apply: don't segfault on binary files with missing data

Usually when applying a binary diff generated without
--binary, it will be rejected early, as we don't even have
the full sha1 of the pre- and post-images.

However, if the diff is generated with --full-index (but not
--binary), then we will actually try to apply it. If we have
the postimage blob, then we can take a shortcut and never
even look at the binary diff at all (e.g., this can happen
when rebasing changes within a repository).

If we don't have the postimage blob, though, we try to look
at the actual fragments, of which there are none, and get a
segfault. This patch checks explicitly for that case and
complains to the user instead of segfaulting. We need to
keep the check at a low level so that the "shortcut" case
above continues to work.

We also add a test that demonstrates the segfault. While
we're at it, let's also explicitly test the shortcut case.

config: treat non-existent config files as empty

The git_config() function signals error by returning -1 in
two instances:

  1. An actual error occurs in opening a config file (parse
     errors cause an immediate die).

  2. Of the three possible config files, none was found.

However, this second case is often not an error at all; it
simply means that the user has no configuration (they are
outside a repo, and they have no ~/.gitconfig file). This
can lead to confusing errors, such as when the bash
completion calls "git config --list" outside of a repo. If
the user has a ~/.gitconfig, the command completes
succesfully; if they do not, it complains to stderr.

This patch allows callers of git_config to distinguish
between the two cases. Error is signaled by -1, and
otherwise the return value is the number of files parsed.
This means that the traditional "git_config(...) < 0" check
for error should work, but callers who want to know whether
we parsed any files or not can still do so.

Jonathan Nieder [Sun, 17 Oct 2010 00:38:07 +0000 (19:38 -0500)]
test_terminal: ensure redirections work reliably

For terminal tests that capture output/stderr, the TTY prerequisite
warning does not quite work for commands like

test_terminal foo >out 2>err

because the warning gets "swallowed" up by the redirection that's
supposed only to be done by the subcommand.

Even worse, the outcome depends on whether stdout was already a
terminal (in which case test_terminal is a noop) or not (in which case
test_terminal introduces a pseudo-tty in the middle of the pipeline).

$ test_terminal.perl sh -c 'test -t 1 && echo >&2 YES' >out
YES
$ sh -c 'test -t 1 && echo >&2 YES' >out
$

So:

 - use the test_terminal script even when running with "-v".

 - skip tests that require a terminal when the test_terminal
   script is unusable because IO::Pty is not installed.

 - write the "need to declare TTY prerequisite" message to fd 4,
   where it will be printed when running tests with -v, rather
   than being swallowed up by an unrelated redireciton.

test_terminal returns status 127 in this case to simulate

Also replace the SIMPLEPAGERTTY prerequisite on one test with
"SIMPLEPAGER,TTY", since (1) the latter is supported now and

send-pack: avoid redundant "pack-objects died with strange error"

Saying "pack-objects died with strange error" after "pack-objects died
of signal 13" seems kind of redundant.  The latter message was
introduced when the run-command API changed to report abnormal exits
on behalf of the caller (v1.6.5-rc0~86^2~5, 2009-07-04).

Similarly, after a controlled pack-objects failure (detectable as a
normal exit with nonzero status), a "died with strange error" message
would be redundant next to the message from pack-objects itself.

So leave off the "strange error" messages.

The result should look something like this:

$ git push sf master
Counting objects: 21542, done.
Compressing objects: 100% (4179/4179), done.
fatal: Unable to create temporary file: Permission denied
error: pack-objects died of signal 13
error: failed to push some refs to 'ssh://sf.net/gitroot/project/project'

Or in the "controlled exit" case (contrived example):

[...]
fatal: delta size changed
error: failed to push some refs to 'ssh://example.com/foo/bar'

      '<jdoe@example.com> <jdoe@example.COM>' \
      'John <jdoe@example.com>' > .mailmap

What happened?

Some .mailmap entry is of the <email1> <email2> form,
while a subsequent one looks like "User Name <Email2>,
and the two email addresses on the right are not identical
but are "equal" when using a case-insensitive comparator.

Then, when add_mapping is processing the latter line, new_email is NULL
and we free me->email, yet do not replace it with a new strdup'd string.
Thus, when later we attempt to use the buffer behind that ->email pointer,
we reference freed memory.

The solution is to free ->email and ->name only if we're about to replace them.
