This function uses Windows' system tool `attrib` to determine the state
of the hidden flag of a file or directory.
We should not actually expect the first `attrib.exe` in the PATH to
be the one we are looking for. Or that it is in the PATH, for that
matter.
Let's use the full path to the tool instead.

The `is_hidden` function can be used (only on Windows) to determine
whether a directory or file have their `hidden` flag set.
This function is duplicated between two test scripts. It is better to
move it into `test-lib-functions.sh` so that it is reused.

The code path in packetize() for reading stdin needs to handle NUL
bytes, so we can't rely on shell variables. However, the current code
takes a whopping 4 processes and uses a temporary file. We can do this
much more simply and efficiently by using a single perl invocation (and
we already rely on perl in the matching depacketize() function).
We'll keep the non-stdin code path as it is, since that uses zero extra
processes.

The packetize() function takes its input on stdin, and requires 4
separate sub-processes to format a simple string. We can do much better
by getting the length via the shell's "${#packet}" construct. The one
caveat is that the shell can't put a NUL into a variable, so we'll have
to continue to provide the stdin form for a few calls.
There are a few other cleanups here in the touched code:
- the stdin form of packetize() had an extra stray "%s" when printing
the packet
- the converted calls in t5562 can be made simpler by redirecting
output as a block, rather than repeated appending

We check the results of "rev-list --use-bitmap-index" by comparing it to
the same traversal without the bitmap option. However, this is a little
tricky to do because of some output differences (see the included
comment for details). Let's pull this out into a helper function, since
we'll be adding some similar tests.
While we're at it, let's also try to confirm that the bitmap output did
indeed use bitmaps. Since the code internally falls back to the
non-bitmap path in some cases, the tests are at risk of becoming trivial
noops.
This is a bit fragile, as not all outputs will differ (e.g., looking at
only the commits from a fully-bitmapped pack will end up exactly the
same as the normal traversal order, since it also matches the pack
order). So we'll provide an escape hatch by which tests can disable this
check (which should only be used after manually confirming that bitmaps
kicked in).

When 'test_commit_bulk' is invoked in an empty test repository, it

Since 3b072c577b (tests: replace test_tristate with "git env--helper",
2019-06-21) we get the normalized bool values of various GIT_TEST_*
environment variables via 'git env--helper'. Now, while the 'git
env--helper' command itself does catch invalid values in the
environment variable or in the given --default and exits with error
(exit code 128 or 129, respectively), it's invoked in conditions like
'if ! git env--helper ...', which means that all invalid bool values
are interpreted the same as the ordinary 'false' (exit code 1). This
has led to inadvertently skipped httpd tests in our CI builds for a
couple of weeks, see 3960290675 (ci: restore running httpd tests,
2019-09-06).
Let's be more careful about what the test suite accepts as bool values
in GIT_TEST_* environment variables, and error out loud and clear on
invalid values instead of simply skipping tests. Add the
'test_bool_env' helper function to encapsulate the invocation of 'git
env--helper' and the verification of its exit code, and replace all
invocations of that command in our test framework and test suite with
a call to this new helper (except in 't0017-env-helper.sh', of
course).

In the case where we are using test_cmp_rev() to report not-equals, we
write `! test_cmp_rev`. However, since test_cmp_rev() contains
r1=$(git rev-parse --verify "$1") &&
r2=$(git rev-parse --verify "$2") &&
`! test_cmp_rev` will succeed if any of the rev-parses fail. This
behavior is not desired. We want the rev-parses to _always_ be
successful.
Rewrite test_cmp_rev() to optionally accept "!" as the first argument to
do a not-equals comparison. Rewrite `! test_cmp_rev` to `test_cmp_rev !`
in all tests to take advantage of this new functionality.
Also, rewrite the rev-parse logic to end with a `|| return 1` instead of
&&-chaining into the rev-comparison logic. This makes it obvious to
future readers that we explicitly intend on returning early if either of
the rev-parses fail.

mv: cannot stat '.git/objects//e84adb2704cbd49549e52169b4043871e13432': No such file or directory
The function generating that path:
test_oid_to_path () {
echo "${1%${1#??}}/${1#??}"

which is supposed to produce a result like
12/3456789....
But a dash bug[*] causes it to instead expand to
/3456789...
The stream of symbols that makes up this function is hard for humans
to follow, too. The complexity mostly comes from the repeated use of
the expression ${1#??} for the basename of the loose object. Use a
variable instead --- nowadays, the dialect of shell used by Git
permits local variables, so this is cheap.
An alternative way to work around [*] is to remove the double-quotes
around test_oid_to_path's return value. That makes the expression
easier for dash to read, but harder for humans. Let's prefer the
rephrasing that's helpful for humans, too.

followed by the commands to be executed, then the output of those

Note that the test's name is only shown at the very end.
With '-x' tracing enabled and/or in longer tests the verbose output
might be several screenfulls long, making it harder than necessary to
find where the output of the test with a given name starts (especially

Some tests need to create a string of commits. Doing this with
test_commit is very heavy-weight, as it needs at least one process per
commit (and in fact, uses several).
For bulk creation, we can do much better by using fast-import, but it's
often a pain to generate the input. Let's provide a helper to do so.
We'll use t5310 as a guinea pig, as it has three 10-commit loops. Here
are hyperfine results before and after:
[before]
Benchmark #1
An error occurred
: ./t5310-pack-bitmaps.sh --root=/var/ram/git-tests
Time (mean ± σ): 2.846 s ± 0.305 s [User: 3.042 s, System: 0.919 s]

[after]

Range (min … max): 1.999 s … 2.590 s 10 runs
So we're over 20% faster, while making the callers slightly shorter. We
added a lot more lines in test-lib-function.sh, of course, and the
helper is way more featureful than we need here. But my hope is that it
will be flexible enough to use in more places.

On a case-insensitive filesystem, such as HFS+ or NTFS, it is possible
that the idea Bash has of the current directory differs in case from
what Git thinks it is. That's totally okay, though, and we should not
expect otherwise.
On Windows, for example, when you call
cd C:\GIT-SDK-64
in a PowerShell and there exists a directory called `C:\git-sdk-64`, the
current directory will be reported in all upper-case. Even in a Bash
that you might call from that PowerShell. Git, however, will have
normalized this via `GetFinalPathByHandle()`, and the expectation in
t0001 that the recorded gitdir will match what `pwd` says will be
violated.
Let's address this by comparing these paths in a case-insensitive
manner when `core.ignoreCase` is `true`.

Change the GIT_TEST_FAIL_PREREQS variable from being "non-empty?" to

Converting this one is a bit tricky since we use it so early and
frequently in the guts of the test code itself, so let's set a
GIT_TEST_FAIL_PREREQS_INTERNAL which can be tested with the old "test

The test_tristate helper introduced in 83d842dc8c ("tests: turn on
network daemon tests by default", 2014-02-10) can now be better
implemented with "git env--helper" to give the variables in question
the standard boolean behavior.
The reason for the "tristate" was to have all of false/true/auto,
where "auto" meant either "false" or "true" depending on what the
fallback was. With the --default option to "git env--helper" we can
simply have e.g. GIT_TEST_HTTPD where we know if it's true because the
user asked explicitly ("true"), or true implicitly ("auto").
This breaks backwards compatibility for explicitly setting "auto" for
these variables, but I don't think anyone cares. That was always
intended to be internal.
This means the test_normalize_bool() code in test-lib-functions.sh
goes away in addition to test_tristate(). We still need the
test_skip_or_die() helper, but now it takes the variable name instead
of the value, and uses "git env--bool" to distinguish a default "true"
from an explicit "true" (in those "explicit true" cases we want to
fail the test in question).

