Fix a Time-of-check to time-of-use (TOCTOU) race in code added in
680ee550d7 (commit: skip discarding the index if there is no
pre-commit hook, 2017-08-14).
This obscure race condition can occur if we e.g. ran the "pre-commit"
hook and it modified the index, but hook_exists() returns false later
on (e.g., because the hook itself went away, the directory became
unreadable, etc.). Then we won't call discard_cache() when we should
have.
The race condition itself probably doesn't matter, and users would
have been unlikely to run into it in practice. This problem has been
noted on-list when 680ee550d7 was discussed[1], but had not been
fixed.
This change is mainly intended to improve the readability of the code
involved, and to make reasoning about it more straightforward. It
wasn't as obvious what we were trying to do here, but by having an
"invoked_hook" it's clearer that e.g. our discard_cache() is happening
because of the earlier hook execution.
Let's also change this for the push-to-checkout hook. Now instead of
checking if the hook exists and either doing a push to checkout or a
push to deploy we'll always attempt a push to checkout. If the hook
doesn't exist we'll fall back on push to deploy. The same behavior as
before, without the TOCTOU race. See 0855331941 (receive-pack:
support push-to-checkout hook, 2014-12-01) for the introduction of the
previous behavior.
This leaves uses of hook_exists() in two places that matter. The
"reference-transaction" check in refs.c, see 6754159767 (refs:
implement reference transaction hook, 2020-06-19), and the
"prepare-commit-msg" hook, see 66618a50f9 (sequencer: run
'prepare-commit-msg' hook, 2018-01-24).
In both of those cases we're saving ourselves CPU time by not
preparing data for the hook that we'll then do nothing with if we
don't have the hook. So using this "invoked_hook" pattern doesn't make
sense in those cases.
The "reference-transaction" and "prepare-commit-msg" hook also aren't
racy. In those cases we'll skip the hook runs if we race with a new
hook being added, whereas in the TOCTOU races being fixed here we were
incorrectly skipping the required post-hook logic.

Fix a regression in 2.35 that roke the use of "rebase" and "stash"
in a secondary worktree.
* en/keep-cwd:
sequencer, stash: fix running from worktree subdir
Remove the now-unused "failure_errno" parameter from the
refs_resolve_ref_unsafe() signature. In my recent 96f6623ada (Merge
branch 'ab/refs-errno-cleanup', 2021-11-29) series we made all of its
callers explicitly request the errno via an output parameter.
As that series shows all but one caller ended up passing in a
boilerplate "ignore_errno", since they only cared about whether the
return value was NULL or not, i.e. if the ref could be resolved.
There was one small issue with that series fixed with a follow-up in
31e3912369 (Merge branch 'ab/refs-errno-cleanup', 2022-01-14) a small
bug in that series was fixed.
After those two there was one caller left in sequencer.c that used the
"failure_errno', but as of the preceding commit it uses a boilerplate
"ignore_errno" instead.
This leaves the public refs API without any use of "failure_errno" at
all. We could still do with a bit of cleanup and generalization
between refs.c and refs/files-backend.c before the "reftable"
integration lands, but that's all internal to the reference code
itself.
So let's remove this output parameter. Not only isn't it used now, but
it's unlikely that we'll want it again in the future. We'd like to
slowly move the refs API to a more file-backend independent way of
communicating error codes, having it use a "failure_errno" was only
the first step in that direction. If this or any other function needs
to communicate what specifically is wrong with the requested "refname"
it'll be better to have the function set some output enum of
well-defined error states than piggy-backend on "errno".

Change code that was faithfully migrated to the new "resolve_errno"
API in ed90f04155 (refs API: make resolve_ref_unsafe() not set errno,
2021-10-16) to stop caring about the errno at all.
When we fail to resolve "HEAD" after the sequencer runs it doesn't
really help to say what the "errno" value is, since the fake backend
errno may or may not reflect anything real about the state of the
".git/HEAD". With the upcoming reftable backend this fakery will
become even more pronounced.
So let's just die() instead of die_errno() here. This will also help
simplify the refs_resolve_ref_unsafe() API. This was the only user of
it that wasn't ignoring the "failure_errno" output parameter.

