45bb916248 setup: allow cwd=.git w/ bareRepository=explicit
The safe.bareRepository setting can be set to 'explicit' to disallow
implicit uses of bare repositories, preventing an attack [1] where an
artificial and malicious bare repository is embedded in another git
repository. Unfortunately, some tooling uses myrepo/.git/ as the cwd
when executing commands, and this is blocked when
safe.bareRepository=explicit. Blocking is unnecessary, as git already
prevents nested .git directories.

Teach git to not reject uses of git inside of the .git directory: check
if cwd is .git (or a subdirectory of it) and allow it even if
safe.bareRepository=explicit.

c358d165f2 setup: move creation of "refs/" into the files backend
When creating the ref database we unconditionally create the "refs/"
directory in "setup.c". This is a mandatory prerequisite for all Git
repositories regardless of the ref backend in use, because Git will be
unable to detect the directory as a repository if "refs/" doesn't exist.

We are about to add another new caller that will want to create a ref
database when creating worktrees. We would require the same logic to
create the "refs/" directory even though the caller really should not
care about such low-level details. Ideally, the ref database should be
fully initialized after calling `refs_init_db()`.

Move the code to create the directory into the files backend itself to
make it so. This means that future ref backends will also need to have
equivalent logic around to ensure that the directory exists, but it
seems a lot more sensible to have it this way round than to require
callers to create the directory themselves.

An alternative to this would be to create "refs/" in `refs_init_db()`
directly. This feels conceptually unclean though as the creation of the
refdb is now cluttered across different callsites. Furthermore, both the
"files" and the upcoming "reftable" backend write backend-specific data
into the "refs/" directory anyway, so splitting up this logic would only
make it harder to reason about.

2e573d61ff refs: prepare refs_init_db() for initializing worktree refs
The purpose of `refs_init_db()` is to initialize the on-disk files of a
new ref database. The function is quite inflexible right now though, as
callers can neither specify the `struct ref_store` nor can they pass any
flags.

Refactor the interface to accept both of these. This will be required so
that we can start initializing per-worktree ref databases via the ref
backend instead of open-coding the initialization in "worktree.c".

d7497a42b0 setup: introduce "extensions.refStorage" extension
Introduce a new "extensions.refStorage" extension that allows us to
specify the ref storage format used by a repository. For now, the only
supported format is the "files" format, but this list will likely soon
be extended to also support the upcoming "reftable" format.

There have been discussions on the Git mailing list in the past around
how exactly this extension should look like. One alternative [1] that
was discussed was whether it would make sense to model the extension in
such a way that backends are arbitrarily stackable. This would allow for
a combined value of e.g. "loose,packed-refs" or "loose,reftable", which
indicates that new refs would be written via "loose" files backend and
compressed into "packed-refs" or "reftable" backends, respectively.

It is arguable though whether this flexibility and the complexity that
it brings with it is really required for now. It is not foreseeable that
there will be a proliferation of backends in the near-term future, and
the current set of existing formats and formats which are on the horizon
can easily be configured with the much simpler proposal where we have a
single value, only.

Furthermore, if we ever see that we indeed want to gain the ability to
arbitrarily stack the ref formats, then we can adapt the current
extension rather easily. Given that Git clients will refuse any unknown
value for the "extensions.refStorage" extension they would also know to
ignore a stacked "loose,packed-refs" in the future.

So let's stick with the easy proposal for the time being and wire up the
extension.

58be32fff9 setup: set repository's formats on init
The proper hash algorithm and ref storage format that will be used for a
newly initialized repository will be figured out in `init_db()` via
`validate_hash_algorithm()` and `validate_ref_storage_format()`. Until
now though, we never set up the hash algorithm or ref storage format of
`the_repository` accordingly.

There are only two callsites of `init_db()`, one in git-init(1) and one
in git-clone(1). The former function doesn't care for the formats to be
set up properly because it never access the repository after calling the
function in the first place.

For git-clone(1) it's a different story though, as we call `init_db()`
before listing remote refs. While we do indeed have the wrong hash
function in `the_repository` when `init_db()` sets up a non-default
object format for the repository, it never mattered because we adjust
the hash after learning about the remote's hash function via the listed
refs.

