fetch: verify we have everything we need before updating our ref
rev-list --verify-object
list-objects: pass callback data to show_objects()
The traverse_commit_list() API takes two callback functions, one to show
commit objects, and the other to show other kinds of objects. Even though
the former has a callback data parameter, so that the callback does not
have to rely on global state, the latter does not.
Give the show_objects() callback the same callback data parameter.

A request to fetch from a client over smart HTTP protocol is served in
multiple steps. In the first round, the server side shows the set of refs
it has and their values, and the client picks from them and sends "I want
to fetch the history leading to these commits".
When the server tries to respond to this second request, its refs may have
progressed by a push from elsewhere. By design, we do not allow fetching
objects that are not at the tip of an advertised ref, and the server
rejects such a request. The client needs to try again, which is not ideal
especially for a busy server.
Teach upload-pack (which is the workhorse driven by git-daemon and smart
http server interface) that it is OK for a smart-http client to ask for
commits that are not at the tip of any advertised ref, as long as they are
reachable from advertised refs.

Change upload-pack and receive-pack to use the namespace-prefixed refs
when working with the repository, and use the unprefixed refs when
talking to the client, maintaining the masquerade. This allows
clone, pull, fetch, and push to work with a suitably configured
GIT_NAMESPACE.
receive-pack advertises refs outside the current namespace as .have refs
(as it currently does for refs in alternates), so that the client can
use them to minimize data transfer but will otherwise ignore them.
With appropriate configuration, this also allows http-backend to expose
namespaces as multiple repositories with different paths. This only
requires setting GIT_NAMESPACE, which http-backend passes through to
upload-pack and receive-pack.

In a pthread-enabled version of upload-pack, there's a race condition
that can cause a deadlock on the fflush(NULL) we call from run-command.
What happens is this:
1. Upload-pack is informed we are doing a shallow clone.
2. We call start_async() to spawn a thread that will generate rev-list
results to feed to pack-objects. It gets a file descriptor to a
pipe which will eventually hook to pack-objects.
3. The rev-list thread uses fdopen to create a new output stream
around the fd we gave it, called pack_pipe.
4. The thread writes results to pack_pipe. Outside of our control,
libc is doing locking on the stream. We keep writing until the OS
pipe buffer is full, and then we block in write(), still holding
the lock.
5. The main thread now uses start_command to spawn pack-objects.
Before forking, it calls fflush(NULL) to flush every stdio output
buffer. It blocks trying to get the lock on pack_pipe.
And we have a deadlock. The thread will block until somebody starts
reading from the pipe. But nobody will read from the pipe until we
finish flushing to the pipe.
To fix this, we swap the start order: we start the
pack-objects reader first, and then the rev-list writer
after. Thus the problematic fflush(NULL) happens before we
even open the new file descriptor (and even if it didn't,
flushing should no longer block, as the reader at the end of
the pipe is now active).

This reverts 3e63b21 (upload-pack: Implement no-done capability,
2011-03-14). Together with 761ecf0 (fetch-pack: Implement no-done
capability, 2011-03-14) it seems to make the fetch-pack process out of
sync and makes it keep talking long after upload-pack stopped listening to
it, terminating the process with SIGPIPE.
If the client requests both multi_ack_detailed and no-done then
upload-pack is free to immediately send a PACK following its first
'ACK %s ready' message. The upload-pack response actually winds
up being:
ACK %s common
... (maybe more) ...
ACK %s ready
NAK
ACK %s
PACK.... the pack stream ....
For smart HTTP connections this saves one HTTP RPC, reducing
the overall latency for a trivial fetch. For git:// and ssh://
a no-done option slightly reduces latency by removing one
server->client->server round-trip at the end of the common
ancestor negotiation.

If a client is merely following the remote (and has not made any
new commits itself), all "have %s" lines sent by the client will be
common to the server. As all lines are common upload-pack never
calls ok_to_give_up() and does not compute if it has a good cut
point in the commit graph.
Without this computation the following client is going to send all
tagged commits, as these were determined to be COMMON_REF during the
initial advertisement, but the client does not parse their history
to transitively pass the COMMON flag and empty its queue of commits.
For git.git with 339 commit tags, it takes clients 11 rounds of
negotation to fully send all tagged commits and exhaust its queue
of things to send as common. This is pretty slow for a client that
has not done any local development activity.
Force computing ok_to_give_up() and send "ACK %s ready" at the end
of the current round if this round only contained common objects
and ok_to_give_up() was therefore not called. This may allow the
client to break early, avoiding transmission of the COMMON_REFs.

