Merge v2.37.1#3948
Conversation
When building the Pacman packages, we technically do not need the full `build-installers` artifact (which is substantially larger than the `makepkg-git` artifact). However, the former is already cached and includes the latter's files. And it is _so_ much faster to download the cached (larger) artifact than to download the smaller `makepkg-git` artifact from Azure Pipelines.

Git's regular Makefile mentions that HOST_CPU should be defined when cross-compiling Git: https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/blob/37796bca76ef4180c39ee508ca3e42c0777ba444/Makefile#L438-L439 This is then used to set the GIT_HOST_CPU variable when compiling Git: https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/blob/37796bca76ef4180c39ee508ca3e42c0777ba444/Makefile#L1337-L1341 Then, when the user runs `git version --build-options`, it returns that value: https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/blob/37796bca76ef4180c39ee508ca3e42c0777ba444/help.c#L658 This commit adds the same functionality to the CMake configuration.

This simplifies the workflow dramatically, as well as accelerating it because the Action recently learned to use the partial clone/parallel checkout features of Git. Note that we have to reinstate that `/usr/bin/git` hack (a shell script that simply redirects to `/mingw64/bin/git.exe`) in the `pkg` job manually, since we no longer cache the `build-installers` artifact _after_ installing that hack in `bundle-artifacts`.

The intention of this change is to align with how the top-level git `Makefile` defines its own test target (which also internally calls `$(MAKE) -C t/ all`). This change also ensures the consistency of `make -C contrib/subtree test` with other testing in CI executions (which rely on `$DEFAULT_TEST_TARGET` being defined as `prove`).

As reported in newren/git-filter-repo#225, it looks like 99 bytes is not really sufficient to represent e.g. the full path to Python when installed via Windows Store (and this path is used in the hasb bang line when installing scripts via `pip`). Let's increase it to what is probably the maximum sensible path size: MAX_PATH. This makes `parse_interpreter()` in line with what `lookup_prog()` handles.

We used to have that `make vcxproj` hack, but a hack it is. In the meantime, we have a much cleaner solution: using CMake, either explicitly, or even more conveniently via Visual Studio's built-in CMake support (simply open Git's top-level directory via File>Open>Folder...). Let's let the `README` reflect this. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>
This adds support for a new http.sslAutoClientCert config value. In cURL 7.77 or later the schannel backend does not automatically send client certificates from the Windows Certificate Store anymore.

Because `git subtree` (unlike most other `contrib` modules) is included as part of the standard release of Git for Windows, its stability should be verified as consistently as it is for the rest of git. By including the `git subtree` tests in the CI workflow, these tests are as much of a gate to merging and indicator of stability as the standard test suite.

On LLP64 systems, such as Windows, the size of `long`, `int`, etc. is only 32 bits (for backward compatibility). Git's use of `unsigned long` for file memory sizes in many places, rather than size_t, limits the handling of large files on LLP64 systems (commonly given as `>4GB`). Provide a minimum test for handling a >4GB file. The `hash-object` command, with the `--literally` and without `-w` option avoids writing the object, either loose or packed. This avoids the code paths hitting the `bigFileThreshold` config test code, the zlib code, and the pack code. Subsequent patches will walk the test's call chain, converting types to `size_t` (which is larger in LLP64 data models) where appropriate.

The previous commit adds a test that demonstrates a problem in the `hash-object --literally` command, manifesting in an unnecessary file size limit on systems using the LLP64 data model (which includes Windows). Walking the affected code path is `cmd_hash_object()` >> `hash_fd()` >> `hash_literally()` >> `hash_object_file_literally()`. The function `hash_object_file_literally()` is the first with a file length parameter (via a mem buffer). This commit changes the type of that parameter to the LLP64 compatible `size_t` type. There are no other uses of the function. The `strbuf` type is already `size_t` compatible. Note: The hash-object test does not yet pass. Subsequent commits will continue to walk the call tree's lower level functions to identify further fixes.

Continue walking the code path for the >4GB `hash-object --literally` test. The `hash_object_file_literally()` function internally uses both `hash_object_file()` and `write_object_file_prepare()`. Both function signatures use `unsigned long` rather than `size_t` for the mem buffer sizes. Use `size_t` instead, for LLP64 compatibility. While at it, convert those function's object's header buffer length to `size_t` for consistency. The value is already upcast to `uintmax_t` for print format compatibility. Note: The hash-object test still does not pass. A subsequent commit continues to walk the call tree's lower level hash functions to identify further fixes.

Correct some wording and inform users regarding the Visual Studio changes (from V16.6) to the default generator. Subsequent commits ensure that Git for Windows can be directly opened in modern Visual Studio without needing special configuration of the CMakeLists settings.

Continue walking the code path for the >4GB `hash-object --literally`
test to the hash algorithm step for LLP64 systems.
This patch lets the SHA1DC code use `size_t`, making it compatible with
LLP64 data models (as used e.g. by Windows).
The interested reader of this patch will note that we adjust the
signature of the `git_SHA1DCUpdate()` function without updating _any_
call site. This certainly puzzled at least one reviewer already, so here
is an explanation:
This function is never called directly, but always via the macro
`platform_SHA1_Update`, which is usually called via the macro
`git_SHA1_Update`. However, we never call `git_SHA1_Update()` directly
in `struct git_hash_algo`. Instead, we call `git_hash_sha1_update()`,
which is defined thusly:
static void git_hash_sha1_update(git_hash_ctx *ctx,
const void *data, size_t len)
{
git_SHA1_Update(&ctx->sha1, data, len);
}
i.e. it contains an implicit downcast from `size_t` to `unsigned long`
(before this here patch). With this patch, there is no downcast anymore.
With this patch, finally, the t1007-hash-object.sh "files over 4GB hash
literally" test case is fixed.

