2025-05-28wincred: avoid buffer overflow in wcsncat()Taylor Blau
The wincred credential helper uses a static buffer ("target") as a unique key for storing and comparing against internal storage. It does this by building up a string is supposed to look like: git:$PROTOCOL://$USERNAME@$HOST/@PATH However, the static "target" buffer is declared as a wide string with no more than 1,024 wide characters. The first call to wcsncat() is almost correct (it copies no more than ARRAY_SIZE(target) wchar_t's), but does not account for the trailing NUL, introducing an off-by-one error. But subsequent calls to wcsncat() have an additional problem on top of the off-by-one. They do not account for the length of the existing wide string being built up in 'target'. So the following: $ perl -e ' my $x = "x" x 1_000; print "protocol=$x\nhost=$x\nusername=$x\npath=$x\n" ' | C\:/Program\ Files/Git/mingw64/libexec/git-core/git-credential-wincred.exe get will result in a segmentation fault from over-filling buffer. This bug is as old as the wincred helper itself, dating back to a6253da0f3 (contrib: add win32 credential-helper, 2012-07-27). Commit 8b2d219a3d (wincred: improve compatibility with windows versions, 2013-01-10) replaced the use of strncat() with wcsncat(), but retained the buggy behavior. Fix this by using a "target_append()" helper which accounts for both the length of the existing string within the buffer, as well as the trailing NUL character.

2025-05-12contrib: remove some scripts in "stats" directoryPatrick Steinhardt
The "stats" directory contains a couple of scripts to do some statistics on a repository: - "git-common-hash" shows the longest common hash prefixes and can be used to determine the minimum prefix length to use for object names to be unique. The script has last been touched in 53474eb92ff (contrib: update stats/mailmap script, 2012-12-12) and searching for it on the internet doesn't really surface any potential use cases or even mentions of it. Modern Git also shouldn't really need this tool as it knows to automatically scale printed prefixes via some heuristics. - "mailmap.pl" performs some statistics on the number of mailmapped commits in a repository. It has last been modified in 53474eb92ff (contrib: update stats/mailmap script, 2012-12-12) and has since been bitrotting. It doesn't even compile nowadays anymore: $ perl contrib/stats/mailmap.pl Experimental keys on scalar is now forbidden at contrib/stats/mailmap.pl line 57. Type of arg 1 to keys must be hash or array (not hash element) at contrib/stats/mailmap.pl line 57, near "}) " Experimental keys on scalar is now forbidden at contrib/stats/mailmap.pl line 57. Type of arg 1 to keys must be hash or array (not private variable) at contrib/stats/mailmap.pl line 57, near "$h)" Experimental keys on scalar is now forbidden at contrib/stats/mailmap.pl line 64. Type of arg 1 to keys must be hash or array (not private variable) at contrib/stats/mailmap.pl line 64, near "$h)" Execution of contrib/stats/mailmap.pl aborted due to compilation errors. This should be good-enough signal to indicate that nobody is using this script at all anymore. - "packinfo.pl" takes the output from git-verify-pack(1) and performs some pretty printing thereof. On the one hand it reformats the output to be easier to read and provide some summaries. On the other hand it may also print filenames of blobs. We don't have any replacement for this tool. Ideally, we should move its functionality into git-verify-pack(1) itself. Remove the first two scripts, but retain "packinfo.pl".

2025-05-12contrib: remove "git-new-workdir"Patrick Steinhardt
The "git-new-workdir" command has been introduced to make it possible to have a separate working directory in a different place. The command thus predates git-worktree(1), which is what people use nowadays to create any such working directory. As such, the script doesn't really have much of a reason to exist nowadays anymore. It also doesn't seem like the script is still in use: the last time it has received an update was in e32afab7b03 (git-new-workdir: don't fail if the target directory is empty, 2014-11-26), more than a decade ago.

2025-05-12contrib: remove "git-resurrect.sh"Patrick Steinhardt
The "git-resurrect.sh" script can be used to find traces of a branch tip in the reflog and resurrect that branch. Despite a couple of global cleanups, the script hasn't seen any activity since it was introduced in e1ff064e1bf (contrib git-resurrect: find traces of a branch name and resurrect it, 2009-02-04). Furthermore, the tool does not work with the "reftable" backend at all as it directly reads ".git/logs/HEAD". As reflogs are stored as part of the individual tables though that file wouldn't exist in a "reftable"- enabled repository. Last but not least, the tool doesn't even work unless it is explicitly invoked via `git resurrect` as it sources "git-sh-setup". As none of our build systems know to install this script, users thus have to go out of their way to really make it work, which is highly unlikely. Another source that indicates that this tool can be removed is a question for how to restore deleted branches on StackOverflow [1]. The top-voted answer uses git-reflog(1) directly and has received more than 3000 votes to date. While "git-resurrect.sh" is also mentioned, it only got 16 upvotes, and comments mention the above caveat that users have to do some manual setup to make it work. It's thus rather clear that the tool doesn't have a lot or even any users. Remove it.

