AFAIUI manipulating the strvec directly like this means that we will violate the promise that strvec.v is always NULL-terminated. It's probably safer to call 'strvec_push(run_args, command.buf)' instead of manipulating v and nr? Violating the NULL-termination promise a problem because... (continued below)
+
+ while (1) {
+ strvec_clear(&args);
+ exit = 1;
+
+ printf(_("running %s"), command.buf);
+ res = run_command_v_opt(run_args.v, RUN_USING_SHELL);
run_command_v_opt() implicitly expects a NULL-terminated list of
strings. It's not documented in run_command_v_opt()'s comments, however
run_command_v_opt() does explain that it's a wrapper around
start_command(), which uses child_process, and child_process.argv is
documented to require a NULL-terminated list.
If argv is not NULL-terminated, we hit a buffer overflow read in
prepare_shell_cmd(), which can be reproduced by running something like:
make CC=clang-11 SANITIZE=address COPTS="-Og -g" GIT_TEST_OPTS=-v
T=t6030-bisect-porcelain.sh test
which results in ASAN reporting this error:
