We can't drop them because it's cmd_main(), which has a set prototype,
but the CGI interface does not do anything with such arguments.
Arguably we could detect them and complain. It's possible this could
detect misconfigurations or other mistakes, but:
- as far as I can tell common webservers like apache do not have any
mechanism to pass arguments to a CGI at all, so this isn't a mistake
one could even make
- it's possible that some obscure webserver might pass arguments, and
we'd break that case. I have no idea if such a webserver exists; the
CGI standard says only "The script is invoked in a system-defined
manner".
So probably it would not hurt to detect them, but it also is unlikely to
help anyone. Let's just mark them as unused, which retains the current

Move the declaration of the date.c functions from cache.h, and adjust

Similarly, the change to "builtin/{fast-import,show-branch,tag}.c"

include it.
We could simply include this new header in "cache.h", but as this

Migrate those run-command API users that assign directly to the "argv"

In these cases it did not make sense to further refactor these
callers, e.g. daemon.c could be made to construct the arguments closer
to handle(), but that would require moving the construction from its
cmd_main() and pass "argv" through two intermediate functions.
It would be possible for a change like this to introduce a regression
if we were doing:
cp.argv = argv;
argv[1] = "foo";
And changed the code, as is being done here, to:
strvec_pushv(&cp.args, argv);
argv[1] = "foo";

When a client requests the v2 protocol over HTTP, they set the
Git-Protocol header. Webservers will generally make that available to
our CGI as HTTP_GIT_PROTOCOL in the environment. However, that's not
sufficient for upload-pack, etc, to respect it; they look in
GIT_PROTOCOL (without the HTTP_ prefix).
Either the webserver or the CGI is responsible for relaying that HTTP
header into the GIT_PROTOCOL variable. Traditionally, our tests have
configured the webserver to do so, but that's a burden on the server
admin. We can make this work out of the box by having the http-backend
CGI copy the contents of HTTP_GIT_PROTOCOL to GIT_PROTOCOL.
There are no new tests here. By removing the SetEnvIf line from our
test Apache config, we're now relying on this behavior of http-backend
to trigger the v2 protocol there (and there are numerous tests that fail
if this doesn't work).
There is one subtlety here: we copy HTTP_GIT_PROTOCOL only if there is
no existing GIT_PROTOCOL variable. That leaves the webserver admin free
to override the client's decision if they choose. This is unlikely to be
useful in practice, but is more flexible. And indeed, it allows the
v2-to-v0 fallback test added in the previous commit to continue working.

The --advertise-refs documentation in git-upload-pack added in

been entirely true ever since v2 support was implemented in
e52449b672 (connect: request remote refs using v2, 2018-03-15). Under
v2 we don't advertise the refs at all, but rather dump the
capabilities header.
This option has always been an obscure internal implementation detail,
it wasn't even documented for git-receive-pack. Since it has exactly
one user let's rename it to --http-backend-info-refs, which is more
accurate and points the reader in the right direction. Let's also
cross-link this from the protocol v1 and v2 documentation.
I'm retaining a hidden --advertise-refs alias in case there's any
external users of this, and making both options hidden to the bash

The "advertise capabilities" mode of serve.c added in
ed10cb952d (serve: introduce git-serve, 2018-03-15) is only used by
the http-backend.c to call {upload,receive}-pack with the
--advertise-refs parameter. See 42526b478e (Add stateless RPC options
to upload-pack, receive-pack, 2009-10-30).
Let's just make cmd_upload_pack() take the two (v2) or three (v2)
parameters the the v2/v1 servicing functions need directly, and pass
those in via the function signature. The logic of whether daemon mode
is implied by the timeout belongs in the v1 function (only used
there).
Once we split up the "advertise v2 refs" from "serve v2 request" it
becomes clear that v2 never cared about those in combination. The only
time it mattered was for v1 to emit its ref advertisement, in that
case we wanted to emit the smart-http-only "no-done" capability.
Since we only do that in the --advertise-refs codepath let's just have
it set "do_done" itself in v1's upload_pack() just before send_ref(),
at that point --advertise-refs and --stateless-rpc in combination are
redundant (the only user is get_info_refs() in http-backend.c), so we
can just pass in --advertise-refs only.
Since we need to touch all the serve() and advertise_capabilities()
codepaths let's rename them to less clever and obvious names, it's
been suggested numerous times, the latest of which is [1]'s suggestion
for protocol_v2_serve_loop(). Let's go with that.

Code which split an argv_array call across multiple lines, like:
argv_array_pushl(&args, "one argument",
"another argument", "and more",
NULL);
was recently mechanically renamed to use strvec, which results in
mis-matched indentation like:
strvec_pushl(&args, "one argument",
"another argument", "and more",
NULL);
Let's fix these up to align the arguments with the opening paren. I did
this manually by sifting through the results of:
git jump grep 'strvec_.*,$'
and liberally applying my editor's auto-format. Most of the changes are
of the form shown above, though I also normalized a few that had
originally used a single-tab indentation (rather than our usual style of
aligning with the open paren). I also rewrapped a couple of obvious
cases (e.g., where previously too-long lines became short enough to fit
on one), but I wasn't aggressive about it. In cases broken to three or
more lines, the grouping of arguments is sometimes meaningful, and it
wasn't worth my time or reviewer time to ponder each case individually.

