"git push $there --delete ''" should have been diagnosed as an
error, but instead turned into a matching push, which has been
corrected.
* jc/push-delete-nothing:
push: do not turn --delete '' into a matching push
When we added a syntax sugar "git push remote --delete <ref>" to
"git push" as a synonym to the canonical "git push remote :<ref>"
syntax at f517f1f2 (builtin-push: add --delete as syntactic sugar
for :foo, 2009-12-30), we weren't careful enough to make sure that
<ref> is not empty.
Blindly rewriting "--delete <ref>" to ":<ref>" means that an empty
string <ref> results in refspec ":", which is the syntax to ask for
"matching" push that does not delete anything.
Worse yet, if there were matching refs that can be fast-forwarded,
they would have been published prematurely, even if the user feels
that they are not ready yet to be pushed out, which would be a real
disaster.

Commit 014ade7484 (upload-pack: send ERR packet for non-tip objects,
2019-04-13) added a test that greps the output of a failed fetch to make
sure that upload-pack sent us the ERR packet we expected. But checking
this is racy; despite the argument in that commit, the client may still
be sending a "done" line after the server exits, causing it to die() on
a failed write() and never see the ERR packet at all.
This fails quite rarely on Linux, but more often on macOS. However, it
can be triggered reliably with:
diff --git a/fetch-pack.c b/fetch-pack.c
index 876f90c759..cf40de9092 100644
--- a/fetch-pack.c

if (!got_ready || !no_done) {

packet_buf_write(&req_buf, "done\n");
send_request(args, fd[1], &req_buf);
}
This is a real user-visible race that it would be nice to fix, but it's
tricky to do so: the client would have to speculatively try to read an
ERR packet after hitting a write() error. And at least for this error,
it's specific to v0 (since v2 does not enforce reachability at all).
So let's loosen the test to avoid annoying racy failures. If we
eventually do the read-after-failed-write thing, we can tighten it. And
if not, v0 will grow increasingly obsolete as servers support v2, so the
utility of this test will decrease over time anyway.
Note that we can still check stderr to make sure upload-pack bailed for
the reason we expected. It writes a similar message to stderr, and
because the server side is just another process connected by pipes,
we'll reliably see it. This would not be the case for git://, or for
ssh servers that do not relay stderr (e.g., GitHub's custom endpoint
does not).

In addition to the manual adjustment to let the `linux-gcc` CI job run
the test suite with `master` and then with `main`, this patch makes sure
that GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME is set in all test scripts
that currently rely on the initial branch name being `master by default.
To determine which test scripts to mark up, the first step was to
force-set the default branch name to `master` in
- all test scripts that contain the keyword `master`,
- t4211, which expects `t/t4211/history.export` with a hard-coded ref to
initialize the default branch,
- t5560 because it sources `t/t556x_common` which uses `master`,
- t8002 and t8012 because both source `t/annotate-tests.sh` which also
uses `master`)
This trick was performed by this command:
$ sed -i '/^ *\. \.\/\(test-lib\|lib-\(bash\|cvs\|git-svn\)\|gitweb-lib\)\.sh$/i\
GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME=master\
export GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME\
' $(git grep -l master t/t[0-9]*.sh) \
t/t4211*.sh t/t5560*.sh t/t8002*.sh t/t8012*.sh
After that, careful, manual inspection revealed that some of the test
scripts containing the needle `master` do not actually rely on a
specific default branch name: either they mention `master` only in a
comment, or they initialize that branch specificially, or they do not
actually refer to the current default branch. Therefore, the
aforementioned modification was undone in those test scripts thusly:

We excluded one set of test scripts in these commands, though: the range

default branch. Manual analysis revealed that only five of these tests
actually require a specific default branch name to pass; They were

The porcelain output of a failed `git-push` command is inconsistent for
different protocols. For example, the following `git-push` command
may fail due to the failure of the `pre-receive` hook.
git push --porcelain origin HEAD:refs/heads/master
For SSH protocol, the porcelain output does not end with a "Done"
message:
To <URL/of/upstream.git>
! HEAD:refs/heads/master [remote rejected] (pre-receive hook declined)
While for HTTP protocol, the porcelain output does end with a "Done"
message:
To <URL/of/upstream.git>
! HEAD:refs/heads/master [remote rejected] (pre-receive hook declined)
Done
The following code at the end of function `send_pack()` indicates that
`send_pack()` should not return an error if some references are rejected
in porcelain mode.
int send_pack(...)
... ...
if (args->porcelain)
return 0;
for (ref = remote_refs; ref; ref = ref->next) {
switch (ref->status) {
case REF_STATUS_NONE:
case REF_STATUS_UPTODATE:
case REF_STATUS_OK:
break;
default:
return -1;
}
}
return 0;
}
So if atomic push failed, must check the porcelain mode before return
an error. And `receive_status()` should not return an error for a
failed updated reference, because `send_pack()` will check them instead.

