Jeff King f2f0267529 archive-tar: use xsnprintf for trivial formatting
When we generate tar headers, we sprintf() values directly
into a struct with the fixed-size header values. For the
most part this is fine, as we are formatting small values
(e.g., the octal format of "mode & 0x7777" is of fixed
length). But it's still a good idea to use xsnprintf here.
It communicates to readers what our expectation is, and it
provides a run-time check that we are not overflowing the
buffers.

The one exception here is the mtime, which comes from the
epoch time of the commit we are archiving. For sane values,
this fits into the 12-byte value allocated in the header.
But since git can handle 64-bit times, if I claim to be a
visitor from the year 10,000 AD, I can overflow the buffer.
This turns out to be harmless, as we simply overflow into
the chksum field, which is then overwritten.

This case is also best as an xsnprintf. It should never come
up, short of extremely malformed dates, and in that case we
are probably better off dying than silently truncating the
date value (and we cannot expand the size of the buffer,
since it is dictated by the ustar format). Our friends in
the year 5138 (when we legitimately flip to a 12-digit
epoch) can deal with that problem then.

Jeff King 5096d4909f convert trivial sprintf / strcpy calls to xsnprintf
We sometimes sprintf into fixed-size buffers when we know
that the buffer is large enough to fit the input (either
because it's a constant, or because it's numeric input that
is bounded in size). Likewise with strcpy of constant
strings.

However, these sites make it hard to audit sprintf and
strcpy calls for buffer overflows, as a reader has to
cross-reference the size of the array with the input. Let's
use xsnprintf instead, which communicates to a reader that
we don't expect this to overflow (and catches the mistake in
case we do).

brian m. carlson 10f343ea81 archive: honor tar.umask even for pax headers
git archive's tar format uses extended pax headers to encode metadata
into the archive.  Most tar implementations correctly treat these as
metadata, but some that do not understand the pax format extract these
as files instead.  Apply the tar.umask setting to these entries to
prevent tampering by other users.

Jeff King 785a042981 archive-tar: use parse_config_key when parsing config
This is fewer lines of code, but more importantly, fixes a
bogus pointer offset. We are looking for "tar." in the
section, but later assume that the dot we found is at offset
9, not 3. This is a holdover from an earlier iteration of
767cf45 which called the section "tarfilter".

As a result, we could erroneously reject some filters with
dots in their name, as well as read uninitialized memory.

Junio C Hamano f12f3af726 Merge branch 'rs/leave-base-name-in-name-field-of-tar'

René Scharfe 22f0dcd963 archive-tar: split long paths more carefully
The name field of a tar header has a size of 100 characters.  This limit
was extended long ago in a backward compatible way by providing the
additional prefix field, which can hold 155 additional characters.  The
actual path is constructed at extraction time by concatenating the prefix
field, a slash and the name field.

get_path_prefix() is used to determine which slash in the path is used as
the cutting point and thus which part of it is placed into the field
prefix and which into the field name.  It tries to cram as much into the
prefix field as possible.  (And only if we can't fit a path into the
provided 255 characters we use a pax extended header to store it.)

If a path is longer than 100 but shorter than 156 characters and ends
with a slash (i.e. is for a directory) then get_path_prefix() puts the
whole path in the prefix field and leaves the name field empty.  GNU tar
reconstructs the path without complaint, but the tar included with
NetBSD 6 does not: It reports the header to be invalid.

For compatibility with this version of tar, make sure to never leave the
name field empty.  In order to do that, trim the trailing slash from the
part considered as possible prefix, if it exists -- that way the last
path component (or more, but not less) will end up in the name field.

Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy d240d41021 archive-tar: turn write_tar_entry into blob-writing only
Before this patch write_tar_entry() can:

 - write global header
   by write_global_extended_header() calling write_tar_entry with
   with both sha1 and path == NULL

 - write extended header for symlinks, by write_tar_entry() calling
   itself with sha1 != NULL and path == NULL

 - write a normal blob. In this case both sha1 and path are valid.

After this patch, the first two call sites are modified to write the
header without calling write_tar_entry(). The function is now for
writing blobs only. This simplifies handling when write_tar_entry()
learns about large blobs.

Jeff King 4d7c989863 archive: pass archiver struct to write_archive callback
The current archivers are very static; when you are in the
write_tar_archive function, you know you are writing a tar.
However, to facilitate runtime-configurable archivers
that will share a common write function we need to tell the
function which archiver was used.

As a convenience, we also provide an opaque data pointer in
the archiver struct so that individual archivers can put
something useful there when they register themselves.
Technically they could just use the "name" field to look in
an internal map of names to data, but this is much simpler.

Jeff King 13e0f88d4a archive: refactor list of archive formats
Most of the tar and zip code was nicely split out into two
abstracted files which knew only about their specific
formats. The entry point to this code was a single "write
archive" function.

