2016-08-25Merge branch 'bw/mingw-avoid-inheriting-fd-to-lockfile'Junio C Hamano
The tempfile (hence its user lockfile) API lets the caller to open a file descriptor to a temporary file, write into it and then finalize it by first closing the filehandle and then either removing or renaming the temporary file. When the process spawns a subprocess after obtaining the file descriptor, and if the subprocess has not exited when the attempt to remove or rename is made, the last step fails on Windows, because the subprocess has the file descriptor still open. Open tempfile with O_CLOEXEC flag to avoid this (on Windows, this is mapped to O_NOINHERIT). * bw/mingw-avoid-inheriting-fd-to-lockfile: mingw: ensure temporary file handles are not inherited by child processes t6026-merge-attr: child processes must not inherit index.lock handles

2016-08-23mingw: ensure temporary file handles are not inherited by child processesBen Wijen
When the index is locked and child processes inherit the handle to said lock and the parent process wants to remove the lock before the child process exits, on Windows there is a problem: it won't work because files cannot be deleted if a process holds a handle on them. The symptom: Rename from 'xxx/.git/index.lock' to 'xxx/.git/index' failed. Should I try again? (y/n) Spawning child processes with bInheritHandles==FALSE would not work because no file handles would be inherited, not even the hStdXxx handles in STARTUPINFO (stdin/stdout/stderr). Opening every file with O_NOINHERIT does not work, either, as e.g. git-upload-pack expects inherited file handles. This leaves us with the only way out: creating temp files with the O_NOINHERIT flag. This flag is Windows-specific, however. For our purposes, it is equivalent to O_CLOEXEC (which does not exist on Windows), so let's just open temporary files with the O_CLOEXEC flag and map that flag to O_NOINHERIT on Windows. As Eric Wong pointed out, we need to be careful to handle the case where the Linux headers used to compile Git support O_CLOEXEC but the Linux kernel used to run Git does not: it returns an EINVAL. This fixes the test that we just introduced to demonstrate the problem.

Since 4804aab (help (Windows): Display HTML in default browser using Windows' shell API, 2008-07-13), Git for Windows used to call `ShellExecute()` to launch the default Windows handler for `.html` files. The idea was to avoid going through a shell script, for performance reasons. However, this change ignores the `help.browser` config setting. Together with browsing help not being a performance-critical operation, let's just revert that patch.

2016-08-18t6026-merge-attr: child processes must not inherit index.lock handlesBen Wijen
On Windows, a file cannot be removed unless all file handles to it have been released. Hence it is particularly important to close handles when spawning children (which would probably not even know that they hold on to those handles). The example chosen for this test is a custom merge driver that indeed has no idea that it blocks the deletion of index.lock. The full use case is a daemon that lives on after the merge, with subsequent invocations handing off to the daemon, thereby avoiding hefty start-up costs. We simulate this behavior by simply sleeping one second. Note that the test only fails on Windows, due to the file locking issue. Since we have no way to say "expect failure with MINGW, success otherwise", we simply skip this test on Windows for now.

Let's merge it up to more modern codebase that has Peff's gpg-interface clean-up topic that appeared after Git 2.9 was tagged. * lt/gpg-show-long-key-in-signature-verification-maint: gpg-interface: prefer "long" key format output when verifying pgp signatures
2016-08-16gpg-interface: prefer "long" key format output when verifying pgp signaturesLinus Torvalds
Yes, gpg2 already uses the long format by default, but most distributions seem to still have "gpg" be the older 1.x version due to compatibility reasons. And older versions of gpg only show the 32-bit short ID, which is quite insecure. This doesn't actually matter for the _verification_ itself: if the verification passes, the pgp signature is good. But if you don't actually have the key yet, and want to fetch it, or you want to check exactly which key was used for verification and want to check it, we should specify the key with more precision. In fact, we should preferentially specify the whole key fingerprint, but gpg doesn't actually support that. Which is really quite sad. Showing the "long" format improves things to at least show 64 bits of the fingerprint. That's a lot better, even if it's not perfect. This change the log format for "git log --show-signature" from commit 2376d31787760af598db23bb3982a57419854e5c merged tag 'v2.9.3' gpg: Signature made Fri 12 Aug 2016 09:17:59 AM PDT using RSA key ID 96AFE6CB gpg: Good signature from "Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>" gpg: aka "Junio C Hamano <jch@google.com>" gpg: aka "Junio C Hamano <junio@pobox.com>" Merge: 2807cd7b25af e0c1ceafc5be Author: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com> Date: Fri Aug 12 10:02:18 2016 -0700 to commit 2376d31787760af598db23bb3982a57419854e5c merged tag 'v2.9.3' gpg: Signature made Fri 12 Aug 2016 09:17:59 AM PDT gpg: using RSA key B0B5E88696AFE6CB gpg: Good signature from "Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>" gpg: aka "Junio C Hamano <jch@google.com>" gpg: aka "Junio C Hamano <junio@pobox.com>" Merge: 2807cd7b25af e0c1ceafc5be Author: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com> Date: Fri Aug 12 10:02:18 2016 -0700 (note the longer key ID, but also the reflowing of the text) and also changes the format in the merge messages when merging a signed tag. If you already use gpg2 (either because it's installed by default, or because you have set your gpg_program configuration to point to gpg2), that already used the long format, you'll also see a change: it will now have the same formatting as gpg 1.x, and the verification string looks something like gpg: Signature made Sun 24 Jul 2016 12:24:02 PM PDT gpg: using RSA key 79BE3E4300411886 gpg: Good signature from "Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>" [ultimate] where it used to be on one line: gpg: Signature made Sun 24 Jul 2016 12:24:02 PM PDT using RSA key ID 79BE3E4300411886 gpg: Good signature from "Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>" [ultimate] so there is certainly a chance this could break some automated scripting. But the 32-bit key ID's really are broken. Also note that because of the differences between gpg-1.x and gpg-2.x, hopefully any scripted key ID parsing code (if such code exists) is already flexible enough to not care. This was triggered by the fact that the "evil32" project keys ended up leaking to the public key servers, so now there are 32-bit aliases for just about every open source developer that you can easily get by mistake if you use the 32-bit short ID format.

