The generation number of a commit presents certain shortcuts that we can make when performing graph walks.

Using generation numbers in paint_down_to_common() gets up to 4% boost in git merge-base due to reduced cost in queue_has_nonstale().

The in_commit_list() method does not check the parents of
the candidate for containment in the list. Fix the comment
that incorrectly states that it does.

The generation number of a commit is defined recursively as follows:

* If a commit A has no parents, then the generation number of A is one.
* If a commit A has parents, then the generation number of A is one
  more than the maximum generation number among the parents of A.

Add a uint32_t generation field to struct commit so we can pass this
information to revision walks. We use three special values to signal
the generation number is invalid:

GENERATION_NUMBER_INFINITY 0xFFFFFFFF
GENERATION_NUMBER_MAX 0x3FFFFFFF
GENERATION_NUMBER_ZERO 0

The first (_INFINITY) means the generation number has not been loaded or
computed. The second (_MAX) means the generation number is too large to
store in the commit-graph file. The third (_ZERO) means the generation
number was loaded from a commit graph file that was written by a version
of git that did not support generation numbers.

While preparing commits to be written into a commit-graph file, compute
the generation numbers using a depth-first strategy.

The only commits that are walked in this depth-first search are those
without a precomputed generation number. Thus, computation time will be
relative to the number of new commits to the commit-graph file.

If a computed generation number would exceed GENERATION_NUMBER_MAX, then
use GENERATION_NUMBER_MAX instead.

Define compare_commits_by_gen_then_commit_date(), which uses generation
numbers as a primary comparison and commit date to break ties (or as a
comparison when both commits do not have computed generation numbers).

Since the commit-graph file is closed under reachability, we know that
all commits in the file have generation at most GENERATION_NUMBER_MAX
which is less than GENERATION_NUMBER_INFINITY.

This change does not affect the number of commits that are walked during
the execution of paint_down_to_common(), only the order that those
commits are inspected. In the case that commit dates violate topological
order (i.e. a parent is "newer" than a child), the previous code could
walk a commit twice: if a commit is reached with the PARENT1 bit, but
later is re-visited with the PARENT2 bit, then that PARENT2 bit must be
propagated to its parents. Using generation numbers avoids this extra
effort, even if it is somewhat rare.

Most code paths load commits using lookup_commit() and then
parse_commit(). In some cases, including some branch lookups, the commit
is parsed using parse_object_buffer() which side-steps parse_commit() in
favor of parse_commit_buffer().

With generation numbers in the commit-graph, we need to ensure that any
commit that exists in the commit-graph file has its generation number
loaded.

Create new load_commit_graph_info() method to fill in the information
for a commit that exists only in the commit-graph file. Call it from
parse_commit_buffer() after loading the other commit information from
the given buffer. Only fill this information when specified by the
'check_graph' parameter.

A commit A can reach a commit B only if the generation number of A
is strictly larger than the generation number of B. This condition
allows significantly short-circuiting commit-graph walks.

Use generation number for '--contains' type queries.

On a copy of the Linux repository where HEAD is contained in v4.13
but no earlier tag, the command 'git tag --contains HEAD' had the
following peformance improvement:

Before: 0.81s
After:  0.04s
Rel %:  -95%

The containment algorithm for 'git branch --contains' is different
from that for 'git tag --contains' in that it uses is_descendant_of()
instead of contains_tag_algo(). The expensive portion of the branch
algorithm is computing merge bases.

When a commit-graph file exists with generation numbers computed,
we can avoid this merge-base calculation when the target commit has
a larger generation number than the initial commits.

Performance tests were run on a copy of the Linux repository where
HEAD is contained in v4.13 but no earlier tag. Also, all tags were
copied to branches and 'git branch --contains' was tested:

Before: 60.0s
After:   0.4s
Rel %: -99.3%

When running 'git branch --contains', the in_merge_bases_many()
method calls paint_down_to_common() to discover if a specific
commit is reachable from a set of branches. Commits with lower
generation number are not needed to correctly answer the
containment query of in_merge_bases_many().

Add a new parameter, min_generation, to paint_down_to_common() that
prevents walking commits with generation number strictly less than
min_generation. If 0 is given, then there is no functional change.

For in_merge_bases_many(), we can pass commit->generation as the
cutoff, and this saves time during 'git branch --contains' queries
that would otherwise walk "around" the commit we are inspecting.

For a copy of the Linux repository, where HEAD is checked out at
v4.13~100, we get the following performance improvement for
'git branch --contains' over the previous commit:

Before: 0.21s
After:  0.13s
Rel %: -38%

The static remove_redundant() method is used to filter a list
of commits by removing those that are reachable from another
commit in the list. This is used to remove all possible merge-
bases except a maximal, mutually independent set.

To determine these commits are independent, we use a number of
paint_down_to_common() walks and use the PARENT1, PARENT2 flags
to determine reachability. Since we only care about reachability
and not the full set of merge-bases between 'one' and 'twos', we
can use the 'min_generation' parameter to short-circuit the walk.

When no commit-graph exists, there is no change in behavior.

