cbb3f3c9b1 mingw: intercept isatty() to handle /dev/null as Git expects it
When Git's source code calls isatty(), it really asks whether the
respective file descriptor is connected to an interactive terminal.

Windows' _isatty() function, however, determines whether the file
descriptor is associated with a character device. And NUL, Windows'
equivalent of /dev/null, is a character device.

Which means that for years, Git mistakenly detected an associated
interactive terminal when being run through the test suite, which
almost always redirects stdin, stdout and stderr to /dev/null.

This bug only became obvious, and painfully so, when the new
bisect--helper entered the `pu` branch and made the automatic build & test
time out because t6030 was waiting for an answer.

43d1948b7b diff: handle --no-abbrev in no-index case
There are two different places where the --no-abbrev option is parsed,
and two different places where SHA-1s are abbreviated. We normally parse
--no-abbrev with setup_revisions(), but in the no-index case, "git diff"
calls diff_opt_parse() directly, and diff_opt_parse() didn't handle
--no-abbrev until now. (It did handle --abbrev, however.) We normally
abbreviate SHA-1s with find_unique_abbrev(), but commit 4f03666 ("diff:
handle sha1 abbreviations outside of repository, 2016-10-20) recently
introduced a special case when you run "git diff" outside of a
repository.

setup_revisions() does also call diff_opt_parse(), but not for --abbrev
or --no-abbrev, which it handles itself. setup_revisions() sets
rev_info->abbrev, and later copies that to diff_options->abbrev. It
handles --no-abbrev by setting abbrev to zero. (This change doesn't
touch that.)

Setting abbrev to zero was broken in the outside-of-a-repository special
case, which until now resulted in a truly zero-length SHA-1, rather than
taking zero to mean do not abbreviate. The only way to trigger this bug,
however, was by running "git diff --raw" without either the --abbrev or
--no-abbrev options, because 1) without --raw it doesn't respect abbrev
(which is bizarre, but has been that way forever), 2) we silently clamp
--abbrev=0 to MINIMUM_ABBREV, and 3) --no-abbrev wasn't handled until
now.

The outside-of-a-repository case is one of three no-index cases. The
other two are when one of the files you're comparing is outside of the
repository you're in, and the --no-index option.

853e10c197 difftool: fix dir-diff index creation when in a subdirectory
9ec26e7977 (difftool: fix argument handling in subdirs, 2016-07-18)
corrected how path arguments are handled in a subdirectory, but
it introduced a regression in how entries outside of the
subdirectory are handled by dir-diff.

When preparing the right-side of the diff we only include the
changed paths in the temporary area.

The left side of the diff is constructed from a temporary
index that is built from the same set of changed files, but it
was being constructed from within the subdirectory.  This is a
problem because the indexed paths are toplevel-relative, and
thus they were not getting added to the index.

Teach difftool to chdir to the toplevel of the repository before
preparing its temporary indexes.  This ensures that all of the
toplevel-relative paths are valid.

Add test cases to more thoroughly exercise this scenario.

9d4e28ead5 stash: prefer plumbing over git-diff
When creating a stash, we need to look at the diff between
the working tree and HEAD, and do so using the git-diff
porcelain.  Because git-diff enables porcelain config like
renames by default, this causes at least one problem. The
--name-only format will not mention the source side of a
rename, meaning we will fail to stash a deletion that is
part of a rename.

We could fix that case by passing --no-renames, but this is
a symptom of a larger problem. We should be using the
diff-index plumbing here, which does not have renames
enabled by default, and also does not respect any
potentially confusing config options.

3680f16f9d http-walker: complain about non-404 loose object errors
Since commit 17966c0a6 (http: avoid disconnecting on 404s
for loose objects, 2016-07-11), we turn off curl's
FAILONERROR option and instead manually deal with failing
HTTP codes.

However, the logic to do so only recognizes HTTP 404 as a
failure. This is probably the most common result, but if we
were to get another code, the curl result remains CURLE_OK,
and we treat it as success. We still end up detecting the
failure when we try to zlib-inflate the object (which will
fail), but instead of reporting the HTTP error, we just
claim that the object is corrupt.

Instead, let's catch anything in the 300's or above as an
error (300's are redirects which are not an error at the
HTTP level, but are an indication that we've explicitly
disabled redirects, so we should treat them as such; we
certainly don't have the resulting object content).

Note that we also fill in req->errorstr, which we didn't do
before. Without FAILONERROR, curl will not have filled this
in, and it will remain a blank string. This never mattered
for the 404 case, because in the logic below we hit the
"missing_target()" branch and print nothing. But for other
errors, we'd want to say _something_, if only to fill in the
blank slot in the error message.

cb4d2d35c4 http: treat http-alternates like redirects
The previous commit made HTTP redirects more obvious and
tightened up the default behavior. However, there's another
way for a server to ask a git client to fetch arbitrary
content: by having an http-alternates file (or a regular
alternates file, which is used as a backup).

Similar to the HTTP redirect case, a malicious server can
claim to have refs pointing at object X, return a 404 when
the client asks for X, but point to some other URL via
http-alternates, which the client will transparently fetch.
The end result is that it looks from the user's perspective
like the objects came from the malicious server, as the
other URL is not mentioned at all.

Worse, because we feed the new URL to curl ourselves, the
usual protocol restrictions do not kick in (neither curl's
default of disallowing file://, nor the protocol
whitelisting in f4113cac0 (http: limit redirection to
protocol-whitelist, 2015-09-22).

Let's apply the same rules here as we do for HTTP redirects.
Namely:

  - unless http.followRedirects is set to "always", we will
    not follow remote redirects from http-alternates (or
    alternates) at all

  - set CURLOPT_PROTOCOLS alongside CURLOPT_REDIR_PROTOCOLS
    restrict ourselves to a known-safe set and respect any
    user-provided whitelist.

  - mention alternate object stores on stderr so that the
    user is aware another source of objects may be involved

The first item may prove to be too restrictive. The most
common use of alternates is to point to another path on the
same server. While it's possible for a single-server
redirect to be an attack, it takes a fairly obscure setup
(victim and evil repository on the same host, host speaks
dumb http, and evil repository has access to edit its own
http-alternates file).

So we could make the checks more specific, and only cover
cross-server redirects. But that means parsing the URLs
ourselves, rather than letting curl handle them. This patch
goes for the simpler approach. Given that they are only used
with dumb http, http-alternates are probably pretty rare.
And there's an escape hatch: the user can allow redirects on
a specific server by setting http.<url>.followRedirects to
"always".

50d3413740 http: make redirects more obvious
We instruct curl to always follow HTTP redirects. This is
convenient, but it creates opportunities for malicious
servers to create confusing situations. For instance,
imagine Alice is a git user with access to a private
repository on Bob's server. Mallory runs her own server and
wants to access objects from Bob's repository.

Mallory may try a few tricks that involve asking Alice to
clone from her, build on top, and then push the result:

  1. Mallory may simply redirect all fetch requests to Bob's
     server. Git will transparently follow those redirects
     and fetch Bob's history, which Alice may believe she
     got from Mallory. The subsequent push seems like it is
     just feeding Mallory back her own objects, but is
     actually leaking Bob's objects. There is nothing in
     git's output to indicate that Bob's repository was
     involved at all.

     The downside (for Mallory) of this attack is that Alice
     will have received Bob's entire repository, and is
     likely to notice that when building on top of it.

  2. If Mallory happens to know the sha1 of some object X in
     Bob's repository, she can instead build her own history
     that references that object. She then runs a dumb http
     server, and Alice's client will fetch each object
     individually. When it asks for X, Mallory redirects her
     to Bob's server. The end result is that Alice obtains
     objects from Bob, but they may be buried deep in
     history. Alice is less likely to notice.

Both of these attacks are fairly hard to pull off. There's a
social component in getting Mallory to convince Alice to
work with her. Alice may be prompted for credentials in
accessing Bob's repository (but not always, if she is using
a credential helper that caches). Attack (1) requires a
certain amount of obliviousness on Alice's part while making
a new commit. Attack (2) requires that Mallory knows a sha1
in Bob's repository, that Bob's server supports dumb http,
and that the object in question is loose on Bob's server.

But we can probably make things a bit more obvious without
any loss of functionality. This patch does two things to
that end.

First, when we encounter a whole-repo redirect during the
initial ref discovery, we now inform the user on stderr,
making attack (1) much more obvious.

Second, the decision to follow redirects is now
configurable. The truly paranoid can set the new
http.followRedirects to false to avoid any redirection
entirely. But for a more practical default, we will disallow
redirects only after the initial ref discovery. This is
enough to thwart attacks similar to (2), while still
allowing the common use of redirects at the repository
level. Since c93c92f30 (http: update base URLs when we see
redirects, 2013-09-28) we re-root all further requests from
the redirect destination, which should generally mean that
no further redirection is necessary.

As an escape hatch, in case there really is a server that
needs to redirect individual requests, the user can set
http.followRedirects to "true" (and this can be done on a
per-server basis via http.*.followRedirects config).

6628eb41db http: always update the base URL for redirects
If a malicious server redirects the initial ref
advertisement, it may be able to leak sha1s from other,
unrelated servers that the client has access to. For
example, imagine that Alice is a git user, she has access to
a private repository on a server hosted by Bob, and Mallory
runs a malicious server and wants to find out about Bob's
private repository.

