bc50d6c91f commit-graph: prepare commit graph
Before checking if the repository has a commit-graph loaded, be sure
to run prepare_commit_graph(). This is necessary because otherwise
the topo_levels slab is not initialized. As we compute topo_levels for
the new commits, we iterate further into the lower layers since the
first visit to each commit looks as though the topo_level is not
populated.

By properly initializing the topo_slab, we fix the previously broken
case of a split commit graph where a base layer has the
generation_data_overflow chunk.

90cb1c47c7 commit-graph: always parse before commit_graph_data_at()
There is a subtle failure happening when computing corrected commit
dates with --split enabled. It requires a base layer needing the
generation_data_overflow chunk. Then, the next layer on top
erroneously thinks it needs an overflow chunk due to a bug leading
to recalculating all reachable generation numbers. The output of
the failure is

  BUG: commit-graph.c:1912: expected to write 8 bytes to
  chunk 47444f56, but wrote 0 instead

These "expected" 8 bytes are due to re-computing the corrected
commit date for the lower layer but the new layer does not need
any overflow.

Add a test to t5318-commit-graph.sh that demonstrates this bug. However,
it does not trigger consistently with the existing code.

The generation number data is stored in a slab and accessed by
commit_graph_data_at(). This data is initialized when parsing a commit,
but is otherwise used assuming it has been populated. The loop in
compute_generation_numbers() did not enforce that all reachable
commits were parsed and had correct values. This could lead to some
problems when writing a commit-graph with corrected commit dates based
on a commit-graph without them.

It has been difficult to identify the issue here because it was so hard
to reproduce. It relies on this uninitialized data having a non-zero
value, but also on specifically in a way that overwrites the existing
data.

This patch adds the extra parse to ensure the data is filled before we
compute the generation number of a commit. This triggers the new test
to fail because the generation number overflow count does not match
between this computation and the write for that chunk.

The actual fix will follow as the next few changes.

8d00d7c3df commit-reach: use corrected commit dates in paint_down_to_common()
091f4cf (commit: don't use generation numbers if not needed,
2018-08-30) changed paint_down_to_common() to use commit dates instead
of generation numbers v1 (topological levels) as the performance
regressed on certain topologies. With generation number v2 (corrected
commit dates) implemented, we no longer have to rely on commit dates and
can use generation numbers.

For example, the command `git merge-base v4.8 v4.9` on the Linux
repository walks 167468 commits, taking 0.135s for committer date and
167496 commits, taking 0.157s for corrected committer date respectively.

While using corrected commit dates, Git walks nearly the same number of
commits as commit date, the process is slower as for each comparision we
have to access a commit-slab (for corrected committer date) instead of
accessing struct member (for committer date).

This change incidentally broke the fragile t6404-recursive-merge test.
t6404-recursive-merge sets up a unique repository where all commits have
the same committer date without a well-defined merge-base.

While running tests with GIT_TEST_COMMIT_GRAPH unset, we use committer
date as a heuristic in paint_down_to_common(). 6404.1 'combined merge
conflicts' merges commits in the order:
- Merge C with B to form an intermediate commit.
- Merge the intermediate commit with A.

With GIT_TEST_COMMIT_GRAPH=1, we write a commit-graph and subsequently
use the corrected committer date, which changes the order in which
commits are merged:
- Merge A with B to form an intermediate commit.
- Merge the intermediate commit with C.

While resulting repositories are equivalent, 6404.4 'virtual trees were
processed' fails with GIT_TEST_COMMIT_GRAPH=1 as we are selecting
different merge-bases and thus have different object ids for the
intermediate commits.

As this has already causes problems (as noted in 859fdc0 (commit-graph:
define GIT_TEST_COMMIT_GRAPH, 2018-08-29)), we disable commit graph
within t6404-recursive-merge.

1fdc383c5c commit-graph: use generation v2 only if entire chain does
Since there are released versions of Git that understand generation
numbers in the commit-graph's CDAT chunk but do not understand the GDAT
chunk, the following scenario is possible:

1. "New" Git writes a commit-graph with the GDAT chunk.
2. "Old" Git writes a split commit-graph on top without a GDAT chunk.

If each layer of split commit-graph is treated independently, as it was
the case before this commit, with Git inspecting only the current layer
for chunk_generation_data pointer, commits in the lower layer (one with
GDAT) whould have corrected commit date as their generation number,
while commits in the upper layer would have topological levels as their
generation. Corrected commit dates usually have much larger values than
topological levels. This means that if we take two commits, one from the
upper layer, and one reachable from it in the lower layer, then the
expectation that the generation of a parent is smaller than the
generation of a child would be violated.

It is difficult to expose this issue in a test. Since we _start_ with
artificially low generation numbers, any commit walk that prioritizes
generation numbers will walk all of the commits with high generation
number before walking the commits with low generation number. In all the
cases I tried, the commit-graph layers themselves "protect" any
incorrect behavior since none of the commits in the lower layer can
reach the commits in the upper layer.

This issue would manifest itself as a performance problem in this case,
especially with something like "git log --graph" since the low
generation numbers would cause the in-degree queue to walk all of the
commits in the lower layer before allowing the topo-order queue to write
anything to output (depending on the size of the upper layer).

Therefore, When writing the new layer in split commit-graph, we write a
GDAT chunk only if the topmost layer has a GDAT chunk. This guarantees
that if a layer has GDAT chunk, all lower layers must have a GDAT chunk
as well.

Rewriting layers follows similar approach: if the topmost layer below
the set of layers being rewritten (in the split commit-graph chain)
exists, and it does not contain GDAT chunk, then the result of rewrite
does not have GDAT chunks either.

e8b63005c4 commit-graph: implement generation data chunk
As discovered by Ævar, we cannot increment graph version to
distinguish between generation numbers v1 and v2 [1]. Thus, one of
pre-requistes before implementing generation number v2 was to
distinguish between graph versions in a backwards compatible manner.

We are going to introduce a new chunk called Generation DATa chunk (or
GDAT). GDAT will store corrected committer date offsets whereas CDAT
will still store topological level.

Old Git does not understand GDAT chunk and would ignore it, reading
topological levels from CDAT. New Git can parse GDAT and take advantage
of newer generation numbers, falling back to topological levels when
GDAT chunk is missing (as it would happen with a commit-graph written
by old Git).

We introduce a test environment variable 'GIT_TEST_COMMIT_GRAPH_NO_GDAT'
which forces commit-graph file to be written without generation data
chunk to emulate a commit-graph file written by old Git.

To minimize the space required to store corrrected commit date, Git
stores corrected commit date offsets into the commit-graph file, instea
of corrected commit dates. This saves us 4 bytes per commit, decreasing
the GDAT chunk size by half, but it's possible for the offset to
overflow the 4-bytes allocated for storage. As such overflows are and
should be exceedingly rare, we use the following overflow management
scheme:

We introduce a new commit-graph chunk, Generation Data OVerflow ('GDOV')
to store corrected commit dates for commits with offsets greater than
GENERATION_NUMBER_V2_OFFSET_MAX.

If the offset is greater than GENERATION_NUMBER_V2_OFFSET_MAX, we set
the MSB of the offset and the other bits store the position of corrected
commit date in GDOV chunk, similar to how Extra Edge List is maintained.

We test the overflow-related code with the following repo history:

           F - N - U
          /         \
U - N - U            N
         \          /
	  N - F - N

Where the commits denoted by U have committer date of zero seconds
since Unix epoch, the commits denoted by N have committer date of
1112354055 (default committer date for the test suite) seconds since
Unix epoch and the commits denoted by F have committer date of
(2 ^ 31 - 2) seconds since Unix epoch.

The largest offset observed is 2 ^ 31, just large enough to overflow.

c0ef139843 t6600-test-reach: generalize *_three_modes
In a preparatory step to implement generation number v2, we add tests to
ensure Git can read and parse commit-graph files without Generation Data
chunk. These files represent commit-graph files written by Old Git and
are neccesary for backward compatability.

We extend run_three_modes() and test_three_modes() to *_all_modes() with
the fourth mode being "commit-graph without generation data chunk".

f90fca638e commit-graph: consolidate fill_commit_graph_info
Both fill_commit_graph_info() and fill_commit_in_graph() parse
information present in commit data chunk. Let's simplify the
implementation by calling fill_commit_graph_info() within
fill_commit_in_graph().

fill_commit_graph_info() used to not load committer data from commit data
chunk. However, with the upcoming switch to using corrected committer
date as generation number v2, we will have to load committer date to
compute generation number value anyway.

e51217e15 (t5000: test tar files that overflow ustar headers,
30-06-2016) introduced a test 'generate tar with future mtime' that
creates a commit with committer date of (2^36 + 1) seconds since
EPOCH. The CDAT chunk provides 34-bits for storing committer date, thus
committer time overflows into generation number (within CDAT chunk) and
has undefined behavior.

The test used to pass as fill_commit_graph_info() would not set struct
member `date` of struct commit and load committer date from the object
database, generating a tar file with the expected mtime.

However, with corrected commit date, we will load the committer date
from CDAT chunk (truncated to lower 34-bits to populate the generation
number. Thus, Git sets date and generates tar file with the truncated
mtime.

The ustar format (the header format used by most modern tar programs)
only has room for 11 (or 12, depending on some implementations) octal
digits for the size and mtime of each file.

As the CDAT chunk is overflow by 12-octal digits but not 11-octal
digits, we split the existing tests to test both implementations
separately and add a new explicit test for 11-digit implementation.

To test the 11-octal digit implementation, we create a future commit
with committer date of 2^34 - 1, which overflows 11-octal digits without
overflowing 34-bits of the Commit Date chunks.