So the current state is correct for the hash algo, but it's not for the
ref storage format because git-clone(1) wouldn't know to set it up
properly. But instead of adjusting only the `ref_storage_format`, set
both the hash algo and the ref storage format so that `the_repository`
is in the correct state when `init_db()` exits. This is fine as we will
adjust the hash later on anyway and makes it easier to reason about the
end state of `the_repository`.

173761e21b setup: start tracking ref storage format
In order to discern which ref storage format a repository is supposed to
use we need to start setting up and/or discovering the format. This
needs to happen in two separate code paths.

  - The first path is when we create a repository via `init_db()`. When
    we are re-initializing a preexisting repository we need to retain
    the previously used ref storage format -- if the user asked for a
    different format then this indicates an error and we error out.
    Otherwise we either initialize the repository with the format asked
    for by the user or the default format, which currently is the
    "files" backend.

  - The second path is when discovering repositories, where we need to
    read the config of that repository. There is not yet any way to
    configure something other than the "files" backend, so we can just
    blindly set the ref storage format to this backend.

Wire up this logic so that we have the ref storage format always readily
available when needed. As there is only a single backend and because it
is not configurable we cannot yet verify that this tracking works as
expected via tests, but tests will be added in subsequent commits. To
countermand this ommission now though, raise a BUG() in case the ref
storage format is not set up properly in `ref_store_init()`.

18c9cb7524 builtin/clone: create the refdb with the correct object format
We're currently creating the reference database with a potentially
incorrect object format when the remote repository's object format is
different from the local default object format. This works just fine for
now because the files backend never records the object format anywhere.
But this logic will fail with any new reference backend that encodes
this information in some form either on-disk or in-memory.

The preceding commits have reshuffled code in git-clone(1) so that there
is no code path that will access the reference database before we have
detected the remote's object format. With these refactorings we can now
defer initialization of the reference database until after we have
learned the remote's object format and thus initialize it with the
correct format from the get-go.

These refactorings are required to make git-clone(1) work with the
upcoming reftable backend when cloning repositories with the SHA256
object format.

This change breaks a test in "t5550-http-fetch-dumb.sh" when cloning an
empty repository with `GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_HASH=sha256`. The test expects
the resulting hash format of the empty cloned repository to match the
default hash, but now we always end up with a sha1 repository. The
problem is that for dumb HTTP fetches, we have no easy way to figure out
the remote's hash function except for deriving it based on the hash
length of refs in `info/refs`. But as the remote repository is empty we
cannot rely on this detection mechanism.

Before the change in this commit we already initialized the repository
with the default hash function and then left it as-is. With this patch
we always use the hash function detected via the remote, where we fall
back to "sha1" in case we cannot detect it.

Neither the old nor the new behaviour are correct as we second-guess the
remote hash function in both cases. But given that this is a rather
unlikely edge case (we use the dumb HTTP protocol, the remote repository
uses SHA256 and the remote repository is empty), let's simply adapt the
test to assert the new behaviour. If we want to properly address this
edge case in the future we will have to extend the dumb HTTP protocol so
that we can properly detect the hash function for empty repositories.

56cd0334f7 setup: allow skipping creation of the refdb
Allow callers to skip creation of the reference database via a new flag
`INIT_DB_SKIP_REFDB`, which is required for git-clone(1) so that we can
create it at a later point once the object format has been discovered
from the remote repository.

Note that we also uplift the call to `create_reference_database()` into
`init_db()`, which makes it easier to handle the new flag for us. This
changes the order in which we do initialization so that we now set up
the Git configuration before we create the reference database. In
practice this move should not result in any change in behaviour.

a62712696e setup: handle NULL value when parsing extensions
The "partialclone" extension config records a string, and hence it is an
error to have an implicit bool like:

in your config. We should recognize and reject this, rather than
segfaulting (which is the current behavior). Note that it's OK to use
config_error_nonbool() here, even though the return value is an enum. We
explicitly document EXTENSION_ERROR as -1 for compatibility with
error(), etc.

This is the only extension value that has this problem. Most of the
others are bools that interpret this value naturally. The exception is
extensions.objectformat, which does correctly check for NULL.

