Add an EXPENSIVE_ON_WINDOWS prerequisite to mark those tests which are
very expensive to run on Windows, but cheap elsewhere.
Certain tests that heavily stress the filesystem or run a lot of shell
commands are disproportionately expensive on Windows, this
prerequisite will later be used by a tests that runs in 4-8 seconds on
a modern Linux system, but takes almost 10 minutes on Windows.
There's no reason to skip such tests by default on other platforms,
but Windows users shouldn't need to wait around while they finish.

Replace the perl/Makefile.PL and the fallback perl/Makefile used under
NO_PERL_MAKEMAKER=NoThanks with a much simpler implementation heavily
inspired by how the i18n infrastructure's build process works[1].
The reason for having the Makefile.PL in the first place is that it
was initially[2] building a perl C binding to interface with libgit,
this functionality, that was removed[3] before Git.pm ever made it to
the master branch.
We've since since started maintaining a fallback perl/Makefile, as
MakeMaker wouldn't work on some platforms[4]. That's just the tip of
the iceberg. We have the PM.stamp hack in the top-level Makefile[5] to
detect whether we need to regenerate the perl/perl.mak, which I fixed
just recently to deal with issues like the perl version changing from
under us[6].
There is absolutely no reason for why this needs to be so complex
anymore. All we're getting out of this elaborate Rube Goldberg machine
was copying perl/* to perl/blib/* as we do a string-replacement on
the *.pm files to hardcode @@LOCALEDIR@@ in the source, as well as
pod2man-ing Git.pm & friends.
So replace the whole thing with something that's pretty much a copy of
how we generate po/build/**.mo from po/*.po, just with a small sed(1)
command instead of msgfmt. As that's being done rename the files
from *.pm to *.pmc just to indicate that they're generated (see
"perldoc -f require").
While I'm at it, change the fallback for Error.pm from being something
where we'll ship our own Error.pm if one doesn't exist at build time
to one where we just use a Git::Error wrapper that'll always prefer
the system-wide Error.pm, only falling back to our own copy if it
really doesn't exist at runtime. It's now shipped as
Git::FromCPAN::Error, making it easy to add other modules to
Git::FromCPAN::* in the future if that's needed.
Functional changes:
* This will not always install into perl's idea of its global
"installsitelib". This only potentially matters for packagers that
need to expose Git.pm for non-git use, and as explained in the
INSTALL file there's a trivial workaround.
* The scripts themselves will 'use lib' the target directory, but if
INSTLIBDIR is set it overrides it. It doesn't have to be this way,
it could be set in addition to INSTLIBDIR, but my reading of [7] is
that this is the desired behavior.
* We don't build man pages for all of the perl modules as we used to,
only Git(3pm). As discussed on-list[8] that we were building
installed manpages for purely internal APIs like Git::I18N or
private-Error.pm was always a bug anyway, and all the Git::SVN::*
ones say they're internal APIs.
There are apparently external users of Git.pm, but I don't expect
there to be any of the others.
As a side-effect of these general changes the perl documentation
now only installed by install-{doc,man}, not a mere "install" as
before.

You may want to run the test suite with a different shell
than you use to build Git. For instance, you may build with
SHELL_PATH=/bin/sh (because it's faster, or it's what you
expect to exist on systems where the build will be used) but
want to run the test suite with bash (e.g., since that
allows using "-x" reliably across the whole test suite).
There's currently no good way to do this.
You might think that doing two separate make invocations,
like:
make &&
make -C t SHELL_PATH=/bin/bash
would work. And it _almost_ does. The second make will see
our bash SHELL_PATH, and we'll use that to run the
individual test scripts (or tell prove to use it to do so).
So far so good.
But this breaks down when "--tee" or "--verbose-log" is
used. Those options cause the test script to actually
re-exec itself using $SHELL_PATH. But wait, wouldn't our
second make invocation have set SHELL_PATH correctly in the
environment?
Yes, but test-lib.sh sources GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS, which we
built during the first "make". And that overrides the
environment, giving us the original SHELL_PATH again.
Let's introduce a new variable that lets you specify a
specific shell to be run for the test scripts. Note that we
have to touch both the main and t/ Makefiles, since we have
to record it in GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS in one, and use it in the
latter.

The "-x" tracing option implies "--verbose". This is a
problem when running under a TAP harness like "prove", where
we need to use "--verbose-log" instead. Instead, let's
handle this the same way we do for --valgrind, including the
recent fix from 88c6e9d31c (test-lib: --valgrind should not
override --verbose-log, 2017-09-05). Namely, let's enable
--verbose only when we know there isn't a more specific
verbosity option indicated.
Note that we also have to tweak `want_trace` to turn it on
(previously we just lumped $verbose_log in with $verbose,
but now we don't necessarily auto-set the latter).

