Rewrite of "git submodule" in C continues.
* ar/submodule-add:
submodule: drop unused sm_name parameter from show_fetch_remotes()
submodule--helper: introduce add-clone subcommand
submodule--helper: refactor module_clone()
submodule: prefix die messages with 'fatal'
t7400: test failure to add submodule in tracked path
Let's add a new "add-clone" subcommand to `git submodule--helper` with
the goal of converting part of the shell code in git-submodule.sh
related to `git submodule add` into C code. This new subcommand clones
the repository that is to be added, and checks out to the appropriate
branch.
This is meant to be a faithful conversion that leaves the behaviour of
'cmd_add()' script unchanged.

The standard `die()` function that is used in C code prefixes all the
messages passed to it with 'fatal: '. This does not happen with the
`die` used in 'git-submodule.sh'.
Let's prefix each of the shell die messages with 'fatal: ' so that when
they are converted to C code, the error messages stay the same as before
the conversion.
Note that the shell version of `die` exits with error code 1, while the
C version exits with error code 128. In practice, this does not change
any behaviour, as no functionality in 'submodule add' and 'submodule
update' relies on the value of the exit code.

Over time when parts of submodule have been ported from shell to
builtin, many instances of the submodule helper have been added.
Also added with them are some unnecessary option passing
logic that are based on the `prefix` shell variable which never
gets set in their code flows.
On analysis, the only shell functions which have a valid usage
for the `prefix` shell variable are:
- cmd_update: which is the only function which sets the variable
and thus uses it properly
- cmd_init: which uses the variable via a call from cmd_update
So, remove the unnecessary option parsing logic based on the `prefix`
shell variable.

Commit 1c1518071c (submodule: use "fetch" logic instead of custom remote
discovery, 2020-11-14) rewrote the logic in fetch_in_submodule to do:
elif test "$2" -ne ""
But this is nonsense in shell: -ne is for numeric comparisons. This
should be "=" or more idiomatically:
elif test -n "$2"
But once we fix that, many tests start failing. Because that commit
introduced another problem. The caller that passes 3 arguments looks
like this:
fetch_in_submodule "$sm_path" $depth "$sha1"
Note the unquoted $depth parameter. When it isn't set, the function will
see only 2 arguments, and the function has no idea if what it sees in $2
is an option to go on the command line, or a refspec to pass on stdin.
In the old code before that commit:
fetch_in_submodule () (
sanitize_submodule_env &&
cd "$1" &&
- case "$2" in
- '')
- git fetch ;;
- *)
- shift
- git fetch $(get_default_remote) "$@" ;;
- esac
we treated those the same, so it didn't matter. But in the new logic
(with my fix above):
+ if test $# -eq 3
+ then
+ echo "$3" | git fetch --stdin "$2"
+ elif test -n "$n"
+ then
+ git fetch "$2"
+ else
+ git fetch
+ fi
we use the number of parameters to distinguish the two. Let's insist
that the caller pass an empty string for positional parameter two if
they want to have a third parameter after it.
But that still leaves one problem. In the --stdin block, we
unconditionally pass "$2" to git-fetch, even if it's the empty string.
Rather than add another conditional, we can use :+ parameter expansion
to include it only if it's non-empty. In fact, we can do the same for
the elif, too, simplifying it further. Technically this is overkill,
since we know the --depth parameter will not have whitespace (and
indeed, most callers do not bother quoting it), but it doesn't hurt for
the function to be careful.
It's somewhat amazing that no tests were failing. I think what happened
is that:
- the 3-arg form rarely triggered; any call with a non-empty $depth
and a $sha1 would work, but one with an empty $depth would only have
2 arguments
- because of the wrong arguments to "test", the shell would complain
and exit non-zero. So we never ran the middle conditional at all
- that left every call running "git fetch" with no arguments. A
well-written test could have detected the distinction here, but in
practice omitting --depth just means fetching more commits, and
fetching everything (rather than a single sha1) works as long as the
commit in question is reachable

The previous two commits removed the last use of a function in this
library, but most of it had been dead code for a while[1][2]. Only the
"get_default_remote" function was still being used.
Even though we had a manual page for this library it was never
intended (or I expect, actually) used outside of git.git. Let's just
remove it, if anyone still cares about a function here they can pull
them into their own project[3].

