[PATCH v5 5/9] ref: add basic symref content check for files backend

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



We have code that checks regular ref contents, but we do not yet check
the contents of symbolic refs. By using "parse_loose_ref_content" for
symbolic refs, we will get the information of the "referent".

We do not need to check the "referent" by opening the file. This is
because if "referent" exists in the file system, we will eventually
check its correctness by inspecting every file in the "refs" directory.
If the "referent" does not exist in the filesystem, this is OK as it is
seen as the dangling symref.

So we just need to check the "referent" string content. A regular could
be accepted as a textual symref if it begins with "ref:", followed by
zero or more whitespaces, followed by the full refname, followed only by
whitespace characters. However, we always write a single SP after "ref:"
and a single LF after the refname. It may seem that we should report a
fsck error message when the "referent" does not apply above rules and we
should not be so aggressive because third-party reimplementations of Git
may have taken advantage of the looser syntax. Put it more specific, we
accept the following "referent":

1. "ref: refs/heads/master   "
2. "ref: refs/heads/master   \n  \n"
3. "ref: refs/heads/master\n\n"

When introducing the regular ref content checks, we created a new fsck
message "unofficialFormattedRef" which exactly represents above
situation. So we will reuse this fsck message to write checks to info
the user about these situations.

But we do not allow any other trailing garbage. The followings are bad
symref contents which will be reported as fsck error by "git-fsck(1)".

1. "ref: refs/heads/master garbage\n"
2. "ref: refs/heads/master \n\n\n garbage  "

And we introduce a new "badReferent(ERROR)" fsck message to report above
errors by using "ref.c::check_refname_format". But we cannot just pass
the "referent" to this function because the "referent" might contain
some whitespaces which will cause "check_refname_format" failing.

In order to add checks, we will do the following things:

1. Record the untrimmed length "orig_len" and untrimmed last byte
   "orig_last_byte".
2. Use "strbuf_rtrim" to trim the whitespaces or newlines to make sure
   "check_refname_format" won't be failed by them.
3. Use "orig_len" and "orig_last_byte" to check whether the "referent"
   misses '\n' at the end or it has trailing whitespaces or newlines.
