2017-12-14transport: make transport vtable more privateJonathan Tan
Move the definition of the transport-specific functions provided by transports, whether declared in transport.c or transport-helper.c, into an internal header. This means that transport-using code (as opposed to transport-declaring code) can no longer access these functions (without importing the internal header themselves), making it clear that they should use the transport_*() functions instead, and also allowing the interface between the transport mechanism and an individual transport to independently evolve. This is superficially a reversal of commit 824d5776c3f2 ("Refactor struct transport_ops inlined into struct transport", 2007-09-19). However, the scope of the involved variables was neither affected nor discussed in that commit, and I think that the advantages in making those functions more private outweigh the advantages described in that commit's commit message. A minor additional point is that the code has gotten more complicated since then, in that the function-pointer variables are potentially mutated twice (once initially and once if transport_take_over() is invoked), increasing the value of corralling them into their own struct.

Breaking down the fields in the interface makes it easier to change the backend of for_each_alternate_ref to something that doesn't use "struct ref" internally.

2016-12-20push: add option to push only submodulesBrandon Williams
Teach push the --recurse-submodules=only option. This enables push to recursively push all unpushed submodules while leaving the superproject unpushed. This is a desirable feature in a scenario where updates to the superproject are handled automatically by some other means, perhaps a tool like Gerrit code review. In this scenario, a developer could make a change which spans multiple submodules and then push their commits for code review. Upon completion of the code review, their commits can be accepted and applied to their respective submodules while the code review tool can then automatically update the superproject to the most recent SHA1 of each submodule. This would reduce the merge conflicts in the superproject that could occur if multiple people are contributing to the same submodule.

2016-12-15transport: add from_user parameter to is_transport_allowedBrandon Williams
Add a from_user parameter to is_transport_allowed() to allow http to be able to distinguish between protocol restrictions for redirects versus initial requests. CURLOPT_REDIR_PROTOCOLS can now be set differently from CURLOPT_PROTOCOLS to disallow use of protocols with the "user" policy in redirects. This change allows callers to query if a transport protocol is allowed, given that the caller knows that the protocol is coming from the user (1) or not from the user (0) such as redirects in libcurl. If unknown a -1 should be provided which falls back to reading `GIT_PROTOCOL_FROM_USER` to determine if the protocol came from the user.

2016-10-03abbrev: add FALLBACK_DEFAULT_ABBREV to prepare for auto sizingJunio C Hamano
We'll be introducing a new way to decide the default abbreviation length by initialising DEFAULT_ABBREV to -1 to signal the first call to "find unique abbreviation" codepath to compute a reasonable value based on the number of objects we have to avoid collisions. We have long relied on DEFAULT_ABBREV being a positive concrete value that is used as the abbreviation length when no extra configuration or command line option has overridden it. Some codepaths wants to use such a positive concrete default value even before making their first request to actually trigger the computation for the auto sized default. Introduce FALLBACK_DEFAULT_ABBREV and use it to the code that attempts to align the report from "git fetch". For now, this macro is also used to initialize the default_abbrev variable, but the auto-sizing code will use -1 and then use the value of FALLBACK_DEFAULT_ABBREV as the starting point of auto-sizing.

2016-06-13fetch, upload-pack: --deepen=N extends shallow boundary by N commitsNguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy
In git-fetch, --depth argument is always relative with the latest remote refs. This makes it a bit difficult to cover this use case, where the user wants to make the shallow history, say 3 levels deeper. It would work if remote refs have not moved yet, but nobody can guarantee that, especially when that use case is performed a couple months after the last clone or "git fetch --depth". Also, modifying shallow boundary using --depth does not work well with clones created by --since or --not. This patch fixes that. A new argument --deepen=<N> will add <N> more (*) parent commits to the current history regardless of where remote refs are. Have/Want negotiation is still respected. So if remote refs move, the server will send two chunks: one between "have" and "want" and another to extend shallow history. In theory, the client could send no "want"s in order to get the second chunk only. But the protocol does not allow that. Either you send no want lines, which means ls-remote; or you have to send at least one want line that carries deep-relative to the server.. The main work was done by Dongcan Jiang. I fixed it up here and there. And of course all the bugs belong to me. (*) We could even support --deepen=<N> where <N> is negative. In that case we can cut some history from the shallow clone. This operation (and --depth=<shorter depth>) does not require interaction with remote side (and more complicated to implement as a result).

