Commit 10ecfa7649 (verify_path: disallow symlinks in .gitmodules,
2018-05-04) made it impossible to load a symlink .gitmodules file into
the index. However, there are no tests of this behavior. Let's make sure
this case is covered. We can easily reuse the test setup created by
the matching b7b1fca175 (fsck: complain when .gitmodules is a symlink,
2018-05-04).

This script has already expanded beyond its original intent of ".. in
submodule names" to include other malicious submodule bits. Let's update
the name and description to reflect that, as well as the fact that we'll
soon be adding similar tests for other dotfiles (.gitattributes, etc).
We'll also renumber it to move it out of the group of submodule-specific
tests.

Many calls to report() in fsck_tree() are kept on a single line and are
quite long. Most were pretty big to begin with, but have gotten even
longer over the years as we've added more parameters. Let's accept the

Commit b2f2039c2b (fsck: accept an oid instead of a "struct tree" for
fsck_tree(), 2019-10-18) introduced a new "oid" parameter to
fsck_tree(), and we pass it to the report() function when we find
problems. However, that is shadowed within the tree-walking loop by the
existing "oid" variable which we use to store the oid of each tree
entry. As a result, we may report the wrong oid for some problems we
detect within the loop (the entry oid, instead of the tree oid).
Our tests didn't catch this because they checked only that we found the
expected fsck problem, not that it was attached to the correct object.
Let's rename both variables in the function to avoid confusion. This
makes the diff a little noisy (e.g., all of the report() calls outside
the loop were already correct but need to be touched), but makes sure we
catch all cases and will avoid similar confusion in the future.
And we can update the test to be a bit more specific and catch this
problem.

Since GETTEXT_POISON does not exist anymore, there is no point warning
people about whether we should use test_i18ngrep. This is doubly
confusing because the comment was describing why it was OK to use grep,
but it got caught up in the mass conversion of 674ba34038 (fsck: mark
strings for translation, 2018-11-10).
Note there are other uses of test_i18ngrep in this script which are now
obsolete; I'll save those for a mass-cleanup. My goal here was just to
fix the confusing comment in code I'm about to refactor.

Format-patch doesn't have a way to format merges in a way that can be
applied by git-am (or any other tool), and so it just omits them.
However, this may be a surprising implication for users who are not well
versed in how the tool works. Let's add a note to the documentation
making this more clear.

A negative delta depth makes no sense, and the code is not prepared to
handle it. If passed "--depth=-1" on the command line, then this line
from break_delta_chains():
cur->depth = (total_depth--) % (depth + 1);
triggers a divide-by-zero. This is undefined behavior according to the C
standard, but on POSIX systems results in SIGFPE killing the process.
This is certainly one way to inform the use that the command was
invalid, but it's a bit friendlier to just treat it as "don't allow any
deltas", which we already do for --depth=0.

We'd expect this to cleanly produce no deltas at all (as opposed to

A negative window size makes no sense, and the code in find_deltas() is
not prepared to handle it. If you pass "-1", for example, we end up
generate a 0-length array of "struct unpacked", but our loop assumes it
has at least one entry in it (and we end up reading garbage memory).
We could complain to the user about this, but it's more forgiving to
just clamp it to 0, which means "do not find any deltas at all". The
0-case is already tested earlier in the script, so we'll make sure this
does the same thing.

The first set of tests in t5300 goes back to 2005, and doesn't use some
of our customary style and tools these days. In preparation for touching
them, let's modernize a few things:
- titles go on the line with test_expect_success, with a hanging
open-quote to start the test body
- test bodies should be indented with tabs
- opening braces for shell blocks in &&-chains go on their own line
- no space between redirect operators and files (">foo", not "> foo")
- avoid doing work outside of test blocks; in this case, we can stick
the setup of ".git2" into the appropriate blocks
- avoid modifying and then cleaning up the environment or current
directory by using subshells and "git -C"
- this test does a curious thing when testing the unpacking: it sets
GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY, and then does a "git init" in the _original_
directory, creating a weird mixed situation. Instead, it's much
simpler to just "git init --bare" a new repository to unpack into,
and check the results there. I renamed this "git2" instead of
".git2" to make it more clear it's a separate repo.
- we can observe that the bodies of the no-delta, ref_delta, and
ofs_delta cases are all virtually identical except for the pack
creation, and factor out shared helper functions. I collapsed "do
the unpack" and "check the results of the unpack" into a single
test, since that makes the expected lifetime of the "git2" temporary
directory more clear (that also lets us use test_when_finished to
clean it up). This does make the "-v" output slightly less useful,
but the improvement in reading the actual test code makes it worth
it.
- I dropped the "pwd" calls from some tests. These don't do anything
functional, and I suspect may have been an aid for debugging when
the script was more cavalier about leaving the working directory
changed between tests.

