The comparison functions used for hashmaps don't care about
strict ordering; they only want to compare entries for
equality. Let's use the oideq() function instead, which can
potentially be better optimized. Note that unlike the
previous patches mass-converting calls like "!oidcmp()",
this patch could actually provide an improvement even with
the current implementation. Those comparison functions are
passed around as function pointers, so at compile-time the
compiler cannot realize that the caller (which is in another
file completely) will treat the return value as a boolean.
Note that this does change the return values in quite a
subtle way (it's still an int, but now the sign bit is
irrelevant for ordering). Because of their funny
hashmap-specific signature, it's unlikely that any of these
static functions would be reused for more generic ordering.
But to be double-sure, let's stop using "cmp" in their
names.
Calling them "eq" doesn't quite work either, because the
hashmap convention is actually _inverted_. "0" means "same",
and non-zero means "different". So I've called them "neq" by
convention here.

This rounds out the previous three patches, covering the
inequality logic for the "hash" variant of the functions.
As with the previous three, the accompanying code changes

This is the flip side of the previous two patches: checking
for a non-zero oidcmp() can be more strictly expressed as
inequality. Like those patches, we write "!= 0" in the
coccinelle transformation, which covers by isomorphism the
more common:
if (oidcmp(E1, E2))
As with the previous two patches, this patch can be achieved
almost entirely by running "make coccicheck"; the only
differences are manual line-wrap fixes to match the original
code.
There is one thing to note for anybody replicating this,
though: coccinelle 1.0.4 seems to miss the case in
builtin/tag.c, even though it's basically the same as all
the others. Running with 1.0.7 does catch this, so
presumably it's just a coccinelle bug that was fixed in the
interim.

This is the partner patch to the previous one, but covering
the "hash" variants instead of "oid". Note that our
coccinelle rule is slightly more complex to avoid triggering
the call in hasheq().
I didn't bother to add a new rule to convert:
- hasheq(E1->hash, E2->hash)
+ oideq(E1, E2)
Since these are new functions, there won't be any such
existing callers. And since most of the code is already
using oideq, we're not likely to introduce new ones.
We might still see "!hashcmp(E1->hash, E2->hash)" from topics
in flight. But because our new rule comes after the existing
ones, that should first get converted to "!oidcmp(E1, E2)"
and then to "oideq(E1, E2)".

Using the more restrictive oideq() should, in the long run,
give the compiler more opportunities to optimize these
callsites. For now, this conversion should be a complete
noop with respect to the generated code.
The result is also perhaps a little more readable, as it
avoids the "zero is equal" idiom. Since it's so prevalent in
C, I think seasoned programmers tend not to even notice it
anymore, but it can sometimes make for awkward double
negations (e.g., we can drop a few !!oidcmp() instances
here).
This patch was generated almost entirely by the included
coccinelle patch. This mechanical conversion should be
completely safe, because we check explicitly for cases where
oidcmp() is compared to 0, which is what oideq() is doing
under the hood. Note that we don't have to catch "!oidcmp()"
separately; coccinelle's standard isomorphisms make sure the
two are treated equivalently.
I say "almost" because I did hand-edit the coccinelle output
to fix up a few style violations (it mostly keeps the
original formatting, but sometimes unwraps long lines).

The commit-graph feature is tested in isolation by
t5318-commit-graph.sh and t6600-test-reach.sh, but there are many
more interesting scenarios involving commit walks. Many of these
scenarios are covered by the existing test suite, but we need to
maintain coverage when the optional commit-graph structure is not
present.
To allow running the full test suite with the commit-graph present,
add a new test environment variable, GIT_TEST_COMMIT_GRAPH. Similar
to GIT_TEST_SPLIT_INDEX, this variable makes every Git command try
to load the commit-graph when parsing commits, and writes the
commit-graph file after every 'git commit' command.
There are a few tests that rely on commits not existing in
pack-files to trigger important events, so manually set
GIT_TEST_COMMIT_GRAPH to false for the necessary commands.
There is one test in t6024-recursive-merge.sh that relies on the
merge-base algorithm picking one of two ambiguous merge-bases, and
the commit-graph feature changes which merge-base is picked.

Even with the newly-tightened "---" parser, it's still
possible for a commit message to trigger a false positive if
it contains something like "--- foo". If the caller knows
that it has only a single commit message, it can now tell us
with the "--no-divider" option, eliminating any false
positives.
If we were designing this from scratch, I'd probably make
this the default. But we've advertised the "---" behavior in
the documentation since interpret-trailers has existed.
Since it's meant to be scripted, breaking that would be a
bad idea.
Note that the logic is in the underlying trailer.c code,
which is used elsewhere. The default there will keep the
current behavior, but many callers will benefit from setting
this new option. That's left for future patches.

When we originally did the series that contains 7ba826290a
(revision: add rev_input_given flag, 2017-08-02) the intent
was that "git rev-list --stdin </dev/null" would similarly
become a successful noop. However, an attempt at the time to
do that did not work[1]. The problem is that rev_input_given
serves two roles:
- it tells rev-list.c that it should not error out
- it tells revision.c that it should not have the "default"
ref kick (e.g., "HEAD" in "git log")
We want to trigger the former, but not the latter. This is
technically possible with a single flag, if we set the flag
only after revision.c's revs->def check. But this introduces
a rather subtle ordering dependency.
Instead, let's keep two flags: one to denote when we got
actual input (which triggers both roles) and one for when we
read stdin (which triggers only the first).
This does mean a caller interested in the first role has to
check both flags, but there's only one such caller. And any
future callers might want to make the distinction anyway
(e.g., if they care less about erroring out, and more about
whether revision.c soaked up our stdin).
In fact, we already keep such a flag internally in
revision.c for this purpose, so this is really just exposing
that to the caller (and the old function-local flag can go
away in favor of our new one).