2015-09-23transport: add a protocol-whitelist environment variableJeff King
If we are cloning an untrusted remote repository into a sandbox, we may also want to fetch remote submodules in order to get the complete view as intended by the other side. However, that opens us up to attacks where a malicious user gets us to clone something they would not otherwise have access to (this is not necessarily a problem by itself, but we may then act on the cloned contents in a way that exposes them to the attacker). Ideally such a setup would sandbox git entirely away from high-value items, but this is not always practical or easy to set up (e.g., OS network controls may block multiple protocols, and we would want to enable some but not others). We can help this case by providing a way to restrict particular protocols. We use a whitelist in the environment. This is more annoying to set up than a blacklist, but defaults to safety if the set of protocols git supports grows). If no whitelist is specified, we continue to default to allowing all protocols (this is an "unsafe" default, but since the minority of users will want this sandboxing effect, it is the only sensible one). A note on the tests: ideally these would all be in a single test file, but the git-daemon and httpd test infrastructure is an all-or-nothing proposition rather than a test-by-test prerequisite. By putting them all together, we would be unable to test the file-local code on machines without apache. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2014-09-15push: the beginning of "git push --signed"Junio C Hamano
While signed tags and commits assert that the objects thusly signed came from you, who signed these objects, there is not a good way to assert that you wanted to have a particular object at the tip of a particular branch. My signing v2.0.1 tag only means I want to call the version v2.0.1, and it does not mean I want to push it out to my 'master' branch---it is likely that I only want it in 'maint', so the signature on the object alone is insufficient. The only assurance to you that 'maint' points at what I wanted to place there comes from your trust on the hosting site and my authentication with it, which cannot easily audited later. Introduce a mechanism that allows you to sign a "push certificate" (for the lack of better name) every time you push, asserting that what object you are pushing to update which ref that used to point at what other object. Think of it as a cryptographic protection for ref updates, similar to signed tags/commits but working on an orthogonal axis. The basic flow based on this mechanism goes like this: 1. You push out your work with "git push --signed". 2. The sending side learns where the remote refs are as usual, together with what protocol extension the receiving end supports. If the receiving end does not advertise the protocol extension "push-cert", an attempt to "git push --signed" fails. Otherwise, a text file, that looks like the following, is prepared in core: certificate version 0.1 pusher Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com> 1315427886 -0700 7339ca65... 21580ecb... refs/heads/master 3793ac56... 12850bec... refs/heads/next The file begins with a few header lines, which may grow as we gain more experience. The 'pusher' header records the name of the signer (the value of user.signingkey configuration variable, falling back to GIT_COMMITTER_{NAME|EMAIL}) and the time of the certificate generation. After the header, a blank line follows, followed by a copy of the protocol message lines. Each line shows the old and the new object name at the tip of the ref this push tries to update, in the way identical to how the underlying "git push" protocol exchange tells the ref updates to the receiving end (by recording the "old" object name, the push certificate also protects against replaying). It is expected that new command packet types other than the old-new-refname kind will be included in push certificate in the same way as would appear in the plain vanilla command packets in unsigned pushes. The user then is asked to sign this push certificate using GPG, formatted in a way similar to how signed tag objects are signed, and the result is sent to the other side (i.e. receive-pack). In the protocol exchange, this step comes immediately before the sender tells what the result of the push should be, which in turn comes before it sends the pack data. 3. When the receiving end sees a push certificate, the certificate is written out as a blob. The pre-receive hook can learn about the certificate by checking GIT_PUSH_CERT environment variable, which, if present, tells the object name of this blob, and make the decision to allow or reject this push. Additionally, the post-receive hook can also look at the certificate, which may be a good place to log all the received certificates for later audits. Because a push certificate carry the same information as the usual command packets in the protocol exchange, we can omit the latter when a push certificate is in use and reduce the protocol overhead. This however is not included in this patch to make it easier to review (in other words, the series at this step should never be released without the remainder of the series, as it implements an interim protocol that will be incompatible with the final one). As such, the documentation update for the protocol is left out of this step. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2013-12-11clone: support remote shallow repositoryNguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy
Cloning from a shallow repository does not follow the "8 steps for new .git/shallow" because if it does we need to get through step 6 for all refs. That means commit walking down to the bottom. Instead the rule to create .git/shallow is simpler and, more importantly, cheap: if a shallow commit is found in the pack, it's probably used (i.e. reachable from some refs), so we add it. Others are dropped. One may notice this method seems flawed by the word "probably". A shallow commit may not be reachable from any refs at all if it's attached to an object island (a group of objects that are not reachable by any refs). If that object island is not complete, a new fetch request may send more objects to connect it to some ref. At that time, because we incorrectly installed the shallow commit in this island, the user will not see anything after that commit (fsck is still ok). This is not desired. Given that object islands are rare (C Git never sends such islands for security reasons) and do not really harm the repository integrity, a tradeoff is made to surprise the user occasionally but work faster everyday. A new option --strict could be added later that follows exactly the 8 steps. "git prune" can also learn to remove dangling objects _and_ the shallow commits that are attached to them from .git/shallow.

2013-09-09Merge branch 'jc/transport-do-not-use-connect-twice-in-fetch'Junio C Hamano
The auto-tag-following code in "git fetch" tries to reuse the same transport twice when the serving end does not cooperate and does not give tags that point to commits that are asked for as part of the primary transfer. Unfortunately, Git-aware transport helper interface is not designed to be used more than once, hence this does not work over smart-http transfer. * jc/transport-do-not-use-connect-twice-in-fetch: builtin/fetch.c: Fix a sparse warning fetch: work around "transport-take-over" hack fetch: refactor code that fetches leftover tags fetch: refactor code that prepares a transport fetch: rename file-scope global "transport" to "gtransport" t5802: add test for connect helper
2013-08-07fetch: work around "transport-take-over" hackJunio C Hamano
A Git-aware "connect" transport allows the "transport_take_over" to redirect generic transport requests like fetch(), push_refs() and get_refs_list() to the native Git transport handling methods. The take-over process replaces transport->data with a fake data that these method implementations understand. While this hack works OK for a single request, it breaks when the transport needs to make more than one requests. transport->data that used to hold necessary information for the specific helper to work correctly is destroyed during the take-over process. One codepath that this matters is "git fetch" in auto-follow mode; when it does not get all the tags that ought to point at the history it got (which can be determined by looking at the peeled tags in the initial advertisement) from the primary transfer, it internally makes a second request to complete the fetch. Because "take-over" hack has already destroyed the data necessary to talk to the transport helper by the time this happens, the second request cannot make a request to the helper to make another connection to fetch these additional tags. Mark such a transport as "cannot_reuse", and use a separate transport to perform the backfill fetch in order to work around this breakage. Note that this problem does not manifest itself when running t5802, because our upload-pack gives you all the necessary auto-followed tags during the primary transfer. You would need to step through "git fetch" in a debugger, stop immediately after the primary transfer finishes and writes these auto-followed tags, remove the tag references and repack/prune the repository to convince the "find-non-local-tags" procedure that the primary transfer failed to give us all the necessary tags, and then let it continue, in order to trigger the bug in the secondary transfer this patch fixes.

This plugs the push_cas_option data collected by the command line option parser to the transport system with a new function apply_push_cas(), which is called after match_push_refs() has already been called. At this point, we know which remote we are talking to, and what remote refs we are going to update, so we can fill in the details that may have been missing from the command line, such as (1) what abbreviated refname the user gave us matches the actual refname at the remote; and (2) which remote-tracking branch in our local repository to read the value of the object to expect at the remote. to populate the old_sha1_expect[] field of each of the remote ref. As stated in the documentation, the use of remote-tracking branch as the default is a tentative one, and we may come up with a better logic as we gain experience.

2013-05-28clone: open a shortcut for connectivity checkNguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy
In order to make sure the cloned repository is good, we run "rev-list --objects --not --all $new_refs" on the repository. This is expensive on large repositories. This patch attempts to mitigate the impact in this special case. In the "good" clone case, we only have one pack. If all of the following are met, we can be sure that all objects reachable from the new refs exist, which is the intention of running "rev-list ...": - all refs point to an object in the pack - there are no dangling pointers in any object in the pack - no objects in the pack point to objects outside the pack The second and third checks can be done with the help of index-pack as a slight variation of --strict check (which introduces a new condition for the shortcut: pack transfer must be used and the number of objects large enough to call index-pack). The first is checked in check_everything_connected after we get an "ok" from index-pack. "index-pack + new checks" is still faster than the current "index-pack + rev-list", which is the whole point of this patch. If any of the conditions fail, we fall back to the good old but expensive "rev-list ..". In that case it's even more expensive because we have to pay for the new checks in index-pack. But that should only happen when the other side is either buggy or malicious.

