Jeff King 9b204b825b hash: use git_hash_init() consistently
We'd like to add more logic to git_hash_init(), but many callers skip it
and call algop->init_fn() directly. Let's make sure we're consistently
using the wrapper by adding a coccinelle rule.

Besides the coccinelle file itself, this is a purely mechanical
conversion based on the patch it generates. There should be no bare
init_fn() calls left (except for the one in the wrapper).

brian m. carlson cdaf12f762 parse-options: exit 0 on -h
The standard philosophy for Unix software when a help option (such as
--help) is specified is that the software should exit 0, printing the
help output to standard output, since the standard output is for
user-requested output and the program performed the requested task
successfully.  If the user specifies an incorrect option, then the help
output should be printed to standard error (since the user has made a
mistake) and it should exit unsuccessfully.

Most of our commands currently exit 129 on receiving the -h option to
print the short help, which does not line up with the standard
philosophy above.  Let's change that to exit 0 instead.

This requires changes to a variety of tests which previously wanted the
129 exit code, so update them.  Note that because git diff does its own
option parsing, it still exits with 129, so update some of the tests to
expect either exit status.

Some commands also now pass with -h but not --help-all, so handle those
cases differently for those commands.

brian m. carlson 06f9b9501a rev-parse: have --parseopt callers exit 0 on --help
The standard philosophy for Unix software when a help option (such as
--help) is specified is that the software should exit 0, printing the
help output to standard output, since the standard output is for
user-requested output and the program performed the requested task
successfully.  If the user specifies an incorrect option, then the help
output should be printed to standard error (since the user has made a
mistake) and it should exit unsuccessfully.

git rev-parse --parseopt properly directs the output in both of these
cases, but it currently exits 129 when it receives a --help or -h option
on the command line, which causes its invoking script to do the same.
This is not in line with the usual behavior and it causes scripts using
this command to exit unsuccessfully on --help as well.

Note that Git subcommands implemented using scripts, such as git
submodule, don't have this problem because Git itself intercepts the
--help option and runs man (or a similar tool), which then exits 0.
However, this still affects the myriad scripts that use this
functionality because Git is widespread and the --parseopt functionality
is a good way to get sensible option parsing across shells in a portable
way.

Because git rev-parse --parseopt is intended to be eval'd by the shell,
when help output is to be printed to standard output, Git actually
prints a cat command with a heredoc since the standard output is being
evaluated by the shell.  Thus, to do the right thing, simply add an
"exit 0" right after the end of the heredoc, which will cause the
invoking program to exit successfully.

The usual invocation recommended by the manual page is this:

    eval "$(echo "$OPTS_SPEC" | git rev-parse --parseopt -- "$@" || echo exit $?)"

Thus, the fact that git rev-parse --parseopt still exits 129 in this
case is irrelevant, since the "echo exit $?" will print "exit 129", but
that will be after the "exit 0" printed by Git—and thus ignored, since
the shell will have already exited successfully.

Update the tests for this case.  Note that we no longer need to delete
only the first and last lines in some tests, so add a command to delete
the end of the heredoc as well.  We could do something clever with sed
to delete all but the last two lines or switch to head and tail, but
those would be more complicated and less readable, so just stick with
the simple approach.

In t1517, add three shell scripts to the failure case because they no
longer return 129 as expected.  In a future commit, we'll change the
expected result to exit 0 and these will become successful again.

brian m. carlson 154aee0bd2 parse-options: add a separate case for help output on error
When we parse a command line option such as -h or --help, we currently
exit 129, since that is the exit code when help output is printed. In a
future commit, we'll change this to exit 0 instead, since we're doing
what the user wanted successfully.

However, there are some cases where we print help output because the
user has provided ambiguous or invalid input, such as an ambiguous
option, and we'll want to exit unsuccessfully there.  Make this easier
by defining a new return code, PARSE_OPT_HELP_ERROR, that can be used in
this case, while reserving PARSE_OPT_HELP for those cases where the user
has requested help directly.

brian m. carlson 5df632cd05 t1517: skip svn tests if svn is not installed
The svn tests currently assume that git-svn's option parsing will always
fail the tests because it exits 0 on --help, not 129.  However, in a
future commit, we'll expect it to exit 0 and the tests will then need to
be updated to succeed in some cases and fail in others.

We therefore need to have t1517 determine whether the Subversion Perl
modules are present, since if they are not, git-svn will die on start
and then it needs to continue to expect failure.  Add a stripped down
version of the tests in t/lib-git-svn.sh as a prerequisite we can use
here for our svn tests.

Patrick Steinhardt 293b7850a7 setup: pass worktree to `init_db()`
In the preceding commits we have refactored how we discover and set up
repositories so that we cannot end up with partially-configured repos.
Instead, we apply the gitdir, worktree and repository format in a single
location, only.

