* path helpers: move git_mkstemp* to wrapper.cJonathan Nieder2010-11-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | git_mkstemp_mode and related functions do not require access to specialized git machinery, unlike some other functions from path.c (like set_shared_perm()). Move them to wrapper.c where the wrapper xmkstemp_mode is defined. This eliminates a dependency of wrapper.o on environment.o via path.o. With typical linkers (e.g., gcc), that dependency makes programs that use functions from wrapper.o and not environment.o or path.o larger than they need to be.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When reaching the end of git_mkstemps_mode, at least one call to open() has been done, and errno has been set accordingly. Setting errno is therefore not necessary, and actually harmfull since callers can't distinguish e.g. permanent failure from ENOENT, which can just mean that we need to create the containing directory.

* | setenv(GIT_DIR) clean-upRené Scharfe2010-02-06
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch converts the setenv() calls in path.c and setup.c. After the call, git grep with a pager works again in bare repos. It leaves the setenv(GIT_DIR_ENVIRONMENT, ...) calls in git.c alone, as they respond to command line switches that emulate the effect of setting the environment variable directly. The remaining site in environment.c is in set_git_dir() and is left alone, too, of course. Finally, builtin-init-db.c is left changed because the repo is still being carefully constructed when the environment variable is set.

* ignore duplicated slashes in make_relative_path()Junio C Hamano2010-01-22

* | http-backend: Protect GIT_PROJECT_ROOT from /../ requestsShawn O. Pearce2009-11-09
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Eons ago HPA taught git-daemon how to protect itself from /../ attacks, which Junio brought back into service in d79374c7b58d ("daemon.c and path.enter_repo(): revamp path validation"). I did not carry this into git-http-backend as originally we relied only upon PATH_TRANSLATED, and assumed the HTTP server had done its access control checks to validate the resolved path was within a directory permitting access from the remote client. This would usually be sufficient to protect a server from requests for its /etc/passwd file by http://host/smart/../etc/passwd sorts of URLs. However in 917adc036086 Mark Lodato added GIT_PROJECT_ROOT as an additional method of configuring the CGI. When this environment variable is used the web server does not generate the final access path and therefore may blindly pass through "/../etc/passwd" in PATH_INFO under the assumption that "/../" might have special meaning to the invoked CGI. Instead of permitting these sorts of malformed path requests, we now reject them back at the client, with an error message for the server log. This matches git-daemon behavior.

* set_shared_perm(): sometimes we know what the final mode bits should look likeJunio C Hamano2009-03-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | adjust_shared_perm() first obtains the mode bits from lstat(2), expecting to find what the result of applying user's umask is, and then tweaks it as necessary. When the file to be adjusted is created with mkstemp(3), however, the mode thusly obtained does not have anything to do with user's umask, and we would need to start from 0444 in such a case and there is no point running lstat(2) for such a path. This introduces a new API set_shared_perm() to bypass the lstat(2) and instead force setting the mode bits to the desired value directly. adjust_shared_perm() becomes a thin wrapper to the function.

* "core.sharedrepository = 0mode" should set, not loosenJunio C Hamano2009-03-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes the behaviour of octal notation to how it is defined in the documentation, while keeping the traditional "loosen only" semantics intact for "group" and "everybody". Three main points of this patch are: - For an explicit octal notation, the internal shared_repository variable is set to a negative value, so that we can tell "group" (which is to "OR" in 0660) and 0660 (which is to "SET" to 0660); - git-init did not set shared_repository variable early enough to affect the initial creation of many files, notably copied templates and the configuration. We set it very early when a command-line option specifies a custom value. - Many codepaths create files inside $GIT_DIR by various ways that all involve mkstemp(), and then call move_temp_to_file() to rename it to its final destination. We can add adjust_shared_perm() call here; for the traditional "loosen-only", this would be a no-op for many codepaths because the mode is already loose enough, but with the new behaviour it makes a difference.

* Introduce the function strip_path_suffix()Johannes Schindelin2009-02-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The function strip_path_suffix() will try to strip a given suffix from a given path. The suffix must start at a directory boundary (i.e. "core" is not a path suffix of "libexec/git-core", but "git-core" is). Arbitrary runs of directory separators ("slashes") are assumed identical. Example: strip_path_suffix("C:\\msysgit/\\libexec\\git-core", "libexec///git-core", &prefix) will set prefix to "C:\\msysgit" and return 0.

