Subversion 1.8 added a new property `svn:global-ignores`. It
contains a list of patterns used to determine what files should
be ignored. If Git-SVN is going to ignore these files as well, it
is important that we do not skip over directories that have this
property set.

The following commit will make use of a Getopt::Long feature which is
only present in Perl >= 5.8.1. Document that as the minimum version we
support.
Many of our Perl scripts will continue to run with 5.8.0 but this change
allows us to adjust them as needed without breaking any promises to our
users.
The Perl requirement was last changed in d48b284183 (perl: bump the
required Perl version to 5.8 from 5.6.[21], 2010-09-24). At that time,
5.8.0 was 8 years old. It is now over 21 years old.

When initializing a repository object, we run "git rev-parse --git-dir"
to let the C version of Git find the correct directory. But curiously,
if this fails we don't automatically say "not a git repository".
Instead, we do our own pure-perl check to see if we're in a bare
repository.
This makes little sense, as rev-parse will report both bare and non-bare
directories. This logic comes from d5c7721d58 (Git.pm: Add support for
subdirectories inside of working copies, 2006-06-24), but I don't see
any reason given why we can't just rely on rev-parse. Worse, because we
treat any non-error response from rev-parse as a non-bare repository,
we'll erroneously set the object's WorkingCopy, even in a bare
repository.
But it gets worse. Since 8959555cee (setup_git_directory(): add an owner
check for the top-level directory, 2022-03-02), it's actively wrong (and
dangerous). The perl code doesn't implement the same ownership checks.
And worse, after "finding" the bare repository, it sets GIT_DIR in the
environment, which tells any subsequent Git commands that we've
confirmed the directory is OK, and to trust us. I.e., it re-opens the
vulnerability plugged by 8959555cee when using Git.pm's repository
discovery code.
We can fix this by just relying on rev-parse to tell us when we're not
in a repository, which fixes the vulnerability. Furthermore, we'll ask
its --is-bare-repository function to tell us if we're bare or not, and
rely on that.

When attempting to initialize a repository object in an unsafe
directory, a syntax error is reported (Can't use string as a HASH ref
while strict refs in use). Fix this runtime error by adding the required
semicolon after the catch statement.
Without the semicolon, the result of the following line (i.e., the
result of Cwd::abs_path) is passed as the third argument to Error.pm's
catch function. That function expects that its third argument,
$clauses, is a hash reference, and trying to access a string as a hash
reference is a fatal error.

Fix misbehavior in Git.pm that dates back to the very first version of
the library in git.git added in b1edc53d06 (Introduce Git.pm (v4),
2006-06-24). When we fail to execute a command we shouldn't ignore all
signals, those can happen e.g. if abort() is called, or if the command
segfaults.
Because of this we'd consider e.g. a command that died due to LSAN
exiting with abort() successful, as is the case with the tests listed
as running successfully with SANITIZE=leak in 9081a421a6 (checkout:
fix "branch info" memory leaks, 2021-11-16). We did run them
successfully, but only because we ignored these errors.
This was then made worse by the use of "abort_on_error=1" for LSAN
added in 85b81b35ff (test-lib: set LSAN_OPTIONS to abort by default,
2017-09-05). Doing that makes sense, but without providing that option
we'd have a "$? >> 8" of "23" on failure, with abort_on_error=1 we'll
get "0".
All of our tests pass even without the SIGPIPE exception being added
here, but as the code appears to have been trying to ignore it let's
keep ignoring it for now.

Move the newly added "hooks_path" API in Git.pm to its only user in
git-send-email.perl. This was added in c8243933c7 (git-send-email:
Respect core.hooksPath setting, 2021-03-23), meaning that it hasn't
yet made it into a non-rc release of git.
The consensus with Git.pm is that we need to be considerate of
out-of-tree users who treat it as a public documented interface. We
should therefore be less willing to add new functionality to it, least
we be stuck supporting it after our own uses for it disappear.
In this case the git-send-email.perl hook invocation will probably be
replaced by a future "git hook run" command, and in the commit
preceding this one the "hooks_path" become nothing but a trivial
wrapper for "rev-parse --git-path hooks" anyway (with no
Cwd::abs_path() call), so let's just inline this command in
git-send-email.perl itself.

In c8243933c7 (git-send-email: Respect core.hooksPath setting,
2021-03-23) we started supporting core.hooksPath in "send-email". It's
been reported that on Windows[1] doing this by calling abs_path()
results in different canonicalizations of the absolute path.
This wasn't an issue in c8243933c7 itself, but was revealed by my
ea7811b37e (git-send-email: improve --validate error output,
2021-04-06) when we started emitting the path to the hook, which was
previously only internal to git-send-email.perl.
The just-landed 53753a37d0 (t9001-send-email.sh: fix expected
absolute paths on Windows, 2021-05-24) narrowly fixed this issue, but
I believe we can do better here. We should not be relying on whatever
changes Perl's abs_path() makes to the path "rev-parse --git-path
hooks" hands to us. Let's instead trust it, and hand it to Perl's
system() in git-send-email.perl. It will handle either a relative or
absolute path.
So let's revert most of 53753a37d0 and just have "hooks_path" return
what we get from "rev-parse" directly without modification. This has
the added benefit of making the error message friendlier in the common
case, we'll no longer print an absolute path for repository-local hook
errors.

