Since some callers may want to send warning messages to somewhere other
than stdout/stderr, stop printing "warning: Cannot merge binary files"
from ll-merge and instead modify the return status of ll_merge() to
indicate when a merge of binary files has occurred. Message printing
probably does not belong in a "low-level merge" anyway.
This commit continues printing the message as-is, just from the callers
instead of within ll_merge(). Future changes will start handling the
message differently in the merge-ort codepath.
There was one special case here: the callers in rerere.c do NOT check
for and print such a message; since those code paths explicitly skip
over binary files, there is no reason to check for a return status of
LL_MERGE_BINARY_CONFLICT or print the related message.
Note that my methodology included first modifying ll_merge() to return
a struct, so that the compiler would catch all the callers for me and
ensure I had modified all of them. After modifying all of them, I then
changed the struct to an enum.

Many places in the code were doing
while ((d = readdir(dir)) != NULL) {
if (is_dot_or_dotdot(d->d_name))
continue;
...process d...
}
Introduce a readdir_skip_dot_and_dotdot() helper to make that a one-liner:
while ((d = readdir_skip_dot_and_dotdot(dir)) != NULL) {
...process d...
}
This helper particularly simplifies checks for empty directories.
Also use this helper in read_cached_dir() so that our statistics are
consistent across platforms. (In other words, read_cached_dir() should
have been using is_dot_or_dotdot() and skipping such entries, but did
not and left it to treat_path() to detect and mark such entries as
path_none.)

We store a struct for each directory we access under .git/rr-cache. The
structs are kept in an array sorted by the binary hash associated with
their name (and we do lookups with a binary search).
This works OK, but there are a few small downsides:
- the amount of code isn't huge, but it's more than we'd need using one
of our other stock data structures
- the insertion into a sorted array is quadratic (though in practice
it's unlikely anybody has enough conflicts for this to matter)
- it's intimately tied to the representation of an object hash. This
isn't a big deal, as the conflict ids we generate use the same hash,
but it produces a few awkward bits (e.g., we are the only user of
hash_pos() that is not using object_id).
Let's instead just treat the directory names as strings, and store them
in a strmap. This is less code, and removes the use of hash_pos().
Insertion is now non-quadratic, though we probably use a bit more
memory. Besides the hash table overhead, and storing hex bytes instead
of a binary hash, we actually store each name twice. Other code expects
to access the name of a rerere_dir struct from the struct itself, so we
need a copy there. But strmap keeps its own copy of the name, as well.
Using a bare hashmap instead of strmap means we could use the name for
both, but at the cost of extra code (e.g., our own comparison function).
Likewise, strmap has a feature to use a pointer to the in-struct name at
the cost of a little extra code. I didn't do either here, as simple code
seemed more important than squeezing out a few bytes of efficiency.

We check only that get_sha1_hex() doesn't complain, which means we'd
match an all-hex name with trailing cruft after it. This probably
doesn't matter much in practice, since there shouldn't be anything else
in the rr-cache directory, but it could possibly cause us to mix up sha1
and sha256 entries (which also shouldn't be intermingled, but could be
leftovers from a repository conversion).
Note that "get_sha1_hex()" is a confusing historical name. It is
actually using the_hash_algo, so it would be sha256 in a sha256 repo.
We'll switch to using parse_oid_hex(), because that conveniently
advances our pointer. But it also gets rid of the sha1 name. Arguably
it's a little funny to use "object_id" here for something that isn't
actually naming an object, but it's unlikely to be a problem (and is
contained in a single function).

In rerere_gc(), we walk over the .git/rr_cache directory and create a
struct for each entry we find. We feed any name we get from readdir() to
find_rerere_dir(), which then calls get_sha1_hex() on it (since we use
the binary hash as a lookup key). If that fails (i.e., the directory
name is not what we expected), it returns NULL. But the comment in
find_rerere_dir() says "BUG".
It _would_ be a bug for the call from new_rerere_id_hex(), the only
other code path, to fail here; it's generating the hex internally. But
the call in rerere_gc() is using it say "is this a plausible directory
name".
Let's instead have rerere_gc() do its own "is this plausible" check.
That has two benefits:
- we can now reliably BUG() inside find_rerere_dir(), which would
catch bugs in the other code path (and we now will never return NULL
from the function, which makes it easier to see that a rerere_id
struct will always have a non-NULL "collection" field).
- it makes the use of the binary hash an implementation detail of
find_rerere_dir(), not known by callers. That will free us up to
change it in a future patch.

Currently when a user doesn't resolve a conflict, commits the results,
and does an operation which creates another conflict, rerere will use
the ID of the previously unresolved conflict for the new conflict.
This is because the conflict is kept in the MERGE_RR file, which
'rerere' reads every time it is invoked.
After the new conflict is solved, rerere will record the resolution
with the ID of the old conflict. So in order to replay the conflict,
both merges would have to be re-done, instead of just the last one, in
order for rerere to be able to automatically resolve the conflict.
Instead of that, assign a new conflict ID if there are still conflicts
in a file and the file had conflicts at a previous step. This ID
matches the conflict we actually resolved at the corresponding step.
Note that there are no backwards compatibility worries here, as rerere
would have failed to even normalize the conflict before this patch
series.

