The undefined behavior sanitizer complains about unaligned
loads, even if they're OK for a particular platform in
practice. It's possible that they _are_ a problem, of
course, but since it's a known tradeoff the UBSan errors are

56b5db30d0 Makefile: add helper for compiling with -fsanitize
You can already build and test with ASan by doing:

  make CFLAGS=-fsanitize=address test

but there are a few slight annoyances:

  1. It's a little long to type.

  2. It override your CFLAGS completely. You'd probably
     still want -O2, for instance.

  3. It's a good idea to also turn off "recovery", which
     lets the program keep running after a problem is
     detected (with the intention of finding as many bugs as
     possible in a given run). Since Git's test suite should
     generally run without triggering any problems, it's
     better to abort immediately and fail the test when we
     do find an issue.

With this patch, all of that happens automatically when you
run:

  make SANITIZE=address test

bf1ce904b7 test-lib: turn on ASan abort_on_error by default
By default, ASan will exit with code 1 when it sees an
error. This means we'll notice a problem when we expected
git to succeed, but not in a test_must_fail block.

Let's ask it to actually raise SIGABRT instead. That will
give us a signal death that test_must_fail will notice. As a
bonus, it may also leave a coredump, which can be handy for
digging into a failure.

d0cc5796f3 test-lib: set ASAN_OPTIONS variable before we run git
We turn off ASan's leak detection by default in the test
suite because it's too noisy. But we don't do so until
part-way through test-lib. This is before we've run any
tests, but after we do our initial "./git" to see if the
binary has even been built.

When built with clang, this seems to work fine. However,
using "gcc -fsanitize=address", the leak checker seems to
complain more aggressively:

  $ ./git
  ...
  ==5352==ERROR: LeakSanitizer: detected memory leaks
  Direct leak of 2 byte(s) in 1 object(s) allocated from:
      #0 0x7f120e7afcf8 in malloc (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libasan.so.3+0xc1cf8)
      #1 0x559fc2a3ce41 in do_xmalloc /home/peff/compile/git/wrapper.c:60
      #2 0x559fc2a3cf1a in do_xmallocz /home/peff/compile/git/wrapper.c:100

      #7 0x7f120dabd2b0 in __libc_start_main (/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6+0x202b0)

This is a leak in the sense that we never free it, but it's
in a global that is meant to last the whole program. So it's
not really interesting or in need of fixing. And at any
rate, mentioning leaks outside of the test_expect blocks is
certainly unwelcome, as it pollutes stderr.

Let's bump the setting of ASAN_OPTIONS higher in test-lib.sh
to catch our initial "can we even run git?" test.  While
we're at it, we can add a comment to make it a bit less
inscrutable.

de239446b6 reflog-walk: apply --since/--until to reflog dates
When doing a reflog walk, we use the commit's date to
do any date limiting. In earlier versions of Git, this could
lead to nonsense results, since a skipped commit would
truncate the traversal. So a sequence like:

  git commit ...
  git checkout week-old-branch
  git checkout -
  git log -g --since=1.day.ago

would stop at the week-old-branch, even though the "git
commit" entry further back is still interesting.

As of the prior commit, which uses a parent-less traversal
of the reflog, you get the whole reflog minus any commits
whose dates do not match the specified options. This is
arguably useful, as you could scan the reflogs for commits
that originated in a certain range.

But more likely a user doing a reflog walk wants to limit
based on the reflog entries themselves. You can simulate
--until with:

  git log -g @{1.day.ago}

but there's no way to ask Git to traverse only back to a
certain date. E.g.:

  # show me reflog entries from the past day
  git log -g --since=1.day.ago

This patch teaches the revision machinery to prefer the
reflog entry dates to the commit dates when doing a reflog
walk. Technically this is a change in behavior that affects
plumbing, but the previous behavior was so buggy that it's
unlikely anyone was relying on it.

d08565bf2d reflog-walk: stop using fake parents
The reflog-walk system works by putting a ref's tip into the
pending queue, and then "traversing" the reflog by
pretending that the parent of each commit is the previous
reflog entry.

This causes a number of user-visible oddities, as documented
in t1414 (and the commit message which introduced it). We
can fix all of them in one go by replacing the fake-reflog
system with a much simpler one: just keeping a list of
reflogs to show, and walking through them entry by entry.

The implementation is fairly straight-forward, but there are
a few items to note:

  1. We obviously must skip calling add_parents_to_list()
     when we are traversing reflogs, since we do not want to
     walk the original parents at all.  As a result, we must call
     try_to_simplify_commit() ourselves.

     There are other parts of add_parents_to_list() we skip,
     as well, but none of them should matter for a reflog
     traversal:

       -  We do not allow UNINTERESTING commits, nor
          symmetric ranges (and we bail when these are used
          with "-g").

       - Using --source makes no sense, since we aren't
         traversing. The reflog selector shows the same
         information with more detail.

       - Using --first-parent is still sensible, since you
         may want to see the first-parent diff for each
         entry. But since we're not traversing, we don't
         need to cull the parent list here.

  2. Since we now just walk the reflog entries themselves,
     rather than starting with the ref tip, we now look at
     the "new" field of each entry rather than the "old"
     (i.e., we are showing entries, not faking parents).
     This removes all of the tricky logic around skipping
     past root commits.

     But note that we have no way to show an entry with the
     null sha1 in its "new" field (because such a commit
     obviously does not exist). Normally this would not
     happen, since we delete reflogs along with refs, but
     there is one special case. When we rename the currently
     checked out branch, we write two reflog entries into
     the HEAD log: one where the commit goes away, and
     another where it comes back.

     Prior to this commit, we show both entries with
     identical reflog messages. After this commit, we show
     only the "comes back" entry. See the update in t3200
     which demonstrates this.

     Arguably either is fine, as the whole double-entry
     thing is a bit hacky in the first place. And until a
     recent fix, we truncated the traversal in such a case
     anyway, which was _definitely_ wrong.

  3. We show individual reflogs in order, but choose which
     reflog to show at each stage based on which has the
     most recent timestamp.  This interleaves the output
     from multiple reflogs based on date order, which is
     probably what you'd want with limiting like "-n 30".

     Note that the implementation aims for simplicity. It
     does a linear walk over the reflog queue for each
     commit it pulls, which may perform badly if you
     interleave an enormous number of reflogs. That seems
     like an unlikely use case; if we did want to handle it,
     we could probably keep a priority queue of reflogs,
     ordered by the timestamp of their current tip entry.

7f97de5ee1 rev-list: check reflog_info before showing usage
When git-rev-list sees no pending commits, it shows a usage
message. This works even when reflog-walking is requested,
because the reflog-walk code currently puts the reflog tips
into the pending queue.

In preparation for refactoring the reflog-walk code, let's
explicitly check whether we have any reflogs to walk. For
now this is a noop, but the existing reflog tests will make
sure that it kicks in after the refactoring. Likewise, we'll
add a test that "rev-list -g" without specifying any reflogs
continues to fail (so that we know our check does not kick
in too aggressively).

Note that the implementation needs to go into its own
sub-function, as the walk code does not expose its innards
outside of reflog-walk.c.

7c2f08aa7a get_revision_1(): replace do-while with an early return
The get_revision_1() function tries to avoid entering its
main loop at all when there are no commits to look at. But
it's perfectly safe to call pop_commit() on an empty list
(in which case it will return NULL). Switching to an early
return from the loop lets us skip repeating the loop
condition before we enter the do-while. That will get more
important when we start pulling reflog-walk commits from a
source besides the revs->commits queue, as that condition
will get much more complicated.

f35650dff6 log: do not free parents when walking reflog
When we're doing a reflog walk (instead of walking the
actual parent pointers), we may see commits multiple times.
For this reason, we hold on to the commit buffer for each
commit rather than freeing it after we've showed the commit.

We should do the same for the parent list. Right now this is
just a minor optimization. But once we refactor how reflog
walks are performed, keeping the parents will avoid
confusing us the second time we see the commit.

0fae1e072a progress: show overall rate in last update
The values in struct throughput are only updated every 0.5 seconds.  If
we're all done before that time span then the final update will show a
rate of 0 bytes/s, which is misleading if some bytes had been handled.
Remember the start time and show the total throughput instead.

And avoid division by zero by enforcing a minimum time span value of 1
(unit: 1/1024th of a second).  That makes the resulting rate an
underestimation, but it's closer to the actual value than the currently
shown 0 bytes/s.

We don't know the length of the C string "another".  It could be
shorter than "name", which we compare it to using memchr(3).  Call
strcmp(3) instead to avoid running over the end of the former, and
get rid of a strlen(3) call as a bonus.

7ca260abfe branch: set remote color in ref-filter branch immediately
We set the current and local branch colors at the top of the
build_format() function. Let's do the same for the remote
color. This saves a little bit of repetition, but more
importantly it puts all of the color-setting in the same
place. That makes it easier to see that we are coloring all
possibilities.

