According to git-fetch(1), "[t]he colon can be omitted when <dst>
is empty." So according to git, the refspec "refs/heads/master"
is the same as the refspec "refs/heads/master:" when fetching
changes. When trying to fetch from a remote with a trailing
colon with libgit2, though, the fetch actually fails while it
works when the trailing colon is left out. So obviously, libgit2
does _not_ treat these two refspec formats the same for fetches.
The problem results from parsing refspecs, where the resulting
refspec has its destination set to an empty string in the case of
a trailing colon and to a `NULL` pointer in the case of no
trailing colon. When passing this to our DWIM machinery, the
empty string gets translated to "refs/heads/", which is simply
wrong.
Fix the problem by having the parsing machinery treat both cases
the same for fetch refspecs.
git only checks ceiling directories when its search ascends to a parent
directory. A ceiling directory matching the starting directory will not
prevent git from finding a repository in the starting directory or a
parent directory. libgit2 handled the former case correctly, but
differed from git in the latter case: given a ceiling directory matching
the starting directory, but no repository at the starting directory,
libgit2 would stop the search at that point rather than finding a
repository in a parent directory.
Test case using git command-line tools:
/tmp$ git init x
Initialized empty Git repository in /tmp/x/.git/
/tmp$ cd x/
/tmp/x$ mkdir subdir
/tmp/x$ cd subdir/
/tmp/x/subdir$ GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES=/tmp/x git rev-parse --git-dir
fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git
/tmp/x/subdir$ GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES=/tmp/x/subdir git rev-parse --git-dir
/tmp/x/.git
Fix the testsuite to test this case (in one case fixing a test that
depended on the current behavior), and then fix find_repo to handle this
case correctly.
In the process, simplify and document the logic in find_repo():
- Separate the concepts of "currently checking a .git directory" and
"number of iterations left before going further counts as a search"
into two separate variables, in_dot_git and min_iterations.
- Move the logic to handle in_dot_git and append /.git to the top of the
loop.
- Only search ceiling_dirs and find ceiling_offset after running out of
min_iterations; since ceiling_offset only tracks the longest matching
ceiling directory, if ceiling_dirs contained both the current
directory and a parent directory, this change makes find_repo stop the
search at the parent directory.
Read a tree into an index using `git_index_read_index` (by reading
a tree into a new index, then reading that index into the current
index), then write the index back out, ensuring that our new index
is treesame to the tree that we read.
While no extra header fields are defined for tags, git accepts them by
ignoring them and continuing the search for the message. There are a few
tags like this in the wild which git parses just fine, so we should do
the same.
When running as root, skip the unreadable file tests, because, well,
they're probably _not_ unreadable to root unless you've got some
crazy NSA clearance-level honoring operating system shit going on.
If we're looking for a symlink, realpath will give us the resolved path,
which is not what we're after, but a canonicalized version of the path
the user asked for.
When we turned strict object creation validation on by default, we
forgot to inform the refs::create tests of this. They, in fact,
believed that strict object creation was off by default. As a result,
their cleanup function went and turned strict object creation off for
the remaining tests.
If we cannot dwim the input, set the error message to be explicit about
that. Otherwise we leave the error for the last failed lookup, which
can be rather unexpected as it mentions a remote when the user thought
they were trying to look up a branch.
When passing -DUSE_OPENSSL:BOOL=OFF to cmake the testsuite will
fail with the following error:
core::stream::register_tls [/tmp/libgit2/tests/core/stream.c:40]
Function call failed: (error)
error -1 - <no message>
Fix test to assume failure for tls when built without openssl.
While at it also fix GIT_WIN32 cpp to check if it's defined
or not.
This special-casing ignores that we might have a locked file, so the
hashtable does not represent the contents of the file we want to
write. This causes multivar writes to overwrite entries instead of add
to them when under lock.
There is no need for this as the normal code-path will write to the file
just fine, so simply get rid of it.
The function to extract signatures suffers from a similar bug to the
header field finding one by having an unecessary line feed check as a
break condition of its loop.
Fix that and add a test for this single-line signature situation.
This ensures that when using OpenSSL a safe default set of ciphers
is selected. This is done so that the client communicates securely
and we don't accidentally enable unsafe ciphers like RC4, or even
worse some old export ciphers.
Implements the first part of https://github.com/libgit2/libgit2/issues/3682
Submodules don't exist in the objectdb and the code is making us try to
look for a blob with its commit id, which is obviously not going to
work.
Skip the test if the user wants to insert a submodule.
The index::nsec::staging_maintains_other_nanos test was created to
ensure that when we stage an entry when GIT_USE_NSECS is *unset* that
we truncate the index entry and do not persist the (old, invalid)
nanosec values. Ensure that when GIT_USE_NSECS is *set* that we do
not do that, and actually write the correct nanosecond values.
Allow `git_index_read` to handle reading existing indexes with
illegal entries. Allow the low-level `git_index_add` to add
properly formed `git_index_entry`s even if they contain paths
that would be illegal for the current filesystem (eg, `AUX`).
Continue to disallow `git_index_add_bypath` from adding entries
that are illegal universally illegal (eg, `.git`, `foo/../bar`).
Introduce a repository that contains some paths that were illegal
on PC-DOS circa 1981 (like `aux`, `con`, `com1`) and that in a
bizarre fit of retrocomputing, remain illegal on some "modern"
computers, despite being "new technology".
Introduce some aspirational tests that suggest that we should be
able to cope with trees and indexes that contain paths that
would be illegal on the filesystem, so that we can at least diff
them. Further ensure that checkout will not write a repository
with forbidden paths.
We should be checking whether the object we're looking up is a commit,
and we should let the caller know whether the not-found return code
comes from a bad object type or just a missing signature.