This shortcut does not apply to unpack-objects code path either because the number of objects must be small in order to trigger that code path.

2013-03-25Merge branch 'jc/push-follow-tag'Junio C Hamano
The new "--follow-tags" option tells "git push" to push relevant annotated tags when pushing branches out. * jc/push-follow-tag: push: --follow-tags commit.c: use clear_commit_marks_many() in in_merge_bases_many() commit.c: add in_merge_bases_many() commit.c: add clear_commit_marks_many()
2013-03-05push: --follow-tagsJunio C Hamano
The new option "--follow-tags" tells "git push" to push annotated tags that are missing from the other side and that can be reached by the history that is otherwise pushed out. For example, if you are using the "simple", "current", or "upstream" push, you would ordinarily push the history leading to the commit at your current HEAD and nothing else. With this option, you would also push all annotated tags that can be reached from that commit to the other side. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2013-02-04Merge branch 'jc/push-reject-reasons'Junio C Hamano
Improve error and advice messages given locally when "git push" refuses when it cannot compute fast-forwardness by separating these cases from the normal "not a fast-forward; merge first and push again" case. * jc/push-reject-reasons: push: finishing touches to explain REJECT_ALREADY_EXISTS better push: introduce REJECT_FETCH_FIRST and REJECT_NEEDS_FORCE push: further simplify the logic to assign rejection reason push: further clean up fields of "struct ref"
2013-01-24push: introduce REJECT_FETCH_FIRST and REJECT_NEEDS_FORCEJunio C Hamano
When we push to update an existing ref, if: * the object at the tip of the remote is not a commit; or * the object we are pushing is not a commit, it won't be correct to suggest to fetch, integrate and push again, as the old and new objects will not "merge". We should explain that the push must be forced when there is a non-committish object is involved in such a case. If we do not have the current object at the tip of the remote, we do not even know that object, when fetched, is something that can be merged. In such a case, suggesting to pull first just like non-fast-forward case may not be technically correct, but in practice, most such failures are seen when you try to push your work to a branch without knowing that somebody else already pushed to update the same branch since you forked, so "pull first" would work as a suggestion most of the time. And if the object at the tip is not a commit, "pull first" will fail, without making any permanent damage. As a side effect, it also makes the error message the user will get during the next "push" attempt easier to understand, now the user is aware that a non-commit object is involved. In these cases, the current code already rejects such a push on the client end, but we used the same error and advice messages as the ones used when rejecting a non-fast-forward push, i.e. pull from there and integrate before pushing again. Introduce new rejection reasons and reword the messages appropriately. [jc: with help by Peff on message details] Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2013-01-18push: Add support for pre-push hooksAaron Schrab
Add support for a pre-push hook which can be used to determine if the set of refs to be pushed is suitable for the target repository. The hook is run with two arguments specifying the name and location of the destination repository. Information about what is to be pushed is provided by sending lines of the following form to the hook's standard input: <local ref> SP <local sha1> SP <remote ref> SP <remote sha1> LF If the hook exits with a non-zero status, the push will be aborted. This will allow the script to determine if the push is acceptable based on the target repository and branch(es), the commits which are to be pushed, and even the source branches in some cases.

2012-10-29send-pack: move core code to libgit.aNguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy
send_pack() is used by transport.c, part of libgit.a while it stays in builtin/send-pack.c. Move it to send-pack.c so that we won't get undefined reference if a program that uses libgit.a happens to pull it in.

2012-09-14fetch: align per-ref summary report in UTF-8 localesNguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy
fetch does printf("%-*s", width, "foo") where "foo" can be a utf-8 string, but width is in bytes, not columns. For ASCII it's fine as one byte takes one column. For utf-8, this may result in misaligned ref summary table. Introduce gettext_width() function that returns the string length in columns (currently only supports utf-8 locales). Make the code use TRANSPORT_SUMMARY(x) where the length is compensated properly in non-English locales.
