Just like the `hash-object --literally` code path, the `--stdin` code path also needs to use `size_t` instead of `unsigned long` to represent memory sizes, otherwise it would cause problems on platforms using the LLP64 data model (such as Windows). To limit the scope of the test case, the object is explicitly not written to the object store, nor are any filters applied. The `big` file from the previous test case is reused to save setup time; To avoid relying on that side effect, it is generated if it does not exist (e.g. when running via `sh t1007-*.sh --long --run=1,41`).

To complement the `--stdin` and `--literally` test cases that verify that we can hash files larger than 4GB on 64-bit platforms using the LLP64 data model, here is a test case that exercises `hash-object` _without_ any options. Just as before, we use the `big` file from the previous test case if it exists to save on setup time, otherwise generate it.

To verify that the `clean` side of the `clean`/`smudge` filter code is correct with regards to LLP64 (read: to ensure that `size_t` is used instead of `unsigned long`), here is a test case using a trivial filter, specifically _not_ writing anything to the object store to limit the scope of the test case. As in previous commits, the `big` file from previous test cases is reused if available, to save setup time, otherwise re-generated.

In the case of Git for Windows (say, in a Git Bash window) running in a Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) directory, the GetNamedSecurityInfoW() call in is_path_owned_By_current_side() returns an error code other than ERROR_SUCCESS. This is consistent behavior across this boundary. In these cases, the owner would always be different because the WSL owner is a different entity than the Windows user. The change here is to suppress the error message that looks like this: error: failed to get owner for '//wsl.localhost/...' (1) Before this change, this warning happens for every Git command, regardless of whether the directory is marked with safe.directory. Signed-off-by: Derrick Stolee <[email protected]>
For Windows builds >= 15063 set $env:TERM to "xterm-256color" instead of "cygwin" because they have a more capable console system that supports this. Also set $env:COLORTERM="truecolor" if unset. $env:TERM is initialized so that ANSI colors in color.c work, see 29a3963 (Win32: patch Windows environment on startup, 2012-01-15). See git-for-windows#3629 regarding problems caused by always setting $env:TERM="cygwin". This is the same heuristic used by the Cygwin runtime.

NtQueryObject under Wine can return a success but fill out no name. In those situations, Wine will set Buffer to NULL, and set result to the sizeof(OBJECT_NAME_INFORMATION). Running a command such as echo "$(git.exe --version 2>/dev/null)" will crash due to a NULL pointer dereference when the code attempts to null terminate the buffer, although, weirdly, removing the subshell or redirecting stdout to a file will not trigger the crash. Code has been added to also check Buffer and Length to ensure the check is as robust as possible due to the current behavior being fragile at best, and could potentially change in the future This code is based on the behavior of NtQueryObject under wine and reactos.

From the documentation of said setting: This boolean will enable fsync() when writing object files. This is a total waste of time and effort on a filesystem that orders data writes properly, but can be useful for filesystems that do not use journalling (traditional UNIX filesystems) or that only journal metadata and not file contents (OS X’s HFS+, or Linux ext3 with "data=writeback"). The most common file system on Windows (NTFS) does not guarantee that order, therefore a sudden loss of power (or any other event causing an unclean shutdown) would cause corrupt files (i.e. files filled with NULs). Therefore we need to change the default. Note that the documentation makes it sound as if this causes really bad performance. In reality, writing loose objects is something that is done only rarely, and only a handful of files at a time. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <[email protected]>
Whith Windows 2000, Microsoft introduced a flag to the PE header to mark executables as "terminal server aware". Windows terminal servers provide a redirected Windows directory and redirected registry hives when launching legacy applications without this flag set. Since we do not use any INI files in the Windows directory and don't write to the registry, we don't need this additional preparation. Telling the OS that we don't need this should provide slightly improved startup times in terminal server environments. When building for supported Windows Versions with MSVC the /TSAWARE linker flag is automatically set, but MinGW requires us to set the --tsaware flag manually. This partially addresses git-for-windows#3935. Signed-off-by: Matthias Aßhauer <[email protected]>
CLANGARM64 is a relatively new MSYSTEM added by the MSYS2 team. In order to have Git build correctly for this platform, let's add some configuration for it to config.mak.uname. Signed-off-by: Dennis Ameling <[email protected]>
Git for Windows/ARM64 settled on using `clang` to compile `git.exe`, and hence needs to run in a system where `MSYSTEM` is set to `CLANGARM64` and the prefix to use is `/clangarm64`. We already did that in the `MINGW` arm, i.e. for regular Git for Windows builds using MINGW GCC (or `clang`'s shim pretending to be GCC), now it is time to do the same in the MS Visual C part.

