2.36 format-patch regression fix
e900d494dc (diff: add an API for deferred freeing, 2021-02-11) added a
way to allow reusing diffopts: the no_free bit. 244c27242f (diff.[ch]:
have diff_free() call clear_pathspec(opts.pathspec), 2022-02-16) made
that mechanism mandatory.
git format-patch only sets no_free when --output is given, causing it to
forget pathspecs after the first commit. Set no_free unconditionally
instead.
The existing test was unable to detect this breakage because it checks
stderr for the absence of a certain string, but format-patch writes to
stdout. Also the test was not checking the case of one commit modifying
multiple files and a pathspec limiting the diff. Replace it with a more
thorough one.

This only surfaced as a regression after 2.36 release, but the
breakage was already there with us for at least a year.
e900d494 (diff: add an API for deferred freeing, 2021-02-11)
introduced a mechanism to delay freeing resources held in
diff_options struct that need to be kept as long as the struct will
be reused to compute diff. "git log -p" was taught to utilize the
mechanism but it was done with an incorrect assumption that the
underlying helper function, cmd_log_walk(), is called only once,
and it is OK to do the freeing at the end of it.
Alas, for "git show A B", the function is called once for each
commit given, so it is not OK to free the resources until we finish
calling it for all the commits given from the command line.
During 2.36 release cycle, we started clearing the <pathspec> as
part of this freeing, which made the bug a lot more visible.
Fix this breakage by tweaking how cmd_log_walk() frees the resources
at the end and using a variant of it that does not immediately free
the resources to show each commit object from the command line in
"git show".
Protect the fix with a few new tests.

The 'git show' command can take an input to request the state of an
object in the index. This can lead to parsing the index in order to load
a specific file entry. Without the change presented here, a sparse index
would expand to a full one, taking much longer than usual to access a
simple file.
There is one behavioral change that happens here, though: we now can
find a sparse directory entry within the index! Commands that previously
failed because we could not find an entry in the worktree or index now
succeed because we _do_ find an entry in the index.
There might be more work to do to make other situations succeed when
looking for an indexed tree, perhaps by looking at or updating the
cache-tree extension as needed. These situations include having a full
index or asking for a directory that is within the sparse-checkout cone
(and hence is not a sparse directory entry in the index).
For now, we demonstrate how the sparse index integration is extremely
simple for files outside of the cone as well as directories within the
cone. A later change will resolve this behavior around sparse
directories.

In preparation for having the "log" family of functions make wider use
of release_revisions() let's have them call it just before
exiting. This changes the "log", "whatchanged", "show",
"format-patch", etc. commands, all of which live in this file.
The release_revisions() API still only frees the "pending" member, but
will learn to release more members of "struct rev_info" in subsequent
commits.
In the case of "format-patch" revert the addition of UNLEAK() in
dee839a263 (format-patch: mark rev_info with UNLEAK, 2021-12-16),
which will cause several tests that previously passed under
"TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK=true" to start failing.
In subsequent commits we'll now be able to use those tests to check
whether that part of the API is really leaking memory, and will fix
all of those memory leaks. Removing the UNLEAK() allows us to make
incremental progress in that direction. See [1] for further details
about this approach.
Note that the release_revisions() will not be sufficient to deal with
the code in cmd_show() added in 5d7eeee2ac (git-show: grok blobs,
trees and tags, too, 2006-12-14) which clobbers the "pending" array in
the case of "OBJ_COMMIT". That will need to be dealt with by some
future follow-up work.

Fix two memory leaks in "struct rev_info" by freeing that memory in
cmd_format_patch(). These two are unusual special-cases in being in
the "struct rev_info", but not being "owned" by the code in
revision.c. I.e. they're members of the struct so that this code in
"builtin/log.c" can conveniently pass information code in
"log-tree.c".
See e.g. the make_cover_letter() caller of log_write_email_headers()
here in "builtin/log.c", and [1] for a demonstration of where the
"extra_headers" and "ref_message_ids" struct members are used.
See 20ff06805c (format-patch: resurrect extra headers from config,

subsequent mails replies to the first, 2006-07-14) for the initial
introduction of "extra_headers" and "ref_message_ids".
We can count on repo_init_revisions() memset()-ing this data to 0
however, so we can count on it being either NULL or something we
allocated. In the case of "extra_headers" let's add a local "char *"
variable to hold it, to avoid the eventual cast from "const char *"
when we free() it.

