3e8b7d3c77 has_sha1_file: don't bother if we are not in a repository
Most callers to this function already require that they are in a
git repository, but there is an exception: "git apply" uses
has_sha1_file to avoid work if the result of applying a binary
patch is already present in the repository. When run outside any
repository, this produces an error:

882add136f difftool: fix use-after-free
The left and right base directories were pointed to the buf field of
two strbufs, which were subject to change.

A contrived test case shows the problem where a file with a long enough
name to force the strbuf to grow is up-to-date (hence the code path is
used where the work tree's version of the file is reused), and then a
file that is not up-to-date needs to be written (hence the code path is
used where checkout_entry() uses the previously recorded base_dir that
is invalid by now).

Let's just copy the base_dir strings for use with checkout_entry(),
never touch them until the end, and release them then. This is an easily
verifiable fix (as opposed to the next-obvious alternative: to re-set
base_dir after every loop iteration).

This fixes https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/1124

17b254cda6 diff: submodule inline diff to initialize env array.
David reported:
> When I try to run `git diff --submodule=diff` in a submodule which has
> it's own submodules that have changes I get the error: fatal: bad
> object.

This happens, because we do not properly initialize the environment
in which the diff is run in the submodule. That means we inherit the
environment from the main process, which sets environment variables.
(Apparently we do set environment variables which we do not set
when not in a submodules, i.e. the .git directory is linked)

This commit, just like fd47ae6a5b (diff: teach diff to display
submodule difference with an inline diff, 2016-08-31) introduces bad
test code (i.e. hard coded hash values), which will be cleanup up in
a later patch.

51054177b3 index-pack: detect local corruption in collision check
When we notice that we have a local copy of an incoming
object, we compare the two objects to make sure we haven't
found a collision. Before we get to the actual object
bytes, though, we compare the type and size from
sha1_object_info().

If our local object is corrupted, then the type will be
OBJ_BAD, which obviously will not match the incoming type,
and we'll report "SHA1 COLLISION FOUND" (with capital
letters and everything). This is confusing, as the problem
is not a collision but rather local corruption. We should
report that instead (just like we do if reading the rest of
the object content fails a few lines later).

Note that we _could_ just ignore the error and mark it as a
non-collision. That would let you "git fetch" to replace a
corrupted object. But it's not a very reliable method for
repairing a repository. The earlier want/have negotiation
tries to get the other side to omit objects we already have,
and it would not realize that we are "missing" this
corrupted object. So we're better off complaining loudly
when we see corruption, and letting the user take more
drastic measures to repair (like making a full clone
elsewhere and copying the pack into place).

Note that the test sets transfer.unpackLimit in the
receiving repository so that we use index-pack (which is
what does the collision check). Normally for such a small
push we'd use unpack-objects, which would simply try to
write the loose object, and discard the new one when we see
that there's already an old one.

93cff9a978 sha1_loose_object_info: return error for corrupted objects
When sha1_loose_object_info() finds that a loose object file
cannot be stat(2)ed or mmap(2)ed, it returns -1 to signal an
error to the caller.  However, if it found that the loose
object file is corrupt and the object data cannot be used
from it, it stuffs OBJ_BAD into "type" field of the
object_info, but returns zero (i.e., success), which can
confuse callers.

This is due to 052fe5eac (sha1_loose_object_info: make type
lookup optional, 2013-07-12), which switched the return to a
strict success/error, rather than returning the type (but
botched the return).

Callers of regular sha1_object_info() don't notice the
difference, as that function returns the type (which is
OBJ_BAD in this case). However, direct callers of
sha1_object_info_extended() see the function return success,
but without setting any meaningful values in the object_info
struct, leading them to access potentially uninitialized
memory.

The easiest way to see the bug is via "cat-file -s", which
will happily ignore the corruption and report whatever
value happened to be in the "size" variable.

2a1bd45b2e name-hash: fix buffer overrun
Add check for the end of the entries for the thread partition.
Add test for lazy init name hash with specific directory structure

The lazy init hash name was causing a buffer overflow when the last
entry in the index was multiple folder deep with parent folders that
did not have any files in them.

This adds a test for the boundary condition of the thread partitions
with the folder structure that was triggering the buffer overflow.

The fix was to check if it is the last entry for the thread partition
in the handle_range_dir and not try to use the next entry in the cache.

07af889136 gc: replace local buffer with git_path
We probe the "17/" loose object directory for auto-gc, and
use a local buffer to format the path. We can just use
git_path() for this. It handles paths of any length
(reducing our error handling). And because we feed the
result straight to a system call, we can just use the static
variant.

Note that git_path also knows the string "objects/" is
special, and will replace it with git_object_directory()
when necessary.

Another alternative would be to use sha1_file_name() for the
pretend object "170000...", but that ends up being more
hassle for no gain, as we have to truncate the final path
component.

These could be candidates for turning into heap buffers, but

doing:

  - formatting single numbers is simple enough that we can
    see the result should fit

  - the size of a sha1 is likewise well-known, and I didn't
    want to cause unnecessary conflicts with the ongoing
    process to convert these constants to GIT_MAX_HEXSZ

  - the interface for curl_errorstr is dictated by curl

5b1ef2cef4 replace unchecked snprintf calls with heap buffers
We'd prefer to avoid unchecked snprintf calls because
truncation can lead to unexpected results.

These are all cases where truncation shouldn't ever happen,
because the input to snprintf is fixed in size. That makes
them candidates for xsnprintf(), but it's simpler still to
just use the heap, and then nobody has to wonder if "100" is
big enough.