For a copy of the Linux repository, we measured the following
performance improvements:

git merge-base v3.3 v4.5

Before: 234 ms
 After: 208 ms
 Rel %: -11%

git merge-base v4.3 v4.5

Before: 102 ms
 After:  83 ms
 Rel %: -19%

The experiments above were chosen to demonstrate that we are
improving the filtering of the merge-base set. In the first
example, more time is spent walking the history to find the
set of merge bases before the remove_redundant() call. The
starting commits are closer together in the second example,
therefore more time is spent in remove_redundant(). The relative
change in performance differs as expected.

Now that we use generation numbers from the commit-graph, we must
ensure that all commits that exist in the commit-graph are loaded
from that file instead of from the object database. Since the
commit-graph file is only checked if core.commitGraph is true, we
must check the default config before we load any commits.

In the merge builtin, the config was checked after loading the HEAD
commit. This was due to the use of the global 'branch' when checking
merge-specific config settings.

Move the config load to be between the initialization of 'branch' and
the commit lookup.

Without this change, a fast-forward merge would hit a BUG("bad
generation skip") statement in commit.c during paint_down_to_common().
This is because the HEAD commit would be loaded with "infinite"
generation but then reached by commits with "finite" generation
numbers.

Add a test to t5318-commit-graph.sh that exercises this code path to
prevent a regression.

We now calculate generation numbers in the commit-graph file and use
them in paint_down_to_common().

Expand the section on generation numbers to discuss how the three
special generation numbers GENERATION_NUMBER_INFINITY, _ZERO, and
_MAX interact with other generation numbers.

Ever since the split index feature was introduced [1], refreshing a
split index is prone to a variant of the classic racy git problem.
There are a couple of unrelated tests in the test suite that
occasionally fail when run with 'GIT_TEST_SPLIT_INDEX=yes', but
't1700-split-index.sh', the only test script focusing solely on split
index, has never noticed this issue, because it only cares about how
the index is split under various circumstances and all the different
ways to turn the split index feature on and off.

Add a dedicated test script 't1701-racy-split-index.sh' to exercise
the split index feature in racy situations as well; kind of a
"t0010-racy-git.sh for split index" but with modern style (the tests
do everything in &&-chained list of commands in 'test_expect_...'
blocks, and use 'test_cmp' for more informative output on failure).

The tests cover the following sequences of index splitting, updating,
and racy file modifications, with the last two cases demonstrating the
racy split index problem:

  1. Split the index while adding a racily clean file:

       echo "cached content" >file
       git update-index --split-index --add file
       echo "dirty worktree" >file    # size stays the same

     This case already works properly.  Even though the cache entry's
     stat data matches with the modifid file in the worktree,
     subsequent git commands will notice that the (split) index and
     the file have the same mtime, and then will go on to check the
     file's content and notice its dirtiness.

  2. Add a racily clean file to an already split index:

       git update-index --split-index
       echo "cached content" >file
       git update-index --add file
       echo "dirty worktree" >file

     This case already works properly.  After the second 'git
     update-index' writes the newly added file's cache entry to the
     new split index, it basically works in the same way as case #1.

  3. Split the index when it (i.e. the not yet splitted index)
     contains a racily clean cache entry, i.e. an entry whose cached
     stat data matches with the corresponding file in the worktree and
     the cached mtime matches that of the index:

       echo "cached content" >file
       git update-index --add file
       echo "dirty worktree" >file
       # ... wait ...
       git update-index --split-index --add other-file

     This case already works properly.  The shared index is written by
     do_write_index(), i.e. the same function that is responsible for
     writing "regular" and split indexes as well.  This function
     cleverly notices the racily clean cache entry, and writes the
     entry to the new shared index with smudged stat data, i.e. file
     size set to 0.  When subsequent git commands read the index, they
     will notice that the smudged stat data doesn't match with the
     file in the worktree, and then go on to check the file's content
     and notice its dirtiness.

  4. Update the split index when it contains a racily clean cache
     entry:

       git update-index --split-index
       echo "cached content" >file
       git update-index --add file
       echo "dirty worktree" >file
       # ... wait ...
       git update-index --add other-file

     This case already works properly.  After the second 'git
     update-index' the newly added file's cache entry is only stored
     in the split index.  If a cache entry is present in the split
     index (even if it is a replacement of an outdated entry in the
     shared index), then it will always be included in the new split
     index on subsequent split index updates (until the file is
     removed or a new shared index is written), independently from
     whether the entry is racily clean or not.  When do_write_index()
     writes the new split index, it notices the racily clean cache
     entry, and smudges its stat date.  Subsequent git commands
     reading the index will notice the smudged stat data and then go
     on to check the file's content and notice its dirtiness.

  5. Update the split index when a racily clean cache entry is stored
     only in the shared index:

       echo "cached content" >file
       git update-index --split-index --add file
       echo "dirty worktree" >file
       # ... wait ...
       git update-index --add other-file

     This case fails due to the racy split index problem.  In the
     second 'git update-index' prepare_to_write_split_index() decides,
     among other things, which cache entries stored only in the shared
     index should be replaced in the new split index.  Alas, this
     function never looks out for racily clean cache entries, and
     since the file's stat data in the worktree hasn't changed since
     the shared index was written, the entry won't be replaced in the
     new split index.  Consequently, do_write_index() doesn't even get
     this racily clean cache entry, and can't smudge its stat data.
     Subsequent git commands will then see that the index has more
     recent mtime than the file and that the (not smudged) cached stat
     data still matches with the file in the worktree, and,
     ultimately, will erroneously consider the file clean.