Currently rerere can't handle nested conflicts and will error out when
it encounters such conflicts. Do that by recursively calling the
'handle_conflict' function to normalize the conflict.
Note that a conflict like this would only be produced if a user
commits a file with conflict markers, and gets a conflict including
that in a susbsequent operation.
The conflict ID calculation here deserves some explanation:
As we are using the same handle_conflict function, the nested conflict
is normalized the same way as for non-nested conflicts, which means
the ancestor in the diff3 case is stripped out, and the parts of the
conflict are ordered alphabetically.
The conflict ID is however is only calculated in the top level
handle_conflict call, so it will include the markers that 'rerere'
adds to the output. e.g. say there's the following conflict:
<<<<<<< HEAD
1
=======
<<<<<<< HEAD
3
=======
2
>>>>>>> branch-2
>>>>>>> branch-3~
it would be recorde as follows in the preimage:
<<<<<<<
1
=======
<<<<<<<
2
=======
3
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>
and the conflict ID would be calculated as
sha1(1<NUL><<<<<<<
2
=======
3
>>>>>>><NUL>)
Stripping out vs. leaving the conflict markers in place in the inner
conflict should have no practical impact, but it simplifies the
implementation.

Currently we write the conflict to disk directly in the handle_path
function. To make it re-usable for nested conflicts, instead of
writing the conflict out directly, store it in a strbuf and let the
caller write it out.
This does mean some slight increase in memory usage, however that
increase is limited to the size of the largest conflict we've
currently processed. We already keep one copy of the conflict in
memory, and it shouldn't be too large, so the increase in memory usage
seems acceptable.

Currently when a user does a conflict resolution and ends it (in any
way that calls 'git rerere' again) with a file 'rerere' can't handle,
subsequent rerere operations that are interested in that path, such as
'rerere clear' or 'rerere forget <path>' will fail, or even worse in
the case of 'rerere clear' segfault.
Such states include nested conflicts, or a conflict marker that
doesn't have any match.
This is because 'git rerere' calculates a conflict file and writes it
to the MERGE_RR file. When the user then changes the file in any way
rerere can't handle, and then calls 'git rerere' on it again to record
the conflict resolution, the handle_file function fails, and removes
the 'preimage' file in the rr-cache in the process, while leaving the
ID in the MERGE_RR file.
Now when 'rerere clear' is run, it reads the ID from the MERGE_RR
file, however the 'fit_variant' function for the ID is never called as
the 'preimage' file does not exist anymore. This means
'collection->status' in 'has_rerere_resolution' is NULL, and the
command will crash.
To fix this, remove the rerere ID from the MERGE_RR file in the case
when we can't handle it, just after the 'preimage' file was removed
and remove the corresponding variant from .git/rr-cache/. Removing it
unconditionally is fine here, because if the user would have resolved
the conflict and ran rerere, the entry would no longer be in the
MERGE_RR file, so we wouldn't have this problem in the first place,
while if the conflict was not resolved.
Currently there is nothing left in this folder, as the 'preimage'
was already deleted by the 'handle_file' function, so 'remove_variant'
is a no-op. Still call the function, to make sure we clean everything
up, in case we add some other files corresponding to a variant in the
future.
Note that other variants that have the same conflict ID will not be
touched.

Placing `struct lock_file`s on the stack used to be a bad idea, because
the temp- and lockfile-machinery would keep a pointer into the struct.
But after 076aa2cbd (tempfile: auto-allocate tempfiles on heap,
2017-09-05), we can safely have lockfiles on the stack. (This applies
even if a user returns early, leaving a locked lock behind.)
Each of these `struct lock_file`s is used from within a single function.
Move them into the respective functions to make the scope clearer and
drop the staticness.
For good measure, I have inspected these sites and come to believe that
they always release the lock, with the possible exception of bailing out
using `die()` or `exit()` or by returning from a `cmd_foo()`.
As pointed out by Jeff King, it would be bad if someone held on to a
`struct lock_file *` for some reason. After some grepping, I agree with
his findings: no-one appears to be doing that.
After this commit, the remaining occurrences of "static struct
lock_file" are locks that are used from within different functions. That
is, they need to remain static. (Short of more intrusive changes like
passing around pointers to non-static locks.)

