Instead of just disallowing '.' and '..', make use of verify_path() to
ensure that fast-import will disallow anything we wouldn't allow into
the index, such as anything under .git/, .gitmodules as a symlink, or
a dos drive prefix on Windows.
Since a few fast-export and fast-import tests that tried to stress-test
the correct handling of quoting relied on filenames that fail
is_valid_win32_path(), such as spaces or periods at the end of filenames
or backslashes within the filename, turn off core.protectNTFS for those
tests to ensure they keep passing.

In the current implementation, if refs/remotes/$remote/HEAD does not
exist, running fetch will create it, but if it does exist it will not do
anything, which is a somewhat safe and minimal approach. Unfortunately,
for users who wish to NOT have refs/remotes/$remote/HEAD set for any
reason (e.g. so that `git rev-parse origin` doesn't accidentally point
them somewhere they do not want to), there is no way to remove this
behaviour. On the other side of the spectrum, users may want fetch to
automatically update HEAD or at least give them a warning if something
changed on the remote.
Introduce a new setting, remote.$remote.followRemoteHEAD with four
options:
- "never": do not ever do anything, not even create
- "create": the current behaviour, now the default behaviour
- "warn": print a message if remote and local HEAD is different
- "always": silently update HEAD on every change

This teaches the `worktree repair` command to respect the
`--[no-]relative-paths` CLI option and `worktree.useRelativePaths`
config setting. If an existing worktree with an absolute path is repaired
with `--relative-paths`, the links will be replaced with relative paths,
even if the original path was correct. This allows a user to covert
existing worktrees between absolute/relative as desired.
To simplify things, both linking files are written when one of the files
needs to be repaired. In some cases, this fixes the other file before it
is checked, in other cases this results in a correct file being written
with the same contents.

This introduces the `--[no-]relative-paths` CLI option and
`worktree.useRelativePaths` configuration setting to the `worktree add`
command. When enabled these options allow worktrees to be linked using
relative paths, enhancing portability across environments where absolute
paths may differ (e.g., containerized setups, shared network drives).
Git still creates absolute paths by default, but these options allow
users to opt-in to relative paths if desired.
The t2408 test file is removed and more comprehensive tests are
written for the various worktree operations in their own files.

When `unbundle()` is invoked, fsck verification may be configured by
passing the `VERIFY_BUNDLE_FSCK` flag. This mechanism allows fsck checks
on the bundle to be enabled or disabled entirely. To facilitate more
fine-grained fsck configuration, additional context must be provided to
`unbundle()`.
Introduce the `unbundle_opts` type, which wraps the existing
`verify_bundle_flags`, to facilitate future extension of `unbundle()`
configuration. Also update `unbundle()` and its call sites to accept
this new options type instead of the flags directly. The end behavior is
functionally the same, but allows for the set of configurable options to
be extended. This is leveraged in a subsequent commit to enable fsck
message severity configuration.

In 9b1cb5070f (builtin: add a repository parameter for builtin
functions, 2024-09-13) the repository was passed down to all builtin
commands. This allowed the repository to be passed down to lower layers
without depending on the global `the_repository` variable.
Continue this work by also passing down the repository parameter from
the command to sub-commands. This will help pass down the repository to
other subsystems and cleanup usage of global variables like
'the_repository' and 'the_hash_algo'.

If a user specified e.g.
M 100644 :1 ../some-file
then fast-import previously would happily create a git history where
there is a tree in the top-level directory named "..", and with a file
inside that directory named "some-file". The top-level ".." directory
causes problems. While git checkout will die with errors and fsck will
report hasDotdot problems, the user is going to have problems trying to
remove the problematic file. Simply avoid creating this bad history in

When adding a remote to bare repository with "git remote add --mirror",
running fetch will fail to update HEAD to the remote's HEAD, since it
does not know how to handle bare repositories. On the other hand HEAD
already has content, since "git init --bare" has already set HEAD to
whatever is the default branch set for the user. Unless this - by chance
- is the same as the remote's HEAD, HEAD will be pointing to a bad
symref. Teach set_head to handle bare repositories, by overwriting HEAD
so it mirrors the remote's HEAD.
Note, that in this case overriding the local HEAD reference is
necessary, since HEAD will exist before fetch can be run, but this
should not be an issue, since the whole purpose of --mirror is to be an
exact mirror of the remote, so following any changes to HEAD makes
sense.
Also note, that although "git remote set-head" also fails when trying to
update the remote's locally tracked HEAD in a mirrored bare repository,
the usage of the command does not make much sense after this patch:
fetch will update the remote HEAD correctly, and setting it manually to
something else is antithetical to the concept of mirroring.

