http-backend: handle HTTP_GIT_PROTOCOL CGI variable

2021-09-10T22:34:59Z

When a client requests the v2 protocol over HTTP, they set the Git-Protocol header. Webservers will generally make that available to our CGI as HTTP_GIT_PROTOCOL in the environment. However, that's not sufficient for upload-pack, etc, to respect it; they look in GIT_PROTOCOL (without the HTTP_ prefix). Either the webserver or the CGI is responsible for relaying that HTTP header into the GIT_PROTOCOL variable. Traditionally, our tests have configured the webserver to do so, but that's a burden on the server admin. We can make this work out of the box by having the http-backend CGI copy the contents of HTTP_GIT_PROTOCOL to GIT_PROTOCOL. There are no new tests here. By removing the SetEnvIf line from our test Apache config, we're now relying on this behavior of http-backend to trigger the v2 protocol there (and there are numerous tests that fail if this doesn't work). There is one subtlety here: we copy HTTP_GIT_PROTOCOL only if there is no existing GIT_PROTOCOL variable. That leaves the webserver admin free to override the client's decision if they choose. This is unlikely to be useful in practice, but is more flexible. And indeed, it allows the v2-to-v0 fallback test added in the previous commit to continue working.

upload-pack: document and rename --advertise-refs

2021-08-05T15:59:37Z

The --advertise-refs documentation in git-upload-pack added in 9812f2136b3 (upload-pack.c: use parse-options API, 2016-05-31) hasn't been entirely true ever since v2 support was implemented in e52449b6722 (connect: request remote refs using v2, 2018-03-15). Under v2 we don't advertise the refs at all, but rather dump the capabilities header. This option has always been an obscure internal implementation detail, it wasn't even documented for git-receive-pack. Since it has exactly one user let's rename it to --http-backend-info-refs, which is more accurate and points the reader in the right direction. Let's also cross-link this from the protocol v1 and v2 documentation. I'm retaining a hidden --advertise-refs alias in case there's any external users of this, and making both options hidden to the bash completion (as with most other internal-only options).

serve.[ch]: remove "serve_options", split up --advertise-refs code

2021-08-05T15:59:37Z

The "advertise capabilities" mode of serve.c added in ed10cb952d3 (serve: introduce git-serve, 2018-03-15) is only used by the http-backend.c to call {upload,receive}-pack with the --advertise-refs parameter. See 42526b478e3 (Add stateless RPC options to upload-pack, receive-pack, 2009-10-30). Let's just make cmd_upload_pack() take the two (v2) or three (v2) parameters the the v2/v1 servicing functions need directly, and pass those in via the function signature. The logic of whether daemon mode is implied by the timeout belongs in the v1 function (only used there). Once we split up the "advertise v2 refs" from "serve v2 request" it becomes clear that v2 never cared about those in combination. The only time it mattered was for v1 to emit its ref advertisement, in that case we wanted to emit the smart-http-only "no-done" capability. Since we only do that in the --advertise-refs codepath let's just have it set "do_done" itself in v1's upload_pack() just before send_ref(), at that point --advertise-refs and --stateless-rpc in combination are redundant (the only user is get_info_refs() in http-backend.c), so we can just pass in --advertise-refs only. Since we need to touch all the serve() and advertise_capabilities() codepaths let's rename them to less clever and obvious names, it's been suggested numerous times, the latest of which is [1]'s suggestion for protocol_v2_serve_loop(). Let's go with that. 1. https://lore.kernel.org/git/CAFQ2z_NyGb8rju5CKzmo6KhZXD0Dp21u-BbyCb2aNxLEoSPRJw@mail.gmail.com/ Signed-off-by: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

strvec: fix indentation in renamed calls

2020-07-28T22:02:18Z

Code which split an argv_array call across multiple lines, like: argv_array_pushl(&args, "one argument", "another argument", "and more", NULL); was recently mechanically renamed to use strvec, which results in mis-matched indentation like: strvec_pushl(&args, "one argument", "another argument", "and more", NULL); Let's fix these up to align the arguments with the opening paren. I did this manually by sifting through the results of: git jump grep 'strvec_.*,$' and liberally applying my editor's auto-format. Most of the changes are of the form shown above, though I also normalized a few that had originally used a single-tab indentation (rather than our usual style of aligning with the open paren). I also rewrapped a couple of obvious cases (e.g., where previously too-long lines became short enough to fit on one), but I wasn't aggressive about it. In cases broken to three or more lines, the grouping of arguments is sometimes meaningful, and it wasn't worth my time or reviewer time to ponder each case individually.

strvec: convert more callers away from argv_array name

2020-07-28T22:02:18Z

We eventually want to drop the argv_array name and just use strvec consistently. There's no particular reason we have to do it all at once, or care about interactions between converted and unconverted bits. Because of our preprocessor compat layer, the names are interchangeable to the compiler (so even a definition and declaration using different names is OK). This patch converts remaining files from the first half of the alphabet, to keep the diff to a manageable size. The conversion was done purely mechanically with: git ls-files '*.c' '*.h' | xargs perl -i -pe ' s/ARGV_ARRAY/STRVEC/g; s/argv_array/strvec/g; ' and then selectively staging files with "git add '[abcdefghjkl]*'". We'll deal with any indentation/style fallouts separately. Signed-off-by: Jeff King Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

strvec: rename files from argv-array to strvec

2020-07-28T22:02:17Z

This requires updating #include lines across the code-base, but that's all fairly mechanical, and was done with: git ls-files '*.c' '*.h' | xargs perl -i -pe 's/argv-array.h/strvec.h/' Signed-off-by: Jeff King Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

http-backend: allow 64-character hex names

In an SHA-256-backed repository using the http-backend handler for dumb protocol clients, it may be necessary to access the raw packs using their full SHA-256-specified names. Allow packs and loose objects to be accessed using their full SHA-256-specified 64-character hex names. Signed-off-by: brian m. carlson Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano
