1e7ba0f9ca fetch-pack: match refs exactly
When we are determining the list of refs to fetch via
fetch-pack, we have two sets of refs to compare: those on
the remote side, and a "match" list of things we want to
fetch. We iterate through the remote refs alphabetically,
seeing if each one is wanted by the "match" list.

Since def88e9 (Commit first cut at "git-fetch-pack",
2005-07-04), we have used the "path_match" function to do a
suffix match, where a remote ref is considered wanted if
any of the "match" elements is a suffix of the remote
refname.

This enables callers of fetch-pack to specify unqualified
refs and have them matched up with remote refs (e.g., ask
for "A" and get remote's "refs/heads/A"). However, if you
provide a fully qualified ref, then there are corner cases
where we provide the wrong answer. For example, given a
remote with two refs:

   refs/foo/refs/heads/master
   refs/heads/master

asking for "refs/heads/master" will first match
"refs/foo/refs/heads/master" by the suffix rule, and we will
erroneously fetch it instead of refs/heads/master.

As it turns out, all callers of fetch_pack do provide
fully-qualified refs for the match list. There are two ways
fetch_pack can get match lists:

  1. Through the transport code (i.e., via git-fetch)

  2. On the command-line of git-fetch-pack

In the first case, we will always be providing the names of
fully-qualified refs from "struct ref" objects. We will have
pre-matched those ref objects already (since we have to
handle more advanced matching, like wildcard refspecs), and
are just providing a list of the refs whose objects we need.

In the second case, users could in theory be providing
non-qualified refs on the command-line. However, the
fetch-pack documentation claims that refs should be fully
qualified (and has always done so since it was written in
2005).

Let's change this path_match call to simply check for string
equality, matching what the callers of fetch_pack are
expecting.

afe7c5ff1f drop "match" parameter from get_remote_heads
The get_remote_heads function reads the list of remote refs
during git protocol session. It dates all the way back to
def88e9 (Commit first cut at "git-fetch-pack", 2005-07-04).
At that time, the idea was to come up with a list of refs we
were interested in, and then filter the list as we got it
from the remote side.

Later, 1baaae5 (Make maximal use of the remote refs,
2005-10-28) stopped filtering at the get_remote_heads layer,
letting us use the non-matching refs to find common history.

As a result, all callers now simply pass an empty match
list (and any future callers will want to do the same). So
let's drop these now-useless parameters.

8d9c50105f Change check_ref_format() to take a flags argument
Change check_ref_format() to take a flags argument that indicates what
is acceptable in the reference name (analogous to "git
check-ref-format"'s "--allow-onelevel" and "--refspec-pattern").  This
is more convenient for callers and also fixes a failure in the test
suite (and likely elsewhere in the code) by enabling "onelevel" and
"refspec-pattern" to be allowed independently of each other.

Also rename check_ref_format() to check_refname_format() to make it
obvious that it deals with refnames rather than references themselves.

114a6a889f refactor refs_from_alternate_cb to allow passing extra data
The foreach_alt_odb function triggers a callback for each
alternate object db we have, with room for a single void
pointer as data. Currently, we always call refs_from_alternate_cb
as the callback function, and then pass another callback (to
receive each ref individually) as the void pointer.

This has two problems:

  1. C technically forbids stuffing a function pointer into
     a "void *". In practice, this probably doesn't matter
     on any architectures git runs on, but it never hurts to
     follow the letter of the law.

  2. There is no room for an extra data pointer. Indeed, the
     alternate_ref_fn that refs_from_alternate_cb calls
     takes a void* for data, but we always pass it NULL.

Instead, let's properly stuff our function pointer into a
data struct, which also leaves room for an extra
caller-supplied data pointer. And to keep things simple for
existing callers, let's make a for_each_alternate_ref
function that takes care of creating the extra struct.

ea5f220821 fetch: avoid repeated commits in mark_complete
We add every local ref to a list so that we can mark them
and all of their ancestors back to a certain cutoff point.
However, if some refs point to the same commit, we will end
up adding them to the list many times.

Furthermore, since commit_lists are stored as linked lists,
we must do an O(n) traversal of the list in order to find
the right place to insert each commit. This makes building
the list O(n^2) in the number of refs.

For normal repositories, this isn't a big deal. We have a
few hundreds refs at most, and most of them are unique. But
consider an "alternates" repo that serves as an object
database for many other similar repos. For reachability, it
needs to keep a copy of the refs in each child repo. This
means it may have a large number of refs, many of which
point to the same commits.

By noting commits we have already added to the list, we can
shrink the size of "n" in such a repo to the number of
unique commits, which is on the order of what a normal repo
would contain (it's actually more than a normal repo, since child repos
may have branches at different states, but in practice it tends
to be much smaller than the list with duplicates).

Here are the results on one particular giant repo
(containing objects for all Rails forks on GitHub):

44d8dc54e7 Fix potential local deadlock during fetch-pack
The fetch-pack/upload-pack protocol relies on the underlying transport
(local pipe or TCP socket) to have enough slack to allow one window worth
of data in flight without blocking the writer.  Traditionally we always
relied on being able to have two windows of 32 "have"s in flight (roughly
3k bytes) to stream.

The recent "progressive-stride" change allows "fetch-pack" to send up to
1024 "have"s without reading any response from "upload-pack".  The
outgoing pipe of "upload-pack" can be clogged with many ACK and NAK that
are unread, while "fetch-pack" is still stuffing its outgoing pipe with
more "have"s, leading to a deadlock.

Revert the change unless we are in stateless rpc (aka smart-http) mode, as
using a large window full of "have"s is still a good way to help reduce
the number of back-and-forth, and there is no buffering issue there (it is
strictly "ping-pong" without an overlap).

