When cloning a repository with an unborn HEAD, we'll set the local HEAD
to match it only if the local repository is non-bare. This is
inconsistent with all other combinations:
remote HEAD | local repo | local HEAD
-----------------------------------------------
points to commit | non-bare | same as remote
points to commit | bare | same as remote
unborn | non-bare | same as remote
unborn | bare | local default
So I don't think this is some clever or subtle behavior, but just a bug
in 4f37d45706 (clone: respect remote unborn HEAD, 2021-02-05). And it's
easy to see how we ended up there. Before that commit, the code to set
up the HEAD for an empty repo was guarded by "if (!option_bare)". That's
because the only thing it did was call install_branch_config(), and we
don't want to do so for a bare repository (unborn HEAD or not).
That commit put the handling of unborn HEADs into the same block, since
those also need to call install_branch_config(). But the unborn case has
an additional side effect of calling create_symref(), and we want that
to happen whether we are bare or not.
This patch just pulls all of the "figure out the default branch" code
out of the "!option_bare" block. Only the actual config installation is
kept there.
Note that this does mean we might allocate "ref" and not use it (if the
remote is empty but did not advertise an unborn HEAD). But that's not
really a big deal since this isn't a hot code path, and it keeps the
code simple. The alternative would be handling unborn_head_target
separately, but that gets confusing since its memory ownership is
tangled up with the "ref" variable.
There's just one new test, for the case we're fixing. The other ones in
the table are handled elsewhere (the unborn non-bare case just above,
and the actually-born cases in t5601, t5606, and t5609, as they do not
require v2's "unborn" protocol extension).

In 84e4484f12 (commit-graph: use parse_options_concat(), 2021-08-23) we
unified common options of commit-graph's subcommands into a single
"common_opts" array.
But 84e4484f12 introduced a behavior change which is to accept the
"--[no-]progress" option before any sub-commands, e.g.,
git commit-graph --progress write ...
Prior to that commit, the above would error out with "unknown option".
There are two issues with this behavior change. First is that the
top-level --[no-]progress is not always respected. This is because
isatty(2) is performed in the sub-commands, which unconditionally
overwrites any --[no-]progress that was given at the top-level.
But the second issue is that the existing sub-commands of commit-graph
only happen to both have a sensible interpretation of what `--progress`
or `--no-progress` means. If we ever added a sub-command which didn't
have a notion of progress, we would be forced to ignore the top-level
`--[no-]progress` altogether.
Since we haven't released a version of Git that supports --[no-]progress
as a top-level option for `git commit-graph`, let's remove it.

Now that we both can propagate values from the hashcache, and respect

these function correctly by hardening their behavior with a test.
Like the hash-cache in classic single-pack bitmaps, this helps more
proportionally the more up-to-date your bitmap coverage is. When our
bitmap coverage is out-of-date with the ref tips, we spend more time
proportionally traversing, and all of that traversal gets the name-hash
filled in.
But for the up-to-date bitmaps, this helps quite a bit. These numbers
are on git.git, with `pack.threads=1` to help see the difference
reflected in the overall runtime.

To help test the performance of permuting the contents of the hash-cache
when generating a MIDX bitmap, we need a bitmap which has its hash-cache
populated.
And since multi-pack bitmaps don't add *new* values to the hash-cache,
we have to rely on a single-pack bitmap to generate those values for us.
Therefore, generate a pack bitmap before the MIDX one in order to ensure
that the MIDX bitmap has entries in its hash-cache. Since we don't want
to time generating the pack bitmap, move that to a non-perf test run
before we try to generate the MIDX bitmap.
Likewise, get rid of the pack bitmap afterwords, to make certain that we
are not accidentally using it in the performance tests run later on.

t1400.190 sometimes fails or even hangs because of the way it uses
fifos. Our goal is to interactively read and write lines from
update-ref, so we have two fifos, in and out. We open a descriptor
connected to "in" and redirect output to that, so that update-ref does
not see EOF as it would if we opened and closed it for each "echo" call.
But we don't do the same for the output. This leads to a race where our
"read response <out" has not yet opened the fifo, but update-ref tries
to write to it and gets SIGPIPE. This can result in the test failing, or
worse, hanging as we wait forever for somebody to write to the pipe.
This is the same proble we fixed in 4783e7ea83 (t0008: avoid SIGPIPE

The v2 ls-refs command may receive extra arguments from the client, one
per pkt-line. The spec is pretty clear that the arguments must come from
a specified set, but we silently ignore any unknown entries. For a
well-behaved client this doesn't matter, but it makes testing and
debugging more confusing. Let's tighten this up to match the spec.
In theory this liberal behavior _could_ be useful for extending the
protocol. But:
- every other part of the protocol requires that the server first
indicate that it supports the argument; this includes the fetch and
object-info commands, plus the "unborn" capability added to ls-refs
itself
- it's not a very good extension mechanism anyway; without the server
advertising support, clients would have no idea if the argument was
silently ignored, or accepted and simply had no effect
So we're not really losing anything by tightening this.

