Now that we've removed "git-add--interactive.perl" let's replace
mentions of it with "add-interactive.c". In the case of the "git add"

wasn't wrong, but using a dead file is slightly confusing.
The "borrowed" comment here likewise isn't wrong, but let's mention

Since 4aab5b46f4 (Make read-cache.c "the_index" free., 2007-04-01)
we've been undergoing a slow migration away from these macros, but
haven't made much progress since f8adbec9fe (cache.h: flip

Let's move forward a bit by changing the users of those macros that
are rare enough that we can convert them in one go, and then remove
the compatibility shim.
The only manual change to the C code here is to "cache.h", the rest is

Remove the dir_init() function and replace it with a DIR_INIT
macro. In many cases in the codebase we need to initialize things with
a function for good reasons, e.g. needing to call another function on
initialization. The "dir_init()" function was not one such case, and
could trivially be replaced with a more idiomatic macro initialization
pattern.
The only place where we made use of its use of memset() was in
dir_clear() itself, which resets the contents of an an existing struct
pointer. Let's use the new "memcpy() a 'blank' struct on the stack"
idiom to do that reset.

Introduce a readdir_skip_dot_and_dotdot() helper to make that a one-liner:
while ((d = readdir_skip_dot_and_dotdot(dir)) != NULL) {
...process d...
}
This helper particularly simplifies checks for empty directories.
Also use this helper in read_cached_dir() so that our statistics are
consistent across platforms. (In other words, read_cached_dir() should
have been using is_dot_or_dotdot() and skipping such entries, but did
not and left it to treat_path() to detect and mark such entries as
path_none.)

The variable `matches` used to hold the return of a `dir_path_match()`
call that was removed in 95c11ecc73 ("Fix error-prone fill_directory()
API; make it only return matches", 2020-04-01). Now `matches` will
always hold 0, which is the value it's initialized with; and the
condition `matches != MATCHED_EXACTLY` will always evaluate to true. So
let's remove this unnecessary variable.
Interestingly, it seems that `matches != MATCHED_EXACTLY` was already
unnecessary before 95c11ecc73. That's because `remove_directories` is
always set to 1 when we have pathspecs; So, in the condition
`!remove_directories && matches != MATCHED_EXACTLY`, we would either:
- have pathspecs (or have been given `-d`) and ignore `matches` because
`remove_directories` is 1; or
- not have pathspecs (nor `-d`) and end up just checking that
`0 != MATCHED_EXACTLY`, as `matches` would never get reassigned
after its zero initialization (because there is no pathspec to match).

The dir structure seemed to have a number of leaks and problems around
it. First I noticed that parent_hashmap and recursive_hashmap were
being leaked (though Peff noticed and submitted fixes before me). Then
I noticed in the previous commit that clear_directory() was only taking
responsibility for a subset of fields within dir_struct, despite the
fact that entries[] and ignored[] we allocated internally to dir.c.
That, of course, resulted in many callers either leaking or haphazardly
trying to free these arrays and their contents.
Digging further, I found that despite the pretty clear documentation
near the top of dir.h that folks were supposed to call clear_directory()
when the user no longer needed the dir_struct, there were four callers
that didn't bother doing that at all. However, two of them clearly
thought about leaks since they had an UNLEAK(dir) directive, which to me
suggests that the method to free the data was too unclear. I suspect
the non-obviousness of the API and its holes led folks to avoid it,
which then snowballed into further problems with the entries[],
ignored[], parent_hashmap, and recursive_hashmap problems.
Rename clear_directory() to dir_clear() to be more in line with other
data structures in git, and introduce a dir_init() to handle the
suggested memsetting of dir_struct to all zeroes. I hope that a name
like "dir_clear()" is more clear, and that the presence of dir_init()
will provide a hint to those looking at the code that they need to look
for either a dir_clear() or a dir_free() and lead them to find
dir_clear().