01d3a526 (t0000: check whether the shell supports the "local"
keyword, 2017-10-26) raised a test balloon to see if those who build
and test Git use a platform with a shell that lacks support for the
"local" keyword. After two years, 7f0b5908 (t0000: reword comments
for "local" test, 2019-08-08) documented that "local" keyword, even
though is outside POSIX, is allowed in our test scripts.
Let's write it in the CodingGuidelines, too. It might be tempting
to allow it in scripted Porcelains (we have avoided getting them
contaminiated by "local" so far), but they are on their way out and
getting rewritten in C.

The rewrite of git-merge from shell to C in 1c7b76be7d (Build in merge,
2008-07-07) accidentally transformed the message:

due to reversed printf() arguments. This problem has gone unnoticed
despite being touched over the years by 7f87aff22c (Teach/Fix pull/fetch

Although the various "Already up to date" messages resulting from merge
attempts share identical phrasing, they use a mix of punctuation ranging
from "." to "!" and even "Yeeah!", which leads to extra work for
translators. Ease the job of translators by settling upon "." as
punctuation for all such messages.
While at it, take advantage of printf_ln() to further ease the
translation task so translators need not worry about line termination,
and fix a case of missing line termination in the (unused)
merge_ort_nonrecursive() function.

Commit e4c7b33747 ("bisect--helper: reimplement `bisect_skip` shell
function in C", 2021-02-03), as part of the shell-to-C conversion,
forgot to read the 'terms' file (.git/BISECT_TERMS) during the new
'bisect skip' command implementation. As a result, the 'bisect skip'
command will use the default 'bad'/'good' terms. If the bisection
terms have been set to non-default values (for example by the
'bisect start' command), then the 'bisect skip' command will fail.
In order to correct this problem, we insert a call to the get_terms()
function, which reads the non-default terms from that file (if set),
in the '--bisect-skip' command implementation of 'bisect--helper'.
Also, add a test[1] to protect against potential future regression.

The backslash character is not a valid part of a file name on Windows.
If, in Windows, Git attempts to write a file that has a backslash
character in the filename, it will be incorrectly interpreted as a
directory separator.
This caused CVE-2019-1354 in MinGW, as this behaviour can be manipulated
to cause the checkout to write to files it ought not write to, such as
adding code to the .git/hooks directory. This was fixed by e1d911dd4c
(mingw: disallow backslash characters in tree objects' file names,
2019-09-12). However, the vulnerability also exists in Cygwin: while
Cygwin mostly provides a POSIX-like path system, it will still interpret
a backslash as a directory separator.
To avoid this vulnerability, CVE-2021-29468, extend the previous fix to
also apply to Cygwin.
Similarly, extend the test case added by the previous version of the
commit. The test suite doesn't have an easy way to say "run this test
if in MinGW or Cygwin", so add a new test prerequisite that covers both.
As well as checking behaviour in the presence of paths containing
backslashes, the existing test also checks behaviour in the presence of
paths that differ only by the presence of a trailing ".". MinGW follows
normal Windows application behaviour and treats them as the same path,
but Cygwin more closely emulates *nix systems (at the expense of
compatibility with native Windows applications) and will create and
distinguish between such paths. Gate the relevant bit of that test
accordingly.

While not documented as such, many of the top-level options like
`--git-dir` and `--work-tree` support two syntaxes: they accept both an
equals sign between option and its value, and they do support option and
value as two separate arguments. The recently added `--config-env`
option only supports the syntax with an equals sign.
Mitigate this inconsistency by accepting both syntaxes and add tests to
verify both work.

