33baa6983d git-compat-util.h: remove redundant code
Since commit 3a0a3a89 ("git-compat-util.h: don't define _XOPEN_SOURCE
on cygwin", 23-11-2014) removed the definition of _XOPEN_SOURCE on
cygwin, the code within a pre-processor conditional further down the
file became redundant. Remove the redundant code.

This effectively reverts commit 41b20017 ("Fix an "implicit function
definition" warning", 03-03-2007).

f400e51c13 test-lib.sh: set prerequisite SANITY by testing what we really need
What we wanted out of the SANITY precondition is that the filesystem
behaves sensibly with permission bits settings.

 - You should not be able to remove a file in a read-only directory,

 - You should not be able to tell if a file in a directory exists if
   the directory lacks read or execute permission bits.

We used to cheat by approximating that condition with "is the /
writable?" test and/or "are we running as root?" test.  Neither test
is sufficient or appropriate in environments like Cygwin.

5e915f3085 fast-import: avoid running end_packfile recursively
When an import has finished, we run end_packfile() to
finalize the data and move the packfile into place. If this
process fails, we call die() and end up in our die_nicely()
handler.  Which unfortunately includes running end_packfile
to save any progress we made. We enter the function again,
and start operating on the pack_data struct while it is in
an inconsistent state, leading to a segfault.

One way to trigger this is to simply start two identical
fast-imports at the same time. They will both create the
same packfiles, which will then try to create identically
named ".keep" files. One will win the race, and the other
will die(), and end up with the segfault.

Since 3c078b9, we already reset the pack_data pointer to
NULL at the end of end_packfile. That covers the case of us
calling die() right after end_packfile, before we have
reinitialized the pack_data pointer. This new problem is
quite similar, except that we are worried about calling
die() _during_ end_packfile, not right after. Ideally we
would simply set pack_data to NULL as soon as we enter the
function, and operate on a copy of the pointer.

Unfortunately, it is not so easy. pack_data is a global, and
end_packfile calls into other functions which operate on the
global directly. We would have to teach each of these to
take an argument, and there is no guarantee that we would
catch all of the spots.

Instead, we can simply use a static flag to avoid
recursively entering the function. This is a little less
elegant, but it's short and fool-proof.

Since ea02ffa3 (mailmap: simplify map_user() interface, 2013-01-05),
find_alignment() has been invoking commit_info_destroy() on an
uninitialized auto 'struct commit_info' (when METAINFO_SHOWN is not
set). commit_info_destroy() calls strbuf_release() for each
'commit_info' strbuf member, which randomly invokes free() on
whatever random stack value happens to reside in strbuf.buf, thus
leading to periodic crashes.

b0a4264277 sha1_file: fix iterating loose alternate objects
The string in 'base' contains a path suffix to a specific object;
when its value is used, the suffix must either be filled (as in
stat_sha1_file, open_sha1_file, check_and_freshen_nonlocal) or
cleared (as in prepare_packed_git) to avoid junk at the end.

660c889e (sha1_file: add for_each iterators for loose and packed
objects, 2014-10-15) introduced loose_from_alt_odb(), but this did
neither and treated 'base' as a complete path to the "base" object
directory, instead of a pointer to the "base" of the full path
string.

The trailing path after 'base' is still initialized to NUL, hiding
the bug in some common cases.  Additionally the descendent
for_each_file_in_obj_subdir() function swallows ENOENT, so an error
only shows if the alternate's path was last filled with a valid
object (where statting /path/to/existing/00/0bjectfile/00 fails).

88c03eb577 git-compat-util: do not step on MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MIN_REQUIRED
MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MIN_REQUIRED may be defined by the builder to a
specific version in order to produce compatible binaries for a
particular system.  Blindly defining it to MAC_OS_X_VERSION_10_6
is bad.