2025-05-12contrib: remove "persistent-https" remote helperPatrick Steinhardt
The "persistent-https" remote helper supposedly speeds up SSL operations by running a daemon that keeps a connection open to a remote server. It is effectively unmaintained nowadays: the last time it received an update was in accb613afd2 (contrib/persistent-https: use Git version for build label, 2016-07-20) and its parent commits to make it compile with Go 1.7+. This Go toolchain is somewhat dated by now though and unsupported. The oldest still-supported toolchain is Go 1.23, which was released in August 2024. It is not possible to compile the remote helper with that Go version anymore: $ go version go version go1.23.8 linux/amd64 $ make case $(go version) in \ "go version go"1.[0-5].*) EQ=" " ;; *) EQ="=" ;; esac && \ go build -o git-remote-persistent-https \ -ldflags "-X main._BUILD_EMBED_LABEL${EQ}GIT_VERSION=2.49.0.943.g965a70ebf62" go: cannot find main module, but found .git/config in /home/pks/Development/git to create a module there, run: cd ../.. && go mod init make: *** [Makefile:31: git-remote-persistent-https] Error 1 The problem is that modern Go toolchains require a "go.mod" file, but we don't have any such files. This requirement exists since quite a while already, so it's clear that nobody has tried to use this remote helper anytime recent. Remove the remote helper.

2025-05-12contrib: remove "mw-to-git"Patrick Steinhardt
The "mw-to-git" directory contains tools for accessing MediaWiki via Git. The scripts are essentially unmaintained in Git: despite a couple of global cleanups, the last changes were a couple of security-related issues part of 9a8606465e8 (remote-mediawiki: use "sh" to eliminate unquoted commands, 2020-09-21) and its parents. We don't ever run any of the tests so it is more likely than not that many of the tests have been bitrotting, like e.g. documented in f8ab018dafc (remote-mediawiki tests: annotate failing tests, 2020-09-21). According to Matthieu Moy [1], one of the original developers of this tool, it didn't receive any attention recently and there is no motivation to keep maintaining it anymore in the community. The project has been spun out of Git [2] and thus has a new official home, but did not receive much attention over there, either. As such, it seems like the MediaWiki transport helper is slowly fading away. But given that there is a new home, it doesn't make sense to have it as part of Git anymore only to let it rot. Remove the directory.

2025-05-12contrib: remove "hooks" directoryPatrick Steinhardt
The "hooks" directory contains a handful of example hooks. Most of these hooks are highly specific and haven't really received any updates over the last couple of years, except for some global cleanups. The multimail hook has also been removed in f74d11471fa (multimail: stop shipping a copy, 2021-06-10) in favor of its upstream project [1]. Remove those hooks. If we want to provide examples for how to use Git hooks we should do that as part of our documentation, for example in githooks(5).

2025-05-12contrib: remove "thunderbird-patch-inline"Patrick Steinhardt
The "thunderbird-patch-inline" directory in "contrib/" contains a script to send patch files via Thunderbird. This script depends on the ExternalEditor extension [1], which seems to be effectively unmaintained with the last update being in 2008. While the extension has eventually been maintained in [2], that fork hasn't received any updates since 2020, either. As such, the ExternalEditor extension does not work with modern versions of Thunderbird anymore, and as the "thunderbird-patch-inline" script depends on the ExternalEditor extension it likely doesn't work anymore, either. The fact that this script hasn't been touched for the last 10 years outside of some global cleanup supports the idea that it is not useful anymore. Remove it.

2025-05-12contrib: remove remote-helper stubsPatrick Steinhardt

These scripts have since been converted into stubs in b2c851a8e67 (Revert "Merge branch 'jc/graduate-remote-hg-bzr' (early part)", 2014-05-20) as the helpers have been moved into their own upstream projects [1][2]. Given that these stubs have been created more than a decade ago it is very unlikely that anybody still tries to use them. Remove them.

