Junio C Hamano	d79374c7b5	[PATCH] daemon.c and path.enter_repo(): revamp path validation. The whitelist of git-daemon is checked against return value from enter_repo(), and enter_repo() used to return the value obtained from getcwd() to avoid directory aliasing issues as discussed earier (mid October 2005). Unfortunately, it did not go well as we hoped. For example, /pub on a kernel.org public machine is a symlink to its real mountpoint, and it is understandable that the administrator does not want to adjust the whitelist every time /pub needs to point at a different partition for storage allcation or whatever reasons. Being able to keep using /pub/scm as the whitelist is a desirable property. So this version of enter_repo() reports what it used to chdir() and validate, but does not use getcwd() to canonicalize the directory name. When it sees a user relative path ~user/path, it internally resolves it to try chdir() there, but it still reports ~user/path (possibly after appending .git if allowed to do so, in which case it would report ~user/path.git). What this means is that if a whitelist wants to allow a user relative path, it needs to say "~" (for all users) or list user home directories like "~alice" "~bob". And no, you cannot say /home if the advertised way to access user home directories are ~alice,~bob, etc. The whole point of this is to avoid unnecessary aliasing issues. Anyway, because of this, daemon needs to do a bit more work to guard itself. Namely, it needs to make sure that the accessor does not try to exploit its leading path match rule by inserting /../ in the middle or hanging /.. at the end. I resurrected the belts and suspender paranoia code HPA did for this purpose. This check cannot be done in the enter_repo() unconditionally, because there are valid callers of enter_repo() that want to honor /../; authorized users coming over ssh to run send-pack and fetch-pack should be allowed to do so.

Junio C Hamano	1644162ad5	Check repository format version in enter_repo(). After daemon, upload-pack and receive-pack find out where the git directory is and chdir() there, make sure that repository is in a format we understand, after putenv("GIT_DIR=.") so that it knows to pick up the configuration file from there.

Junio C Hamano	e0a87193d3	Fix "do not DWIM" patch to enter_repo" We wanted --strict to mean "do not DWIM", but the code required to see absolute path. daemon does its own path verification and chdirs to the verified repository, so enter_repo() called from upload-pack will always enter ".". Requiring absolute path does not make any sense. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>	19 years ago
Timo Hirvonen	bd22c904a0	Fix sparse warnings Make some functions static and convert func() function prototypes to to func(void). Fix declaration after statement, missing declaration and redundant declaration warnings. Signed-off-by: Timo Hirvonen <tihirvon@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>	19 years ago
Junio C Hamano	0870ca7fab	Do not DWIM in userpath library under strict mode. This should force git-daemon administrator's job a bit harder because the exact paths need to be given in the whitelist, but at the same time makes the auditing easier. This moves validate_symref() from refs.c to path.c, because we need to link path.c with git-daemon for its "enter_repo()", but we do not want to link the daemon with the rest of git libraries and its requirements.

Andreas Ericsson	54f4b87454	Library code for user-relative paths, take three. This patch provides the work-horse of the user-relative paths feature, using Linus' idea of a blind chdir() and getcwd() which makes it remarkably simple.

Junio C Hamano	a9ab586a5d	Retire support for old environment variables. We have deprecated the old environment variable names for quite a while and now it's time to remove them. Gone are: SHA1_FILE_DIRECTORIES AUTHOR_DATE AUTHOR_EMAIL AUTHOR_NAME COMMIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL COMMIT_AUTHOR_NAME SHA1_FILE_DIRECTORY Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>	19 years ago
Jason Riedy	c7c81b3a51	Fix ?: statements. Omitting the first branch in ?: is a GNU extension. Cute, but not supported by other compilers. Replaced mostly by explicit tests. Calls to getenv() simply are repeated on non-GNU compilers. Signed-off-by: Jason Riedy <ejr@cs.berkeley.edu>	20 years ago
