Commit 7ba826290a (revision: add rev_input_given flag, 2017-08-02) added
a flag to rev_info to tell whether we got any revision arguments. As
explained there, this is necessary because some revision arguments may
not produce any pending traversal objects, but should still inhibit
default behaviors (e.g., a glob that matches nothing).
However, it only set the flag in the globbing code, but not for
revisions we get on the command-line or via stdin. This leads to two
problems:
- the command-line code keeps its own separate got_rev_arg flag; this
isn't wrong, but it's confusing and an extra maintenance burden
- even specifically-named rev arguments might end up not adding any
pending objects: if --ignore-missing is set, then specifying a
missing object is a noop rather than an error.
And that leads to some user-visible bugs:
- when deciding whether a default rev like "HEAD" should kick in, we
check both got_rev_arg and rev_input_given. That means that
"--ignore-missing $ZERO_OID" works on the command-line (where we set
got_rev_arg) but not on --stdin (where we don't)
- when rev-list decides whether it should complain that it wasn't
given a starting point, it relies on rev_input_given. So it can't
even get the command-line "--ignore-missing $ZERO_OID" right
Let's consistently set the flag if we got any revision argument. That
lets us clean up the redundant got_rev_arg, and fixes both of those bugs
(but note there are three new tests: we'll confirm the already working
git-log command-line case).
A few implementation notes:
- conceptually we want to set the flag whenever handle_revision_arg()
finds an actual revision arg ("handles" it, you might say). But it
covers a ton of cases with early returns. Rather than annotating
each one, we just wrap it and use its success exit-code to set the
flag in one spot.
- the new rev-list test is in t6018, which is titled to cover globs.
This isn't exactly a glob, but it made sense to stick it with the
other tests that handle the "even though we got a rev, we have no
pending objects" case, which are globs.
- the tests check for the oid of a missing object, which it's pretty
clear --ignore-missing should ignore. You can see the same behavior
with "--ignore-missing a-ref-that-does-not-exist", because
--ignore-missing treats them both the same. That's perhaps less
clearly correct, and we may want to change that in the future. But
the way the code and tests here are written, we'd continue to do the
right thing even if it does.

When adding the reference-transaction hook, there were concerns about
the performance impact it may have on setups which do not make use of
the new hook at all. After all, it gets executed every time a reftx is
prepared, committed or aborted, which linearly scales with the number of
reference-transactions created per session. And as there are code paths
like `git push` which create a new transaction for each reference to be
updated, this may translate to calling `find_hook()` quite a lot.
To address this concern, a cache was added with the intention to not
repeatedly do negative hook lookups. Turns out this cache caused a
regression, which was fixed via e5256c82e5 (refs: fix interleaving hook
calls with reference-transaction hook, 2020-08-07). In the process of
discussing the fix, we realized that the cache doesn't really help even
in the negative-lookup case. While performance tests added to benchmark
this did show a slight improvement in the 1% range, this really doesn't
warrent having a cache. Furthermore, it's quite flaky, too. E.g. running
it twice in succession produces the following results:
Test master pks-reftx-hook-remove-cache
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
1400.2: update-ref 2.79(2.16+0.74) 2.73(2.12+0.71) -2.2%
1400.3: update-ref --stdin 0.22(0.08+0.14) 0.21(0.08+0.12) -4.5%
Test master pks-reftx-hook-remove-cache
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
1400.2: update-ref 2.70(2.09+0.72) 2.74(2.13+0.71) +1.5%
1400.3: update-ref --stdin 0.21(0.10+0.10) 0.21(0.08+0.13) +0.0%
One case notably absent from those benchmarks is a single executable
searching for the hook hundreds of times, which is exactly the case for
which the negative cache was added. p1400.2 will spawn a new update-ref
for each transaction and p1400.3 only has a single reference-transaction
for all reference updates. So this commit adds a third benchmark, which
performs an non-atomic push of a thousand references. This will create a
new reference transaction per reference. But even for this case, the
negative cache doesn't consistently improve performance:
Test master pks-reftx-hook-remove-cache
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
1400.4: nonatomic push 6.63(6.50+0.13) 6.81(6.67+0.14) +2.7%
1400.4: nonatomic push 6.35(6.21+0.14) 6.39(6.23+0.16) +0.6%
1400.4: nonatomic push 6.43(6.31+0.13) 6.42(6.28+0.15) -0.2%
So let's just remove the cache altogether to simplify the code.

