fetch: free "raw" string when shrinking refspec
The "--prefetch" option to git-fetch modifies the default refspec,
including eliminating some entries entirely. When we drop an entry we
free the strings in the refspec_item, but we forgot to free the matching
string in the "raw" array of the refspec struct. There's no behavioral
bug here (since we correctly shrink the raw array, too), but we're
leaking the allocated string.
Let's add in the leak-fix, and while we're at it drop "const" from
the type of the raw string array. These strings are always allocated by
refspec_append(), etc, and this makes the memory ownership more clear.
This is all a bit more intimate with the refspec code than I'd like, and
I suspect it would be better if each refspec_item held on to its own raw
string, we had a single array, and we could use refspec_item_clear() to
clean up everything. But that's a non-trivial refactoring, since
refspec_item structs can be held outside of a "struct refspec", without
having a matching raw string at all. So let's leave that for now and
just fix the leak in the most immediate way.
This lets us mark t5582 as leak-free.

send-pack: free cas options before exit

We can fix this by calling clear_cas_option(), after making it publicly

The git-push command has the same "leak", though in this case it won't

commit: avoid leaking already-saved buffer
When we parse a commit via repo_parse_commit_internal(), if
save_commit_buffer is set we'll stuff the buffer of the object contents
into a cache, overwriting any previous value.
This can result in a leak of that previously cached value, though it's
rare in practice. If we have a value in the cache it would have come
from a previous parse, and during that parse we'd set the object.parsed
flag, causing any subsequent parse attempts to exit without doing any
work.
But it's possible to "unparse" a commit, which we do when registering a
commit graft. And since shallow fetches are implemented using grafts,
the leak is triggered in practice by t5539.
There are a number of possible ways to address this:
1. the unparsing function could clear the cached commit buffer, too. I
think this would work for the case I found, but I'm not sure if
there are other ways to end up in the same state (an unparsed
commit with an entry in the commit buffer cache).
2. when we parse, we could check the buffer cache and prefer it to
reading the contents from the object database. In theory the
contents of a particular sha1 are immutable, but the code in
question is violating the immutability with grafts. So this
approach makes me a bit nervous, although I think it would work in
practice (the grafts are applied to what we parse, but we still
retain the original contents).
3. We could realize the cache is already populated and discard its
contents before overwriting. It's possible some other code could be
holding on to a pointer to the old cache entry (and we'd introduce
a use-after-free), but I think the risk of that is relatively low.
4. The reverse of (3): when the cache is populated, don't bother
saving our new copy. This is perhaps a little weird, since we'll
have just populated the commit struct based on a different buffer.
But the two buffers should be the same, even in the presence of
grafts (as in (2) above).
I went with option 4. It addresses the leak directly and doesn't carry
any risk of breaking other assumptions. And it's the same technique used
by parse_object_buffer() for this situation, though I'm not sure when it
would even come up there. The extra safety has been there since bd1e17e245 (Make "parse_object()" also fill in commit message buffer
data., 2005-05-25).

When calling `fetch_pack()` the caller is expected to pass in a set of
sought-after refs that they want to fetch. This array gets massaged to
not contain duplicate entries, which is done by replacing duplicate refs
with `NULL` pointers. This modifies the caller-provided array, and in
case we do unset any pointers the caller now loses track of that ref and
cannot free it anymore.
Now the obvious fix would be to not only unset these pointers, but to
also free their contents. But this doesn't work because callers continue
to use those refs. Another potential solution would be to copy the array
in `fetch_pack()` so that we dont modify the caller-provided one. But
that doesn't work either because the NULL-ness of those entries is used
by callers to skip over ref entries that we didn't even try to fetch in
`report_unmatched_refs()`.
Instead, we make it the responsibility of our callers to duplicate these
arrays as needed. It ain't pretty, but it works to plug the memory leak.

nothing to move. As such, this code is guarded by a condition that only
performs the move in case there are grafts after the position of the

the graft when it exists. Fix the resulting memory leak by doing so.

git-jump: ignore deleted files in diff mode
If you do something like this:
rm file_a
echo change >file_b
git jump diff
then we'll generate two quickfix entries for the diff, one for each
file. But the one for the deleted file is rather pointless. There's no
content to show since the file is gone, and in fact we open the editor
with the path /dev/null!
In vim, at least, the result is a confusing annoyance: the editor opens
with an empty buffer, and you have to skip past it to the useful
quickfix entry (after scratching your head and figuring out that no,
nothing is broken).
Let's skip such entries entirely. There's nothing useful to show, since
the point is that the file has been deleted.
It is possible that you could be doing a diff whose post-image is not
the working tree, and then you'd perhaps be jumping to the deleted
content (or at least something that was in the same spot). But I don't
think it's worth worrying about that case. For one thing, using git-jump
for such diffs is a bad idea in general, as it's going to sometimes move
you to the wrong spot. And two, a deletion is always going to have one
hunk starting at line 1, which is not that interesting to jump to in the
first place.

