Jeff King 567e62b1b9 transport: drop remote object-info fields from transport struct
A remote object-info request needs three things: the transport for
contacting the remote, the list of oids to request, and a place to store
the output.

Rather than take these as function parameters, we take only the
transport object, and expect the caller to have placed the other two
into special fields in the transport struct. But this doesn't make much
sense. The set of oids and results are really only valid for one
request. There is no reason the transport would need to hang on to them
outside of the single function call.

Even though we save a few lines passing the parameters around through
the various vtable functions, the result is harder to understand (for
example, who is responsible for cleaning up results, and when should it
happen?). It also opens up the possibility of a subtle bug. A caller is
likely to point those fields to stack variables which could go out of
scope, and the transport struct would be left holding invalid pointers.

This is mostly harmless now, as we disconnect the transport immediately
after the sole caller of transport_fetch_object_info(). But conceptually
we could keep the transport open and make multiple fetch calls (and
reuse the same connection to the helper, to a remote HTTP server, and so
on).

So let's pull these out of the struct and pass them as function
parameters. It's a little more verbose, but I think more clearly
illustrates the intent. I've also tweaked a few function signatures to
mark the input oid array as const, since it is purely an input to the
function.

Pablo Sabater 50dd6d370c fetch-object-info: die() on the remaining error path
Every failure in fetch_object_info() dies except one: a short read while
parsing the attribute lines returns -1. That -1 is then passed through
fetch_object_info_via_pack() and get_remote_info() up to cat-file, only
to die() with a generic message.

Die in fetch_object_info() instead, consistently with the rest of its
error paths, and make fetch_object_info() void.

Pablo Sabater c5c971d967 fetch-object-info: use dedicated struct for the results
fetch_object_info() collects information about N objects, but it stores
the results in an array of object_info. That struct holds the extended
parameters of read_object_info() (The optional outputs the caller wants
filled). Its pointers tell that function where to write the answers for
a single object. object_info is not meant to be the final storage, and
since fetch_object_info() does not call read_object_info(), there is no
reason to use it. Using it means allocating one scalar per object per
attribute just to have those pointers somewhere to point at.

Add struct fetch_object_info_results. The caller sets the wants_* flags
to say what it is interested in, and fetch_object_info() allocates one
array per attribute. A set wants_* flag means "asked for", while a
non-NULL array means "available". The caller releases the arrays with
free_fetch_object_info_results().

The object_info_options string list is no longer needed. Filtering
against the server's advertisement now sets local ask_* flags, and
send_object_info_request() turns those into the v2 protocol option
strings. remote_atom_map[] existed only to map those strings back into
atom names, so drop it and build remote_allowed_atoms from the result
arrays.

Currently for wants_* and ask_* there is only the 'size' variant but a
subsequent commit will add '*_type'.

free_object_info_contents() loses its only caller and is dropped.

Dropping the allow-list check makes the final else reachable from the
wire, so die() instead of BUG(): an unknown attribute is the server's
error, not ours.

Pablo Sabater d43b4d3fa1 fetch-object-info: pass arguments directly instead of a struct
struct object_info_args groups three pointers that already live in the
transport and are given to fetch_object_info().
Grouping them into a struct reduces the number of parameters, but it
suggests that the three belong together, when they are unrelated and end
up being accessed as args->* independently.

Drop the struct and pass those parameters directly to
fetch_object_info() and send_object_info_request(). This should have no
change in behavior.

Pablo Sabater dd1968bf84 cat-file: make remote-object-info allow-list adapt to the server
The static allow-list in expand_atom() is hardcoded to allow only
"objectname" and "objectsize" for remote queries. This works because,
up to this point, servers will either support object-info with name
and size or they do not support them at all.

As object-info gains new capabilities, we cannot expect different
servers with different Git versions to have the same object-info
capabilities. Therefore, the client needs to adapt its allow-list to
what the server advertises.

The client now:

1. Requests the protocol option that the placeholder refers to (i.e.
   "size" for "%(objectsize)").

2. Drops any requested option that the server does not advertise in
   fetch_object_info().

3. Maps the remaining advertised options back to their placeholders and
   populates remote_allowed_atoms.

4. Uses remote_allowed_atoms in expand_atom(), preserving the previous
   behavior for supported placeholders.

For example, if the client requests "%(objectsize) %(objecttype)" and
the server only supports 'size', then the client only requests 'size'.
The server returns the size (i.e "42") "%(objectsize)" is expanded
normally while "%(objecttype)" expands to an empty string:

	"42 "

Note that the empty string expansion is only for known but unsupported
placeholders. "%(objectcolor)" which doesn't exist would die().

