remote-curl: make --force-with-lease work with non-ASCII ref names
When we invoke a remote transport helper and pass an option with an
argument, we quote the argument as a C-style string if necessary. This
is the case for the cas option, which implements the --force-with-lease
command-line flag, when we're passing a non-ASCII refname.
However, the remote curl helper isn't designed to parse such an
argument, meaning that if we try to use --force-with-lease with an HTTP
push and a non-ASCII refname, we get an error like this:
Note the double quote, which get_oid has reminded us is not valid in an
hex object ID.
Even if we had been able to parse it, we would send the wrong data to
the server: we'd send an escaped ref, which would not behave as the user
wanted and might accidentally result in updating or deleting a ref we
hadn't intended.
Since we need to expect a quoted C-style string here, just check if the
first argument is a double quote, and if so, unquote it. Note that if
the refname contains a double quote, then we will have double-quoted it
already, so there is no ambiguity.
We test for this case only in the smart protocol, since the DAV-based
protocol is not capable of handling this capability. We use UTF-8
because this is nicer in our tests and friendlier to Windows, but the
code should work for all non-ASCII refs.
While we're at it, since the name of the option is now well established

constant.

verify_repository_format(): complain about new extensions in v0 repo
We made the mistake in the past of respecting extensions.* even when the
repository format version was set to 0. This is bad because forgetting
to bump the repository version means that older versions of Git (which
do not know about our extensions) won't complain. I.e., it's not a
problem in itself, but it means your repository is in a state which does
not give you the protection you think you're getting from older
versions.
For compatibility reasons, we are stuck with that decision for existing
extensions. However, we'd prefer not to extend the damage further. We
can do that by catching any newly-added extensions and complaining about
the repository format.
Note that this is a pretty heavy hammer: we'll refuse to work with the
repository at all. A lesser option would be to ignore (possibly with a
warning) any new extensions. But because of the way the extensions are
handled, that puts the burden on each new extension that is added to
remember to "undo" itself (because they are handled before we know
for sure whether we are in a v1 repo or not, since we don't insist on a
particular ordering of config entries).
So one option would be to rewrite that handling to record any new
extensions (and their values) during the config parse, and then only
after proceed to handle new ones only if we're in a v1 repository. But
I'm not sure if it's worth the trouble:
- ignoring extensions is likely to end up with broken results anyway
(e.g., ignoring a proposed objectformat extension means parsing any
object data is likely to encounter errors)
- this is a sign that whatever tool wrote the extension field is
broken. We may be better off notifying immediately and forcefully so
that such tools don't even appear to work accidentally.
The only downside is that fixing the situation is a little tricky,
because programs like "git config" won't want to work with the
repository. But:

The core.repositoryFormatVersion field was introduced in ab9cb76f661
(Repository format version check., 2005-11-25), providing a welcome
bit of forward compatibility, thanks to some welcome analysis by
Martin Atukunda. The semantics are simple: a repository with
core.repositoryFormatVersion set to 0 should be comprehensible by all
Git implementations in active use; and Git implementations should
error out early instead of trying to act on Git repositories with
higher core.repositoryFormatVersion values representing new formats
that they do not understand.
A new repository format did not need to be defined until 00a09d57eb8
(introduce "extensions" form of core.repositoryformatversion,
2015-06-23). This provided a finer-grained extension mechanism for
Git repositories. In a repository with core.repositoryFormatVersion
set to 1, Git implementations can act on "extensions.*" settings that
modify how a repository is interpreted. In repository format version
1, unrecognized extensions settings cause Git to error out.
What happens if a user sets an extension setting but forgets to
increase the repository format version to 1? The extension settings
were still recognized in that case; worse, unrecognized extensions
settings do *not* cause Git to error out. So combining repository
format version 0 with extensions settings produces in some sense the
worst of both worlds.
To improve that situation, since 14c7fa269e4
(check_repository_format_gently(): refuse extensions for old
repositories, 2020-06-05) Git instead ignores extensions in v0 mode.
This way, v0 repositories get the historical (pre-2015) behavior and
maintain compatibility with Git implementations that do not know about
the v1 format. Unfortunately, users had been using this sort of
configuration and this behavior change came to many as a surprise:
- users of "git config --worktree" that had followed its advice
to enable extensions.worktreeConfig (without also increasing the
repository format version) would find their worktree configuration
no longer taking effect
- tools such as copybara[*] that had set extensions.partialClone in
existing repositories (without also increasing the repository format
version) would find that setting no longer taking effect
The behavior introduced in 14c7fa269e4 might be a good behavior if we
were traveling back in time to 2015, but we're far too late. For some
reason I thought that it was what had been originally implemented and
that it had regressed. Apologies for not doing my research when 14c7fa269e4 was under development.
Let's return to the behavior we've had since 2015: always act on
extensions.* settings, regardless of repository format version. While
we're here, include some tests to describe the effect on the "upgrade
repository version" code path.

