91229834c2 blame: fix alignment with --abbrev=40
The blame command internally adds 1 to any requested sha1
abbreviation length, and then subtracts it when outputting a
boundary commit. This lets regular and boundary sha1s line
up visually, but it misses one corner case.

When the requested length is 40, we bump the value to 41.
But since we only have 40 characters, that's all we can show
(fortunately the truncation is done by a printf precision
field, so it never tries to read past the end of the
buffer).  So a normal sha1 shows 40 hex characters, and a
boundary sha1 shows "^" plus 40 hex characters. The result
is misaligned.

The "-l" option to show long sha1s gets around this by
skipping the "abbrev" variable entirely and just always
using GIT_SHA1_HEXSZ.  This avoids the "+1" issue, but it
does mean that boundary commits only have 39 characters
printed.  This is somewhat odd, but it does look good
visually: the results are aligned and left-justified. The
alternative would be to allocate an extra column that would
contain either an extra space or the "^" boundary marker.

As this is by definition the human-readable view, it's
probably not that big a deal either way (and of course
--porcelain, etc, correctly produce correct 40-hex sha1s).
But for consistency, this patch teaches --abbrev=40 to
produce the same output as "-l" (always left-aligned, with
40-hex for normal sha1s, and "^" plus 39-hex for
boundaries).

fdf4f6c79b t6026: clarify the point of "kill $(cat sleep.pid)"
We lengthened the time the leftover process sleeps in the previous
commit to make sure it will be there while 'git merge' runs and
finishes.  It therefore needs to be killed before leaving the test.
And it needs to be killed even when 'git merge' fails, so it has to
be triggered via test_when_finished mechanism.

Explain all that in a large comment, and move the use site of
test_when_finished to immediately before 'git merge' invocation,
where the process is spawned.

a7d6bcc329 t6026: ensure that long-running script really is
When making sure that background tasks are cleaned up in 5babb5b
(t6026-merge-attr: clean up background process at end of test case,
2016-09-07), we considered to let the background task sleep longer, just
to be certain that it will still be running when we want to kill it
after the test.

Sadly, the assumption appears not to hold true that the test case passes
quickly enough to kill the background task within a second.

Simply increase it to an hour. No system can be possibly slow enough to
make above-mentioned assumption incorrect.

This reverts commit 734fde2d71.

The point of the test is that the stray process was still running
when 'git merge' did its thing through its completion, so a failure
to "kill" it means we didn't give a condition to the test to trigger
a possible future breakage.  Appending "|| :" to the "kill" is
sweeping a test-bug under the rug.

these symlinks have been broken for test helpers -- they point to the
old locations in the root of the build directory.  Fix that by teaching
the code for creating the links about the new location of the binaries,
and do the same in the wrapper script to allow it to find its payload.

614fe01521 test-lib: bail out when "-v" used under "prove"
When there is a TAP harness consuming the output of our test
scripts, the "--verbose" breaks the output by mingling
test command output with TAP. Because the TAP::Harness
module used by "prove" is fairly lenient, this _usually_
works, but it violates the spec, and things get very
confusing if the commands happen to output a line that looks
like TAP (e.g., the word "ok" on its own line).

Let's detect this situation and complain. Just calling
error() isn't great, though; prove will tell us that the
script failed, but the message doesn't make it through to
the user. Instead, we can use the special TAP signal "Bail
out!". This not only shows the message to the user, but
instructs the harness to stop running the tests entirely.
This is exactly what we want here, as the problem is in the
command-line options, and every test script would produce
the same error.

The result looks like this (the first "Bailout called" line
is in red if prove uses color on your terminal):

 $ make GIT_TEST_OPTS='--verbose --tee'
 rm -f -r 'test-results'
 *** prove ***
 Bailout called.  Further testing stopped:  verbose mode forbidden under TAP harness; try --verbose-log
 FAILED--Further testing stopped: verbose mode forbidden under TAP harness; try --verbose-log

452320f1f5 test-lib: add --verbose-log option
The "--verbose" option redirects output from arbitrary
test commands to stdout. This is useful for examining the
output manually, like:

  ./t5547-push-quarantine.sh -v | less

But it also means that the output is intermingled with the
TAP directives, which can confuse a TAP parser like "prove".
This has always been a potential problem, but became an
issue recently when one test happened to output the word
"ok" on a line by itself, which prove interprets as a test
success:

  $ prove t5547-push-quarantine.sh :: -v
  t5547-push-quarantine.sh .. 1/? To dest.git
   * [new branch]      HEAD -> master

  Result: FAIL

One answer is "if it hurts, don't do it", but that's not
quite the whole story. The Travis tests use "--verbose
--tee" so that they can get the benefit of prove's parallel
options, along with a verbose log in case there is a
failure. We just need the verbose output to go to the log,
but keep stdout clean.

