ci(dockerized): do show the result of failing tests again
The quality of tests and test suites is most apparent not when
everything passes, but in how quickly bugs can be identified,
analyzed, and resolved after test failures occur.
As such, it is an unfortunate side effect of 2a21098b98a (github: adapt
containerized jobs to be rootless, 2025-01-10) that the output of failed
test cases, which was shown before that change directly in the build
logs, is now no longer shown at all.
The reason is a side effect of trying to run the build and the tests
with permissions other than the `root` user, but without providing the
prerequisite permissions to signal what tests failed and whose output
hence needs to be included in the logs.
The way this signaling works is for the workflow to write into
special-purpose files whose path is specific to the current workflow
step and which can be accessed via the `$GITHUB_ENV` environment
variable, which differs between workflow steps. It is this file that is
missing write permission for the `builder` user that was introduced in
above-mentioned commit.
The solution is simple: make the file world-writable.
Technically, this write permission should be removed after the step has
completed, if proper security practices were to be upheld, but since
nothing uses that file again, it does not matter, and the fix is more
succinct this way.
This commit is best viewed with `--color-words`.

fast-import: add 'strip-if-invalid' mode to --signed-commits=<mode>
Tools like `git filter-repo`[1] use `git fast-export` and
`git fast-import` to rewrite repository history. When rewriting
history using one such tool though, commit signatures might become
invalid because the commits they sign changed due to the changes
in the repository history made by the tool between the fast-export
and the fast-import steps.
Note that as far as signature handling goes:
* Since fast-export doesn't know what changes filter-repo may make
to the stream, it can't know whether the signatures will still be
valid.
* Since filter-repo doesn't know what history canonicalizations
fast-export performed (and it performs a few), it can't know whether
the signatures will still be valid.
* Therefore, fast-import is the only process in the pipeline that
can know whether a specified signature remains valid.
Having invalid signatures in a rewritten repository could be
confusing, so users rewritting history might prefer to simply
discard signatures that are invalid at the fast-import step.
For example a common use case is to rewrite only "recent" history.
While specifying commit ranges corresponding to "recent" commits
could work, users worry about getting it wrong and want to just
automatically rewrite everything, expecting older commit signatures
to be untouched.
To let them do that, let's add a new 'strip-if-invalid' mode to the
`--signed-commits=<mode>` option of `git fast-import`.
It would be interesting for the `--signed-tags=<mode>` option to
have this mode too, but we leave that for a future improvement.
It might also be possible for `git fast-export` to have such a mode
in its `--signed-commits=<mode>` and `--signed-tags=<mode>`
options, but the use cases for it are much less clear, so we also
leave that for possible future improvements.
For now let's just die() if 'strip-if-invalid' is passed to these
options where it hasn't been implemented yet.

These callers expect that git_config_pathname() that returns 0 is a
signal that the variable they passed has a string they need to act
on. But with the introduction of ":(optional)path" earlier, that is
no longer the case. If the path specified by the configuration
variable is missing, their variable will get a NULL in it, and they
need to act on it (often, just refraining from copying it elsewhere).

config: really pretend missing :(optional) value is not there
Earlier we added support for a value spelled as ":(optional)path"
for configuration variables whose values are of type "path", with
the documented semantics "if the path is missing, behave as if such
a variable definition is not even there."
This has worked OK for code paths that reads configuration files and
stores the configured value as a string, where NULL in such a string
is treated as if the setting is not there, left as the default.
However, there are other code paths that do not _ignore_ such NULL
values and misbehave. "git config get --path" is one of them.
When git_config_pathname() helper function finds that the value of
the variable is an optional path *and* the path is missing, it
leaves the destination pointer intact (which usually is left to
NULL) and returns 0 to signal a success. format_config() helper
however assumed that the destination pointer always gets a string,
which no longer is the case, and segfaulted.
Make sure that git_config_pathname() clears the destination pointer
in such a case, and teach format_config() to react to the condition
by returning 1 (which is different from 0 that is a normal success
and negative that is an error) to its callers. Adjust the callers
to react to this new return value that tells them to pretend as if
they did not even see this partcular <key, value> pair.

This option could create a commit history which violates the assumption
that commits have non-decreasing commit timestamps. Warn against that in
both git-am(1) and git-rebase(1).
The genesis of this option is from git-am(1) and was added in 3f01ad66 (am: Add --committer-date-is-author-date option,
2009-01-22). The commit message doesn’t give us an example
of a use case, but the thread starter does:[1]
I've a big set of patches in a mbox file: there's sufficient info
inside for git-am to work.
Yet, each time I do import these, my sha1sums are changing because of
different commit dates.
I'd like to force the commit date to match the info/date from the time
I received the email (and therefore always get back the right
sha1sums).
So the motivation was to treat git-am(1) as an import command that
creates the same commit IDs.
Putting aside the question of whether you should be using git-am(1) for
importing commits, this approach is problematic:
• you still need to apply the commits to the same base if you want the
same hashes; and
• you need the same committer.
And if you expect the same committer, why is this person applying the
same patches multiple times with the goal of making *identical* commits?
That was all for git-am(1).
It was added to git-rebase(1) in 570ccad3 (rebase: add options passed to
git-am, 2009-03-18)[2] in order to plug options that could not be sent
on to git-am(1). At this point the utility of the option graduated to
making no sense; a use case for `git rebase --committer-date-is-author-
date` is still yet to be found.
Just warn against using this option on both commands and remind the user
to consider whether they really need it.

The ha field is serving two different purposes, which makes the code

there could never be hash collisions between lines of the two input
files. In reality, line_hash is used together with xdl_recmatch() to
ensure correct comparisons of lines, even when collisions occur.
To make this clearer, the old ha field has been split:
* line_hash: a straightforward hash of a line, independent of any
external context. Its type is uint64_t, as it comes from a fixed
width hash function.
* minimal_perfect_hash: Not a new concept, but now a separate
field. It comes from the classifier's general-purpose hash table,
which assigns each line a unique and minimal hash across the two
files. A size_t is used here because it's meant to be used to
index an array. This also avoids ` as usize` casts on the Rust

worktree list: fix column spacing
The output of "git worktree list" displays a table containing the
worktree path, HEAD OID and branch name for each worktree. The code
aligns the columns by measuring the visual width of the worktree path
when it is printed. Unfortunately it fails to use the visual width
when calculating the width of the column so, if any of the paths
contain a multibyte character, we can end up with excess padding
between columns. The simplest fix would be to replace strlen() with
utf8_strwidth() in measure_widths(). However that leaves us measuring
the visual width twice and the byte length once. By caching the visual
width and printing the padding separately to the worktree path, we only
need to calculate the visual width once and do not need the byte length
at all. The visual widths are stored in an arrays of structs rather
than an array of ints as the next commit will add more struct members.
Even if there are no multibyte characters in any of the paths we still
print an extra space between the path and the object id as the field
width is calculated as one plus the length of the path and we print an
explicit space as well. This is fixed by not printing the extra space.
The tests are updated to include multibyte characters in one of the
worktree paths and to check the spacing of the columns.

ci(windows-meson-test): handle options and output like other test jobs
The GitHub windows-meson-test jobs directly run "meson test" with the
--slice option. This means they skip all of the ci/lib.sh

1. They do not actually set any GIT_TEST_OPTS like --verbose-log or
-x.
2. They do not do the usual handle_failed_tests() magic to print test
failures or tar up failed directories.
As a result, you get almost no feedback at all when a test fails in this
job, making debugging rather tricky.
Let's try to make this behave more like the other CI jobs. Because we're
on Windows, we can't just use the normal run-build-and-tests.sh script.
Our build runs as a separate job (like the non-meson Windows job), and
then we parallelize the tests across several job slices. So we need
something like the run-test-slice.sh script that the "windows-test" job
uses.
In theory we could just swap out the "make" invocation there for
"meson". But it doesn't quite work, because "make" knows how to pull
GIT_TEST_OPTS out of GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS automatically. But for meson, we
have to extract them into the --test-args option ourselves. I tried
making the logic in run-test-slice.sh conditional, but there ended up

positives. E.g., it is not wrong to pass a buffer with { '1', '2', '\n' }
into strtoul(). Even though it is not NUL-terminated, it will stop at
the newline.
But in trying it out, it identified two problematic spots in our test
suite (which have now been adjusted):
1. The strtol() parsing in cache-tree.c was a real potential problem,
which would have been very hard to find otherwise (since it
required constructing a very specific broken index file).
2. The use of string functions in fsck_ident() were false positives,
because we knew that there was always a trailing newline which
would stop the functions from reading off the end of the buffer.
But the reasoning behind that is somewhat fragile, and silencing
those complaints made the code easier to reason about.
So even though this did not find any earth-shattering bugs, and even had
a few false positives, I'm sufficiently convinced that its complaints
are more helpful than hurtful. Let's turn it on by default (since the
test suite now runs cleanly with it) and see if it ever turns up any
other instances.