We pass our prune expiration to mark_reachable_objects(), which will
traverse not only the reachable objects, but consider any recent ones as
tips for reachability; see d3038d22f9 (prune: keep objects reachable
from recent objects, 2014-10-15) for details.
However, this interacts badly with the bitmap code path added in
fde67d6896 (prune: use bitmaps for reachability traversal, 2019-02-13).
If we hit the bitmap-optimized path, we return immediately to avoid the
regular traversal, accidentally skipping the "also traverse recent"
code.
Instead, we should do an if-else for the bitmap versus regular
traversal, and then follow up with the "recent" traversal in either
case. This reuses the "rev_info" for a bitmap and then a regular
traversal, but that should work OK (the bitmap code clears the pending
array in the usual way, just like a regular traversal would).
Note that I dropped the comment above the regular traversal here. It
has little explanatory value, and makes the if-else logic much harder to
read.
Here are a few variants that I rejected:
- it seems like both the reachability and recent traversals could be
done in a single traversal. This was rejected by d3038d22f9 (prune:
keep objects reachable from recent objects, 2014-10-15), though the
balance may be different when using bitmaps. However, there's a
subtle correctness issue, too: we use revs->ignore_missing_links for
the recent traversal, but not the reachability one.
- we could try using bitmaps for the recent traversal, too, which
could possibly improve performance. But it would require some fixes
in the bitmap code, which uses ignore_missing_links for its own
purposes. Plus it would probably not help all that much in practice.
We use the reachable tips to generate bitmaps, so those objects are
likely not covered by bitmaps (unless they just became unreachable).
And in general, we expect the set of unreachable objects to be much
smaller anyway, so there's less to gain.
The test in t5304 detects the bug and confirms the fix.
I also beefed up the tests in t6501, which covers the mtime-checking
code more thoroughly, to handle the bitmap case (in addition to just
"loose" and "packed" cases). Interestingly, this test doesn't actually
detect the bug, because it is running "git gc", and not "prune"
directly. And "gc" will call "repack" first, which does not suffer the
same bug. So the old-but-reachable-from-recent objects get scooped up
into the new pack along with the actually-recent objects, which gives
both a recent mtime. But it seemed prudent to get more coverage of the
bitmap case for related code.

When a bitmap walk has to traverse (to fill in non-bitmapped objects),
we use rev_info's include_check mechanism to let us stop the traversal
early. But after setting the function and its data parameter, we never
clean it up. This means that if the rev_info is used for a subsequent
traversal without bitmaps, it will unexpectedly call into our
include_check function (worse, it will do so pointing to a now-defunct
stack variable in include_check_data, likely resulting in a segfault).
There's no code which does this now, but it's an accident waiting to
happen. Let's clean up after ourselves in the bitmap code.

Besides being a genuinely useful thing to do, this also just makes sense
and harmonizes which flags may be used when. `git subtree split
--rejoin` amounts to "automatically go ahead and do a `git subtree
merge` after doing the main `git subtree split`", so it's weird and
arbitrary that you can't pass `--squash` to `git subtree split --rejoin`
like you can `git subtree merge`. It's weird that `git subtree split
--rejoin` inherits `git subtree merge`'s `--message` but not `--squash`.
Reconcile the situation by just having `split --rejoin` actually just
call `merge` internally (or call `add` instead, as appropriate), so it
can get access to the full `merge` behavior, including `--squash`.

Just went through the docs looking for anything inaccurate or that can
be improved.
In the '-h' text, in the man page synopsis, and in the man page
description: Normalize the ordering of the list of sub-commands: 'add',
'merge', 'split', 'pull', 'push'. This allows us to kinda separate the
lower-level add/merge/split from the higher-level pull/push.
'-h' text:
- correction: Indicate that split's arg is optional.
- clarity: Emphasize that 'pull' takes the 'add'/'merge' flags.
man page:
- correction: State that all subcommands take options (it seemed to
indicate that only 'split' takes any options other than '-P').
- correction: 'split' only guarantees that the results are identical if
the flags are identical.
- correction: The flag is named '--ignore-joins', not '--ignore-join'.
- completeness: Clarify that 'push' always operates on HEAD, and that
'split' operates on HEAD if no local commit is given.
- clarity: In the description, when listing commands, repeat what their
arguments are. This way the reader doesn't need to flip back and
forth between the command description and the synopsis and the full
description to understand what's being said.
- clarity: In the <variables> used to give command arguments, give
slightly longer, descriptive names. Like <local-commit> instead of
just <commit>.
- clarity: Emphasize that 'pull' takes the 'add'/'merge' flags.
- style: In the synopsis, list options before the subcommand. This
makes things line up and be much more readable when shown
non-monospace (such as in `make html`), and also more closely matches
other man pages (like `git-submodule.txt`).
- style: Use the correct syntax for indicating the options ([<options>]
instead of [OPTIONS]).
- style: In the synopsis, separate 'pull' and 'push' from the other
lower-level commands. I think this helps readability.
- style: Code-quote things in prose that seem like they should be
code-quoted, like '.gitmodules', flags, or full commands.
- style: Minor wording improvements, like more consistent mood (many
of the command descriptions start in the imperative mood and switch
to the indicative mode by the end). That sort of thing.
- style: Capitalize "ID".
- style: Remove the "This option is only valid for XXX command" remarks
from each option, and instead rely on the section headings.
- style: Since that line is getting edited anyway, switch "behaviour" to
American "behavior".
- style: Trim trailing whitespace.

Currently, the $indent variable is just used to track how deeply we're
nested, and the debug log is indented by things like
debug " foo"
That is: The indentation-level is hard-coded. It used to be that the

statically, so it made sense to just hard-code it in the

Currently, debug output (triggered by passing '-d') and progress output
stomp on each other. The debug output is just streamed as lines to
stderr, and the progress output is sent to stderr as '%s\r'. When
writing to a file, it is awkward to read and difficult to distinguish
between the debug output and a progress line. When writing to a
terminal the debug lines hide progress lines.
So, when '-d' has been passed, spit out progress as 'progress: %s\n',
instead of as '%s\r', so that it can be detected, and so that the debug
lines don't overwrite the progress when written to a terminal.

arguments are, and add an `assert` checking the number of arguments.
In figuring out each thing's arguments in order to write those comments
and assertions, it turns out that find_existing_splits is written as if
it takes multiple 'revs', but it is in fact only ever passed a single
'rev':
unrevs="$(find_existing_splits "$dir" "$rev")" || exit $?
So go ahead and codify that by documenting and asserting that it takes
exactly two arguments, one dir and one rev.

`cmd_add` starts with a check that the directory doesn't yet exist.
However, the `main` function performs the exact same check before
calling `cmd_add`. So remove the check from `cmd_add`.

The main argument parser goes ahead and tries to parse revs to make
things simpler for the sub-command implementations. But, it includes
enough special cases for different sub-commands. And it's difficult
having having to think about "is this info coming from an argument, or a
global variable?". So the main argument parser's effort to make things
"simpler" ends up just making it more confusing and complicated.
Begone with the 'revs' global variable; parse 'rev=$(...)' as needed in
individual 'cmd_*' functions.
Begone with the 'default' global variable. Its would-be value is
knowable just from which function we're in.
Begone with the 'ensure_single_rev' function. Its functionality can be
achieved by passing '--verify' to 'git rev-parse'.

