Since [1] there has been no reason for keeping "git env--helper" a
built-in. The reason it was a built-in to begin with was to support
the GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON mode removed in that commit. I.e. unlike
the rest of "test-tool" it would potentially be called by the
installed git via "git-sh-i18n.sh".
As none of that applies since [1] we should stop carrying this
technical debt, and move it to t/helper/*. As this mostly move-only
change shows this has the nice bonus that we'll stop wasting time
translating the internal-only strings it emits.
Even though this was a built-in, it was intentionally never
documented, see its introduction in [2]. It never saw use outside of
the test suite, except for the "GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON" use-case
noted above.

While git can be compiled with SANITIZE=leak, we have not run
regression tests under that mode. Memory leaks have only been fixed as
one-offs without structured regression testing.
This change adds CI testing for it. We'll now build and small set of
whitelisted t00*.sh tests under Linux with a new job called
"linux-leaks".
The CI target uses a new GIT_TEST_PASSING_SANITIZE_LEAK=true test
mode. When running in that mode, we'll assert that we were compiled
with SANITIZE=leak. We'll then skip all tests, except those that we've
opted-in by setting "TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK=true".
A test setting "TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK=true" setting can in turn
make use of the "SANITIZE_LEAK" prerequisite, should they wish to
selectively skip tests even under
"GIT_TEST_PASSING_SANITIZE_LEAK=true". In the preceding commit we
started doing this in "t0004-unwritable.sh" under SANITIZE=leak, now
it'll combine nicely with "GIT_TEST_PASSING_SANITIZE_LEAK=true".
This is how tests that don't set "TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK=true" will
be skipped under GIT_TEST_PASSING_SANITIZE_LEAK=true:
$ GIT_TEST_PASSING_SANITIZE_LEAK=true ./t0001-init.sh
1..0 # SKIP skip all tests in t0001 under SANITIZE=leak, TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK not set
The intent is to add more TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK=true annotations
as follow-up change, but let's start small to begin with.
In ci/run-build-and-tests.sh we make use of the default "*" case to
run "make test" without any GIT_TEST_* modes. SANITIZE=leak is known
to fail in combination with GIT_TEST_SPLIT_INDEX=true in
t0016-oidmap.sh, and we're likely to have other such failures in
various GIT_TEST_* modes. Let's focus on getting the base tests
passing, we can expand coverage to GIT_TEST_* modes later.
It would also be possible to implement a more lightweight version of
this by only relying on setting "LSAN_OPTIONS". See
<YS9OT/pn5rRK9cGB@coredump.intra.peff.net>[1] and
<YS9ZIDpANfsh7N+S@coredump.intra.peff.net>[2] for a discussion of
that. I've opted for this approach of adding a GIT_TEST_* mode instead
because it's consistent with how we handle other special test modes.
Being able to add a "!SANITIZE_LEAK" prerequisite and calling
"test_done" early if it isn't satisfied also means that we can more
incrementally add regression tests without being forced to fix
widespread and hard-to-fix leaks at the same time.
We have tests that do simple checking of some tool we're interested
in, but later on in the script might be stressing trace2, or common
sources of leaks like "git log" in combination with the tool (e.g. the
commit-graph tests). To be clear having a prerequisite could also be
accomplished by using "LSAN_OPTIONS" directly.
On the topic of "LSAN_OPTIONS": It would be nice to have a mode to
aggregate all failures in our various scripts, see [2] for a start at
doing that which sets "log_path" in "LSAN_OPTIONS". I've punted on
that for now, it can be added later.
As of writing this we've got major regressions between master..seen,
i.e. the t000*.sh tests and more fixed since 31f9acf9ce2 (Merge branch
'ah/plugleaks', 2021-08-04) have regressed recently.
See the discussion at <87czsv2idy.fsf@evledraar.gmail.com>[3] about
the lack of this sort of test mode, and 0e5bba53af (add UNLEAK
annotation for reducing leak false positives, 2017-09-08) for the
initial addition of SANITIZE=leak.
See also 09595ab381 (Merge branch 'jk/leak-checkers', 2017-09-19),
7782066f67 (Merge branch 'jk/apache-lsan', 2019-05-19) and the recent
936e58851a (Merge branch 'ah/plugleaks', 2021-05-07) for some of the
past history of "one-off" SANITIZE=leak (and more) fixes.
As noted in [5] we can't support this on OSX yet until Clang 14 is
released, at that point we'll probably want to resurrect that
"osx-leaks" job.