We eventually want to drop the argv_array name and just use strvec
consistently. There's no particular reason we have to do it all at once,
or care about interactions between converted and unconverted bits.
Because of our preprocessor compat layer, the names are interchangeable
to the compiler (so even a definition and declaration using different
names is OK).
This patch converts remaining files from the first half of the alphabet,
to keep the diff to a manageable size.
The conversion was done purely mechanically with:
git ls-files '*.c' '*.h' |
xargs perl -i -pe '
s/ARGV_ARRAY/STRVEC/g;
s/argv_array/strvec/g;
'
and then selectively staging files with "git add '[abcdefghjkl]*'".

http-backend reads whole input until EOF. However, the RFC 3875 specifies
that a script must read only as many bytes as specified by CONTENT_LENGTH

The return value of write_in_full() is either "-1", or the
requested number of bytes[1]. If we make a partial write
before seeing an error, we still return -1, not a partial
value. This goes back to f6aa66cb95 (write_in_full: really
write in full or return error on disk full., 2007-01-11).
So checking anything except "was the return value negative"
is pointless. And there are a couple of reasons not to do
so:
1. It can do a funny signed/unsigned comparison. If your
"len" is signed (e.g., a size_t) then the compiler will
promote the "-1" to its unsigned variant.
This works out for "!= len" (unless you really were
trying to write the maximum size_t bytes), but is a
bug if you check "< len" (an example of which was fixed
recently in config.c).
We should avoid promoting the mental model that you
need to check the length at all, so that new sites are
not tempted to copy us.
2. Checking for a negative value is shorter to type,
especially when the length is an expression.
3. Linus says so. In d34cf19b89 (Clean up write_in_full()
users, 2007-01-11), right after the write_in_full()
semantics were changed, he wrote:
I really wish every "write_in_full()" user would just
check against "<0" now, but this fixes the nasty and
stupid ones.
Appeals to authority aside, this makes it clear that
writing it this way does not have an intentional
benefit. It's a historical curiosity that we never
bothered to clean up (and which was undoubtedly
cargo-culted into new sites).
So let's convert these obviously-correct cases (this
includes write_str_in_full(), which is just a wrapper for
write_in_full()).
[1] A careful reader may notice there is one way that
write_in_full() can return a different value. If we ask
write() to write N bytes and get a return value that is
_larger_ than N, we could return a larger total. But
besides the fact that this would imply a totally broken
version of write(), it would already invoke undefined
behavior. Our internal remaining counter is an unsigned
size_t, which means that subtracting too many byte will
wrap it around to a very large number. So we'll instantly
begin reading off the end of the buffer, trying to write
gigabytes (or petabytes) of data.

Git's source code assumes that unsigned long is at least as precise as
time_t. Which is incorrect, and causes a lot of problems, in particular
where unsigned long is only 32-bit (notably on Windows, even in 64-bit
versions).
So let's just use a more appropriate data type instead. In preparation
for this, we introduce the new `timestamp_t` data type.
By necessity, this is a very, very large patch, as it has to replace all
timestamps' data type in one go.
As we will use a data type that is not necessarily identical to `time_t`,
we need to be very careful to use `time_t` whenever we interact with the
system functions, and `timestamp_t` everywhere else.

Avoid waking up the readers for unnecessary context switches for
each line of header data being written, as all the headers are
written in short succession.
It is unlikely any HTTP/1.x server would want to read a CGI
response one-line-at-a-time and trickle each to the client.
Instead, I'd expect HTTP servers want to minimize syscall and
TCP/IP framing overhead by trying to send all of its response
headers in a single syscall or even combining the headers and
first chunk of the body with MSG_MORE or writev.
Verified by strace-ing response parsing on the CGI side.

This should be part of every program, as otherwise users do
not get translated error messages. However, some external
commands forgot to do so (e.g., git-credential-store). This
fixes them, and eliminates the repeated code in programs
that did remember to use it.

Every program which links against libgit.a must call this
function, or risk hitting an assert() in system_path() that
checks whether we have configured argv0_path (though only
when RUNTIME_PREFIX is defined, so essentially only on
Windows).
Looking at the diff, you can see that putting it into the
common main() saves us having to do it individually in each
of the external commands. But what you can't see are the
cases where we _should_ have been doing so, but weren't
(e.g., git-credential-store, and all of the t/helper test
programs).
This has been an accident-waiting-to-happen for a long time,
but wasn't triggered until recently because it involves one
of those programs actually calling system_path(). That
happened with git-credential-store in v2.8.0 with ae5f677
(lazily load core.sharedrepository, 2016-03-11). The
program:
- takes a lock file, which...
- opens a tempfile, which...
- calls adjust_shared_perm to fix permissions, which...
- lazy-loads the config (as of ae5f677), which...
- calls system_path() to find the location of
/etc/gitconfig
On systems with RUNTIME_PREFIX, this means credential-store
reliably hits that assert() and cannot be used.
We never noticed in the test suite, because we set
GIT_CONFIG_NOSYSTEM there, which skips the system_path()
lookup entirely. But if we were to tweak git_config() to
find /etc/gitconfig even when we aren't going to open it,
then the test suite shows multiple failures (for
credential-store, and for some other test helpers). I didn't
include that tweak here because it's way too specific to
this particular call to be worth carrying around what is
essentially dead code.
The implementation is fairly straightforward, with one
exception: there is exactly one caller (git.c) that actually
cares about the result of the function, and not the
side-effect of setting up argv0_path. We can accommodate
that by simply replacing the value of argv[0] in the array
we hand down to cmd_main().