Scripts needing to fuss with with adding $(git --exec-prefix) PATH
before loading git-sh-setup is a thing of the past. As far as I can
tell, it's been a thing of the past since since Git v1.2.0 (2006-02-12),
or more specifically, since 77cb17e940 (Exec git programs without using
PATH, 2006-01-10). However, it stuck around in contrib scripts and in
third-party scripts for long enough that it wasn't unusual to see.
Originally `git subtree` didn't fuss with PATH, but when people
(including the original subtree author) had problems, because it was a
common thing to see, it seemed that having subtree fuss with PATH was a
reasonable solution.
Here is an abridged history of fussing with PATH in subtree:
2987e6add3 (Add explicit path of git installation by 'git --exec-path', Gianluca Pacchiella, 2009-08-20)
As pointed out by documentation, the correct use of 'git-sh-setup' is
using $(git --exec-path) to avoid problems with not standard
installations.
-. git-sh-setup
+. $(git --exec-path)/git-sh-setup
33aaa697a2 (Improve patch to use git --exec-path: add to PATH instead, Avery Pennarun, 2009-08-26)
If you (like me) are using a modified git straight out of its source
directory (ie. without installing), then --exec-path isn't actually correct.
Add it to the PATH instead, so if it is correct, it'll work, but if it's
not, we fall back to the previous behaviour.
-. $(git --exec-path)/git-sh-setup
+PATH=$(git --exec-path):$PATH
+. git-sh-setup
9c632ea29c ((Hopefully) fix PATH setting for msysgit, Avery Pennarun, 2010-06-24)
Reported by Evan Shaw. The problem is that $(git --exec-path) includes a
'git' binary which is incompatible with the one in /usr/bin; if you run it,
it gives you an error about libiconv2.dll.
+OPATH=$PATH
PATH=$(git --exec-path):$PATH
. git-sh-setup
+PATH=$OPATH # apparently needed for some versions of msysgit
df2302d774 (Another fix for PATH and msysgit, Avery Pennarun, 2010-06-24)
Evan Shaw tells me the previous fix didn't work. Let's use this one
instead, which he says does work.
This fix is kind of wrong because it will run the "correct" git-sh-setup
*after* the one in /usr/bin, if there is one, which could be weird if you
have multiple versions of git installed. But it works on my Linux and his
msysgit, so it's obviously better than what we had before.
-OPATH=$PATH
-PATH=$(git --exec-path):$PATH
+PATH=$PATH:$(git --exec-path)
. git-sh-setup
-PATH=$OPATH # apparently needed for some versions of msysgit
First of all, I disagree with Gianluca's reading of the documentation:
- I haven't gone back to read what the documentation said in 2009, but
in my reading of the 2021 documentation is that it includes "$(git
--exec-path)/" in the synopsis for illustrative purposes, not to say
it's the proper way.
- After being executed by `git`, the git exec path should be the very
first entry in PATH, so it shouldn't matter.
- None of the scripts that are part of git do it that way.
But secondly, the root reason for fussing with PATH seems to be that
Avery didn't know that he needs to set GIT_EXEC_PATH if he's going to
use git from the source directory without installing.
And finally, Evan's issue is clearly just a bug in msysgit. I assume
that msysgit has since fixed the issue, and also msysgit has been
deprecated for 6 years now, so let's drop the workaround for it.
So, remove the line fussing with PATH. However, since subtree *is* in
'contrib/' and it might get installed in funny ways by users
after-the-fact, add a sanity check to the top of the script, checking
that it is installed correctly.

"$*" is for when you want to concatenate the args together,
whitespace-separated; and "$@" is for when you want them to be separate
strings.
There are several places in subtree that erroneously use $@ when
concatenating args together into an error message.
For instance, if the args are argv[1]="dead" and argv[2]="beef", then
the line
die "You must provide exactly one revision. Got: '$@'"
surely intends to call 'die' with the argument
argv[1]="You must provide exactly one revision. Got: 'dead beef'"
however, because the line used $@ instead of $*, it will actually call
'die' with the arguments
argv[1]="You must provide exactly one revision. Got: 'dead"
argv[2]="beef'"
This isn't a big deal, because 'die' concatenates its arguments together
anyway (using "$*"). But that doesn't change the fact that it was a
mistake to use $@ instead of $*, even though in the end $@ still ended
up doing the right thing.

Suport for Git versions older than 1.7.0 (older than February 2010) was
nice to have when git-subtree lived out-of-tree. But now that it lives
in git.git, it's not necessary to keep around. While it's technically
in contrib, with the standard 'git' packages for common systems
(including Arch Linux and macOS) including git-subtree, it seems
vanishingly likely to me that people are separately installing
git-subtree from git.git alongside an older 'git' install (although it
also seems vanishingly likely that people are still using >11 year old
git installs).
Not that there's much reason to remove it either, it's not much code,
and none of my changes depend on a newer git (to my knowledge, anyway;
I'm not actually testing against older git). I just figure it's an easy
piece of fat to trim, in the journey to making the whole thing easier to
hack on.
"Ignore space change" is probably helpful when viewing this diff.
