8e4b968cb3 wincred: Avoid memory corruption
`wcsncpy_s()` wants to write the terminating null character so we need
to allocate one more space for it in the target memory block.

This should fix crashes when trying to read passwords.  When this
happened, the password/token wouldn't print out and Git would therefore
ask for a new password every time.

Now I did, and my speculations were both correct.  The SANITIZE=leak
build fails, and with these two releases the test passes.

You can squash this in, or I can do so myself if you like, if this
is the only change that is required.

18c819bca4 diff --no-index: fix logic for paths ending in '/'
If one of the two provided paths for git diff --no-index ends in a '/',
a failure similar to the following occurs:

  $ git diff --no-index -- /tmp/ /tmp/ ':!'
  fatal: `pos + len' is too far after the end of the buffer

This occurs because of an incorrect calculation of the skip lengths in
diff_no_index(). The code wants to calculate the length of the string,
but add one in case the string doesn't end with a slash.

The method it uses is incorrect, as it always checks the trailing NUL
character of the string. This will never be a '/', so we always add one.
In the event that we *do* have a trailing slash, this will create an
off-by-one length error later when using the skip value.

The most straightforward fix would be to correct the skip1 and skip2
lengths by using ends_with().

However, Johannes made a good point that the existing logic is wasting a
lot of computation. We generate the match string by copying the path in
and then skipping almost all of it immediately with a potentially
expensive memmove() from the strbuf_remove() call. We also re-initialize
the match stringbuf each time we call read_directory_contents.

The read_directory_contents really wants a path that is rooted at the
start of the directory scan. We're currently building this by taking the
full path and stripping out the start portion. Instead, replace this
logic by building up the portion of the match as we go.

Start by initializing two strbuf in diff_no_index containing the empty
string. Pass these into queue_diff, which in turn passes the appropriate
left or right side into read_directory_contents.

As before, we build up the matches by appending elements to the match
path and then clearing them using strbuf_setlen.

In the recursive portion of the queue_diff algorithm, we build up new
match paths the same way that we build up new buffer paths, by appending
the elements and then clearing them with strbuf_setlen after each
iteration. This is cheaper as it avoids repeated allocations, and is a
bit simpler to track what is going on.

Add a couple of test cases that pass in paths already ending in '/', to
ensure the tests cover this regression.

40f6c69fc5 contrib/subtree: fix split with squashed subtrees
98ba49ccc2 (subtree: fix split processing with multiple subtrees
present, 2023-12-01) increases the performance of

    git subtree split --prefix=subA

by ignoring subtree merges which are outside of `subA/`. It also
introduces a regression. Subtree merges that should be retained
are incorrectly ignored if they:

1. are nested under `subA/`; and
2. are merged with `--squash`.

For example, a subtree merged like:

    git subtree merge --squash --prefix=subA/subB "$rev"
    #                 ^^^^^^^^          ^^^^

is erroneously ignored during a split of `subA`. This causes
missing tree files and different commit hashes starting in
git v2.44.0-rc0.

The method:

    should_ignore_subtree_split_commit REV

should test only a single commit REV, but the combination of

    git log -1 --grep=...

actually searches all *parent* commits until a `--grep` match is
discovered.

Rewrite this method to test only one REV at a time. Extract commit
information with a single `git` call as opposed to three. The
`test` conditions for rejecting a commit remain unchanged.

Unit tests now cover nested subtrees.

5b44c3bd57 rebase -i: respect commit.cleanup when picking fixups
If the user uses a prepare-commit-msg hook to add comments to the
commit message template and sets commit.cleanup to remove them when the
commit is created then the comments will not be removed when rebase
commits the final command in a chain of "fixup" commands[1].  This
happens because f7d42ceec52 (rebase -i: do leave commit message intact
in fixup! chains, 2021-01-28) started passing the VERBATIM_MSG flag
when committing the final command in a chain of "fixup" commands. That
change was added in response to a bug report[2] where the commit
message was being cleaned up when it should not be. The cause of that
bug was that before f7d42ceec52 the sequencer passed CLEANUP_MSG
when committing the final fixup. That commit should have simply
removed the CLEANUP_MSG flag, not changed it to VERBATIM_MSG. Using
VERBATIM_MSG ignores the user's commit.cleanup config when committing
the final fixup which means it behaves differently to an ordinary
"pick" command which respects commit.cleanup.

Fix this by not setting an explicit cleanup flag when committing the
final fixup which matches the way "pick" commands behave. The test
added in f7d42ceec52 is replaced with one that checks that "fixup"
and "pick" commands do not clean up the message when commit.cleanup
is not set and do clean up the message when it is set.

948b2ab0d8 refs/files: handle D/F conflicts during locking
The previous commit added the necessary validation and checks for F/D
conflicts in the files backend when working on case insensitive systems.

There is still a possibility for D/F conflicts. This is a different from
the F/D since for F/D conflicts, there would not be a conflict during
the lock creation phase:

    refs/heads/foo.lock
    refs/heads/foo/bar.lock

However there would be a conflict when the locks are committed, since we
cannot have 'refs/heads/foo/bar' and 'refs/heads/foo'. These kinds of
conflicts are checked and resolved in
`refs_verify_refnames_available()`, so the previous commit ensured that
for case-insensitive filesystems, we would lowercase the inputs to that
function.

For D/F conflicts, there is a conflict during the lock creation phase
itself:

    refs/heads/foo/bar.lock
    refs/heads/foo.lock

As in `lock_raw_ref()` after creating the lock, we also check for D/F
conflicts. This can occur in case-insensitive filesystems when trying to
fetch case-conflicted references like:

    refs/heads/Foo/new
    refs/heads/foo

D/F conflicts can also occur in case-sensitive filesystems, when the
repository already contains a directory with a lock file
'refs/heads/foo/bar.lock' and trying to fetch 'refs/heads/foo'. This
doesn't concern directories containing garbage files as those are
handled on a higher level.

To fix this, simply categorize the error as a name conflict. Also remove
this reference from the list of valid refnames for availability checks.
By categorizing the error and removing it from the list of valid
references, batched updates now knows to reject such reference updates
and apply the other reference updates.

Fix a small typo in `ref_transaction_maybe_set_rejected()` while here.

770f389b2d refs/files: handle F/D conflicts in case-insensitive FS
When using the files-backend on case-insensitive filesystems, there is
possibility of hitting F/D conflicts when creating references within a
single transaction, such as:

  - 'refs/heads/foo'
  - 'refs/heads/Foo/bar'

Ideally such conflicts are caught in `refs_verify_refnames_available()`
which is responsible for checking F/D conflicts within a given
transaction. This utility function is shared across the reference
backends. As such, it doesn't consider the issues of using a
case-insensitive file system, which only affects the files-backend.

While one solution would be to make the function aware of such issues,
this feels like leaking implementation details of file-backend specific
issues into the utility function. So opt for the more simpler option, of
lowercasing all references sent to this function when on a
case-insensitive filesystem and operating on the files-backend.

To do this, simply use a `struct strbuf` to convert the refname to
lowercase and append it to the list of refnames to be checked. Since we
use a `struct strbuf` and the memory is cleared right after, make sure
that the string list duplicates all provided string.

Without this change, the user would simply be left with a repository
with '.lock' files which were created in the 'prepare' phase of the
transaction, as the 'commit' phase would simply abort and not do the
necessary cleanup.

9b62a67bdb refs/files: use correct error type when lock exists
When fetching references into a repository, if a lock for a particular
reference exists, then `lock_raw_ref()` throws:

    - REF_TRANSACTION_ERROR_CASE_CONFLICT: when there is a conflict
    because the transaction contains conflicting references while being
    on a case-insensitive filesystem.

    - REF_TRANSACTION_ERROR_GENERIC: for all other errors.

The latter causes the entire set of batched updates to fail, even in
case sensitive filessystems.

Instead, return a 'REF_TRANSACTION_ERROR_CREATE_EXISTS' error. This
allows batched updates to reject the individual update which conflicts
with the existing file, while updating the rest of the references.