This honors what for-each-ref does for known but inapplicable atoms
(placeholders).

Move object_info_options out of get_remote_info() so the caller which
has data can select what options will be requested instead of requesting
always size.

Move batch_object_write() out so output is always produced.
If there are no supported attributes, the output is a blank line.

Include "type" in the object_info_options even though the client does
not yet know how to parse the server's "type" capability.

As a result, "type" is always filtered out, allowing the tests to verify
that known but unsupported placeholders expand to an empty string.

Since the filter removes options by swapping with the last element,
the list is no longer kept sorted. Drop the pre-sort in
fetch_object_info_via_pack() and use the unsorted string_list lookup
for the response header. This has no effect in performance as the list
can only be two entries long ('size' and 'type').

Calvin Wan 12a19eec1d transport: add client support for object-info
Sometimes, it is beneficial to retrieve information about an object
without downloading it entirely. The server-side logic for this
functionality was implemented in commit "a2ba162cda (object-info:
support for retrieving object info, 2021-04-20)." And the wire
format is documented at
https://git-scm.com/docs/protocol-v2#_object_info.

Introduce client-side support for the object-info capability.

Add its own function for object-info separate from existing fetch
infrastructure.

Currently, the client supports requesting a list of OIDs with the size
attribute from a v2 server. If the server does not advertise this
feature (i.e., transfer.advertiseobjectinfo is set to false), the client
returns an error and exits.

Note that:

1. The entire request is written into req_buf before being sent to the
   remote. This approach follows the pattern used in the
   send_fetch_request() logic within 'fetch-pack.c'. Streaming the
   request is not addressed in this patch.

2. A new field 'unrecognized' has been added to object_info. This new
   field is set at fetch_object_info() when the object is unrecognized
   by the server.

Derrick Stolee a6d92c48e4 send-pack: pass negotiation config in push
When push.negotiate is enabled, 'git push' spawns a child 'git fetch
--negotiate-only' process to find common commits.  Pass
--negotiation-include and --negotiation-restrict options from the
'remote.<name>.negotiationInclude' and
'remote.<name>.negotiationRestrict' config keys to this child process.

When negotiationRestrict is configured, it replaces the default
behavior of using all remote refs as negotiation tips. This allows
the user to control which local refs are used for push negotiation.

When negotiationInclude is configured, the specified ref patterns
are passed as --negotiation-include to ensure their tips are always
sent as 'have' lines during push negotiation.

Derrick Stolee e2164742c9 fetch: add --negotiation-include option for negotiation
Add a new --negotiation-include option to 'git fetch', which ensures
that certain ref tips are always sent as 'have' lines during fetch
negotiation, regardless of what the negotiation algorithm selects.

This is useful when the repository has a large number of references, so
the normal negotiation algorithm truncates the list. This is especially
important in repositories with long parallel commit histories. For
example, a repo could have a 'dev' branch for development and a
'release' branch for released versions. If the 'dev' branch isn't
selected for negotiation, then it's not a big deal because there are
many in-progress development branches with a shared history. However, if
'release' is not selected for negotiation, then the server may think
that this is the first time the client has asked for that reference,
causing a full download of its parallel commit history (and any extra
data that may be unique to that branch). This is based on a real example
where certain fetches would grow to 60+ GB when a release branch
updated.

This option is a complement to --negotiation-restrict, which reduces the
negotiation ref set to a specific list. In the earlier example, using
--negotiation-restrict to focus the negotiation to 'dev' and 'release'
would avoid those problematic downloads, but would still not allow
advertising potentially-relevant user branches. In this way, the
'include' version solves the problem I mention while allowing
negotiation to pick other references opportunistically. The two options
can also be combined to allow the best of both worlds.

The argument may be an exact ref name or a glob pattern. Non-existent
refs are silently ignored. This behavior is also updated in the ref matching
logic for the related --negotiation-restrict option to match.

The implementation outputs the requested objects as haves before the
negotiator performs its own algorithm to choose the next haves. Use the new
have_sent() interface to signal these have commits were sent before engaging
with the negotiator's next() iterator.

Also add --negotiation-include to 'git pull' passthrough options.

Derrick Stolee 4aef7dbb06 transport: rename negotiation_tips
The previous change added the --negotiation-restrict synonym for the
--negotiation-tip option for 'git fetch'. In anticipation of adding a new
option that behaves similarly but with distinct changes to its behavior,
rename the internal representation of this data from 'negotiation_tips' to
'negotiation_restrict_tips'.

