Git's test suite is excruciatingly slow on Windows, mainly due to the
fact that it executes a lot of shell script code, and that's simply not
native to Windows.
To help with that, we established the pattern where the artifacts are
first built in one job, and then multiple test jobs run in parallel
using the artifacts built in the first job.
We take pains in transferring only the build outputs, and letting
`actions/checkout` fill in the rest of the files.
One major downside of that strategy is that the test jobs might fail to
check out the intended revision (e.g. because the branch has been
updated while the build was running, as is frequently the case with the
`seen` branch).
Let's transfer also the files tracked by Git, and skip the checkout step
in the test jobs.

Move away from the "struct ref_list" in bundle.c in favor of the
almost identical string-list.c API.
That API fits this use-case perfectly, but did not exist in its
current form when this code was added in 2e0afafebd (Add git-bundle:
move objects and references by archive, 2007-02-22), with hindsight we
could have used the path-list API, which later got renamed to
string-list. See 8fd2cb4069 (Extract helper bits from
c-merge-recursive work, 2006-07-25)
We need to change "name" to "string" and "oid" to "util" to make this
conversion, but other than that the APIs are pretty much identical for
what bundle.c made use of.
Let's also replace the memset(..,0,...) pattern with a more idiomatic
"INIT" macro, and finally add a *_release() function so to free the
allocated memory.
Before this the add_to_ref_list() would leak memory, now e.g. "bundle
list-heads" reports no memory leaks at all under valgrind.
In the bundle_header_init() function we're using a clever trick to
memcpy() what we'd get from the corresponding
BUNDLE_HEADER_INIT. There is a concurrent series to make use of that
pattern more generally, see [1].

Fix a memory leak from the prefix_filename() function introduced with
its use in 3b754eedd5 (bundle: use prefix_filename with bundle path,
2017-03-20).
As noted in that commit the leak was intentional as a part of being
sloppy about freeing resources just before we exit, I'm changing this
because I'll be fixing other memory leaks in the bundle API (including
the library version) in subsequent commits. It's easier to reason
about those fixes if valgrind runs cleanly at the end without any
leaks whatsoever.
An earlier version of this change[1] went out of its way to not leak
memory on the die() codepaths here, but doing so will only avoid
reports of potential leaks under heap-only leak trackers such as
valgrind, not the SANITIZE=leak mode.
Avoiding those leaks as well might be useful to enable us to run
cleanly under the likes of valgrind in the future. But for now the
relative verbosity of the resulting code, and the fact that we don't
have some valgrind or SANITIZE=leak mode as part of our CI (it's only
run ad-hoc, see [2]), means we're not worrying about that for now.

Remove the dir_init() function and replace it with a DIR_INIT

We have a custom match_pattern_list() function which we use for matching
test names (like "t1234") against glob-like patterns (like "t1???") for
$GIT_SKIP_TESTS, --verbose-only, etc.
Those patterns may have multiple whitespace-separated elements (e.g.,
"t0* t1234 t5?78"). The callers of match_pattern_list thus pass the
strings unquoted, so that the shell does the usual field-splitting into
separate arguments.
But this also means the shell will do the usual globbing for each
argument, which can result in us seeing an expansion based on what's in
the filesystem, rather than the real pattern. For example, if I have the
path "t5000" in the filesystem, and you feed the pattern "t?000", that
_should_ match the string "t0000", but it won't after the shell has
expanded it to "t5000".
This has been a bug ever since that function was introduced. But it
didn't usually trigger since we typically use the function inside the
trash directory, which has a very limited set of files that are unlikely
to match. It became a lot easier to trigger after edc23840b0 (test-lib:
bring $remove_trash out of retirement, 2021-05-10), because now we match
$GIT_SKIP_TESTS before even entering the trash directory. So the t5000
example above can be seen with:
GIT_SKIP_TESTS=t?000 ./t0000-basic.sh
which should skip all tests but doesn't.
We can fix this by using "set -f" to ask the shell not to glob (which is
in POSIX, so should hopefully be portable enough). We only want to do
this in a subshell (to avoid polluting the rest of the script), which
means we need to get the whole string intact into the match_pattern_list
function by quoting it. Arguably this is a good idea anyway, since it
makes it much more obvious that we intend to split, and it's not simply
sloppy scripting.

Directory rename detection can cause transitive renames, e.g. if the two
different sides of history each do one half of:
A/file -> B/file
B/ -> C/
then directory rename detection transitively renames to give us
A/file -> C/file
However, when C/ == A/, note that this gives us
A/file -> A/file.
merge-recursive assumed that any rename D -> E would have D != E. While
that is almost always true, the above is a special case where it is not.
So we cannot do things like delete the rename source, we cannot assume
that a file existing at path E implies a rename/add conflict and we have
to be careful about what stages end up in the output.
This change feels a bit hackish. It took me surprisingly many hours to
find, and given merge-recursive's design causing it to attempt to
enumerate all combinations of edge and corner cases with special code
for each combination, I'm worried there are other similar fixes needed
elsewhere if we can just come up with the right special testcase.
Perhaps an audit would rule it out, but I have not the energy.
merge-recursive deserves to die, and since it is on its way out anyway,
fixing this particular bug narrowly will have to be good enough.

Since the default for merge.directoryRenames is conflict, this results

What if C/ is A/, though? In such a case, the transitive rename would
give us A/file, the original name we started with. Logically, having
an error message with B/file vs. A/file should be fine, as should
leaving the file where it started. But the logic in both

Git grep allows combining two patterns with --and. It checks and
reports if the second pattern is missing when compiling the expression.
A missing first pattern, however, is only reported later at match time.
Thus no error is returned if no matching is done, e.g. because no file
matches the also given pathspec.
When that happens we get an expression tree with an GREP_NODE_AND node
and a NULL pointer to the missing left child. free_pattern_expr()
tries to dereference it during the cleanup at the end, which results
in a segmentation fault.

When writing a new multi-pack index, Git tries to reuse as much of the
data from an existing MIDX as possible, like object offsets. This is
done to avoid re-opening a bunch of *.idx files unnecessarily, but can
lead to problems if the data we are reusing is corrupt.
That's because we'll blindly reuse data from an existing MIDX without
checking its trailing checksum for validity. So if there is memory
corruption while writing a MIDX, or disk corruption in the intervening
period between writing and reuse, we'll blindly propagate those bad
values forward.
Suppose we experience a memory corruption while writing a MIDX such that
we write an incorrect object offset (or alternatively, the disk corrupts
the data after being written, but before being reused). Then when we go
to write a new MIDX, we'll reuse the bad object offset without checking
its validity. This means that the MIDX we just wrote is broken, but its
trailing checksum is in-tact, since we never bothered to look at the
values before writing.
In the above, a "git multi-pack-index verify" would have caught the
problem before writing, but writing a new MIDX wouldn't have noticed
anything wrong, blindly carrying forward the corrupt offset.
Individual pack indexes check their validity by verifying the crc32
attached to each entry when carrying data forward during a repack.
We could solve this problem for MIDXs in the same way, but individual
crc32's don't make much sense, since their entries are so small.
Likewise, checking the whole file on every read may be prohibitively
expensive if a repository has a lot of objects, packs, or both.
But we can check the trailing checksum when reusing an existing MIDX
when writing a new one. And a corrupt MIDX need not stop us from writing
a new one, since we can just avoid reusing the existing one at all and
pretend as if we are writing a new MIDX from scratch.

