Add a description for these two sections in

As a side effect, tab completion can successfully complete the

The previous commit demonstrates a bug where a commit-graph using
generation v2 could enter a state where one of the GDA2 values has its
most-significant bit set (indicating that its value should be read from
the extended offset table in the GDO2 chunk) without having a GDO2 chunk
to read from.
This results in the following error message being displayed to the
caller:
fatal: commit-graph requires overflow generation data but has none
This bug arises in the following scenario:
- We decide to write a commit-graph using generation number v2, and
decide (correctly) that no GDO2 chunk is necessary (e.g., because
all of the commiter date offsets are no larger than 2^31-1).
- The v2 generation numbers are stored in the `->generation` member of
the commit slab holding `struct commit_graph_data`'s.
- Later on, `load_commit_graph_info()` is called, overwriting the
v2 generation data in the aforementioned slab with any existing v1
generation data.
Then, when the commit-graph code goes to write the GDA2 chunk via
`write_graph_chunk_generation_data()`, we use the overwritten generation
v1 data in a place where we expect to use a v2 generation number:
offset = commit_graph_data_at(c)->generation - c->date;
...because `commit_graph_data_at(c)->generation` used to hold the v2
generation data, but it was overwritten to contain the v1 generation
number via `load_commit_graph_info()`.
If the `offset` computation above overflows the v2 generation number
max, then `write_graph_chunk_generation_data()` will update its count of
large offsets and write the marker accordingly:
if (offset > GENERATION_NUMBER_V2_OFFSET_MAX) {
offset = CORRECTED_COMMIT_DATE_OFFSET_OVERFLOW | num_generation_data_overflows;
num_generation_data_overflows++;
}
and reads will look for the GDO2 chunk containing the overflowing v2
generation number, *after* the commit-graph code decided that no such
chunk was necessary.
The main problem is that the slab containing `struct commit_graph_data`
has a dual purpose. It is used to hold data that we are about to write
to disk while generating a commit-graph, as well as hold data that was
read from an existing commit-graph.
When the two mix, namely when the result of reading the commit-graph has
a side-effect that mixes poorly with an in-progress commit-graph write,
we end up with corrupt data.
A complete fix might be to introduce a new slab that is used exclusively
for writing, and gate access between the two slabs based on context
provided by the caller (e.g., whether this computation is part of a
"read" or "write" operation).
But a more minimal fix addresses the only known path which overwrites
the slab data, which is `compute_bloom_filters()` ->
`get_or_compute_bloom_filter()` -> `load_commit_graph_info()` ->
`fill_commit_graph_info()` by avoiding the last call which clobbers the
data altogether.
This path only needs to learn the graph position of a given commit so
that it can be used in `load_bloom_filter_from_graph()`. By replacing
the last steps of the above with one that records the graph position
into a temporary variable which is then used to load the existing Bloom
data, we eliminate the clobbering, removing the corruption.

Low-level callers in systems that are adjacent to the commit-graph (like
the changed-path Bloom filter code) could benefit from being able to
call a function like `parse_commit_in_graph()` without modifying the
corresponding commit slab data.
This is useful in contexts where that slab data is being used to prepare
for an upcoming commit-graph write, where Git must be careful to avoid
clobbering any of that data during a read operation.
Introduce a low-level variant of `parse_commit_in_graph()` which returns
the graph position of a given commit only, without modifying any of the

When upgrading a commit-graph using generation v1 to one using
generation v2, it is possible to force Git into a corrupt state where it
(incorrectly) believes that a GDO2 chunk is necessary, *after* deciding
not to write one.
This makes subsequent reads using the commit-graph produce the following
error message:
fatal: commit-graph requires overflow generation data but has none
Demonstrate this bug by increasing our test coverage to include a
minimal example of upgrading a commit-graph from generation v1 to v2.
The only notable components of this test are:
- The committer date of the commit is chosen carefully so that the
offset underflows when computed using a v1 generation number, but
would not overflow when using v2 generation numbers.
- The upgrade to generation number v2 must read in the v1 generation
numbers, which we can do by passing `--changed-paths`, which will
force the commit-graph internals to call `fill_commit_graph_info()`.
A future patch will squash this bug.

