2026-07-07setup: pass worktree to `init_db()`Patrick Steinhardt1-24/+10
In the preceding commits we have refactored how we discover and set up repositories so that we cannot end up with partially-configured repos. Instead, we apply the gitdir, worktree and repository format in a single location, only. Initializing a new repository has the same antipattern though: while most of the information for the new repository is passed via parameters, the work tree is instead propagated by configuring the repository's work tree. Refactor the code so that we also pass the work tree as an explicit parameter. Like this, configuration fo the repository happens in a single spot, too, just as with repository discovery.

2026-06-11environment: split up concerns of `is_bare_repository_cfg`Patrick Steinhardt1-1/+1
The `is_bare_repository_cfg` variable tracks two different pieces of information: - It tracks whether the user has invoked git with the "--bare" flag, which makes us treat any discovered Git repository as if it was a bare repository. - Otherwise it tracks whether the discovered `the_repository` is bare. This makes the flag extremely confusing and creates a bit of a challenge when handling multiple repositories in the same process. Split up the concerns of this variable into two pieces: - `startup_info.force_bare_repository` tracks whether the user has passed the "--bare" flag. This is used as a hint to treat newly set up repositories as bare regardless of whether or not they have a worktree. - `struct repository::bare_cfg` tracks whether or not a repository is considered bare. This takes into account both whether the user has passed "--bare" and the discovered state of the repository itself. Whether or not a repository is bare is now resolved when checking the repository's format, and is then later applied to the repository itself via `apply_repository_format()`. This enables a subsequent change where we make `is_bare_repository()` not depend on global state anymore.

2026-06-11builtin/init: stop modifying `is_bare_repository_cfg`Patrick Steinhardt1-7/+8
We're modifying `is_bare_repository_cfg` in "builtin/init.c" to indicate whether the newly created repository is supposed to be a bare repository or not. This is ultimately unnecessary though: when initializing the repository in `init_db()` we eventually set `is_bare_repository_cfg = !work_tree`, so all that matters is whether or not we have a working tree configured, and the working tree is set up in the non-bare in "builtin/init.c". Stop modifying the global variable in "builtin/init.c" in favor of a local variable. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2026-06-11builtin/init: simplify logic to configure worktreePatrick Steinhardt1-13/+18
In the preceding commit we have stopped modifying the global `git_work_tree_cfg` variable. With this change there's now some code paths where we end up setting the local `git_work_tree_cfg` variable, but without actually using the value for anything. Refactor the code a bit so that we only set the worktree configuration in case it's actually needed. Furthermore, reflow it a bit to make the code easier to follow.

2026-06-11builtin/init: stop modifying global `git_work_tree_cfg` variablePatrick Steinhardt1-0/+4
When executing git-init(1) we need to figure out the final location of the worktree. This location can be configured in a couple of ways: via an environment variable, via the preexisting "core.worktree" config in case we're reinitializing, or implicitly when reinitializing a non-bare repository. When checking for the worktree location in "builtin/init-db.c" we populate any potentially-discovered value both by setting the global `git_work_tree_cfg` variable and via `set_git_work_tree()`, which ultimately ends up modifying `struct repository::worktree`. Modifying `git_work_tree_cfg` is unnecessary though: we configure the worktree in `create_default_files()`, and that function derives the worktree location via `repo_get_work_tree()`. Consequently, propagating the worktree via `set_git_work_tree()` is sufficient. Stop munging `git_work_tree_cfg` and make it file-local to "setup.c" and function-local to `cmd_init_db()`.

The injection of `the_repository` is thus bumped one level higher, where callers now pass it in explicitly. Similar as with the preceding commit, we track whether the worktree has been initialized already via a global variable so that we can die in case the repository is re-initialized with a different worktree path.

2025-04-17global: use designated initializers for optionsPatrick Steinhardt1-4/+9
While we expose macros for most of our different option types understood by the "parse-options" subsystem, not every combination of fields that has one as that would otherwise quickly lead to an explosion of macros. Instead, we just initialize structures manually for those variants of fields that don't have a macro. Callsites that open-code these structure initialization don't use designated initializers though and instead just provide values for each of the fields that they want to initialize. This has three significant downsides: - Callsites need to specify all values up to the last field that they care about. This often includes fields that should simply be left at their default zero-initialized state, which adds distraction. - Any reader not deeply familiar with the layout of the structure has a hard time figuring out what the respective initializers mean. - Reordering or introducing new fields in the middle of the structure is impossible without adapting all callsites. Convert all sites to instead use designated initializers, which we have started using in our codebase quite a while ago. This allows us to skip any default-initialized fields, gives the reader context by specifying the field names and allows us to reorder or introduce new fields where we want to.

