When performing a rebase, rmdir() is called on the folder .git/logs. On
Unix rmdir() exits without deleting anything in case .git/logs is a
symbolic link but the equivalent functions on Windows (_rmdir, _wrmdir
and RemoveDirectoryW) do not behave the same and remove the folder if it
is symlinked even if it is not empty.
This creates issues when folders in .git/ are symlinks which is
especially the case when git-repo[1] is used: It replaces `.git/logs/`
with a symlink.
One such issue is that the _target_ of that symlink is removed e.g.
during a `git rebase`, where `delete_reflog("REBASE_HEAD")` will not
only try to remove `.git/logs/REBASE_HEAD` but then recursively try to
remove the parent directories until an error occurs, a technique that
obviously relies on `rmdir()` refusing to remove a symlink.
This was reported in https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/2967.
This commit updates mingw_rmdir() so that its behavior is the same as
Linux rmdir() in case of symbolic links.
To verify that Git does not regress on the reported issue, this patch
adds a regression test for the `git rebase` symptom, even if the same
`rmdir()` behavior is quite likely to cause potential problems in other
Git commands as well.
[1]: git-repo is a python tool built on top of Git which helps manage
many Git repositories. It stores all the .git/ folders in a central
place by taking advantage of symbolic links.

With a54e938e5b (strbuf: support long paths w/o read rights in
strbuf_getcwd() on FreeBSD, 2017-03-26) we had t0001 break on systems
like OpenBSD and AIX whose getcwd(3) has standard (but not like glibc
et al) behavior.
This was partially fixed in bed67874e2 (t0001: skip test with
restrictive permissions if getpwd(3) respects them, 2017-08-07).
The problem with that fix is that while its analysis of the problem is
correct, it doesn't actually call getcwd(3), instead it invokes "pwd
-P". There is no guarantee that "pwd -P" is going to call getcwd(3),
as opposed to e.g. being a shell built-in.
On AIX under both bash and ksh this test breaks because "pwd -P" will
happily display the current working directory, but getcwd(3) called by
the "git init" we're testing here will fail to get it.
I checked whether clobbering the $PWD environment variable would
affect it, and it didn't. Presumably these shells keep track of their
working directory internally.
There's possible follow-up work here in teaching strbuf_getcwd() to
get the working directory with whatever method "pwd" uses on these
platforms. See [1] for a discussion of that, but let's take the easy
way out here and just skip these tests by fixing the
GETCWD_IGNORES_PERMS prerequisite to match the limitations of
strbuf_getcwd().

Since b243012 (refresh_index(): add flag to ignore SKIP_WORKTREE
entries, 2021-04-08), 'git add --refresh <path>' will output a warning
message when the path is outside the sparse-checkout definition. The
implementation of this warning happened in parallel with the
sparse-index work to add ensure_full_index() calls throughout the
codebase.
Update this loop to have the proper logic that checks to see if the
pathspec is outside the sparse-checkout definition. This avoids the need
to expand the sparse directory entry and determine if the path is
tracked, untracked, or ignored. We simply avoid updating the stat()
information because there isn't even an entry that matches the path!

The add_pathspec_matches_against_index() focuses on matching a pathspec
to file entries in the index. This already works correctly for its only
use: checking if untracked files exist in the index.
The compatibility checks in t1092 already test that 'git add <dir>'
works for a directory outside of the sparse cone. That provides coverage
for removing this guard.
This finalizes our ability to run 'git add .' without expanding a sparse
index to a full one. This is evidenced by an update to t1092 and by
these performance numbers for p2000-sparse-operations.sh:
Test HEAD~1 HEAD
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2000.10: git add . (full-index-v3) 0.37(0.28+0.07) 0.36(0.27+0.06) -2.7%
2000.11: git add . (full-index-v4) 0.33(0.26+0.06) 0.32(0.28+0.05) -3.0%
2000.12: git add . (sparse-index-v3) 0.57(0.53+0.07) 0.06(0.06+0.07) -89.5%
2000.13: git add . (sparse-index-v4) 0.57(0.53+0.07) 0.05(0.03+0.09) -91.2%
While the ~90% improvement is shown by the test results, it is worth
noting that expanding the sparse index was adding overhead in previous
commits. Comparing to the full index case, we see the performance go
from 0.33s to 0.05s, an 85% improvement.

Disable command_requires_full_index for 'git add'. This does not require
any additional removals of ensure_full_index(). The main reason is that
'git add' discovers changes based on the pathspec and the worktree
itself. These are then inserted into the index directly, and calls to
index_name_pos() or index_file_exists() already call expand_to_path() at
the appropriate time to support a sparse-index.
Add a test to check that 'git add -A' and 'git add <file>' does not
expand the index at all, as long as <file> is not within a sparse
directory. This does not help the global 'git add .' case.
We can measure the improvement using p2000-sparse-operations.sh with
these results:
Test HEAD~1 HEAD
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2000.6: git add -A (full-index-v3) 0.35(0.30+0.05) 0.37(0.29+0.06) +5.7%
2000.7: git add -A (full-index-v4) 0.31(0.26+0.06) 0.33(0.27+0.06) +6.5%
2000.8: git add -A (sparse-index-v3) 0.57(0.53+0.07) 0.05(0.04+0.08) -91.2%
2000.9: git add -A (sparse-index-v4) 0.58(0.55+0.06) 0.05(0.05+0.06) -91.4%
While the 91% improvement seems impressive, it's important to recognize
that previously we had significant overhead for expanding the
sparse-index. Comparing to the full index case, 'git add -A' goes from
0.37s to 0.05s, which is "only" an 86% improvement.
This modification to 'git add' creates some behavior change depending on
the use of a sparse index. We modify a test in t1092 to demonstrate
these changes which will be remedied in future changes.

Ever since Git learned to detect its install location at runtime, there
was the slightly awkward problem that it was impossible to specify paths
relative to said location.
For example, if a version of Git was shipped with custom SSL
certificates to use, there was no portable way to specify
`http.sslCAInfo`.
In Git for Windows, the problem was "solved" for years by interpreting
paths starting with a slash as relative to the runtime prefix.
However, this is not correct: such paths _are_ legal on Windows, and
they are interpreted as absolute paths in the same drive as the current
directory.
After a lengthy discussion, and an even lengthier time to mull over the
problem and its best solution, and then more discussions, we eventually
decided to introduce support for the magic sequence `%(prefix)/`. If a
path starts with this, the remainder is interpreted as relative to the
detected (runtime) prefix. If built without runtime prefix support, Git
will simply interpolate the compiled-in prefix.
If a user _wants_ to specify a path starting with the magic sequence,
they can prefix the magic sequence with `./` and voilà, the path won't
be expanded.

Turns out that it is not tricky to test at all: we simply create a

Add new formatting option `%(raw)`, which will print the raw
object data without any changes. It will help further to migrate
all cat-file formatting logic from cat-file to ref-filter.
The raw data of blob, tree objects may contain '\0', but most of
the logic in `ref-filter` depends on the output of the atom being
text (specifically, no embedded NULs in it).
E.g. `quote_formatting()` use `strbuf_addstr()` or `*._quote_buf()`
add the data to the buffer. The raw data of a tree object is
`100644 one\0...`, only the `100644 one` will be added to the buffer,
which is incorrect.
Therefore, we need to find a way to record the length of the
atom_value's member `s`. Although strbuf can already record the
string and its length, if we want to replace the type of atom_value's
member `s` with strbuf, many places in ref-filter that are filled
with dynamically allocated mermory in `v->s` are not easy to replace.
At the same time, we need to check if `v->s == NULL` in
populate_value(), and strbuf cannot easily distinguish NULL and empty
strings, but c-style "const char *" can do it. So add a new member in
`struct atom_value`: `s_size`, which can record raw object size, it
can help us add raw object data to the buffer or compare two buffers
which contain raw object data.
Note that `--format=%(raw)` cannot be used with `--python`, `--shell`,
`--tcl`, and `--perl` because if the binary raw data is passed to a
variable in such languages, these may not support arbitrary binary data
in their string variable type.

As explained in a03b55530a, and made more abvious by the tests added in

directly or by committing (after conflict resolution or if '--no-commit'

other cases, like the user calling 'git reset --merge' or 'git merge

However, there exists a scenario that creates an autostash but does not
apply nor save it to the stash list: if the chosen merge strategy
completely fails to handle the merge, i.e. 'try_merge_strategy' returns
2.
Apply the autostash in that case also. An easy way to test that is to

It can be useful to tell who invoked Git - was it invoked manually by a
user via CLI or script? By an IDE? In some cases - like 'repo' tool -
we can influence the source code and set the GIT_TRACE2_PARENT_SID
environment variable from the caller process. In 'repo''s case, that
parent SID is manipulated to include the string "repo", which means we
can positively identify when Git was invoked by 'repo' tool. However,
identifying parents that way requires both that we know which tools
invoke Git and that we have the ability to modify the source code of
those tools. It cannot scale to keep up with the various IDEs and
wrappers which use Git, most of which we don't know about. Learning
which tools and wrappers invoke Git, and how, would give us insight to
decide where to improve Git's usability and performance.
Unfortunately, there's no cross-platform reliable way to gather the name
of the parent process. If procfs is present, we can use that; otherwise
we will need to discover the name another way. However, the process ID
should be sufficient to look up the process name on most platforms, so
that code may be shareable.
Git for Windows gathers similar information and logs it as a "data_json"
event. However, since "data_json" has a variable format, it is difficult
to parse effectively in some languages; instead, let's pursue a
dedicated "cmd_ancestry" event to record information about the ancestry
of the current process and a consistent, parseable way.
Git for Windows also gathers information about more than one generation
of parent. In Linux further ancestry info can be gathered with procfs,
but it's unwieldy to do so. In the interest of later moving Git for
Windows ancestry logging to the 'cmd_ancestry' event, and in the
interest of later adding more ancestry to the Linux implementation - or
of adding this functionality to other platforms which have an easier
time walking the process tree - let's make 'cmd_ancestry' accept an
array of parentage.

