6d87386532 clone,fetch: explain the shallow-clone option a little more clearly
"deepen by excluding" does not make sense because excluding a revision
does not deepen a repository; it makes the repository more shallow.

f9db0c055c Merge branch 'jc/abbrev-auto'
"git push" and "git fetch" reports from what old object to what new
object each ref was updated, using abbreviated refnames, and they
attempt to align the columns for this and other pieces of
information.  The way these codepaths compute how many display
columns to allocate for the object names portion of this output has
been updated to match the recent "auto scale the default
abbreviation length" change.

11fd66de9b transport: allow summary-width to be computed dynamically
Now we have identified three callchains that have a set of refs that
they want to show their <old, new> object names in an aligned output,
we can replace their reference to the constant TRANSPORT_SUMMARY_WIDTH
with a helper function call to transport_summary_width() that takes
the set of ref as a parameter.  This step does not yet iterate over
the refs and compute, which is left as an exercise to the readers.

901f3d403e fetch: pass summary_width down the callchain
The leaf function on the "fetch" side that uses TRANSPORT_SUMMARY_WIDTH
constant is builtin/fetch.c::format_display() and it has two distinct
callchains.  The one that reports the primary result of fetch originates
at store_updated_refs(); the other one that reports the pruning of
the remote-tracking refs originates at prune_refs().

Teach these two places to pass summary_width down the callchain,
just like we did for the "push" side in the previous commit.

5827a03545 fetch: use "quick" has_sha1_file for tag following
When we auto-follow tags in a fetch, we look at all of the
tags advertised by the remote and fetch ones where we don't
already have the tag, but we do have the object it peels to.
This involves a lot of calls to has_sha1_file(), some of
which we can reasonably expect to fail. Since 45e8a74
(has_sha1_file: re-check pack directory before giving up,
2013-08-30), this may cause many calls to
reprepare_packed_git(), which is potentially expensive.

This has gone unnoticed for several years because it
requires a fairly unique setup to matter:

  1. You need to have a lot of packs on the client side to
     make reprepare_packed_git() expensive (the most
     expensive part is finding duplicates in an unsorted
     list, which is currently quadratic).

  2. You need a large number of tag refs on the server side
     that are candidates for auto-following (i.e., that the
     client doesn't have). Each one triggers a re-read of
     the pack directory.

  3. Under normal circumstances, the client would
     auto-follow those tags and after one large fetch, (2)
     would no longer be true. But if those tags point to
     history which is disconnected from what the client
     otherwise fetches, then it will never auto-follow, and
     those candidates will impact it on every fetch.

So when all three are true, each fetch pays an extra
O(nr_tags * nr_packs^2) cost, mostly in string comparisons
on the pack names. This was exacerbated by 47bf4b0
(prepare_packed_git_one: refactor duplicate-pack check,
2014-06-30) which uses a slightly more expensive string
check, under the assumption that the duplicate check doesn't
happen very often (and it shouldn't; the real problem here
is how often we are calling reprepare_packed_git()).

This patch teaches fetch to use HAS_SHA1_QUICK to sacrifice
accuracy for speed, in cases where we might be racy with a
simultaneous repack. This is similar to the fix in 0eeb077
(index-pack: avoid excessive re-reading of pack directory,
2015-06-09). As with that case, it's OK for has_sha1_file()
occasionally say "no I don't have it" when we do, because
the worst case is not a corruption, but simply that we may
fail to auto-follow a tag that points to it.

Here are results from the included perf script, which sets
up a situation similar to the one described above:

Test            HEAD^               HEAD
----------------------------------------------------------
5550.4: fetch   11.21(10.42+0.78)   0.08(0.04+0.02) -99.3%

65acfeacaa abbrev: add FALLBACK_DEFAULT_ABBREV to prepare for auto sizing
We'll be introducing a new way to decide the default abbreviation
length by initialising DEFAULT_ABBREV to -1 to signal the first call
to "find unique abbreviation" codepath to compute a reasonable value
based on the number of objects we have to avoid collisions.

We have long relied on DEFAULT_ABBREV being a positive concrete
value that is used as the abbreviation length when no extra
configuration or command line option has overridden it.  Some
codepaths wants to use such a positive concrete default value
even before making their first request to actually trigger the
computation for the auto sized default.

Introduce FALLBACK_DEFAULT_ABBREV and use it to the code that
attempts to align the report from "git fetch".  For now, this
macro is also used to initialize the default_abbrev variable,
but the auto-sizing code will use -1 and then use the value of
FALLBACK_DEFAULT_ABBREV as the starting point of auto-sizing.

7043c7071c check_everything_connected: use a struct with named options
The number of variants of check_everything_connected has
grown over the years, so that the "real" function takes
several possibly-zero, possibly-NULL arguments. We hid the
complexity behind some wrapper functions, but this doesn't
scale well when we want to add new options.

If we add more wrapper variants to handle the new options,
then we can get a combinatorial explosion when those options
might be used together (right now nobody wants to use both
"shallow" and "transport" together, so we get by with just a
few wrappers).

If instead we add new parameters to each function, each of
which can have a default value, then callers who want the
defaults end up with confusing invocations like:

  check_everything_connected(fn, 0, data, -1, 0, NULL);

where it is unclear which parameter is which (and every
caller needs updated when we add new options).

Instead, let's add a struct to hold all of the optional
parameters. This is a little more verbose for the callers
(who have to declare the struct and fill it in), but it
makes their code much easier to follow, because every option
is named as it is set (and unused options do not have to be
mentioned at all).

Note that we could also stick the iteration function and its
callback data into the option struct, too. But since those
are required for each call, by avoiding doing so, we can let
very simple callers just pass "NULL" for the options and not
worry about the struct at all.

While we're touching each site, let's also rename the
function to check_connected(). The existing name was quite
long, and not all of the wrappers even used the full name.

bc437d1020 fetch: reduce duplicate in ref update status lines with placeholder
In the "remote -> local" line, if either ref is a substring of the
other, the common part in the other string is replaced with "*". For
example

    abc                -> origin/abc
    refs/pull/123/head -> pull/123

become

    abc         -> origin/*
    refs/*/head -> pull/123

Activated with fetch.output=compact.

For the record, this output is not perfect. A single giant ref can
push all refs very far to the right and likely be wrapped around. We
may have a few options:

 - exclude these long lines smarter

 - break the line after "->", exclude it from column width calculation

 - implement a new format, { -> origin/}foo, which makes the problem
   go away at the cost of a bit harder to read

 - reverse all the arrows so we have "* <- looong-ref", again still
   hard to read.

d0b39a03cd fetch: refactor ref update status formatting code
This makes it easier to change the formatting later. And it makes sure
translators cannot mess up format specifiers and break Git.

There are a couple call sites where the length of the second column is
TRANSPORT_SUMMARY_WIDTH instead of calculated by TRANSPORT_SUMMARY(),
which is enforced now. The result should be the same because these call
sites do not contain characters outside ASCII range.

The two strbuf_addf() calls instead of one is mostly to reduce
diff-noise in a future patch where "ref -> ref" is reformatted
differently.

cccf74e2da fetch, upload-pack: --deepen=N extends shallow boundary by N commits
In git-fetch, --depth argument is always relative with the latest
remote refs. This makes it a bit difficult to cover this use case,
where the user wants to make the shallow history, say 3 levels
deeper. It would work if remote refs have not moved yet, but nobody
can guarantee that, especially when that use case is performed a
couple months after the last clone or "git fetch --depth". Also,
modifying shallow boundary using --depth does not work well with
clones created by --since or --not.

This patch fixes that. A new argument --deepen=<N> will add <N> more (*)
parent commits to the current history regardless of where remote refs
are.

