54d160ec0d config: close config file handle in case of error
When updating an existing configuration file, we did not always
close the filehandle that is reading from the current configuration
file when we encountered an error (e.g. when unsetting a variable
that does not exist).

dff6f280df git_open_noatime: return with errno=0 on success
In read_sha1_file_extended we die if read_object fails with a fatal
error. We detect a fatal error if errno is non-zero and is not
ENOENT. If the object could not be read because it does not exist,
this is not considered a fatal error and we want to return NULL.

Somewhere down the line, read_object calls git_open_noatime to open
a pack index file, for example. We first try open with O_NOATIME.
If O_NOATIME fails with EPERM, we retry without O_NOATIME. When the
second open succeeds, errno is however still set to EPERM from the
first attempt. When we finally determine that the object does not
exist, read_object returns NULL and read_sha1_file_extended dies
with a fatal error:

    fatal: failed to read object <sha1>: Operation not permitted

Fix this by resetting errno to zero before we call open again.

b5e823594c am: let --signoff override --no-signoff
After resolving a conflicting patch, a user may wish to sign off the
patch to declare that the patch has been modified. As such, the user
will expect that running "git am --signoff --continue" will append the
signoff to the commit message.

However, the --signoff option is only taken into account during the
mail-parsing stage. If the --signoff option is set, then the signoff
will be appended to the commit message. Since the mail-parsing stage
comes before the patch application stage, the --signoff option, if
provided on the command-line when resuming, will have no effect at all.

We cannot move the append_signoff() call to the patch application stage
as the applypatch-msg hook and interactive mode, which run before patch
application, may expect the signoff to be there.

Fix this by taking note if the user explictly set the --signoff option
on the command-line, and append the signoff to the commit message when
resuming if so.

852a171018 am: let command-line options override saved options
When resuming, git-am mistakenly ignores command-line options.

For instance, when a patch fails to apply with "git am patch",
subsequently running "git am --3way" would not cause git-am to fall
back on attempting a threeway merge.  This occurs because by default
the --3way option is saved as "false", and the saved am options are
loaded after the command-line options are parsed, thus overwriting
the command-line options when resuming.

Fix this by moving the am_load() function call before parse_options(),
so that command-line options will override the saved am options.

The purpose of supporting this use case is to enable users to "wiggle"
that one conflicting patch. As such, it is expected that the
command-line options do not affect subsequent applied patches. Implement
this by calling am_load() once we apply the conflicting patch
successfully.

18d8c26930 test_terminal: redirect child process' stdin to a pty
When resuming, git-am detects if we are trying to feed it patches or not
by checking if stdin is a TTY.

However, the test library redirects stdin to /dev/null. This makes it
difficult, for instance, to test the behavior of "git am -3" when
resuming, as git-am will think we are trying to feed it patches and
error out.

Support this use case by extending test-terminal.perl to create a
pseudo-tty for the child process' standard input as well.

Note that due to the way the code is structured, the child's stdin
pseudo-tty will be closed when we finish reading from our stdin. This
means that in the common case, where our stdin is attached to /dev/null,
the child's stdin pseudo-tty will be closed immediately. Some operations
like isatty(), which git-am uses, require the file descriptor to be
open, and hence if the success of the command depends on such functions,
test_terminal's stdin should be redirected to a source with large amount
of data to ensure that the child's stdin is not closed, e.g.

	test_terminal git am --3way </dev/zero

f4c3edc0b1 vreportf: avoid intermediate buffer
When we call "die(fmt, args...)", we end up in vreportf with
two pieces of information:

  1. The prefix "fatal: "

  2. The original fmt and va_list of args.

We format item (2) into a temporary buffer, and then fprintf
the prefix and the temporary buffer, along with a newline.
This has the unfortunate side effect of truncating any error
messages that are longer than 4096 bytes.

Instead, let's use separate calls for the prefix and
newline, letting us hand the item (2) directly to vfprintf.
This is essentially undoing d048a96 (print
warning/error/fatal messages in one shot, 2007-11-09), which
tried to have the whole output end up in a single `write`
call.

But we can address this instead by explicitly requesting
line-buffering for the output handle, and by making sure
that the buffer is empty before we start (so that outputting
the prefix does not cause a flush due to hitting the buffer
limit).

We may still break the output into two writes if the content
is larger than our buffer, but there's not much we can do
there; depending on the stdio implementation, that might
have happened even with a single fprintf call.

3b331e9267 vreportf: report to arbitrary filehandles
The vreportf function always goes to stderr, but run-command
wants child errors to go to the parent's original stderr. To
solve this, commit a5487dd duplicates the stderr fd and
installs die and error handlers to direct the output
appropriately (which later turned into the vwritef
function). This has two downsides, though:

  - we make multiple calls to write(), which contradicts the
    "write at once" logic from d048a96 (print
    warning/error/fatal messages in one shot, 2007-11-09).

  - the custom handlers basically duplicate the normal
    handlers.  They're only a few lines of code, but we
    should not have to repeat the magic "exit(128)", for
    example.

