Description

This PR resolves silent failures and enhances observability when listing repository branches and playbooks (e.g. GitLab, GitHub, or self-hosted Git repositories).

Problem

Previously:

  1. When repository operations (like git ls-remote or clone) failed during web API requests, CmdGitClient ran with task_logger.NopLogger and discarded stderr, producing generic exit status 128 errors without explanation.
  2. Generic errors returned empty 400 Bad Request response bodies, leaving frontend UI dropdowns silently empty.
  3. If Git command output contained HTTP basic authentication passwords or personal access tokens in URLs, there was a risk of exposing credentials in logs or error messages.
  4. Scratch directory cache keys for branch browsing used a truncated 4-byte hash (branchHash[:4]), which introduced potential 32-bit directory collisions across branches in the same repository.

Key Changes

  1. Credential Sanitization (pkg/git/sanitize.go):

    • Implemented SanitizeGitOutput(output string) to regex-redact HTTP basic passwords and tokens (https://user:***@host and https://***@host) from all Git stderr/stdout streams and error messages before logging or surfacing to users.
    • Added unit test suite covering empty inputs, SSH URLs, Basic Auth, PAT tokens, and multiline error logs.
  2. Rich Git Error Extraction (db_lib/CmdGitClient.go):

    • Captured stderr in run() and output() when logger is NopLogger or nil.
    • Formatted error messages with the failing Git subcommand and sanitized stderr output (e.g. git ls-remote failed: fatal: Authentication failed...) instead of bare exit status 128.
    • Added unit tests in db_lib/CmdGitClient_test.go.
  3. Structured Logging & User-Visible API Errors (api/projects/repository.go):

    • Added structured Logrus error logging with repository ID and branch context in GetRepositoryBranches and GetRepositoryPlaybooks.
    • Wrapped errors in common_errors.NewUserError(err) so helpers.WriteError returns actionable 400 Bad Request JSON error responses ({"error": "<sanitized error>"}).
    • Updated scratch browsing directory naming to use the full SHA-1 branch digest (branchHash) to prevent directory collisions.
  4. Frontend Error Toast Notifications (web/src/components/TemplateForm.vue):

    • Added error snackbar toast notifications via EventBus.$emit('i-snackbar', ...) in loadBranches() and loadPlaybooks() so users receive immediate feedback when repository connectivity fails.
    • Guarded against aborted/cancelled requests (axios.isCancel / ctrl.signal.aborted) to prevent spurious notifications during rapid branch switching.

Verification

  • Unit Tests: go test -v ./pkg/git/... ./db_lib/... ./api/projects/... (All tests pass).
  • Code Reviews: Verified with automated Gravity-Rabbit & official CodeRabbit CLI (0 findings / 100% clean).

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved error messages when loading repository branches and playbooks, with errors shown directly on affected fields.
    • Git errors now include useful diagnostic details while protecting credentials, tokens, and passwords.
    • Prevented canceled or aborted requests from showing unnecessary error notifications.
    • Improved repository URL handling, including secure credential removal and safer credential encoding.
    • Added consistent error reporting when repository operations fail.
    • Protected sensitive Git information in displayed, stored, and streamed logs.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Git output is sanitized in errors and logs. Git failures use user-visible summaries. Repository handlers log context and return user errors. The template form displays loading failures inline and cancels active requests.

Changes

Git Error Flow

Layer / File(s) Summary
Sanitize Git credentials
pkg/git/sanitize.go, pkg/git/sanitize_test.go
Adds credential and query-parameter redaction and formats common Git failures into sanitized summaries.
Capture and format Git errors
db_lib/CmdGitClient.go, db_lib/CmdGitClient_test.go
Git commands return descriptive user-visible errors. Clone and pull operations use checkout naming and configured submodule parallelism.
Resolve repository URLs safely
db/Repository.go, db/Repository_test.go
URL parsing controls credential injection and removal. Tests cover encoded credentials, HTTP URLs, and secure mode.
Propagate repository loading errors
api/projects/repository.go, web/src/components/TemplateForm.vue
Repository handlers log structured failures. TemplateForm tracks cancellation and displays branch and playbook errors inline.
Sanitize task and job logs
services/runners/running_job.go, services/tasks/TaskRunner_logging.go
Sanitizes Git output before storage, WebSocket delivery, and listener notification.
Preserve task argument test validation
services/tasks/TaskRunner_test.go
Task playbook argument tests explicitly check errors and expected strings.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 0d263

This change can leak repository credentials in some Git errors, break password-authenticated HTTP repositories, and return playbooks from the wrong branch when scratch paths collide. These issues should be resolved before merge.

Preserve the original command error when stderr is present.

CmdGitClient.run receives an *exec.ExitError from cmd.Run, but the non-empty-stderr branch replaces it with a string-only error. Callers cannot use errors.As to inspect the exit error or exit code. Wrap err with %w while retaining the sanitized stderr detail.

Key the playbook scratch directory with the full branch digest. If two valid branches share the current six-byte digest prefix, GetRepositoryPlaybooks maps both requests to the same TmpDirName. Pull then operates on the existing branch’s checkout without switching branches, so FindPlaybooks can return the wrong files or concurrent requests can modify the shared checkout. Use branchHash[:] instead of branchHash[:6].

Reject password-authenticated plain-HTTP repositories during validation.

Repository.Validate permits http:// URLs with AccessKeyLoginPassword, but GetGitURL(false) intentionally omits those credentials. The default CmdGitClient can then fail clone, remote queries, and later pulls with an authentication error that does not identify the omission. Keep credentials out of plain HTTP, but return a clear validation error for this unsupported combination. Do not change the separate GoGitClient http.BasicAuth path.

🔒 Security & Privacy | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Broaden the host terminator so credentials are always redacted.

Group 3 requires the host to be followed by /, ?, #, whitespace, a quote, <, >, or end of string. If the host is followed by any other character, the match fails and the credentials remain in the output. Example input: remote: retrying (https://u:[email protected]), aborting keeps u:p in the sanitized text.

Group 3 is re-emitted unchanged in every replacement branch, so a wider terminator class is safe. Go's RE2 engine does not support lookahead, so the terminator must stay a consuming class.

🛡️ Proposed regex fix
-	urlUserInfoRegex = regexp.MustCompile(`(https?://)([^\s'"<>]+)@([a-zA-Z0-9.-]+(?::[0-9]+)?(?:[/?#\s'"<>]|$))`)
+	urlUserInfoRegex = regexp.MustCompile(`(https?://)([^\s'"<>]+)@([a-zA-Z0-9.-]+(?::[0-9]+)?(?:[^a-zA-Z0-9.:_-]|$))`)

In `@pkg/git/sanitize.go` at line 10, Broaden the host terminator character class
in urlUserInfoRegex so credentials are redacted when the host is followed by any
non-host character, while preserving the existing host capture and
consuming-terminator behavior required by Go’s RE2 engine. Keep the replacement
branches’ unchanged group-3 re-emission intact.
