As part of the security bug-fix releases v2.39.4, ..., v2.45.1, I
introduced logic to safeguard `git clone` from running hooks that were
installed _during_ the clone operation.
The rationale was that Git's CVE-2024-32002, CVE-2021-21300,
CVE-2019-1354, CVE-2019-1353, CVE-2019-1352, and CVE-2019-1349 should
have been low-severity vulnerabilities but were elevated to
critical/high severity by the attack vector that allows a weakness where
files inside `.git/` can be inadvertently written during a `git clone`
to escalate to a Remote Code Execution attack by virtue of installing a
malicious `post-checkout` hook that Git will then run at the end of the
operation without giving the user a chance to see what code is executed.
Unfortunately, Git LFS uses a similar strategy to install its own
`post-checkout` hook during a `git clone`; In fact, Git LFS is
installing four separate hooks while running the `smudge` filter.
While this pattern is probably in want of being improved by introducing
better support in Git for Git LFS and other tools wishing to register
hooks to be run at various stages of Git's commands, let's undo the
clone protections to unbreak Git LFS-enabled clones.
This reverts commit 8db1e8743c (clone: prevent hooks from running
during a clone, 2024-03-28).

This topic addresses two CVEs:
- CVE-2024-32020:
Local clones may end up hardlinking files into the target repository's
object database when source and target repository reside on the same
disk. If the source repository is owned by a different user, then
those hardlinked files may be rewritten at any point in time by the
untrusted user.
- CVE-2024-32021:
When cloning a local source repository that contains symlinks via the
filesystem, Git may create hardlinks to arbitrary user-readable files
on the same filesystem as the target repository in the objects/
directory.

Critical security issues typically combine relatively common
vulnerabilities such as case confusion in file paths with other
weaknesses in order to raise the severity of the attack.
One such weakness that has haunted the Git project in many a
submodule-related CVE is that any hooks that are found are executed
during a clone operation. Examples are the `post-checkout` and
`fsmonitor` hooks.
However, Git's design calls for hooks to be disabled by default, as only
disabled example hooks are copied over from the templates in
`<prefix>/share/git-core/templates/`.
As a defense-in-depth measure, let's prevent those hooks from running.
Obviously, administrators can choose to drop enabled hooks into the
template directory, though, _and_ it is also possible to override
`core.hooksPath`, in which case the new check needs to be disabled.

When performing a local clone of a repository we end up either copying
or hardlinking the source repository into the target repository. This is
significantly more performant than if we were to use git-upload-pack(1)
and git-fetch-pack(1) to create the new repository and preserves both
disk space and compute time.
Unfortunately though, performing such a local clone of a repository that
is not owned by the current user is inherently unsafe:
- It is possible that source files get swapped out underneath us while
we are copying or hardlinking them. While we do perform some checks
here to assert that we hardlinked the expected file, they cannot
reliably thwart time-of-check-time-of-use (TOCTOU) style races. It
is thus possible for an adversary to make us copy or hardlink
unexpected files into the target directory.
Ideally, we would address this by starting to use openat(3P),
fstatat(3P) and friends. Due to platform compatibility with Windows
we cannot easily do that though. Furthermore, the scope of these
fixes would likely be quite broad and thus not fit for an embargoed
security release.
- Even if we handled TOCTOU-style races perfectly, hardlinking files
owned by a different user into the target repository is not a good
idea in general. It is possible for an adversary to rewrite those
files to contain whatever data they want even after the clone has
completed.
Address these issues by completely refusing local clones of a repository
that is not owned by the current user. This reuses our existing infra we
have in place via `ensure_valid_ownership()` and thus allows a user to
override the safety guard by adding the source repository path to the
"safe.directory" configuration.
This addresses CVE-2024-32020.

When performing local clones with hardlinks we refuse to copy source
files which are symlinks as a mitigation for CVE-2022-39253. This check
can be raced by an adversary though by changing the file to a symlink
after we have checked it.
Fix the issue by checking whether the hardlinked destination file
matches the source file and abort in case it doesn't.
This addresses CVE-2024-32021.

