Git's source code refers to timestamps as unsigned long, which is
ill-defined, as there is no guarantee about the number of bits that
data type has.
In preparation of switching to another data type that is large enough
to hold "far in the future" dates, we need to prepare the t0006-date.sh
script for the case where we *still* cannot format those dates if the
system library uses 32-bit time_t.

Git's source code refers to timestamps as unsigned longs. On 32-bit
platforms, as well as on Windows, unsigned long is not large enough to
capture dates that are "absurdly far in the future".
It is perfectly valid by the C standard, of course, for the `long` data
type to refer to 32-bit integers. That is why the `time_t` data type
exists: so that it can be 64-bit even if `long` is 32-bit. Git's source
code simply uses an incorrect data type for timestamps, is all.
The earlier quick fix 6b9c38e14c (t0006: skip "far in the future" test
when unsigned long is not long enough, 2016-07-11) papered over this
issue simply by skipping the respective test cases on platforms where
they would fail due to the data type in use.
This quick fix, however, tests for *long* to be 64-bit or not. What we
need, though, is a test that says whether *whatever data type we use for
timestamps* is 64-bit or not.
The same quick fix was used to handle the similar problem where Git's
source code uses `unsigned long` to represent size, instead of `size_t`,
conflating the two issues.
So let's just add another prerequisite to test specifically whether
timestamps are represented by a 64-bit data type or not. Later, after we
switch to a larger data type, we can flip that prerequisite to test
`time_t` instead of `long`.

As we are not yet moving everything to size_t but still using ulong
internally when talking about the size of object, platforms with

The ustar format represents timestamps as seconds since the
epoch, but only has room to store 11 octal digits. To
express anything larger, we need to use an extended header.
This is exactly the same case we fixed for the size field in
the previous commit, and the solution here follows the same
pattern.
This is even mentioned as an issue in f2f0267 (archive-tar:
use xsnprintf for trivial formatting, 2015-09-24), but since
it only affected things far in the future, it wasn't deemed
worth dealing with. But note that my calculations claiming
thousands of years were off there; because our xsnprintf
produces a NUL byte, we only have until the year 2242 to fix
this.
Given that this is just around the corner (geologically
speaking, anyway), and because it's easy to fix, let's just
make it work. Unlike the previous fix for "size", where we
had to write an individual extended header for each file, we
can write one global header (since we have only one mtime
for the whole archive).
There's a slight bit of trickiness there. We may already be
writing a global header with a "comment" field for the
commit sha1. So we need to write our new field into the same
header. To do this, we push the decision of whether to write
such a header down into write_global_extended_header(),
which will now assemble the header as it sees fit, and will
return early if we have nothing to write (in practice, we'll
only have a large mtime if it comes from a commit, but this
makes it also work if you set your system clock ahead such
that time() returns a huge value).
Note that we don't (and never did) handle negative
timestamps (i.e., before 1970). This would probably not be
too hard to support in the same way, but since git does not
support negative timestamps at all, I didn't bother here.
After writing the extended header, we munge the timestamp in
the ustar headers to the maximum-allowable size. This is
wrong, but it's the least-wrong thing we can provide to a
tar implementation that doesn't understand pax headers (it's
also what GNU tar does).

The ustar format has a fixed-length field for the size of
each file entry which is supposed to contain up to 11 bytes
of octal-formatted data plus a NUL or space terminator.
These means that the largest size we can represent is
077777777777, or 1 byte short of 8GB. The correct solution
for a larger file, according to POSIX.1-2001, is to add an
extended pax header, similar to how we handle long
filenames. This patch does that, and writes zero for the
size field in the ustar header (the last bit is not
mentioned by POSIX, but it matches how GNU tar behaves with
--format=pax).
This should be a strict improvement over the current
behavior, which is to die in xsnprintf with a "BUG".
However, there's some interesting history here.
Prior to f2f0267 (archive-tar: use xsnprintf for trivial
formatting, 2015-09-24), we silently overflowed the "size"
field. The extra bytes ended up in the "mtime" field of the
header, which was then immediately written itself,
overwriting our extra bytes. What that means depends on how
many bytes we wrote.
If the size was 64GB or greater, then we actually overflowed
digits into the mtime field, meaning our value was
effectively right-shifted by those lost octal digits. And
this patch is again a strict improvement over that.
But if the size was between 8GB and 64GB, then our 12-byte
field held all of the actual digits, and only our NUL
terminator overflowed. According to POSIX, there should be a
NUL or space at the end of the field. However, GNU tar seems
to be lenient here, and will correctly parse a size up 64GB
(minus one) from the field. So sizes in this range might
have just worked, depending on the implementation reading
the tarfile.
This patch is mostly still an improvement there, as the 8GB
limit is specifically mentioned in POSIX as the correct
limit. But it's possible that it could be a regression
(versus the pre-f2f0267 state) if all of the following are
true:
1. You have a file between 8GB and 64GB.
2. Your tar implementation _doesn't_ know about pax
extended headers.
3. Your tar implementation _does_ parse 12-byte sizes from
the ustar header without a delimiter.
It's probably not worth worrying about such an obscure set
of conditions, but I'm documenting it here just in case.

