In 07259e74ec (fsck: detect gitmodules URLs with embedded newlines,
2020-03-11), git fsck learned to check whether URLs in .gitmodules could
be understood by the credential machinery when they are handled by
git-remote-curl.
However, the check is overbroad: it checks all URLs instead of only
URLs that would be passed to git-remote-curl. In principle a git:// or
file:/// URL does not need to follow the same conventions as an http://
URL; in particular, git:// and file:// protocols are not succeptible to
issues in the credential API because they do not support attaching
credentials.
In the HTTP case, the URL in .gitmodules does not always match the URL
that would be passed to git-remote-curl and the credential machinery:
Git's URL syntax allows specifying a remote helper followed by a "::"
delimiter and a URL to be passed to it, so that
git ls-remote http::https://example.com/repo.git
invokes git-remote-http with https://example.com/repo.git as its URL
argument. With today's checks, that distinction does not make a
difference, but for a check we are about to introduce (for empty URL
schemes) it will matter.
.gitmodules files also support relative URLs. To ensure coverage for the
https based embedded-newline attack, urldecode and check them directly
for embedded newlines.

The credential helper protocol was designed to be very flexible: the
fields it takes as input are treated as a pattern, and any missing
fields are taken as wildcards. This allows unusual things like:
echo protocol=https | git credential reject
to delete all stored https credentials (assuming the helpers themselves
treat the input that way). But when helpers are invoked automatically by
Git, this flexibility works against us. If for whatever reason we don't
have a "host" field, then we'd match _any_ host. When you're filling a
credential to send to a remote server, this is almost certainly not what
you want.
Prevent this at the layer that writes to the credential helper. Add a
check to the credential API that the host and protocol are always passed
in, and add an assertion to the credential_write function that speaks
credential helper protocol to be doubly sure.
There are a few ways this can be triggered in practice:
- the "git credential" command passes along arbitrary credential
parameters it reads from stdin.
- until the previous patch, when the host field of a URL is empty, we
would leave it unset (rather than setting it to the empty string)
- a URL like "example.com/foo.git" is treated by curl as if "http://"
was present, but our parser sees it as a non-URL and leaves all
fields unset
- the recent fix for URLs with embedded newlines blanks the URL but
otherwise continues. Rather than having the desired effect of
looking up no credential at all, many helpers will return _any_
credential
Our earlier test for an embedded newline didn't catch this because it
only checked that the credential was cleared, but didn't configure an
actual helper. Configuring the "verbatim" helper in the test would show
that it is invoked (it's obviously a silly helper which doesn't look at
its input, but the point is that it shouldn't be run at all). Since
we're switching this case to die(), we don't need to bother with a
helper. We can see the new behavior just by checking that the operation
fails.
We'll add new tests covering partial input as well (these can be
triggered through various means with url-parsing, but it's simpler to
just check them directly, as we know we are covered even if the url
parser changes behavior in the future).

We may feed a URL like "cert:///path/to/cert.pem" into the credential
machinery to get the key for a client-side certificate. That
credential has no hostname field, which is about to be disallowed (to
avoid confusion with protocols where a helper _would_ expect a
hostname).
This means as of the next patch, credential helpers won't work for
unlocking certs. Let's fix that by doing two things:
- when we parse a url with an empty host, set the host field to the
empty string (asking only to match stored entries with an empty
host) rather than NULL (asking to match _any_ host).
- when we build a cert:// credential by hand, similarly assign an
empty string
It's the latter that is more likely to impact real users in practice,
since it's what's used for http connections. But we don't have good
infrastructure to test it.
The url-parsing version will help anybody using git-credential in a
script, and is easy to test.

Many of the tests in t0300 give partial inputs to git-credential,
omitting a protocol or hostname. We're checking only high-level things
like whether and how helpers are invoked at all, and we don't care about
specific hosts. However, in preparation for tightening up the rules
about when we're willing to run a helper, let's start using input that's
a bit more realistic: pretend as if http://example.com is being
examined.
This shouldn't change the point of any of the tests, but do note we have
to adjust the expected output to accommodate this (filling a credential
will repeat back the protocol/host fields to stdout, and the helper
debug messages and askpass prompt will change on stderr).