However, as these basic formats grow more complex (e.g., by
handling multiple file extensions and format names), a
static list of the entry point functions won't be enough.
Instead, let's provide a way for the tar and zip code to
tell the main archive code what they support by registering
archiver names and functions.

Pierre Habouzit b449f4cfc9 Rework strbuf API and semantics.
The gory details are explained in strbuf.h. The change of semantics this
patch enforces is that the embeded buffer has always a '\0' character after
its last byte, to always make it a C-string. The offs-by-one changes are all
related to that very change.

  A strbuf can be used to store byte arrays, or as an extended string
library. The `buf' member can be passed to any C legacy string function,
because strbuf operations always ensure there is a terminating \0 at the end
of the buffer, not accounted in the `len' field of the structure.

  A strbuf can be used to generate a string/buffer whose final size is not
really known, and then "strbuf_detach" can be used to get the built buffer,
and keep the wrapping "strbuf" structure usable for further work again.

  Other interesting feature: strbuf_grow(sb, size) ensure that there is
enough allocated space in `sb' to put `size' new octets of data in the
buffer. It helps avoiding reallocating data for nothing when the problem the
strbuf helps to solve has a known typical size.

Add support for a new attribute, specfile.  Files marked as being
specfiles are expanded by git-archive when they are written to an
archive.  It has no effect on worktree files.  The same placeholders
as those for the option --pretty=format: of git-log et al. can be
used.

The attribute is useful for creating auto-updating specfiles.  It is
limited by the underlying function format_commit_message(), though.
E.g. currently there is no placeholder for git-describe like output,
and expanded specfiles can't contain NUL bytes.  That can be fixed
in format_commit_message() later and will then benefit users of
git-log, too.

René Scharfe 5e6cfc80e2 git-archive: convert archive entries like checkouts do
As noted by Johan Herland, git-archive is a kind of checkout and needs
to apply any checkout filters that might be configured.

This patch adds the convenience function convert_sha1_file which returns
a buffer containing the object's contents, after converting, if necessary
(i.e. it's a combination of read_sha1_file and convert_to_working_tree).
Direct calls to read_sha1_file in git-archive are then replaced by calls
to convert_sha1_file.

Since convert_sha1_file expects its path argument to be NUL-terminated --
a convention it inherits from convert_to_working_tree -- the patch also
changes the path handling in archive-tar.c to always NUL-terminate the
string.  It used to solely rely on the len field of struct strbuf before.

archive-zip.c already NUL-terminates the path and thus needs no such
change.

Lars Hjemli 02851e0b9e git-archive: don't die when repository uses subprojects
Both archive-tar and archive-zip needed to be taught about subprojects.
The tar function died when trying to read the subproject commit object,
while the zip function reported "unsupported file mode".

This fixes both by representing the subproject as an empty directory.

Nicolas Pitre 21666f1aae convert object type handling from a string to a number
We currently have two parallel notation for dealing with object types
in the code: a string and a numerical value.  One of them is obviously
redundent, and the most used one requires more stack space and a bunch
of strcmp() all over the place.

This is an initial step for the removal of the version using a char array
found in object reading code paths.  The patch is unfortunately large but
there is no sane way to split it in smaller parts without breaking the
system.

René Scharfe f08b3b0e2e Set default "tar" umask to 002 and owner.group to root.root
In order to make the generated tar files more friendly to users who
extract them as root using GNU tar and its implied -p option, change
the default umask to 002 and change the owner name and group name to
root.  This ensures that a) the extracted files and directories are
not world-writable and b) that they belong to user and group root.

Before they would have been assigned to a user and/or group named
git if it existed.  This also answers the question in the removed
comment: uid=0, gid=0, uname=root, gname=root is exactly what we
want.

Normal users who let tar apply their umask while extracting are
only affected if their umask allowed the world to change their
files (e.g. a umask of zero).  This case is so unlikely and strange
that we don't need to support it.

Junio C Hamano 85023577a8 simplify inclusion of system header files.
This is a mechanical clean-up of the way *.c files include
system header files.

 (1) sources under compat/, platform sha-1 implementations, and
     xdelta code are exempt from the following rules;

 (2) the first #include must be "git-compat-util.h" or one of
     our own header file that includes it first (e.g. config.h,
     builtin.h, pkt-line.h);

 (3) system headers that are included in "git-compat-util.h"
     need not be included in individual C source files.

 (4) "git-compat-util.h" does not have to include subsystem
     specific header files (e.g. expat.h).

Rene Scharfe 3d74982f0b git-tar-tree: Move code for git-archive --format=tar to archive-tar.c
This patch doesn't change any functionality, it only moves code around.  It
makes seeing the few remaining lines of git-tar-tree code easier. ;-)
