<content type='text'>
Use of the `the_repository` variable is deprecated nowadays, and we
slowly but steadily convert the codebase to not use it anymore. Instead,
callers should be passing down the repository to work on via parameters.

It is hard though to prove that a given code unit does not use this
variable anymore. The most trivial case, merely demonstrating that there
is no direct use of `the_repository`, is already a bit of a pain during
code reviews as the reviewer needs to manually verify claims made by the
patch author. The bigger problem though is that we have many interfaces
that implicitly rely on `the_repository`.

Introduce a new `USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE` macro that allows code
units to opt into usage of `the_repository`. The intent of this macro is
to demonstrate that a certain code unit does not use this variable
anymore, and to keep it from new dependencies on it in future changes,
be it explicit or implicit

For now, the macro only guards `the_repository` itself as well as
`the_hash_algo`. There are many more known interfaces where we have an
implicit dependency on `the_repository`, but those are not guarded at
the current point in time. Over time though, we should start to add
guards as required (or even better, just remove them).

Define the macro as required in our code units. As expected, most of our
code still relies on the global variable. Nearly all of our builtins
rely on the variable as there is no way yet to pass `the_repository` to
their entry point. For now, declare the macro in "biultin.h" to keep the
required changes at least a little bit more contained.

Each of these were checked with
   gcc -E -I. ${SOURCE_FILE} | grep ${HEADER_FILE}
to ensure that removing the direct inclusion of the header actually
resulted in that header no longer being included at all (i.e. that
no other header pulled it in transitively).

...except for a few cases where we verified that although the header
was brought in transitively, nothing from it was directly used in
that source file.  These cases were:
  * builtin/credential-cache.c
  * builtin/pull.c
  * builtin/send-pack.c

alloc_nr, ALLOC_GROW, and ALLOC_GROW_BY are commonly used macros for
dynamic array allocation. Moving these macros to git-compat-util.h with
the other alloc macros focuses alloc.[ch] to allocation for Git objects
and additionally allows us to remove inclusions to alloc.h from files
that solely used the above macros.

<title>treewide: include parse-options.h in source files</title>

<id>urn:sha1:49fd5511945977882ef2cd8b3c00ed25ac208512</id>
<content type='text'>
The builtins 'ls-remote', 'pack-objects', 'receive-pack', 'reflog' and
'send-pack' use parse_options(), but their source files don't directly
include 'parse-options.h'.  Furthermore, the source files
'diagnose.c', 'list-objects-filter-options.c', 'remote.c' and
'send-pack.c' define option parsing callback functions, while
'revision.c' defines an option parsing helper function, and thus need
access to various fields in 'struct option' and 'struct
parse_opt_ctx_t', but they don't directly include 'parse-options.h'
either.  They all can still be built, of course, because they include
one of the header files that does include 'parse-options.h' (though
unnecessarily, see the next commit).

Add those missing includes to these files, as our general rule is that
"a C file must directly include the header files that declare the
functions and the types it uses".

This allows us to replace includes of cache.h with includes of the much
smaller alloc.h in many places.  It does mean that we also need to add
includes of alloc.h in a number of C files.

OPT_PARSE_LIST_OBJECTS_FILTER_INIT() with a non-NULL second argument
passes a function pointer via an object pointer, which is undefined.  It
may work fine on platforms that implement C99 extension J.5.7 (Function
pointer casts).  Remove the unused macro and avoid the dependency on
that extension.

<title>list-objects-filter: initialize sub-filter structs</title>
<updated>2022-09-22T19:43:04Z</updated>

<name>Jeff King</name>
<email>peff@peff.net</email>
</author>
<published>2022-09-22T09:35:33Z</published>
<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.shady.money/git/commit/?id=4eaed7c2f2aed1ef510ff97e7e91fa0cbcbef65d'/>
<id>urn:sha1:4eaed7c2f2aed1ef510ff97e7e91fa0cbcbef65d</id>
<content type='text'>
Since commit c54980ab83 (list-objects-filter: convert filter_spec to a
strbuf, 2022-09-11), building with SANITIZE=undefined triggers an error
in t5616.

The problem is that we end up with a strbuf that has been
zero-initialized instead of via STRBUF_INIT. Feeding that strbuf to
strbuf_addbuf() in list_objects_filter_copy() means we will call memcpy
like:

   memcpy(some_actual_buffer, NULL, 0);

This works on most systems because we're copying zero bytes, but it is
technically undefined behavior to ever pass NULL to memcpy.

Even though c54980ab83 is where the bug manifests, that is only because
we switched away from a string_list, which is OK with being
zero-initialized (though it may cause other problems by not duplicating
the strings, it happened to be OK in this instance).

The actual bug is caused by the commit before that, 2a01bdedf8
(list-objects-filter: add and use initializers, 2022-09-11). There we
consistently initialize the top-level filter structs, but we forgot the
dynamically allocated ones we stick in filter_options-&gt;sub when creating
combined filters.

Note that we need to fix two spots here: where we parse a "combine:"
filter, but also where we transform from a single-filter into a combined
one after seeing multiple "--filter" options. In the second spot, we'll
do some minor refactoring to avoid repeating our very-long array index.
