A pair of small fixups to "git commit-graph" have been applied.
* jk/commit-graph-cleanup:
commit-graph: turn off save_commit_buffer
commit-graph: don't show progress percentages while expanding reachable commits
Emit trace2_cmd_mode() messages for each commit-graph
sub-command.
The commit graph commands were in flux when trace2 was
making it's way to git. Now that we have enough sub-commands
in commit-graph, we can label the various modes within them.
Distinguishing between read, write and verify is a great
start.

The commit-graph tool may read a lot of commits, but it only cares about
parsing their metadata (parents, trees, etc) and doesn't ever show the
messages to the user. And so it should not need save_commit_buffer,
which is meant for holding onto the object data of parsed commits so
that we can show them later. In fact, it's quite harmful to do so.
According to massif, the max heap of "git commit-graph write
--reachable" in linux.git before/after this patch (removing the commit
graph file in between) goes from ~1.1GB to ~270MB.
Which isn't surprising, since the difference is about the sum of the
uncompressed sizes of all commits in the repository, and this was
equivalent to leaking them.
This obviously helps if you're under memory pressure, but even without
it, things go faster. My before/after times for that command (without
massif) went from 12.521s to 11.874s, a speedup of ~5%.

While 'git commit-graph write --stdin-commits' expects commit object
ids as input, it accepts and silently skips over any invalid commit
object ids, and still exits with success:
# nonsense
$ echo not-a-commit-oid | git commit-graph write --stdin-commits
$ echo $?
0
# sometimes I forgot that refs are not good...
$ echo HEAD | git commit-graph write --stdin-commits
$ echo $?
0
# valid tree OID, but not a commit OID
$ git rev-parse HEAD^{tree} | git commit-graph write --stdin-commits
$ echo $?
0
$ ls -l .git/objects/info/commit-graph
ls: cannot access '.git/objects/info/commit-graph': No such file or directory
Check that all input records are indeed valid commit object ids and
return with error otherwise, the same way '--stdin-packs' handles
invalid input; see e103f7276f (commit-graph: return with errors during
write, 2019-06-12).
Note that it should only return with error when encountering an
invalid commit object id coming from standard input. However,
'--reachable' uses the same code path to process object ids pointed to
by all refs, and that includes tag object ids as well, which should
still be skipped over. Therefore add a new flag to 'enum
commit_graph_write_flags' and a corresponding field to 'struct
write_commit_graph_context', so we can differentiate between those two
cases.

The write_commit_graph() method uses die() to report failure and
exit when confronted with an unexpected condition. This use of
die() in a library function is incorrect and is now replaced by
error() statements and an int return type. Return zero on success
and a negative value on failure.
Now that we use 'goto cleanup' to jump to the terminal condition
on an error, we have new paths that could lead to uninitialized
values. New initializers are added to correct for this.
The builtins 'commit-graph', 'gc', and 'commit' call these methods,
so update them to check the return value. Test that 'git commit-graph
write' returns a proper error code when hitting a failure condition
in write_commit_graph().

Change "commit-graph verify" to error on open() failures other than
ENOENT. As noted in the third paragraph of 283e68c72f ("commit-graph:
add 'verify' subcommand", 2018-06-27) and the test it added it's
intentional that "commit-graph verify" doesn't error out when the file
doesn't exist.
But let's not be overly promiscuous in what we accept. If we can't
read the file for other reasons, e.g. permission errors, bad file
descriptor etc. we'd like to report an error to the user.

An earlier change implemented load_commit_graph_one_fd_st() in a way
that was bug-compatible with earlier code in terms of the "graph file
%s is too small" error message printing out the path to the
commit-graph (".git/objects/info/commit-graph").
But change that, because:
* A function that takes an already-open file descriptor also needing
the filename isn't very intuitive.
* The vast majority of errors we might emit when loading the graph
come from parse_commit_graph(), which doesn't report the
filename. Let's not do that either in this case for consistency.

Make the commit-graph loading code work as a library that returns an
error code instead of calling exit(1) when the commit-graph is
corrupt. This means that e.g. "status" will now report commit-graph
corruption as an "error: [...]" at the top of its output, but then
proceed to work normally.
This required splitting up the load_commit_graph_one() function so
that the code that deals with open()-ing and stat()-ing the graph can
now be called independently as open_commit_graph().
This is needed because "commit-graph verify" where the graph doesn't
exist isn't an error. See the third paragraph in
283e68c72f ("commit-graph: add 'verify' subcommand",
2018-06-27). There's a bug in that logic where we conflate the
intended ENOENT with other errno values (e.g. EACCES), but this change
doesn't address that. That'll be addressed in a follow-up change.
I'm then splitting most of the logic out of load_commit_graph_one()
into load_commit_graph_one_fd_st(), which allows for providing an
existing file descriptor and stat information to the loading
code. This isn't strictly needed, but it would be redundant and
confusing to open() and stat() the file twice for some of the
codepaths, this allows for calling open_commit_graph() followed by
load_commit_graph_one_fd_st(). The "graph_file" still needs to be
passed to that function for the the "graph file %s is too small" error
message.
This leaves load_commit_graph_one() unused by everything except the
internal prepare_commit_graph_one() function, so let's mark it as
"static". If someone needs it in the future we can remove the "static"
attribute. I could also rewrite its sole remaining
user ("prepare_commit_graph_one()") to use
load_commit_graph_one_fd_st() instead, but let's leave it at this.

The optional 'Large Edge List' chunk of the commit graph file stores
parent information for commits with more than two parents, and the
names of most of the macros, variables, struct fields, and functions
related to this chunk contain the term "large edges", e.g.
write_graph_chunk_large_edges(). However, it's not a really great
term, as the edges to the second and subsequent parents stored in this
chunk are not any larger than the edges to the first and second
parents stored in the "main" 'Commit Data' chunk. It's the number of
edges, IOW number of parents, that is larger compared to non-merge and
"regular" two-parent merge commits. And indeed, two functions in
'commit-graph.c' have a local variable called 'num_extra_edges' that
refer to the same thing, and this "extra edges" term is much better at
describing these edges.
So let's rename all these references to "large edges" in macro,
variable, function, etc. names to "extra edges". There is a
GRAPH_OCTOPUS_EDGES_NEEDED macro as well; for the sake of consistency
rename it to GRAPH_EXTRA_EDGES_NEEDED.
We can do so safely without causing any incompatibility issues,
because the term "large edges" doesn't come up in the file format
itself in any form (the chunk's magic is {'E', 'D', 'G', 'E'}, there
is no 'L' in there), but only in the specification text. The string
"large edges", however, does come up in the output of 'git
commit-graph read' and in tests looking at its input, but that command
is explicitly documented as debugging aid, so we can change its output
and the affected tests safely.

`strbuf_getline()` may allocate memory in the strbuf, yet return EOF.
We need to release the strbuf or UNLEAK it. Go for the latter since we
are close to returning from `graph_write()`.
`graph_write()` also fails to free the strings in the string list. They
have been added to the list with `strdup_strings` set to 0. We could
flip `strdup_strings` before clearing the list, which is our usual hack
in situations like this. But since we are about to exit, let's just
UNLEAK the whole string list instead.
UNLEAK `graph` in `graph_verify`. While at it, and for consistency,
UNLEAK in `graph_read()` as well, and remove an unnecessary UNLEAK just
before dying.

Before this change the "commit-graph write" command didn't report any
progress. On my machine this command takes more than 10 seconds to
write the graph for linux.git, and around 1m30s on the
2015-04-03-1M-git.git[1] test repository (a test case for a large
monorepository).
Furthermore, since the gc.writeCommitGraph setting was added in
d5d5d7b641 ("gc: automatically write commit-graph files", 2018-06-27),
there was no indication at all from a "git gc" run that anything was
different. This why one of the progress bars being added here uses
start_progress() instead of start_delayed_progress(), so that it's
guaranteed to be seen. E.g. on my tiny 867 commit dotfiles.git
repository:
$ git -c gc.writeCommitGraph=true gc
Enumerating objects: 2821, done.
[...]
Computing commit graph generation numbers: 100% (867/867), done.
On larger repositories, such as linux.git the delayed progress bar(s)
will kick in, and we'll show what's going on instead of, as was
previously happening, printing nothing while we write the graph:
$ git -c gc.writeCommitGraph=true gc
[...]
Annotating commits in commit graph: 1565573, done.
Computing commit graph generation numbers: 100% (782484/782484), done.
Note that here we don't show "Finding commits for commit graph", this
is because under "git gc" we seed the search with the commit
references in the repository, and that set is too small to show any
progress, but would e.g. on a smaller repo such as git.git with
--stdin-commits:
$ git rev-list --all | git -c gc.writeCommitGraph=true write --stdin-commits
Finding commits for commit graph: 100% (162576/162576), done.
Computing commit graph generation numbers: 100% (162576/162576), done.
With --stdin-packs we don't show any estimation of how much is left to
do. This is because we might be processing more than one pack. We
could be less lazy here and show progress, either by detecting that
we're only processing one pack, or by first looping over the packs to
discover how many commits they have. I don't see the point in doing
that work. So instead we get (on 2015-04-03-1M-git.git):
$ echo pack-<HASH>.idx | git -c gc.writeCommitGraph=true --exec-path=$PWD commit-graph write --stdin-packs
Finding commits for commit graph: 13064614, done.
Annotating commits in commit graph: 3001341, done.
Computing commit graph generation numbers: 100% (1000447/1000447), done.
No GC mode uses --stdin-packs. It's what they use at Microsoft to
manually compute the generation numbers for their collection of large
packs which are never coalesced.
The reason we need a "report_progress" variable passed down from "git
gc" is so that we don't report this output when we're running in the
process "git gc --auto" detaches from the terminal.
Since we write the commit graph from the "git gc" process itself (as
opposed to what we do with say the "git repack" phase), we'd end up
writing the output to .git/gc.log and reporting it to the user next
time as part of the "The last gc run reported the following[...]"
error, see 329e6e8794 ("gc: save log from daemonized gc --auto and
print it next time", 2015-09-19).
So we must keep track of whether or not we're running in that
demonized mode, and if so print no progress.
See [2] and subsequent replies for a discussion of an approach not
taken in compute_generation_numbers(). I.e. we're saying "Computing
commit graph generation numbers", even though on an established
history we're mostly skipping over all the work we did in the
past. This is similar to the white lie we tell in the "Writing
objects" phase (not all are objects being written).
Always showing progress is considered more important than
accuracy. I.e. on a repository like 2015-04-03-1M-git.git we'd hang
for 6 seconds with no output on the second "git gc" if no changes were
made to any objects in the interim if we'd take the approach in [2].

If the commit-graph file becomes corrupt, we need a way to verify
that its contents match the object database. In the manner of
'git fsck' we will implement a 'git commit-graph verify' subcommand
to report all issues with the file.
Add the 'verify' subcommand to the 'commit-graph' builtin and its
documentation. The subcommand is currently a no-op except for
loading the commit-graph into memory, which may trigger run-time
errors that would be caught by normal use. Add a simple test that
ensures the command returns a zero error code.
If no commit-graph file exists, this is an acceptable state. Do
not report any errors.