As discussed in [1] there's a regression in the "pu" branch now

a prerequisite had been run. Add a "GIT_TEST_FAIL_PREREQS" special
test setup where we'll skip (nearly) all tests guarded by
prerequisites, allowing us to easily emulate those platform where we
don't run these tests.
As noted in the documentation I'm adding I'm whitelisting the SYMLINKS
prerequisite for now. A lot of tests started failing if we lied about
not supporting symlinks. It's also unlikely that we'll have a failing
test due to a hard dependency on symlinks without that being the
obvious cause, so for now it's not worth the effort to make it work.

When running Apache, 'git daemon', or p4d, we want to kill them at the
end of the test script, otherwise a leftover daemon process will keep
its port open indefinitely, and thus will interfere with subsequent
executions of the same test script.
So far, we stop these daemon processes "manually", i.e.:
- by registering functions or commands in the trap on EXIT to stop
the daemon while preserving the last seen exit code before the
trap (to deal with a failure when run with '--immediate' or with
interrupts by ctrl-C),
- and by invoking these functions/commands last thing before
'test_done' (and sometimes restoring the test framework's default
trap on EXIT, to prevent the daemons from being killed twice).
On one hand, we do this inconsistently, e.g. 'git p4' tests invoke
different functions in the trap on EXIT and in the last test before
'test_done', and they neither restore the test framework's default trap
on EXIT nor preserve the last seen exit code. On the other hand, this
is error prone, because, as shown in a previous patch in this series,
any output from the cleanup commands in the trap on EXIT can prevent a
proper cleanup when a test script run with '--verbose-log' and certain
shells, notably 'dash', is interrupted.
Let's introduce 'test_atexit', which is loosely modeled after
'test_when_finished', but has a broader scope: rather than running the
commands after the current test case, run them when the test script
finishes, and also run them when the test is interrupted, or exits
early in case of a failure while the '--immediate' option is in
effect.
When running the cleanup commands at the end of a successful test,
then they will be run in 'test_done' before it removes the trash
directory, i.e. the cleanup commands will still be able to access any
pidfiles or socket files in there. When running the cleanup commands
after an interrupt or failure with '--immediate', then they will be
run in the trap on EXIT. In both cases they will be run in
'test_eval_', i.e. both standard error and output of all cleanup
commands will go where they should according to the '-v' or
'--verbose-log' options, and thus won't cause any troubles when
interrupting a test script run with '--verbose-log'.

In cc95bc2025 (t5562: replace /dev/zero with a pipe from
generate_zero_bytes, 2019-02-09), we replaced usage of /dev/zero (which
is not available on NonStop, apparently) by a Perl script snippet to
generate NUL bytes.
Sadly, it does not seem to work on NonStop, as t5562 reportedly hangs.
Worse, this also hangs in the Ubuntu 16.04 agents of the CI builds on
Azure Pipelines: for some reason, the Perl script snippet that is run
via `generate_zero_bytes` in t5562's 'CONTENT_LENGTH overflow ssite_t'
test case tries to write out an infinite amount of NUL bytes unless a
broken pipe is encountered, that snippet never encounters the broken
pipe, and keeps going until the build times out.
Oddly enough, this does not reproduce on the Windows and macOS agents,
nor in a local Ubuntu 18.04.
This developer tried for a day to figure out the exact circumstances
under which this hang happens, to no avail, the details remain a
mystery.

