Martin Ågren dc542fcd6b t1517: add missing LIBCURL prereq
After building Git with NO_LIBCURL, there is no `git remote-http`, so
it's not meaningful to test that it can run outside of a repository.
Indeed, that test will fail. Add the LIBCURL prereq to it.

Xing Xin a77554ea09 diff-tree: fix crash when used with --remerge-diff
When using "git-diff-tree" to get the tree diff for merge commits with
the diff format set to `remerge`, a bug is triggered as shown below:

  $ git diff-tree -r --remerge-diff 363337e6eb
  363337e6eb
  BUG: log-tree.c:1006: did a remerge diff without remerge_objdir?!?

This bug is reported by `log-tree.c:do_remerge_diff`, where a bug check
added in commit 7b90ab467a (log: clean unneeded objects during log
--remerge-diff, 2022-02-02) detects the absence of `remerge_objdir` when
attempting to clean up temporary objects generated during the remerge
process.

After some further digging, I find that the remerge-related diff options
were introduced in db757e8b8d (show, log: provide a --remerge-diff
capability, 2022-02-02), which also affect the setup of `rev_info` for
"git-diff-tree", but were not accounted for in the original
implementation (inferred from the commit message).

Elijah Newren, the author of the remerge diff feature, notes that other
callers of `log-tree.c:log_tree_commit` (the only caller of
`log-tree.c:do_remerge_diff`) also exist, but:

  `builtin/am.c`: manually sets all flags; remerge_diff is not among them
  `sequencer.c`: manually sets all flags; remerge_diff is not among them

so `builtin/diff-tree.c` really is the only caller that was overlooked
when remerge-diff functionality was added.

This commit resolves the crash by adding `remerge_objdir` setup logic to
`builtin/diff-tree.c`, mirroring `builtin/log.c:cmd_log_walk_no_free`.
It also includes the necessary cleanup for `remerge_objdir`.

Kyle Lippincott ec60bb9fc4 t6421: fix test to work when repo dir contains d0
The `grep` statement in this test looks for `d0.*<string>`, attempting
to filter to only show lines that had tabular output where the 2nd
column had `d0` and the final column had a substring of
[`git -c `]`fetch.negotiationAlgorithm`. These lines also have
`child_start` in the 4th column, but this isn't part of the condition.

A subsequent line will have `d1` in the 2nd column, `start` in the 4th
column, and `/path/to/git/git -c fetch.negotiationAlgorihm` in the final
column. If `/path/to/git/git` contains the substring `d0`, then this
line is included by `grep` as well as the desired line, leading to an
effective doubling of the number of lines, and test failures.

Tighten the grep expression to require `d0` to be surrounded by spaces,
and to have the `child_start` label.

Kyle Lippincott b928d57ca9 set errno=0 before strtoX calls
To detect conversion failure after calls to functions like `strtod`, one
can check `errno == ERANGE`. These functions are not guaranteed to set
`errno` to `0` on successful conversion, however. Manual manipulation of
`errno` can likely be avoided by checking that the output pointer
differs from the input pointer, but that's not how other locations, such
as parse.c:139, handle this issue; they set errno to 0 prior to
executing the function.

For every place I could find a strtoX function with an ERANGE check
following it, set `errno = 0;` prior to executing the conversion
function.

Reduce code duplication by calling decimal_width() to count the digits
in the number of commits instead of calculating it locally.

It also has the advantage of returning int, which is the exact type
expected by the printf()-like function strbuf_addf() for field width

Additionally, decimal_width() supports numbers bigger than 1410065407,

Patrick Steinhardt 9e89dcb66a builtin/ls-remote: fall back to SHA1 outside of a repo
In c8aed5e8da (repository: stop setting SHA1 as the default object hash,
2024-05-07), we have stopped setting the default hash algorithm for
`the_repository`. Consequently, code that relies on `the_hash_algo` will
now crash when it hasn't explicitly been initialized, which may be the
case when running outside of a Git repository.

It was reported that git-ls-remote(1) may crash in such a way when using
a remote helper that advertises refspecs. This is because the refspec
announced by the helper will get parsed during capability negotiation.
At that point we haven't yet figured out what object format the remote
uses though, so when run outside of a repository then we will fail.

The course of action is somewhat dubious in the first place. Ideally, we
should only parse object IDs once we have asked the remote helper for
the object format. And if the helper didn't announce the "object-format"
capability, then we should always assume SHA256. But instead, we used to
take either SHA1 if there was no repository, or we used the hash of the
local repository, which is wrong.