Currently, set-head --auto will print a message saying "remote/HEAD set
to branch", which implies something was changed.
Change the output of --auto, so the output actually reflects what was
done: a) set a previously unset HEAD, b) change HEAD because remote
changed or c) no updates. As edge cases, if HEAD is changed from
a previous symbolic reference that was not a remote branch, explicitly
call attention to this fact, and also notify the user if the previous
reference was not a symbolic reference.

There are two users of `UNLEAK()` left in our codebase:
- In "builtin/clone.c", annotating the `repo` variable. That leak has
already been fixed though as you can see in the context, where we do
know to free `repo_to_free`.
- In "builtin/diff.c", to unleak entries of the `blob[]` array. That
leak has also been fixed, because the entries we assign to that
array come from `rev.pending.objects`, and we do eventually release
`rev`.
This neatly demonstrates one of the issues with `UNLEAK()`: it is quite
easy for the annotation to become stale. A second issue is that its
whole intent is to paper over leaks. And while that has been a necessary
evil in the past, because Git was leaking left and right, it isn't
really much of an issue nowadays where our test suite has no known leaks
anymore.
Remove the last two users of this macro.

The `check_git_cmd()` function is declared to return a string constant.
And while it sometimes does return a constant, it may also return an
allocated string in two cases:
- When handling aliases. This case is already marked with `UNLEAK()`
to work around the leak.
- When handling unknown commands in case "help.autocorrect" is
enabled. This one is not marked with `UNLEAK()`.
The function only has a single caller, so let's fix its return type to
be non-constant, consistently return an allocated string and free it at
its callsite to plug the leak.

Both `git sparse-checkout add` and `git sparse-checkout set` accept a
list of additional directories or patterns. These get massaged via calls
to `sanitize_paths()`, which may end up modifying the passed-in array by
updating its pointers to be prefixed paths. This allocates memory that
we never free.
Refactor the code to instead use a `struct strvec`, which makes it way
easier for us to track the lifetime correctly. The couple of extra
memory allocations likely do not matter as we only ever populate it with
command line arguments.

We have already set up the infrastructure to check the consistency for
refs, but we do not support multiple worktrees. However, "git-fsck(1)"
will check the refs of worktrees. As we decide to get feature parity
with "git-fsck(1)", we need to set up support for multiple worktrees.
Because each worktree has its own specific refs, instead of just showing
the users "refs/worktree/foo", we need to display the full name such as
"worktrees/<id>/refs/worktree/foo". So we should know the id of the
worktree to get the full name. Add a new parameter "struct worktree *"
for "refs-internal.h::fsck_fn". Then change the related functions to
follow this new interface.
The "packed-refs" only exists in the main worktree, so we should only
check "packed-refs" in the main worktree. Use "is_main_worktree" method
to skip checking "packed-refs" in "packed_fsck" function.
Then, enhance the "files-backend.c::files_fsck_refs_dir" function to add
"worktree/<id>/" prefix when we are not in the main worktree.
Last, add a new test to check the refname when there are multiple
worktrees to exercise the code.

There are two different ways to commit a transaction:
- `ref_transaction_commit()` can be used to commit a regular
transaction and is what almost every caller wants.
- `initial_ref_transaction_commit()` can be used when it is known that
the ref store that the transaction is committed for is empty and
when there are no concurrent processes. This is used when cloning a
new repository.
Implementing this via two separate functions has a couple of downsides.
First, every reference backend needs to implement a separate callback
even in the case where they don't special-case the initial transaction.
Second, backends are basically forced to reimplement the whole logic for
how to commit the transaction like the "files" backend does, even though
backends may wish to only tweak certain behaviour of a "normal" commit.
Third, it is awkward that callers must never prepare the transaction as
this is somewhat different than how a transaction typically works.
Refactor the code such that we instead mark initial transactions via a
separate flag when starting the transaction. This addresses all of the
mentioned painpoints, where the most important part is that it will
allow backends to have way more leeway in how exactly they want to
handle the initial transaction.