Additionally MAC_OS_X_VERSION_10_6 will not be defined on older
systems and should AvailabilityMacros.h be included on such as
system an error will result.  However, using the explicit value
of 1060 (which is what MAC_OS_X_VERSION_10_6 is defined to) does
not solve the problem.

The changes that introduced stepping on MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MIN were
made in b195aa00 (git-compat-util: suppress unavoidable
Apple-specific deprecation warnings) to avoid deprecation
warnings.

Instead of blindly setting MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MIN to 1060 change
the definition of DEPRECATED_ATTRIBUTE to empty to avoid the
warnings.  This preserves any MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MIN_REQUIRED
setting while avoiding the warnings as intended by b195aa00.

1d0655c15e config_buf_ungetc: warn when pushing back a random character
Our config code simulates a stdio stream around a buffer,
but our fake ungetc() does not behave quite like the real
one. In particular, we only rewind the position by one
character, but do _not_ actually put the character from the
caller into position.

It turns out that this does not matter, because we only ever
push back the character we just read. In other words, such
an assignment would be a noop. But because the function is
called ungetc, and because it takes a character parameter,
it is a mistake waiting to happen.

Actually assigning the character into the buffer would be
ideal, but our pointer is actually a "const" copy of the
buffer. We do not know who the real owner of the buffer is
in this code, and would not want to munge their contents.

Instead, we can simply add an assertion that matches what
the current caller does, and will let us know if new callers
are added that violate the contract.

d306f3d351 decimal_width: avoid integer overflow
The decimal_width function originally appeared in blame.c as
"lineno_width", and was designed for calculating the
print-width of small-ish integer values (line numbers in
text files). In ec7ff5b, it was made into a reusable
function, and in dc801e7, we started using it to align
diffstats.

Binary files in a diffstat show byte counts rather than line
numbers, meaning they can be quite large (e.g., consider
adding or removing a 2GB file). decimal_width is not up to
the challenge for two reasons:

  1. It takes the value as an "int", whereas large files may
     easily surpass this. The value may be truncated, in
     which case we will produce an incorrect value.

  2. It counts "up" by repeatedly multiplying another
     integer by 10 until it surpasses the value.  This can
     cause an infinite loop when the value is close to the
     largest representable integer.

     For example, consider using a 32-bit signed integer,
     and a value of 2,140,000,000 (just shy of 2^31-1).
     We will count up and eventually see that 1,000,000,000
     is smaller than our value. The next step would be to
     multiply by 10 and see that 10,000,000,000 is too
     large, ending the loop. But we can't represent that
     value, and we have signed overflow.

     This is technically undefined behavior, but a common
     behavior is to lose the high bits, in which case our
     iterator will certainly be less than the number. So
     we'll keep multiplying, overflow again, and so on.

This patch changes the argument to a uintmax_t (the same
type we use to store the diffstat information for binary
filese), and counts "down" by repeatedly dividing our value
by 10.

5e0be134d3 config: do not ungetc EOF
When we are parsing a config value, if we see a carriage
return, we fgetc the next character to see if it is a
line feed (in which case we silently drop the CR). If it
isn't, we then ungetc the character, and take the literal
CR.

But we never check whether we in fact got a character at
all. If the config file ends in CR, we will get EOF here,
and try to ungetc EOF. This works OK for a real stdio
stream. The ungetc returns an error, and the next fgetc will
then return EOF again.

However, our custom buffer-based stream is not so fortunate.
It happily rewinds the position of the stream by one
character, ignoring the fact that we fed it EOF. The next
fgetc call returns the final CR again, over and over, and we
end up in an infinite loop.

697f652818 Documentation/git-remote.txt: stress that set-url is not for triangular
It seems to be a common mistake to try using a single remote
(e.g. 'origin') to fetch from one place (i.e. upstream) while
pushing to another (i.e. your publishing point).

That will never work satisfactorily, and it is easy to understand
why if you think about what refs/remotes/origin/* would mean in such
a world.  It fundamentally cannot reflect the reality.  If it
follows the state of your upstream, it cannot match what you have
published, and vice versa.