In fb5e337 (mingw: move Git for Windows' system config where users expect it, 2021-06-22), I moved the location of Git for Windows' system config and system Git attributes file to the top-level `/etc/` directory (because it is a much more obvious location than, say, `/mingw64/etc/`). The patch relied on a very specific scenario that the newly-supported Windows/ARM64 builds of `git.exe` fails to fall into. So let's broaden the condition a bit, so that Windows/ARM64 builds also use that location (instead of the even more obscure `/clangarm64/etc/` directory). This fixes git-for-windows#5431.

In f9b7573 (repository: free fields before overwriting them, 2017-09-05), Git was taught to release memory before overwriting it, but 357a03e (repository.c: move env-related setup code back to environment.c, 2018-03-03) changed the code so that it would not _always_ be overwritten. As a consequence, the `commondir` attribute would point to already-free()d memory. This seems not to cause problems in core Git, but there are add-on patches in Git for Windows where the `commondir` attribute is subsequently used and causing invalid memory accesses e.g. in setups containing old-style submodules (i.e. the ones with a `.git` directory within theirs worktrees) that have `commondir` configured. This fixes git-for-windows#4083. Signed-off-by: Andrey Zabavnikov <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <[email protected]>
It is merely a historical wart that, say, `git-commit` exists in the `libexec/git-core/` directory, a tribute to the original idea to let Git be essentially a bunch of Unix shell scripts revolving around very few "plumbing" (AKA low-level) commands. Git has evolved a lot from there. These days, most of Git's functionality is contained within the `git` executable, in the form of "built-in" commands. To accommodate for scripts that use the "dashed" form of Git commands, even today, Git provides hard-links that make the `git` executable available as, say, `git-commit`, just in case that an old script has not been updated to invoke `git commit`. Those hard-links do not come cheap: they take about half a minute for every build of Git on Windows, they are mistaken for taking up huge amounts of space by some Windows Explorer versions that do not understand hard-links, and therefore many a "bug" report had to be addressed. The "dashed form" has been officially deprecated in Git version 1.5.4, which was released on February 2nd, 2008, i.e. a very long time ago. This deprecation was never finalized by skipping these hard-links, but we can start the process now, in Git for Windows. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <[email protected]>
This compile-time option allows to ask Git to load libcurl dynamically at runtime. Together with a follow-up patch that optionally overrides the file name depending on the `http.sslBackend` setting, this kicks open the door for installing multiple libcurl flavors side by side, and load the one corresponding to the (runtime-)configured SSL/TLS backend. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <[email protected]>
This implements the Windows-specific support code, because everything is slightly different on Windows, even loading shared libraries. Note: I specifically do _not_ use the code from `compat/win32/lazyload.h` here because that code is optimized for loading individual functions from various system DLLs, while we specifically want to load _many_ functions from _one_ DLL here, and distinctly not a system DLL (we expect libcurl to be located outside `C:\Windows\system32`, something `INIT_PROC_ADDR` refuses to work with). Also, the `curl_easy_getinfo()`/`curl_easy_setopt()` functions are declared as vararg functions, which `lazyload.h` cannot handle. Finally, we are about to optionally override the exact file name that is to be loaded, which is a goal contrary to `lazyload.h`'s design. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <[email protected]>
The previous commits introduced a compile-time option to load libcurl lazily, but it uses the hard-coded name "libcurl-4.dll" (or equivalent on platforms other than Windows). To allow for installing multiple libcurl flavors side by side, where each supports one specific SSL/TLS backend, let's first look whether `libcurl-<backend>-4.dll` exists, and only use `libcurl-4.dll` as a fall back. That will allow us to ship with a libcurl by default that only supports the Secure Channel backend for the `https://` protocol. This libcurl won't suffer from any dependency problem when upgrading OpenSSL to a new major version (which will change the DLL name, and hence break every program and library that depends on it). This is crucial because Git for Windows relies on libcurl to keep working when building and deploying a new OpenSSL package because that library is used by `git fetch` and `git clone`. Note that this feature is by no means specific to Windows. On Ubuntu, for example, a `git` built using `LAZY_LOAD_LIBCURL` will use `libcurl.so.4` for `http.sslbackend=openssl` and `libcurl-gnutls.so.4` for `http.sslbackend=gnutls`.