Change the bundle tests to fully compare the expected "git ls-remote"

This avoids subtle regressions in the tests. In
f62e0a39b6 (t5704 (bundle): add tests for bundle --stdin, 2010-04-19)
the "bundle --stdin <rev-list options>" test was added to make sure we
didn't include the tag.
But since the --stdin mode didn't work until 5bb0fd2cab (bundle:
arguments can be read from stdin, 2021-01-11) our grepping of
"master" (later "main") missed the important part of the test.
Namely that we should not include the "refs/tags/tag" tag in that
case. Since the test only grepped for "main" in the output we'd miss a
regression in that code.
So let's use test_cmp instead, and also in the other nearby tests
where it's easy.
This does make things a bit more verbose in the case of the test
that's checking the bundle header, since it's different under SHA1 and
SHA256. I think this makes test easier to follow.
I've got some WIP changes to extend the "git bundle" command to dump
parts of the header out, which are easier to understand if we test the
output explicitly like this.

There were already code checking that --rebase was incompatible with
a merge of multiple heads. However, we were sometimes throwing warnings
about lack of specification of rebase vs. merge when given multiple
heads. Since rebasing is disallowed with multiple merge heads, that
seems like a poor warning to print; we should instead just assume
merging is wanted.
Add a few tests checking multiple merge head behavior.

The interaction of rebase and merge flags and options was not well
tested. Add several tests to check for correct behavior from the
following rules:
* --ff-only vs. --[no-]rebase
(and the related pull.ff=only vs. pull.rebase)
* --rebase[=!false] vs. --no-ff and --ff
(and the related pull.rebase=!false overrides pull.ff=!only)
* command line flags take precedence over config, except:
* --no-rebase heeds pull.ff=!only
* pull.rebase=!false vs --no-ff and --ff

When running unpack_trees() with a sparse index, we attempt to operate
on the index without expanding the sparse directory entries. Thus, we
operate by manipulating entire directories and passing them to the
unpack function. In the case of the 'git checkout' command, this is the
twoway_merge() function.
There are several cases in twoway_merge() that handle different
situations. One new one to add is the case of a directory/file conflict
where the directory is sparse. Before the sparse index, such a conflict
would appear as a list of file additions and deletions. Now,
twoway_merge() initializes 'current', 'oldtree', and 'newtree' from
src[0], src[1], and src[2], then sets 'oldtree' to NULL because it is
equal to the df_conflict_entry. The way to determine that we have a
directory/file conflict is to test that 'current' and 'newtree' disagree
on being sparse directory entries.
When we are in this case, we want to resolve the situation by calling
merged_entry(). This allows replacing the 'current' entry with the
'newtree' entry. This is important for cases where we want to run 'git
checkout' across the conflict and have the new HEAD represent the new
file type at that path. The first NEEDSWORK comment dropped in t1092
demonstrates this necessary behavior.
However, we still are in a confusing state when 'current' corresponds to
a staged change within a sparse directory that is not present at HEAD.
This should be atypical, because it requires adding a change outside of
the sparse-checkout cone, but it is possible. Since we are unable to
determine that this is a staged change within twoway_merge(), we cannot
add a case to reject the merge at this point. I believe this is due to
the use of df_conflict_entry in the place of 'oldtree' instead of using
the valud at HEAD, which would provide some perspective to this
decision. Any change that would allow this differentiation for staged
entries would need to involve information further up in unpack_trees().
That work should be done, sometime, because we are further confusing the
behavior of a directory/file conflict when staging a change in the
directory. The two cases 'checkout behaves oddly with df-conflict-?' in
t1092 demonstrate that even without a sparse-checkout, Git is not
consistent in its behavior. Neither of the two options seems correct,
either. This change makes the sparse-index behave differently than the
typcial sparse-checkout case, but it does match the full checkout
behavior in the df-conflict-2 case.

Add new branches to the test repo that demonstrate directory/file
conflicts in different ways. Since the directory 'folder1/' has
adjacent files 'folder1-', 'folder1.txt', and 'folder10' it causes
searches for 'folder1/' to land in a different place in the index than a
search for 'folder1'. This causes a change in behavior when working with
the df-conflict-1 and df-conflict-2 branches, whose only difference is
that the first uses 'folder1' as the conflict and the other uses
'folder2' which does not have these adjacent files.
We can extend two tests that compare the behavior across different 'git
checkout' commands, and we see already that the behavior will be
different in some cases and not in others. The difference between the
two test loops is that one uses 'git reset --hard' between iterations.
Further, we isolate the behavior of creating a staged change within a
directory and then checking out a branch where that directory is
replaced with a file. A full checkout behaves differently across these
two cases, while a sparse-checkout cone behaves consistently. In both
cases, the behavior is wrong. In one case, the staged change is dropped
entirely. The other case the staged change is kept, replacing the file
at that location, but none of the other files in the directory are kept.
Likely, the correct behavior in this case is to reject the checkout and
report the conflict, leaving HEAD in its previous location. None of the
cases behave this way currently. Use comments to demonstrate that the
tested behavior is only a documentation of the current, incorrect
behavior to ensure we do not _accidentally_ change it. Instead, we would
prefer to change it on purpose with a future change.
At this point, the sparse-index does not handle these 'git checkout'
commands correctly. Or rather, it _does_ reject the 'git checkout' when
we have the staged change, but for the wrong reason. It also rejects the
'git checkout' commands when there is no staged change and we want to
replace a directory with a file. A fix for that unstaged case will
follow in the next change, but that will make the sparse-index agree
with the full checkout case in these documented incorrect behaviors.

The merge algorithm mostly consists of the following three functions:
collect_merge_info()
detect_and_process_renames()
process_entries()
Prior to the trivial directory resolution optimization of the last half
dozen commits, process_entries() was consistently the slowest, followed
by collect_merge_info(), then detect_and_process_renames(). When the
trivial directory resolution applies, it often dramatically decreases
the amount of time spent in the two slower functions.
Looking at the performance results in the previous commit, the trivial
directory resolution optimization helps amazingly well when there are no
relevant renames. It also helps really well when reapplying a long
series of linear commits (such as in a rebase or cherry-pick), since the
relevant renames may well be cached from the first reapplied commit.
But when there are any relevant renames that are not cached (represented
by the just-one-mega testcase), then the optimization does not help at
all.
Often, I noticed that when the optimization does not apply, it is
because there are a handful of relevant sources -- maybe even only one.
It felt frustrating to need to recurse into potentially hundreds or even
thousands of directories just for a single rename, but it was needed for
correctness.
However, staring at this list of functions and noticing that
process_entries() is the most expensive and knowing I could avoid it if
I had cached renames suggested a simple idea: change
collect_merge_info()
detect_and_process_renames()
process_entries()
into
collect_merge_info()
detect_and_process_renames()
<cache all the renames, and restart>
collect_merge_info()
detect_and_process_renames()
process_entries()
This may seem odd and look like more work. However, note that although
we run collect_merge_info() twice, the second time we get to employ
trivial directory resolves, which makes it much faster, so the increased
time in collect_merge_info() is small. While we run
detect_and_process_renames() again, all renames are cached so it's
nearly a no-op (we don't call into diffcore_rename_extended() but we do
have a little bit of data structure checking and fixing up). And the
big payoff comes from the fact that process_entries(), will be much
faster due to having far fewer entries to process.
This restarting only makes sense if we can save recursing into enough
directories to make it worth our while. Introduce a simple heuristic to
guide this. Note that this heuristic uses a "wanted_factor" that I have
virtually no actual real world data for, just some back-of-the-envelope
quasi-scientific calculations that I included in some comments and then
plucked a simple round number out of thin air. It could be that
tweaking this number to make it either higher or lower improves the
optimization. (There's slightly more here; when I first introduced this
optimization, I used a factor of 10, because I was completely confident
it was big enough to not cause slowdowns in special cases. I was
certain it was higher than needed. Several months later, I added the
rough calculations which make me think the optimal number is close to 2;
but instead of pushing to the limit, I just bumped it to 3 to reduce the
risk that there are special cases where this optimization can result in
slowing down the code a little. If the ratio of path counts is below 3,
we probably will only see minor performance improvements at best
anyway.)
Also, note that while the diffstat looks kind of long (nearly 100
lines), more than half of it is in two comments explaining how things
work.
For the testcases mentioned in commit 557ac0350d ("merge-ort: begin

Testcases in t0000 are quite special given that they many of them run
nested testcases to verify that testing functionality itself works as
expected. These nested testcases are realized by writing a new ad-hoc
test script which again sources test-lib.sh, where the new script is
created in a nested subdirectory located beneath the current trash
directory. We then execute the new test script with the nested
subdirectory as current working directory and explicitly re-export
TEST_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY to point to that directory.
While this works as expected in the general case, it falls apart when
the developer has TEST_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY explicitly defined either via
the environment or via config.mak and runs "make test". In that case,
test-lib.sh will clobber the value that we've just carefully set up to
instead contain what the developer has defined. As a result, the
TEST_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY continues to point at the root output directory,
not at the nested one.
This issue causes breakage in the 'test_atexit is run' test case: the
nested test case writes files into "../../", which is assumed to be the
parent's trash directory. But because TEST_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY already
points to to the root output directory, we instead end up writing those
files outside of the output directory. The parent test case will then
try to check whether those files still exist in its own trash directory,
which thus must fail now.
Fix the issue by adding a new TEST_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY_OVERRIDE variable.
If set, then we'll always override the TEST_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY with its
value after sourcing GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS.