When sorting the output of `git shortlog` by count, a list of authors in
alphabetical order is then sorted by contribution count. Obviously, the
idea is to maintain the alphabetical order for items with identical
contribution count.
At the moment, this job is performed by `qsort()`. As that function is
not guaranteed to implement a stable sort algorithm, this can lead to
inconsistent and/or surprising behavior: items with identical
contribution count could lose their alphabetical sub-order.
The `qsort()` in MS Visual C's runtime does _not_ implement a stable
sort algorithm, and under certain circumstances this even causes a test
failure in t4201.21 "shortlog can match multiple groups", where two
authors both are listed with 2 contributions, and are listed in inverse
alphabetical order.
Let's instead use the stable sort provided by `git_stable_qsort()` to
avoid this inconsistency.

In 0041797449 (vimdiff: new implementation with layout support,
2022-03-30), we introduced a completely new implementation of the
`vimdiff` backend for `git mergetool`.
In this implementation, we no longer call `vim` directly but we
accumulate in the variable `FINAL_CMD` an arbitrary number of commands
for `vim` to execute, which necessitates the use of `eval` to split the
commands properly into multiple command-line arguments.
That same `eval` command also needs to pass the paths to `vim`, and
while it looks as if they are quoted correctly, that quoting only
reaches the `eval` instruction and is lost after that, therefore paths
that contain whitespace characters (or other characters that are
interpreted by the POSIX shell) are handled incorrectly.
This is a simple reproducer:
git init -b main bam-merge-fail
cd bam-merge-fail
echo a>"a file.txt"
git add "a file.txt"
git commit -m "added 'a file.txt'"
echo b>"a file.txt"
git add "a file.txt"
git commit -m "diverged b 'a file.txt'"
git checkout -b c HEAD~
echo c>"a file.txt"
git add "a file.txt"
git commit -m "diverged c 'a file.txt'"
git checkout main
git merge c
git mergetool --tool=vimdiff
With Git v2.37.0/v2.37.1, this will open 7 buffers, not four, and not
display the correct contents at all.
To fix this, let's not expand the variables containing the path
parameters before passing them to the `eval` command, but let that
command expand the variables instead.

At the end of `git checkout <pathspec>`, we get a message informing how
many entries were updated in the working tree. However, this number can
be inaccurate for two reasons:
1) Delayed entries currently get counted twice.
2) Failed entries are included in the count.
The first problem happens because the counter is first incremented
before inserting the entry in the delayed checkout queue, and once again
when finish_delayed_checkout() calls checkout_entry(). And the second
happens because the counter is incremented too early in
checkout_entry(), before the entry was in fact checked out. Fix that by
moving the count increment further down in the call stack and removing
the duplicate increment on delayed entries. Note that we have to keep
a per-entry reference for the counter (both on parallel checkout and
delayed checkout) because not all entries are always accumulated at the
same counter. See checkout_worktree(), at builtin/checkout.c for an
example.

After checkout, git usually reports how many entries were updated at
that operation. However, because we count the entries too soon during
the checkout process, we may actually include entries that do not get
properly checked out in the end. This can lead to an inaccurate final
report if the user expects it to show only the *successful* updates.
This will be fixed in the next commit, but for now let's document it
with a test that cover all checkout modes.
Note that `test_checkout_workers` have to be slightly adjusted in order
to use the construct `test_checkout_workers ... test_must_fail git
checkout`. The function runs the command given to it with an assignment
prefix to set the GIT_TRACE2 variable. However, this this assignment has
an undefined behavior when the command is a shell function (like
`test_must_fail`). As POSIX specifies:
If the command name is a function that is not a standard utility
implemented as a function, variable assignments shall affect the
current execution environment during the execution of the function. It
is unspecified:
- Whether or not the variable assignments persist after the
completion of the function
- Whether or not the variables gain the export attribute during the
execution of the function
Thus, in order to make sure the GIT_TRACE2 value gets visible to the git
command executed by `test_must_fail`, export the variable and run git in
a subshell.

