branch 'sg/test-x'
Running test scripts under -x option of the shell is often not a
useful way to debug them, because the error messages from the
commands tests try to capture and inspect are contaminated by the
tracing output by the shell.  An earlier work done to make it more
pleasant to run tests under -x with recent versions of bash is
extended to cover posix shells that do not support BASH_XTRACEFD.

11395a3b4b test_must_be_empty: make sure the file exists, not just empty
The helper function test_must_be_empty is meant to make sure the
given file is empty, but its implementation is:

	if test -s "$1"
	then
		... not empty, we detected a failure ...
	fi

Surely, the file having non-zero size is a sign that the condition
"the file must be empty" is violated, but it misses the case where
the file does not even exist.  It is an accident waiting to happen
with a buggy test like this:

	git frotz 2>error-message &&
	test_must_be_empty errro-message

that won't get caught until you deliberately break 'git frotz' and
notice why the test does not fail.

a5bf824f3b t: prevent '-x' tracing from interfering with test helpers' stderr
Running a test script with '-x' turns on 'set -x' tracing, the output
of which is normally sent to stderr.  This causes a lot of
test failures, because many tests redirect and verify the stderr
of shell functions, most frequently that of 'test_must_fail'.
These issues were worked around somewhat in d88785e424 (test-lib: set
BASH_XTRACEFD automatically, 2016-05-11), so at least we could
reliably run tests with '-x' tracing under a Bash version supporting
BASH_XTRACEFD, i.e. v4.1 and later.

Futhermore, redirecting the stderr of test helper functions like
'test_must_fail' or 'test_expect_code' is the cause of a different
issue as well.  If these functions detect something unexpected, they
will write their error messages intended to the user to thier stderr.
However, if their stderr is redirected in order to save and verify the
stderr of the tested git command invoked in the function, then the
function's error messages will be redirected as well.  Consequently,
those messages won't reach the user, making the test's verbose output
less useful.

This patch makes it safe to redirect and verify the stderr of those
test helper functions which are meant to run the tested command given
as argument, even when running tests with '-x' and /bin/sh.  This is
achieved through a couple of file descriptor redirections:

  - Duplicate stderr of the tested command executed in the test helper
    function from the function's fd 7 (see next point), to ensure that
    the tested command's error messages go to a different fd than the
    '-x' trace of the commands executed in the function or the
    function's error messages.

  - Duplicate the test helper function's fd 7 from the function's
    original stderr, meaning that, after taking a detour through fd 7,
    the error messages of the tested command do end up on the
    function's original stderr.

  - Duplicate stderr of the test helper function from fd 4, i.e. the
    fd connected to the test script's original stderr and the fd used
    for BASH_XTRACEFD.  This ensures that the '-x' trace of the
    commands executed in the function

      - doesn't go to the function's original stderr, so it won't mess
	with callers who want to save and verify the tested command's
	stderr.

      - does go to the same fd independently from the shell running
        the test script, be it /bin/sh, an older Bash without
        BASH_XTRACEFD, or a more recent Bash already supporting
        BASH_XTRACEFD.

    Furthermore, this also makes sure that the function's error
    messages go to this fd 4, meaning that the user will be able to
    see them even if the function's stderr is redirected in the test.

  - Specify the latter two redirections above in the test helper
    function's definition, so they are performed every time the
    function is invoked, without the need to modify the callsites of
    the function.

Perform these redirections in those test helper functions which can be
expected to have their stderr redirected, i.e. in the functions
'test_must_fail', 'test_might_fail', 'test_expect_code', 'test_env',
'nongit', 'test_terminal' and 'perl'.  Note that 'test_might_fail',
'test_env', and 'nongit' are not involved in any test failures when
running tests with '-x' and /bin/sh.

The other test helper functions are left unchanged, because they
either don't run commands specified as their arguments, or redirecting
their stderr wouldn't make sense, or both.