Now that reset_head() can handle the initial checkout of onto
correctly use it in the "merge" backend instead of forking "git
checkout". This opens the way for us to stop calling the
post-checkout hook in the future. Not running "git checkout" means
that "rebase -i/m" no longer recurse submodules when checking out
"onto" (thanks to Philippe Blain for pointing this out). As the rest
of rebase does not know what to do with submodules this is probably a
good thing. When using merge-ort rebase ought be able to handle
submodules correctly if it parsed the submodule config, such a change
is left for a future patch series.
The "apply" based rebase has avoided forking git checkout
since ac7f467fef ("builtin/rebase: support running "git rebase

moved into libgit by b309a97108 ("reset: extract reset_head() from

The only use of the action parameter is to setup the error messages
for unpack_trees(). All but two cases pass either "checkout" or
"reset". The case that passes "reset --hard" would be better passing
"reset" so that the error messages match the builtin reset command
like all the other callers that are doing a reset. The case that
passes "Fast-forwarded" is only updating HEAD and so the parameter is
unused in that case as it does not call unpack_trees(). The value to
pass to setup_unpack_trees_porcelain() can be determined by checking
whether flags contains RESET_HEAD_HARD without the caller having to
specify it.

allow the subprocess to know which directory the parent process was
running from, so that the subprocess could protect it. However...
When run from a non-main worktree, setup_git_directory() will note
that the discovered git directory
(/PATH/TO/.git/worktree/non-main-worktree) does not match
DEFAULT_GIT_DIR_ENVIRONMENT (see setup_discovered_git_dir()), and
decide to set GIT_DIR in the environment. This matters because...
Whenever git is run with the GIT_DIR environment variable set, and
GIT_WORK_TREE not set, it presumes that '.' is the working tree. So...
This combination results in the subcommand being very confused about
the working tree. Fix it by also setting the GIT_WORK_TREE environment
variable along with setting cmd.dir.
A possibly more involved fix we could consider for later would be to
make setup.c set GIT_WORK_TREE whenever (a) it discovers both the git
directory and the working tree and (b) it decides to set GIT_DIR in the
environment. I did not attempt that here as such would be too big of a

Many git commands that deal with working tree files try to remove a
directory that becomes empty (i.e. "git switch" from a branch that
has the directory to another branch that does not would attempt
remove all files in the directory and the directory itself). This
drops users into an unfamiliar situation if the command was run in
a subdirectory that becomes subject to removal due to the command.
The commands have been taught to keep an empty directory if it is

Commands executed from `git rebase --exec` can give different behavior
from within that environment than they would outside of it, due to the
fact that sequencer.c exports both GIT_DIR and GIT_WORK_TREE. For
example, if the relevant script calls something like
git -C ../otherdir log --format=%H --no-walk
the user may be surprised to find that the command above does not show a
commit hash from ../otherdir, because $GIT_DIR prevents automatic gitdir
detection and makes the -C option useless.
This is a regression in behavior from the original legacy
implemented-in-shell rebase. It is perhaps rare for it to cause
problems in practice, especially since most small problems that were
caused by this area of bugs has been fixed-up in the past in a way that
masked the particular bug observed without fixing the real underlying
problem.
An explanation of how we arrived at the current situation is perhaps
merited. The setting of GIT_DIR and GIT_WORK_TREE done by sequencer.c
arose from a sequence of historical accidents:
* When rebase was implemented as a shell command, it would call
git-sh-setup, which among other things would set GIT_DIR -- but not
export it. This meant that when rebase --exec commands were run via
/bin/sh -c "$COMMAND"
they would not inherit the GIT_DIR setting. The fact that GIT_DIR
was not set in the run $COMMAND is the behavior we'd like to restore.
* When the rebase--helper builtin was introduced to allow incrementally
replacing shell with C code, we had an implementation that was half
shell, half C. In particular, commit 18633e1a22 ("rebase -i: use the
rebase--helper builtin", 2017-02-09) added calls to
exec git rebase--helper ...
which caused rebase--helper to inherit the GIT_DIR environment
variable from the shell. git's setup would change the environment
variable from an absolute path to a relative one (".git"), but would
leave it set. This meant that when rebase --exec commands were run
via
run_command_v_opt(...)
they would inherit the GIT_DIR setting.
* In commit 09d7b6c6fa ("sequencer: pass absolute GIT_DIR to exec
commands", 2017-10-31), it was noted that the GIT_DIR caused problems
with some commands; e.g.
git rebase --exec 'cd subdir && git describe' ...
would have GIT_DIR=.git which was invalid due to the change to the
subdirectory. Instead of questioning why GIT_DIR was set, that commit
instead made sequencer change GIT_DIR to be an absolute path and
explicitly export it via
argv_array_pushf(&child_env, "GIT_DIR=%s", absolute_path(get_git_dir()));
run_command_v_opt_cd_env(..., child_env.argv)
* In commit ab5e67d751 ("sequencer: pass absolute GIT_WORK_TREE to exec
commands", 2018-07-14), it was noted that when GIT_DIR is set but
GIT_WORK_TREE is not, that we do not discover GIT_WORK_TREE but just
assume it is '.'. That is incorrect if trying to run commands from a
subdirectory. However, rather than question why GIT_DIR was set, that
commit instead also added GIT_WORK_TREE to the list of things to
export.
Each of the above problems would have been fixed automatically when
git-rebase became a full builtin, had it not been for the fact that
sequencer.c started exporting GIT_DIR and GIT_WORK_TREE in the interim.
Stop exporting them now.