The grep_init() function used the odd pattern of initializing the
passed-in "struct grep_opt" with a statically defined "grep_defaults"
struct, which would be modified in-place when we invoked
grep_config().
So we effectively (b) initialized config, (a) then defaults, (c)
followed by user options. Usually those are ordered as "a", "b" and
"c" instead.
As the comments being removed here show the previous behavior needed
to be carefully explained as we'd potentially share the populated
configuration among different instances of grep_init(). In practice we
didn't do that, but now that it can't be a concern anymore let's
remove those comments.
This does not change the behavior of any of the configuration
variables or options. That would have been the case if we didn't move
around the grep_config() call in "builtin/log.c". But now that we call
"grep_config" after "git_log_config" and "git_format_config" we'll
need to pass in the already initialized "struct grep_opt *".
See 6ba9bb76e0 (grep: copy struct in one fell swoop, 2020-11-29) and
7687a0541e (grep: move the configuration parsing logic to grep.[ch],

The memcpy() pattern here will be optimized away and follows the
convention of other *_init() functions. See 5726a6b401 (*.c *_init():

The --remerge-diff option will need to create new blobs and trees
representing the "automatic merge" state. If one is traversing a
long project history, one can easily get hundreds of thousands of
loose objects generated during `log --remerge-diff`. However, none of
those loose objects are needed after we have completed our diff
operation; they can be summarily deleted.

When this option is specified, we remerge all (two parent) merge commits
and diff the actual merge commit to the automatically created version,
in order to show how users removed conflict markers, resolved the
different conflict versions, and potentially added new changes outside
of conflict regions in order to resolve semantic merge problems (or,
possibly, just to hide other random changes).
This capability works by creating a temporary object directory and
marking it as the primary object store. This makes it so that any blobs
or trees created during the automatic merge are easily removable
afterwards by just deleting all objects from the temporary object
directory.
There are a few ways that this implementation is suboptimal:
* `log --remerge-diff` becomes slow, because the temporary object
directory can fill with many loose objects while running
* the log output can be muddied with misplaced "warning: cannot merge
binary files" messages, since ll-merge.c unconditionally writes those
messages to stderr while running instead of allowing callers to
manage them.
* important conflict and warning messages are simply dropped; thus for
conflicts like modify/delete or rename/rename or file/directory which
are not representable with content conflict markers, there may be no
way for a user of --remerge-diff to know that there had been a
conflict which was resolved (and which possibly motivated other
changes in the merge commit).
* when fixing the previous issue, note that some unimportant conflict
and warning messages might start being included. We should instead
make sure these remain dropped.
Subsequent commits will address these issues.

It's possible to specify --simplify-by-decoration but not --decorate. In
this case we do respect the simplification, but we don't actually show
any decorations. However, it works by lazy-loading the decorations when
needed; this is discussed in more detail in 0cc7380d88 (log-tree: call
load_ref_decorations() in get_name_decoration(), 2019-09-08).
This works for basic cases, but will fail to respect any --decorate-refs
option (or its variants). Those are handled only when cmd_log_init()
loads the ref decorations up front, which is only when --decorate is
specified explicitly (or as of the previous commit, when the userformat
asks for %d or similar).
We can solve this by making sure to load the decorations if we're going
to simplify using them but they're not otherwise going to be displayed.
The new test shows a simple case that fails without this patch. Note
that we expect two commits in the output: the one we asked for by
--decorate-refs, and the initial commit. The latter is just a quirk of
how --simplify-by-decoration works. Arguably it may be a bug, but it's
unrelated to this patch (which is just about the loading of the
decorations; you get the same behavior before this patch with an
explicit --decorate).

In order to show ref decorations, we first have to load them. If you
run:
git log --decorate
then git-log will recognize the option and load them up front via
cmd_log_init(). Likewise if log.decorate is set.
If you don't say --decorate explicitly, but do mention "%d" or "%D" in
the output format, like so:
git log --format=%d
then this also works, because we lazy-load the ref decorations. This has
been true since 3b3d443feb (add '%d' pretty format specifier to show
decoration, 2008-09-04), though the lazy-load was later moved into
log-tree.c.
But there's one problem: that lazy-load just uses the defaults; it
doesn't take into account any --decorate-refs options (or its exclude
variant, or their config). So this does not work:
git log --decorate-refs=whatever --format=%d
It will decorate using all refs, not just the specified ones. This has
been true since --decorate-refs was added in 65516f586b (log: add option
to choose which refs to decorate, 2017-11-21). Adding further confusion
is that it _may_ work because of the auto-decoration feature. If that's
in use (and it often is, as it's the default), then if the output is
going to stdout, we do enable decorations early (and so load them up
front, respecting the extra options). But otherwise we do not. So:
git log --decorate-refs=whatever --format=%d >some-file
would typically behave differently than it does when the output goes to
the pager or terminal!
The solution is simple: we should recognize in cmd_log_init() that we're
going to show decorations, and make sure we load them there. We already
check userformat_find_requirements(), so we can couple this with our
existing code there.
There are two new tests. The first shows off the actual fix. The second
makes sure that our fix doesn't cause us to stomp on an existing
--decorate option (see the new comment in the code, as well).