The ustar format only has room for 11 (or 12, depending on
some implementations) octal digits for the size and mtime of
each file. For values larger than this, we have to add pax
extended headers to specify the real data, and git does not
yet know how to do so.
Before fixing that, let's start off with some test
infrastructure, as designing portable and efficient tests
for this is non-trivial.
We want to use the system tar to check our output (because
what we really care about is interoperability), but we can't
rely on it:
1. being able to read pax headers
2. being able to handle huge sizes or mtimes
3. supporting a "t" format we can parse
So as a prerequisite, we can feed the system tar a reference
tarball to make sure it can handle these features. The
reference tar here was created with:
dd if=/dev/zero seek=64G bs=1 count=1 of=huge
touch -d @68719476737 huge
tar cf - --format=pax |
head -c 2048
using GNU tar. Note that this is not a complete tarfile, but
it's enough to contain the headers we want to examine.
Likewise, we need to convince git that it has a 64GB blob to
output. Running "git add" on that 64GB file takes many
minutes of CPU, and even compressed, the result is 64MB. So
again, I pre-generated that loose object, and then took only
the first 2k of it. That should be enough to generate 2MB of
data before hitting an inflate error, which is plenty for us
to generate the tar header (and then die of SIGPIPE while
streaming the rest out).
The tests are split so that we test as much as we can even
with an uncooperative system tar. This actually catches the
current breakage (which is that we die("BUG") trying to
write the ustar header) on every system, and then on systems
where we can, we go farther and actually verify the result.

In their effort to emulate POSIX as close as possible, the MSYS tools
and Cygwin treat the file name "foo.exe" as "foo" when the latter is
asked for, but not present, but the former is present.
Following this rule, 'cp /bin/sh a/bin' actually copies the file
/bin/sh.exe, so that we now have a/bin/sh.exe in the repository. This
difference did not matter in the tests in the past because we were only
interested in the equality of contents generated in various ways. But
recently added tests check file names, in particular, the presence of
"a/bin/sh". This test fails on Windows, as we do not have a file by this

This patch fixes two problems with using :(glob) (or even "*.c"
without ":(glob)").
The first one is we forgot to turn on the 'recursive' flag in struct
pathspec. Without that, tree_entry_interesting() will not mark
potential directories "interesting" so that it can confirm whether
those directories have anything matching the pathspec.
The marking directories interesting has a side effect that we need to
walk inside a directory to realize that there's nothing interested in
there. By that time, 'archive' code has already written the (empty)
directory down. That means lots of empty directories in the result
archive.
This problem is fixed by lazily writing directories down when we know
they are actually needed. There is a theoretical bug in this
implementation: we can't write empty trees/directories that match that
pathspec.
path_exists() is also made stricter in order to detect non-matching
pathspec because when this 'recursive' flag is on, we most likely
match some directories. The easiest way is not consider any
directories "matched".

In commit ee27ca4, we started restricting remote git-archive
invocations to only accessing reachable commits. This
matches what upload-pack allows, but does restrict some
useful cases (e.g., HEAD:foo). We loosened this in 0f544ee,
which allows `foo:bar` as long as `foo` is a ref tip.
However, that still doesn't allow many useful things, like:
1. Commits accessible from a ref, like `foo^:bar`, which
are reachable
2. Arbitrary sha1s, even if they are reachable.
We can do a full object-reachability check for these cases,
but it can be quite expensive if the client has sent us the
sha1 of a tree; we have to visit every sub-tree of every
commit in the worst case.
Let's instead give site admins an escape hatch, in case they
prefer the more liberal behavior. For many sites, the full
object database is public anyway (e.g., if you allow dumb
walker access), or the site admin may simply decide the
security/convenience tradeoff is not worth it.

In t5000, we test the built-in ".tar.gz" config for
git-archive. To make our tests portable, we check that we
have a way to both gzip and gunzip, and we respected
environment variables to point to alternate commands for
doing these operations.
However, the $GZIP variable did not actually do anything, as
changing it would not affect the baked-in value in
archive-tar.c. Moreover, setting the variable $GZIP
influences gzip itself. From the gzip man page:
The environment variable GZIP can hold a set of default
options for gzip. These options are interpreted first and
can be overwritten by explicit command line parameters.
We could rename this variable, and use it to set up custom
config (or even have a Makefile knob to affect the built
binary), but it is not worth the trouble; nobody has ever
reported a problem with the baked-in default, and they can
always change it via config if they need to. Let's just drop
the variable and use "gzip" in the test (keeping the
prerequisite, of course).
While we're at it, we can drop the GUNZIP variable and
prerequisite; it uses "gzip -d", so if we have GZIP, we
will have both.
We can also use test_lazy_prereq for the gzip prerequisite,
which is simpler and behaves more consistently with the rest
of git (e.g., by making output available when the test is

Usually git is careful not to allow clients to fetch
arbitrary objects from the database; for example, objects
received via upload-pack must be reachable from a ref.
Upload-archive breaks this by feeding the client's tree-ish
directly to get_sha1, which will accept arbitrary hex sha1s,
reflogs, etc.
This is not a problem if all of your objects are publicly
reachable anyway (or at least public to anybody who can run
upload-archive). Or if you are making the repo available by
dumb protocols like http or rsync (in which case the client
can read your whole object db directly).
But for sites which allow access only through smart
protocols, clients may be able to fetch trees from commits
that exist in the server's object database but are not
referenced (e.g., because history was rewound).
This patch tightens upload-archive's lookup to use dwim_ref
rather than get_sha1. This means a remote client can only
fetch the tip of a named ref, not an arbitrary sha1 or
reflog entry.
This also restricts some legitimate requests, too:
1. Reachable non-tip commits, like:
git archive --remote=$url v1.0~5
2. Sub-trees of reachable commits, like:
git archive --remote=$url v1.7.7:Documentation