When the test suite's "-x" option is used with bash, we end
up seeing cleanup cruft in the output:
$ bash t0001-init.sh -x
[...]
++ diff -u expected actual
+ test_eval_ret_=0
+ want_trace
+ test t = t
+ test t = t
+ set +x
ok 42 - re-init from a linked worktree
This ranges from mildly annoying (for a successful test) to
downright confusing (when we say "last command exited with
error", but it's really 5 commands back).
We normally are able to suppress this cleanup. As the
in-code comment explains, we can't convince the shell not to
print it, but we can redirect its stderr elsewhere.
But since d88785e424 (test-lib: set BASH_XTRACEFD
automatically, 2016-05-11), that doesn't hold for bash. It
sends the "set -x" output directly to descriptor 4, not to
stderr.
We can fix this by also redirecting descriptor 4, and
paying close attention to which commands redirected and
which are not (see the updated comment).
Two alternatives I considered and rejected:
- unsetting and setting BASH_XTRACEFD; doing so closes the
descriptor, which we must avoid
- we could keep everything in a single block as before,
redirect 4>/dev/null there, but retain 5>&4 as a copy.
And then selectively restore 4>&5 for commands which
should be allowed to trace. This would work, but the
descriptor swapping seems unnecessarily confusing.

Add LIBPCRE1 and LIBPCRE2 prerequisites which are true when git is

respectively.
The syntax of PCRE1 and PCRE2 isn't the same in all cases (see
pcresyntax(3) and pcre2syntax(3)). If test are added that test for
those they'll need to be guarded by these new prerequisites.
The subsequent patch will make use of LIBPCRE2, so LIBPCRE1 isn't
strictly needed for now, but let's add it for consistency and so that
checking for it doesn't have to be done with the less obvious "PCRE,
!LIBPCRE2", which while semantically the same is more confusing, and
would lead to bugs if PCRE v3 is ever released as the tests would mean
v1, not any non-v2 version.

The test for '--abbrev' in t4201-shortlog.sh assumes that the commits
generated in the test can always be uniquely abbreviated to 5 hex digits
but this is not always the case. If you were unlucky and happened to run
the test at (say) Thu Jun 22 03:04:49 2017 +0000, you would find that
the first commit generated would collide with a tree object created
later in the same test.
This can be simulated in the version of t4201-shortlog.sh prior to this
commit by setting GIT_COMMITTER_DATE and GIT_AUTHOR_DATE to 1498100689
after sourcing test-lib.sh.
Change the test to test --abbrev=35 instead of --abbrev=5 to almost
completely avoid the possibility of a partial collision and add a call
to test_tick in the setup to make the test repeatable (the latter alone
is sufficient to make it robust enough).

for the stack and file descriptors. However, it always returns success
and leads to several test prerequisites being erroneously set to true.
Add a check for cygwin and MinGW to the prerequisite expressions, using
a 'test_have_prereq !MINGW,!CYGWIN' clause, to guard against using ulimit.

We already set ASAN_OPTIONS to abort if it finds any errors.
As we start to experiment with LSAN, the leak sanitizer,
it's convenient if we give it the same treatment.
Note that ASAN is actually a superset of LSAN and can do the
leak detection itself. So this only has an effect if you
specifically build with "make SANITIZE=leak" (leak detection
but not the rest of ASAN). Building with just LSAN results
in a build that runs much faster. That makes the
build-test-fix cycle more pleasant.
In the long run, once we've fixed or suppressed all the
leaks, it will probably be worth turning leak-detection on
for ASAN and just using that (to check both leaks _and_
memory errors in a single test run). But there's still a lot
of work before we get there.

