Johannes Schindelin ce83eadd9a real_pathdup(): fix callsites that wanted it to die on error
In 4ac9006f83 (real_path: have callers use real_pathdup and
strbuf_realpath, 2016-12-12), we changed the xstrdup(real_path())
pattern to use real_pathdup() directly.

The problem with this change is that real_path() calls
strbuf_realpath() with die_on_error = 1 while real_pathdup() calls
it with die_on_error = 0. Meaning that in cases where real_path()
causes Git to die() with an error message, real_pathdup() is silent
and returns NULL instead.

The callers, however, are ill-prepared for that change, as they expect
the return value to be non-NULL (and otherwise the function died
with an appropriate error message).

Fix this by extending real_pathdup()'s signature to accept the
die_on_error flag and simply pass it through to strbuf_realpath(),
and then adjust all callers after a careful audit whether they would
handle NULLs well.

Cornelius Weig 341fb28621 refs: add option core.logAllRefUpdates = always
When core.logallrefupdates is true, we only create a new reflog for refs
that are under certain well-known hierarchies. The reason is that we
know that some hierarchies (like refs/tags) are not meant to change, and
that unknown hierarchies might not want reflogs at all (e.g., a
hypothetical refs/foo might be meant to change often and drop old
history immediately).

However, sometimes it is useful to override this decision and simply log
for all refs, because the safety and audit trail is more important than
the performance implications of keeping the log around.

This patch introduces a new "always" mode for the core.logallrefupdates
option which will log updates to everything under refs/, regardless
where in the hierarchy it is (we still will not log things like
ORIG_HEAD and FETCH_HEAD, which are known to be transient).

Junio C Hamano 53eb85e623 Merge branch 'nd/init-core-worktree-in-multi-worktree-world'
"git init" tried to record core.worktree in the repository's
'config' file when GIT_WORK_TREE environment variable was set and
it was different from where GIT_DIR appears as ".git" at its top,
but the logic was faulty when .git is a "gitdir:" file that points
at the real place, causing trouble in working trees that are
managed by "git worktree".  This has been corrected.

Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy 6311cfaf93 init: do not set unnecessary core.worktree
The function needs_work_tree_config() that is called from
create_default_files() is supposed to be fed the path to ".git" that
looks as if it is at the top of the working tree, and decide if that
location matches the actual worktree being used.  This comparison allows
"git init" to decide if core.worktree needs to be recorded in the
working tree.

In the current code, however, we feed the return value from
get_git_dir(), which can be totally different from what the function
expects when "gitdir" file is involved.  Instead of giving the path to
the ".git" at the top of the working tree, we end up feeding the actual
path that the file points at.

This original location of ".git" however is only known to init_db().
Make init_db() save it and have it passed to create_default_files() as a
new parameter, which passes the correct location down to
needs_work_tree_config() to fix this.

Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy fe9aa0b22e init: correct re-initialization from a linked worktree
When 'git init' is called from a linked worktree, we treat '.git'
dir (which is $GIT_COMMON_DIR/worktrees/something) as the main
'.git' (i.e. $GIT_COMMON_DIR) and populate the whole repository skeleton
in there. It does not harm anything (*) but it is still wrong.

Since 'git init' calls set_git_dir() at preparation time, which
indirectly calls get_common_dir() and correctly detects multiple
worktree setup, all git_path_buf() calls in create_default_files() will
return correct paths in both single and multiple worktree setups. The
only thing left is copy_templates(), which targets $GIT_DIR, not
$GIT_COMMON_DIR.

Fix that with get_git_common_dir(). This function will return $GIT_DIR
in single-worktree setup, so we don't have to make a special case for
multiple-worktree here.

(*) It does in fact, thanks to another bug. More on that later.

Jeff King 4543926ba8 init: reset cached config when entering new repo
After we copy the templates into place, we re-read the
config in case we copied in a default config file. But since
git_config() is backed by a cache these days, it's possible
that the call will not actually touch the filesystem at all;
we need to tell it that something has changed behind the
scenes.

Note that we also need to reset the shared_repository
config. At first glance, it seems like this should probably
just be folded into git_config_clear(). But unfortunately
that is not quite right. The shared repository value may
come from config, _or_ it may have been set manually. So
only the caller who knows whether or not they set it is the
one who can clear it (and indeed, if you _do_ put it into
git_config_clear(), then many tests fail, as we have to
clear the config cache any time we set a new config
variable).

There are three tests here. The first two actually pass
already, though it's largely luck: they just don't happen to
actually read any config before we enter the new repo.

