The "seq" tool has a "-f" option to produce printf-style formatted
lines. Let's teach our test_seq helper the same trick. This lets us get
rid of some shell loops in test snippets (which are particularly verbose
in our test suite because we have to "|| return 1" to keep the &&-chain
going).
This converts a few call-sites I found by grepping around the test
suite. A few notes on these:
- In "seq", the format specifier is a "%g" float. Since test_seq only
supports integers, I've kept the more natural "%d" (which is what
these call sites were using already).
- Like "seq", test_seq automatically adds a newline to the specified
format. This is what all callers are doing already except for t0021,
but there we do not care about the exact format. We are just trying
to printf a large number of bytes to a file. It's not worth
complicating other callers or adding an option to avoid the newline
in that caller.
- Most conversions are just replacing a shell loop (which does get rid
of an extra fork, since $() requires a subshell). In t0612 we can
replace an awk invocation, which I think makes the end result more
readable, as there's less quoting.
- In t7422 we can replace one loop, but sadly we have to leave the
loop directly above it. This is because that earlier loop wants to
include the seq value twice in the output, which test_seq does not
support (nor does regular seq). If you run:
test_seq -f "foo-%d %d" 10
the second "%d" will always be the empty string. You might naively
think that test_seq could add some extra arguments, like:
# 3 ought to be enough for anyone...
printf "$fmt\n" "$i "$i" $i"
but that just triggers printf to format multiple lines, one per
extra set of arguments.
So we'd have to actually parse the format string, figure out how
many "%" placeholders are there, and then feed it that many
instances of the sequence number. The complexity isn't worth it.

While looping over a counter "i", we do:
printf "[submodule \"sm-$i\"]\npath = recursive-submodule-path-$i\n" "$i"
So we are passing "$i" as an argument to be filled in, but there is no
"%" placeholder in the format string, which is a bit confusing to read.
We could switch both instances of "$i" to "%d" (and pass $i twice). But
that makes the line even longer. Let's just keep interpolating the value
in the string, and drop the confusing extra "$i" argument.
And since we are not using any printf specifiers at all, it becomes
clear that we can swap it out for echo. We do use a "\n" in the middle
of the string, but breaking this into two separate echo statements
actually makes it easier to read.

One test in t7422 asserts that `git submodule status --recursive`
properly handles SIGPIPE. This test is flaky though and may sometimes
not see a SIGPIPE at all:
expecting success of 7422.18 'git submodule status --recursive propagates SIGPIPE':
{ git submodule status --recursive 2>err; echo $?>status; } |
grep -q X/S &&
test_must_be_empty err &&
test_match_signal 13 "$(cat status)"
++ git submodule status --recursive
++ grep -q X/S
++ echo 0
++ test_must_be_empty err
++ test 1 -ne 1
++ test_path_is_file err
++ test 1 -ne 1
++ test -f err
++ test -s err
+++ cat status
++ test_match_signal 13 0
++ test 0 = 141
++ test 0 = 269
++ return 1
error: last command exited with $?=1
not ok 18 - git submodule status --recursive propagates SIGPIPE
The issue is caused by a race between git-submodule(1) and grep(1):
1. git-submodule(1) (or its child process) writes the first X/S line
we're trying to match.
2. grep(1) matches the line.
3a. grep(1) exits, closing the pipe.
3b. git-submodule(1) (or its child process) writes the rest of its
lines.
Steps 3a and 3b happen at the same time without any guarantees. If 3a
happens first, we get SIGPIPE. Otherwise, we don't and the test fails.
Fix the issue by generating a couple thousand nested submodules and
matching on the first nested submodule. This ensures that the recursive
git-submodule(1) process completely fills its stdout buffer, which makes
subsequent writes block until the downstream consumer of the pipe either
reads more or closes it.
To verify that this works as expected one can apply the following patch
to the preimage of this commit, which used to reliably trigger the race:
diff --git a/t/t7422-submodule-output.sh b/t/t7422-submodule-output.sh

With the pipe-stuffing workaround the test runs successfully.

Now that the default value for TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK is `true` there
is no longer a need to have that variable declared in all of our tests.

It has been reported than running
git submodule status --recurse | grep -q ^+
results in an unexpected error message
fatal: failed to recurse into submodule $submodule
When "git submodule--helper" recurses into a submodule it creates a
child process. If that process fails then the error message above is
displayed by the parent. In the case above the child is killed by
SIGPIPE as "grep -q" exits as soon as it sees the first match. Fix this
by propagating SIGPIPE so that it is visible to the process running
git. We could propagate other signals but I'm not sure there is much
value in doing that. In the common case of the user pressing Ctrl-C or
Ctrl-\ then SIGINT or SIGQUIT will be sent to the foreground process
group and so the parent process will receive the same signal as the
child.

The "status" sub-command was leaking the "struct strvec" it was
setting up for the reasons explained in f92dbdbc6a (revisions API:
don't leak memory on argv elements that need free()-ing, 2022-08-02),
so let's use the "free_removed_argv_elements" option to
setup_revisions() to fix the leak.
Even if we did that, clobbering the "diff_files_args.nr" with the
return value of setup_revisions() would leave leaks in place, but we
can just stop clobbering it.
Ever since that code was added in a9f8a37584 (submodule: port
submodule subcommand 'status' from shell to C, 2017-10-06) we've had
no reason to modify the "nr" member ("argc" at the time): The next use
of "diff_files_args" after this is the "strvec_clear()" at the end of
the function.

Exhaustively test for how combining various "mixed-level" "git
submodule" option works. "Mixed-level" here means options that are
accepted by a mixture of the top-level "submodule" command, and
e.g. the "status" sub-command.