3c07063231 refs/files: catch conflicts on case-insensitive file-systems
During the 'prepare' phase of a reference transaction in the files
backend, we create the lock files for references to be created. When
using batched updates on case-insensitive filesystems, the entire
batched updates would be aborted if there are conflicting names such as:

  refs/heads/Foo
  refs/heads/foo

This affects all commands which were migrated to use batched updates in
Git 2.51, including 'git-fetch(1)' and 'git-receive-pack(1)'. Before
that, reference updates would be applied serially with one transaction
used per update. When users fetched multiple references on
case-insensitive systems, subsequent references would simply overwrite
any earlier references. So when fetching:

  refs/heads/foo: 5f34ec0bfeac225b1c854340257a65b106f70ea6
  refs/heads/Foo: ec3053b0977e83d9b67fc32c4527a117953994f3
  refs/heads/sample: 2eefd1150e06d8fca1ddfa684dec016f36bf4e56

The user would simply end up with:

  refs/heads/foo: ec3053b0977e83d9b67fc32c4527a117953994f3
  refs/heads/sample: 2eefd1150e06d8fca1ddfa684dec016f36bf4e56

This is buggy behavior since the user is never informed about the
overrides performed and missing references. Nevertheless, the user is
left with a working repository with a subset of the references. Since
Git 2.51, in such situations fetches would simply fail without updating
any references. Which is also buggy behavior and worse off since the
user is left without any references.

The error is triggered in `lock_raw_ref()` where the files backend
attempts to create a lock file. When a lock file already exists the
function returns a 'REF_TRANSACTION_ERROR_GENERIC'. When this happens,
the entire batched updates, not individual operation, is aborted as if
it were in a transaction.

Change this to return 'REF_TRANSACTION_ERROR_CASE_CONFLICT' instead to
aid the batched update mechanism to simply reject such errors. The
change only affects batched updates since batched updates will reject
individual updates with non-generic errors. So specifically this would
only affect:

    1. git fetch
    2. git receive-pack
    3. git update-ref --batch-updates

This bubbles the error type up to `files_transaction_prepare()` which
tries to lock each reference update. So if the locking fails, we check
if the rejection type can be ignored, which is done by calling
`ref_transaction_maybe_set_rejected()`.

As the error type is now 'REF_TRANSACTION_ERROR_CASE_CONFLICT',
the specific reference update would simply be rejected, while other
updates in the transaction would continue to be applied. This allows
partial application of references in case-insensitive filesystems when
fetching colliding references.

While the earlier implementation allowed the last reference to be
applied overriding the initial references, this change would allow the
first reference to be applied while rejecting consequent collisions.
This should be an okay compromise since with the files backend, there is
no scenario possible where we would retain all colliding references.

Let's also be more proactive and notify users on case-insensitive
filesystems about such problems by providing a brief about the issue
while also recommending using the reftable backend, which doesn't have
the same issue.

66c11bd46a sparse-index: point users to new 'clean' action
In my experience, the most-common reason that the sparse index must
expand to a full one is because there is some leftover file in a tracked
directory that is now outside of the sparse-checkout. The new 'git
sparse-checkout clean' command will find and delete these directories,
so point users to it when they hit the sparse index expansion advice.

5b5a7f5ebd sparse-checkout: add --verbose option to 'clean'
The 'git sparse-checkout clean' subcommand is focused on directories,
deleting any tracked sparse directories to clean up the worktree and
make the sparse index feature work optimally.

However, this directory-focused approach can leave users wondering why
those directories exist at all. In my experience, these files are left
over due to ignore or exclude patterns, Windows file handles, or
possibly merge conflict resolutions.

Add a new '--verbose' option for users to see all the files that are
being deleted (with '--force') or would be deleted (with '--dry-run').

Based on usage, users may request further context on this list of files for
states such as tracked/untracked, unstaged/staged/conflicted, etc.

1588e836bb dir: add generic "walk all files" helper
There is sometimes a need to visit every file within a directory,
recursively. The main example is remove_dir_recursively(), though it has
some extra flags that make it want to iterate over paths in a custom
way. There is also the fill_directory() approach but that involves an
index and a pathspec.

This change adds a new for_each_file_in_dir() method that will be
helpful in the next change.

a8077c1913 sparse-checkout: match some 'clean' behavior
The 'git sparse-checkout clean' subcommand is somewhat similar to 'git
clean' in that it will delete files that should not be in the worktree.
The big difference is that it focuses on the directories that should not
be in the worktree due to cone-mode sparse-checkout. It also does not
discriminate in the kinds of files and focuses on deleting entire
directories.

However, there are some restrictions that would be good to bring over
from 'git clean', specifically how it refuses to do anything without the
'-f'/'--force' or '-n'/'--dry-run' arguments. The 'clean.requireForce'
config can be set to 'false' to imply '--force'.

