introduce gotd(8), a Git repository server reachable via ssh(1) This is an initial barebones implementation which provides the absolute minimum of functionality required to serve got(1) and git(1) clients. Basic fetch/send functionality has been tested and seems to work here, but this server is not yet expected to be stable. More testing is welcome. See the man pages for setup instructions. The current design uses one reader and one writer process per repository, which will have to be extended to N readers and N writers in the future. At startup, each process will chroot(2) into its assigned repository. This works because gotd(8) can only be started as root, and will then fork+exec, chroot, and privdrop. At present the parent process runs with the following pledge(2) promises: "stdio rpath wpath cpath proc getpw sendfd recvfd fattr flock unix unveil" The parent is the only process able to modify the repository in a way that becomes visible to Git clients. The parent uses unveil(2) to restrict its view of the filesystem to /tmp and the repositories listed in the configuration file gotd.conf(5). Per-repository chroot(2) processes use "stdio rpath sendfd recvfd". The writer defers to the parent for modifying references in the repository to point at newly uploaded commits. The reader is fine without such help, because Git repositories can be read without having to create any lock-files. gotd(8) requires a dedicated user ID, which should own repositories on the filesystem, and a separate secondary group, which should not have filesystem-level repository access, and must be allowed access to the gotd(8) socket. To obtain Git repository access, users must be members of this secondary group, and must have their login shell set to gotsh(1). gotsh(1) connects to the gotd(8) socket and speaks Git-protocol towards the client on the other end of the SSH connection. gotsh(1) is not an interactive command shell. At present, authenticated clients are granted read/write access to all repositories and all references (except for the "refs/got/" and the "refs/remotes/" namespaces, which are already being protected from modification). While complicated access control mechanism are not a design goal, making it possible to safely offer anonymous Git repository access over ssh(1) is on the road map.


allow got_object_parse_tree to reuse entries buffer allocations for speed ok millert@


remove unnecessary includes of got_lib_privsep.h


remove trailing whitespace; patch by Josiah Frentsos


parse tree entries into an array instead of a pathlist Avoids some extra malloc/free in a performance-critical path. ok op@


inline struct got_object_id in struct got_object_qid Saves us from doing a malloc/free call for every item on the list. ok op@


fix loose object file header parser for zero-length headers ok millert tracey


map raw object files into memory while packing if possible


raw object blocksize and read buffer were unused; remove them


cache raw objects in order to speed up gotadmin pack


use RB_TREE instead of STAILQ to manage packindex bloom filters; much faster


match the unsigned char type used by the zlib interface ok stsp


use less memory allocations when formatting log messages Rewrite got_object_commit_get_logmsg() such that only one memory allocation is made when creating a pretty version of a log message. ok naddy@


switch from SIMPLEQ to equivalent STAILQ macros The singly-linked tail queue macros were added to OpenBSD 6.9 and are more widely available on other systems. ok stsp


add a user data pointer to struct got_object_qid This will be required by a future 'gotadmin pack' command.