The calling convention for the dir API is supposed to end with a call to
clear_directory() to free up no longer needed memory. However,
clear_directory() didn't free dir->entries or dir->ignored. I believe
this was an oversight, but a number of callers noticed memory leaks and
started free'ing these. Unfortunately, they did so somewhat haphazardly
(sometimes freeing the entries in the arrays, and sometimes only
free'ing the arrays themselves). This suggests the callers weren't
trying to make sure any possible memory used might be free'd, but just
the memory they noticed their usecase definitely had allocated.
Fix this mess by moving all the duplicated free'ing logic into
clear_directory(). End by resetting dir to a pristine state so it could
be reused if desired.

Commit 6b1db43109 ("clean: teach clean -d to preserve ignored paths",
2017-05-23) added the following code block (among others) to git-clean:
if (remove_directories)
dir.flags |= DIR_SHOW_IGNORED_TOO | DIR_KEEP_UNTRACKED_CONTENTS;
The reason for these flags is well documented in the commit message, but
isn't obvious just from looking at the code. Add some explanations to
the code to make it clearer.
Further, it appears git-2.26 did not correctly handle this combination
of flags from git-clean. With both these flags and without
DIR_SHOW_IGNORED_TOO_MODE_MATCHING set, git is supposed to recurse into
all untracked AND ignored directories. git-2.26.0 clearly was not doing
that. I don't know the full reasons for that or whether git < 2.27.0
had additional unknown bugs because of that misbehavior, because I don't
feel it's worth digging into. As per the huge changes and craziness
documented in commit 8d92fb2927 ("dir: replace exponential algorithm
with a linear one", 2020-04-01), the old algorithm was a mess and was
thrown out. What I can say is that git-2.27.0 correctly recurses into
untracked AND ignored directories with that combination.
However, in clean's case we don't need to recurse into ignored
directories; that is just a waste of time. Thus, when git-2.27.0
started correctly handling those flags, we got a performance regression
report. Rather than relying on other bugs in fill_directory()'s former
logic to provide the behavior of skipping ignored directories, make use
of the DIR_SHOW_IGNORED_TOO_MODE_MATCHING value specifically added in
commit eec0f7f2b7 ("status: add option to show ignored files
differently", 2017-10-30) for this purpose.

dir.h documented quite clearly that DIR_SHOW_IGNORED and
DIR_SHOW_IGNORED_TOO are mutually exclusive, with a big comment to this
effect by the definition of both enum values. However, a command like
git clean -fx $DIR
would set both values for dir.flags. I _think_ it happened to work
because:
* As dir.h points out, DIR_KEEP_UNTRACKED_CONTENTS only takes effect
if DIR_SHOW_IGNORED_TOO is set.
* As coded, I believe DIR_SHOW_IGNORED would just happen to take
precedence over DIR_SHOW_IGNORED_TOO in the code as currently
constructed.
Which is a long way of saying "we just got lucky".
Fix clean.c to avoid setting these mutually exclusive values at the same
time, and add a check to dir.c that will throw a BUG() to prevent anyone
else from making this mistake.

In the codebase, there are many options which use OPTION_CALLBACK in a
plain ol' struct definition. However, we have the OPT_CALLBACK and
OPT_CALLBACK_F macros which are meant to abstract these plain struct
definitions away. These macros are useful as they semantically signal to
developers that these are just normal callback option with nothing fancy
happening.
Replace plain struct definitions of OPTION_CALLBACK with OPT_CALLBACK or
OPT_CALLBACK_F where applicable. The heavy lifting was done using the
following (disgusting) shell script:
#!/bin/sh
do_replacement () {
tr '\n' '\r' |
sed -e 's/{\s*OPTION_CALLBACK,\s*\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\s*0,\(\s*[^[:space:]}]*\)\s*}/OPT_CALLBACK(\1,\2,\3,\4,\5,\6)/g' |
sed -e 's/{\s*OPTION_CALLBACK,\s*\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\(\s*[^[:space:]}]*\)\s*}/OPT_CALLBACK_F(\1,\2,\3,\4,\5,\6,\7)/g' |
tr '\r' '\n'
}
for f in $(git ls-files \*.c)
do
do_replacement <"$f" >"$f.tmp"
mv "$f.tmp" "$f"
done
The result was manually inspected and then reformatted to match the
style of the surrounding code. Finally, using
`git grep OPTION_CALLBACK \*.c`, leftover results which were not handled
by the script were manually transformed.

