Wolfgang Müller 99fc555188 rev-parse: fix segfault with missing --path-format argument
Calling "git rev-parse --path-format" without an argument segfaults
instead of giving an error message. Commit fac60b8925 (rev-parse: add
option for absolute or relative path formatting, 2020-12-13) added the
argument parsing code but forgot to handle NULL.

Returning an error makes sense here because there is no default value we
could use. Add a test case to verify.

Eric Wong a5cdca4520 t1500: ensure current --since= behavior remains
This behavior of git-rev-parse is observed since git 1.8.3.1
at least(*), and likely earlier versions.

At least one git-reliant project in-the-wild relies on this
current behavior of git-rev-parse being able to handle multiple
--since= arguments without squeezing identical results together.
So add a test to prevent the potential for regression in
downstream projects.

brian m. carlson fac60b8925 rev-parse: add option for absolute or relative path formatting
git rev-parse has several options which print various paths.  Some of
these paths are printed relative to the current working directory, and
some are absolute.

Normally, this is not a problem, but there are times when one wants
paths entirely in one format or another.  This can be done trivially if
the paths are canonical, but canonicalizing paths is not possible on
some shell scripting environments which lack realpath(1) and also in Go,
which lacks functions that properly canonicalize paths on Windows.

To help out the scripter, let's provide an option which turns most of
the paths printed by git rev-parse to be either relative to the current
working directory or absolute and canonical.  Document which options are
affected and which are not so that users are not confused.

This approach is cleaner and tidier than providing duplicates of
existing options which are either relative or absolute.

Note that if the user needs both forms, it is possible to pass an
additional option in the middle of the command line which changes the
behavior of subsequent operations.

Johannes Schindelin 06d531486e t[01]*: adjust the references to the default branch name "main"
Carefully excluding t1309, which sees independent development elsewhere
at the time of writing, we transition above-mentioned tests to the
default branch name `main`. This trick was performed via

	$ (cd t &&
	   sed -i -e 's/master/main/g' -e 's/MASTER/MAIN/g' \
		-e 's/Master/Main/g' -e 's/naster/nain/g' -- t[01]*.sh &&
	   git checkout HEAD -- t1309\*)

Note that t5533 contains a variation of the name `master` (`naster`)
that we rename here, too.

This allows us to define `GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME=main`
for those tests.

Johannes Schindelin 334afbc76f tests: mark tests relying on the current default for `init.defaultBranch`
In addition to the manual adjustment to let the `linux-gcc` CI job run
the test suite with `master` and then with `main`, this patch makes sure
that GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME is set in all test scripts
that currently rely on the initial branch name being `master by default.

To determine which test scripts to mark up, the first step was to
force-set the default branch name to `master` in

- all test scripts that contain the keyword `master`,

- t4211, which expects `t/t4211/history.export` with a hard-coded ref to
  initialize the default branch,

- t5560 because it sources `t/t556x_common` which uses `master`,

- t8002 and t8012 because both source `t/annotate-tests.sh` which also
  uses `master`)

This trick was performed by this command:

	$ sed -i '/^ *\. \.\/\(test-lib\|lib-\(bash\|cvs\|git-svn\)\|gitweb-lib\)\.sh$/i\
	GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME=master\
	export GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME\
	' $(git grep -l master t/t[0-9]*.sh) \
	t/t4211*.sh t/t5560*.sh t/t8002*.sh t/t8012*.sh

After that, careful, manual inspection revealed that some of the test
scripts containing the needle `master` do not actually rely on a
specific default branch name: either they mention `master` only in a
comment, or they initialize that branch specificially, or they do not
actually refer to the current default branch. Therefore, the
aforementioned modification was undone in those test scripts thusly:

	$ git checkout HEAD -- \
		t/t0027-auto-crlf.sh t/t0060-path-utils.sh \
		t/t1011-read-tree-sparse-checkout.sh \
		t/t1305-config-include.sh t/t1309-early-config.sh \

		t/t7508-status.sh t/t7606-merge-custom.sh \
		t/t9302-fast-import-unpack-limit.sh

We excluded one set of test scripts in these commands, though: the range
of `git p4` tests. The reason? `git p4` stores the (foreign) remote
branch in the branch called `p4/master`, which is obviously not the
default branch. Manual analysis revealed that only five of these tests
actually require a specific default branch name to pass; They were
modified thusly:

	$ sed -i '/^ *\. \.\/lib-git-p4\.sh$/i\
	GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME=master\
	export GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME\
	' t/t980[0167]*.sh t/t9811*.sh

Jeff King 2d92ab32fd rev-parse: make --show-toplevel without a worktree an error
Ever since it was introduced in 7cceca5ccc (Add 'git rev-parse
--show-toplevel' option., 2010-01-12), the --show-toplevel option has
treated a missing working tree as a quiet success: it neither prints a
toplevel path, but nor does it report any kind of error.

While a caller could distinguish this case by looking for an empty
response, the behavior is rather confusing. We're better off complaining
that there is no working tree, as other internal commands would do in
similar cases (e.g., "git status" or any builtin with NEED_WORK_TREE set
would just die()). So let's do the same here.

While we're at it, let's clarify the documentation and add some tests,
both for the new behavior and for the more mundane case (which was not
covered).

Since the transition plan allows for multiple input algorithms, document

Sam McKelvie c5cbb27cb5 rev-parse: --show-superproject-working-tree should work during a merge
Invoking 'git rev-parse --show-superproject-working-tree' exits with

    "fatal: BUG: returned path string doesn't match cwd?"

when the superproject has an unmerged entry for the current submodule,
instead of displaying the superproject's working tree.

The problem is due to the fact that when a merge of the submodule reference
is in progress, "git ls-files --stage —full-name <submodule-relative-path>”
returns three seperate entries for the submodule (one for each stage) rather
than a single entry; e.g.,

  $ git ls-files --stage --full-name submodule-child-test
  160000 dbbd2766fa330fa741ea59bb38689fcc2d283ac5 1       submodule-child-test

  160000 e6178f3a58b958543952e12824aa2106d560f21d 3       submodule-child-test

The code in get_superproject_working_tree() expected exactly one entry to
be returned; this patch makes it use the first entry if multiple entries
are returned.

Test t1500-rev-parse is extended to cover this case.

Johannes Schindelin 098aa86762 rev-parse: fix several options when running in a subdirectory
In addition to making git_path() aware of certain file names that need
to be handled differently e.g. when running in worktrees, the commit
557bd833bb (git_path(): be aware of file relocation in $GIT_DIR,
2014-11-30) also snuck in a new option for `git rev-parse`:
`--git-path`.

On the face of it, there is no obvious bug in that commit's diff: it
faithfully calls git_path() on the argument and prints it out, i.e. `git
rev-parse --git-path <filename>` has the same precise behavior as
calling `git_path("<filename>")` in C.

The problem lies deeper, much deeper. In hindsight (which is always
unfair), implementing the .git/ directory discovery in
`setup_git_directory()` by changing the working directory may have
allowed us to avoid passing around a struct that contains information
about the current repository, but it bought us many, many problems.

In this case, when being called in a subdirectory, `git rev-parse`
changes the working directory to the top-level directory before calling
`git_path()`. In the new working directory, the result is correct. But
in the working directory of the calling script, it is incorrect.

Example: when calling `git rev-parse --git-path HEAD` in, say, the
Documentation/ subdirectory of Git's own source code, the string
`.git/HEAD` is printed.

Side note: that bug is hidden when running in a subdirectory of a
worktree that was added by the `git worktree` command: in that case, the
(correct) absolute path of the `HEAD` file is printed.

In the interest of time, this patch does not go the "correct" route to
introduce a struct with repository information (and removing global
state in the process), instead this patch chooses to detect when the
command was called in a subdirectory and forces the result to be an
absolute path.

While at it, we are also fixing the output of --git-common-dir and
--shared-index-path.

Lastly, please note that we reuse the same strbuf for all of the
relative_path() calls; this avoids frequent allocation (and duplicated
code), and it does not risk memory leaks, for two reasons: 1) the
cmd_rev_parse() function does not return anywhere between the use of
the new strbuf instance and its final release, and 2) git-rev-parse is
one of these "one-shot" programs in Git, i.e. it exits after running
for a very short time, meaning that all allocated memory is released
with the exit() call anyway.

SZEDER Gábor a2f5a87626 rev-parse: add '--absolute-git-dir' option
The output of 'git rev-parse --git-dir' can be either a relative or an
absolute path, depending on whether the current working directory is
at the top of the worktree or the .git directory or not, or how the
path to the repository is specified via the '--git-dir=<path>' option
or the $GIT_DIR environment variable.  And if that output is a
relative path, then it is relative to the directory where any 'git
-C <path>' options might have led us.

