dir: respect string length argument of read_directory_recursive()

A directory name is passed to read_directory_recursive() as a
length-limited string, through the parameters base and baselen.
Suprisingly, base must be a NUL-terminated string as well, as it is
passed to opendir(), ignoring baselen.

Fix this by postponing the call to opendir() until the length-limted
string is added to a strbuf, which provides a NUL in the right place.

git-sh-setup: define workaround wrappers before they are used

Recently we tweaked this scriptlet to let mingw port redefine "pwd" to
always return Windows-style path, but the code to do so came after the
first use of "pwd" to set up $GIT_DIR shell variable.

Move the block to define these workaround wrappers, so that everything
everything that executes when the scriptlet is dot-sourced uses the
replacements.

diff --no-index: reset temporary buffer lengths on directory iteration

Commit 875b91b (diff --no-index: use strbuf for temporary pathnames,
2012-04-25) introduced a regression when using diff --no-index with
directories.  When iterating through a directory, the switch to strbuf
from heap-allocated char arrays caused paths to form like 'dir/file1',
'dir/file1file2', rather than 'dir/file1', 'dir/file2' as expected.

Avoid this by resetting the paths variables to their original length
before each iteration.

rev-parse doc: --git-dir does not always show a relative path

The description was misleading because it lead the reader to believe
that --git-dir would always show a relative path when, in fact, the
actual behaviour does not guarantee this.

Rather, it was intended that the advice be given that if a relative
path is shown, then the path is relative to the current working
directory and not some other directory (for example, the root of the
working tree).

Fix t3411.3 to actually rebase something

The test intends to rebase a branchy history onto a later commit, but it
forgot to reset HEAD back to an earlier commit before it set up the side
branches. In the end, every "rebased" commit was only a fast-forward and
the 'rebase -p' did not change the commit graph at all. Insert the missing

Some people might be relying on _git and _gitk to define custom aliases,
unfortunately, commit 6b179ad (completion: add new __git_complete

  "bash: [: 1: unary operator expected"

This can be easily fixed by using __git_complete, but it's not meant to
be public.

Although _git and _gitk are probably not meant to be public, it's easy
to keep having support for them by having a wrapper to the proper
new function that is fully functional.

grep: support newline separated pattern list

Currently, patterns that contain newline characters don't match anything
when given to git grep.  Regular grep(1) interprets patterns as lists of
newline separated search strings instead.

Implement this functionality by creating and inserting extra grep_pat
structures for patterns consisting of multiple lines when appending to
the pattern lists.  For simplicity, all pattern strings are duplicated.
The original pattern is truncated in place to make it contain only the
first line.

grep: stop leaking line strings with -f

When reading patterns from a file, we pass the lines as allocated string
buffers to append_grep_pat() and never free them.  That's not a problem
because they are needed until the program ends anyway.

However, now that the function duplicates the pattern string, we can
reuse the strbuf after calling that function.  This simplifies the code
a bit and plugs a minor memory leak.

pretty: avoid buffer overflow in format_person_part

When we parse the name and email from a commit to
pretty-print them, we usually can just put the result
directly into our strbuf result. However, if we are going to
use the mailmap, then we must first copy them into a
NUL-terminated buffer to feed to the mailmap machinery.

We did so by using strlcpy into a static buffer, but we used
it wrong. We fed it the length of the substring we wanted to
copy, but never checked that that length was less than the
size of the destination buffer.

The simplest fix is to just use snprintf to copy the
substring properly while still respecting the destination
buffer's size. It might seem like replacing the static
buffer with a strbuf would help, but we need to feed a
static buffer to the mailmap machinery anyway, so there's
not much benefit to handling arbitrary sizes.

A more ideal solution would be for mailmap to grow an
interface that:

  1. Takes a pointer and length combination, instead of
     assuming a NUL-terminated string.

  2. Returns a pointer to the mailmap's allocated string,
     rather than copying it into the buffer.

Then we could avoid the need for an extra buffer entirely.
However, doing this would involve a lot of refactoring of
mailmap and of string_list (which mailmap uses to store the
map itself). For now, let's do the simplest thing to fix the
bug.

avoid segfault when reading header of malformed commits

If a commit object has a header line at the end of the
buffer that is missing its newline (or if it appears so
because the content on the header line contains a stray
NUL), then git will segfault.

Interestingly, this case is explicitly handled and we do
correctly scan the final line for the header we are looking
for. But if we don't find it, we will dereference NULL while
trying to look at the next line.

Git will never generate such a commit, but it's good to be
defensive. We could die() in such a case, but since it's
easy enough to handle it gracefully, let's just issue a
warning and continue (so you could still view such a commit
with "git show", though you might be missing headers after
the NUL).
