2021-09-10ssh signing: verify signatures using ssh-keygenFabian Stelzer3-2/+252
To verify a ssh signature we first call ssh-keygen -Y find-principal to look up the signing principal by their public key from the allowedSignersFile. If the key is found then we do a verify. Otherwise we only validate the signature but can not verify the signers identity. Verification uses the gpg.ssh.allowedSignersFile (see ssh-keygen(1) "ALLOWED SIGNERS") which contains valid public keys and a principal (usually user@domain). Depending on the environment this file can be managed by the individual developer or for example generated by the central repository server from known ssh keys with push access. This file is usually stored outside the repository, but if the repository only allows signed commits/pushes, the user might choose to store it in the repository. To revoke a key put the public key without the principal prefix into gpg.ssh.revocationKeyring or generate a KRL (see ssh-keygen(1) "KEY REVOCATION LISTS"). The same considerations about who to trust for verification as with the allowedSignersFile apply. Using SSH CA Keys with these files is also possible. Add "cert-authority" as key option between the principal and the key to mark it as a CA and all keys signed by it as valid for this CA. See "CERTIFICATES" in ssh-keygen(1).

2021-09-10ssh signing: add ssh key format and signing codeFabian Stelzer3-10/+137
Implements the actual sign_buffer_ssh operation and move some shared cleanup code into a strbuf function Set gpg.format = ssh and user.signingkey to either a ssh public key string (like from an authorized_keys file), or a ssh key file. If the key file or the config value itself contains only a public key then the private key needs to be available via ssh-agent. gpg.ssh.program can be set to an alternative location of ssh-keygen. A somewhat recent openssh version (8.2p1+) of ssh-keygen is needed for this feature. Since only ssh-keygen is needed it can this way be installed seperately without upgrading your system openssh packages.

2021-09-10ssh signing: preliminary refactoring and clean-upFabian Stelzer5-50/+74
Openssh v8.2p1 added some new options to ssh-keygen for signature creation and verification. These allow us to use ssh keys for git signatures easily. In our corporate environment we use PIV x509 Certs on Yubikeys for email signing/encryption and ssh keys which I think is quite common (at least for the email part). This way we can establish the correct trust for the SSH Keys without setting up a separate GPG Infrastructure (which is still quite painful for users) or implementing x509 signing support for git (which lacks good forwarding mechanisms). Using ssh agent forwarding makes this feature easily usable in todays development environments where code is often checked out in remote VMs / containers. In such a setup the keyring & revocationKeyring can be centrally generated from the x509 CA information and distributed to the users. To be able to implement new signing formats this commit: - makes the sigc structure more generic by renaming "gpg_output" to "output" - introduces function pointers in the gpg_format structure to call format specific signing and verification functions - moves format detection from verify_signed_buffer into the check_signature api function and calls the format specific verify - renames and wraps sign_buffer to handle format specific signing logic as well Signed-off-by: Fabian Stelzer <fs@gigacodes.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2021-09-09pack-objects: rename .idx files into place after .bitmap filesÆvar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-1/+2
In preceding commits the race of renaming .idx files in place before .rev files and other auxiliary files was fixed in pack-write.c's finish_tmp_packfile(), builtin/repack.c's "struct exts", and builtin/index-pack.c's final(). As noted in the change to pack-write.c we left in place the issue of writing *.bitmap files after the *.idx, let's fix that issue. See 7cc8f971085 (pack-objects: implement bitmap writing, 2013-12-21) for commentary at the time when *.bitmap was implemented about how those files are written out, nothing in that commit contradicts what's being done here. Note that this commit and preceding ones only close any race condition with *.idx files being written before their auxiliary files if we're optimistic about our lack of fsync()-ing in this are not tripping us over. See the thread at [1] for a rabbit hole of various discussions about filesystem races in the face of doing and not doing fsync() (and if doing fsync(), not doing it properly). We may want to fsync the containing directory once after renaming the *.idx file into place, but that is outside the scope of this series. 1. https://lore.kernel.org/git/8735qgkvv1.fsf@evledraar.gmail.com/ Signed-off-by: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <avarab@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Taylor Blau <me@ttaylorr.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

Split up the finish_tmp_packfile() function and use the split-up version in pack-objects.c in preparation for moving the step of renaming the *.idx file later as part of a function change. Since the only other caller of finish_tmp_packfile() was in bulk-checkin.c, and it won't be needing a change to its *.idx renaming, provide a thin wrapper for the old function as a static function in that file. If other callers end up needing the simpler version it could be moved back to "pack-write.c" and "pack.h".