fsck: avoid parse_timestamp() on buffer that isn't NUL-terminated
In fsck_ident(), we parse the timestamp with parse_timestamp(), which is
really an alias for strtoumax(). But since our buffer may not be
NUL-terminated, this can trigger a complaint from ASan's
strict_string_checks mode. This is a false positive, since we know that
the buffer contains a trailing newline (which we checked earlier in the
function), and that strtoumax() would stop there.
But it is worth working around ASan's complaint. One is because that
will let us turn on strict_string_checks by default, which has helped
catch other real problems. And two is that the safety of the current
code is very hard to reason about (it subtly depends on distant code
which could change).
One option here is to just parse the number left-to-right ourselves. But
we care about the size of a timestamp_t and detecting overflow, since
that's part of the point of these checks. And doing that correctly is
tricky. So we'll instead just pull the digits into a separate,
NUL-terminated buffer, and use that to call parse_timestamp().

fsck: avoid strcspn() in fsck_ident()
We may be operating on a buffer that is not NUL-terminated, but we use
strcspn() to parse it. This is OK in practice, as discussed in 8e4309038f (fsck: do not assume NUL-termination of buffers, 2023-01-19),
because we know there is at least a trailing newline in our buffer, and
we always pass "\n" to strcspn(). So we know it will stop before running
off the end of the buffer.
But this is a subtle point to hang our memory safety hat on. And it
confuses ASan's strict_string_checks mode, even though it is technically
a false positive (that mode complains that we have no NUL, which is
true, but it does not know that we have verified the presence of the
newline already).
Let's instead open-code the loop. As a bonus, this makes the logic more
obvious (to my mind, anyway). The current code skips forward with
strcspn until it hits "<", ">", or "\n". But then it must check which it
saw to decide if that was what we expected or not, duplicating some
logic between what's in the strcspn() and what's in the domain logic.

fsck: assert newline presence in fsck_ident()
The fsck code purports to handle buffers that are not NUL-terminated,
but fsck_ident() uses some string functions. This works OK in practice,
as explained in 8e4309038f (fsck: do not assume NUL-termination of
buffers, 2023-01-19). Before calling fsck_ident() we'll have called
verify_headers(), which makes sure we have at least a trailing newline.
And none of our string-like functions will walk past that newline.
However, that makes this code at the top of fsck_ident() very confusing:
*ident = strchrnul(*ident, '\n');
if (**ident == '\n')
(*ident)++;
We should always see that newline, or our memory safety assumptions have
been violated! Further, using strchrnul() is weird, since the whole
point is that if the newline is not there, we don't necessarily have a
NUL at all, and might read off the end of the buffer.
So let's have callers pass in the boundary of our buffer, which lets us
safely find the newline with memchr(). And if it is not there, this is a
BUG(), because it means our caller did not validate the input with
verify_headers() as it was supposed to (and we are better off bailing