  6. Update the split index after unpack_trees() copied a racily clean
     cache entry from the shared index:

       echo "cached content" >file
       git update-index --split-index --add file
       echo "dirty worktree" >file
       # ... wait ...
       git read-tree -m HEAD

     This case fails due to the racy split index problem.  This
     basically fails for the same reason as case #5 above, but there
     is one important difference, which warrants the dedicated test.
     While that second 'git update-index' in case #5 updates
     index_state in place, in this case 'git read-tree -m' calls
     unpack_trees(), which throws out the entire index, and constructs
     a new one from the (potentially updated) copies of the original's
     cache entries.  Consequently, when prepare_to_write_split_index()
     gets to work on this reconstructed index, it takes a different
     code path than in case #5 when deciding which cache entries in
     the shared index should be replaced.  The result is the same,
     though: the racily clean cache entry goes unnoticed, it isn't
     added to the split index with smudged stat data, and subsequent
     git commands will then erroneously consider the file clean.

Note that in the last two 'test_expect_failure' cases I omitted the
'#' (as in nr. of trial) from the tests' description on purpose for
now, as it breakes the TAP output [2]; it will be added at the end of
the series, when those two tests will be flipped to
'test_expect_success'.

[1] In the branch leading to the merge commit v2.1.0-rc0~45 (Merge
    branch 'nd/split-index', 2014-07-16).

[2] In the TAP output a '#' should separate the test's description
    from the TODO directive emitted by 'test_expect_failure'.  The
    additional '#' in "#$trial" interferes with this, the test harness
    won't recognize the TODO directive, and will report that those
    tests failed unexpectedly.

query_result can be be an empty strbuf (STRBUF_INIT) - in that case
trying to read 3 bytes triggers a buffer overflow read (as
query_result.buf = '\0').

Therefore we need to check query_result's length before trying to read 3
bytes.

This overflow was introduced in:

Most of these pointers can safely be freed when cmd_clone() completes,
therefore we make sure to free them. The one exception is that we
have to UNLEAK(repo) because it can point either to argv[0], or a
malloc'd string returned by absolute_pathdup().

We also have to free(path) in the middle of cmd_clone(): later during
cmd_clone(), path is unconditionally overwritten with a different path,
triggering a leak. Freeing the first path immediately after use (but
only in the case where it contains data) seems like the cleanest
solution, as opposed to freeing it unconditionally before path is reused
for another path. This leak appears to have been introduced in:
  f38aa83 (use local cloning if insteadOf makes a local URL, 2014-07-17)

These leaks were found when running t0001 with LSAN, see also an excerpt
of the LSAN output below (the full list is omitted because it's far too
long, and mostly consists of indirect leakage of members of the refs we
are freeing).

Make sure that we release the temporary strbuf during dwim_branch() for
all codepaths (and not just for the early return).

This leak appears to have been introduced in:
  f60a7b7 (worktree: teach "add" to check out existing branches, 2018-04-24)

Note that UNLEAK(branchname) is still needed: the returned result is
used in add(), and is stored in a pointer which is used to point at one
of:
  - a string literal ("HEAD")
  - member of argv (whatever the user specified in their invocation)
  - or our newly allocated string returned from dwim_branch()
Fixing the branchname leak isn't impossible, but does not seem
worthwhile given that add() is called directly from cmd_main(), and
cmd_main() returns immediately thereafter - UNLEAK is good enough.

This leak was found when running t0001 with LSAN, see also LSAN output
below:

The primary goal of this change is to stop leaking init_db_template_dir.
This leak can happen because:
 1. git_init_db_config() allocates new memory into init_db_template_dir
    without first freeing the existing value.
 2. init_db_template_dir might already contain data, either because:
  2.1 git_config() can be invoked twice with this callback in a single
      process - at least 2 allocations are likely.
  2.2 A single git_config() allocation can invoke the callback multiple
      times for a given key (see further explanation in the function
      docs) - each of those calls will trigger another leak.

The simplest fix for the leak would be to free(init_db_template_dir)
before overwriting it. Instead we choose to convert to fetching
init.templatedir via git_config_get_value() as that is more explicit,
more efficient, and avoids allocations (the returned result is owned by
the config cache, so we aren't responsible for freeing it).

If we remove init_db_template_dir, git_init_db_config() ends up being
responsible only for forwarding core.* config values to
platform_core_config(). However platform_core_config() already ignores
non-core.* config values, so we can safely remove git_init_db_config()
and invoke git_config() directly with platform_core_config() as the
callback.

The platform_core_config forwarding was originally added in:
  2878533 (mingw: respect core.hidedotfiles = false in git-init again, 2019-03-11
And I suspect the potential for a leak existed since the original
implementation of git_init_db_config in:
  90b4518 (Add `init.templatedir` configuration variable., 2010-02-17)

relative_url() populates sb. In the normal return path, its buffer is
detached using strbuf_detach(). However the early return path does
nothing with sb, which means that sb's memory is leaked - therefore
we add a release to avoid this leak.