When a user performs a local clone without `--no-local`, then we end up
copying the source repository into the target repository directly. To
optimize this even further, we try to hardlink files into place instead
of copying data over, which helps both disk usage and speed.
There is an important edge case in this context though, namely when we
try to hardlink symlinks from the source repository into the target
repository. Depending on both platform and filesystem the resulting
behaviour here can be different:
- On macOS and NetBSD, calling link(3P) with a symlink target creates
a hardlink to the file pointed to by the symlink.
- On Linux, calling link(3P) instead creates a hardlink to the symlink
itself.
To unify this behaviour, 36596fd2df (clone: better handle symlinked
files at .git/objects/, 2019-07-10) introduced logic to resolve symlinks
before we try to link(3P) files. Consequently, the new behaviour was to
always create a hard link to the target of the symlink on all platforms.
Eventually though, we figured out that following symlinks like this can
cause havoc when performing a local clone of a malicious repository,
which resulted in CVE-2022-39253. This issue was fixed via 6f054f9fb3
(builtin/clone.c: disallow `--local` clones with symlinks, 2022-07-28),
by refusing symlinks in the source repository.
But even though we now shouldn't ever link symlinks anymore, the code
that resolves symlinks still exists. In the best case the code does not
end up doing anything because there are no symlinks anymore. In the
worst case though this can be abused by an adversary that rewrites the
source file after it has been checked not to be a symlink such that it
actually is a symlink when we call link(3P). Thus, it is still possible
to recreate CVE-2022-39253 due to this time-of-check-time-of-use bug.
Remove the call to `realpath()`. This doesn't yet address the actual
vulnerability, which will be handled in a subsequent commit.

cache.h's nature of a dumping ground of includes prevented it from
being included in some compat/ files, forcing us into a workaround
of having a double forward declaration of the read_in_full() function
(see commit 14086b0a13 ("compat/pread.c: Add a forward declaration to
fix a warning", 2007-11-17)). Now that we have moved functions like
read_in_full() from cache.h to wrapper.h, and wrapper.h isn't littered
with unrelated and scary #defines, get rid of the extra forward
declaration and just have compat/pread.c include wrapper.h.

6f054f9fb3 (builtin/clone.c: disallow --local clones with
symlinks, 2022-07-28) gives a good error message when "git clone
--local" fails when the repo to clone has symlinks in
"$GIT_DIR/objects". In bffc762f87 (dir-iterator: prevent top-level
symlinks without FOLLOW_SYMLINKS, 2023-01-24), we later extended this
restriction to the case where "$GIT_DIR/objects" is itself a symlink,
but we didn't update the error message then - bffc762f87's tests show
that we print a generic "failed to start iterator over" message.
This is exacerbated by the fact that Documentation/git-clone.txt
mentions neither restriction, so users are left wondering if this is
intentional behavior or not.
Fix this by adding a check to builtin/clone.c: when doing a local clone,
perform an extra check to see if "$GIT_DIR/objects" is a symlink, and if
so, assume that that was the reason for the failure and report the
relevant information. Ideally, dir_iterator_begin() would tell us that
the real failure reason is the presence of the symlink, but (as far as I
can tell) there isn't an appropriate errno value for that.
Also, update Documentation/git-clone.txt to reflect that this
restriction exists.

A user could prepare an empty repository and set it to use SHA256 as
the object format. The new repository created by "git clone" from
such a repository however would not record that it is expecting
objects in the same SHA256 format. This works as expected if the
source repository is not empty.
Just like we started copying the name of the primary branch from the
remote repository even if it is unborn in 3d8314f8 (clone: propagate
empty remote HEAD even with other branches, 2022-07-07), lift the
code that records the object format out of the block executed only
when cloning from an instantiated repository, so that it works also
when cloning from an empty repository.

Bundle providers may organize their bundle lists in a way that is
intended to improve incremental fetches, not just initial clones.
However, they do need to state that they have organized with that in
mind, or else the client will not expect to save time by downloading
bundles after the initial clone. This is done by specifying a
bundle.heuristic value.
There are two types of bundle lists: those at a static URI and those
that are advertised from a Git remote over protocol v2.
The new fetch.bundleURI config value applies for static bundle URIs that
are not advertised over protocol v2. If the user specifies a static URI
via 'git clone --bundle-uri', then Git can set this config as a reminder
for future 'git fetch' operations to check the bundle list before
connecting to the remote(s).
For lists provided over protocol v2, we will want to take a different
approach and create a property of the remote itself by creating a
remote.<id>.* type config key. That is not implemented in this change.
Later changes will update 'git fetch' to consume this option.