Replace a use of the get_default_remote() function with an invocation
of "git fetch"
The "fetch" command already has logic to discover the remote for the
current branch. However, before it learned to accept a custom
refspec *and* use its idea of the default remote, it wasn't possible
to get rid of some equivalent of the "get_default_remote" invocation
here.
As it turns out the recently added "--stdin" option to fetch[1] gives
us a way to do that. Let's use it instead.
While I'm at it simplify the "fetch_in_submodule" function. It wasn't
necessary to pass "$@" to "fetch" since we'd only ever provide one
SHA-1 as an argument in the previous "*" codepath (in addition to
"--depth=N"). Rewrite the function to more narrowly reflect its
use-case.

Convert submodule subcommand 'summary' to a builtin and call it via
'git-submodule.sh'.
The shell version had to call $diff_cmd twice, once to find the modified
modules cared by the user and then again, with that list of modules
to do various operations for computing the summary of those modules.
On the other hand, the C version does not need a second call to
$diff_cmd since it reuses the module list from the first call to do the
aforementioned tasks.
In the C version, we use the combination of setting a child process'
working directory to the submodule path and then calling
'prepare_submodule_repo_env()' which also sets the 'GIT_DIR' to '.git',
so that we can be certain that those spawned processes will not access
the superproject's ODB by mistake.
A behavioural difference between the C and the shell version is that the
shell version outputs two line feeds after the 'git log' output when run
outside of the tests while the C version outputs one line feed in any
case. The reason for this is that the shell version calls log with
'--pretty=format:<fmt>' whose output is followed by two echo
calls; 'format' does not have "terminator" semantics like its 'tformat'
counterpart. So, the log output is terminated by a newline only when
invoked by the user and not when invoked from the scripts. This results
in the one & two line feed differences in the shell version.
On the other hand, the C version calls log with '--pretty=<fmt>'
which is equivalent to '--pretty:tformat:<fmt>' which is then
followed by a 'printf("\n")'. Due to its "terminator" semantics the
log output is always terminated by newline and hence one line feed in
any case.
Also, when we try to pass an option-like argument after a non-option
argument, for instance:
git submodule summary HEAD --foo-bar
(or)
git submodule summary HEAD --cached
That argument would be treated like a path to the submodule for which
the user is requesting a summary. So, the option ends up having no
effect. Though, passing '--quiet' is an exception to this:
git submodule summary HEAD --quiet
While 'summary' doesn't support '--quiet', we don't get an output for
the above command as '--quiet' is treated as a path which means we get
an output only if a submodule whose path is '--quiet' exists.
The error message in case of computing a summary for non-existent
submodules in the C version is different from that of the shell version.
Since the new error message is not marked for translation, change the
'test_i18ngrep' in t7421.4 to 'grep'.

the environment.

git-submodule.sh: setup uninitialized variables
We have an environment variable `jobs=16` defined in our CI system, and
this environment makes our build job failed with the following message:
error: pathspec '16' did not match any file(s) known to git
The pathspec '16' for Git command is from the environment variable
"jobs".
This is because "git-submodule" command is implemented in shell script,
and environment variables may change its behavior. Set values for
uninitialized variables, such as "jobs" and "recommend_shallow" will
fix this issue.

Unless --force is specified, 'submodule add' checks if the destination
path is ignored by calling 'git add --dry-run --ignore-missing', and,
if that call fails, aborts with a custom "path is ignored" message (a
slight variant of what 'git add' shows). Aborting early rather than
letting the downstream 'git add' call fail is done so that the command
exits before cloning into the destination path. However, in rare
cases where the dry-run call fails for a reason other than the path
being ignored---for example, due to a preexisting index.lock
file---displaying the "ignored path" error message hides the real
source of the failure.
Instead of displaying the tailored "ignored path" message, let's
report the standard error from the dry run to give the caller more
accurate information about failures that are not due to an ignored
path.
For the ignored path case, this leads to the following change in the
error message:
The following [-path is-]{+paths are+} ignored by one of your .gitignore files:
<destination path>
Use -f if you really want to add [-it.-]{+them.+}
The new phrasing is a bit awkward, because 'submodule add' is only
dealing with one destination path. Alternatively, we could continue
to use the tailored message when the exit code is 1 (the expected
status for a failure due to an ignored path) and relay the standard
error for all other non-zero exits. That, however, risks hiding the
message of unrelated failures that share an exit code of 1, so it
doesn't seem worth doing just to avoid a clunkier, but still clear,
error message.