15a1ca1abe repository: add a compatibility hash algorithm
We currently have support for using a full stage 4 SHA-256
implementation.  However, we'd like to support interoperability with
SHA-1 repositories as well.  The transition plan anticipates a
compatibility hash algorithm configuration option that we can use to
implement support for this.  Let's add an element to the repository
structure that indicates the compatibility hash algorithm so we can use
it when we need to consider interoperability between algorithms.

Add a helper function repo_set_compat_hash_algo that takes a
compatibility hash algorithm and sets "repo->compat_hash_algo".  If
GIT_HASH_UNKNOWN is passed as the compatibility hash algorithm
"repo->compat_hash_algo" is set to NULL.

For now, the code results in "repo->compat_hash_algo" always being set
to NULL, but that will change once a configuration option is added.

26ae8da683 setup: add discover_git_directory_reason()
There are many reasons why discovering a Git directory may fail. In
particular, 8959555cee (setup_git_directory(): add an owner check for
the top-level directory, 2022-03-02) added ownership checks as a
security precaution.

Callers attempting to set up a Git directory may want to inform the user
about the reason for the failure. For that, expose the enum
discovery_result from within setup.c and move it into cache.h where
discover_git_directory() is defined.

I initially wanted to change the return type of discover_git_directory()
to be this enum, but several callers rely upon the "zero means success".
The two problems with this are:

1. The zero value of the enum is actually GIT_DIR_NONE, so nonpositive
   results are errors.

2. There are multiple successful states; positive results are
   successful.

It is worth noting that GIT_DIR_NONE is not returned, so we remove this
option from the enum. We must be careful to keep the successful reasons
as positive values, so they are given explicit positive values.

Instead of updating all callers immediately, add a new method,
discover_git_directory_reason(), and convert discover_git_directory() to
be a thin shim on top of it.

One thing that is important to note is that discover_git_directory()
previously returned -1 on error, so let's continue that into the future.
There is only one caller (in scalar.c) that depends on that signedness
instead of a non-zero check, so clean that up, too.

Because there are extra checks that discover_git_directory_reason() does
after setup_git_directory_gently_1(), there are other modes that can be
returned for failure states. Add these modes to the enum, but be sure to
explicitly add them as BUG() states in the switch of
setup_git_directory_gently().

8868b1ebfb config: pass kvi to die_bad_number()
Plumb "struct key_value_info" through all code paths that end in
die_bad_number(), which lets us remove the helper functions that read
analogous values from "struct config_reader". As a result, nothing reads
config_reader.config_kvi any more, so remove that too.

In config.c, this requires changing the signature of
git_configset_get_value() to 'return' "kvi" in an out parameter so that
git_configset_get_<type>() can pass it to git_config_<type>(). Only
numeric types will use "kvi", so for non-numeric types (e.g.
git_configset_get_string()), pass NULL to indicate that the out
parameter isn't needed.

Outside of config.c, config callbacks now need to pass "ctx->kvi" to any
of the git_config_<type>() functions that parse a config string into a
number type. Included is a .cocci patch to make that refactor.

The only exceptional case is builtin/config.c, where git_config_<type>()
is called outside of a config callback (namely, on user-provided input),
so config source information has never been available. In this case,
die_bad_number() defaults to a generic, but perfectly descriptive
message. Let's provide a safe, non-NULL for "kvi" anyway, but make sure
not to change the message.

a4e7e317f8 config: add ctx arg to config_fn_t
Add a new "const struct config_context *ctx" arg to config_fn_t to hold
additional information about the config iteration operation.
config_context has a "struct key_value_info kvi" member that holds
metadata about the config source being read (e.g. what kind of config
source it is, the filename, etc). In this series, we're only interested
in .kvi, so we could have just used "struct key_value_info" as an arg,
but config_context makes it possible to add/adjust members in the future
without changing the config_fn_t signature. We could also consider other
ways of organizing the args (e.g. moving the config name and value into
config_context or key_value_info), but in my experiments, the
incremental benefit doesn't justify the added complexity (e.g. a
config_fn_t will sometimes invoke another config_fn_t but with a
different config value).

