These patches correspond to a second part of patch series 
of Outreachy project "Finish converting `git bisect` from shell to C" 
started by Pranit Bauva and Tanushree Tumane
(https://public-inbox.org/git/pull.117.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com) and
continued by me.

These patch series emails were generated from:
https://gitlab.com/mirucam/git/commits/git-bisect-work-part2-v7.

I would like to thank Junio Hamano for reviewing this patch series.

General changes
---------------

* Rebased on e9b77c84a0 (Tenth batch, 2020-08-24), to build on the
  strvec API (instead of argv_array) and adjust to the codebase
  after the "--first-parent" feature was added.


Specific changes
----------------

[1/13] bisect--helper: BUG() in cmd_*() on invalid subcommand

* Amend commit message.
* Remove casting to int.

---

[2/13] bisect--helper: use '-res' in 'cmd_bisect__helper' return

* Amend commit message.

---

[3/13] bisect--helper: introduce new `write_in_file()` function

* Use saved_errno variable.

---

[5/13] bisect--helper: reimplement `bisect_autostart` shell function in C

* Fix bug using empty_strvec instead of NULL in a `bisect_start()` call.

---


[6/13] bisect--helper: reimplement `bisect_next` and `bisect_auto_next` shell
 functions in C
 
* Remove unused `no-checkout` variable.
* Move a comment to more appropriate place.

In cmd_bisect__helper() function, if an invalid or no
subcommand is passed there is a BUG.

BUG() out instead of returning an error.

Following 'enum bisect_error' vocabulary, return variable 'res' is
always non-positive.
Let's use '-res' instead of 'abs(res)' to make the code clearer.

Let's refactor code adding a new `write_in_file()` function
that opens a file for writing a message and closes it and a
wrapper for writing mode.

This helper will be used in later steps and makes the code
simpler and easier to understand.

From: Pranit Bauva <pranit.bauva@gmail.com>

Reimplement the `bisect_autostart()` shell function in C and add the
C implementation from `bisect_next()` which was previously left
uncovered.

Add `--bisect-autostart` subcommand to be called from git-bisect.sh.
Using `--bisect-autostart` subcommand is a temporary measure to port
the shell function to C so as to use the existing test suite. As more
functions are ported, this subcommand will be retired and
bisect_autostart() will be called directly by `bisect_state()`.

As there can be other revision walks after bisect_next_all(),
let's add a call to a function to clear all the marks at the
end of bisect_next_all().

Reimplement the `bisect_next()` and the `bisect_auto_next()` shell functions
in C and add the subcommands to `git bisect--helper` to call them from
git-bisect.sh .

bisect_auto_next() function returns an enum bisect_error type as whole
`git bisect` can exit with an error code when bisect_next() does.

Using `--bisect-next` and `--bisect-auto-next` subcommands is a
temporary measure to port shell function to C so as to use the existing
test suite. As more functions are ported, `--bisect-auto-next`
subcommand will be retired and will be called by some other methods.

From: Pranit Bauva <pranit.bauva@gmail.com>

Add the subcommand to `git bisect--helper` and call it from
git-bisect.sh.

With the conversion of `bisect_auto_next()` from shell to C in a
previous commit, `bisect_start()` can now be fully ported to C.

So let's complete the `--bisect-start` subcommand of
`git bisect--helper` so that it fully implements `bisect_start()`,
and let's use this subcommand in `git-bisect.sh` instead of
`bisect_start()`.

The `--bisect-clean-state` subcommand is no longer used from the
git-bisect.sh shell script. Instead the function
`bisect_clean_state()` is directly called from the C
implementation.

The `--next-all` subcommand is no longer used from the git-bisect.sh
shell script. Instead the function `bisect_next_all()` is called from
the C implementation of `bisect_next()`.

From: Pranit Bauva <pranit.bauva@gmail.com>

Reimplement the `bisect_state()` shell functions in C and also add a
subcommand `--bisect-state` to `git-bisect--helper` to call them from
git-bisect.sh .

Using `--bisect-state` subcommand is a temporary measure to port shell
function to C so as to use the existing test suite. As more functions
are ported, this subcommand will be retired and will be called by some
other methods.

`bisect_head()` is only called from `bisect_state()`, thus it is not
required to introduce another subcommand.

The `--write-terms` subcommand is no longer used from the
git-bisect.sh shell script. Instead the function `write_terms()`
is called from the C implementation of `set_terms()` and
`bisect_start()`.

The `--bisect-autostart` subcommand is no longer used from the
git-bisect.sh shell script. Instead the function
`bisect_autostart()` is directly called from the C implementation.

Not a big deal, but we have only two callers to `isatty()` that use the
`_FILENO` constants, and neither of them is about stdin. But that is not a
big deal.

However, when we cannot auto-start, the shell script version calls `exit
1` to cause a failure. I think we need to do the same here, i.e. `return
-1;`.

The corresponding shell script code reads like this:

                        read yesno
                        case "$yesno" in
                        [Nn]*)
                                exit ;;
                        esac

That is, if the user does not want to start, the command exits. With exit
code 0, i.e. success.

However, we do not do that here.

Now, you could argue (in the commit message) that this actually fixes a
bug (because if the bisection was aborted, that does not count for
success), and I'd be fine with that.

This (and the change below as well) is insufficient, as it won't `exit` in
case of an error (or in case the user aborted). I think you need to append
`|| exit` as is done two lines below this line.

We need to handle a negative value returned by `bisect_autostart()` by
aborting, e.g. `return BISECT_FAILED;`.

This returns an error when `bisect_next()` failed, which is different from
what the shell script version did:

	git bisect--helper --bisect-next-check $TERM_GOOD $TERM_BAD && bisect_next || :

(note the trailing `|| :`, which will always return success).