The "examples" directory used to contain scripted versions of some of our builtins. These have all been removed in 49eb8d39c78 (Remove contrib/examples/*, 2018-03-25), but we left a note in the directory to make it discoverable that there used to be examples.

2025-05-12contrib: remove "remotes2config.sh"Patrick Steinhardt
Remotes can be configured either via a repository's config or by using the ".git/branches/" or ".git/remotes/" directories. Back when the new config-based mechanism has been introduced we also introduced a helper script that migrates from the old-style remote configuration to the new config-based mechanism. With the recent removal announcement for the two directories we also started to instruct users to migrate repositories that still use these mechanism to use config-based remotes. Notably though, the migration path doesn't even use the migration script. Instead, git-remote(1) itself knows how to migrate any such remote via `git remote rename`. In fact, a full migration _cannot_ use the script as it only knows to migrate remotes from ".git/remotes/", but not ".git/branches/". As such, the migration path via `git remote rename` is the only feasible way to fully migrate repositories over to the new format. Last but not least, the script doesn't even work as-is as it sources "git-sh-setup". For this to work it would need to be invoked either via Git so that this script is in our PATH, users would have to manually call it with an adjusted PATH, or distributions need to install the script into "$prefix/libexec/git-core" with a "git-" prefix. All of these steps are unlikely enough to underpin the claim that this script is not used at all. So given that: - The script cannot perform a full migration of all deprecated remote types. - We don't advertise it anywhere. - It has been basically untouched since 2007. - It doesn't even work unless users do manual steps. It should be safe enough to just remove it. Do so. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2025-04-23meson: move headers definition from 'contrib/coccinelle'Karthik Nayak
The Meson build for coccinelle static analysis lists all headers to analyse. Due to the way Meson exports variables between subdirs, this variable is also available in the root Meson build. An upcoming commit, will add a new check complimenting 'hdr-check' in the Makefile. This would require the list of headers. So move the 'coccinelle_headers' to the root Meson build and rename it to 'headers', remove the root path being appended to each header and retain that in the coccinelle Meson build since it is specific to the coccinelle build. Also move the 'third_party_sources' variable to the root Meson build since it is also a dependency for the 'headers' variable. This also makes it easier to understand as the variable is now propagated from the top level to the bottom. While 'headers_to_check' is only computed when we have a repository and the 'git' executable is present, the variable itself is exposed as an empty array. This allows dependencies in upcoming commits to simply check for length of the array and not worry about dependencies required to actually populate the array.

While these variables are specific to the checks in the 'contrib/coccinelle/' directory, they also pollute the top level 'meson.build'. Rename them to be more specific, this ensures that they aren't mistakenly used in the upper levels and avoid variable name collisions. While here, change the empty list denotation to be consistent with other places. Signed-off-by: Karthik Nayak <karthik.188@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2025-04-22contrib/completion: install Bash completionPatrick Steinhardt
The shell completion scripts in "contrib/completion" are being tested, but none of our build systems support installing them. This is somewhat confusing for Meson, where users can explicitly enable building these scripts via `-Dcontrib=completion`. This option only controlls whether the completions are built and tested against, where "building" is a bit of an euphemism for "copying them into the build directory". Teach both our Makefile and Meson to install our Bash completion script. For now, this is the only completion script that we're installing given that Bash completions "just work" with a canonical well-known location nowadays. Other completion scripts, like for example the one for zsh, don't have a well-known location and/or require extra steps by the user to make them available. As such, we skip installing these scripts for now, but we may do so in the future if we ever figure out a proper way to do this.

Both the "netrc" credential helper and git-subtree(1) from "contrib/" carry a couple of tests with them. These tests get wired up in Meson unconditionally even in the case where `-Dtests=false`.

