Cloning from a local repository blindly copies or hardlinks all the files
under objects/ hierarchy. This results in two issues:
- If the repository cloned has an "objects/info/alternates" file, and the
command line of clone specifies --reference, the ones specified on the
command line get overwritten by the copy from the original repository.
- An entry in a "objects/info/alternates" file can specify the object
stores it borrows objects from as a path relative to the "objects/"
directory. When cloning a repository with such an alternates file, if
the new repository is not sitting next to the original repository, such
relative paths needs to be adjusted so that they can be used in the new
repository.
This updates add_to_alternates_file() to take the path to the alternate
object store, including the "/objects" part at the end (earlier, it was
taking the path to $GIT_DIR and was adding "/objects" itself), as it is
technically possible to specify in objects/info/alternates file the path
of a directory whose name does not end with "/objects".

Git currently reports loose objects as 'corrupt' if they've been
deflated using a window size less than 32Kb, because the
experimental_loose_object() function doesn't recognise the header
byte as a zlib header. This patch makes the function tolerant of
all valid window sizes (15-bit to 8-bit) - but doesn't sacrifice
it's accuracy in distingushing the standard loose-object format
from the experimental (now abandoned) format.
On memory constrained systems zlib may use a much smaller window
size - working on Agit, I found that Android uses a 4KB window;
giving a header byte of 0x48, not 0x78. Consequently all loose
objects generated appear 'corrupt', which is why Agit is a read-only
Git client at this time - I don't want my client to generate Git
repos that other clients treat as broken :(
This patch makes Git tolerant of different deflate settings - it
might appear that it changes experimental_loose_object() to the point
where it could incorrectly identify the experimental format as the
standard one, but the two criteria (bitmask & checksum) can only
give a false result for an experimental object where both of the
following are true:
1) object size is exactly 8 bytes when uncompressed (bitmask)
2) [single-byte in-pack git type&size header] * 256
+ [1st byte of the following zlib header] % 31 = 0 (checksum)
As it happens, for all possible combinations of valid object type
(1-4) and window bits (0-7), the only time when the checksum will be
divisible by 31 is for 0x1838 - ie object type *1*, a Commit - which,
due the fields all Commit objects must contain, could never be as
small as 8 bytes in size.
Given this, the combination of the two criteria (bitmask & checksum)
always correctly determines the buffer format, and is more tolerant
than the previous version.
The alternative to this patch is simply removing support for the
experimental format, which I am also totally cool with.

The size of objects we read from the repository and data we try to put
into the repository are represented in "unsigned long", so that on larger
architectures we can handle objects that weigh more than 4GB.
But the interface defined in zlib.h to communicate with inflate/deflate
limits avail_in (how many bytes of input are we calling zlib with) and
avail_out (how many bytes of output from zlib are we ready to accept)
fields effectively to 4GB by defining their type to be uInt.
In many places in our code, we allocate a large buffer (e.g. mmap'ing a
large loose object file) and tell zlib its size by assigning the size to
avail_in field of the stream, but that will truncate the high octets of
the real size. The worst part of this story is that we often pass around
z_stream (the state object used by zlib) to keep track of the number of
used bytes in input/output buffer by inspecting these two fields, which
practically limits our callchain to the same 4GB limit.
Wrap z_stream in another structure git_zstream that can express avail_in
and avail_out in unsigned long. For now, just die() when the caller gives
a size that cannot be given to a single zlib call. In later patches in the
series, we would make git_inflate() and git_deflate() internally loop to
give callers an illusion that our "improved" version of zlib interface can
operate on a buffer larger than 4GB in one go.

Every time I look at the read-loose-object codepath, legacy_loose_object()
function makes my brain go through mental contortion. When we were playing
with the experimental loose object format, it may have made sense to call
the traditional format "legacy", in the hope that the experimental one
will some day replace it to become official, but it never happened.
This renames the function (and negates its return value) to detect if we
are looking at the experimental format, and move the code around in its
caller which used to do "if we are looing at legacy, do this special case,
otherwise the normal case is this". The codepath to read from the loose
objects in experimental format is the "unlikely" case.
Someday after Git 2.0, we should drop the support of this format.

This finally gets rid of the inefficient verify-pack implementation that
walks objects in the packfile in their object name order and replaces it
with a call to index-pack --verify. As a side effect, it also removes
packed_object_info_detail() API which is rather expensive.
As this changes the way errors are reported (verify-pack used to rely on
the usual runtime error detection routine unpack_entry() to diagnose the
CRC errors in an entry in the *.idx file; index-pack --verify checks the
whole *.idx file in one go), update a test that expected the string "CRC"

The way "object replacement" mechanism was tucked to the read_sha1_file()
interface was suboptimal in a couple of ways:
- Callers that want it to die with useful diagnosis upon seeing a corrupt
object does not have a way to say that they do not want any object
replacement.
- Callers who do not want it to die but want to handle the errors
themselves are told to arrange to call read_object(), but the function
does not use the replacement mechanism, and also it is a file scope
static function that not many callers can call to begin with.
This adds a read_sha1_file_extended() that takes a set of flags; the
callers of read_sha1_file() passes a flag READ_SHA1_FILE_REPLACE to ask
for object replacement mechanism to kick in.
Later, we could add another flag bit to tell the function to return an
error instead of dying and then remove the misguided "call read_object()
yourself".

