mechanical change; it doesn't change the implementation to handle
repositories other than the_repository yet.

This should make these functions easier to find and cache.h less
overwhelming to read.
In particular, this moves:
- read_object_file
- oid_object_info
- write_object_file
As a result, most of the codebase needs to #include object-store.h.
In this patch the #include is only added to files that would fail to
compile otherwise. It would be better to #include wherever
identifiers from the header are used. That can happen later
when we have better tooling for it.

When upload-pack gained partial clone support (v2.17.0-rc0~132^2~12,
2017-12-08), it was guarded by the uploadpack.allowFilter config item
to allow server operators to control when they start supporting it.
That config item didn't go far enough, though: it controls whether the
'filter' capability is advertised, but if a (custom) client ignores
the capability advertisement and passes a filter specification anyway,
the server would handle that despite allowFilter being false.
This is particularly significant if a security bug is discovered in
this new experimental partial clone code. Installations without
uploadpack.allowFilter ought not to be affected since they don't
intend to support partial clone, but they would be swept up into being
vulnerable.
Simplify and limit the attack surface by making uploadpack.allowFilter
disable the feature, not just the advertisement of it.

also that we release the individual entries as well, thereby fixing at
least one memory-leak (in diff-lib.c).
If someone is holding on to a pointer to an element's `name` or `path`,
that is now a dangling pointer, i.e., we'd be turning an unpleasant
situation into an outright bug. To the best of my understanding no such

Git's source code assumes that unsigned long is at least as precise as
time_t. Which is incorrect, and causes a lot of problems, in particular
where unsigned long is only 32-bit (notably on Windows, even in 64-bit
versions).
So let's just use a more appropriate data type instead. In preparation
for this, we introduce the new `timestamp_t` data type.
By necessity, this is a very, very large patch, as it has to replace all
timestamps' data type in one go.
As we will use a data type that is not necessarily identical to `time_t`,
we need to be very careful to use `time_t` whenever we interact with the
system functions, and `timestamp_t` everywhere else.

time_t is *larger* than unsigned long, and hence we will want to switch
away from the ill-specified `unsigned long` data type.

Every program which links against libgit.a must call this
function, or risk hitting an assert() in system_path() that
checks whether we have configured argv0_path (though only
when RUNTIME_PREFIX is defined, so essentially only on
Windows).
Looking at the diff, you can see that putting it into the
common main() saves us having to do it individually in each
of the external commands. But what you can't see are the
cases where we _should_ have been doing so, but weren't
(e.g., git-credential-store, and all of the t/helper test
programs).
This has been an accident-waiting-to-happen for a long time,
but wasn't triggered until recently because it involves one
of those programs actually calling system_path(). That
happened with git-credential-store in v2.8.0 with ae5f677
(lazily load core.sharedrepository, 2016-03-11). The
program:
- takes a lock file, which...
- opens a tempfile, which...
- calls adjust_shared_perm to fix permissions, which...
- lazy-loads the config (as of ae5f677), which...
- calls system_path() to find the location of
/etc/gitconfig
On systems with RUNTIME_PREFIX, this means credential-store
reliably hits that assert() and cannot be used.
We never noticed in the test suite, because we set
GIT_CONFIG_NOSYSTEM there, which skips the system_path()
lookup entirely. But if we were to tweak git_config() to
find /etc/gitconfig even when we aren't going to open it,
then the test suite shows multiple failures (for
credential-store, and for some other test helpers). I didn't
include that tweak here because it's way too specific to
this particular call to be worth carrying around what is
essentially dead code.
The implementation is fairly straightforward, with one
exception: there is exactly one caller (git.c) that actually
cares about the result of the function, and not the
side-effect of setting up argv0_path. We can accommodate
that by simply replacing the value of argv[0] in the array
we hand down to cmd_main().

There are certain startup tasks that we expect every git
process to do. In some cases this is just to improve the
quality of the program (e.g., setting up gettext()). In
others it is a requirement for using certain functions in
libgit.a (e.g., system_path() expects that you have called
git_extract_argv0_path()).
Most commands are builtins and are covered by the git.c
version of main(). However, there are still a few external
commands that use their own main(). Each of these has to
remember to include the correct startup sequence, and we are
not always consistent.
Rather than just fix the inconsistencies, let's make this
harder to get wrong by providing a common main() that can
run this standard startup.
We basically have two options to do this:
- the compat/mingw.h file already does something like this by
adding a #define that replaces the definition of main with a
wrapper that calls mingw_startup().
The upside is that the code in each program doesn't need
to be changed at all; it's rewritten on the fly by the
preprocessor.
The downside is that it may make debugging of the startup
sequence a bit more confusing, as the preprocessor is
quietly inserting new code.
- the builtin functions are all of the form cmd_foo(),
and git.c's main() calls them.
This is much more explicit, which may make things more
obvious to somebody reading the code. It's also more
flexible (because of course we have to figure out _which_
cmd_foo() to call).
The downside is that each of the builtins must define
cmd_foo(), instead of just main().
This patch chooses the latter option, preferring the more
explicit approach, even though it is more invasive. We
introduce a new file common-main.c, with the "real" main. It
expects to call cmd_main() from whatever other objects it is
linked against.
We link common-main.o against anything that links against
libgit.a, since we know that such programs will need to do
this setup. Note that common-main.o can't actually go inside
libgit.a, as the linker would not pick up its main()
function automatically (it has no callers).
The rest of the patch is just adjusting all of the various
external programs (mostly in t/helper) to use cmd_main().
I've provided a global declaration for cmd_main(), which
means that all of the programs also need to match its
signature. In particular, many functions need to switch to
"const char **" instead of "char **" for argv. This effect
ripples out to a few other variables and functions, as well.
This makes the patch even more invasive, but the end result
is much better. We should be treating argv strings as const
anyway, and now all programs conform to the same signature
(which also matches the way builtins are defined).

parent commits to the current history regardless of where remote refs
are.
Have/Want negotiation is still respected. So if remote refs move, the
server will send two chunks: one between "have" and "want" and another
to extend shallow history. In theory, the client could send no "want"s
in order to get the second chunk only. But the protocol does not allow
that. Either you send no want lines, which means ls-remote; or you
have to send at least one want line that carries deep-relative to the
server..
The main work was done by Dongcan Jiang. I fixed it up here and there.
And of course all the bugs belong to me.
(*) We could even support --deepen=<N> where <N> is negative. In that
case we can cut some history from the shallow clone. This operation
(and --depth=<shorter depth>) does not require interaction with remote
side (and more complicated to implement as a result).

