[PATCH] rebase: exec leaks GIT_DIR to environment

[PATCH] rebase: exec leaks GIT_DIR to environment

[Jacob Keller]

From: Jacob Keller <jacob.keller@gmail.com>

I noticed a failure with git rebase interactive mode which causes "exec"
commands to be run with GIT_DIR set. When GIT_DIR is in the environment,
then any command which results in running a git command in
a subdirectory will fail because GIT_DIR=".git".

This unfortunately breaks one of my project's Makefiles, which uses
git-describe to find the version information, but does so from within
a sub directory.

I'm in the process of running a bisect to find where this got
introduced, but I suspect it's part of the rebase--helper changes that
happened a while ago.

A safe assumption. I do not know how the shell code managed that GIT_DIR
reset, though:

-- snip from v2.12.0's git-rebase--interactive.sh --
        x|"exec")
                read -r command rest < "$todo"
                mark_action_done
                eval_gettextln "Executing: \$rest"
                "${SHELL:-@SHELL_PATH@}" -c "$rest" # Actual execution
-- snap --

Maybe you can spot it?

The fix should be as easy as

*However*, your test still fails with this, as

- your added test tries to remove the directory with -ff instead of -rf

- it tries to run `git rebase --abort` afterwards, which fails with my fix
  because there is no rebase in progress

- instead of `cd subdir && ...`, it calls `>cd subdir && ...`, which
  causes it to abort with a "subdir: not fonud"

So I need this, too, to make it all work:

I only had time to write these two patches, and to verify that t3404

Maybe you can take it from there?

Yea I'm not surprised the test failed, I was in a hurry at the end of
the workday when I spotted it, but wanted to get something on the
mailing list before I left.

Just clearing GIT_DIR does not match the behavior of the shell version
(tested by passing -p to avoid rebase--helper) as that passes GIT_DIR to
exec commands if it has been explicitly set. I think that users that set
GIT_DIR on the command line would expect it to be propagated to exec
commands.

                                                            Merge commit

Hmmm, I do not mess with GIT_DIR at all in my workflow, so I am
having a bit of hard time judging if this regression is serious
enough to be a release blocker.  

I'd prefer to avoid reverting the whole js/rebase-i-final topic from
'master' this late in the game, even though I do not expect we would
see the remainder of the system gets broken due to hidden dependency
on the topic, because the changes on the topic are relatively well
isolated.

I'm not really sure what the exact fix is, since we do want to pass in
GIT_DIR if it was passed to us, but maybe it needs to be an absolute
path?

So, I don't directly mess with GIT_DIR in my use case either, I just
happened to run a build from a sub directory which relies on git
commands continuing to work. However, because GIT_DIR was set to a
relative path, it broke this Make in the subdirectory, which resulted
in the problem occurring, but *only* during the exec command, if I ran
the command manually after reach rebase step, it worked fine (since
GIT_DIR was no longer set).

I don't know how big a deal it is, since I didn't notice it for quite some time.

Thanks,
Jake

I am pretty confident we can fix it. I think the easiest solution
would be to just make sure GIT_DIR is an absolute path when passing it
to the exec command.

I am sure we can eventually, but 3 hours is not enough soak time.  

I am inclined to leave the fix for 2.15.1/2.16.0 instead of delaying
the release by 10 more days.

That's fair. I'm not even sure it was introduced since the last
release (I tried 2.12, but not 2.13 or 2.14 manually). Thus, it likely
wasn't noticed for at least a release, meaning it's less important (to
me at least) that we provide a fix immediately, since it went
unnoticed this long, likely that means few people will be impacted.

As far as I can tell, you'd only be impacted if you attempt to run a
git command from within a sub directory inside of an exec statement.
Is there some place we can list it as a known bug in case someone else
runs into it?

Jake

It is in 2.14.3, I haven't bisected but I suspect it was introduced by
311af5266b sequencer (rebase -i): implement the 'exec' command

Running
git rebase -x'perl -e '\''$,=$\="\n"; print  grep { /^GIT_/ } sort keys
%ENV'\' @
Shows that the rebase--helper version also sets GIT_PREFIX as well as
GIT_DIR, I suspect the difference is coming from differences in the
setup for builtin commands vs external commands. The shell version and
the rebase--helper version set GIT_CHERRY_PICK_HELP, GIT_EDITOR,
GIT_INTERNAL_GETTEXT_SH_SCHEME, GIT_REFLOG_ACTION

Best Wishes

Indeed, when you look at git_dir_init in git-sh-setup, you will see that
Unix shell scripts explicitly get their GIT_DIR turned into an absolute
path.

So my suggested patch is wrong, and it should be more along the lines of

	struct strbuf buf = STRBUF_INIT;
	const char *child_env[] = { NULL, NULL };

	strbuf_addf(&buf, "GIT_DIR=%s", absolute_path(get_git_dir()));
	child_env[0] = buf.buf;

	...

	strbuf_release(&buf);

Jake, can I still take you up on taking it from here?