In subsequent commits, the .kvi member will replace the global "struct
config_reader" in config.c, making config iteration a global-free
operation. It requires much more work for the machinery to provide
meaningful values of .kvi, so for now, merely change the signature and
call sites, pass NULL as a placeholder value, and don't rely on the arg
in any meaningful way.

Most of the changes are performed by
contrib/coccinelle/config_fn_ctx.pending.cocci, which, for every
config_fn_t:

- Modifies the signature to accept "const struct config_context *ctx"
- Passes "ctx" to any inner config_fn_t, if needed
- Adds UNUSED attributes to "ctx", if needed

Most config_fn_t instances are easily identified by seeing if they are
called by the various config functions. Most of the remaining ones are
manually named in the .cocci patch. Manual cleanups are still needed,
but the majority of it is trivial; it's either adjusting config_fn_t
that the .cocci patch didn't catch, or adding forward declarations of
"struct config_context ctx" to make the signatures make sense.

The non-trivial changes are in cases where we are invoking a config_fn_t
outside of config machinery, and we now need to decide what value of
"ctx" to pass. These cases are:

- trace2/tr2_cfg.c:tr2_cfg_set_fl()

  This is indirectly called by git_config_set() so that the trace2
  machinery can notice the new config values and update its settings
  using the tr2 config parsing function, i.e. tr2_cfg_cb().

- builtin/checkout.c:checkout_main()

  This calls git_xmerge_config() as a shorthand for parsing a CLI arg.
  This might be worth refactoring away in the future, since
  git_xmerge_config() can call git_default_config(), which can do much
  more than just parsing.

Handle them by creating a KVI_INIT macro that initializes "struct
key_value_info" to a reasonable default, and use that to construct the
"ctx" arg.

69f4da8ead setup.c: don't setup in discover_git_directory()
discover_git_directory() started modifying the_repository in ebaf3bcf1a
(repository: move global r_f_p_c to repo struct, 2021-06-17), when, in
the repository setup process, we started copying members from the
"struct repository_format" we're inspecting to the appropriate "struct
repository". However, discover_git_directory() isn't actually used in
the setup process (its only caller in the Git binary is
read_early_config()), so it shouldn't be doing this setup at all!

As explained by 16ac8b8db6 (setup: introduce the
discover_git_directory() function, 2017-03-13) and the comment on its
declaration, discover_git_directory() is intended to be an entrypoint
into setup.c machinery that allows the Git directory to be discovered
without side effects, e.g. so that read_early_config() can read
".git/config" before the_repository has been set up.

Fortunately, we didn't start to rely on this unintended behavior between
then and now, so we let's just remove it. It isn't harming anyone, but
it's confusing.

3867f6d650 repository: move 'repository_format_worktree_config' to repo scope
Move 'repository_format_worktree_config' out of the global scope and into
the 'repository' struct. This change is similar to how
'repository_format_partial_clone' was moved in ebaf3bcf1a (repository: move
global r_f_p_c to repo struct, 2021-06-17), adding it to the 'repository'
struct and updating 'setup.c' & 'repository.c' functions to assign the value
appropriately.

The primary goal of this change is to be able to load the worktree config of
a submodule depending on whether that submodule - not its superproject - has
'extensions.worktreeConfig' enabled. To ensure 'do_git_config_sequence()'
has access to the newly repo-scoped configuration, add a 'struct repository'
argument to 'do_git_config_sequence()' and pass it the 'repo' value from
'config_with_options()'.

Finally, add/update tests in 't3007-ls-files-recurse-submodules.sh' to
verify 'extensions.worktreeConfig' is read an used independently by
superprojects and submodules.

e35f202b45 setup: trace bare repository setups
safe.bareRepository=explicit is a safer default mode of operation, since
it guards against the embedded bare repository attack [1]. Most end
users don't use bare repositories directly, so they should be able to
set safe.bareRepository=explicit, with the expectation that they can
reenable bare repositories by specifying GIT_DIR or --git-dir.

However, the user might use a tool that invokes Git on bare repositories
without setting GIT_DIR (e.g. "go mod" will clone bare repositories
[2]), so even if a user wanted to use safe.bareRepository=explicit, it
wouldn't be feasible until their tools learned to set GIT_DIR.