The 'tips' part is kept because this is an oid_array in the transport layer.
This requires the builtin to handle parsing refs into collections of oids so
the transport layer can handle this cleaner form of the data.

Also update the string_list used to store the inputs from command-line
options.

Jeff King 3198237bf3 connect: use "service" enum for "name" argument
The git_connect() function takes a "name" argument which is a bit
confusing. It is _not_ the program to run on the remote repo, which is
specified by the "prog" argument. It should instead be one of a few
well-known strings specifying the type of operation (e.g.,
"git-upload-pack"). But to add to the confusion, unless otherwise
configured, those well-known strings will also be the same as the
programs we run, making it easy to mistake which variable is which.

This confusion comes from eaa0fd6584 (git_connect(): fix corner cases in
downgrading v2 to v0, 2023-03-17), though in its defense, the term
"name" and the use of a string are found in other connect code, going
all the way back to b236752a87 (Support remote archive from all smart
transports, 2009-12-09).

But let's see if we can clean things up a bit. The term "name" is overly
vague. We use "service" in other places, including in the smart-http
protocol, so let's use it here, too.

Using a string invites the notion that it can be anything, not one of a
defined set. Let's instead introduce an enum, which has the added bonus
that the compiler can catch typos for us, rather than quietly choosing
the wrong service from an unexpected strcmp() result.

We do still have to turn our enum into those well-known strings to pass
along in the remote-helper protocol (e.g., for a stateless-connect
directive). But now we do so explicitly and in a way that I think is
much more obvious to follow.

This is a pure cleanup; there should be no behavior change.

Adrian Ratiu f776b77f00 hook: allow pre-push parallel execution
pre-push is the only hook that keeps stdout and stderr separate (for
backwards compatibility with git-lfs and potentially other users). This
prevents parallelizing it because run-command needs stdout_to_stderr=1
to buffer and de-interleave parallel outputs.

Since we now default to jobs=1, backwards compatibility is maintained
without needing any extension or extra config: when no parallelism is
requested, pre-push behaves exactly as before.

When the user explicitly opts into parallelism via hook.jobs > 1,
hook.<event>.jobs > 1, or -jN, they accept the changed output behavior.

Document this and let get_hook_jobs() set stdout_to_stderr=1 automatically
when jobs > 1, removing the need for any extension infrastructure.

Jeff King 2594747ad1 transport: plug leaks in transport_color_config()
We retrieve config values with repo_config_get_string(), which will
allocate a new copy of the string for us. But we don't hold on to those
strings, since they are just fed to git_config_colorbool() and
color_parse(). But nor do we free them, which means they leak.

We can fix this by using the "_tmp" form of repo_config_get_string(),
which just hands us a pointer directly to the internal storage. This is
OK for our purposes, since we don't need it to last for longer than our
parsing calls.

Two interesting side notes here:

  1. Many types already have a repo_config_get_X() variant that handles
     this for us (e.g., repo_config_get_bool()). But neither colorbools
     nor colors themselves have such helpers. We might think about
     adding them, but converting all callers is a larger task, and out
     of scope for this fix.

  2. As far as I can tell, this leak has been there since 960786e761
     (push: colorize errors, 2018-04-21), but wasn't detected by LSan in
     our test suite. It started triggering when we applied dd3693eb08
     (transport-helper, connect: use clean_on_exit to reap children on
     abnormal exit, 2026-03-12) which is mostly unrelated.

     Even weirder, it seems to trigger only with clang (and not gcc),
     and only with GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_REF_FORMAT=reftable. So I think this
     is another odd case where the pointers happened to be hanging
     around in stack memory, but changing the pattern of function calls
     in nearby code was enough for them to be incidentally overwritten.

Johannes Schindelin 602c83f0ef sideband: offer to configure sanitizing on a per-URL basis
The main objection against sanitizing the sideband that was raised
during the review of the sideband sanitizing patches, first on the
git-security mailing list, then on the public mailing list, was that
there are some setups where server-side `pre-receive` hooks want to
error out, giving colorful messages to the users on the client side (if
they are not redirecting the output into a file, that is).

To avoid breaking such setups, the default chosen by the sideband
sanitizing patches is to pass through ANSI color sequences.

Still, there might be some use case out there where that is not enough.
Therefore the `sideband.allowControlCharacters` config setting allows
for configuring  levels of sanitizing.

As Junio Hamano pointed out, to keep users safe by default, we need to
be able to scope this to some servers because while a user may trust
their company's Git server, the same might not apply to other Git
servers.

To allow for this, let's imitate the way `http.<url>.*` offers
to scope config settings to certain URLs, by letting users
override the `sideband.allowControlCharacters` setting via
`sideband.<url>.allowControlCharacters`.

