A CI job that use clang-format to check coding style issues in new
code has been added.
* kn/ci-clang-format:
ci/style-check: add `RemoveBracesLLVM` in CI job
check-whitespace: detect if no base_commit is provided
ci: run style check on GitHub and GitLab
clang-format: formalize some of the spacing rules
clang-format: avoid spacing around bitfield colon
clang-format: indent preprocessor directives after hash
For 'clang-format', setting 'RemoveBracesLLVM' to 'true', adds a check
to ensure we avoid curly braces for single-statement bodies in
conditional blocks.
However, the option does come with two warnings [1]:
This option will be renamed and expanded to support other styles.
and
Setting this option to true could lead to incorrect code formatting
due to clang-format’s lack of complete semantic information. As
such, extra care should be taken to review code changes made by
this option.
The latter seems to be of concern. While we want to experiment with the
rule, adding it to the in-tree '.clang-format' could affect end-users.
Let's only add it to the CI jobs for now. With time, we can evaluate
its efficacy and decide if we want to add it to '.clang-format' or
retract it entirely. We do so, by adding the existing rules in
'.clang-format' and this rule to a temp file outside the working tree,
which is then used by 'git clang-format'. This ensures we don't murk
with files in-tree.

The 'check-whitespace' CI script exits gracefully if no base commit is
provided or if an invalid revision is provided. This is not good because
if a particular CI provides an incorrect base_commit, it would fail
successfully.
This is exactly the case with the GitLab CI. The CI is using the
"$CI_MERGE_REQUEST_TARGET_BRANCH_SHA" variable to get the base commit
SHA, but variable is only defined for _merged_ pipelines. So it is empty
for regular pipelines [1]. This should've failed the check-whitespace
job.
Let's fallback to 'CI_MERGE_REQUEST_DIFF_BASE_SHA' if
"CI_MERGE_REQUEST_TARGET_BRANCH_SHA" isn't available in GitLab CI,
similar to the previous commit. Let's also add a check for incorrect
base_commit in the 'check-whitespace.sh' script. While here, fix a small
typo too.

We don't run style checks on our CI, even though we have a
'.clang-format' setup in the repository. Let's add one, the job will
validate only against the new commits added and will only run on merge
requests. Since we're introducing it for the first time, let's allow
this job to fail, so we can validate if this is useful and eventually
enforce it.
For GitHub, we allow the job to pass by adding 'continue-on-error: true'
to the workflow. This means the job would show as passed, even if the
style check failed. To know the status of the job, users have to
manually check the logs.
For GitLab, we allow the job to pass by adding 'allow_failure: true', to
the job. Unlike GitHub, here the job will show as failed with a yellow
warning symbol, but the pipeline would still show as passed.
Also for GitLab, we use the 'CI_MERGE_REQUEST_TARGET_BRANCH_SHA'
variable by default to obtain the base SHA of the merged pipeline (which
is only available for merged pipelines [1]). Otherwise we use the
'CI_MERGE_REQUEST_DIFF_BASE_SHA' variable.

Tests that use GIT_TEST_SANITIZE_LEAK_LOG feature got their exit
status inverted, which has been corrected.
* rj/test-sanitize-leak-log-fix:
test-lib: GIT_TEST_SANITIZE_LEAK_LOG enabled by default
test-lib: fix GIT_TEST_SANITIZE_LEAK_LOG
As we currently describe in t/README, it can happen that:
Some tests run "git" (or "test-tool" etc.) without properly checking
the exit code, or git will invoke itself and fail to ferry the
abort() exit code to the original caller.
Therefore, GIT_TEST_SANITIZE_LEAK_LOG=true is needed to be set to
capture all memory leaks triggered by our tests.
It seems unnecessary to force users to remember this option, as
forgetting it could lead to missed memory leaks.
We could solve the problem by making it "true" by default, but that
might suggest we think "false" makes sense, which isn't the case.
Therefore, the best approach is to remove the option entirely while
maintaining the capability to detect memory leaks in blind spots of our
tests.

Under ci/ hierarchy, we run scripts under either "sh" (any Bourne
compatible POSIX shell would work) or specifically "bash" (as they
require features from bash, e.g., ${parameter/pattern/string}
expansion). As we have the CI environment under our control, we can
expect that /bin/sh will always be fine to run the scripts that only
require a Bourne shell, but we may not know where "bash" is
installed depending on the distro used.
So let's make sure we start these scripts with either one of these:
#!/bin/sh
#!/usr/bin/env bash
Yes, the latter has to assume that everybody installs "env" at that
path and not as /bin/env or /usr/local/bin/env, but this currently
is the best we could do.