To make this transition easier, add a trace message to note when we
attempt to set up a bare repository without setting GIT_DIR. This allows
users and tool developers to audit which of their tools are problematic
and report/fix the issue.  When they are sufficiently confident, they
would switch over to "safe.bareRepository=explicit".

Note that this uses trace2_data_string(), which isn't supported by the
"normal" GIT_TRACE2 target, only _EVENT or _PERF.

65156bb7ec treewide: remove double forward declaration of read_in_full
cache.h's nature of a dumping ground of includes prevented it from

of having a double forward declaration of the read_in_full() function

read_in_full() from cache.h to wrapper.h, and wrapper.h isn't littered
with unrelated and scary #defines, get rid of the extra forward
declaration and just have compat/pread.c include wrapper.h.

like to say a bit more about it, e.g. when using a platform-dependent

something.

To allow for that, collect that information and hand it back to the
caller (whose responsibility it is to show it or not).

Note: We do not actually fill in any platform-dependent information yet,

8d1a744820 setup.c: create safe.bareRepository
There is a known social engineering attack that takes advantage of the
fact that a working tree can include an entire bare repository,
including a config file. A user could run a Git command inside the bare
repository thinking that the config file of the 'outer' repository would
be used, but in reality, the bare repository's config file (which is
attacker-controlled) is used, which may result in arbitrary code
execution. See [1] for a fuller description and deeper discussion.

A simple mitigation is to forbid bare repositories unless specified via
`--git-dir` or `GIT_DIR`. In environments that don't use bare
repositories, this would be minimally disruptive.

Create a config variable, `safe.bareRepository`, that tells Git whether
or not to die() when working with a bare repository. This config is an
enum of:

- "all": allow all bare repositories (this is the default)
- "explicit": only allow bare repositories specified via --git-dir
  or GIT_DIR.

If we want to protect users from such attacks by default, neither value
will suffice - "all" provides no protection, but "explicit" is
impractical for bare repository users. A more usable default would be to
allow only non-embedded bare repositories ([2] contains one such
proposal), but detecting if a repository is embedded is potentially
non-trivial, so this work is not implemented in this series.

not because of security or correctness concerns [1].

3b0bf27049 setup: tighten ownership checks post CVE-2022-24765
8959555cee (setup_git_directory(): add an owner check for the top-level
directory, 2022-03-02), adds a function to check for ownership of
repositories using a directory that is representative of it, and ways to
add exempt a specific repository from said check if needed, but that
check didn't account for owership of the gitdir, or (when used) the
gitfile that points to that gitdir.

An attacker could create a git repository in a directory that they can
write into but that is owned by the victim to work around the fix that
was introduced with CVE-2022-24765 to potentially run code as the
victim.

An example that could result in privilege escalation to root in *NIX would
be to set a repository in a shared tmp directory by doing (for example):

  $ git -C /tmp init

To avoid that, extend the ensure_valid_ownership function to be able to
check for all three paths.

This will have the side effect of tripling the number of stat() calls
when a repository is detected, but the effect is expected to be likely
minimal, as it is done only once during the directory walk in which Git
looks for a repository.

Additionally make sure to resolve the gitfile (if one was used) to find
the relevant gitdir for checking.

While at it change the message printed on failure so it is clear we are
referring to the repository by its worktree (or gitdir if it is bare) and
not to a specific directory.

c37c6dc6a7 setup: don't die if realpath(3) fails on getcwd(3)
Prior to Git 2.35.0, git could be run from an inaccessible working
directory so long as the git repository specified by options and/or
environment variables was accessible.  For example:

    git init repo
    mkdir -p a/b
    cd a/b
    chmod u-x ..
    git -C "${PWD%/a/b}/repo" status

If this example seems a bit contrived, consider running with the
repository owner as a substitute UID (e.g. with runuser(1) or sudo(8))
without ensuring the working directory is accessible by that user.

The code added by e6f8861bd4 ("setup: introduce
startup_info->original_cwd") to preserve the working directory attempts
to normalize the path using strbuf_realpath().  If that fails, as in the
case above, it is treated as a fatal error.