Getting this right turns out to be surprisingly difficult.
Here's the progression of alternatives I considered:

 1. Add an option to write verbose output to stderr. This is
    hard to capture, though, because we want each test to
    have its own log (because they're all run in parallel
    and the jumbled output would be useless).

 2. Add an option to write verbose output to a file in
    test-results. This works, but the log is missing all of
    the non-verbose output, which gives context.

 3. Like (2), but teach say_color() to additionally output
    to the log. This mostly works, but misses any output
    that happens outside of the say() functions (which isn't
    a lot, but is a potential maintenance headache).

 4. Like (2), but make the log file the same as the "--tee"
    file. That almost works, but now we have two processes
    opening the same file. That gives us two separate
    descriptors, each with their own idea of the current
    position. They'll each start writing at offset 0, and
    overwrite each other's data.

 5. Like (4), but in each case open the file for appending.
    That atomically positions each write at the end of the
    file.

    It's possible we may still get sheared writes between
    the two processes, but this is already the case when
    writing to stdout. It's not a problem in practice
    because the test harness generally waits for snippets to
    finish before writing the TAP output.

    We can ignore buffering issues with tee, because POSIX
    mandates that it does not buffer. Likewise, POSIX
    specifies "tee -a", so it should be available
    everywhere.

This patch implements option (5), which seems to work well
in practice.

An "add --chmod=+x" test recently added by 610d55af0f ("add: modify

time the execution reached this new test.

The removal with "git reset --hard" however happened in a pair of
earlier tests, both of which are protected by POSIXPERM,SANITY
prerequisites.  Platforms and test environments that lacked these
would have seen xfoo3 as a leftover symbolic link that points at
somewhere else at this point of the sequence, and the chmod test
would have given a wrong result.

5827a03545 fetch: use "quick" has_sha1_file for tag following
When we auto-follow tags in a fetch, we look at all of the
tags advertised by the remote and fetch ones where we don't
already have the tag, but we do have the object it peels to.
This involves a lot of calls to has_sha1_file(), some of
which we can reasonably expect to fail. Since 45e8a74
(has_sha1_file: re-check pack directory before giving up,
2013-08-30), this may cause many calls to
reprepare_packed_git(), which is potentially expensive.

This has gone unnoticed for several years because it
requires a fairly unique setup to matter:

  1. You need to have a lot of packs on the client side to
     make reprepare_packed_git() expensive (the most
     expensive part is finding duplicates in an unsorted
     list, which is currently quadratic).

  2. You need a large number of tag refs on the server side
     that are candidates for auto-following (i.e., that the
     client doesn't have). Each one triggers a re-read of
     the pack directory.

  3. Under normal circumstances, the client would
     auto-follow those tags and after one large fetch, (2)
     would no longer be true. But if those tags point to
     history which is disconnected from what the client
     otherwise fetches, then it will never auto-follow, and
     those candidates will impact it on every fetch.

So when all three are true, each fetch pays an extra
O(nr_tags * nr_packs^2) cost, mostly in string comparisons
on the pack names. This was exacerbated by 47bf4b0
(prepare_packed_git_one: refactor duplicate-pack check,
2014-06-30) which uses a slightly more expensive string
check, under the assumption that the duplicate check doesn't
happen very often (and it shouldn't; the real problem here
is how often we are calling reprepare_packed_git()).

This patch teaches fetch to use HAS_SHA1_QUICK to sacrifice
accuracy for speed, in cases where we might be racy with a
simultaneous repack. This is similar to the fix in 0eeb077
(index-pack: avoid excessive re-reading of pack directory,
2015-06-09). As with that case, it's OK for has_sha1_file()
occasionally say "no I don't have it" when we do, because
the worst case is not a corruption, but simply that we may
fail to auto-follow a tag that points to it.

Here are results from the included perf script, which sets
up a situation similar to the one described above:

Test            HEAD^               HEAD

e3fdbcc8e1 parse_mailboxes: accept extra text after <...> address
The test introduced in this commit succeeds without the patch to Git.pm
if Mail::Address is installed, but fails otherwise because our in-house
parser does not accept any text after the email address. They succeed
both with and without Mail::Address after this commit.

Mail::Address accepts extra text and considers it as part of the name,
iff the address is surrounded with <...>. The implementation mimics
this behavior as closely as possible.

This mostly restores the behavior we had before b1c8a11 (send-email:

4f21454b55 merge-base: handle --fork-point without reflog
The --fork-point option looks in the reflog to try to find
where a derived branch forked from a base branch. However,
if the reflog for the base branch is totally empty (as it
commonly is right after cloning, which does not write a

any entries, and we will come up with no merge base, even
though there may be one with the current tip of the base.

