<id>urn:sha1:d2c84dad1c88f40906799bc879f70b965efd8ba6</id>
<content type='text'>
When creating a directory on Windows whose path ends in a space or a
period (or chains thereof), the Win32 API "helpfully" trims those. For
example, `mkdir("abc ");` will return success, but actually create a
directory called `abc` instead.

This stems back to the DOS days, when all file names had exactly 8
characters plus exactly 3 characters for the file extension, and the
only way to have shorter names was by padding with spaces.

Sadly, this "helpful" behavior is a bit inconsistent: after a successful
`mkdir("abc ");`, a `mkdir("abc /def")` will actually _fail_ (because
the directory `abc ` does not actually exist).

Even if it would work, we now have a serious problem because a Git
repository could contain directories `abc` and `abc `, and on Windows,
they would be "merged" unintentionally.

As these paths are illegal on Windows, anyway, let's disallow any
accesses to such paths on that Operating System.

For practical reasons, this behavior is still guarded by the
config setting `core.protectNTFS`: it is possible (and at least two
regression tests make use of it) to create commits without involving the
worktree. In such a scenario, it is of course possible -- even on
Windows -- to create such file names.

Among other consequences, this patch disallows submodules' paths to end
in spaces on Windows (which would formerly have confused Git enough to
try to write into incorrect paths, anyway).

While this patch does not fix a vulnerability on its own, it prevents an
attack vector that was exploited in demonstrations of a number of
recently-fixed security bugs.

The regression test added to `t/t7417-submodule-path-url.sh` reflects
that attack vector.

Note that we have to adjust the test case "prevent git~1 squatting on
Windows" in `t/t7415-submodule-names.sh` because of a very subtle issue.
It tries to clone two submodules whose names differ only in a trailing
period character, and as a consequence their git directories differ in
the same way. Previously, when Git tried to clone the second submodule,
it thought that the git directory already existed (because on Windows,
when you create a directory with the name `b.` it actually creates `b`),
but with this patch, the first submodule's clone will fail because of
the illegal name of the git directory. Therefore, when cloning the
second submodule, Git will take a different code path: a fresh clone
(without an existing git directory). Both code paths fail to clone the
second submodule, both because the the corresponding worktree directory
exists and is not empty, but the error messages are worded differently.

<id>urn:sha1:e159b8107190aa53b27f9f106e5874597106eb88</id>

Commit 108f530385 (pack-objects: move tree_depth into 'struct
packing_data', 2018-08-16) started maintaining a tree_depth array that
matches the "objects" array. We extend the array when:

  1. The objects array is extended, in which case we use realloc to
     extend the tree_depth array.

  2. A caller asks to store a tree_depth for object N, and this is the
     first such request; we create the array from scratch and store the
     value for N.

In the latter case, though, we use regular xmalloc(), and the depth
values for any objects besides N is undefined. This happens to not
trigger a bug with the current code, but the reasons are quite subtle:

 - we never ask about the depth for any object with index i &lt; N. This is
   because we store the depth immediately for all trees and blobs. So
   any such "i" must be a non-tree, and therefore we will never need to
   care about its depth (in fact, we really only care about the depth of
   trees).

 - there are no objects at this point with index i &gt; N, because we
   always fill in the depth for a tree immediately after its object
   entry is created (we may still allocate uninitialized depth entries,
   but they'll be initialized by packlist_alloc() when it initializes
   the entry in the "objects" array).

So it works, but only by chance. To be defensive, let's zero the array,
which matches the "unset" values which would be handed out by
oe_tree_depth() already.

<title>git-compat-util: prefer poll.h to sys/poll.h</title>

POSIX specifies that &lt;poll.h&gt; is the correct header for poll(2)
whereas &lt;sys/poll.h&gt; is only needed for some old libc.

Let's follow the POSIX way by default.

This effectively eliminates musl's warning:

    warning redirecting incorrect #include &lt;sys/poll.h&gt; to &lt;poll.h&gt;