fixes that hang (maybe also on NonStop?). Even more positively, it gets

Unfortunately, we have a few flaky tests, whose failures tend to be
hard to reproduce. We've found that the best we can do to reproduce
such a failure is to run the test script repeatedly while the machine
is under load, and wait in the hope that the load creates enough
variance in the timing of the test's commands that a failure is
evenually triggered. I have a command to do that, and I noticed that
two other contributors have rolled their own scripts to do the same,
all choosing slightly different approaches.
To help reproduce failures in flaky tests, introduce the '--stress'
option to run a test script repeatedly in multiple parallel jobs until
one of them fails, thereby using the test script itself to increase
the load on the machine.
The number of parallel jobs is determined by, in order of precedence:
the number specified as '--stress=<N>', or the value of the
GIT_TEST_STRESS_LOAD environment variable, or twice the number of
available processors (as reported by the 'getconf' utility), or 8.
Make '--stress' imply '--verbose -x --immediate' to get the most
information about rare failures; there is really no point in spending
all the extra effort to reproduce such a failure, and then not know
which command failed and why.
To prevent the several parallel invocations of the same test from
interfering with each other:
- Include the parallel job's number in the name of the trash
directory and the various output files under 't/test-results/' as
a '.stress-<Nr>' suffix.
- Add the parallel job's number to the port number specified by the
user or to the test number, so even tests involving daemons
listening on a TCP socket can be stressed.
- Redirect each parallel test run's verbose output to
't/test-results/$TEST_NAME.stress-<nr>.out', because dumping the
output of several parallel running tests to the terminal would
create a big ugly mess.
For convenience, print the output of the failed test job at the end,
and rename its trash directory to end with the '.stress-failed'
suffix, so it's easy to find in a predictable path (OTOH, all absolute
paths recorded in the trash directory become invalid; we'll see
whether this causes any issues in practice). If, in an unlikely case,
more than one jobs were to fail nearly at the same time, then print
the output of all failed jobs, and rename the trash directory of only
the last one (i.e. with the highest job number), as it is the trash
directory of the test whose output will be at the bottom of the user's
terminal.
Based on Jeff King's 'stress' script.

Several test scripts run daemons like 'git-daemon' or Apache, and
communicate with them through TCP sockets. To have unique ports where
these daemons are accessible, the ports are usually the number of the
corresponding test scripts, unless the user overrides them via
environment variables, and thus all those tests and test libs contain
more or less the same bit of one-liner boilerplate code to find out
the port. The last patch in this series will make this a bit more
complicated.
Factor out finding the port for a daemon into the common helper
function 'test_set_port' to avoid repeating ourselves.
Take special care of test scripts with "low" numbers:
- Test numbers below 1024 would result in a port that's only usable
as root, so set their port to '10000 + test-nr' to make sure it
doesn't interfere with other tests in the test suite. This makes
the hardcoded port number in 't0410-partial-clone.sh' unnecessary,
remove it.
- The shell's arithmetic evaluation interprets numbers with leading
zeros as octal values, which means that test number below 1000 and
containing the digits 8 or 9 will trigger an error. Remove all
leading zeros from the test numbers to prevent this.
Note that the 'git p4' tests are unlike the other tests involving
daemons in that:
- 'lib-git-p4.sh' doesn't use the test's number for unique port as
is, but does a bit of additional arithmetic on top [1].
- The port is not overridable via an environment variable.
With this patch even 'git p4' tests will use the test's number as
default port, and it will be overridable via the P4DPORT environment
variable.
[1] Commit fc00233071 (git-p4 tests: refactor and cleanup, 2011-08-22)
introduced that "unusual" unique port computation without
explaining why it was necessary (as opposed to simply using the
test number as is). It seems to be just unnecessary complication,
and in any case that commit came way before the "test nr as unique
port" got "standardized" for other daemons in commits c44132fcf3

though that doesn't seem to cause any complications in our current
tests (meaning that I couldn't find any tests that have to work around
the presence of these files by explicitly removing or ignoring them).
Enhance 'test_cmp_rev' to provide a more useful output on failure with
less clutter:
error: two revisions point to different objects:
'HEAD^': d79ce1670bdcb76e6d1da2ae095e890ccb326ae9
'extra': 139b20d8e6c5b496de61f033f642d0e3dbff528d
Doing so is more convenient when storing the OIDs outputted by 'git
rev-parse' in a local variable each, which, as a bonus, won't pollute
the repository with intermediate files.
While at it, also ensure that 'test_cmp_rev' is invoked with the right
number of parameters, namely two.

