f1068efefe sha1_file: drop experimental GIT_USE_LOOKUP search
Long ago in 628522ec14 (sha1-lookup: more memory efficient
search in sorted list of SHA-1, 2007-12-29) we added
sha1_entry_pos(), a binary search that uses the uniform
distribution of sha1s to scale the selection of mid-points.
As this was a performance experiment, we tied it to the
GIT_USE_LOOKUP environment variable and never enabled it by
default.

This code was successful in reducing the number of steps in
each search. But the overhead of the scaling ends up making
it slower when the cache is warm. Here are best-of-five
timings for running rev-list on linux.git, which will have
to look up every object:

  $ time git rev-list --objects --all >/dev/null
  real	0m35.357s
  user	0m35.016s
  sys	0m0.340s

  $ time GIT_USE_LOOKUP=1 git rev-list --objects --all >/dev/null
  real	0m37.364s
  user	0m37.045s
  sys	0m0.316s

The USE_LOOKUP version might have more benefit on a cold
cache, as the time to fault in each page would dominate. But
that would be for a single lookup. In practice, most
operations tend to look up many objects, and the whole pack
.idx will end up warm.

It's possible that the code could be better optimized to
compete with a naive binary search for the warm-cache case,
and we could have the best of both worlds. But over the
years nobody has done so, and this is largely dead code that
is rarely run outside of the test suite. Let's drop it in
the name of simplicity.

This lets us remove sha1_entry_pos() entirely, as the .idx
lookup code was the only caller.  Note that sha1-lookup.c
still contains sha1_pos(), which differs from
sha1_entry_pos() in two ways:

  - it has a different interface; it uses a function pointer
    to access sha1 entries rather than a size/offset pair
    describing the table's memory layout

  - it only scales the initial selection of "mi", rather
    than each iteration of the search

We can't get rid of this function, as it's called from
several places. It may be that we could replace it with a
simple binary search, but that's out of scope for this patch
(and would need benchmarking).

0b006014c8 hashcmp: use memcmp instead of open-coded loop
In 1a812f3a70 (hashcmp(): inline memcmp() by hand to
optimize, 2011-04-28), it was reported that an open-coded
loop outperformed memcmp() for comparing sha1s.

Discussion[1] a few years later in 2013 showed that this
depends on your libc's version of memcmp(). In particular,
glibc 2.13 optimized their memcmp around 2011. Here are
current timings with glibc 2.24 (best-of-five, on
linux.git):

  [before this patch, open-coded]
  $ time git rev-list --objects --all
  real	0m35.357s
  user	0m35.016s
  sys	0m0.340s

  [after this patch, memcmp]
  real	0m32.930s
  user	0m32.630s
  sys	0m0.300s

Now that we've had 6 years for that version of glibc to
make its way onto people's machines, it's worth revisiting
our benchmarks and switching to memcmp().

It may be that there are other non-glibc systems where
memcmp() isn't as well optimized. But since our single data
point in favor of open-coding was on a now-ancient glibc, we
should probably assume the system memcmp is good unless
proven otherwise. We may end up with a SLOW_MEMCMP Makefile
knob, but we can hold off on that until we actually find
such a system in practice.

6355a76802 sha1_file: avoid comparison if no packed hash matches the first byte
find_pack_entry_one() uses the fan-out table of pack indexes to find out
which entries match the first byte of the searched hash and does a
binary search on this subset of the main index table.

If there are no matching entries then lo and hi will have the same
value.  The binary search still starts and compares the hash of the
following entry (which has a non-matching first byte, so won't cause any
trouble), or whatever comes after the sorted list of entries.

The probability of that stray comparison matching by mistake is low, but
let's not take any chances and check when entering the binary search
loop if we're actually done already.

4c7fda8fc1 t4062: use less than 256 repetitions in regex
OpenBSD's regex library has a repetition limit (RE_DUP_MAX) of 255.
That's the minimum acceptable value according to POSIX.  In t4062 we use
4096 repetitions in the test "-G matches", though, causing it to fail.
Combine two repetition operators, both less than 256, to arrive at 4096
zeros instead of using a single one, to fix the test on OpenBSD.

'git add --chmod=[+-]x changes index with already added file' can fail
if xfoo3 is still present as a symlink from a previous test and deletes
it with rm(1).  That still leaves it present in the index, which causes
the test to fail if POSIXPERM is not defined.  Get rid of it by calling
"git reset --hard" as well, as 76e368c378 already mentioned in passing.

8957661378 treewide: deprecate git_config_maybe_bool, use git_parse_maybe_bool
The only difference between these is that the former takes an argument
`name` which it ignores completely. Still, the callers are quite careful
to provide reasonable values for it.

Once in-flight topics have landed, we should be able to remove
git_config_maybe_bool. In the meantime, document it as deprecated in the
technical documentation. While at it, document git_parse_maybe_bool.

4666741823 config: make git_{config,parse}_maybe_bool equivalent
Both of these act on a string `value` which they parse as a boolean. The
"parse"-variant was introduced as a replacement for the "config"-variant
which for historical reasons takes an unused argument `name`. That it
was intended as a replacement is not obvious from commit 9a549d43
("config.c: rename git_config_maybe_bool_text and export it as
git_parse_maybe_bool", 2015-08-19), but that is what the background on
the mailing list suggests [1].

However, these two functions do not parse `value` in exactly the same
way. In particular, git_config_maybe_bool accepts integers (0 for false,
non-0 for true). This means there are two slightly different definitions
of "maybe_bool" in the code-base, and that every time a call to
git_config_maybe_bool is changed to use git_parse_maybe_bool, it risks
breaking someone's workflow.

Move the implementation of "config" into "parse" and make the latter a
trivial wrapper.

This also fixes the only user of git_parse_maybe_bool, `git push
--signed=..`.

9be04d64c9 config: introduce git_parse_maybe_bool_text
Commit 9a549d43 ("config.c: rename git_config_maybe_bool_text and export
it as git_parse_maybe_bool", 2015-08-19) intended git_parse_maybe_bool
to be a replacement for git_config_maybe_bool, which could then be
retired. That is not obvious from the commit message, but that is what
the background on the mailing list suggests [1].

However, git_{config,parse}_maybe_bool do not handle all input the same.
Before the rename, that was by design and there is a caller in config.c
which requires git_parse_maybe_bool to behave exactly as it does.

Prepare for the next patch by renaming git_parse_maybe_bool to ..._text
and reimplementing the first one as a simple call to the second one. Let
the existing users in config.c use ..._text, since it does what they
need.

c4b71a7782 t5334: document that git push --signed=1 does not work
When accepting booleans as command-line or config options throughout
Git, there are several documented synonyms for true and false.
However, one particular user is slightly broken: `git push --signed=..`
does not understand the integer synonyms for true and false.

This is hardly wanted. The --signed option has a different notion of
boolean than all other arguments and config options, including the
config option corresponding to it, push.gpgSign.

Add a test documenting the failure to handle --signed=1.