In a recent update in 2.18 era, "git pack-objects" started
producing a larger than necessary packfiles by missing
opportunities to use large deltas.
* nd/pack-deltify-regression-fix:
pack-objects: fix performance issues on packing large deltas
When we serve a fetch, we pass the "wants" and "haves" from
the fetch negotiation to pack-objects. That tells us not
only which objects we need to send, but we also use the
boundary commits as "preferred bases": their trees and blobs
are candidates for delta bases, both for reusing on-disk
deltas and for finding new ones.
However, this misses some opportunities. Modulo some special
cases like shallow or partial clones, we know that every
object reachable from the "haves" could be a preferred base.
We don't use all of them for two reasons:
1. It's expensive to traverse the whole history and
enumerate all of the objects the other side has.
2. The delta search is expensive, so we want to keep the
number of candidate bases sane. The boundary commits
are the most likely to work.
When we have reachability bitmaps, though, reason 1 no
longer applies. We can efficiently compute the set of
reachable objects on the other side (and in fact already did
so as part of the bitmap set-difference to get the list of
interesting objects). And using this set conveniently
covers the shallow and partial cases, since we have to
disable the use of bitmaps for those anyway.
The second reason argues against using these bases in the
search for new deltas. But there's one case where we can use
this information for free: when we have an existing on-disk
delta that we're considering reusing, we can do so if we
know the other side has the base object. This in fact saves
time during the delta search, because it's one less delta we
have to compute.
And that's exactly what this patch does: when we're
considering whether to reuse an on-disk delta, if bitmaps
tell us the other side has the object (and we're making a
thin-pack), then we reuse it.
Here are the results on p5311 using linux.git, which
simulates a client fetching after `N` days since their last
fetch:

In all cases we save CPU time on the server (sometimes
significant) and the resulting pack is smaller. We do spend
more CPU time on the client side, because it has to
reconstruct more deltas. But that's the right tradeoff to
make, since clients tend to outnumber servers. It just means
the thin pack mechanism is doing its job.
From the user's perspective, the end-to-end time of the
operation will generally be faster. E.g., in the 128-day
case, we saved 15s on the server at a cost of 16s on the
client. Since the resulting pack is 34MB smaller, this is a
net win if the network speed is less than 270Mbit/s. And
that's actually the worst case. The 64-day case saves just
over 11s at a cost of just under 11s. So it's a slight win
at any network speed, and the 40MB saved is pure bonus. That
trend continues for the smaller fetches.
The implementation itself is mostly straightforward, with
the new logic going into check_object(). But there are two
tricky bits.
The first is that check_object() needs access to the
relevant information (the thin flag and bitmap result). We
can do this by pushing these into program-lifetime globals.
The second is that the rest of the code assumes that any
reused delta will point to another "struct object_entry" as
its base. But of course the case we are interested in here
is the one where don't have such an entry!
I looked at a number of options that didn't quite work:
- we could use a flag to signal a reused delta, but it's
not a single bit. We have to actually store the oid of
the base, which is normally done by pointing to the
existing object_entry. And we'd have to modify all the
code which looks at deltas.
- we could add the reused bases to the end of the existing
object_entry array. While this does create some extra
work as later stages consider the extra entries, it's
actually not too bad (we're not sending them, so they
don't cost much in the delta search, and at most we'd
have 2*N of them).
But there's a more subtle problem. Adding to the existing
array means we might need to grow it with realloc, which
could move the earlier entries around. While many of the
references to other entries are done by integer index,
some (including ones on the stack) use pointers, which
would become invalidated.
This isn't insurmountable, but it would require quite a
bit of refactoring (and it's hard to know that you've got
it all, since it may work _most_ of the time and then
fail subtly based on memory allocation patterns).
- we could allocate a new one-off entry for the base. In
fact, this is what an earlier version of this patch did.
However, since the refactoring brought in by ad635e82d6
(Merge branch 'nd/pack-objects-pack-struct', 2018-05-23),
the delta_idx code requires that both entries be in the
main packing list.
So taking all of those options into account, what I ended up
with is a separate list of "external bases" that are not
part of the main packing list. Each delta entry that points
to an external base has a single-bit flag to do so; we have a
little breathing room in the bitfield section of
object_entry.
This lets us limit the change primarily to the oe_delta()
and oe_set_delta_ext() functions. And as a bonus, most of
the rest of the code does not consider these dummy entries
at all, saving both runtime CPU and code complexity.

patch makes no assumption about folding rules by the filesystem. It
simply observes that if an entry has been already checked out at clone
time when we're about to write a new path, some folding rules are
behind this.
In the case that we can't rely on filesystem (via inode number) to do
this check, fall back to fspathcmp() which is not perfect but should
not give false positives.
This patch is tested with vim-colorschemes and Sublime-Gitignore
repositories on a JFS partition with case insensitive support on
Linux.