CI job to build minimum fuzzers learned to pass NO_CURL=NoThanks to
the build procedure, as its build environment does not offer, or
the rest of the build needs, anything cURL.
* jc/fuzz-sans-curl:
fuzz: minimum fuzzers environment lacks libcURL
The "fuzz smoke test" job compiles various .o files to create
libgit.a and others, but the final build product of the fuzzer build
is *not* "git". Since the job is not interested in building a
working "git", it does not define any build flags, and among the
notable ones that are missing is NO_CURL---even though the CI
environment that runs the job does not have libcURL development
package installed.
This obviously leads to a build failure.
Pass NO_CURL=NoThanks to "make" to make sure things will build
correctly, if we add any conditional compilation with "#ifdef
NO_CURL ... #endif" in the codebase.

In Python 3.6, unrecognized escape sequences in regular expressions
started to produce a DeprecationWarning [1]. In Python 3.12, this was
upgraded to a SyntaxWarning and will eventually be raised even further
to a SyntaxError. We indirectly hit such unrecognized escape sequences
via Asciidoc, which results in a bunch of warnings:
$ asciidoc -o /dev/null git-cat-file.txt
<unknown>:1: SyntaxWarning: invalid escape sequence '\S'
<unknown>:1: SyntaxWarning: invalid escape sequence '\S'
This in turn causes our "ci/test-documentation.sh" script to fail, as it
checks that stderr of `make doc` is empty.
These escape sequences seem to be part of Asciidoc itself. In the long
term, we should probably consider dropping support for Asciidoc in favor
of Asciidoctor. Upstream also considers itself to be legacy software and
recommends to move away from it [2]:
It is suggested that unless you specifically require the AsciiDoc.py
toolchain, you should find a processor that handles the modern
AsciiDoc syntax.
For now though, let's expand its lifetime a little bit more by filtering
out these new warnings. We should probably reconsider once the warnings
are upgraded to errors by Python.

Unbreak CI jobs so that we do not attempt to use Python 2 that has
been removed from the platform.
* ps/ci-python-2-deprecation:
ci: fix Python dependency on Ubuntu 24.04
In "t/lib-terminal.sh", we declare a lazy prerequisite for tests that
require a TTY. The prerequisite uses a Perl script to figure out whether
we do have a usable TTY or not and thus implicitly depends on the PERL
prerequisite, as well. Furthermore though, the script requires another
dependency that is easy to miss, namely on the IO::Pty module. If that
module is not installed, then the script will exit early due to an
reason unrelated to missing TTYs.
This easily leads to missing test coverage. But most importantly, our CI
systems are missing this dependency and thus don't execute those tests
at all. Fix this.

Add a wrapper script to allow `prove` to run both shell tests and unit
tests from a single invocation. This avoids issues around running prove
twice in CI, as discussed in [1].
Additionally, this moves the unit tests into the main dev workflow, so
that errors can be spotted more quickly. Accordingly, we remove the
separate unit tests step for Linux CI. (We leave the Windows CI
unit-test step as-is, because the sharding scheme there involves
selecting specific test files rather than running `make test`.)

Newer versions of Ubuntu have dropped Python 2 starting with Ubuntu
23.04. By default though, our CI setups will try to use that Python
version on all Ubuntu-based jobs except for the "linux-gcc" one.
We didn't notice this issue due to two reasons:
- The "ubuntu:latest" tag always points to the latest LTS release.
Until a few weeks ago this was Ubuntu 22.04, which still had Python
2.
- Our Docker-based CI jobs had their own script to install
dependencies until 9cdeb34b96 (ci: merge scripts which install
dependencies, 2024-04-12), where we didn't even try to install
Python at all for many of them.
Since the CI refactorings have originally been implemented, Ubuntu
24.04 was released, and it being an LTS versions means that the "latest"
tag now points to that Python-2-less version. Consequently, those jobs
that use "ubuntu:latest" broke.
Address this by using Python 2 on Ubuntu 20.04, only, whereas we use
Python 3 on all other Ubuntu jobs. Eventually, we should think about
dropping support for Python 2 completely.

Since 5e47215080 (fuzz: add basic fuzz testing target., 2018-10-12), we
have compiled object files for the fuzz tests as part of the default
'make all' target. This helps prevent bit-rot in lesser-used parts of
the codebase, by making sure that incompatible changes are caught at
build time.
However, since we never linked the fuzzer executables, this did not
protect us from link-time errors. As of 8b9a42bf48 (fuzz: fix fuzz test
build rules, 2024-01-19), it's now possible to link the fuzzer
executables without using a fuzzing engine and a variety of
compiler-specific (and compiler-version-specific) flags, at least on
Linux. So let's add a platform-specific option in config.mak.uname to
link the executables as part of the default `make all` target.
Since linking the fuzzer executables without a fuzzing engine does not
require a C++ compiler, we can change the FUZZ_PROGRAMS build rule to
use $(CC) by default. This avoids compiler mis-match issues when
overriding $(CC) but not $(CXX). When we *do* want to actually link with
a fuzzing engine, we can set $(FUZZ_CXX). The build instructions in the
CI fuzz-smoke-test job and in the Makefile comment have been updated
accordingly.
While we're at it, we can consolidate some of the fuzzer build
instructions into one location in the Makefile.