The --verbose test option cannot be used with test harnesses
like "prove". Instead, you must use --verbose-log.
Since the --valgrind option implies --verbose, that means
that it cannot be used with prove. I.e., this does not work:
prove t0000-basic.sh :: --valgrind
You'd think it could be fixed by doing:
prove t0000-basic.sh :: --valgrind --verbose-log
but that doesn't work either, because the implied --verbose
takes precedence over --verbose-log. If the user has given
us a specific option, we should prefer that.

sum(1) is a command for calculating checksums of the contents of files.
It was part of early editions of Unix ("Research Unix", 1972/1973, [1]).
cksum(1) appeared in 4.4BSD (1993) as a replacement [2], and became part
of POSIX.1-2008 [3]. OpenBSD 5.6 (2014) removed sum(1).
We only use sum(1) in t1002 to check for changes in three files. On
MinGW we use md5sum(1) instead. We could switch to the standard command
cksum(1) for all platforms; MinGW comes with GNU coreutils now, which
provides sum(1), cksum(1) and md5sum(1). Use our standard method for
checking for file changes instead: test_cmp.
It's more convenient because it shows differences nicely, it's faster on
MinGW because we have a special implementation there based only on
shell-internal commands, it's simpler as it allows us to avoid stripping
out unnecessary entries from the checksum file using grep(1), and it's
more consistent with the rest of the test suite.
We already compare changed files with their expected new contents using
diff(1), so we don't need to check with "test_must_fail test_cmp" if
they differ from their original state. A later patch could convert the
direct diff(1) calls to test_cmp as well.
With all sum(1) calls gone, remove the MinGW-specific implementation
from test-lib.sh as well.

Long ago in 628522ec14 (sha1-lookup: more memory efficient
search in sorted list of SHA-1, 2007-12-29) we added
sha1_entry_pos(), a binary search that uses the uniform
distribution of sha1s to scale the selection of mid-points.
As this was a performance experiment, we tied it to the
GIT_USE_LOOKUP environment variable and never enabled it by
default.
This code was successful in reducing the number of steps in
each search. But the overhead of the scaling ends up making
it slower when the cache is warm. Here are best-of-five
timings for running rev-list on linux.git, which will have
to look up every object:
$ time git rev-list --objects --all >/dev/null
real 0m35.357s
user 0m35.016s
sys 0m0.340s
$ time GIT_USE_LOOKUP=1 git rev-list --objects --all >/dev/null
real 0m37.364s
user 0m37.045s
sys 0m0.316s
The USE_LOOKUP version might have more benefit on a cold
cache, as the time to fault in each page would dominate. But
that would be for a single lookup. In practice, most
operations tend to look up many objects, and the whole pack
.idx will end up warm.
It's possible that the code could be better optimized to
compete with a naive binary search for the warm-cache case,
and we could have the best of both worlds. But over the
years nobody has done so, and this is largely dead code that
is rarely run outside of the test suite. Let's drop it in
the name of simplicity.
This lets us remove sha1_entry_pos() entirely, as the .idx
lookup code was the only caller. Note that sha1-lookup.c
still contains sha1_pos(), which differs from
sha1_entry_pos() in two ways:
- it has a different interface; it uses a function pointer
to access sha1 entries rather than a size/offset pair
describing the table's memory layout
- it only scales the initial selection of "mi", rather
than each iteration of the search
We can't get rid of this function, as it's called from
several places. It may be that we could replace it with a
simple binary search, but that's out of scope for this patch
(and would need benchmarking).

git to succeed, but not in a test_must_fail block.
Let's ask it to actually raise SIGABRT instead. That will

We turn off ASan's leak detection by default in the test
suite because it's too noisy. But we don't do so until
part-way through test-lib. This is before we've run any
tests, but after we do our initial "./git" to see if the
binary has even been built.
When built with clang, this seems to work fine. However,
using "gcc -fsanitize=address", the leak checker seems to
complain more aggressively:
$ ./git

This is a leak in the sense that we never free it, but it's
in a global that is meant to last the whole program. So it's
not really interesting or in need of fixing. And at any
rate, mentioning leaks outside of the test_expect blocks is
certainly unwelcome, as it pollutes stderr.
Let's bump the setting of ASAN_OPTIONS higher in test-lib.sh
to catch our initial "can we even run git?" test. While
we're at it, we can add a comment to make it a bit less

Add support for v2 of the PCRE API. This is a new major version of
PCRE that came out in early 2015[1].
The regular expression syntax is the same, but while the API is
similar, pretty much every function is either renamed or takes
different arguments. Thus using it via entirely new functions makes
sense, as opposed to trying to e.g. have one compile_pcre_pattern()
that would call either PCRE v1 or v2 functions.
Git can now be compiled with either USE_LIBPCRE1=YesPlease or
USE_LIBPCRE2=YesPlease, with USE_LIBPCRE=YesPlease currently being a
synonym for the former. Providing both is a compile-time error.
With earlier patches to enable JIT for PCRE v1 the performance of the
release versions of both libraries is almost exactly the same, with
PCRE v2 being around 1% slower.
However after I reported this to the pcre-dev mailing list[2] I got a
lot of help with the API use from Zoltán Herczeg, he subsequently
optimized some of the JIT functionality in v2 of the library.