Skip merging the commit, updating the index and working directory if and

Any other checkout options will still go through the former code path.
If sparse_checkout is on, require the user to manually opt in to this
optimzed behavior by setting the config setting checkout.optimizeNewBranch
to true as we will no longer update the skip-worktree bit in the index, nor
add/remove files in the working directory to reflect the current sparse

When submitting a revised version of a patch or series, it can be
helpful (to reviewers) to include a summary of changes since the
previous attempt in the form of a range-diff, typically in the cover
letter. However, it is occasionally useful, despite making for a noisy
read, to insert a range-diff into the commentary section of the lone
patch of a 1-patch series.
Therefore, extend "git format-patch --range-diff=<refspec>" to insert a
range-diff into the commentary section of a lone patch rather than
requiring a cover letter.
Implementation note: Generating a range-diff for insertion into the
commentary section of a patch which itself is currently being generated
requires invoking the diffing machinery recursively. However, the
machinery does not (presently) support this since it uses global state.
Consequently, we need to take care to stash away the state of the
in-progress operation while generating the range-diff, and restore it
after.

revision naming the tip of the previous series, which works fine if the
previous and current versions of the patch series share a common base.
However, it fails if the revision ranges of the old and new versions of

There are a number of very low-level configuration details which need to
be managed precisely to generate a proper range-diff. In particular,
'diff_options' output format, header suppression, indentation, and
dual-color mode must all be set appropriately to ensure proper behavior.
Handle these details locally in the libified range-diff back-end rather
than forcing each caller to have specialized knowledge of these
implementation details, and to avoid duplication as new callers are
added.
While at it, localize these tweaks to be active only while generating
the range-diff, so they don't clobber the caller-provided
'diff_options', which might be used beyond range-diff generation.

The for_each_loose_object() and for_each_packed_object()
functions are meant to be part of a unified interface: they
use the same set of for_each_object_flags, and it's not
inconceivable that we might one day add a single
for_each_object() wrapper around them.
Let's put them together in a single file, so we can avoid
awkwardness like saying "the flags for this function are
over in cache.h". Moving the loose functions to packfile.h
is silly. Moving the packed functions to cache.h works, but
makes the "cache.h is a kitchen sink" problem worse. The
best place is the recently-created object-store.h, since
these are quite obviously related to object storage.
The for_each_*_in_objdir() functions do not use the same
flags, but they are logically part of the same interface as
for_each_loose_object(), and share callback signatures. So
we'll move those, as well, as they also make sense in

add an extra parameter to the callstack. That's more
verbose, but it makes it a bit more obvious what is going

There is one ugly temporary workaround added in attr.c that needs some
more explanation.
Commit c24f3abace (apply: file commited with CRLF should roundtrip
diff and apply - 2017-08-19) forces one convert_to_git() call to NOT
read the index at all. But what do you know, we read it anyway by
falling back to the_index. When "istate" from convert_to_git is now
propagated down to read_attr_from_array() we will hit segfault
somewhere inside read_blob_data_from_index.
The right way of dealing with this is to kill "use_index" variable and
only follow "istate" but at this stage we are not ready for that:
while most git_attr_set_direction() calls just passes the_index to be
assigned to use_index, unpack-trees passes a different one which is
used by entry.c code, which has no way to know what index to use if we
delete use_index. So this has to be done later.

If you're going to access the contents of every object in a
packfile, it's generally much more efficient to do so in
pack order, rather than in hash order. That increases the
locality of access within the packfile, which in turn is
friendlier to the delta base cache, since the packfile puts
related deltas next to each other. By contrast, hash order
is effectively random, since the sha1 has no discernible
relationship to the content.
This patch introduces an "--unordered" option to cat-file
which iterates over packs in pack-order under the hood. You
can see the results when dumping all of the file content:
$ time ./git cat-file --batch-all-objects --buffer --batch | wc -c
6883195596
real 0m44.491s
user 0m42.902s
sys 0m5.230s
$ time ./git cat-file --unordered \
--batch-all-objects --buffer --batch | wc -c
6883195596
real 0m6.075s
user 0m4.774s
sys 0m3.548s
Same output, different order, way faster. The same speed-up
applies even if you end up accessing the object content in a
different process, like:
git cat-file --batch-all-objects --buffer --batch-check |
grep blob |
git cat-file --batch='%(objectname) %(rest)' |
wc -c
Adding "--unordered" to the first command drops the runtime
in git.git from 24s to 3.5s.
Side note: there are actually further speedups available
for doing it all in-process now. Since we are outputting
the object content during the actual pack iteration, we
know where to find the object and could skip the extra
lookup done by oid_object_info(). This patch stops short
of that optimization since the underlying API isn't ready
for us to make those sorts of direct requests.
So if --unordered is so much better, why not make it the
default? Two reasons:
1. We've promised in the documentation that --batch-all-objects
outputs in hash order. Since cat-file is plumbing,
people may be relying on that default, and we can't
change it.
2. It's actually _slower_ for some cases. We have to
compute the pack revindex to walk in pack order. And
our de-duplication step uses an oidset, rather than a
sort-and-dedup, which can end up being more expensive.
If we're just accessing the type and size of each
object, for example, like:
git cat-file --batch-all-objects --buffer --batch-check
my best-of-five warm cache timings go from 900ms to
1100ms using --unordered. Though it's possible in a
cold-cache or under memory pressure that we could do
better, since we'd have better locality within the
packfile.
And one final question: why is it "--unordered" and not
"--pack-order"? The answer is again two-fold:
1. "pack order" isn't a well-defined thing across the
whole set of objects. We're hitting loose objects, as
well as objects in multiple packs, and the only
ordering we're promising is _within_ a single pack. The
rest is apparently random.
2. The point here is optimization. So we don't want to
promise any particular ordering, but only to say that
we will choose an ordering which is likely to be
efficient for accessing the object content. That leaves
the door open for further changes in the future without
having to add another compatibility option.

