f207548 index-pack: make pointer-alias fallbacks safer The final() function accepts a NULL value for certain parameters, and falls back to writing into a reusable "name" buffer, and then either: 1. For "keep_name", requiring all uses to do "keep_name ? keep_name : name.buf". This is awkward, and it's easy to accidentally look at the maybe-NULL keep_name. 2. For "final_index_name" and "final_pack_name", aliasing those pointers to the "name" buffer. This is easier to use, but the aliased pointers become invalid after the buffer is reused (this isn't a bug now, but it's a potential pitfall). One way to make this safer would be to introduce an extra pointer to do the aliasing, and have its lifetime match the validity of the "name" buffer. But it's still easy to accidentally use the wrong name (i.e., to use "final_pack_name" instead of the aliased pointer). Instead, let's use three separate buffers that will remain valid through the function. That makes it safe to alias the pointers and use them consistently. The extra allocations shouldn't matter, as this function is not performance sensitive.

ba47a30 replace snprintf with odb_pack_name() In several places we write the name of the pack filename into a fixed-size buffer using snprintf(), but do not check the return value. As a result, a very long object directory could cause us to quietly truncate the pack filename (potentially leading to a corrupted repository, as a newly written packfile could be missing its .pack extension). We can use odb_pack_name() to do this with a strbuf (and shorten the code, as well).

eaeefc3 odb_pack_keep(): stop generating keepfile name The odb_pack_keep() function generates the name of a .keep file and opens it. This has two problems: 1. It requires a fixed-size buffer to create the filename and doesn't notice when the result is truncated. 2. Of the two callers, one sometimes wants to open a filename it already has, which makes things awkward (it has to do so manually, and skips the leading-directory creation). Instead, let's have odb_pack_keep() just open the file. Generating the name isn't hard, and a future patch will switch callers over to odb_pack_name() anyway.

1cec8c6 sha1_file.c: make pack-name helper globally accessible We provide sha1_pack_name() and sha1_pack_index_name(), but the more generic form (which takes its own strbuf and an arbitrary extension) is only used to implement the other two. Let's make it available, but clean up a few things: 1. Name it odb_pack_name(), as the original sha1_get_pack_name() is long but not all that descriptive. 2. Switch the strbuf argument to the beginning, so that it matches similar path-building functions like git_path_buf(). 3. Clean up the out-dated docstring and move it to the public declaration.

ffddfc6 rev-parse: simplify parsing of ref options All of these options do the same thing "--foo" iterates over the "foo" refs, and "--foo=<glob>" does the same with a glob. We can factor this into its own function to avoid repeating ourselves. There are two subtleties to note: - the original called for_each_branch_ref(), etc, in the non-glob case. Now we will call for_each_ref_in("refs/heads/") which is exactly what for_each_branch_ref() did under the hood. - for --glob, we'll call for_each_glob_ref_in() with a NULL "prefix" argument. Which is exactly what for_each_glob_ref() was doing already. So both cases should behave identically, and it seems reasonable to assume that this will remain the same. The functions we are calling now are the more-generic ones, and the ones we are dropping are just convenience wrappers.

9d16ca6 rev-parse: add helper for parsing "--foo/--foo=" We can't just use a bare skip_prefix() for these cases, because we need to match both the "--foo" form and the "--foo=<value>" form (and tell the difference between the two in the caller). We can wrap this in a simple helper which has two obvious callsites, and will gain some more in the next patch. Note that the error output for abbrev-ref changes slightly, as we don't keep our original "arg" pointer.

d61434a http-walker: fix buffer underflow processing remote alternates If we parse a remote alternates (or http-alternates), we expect relative lines like: ../../foo.git/objects which we convert into "$URL/../foo.git/" (and then use that as a base for fetching more objects). But if the remote feeds us nonsense like just: ../ we will try to blindly strip the last 7 characters, assuming they contain the string "objects". Since we don't _have_ 7 characters at all, this results in feeding a small negative value to strbuf_add(), which converts it to a size_t, resulting in a big positive value. This should consistently fail (since we can't generall allocate the max size_t minus 7 bytes), so there shouldn't be any security implications. Let's fix this by using strbuf_strip_suffix() to drop the characters we want. If they're not present, we'll ignore the alternate (in theory we could use it as-is, but the rest of the http-walker code unconditionally tacks "objects/" back on, so it is it not prepared to handle such a case).

ce83ead real_pathdup(): fix callsites that wanted it to die on error In 4ac9006f832 (real_path: have callers use real_pathdup and strbuf_realpath, 2016-12-12), we changed the xstrdup(real_path()) pattern to use real_pathdup() directly. The problem with this change is that real_path() calls strbuf_realpath() with die_on_error = 1 while real_pathdup() calls it with die_on_error = 0. Meaning that in cases where real_path() causes Git to die() with an error message, real_pathdup() is silent and returns NULL instead. The callers, however, are ill-prepared for that change, as they expect the return value to be non-NULL (and otherwise the function died with an appropriate error message). Fix this by extending real_pathdup()'s signature to accept the die_on_error flag and simply pass it through to strbuf_realpath(), and then adjust all callers after a careful audit whether they would handle NULLs well.

ba69f92 send-pack: read "unpack" status even on pack-objects failure If the local pack-objects of a push fails, we'll tell the user about it. But one likely cause is that the remote index-pack stopped reading for some reason (because it didn't like our input, or encountered another error). In that case we'd expect the remote to report more details to us via the "unpack ..." status line. However, the current code just hangs up completely, and the user never sees it. Instead, let's call receive_unpack_status(), which will complain on stderr with whatever reason the remote told us. Note that if our pack-objects fails because the connection was severed or the remote just crashed entirely, then our packet_read_line() call may fail with "the remote end hung up unexpectedly". That's OK. It's a more accurate description than what we get now (which is just "some refs failed to push"). This should be safe from any deadlocks. At the point we make this call we'll have closed the writing end of the connection to the server (either by handing it off to a pack-objects which exited, explicitly in the stateless_rpc case, or by doing a half-duplex shutdown for a socket). So there should be no chance that the other side is waiting for the rest of our pack-objects input.

40d05d0 send-pack: improve unpack-status error messages When the remote tells us that the "unpack" step failed, we show an error message. However, unless you are familiar with the internals of send-pack and receive-pack, it was not clear that this represented an error on the remote side. Let's re-word to make that more obvious. Likewise, when we got an unexpected packet from the other end, we complained with a vague message but did not actually show the packet. Let's fix that. And finally, neither message was marked for translation. The message from the remote probably won't be translated, but there's no reason we can't do better for the local half.

6cdad1f receive-pack: fix deadlock when we cannot create tmpdir The err_fd descriptor passed to the unpack() function is intended to be handed off to the child index-pack, and our async muxer will read until it gets EOF. However, if we encounter an error before handing off the descriptor, we must manually close(err_fd). Otherwise we will be waiting for our muxer to finish, while the muxer is waiting for EOF on err_fd. We fixed an identical deadlock already in 49ecfa13f (receive-pack: close sideband fd on early pack errors, 2013-04-19). But since then, the function grew a new early-return in 722ff7f87 (receive-pack: quarantine objects until pre-receive accepts, 2016-10-03), when we fail to create a temporary directory.

3255e51 ewah: fix eword_t/uint64_t confusion The ewah subsystem typedefs eword_t to be uint64_t, but some code uses a bare uint64_t. This isn't a bug now, but it's a potential maintenance problem if the definition of eword_t ever changes. Let's use the correct type. Note that we can't use COPY_ARRAY() here because the source and destination point to objects of different sizes.

Note for curiosity's sake that this bug doesn't trigger on I32LP64 systems, but does on ILP32 systems. The mistaken "struct range_set" has two ints and a pointer. That's 16 bytes on LP64, or 12 on ILP32. The correct "struct range" type has two longs, which is also 16 on LP64, but only 8 on ILP32. Likewise an IL32P64 system would experience the bug.

aaae0bf line-log.c: prevent crash during union of too many ranges The existing implementation of range_set_union does not correctly reallocate memory, leading to a heap overflow when it attempts to union more than 24 separate line ranges. For struct range_set *out to grow correctly it must have out->nr set to the current size of the buffer when it is passed to range_set_grow. However, the existing implementation of range_set_union only updates out->nr at the end of the function, meaning that it is always zero before this. This results in range_set_grow never growing the buffer, as well as some of the union logic itself being incorrect as !out->nr is always true. The reason why 24 is the limit is that the first allocation of size 1 ends up allocating a buffer of size 24 (due to the call to alloc_nr in ALLOC_GROW). This goes some way to explain why this hasn't been caught before. Fix the problem by correctly updating out->nr after reallocating the range_set. As this results in out->nr containing the same value as the variable o, replace o with out->nr as well. Finally, add a new test to help prevent the problem reoccurring in the future.

28e1fb5 t/perf: add fallback for pre-bin-wrappers versions of git It's tempting to say: ./run v1.0.0 HEAD to see how we've sped up Git over the years. Unfortunately, this doesn't quite work because versions of Git prior to v1.7.0 lack bin-wrappers, so our "run" script doesn't correctly put them in the PATH. Worse, it means we silently find whatever other "git" is in the PATH, and produce test results that have no bearing on what we asked for. Let's fallback to the main git directory when bin-wrappers isn't present.

83d4a40 t/perf: use $MODERN_GIT for all repo-copying steps Since 1a0962dee (t/perf: fix regression in testing older versions of git, 2016-06-22), we point "$MODERN_GIT" to a copy of git that matches the t/perf script itself, and which can be used for tasks outside of the actual timings. This is needed because the setup done by perf scripts keeps moving forward in time, and may use features that the older versions of git we are testing do not have. That commit used $MODERN_GIT to fix a case where we relied on the relatively recent --git-path option. But if you go back further still, there are more problems. Since 7501b5921 (perf: make the tests work in worktrees, 2016-05-13), we use "git -C", but versions of git older than 44e1e4d67 (git: run in a directory given with -C option, 2013-09-09) don't know about "-C". So testing an old version of git with a new version of t/perf will fail the setup step. We can fix this by using $MODERN_GIT during the setup; there's no need to use the antique version, since it doesn't affect the timings. Likewise, we'll adjust the "init" invocation; antique versions of git called this "init-db".

fd4692f checkout: restrict @-expansions when finding branch When we parse "git checkout $NAME", we try to interpret $NAME as a local branch-name. If it is, then we point HEAD to that branch. Otherwise, we detach the HEAD at whatever commit $NAME points to. We do the interpretation by calling strbuf_branchname(), and then blindly sticking "refs/heads/" on the front. This leads to nonsense results when expansions like "@{upstream}" or "@" point to something besides a local branch. We end up with a local branch name like "refs/heads/origin/master" or "refs/heads/HEAD". Normally this has no user-visible effect because those branches don't exist, and so we fallback to feeding the result to get_sha1(), which resolves them correctly. But as the new test in t3204 shows, there are corner cases where the effect is observable, and we check out the wrong local branch rather than detaching to the correct one.

7d5c960 strbuf_check_ref_format(): expand only local branches This function asks strbuf_branchname() to expand any @-marks in the branchname, and then we blindly stick refs/heads/ in front of the result. This is obviously nonsense if the expansion is "HEAD" or a ref in refs/remotes/. The most obvious end-user effect is that creating or renaming a branch with an expansion may have confusing results (e.g., creating refs/heads/origin/master from "@{upstream}" when the operation should be disallowed). We can fix this by telling strbuf_branchname() that we are only interested in local expansions. Any unexpanded bits are then fed to check_ref_format(), which either disallows them (in the case of "@{upstream}") or lets them through ("refs/heads/@" is technically valid, if a bit silly).

6b145e0 branch: restrict @-expansions when deleting We use strbuf_branchname() to expand the branch name from the command line, so you can delete the branch given by @{-1}, for example. However, we allow other nonsense like "@", and we do not respect our "-r" flag (so we may end up deleting an oddly-named local ref instead of a remote one).

That shows off some breakages where we currently create or delete the wrong ref (and will make sure that we do not break any cases that _should_ be working when we do add more restrictions).

0e9f62d interpret_branch_name: allow callers to restrict expansions The interpret_branch_name() function converts names like @{-1} and @{upstream} into branch names. The expanded ref names are not fully qualified, and may be outside of the refs/heads/ namespace (e.g., "@" expands to "HEAD", and "@{upstream}" is likely to be in "refs/remotes/"). This is OK for callers like dwim_ref() which are primarily interested in resolving the resulting name, no matter where it is. But callers like "git branch" treat the result as a branch name in refs/heads/. When we expand to a ref outside that namespace, the results are very confusing (e.g., "git branch @" tries to create refs/heads/HEAD, which is nonsense). Callers can't know from the returned string how the expansion happened (e.g., did the user really ask for a branch named "HEAD", or did we do a bogus expansion?). One fix would be to return some out-parameters describing the types of expansion that occurred. This has the benefit that the caller can generate precise error messages ("I understood @{upstream} to mean origin/master, but that is a remote tracking branch, so you cannot create it as a local name"). However, out-parameters make the function interface somewhat cumbersome. Instead, let's do the opposite: let the caller tell us which elements to expand. That's easier to pass in, and none of the callers give more precise error messages than "@{upstream} isn't a valid branch name" anyway (which should be sufficient). The strbuf_branchname() function needs a similar parameter, as most of the callers access interpret_branch_name() through it. We can break the callers down into two groups: 1. Callers that are happy with any kind of ref in the result. We pass "0" here, so they continue to work without restrictions. This includes merge_name(), the reflog handling in add_pending_object_with_path(), and substitute_branch_name(). This last is what powers dwim_ref(). 2. Callers that have funny corner cases (mostly in git-branch and git-checkout). These need to make use of the new parameter, but I've left them as "0" in this patch, and will address them individually in follow-on patches.