With this change the number of failures when running the test suite
with '-x' tracing and /bin/sh goes down from 340 failed tests in 43
test scripts to 22 failed tests in 6 scripts (or 23 in 7, if the
system (OSX) uses an older Bash version without BASH_XTRACEFD to run
't9903-bash-prompt.sh').

03aa3783f2 t: send verbose test-helper output to fd 4
Test helper functions like test_must_fail may produce
messages to stderr when they see a problem. When the tests
are run with "--verbose", this ends up on the test script's
stderr, and the user can read it.

But there's a problem. Some tests record stderr as part of
the test, like:

  test_must_fail git foo 2>output &&
  test_i18ngrep expected.message output

In this case the error text goes into "output". This makes
the --verbose output less useful (it also means we might
accidentally match it in the second, though in practice we
tend to produce these messages only on error, so we'd abort
the test when the first command fails).

Let's instead send this user-facing output directly to
descriptor 4, which always points to the original stderr (or
/dev/null in non-verbose mode). And it's already forbidden
to redirect descriptor 4, since we use it for BASH_XTRACEFD,
as explained in 9be795fbce (t5615: avoid re-using descriptor
4, 2017-12-08).

63b1a175ee t: make 'test_i18ngrep' more informative on failure
When 'test_i18ngrep' can't find the expected pattern, it exits
completely silently; when its negated form does find the pattern that
shouldn't be there, it prints the matching line(s) but otherwise exits
without any error message.  This leaves the developer puzzled about
what could have gone wrong.

Make 'test_i18ngrep' more informative on failure by printing an error
message including the invoked 'grep' command and the contents of the
file it had to scan through.

Note that this "dump the scanned file" part is not quite perfect, as
it dumps only the file specified as the function's last positional
parameter, thus assuming that there is only a single file parameter.
I think that's a reasonable assumption to make, one that holds true in
the current code base.  And even if someone were to scan multiple
files at once in the future, the worst thing that could happen is that
the verbose error message won't include the contents of all those
files, only the last one.  Alas, we can't really do any better than
this, because checking whether the other positional parameters match a
filename can result in false positives: 't3400-rebase.sh' and
't3404-rebase-interactive.sh' contain one test each, where the
'test_i18ngrep's pattern verbatimly matches a file in the trash
directory.

fd29d7b9d7 t: validate 'test_i18ngrep's parameters
Some of the previous patches in this series fixed bogus
'test_i18ngrep' invocations:

  - Two invocations where the tested git command's standard output is
    directly piped into 'test_i18ngrep'.  While convenient, this is an
    antipattern, because the pipe hides the git command's exit code,
    and the test could continue even if the command exited with error.

  - Two invocations that had neither a filename parameter nor anything
    piped into their standard input, yet both managed to remain
    unnoticed for years.  A third similarly bogus invocation is
    currently lurking in 'pu' for a couple of weeks now.

Prevent similar mistakes in the future by validating 'test_i18ngrep's
parameters requiring that

  - The last parameter names an existing file to be read, effectively
    forbidding piping into 'test_i18ngrep'.

    Note that this change will also forbid cases where 'test_i18ngrep'
    would legitimately read its standard input, e.g. when its standard
    input is redirected from a file, or when a git command's standard
    output is first written to an intermediate file, which is then
    preprocessed by a non-git command before the results are piped
    into 'test_i18ngrep'.  See two of the previous patches for the
    only such cases we had in our test suite.  However, reliably
    preventing the piping antipattern is arguably more important than
    supporting these cases, which can be easily worked around by
    opening the file directly or using an intermediate file anyway.

  - There are at least two parameters, not including the optional '!'
    to negate the pattern.  This ought to catch corner cases when
    'test_i18ngrep' looks for the name of an existing file on its
    standard input; the above check would miss this case becase the
    filename as pattern would be the last parameter.

