Currently, we have a function to resolve paths, strbuf_realpath. This
function canonicalizes paths like realpath(3), but permits a trailing
component to be absent from the file system. In other words, this is
the behavior of the GNU realpath(1) without any arguments.
In the future, we'll need this same behavior, except that we want to
allow for any number of missing trailing components, which is the
behavior of GNU realpath(1) with the -m option. This is useful because
we'll want to canonicalize a path that may point to a not yet present
path under the .git directory. For example, a user may want to know
where an arbitrary ref would be stored if it existed in the file system.
Let's refactor strbuf_realpath to move most of the code to an internal
function and then pass it two flags to control its behavior. We'll add
a strbuf_realpath_forgiving function that has our new behavior, and
leave strbuf_realpath with the older, stricter behavior.

Long time ago when the _git_complete helper was introduced, _gitk was
replaced with __gitk_main, and a placeholder for backwards compatibility
pointing to __git_wrap_main_gitk was left in place.
When "__git_complete gitk __gitk_main" was called, that created the
__git_wrap__gitk_main helper, which is just basically "__git_func_wrap
__gitk_main" plus `complete` options.
Unfortunately the commit b0a4b2d257 (completion: add support for
backwards compatibility, 2012-05-19) missed a previous instance of a
call to _gitk in _git_gitk
So, basically we had __git_wrap__git_main -> __git_func_wrap __git_main ->
__git_complete_command gitk -> _git_gitk -> _gitk ->
__git_wrap__gitk_main -> __git_func_wrap __gitk_main -> __gitk_main.
There was never any need to call __git_func_wrap twice. Since _git_gitk
is always called inside the wrapper, it can call __gitk_main directly.
And then, in commit 441ecdab37 (completion: bash: remove old compat
wrappers, 2020-10-27) _gitk was removed, which triggers the following
error:
_git_gitk:9: command not found: _gitk
Let's call the correct function: __gitk_main.

Ralf Thielow reports that "git fetch" with submodule.recurse set can
result in a bogus and infinitely recursive fetching of the same
submodule.
We normally get the list of builtin commands by expanding BUILTIN_OBJS.
But for commands which are embedded inside another's source file (e.g.,
cmd_show() in builtin/log.c), the Makefile needs to be told explicitly
about them.
Since cmd_maintenance() is inside buitin/gc.c, it should be listed
explicitly in the BUILT_INS list in the Makefile. Not doing so isn't
_too_ tragic, as it simply means we will not make a git-maintenance
symlink in libexec/git-core. Since we encourage people to use the "git
foo" form, even in scripts which have put libexec into their PATH,
nobody seems to have noticed.

core.sharedRepository defines which permissions Git should set when
creating files in $GIT_DIR, so that the repository may be shared with
other users. But (in its current form) the setting shouldn't affect how
files are created in the working tree. This is not respected by apply
and am (which uses apply), when creating leading directories:
$ cat d.patch
diff --git a/d/f b/d/f
new file mode 100644
index 0000000..e69de29
Apply without the setting:
$ umask 0077
$ git apply d.patch
$ ls -ld d
drwx------
Apply with the setting:
$ umask 0077
$ git -c core.sharedRepository=0770 apply d.patch
$ ls -ld d
drwxrws---
Only the leading directories are affected. That's because they are
created with safe_create_leading_directories(), which calls
adjust_shared_perm() to set the directories' permissions based on
core.sharedRepository. To fix that, let's introduce a variant of this
function that ignores the setting, and use it in apply. Also add a
regression test and a note in the function documentation about the use
of each variant according to the destination (working tree or git
dir).

The ctime_r() and asctime_r() functions are reentrant, but have
no check that the buffer we pass in is long enough (the manpage says it
"should have room for at least 26 bytes"). Since this is such an

as well as its more convenient strbuf_addftime() wrapper, let's ban both

A test marked with EXPENSIVE creates two 2.5GB files and adds them to
the repository. This takes 194s to run on my machine, versus 2s when the
EXPENSIVE prereq isn't set. We can trim this down a bit by doing two
things:
- use "git commit --quiet" to avoid spending time generating a diff
summary (this actually only helps for the second commit, but I've
added it here to both for consistency). This shaves off 8s.
- set core.compression to 0. We know these files are full of random
bytes, and so won't compress (that's the point of the test!).
Spending cycles on zlib is pointless. This shaves off 122s.
After this, my total time to run the script is 64s. That won't help
normal runs without GIT_TEST_LONG set, of course, but it's easy enough
to do.

The traditional gmtime(), localtime(), ctime(), and asctime() functions
return pointers to shared storage. This means they're not thread-safe,
and they also run the risk of somebody holding onto the result across
multiple calls (where each call invalidates the previous result).
All callers should be using their reentrant counterparts.

To generate its filename, the 'git bugreport' builtin asks the system
for the current time with 'localtime()'. Since this uses a shared
buffer, it is not thread-safe.
Even though 'git bugreport' is not multi-threaded, using localtime() can
trigger some static analysis tools to complain, and a quick
$ git grep -oh 'localtime\(_.\)\?' -- **/*.c | sort | uniq -c
shows that the only usage of the thread-unsafe 'localtime' is in a piece
of documentation.
So, convert this instance to use the thread-safe version for
consistency, and to appease some analysis tools.

We spawn an external pack-objects process to actually send objects to
the remote side. If we are killed by a signal during this process, then
pack-objects may continue to run. As soon as it starts producing output
for the pack, it will see a failure writing to upload-pack and exit
itself. But before then, it may do significant work traversing the
object graph, compressing deltas, etc, which will all be pointless. So
let's make sure to kill as soon as we know that the caller will not read
the result.
There's no test here, since it's inherently racy, but here's an easy
reproduction is on a large-ish repo like linux.git:
- make sure you don't have pack bitmaps (since they make the enumerating
phase go quickly). For linux.git it takes ~30s or so to walk the
whole graph on my machine.
- run "git clone --no-local -q . dst"; the "-q" is important because
if pack-objects is writing progress to upload-pack (to get
multiplexed over the sideband to the client), then it will notice
pretty quickly the failure to write to stderr
- kill the client-side clone process in another terminal (don't use
^C, as that will send SIGINT to all of the processes)
- run "ps au | grep git" or similar to observe upload-pack dying
within 5 seconds (it will send a keepalive that will notice the
client has gone away)
- but you'll still see pack-objects consuming 100% CPU (and 1GB+ of
RAM) during the traversal and delta compression phases. It will exit
as soon as it starts to write the pack (when it will notice that
upload-pack went away).
With this patch, pack-objects exits as soon as upload-pack does.