13228c3 interpret_branch_name(): handle auto-namelen for @{-1} The interpret_branch_name() function takes a ptr/len pair for the name, but you can pass "0" for "namelen", which will cause it to check the length with strlen(). However, before we do that auto-namelen magic, we call interpret_nth_prior_checkout(), which gets fed the bogus "0". This was broken by 8cd4249c4 (interpret_branch_name: always respect "namelen" parameter, 2014-01-15). Though to be fair to that commit, it was broken in the _opposite_ direction before, where we would always treat "name" as a string even if a length was passed. You can see the bug with "git log -g @{-1}". That code path always passes "0", and without this patch it cannot figure out which branch's reflog to show. We can fix it by a small reordering of the code. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com> 02 March 2017, 19:04:57 UTC
12426e1 diff: do not short-cut CHECK_SIZE_ONLY check in diff_populate_filespec() Callers of diff_populate_filespec() can choose to ask only for the size of the blob without grabbing the blob data, and the function, after running lstat() when the filespec points at a working tree file, returns by copying the value in size field of the stat structure into the size field of the filespec when this is the case. However, this short-cut cannot be taken if the contents from the path needs to go through convert_to_git(), whose resulting real blob data may be different from what is in the working tree file. As "git diff --quiet" compares the .size fields of filespec structures to skip content comparison, this bug manifests as a false "there are differences" for a file that needs eol conversion, for example.

c852bd5 add--interactive: fix missing file prompt for patch mode with "-i" When invoked as "git add -i", each menu interactive menu option prompts the user to select a list of files. This includes the "patch" option, which gets the list before starting the hunk-selection loop. As "git add -p", it behaves differently, and jumps straight to the hunk selection loop. Since 0539d5e6d (i18n: add--interactive: mark patch prompt for translation, 2016-12-14), the "add -i" case mistakenly jumps to straight to the hunk-selection loop. Prior to that commit the distinction between the two cases was managed by the $patch_mode variable. That commit used $patch_mode for something else, and moved the old meaning to the "$cmd" variable. But it forgot to update the $patch_mode check inside patch_update_cmd() which controls the file-list behavior. The simplest fix would be to change that line to check $cmd. But while we're here, let's use a less obscure name for this flag: $patch_mode_only, a boolean which tells whether we are in full-interactive mode or only in patch-mode.

8e27391 http: attempt updating base URL only if no error http.c supports HTTP redirects of the form http://foo/info/refs?service=git-upload-pack -> http://anything -> http://bar/info/refs?service=git-upload-pack (that is to say, as long as the Git part of the path and the query string is preserved in the final redirect destination, the intermediate steps can have any URL). However, if one of the intermediate steps results in an HTTP exception, a confusing "unable to update url base from redirection" message is printed instead of a Curl error message with the HTTP exception code. This was introduced by 2 commits. Commit c93c92f ("http: update base URLs when we see redirects", 2013-09-28) introduced a best-effort optimization that required checking if only the "base" part of the URL differed between the initial request and the final redirect destination, but it performed the check before any HTTP status checking was done. If something went wrong, the normal code path was still followed, so this did not cause any confusing error messages until commit 6628eb4 ("http: always update the base URL for redirects", 2016-12-06), which taught http to die if the non-"base" part of the URL differed. Therefore, teach http to check the HTTP status before attempting to check if only the "base" part of the URL differed. This commit teaches http_request_reauth to return early without updating options->base_url upon an error; the only invoker of this function that passes a non-NULL "options" is remote-curl.c (through "http_get_strbuf"), which only uses options->base_url for an informational message in the situations that this commit cares about (that is, when the return value is not HTTP_OK). The included test checks that the redirect scheme at the beginning of this commit message works, and that returning a 502 in the middle of the redirect scheme produces the correct result. Note that this is different from the test in commit 6628eb4 ("http: always update the base URL for redirects", 2016-12-06) in that this commit tests that a Git-shaped URL (http://.../info/refs?service=git-upload-pack) works, whereas commit 6628eb4 tests that a non-Git-shaped URL (http://.../info/refs/foo?service=git-upload-pack) does not work (even though Git is processing that URL) and is an error that is fatal, not silently swallowed.

b803ae4 docs/diffcore: unquote "Complete Rewrites" in headers The gitdiffcore documentation quotes the term "Complete Rewrites" in headers for no real gain. This would make sense if the term could be easily confused if not properly grouped together. But actually, the term is quite obvious and thus does not really need any quoting, especially regarding that it is not used anywhere else. But more importanly, this brings up a bug when rendering man pages: when trying to render quotes inside of a section header, we end up with quotes which have been misaligned to the end of line. E.g. diffcore-break: For Splitting Up Complete Rewrites -------------------------------------------------- renders as DIFFCORE-BREAK: FOR SPLITTING UP COMPLETE REWRITES"" , which is obviously wrong. While this is fixable for the man pages by using double-quotes (e.g. ""COMPLETE REWRITES""), this again breaks it for our generated HTML pages. So fix the issue by simply dropping quotes inside of section headers, which is currently only done for the term "Complete Rewrites".

40a18fc http: add an "auto" mode for http.emptyauth This variable needs to be specified to make some types of non-basic authentication work, but ideally this would just work out of the box for everyone. However, simply setting it to "1" by default introduces an extra round-trip for cases where it _isn't_ useful. We end up sending a bogus empty credential that the server rejects. Instead, let's introduce an automatic mode, that works like this: 1. We won't try to send the bogus credential on the first request. We'll wait to get an HTTP 401, as usual. 2. After seeing an HTTP 401, the empty-auth hack will kick in only when we know there is an auth method available that might make use of it (i.e., something besides "Basic" or "Digest"). That should make it work out of the box, without incurring any extra round-trips for people hitting Basic-only servers. This _does_ incur an extra round-trip if you really want to use "Basic" but your server advertises other methods (the emptyauth hack will kick in but fail, and then Git will actually ask for a password). The auto mode may incur an extra round-trip over setting http.emptyauth=true, because part of the emptyauth hack is to feed this blank password to curl even before we've made a single request.

48f8d9f parse_config_key: allow matching single-level config The parse_config_key() function was introduced to make it easier to match "section.subsection.key" variables. It also handles the simpler "section.key", and the caller is responsible for distinguishing the two from its out-parameters. Most callers who _only_ want "section.key" would just use a strcmp(var, "section.key"), since there is no parsing required. However, they may still use parse_config_key() if their "section" variable isn't a constant (an example of this is in parse_hide_refs_config). Using the parse_config_key is a bit clunky, though: const char *subsection; int subsection_len; const char *key; if (!parse_config_key(var, section, &subsection, &subsection_len, &key) && !subsection) { /* matched! */ } Instead, let's treat a NULL subsection as an indication that the caller does not expect one. That lets us write: const char *key; if (!parse_config_key(var, section, NULL, NULL, &key)) { /* matched! */ } Existing callers should be unaffected, as passing a NULL subsection would currently segfault.

7e82388 docs/git-gc: fix default value for `--aggressiveDepth` In commit 07e7dbf0d (gc: default aggressive depth to 50, 2016-08-11), the default aggressive depth of git-gc has been changed to 50. While git-config(1) has been updated to represent the new default value, git-gc(1) still mentions the old value. This patch fixes it.

1274a15 config: use git_config_parse_key() in git_config_parse_parameter() The parsing of one-shot assignments of configuration variables that come from the command line historically was quite loose and allowed anything to pass. It also downcased everything in the variable name, even a three-level <section>.<subsection>.<variable> name in which the <subsection> part must be treated in a case sensitive manner. Existing git_config_parse_key() helper is used to parse the variable name that comes from the command line, i.e. "git config VAR VAL", and handles these details correctly. Replace the strbuf_tolower() call in git_config_parse_parameter() with a call to it to correct both issues. git_config_parse_key() does a bit more things that are not necessary for the purpose of this codepath (e.g. it allocates a separate buffer to return the canonicalized variable name because it takes a "const char *" input), but we are not in a performance-critical codepath here.

ee98df3 config: move a few helper functions up git_config_parse_key() implements the validation and downcasing of <section> and <variable> in "<section>[.<subsection>].<variable>" configuration variable name. Move it (and helpers it uses) a bit up so that it can be used by git_config_parse_parameter(), which is used to check configuration settings that are given on the command line (i.e. "git -c VAR=VAL cmd"), in a later patch.