The test cases in t0060 are adjusted in two regards: - normalize_path_copy() more often leaves a trailing slash in the result. This has no negative side effects because the new user of this function, longest_ancester_length(), already accounts for this behavior. - The function can fail. The tests uncover a flaw in normalize_path_copy(): If there are sufficiently many '..' path components so that the root is reached, such as in "/d1/s1/../../d2", then the leading slash was lost. This manifested itself that (assuming there is a repository at /tmp/foo) $ git add /d1/../tmp/foo/some-file reported 'pathspec is outside repository'. This is now fixed. Moreover, the test case descriptions of t0060 now include the test data and expected outcome. Signed-off-by: Johannes Sixt <j6t@kdbg.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Using git with GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES crashed on Windows due to a failed assertion in normalize_absolute_path(): This function expects absolute paths to start with a slash, while on Windows they can start with a drive letter or a backslash. This fixes it by using the alternative, normalize_path_copy() instead, which can handle Windows-style paths just fine. Secondly, the portability macro PATH_SEP is used instead of expecting colons to be used as path list delimiter. The test script t1504 is also changed to help MSYS's bash recognize some program arguments as path list. (MSYS's bash must translate POSIX-style path lists to Windows-style path lists, and the heuristic did not catch some cases.)

(umask 002 did not exhibit this behaviour since pre-chmod() check in adjust_shared_perm() fails in that case.) The call to adjust_shared_perm() should only loosen the permission. If the user has umask like 022 or 002 that allow others to read, the resulting files should be made readable and writable by group, without restricting the readability by others.

There is some IO for me - probably due to more-or-less random flushing of the journal - so the variation is bigger than I'd like, but whatever: Before: real 0m8.135s real 0m7.933s real 0m8.080s real 0m7.954s real 0m7.949s real 0m8.112s real 0m7.934s real 0m8.059s real 0m7.979s real 0m8.038s After: real 0m7.685s real 0m7.968s real 0m7.703s real 0m7.850s real 0m7.995s real 0m7.817s real 0m7.963s real 0m7.955s real 0m7.848s real 0m7.969s Now, going by "best of ten" (on the assumption that the longer numbers are all due to IO), I'm saying a 7.933s -> 7.685s reduction, and it does seem to be outside of the noise (ie the "after" case never broke 8s, while the "before" case did so half the time). So looks like about 3% to me. Doing it for a slightly smaller test-case (just the "arch" subdirectory) gets more stable numbers probably due to not filling the journal with metadata updates, so we have: Before: real 0m1.633s real 0m1.633s real 0m1.633s real 0m1.632s real 0m1.632s real 0m1.630s real 0m1.634s real 0m1.631s real 0m1.632s real 0m1.632s After: real 0m1.610s real 0m1.609s real 0m1.610s real 0m1.608s real 0m1.607s real 0m1.610s real 0m1.609s real 0m1.611s real 0m1.608s real 0m1.611s where I'ld just take the averages and say 1.632 vs 1.610, which is just over 1% peformance improvement. So it's not in the noise, but it's not as big as I initially thought and measured. (That said, it obviously depends on how deep the working directory path is too, and whether it is behind NFS or something else that might need to cause more work to look up).

|/ | | | | | | | | | Particularly for the "alternates" file, if one will be created, we want a path that doesn't depend on the current directory, but we want to retain any symlinks in the path as given and any in the user's view of the current directory when the path was given.

| | | | | | | | | | xread() and xwrite() return ssize_t values as their native POSIX counterparts read(2) and write(2). To be consistent, read_in_full() and write_in_full() should also return ssize_t values. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
* Make core.sharedRepository more genericHeikki Orsila2008-04-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | git init --shared=0xxx, where '0xxx' is an octal number, will create a repository with file modes set to '0xxx'. Users with a safe umask value (0077) can use this option to force file modes. For example, '0640' is a group-readable but not group-writable regardless of user's umask value. Values compatible with old Git versions are written as they were before, for compatibility reasons. That is, "1" for "group" and "2" for "everybody". "git config core.sharedRepository 0xxx" is also handled. Signed-off-by: Heikki Orsila <heikki.orsila@iki.fi> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