This should allow the user to say "create a shallow clone of this branch
after version <some-tag>".
Short refs are accepted and expanded at the server side with expand_ref()
because we cannot expand (unknown) refs from the client side.
Like deepen-since, deepen-not cannot be used with deepen. But deepen-not
can be mixed with deepen-since. The result is exactly how you do the
command "git rev-list --since=... --not ref".

This should allow the user to say "create a shallow clone containing the

In theory deepen-since and deepen (aka --depth) can be used together to
draw the shallow boundary (whether it's intersection or union is up to
discussion, but if rev-list is used, it's likely intersection). However,
because deepen goes with a custom commit walker, we can't mix the two
yet.

When upload-pack serves a client request, it turns to
pack-objects to do the heavy lifting of creating a
packfile. There's no easy way to intercept the call to
pack-objects, but there are a few good reasons to want to do
so:
1. If you're debugging a client or server issue with
fetching, you may want to store a copy of the generated
packfile.
2. If you're gathering data from real-world fetches for
performance analysis or debugging, storing a copy of
the arguments and stdin lets you replay the pack
generation at your leisure.
3. You may want to insert a caching layer around
pack-objects; it is the most CPU- and memory-intensive
part of serving a fetch, and its output is a pure
function[1] of its input, making it an ideal place to
consolidate identical requests.
This patch adds a simple "hook" interface to intercept calls
to pack-objects. The new test demonstrates how it can be
used for debugging (using it for caching is a
straightforward extension; the tricky part is writing the
actual caching layer).
This hook is unlike the normal hook scripts found in the
"hooks/" directory of a repository. Because we promise that
upload-pack is safe to run in an untrusted repository, we
cannot execute arbitrary code or commands found in the
repository (neither in hooks/, nor in the config). So
instead, this hook is triggered from a config variable that
is explicitly ignored in the per-repo config.
The config variable holds the actual shell command to run as
the hook. Another approach would be to simply treat it as a
boolean: "should I respect the upload-pack hooks in this
repo?", and then run the script from "hooks/" as we usually
do. However, that isn't as flexible; there's no way to run a
hook approved by the site administrator (e.g., in
"/etc/gitconfig") on a repository whose contents are not
trusted. The approach taken by this patch is more
fine-grained, if a little less conventional for git hooks
(it does behave similar to other configured commands like
diff.external, etc).
[1] Pack-objects isn't _actually_ a pure function. Its
output depends on the exact packing of the object
database, and if multi-threading is used for delta
compression, can even differ racily. But for the
purposes of caching, that's OK; of the many possible
outputs for a given input, it is sufficient only that we
output one of them.

Change typedef each_ref_fn to take a "const struct object_id *oid"
parameter instead of "const unsigned char *sha1".
To aid this transition, implement an adapter that can be used to wrap
old-style functions matching the old typedef, which is now called
"each_ref_sha1_fn"), and make such functions callable via the new
interface. This requires the old function and its cb_data to be
wrapped in a "struct each_ref_fn_sha1_adapter", and that object to be
used as the cb_data for an adapter function, each_ref_fn_adapter().
This is an enormous diff, but most of it consists of simple,
mechanical changes to the sites that call any of the "for_each_ref"
family of functions. Subsequent to this change, the call sites can be
rewritten one by one to use the new interface.

With uploadpack.allowReachableSHA1InWant configuration option set on the
server side, "git fetch" can make a request with a "want" line that names
an object that has not been advertised (likely to have been obtained out
of band or from a submodule pointer). Only objects reachable from the
branch tips, i.e. the union of advertised branches and branches hidden by
transfer.hideRefs, will be processed. Note that there is an associated
cost of having to walk back the history to check the reachability.
This feature can be used when obtaining the content of a certain commit,
for which the sha1 is known, without the need of cloning the whole
repository, especially if a shallow fetch is used. Useful cases are e.g.
repositories containing large files in the history, fetching only the
needed data for a submodule checkout, when sharing a sha1 without telling
which exact branch it belongs to and in Gerrit, if you think in terms of
commits instead of change numbers. (The Gerrit case has already been
solved through allowTipSHA1InWant as every Gerrit change has a ref.)

When upload-pack advertises the refs (either for a normal,
non-stateless request, or for the initial contact in a
stateless one), we call for_each_ref with the send_ref
function as its callback. send_ref, in turn, calls
mark_our_ref, which checks whether the ref is hidden, and
sets OUR_REF or HIDDEN_REF on the object as appropriate. If
it is hidden, mark_our_ref also returns "1" to signal
send_ref that the ref should not be advertised.
If we are not advertising refs, (i.e., the follow-up
invocation by an http client to send its "want" lines), we
use mark_our_ref directly as a callback to for_each_ref. Its
marking does the right thing, but when it then returns "1"
to for_each_ref, the latter interprets this as an error and
stops iterating. As a result, we skip marking all of the
refs that come lexicographically after it. Any "want" lines
from the client asking for those objects will fail, as they
were not properly marked with OUR_REF.
To solve this, we introduce a wrapper callback around
mark_our_ref which always returns 0 (even if the ref is
hidden, we want to keep iterating). We also tweak the
signature of mark_our_ref to exclude unnecessary parameters
that were present only to conform to the callback interface.
This should make it less likely for somebody to accidentally
use it as a callback in the future.