"git push" should stop from updating a branch that is checked out
when receive.denyCurrentBranch configuration is set, but it failed
to pay attention to checkouts in secondary worktrees. This has
been corrected.
* hv/receive-denycurrent-everywhere:
t2402: test worktree path when called in .git directory
receive.denyCurrentBranch: respect all worktrees
t5509: use a bare repository for test push target
get_main_worktree(): allow it to be called in the Git directory
The receive.denyCurrentBranch config option controls what happens if
you push to a branch that is checked out into a non-bare repository.
By default, it rejects it. It can be disabled via `ignore` or `warn`.
Another yet trickier option is `updateInstead`.
However, this setting was forgotten when the git worktree command was
introduced: only the main worktree's current branch is respected.
With this change, all worktrees are respected.
That change also leads to revealing another bug,
i.e. `receive.denyCurrentBranch = true` was ignored when pushing into a
non-bare repository's unborn current branch using ref namespaces. As
`is_ref_checked_out()` returns 0 which means `receive-pack` does not get
into conditional statement to switch `deny_current_branch` accordingly
(ignore, warn, refuse, unconfigured, updateInstead).
receive.denyCurrentBranch uses the function `refs_resolve_ref_unsafe()`
(called via `resolve_refdup()`) to resolve the symbolic ref HEAD, but
that function fails when HEAD does not point at a valid commit.
As we replace the call to `refs_resolve_ref_unsafe()` with
`find_shared_symref()`, which has no problem finding the worktree for a
given branch even if it is unborn yet, this bug is fixed at the same
time: receive.denyCurrentBranch now also handles worktrees with unborn
branches as intended even while using ref namespaces.

Since 8cbeba0632 (tests: define GIT_TEST_PROTOCOL_VERSION,
2019-02-25), it has been possible to run tests with a newer protocol
version by setting the GIT_TEST_PROTOCOL_VERSION envvar to a version
number. Tests that assume protocol v0 handle this by explicitly
setting
GIT_TEST_PROTOCOL_VERSION=
or similar constructs like 'test -z "$GIT_TEST_PROTOCOL_VERSION" ||
return 0' to declare that they only handle the default (v0) protocol.
The emphasis there is a bit off: it would be clearer to specify
GIT_TEST_PROTOCOL_VERSION=0 to inform the reader that these tests are
specifically testing and relying on details of protocol v0. Do so.
This way, a reader does not need to know what the default protocol
version is, and the tests can continue to work when the default
protocol version used by Git advances past v0.

Code clean-up and a fix for "git fetch" by an explicit object name
(as opposed to fetching refs by name).
* jk/fetch-reachability-error-fix:
fetch: do not consider peeled tags as advertised tips
remote.c: make singular free_ref() public
fetch: use free_refs()
pkt-line: prepare buffer before handling ERR packets
upload-pack: send ERR packet for non-tip objects
t5530: check protocol response for "not our ref"
t5516: drop ok=sigpipe from unreachable-want tests
The tests have been updated not to rely on the abbreviated option
names the parse-options API offers, to protect us from an
abbreviated form of an option that used to be unique within the
command getting non-unique when a new option that share the same
prefix is added.
* js/spell-out-options-in-tests:
tests: disallow the use of abbreviated options (by default)
tests (pack-objects): use the full, unabbreviated `--revs` option
tests (status): spell out the `--find-renames` option in full
tests (push): do not abbreviate the `--follow-tags` option
t5531: avoid using an abbreviated option
t7810: do not abbreviate `--no-exclude-standard` nor `--invert-match`
tests (rebase): spell out the `--force-rebase` option
tests (rebase): spell out the `--keep-empty` option
Our filter_refs() function accidentally considers the target of a peeled
tag to be advertised by the server, even though upload-pack on the
server side does not consider it so. This can result in the client
making a bogus fetch to the server, which will end with the server
complaining "not our ref". Whereas the correct behavior is for the
client to notice that the server will not allow the request and error
out immediately.
So as bugs go, this is not very serious (the outcome is the same either
way -- the fetch fails). But it's worth making the logic here correct
and consistent with other related cases (e.g., fetching an oid that the
server did not mention at all).
The crux of the issue comes from fdb69d33c4 (fetch-pack: always allow
fetching of literal SHA1s, 2017-05-15). After that, the strategy of
filter_refs() is basically:
- for each advertised ref, try to match it with a "sought" ref
provided by the user. Skip any malformed refs (which includes
peeled values like "refs/tags/foo^{}"), and place any unmatched
items onto the unmatched list.
- if there are unmatched sought refs, then put all of the advertised
tips into an oidset, including the unmatched ones.
- for each sought ref, see if it's in the oidset, in which case it's
legal for us to ask the server for it
The problem is in the second step. Our list of unmatched refs includes
the peeled refs, even though upload-pack does not allow them to be
directly fetched. So the simplest fix would be to exclude them during
that step.
However, we can observe that the unmatched list isn't used for anything
else, and is freed at the end. We can just free those malformed refs
immediately. That saves us having to check each ref a second time to see
if it's malformed.
Note that this code only kicks in when "strict" is in effect. I.e., if
we are using the v0 protocol and uploadpack.allowReachableSHA1InWant is
not in effect. With v2, all oids are allowed, and we do not bother
creating or consulting the oidset at all. To future-proof our test
against the upcoming GIT_TEST_PROTOCOL_VERSION flag, we'll manually mark
it as a v0-only test.