Initializing a new repository has the same antipattern though: while
most of the information for the new repository is passed via parameters,
the work tree is instead propagated by configuring the repository's work
tree.

Refactor the code so that we also pass the work tree as an explicit
parameter. Like this, configuration fo the repository happens in a
single spot, too, just as with repository discovery.

In the preceding commits we have introduced a separate repository
discovery phase and refactored the logic so that we have two clear

  1. Repository discovery, which doesn't modify the repository itself at

stress these two different phases.

Patrick Steinhardt 0bf8e14643 setup: propagate prefix via repository discovery
In the preceding commits we have started to propagate all information
required for the configuration of the repository via a new `struct
repo_discovery`. The only exception is the repository's prefix, which we
still return via the return parameter.

This is conceptually fine, but somewhat inconsistent. Refactor this to
instead propagate the prefix via the repository discovery, too.

While at it, drop a static variable in `repo_discover_bare_gitdir()`.
We apply its value to the repository discovery anyway, so we don't have
to keep it around afterwards anymore.

Patrick Steinhardt d66975fa06 setup: introduce explicit repository discovery
When setting up the global repository we intermix repository discovery
and repository configuration: we repeatedly call `set_git_work_tree()`
and `apply_and_export_relative_gitdir()` until we're happy with the
result. The result of this is then a partially-configured repository
that we use for further setup.

This process is quite hard to follow, as it's never quite clear which
parts of the repository have been configured already and which haven't.
Furthermore, it means that the repository configuration is distributed
across many different places instead of having it neatly contained in a
single location. Ultimately, this is the reason that we cannot use a
central function like `repo_init()`.

Refactor the logic so that we stop partially-configuring a repository
and instead populate a new `struct repo_discovery`. This allow us to
essentially split repository setup into two phases:

  - The first phase only figures out parameters required to configure
    the repository.

  - The second phase then takes these parameters and applies them to the
    repository.

Like this, we'll never end up with a partially-configured repository and
can eventually extend `repo_init()` to handle the full initialization
for us.

Patrick Steinhardt cf1687a41c setup: split up concerns of `setup_git_env_internal()`
The function `setup_git_env_internal()` does two completely unrelated
things:

  - It configures the repository's gitdir and propagates environment
    variables into it.

  - It configures a couple of global parameters via environment
    variables.

The function is called when we initialize the repository's path, but
it's also called via `chdir_notify_register()` whenever we change the
current working directory. While we indeed have to reconfigure the
gitdir in case it's a relative path, it doesn't make sense to reapply
the global environment variables.

Split up concerns of this function along the above delineation. Handling
of the global environment variables is moved into `init_git()`, as they
can be considered part of our setup procedure.

Patrick Steinhardt d43b9acb05 setup: unify setup of shallow file
It is possible to configure an arbitrary "shallow" file via two
mechanisms, and the respective logic to handle these is split across two
locations:

  - Via the "GIT_SHALLOW_FILE" environment variable, which is handled in
    `setup_git_env_internal()`.

  - Via the global "--shallow-file=" command line option, which is
    handled in `handle_options()`.

We can rather easily unify this logic by not configuring the shallow
file in `handle_options()`, but instead overwriting the environment
variable. The environment variable itself is then handled inside of
`apply_repository_format()`, which is responsible for configuring a
discovered Git directory.

This new logic is similar in nature to how we handle the other global
options already, all of which end up setting an environment variable.
So for one this gives us more consistency. But more importantly, this
change means that `the_repository` will not contain any relevant state
anymore before we hit `apply_repository_format()` once we're at the end
of this patch series. Consequently, it will become possible for us to
completely discard `the_repository` and populate it anew.

Note that on first sight, this change looks like it might change the
precedence order. Before this change, we used to configure the shallow
file in the arguments handler first, and then it looks like we override
it via the environment variable. What's important to note though is the
last parameter to `set_alternate_shallow_file()`, which tells us whether
we want to overwrite a preexisting value, and when applying the value
from the environment we tell it not to overwrite preexisting values. So
in effect, the command line has precedence over the environment. After
this change, we now overwrite preexisting environment variables when we
see the argument, and consequently we keep the precedence order in tact.

With this change though we don't need the final parameter anymore that
tells `set_alternate_shallow_file()` whether or not to overwrite. We
only have a single callsite for this function now, and that function is
itself only ever called exactly once. Remove that parameter.

