Jeff King b70904306f strbuf_getwholeline: NUL-terminate getdelim buffer on error
Commit 0cc30e0 (strbuf_getwholeline: use getdelim if it is
available, 2015-04-16) tries to clean up after getdelim()
returns EOF, but gets one case wrong, which can lead in some
obscure cases to us reading uninitialized memory.

After getdelim() returns -1, we re-initialize the strbuf
only if sb->buf is NULL. The thinking was that either:

  1. We fed an existing allocated buffer to getdelim(), and
     at most it would have realloc'd, leaving our NUL in
     place.

  2. We didn't have a buffer to feed, so we gave getdelim()
     NULL; sb->buf will remain NULL, and we just want to
     restore the empty slopbuf.

But that second case isn't quite right. getdelim() may
allocate a buffer, write nothing into it, and then return
EOF. The resulting strbuf rightfully has sb->len set to "0",
but is missing the NUL terminator in the first byte.

Most call-sites are fine with this. They see the EOF and
don't bother looking at the strbuf. Or they notice that
sb->len is empty, and don't look at the contents. But
there's at least one case that does neither, and relies on
parsing the resulting (possibly zero-length) string:
fast-import. You can see this in action with the new test
(though we probably only notice failure there when run with
--valgrind or ASAN).

We can fix this by unconditionally resetting the strbuf when
we have a buffer after getdelim(). That fixes case 2 above.
Case 1 is probably already fine in practice, but it does not
hurt for us to re-assert our invariants (especially because
we are relying on whatever getdelim() happens to do, which
may vary from platform to platform). Our fix covers that
case, too.

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

	Git - the stupid content tracker

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

"git" can mean anything, depending on your mood.

 - random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not
   actually used by any common UNIX command.  The fact that it is a
   mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant.
 - stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the
   dictionary of slang.
 - "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually
   works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
 - "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks

Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an
unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations
and full access to internals.

Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public
License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses,
compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus
Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.

Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.

See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see
Documentation/giteveryday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and
Documentation/git-commandname.txt for documentation of each command.
If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be
read with "man gittutorial" or "git help tutorial", and the
documentation of each command with "man git-commandname" or "git help
commandname".

CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt
("man gitcvs-migration" or "git help cvs-migration" if git is
installed).

Many Git online resources are accessible from http://git-scm.com/
including full documentation and Git related tools.

The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git
mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature
requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read
Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission).
To subscribe to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in
the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are
available at http://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/,
http://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.

The maintainer frequently sends the "What's cooking" reports that
list the current status of various development topics to the mailing
list.  The discussion following them give a good reference for
project status, development direction and remaining tasks.
