When we transform a refspec with a component containing a glob, then we simply copy over the component until the next separator from the matching ref. E.g. if we have a ref "refs/heads/foo/bar" and a refspec "refs/heads/*/bar:refs/remotes/origin/*/bar", we: 1. Copy over everything until hitting the glob from the <dst> part: "refs/remotes/origin/". 2. Strip the common prefix of ref and <src> part until the glob, which is "refs/heads/". This leaves us with a ref of "foo/bar". 3. Copy from the ref until the next "/" separator, resulting in "refs/remotes/origin/foo". 4. Copy over the remaining part of the <dst> spec, which is "bar": "refs/remotes/origin/foo/bar". This worked just fine in a world where globs in refspecs were restricted such that a globbing component may only contain a single "*", only. But this restriction has been lifted, so that a glob component may be nested between other characters, causing the above algorithm to fail. Most notably the third step, where we copy until hitting the next "/" separator, might result in a wrong transformation. Given e.g. a ref "refs/gbranchg/head" and a refspec "refs/g*g/head:refs/remotes/origin/*", we'd also be copying the "g" between "branch" and "/" and end up with the wrong transformed ref "refs/remotes/origin/branchg". Instead of copying until the next component separator, we should copy until we hit the pattern after the "*". So in the above example, we'd copy until hitting the string "g/head".
In commit cd377f45c9 (refs: loosen restriction on wildcard "*" refspecs, 2015-07-22) in git.git, the restrictions on wildcard "*" refspecs has been loosened. While wildcards were previously only allowed if the component is a single "*", this was changed to also accept other patterns as part of the component. We never adapted to that change and still reject any wildcard patterns that aren't a single "*" only. Update our tests to reflect the upstream change and adjust our own code accordingly.
C++ style comment ("//") are not specified by the ISO C90 standard and
thus do not conform to it. While libgit2 aims to conform to C90, we did
not enforce it until now, which is why quite a lot of these
non-conforming comments have snuck into our codebase. Do a tree-wide
conversion of all C++ style comments to the supported C style comments
to allow us enforcing strict C90 compliance in a later commit.
git_refspec_transform: Handle NULL dst
Since commit 630a67366 (refspec: add public parsing api, 2018-02-07), we now have two functions `git_refspec_free` and `git_refspec__free`. The difference is that the first one will free the structure itself, while the second one will only free the structure's contents. Use our new `dispose` naming pattern for the latter function to help avoid confusion.
Verified that this breaks before the fix and passes afterwards.
