When the traversal machinery sees a commit without a root tree, it
assumes that the tree was part of a BOUNDARY commit, and quietly ignores
the tree. But it could also be caused by a commit whose root tree is
broken or missing.
Instead, let's die() when we see a NULL root tree. We can differentiate
it from the BOUNDARY case by seeing if the commit was actually parsed.
This covers that case, plus future-proofs us against any others where we
might try to show an unparsed commit.

Fix one of the cases described in the previous commit where a tree-entry
that is promised to a blob is in fact a non-blob.
When 'lookup_blob()' returns NULL, it is because Git has cached the
requested object as a non-blob. In this case, prevent a SIGSEGV by
'die()'-ing immediately before attempting to dereference the result.

"git pack-objects" learned another algorithm to compute the set of
objects to send, that trades the resulting packfile off to save
traversal cost to favor small pushes.
* ds/push-sparse-tree-walk:
pack-objects: create GIT_TEST_PACK_SPARSE
pack-objects: create pack.useSparse setting
revision: implement sparse algorithm
list-objects: consume sparse tree walk
revision: add mark_tree_uninteresting_sparse
The code to walk tree objects has been taught that we may be
working with object names that are not computed with SHA-1.
* bc/tree-walk-oid:
cache: make oidcpy always copy GIT_MAX_RAWSZ bytes
tree-walk: store object_id in a separate member
match-trees: use hashcpy to splice trees
match-trees: compute buffer offset correctly when splicing
tree-walk: copy object ID before use
When creating a pack-file using 'git pack-objects --revs' we provide
a list of interesting and uninteresting commits. For example, a push
operation would make the local topic branch be interesting and the
known remote refs as uninteresting. We want to discover the set of
new objects to send to the server as a thin pack.
We walk these commits until we discover a frontier of commits such
that every commit walk starting at interesting commits ends in a root
commit or unintersting commit. We then need to discover which
non-commit objects are reachable from uninteresting commits. This
commit walk is not changing during this series.
The mark_edges_uninteresting() method in list-objects.c iterates on
the commit list and does the following:
* If the commit is UNINTERSTING, then mark its root tree and every
object it can reach as UNINTERESTING.
* If the commit is interesting, then mark the root tree of every
UNINTERSTING parent (and all objects that tree can reach) as
UNINTERSTING.
At the very end, we repeat the process on every commit directly
given to the revision walk from stdin. This helps ensure we properly
cover shallow commits that otherwise were not included in the
frontier.
The logic to recursively follow trees is in the
mark_tree_uninteresting() method in revision.c. The algorithm avoids
duplicate work by not recursing into trees that are already marked
UNINTERSTING.
Add a new 'sparse' option to the mark_edges_uninteresting() method
that performs this logic in a slightly different way. As we iterate
over the commits, we add all of the root trees to an oidset. Then,
call mark_trees_uninteresting_sparse() on that oidset. Note that we
include interesting trees in this process. The current implementation
of mark_trees_unintersting_sparse() will walk the same trees as
the old logic, but this will be replaced in a later change.
Add a '--sparse' flag in 'git pack-objects' to call this new logic.
Add a new test script t/t5322-pack-objects-sparse.sh that tests this
option. The tests currently demonstrate that the resulting object
list is the same as the old algorithm. This includes a case where
both algorithms pack an object that is not needed by a remote due to
limits on the explored set of trees. When the sparse algorithm is
changed in a later commit, we will add a test that demonstrates a
change of behavior in some cases.

When parsing a tree, we read the object ID directly out of the tree
buffer. This is normally fine, but such an object ID cannot be used with
oidcpy, which copies GIT_MAX_RAWSZ bytes, because if we are using SHA-1,
there may not be that many bytes to copy.
Instead, store the object ID in a separate struct member. Since we can
no longer efficiently compute the path length, store that information as
well in struct name_entry. Ensure we only copy the object ID into the
new buffer if the path length is nonzero, as some callers will pass us
an empty path with no object ID following it, and we will not want to
read past the end of the buffer.