Add this behavior to avoid accidental deletion of files that cannot be
recovered from Git.

2520efd3bc sparse-checkout: add basics of 'clean' command
When users change their sparse-checkout definitions to add new
directories and remove old ones, there may be a few reasons why
directories no longer in scope remain (ignored or excluded files still
exist, Windows handles are still open, etc.). When these files still
exist, the sparse index feature notices that a tracked, but sparse,
directory still exists on disk and thus the index expands. This causes a
performance hit _and_ the advice printed isn't very helpful. Using 'git
clean' isn't enough (generally '-dfx' may be needed) but also this may
not be sufficient.

Add a new subcommand to 'git sparse-checkout' that removes these
tracked-but-sparse directories.

The implementation details provide a clear definition of what is happening,
but it is difficult to describe this without including the internal
implementation details. The core operation converts the index to a sparse
index (in memory if not already on disk) and then deletes any directories in
the worktree that correspond with a sparse directory entry in that sparse
index.

In the most common case, this means that a file will be removed if it is
contained within a directory that is both tracked and outside of the
sparse-checkout definition. However, there can be exceptions depending on
the current state of the index:

 * If the worktree has a modification to a tracked, sparse file, then that
   file's parent directories will be expanded instead of represented as
   sparse directories. Siblings of those parent directories may be
   considered sparse.

 * If the user staged a sparse file with "git add --sparse", then that file
   loses the SKIP_WORKTREE bit until the sparse-checkout is reapplied. Until
   then, that file's parent directories are not represented as sparse
   directory entries and thus will not be removed. Siblings of those parent
   directories may be considered sparse. (There may be other reasons why
   the SKIP_WORKTREE bit was removed for a file and this impact on the
   sparse directories will apply to those as well.)

 * If the user has a merge conflict outside of the sparse-checkout
   definition, then those conflict entries prevent the parent directories
   from being represented as sparse directory entries and thus are not
   removed.

 * The cases above present reasons why certain _file conditions_ will impact
   which _directories_ are considered sparse. The list of tracked
   directories that are outside of the sparse-checkout definition but not
   represented as a sparse directory further reduces the list of files that
   will be removed.

For these complicated reasons, the documentation details a potential list of
files that will be "considered for removal" instead of defining the list
concretely. The special cases can be handled by resolving conflicts,
committing staged changes, and running 'git sparse-checkout reapply' to
update the SKIP_WORKTREE bits as expected by the sparse-checkout definition.

It is important to make clear that this operation will remove ignored and
excluded files which would normally be ignored even by 'git clean -f' unless
the '-x' or '-X' option is provided. This is the most extreme method for
doing this, but it works when the sparse-checkout is in cone mode and is
expected to rescope based on directories, not files.

The current implementation always deletes these sparse directories
without warning. This is unacceptable for a released version, but those
features will be added in changes coming immediately after this one.

Note that this will not remove an untracked directory (or any of its
contents) if its parent is a tracked directory within the sparse-checkout
definition. This is required to prevent removing data created by tools that
perform caching operations for editors or build tools.

Thus, 'git sparse-checkout clean' is both more aggressive and more careful
than 'git clean -fx':

 * It is more aggressive because it will remove _tracked_ files within the
   sparse directories.

 * It is less aggressive because it will leave _untracked_ files that are
   not contained in sparse directories.

These special cases will be handled more explicitly in a future change that
expands tests for the 'git sparse-checkout clean' command. We handle some of
the modified, staged, and committed states including some impact on 'git
status' after cleaning.

064468e899 sparse-checkout: remove use of the_repository
The logic for the 'git sparse-checkout' builtin uses the_repository all
over the place, despite some use of a repository struct in different
method parameters. Complete this removal of the_repository by using
'repo' when possible.

In one place, there was already a local variable 'r' that was set to
the_repository, so move that to a method parameter.

We cannot remove the USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE declaration as we are
still using global constants for the state of the sparse-checkout.

776d6fbd45 add-interactive: manually fall back color config to color.ui
Color options like color.interactive and color.diff should fall back to
the value of color.ui if they aren't set. In add-interactive, we check
the specific options (e.g., color.diff) via repo_config_get_value(),
which does not depend on the main command having loaded any color config
via the git_config() callback mechanism.

But then we call want_color() on the result; if our specific config is
unset then that function uses the value of git_use_color_default. That
variable is typically set from color.ui by the git_color_config()
callback, which is called by the main command in its own git_config()
callback function.

This works fine for "add -p", whose add_config() callback calls into
git_color_config(). But it doesn't work for other commands like
"checkout -p", which is otherwise unaware of color at all. People tend
not to notice because the default is "auto", and that's what they'd set
color.ui to as well. But something like:

  git -c color.ui=false checkout -p

should disable color, and it doesn't.

This regression goes back to 0527ccb1b5 (add -i: default to the built-in
implementation, 2021-11-30). In the perl version we got the color config
from "git config --get-colorbool", which did the full lookup for us.

The obvious fix is for git-checkout to add a call to git_color_config()
to its own config callback. But we'd have to do so for every command
with this problem, which is error-prone. Let's see if we can fix it more
centrally.

It is tempting to teach want_color() to look up the value of
repo_config_get_value("color.ui") itself. But I think that would have
disastrous consequences. Plumbing commands, especially older ones, avoid
porcelain config like "color.*" by simply not parsing it in their config
callbacks. Looking up the value of color.ui under the hood would
undermine that.

Instead, let's do that lookup in the add-interactive setup code. We're
already demand-loading other color config there, which is probably fine
(even in a plumbing command like "git reset", the interactive mode is
inherently porcelain-ish). That catches all commands that use the
interactive code, whether they were calling git_color_config()
themselves or not.

8c78b5c8bc add-interactive: respect color.diff for diff coloring
The old perl git-add--interactive.perl script used the color.diff config
option to decide whether to color diffs (and if not set, it fell back to
the value of color.ui via git-config's --get-colorbool option). When we
switched to the builtin version, this was lost: we respect only
color.ui. So for example:

  git -c color.diff=false add -p

would color the diff, even when it should not.

The culprit is this line in add-interactive.c's parse_diff():

  if (want_color_fd(1, -1))

That "-1" means "no config has been set", which causes it to fall back
to the color.ui setting. We should instead be passing the value of
color.diff. But the problem is that we never even parse that config
option!

Instead the builtin interactive code parses only the value of
color.interactive, which is used for prompts and other messages. One
could perhaps argue that this should cover interactive diff coloring,
too, but historically it did not. The perl script treated
color.interactive and color.diff separately. So we should grab the
values for both, keeping separate fields in our add_i_state variable,
rather than a single use_color field.

We also load individual color slots (e.g., color.interactive.prompt),
leaving them as the empty string when color is disabled. This happens
via the init_color() helper in add-interactive, which checks that
use_color field. Now that there are two such fields, we need to pass the
appropriate one for each color.

The colors are mostly easy to divide up; color.interactive.* follows
color.interactive, and color.diff.* follows color.diff. But the "reset"
color is tricky. It is used for both types of coloring, but the two can
be configured independently. So we introduce two separate reset colors,
and use each in the appropriate spot.

There are two new tests. The first enables interactive prompt colors but
disables color.diff. We should see a colored prompt but not a colored
diff, showing that we are now respecting color.diff (and not
color.interactive or color.ui).

The second does the opposite. We disable color.interactive but turn on
color.diff with a custom fragment color. When we split a hunk, the
interactive code has to re-color the hunk header, which lets us check
that we correctly loaded the color.diff.frag config based on color.diff,
not color.interactive.

89b4183efe stash: pass --no-color to diff plumbing child processes
After a partial stash, we may clear out the working tree by capturing
the output of diff-tree and piping it into git-apply (and likewise we
may use diff-index to restore the index). So we most definitely do not
want color diff output from that diff-tree process.  And it normally
would not produce any, since its stdout is not going to a tty, and the
default value of color.ui is "auto".

However, if GIT_PAGER_IN_USE is set in the environment, that overrides
the tty check, and we'll produce a colorized diff that chokes git-apply:

  $ echo y | GIT_PAGER_IN_USE=1 git stash -p
  [...]
  Saved working directory and index state WIP on main: 4f2e2bb foo
  error: No valid patches in input (allow with "--allow-empty")
  Cannot remove worktree changes

Setting this variable is a relatively silly thing to do, and not
something most users would run into. But we sometimes do it in our tests
to stimulate color. And it is a user-visible bug, so let's fix it rather
than work around it in the tests.

