A corrupt Subversion-format delta can request reads past the end of
the preimage. Set sliding_view::max_off so such corruption is caught
when it appears rather than blocking in an impossible-to-fulfill
read() when input is coming from a socket or pipe.

Handle input in Subversion's dumpfile format, version 3. This is the
format produced by "svnrdump dump" and "svnadmin dump --deltas", and
the main difference between v3 dumpfiles and the dumpfiles already
handled is that these can include nodes whose properties and text are
expressed relative to some other node.
To handle such nodes, we find which node the text and properties are
based on, handle its property changes, use the cat-blob command to
request the basis blob from the fast-import backend, use the
svndiff0_apply() helper to apply the text delta on the fly, writing
output to a temporary file, and then measure that postimage file's
length and write its content to the fast-import stream.
The temporary postimage file is shared between delta-using nodes to
avoid some file system overhead.
The svn-fe interface needs to be more complicated to accomodate the
backward flow of information from the fast-import backend to svn-fe.
The backflow fd is not needed when parsing streams without deltas,
though, so existing scripts using svn-fe on v2 dumps should
continue to work.
NEEDSWORK: generalize interface so caller sets the backflow fd, close
temporary file before exiting

On systems where the local time and file modification time may be out of

During a merge module_list returns conflicting submodules several times
(stage 1,2,3) which caused the submodules to be used multiple times in
git submodule init, sync, update and status command.
There are 5 callers of module_list; they all read (mode, sha1, stage,
path) tuple, and most of them care only about path. As a first level
approximation, it should be Ok (in the sense that it does not make things
worse than it currently is) to filter the duplicate paths from module_list
output, but some callers should change their behaviour when the merge in
the superproject still has conflicts.
Notice the higher-stage entries, and emit only one record from
module_list, but while doing so, mark the entry with "U" (not [0-3]) in
the $stage field and null out the SHA-1 part, as the object name for the
lowest stage does not give any useful information to the caller, and this
way any caller that uses the object name would hopefully barf. Then
update the codepaths for each subcommands this way:
- "update" should not touch the submodule repository, because we do not
know what commit should be checked out yet.
- "status" reports the conflicting submodules as 'U000...000' and does
not recurse into them (we might later want to make it recurse).
- The command called by "foreach" may want to do whatever it wants to do
by noticing the merged status in the superproject itself, so feed the
path to it from module_list as before, but only once per submodule.
- "init" and "sync" are unlikely things to do while the superproject is
still not merged, but as long as a submodule is there in $path, there
is no point skipping it. It might however want to take the merged
status of .gitmodules into account, but that is outside of the scope of
this topic.

git-remote currently has one option, "--mirror", which sets
up mirror configuration which can be used for either
fetching or pushing. It looks like this:
[remote "mirror"]
url = wherever
fetch = +refs/*:refs/*
mirror = true
However, a remote like this can be dangerous and confusing.
Specifically:
1. If you issue the wrong command, it can be devastating.
You are not likely to "push" when you meant to "fetch",
but "git remote update" will try to fetch it, even if
you intended the remote only for pushing. In either
case, the results can be quite destructive. An
unintended push will overwrite or delete remote refs,
and an unintended fetch can overwrite local branches.
2. The tracking setup code can produce confusing results.
The fetch refspec above means that "git checkout -b new
master" will consider refs/heads/master to come from
the remote "mirror", even if you only ever intend to
push to the mirror. It will set up the "new" branch to
track mirror's refs/heads/master.
3. The push code tries to opportunistically update
tracking branches. If you "git push mirror foo:bar",
it will see that we are updating mirror's
refs/heads/bar, which corresponds to our local
refs/heads/bar, and will update our local branch.
To solve this, we split the concept into "push mirrors" and
"fetch mirrors". Push mirrors set only remote.*.mirror,
solving (2) and (3), and making an accidental fetch write
only into FETCH_HEAD. Fetch mirrors set only the fetch
refspec, meaning an accidental push will not force-overwrite
or delete refs on the remote end.
The new syntax is "--mirror=<fetch|push>". For
compatibility, we keep "--mirror" as-is, setting up both
types simultaneously.

