When we add a new alternate to the list, we try to normalize
out any redundant "..", etc. However, we do not look at the
return value of normalize_path_copy(), and will happily
continue with a path that could not be normalized. Worse,
the normalizing process is done in-place, so we are left
with whatever half-finished working state the normalizing
function was in.
Fortunately, this cannot cause us to read past the end of
our buffer, as that working state will always leave the
NUL from the original path in place. And we do tend to
notice problems when we check is_directory() on the path.
But you can see the nonsense that we feed to is_directory
with an entry like:
this/../../is/../../way/../../too/../../deep/../../to/../../resolve
in your objects/info/alternates, which yields:
error: object directory
/to/e/deep/too/way//ects/this/../../is/../../way/../../too/../../deep/../../to/../../resolve
does not exist; check .git/objects/info/alternates.
We can easily fix this just by checking the return value.
But that makes it hard to generate a good error message,
since we're normalizing in-place and our input value has
been overwritten by cruft.
Instead, let's provide a strbuf helper that does an in-place
normalize, but restores the original contents on error. This
uses a second buffer under the hood, which is slightly less
efficient, but this is not a performance-critical code path.
The strbuf helper can also properly set the "len" parameter
of the strbuf before returning. Just doing:
normalize_path_copy(buf.buf, buf.buf);
will shorten the string, but leave buf.len at the original
length. That may be confusing to later code which uses the
strbuf.

The preliminary clean-up for jc/peace-with-crlf topic.
* jc/strbuf-getline:
strbuf: give strbuf_getline() to the "most text friendly" variant
checkout-index: there are only two possible line terminations
update-index: there are only two possible line terminations
check-ignore: there are only two possible line terminations

Now there is no direct caller to strbuf_getline(), we can demote it
to file-scope static that is private to strbuf.c and rename it to
strbuf_getdelim(). Rename strbuf_getline_crlf(), which is designed
to be the most "text friendly" variant, and allow it to take over
this simplest name, strbuf_getline(), so we can add more uses of it
without having to type _crlf over and over again in the coming
steps.

The strbuf_getline() interface allows a byte other than LF or NUL as
the line terminator, but this is only because I wrote these
codepaths anticipating that there might be a value other than NUL
and LF that could be useful when I introduced line_termination long
time ago. No useful caller that uses other value has emerged.
By now, it is clear that the interface is overly broad without a
good reason. Many codepaths have hardcoded preference to read
either LF terminated or NUL terminated records from their input, and
then call strbuf_getline() with LF or NUL as the third parameter.
This step introduces two thin wrappers around strbuf_getline(),
namely, strbuf_getline_lf() and strbuf_getline_nul(), and
mechanically rewrites these call sites to call either one of
them. The changes contained in this patch are:
* introduction of these two functions in strbuf.[ch]
* mechanical conversion of all callers to strbuf_getline() with
either '\n' or '\0' as the third parameter to instead call the
respective thin wrapper.
After this step, output from "git grep 'strbuf_getline('" would
become a lot smaller. An interim goal of this series is to make
this an empty set, so that we can have strbuf_getline_crlf() take
over the shorter name strbuf_getline().

Often we read "text" files that are supplied by the end user
(e.g. commit log message that was edited with $GIT_EDITOR upon 'git
commit -e'), and in some environments lines in a text file are
terminated with CRLF. Existing strbuf_getline() knows to read a
single line and then strip the terminating byte from the result, but
it is handy to have a version that is more tailored for a "text"
input that takes both '\n' and '\r\n' as line terminator (aka
<newline> in POSIX lingo) and returns the body of the line after
stripping <newline>.
Recently reimplemented "git am" uses such a function implemented
privately; move it to strbuf.[ch] and make it available for others.
Note that we do not blindly replace calls to strbuf_getline() that
uses LF as the line terminator with calls to strbuf_getline_crlf()
and this is very much deliberate. Some callers may want to treat an
incoming line that ends with CR (and terminated with LF) to have a
payload that includes the final CR, and such a blind replacement
will result in misconversion when done without code audit.

stripspace: use parse-options for command-line parsing

This function is also used in other builtins than stripspace, so it
makes sense to have it in a more generic place. Since it operates
on an strbuf and the function is declared in strbuf.h, move it to
strbuf.c and add the corresponding prefix to its name, just like
other API functions in the strbuf_* family.

The sha1_to_hex and find_unique_abbrev functions always
write into reusable static buffers. There are a few problems
with this:
- future calls overwrite our result. This is especially
annoying with find_unique_abbrev, which does not have a
ring of buffers, so you cannot even printf() a result
that has two abbreviated sha1s.
- if you want to put the result into another buffer, we
often strcpy, which looks suspicious when auditing for
overflows.
This patch introduces sha1_to_hex_r and find_unique_abbrev_r,
which write into a user-provided buffer. Of course this is
just punting on the overflow-auditing, as the buffer
obviously needs to be GIT_SHA1_HEXSZ + 1 bytes. But it is
much easier to audit, since that is a well-known size.
We retain the non-reentrant forms, which just become thin
wrappers around the reentrant ones. This patch also adds a
strbuf variant of find_unique_abbrev, which will be handy in

We mark strbuf_addch as inline, because we expect it may be
called from a tight loop. However, the first thing it does
is call the non-inline strbuf_grow(), which can handle
arbitrary-sized growth. Since we know that we only need a
single character, we can use the inline strbuf_avail() to
quickly check whether we need to grow at all.
Our check is redundant when we do call strbuf_grow(), but
that's OK. The common case is that we avoid calling it at
all, and we have made that case faster.
On a silly pathological case:
perl -le '
print "[core]";
print "key$_ = value$_" for (1..1000000)
' >input
git config -f input core.key1

Let's drop the boilerplate completely, and mention the

for a hypothetical system which pulls the documentation for
each function out of the comment immediately preceding it.
But such a system does not yet exist, and anyway, the end
result of extracting the boilerplate comments would not lead

Some of strbuf is documented as comments above functions,
and some is separate in Documentation/technical/api-strbuf.txt.
This makes it annoying to find the appropriate documentation.
We'd rather have it all in one place, which means all in the
text document, or all in the header.
Let's choose the header as that place. Even though the
formatting is not quite as pretty, this keeps the
documentation close to the related code. The hope is that
this makes it easier to find what you want (human-readable
comments are right next to the C declarations), and easier
for writers to keep the documentation up to date.
This is more or less a straight import of the text from
api-strbuf.txt into C comments, complete with asciidoc
formatting. The exceptions are:
1. All comments created in this way are started with "/**"
to indicate they are part of the API documentation. This
may help later with extracting the text to pretty-print
it.
2. Function descriptions do not repeat the function name,
as it is available in the context directly below. So:
`strbuf_add`::
Add data of given length to the buffer.
from api-strbuf.txt becomes:
/**
* Add data of given length to the buffer.
*/
void strbuf_add(struct strbuf *sb, const void *, size_t);
As a result, any block-continuation required in asciidoc
for that list item was dropped in favor of straight
blank-line paragraph (since it is not necessary when we
are not in a list item).
3. There is minor re-wording to integrate existing comments
and api-strbuf text. In each case, I took whichever
version was more descriptive, and eliminated any
redundancies. In one case, for strbuf_addstr, the api
documentation gave its inline definition; I eliminated
this as redundant with the actual definition, which can
be seen directly below the comment.
4. The functions in the header file are re-ordered to match
the ordering of the API documentation, under the
assumption that more thought went into the grouping
there.