The reset is also only necessary for the normal return path, hence we
move it down to after the early-return to avoid unnecessary work.

cmd_for_each_repo() copies argv into args (a strvec), which is later
passed into run_command_on_repo(), which in turn copies that strvec onto
the end of child.args. The initial copy is unnecessary (we never modify
args). We therefore choose to just pass argv directly into
run_command_on_repo(), which lets us avoid the copy and fixes the leak.

old_dir/new_dir are free()'d at the end of update_dir_rename_counts,
however if we return early we'll never free those strings. Therefore
we should move all new allocations after the possible early return,
avoiding a leak.

This seems like a fairly recent leak, that started happening since the
early-return was added in:

repo_diff_setup() calls through to diff.c's static prep_parse_options(),
which in  turn allocates a new array into diff_opts.parseopts.
diff_setup_done() is responsible for freeing that array, and has the
benefit of verifying diff_opts too - hence we add a call to
diff_setup_done() to avoid leaking parseopts.

- cmd_rebase populates rebase_options.strategy with newly allocated
  strings, hence we need to free those strings at the end of cmd_rebase
  to avoid a leak.
- In some cases: get_replay_opts() is called, which prepares replay_opts
  using data from rebase_options. We used to simply copy the pointer
  from rebase_options.strategy,  however that would now result in a
  double-free because sequencer_remove_state() is eventually used to
  free replay_opts.strategy. To avoid this we xstrdup() strategy when
  adding it to replay_opts.

The original leak happens because we always populate
rebase_options.strategy, but we don't always enter the path that calls
get_replay_opts() and later sequencer_remove_state() - in  other words
we'd always allocate a new string into rebase_options.strategy but
only sometimes did we free it. We now make sure that rebase_options
and replay_opts both own their own copies of strategy, and each copy
is free'd independently.

This was first seen when running t0021 with LSAN, but t2012 helped catch
the fact that we can't just free(options.strategy) at the end of
cmd_rebase (as that can cause a double-free). LSAN output from t0021:

setup_unpack_trees_porcelain() populates various fields on
unpack_tree_opts, we need to call clear_unpack_trees_porcelain() to
avoid leaking them. Specifically, we used to leak
unpack_tree_opts.msgs_to_free.

We have to do this in leave_reset_head because there are multiple
scenarios where unpack_tree_opts has already been configured, followed
by a 'goto leave_reset_head'. But we can also 'goto leave_reset_head'
prior to having initialised unpack_tree_opts via memset(..., 0, ...).
Therefore we also move unpack_tree_opts initialisation to the start of
reset_head(), and convert it to use brace initialisation - which
guarantees that we can never clear an uninitialised unpack_tree_opts.
clear_unpack_tree_opts() is always safe to call as long as
unpack_tree_opts is at least zero-initialised, i.e. it does not depend
on a previous call to setup_unpack_trees_porcelain().

In a sparse index it is possible for the tree that is being verified
to be freed while it is being verified. This happens when the index is
sparse but the cache tree is not and index_name_pos() looks up a path
from the cache tree that is a descendant of a sparse index entry. That
triggers a call to ensure_full_index() which frees the cache tree that
is being verified.  Carrying on trying to verify the tree after this
results in a use-after-free bug. Instead restart the verification if a
sparse index is converted to a full index. This bug is triggered by a
call to reset_head() in "git rebase --apply". Thanks to René Scharfe
and Derick Stolee for their help analyzing the problem.

When I was playing around with trace2 data and creating flamegraphs, I tried a `git fetch` call to see how the `git-remote-https` command would show up. What I didn't expect was an `ensure_full_index()` region!

It turns out that `git fetch` and `git pull` need to check the index for a `.gitmodules` file to see if it should recurse into any submodules. Here is the stack trace from a debugger:

When trying to write a MIDX, we already prevent the case where there
weren't any packs present, and thus we would have written an empty MIDX.

But there is another "empty" case, which is more interesting, and we
don't yet handle. If we try to write a MIDX which has at least one pack,
but those packs together don't contain any objects, we will encounter a
BUG() when trying to use the bitmap corresponding to that MIDX, like so:

    $ git rev-parse HEAD | git pack-objects --revs --use-bitmap-index --stdout >/dev/null
    BUG: pack-revindex.c:394: pack_pos_to_midx: out-of-bounds object at 0

(note that in the above reproduction, both `--use-bitmap-index` and
`--stdout` are important, since without the former we won't even both to
load the .bitmap, and without the latter we wont attempt pack reuse).

The problem occurs when we try to discover the identity of the
preferred pack to determine which range if any of existing packs we can
reuse verbatim. This path is: `reuse_packfile_objects()` ->
`reuse_partial_packfile_from_bitmap()` -> `midx_preferred_pack()`.