9442555 ident: do not ignore empty config name/email When we read user.name and user.email from a config file, they go into strbufs. When a caller asks ident_default_name() for the value, we fallback to auto-detecting if the strbuf is empty. That means that explicitly setting an empty string in the config is identical to not setting it at all. This is potentially confusing, as we usually accept a configured value as the final value.

13b9a24 ident: reject all-crud ident name An ident name consisting of only "crud" characters (like whitespace or punctuation) is effectively the same as an empty one, because our strbuf_addstr_without_crud() will remove those characters. We reject an empty name when formatting a strict ident, but don't notice an all-crud one because our check happens before the crud-removal step. We could skip past the crud before checking for an empty name, but let's make it a separate code path, for two reasons. One is that we can give a more specific error message. And two is that unlike a blank name, we probably don't want to kick in the fallback-to-username behavior.

862e80a ident: handle NULL email when complaining of empty name If we see an empty name, we complain about and mention the matching email in the error message (to give it some context). However, the "email" pointer may be NULL here if we were planning to fill it in later from ident_default_email(). This was broken by 59f929596 (fmt_ident: refactor strictness checks, 2016-02-04). Prior to that commit, we would look up the default name and email before doing any other actions. So one solution would be to go back to that. However, we can't just do so blindly. The logic for handling the "!email" condition has grown since then. In particular, looking up the default email can die if getpwuid() fails, but there are other errors that should take precedence. Commit 734c7789a (ident: check for useConfigOnly before auto-detection of name/email, 2016-03-30) reordered the checks so that we prefer the error message for useConfigOnly. Instead, we can observe that while the name-handling depends on "email" being set, the reverse is not true. So we can simply set up the email variable first. This does mean that if both are bogus, we'll complain about the email before the name. But between the two, there is no reason to prefer one over the other.

840398f http: restrict auth methods to what the server advertises By default, we tell curl to use CURLAUTH_ANY, which does not limit its set of auth methods. However, this results in an extra round-trip to the server when authentication is required. After we've fed the credential to curl, it wants to probe the server to find its list of available methods before sending an Authorization header. We can shortcut this by limiting our http_auth_methods by what the server told us it supports. In some cases (such as when the server only supports Basic), that lets curl skip the extra probe request. The end result should look the same to the user, but you can use GIT_TRACE_CURL to verify the sequence of requests: GIT_TRACE_CURL=1 \ git ls-remote https://example.com/repo.git \ 2>&1 >/dev/null | egrep '(Send|Recv) header: (GET|HTTP|Auth)' Before this patch, hitting a Basic-only server like github.com results in: Send header: GET /repo.git/info/refs?service=git-upload-pack HTTP/1.1 Recv header: HTTP/1.1 401 Authorization Required Send header: GET /repo.git/info/refs?service=git-upload-pack HTTP/1.1 Recv header: HTTP/1.1 401 Authorization Required Send header: GET /repo.git/info/refs?service=git-upload-pack HTTP/1.1 Send header: Authorization: Basic <redacted> Recv header: HTTP/1.1 200 OK And after: Send header: GET /repo.git/info/refs?service=git-upload-pack HTTP/1.1 Recv header: HTTP/1.1 401 Authorization Required Send header: GET /repo.git/info/refs?service=git-upload-pack HTTP/1.1 Send header: Authorization: Basic <redacted> Recv header: HTTP/1.1 200 OK The possible downsides are: - This only helps for a Basic-only server; for a server with multiple auth options, curl may still send a probe request to see which ones are available (IOW, there's no way to say "don't probe, I already know what the server will say"). - The http_auth_methods variable is global, so this will apply to all further requests. That's acceptable for Git's usage of curl, though, which also treats the credentials as global. I.e., in any given program invocation we hit only one conceptual server (we may be redirected at the outset, but in that case that's whose auth_avail field we'd see).

20690b2 remote: ignore failure to remove missing branch.<name>.merge It is not all too unusual for a branch to use "branch.<name>.remote" without "branch.<name>.merge". You may be using the 'push.default' configuration set to 'current', for example, and do $ git checkout -b side colleague/side $ git config branch.side.remote colleague However, "git remote rm" to remove the remote used in such a manner fails with "fatal: could not unset 'branch.<name>.merge'" because it assumes that a branch that has .remote defined must also have .merge defined. Detect the "cannot unset because it is not set to begin with" case and ignore it.