Arguably though, crashing hard may not be in the best interest of our
users, either. So while the old behaviour was buggy, let's restore it
for now as a short-term fix. We should eventually revisit, potentially
by deferring the point in time when we parse the refspec until after we
have figured out the remote's object hash.

Taylor Blau 615d2de3b4 config.c: avoid segfault with --fixed-value and valueless config
When using `--fixed-value` with a key whose value is left empty (implied
as being "true"), 'git config' may crash when invoked like either of:

    $ git config set --file=config --value=value --fixed-value \
        section.key pattern
    $ git config --file=config --fixed-value section.key value pattern

The original bugreport[1] bisects to 00bbdde141 (builtin/config:
introduce "set" subcommand, 2024-05-06), which is a red-herring, since
the original bugreport uses the new 'git config set' invocation.

The behavior likely bisects back to c90702a1f6 (config: plumb
--fixed-value into config API, 2020-11-25), which introduces the new
--fixed-value option in the first place.

Looking at the relevant frame from a failed process's coredump, the
crash appears in config.c::matches() like so:

    (gdb) up
    #1  0x000055b3e8b06022 in matches (key=0x55b3ea894360 "section.key", value=0x0,
        store=0x7ffe99076eb0) at config.c:2884
    2884			return !strcmp(store->fixed_value, value);

where we are trying to compare the `--fixed-value` argument to `value`,
which is NULL.

Avoid attempting to match `--fixed-value` for configuration keys with no
explicit value. A future patch could consider the empty value to mean
"true", "yes", "on", etc. when invoked with `--type=bool`, but let's
punt on that for now in the name of avoiding the segfault.

Jeff King b201316835 credential/osxkeychain: respect NUL terminator in username
This patch fixes a case where git-credential-osxkeychain might output
uninitialized bytes to stdout.

We need to get the username string from a system API using
CFStringGetCString(). To do that, we get the max size for the string
from CFStringGetMaximumSizeForEncoding(), allocate a buffer based on
that, and then read into it. But then we print the entire buffer to
stdout, including the trailing NUL and any extra bytes which were not
needed. Instead, we should stop at the NUL.

This code comes from 9abe31f5f1 (osxkeychain: replace deprecated
SecKeychain API, 2024-02-17). The bug was probably overlooked back then
because this code is only used as a fallback when we can't get the
string via CFStringGetCStringPtr(). According to Apple's documentation:

  Whether or not this function returns a valid pointer or NULL depends
  on many factors, all of which depend on how the string was created and
  its properties.

So it's not clear how we could make a test for this, and we'll have to
rely on manually testing on a system that triggered the bug in the first
place.

Patrick Steinhardt 49f4fd901a t98xx: fix Perforce tests with p4d r23 and newer
Some of the tests in t98xx modify the Perforce depot in ways that the
tool wouldn't normally allow. This is done to test behaviour of git-p4
in certain edge cases that we have observed in the wild, but which
should in theory not be possible.

Naturally, modifying the depot on disk directly is quite intimate with
the tool and thus prone to breakage when Perforce updates the way that
data is stored. And indeed, those tests are broken nowadays with r23 of
Perforce. While a file revision was previously stored as a plain file
"depot/file,v", it is now stored in a directory "depot/file,d" with
compression.

Adapt those tests to handle both old- and new-style depot layouts.

D Harithamma 63ad8dbf16 convert: return early when not tracing
When Git adds a file requiring encoding conversion and tracing of encoding
conversion is not requested via the GIT_TRACE_WORKING_TREE_ENCODING
environment variable, the `trace_encoding()` function still allocates &
prepares "human readable" copies of the file contents before and after
conversion to show in the trace. This results in a high memory footprint
and increased runtime without providing any user-visible benefit.

This fix introduces an early exit from the `trace_encoding()` function
when tracing is not requested, preventing unnecessary memory allocation

René Scharfe 098be29f5b t-example-decorate: remove test messages
The test_msg() calls only repeat information already present in test
descriptions and check definitions, which are shown automatically if
the checks fail.  Remove the redundant messages to simplify the tests
and their output.  Here it is with all of them failing before:

 # check "ret == NULL" failed at t/unit-tests/t-example-decorate.c:18
 # when adding a brand-new object, NULL should be returned
 # check "ret == NULL" failed at t/unit-tests/t-example-decorate.c:21
 # when adding a brand-new object, NULL should be returned
 not ok 1 - Add 2 objects, one with a non-NULL decoration and one with a NULL decoration.
 # check "ret == &vars->decoration_a" failed at t/unit-tests/t-example-decorate.c:29
 # when readding an already existing object, existing decoration should be returned
 # check "ret == NULL" failed at t/unit-tests/t-example-decorate.c:32
 # when readding an already existing object, existing decoration should be returned
 not ok 2 - When re-adding an already existing object, the old decoration is returned.
 # check "ret == NULL" failed at t/unit-tests/t-example-decorate.c:40
 # lookup should return added declaration
 # check "ret == &vars->decoration_b" failed at t/unit-tests/t-example-decorate.c:43
 # lookup should return added declaration
 # check "ret == NULL" failed at t/unit-tests/t-example-decorate.c:46
 # lookup for unknown object should return NULL
 not ok 3 - Lookup returns the added declarations, or NULL if the object was never added.
 # check "objects_noticed == 2" failed at t/unit-tests/t-example-decorate.c:58
 #    left: 1
 #   right: 2
 # should have 2 objects
 not ok 4 - The user can also loop through all entries.
 1..4

... and here with the patch applied:

 # check "ret == NULL" failed at t/unit-tests/t-example-decorate.c:18
 # check "ret == NULL" failed at t/unit-tests/t-example-decorate.c:20

Junio C Hamano ee0be850b0 safe.directory: setting safe.directory="." allows the "current" directory
When "git daemon" enters a repository, it chdir's to the requested
repository and then uses "." (the curent directory) to consult the
"is this repository considered safe?" when it is not owned by the
same owner as the process.

Make sure this access will be allowed by setting safe.directory to
".", as that was once advertised on the list as a valid workaround
to the overly tight safe.directory settings introduced by 2.45.1
(cf. <834862fd-b579-438a-b9b3-5246bf27ce8a@gmail.com>).

Also add simlar test to show what happens in the same setting if the
safe.directory is set to "*" instead of "."; in short, "." is a bit
tighter (as it is custom designed for git-daemon situation) than
"anything goes" settings given by "*".

Junio C Hamano dc0edbb01c safe.directory: normalize the configured path
The pathname of a repository comes from getcwd() and it could be a
path aliased via symbolic links, e.g., the real directory may be
/home/u/repository but a symbolic link /home/u/repo may point at it,
and the clone request may come as "git clone file:///home/u/repo/"

A request to check if /home/u/repository is safe would be rejected
if the safe.directory configuration allows /home/u/repo/ but not its
alias /home/u/repository/.  Normalize the paths configured for the
safe.directory configuration variable before comparing them with the
path being checked.

Two and a half things to note, compared to the previous step to
normalize the actual path of the suspected repository, are:

 - A configured safe.directory may be coming from .gitignore in the
   home directory that may be shared across machines.  The path
   meant to match with an entry may not necessarily exist on all of
   such machines, so not being able to convert them to real path on
   this machine is *not* a condition that is worthy of warning.
   Hence, we ignore a path that cannot be converted to a real path.

 - A configured safe.directory is essentially a random string that
   user throws at us, written completely unrelated to the directory
   the current process happens to be in.  Hence it makes little
   sense to give a non-absolute path.  Hence we ignore any
   non-absolute paths, except for ".".

 - The safe.directory set to "." was once advertised on the list as
   a valid workaround for the regression caused by the overly tight
   safe.directory check introduced in 2.45.1; we treat it to mean
   "if we are at the top level of a repository, it is OK".
   (cf. <834862fd-b579-438a-b9b3-5246bf27ce8a@gmail.com>).

Junio C Hamano 1048aa8b7a safe.directory: preliminary clean-up
The paths given in the safe.directory configuration variable are
allowed to contain "~user" (which interpolates to user's home
directory) and "%(prefix)" (which interpolates to the installation
location in RUNTIME_PREFIX-enabled builds, and a call to the
git_config_pathname() function is tasked to obtain a copy of the
path with these constructs interpolated.

The function, when it succeeds, always yields an allocated string in
the location given as the out-parameter; even when there is nothing
to interpolate in the original, a literal copy is made.  The code
path that contains this caller somehow made two contradicting and
incorrect assumptions of the behaviour when there is no need for
interpolation, and was written with extra defensiveness against
two phantom risks that do not exist.

One wrong assumption was that the function might yield NULL when
there is no interpolation.  This led to the use of an extra "check"
variable, conditionally holding either the interpolated or the
original string.  The assumption was with us since 8959555c
(setup_git_directory(): add an owner check for the top-level
directory, 2022-03-02) originally introduced the safe.directory
feature.

Another wrong assumption was that the function might yield the same
pointer as the input when there is no interpolation.  This led to a
conditional free'ing of the interpolated copy, that the conditional
never skipped, as we always received an allocated string.

Simplify the code by removing the extra defensiveness.
