33f3c683ec setup: update error message to be more meaningful
The error message shown when a flag is found when expecting a
filename wasn't clear as it didn't communicate what was wrong
using the 'suitable' words in *all* cases.

        $ git ls-files
        README.md
        test-file

Correct case,

        $ git rev-parse README.md --flags
        README.md
        --flags
        fatal: bad flag '--flags' used after filename

Incorrect case,

        $ git grep "some random regex" -n
        fatal: bad flag '-n' used after filename

The above case is incorrect as "some random regex" isn't a filename
in this case.

Change the error message to be general and communicative. This results
in the following output,

        $ git rev-parse README.md --flags
        README.md
        --flags
        fatal: option '--flags' must come before non-option arguments

        $ git grep "some random regex" -n
        fatal: option '-n' must come before non-option arguments

1fb2b636c6 set_git_dir: handle feeding gitdir to itself
Ideally we'd free the existing gitdir field before assigning
the new one, to avoid a memory leak. But we can't do so
safely because some callers do the equivalent of:

  set_git_dir(get_git_dir());

We can detect that case as a noop, but there are even more
complicated cases like:

  set_git_dir(remove_leading_path(worktree, get_git_dir());

where we really do need to do some work, but the original
string must remain valid.

Rather than put the burden on callers to make a copy of the
string (only to free it later, since we'll make a copy of it
ourselves), let's solve the problem inside set_git_dir(). We
can make a copy of the pointer for the old gitdir, and then
avoid freeing it until after we've made our new copy.

73f192c991 setup: don't perform lazy initialization of repository state
Under some circumstances (bogus GIT_DIR value or the discovered gitdir
is '.git') 'setup_git_directory()' won't initialize key repository
state.  This leads to inconsistent state after running the setup code.
To account for this inconsistent state, lazy initialization is done once
a caller asks for the repository's gitdir or some other piece of
repository state.  This is confusing and can be error prone.

Instead let's tighten the expected outcome of 'setup_git_directory()'
and ensure that it initializes repository state in all cases that would
have been handled by lazy initialization.

This also lets us drop the requirement to have 'have_git_dir()' check if
the environment variable GIT_DIR was set as that will be handled by the
end of the setup code.

32e0da583f Merge branch 'jk/pathspec-magic-disambiguation'
The convention for a command line is to follow "git cmdname
--options" with revisions followed by an optional "--"
disambiguator and then finally pathspecs.  When "--" is not there,
we make sure early ones are all interpretable as revs (and do not
look like paths) and later ones are the other way around.  A
pathspec with "magic" (e.g. ":/p/a/t/h" that matches p/a/t/h from
the top-level of the working tree, no matter what subdirectory you
are working from) are conservatively judged as "not a path", which
required disambiguation more often.  The command line parser
learned to say "it's a pathspec" a bit more often when the syntax
looks like so.

d3fb71b3cb setup: teach discover_git_directory to respect the commondir
Currently 'discover_git_directory' only looks at the gitdir to determine
if a git directory was discovered.  This causes a problem in the event
that the gitdir which was discovered was in fact a per-worktree git
directory and not the common git directory.  This is because the
repository config, which is checked to verify the repository's format,
is stored in the commondir and not in the per-worktree gitdir.  Correct
this behavior by checking the config stored in the commondir.

It will also be of use for callers to have access to the commondir, so
lets also return that upon successfully discovering a git directory.

69743f9b4f discover_git_directory(): avoid setting invalid git_dir
When discovering a .git/ directory, we take pains to ensure that its
repository format version matches Git's expectations, and we return NULL
otherwise.

However, we still appended the invalid path to the strbuf passed as
argument.

Let's just reset the strbuf to the state before we appended the .git/
directory that was eventually rejected.

There is another early return path in that function, when
setup_git_directory_gently_1() returns GIT_DIR_NONE or an error. In that
case, the gitdir parameter has not been touched, therefore there is no
need for an equivalent change in that code path.

93dd544f54 Merge branch 'jc/noent-notdir'
Our code often opens a path to an optional file, to work on its
contents when we can successfully open it.  We can ignore a failure
to open if such an optional file does not exist, but we do want to
report a failure in opening for other reasons (e.g. we got an I/O
error, or the file is there, but we lack the permission to open).

The exact errors we need to ignore are ENOENT (obviously) and
ENOTDIR (less obvious).  Instead of repeating comparison of errno
with these two constants, introduce a helper function to do so.

c99eddd835 verify_filename(): treat ":(magic)" as a pathspec
For commands that take revisions and pathspecs, magic
pathspecs like ":(exclude)foo" require the user to specify
a disambiguating "--", since they do not match a file in the
filesystem, like:

  git grep foo -- :(exclude)bar

This makes them more annoying to use than they need to be.
We loosened the rules for wildcards in 28fcc0b71 (pathspec:
avoid the need of "--" when wildcard is used, 2015-05-02).
Let's do the same for pathspecs with long-form magic.