Teach `write_locked_index()` to take a new flag SKIP_IF_UNCHANGED and

Many codepaths did not diagnose write failures correctly when disks
go full, due to their misuse of write_in_full() helper function,
which have been corrected.
* jk/write-in-full-fix:
read_pack_header: handle signed/unsigned comparison in read result
config: flip return value of store_write_*()
notes-merge: use ssize_t for write_in_full() return value
pkt-line: check write_in_full() errors against "< 0"
convert less-trivial versions of "write_in_full() != len"
avoid "write_in_full(fd, buf, len) != len" pattern
get-tar-commit-id: check write_in_full() return against 0
config: avoid "write_in_full(fd, buf, len) < len" pattern
The return value of write_in_full() is either "-1", or the
requested number of bytes[1]. If we make a partial write
before seeing an error, we still return -1, not a partial
value. This goes back to f6aa66cb95 (write_in_full: really
write in full or return error on disk full., 2007-01-11).
So checking anything except "was the return value negative"
is pointless. And there are a couple of reasons not to do
so:
1. It can do a funny signed/unsigned comparison. If your
"len" is signed (e.g., a size_t) then the compiler will
promote the "-1" to its unsigned variant.
This works out for "!= len" (unless you really were
trying to write the maximum size_t bytes), but is a
bug if you check "< len" (an example of which was fixed
recently in config.c).
We should avoid promoting the mental model that you
need to check the length at all, so that new sites are
not tempted to copy us.
2. Checking for a negative value is shorter to type,
especially when the length is an expression.
3. Linus says so. In d34cf19b89 (Clean up write_in_full()
users, 2007-01-11), right after the write_in_full()
semantics were changed, he wrote:
I really wish every "write_in_full()" user would just
check against "<0" now, but this fixes the nasty and
stupid ones.
Appeals to authority aside, this makes it clear that
writing it this way does not have an intentional
benefit. It's a historical curiosity that we never
bothered to clean up (and which was undoubtedly
cargo-culted into new sites).
So let's convert these obviously-correct cases (this
includes write_str_in_full(), which is just a wrapper for
write_in_full()).
[1] A careful reader may notice there is one way that
write_in_full() can return a different value. If we ask
write() to write N bytes and get a return value that is
_larger_ than N, we could return a larger total. But
besides the fact that this would imply a totally broken
version of write(), it would already invoke undefined
behavior. Our internal remaining counter is an unsigned
size_t, which means that subtracting too many byte will
wrap it around to a very large number. So we'll instantly
begin reading off the end of the buffer, trying to write
gigabytes (or petabytes) of data.

These two configuration variables are described in the documentation
to take an expiry period expressed in the number of days:
gc.rerereResolved::
Records of conflicted merge you resolved earlier are
kept for this many days when 'git rerere gc' is run.
The default is 60 days.
gc.rerereUnresolved::
Records of conflicted merge you have not resolved are
kept for this many days when 'git rerere gc' is run.
The default is 15 days.
There is no strong reason not to allow a more general "approxidate"
expiry specification, e.g. "5.days.ago", or "never".
Rename the config_get_expiry() helper introduced in the previous
step to git_config_get_expiry_in_days() and move it to a more
generic place, config.c, and use date.c::parse_expiry_date() to do
so. Give it an ability to allow the caller to tell among three
cases (i.e. there is no "gc.rerereResolved" config, there is and it
is correctly parsed into the *expiry variable, and there was an
error in parsing the given value). The current caller can work
correctly without using the return value, though.
In the future, we may find other variables that only allow an
integer that specifies "this many days" or other unit of time, and
when it happens we may need to drop "_days" suffix from the name of
the function and instead pass the "scale" value as another parameter.
But this will do for now.

The two configuration variables, gc.rerereResolved and
gc.rerereUnresolved, are measured in days and are passed as such
into the prune_one() helper function, which worked in time_t to see
if an entry in the rerere database is past its expiry.
Instead, have the caller turn the number of days into the expiry
timestamp. Further, use timestamp_t instead of time_t. This will
make it possible to extend the way the configuration variable is
spelled by using date.c::parse_expiry_date() that gives the expiry
timestamp in timestamp_t.

A common pattern to free a piece of memory and assign NULL to the
pointer that used to point at it has been replaced with a new
FREE_AND_NULL() macro.
* ab/free-and-null:
*.[ch] refactoring: make use of the FREE_AND_NULL() macro
coccinelle: make use of the "expression" FREE_AND_NULL() rule
coccinelle: add a rule to make "expression" code use FREE_AND_NULL()
coccinelle: make use of the "type" FREE_AND_NULL() rule
coccinelle: add a rule to make "type" code use FREE_AND_NULL()
git-compat-util: add a FREE_AND_NULL() wrapper around free(ptr); ptr = NULL
Fix configuration codepath to pay proper attention to commondir
that is used in multi-worktree situation, and isolate config API
into its own header file.
* bw/config-h:
config: don't implicitly use gitdir or commondir
config: respect commondir
setup: teach discover_git_directory to respect the commondir
config: don't include config.h by default
config: remove git_config_iter
config: create config.h
Replace occurrences of `free(ptr); ptr = NULL` which weren't caught by
the coccinelle rule. These fall into two categories:
- free/NULL assignments one after the other which coccinelle all put
on one line, which is functionally equivalent code, but very ugly.
- manually spotted occurrences where the NULL assignment isn't right
after the free() call.