I.e. the two are either neck-to-neck, but PCRE v2 usually pulls ahead,
when it does it's around 20% faster.
A brief note on thread safety: As noted in pcre2api(3) & pcre2jit(3)
the compiled pattern can be shared between threads, but not some of
the JIT context, however the grep threading support does all pattern &
JIT compilation in separate threads, so this code doesn't need to
concern itself with thread safety.
See commit 63e7e9d8b6 ("git-grep: Learn PCRE", 2011-05-09) for the
initial addition of PCRE v1. This change follows some of the same
patterns it did (and which were discussed on list at the time),
e.g. mocking up types with typedef instead of ifdef-ing them out when
USE_LIBPCRE2 isn't defined. This adds some trivial memory use to the
program, but makes the code look nicer.

Change the internal USE_LIBPCRE define, & build options flag to use a
naming convention ending in PCRE1, without changing the long-standing
USE_LIBPCRE Makefile flag which enables this code.
This is for preparation for libpcre2 support where having things like
USE_LIBPCRE and USE_LIBPCRE2 in any more places than we absolutely
need to for backwards compatibility with old Makefile arguments would
be confusing.
In some ways it would be better to change everything that now uses
USE_LIBPCRE to use USE_LIBPCRE1, and to make specifying
USE_LIBPCRE (or --with-pcre) an error. This would impose a one-time
burden on packagers of git to s/USE_LIBPCRE/USE_LIBPCRE1/ in their
build scripts.
However I'd like to leave the door open to making
USE_LIBPCRE=YesPlease eventually mean USE_LIBPCRE2=YesPlease,
i.e. once PCRE v2 is ubiquitous enough that it makes sense to make it
the default.
This code and the USE_LIBPCRE Makefile argument was added in commit
63e7e9d8b6 ("git-grep: Learn PCRE", 2011-05-09). At the time there was
no indication that the PCRE project would release an entirely new &
incompatible API around 3 years later.

Rename the LIBPCRE prerequisite to PCRE. This is for preparation for
libpcre2 support, where having just "LIBPCRE" would be confusing as it
implies v1 of the library.
None of these tests are incompatible between versions 1 & 2 of
libpcre, it's less confusing to give them a more general name to make
it clear that they work on both library versions.

Because TAP output does not like to see the remainder of the test
getting skipped after running one or more tests, bf4b7219
("test-lib.sh: Add check for invalid use of 'skip_all' facility",
2012-09-01) made sure that test_done errors out when this happens.
Instead, loosen the check so that we only pretend that the rest of
the test script did not exist in such a case. We'd lose a bit of
information (i.e. TAP does not notice that we are skipping some
tests), but not very much (i.e. TAP wasn't told how many tests are
skipped anyway).
This will allow inclusion of lib-httpd.sh in the middle of a test,
which will skip the remainder of the test scripts when tests that
involve web server are declined with GIT_TEST_HTTPD=false, for
example.

Some platforms have ulong that is smaller than time_t, and our
historical use of ulong for timestamp would mean they cannot
represent some timestamp that the platform allows. Invent a
separate and dedicated timestamp_t (so that we can distingiuish
timestamps and a vanilla ulongs, which along is already a good
move), and then declare uintmax_t is the type to be used as the
timestamp_t.
* js/larger-timestamps:
archive-tar: fix a sparse 'constant too large' warning
use uintmax_t for timestamps
date.c: abort if the system time cannot handle one of our timestamps
timestamp_t: a new data type for timestamps
PRItime: introduce a new "printf format" for timestamps
parse_timestamp(): specify explicitly where we parse timestamps
t0006 & t5000: skip "far in the future" test when time_t is too limited
t0006 & t5000: prepare for 64-bit timestamps
ref-filter: avoid using `unsigned long` for catch-all data type
Attempt to allow us notice "fishy" situation where we fail to
remove the temporary directory used during the test.
* dt/gc-ignore-old-gc-logs:
test-lib: retire $remove_trash variable
test-lib.sh: do not barf under --debug at the end of the test
test-lib: abort when can't remove trash directory
The convention "$remove_trash is set to the trash directory that is
used during the test, so that it will be removed at the end, but
under --debug option we set the varilable to empty string to
preserve the directory" made sense back when it was introduced, as
there was no $TRASH_DIRECTORY variable. These days, since no tests
looks at the variable, it is obscure and even risks that by mistake
the variable gets used for something else (e.g. remove_trash=yes)
and cause us misbehave. Worse yet, remove_trash was not initialized
to an empty string at the beginning, so a stray environment variable
the user has could have affected the logic when "--debug" is in use.
Rewrite the clean-up sequence in test_done helper to explicitly
check the $debug condition and remove the trash directory using
the $TRASH_DIRECTORY variable.
Note that "go to the directory one level above the trash and then
remove it" is kept and this is deliverate; test_at_end_hook_ will
keep running from the expected location, and also some platforms may
not like a directory that is serving as the $cwd of a still-active
process removed.