Since cd57bc41bb (builtin/multi-pack-index.c: display usage on
unrecognized command, 2021-03-30) we have used a "usage" label to avoid
having two separate callers of usage_with_options (one when no arguments
are given, and another for unrecognized sub-commands).
But the first caller has been broken since cd57bc41bb, since it will
happily jump to usage without arguments, and then pass argv[0] to the
"unrecognized subcommand" error.
Many compilers will save us from a segfault here, but the end result is
ugly, since it mentions an unrecognized subcommand when we didn't even
pass one, and (on GCC) includes "(null)" in its output.
Move the "usage" label down past the error about unrecognized
subcommands so that it is only triggered when it should be. While we're

In t0000, we run several fake "sub-test" suites to verify the behavior
of the test suite. But because we don't clear the parent environment
completely, the sub-tests can be fooled by variables meant for the
parent. For example:
GIT_SKIP_TESTS=t1234 ./t0000-basic.sh
fails when a sub-test expects its fake t1234 to actually run. This
particular pattern is unlikely in practice; we're running a single
script, and there is no t1234 in the real test suite anyway (not yet, at
least). A more real-world example is:
GIT_SKIP_TESTS=t[^0]* make test
to run only the t0* tests.
The fix is conceptually simple: we should clear the GIT_SKIP_TESTS
variable when running the sub-tests, because its contents (if any) will
be meant for the main test suite. This is easy to do centrally in our
sub-test helper.
But there's a catch: some of our tests do set GIT_SKIP_TESTS
intentionally to test the feature. We need to allow them to continue to
set it, but clear it for all the other tests. And the sub-test helper
can't tell if the GIT_SKIP_TESTS it sees is from a test or not. We can
handle this by adding a new option to the helper to let callers specify
the skip list.
I considered adding a more general "--eval" option to let callers set up
the env for the sub-test however they like. That would cover this case
and possible future ones. But the quoting gets awkward for the callers
(since we're now 2 layers deep in evals!), so I went with the simpler
more specific solution.

"test-tool pkt-line pack", but that command wasn't capable of handling
input with "\n" (a feature) or "\0" (just because it happens to be
printf-based under the hood).
Let's add a "pkt-line-raw" helper for that, and expose is at a
packetize_raw() to go with the existing packetize() on the shell

Since 'OPT_ALIAS' was created in 5c387428f1 (parse-options: don't emit
"ambiguous option" for aliases, 2019-04-29), 'git clone
--git-completion-helper', which is used by the Bash completion script to
list options accepted by clone (via '__gitcomp_builtin'), lists both
'--recurse-submodules' and its alias '--recursive', which was not the
case before since '--recursive' had the PARSE_OPT_HIDDEN flag set, and
options with this flag are skipped by 'parse-options.c::show_gitcomp',
which implements 'git <cmd> --git-completion-helper'.
This means that typing 'git clone --recurs<TAB>' will yield both
'--recurse-submodules' and '--recursive', which is not ideal since both
do the same thing, and so the completion should directly complete the
canonical option.
At the point where 'show_gitcomp' is called in 'parse_options_step',
'preprocess_options' was already called in 'parse_options', so any
aliases are now copies of the original options with a modified help text
indicating they are aliases.
Helpfully, since 64cc539fd2 (parse-options: don't leak alias help
messages, 2021-03-21) these copies have the PARSE_OPT_FROM_ALIAS flag
set, so check that flag early in 'show_gitcomp' and do not print them,
unless the user explicitely requested that *all* completion be shown (by
setting 'GIT_COMPLETION_SHOW_ALL'). After all, if we want to encourage
the use of '--recurse-submodules' over '--recursive', we'd better just
suggest the former.
The only other options alias is 'log' and friends' '--mailmap', which is
an alias for '--use-mailmap', but the Bash completion helpers for these
commands do not use '__gitcomp_builtin', and thus are unnaffected by
this change.
Test the new behaviour in t9902-completion.sh. As a side effect, this
also tests the correct behaviour of GIT_COMPLETION_SHOW_ALL, which was
not tested before. Note that since '__gitcomp_builtin' caches the
options it shows, we need to re-source the completion script to clear
that cache for the second test.

Previous changes did the necessary improvements to unpack-trees.c and
diff-lib.c in order to modify a sparse index based on its comparision
with a tree. The only remaining work is to remove some
ensure_full_index() calls and add tests that verify that the index is
not expanded in our interesting cases. Include 'switch' and 'restore' in
these tests, as they share a base implementation with 'checkout'.
Here are the relevant performance results from
p2000-sparse-operations.sh:
Test HEAD~1 HEAD
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2000.18: git checkout -f - (full-v3) 0.49(0.43+0.03) 0.47(0.39+0.05) -4.1%

2000.21: git checkout -f - (sparse-v4) 0.75(0.72+0.04) 0.05(0.06+0.04) -93.3%
It is important to compare the full index case to the sparse index case,
as the previous results for the sparse index were inflated by the index
expansion. For index v4, this is an 88% improvement.
On an internal repository with over two million paths at HEAD and a
sparse-checkout definition containing ~60,000 of those paths, 'git
checkout' went from 3.5s to 297ms with this change. The theoretical
optimum where only those ~60,000 paths exist was 275ms, so the extra
sparse directory entries contribute a 22ms overhead.

Update 'git commit' to allow using the sparse-index in memory without
expanding to a full one. The only place that had an ensure_full_index()
call was in cache_tree_update(). The recursive algorithm for
update_one() was already updated in 2de37c536 (cache-tree: integrate
with sparse directory entries, 2021-03-03) to handle sparse directory
entries in the index.
Most of this change involves testing different command-line options that
allow specifying which on-disk changes should be included in the commit.
This includes no options (only take currently-staged changes), -a (take
all tracked changes), and --include (take a list of specific changes).
To simplify testing that these options do not expand the index, update
the test that previously verified that 'git status' does not expand the
index with a helper method, ensure_not_expanded().
This allows 'git commit' to operate much faster when the sparse-checkout
cone is much smaller than the full list of files at HEAD.
Here are the relevant lines from p2000-sparse-operations.sh:
Test HEAD~1 HEAD
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2000.14: git commit -a -m A (full-v3) 0.35(0.26+0.06) 0.36(0.28+0.07) +2.9%
2000.15: git commit -a -m A (full-v4) 0.32(0.26+0.05) 0.34(0.28+0.06) +6.3%
2000.16: git commit -a -m A (sparse-v3) 0.63(0.59+0.06) 0.04(0.05+0.05) -93.7%
2000.17: git commit -a -m A (sparse-v4) 0.64(0.59+0.08) 0.04(0.04+0.04) -93.8%
It is important to compare the full-index case to the sparse-index case,
so the improvement for index version v4 is actually an 88% improvement in
this synthetic example.
In a real repository with over two million files at HEAD and 60,000
files in the sparse-checkout definition, the time for 'git commit -a'
went from 2.61 seconds to 134ms. I compared this to the result if the
index only contained the paths in the sparse-checkout definition and
found the theoretical optimum to be 120ms, so the out-of-cone paths only
add a 12% overhead.

There are several situations where a repository with sparse-checkout
enabled will act differently than a normal repository, and in ways that
are not intentional. The test t1092-sparse-checkout-compatibility.sh
documents some of these deviations, but a casual reader might think
these are intentional behavior changes.
Add comments on these tests that make it clear that these behaviors
should be updated. Using 'NEEDSWORK' helps contributors find that these
are potential areas for improvement.

If we need to expand a sparse-index into a full one, then the FS Monitor
bitmap is going to be incorrect. Ensure that we start fresh at such an
event.
While this is currently a performance drawback, the eventual hope of the
sparse-index feature is that these expansions will be rare and hence we
will be able to keep the FS Monitor data accurate across multiple Git
commands.
These tests are added to demonstrate that the behavior is the same
across a full index and a sparse index, but also that file modifications
to a tracked directory outside of the sparse cone will trigger
ensure_full_index().

It is difficult, but possible, to get into a state where we intend to
add a directory that is outside of the sparse-checkout definition. Add a
test to t1092-sparse-checkout-compatibility.sh that demonstrates this
using a combination of 'git reset --mixed' and 'git checkout --orphan'.
This test failed before because the output of 'git status
--porcelain=v2' would not match on the lines for folder1/:
* The sparse-checkout repo (with a full index) would output each path
name that is intended to be added.
* The sparse-index repo would only output that "folder1/" is staged for
addition.
The status should report the full list of files to be added, and so this
sparse-directory entry should be expanded to a full list when reaching
it inside the wt_status_collect_changes_initial() method. Use
read_tree_at() to assist.
Somehow, this loop over the cache entries was not guarded by
ensure_full_index() as intended.

