Use the standard message for reporting the use of multiple mutually
exclusive options by calling die_for_incompatible_opt3() instead of
rolling our own. This has the benefits of showing only the actually
given options, reducing the number of strings to translate and making
the UI slightly more consistent.
Adjust the test to no longer insist on a specific order of the
reported options, as this implementation detail does not affect the
usefulness of the error message.

The "rev-list" and other commands in the "log" family, being the
oldest part of the system, use their own custom argument parsers,
and integer values of some options are parsed with atoi(), which
allows a non-digit after the number (e.g., "1q") to be silently
ignored. As a natural consequence, an argument that does not begin
with a digit (e.g., "q") silently becomes zero, too.
Switch to use strtol_i() and parse_timestamp() appropriately to
catch bogus input.
Note that one may naïvely expect that --max-count, --skip, etc., to
only take non-negative values, but we must allow them to also take
negative values, as an escape hatch to countermand a limit set by an
earlier option on the command line; the underlying variables are
initialized to (-1) and "--max-count=-1", for example, is a
legitimate way to reinitialize the limit.

In our config callback, we call git_config_string() to copy the incoming
value string into a local string. But we don't modify or store that
string; we just look at it and then free it. We can make the code
simpler by just looking at the value passed into the callback.
Note that we do need to check for NULL, which is the one bit of logic
git_config_string() did for us. And I could even see an argument that we
are abstracting any error-checking of the value behind the
git_config_string() layer. But in practice no other callbacks behave
this way; it is standard to check for NULL and then just look at the
string directly.

We parse push config by calling git_config() with our git_push_config()
callback. But inside that callback, when we see "push.gpgsign", we
ignore the value passed into the callback and instead make a new call to
git_config_get_value().
This is unnecessary at best, and slightly wrong at worst (if there are
multiple instances, get_value() only returns one; both methods end up
with last-one-wins, but we'd fail to report errors if earlier
incarnations were bogus).
The call was added by 68c757f219 (push: add a config option push.gpgSign
for default signed pushes, 2015-08-19). That commit doesn't give any
reason to deviate from the usual strategy here; it was probably just
somebody unfamiliar with our config API and its conventions.
It also added identical code to builtin/send-pack.c, which also handles
push.gpgsign.
And then the same issue spread to its neighbor in b33a15b081 (push: add
recurseSubmodules config option, 2015-11-17), presumably via
cargo-culting.
This patch fixes all three to just directly use the value provided to
the callback. While I was adjusting the code to do so, I noticed that
push.gpgsign is overly careful about a NULL value. After
git_parse_maybe_bool() has returned anything besides 1, we know that the
value cannot be NULL (if it were, it would be an implicit "true", and
many callers of maybe_bool rely on that). Here that lets us shorten "if
(v && !strcasecmp(v, ...))" to just "if (!strcasecmp(v, ...))".

Since this code path was recently converted to check for a NULL value,
it now behaves exactly like git_config_string(). We can shorten the code
a bit by using that helper.
Note that git_config_string() takes a const pointer, but our storage
variable is non-const. We're better off making this "const", though,
since the default value points to a string literal (and thus it would be
an error if anybody tried to write to it).

The config callbacks for a few diff.* variables simply return -1 when we
encounter an error. The message you get mentions the offending location,
like:
fatal: bad config variable 'diff.algorithm' in file '.git/config' at line 7
but is vague about "bad" (as it must be, since the message comes from
the generic config code). Most callbacks add their own messages here, so
let's do the same. E.g.:
error: unknown value for config 'diff.algorithm': foo
fatal: bad config variable 'diff.algorithm' in file '.git/config' at line 7
I've written the string in a way that should be reusable for
translators, and matches another similar message in transport.c (there
doesn't yet seem to be a popular generic message to reuse here, so
hopefully this will get the ball rolling).
Note that in the case of diff.algorithm, our parse_algorithm_value()
helper does detect a NULL value string. But it's still worth detecting
it ourselves here, since we can give a more specific error message (and
which is the usual one for unexpected implicit-bool values).

