Add missing tests for showing a tree with "git show". Let's test for
showing a tree, two trees, and that doing so doesn't recurse.
The only tests for this code added in 5d7eeee2ac (git-show: grok
blobs, trees and tags, too, 2006-12-14) were the tests in
t7701-repack-unpack-unreachable.sh added in ccc1297226 (repack:

2008-05-09).
Let's add this common mode of operation to the "show" tests
themselves. It's more obvious, and the tests in
t7701-repack-unpack-unreachable.sh happily pass if we start buggily
emitting trees recursively.

When we started on merge-ort, thousands of tests failed when run with
the GIT_TEST_MERGE_ALGORITHM=ort flag; with so many, it didn't make
sense to flip all their test expectations. The ones in t6409, t6418,
and the submodule tests are being handled by an independent in-flight

t6423 were left out of the other series because other ongoing series
that this commit depends upon were addressing those. Now that we only
have one remaining test failure in t6423, let's mark it as such.
This remaining test will be fixed by a future optimization series, but
since merge-recursive doesn't pass this test either, passing it is not

There are a variety of questions users might ask while resolving
conflicts:
* What changes have been made since the previous (first) parent?
* What changes are staged?
* What is still unstaged? (or what is still conflicted?)
* What changes did I make to resolve conflicts so far?
The first three of these have simple answers:
* git diff HEAD
* git diff --cached
* git diff
There was no way to answer the final question previously. Adding one
is trivial in merge-ort, since it works by creating a tree representing
what should be written to the working copy complete with conflict
markers. Simply write that tree to .git/AUTO_MERGE, allowing users to
answer the fourth question with
* git diff AUTO_MERGE
I avoided using a name like "MERGE_AUTO", because that would be
merge-specific (much like MERGE_HEAD, REBASE_HEAD, REVERT_HEAD,
CHERRY_PICK_HEAD) and I wanted a name that didn't change depending on
which type of operation the merge was part of.
Ensure that paths which clean out other temporary operation-specific
files (e.g. CHERRY_PICK_HEAD, MERGE_MSG, rebase-merge/ state directory)
also clean out this AUTO_MERGE file.

of needing special handling for different filetypes in many different

ll_merge() needs an index when renormalization is requested. Create one
specifically for just this purpose with just the one needed entry. This
fixes t6418.4 and t6418.5 under GIT_TEST_MERGE_ALGORITHM=ort.
NOTE 1: Even if the user has a working copy or a real index (which is
not a given as merge-ort can be used in bare repositories), we
explicitly ignore any .gitattributes file from either of these
locations. merge-ort can be used to merge two branches that are
unrelated to HEAD, so .gitattributes from the working copy and current
index should not be considered relevant.
NOTE 2: Since we are in the middle of merging, there is a risk that
.gitattributes itself is conflicted...leaving us with an ill-defined
situation about how to perform the rest of the merge. It could be that
the .gitattributes file does not even exist on one of the sides of the
merge, or that it has been modified on both sides. If it's been
modified on both sides, it's possible that it could itself be merged
cleanly, though it's also possible that it only merges cleanly if you
use the right version of the .gitattributes file to drive the merge. It
gets kind of complicated. The only test we ever had that attempted to
test behavior in this area was seemingly unaware of the undefined
behavior, but knew the test wouldn't work for lack of attribute handling
support, marked it as test_expect_failure from the beginning, but
managed to fail for several reasons unrelated to attribute handling.
See commit 6f6e7cfb52 ("t6038: remove problematic test", 2020-08-03) for
details. So there are probably various ways to improve what
initialize_attr_index() picks in the case of a conflicted .gitattributes

When 'git pack-objects --stdin-packs' encounters a commit in a pack, it
marks it as a starting point of a best-effort reachability traversal
that is used to populate the name-hash of the objects listed in the
given packs.
The traversal expects that it should be able to walk the ancestors of
all commits in a pack without issue. Ordinarily this is the case, but it
is possible to having missing parents from an unreachable part of the
repository. In that case, we'd consider any missing objects in the
unreachable portion of the graph to be junk.
This should be handled gracefully: since the traversal is best-effort
(i.e., we don't strictly need to fill in all of the name-hash fields),
we should simply ignore any missing links.
This patch does that (by setting the 'ignore_missing_links' bit on the
rev_info struct), and ensures we don't regress in the future by adding a
test which demonstrates this case.
It is a little over-eager, since it will also ignore missing links in
reachable parts of the packs (which would indicate a corrupted
repository), but '--stdin-packs' is explicitly *not* about reachability.
So this step isn't making anything worse for a repository which contains
packs missing reachable objects (since we never drop objects with
'--stdin-packs').