2021-09-09index-pack: refactor renaming in final()Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-25/+23
Refactor the renaming in final() into a helper function, this is similar in spirit to a preceding refactoring of finish_tmp_packfile() in pack-write.c. Before e37d0b8730b (builtin/index-pack.c: write reverse indexes, 2021-01-25) it probably wasn't worth it to have this sort of helper, due to the differing "else if" case for "pack" files v.s. "idx" files. But since we've got "rev" as well now, let's do the renaming via a helper, this is both a net decrease in lines, and improves the readability, since we can easily see at a glance that the logic for writing these three types of files is exactly the same, aside from the obviously differing cases of "*final_name" being NULL, and "make_read_only_if_same" being different.

2021-09-09pack-write.c: rename `.idx` files after `*.rev`Taylor Blau1-1/+1
We treat the presence of an `.idx` file as the indicator of whether or not it's safe to use a packfile. But `finish_tmp_packfile()` (which is responsible for writing the pack and moving the temporary versions of all of its auxiliary files into place) is inconsistent about the write order. Specifically, it moves the `.rev` file into place after the `.idx`, leaving open the possibility to open a pack which looks "ready" (because the `.idx` file exists and is readable) but appears momentarily to not have a `.rev` file. This causes Git to fall back to generating the pack's reverse index in memory. Though racy, this amounts to an unnecessary slow-down at worst, and doesn't affect the correctness of the resulting reverse index. Close this race by moving the .rev file into place before moving the .idx file into place. This still leaves the issue of `.idx` files being renamed into place before the auxiliary `.bitmap` file is renamed when in pack-object.c's write_pack_file() "write_bitmap_index" is true. That race will be addressed in subsequent commits.

2021-09-09pack-write: refactor renaming in finish_tmp_packfile()Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason3-24/+23
Refactor the renaming in finish_tmp_packfile() into a helper function. The callers are now expected to pass a "name_buffer" ending in "pack-OID." instead of the previous "pack-", we then append "pack", "idx" or "rev" to it. By doing the strbuf_setlen() in rename_tmp_packfile() we reuse the buffer and avoid the repeated allocations we'd get if that function had its own temporary "struct strbuf". This approach of reusing the buffer does make the last user in pack-object.c's write_pack_file() slightly awkward, since we needlessly do a strbuf_setlen() before calling strbuf_release() for consistency. In subsequent changes we'll move that bitmap writing code around, so let's not skip the strbuf_setlen() now. The previous strbuf_reset() idiom originated with 5889271114a (finish_tmp_packfile():use strbuf for pathname construction, 2014-03-03), which in turn was a minimal adjustment of pre-strbuf code added in 0e990530ae (finish_tmp_packfile(): a helper function, 2011-10-28).

2021-09-09bulk-checkin.c: store checksum directlyTaylor Blau1-6/+6
finish_bulk_checkin() stores the checksum from finalize_hashfile() by writing to the `hash` member of `struct object_id`, but that hash has nothing to do with an object id (it's just a convenient location that happens to be sized correctly). Store the hash directly in an unsigned char array. This behaves the same as writing to the `hash` member, but makes the intent clearer (and avoids allocating an extra four bytes for the `algo` member of `struct object_id`). It likewise prevents the possibility of a segfault when reading `algo` (e.g., by calling `oid_to_hex()`) if it is uninitialized.

