e904deb89d submodule: reject submodule.update = !command in .gitmodules
Since ac1fbbda20 (submodule: do not copy unknown update mode from
.gitmodules, 2013-12-02), Git has been careful to avoid copying

	[submodule "foo"]
		update = !run an arbitrary scary command

from .gitmodules to a repository's local config, copying in the
setting 'update = none' instead.  The gitmodules(5) manpage documents
the intention:

	The !command form is intentionally ignored here for security
	reasons

Unfortunately, starting with v2.20.0-rc0 (which integrated ee69b2a9
(submodule--helper: introduce new update-module-mode helper,
2018-08-13, first released in v2.20.0-rc0)), there are scenarios where
we *don't* ignore it: if the config store contains no
submodule.foo.update setting, the submodule-config API falls back to
reading .gitmodules and the repository-supplied !command gets run
after all.

This was part of a general change over time in submodule support to
read more directly from .gitmodules, since unlike .git/config it
allows a project to change values between branches and over time
(while still allowing .git/config to override things).  But it was
never intended to apply to this kind of dangerous configuration.

The behavior change was not advertised in ee69b2a9's commit message
and was missed in review.

Let's take the opportunity to make the protection more robust, even in
Git versions that are technically not affected: instead of quietly
converting 'update = !command' to 'update = none', noisily treat it as
an error.  Allowing the setting but treating it as meaning something
else was just confusing; users are better served by seeing the error
sooner.  Forbidding the construct makes the semantics simpler and
means we can check for it in fsck (in a separate patch).

As a result, the submodule-config API cannot read this value from
.gitmodules under any circumstance, and we can declare with confidence

	For security reasons, the '!command' form is not accepted
	here.

The only references to Gmane that remain are in RelNotes. Although these
are definitely not in active use, they might be of historical interest
for future readers so let's ensure that mail references are more robust.

Replace links to Gmane with links to lore.kernel.org (which is our new
preferred mailing list archive and has the Message-ID in the URL) and
bare Gmane ID references with Message-IDs.

The Message-IDs were found by searching for "gmane:<id>" on

a9aecc7abb checkout, restore: support the --pathspec-from-file option
Decisions taken for simplicity:
1) For now, `--pathspec-from-file` is declared incompatible with
   `--patch`, even when <file> is not `stdin`. Such use case it not
   really expected.
2) It is not allowed to pass pathspec in both args and file.

`you must specify path(s) to restore` block was moved down to be able to
test for `pathspec.nr` instead, because testing for `argc` is no longer
correct.

`git switch` does not support the new options because it doesn't expect
`<pathspec>` arguments.

It was added in [1]. I understand that the duplicate change was not

Also, in explanation, there was only one section for two synopsis
entries.

Fix both problems by removing duplicate synopsis.

<paths> vs <pathspec> is resolved in next patch.

a52ed76142 fast-import: disallow "feature import-marks" by default
As with export-marks in the previous commit, import-marks can access the
filesystem. This is significantly less dangerous than export-marks
because it only involves reading from arbitrary paths, rather than
writing them. However, it could still be surprising and have security
implications (e.g., exfiltrating data from a service that accepts
fast-import streams).

Let's lump it (and its "if-exists" counterpart) in with export-marks,
and enable the in-stream version only if --allow-unsafe-features is set.

68061e3470 fast-import: disallow "feature export-marks" by default
The fast-import stream command "feature export-marks=<path>" lets the
stream write marks to an arbitrary path. This may be surprising if you
are running fast-import against an untrusted input (which otherwise
cannot do anything except update Git objects and refs).

Let's disallow the use of this feature by default, and provide a
command-line option to re-enable it (you can always just use the
command-line --export-marks as well, but the in-stream version provides
an easy way for exporters to control the process).

This is a backwards-incompatible change, since the default is flipping
to the new, safer behavior. However, since the main users of the
in-stream versions would be import/export-based remote helpers, and
since we trust remote helpers already (which are already running
arbitrary code), we'll pass the new option by default when reading a
remote helper's stream. This should minimize the impact.

Note that the implementation isn't totally simple, as we have to work
around the fact that fast-import doesn't parse its command-line options
until after it has read any "feature" lines from the stream. This is how
it lets command-line options override in-stream. But in our case, it's
important to parse the new --allow-unsafe-features first.

There are three options for resolving this:

  1. Do a separate "early" pass over the options. This is easy for us to
     do because there are no command-line options that allow the
     "unstuck" form (so there's no chance of us mistaking an argument
     for an option), though it does introduce a risk of incorrect
     parsing later (e.g,. if we convert to parse-options).

  2. Move the option parsing phase back to the start of the program, but
     teach the stream-reading code never to override an existing value.
     This is tricky, because stream "feature" lines override each other
     (meaning we'd have to start tracking the source for every option).

  3. Accept that we might parse a "feature export-marks" line that is
     forbidden, as long we don't _act_ on it until after we've parsed
     the command line options.

     This would, in fact, work with the current code, but only because
     the previous patch fixed the export-marks parser to avoid touching
     the filesystem.

     So while it works, it does carry risk of somebody getting it wrong
     in the future in a rather subtle and unsafe way.

I've gone with option (1) here as simple, safe, and unlikely to cause
regressions.

This fixes CVE-2019-1348.

4f3e57ef13 submodule--helper: advise on fatal alternate error
When recursively cloning a superproject with some shallow modules
defined in its .gitmodules, then recloning with "--reference=<path>", an
error occurs. For example:

  git clone --recurse-submodules --branch=master -j8 \
    https://android.googlesource.com/platform/superproject \
    master
  git clone --recurse-submodules --branch=master -j8 \
    https://android.googlesource.com/platform/superproject \
    --reference master master2

fails with:

  fatal: submodule '<snip>' cannot add alternate: reference repository
  '<snip>' is shallow

When a alternate computed from the superproject's alternate cannot be
added, whether in this case or another, advise about configuring the
"submodule.alternateErrorStrategy" configuration option and using
"--reference-if-able" instead of "--reference" when cloning.

10c64a0b3c Doc: explain submodule.alternateErrorStrategy
Commit 31224cbdc7 ("clone: recursive and reference option triggers
submodule alternates", 2016-08-17) taught Git to support the
configuration options "submodule.alternateLocation" and
"submodule.alternateErrorStrategy" on a superproject.

If "submodule.alternateLocation" is configured to "superproject" on a
superproject, whenever a submodule of that superproject is cloned, it
instead computes the analogous alternate path for that submodule from
$GIT_DIR/objects/info/alternates of the superproject, and references it.

The "submodule.alternateErrorStrategy" option determines what happens
if that alternate cannot be referenced. However, it is not clear that
the clone proceeds as if no alternate was specified when that option is
not set to "die" (as can be seen in the tests in 31224cbdc7). Therefore,
document it accordingly.