Currently,
- Running "index-pack --promisor" outside a repo segfaults.
- It may be confusing to a user that running "index-pack --promisor"
within a repo may make changes to the repo's object DB, especially
since the packs indexed by the index-pack invocation may not even be
related to the repo.
As discussed in [1] and [2], teaching --promisor to forbid a packfile
name solves both these problems. This combination of arguments requires
a repo (since we are writing the resulting .pack and .idx to it) and it
is clear that the files are related to the repo.
Currently, Git uses "index-pack --promisor" only when fetching into
a repo, so it could be argued that we should teach "index-pack" a
new argument (say, "--fetching-mode") instead of tying --promisor to
a generic argument like the packfile name. However, this --promisor
feature could conceivably be used whenever we have a packfile that is
known to come from the promisor remote (whether obtained through Git's
fetch protocol or through other means) so not using a new argument seems
reasonable - one could envision a user-made script obtaining a packfile
and then running "index-pack --promisor --stdin", for example. In fact,
it might be possible to relax the restriction further (say, by also
allowing --promisor when indexing a packfile that is in the object DB),
but relaxing the restriction is backwards-compatible so we can revisit
that later.
One thing to watch out for is the possibility of a future Git feature
that indexes a pack in the context of a repo, but does not necessarily
write the resulting pack to it (and does not necessarily desire to
make any changes to the object DB). One such feature would be fetch
quarantine, which might need the repo context in order to detect
hash collisions, but would also need to ensure that the object DB
is undisturbed in case the fetch fails for whatever reason, even if
the reason occurs only after the indexing is complete. It may not be
obvious to the implementer of such a feature that "index-pack" could
sometimes write packs other than the indexed pack to the object DB,
but there are already other ways that "fetch" could write to the object
DB (in particular, packfile URIs and bundle URIs), so hopefully the
implementation of this future feature would already include a test that
the object DB be undisturbed.
This change requires the change to t5300 by 1f52cdfacb (index-pack:
document and test the --promisor option, 2022-03-09) to be undone.
(--promisor is already tested indirectly, so we don't need the explicit
test here any more.)

When running scheduled maintenance via `git maintenance start`, we
acquire a lockfile to ensure that no other scheduled maintenance task is
running in the repository concurrently. If so, we do provide an error to
the user hinting that another process seems to be running in this repo.
There are two important cases why such a lockfile may exist:
- An actual git-maintenance(1) process is still running in this
repository.
- An earlier process may have crashed or was interrupted part way
through and has left a stale lockfile behind.
In c95547a394 (builtin/gc: fix crash when running `git maintenance
start`, 2024-10-10), we have fixed an issue where git-maintenance(1)
would crash with the "start" subcommand, and the underlying bug causes
the second scenario to trigger quite often now.
Most users don't know how to get out of that situation again though.
Ideally, we'd be removing the stale lock for our users automatically.
But in the context of repository maintenance this is rather risky, as it
can easily run for hours or even days. So finding a clear point where we
know that the old process has exited is basically impossible.
We have the same issue in other subsystems, e.g. when locking refs. Our
lockfile interfaces thus provide the `unable_to_lock_message()` function
for exactly this purpose: it provides a nice hint to the user that
explains what is going on and how to get out of that situation again by
manually removing the file.
Adapt git-maintenance(1) to print a similar hint. While we could use the
above function, we can provide a bit more context as we know exactly
what kind of process would create the lockfile.

If someone replaces a commit with a modified version, then builds on
that commit, and then later decides to rewrite history in a format like
git fast-export --all | CMD_TO_TWEAK_THE_STREAM | git fast-import
and CMD_TO_TWEAK_THE_STREAM undoes the modifications that the
replacement did, then at the end you'd get a replace ref that points to
itself. For example:
$ git show-ref | grep replace
fb92ebc654641b310e7d0360d0a5a49316fd7264 refs/replace/fb92ebc654641b310e7d0360d0a5a49316fd7264
Git commands which pay attention to replace refs will die with an error
when a self-referencing replace ref is present:
$ git log
fatal: replace depth too high for object fb92ebc654641b310e7d0360d0a5a49316fd7264
Avoid such problems by deleting replace refs that will simply end up
pointing to themselves at the end of our writing. Unless users specify
--quiet, warn them when we delete such a replace ref.
Two notes about this patch:
* We are not ignoring the problematic update of the replace ref
(turning it into a no-op), we are replacing the update with a delete.
The logic here is that if the repository had a value for the replace
ref before fast-import was run, and the replace ref was explicitly
named in the fast-import stream, we don't want the replace ref to be
left with a pre-fast-import value.
* While loops with more than one element (e.g. refs/replace/A points
to B, and refs/replace/B points to A) are possible, they seem much
less plausible. It is pretty easy to create a sequence of
git-filter-repo commands that will trigger a self-referencing replace
ref, but I do not know how to trigger a scenario with a cycle length
greater than 1.

