7e00dc58d1 gitweb: Fix bug in evaluate_path_info
There was bug in parsing "project/:/file" and "project/:/" path_info
URLs, with implicit HEAD as 'hash_base'.

For such URLs the refname is empty, and before this fix regexp for
parsing path_info fragment assumed that it is always non-empty.

Refname cannot contain ':', as per 'git check-ref-format'.

01f6fd4b4e Documentation: No argument of ALLOC_GROW should have side-effects
The explanatory comment before the definition of ALLOC_GROW carefully
lists arguments that will be used more than once and thus cannot have
side-effects; a lazy reader might conclude that the arguments not
listed are used only once and side effects safe.

Correct it to list all three arguments, avoiding this confusion.

b90d9b8895 work around buggy S_ISxxx(m) implementations
There are buggy implementations of S_ISxxx(m) macros on some platforms
(e.g. NetBSD).  The issue is that NetBSD doesn't take care to wrap its
macro arguments in parentheses, so on Linux and sane systems we have
S_ISREG(m) defined as something like:

    (((m) & S_IFMT) == S_IFREG)

But on NetBSD:

    ((m & _S_IFMT) == _S_IFREG)

Since a caller in builtin/diff.c called our macro as `S_IFREG | 0644'
this bug introduced a logic error on NetBSD, since the precedence of
bit-wise & is higher than | in C.

349362cc20 xdiff: cast arguments for ctype functions to unsigned char
The ctype functions isspace(), isalnum(), et al take an integer
argument representing an unsigned character, or -1 for EOF.  On
platforms with a signed char, it is unsafe to pass a char to them
without casting it to unsigned char first.

Most of git is already shielded against this by the ctype
implementation in git-compat-util.h, but xdiff, which uses libc
ctype.h, ought to be fixed.

9173912be3 init: plug tiny one-time memory leak
The buffer used to construct paths like ".git/objects/info" and
".git/objects/pack" is allocated on the heap and never freed.

So free it.  While at it, factor out the relevant code into its own
function and rename the sha1_dir variable to object_directory (to
match the change in everyday usage after the renaming of
SHA1_FILE_DIRECTORY in v0.99~603^2~7, 2005).

3c3bb51c3b send-email: Don't leak To: headers between patches
If the first patch in a series has a To: header in the file and the
second patch in the series doesn't the address from the first patch will
be part of the To: addresses in the second patch. Fix this by treating the
to list like the cc list. Have an initial to list come from the command
line, user input and config options. Then build up a to list from each
patch and concatenate the two together before sending the patch. Finally,
reset the list after sending each patch so the To: headers from a patch
don't get used for the next one.

06f3549d71 setup: make sure git dir path is in a permanent buffer
If setup_git_env() is run before the usual repository discovery
sequence and .git is a file with the text

	gitdir: <path>

(with <path> any string) then the in-core git_dir variable is set to
the result of converting <path> to an absolute path using
make_absolute_path().

Unfortunately make_absolute_path() returns its result in a static
buffer that is overwritten by later calls.  Such a call could cause
later accesses to git_dir (from git_pathdup(), for example) to read
the wrong path, leaving git very confused.

It is not obvious whether any existing code in git will trigger the
problem, but in any case, it is worth a few dozen bytes to copy the
return value from make_absolute_path() for some added peace of mind.

5debf9a5ac Add MinGW-specific execv() override.
As of 2dbc887e, shell.c employs execv(), so provide a MinGW-specific
mingw_execv() override, complementing existing mingw_execvp() and
cousins.

As a bonus, this also resolves a compilation warning due to an
execv() prototype mismatch between Linux and MinGW. Linux expects
the second argument to be (char *const *), whereas MinGW expects
(const char *const *).

b248e95096 Fix 'clone' failure at DOS root directory.
Cloning via relative path fails for a project residing immediately under
the root directory of a DOS drive.  For instance, for project c:/foo,
issuing "cd c:/" followed by "git clone foo bar" fails with error
"Unable to find remote helper for 'c'".  The problem is caused by
make_nonrelative_path() incorrectly returning c://foo rather than
c:/foo for input "foo".  The bogus path c://foo is misinterpreted by
transport_get() as a URL with unrecognized protocol "c", hence the
missing remote helper error.  Fix make_nonrelative_path() to return
c:/foo rather than c://foo (and /foo rather than //foo on Unix).

36e035f5dc Side-step MSYS-specific path "corruption" leading to t5560 failure.
Upon program invocation, MSYS converts environment variables containing
path-like values from Unix-style to DOS-style under the assumption that
the program being invoked understands only DOS-style pathnames.  For
instance, the Unix-style path /msysgit is translated to c:/msysgit.  For
test t5560, the path being requested from git-http-backend is specified
via environment variable PATH_INFO as a URL path of the form
/repo.git/foobar, which git-http-backend combines with GIT_PROJECT_ROOT
to determine the actual physical path within the repository. This is a
case where MSYS's conversion of the path-like value of PATH_INFO causes
harm, for two reasons.  First, the resulting converted path, when joined
with GIT_PROJECT_ROOT is bogus (for instance,
"C:/msysgit/git/t/trash-zzz/C:/msysgit/repo.git/HEAD").  Second, the
converted PATH_INFO path is rejected by git-http-backend as an 'alias'
due to validation failure on the part of daemon_avoid_alias().
Unfortunately, the standard work-around of doubling the leading slash
(i.e. //repo.git/foobar) to suppress MSYS path conversion works only for
command-line arguments, but not for environment variables.
Consequently, side step the problem by instead passing git-http-backend
an already-constructed full path rather than components GIT_PROJECT_ROOT
and PATH_INFO.

ca02ad3447 Side-step sed line-ending "corruption" leading to t6038 failure.
By default, MSYS sed throws away CR from CRLF line-endings.  Tests
t6038.5 and t6038.6 employ sed to normalize conflict output of git-merge
for validation purposes.  These tests expect CRLF line-endings to be
present in the normalized output of git-merge, and thus fail when sed
undesirably removes CR.  Fix by employing sed's -b/--binary switch to
suppress its default behavior of dropping CR characters.

3ba9ba8f34 Skip t1300.70 and 71 on msysGit.
These two tests fail on msysGit because /dev/null is an alias for nul on
Windows and when reading the value back from git config the alias does
not match the real filename. Also the HOME environment variable has a
unix-style path but git returns a native equivalent path for '~'.  As
these are platform-dependent equivalent results it seems simplest to
skip the test entirely.

442dada22d MinGW: Report errors when failing to launch the html browser.
The mingw function to launch the system html browser is silent if the
target file does not exist leaving the user confused. Make it display
something.

9b9784cab9 MinGW: fix stat() and lstat() implementations for handling symlinks
In msysGit the stat() function has been implemented using mingw_lstat
which sets the st_mode member to S_IFLNK when a symbolic links is found.
This causes the is_executable function to return when git attempts to
build a list of available commands in the help code and we end up missing
most git commands. (msysGit issue #445)

This patch modifies the implementation so that lstat() will return the link
flag but if we are called as stat() we read the size of the target and set
the mode to that of a regular file.

Includes squashed fix st_mode for symlink dirs
