4d0375ca24 mingw: do set errno correctly when trying to restrict handle inheritance
In 9a780a384d (mingw: spawned processes need to inherit only standard
handles, 2019-11-22), we taught the Windows-specific part to restrict
which file handles are passed on to the spawned processes.

Since this logic seemed to be a bit fragile across Windows versions (we
_still_ support Windows Vista in Git for Windows, for example), a
fall-back was added to try spawning the process again, this time without
restricting which file handles are to be inherited by the spawned
process.

In the common case (i.e. when the process could not be spawned for
reasons _other_ than the file handle inheritance), the fall-back attempt
would still fail, of course.

Crucially, one thing we missed in that code path was to set `errno`
appropriately.

This should have been caught by t0061.2 which expected `errno` to be
`ENOENT` after trying to start a process for a non-existing executable,
but `errno` was set to `ENOENT` prior to the `CreateProcessW()` call:
while looking for the config settings for trace2, Git tries to access
`xdg_config` and `user_config` via `access_or_die()`, and as neither of
those config files exists when running the test case (because in Git's
test suite, `HOME` points to the test directory), the `errno` has the
expected value, but for the wrong reasons.

Let's fix that by making sure that `errno` is set correctly. It even
appears that `errno` was set in the _wrong_ case previously:
`CreateProcessW()` returns non-zero upon success, but `errno` was set
only in the non-zero case.

It would be nice if we could somehow fix t0061 to make sure that this
does not regress again. One approach that seemed like it should work,
but did not, was to set `errno` to 0 in the test helper that is used by
t0061.2.

However, when `mingw_spawnvpe()` wants to see whether the file in
question is a script, it calls `parse_interpreter()`, which in turn
tries to `open()` the file. Obviously, this call fails, and sets `errno`
to `ENOENT`, deep inside the call chain started from that test helper.

Instead, we force re-set `errno` at the beginning of the function
`mingw_spawnve_fd()`, which _should_ be safe given that callers of that
function will want to look at `errno` if -1 was returned. And if that
`errno` is 0 ("No error"), regression tests like t0061.2 will kick in.

867fc7f310 grep: don't return an expression from pcre2_free()
Previously, the void pcre2_free() function in grep.c returned free().
While free() itself is void, afaict it's still an expression as per
section A.2.3, subsection 6.8.6 (jump-statement) in both C99 [1] and C11
[2]:

> return expression

Section 6.8.6.4 in C99 [1] and C11 [2] says that:

> A return statement with an expression shall not appear in a function
> whose return type is void.

The consequence of the old behavior was that developer builds with
pedantic errors enabled broke Git if PCRE2 was enabled and a
smart-enough compiler to detect these errors was used.  This commit
fixes pedantic builds of Git that enables --with-libpcre.

c64368e3a2 t9001: avoid including non-trailing NUL bytes in variables
In this test, we have a command substitution whose output starts with a
NUL byte.  bash and dash strip out any NUL bytes from the output; zsh
does not.  As a consequence, zsh fails this test, since the command line
argument we use the variable in is truncated by the NUL byte.

POSIX says of a command substitution that if "the output contains any
null bytes, the behavior is unspecified," so all of the shells are in
compliance with POSIX.  To make our code more portable, let's avoid
prefacing our variables with NUL bytes and instead leave only the
trailing one behind.

72b006f4bf gpg-interface: prefer check_signature() for GPG verification
This commit refactors the use of verify_signed_buffer() outside of
gpg-interface.c to use check_signature() instead.  It also turns
verify_signed_buffer() into a file-local function since it's now only
invoked internally by check_signature().

There were previously two globally scoped functions used in different
parts of Git to perform GPG signature verification:
verify_signed_buffer() and check_signature().  Now only
check_signature() is used.

The verify_signed_buffer() function doesn't guard against duplicate
signatures as described by Michał Górny [1].  Instead it only ensures a
non-erroneous exit code from GPG and the presence of at least one
GOODSIG status field.  This stands in contrast with check_signature()
that returns an error if more than one signature is encountered.

The lower degree of verification makes the use of verify_signed_buffer()
problematic if callers don't parse and validate the various parts of the
GPG status message themselves.  And processing these messages seems like
a task that should be reserved to gpg-interface.c with the function
check_signature().

Furthermore, the use of verify_signed_buffer() makes it difficult to
introduce new functionality that relies on the content of the GPG status
lines.

Now all operations that does signature verification share a single entry
point to gpg-interface.c.  This makes it easier to propagate changed or
additional functionality in GPG signature verification to all parts of
Git, without having odd edge-cases that don't perform the same degree of
verification.

7187c7bbb8 t4210: skip i18n tests that don't work on FreeBSD
A number of t4210-log-i18n tests added in 4e2443b181 set LC_ALL to a UTF-8
locale (is_IS.UTF-8) but then pass an invalid UTF-8 string to --grep.
FreeBSD's regcomp() fails in this case with REG_ILLSEQ, "illegal byte
sequence," which git then passes to die():

fatal: command line: '�': illegal byte sequence

When these tests were added the commit message stated:

| It's possible that this
| test breaks the "basic" and "extended" backends on some systems that
| are more anal than glibc about the encoding of locale issues with
| POSIX functions that I can remember

which seems to be the case here.

Extend test-lib.sh to add a REGEX_ILLSEQ prereq, set it on FreeBSD, and
add !REGEX_ILLSEQ to the two affected tests.

5cf7a17dfb send-pack: use OBJECT_INFO_QUICK to check negative objects
When pushing, we feed pack-objects a list of both positive and negative
objects. The positive objects are what we want to send, and the negative
objects are what the other side told us they have, which we can use to
limit the size of the push.