2021-09-09t5562: use alarm() to interrupt timed child-waitJeff King1-8/+8
The t5562 script occasionally takes 60 extra seconds to complete due to a race condition in the invoke-with-content-length.pl helper. The way it's supposed to work is this: - we set up a SIGCLD handler - we kick off http-backend and write to it with a set content-length, but _don't_ close the pipe - we sleep for 60 seconds, assuming that SIGCLD from http-backend finishing will interrupt us - after the sleep finishes (whetherby 60 seconds or because it was interrupted by the signal), we check a flag to see if our SIGCLD handler was called. If not, then we complain. This usually completes immediately, because the signal interrupts our sleep. But very occasionally the child process dies _before_ we hit the sleep, so we don't realize it. The test still completes successfully (because our $exited flag is set), but it takes an extra 60 seconds. There's no way to check the flag and sleep atomically. So the best we can do with this approach is to sleep in smaller chunks (say, 1 second) and check the flag incrementally. Then we waste a maximum of 1 second if we lose the race. This was proposed in: https://lore.kernel.org/git/20190218205028.32486-1-max@max630.net/ and it does work. But we can do better. Instead of blocking on sleep and waiting for the child signal to interrupt us, we can block on the child exiting and set an alarm signal to trigger the timeout. This lets us exit the script immediately when the child behaves (with no race possible), and wait a maximum of 60 seconds when it doesn't. Note one small subtlety: perl is very willing to restart the waitpid() call after the alarm is delivered, even if we've thrown an exception via die. "perldoc -f alarm" claims you can get around this with an eval/die combo (and even has some example code), but it doesn't seem to work for me with waitpid(); instead, we continue waiting until the child exits. So instead, we'll instruct the child process to exit in the alarm handler itself. In the original code this was done by calling close($out). That would continue to work, since our child is always http-backend, which should exit when its stdin closes. But we can be even more robust against a hung or confused child by sending a KILL signal, which should terminate it immediately.

Starting in commit 0f533c7284 (pack-bitmap: read multi-pack bitmaps, 2021-08-31), we no longer look at the "struct bitmap_index" passed to try_partial_reuse(). This is because we only handle verbatim reuse from a single pack: either the pack whose bitmap we're looking at, or the "preferred" pack of a midx bitmap. And thus the primary item we look at is the "pack" parameter added by that same commit, and not the bitmap_git->pack parameter (which would be NULL for a midx bitmap). It's our caller, reuse_partial_packfile_from_bitmap(), which decides which pack to use and passes it in to us. Drop the unused parameter to prevent confusion.

2021-09-09sequencer: ensure full index if not ORT strategyDerrick Stolee1-0/+9
The sequencer is used by 'cherry-pick' and 'rebase' to sequence a list of operations that modify the index. Since we intend to remove the need for 'command_requires_full_index', we need to ensure the sparse index is expanded every time it is written to disk between these steps. That is, unless the merge strategy is 'ort' where the index can remain sparse throughout. There are two main places to be extra careful about a full index: 1. Right before calling merge_trees(), ensure the index is full. This happens within an 'else' where the 'if' block checks if the 'ort' strategy is selected. 2. During read_and_refresh_cache(), the index might be written to disk and converted to sparse in the process. Ensure it expands back to full afterwards by checking if the strategy is _not_ 'ort'. This 'if' statement is the logical negation of the 'if' in item (1).

Merge conflicts happen often enough to want to avoid expanding a sparse index when they happen, as long as those conflicts are within the sparse-checkout cone. If a conflict exists outside of the sparse-checkout cone, then we still need to expand before iterating over the index entries. This is critical to do in advance because of how the original_cache_nr is tracked to allow inserting and replacing cache entries. Iterate over the conflicted files and check if any paths are outside of the sparse-checkout cone. If so, then expand the full index. Add a test that demonstrates that we do not expand the index, even when we hit a conflict within the sparse-checkout cone.

2021-09-09merge: make sparse-aware with ORTDerrick Stolee4-2/+24
Allow 'git merge' to operate without expanding a sparse index, at least not immediately. The index still will be expanded in a few cases: 1. If the merge strategy is 'recursive', then we enable command_requires_full_index at the start of the merge_recursive() method. We expect sparse-index users to also have the 'ort' strategy enabled. 2. With the 'ort' strategy, if the merge results in a conflicted file, then we expand the index before updating the working tree. The loop that iterates over the worktree replaces index entries and tracks 'origintal_cache_nr' which can become completely wrong if the index expands in the middle of the operation. This safety valve is important before that loop starts. A later change will focus this to only expand if we indeed have a conflict outside of the sparse-checkout cone. 3. Other merge strategies are executed as a 'git merge-X' subcommand, and those strategies are currently protected with the 'command_requires_full_index' guard. Some test updates are required, including a mistaken 'git checkout -b' that did not specify the base branch, causing merges to be fast-forward merges.