This shows a trace of all packets coming in or out of a given
program. This can help with debugging object negotiation or
other protocol issues.
To keep the code changes simple, we operate at the lowest
level, meaning we don't necessarily understand what's in the
packets. The one exception is a packet starting with "PACK",
which causes us to skip that packet and turn off tracing
(since the gigantic pack data will not be interesting to
read, at least not in the trace format).
We show both written and read packets. In the local case,
this may mean you will see packets twice (written by the
sender and read by the receiver). However, for cases where
the other end is remote, this allows you to see the full
conversation.
Packet tracing can be enabled with GIT_TRACE_PACKET=<foo>,
where <foo> takes the same arguments as GIT_TRACE.

This patch adds the possibility to supply a set of non-0 file
descriptors for async process communication instead of the
default-created pipe.
Additionally, we now support bi-directional communiction with the
async procedure, by giving the async function both read and write
file descriptors.
To retain compatiblity and similar "API feel" with start_command,
we require start_async callers to set .out = -1 to get a readable
file descriptor. If either of .in or .out is 0, we supply no file
descriptor to the async process.

In theory it is possible for sideband channel #2 to be delayed if
pack data is quick to come up for sideband channel #1. And because
data for channel #2 is read only 128 bytes at a time while pack data
is read 8192 bytes at a time, it is possible for many pack blocks to
be sent to the client before the progress message fifo is emptied,
making the situation even worse. This would result in totally garbled
progress display on the client's console as local progress gets mixed
with partial remote progress lines.
Let's prevent such situations by giving transmission priority to
progress messages over pack data at all times.

When --stateless-rpc is passed as a command line parameter to
upload-pack or receive-pack the programs now assume they may
perform only a single read-write cycle with stdin and stdout.
This fits with the HTTP POST request processing model where a
program may read the request, write a response, and must exit.
When --advertise-refs is passed as a command line parameter only
the initial ref advertisement is output, and the program exits
immediately. This fits with the HTTP GET request model, where
no request content is received but a response must be produced.
HTTP headers and/or environment are not processed here, but
instead are assumed to be handled by the program invoking

When multi_ack_detailed is enabled the ACK continue messages returned
by the remote upload-pack are broken out to describe the different
states within the peer. This permits the client to better understand
the server's in-memory state.
The fetch-pack/upload-pack protocol now looks like:
NAK
---------------------------------
Always sent in response to "done" if there was no common base
selected from the "have" lines (or no have lines were sent).
* no multi_ack or multi_ack_detailed:
Sent when the client has sent a pkt-line flush ("0000") and
the server has not yet found a common base object.
* either multi_ack or multi_ack_detailed:
Always sent in response to a pkt-line flush.
ACK %s
-----------------------------------
* no multi_ack or multi_ack_detailed:
Sent in response to "have" when the object exists on the remote
side and is therefore an object in common between the peers.
The argument is the SHA-1 of the common object.
* either multi_ack or multi_ack_detailed:
Sent in response to "done" if there are common objects.
The argument is the last SHA-1 determined to be common.
ACK %s continue
-----------------------------------
* multi_ack only:
Sent in response to "have".
The remote side wants the client to consider this object as
common, and immediately stop transmitting additional "have"
lines for objects that are reachable from it. The reason
the client should stop is not given, but is one of the two
cases below available under multi_ack_detailed.
ACK %s common
-----------------------------------
* multi_ack_detailed only:
Sent in response to "have". Both sides have this object.
Like with "ACK %s continue" above the client should stop
sending have lines reachable for objects from the argument.
ACK %s ready
-----------------------------------
* multi_ack_detailed only:
Sent in response to "have".
The client should stop transmitting objects which are reachable
from the argument, and send "done" soon to get the objects.
If the remote side has the specified object, it should
first send an "ACK %s common" message prior to sending
"ACK %s ready".
Clients may still submit additional "have" lines if there are
more side branches for the client to explore that might be added
to the common set and reduce the number of objects to transfer.