When fetching into or pushing from a shallow repository, we want to
aggressively mark edges as uninteresting, since this decreases the pack
size. However, aggressively marking edges can negatively affect
performance on large non-shallow repositories with lots of refs.
Teach pack-objects a --shallow option to indicate that we're pushing
from or fetching into a shallow repository. Use
--objects-edge-aggressive only for shallow repositories and otherwise
use --objects-edge, which performs better in the general case. Update
the callers to pass the --shallow option when they are dealing with a

git:// servers do not need write access to repos and usually don't
have it, which means cdab485 breaks shallow clone over git://

during fetch/push operations with shallow repositories.
Under normal circumstances, we clean up the result when we
are done. However, we do no take steps to clean up after
ourselves when we exit due to die() or signal death.
This patch teaches the tempfile creation code to register
handlers to clean up after ourselves. To handle this, we
change the ownership semantics of the filename returned by
setup_temporary_shallow. It now keeps a copy of the filename
itself, and returns only a const pointer to it.
We can also do away with explicit tempfile removal in the
callers. They all exit not long after finishing with the
file, so they can rely on the auto-cleanup, simplifying the
code.
Note that we keep things simple and maintain only a single
filename to be cleaned. This is sufficient for the current
caller, but we future-proof it with a die("BUG").

If either receive-pack or upload-pack is called on a shallow
repository, shallow commits (*) will be sent after the ref
advertisement (but before the packet flush), so that the receiver has
the full "shape" of the sender's commit graph. This will be needed for
the receiver to update its .git/shallow if necessary.
This breaks the protocol for all clients trying to push to a shallow
repo, or fetch from one. Which is basically the same end result as
today's "is_repository_shallow() && die()" in receive-pack and
upload-pack. New clients will be made aware of shallow upstream and
can make use of this information.
The sender must send all shallow commits that are sent in the
following pack. It may send more shallow commits than necessary.
upload-pack for example may choose to advertise no shallow commits if
it knows in advance that the pack it's going to send contains no
shallow commits. But upload-pack is the server, so we choose the
cheaper way, send full .git/shallow and let the client deal with it.
Smart HTTP is not affected by this patch. Shallow support on
smart-http comes later separately.
(*) A shallow commit is a commit that terminates the revision
walker. It is usually put in .git/shallow in order to keep the

This reverts commit 5e7dcad771cb873e278a0571b46910d7c32e2f6c; there
may be unbounded number of symbolic refs in the repository, but the
capability header line in the on-wire protocol has a rather low
length limit.
One long-standing flaw in the pack transfer protocol used by "git
clone" was that there was no way to tell the other end which branch
"HEAD" points at, and the receiving end needed to guess. A new
capability has been defined in the pack protocol to convey this
information so that cloning from a repository with more than one
branches pointing at the same commit where the HEAD is at now
reliably sets the initial branch in the resulting repository.

Many calls to parse_commit detect errors and die. In some
cases, the custom error messages are more useful than what
parse_commit_or_die could produce, because they give some
context, like which ref the commit came from. Some, however,
just say "invalid commit". Let's convert the latter to use
parse_commit_or_die; its message is slightly more informative,
and it makes the error more consistent throughout git.

One long-standing flaw in the pack transfer protocol was that there
was no way to tell the other end which branch "HEAD" points at.
With a capability "symref=HEAD:refs/heads/master", let the sender to
tell the receiver what symbolic ref points at what ref.
This capability can be repeated more than once to represent symbolic
refs other than HEAD, such as "refs/remotes/origin/HEAD").
Add an infrastructure to collect symbolic refs, format them as extra
capabilities and put it on the wire. For now, just send information
on the "HEAD" and nothing else.

There is no reason not to turn on keepalives by default.
They take very little bandwidth, and significantly less than
the progress reporting they are replacing. And in the case
that progress reporting is on, we should never need to send
a keepalive anyway, as we will constantly be showing
progress and resetting the keepalive timer.
We do not necessarily know what the client's idea of a
reasonable timeout is, so let's keep this on the low side of
5 seconds. That is high enough that we will always prefer
our normal 1-second progress reports to sending a keepalive
packet, but low enough that no sane client should consider
the connection hung.

When upload-pack has started pack-objects, there may be a quiet
period while pack-objects prepares the pack (i.e., counting objects
and delta compression). Normally we would see (and send to the
client) progress information, but if "--quiet" is in effect,
pack-objects will produce nothing at all until the pack data is
ready. On a large repository, this can take tens of seconds (or even
minutes if the system is loaded or the repository is badly packed).
Clients or intermediate proxies can sometimes give up in this
situation, assuming that the server or connection has hung.
This patch introduces a "keepalive" option; if upload-pack sees no
data from pack-objects for a certain number of seconds, it will send
an empty sideband data packet to let the other side know that we are
still working on it.

upload-pack has a special revision walking code for shallow
recipients. It works almost like the similar code in pack-objects
except:
1. in upload-pack, graft points could be added for deepening;
2. also when the repository is deepened, the shallow point will be
moved further away from the tip, but the old shallow point will be
marked as edge to produce more efficient packs. See 6523078 (make
shallow repository deepening more network efficient - 2009-09-03).
Pass the file to pack-objects via --shallow-file. This will override
$GIT_DIR/shallow and give pack-objects the exact repository shape
that upload-pack has.
mark edge commits by revision command arguments. Even if old shallow
points are passed as "--not" revisions as in this patch, they will not
be picked up by mark_edges_uninteresting() because this function looks
up to parents for edges, while in this case the edge is the children,
in the opposite direction. This will be fixed in an later patch when
all given uninteresting commits are marked as edges.

