0f4b6db3ba Handle atexit list internaly for unthreaded builds
Wrap atexit()s calls on unthreaded builds to handle callback list
internally.

This is needed because on unthreaded builds, asyncs inherits parent's
atexit() list, that gets run as soon as the async exit()s (and again at
the end of async's parent process). That led to remove temporary files
too early.

Also remove a by-atexit-callback guard against this kind of issue in
clone.c, as this patch makes it redundant.

Fixes test 5537 (temporary shallow file vanished before unpack-objects
could open it)

BTW remove an unused variable in shallow.c.

2113471478 pack-objects: turn off bitmaps when we split packs
If a pack.packSizeLimit is set, we may split the pack data
across multiple packfiles. This means we cannot generate
.bitmap files, as they require that all of the reachable
objects are in the same pack. We check that condition when
we are generating the list of objects to pack (and disable
bitmaps if we are not packing everything), but we forgot to
update it when we notice that we needed to split (which
doesn't happen until the actual write phase).

The resulting bitmaps are quite bogus (they mention entries
that do not exist in the pack!) and can cause a fetch or
push to send insufficient objects.

b1e757f363 pack-objects: double-check options before discarding objects
When we are given an expiration time like
--unpack-unreachable=2.weeks.ago, we avoid writing out old,
unreachable loose objects entirely, under the assumption
that running "prune" would simply delete them immediately
anyway. However, this is only valid if we computed the same
set of reachable objects as prune would.

In practice, this is the case, because only git-repack uses
the --unpack-unreachable option with an expiration, and it
always feeds as many objects into the pack as possible. But
we can double-check at runtime just to be sure.

c90f9e13ab repack: pack objects mentioned by the index
When we pack all objects, we use only the objects reachable
from references and reflogs. This misses any objects which
are reachable from the index, but not yet referenced.

By itself this isn't a big deal; the objects can remain
loose until they are actually used in a commit. However, it
does create a problem when we drop packed but unreachable
objects. We try to optimize out the writing of objects that
we will immediately prune, which means we must follow the
same rules as prune in determining what is reachable. And
prune uses the index for this purpose.

This is rather uncommon in practice, as objects in the index
would not usually have been packed in the first place. But
it could happen in a sequence like:

  1. You make a commit on a branch that references blob X.

  2. You repack, moving X into the pack.

  3. You delete the branch (and its reflog), so that X is
     unreferenced.

  4. You "git add" blob X so that it is now referenced only
     by the index.

  5. You repack again with git-gc. The pack-objects we
     invoke will see that X is neither referenced nor
     recent and not bother loosening it.

458a7e508c t5516: test pushing a tag of an otherwise unreferenced blob
It's not unreasonable to have a tag that points to a blob
that is not part of the normal history. We do this in
git.git to distribute gpg keys. However, we never explicitly
checked in our test suite that this actually works (i.e.,
that pack-objects actually sends the blob because of the tag
mentioning it).

It does in fact work fine, but a recent patch under
discussion broke this, and the test suite didn't notice.
Let's make the test suite more complete.

207394908e traverse_commit_list: support pending blobs/trees with paths
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.

eab335c46d mergetool: use more conservative temporary filenames
Avoid filenames with multiple dots so that overly-picky tools do
not misinterpret their extension.

Previously, foo/bar.ext in the worktree would result in e.g.

	./foo/bar.ext.BASE.1234.ext

This can be improved by having only a single .ext and using
underscore instead of dot so that the extension cannot be
misinterpreted.  The resulting path becomes:

	./foo/bar_BASE_1234.ext

b12d04503b mergetools/meld: make usage of --output configurable and more robust
Older versions of meld listed --output in `meld --help`.
Newer versions only mention `meld [OPTIONS...]`.
Improve the checks to catch these newer versions.

Add a `mergetool.meld.hasOutput` configuration to allow
overriding the heuristic.

9e0c3c4fcd make add_object_array_with_context interface more sane
When you resolve a sha1, you can optionally keep any context
found during the resolution, including the path and mode of
a tree entry (e.g., when looking up "HEAD:subdir/file.c").

The add_object_array_with_context function lets you then
attach that context to an entry in a list. Unfortunately,
the interface for doing so is horrible. The object_context
structure is large and most object_array users do not use
it. Therefore we keep a pointer to the structure to avoid
burdening other users too much. But that means when we do
use it that we must allocate the struct ourselves. And the
struct contains a fixed PATH_MAX-sized buffer, which makes
this wholly unsuitable for any large arrays.

We can observe that there is only a single user of the
"with_context" variant: builtin/grep.c. And in that use
case, the only element we care about is the path. We can
therefore store only the path as a pointer (the context's
mode field was redundant with the object_array_entry itself,
and nobody actually cared about the surrounding tree). This
still requires a strdup of the pathname, but at least we are
only consuming the minimum amount of memory for each string.

We can also handle the copying ourselves in
add_object_array_*, and free it as appropriate in
object_array_release_entry.
