Commit Message

Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason Sept. 28, 2021, 2:18 a.m. UTC
Improve the error that's emitted in cases where we find a loose object
we parse, but which isn't at the location we expect it to be.

Before this change we'd prefix the error with a not-a-OID derived from
the path at which the object was found, due to an emergent behavior in
how we'd end up with an "OID" in these codepaths.

Now we'll instead say what object we hashed, and what path it was
found at. Before this patch series e.g.:

    $ git hash-object --stdin -w -t blob </dev/null
    e69de29bb2d1d6434b8b29ae775ad8c2e48c5391
    $ mv objects/e6/ objects/e7

Would emit ("[...]" used to abbreviate the OIDs):

    git fsck
    error: hash mismatch for ./objects/e7/9d[...] (expected e79d[...])
    error: e79d[...]: object corrupt or missing: ./objects/e7/9d[...]

Now we'll instead emit:

    error: e69d[...]: hash-path mismatch, found at: ./objects/e7/9d[...]

Furthermore, we'll do the right thing when the object type and its
location are bad. I.e. this case:

    $ git hash-object --stdin -w -t garbage --literally </dev/null
    8315a83d2acc4c174aed59430f9a9c4ed926440f
    $ mv objects/83 objects/84

As noted in an earlier commits we'd simply die early in those cases,
until preceding commits fixed the hard die on invalid object type:

    $ git fsck
    fatal: invalid object type

Now we'll instead emit sensible error messages:

    $ git fsck
    error: 8315[...]: hash-path mismatch, found at: ./objects/84/15[...]
    error: 8315[...]: object is of unknown type 'garbage': ./objects/84/15[...]

In both fsck.c and object-file.c we're using null_oid as a sentinel
value for checking whether we got far enough to be certain that the
issue was indeed this OID mismatch.

We need to add the "object corrupt or missing" special-case to deal
with cases where read_loose_object() will return an error before
completing check_object_signature(), e.g. if we have an error in
unpack_loose_rest() because we find garbage after the valid gzip
content:

    $ git hash-object --stdin -w -t blob </dev/null
    e69de29bb2d1d6434b8b29ae775ad8c2e48c5391
    $ chmod 755 objects/e6/9de29bb2d1d6434b8b29ae775ad8c2e48c5391
    $ echo garbage >>objects/e6/9de29bb2d1d6434b8b29ae775ad8c2e48c5391
    $ git fsck
    error: garbage at end of loose object 'e69d[...]'
    error: unable to unpack contents of ./objects/e6/9d[...]
    error: e69d[...]: object corrupt or missing: ./objects/e6/9d[...]

There is currently some weird messaging in the edge case when the two
are combined, i.e. because we're not explicitly passing along an error
state about this specific scenario from check_stream_oid() via
read_loose_object() we'll end up printing the null OID if an object is
of an unknown type *and* it can't be unpacked by zlib, e.g.:

    $ git hash-object --stdin -w -t garbage --literally </dev/null
    8315a83d2acc4c174aed59430f9a9c4ed926440f
    $ chmod 755 objects/83/15a83d2acc4c174aed59430f9a9c4ed926440f
    $ echo garbage >>objects/83/15a83d2acc4c174aed59430f9a9c4ed926440f
    $ /usr/bin/git fsck
    fatal: invalid object type
    $ ~/g/git/git fsck
    error: garbage at end of loose object '8315a83d2acc4c174aed59430f9a9c4ed926440f'
    error: unable to unpack contents of ./objects/83/15a83d2acc4c174aed59430f9a9c4ed926440f
    error: 8315a83d2acc4c174aed59430f9a9c4ed926440f: object corrupt or missing: ./objects/83/15a83d2acc4c174aed59430f9a9c4ed926440f
    error: 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000: object is of unknown type 'garbage': ./objects/83/15a83d2acc4c174aed59430f9a9c4ed926440f
    [...]

I think it's OK to leave that for future improvements, which would
involve enum-ifying more error state as we've done with "enum
unpack_loose_header_result" in preceding commits. In these
increasingly more obscure cases the worst that can happen is that
we'll get slightly nonsensical or inapplicable error messages.

There's other such potential edge cases, all of which might produce
some confusing messaging, but still be handled correctly as far as
passing along errors goes. E.g. if check_object_signature() returns
and oideq(real_oid, null_oid()) is true, which could happen if it
returns -1 due to the read_istream() call having failed.