By testing 'git -c core.fsmonitor= status -uno', we can check for the
simplest index operations that can be made sparse-aware. The necessary
implementation details are already integrated with sparse-checkout, so
modify command_requires_full_index to be zero for cmd_status().
In refresh_index(), we loop through the index entries to refresh their
stat() information. However, sparse directories have no stat()
information to populate. Ignore these entries.
This allows 'git status' to no longer expand a sparse index to a full
one. This is further tested by dropping the "-uno" option and adding an
untracked file into the worktree.
The performance test p2000-sparse-checkout-operations.sh demonstrates
these improvements:
Test HEAD~1 HEAD
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
2000.2: git status (full-index-v3) 0.31(0.30+0.05) 0.31(0.29+0.06) +0.0%
2000.3: git status (full-index-v4) 0.31(0.29+0.07) 0.34(0.30+0.08) +9.7%
2000.4: git status (sparse-index-v3) 2.35(2.28+0.10) 0.04(0.04+0.05) -98.3%
2000.5: git status (sparse-index-v4) 2.35(2.24+0.15) 0.05(0.04+0.06) -97.9%
Note that since HEAD~1 was expanding the sparse index by parsing trees,
it was artificially slower than the full index case. Thus, the 98%
improvement is misleading, and instead we should celebrate the 0.34s to
0.05s improvement of 85%. This is more indicative of the peformance
gains we are expecting by using a sparse index.
Note: we are dropping the assignment of core.fsmonitor here. This is not
necessary for the test script as we are not altering the config any
other way. Correct integration with FS Monitor will be validated in
later changes.

'git status' began reporting a percentage of populated paths when
sparse-checkout is enabled in 051df3cf (wt-status: show sparse
checkout status as well, 2020-07-18). This percentage is incorrect when
the index has sparse directories. It would also be expensive to
calculate as we would need to parse trees to count the total number of
possible paths.
Avoid the expensive computation by simplifying the output to only report
that a sparse checkout exists, without the percentage.
This change is the reason we use 'git status --porcelain=v2' in
t1092-sparse-checkout-compatibility.sh. We don't want to ensure that
this message is equal across both modes, but instead just the important
information about staged, modified, and untracked files are compared.

Before moving to update 'git status' and 'git add' to work with sparse
indexes, add an explicit test that ensures the sparse-index works the
same as a normal sparse-checkout when the worktree contains directories
and files outside of the sparse cone.
Specifically, 'folder1/a' is a file in our test repo, but 'folder1' is
not in the sparse cone. When 'folder1/a' is modified, the file is not
shown as modified and adding it will fail. This is new behavior as of
a20f704 (add: warn when asked to update SKIP_WORKTREE entries,
2021-04-08). Before that change, these adds would be silently ignored.
Untracked files are fine: adding new files both with 'git add .' and
'git add folder1/' works just as in a full checkout. This may not be
entirely desirable, but we are not intending to change behavior at the
moment, only document it. A future change could alter the behavior to
be more sensible, and this test could be modified to satisfy the new
expected behavior.

As more features integrate with the sparse-index feature, more and more
special cases arise that require different data shapes within the tree
structure of the repository in order to demonstrate those cases.
Add several interesting special cases all at once instead of sprinkling
them across several commits. The interesting cases being added here are:
* Add sparse-directory entries on both sides of directories within the
sparse-checkout definition.
* Add directories outside the sparse-checkout definition who have only
one entry and are the first entry of a directory with multiple
entries.
* Add filenames adjacent to a sparse directory entry that sort before
and after the trailing slash.
Later tests will take advantage of these shapes, but they also deepen

The sparse-index format is designed to be compatible with merge
conflicts, even those outside the sparse-checkout definition. The reason
is that when converting a full index to a sparse one, a cache entry with
nonzero stage will not be collapsed into a sparse directory entry.
However, this behavior was not tested, and a different behavior within
convert_to_sparse() fails in this scenario. Specifically,
cache_tree_update() will fail when unmerged entries exist.
convert_to_sparse_rec() uses the cache-tree data to recursively walk the
tree structure, but also to compute the OIDs used in the
sparse-directory entries.
Add an index scan to convert_to_sparse() that will detect if these merge
conflict entries exist and skip the conversion before trying to update
the cache-tree. This is marked as NEEDSWORK because this can be removed
with a suitable update to cache_tree_update() or a similar method that
can construct a cache-tree with invalid nodes, but still allow creating
the nodes necessary for creating sparse directory entries.
It is possible that in the future we will not need to make such an
update, since if we do not expand a sparse-index into a full one, this
conversion does not need to happen. Thus, this can be deferred until the
merge machinery is made to integrate with the sparse-index.

Commit 88473c8bae ("load_ref_decorations(): avoid parsing non-tag
objects", 2021-06-22) introduced a shortcut to `add_ref_decoration()`:
Rather than calling `parse_object()`, we go for `oid_object_info()` and
then `lookup_object_by_type()` using the type just discovered. As
detailed in the commit message, this provides a significant time saving.
Unfortunately, it also changes the behavior: We lose all annotated tags
from the decoration.
The reason this happens is in the loop where we try to peel the tags, we
won't necessarily have parsed that first object. If we haven't, its
`tagged` field will be NULL, so we won't actually add a decoration for
the pointed-to object.
Make sure to parse the tag object at the top of the peeling loop. This
effectively restores the pre-88473c8bae parsing -- but only of tags,
allowing us to keep most of the possible speedup from 88473c8bae.
On my big ~220k ref test case (where it's mostly non-tags), the
timings [using "git log -1 --decorate"] are:
- before either patch: 2.945s
- with my broken patch: 0.707s
- with [this patch]: 0.788s
The simplest way to do this is to just conditionally parse before the
loop:
if (obj->type == OBJ_TAG)
parse_object(&obj->oid);
But we can observe that our tag-peeling loop needs to peel already, to
examine recursive tags-of-tags. So instead of introducing a new call to
parse_object(), we can simply move the parsing higher in the loop:
instead of parsing the new object before we loop, parse each tag object
before we look at its "tagged" field.
This has another beneficial side effect: if a tag points at a commit (or
other non-tag type), we do not bother to parse the commit at all now.
And we know it is a commit without calling oid_object_info(), because
parsing the surrounding tag object will have created the correct in-core
object based on the "type" field of the tag.
Our test coverage for --decorate was obviously not good, since we missed
this quite-basic regression. The new tests covers an annotated tag
(showing the fix), but also that we correctly show annotations for
lightweight tags and double-annotated tag-of-tags.

In general, we encourage users to use plumbing commands, like git
rev-list, over porcelain commands, like git log, when scripting.
However, git rev-list has one glaring problem that prevents it from
being used in certain cases: when --pretty is used with a custom format,
it always prints out a line containing "commit" and the object ID. This
makes it unsuitable for many scripting needs, and forces users to use
git log instead.
While we can't change this behavior for backwards compatibility, we can
add an option to suppress this behavior, so let's do so, and call it
"--no-commit-header". Additionally, add the corresponding positive
option to switch it back on.
Note that this option doesn't affect the built-in formats, only custom
formats. This is exactly the same behavior as users already have from
git log and is what most users will be used to.

2021-02-22).
The read_packs_list_from_stdin() function didn't check that the lines
it was reading were valid packs, and thus when doing the QSORT() with
pack_mtime_cmp() we'd have a NULL "util" field. The "util" field is
used to associate the names of included/excluded packs with the
packed_git structs they correspond to.
The logic error was in assuming that we could iterate all packs and
annotate the excluded and included packs we got, as opposed to
checking the lines we got on stdin. There was a check for excluded
packs, but included packs were simply assumed to be valid.
As noted in the test we'll not report the first bad line, but whatever
line sorted first according to the string-list.c API. In this case I
think that's fine. There was further discussion of alternate
approaches in [1].
Even though we're being lazy let's assert the line we do expect to get
in the test, since whoever changes this code in the future might miss
this case, and would want to update the test and comments.

This saves 8K per `struct object_directory', meaning it saves
around 800MB in my case involving 100K alternates (half or more
of those alternates are unlikely to hold loose objects).
This is implemented in two parts: a generic, allocation-free
`cbtree' and the `oidtree' wrapper on top of it. The latter
provides allocation using alloc_state as a memory pool to
improve locality and reduce free(3) overhead.
Unlike oid-array, the crit-bit tree does not require sorting.
Performance is bound by the key length, for oidtree that is
fixed at sizeof(struct object_id). There's no need to have
256 oidtrees to mitigate the O(n log n) overhead like we did
with oid-array.
Being a prefix trie, it is natively suited for expanding short
object IDs via prefix-limited iteration in
`find_short_object_filename'.
On my busy workstation, p4205 performance seems to be roughly
unchanged (+/-8%). Startup with 100K total alternates with no
loose objects seems around 10-20% faster on a hot cache.
(800MB in memory savings means more memory for the kernel FS
cache).
The generic cbtree implementation does impose some extra
overhead for oidtree in that it uses memcmp(3) on
"struct object_id" so it wastes cycles comparing 12 extra bytes
on SHA-1 repositories. I've not yet explored reducing this
overhead, but I expect there are many places in our code base
where we'd want to investigate this.

We have a custom match_pattern_list() function which we use for matching
test names (like "t1234") against glob-like patterns (like "t1???") for
$GIT_SKIP_TESTS, --verbose-only, etc.
Those patterns may have multiple whitespace-separated elements (e.g.,
"t0* t1234 t5?78"). The callers of match_pattern_list thus pass the
strings unquoted, so that the shell does the usual field-splitting into
separate arguments.
But this also means the shell will do the usual globbing for each
argument, which can result in us seeing an expansion based on what's in
the filesystem, rather than the real pattern. For example, if I have the
path "t5000" in the filesystem, and you feed the pattern "t?000", that
_should_ match the string "t0000", but it won't after the shell has
expanded it to "t5000".
This has been a bug ever since that function was introduced. But it
didn't usually trigger since we typically use the function inside the
trash directory, which has a very limited set of files that are unlikely
to match. It became a lot easier to trigger after edc23840b0 (test-lib:
bring $remove_trash out of retirement, 2021-05-10), because now we match
$GIT_SKIP_TESTS before even entering the trash directory. So the t5000
example above can be seen with:
GIT_SKIP_TESTS=t?000 ./t0000-basic.sh
which should skip all tests but doesn't.
We can fix this by using "set -f" to ask the shell not to glob (which is
in POSIX, so should hopefully be portable enough). We only want to do
this in a subshell (to avoid polluting the rest of the script), which
means we need to get the whole string intact into the match_pattern_list
function by quoting it. Arguably this is a good idea anyway, since it
makes it much more obvious that we intend to split, and it's not simply

Directory rename detection can cause transitive renames, e.g. if the two
different sides of history each do one half of:
A/file -> B/file
B/ -> C/
then directory rename detection transitively renames to give us
A/file -> C/file
However, when C/ == A/, note that this gives us
A/file -> A/file.
merge-recursive assumed that any rename D -> E would have D != E. While
that is almost always true, the above is a special case where it is not.
So we cannot do things like delete the rename source, we cannot assume
that a file existing at path E implies a rename/add conflict and we have
to be careful about what stages end up in the output.
This change feels a bit hackish. It took me surprisingly many hours to
find, and given merge-recursive's design causing it to attempt to
enumerate all combinations of edge and corner cases with special code
for each combination, I'm worried there are other similar fixes needed
elsewhere if we can just come up with the right special testcase.
Perhaps an audit would rule it out, but I have not the energy.
merge-recursive deserves to die, and since it is on its way out anyway,
fixing this particular bug narrowly will have to be good enough.

Path conflicts (typically rename path conflicts, e.g.
rename/rename(1to2) or rename/add/delete), and directory/file conflicts
should obviously result in files not being marked as clean in the merge.
We had a codepath where we missed consulting the path_conflict and
df_conflict flags, based on match_mask. Granted, it requires an unusual
setup to trigger this codepath (directory rename causing rename-to-self
is the only case I can think of), but we still need to handle it. To
make it clear that we have audited the other codepaths that do not
explicitly mention these flags, add some assertions that the flags are
not set.

Directory rename detection can cause transitive renames, e.g. if the two
different sides of history each do one half of:
A/file -> B/file
B/ -> C/
then directory rename detection transitively renames to give us C/file.
Since the default for merge.directoryRenames is conflict, this results
in an error message saying it is unclear whether the file should be
placed at B/file or C/file.
What if C/ is A/, though? In such a case, the transitive rename would
give us A/file, the original name we started with. Logically, having
an error message with B/file vs. A/file should be fine, as should
leaving the file where it started. But the logic in both
merge-recursive and merge-ort did not handle a case of a filename being
renamed to itself correctly; merge-recursive had two bugs, and merge-ort
had one. Add some testcases covering such a scenario.

Git grep allows combining two patterns with --and. It checks and
reports if the second pattern is missing when compiling the expression.
A missing first pattern, however, is only reported later at match time.
Thus no error is returned if no matching is done, e.g. because no file
matches the also given pathspec.
When that happens we get an expression tree with an GREP_NODE_AND node
and a NULL pointer to the missing left child. free_pattern_expr()
tries to dereference it during the cleanup at the end, which results
in a segmentation fault.
Fix this by verifying the presence of the left operand at expression
compilation time.

'git multi-pack-index verify' inspects the data in an existing MIDX for
correctness by checking that the recorded object offsets are correct,
and so on.
But it does not check that the file's trailing checksum matches the data
that it records. So, if an on-disk corruption happened to occur in the
final few bytes (and all other data was recorded correctly), we would:
- get a clean result from 'git multi-pack-index verify', but
- be unable to reuse the existing MIDX when writing a new one (since
we now check for checksum mismatches before reusing a MIDX)
Teach the 'verify' sub-command to recognize corruption in the checksum
by calling midx_checksum_valid().

When writing a new multi-pack index, Git tries to reuse as much of the
data from an existing MIDX as possible, like object offsets. This is
done to avoid re-opening a bunch of *.idx files unnecessarily, but can
lead to problems if the data we are reusing is corrupt.
That's because we'll blindly reuse data from an existing MIDX without
checking its trailing checksum for validity. So if there is memory
corruption while writing a MIDX, or disk corruption in the intervening
period between writing and reuse, we'll blindly propagate those bad
values forward.
Suppose we experience a memory corruption while writing a MIDX such that
we write an incorrect object offset (or alternatively, the disk corrupts
the data after being written, but before being reused). Then when we go
to write a new MIDX, we'll reuse the bad object offset without checking
its validity. This means that the MIDX we just wrote is broken, but its
trailing checksum is in-tact, since we never bothered to look at the
values before writing.
In the above, a "git multi-pack-index verify" would have caught the
problem before writing, but writing a new MIDX wouldn't have noticed
anything wrong, blindly carrying forward the corrupt offset.
Individual pack indexes check their validity by verifying the crc32
attached to each entry when carrying data forward during a repack.
We could solve this problem for MIDXs in the same way, but individual
crc32's don't make much sense, since their entries are so small.
Likewise, checking the whole file on every read may be prohibitively
expensive if a repository has a lot of objects, packs, or both.
But we can check the trailing checksum when reusing an existing MIDX
when writing a new one. And a corrupt MIDX need not stop us from writing
a new one, since we can just avoid reusing the existing one at all and
pretend as if we are writing a new MIDX from scratch.

This is one step towards supporting partial clone submodules.
Even after this patch, we will still lack partial clone submodules
support, primarily because a lot of Git code that accesses submodule
objects does so by adding their object stores as alternates, meaning
that any lazy fetches that would occur in the submodule would be done
based on the config of the superproject, not of the submodule. This also
prevents testing of the functionality in this patch by user-facing
commands. So for now, test this mechanism using a test helper.
Besides that, there is some code that uses the wrapper functions
like has_promisor_remote(). Those will need to be checked to see if they
could support the non-wrapper functions instead (and thus support any

the commit status signs, 2009-04-22) to not color and reset each

This makes the output easier to test, so let's do that now. The test
would be much more verbose without a color/reset for each space
character. Since the coloring cycles through colors we previously had
a "rainbow of space characters".
In theory this breaks things for anyone who's relying on the exact

Commit 7fbbcb21b1 ("diff: batch fetching of missing blobs", 2019-04-05)
introduced batching of fetching missing blobs, so that the diff
machinery would have one fetch subprocess grab N blobs instead of N
processes each grabbing 1.
However, the diff machinery is not the only thing in a merge that needs
to work on blobs. The 3-way content merges need them as well. Rather
than download all the blobs 1 at a time, prefetch all the blobs needed
for regular content merges.
This does not cover all possible paths in merge-ort that might need to
download blobs. Others include:
- The blob_unchanged() calls to avoid modify/delete conflicts (when
blob renormalization results in an "unchanged" file)
- Preliminary content merges needed for rename/add and
rename/rename(2to1) style conflicts. (Both of these types of
conflicts can result in nested conflict markers from the need to do
two levels of content merging; the first happens before our new
prefetch_for_content_merges() function.)
The first of these wouldn't be an extreme amount of work to support, and
even the second could be theoretically supported in batching, but all of
these cases seem unusual to me, and this is a minor performance
optimization anyway; in the worst case we only get some of the fetches
batched and have a few additional one-off fetches. So for now, just
handle the regular 3-way content merges in our prefetching.
For the testcase from the previous commit, the number of downloaded
objects remains at 63, but this drops the number of fetches needed from
32 down to 20, a sizeable reduction.

merge-ort was designed to minimize the amount of data needed and used,
and several changes were made to diffcore-rename to take advantage of
extra metadata to enable this data minimization (particularly the
relevant_sources variable for skipping "irrelevant" renames). This
effort obviously succeeded in drastically reducing computation times,
but should also theoretically allow partial clones to download much less
information. Previously, though, the "prefetch" command used in
diffcore-rename had never been modified and downloaded many blobs that
were unnecessary for merge-ort. This commit corrects that.
When doing basename comparisons, we want to fetch only the objects that
will be used for basename comparisons. If after basename fetching this
leaves us with no more relevant sources (or no more destinations), then
we won't need to do the full inexact rename detection and can skip
downloading additional source and destination files. Even if we have to
do that later full inexact rename detection, irrelevant sources are
culled after basename matching and before the full inexact rename
detection, so we can still avoid downloading the blobs for irrelevant
sources. Rename prefetch() to inexact_prefetch(), and introduce a
new basename_prefetch() to take advantage of this.
If we modify the testcase from commit 557ac0350d ("merge-ort: begin
performance work; instrument with trace2_region_* calls", 2021-01-23)
to pass
--sparse --filter=blob:none
to the clone command, and use the new trace2 "fetch_count" output from
a few commits ago to track both the number of fetch subcommands invoked
and the number of objects fetched across all those fetches, then for
the mega-renames testcase we observe the following:
BEFORE this commit, rebasing 35 patches:
strategy # of fetches total # of objects fetched
--------- ------------ --------------------------
recursive 62 11423
ort 30 11391
AFTER this commit, rebasing the same 35 patches:
ort 32 63
This means that the new code only needs to download less than 2 blobs
per patch being rebased. That is especially interesting given that the
repository at the start only had approximately half a dozen TOTAL blobs
downloaded to start with (because the default sparse-checkout of just
the toplevel directory was in use).
So, for this particular linux kernel testcase that involved ~26,000
renames on the upstream side (drivers/ -> pilots/) across which 35
patches were being rebased, this change reduces the number of blobs that
need to be downloaded by a factor of ~180.

Not all systems have a readlink program available for use by the shell.
This causes t3210 to fail on at least AIX. Let's provide a perl

I also updated calls in t9802. Nobody reported failure there, but it's
the same issue. Presumably nobody actually tests with p4 on AIX in the

I left the use of readlink in the "--valgrind" setup in test-lib.sh, as
valgrind isn't available on exotic platforms anyway (and I didn't want

wrapper function there, though, as it's inside a sub-script triggered by
Git. It uses a slightly different technique ("ls" piped to "sed"). I
chose not to use that here as it gives confusing "ls -l" output if the
file is unexpectedly not a symlink (which is OK for its limited use, but
potentially confusing for general use within the test suite). The perl

Since cd1d61c44f (make union merge an xdl merge favor, 2010-03-01), we
pass NULL to ll_xdl_merge() for the "name" labels of the ancestor, ours
and theirs buffers. We usually use these for annotating conflict markers
left in a file. For a union merge, these shouldn't matter; the point of
it is that we'd never leave conflict markers in the first place.
But there is one code path where we may dereference them: if the file
contents appear to be binary, ll_binary_merge() will give up and pass
them to warning() to generate a message for the user (that was true even
when cd1d61c44f was written, though the warning was in ll_xdl_merge()
back then).
That can result in a segfault, though on many systems (including glibc),
the printf routines will helpfully just say "(null)" instead. We can
extend our binary-union test in t6406 to check stderr, which catches the
problem on all systems.
This also fixes a warning from "gcc -O3". Unlike lower optimization
levels, it inlines enough to see that the NULL can make it to warning()
and complains:
In function ‘ll_binary_merge’,
inlined from ‘ll_xdl_merge’ at ll-merge.c:115:10,
inlined from ‘ll_union_merge’ at ll-merge.c:151:9:

Prior to commit a944af1d86 (merge: teach -Xours/-Xtheirs to binary
ll-merge driver, 2012-09-08), we always reported a conflict from
ll_binary_merge() by returning "1" (in the xdl_merge and ll_merge code,
this value is the number of conflict hunks). After that commit, we
report zero conflicts if the "variant" flag is set, under the assumption
that it is one of XDL_MERGE_FAVOR_OURS or XDL_MERGE_FAVOR_THEIRS.
But this gets confused by XDL_MERGE_FAVOR_UNION. We do not know how to
do a binary union merge, but erroneously report no conflicts anyway (and
just blindly use the "ours" content as the result).
Let's tighten our check to just the cases that a944af1d86 meant to
cover. This fixes the union case (which existed already back when that
commit was made), as well as future-proofing us against any other
variants that get added later.
Note that you can't trigger this from "git merge-file --union", as that
bails on binary files before even calling into the ll-merge machinery.
The test here uses the "union" merge attribute, which does erroneously
report a successful merge.

Dash bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dash/+bug/139097
lets the shell erroneously perform field splitting on the expansion of a
command substitution during declaration of a local variable. It causes
the parallel-checkout tests to fail e.g. when running them with
/bin/dash on MacOS 11.4, where they error out like this:
./t2080-parallel-checkout-basics.sh: 33: local: 0: bad variable name
That's because the output of wc -l contains leading spaces and the
returned number of lines is treated as another variable to declare, i.e.
as in "local workers= 0".
Work around it by enclosing the command substitution in quotes.

The --batch code to print an object assumes we found out the type of
the object from calling oid_object_info_extended(). This is true for
the default format, but even in a custom format, we manually modify
the object_info struct to ask for the type.
This assumption was broken by 845de33a5b (cat-file: avoid noop calls
to sha1_object_info_extended, 2016-05-18). That commit skips the call
to oid_object_info_extended() entirely when --batch-all-objects is in
use, and the custom format does not include any placeholders that
require calling it.
Or when the custom format only include placeholders like %(objectname) or
%(rest), oid_object_info_extended() will not get the type of the object.
This results in an error when we try to confirm that the type didn't
change:
$ git cat-file --batch=batman --batch-all-objects
batman
fatal: object 000023961a changed type!?
and also has other subtle effects (e.g., we'd fail to stream a blob,
since we don't realize it's a blob in the first place).
We can fix this by flipping the order of the setup. The check for "do
we need to get the object info" must come _after_ we've decided
whether we need to look up the type.

This test checks that unreachable objects are really removed. For the test to
work, it has to ensure that no reflog retain any reachable objects.
Previously, it did this by manipulating the file system to remove reflog in the
first test, and relying on git not updating the reflog if the relevant logfile
doesn't exist in follow-up tests.
Now, explicitly clear the reflog using 'reflog expire'. This reduces the
dependency between test functions. It also is more amenable to use with
reftable, which has no concept of (non)-existence of a reflog

* ds/t1092-fix-flake-from-progress:
t1092: revert the "-1" hack for emulating "no progress meter"
t1092: use GIT_PROGRESS_DELAY for consistent results
t2080 makes a few copies of a test repository and later performs a
branch switch on each one of the copies to verify that parallel checkout
and sequential checkout produce the same results. However, the
repository is copied with `cp -R` which, on some systems, defaults to
following symlinks on the directory hierarchy and copying their target
files instead of copying the symlinks themselves. AIX is one example of
system where this happens. Because the symlinks are not preserved, the
copied repositories have paths that do not match what is in the index,
causing git to abort the checkout operation that we want to test. This
makes the test fail on these systems.
Fix this by copying the repository with the POSIX flag '-P', which
forces cp to copy the symlinks instead of following them. Note that we
already use this flag for other cp invocations in our test suite (see
t7001). With this change, t2080 now passes on AIX.

In c8243933c7 (git-send-email: Respect core.hooksPath setting,
2021-03-23) we started supporting core.hooksPath in "send-email". It's
been reported that on Windows[1] doing this by calling abs_path()
results in different canonicalizations of the absolute path.
This wasn't an issue in c8243933c7 itself, but was revealed by my
ea7811b37e (git-send-email: improve --validate error output,
2021-04-06) when we started emitting the path to the hook, which was
previously only internal to git-send-email.perl.
The just-landed 53753a37d0 (t9001-send-email.sh: fix expected
absolute paths on Windows, 2021-05-24) narrowly fixed this issue, but
I believe we can do better here. We should not be relying on whatever
changes Perl's abs_path() makes to the path "rev-parse --git-path
hooks" hands to us. Let's instead trust it, and hand it to Perl's
system() in git-send-email.perl. It will handle either a relative or
absolute path.
So let's revert most of 53753a37d0 and just have "hooks_path" return
what we get from "rev-parse" directly without modification. This has
the added benefit of making the error message friendlier in the common
case, we'll no longer print an absolute path for repository-local hook
errors.

The t1092-sparse-checkout-compatibility.sh tests compare the stdout and
stderr for several Git commands across both full checkouts, sparse
checkouts with a full index, and sparse checkouts with a sparse index.
Since these are direct comparisons, sometimes a progress indicator can
flush at unpredictable points, especially on slower machines. This
causes the tests to be flaky.
One standard way to avoid this is to add GIT_PROGRESS_DELAY=0 to the Git
commands that are run, as this will force every progress indicator
created with start_progress_delay() to be created immediately. However,
there are some progress indicators that are created in the case of a
full index that are not created with a sparse index. Moreover, their
values may be different as those indexes have a different number of
entries.
Instead, use GIT_PROGRESS_DELAY=-1 (which will turn into UINT_MAX)
to ensure that any reasonable machine running these tests would
never display delayed progress indicators.

We used to read the init.templateDir setting at builtin/init-db.c using
a git_config() callback that, in turn, called git_config_pathname(). To
simplify the config reading logic at this file and plug a memory leak,
this was replaced by a direct call to git_config_get_value() at
e4de4502e6 ("init: remove git_init_db_config() while fixing leaks",
2021-03-14). However, this function doesn't provide path expanding
semantics, like git_config_pathname() does, so paths with '~/' and
'~user/' are treated literally. This makes 'git init' fail to handle
init.templateDir paths using these constructs:
$ git config init.templateDir '~/templates_dir'
$ git init
'warning: templates not found in ~/templates_dir'
Replace the git_config_get_value() call by git_config_get_pathname(),
which does the '~/' and '~user/' expansions. Also add a regression test.
Note that unlike git_config_get_value(), the config cache does not own
the memory for the path returned by git_config_get_pathname(), so we
must free() it.