When adding a new content to the repository, we have always slurped
the blob in its entirety in-core first, and computed the object name
and compressed it into a loose object file. Handling large binary
files (e.g. video and audio asset for games) has been problematic
because of this design.
At the middle level of "git add" callchain is an internal API
index_fd() that takes an open file descriptor to read from the
working tree file being added with its size. Teach it to call out to
fast-import when adding a large blob.
The write-out codepath in entry.c::write_entry() should be taught to
stream, instead of reading everything in core. This should not be so
hard to implement, especially if we limit ourselves only to loose
object files and non-delta representation in packfiles.

The git-new-workdir script in contrib/ makes a new work tree by sharing
many subdirectories of the .git directory with the original repository.
When rerere.enabled is set in the original repository, but the user has
not encountered any conflicts yet, the original repository may not yet
have .git/rr-cache directory.
When rerere wants to run in a new work tree created from such a young
original repository, it fails to mkdir(2) .git/rr-cache that is a symlink
to a yet-to-be-created directory.
There are three possible approaches to this:
- A naive solution is not to create a symlink in the git-new-workdir
script to a directory the original does not have (yet). This is not a
solution, as we tend to lazily create subdirectories of .git/, and
having rerere.enabled configuration set is a strong indication that the
user _wants_ to have this lazy creation to happen;
- We could always create .git/rr-cache upon repository creation. This is
tempting but will not help people with existing repositories.
- Detect this case by seeing that mkdir(2) failed with EEXIST, checking
that the path is a symlink, and try running mkdir(2) on the link
target.
This patch solves the issue by doing the third one.
Strictly speaking, this is incomplete. It does not attempt to handle
relative symbolic link that points into the original repository, but this
is good enough to help people who use contrib/workdir/git-new-workdir
script.

Rather than using 'errno == EMFILE' after a failed open() call
to indicate the process is out of file descriptors and an LRU
pack window should be closed, place a hard upper limit on the
number of open packs based on the actual rlimit of the process.
By using a hard upper limit that is below the rlimit of the current
process it is not necessary to check for EMFILE on every single
fd-allocating system call. Instead reserving 25 file descriptors
makes it safe to assume the system call won't fail due to being over
the filedescriptor limit. Here 25 is chosen as a WAG, but considers
3 for stdin/stdout/stderr, and at least a few for other Git code
to operate on temporary files. An additional 20 is reserved as it
is not known what the C library needs to perform other services on
Git's behalf, such as nsswitch or name resolution.
This fixes a case where running `git gc --auto` in a repository
with more than 1024 packs (but an rlimit of 1024 open fds) fails
due to the temporary output file not being able to allocate a
file descriptor. The output file is opened by pack-objects after
object enumeration and delta compression are done, both of which
have already opened all of the packs and fully populated the file
descriptor table.

This function takes a sha1 and produces a loose object
filename. It caches the location of the object directory so
that it can fill the sha1 information directly without
allocating a new buffer (and in its original incarnation,
without calling getenv(), though these days we cache that
with the code in environment.c).
This cached base directory can become stale, however, if in
a single process git changes the location of the object
directory (e.g., by running setup_work_tree, which will
chdir to the new worktree).
In most cases this isn't a problem, because we tend to set
up the git repository location and do any chdir()s before
actually looking up any objects, so the first lookup will
cache the correct location. In the case of reset --hard,
however, we do something like:
1. look up the commit object
2. notice we are doing --hard, run setup_work_tree
3. look up the tree object to reset
Step (3) fails because our cache object directory value is
bogus.
This patch simply removes the caching. We use a static
buffer instead of allocating one each time (the original
version treated the malloc'd buffer as a static, so there is
no change in calling semantics).

hash_object: correction for zero length file
The check whether size is zero was done after if size <= SMALL_FILE_SIZE,
as result, zero size case was never triggered. Instead zero length file
was treated as any other small file. This did not caused any problem, but
if we have a special case for size equal to zero, it is better to make it
work and avoid redundant malloc().

The easiest way to verify a pack index is to open it through the
standard parse_pack_index function, permitting the header check
to happen when the file is mapped. However, the dumb HTTP client
needs to verify a pack index before its moved into its proper file
name within the objects/pack directory, to prevent a corrupt index
from being made available. So permit the caller to specify the
exact path of the index file.
For now we're still using the final destination name within the
sole call site in http.c, but eventually we will start to parse
the temporary path instead.