Some of the functions in our test library check that they were invoked
properly with conditions like this:
test "$#" = 2 ||
error "bug in the test script: not 2 parameters to test-expect-success"
If this particular condition is triggered, then 'error' will abort the
whole test script with a bold red error message [1] right away.
However, under certain circumstances the test script will be aborted
completely silently, namely if:
- a similar condition in a test helper function like
'test_line_count' is triggered,
- which is invoked from the test script's "main" shell [2],
- and the test script is run manually (i.e. './t1234-foo.sh' as
opposed to 'make t1234-foo.sh' or 'make test') [3]
- and without the '--verbose' option,
because the error message is printed from within 'test_eval_', where
standard output is redirected either to /dev/null or to a log file.
The only indication that something is wrong is that not all tests in
the script are executed and at the end of the test script's output
there is no "# passed all N tests" message, which are subtle and can
easily go unnoticed, as I had to experience myself.
Send these "bug in the test script" error messages directly to the
test scripts standard error and thus to the terminal, so those bugs
will be much harder to overlook. Instead of updating all ~20 such
'error' calls with a redirection, let's add a BUG() function to
'test-lib.sh', wrapping an 'error' call with the proper redirection
and also including the common prefix of those error messages, and
convert all those call sites [4] to use this new BUG() function
instead.
[1] That particular error message from 'test_expect_success' is
printed in color only when running with or without '--verbose';
with '--tee' or '--verbose-log' the error is printed without
color, but it is printed to the terminal nonetheless.
[2] If such a condition is triggered in a subshell of a test, then
'error' won't be able to abort the whole test script, but only the
subshell, which in turn causes the test to fail in the usual way,
indicating loudly and clearly that something is wrong.
[3] Well, 'error' aborts the test script the same way when run
manually or by 'make' or 'prove', but both 'make' and 'prove' pay
attention to the test script's exit status, and even a silently
aborted test script would then trigger those tools' usual
noticable error messages.
[4] Strictly speaking, not all those 'error' calls need that
redirection to send their output to the terminal, see e.g.
'test_expect_success' in the opening example, but I think it's
better to be consistent.

On Windows, when we refer to `/an/absolute/path/to/git`, it magically
resolves `git.exe` at that location. Except if something of the name
`git` exists next to that `git.exe`. So if we call `$BUILD_DIR/git`, it
will find `$BUILD_DIR/git.exe` *only* if there is not, say, a directory
called `$BUILD_DIR/git`.
Such a directory, however, exists in Git for Windows when building with
Visual Studio (our Visual Studio project generator defaults to putting
the build files into a directory whose name is the base name of the
corresponding `.exe`).
In the bin-wrappers/* scripts, we already take pains to use `git.exe`
rather than `git`, as this could pick up the wrong thing on Windows
(i.e. if there exists a `git` file or directory in the build directory).
Now we do the same in the tests' start-up code.
This also helps when testing an installed Git, as there might be even
more likely some stray file or directory in the way.
Note: the only way we can record whether the `.exe` suffix is by writing
it to the `GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS` file and sourcing it at the beginning of
`t/test-lib.sh`. This is not a requirement introduced by this patch, but
we move the call to be able to use the `$X` variable that holds the file
extension, if any.
Note also: the many, many calls to `git this` and `git that` are
unaffected, as the regular PATH search will find the `.exe` files on
Windows (and not be confused by a directory of the name `git` that is
in one of the directories listed in the `PATH` variable), while
`/path/to/git` would not, per se, know that it is looking for an
executable and happily prefer such a directory.

Change the GETTEXT_POISON compile-time + runtime GIT_GETTEXT_POISON
test parameter to only be a GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON=<non-empty?>
runtime parameter, to be consistent with other parameters documented
in "Running tests with special setups" in t/README.
When I added GETTEXT_POISON in bb946bba76 ("i18n: add GETTEXT_POISON
to simulate unfriendly translator", 2011-02-22) I was concerned with
ensuring that the _() function would get constant folded if NO_GETTEXT
was defined, and likewise that GETTEXT_POISON would be compiled out
unless it was defined.
But as the benchmark in my [1] shows doing a one-off runtime
getenv("GIT_TEST_[...]") is trivial, and since GETTEXT_POISON was
originally added the GIT_TEST_* env variables have become the common
idiom for turning on special test setups.
So change GETTEXT_POISON to work the same way. Now the
GETTEXT_POISON=YesPlease compile-time option is gone, and running the
tests with GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON=[YesPlease|] can be toggled on/off
without recompiling.
This allows for conditionally amending tests to test with/without
poison, similar to what 859fdc0c3c ("commit-graph: define
GIT_TEST_COMMIT_GRAPH", 2018-08-29) did for GIT_TEST_COMMIT_GRAPH. Do
some of that, now we e.g. always run the t0205-gettext-poison.sh test.
I did enough there to remove the GETTEXT_POISON prerequisite, but its
inverse C_LOCALE_OUTPUT is still around, and surely some tests using
it can be converted to e.g. always set GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON=.
Notes on the implementation:
* We still compile a dedicated GETTEXT_POISON build in Travis
CI. Perhaps this should be revisited and integrated into the
"linux-gcc" build, see ae59a4e44f ("travis: run tests with
GIT_TEST_SPLIT_INDEX", 2018-01-07) for prior art in that area. Then
again maybe not, see [2].
* We now skip a test in t0000-basic.sh under
GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON=YesPlease that wasn't skipped before. This
test relies on C locale output, but due to an edge case in how the
previous implementation of GETTEXT_POISON worked (reading it from
GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS) wasn't enabling poison correctly. Now it does,
and needs to be skipped.
* The getenv() function is not reentrant, so out of paranoia about
code of the form:
printf(_("%s"), getenv("some-env"));
call use_gettext_poison() in our early setup in git_setup_gettext()
so we populate the "poison_requested" variable in a codepath that's
won't suffer from that race condition.
* We error out in the Makefile if you're still saying
GETTEXT_POISON=YesPlease to prompt users to change their
invocation.
* We should not print out poisoned messages during the test
initialization itself to keep it more readable, so the test library
hides the variable if set in $GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON_ORIG during
setup. See [3].
See also [4] for more on the motivation behind this patch, and the
history of the GETTEXT_POISON facility.

Add several test functions to make working with various hash-related
values easier.
Add test_oid_init, which loads common hash-related constants and
placeholder object IDs from the newly added files in t/oid-info.
Provide values for these constants for both SHA-1 and SHA-256.
Add test_oid_cache, which accepts data on standard input in the form of
hash-specific key-value pairs that can be looked up later, using the
same format as the files in t/oid-info. Document this format in a
t/oid-info/README directory so that it's easier to use in the future.
Add test_oid, which is used to specify look up a per-hash value
(produced on standard output) based on the key specified as its
argument. Usually the data to be looked up will be a hash-related
constant (such as the size of the hash in binary or hexadecimal), a
well-known or placeholder object ID (such as the all-zeros object ID or
one consisting of "deadbeef" repeated), or something similar. For these
reasons, test_oid will usually be used within a command substitution.
Consequently, redirect the error output to standard error, since
otherwise it will not be displayed.
Add test_detect_hash, which currently only detects SHA-1, and
test_set_hash, which can be used to set a different hash algorithm for
test purposes. In the future, test_detect_hash will learn to actually
detect the hash depending on how the testsuite is to be run.
Use the local keyword within these functions to avoid overwriting other
shell variables. We have had a test balloon in place for a couple of
releases to catch shells that don't have this keyword and have not
received any reports of failure. Note that the varying usages of local
used here are supported by all common open-source shells supporting the
local keyword.
Test these new functions as part of t0000, which also serves to
demonstrate basic usage of them. In addition, add documentation on how
to format the lookup data and how to use the test functions.
Implement two basic lookup charts, one for common invalid or synthesized
object IDs, and one for various facts about the hash function in use.
Provide versions of the data for both SHA-1 and SHA-256.
Since we use shell variables for storage, names used for lookup can
currently consist only of shell identifier characters. If this is a
problem in the future, we can hash the names before use.

The helper function test_must_be_empty is meant to make sure the
given file is empty, but its implementation is:
if test -s "$1"
then
... not empty, we detected a failure ...
fi
Surely, the file having non-zero size is a sign that the condition
"the file must be empty" is violated, but it misses the case where
the file does not even exist. It is an accident waiting to happen
with a buggy test like this:
git frotz 2>error-message &&
test_must_be_empty errro-message
that won't get caught until you deliberately break 'git frotz' and
notice why the test does not fail.

Running a test script with '-x' turns on 'set -x' tracing, the output
of which is normally sent to stderr. This causes a lot of
test failures, because many tests redirect and verify the stderr
of shell functions, most frequently that of 'test_must_fail'.
These issues were worked around somewhat in d88785e424 (test-lib: set
BASH_XTRACEFD automatically, 2016-05-11), so at least we could
reliably run tests with '-x' tracing under a Bash version supporting
BASH_XTRACEFD, i.e. v4.1 and later.
Futhermore, redirecting the stderr of test helper functions like
'test_must_fail' or 'test_expect_code' is the cause of a different
issue as well. If these functions detect something unexpected, they
will write their error messages intended to the user to thier stderr.
However, if their stderr is redirected in order to save and verify the
stderr of the tested git command invoked in the function, then the
function's error messages will be redirected as well. Consequently,
those messages won't reach the user, making the test's verbose output
less useful.
This patch makes it safe to redirect and verify the stderr of those
test helper functions which are meant to run the tested command given
as argument, even when running tests with '-x' and /bin/sh. This is
achieved through a couple of file descriptor redirections:
- Duplicate stderr of the tested command executed in the test helper
function from the function's fd 7 (see next point), to ensure that
the tested command's error messages go to a different fd than the
'-x' trace of the commands executed in the function or the
function's error messages.
- Duplicate the test helper function's fd 7 from the function's
original stderr, meaning that, after taking a detour through fd 7,
the error messages of the tested command do end up on the
function's original stderr.
- Duplicate stderr of the test helper function from fd 4, i.e. the
fd connected to the test script's original stderr and the fd used
for BASH_XTRACEFD. This ensures that the '-x' trace of the
commands executed in the function
- doesn't go to the function's original stderr, so it won't mess
with callers who want to save and verify the tested command's
stderr.
- does go to the same fd independently from the shell running
the test script, be it /bin/sh, an older Bash without
BASH_XTRACEFD, or a more recent Bash already supporting
BASH_XTRACEFD.
Furthermore, this also makes sure that the function's error
messages go to this fd 4, meaning that the user will be able to
see them even if the function's stderr is redirected in the test.
- Specify the latter two redirections above in the test helper
function's definition, so they are performed every time the
function is invoked, without the need to modify the callsites of
the function.
Perform these redirections in those test helper functions which can be
expected to have their stderr redirected, i.e. in the functions
'test_must_fail', 'test_might_fail', 'test_expect_code', 'test_env',
'nongit', 'test_terminal' and 'perl'. Note that 'test_might_fail',
'test_env', and 'nongit' are not involved in any test failures when
running tests with '-x' and /bin/sh.
The other test helper functions are left unchanged, because they
either don't run commands specified as their arguments, or redirecting
their stderr wouldn't make sense, or both.
With this change the number of failures when running the test suite
with '-x' tracing and /bin/sh goes down from 340 failed tests in 43
test scripts to 22 failed tests in 6 scripts (or 23 in 7, if the
system (OSX) uses an older Bash version without BASH_XTRACEFD to run
't9903-bash-prompt.sh').

Test helper functions like test_must_fail may produce
messages to stderr when they see a problem. When the tests
are run with "--verbose", this ends up on the test script's
stderr, and the user can read it.
But there's a problem. Some tests record stderr as part of
the test, like:
test_must_fail git foo 2>output &&
test_i18ngrep expected.message output
In this case the error text goes into "output". This makes
the --verbose output less useful (it also means we might
accidentally match it in the second, though in practice we
tend to produce these messages only on error, so we'd abort
the test when the first command fails).
Let's instead send this user-facing output directly to
descriptor 4, which always points to the original stderr (or
/dev/null in non-verbose mode). And it's already forbidden
to redirect descriptor 4, since we use it for BASH_XTRACEFD,
as explained in 9be795fbce (t5615: avoid re-using descriptor
4, 2017-12-08).