In the previous commit, t5619 demonstrates an issue where two calls to
`get_repo_path()` could trick Git into using its local clone mechanism
in conjunction with a non-local transport.
That sequence is:
- the starting state is that the local path https:/example.com/foo is a
symlink that points to ../../../.git/modules/foo. So it's dangling.
- get_repo_path() sees that no such path exists (because it's
dangling), and thus we do not canonicalize it into an absolute path
- because we're using --separate-git-dir, we create .git/modules/foo.
Now our symlink is no longer dangling!
- we pass the url to transport_get(), which sees it as an https URL.
- we call get_repo_path() again, on the url. This second call was
introduced by f38aa83f9a (use local cloning if insteadOf makes a
local URL, 2014-07-17). The idea is that we want to pull the url
fresh from the remote.c API, because it will apply any aliases.
And of course now it sees that there is a local file, which is a
mismatch with the transport we already selected.
The issue in the above sequence is calling `transport_get()` before
deciding whether or not the repository is indeed local, and not passing
in an absolute path if it is local.
This is reminiscent of a similar bug report in [1], where it was
suggested to perform the `insteadOf` lookup earlier. Taking that
approach may not be as straightforward, since the intent is to store the
original URL in the config, but to actually fetch from the insteadOf
one, so conflating the two early on is a non-starter.
Note: we pass the path returned by `get_repo_path(remote->url[0])`,
which should be the same as `repo_name` (aside from any `insteadOf`
rewrites).
We *could* pass `absolute_pathdup()` of the same argument, which
86521acaca (Bring local clone's origin URL in line with that of a remote
clone, 2008-09-01) indicates may differ depending on the presence of
".git/" for a non-bare repo. That matters for forming relative submodule
paths, but doesn't matter for the second call, since we're just feeding
it to the transport code, which is fine either way.

Bundle URIs part 4.
* ds/bundle-uri-4:
clone: unbundle the advertised bundles
bundle-uri: download bundles from an advertised list
bundle-uri: allow relative URLs in bundle lists
strbuf: introduce strbuf_strip_file_from_path()
bundle-uri: serve bundle.* keys from config
bundle-uri client: add helper for testing server
transport: rename got_remote_heads
bundle-uri client: add boolean transfer.bundleURI setting
clone: request the 'bundle-uri' command when available
t: create test harness for 'bundle-uri' command
protocol v2: add server-side "bundle-uri" skeleton
A previous change introduced the transport methods to acquire a bundle
list from the 'bundle-uri' protocol v2 command, when advertised _and_
when the client has chosen to enable the feature.
Teach Git to download and unbundle the data advertised by those bundles
during 'git clone'. This takes place between the ref advertisement and
the object data download, and stateful connections will linger while
the client downloads bundles. In the future, we should consider closing
the remote connection during this process.
Also, since the --bundle-uri option exists, we do not want to mix the
advertised bundles with the user-specified bundles.

Set up all the needed client parts of the 'bundle-uri' protocol v2
command, without actually doing anything with the bundle URIs.
If the server says it supports 'bundle-uri' teach Git to issue the
'bundle-uri' command after the 'ls-refs' during 'git clone'. The
returned key=value pairs are passed to the bundle list code which is
tested using a different ingest mechanism in t5750-bundle-uri-parse.sh.
At this point, Git does nothing with that bundle list. It will not
download any of the bundles. That will come in a later change after
these protocol bits are finalized.
The no-op client is initially used only by 'git clone' to test the basic
functionality, and eventually will bootstrap the initial download of Git
objects during a fresh clone. The bundle URI client will not be
integrated into other fetches until a mechanism is created to select a
subset of bundles for download.

Apply "index-compatibility.pending.cocci" rule to "builtin/*", but
exclude those where we conflict with in-flight changes.
As a result some of them end up using only "the_index", so let's have
them use the more narrow "USE_THE_INDEX_VARIABLE" rather than
"USE_THE_INDEX_COMPATIBILITY_MACROS".
Manual changes not made by coccinelle, that were squashed in:
* Whitespace-wrap argument lists for repo_hold_locked_index(),
repo_read_index_preload() and repo_refresh_and_write_index(), in cases
where the line became too long after the transformation.
* Change "refresh_cache()" to "refresh_index()" in a comment in
"builtin/update-index.c".
* For those whose call was followed by perror("<macro-name>"), change
it to perror("<function-name>"), referring to the new function.

Replace the remaining calls of run_command_v_opt() with run_command()
calls and explict struct child_process variables. This is more verbose,
but not by much overall. The code becomes more flexible, e.g. it's easy
to extend to conditionally add a new argument.
Then remove the now unused function and its own flag names, simplifying
the run-command API.