The `safe_create_leading_directories()` function and its relatives are located in "object-file.c", which is not a good fit as they provide generic functionality not related to objects at all. Move them into "path.c", which already hosts `safe_create_dir()` and its relative `safe_create_dir_in_gitdir()`.

2024-01-02setup: start tracking ref storage formatPatrick Steinhardt1-1/+3
In order to discern which ref storage format a repository is supposed to use we need to start setting up and/or discovering the format. This needs to happen in two separate code paths. - The first path is when we create a repository via `init_db()`. When we are re-initializing a preexisting repository we need to retain the previously used ref storage format -- if the user asked for a different format then this indicates an error and we error out. Otherwise we either initialize the repository with the format asked for by the user or the default format, which currently is the "files" backend. - The second path is when discovering repositories, where we need to read the config of that repository. There is not yet any way to configure something other than the "files" backend, so we can just blindly set the ref storage format to this backend. Wire up this logic so that we have the ref storage format always readily available when needed. As there is only a single backend and because it is not configurable we cannot yet verify that this tracking works as expected via tests, but tests will be added in subsequent commits. To countermand this ommission now though, raise a BUG() in case the ref storage format is not set up properly in `ref_store_init()`.

This commit was prompted by a desire to move the functions which builtin/init-db.c and builtin/clone.c share out of the former file and into setup.c. One issue that made it difficult was the init_is_bare_repository global variable. init_is_bare_repository's sole use in life it to cache a value in init_db(), and then be used in create_default_files(). This is a bit odd since init_db() directly calls create_default_files(), and is the only caller of that function. Convert the global to a simple function parameter instead. (Of course, this doesn't fix the fact that this value is then ignored by create_default_files(), as noted in a big TODO comment in that function, but it at least includes no behavioral change other than getting rid of a very questionable global variable.)

2023-06-21init-db: document existing bug with core.bare in template configElijah Newren1-1/+28
The comments in create_default_files() talks about reading config from the config file in the specified `--templates` directory, which leads to the question of whether core.bare could be set in such a config file and thus whether the code is doing the right thing. It turns out, that it doesn't; it unconditionally ignores core.bare in the config file in any --templates directory. It is not clear to me that fixing it can be done within this function; it seems to occur too late: * create_default_files() is called by init_db() * init_db() is called by both builtin/{clone.c,init-db.c} * both callers of init_db() call set_git_work_tree() before init_db() and in order to actual affect whether a repository is bear, we'd need to somewhere reset these values, not just the is_bare_repository_cfg setting. I do not want to open this can of worms at this time; I'm trying to clean up some headers, for which I need to move some functions, for which I need to clean up some globals, and that's far enough down the rabbit hole. So, simply document the issue with a careful TODO comment and a few testcases. Signed-off-by: Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2023-04-24hash-ll.h: split out of hash.h to remove dependency on repository.hElijah Newren1-0/+1
hash.h depends upon and includes repository.h, due to the definition and use of the_hash_algo (defined as the_repository->hash_algo). However, most headers trying to include hash.h are only interested in the layout of the structs like object_id. Move the parts of hash.h that do not depend upon repository.h into a new file hash-ll.h (the "low level" parts of hash.h), and adjust other files to use this new header where the convenience inline functions aren't needed. This allows hash.h and object.h to be fairly small, minimal headers. It also exposes a lot of hidden dependencies on both path.h (which was brought in by repository.h) and repository.h (which was previously implicitly brought in by object.h), so also adjust other files to be more explicit about what they depend upon.

2021-05-25init: fix bug regarding ~/ expansion in init.templateDirMatheus Tavares1-1/+2
We used to read the init.templateDir setting at builtin/init-db.c using a git_config() callback that, in turn, called git_config_pathname(). To simplify the config reading logic at this file and plug a memory leak, this was replaced by a direct call to git_config_get_value() at e4de4502e6 ("init: remove git_init_db_config() while fixing leaks", 2021-03-14). However, this function doesn't provide path expanding semantics, like git_config_pathname() does, so paths with '~/' and '~user/' are treated literally. This makes 'git init' fail to handle init.templateDir paths using these constructs: $ git config init.templateDir '~/templates_dir' $ git init 'warning: templates not found in ~/templates_dir' Replace the git_config_get_value() call by git_config_get_pathname(), which does the '~/' and '~user/' expansions. Also add a regression test. Note that unlike git_config_get_value(), the config cache does not own the memory for the path returned by git_config_get_pathname(), so we must free() it.