Traditionally, the expected calling convention for the dir.c API was:
fill_directory(&dir, ..., pathspec)
foreach entry in dir->entries:
if (dir_path_match(entry, pathspec))
process_or_display(entry)
This may have made sense once upon a time, because the fill_directory() call
could use cheap checks to avoid doing full pathspec matching, and an external
caller may have wanted to do other post-processing of the results anyway.
However:
* this structure makes it easy for users of the API to get it wrong
* this structure actually makes it harder to understand
fill_directory() and the functions it uses internally. It has
tripped me up several times while trying to fix bugs and
restructure things.
* relying on post-filtering was already found to produce wrong
results; pathspec matching had to be added internally for multiple
cases in order to get the right results (see commits 404ebceda0
(dir: also check directories for matching pathspecs, 2019-09-17)
and 89a1f4aaf7 (dir: if our pathspec might match files under a
dir, recurse into it, 2019-09-17))
* it's bad for performance: fill_directory() already has to do lots
of checks and knows the subset of cases where it still needs to do
more checks. Forcing external callers to do full pathspec
matching means they must re-check _every_ path.
So, add the pathspec matching within the fill_directory() internals, and
remove it from external callers.

cmd_clean() had the following code structure:

strbuf_addstr(&abs_path, prefix);
strbuf_addstr(&abs_path, item->string);
PROCESS(&abs_path);
strbuf_reset(&abs_path);
}
where I've elided a bunch of unnecessary details and PROCESS(&abs_path)
represents a big chunk of code rather than an actual function call. One
piece of PROCESS was:
if (lstat(abs_path.buf, &st))
continue;
which would cause the strbuf_reset() to be missed -- meaning that the
next path to be handled would have two paths concatenated. This path
used to use die_errno() instead of continue prior to commit 396049e5fb
("git-clean: refactor git-clean into two phases", 2013-06-25), but my
understanding of how correct_untracked_entries() works is that it will
prevent both dir/ and dir/file from being in the list to clean so this
should be dead code and the die_errno() should be safe. But I hesitate
to remove it since I am not certain.
However, we can fix both this bug and possible similar future bugs by
simply moving the strbuf_reset(&abs_path) to the beginning of the loop.
It'll result in N calls to strbuf_reset() instead of N-1, but that's a
small price to pay to avoid sneaky bugs like this.