Mallory asks Alice to clone an unrelated repository from her
over HTTP. When Alice's client contacts Mallory's server for
the initial ref advertisement, the server issues an HTTP
redirect for Bob's server. Alice contacts Bob's server and
gets the ref advertisement for the private repository. If
there is anything to fetch, she then follows up by asking
the server for one or more sha1 objects. But who is the
server?

If it is still Mallory's server, then Alice will leak the
existence of those sha1s to her.

Since commit c93c92f30 (http: update base URLs when we see
redirects, 2013-09-28), the client usually rewrites the base
URL such that all further requests will go to Bob's server.
But this is done by textually matching the URL. If we were
originally looking for "http://mallory/repo.git/info/refs",
and we got pointed at "http://bob/other.git/info/refs", then
we know that the right root is "http://bob/other.git".

If the redirect appears to change more than just the root,
we punt and continue to use the original server. E.g.,
imagine the redirect adds a URL component that Bob's server
will ignore, like "http://bob/other.git/info/refs?dummy=1".

We can solve this by aborting in this case rather than
silently continuing to use Mallory's server. In addition to
protecting from sha1 leakage, it's arguably safer and more
sane to refuse a confusing redirect like that in general.
For example, part of the motivation in c93c92f30 is
avoiding accidentally sending credentials over clear http,
just to get a response that says "try again over https". So
even in a non-malicious case, we'd prefer to err on the side
of caution.

The downside is that it's possible this will break a
legitimate but complicated server-side redirection scheme.
The setup given in the newly added test does work, but it's
convoluted enough that we don't need to care about it. A
more plausible case would be a server which redirects a
request for "info/refs?service=git-upload-pack" to just
"info/refs" (because it does not do smart HTTP, and for some
reason really dislikes query parameters).  Right now we
would transparently downgrade to dumb-http, but with this
patch, we'd complain (and the user would have to set
GIT_SMART_HTTP=0 to fetch).

986d7f4d37 http: simplify update_url_from_redirect
This function looks for a common tail between what we asked
for and where we were redirected to, but it open-codes the
comparison. We can avoid some confusing subtractions by
using strip_suffix_mem().

a7659747c2 GIT-VERSION-GEN: do not force abbreviation length used by 'describe'
The default version name for a Git binary is computed by running
"git describe" on the commit the binary is made out of, basing on a
tag whose name matches "v[0-9]*", e.g. v2.11.0-rc2-2-g7f1dc9.

In the very early days, with 9b88fcef7d ("Makefile: use git-describe
to mark the git version.", 2005-12-27), we used "--abbrev=4" to get
absolute minimum number of abbreviated commit object name.  This was
later changed to match the default minimum of 7 with bf505158d0
("Git 1.7.10.1", 2012-05-01).

These days, the "default minimum" scales automatically depending on
the size of the repository, and there is no point in specifying a
particular abbreviation length; all we wanted since Git 1.7.10.1
days was to get "something reasonable we would use by default".

Just drop "--abbrev=<number>" from the invocation of "git describe"
and let the command pick what it thinks is appropriate, taking the
end user's configuration and the repository contents into account.

3bb16a8bf2 tag, branch, for-each-ref: add --ignore-case for sorting and filtering
This options makes sorting ignore case, which is great when you have
branches named bug-12-do-something, Bug-12-do-some-more and
BUG-12-do-what and want to group them together. Sorting externally may
not be an option because we lose coloring and column layout from
git-branch and git-tag.

The same could be said for filtering, but it's probably less important
because you can always go with the ugly pattern [bB][uU][gG]-* if you're
desperate.

You can't have case-sensitive filtering and case-insensitive sorting (or
the other way around) with this though. For branch and tag, that should
be no problem. for-each-ref, as a plumbing, might want finer control.
But we can always add --{filter,sort}-ignore-case when there is a need
for it.

d5eb3cf5e7 git-p4: fix empty file processing for large file system backend GitLFS
If git-p4 tried to store an empty file in GitLFS then it crashed while
parsing the pointer file:

  oid = re.search(r'^oid \w+:(\w+)', pointerFile, re.MULTILINE).group(1)
  AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'group'

This happens because GitLFS does not create a pointer file for an empty
file. Teach git-p4 this behavior to fix the problem and add a test case.

89a6ecc55b git-p4: add config to retry p4 commands; retry 3 times by default
P4 commands can fail due to random network issues. P4 users can counter
these issues by using a retry flag supported by all p4 commands [1].

Add an integer Git config value `git-p4.retries` to define the number of
retries for all p4 invocations. If the config is not defined then set
the default retry count to 3.
