Junio C Hamano 3eebb3e044 Merge branch 'rs/archive-plug-leak-refname'
Memleak fix.

* rs/archive-plug-leak-refname:
  archive: release refname after use
2020-11-25 15:24:53 -08:00
René Scharfe 1c3e412916 archive: release refname after use
parse_treeish_arg() uses dwim_ref() to set refname to a strdup'd string.
Release it after use.  Also remove the const qualifier from the refname
member to signify that ownership of the string is handed to the struct,
leaving cleanup duty with the caller of parse_treeish_arg(), thus
avoiding a cast.

René Scharfe cde8ea9c66 archive: support compression levels beyond 9
Compression programs like zip, gzip, bzip2 and xz allow to adjust the
trade-off between CPU cost and size gain with numerical options from -1
for fast compression and -9 for high compression ratio.  zip also
accepts -0 for storing files verbatim.  git archive directly support
these single-digit compression levels for ZIP output and passes them to
filters like gzip.

Zstandard additionally supports compression level options -10 to -19, or
up to -22 with --ultra.  This *seems* to work with git archive in most
cases, e.g. it will produce an archive with -19 without complaining, but
since it only supports single-digit compression level options this is
the same as -1 -9 and thus -9.

Allow git archive to accept multi-digit compression levels to support
the full range supported by zstd.  Explicitly reject them for the ZIP
format, as otherwise deflateInit2() would just fail with a somewhat
cryptic "stream consistency error".

Centralize reading of symlink destinations and the contents of regular
files that are too small to be streamed.  This reduces code duplication

brian m. carlson c397aac02f convert: provide additional metadata to filters
Now that we have the codebase wired up to pass any additional metadata
to filters, let's collect the additional metadata that we'd like to
pass.

The two main places we pass this metadata are checkouts and archives.
In these two situations, reading HEAD isn't a valid option, since HEAD
isn't updated for checkouts until after the working tree is written and
archives can accept an arbitrary tree.  In other situations, HEAD will
usually reflect the refname of the branch in current use.

We pass a smaller amount of data in other cases, such as git cat-file,
where we can really only logically know about the blob.

This commit updates only the parts of the checkout code where we don't
use unpack_trees.  That function and callers of it will be handled in a
future commit.

In the archive code, we leak a small amount of memory, since nothing we
pass in the archiver argument structure is freed.

Denton Liu 554544276a *.[ch]: remove extern from function declarations using spatch
There has been a push to remove extern from function declarations.
Remove some instances of "extern" for function declarations which are
caught by Coccinelle. Note that Coccinelle has some difficulty with
processing functions with `__attribute__` or varargs so some `extern`
declarations are left behind to be dealt with in a future patch.

This was the Coccinelle patch used:

	@@
	type T;
	identifier f;
	@@
	- extern
	  T f(...);

and it was run with:

	$ git ls-files \*.{c,h} |
		grep -v ^compat/ |
		xargs spatch --sp-file contrib/coccinelle/noextern.cocci --in-place

Files under `compat/` are intentionally excluded as some are directly
copied from external sources and we should avoid churning them as much
as possible.

Josh Steadmon 00436bf1b1 archive: initialize archivers earlier
Initialize archivers as soon as possible when running git-archive.
Various non-obvious behavior depends on having the archivers
initialized, such as determining the desired archival format from the
provided filename.

Since 08716b3c11 ("archive: refactor file extension format-guessing",
2011-06-21), archive_format_from_filename() has used the registered
archivers to match filenames (provided via --output) to archival
formats. However, when git-archive is executed with --remote, format
detection happens before the archivers have been registered. This causes
archives from remotes to always be generated as TAR files, regardless of
the actual filename (unless an explicit --format is provided).

This patch fixes that behavior; archival format is determined properly
from the output filename, even when --remote is used.

Johannes Schindelin dddbad728c timestamp_t: a new data type for timestamps
Git's source code assumes that unsigned long is at least as precise as
time_t. Which is incorrect, and causes a lot of problems, in particular
where unsigned long is only 32-bit (notably on Windows, even in 64-bit
versions).

So let's just use a more appropriate data type instead. In preparation
for this, we introduce the new `timestamp_t` data type.

By necessity, this is a very, very large patch, as it has to replace all
timestamps' data type in one go.

As we will use a data type that is not necessarily identical to `time_t`,
we need to be very careful to use `time_t` whenever we interact with the
system functions, and `timestamp_t` everywhere else.

