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.

rebase: add --quit to cleanup rebase, leave everything else untouched
There are occasions when you decide to abort an in-progress rebase and
move on to do something else but you forget to do "git rebase --abort"
first. Or the rebase has been in progress for so long you forgot about
it. By the time you realize that (e.g. by starting another rebase)
it's already too late to retrace your steps. The solution is normally
rm -r .git/<some rebase dir>
and continue with your life. But there could be two different
directories for <some rebase dir> (and it obviously requires some
knowledge of how rebase works), and the ".git" part could be much
longer if you are not at top-dir, or in a linked worktree. And
"rm -r" is very dangerous to do in .git, a mistake in there could
destroy object database or other important data.
Provide "git rebase --quit" for this use case, mimicking a precedent
that is "git cherry-pick --quit".

In contrast to "git am --abort", a sequencer abort did not check

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.

difftool: fix dir-diff index creation when in a subdirectory

The left side of the diff is constructed from a temporary

shallow.c: remove useless code
Some context before we talk about the removed code.
This paint_down() is part of step 6 of
58babff (shallow.c: the 8 steps
to select new commits for .git/shallow - 2013-12-05). When we fetch from
a shallow repository, we need to know if one of the new/updated refs
needs new "shallow commits" in .git/shallow (because we don't have
enough history of those refs) and which one.
The question at step 6 is, what (new) shallow commits are required in
other to maintain reachability throughout the repository _without_
cutting our history short? To answer, we mark all commits reachable from
existing refs with UNINTERESTING ("rev-list --not --all"), mark shallow
commits with BOTTOM, then for each new/updated refs, walk through the
commit graph until we either hit UNINTERESTING or BOTTOM, marking the
ref on the commit as we walk.
After all the walking is done, we check the new shallow commits. If we
have not seen any new ref marked on a new shallow commit, we know all
new/updated refs are reachable using just our history and .git/shallow.
The shallow commit in question is not needed and can be thrown away.
So, the code.
The loop here (to walk through commits) is basically
1. get one commit from the queue
2. ignore if it's SEEN or UNINTERESTING
3. mark it
4. go through all the parents and..
5a. mark it if it's never marked before
5b. put it back in the queue
What we do in this patch is drop step 5a because it is not
necessary. The commit being marked at 5a is put back on the queue, and
will be marked at step 3 at the next iteration. The only case it will
not be marked is when the commit is already marked UNINTERESTING (5a
does not check this), which will be ignored at step 2.
But we don't care about refs marking on UNINTERESTING. We care about the
marking on _shallow commits_ that are not reachable from our current
history (and having UNINTERESTING on it means it's reachable). So it's
ok for an UNINTERESTING not to be ref-marked.

shallow.c: make paint_alloc slightly more robust
paint_alloc() allocates a big block of memory and splits it into

contains enough bits to present all "new refs" [1] in a fetch from a
shallow repository.
We do not check if the new "big block" is smaller than the requested

region smaller than expected. Which will lead to problems eventually.
A normal fetch may add/update a dozen new refs. Let's stay on the
"reasonably extreme" side and say we need 16k refs (or bits from
paint_alloc's perspective). Each chunk of memory would be 2k, much
smaller than the memory pool (512k).
So, normally, the under-allocation situation should never happen. A bad

Since commit
17966c0a6 (http: avoid disconnecting on 404s

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

errors, we'd want to say _something_, if only to fill in the

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".

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).

http: always update the base URL for redirects
If a malicious server redirects the initial ref

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

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).

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.

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.
