ddbbf8eb25 sq_dequote: fix extra consumption of source string
This fixes a (probably harmless) parsing problem in
sq_dequote_step(), in which we parse some bogus input
incorrectly rather than complaining that it's bogus.

Our shell-dequoting function is very strict: it can unquote
everything generated by sq_quote(), but not arbitrary
strings. In particular, it only allows characters outside of
the single-quoted string if they are immediately backslashed
and then the single-quoted string is resumed. So:

  'foo'\''bar'

is OK. But these are not:

  'foo'\'bar
  'foo'\'
  'foo'\'\''bar'

even though they are all valid shell. The parser has a funny
corner case here. When we see a backslashed character, we
keep incrementing the "src" pointer as we parse it. For a
single sq_dequote() call, that's OK; our next step is to
bail with an error, and we don't care where "src" points.

But if we're parsing multiple strings with sq_dequote_to_argv(),
then our next step is to see if the string is followed by
whitespace. Because we erroneously incremented the "src"
pointer, we don't barf on the bogus backslash that we
skipped. Instead, we may find whitespace that immediately
follows it, and continue as if all is well (skipping the
backslashed character completely!).

In practice, this shouldn't be a big deal. The input is
bogus, and our sq_quote() would never generate this bogus
input. In all but one callers, we are parsing input created
by an earlier call to sq_quote(). That final case is "git
shell", which parses shell-quoting generated by the client.
And in that case we use the singular sq_quote(), which has
always behaved correctly.

One might also wonder if you could provoke a read past the
end of the string. But the answer is no; we still parse
character by character, and would never advance past a NUL.

This patch implements the minimal fix, along with
documenting the restriction (which confused at least me
while reading the code). We should possibly consider
being more liberal in accepting valid shell-quoted words. I
suspect the code may actually be simpler, and it would be
more friendly to anybody generating or editing input by
hand. But I wanted to fix just the immediate bug in this
patch.

We don't have a direct way to unit-test the sq_dequote()
functions, but we can do this by feeding input to
GIT_CONFIG_PARAMETERS (which is not normally a user-facing
interface, but serves here as it expects to see sq_quote()
input from "git -c"). I've included both a bogus example,
and a related "good" one to confirm that we still parse it
correctly.

a6119f82b1 test-hashmap: use "unsigned int" for hash storage
The hashmap API always use an unsigned value for storing
and comparing hashes. Whereas this test code uses "int".
This works out in practice since one can typically
round-trip between "int" and "unsigned int". But since this
is essentially reference code for the hashmap API, we should
model using the correct types.

7daa825d67 test-hashmap: simplify alloc_test_entry
This function takes two ptr/len pairs, which implies that
they can be arbitrary buffers. But internally, it assumes
that each "ptr" is NUL-terminated at "len" (because we
memcpy an extra byte to pick up the NUL terminator).

In practice this works because each caller only ever passes
strlen(ptr) as the length. But let's drop the "len"
parameters to make our expectations clear.

Note that we can get rid of the "l1" and "l2" variables from
cmd_main() as a further cleanup, since they are now mostly
used to check whether the p1 and p2 arguments are present
(technically the length parameters conflated NULL with the
empty string, which we no longer do, but I think that is
actually an improvement).

7e8089c986 test-hashmap: use strbuf_getline rather than fgets
Using fgets() with a fixed-size buffer can lead to lines
being accidentally split across two calls if they are larger
than the buffer size.

As this is just a test helper, this is unlikely to be a
problem in practice. But since people may look at test
helpers as reference code, it's a good idea for them to
model the preferred behavior.

cbadf0ee37 test-hashmap: use xsnprintf rather than snprintf
In general, using a bare snprintf can truncate the resulting
buffer, leading to confusing results. In this case we know
that our buffer is sized large enough to accommodate our
loop, so there's no bug. However, we should use xsnprintf()
to document (and check) that assumption, and to model good
practice to people reading the code.

b6c4380d6e test-hashmap: check allocation computation for overflow
When we allocate the test_entry flex-struct, we have to add
up all of the elements that go into the flex array. If these
were to overflow a size_t, this would allocate a too-small
buffer, which we would then overflow in our memcpy steps.

Since this is just a test-helper, it probably doesn't matter
in practice, but we should model the correct technique by
using the st_add() macros.

Unfortunately, we cannot use the FLEX_ALLOC() macros here,
because we are stuffing two different buffers into a single
flex array.