Users expect files in a nested git repository to be left alone unless
sufficiently forced (with two -f's). Unfortunately, in certain
circumstances, git would delete both tracked (and possibly dirty) files
and untracked files within a nested repository. To explain how this
happens, let's contrast a couple cases. First, take the following
example setup (which assumes we are already within a git repo):
git init nested
cd nested
>tracked
git add tracked
git commit -m init
>untracked
cd ..
In this setup, everything works as expected; running 'git clean -fd'
will result in fill_directory() returning the following paths:
nested/
nested/tracked
nested/untracked
and then correct_untracked_entries() would notice this can be compressed
to
nested/
and then since "nested/" is a directory, we would call
remove_dirs("nested/", ...), which would
check is_nonbare_repository_dir() and then decide to skip it.
However, if someone also creates an ignored file:
>nested/ignored
then running 'git clean -fd' would result in fill_directory() returning
the same paths:
nested/
nested/tracked
nested/untracked
but correct_untracked_entries() will notice that we had ignored entries
under nested/ and thus simplify this list to
nested/tracked
nested/untracked
Since these are not directories, we do not call remove_dirs() which was
the only place that had the is_nonbare_repository_dir() safety check --
resulting in us deleting both the untracked file and the tracked (and
possibly dirty) file.
One possible fix for this issue would be walking the parent directories
of each path and checking if they represent nonbare repositories, but
that would be wasteful. Even if we added caching of some sort, it's
still a waste because we should have been able to check that "nested/"
represented a nonbare repository before even descending into it in the
first place. Add a DIR_SKIP_NESTED_GIT flag to dir_struct.flags and use
it to prevent fill_directory() and friends from descending into nested
git repos.
With this change, we also modify two regression tests added in commit
91479b9c72 ("t7300: add tests to document behavior of clean and nested
git", 2015-06-15). That commit, nor its series, nor the six previous
iterations of that series on the mailing list discussed why those tests
coded the expectation they did. In fact, it appears their purpose was
simply to test _existing_ behavior to make sure that the performance
changes didn't change the behavior. However, these two tests directly
contradicted the manpage's claims that two -f's were required to delete
files/directories under a nested git repository. While one could argue
that the user gave an explicit path which matched files/directories that
were within a nested repository, there's a slippery slope that becomes
very difficult for users to understand once you go down that route (e.g.
what if they specified "git clean -f -d '*.c'"?) It would also be hard
to explain what the exact behavior was; avoid such problems by making it
really simple.
Also, clean up some grammar errors describing this functionality in the
git-clean manpage.
Finally, there are still a couple bugs with -ffd not cleaning out enough
(e.g. missing the nested .git) and with -ffdX possibly cleaning out the
wrong files (paying attention to outer .gitignore instead of inner).
This patch does not address these cases at all (and does not change the
behavior relative to those flags), it only fixes the handling when given
a single -f. See
https://public-inbox.org/git/20190905212043.GC32087@szeder.dev/ for more
discussion of the -ffd[X?] bugs.

The -d flag pre-dated git-clean's ability to have paths specified. As
such, the default for git-clean was to only remove untracked files in
the current directory, and -d existed to allow it to recurse into
subdirectories.
The interaction of paths and the -d option appears to not have been
carefully considered, as evidenced by numerous bugs and a dearth of
tests covering such pairings in the testsuite. The definition turns out
to be important, so let's look at some of the various ways one could
interpret the -d option:
A) Without -d, only look in subdirectories which contain tracked
files under them; with -d, also look in subdirectories which
are untracked for files to clean.
B) Without specified paths from the user for us to delete, we need to
have some kind of default, so...without -d, only look in
subdirectories which contain tracked files under them; with -d,
also look in subdirectories which are untracked for files to clean.
The important distinction here is that choice B says that the presence
or absence of '-d' is irrelevant if paths are specified. The logic
behind option B is that if a user explicitly asked us to clean a
specified pathspec, then we should clean anything that matches that
pathspec. Some examples may clarify. Should
git clean -f untracked_dir/file
remove untracked_dir/file or not? It seems crazy not to, but a strict
reading of option A says it shouldn't be removed. How about
git clean -f untracked_dir/file1 tracked_dir/file2
or
git clean -f untracked_dir_1/file1 untracked_dir_2/file2
? Should it remove either or both of these files? Should it require
multiple runs to remove both the files listed? (If this sounds like a
crazy question to even ask, see the commit message of "t7300: Add some
testcases showing failure to clean specified pathspecs" added earlier in
this patch series.) What if -ffd were used instead of -f -- should that
allow these to be removed? Should it take multiple invocations with
-ffd? What if a glob (such as '*tracked*') were used instead of
spelling out the directory names? What if the filenames involved globs,
such as
git clean -f '*.o'
or
git clean -f '*/*.o'
?
The current documentation actually suggests a definition that is
slightly different than choice A, and the implementation prior to this
series provided something radically different than either choices A or
B. (The implementation, though, was clearly just buggy). There may be
other choices as well. However, for almost any given choice of
definition for -d that I can think of, some of the examples above will
appear buggy to the user. The only case that doesn't have negative
surprises is choice B: treat a user-specified path as a request to clean
all untracked files which match that path specification, including
recursing into any untracked directories.
Change the documentation and basic implementation to use this
definition.
There were two regression tests that indirectly depended on the current
implementation, but neither was about subdirectory handling. These two
tests were introduced in commit 5b7570cfb4 ("git-clean: add tests for
relative path", 2008-03-07) which was solely created to add coverage for
the changes in commit fb328947c8e ("git-clean: correct printing relative
path", 2008-03-07). Both tests specified a directory that happened to
have an untracked subdirectory, but both were only checking that the
resulting printout of a file that was removed was shown with a relative
path. Update these tests appropriately.