    #4  0x000055555575401f in pack_pos_to_midx (m=0x555555997160, pos=0) at pack-revindex.c:394
    #5  0x00005555557502c8 in midx_preferred_pack (bitmap_git=0x55555599c280) at pack-bitmap.c:1431
    #6  0x000055555575036c in reuse_partial_packfile_from_bitmap (bitmap_git=0x55555599c280, packfile_out=0x5555559666b0 <reuse_packfile>,
        entries=0x5555559666b8 <reuse_packfile_objects>, reuse_out=0x5555559666c0 <reuse_packfile_bitmap>) at pack-bitmap.c:1452
    #7  0x00005555556041f6 in get_object_list_from_bitmap (revs=0x7fffffffcbf0) at builtin/pack-objects.c:3658
    #8  0x000055555560465c in get_object_list (ac=2, av=0x555555997050) at builtin/pack-objects.c:3765
    #9  0x0000555555605e4e in cmd_pack_objects (argc=0, argv=0x7fffffffe920, prefix=0x0) at builtin/pack-objects.c:4154

Since neither the .bitmap or MIDX stores the identity of the
preferred pack, we infer it by trying to load the first object in
pseudo-pack order, and then asking the MIDX which pack was chosen to
represent that object.

But this fails our bounds check, since there are zero objects in the
MIDX to begin with, which results in the BUG().

We could catch this more carefully in `midx_preferred_pack()`, but
signaling the absence of a preferred pack out to all of its callers is
somewhat awkward.

Instead, let's avoid writing a MIDX .bitmap without any objects
altogether. We catch this case in `write_midx_internal()`, and emit a
warning if the caller indicated they wanted to write a bitmap before
clearing out the relevant flags. If we somehow got to
write_midx_bitmap(), then we will call BUG(), but this should now be an
unreachable path.

The fix is short (~30 lines), but the description is not.  Sorry.

There is a set of problems caused by files in what I'll refer to as the
"present-despite-SKIP_WORKTREE" state.  This commit aims to not just fix
these problems, but remove the entire class as a possibility -- for
those using sparse checkouts.  But first, we need to understand the
problems this class presents.  A quick outline:

   * Problems
     * User facing issues
     * Problem space complexity
     * Maintenance and code correctness challenges
   * SKIP_WORKTREE expectations in Git
   * Suggested solution
   * Pros/Cons of suggested solution
   * Notes on testcase modifications

=== User facing issues ===

There are various ways for users to get files to be present in the
working copy despite having the SKIP_WORKTREE bit set for that file in
the index.  This may come from:
  * various git commands not really supporting the SKIP_WORKTREE bit[1,2]
  * users grabbing files from elsewhere and writing them to the worktree
    (perhaps even cached in their editor)
  * users attempting to "abort" a sparse-checkout operation with a
    not-so-early Ctrl+C (updating $GIT_DIR/info/sparse-checkout and the
    working tree is not atomic)[3].

Once users have present-despite-SKIP_WORKTREE files, any modifications
users make to these files will be ignored, possibly to users' confusion.

Further:
  * these files will degrade performance for the sparse-index case due
    to requiring the index to be expanded (see commit 55dfcf9
    ("sparse-checkout: clear tracked sparse dirs", 2021-09-08) for why
    we try to delete entire directories outside the sparse cone).
  * these files will not be updated by by standard commands
    (switch/checkout/pull/merge/rebase will leave them alone unless
    conflicts happen -- and even then, the conflicted file may be
    written somewhere else to avoid overwriting the SKIP_WORKTREE file
    that is present and in the way)
  * there is nothing in Git that users can use to discover such
    files (status, diff, grep, etc. all ignore it)
  * there is no reasonable mechanism to "recover" from such a condition
    (neither `git sparse-checkout reapply` nor `git reset --hard` will
    correct it).

So, not only are users modifications ignored, but the files get
progressively more stale over time.  At some point in the future, they
may change their sparseness specification or disable sparse-checkouts.
At that time, all present-despite-SKIP_WORKTREE files will show up as
having lots of modifications because they represent a version from a
different branch or commit.  These might include user-made local changes
from days before, but the only way to tell is to have users look through
them all closely.

If these users come to others for help, there will be no logs that
explain the issue; it's just a mysterious list of changes.  Users might
adamantly claim (correctly, as it turns out) that they didn't modify
these files, while others presume they did.

=== Problem space complexity ===

SKIP_WORKTREE has been part of Git for over a decade.  Duy did lots of
work on it initially, and several others have since come along and put
lots of work into it.  Stolee spent most of 2021 on the sparse-index,
with lots of bugfixes along the way including to non-sparse-index cases
as we are still trying to get sparse checkouts to behave reasonably.
Basically every codepath throughout the treat needs to be aware of an
additional type of file: tracked-but-not-present.  The extra type
results in lots of extra testcases and lots of extra code everywhere.

But, the sad thing is that we actually have more than one extra type.
We have tracked, tracked-but-not-present (SKIP_WORKTREE), and
tracked-but-promised-to-not-be-present-but-is-present-anyway
(present-despite-SKIP_WORKTREE).  Two types is a monumental amount of
effort to support, and adding a third feels a bit like insanity[4].