test-lib: set deterministic default author/committer date
We always set the name and email for committer and author idents to make
the test suite more deterministic, but not timestamps. Many scripts use
test_tick to get consistent and sensibly incrementing timestamps as they
create commits. But other scripts don't particularly care about the
timestamp, and are happy to use whatever the current system time is.
This non-determinism can be annoying:
- when debugging a test, comparing results between two runs can be
difficult, because the commit ids change
- this can sometimes cause tests to be racy. E.g., traversal order
depends on timestamp order. Even in a well-ordered set of commands,
because our timestamp granularity is one second, two commits might
sometimes have the same timestamp and sometimes differ.
Let's set a default timestamp for all scripts to use. Any that use
test_tick already will be unaffected (because their first test_tick call
will overwrite our default), but it will make things a bit more
deterministic for those that don't.
We should be able to choose any time we want here. I picked this one
because:
- it differs from the initial test_tick default, which may make it
easier to distinguish when debugging tests. I picked "April 1st
13:14:15" in the hope that it might stand out.
- it's slightly before the test_tick default. Some tests create some
commits before the first call to test_tick, so using an older
timestamps for those makes sense chronologically. Note that this
isn't how things currently work (where system times are usually more
recent than test_tick), but that also allows us to flush out a few
hidden timestamp dependencies (like the one recently fixed in
t5539).
- we could likewise pick any timezone we want. Choosing +0000 would
have required fixing up fewer tests, but we're more likely to turn
up interesting cases by not matching $TZ exactly. And since
test_tick already checks "-0700", let's try something in the "+"
zone range for variety.
It's possible that the non-deterministic times could help flush out bugs
(e.g., if something broke when the clock flipped over to 2021, our test
suite would let us know). But historically that hasn't been the case;
all time-dependent outcomes we've seen turned out to be accidentally
flaky tests (which we fixed by using test_tick). If we do want to cover
handling the current time, we should dedicate one script to doing so,
and have it unset GIT_COMMITTER_DATE explicitly.

* f0d7bd5 import for git svn
Each commit we make with "git commit" is paired with one from "git svn
set-tree", with the latter as a merge of the first and its grandparent.
Later, t9100.17 wants to check that "git svn fetch" gets the same trees.
And it does, but just one copy of each. So it uses rev-list to get the
tree of each commit and pipes it to "uniq" to drop the duplicates. Our
input isn't sorted, but it will find adjacent duplicates. This works
reliably because the order of commits from rev-list always shows the
duplicates next to each other. For any one of those merges, we could
choose to show its duplicate or the grandparent first. But barring
clocks running backwards, the duplicate will always have a time equal to
or greater than the grandparent. Even if equal, we break ties by showing
the first-parent first, so the duplicates remain adjacent.
But this would break if the timestamps stopped moving in chronological
order. Normally we would rely on test_tick for this, but we have _two_
sources of time here:
- "git commit" creates one commit based on GIT_COMMITTER_DATE (which
respects test_tick)
- the "svn set-tree" one is based on subversion, which does not have
an easy way to specify a timestamp
So using test_tick actually breaks the test, because now the duplicates
are far in the past, and we'll show the grandparent before the
duplicate. And likewise, a proposed change to set GIT_COMMITTER_DATE in
all scripts will break it.
We _could_ fix this by sorting before removing duplicates, but
presumably it's a useful part of the test to make sure the trees appear
in the same order in both spots. Likewise, we could use something like:
perl -ne 'print unless $seen{$_}++'
to remove duplicates without impacting the order. But that doesn't work
either, because there are actually multiple (non-duplicate) commits with
the same trees (we change a file mode and then change it back). So we'd
actually have to de-duplicate the combination of subject and tree. Which
then further throws off t9100.18, which compares the tree hashes
exactly; we'd have to strip the result back down.
Since this test _isn't_ buggy, the simplest thing is to just work around
the proposed change by documenting our expectation that git-created
commits are correctly interleaved using the current time.