The traversal over tree objects has learned to honor

tree-walk.c: make tree_entry_interesting() take an index

Currently, list-objects.c incorrectly treats all root trees of commits
as USER_GIVEN. Also, it would be easier to mark objects that are
non-user-given instead of user-given, since the places in the code
where we access an object through a reference are more obvious than
the places where we access an object that was given by the user.
Resolve these two problems by introducing a flag NOT_USER_GIVEN that
marks blobs and trees that are non-user-given, replacing USER_GIVEN.
(Only blobs and trees are marked because this mark is only used when
filtering objects, and filtering of other types of objects is not
supported yet.)
This fixes a bug in that git rev-list behaved differently from git
pack-objects. pack-objects would *not* filter objects given explicitly
on the command line and rev-list would filter. This was because the two
commands used a different function to add objects to the rev_info
struct. This seems to have been an oversight, and pack-objects has the
correct behavior, so I added a test to make sure that rev-list now

A filter line in a request to upload-pack filters out objects regardless

means that cloning with "--filter=blob:none" (or another filter that
excludes blobs) from a repository with at least one ref pointing to a
blob (for example, the Git repository itself) results in output like the
following:
error: missing object referenced by 'refs/tags/junio-gpg-pub'
and if that particular blob is not referenced by a fetched tree, the
resulting clone fails fsck because there is no object from the remote to
vouch that the missing object is a promisor object.

all explicitly specified "want" objects in the packfile regardless of
the filter specification.

Teach rev-list to support termination of an object traversal at any
object from a promisor remote (whether one that the local repo also has,
or one that the local repo knows about because it has another promisor
object that references it).
This will be used subsequently in gc and in the connectivity check used
by fetch.
For efficiency, if an object is referenced by a promisor object, and is
in the local repo only as a non-promisor object, object traversal will
not stop there. This is to avoid building the list of promisor object
references.
(In list-objects.c, the case where obj is NULL in process_blob() and
process_tree() do not need to be changed because those happen only when
there is a conflict between the expected type and the existing object.
If the object doesn't exist, an object will be synthesized, which is

When we find a blob at "a/b/c", we currently pass this to
our show_object_fn callbacks as two components: "a/b/" and
"c". Callbacks which want the full value then call
path_name(), which concatenates the two. But this is an
inefficient interface; the path is a strbuf, and we could
simply append "c" to it temporarily, then roll back the
length, without creating a new copy.
So we could improve this by teaching the callsites of
path_name() this trick (and there are only 3). But we can
also notice that no callback actually cares about the
broken-down representation, and simply pass each callback
the full path "a/b/c" as a string. The callback code becomes
even simpler, then, as we do not have to worry about freeing
an allocated buffer, nor rolling back our modification to
the strbuf.
This is theoretically less efficient, as some callbacks
would not bother to format the final path component. But in
practice this is not measurable. Since we use the same
strbuf over and over, our work to grow it is amortized, and
we really only pay to memcpy a few bytes.

The "struct name_path" data is examined in only two places:
we generate it in process_tree(), and we convert it to a
single string in path_name(). Everyone else just passes it
through to those functions.
We can further note that process_tree() already keeps a
single strbuf with the leading tree path, for use with
tree_entry_interesting().
Instead of building a separate name_path linked list, let's
just use the one we already build in "base". This reduces
the amount of code (especially tricky code in path_name()
which did not check for integer overflows caused by deep
or large pathnames).
It is also more efficient in some instances. Any time we
were using tree_entry_interesting, we were building up the
strbuf anyway, so this is an immediate and obvious win
there. In cases where we were not, we trade off storing
"pathname/" in a strbuf on the heap for each level of the
path, instead of two pointers and an int on the stack (with
one pointer into the tree object). On a 64-bit system, the
latter is 20 bytes; so if path components are less than that
on average, this has lower peak memory usage. In practice
it probably doesn't matter either way; we are already
holding in memory all of the tree objects leading up to each
pathname, and for normal-depth pathnames, we are only
talking about hundreds of bytes.
This patch leaves "struct name_path" as a thin wrapper
around the strbuf, to avoid disrupting callbacks. We should
fix them, but leaving it out makes this diff easier to view.

