Joey Salazar	9d336655ba	doc: fix naming of response-end-pkt Git Protocol version 2[1] defines 0002 as a Message Packet that indicates the end of a response for stateless connections. Change the naming of the 0002 Packet to 'Response End' to match the parsing introduced in Wireshark's MR !1922 for consistency. A subsequent MR in Wireshark will address additional mismatches.

Jonathan Tan	59e1205d16	ls-refs: report unborn targets of symrefs When cloning, we choose the default branch based on the remote HEAD. But if there is no remote HEAD reported (which could happen if the target of the remote HEAD is unborn), we'll fall back to using our local init.defaultBranch. Traditionally this hasn't been a big deal, because most repos used "master" as the default. But these days it is likely to cause confusion if the server and client implementations choose different values (e.g., if the remote started with "main", we may choose "master" locally, create commits there, and then the user is surprised when they push to "master" and not "main"). To solve this, the remote needs to communicate the target of the HEAD symref, even if it is unborn, and "git clone" needs to use this information. Currently, symrefs that have unborn targets (such as in this case) are not communicated by the protocol. Teach Git to advertise and support the "unborn" feature in "ls-refs" (by default, this is advertised, but server administrators may turn this off through the lsrefs.unborn config). This feature indicates that "ls-refs" supports the "unborn" argument; when it is specified, "ls-refs" will send the HEAD symref with the name of its unborn target. This change is only for protocol v2. A similar change for protocol v0 would require independent protocol design (there being no analogous position to signal support for "unborn") and client-side plumbing of the data required, so the scope of this patch set is limited to protocol v2. The client side will be updated to use this in a subsequent commit. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Tan <jonathantanmy@google.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	4 years ago

Denton Liu	b0df0c16ea	stateless-connect: send response end packet Currently, remote-curl acts as a proxy and blindly forwards packets between an HTTP server and fetch-pack. In the case of a stateless RPC connection where the connection is terminated before the transaction is complete, remote-curl will blindly forward the packets before waiting on more input from fetch-pack. Meanwhile, fetch-pack will read the transaction and continue reading, expecting more input to continue the transaction. This results in a deadlock between the two processes. This can be seen in the following command which does not terminate: $ git -c protocol.version=2 clone https://github.com/git/git.git --shallow-since=20151012 Cloning into 'git'... whereas the v1 version does terminate as expected: $ git -c protocol.version=1 clone https://github.com/git/git.git --shallow-since=20151012 Cloning into 'git'... fatal: the remote end hung up unexpectedly Instead of blindly forwarding packets, make remote-curl insert a response end packet after proxying the responses from the remote server when using stateless_connect(). On the RPC client side, ensure that each response ends as described. A separate control packet is chosen because we need to be able to differentiate between what the remote server sends and remote-curl's control packets. By ensuring in the remote-curl code that a server cannot send response end packets, we prevent a malicious server from being able to perform a denial of service attack in which they spoof a response end packet and cause the described deadlock to happen.

Mark Rushakoff	24966cd982	doc: fix repeated words Inspired by `21416f0a07` ("restore: fix typo in docs", 2019-08-03), I ran "git grep -E '(\b[a-zA-Z]+) \1\b' -- Documentation/" to find other cases where words were duplicated, e.g. "the the", and in most cases removed one of the repeated words. There were many false positives by this grep command, including deliberate repeated words like "really really" or valid uses of "that that" which I left alone, of course. I also did not correct any of the legitimate, accidentally repeated words in old RelNotes.

SZEDER Gábor	b373e4d29b	Documentation/technical/protocol-v2.txt: fix formatting Asciidoctor versions v1.5.7 or later print the following warning while building the documentation: ASCIIDOC technical/protocol-v2.html asciidoctor: WARNING: protocol-v2.txt: line 38: unterminated listing block This highlights an issue (even with older Asciidoctor versions) where the 'Initial Client Request' header is not rendered as a header but in monospace. I'm not sure what exactly causes this issue and why it's an issue only with this particular header, but all headers in 'protocol-v2.txt' are written like this: Initial Client Request ------------------------ i.e. the header itself is indented by a space, and the "underline" is two characters longer than the header. Dropping that indentation and making the length of the underline match the length of the header apparently fixes this issue. While at it, adjust all other headers 'protocol-v2.txt' as well, to match the style we use everywhere else. The page rendered with AsciiDoc doesn't have this formatting issue.

Jonathan Tan	0bbc0bc574	{fetch,upload}-pack: sideband v2 fetch response Currently, a response to a fetch request has sideband support only while the packfile is being sent, meaning that the server cannot send notices until the start of the packfile. Extend sideband support in protocol v2 fetch responses to the whole response. upload-pack will advertise it if the uploadpack.allowsidebandall configuration variable is set, and fetch-pack will automatically request it if advertised. If the sideband is to be used throughout the whole response, upload-pack will use it to send errors instead of prefixing a PKT-LINE payload with "ERR ". This will be tested in a subsequent patch.

Josh Steadmon	87c2d9d310	filter-options: expand scaled numbers When communicating with a remote server or a subprocess, use expanded numbers rather than numbers with scaling suffix in the object filter spec (e.g. "limit:blob=1k" becomes "limit:blob=1024"). Update the protocol docs to note that clients should always perform this expansion, to allow for more compatibility between server implementations.

Brandon Williams	516e2b76bd	upload-pack: implement ref-in-want Currently, while performing packfile negotiation, clients are only allowed to specify their desired objects using object ids. This causes a vulnerability to failure when an object turns non-existent during negotiation, which may happen if, for example, the desired repository is provided by multiple Git servers in a load-balancing arrangement and there exists replication delay. In order to eliminate this vulnerability, implement the ref-in-want feature for the 'fetch' command in protocol version 2. This feature enables the 'fetch' command to support requests in the form of ref names through a new "want-ref <ref>" parameter. At the conclusion of negotiation, the server will send a list of all of the wanted references (as provided by "want-ref" lines) in addition to the generated packfile.

Jonathan Tan	ba95710a3b	{fetch,upload}-pack: support filter in protocol v2 The fetch-pack/upload-pack protocol v2 was developed independently of the filter parameter (used in partial fetches), thus it did not include support for it. Add support for the filter parameter. Like in the legacy protocol, the server advertises and supports "filter" only if uploadpack.allowfilter is configured. Like in the legacy protocol, the client continues with a warning if "--filter" is specified, but the server does not advertise it.

Brandon Williams	ed10cb952d	serve: introduce git-serve Introduce git-serve, the base server for protocol version 2. Protocol version 2 is intended to be a replacement for Git's current wire protocol. The intention is that it will be a simpler, less wasteful protocol which can evolve over time. Protocol version 2 improves upon version 1 by eliminating the initial ref advertisement. In its place a server will export a list of capabilities and commands which it supports in a capability advertisement. A client can then request that a particular command be executed by providing a number of capabilities and command specific parameters. At the completion of a command, a client can request that another command be executed or can terminate the connection by sending a flush packet.