cache-tree: avoid strtol() on non-string buffer
A cache-tree extension entry in the index looks like this:
<name> NUL <entry_nr> SPACE <subtree_nr> NEWLINE <binary_oid>
where the "_nr" items are human-readable base-10 ASCII. We parse them
with strtol(), even though we do not have a NUL-terminated string (we'd
generally have an mmap() of the on-disk index file). For a well-formed
entry, this is not a problem; strtol() will stop when it sees the
newline. But there are two problems:
1. A corrupted entry could omit the newline, causing us to read
further. You'd mostly get stopped by seeing non-digits in the oid
field (and if it is likewise truncated, there will still be 20 or
more bytes of the index checksum). So it's possible, though
unlikely, to read off the end of the mmap'd buffer. Of course a
malicious index file can fake the oid and the index checksum to all
(ASCII) 0's.
This is further complicated by the fact that mmap'd buffers tend to
be zero-padded up to the page boundary. So to run off the end, the
index size also has to be a multiple of the page size. This is also
unlikely, though you can construct a malicious index file that
matches this.
The security implications aren't too interesting. The index file is
a local file anyway (so you can't attack somebody by cloning, but
only if you convince them to operate in a .git directory you made,
at which point attacking .git/config is much easier). And it's just
a read overflow via strtol(), which is unlikely to buy you much
beyond a crash.
2. ASan has a strict_string_checks option, which tells it to make sure
that options to string functions (like strtol) have some eventual
NUL, without regard to what the function would actually do (like
stopping at a newline here). This option sometimes has false
positives, but it can point to sketchy areas (like this one) where
the input we use doesn't exhibit a problem, but different input
_could_ cause us to misbehave.
Let's fix it by just parsing the values ourselves with a helper function
that is careful not to go past the end of the buffer. There are a few
behavior changes here that should not matter:
- We do not consider overflow, as strtol() would. But nor did the
original code. However, we don't trust the value we get from the
on-disk file, and if it says to read 2^30 entries, we would notice
that we do not have that many and bail before reading off the end of
the buffer.
- Our helper does not skip past extra leading whitespace as strtol()
would, but according to gitformat-index(5) there should not be any.
- The original quit parsing at a newline or a NUL byte, but now we
insist on a newline (which is what the documentation says, and what
Git has always produced).
Since we are providing our own helper function, we can tweak the
interface a bit to make our lives easier. The original code does not use
strtol's "end" pointer to find the end of the parsed data, but rather
uses a separate loop to advance our "buf" pointer to the trailing
newline. We can instead provide a helper that advances "buf" as it
parses, letting us read strictly left-to-right through the buffer.
I didn't add a new test here. It's surprisingly difficult to construct
an index of exactly the right size due to the way we pad entries. But it
is easy to trigger the problem in existing tests when using ASan's
strict string checking, coupled with a recent change to use NO_MMAP with
ASan builds. So:
make SANITIZE=address
cd t
ASAN_OPTIONS=strict_string_checks=1 ./t0090-cache-tree.sh
triggers it reliably. Technically it is not deterministic because there
is ~8% chance (it's 1-(255/256)^20, or ^32 for sha256) that the trailing
checksum hash has a NUL byte in it. But we compute enough cache-trees in
the course of that script that we are very likely to hit the problem in
one of them.
We can look at making strict_string_checks the default for ASan builds,
but there are some other cases we'd want to fix first.

Makefile: turn on NO_MMAP when building with ASan
Git often uses mmap() to access on-disk files. This leaves a blind spot
in our SANITIZE=address builds, since ASan does not seem to handle mmap
at all. Nor does the OS notice most out-of-bounds access, since it tends
to round up to the nearest page size (so depending on how big the map
is, you might have to overrun it by up to 4095 bytes to trigger a
segfault).
The previous commit demonstrates a memory bug that we missed. We could
have made a new test where the out-of-bounds access was much larger, or
where the mapped file ended closer to a page boundary. But the point of
running the test suite with sanitizers is to catch these problems
without having to construct specific tests.
Let's enable NO_MMAP for our ASan builds by default, which should give
us better coverage. This does increase the memory usage of Git, since
we're copying from the filesystem into heap. But the repositories in the
test suite tend to be small, so the overhead isn't really noticeable
(and ASan already has quite a performance penalty).
There are a few other known bugs that this patch will help flush out.
However, they aren't directly triggered in the test suite (yet). So
it's safe to turn this on now without breaking the test suite, which
will help us add new tests to demonstrate those other bugs as we fix
them.

pack-bitmap: handle name-hash lookups in incremental bitmaps
If a bitmap has a name-hash cache, it is an array of 32-bit integers,
one per entry in the bitmap, which we've mmap'd from the .bitmap file.
We access it directly like this:
if (bitmap_git->hashes)
hash = get_be32(bitmap_git->hashes + index_pos);
That works for both regular pack bitmaps and for non-incremental midx
bitmaps. There is one bitmap_index with one "hashes" array, and
index_pos is within its bounds (we do the bounds-checking when we load
the bitmap).
But for an incremental midx bitmap, we have a linked list of
bitmap_index structs, and each one has only its own small slice of the
name-hash array. If index_pos refers to an object that is not in the
first bitmap_git of the chain, then we'll access memory outside of the
bounds of its "hashes" array, and often outside of the mmap.
Instead, we should walk through the list until we find the bitmap_index
which serves our index_pos, and use its hash (after adjusting index_pos
to make it relative to the slice we found). This is exactly what we do
elsewhere for incremental midx lookups (like the pack_pos_to_midx() call
a few lines above). But we can't use existing helpers like
midx_for_object() here, because we're walking through the chain of
bitmap_index structs (each of which refers to a midx), not the chain of
incremental multi_pack_index structs themselves.
The problem is triggered in the test suite, but we don't get a segfault
because the out-of-bounds index is too small. The OS typically rounds
our mmap up to the nearest page size, so we just end up accessing some
extra zero'd memory. Nor do we catch it with ASan, since it doesn't seem
to instrument mmaps at all. But if we build with NO_MMAP, then our maps
are replaced with heap allocations, which ASan does check. And so:
make NO_MMAP=1 SANITIZE=address
cd t
./t5334-incremental-multi-pack-index.sh
does show the problem (and this patch makes it go away).