The `--no-walk` flag supports two modes: either it sorts the revisions
given as input input or it doesn't. This is reflected in a single
`no_walk` flag, which reflects one of the three states "walk", "don't
walk but without sorting" and "don't walk but with sorting".
Split up the flag into two separate bits, one indicating whether we
should walk or not and one indicating whether the input should be sorted
or not. This will allow us to more easily introduce a new flag
`--unsorted-input`, which only impacts the sorting bit.

when that kicks in, cmd_log_init_finish() will unconditionally load the
decoration refs.
However, if we are using a user-format that does not include "%d" or
"%D", we won't show the decorations at all, so we don't need to load
them. We can detect this case and auto-disable them by adding a new
field to our userformat_want helper. We can do this even when the user
explicitly asked for --decorate, because it can't affect the output at
all.
This patch consistently reduces the time to run "git log -1 --format=%H"

Add a diff_free() function to free anything we may have allocated in
the "diff_options" struct, and the ability to make calling it a noop
by setting "no_free" in "diff_options".
This is required because when e.g. "git diff" is run we'll allocate
things in that struct, use the diff machinery once, and then exit.
But if we run e.g. "git log -p" we're going to re-use what we
allocated across multiple diff_flush() calls, and only want to free
things at the end.
We've thus ended up with features like the recently added "diff -I"[1]
where we'll leak memory. As it turns out it could have simply used the
pattern established in 6ea57703f6 (log: prepare log/log-tree to reuse
the diffopt.close_file attribute, 2016-06-22).
Manually adding more such flags to things log_tree_commit() every time
we need to allocate something would be tedious. Let's instead move
that fclose() code it to a new diff_free(), in anticipation of freeing
more things in that function in follow-up commits.
Some functions such as log_tree_commit() need an idiom of optionally
retaining a previous "no_free", as they may either free the memory
themselves, or their caller may do so. I'm keeping that idiom in
log_show_early() for good measure, even though I don't think it's
currently called in this manner. It also gets passed an existing
"struct rev_info", so future callers may want to set the "no_free"
flag.
This change is a bit hard to read because while the freeing pattern
we're introducing isn't unusual, the "file" member is a special
snowflake. We usually don't want to fclose() it. This is because
"file" is usually stdout, in which case we don't want to fclose()
it. We only want to opt-in to closing it when we e.g. open a file on
the filesystem. Thus the opt-in "close_file" flag.
So the API in general just needs a "no_free" flag to defer freeing,
but the "file" member still needs its "close_file" flag. This is made
more confusing because while refactoring this code we could replace
some "close_file=0" with "no_free=1", whereas others need to set both
flags.
This is because there were some cases where an existing "close_file=0"
meant "let's defer deallocation", and others where it meant "we don't
want to close this file handle at all".

Currently, when called with exactly two arguments, `git range-diff`
tests for a literal `..` in each of the two. Likewise, the argument
provided via `--range-diff` to `git format-patch` is checked in the same
manner.
However, `<commit>^!` is a perfectly valid commit range, equivalent to
`<commit>^..<commit>` according to the `SPECIFYING RANGES` section of
gitrevisions[7].
In preparation for allowing more sophisticated ways to specify commit
ranges, let's refactor the check into its own function.

Remove support for the magical "repo-abbrev" comment in .mailmap
files. This was added to .mailmap parsing in [1], as a generalized
feature of the git-shortlog Perl script added earlier in [2].
There was no documentation or tests for this feature, and I don't
think it's used in practice anymore.
What it did was to allow you to specify a single string to be
search-replaced with "/.../" in the .mailmap file. E.g. for
linux.git's current .mailmap:
git archive --remote=git@gitlab.com:linux-kernel/linux.git \
HEAD -- .mailmap | grep -a repo-abbrev
# repo-abbrev: /pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/
Then when running e.g.:
git shortlog --merges --author=Linus -1 v5.10-rc7..v5.10 | grep Merge
We'd emit (the [...] is mine):
Merge tag [...]git://git.kernel.org/.../tip/tip
But will now emit:
Merge tag [...]git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
I think at this point this is just a historical artifact we can get
rid of. It was initially meant for Linus's own use when we integrated
the Perl script[2], but since then it seems he's stopped using it.
Digging through Linus's release announcements on the LKML[3] the last
release I can find that made use of this output is Linux 2.6.25-rc6
back in March 2008[4]. Later on Linus started using --no-merges[5],
and nowadays seems to prefer some custom not-quite-shortlog format of
merges from lieutenants[6].
You will still see it on linux.git if you run "git shortlog" manually
yourself with --merges, with this removed you can still get the same
output with:
git log --pretty=fuller v5.10-rc7..v5.10 |
sed 's!/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/!/.../!g' |
git shortlog
Arguably we should do the same for the search-replacing of "[PATCH]"
at the beginning with "". That seems to be another relic of a bygone
era when linux.git patches would have their E-Mail subject lines
applied as-is by "git am" or whatever. But we documented that feature
in "git-shortlog(1)", and it seems more widely applicable than
something purely kernel-specific.

The checks for first_parent_only don't in fact belong to this module,
as the primary purpose of this flag is history traversal limiting, so
get it out of this module and rename the

diff_merges_default_to_enable()
to match new semantics.