template_dir starts off pointing to either argv or nothing. However if the value supplied in argv is a relative path, absolute_pathdup() is used to turn it into an absolute path. absolute_pathdup() allocates a new string, and we then "leak" it when cmd_init_db() completes. We don't bother to actually free the return value (instead we UNLEAK it), because there's no significant advantage to doing so here. Correctly freeing it would require more significant changes to code flow which would be more noisy than beneficial.

2021-03-14init: remove git_init_db_config() while fixing leaksAndrzej Hunt1-21/+7
The primary goal of this change is to stop leaking init_db_template_dir. This leak can happen because: 1. git_init_db_config() allocates new memory into init_db_template_dir without first freeing the existing value. 2. init_db_template_dir might already contain data, either because: 2.1 git_config() can be invoked twice with this callback in a single process - at least 2 allocations are likely. 2.2 A single git_config() allocation can invoke the callback multiple times for a given key (see further explanation in the function docs) - each of those calls will trigger another leak. The simplest fix for the leak would be to free(init_db_template_dir) before overwriting it. Instead we choose to convert to fetching init.templatedir via git_config_get_value() as that is more explicit, more efficient, and avoids allocations (the returned result is owned by the config cache, so we aren't responsible for freeing it). If we remove init_db_template_dir, git_init_db_config() ends up being responsible only for forwarding core.* config values to platform_core_config(). However platform_core_config() already ignores non-core.* config values, so we can safely remove git_init_db_config() and invoke git_config() directly with platform_core_config() as the callback. The platform_core_config forwarding was originally added in: 287853392a (mingw: respect core.hidedotfiles = false in git-init again, 2019-03-11 And I suspect the potential for a leak existed since the original implementation of git_init_db_config in: 90b45187ba (Add `init.templatedir` configuration variable., 2010-02-17) LSAN output from t0001: Direct leak of 73 byte(s) in 1 object(s) allocated from: #0 0x49a859 in realloc /home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILD/llvm-11.0.0.src/build/../projects/compiler-rt/lib/asan/asan_malloc_linux.cpp:164:3 #1 0x9a7276 in xrealloc /home/ahunt/oss-fuzz/git/wrapper.c:126:8 #2 0x9362ad in strbuf_grow /home/ahunt/oss-fuzz/git/strbuf.c:98:2 #3 0x936eaa in strbuf_add /home/ahunt/oss-fuzz/git/strbuf.c:295:2 #4 0x868112 in strbuf_addstr /home/ahunt/oss-fuzz/git/./strbuf.h:304:2 #5 0x86a8ad in expand_user_path /home/ahunt/oss-fuzz/git/path.c:758:2 #6 0x720bb1 in git_config_pathname /home/ahunt/oss-fuzz/git/config.c:1287:10 #7 0x5960e2 in git_init_db_config /home/ahunt/oss-fuzz/git/builtin/init-db.c:161:11 #8 0x7255b8 in configset_iter /home/ahunt/oss-fuzz/git/config.c:1982:7 #9 0x7253fc in repo_config /home/ahunt/oss-fuzz/git/config.c:2311:2 #10 0x725ca7 in git_config /home/ahunt/oss-fuzz/git/config.c:2399:2 #11 0x593e8d in create_default_files /home/ahunt/oss-fuzz/git/builtin/init-db.c:225:2 #12 0x5935c6 in init_db /home/ahunt/oss-fuzz/git/builtin/init-db.c:449:11 #13 0x59588e in cmd_init_db /home/ahunt/oss-fuzz/git/builtin/init-db.c:714:9 #14 0x4cd60d in run_builtin /home/ahunt/oss-fuzz/git/git.c:453:11 #15 0x4cb2da in handle_builtin /home/ahunt/oss-fuzz/git/git.c:704:3 #16 0x4ccc37 in run_argv /home/ahunt/oss-fuzz/git/git.c:771:4 #17 0x4cac29 in cmd_main /home/ahunt/oss-fuzz/git/git.c:902:19 #18 0x69c4de in main /home/ahunt/oss-fuzz/git/common-main.c:52:11 #19 0x7f23552d6349 in __libc_start_main (/lib64/libc.so.6+0x24349) Signed-off-by: Andrzej Hunt <ajrhunt@google.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2021-03-10builtin/init-db: handle bare clones when core.bare set to falsebrian m. carlson1-2/+2
In 552955ed7f ("clone: use more conventional config/option layering", 2020-10-01), clone learned to read configuration options earlier in its execution, before creating the new repository. However, that led to a problem: if the core.bare setting is set to false in the global config, cloning a bare repository segfaults. This happens because the repository is falsely thought to be non-bare, but clone has set the work tree to NULL, which is then dereferenced. The code to initialize the repository already considers the fact that a user might want to override the --bare option for git init, but it doesn't take into account clone, which uses a different option. Let's just check that the work tree is not NULL, since that's how clone indicates that the repository is bare. This is also the case for git init, so we won't be regressing that case.