The `--exec <cmd>` is documented as
Append "exec <cmd>" after each line creating a commit in the final
history.
...
If --autosquash is used, "exec" lines will not be appended for the
intermediate commits, and will only appear at the end of each
squash/fixup series.
Unfortunately, it would also add exec commands after non-pick
operations, such as 'no-op', which could be seen for example with
git rebase -i --exec true HEAD
todo_list_add_exec_commands() intent was to insert exec commands after
each logical pick, while trying to consider a chains of fixup and squash
commits to be part of the pick before it. So it would keep an 'insert'
boolean tracking if it had seen a pick or merge, but not write the exec
command until it saw the next non-fixup/squash command. Since that
would make it miss the final exec command, it had some code that would
check whether it still needed to insert one at the end, but instead of a
simple
if (insert)
it had a
if (insert || <condition that is always true>)
That's buggy; as per the docs, we should only add exec commands for
lines that create commits, i.e. only if insert is true. Fix the
conditional.
There was one testcase in the testsuite that we tweak for this change;
it was introduced in 54fd3243da ("rebase -i: reread the todo list if
`exec` touched it", 2017-04-26), and was merely testing that after an
exec had fired that the todo list would be re-read. The test at the
time would have worked given any revision at all, though it would only
work with 'HEAD' as a side-effect of this bug. Since we're fixing this
bug, choose something other than 'HEAD' for that test.
Finally, add a testcase that verifies when we have no commits to pick,
that we get no exec lines in the generated todo list.

This adds another "set errno" instance, but in this case it's OK and
idiomatic. We are setting it just before calling die_errno(). We could
have some hypothetical die_errno_var(&saved_errno, ...) here, but I
don't think it's worth it. The problem with errno is subtle action at
distance, not this sort of thing. We already use this pattern in a

The code to re-read the edited todo list in "git rebase -i" was
made more robust.
* pw/rebase-reread-todo-after-editing:
rebase: fix todo-list rereading
sequencer.c: factor out a function
Change several commands to remove ignored files by default when they are
in the way. Since some commands (checkout, merge) take a
--no-overwrite-ignore option to allow the user to configure this, and it
may make sense to add that option to more commands (and in the case of
merge, actually plumb that configuration option through to more of the
backends than just the fast-forwarding special case), add little
comments about where such flags would be used.
Incidentally, this fixes a test failure in t7112.

Currently, every caller of unpack_trees() that wants to ensure ignored
files are overwritten by default needs to:
* allocate unpack_trees_options.dir
* flip the DIR_SHOW_IGNORED flag in unpack_trees_options.dir->flags
* call setup_standard_excludes
AND then after the call to unpack_trees() needs to
* call dir_clear()
* deallocate unpack_trees_options.dir
That's a fair amount of boilerplate, and every caller uses identical
code. Make this easier by instead introducing a new boolean value where
the default value (0) does what we want so that new callers of
unpack_trees() automatically get the appropriate behavior. And move all
the handling of unpack_trees_options.dir into unpack_trees() itself.
While preserve_ignored = 0 is the behavior we feel is the appropriate
default, we defer fixing commands to use the appropriate default until a
later commit. So, this commit introduces several locations where we
manually set preserve_ignored=1. This makes it clear where code paths
were previously preserving ignored files when they should not have been;
a future commit will flip these to instead use a value of 0 to get the
behavior we want.

Use the new hook_exists() function instead of find_hook() where the
latter was called in boolean contexts. This make subsequent changes in
a series where we further refactor the hook API clearer, as we won't
conflate wanting to get the path of the hook with checking for its
existence.

Move the find_hook() function from run-command.c to a new hook.c
library. This change establishes a stub library that's pretty
pointless right now, but will see much wider use with Emily Shaffer's
upcoming "configuration-based hooks" series.
Eventually all the hook related code will live in hook.[ch]. Let's
start that process by moving the simple find_hook() function over
as-is.