Have/Want negotiation is still respected. So if remote refs move, the
server will send two chunks: one between "have" and "want" and another
to extend shallow history. In theory, the client could send no "want"s
in order to get the second chunk only. But the protocol does not allow
that. Either you send no want lines, which means ls-remote; or you
have to send at least one want line that carries deep-relative to the
server..

The main work was done by Dongcan Jiang. I fixed it up here and there.
And of course all the bugs belong to me.

(*) We could even support --deepen=<N> where <N> is negative. In that
case we can cut some history from the shallow clone. This operation
(and --depth=<shorter depth>) does not require interaction with remote
side (and more complicated to implement as a result).

The remote_is_configured() function allows checking whether a remote

Make use of the origin member of struct remote instead, which indicates
where the remote comes from.  It will be set to some value if the remote
is configured in any file in the repository, but is initialized to 0 if
the remote is only created in make_remote().

which do not support these switches; they should report the
appropriate error in that case.

rsync support is untouched for now since it is deprecated and
scheduled to be removed.

0898c96281 fetch: release pack files before garbage-collecting
Before auto-gc'ing, we need to make sure that the pack files are
released in case they need to be repacked and garbage-collected.

This fixes https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/500

ea56518dfe Handle more file writes correctly in shared repos
In shared repositories, we have to be careful when writing files whose
permissions do not allow users other than the owner to write them.

In particular, we force the marks file of fast-export and the FETCH_HEAD
when fetching to be rewritten from scratch.

This commit does not touch other calls to fopen() that want to
write files:

 - commands that write to working tree files (core.sharedRepository
   does not affect permission bits of working tree files),
   e.g. .rej file created by "apply --reject", result of applying a
   previous conflict resolution by "rerere", "git merge-file".

 - git am, when splitting mails (git-am correctly cleans up its directory
   after finishing, so there is no need to share those files between users)

 - git submodule clone, when writing the .git file, because the file
   will not be overwritten

 - git_terminal_prompt() in compat/terminal.c, because it is not writing to
   a file at all

 - git diff --output, because the output file is clearly not intended to be
   shared between the users of the current repository

 - git fast-import, when writing a crash report, because the reports' file
   names are unique due to an embedded process ID

 - mailinfo() in mailinfo.c, because the output is clearly not intended to
   be shared between the users of the current repository

 - check_or_regenerate_marks() in remote-testsvn.c, because this is only
   used for Git's internal testing

 - git fsck, when writing lost&found blobs (this should probably be
   changed, but left as a low-hanging fruit for future contributors).

Note that this patch does not touch callers of write_file() and
write_file_gently(), which would benefit from the same scrutiny as
to usage in shared repositories.  Most notable users are branch,
daemon, submodule & worktree, and a worrisome call in transport.c
when updating one ref (which ignores the shared flag).

Convert most instances where the sha1 member of struct object is
dereferenced to use get_object_hash.  Most instances that are passed to
functions that have versions taking struct object_id, such as
get_sha1_hex/get_oid_hex, or instances that can be trivially converted
to use struct object_id instead, are not converted.

bd22d4ffbc transport: use strbufs for status table "quickref" strings
We generate range strings like "1234abcd...5678efab" for use
in the the fetch and push status tables. We use fixed-size
buffers along with strcat to do so. These aren't buggy, as
our manual size computation is correct, but there's nothing
checking that this is so.  Let's switch them to strbufs
instead, which are obviously correct, and make it easier to
audit the code base for problematic calls to strcat().

2805bb5970 fetch: replace static buffer with xstrfmt
We parse the INFINITE_DEPTH constant into a static,
fixed-size buffer using sprintf. This buffer is sufficiently
large for the current constant, but it's a suspicious
pattern, as the constant is defined far away, and it's not
immediately obvious that 12 bytes are large enough to hold
it.

We can just use xstrfmt here, which gets rid of any question
of the buffer size. It also removes any concerns with object
lifetime, which means we do not have to wonder why this
buffer deep within a conditional is marked "static" (we
never free our newly allocated result, of course, but that's
OK; it's global that lasts the lifetime of the whole program
anyway).
