Once upon a time, Matheus wrote some patches to make
git grep [--cached | <REVISION>] ...
restrict its output to the sparsity specification when working in a
sparse checkout[1]. That effort got derailed by two things:
(1) The --sparse-index work just beginning which we wanted to avoid
creating conflicts for
(2) Never deciding on flag and config names and planned high level
behavior for all commands.
More recently, Shaoxuan implemented a more limited form of Matheus'
patches that only affected --cached, using a different flag name,
but also changing the default behavior in line with what Matheus did.
This again highlighted the fact that we never decided on command line
flag names, config option names, and the big picture path forward.
The --sparse-index work has been mostly complete (or at least released
into production even if some small edges remain) for quite some time
now. We have also had several discussions on flag and config names,
though we never came to solid conclusions. Stolee once upon a time
suggested putting all these into some document in
Documentation/technical[3], which Victoria recently also requested[4].
I'm behind the times, but here's a patch attempting to finally do that.

In b3b1a21d1a (sequencer: rewrite update-refs as user edits todo list,
2022-07-19), the 'todo_list_filter_update_refs()' step was added to handle
the removal of 'update-ref' lines from a 'rebase-todo'. Specifically, it
removes potential ref updates from the "update refs state" if a ref does not
have a corresponding 'update-ref' line.
However, because 'write_update_refs_state()' will not update the state if
the 'refs_to_oids' list was empty, removing *all* 'update-ref' lines will
result in the state remaining unchanged from how it was initialized (with
all refs' "after" OID being null). Then, when the ref update is applied, all
refs will be updated to null and consequently deleted.
To fix this, delete the 'update-refs' state file when 'refs_to_oids' is
empty. Additionally, add a tests covering "all update-ref lines removed"
cases.

When using sparse checkout, clear_skip_worktree_from_present_files() must
enumerate index entries to find ones with the SKIP_WORKTREE bit to
determine whether those index entries exist on disk (in which case their
SKIP_WORKTREE bit should be removed).
In a large repository, this may take considerable time depending on the
size of the index.
Add a trace2 region to surface this information, keeping a count of how

This commit fixes a bug when parsing tags that have CRLF line endings, a
signature, and no body, like this (the "^M" are marking the CRs):
this is the subject^M
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE-----^M
^M
...some stuff...^M
-----END PGP SIGNATURE-----^M
When trying to find the start of the body, we look for a blank line
separating the subject and body. In this case, there isn't one. But we
search for it using strstr(), which will find the blank line in the
signature.
In the non-CRLF code path, we check whether the line we found is past
the start of the signature, and if so, put the body pointer at the start
of the signature (effectively making the body empty). But the CRLF code
path doesn't catch the same case, and we end up with the body pointer in
the middle of the signature field. This has two visible problems:
- printing %(contents:subject) will show part of the signature, too,
since the subject length is computed as (body - subject)
- the length of the body is (sig - body), which makes it negative.
Asking for %(contents:body) causes us to cast this to a very large
size_t when we feed it to xmemdupz(), which then complains about
trying to allocate too much memory.
These are essentially the same bugs fixed in the previous commit, except
that they happen when there is a CRLF blank line in the signature,
rather than no blank line at all. Both are caused by the refactoring in
9f75ce3d8f (ref-filter: handle CRLF at end-of-line more gracefully,
2020-10-29).
We can fix this by doing the same "sigstart" check that we do in the
non-CRLF case. And rather than repeat ourselves, we can just use
short-circuiting OR to collapse both cases into a single conditional.
I.e., rather than:
if (strstr("\n\n"))
...found blank, check if it's in signature...
else if (strstr("\r\n\r\n"))
...found blank, check if it's in signature...
else
...no blank line found...
we can collapse this to:
if (strstr("\n\n")) ||
strstr("\r\n\r\n")))
...found blank, check if it's in signature...
else
...no blank line found...
The tests show the problem and the fix. Though it wasn't broken, I
included contents:signature here to make sure it still behaves as
expected, but note the shell hackery needed to make it work. A
less-clever option would be to skip using test_atom and just "append_cr
>expected" ourselves.