Commit 0139c58ab9 (revisions API users: add "goto cleanup" for
release_revisions(), 2022-04-13) converted an early return in
cmd_diff_files() into a goto. But it put the cleanup label too early: if
read_cache_preload() returns an error, we'll set result to "-1", but
then jump to calling run_diff_files(), overwriting our result.
We should jump past the call to run_diff_files(). Likewise, we should go
past diff_result_code(), which is expecting to see a code from an actual
diff, not a negative error code.
In practice, I suspect this bug cannot actually be triggered, because
read_cache_preload() does not seem to ever return an error. Its return
value (eventually) comes from do_read_index(), which gives the number of
cache entries found, and calls die() on error. Still, it makes sense to
fix the inadvertent change from 0139c58ab9 first, and we can look into
the overall error handling of read_cache() separately (which is present

Prior to 4f37d45706 (clone: respect remote unborn HEAD, 2021-02-05),
creation of the local HEAD was always done in update_head(). That commit
added code to handle an unborn head in an empty repository, and just did
all symref creation and config setup there.
This makes the code flow a little bit confusing, especially as new
corner cases have been covered (like the previous commit to match our
default branch name to a non-HEAD remote branch).
Let's move the creation of the unborn symref into update_head(). This
matches the other HEAD-creation cases, and now the logic is consistently
separated: the main cmd_clone() function only examines the situation and
sets variables based on what it finds, and update_head() actually
performs the update.

Usually clone tries to use the same local HEAD as the remote (unless the
user has given --branch explicitly). Even if the remote HEAD is detached
or unborn, we can detect those situations with modern versions of Git.
If the remote is too old to support the "unborn" extension (or it has
been disabled via config), then we can't know the name of the remote's
unborn HEAD, and we fall back whatever the local default branch name is
configured to be.
But that leads to one weird corner case. It's rare because it needs a
number of factors:
- the remote has an unborn HEAD
- the remote is too old to support "unborn", or has disabled it
- the remote has another branch "foo"
- the local default branch name is "foo"
In that case you end up with a local clone on an unborn "foo" branch,
disconnected completely from the remote's "foo". This is rare in
practice, but the result is quite confusing.
When choosing "foo", we can double check whether the remote has such a
name, and if so, start our local "foo" at the same spot, rather than
making it unborn.
Note that this causes a test failure in t5605, which is cloning from a
bundle that doesn't contain HEAD (so it behaves like a remote that
doesn't support "unborn"), but has a single "main" branch. That test
expects that we end up in the weird "unborn main" case, where we don't
actually check out the remote branch of the same name. Even though we
have to update the test, this seems like an argument in favor of this
patch: checking out main is what I'd expect from such a bundle.
So this patch updates the test for the new behavior and adds an adjacent
one that checks what the original was going for: if there's no HEAD and
the bundle _doesn't_ have a branch that matches our local default name,
then we end up with nothing checked out.

Unless "--branch" was given, clone generally tries to match the local
HEAD to the remote one. For most repositories, this is easy: the remote
tells us which branch HEAD was pointing to, and we call our local
checkout() function on that branch.
When cloning an empty repository, it's a little more tricky: we have
special code that checks the transport's "unborn" extension, or falls back
to our local idea of what the default branch should be. In either case,
we point the new HEAD to that, and set up the branch.* config.
But that leaves one case unhandled: when the remote repository _isn't_
empty, but its HEAD is unborn. The checkout() function is smart enough
to realize we didn't fetch the remote HEAD and it bails with a warning.
But we'll have ignored any information the remote gave us via the unborn
extension. This leads to nonsense outcomes:
- If the remote has its HEAD pointing to an unborn "foo" and contains
another branch "bar", cloning will get branch "bar" but leave the
local HEAD pointing at "master" (or whatever our local default is),
which is useless. The project does not use "master" as a branch.
- Worse, if the other branch "bar" is instead called "master" (but
again, the remote HEAD is not pointing to it), then we end up with a
local unborn branch "master", which is not connected to the remote
"master" (it shares no history, and there's no branch.* config).
Instead, we should try to use the remote's HEAD, even if its unborn, to
be consistent with the other cases.
The reason this case was missed is that cmd_clone() handles empty and
non-empty repositories on two different sides of a conditional:
if (we have any refs) {
fetch refs;
check for --branch;
otherwise, try to point our head at remote head;
otherwise, our head is NULL;
} else {
check for --branch;
otherwise, try to use "unborn" extension;
otherwise, fall back to our default name name;
}
So the smallest change would be to repeat the "unborn" logic at the end
of the first block. But we can note some other overlaps and
inconsistencies:
- both sides have to handle --branch (though note that it's always an
error for the empty repo case, since an empty repo by definition
does not have a matching branch)
- the fall back to the default name is much more explicit in the
empty-repo case. The non-empty case eventually ends up bailing
from checkout() with a warning, which produces a similar result, but
fails to set up the branch config we do in the empty case.
So let's pull the HEAD setup out of this conditional entirely. This
de-duplicates some of the code and the result is easy to follow, because
helper functions like find_ref_by_name() do the right thing even in the
empty-repo case (i.e., by returning NULL).
There are two subtleties:
- for a remote with a detached HEAD, it will advertise an oid for HEAD
(which we store in our "remote_head" variable), but we won't find a
matching refname (so our "remote_head_points_at" is NULL). In this
case we make a local detached HEAD to match. Right now this happens
implicitly by reaching update_head() with a non-NULL remote_head
(since we skip all of the unborn-fallback). We'll now need to
account for it explicitly before doing the fallback.
- for an empty repo, we issue a warning to the user that they've
cloned an empty repo. The text of that warning doesn't make sense
for a non-empty repo with an unborn HEAD, so we'll have to
differentiate the two cases there. We could just use different text,
but instead let's allow the code to continue down to checkout(),
which will issue an appropriate warning, like:
remote HEAD refers to nonexistent ref, unable to checkout
Continuing down to checkout() will make it easier to do more fixes
on top (see below).
Note that this patch fixes the case where the other side reports an
unborn head to us using the protocol extension. It _doesn't_ fix the
case where the other side doesn't tell us, we locally guess "master",
and the other side happens to have a "master" which its HEAD doesn't
point. But it doesn't make anything worse there, and it should actually
make it easier to fix that problem on top.

