This changes `return None` to `return` where it appears infunctions that are "conceptually void," i.e. cases where a functionalways returns None, its purpose is never to provide a return valueto the caller, and it would be a bug (or at least confusing style)to use the return value or have the call as a subexpression.This is already the prevailing style, so this is a consistencyimprovement, as well as improving clarity by avoiding giving theimpression that "None" is significant in those cases.Of course, functions that sometimes return values other than Nonedo not have "return None" replaced with a bare "return" statement.Those are left alone (when they return None, it means something).For the most part this is straightforward, but:- The handle_stderr local function in IndexFile.checkout is also slightly further refactored to better express what the early return is doing.- The "None" operand is removed as usual in GitConfigParser.read, even though a superclass has a same-named method with a return type that is not None. Usually when this happens, the superclass method returns something like Optional[Something], and it is a case of return type covariance, in which case the None operands should still be written. Here, however, the overriding method does not intend to be an override: it has an incompatible signature and cannot be called as if it were the superclass method, nor is its return type compatible.- The "None" operand is *retained* in git.cmd.handle_process_output even though the return type is annotated as None, because the function also returns the expression `finalizer(process)`. The argument `finalizer` is itself annotated to return None, but it looks like the intent may be to play along with the strange case that `finalizer` returns a non-None value, and forward it.

What a wonderful improvement, with a rationale I can absolutely get behind.
I wonder if-> None
annotations should also be removed as it's probably clearer what the intention is if there is no return value at all, especially given the now 'bare'return
statements.

Although sometimes found unintuitive, the reutrn type of a class's__init__ method is best annotated as None, as in other functionsthat return implicitly or by operand-less return statements.Note that this is only a minor improvement, effectively just astyle fix, because mypy treats __init__ specially and, *when atleast one parameter is annotated*, its return type is implicitlyNone rather than implicitly Any like other functions. All the__init__ methods modified here did already have one or moreannotated parameters.However, having __init__ methods without the return type makes iteasier to introduce a bug where an __init__ method with noparameters besides self -- which itself should almost always beunannotated and is properly inferred -- is written and the returnannotation needed to get mypy to regard it as statically typed,so it checks it at all, is omitted. (It is also inelegant whenone considers the meaning of __init__ and the distinction betweenit and __new__.)This commit does not add any return type annotations to functionsin the test suite, since the test suite doesn't currently usestatic typing.Further reading:-https://peps.python.org/pep-0484/#the-meaning-of-annotations-python/mypy#604-gitpython-developers#1755 (comment)

