The code to keep track of what directory names are known to Git on
platforms with case insensitive filesystems can get confused upon
a hash collision between these pathnames and looped forever.
* kb/name-hash:
name-hash.c: fix endless loop with core.ignorecase=true
Update the index format documentation to mention the v4 format.
* nd/doc-index-format:
update-index: list supported idx versions and their features
read-cache.c: use INDEX_FORMAT_{LB,UB} in verify_hdr()
index-format.txt: mention of v4 is missing in some places
With core.ignorecase=true, name-hash.c builds a case insensitive index of
all tracked directories. Currently, the existing cache entry structures are
added multiple times to the same hashtable (with different name lengths and
hash codes). However, there's only one dir_next pointer, which gets
completely messed up in case of hash collisions. In the worst case, this
causes an endless loop if ce == ce->dir_next (see t7062).
Use a separate hashtable and separate structures for the directory index
so that each directory entry has its own next pointer. Use reference
counting to track which directory entry contains files.
There are only slight changes to the name-hash.c API:
- new free_name_hash() used by read_cache.c::discard_index()
- remove_name_hash() takes an additional index_state parameter
- index_name_exists() for a directory (trailing '/') may return a cache
entry that has been removed (CE_UNHASHED). This is not a problem as the
return value is only used to check if the directory exists (dir.c) or to
normalize casing of directory names (read-cache.c).
Getting rid of cache_entry.dir_next reduces memory consumption, especially
with core.ignorecase=false (which doesn't use that member at all).
With core.ignorecase=true, building the directory index is slightly faster
as we add / check the parent directory first (instead of going through all
directory levels for each file in the index). E.g. with WebKit (~200k
files, ~7k dirs), time spent in lazy_init_name_hash is reduced from 176ms
to 130ms.

Specifically the fields uid, gid, ctime, ino and dev are set to zero
by JGit. Other implementations, eg. Git in cygwin are allegedly also
somewhat incompatible with Git For Windows and on *nix platforms
the resolution of the timestamps may differ.
Any stat checking by git will then need to check content, which may
be very slow, particularly on Windows. Since mtime and size
is typically enough we should allow the user to tell git to avoid
checking these fields if they are set to zero in the index.
This change introduces a core.checkstat config option where the
the user can select to check all fields (default), or just size
and the whole second part of mtime (minimal).

These assignments comes from the very first commit e83c516 (Initial

Back then we did not die() when errors happened so correct errno was
required.
Since 5d1a5c0 ([PATCH] Better error reporting for "git status" -
2005-10-01), read_index_from() learned to die rather than just return
-1 and these assignments became irrelevant. Remove them.
While at it, move die_errno() next to xmmap() call because it's the
mmap's error code that we care about. Otherwise if close(fd); fails,
it could overwrite mmap's errno.

We should never need to write the null sha1 into an index
entry (short of the 1 in 2^160 chance that somebody actually
has content that hashes to it). If we attempt to do so, it
is much more likely that it is a bug, since we use the null
sha1 as a sentinel value to mean "not valid".
The presence of null sha1s in the index (which can come
from, among other things, "update-index --cacheinfo", or by
reading a corrupted tree) can cause problems for later
readers, because they cannot distinguish the literal null
sha1 from its use a sentinel value. For example, "git
diff-files" on such an entry would make it appear as if it
is stat-dirty, and until recently, the diff code assumed
such an entry meant that we should be diffing a working tree
file rather than a blob.
Ideally, we would stop such entries from entering even our
in-core index. However, we do sometimes legitimately add
entries with null sha1s in order to represent these sentinel
situations; simply forbidding them in add_index_entry breaks
a lot of the existing code. However, we can at least make
sure that our in-core sentinel representation never makes it
to disk.
To be thorough, we will test an attempt to add both a blob
and a submodule entry. In the former case, we might run into
problems anyway because we will be missing the blob object.
But in the latter case, we do not enforce connectivity
across gitlink entries, making this our only point of
enforcement. The current implementation does not care which
type of entry we are seeing, but testing both cases helps
future-proof the test suite in case that changes.

Even though the index can record pathnames longer than 1<<12 bytes,

* tg/maint-cache-name-compare:

It enhances readability, by making it more clear what
is a flag, and where the length is stored and make it clear
which functions use stages in comparisions and which only
use the length.
It also makes CE_NAMEMASK private, so that users don't

Because the entries are sorted by path, adjacent entries in the index tend
to share the leading components of them, and it makes sense to only store
the differences in later entries. In the v4 on-disk format of the index,

the end of the previous name, and the bytes to append to the result, to
come up with its name.

The code to estimate the in-memory size of the index based on its on-disk
representation is subtly wrong for certain architecture-dependent struct
layouts. Instead of fixing it, replace the code to keep the index entries
in a single large block of memory and allocate each entry separately
instead. This is both simpler and more flexible, as individual entries
can now be freed. Actually using that added flexibility is left for a
later patch.

estimate_cache_size() tries to guess how much memory is needed for the
in-memory representation of an index file. It does that by using the
file size, the number of entries and the difference of the sizes of the
on-disk and in-memory structs -- without having to check the length of
the name of each entry, which varies for each entry, but their sums are
the same no matter the representation.
Except there can be a difference. First of all, the size is really
calculated by ce_size and ondisk_ce_size based on offsetof(..., name),
not sizeof, which can be different. And entries are padded with 1 to 8
NULs at the end (after the variable name) to make their total length a
multiple of eight.
So in order to allocate enough memory to hold the index, change the
delta calculation to be based on offsetof(..., name) and round up to
the next multiple of eight.
On a 32-bit Linux, this delta was used before:
sizeof(struct cache_entry) == 72
sizeof(struct ondisk_cache_entry) == 64
---
8
The actual difference for an entry with a filename length of one was,
however (find the definitions are in cache.h):
offsetof(struct cache_entry, name) == 72
offsetof(struct ondisk_cache_entry, name) == 62
ce_size == (72 + 1 + 8) & ~7 == 80
ondisk_ce_size == (62 + 1 + 8) & ~7 == 64
---
16
So eight bytes less had been allocated for such entries. The new
formula yields the correct delta:
(72 - 62 + 7) & ~7 == 16
