The patch ID is supposed to be mostly context-insignificant and thus only includes added or deleted lines. As such, we shouldn't honor end-of-file-without-newline markers in diffs. Ignore such lines to fix how we compute the patch ID for such diffs.

config_file: implement stat cache to avoid repeated rehashing
Patrick Steinhardt committed -
When we rewrite the configuration file due to any of its values being modified, we call `config_refresh` to update the in-memory representation of our config file backend. This is needlessly wasteful though, as `config_refresh` will always open the on-disk representation to reads the file contents while we already know the complete file contents at this point in time as we have just written it to disk. Implement a new function `config_refresh_from_buffer` that will refresh the backend's config entries from a buffer instead of from the config file itself. Note that this will thus _not_ update the backend's timestamp, which will cause us to re-read the buffer when performing a read operation on it. But this is still an improvement as we now lazily re-read the contents, and most importantly we will avoid constantly re-reading the contents if we perform multiple write operations. The following strace demonstrates this if we're re-writing a key multiple times. It uses our config example with `config_set` changed to update the file 10 times with different keys: $ strace lg2 config x.x z |& grep '^open.*config' open("/tmp/repo/.git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 open("/home/pks/.config/git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config.lock", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_CLOEXEC, 0666) = 3 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 4 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config.lock", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_CLOEXEC, 0666) = 3 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 4 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config.lock", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_CLOEXEC, 0666) = 3 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 4 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config.lock", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_CLOEXEC, 0666) = 3 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 4 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config.lock", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_CLOEXEC, 0666) = 3 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 4 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config.lock", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_CLOEXEC, 0666) = 3 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 4 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config.lock", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_CLOEXEC, 0666) = 3 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 4 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config.lock", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_CLOEXEC, 0666) = 3 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 4 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config.lock", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_CLOEXEC, 0666) = 3 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 4 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config.lock", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_CLOEXEC, 0666) = 3 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 4 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 And now with the optimization of `config_refresh_from_buffer`: $ strace lg2 config x.x z |& grep '^open.*config' open("/tmp/repo/.git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 open("/home/pks/.config/git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config.lock", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_CLOEXEC, 0666) = 3 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 4 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config.lock", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_CLOEXEC, 0666) = 3 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 4 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config.lock", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_CLOEXEC, 0666) = 3 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 4 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config.lock", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_CLOEXEC, 0666) = 3 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 4 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config.lock", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_CLOEXEC, 0666) = 3 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 4 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config.lock", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_CLOEXEC, 0666) = 3 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 4 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config.lock", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_CLOEXEC, 0666) = 3 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 4 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config.lock", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_CLOEXEC, 0666) = 3 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 4 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config.lock", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_CLOEXEC, 0666) = 3 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 4 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config.lock", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_CLOEXEC, 0666) = 3 open("/tmp/repo/.git/config", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 4 As can be seen, this is quite a lot of `open` calls less.

Updating a config file backend's config entries is a bit more involved, as it requires clearing of the old config entries as well as handling locking correctly. As we will need this functionality in a future patch to refresh config entries from a buffer, let's extract this into its own function `config_set_entries`.
Patrick Steinhardt committed -
The `config_read` function currently performs both reading the on-disk config file as well as parsing the retrieved buffer contents. To optimize how we refresh our config entries from an in-memory buffer, we need to be able to directly parse buffers, though, without involving any on-disk files at all. Extract a new function `config_read_buffer` that sets up the parsing logic and then parses config entries from a buffer, only. Have `config_read` use it to avoid duplicated logic.
Patrick Steinhardt committed -
We are quite lazy in how we refresh our config file backend when updating any of its keys: instead of just updating our in-memory representation of the keys, we just discard the old set of keys and then re-read the config file contents from disk. This refresh currently happens separately at every callsite of `config_write`, but it is clear that we _always_ want to refresh if we have written the config file to disk. If we didn't, then we'd run around with an outdated config file backend that does not represent what we have on disk. By moving the refresh into `config_write`, we are also able to optimize the case where the config file is currently locked. Before, we would've tried to re-read the file even if we have only updated its cached contents without touching the on-disk file. Thus we'd have unnecessarily stat'd the file, even though we know that it shouldn't have been modified in the meantime due to its lock.
Patrick Steinhardt committed -
To decide whether a config file has changed, we always hash its complete contents. This is unnecessarily expensive, as well-behaved filesystems will always update stat information for files which have changed. So before computing the hash, we should first check whether the stat info has actually changed for either the configuration file or any of its includes. This avoids having to re-read the configuration file and its includes every time when we check whether it's been modified. Tracing the for-each-ref example previous to this commit, one can see that we repeatedly re-open both the repo configuration as well as the global configuration: $ strace lg2 for-each-ref |& grep config access("/home/pks/.gitconfig", F_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) access("/home/pks/.config/git/config", F_OK) = 0 access("/etc/gitconfig", F_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or

stat("/home/pks/.config/git/config", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=1154, ...}) = 0 The following benchmark has been performed with and without the stat cache in a best-of-ten run: ``` int lg2_repro(git_repository *repo, int argc, char **argv) { git_config *cfg; int32_t dummy; int i; UNUSED(argc); UNUSED(argv); check_lg2(git_repository_config(&cfg, repo), "Could not obtain config", NULL); for (i = 1; i < 100000; ++i) git_config_get_int32(&dummy, cfg, "foo.bar"); git_config_free(cfg); return 0; } ``` Without stat cache: $ time lg2 repro real 0m1.528s user 0m0.568s sys 0m0.944s With stat cache: $ time lg2 repro real 0m0.526s user 0m0.268s sys 0m0.258s This benchmark shows a nearly three-fold performance improvement. This change requires that we check our configuration stress tests as we're now in fact becoming more racy. If somebody is writing a configuration file at nearly the same time (there is a window of 100ns on Windows-based systems), then it might be that we realize that this file has actually changed and thus may not re-read it. This will only happen if either an external process is rewriting the configuration file or if the same process has multiple `git_config` structures pointing to the same time, where one of both is being used to write and the other one is used to read values.