Since 2d103c31c2 (pack-protocol.txt: accept error packets in any
context, 2018-12-29), the pktline code will detect an ERR packet and die
automatically, saving the caller from dealing with it. But we do so too
early in the function, before we have terminated the buffer with a NUL.
As a result, passing the ERR message to die() may result in us printing
random cruft from a previous packet. This doesn't trigger memory tools
like ASan because we reuse the same buffer over and over (so the
contents are valid and initialized; they're just stale).
We can see demonstrate this by tightening the regex we use to match the
error message in t5516; without this patch, git-fetch will accidentally
print the capabilities from the (much longer) initial packet we
received.
By moving the ERR code later in the function we get a few other
benefits, too:
- we'll now chomp any newline sent by the other side (which is what we
want, since die() will add its own newline)
- we'll now mention the ERR packet with GIT_TRACE_PACKET

Commit bdb31eada7 (upload-pack: report "not our ref" to client,
2017-02-23) catches the case where a client asks for an object we don't
have, and issues a message that the client can show to the user (in
addition to dying and writing to stderr).
There's a similar case (with the same message) when the client asks for
an object which we _do_ have, but which isn't a ref tip (or isn't
reachable, when uploadpack.allowReachableSHA1InWant is true). Let's give
that one the same treatment, for the same reason (namely that it's more
informative to the client than just hanging up, since they won't see our
stderr over some protocols).
There are two tests here. We cover it most directly in t5530 by invoking
upload-pack, which matches the existing "not our ref" test.
But a more end-to-end check is that "git fetch" actually shows the
message to the client. We're already checking in t5516 that this case
fails, so we can just check stderr there, too. Note that even after we
started ignoring SIGPIPE in 8bf4becf0c, this could in theory still be
racy as described in that commit (because we die() on write failures
before pumping the connection for any ERR packets).
In practice this should be OK for this case. The server will not
actually check reachability until it has received our whole group of
"want" lines. And since we have no objects in the repository, we won't
send any "have" lines, meaning we're always waiting to read the server
response.
Note also that this case cannot happen in the v2 protocol, since it
allows any available object to be requested. However, we don't have to
take any steps to protect against the upcoming GIT_TEST_PROTOCOL_VERSION
in our tests:
- the tests in t5516 would already need to be skipped under v2, and
that is covered by ab0c5f5096 (tests: always test fetch of
unreachable with v0, 2019-02-25)
- the tests in t5530 invoke upload-pack directly, which will continue
to default to v0. Eventually we may have a test setting which uses
v2 even for bare upload-pack calls, but we can't override it here
until we know what the setting looks like.