Historically, Git has allowed users to clone from an untrusted
repository, and we have documented that this is safe to do so:
`upload-pack` tries to avoid any dangerous configuration options or
hooks from the repository it's serving, making it safe to clone an
untrusted directory and run commands on the resulting clone.
However, this was broken by f4aa8c8bb1 ("fetch/clone: detect dubious
ownership of local repositories", 2024-04-10) in an attempt to make
things more secure. That change resulted in a variety of problems when
cloning locally and over SSH, but it did not change the stated security
boundary. Because the security boundary has not changed, it is safe to
adjust part of the code that patch introduced.
To do that and restore the previous functionality, adjust enter_repo to
take two flags instead of one.
The two bits are
- ENTER_REPO_STRICT: callers that require exact paths (as opposed
to allowing known suffixes like ".git", ".git/.git" to be
omitted) can set this bit. Corresponds to the "strict" parameter
that the flags word replaces.
- ENTER_REPO_ANY_OWNER_OK: callers that are willing to run without
ownership check can set this bit.
The former is --strict-paths option of "git daemon". The latter is
set only by upload-pack, which honors the claimed security boundary.
Note that local clones across ownership boundaries require --no-local so
that upload-pack is used. Document this fact in the manual page and
provide an example.
This patch was based on one written by Junio C Hamano.

When reusing objects from source pack(s), write_reused_pack_verbatim()
is responsible for reusing objects whole eword_t's at a time. It works
by taking the longest continuous run of objects from the beginning of
each source pack that the caller wants, and reuses the entirety of that
section from each pack.
This is based on the assumption that we don't have any gaps within the
region. This assumption relieves us from having to patch any
OFS_DELTAs, since we know that there aren't any gaps between any delta
and its base in that region.
To illustrate why this assumption is necessary, suppose we have some
pack P, which has objects X, Y, and Z. If the MIDX's copy of Y was
selected from a pack other than P, then the bit corresponding to object
Y will appear earlier in the bitmap than the bits corresponding to X and
Z.
If pack-objects already has or will use the copy of Y from the pack it
was selected from in the MIDX, then it is an error to reuse all objects
between X and Z in the source pack. Doing so will cause us to reuse Y
from a different pack than the one which represents Y in the MIDX,
causing us to either:
- include the object twice, assuming that the caller wants Y in the
pack, or
- include the object once, resulting in us packing more objects than
necessary.
This regression comes from ca0fd69e37 (pack-objects: prepare
`write_reused_pack_verbatim()` for multi-pack reuse, 2023-12-14), which
incorrectly assumed that there would be no gaps in reusable regions of
non-preferred packs.
Instead, we can only safely perform the whole-word reuse optimization on
the preferred pack, where we know with certainty that no gaps exist in
that region of the bitmap. We can still reuse objects from non-preferred
packs, but we have to inspect them individually in write_reused_pack()
to ensure that any gaps that may exist are accounted for.
This allows us to simplify the implementation of
write_reused_pack_verbatim() back to almost its pre-multi-pack reuse
form, since we can now assume that the beginning of the pack appears at
the beginning of the bitmap, meaning that we don't have to account for
any bits up to the first word boundary (like we had to special case in
ca0fd69e37).
The only significant changes from the pre-ca0fd69e37 implementation are:
- that we can no longer inspect words up to the end of
reuse_packfile_bitmap->word_alloc, since we only want to look at
words whose bits all correspond to objects in the given packfile, and
- that we return early when given a reuse_packfile which is not
preferred, making the call a noop.
In the future, it might be possible to restore this optimization if we
could guarantee that some reuse packs don't contain any gaps by
construction (similar to the "disjoint packs" idea in very early
versions of multi-pack reuse).

The refspec struct keeps two matched arrays: one for the refspec_item
structs and one for the original raw refspec strings. The main reason
for this is that there are other users of refspec_item that do not care
about the raw strings. But it does make managing the refspec struct
awkward, as we must keep the two arrays in sync. This has led to bugs in
the past (both leaks and double-frees).
Let's just store a copy of the raw refspec string directly in each
refspec_item struct. This simplifies the handling at a small cost:
1. Direct callers of refspec_item_init() will now get an extra copy of
the refspec string, even if they don't need it. This should be
negligible, as the struct is already allocating two strings for the
parsed src/dst values (and we tend to only do it sparingly anyway
for things like the TAG_REFSPEC literal).
2. Users of refspec_appendf() will now generate a temporary string,
copy it, and then free the result (versus handing off ownership of
the temporary string). We could get around this by having a "nodup"
variant of refspec_item_init(), but it doesn't seem worth the extra
complexity for something that is not remotely a hot code path.
Code which accesses refspec->raw now needs to look at refspec->item.raw.
Other callers which just use refspec_item directly can remain the same.
We'll free the allocated string in refspec_item_clear(), which they
should be calling anyway to free src/dst.
One subtle note: refspec_item_init() can return an error, in which case
we'll still have set its "raw" field. But that is also true of the "src"
and "dst" fields, so any caller which does not _clear() the failed item
is already potentially leaking. In practice most code just calls die()
on an error anyway, but you can see the exception in valid_fetch_refspec(),
which does correctly call _clear() even on error.