We can solve the first by using fdopen() on the duplicated
descriptor. We can't pass this to vreportf, but we could
introduce a new vreportf_to to handle it.

However, to fix the second problem, we instead introduce a
new "set_error_handle" function, which lets the normal
vreportf calls output to a handle besides stderr. Thus we
can get rid of our custom handlers entirely, and just ask
the regular handlers to output to our new descriptor.

And as vwritef has no more callers, it can just go away.

f932729cc7 memoize common git-path "constant" files
One of the most common uses of git_path() is to pass a
constant, like git_path("MERGE_MSG"). This has two
drawbacks:

  1. The return value is a static buffer, and the lifetime
     is dependent on other calls to git_path, etc.

  2. There's no compile-time checking of the pathname. This
     is OK for a one-off (after all, we have to spell it
     correctly at least once), but many of these constant
     strings appear throughout the code.

This patch introduces a series of functions to "memoize"
these strings, which are essentially globals for the
lifetime of the program. We compute the value once, take
ownership of the buffer, and return the cached value for
subsequent calls.  cache.h provides a helper macro for
defining these functions as one-liners, and defines a few
common ones for global use.

Using a macro is a little bit gross, but it does nicely
document the purpose of the functions. If we need to touch
them all later (e.g., because we learned how to change the
git_dir variable at runtime, and need to invalidate all of
the stored values), it will be much easier to have the
complete list.

Note that the shared-global functions have separate, manual
declarations. We could do something clever with the macros
(e.g., expand it to a declaration in some places, and a
declaration _and_ a definition in path.c). But there aren't
that many, and it's probably better to stay away from
too-magical macros.

Likewise, if we abandon the C preprocessor in favor of
generating these with a script, we could get much fancier.
E.g., normalizing "FOO/BAR-BAZ" into "git_path_foo_bar_baz".
But the small amount of saved typing is probably not worth
the resulting confusion to readers who want to grep for the
function's definition.

0ea68e4296 get_repo_path: refactor path-allocation
The get_repo_path function calls mkpath() and then does some
non-trivial operations on it, like calling
is_git_directory() and read_gitfile(). These are actually
OK (they do not use more pathname static buffers
themselves), but it takes a fair bit of work to verify.

Let's use our own strbuf to store the path, and we can
simply reuse it for each iteration of the loop (we can even
avoid rewriting the beginning part, since we are trying a
series of suffixes).

To make the strbuf cleanup easier, we split out a thin
wrapper. As a bonus, this wrapper can factor out the
canonicalization that happens in all of the early-return
code paths.

The find_hook function returns the results of git_path,
which is a static buffer shared by other path-related calls.
Returning such a buffer is slightly dangerous, because it
can be overwritten by seemingly unrelated functions.

Let's at least keep our _own_ static buffer, so you can
only get in trouble by calling find_hook in quick
succession, which is less likely to happen and more obvious
to notice.

While we're at it, let's add some documentation of the
function's limitations.

git_path. This is safer, anyway, as remove_dir_recursively
is a non-trivial function that might use the pathname
buffers itself (this is _probably_ OK, as the likely culprit
would be calling resolve_gitlink_ref, but we do not pass the

54b418f698 refs.c: simplify strbufs in reflog setup and writing
Commit 1a83c24 (git_snpath(): retire and replace with
strbuf_git_path(), 2014-11-30) taught log_ref_setup and
log_ref_write_1 to take a strbuf parameter, rather than a
bare string. It then makes an alias to the strbuf's "buf"
field under the original name.

This made the original diff much shorter, but the resulting
code is more complicated that it needs to be. Since we've
aliased the pointer, we drop our reference to the strbuf to
ensure we don't accidentally change it. But if we simply
drop our alias and use "logfile.buf" directly, we do not
have to worry about this aliasing. It's a larger diff, but
the resulting code is simpler.

f5b2dec165 refs.c: remove extra git_path calls from read_loose_refs
In iterating over the loose refs in "refs/foo/", we keep a
running strbuf with "refs/foo/one", "refs/foo/two", etc. But
we also need to access these files in the filesystem, as
".git/refs/foo/one", etc. For this latter purpose, we make a
series of independent calls to git_path(). These are safe
(we only use the result to call stat()), but assigning the
result of git_path is a suspicious pattern that we'd rather
avoid.

This patch keeps a running buffer with ".git/refs/foo/", and
we can just append/reset each directory element as we loop.
This matches how we handle the refnames. It should also be
more efficient, as we do not keep formatting the same
".git/refs/foo" prefix (which can be arbitrarily deep).

Technically we are dropping a call to strbuf_cleanup() on
each generated filename, but that's OK; it wasn't doing
anything, as we are putting in single-level names we read
from the filesystem (so it could not possibly be cleaning up
cruft like "./" in this instance).

