signed push: teach smart-HTTP to pass "git push --signed" around

2014-09-17T21:58:04Z

The "--signed" option received by "git push" is first passed to the transport layer, which the native transport directly uses to notice that a push certificate needs to be sent. When the transport-helper is involved, however, the option needs to be told to the helper with set_helper_option(), and the helper needs to take necessary action. For the smart-HTTP helper, the "necessary action" involves spawning the "git send-pack" subprocess with the "--signed" option. Once the above all gets wired in, the smart-HTTP transport now can use the push certificate mechanism to authenticate its pushes. Add a test that is modeled after tests for the native transport in t5534-push-signed.sh to t5541-http-push-smart.sh. Update the test Apache configuration to pass GNUPGHOME environment variable through. As PassEnv would trigger warnings for an environment variable that is not set, export it from test-lib.sh set to a harmless value when GnuPG is not being used in the tests. Note that the added test is deliberately loose and does not check the nonce in this step. This is because the stateless RPC mode is inevitably flaky and a nonce that comes back in the actual push processing is one issued by a different process; if the two interactions with the server crossed a second boundary, the nonces will not match and such a check will fail. A later patch in the series will work around this shortcoming. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

http: fix charset detection of extract_content_type()

2014-06-17T22:25:00Z

extract_content_type() could not extract a charset parameter if the parameter is not the first one and there is a whitespace and a following semicolon just before the parameter. For example: text/plain; format=fixed ;charset=utf-8 And it also could not handle correctly some other cases, such as: text/plain; charset=utf-8; format=fixed text/plain; some-param="a long value with ;semicolons;"; charset=utf-8 Thanks-to: Jeff King Signed-off-by: Yi EungJun Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

remote-curl: reencode http error messages

2014-05-27T16:59:22Z

We currently recognize an error message with a content-type "text/plain; charset=utf-16" as text, but we ignore the charset parameter entirely. Let's encode it to log_output_encoding, which is presumably something the user's terminal can handle. Signed-off-by: Jeff King Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

http: extract type/subtype portion of content-type

2014-05-27T16:57:00Z

When we get a content-type from curl, we get the whole header line, including any parameters, and without any normalization (like downcasing or whitespace) applied. If we later try to match it with strcmp() or even strcasecmp(), we may get false negatives. This could cause two visible behaviors: 1. We might fail to recognize a smart-http server by its content-type. 2. We might fail to relay text/plain error messages to users (especially if they contain a charset parameter). This patch teaches the http code to extract and normalize just the type/subtype portion of the string. This is technically passing out less information to the callers, who can no longer see the parameters. But none of the current callers cares, and a future patch will add back an easier-to-use method for accessing those parameters. Signed-off-by: Jeff King Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

t5550: test display of remote http error messages

2014-05-23T19:43:51Z

Since commit 426e70d (remote-curl: show server content on http errors, 2013-04-05), we relay any text/plain error messages from the remote server to the user. However, we never tested it. Signed-off-by: Jeff King Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

t/lib-httpd: use write_script to copy CGI scripts

2014-05-23T19:41:50Z

Using write_script will set our shebang line appropriately with $SHELL_PATH. The script that is there now is quite simple and likely to succeed even with a non-POSIX /bin/sh, but it does not hurt to be defensive. Signed-off-by: Jeff King Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

use distinct username/password for http auth tests

2014-01-02T18:25:03Z

The httpd server we set up to test git's http client code knows about a single account, in which both the username and password are "user@host" (the unusual use of the "@" here is to verify that we handle the character correctly when URL escaped). This means that we may miss a certain class of errors in which the username and password are mixed up internally by git. We can make our tests more robust by having distinct values for the username and password. In addition to tweaking the server passwd file and the client URL, we must teach the "askpass" harness to accept multiple values. As a bonus, this makes the setup of some tests more obvious; when we are expecting git to ask only about the password, we can seed the username askpass response with a bogus value.

remote-curl: rewrite base url from info/refs redirects

2013-10-15T00:01:34Z

For efficiency and security reasons, an earlier commit in this series taught http_get_* to re-write the base url based on redirections we saw while making a specific request. This commit wires that option into the info/refs request, meaning that a redirect from http://example.com/foo.git/info/refs to https://example.com/bar.git/info/refs will behave as if "https://example.com/bar.git" had been provided to git in the first place. The tests bear some explanation. We introduce two new hierearchies into the httpd test config: 1. Requests to /smart-redir-limited will work only for the initial info/refs request, but not any subsequent requests. As a result, we can confirm whether the client is re-rooting its requests after the initial contact, since otherwise it will fail (it will ask for "repo.git/git-upload-pack", which is not redirected). 2. Requests to smart-redir-auth will redirect, and require auth after the redirection. Since we are using the redirected base for further requests, we also update the credential struct, in order not to mislead the user (or credential helpers) about which credential is needed. We can therefore check the GIT_ASKPASS prompts to make sure we are prompting for the new location. Because we have neither multiple servers nor https support in our test setup, we can only redirect between paths, meaning we need to turn on credential.useHttpPath to see the difference.

http: add http.savecookies option to write out HTTP cookies

2013-07-30T16:19:04Z

HTTP servers may send Set-Cookie headers in a response and expect them to be set on subsequent requests. By default, libcurl behavior is to store such cookies in memory and reuse them across requests within a single session. However, it may also make sense, depending on the server and the cookies, to store them across sessions. Provide users an option to enable this behavior, writing cookies out to the same file specified in http.cookiefile. Signed-off-by: Dave Borowitz Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano
