4e55ed32db add: add --chmod=+x / --chmod=-x options
The executable bit will not be detected (and therefore will not be
set) for paths in a repository with `core.filemode` set to false,
though the users may still wish to add files as executable for
compatibility with other users who _do_ have `core.filemode`
functionality.  For example, Windows users adding shell scripts may
wish to add them as executable for compatibility with users on
non-Windows.

Although this can be done with a plumbing command
(`git update-index --add --chmod=+x foo`), teaching the `git-add`
command allows users to set a file executable with a command that
they're already familiar with.

f30afdabbf mingw: introduce the 'core.hideDotFiles' setting
On Unix (and Linux), files and directories whose names start with a dot
are usually not shown by default. This convention is used by Git: the
.git/ directory should be left alone by regular users, and only accessed
through Git itself.

On Windows, no such convention exists. Instead, there is an explicit flag
to mark files or directories as hidden.

In the early days, Git for Windows did not mark the .git/ directory (or
for that matter, any file or directory whose name starts with a dot)
hidden. This lead to quite a bit of confusion, and even loss of data.

Consequently, Git for Windows introduced the core.hideDotFiles setting,
with three possible values: true, false, and dotGitOnly, defaulting to
marking only the .git/ directory as hidden.

The rationale: users do not need to access .git/ directly, and indeed (as
was demonstrated) should not really see that directory, either. However,
not all dot files should be hidden by default, as e.g. Eclipse does not
show them (and the user would therefore be unable to see, say, a
.gitattributes file).

In over five years since the last attempt to bring this patch into core
Git, a slightly buggy version of this patch has served Git for Windows'
users well: no single report indicated problems with the hidden .git/
directory, and the stream of problems caused by the previously non-hidden
.git/ directory simply stopped. The bugs have been fixed during the
process of getting this patch upstream.

Note that there is a funny quirk we have to pay attention to when
creating hidden files: we use Win32's _wopen() function which
transmogrifies its arguments and hands off to Win32's CreateFile()
function. That latter function errors out with ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED (the
equivalent of EACCES) when the equivalent of the O_CREAT flag was passed
and the file attributes (including the hidden flag) do not match an
existing file's. And _wopen() accepts no parameter that would be
transmogrified into said hidden flag. Therefore, we simply try again
without O_CREAT.

A slightly different method is required for our fopen()/freopen()
function as we cannot even *remove* the implicit O_CREAT flag.
Therefore, we briefly mark existing files as unhidden when opening them
via fopen()/freopen().

The ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED error can also be triggered by opening a file
that is marked as a system file (which is unlikely to be tracked in
Git), and by trying to create a file that has *just* been deleted and is
awaiting the last open handles to be released (which would be handled
better by the "Try again?" logic, a story for a different patch series,
though). In both cases, it does not matter much if we try again without
the O_CREAT flag, read: it does not hurt, either.

For details how ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED can be triggered, see

867ad08a26 hooks: allow customizing where the hook directory is
Change the hardcoded lookup for .git/hooks/* to optionally lookup in
$(git config core.hooksPath)/* instead.

This is essentially a more intrusive version of the git-init ability to
specify hooks on init time via init templates.

The difference between that facility and this feature is that this can
be set up after the fact via e.g. ~/.gitconfig or /etc/gitconfig to
apply for all your personal repositories, or all repositories on the
system.

I plan on using this on a centralized Git server where users can create
arbitrary repositories under /gitroot, but I'd like to manage all the
hooks that should be run centrally via a unified dispatch mechanism.

652f18ee87 setup: unify repository version callbacks
Once upon a time, check_repository_format_gently would parse
the config with a single callback, and that callback would
set up a bunch of global variables. But now that we have
separate workdirs, we have to be more careful. Commit
31e26eb (setup.c: support multi-checkout repo setup,
2014-11-30) introduced a reduced callback which omits some
values like core.worktree. In the "main" callback we call
the reduced one, and then add back in the missing variables.

Now that we have split the config-parsing from the munging
of the global variables, we can do it all with a single
callback, and keep all of the "are we in a separate workdir"
logic together.

2cc7c2c737 setup: refactor repo format reading and verification
When we want to know if we're in a git repository of
reasonable vintage, we can call check_repository_format_gently(),
which does three things:

  1. Reads the config from the .git/config file.

  2. Verifies that the version info we read is sane.

  3. Writes some global variables based on this.

There are a few things we could improve here.

One is that steps 1 and 3 happen together. So if the
verification in step 2 fails, we still clobber the global
variables. This is especially bad if we go on to try another
repository directory; we may end up with a state of mixed
config variables.

The second is there's no way to ask about the repository
version for anything besides the main repository we're in.
git-init wants to do this, and it's possible that we would
want to start doing so for submodules (e.g., to find out
which ref backend they're using).

We can improve both by splitting the first two steps into
separate functions. Now check_repository_format_gently()
calls out to steps 1 and 2, and does 3 only if step 2
succeeds.

Note that the public interface for read_repository_format()
and what check_repository_format_gently() needs from it are
not quite the same, leading us to have an extra
read_repository_format_1() helper. The extra needs from
check_repository_format_gently() will go away in a future
patch, and we can simplify this then to just the public
interface.

It would be useful to control access to the global
shared_repository, so that we can lazily load its config.

goes through a set of functions.

46c3cd44d7 setup: make startup_info available everywhere
Commit a60645f (setup: remember whether repository was
found, 2010-08-05) introduced the startup_info structure,
which records some parts of the setup_git_directory()
process (notably, whether we actually found a repository or
not).

One of the uses of this data is for functions to behave
appropriately based on whether we are in a repo. But the
startup_info struct is just a pointer to storage provided by
the main program, and the only program that sets it up is
the git.c wrapper. Thus builtins have access to
startup_info, but externally linked programs do not.

Worse, library code which is accessible from both has to be
careful about accessing startup_info. This can be used to
trigger a die("BUG") via get_sha1():

	$ git fast-import <<-\EOF
	tag foo
	from HEAD:./whatever
	EOF

	fatal: BUG: startup_info struct is not initialized.

Obviously that's fairly nonsensical input to feed to
fast-import, but we should never hit a die("BUG"). And there
may be other ways to trigger it if other non-builtins
resolve sha1s.

So let's point the storage for startup_info to a static
variable in setup.c, making it available to all users of the
library code. We _could_ turn startup_info into a regular
extern struct, but doing so would mean tweaking all of the
existing use sites. So let's leave the pointer indirection
in place.  We can, however, drop any checks for NULL, as
they will always be false (and likewise, we can drop the
test covering this case, which was a rather artificial
situation using one of the test-* programs).

47fe3f6ef0 nth_packed_object_offset: bounds-check extended offset
If a pack .idx file has a corrupted offset for an object, we
may try to access an offset in the .idx or .pack file that
is larger than the file's size.  For the .pack case, we have
use_pack() to protect us, which realizes the access is out
of bounds. But if the corrupted value asks us to look in the
.idx file's secondary 64-bit offset table, we blindly add it
to the mmap'd index data and access arbitrary memory.

We can fix this with a simple bounds-check compared to the
size we found when we opened the .idx file.

Note that there's similar code in index-pack that is
triggered only during "index-pack --verify". To support
both, we pull the bounds-check into a separate function,
which dies when it sees a corrupted file.

It would be nice if we could return an error, so that the
pack code could try to find a good copy of the object
elsewhere. Currently nth_packed_object_offset doesn't have
any way to return an error, but it could probably use "0" as
a sentinel value (since no object can start there). This is
the minimal fix, and we can improve the resilience later on
top.

To correctly perform its testing function,
test-dump-untracked-cache should not change the state of the
untracked cache in the index.

As a previous patch makes read_index_from() change the state of
the untracked cache and as test-dump-untracked-cache indirectly
calls this function, we need a mechanism to prevent
read_index_from() from changing the untracked cache state when
it's called from test-dump-untracked-cache.

435ec090ec config: add core.untrackedCache
When we know that mtime on directory as given by the environment
is usable for the purpose of untracked cache, we may want the
untracked cache to be always used without any mtime test or
kernel name check being performed.

Also when we know that mtime is not usable for the purpose of
untracked cache, for example because the repo is shared over a
network file system, we may want the untracked-cache to be
automatically removed from the index.

Allow the user to express such preference by setting the
'core.untrackedCache' configuration variable, which can take
'keep', 'false', or 'true' and default to 'keep'.

When read_index_from() is called, it now adds or removes the
untracked cache in the index to respect the value of this
variable. So it does nothing if the value is `keep` or if the
variable is unset; it adds the untracked cache if the value is
`true`; and it removes the cache if the value is `false`.

`git update-index --[no-|force-]untracked-cache` still adds the
untracked cache to, or removes it, from the index, but this
shows a warning if it goes against the value of
core.untrackedCache, because the next time the index is read
the untracked cache will be added or removed if the
configuration is set to do so.

Also `--untracked-cache` used to check that the underlying
operating system and file system change `st_mtime` field of a
directory if files are added or deleted in that directory. But
because those tests take a long time, `--untracked-cache` no
longer performs them. Instead, there is now
`--test-untracked-cache` to perform the tests. This change
makes `--untracked-cache` the same as `--force-untracked-cache`.

This last change is backward incompatible and should be
mentioned in the release notes.

ffd036b128 clean: make is_git_repository a public function
We have always had is_git_directory(), for looking at a
specific directory to see if it contains a git repo. In
0179ca7 (clean: improve performance when removing lots of
directories, 2015-06-15), we added is_git_repository() which
checks for a non-bare repository by looking at its ".git"
entry.

However, the fix in 0179ca7 needs to be applied other
places, too. Let's make this new helper globally available.
We need to give it a better name, though, to avoid confusion
with is_git_directory(). This patch does that, documents
both functions with a comment to reduce confusion, and
removes the clean-specific references in the comments.

9a93c6686f avoid shifting signed integers 31 bits
We sometimes use 32-bit unsigned integers as bit-fields.
It's fine to access the MSB, because it's unsigned. However,
doing so as "1 << 31" is wrong, because the constant "1" is
a signed int, and we shift into the sign bit, causing
undefined behavior.

We can fix this by using "1U" as the constant.

9d98bbf578 pack-revindex: store entries directly in packed_git
A pack_revindex struct has two elements: the revindex
entries themselves, and a pointer to the packed_git. We need
both to do lookups, because only the latter knows things
like the number of objects in the pack.

Now that packed_git contains the pack_revindex struct it's
just as easy to pass around the packed_git itself, and we do
not need the extra back-pointer.

We can instead just store the entries directly in the pack.
All functions which took a pack_revindex now just take a
packed_git. We still lazy-load in find_pack_revindex, so
most callers are unaffected.

The exception is the bitmap code, which computes the
revindex and caches the pointer when we load the bitmaps. We
can continue to load, drop the extra cache pointer, and just
access bitmap_git.pack.revindex directly.

f4015337da pack-revindex: drop hash table
The main entry point to the pack-revindex code is
find_pack_revindex(). This calls revindex_for_pack(), which
lazily computes and caches the revindex for the pack.

We store the cache in a very simple hash table. It's created
by init_pack_revindex(), which inserts an entry for every
packfile we know about, and we never grow or shrink the
hash. If we ever need the revindex for a pack that isn't in
the hash, we die() with an internal error.

This can lead to a race, because we may load more packs
after having called init_pack_revindex(). For example,
imagine we have one process which needs to look at the
revindex for a variety of objects (e.g., cat-file's
"%(objectsize:disk)" format).  Simultaneously, git-gc is
running, which is doing a `git repack -ad`. We might hit a
sequence like:

  1. We need the revidx for some packed object. We call
     find_pack_revindex() and end up in init_pack_revindex()
     to create the hash table for all packs we know about.

  2. We look up another object and can't find it, because
     the repack has removed the pack it's in. We re-scan the
     pack directory and find a new pack containing the
     object. It gets added to our packed_git list.

  3. We call find_pack_revindex() for the new object, which
     hits revindex_for_pack() for our new pack. It can't
     find the packed_git in the revindex hash, and dies.

You could also replace the `repack` above with a push or
fetch to create a new pack, though these are less likely
(you would have to somehow learn about the new objects to
look them up).

Prior to 1a6d8b9 (do not discard revindex when re-preparing
packfiles, 2014-01-15), this was safe, as we threw away the
revindex whenever we re-scanned the pack directory (and thus
re-created the revindex hash on the fly). However, we don't
want to simply revert that commit, as it was solving a
different race.

So we have a few options:

  - We can fix the race in 1a6d8b9 differently, by having
    the bitmap code look in the revindex hash instead of
    caching the pointer. But this would introduce a lot of
    extra hash lookups for common bitmap operations.

  - We could teach the revindex to dynamically add new packs
    to the hash table. This would perform the same, but
    would mean adding extra code to the revindex hash (which
    currently cannot be resized at all).

  - We can get rid of the hash table entirely. There is
    exactly one revindex per pack, so we can just store it
    in the packed_git struct. Since it's initialized lazily,
    it does not add to the startup cost.

    This is the best of both worlds: less code and fewer
    hash table lookups.  The original code likely avoided
    this in the name of encapsulation. But the packed_git
    and reverse_index code are fairly intimate already, so
    it's not much of a loss.

This patch implements the final option. It's a minimal
conversion that retains the pack_revindex struct. No callers
need to change, and we can do further cleanup in a follow-on
patch.