In our continuous builds, Windows is the odd cookie that requires a
complete development environment to be downloaded because there is no
suitable one installed by default on Windows.
Side note: technically, there _is_ a development environment present in
GitHub Actions' build agents: MSYS2. But it differs from Git for
Windows' SDK in subtle points, unfortunately enough so to prevent Git's
test suite from running without failures.
Traditionally, we support downloading this environment (which we
nicknamed `git-sdk-64-minimal`) via a PowerShell scriptlet that accesses
the build artifacts of a dedicated Azure Pipeline (which packages a tiny
subset of the full Git for Windows SDK, containing just enough to build
Git and run its test suite).
This PowerShell script is unfortunately not very robust and sometimes
fails due to network issues.
Of course, we could add code to detect that situation, wait a little,
try again, if it fails again wait a little longer, lather, rinse and
repeat.
Instead of doing all of this in Git's own `.github/workflows/`, though,
let's offload this logic to the new GitHub Action at
https://github.com/marketplace/actions/setup-git-for-windows-sdk
This Action not only downloads and extracts git-sdk-64-minimal _outside_
the worktree (making it no longer necessary to meddle with
`.gitignore` or `.git/info/exclude`), it also adds the `bash.exe` to the
`PATH` and sets the environment variable `MSYSTEM` (an implementation
detail that Git's workflow should never have needed to know about).
This allows us to convert all those funny PowerShell tasks that wanted
to call git-sdk-64-minimal's `bash.exe`: they all are now regular `bash`
scriptlets.
This finally lets us get rid of the funny quoting and escaping where we
had to pay attention not only to quote and escape the Bash scriptlets
properly, but also to add a second level of escaping (with backslashes
for double quotes and backticks for dollar signs) to stop PowerShell
from doing unintended things.
Further, this Action uses a fast caching strategy native to GitHub
Actions that should accelerate the download across CI runs:
git-sdk-64-minimal is usually updated once per 24h, and needs to be
cached only once within that period. Caching it (unfortunately only on
a per-branch basis) speeds up the download step, and makes it much more
robust at the same time by virtue of accessing a cache location that is
closer in the network topology.
With this we can drop the home-rolled caching where we try to accelerate
the test phase by uploading git-sdk-64-minimal as a workflow artifact
after using it to build Git, and then download it as workflow artifact
in the test phase.
Even better: the `vs-test` job no longer needs to depend on the
`windows-build` job. The only reason it depended on it was to ensure
that the `git-sdk-64-minimal` workflow artifact was available.

When we load the ref decorations, we parse the object pointed to by each
ref in order to get a "struct object". This is unnecessarily expensive;
we really only need the object struct, and don't even look at the parsed
contents. The exception is tags, which we do need to peel.
We can improve this by looking up the object type first (which is much
cheaper), and skipping the parse entirely for non-tags. This increases
the work slightly for annotated tags (which now do a type lookup _and_ a
parse), but decreases it a lot for other types. On balance, this seems
to be a good tradeoff.
In my git.git clone, with ~2k refs, most of which are branches, the time
to run "git log -1 --decorate" drops from 34ms to 11ms. Even on my
linux.git clone, which contains mostly tags and only a handful of
branches, the time drops from 30ms to 19ms. And on a more extreme
real-world case with ~220k refs, mostly non-tags, the time drops from
2.6s to 650ms.
That command is a lop-sided example, of course, because it does as
little non-loading work as possible. But it does show the absolute time
improvement. Even in something like a full "git log --decorate" on that
extreme repo, we'd still be saving 2s of CPU time.
Ideally we could push this even further, and avoid parsing even tags, by
relying on the packed-refs "peel" optimization (which we could do by
calling peel_iterated_oid() instead of peeling manually). But we can't
do that here. The packed-refs file only stores the bottom-layer of the
peel (so in a "tag->tag->commit" chain, it stores only the commit as the
peel result). But the decoration code wants to peel the layers
individually, annotating the middle layers of the chain.
If the packed-refs file ever learns to store all of the peeled layers,
then we could switch to it. Or even if it stored a flag to indicate the
peel was not multi-layer (because most of them aren't), then we could
use it most of the time and fall back to a manual peel for the rare
cases.

In some cases it's useful for efficiency reasons to get the type of an
object before deciding whether to parse it, but we still want an object
struct. E.g., in reachable.c, bitmaps give us the type, but we just want
to mark flags on each object. Likewise, we may loop over every object
and only parse tags in order to peel them; checking the type first lets
us avoid parsing the non-tags.
But our lookup_blob(), etc, functions make getting an object struct
annoying: we have to call the right function for every type. And we
cannot just use the generic lookup_object(), because it only returns an
already-seen object; it won't allocate a new object struct.
Let's provide a function that dispatches to the correct lookup_*
function based on a run-time type. In fact, reachable.c already has such
a helper, so we'll just make that public.
I did change the return type from "void *" to "struct object *". While
the former is a clever way to avoid casting inside the function, it's
less safe and less informative to people reading the function
declaration.
The next commit will add a new caller.

If no --decorate option is given, we default to auto-decoration. And
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"
on my git.git clone (with ~2k refs) from 34ms to 7ms. On a much more
extreme real-world repository (with ~220k refs), it goes from 2.5s to
4ms.

The comment only mentions "notes", but there are more fields now (and
I'm about to add another). Let's make it more general, and stick the
struct next to the function to make the list of possibilities obvious.
While we're touching this comment, let's also mention the behavior of
NULL, which some callers rely on (though in the long run, this global is
pretty nasty and probably should get moved into rev_info).

Over time when parts of submodule have been ported from shell to
builtin, many instances of the submodule helper have been added.
Also added with them are some unnecessary option passing
logic that are based on the `prefix` shell variable which never
gets set in their code flows.
On analysis, the only shell functions which have a valid usage
for the `prefix` shell variable are:
- cmd_update: which is the only function which sets the variable
and thus uses it properly
- cmd_init: which uses the variable via a call from cmd_update
So, remove the unnecessary option parsing logic based on the `prefix`
shell variable.

Git for Windows is compiled with a runtime prefix, and that runtime
prefix is typically `C:/Program Files/Git/mingw64`. As we want the
system gitconfig to live in the sibling directory `etc`, we define the
relative path as `../etc/gitconfig`.
However, as reported by Philip Oakley, the output of `git config
--show-origin --system -l` looks rather ugly, as it shows the path as
`file:C:/Program Files/Git/mingw64/../etc/gitconfig`, i.e. with the
`mingw64/../` part.
By normalizing the path, we get a prettier path.

Currently, when Git for Windows is built with CMake, the system Git config is
expected in a different location than when building via `make`: the former
expects it to be in `<runtime-prefix>/mingw64/etc/gitconfig`, the latter in
`<runtime-prefix>/etc/gitconfig`.
Because of this, things like `git clone` do not work correctly (because cURL is
no longer able to find its certificate bundle that it needs to validate HTTPS
certificates). See the full bug report and discussion here:
https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/3071#issuecomment-789261386.
This commit aligns the CMake-based build by mimicking what is already done in

Git for Windows' prefix is `/mingw64/` (or `/mingw32/` for 32-bit
versions), therefore the system config is located at the clunky location
`C:\Program Files\Git\mingw64\etc\gitconfig`.
This moves the system config into a more logical location: the `mingw64`
part of `C:\Program Files\Git\mingw64\etc\gitconfig` never made sense,
as it is a mere implementation detail. Let's skip the `mingw64` part and
move this to `C:\Program Files\Git\etc\gitconfig`.
Side note: in the rare (and not recommended) case a user chooses to
install 32-bit Git for Windows on a 64-bit system, the path will of
course be `C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\etc\gitconfig`.
Background: During the Git for Windows v1.x days, the system config was
located at `C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\etc\gitconfig`. With Git for
Windows v2.x, it moved to `C:\Program Files\Git\mingw64\gitconfig` (or
`C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\mingw32\gitconfig`). Rather than fixing it
back then, we tried to introduce a "Windows-wide" config, but that never
caught on.
Likewise, we move the system `gitattributes` into the same directory.
Obviously, we are cautious to do this only for the known install
locations `/mingw64` and `/mingw32`; If anybody wants to override that
while building their version of Git (e.g. via `make prefix=$HOME`), we
leave the default location of the system config and gitattributes alone.

We query `TIOCGWINSZ` in Git to determine the correct value for
`COLUMNS`, and then set that environment variable.
If `TIOCGWINSZ` is not available, we fall back to the hard-coded value
80 _and still_ set the environment variable.
On Windows this is a problem. The reason is that Git for
Windows uses a version of `less` that relies on the MSYS2 runtime to
interact with the pseudo terminal (typically inside a MinTTY window,
which is also aware of the MSYS2 runtime). Both MinTTY and `less.exe`
interact with that pseudo terminal via `ioctl()` calls (which the MSYS2
runtime emulates even if there is no such thing on Windows).
Since https://github.com/gwsw/less/commit/bb0ee4e76c2, `less` prefers
the `COLUMNS` variable over asking ncurses itself.
But `git.exe` itself is _not_ aware of the MSYS2 runtime, or for that
matter of that pseudo terminal, and has no way to call `ioctl()` or
`TIOCGWINSZ`.
Therefore, `git.exe` will fall back to hard-coding 80 columns, no matter
what the actual terminal size is.
But `less.exe` is totally able to interact with the MSYS2 runtime and
would not actually require Git's help (which actually makes things
worse here). So let's not override `COLUMNS` on Windows.
Let's just not set `COLUMNS` unless we managed to query the actual value
from the terminal.
This fixes https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/3235

This is one step towards supporting partial clone submodules.
Even after this patch, we will still lack partial clone submodules
support, primarily because a lot of Git code that accesses submodule
objects does so by adding their object stores as alternates, meaning
that any lazy fetches that would occur in the submodule would be done
based on the config of the superproject, not of the submodule. This also
prevents testing of the functionality in this patch by user-facing
commands. So for now, test this mechanism using a test helper.
Besides that, there is some code that uses the wrapper functions
like has_promisor_remote(). Those will need to be checked to see if they
could support the non-wrapper functions instead (and thus support any
repository, not just the_repository).

14111fc492 ("git: submodule honor -c credential.* from command line",
2016-03-01) taught Git to pass through the GIT_CONFIG_PARAMETERS
environment variable when invoking a subprocess on behalf of a
submodule. But when d8d77153ea ("config: allow specifying config entries
via envvar pairs", 2021-01-15) introduced support for GIT_CONFIG_COUNT
(and its associated GIT_CONFIG_KEY_? and GIT_CONFIG_VALUE_?), the
subprocess mechanism wasn't updated to also pass through these
variables.
Since they are conceptually the same (d8d77153ea was written to address
a shortcoming of GIT_CONFIG_PARAMETERS), update the submodule subprocess
mechanism to also pass through GIT_CONFIG_COUNT.

Move repository_format_partial_clone, which is currently a global
variable, into struct repository. (Full support for per-repository
partial clone config will be done in a subsequent commit - this is split
into its own commit because of the extent of the changes needed.)
The new repo-specific variable cannot be set in
check_repository_format_gently() (as is currently), because that
function does not know which repo it is operating on (or even whether
the value is important); therefore this responsibility is delegated to
the outermost caller that knows. Of all the outermost callers that know
(found by looking at all functions that call clear_repository_format()),
I looked at those that either read from the main Git directory or write
into a struct repository. These callers have been modified accordingly
(write to the_repository in the former case and write to the given
struct repository in the latter case).

Add missing tests for --remotes, --list and --merge-base. These are
not exhaustive, but better than the nothing we have now.
There were some tests for this command added in f76412ed6d ([PATCH]
Add 'git show-branch'., 2005-08-21) has never been properly tested,
namely for the --all option in t6432-merge-recursive-space-options.sh,
and some of --merge-base and --independent in t6010-merge-base.sh.
This fixes a few more blind spots, but there's still a lot of behavior
that's not tested for.
These new tests show the odd (and possibly unintentional) behavior of
--merge-base with one argument, and how its output is the same as "git
merge-base" with N bases in this particular case. See the test added
in f621a8454d (git-merge-base/git-show-branch --merge-base:

the same.

Change the colored output introduced in ab07ba2a24 (show-branch: color
the commit status signs, 2009-04-22) to not color and reset each
individual space character we use for padding. The intent is to color
just the "!", "+" etc. characters.
This makes the output easier to test, so let's do that now. The test
would be much more verbose without a color/reset for each space
character. Since the coloring cycles through colors we previously had
a "rainbow of space characters".
In theory this breaks things for anyone who's relying on the exact
colored output of show-branch, in practice I'd think anyone parsing it
isn't actively turning on the colored output.