Patrick Steinhardt c6799958b1 setup: mark bogus worktree in `apply_repository_format()`
When a repository is configured to have both "core.worktree" and
"core.bare" we emit a warning and mark the worktree configuration as
bogus so that the next call to `setup_work_tree()` will cause us to die.
This allows us to still use the misconfigured repository, at least as
long as we don't try to use its worktree.

This condition is handled in `setup_explicit_git_dir()`. In a subsequent
commit we'll refactor this function so that it doesn't receive a repo as
input anymore though, and consequently we cannot set the "bogus" bit
anymore.

Move the logic into `apply_repository_format()` instead to prepare for
this. While at it, fix up formatting a bit.

Note that this change requires us to also explicitly unset the value of
"core.worktree" in case we have the "GIT_WORK_TREE" environment variable
set. This is because the environment variable overrides the repository's
configuration, and we don't want to warn or die in case the work tree
has been configured explicitly regardless of whether or not "core.bare"
is set.

Patrick Steinhardt 9ca3ea9881 setup: rename `check_repository_format_gently()`
The function `check_repository_format_gently()` receives a format as
input. An unknowing reader may thus suspect that this function actually
checks the passed-in format for consistency. While the function indeed
checks the repository format, it actually serves two purposes:

  - It reads the repository's format and populates the passed-in format
    with that information.

  - It then indeed checks whether the format is consistent.

Rename the function to `read_and_verify_repository_format()` to clarify
its functionality. While at it, reorder the parameters so that the
format comes first to better match other functions that pass around the
format.

Michael Montalbo be7112d1bb t: add greplint to detect bare grep assertions
Without a lint guard, bare grep assertions will creep back into
tests over time, defeating the previous commit's conversion.

Add greplint.pl to catch bare 'grep' used as a test assertion
(where 'test_grep' should be used) and '! test_grep' (where
'test_grep !' should be used).

greplint.pl reuses the shared shell parser from lib-shell-parser.pl
to tokenize test bodies.  The Lexer collapses heredocs, command
substitutions, and quoted strings into single tokens, so 'grep'
appearing inside these contexts is not flagged.  A flat walk over
the token stream tracks command position and pipeline state to
distinguish assertion greps from filter greps.

For double-quoted test bodies, a source-line walk counts
backslash-continuation lines that the Lexer consumes without
emitting into the body text, adjusting the reported line number
accordingly.

Add test fixtures in greplint/ (modeled on chainlint/) covering
detection of bare grep assertions, correct skipping of filters,
pipelines, redirects, command substitutions, and lint-ok annotations.

Wire into the Makefile as:
  - test-greplint: runs greplint.pl on $(T) $(THELPERS) $(TPERF)
  - check-greplint: runs greplint.pl on fixtures, diffs against expected
  - clean-greplint: removes temp dir

Add eol=lf entries in t/.gitattributes for greplint fixtures,
matching chainlint, so that check-greplint passes on Windows
where core.autocrlf would otherwise cause CRLF mismatches
between expected and actual output.

Michael Montalbo 47f79f6198 t: convert grep assertions to test_grep
Replace bare grep with test_grep in test assertions across the
suite, including sourced test helpers (lib-*.sh, *-tests.sh).
test_grep prints the contents of the file being searched on
failure, making debugging easier than a bare grep which fails
silently.

Only assertion-style greps are converted: grep used as a filter
in pipelines, command substitutions, conditionals, or with
redirected I/O is left as-is with a "# lint-ok" annotation.
Existing '! test_grep' calls are rewritten to 'test_grep !' so
that the diagnostic output is preserved on failure.

test_grep requires the file it reads to exist, so '! grep'
assertions that inspect a file whose presence is conditional need
care.  In t5537 the '.git/shallow' file is still present after the
repack (the client remains shallow), so the assertion is
converted like any other.  In t1400 the '.git/packed-refs' file
exists only with the files backend, so its check is guarded with a
REFFILES prerequisite; the backend-agnostic 'git show-ref' check
that follows still runs under every backend.  In t7450 'git~2' is
the NTFS 8.3 short name of a '..git' file and only exists
when 8.3 short-name generation is enabled, so its check is guarded
with a 'test -f' on the path and uses test_grep inside the guard,
the same shape as t1400 (a plain test_grep would BUG when the
short name is absent).