By closing the pack index, a caller can later overwrite the index
with an updated index file, possibly after converting from v1 to
the v2 format. Because p->index_data is NULL after close, on the
next access the index will be opened again and the other members
will be updated with new data.

Until now, this has been part of the commit-tree builtin.
However, it is already used by other builtins (like commit,
merge, and notes), and it would be useful to access it from
library code.
The check_valid helper has to come along, too, but is given
a more library-ish name of "assert_sha1_type".
Otherwise, the code is unchanged. There are still a few
rough edges for a library function, like printing the utf8
warning to stderr, but we can address those if and when they
come up as inappropriate.

These should take const buffers as input data, but zlib's
next_in pointer is not const-correct. Let's fix it at the
zlib level, though, so the cast happens in one obvious
place. This should be safe, as a similar cast is used in
zlib's example code for a const array.

We don't want the data being deflated and stored into loose objects
to be different from what we expect. While the deflated data is
protected by a CRC which is good enough for safe data retrieval
operations, we still want to be doubly sure that the source data used
at object creation time is still what we expected once that data has
been deflated and its CRC32 computed.
The most plausible data corruption may occur if the source file is
modified while Git is deflating and writing it out in a loose object.
Or Git itself could have a bug causing memory corruption. Or even bad
RAM could cause trouble. So it is best to make sure everything is
coherent and checksum protected from beginning to end.
To do so we compute the SHA1 of the data being deflated _after_ the
deflate operation has consumed that data, and make sure it matches
with the expected SHA1. This way we can rely on the CRC32 checked by
the inflate operation to provide a good indication that the data is still
coherent with its SHA1 hash. One pathological case we ignore is when
the data is modified before (or during) deflate call, but changed back
before it is hashed.
There is some overhead of course. Using 'git add' on a set of large files:
Before:
real 0m25.210s

sys 0m1.408s

There is no real advantage to malloc the whole output buffer and
deflate the data in a single pass when writing loose objects. That is
like only 1% faster while using more memory, especially with large
files where memory usage is far more. It is best to deflate and write
the data out in small chunks reusing the same memory instead.

The loop in get_size_from_delta() feeds a deflated delta data from the
pack stream _until_ we get inflated result of 20 bytes[*] or we reach the
end of stream.
Side note. This magic number 20 does not have anything to do with the
size of the hash we use, but comes from 1a3b55c (reduce delta head
inflated size, 2006-10-18).
The loop reads like this:
do {
in = use_pack();
stream.next_in = in;
st = git_inflate(&stream, Z_FINISH);
curpos += stream.next_in - in;
} while ((st == Z_OK || st == Z_BUF_ERROR) &&
stream.total_out < sizeof(delta_head));
This git_inflate() can return:
- Z_STREAM_END, if use_pack() fed it enough input and the delta itself
was smaller than 20 bytes;
- Z_OK, when some progress has been made;
- Z_BUF_ERROR, if no progress is possible, because we either ran out of
input (due to corrupt pack), or we ran out of output before we saw the
end of the stream.
The fix b3118bd (sha1_file: Fix infinite loop when pack is corrupted,
2009-10-14) attempted was against a corruption that appears to be a valid
stream that produces a result larger than the output buffer, but we are
not even trying to read the stream to the end in this loop. If avail_out
becomes zero, total_out will be the same as sizeof(delta_head) so the loop
will terminate without the "fix". There is no fix from b3118bd needed for
this loop, in other words.
The loop in unpack_compressed_entry() is quite a different story. It
feeds a deflated stream (either delta or base) and allows the stream to
produce output up to what we expect but no more.
do {
in = use_pack();
stream.next_in = in;
st = git_inflate(&stream, Z_FINISH);
curpos += stream.next_in - in;
} while (st == Z_OK || st == Z_BUF_ERROR)
This _does_ risk falling into an endless interation, as we can exhaust
avail_out if the length we expect is smaller than what the stream wants to
produce (due to pack corruption). In such a case, avail_out will become
zero and inflate() will return Z_BUF_ERROR, while avail_in may (or may
not) be zero.
But this is not a right fix:
do {
in = use_pack();
stream.next_in = in;
st = git_inflate(&stream, Z_FINISH);
+ if (st == Z_BUF_ERROR && (stream.avail_in || !stream.avail_out)
+ break; /* wants more input??? */
curpos += stream.next_in - in;
} while (st == Z_OK || st == Z_BUF_ERROR)
as Z_BUF_ERROR from inflate() may be telling us that avail_in has also run
out before reading the end of stream marker. In such a case, both avail_in
and avail_out would be zero, and the loop should iterate to allow the end
of stream marker to be seen by inflate from the input stream.
The right fix for this loop is likely to be to increment the initial
avail_out by one (we allocate one extra byte to terminate it with NUL
anyway, so there is no risk to overrun the buffer), and break out if we
see that avail_out has become zero, in order to detect that the stream
wants to produce more than what we expect. After the loop, we have a
check that exactly tests this condition:
if ((st != Z_STREAM_END) || stream.total_out != size) {
free(buffer);
return NULL;
}
So here is a patch (without my previous botched attempts) to fix this
issue. The first hunk reverts the corresponding hunk from b3118bd, and
the second hunk is the same fix proposed earlier.