The point of git_die_config() is to let configset users mention the
file/line info for invalid config, like:
if (!git_config_get_int("foo.bar", &value)) {
if (!is_ok(value))
git_die_config("foo.bar");
}
Using it from within a config callback is unnecessary, because we can
simply return an error, at which point the config machinery will mention
the file/line of the offending variable. Worse, using git_die_config()
can actually produce the wrong location when the key is found in
multiple spots. For instance, with config like:
[imap]
host
host = foo
we'll report the line number of the "host = foo" line, but the problem
is on the implicit-bool "host" line.
We can fix it by just returning an error code.

if (skip_prefix(var, "fsck.", &var))

We record the submodule branch config value as a string, so config that

bugs of this class, this can be triggered by parsing a bogus .gitmodules

I don't think the security implications are important, though. It's
always a strict NULL dereference, not an out-of-bounds read or write. So
we should reliably kill the process. That may be annoying, but the
impact is limited to the attacker preventing the victim from
successfully using "git clone --recurse-submodules", etc, on the

Since this command is purely informational (and we aren't trying to run

When the config parser sees an "implicit" bool like:

it passes NULL to the config callback. Any callback code which expects a

git_config_string(), etc, but some custom code forgets to do so and will
segfault.
These are all fairly vanilla cases where the solution is just the usual
pattern of:
if (!value)
return config_error_nonbool(var);
though note that in a few cases we have to split initializers like:
int some_var = initializer();
into:
int some_var;
if (!value)
return config_error_nonbool(var);
some_var = initializer();

Usually "bisect reset" cleans up any refs/bisect/ refs, along with
meta-files like .git/BISECT_LOG. But it only does so after deciding that
a bisection is active, which it does by reading BISECT_START. This is
usually fine, but it's possible to get into a confusing state if the
BISECT_START file is gone, but other cruft is left (this might be due to
a bug, or a system crash, etc).
And since "bisect reset" refuses to do anything in this state, the user
has no easy way to clean up the leftover cruft. While another "bisect
start" would clear the state, in the interim it can be annoying, as
other tools (like our bash prompt code) think we are bisecting, and
for-each-ref output may be polluted with refs/bisect/ entries.
Further adding to the confusion is that running "bisect reset $some_ref"
skips the BISECT_START check. So it never realizes that there's no
bisection active and does the cleanup anyway!
So let's just make sure we always do the cleanup, whether we looked at
BISECT_START or not. If the user doesn't give us a commit to reset to,
we'll still say "We are not bisecting" and skip the call to "git
checkout".

