Jeff King 33bbc59fed fsck: correctly compute checksums on idx files larger than 4GB When checking the trailing checksum hash of a .idx file, we pass the whole buffer (minus the trailing hash) into a single call to the_hash_algo->update_fn(). But we cast it to an "unsigned int". This comes from `c4001d92be` (Use off_t when we really mean a file offset., 2007-03-06). That commit started storing the index_size variable as an off_t, but our mozilla-sha1 implementation from the time was limited to a smaller size. Presumably the cast was a way of annotating that we expected .idx files to be small, and so we didn't need to loop (as we do for arbitrarily-large .pack files). Though as an aside it was still wrong, because the mozilla function actually took a signed int. These days our hash-update functions are defined to take a size_t, so we can pass the whole buffer in directly. The cast is actually causing a buggy truncation! While we're here, though, let's drop the confusing off_t variable in the first place. We're getting the size not from the filesystem anyway, but from p->index_size, which is a size_t. In fact, we can make the code a bit more readable by dropping our local variable duplicating p->index_size, and instead have one that stores the size of the actual index data, minus the trailing hash.

Git - fast, scalable, distributed revision control system

Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals.

Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses, compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.

Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.

Many Git online resources are accessible from https://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools.

See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see Documentation/giteveryday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and Documentation/git-<commandname>.txt for documentation of each command. If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be read with man gittutorial or git help tutorial, and the documentation of each command with man git-<commandname> or git help <commandname>.

CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt (man gitcvs-migration or git help cvs-migration if git is installed).

The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission). To subscribe to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at https://lore.kernel.org/git/, http://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.

Issues which are security relevant should be disclosed privately to the Git Security mailing list git-security@googlegroups.com.

The maintainer frequently sends the "What's cooking" reports that list the current status of various development topics to the mailing list. The discussion following them give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.

The name "git" was given by Linus Torvalds when he wrote the very first version. He described the tool as "the stupid content tracker" and the name as (depending on your mood):

random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not actually used by any common UNIX command. The fact that it is a mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant.
stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the dictionary of slang.
"global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
"goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks
