Previously git-fetch.sh used `git cat-file -t` to determine if an
object referenced by a tag exists, and if so fetch that tag locally.
This was subtly broken during the port to C based builtin-fetch as
lookup_object() only works to locate an object if it was previously
accessed by the transport. Not all transports will access all
objects in this way, so tags were not always being fetched.
The rsync transport never loads objects into the internal object
table so automated tag following didn't work if rsync was used.
Automated tag following also didn't work on the native transport
if the new tag was behind the common point(s) negotiated between
the two ends of the connection as the tag's referrant would not
be loaded into the internal object table. Further the automated
tag following was broken with the HTTP commit walker if the new
tag's referrant was behind an existing ref, as the walker would
stop before loading the tag's referrant into the object table.
Switching to has_sha1_file() restores the original behavior from
the shell script by checking if the object exists in the ODB,
without relying on the state left behind by a transport.

The git wrapper executable always prepends the GIT_EXEC_PATH build
variable to the current PATH, so prepending "." to the PATH is not
enough to give precedence to the fake vi executable.
The --exec-path option allows to prepend a directory to PATH even before
GIT_EXEC_PATH (which is added anyway), so we can use that instead.

strchrnul() was introduced in glibc in April 1999 and included in
glibc-2.1. Checking for that version means the majority of all git
users would get to use the optimized version in glibc. Of the
remaining few some might get to use a slightly slower version
than necessary but probably not slower than what we have today.
Unfortunately, __GLIBC_PREREQ() macro was not available in glibc 2.1.1
which was short lived but already supported strchrnul(). Odd minority
users of that library needs to live with our compatibility inline version.

done
# create "deltifiable" objects in between big objects
for i in $(seq -w 2 2 64)
do
echo "$i $i $i" >> grow
cp grow file_$i
git add file_$i
rm file_$i
done

# create a pack with them
git commit -q -m "commit of big objects interlaced with small deltas"
git repack -a -d

As Jeff King remarked, format strings with duplicate placeholders can
be slow to expand, because each instance is calculated anew.
This patch makes use of the fact that format_commit_message() and its
helper functions only ever add stuff to the end of the strbuf. For
certain expensive placeholders, store the offset and length of their
expansion with the strbuf at the first occurrence. Later they
expansion result can simply be copied from there -- no malloc() or
strdup() required.
These certain placeholders are the abbreviated commit, tree and
parent hashes, as the search for a unique abbreviated hash is quite
costly. Here are the times for next (best of three runs):
$ time git log --pretty=format:%h >/dev/null
real 0m0.611s
user 0m0.404s
sys 0m0.204s
$ time git log --pretty=format:%h%h%h%h >/dev/null
real 0m1.206s
user 0m0.744s
sys 0m0.452s
And here those with this patch (and the previous two); the speedup
of the single placeholder case is just noise:
$ time git log --pretty=format:%h >/dev/null

As Jeff King pointed out, some placeholder expansions are related to
each other: the steps to calculate one go most of the way towards
calculating the other, too.
This patch makes format_commit_message() parse the commit message
only once, remembering the position of each item. This speeds up
handling of format strings containing multiple placeholders from the
set %s, %a*, %c*, %e, %b.
Here are the timings for the git version in next. The first one is
to estimate the overhead of the caching, the second one is taken
from http://svn.tue.mpg.de/tentakel/trunk/tentakel/Makefile as an
example of a format string found in the wild. The times are the
fastest of three consecutive runs in each case:
$ time git log --pretty=format:%e >/dev/null
real 0m0.381s
user 0m0.340s
sys 0m0.024s
$ time git log --pretty=format:"* %cd %cn%n%n%s%n%b" >/dev/null
real 0m0.623s
user 0m0.556s

And here the times with this patch:

If we were listing objects too then the objects were buffered in an
array only reachable from a stack allocated structure. When this
function returns that array would be leaked as nobody would have
a reference to it anymore.
Historically this hasn't been a problem as the primary user of
traverse_commit_list() (the noble git-rev-list) would terminate
as soon as the function was finished, thus allowing the operating
system to cleanup memory. However we have been leaking this data
in git-pack-objects ever since that program learned how to run the
revision listing internally, rather than relying on reading object
names from git-rev-list.
To better facilitate reuse of traverse_commit_list during other
builtin tools (such as git-fetch) we shouldn't leak temporary memory
like this and instead we need to clean up properly after ourselves.

Earlier in commit 0781b8a9b2
(add_file_to_index: skip rehashing if the cached stat already
matches), add_file_to_index() were taught not to re-add the path
if it already matches the index.
The change meant well, but was not executed quite right. It
used ie_modified() to see if the file on the work tree is really
different from the index, and skipped adding the contents if the
function says "not modified".
This was wrong. There are three possible comparison results
between the index and the file in the work tree:
- with lstat(2) we _know_ they are different. E.g. if the
length or the owner in the cached stat information is
different from the length we just obtained from lstat(2), we
can tell the file is modified without looking at the actual
contents.
- with lstat(2) we _know_ they are the same. The same length,
the same owner, the same everything (but this has a twist, as
described below).
- we cannot tell from lstat(2) information alone and need to go
to the filesystem to actually compare.
The last case arises from what we call 'racy git' situation,
that can be caused with this sequence:
$ echo hello >file
$ git add file
$ echo aeiou >file ;# the same length
If the second "echo" is done within the same filesystem
timestamp granularity as the first "echo", then the timestamp
recorded by "git add" and the timestamp we get from lstat(2)
will be the same, and we can mistakenly say the file is not
modified. The path is called 'racily clean'. We need to
reliably detect racily clean paths are in fact modified.
To solve this problem, when we write out the index, we mark the
index entry that has the same timestamp as the index file itself
(that is the time from the point of view of the filesystem) to
tell any later code that does the lstat(2) comparison not to
trust the cached stat info, and ie_modified() then actually goes
to the filesystem to compare the contents for such a path.
That's all good, but it should not be used for this "git add"
optimization, as the goal of "git add" is to actually update the
path in the index and make it stat-clean. With the false
optimization, we did _not_ cause any data loss (after all, what
we failed to do was only to update the cached stat information),
but it made the following sequence leave the file stat dirty:
$ echo hello >file
$ git add file
$ echo hello >file ;# the same contents
$ git add file
The solution is not to use ie_modified() which goes to the
filesystem to see if it is really clean, but instead use
ie_match_stat() with "assume racily clean paths are dirty"
option, to force re-adding of such a path.
There was another problem with "git add -u". The codepath
shares the same issue when adding the paths that are found to be
modified, but in addition, it asked "git diff-files" machinery
run_diff_files() function (which is "git diff-files") to list
the paths that are modified. But "git diff-files" machinery
uses the same ie_modified() call so that it does not report
racily clean _and_ actually clean paths as modified, which is
not what we want.
The patch allows the callers of run_diff_files() to pass the
same "assume racily clean paths are dirty" option, and makes
"git-add -u" codepath to use that option, to discover and re-add
racily clean _and_ actually clean paths.
We could further optimize on top of this patch to differentiate
the case where the path really needs re-adding (i.e. the content
of the racily clean entry was indeed different) and the case
where only the cached stat information needs to be refreshed
(i.e. the racily clean entry was actually clean), but I do not
think it is worth it.
This patch applies to maint and all the way up.

ce_match_stat() can be told:
(1) to ignore CE_VALID bit (used under "assume unchanged" mode)
and perform the stat comparison anyway;
(2) not to perform the contents comparison for racily clean
entries and report mismatch of cached stat information;
using its "option" parameter. Give them symbolic constants.
Similarly, run_diff_files() can be told not to report anything
on removed paths. Also give it a symbolic constant for that.

Some of the --pretty=format placeholders expansions are expensive to
calculate. This is made worse by the current code's use of
interpolate(), which requires _all_ placeholders are to be prepared
up front.
One way to speed this up is to check which placeholders are present
in the format string and to prepare only the expansions that are
needed. That still leaves the allocation overhead of interpolate().
Another way is to use a callback based approach together with the
strbuf library to keep allocations to a minimum and avoid string
copies. That's what this patch does. It introduces a new strbuf
function, strbuf_expand().
The function takes a format string, list of placeholder strings,
a user supplied function 'fn', and an opaque pointer 'context'
to tell 'fn' what thingy to operate on.
The function 'fn' is expected to accept a strbuf, a parsed
placeholder string and the 'context' pointer, and append the
interpolated value for the 'context' thingy, according to the
format specified by the placeholder.
Thanks to Pierre Habouzit for his suggestion to use strchrnul() and
the code surrounding its callsite. And thanks to Junio for most of