t0081 creates several background processes that write to a fifo and
then go to sleep for a while (so the reader of the fifo does not see
EOF).
Each background process is made in a curly-braced block in the shell,
and after we are done reading from the fifo, we use "kill $!" to kill
it off.
For a simple, single-command process, this works reliably and kills
the child sleep process. But for more complex commands like
"make_some_output && sleep", the results are less predictable. When
executing under bash, we end up with a subshell that gets killed by
the $! but leaves the sleep process still alive.
This is bad not only for process hygeine (we are leaving random sleep
processes to expire after a while), but also interacts badly with the
"prove" command. When prove executes a test, it does not realize the
test is done when it sees SIGCHLD, but rather waits until the test's
stdout pipe is closed. The orphaned sleep process may keep that pipe
open via test-lib's file descriptor 5, causing prove to hang for 100
seconds.
The solution is to explicitly use a subshell and to exec the final
sleep process, so that when we "kill $!" we get the process id of the
sleep process.
[jn: original patch by Jeff had some additional bits:
1. Wrap the "kill" in a test_when_finished, since we want
to clean up the process whether the test succeeds or not.
2. The "kill" is part of our && chain for test success. It
probably won't fail, but it can if the process has
expired before we manage to kill it. So let's mark it
as OK to fail.
I'm postponing that for now.]

The region copied is allowed to run past the end of the existing

than calling memcpy or memmove. This allows copyfrom_target to be

Each window of an svndiff0-format delta includes a section for novel
text to be copied to the postimage (in the order it appears in the
window, possibly interspersed with other data).
Slurp in this data when encountering it. It is not actually necessary
to do so --- it would be just as easy to copy from delta to output
as part of interpreting the relevant instructions --- but this way,
the code that interprets svndiff0 instructions can proceed very
quickly because it does not require I/O.
Subversion's svndiff0 parser rejects deltas that do not consume all
the novel text that was provided. Omit that check for now so we can
test the new functionality right away, rather than waiting to learn
instructions that consume data.
Do check for truncated data sections. Subversion's parser rejects
deltas that end in the middle of a declared novel-text section, so it
should be safe for us to reject them, too.

The source view offset heading each svndiff0 window represents a

source view length, it dictates to the delta applier what portion of
the preimage instructions will refer to. Read that portion right away
using the sliding window code.
Maybe some day we will use mmap to read data more lazily.
Subversion's implementation tolerates source view offsets pointing
past the end of the preimage file but we do not, for simplicity.
This does not teach the delta applier to read instructions or copy
data from the source view. Deltas that could produce nonempty output

source view length
output length
instructions length
auxiliary data length
Parse it. The result is not usable for deltas with nonempty postimage

A delta in the subversion delta (svndiff0) format consists of the
magic bytes SVN\0 followed by a sequence of windows of a certain well

Add an svndiff0_apply function and test-svn-fe -d commandline tool to
parse such a delta in the special case of not including any windows.
Later patches will add features to turn this into a fully functional
delta applier for svn-fe to use to parse the streams produced by
"svnrdump dump" and "svnadmin dump --deltas".
The content of symlinks starts with the word "link " in Subversion's
worldview, so we need to be able to prepend that text to input for the
sake of delta application. So initialization of the input state of
the delta preimage is left to the calling program, giving callers a
chance to seed the buffer with text of their choice.

svn-fe errors out on revision 59151 of the ASF repository:

uninitialized data when a property list ends early and unfortunately
this test does not distinguish between "foo" followed by EOF and the
string "foo\0bar\0baz".
Fix it by using buffer_read_binary to read to a strbuf and checking
the actual length read. Most consumers of properties still use
C-style strings, so in practice an author or log message with embedded
NULs will be truncated, but a least this way svn-fe won't error out
(fixing the regression).

2. Update the index with the new content, and check it out

We currently do them in this order. However, (2) is the step
that is much more likely to fail, since it can be blocked by
things like untracked working tree files. When it does, the
merge fails and we are left with an empty index but an
updated HEAD.
This patch switches the order, so that a failure in updating
the index leaves us unchanged. Of course, a failure in

The git-new-workdir script in contrib/ makes a new work tree by sharing
many subdirectories of the .git directory with the original repository.
When rerere.enabled is set in the original repository, but the user has
not encountered any conflicts yet, the original repository may not yet
have .git/rr-cache directory.
When rerere wants to run in a new work tree created from such a young
original repository, it fails to mkdir(2) .git/rr-cache that is a symlink
to a yet-to-be-created directory.
There are three possible approaches to this:
- A naive solution is not to create a symlink in the git-new-workdir
script to a directory the original does not have (yet). This is not a
solution, as we tend to lazily create subdirectories of .git/, and
having rerere.enabled configuration set is a strong indication that the
user _wants_ to have this lazy creation to happen;
- We could always create .git/rr-cache upon repository creation. This is
tempting but will not help people with existing repositories.
- Detect this case by seeing that mkdir(2) failed with EEXIST, checking
that the path is a symlink, and try running mkdir(2) on the link
target.
This patch solves the issue by doing the third one.
Strictly speaking, this is incomplete. It does not attempt to handle
relative symbolic link that points into the original repository, but this
is good enough to help people who use contrib/workdir/git-new-workdir
script.