When we added generic end-of-options support in 51b4594b40
(parse-options: allow --end-of-options as a synonym for "--",
2019-08-06), we made them true synonyms. They both stop option parsing,
and they are both returned in the resulting argv if the KEEP_DASHDASH
flag is used.
The hope was that this would work for all callers:
- most generic callers would not pass KEEP_DASHDASH, and so would just
do the right thing (stop parsing there) without needing to know
anything more.
- callers with KEEP_DASHDASH were generally going to rely on
setup_revisions(), which knew to handle --end-of-options specially
But that turned out miss quite a few cases that pass KEEP_DASHDASH but
do their own manual parsing. For example, "git reset", "git checkout",
and so on want pass KEEP_DASHDASH so they can support:
git reset $revs -- $paths
but of course aren't going to actually do a traversal, so they don't
call setup_revisions(). And those cases currently get confused by
--end-of-options being left in place, like:
$ git reset --end-of-options HEAD
fatal: option '--end-of-options' must come before non-option arguments
We could teach each of these callers to handle the leftover option
explicitly. But let's try to be a bit more clever and see if we can
solve it centrally in parse-options.c.
The bogus assumption here is that KEEP_DASHDASH tells us the caller
wants to see --end-of-options in the result. But really, the callers
which need to know that --end-of-options was reached are those that may
potentially parse more options from argv. In other words, those that
pass the KEEP_UNKNOWN_OPT flag.
If such a caller is aware of --end-of-options (e.g., because they call
setup_revisions() with the result), then this will continue to do the
right thing, treating anything after --end-of-options as a non-option.
And if the caller is not aware of --end-of-options, they are better off
keeping it intact, because either:
1. They are just passing the options along to somebody else anyway, in
which case that somebody would need to know about the
--end-of-options marker.
2. They are going to parse the remainder themselves, at which point
choking on --end-of-options is much better than having it silently
removed. The point is to avoid option injection from untrusted
command line arguments, and bailing is better than quietly treating
the untrusted argument as an option.
This fixes bugs with --end-of-options across several commands, but I've
focused on two in particular here:
- t7102 confirms that "git reset --end-of-options --foo" now works.
This checks two things. One, that we no longer barf on
"--end-of-options" itself (which previously we did, even if the rev
was something vanilla like "HEAD" instead of "--foo"). And two, that
we correctly treat "--foo" as a revision rather than an option.
This fix applies to any other cases which pass KEEP_DASHDASH but not
KEEP_UNKNOWN_OPT, like "git checkout", "git check-attr", "git grep",
etc, which would previously choke on "--end-of-options".
- t9350 shows the opposite case: fast-export passed KEEP_UNKNOWN_OPT
but not KEEP_DASHDASH, but then passed the result on to
setup_revisions(). So it never saw --end-of-options, and would
erroneously parse "fast-export --end-of-options --foo" as having a
"--foo" option. This is now fixed.
Note that this does shut the door for callers which want to know if we
hit end-of-options, but don't otherwise need to keep unknown opts. The
obvious thing here is feeding it to the DWIM verify_filename()
machinery. And indeed, this is a problem even for commands which do
understand --end-of-options already. For example, without this patch,
you get:
$ git log --end-of-options --foo
fatal: option '--foo' must come before non-option arguments
because we refuse to accept "--foo" as a filename (because it starts
with a dash) even though we could know that we saw end-of-options. The
verify_filename() function simply doesn't accept this extra information.
So that is the status quo, and this patch doubles down further on that.
Commands like "git reset" have the same problem, but they won't even
know that parse-options saw --end-of-options! So even if we fixed
verify_filename(), they wouldn't have anything to pass to it.
But in practice I don't think this is a big deal. If you are being
careful enough to use --end-of-options, then you should also be using
"--" to disambiguate and avoid the DWIM behavior in the first place. In
other words, doing:
git log --end-of-options --this-is-a-rev -- --this-is-a-path
works correctly, and will continue to do so. And likewise, with this
patch now:
git reset --end-of-options --this-is-a-rev -- --this-is-a-path
will work, as well.

that should work with all backends and refactor the generic ones to not
write to the on-disk files directly anymore.

Two of our tests in t0410 verify whether partial clones end up with the
correct repository format version and extensions. These checks require
the reffiles backend because every other backend would by necessity bump
the repository format version to be at least 1.
Mark the tests accordingly.

Continue the work of 12909b6b8a (i18n: turn "options are incompatible"
into "cannot be used together", 2022-01-05) and a699367bb8 (i18n:
factorize more 'incompatible options' messages, 2022-01-31) to use the
same parameterized error message for reporting incompatible command line
options. This reduces the number of strings to translate and makes the
UI slightly more consistent.

Releasing strbuf and string_list just before exiting is not strictly
necessary, but it gets rid of false positives reported by leak checkers,
which can then be more easily used to show that the column-printing
machinery behind print_columns() are free of leaks.