2020-12-13get_default_branch_name(): prepare for showing some adviceJohannes Schindelin1-3/+5
We are about to introduce a message giving users running `git init` some advice about `init.defaultBranch`. This will necessarily be done in `repo_default_branch_name()`. Not all code paths want to show that advice, though. In particular, the `git clone` codepath _specifically_ asks for `init_db()` to be quiet, via the `INIT_DB_QUIET` flag. In preparation for showing users above-mentioned advice, let's change the function signature of `get_default_branch_name()` to accept the parameter `quiet`.

2020-09-22builtin/clone: avoid failure with GIT_DEFAULT_HASHbrian m. carlson1-2/+4
If a user is cloning a SHA-1 repository with GIT_DEFAULT_HASH set to "sha256", then we can end up with a repository where the repository format version is 0 but the extensions.objectformat key is set to "sha256". This is both wrong (the user has a SHA-1 repository) and nonfunctional (because the extension cannot be used in a v0 repository). This happens because in a clone, we initially set up the repository, and then change its algorithm based on what the remote side tells us it's using. We've initially set up the repository as SHA-256 in this case, and then later on reset the repository version without clearing the extension. We could just always set the extension in this case, but that would mean that our SHA-1 repositories weren't compatible with older Git versions, even though there's no reason why they shouldn't be. And we also don't want to initialize the repository as SHA-1 initially, since that means if we're cloning an empty repository, we'll have failed to honor the GIT_DEFAULT_HASH variable and will end up with a SHA-1 repository, not a SHA-256 repository. Neither of those are appealing, so let's tell the repository initialization code if we're doing a reinit like this, and if so, to clear the extension if we're using SHA-1. This makes sure we produce a valid and functional repository and doesn't break any of our other use cases.

2020-08-31init: make --separate-git-dir work from within linked worktreeEric Sunshine1-0/+24
The intention of `git init --separate-work-dir=<path>` is to move the .git/ directory to a location outside of the main worktree. When used within a linked worktree, however, rather than moving the .git/ directory as intended, it instead incorrectly moves the worktree's .git/worktrees/<id> directory to <path>, thus disconnecting the linked worktree from its parent repository and breaking the worktree in the process since its local .git file no longer points at a location at which it can find the object database. Fix this broken behavior. An intentional side-effect of this change is that it also closes a loophole not caught by ccf236a23a (init: disallow --separate-git-dir with bare repository, 2020-08-09) in which the check to prevent --separate-git-dir being used in conjunction with a bare repository was unable to detect the invalid combination when invoked from within a linked worktree. Therefore, add a test to verify that this loophole is closed, as well.

2020-08-31init: teach --separate-git-dir to repair linked worktreesEric Sunshine1-0/+2
A linked worktree's .git file is a "gitfile" pointing at the .git/worktrees/<id> directory within the repository. When `git init --separate-git-dir=<path>` is used on an existing repository to relocate the repository's .git/ directory to a different location, it neglects to update the .git files of linked worktrees, thus breaking the worktrees by making it impossible for them to locate the repository. Fix this by teaching --separate-git-dir to repair the .git file of each linked worktree to point at the new repository location.

2020-08-24Merge branch 'es/init-no-separate-git-dir-in-bare'Junio C Hamano1-0/+5
The purpose of "git init --separate-git-dir" is to initialize a new project with the repository separate from the working tree, or, in the case of an existing project, to move the repository (the .git/ directory) out of the working tree. It does not make sense to use --separate-git-dir with a bare repository for which there is no working tree, so disallow its use with bare repositories. * es/init-no-separate-git-dir-in-bare: init: disallow --separate-git-dir with bare repository