As noted a few commits ago ("diffcore-rename: only compute
dir_rename_count for relevant directories"), when a source file rename
is used as part of directory rename detection, we need to increment
counts for each ancestor directory in dirs_removed with value
RELEVANT_FOR_SELF. However, a few commits ago ("diffcore-rename: check
if we have enough renames for directories early on"), we may have
downgraded all relevant ancestor directories from RELEVANT_FOR_SELF to
RELEVANT_FOR_ANCESTOR.
For a given file, if no ancestor directory is found in dirs_removed with
a value of RELEVANT_FOR_SELF, then we can downgrade
relevant_source[PATH] from RELEVANT_LOCATION to RELEVANT_NO_MORE. This
means we can skip detecting a rename for that particular path (and any
other paths in the same directory).
For the testcases mentioned in commit 557ac0350d ("merge-ort: begin
performance work; instrument with trace2_region_* calls", 2020-10-28),
this change improves the performance as follows:
Before After
no-renames: 5.680 s ± 0.096 s 5.665 s ± 0.129 s
mega-renames: 13.812 s ± 0.162 s 11.435 s ± 0.158 s
just-one-mega: 506.0 ms ± 3.9 ms 494.2 ms ± 6.1 ms
While this improvement looks rather modest for these testcases (because
all the previous optimizations were sufficient to nearly remove all time
spent in rename detection already), consider this alternative testcase
tweaked from the ones in commit 557ac0350d as follows
<Same initial setup as commit 557ac0350d, then...>
$ git switch -c add-empty-file v5.5
$ >drivers/gpu/drm/i915/new-empty-file
$ git add drivers/gpu/drm/i915/new-empty-file
$ git commit -m "new file"
$ git switch 5.4-rename
$ git cherry-pick --strategy=ort add-empty-file
For this testcase, we see the following improvement:
Before After
pick-empty: 1.936 s ± 0.024 s 688.1 ms ± 4.2 ms
So roughly a factor of 3 speedup. At $DAYJOB, there was a particular
repository and cherry-pick that inspired this optimization; for that
case I saw a speedup factor of 7 with this optimization.

Note that this change means dir_rename_count might have a directory
whose only entry (for UNKNOWN_DIR) was removed by the time merge-ort
goes to check it. To account for this, merge-ort needs to check for the
case where the max count is 0.
With this change we are now computing the necessary value for each
directory in dirs_removed, but are not using that value anywhere. The

When one side adds files to a directory that the other side renamed,
directory rename detection is used to either move the new paths to the
newer directory or warn the user about the fact that another path
location might be better.
If a parent of the given directory had new files added to it, any
renames in the current directory are also part of determining where the
parent directory is renamed to. Thus, naively, we need to record each
rename N times for a path at depth N. However, we can use the
additional information added to dirs_removed in the last commit to avoid
traversing all N parent directories in many cases. Let's use an example
to explain how this works. If we have a path named
src/old_dir/a/b/file.c
and src/old_dir doesn't exist on one side of history, but the other
added a file named src/old_dir/newfile.c, then if one side renamed
src/old_dir/a/b/file.c => source/new_dir/a/b/file.c
then this file would affect potential directory rename detection counts
for
src/old_dir/a/b => source/new_dir/a/b
src/old_dir/a => source/new_dir/a
src/old_dir => source/new_dir
src => source
adding a weight of 1 to each in dir_rename_counts. However, if src/
exists on both sides of history, then we don't need to track any entries
for it in dir_rename_counts. That was implemented previously. What we
are adding now, is that if no new files were added to src/old_dir/a or
src/old_dir/b, then we don't need to have counts in dir_rename_count
for those directories either.
In short, we only need to track counts in dir_rename_count for
directories whose dirs_removed value is RELEVANT_FOR_SELF. And as soon
as we reach a directory that isn't in dirs_removed (signalled by
returning the default value of NOT_RELEVANT from strintmap_get()), we
can stop looking any further up the directory hierarchy.

As noted in the previous commit, we want to be able to take advantage of
the "majority rules" portion of directory rename detection to avoid
detecting more renames than necessary. However, for diffcore-rename to
take advantage of that, it needs to know whether a rename source file
was needed for just directory rename detection reasons, or if it is
wanted for potential three-way content merging. Modify relevant_sources
from a strset to a strintmap, so we can encode additional information.
We also modify dirs_removed from a strset to a strintmap at the same
time because trying to determine what files are needed for directory
rename detection will require us tracking a bit more information for
each directory.
This commit only changes the types of the two variables from strset to
strintmap; it does not actually store any special values yet and for now
only checks for presence of entries in the strintmap. Thus, the code is
functionally identical to how it behaved before. Future commits will
start associating values with each key for these two maps.

