Subject: [PATCH 5/5] pack-objects: clamp negative depth to 0
Date: Sat, 1 May 2021 10:04:34 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <YI1f8jKReuE3LXVH@coredump.intra.peff.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <YI1fbERSuS7Y3LKh@coredump.intra.peff.net>

A negative delta depth makes no sense, and the code is not prepared to
handle it. If passed "--depth=-1" on the command line, then this line
from break_delta_chains():

	cur->depth = (total_depth--) % (depth + 1);

triggers a divide-by-zero. This is undefined behavior according to the C
standard, but on POSIX systems results in SIGFPE killing the process.
This is certainly one way to inform the use that the command was
invalid, but it's a bit friendlier to just treat it as "don't allow any
deltas", which we already do for --depth=0.