There is code in both merge-recursive and merge-ort for avoiding doubly
transitive renames (i.e. one side renames directory A/ -> B/, and the
other side renames directory B/ -> C/), because this combination would
otherwise make a mess for new files added to A/ on the first side and
wondering which directory they end up in -- especially if there were
even more renames such as the first side renaming C/ -> D/. In such
cases, it just turns "off" directory rename detection for the higher
order transitive cases.
The testcases added in t6423 a couple commits ago are slightly different
but similar in principle. They involve a similar case of paired
renaming but instead of A/ -> B/ and B/ -> C/, the second side renames
a leading directory of B/ to C/. And both sides add a new file
somewhere under the directory that the other side will rename. While
the new files added start within different directories and thus could
logically end up within different directories, it is weird for a file
on one side to end up where the other one started and not move along
with it. So, let's just turn off directory rename detection in this
case as well.
Another way to look at this is that if the source name involved in a
directory rename on one side is the target name of a directory rename
operation for a file from the other side, then we avoid the doubly
transitive rename. (More concretely, if a directory rename on side D
wants to rename a file on side E from OLD_NAME -> NEW_NAME, and side D
already had a file named NEW_NAME, and a directory rename on side E
wants to rename side D's NEW_NAME -> NEWER_NAME, then we turn off the
directory rename detection for NEW_NAME to prevent the
NEW_NAME -> NEWER_NAME rename, and instead end up with an add/add
conflict on NEW_NAME.)

These testcases are somehow a little different than Glen's original

correctly record a removed file to the index, which is an old
regression but has become widely known because the C version
has become the default in the latest release.

This test had a line reading
! test_file_is_empty actual
which was meant to be
! test_must_be_empty actual
The test worked despite the error, because even though
test_file_is_empty is a non-existent function, the '!' negated the
return value and made it pass. It'd be better to avoid the negation,
so something like
test_file_not_empty actual
would be better, but perhaps it makes even more sense to specify the
number of lines of expected output to make the test a bit tighter.

The commit-graph is used to opportunistically optimize accesses to
certain pieces of information on commit objects, and
lookup_commit_in_graph() tries to say "no" when the requested commit
does not locally exist by returning NULL, in which case the caller
can ask for (which may result in on-demand fetching from a promisor
remote) and parse the commit object itself.
However, it uses a wrong helper, repo_has_object_file(), to do so.
This helper not only checks if an object is mmediately available in
the local object store, but also tries to fetch from a promisor remote.
But the fetch machinery calls lookup_commit_in_graph(), thus causing an
infinite loop.
We should make lookup_commit_in_graph() expect that a commit given to it
can be legitimately missing from the local object store, by using the
has_object_file() helper instead.