When ref-filter is asked to show %(content:subject), etc, we end up in
find_subpos() to parse out the three major parts: the subject, the body,
and the signature (if any).
When searching for the blank line between the subject and body, if we
don't find anything, we try to treat the whole message as the subject,
with no body. But our idea of "the whole message" needs to take into
account the signature, too. Since 9f75ce3d8f (ref-filter: handle CRLF at
end-of-line more gracefully, 2020-10-29), the code instead goes all the
way to the end of the buffer, which produces confusing output.
Here's an example. If we have a tag message like this:
this is the subject
-----BEGIN SSH SIGNATURE-----
...some stuff...
-----END SSH SIGNATURE-----
then the current parser will put the start of the body at the end of the
whole buffer. This produces two buggy outcomes:
- since the subject length is computed as (body - subject), showing
%(contents:subject) will print both the subject and the signature,
rather than just the single line
- since the body length is computed as (sig - body), and the body now
starts _after_ the signature, we end up with a negative length!
Fortunately we never access out-of-bounds memory, because the
negative length is fed to xmemdupz(), which casts it to a size_t,
and xmalloc() bails trying to allocate an absurdly large value.
In theory it would be possible for somebody making a malicious tag
to wrap it around to a more reasonable value, but it would require a
tag on the order of 2^63 bytes. And even if they did, all they get
is an out of bounds string read. So the security implications are
probably not interesting.
We can fix both by correctly putting the start of the body at the same
index as the start of the signature (effectively making the body empty).
Note that this is a real issue with signatures generated with gpg.format
set to "ssh", which would look like the example above. In the new tests
here I use a hard-coded tag message, for a few reasons:
- regardless of what the ssh-signing code produces now or in the
future, we should be testing this particular case
- skipping the actual signature makes the tests simpler to write (and
allows them to run on more systems)
- t6300 has helpers for working with gpg signatures; for the purposes
of this bug, "BEGIN PGP" is just as good a demonstration, and this
simplifies the tests
Curiously, the same issue doesn't happen with real gpg signatures (and
there are even existing tests in t6300 with cover this). Those have a
blank line between the header and the content, like:
this is the subject
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE-----
...some stuff...
-----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
Because we search for the subject/body separator line with a strstr(),
we find the blank line in the signature, even though it's outside of
what we'd consider the body. But that puts us unto a separate code path,
which realizes that we're now in the signature and adjusts the line back
to "sigstart". So this patch is basically just making the "no line found
at all" case match that. And note that "sigstart" is always defined (if
there is no signature, it points to the end of the buffer as you'd
expect).

It is unclear as to _why_, but under certain circumstances the warning
about credentials being passed as part of the URL seems to be swallowed
by the `git remote-https` helper in the Windows jobs of Git's CI builds.
Since it is not actually important how many times Git prints the
warning/error message, as long as it prints it at least once, let's just
make the test a bit more lenient and test for the latter instead of the
former, which works around these CI issues.

Commit 6dcbdc0d66 (remote: create fetch.credentialsInUrl config,
2022-06-06) added tests for our handling of passwords in URLs. Since the
obvious URL to be affected is git-over-http, the tests use http. However
they don't set up a test server; they just try to access
https://localhost, assuming it will fail (because the nothing is
listening there).
This causes some possible problems:
- There might be a web server running on localhost, and we do not
actually want to connect to that.
- The DNS resolver, or the local firewall, might take a substantial
amount of time (or forever, whichever comes first) to fail to
connect, slowing down the tests cases unnecessarily.
- Since there's no server, our tests for "allow" and "warn" still
expect the clone/fetch/push operations to fail, even though in the
real world we'd expect these to succeed. We scrape stderr to see
what happened, but it's not as robust as a more realistic test.
Let's instead move these to t5551, which is all about testing http and
where we have a real server. That eliminates any issues with contacting
a strange URL, and lets the "allow" and "warn" tests confirm that the
operation actually succeeds.
It's not quite a verbatim move for a few reasons:
- we can drop the LIBCURL dependency; it's already part of
lib-httpd.sh
- we'll use HTTPD_URL_USER_PASS, etc, instead of our fake URL. To
avoid repetition, we'll add a few extra variables.
- the "https://username:@localhost" test uses a funny URL that
lib-httpd.sh doesn't provide. We'll similarly construct it in a
variable. Note that we're hard-coding the lib-httpd username here,
but t5551 already does that everywhere.
- for the "domain:port" test, the URL provided by lib-httpd is fine,
since our test server will always be on an exotic port. But we'll
confirm in the test that this is so.
- since our message-matching is done via grep, I simplified it to use
a regex, rather than trying to massage lib-httpd's variables.
Arguably this makes it more readable, too, while retaining the bits
we care about: the fatal/warning distinction, the "uses plaintext"
message, and the fact that the password was redacted.
- we'll use the /auth/ path for the repo, which shows that we are
indeed making use of the auth information when needed.
- we'll also use /smart/; most of these tests could be done via /dumb/
in t5550, but setting up pushes there requires extra effort and
dependencies. The smart protocol is what most everyone is using
these days anyway.
This patch is my own, but I stole the analysis and a few bits of the

`test_path_is_missing` was introduced back in 2caf20c52b ("test-lib:
user-friendly alternatives to test [-d|-f|-e]", 2010-08-10). It took the
path that was supposed to be missing, as well as an optional "diagnosis"
that would be echoed if the path was found to be alive.
Commit 45a2686441 ("test-lib-functions: remove bug-inducing
"diagnostics" helper param", 2021-02-12) dropped this diagnostic
functionality from several `test_path_is_foo` helpers, but note how it
tweaked the README entry on `test_path_is_missing` without actually
adjusting its implementation.
Commit e7884b353b ("test-lib-functions: assert correct parameter count",
2021-02-12) then followed up by asserting that we get just a single
argument.
This history leaves us in a state where we assert that we have exactly
one argument, then go on to anyway check for arguments, echoing them
all. It's clear that we can simplify this code. We should also note that
we run `ls -ld "$1"`, so printing the filename a second time doesn't
really buy us anything. Thus, we can drop the whole `if` block as
redundant.

In the former case we were leaving a trace.out file at the top-level

In the latter case we were testing that a given configuration would

between the "grep" invocations.
In practice this resulted in no logic error, as e.g. "--fetch 7" would
not print out a "9 tasks" line, but let's be paranoid and stop
implicitly assuming that that's the case.

initialization. Use oid_to_hex() instead of oid_to_hex_r(), because
that's simpler and using the static buffer of the former is just as safe
as the old static argv_checkout.
