remote-curl: unbreak http.extraHeader with custom allocators In 93b980e58f5 (http: use xmalloc with cURL, 2019-08-15), we started to ask cURL to use `xmalloc()`, and if compiled with nedmalloc, that means implicitly a different allocator than the system one. Which means that all of cURL's allocations and releases now _need_ to use that allocator. However, the `http_options()` function used `slist_append()` to add any configured extra HTTP header(s) _before_ asking cURL to use `xmalloc()`, and `http_cleanup()` would release them _afterwards_, i.e. in the presence of custom allocators, cURL would attempt to use the wrong allocator to release the memory. A naïve attempt at fixing this would move the call to `curl_global_init()` _before_ the config is parsed (i.e. before that call to `slist_append()`). However, that does not work, as we _also_ parse the config setting `http.sslbackend` and if found, call `curl_global_sslset()` which *must* be called before `curl_global_init()`, for details see: https://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/curl_global_sslset.html So let's instead make the config parsing entirely independent from cURL's data structures. Incidentally, this deletes two more lines than it introduces, which is nice. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals.
Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses, compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.
Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.
Many Git online resources are accessible from https://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools.
See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see Documentation/giteveryday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and Documentation/git-<commandname>.txt
for documentation of each command. If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be read with man gittutorial
or git help tutorial
, and the documentation of each command with man git-<commandname>
or git help <commandname>
.
CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt (man gitcvs-migration
or git help cvs-migration
if git is installed).
The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission). To subscribe to the list, send an email with just “subscribe git” in the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at https://public-inbox.org/git/, http://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.
Issues which are security relevant should be disclosed privately to the Git Security mailing list git-security@googlegroups.com.
The maintainer frequently sends the “What's cooking” reports that list the current status of various development topics to the mailing list. The discussion following them give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.
The name “git” was given by Linus Torvalds when he wrote the very first version. He described the tool as “the stupid content tracker” and the name as (depending on your mood):