The conversion was generated using a grep-assertion linter
(greplint.pl, added in the following commit) to identify bare
grep calls at command position.  To reproduce, from the t/
directory:

    # Step 1: annotate the two data-filter greps (grep produces
    # data, not a verdict) so the linter skips them.
    sed -i '/grep -vf before commits\.raw/s/$/ # lint-ok: data filter/' \
        t5326-multi-pack-bitmaps.sh
    sed -i '/grep -E "^\[0-9a-f\].*|| :/s/$/ # lint-ok: data filter/' \
        t5702-protocol-v2.sh

    # Step 1b: two '! grep' assertions need more than a mechanical
    # conversion; handle them by hand before the linter-driven steps
    # below so it leaves them alone.
    #
    # t1400: '.git/packed-refs' is absent under reftable, so guard the
    # check with REFFILES (a plain test_grep would BUG on the missing
    # file):
    #
    #      git update-ref -d HEAD $B &&
    #  -   ! grep "$m" .git/packed-refs &&
    #  +   if test_have_prereq REFFILES
    #  +   then
    #  +           test_grep ! "$m" .git/packed-refs
    #  +   fi &&
    #      test_must_fail git show-ref --verify -q $m
    #
    # t7450: git~2 is an NTFS 8.3 short name that exists only when
    # short-name generation is enabled, so guard the check on its
    # presence with 'test -f' and note in a comment why the path can
    # be absent (a plain test_grep would BUG when it is):
    #
    #  -   ! grep gitdir squatting-clone/d/a/git~2
    #  +   if test -f squatting-clone/d/a/git~2
    #  +   then
    #  +           test_grep ! gitdir squatting-clone/d/a/git~2
    #  +   fi

    # Step 2: reorder pre-existing '! test_grep' to 'test_grep !'
    # (must come before steps 3-4 so greplint does not see them)
    sed -i 's/! test_grep/test_grep !/' t0031-lockfile-pid.sh
    sed -i 's/! test_grep/test_grep !/' t5300-pack-object.sh
    sed -i 's/! test_grep/test_grep !/' t5319-multi-pack-index.sh

    # Step 3: convert '! grep' -> 'test_grep !'
    perl greplint.pl *.sh 2>&1 | cut -d: -f1,2 |
    while IFS=: read f l; do
        sed -i "${l}s/! *grep/test_grep !/" "$f"
    done

    # Step 4: convert remaining 'grep' -> 'test_grep'
    perl greplint.pl *.sh 2>&1 | cut -d: -f1,2 |
    while IFS=: read f l; do
        sed -i "${l}s/grep/test_grep/" "$f"
    done

To verify, run: make -C t test-greplint

Michael Montalbo 4f8f121eff t: fix Lexer line count for $() inside double-quoted strings
scan_dqstring's post-loop newline counter re-counts newlines that
were already counted during recursive parsing of $() bodies.  This
happens because scan_dollar returns text containing newlines (from
multi-line command substitutions), and the catch-all counter at the
end of scan_dqstring counts all of them again.

Fix this by counting newlines inline as non-special characters are
consumed, and removing the post-loop catch-all.  Each newline is
now counted exactly once: literal newlines at the inline match,
line splices at the backslash handler, and $() newlines by
scan_token during the recursive parse.

This is a latent bug: any consumer that relies on token line
numbers rather than byte offsets would get incorrect results for
tokens following a multi-line $() inside a double-quoted string.
chainlint is not affected because it annotates the original body
text using byte offsets, not token line numbers.

Michael Montalbo c451e96f3f t: extract chainlint's parser into shared module
Move chainlint.pl's Lexer, ShellParser, and ScriptParser into a
shared module (lib-shell-parser.pl) so other lint tools can reuse
the same shell parsing infrastructure.  A subsequent commit adds
greplint.pl, which needs the same tokenizer to correctly identify
command boundaries.

ScriptParser's check_test() becomes a no-op in the shared module.
chainlint.pl defines ChainlintParser (extending ScriptParser)
with the &&-chain check_test() implementation.

No functional change: chainlint produces the same output and
check-chainlint self-tests pass.

Michael Montalbo 04e875a364 t: fix grep assertions missing file arguments
Three grep assertions were missing their file arguments, causing
them to read from empty stdin instead of the intended file:

- t2402: '! grep ...' should read from 'out', matching the
  grep on the preceding line.
- t7507: the closing quote is in the wrong place, making the
  entire 'diff --git actual' a single pattern with no file
  argument instead of pattern 'diff --git' and file 'actual'.
- t7700: '! grep ...' should read from 'packlist', matching
  the redirect on the preceding line.

Without file arguments these greps always succeed (empty stdin
matches nothing), so the assertions were not actually checking
anything.  All three tests pass with the corrected file arguments,
confirming the intended behavior is sound.

Michael Montalbo afd278b35a t/README: document test_grep helper
test_grep is a wrapper around grep for test assertions that prints
the file contents on failure for easier debugging.  It also accepts
'!' as its first argument for negation, which preserves the
diagnostic output that '! test_grep' would suppress.

Despite being widely used (and the preferred replacement for bare
grep in assertions), test_grep has no entry in t/README alongside
the other documented helpers like test_cmp and test_line_count.
Add one.