    Note that this is not quite perfect, as it doesn't account for any
    'grep --options' given as parameters.  However, doing so would be
    far too complicated, considering that patterns can start with
    dashes as well, and in the majority of the cases we don't use any
    such options anyway.

4414a15002 t/lib-git-daemon: add network-protocol helpers
All of our git-protocol tests rely on invoking the client
and having it make a request of a server. That gives a nice
real-world test of how the two behave together, but it
doesn't leave any room for testing how a server might react
to _other_ clients.

Let's add a few test helper functions which can be used to
manually conduct a git-protocol conversation with a remote
git-daemon:

  1. To connect to a remote git-daemon, we need something
     like "netcat". But not everybody will have netcat. And
     even if they do, the behavior with respect to
     half-duplex shutdowns is not portable (openbsd netcat
     has "-N", with others you must rely on "-q 1", which is
     racy).

     Here we provide a "fake_nc" that is capable of doing
     a client-side netcat, with sane half-duplex semantics.
     It relies on perl's IO::Socket::INET. That's been in
     the base distribution since 5.6.0, so it's probably
     available everywhere. But just to be on the safe side,
     we'll add a prereq.

  2. To help tests speak and read pktline, this patch adds
     packetize() and depacketize() functions.

I've put fake_nc() into lib-git-daemon.sh, since that's
really the only server where we'd need to use a network
socket.  Whereas the pktline helpers may be of more general
use, so I've added them to test-lib-functions.sh. Programs
like upload-pack speak pktline, but can talk directly over
stdio without a network socket.

097b681baa t: use test_decode_color rather than literal ANSI codes
When we put literal ANSI terminal codes into our test

colors may be indistinguishable from diff coloring, or in
the case of a reset, may not be visible at all).

Some scripts get around this by including human-readable
names and converting to literal codes with a git-config
hack. This makes the actual code diffs look OK, but test_cmp
output suffers from the same problem.

Let's use test_decode_color instead, which turns the codes

59210dd56c tests: make the 'test_pause' helper work in non-verbose mode
When the 'test_pause' helper function invokes the shell mid-test, it
explicitly redirects the shell's stdout and stderr to file descriptors
3 and 4, which are the stdout and stderr of the tests (i.e. where they
would be connected anyway without those redirections).  These file
descriptors are only attached to the terminal in verbose mode, hence
the restriction of 'test_pause' to work only with '-v'.

Redirect the shell's stdout and stderr to the test environment's
original stdout and stderr, allowing it to work properly even in
non-verbose mode, and the restriction can be lifted.

Redirect gdb's standard file descriptors from/to the test

9b67c9942e tests: factor portable signal check out of t0005
In POSIX shells, a program which exits due to a signal
generally has an exit code of 128 plus the signal number.
However, ksh uses 256 plus the signal number.  We've
accounted for that in t0005, but not in other tests.  Let's
pull out the logic so we can use it elsewhere.

It would be nice for debugging if this additionally printed
errors to stderr, like our other test_* helpers. But we're
going to need to use it in other places besides the innards
of a test_expect block. So let's leave it as generic as
possible.

Note that we also leave the magic "3" for Windows out of the
generic helper. This is an artifact of the way we use
raise() to kill ourselves in test-sigchain.c, and will not
necessarily apply to all programs. So it's better to keep it
out of the helper, to reduce the chance of confusing it with
a real call to exit(3).

48860819e8 t9300: factor out portable "head -c" replacement
It is sometimes useful to be able to read exactly N bytes from a
pipe. Doing this portably turns out to be surprisingly difficult
in shell scripts.