We set "use warnings" in most of our perl code to catch problems. But as
the name implies, warnings just emit a message to stderr and don't
otherwise affect the program. So our tests are quite likely to miss that
warnings are being spewed, as most of them do not look at stderr.
We could ask perl to make all warnings fatal, but this is likely
annoying for non-developers, who would rather have a running program
with a warning than something that refuses to work at all.
So instead, let's teach the perl code to respect an environment variable
(GIT_PERL_FATAL_WARNINGS) to increase the severity of the warnings. This
can be set for day-to-day running if people want to be really pedantic,
but the primary use is to trigger it within the test suite.
We could also trigger that for every test run, but likewise even the
tests failing may be annoying to distro builders, etc (just as -Werror
would be for compiling C code). So we'll tie it to a special test-mode
variable (GIT_TEST_PERL_FATAL_WARNINGS) that can be set in the
environment or as a Makefile knob, and we'll automatically turn the knob
when DEVELOPER=1 is set. That should give developers and CI the more
careful view without disrupting normal users or packagers.
Note that the mapping from the GIT_TEST_* form to the GIT_* form in
test-lib.sh is necessary even if they had the same name: the perl
scripts need it to be normalized to a perl truth value, and we also have
to make sure it's exported (we might have gotten it from the
environment, but we might also have gotten it from GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS
directly).

The commit 9ab33150a0 ("perl: create and switch variables for hash
constants", 2020-06-22) converted each instance of the variable
$sha1_short into $oid_short in the Subversion code, since git-svn now
understands SHA-256. However, one conversion was missed.
As a result, Perl complains about the use of this variable:
Use of uninitialized value $sha1_short in regexp compilation at
/usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.30.3/Git/SVN/Log.pm line 301, <$fh>
line 6.
Because we're parsing raw diff output here, the likelihood is very low
that we'll actually misparse the data, since the only lines we're going
to get starting with colons are the ones we're expecting. Even if we
had a newline in a path, we'd end up with a quoted path. Our regex is
just less strict than we'd like it to be.
However, it's obviously undesirable that our code is emitting Perl
warnings, so let's convert it to use the proper variable name.

When parsing the revision map format, use a wildcard in the pack format

A build-time option has been added to allow Git to be told to refer
to its associated files relative to the main binary, in the same
way that has been possible on Windows for quite some time, for
Linux, BSDs and Darwin.
* dj/runtime-prefix:
Makefile: quote $INSTLIBDIR when passing it to sed

exec_cmd: provide a new-style RUNTIME_PREFIX helper for Windows

Makefile: add Perl runtime prefix support
Makefile: generate Perl header from template file
Broaden the RUNTIME_PREFIX flag to configure Git's Perl scripts to
locate the Git installation's Perl support libraries by resolving
against the script's path, rather than hard-coding that path at
build-time. Hard-coding at build time worked on previous
RUNTIME_PREFIX configurations (i.e., Windows) because the Perl
scripts were run within a virtual filesystem whose paths were
consistent regardless of the location of the actual installation.
This will no longer be the case for non-Windows RUNTIME_PREFIX users.
When enabled, RUNTIME_PREFIX now requires Perl's system paths to be
expressed relative to a common installation directory in the Makefile,
and uses that relationship to locate support files based on the known
starting point of the script being executed, much like RUNTIME_PREFIX
does for the Git binary.
This change enables Git's Perl scripts to work when their Git installation
is relocated or moved to another system, even when they are not in a
virtual filesystem environment.

His loader was simpler since Mail::Address doesn't have an "import"
method, but didn't do the same sanity checking; For example, a missing
FromCPAN directory (which OS packages are likely not to have) wouldn't
be explicitly warned about as a "BUG: ...".
Update both to use a common implementation based on the previous
Error.pm loader. Which has been amended to take the module to load as
parameter, as well as whether or not that module has an import
method.
This loader should be generic enough to handle almost all CPAN modules
out there, some use some crazy loading magic and wouldn't like being
wrapped like this, but that would be immediately obvious, and we'd
find out right away since the module wouldn't work at all.