In 7a5d604443 (commit: detect commits that exist in commit-graph but not
in the ODB, 2023-10-31), we have introduced a new object existence check
into `repo_parse_commit_internal()` so that we do not parse commits via
the commit-graph that don't have a corresponding object in the object
database. This new check of course comes with a performance penalty,
which the commit put at around 30% for `git rev-list --topo-order`. But
there are in fact scenarios where the performance regression is even
higher. The following benchmark against linux.git with a fully-build
commit-graph:
Benchmark 1: git.v2.42.1 rev-list --count HEAD
Time (mean ± σ): 658.0 ms ± 5.2 ms [User: 613.5 ms, System: 44.4 ms]
Range (min … max): 650.2 ms … 666.0 ms 10 runs
Benchmark 2: git.v2.43.0-rc1 rev-list --count HEAD
Time (mean ± σ): 1.333 s ± 0.019 s [User: 1.263 s, System: 0.069 s]
Range (min … max): 1.302 s … 1.361 s 10 runs
Summary
git.v2.42.1 rev-list --count HEAD ran
2.03 ± 0.03 times faster than git.v2.43.0-rc1 rev-list --count HEAD
While it's a noble goal to ensure that results are the same regardless
of whether or not we have a potentially stale commit-graph, taking twice
as much time is a tough sell. Furthermore, we can generally assume that
the commit-graph will be updated by git-gc(1) or git-maintenance(1) as
required so that the case where the commit-graph is stale should not at
all be common.
With that in mind, default-disable GIT_COMMIT_GRAPH_PARANOIA and restore
the behaviour and thus performance previous to the mentioned commit. In
order to not be inconsistent, also disable this behaviour by default in
`lookup_commit_in_graph()`, where the object existence check has been
introduced right at its inception via f559d6d45e (revision: avoid
hitting packfiles when commits are in commit-graph, 2021-08-09).
This results in another speedup in commands that end up calling this
function, even though it's less pronounced compared to the above
benchmark. The following has been executed in linux.git with ~1.2
million references:
Benchmark 1: GIT_COMMIT_GRAPH_PARANOIA=true git rev-list --all --no-walk=unsorted
Time (mean ± σ): 2.947 s ± 0.003 s [User: 2.412 s, System: 0.534 s]
Range (min … max): 2.943 s … 2.949 s 3 runs
Benchmark 2: GIT_COMMIT_GRAPH_PARANOIA=false git rev-list --all --no-walk=unsorted
Time (mean ± σ): 2.724 s ± 0.030 s [User: 2.207 s, System: 0.514 s]
Range (min … max): 2.704 s … 2.759 s 3 runs
Summary
GIT_COMMIT_GRAPH_PARANOIA=false git rev-list --all --no-walk=unsorted ran
1.08 ± 0.01 times faster than GIT_COMMIT_GRAPH_PARANOIA=true git rev-list --all --no-walk=unsorted
So whereas 7a5d604443 initially introduced the logic to start doing an
object existence check in `repo_parse_commit_internal()` by default, the
updated logic will now instead cause `lookup_commit_in_graph()` to stop
doing the check by default. This behaviour continues to be tweakable by
the user via the GIT_COMMIT_GRAPH_PARANOIA environment variable.
Note that this requires us to amend some tests to manually turn on the
paranoid checks again. This is because we cause repository corruption by
manually deleting objects which are part of the commit graph already.
These circumstances shouldn't usually happen in repositories.

The documentation for reflog states that the --dry-run option of the
expire and delete subcommands has a corresponding short name, -n.
However, 33d7bdd645 (builtin/reflog.c: use parse-options api for expire,
delete subcommands, 2022-01-06) did not include this short name in the
new options parsing.
Re-add the short name in the new dry-run option definitions.

"orphan branch" is not even grammatical ("orphaned branch" is), and
we have been using "unborn branch" to mean the state where the HEAD
points at a branch that does not yet exist.
Update end-user facing messages to correct them. There are cases
other random words are used (e.g., "unparented branch") but now we
have a glossary entry, use the term "unborn branch" consistently.

To orphan is a verb that denotes the act of getting on an unborn
branch, and a few references to "orphan branch" in our documentation
are misuses of the word. They caused end-user confusion, which was
made even worse because we did not have the term defined in the
glossary document. Add entries for "unborn" branch and "orphan"
operation to the glossary, and adjust existing documentation
accordingly.

In the added tests cases, skip testing the `GIT_TRACE2_REDACT=0` case
because we would need to exactly model the full JSON event stream like
we did in the preceding basic tests and I do not think it is worth it.
Furthermore, the Trace2 routines print the same content in normal, perf,
or event format, and in t0210 and t0211 we already tested the basic
functionality, so no need to repeat it here.
In this test, we use the test-helper to unit test each of the event
messages where URLs can appear and confirm that they are redacted in
each event.