The original did "does $remove_trash exist? Then go one level above
and remove it". There was no problem under "--debug", where
the variable is left empty, as the first "test -d $remove_trash" would
have said "No, it doesn't".
With the check implemented in the previous step, we'd always get an
error under "--debug".

We had two similar bugs in the tests sporadically triggering error
messages during the removal of the trash directory, see commits
bb05510e5 (t5510: run auto-gc in the foreground, 2016-05-01) and
ef09036cf (t6500: wait for detached auto gc at the end of the test
script, 2017-04-13). The test script succeeded nonetheless, because
these errors are ignored during housekeeping in 'test_done'.
However, such an error is a sign that something is fishy in the test
script. Print an error message and abort the test script when the
trash directory can't be removed successfully or is already removed,
because that's unexpected and we would prefer somebody notice and
figure out why.

Git's source code refers to timestamps as unsigned long, which is
ill-defined, as there is no guarantee about the number of bits that
data type has.
In preparation of switching to another data type that is large enough
to hold "far in the future" dates, we need to prepare the t0006-date.sh
script for the case where we *still* cannot format those dates if the
system library uses 32-bit time_t.

Git's source code refers to timestamps as unsigned longs. On 32-bit
platforms, as well as on Windows, unsigned long is not large enough to
capture dates that are "absurdly far in the future".
It is perfectly valid by the C standard, of course, for the `long` data
type to refer to 32-bit integers. That is why the `time_t` data type
exists: so that it can be 64-bit even if `long` is 32-bit. Git's source
code simply uses an incorrect data type for timestamps, is all.
The earlier quick fix 6b9c38e14c (t0006: skip "far in the future" test
when unsigned long is not long enough, 2016-07-11) papered over this
issue simply by skipping the respective test cases on platforms where
they would fail due to the data type in use.
This quick fix, however, tests for *long* to be 64-bit or not. What we
need, though, is a test that says whether *whatever data type we use for
timestamps* is 64-bit or not.
The same quick fix was used to handle the similar problem where Git's
source code uses `unsigned long` to represent size, instead of `size_t`,
conflating the two issues.
So let's just add another prerequisite to test specifically whether
timestamps are represented by a 64-bit data type or not. Later, after we
switch to a larger data type, we can flip that prerequisite to test
`time_t` instead of `long`.

We found a few run-away here documents that are started with an
end-of-here-doc marker that is incorrectly spelled, e.g.
git some command >actual &&
cat <<EOF >expect
...
EOF &&
test_cmp expect actual
which ends up slurping the entire remainder of the script as if it
were the data. Often the command that gets misused like this exits
without failure (e.g. "cat" in the above example), which makes the
command appear to work, without ever executing the remainder of the
test.
Piggy-back on the test that catches &&-chain breakage to detect this
case as well.

The 'debug' test helper is supposed to facilitate debugging by running
a command of the test suite under gdb. Unfortunately, its usefulness
is severely limited, because that gdb session is not interactive,
since the test's, and thus gdb's standard input is redirected from
/dev/null (for a good reason, see 781f76b15 (test-lib: redirect stdin
of tests, 2011-12-15)).
Redirect gdb's standard file descriptors from/to the test
environment's stdin, stdout and stderr in the 'debug' helper, thus
creating an interactive gdb session (even in non-verbose mode), which
is much, much more useful.

Eric Wong reported that while FreeBSD has a /usr/bin/unzip, it uses
different semantics from those that are needed by Git's tests: When
passing the -a option to Info-Zip, it heeds the text attribute of the
.zip file's central directory, while FreeBSD's unzip ignores that
attribute.
The common work-around is to install Info-Zip on FreeBSD, into
/usr/local/bin/.

The Travis CI configuration we ship ran the tests with --verbose
option but this risks non-TAP output that happens to be "ok" to be
misinterpreted as TAP signalling a test that passed. This resulted
in unnecessary failure. This has been corrected by introducing a

output separately to the log file.