A refspec struct contains zero or more refspec_item structs, along with
matching "raw" strings. The items and raw strings are kept in separate
arrays, but those arrays will always have the same length (because we
write them only via refspec_append_nodup(), which grows both). This can
lead to bugs when manipulating the array, since the arrays and lengths
must be modified in lockstep. For example, the bug fixed in the previous
commit, which forgot to decrement raw_nr.
So let's get rid of "raw_nr" and have only "nr", making this kind of bug
impossible (and also making it clear that the two are always matched,
something that existing code already assumed but was not guaranteed by
the interface).
Even though we'd expect "alloc" and "raw_alloc" to likewise move in
lockstep, we still need to keep separate counts there if we want to
continue to use ALLOC_GROW() for both.
Conceptually this would all be simpler if refspec_item just held onto
its own raw string, and we had a single array. But there are callers
which use refspec_item outside of "struct refspec" (and so don't hold on
to a matching "raw" string at all), which we'd possibly need to adjust.
So let's not worry about refactoring that for now, and just get rid of
the redundant count variable. That is the first step on the road to
combining them anyway.

In filter_prefetch_refspecs(), we may remove one or more refspecs if
they point into refs/tags/. When we do, we remove the item from the
refspec->items array, shifting subsequent items down, and then decrement
the refspec->nr count.
We also remove the item from the refspec->raw array, but fail to
decrement refspec->raw_nr. This leaves us with a count that is too high,
and anybody looking at the "raw" array will erroneously see either:
1. The removed entry, if there were no subsequent items to shift down.
2. A duplicate of the final entry, as everything is shifted down but
there was nothing to overwrite the final item.
The obvious culprit to run into this is calling refspec_clear(), which
will try to free the removed entry (case 1) or double-free the final
entry (case 2). But even though the bug has existed since the function
was added in 2e03115d0c (fetch: add --prefetch option, 2021-04-16), we
did not trigger it in the test suite. The --prefetch option is normally
only used with configured refspecs, and we never bother to call
refspec_clear() on those (they are stored as part of a struct remote,
which is held in a global variable).
But you could trigger case 2 manually like:
git fetch --prefetch . refs/tags/foo refs/tags/bar
Ironically you couldn't trigger case 1, because the code accidentally
leaked the string in the raw array, and the two bugs (the leak and the
double-free) cancelled out. But when we fixed the leak in ea4780307c
(fetch: free "raw" string when shrinking refspec, 2024-09-24), it became
possible to trigger that, too, with a single item:
git fetch --prefetch . refs/tags/foo
We can fix both cases by just correctly decrementing "raw_nr" when we
shrink the array. Even though we don't expect people to use --prefetch
with command-line refspecs, we'll add a test to make sure it behaves
well (like the test just before it, we're just confirming that the
filtered prefetch succeeds at all).

Teach index-pack to, when processing the objects in a pack with
--promisor specified on the CLI, repack local objects (and the local
objects that they refer to, recursively) referenced by these objects
into promisor packs.
This prevents the situation in which, when fetching from a promisor
remote, we end up with promisor objects (newly fetched) referring
to non-promisor objects (locally created prior to the fetch). This
situation may arise if the client had previously pushed objects to the
remote, for example. One issue that arises in this situation is that,
if the non-promisor objects become inaccessible except through promisor
objects (for example, if the branch pointing to them has moved to
point to the promisor object that refers to them), then GC will garbage
collect them. There are other ways to solve this, but the simplest
seems to be to enforce the invariant that we don't have promisor objects
referring to non-promisor objects.
This repacking is done from index-pack to minimize the performance
impact. During a fetch, the only time most objects are fully inflated
in memory is when their object ID is computed, so we also scan the
objects (to see which objects they refer to) during this time.
Also to minimize the performance impact, an object is calculated to be
local if it's a loose object or present in a non-promisor pack. (If it's
also in a promisor pack or referred to by an object in a promisor pack,
it is technically already a promisor object. But a misidentification
of a promisor object as a non-promisor object is relatively benign
here - we will thus repack that promisor object into a promisor pack,
duplicating it in the object store, but there is no correctness issue,
just an issue of inefficiency.)