Adrian Ratiu ee2fbfd6b2 hook: add internal state alloc/free callbacks
Some hooks use opaque structs to keep internal state between callbacks.

Because hooks ran sequentially (jobs == 1) with one command per hook,
these internal states could be allocated on the stack for each hook run.

Next commits add the ability to run multiple commands for each hook, so
the states cannot be shared or stored on the stack anymore, especially
since down the line we will also enable parallel execution (jobs > 1).

Add alloc/free helpers for each hook, doing a "deep" alloc/init & free
of their internal opaque struct.

The alloc callback takes a context pointer, to initialize the struct at
at the time of resource acquisition.

These callbacks must always be provided together: no alloc without free
and no free without alloc, otherwise a BUG() is triggered.

Christian Couder ef2f1845ec fetch-pack: wire up and enable auto filter logic
Previous commits have set up an infrastructure for `--filter=auto` to
automatically prepare a partial clone filter based on what the server
advertised and the client accepted.

Using that infrastructure, let's now enable the `--filter=auto` option
in `git clone` and `git fetch` by setting `allow_auto_filter` to 1.

Note that these small changes mean that when `git clone --filter=auto`
or `git fetch --filter=auto` are used, "auto" is automatically saved
as the partial clone filter for the server on the client. Therefore
subsequent calls to `git fetch` on the client will automatically use
this "auto" mode even without `--filter=auto`.

Let's also set `allow_auto_filter` to 1 in `transport.c`, as the
transport layer must be able to accept the "auto" filter spec even if
the invoking command hasn't fully parsed it yet.

When an "auto" filter is requested, let's have the "fetch-pack.c" code
in `do_fetch_pack_v2()` compute a filter and send it to the server.

In `do_fetch_pack_v2()` the logic also needs to check for the
"promisor-remote" capability and call `promisor_remote_reply()` to
parse advertised remotes and populate the list of those accepted (and
their filters).

Collin Funk 4ac4705afa global: constify some pointers that are not written to
The recent glibc 2.43 release had the following change listed in its
NEWS file:

    For ISO C23, the functions bsearch, memchr, strchr, strpbrk, strrchr,
    strstr, wcschr, wcspbrk, wcsrchr, wcsstr and wmemchr that return
    pointers into their input arrays now have definitions as macros that
    return a pointer to a const-qualified type when the input argument is
    a pointer to a const-qualified type.

When compiling with GCC 15, which defaults to -std=gnu23, this causes
many warnings like this:

    merge-ort.c: In function ‘apply_directory_rename_modifications’:
    merge-ort.c:2734:36: warning: initialization discards ‘const’ qualifier from pointer target type [-Wdiscarded-qualifiers]
     2734 |                 char *last_slash = strrchr(cur_path, '/');
          |                                    ^~~~~~~

This patch fixes the more obvious ones by making them const when we do
not write to the returned pointer.

Jeff King e9330ae4b8 color: use git_colorbool enum type to store colorbools
We traditionally used "int" to store and pass around the values defined
by "enum git_colorbool" (which were originally just #define macros).
Using an int doesn't produce incorrect results, but using the actual
enum makes the intent of the code more clear.

It would be nice if the compiler could catch cases where we used the
enum and an int interchangeably, since it's very easy to accidentally
check the boolean true/false of a colorbool like:

  if (branch_use_color)

This is wrong because GIT_COLOR_UNKNOWN and GIT_COLOR_AUTO evaluate to
true in C, even though we may ultimately decide not to use color. But C
is pretty happy to convert between ints and enums (even with various
-Wenum-* warnings). So this sadly doesn't protect us from such mistakes,
but it hopefully does make the code easier to read.

Jeff King 3c3e9b8303 color: use GIT_COLOR_* instead of numeric constants
Long ago Git's decision to show color for a subsytem was stored in a
tri-state variable: it could be true (1), false (0), or unknown (-1).
But since daa0c3d971 (color: delay auto-color decision until point of
use, 2011-08-17) we want to carry around a new state, "auto", which
bases the decision on the tty-ness of stdout (rather than collapsing
that "auto" state to a true/false immediately).

That commit introduced a set of GIT_COLOR_* defines to represent each
state: UNKNOWN, ALWAYS, NEVER, and AUTO. But it only used the AUTO
value, and left alone code using bare 0/1/-1 values. And of course since
then we've grown many new spots that use those bare values.

Let's switch all of these to use the named constants. That should make
the code a bit easier to read, as it is more obvious that we're
representing a color decision.