Every once in a while, the `git-p4` tests flake for reasons outside of
our control. It typically fails with "Connection refused" e.g. here:
https://github.com/git/git/actions/runs/5969707156/job/16196057724
[...]
+ git p4 clone --dest=/home/runner/work/git/git/t/trash directory.t9807-git-p4-submit/git //depot

failure accessing depot: could not run p4
Importing from //depot into /home/runner/work/git/git/t/trash directory.t9807-git-p4-submit/git
[...]
This happens in other jobs, too, but in the `linux-asan`/`linux-ubsan`
jobs it hurts the most because those jobs often take an _awfully_ long
time to run, therefore re-running a failed `linux-asan`/`linux-ubsan`
jobs is _very_ costly.
The purpose of the `linux-asan`/`linux-ubsan` jobs is to exercise the C
code of Git, anyway, and any part of Git's source code that the `git-p4`
tests run and that would benefit from the attention of ASAN/UBSAN are
run better in other tests anyway, as debugging C code run via Python
scripts can get a bit hairy.
In fact, it is not even just `git-p4` that is the problem (even if it
flakes often enough to be problematic in the CI builds), but really the
part about Python scripts. So let's just skip any Python parts of the
tests from being run in that job.
For good measure, also skip the Subversion tests because debugging C
code run via Perl scripts is as much fun as debugging C code run via
Python scripts. And it will reduce the time this very expensive job
takes, which is a big benefit.
Backported to `maint-2.39` as another step to get that branch's CI
builds back to a healthy state.

Also, on macOS 13, Homebrew seems to install a `gcc@9` package that no
longer comes with a regular `unistd.h` (there seems only to be a
`ssp/unistd.h`), and hence builds would fail with:
In file included from base85.c:1:
git-compat-util.h:223:10: fatal error: unistd.h: No such file or directory
223 | #include <unistd.h>
| ^~~~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.
The reason why we install GCC v9.x explicitly is historical, and back in
the days it was because it was the _newest_ version available via
Homebrew: 176441bfb5 (ci: build Git with GCC 9 in the 'osx-gcc' build
job, 2019-11-27).
To reinstate the spirit of that commit _and_ to fix that build failure,
let's switch to the now-newest GCC version: v13.x.

We have some tests in t5310 that use JGit to verify that bitmaps can be
read both by Git and by JGit. We do not execute these tests in our CI
jobs though because we don't make JGit available there. Consequently,
the tests basically bitrot because almost nobody is ever going to have
JGit in their path.
Install JGit to plug this test gap.

The Perforce binaries are only made executable for the current user. On
GitLab CI though we execute tests as a different user than "root", and
thus these binaries may not be executable by that test user at all. This
has gone unnoticed so far because those binaries are optional -- in case
they don't exist we simply skip over tests requiring them.
Fix the setup so that we set the executable bits for all users.

We have two different scripts which install dependencies, one for
dockerized jobs and one for non-dockerized ones. Naturally, these
scripts have quite some duplication. Furthermore, either of these
scripts is missing some test dependencies that the respective other
script has, thus reducing test coverage.
Merge those two scripts such that there is a single source of truth for
test dependencies, only.

Part of "install-dependencies.sh" is to install some binaries required
for tests into a custom directory that gets added to the PATH. This
directory is located at "$HOME/path" and thus depends on the current
user that the script executes as.
This creates problems for GitLab CI, which installs dependencies as the
root user, but runs tests as a separate, unprivileged user. As their
respective home directories are different, we will end up using two
different custom path directories. Consequently, the unprivileged user
will not be able to find the binaries that were set up as root user.
Fix this issue by allowing CI to override the custom path, which allows
GitLab to set up a constant value that isn't derived from "$HOME".

We're downloading various executables required by our tests. Each of
these executables goes into its own directory, which is then appended to
the PATH variable. Consequently, whenever we add a new dependency and
thus a new directory, we would have to adapt to this change in several
places.
Refactor this to instead put all binaries into a single directory.

We're about to merge the "install-docker-dependencies.sh" script into
"install-dependencies.sh". This will also move our Alpine-based jobs
over to use the latter script. This script uses the Bash shell though,
which is not available by default on Alpine Linux.
Refactor "install-dependencies.sh" to use "/bin/sh" instead of Bash.
This requires us to get rid of the pushd/popd invocations, which are
replaced by some more elaborate commands that download or extract
executables right to where they are needed.

The "linux-gcc-default" job installs common Ubuntu packages. This is
already done in the distro-specific switch, so we basically duplicate
the effort here.
Drop the duplicate package installations and inline the variable that
contains those common packages.