It may be that misinformation is spread by some people.  Let's
counter them by adding a few words to our documentation.

 - The description was referring to <oldurl> and <newurl>, but never
   mentioned <name> argument you give from the command line.  By
   mentioning "remote <name>", stress the fact that it is configuring
   a single remote.

 - Add a reminder that explicitly states that this is about a single
   remote, which the triangular workflow is not about.

gpg, and this makes older versions work.

 (9) status, followed by similarlity index number only for C and R.
 (10) a tab or a NUL when '-z' option is used.
 ...

because C and R _were_ the only ones that came with a number back
then.  This was corrected by ddafa7e9 (diff-helper: Fix R/C score
parsing under -z flag., 2005-05-29) and we started saying "score"
instead of "similarlity index" (because we can have other kind of
score there), and stopped saying "only for C and R" (because Git is
an ever evolving system).  Later f345b0a0 (Add -B flag to diff-*
brothers., 2005-05-30) introduced a new concept, "dissimilarity"
score; it did not have to fix any documentation.

The current text that says only C and R can have scores came

something that is more than that.  [It exists for historical
reasons, back from the time when options had to come before
arguments.]

Say so. [But not that.]

94ee8e2c98 do not check truth value of flex arrays
There is no point in checking "!ref->name" when ref is a
"struct ref". The name field is a flex-array, and there
always has a non-zero address. This is almost certainly not
hurting anything, but it does cause clang-3.6 to complain.

66ec904b4e read_and_strip_branch: fix typo'd address-of operator
When we are chomping newlines from the end of a strbuf, we
must check "sb.len != 0" before accessing "sb.buf[sb.len - 1]".
However, this code mistakenly checks "&sb.len", which is
always true (it is a part of an auto struct, so the address
is always non-zero). This could lead to us accessing memory
outside the strbuf when we read an empty file.

394e1505b8 config.txt: clarify that add.ignore-errors is deprecated
The old text gave an impression that even in a new repository using
old form might be safer.  Only Git from pre 1.7.0 days choke on the
correctly named variable, which is ancient by today's standard.

We have no intention to remove the support for deprecated ones, but
let's make sure that we do not give room for confused questions such
as "why does core.sparse-checkout not work, when add.ignore-errors
does?"

8b9c2dd4de dumb-http: do not pass NULL path to parse_pack_index
Once upon a time, dumb http always fetched .idx files
directly into their final location, and then checked their
validity with parse_pack_index. This was refactored in
commit 750ef42 (http-fetch: Use temporary files for
pack-*.idx until verified, 2010-04-19), which uses the
following logic:

  1. If we have the idx already in place, see if it's
     valid (using parse_pack_index). If so, use it.

  2. Otherwise, fetch the .idx to a tempfile, check
     that, and if so move it into place.

  3. Either way, fetch the pack itself if necessary.

However, it got step 1 wrong. We pass a NULL path parameter
to parse_pack_index, so an existing .idx file always looks
broken. Worse, we do not treat this broken .idx as an
opportunity to re-fetch, but instead return an error,
ignoring the pack entirely. This can lead to a dumb-http
fetch failing to retrieve the necessary objects.

This doesn't come up much in practice, because it must be a
packfile that we found out about (and whose .idx we stored)
during an earlier dumb-http fetch, but whose packfile we
_didn't_ fetch. I.e., we did a partial clone of a
repository, didn't need some packfiles, and now a followup
fetch needs them.

1044b1f6a1 commit: reword --author error message
If an --author argument is specified but does not contain a '>' then git tries
to find the argument within the existing authors; and gives the error
message "No existing author found with '%s'" if there is no match.

This is confusing for users who try to specify a valid complete author
name.

Rename the error message to make it clearer that the failure has two
reasons in this case.

(This codepath is touched only when we know already that the argument
cannot be a completely wellformed author ident.)