This doesn't matter at all for regular scripts, because the git
wrapper automatically takes care of changing directories according to
the '-C <path>' options, and the scripts can then simply follow any
path returned by 'git rev-parse --git-dir', even if it's a relative
path.

Our Bash completion script, however, is unique in that it must run
directly in the user's interactive shell environment.  This means that
it's not executed through the git wrapper and would have to take care
of any '-C <path> options on its own, and it can't just change
directories as it pleases.  Consequently, adding support for taking
any '-C <path>' options on the command line into account during
completion turned out to be considerably more difficult, error prone
and required more subshells and git processes when it had to cope with
a relative path to the .git directory.

Help this rather special use case and teach 'git rev-parse' a new
'--absolute-git-dir' option which always outputs a canonicalized
absolute path to the .git directory, regardless of whether the path is
discovered automatically or is specified via $GIT_DIR or 'git
--git-dir=<path>'.

Eric Sunshine e6273f4da5 t1500: avoid setting environment variables outside of tests
Ideally, each test should be responsible for setting up state it needs

advantage of this new option to avoid polluting the global scope with
GIT_DIR assignments.

Implementation note: Typically, tests avoid polluting the global state
by wrapping transient environment variable assignments within a
subshell, however, this technique doesn't work here since test_config()
and test_unconfig() need to know GIT_DIR, as well, but neither function
can be used within a subshell. Consequently, GIT_DIR is instead cleared
manually via test_when_finished().

find its configuration file. Consequently, the global GIT_CONFIG
environment variable required by the manual git-config invocations
outside of tests is no longer needed, and is thus dropped.

Eric Sunshine d66f68ff98 t1500: be considerate to future potential tests
The final batch of git-rev-parse tests work against a non-local object
database named repo.git. This is done by renaming .git to repo.git and
pointing GIT_DIR at it, but the name is never restored to .git at the
end of the script, which can be problematic for tests added in the
future. Be more friendly by instead making repo.git a copy of .git.

Furthermore, make it clear that tests in repo.git will be independent
from the results of earlier tests done in .git by initializing repo.git
earlier in the test sequence.

Likewise, bundle remaining preparation (such as directory creation) into
a common setup test consistent with modern practice.

Jeff King 8bfa6bd647 fix config reading in tests
Previously, we set the GIT_CONFIG environment variable in
our tests so that only that file was read. However, setting
it to a static value is not correct, since we are not
necessarily always in the same directory; instead, we want
the usual git config file lookup to happen.

To do this, we stop setting GIT_CONFIG, which means that we
must now suppress the reading of the system-wide and user
configs.

This exposes an incorrect test in t1500, which is also
fixed (the incorrect test worked because we were failing to
read the core.bare value from the config file, since the

Johannes Schindelin 7efeb8f098 Reinstate the old behaviour when GIT_DIR is set and GIT_WORK_TREE is unset
The old behaviour was to unilaterally default to the cwd is the work tree
when GIT_DIR was set, but GIT_WORK_TREE wasn't, no matter if we are inside
the GIT_DIR, or if GIT_DIR is actually something like ../../../.git.

Johannes Schindelin e90fdc39b6 Clean up work-tree handling
The old version of work-tree support was an unholy mess, barely readable,
and not to the point.

For example, why do you have to provide a worktree, when it is not used?
As in "git status".  Now it works.

Another riddle was: if you can have work trees inside the git dir, why
are some programs complaining that they need a work tree?

IOW it is allowed to call

	$ git --git-dir=../ --work-tree=. bla

when you really want to.  In this case, you are both in the git directory
and in the working tree.  So, programs have to actually test for the right
thing, namely if they are inside a working tree, and not if they are
inside a git directory.

Also, GIT_DIR=../.git should behave the same as if no GIT_DIR was
specified, unless there is a repository in the current working directory.
It does now.

The logic to determine if a repository is bare, or has a work tree
(tertium non datur), is this:

--work-tree=bla overrides GIT_WORK_TREE, which overrides core.bare = true,
which overrides core.worktree, which overrides GIT_DIR/.. when GIT_DIR
ends in /.git, which overrides the directory in which .git/ was found.

In related news, a long standing bug was fixed: when in .git/bla/x.git/,
which is a bare repository, git formerly assumed ../.. to be the
appropriate git dir.  This problem was reported by Shawn Pearce to have
caused much pain, where a colleague mistakenly ran "git init" in "/" a
long time ago, and bare repositories just would not work.