Before passing along a negative object, send_pack() will make sure we
actually have it (since we only know about it because the remote
mentioned it, not because it's one of our refs). So it's expected that
some of these objects will be missing on the local side. But looking for
a missing object is more expensive than one that we have: it triggers
reprepare_packed_git() to handle a racy repack, plus it has to explore
every alternate's loose object tree (which can be slow if you have a lot
of them, or have a high-latency filesystem).

This isn't usually a big problem, since repositories you're pushing to
don't generally have a large number of refs that are unrelated to what
the client has. But there's no reason such a setup is wrong, and it
currently performs poorly.

We can fix this by using OBJECT_INFO_QUICK, which tells the lookup
code that we expect objects to be missing. Notably, it will not re-scan
the packs, and it will use the loose cache from 61c7711cfe (sha1-file:
use loose object cache for quick existence check, 2018-11-12).

The downside is that in the rare case that we race with a local repack,
we might fail to feed some objects to pack-objects, making the resulting
push larger. But we'd never produce an invalid or incorrect push, just a
less optimal one. That seems like a reasonable tradeoff, and we already
do similar things on the fetch side (e.g., when marking COMPLETE
commits).

176441bfb5 ci: build Git with GCC 9 in the 'osx-gcc' build job
Our 'osx-gcc' build job on Travis CI relied on GCC 8 being installed
(but not linked) in the image we use [1].  Alas, since the last update
of this image a few days ago this is not the case anymore, and now it
contains GCC 9 (installed and linked) instead of GCC 8.  The results
are failed 'osx-gcc' jobs, because they can't find the 'gcc-8' command
[2].

Let's move on to use GCC 9, with hopefully better error reporting and
improved -Wfoo flags and what not.  On Travis CI this has the benefit
that we can spare a few seconds while installing dependencies, because
it already comes pre-installed, at least for now.  The Azure Pipelines
OSX image doesn't include GCC, so we have to install it ourselves
anyway, and then we might as well install the newer version.

In a vain attempt I tried to future-proof this a bit:

  - Install 'gcc@9' specifically, so we'll still get what we want even
    after GCC 10 comes out, and the "plain" 'gcc' package starts to
    refer to 'gcc@10'.

  - Run both 'brew install gcc@9' and 'brew link gcc@9'.  If 'gcc@9'
    is already installed and linked, then both commands are noop and
    exit with success.  But as we saw in the past, sometimes the image
    contains the expected GCC package installed but not linked, so
    maybe it will happen again in the future as well.  In that case
    'brew install' is still a noop, and instructs the user to run
    'brew link' instead, so that's what we'll do.  And if 'gcc@9' is
    not installed, then 'brew install' will install it, and the
    subsequent 'brew link' becomes a noop.

An additional benefit of this patch is that from now on we won't
unnecessarily install GCC and its dependencies in the 'osx-clang' jobs
on Azure Pipelines.

ecc0869080 commit-graph: use start_delayed_progress()
When writing a commit-graph, we show progress along several commit
walks. When we use start_delayed_progress(), the progress line will
only appear if that step takes a decent amount of time.

However, one place was missed: computing generation numbers. This is
normally a very fast operation as all commits have been parsed in a
previous step. But, this is showing up for all users no matter how few
commits are being added.

The tests that check for the progress output have already been updated
to use GIT_PROGRESS_DELAY=0 to force the expected output.

44a4693bfc progress: create GIT_PROGRESS_DELAY
The start_delayed_progress() method is a preferred way to show
optional progress to users as it ignores steps that take less
than two seconds. However, this makes testing unreliable as tests
expect to be very fast.

In addition, users may want to decrease or increase this time
interval depending on their preferences for terminal noise.

Create the GIT_PROGRESS_DELAY environment variable to control
the delay set during start_delayed_progress(). Set the value
in some tests to guarantee their output remains consistent.

528d9e6d01 t/perf: don't depend on Git.pm
The perf suite's aggregate.perl depends on Git.pm, which is a mild
annoyance if you've built git with NO_PERL. It turns out that the only
thing we use it for is a single call of the command_oneline() helper.
We can just replace this with backticks or similar.

Annoyingly, perl has no backtick equivalent that avoids a shell eval,
which means our $arg would require quoting. This probably doesn't matter
for our purposes, but it's better to be safe and model good style. So
we'll just provide a short helper around open(), which takes its
arguments as a list.

b8dcc45387 perf-lib: use a single filename for all measurement types
The perf tests write files recording the results of tests.  These
results are later aggregated by 'aggregate.perl'.  If the tests are run
multiple times, those results are overwritten by the new results.  This
works just fine as long as there are only perf tests measuring the
times, whose results are stored in "$base".times files.

However 22bec79d1a ("t/perf: add infrastructure for measuring sizes",
2018-08-17) introduced a new type of test for measuring the size of
something.  The results of this are written to "$base".size files.

"$base" is essentially made up of the basename of the script plus the
test number.  So if test numbers shift because a new test was
introduced earlier in the script we might end up with both a ".times"
and a ".size" file for the same test.  In the aggregation script the
".times" file is preferred over the ".size" file, so some size tests
might end with performance numbers from a previous run of the test.

This is mainly relevant when writing perf tests that check both
performance and sizes, and can get quite confusing during
developement.

We could fix this by doing a more thorough job of cleaning out old
".times" and ".size" files before running each test. However, an even
easier solution is to just use the same filename for both types of
measurement, meaning we'll always overwrite the previous result. We
don't even need to change the file format to distinguish the two;
aggregate.perl already decides which is which based on a regex of the
content (this may become ambiguous if we add new types in the future,
but we could easily add a header field to the file at that point).

Based on an initial patch from Thomas Gummerer, who discovered the
problem and did all of the analysis (which I stole for the commit
message above):
