We taught rev-list a new way to separate options from revisions in
19e8789b23 (revision: allow --end-of-options to end option parsing,
2019-08-06), but rev-parse uses its own parser. It should know about
--end-of-options not only for consistency, but because it may be
presented with similarly ambiguous cases. E.g., if a caller does:
git rev-parse "$rev" -- "$path"
to parse an untrusted input, then it will get confused if $rev contains
an option-like string like "--local-env-vars". Or even "--not-real",
which we'd keep as an option to pass along to rev-list.
Or even more importantly:
git rev-parse --verify "$rev"
can be confused by options, even though its purpose is safely parsing
untrusted input. On the plus side, it will always fail the --verify
part, as it will not have parsed a revision, so the caller will
generally "fail closed" rather than continue to use the untrusted
string. But it will still trigger whatever option was in "$rev"; this
should be mostly harmless, since rev-parse options are all read-only,
but I didn't carefully audit all paths.
This patch lets callers write:
git rev-parse --end-of-options "$rev" -- "$path"
and:
git rev-parse --verify --end-of-options "$rev"
which will both treat "$rev" always as a revision parameter. The latter
is a bit clunky. It would be nicer if we had defined "--verify" to
require that its next argument be the revision. But we have not
historically done so, and:
git rev-parse --verify -q "$rev"
does currently work. I added a test here to confirm that we didn't break
that.
A few implementation notes:
- We don't document --end-of-options explicitly in commands, but rather
in gitcli(7). So I didn't give it its own section in git-rev-parse(1).
But I did call it out specifically in the --verify section, and
include it in the examples, which should show best practices.
- We don't have to re-indent the main option-parsing block, because we
can combine our "did we see end of options" check with "does it start
with a dash". The exception is the pre-setup options, which need
their own block.
- We do however have to pull the "--" parsing out of the "does it start
with dash" block, because we want to parse it even if we've seen
--end-of-options.
- We'll leave "--end-of-options" in the output. This is probably not
technically necessary, as a careful caller will do:
git rev-parse --end-of-options $revs -- $paths
and anything in $revs will be resolved to an object id. However, it
does help a slightly less careful caller like:
git rev-parse --end-of-options $revs_or_paths
where a path "--foo" will remain in the output as long as it also
exists on disk. In that case, it's helpful to retain --end-of-options
to get passed along to rev-list, s it would otherwise see just
"--foo".

Because of the order in which we check options in rev-parse, there are a
few options we accept even after a "--". This is wrong, because the
whole point of "--" is to say "everything after here is a path". Let's
move the "did we see a dashdash" check (it's called "as_is" in the code)
to the top of the parsing loop.
Note there is one subtlety here. The options are ordered so that some
are checked before we even see if we're in a repository (they continue
the loop, and if we get past a certain point, then we do the repository
setup). By moving the as_is check higher, it's also in that "before
setup" section, even though it might look at the repository via
verify_filename(). However, this works out: we'd never set as_is until
we parse "--", and we don't parse that until after doing the setup.
An alternative here to avoid the subtlety is to put the as_is check at
the top of the post-setup options. But then every pre-setup option would
have to remember to check "if (!as_is && !strcmp(...))". So while this
is a bit magical, it's harder for future code to get wrong.

Since 610e2b9240 (blame: validate and peel the object names on the
ignore list, 2020-09-24) git blame reports checks if objects specified
with --ignore-rev and in files loaded with --ignore-revs-file and config
option blame.ignoreRevsFile are actual objects and dies if they aren't.
The intent is to report typos to the user.
This also breaks the ability to use a single ignore file for multiple
repositories. Typos are presumably less likely in files than on the
command line, so alerting is less useful here. Restore that feature by
skipping non-commits without dying.

For the past 15 years, we've used the hardcoded 64 as the length
limit of the filename of the output from the "git format-patch"
command. Since the value is shorter than the 80-column terminal, it
could grow without line wrapping a bit. At the same time, since the
value is longer than half of the 80-column terminal, we could fit
two or more of them in "ls" output on such a terminal if we allowed
to lower it.
Introduce a new command line option --filename-max-length=<n> and a
new configuration variable format.filenameMaxLength to override the
hardcoded default.
While we are at it, remove a check that the name of output directory
does not exceed PATH_MAX---this check is pointless in that by the
time control reaches the function, the caller would already have
done an equivalent of "mkdir -p", so if the system does not like an
overly long directory name, the control wouldn't have reached here,
and otherwise, we know that the system allowed the output directory
to exist. In the worst case, we will get an error when we try to
open the output file and handle the error correctly anyway.

After rebasing, ORIG_HEAD is supposed to point to the old HEAD of the
rebased branch. The code used find_unique_abbrev() to obtain the
object name of the old HEAD and wrote to both
.git/rebase-merge/orig-head (used by `rebase --abort` to go back to
the previous state) and to ORIG_HEAD. The buffer find_unique_abbrev()
gives back is volatile, unfortunately, and was overwritten after the
former file is written but before ORIG_FILE is written, leaving an
incorrect object name in it.
Avoid relying on the volatile buffer of find_unique_abbrev(), and
instead supply our own buffer to keep the object name.
I think that all of the users of head_hash should actually be using
opts->orig_head instead as passing a string rather than a struct
object_id around is a hang over from the scripted implementation. This
patch just fixes the immediate bug and adds a regression test based on
Caspar's reproduction example[1]. The users will be converted to use
struct object_id and head_hash removed in the next few commits.

We've never intended to support diff's --output option in format-patch.
And until baa4adc66a (parse-options: disable option abbreviation with
PARSE_OPT_KEEP_UNKNOWN, 2019-01-27), it was impossible to trigger. We
first parse the format-patch options before handing the remainder off to
setup_revisions(). Before that commit, we'd accept "--output=foo" as an
abbreviation for "--output-directory=foo". But afterwards, we don't
check abbreviations, and --output gets passed to the diff code.
This results in nonsense behavior and bugs. The diff code will have
opened a filehandle at rev.diffopt.file, but we'll overwrite that with
our own handles that we open for each individual patch file. So the
--output file will always just be empty. But worse, the diff code also
sets rev.diffopt.close_file, so log_tree_commit() will close the
filehandle itself. And then the main loop in cmd_format_patch() will try
to close it again, resulting in a double-free.
The simplest solution would be to just disallow --output with
format-patch, as nobody ever intended it to work. However, we have
accidentally documented it (because format-patch includes diff-options).
And it does work with "git log", which writes the whole output to the
specified file. It's easy enough to make that work for format-patch,
too: it's really the same as --stdout, but pointed at a specific file.
We can detect the use of the --output option by the "close_file" flag
(note that we can't use rev.diffopt.file, since the diff setup will
otherwise set it to stdout). So we just need to unset that flag, but
don't have to do anything else. Our situation is otherwise exactly like
--stdout (note that we don't fclose() the file, but nor does the stdout
case; exiting the program takes care of that for us).

The --stdout and --output-directory options are mutually exclusive, but
it's hard to tell from reading the code. We have three separate
conditionals that check for use_stdout, and it's only after we've set up
the output_directory fully that we check whether the user also specified
--stdout.
Instead, let's check the exclusion explicitly first, then have a single
conditional that handles stdout versus an output directory. This is
slightly easier to follow now, and also will keep things sane when we
add another output mode in a future patch.
We'll add a few tests as well, covering the mutual exclusion and the
fact that we are not confused by a configured output directory.

The -L option is documented to accept no pathspec, but the
command line option parser has allowed the combination without
checking so far. Ensure that there is no pathspec when the -L
option is in effect to fix this.
Incidentally, this change fixes another bug in the command line
option parser, which has allowed the -L option used together
with the --follow option. Because the latter requires exactly
one path given, but the former takes no pathspec, they become
mutually incompatible automatically. Because the -L option
follows renames on its own, there is no reason to give --follow
at the same time.
The new tests say they may fail with "-L and --follow being
incompatible" instead of "-L and pathspec being incompatible".
Currently the expected failure can come only from the latter, but
this is to futureproof them, in case we decide to add code to
explicititly die on -L and --follow used together.

hashmap_free(), hashmap_free_entries(), and hashmap_free_() have existed
for a while, but aren't necessarily the clearest names, especially with
hashmap_partial_clear() being added to the mix and lazy-initialization
now being supported. Peff suggested we adopt the following names[1]:
- hashmap_clear() - remove all entries and de-allocate any
hashmap-specific data, but be ready for reuse
- hashmap_clear_and_free() - ditto, but free the entries themselves
- hashmap_partial_clear() - remove all entries but don't deallocate
table
- hashmap_partial_clear_and_free() - ditto, but free the entries
This patch provides the new names and converts all existing callers over
to the new naming scheme.

In blame.c::cmd_blame, we send the 'path' field of the 'sb' 'struct
blame_scoreboard' as the 'path' argument to
'line-range.c::parse_range_arg', but 'sb.path' is not set yet; it's set
to the local variable 'path' a few lines later at line 1137.
This 'path' argument is only used in 'parse_range_arg' if we are blaming
a funcname, i.e. `git blame -L :<funcname> <path>`, and in that case it
is sent to 'parse_range_funcname', where it is used to determine if a
userdiff driver should be used for said <path> to match the given
funcname.
Since 'path' is yet unset, the userdiff driver is never used, so we fall
back to the default funcname regex, which is usually not appropriate for
paths that are set to use a specific userdiff driver, and thus either we
match some unrelated lines, or we die with
fatal: -L parameter '<funcname>' starting at line 1: no match
This has been the case ever since `git blame` learned to blame a
funcname in 13b8f68c1f (log -L: :pattern:file syntax to find by
funcname, 2013-03-28).
Enable funcname blaming for paths using specific userdiff drivers by
initializing 'sb.path' earlier in 'cmd_blame', when some of its other
fields are initialized, so that it is set when passed to
'parse_range_arg'.
Add a regression test in 'annotate-tests.sh', which is sourced in
t8001-annotate.sh and t8002-blame.sh, leveraging an existing file used
to test the userdiff patterns in t4018-diff-funcname.
Also, use 'sb.path' instead of 'path' when constructing the error
message at line 1114, for consistency.

During stateless packfile negotiation where a depth is given, stateless
RPC clients (e.g. git-remote-curl) will send multiple upload-pack
requests with the first containing only the
wants/shallows/deepens/filters and the subsequent containing haves/done.
When upload-pack handles such requests, entering get_common_commits
without checking whether the client has hung up can result in unexpected
EOF during the negotiation loop and a die() with message "fatal: the
remote end hung up unexpectedly".
Real world effects include:
- A client speaking to git-http-backend via a server that doesn't check
the exit codes of CGIs (e.g. mod_cgi) doesn't know and doesn't care
about the fatal. It continues to process the response body as normal.
- A client speaking to a server that does check the exit code and
returns an errant HTTP status as a result will fail with the message
"error: RPC failed; HTTP 500 curl 22 The requested URL returned error:
500."
- Admins running servers that surface the failure must workaround it by
patching code that handles execution of git-http-backend to ignore exit
codes or take other heuristic approaches.
- Admins may have to deal with "hung up unexpectedly" log spam related
to the failures even in cases where the exit code isn't surfaced as an
HTTP server-side error status.
To avoid these EOF related fatals, have upload-pack gently peek for an
EOF between the sending of shallow/unshallow lines (followed by flush)
and the reading of client haves. If the client has hung up at this
point, exit normally.

Add a new test-tool command named 'fast-rebase', which is a
super-slimmed down and nowhere near as capable version of 'git rebase'.
'test-tool fast-rebase' is not currently planned for usage in the
testsuite, but is here for two purposes:
1) Demonstrate the desired API of merge-ort. In particular,
fast-rebase takes advantage of the separation of the merging
operation from the updating of the index and working tree, to
allow it to pick N commits, but only update the index and working
tree once at the end. Look for the calls to
merge_incore_nonrecursive() and merge_switch_to_result().
2) Provide a convenient benchmark that isn't polluted by the heavy
disk writing and forking of unnecessary processes that comes from
sequencer.c and merge-recursive.c. fast-rebase is not meant to
replace sequencer.c, just give ideas on how sequencer.c can be
changed. Updating sequencer.c with these goals is probably a
large amount of work; writing a simple targeted command with
no documentation, less-than-useful help messages, numerous
limitations in terms of flags it can accept and situations it can
handle, and which is flagged off from users is a much easier
interim step.

The ref-filter code does not correctly handle commit or tag messages
that use CRLF as the line terminator. Such messages can be created with
the `--cleanup=verbatim` option of `git commit` and `git tag`, or by
using `git commit-tree` directly.
The function `find_subpos` in ref-filter.c looks for two consecutive
LFs to find the end of the subject line, a sequence which is absent in
messages using CRLF. This results in the whole message being parsed as
the subject line (`%(contents:subject)`), and the body of the message
(`%(contents:body)`) being empty.
Moreover, in `copy_subject`, which wants to return the subject as a
single line, '\n' is replaced by space, but '\r' is
untouched.
This impacts the output of `git branch`, `git tag` and `git
for-each-ref`.
This behaviour is a regression for `git branch --verbose`, which
bisects down to 949af0684c (branch: use ref-filter printing APIs,
2017-01-10).
Adjust the ref-filter code to be more lenient by hardening the logic in
`copy_subject` and `find_subpos` to correctly parse messages containing
CRLF.
Add a new test script, 't3920-crlf-messages.sh', to test the behaviour
of commands using either the ref-filter or the pretty APIs with messages
using CRLF line endings. The function `test_crlf_subject_body_and_contents`
can be used to test that the `--format` option of `branch`, `tag`,
`for-each-ref`, `log` and `show` correctly displays the subject, body
and raw content of commit and tag messages using CRLF. Test the
output of `branch`, `tag` and `for-each-ref` with such commits.

In demultiplex_sideband(), there are two oddities when we check an
incoming packet:
- if it has zero length, then we assume it's a flush packet. This
means we fail to notice the difference between a real flush and a
true zero-length packet that's missing its sideband designator. It's
not a huge problem in practice because we'd never send a zero-length
data packet (even our keepalives are otherwise-empty sideband-1
packets).
But it would be nice to detect and report the error, since it's
likely to cause other confusion (we think the other side flushed,
but they do not).
- we try to detect packets missing their designator by checking for
"if (len < 1)". But this will never trigger for "len == 0"; we've
already detected that and left the function before then.
It _could_ detect a negative "len" parameter. But in that case, the
error message is wrong. The issue is not "no sideband" but rather
"eof while reading the packet". However, this can't actually be
triggered in practice, because neither of the two callers uses
pkt_read's GENTLE_ON_EOF flag. Which means they'd die with "the
remote end hung up unexpectedly" before we even get here.
So this truly is dead code.
We can improve these cases by passing in a pkt-line status to the
demultiplexer, and by having recv_sideband() use GENTLE_ON_EOF. This
gives us two improvements:
- we can now reliably detect flush packets, and will report a normal
packet missing its sideband designator as an error
- we'll report an eof with a more detailed "protocol error: eof while
reading sideband packet", rather than the generic "the remote end
hung up unexpectedly"
- when we see an eof, we'll flush the sideband scratch buffer, which
may provide some hints from the remote about why they hung up
(though note we already flush on newlines, so it's likely that most
such messages already made it through)
In some sense this patch goes against fbd76cd450 (sideband: reverse its
dependency on pkt-line, 2019-01-16), which caused the sideband code not
to depend on the pkt-line code. But that commit was really just trying
to deal with the circular header dependency. The two modules are
conceptually interlinked, and it was just trying to keep things
compiling. And indeed, there's a sticking point in this patch: because
pkt-line.h includes sideband.h, we can't add the reverse include we need
for the sideband code to have an "enum packet_read_status" parameter.
Nor can we forward declare it, because you can't forward declare an enum
in C. However, C does guarantee that enums fit in an int, so we can just
use that type.
One alternative would be for the callers to check themselves that they
got something sane from the pkt-line code. But besides duplicating
logic, this gets quite tricky. Any error condition requires flushing the
sideband #2 scratch buffer, which only demultiplex_sideband() knows how
to do.

If we encounter an error while checking out an explicit path, we print a
message to stderr but do not actually exit with a non-zero code. While
this is a plumbing command and the behavior goes all the way back to
33db5f4d90 (Add a "checkout-cache" command which does what the name
suggests., 2005-04-09), this is almost certainly an oversight:
- we _do_ return an exit code from checkout_file(); the caller just
never reads it
- errors while checking out all paths (with "-a") do result in a
non-zero exit code.
- it would be quite unusual not to use the exit code for an error,
as otherwise the caller has no idea the command failed except by
scraping stderr
To keep our tests simple and portable, we can use the most obvious
error: asking to checkout a path which is not in the index at all.

If checkout-index is given --stage=all for a specific path, it will try
to write stages 1-3 (if present) for that path to temporary files.
However, if the file is present only at stage 0, it writes nothing but
gives a confusing message:
$ git checkout-index --stage=all -- Makefile
git checkout-index: Makefile does not exist at stage 4
This is nonsense. There is no stage 4 (it's just an internal enum value
we use for "all"), and the documentation clearly states:
Paths which only have a stage 0 entry will always be omitted from the
output.
Here it's talking about the list of tempfiles written to stdout, but it
seems clear that this case was not meant to be an error. We even have a
test which covers it, but it only checks that the command reports an
exit code of 0, not its stderr. And it reports 0 only because of another
bug which fails to propagate errors (which will be fixed in a subsequent
patch).
So let's make the test more thorough. We'll also cover the case that we
found _no_ entry, not even a stage zero, which should still be an error.
However, because of the other bug, we'll have to mark this as expecting
failure for the moment.

Change the exit code for the likes of "git remote add/rename" to exit
with 2 if the remote in question doesn't exist, and 3 if it
does. Before we'd just die() and exit with the general 128 exit code.
This changes the output message from e.g.:
fatal: remote origin already exists.
To:
error: remote origin already exists.
Which I believe is a feature, since we generally use "fatal" for the
generic errors, and "error" for the more specific ones with a custom
exit code, but this part of the change may break code that already
relies on stderr parsing (not that we ever supported that...).
The motivation for this is a discussion around some code in GitLab's
gitaly which wanted to check this, and had to parse stderr to do so:
https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitaly/-/merge_requests/2695
It's worth noting as an aside that a method of checking this that
doesn't rely on that is to check with "git config" whether the value
in question does or doesn't exist. That introduces a TOCTOU race
condition, but on the other hand this code (e.g. "git remote add")
already has a TOCTOU race.
We go through the config.lock for the actual setting of the config,
but the pseudocode logic is:
read_config();
check_config_and_arg_sanity();
save_config();
So e.g. if a sleep() is added right after the remote_is_configured()
check in add() we'll clobber remote.NAME.url, and add another (usually
duplicate) remote.NAME.fetch entry (and other values, depending on
invocation).

Similar to the previous commit, since the "recursive" backend relies on
unpack_trees() to check if unstaged or untracked files would be
overwritten by a merge, and unpack_trees() does not understand renames
-- it has false positives and false negatives. Once it has run, since
it updates as it goes, merge-recursive then has to handle completing the
merge as best it can despite extra changes in the working copy.
However, this is not just an issue for dirty files, but also for
untracked files because directory renames can cause file contents to
need to be written to a location that was not tracked on either side of
history.
Since the "ort" backend does the complete merge inmemory, and only
updates the index and working copy as a post-processing step, if there
are untracked files in the way it can simply abort the merge much like
checkout does.
Update t6423 to reflect the better merge abilities and expectations for
ort, while still leaving the best-case-as-good-as-recursive-can-do

The "recursive" backend relies on unpack_trees() to check if unstaged
changes would be overwritten by a merge, but unpack_trees() does not
understand renames -- and once it returns, it has already written many
updates to the working tree and index. As such, "recursive" had to do a
special 4-way merge where it would need to also treat the working copy
as an extra source of differences that we had to carefully avoid
overwriting and resulting in moving files to new locations to avoid
conflicts.
The "ort" backend, by contrast, does the complete merge inmemory, and
only updates the index and working copy as a post-processing step. If
there are dirty files in the way, it can simply abort the merge.

However, there were cases where the :FILENAME annotation was
accidentally left off, due to merge-recursive's

When a file is renamed and has content conflicts, merge-recursive does
not have some stages for the old filename and some stages for the new
filename in the index; instead it copies all the stages corresponding to
the old filename over to the corresponding locations for the new
filename, so that there are three higher order stages all corresponding
to the new filename. Doing things this way makes it easier for the user
to access the different versions and to resolve the conflict (no need to
manually 'git rm' the old version as well as 'git add' the new one).
rename/deletes should be handled similarly -- there should be two stages
for the renamed file rather than just one. We do not want to
destabilize merge-recursive right now, so instead update relevant tests
to have different expectations depending on whether the "recursive" or
"ort" merge strategies are in use.

When files are renamed and modified, we need to do three-way content
merges to get the appropriate content in the right location. When we
have a rename/rename(1to2) conflict (both sides rename the same file,
but differently), that merged content should be placed in each of the
two resulting files. merge-recursive handled that fine when that was
all that was involved, but when one or more of the two resulting files
were ALSO involved in a directory/file conflict, it failed to propagate
the merged content to that file. Unfortunately, the one test in t6416
that touched on this combination of cases had been coded to not expect
the merged contents to be present.

conflicts are not well representable in the index data structure, and
required special extra code to handle. But then when it was discovered
that rename/delete conflicts could also be involved in directory/file
conflicts, the special directory/file conflict handling code had to be
copied to the rename/delete codepath. ...and then it had to be copied
for modify/delete, and for rename/rename(1to2) conflicts, ...and yet it
still missed some. Further, when it was discovered that there were also
file/submodule conflicts and submodule/directory conflicts, we needed to
copy the special submodule handling code to all the special cases
throughout the codebase.
And then it was discovered that our handling of directory/file conflicts
was suboptimal because it would create untracked files to store the
contents of the conflicting file, which would not be cleaned up if
someone were to run a 'git merge --abort' or 'git rebase --abort'. It
was also difficult or scary to try to add or remove the index entries
corresponding to these files given the directory/file conflict in the
index. But changing merge-recursive.c to handle these correctly was a
royal pain because there were so many sites in the code with similar but
not identical code for handling directory/file/submodule conflicts that
would all need to be updated.
I have worked hard to push all directory/file/submodule conflict
handling in merge-ort through a single codepath, and avoid creating
untracked files for storing tracked content (it does record things at
alternate paths, but makes sure they have higher-order stages in the
index).
Since updating merge-recursive is too much work and we don't want to
destabilize it, instead update the testsuite to have different
expectations for relevant directory/file/submodule conflict tests.

In some tests, the default branch name is part of aligned output. As we
want to change the default branch name to `main`, which is two
characters shorter than the old default branch name, we will have to
adjust those tests.
Since we use the original default branch name until the entire test
suite has been adjusted accordingly, the touched test cases need to be
guarded by a prereq (that is so far disabled so that they are skipped
for now).
The test cases that depend on those test cases that are newly guarded by

In preparation for that, we adjust a test case that wants to rename the
default branch to a different name that however has the same length. We
use `none` as that name because it matches the length of `main`.
As this test case cannot possibly pass until the default branch name is

To allow for an incremental conversion to a new default main branch
name, let's introduce `GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_MAIN_BRANCH_NAME`. This
environment variable can be set at the top of each converted test
script, overriding the default main branch name to use when initializing
new repositories (or cloning empty repositories).
Note: the `GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_MAIN_BRANCH_NAME` is _not_ intended to be
used manually; many tests require a specific main branch name and cannot
simply work with another one. This `GIT_TEST_*` variable is meant purely
for the transitional period while the entire test suite is converted to
use `main` as the initial branch name by default.
We also introduce the `PREPARE_FOR_MAIN_BRANCH` prereq that determines
whether the default main branch name is `main`, and adjust a couple of
test functions to use it. This prereq will be used to temporarily
disable a couple test cases to allow for adjusting the test script
incrementally. Once an entire test is adjusted, we will adjust the test
so that it is run with `GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_MAIN_BRANCH_NAME=main`.

rewrote the code for setting the committer date to use fmt_ident(),

- we use the author email string instead of the committer email
- when parsing the committer ident, we used the wrong variable to

We set "use warnings" in most of our perl code to catch problems. But as
the name implies, warnings just emit a message to stderr and don't
otherwise affect the program. So our tests are quite likely to miss that
warnings are being spewed, as most of them do not look at stderr.
We could ask perl to make all warnings fatal, but this is likely
annoying for non-developers, who would rather have a running program
with a warning than something that refuses to work at all.
So instead, let's teach the perl code to respect an environment variable
(GIT_PERL_FATAL_WARNINGS) to increase the severity of the warnings. This
can be set for day-to-day running if people want to be really pedantic,
but the primary use is to trigger it within the test suite.
We could also trigger that for every test run, but likewise even the
tests failing may be annoying to distro builders, etc (just as -Werror
would be for compiling C code). So we'll tie it to a special test-mode
variable (GIT_TEST_PERL_FATAL_WARNINGS) that can be set in the
environment or as a Makefile knob, and we'll automatically turn the knob
when DEVELOPER=1 is set. That should give developers and CI the more
careful view without disrupting normal users or packagers.
Note that the mapping from the GIT_TEST_* form to the GIT_* form in
test-lib.sh is necessary even if they had the same name: the perl
scripts need it to be normalized to a perl truth value, and we also have
to make sure it's exported (we might have gotten it from the
environment, but we might also have gotten it from GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS
directly).

A patch changing a symlink into a file is written with 2 sections (in
the code, represented as "struct patch"): firstly, the deletion of the
symlink, and secondly, the creation of the file. When applying that
patch with -R, the sections are reversed, so we get:
(1) creation of a symlink, then
(2) deletion of a file.
This causes an issue when the "deletion of a file" section is checked,
because Git observes that the so-called file is not a file but a
symlink, resulting in a "wrong type" error message.
What we want is:
(1) deletion of a file, then
(2) creation of a symlink.
In the code, this is reflected in the behavior of previous_patch() when
invoked from check_preimage() when the deletion is checked. Creation
then deletion means that when the deletion is checked, previous_patch()
returns the creation section, triggering a mode conflict resulting in
the "wrong type" error message. But deletion then creation means that
when the deletion is checked, previous_patch() returns NULL, so the
deletion mode is checked against lstat, which is what we want.
There are also other ways a patch can contain 2 sections referencing the
same file, for example, in 7a07841c0b ("git-apply: handle a patch that
touches the same path more than once better", 2008-06-27). "git apply
-R" fails in the same way, and this commit makes this case succeed.
Therefore, when building the list of sections, build them in reverse
order (by adding to the front of the list instead of the back) when -R
is passed.

In 2b695ecd74 (t5500: count objects through stderr, not trace,
2020-05-06) we tried to ensure that the "Total 3" message could be
grepped in Git's output, even if it sometimes got chopped up into
multiple lines in the trace machinery.
However, the first instance where this mattered now goes through the
sideband machinery, where it is _still_ possible for messages to get
chopped up: it *is* possible for the standard error stream to be sent
byte-for-byte and hence it can be easily interrupted. Meaning: it is
possible for the single line that we're looking for to be chopped up
into multiple sideband packets, with a primary packet being delivered
between them.
This seems to happen occasionally in the `vs-test` part of our CI
builds, i.e. with binaries built using Visual C, but not when building
with GCC or clang; The symptom is that t5500.43 fails to find a line
matching `remote: Total 3` in the `log` file, which ends in something
along these lines:
remote: Tota
remote: l 3 (delta 0), reused 0 (delta 0), pack-reused 0
This should not happen, though: we have code in `demultiplex_sideband()`
_specifically_ to stitch back together lines that were delivered in
separate sideband packets.
However, this stitching was broken in a subtle way in fbd76cd450
(sideband: reverse its dependency on pkt-line, 2019-01-16): before that
change, incomplete sideband lines would not be flushed upon receiving a
primary packet, but after that patch, they would be.
The subtleness of this bug comes from the fact that it is easy to get
confused by the ambiguous meaning of the `break` keyword: after writing
the primary packet contents, the `break;` in the original version of
`recv_sideband()` does _not_ break out of the `while` loop, but instead
only ends the `switch` case:
while (!retval) {
[...]
switch (band) {
[...]
case 1:
/* Write the contents of the primary packet */
write_or_die(out, buf + 1, len);
/* Here, we do *not* break out of the loop, `retval` is unchanged */
break;
[...]
}
if (outbuf.len) {
/* Write any remaining sideband messages lacking a trailing LF */
strbuf_addch(&outbuf, '\n');
xwrite(2, outbuf.buf, outbuf.len);
}
In contrast, after fbd76cd450 (sideband: reverse its dependency on
pkt-line, 2019-01-16), the body of the `while` loop was extracted into
`demultiplex_sideband()`, crucially _including_ the logic to write
incomplete sideband messages:
switch (band) {
[...]
case 1:
*sideband_type = SIDEBAND_PRIMARY;
/* This does not break out of the loop: the loop is in the caller */
break;
[...]
}
cleanup:
[...]
/* This logic is now no longer _outside_ the loop but _inside_ */
if (scratch->len) {
strbuf_addch(scratch, '\n');
xwrite(2, scratch->buf, scratch->len);
}
The correct way to fix this is to return from `demultiplex_sideband()`
early. The caller will then write out the contents of the primary packet
and continue looping. The `scratch` buffer for incomplete sideband
messages is owned by that caller, and will continue to accumulate the
remainder(s) of those messages. The loop will only end once
`demultiplex_sideband()` returned non-zero _and_ did not indicate a
primary packet, which is the case only when we hit the `cleanup:` path,
in which we take care of flushing any unfinished sideband messages and
release the `scratch` buffer.
To ensure that this does not get broken again, we introduce a pair of
subcommands of the `pkt-line` test helper that specifically chop up the
sideband message and squeeze a primary packet into the middle.
Final note: The other test case touched by 2b695ecd74 (t5500: count
objects through stderr, not trace, 2020-05-06) is not affected by this
issue because the sideband machinery is not involved there.

Add a new diff option that enables ignoring changes whose all lines
(changed, removed, and added) match a given regular expression. This is
similar to the -I/--ignore-matching-lines option in standalone diff
utilities and can be used e.g. to ignore changes which only affect code
comments or to look for unrelated changes in commits containing a large
number of automatically applied modifications (e.g. a tree-wide string
replacement). The difference between -G/-S and the new -I option is
that the latter filters output on a per-change basis.
Use the 'ignore' field of xdchange_t for marking a change as ignored or
not. Since the same field is used by --ignore-blank-lines, identical
hunk emitting rules apply for --ignore-blank-lines and -I. These two
options can also be used together in the same git invocation (they are
complementary to each other).

Many of our test scripts have several "setup" tests. It's a lot easier
to say
./t0050-filesystem.sh --run=setup,9
in order to run all the setup tests as well as test #9, than it is to
track down what all the setup tests are and enter all their numbers in
the list. Also, I often find myself wanting to run just one or a couple
tests from the test file, but I don't know the numbering of any of the
tests -- to get it I either have to first run the whole test file (or
start counting by hand or figure out some other clever but non-obvious
tricks). It's really convenient to be able to just look at the test
description(s) and then run
./t6416-recursive-corner-cases.sh --run=symlink
or
./t6402-merge-rename.sh --run='setup,unnecessary update'
Add such an ability to test selection which relies on merely matching

Testcases 12b and 12c were both slightly weird; they were marked as
having a weird resolution, but with the note that even straightforward
simple rules can give weird results when the input is bizarre.
However, during optimization work for merge-ort, I discovered a
significant speedup that is possible if we add one more fairly
straightforward rule: we don't bother doing directory rename detection
if there are no new files added to the directory on the other side of
the history to be affected by the directory rename. This seems like an
obvious and straightforward rule, but there was one funny corner case
where directory rename detection could affect only existing files: the
funny corner case where two directories are renamed into each other on
opposite sides of history. In other words, it only results in a
different output for testcases 12b and 12c.
Since we already thought testcases 12b and 12c were weird anyway, and
because the optimization often has a significant effect on common cases
(but is entirely prevented if we can't change how 12b and 12c function),
let's add the additional rule and tweak how 12b and 12c work. Split
both testcases into two (one where we add no new files, and one where
the side that doesn't rename a given directory will add files to it),
and mark them with the new expectation.

Add a new testcase modelled on a real world repository example that
served multiple purposes:
* it uncovered a bug in the current directory rename detection
implementation.
* it is a good test of needing to do directory rename detection for
a series of commits instead of just one (and uses rebase instead
of just merge like all the other tests in this testfile).
* it is an excellent stress test for some of the optimizations in
my new merge-ort engine
I can expand on the final item later when I have submitted more of
merge-ort, but the bug is the main immediate concern. It arises as
follows:
* dir/subdir/ has several files
* almost all files in dir/subdir/ are renamed to folder/subdir/
* one of the files in dir/subdir/ is renamed to folder/subdir/newsubdir/
* If the other side of history (that doesn't do the renames) adds a
new file to dir/subdir/, where should it be placed after the merge?
The most obvious two choices are: (1) leave the new file in dir/subdir/,
don't make it follow the rename, and (2) move the new file to
folder/subdir/, following the rename of most the files. However,
there's a possible third choice here: (3) move the new file to
folder/subdir/newsubdir/. The choice reinforce the fact that
merge.directoryRenames=conflict is a good default, but when the merge
machinery needs to stick it somewhere and notify the user of the
possibility that they might want to place it elsewhere. Surprisingly,
the current code would always choose (3), while the real world
repository was clearly expecting (2) -- move the file along with where
the herd of files was going, not with the special exception.
The problem here is that for the majority of the file renames,
dir/subdir/ -> folder/subdir/
is actually represented as
dir/ -> folder/
This directory rename would have a big weight associated with it since
most the files followed that rename. However, we always consult the
most immediate directory first, and there is only one rename rule for
it:
dir/subdir/ -> folder/subdir/newsubdir/
Since this rule is the only one for mapping from dir/subdir/, it
automatically wins and that directory rename was followed instead of the
desired dir/subdir/ -> folder/subdir/.
Unfortunately, the fix is a bit involved so for now just add the
testcase documenting the issue.

The 'git maintenance (register|start)' subcommands add the current

often.
To make it simple for users to start background maintenance with a
recommended schedlue, update the 'maintenance.strategy' config option in
both the 'register' and 'start' subcommands. This allows users to
customize beyond the defaults using individual
'maintenance.<task>.schedule' options, but also the user can opt-out of

To provide an on-ramp for users to use background maintenance without
several 'git config' commands, create a 'maintenance.strategy' config
option. Currently, the only important value is 'incremental' which
assigns the following schedule:
* gc: never
* prefetch: hourly
* commit-graph: hourly
* loose-objects: daily
* incremental-repack: daily
These tasks are chosen to minimize disruptions to foreground Git
commands and use few compute resources.
The 'maintenance.strategy' is intended as a baseline that can be
customzied further by manually assigning 'maintenance.<task>.enabled'
and 'maintenance.<task>.schedule' config options, which will override
any recommendation from 'maintenance.strategy'. This operates similarly
to config options like 'feature.experimental' which operate as "meta"
config options that change default config values.
This presents a way forward for updating the 'incremental' strategy in
the future or adding new strategies. For example, a potential strategy
could be to include a 'full' strategy that runs the 'gc' task weekly
and no other tasks by default.

Fast-import stores its marks in a trie-like structure made of mark_set
structs. Each struct has a fixed size (1024). If our id number is too
large to fit in the struct, then we allocate a new struct which shifts
the id number by 10 bits. Our original struct becomes a child node
of this new layer, and the new struct becomes the top level of the trie.
This scheme was broken by ddddf8d7e2 (fast-import: permit reading
multiple marks files, 2020-02-22). Before then, we had a top-level
"marks" pointer, and the push-down worked by assigning the new top-level
struct to "marks". But after that commit, insert_mark() takes a pointer
to the mark_set, rather than using the global "marks". It continued to
assign to the global "marks" variable during the push down, which was
wrong for two reasons:
- we added a call in option_rewrite_submodules() which uses a separate
mark set; pushing down on "marks" is outright wrong here. We'd
corrupt the "marks" set, and we'd fail to correctly store any
submodule mappings with an id over 1024.
- the other callers passed "marks", but the push-down was still wrong.
In read_mark_file(), we take the pointer to the mark_set as a
parameter. So even though insert_mark() was updating the global
"marks", the local pointer we had in read_mark_file() was not
updated. As a result, we'd add a new level when needed, but then the
next call to insert_mark() wouldn't see it! It would then allocate a
new layer, which would also not be seen, and so on. Lookups for the
lost layers obviously wouldn't work, but before we even hit any
lookup stage, we'd generally run out of memory and die.
Our tests didn't notice either of these cases because they didn't have
enough marks to trigger the push-down behavior. The new tests in t9304
cover both cases (and fail without this patch).
We can solve the problem by having insert_mark() take a pointer-to-pointer
of the top-level of the set. Then our push down can assign to it in a
way that the caller actually sees. Note the subtle reordering in
option_rewrite_submodules(). Our call to read_mark_file() may modify our
top-level set pointer, so we have to wait until after it returns to
assign its value into the string_list.

Recently, a user had an issue due to combining
fetch.writeCommitGraph=true with core.commitGraph=false. The root bug
has been resolved by preventing commit-graph writes when
core.commitGraph is disabled. This happens inside the 'git commit-graph
write' command, but we can be more aware of this situation and prevent

The core.commitGraph config setting can be set to 'false' to prevent
parsing commits from the commit-graph file(s). This causes an issue when
trying to write with "--split" which needs to distinguish between
commits that are in the existing commit-graph layers and commits that
are not. The existing mechanism uses parse_commit() and follows by
checking if there is a 'graph_pos' that shows the commit was parsed from
the commit-graph file.
When core.commitGraph=false, we do not parse the commits from the
commit-graph and 'graph_pos' indicates that no commits are in the
existing file. The --split logic moves forward creating a new layer on
top that holds all reachable commits, then possibly merges down into
those layers, resulting in duplicate commits. The previous change makes
that merging process more robust to such a situation in case it happens
in the written commit-graph data.
The easy answer here is to avoid writing a commit-graph if reading the
commit-graph is disabled. Since the resulting commit-graph will would not
be read by subsequent Git processes. This is more natural than forcing
core.commitGraph to be true for the 'write' process.

Thomas reported [1] that a "git fetch" command was failing with an error
saying "unexpected duplicate commit id". The root cause is that they had
fetch.writeCommitGraph enabled which generates commit-graph chains, and
this instance was merging two layers that both contained the same commit
ID.
[1] https://lore.kernel.org/git/55f8f00c-a61c-67d4-889e-a9501c596c39@virtuell-zuhause.de/
The initial assumption is that Git would not write a commit ID into a
commit-graph layer if it already exists in a lower commit-graph layer.
Somehow, this specific case did get into that situation, leading to this
error.
While unexpected, this isn't actually invalid (as long as the two layers
agree on the metadata for the commit). When we parse a commit that does
not have a graph_pos in the commit_graph_data_slab, we use binary search
in the commit-graph layers to find the commit and set graph_pos. That
position is never used again in this case. However, when we parse a
commit from the commit-graph file, we load its parents from the
commit-graph and assign graph_pos at that point. If those parents were
already parsed from the commit-graph, then nothing needs to be done.
Otherwise, this graph_pos is a valid position in the commit-graph so we
can parse the parents, when necessary.
Thus, this die() is too aggressive. The easiest thing to do would be to
ignore the duplicates.
If we only ignore the duplicates, then we will produce a commit-graph
that has identical commit IDs listed in adjacent positions. This excess
data will never be removed from the commit-graph, which could cascade
into significantly bloated file sizes.
Thankfully, we can collapse the list to erase the duplicate commit
pointers. This allows us to get the end result we want without extra
memory costs and minimal CPU time.
The root cause is due to disabling core.commitGraph, which prevents
parsing commits from the lower layers during a 'git commit-graph write
--split' command. Since we use the 'graph_pos' value to determine
whether a commit is in a lower layer, we never discover that those
commits are already in the commit-graph chain and add them to the top
layer. This layer is then merged down, creating duplicates.
The test added in t5324-split-commit-graph.sh fails without this change.
However, we still have not completely removed the need for this
duplicate check. That will come in a follow-up change.

The auto condition for the commit-graph maintenance task walks refs
looking for commits that are not in the commit-graph file. This was
added in 4ddc79b2 (maintenance: add auto condition for commit-graph
task, 2020-09-17) but was left untested.
The initial goal of this change was to demonstrate the feature works
properly by adding tests. However, there was an off-by-one error that
caused the basic tests around maintenance.commit-graph.auto=1 to fail
when it should work.
The subtlety is that if a ref tip is not in the commit-graph, then we
were not adding that to the total count. In the test, we see that we
have only added one commit since our last commit-graph write, so the
auto condition would say there is nothing to do.
The fix is simple: add the check for the commit-graph position to see
that the tip is not in the commit-graph file before starting our walk.
Since this happens before adding to the DFS stack, we do not need to
clear our (currently empty) commit list.
This does add some extra complexity for the test, because we also want
to verify that the walk along the parents actually does some work. This
means we need to add at least two commits in a row without writing the
commit-graph. However, we also need to make sure no additional refs are
pointing to the middle of this list or else the for_each_ref() in
should_write_commit_graph() might visit these commits as tips instead of
doing a DFS walk. Hence, the last two commits are added with "git
commit" instead of "test_commit".

Commit f08cbf60fe (index-pack: make quantum of work smaller, 2020-09-08)
refactored the main loop in threaded_second_pass(), but also deleted the
call to display_progress() at the top of the loop. This means that users
typically see no progress at all during the delta resolution phase (and
for large repositories, Git appears to hang).
This looks like an accident that was unrelated to the intended change of
that commit, since we continue to update nr_resolved_deltas in
resolve_delta(). Let's restore the call to get that progress back.
We'll also add a test that confirms we generate the expected progress.
This isn't perfect, as it wouldn't catch a bug where progress was
delayed to the end. That was probably possible to trigger when receiving
a thin pack, because we'd eventually call display_progress() from
fix_unresolved_deltas(), but only once after doing all the work.

demonstrates this particular bug and its fix. And we can't do better

Way back in f9b8908b (commit.c: use generation numbers for
in_merge_bases(), 2018-05-01), a heuristic was used to short-circuit
the in_merge_bases() walk. This works just fine as long as the
caller is checking only two commits, but when there are multiple,
there is a possibility that this heuristic is _very wrong_.
Some code moves since then has changed this method to
repo_in_merge_bases_many() inside commit-reach.c. The heuristic
computes the minimum generation number of the "reference" list, then
compares this number to the generation number of the "commit".
In a recent topic, a test was added that used in_merge_bases_many()
to test if a commit was reachable from a number of commits pulled
from a reflog. However, this highlighted the problem: if any of the
reference commits have a smaller generation number than the given
commit, then the walk is skipped _even if there exist some with
higher generation number_.
This heuristic is wrong! It must check the MAXIMUM generation number
of the reference commits, not the MINIMUM.
This highlights a testing gap. t6600-test-reach.sh covers many
methods in commit-reach.c, including in_merge_bases() and
get_merge_bases_many(), but since these methods either restrict to
two input commits or actually look for the full list of merge bases,
they don't check this heuristic!
Add a possible input to "test-tool reach" that tests
in_merge_bases_many() and add tests to t6600-test-reach.sh that
cover this heuristic. This includes cases for the reference commits
having generation above and below the generation of the input commit,
but also having maximum generation below the generation of the input
commit.
The fix itself is to swap min_generation with a max_generation in
repo_in_merge_bases_many().

The format.useAutoBase configuration option exists to allow users to
enable '--base=auto' for format-patch by default.
This can sometimes lead to poor workflow, due to unexpected failures
when attempting to format an ancient patch:
$ git format-patch -1 <an old commit>
fatal: base commit shouldn't be in revision list
This can be very confusing, as it is not necessarily immediately obvious
that the user requested a --base (since this was in the configuration,
not on the command line).
We do want --base=auto to fail when it cannot provide a suitable base,
as it would be equally confusing if a formatted patch did not include
the base information when it was requested.
Teach format.useAutoBase a new mode, "whenAble". This mode will cause
format-patch to attempt to include a base commit when it can. However,
if no valid base commit can be found, then format-patch will continue
formatting the patch without a base commit.
In order to avoid making yet another branch name unusable with --base,
do not teach --base=whenAble or --base=whenable.
Instead, refactor the base_commit option to use a callback, and rely on
the global configuration variable auto_base.
This does mean that a user cannot request this optional base commit
generation from the command line. However, this is likely not too
valuable. If the user requests base information manually, they will be
immediately informed of the failure to acquire a suitable base commit.
This allows the user to make an informed choice about whether to
continue the format.
Add tests to cover the new mode of operation for --base.

Both fetch and push support pattern refspecs which allow fetching or
pushing references that match a specific pattern. Because these patterns
are globs, they have somewhat limited ability to express more complex
situations.
For example, suppose you wish to fetch all branches from a remote except
for a specific one. To allow this, you must setup a set of refspecs
which match only the branches you want. Because refspecs are either
explicit name matches, or simple globs, many patterns cannot be
expressed.
Add support for a new type of refspec, referred to as "negative"
refspecs. These are prefixed with a '^' and mean "exclude any ref
matching this refspec". They can only have one "side" which always
refers to the source. During a fetch, this refers to the name of the ref
on the remote. During a push, this refers to the name of the ref on the
local side.
With negative refspecs, users can express more complex patterns. For
example:
git fetch origin refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/* ^refs/heads/dontwant
will fetch all branches on origin into remotes/origin, but will exclude
fetching the branch named dontwant.
Refspecs today are commutative, meaning that order doesn't expressly
matter. Rather than forcing an implied order, negative refspecs will
always be applied last. That is, in order to match, a ref must match at
least one positive refspec, and match none of the negative refspecs.
This is similar to how negative pathspecs work.

When doing combined diffs, we have two possible code paths:
- a slower one which independently diffs against each parent, applies
any filters, and then intersects the resulting paths
- a faster one which walks all trees simultaneously
When the diff options specify that we must do certain filters, like
pickaxe, then we always use the slow path, since the pickaxe code only
knows how to handle filepairs, not the n-parent entries generated for
combined diffs.
But there are two problems with the slow path:
1. It's slow. Running:
git rev-list HEAD | git diff-tree --stdin -r -c
in git.git takes ~3s on my machine. But adding "--find-object" to
that increases it to ~6s, even though find-object itself should
incur only a few extra oid comparisons. On linux.git, it's even
worse: 35s versus 215s.
2. It doesn't catch all cases where a particular path is interesting.
Consider a merge with parent blobs X and Y for a particular path,
and end result Z. That should be interesting according to "-c",
because the result doesn't match either parent. And it should be
interesting even with "--find-object=X", because "X" went away in
the merge.
But because we perform each pairwise diff independently, this
confuses the intersection code. The change from X to Z is still
interesting according to --find-object. But in the other parent we
went from Y to Z, so the diff appears empty! That causes the
intersection code to think that parent didn't change the path, and
thus it's not interesting for "-c".
This patch fixes both by implementing --find-object for the multitree
code. It's a bit unfortunate that we have to duplicate some logic from
diffcore-pickaxe, but this is the best we can do for now. In an ideal
world, all of the diffcore code would stop thinking about filepairs and
start thinking about n-parent sets, and we could use the multitree walk
with all of it.
Until then, there are some leftover warts:
- other pickaxe operations, like -S or -G, still suffer from both
problems. These would be hard to adapt because they rely on having
a diff_filespec() for each path to look at content. And we'd need to
define what an n-way "change" means in each case (probably easy for
"-S", which can compare counts, but not so clear for -G, which is
about grepping diffs).
- other options besides --find-object may cause us to use the slow
pairwise path, in which case we'll go back to producing a different
(wrong) answer for the X/Y/Z case above.
We may be able to hack around these, but I think the ultimate solution
will be a larger rewrite of the diffcore code. For now, this patch
improves one specific case but leaves the rest.

When a fetch with the --filter argument is made, the configured default
filter is set even if one already exists. This change was made in
5e46139376 ("builtin/fetch: remove unique promisor remote limitation",
2019-06-25) - in particular, changing from:
* If this is the FIRST partial-fetch request, we enable partial
* on this repo and remember the given filter-spec as the default
* for subsequent fetches to this remote.
to:
* If this is a partial-fetch request, we enable partial on
* this repo if not already enabled and remember the given
* filter-spec as the default for subsequent fetches to this
* remote.
(The given filter-spec is "remembered" even if there is already an
existing one.)
This is problematic whenever a lazy fetch is made, because lazy fetches
are made using "git fetch --filter=blob:none", but this will also happen
if the user invokes "git fetch --filter=<filter>" manually. Therefore,
restore the behavior prior to 5e46139376, which writes a filter-spec
only if the current fetch request is the first partial-fetch one (for
that remote).

Now that shortlog supports reading from trailers, it can be useful to
combine counts from multiple trailers, or between trailers and authors.
This can be done manually by post-processing the output from multiple
runs, but it's non-trivial to make sure that each name/commit pair is
counted only once.
This patch teaches shortlog to accept multiple --group options on the
command line, and pull data from all of them. That makes it possible to
run:
git shortlog -ns --group=author --group=trailer:co-authored-by
to get a shortlog that counts authors and co-authors equally.
The implementation is mostly straightforward. The "group" enum becomes a
bitfield, and the trailer key becomes a list. I didn't bother
implementing the multi-group semantics for reading from stdin. It would
be possible to do, but the existing matching code makes it awkward, and
I doubt anybody cares.
The duplicate suppression we used for trailers now covers authors and
committers as well (though in non-trailer single-group mode we can skip
the hash insertion and lookup, since we only see one value per commit).
There is one subtlety: we now care about the case when no group bit is
set (in which case we default to showing the author). The caller in
builtin/log.c needs to be adapted to ask explicitly for authors, rather
than relying on shortlog_init(). It would be possible with some
gymnastics to make this keep working as-is, but it's not worth it for a
single caller.

Trailers don't necessarily contain name/email identity values, so
shortlog has so far treated them as opaque strings. However, since many
trailers do contain identities, it's useful to treat them as such when
they can be parsed. That lets "-e" work as usual, as well as mailmap.
When they can't be parsed, we'll continue with the old behavior of
treating them as a single string (there's no new test for that here,

The completion tests used that name unnecessarily, and it is a

Since three of the touched test cases make use of the fact that two of

The term `master` has a loaded history that serves as a constant

perpetuate this and already started avoiding it.
The test suite uses variations of this name for branches other than the
default one. Apart from t3200, where we just addressed this in the
previous commit, those instances can be renamed in an automated manner
because they do not require any changes outside of the test script, so
let's do that.
Seeing as the touched branches have very little (if anything) to do with
the default branch, we choose to use a completely separate naming
scheme: `topic_<number>` (it cannot be `topic-<number>` because t5515
uses the `test_oid` machinery with the term, and that machinery uses
shell variables internally, whose names cannot contain dashes).
This trick was performed by this (GNU) sed invocation:

Add new subcommands to 'git maintenance' that start or stop background
maintenance using 'cron', when available. This integration is as simple
as I could make it, barring some implementation complications.
The schedule is laid out as follows:
0 1-23 * * * $cmd maintenance run --schedule=hourly
0 0 * * 1-6 $cmd maintenance run --schedule=daily
0 0 * * 0 $cmd maintenance run --schedule=weekly
where $cmd is a properly-qualified 'git for-each-repo' execution:
$cmd=$path/git --exec-path=$path for-each-repo --config=maintenance.repo
where $path points to the location of the Git executable running 'git
maintenance start'. This is critical for systems with multiple versions
of Git. Specifically, macOS has a system version at '/usr/bin/git' while
the version that users can install resides at '/usr/local/bin/git'
(symlinked to '/usr/local/libexec/git-core/git'). This will also use
your locally-built version if you build and run this in your development
environment without installing first.
This conditional schedule avoids having cron launch multiple 'git
for-each-repo' commands in parallel. Such parallel commands would likely
lead to the 'hourly' and 'daily' tasks competing over the object
database lock. This could lead to to some tasks never being run! Since
the --schedule=<frequency> argument will run all tasks with _at least_
the given frequency, the daily runs will also run the hourly tasks.
Similarly, the weekly runs will also run the daily and hourly tasks.
The GIT_TEST_CRONTAB environment variable is not intended for users to
edit, but instead as a way to mock the 'crontab [-l]' command. This
variable is set in test-lib.sh to avoid a future test from accidentally
running anything with the cron integration from modifying the user's
schedule. We use GIT_TEST_CRONTAB='test-tool crontab <file>' in our
tests to check how the schedule is modified in 'git maintenance
(start|stop)' commands.

In preparation for launching background maintenance from the 'git

commands update the new 'maintenance.repos' config option in the global
config so the background maintenance job knows which repositories to

These commands allow users to add a repository to the background

For example, a user can run 'git maintenance register' when no
background maintenance is running and it will not start the background
maintenance. A later update to start running background maintenance will
then pick up this repository automatically.
The opposite example is that a user can run 'git maintenance unregister'

Maintenance currently triggers when certain data-size thresholds are
met, such as number of pack-files or loose objects. Users may want to
run certain maintenance tasks based on frequency instead. For example,
a user may want to perform a 'prefetch' task every hour, or 'gc' task
every day. To help these users, update the 'git maintenance run' command
to include a '--schedule=<frequency>' option. The allowed frequencies
are 'hourly', 'daily', and 'weekly'. These values are also allowed in a
new config value 'maintenance.<task>.schedule'.
The 'git maintenance run --schedule=<frequency>' checks the '*.schedule'
config value for each enabled task to see if the configured frequency is
at least as frequent as the frequency from the '--schedule' argument. We
use the following order, for full clarity:
'hourly' > 'daily' > 'weekly'
Use new 'enum schedule_priority' to track these values numerically.
The following cron table would run the scheduled tasks with the correct
frequencies:
0 1-23 * * * git -C <repo> maintenance run --schedule=hourly
0 0 * * 1-6 git -C <repo> maintenance run --schedule=daily
0 0 * * 0 git -C <repo> maintenance run --schedule=weekly
This cron schedule will run --schedule=hourly every hour except at
midnight. This avoids a concurrent run with the --schedule=daily that
runs at midnight every day except the first day of the week. This avoids
a concurrent run with the --schedule=weekly that runs at midnight on
the first day of the week. Since --schedule=daily also runs the
'hourly' tasks and --schedule=weekly runs the 'hourly' and 'daily'
tasks, we will still see all tasks run with the proper frequencies.

Some commands run 'git maintenance run --auto --[no-]quiet' after doing
their normal work, as a way to keep repositories clean as they are used.
Currently, users who do not want this maintenance to occur would set the
'gc.auto' config option to 0 to avoid the 'gc' task from running.
However, this does not stop the extra process invocation. On Windows,
this extra process invocation can be more expensive than necessary.
Allow users to drop this extra process by setting 'maintenance.auto' to

The incremental-repack task updates the multi-pack-index by deleting pack-
files that have been replaced with new packs, then repacking a batch of
small pack-files into a larger pack-file. This incremental repack is faster
than rewriting all object data, but is slower than some other
maintenance activities.
The 'maintenance.incremental-repack.auto' config option specifies how many
pack-files should exist outside of the multi-pack-index before running
the step. These pack-files could be created by 'git fetch' commands or
by the loose-objects task. The default value is 10.
Setting the option to zero disables the task with the '--auto' option,
and a negative value makes the task run every time.

When repacking during the 'incremental-repack' task, we use the
--batch-size option in 'git multi-pack-index repack'. The initial setting
used --batch-size=0 to repack everything into a single pack-file. This is
not sustainable for a large repository. The amount of work required is
also likely to use too many system resources for a background job.
Update the 'incremental-repack' task by dynamically computing a
--batch-size option based on the current pack-file structure.
The dynamic default size is computed with this idea in mind for a client
repository that was cloned from a very large remote: there is likely one
"big" pack-file that was created at clone time. Thus, do not try
repacking it as it is likely packed efficiently by the server.
Instead, we select the second-largest pack-file, and create a batch size
that is one larger than that pack-file. If there are three or more
pack-files, then this guarantees that at least two will be combined into
a new pack-file.
Of course, this means that the second-largest pack-file size is likely
to grow over time and may eventually surpass the initially-cloned
pack-file. Recall that the pack-file batch is selected in a greedy
manner: the packs are considered from oldest to newest and are selected
if they have size smaller than the batch size until the total selected
size is larger than the batch size. Thus, that oldest "clone" pack will
be first to repack after the new data creates a pack larger than that.
We also want to place some limits on how large these pack-files become,
in order to bound the amount of time spent repacking. A maximum
batch-size of two gigabytes means that large repositories will never be
packed into a single pack-file using this job, but also that repack is
rather expensive. This is a trade-off that is valuable to have if the
maintenance is being run automatically or in the background. Users who
truly want to optimize for space and performance (and are willing to pay
the upfront cost of a full repack) can use the 'gc' task to do so.
Create a test for this two gigabyte limit by creating an EXPENSIVE test
that generates two pack-files of roughly 2.5 gigabytes in size, then
performs an incremental repack. Check that the --batch-size argument in
the subcommand uses the hard-coded maximum.

The previous change cleaned up loose objects using the
'loose-objects' that can be run safely in the background. Add a
similar job that performs similar cleanups for pack-files.
One issue with running 'git repack' is that it is designed to
repack all pack-files into a single pack-file. While this is the
most space-efficient way to store object data, it is not time or
memory efficient. This becomes extremely important if the repo is
so large that a user struggles to store two copies of the pack on
their disk.
Instead, perform an "incremental" repack by collecting a few small
pack-files into a new pack-file. The multi-pack-index facilitates
this process ever since 'git multi-pack-index expire' was added in
19575c7 (multi-pack-index: implement 'expire' subcommand,
2019-06-10) and 'git multi-pack-index repack' was added in ce1e4a1
(midx: implement midx_repack(), 2019-06-10).
The 'incremental-repack' task runs the following steps:
1. 'git multi-pack-index write' creates a multi-pack-index file if
one did not exist, and otherwise will update the multi-pack-index
with any new pack-files that appeared since the last write. This
is particularly relevant with the background fetch job.
When the multi-pack-index sees two copies of the same object, it
stores the offset data into the newer pack-file. This means that
some old pack-files could become "unreferenced" which I will use
to mean "a pack-file that is in the pack-file list of the
multi-pack-index but none of the objects in the multi-pack-index
reference a location inside that pack-file."
2. 'git multi-pack-index expire' deletes any unreferenced pack-files
and updaes the multi-pack-index to drop those pack-files from the
list. This is safe to do as concurrent Git processes will see the
multi-pack-index and not open those packs when looking for object
contents. (Similar to the 'loose-objects' job, there are some Git
commands that open pack-files regardless of the multi-pack-index,
but they are rarely used. Further, a user that self-selects to
use background operations would likely refrain from using those
commands.)
3. 'git multi-pack-index repack --bacth-size=<size>' collects a set
of pack-files that are listed in the multi-pack-index and creates
a new pack-file containing the objects whose offsets are listed
by the multi-pack-index to be in those objects. The set of pack-
files is selected greedily by sorting the pack-files by modified
time and adding a pack-file to the set if its "expected size" is
smaller than the batch size until the total expected size of the
selected pack-files is at least the batch size. The "expected
size" is calculated by taking the size of the pack-file divided
by the number of objects in the pack-file and multiplied by the
number of objects from the multi-pack-index with offset in that
pack-file. The expected size approximates how much data from that
pack-file will contribute to the resulting pack-file size. The
intention is that the resulting pack-file will be close in size
to the provided batch size.
The next run of the incremental-repack task will delete these
repacked pack-files during the 'expire' step.
In this version, the batch size is set to "0" which ignores the
size restrictions when selecting the pack-files. It instead
selects all pack-files and repacks all packed objects into a
single pack-file. This will be updated in the next change, but
it requires doing some calculations that are better isolated to
a separate change.
These steps are based on a similar background maintenance step in
Scalar (and VFS for Git) [1]. This was incredibly effective for
users of the Windows OS repository. After using the same VFS for Git
repository for over a year, some users had _thousands_ of pack-files
that combined to up to 250 GB of data. We noticed a few users were
running into the open file descriptor limits (due in part to a bug
in the multi-pack-index fixed by af96fe3 (midx: add packs to
packed_git linked list, 2019-04-29).
These pack-files were mostly small since they contained the commits
and trees that were pushed to the origin in a given hour. The GVFS
protocol includes a "prefetch" step that asks for pre-computed pack-
files containing commits and trees by timestamp. These pack-files
were grouped into "daily" pack-files once a day for up to 30 days.
If a user did not request prefetch packs for over 30 days, then they
would get the entire history of commits and trees in a new, large
pack-file. This led to a large number of pack-files that had poor
delta compression.
By running this pack-file maintenance step once per day, these repos
with thousands of packs spanning 200+ GB dropped to dozens of pack-
files spanning 30-50 GB. This was done all without removing objects
from the system and using a constant batch size of two gigabytes.
Once the work was done to reduce the pack-files to small sizes, the
batch size of two gigabytes means that not every run triggers a
repack operation, so the following run will not expire a pack-file.
This has kept these repos in a "clean" state.

The loose-objects task deletes loose objects that already exist in a
pack-file, then place the remaining loose objects into a new pack-file.
If this step runs all the time, then we risk creating pack-files with
very few objects with every 'git commit' process. To prevent
overwhelming the packs directory with small pack-files, place a minimum
number of objects to justify the task.
The 'maintenance.loose-objects.auto' config option specifies a minimum
number of loose objects to justify the task to run under the '--auto'
option. This defaults to 100 loose objects. Setting the value to zero
will prevent the step from running under '--auto' while a negative value
will force it to run every time.

One goal of background maintenance jobs is to allow a user to
disable auto-gc (gc.auto=0) but keep their repository in a clean
state. Without any cleanup, loose objects will clutter the object
database and slow operations. In addition, the loose objects will
take up extra space because they are not stored with deltas against
similar objects.
Create a 'loose-objects' task for the 'git maintenance run' command.
This helps clean up loose objects without disrupting concurrent Git
commands using the following sequence of events:
1. Run 'git prune-packed' to delete any loose objects that exist
in a pack-file. Concurrent commands will prefer the packed
version of the object to the loose version. (Of course, there
are exceptions for commands that specifically care about the
location of an object. These are rare for a user to run on
purpose, and we hope a user that has selected background
maintenance will not be trying to do foreground maintenance.)
2. Run 'git pack-objects' on a batch of loose objects. These
objects are grouped by scanning the loose object directories in
lexicographic order until listing all loose objects -or-
reaching 50,000 objects. This is more than enough if the loose
objects are created only by a user doing normal development.
We noticed users with _millions_ of loose objects because VFS
for Git downloads blobs on-demand when a file read operation
requires populating a virtual file.
This step is based on a similar step in Scalar [1] and VFS for Git.

When working with very large repositories, an incremental 'git fetch'
command can download a large amount of data. If there are many other
users pushing to a common repo, then this data can rival the initial
pack-file size of a 'git clone' of a medium-size repo.
Users may want to keep the data on their local repos as close as
possible to the data on the remote repos by fetching periodically in
the background. This can break up a large daily fetch into several
smaller hourly fetches.
The task is called "prefetch" because it is work done in advance
of a foreground fetch to make that 'git fetch' command much faster.
However, if we simply ran 'git fetch <remote>' in the background,
then the user running a foreground 'git fetch <remote>' would lose
some important feedback when a new branch appears or an existing
branch updates. This is especially true if a remote branch is
force-updated and this isn't noticed by the user because it occurred
in the background. Further, the functionality of 'git push
--force-with-lease' becomes suspect.
When running 'git fetch <remote> <options>' in the background, use
the following options for careful updating:
1. --no-tags prevents getting a new tag when a user wants to see
the new tags appear in their foreground fetches.
2. --refmap= removes the configured refspec which usually updates
refs/remotes/<remote>/* with the refs advertised by the remote.
While this looks confusing, this was documented and tested by
b40a50264a (fetch: document and test --refmap="", 2020-01-21),
including this sentence in the documentation:
Providing an empty `<refspec>` to the `--refmap` option
causes Git to ignore the configured refspecs and rely
entirely on the refspecs supplied as command-line arguments.
3. By adding a new refspec "+refs/heads/*:refs/prefetch/<remote>/*"
we can ensure that we actually load the new values somewhere in
our refspace while not updating refs/heads or refs/remotes. By
storing these refs here, the commit-graph job will update the
commit-graph with the commits from these hidden refs.
4. --prune will delete the refs/prefetch/<remote> refs that no
longer appear on the remote.
5. --no-write-fetch-head prevents updating FETCH_HEAD.
We've been using this step as a critical background job in Scalar
[1] (and VFS for Git). This solved a pain point that was showing up
in user reports: fetching was a pain! Users do not like waiting to
download the data that was created while they were away from their
machines. After implementing background fetch, the foreground fetch
commands sped up significantly because they mostly just update refs
and download a small amount of new data. The effect is especially
dramatic when paried with --no-show-forced-udpates (through
fetch.showForcedUpdates=false).

If a user is cloning a SHA-1 repository with GIT_DEFAULT_HASH set to
"sha256", then we can end up with a repository where the repository
format version is 0 but the extensions.objectformat key is set to
"sha256". This is both wrong (the user has a SHA-1 repository) and
nonfunctional (because the extension cannot be used in a v0 repository).
This happens because in a clone, we initially set up the repository, and
then change its algorithm based on what the remote side tells us it's
using. We've initially set up the repository as SHA-256 in this case,
and then later on reset the repository version without clearing the
extension.
We could just always set the extension in this case, but that would mean
that our SHA-1 repositories weren't compatible with older Git versions,
even though there's no reason why they shouldn't be. And we also don't
want to initialize the repository as SHA-1 initially, since that means
if we're cloning an empty repository, we'll have failed to honor the
GIT_DEFAULT_HASH variable and will end up with a SHA-1 repository, not a
SHA-256 repository.
Neither of those are appealing, so let's tell the repository
initialization code if we're doing a reinit like this, and if so, to
clear the extension if we're using SHA-1. This makes sure we produce a
valid and functional repository and doesn't break any of our other use
cases.

Introduce a command-line flag to specify the maximum number of new Bloom
filters that a 'git commit-graph write' is willing to compute from
scratch.
Prior to this patch, a commit-graph write with '--changed-paths' would
compute Bloom filters for all selected commits which haven't already
been computed (i.e., by a previous commit-graph write with '--split'
such that a roll-up or replacement is performed).
This behavior can cause prohibitively-long commit-graph writes for a
variety of reasons:
* There may be lots of filters whose diffs take a long time to
generate (for example, they have close to the maximum number of
changes, diffing itself takes a long time, etc).
* Old-style commit-graphs (which encode filters with too many entries
as not having been computed at all) cause us to waste time
recomputing filters that appear to have not been computed only to
discover that they are too-large.
This can make the upper-bound of the time it takes for 'git commit-graph
write --changed-paths' to be rather unpredictable.
To make this command behave more predictably, introduce
'--max-new-filters=<n>' to allow computing at most '<n>' Bloom filters
from scratch. This lets "computing" already-known filters proceed
quickly, while bounding the number of slow tasks that Git is willing to
do.

When a changed-path Bloom filter has either zero, or more than a
certain number (commonly 512) of entries, the commit-graph machinery
encodes it as "missing". More specifically, it sets the indices adjacent
in the BIDX chunk as equal to each other to indicate a "length 0"
filter; that is, that the filter occupies zero bytes on disk.
This has heretofore been fine, since the commit-graph machinery has no
need to care about these filters with too few or too many changed paths.
Both cases act like no filter has been generated at all, and so there is
no need to store them.
In a subsequent commit, however, the commit-graph machinery will learn
to only compute Bloom filters for some commits in the current
commit-graph layer. This is a change from the current implementation
which computes Bloom filters for all commits that are in the layer being
written. Critically for this patch, only computing some of the Bloom
filters means adding a third state for length 0 Bloom filters: zero
entries, too many entries, or "hasn't been computed".
It will be important for that future patch to distinguish between "not
representable" (i.e., zero or too-many changed paths), and "hasn't been
computed". In particular, we don't want to waste time recomputing
filters that have already been computed.
To that end, change how we store Bloom filters in the "computed but not
representable" category:
- Bloom filters with no entries are stored as a single byte with all
bits low (i.e., all queries to that Bloom filter will return
"definitely not")
- Bloom filters with too many entries are stored as a single byte with
all bits set high (i.e., all queries to that Bloom filter will
return "maybe").
These rules are sufficient to not incur a behavior change by changing
the on-disk representation of these two classes. Likewise, no
specification changes are necessary for the commit-graph format, either:
- Filters that were previously empty will be recomputed and stored
according to the new rules, and
- old clients reading filters generated by new clients will interpret
the filters correctly and be none the wiser to how they were
generated.
Clients will invoke the Bloom machinery in more cases than before, but
this can be addressed by returning a NULL filter when all bits are set
high. This can be addressed in a future patch.
Note that this does increase the size of on-disk commit-graphs, but far
less than other proposals. In particular, this is generally more
efficient than storing a bitmap for which commits haven't computed their
Bloom filters. Storing a bitmap incurs a penalty of one bit per commit,
whereas storing explicit filters as above incurs a penalty of one byte
per too-large or empty commit.
In practice, these boundary commits likely occupy a small proportion of
the overall number of commits, and so the size penalty is likely smaller
than storing a bitmap for all commits.
See, for example, these relative proportions of such boundary commits

(where the above increase is determined by computing a non-split
commit-graph before and after this patch).
Given that these projects are all "large" by commit count, the storage
cost by writing these filters explicitly is negligible. In the most
extreme example, android-base (which has 494,848 commits at the time of
writing) would have its commit-graph increase by a modest 68.4 KB.
Finally, a test to exercise filters which contain too many changed path
entries will be introduced in a subsequent patch.

The approximate_object_count() function tries to compute the count only
once per process. But ever since it was introduced in 8e3f52d778
(find_unique_abbrev: move logic out of get_short_sha1(), 2016-10-03), we
failed to actually set the "valid" flag, meaning we'd compute it fresh
on every call.
This turns out not to be _too_ bad, because we're only iterating through
the packed_git list, and not making any system calls. But since it may
get called for every abbreviated hash we output, even this can add up if
you have many packs.
Here are before-and-after timings for a new perf test which just asks
rev-list to abbreviate each commit hash (the test repo is linux.git,
with commit-graphs):
Test origin HEAD
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
5303.3: rev-list (1) 28.91(28.46+0.44) 29.03(28.65+0.38) +0.4%
5303.4: abbrev-commit (1) 1.18(1.06+0.11) 1.17(1.02+0.14) -0.8%
5303.7: rev-list (50) 28.95(28.56+0.38) 29.50(29.17+0.32) +1.9%
5303.8: abbrev-commit (50) 3.67(3.56+0.10) 3.57(3.42+0.15) -2.7%
5303.11: rev-list (1000) 30.34(29.89+0.43) 30.82(30.35+0.46) +1.6%
5303.12: abbrev-commit (1000) 86.82(86.52+0.29) 77.82(77.59+0.22) -10.4%
5303.15: load 10,000 packs 0.08(0.02+0.05) 0.08(0.02+0.06) +0.0%
It doesn't help at all when we have 1 pack (5303.4), but we get a 10%
speedup when there are 1000 packs (5303.12). That's a modest speedup for
a case that's already slow and we'd hope to avoid in general (note how
slow it is even after, because we have to look in each of those packs
for abbreviations). But it's a one-line change that clearly matches the
original intent, so it seems worth doing.
The included perf test may also be useful for keeping an eye on any
regressions in the overall abbreviation code.

The 'git maintenance run' command has an '--auto' option. This is used
by other Git commands such as 'git commit' or 'git fetch' to check if
maintenance should be run after adding data to the repository.
Previously, this --auto option was only used to add the argument to the
'git gc' command as part of the 'gc' task. We will be expanding the
other tasks to perform a check to see if they should do work as part of
the --auto flag, when they are enabled by config.
First, update the 'gc' task to perform the auto check inside the
maintenance process. This prevents running an extra 'git gc --auto'
command when not needed. It also shows a model for other tasks.
Second, use the 'auto_condition' function pointer as a signal for
whether we enable the maintenance task under '--auto'. For instance, we
do not want to enable the 'fetch' task in '--auto' mode, so that
function pointer will remain NULL.
Now that we are not automatically calling 'git gc', a test in
t5514-fetch-multiple.sh must be changed to watch for 'git maintenance'
instead.
We continue to pass the '--auto' option to the 'git gc' command when
necessary, because of the gc.autoDetach config option changes behavior.
Likely, we will want to absorb the daemonizing behavior implied by
gc.autoDetach as a maintenance.autoDetach config option.

Currently, a normal run of "git maintenance run" will only run the 'gc'
task, as it is the only one enabled. This is mostly for backwards-
compatible reasons since "git maintenance run --auto" commands replaced
previous "git gc --auto" commands after some Git processes. Users could
manually run specific maintenance tasks by calling "git maintenance run
--task=<task>" directly.
Allow users to customize which steps are run automatically using config.
The 'maintenance.<task>.enabled' option then can turn on these other
tasks (or turn off the 'gc' task).

A user may want to only run certain maintenance tasks in a certain
order. Add the --task=<task> option, which allows a user to specify an
ordered list of tasks to run. These cannot be run multiple times,
however.
Here is where our array of maintenance_task pointers becomes critical.
We can sort the array of pointers based on the task order, but we do not
want to move the struct data itself in order to preserve the hashmap
references. We use the hashmap to match the --task=<task> arguments into
the task struct data.
Keep in mind that the 'enabled' member of the maintenance_task struct is
a placeholder for a future 'maintenance.<task>.enabled' config option.
Thus, we use the 'enabled' member to specify which tasks are run when
the user does not specify any --task=<task> arguments. The 'enabled'
member should be ignored if --task=<task> appears.

The first new task in the 'git maintenance' builtin is the
'commit-graph' task. This updates the commit-graph file
incrementally with the command
git commit-graph write --reachable --split
By writing an incremental commit-graph file using the "--split"
option we minimize the disruption from this operation. The default
behavior is to merge layers until the new "top" layer is less than
half the size of the layer below. This provides quick writes most
of the time, with the longer writes following a power law
distribution.
Most importantly, concurrent Git processes only look at the
commit-graph-chain file for a very short amount of time, so they
will verly likely not be holding a handle to the file when we try
to replace it. (This only matters on Windows.)
If a concurrent process reads the old commit-graph-chain file, but
our job expires some of the .graph files before they can be read,
then those processes will see a warning message (but not fail).
This could be avoided by a future update to use the --expire-time
argument when writing the commit-graph.

The run_auto_gc() method is used in several places to trigger a check
for repo maintenance after some Git commands, such as 'git commit' or
'git fetch'.
To allow for extra customization of this maintenance activity, replace
the 'git gc --auto [--quiet]' call with one to 'git maintenance run
--auto [--quiet]'. As we extend the maintenance builtin with other
steps, users will be able to select different maintenance activities.
Rename run_auto_gc() to run_auto_maintenance() to be clearer what is
happening on this call, and to expose all callers in the current diff.
Rewrite the method to use a struct child_process to simplify the calls
slightly.
Since 'git fetch' already allows disabling the 'git gc --auto'
subprocess, add an equivalent option with a different name to be more
descriptive of the new behavior: '--[no-]maintenance'. Update the
documentation to include these options at the same time.

Maintenance activities are commonly used as steps in larger scripts.
Providing a '--quiet' option allows those scripts to be less noisy when
run on a terminal window. Turn this mode on by default when stderr is
not a terminal.
Pipe the option to the 'git gc' child process.

The 'gc' builtin is our current entrypoint for automatically maintaining
a repository. This one tool does many operations, such as repacking the
repository, packing refs, and rewriting the commit-graph file. The name
implies it performs "garbage collection" which means several different
things, and some users may not want to use this operation that rewrites
the entire object database.
Create a new 'maintenance' builtin that will become a more general-
purpose command. To start, it will only support the 'run' subcommand,
but will later expand to add subcommands for scheduling maintenance in
the background.
For now, the 'maintenance' builtin is a thin shim over the 'gc' builtin.
In fact, the only option is the '--auto' toggle, which is handed
directly to the 'gc' builtin. The current change is isolated to this
simple operation to prevent more interesting logic from being lost in
all of the boilerplate of adding a new builtin.
Use existing builtin/gc.c file because we want to share code between the
two builtins. It is possible that we will have 'maintenance' replace the
'gc' builtin entirely at some point, leaving 'git gc' as an alias for
some specific arguments to 'git maintenance run'.
Create a new test_subcommand helper that allows us to test if a certain
subcommand was run. It requires storing the GIT_TRACE2_EVENT logs in a
file. A negation mode is available that will be used in later tests.

Commit e3696980 (diff: halt tree-diff early after max_changes,
2020-03-30) intended to create a mechanism to short-circuit a diff
calculation after a certain number of paths were modified. By
incrementing a "num_changes" counter throughout the recursive
ll_diff_tree_paths(), this was supposed to match the number of changes
that would be written into the changed-path Bloom filters.
Unfortunately, this was not implemented correctly and instead misses
simple cases like file modifications. This then does not stop very
large changed-path filters from being written (unless they add or remove
many files).
To start, change the implementation in ll_diff_tree_paths() to instead
use the global diff_queue_diff struct's 'nr' member as the count. This
is a way to simplify the logic instead of making more mistakes in the
complicated diff code.
This has a drawback: the diff_queue_diff struct only lists the paths
corresponding to blob changes, not their leading directories. Thus,
get_or_compute_bloom_filter() needs an additional check to see if the
hashmap with the leading directories becomes too large.
One reason why this was not caught by test cases was that the test in
t4216-log-bloom.sh that was supposed to check this "too many changes"
condition only checked this on the initial commit of a repository. The
old logic counted these values correctly. Update this test in a few
ways:
1. Use GIT_TEST_BLOOM_SETTINGS_MAX_CHANGED_PATHS to reduce the limit,
allowing smaller commits to engage with this logic.
2. Create several interesting cases of edits, adds, removes, and mode
changes (in the second commit). By testing both sides of the
inequality with the *_MAX_CHANGED_PATHS variable, we can see that
the count is exactly correct, so none of these changes are missed
or over-counted.
3. Use the trace2 data value filter_found_large to verify that these
commits are on the correct side of the limit.
Another way to verify the behavior is correct is through performance
tests. By testing on my local copies of the Git repository and the Linux
kernel repository, I could measure the effect of these short-circuits
when computing a fresh commit-graph file with changed-path Bloom filters
using the command
GIT_TEST_BLOOM_SETTINGS_MAX_CHANGED_PATHS=N time \
git commit-graph write --reachable --changed-paths
and reporting the wall time and resulting commit-graph size.
For Git, the results are
| | N=1 | N=10 | N=512 |
|--------|----------------|----------------|----------------|
| HEAD~1 | 10.90s 9.18MB | 11.11s 9.34MB | 11.31s 9.35MB |
| HEAD | 9.21s 8.62MB | 11.11s 9.29MB | 11.29s 9.34MB |
For Linux, the results are
| | N=1 | N=20 | N=512 |
|--------|----------------|---------------|---------------|
| HEAD~1 | 61.28s 64.3MB | 76.9s 72.6MB | 77.6s 72.6MB |
| HEAD | 49.44s 56.3MB | 68.7s 65.9MB | 69.2s 65.9MB |
Naturally, the improvement becomes much less as the limit grows, as
fewer commits satisfy the short-circuit.

When 'get_or_compute_bloom_filter()' needs to compute a Bloom filter
from scratch, it looks to the default 'struct bloom_filter_settings' in
order to determine the maximum number of changed paths, number of bits
per entry, and so on.
All of these values have so far been constant, and so there was no need
to pass in a pointer from the caller (eg., the one that is stored in the
'struct write_commit_graph_context').
Start passing in a 'struct bloom_filter_settings *' instead of using the
default values to respect graph-specific settings (eg., in the case of
setting 'GIT_TEST_BLOOM_SETTINGS_MAX_CHANGED_PATHS').
In order to have an initialized value for these settings, move its
initialization to earlier in the commit-graph write.