Since Git v2.39.1, we are a bit more stringent in searching the PATH. In particular, we specifically require the `.exe` suffix. However, the `Repository>Explore Working Copy` command asks for `explorer.exe` to be found on the `PATH`, which _already_ has that suffix. Let's unstartle the PATH-finding logic about this scenario. This fixes git-for-windows#4356 Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <[email protected]>
This will help with Git for Windows' maintenance going forward: It allows Git for Windows to switch its primary libcurl to a variant without the OpenSSL backend, while still loading an alternate when setting `http.sslBackend = openssl`. This is necessary to avoid maintenance headaches with upgrading OpenSSL: its major version name is encoded in the shared library's file name and hence major version updates (temporarily) break libraries that are linked against the OpenSSL library.

When running Git for Windows on a remote APFS filesystem, it would appear that the `mingw_open_append()`/`write()` combination would fail almost exactly like on some CIFS-mounted shares as had been reported in git-for-windows#2753, albeit with a different `errno` value. Let's handle that `errno` value just the same, by suggesting to set `windows.appendAtomically=false`.

Windows 10 version 1511 (also known as Anniversary Update), according to https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/console/console-virtual-terminal-sequences introduced native support for ANSI sequence processing. This allows using colors from the entire 24-bit color range. All we need to do is test whether the console's "virtual processing support" can be enabled. If it can, we do not even need to start the `console_thread` to handle ANSI sequences. Or, almost all we need to do: When `console_thread()` does its work, it uses the Unicode-aware `write_console()` function to write to the Win32 Console, which supports Git for Windows' implicit convention that all text that is written is encoded in UTF-8. The same is not necessarily true if native ANSI sequence processing is used, as the output is then subject to the current code page. Let's ensure that the code page is set to `CP_UTF8` as long as Git writes to it. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <[email protected]>
winuser.h contains the definition of RT_MANIFEST that our LLVM based toolchain needs to understand that we want to embed compat/win32/git.manifest as an application manifest. It currently just embeds it as additional data that Windows doesn't understand. This also helps our GCC based toolchain understand that we only want one copy embedded. It currently embeds one working assembly manifest and one nearly identical, but useless copy as additional data. This also teaches our Visual Studio based buildsystems to pick up the manifest file from git.rc. This means we don't have to explicitly specify it in contrib/buildsystems/Generators/Vcxproj.pm anymore. Slightly counter-intuitively this also means we have to explicitly tell Cmake not to embed a default manifest.

By default, the buffer type of Windows' `stdout` is unbuffered (_IONBF), and there is no need to manually fflush `stdout`.

This nees `fflush(stdout)` to be called manually, otherwise there will be no output to `stdout`.

A long time ago, we decided to run tests in Git for Windows' SDK with the default `winsymlinks` mode: copying instead of linking. This is still the default mode of MSYS2 to this day. However, this is not how most users run Git for Windows: As the majority of Git for Windows' users seem to be on Windows 10 and newer, likely having enabled Developer Mode (which allows creating symbolic links without administrator privileges), they will run with symlink support enabled. This is the reason why it is crucial to get the fixes for CVE-2024-? to the users, and also why it is crucial to ensure that the test suite exercises the related test cases. This commit ensures the latter. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <[email protected]>
The `__MINGW64__` constant is defined, surprise, surprise, only when
building for a 64-bit CPU architecture.
Therefore using it as a guard to define `_POSIX_C_SOURCE` (so that
`localtime_r()` is declared, among other functions) is not enough, we
also need to check `__MINGW32__`.
Technically, the latter constant is defined even for 64-bit builds. But
let's make things a bit easier to understand by testing for both
constants.
Making it so fixes this compile warning (turned error in GCC v14.1):
archive-zip.c: In function 'dos_time':
archive-zip.c:612:9: error: implicit declaration of function 'localtime_r';
did you mean 'localtime_s'? [-Wimplicit-function-declaration]

The sparse tree walk algorithm was created in d5d2e93 (revision: implement sparse algorithm, 2019-01-16) and involves using the mark_trees_uninteresting_sparse() method. This method takes a repository and an oidset of tree IDs, some of which have the UNINTERESTING flag and some of which do not. Create a method that has an equivalent set of preconditions but uses a "dense" walk (recursively visits all reachable trees, as long as they have not previously been marked UNINTERESTING). This is an important difference from mark_tree_uninteresting(), which short-circuits if the given tree has the UNINTERESTING flag. A use of this method will be added in a later change, with a condition set whether the sparse or dense approach should be used. Signed-off-by: Derrick Stolee <[email protected]>