In directory rename detection (when a directory is removed on one side
of history and the other side adds new files to that directory), we work
to find where the greatest number of files within that directory were
renamed to so that the new files can be moved with the majority of the
files.
Naively, we can just do this by detecting renames for *all* files within
the removed/renamed directory, looking at all the destination
directories where files within that directory were moved, and if there
is more than one such directory then taking the one with the greatest
number of files as the directory where the old directory was renamed to.
However, sometimes there are enough renames from exact rename detection
or basename-guided rename detection that we have enough information to
determine the majority winner already. Add a function meant to compute
whether particular renames are still needed based on this majority rules
check. The next several commits will then add the necessary
infrastructure to get the information we need to compute which
additional rename sources we can skip.
An important side note for future further optimization:
There is a possible improvement to this optimization that I have not yet
attempted and will not be included in this series of patches: we could
first check whether exact renames provide enough information for us to
determine directory renames, and avoid doing basename-guided rename
detection on some or all of the RELEVANT_LOCATION files within those
directories. In effect, this variant would mean doing the
handle_early_known_dir_renames() both after exact rename detection and
again after basename-guided rename detection, though it would also mean
decrementing the number of "unknown" renames for each rename we found
from basename-guided rename detection. Adding this additional check for
skippable renames right after exact rename detection might turn out to
be valuable, especially for partial clones where it might allow us to
download certain source files entirely. However, this particular
optimization was actually the last one I did in original implementation
order, and by the time I implemented this idea, every testcase I had was
sufficiently fast that further optimization was unwarranted. If future
testcases arise that tax rename detection more heavily (or perhaps
partial clones can benefit from avoiding loading more objects), it may
be worth implementing this more involved variant.

They will be used in a future patch adding parallel checkout support,
for two reasons:
- We will already load the conversion attributes in checkout_entry(),
before conversion, to decide whether a path is eligible for parallel
checkout. Therefore, it would be wasteful to load them again later,
for the actual conversion.
- The parallel workers will be responsible for reading, converting and
writing blobs to the working tree. They won't have access to the main
process' index state, so they cannot load the attributes. Instead,
they will receive the preloaded ones and call the _ca() variant of
the conversion functions. Furthermore, the attributes machinery is
optimized to handle paths in sequential order, so it's better to leave

At 1d718a5108 ("do not overwrite untracked symlinks", 2011-02-20),
symlink.c:check_leading_path() started returning different codes for
FL_ENOENT and FL_SYMLINK. But one of its callers, unlink_entry(), was
not adjusted for this change, so it started to follow symlinks on the
leading path of to-be-removed entries. Fix that and add a regression
test.
Note that since 1d718a5108 check_leading_path() no longer differentiates
the case where it found a symlink in the path's leading components from
the cases where it found a regular file or failed to lstat() the
component. So, a side effect of this current patch is that
unlink_entry() now returns early in all of these three cases. And
because we no longer try to unlink such paths, we also don't get the
warning from remove_or_warn().
For the regular file and symlink cases, it's questionable whether the
warning was useful in the first place: unlink_entry() removes tracked
paths that should no longer be present in the state we are checking out
to. If the path had its leading dir replaced by another file, it means
that the basename already doesn't exist, so there is no need for a
warning. Sure, we are leaving a regular file or symlink behind at the
path's dirname, but this file is either untracked now (so again, no
need to warn), or it will be replaced by a tracked file during the next
phase of this checkout operation.
As for failing to lstat() one of the leading components, the basename
might still exist only we cannot unlink it (e.g. due to the lack of the
required permissions). Since the user expect it to be removed
(especially with checkout's --no-overlay option), add back the warning
in this more relevant case.

Since 1d718a5108 ("do not overwrite untracked symlinks", 2011-02-20),
the comment on top of threaded_check_leading_path() is outdated and no
longer reflects the behavior of this function. Let's updated it to avoid
confusions. While we are here, also remove some duplicated comments to
avoid similar maintenance problems.

Refactor code I recently changed in 1f3299fda9 (fsck: make
fsck_config() re-usable, 2021-01-05) so that I could use fsck's config
callback in mktag in 1f3299fda9 (fsck: make fsck_config() re-usable,
2021-01-05).
I don't know what I was thinking in structuring the code this way, but
it clearly makes no sense to have an fsck_config_internal() at all
just so it can get a fsck_options when git_config() already supports
passing along some void* data.
Let's just make use of that instead, which gets us rid of the two
wrapper functions, and brings fsck's common config callback in line
with other such reusable config callbacks.

In 56c6910028 (fsmonitor: change last update timestamp on the
index_state to opaque token, 2020-01-07), we forgot to adjust
`discard_index()` to release the "last-update" token: it is no longer a
64-bit number, but a free-form string that has been allocated.

In 56c6910028 (fsmonitor: change last update timestamp on the
index_state to opaque token, 2020-01-07), we forgot to adjust the part
of `unpack_trees()` that copies the FSMonitor "last-update" information
that we copy from the source index to the result index since 679f2f9fdd
(unpack-trees: skip stat on fsmonitor-valid files, 2019-11-20).
Since the "last-update" information is no longer a 64-bit number, but a
free-form string that has been allocated, we need to duplicate it rather
than just copying it.
This is important because there _are_ cases when `unpack_trees()` will
perform a oneway merge that implicitly calls `refresh_fsmonitor()`
(which will allocate that "last-update" token). This happens _after_
that token was copied into the result index. However, we _then_ call
`check_updates()` on that index, which will _also_ call
`refresh_fsmonitor()`, accessing the "last-update" string, which by now
would be released already.
In the instance that lead to this patch, this caused a segmentation
fault during a lengthy, complicated rebase involving the todo command
`reset` that (crucially) had to updated many files. Unfortunately, it
seems very hard to trigger that crash, therefore this patch is not
accompanied by a regression test.