34d820ee33 branch: use BRANCH_COLOR_LOCAL in ref-filter format
Since 949af0684 (branch: use ref-filter printing APIs,
2017-01-10), git-branch's output is generated by passing a
custom format to the ref-filter code. This format forgot to
pass BRANCH_COLOR_LOCAL, meaning that local branches
(besides the current one) were never colored at all.

We can add it in the %(if) block where we decide whether the
branch is "current" or merely "local".  Note that this means
the current/local coloring is either/or. You can't set:

  [color "branch"]
  local = blue
  current = bold

and expect the current branch to be "bold blue". This
matches the pre-949af0684 behavior.

a5b3663898 branch: only perform HEAD check for local branches
When assembling the ref-filter format to show "git branch"
output, we put the "%(if)%(HEAD)" conditional at the start
of the overall format. But there's no point in checking
whether a remote branch matches HEAD, as it never will.
The check should go inside the local conditional; we
assemble that format inside the "local" strbuf.

By itself, this is just a minor optimization. But in a
future patch, we'll need this refactoring to fix
local-branch coloring.

82fd0f4a4b revision: disallow reflog walking with revs->limited
The reflog-walk code doesn't work with limit_list().  That
function traverses down the real history graph, not the fake
reflog history that get_revision() returns. So it's not
going to actually examine all of the commits we're going to
show, because we'd add them to the pending list only during
the actual traversal.

In practice this limitation doesn't really matter, because
the options that require list-limiting generally need
UNINTERESTING endpoints or symmetric ranges, which already
are forbidden for reflog walks. Still, there are likely some
corner cases that would behave oddly. We're better off to
warn the user that we can't fulfill their request than to
generate potentially wrong output.

This will also make it easier to refactor the reflog-walking
code, because it eliminates a whole area of corner cases
we'd have to consider (that already don't work anyway).

7cf686b9a8 t1414: document some reflog-walk oddities
Since its inception, the general strategy of the reflog-walk
code has been to start with the tip commit for the ref, and
as we traverse replace each commit's parent pointers with
fake parents pointing to the previous reflog entry.

This lets us traverse the reflog as if it were a real
history, but it has some user-visible oddities. Namely:

  1. The fake parents are used for commit selection and
     display. So for example, "--merges" or "--no-merges"
     are not useful, because the history appears as a linear
     string of commits. Likewise, pathspec limiting is based
     on the diff between adjacent entries, not the changes
     actually introduced by a commit.

     These are often the same (e.g., because the entry was
     just running "git commit" and the adjacent entry _is_
     the true parent), but it may not be in several common
     cases. For instance, using "git reset" to jump around
     history, or "git checkout" to move HEAD.

  2. We reverse-map each commit back to its reflog. So when
     it comes time to show commit X, we say "a-ha, we added
     X because it was at the tip of the 'foo' reflog, so
     let's show the foo reflog". But this leads to nonsense
     results when you ask to traverse multiple reflogs: if
     two reflogs have the same tip commit, we only map back
     to one of them.  Instead, we should show both.

  3. If the tip of the reflog and the ref tip disagree on
     the current value, we show the ref tip but give no
     indication of the value in the reflog.  This situation
     isn't supposed to happen (since any ref update should
     touch the reflog). But if it does, given that the
     requested operation is to show the reflog, it makes
     sense to prefer that.

This commit adds a new script with several expect_failure
tests to demonstrate the problems.  This could be part of
the existing t1411, but it's a bit easier to start from a
fresh state, where we know exactly what will be in the log.

Since the new multiple-reflog tests are checking the actual
output, we can drop the "make sure we don't segfault" tests
from t1411, which are a strict subset of what we're doing
here.

e30d463d45 reflog-walk: include all fields when freeing complete_reflogs
When we encounter an error adding reflogs for a walk, we try
to free any logs we have read. But we didn't free all
fields, meaning that we could in theory leak all of the
"items" array (which would consitute the bulk of the
allocated memory).

This patch adds a helper which frees all of the entries and
uses it as appropriate.

As it turns out, the leak seems impossible to trigger with
the current code. Of the three error paths that free the
complete_reflogs struct, two only kick in when the items
array is empty, and the third was removed entirely in the
previous commit.

So this patch should be a noop in terms of behavior, but it
fixes a potential maintenance headache should anybody add a
new error path and copy the partial-free code. Which is
what happened in 5026b47175 (add_reflog_for_walk: avoid
memory leak, 2017-05-04), though its leaky call was the
third one that was recently removed.