I think this is a bug fix, though, so the change is good. But it probably
deserves to be called out in the commit message.

I am curious: what is the reason not to use a trailing comma, and what is
the reason to force AUTOSTART to stay at the end (instead of appending the
new modes, which strikes me as more natural)?

We probably need to append `|| exit` here.

Is this comment still correct in the C version? I thought we had succeeded
in removing that shell scripting wart by turning all the `exit`s into
`return`s...

I think we need to append something like `test 0 = $? || exit $?` here, as
the `eval`ed command can no longer exit.

In fact, I think that the `eval` here no longer makes sense, as the only
reason we did that before was that `bisect_start` could `exit` and we did
not want that here.

I guess we do not need to append `|| exit` here because this will be the
last command in the script to be executed anyway, therefore its exit
status will become the exit status of the script.

Thank you,
Johannes

Good. Technically, this is a deviation from the scripted version, but it
is good not to check and set the terms first, only to then error out
anyway.

However, I think we will need a call to `bisect_autostart()` somewhere
around here, as that is what the scripted version did first thing.

If I am not mistaken, we should convert this shell command more faithfully
here:

			die "$(eval_gettext "Bad rev input: \$bisected_head")"

i.e. something like this:

		const char *head = "BISECT_HEAD";
		enum get_oid_result res_head = get_oid(head, &oid);

		if (res_head == MISSING_OBJECT) {
			head = "HEAD";
			res_head = get_oid(head, &oid);
		}

		if (res_head)
			error(_("Bad rev input: %s"), head);

Nice! This reads so much easier than the shell script version.

Since `bisect--helper` cannot cause the shell script to `exit`, the `eval`
should no longer be necessary.

I don't think we should include implementation details such as the use of
`bisect--helper` in the error message. Personally, I would either keep
`bisect_state` or paraphrase what failed in English to begin with.

Excellent progress, and thank you for your patience and diligence working
on this patch series. I think we are _really_ close to being ready for
`next`.

Thank you for your comments and encouragement.
Applying some of your suggestions related to removing some 'eval' in
git-bisect shell script, a bug has appeared. It seems it is related to
a previous code merged before my internship.
Christian Couder will take over this fix, but in the meantime I will
send a subset of this part2, with the first six patches of this patch
series (and that are not affected by the problem) in order to move
them forward and be accepted, hopefully .
Best,
Miriam

Now you got me curious: what bug did you see?

Okay, good. Let me know if I can help!

I found your fork and ran the test, and this is the first symptom:

-- snip --
[...]
++ git bisect skip
Bisecting: 1 revision left to test after this (roughly 1 step)
[32a594a3fdac2d57cf6d02987e30eec68511498c] Add <4: Ciao for now> into <hello>.
++ git bisect good
++ grep '3082e11d3a0f2edca194c8ce1eb802256e38e75e is the first bad commit' my_bisect_log.txt
3082e11d3a0f2edca194c8ce1eb802256e38e75e is the first bad commit
++ git bisect log
++ git bisect reset
Previous HEAD position was 32a594a Add <4: Ciao for now> into <hello>.
Switched to branch 'other'
ok 22 - bisect skip: add line and then a new test

expecting success of 6030.23 'bisect skip and bisect replay':
        git bisect replay log_to_replay.txt > my_bisect_log.txt &&
        grep "$HASH5 is the first bad commit" my_bisect_log.txt &&
        git bisect reset

++ git bisect replay log_to_replay.txt
error: update_ref failed for ref 'refs/bisect/bad': cannot update ref 'refs/bisect/bad': trying to write ref 'refs/bisect/bad' with nonexistent object 10006d020000000068986d020000000054f65f00
error: last command exited with $?=1
not ok 23 - bisect skip and bisect replay
#
#               git bisect replay log_to_replay.txt > my_bisect_log.txt &&
#               grep "$HASH5 is the first bad commit" my_bisect_log.txt &&
#               git bisect reset
-- snap --

So I dug a little bit further (and applied Christian's patch in the
meantime), and it turns out that the `eval` has nothing to do with what I
originally thought it would be required for: I thought that it wanted to
prevent `exit` calls from actually exiting the script.

Instead, those `eval` calls are required because the arguments are
provided in quoted form. For example, during the execution of t6030.68,
the `eval` would expand the call

	eval "git bisect--helper --bisect-start $rev $tail"

to

	git bisect--helper --bisect-start '--term-old' 'term2' '--term-new' 'term1'

Therefore, the `eval` really needs to stay in place (also the other `eval`
I had originally suggested to remove, for the same reason).

I would still recommend appending `|| exit`, even if it just so happens
that we will eventually abort when the `bisect--helper` command failed
anyway, because the next command will then fail, and abort. But it's
cleaner to abort already when this invocation failed rather than relying
on that side effect.

Ciao,
Dscho

Yeah, that was also what I found (along with the bug I sent a patch for).

Yeah, I think it's a good solution.

Thanks for taking a look,

I suspected that you had found that out, but I really wanted a record on
the Git mailing list about our findings.

It might be a good idea to add a paragraph to the respective patches,
along these lines:

	Note that the `eval` in the changed line of `git-bisect.sh` cannot be
	dropped: it is necessary because the `rev` and the `tail`
	variables may contain multiple, quoted arguments that need to be
	passed to `bisect--helper` (without the quotes, naturally).

Excellent. I think we can actually move forward with the entire patch
series now, not just the first subset, right?

Ciao,

Yeah, sure. Hopefully Miriam will send this in the commit message of
the right patch which is in the subset of the patch series she hasn't
sent.