Move the Git::Error and Git::Mail::Address wrappers to the
Git::LoadCPAN::Loader::* namespace, e.g. Git::LoadCPAN::Error. That
module will then either load Error from CPAN (if installed on the OS),
or use Git::FromCPAN::Error.
When I added the Error wrapper in 20d2a30f8f ("Makefile: replace
perl/Makefile.PL with simple make rules", 2017-12-10) I didn't think
about how confusing it would be to have these modules sitting in the
same tree as our normal modules. Let's put these all into
Git::{Load,From}CPAN::* to clearly distinguish them from the rest.
This also makes things a bit less confusing since there was already a
Git::Error namespace ever since 8b9150e3e3 ("Git.pm: Handle failed
commands' output", 2006-06-24).

Update our copy of Mail::Address from 2.19 (Aug 22, 2017) to 2.20 (Jan
23, 2018). Like the preceding Error.pm update this is done simply to
keep up-to-date with upstream, and as can be shown from the diff
there's no functional changes.

The Error.pm shipped with Git as a fallback if there was no Error.pm
on the system was released in April 2006. There's been dozens of
releases since then, the latest at August 7, 2017. Let's update to
that.
I don't know of anything we need from this new release or which this
fixes. This change is simply a matter of keeping up with
upstream. Before this users who'd install git via their package system
would get an up-to-date Error.pm, but if it's installed from source
they'd get one more than a decade old.
This undoes a local hack we'd accumulated in 96bc4de85c ("Eliminate
Scalar::Util usage from private-Error.pm", 2006-07-26), it's been
redundant since my d48b284183 ("perl: bump the required Perl version
to 5.8 from 5.6.[21]", 2010-09-24).
This also undoes 3a51467b94 ("Typo fix: replacing it's -> its",
2013-04-13). This is the Nth time I find that some upstream code of
ours (in contrib/, in sha1dc/ and now in perl/ ...) has diverged from
upstream because of some tree-wide typo fixing. Let's not do those
fixes against upstream projects, it's more valuable that we have a 1=1
mapping to upstream than to fix typos in docs we never even generate
from this code. If someone wants to fix typos in them fine, but they
should do it with a patch to upstream which git.git can then
incorporate.
The upstream code doesn't cleanly pass a --check, so I'm adding a
.gitattributes file for similar reasons as done for sha1dc in
5d184f468e ("sha1dc: ignore indent-with-non-tab whitespace
violations", 2017-06-06).

Since my d48b284183 ("perl: bump the required Perl version to 5.8 from
5.6.[21]", 2010-09-24), we've depended on 5.8, so there's no reason to
conditionally require File::Temp and File::Spec anymore. They were
first released with perl versions v5.6.1 and 5.00405, respectively.
This code was originally added in c14c8ceb13 ("Git.pm: Make File::Spec
and File::Temp requirement lazy", 2008-08-15), presumably to make
Git.pm work on 5.6.0.

Amend Git.pm to load the "warnings" pragma like the rest of the code
in perl/ in addition to the existing "strict" pragma. This is
considered the bare minimum best practice in Perl.
Ever since this code was introduced in b1edc53d06 ("Introduce
Git.pm (v4)", 2006-06-24) it's only been using "strict", not
"warnings".
This leaves contrib/buildsystems/Generators/{QMake,VCproj}.pm and
contrib/mw-to-git/Git/Mediawiki.pm without "use warnings". Amending
those would be a sensible follow-up change, but I don't have an easy
way to test those so I'm not changing them.

In Perl the "use strict/warnings" pragmas are lexical, thus there's no
reason to do:
package Foo;
use strict;
package Bar;
use strict;
$x = 5;
To satisfy the desire that the undeclared $x variable will be spotted
at compile-time. It's enough to include the first "use strict".
This functionally changes nothing, but makes a subsequent change where
"use warnings" will be added to Git.pm less confusing and less
verbose, since as with "strict" we'll only need to do that at the top
of the file.
Changes code initially added in a6065b548f ("Git.pm: Try to support
ActiveState output pipe", 2006-06-25).

The Git::Mail::Address file added in bd869f67b9 ("send-email: add and
use a local copy of Mail::Address", 2018-01-05) had the executable bit
set. That bit should not be set for *.pm files. It breaks nothing but
it is redundant and confusing as none of the other files have it and
these files are never executed as stand-alone programs.

Amazingly, timegm(gmtime(0)) is only 0 before 2020 because perl's
timegm deviates from GNU timegm(3) in how it handles years.
man Time::Local says
Whenever possible, use an absolute four digit year instead.
with a detailed explanation about ambiguity of 2-digit years above that.
Even though this ambiguity is error-prone with >50% of users getting it
wrong, it has been like this for 20+ years, so we just use 4-digit years
everywhere to be on the safe side.
We add some extra logic to cvsimport because it allows 2-digit year
input and interpreting an 18 as 1918 can be avoided easily and safely.

The build procedure for perl/ part has been greatly simplified by
weaning ourselves off of MakeMaker.
* ab/simplify-perl-makefile:
perl: treat PERLLIB_EXTRA as an extra path again
perl: avoid *.pmc and fix Error.pm further
Makefile: replace perl/Makefile.PL with simple make rules