The definition of "struct ref" in "cache.h", a header file so
central to the system, always confused me. This structure is not
about the local ref used by sha1-name API to name local objects.
It is what refspecs are expanded into, after finding out what refs
the other side has, to define what refs are updated after object
transfer succeeds to what values. It belongs to "remote.h" together
with "struct refspec".
While we are at it, also move the types and functions related to the
Git transport connection to a new header file connect.h

When the client sends a 'shallow' line for an object that the server does
not have, the server currently dies with the error: "did not find object
for shallow <obj-id>". The client may have truncated the history at
the commit by fetching shallowly from a different server, or the commit
may have been garbage collected by the server. In either case, this
unknown commit is not relevant for calculating the pack that is to be
sent and can be safely ignored, and it is not used when recomputing where
the updated history of the client is cauterised.
The documentation in technical/pack-protocol.txt has been updated to
remove the restriction that "Clients MUST NOT mention an obj-id which it
does not know exists on the server". This requirement is not realistic
because clients cannot know whether an object has been garbage collected
by the server.

parse_fetch_refspec(): clarify the codeflow a bit
It is a long-time security feature that upload-pack will not
serve any "want" lines that do not correspond to the tip of
one of our refs. Traditionally, this was enforced by
checking the objects in the in-memory hash; they should have
been loaded and received the OUR_REF flag during the
advertisement.
The stateless-rpc mode, however, has a race condition here:
one process advertises, and another receives the want lines,
so the refs may have changed in the interim. To address
this, commit 051e400 added a new verification mode; if the
object is not OUR_REF, we set a "has_non_tip" flag, and then
later verify that the requested objects are reachable from
our current tips.
However, we still die immediately when the object is not in
our in-memory hash, and at this point we should only have
loaded our tip objects. So the check_non_tip code path does
not ever actually trigger, as any non-tip objects would
have already caused us to die.
We can fix that by using parse_object instead of
lookup_object, which will load the object from disk if it
has not already been loaded.
We still need to check that parse_object does not return
NULL, though, as it is possible we do not have the object
at all. A more appropriate error message would be "no such
object" rather than "not our ref"; however, we do not want
to leak information about what objects are or are not in
the object database, so we continue to use the same "not
our ref" message that would be produced by an unreachable
object.

When upload-pack receives a "want" line from the client, it
adds it to an object array. We call lookup_object to find
the actual object, which will only check for objects already
in memory. This works because we are expecting to find
objects that we already loaded during the ref advertisement.
We use the resulting object structs for a variety of
purposes. Some of them care only about the object flags, but
others care about the type of the object (e.g.,
ok_to_give_up), or even feed them to the revision parser
(when --depth is used), which assumes that objects it
receives are fully parsed.
Once upon a time, this was OK; any object we loaded into
memory would also have been parsed. But since 435c833
(upload-pack: use peel_ref for ref advertisements,
2012-10-04), we try to avoid parsing objects during the ref
advertisement. This means that lookup_object may return an
object with a type of OBJ_NONE. The resulting mess depends
on the exact set of objects, but can include the revision
parser barfing, or the shallow code sending the wrong set of
objects.
This patch teaches upload-pack to parse each "want" object
as we receive it. We do not replace the lookup_object call
with parse_object, as the current code is careful not to let
just any object appear on a "want" line, but rather only one
we have previously advertised (whereas parse_object would
actually load any arbitrary object from disk).

When we receive a "have" line from the client, we want to
load the object pointed to by the sha1. However, we are
careful to do:
o = lookup_object(sha1);
if (!o || !o->parsed)
o = parse_object(sha1);
to avoid loading the object from disk if we have already
seen it. However, since ccdc603 (parse_object: try internal
cache before reading object db), parse_object already does
this optimization internally. We can just call parse_object
directly.

Most of the callers of packet_read_line just read into a
static 1000-byte buffer (callers which handle arbitrary
binary data already use LARGE_PACKET_MAX). This works fine
in practice, because:
1. The only variable-sized data in these lines is a ref
name, and refs tend to be a lot shorter than 1000
characters.
2. When sending ref lines, git-core always limits itself
to 1000 byte packets.
However, the only limit given in the protocol specification
in Documentation/technical/protocol-common.txt is
LARGE_PACKET_MAX; the 1000 byte limit is mentioned only in
pack-protocol.txt, and then only describing what we write,
not as a specific limit for readers.
This patch lets us bump the 1000-byte limit to
LARGE_PACKET_MAX. Even though git-core will never write a
packet where this makes a difference, there are two good
reasons to do this:
1. Other git implementations may have followed
protocol-common.txt and used a larger maximum size. We
don't bump into it in practice because it would involve
very long ref names.
2. We may want to increase the 1000-byte limit one day.
Since packets are transferred before any capabilities,
it's difficult to do this in a backwards-compatible
way. But if we bump the size of buffer the readers can
handle, eventually older versions of git will be
obsolete enough that we can justify bumping the
writers, as well. We don't have plans to do this
anytime soon, but there is no reason not to start the
clock ticking now.
Just bumping all of the reading bufs to LARGE_PACKET_MAX
would waste memory. Instead, since most readers just read
into a temporary buffer anyway, let's provide a single
static buffer that all callers can use. We can further wrap
this detail away by having the packet_read_line wrapper just
use the buffer transparently and return a pointer to the
static storage. That covers most of the cases, and the
remaining ones already read into their own LARGE_PACKET_MAX
buffers.

The packets sent during ref negotiation are all terminated
by newline; even though the code to chomp these newlines is
short, we end up doing it in a lot of places.
This patch teaches packet_read_line to auto-chomp the
trailing newline; this lets us get rid of a lot of inline
chomping code.
As a result, some call-sites which are not reading
line-oriented data (e.g., when reading chunks of packfiles
alongside sideband) transition away from packet_read_line to
the generic packet_read interface. This patch converts all
of the existing callsites.
Since the function signature of packet_read_line does not
change (but its behavior does), there is a possibility of
new callsites being introduced in later commits, silently
introducing an incompatibility. However, since a later
patch in this series will change the signature, such a
commit would have to be merged directly into this commit,
not to the tip of the series; we can therefore ignore the
issue.
This is an internal cleanup and should produce no change of
behavior in the normal case. However, there is one corner
case to note. Callers of packet_read_line have never been
able to tell the difference between a flush packet ("0000")
and an empty packet ("0004"), as both cause packet_read_line
to return a length of 0. Readers treat them identically,
even though Documentation/technical/protocol-common.txt says
we must not; it also says that implementations should not
send an empty pkt-line.
By stripping out the newline before the result gets to the
caller, we will now treat the newline-only packet ("0005\n")
the same as an empty packet, which in turn gets treated like
a flush packet. In practice this doesn't matter, as neither
empty nor newline-only packets are part of git's protocols
(at least not for the line-oriented bits, and readers who
are not expecting line-oriented packets will be calling
packet_read directly, anyway). But even if we do decide to
care about the distinction later, it is orthogonal to this
patch. The right place to tighten would be to stop treating
empty packets as flush packets, and this change does not
make doing so any harder.

When the client tells us it has a shallow object via
"shallow <sha1>", we make sure we have the object, mark it
with a flag, then add it to a dynamic array of shallow
objects. This means that a client can get us to allocate
arbitrary amounts of memory just by flooding us with shallow
lines (whether they have the objects or not). You can
demonstrate it easily with:
yes '0035shallow e83c5163316f89bfbde7d9ab23ca2e25604af290' |
git-upload-pack git.git
We already protect against duplicates in want lines by
checking if our flag is already set; let's do the same thing
here. Note that a client can still get us to allocate some
amount of memory by marking every object in the repo as
"shallow" (or "want"). But this at least bounds it with the
number of objects in the repository, which is not under the
control of an upload-pack client.

When we receive a line like "shallow <sha1>" from the
client, we feed the <sha1> part to get_sha1. This is a
mistake, as the argument on a shallow line is defined by
Documentation/technical/pack-protocol.txt to contain an
"obj-id". This is never defined in the BNF, but it is clear
from the text and from the other uses that it is meant to be
a hex sha1, not an arbitrary identifier (and that is what
fetch-pack has always sent).
We should be using get_sha1_hex instead, which doesn't allow
the client to request arbitrary junk like "HEAD@{yesterday}".
Because this is just marking shallow objects, the client
couldn't actually do anything interesting (like fetching
objects from unreachable reflog entries), but we should keep
our parsing tight to be on the safe side.
Because get_sha1 is for the most part a superset of
get_sha1_hex, in theory the only behavior change should be
disallowing non-hex object references. However, there is
one interesting exception: get_sha1 will only parse
a 40-character hex sha1 if the string has exactly 40
characters, whereas get_sha1_hex will just eat the first 40
characters, leaving the rest. That means that current
versions of git-upload-pack will not accept a "shallow"
packet that has a trailing newline, even though the protocol
documentation is clear that newlines are allowed (even
encouraged) in non-binary parts of the protocol.
This never mattered in practice, though, because fetch-pack,
contrary to the protocol documentation, does not include a
newline in its shallow lines. JGit follows its lead (though
it correctly is strict on the parsing end about wanting a
hex object id).
We do not adjust fetch-pack to send newlines here, as it
would break communication with older versions of git (and
there is no actual benefit to doing so, except for
consistency with other parts of the protocol).

A repository may have refs that are only used for its internal
bookkeeping purposes that should not be exposed to the others that
come over the network.
Teach upload-pack to omit some refs from its initial advertisement
by paying attention to the uploadpack.hiderefs multi-valued
configuration variable. Do the same to receive-pack via the
receive.hiderefs variable. As a convenient short-hand, allow using
transfer.hiderefs to set the value to both of these variables.
Any ref that is under the hierarchies listed on the value of these
variable is excluded from responses to requests made by "ls-remote",
"fetch", etc. (for upload-pack) and "push" (for receive-pack).
Because these hidden refs do not count as OUR_REF, an attempt to
fetch objects at the tip of them will be rejected, and because these
refs do not get advertised, "git push :" will not see local branches
that have the same name as them as "matching" ones to be sent.
An attempt to update/delete these hidden refs with an explicit
refspec, e.g. "git push origin :refs/hidden/22", is rejected. This
is not a new restriction. To the pusher, it would appear that there
is no such ref, so its push request will conclude with "Now that I
sent you all the data, it is time for you to update the refs. I saw
that the ref did not exist when I started pushing, and I want the
result to point at this commit". The receiving end will apply the
compare-and-swap rule to this request and rejects the push with
"Well, your update request conflicts with somebody else; I see there
is such a ref.", which is the right thing to do. Otherwise a push to
a hidden ref will always be "the last one wins", which is not a good
default.

"git fetch --depth" was broken in at least three ways. The

* nd/fetch-depth-is-broken:

Long time ago, we used to punt on a large (read: asking for more

we couldn't fit many refs on the command line of rev-list we run
internally to enumerate the objects to be sent. To fix this,
565ebbf (upload-pack: tighten request validation., 2005-10-24),
added a check to count the number of refs in the request and matched
with the number of refs we advertised, and changed the invocation of
rev-list to pass "--all" to it, still keeping us under the command
line argument limit.
However, these days we feed the list of objects requested and the
list of objects the other end is known to have via standard input,
so there is no longer a valid reason to special case a full clone
request. Remove the code associated with "create_full_pack" to
simplify the logic.

The user can do --depth=2147483647 (*) for restoring complete repo

longest commit chain in the repository would also do, but some
guessing may be involved. Make easy-to-remember --unshallow an alias

Make upload-pack recognize this special number as infinite depth. The
effect is essentially the same as before, except that upload-pack is
more efficient because it does not have to traverse to the bottom
anymore.
The chance of a user actually wanting exactly 2147483647 commits
depth, not infinite, on a repository with a history that long, is
probably too small to consider. The client can learn to add or
subtract one commit to avoid the special treatment when that actually
happens.

When upload-pack advertises refs, we attempt to peel tags
and advertise the peeled version. We currently hand-roll the
tag dereferencing, and use as many optimizations as we can
to avoid loading non-tag objects into memory.
Not only has peel_ref recently learned these optimizations,
too, but it also contains an even more important one: it
has access to the "peeled" data from the pack-refs file.
That means we can avoid not only loading annotated tags
entirely, but also avoid doing any kind of object lookup at
all.

This shows only a 15% speedup (mostly because it has fewer
actual tags to parse), but a larger absolute value (100ms,
which isn't a lot compared to a real fetch, but this
advertisement happens on every fetch, even if the client is
just finding out they are completely up to date).
In truly pathological cases, where you have a large number
of unique annotated tags, it can make an even bigger

Instead of having the client advertise a particular version
number in the git protocol, we have managed extensions and
backwards compatibility by having clients and servers
advertise capabilities that they support. This is far more
robust than having each side consult a table of
known versions, and provides sufficient information for the
protocol interaction to complete.
However, it does not allow servers to keep statistics on
which client versions are being used. This information is
not necessary to complete the network request (the
capabilities provide enough information for that), but it
may be helpful to conduct a general survey of client
versions in use.
We already send the client version in the user-agent header
for http requests; adding it here allows us to gather
similar statistics for non-http requests.

We have been carefully choosing feature names used in the protocol
extensions so that the vocabulary does not contain a word that is a
substring of another word, so it is not a real problem, but we have
recently added "quiet" feature word, which would mean we cannot later
add some other word with "quiet" (e.g. "quiet-push"), which is awkward.
Let's make sure that we can eventually be able to do so by teaching the
clients and servers that feature words consist of non whitespace
letters. This parser also allows us to later add features with parameters
e.g. "feature=1.5" (parameter values need to be quoted for whitespaces,
but we will worry about the detauls when we do introduce them).

When upload-pack advertises refs, it dereferences any tags
it sees, and shows the resulting sha1 to the client. It does
this by calling deref_tag. That function must load and parse
each tag object to find the sha1 of the tagged object.
However, it also ends up parsing the tagged object itself,
which is not strictly necessary for upload-pack's use.
Each tag produces two object loads (assuming it is not a
recursive tag), when it could get away with only a single
one. Dropping the second load halves the effort we spend.
The downside is that we are no longer verifying the
resulting object by loading it. In particular:
1. We never cross-check the "type" field given in the tag
object with the type of the pointed-to object. If the
tag says it points to a tag but doesn't, then we will
keep peeling and realize the error. If the tag says it
points to a non-tag but actually points to a tag, we
will stop peeling and just advertise the pointed-to
tag.
2. If we are missing the pointed-to object, we will not
realize (because we never even look it up in the object
db).
However, both of these are errors in the object database,
and both will be detected if a client actually requests the
broken objects in question. So we are simply pushing the
verification away from the advertising stage, and down to
the actual fetching stage.
On my test repo with 120K refs, this drops the time to
advertise the refs from ~3.2s to ~2.0s.

When we advertise a ref, the first thing we do is parse the
pointed-to object. This gives us two things:
1. a "struct object" we can use to store flags
2. the type of the object, so we know whether we need to
dereference it as a tag
Instead, we can just use lookup_unknown_object to get an
object struct, and then fill in just the type field using
sha1_object_info (which, in the case of packed files, can
find the information without actually inflating the object
data).
This can save time if you have a large number of refs, and
the client isn't actually going to request those refs (e.g.,
because most of them are already up-to-date).
The downside is that we are no longer verifying objects that
we advertise by fully parsing them (however, we do still
know we actually have them, because sha1_object_info must
find them to get the type). While we might fail to detect a
corrupt object here, if the client actually fetches the
object, we will parse (and verify) it then.
On a repository with 120K refs, the advertisement portion of
upload-pack goes from ~3.4s to 3.2s (the failure to speed up
more is largely due to the fact that most of these refs are
tags, which need dereferenced to find the tag destination
anyway).

Change the skeleton implementation of i18n in Git to one that can show
localized strings to users for our C, Shell and Perl programs using
either GNU libintl or the Solaris gettext implementation.
This new internationalization support is enabled by default. If
gettext isn't available, or if Git is compiled with
NO_GETTEXT=YesPlease, Git falls back on its current behavior of
showing interface messages in English. When using the autoconf script
we'll auto-detect if the gettext libraries are installed and act
appropriately.
This change is somewhat large because as well as adding a C, Shell and
Perl i18n interface we're adding a lot of tests for them, and for
those tests to work we need a skeleton PO file to actually test
translations. A minimal Icelandic translation is included for this
purpose. Icelandic includes multi-byte characters which makes it easy
to test various edge cases, and it's a language I happen to
understand.
The rest of the commit message goes into detail about various
sub-parts of this commit.
= Installation
Gettext .mo files will be installed and looked for in the standard
$(prefix)/share/locale path. GIT_TEXTDOMAINDIR can also be set to
override that, but that's only intended to be used to test Git itself.
= Perl
Perl code that's to be localized should use the new Git::I18n
module. It imports a __ function into the caller's package by default.
Instead of using the high level Locale::TextDomain interface I've
opted to use the low-level (equivalent to the C interface)
Locale::Messages module, which Locale::TextDomain itself uses.
Locale::TextDomain does a lot of redundant work we don't need, and
some of it would potentially introduce bugs. It tries to set the
$TEXTDOMAIN based on package of the caller, and has its own
hardcoded paths where it'll search for messages.
I found it easier just to completely avoid it rather than try to
circumvent its behavior. In any case, this is an issue wholly
internal Git::I18N. Its guts can be changed later if that's deemed
necessary.
See <AANLkTilYD_NyIZMyj9dHtVk-ylVBfvyxpCC7982LWnVd@mail.gmail.com> for
a further elaboration on this topic.
= Shell
Shell code that's to be localized should use the git-sh-i18n
library. It's basically just a wrapper for the system's gettext.sh.
If gettext.sh isn't available we'll fall back on gettext(1) if it's
available. The latter is available without the former on Solaris,
which has its own non-GNU gettext implementation. We also need to
emulate eval_gettext() there.
If neither are present we'll use a dumb printf(1) fall-through
wrapper.
= About libcharset.h and langinfo.h
We use libcharset to query the character set of the current locale if
it's available. I.e. we'll use it instead of nl_langinfo if
HAVE_LIBCHARSET_H is set.
The GNU gettext manual recommends using langinfo.h's
nl_langinfo(CODESET) to acquire the current character set, but on
systems that have libcharset.h's locale_charset() using the latter is
either saner, or the only option on those systems.
GNU and Solaris have a nl_langinfo(CODESET), FreeBSD can use either,
but MinGW and some others need to use libcharset.h's locale_charset()
instead.

A request to fetch from a client over smart HTTP protocol is served in
multiple steps. In the first round, the server side shows the set of refs
it has and their values, and the client picks from them and sends "I want
to fetch the history leading to these commits".
When the server tries to respond to this second request, its refs may have
progressed by a push from elsewhere. By design, we do not allow fetching
objects that are not at the tip of an advertised ref, and the server
rejects such a request. The client needs to try again, which is not ideal
especially for a busy server.
Teach upload-pack (which is the workhorse driven by git-daemon and smart
http server interface) that it is OK for a smart-http client to ask for
commits that are not at the tip of any advertised ref, as long as they are
reachable from advertised refs.

Change upload-pack and receive-pack to use the namespace-prefixed refs
when working with the repository, and use the unprefixed refs when
talking to the client, maintaining the masquerade. This allows
clone, pull, fetch, and push to work with a suitably configured
GIT_NAMESPACE.
receive-pack advertises refs outside the current namespace as .have refs
(as it currently does for refs in alternates), so that the client can
use them to minimize data transfer but will otherwise ignore them.
With appropriate configuration, this also allows http-backend to expose
namespaces as multiple repositories with different paths. This only
requires setting GIT_NAMESPACE, which http-backend passes through to
upload-pack and receive-pack.

In a pthread-enabled version of upload-pack, there's a race condition
that can cause a deadlock on the fflush(NULL) we call from run-command.
What happens is this:
1. Upload-pack is informed we are doing a shallow clone.
2. We call start_async() to spawn a thread that will generate rev-list
results to feed to pack-objects. It gets a file descriptor to a
pipe which will eventually hook to pack-objects.
3. The rev-list thread uses fdopen to create a new output stream
around the fd we gave it, called pack_pipe.
4. The thread writes results to pack_pipe. Outside of our control,
libc is doing locking on the stream. We keep writing until the OS
pipe buffer is full, and then we block in write(), still holding
the lock.
5. The main thread now uses start_command to spawn pack-objects.
Before forking, it calls fflush(NULL) to flush every stdio output
buffer. It blocks trying to get the lock on pack_pipe.
And we have a deadlock. The thread will block until somebody starts
reading from the pipe. But nobody will read from the pipe until we
finish flushing to the pipe.
To fix this, we swap the start order: we start the
pack-objects reader first, and then the rev-list writer
after. Thus the problematic fflush(NULL) happens before we
even open the new file descriptor (and even if it didn't,
flushing should no longer block, as the reader at the end of
the pipe is now active).

This reverts 3e63b21 (upload-pack: Implement no-done capability,
2011-03-14). Together with 761ecf0 (fetch-pack: Implement no-done
capability, 2011-03-14) it seems to make the fetch-pack process out of
sync and makes it keep talking long after upload-pack stopped listening to
it, terminating the process with SIGPIPE.
If the client requests both multi_ack_detailed and no-done then
upload-pack is free to immediately send a PACK following its first
'ACK %s ready' message. The upload-pack response actually winds
up being:
ACK %s common
... (maybe more) ...
ACK %s ready
NAK
ACK %s
PACK.... the pack stream ....
For smart HTTP connections this saves one HTTP RPC, reducing
the overall latency for a trivial fetch. For git:// and ssh://
a no-done option slightly reduces latency by removing one
server->client->server round-trip at the end of the common
ancestor negotiation.

If a client is merely following the remote (and has not made any
new commits itself), all "have %s" lines sent by the client will be
common to the server. As all lines are common upload-pack never
calls ok_to_give_up() and does not compute if it has a good cut
point in the commit graph.
Without this computation the following client is going to send all
tagged commits, as these were determined to be COMMON_REF during the
initial advertisement, but the client does not parse their history
to transitively pass the COMMON flag and empty its queue of commits.
For git.git with 339 commit tags, it takes clients 11 rounds of
negotation to fully send all tagged commits and exhaust its queue
of things to send as common. This is pretty slow for a client that
has not done any local development activity.
Force computing ok_to_give_up() and send "ACK %s ready" at the end
of the current round if this round only contained common objects
and ok_to_give_up() was therefore not called. This may allow the
client to break early, avoiding transmission of the COMMON_REFs.

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.

This patch adds the possibility to supply a set of non-0 file
descriptors for async process communication instead of the
default-created pipe.
Additionally, we now support bi-directional communiction with the
async procedure, by giving the async function both read and write
file descriptors.
To retain compatiblity and similar "API feel" with start_command,
we require start_async callers to set .out = -1 to get a readable
file descriptor. If either of .in or .out is 0, we supply no file
descriptor to the async process.

In theory it is possible for sideband channel #2 to be delayed if
pack data is quick to come up for sideband channel #1. And because
data for channel #2 is read only 128 bytes at a time while pack data
is read 8192 bytes at a time, it is possible for many pack blocks to
be sent to the client before the progress message fifo is emptied,
making the situation even worse. This would result in totally garbled
progress display on the client's console as local progress gets mixed
with partial remote progress lines.
Let's prevent such situations by giving transmission priority to
progress messages over pack data at all times.

This fits with the HTTP POST request processing model where a

When --advertise-refs is passed as a command line parameter only
the initial ref advertisement is output, and the program exits

When multi_ack_detailed is enabled the ACK continue messages returned
by the remote upload-pack are broken out to describe the different
states within the peer. This permits the client to better understand
the server's in-memory state.
The fetch-pack/upload-pack protocol now looks like:
NAK
---------------------------------
Always sent in response to "done" if there was no common base
selected from the "have" lines (or no have lines were sent).
* no multi_ack or multi_ack_detailed:
Sent when the client has sent a pkt-line flush ("0000") and
the server has not yet found a common base object.
* either multi_ack or multi_ack_detailed:
Always sent in response to a pkt-line flush.
ACK %s
-----------------------------------
* no multi_ack or multi_ack_detailed:
Sent in response to "have" when the object exists on the remote
side and is therefore an object in common between the peers.
The argument is the SHA-1 of the common object.
* either multi_ack or multi_ack_detailed:
Sent in response to "done" if there are common objects.
The argument is the last SHA-1 determined to be common.
ACK %s continue
-----------------------------------
* multi_ack only:
Sent in response to "have".
The remote side wants the client to consider this object as
common, and immediately stop transmitting additional "have"
lines for objects that are reachable from it. The reason
the client should stop is not given, but is one of the two
cases below available under multi_ack_detailed.
ACK %s common
-----------------------------------
* multi_ack_detailed only:
Sent in response to "have". Both sides have this object.
Like with "ACK %s continue" above the client should stop
sending have lines reachable for objects from the argument.
ACK %s ready
-----------------------------------
* multi_ack_detailed only:
Sent in response to "have".
The client should stop transmitting objects which are reachable
from the argument, and send "done" soon to get the objects.
If the remote side has the specified object, it should
first send an "ACK %s common" message prior to sending
"ACK %s ready".
Clients may still submit additional "have" lines if there are
more side branches for the client to explore that might be added
to the common set and reduce the number of objects to transfer.

+

+ write_in_full(helper->in, buf.buf, buf.len);

IMHO, it would be better to define a new function,
static inline ssize_t write_str_in_full(int fd, const char *str)
{
return write_in_full(fd, str, strlen(str));
}
and then use it like this:
- strbuf_addstr(&buf, "list\n");
- write_in_full(helper->in, buf.buf, buf.len);
- strbuf_reset(&buf);
+ write_str_in_full(helper->in, "list\n");
Thus not requiring the added allocation, and still avoiding
the maintenance risk of literal string lengths.
These days, compilers are good enough that strlen("literal")
imposes no run-time cost.

First of all, I can't find any reason why thin pack generation is
explicitly disabled when dealing with a shallow repository. The
possible delta base objects are collected from the edge commits which
are always obtained through history walking with the same shallow refs
as the client, Therefore the client is always going to have those base
objects available. So let's remove that restriction.
Then we can make shallow repository deepening much more efficient by
using the remote's unshallowed commits as edge commits to get preferred
base objects for thin pack generation. On git.git, this makes the data
transfer for the deepening of a shallow repository from depth 1 to depth 2
around 134 KB instead of 3.68 MB.

A request to clone the repository does not give any "have" but asks for
all the refs we offer with "want". When a request does not ask to clone
the repository fully, but asks to fetch some refs into an empty
repository, it will not give any "have" but its "want" won't ask for all
the refs we offer.
If we suppose (and I would say this is a rather big if) that it makes
sense to distinguish these two cases, a hook cannot reliably do this
alone. The hook can detect lack of "have" and bunch of "want", but there
is no direct way to tell if the other end asked for all refs we offered,
or merely most of them.
Between the time we talked with the other end and the time the hook got
called, we may have acquired more refs or lost some refs in the repository
by concurrent operations. Given that we plan to introduce selective
advertisement of refs with a protocol extension, it would become even more
difficult for hooks to guess between these two cases.
This adds "kind [clone|fetch]" to hook's input, as a stable interface to
allow the hooks to tell these cases apart.

After upload-pack successfully finishes its operation, post-upload-pack
hook can be called for logging purposes.
The hook is passed various pieces of information, one per line, from its
standard input. Currently the following items can be fed to the hook, but
more types of information may be added in the future:
want SHA-1::
40-byte hexadecimal object name the client asked to include in the
resulting pack. Can occur one or more times in the input.
have SHA-1::
40-byte hexadecimal object name the client asked to exclude from
the resulting pack, claiming to have them already. Can occur zero
or more times in the input.
time float::
Number of seconds spent for creating the packfile.
size decimal::
Size of the resulting packfile in bytes.

parse-options: add new function "usage_msg_opt"
builtin-replace: teach "git replace" to actually replace
Add new "git replace" command
environment: add global variable to disable replacement
mktag: call "check_sha1_signature" with the replacement sha1
replace_object: add a test case
object: call "check_sha1_signature" with the replacement sha1
sha1_file: add a "read_sha1_file_repl" function
replace_object: add mechanism to replace objects found in "refs/replace/"
refs: add a "for_each_replace_ref" function
upload-pack runs pack-objects, which generates progress indicator output
on its stderr. If the client requests a sideband, this indicator is sent
to the client; but if it did not, then the progress is written to
upload-pack's own stderr.
If upload-pack is itself run from git-daemon (and if the client did not
request a sideband) the progress indicator never reaches the client and it
need not be generated in the first place. With this patch the progress
indicator is suppressed in this situation.

Offload object enumeration in upload-pack to pack-objects, but fall
back on internal revision walker for shallow interaction. Aside from
architecturally making more sense, this also leaves the door open for
pack-objects to employ a revision cache mechanism. Test t5530 updated
in order to explicitly check both enumeration methods.

This new "read_replace_refs" global variable is set to 1 by
default, so that replace refs are used by default. But
reachability traversal and packing commands ("cmd_fsck",
"cmd_prune", "cmd_pack_objects", "upload_pack",
"cmd_unpack_objects") set it to 0, as they must work with the
original DAG.