[4] Some examples of which can be seen at
    https://lore.kernel.org/git/CABPp-BGJ_Nvi5TmgriD9Bh6eNXE2EDq2f8e8QKXAeYG3BxZafA@mail.gmail.com/

=== Maintenance and code correctness challenges ===

Matheus' patches to grep stalled for nearly a year, in part because of
complications of how to handle sparse-checkouts appropriately in all
cases[5][6] (with trying to sanely figure out how to sanely handle
present-despite-SKIP_WORKTREE files being one of the complications).
His rm/add follow-ups also took months because of those kinds of
issues[7].  The corner cases with things like submodules and
SKIP_WORKTREE with the addition of present-despite-SKIP_WORKTREE start
becoming really complex[8].

We've had to add ugly logic to merge-ort to attempt to handle
present-despite-SKIP_WORKTREE files[9], and basically just been forced
to give up in merge-recursive knowing full well that we'll sometimes
silently discard user modifications.  Despite stash essentially being a
merge, it needed extra code (beyond what was in merge-ort and
merge-recursive) to manually tweak SKIP_WORKTREE bits in order to avoid
a few different bugs that'd result in an early abort with a partial
stash application[10].

[5] See https://lore.kernel.org/git/5f3f7ac77039d41d1692ceae4b0c5df3bb45b74a.1612901326.git.matheus.bernardino@usp.br/#t
    and the dates on the thread; also Matheus and I had several
    conversations off-list trying to resolve the issues over that time

    and quotes like "The core functionality of sparse-checkout has always
    been only partially implemented", a statement I still believe is true
    today.

    handling with conflicted entries", 2021-03-20)
[10] See commit ba359fd ("stash: fix stash application in
     sparse-checkouts", 2020-12-01)

=== SKIP_WORKTREE expectations in Git ===

A couple quotes:

 * From [11] (before the "sparse-checkout" command existed):

   If it needs too many special cases, hacks, and conditionals, then it
   is not worth the complexity---if it is easier to write a correct code
   by allowing Git to populate working tree files, it is perfectly fine
   to do so.

   In a sense, the sparse checkout "feature" itself is a hack by itself,
   and that is why I think this part should be "best effort" as well.

 * From the git-sparse-checkout manual (still present today):

   THIS COMMAND IS EXPERIMENTAL. ITS BEHAVIOR, AND THE BEHAVIOR OF OTHER
   COMMANDS IN THE PRESENCE OF SPARSE-CHECKOUTS, WILL LIKELY CHANGE IN
   THE FUTURE.

[11] https://lore.kernel.org/git/xmqqbmb1a7ga.fsf@gitster-ct.c.googlers.com/

=== Suggested solution ===

SKIP_WORKTREE was written to allow sparse-checkouts, in particular, as
the name of the option implies, to allow the file to NOT be in the
worktree but consider it to be unchanged rather than deleted.

The suggests a simple solution: present-despite-SKIP_WORKTREE files
should not exist, for those using sparse-checkouts.

Enforce this at index loading time by checking if core.sparseCheckout is
true; if so, check files in the index with the SKIP_WORKTREE bit set to
verify that they are absent from the working tree.  If they are present,
unset the bit (in memory, though any commands that write to the index
will record the update).

Users can, of course, can get the SKIP_WORKTREE bit back such as by
running `git sparse-checkout reapply` (if they have ensured the file is
unmodified and doesn't match the specified sparsity patterns).

=== Pros/Cons of suggested solution ===

Pros:

  * Solves the user visible problems reported above, which I've been
    complaining about for nearly a year but couldn't find a solution to.
  * Helps prevent slow performance degradation with a sparse-index.
  * Much easier behavior in sparse-checkouts for users to reason about
  * Very simple, ~30 lines of code.
  * Significantly simplifies some ugly testcases, and obviates the need
    to test an entire class of potential issues.
  * Reduces code complexity, reasoning, and maintenance.  Avoids
    disagreements about weird corner cases[12].
  * It has been reported that some users might be (ab)using
    SKIP_WORKTREE as a let-me-modify-but-keep-the-file-in-the-worktree
    mechanism[13, and a few other similar references].  These users know
    of multiple caveats and shortcomings in doing so; perhaps not
    surprising given the "SKIP_WORKTREE expecations" section above.
    However, these users use `git update-index --skip-worktree`, and not
    `git sparse-checkout` or core.sparseCheckout=true.  As such, these
    users would be unaffected by this change and can continue abusing
    the system as before.

[12] https://lore.kernel.org/git/CABPp-BH9tju7WVm=QZDOvaMDdZbpNXrVWQdN-jmfN8wC6YVhmw@mail.gmail.com/
[13] https://stackoverflow.com/questions/13630849/git-difference-between-assume-unchanged-and-skip-worktree

Cons:

  * When core.sparseCheckout is enabled, this adds a performance cost to
    reading the index.  I'll defer discussion of this cost to a subsequent
    patch, since I have some optimizations to add.

=== Notes on testcase modifications ===

The good:
  * t1011: Compare to two cases above it ('read-tree will not throw away
    dirty changes, non-sparse'); since the file is present, it should
    match the non-sparse case now
  * t1092: sparse-index & sparse-checkout now match full-worktree
    behavior in more cases!  Yaay for consistency!
  * t6428, t7012: look at how much simpler the tests become!  Merge and
    stash can just fail early telling the user there's a file in the
    way, instead of not noticing until it's about to write a file and
    then have to implement sudden crash avoidance.  Hurray for sanity!
  * t7817: sparse behavior better matches full tree behavior.  Hurray
    for sanity!