In 2d14d65 (Use a clearer style to issue commands to remote helpers,

- write_in_full(helper->in, "list\n", 5);
+
+ strbuf_addstr(&buf, "list\n");
+ write_in_full(helper->in, buf.buf, buf.len);
+ strbuf_reset(&buf);
IMHO, it would be better to define a new function,
static inline ssize_t write_str_in_full(int fd, const char *str)
{
return write_in_full(fd, str, strlen(str));
}
and then use it like this:
- strbuf_addstr(&buf, "list\n");
- write_in_full(helper->in, buf.buf, buf.len);
- strbuf_reset(&buf);
+ write_str_in_full(helper->in, "list\n");
Thus not requiring the added allocation, and still avoiding
the maintenance risk of literal string lengths.
These days, compilers are good enough that strlen("literal")
imposes no run-time cost.

perl -pi -e \
's/write_in_full\((.*?), (".*?"), \d+\)/write_str_in_full($1, $2)/'\

First of all, I can't find any reason why thin pack generation is
explicitly disabled when dealing with a shallow repository. The
possible delta base objects are collected from the edge commits which
are always obtained through history walking with the same shallow refs
as the client, Therefore the client is always going to have those base
objects available. So let's remove that restriction.
Then we can make shallow repository deepening much more efficient by
using the remote's unshallowed commits as edge commits to get preferred
base objects for thin pack generation. On git.git, this makes the data
transfer for the deepening of a shallow repository from depth 1 to depth 2
around 134 KB instead of 3.68 MB.

A request to clone the repository does not give any "have" but asks for
all the refs we offer with "want". When a request does not ask to clone
the repository fully, but asks to fetch some refs into an empty
repository, it will not give any "have" but its "want" won't ask for all
the refs we offer.
If we suppose (and I would say this is a rather big if) that it makes
sense to distinguish these two cases, a hook cannot reliably do this
alone. The hook can detect lack of "have" and bunch of "want", but there
is no direct way to tell if the other end asked for all refs we offered,
or merely most of them.
Between the time we talked with the other end and the time the hook got
called, we may have acquired more refs or lost some refs in the repository
by concurrent operations. Given that we plan to introduce selective
advertisement of refs with a protocol extension, it would become even more
difficult for hooks to guess between these two cases.
This adds "kind [clone|fetch]" to hook's input, as a stable interface to
allow the hooks to tell these cases apart.

In particular, pushing the "path_name()" call _into_ the show() function
would seem to allow
- more clarity into who "owns" the name (ie now when we free the name in
the show_object callback, it's because we generated it ourselves by
calling path_name())
- not calling path_name() at all, either because we don't care about the
name in the first place, or because we are actually happy walking the
linked list of "struct name_path *" and the last component.
Now, I didn't do that latter optimization, because it would require some
more coding, but especially looking at "builtin-pack-objects.c", we really
don't even want the whole pathname, we really would be better off with the
list of path components.
Why? We use that name for two things:
- add_preferred_base_object(), which actually _wants_ to traverse the
path, and now does it by looking for '/' characters!
- for 'name_hash()', which only cares about the last 16 characters of a
name, so again, generating the full name seems to be just unnecessary
work.
Anyway, so I didn't look any closer at those things, but it did convince
me that the "show_object()" calling convention was crazy, and we're
actually better off doing _less_ in list-objects.c, and giving people
access to the internal data structures so that they can decide whether
they want to generate a path-name or not.
This patch does that, and then for people who did use the name (even if
they might do something more clever in the future), it just does the
straightforward "name = path_name(path, component); .. free(name);" thing.

Here's a less trivial thing, and slightly more dubious one.
I was looking at that "struct object_array objects", and wondering why we
do that. I have honestly totally forgotten. Why not just call the "show()"
function as we encounter the objects? Rather than add the objects to the
object_array, and then at the very end going through the array and doing a
'show' on all, just do things more incrementally.
Now, there are possible downsides to this:
- the "buffer using object_array" _can_ in theory result in at least
better I-cache usage (two tight loops rather than one more spread out
one). I don't think this is a real issue, but in theory..
- this _does_ change the order of the objects printed. Instead of doing a
"process_tree(revs, commit->tree, &objects, NULL, "");" in the loop
over the commits (which puts all the root trees _first_ in the object
list, this patch just adds them to the list of pending objects, and
then we'll traverse them in that order (and thus show each root tree
object together with the objects we discover under it)
I _think_ the new ordering actually makes more sense, but the object
ordering is actually a subtle thing when it comes to packing
efficiency, so any change in order is going to have implications for
packing. Good or bad, I dunno.
- There may be some reason why we did it that odd way with the object
array, that I have simply forgotten.
Anyway, now that we don't buffer up the objects before showing them
that may actually result in lower memory usage during that whole
traverse_commit_list() phase.
This is seriously not very deeply tested. It makes sense to me, it seems
to pass all the tests, it looks ok, but...
Does anybody remember why we did that "object_array" thing? It used to be
an "object_list" a long long time ago, but got changed into the array due
to better memory usage patterns (those linked lists of obejcts are
horrible from a memory allocation standpoint). But I wonder why we didn't
do this back then. Maybe there's a reason for it.
Or maybe there _used_ to be a reason, and no longer is.