8e9182e091 enable "no-done" extension only when fetching over smart-http
When 'no-done' protocol extension is used, the upload-pack (i.e. the
server side) process stops listening to the fetch-pack after issuing the
final NAK, and starts sending the generated pack data back, but there may
be more "have" send by the latter in flight that the fetch-pack is
expecting to be responded with ACK/NAK.  This will typically result in a
deadlock (both will block on write that the other end never reads) or
SIGPIPE on the fetch-pack end (upload-pack will finish writing a small
pack and goes away).

Disable it unless fetch-pack is running under smart-http, where there is
no such streaming issue.

761ecf0bc7 fetch-pack: Implement no-done capability
If enabled on the connection "multi_ack_detailed no-done" as a
pair allows the remote upload-pack process to send a PACK down
to the client as soon as a "ACK %s ready" message was also sent.

Over git:// and ssh:// where a bi-directional stream is in place
this has very little difference over the classical version that
waits for the client to send a "done\n" line by itself.  It does
slightly reduce the latency involved to start the pack stream as
there is one less round-trip from client->server required.

Over smart HTTP this avoids needing to send a final RPC that has
all of the prior common objects.  Instead the server is able to
return a pack as soon as its ready to.  For many common users the
smart HTTP fetch is now just 2 requests: GET .../info/refs, and
a POST .../git-upload-pack to not only negotiate but also receive
the pack stream.  Only users who have more than 32 local unshared
commits with the remote will need additional requests to negotiate
a common merge base.

f2cba9299b fetch-pack: Finish negotation if remote replies "ACK %s ready"
If multi_ack_detailed was selected in the protocol capabilities
(both client and server are >= Git 1.6.6) the upload-pack side will
send "ACK %s ready" when it knows how to safely cut the graph and
produce a reasonable pack for the want list that was already sent
on the connection.

Upon receiving "ACK %s ready" there is no point in looking at
the remaining commits inside of rev_list.  Sending additional
"have %s" lines to the remote will not construct a smaller pack.
It is unlikely a commit older than the current cut point will have
a better delta base than the cut point itself has.

The original design of this code had fetch-pack empty rev_list by
marking a commit and its transitive ancestors COMMON whenever the
remote side said "ACK %s {continue,common}" and skipping over any
already COMMON commits during get_rev().  This approach does not
work when most of rev_list is actually COMMON_REF, commits that
are pointed to by a reference on the remote, which exist locally,
and which have not yet been sent to the remote as a "have %s" line.

Most of the common references are tags in the ref/tags namespace,
using points in the commit graph that are more than 1 commit apart.
In git.git itself, this is currently 340 tags, 339 of which point to
commits in the commit graph.  fetch-pack pushes all of these into
rev_list, but is unable to mark them COMMON and discard during a
remote's "ACK %s {continue,common}" because it does not parse through
the entire parent chain.  Not parsing the entire parent chain is
an optimization to avoid walking back to the roots of the repository.

Assuming the client is only following the remote (and does not make
its own local commits), the client needs 11 rounds to spin through
the entire list of tags (32 commits per round, ceil(339/32) == 11).
Unfortunately the server knows on the first "have %s" line that
it can produce a good pack, and does not need to see the remaining
320 tags in the other 10 rounds.

Over git:// and ssh:// this isn't as bad as it sounds, the client is
only transmitting an extra 16,000 bytes that it doesn't need to send.

Over smart HTTP, the client must do an additional 10 HTTP POST
requests, each of which incurs round-trip latency, and must upload
the entire state vector of all known common objects.  On the final
POST request, this is 16 KiB worth of data.

Fix all of this by clearing rev_list as soon as the remote side
says it can construct a pack.

bbc30f9963 add packet tracing debug code
This shows a trace of all packets coming in or out of a given
program. This can help with debugging object negotiation or
other protocol issues.

To keep the code changes simple, we operate at the lowest
level, meaning we don't necessarily understand what's in the
packets. The one exception is a packet starting with "PACK",
which causes us to skip that packet and turn off tracing
(since the gigantic pack data will not be interesting to
read, at least not in the trace format).

We show both written and read packets. In the local case,
this may mean you will see packets twice (written by the
sender and read by the receiver). However, for cases where
the other end is remote, this allows you to see the full
conversation.

Packet tracing can be enabled with GIT_TRACE_PACKET=<foo>,
where <foo> takes the same arguments as GIT_TRACE.

	builtin-shortlog.c     builtin-show-branch.c  builtin-show-ref.c
	builtin-shortlog.o     builtin-show-branch.o  builtin-show-ref.o
	[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin-shor<tab>
	builtin-shortlog.c  builtin-shortlog.o
	[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin-shortlog.c

you get

	[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em buil<tab>		[type]
	builtin/   builtin.h
	[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin		[auto-completes to]
	[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin/sh<tab>	[type]
	shortlog.c     shortlog.o     show-branch.c  show-branch.o  show-ref.c     show-ref.o
	[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin/sho		[auto-completes to]
	[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin/shor<tab>	[type]
	shortlog.c  shortlog.o
	[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin/shortlog.c

which doesn't seem all that different, but not having that annoying
break in "Display all 180 possibilities?" is quite a relief.

NOTE! If you do this in a clean tree (no object files etc), or using an
editor that has auto-completion rules that ignores '*.o' files, you
won't see that annoying 'Display all 180 possibilities?' message - it
will just show the choices instead.  I think bash has some cut-off
around 100 choices or something.

So the reason I see this is that I'm using an odd editory, and thus
don't have the rules to cut down on auto-completion.  But you can
simulate that by using 'ls' instead, or something similar.