Just like the `hash-object --literally` code path, the `--stdin` code path also needs to use `size_t` instead of `unsigned long` to represent memory sizes, otherwise it would cause problems on platforms using the LLP64 data model (such as Windows). To limit the scope of the test case, the object is explicitly not written to the object store, nor are any filters applied. The `big` file from the previous test case is reused to save setup time; To avoid relying on that side effect, it is generated if it does not exist (e.g. when running via `sh t1007-*.sh --long --run=1,41`).

In Git-for-Windows, work on using ARM64 has progressed. The commit 2d94b77 (cmake: allow building for Windows/ARM64, 2020-12-04) failed to notice that /compat/vcbuild/vcpkg_install.bat will default to using the "x64-windows" architecture for the vcpkg installation if not set, but CMake is not told of this default. Commit 635b6d9 (vcbuild: install ARM64 dependencies when building ARM64 binaries, 2020-01-31) later updated vcpkg_install.bat to accept an arch (%1) parameter, but retained the default. This default is neccessary for the use case where the project directory is opened directly in Visual Studio, which will find and build a CMakeLists.txt file without any parameters, thus expecting use of the default setting. Also Visual studio will generate internal .sln solution and .vcxproj project files needed for some extension tools. Inform users of the additional .sln/.vcxproj generation. ** How to test: rm -rf '.vs' # remove old visual studio settings rm -rf 'compat/vcbuild/vcpkg' # remove any vcpkg downloads rm -rf 'contrib/buildsystems/out' # remove builds & CMake artifacts with a fresh Visual Studio Community Edition, File>>Open>>(git *folder*) to load the project (which will take some time!). check for successful compilation.

Reintroduce the 'core.useBuiltinFSMonitor' config setting (originally added in 0a756b2 (fsmonitor: config settings are repository-specific, 2021-03-05)) after its removal from the upstream version of FSMonitor. Upstream, the 'core.useBuiltinFSMonitor' setting was rendered obsolete by "overloading" the 'core.fsmonitor' setting to take a boolean value. However, several applications (e.g., 'scalar') utilize the original config setting, so it should be preserved for a deprecation period before complete removal: * if 'core.fsmonitor' is a boolean, the user is correctly using the new config syntax; do not use 'core.useBuiltinFSMonitor'. * if 'core.fsmonitor' is unspecified, use 'core.useBuiltinFSMonitor'. * if 'core.fsmonitor' is a path, override and use the builtin FSMonitor if 'core.useBuiltinFSMonitor' is 'true'; otherwise, use the FSMonitor hook indicated by the path. Additionally, for this deprecation period, advise users to switch to using 'core.fsmonitor' to specify their use of the builtin FSMonitor. Signed-off-by: Victoria Dye <vdye@github.com>

Ensure key CMake option values are part of the CMake output to facilitate user support when tool updates impact the wider CMake actions, particularly ongoing 'improvements' in Visual Studio. These CMake displays perform the same function as the build-options.txt provided in the main Git for Windows. CMake is already chatty. The setting of CMAKE_EXPORT_COMPILE_COMMANDS is also reported. Include the environment's CMAKE_EXPORT_COMPILE_COMMANDS value which may have been propogated to CMake's internal value. Testing the CMAKE_EXPORT_COMPILE_COMMANDS processing can be difficult in the Visual Studio environment, as it may be cached in many places. The 'environment' may include the OS, the user shell, CMake's own environment, along with the Visual Studio presets and caches. See previous commit for arefacts that need removing for a clean test.

In Git for Windows, `has_symlinks` is set to 0 by default. Therefore, we need to parse the config setting `core.symlinks` to know if it has been set to `true`. In `git init`, we must do that before copying the templates because they might contain symbolic links. Even if the support for symbolic links on Windows has not made it to upstream Git yet, we really should make sure that all the `core.*` settings are parsed before proceeding, as they might very well change the behavior of `git init` in a way the user intended.

On the topic of Git 2.37.1: I've noticed that our workflow to monitor for component updates did not pick up this release (and the others that came with it). I think that's because Junio tagged them a few days before publishing them, due to it being an embargoed release. Our workflow only picks up the last 48 hours from a feed IIRC. Now for embargoed git releases that's not a big problem, because you'll usually know about them in advance, but simillar things could probably happen with most of the components on github that we want to monitor. Do we need to increase that cutoff time? |
It's too bad that the feed does not report the true publication date but apparently uses the tagger date... Otherwise we could keep everything as-is. But yes, it's probably a wise idea to increase this to something like 7 days. |
Git for Windows v2.37.1 was a so-called "embargoed release", i.e. its release artifacts were built while the bugs and bug fixes were built in preparation for a coordinated security bug fix release.
Let's integrate the commits into Git for Windows' public
mainbranch.