We'll use xstrfmt() where possible, and a strbuf when we need
the resulting size or to reuse the same buffer in a loop.

446d5d9112 receive-pack: print --pack-header directly into argv array
After receive-pack reads the pack header from the client, it
feeds the already-read part to index-pack and unpack-objects
via their --pack-header command-line options.  To do so, we
format it into a fixed buffer, then duplicate it into the
child's argv_array.

Our buffer is long enough to handle any possible input, so
this isn't wrong. But it's more complicated than it needs to
be; we can just argv_array_pushf() the final value and avoid
the intermediate copy. This drops the magic number and is
more efficient, too.

Note that we need to push to the argv_array in order, which
means we can't do the push until we are in the "unpack-objects
versus index-pack" conditional.  Rather than duplicate the
slightly complicated format specifier, I pushed it into a
helper function.

903fc7da44 name-rev: replace static buffer with strbuf
When name-rev needs to format an actual name, we do so into
a fixed-size buffer. That includes the actual ref tip, as
well as any traversal information. Since refs can exceed
1024 bytes, this means you can get a bogus result. E.g.,
doing:

   git tag $(perl -e 'print join("/", 1..1024)')
   git describe --contains HEAD^

results in ".../282/283", when it should be
".../1023/1024~1".

We can solve this by using a heap buffer. We'll use a
strbuf, which lets us write into the same buffer from our
loop without having to reallocate.

In create_branch() we write the reflog msg into a buffer in
the main function, but then use it only inside a
conditional. If you carefully follow the logic, you can
confirm that we never use the buffer uninitialized nor write
when it would not be used. But we can make this a lot more
obvious by simply moving the write step inside the
conditional.

6cd4a8982d avoid using mksnpath for refs
Like the previous commit, we'd like to avoid the assumption
that refs fit into PATH_MAX-sized buffers. These callsites
have an extra twist, though: they write the refnames using
mksnpath. This does two things beyond a regular snprintf:

  1. It quietly writes "/bad-path/" when truncation occurs.
     This saves the caller having to check the error code,
     but if you aren't actually feeding the result to a
     system call (and we aren't here), it's questionable.

  2. It calls cleanup_path(), which removes leading
     instances of "./".  That's questionable when dealing
     with refnames, as we could silently canonicalize a
     syntactically bogus refname into a valid one.

Let's convert each case to use a strbuf. This is preferable
to xstrfmt() because we can reuse the same buffer as we
loop.

7f897b6f17 avoid using fixed PATH_MAX buffers for refs
Many functions which handle refs use a PATH_MAX-sized buffer
to do so. This is mostly reasonable as we have to write
loose refs into the filesystem, and at least on Linux the 4K
PATH_MAX is big enough that nobody would care. But:

  1. The static PATH_MAX is not always the filesystem limit.

  2. On other platforms, PATH_MAX may be much smaller.

  3. As we move to alternate ref storage, we won't be bound
     by filesystem limits.

Let's convert these to heap buffers so we don't have to
worry about truncation or size limits.

We may want to eventually constrain ref lengths for sanity
and to prevent malicious names, but we should do so
consistently across all platforms, and in a central place
(like the ref code).

1412f762e0 fetch: use heap buffer to format reflog
Part of the reflog content comes from the environment, which
can be much larger than our fixed buffer. Let's use a heap
buffer so we avoid truncating it.

b0ceab98d7 tag: use strbuf to format tag header
We format the tag header into a fixed 1024-byte buffer. But
since the tag-name and tagger ident can be arbitrarily
large, we may unceremoniously die with "tag header too big".
Let's just use a strbuf instead.

Note that it looks at first glance like we can just format
this directly into the "buf" strbuf where it will ultimately
go. But that buffer may already contain the tag message, and
we have no easy way to prepend formatted data to a strbuf
(we can only splice in an already-generated buffer). This
isn't a performance-critical path, so going through an extra
buffer isn't a big deal.

977db6b4bf diff: avoid fixed-size buffer for patch-ids
To generate a patch id, we format the diff header into a
fixed-size buffer, and then feed the result to our sha1
computation. The fixed buffer has size '4*PATH_MAX + 20',
which in theory accommodates the four filenames plus some
extra data. Except:

  1. The filenames may not be constrained to PATH_MAX. The
     static value may not be a real limit on the current
     filesystem. Moreover, we may compute patch-ids for
     names stored only in git, without touching the current
     filesystem at all.

  2. The 20 bytes is not nearly enough to cover the
     extra content we put in the buffer.

As a result, the data we feed to the sha1 computation may be
truncated, and it's possible that a commit with a very long
filename could erroneously collide in the patch-id space
with another commit. For instance, if one commit modified
"really-long-filename/foo" and another modified "bar" in the
same directory.

In practice this is unlikely. Because the filenames are
repeated, and because there's a single cutoff at the end of
the buffer, the offending filename would have to be on the
order of four times larger than PATH_MAX.

We could fix this by moving to a strbuf. However, we can
observe that the purpose of formatting this in the first
place is to feed it to git_SHA1_Update(). So instead, let's
just feed each part of the formatted string directly. This
actually ends up more readable, and we can even factor out
some duplicated bits from the various conditional branches.

Technically this may change the output of patch-id for very
long filenames, but it's not worth making an exception for
this in the --stable output. It was a bug, and one that only
affected an unlikely set of paths.  And anyway, the exact
value would have varied from platform to platform depending
on the value of PATH_MAX, so there is no "stable" value.