Our table of v2 "capabilities" contains everything we might tell the
client we support. But there are differences in how we expect the client
to respond. Some of the entries are true capabilities (i.e., we expect
the client to say "yes, I support this"), and some are ones we expect
them to send as commands (with "command=ls-refs" or similar).
When we receive a capability used as a command, we complain about that.
But when we receive a command used as a capability (e.g., just "ls-refs"
in a pkt-line by itself), we silently ignore it.
This isn't really hurting anything (clients shouldn't send it, and we'll
ignore it), but we can tighten up the protocol to match what we expect
to happen.
There are two new tests here. The first one checks a capability used as
a command, which already passes. The second tests a command as a
capability, which this patch fixes.

When we see a line from the client like "command=ls-refs", we parse
everything after the equals sign as a capability, which we check against
our capabilities table. If we don't recognize the command (e.g.,
"command=foo"), we'll reject it.
But in parse_command(), we use the same get_capability() parser for
parsing non-command lines. So if we see "command=ls-refs=foo", we will
feed "ls-refs=foo" to get_capability(), which will say "OK, that's
ls-refs, with value 'foo'". But then we simply ignore the value
entirely.
The client is violating the spec here, which says:
command = PKT-LINE("command=" key LF)
key = 1*(ALPHA | DIGIT | "-_")
I.e., the key is not even allowed to have an equals sign in it. Whereas
a real non-command capability does allow a value:
capability = PKT-LINE(key[=value] LF)
So by reusing the same get_capability() parser, we are mixing up the
"key" and "capability" tokens. However, since that parser tells us
whether it saw an "=", we can still use it; we just need to reject any
input that produces a non-NULL value field.
The current behavior isn't really hurting anything (the client should
never send such a request, and if it does, we just ignore the "value"
part). But since it does violate the spec, let's tighten it up to
prevent any surprising behavior.

We've never documented the fact that a client can provide multiple
ref-prefix capabilities. Let's describe the behavior.
We also never discussed the "best effort" nature of the prefixes. The
client side of git.git has always treated them this way, filtering the
result with local patterns. And indeed any client must do this, because
the prefix patterns are not sufficient to express the usual refspecs
(and so for "foo" we ask for "refs/heads/foo", "refs/tags/foo", and so
on).
So this may be considered a change in the spec with respect to client
expectations / requirements, but it's mostly codifying existing
behavior.

Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
Because each "ref-prefix" capability from the client comes in its own
pkt-line, there's no limit to the number of them that a misbehaving
client may send. We read them all into a strvec, which means the client
can waste arbitrary amounts of our memory by just sending us "ref-prefix
foo" over and over.
One possible solution is to just drop the connection when the limit is
reached. If we set it high enough, then only misbehaving or malicious
clients would hit it. But "high enough" is vague, and it's unfriendly if
we guess wrong and a legitimate client hits this.
But we can do better. Since supporting the ref-prefix capability is
optional anyway, the client has to further cull the response based on
their own patterns. So we can simply ignore the patterns once we cross a
certain threshold. Note that we have to ignore _all_ patterns, not just
the ones past our limit (since otherwise we'd send too little data).
The limit here is fairly arbitrary, and probably much higher than anyone
would need in practice. It might be worth limiting it further, if only
because we check it linearly (so with "m" local refs and "n" patterns,
we do "m * n" string comparisons). But if we care about optimizing this,
an even better solution may be a more advanced data structure anyway.
I didn't bother making the limit configurable, since it's so high and
since Git should behave correctly in either case. It wouldn't be too
hard to do, but it makes both the code and documentation more complex.

We collect the set of capabilities the client sends us in a strvec.
While this is usually small, there's no limit to the number of
capabilities the client can send us (e.g., they could just send us
"agent" pkt-lines over and over, and we'd keep adding them to the list).
Since all code has been converted away from using this list, let's get
rid of it. This avoids a potential attack where clients waste our
memory.
Note that we do have to replace it with a flag, because some of the
flush-packet logic checks whether we've seen any valid commands or keys.