merge-ort: fix failing merges in special corner case
At GitHub, we had a repository that was triggering
git: merge-ort.c:3032: process_renames: Assertion `newinfo && !newinfo->merged.clean` failed.
during git replay.
This sounds similar to the somewhat recent f6ecb603ff8a (merge-ort: fix
directory rename on top of source of other rename/delete, 2025-08-06),
but the cause is different. Unlike that case, there are no
rename-to-self situations arising in this case, and new to this case it
can only be triggered during a replay operation on the 2nd or later
commit being replayed, never on the first merge in the sequence.
To trigger, the repository needs:
* an upstream which:
* renames a file to a different directory, e.g.
old/file -> new/file
* leaves other files remaining in the original directory (so that
e.g. "old/" still exists upstream even though file has been
removed from it and placed elsewhere)
* a topic branch being rebased where:
* a commit in the sequence:
* modifies old/file
* a subsequent commit in the sequence being replayed:
* does NOT touch *anything* under new/
* does NOT touch old/file
* DOES modify other paths under old/
* does NOT have any relevant renames that we need to detect
_anywhere_ elsewhere in the tree (meaning this interacts
interestingly with both directory renames and cached renames)
In such a case, the assertion will trigger. The fix turns out to be
surprisingly simple. I have a very vague recollection that I actually
considered whether to add such an if-check years ago when I added the
very similar one for oldinfo in 1b6b902d95a5 (merge-ort:
process_renames() now needs more defensiveness, 2021-01-19), but I think
I couldn't figure out a possible way to trigger it and was worried at
the time that if I didn't know how to trigger it then I wasn't so sure
that simply skipping it was correct. Waiting did give me a chance to
put more thorough tests and checks into place for the rename-to-self
cases a few months back, which I might not have found as easily
otherwise. Anyway, put the check in place now and add a test that
demonstrates the fix.
Note that this bug, as demonstrated by the conditions listed above,
runs at the intersection of relevant renames, trivial directory
resolutions, and cached renames. All three of those optimizations are
ones that unfortunately make the code (and testcases!) a bit more
complex, and threading all three makes it a bit more so. However, the
testcase isn't crazy enough that I'd expect no one to ever hit it in
practice, and was confused why we didn't see it before. After some
digging, I discovered that merge.directoryRenames=false is a workaround
to this bug, and GitHub used that setting until recently (it was a
"temporary" match-what-libgit2-does piece of code that lasted years
longer than intended). Since the conditions I gave above for triggering
this bug rule out the possibility of there being directory renames, one
might assume that it shouldn't matter whether you try to detect such
renames if there aren't any. However, due to commit a16e8efe5c2b
(merge-ort: fix merge.directoryRenames=false, 2025-03-13), the heavy
hammer used there means that merge.directoryRenames=false ALSO turns off
rename caching, which is critical to triggering the bug. This becomes
a bit more than an aside since...
Re-reading that old commit, a16e8efe5c2b (merge-ort: fix
merge.directoryRenames=false, 2025-03-13), it appears that the solution
to this latest bug might have been at least a partial alternative
solution to that old commit. And it may have been an improved
alternative (or at least help implement one), since it may be able to
avoid the heavy-handed disabling of rename cache. That might be an
interesting future thing to investigate, but is not critical for the
current fix. However, since I spent time digging it all up, at least
leave a small comment tweak breadcrumb to help some future reader
(myself or others) who wants to dig further to connect the dots a little

t/unit-tests: add UTF-8 width tests for CJK chars
The file "builtin/repo.c" uses utf8_strwidth() to calculate the display
width of UTF-8 characters in a table, but the resulting output is still
misaligned. Add test cases for both utf8_strwidth and utf8_strnwidth to
verify that they correctly compute the display width for UTF-8
characters.
Also updated the build configuration in Makefile and meson.build to
include the new test suite in the build process.

Use Perforce arm64 binary on macOS CI jobs
The previous step replaced deprecated macos-13 image with macos-14
image on GitHub Actions CI. While x86-64 binaries can work there,
because macos-14 images are arm64 based (we could replace it with
macos-14-large that is x86-64), it makes more sense to use arm64
binary there. Without this change, we have been getting unusually
higher rate of failures from random macOS CI jobs railing to run
t98xx series of tests.