While we're here, let's also swap out "malloc" for our
error-checking "xmalloc", and use the preferred
"sizeof(*var)" instead of "sizeof(type)".

aef6cf1e50 test-hashmap: use ALLOC_ARRAY rather than bare malloc
These two array allocations have several minor flaws:

  - they use bare malloc, rather than our error-checking
    xmalloc

  - they do a bare multiplication to determine the total
    size (which in theory can overflow, though in this case
    the sizes are all constants)

  - they use sizeof(type), but the type in the second one
    doesn't match the actual array (though it's "int" versus
    "unsigned int", which are guaranteed by C99 to have the
    same size)

None of these are likely to be problems in practice, and
this is just a test helper. But since people often look at
test helpers as reference code, we should do our best to
model the recommended techniques.

Switching to ALLOC_ARRAY fixes all three.

a8e7a2bf0f describe: confirm that blobs actually exist
Prior to 644eb60bd0 (builtin/describe.c: describe a blob,
2017-11-15), we noticed and complained about missing
objects, since they were not valid commits:

  $ git describe 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000
  fatal: 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 is not a valid 'commit' object

After that commit, we feed any non-commit to lookup_blob(),
and complain only if it returns NULL. But the lookup_*
functions do not actually look at the on-disk object
database at all. They return an entry from the in-memory
object hash if present (and if it matches the requested
type), and otherwise auto-create a "struct object" of the
requested type.

A missing object would hit that latter case: we create a
bogus blob struct, walk all of history looking for it, and
then exit successfully having produced no output.

One reason nobody may have noticed this is that some related
cases do still work OK:

  1. If we ask for a tree by sha1, then the call to
     lookup_commit_referecne_gently() would have parsed it,
     and we would have its true type in the in-memory object
     hash.

  2. If we ask for a name that doesn't exist but isn't a
     40-hex sha1, then get_oid() would complain before we
     even look at the objects at all.

We can fix this by replacing the lookup_blob() call with a
check of the true type via sha1_object_info(). This is not
quite as efficient as we could possibly make this check. We
know in most cases that the object was already parsed in the
earlier commit lookup, so we could call lookup_object(),
which does auto-create, and check the resulting struct's
type (or NULL).  However it's not worth the fragility nor
code complexity to save a single object lookup.

The new tests cover this case, as well as that of a
tree-by-sha1 (which does work as described above, but was
not explicitly tested).

54360a1956 Makefile: suppress a sparse warning for pack-revindex.c
Sparse has, for a long time, been issuing the following warning against
the pack-revindex.c file:

      SP pack-revindex.c
  pack-revindex.c:64:23: warning: memset with byte count of 262144

This results from a unconditional check, with a hard-coded limit, which
is really only appropriate for the kernel source code. (The check is for
a 'large' byte count in a call to memcpy(), memset(), copy_from_user()
and copy_to_user() functions).

A recent release of sparse (v0.5.1) has introduced some options to allow
this check to be turned off (-Wno-memcpy-max-count) or to specify the
actual limit used (-fmemcpy-max-count=COUNT), rather than a hard-coded
limit of 100000.

In order to suppress the warning, add a target for pack-revindex.sp that
adds the '-Wno-memcpy-max-count' option to the SPARSE_FLAGS variable.

by relying on helpers like test_must_fail.

Note that a failing "grep" call here won't produce any
verbose output, but that's OK. These days we rely on "-x" to
tell us about such commands. And in addition, these greps
are soon to be converted to test_i18ngrep (which is itself
soon learning to be more verbose).

12e31a6b12 t: document 'test_must_fail ok=<signal-name>'
Since 'test_might_fail' is implemented as a thin wrapper around
'test_must_fail', it also accepts the same options.  Mention this in
the docs as well.

7bf0be7501 update-index doc: note the caveat with "could not open..."
Note the caveat where 2.17 is stricter about index validation
potentially causing "could not open directory" warnings when git is
upgraded. See the preceding "dir.c: stop ignoring opendir() error in
open_cached_dir()" change.

This caused some mayhem when I upgraded git to a version with this
series at Booking.com, and other users have doubtless enabled the UC
extension and are in for a surprise when they upgrade. Let's give them
a headsup in the docs.

9b978691b1 update-index doc: note a fixed bug in the untracked cache
Document the bug tested for in my "status: add a failing test showing
a core.untrackedCache bug" and fixed in Duy's "dir.c: fix missing dir
invalidation in untracked code".

Since this is very likely something others will encounter in the
future on older versions, and it's not obvious how to fix it let's
document both that it exists, and how to "fix" it with a one-off
command.

As noted in that commit, even though this bug gets the untracked cache
into a bad state, we have not yet found a case where this is user
visible, and thus it makes sense for these docs to focus on the
symlink case only.