The confusing:
  * t3705: These changes were ONLY needed on Windows, but they don't
    hurt other platforms.  Let's discuss each individually:

    * core.sparseCheckout should be false by default.  Nothing in this
      testcase toggles that until many, many tests later.  However,
      early tests (#5 in particular) were testing `update-index
      --skip-worktree` behavior in a non-sparse-checkout, but the
      Windows tests in CI were behaving as if core.sparseCheckout=true
      had been specified somewhere.  I do not have access to a Windows
      machine.  But I just manually did what should have been a no-op
      and turned the config off.  And it fixed the test.
    * I have no idea why the leftover .gitattributes file from this
      test was causing failures for test #18 on Windows, but only with
      these changes of mine.  Test #18 was checking for empty stderr,
      and specifically wanted to know that some error completely
      unrelated to file endings did not appear.  The leftover
      .gitattributes file thus caused some spurious stderr unrelated to
      the thing being checked.  Since other tests did not intend to
      test normalization, just proactively remove the .gitattributes
      file.  I'm certain this is cleaner and better, I'm just unsure
      why/how this didn't trigger problems before.

Whereas LSAN would emit this instead:

Now we'll instead git this sensible stack trace under
LSAN. I.e. almost the same one (but starting with "malloc", as is
usual for LSAN) as under ASAN:

    Direct leak of 3 byte(s) in 1 object(s) allocated from:

As the option name suggests this does make things slower, e.g. for
t0001-init.sh we're around 10% slower:

    $ hyperfine -L v 0,1 'LSAN_OPTIONS=fast_unwind_on_malloc={v} make T=t0001-init.sh' -r 3

      Range (min … max):    2.122 s …  2.152 s    3 runs

    Benchmark 2: LSAN_OPTIONS=fast_unwind_on_malloc=1 make T=t0001-init.sh

      Range (min … max):    1.941 s …  2.044 s    3 runs

    Summary
      'LSAN_OPTIONS=fast_unwind_on_malloc=1 make T=t0001-init.sh' ran
        1.08 ± 0.03 times faster than 'LSAN_OPTIONS=fast_unwind_on_malloc=0 make T=t0001-init.sh'

I think that's more than worth it to get the more meaningful stack
traces, we can always provide LSAN_OPTIONS=fast_unwind_on_malloc=0 for
one-off "fast" runs.

In the preceding [1] (pack-objects: move revs out of

Narrowly fixing that commit would have been easy, just add call
repo_init_revisions() right before get_object_list(), which is
effectively what was done before that commit.

But an unstated constraint when setting it up early is that it was
needed for the subsequent [2] (pack-objects: parse --filter directly
into revs.filter, 2022-03-22), i.e. we might have a --filter
command-line option, and need to either have the "struct rev_info"
setup when we encounter that option, or later.

Let's just change the control flow so that we'll instead set up the
"struct rev_info" only when we need it. Doing so leads to a bit more
verbosity, but it's a lot clearer what we're doing and why.

An earlier version of this commit[3] went behind
opt_parse_list_objects_filter()'s back by faking up a "struct option"
before calling it. Let's avoid that and instead create a blessed API
for this pattern.

We could furthermore combine the two get_object_list() invocations
here by having repo_init_revisions() invoked on &pfd.revs, but I think
clearly separating the two makes the flow clearer. Likewise
redundantly but explicitly (i.e. redundant v.s. a "{ 0 }") "0" to
"have_revs" early in cmd_pack_objects().

While we're at it add parentheses around the arguments to the OPT_*
macros in in list-objects-filter-options.h, as we need to change those
lines anyway. It doesn't matter in this case, but is good general
practice.

Since commit fcc07e9 (is_promisor_object(): free tree buffer after
parsing, 2021-04-13), we'll always free the buffers attached to a
"struct tree" after searching them for promisor links. But there's an
important case where we don't want to do so: if somebody else is already
using the tree!

This can happen during a "rev-list --missing=allow-promisor" traversal
in a partial clone that is missing one or more trees or blobs. The
backtrace for the free looks like this:

      [...]

We're in the middle of walking through the entries of a tree object via
process_tree_contents(). We see a blob (or it could even be another tree
entry) that we don't have, so we call is_promisor_object() to check it.
That function loops over all of the objects in the promisor packfile,
including the tree we're currently walking. When we're done with it
there, we free the tree buffer. But as we return to the walk in
process_tree_contents(), it's still holding on to a pointer to that
buffer, via its tree_desc iterator, and it accesses the freed memory.

Even a trivial use of "--missing=allow-promisor" triggers this problem,
as the included test demonstrates (it's just a vanilla --blob:none
clone).

We can detect this case by only freeing the tree buffer if it was
allocated on our behalf. This is a little tricky since that happens
inside parse_object(), and it doesn't tell us whether the object was
already parsed, or whether it allocated the buffer itself. But by
checking for an already-parsed tree beforehand, we can distinguish the
two cases.