The "test_when_finished" cleanup phase added in 4179b4897f (config:
allow overriding of global and system configuration, 2021-04-19) has
never worked as intended, firstly the ".config/git" is a directory, so
we'd need the "-r" flag, but more importantly the $HOME variable
wasn't properly quoted.
We'd thus end up trying to remove the "trash" part of "trash
directory", which wouldn't fail with "-f", since "rm -f" won't fail on
non-existing files.
It's possible that this would have caused an actual failure if someone
had a $HOME with a space character in it, such that our "rm -f" would
fail to remove an existing directory, but in practice that probably
never happened.
Let's fix both the quoting issue, and the other issue cleanup issue in
4179b4897f, which is that we were attempting to clean up
~/.config/git, but weren't cleaing up ~/.gitconfig.

While inspecting the 'git rebase' documentation, I noticed that it is
inconsistent with how it uses back-ticks (or other punctuation) for
identifying Git commands, command-line arguments, or values for those
arguments.
Sometimes, an argument (like '--interactive') would appear without any
punctuation, causing the argument to not have any special formatting.
Other times, arguments or 'git rebase' itself would have single-quotes
giving a bold look (in the HTML documentation at least).
By consistently using back-ticks, these types of strings appear in a
monospace font with special highlighting to appear more clearly as text
that exists in a command-line invocation of a Git command.
This rather-large diff is the result of scanning git-rebase.txt and
adding back-ticks as appropriate. Some are adding back-ticks where there
was no punctuation. Others are replacing single quotes.
There are also a few minor cleanups in the process, including those
found by reviewers.

The size and padding of `struct object_entry` is an important factor in
determining the memory usage of `pack-objects`. For this reason,
3b13a5f263 (pack-objects: reorder members to shrink struct object_entry,
2018-04-14) added a comment containing some information from pahole
indicating the size and padding of that struct.
Unfortunately, this comment hasn't been updated since 9ac3f0e5b3
(pack-objects: fix performance issues on packing large deltas,
2018-07-22), despite the size of this struct changing many times since
that commit.
To see just how often the size of object_entry changes, I skimmed the
first-parent history with this script:
for sha in $(git rev-list --first-parent --reverse 9ac3f0e..)
do
echo -n "$sha "
git checkout -q $sha
make -s pack-objects.o 2>/dev/null
pahole -C object_entry pack-objects.o | sed -n \
-e 's/\/\* size: \([0-9]*\).*/size \1/p' \
-e 's/\/\*.*padding: \([0-9]*\).*/padding \1/p' | xargs
done | uniq -f1
In between each merge, the size of object_entry changes too often to
record every instance here. But the important merges (along with their
corresponding sizes and bit paddings) in chronological order are:
ad635e82d6 (Merge branch 'nd/pack-objects-pack-struct', 2018-05-23) size 80 padding 4
29d9e3e2c4 (Merge branch 'nd/pack-deltify-regression-fix', 2018-08-22) size 80 padding 9
3ebdef2e1b (Merge branch 'jk/pack-delta-reuse-with-bitmap', 2018-09-17) size 80 padding 8
33e4ae9c50 (Merge branch 'bc/sha-256', 2019-01-29) size 96 padding 8
(indicating that the current size of the struct is 96 bytes, with 8
padding bits).
Even though this comment was written in a good spirit, it is updated
infrequently enough that it serves to confuse rather than to encourage
contributors to update the appropriate values when the modify the
definition of object_entry.
For that reason, eliminate the confusion by removing the comment
altogether.

The contrib/vscode/init.sh script initializes the .vscode directory with
some helpful metadata so VS Code handles Git code better.
One big issue that VS Code has is detecting the tab width based on file
type. ".txt" files were not covered by this script before, so add them
with the appropriate tab widths. This prevents inserting spaces instead
of tabs and keeps the tab width to eight instead of four or two.
While we are here, remove the "editor.wordWrap" settings. The editor's
word wrap is only cosmetic: it does not actually insert newlines when
your typing goes over the column limit. This can make it appear like you
have properly wrapped code, but it is incorrect. Further, existing code
that is over the column limit is wrapped even if your editor window is
wider than the limit. This can make reading such code more difficult.
Without these lines, VS Code renders the lines accurately, without
"ghost" newlines.