The root issue here is that diff-tree (and other diff plumbing) should
probably not ever produce color by default. It does so not by parsing
color.ui, but because of the baked-in "auto" default from 4c7f1819b3
(make color.ui default to 'auto', 2013-06-10). But changing that is
risky; we've had discussions back and forth on the topic over the years.
E.g.:

  https://lore.kernel.org/git/86D0A377-8AFD-460D-A90E-6327C6934DFC@gmail.com/.

So let's accept that as the status quo for now and protect ourselves by
passing --no-color to the child processes. This is the same thing we did
for add-interactive itself in 1c6ffb546b (add--interactive.perl: specify
--no-color explicitly, 2020-09-07).

88a2dc68c8 upload-pack: don't ACK non-commits repeatedly in protocol v2
When a client performs a fetch or clone they can optionally send "have"
lines to tell the server which objects they already have available
locally. These object IDs are stored by the server in an object array so
that it can remember any objects it doesn't have to include in the pack
sent to the client.

While there isn't any reason to do so, clients are free to send the same
"have" line repeatedly. git-upload-pack(1) already knows to handle this
well: every commit it has seen via a "have" line gets marked with the
`THEY_HAVE` flag, and if such a commit is seen repeatedly we know to not
process it another time. This also has the effect that we only store the
object ID once, only, in the `have_obj` array.

There is an edge case though: if the client sends an object ID that does
not refer to a commit we neither store nor check the `THEY_HAVE` flag.
This means that we repeatedly store the same object ID in our `have_obj`
array, with two consequences:

  - In protocol v2 we deduplicate ACKs for commits, but not for any
    other objects as we send ACKs for every object ID in the `have_obj`
    array.

  - The `have_obj` array can grow in size indefinitely with both
    protocols.

The potentially-more-serious issue is the second one, as we basically
have a way for an adversary to allocate arbitrarily large buffers now.
Ultimately, this doesn't seem to be all that serious though: on my
machine, the growth of that array is at around 4MB/s, and after roughly
five minutes I was only at 1GB RSS. So this is concerning, but only
mildly so.

Fix this bug by storing the `THEY_HAVE` flag independent of the object
type so that we don't store duplicate object IDs in `have_obj` anymore.

clear memory before returning 'result'. Since these jumps are more common
for error conditions, initialize 'result' to -1 and then only set it to 0

1f2bc6be1d midx-write: reenable signed comparison errors
Remove the remaining signed comparison warnings in midx-write.c so that
they can be enforced as errors in the future. After the previous change,
the remaining errors are due to iterator variables named 'i'.

The strategy here involves defining the variable within the for loop
syntax to make sure we use the appropriate bitness for the loop
sentinel. This matters in at least one method where the variable was
compared to uint32_t in some loops and size_t in others.

While adjusting these loops, there were some where the loop boundary was
checking against a uint32_t value _plus one_. These were replaced with
non-strict comparisons, but also the value is checked to not be
UINT32_MAX. Since the value is the number of incremental multi-pack-
indexes, this is not a meaningful restriction. The new die() is about
defensive programming more than it being realistically possible.

68383ac9d4 midx-write: use uint32_t for preferred_pack_idx
midx-write.c has the DISABLE_SIGN_COMPARE_WARNINGS macro defined for a
few reasons, but the biggest one is the use of a signed
preferred_pack_idx member inside the write_midx_context struct. The code
currently uses -1 to indicate an unset preferred pack but pack int ids
are normally handled as uint32_t. There are also a few loops that search
for the preferred pack by name and those iterators will need updates to
uint32_t in the next change.

For now, replace the use of -1 with a 'NO_PREFERRED_PACK' macro and an
equality check. The macro stores the max value of a uint32_t, so we
cannot store a preferred pack that appears last in a list of 2^32 total
packs, but that's expected to be unreasonable already. Furthermore, with
this change we end up extending the range from 2^31 possible packs to
2^32-1.

There are some careful things to worry about with initializing the
preferred pack in the struct and using that value when searching for a
preferred pack that was already incorrect but accidentally working when
the index was initialized to zero.

The incremental mode of writing a multi-pack-index has a few extra
conditions that could lead to failure, but these are currently
short-ciruiting with 'return -1' instead of setting the method's

Replace these returns with gotos to avoid memory issues when exiting

Unfortunately, these error conditions are difficult to reproduce with