reflog: cleanse messages in the refs.c layer
Regarding reflog messages:
- We expect that a reflog message consists of a single line. The
file format used by the files backend may add a LF after the
message as a delimiter, and output by commands like "git log -g"
may complete such an incomplete line by adding a LF at the end,
but philosophically, the terminating LF is not a part of the
message.
- We however allow callers of refs API to supply a random sequence
of NUL terminated bytes. We cleanse caller-supplied message by
squashing a run of whitespaces into a SP, and by trimming trailing
whitespace, before storing the message. This is how we tolerate,
instead of erring out, a message with LF in it (be it at the end,
in the middle, or both).
Currently, the cleansing of the reflog message is done by the files
backend, before the log is written out. This is sufficient with the
current code, as that is the only backend that writes reflogs. But
new backends can be added that write reflogs, and we'd want the
resulting log message we would read out of "log -g" the same no
matter what backend is used, and moving the code to do so to the
generic layer is a way to do so.
An added benefit is that the "cleansing" function could be updated
later, independent from individual backends, to e.g. allow
multi-line log messages if we wanted to, and when that happens, it
would help a lot to ensure we covered all bases if the cleansing
function (which would be updated) is called from the generic layer.
Side note: I am not interested in supporting multi-line reflog
messages right at the moment (nobody is asking for it), but I
envision that instead of the "squash a run of whitespaces into a SP
and rtrim" cleansing, we can %urlencode problematic bytes in the
message *AND* append a SP at the end, when a new version of Git that
supports multi-line and/or verbatim reflog messages writes a reflog
record. The reading side can detect the presense of SP at the end
(which should have been rtrimmed out if it were written by existing
versions of Git) as a signal that decoding %urlencode recovers the
original reflog message.

t5539: make timestamp requirements more explicit
The test for "no shallow lines after receiving ACK ready" is very
sensitive to the timestamps of the commits we create. It's looking for
the fetch negotiation to send a "ready", which in turn depends on the
order in which we traverse commits during the negotiation.
It works reliably now because the base commit "7" is created without
test_commit, and thus gets a commit time matching the current system
clock. Whereas the new commits created in this test do use test_commit,
and get the usual test_tick time from 2005. So the fetch into the
"clone" repository results in a commit graph like this (I omitted some
of the "unrelated" commits for clarity; they're all just a sequence of
test_ticks):
- "7" is way in the future compared to the other commits
- "new-too" in the fetching repo is older than "new" (and its
"unrelated" ancestors) in the shallow repo
If we change our "setup shallow clone" step to use test_tick, too (and
get rid of the dependency on the system clock), then the test will fail.
The resulting graph looks like this:
Our "new-too" is still older than "new" and "unrelated", but now "7" is
older than all of them (because it advanced test_tick, which the other
tests built on top of). In the original, we advertised "7" as the first
"have" before anything else, but now "new-too" is more recent. You'd see
the same thing in the unlikely event that the system clock was set
before our test_tick default in 2005.
Let's make the timing requirements more explicit. The important thing is
that the client advertise all of its shared commits first, before
presenting its unique "new-too" commit. We can do that and get rid of
the system clock dependency at the same time by creating all of the
shared commits around time X (using test_tick), and then creating
"new-too" with some time long before X. The resulting graph looks like
this:
That also lets us get rid of the hacky test_tick added by f0e802ca20
(t5539: update a flaky test, 2014-07-14). That was clearly dancing
around the same problem, but only addressed the relationship between
commits created in the two subshells (which did use test_tick, but
overlapped because increments of test_tick in subshells are lost). Now
that we're using consistent and well-placed times for both lines of
history, we don't have to care about a one-tick difference between the
two sides.

