Match what is done to pfd[i].revents when compute_revents() returns
0 to the upstream gnulib's commit d42461c3 ("poll: fixes for large
fds", 2015-02-20). The revents field is set to 0, without
incrementing the value rc to be returned from the function. The
original code left the field to whatever random value the field was
initialized to.
This fixes occasional hangs in git-upload-pack on HPE NonStop.

If a candidate HEAD isn't a symref, we check that it
contains a viable sha1. But in a post-sha1 world, we should
be checking whether it has any plausible object-id.
We can do that by switching to get_oid_hex().
Note that both before and after this patch, we only check
for a plausible object id at the start of the file, and then
call that good enough. We ignore any content _after_ the
hex, so a string like:
0123456789012345678901234567890123456789 foo
is accepted. Though we do put extra bytes like this into
some pseudorefs (e.g., FETCH_HEAD), we don't typically do so
with HEAD. We could tighten this up by using parse_oid_hex(),
like:
if (!parse_oid_hex(buffer, &oid, &end) &&
*end++ == '\n' && *end == '\0')
return 0;
But we're probably better to remain on the loose side. We're
just checking here for a plausible-looking repository
directory, so heuristics are acceptable (if we really want
to be meticulous, we should use the actual ref code to parse
HEAD).

Since the previous commit guarantees that our symref buffer
is NUL-terminated, we can just use skip_prefix() and friends
to parse it. This is shorter and saves us having to deal
with magic numbers and keeping the "len" counter up to date.
While we're at it, let's name the rather obscure "buf" to
"refname", since that is the thing we are parsing with it.

When we are checking to see if we have a git repo, we peek
into the HEAD file and see if it's a plausible symlink,
symref, or detached HEAD.
For the latter two, we read the contents with read_in_full(),
which means they aren't NUL-terminated. The symref check is
careful to respect the length we got, but the sha1 check
will happily parse up to 40 bytes, even if we read fewer.
E.g.,:
echo 1234 >.git/HEAD
git rev-parse
will parse 36 uninitialized bytes from our stack buffer.
This isn't a big deal in practice. Our buffer is 256 bytes,
so we know we'll never read outside of it. The worst case is
that the uninitialized bytes look like valid hex, and we
claim a bogus HEAD file is valid. The chances of this
happening randomly are quite slim, but let's be careful.
One option would be to check that "len == 41" before feeding
the buffer to get_sha1_hex(). But we'd like to eventually
prepare for a world with variable-length hashes. Let's
NUL-terminate as soon as we've read the buffer (we already
even leave a spare byte to do so!). That fixes this problem
without depending on the size of an object id.

The git-read-tree manpage has a table that is meant to
be shown with its spacing exactly as it is in the source. We
mark it as a "literal paragraph" by indenting each line by
at least one space. This renders OK with asciidoc for both
the HTML and manpage versions.
But there are two problems when we render it with
asciidoctor.
The first is that some lines mix tabs and spaces. Even if
asciidoctor is correctly configured for 8-space tabs, it
seems to handle this case differently, soaking up some of
the initial literal-paragraph spaces and mis-aligning the
table text.
The second problem is that the table uses blank lines to
group rows. But as blank lines separate paragraphs in
asciidoc, this actually means that each chunk of the table
is rendered in its own pre-formatted <div> block. This
happens even with vanilla asciidoc, but there's no visible
result because the literal paragraphs aren't styled in any
special way. But with asciidoctor (or at least the styles
used on git-scm.com), literal paragraphs are styled with a
different background. This breaks the table into a visually
distracting sequence of chunks.
We can fix both by adding a literal-paragraph block
delimiter. That turns the whole table into a single block
(for both implementations) and causes asciidoctor to render
the indentation as it is in the source.

Commit dc944b65f1 (get_sha1_with_context: dynamically
allocate oc->path, 2017-05-19) changed the rules that
callers must follow for seeing if we parsed a path in the
object name. The rules switched from "check if the oc.path
buffer is empty" to "check if the oc.path pointer is NULL".
But that commit forgot to update some sites in
cat_one_file(), meaning we might dereference a NULL pointer.
You can see this by making a path-aware request like
--textconv without specifying --path, and giving an object
name that doesn't have a path in it. Like:
git cat-file --textconv HEAD
which will reliably segfault.