A clever reader may also note that the running refname
buffer ("refs/foo/") is actually a subset of the filesystem
path buffer (".git/refs/foo/"). We could get by with one
buffer, indexing the length of $GIT_DIR when we want the
refname. However, having tried this, the resulting code
actually ends up a little more confusing, and the efficiency
improvement is tiny (and almost certainly dwarfed by the
system calls we are making).

b21a5d6605 remote.c: drop extraneous local variable from migrate_file
It's an anti-pattern to assign the result of git_path to a
variable, since other calls may reuse our buffer. In this
case, we feed the result to unlink_or_warn immediately
afterwards, so it's OK. However, it's nice to avoid
assignment entirely, which makes it more obvious that
there's no bug.

We can just pass the result directly to unlink_or_warn,
which is a known-simple function. As a bonus, the code flow
is a little more obvious, as we eliminate an extra
conditional (a reader does not have to wonder any more
"under which circumstances is 'path' set?").

e3cf230324 prefer mkpathdup to mkpath in assignments
As with the previous commit to git_path, assigning the
result of mkpath is suspicious, since it is not clear
whether we will still depend on the value after it may have
been overwritten by subsequent calls. This patch converts
low-hanging fruit to use mkpathdup instead of mkpath (with
the downside that we must remember to free the result).

fcd12db6af prefer git_pathdup to git_path in some possibly-dangerous cases
Because git_path uses a static buffer that is shared with
calls to git_path, mkpath, etc, it can be dangerous to
assign the result to a variable or pass it to a non-trivial
function. The value may change unexpectedly due to other
calls.

None of the cases changed here has a known bug, but they're
worth converting away from git_path because:

  1. It's easy to use git_pathdup in these cases.

  2. They use constructs (like assignment) that make it
     hard to tell whether they're safe or not.

The extra malloc overhead should be trivial, as an
allocation should be an order of magnitude cheaper than a
system call (which we are clearly about to make, since we
are constructing a filename). The real cost is that we must
remember to free the result.

77b9b1d13a add_to_alternates_file: don't add duplicate entries
The add_to_alternates_file function blindly uses
hold_lock_file_for_append to copy the existing contents, and
then adds the new line to it. This has two minor problems:

  1. We might add duplicate entries, which are ugly and
     inefficient.

  2. We do not check that the file ends with a newline, in
     which case we would bogusly append to the final line.
     This is quite unlikely in practice, though, as we call
     this function only from git-clone, so presumably we are
     the only writers of the file (and we always add a
     newline).

Instead of using hold_lock_file_for_append, let's copy the
file line by line, which ensures all records are properly
terminated. If we see an extra line, we can simply abort the
update (there is no point in even copying the rest, as we
know that it would be identical to the original).

As a bonus, we also get rid of some calls to the
static-buffer mkpath and git_path functions.

bc192300c4 t5700: modernize style
The early part of this test is rather old, and does not
follow our usual style guidelines. In particular:

  - the tests liberally chdir, and expect out-of-test "cd"
    commands to return them to a sane state

  - test commands aren't indented at all

  - there are a lot of minor formatting nits, like the
    opening quote of the test block on the wrong line,
    spaces after ">", etc

This patch fixes the style issues, and uses a few helper
functions, along with subshells and "git -C", to avoid
changing the cwd of the main script.

f5895fd399 cache.h: complete set of git_path_submodule helpers
The git_path function has "git_pathdup" and
"strbuf_git_path" variants, but git_submodule_path only
comes in the dangerous, static-buffer variant. That makes
refactoring callers to use the safer functions hard (since
they don't exist).

Since we're already using a strbuf behind the scenes, it's
easy to expose all three of these interfaces with thin
wrappers.

69ddd231fe cache.h: clarify documentation for git_path, et al
The comment above these functions actually describes
sha1_file_name, and comes from the very first revision of
git. Commit 723c31f (Add "git_path()" and "head_ref()"
helper functions., 2005-07-05) added git_path, pushing the
comment away from the function it describes; later commits
added more functions in this block.

Let's fix the comment to describe these related functions in
more detail. Let's also make sure to point out their safer
alternatives (and move those alternatives below, which makes
more sense when reading the file).

Note that we do not need to move the existing comment to
sha1_file_name.  Commit d40d535 (sha1_file.c: document a
bunch of functions defined in the file, 2014-02-21) already
added a much more descriptive comment to it.

Allow an existing file to be registered with the tempfile-handling
infrastructure; in particular, arrange for it to be deleted on program
exit. This can be used if the temporary file has to be created in a
more complicated way than just open(). For example:

* If the file itself needs to be created via the lockfile API
* If it is not a regular file (e.g., a socket)

This makes the next step easier.

The old code used to use "path" to set the initial length of
tempfile->filename. This was not helpful because path was usually
relative whereas the value stored to filename will be absolute. So
just initialize the length to 0.

1a9d15db25 tempfile: a new module for handling temporary files
A lot of work went into defining the state diagram for lockfiles and
ensuring correct, race-resistant cleanup in all circumstances.

Most of that infrastructure can be applied directly to *any* temporary
file. So extract a new "tempfile" module from the "lockfile" module.
Reimplement lockfile on top of tempfile.

Subsequent commits will add more users of the new module.