When 'test_i18ngrep' can't find the expected pattern, it exits
completely silently; when its negated form does find the pattern that
shouldn't be there, it prints the matching line(s) but otherwise exits
without any error message. This leaves the developer puzzled about
what could have gone wrong.
Make 'test_i18ngrep' more informative on failure by printing an error
message including the invoked 'grep' command and the contents of the
file it had to scan through.
Note that this "dump the scanned file" part is not quite perfect, as
it dumps only the file specified as the function's last positional
parameter, thus assuming that there is only a single file parameter.
I think that's a reasonable assumption to make, one that holds true in
the current code base. And even if someone were to scan multiple
files at once in the future, the worst thing that could happen is that
the verbose error message won't include the contents of all those
files, only the last one. Alas, we can't really do any better than
this, because checking whether the other positional parameters match a
filename can result in false positives: 't3400-rebase.sh' and
't3404-rebase-interactive.sh' contain one test each, where the
'test_i18ngrep's pattern verbatimly matches a file in the trash
directory.

Some of the previous patches in this series fixed bogus
'test_i18ngrep' invocations:
- Two invocations where the tested git command's standard output is
directly piped into 'test_i18ngrep'. While convenient, this is an
antipattern, because the pipe hides the git command's exit code,
and the test could continue even if the command exited with error.
- Two invocations that had neither a filename parameter nor anything
piped into their standard input, yet both managed to remain
unnoticed for years. A third similarly bogus invocation is
currently lurking in 'pu' for a couple of weeks now.
Prevent similar mistakes in the future by validating 'test_i18ngrep's
parameters requiring that
- The last parameter names an existing file to be read, effectively
forbidding piping into 'test_i18ngrep'.
Note that this change will also forbid cases where 'test_i18ngrep'
would legitimately read its standard input, e.g. when its standard
input is redirected from a file, or when a git command's standard
output is first written to an intermediate file, which is then
preprocessed by a non-git command before the results are piped
into 'test_i18ngrep'. See two of the previous patches for the
only such cases we had in our test suite. However, reliably
preventing the piping antipattern is arguably more important than
supporting these cases, which can be easily worked around by
opening the file directly or using an intermediate file anyway.
- There are at least two parameters, not including the optional '!'
to negate the pattern. This ought to catch corner cases when
'test_i18ngrep' looks for the name of an existing file on its
standard input; the above check would miss this case becase the
filename as pattern would be the last parameter.
Note that this is not quite perfect, as it doesn't account for any
'grep --options' given as parameters. However, doing so would be
far too complicated, considering that patterns can start with
dashes as well, and in the majority of the cases we don't use any
such options anyway.

All of our git-protocol tests rely on invoking the client
and having it make a request of a server. That gives a nice
real-world test of how the two behave together, but it
doesn't leave any room for testing how a server might react
to _other_ clients.
Let's add a few test helper functions which can be used to
manually conduct a git-protocol conversation with a remote
git-daemon:
1. To connect to a remote git-daemon, we need something
like "netcat". But not everybody will have netcat. And
even if they do, the behavior with respect to
half-duplex shutdowns is not portable (openbsd netcat
has "-N", with others you must rely on "-q 1", which is
racy).
Here we provide a "fake_nc" that is capable of doing
a client-side netcat, with sane half-duplex semantics.
It relies on perl's IO::Socket::INET. That's been in
the base distribution since 5.6.0, so it's probably
available everywhere. But just to be on the safe side,
we'll add a prereq.
2. To help tests speak and read pktline, this patch adds
packetize() and depacketize() functions.
I've put fake_nc() into lib-git-daemon.sh, since that's
really the only server where we'd need to use a network
socket. Whereas the pktline helpers may be of more general
use, so I've added them to test-lib-functions.sh. Programs
like upload-pack speak pktline, but can talk directly over
stdio without a network socket.