2025-03-25meson: disable coccinelle configuration when building from a tarballEli Schwartz
Wiring up coccinelle in the build, depends on running git commands to get the list of files to operate on. Reasonable, for a feature mainly used by people developing on git. If building git itself from a tarball distribution of git's own source code, one likely does not need to run coccinelle. But running those git commands failed, and caused the build to error out, if `spatch` was installed -- because the build assumed that its presence indicated a desire to use it on this source tree. Instead, we can expand the conditional to check for both `spatch` and the `.git` file or directory. Meson's `opt.require()` method allows us to add a prerequisite for the feature option. If the prerequisite fails, then the option either: - converts autodetection to disabled - emits an informative error if the feature was set to enabled: ``` ERROR: Feature coccinelle cannot be enabled: coccinelle can only be run from a git checkout ``` Signed-off-by: Eli Schwartz <eschwartz@gentoo.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2025-03-23completion: fix bugs with slashes in remote namesDavid Mandelberg
Previously, some calls to for-each-ref passed fixed numbers of path components to strip from refs, assuming that remote names had no slashes in them. This made completions like: git push github/dseomn :com<Tab> Result in: git push github/dseomn :dseomn/completion-remote-slash With this patch, it instead results in: git push github/dseomn :completion-remote-slash Signed-off-by: David Mandelberg <david@mandelberg.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2025-03-06cmake: generalize the handling of the `CLAR_TEST_OBJS` listJohannes Schindelin
A late-comer to the v2.49.0 party, `sk/unit-test-oid`, added yet another array item to `CLAR_TEST_OBJS`, causing the `win+VS build` job to fail with symptoms like this one: unit-tests-lib.lib(u-oid-array.obj) : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol cl_parse_any_oid referenced in function fill_array This is a similar scenario to the one that forced me to write 8afda42fce60 (cmake: generalize the handling of the `UNIT_TEST_OBJS` list, 2024-09-18): The hard-coded echo of `CLAR_TEST_OBJS` in `CMakeLists.txt` that recapitulates faithfully what was already hard-coded in `Makefile` would either have to be updated whack-a-mole style, or generalized. Just like I chose the latter option for `UNIT_TEST_OBJS`, I now do the same for `CLAR_TEST_OBJS`.

2025-02-18meson: wire up static analysis via CoccinellePatrick Steinhardt
Wire up static analysis via Coccinelle via a new test target "coccicheck". This target can be executed via `meson compile coccicheck` and generates the semantic patch for us. Note that we don't hardcode the list of source and header files that shall be analyzed, and instead use git-ls-files(1) to find them for us. This is because we also want to analyze files that may not get built on the current platform, so finding all sources at configure time is easier than introducing a new variable that tracks all sources, including those which aren't being built.

2025-02-18contrib/credential: fix compilation of wincred helper with MSVCM Hickford
The git-credential-wincred helper does not compile on Windows with Microsoft Visual Studio because of our use of `__attribute__()`, which its compiler doesn't support. While the rest of our codebase would know to handle this because we redefine the macro in "compat/msvc.h", this stub isn't available here because we don't include "git-compat-util.h" in the first place. Fix the issue by making the attribute depend on the `_MSC_VER` preprocessor macro.

2025-02-18contrib/credential: fix "netrc" tests with out-of-tree buildsPatrick Steinhardt
Tests of the "netrc" credential helper aren't prepared to handle out-of-tree builds: - They expect the "test.pl" script to be located relative to the build directory, even though it is located in the source directory. - They expect the built "git-credential-netrc" helper to be located relative to the "test.pl" file, evne though it is loated in the build directory. This works alright as long as source and build directories are the same, but starts to break apart with Meson. Fix these first issue by using the new "GIT_SOURCE_DIR" variable to locate the test script itself. And fix the second issue by introducing a new environment variable "CREDENTIAL_NETRC_PATH" that can be set for out-of-tree builds to locate the built credential helper.

2025-02-18GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS: propagate project's source directoryPatrick Steinhardt
A couple of our tests require knowledge around where to find the project's source directory in order to locate files required for the test itself. Until now we have been wiring these up ad-hoc via new, specialized variables catered to the specific usecase. This is quite awkward though, as every test that potentially needs to locate paths relative to the source directory needs to grow another variable. Introduce a new "GIT_SOURCE_DIR" variable into GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS to stop this proliferation. Remove existing variables that can be derived from it.

2025-02-18Makefile: set default goals in makefilesAdam Dinwoodie
Explicitly set the default goal at the very top of various makefiles. This is already present in some makefiles, but not all of them. In particular, this corrects a regression introduced in a38edab7c8 (Makefile: generate doc versions via GIT-VERSION-GEN, 2024-12-06). That commit added some config files as build targets for the Documentation directory, and put the target configuration in a sensible place. Unfortunately, that sensible place was above any other build target definitions, meaning the default goal changed to being those configuration files only, rather than the HTML and man page documentation.

2025-02-10thunderbird-patch-inline: avoid bashismbrian m. carlson
The use of "echo -e" is not portable and not specified by POSIX. dash does not support any options except "-n", and so this script will not work on operating systems which use that as /bin/sh. Fortunately, the solution is easy: switch to printf(1), which is specified by POSIX and allows the escape sequences we want to use. This will allow the script to work with any POSIX shell.