experimental: default to fetch.writeCommitGraph=false
The fetch.writeCommitGraph feature makes fetches write out a commit
graph file for the newly downloaded pack on fetch. This improves the
performance of various commands that would perform a revision walk and
eventually ought to be the default for everyone. To prepare for that
future, it's enabled by default for users that set
feature.experimental=true to experience such future defaults.
Alas, for --unshallow fetches from a shallow clone it runs into a
snag: by the time Git has fetched the new objects and is writing a
commit graph, it has performed a revision walk and r->parsed_objects
contains information about the shallow boundary from *before* the
fetch. The commit graph writing code is careful to avoid writing a
commit graph file in shallow repositories, but the new state is not
shallow, and the result is that from that point on, commands like "git
log" make use of a newly written commit graph file representing a
fictional history with the old shallow boundary.
We could fix this by making the commit graph writing code more careful
to avoid writing a commit graph that could have used any grafts or
shallow state, but it is possible that there are other pieces of
mutated state that fetch's commit graph writing code may be relying
on. So disable it in the feature.experimental configuration.
Google developers have been running in this configuration (by setting
fetch.writeCommitGraph=false in the system config) to work around this
bug since it was discovered in April. Once the fix lands, we'll
enable fetch.writeCommitGraph=true again to give it some early testing
before rolling out to a wider audience.
In other words:
- this patch only affects behavior with feature.experimental=true
- it makes feature.experimental match the configuration Google has
been using for the last few months, meaning it would leave users in
a better tested state than without it
- this should improve testing for other features guarded by
feature.experimental, by making feature.experimental safer to use

commit.c: don't persist substituted parents when unshallowing
Since 37b9dcabfc (shallow.c: use '{commit,rollback}_shallow_file',
2020-04-22), Git knows how to reset stat-validity checks for the
$GIT_DIR/shallow file, allowing it to change between a shallow and
non-shallow state in the same process (e.g., in the case of 'git fetch
--unshallow').
However, when $GIT_DIR/shallow changes, Git does not alter or remove any
grafts (nor substituted parents) in memory.
This comes up in a "git fetch --unshallow" with fetch.writeCommitGraph
set to true. Ordinarily in a shallow repository (and before 37b9dcabfc,
even in this case), commit_graph_compatible() would return false,
indicating that the repository should not be used to write a
commit-graphs (since commit-graph files cannot represent a shallow
history). But since 37b9dcabfc, in an --unshallow operation that check
succeeds.
Thus even though the repository isn't shallow any longer (that is, we
have all of the objects), the in-core representation of those objects
still has munged parents at the shallow boundaries. When the
commit-graph write proceeds, we use the incorrect parentage, producing
wrong results.
There are two ways for a user to work around this: either (1) set
'fetch.writeCommitGraph' to 'false', or (2) drop the commit-graph after
unshallowing.
One way to fix this would be to reset the parsed object pool entirely
(flushing the cache and thus preventing subsequent reads from modifying
their parents) after unshallowing. That would produce a problem when
callers have a now-stale reference to the old pool, and so this patch
implements a different approach. Instead, attach a new bit to the pool,
'substituted_parent', which indicates if the repository *ever* stored a
commit which had its parents modified (i.e., the shallow boundary
prior to unshallowing).
This bit needs to be sticky because all reads subsequent to modifying a
commit's parents are unreliable when unshallowing. Modify the check in
'commit_graph_compatible' to take this bit into account, and correctly
avoid generating commit-graphs in this case, thus solving the bug.

then complain if we didn't find a base, like so:
sym->left = rev->pending.objects[lpos].name;

single pointer-sized read before exiting anyway, but it does violate the
C standard, and of course memory-checking tools like ASan complain.
Let's put the basecount check first. Note that we haveto split it from
the other assignments, since the die() relies on sym->left and

The result of the "symleft flag bit is propagated down from tag" test
relies on the output order of commits from git-log, which in turn
depends on these timestamps. So this test is technically dependent on
the system clock time, though in practice it would only matter if your
system clock was set before test_tick's default time (which is in 2005).
However, let's use test_tick consistently for those early commits (and
update the expected output to match). This makes the test deterministic,
which is in turn easier to reason about and debug.
Note that there's also a fourth commit here, and it does not use
test_tick. It does have a deterministic timestamp because of the prior
use of test_tick in the script, but it will always be the same time as
the third commit. Let's use test_tick here, too, for consistency. The
matching timestamps between the third and fourth commit are not an
important part of the test.
We could also use test_commit in all of these cases, as it runs
test_tick under the hood. But it would be awkward to do so, as these
tests diverge from the usual test_commit patterns (e.g., by creating
multiple files in a single commit).