Just like tbdiff, we now show the diff between matching patches. This is
a "diff of two diffs", so it can be a bit daunting to read for the
beginner.
An alternative would be to display an interdiff, i.e. the hypothetical
diff which is the result of first reverting the old diff and then
applying the new diff.
Especially when rebasing frequently, an interdiff is often not feasible,
though: if the old diff cannot be applied in reverse (due to a moving
upstream), an interdiff can simply not be inferred.
This commit brings `range-diff` closer to feature parity with regard
to tbdiff.
To make `git range-diff` respect e.g. color.diff.* settings, we have
to adjust git_branch_config() accordingly.
Note: while we now parse diff options such as --color, the effect is not
yet the same as in tbdiff, where also the commit pairs would be colored.
This is left for a later commit.
Note also: while tbdiff accepts the `--no-patches` option to suppress
these diffs between patches, we prefer the `-s` (or `--no-patch`) option
that is automatically supported via our use of diff_opt_parse().
And finally note: to support diff options, we have to call
`parse_options()` such that it keeps unknown options, and then loop over
those and let `diff_opt_parse()` handle them. After that loop, we have
to call `parse_options()` again, to make sure that no unknown options
are left.

module `difflib`, Git uses its xdiff fork), the cost matrix calculated
by `range-diff` is different (but very similar) to the one calculated
by `tbdiff`. Therefore, it is possible that they find different matching
commits in corner cases (e.g. when a patch was split into two patches of
roughly equal length).

This command does not do a whole lot so far, apart from showing a usage
that is oddly similar to that of `git tbdiff`. And for a good reason:
the next commits will turn `range-branch` into a full-blown replacement
for `tbdiff`.
At this point, we ignore tbdiff's color options, as they will all be
implemented later using diff_options.

This patch gives life to the skeleton added in the previous patches:
With this change, we can perform a elementary rebase (without any
options).
It can be tested thusly by:
git -c rebase.usebuiltin=true rebase HEAD~2
The rebase backends (i.e. the shell script functions defined in
`git-rebase--<backend>`) are still at work here and the "builtin
rebase"'s purpose is simply to parse the options and set
everything up so that those rebase backends can do their work.
Note: We take an alternative approach here which is *not* to set the
environment variables via `run_command_v_opt_cd_env()` because those
variables would then be visible by processes spawned from the rebase
backends. Instead, we work hard to set them in the shell script snippet.
On Windows, some of the tests fail merely due to core.fileMode not
being heeded that's why the core.*config variables is parsed here.
The `reset_head()` function is currently only used to detach the HEAD
to onto by way of starting the rebase, but it offers additional
functionality that subsequent patches will need like moving to the
original branch (possibly updating it) and also to do the equivalent of
`git reset --hard`.
The next commits will handle and support all the wonderful rebase
options.

This commit imitates the strategy that was used to convert the
difftool to a builtin. We start by renaming the shell script
`git-rebase.sh` to `git-legacy-rebase.sh` and introduce a
`builtin/rebase.c` that simply executes the shell script version,
unless the config setting `rebase.useBuiltin` is set to `true`.
The motivation behind this is to rewrite all the functionality of the
shell script version in the aforementioned `rebase.c`, one by one and
be able to conveniently test new features by configuring
`rebase.useBuiltin`.
In the original difftool conversion, if sane_execvp() that attempts to
run the legacy scripted version returned with non-negative status, the
command silently exited without doing anything with success, but
sane_execvp() should not return with non-negative status in the first
place, so we use die() to notice such an abnormal case.
We intentionally avoid reading the config directly to avoid
messing up the GIT_* environment variables when we need to fall back to
exec()ing the shell script. The test of builtin rebase can be done by
`git -c rebase.useBuiltin=true rebase ...`

Parseopt wraps argument help strings in a pair of angular brackets by
default, to tell users that they need to replace it with an actual

are indeed single values of a certain type. The option
PARSE_OPT_LITERAL_ARGHELP needs to be used in option definitions with
arguments that have multiple parts or are literal strings.
Stop adding these angular brackets if special characters are present,

The option help text for the force-with-lease option to "git push"
reads like this:
$ git push -h 2>&1 | grep -e force-with-lease
--force-with-lease[=<refname>:<expect>]
which comes from having N_("refname>:<expect") as the argument help
text in the source code, with an aparent lack of "<" and ">" at both
ends.
It turns out that parse-options machinery takes the whole string and
encloses it inside a pair of "<>", to make it easier for majority
cases that uses a single token placeholder.
The help string was written in a funnily unbalanced way knowing that
the end result would balance out, by somebody who forgot the
presence of PARSE_OPT_LITERAL_ARGHELP, which is the escape hatch
mechanism designed to help such a case. We just should use the
official escape hatch instead.
Because ":<expect>" part can be omitted to ask Git to guess, it may
be more correct to spell it as "<refname>[:<expect>]", but that is
not the focus of this topic.