If you pass a newly initialized or newly cleared `string_list` to
`for_each_string_list_item()`, then the latter does
for (
item = (list)->items; /* NULL */
item < (list)->items + (list)->nr; /* NULL + 0 */
++item)
Even though this probably works almost everywhere, it is undefined
behavior, and it could plausibly cause highly-optimizing compilers to
misbehave. C99 section 6.5.6 paragraph 8 explains:
If both the pointer operand and the result point to elements
of the same array object, or one past the last element of the
array object, the evaluation shall not produce an overflow;
otherwise, the behavior is undefined.
and (6.3.2.3.3) a null pointer does not point to anything.
Guard the loop with a NULL check to make the intent crystal clear to
even the most pedantic compiler. A suitably clever compiler could let
the NULL check only run in the first iteration, but regardless, this
overhead is likely to be dwarfed by the work to be done on each item.
This problem was noticed by Coverity.

While git doesn't track empty directories, git archive can be tricked
into putting some into archives. One way is to construct an empty tree
object, as t5004 does. While that is supported by the object database,
it can't be represented in the index and thus it's unlikely to occur in
the wild.
Another way is using the literal name of a directory in an exclude
pathspec -- its contents are are excluded, but the directory stub is
included. That's inconsistent: exclude pathspecs containing wildcards
don't leave empty directories in the archive.
Yet another way is have a few levels of nested subdirectories (e.g.
d1/d2/d3/file1) and ignoring the entries at the leaves (e.g. file1).
The directories with the ignored content are ignored as well (e.g. d3),
but their empty parents are included (e.g. d2).
As empty directories are not supported by git, they should also not be
written into archives. If an empty directory is really needed then it
can be tracked and archived by placing an empty .gitignore file in it.
There already is a mechanism in place for suppressing empty directories.
When read_tree_recursive() encounters a directory excluded by a pathspec
then it enters it anyway because it might contain included entries. It
calls the callback function before it is able to decide if the directory
is actually needed. For that reason git archive adds directories to a
queue and writes entries for them only when it encounters the first
child item -- but currently only if pathspecs with wildcards are used.
Queue *all* directories, no matter if there even are pathspecs present.
This prevents git archive from writing entries for empty directories in
all cases.

Callers are only allowed to pass certain flags into
ref_transaction_update, other flags are internal to it. To prevent
mistakes from the callers, strip the internal only flags out before
continuing.
This was noticed because of a compiler warning gcc 7.1.1 issued about
passing a NULL parameter as second parameter to memcpy (through
hashcpy):
In file included from refs.c:5:0:
refs.c: In function ‘ref_transaction_verify’:
cache.h:948:2: error: argument 2 null where non-null expected [-Werror=nonnull]

extern void *memcpy (void *__restrict __dest, const void *__restrict __src,
^~~~~~
The call to hascpy in ref_transaction_add_update is protected by the
passed in flags, but as we only add flags there, gcc notices
REF_HAVE_NEW or REF_HAVE_OLD flags could be passed in from the outside,
which would potentially result in passing in NULL as second parameter to
memcpy.
Fix both the compiler warning, and make the interface safer for its
users by stripping the internal flags out.

The git-cvsserver script is old and largely unmaintained
these days. But git-shell allows untrusted users to run it
out of the box, significantly increasing its attack surface.
Let's drop it from git-shell's list of internal handlers so
that it cannot be run by default. This is not backwards
compatible. But given the age and development activity on
CVS-related parts of Git, this is likely to impact very few
users, while helping many more (i.e., anybody who runs
git-shell and had no intention of supporting CVS).
There's no configuration mechanism in git-shell for us to
add a boolean and flip it to "off". But there is a mechanism
for adding custom commands, and adding CVS support here is
fairly trivial. Let's document it to give guidance to
anybody who really is still running cvsserver.

The handshake_capabilities() function first advertises the set of
capabilities it supports, so that the other side can pick and choose
which ones to use and ask us to enable in its response. Then we
read the response that tells us what choice the other side made. If
we saw something that we never advertised, that indicates one of two
things. The other side, i.e. the "upgraded" filter, is not paying
attention of the capabilities advertisement, and asking something
its correct operation relies on, but we are not capable of giving
that unknown feature and operate without it, so after that point the
exchange of data is a garbage-in-garbage-out. Or the other side
wanted to ask for one of the capabilities we advertised, but the
code has typo and their wish to enable a capability that its correct
operation relies on is not understood on this end. The result is
the same garbage-in-garbage-out.
Instead of sweeping such a potential bug under the rug, die loudly
when we see a request for an unsupported capability in order to
force sloppily-written filter scripts to get corrected.