2016-08-16rev-parse: respect core.hooksPath in --git-pathJohannes Schindelin
The idea of the --git-path option is not only to avoid having to prefix paths with the output of --git-dir all the time, but also to respect overrides for specific common paths inside the .git directory (e.g. `git rev-parse --git-path objects` will report the value of the environment variable GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY, if set). When introducing the core.hooksPath setting, we forgot to adjust git_path() accordingly. This patch fixes that. While at it, revert the special-casing of core.hooksPath in run-command.c, as it is now no longer needed.

2016-08-16t/Makefile: ensure that paths are valid on platforms we careJohannes Schindelin
Some pathnames that are okay on ext4 and on HFS+ cannot be checked out on Windows. Tests that want to see operations on such paths on filesystems that support them must do so behind appropriate test prerequisites, and must not include them in the source tree (instead they should create them when they run). Otherwise, the source tree cannot even be checked out. Make sure that double-quotes, asterisk, colon, greater/less-than, question-mark, backslash, tab, vertical-bar, as well as any non-ASCII characters never appear in the pathnames with a new test-lint-* target as part of a `make test`. To that end, we call `git ls-files` (ensuring that the paths are quoted properly), relying on the fact that paths containing non-ASCII characters are quoted within double-quotes. In case that the source code does not actually live in a Git repository (e.g. when extracted from a .zip file), or that the `git` executable cannot be executed, we simply ignore the error for now; In that case, our trusty Continuous Integration will be the last line of defense and catch any problematic file name. Noticed when a topic wanted to add a pathname with '>' in it. A check like this will prevent a similar problems from happening in the future.

2016-08-15difftool: always honor fatal error exit codesJohn Keeping
At the moment difftool's "trust exit code" logic always suppresses the exit status of the diff utility we invoke. This is useful because we don't want to exit just because diff returned "1" because the files differ, but it's confusing if the shell returns an error because the selected diff utility is not found. POSIX specifies 127 as the exit status for "command not found", 126 for "command found but is not executable" and values greater than 128 if the command terminated because it received a signal [1] and at least bash and dash follow this specification, while diff utilities generally use "1" for the exit status we want to ignore. Handle any value of 126 or greater as a special value indicating that some form of fatal error occurred.

2016-08-14convert: Correct NNO tests and missing `LF will be replaced by CRLF`Torsten Bögershausen
When a non-reversible CRLF conversion is done in "git add", a warning is printed on stderr (or Git dies, depending on checksafe) The function commit_chk_wrnNNO() in t0027 was written to test this, but did the wrong thing: Instead of looking at the warning from "git add", it looked at the warning from "git commit". This is racy because "git commit" may not have to do CRLF conversion at all if it can use the sha1 value from the index (which depends on whether "add" and "commit" run in a single second). Correct t0027 and replace the commit for each and every file with a commit of all files in one go. The function commit_chk_wrnNNO() should be renamed in a separate commit. Now that t0027 does the right thing, it detects a bug in covert.c: This sequence should generate the warning `LF will be replaced by CRLF`, but does not: $ git init $ git config core.autocrlf false $ printf "Line\r\n" >file $ git add file $ git commit -m "commit with CRLF" $ git config core.autocrlf true $ printf "Line\n" >file $ git add file "git add" calls crlf_to_git() in convert.c, which calls check_safe_crlf(). When has_cr_in_index(path) is true, crlf_to_git() returns too early and check_safe_crlf() is not called at all. Factor out the code which determines if "git checkout" converts LF->CRLF into will_convert_lf_to_crlf(). Update the logic around check_safe_crlf() and "simulate" the possible LF->CRLF conversion at "git checkout" with help of will_convert_lf_to_crlf().