We already handle the short-forms ":/" and ":^" specially in
check_filename(), so we don't need to handle them here. And
in fact, we could do the same with long-form magic, parsing
out the actual filename and making sure it exists. But there
are a few reasons not to do it that way:

  - the parsing gets much more complicated, and we'd want to
    hand it off to the pathspec code. But that code isn't
    ready to do this kind of speculative parsing (it's happy
    to die() when it sees a syntactically invalid pathspec).

  - not all pathspec magic maps to a filesystem path. E.g.,
    :(attr) should be treated as a pathspec regardless of
    what is in the filesystem

  - we can be a bit looser with ":(" than with the
    short-form ":/", because it is much less likely to have
    a false positive. Whereas ":/" also means "search for a
    commit with this regex".

Note that because the change is in verify_filename() and not
in its helper check_filename(), this doesn't affect the
verify_non_filename() case. I.e., if an item that matches
our new rule doesn't resolve as an object, we may fallback
to treating it as a pathspec (rather than complaining it
doesn't exist). But if it does resolve (e.g., as a file in
the index that starts with an open-paren), we won't then
complain that it's also a valid pathspec. This matches the
wildcard-exception behavior.

And of course in either case, one can always insert the "--"
to get more precise results.

a08cbcda17 check_filename(): refactor ":/" handling
We handle arguments with the ":/" pathspec magic specially,
making sure the name exists at the top-level.  We'll want to
handle more pathspec magic in future patches, so let's do a
little rearranging to make that easier.

Instead of relying on an if/else cascade to avoid the
prefix_filename() call, we'll just set prefix to NULL.
Likewise, we'll get rid of the "name" variable entirely, and
just push the "arg" pointer forward to skip past the magic.
That means by the time we get to the prefix-handling, we're
set up appropriately whether we saw ":/" or not.

Note that this does impact the final error message we
produce when stat() fails, as it shows "arg" (which we'll
have modified to skip magic and include the prefix). This is
a good thing; the original message would say something like
"failed to stat ':/foo'", which is confusing (we tried to
stat "foo").

e4da43b1f0 prefix_filename: return newly allocated string
The prefix_filename() function returns a pointer to static
storage, which makes it easy to use dangerously. We already
fixed one buggy caller in hash-object recently, and the
calls in apply.c are suspicious (I didn't dig in enough to
confirm that there is a bug, but we call the function once
in apply_all_patches() and then again indirectly from
parse_chunk()).

Let's make it harder to get wrong by allocating the return
value. For simplicity, we'll do this even when the prefix is
empty (and we could just return the original file pointer).
That will cause us to allocate sometimes when we wouldn't
otherwise need to, but this function isn't called in
performance critical code-paths (and it already _might_
allocate on any given call, so a caller that cares about
performance is questionable anyway).

The downside is that the callers need to remember to free()
the result to avoid leaking. Most of them already used
xstrdup() on the result, so we know they are OK. The
remainder have been converted to use free() as appropriate.

I considered retaining a prefix_filename_unsafe() for cases
where we know the static lifetime is OK (and handling the
cleanup is awkward). This is only a handful of cases,
though, and it's not worth the mental energy in worrying
about whether the "unsafe" variant is OK to use in any
situation.

callers specifying it (and in some cases handling a NULL

In a handful of cases we had the length already without
calling strlen, so this is technically slower. But it's not
likely to matter (after all, if the prefix is non-empty
we'll allocate and copy it into a buffer anyway).

01017dce54 setup_git_directory_gently_1(): avoid die()ing
This function now has a new caller in addition to setup_git_directory():
the newly introduced discover_git_directory(). That function wants to
discover the current .git/ directory, and in case of a corrupted one
simply pretend that there is none to be found.

Example: if a stale .git file exists in the parent directory, and the
user calls `git -p init`, we want Git to simply *not* read any
repository config for the pager (instead of aborting with a message that
the .git file is corrupt).

Let's actually pretend that there was no GIT_DIR to be found in that case
when being called from discover_git_directory(), but keep the previous
behavior (i.e. to die()) for the setup_git_directory() case.

ce9b8aab5d setup_git_directory_1(): avoid changing global state
For historical reasons, Git searches for the .git/ directory (or the
.git file) by changing the working directory successively to the parent
directory of the current directory, until either anything was found or
until a ceiling or a mount point is hit.

Further global state may be changed in case a .git/ directory was found.

We do have a use case, though, where we would like to find the .git/
directory without having any global state touched, though: when we read
the early config e.g. for the pager or for alias expansion.

Let's just move all of code that changes any global state out of the
function `setup_git_directory_gently_1()` into
`setup_git_directory_gently()`.

In subsequent patches, we will use the _1() function in a new
`discover_git_directory()` function that we will then use for the early
config code.

Note: the new loop is a *little* tricky, as we have to handle the root
directory specially: we cannot simply strip away the last component
including the slash, as the root directory only has that slash. To remedy
that, we introduce the `min_offset` variable that holds the minimal length
of an absolute path, and using that to special-case the root directory,
including an early exit before trying to find the parent of the root
directory.

df380d58ec setup: prepare setup_discovered_git_dir() for the root directory
Currently, the offset parameter (indicating what part of the cwd
parameter corresponds to the current directory after discovering the
.git/ directory) is set to 0 when we are running in the root directory.

However, in the next patches we will avoid changing the current working
directory while searching for the .git/ directory, meaning that the
offset corresponding to the root directory will have to be 1 to reflect
that this directory is characterized by the path "/" (and not "").

So let's make sure that setup_discovered_git_directory() only tries to
append the trailing slash to non-root directories.

Note: the setup_bare_git_directory() does not need a corresponding
change, as it does not want to return a prefix.

seeing an issue, and instead later triggering segfault.

ce83eadd9a real_pathdup(): fix callsites that wanted it to die on error
In 4ac9006f83 (real_path: have callers use real_pathdup and
strbuf_realpath, 2016-12-12), we changed the xstrdup(real_path())
pattern to use real_pathdup() directly.

The problem with this change is that real_path() calls
strbuf_realpath() with die_on_error = 1 while real_pathdup() calls
it with die_on_error = 0. Meaning that in cases where real_path()
causes Git to die() with an error message, real_pathdup() is silent
and returns NULL instead.

The callers, however, are ill-prepared for that change, as they expect
the return value to be non-NULL (and otherwise the function died
with an appropriate error message).

Fix this by extending real_pathdup()'s signature to accept the
die_on_error flag and simply pass it through to strbuf_realpath(),
and then adjust all callers after a careful audit whether they would
handle NULLs well.

6c1e654437 setup_git_directory(): use is_dir_sep() helper
It is okay in practice to test for forward slashes in the output of
getcwd(), because we go out of our way to convert backslashes to forward
slashes in getcwd()'s output on Windows.

Still, the correct way to test for a dir separator is by using the
helper function we introduced for that very purpose. It also serves as a
good documentation what the code tries to do (not "how").

33ad9ddd0b strbuf: add strbuf_add_real_path()
Add a function for appending the canonized absolute pathname of a given
path to a strbuf.  It keeps the existing contents intact, as expected of
a function of the strbuf_add() family, while avoiding copying the result
if the given strbuf is empty.  It's more consistent with the rest of the
strbuf API than strbuf_realpath(), which it's wrapping.

Also add a semantic patch demonstrating its intended usage and apply it
to the current tree.  Using strbuf_add_real_path() instead of calling
strbuf_addstr() and real_path() avoids an extra copy to a static buffer.

the rest to die as usual. Separate the block that takes care of dying

This follows a93bedada (setup: add gentle version of read_gitfile,

24041d6be5 setup.c: do not feed NULL to "%.*s" even with precision 0
A recent update 75faa45a (replace trivial malloc + sprintf / strcpy
calls with xstrfmt, 2015-09-24) rewrote

	prepare an empty buffer
	if (len)
        	append the first len bytes of "prefix" to the buffer
	append "path" to the buffer

that computed "path", optionally prefixed by "prefix", into

	xstrfmt("%.*s%s", len, prefix, path);

However, passing a NULL pointer to the printf(3) family of functions
to format it with %s conversion, even with the precision set to 0,
i.e.

	xstrfmt("%.*s", 0, NULL)

yields undefined results, at least on some platforms.

Avoid this problem by substituting prefix with "" when len==0, as
prefix can legally be NULL in that case.  This would mimick the
intent of the original code better.

652f18ee87 setup: unify repository version callbacks
Once upon a time, check_repository_format_gently would parse
the config with a single callback, and that callback would
set up a bunch of global variables. But now that we have
separate workdirs, we have to be more careful. Commit
31e26eb (setup.c: support multi-checkout repo setup,
2014-11-30) introduced a reduced callback which omits some
values like core.worktree. In the "main" callback we call
the reduced one, and then add back in the missing variables.

Now that we have split the config-parsing from the munging
of the global variables, we can do it all with a single
callback, and keep all of the "are we in a separate workdir"
logic together.

2cc7c2c737 setup: refactor repo format reading and verification
When we want to know if we're in a git repository of
reasonable vintage, we can call check_repository_format_gently(),
which does three things:

  1. Reads the config from the .git/config file.

  2. Verifies that the version info we read is sane.

  3. Writes some global variables based on this.

There are a few things we could improve here.

One is that steps 1 and 3 happen together. So if the
verification in step 2 fails, we still clobber the global
variables. This is especially bad if we go on to try another
repository directory; we may end up with a state of mixed
config variables.

The second is there's no way to ask about the repository
version for anything besides the main repository we're in.
git-init wants to do this, and it's possible that we would
want to start doing so for submodules (e.g., to find out
which ref backend they're using).

We can improve both by splitting the first two steps into
separate functions. Now check_repository_format_gently()
calls out to steps 1 and 2, and does 3 only if step 2
succeeds.

Note that the public interface for read_repository_format()
and what check_repository_format_gently() needs from it are
not quite the same, leading us to have an extra
read_repository_format_1() helper. The extra needs from
check_repository_format_gently() will go away in a future
patch, and we can simplify this then to just the public
interface.