But the third one does fail without this patch; we look at
core.sharedrepository while creating the directory, but need
to make sure the value from the template config overrides
it.

Jeff King f1c126bd8b setup: set startup_info->have_repository more reliably
When setup_git_directory() is called, we set a flag in
startup_info to indicate we have a repository. But there are
a few other mechanisms by which we might set up a repo:

  1. When creating a new repository via init_db(), we
     transition from no-repo to being in a repo. We should
     tweak this flag at that moment.

  2. In enter_repo(), a stricter form of
     setup_git_directory() used by server-side programs, we
     check the repository format config. After doing so, we
     know we're in a repository, and can set the flag.

With these changes, library code can now reliably tell
whether we are in a repository and act accordingly. We'll
leave the "prefix" field as NULL, which is what happens when
setup_git_directory() finds there is no prefix.

Jeff King 9c28390bda init: use strbufs to store paths
The init code predates strbufs, and uses PATH_MAX-sized
buffers along with many manual checks on intermediate sizes
(some of which make magic assumptions, such as that init
will not create a path inside .git longer than 50
characters).

We can simplify this greatly by using strbufs, which drops
some hard-to-verify strcpy calls in favor of git_path_buf.
While we're in the area, let's also convert existing calls
to git_path to the safer git_path_buf (our existing calls
were passed to pretty tame functions, and so were not a
problem, but it's easy to be consistent and safe here).

Note that we had an explicit test that "git init" rejects
long template directories. This comes from 32d1776 (init: Do
not segfault on big GIT_TEMPLATE_DIR environment variable,
2009-04-18). We can drop the test_must_fail here, as we now
accept this and need only confirm that we don't segfault,
which was the original point of the test.

Jeff King fdf729661a probe_utf8_pathname_composition: use internal strbuf
When we are initializing a .git directory, we may call
probe_utf8_pathname_composition to detect utf8 mangling. We
pass in a path buffer for it to use, and it blindly
strcpy()s into it, not knowing whether the buffer is large
enough to hold the result or not.

In practice this isn't a big deal, because the buffer we
pass in already contains "$GIT_DIR/config", and we append
only a few extra bytes to it. But we can easily do the right
thing just by calling git_path_buf ourselves. Technically
this results in a different pathname (before we appended our
utf8 characters to the "config" path, and now they get their
own files in $GIT_DIR), but that should not matter for our
purposes.

We sometimes sprintf into fixed-size buffers when we know

because it's a constant, or because it's numeric input that

However, these sites make it hard to audit sprintf and
strcpy calls for buffer overflows, as a reader has to
cross-reference the size of the array with the input. Let's
use xsnprintf instead, which communicates to a reader that
we don't expect this to overflow (and catches the mistake in

Jeff King 84ccad8dec init: don't set core.worktree when initializing /.git
If you create a git repository in the root directory with
"git init /", we erroneously write a core.worktree entry.
This isn't _wrong_, in the sense that it's OK to set
core.worktree when we don't need to. But it is unnecessarily
surprising if you later move the .git directory to another
path (which usually moves the relative working tree, but is
foiled if there is an explicit worktree set).

The problem is that we check whether core.worktree is
necessary by seeing if we can make the git_dir by
concatenating "/.git" onto the working tree. That would lead
to "//.git" in this instance, but we actually have "/.git"
(without the doubled slash).

We can fix this by special-casing the root directory. I also
split the logic out into its own function to make the
conditional a bit more readable (and used skip_prefix, which
I think makes it a little more obvious what is going on).

No tests, as we would need to be able to write to "/" to do
so. I did manually confirm that:

  sudo git init /
  cd /
  git rev-parse --show-toplevel
  git config core.worktree

still finds the top-level correctly (as "/"), and does not
set any core.worktree variable.

This fixes common problems in these code about error handling,
forgetting to close the file handle after fprintf() fails, or not
printing out the error string..

Junio C Hamano 59362e560d system_path(): always return free'able memory to the caller
The function sometimes returns a newly allocated string and
sometimes returns a borrowed string, the latter of which the callers
must not free().  The existing callers all assume that the return
value belongs to the callee and most of them copy it with strdup()
when they want to keep it around.  They end up leaking the returned
copy when the callee returned a new string because they cannot tell
if they should free it.

Change the contract between the callers and system_path() to make
the returned string owned by the callers; they are responsible for
freeing it when done, but they do not have to make their own copy to
store it away.