We test a toy credential helper that writes "quit=1" and confirms that
we stop running other helpers. However, that helper is unrealistic in
that it does not bother to read its stdin at all.
For now we don't send any input to it, because we feed git-credential a
blank credential. But that will change in the next patch, which will
cause this test to racily fail, as git-credential will get SIGPIPE
writing to the helper rather than exiting because it was asked to.
Let's make this one-off helper more like our other sample helpers, and
have it source the "dump" script. That will read stdin, fixing the
SIGPIPE problem. But it will also write what it sees to stderr. We can
make the test more robust by checking that output, which confirms that
we do run the quit helper, don't run any other helpers, and exit for the
reason we expected.

The "refs" pointer in a struct repository starts life as NULL, but then
is lazily initialized when it is accessed via get_main_ref_store().
However, it's easy for calling code to forget this and access it
directly, leading to code which works _some_ of the time, but fails if
it is called before anybody else accesses the refs.
This was the cause of the bug fixed by 5ff4b920eb (sha1-name: do not
assume that the ref store is initialized, 2020-04-09). In order to
prevent similar bugs, let's more clearly mark the "refs" field as

In addition to helping future code, the name change will help us audit
any existing direct uses. Besides get_main_ref_store() itself, it turns
out there is only one. But we know it's OK as it is on the line directly
after the fix from 5ff4b920eb, which will have initialized the pointer.
However it's still a good idea for it to model the proper use of the
accessing function, so we'll convert it.

When cloning with --single-branch, we implement git-fetch's usual
tag-following behavior, grabbing any tag objects that point to objects
we have locally.
When we're a partial clone, though, our has_object_file() check will
actually lazy-fetch each tag. That not only defeats the purpose of
--single-branch, but it does it incredibly slowly, potentially kicking
off a new fetch for each tag. This is even worse for a shallow clone,
which implies --single-branch, because even tags which are supersets of
each other will be fetched individually.
We can fix this by passing OBJECT_INFO_SKIP_FETCH_OBJECT to the call,
which is what git-fetch does in this case.
Likewise, let's include OBJECT_INFO_QUICK, as that's what git-fetch
does. The rationale is discussed in 5827a03545 (fetch: use "quick"
has_sha1_file for tag following, 2016-10-13), but here the tradeoff
would apply even more so because clone is very unlikely to be racing
with another process repacking our newly-created repository.
This may provide a very small speedup even in the non-partial case case,
as we'd avoid calling reprepare_packed_git() for each tag (though in
practice, we'd only have a single packfile, so that reprepare should be
quite cheap).

The oid_array object uses an "int" to store the number of items and the
allocated size. It's rather unlikely for somebody to have more than 2^31
objects in a repository (the sha1's alone would be 40GB!), but if they
do, we'd overflow our alloc variable.
You can reproduce this case with something like:
git init repo
cd repo
# make a pack with 2^24 objects
perl -e '
my $nr = 2**24;
for (my $i = 0; $i < $nr; $i++) {
print "blob\n";
print "data 4\n";
print pack("N", $i);
}
' | git fast-import
# now make 256 copies of it; most of these objects will be duplicates,
# but oid_array doesn't de-dup until all values are read and it can
# sort the result.
cd .git/objects/pack/
pack=$(echo *.pack)
idx=$(echo *.idx)
for i in $(seq 0 255); do
# no need to waste disk space
ln "$pack" "pack-extra-$i.pack"
ln "$idx" "pack-extra-$i.idx"
done
# and now force an oid_array to store all of it
git cat-file --batch-all-objects --batch-check
which results in:
fatal: size_t overflow: 32 * 18446744071562067968
So the good news is that st_mult() sees the problem (the large number is
because our int wraps negative, and then that gets cast to a size_t),
doing the job it was meant to: bailing in crazy situations rather than
causing an undersized buffer.
But we should avoid hitting this case at all, and instead limit
ourselves based on what malloc() is willing to give us. We can easily do
that by switching to size_t.
The cat-file process above made it to ~120GB virtual set size before the
integer overflow (our internal hash storage is 32-bytes now in
preparation for sha256, so we'd expect ~128GB total needed, plus
potentially more to copy from one realloc'd block to another)). After
this patch (and about 130GB of RAM+swap), it does eventually read in the
whole set. No test for obvious reasons.

