cherry-pick: picking a tag that resolves to a commit is OK
Earlier, 21246dbb9e (cherry-pick: make sure all input objects are

as an error, but broke a more important use case to cherry-pick a

Test 2 of t5004 checks if a supposedly empty tar archive really
contains no files. 24676f02 (t5004: fix issue with empty archive test
and bsdtar) removed our commit hash to make it work with bsdtar, but
the test still fails on NetBSD and OpenBSD, which use their own tar
that considers a tar file containing only NULs as broken.
Here's what the different archivers do when asked to create a tar
file without entries:
$ uname -v
NetBSD 6.0.1 (GENERIC)
$ gtar --version | head -1
tar (GNU tar) 1.26
$ bsdtar --version
bsdtar 2.8.4 - libarchive 2.8.4
$ : >zero.tar
$ perl -e 'print "\0" x 10240' >tenk.tar
$ sha1 zero.tar tenk.tar
SHA1 (zero.tar) = da39a3ee5e6b4b0d3255bfef95601890afd80709
SHA1 (tenk.tar) = 34e163be8e43c5631d8b92e9c43ab0bf0fa62b9c
$ : | tar cf - -T - | sha1
da39a3ee5e6b4b0d3255bfef95601890afd80709

So NetBSD's native tar creates an empty file, while GNU tar and bsdtar
both give us 10KB of NULs -- just like git archive with an empty tree.
Now let's see how the archivers handle these two kinds of empty tar
files:
$ tar tf zero.tar; echo $?
tar: Unexpected EOF on archive file
1
$ gtar tf zero.tar; echo $?
gtar: This does not look like a tar archive
gtar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors
2
$ bsdtar tf zero.tar; echo $?
0
$ tar tf tenk.tar; echo $?
tar: Cannot identify format. Searching...
tar: End of archive volume 1 reached
tar: Sorry, unable to determine archive format.
1
$ gtar tf tenk.tar; echo $?
0
$ bsdtar tf tenk.tar; echo $?
0
NetBSD's tar complains about both, bsdtar happily accepts any of them
and GNU tar doesn't like zero-length archive files. So the safest
course of action is to stay with our block-of-NULs format which is
compatible with GNU tar and bsdtar, as we can't make NetBSD's native
tar happy anyway.
We can simplify our test, however, by taking tar out of the picture.
Instead of extracting the archive and checking for the non-presence of
files, check if the file has a size of 10KB and contains only NULs.
This makes t5004 pass on NetBSD and OpenBSD.

Add a test to verify the emptiness of an archive by extracting its
contents. Don't run this test if the version of tar doesn't support
archives containing only a comment header, though.
The existing check 'tar archive of empty tree is empty' used to work
like that (minus the tar capability check) but was changed to depend
on the exact representation of empty tar files created by git archive
instead of on the behaviour of tar in order to avoid issues with
different tar versions.
The different approaches test different things: The existing one is
for empty trees, for which we know the exact expected output and thus
we can simply check it without extracting; the new one is for commits
with empty trees, whose archives include stamps and so the more
"natural" check by extraction is a better fit because it focuses on
the interesting aspect, namely the absence of any archive entries.

git-merge-tree causes a null pointer dereference when a directory

When this happens, we want to handle the entry as a directory and not
attempt to mark it as a file merge. Do this by setting the entries bit
in the directory mask when the entry is missing or when it is a
directory, only performing the file comparison when we know that a file

The lookup_object function is backed by a hash table of all
objects we have seen in the program. We manage collisions
with a linear walk over the colliding entries, checking each
with hashcmp(). The main cost of lookup is in these
hashcmp() calls; finding our item in the first slot is
cheaper than finding it in the second slot, which is cheaper
than the third, and so on.
If we assume that there is some locality to the object
lookups (e.g., if X and Y collide, and we have just looked
up X, the next lookup is more likely to be for X than for
Y), then we can improve our average lookup speed by checking
X before Y.
This patch does so by swapping a found item to the front of
the collision chain. The p0001 perf test reveals that this
does indeed exploit locality in the case of "rev-list --all
--objects":
Test origin this tree
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
0001.1: rev-list --all 0.40(0.38+0.02) 0.40(0.36+0.03) +0.0%
0001.2: rev-list --all --objects 2.24(2.17+0.05) 1.86(1.79+0.05) -17.0%
This is not surprising, as the full object traversal will
hit the same tree entries over and over (e.g., for every
commit that doesn't change "Documentation/", we will have to
look up the same sha1 just to find out that we already
processed it).
The reason why this technique works (and does not violate
any properties of the hash table) is subtle and bears some
explanation. Let's imagine we get a lookup for sha1 `X`, and
it hashes to bucket `i` in our table. That stretch of the
table may look like:
index | i-1 | i | i+1 | i+2 |
-----------------------------------
entry ... | A | B | C | X | ...
-----------------------------------
We start our probe at i, see that B does not match, nor does
C, and finally find X. There may be multiple C's in the
middle, but we know that there are no empty slots (or else
we would not find X at all).
We do not know the original index of B; it may be `i`, or it
may be less than i (e.g., if it were `i-1`, it would collide
with A and spill over into the `i` bucket). So it is
acceptable for us to move it to the right of a contiguous
stretch of entries (because we will find it from a linear
walk starting anywhere at `i` or before), but never to the
left (if we moved it to `i-1`, we would miss it when
starting our walk at `i`).
We do know the original index of X; it is `i`, so it is safe
to place it anywhere in the contiguous stretch between `i`
and where we found it (`i+2` in the this case).
This patch does a pure swap; after finding X in the
situation above, we would end with:
index | i-1 | i | i+1 | i+2 |
-----------------------------------
entry ... | A | X | C | B | ...
-----------------------------------
We could instead bump X into the `i` slot, and then shift
the whole contiguous chain down by one, resulting in:
index | i-1 | i | i+1 | i+2 |
-----------------------------------
entry ... | A | X | B | C | ...
-----------------------------------
That puts our chain in true most-recently-used order.
However, experiments show that it is not any faster (and in
fact, is slightly slower due to the extra manipulation).

Change pack_one_ref() to call peel_entry() rather than using its own
code for peeling references. Aside from sharing code, this lets it
take advantage of the optimization introduced by 6c4a060d7d.
Please note that we *could* use any peeled values that happen to
already be stored in the ref_entries, which would avoid some object
lookups for references that were already packed. But doing so would
also propagate any peeling errors across runs of "git pack-refs" and
give no way to recover from such errors. And "git pack-refs" isn't
run often enough that the performance cost is a problem. So instead,
add a new option to peel_entry() to force the entry to be re-peeled,
and call it with that option set.