This commit treats strbuf_realpath() errors as non-fatal.  If an error
occurs, setup_original_cwd() will continue without applying removal
prevention for cwd, resulting in the pre-2.35.0 behavior.  The risk
should be minimal, since git will not operate on a repository with
inaccessible ancestors, this behavior is only known to occur when cwd is
a descendant of the repository, an ancestor of cwd is inaccessible, and
no ancestors of the repository are inaccessible.

0f85c4a30b setup: opt-out of check with safe.directory=*
With the addition of the safe.directory in 8959555ce
(setup_git_directory(): add an owner check for the top-level directory,
2022-03-02) released in v2.35.2, we are receiving feedback from a
variety of users about the feature.

Some users have a very large list of shared repositories and find it
cumbersome to add this config for every one of them.

In a more difficult case, certain workflows involve running Git commands
within containers. The container boundary prevents any global or system
config from communicating `safe.directory` values from the host into the
container. Further, the container almost always runs as a different user
than the owner of the directory in the host.

To simplify the reactions necessary for these users, extend the
definition of the safe.directory config value to include a possible '*'
value. This value implies that all directories are safe, providing a
single setting to opt-out of this protection.

Note that an empty assignment of safe.directory clears all previous
values, and this is already the case with the "if (!value || !*value)"
condition.

8959555cee setup_git_directory(): add an owner check for the top-level directory
It poses a security risk to search for a git directory outside of the
directories owned by the current user.

For example, it is common e.g. in computer pools of educational
institutes to have a "scratch" space: a mounted disk with plenty of
space that is regularly swiped where any authenticated user can create
a directory to do their work. Merely navigating to such a space with a
Git-enabled `PS1` when there is a maliciously-crafted `/scratch/.git/`
can lead to a compromised account.

The same holds true in multi-user setups running Windows, as `C:\` is
writable to every authenticated user by default.

To plug this vulnerability, we stop Git from accepting top-level
directories owned by someone other than the current user. We avoid
looking at the ownership of each and every directories between the
current and the top-level one (if there are any between) to avoid
introducing a performance bottleneck.

This new default behavior is obviously incompatible with the concept of
shared repositories, where we expect the top-level directory to be owned
by only one of its legitimate users. To re-enable that use case, we add
support for adding exceptions from the new default behavior via the
config setting `safe.directory`.

The `safe.directory` config setting is only respected in the system and
global configs, not from repository configs or via the command-line, and
can have multiple values to allow for multiple shared repositories.

We are particularly careful to provide a helpful message to any user
trying to use a shared repository.

e6f8861bd4 setup: introduce startup_info->original_cwd
Removing the current working directory causes all subsequent git
commands run from that directory to get confused and fail with a message
about being unable to read the current working directory:

    $ git status
    fatal: Unable to read current working directory: No such file or directory

Non-git commands likely have similar warnings or even errors, e.g.

    $ bash -c 'echo hello'
    shell-init: error retrieving current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent directories: No such file or directory
    hello

This confuses end users, particularly since the command they get the
error from is not the one that caused the problem; the problem came from
the side-effect of some previous command.

We would like to avoid removing the current working directory of our
parent process; towards this end, introduce a new variable,
startup_info->original_cwd, that tracks the current working directory
that we inherited from our parent process.  For convenience of later
comparisons, we prefer that this new variable store a path relative to
the toplevel working directory (thus much like 'prefix'), except without
the trailing slash.

Subsequent commits will make use of this new variable.

Move repository_format_partial_clone, which is currently a global

partial clone config will be done in a subsequent commit - this is split
into its own commit because of the extent of the changes needed.)

The new repo-specific variable cannot be set in
check_repository_format_gently() (as is currently), because that
function does not know which repo it is operating on (or even whether
the value is important); therefore this responsibility is delegated to
the outermost caller that knows. Of all the outermost callers that know
(found by looking at all functions that call clear_repository_format()),
I looked at those that either read from the main Git directory or write
into a struct repository. These callers have been modified accordingly
(write to the_repository in the former case and write to the given
struct repository in the latter case).

However, this commit forgot to update "startup_info->prefix" after

Move the (possible) precomposition towards the end of
setup_git_directory_gently(), so that precompose_string_if_needed()
can use git_config_get_bool("core.precomposeunicode") correctly.

Keep prefix, startup_info->prefix and GIT_PREFIX_ENVIRONMENT all in sync.