This removes the ability to inject "poison" gettext() messages via the
GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON special test setup.
I initially added this as a compile-time option in bb946bba761 (i18n:
add GETTEXT_POISON to simulate unfriendly translator, 2011-02-22), and
most recently modified to be toggleable at runtime in
6cdccfce1e0 (i18n: make GETTEXT_POISON a runtime option, 2018-11-08)..
The reason for its removal is that the trade-off of maintaining it
v.s. what it's getting us has long since flipped. When gettext was
integrated in 5e9637c6297 (i18n: add infrastructure for translating
Git with gettext, 2011-11-18) there was understandable concern on the
Git ML that in marking messages for translation en-masse we'd
inadvertently mark plumbing messages. The GETTEXT_POISON facility was
a way to smoke those out via our test suite.
Nowadays however we're done (or almost entirely done) with any marking
of messages for translation. New messages are usually marked by their
authors, who'll know whether it makes sense to translate them or
not. If not any errors in marking the messages are much more likely to
be spotted in review than in the the initial deluge of i18n patches in
the 2011-2012 era.
So let's just remove this. This leaves the test suite in a state where
we still have a lot of test_i18n, C_LOCALE_OUTPUT
etc. uses. Subsequent commits will remove those too.
The change to t/lib-rebase.sh is a selective revert of the relevant
part of f2d17068fd (i18n: rebase-interactive: mark comments of squash
for translation, 2016-06-17), and the comment in
t/t3406-rebase-message.sh is from c7108bf9ed (i18n: rebase: mark
messages for translation, 2012-07-25).

Change the GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON variable from being "non-empty?" to
being a more standard boolean variable.
Since it needed to be checked in both C code and shellscript (via test
-n) it was one of the remaining shellscript-like variables. Now that
we have "env--helper" we can change that.
There's a couple of tricky edge cases that arise because we're using
git_env_bool() early, and the config-reading "env--helper".
If GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON is set to an invalid value die_bad_number()
will die, but to do so it would usually call gettext(). Let's detect
the special case of GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON and always emit that
message in the C locale, lest we infinitely loop.
As seen in the updated tests in t0017-env-helper.sh there's also a
caveat related to "env--helper" needing to read the config for trace2
purposes.
Since the C_LOCALE_OUTPUT prerequisite is lazy and relies on
"env--helper" we could get invalid results if we failed to read the
config (e.g. because we'd loop on includes) when combined with
e.g. "test_i18ngrep" wanting to check with "env--helper" if
GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON was true or not.
I'm crossing my fingers and hoping that a test similar to the one I
removed in the earlier "config tests: simplify include cycle test"
change in this series won't happen again, and testing for this
explicitly in "env--helper"'s own tests.
This change breaks existing uses of
e.g. GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON=YesPlease, which we've documented in
po/README and other places. As noted in [1] we might want to consider
also accepting "YesPlease" in "env--helper" as a special-case.
But as the lack of uproar over 6cdccfce1e ("i18n: make GETTEXT_POISON
a runtime option", 2018-11-08) demonstrates the audience for this
option is a really narrow set of git developers, who shouldn't have
much trouble modifying their test scripts, so I think it's better to
deal with that minor headache now and make all the relevant GIT_TEST_*
variables boolean in the same way than carry the "YesPlease"
special-case forward.

We have many GIT_TEST_* variables that accept a <boolean> because
they're implemented in C, and then some that take <non-empty?> because
they're implemented at least partially in shellscript.
Add a helper that wraps git_env_bool() and git_env_ulong() as the
first step in fixing this. This isn't being added as a test-tool mode
because some of these are used outside the test suite.
Part of what this tool does can be done via a trick with "git config"
added in 83d842dc8c ("tests: turn on network daemon tests by default",
2014-02-10) for test_tristate(), i.e.:
git -c magic.variable="$1" config --bool magic.variable 2>/dev/null
But as subsequent changes will show being able to pass along the
default value makes all the difference, and we'll be able to replace
test_tristate() itself with that.
The --type=bool option will be used by subsequent patches, but not
--type=ulong. I figured it was easy enough to add it & test for it so
I left it in so we'd have wrappers for both git_env_*() functions, and
to have a template to make it obvious how we'd add --type=int etc. if
it's needed in the future.
