When parsing a commit, the default behavior is to stuff the original
buffer into a commit_slab (which takes ownership of it). But for a tool
like fsck, this isn't useful. While we may look at the buffer further as
part of fsck_commit(), we'll always do so through a separate pointer;
attaching the buffer to the slab doesn't help.
Worse, it means we have to remember to free the commit buffer in all
call paths. We do so in fsck_obj(), which covers a regular "git fsck".
But with "--connectivity-only", we forget to do so in both
traverse_one_object(), which covers reachable objects, and
mark_unreachable_referents(), which covers unreachable ones. As a
result, that mode ends up storing an uncompressed copy of every commit
on the heap at once.
We could teach the code paths for --connectivity-only to also free
commit buffers. But there's an even easier fix: we can just turn off the
save_commit_buffer flag, and then we won't attach them to the commits in
the first place.
This reduces the peak heap of running "git fsck --connectivity-only" in
a clone of linux.git from ~2GB to ~1GB. According to massif, the
remaining memory goes where you'd expect: the object structs themselves,
the obj_hash containing them, and the delta base cache.
Note that we'll leave the call to free commit buffers in fsck_obj() for
now; it's not quite redundant because of a related bug that we'll fix in
a subsequent commit.

After calling fsck_walk(), a tree object struct may be left in the
parsed state, with the full tree contents available via tree->buffer.
It's the responsibility of the caller to free these when it's done with
the object to avoid having many trees allocated at once.
In a regular "git fsck", we hit fsck_walk() only from fsck_obj(), which
does call free_tree_buffer(). Likewise for "--connectivity-only", we see
most objects via traverse_one_object(), which makes a similar call.
The exception is in mark_unreachable_referents(). When using both
"--connectivity-only" and "--dangling" (the latter of which is the
default), we walk all of the unreachable objects, and there we forget to
free. Most cases would not notice this, because they don't have a lot of
unreachable objects, but you can make a pathological case like this:
git clone --bare /path/to/linux.git repo.git
cd repo.git
rm packed-refs ;# now everything is unreachable!
git fsck --connectivity-only
That ends up with peak heap usage ~18GB, which is (not coincidentally)
close to the size of all uncompressed trees in the repository. After
this patch, the peak heap is only ~2GB.
A few things to note:
- it might seem like fsck_walk(), if it is parsing the trees, should
be responsible for freeing them. But the situation is quite tricky.
In the non-connectivity mode, after we call fsck_walk() we then
proceed with fsck_object() which actually does the type-specific
sanity checks on the object contents. We do pass our own separate
buffer to fsck_object(), but there's a catch: our earlier call to
parse_object_buffer() may have attached that buffer to the object
struct! So by freeing it, we leave the rest of the code with a
dangling pointer.
Likewise, the call to fsck_walk() in index-pack is subtle. It
attaches a buffer to the tree object that must not be freed! And
so rather than calling free_tree_buffer(), it actually detaches it
by setting tree->buffer to NULL.
These cases would _probably_ be fixable by having fsck_walk() free
the tree buffer only when it was the one who allocated it via
parse_tree(). But that would still leave the callers responsible for
freeing other cases, so they wouldn't be simplified. While the
current semantics for fsck_walk() make it easy to accidentally leak
in new callers, at least they are simple to explain, and it's not a
function that's likely to get a lot of new call-sites.
And in any case, it's probably sensible to fix the leak first with
this simple patch, and try any more complicated refactoring
separately.
- a careful reader may notice that fsck_obj() also frees commit
buffers, but neither the call in traverse_one_object() nor the one
touched in this patch does so. And indeed, this is another problem
for --connectivity-only (and accounts for most of the 2GB heap after
this patch), but it's one we'll fix in a separate commit.

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.

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.

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.

With 31c8221a (mktree: validate entry type in input, 2009-05-14), we
called the sha1_object_info() API to obtain the type information, but
allowed the call to silently fail when the object was missing locally,
so that we can sanity-check the types opportunistically when the
object did exist.
The implementation is understandable because back then there was no
lazy/on-demand downloading of individual objects from the promisor
remotes that causes a long delay and materializes the object, hence
defeating the point of using "--missing". The design is hurting us
now.
We could bypass the opportunistic type/mode consistency check
altogether when "--missing" is given, but instead, use the
oid_object_info_extended() API and tell it that we are only interested
in objects that locally exist and are immediately available by passing
OBJECT_INFO_SKIP_FETCH_OBJECT bit to it. That way, we will still
retain the cheap and opportunistic sanity check for local objects.