And as a result, the prefix no longer needs to be precomposed in git.c

ec91ffca04 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:

  git config --file=.git/config core.repositoryformatversion 1

should still suffice.

62f2eca606 repository: allow repository format upgrade with extensions
Now that we officially permit repository extensions in repository
format v0, permit upgrading a repository with extensions from v0 to v1
as well.

For example, this means a repository where the user has set
"extensions.preciousObjects" can use "git fetch --filter=blob:none
origin" to upgrade the repository to use v1 and the partial clone
extension.

To avoid mistakes, continue to forbid repository format upgrades in v0
repositories with an unrecognized extension.  This way, a v0 user
using a misspelled extension field gets a chance to correct the
mistake before updating to the less forgiving v1 format.

While we're here, make the error message for failure to upgrade the
repository format a bit shorter, and present it as an error, not a
warning.

11664196ac Revert "check_repository_format_gently(): refuse extensions for old repositories"
This reverts commit 14c7fa269e.

The core.repositoryFormatVersion field was introduced in ab9cb76f66
(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 00a09d57eb
(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 14c7fa269e
(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 14c7fa269e 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
14c7fa269e 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.

Previously, extensions were recognized regardless of repository format
version.  If the user sets an undefined "extensions" value on a
repository of version 0 and that value is used by a future git version,
they might get an undesired result.

Because all extensions now also upgrade repository versions, tightening
the check would help avoid this for future extensions.

4d0e8996ec Merge branch 'am/real-path-fix'
The real_path() convenience function can easily be misused; with a
bit of code refactoring in the callers' side, its use has been
eliminated.

* am/real-path-fix:
  get_superproject_working_tree(): return strbuf
  real_path_if_valid(): remove unsafe API
  real_path: remove unsafe API
  set_git_dir: fix crash when used with real_path()

An earlier update to show the location of working tree in the error
message did not consider the possibility that a git command may be
run in a bare repository, which has been corrected.

5c20398699 prefix_path: show gitdir if worktree unavailable
If there is no worktree at present, we can still hint the user about
Git's current directory by showing them the absolute path to the Git
directory. Even though the Git directory doesn't make it as easy to
locate the worktree in question, it can still help a user figure out
what's going on while developing a script.

This fixes a segmentation fault introduced in e0020b2f
("prefix_path: show gitdir when arg is outside repo", 2020-02-14).

3d7747e318 real_path: remove unsafe API
Returning a shared buffer invites very subtle bugs due to reentrancy or
multi-threading, as demonstrated by the previous patch.

There was an unfinished effort to abolish this [1].

Let's finally rid of `real_path()`, using `strbuf_realpath()` instead.

This patch uses a local `strbuf` for most places where `real_path()` was
previously called.

However, two places return the value of `real_path()` to the caller. For
them, a `static` local `strbuf` was added, effectively pushing the
problem one level higher:
    read_gitfile_gently()
    get_superproject_working_tree()

0915a5b4cd set_git_dir: fix crash when used with real_path()
`real_path()` returns result from a shared buffer, inviting subtle
reentrance bugs. One of these bugs occur when invoked this way:
    set_git_dir(real_path(git_dir))

In this case, `real_path()` has reentrance:
    real_path
    read_gitfile_gently
    repo_set_gitdir
    setup_git_env
    set_git_dir_1
    set_git_dir

Later, `set_git_dir()` uses its now-dead parameter:
    !is_absolute_path(path)

Fix this by using a dedicated `strbuf` to hold `strbuf_realpath()`.

cfe3917c85 setup: allow check_repository_format to read repository format
In some cases, we will want to not only check the repository format, but
extract the information that we've gained.  To do so, allow
check_repository_format to take a pointer to struct repository_format.
Allow passing NULL for this argument if we're not interested in the
information, and pass NULL for all existing callers.  A future patch
will make use of this information.

e0020b2f82 prefix_path: show gitdir when arg is outside repo
When developing a script, it can be painful to understand why Git thinks
something is outside the current repo, if the current repo isn't what
the user thinks it is. Since this can be tricky to diagnose, especially
in cases like submodules or nested worktrees, let's give the user a hint
about which repository is offended about that path.