Jiang Xin b81f8c8dd3 send-pack: gracefully close the connection for atomic push
Patrick reported an issue that the exit code of git-receive-pack(1) is
ignored during atomic push with "--porcelain" flag, and added new test
cases in t5543.

This issue originated from commit 7dcbeaa0df (send-pack: fix
inconsistent porcelain output, 2020-04-17). At that time, I chose to
ignore the exit code of "finish_connect()" without investigating the
root cause of the abnormal termination of git-receive-pack. That was an
incorrect solution.

The root cause is that an atomic push operation terminates early without
sending a flush packet to git-receive-pack. As a result,
git-receive-pack continues waiting for commands without exiting. By
sending a flush packet at the appropriate location in "send_pack()", we
ensure that the git-receive-pack process closes properly, avoiding an
erroneous exit code for git-push. At the same time, revert the changes
to the "transport.c" file made in commit 7dcbeaa0df.

Jiang Xin 3028db4af2 send-pack: new return code "ERROR_SEND_PACK_BAD_REF_STATUS"
The "push_refs" function in the transport_vtable is the handler for
git-push operation. All the "push_refs" functions for different
transports (protocols) should have the same behavior, but the behavior
of "git_transport_push()" function for builtin_smart_vtable in
"transport.c" (which calls "send_pack()" in "send-pack.c") differs from
the handler of the HTTP protocol.

The "push_refs()" function for the HTTP protocol which calls the
"push_refs_with_push()" function in "transport-helper.c" will return 0
even when a bad REF_STATUS (such as REF_STATUS_REJECT_NONFASTFORWARD)
was found. But "send_pack()" for Git smart protocol will return -1 for
a bad REF_STATUS.

We cannot ignore bad REF_STATUS directly in the "send_pack()" function,
because the function is also used in "builtin/send-pack.c". So we add a
new non-zero error code "SEND_PACK_ERROR_REF_STATUS" for "send_pack()".

Ignore the specific error code in the "git_transport_push()" function to
have the same behavior as "push_refs()" for HTTP protocol. Note that
even though we ignore the error here, we'll ultimately still end up
detecting that a subset of refs was not pushed in `transport_push()`
because we eventually call `push_had_errors()` on the remote refs.

Johannes Schindelin 9a84794ad8 bundle: avoid closing file descriptor twice
Already when introduced in c7a8a16239 (Add bundle transport,
2007-09-10), the `bundle` transport had a bug where it would open a file
descriptor to the bundle file and then close it _twice_: First, the file
descriptor (`data->fd`) is passed to `unbundle()`, which would use it as
the `stdin` of the `index-pack` process, which as a consequence would
close it via `start_command()`. However, `data->fd` would still hold the
numerical value of the file descriptor, and `close_bundle()` would see
that and happily close it again.

This seems not to have caused too many problems in almost two decades,
but I encountered a situation today where it _does_ cause problems: In
i686 variants of Git for Windows, it seems that file descriptors are
reused quickly after they have been closed.

In the particular scenario I faced, `git fetch <bundle> <ref>` gets the
same file descriptor value when opening the bundle file and importing
its embedded packfile (which implicitly closes the file descriptor) and
then when opening a pack file in `fetch_and_consume_refs()` while
looking up an object's header.

Later on, after the bundle has been imported (and the `close_bundle()`
function erroneously closes the file descriptor that has _already_ been
closed when using it as `stdin` for `git index-pack`), the same file
descriptor value has now been reused via `use_pack()`. Now, when either
the recursive fetch (which defaults to "on", unfortunately) or a
commit-graph update needs to `mmap()` the packfile, it fails due to a
now-invalid file descriptor that _should_ point to the pack file but
doesn't anymore.

To fix that, let's invalidate `data->fd` after calling `unbundle()`.
That way, `close_bundle()` does not close a file descriptor that may
have been reused for something different. While at it, document that
`unbundle()` closes the file descriptor, and ensure that it also does
that when failing to verify the bundle.

Luckily, this bug does not affect the bundle URI feature, it only
affects the `git fetch <bundle>` code path.

Note that this patch does not _completely_ clarifies who is responsible
to close that file descriptor, as `run_command()` may fail _without_
closing `cmd->in`. Addressing this issue thoroughly, however, would
require a rather thorough re-design of the `start_command()` and
`finish_command()` functionality to make it a lot less murky who is
responsible for what file descriptors.

At least this here patch is relatively easy to reason about, and
addresses a hard failure (`fatal: mmap: could not determine filesize`)
at the expense of leaking a file descriptor under very rare
circumstances in which `git fetch` would error out anyway.