clone --recurse-submodules: prevent name squatting on Windows
is_ntfs_dotgit(): only verify the leading segment
...
In addition to preventing `.git` from being tracked by Git, on Windows
we also have to prevent `git~1` from being tracked, as the default NTFS
short name (also known as the "8.3 filename") for the file name `.git`
is `git~1`, otherwise it would be possible for malicious repositories to
write directly into the `.git/` directory, e.g. a `post-checkout` hook
that would then be executed _during_ a recursive clone.
When we implemented appropriate protections in 2b4c6efc82 (read-cache:
optionally disallow NTFS .git variants, 2014-12-16), we had analyzed
carefully that the `.git` directory or file would be guaranteed to be
the first directory entry to be written. Otherwise it would be possible
e.g. for a file named `..git` to be assigned the short name `git~1` and
subsequently, the short name generated for `.git` would be `git~2`. Or
`git~3`. Or even `~9999999` (for a detailed explanation of the lengths
we have to go to protect `.gitmodules`, see the commit message of
e7cb0b4455 (is_ntfs_dotgit: match other .git files, 2018-05-11)).
However, by exploiting two issues (that will be addressed in a related
patch series close by), it is currently possible to clone a submodule
into a non-empty directory:
- On Windows, file names cannot end in a space or a period (for
historical reasons: the period separating the base name from the file
extension was not actually written to disk, and the base name/file
extension was space-padded to the full 8/3 characters, respectively).
Helpfully, when creating a directory under the name, say, `sub.`, that
trailing period is trimmed automatically and the actual name on disk
is `sub`.
This means that while Git thinks that the submodule names `sub` and
`sub.` are different, they both access `.git/modules/sub/`.
- While the backslash character is a valid file name character on Linux,
it is not so on Windows. As Git tries to be cross-platform, it
therefore allows backslash characters in the file names stored in tree
objects.
Which means that it is totally possible that a submodule `c` sits next
to a file `c\..git`, and on Windows, during recursive clone a file
called `..git` will be written into `c/`, of course _before_ the
submodule is cloned.
Note that the actual exploit is not quite as simple as having a
submodule `c` next to a file `c\..git`, as we have to make sure that the
directory `.git/modules/b` already exists when the submodule is checked
out, otherwise a different code path is taken in `module_clone()` that
does _not_ allow a non-empty submodule directory to exist already.
Even if we will address both issues nearby (the next commit will
disallow backslash characters in tree entries' file names on Windows,
and another patch will disallow creating directories/files with trailing
spaces or periods), it is a wise idea to defend in depth against this
sort of attack vector: when submodules are cloned recursively, we now
_require_ the directory to be empty, addressing CVE-2019-1349.
Note: the code path we patch is shared with the code path of `git
submodule update --init`, which must not expect, in general, that the
directory is empty. Hence we have to introduce the new option
`--force-init` and hand it all the way down from `git submodule` to the
actual `git submodule--helper` process that performs the initial clone.

Running "git add" on a repository created inside the current
repository is an explicit indication that the user wants to add it
as a submodule, but when the HEAD of the inner repository is on an
unborn branch, it cannot be added as a submodule. Worse, the files
in its working tree can be added as if they are a part of the outer
repository, which is not what the user wants. These problems are
being addressed.

Robin reported that
git submodule foreach --quiet git pull --quiet origin
is not really quiet anymore [1]. "git pull" behaves as if --quiet is not
given.
This happens because parseopt in submodule--helper will try to parse
both --quiet options as if they are foreach's options, not git-pull's.
The parsed options are removed from the command line. So when we do
pull later, we execute just this
git pull origin
When calling submodule helper, adding "--" in front of "git pull" will
stop parseopt for parsing options that do not really belong to
submodule--helper foreach.
PARSE_OPT_KEEP_UNKNOWN is removed as a safety measure. parseopt should
never see unknown options or something has gone wrong. There are also
a couple usage string update while I'm looking at them.
While at it, I also add "--" to other subcommands that pass "$@" to
submodule--helper. "$@" in these cases are paths and less likely to be
--something-like-this. But the point still stands, git-submodule has
parsed and classified what are options, what are paths. submodule--helper
should never consider paths passed by git-submodule to be options even
if they look like one.
The test case is also contributed by Robin.
[1] it should be quiet before fc1b9243cd (submodule: port submodule
subcommand 'foreach' from shell to C, 2018-05-10) because parseopt
can't accidentally eat options then.