Some of the functions in our test library check that they were invoked
properly with conditions like this:
test "$#" = 2 ||
error "bug in the test script: not 2 parameters to test-expect-success"
If this particular condition is triggered, then 'error' will abort the
whole test script with a bold red error message [1] right away.
However, under certain circumstances the test script will be aborted
completely silently, namely if:
- a similar condition in a test helper function like
'test_line_count' is triggered,
- which is invoked from the test script's "main" shell [2],
- and the test script is run manually (i.e. './t1234-foo.sh' as
opposed to 'make t1234-foo.sh' or 'make test') [3]
- and without the '--verbose' option,
because the error message is printed from within 'test_eval_', where
standard output is redirected either to /dev/null or to a log file.
The only indication that something is wrong is that not all tests in
the script are executed and at the end of the test script's output
there is no "# passed all N tests" message, which are subtle and can
easily go unnoticed, as I had to experience myself.
Send these "bug in the test script" error messages directly to the
test scripts standard error and thus to the terminal, so those bugs
will be much harder to overlook. Instead of updating all ~20 such
'error' calls with a redirection, let's add a BUG() function to
'test-lib.sh', wrapping an 'error' call with the proper redirection
and also including the common prefix of those error messages, and
convert all those call sites [4] to use this new BUG() function
instead.
[1] That particular error message from 'test_expect_success' is
printed in color only when running with or without '--verbose';
with '--tee' or '--verbose-log' the error is printed without
color, but it is printed to the terminal nonetheless.
[2] If such a condition is triggered in a subshell of a test, then
'error' won't be able to abort the whole test script, but only the
subshell, which in turn causes the test to fail in the usual way,
indicating loudly and clearly that something is wrong.
[3] Well, 'error' aborts the test script the same way when run
manually or by 'make' or 'prove', but both 'make' and 'prove' pay
attention to the test script's exit status, and even a silently
aborted test script would then trigger those tools' usual
noticable error messages.
[4] Strictly speaking, not all those 'error' calls need that
redirection to send their output to the terminal, see e.g.
'test_expect_success' in the opening example, but I think it's
better to be consistent.

intervene, so that a push that does not fast-forward (which is
checked after the switch statement in question) is still rejected.
But the handling of updateInstead incorrectly took immediate effect,
without giving other checks a chance to intervene.
Instead of calling update_worktree() that causes the side effect
immediately, just note the fact that we will need to call the
function later, and first give other checks a chance to reject the
request. After the update-hook gets a chance to reject the push
(which happens as the last step in a series of checks), call
update_worktree() when we earlier detected the need to.

The rules used by "git push" and "git fetch" to determine if a ref
can or cannot be updated were inconsistent; specifically, fetching
to update existing tags were allowed even though tags are supposed
to be unmoving anchoring points. "git fetch" was taught to forbid
updates to existing tags without the "--force" option.
* ab/fetch-tags-noclobber:
fetch: stop clobbering existing tags without --force
fetch: document local ref updates with/without --force
push doc: correct lies about how push refspecs work
push doc: move mention of "tag <tag>" later in the prose
push doc: remove confusing mention of remote merger
fetch tests: add a test for clobbering tag behavior
push tests: use spaces in interpolated string
push tests: make use of unused $1 in test description
fetch: change "branch" to "reference" in --force -h output
Change "fetch" to treat "+" in refspecs (aka --force) to mean we
should clobber a local tag of the same name.
This changes the long-standing behavior of "fetch" added in
853a3697dc ("[PATCH] Multi-head fetch.", 2005-08-20). Before this
change, all tag fetches effectively had --force enabled. See the
git-fetch-script code in fast_forward_local() with the comment:
> Tags need not be pointing at commits so there is no way to
> guarantee "fast-forward" anyway.
That commit and the rest of the history of "fetch" shows that the
"+" (--force) part of refpecs was only conceived for branch updates,
while tags have accepted any changes from upstream unconditionally and
clobbered the local tag object. Changing this behavior has been
discussed as early as 2011[1].
The current behavior doesn't make sense to me, it easily results in
local tags accidentally being clobbered. We could namespace our tags
per-remote and not locally populate refs/tags/*, but as with my
97716d217c ("fetch: add a --prune-tags option and fetch.pruneTags
config", 2018-02-09) it's easier to work around the current
implementation than to fix the root cause.
So this change implements suggestion #1 from Jeff's 2011 E-Mail[1],
"fetch" now only clobbers the tag if either "+" is provided as part of
the refspec, or if "--force" is provided on the command-line.
This also makes it nicely symmetrical with how "tag" itself works when
creating tags. I.e. we refuse to clobber any existing tags unless
"--force" is supplied. Now we can refuse all such clobbering, whether
it would happen by clobbering a local tag with "tag", or by fetching
it from the remote with "fetch".
Ref updates outside refs/{tags,heads/* are still still not symmetrical
with how "git push" works, as discussed in the recently changed
pull-fetch-param.txt documentation. This change brings the two
divergent behaviors more into line with one another. I don't think
there's any reason "fetch" couldn't fully converge with the behavior
used by "push", but that's a topic for another change.
One of the tests added in 31b808a032 ("clone --single: limit the fetch
refspec to fetched branch", 2012-09-20) is being changed to use
--force where a clone would clobber a tag. This changes nothing about
the existing behavior of the test.

