The 'clean' target is noticeably slow on cygwin, even for a 'do-nothing'
invocation of 'make clean'. For example, the second 'make clean' below:
$ make clean >/dev/null 2>&1
$ make clean
GIT_VERSION = 2.29.0
...
make[1]: Entering directory '/home/ramsay/git/Documentation'
GEN mergetools-list.made
GEN cmd-list.made
GEN doc.dep
...
$
has been timed at 23.339s, using git v2.29.0, on my laptop (an old core
i5-4200M @ 2.50GHz, 8GB RAM, 1TB HDD).
Notice that, since the 'doc.dep' file does not exist, make takes the
time (about 8s) to generate several files in order to create the doc.dep
include file. (If an 'include' file is missing, but a target for the
said file is present in the Makefile, make will execute that target
and, if that file now exists, throw away all its internal data and
re-read and re-parse the Makefile). Having spent the time to include
the 'doc.dep' file, the 'clean' target immediately deletes those files.
The document dependencies specified in the 'doc.dep' include file,
expressed as make targets and prerequisites, do not affect what the
'clean' target removes. Therefore, the time spent in generating the
dependencies is completely wasted effort.
In order to eliminate such wasted effort, use the value of the internal
$(MAKECMDGOALS) variable to only '-include doc.dep' when the target is
not 'clean'. (This drops the time down to 12.364s, on my laptop, giving
an improvement of 47.02%).

Ralf Thielow reports that "git fetch" with submodule.recurse set can
result in a bogus and infinitely recursive fetching of the same
submodule.
We spawn an external pack-objects process to actually send objects to
the remote side. If we are killed by a signal during this process, then
pack-objects may continue to run. As soon as it starts producing output
for the pack, it will see a failure writing to upload-pack and exit
itself. But before then, it may do significant work traversing the
object graph, compressing deltas, etc, which will all be pointless. So
let's make sure to kill as soon as we know that the caller will not read
the result.
There's no test here, since it's inherently racy, but here's an easy
reproduction is on a large-ish repo like linux.git:
- make sure you don't have pack bitmaps (since they make the enumerating
phase go quickly). For linux.git it takes ~30s or so to walk the
whole graph on my machine.
- run "git clone --no-local -q . dst"; the "-q" is important because
if pack-objects is writing progress to upload-pack (to get
multiplexed over the sideband to the client), then it will notice
pretty quickly the failure to write to stderr
- kill the client-side clone process in another terminal (don't use
^C, as that will send SIGINT to all of the processes)
- run "ps au | grep git" or similar to observe upload-pack dying
within 5 seconds (it will send a keepalive that will notice the
client has gone away)
- but you'll still see pack-objects consuming 100% CPU (and 1GB+ of
RAM) during the traversal and delta compression phases. It will exit
as soon as it starts to write the pack (when it will notice that
upload-pack went away).
With this patch, pack-objects exits as soon as upload-pack does.

When holding the lock for rewriting the credential file, use a timeout
to avoid race conditions when the credentials file needs to be updated

An example would be doing `fetch --all` on a repository with several

The timeout can be configured using "credentialStore.lockTimeoutMS",
defaulting to 1 second.

A review exchange may begin with a reviewer asking "what did you
mean by this phrase in your log message (or here in the doc)?", the
author answering what was meant, and then the reviewer saying "ah,
that is what you meant---then the flow of the logic makes sense".
But that is not the happy end of the story. New contributors often
forget that the material that has been reviewed in the above exchange
is still unclear in the same way to the next person who reads it,
until it gets updated.
While we are in the vicinity, rephrase the verb "request" used to
refer to comments by reviewers to "suggest"---this matches the
contrast between "original" and "suggested" that appears later in
the same paragraph, and more importantly makes it clearer that it is
not like authors are to please reviewers' wishes but rather
reviewers are merely helping authors to polish their commits.

Commit 1c1518071c (submodule: use "fetch" logic instead of custom remote
discovery, 2020-11-14) rewrote the logic in fetch_in_submodule to do:
elif test "$2" -ne ""
But this is nonsense in shell: -ne is for numeric comparisons. This
should be "=" or more idiomatically:
elif test -n "$2"
But once we fix that, many tests start failing. Because that commit
introduced another problem. The caller that passes 3 arguments looks
like this:
fetch_in_submodule "$sm_path" $depth "$sha1"
Note the unquoted $depth parameter. When it isn't set, the function will
see only 2 arguments, and the function has no idea if what it sees in $2
is an option to go on the command line, or a refspec to pass on stdin.
In the old code before that commit:
fetch_in_submodule () (
sanitize_submodule_env &&
cd "$1" &&
- case "$2" in
- '')
- git fetch ;;
- *)
- shift
- git fetch $(get_default_remote) "$@" ;;
- esac
we treated those the same, so it didn't matter. But in the new logic
(with my fix above):
+ if test $# -eq 3
+ then
+ echo "$3" | git fetch --stdin "$2"
+ elif test -n "$n"
+ then
+ git fetch "$2"
+ else
+ git fetch
+ fi
we use the number of parameters to distinguish the two. Let's insist
that the caller pass an empty string for positional parameter two if
they want to have a third parameter after it.
But that still leaves one problem. In the --stdin block, we
unconditionally pass "$2" to git-fetch, even if it's the empty string.
Rather than add another conditional, we can use :+ parameter expansion
to include it only if it's non-empty. In fact, we can do the same for
the elif, too, simplifying it further. Technically this is overkill,
since we know the --depth parameter will not have whitespace (and
indeed, most callers do not bother quoting it), but it doesn't hurt for
the function to be careful.
It's somewhat amazing that no tests were failing. I think what happened
is that:
- the 3-arg form rarely triggered; any call with a non-empty $depth
and a $sha1 would work, but one with an empty $depth would only have
2 arguments
- because of the wrong arguments to "test", the shell would complain
and exit non-zero. So we never ran the middle conditional at all
- that left every call running "git fetch" with no arguments. A
well-written test could have detected the distinction here, but in
practice omitting --depth just means fetching more commits, and
fetching everything (rather than a single sha1) works as long as the
commit in question is reachable