That feels a little hacky, and does incur an extra lookup in the
object-hash table. But that cost is fairly minimal compared to actually
loading objects (and since we're iterating the whole pack here, we're
likely to be loading most objects, rather than reusing cached results).

It may also be a good direction for this function in general, as there
are other possible optimizations that rely on doing some analysis before
parsing:

  - we could detect blobs and avoid reading their contents; they can't
    link to other objects, but parse_object() doesn't know that we don't
    care about checking their hashes.

  - we could avoid allocating object structs entirely for most objects
    (since we really only need them in the oidset), which would save
    some memory.

  - promisor commits could use the commit-graph rather than loading the
    object from disk

This commit doesn't do any of those optimizations, but I think it argues
that this direction is reasonable, rather than relying on parse_object()
and trying to teach it to give us more information about whether it
parsed.

The included test fails reliably under SANITIZE=address just when
running "rev-list --missing=allow-promisor". Checking the output isn't
strictly necessary to detect the bug, but it seems like a reasonable
addition given the general lack of coverage for "allow-promisor" in the
test suite.

In the tmp-objdir api, tmp_objdir_create will create a temporary
directory but also register signal handlers responsible for removing
the directory's contents and the directory itself. However, the
function responsible for recursively removing the contents and
directory, remove_dir_recurse() calls opendir(3) and closedir(3).
This can be problematic because these functions allocate and free
memory, which are not async-signal-safe functions. This can lead to
deadlocks.

One place we call tmp_objdir_create() is in git-receive-pack, where
we create a temporary quarantine directory "incoming". Incoming
objects will be written to this directory before they get moved to
the object directory.

We have observed this code leading to a deadlock:

Since we can't do the cleanup in a portable and signal-safe way, skip
the cleanup when we're handling a signal.

This means that when signal handling, the temporary directory may not
get cleaned up properly. This is mitigated by b3cecf4 (tmp-objdir: new
API for creating temporary writable databases, 2021-12-06) which changed
the default name and allows gc to clean up these temporary directories.

In the event of a normal exit, we should still be cleaning up via the
atexit() handler.

There is an out-of-bounds read possible when parsing gitattributes that
have an attribute that is 2^31+1 bytes long. This is caused due to an
integer overflow when we assign the result of strlen(3P) to an `int`,
where we use the wrapped-around value in a subsequent call to
memcpy(3P). The following code reproduces the issue:

    blob=$(perl -e 'print "a" x 2147483649 . " attr"' | git hash-object -w --stdin)
    git update-index --add --cacheinfo 100644,$blob,.gitattributes

It is possible to trigger an integer overflow when parsing attribute

Fix this bug by using `size_t` instead to count the number of attributes
so that this value cannot reasonably overflow without running out of
memory before already.

When using a padding specifier in the pretty format passed to git-log(1)
we need to calculate the string length in several places. These string
lengths are stored in `int`s though, which means that these can easily
overflow when the input lengths exceeds 2GB. This can ultimately lead to
an out-of-bounds write when these are used in a call to memcpy(3P):

The pretty format can also be used in `git archive` operations via the
`export-subst` attribute. So this is what in our opinion makes this a
critical issue in the context of Git forges which allow to download an
archive of user supplied Git repositories.

Fix this vulnerability by using `size_t` instead of `int` to track the
string lengths. Add tests which detect this vulnerability when Git is
compiled with the address sanitizer.

With the `%>>(<N>)` pretty formatter, you can ask git-log(1) et al to
steal spaces. To do so we need to look ahead of the next token to see
whether there are spaces there. This loop takes into account ANSI
sequences that end with an `m`, and if it finds any it will skip them
until it finds the first space. While doing so it does not take into
account the buffer's limits though and easily does an out-of-bounds
read.

Add a test that hits this behaviour. While we don't have an easy way to
verify this, the test causes the following failure when run with
`SANITIZE=address`:

Luckily enough, this would only cause us to copy the out-of-bounds data
into the formatted commit in case we really had an ANSI sequence
preceding our buffer. So this bug likely has no security consequences.

Fix it regardless by not traversing past the buffer's start.

An out-of-bounds read can be triggered when parsing an incomplete
padding format string passed via `--pretty=format` or in Git archives
when files are marked with the `export-subst` gitattribute.

This bug exists since we have introduced support for truncating output
via the `trunc` keyword a7f01c6 (pretty: support truncating in %>, %<
and %><, 2013-04-19). Before this commit, we used to find the end of the
formatting string by using strchr(3P). This function returns a `NULL`
pointer in case the character in question wasn't found. The subsequent
check whether any character was found thus simply checked the returned
pointer. After the commit we switched to strcspn(3P) though, which only
returns the offset to the first found character or to the trailing NUL
byte. As the end pointer is now computed by adding the offset to the
start pointer it won't be `NULL` anymore, and as a consequence the check
doesn't do anything anymore.

The out-of-bounds data that is being read can in fact end up in the
formatted string. As a consequence, it is possible to leak memory
contents either by calling git-log(1) or via git-archive(1) when any of
the archived files is marked with the `export-subst` gitattribute.