When the path given to 'git submodule add' is an existing repository
that is not in the index, the repository is passed to 'git add'. If
this repository doesn't have a commit checked out, we don't get a
useful result: there is no subproject OID to track, and any untracked
files in the sub-repository are added as blobs in the top-level
repository.
To avoid getting into this state, abort if the path is a repository
that doesn't have a commit checked out. Note that this check must
come before the 'git add --dry-run' check because the next commit will
make 'git add' fail when given a repository that doesn't have a commit
checked out.

When cloning with --recurse-submodules a superproject with at least one
submodule with HEAD pointing to an unborn branch, the clone goes
something like this:
Cloning into 'test'...
<messages about cloning of superproject>
Submodule '<name>' (<uri>) registered for path '<submodule path>'
Cloning into '<submodule path>'...
fatal: Couldn't find remote ref HEAD
Unable to fetch in submodule path '<submodule path>'
<messages about fetching with SHA-1>
From <uri>
* branch <hash> -> FETCH_HEAD
Submodule path '<submodule path>': checked out '<hash>'
In other words, first, a fetch is done with no hash arguments (that is,
a fetch of HEAD) resulting in a "Couldn't find remote ref HEAD" error;
then, a fetch is done given a hash, which succeeds.
The fetch given a hash was added in fb43e31f2b ("submodule: try harder
to fetch needed sha1 by direct fetching sha1", 2016-02-24), and the
"Unable to fetch..." message was downgraded from a fatal error to a
notice in e30d833671 ("git-submodule.sh: try harder to fetch a
submodule", 2018-05-16).
This commit improves the notice to be clearer that we are retrying the
fetch, and that the previous messages (in particular, the fatal errors
from fetch) do not necessarily indicate that the whole command fails. In
other words:
- If the HEAD-fetch succeeds and we then have the commit we want,
git-submodule prints no explanation.
- If the HEAD-fetch succeeds and we do not have the commit we want, but
the hash-fetch succeeds, git-submodule prints no explanation.
- If the HEAD-fetch succeeds and we do not have the commit we want, but
the hash-fetch fails, git-submodule prints a fatal error.
- If the HEAD-fetch fails, fetch prints a fatal error, and
git-submodule informs the user that it will retry by fetching
specific commits by hash.
- If the hash-fetch then succeeds, git-submodule prints no
explanation (besides the ones already printed).
- If the HEAD-fetch then fails, git-submodule prints a fatal error.
It could be said that we should just eliminate the HEAD-fetch
altogether, but that changes some behavior (in particular, some refs
that were opportunistically updated would no longer be), so I have left
that alone for now.
There is an analogous situation with the fetching code in fetch_finish()
and surrounding functions. For now, I have added a NEEDSWORK.

The "git submodule summary" subcommand showed shortened commit
object names by mechanically truncating them at 7-hexdigit, which
has been improved to let "rev-parse --short" scale the length of
the abbreviation with the size of the repository.
* sh/submodule-summary-abbrev-fix:
git-submodule.sh: shorten submodule SHA-1s using rev-parse
Until now, `git submodule summary` was always emitting 7-character
SHA-1s that have a higher chance of being ambiguous for larger
repositories. Use `git rev-parse --short` instead, which will
determine suitable short SHA-1 lengths.
When a submodule hasn't been initialized with "submodule init" or
not cloned, `git rev-parse` would not work in it yet; as a fallback,
use the original method of cutting at 7 hexdigits.