When a user fetches:
- at least one up-to-date ref and at least one non-up-to-date ref,
- using HTTP with protocol v0 (or something else that uses the fetch
command of a remote helper)
some refs might not be updated after the fetch.
This bug was introduced in commit 989b8c4452 ("fetch-pack: put shallow
info in output parameter", 2018-06-28) which allowed transports to
report the refs that they have fetched in a new out-parameter
"fetched_refs". If they do so, transport_fetch_refs() makes this
information available to its caller.
Users of "fetched_refs" rely on the following 3 properties:
(1) it is the complete list of refs that was passed to
transport_fetch_refs(),
(2) it has shallow information (REF_STATUS_REJECT_SHALLOW set if
relevant), and
(3) it has updated OIDs if ref-in-want was used (introduced after
989b8c4452).
In an effort to satisfy (1), whenever transport_fetch_refs()
filters the refs sent to the transport, it re-adds the filtered refs to
whatever the transport supplies before returning it to the user.
However, the implementation in 989b8c4452 unconditionally re-adds the
filtered refs without checking if the transport refrained from reporting
anything in "fetched_refs" (which it is allowed to do), resulting in an
incomplete list, no longer satisfying (1).
An earlier effort to resolve this [1] solved the issue by readding the
filtered refs only if the transport did not refrain from reporting in
"fetched_refs", but after further discussion, it seems that the better
solution is to revert the API change that introduced "fetched_refs".
This API change was first suggested as part of a ref-in-want
implementation that allowed for ref patterns and, thus, there could be
drastic differences between the input refs and the refs actually fetched
[2]; we eventually decided to only allow exact ref names, but this API
change remained even though its necessity was decreased.
Therefore, revert this API change by reverting commit 989b8c4452, and
make receive_wanted_refs() update the OIDs in the sought array (like how
update_shallow() updates shallow information in the sought array)
instead. A test is also included to show that the user-visible bug
discussed at the beginning of this commit message no longer exists.

When we initially added the strbuf_readlink() function in
b11b7e13f4 (Add generic 'strbuf_readlink()' helper function,
2008-12-17), the point was that we generally have a _guess_
as to the correct size based on the stat information, but we
can't necessarily trust it.
Over the years, a few callers have grown up that simply pass
in 0, even though they have the stat information. Let's have
them pass in their hint for consistency (and in theory
efficiency, since it may avoid an extra resize/syscall loop,
but neither location is probably performance critical).
Note that st.st_size is actually an off_t, so in theory we
need xsize_t() here. But none of the other callsites use it,
and since this is just a hint, it doesn't matter either way
(if we wrap we'll simply start with a too-small hint and
then eventually complain when we cannot allocate the
memory).

When performing tag following, in addition to using the server's
"include-tag" capability to send tag objects (and emulating it if the
server does not support that capability), "git fetch" relies upon the
presence of refs/tags/* entries in the initial ref advertisement to
locally create refs pointing to the aforementioned tag objects. When
using protocol v2, refs/tags/* entries in the initial ref advertisement
may be suppressed by a ref-prefix argument, leading to the tag object
being downloaded, but the ref not being created.
Commit dcc73cf7ff ("fetch: generate ref-prefixes when using a configured
refspec", 2018-05-18) ensured that "refs/tags/" is always sent as a ref
prefix when "git fetch" is invoked with no refspecs, but not when "git
fetch" is invoked with refspecs. Extend that functionality to make it
work in both situations.
This also necessitates a change another test which tested ref
advertisement filtering using tag refs - since tag refs are sent by
default now, the test has been switched to using branch refs instead.

When submitting a revised version of a patch or series, it can be
helpful (to reviewers) to include a summary of changes since the
previous attempt in the form of an interdiff, typically in the cover
letter. However, it is occasionally useful, despite making for a noisy
read, to insert an interdiff into the commentary section of the lone

Therefore, extend "git format-patch --interdiff=<prev>" to insert an

requiring a cover letter. The interdiff is indented to avoid confusing
git-am and human readers into considering it part of the patch proper.
Implementation note: Generating an interdiff for insertion into the
commentary section of a patch which itself is currently being generated
requires invoking the diffing machinery recursively. However, the
machinery does not (presently) support this since it uses global state.
Consequently, we need to take care to stash away the state of the

after.

make_cover_letter() returns early when it lacks sufficient state to emit
a diffstat, which makes it difficult to extend the function to reliably
emit additional generated content. Work around this shortcoming by
factoring diffstat-printing logic out to its own function and calling it
as needed without otherwise inhibiting normal control flow.

reduce diff noise in those commits. Changes are
- keep the first letter of die(), error() and warning() in lowercase
- no full stop in die(), error() or warning() if it's single sentence
messages
- indentation
- some messages are turned to BUG(), or prefixed with "BUG:" and will
not be marked for i18n
- some messages are improved to give more information
- some messages are broken down by sentence to be i18n friendly

Let's start with some background about oe_delta_size() and
oe_set_delta_size(). If you already know, skip the next paragraph.
These two are added in 0aca34e826 (pack-objects: shrink delta_size
field in struct object_entry - 2018-04-14) to help reduce 'struct
object_entry' size. The delta size field in this struct is reduced to
only contain max 1MB. So if any new delta is produced and larger than
1MB, it's dropped because we can't really save such a large size
anywhere. Fallback is provided in case existing packfiles already have
large deltas, then we can retrieve it from the pack.
While this should help small machines repacking large repos without
large deltas (i.e. less memory pressure), dropping large deltas during
the delta selection process could end up with worse pack files. And if
existing packfiles already have >1MB delta and pack-objects is
instructed to not reuse deltas, all of them will be dropped on the
floor, and the resulting pack would be definitely bigger.
There is also a regression in terms of CPU/IO if we have large on-disk
deltas because fallback code needs to parse the pack every time the
delta size is needed and just access to the mmap'd pack data is enough
for extra page faults when memory is under pressure.
Both of these issues were reported on the mailing list. Here's some
numbers for comparison.
Version Pack (MB) MaxRSS(kB) Time (s)
------- --------- ---------- --------
2.17.0 5498 43513628 2494.85
2.18.0 10531 40449596 4168.94
This patch provides a better fallback that is
- cheaper in terms of cpu and io because we won't have to read
existing pack files as much
- better in terms of pack size because the pack heuristics is back to
2.17.0 time, we do not drop large deltas at all
If we encounter any delta (on-disk or created during try_delta phase)
that is larger than the 1MB limit, we stop using delta_size_ field for
this because it can't contain such size anyway. A new array of delta
size is dynamically allocated and can hold all the deltas that 2.17.0
can. This array only contains delta sizes that delta_size_ can't
contain.
With this, we do not have to drop deltas in try_delta() anymore. Of
course the downside is we use slightly more memory, even compared to
2.17.0. But since this is considered an uncommon case, a bit more
memory consumption should not be a problem.
Delta size limit is also raised from 1MB to 16MB to better cover
common case and avoid that extra memory consumption (99.999% deltas in
this reported repo are under 12MB; Jeff noted binary artifacts topped
out at about 3MB in some other private repos). Other fields are
shuffled around to keep this struct packed tight. We don't use more
memory in common case even with this limit update.
A note about thread synchronization. Since this code can be run in
parallel during delta searching phase, we need a mutex. The realloc
part in packlist_alloc() is not protected because it only happens
during the object counting phase, which is always single-threaded.
Access to e->delta_size_ (and by extension
pack->delta_size[e - pack->objects]) is unprotected as before, the
thread scheduler in pack-objects must make sure "e" is never updated
by two different threads.
The area under the new lock is as small as possible, avoiding locking
at all in common case, since lock contention with high thread count
could be expensive (most blobs are small enough that delta compute
time is short and we end up taking the lock very often). The previous
attempt to always hold a lock in oe_delta_size() and
oe_set_delta_size() increases execution time by 33% when repacking
linux.git with with 40 threads.

Some build machines started consistently failing to fetch updated
source using "repo sync", with error
error: The last gc run reported the following. Please correct the root cause
and remove /build/.repo/projects/tools/git.git/gc.log.
Automatic cleanup will not be performed until the file is removed.
warning: There are too many unreachable loose objects; run 'git prune' to remove them.
The cause takes some time to describe.
In v2.0.0-rc0~145^2 (gc: config option for running --auto in
background, 2014-02-08), "git gc --auto" learned to run in the
background instead of blocking the invoking command. In this mode, it
closed stderr to avoid interleaving output with any subsequent
commands, causing warnings like the above to be swallowed; v2.6.3~24^2
(gc: save log from daemonized gc --auto and print it next time,
2015-09-19) addressed that by storing any diagnostic output in
.git/gc.log and allowing the next "git gc --auto" run to print it.
To avoid wasteful repeated fruitless gcs, when gc.log is present, the
subsequent "gc --auto" would die after printing its contents. Most
git commands, such as "git fetch", ignore the exit status from "git gc
--auto" so all is well at this point: the user gets to see the error
message, and the fetch succeeds, without a wasteful additional attempt
at an automatic gc.
External tools like repo[1], though, do care about the exit status
from "git gc --auto". In non-daemonized mode, the exit status is
straightforward: if there is an error, it is nonzero, but after a
warning like the above, the status is zero. The daemonized mode, as a
side effect of the other properties provided, offers a very strange
exit code convention:
- if no housekeeping was required, the exit status is 0
- the first real run, after forking into the background, returns exit
status 0 unconditionally. The parent process has no way to know
whether gc will succeed.
- if there is any diagnostic output in gc.log, subsequent runs return
a nonzero exit status to indicate that gc was not triggered.
There's nothing for the calling program to act on on the basis of that
error. Use status 0 consistently instead, to indicate that we decided
not to run a gc (just like if no housekeeping was required). This
way, repo and similar tools can get the benefit of the same behavior
as tools like "git fetch" that ignore the exit status from gc --auto.
Once the period of time described by gc.pruneExpire elapses, the
unreachable loose objects will be removed by "git gc --auto"
automatically.

Like GNU grep, this patch ignores --only-matching when --invert (-v) is
given. There is a sensible answer here, but parity with the behavior of
other tools is preferred.
Because a line might contain more than one match, there are special
considerations pertaining to when to print line headers, newlines, and
how to increment the match column offset. The line header and newlines
are handled as a special case within the main loop to avoid polluting

During negotiation, fetch-pack eventually reports as "have" lines all
commits reachable from all refs. Allow the user to restrict the commits
sent in this way by providing a whitelist of tips; only the tips
themselves and their ancestors will be sent.
Both globs and single objects are supported.
This feature is only supported for protocols that support connect or

This will speed up negotiation when the repository has multiple
relatively independent branches (for example, when a repository
interacts with multiple repositories, such as with linux-next [1] and
torvalds/linux [2]), and the user knows which local branch is likely to
have commits in common with the upstream branch they are fetching.

When fetching, connectivity is checked after the shallow file is
updated. There are 2 issues with this: (1) the connectivity check is
only performed up to ancestors of existing refs (which is not thorough
enough if we were deepening an existing ref in the first place), and (2)
there is no rollback of the shallow file if the connectivity check
fails.
To solve (1), update the connectivity check to check the ancestry chain
completely in the case of a deepening fetch by refraining from passing
"--not --all" when invoking rev-list in connected.c.
To solve (2), have fetch_pack() perform its own connectivity check
before updating the shallow file. To support existing use cases in which
"git fetch-pack" is used to download objects without much regard as to
the connectivity of the resulting objects with respect to the existing
repository, the connectivity check is only done if necessary (that is,
the fetch is not a clone, and the fetch involves shallow/deepen
functionality). "git fetch" still performs its own connectivity check,
preserving correctness but sometimes performing redundant work. This
redundancy is mitigated by the fact that fetch_pack() reports if it has
performed a connectivity check itself, and if the transport supports
connect or stateless-connect, it will bubble up that report so that "git
fetch" knows not to perform the connectivity check in such a case.
This was noticed when a user tried to deepen an existing repository by
fetching with --no-shallow from a server that did not send all necessary
objects - the connectivity check as run by "git fetch" succeeded, but a
subsequent "git fsck" failed.

It has been observed that the time spent loading an index with a large
number of entries is partly dominated by malloc() calls. This change
is in preparation for using memory pools to reduce the number of
malloc() calls made to allocate cahce entries when loading an index.
Add an API to allocate and discard cache entries, abstracting the
details of managing the memory backing the cache entries. This commit
does actually change how memory is managed - this will be done in a
later commit in the series.
This change makes the distinction between cache entries that are
associated with an index and cache entries that are not associated with
an index. A main use of cache entries is with an index, and we can
optimize the memory management around this. We still have other cases
where a cache entry is not persisted with an index, and so we need to
handle the "transient" use case as well.
To keep the congnitive overhead of managing the cache entries, there
will only be a single discard function. This means there must be enough
information kept with the cache entry so that we know how to discard
them.
A summary of the main functions in the API is:
make_cache_entry: create cache entry for use in an index. Uses specified
parameters to populate cache_entry fields.
make_empty_cache_entry: Create an empty cache entry for use in an index.
Returns cache entry with empty fields.
make_transient_cache_entry: create cache entry that is not used in an
index. Uses specified parameters to populate
cache_entry fields.
make_empty_transient_cache_entry: create cache entry that is not used in
an index. Returns cache entry with
empty fields.
discard_cache_entry: A single function that knows how to discard a cache
entry regardless of how it was allocated.

The other "mode" options of git-branch have short-option
aliases that are easy to type (e.g., "-d" and "-m"). Let's
give "--list" the same treatment.
This also makes it consistent with the similar "git tag -l"
option.
We didn't do this originally because "--create-reflog" was
squatting on the "-l" option. Now that we've deprecated that
use for long enough, we can make the switch.

The "-l" option is short for "--create-reflog". This has
caused much confusion over the years. Most people expect it
to work as "--list", because that would match the other
"mode" options like -d/--delete and -m/--move, as well as
the similar -l/--list option of git-tag.
Adding to the confusion, using "-l" _appears_ to work as
"--list" in some cases:
$ git branch -l
* master
because the branch command defaults to listing (so even
trying to specify --list in the command above is redundant).
But that may bite the user later when they add a pattern,
like:
$ git branch -l foo
which does not return an empty list, but in fact creates a
new branch (with a reflog, naturally) called "foo".
It's also probably quite uncommon for people to actually use
"-l" to create a reflog. Since 0bee591869 (Enable reflogs by
default in any repository with a working directory.,
2006-12-14), this is the default in non-bare repositories.
So it's rather unfortunate that the feature squats on the
short-and-sweet "-l" (which was only added in 3a4b3f269c
(Create/delete branch ref logs., 2006-05-19), meaning there
were only 7 months where it was actually useful).
Let's deprecate "-l" in hopes of eventually re-purposing it
to "--list".
Note that we issue the warning only when we're not in list
mode. This means that people for whom it works as a happy
accident, namely:
$ git branch -l
master
won't see the warning at all. And when we eventually switch
to it meaning "--list", that will just continue to work.
We do the issue the warning for these important cases:
- when we are actually creating a branch, in case the user
really did mean it as "--create-reflog"
- when we are in some _other_ mode, like deletion. There
the "-l" is a noop for now, but it will eventually
conflict with any other mode request, and the user
should be told that this is changing.

Remove the bitmap_git global variable. Instead, generate on demand an
instance of struct bitmap_index for code that needs to access it.
This allows us significant control over the lifetime of instances of
struct bitmap_index. In particular, packs can now be closed without
worrying if an unnecessarily long-lived "pack" field in struct
bitmap_index still points to it.
The bitmap API is also clearer in that we need to first obtain a struct
bitmap_index, then we use it.
This patch raises two potential issues: (1) memory for the struct
bitmap_index is allocated without being freed, and (2)
prepare_bitmap_git() and prepare_bitmap_walk() can reuse a previously
loaded bitmap. For (1), this will be dealt with in a subsequent patch in
this patch set that also deals with freeing the contents of the struct
bitmap_index (which were not freed previously, because they have global
scope). For (2), current bitmap users only load the bitmap once at most
(note that pack-objects can use bitmaps or write bitmaps, but not both
at the same time), so support for reuse has no effect - and future users
can pass around the struct bitmap_index * obtained if they need to do 2
or more things with the same bitmap.

Introduce a checkout.defaultRemote setting which can be used to
designate a remote to prefer (via checkout.defaultRemote=origin) when
running e.g. "git checkout master" to mean origin/master, even though
there's other remotes that have the "master" branch.
I want this because it's very handy to use this workflow to checkout a
repository and create a topic branch, then get back to a "master" as
retrieved from upstream:
(
cd /tmp &&
rm -rf tbdiff &&
git clone git@github.com:trast/tbdiff.git &&
cd tbdiff &&
git branch -m topic &&
git checkout master
)
That will output:
Branch 'master' set up to track remote branch 'master' from 'origin'.
Switched to a new branch 'master'
But as soon as a new remote is added (e.g. just to inspect something
from someone else) the DWIMery goes away:
(
cd /tmp &&
rm -rf tbdiff &&
git clone git@github.com:trast/tbdiff.git &&
cd tbdiff &&
git branch -m topic &&
git remote add avar git@github.com:avar/tbdiff.git &&
git fetch avar &&
git checkout master
)
Will output (without the advice output added earlier in this series):
error: pathspec 'master' did not match any file(s) known to git.
The new checkout.defaultRemote config allows me to say that whenever
that ambiguity comes up I'd like to prefer "origin", and it'll still
work as though the only remote I had was "origin".
Also adjust the advice.checkoutAmbiguousRemoteBranchName message to
mention this new config setting to the user, the full output on my
git.git is now (the last paragraph is new):
$ ./git --exec-path=$PWD checkout master
error: pathspec 'master' did not match any file(s) known to git.
hint: 'master' matched more than one remote tracking branch.
hint: We found 26 remotes with a reference that matched. So we fell back
hint: on trying to resolve the argument as a path, but failed there too!
hint:
hint: If you meant to check out a remote tracking branch on, e.g. 'origin',
hint: you can do so by fully qualifying the name with the --track option:
hint:
hint: git checkout --track origin/<name>
hint:
hint: If you'd like to always have checkouts of an ambiguous <name> prefer
hint: one remote, e.g. the 'origin' remote, consider setting
hint: checkout.defaultRemote=origin in your config.
I considered splitting this into checkout.defaultRemote and
worktree.defaultRemote, but it's probably less confusing to break our
own rules that anything shared between config should live in core.*
than have two config settings, and I couldn't come up with a short
name under core.* that made sense (core.defaultRemoteForCheckout?).

As the "checkout" documentation describes:
If <branch> is not found but there does exist a tracking branch in
exactly one remote (call it <remote>) with a matching name, treat
as equivalent to [...] <remote>/<branch.
This is a really useful feature. The problem is that when you add
another remote (e.g. a fork), git won't find a unique branch name
anymore, and will instead print this unhelpful message:
$ git checkout master
error: pathspec 'master' did not match any file(s) known to git
Now it will, on my git.git checkout, print:
$ ./git --exec-path=$PWD checkout master
error: pathspec 'master' did not match any file(s) known to git.
hint: 'master' matched more than one remote tracking branch.
hint: We found 26 remotes with a reference that matched. So we fell back
hint: on trying to resolve the argument as a path, but failed there too!
hint:
hint: If you meant to check out a remote tracking branch on, e.g. 'origin',
hint: you can do so by fully qualifying the name with the --track option:
hint:
hint: git checkout --track origin/<name>
Note that the "error: pathspec[...]" message is still printed. This is
because whatever else checkout may have tried earlier, its final
fallback is to try to resolve the argument as a path. E.g. in this
case:
$ ./git --exec-path=$PWD checkout master pu
error: pathspec 'master' did not match any file(s) known to git.
error: pathspec 'pu' did not match any file(s) known to git.
There we don't print the "hint:" implicitly due to earlier logic
around the DWIM fallback. That fallback is only used if it looks like
we have one argument that might be a branch.
I can't think of an intrinsic reason for why we couldn't in some
future change skip printing the "error: pathspec[...]" error. However,
to do so we'd need to pass something down to checkout_paths() to make
it suppress printing an error on its own, and for us to be confident
that we're not silencing cases where those errors are meaningful.
I don't think that's worth it since determining whether that's the
case could easily change due to future changes in the checkout logic.

Commit 73c3f0f704 (index-pack: check .gitmodules files with
--strict, 2018-05-04) added a call to add_packed_git(), with
the intent that the newly-indexed objects would be available
to the process when we run fsck_finish(). But that's not
what add_packed_git() does. It only allocates the struct,
and you must install_packed_git() on the result. So that
call was effectively doing nothing (except leaking a
struct).
But wait, we passed all of the tests! Does that mean we
don't need the call at all?
For normal cases, no. When we run "index-pack --stdin"
inside a repository, we write the new pack into the object
directory. If fsck_finish() needs to access one of the new
objects, then our initial lookup will fail to find it, but
we'll follow up by running reprepare_packed_git() and
looking again. That logic was meant to handle somebody else
repacking simultaneously, but it ends up working for us
here.
But there is a case that does need this, that we were not
testing. You can run "git index-pack foo.pack" on any file,
even when it is not inside the object directory. Or you may
not even be in a repository at all! This case fails without
doing the proper install_packed_git() call.
We can make this work by adding the install call.
Note that we should be prepared to handle add_packed_git()
failing. We can just silently ignore this case, though. If
fsck_finish() later needs the objects and they're not
available, it will complain itself. And if it doesn't
(because we were able to resolve the whole fsck in the first
pass), then it actually isn't an interesting error at all.

Leak plugging.
* ma/unpack-trees-free-msgs:
unpack_trees_options: free messages when done
argv-array: return the pushed string from argv_push*()
merge-recursive: provide pair of `unpack_trees_{start,finish}()`
merge: setup `opts` later in `checkout_fast_forward()`
"git fetch $there $refspec" that talks over protocol v2 can take
advantage of server-side ref filtering; the code has been extended
so that this mechanism triggers also when fetching with configured
refspec.