Implement a new example that resembles git-config(1). Right now, this example can both read and set configuration keys, only.
Patrick Steinhardt committed -
Depending on the platform and on build options, we may or may not build libgit2 with support for nanoseconds when using `stat` calls. It's currently unclear though whether sub-second stat information is used at all. Add feature info for this to tell at configure time whether it's being used or not.

ci: build with ENABLE_WERROR on Windows
Patrick Steinhardt committed -
The function `git_win32__stack__set_aux_cb` expects the second parameter to be a function callback of type `git_win32__stack__aux_cb_lookup`, which expects a `size_t` parameter. In our test suite trace::windows::stacktrace, we declare the callback with `unsigned int` as parameter, though, causing a compiler warning. Correct the parameter type to silence the warning.
Patrick Steinhardt committed -
In both `git_win32__stack_format` and `git_win32__stack`, we handle buffer lengths via an integer variable. As we only ever pass buffer sizes to it, this should be a `size_t` though to avoid loss of precision. As we also use it to compare with other `size_t` variables, this also silences signed/unsigned comparison warnings.
Patrick Steinhardt committed -
We use the `__LINE__` macro in several places throughout clar to allow easier traceability when e.g. a test fails. While `__LINE__` is of type `size_t`, the clar functions all accept an integer and thus may loose precision. While unlikely that any file in our codebase will exceed a linecount of `INT_MAX`, let's convert it anyway to silence any compiler warnings.
Patrick Steinhardt committed -
When iterating over index entries, we store the indices in an unsigned int. As the index entrycount is a `size_t` though, this may be a loss of precision which a compiler might rightfully complain about. Use `size_t` instead to fix any warnings.
Patrick Steinhardt committed -
When computing the progress, we perform some arithmetics that are implicitly converting from `size_t` to `int`. In one case we're calclulating a percentage, so we know that it should always be in the range of [0,100] and thus we're fine. In the other case we convert from bytes to kilobytes -- this should be stored in a `size_t` to avoid loss of precision, even though it probably won't matter due to limited download rates.
Patrick Steinhardt committed -
The memchr(3P) function expects a `size_t` as its last parameter, but we do pass it an object size, which is of signed type `git_off_t`. As we can be sure that the result will be non-negative, let's just cast the parameter to a `size_t`.
Patrick Steinhardt committed -
When reallocating commit arrays in `opts_add_commit` and `opts_add_refish`, respectively, we simply pass the const pointer to `xrealloc`. As `xrealloc` expects a non-const pointer, though, this will generate a warning with some compilers. Cast away the constness to silence compilers.

Fix Regression: attr: Correctly load system attr file (on Windows)
Patrick Steinhardt committed -
There were no tests that verified that system-level gitattributes files get handled correctly. In fact, we have recently introduced a regression that caused us to abort if there was a system-level gitattributes file available. Add two tests that verify that we're able to handle system-level gitattributes files. The test attr::repo::sysdir_with_session would've failed without the fix to the described regression.
Patrick Steinhardt committed -
The function `git_attr_session__init` is currently only initializing setting up the attribute's session key by incrementing the repo-global key by one. Most notably, all other members of the `git_attr_session` struct are not getting initialized at all. So if one is to allocate a session on the stack and then calls `git_attr_session__init`, the session will still not be fully initialized. We have fared just fine with that until now as all users of the function have allocated the session structure as part of bigger structs with `calloc`, and thus its contents have been zero-initialized implicitly already. Fix this by explicitly zeroing out the session to enable allocation of sessions on the stack.

hash: fix missing error return on production builds
Patrick Steinhardt committed -
When no hash algorithm has been initialized in a given hash context, then we will simply `assert` and not return a value at all. This works just fine in debug builds, but on non-debug builds the assert will be converted to a no-op and thus we do not have a proper return value. Fix this by returning an error code in addition to the asserts.

Resolve static check warnings in example code
Patrick Steinhardt committed -
Using cppcheck on libgit2 sources indicated two warnings in example code. merge.c was reported as having a memory leak. Fix applied was to `free()` memory pointed to by `parents`. init.c was reported as having a null pointer dereference on variable arg. Function 'usage' was being called with a null variable. Changed supplied parameter to empty string.

For example, https://git-scm.com/docs/gitrepository-layout says: info Additional information about the repository is recorded in this directory. This directory is ignored if $GIT_COMMON_DIR is set and "$GIT_COMMON_DIR/info" will be used instead. So when looking for `info/attributes`, we need to check the commondir first, or fallback to "our" `info/attributes`.

As with the preceding commit, the ignore code tries to load code from info/exclude, and we fail to ignore a non-existent file here.
Etienne Samson committed -
If creating a repository without a common directory (e.g. by using `git_repository_new`), then `git_repository_item_path` will return `GIT_ENOTFOUND` for every file that's usually located in this directory. While we do not care for this case when looking up the "info/attributes" file, we fail to properly ignore these errors when setting up or collecting attributes files. Thus, the gitattributes lookup is broken and will only ever return `GIT_ENOTFOUND`. Fix this issue by properly ignoring `GIT_ENOTFOUND` returned by `git_repository_item_path`.
Patrick Steinhardt committed -
The code in the `attr_setup` function is not really matching our current coding style. Besides alignment issues, it's also hard to see what functions calls depend on one another because they're split up over multiple conditional statements. Fix these issues by grouping together dependent function calls and adjusting the alignment.
