Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 12/12] clean: fix theoretical path corruption
Date: Thu,  5 Sep 2019 08:47:35 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190905154735.29784-13-newren@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190905154735.29784-1-newren@gmail.com>

cmd_clean() had the following code structure:

    struct strbuf abs_path = STRBUF_INIT;
    for_each_string_list_item(item, &del_list) {
        strbuf_addstr(&abs_path, prefix);
        strbuf_addstr(&abs_path, item->string);
        PROCESS(&abs_path);
        strbuf_reset(&abs_path);
    }

where I've elided a bunch of unnecessary details and PROCESS(&abs_path)
represents a big chunk of code rather than an actual function call.  One
piece of PROCESS was:

    if (lstat(abs_path.buf, &st))
        continue;

which would cause the strbuf_reset() to be missed -- meaning that the
next path to be handled would have two paths concatenated.  This path
used to use die_errno() instead of continue prior to commit 396049e5fb62
("git-clean: refactor git-clean into two phases", 2013-06-25), but my
understanding of how correct_untracked_entries() works is that it will
prevent both dir/ and dir/file from being in the list to clean so this
should be dead code and the die_errno() should be safe.  But I hesitate
to remove it since I am not certain.  Instead, just fix it to avoid path
corruption in case it is possible to reach this continue statement.