54fd3243da ("rebase -i: reread the todo list if `exec` touched it",
2017-04-26) sought to reread the todo list after running an exec
command only if it had been changed. To accomplish this it checks the
stat data of the todo list after running an exec command to see if it
has changed. Unfortunately there are two problems, firstly the
implementation is buggy we actually reread the list after each exec
which is quadratic in the number of commit lookups and secondly the
design is predicated on using nanosecond time stamps which are not the
default.
The implementation bug stems from the fact that we write a new todo
list to disk before running each command but do not update the stat
data to reflect this[1].
The design problem is that it is possible for the user to edit the
todo list without changing its size or inode which means we have to
rely on the mtime to tell us if it has changed. Unfortunately unless
git is built with USE_NSEC it is possible for the original and edited
list to share the same mtime.
Ideally "git rebase --edit-todo" would set a flag that we would then
check in sequencer.c. Unfortunately this is approach will not work as
there are scripts in the wild that write to the todo list directly
without running "git rebase --edit-todo". Instead of relying on stat
data this patch simply reads the possibly edited todo list and
compares it to the original with memcmp(). This is much faster than
reparsing the todo list each time. This patch reduces the time to run
git rebase -r -xtrue v2.32.0~100 v2.32.0
which runs 419 exec commands by 6.6%. For comparison fixing the
implementation bug in stat based approach reduces the time by a
further 1.4% and is indistinguishable from never rereading the todo
list.

This code is heavily indented and obscures the high level logic within
the loop. Let's move it to its own function before modifying it in the
next commit. Note that there is a subtle change in behavior if the
todo list cannot be reread. Previously todo_list->current was
incremented before returning, now it returns immediately.

Various mergy operations have been prepared to work efficiently
with the sparse index.
* ds/mergies-with-sparse-index:
sparse-index: integrate with cherry-pick and rebase
sequencer: ensure full index if not ORT strategy
t1092: add cherry-pick, rebase tests
merge-ort: expand only for out-of-cone conflicts
merge: make sparse-aware with ORT
diff: ignore sparse paths in diffstat
Code clean up to migrate callers from older advice_config[] based
API to newer advice_if_enabled() and advice_enabled() API.
* ab/retire-advice-config:
advice: move advice.graftFileDeprecated squashing to commit.[ch]
advice: remove use of global advice_add_embedded_repo
advice: remove read uses of most global `advice_` variables
advice: add enum variants for missing advice variables
The advice message that "git cherry-pick" gives when it asks
conflicted replay of a commit to be resolved by the end user has
been updated.
* zh/cherry-pick-advice:
cherry-pick: use better advice message
"git rebase" by default skips changes that are equivalent to
commits that are already in the history the branch is rebased onto;
give messages when this happens to let the users be aware of
skipped commits, and also teach them how to tell "rebase" to keep
duplicated changes.
* js/advise-when-skipping-cherry-picked:
sequencer: advise if skipping cherry-picked commit
The sequencer is used by 'cherry-pick' and 'rebase' to sequence a list
of operations that modify the index. Since we intend to remove the need
for 'command_requires_full_index', we need to ensure the sparse index is
expanded every time it is written to disk between these steps. That is,
unless the merge strategy is 'ort' where the index can remain sparse
throughout.
There are two main places to be extra careful about a full index:
1. Right before calling merge_trees(), ensure the index is full. This
happens within an 'else' where the 'if' block checks if the 'ort'
strategy is selected.
2. During read_and_refresh_cache(), the index might be written to disk
and converted to sparse in the process. Ensure it expands back to
full afterwards by checking if the strategy is _not_ 'ort'. This
'if' statement is the logical negation of the 'if' in item (1).

The function to add the `exec` commands to the todo list only needed to
be public API because it was not only used internally by the sequencer,
but also by `git rebase --preserve-merges`.
Now that that mode has been removed, we no longer need that function to
be scoped publicly.

Various bugs in "git rebase -r" have been fixed.
* pw/rebase-r-fixes:
rebase -r: fix merge -c with a merge strategy
rebase -r: don't write .git/MERGE_MSG when fast-forwarding
rebase -i: add another reword test
rebase -r: make 'merge -c' behave like reword
Checking out all the paths from HEAD during the last conflicted
step in "git rebase" and continuing would cause the step to be
skipped (which is expected), but leaves MERGE_MSG file behind in
$GIT_DIR and confuses the next "git commit", which has been
corrected.
* pw/rebase-skip-final-fix:
rebase --continue: remove .git/MERGE_MSG
rebase --apply: restore some tests
t3403: fix commit authorship
Silently skipping commits when rebasing with --no-reapply-cherry-picks
(currently the default behavior) can cause user confusion. Issue
warnings when this happens, as well as advice on how to preserve the
skipped commits.
These warnings and advice are displayed only when using the (default)
"merge" rebase backend.
Update the git-rebase docs to mention the warnings and advice.