Rather than pulling the session-id string from the list of collected
capabilities, we can handle it as soon as we receive it. This gets us
closer to dropping the collected list entirely.
The behavior should be the same, with one exception. Previously if the
client sent us multiple session-id lines, we'd report only the first.
Now we'll pass each one along to trace2. This shouldn't matter in
practice, since clients shouldn't do that (and if they do, it's probably
sensible to log them all).
As this removes the last caller of the static has_capability(), we can
remove it, as well (and in fact we must to avoid -Wunused-function
complaining).

We get any "object-format" specified by the client by searching for it
in the collected list of capabilities the client sent. We can instead
just handle it as soon as they send it. This is slightly more efficient,
and gets us one step closer to dropping that collected list.
Note that we do still have to do our final hash check after receiving
all capabilities (because they might not have sent an object-format line
at all, and we still have to check that the default matches our
repository algorithm). Since the check_algorithm() function would now be
down to a single if() statement, I've just inlined it in its only
caller.
There should be no change of behavior here, except for two
broken-protocol cases:
- if the client sends multiple conflicting object-format capabilities
(which they should not), we'll now choose the last one rather than
the first. We could also detect and complain about the duplicates
quite easily now, which we could not before, but I didn't do so
here.
- if the client sends a bogus "object-format" with no equals sign,
we'll now say so, rather than "unknown object format: ''"

In the previous commit, the bitmap writing code learned to propagate
values from an existing hash-cache extension into the bitmap that it is
writing.
Now that that functionality exists, let's expose it by teaching the 'git
multi-pack-index' builtin to respect the `pack.writeBitmapHashCache`
option so that the hash-cache may be written at all.
Two minor points worth noting here:
- The 'git multi-pack-index write' sub-command didn't previously read
any configuration (instead this is handled in the base command). A
separate handler is added here to respect this write-specific
config option.
- I briefly considered adding a 'bitmap_flags' field to the static
options struct, but decided against it since it would require
plumbing through a new parameter to the write_midx_file() function.
Instead, a new MIDX-specific flag is added, which is translated to
the corresponding bitmap one.

When an old bitmap exists while writing a new one, we load it and build
a "reposition" table which maps bit positions of objects from the old
bitmap to their respective positions in the new bitmap. This can help
when we encounter a commit which was selected in both the old and new
bitmap, since we only need to permute its bit (not recompute it from
scratch).
We do not, however, repurpose existing namehash values in the case of
the hash-cache extension. There has been thus far no good reason to do
so, since all of the namehash values for objects in the new bitmap would
be populated during the traversal that was just performed by
pack-objects when generating single-pack reachability bitmaps.
But this isn't the case for multi-pack bitmaps, which are written via
`git multi-pack-index write --bitmap` and do not perform any traversal.
In this case all namehash values are set to zero, but we don't even
bother to check the `pack.writeBitmapHashcache` option anyway, so it
fails to matter.
There are two approaches we could take to fill in non-zero hash-cache
values:
- have either the multi-pack-index builtin run its own
traversal to attempt to fill in some values, or let a hypothetical
caller (like `pack-objects` when `repack` eventually drives the
`multi-pack-index` builtin) fill in the values they found during
their traversal
- or copy any existing namehash values that were stored in an
existing bitmap to their corresponding positions in the new bitmap
In a system where a repository is generally repacked with `git repack
--geometric=<d>` and occasionally repacked with `git repack -a`, the
hash-cache coverage will tend towards all objects.
Since populating the hash-cache is additive (i.e., doing so only helps
our delta search), any intermediate lack of full coverage is just fine.
So let's start by just propagating any values from the existing
hash-cache if we see one.
The next patch will respect the `pack.writeBitmapHashcache` option while
writing MIDX bitmaps, and then test this new behavior.

The pack-bitmap writer code is about to learn how to propagate values
from an existing hash-cache. To prepare, teach the test-bitmap helper to
dump the values from a bitmap's hash-cache extension in order to test
those changes.

We have a capabilities table that tells us what we should tell the
client we are capable of, and what to do when a client gives us a
particular command (e.g., "command=ls-refs"). But it doesn't tell us
what to do when the client sends us back a capability (e.g.,
"object-format=sha256"). We just collect them all in a strvec and hope
somebody can use them later.
Instead, let's provide a function pointer in the table to act on these.
This will eventually help us avoid collecting the strings, which will be
more efficient and less prone to mischief.
Using the new method is optional, which helps in two ways:
- we can move existing capabilities over to this new system gradually
in individual commits
- some capabilities we don't actually do anything with anyway. For
example, the client is free to say "agent=git/1.2.3" to us, but we
do not act on the information in any way.