The quoted -m'msg' option would mean the same as -mmsg when passed
through the test_force_push_tag helper. Let's instead use a string
with spaces in it, to have a working example in case we need to pass
other whitespace-delimited arguments to git-tag.

Change the test that asserts that lightweight tags can only be
clobbered by a force-push to check do the same tests for annotated
tags.
There used to be less exhaustive tests for this with the code added in
40eff17999 ("push: require force for annotated tags", 2012-11-29), but
Junio removed them in 256b9d70a4 ("push: fix "refs/tags/ hierarchy
cannot be updated without --force"", 2013-01-16) while fixing some of
the behavior around tag pushing.
That change left us without any coverage asserting that pushing and
clobbering annotated tags worked as intended. There was no reason to
suspect that the receive machinery wouldn't behave the same way with
annotated tags, but now we know for sure.

Improve the tests added in dbfeddb12e ("push: require force for refs
under refs/tags/", 2012-11-29) to assert that the same behavior
applies various other combinations of command-line option and
refspecs.
Supplying either "+" in refspec or "--force" is sufficient to clobber
the reference. With --no-force we still pay attention to "+" in the
refspec, and vice-versa with clobbering kicking in if there's no "+"
in the refspec but "+" is given.
This is consistent with how refspecs work for branches, where either
"+" or "--force" will enable clobbering, with neither taking priority
over the other.

Fix a logic error that's been here since this test was added in
dbfeddb12e ("push: require force for refs under refs/tags/",
2012-11-29).
The intent of this test is to force-create a new tag pointing to
HEAD~, and then assert that pushing it doesn't work without --force.
Instead, the code was not creating a new tag at all, and then failing
to push the previous tag for the unrelated reason of providing a
refspec that doesn't make any sense.

Remove an invocation of 'git push' that's exactly the same as the one
on the preceding line. This was seemingly added by mistake in
dbfeddb12e ("push: require force for refs under refs/tags/",
2012-11-29) and doesn't affect the result of the test, the second
"push" was a no-op as there was nothing new to push.

When v2.18.0-rc0~10^2~1 (refspec: consolidate ref-prefix generation
logic, 2018-05-16) factored out the ref-prefix generation code for
reuse, it left out the 'if (!item->exact_sha1)' test in the original
ref-prefix generation code. As a result, fetches by SHA-1 generate
ref-prefixes as though the SHA-1 being fetched were an abbreviated ref
name:
$ GIT_TRACE_PACKET=1 bin-wrappers/git -c protocol.version=2 \
fetch origin 12039e008f
[...]
packet: fetch> ref-prefix 12039e008f
packet: fetch> ref-prefix refs/12039e008f9a4e3394f3f94f8ea897785cb09448
packet: fetch> ref-prefix refs/tags/12039e008f9a4e3394f3f94f8ea897785cb09448
packet: fetch> ref-prefix refs/heads/12039e008f9a4e3394f3f94f8ea897785cb09448
packet: fetch> ref-prefix refs/remotes/12039e008f9a4e3394f3f94f8ea897785cb09448
packet: fetch> ref-prefix refs/remotes/12039e008f9a4e3394f3f94f8ea897785cb09448/HEAD
packet: fetch> 0000
If there is another ref name on the command line or the object being
fetched is already available locally, then that's mostly harmless.
But otherwise, we error out with
fatal: no matching remote head
since the server did not send any refs we are interested in. Filter
out the exact_sha1 refspecs to avoid this.
This patch adds a test to check this behavior that notices another
behavior difference between protocol v0 and v2 in the process. Add a
NEEDSWORK comment to clear it up.

Many tests hardcode the raw object names, which would change once
we migrate away from SHA-1. While some of them must test against
exact object names, most of them do not have to use hardcoded
constants in the test. The latter kind of tests have been updated
to test the moral equivalent of the original without hardcoding the
actual object names.

In a while-at-it cleanup replacing a 'cd dir && <...> && cd ..' with a
subshell, commit 28391a80a9 (receive-pack: allow deletion of corrupt
refs, 2007-11-29) also moved the assignment of the $old_commit
variable to that subshell. This variable, however, is used outside of
that subshell as a parameter of check_push_result(), to check that a
ref still points to the commit where it is supposed to. With the
variable remaining unset outside the subshell check_push_result()
doesn't perform that check at all.
Use 'git -C <dir> cmd...', so we don't need to change directory, and
thus don't need the subshell either when setting $old_commit.
Furthermore, change check_push_result() to require at least three
parameters (the repo, the oid, and at least one ref), so it will catch
similar issues earlier should they ever arise.