Adjust the callers to make sure they do not leak the returned string
once they are done, but do not bother freeing it just before dying,
exiting or exec'ing other program to avoid unnecessary churn.

Torsten Bögershausen c7bf68d6b4 init-db: improve the filemode trustability check
Some file systems do not support the executable bit:

  a) The user executable bit is always 0, e.g. VFAT mounted with
     -onoexec

  b) The user executable bit is always 1, e.g. cifs mounted with
     -ofile_mode=0755

  c) There are system where user executable bit is 1 even if it
     should be 0 like b), but the file mode can be maintained
     locally. chmod -x changes the file mode from 0766 to 0666,
     until the file system is unmounted and remounted and the file
     mode is 0766 again.

     This been observed when a Windows machine with NTFS exports a share to
     Mac OS X via smb or afp.

Case a) and b) are handled by the current code.  Case c) qualifies
as "non trustable executable bit" and core.filemode should be false,
but this is currently not done.

Detect when ".git/config" has the user executable bit set after
creat(".git/config", 0666) and set core.filemode to false.  Because
the permission bits on the file is whatever the end user already had
when we are asked to reinitialise an existing repository, and do not
give any information on the filesystem behaviour, do this only when
running "git init" to create a new repository.

Michael Haggerty 1f32ecffd8 create_default_files(): don't set u+x bit on $GIT_DIR/config
Since time immemorial, the test of whether to set "core.filemode"
has been done by trying to toggle the u+x bit on $GIT_DIR/config,
which we know always exists, and then testing whether the change
"took".  I find it somewhat odd to use the config file for this
test, but whatever.

The test code didn't set the u+x bit back to its original state
itself, instead relying on the subsequent call to git_config_set()
to re-write the config file with correct permissions.

But ever since

    daa22c6f8d config: preserve config file permissions on edits (2014-05-06)

git_config_set() copies the permissions from the old config file to
the new one.  This is a good change in and of itself, but it
invalidates the create_default_files()'s assumption, causing "git
init" to leave the executable bit set on $GIT_DIR/config.

Reset the permissions on $GIT_DIR/config when we are done with the
test in create_default_files().

René Scharfe 2d186c8be5 init: avoid superfluous real_path() calls
Feeding the result of a real_path() call to real_path() again doesn't
change that result -- the returned path won't get any more real.  Avoid
such a double call in set_git_dir_init() and for the same reason stop
calling real_path() before feeding paths to set_git_work_tree(), as the
latter already takes care of that.

Jiang Xin 47fbfded53 i18n: only extract comments marked with "TRANSLATORS:"
When extract l10n messages, we use "--add-comments" option to keep
comments right above the l10n messages for references.  But sometimes
irrelevant comments are also extracted.  For example in the following
code block, the comment in line 2 will be extracted as comment for the
l10n message in line 3, but obviously it's wrong.

        { OPTION_CALLBACK, 0, "ignore-removal", &addremove_explicit,
          NULL /* takes no arguments */,
          N_("ignore paths removed in the working tree (same as
          --no-all)"),
          PARSE_OPT_NOARG, ignore_removal_cb },

Since almost all comments for l10n translators are marked with the same
prefix (tag): "TRANSLATORS:", it's safe to only extract comments with
this special tag.  I.E. it's better to call xgettext as:

        xgettext --add-comments=TRANSLATORS: ...

Also tweaks the multi-line comment in "init-db.c", to make it start with
the proper tag, not "* TRANSLATORS:" (which has a star before the tag).

Michael Haggerty f3565c0ca5 cmd_init_db(): when creating directories, handle errors conservatively
safe_create_leading_directories_const() returns a non-zero value on
error.  The old code at this calling site recognized a couple of
particular error values, and treated all other return values as
success.  Instead, be more conservative: recognize the errors we are
interested in, but treat any other nonzero values as failures.  This
is more robust in case somebody adds another possible return value
without telling us.

Christian Couder 5955654823 replace {pre,suf}fixcmp() with {starts,ends}_with()
Leaving only the function definitions and declarations so that any
new topic in flight can still make use of the old functions, replace
existing uses of the prefixcmp() and suffixcmp() with new API
functions.

The change can be recreated by mechanically applying this:

    $ git grep -l -e prefixcmp -e suffixcmp -- \*.c |
      grep -v strbuf\\.c |
      xargs perl -pi -e '
        s|!prefixcmp\(|starts_with\(|g;
        s|prefixcmp\(|!starts_with\(|g;
        s|!suffixcmp\(|ends_with\(|g;
        s|suffixcmp\(|!ends_with\(|g;
      '