When we call traverse_commit_list, we may have trees and
blobs in the pending array. As we process these, we pass the
"name" field from the pending entry as the path of the
object within the tree (which then becomes the root path if
we recurse into subtrees).
When we set up the traversal in prepare_revision_walk,
though, the "name" field of any pending trees and blobs is
likely to be the ref at which we found the object. We would
not want to make this part of the path (e.g., doing so would
make "git rev-list --objects v2.6.11-tree" in linux.git show
paths like "v2.6.11-tree/Makefile", which is nonsensical).
Therefore prepare_revision_walk sets the name field of each
pending tree and blobs to the empty string.
However, this leaves no room for a caller who does know the
correct path of a pending object to propagate that
information to the revision walker. We can fix this by
making two related changes:
1. Use the "path" field as the path instead of the "name"
field in traverse_commit_list. If the path is not set,
default to "" (which is what we always ended up with in
the current code, because of prepare_revision_walk).
2. In prepare_revision_walk, make a complete copy of the
entry. This makes the path field available to the
walker (if there is one), solving our problem.
Leaving the name field intact is now OK, as we do not
use it as a path due to point (1) above (and we can use
it to make more meaningful error messages if we want).
We also make the original "mode" field available to the
walker, though it does not actually use it.
Note that we still re-add the pending objects and free the
old ones (so we may strdup the path and name only to free
the old ones). This could be made more efficient by simply
copying the object_array entries that we are keeping.
However, that would require more restructuring of the code,
and is not done here.

When pack-objects is computing the reachability bitmap to
serve a fetch request, it can erroneously die() if some of
the UNINTERESTING objects are not present. Upload-pack
throws away HAVE lines from the client for objects we do not
have, but we may have a tip object without all of its
ancestors (e.g., if the tip is no longer reachable and was
new enough to survive a `git prune`, but some of its
reachable objects did get pruned).
In the non-bitmap case, we do a revision walk with the HAVE
objects marked as UNINTERESTING. The revision walker
explicitly ignores errors in accessing UNINTERESTING commits
to handle this case (and we do not bother looking at
UNINTERESTING trees or blobs at all).
When we have bitmaps, however, the process is quite
different. The bitmap index for a pack-objects run is
calculated in two separate steps:
First, we perform an extensive walk from all the HAVEs to
find the full set of objects reachable from them. This walk
is usually optimized away because we are expected to hit an
object with a bitmap during the traversal, which allows us
to terminate early.
Secondly, we perform an extensive walk from all the WANTs,
which usually also terminates early because we hit a commit
with an existing bitmap.
Once we have the resulting bitmaps from the two walks, we
AND-NOT them together to obtain the resulting set of objects
we need to pack.
When we are walking the HAVE objects, the revision walker
does not know that we are walking it only to mark the
results as uninteresting. We strip out the UNINTERESTING flag,
because those objects _are_ interesting to us during the
first walk. We want to keep going to get a complete set of
reachable objects if we can.
We need some way to tell the revision walker that it's OK to
silently truncate the HAVE walk, just like it does for the
UNINTERESTING case. This patch introduces a new
`ignore_missing_links` flag to the `rev_info` struct, which
we set only for the HAVE walk.
It also adds tests to cover UNINTERESTING objects missing
from several positions: a missing blob, a missing tree, and
a missing parent commit. The missing blob already worked (as
we do not care about its contents at all), but the other two
cases caused us to die().
Note that there are a few cases we do not need to test:
1. We do not need to test a missing tree, with the blob
still present. Without the tree that refers to it, we
would not know that the blob is relevant to our walk.
2. We do not need to test a tip commit that is missing.
Upload-pack omits these for us (and in fact, we
complain even in the non-bitmap case if it fails to do
so).