The first consumer of pattern-matching filenames was the
.gitignore feature. In that context, storing a list of patterns
as a 'struct exclude_list' makes sense. However, the
sparse-checkout feature then adopted these structures and methods,
but with the opposite meaning: these patterns match the files
that should be included!
It would be clearer to rename this entire library as a "pattern
matching" library, and the callers apply exclusion/inclusion
logic accordingly based on their needs.
This commit renames several methods defined in dir.h to make
more sense with the renamed 'struct exclude_list' to 'struct
pattern_list' and 'struct exclude' to 'struct path_pattern':
* last_exclude_matching() -> last_matching_pattern()
* parse_exclude() -> parse_path_pattern()
In addition, the word 'exclude' was replaced with 'pattern'
in the methods below:
* add_exclude_list()
* add_excludes_from_file_to_list()
* add_excludes_from_file()
* add_excludes_from_blob_to_list()
* add_exclude()
* clear_exclude_list()
A few methods with the word "exclude" remain. These will
be handled seperately. In particular, the method
"is_excluded()" is concretely about the .gitignore file
relative to a specific directory. This is the important
boundary between library and consumer: is_excluded() cares
about .gitignore, but is_excluded() calls
last_matching_pattern() to make that decision.

When `lstat()` failed, `git clean` would abort without an error
message, leaving the user quite puzzled.
In particular on Windows, where the default maximum path length is
quite small (yet there are ways to circumvent that limit in many
cases), it is very important that users be given an indication why
their command failed because of too long paths when it did.
This test case makes sure that a warning is issued that would have
helped the user who reported this issue:
https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/521
Note that we temporarily set `core.longpaths = false` in the regression
test; this ensures forward-compatibility with the `core.longpaths`
feature that has not yet been upstreamed from Git for Windows.

When we define a parse-options callback, the flags we put in the option
struct must match what the callback expects. For example, a callback
which does not handle the "unset" parameter should only be used with
PARSE_OPT_NONEG. But since the callback and the option struct are not
defined next to each other, it's easy to get this wrong (as earlier
patches in this series show).
Fortunately, the compiler can help us here: compiling with
-Wunused-parameters can show us which callbacks ignore their "unset"
parameters (and likewise, ones that ignore "arg" expect to be triggered
with PARSE_OPT_NOARG).
But after we've inspected a callback and determined that all of its
callers use the right flags, what do we do next? We'd like to silence
the compiler warning, but do so in a way that will catch any wrong calls
in the future.
We can do that by actually checking those variables and asserting that
they match our expectations. Because this is such a common pattern,
we'll introduce some helper macros. The resulting messages aren't
as descriptive as we could make them, but the file/line information from
BUG() is enough to identify the problem (and anyway, the point is that
these should never be seen).
Each of the annotated callbacks in this patch triggers
-Wunused-parameters, and was manually inspected to make sure all callers
use the correct options (so none of these BUGs should be triggerable).

Make the match_patchspec API and friends take an index_state instead
of assuming the_index in dir.c. All external call sites are converted
blindly to keep the patch simple and retain current behavior.