Some types of corruption to a pack may confuse the deflate stream
which stores an object. In Andy's reported case a 36 byte region
of the pack was overwritten, leading to what appeared to be a valid
deflate stream that was trying to produce a result larger than our
allocated output buffer could accept.
Z_BUF_ERROR is returned from inflate() if either the input buffer
needs more input bytes, or the output buffer has run out of space.
Previously we only considered the former case, as it meant we needed
to move the stream's input buffer to the next window in the pack.
We now abort the loop if inflate() returns Z_BUF_ERROR without
consuming the entire input buffer it was given, or has filled
the entire output buffer but has not yet returned Z_STREAM_END.
Either state is a clear indicator that this loop is not working
as expected, and should not continue.
This problem cannot occur with loose objects as we open the entire
loose object as a single buffer and treat Z_BUF_ERROR as an error.

Shifting 'unsigned char' or 'unsigned short' left can result in sign
extension errors, since the C integer promotion rules means that the
unsigned char/short will get implicitly promoted to a signed 'int' due to
the shift (or due to other operations).
This normally doesn't matter, but if you shift things up sufficiently, it
will now set the sign bit in 'int', and a subsequent cast to a bigger type
(eg 'long' or 'unsigned long') will now sign-extend the value despite the
original expression being unsigned.
One example of this would be something like
unsigned long size;
unsigned char c;
size += c << 24;
where despite all the variables being unsigned, 'c << 24' ends up being a
signed entity, and will get sign-extended when then doing the addition in
an 'unsigned long' type.
Since git uses 'unsigned char' pointers extensively, we actually have this
bug in a couple of places.
I may have missed some, but this is the result of looking at
git grep '[^0-9 ][ ]*<<[ ][a-z]' -- '*.c' '*.h'
git grep '<<[ ]*24'
which catches at least the common byte cases (shifting variables by a
variable amount, and shifting by 24 bits).
I also grepped for just 'unsigned char' variables in general, and
converted the ones that most obviously ended up getting implicitly cast
immediately anyway (eg hash_name(), encode_85()).
In addition to just avoiding 'unsigned char', this patch also tries to use
a common idiom for the delta header size thing. We had three different
variations on it: "& 0x7fUL" in one place (getting the sign extension
right), and "& ~0x80" and "& 0x7f" in two other places (not getting it
right). Apart from making them all just avoid using "unsigned char" at
all, I also unified them to then use a simple "& 0x7f".
I considered making a sparse extension which warns about doing implicit
casts from unsigned types to signed types, but it gets rather complex very
quickly, so this is just a hack.

It seems that accessing NTFS partitions with ufsd (at least on my EeePC)

It seems as if the calls are simply not serialized correctly, as single-stepping

As ufsd is "Commertial software" (sic!), I cannot fix it, and have to work

adjust_shared_perm() first obtains the mode bits from lstat(2), expecting
to find what the result of applying user's umask is, and then tweaks it
as necessary. When the file to be adjusted is created with mkstemp(3),
however, the mode thusly obtained does not have anything to do with user's
umask, and we would need to start from 0444 in such a case and there is no
point running lstat(2) for such a path.
This introduces a new API set_shared_perm() to bypass the lstat(2) and
instead force setting the mode bits to the desired value directly.

This fixes the behaviour of octal notation to how it is defined in the
documentation, while keeping the traditional "loosen only" semantics
intact for "group" and "everybody".
Three main points of this patch are:
- For an explicit octal notation, the internal shared_repository variable
is set to a negative value, so that we can tell "group" (which is to
"OR" in 0660) and 0660 (which is to "SET" to 0660);
- git-init did not set shared_repository variable early enough to affect
the initial creation of many files, notably copied templates and the
configuration. We set it very early when a command-line option
specifies a custom value.
- Many codepaths create files inside $GIT_DIR by various ways that all
involve mkstemp(), and then call move_temp_to_file() to rename it to
its final destination. We can add adjust_shared_perm() call here; for
the traditional "loosen-only", this would be a no-op for many codepaths
because the mode is already loose enough, but with the new behaviour it
makes a difference.