The submodule support has been updated to read from the blob at
HEAD:.gitmodules when the .gitmodules file is missing from the
working tree.
* ao/submodule-wo-gitmodules-checked-out:
t/helper: add test-submodule-nested-repo-config
submodule: support reading .gitmodules when it's not in the working tree
submodule: add a helper to check if it is safe to write to .gitmodules
t7506: clean up .gitmodules properly before setting up new scenario
submodule: use the 'submodule--helper config' command
submodule--helper: add a new 'config' subcommand
t7411: be nicer to future tests and really clean things up
t7411: merge tests 5 and 6
submodule: factor out a config_set_in_gitmodules_file_gently function
submodule: add a print_config_from_gitmodules() helper
When the .gitmodules file is not available in the working tree, try
using the content from the index and from the current branch. This
covers the case when the file is part of the repository but for some
reason it is not checked out, for example because of a sparse checkout.
This makes it possible to use at least the 'git submodule' commands
which *read* the gitmodules configuration file without fully populating
the working tree.
Writing to .gitmodules will still require that the file is checked out,
so check for that before calling config_set_in_gitmodules_file_gently.
Add a similar check also in git-submodule.sh::cmd_add() to anticipate
the eventual failure of the "git submodule add" command when .gitmodules
is not safely writeable; this prevents the command from leaving the
repository in a spurious state (e.g. the submodule repository was cloned
but .gitmodules was not updated because
config_set_in_gitmodules_file_gently failed).
Moreover, since config_from_gitmodules() now accesses the global object
store, it is necessary to protect all code paths which call the function
against concurrent access to the global object store. Currently this
only happens in builtin/grep.c::grep_submodules(), so call
grep_read_lock() before invoking code involving
config_from_gitmodules().
Finally, add t7418-submodule-sparse-gitmodules.sh to verify that reading
from .gitmodules succeeds and that writing to it fails when the file is
not checked out.
NOTE: there is one rare case where this new feature does not work
properly yet: nested submodules without .gitmodules in their working
tree. This has been documented with a warning and a test_expect_failure
item in t7814, and in this case the current behavior is not altered: no
config is read.

"git submodule update" is getting rewritten piece-by-piece into C.
* sb/submodule-update-in-c:
submodule--helper: introduce new update-module-mode helper
submodule--helper: replace connect-gitdir-workingtree by ensure-core-worktree
builtin/submodule--helper: factor out method to update a single submodule
builtin/submodule--helper: store update_clone information in a struct
builtin/submodule--helper: factor out submodule updating
git-submodule.sh: rename unused variables
git-submodule.sh: align error reporting for update mode to use path
This reverts commit 7e25437d35, reversing
changes made to 00624d608c.
v2.19.0-rc0~165^2~1 (submodule: ensure core.worktree is set after
update, 2018-06-18) assumes an "absorbed" submodule layout, where the
submodule's Git directory is in the superproject's .git/modules/
directory and .git in the submodule worktree is a .git file pointing
there. In particular, it uses $GIT_DIR/modules/$name to find the
submodule to find out whether it already has core.worktree set, and it
uses connect_work_tree_and_git_dir if not, resulting in
fatal: could not open sub/.git for writing
The context behind that patch: v2.19.0-rc0~165^2~2 (submodule: unset
core.worktree if no working tree is present, 2018-06-12) unsets
core.worktree when running commands like "git checkout
--recurse-submodules" to switch to a branch without the submodule. If
a user then uses "git checkout --no-recurse-submodules" to switch back
to a branch with the submodule and runs "git submodule update", this
patch is needed to ensure that commands using the submodule directly
are aware of the path to the worktree.
It is late in the release cycle, so revert the whole 3-patch series.
We can try again later for 2.20.

This chews off a bit of the shell part of the update command in

a C function that is able to determine the submodule update strategy,
it as a nicety, make determine_submodule_update_strategy accessible

e98317508c (submodule: ensure core.worktree is set after update,
2018-06-18) was overly aggressive in calling connect_work_tree_and_git_dir
as that ensures both the 'core.worktree' configuration is set as well as
setting up correct gitlink file pointing at the git directory.
We do not need to check for the gitlink in this part of the cmd_update
in git-submodule.sh, as the initial call to update-clone will have ensured
that. So we can reduce the work to only (check and potentially) set the
'core.worktree' setting.
While at it move the check from shell to C as that proves to be useful in
a follow up patch, as we do not need the 'name' in shell now.