With 50033772d5 ("connected: verify promisor-ness of partial clone",
2020-01-30), the fast path (checking promisor packs) in
check_connected() now passes a subset of the slow path (rev-list) - if
all objects to be checked are found in promisor packs, both the fast
path and the slow path will pass; otherwise, the fast path will
definitely not pass. This means that we can always attempt the fast path
whenever we need to do the slow path.
The fast path is currently guarded by a flag; therefore, remove that
flag. Also, make the fast path fallback to the slow path - if the fast
path fails, the failing OID and all remaining OIDs will be passed to
rev-list.
The main user-visible benefit is the performance of fetch from a partial
clone - specifically, the speedup of the connectivity check done before
the fetch. In particular, a no-op fetch into a partial clone on my
computer was sped up from 7 seconds to 0.01 seconds. This is a
complement to the work in 2df1aa239c ("fetch: forgo full
connectivity check if --filter", 2020-01-30), which is the child of the
aforementioned 50033772d5. In that commit, the connectivity check
*after* the fetch was sped up.
The addition of the fast path might cause performance reductions in
these cases:
- If a partial clone or a fetch into a partial clone fails, Git will
fruitlessly run rev-list (it is expected that everything fetched
would go into promisor packs, so if that didn't happen, it is most
likely that rev-list will fail too).
- Any connectivity checks done by receive-pack, in the (in my opinion,
unlikely) event that a partial clone serves receive-pack.
I think that these cases are rare enough, and the performance reduction
in this case minor enough (additional object DB access), that the
benefit of avoiding a flag outweighs these.

Commit 645c432d61 (pack-objects: use reachability bitmap index when
generating non-stdout pack, 2016-09-10) added two timing tests for
packing to an on-disk file, both with and without bitmaps. However, the
non-bitmap one isn't interesting to have as part of p5310's regression
suite. It _could_ be used as a baseline to show off the improvement in
the bitmap case, but:
- the point of the t/perf suite is to find performance regressions,
and it won't help with that. We don't compare the numbers between
two tests (which the perf suite has no idea are even related), and
any change in its numbers would have nothing to do with bitmaps.
- it did show off the improvement in the commit message of 645c432d61,
but it wasn't even necessary there. The bitmap case already shows an
improvement (because before the patch, it behaved the same as the
non-bitmap case), and the perf suite is even able to show the
difference between the before and after measurements.
On top of that, it's one of the most expensive tests in the suite,
clocking in around 60s for linux.git on my machine (as compared to 16s
for the bitmapped version). And by default when using "./run", we'd run
it three times!

to read and handle packets until we see a flush. The hidden assumption
here is that anything except PACKET_READ_FLUSH will give us valid packet
data to read. But that's not true; PACKET_READ_DELIM or PACKET_READ_EOF
will leave packet->line as NULL, and we'll segfault trying to look at
it.
Instead, we should follow the more careful model demonstrated on the
client side (e.g., in process_capabilities_v2): keep looping as long
as we get normal packets, and then make sure that we broke out of the
loop due to a real flush. That fixes the segfault and correctly
diagnoses any unexpected input from the client.

The packetize() function takes its input on stdin, and requires 4
separate sub-processes to format a simple string. We can do much better
by getting the length via the shell's "${#packet}" construct. The one
caveat is that the shell can't put a NUL into a variable, so we'll have
to continue to provide the stdin form for a few calls.
There are a few other cleanups here in the touched code:
- the stdin form of packetize() had an extra stray "%s" when printing
the packet
- the converted calls in t5562 can be made simpler by redirecting
output as a block, rather than repeated appending

There's no need for shell libraries to have the executable bit. They're
meant to be sourced, and running them stand-alone is pointless. Let's
reduce any possible confusion by making it more clear they're not meant
to be run this way.

The purpose of lib-credential.sh is to be sourced into other test
scripts. It doesn't need a "#!/bin/sh" line, as running it directly
makes no sense. Nor does it serve any real filetype documentation
purpose, as the file is clearly named with a ".sh" extension.
In the spirit of c74c72034f (test: replace shebangs with descriptions in
shell libraries, 2013-11-25), let's replace it with a human-readable
description.

On Cygwin, the codepath for POSIX-like systems is taken in
run-command.c::start_command(). The prepare_cmd() helper
function is called to decide if the command needs to be looked
up in the PATH. The logic there is to do the PATH-lookup if
and only if it does not have any slash '/' in it. If this test
passes we end up attempting to run the command by appending the
string after each colon-separated component of PATH.
The Cygwin environment supports both Windows and POSIX style
paths, so both forwardslahes '/' and back slashes '\' can be
used as directory separators for any external program the user
supplies.
Examples for path strings which are being incorrectly searched
for in the PATH instead of being executed as is:
- "C:\Program Files\some-program.exe"
- "a\b\c.exe"
To handle these, the PATH lookup detection logic in prepare_cmd()
is taught to know about this Cygwin quirk, by introducing
has_dir_sep(path) helper function to abstract away the difference
between true POSIX and Cygwin systems.