Jeff King 56baa61d01 archive: move file extension format-guessing lower
The process for guessing an archive output format based on
the filename is something like this:

  a. parse --output in cmd_archive; check the filename
     against a static set of mapping heuristics (right now
     it just matches ".zip" for zip files).

  b. if found, stick a fake "--format=zip" at the beginning
     of the arguments list (if the user did specify a
     --format manually, the later option will override our
     fake one)

  c. if it's a remote call, ship the arguments to the remote
     (including the fake), which will call write_archive on
     their end

  d. if it's local, ship the arguments to write_archive
     locally

There are two problems:

  1. The set of mappings is static and at too high a level.
     The write_archive level is going to check config for
     user-defined formats, some of which will specify
     extensions. We need to delay lookup until those are
     parsed, so we can match against them.

  2. For a remote archive call, our set of mappings (or
     formats) may not match the remote side's. This is OK in
     practice right now, because all versions of git
     understand "zip" and "tar". But as new formats are
     added, there is going to be a mismatch between what the
     client can do and what the remote server can do.

To fix (1), this patch refactors the location guessing to
happen at the write_archive level, instead of the
cmd_archive level. So instead of sticking a fake --format
field in the argv list, we actually pass a "name hint" down
the callchain; this hint is used at the appropriate time to
guess the format (if one hasn't been given already).

This patch leaves (2) unfixed. The name_hint is converted to
a "--format" option as before, and passed to the remote.
This means the local side's idea of how extensions map to
formats will take precedence.

Another option would be to pass the name hint to the remote
side and let the remote choose. This isn't a good idea for
two reasons:

  1. There's no room in the protocol for passing that
     information. We can pass a new argument, but older
     versions of git on the server will choke on it.

  2. Letting the remote side decide creates a silent
     inconsistency in user experience. Consider the case
     that the locally installed git knows about the "tar.gz"
     format, but a remote server doesn't.

     Running "git archive -o foo.tar.gz" will use the tar.gz
     format. If we use --remote, and the local side chooses
     the format, then we send "--format=tar.gz" to the
     remote, which will complain about the unknown format.
     But if we let the remote side choose the format, then
     it will realize that it doesn't know about "tar.gz" and
     output uncompressed tar without even issuing a warning.

Jeff King 4d7c989863 archive: pass archiver struct to write_archive callback
The current archivers are very static; when you are in the
write_tar_archive function, you know you are writing a tar.
However, to facilitate runtime-configurable archivers
that will share a common write function we need to tell the
function which archiver was used.

As a convenience, we also provide an opaque data pointer in
the archiver struct so that individual archivers can put
something useful there when they register themselves.
Technically they could just use the "name" field to look in
an internal map of names to data, but this is much simpler.

Jeff King 13e0f88d4a archive: refactor list of archive formats
Most of the tar and zip code was nicely split out into two
abstracted files which knew only about their specific
formats. The entry point to this code was a single "write
archive" function.

However, as these basic formats grow more complex (e.g., by
handling multiple file extensions and format names), a
static list of the entry point functions won't be enough.
Instead, let's provide a way for the tar and zip code to
tell the main archive code what they support by registering
archiver names and functions.

René Scharfe 3a176c6cde archive: make zip compression level independent from core git
zlib_compression_level is the compression level used for git's object store.
It's 1 by default, which is the fastest setting.  This variable is also used
as the default compression level for ZIP archives created by git archive.

For archives, however, zlib's own default of 6 is more appropriate, as it's
favouring small size over speed -- archive creation is not that performance
critical most of the time.

level setting.  It affects invocations of git archive without explicitly
specified compression level option, only.

limited by the underlying function format_commit_message(), though.
E.g. currently there is no placeholder for git-describe like output,
and expanded specfiles can't contain NUL bytes.  That can be fixed

Franck Bui-Huu 4df096a5ca Add git-archive
git-archive is a command to make TAR and ZIP archives of a git tree.
It helps prevent a proliferation of git-{format}-tree commands.

Instead of directly calling git-{tar,zip}-tree command, it defines
a very simple API, that archiver should implement and register in
"git-archive.c". This API is made up by 2 functions whose prototype
is defined in "archive.h" file.

 - The first one is used to parse 'extra' parameters which have
   signification only for the specific archiver. That would allow
   different archive backends to have different kind of options.

 - The second one is used to ask to an archive backend to build
   the archive given some already resolved parameters.

The main reason for making this API is to avoid using
git-{tar,zip}-tree commands, hence making them useless. Maybe it's
time for them to die ?

It also implements remote operations by defining a very simple
protocol: it first sends the name of the specific uploader followed
the repository name (git-upload-tar git://example.org/repo.git).
Then it sends options. It's done by sending a sequence of one
argument per packet, with prefix "argument ", followed by a flush.

The remote protocol is implemented in "git-archive.c" for client
side and is triggered by "--remote=<repo>" option. For example,
to fetch a TAR archive in a remote repo, you can issue:

$ git archive --format=tar --remote=git://xxx/yyy/zzz.git HEAD

We choose to not make a new command "git-fetch-archive" for example,
avoind one more GIT command which should be nice for users (less
commands to remember, keeps existing --remote option).
