Patrick Steinhardt dfa6b32b5e attr: ignore attribute lines exceeding 2048 bytes
There are two different code paths to read gitattributes: once via a
file, and once via the index. These two paths used to behave differently
because when reading attributes from a file, we used fgets(3P) with a
buffer size of 2kB. Consequentially, we silently truncate line lengths
when lines are longer than that and will then parse the remainder of the
line as a new pattern. It goes without saying that this is entirely
unexpected, but it's even worse that the behaviour depends on how the
gitattributes are parsed.

While this is simply wrong, the silent truncation saves us with the
recently discovered vulnerabilities that can cause out-of-bound writes
or reads with unreasonably long lines due to integer overflows. As the
common path is to read gitattributes via the worktree file instead of
via the index, we can assume that any gitattributes file that had lines
longer than that is already broken anyway. So instead of lifting the
limit here, we can double down on it to fix the vulnerabilities.

Introduce an explicit line length limit of 2kB that is shared across all
paths that read attributes and ignore any line that hits this limit
while printing a warning.

Git - fast, scalable, distributed revision control system

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.

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

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).

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 https://lore.kernel.org/git/, http://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.

Issues which are security relevant should be disclosed privately to the Git Security mailing list git-security@googlegroups.com.

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.

The name "git" was given by Linus Torvalds when he wrote the very first version. He described the tool as "the stupid content tracker" and the name as (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
