<id>urn:sha1:9de345cb273cc7faaeda279c7e07149d8a15a319</id>
<content type='text'>
The wincred credential helper uses a static buffer ("target") as a
unique key for storing and comparing against internal storage. It does
this by building up a string is supposed to look like:

    git:$PROTOCOL://$USERNAME@$HOST/@PATH

However, the static "target" buffer is declared as a wide string with no
more than 1,024 wide characters. The first call to wcsncat() is almost
correct (it copies no more than ARRAY_SIZE(target) wchar_t's), but does
not account for the trailing NUL, introducing an off-by-one error.

But subsequent calls to wcsncat() have an additional problem on top of
the off-by-one. They do not account for the length of the existing
wide string being built up in 'target'. So the following:

    $ perl -e '
        my $x = "x" x 1_000;
        print "protocol=$x\nhost=$x\nusername=$x\npath=$x\n"
      ' |
      C\:/Program\ Files/Git/mingw64/libexec/git-core/git-credential-wincred.exe get

will result in a segmentation fault from over-filling buffer.

This bug is as old as the wincred helper itself, dating back to
a6253da0f3 (contrib: add win32 credential-helper, 2012-07-27). Commit
8b2d219a3d (wincred: improve compatibility with windows versions,
2013-01-10) replaced the use of strncat() with wcsncat(), but retained
the buggy behavior.

Fix this by using a "target_append()" helper which accounts for both the
length of the existing string within the buffer, as well as the trailing
NUL character.

<title>GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS: wire up NO_GITWEB option</title>

<id>urn:sha1:cbcc2f79117ded0161b012dc5107f181b5d87b09</id>
<content type='text'>
Building our "gitweb" interface is optional in our Makefile and in Meson
and not wired up at all with CMake, but disabling it causes a couple of
tests in the t950* range that pull in "t/lib-gitweb.sh". This is because
the test library knows to execute gitweb-tests based on whether or not
Perl is available, but we may have Perl available and still end up not
building gitweb e.g. with `make test NO_GITWEB=YesPlease`.

Fix this issue by wiring up a new "NO_GITWEB" build option so that we
can skip these tests in case gitweb is not built.

Note that this new build option requires us to move the configuration of
GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS to a later point in our Meson build instructions. But
as that file is only consumed by our tests at runtime this change does
not cause any issues.

The variables declared and substituted in GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS are not
ordered in any obvious way. Sort them alphabetically so that it becomes
obvious where new variables should go.

<title>cmake/vcxproj: stop special-casing `remote-ext`</title>

<id>urn:sha1:2456374e782b83c4087cc819ea019ea92b535bf7</id>
<content type='text'>
When the `vcxproj` target was introduced in `config.mak.uname` to allow
building Git with the Visual C toolchain, the `git remote-ext` command
was always executed in its dashed form. Therefore, it was impossible to
pass the test suite unless that command existed in its dashed form, and
we had to special-case this.

Later, when the `vcxproj` target got out of fashion because Visual
Studio gained native support for CMake builds, this special-casing was
copied without questioning it.

But as of 675df192c5f (transport-helper: do not run git-remote-ext etc.
in dashed form, 2020-08-26), the reason for this special-casing no
longer exists. So let's just drop it.