The resolve-undo extension was added to the index in cfc5789a

section, 2009-12-25). This extension records the blob object names
and their modes of conflicted paths when the path gets resolved
(e.g. with "git add"), to allow "undoing" the resolution with
"checkout -m path". These blob objects should be guarded from
garbage-collection while we have the resolve-undo information in the
index (otherwise unresolve operation may try to use a blob object
that has already been pruned away).
But the code called from mark_reachable_objects() for the index
forgets to do so. Teach add_index_objects_to_pending() helper to

The `--preserve-merges` option was removed by v2.34.0. However
users may not be aware that it is also a Pull configuration option,
which is still offered by major IDE vendors such as Visual Studio.
Extend the `--preserve-merges` die message to also direct users to
the possible use of the `preserve` option in the `pull.rebase` config.
This is an additional 'belt and braces' information statement.

Git would die if a "rebase --preserve-merges" was in progress.
Users could neither --quit, --abort, nor --continue the rebase.
Make the `rebase --abort` option available to allow users to remove
traces of any preserve-merges rebase, even if they had upgraded
during a rebase.
One trigger case was an unexpectedly difficult to resolve conflict, as
reported on the `git-users` group.

Other potential use-cases include git-experts using the portable
'Git on a stick' to help users with an older git version.

Since feebd2d256 (rebase: hide --preserve-merges option, 2019-10-18)
this option is now removed as stated in the subsequent release notes.
Fix and reflow the option tip.

When `show-ref` is combined with the `--heads` or `--tags` options, it
can avoid iterating parts of a repository's references that it doesn't
care about.
But it doesn't take advantage of this potential optimization. When this
command was introduced back in 358ddb62cf (Add "git show-ref" builtin
command, 2006-09-15), `for_each_ref_in()` did exist. But since most
repositories don't have many (any?) references that aren't branches or
tags already, this makes little difference in practice.
Though for repositories with a large imbalance of branches and tags (or,
more likely in the case of server operators, many hidden references),
this can make quite a difference. Take, for example, a repository with
500,000 "hidden" references (all of the form "refs/__hidden__/N"), and
a single branch:
git commit --allow-empty -m "base" &&
seq 1 500000 | sed 's,\(.*\),create refs/__hidden__/\1 HEAD,' |
git update-ref --stdin &&
git pack-refs --all
Outputting the existence of that single branch currently takes on the
order of ~50ms on my machine. The vast majority of this time is wasted
iterating through references that we know we're going to discard.
Instead, teach `show-ref` that it can iterate just "refs/heads" and/or
"refs/tags" when given `--heads` and/or `--tags`, respectively. A few
small interesting things to note:
- When given either option, we can avoid the general-purpose
for_each_ref() call altogether, since we know that it won't give us
any references that we wouldn't filter out already.
- We can make two separate calls to `for_each_fullref_in()` (and
avoid, say, the more specialized `for_each_fullref_in_prefixes()`,
since we know that the set of references enumerated by each is
disjoint, so we'll never see the same reference appear in both
calls.
- We have to use the "fullref" variant (instead of just
`for_each_branch_ref()` and `for_each_tag_ref()`), since we expect
fully-qualified reference names to appear in `show-ref`'s output.
When either of `heads_only` or `tags_only` is set, we can eliminate the
strcmp() calls in `builtin/show-ref.c::show_ref()` altogether, since we
know that `show_ref()` will never see a non-branch or tag reference.
Unfortunately, we can't use `for_each_fullref_in_prefixes()` to enhance
`show-ref`'s pattern matching, since `show-ref` patterns match on the
_suffix_ (e.g., the pattern "foo" shows "refs/heads/foo",
"refs/tags/foo", and etc, not "foo/*").
Nonetheless, in our synthetic example above, this provides a significant
speed-up ("git" is roughly v2.36, "git.compile" is this patch):
$ hyperfine -N 'git show-ref --heads' 'git.compile show-ref --heads'
Benchmark 1: git show-ref --heads
Time (mean ± σ): 49.9 ms ± 6.2 ms [User: 45.6 ms, System: 4.1 ms]
Range (min … max): 46.1 ms … 73.6 ms 43 runs
Benchmark 2: git.compile show-ref --heads
Time (mean ± σ): 2.8 ms ± 0.4 ms [User: 1.4 ms, System: 1.2 ms]
Range (min … max): 1.3 ms … 5.6 ms 957 runs
Summary
'git.compile show-ref --heads' ran