3f7bd767ed files_read_raw_ref: avoid infinite loop on broken symlinks
Our ref resolution first runs lstat() on any path we try to
look up, because we want to treat symlinks specially (by
resolving them manually and considering them symrefs). But
if the results of `readlink` do _not_ look like a ref, we
fall through to treating it like a normal file, and just
read the contents of the linked path.

Since fcb7c76 (resolve_ref_unsafe(): close race condition
reading loose refs, 2013-06-19), that "normal file" code
path will stat() the file and if we see ENOENT, will jump
back to the lstat(), thinking we've seen inconsistent
results between the two calls. But for a symbolic ref, this
isn't a race: the lstat() found the symlink, and the stat()
is looking at the path it points to. We end up in an
infinite loop calling lstat() and stat().

We can fix this by avoiding the retry-on-inconsistent jump
when we know that we found a symlink. While we're at it,
let's add a comment explaining why the symlink case gets to
this code in the first place; without that, it is not
obvious that the correct solution isn't to avoid the stat()
code path entirely.

Some codepaths in "git diff" used regexec(3) on a buffer that was
mmap(2)ed, which may not have a terminating NUL, leading to a read
beyond the end of the mapped region.  This was fixed by introducing
a regexec_buf() helper that takes a <ptr,len> pair with REG_STARTEND

f357e5de31 mailinfo: unescape quoted-pair in header fields
rfc2822 has provisions for quoted strings in structured header fields,
but also allows for escaping these with so-called quoted-pairs.

The only thing git currently does is removing exterior quotes, but
quotes within are left alone.

Remove exterior quotes and remove escape characters so that they don't

ee4d679f57 t5100-mailinfo: replace common path prefix with variable
Many tests need to store data in a file, and repeat the same pattern to
refer to that path:

    "$TEST_DIRECTORY"/t5100/

Create a variable that contains this path, and use that instead.

While we're making this change, make sure the quotes are not just around
the variable, but around the entire string to not give the impression
we want shell splitting to affect the other variables.

40e0dc17ce t3700-add: do not check working tree file mode without POSIXPERM
A recently introduced test checks the result of 'git status' after
setting the executable bit on a file. This check does not yield the
expected result when the filesystem does not support the executable
bit.

What we care about is that a file added with "--chmod=+x" has
executable bit in the index and that "--chmod=+x" (or any other
options for that matter) does not muck with working tree files.
The former is tested by other existing tests, so let's check the
latter more explicitly and only under POSIXPERM prerequisite.

b7d36ffca0 regex: use regexec_buf()
The new regexec_buf() function operates on buffers with an explicitly
specified length, rather than NUL-terminated strings.

We need to use this function whenever the buffer we want to pass to
regexec(3) may have been mmap(2)ed (and is hence not NUL-terminated).

Note: the original motivation for this patch was to fix a bug where
`git diff -G <regex>` would crash. This patch converts more callers,
though, some of which allocated to construct NUL-terminated strings,
or worse, modified buffers to temporarily insert NULs while calling
regexec(3).  By converting them to use regexec_buf(), the code has
become much cleaner.

db5dfa3314 regex: -G<pattern> feeds a non NUL-terminated string to regexec() and fails
When our pickaxe code feeds file contents to regexec(), it implicitly
assumes that the file contents are read into implicitly NUL-terminated
buffers (i.e. that we overallocate by 1, appending a single '\0').

This is not so.

In particular when the file contents are simply mmap()ed, we can be
virtually certain that the buffer is preceding uninitialized bytes, or
invalid pages.

Note that the test we add here is known to be flakey: we simply cannot
know whether the byte following the mmap()ed ones is a NUL or not.

Typically, on Linux the test passes. On Windows, it fails virtually
every time due to an access violation (that's a segmentation fault for
you Unix-y people out there). And Windows would be correct: the
regexec() call wants to operate on a regular, NUL-terminated string,
there is no NUL in the mmap()ed memory range, and it is undefined
whether the next byte is even legal to access.

When run with --valgrind it demonstrates quite clearly the breakage, of
course.

Being marked with `test_expect_failure`, this test will sometimes be
declare "TODO fixed", even if it only passes by mistake.

This test case represents a Minimal, Complete and Verifiable Example of
a breakage reported by Chris Sidi.

b07ad46432 t3700-add: create subdirectory gently
The subdirectory 'sub' is created early in the test file. Later, a test
case removes it during its clean-up actions. However, this test case is
protected by POSIXPERM. Consequently, 'sub' remains when the POSIXPERM
prerequisite is not satisfied. Later, a recently introduced test case
creates 'sub' again. Use -p with mkdir so that it does not fail if 'sub'
already exists.