We want a solution that:

  - is portable

  - never reads more than N bytes due to buffering (which
    would mean those bytes are not available to the next
    program to read from the same pipe)

  - handles partial reads by looping until N bytes are read
    (or we see EOF)

  - is resilient to stray signals giving us EINTR while
    trying to read (even though we don't send them, things
    like SIGWINCH could cause apparently-random failures)

Some possible solutions are:

  - "head -c" is not portable, and implementations may
    buffer (though GNU head does not)

  - "read -N" is a bash-ism, and thus not portable

  - "dd bs=$n count=1" does not handle partial reads. GNU dd
    has iflags=fullblock, but that is not portable

  - "dd bs=1 count=$n" fixes the partial read problem (all
    reads are 1-byte, so there can be no partial response).
    It does make a lot of write() calls, but for our tests
    that's unlikely to matter.  It's fairly portable. We
    already use it in our tests, and it's unlikely that
    implementations would screw up any of our criteria. The
    most unknown one would be signal handling.

  - perl can do a sysread() loop pretty easily. On my Linux
    system, at least, it seems to restart the read() call
    automatically. If that turns out not to be portable,
    though, it would be easy for us to handle it.

That makes the perl solution the least bad (because we
conveniently omitted "length of code" as a criterion).
It's also what t9300 is currently using, so we can just pull
the implementation from there.

d2554c7207 test-lib: add in-shell "env" replacement
The one-shot environment variable syntax:

  FOO=BAR some-program

is unportable when some-program is actually a shell
function, like test_must_fail (on some shells FOO remains
set after the function returns, and on others it does not).

We sometimes get around this by using env, like:

  test_must_fail env FOO=BAR some-program

But that only works because test_must_fail's arguments are
themselves a command which can be run. You can't run:

  env FOO=BAR test_must_fail some-program

because env does not know about our shell functions. So
there is no equivalent for test_commit, for example, and one
must resort to:

  (
    FOO=BAR
    export FOO
    test_commit
  )

which is a bit verbose.  Let's add a version of "env" that
works _inside_ the shell, by creating a subshell, exporting
variables from its argument list, and running the command.

Its use is demonstrated on a currently-unportable case in
t4014.

55672a39b4 test-lib-functions.sh: remove misleading comment on test_seq
We never used the "letters" form since we came up with "test_seq" to
replace use of non-portable "seq" in our test script, which we
introduced it at d17cf5f3 (tests: Introduce test_seq, 2012-08-04).

We use this helper to either iterate for N times (i.e. the values on
the lines do not even matter), or just to get N distinct strings
(i.e. the values on the lines themselves do not really matter, but
we care that they are different from each other and reproducible).

Stop promising that we may allow using "letters"; this would open an
easier reimplementation that does not rely on $PERL, if somebody
later wants to.

8bf4becf0c add "ok=sigpipe" to test_must_fail and use it to fix flaky tests
t5516 "75 - deny fetch unreachable SHA1, allowtipsha1inwant=true" is
flaky in the following case:
1. remote upload-pack finds out "not our ref"
2. remote sends a response and closes the pipe
3. fetch-pack still tries to write commands to the remote upload-pack
4. write call in wrapper.c dies with SIGPIPE

The test is flaky because the sending fetch-pack may or may
not have finished writing its output by step (3). If it did,
then we see a closed pipe on the next read() call. If it
didn't, then we get the SIGPIPE from step (4) above. Both
are fine, but the latter fools test_must_fail.

t5504 "9 - push with transfer.fsckobjects" is flaky, too, and returns
SIGPIPE once in a while. I had to remove the final "To dst..." output
check because there is no output if the process dies with SIGPIPE.

Accept such a death-with-sigpipe also as OK when we are expecting a
failure.

817d03e105 test_ln_s_add: refresh stat info of fake symbolic links
We have a helper function test_ln_s_add that inserts a symbolic link
into the index even if the file system does not support symbolic links.
There is a small flaw in the emulation path: the added entry does not
pick up stat information of the fake symbolic link from the file system,
as a consequence, the index is not exactly the same as for the "regular"
path (where symbolic links are available). To fix this, just call
git update-index again.

This flaw was revealed by the earlier change that tightened
compare_diff_raw(), because a test case in t4008 depends on the
correctly updated index.