Sometimes it helps to list all available config vars so the user can
search for something they want. The config man page can also be used
but it's harder to search if you want to focus on the variable name,
for example.
This is not the best way to collect the available config since it's
not precise. Ideally we should have a centralized list of config in C
code (pretty much like 'struct option'), but that's a lot more work.
This will do for now.

Instead of hard coding the name-to-id mapping in C code, keep it in an
array and use a common function to do the parsing. This reduces code
and also allows us to list all possible color slots later.
This starts using C99 designated initializers more for convenience
(the first designated initializers have been introduced in builtin/clean.c
for some time without complaints)

This is the "theoretically more correct" approach of simply
stepping back to the state before plumbing commands started paying
attention to "color.ui" configuration variable.
Let's run with this one.
* jk/ref-filter-colors-fix:
tag: respect color.ui config
Revert "color: check color.ui in git_default_config()"
Revert "t6006: drop "always" color config tests"
Revert "color: make "always" the same as "auto" in config"
This reverts commit 136c8c8b8f.
That commit was trying to address a bug caused by 4c7f1819b3
(make color.ui default to 'auto', 2013-06-10), in which
plumbing like diff-tree defaulted to "auto" color, but did
not respect a "color.ui" directive to disable it.
But it also meant that we started respecting "color.ui" set
to "always". This was a known problem, but 4c7f1819b3 argued
that nobody ought to be doing that. However, that turned out
to be wrong, and we got a number of bug reports related to
"add -p" regressing in v2.14.2.
Let's revert 136c8c8b8, fixing the regression to "add -p".
This leaves the problem from 4c7f1819b3 unfixed, but:
1. It's a pretty obscure problem in the first place. I
only noticed it while working on the color code, and we
haven't got a single bug report or complaint about it.
2. We can make a more moderate fix on top by respecting
"never" but not "always" for plumbing commands. This
is just the minimal fix to go back to the working state
we had before v2.14.2.
Note that this isn't a pure revert. We now have a test in
t3701 which shows off the "add -p" regression. This can be
flipped to success.

Start using selected c99 constructs in small, stable and
essentialpart of the system to catch people who care about
older compilers that do not grok them.
* jk/c99:
clean.c: use designated initializer
strbuf: use designated initializers in STRBUF_INIT
This is another test balloon to see if we get complaints from people
whose compilers do not support designated initializer for arrays.
The use of the feature is not all that interesting for cases like
the one this patch touches, where the initialized elements of the
array is dense, but it would be nice if we can use the feature to
initialize an array that has elements initialized to interesting
values only sparsely.

Back in prehistoric times, our decision on whether or not to
show color by default relied on using a config callback that
either did or didn't load color config like color.diff.
When we introduced color.ui, we put it in the same boat:
commands had to manually respect it by using git_color_config()
or its git_color_default_config() convenience wrapper.
But in 4c7f1819b (make color.ui default to 'auto',
2013-06-10), that changed. Since then, we default color.ui
to auto in all programs, meaning that even plumbing commands
like "git diff-tree --pretty" might colorize the output.
Nobody seems to have complained in the intervening years,
presumably because the "is stdout a tty" check does a good
job of catching the right cases.
But that leaves an interesting curiosity: color.ui defaults
to auto even in plumbing, but you can't actually _disable_
the color via config. So if you really hate color and set
"color.ui" to false, diff-tree will still show color (but
porcelain like git-diff won't). Nobody noticed that either,
probably because very few people disable color.
One could argue that the plumbing should _always_ disable
color unless an explicit --color option is given on the
command line. But in practice, this creates a lot of
complications for scripts which do want plumbing to show
user-visible output. They can't just pass "--color" blindly;
they need to check the user's config and decide what to
send.
Given that nobody has complained about the current behavior,
let's assume it's a good path, and follow it to its
conclusion: supporting color.ui everywhere.
Note that you can create havoc by setting color.ui=always in
your config, but that's more or less already the case. We
could disallow it entirely, but it is handy for one-offs
like:
git -c color.ui=always foo >not-a-tty
when "foo" does not take a --color option itself.