which is ambiguous. It could be line 1 of "file", or line 11 of the file
"file:1: static_lease 10", and so on. In the case of vim's default
config, it seems to prefer the latter (you can configure "errorformat"
with a variety of patterns, but out of the box it matches some common
ones).
One easy way to fix this is to provide a column number, like:
also works. That perhaps would the right thing even if you had the silly
file name "file:1:1: foo 10". But it's not clear what would happen if
you had a filename with quotes in it.
This feature is inherently scraping text, and there's bound to be some
ambiguities. I don't think it's worth worrying too much about unlikely
filenames, as its the file content that is more likely to introduce
unexpected characters.
So let's just go with the extra ":1" column specifier. We know this is
supported everywhere, as git-jump's "grep" mode already uses it (and
thus doesn't exhibit the same problem).
The "merge" mode is mostly immune to this, as it only matches "<<<<<<<"
conflict marker lines. It's possible of course to have a marker that
says "foo 10:11" later in the line, but in practice these will only have
branches and perhaps file names, so it's probably not worth worrying
about (and fixing it would involve passing --column to the system grep,
which may not be portable).
I also gave some thought as to whether we could put something more
useful than "1" in the column field for diffs. In theory we could find
the first changed character of the line, but this is tricky in practice.
You'd have to correlate before/after lines of the hunk to decide what
changed. So:
-this is a foo line
+this is a bar line
is easy (column 11). But:
-this is a foo line
+another line
+this is a bar line
is harder.
This commit certainly doesn't preclude trying to do something more
clever later, but it's a much deeper rabbit hole than just fixing the
syntactic ambiguity.

print an error when remote helpers die during capabilities
The transport-helper code generally relies on the
remote-helper to provide an informative message to the user
when it encounters an error. In the rare cases where the
helper does not do so, the output can be quite confusing.
E.g.:
$ git clone https://example.com/foo.git
Cloning into 'foo'...

$ ls foo
/bin/ls: cannot access foo: No such file or directory
We tried to address this with 81d340d (transport-helper:

But that makes the common case much more confusing. The
remote helper protocol's method for signaling normal errors
is to simply hang up. So when the helper does encounter a
routine error and prints something to stderr, the extra
error message is redundant and misleading. So we dropped it
again in 266f1fd (transport-helper: be quiet on read errors
from helpers, 2013-06-21).
This puts the uncommon case right back where it started. We
may be able to do a little better, though. It is common for
the helper to die during a "real" command, like fetching the
list of remote refs. It is not common for it to die during
the initial "capabilities" negotiation, right after we
start. Reporting failure here is likely to catch fundamental
problems that prevent the helper from running (and reporting
errors) at all. Anything after that is the responsibility of
the helper itself to report.

Git.pm, but even if somebody tries it, that's sufficiently old that it
should be OK.

we will incorrectly point the repository object at the _current_
directory, not the one specified by the option.
The bug was introduced by 20da61f25f (Git.pm: trust rev-parse to find
bare repositories, 2022-10-22). Before then, we'd ask "rev-parse
--git-dir" if it was a Git repo, and if it returned anything, we'd
correctly convert that result to an absolute path using File::Spec and
Cwd::abs_path(). If it didn't, we'd guess it might be a bare repository
and find it ourselves, which was wrong (rev-parse should find even a
bare repo, and our search circumvented some of its rules).
That commit dropped most of the custom bare-repo search code in favor of
using "rev-parse --is-bare-repository" and trusting the "--git-dir" it
returned. But it mistakenly left some of the bare-repo code path in
place, which was now broken. That code calls Cwd::abs_path($dir); prior
to 20da61f25f $dir contained the "Directory" option the user passed in.
But afterwards, it contains the output of "rev-parse --git-dir". And
since our tentative rev-parse command is invoked after changing
directory, it will always be the relative path "."! So we'll end up with
the absolute path of the process's current directory, not the Directory
option the caller asked for.
So the non-bare case is correct, but the bare one is broken. Our tests
only check the non-bare one, so we didn't notice. We can fix this by
running the same absolute-path fixup code for both sides.

In the preceding commits we had to convert the linux32 job to be based
on Ubuntu 20.04 instead of Ubuntu 16.04 due to a limitation in GitHub
Workflows. This was the only job left that still tested against this old
but supported Ubuntu version, and we have no other jobs that test with a
comparatively old Linux distribution.
Add a new job to GitLab CI that tests with Ubuntu 16.04 to cover the
resulting test gap. GitLab doesn't modify Docker images in the same way
GitHub does and thus doesn't fall prey to the same issue. There are two
compatibility issues uncovered by this:
- Ubuntu 16.04 does not support HTTP/2 in Apache. We thus cannot set
`GIT_TEST_HTTPD=true`, which would otherwise cause us to fail when
Apache fails to start.
- Ubuntu 16.04 cannot use recent JGit versions as they depend on a
more recent Java runtime than we have available. We thus disable
installing any kind of optional dependencies that do not come from
the package manager.
These two restrictions are fine though, as we only really care about
whether Git compiles and runs on such old distributions in the first
place.

t/interop: allow per-version make options
Building older versions of Git may require tweaking some build knobs. In
particular, very old versions of Git will fail to build with recent
OpenSSL, because the bignum type switched from a struct to a pointer.
The i5500 interop test uses Git v1.0.0 by default, which triggers this
problem. You can work around it by setting NO_OPENSSL in your
GIT_TEST_MAKE_OPTS variable. But there are two downsides:
1. You have to know to do this, and it's not at all obvious.
2. That sets the options for _all_ versions of Git that we build. And
it's possible for two versions to require conflicting knobs. E.g.,
building with "make NO_OPENSSL=Nope OPENSSL_SHA1=Yes" causes
imap-send.c to barf, because it declares a fallback typedef for SSL.
This is something we may want to fix, but of course many historical
versions are affected, and the interop scripts should be flexible
enough to build everything.
So let's introduce per-version make options, along with the ability for
scripts to specify knobs that match their default versions. That should
make everything build out of the box, but also allow testers flexibility
if they are testing interoperability between non-default versions.
We'll set NO_OPENSSL by default for v1.0.0 in i5500. It doesn't have to
worry about the conflict with OPENSSL_SHA1 because imap-send did not
exist back then (but if it did, it could also just explicitly use a
different hash implementation).