OnWindows, GitPython uses an untrusted search path if it uses a shell torun `git`, as well as when it runs `bash.exe` to interpret hooks. Ifeither of those features are used on Windows, a malicious `git.exe` or`bash.exe` may be run from an untrusted repository.### DetailsAlthough GitPython often avoids executing programs found in an untrustedsearch path since 3.1.33, two situations remain where this still occurs.Either can allow arbitrary code execution under some circumstances.#### When a shell is usedGitPython can be told to run `git` commands through a shell rather thanas direct subprocesses, by passing `shell=True` to any method thataccepts it, or by both setting `Git.USE_SHELL = True` and not passing`shell=False`. Then the Windows `cmd.exe` shell process performs thepath search, and GitPython does not prevent that shell from finding andrunning `git` in the current directory.When GitPython runs `git` directly rather than through a shell, theGitPython process performs the path search, and currently omits thecurrent directory by setting `NoDefaultCurrentDirectoryInExePath` in itsown environment during the `Popen` call. Although the `cmd.exe` shellwill honor this environment variable when present, GitPython does notcurrently pass it into the shell subprocess's environment.Furthermore, because GitPython sets the subprocess CWD to the root of arepository's working tree, using a shell will run a malicious `git.exe`in an untrusted repository even if GitPython itself is run from atrusted location.This also applies if `Git.execute` is called directly with `shell=True`(or after `Git.USE_SHELL = True`) to run any command.#### When hook scripts are runOn Windows, GitPython uses `bash.exe` to run hooks that appear to bescripts. However, unlike when running `git`, no steps are taken to avoidfinding and running `bash.exe` in the current directory.This allows the author of an untrusted fork or branch to cause amalicious `bash.exe` to be run in some otherwise safe workflows. Anexample of such a scenario is if the user installs a trusted hook whileon a trusted branch, then switches to an untrusted feature branch(possibly from a fork) to review proposed changes. If the untrustedfeature branch contains a malicious `bash.exe` and the user's currentworking directory is the working tree, and the user performs an actionthat runs the hook, then although the hook itself is uncorrupted, itruns with the malicious `bash.exe`.Note that, while `bash.exe` is a shell, this is a separate scenario fromwhen `git` is run using the unrelated Windows `cmd.exe` shell.### PoCOn Windows, create a `git.exe` file in a repository. Then create a`Repo` object, and call any method through it (directly or indirectly)that supports the `shell` keyword argument with `shell=True`:```powershellmkdir testrepogit init testrepocp ... testrepo git.exe # Replace "..." with any executable of choice.python -c "import git; print(git.Repo('testrepo').git.version(shell=True))"```The `git.exe` executable in the repository directory will be run.Or use no `Repo` object, but do it from the location with the `git.exe`:```powershellcd testrepopython -c "import git; print(git.Git().version(shell=True))"```The `git.exe` executable in the current directory will be run.For the scenario with hooks, install a hook in a repository, create a`bash.exe` file in the current directory, and perform an operation thatcauses GitPython to attempt to run the hook:```powershellmkdir testrepocd testrepogit initmv .git/hooks/pre-commit.sample .git/hooks/pre-commitcp ... bash.exe # Replace "..." with any executable of choice.echo "Some text" >file.txtgit add file.txtpython -c "import git; git.Repo().index.commit('Some message')"```The `bash.exe` executable in the current directory will be run.### ImpactThe greatest impact is probably in applications that set `Git.USE_SHELL= True` for historical reasons. (Undesired console windows had, in thepast, been created in some kinds of applications, when it was not used.)Such an application may be vulnerable to arbitrary code execution from amalicious repository, even with no other exacerbating conditions. Thisis to say that, if a shell is used to run `git`, the full effect ofCVE-2023-40590 is still present. Furthermore, as noted above, runningthe application itself from a trusted directory is not a sufficientmitigation.An application that does not direct GitPython to use a shell to run`git` subprocesses thus avoids most of the risk. However, there is nosuch straightforward way to prevent GitPython from running `bash.exe` tointerpret hooks. So while the conditions needed for that to be exploitedare more involved, it may be harder to mitigate decisively prior topatching.### Possible solutionsA straightforward approach would be to address each bug directly:- When a shell is used, pass `NoDefaultCurrentDirectoryInExePath` intothe subprocess environment, because in that scenario the subprocess isthe `cmd.exe` shell that itself performs the path search.- Set `NoDefaultCurrentDirectoryInExePath` in the GitPython processenvironment during the `Popen` call made to run hooks with a `bash.exe`subprocess.These need only be done on Windows.---### Release Notes<details><summary>gitpython-developers/GitPython (GitPython)</summary>###[`v3.1.41`](https://togithub.com/gitpython-developers/GitPython/releases/tag/3.1.41):- fix Windows

return None
toreturn
where it appears in functions that are "conceptually void," i.e. cases where a function always returnsNone
, its purpose is never to provide a return value to the caller, and it would be a bug (or at least confusing style) to use the return value or have the call as a subexpression.This is already the prevailing style, so this is a consistency improvement, as well as improving clarity by avoiding giving the impression that "None" is significant in those cases.
Of course, functions that sometimes return values other than
None
do not havereturn None
replaced with a barereturn
statement. Those are left alone (when they returnNone
, it means something).For the most part this is straightforward, but:
The
handle_stderr
local function inIndexFile.checkout
is also slightly further refactored to better express what the early return is doing.Because it is a local function, the diff in the "Files Changed" tab of this pull request makes it look like it is in the
checkout
method, where such a change would not be correct. Instead, that is the enclosing scope, and it is in a nested function where the change does make sense.The
None
operand is removed as usual inGitConfigParser.read
, even though a superclass has a same-named method with a return type that is notNone
. Usually when this happens, the superclass method returns something likeOptional[Something]
, and it is a case of return-type covariance, in which case theNone
operands should still be written. Here, however, the overriding method does not intend to be an override: it has an incompatible signature and cannot be called as if it were the superclass method, nor is its return type compatible.The
None
operand isretained in the code at the very end ofgit.cmd.handle_process_output
, even though the return type is annotated as None, because the function also returns the expressionfinalizer(process)
. The argumentfinalizer
is itself annotated to returnNone
, but it looks like the intent may be to play along with the strange case thatfinalizer
returns a non-None
value, and forward it:GitPython/git/cmd.py
Lines 207 to 210 inb8ee9be
So changing
return None
toreturn
doesn't make sense there. But depending on intent, maybe it should be just:I noticed after#1754, which made changes to
Git.AutoInterrupt._terminate
, was approved, that I had should have fixed how it usedreturn
in some places andreturn None
in others. So I looked forreturn None
that should bereturn
throughout the project to see what else to fix along with it, resulting in this PR.