Git for Windows is a native Windows program that works with native
absolute paths in the drive letter style C:\dir. The auxiliary
infrastructure is based on MSYS2, which uses POSIX style /C/dir.
When we test for output of absolute paths produced by git.exe, we
usally have to expect C:\dir style paths. To produce such expected
paths, we have to use $(pwd) in the test scripts; the alternative,
$PWD, produces a POSIX style path. ($PWD is a shell variable, and the
shell is bash, an MSYS2 program, and operates in the POSIX realm.)
There are two recently added tests that were written to expect C:\dir
paths. The output that is tested is produced by `git send-email`, but
behind the scenes, this is a Perl script, which also works in the
POSIX realm and produces /C/dir style output.
In the first test case that is changed here, replace $(pwd) by $PWD
so that the expected path is constructed using /C/dir style.
The second test case sets core.hooksPath to an absolute path. Since
the test script talks to native git.exe, it is supposed to place a
C:/dir style path into the configuration; therefore, keep $(pwd).
When this configuration value is consumed by the Perl script, it is
transformed to /C/dir style by the MSYS2 layer and echoed back in
this form in the error message. Hence, do use $PWD for the expected
value.

t5551: test http interaction with credential helpers
When there are many renames between the old base of a series of commits
and the new base, the way sequencer.c, merge-recursive.c, and
diffcore-rename.c have traditionally split the work resulted in
redetecting the same renames with each and every commit being
transplanted. To address this, the last several commits have been
creating a cache of rename detection results, determining when it was
safe to use such a cache in subsequent merge operations, adding helper
functions, and so on. See the previous half dozen commit messages for
additional discussion of this optimization, particularly the message a
few commits ago entitled "add code to check for whether cached renames
can be reused". This commit finally ties all of that work together,
modifying the merge algorithm to make use of these cached renames.
For the testcases mentioned in commit 557ac0350d ("merge-ort: begin
performance work; instrument with trace2_region_* calls", 2020-10-28),
this change improves the performance as follows:
Before After
no-renames: 5.665 s ± 0.129 s 5.622 s ± 0.059 s
mega-renames: 11.435 s ± 0.158 s 10.127 s ± 0.073 s
just-one-mega: 494.2 ms ± 6.1 ms 500.3 ms ± 3.8 ms
That's a fairly small improvement, but mostly because the previous
optimizations were so effective for these particular testcases; this
optimization only kicks in when the others don't. If we undid the
basename-guided rename detection and skip-irrelevant-renames
optimizations, then we'd see that this series by itself improved
performance as follows:

mega-renames: 1799.937 s ± 0.493 s 205.709 s ± 0.457 s
Since this optimization kicks in to help accelerate cases where the
previous optimizations do not apply, this last comparison shows that
this cached-renames optimization has the potential to help signficantly
in cases that don't meet the requirements for the other optimizations to
be effective.
The changes made in this optimization also lay some important groundwork
for a future optimization around having collect_merge_info() avoid
recursing into subtrees in more cases.
However, for this optimization to be effective, merge_switch_to_result()
should only be called when the rebase or cherry-pick operation has
either completed or hit a case where the user needs to resolve a
conflict or edit the result. If it is called after every commit, as
sequencer.c does, then the working tree and index are needlessly updated
with every commit and the cached metadata is tossed, defeating this
optimization. Refactoring sequencer.c to only call
merge_switch_to_result() at the end of the operation is a bigger
undertaking, and the practical benefits of this optimization will not be
realized until that work is performed. Since `test-tool fast-rebase`
only updates at the end of the operation, it was used to obtain the
timings above.

We will soon be adding an optimization that caches (in memory only,
never written to disk) upstream renames during a sequence of merges such
as occurs during a cherry-pick or rebase operation. Add several tests
meant to stress such an implementation to ensure it does the right
thing, and include a test whose outcome we will later change due to this
optimization as well.

Previously, when fast-rebase hit a conflict, it simply aborted and left
HEAD, the index, and the working tree where they were before the
operation started. While fast-rebase does not support restarting from a
conflicted state, write the conflicted state out anyway as it gives us a
way to see what the conflicts are and write tests that check for them.
This will be important in the upcoming commits, because sequencer.c is
only superficially integrated with merge-ort.c; in particular, it calls
merge_switch_to_result() after EACH merge instead of only calling it at
the end of all the sequence of merges (or when a conflict is hit). This
not only causes needless updates to the working copy and index, but also
causes all intermediate data to be freed and tossed, preventing caching
information from one merge to the next. However, integrating
sequencer.c more deeply with merge-ort.c is a big task, and making this
small extension to fast-rebase.c provides us with a simple way to test
the edge and corner cases that we want to make sure continue working.

assert() can succinctly document expectations for the code, and do so in
a way that may be useful to future folks trying to refactor the code and
change basic assumptions; it allows them to more quickly find some
places where their violations of previous assumptions trips things up.
Unfortunately, assert() can surround a function call with important
side-effects, which is a huge mistake since some users will compile with
assertions disabled. I've had to debug such mistakes before in other
codebases, so I should know better. Luckily, this was only in test

The "chainlint" feature in the test framework is a handy way to

git-clone started respecting errors from the transport subsystem in
aab179d937 (builtin/clone.c: don't ignore transport_fetch_refs() errors,
2020-12-03). However, that commit didn't handle the cleanup of the
filesystem quite right.
The cleanup of the directory that cmd_clone() creates is done by an
atexit() handler, which we control with a flag. It starts as
JUNK_LEAVE_NONE ("clean up everything"), then progresses to
JUNK_LEAVE_REPO when we know we have a valid repo but not working tree,
and then finally JUNK_LEAVE_ALL when we have a successful checkout.
Most errors cause us to die(), which then triggers the handler to do the
right thing based on how far into cmd_clone() we got. But the checks
added by aab179d937 instead set the "err" variable and then jump to a
new "cleanup" label, which then returns our non-zero status. However,
the code after the cleanup label includes setting the flag to
JUNK_LEAVE_ALL, and so we accidentally leave the repository and working
tree in place.
One obvious option to fix this is to reorder the end of the function to
set the flag first, before cleanup code, and put the label between them.
But we can observe another small bug: the error return from
transport_fetch_refs() is generally "-1", and we propagate that to the
return value of cmd_clone(), which ultimately becomes the exit code of
the process. And we try to avoid transmitting negative values via exit
codes (only the low 8 bits are passed along as an unsigned value, though
in practice for "-1" this at least retains the property that it's
non-zero).
Instead, let's just die(). That makes us consistent with rest of the
code in the function. It does add a new "fatal:" line to the output, but
I'd argue that's a good thing:
- in the rare case that the transport code didn't say anything, now
the user gets _some_ error message
- even if the transport code said something like "error: ssh died of
signal 9", it's nice to also say "fatal" to indicate that we
considered that to be a show-stopper.
Triggering this in the test suite turns out to be surprisingly
difficult. Almost every error we'd encounter, including ones deep inside
the transport code, cause us to just die() right there! However, one way
is to put a fake wrapper around git-upload-pack that sends the complete
packfile but exits with a failure code.

This reverts commit 1b0d9545bb.
That commit does fix the situation it intended to (avoiding Negotiate
even when the credentials were provided in the URL), but it creates a
more serious regression: we now never hit the conditional for "we had a
username and password, tried them, but the server still gave us a 401".
That has two bad effects:
1. we never call credential_reject(), and thus a bogus credential
stored by a helper will live on forever
2. we never return HTTP_NOAUTH, so the error message the user gets is
"The requested URL returned error: 401", instead of "Authentication
failed".
Doing this correctly seems non-trivial, as we don't know whether the
Negotiate auth was a problem. Since this is a regression in the upcoming
v2.23.0 release (for which we're in -rc0), let's revert for now and work
on a fix separately.
(Note that this isn't a pure revert; the previous commit added a test
showing the regression, so we can now flip it to expect_success).

We test authentication with http, and we independently test that
credential helpers work, but we don't have any tests that cover the
two features working together. Let's add two:
1. Make sure that a successful request asks the helper to save the
credential. This works as expected.
2. Make sure that a failed request asks the helper to forget the
credential. This is marked as expect_failure, as it was recently
regressed by 1b0d9545bb (remote-curl: fall back to basic auth if
Negotiate fails, 2021-03-22). The symptom here is that the second
request should prompt the user, but doesn't.

The sendemail.smtpServer configuration option and --smtp-server command
line option both support using a sendmail-like program to send emails by
specifying an absolute file path. However, this is not ideal for the
following reasons:
1. It overloads the meaning of smtpServer (now a program is being used
for the server?)
2. It doesn't allow for non-absolute paths, arguments, or arbitrary
scripting
Requiring an absolute path is bad for portability, as the same program
may be in different locations on different systems. If a user wishes to
pass arguments to their program, they have to use the smtpServerOption
option, which is cumbersome (as it must be repeated for each option) and
doesn't adhere to normal git conventions.
Introduce a new configuration option sendemail.sendmailCmd as well as a
command line option --sendmail-cmd that can be used to specify a command
(with or without arguments) or shell expression to run to send email.
The name of this option is consistent with --to-cmd and --cc-cmd. This
invocation honors the user's $PATH so that absolute paths are not
necessary. Arbitrary shell expressions are also supported, allowing
users to do basic scripting.
Give this option a higher precedence over --smtp-server and
sendemail.smtpServer, as the new interface is more flexible. For
backward compatibility, continue to support absolute paths in
--smtp-server and sendemail.smtpServer.

Commit 878f988350 (t/test-lib: teach --chain-lint to detect broken
&&-chains in subshells, 2018-07-11) introduced additional chain-lint
tests which add an extra "sed" pipeline to each test we run. This has a
measurable impact on runtime. Here are timings with and without a new
environment variable (added by this patch) that lets you disable just
the additional sed-based chain-lint tests:
Benchmark #1: GIT_TEST_CHAIN_LINT_HARDER=1 make test
Time (mean ± σ): 64.202 s ± 1.030 s [User: 622.469 s, System: 301.402 s]
Range (min … max): 61.571 s … 65.662 s 10 runs
Benchmark #2: GIT_TEST_CHAIN_LINT_HARDER=0 make test
Time (mean ± σ): 57.591 s ± 0.333 s [User: 529.368 s, System: 270.618 s]
Range (min … max): 57.143 s … 58.309 s 10 runs
Summary
'GIT_TEST_CHAIN_LINT_HARDER=0 make test' ran
1.11 ± 0.02 times faster than 'GIT_TEST_CHAIN_LINT_HARDER=1 make test'
Of course those extra lint checks are doing something useful, so paying
a few extra seconds (at least on Linux) isn't so bad (though note the
CPU time; we're bounded in our parallel run here by the slowest test, so
it really is ~120s of CPU improvement).
But we can observe that there are some test scripts where they produce a
much stronger effect, and provide less value. In t0027 and t3070 we run
a very large number of small tests, all driven by a series of
functions/loops which are filling in the test bodies. There we get much
less bang for our buck in terms of bug-finding versus CPU cost.
This patch introduces a mechanism for controlling when those extra
lint checks are run, at two levels:
- a user can ask to disable or to force-enable the checks by setting
GIT_TEST_CHAIN_LINT_HARDER
- if the user hasn't specified a preference, individual scripts can
disable the checks by setting GIT_TEST_CHAIN_LINT_HARDER_DEFAULT;
scripts which don't set that get the current behavior of enabling
them.
In addition, this patch flips the default for t0027 and t3070's
mass-generated sections to disable the extra checks. Here are the timing
results for t0027:
Benchmark #1: GIT_TEST_CHAIN_LINT_HARDER=1 ./t0027-auto-crlf.sh
Time (mean ± σ): 17.078 s ± 0.848 s [User: 14.878 s, System: 7.075 s]
Range (min … max): 15.952 s … 18.421 s 10 runs
Benchmark #2: GIT_TEST_CHAIN_LINT_HARDER=0 ./t0027-auto-crlf.sh
Time (mean ± σ): 9.063 s ± 0.759 s [User: 7.890 s, System: 3.362 s]
Range (min … max): 7.747 s … 10.619 s 10 runs
Benchmark #3: ./t0027-auto-crlf.sh
Time (mean ± σ): 9.186 s ± 0.881 s [User: 7.957 s, System: 3.427 s]
Range (min … max): 7.796 s … 10.498 s 10 runs
Summary
'GIT_TEST_CHAIN_LINT_HARDER=0 ./t0027-auto-crlf.sh' ran
1.01 ± 0.13 times faster than './t0027-auto-crlf.sh'
1.88 ± 0.18 times faster than 'GIT_TEST_CHAIN_LINT_HARDER=1 ./t0027-auto-crlf.sh'
We can see that disabling the checks for the whole script buys us an
almost 2x speedup. But the new default behavior, disabling them only for
the mass-generated part, gets us most of that speedup (but still leaves
the checks on for further manual tests people might write).
As a side note, I'd caution about comparing runtimes and CPU seconds
between this timing and the earlier "make test" one. In "make test",
we're running a lot of scripts in parallel, so the CPU is throttling
down (and thus a CPU second saved here would count for more during a
parallel run; the same work takes more CPU seconds there).
We get similar results for t3070:
Benchmark #1: GIT_TEST_CHAIN_LINT_HARDER=1 ./t3070-wildmatch.sh
Time (mean ± σ): 20.054 s ± 3.967 s [User: 16.003 s, System: 8.286 s]
Range (min … max): 11.891 s … 23.671 s 10 runs
Benchmark #2: GIT_TEST_CHAIN_LINT_HARDER=0 ./t3070-wildmatch.sh
Time (mean ± σ): 12.399 s ± 2.256 s [User: 7.542 s, System: 5.342 s]
Range (min … max): 9.606 s … 15.727 s 10 runs
Benchmark #3: ./t3070-wildmatch.sh
Time (mean ± σ): 10.726 s ± 3.476 s [User: 6.790 s, System: 4.365 s]
Range (min … max): 5.444 s … 15.376 s 10 runs
Summary
'./t3070-wildmatch.sh' ran
1.16 ± 0.43 times faster than 'GIT_TEST_CHAIN_LINT_HARDER=0 ./t3070-wildmatch.sh'
1.87 ± 0.71 times faster than 'GIT_TEST_CHAIN_LINT_HARDER=1 ./t3070-wildmatch.sh'
Again, we get almost a 2x speedup disabling these. In this case, there
are no tests not covered by the script's "default to disable" behavior,
so the second two benchmarks should be the same (and while they do
differ, you can see the variance is quite high but they're within one
standard deviation).
So it seems like for these two scripts, at least, disabling the extra
checks is a reasonable tradeoff. Sadly, the overall runtime of "make
test" on my system doesn't get much faster. But that's because we're
mostly limited by the cost of the single biggest test. Here are the
top-5 tests by wall-clock time from a parallel run, before my patch:
57.9192368984222 t9001-send-email.sh
45.6329638957977 t0027-auto-crlf.sh
32.5278220176697 t3070-wildmatch.sh
22.2701289653778 t7610-mergetool.sh
20.8635759353638 t1701-racy-split-index.sh
And after:
57.1476998329163 t9001-send-email.sh
33.776211977005 t0027-auto-crlf.sh
21.3116669654846 t7610-mergetool.sh
20.7748689651489 t1701-racy-split-index.sh
19.6957249641418 t7112-reset-submodule.sh
We dropped 12s from t0027, and t3070 dropped off our list entirely at
around 16s. In both cases we're bound by t9001, but its slowness is
due to the actual tests, so we'll have to deal with it in a different
way. But this reduces overall CPU, and means that dealing with t9001 (by
improving the speed of send-email or splitting it apart) will let us
reduce our overall runtime even on multi-core machines.

A directory that is untracked does not imply that all files under it
should be categorized as untracked; in particular, if the caller is
interested in ignored files, many files or directories underneath the
untracked directory may be ignored. We previously partially handled
this right with DIR_SHOW_IGNORED_TOO, but missed DIR_SHOW_IGNORED. It
was not obvious, though, because the logic for untracked and excluded
files had been fused together making it harder to reason about. The
previous commit split that logic out, making it easier to notice that
DIR_SHOW_IGNORED was missing. Add it.

The show_other_directories case in treat_directory() tried to handle
both excludes and untracked files with the same logic, and mishandled
both the excludes and the untracked files in the process, in different
ways. Split that logic apart, and then focus on the logic for the
excludes; a subsequent commit will address the logic for untracked
files.
For show_other_directories, an excluded directory means that
every path underneath that directory will also be excluded. Given that
the calling code requested to just show directories when everything
under a directory had the same state (that's what the
"DIR_SHOW_OTHER_DIRECTORIES" flag means), we generally do not need to
traverse into such directories and can just immediately mark them as
ignored (i.e. as path_excluded). The only reason we cannot just
immediately return path_excluded is the DIR_HIDE_EMPTY_DIRECTORIES flag
and the possibility that the ignored directory is an empty directory.
The code previously treated DIR_SHOW_IGNORED_TOO in most cases as an
exception as well, which was wrong. It can sometimes reduce the number
of cases where we need to recurse (namely if
DIR_SHOW_IGNORED_TOO_MODE_MATCHING is also set), but should not be able
to increase the number of cases where we need to recurse. Fix the logic
accordingly.
Some sidenotes about possible confusion with dir.c:
* "ignored" often refers to an untracked ignore", i.e. a file which is
not tracked which matches one of the ignore/exclusion rules. But you
can also have a "tracked ignore", a tracked file that happens to match
one of the ignore/exclusion rules and which dir.c has to worry about
since "git ls-files -c -i" is supposed to list them.
* The dir code often uses "ignored" and "excluded" interchangeably,
which you need to keep in mind while reading the code.
* "exclude" is used multiple ways in the code:
* As noted above, "exclude" is often a synonym for "ignored".
* The logic for parsing .gitignore files was re-used in
.git/info/sparse-checkout, except there it is used to mark paths that
the user wants to *keep*. This was mostly addressed by commit
65edd96aec ("treewide: rename 'exclude' methods to 'pattern'",
2019-09-03), but every once in a while you'll find a comment about
"exclude" referring to these patterns that might in fact be in use
by the sparse-checkout machinery for inclusion rules.
* The word "EXCLUDE" is also used for pathspec negation, as in
(pathspec->items[3].magic & PATHSPEC_EXCLUDE)
Thus if a user had a .gitignore file containing
*~
*.log
!settings.log
And then ran
git add -- 'settings.*' ':^settings.log'
Then :^settings.log is a pathspec negation making settings.log not
be requested to be added even though all other settings.* files are
being added. Also, !settings.log in the gitignore file is a negative
exclude pattern meaning that settings.log is normally a file we
want to track even though all other *.log files are ignored.
Sometimes it feels like dir.c needs its own glossary with its many
definitions, including the multiply-defined terms.
