xdiff: reject files larger than ~1GB The xdiff code is not prepared to handle extremely large files. It uses "int" in many places, which can overflow if we have a very large number of lines or even bytes in our input files. This can cause us to produce incorrect diffs, with no indication that the output is wrong. Or worse, we may even underallocate a buffer whose size is the result of an overflowing addition. We're much better off to tell the user that we cannot diff or merge such a large file. This patch covers both cases, but in slightly different ways: 1. For merging, we notice the large file and cleanly fall back to a binary merge (which is effectively "we cannot merge this"). 2. For diffing, we make the binary/text distinction much earlier, and in many different places. For this case, we'll use the xdi_diff as our choke point, and reject any diff there before it hits the xdiff code. This means in most cases we'll die() immediately after. That's not ideal, but in practice we shouldn't generally hit this code path unless the user is trying to do something tricky. We already consider files larger than core.bigfilethreshold to be binary, so this code would only kick in when that is circumvented (either by bumping that value, or by using a .gitattribute to mark a file as diffable). In other words, we can avoid being "nice" here, because there is already nice code that tries to do the right thing. We are adding the suspenders to the nice code's belt, so notice when it has been worked around (both to protect the user from malicious inputs, and because it is better to die() than generate bogus output). The maximum size was chosen after experimenting with feeding large files to the xdiff code. It's just under a gigabyte, which leaves room for two obvious cases: - a diff3 merge conflict result on files of maximum size X could be 3*X plus the size of the markers, which would still be only about 3G, which fits in a 32-bit int. - some of the diff code allocates arrays of one int per record. Even if each file consists only of blank lines, then a file smaller than 1G will have fewer than 1G records, and therefore the int array will fit in 4G. Since the limit is arbitrary anyway, I chose to go under a gigabyte, to leave a safety margin (e.g., we would not want to overflow by allocating "(records + 1) * sizeof(int)" or similar.