To test the 12-octal digit implementation, the smallest committer date
possible is 2^36 + 1, which overflows the CDAT chunk and thus
commit-graph must be disabled for the test.

66dc0a3625 gc: fix handling of crontab magic markers
On `git maintenance start`, we add a few entries to the user's cron
table. We wrap our entries using two magic markers, "# BEGIN GIT
MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE" and "# END GIT MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE". At a later
`git maintenance stop`, we will go through the table and remove these
lines. Or rather, we will remove the "BEGIN" marker, the "END" marker
and everything between them.

Alas, we have a bug in how we detect the "END" marker: we don't. As we
loop through all the lines of the crontab, if we are in the "old
region", i.e., the region we're aiming to remove, we make an early
`continue` and don't get as far as checking for the "END" marker. Thus,
once we've seen our "BEGIN", we remove everything until the end of the
file.

Rewrite the logic for identifying these markers. There are four cases
that are mutually exclusive: The current line starts a region or it ends
it, or it's firmly within the region, or it's outside of it (and should
be printed).

654bd7e8a9 t3205: finalize transitioning to using the branch name main
In 66713e84e7 (tests: prepare aligned mentions of the default branch
name, 2020-10-23), we started that transition, trying to prepare for a
time when `git init` would use that name for the initial branch.

Even if that time has not arrived, we can complete the transition by
making the test script independent of the default branch name. This also
allows us to drop the `PREPARE_FOR_MAIN_BRANCH` prereq from one test
case.

ec9779bcd8 t3200: finish transitioning to the initial branch name main
In 56300ff356 (t3200: prepare for `main` being shorter than `master`,
2020-10-23) and in 66713e84e7 (tests: prepare aligned mentions of the
default branch name, 2020-10-23), we started to prepare t3200 for a new
world where `git init` uses the branch name `main` for the initial
branch.

We do not even have to wait for that new world: we can easily ensure
that that branch name is used, independent of the exact name `git init`
will give the initial branch, so let's do that.

This also lets us remove the `PREPARE_FOR_MAIN_BRANCH` prereq from three
test cases in that script.

35a16dbe32 t1400: use main as initial branch name
In 3224b0f0bb (t1400: prepare for `main` being default branch name,
2020-10-23), we prepared t1400 for a time when the default initial
branch name would be `main`.

However, there is no need to wait that long: let's adjust the test
script to stop relying on a specific initial branch name by setting it
explicitly. This allows us to drop the `PREPARE_FOR_MAIN_BRANCH` prereq
from two test cases.

50f0439490 diff: correct interaction between --exit-code and -I<pattern>
Just like "git diff -w --exit-code" should exit with 0 when ignoring
whitespace differences results in no changes shown, if ignoring
certain changes with "git diff -I<pattern> --exit-code" result in an
empty patch, we should exit with 0.

The test suite did not cover the interaction between "--exit-code"
and "-w"; add one while adding a new test for "--exit-code" + "-I".

f4698738f9 t/perf: fix test_export() failure with BSD sed
test_perf() runs each test in its own subshell which makes it difficult
to persist variables between tests. test_export() addresses this
shortcoming by grabbing the values of specified variables after a test
runs but before the subshell exits, and writes those values to a file
which is loaded into the environment of subsequent tests.

To grab the values to be persisted, test_export() pipes the output of
the shell's builtin `set` command through `sed` which plucks them out
using a regular expression along the lines of `s/^(var1|var2)/.../p`.
Unfortunately, though, this use of alternation is not portable. For
instance, BSD-lineage `sed` (including macOS `sed`) does not support it
in the default "basic regular expression" mode (BRE). It may be possible
to enable "extended regular expression" mode (ERE) in some cases with
`sed -E`, however, `-E` is neither portable nor part of POSIX.

Fortunately, alternation is unnecessary in this case and can easily be
avoided, so replace it with a series of simple expressions such as
`s/^var1/.../p;s/^var2/.../p`.

While at it, tighten the expressions so they match the variable names
exactly rather than matching prefixes (i.e. use `s/^var1=/.../p`).

If the requirements of test_export() become more complex in the future,
then an alternative would be to replace `sed` with `perl` which supports
alternation on all platforms, however, the simple elimination of
alternation via multiple `sed` expressions suffices for the present.

675704c74d init: provide useful advice about init.defaultBranch
To give ample warning for users wishing to override Git's the fall-back
for an unconfigured `init.defaultBranch` (in case we decide to change it
in a future Git version), let's introduce some advice that is shown upon
`git init` when that value is not set.

Note: two test cases in Git's test suite want to verify that the
`stderr` output of `git init` is empty. It is now necessary to suppress
the advice, we now do that via the `init.defaultBranch` setting. While
not strictly necessary, we also set this to `false` in
`test_create_repo()`.