When fetching with packfile URIs and transfer.fsckobjects=1, use the
--fsck-objects instead of the --strict flag when invoking index-pack so
that links are not checked, only objects. This is because incomplete
links are expected. (A subsequent connectivity check will be done when
all the packs have been downloaded regardless of whether
transfer.fsckobjects is set.)

The pathspec given to git checkout and git restore is used with both
tree_entry_interesting (via read_tree_recursive) and match_pathspec
(via ce_path_match). The latter effectively only supports recursive
matching regardless of the value of the pathspec flag "recursive",
which is unset here.
That causes different match results for pathspecs with wildcards, and
can lead checkout and restore in no-overlay mode to remove entries
instead of modifying them. Enable recursive matching for both checkout
and restore to make matching consistent.
Setting the flag in checkout_main() technically also affects git switch,
but since that command doesn't accept pathspecs at all this has no
actual consequence.

If `user.name` and `user.email` have not been configured and the

without specifying the committer identity, then Git errors out with
a message asking the user to configure `user.name` and `user.email`
but doesn't tell the user which attribution was missing. This can be
confusing for a user new to Git who isn't aware of the distinction

A handful of Git's commands respect `--abbrev' for customizing length
of abbreviation of object names.
For diff-family, Git supports 2 different options for 2 different
purposes, `--full-index' for showing diff-patch object's name in full,
and `--abbrev' to customize the length of object names in diff-raw and
diff-tree header lines, without any options to customise the length of
object names in diff-patch format. When working with diff-patch format,
we only have two options, either full index, or default abbrev length.
Although, that behaviour is documented, it doesn't stop users from
trying to use `--abbrev' with the hope of customising diff-patch's
objects' name's abbreviation.
Let's allow the blob object names shown on the "index" line to be
abbreviated to arbitrary length given via the "--abbrev" option.
To preserve backward compatibility with old script that specify both
`--full-index' and `--abbrev', always show full object id
if `--full-index' is specified.

From 72f936b1 (t4013: make test hash independent, 2020-02-07),
we started to adjust metadata of git-diff's output in order to
ignore uninteresting metadata which is dependent of underlying hash
algorithm.
However, we forgot to special case all-zero object names, which is
special for missing objects, in consequence, we could't catch
possible future bugs where object names is all-zeros including but
not limited to:
* show intend-to-add entry
* deleted entry
* diff between index and working tree with new file
We also mistakenly munged file-modes as if they were object names
abbreviated to 6 hexadecimal digits.
In addition, in the upcoming change, we would like to test for
customizing the length of abbreviated blob objects on the index line,
which is not supported by current diff-processor logic.
Let's fix the bug for all-zero object names, and file modes.
While we're at it, support abbreviation of object names up to 16 bytes.

Commit b8a2486f15 (index-pack: support multithreaded delta resolving,
2012-05-06) describes an experiment that shows that setting the number
of threads for index-pack higher than 3 does not help.
I repeated that experiment using a more modern version of Git and a more
modern CPU and got different results.
Here are timings for p5302 against linux.git run on my laptop, a Core
i9-9880H with 8 cores plus hyperthreading (so online-cpus returns 16):
5302.3: index-pack 0 threads 256.28(253.41+2.79)
5302.4: index-pack 1 threads 257.03(254.03+2.91)
5302.5: index-pack 2 threads 149.39(268.34+3.06)
5302.6: index-pack 4 threads 94.96(294.10+3.23)
5302.7: index-pack 8 threads 68.12(339.26+3.89)
5302.8: index-pack 16 threads 70.90(655.03+7.21)
5302.9: index-pack default number of threads 116.91(290.05+3.21)
You can see that wall-clock times continue to improve dramatically up to
the number of cores, but bumping beyond that (into hyperthreading
territory) does not help (and in fact hurts a little).
Here's the same experiment on a machine with dual Xeon 6230's, totaling
40 cores (80 with hyperthreading):
5302.3: index-pack 0 threads 310.04(302.73+6.90)
5302.4: index-pack 1 threads 310.55(302.68+7.40)
5302.5: index-pack 2 threads 178.17(304.89+8.20)
5302.6: index-pack 5 threads 99.53(315.54+9.56)
5302.7: index-pack 10 threads 72.80(327.37+12.79)
5302.8: index-pack 20 threads 60.68(357.74+21.66)
5302.9: index-pack 40 threads 58.07(454.44+67.96)
5302.10: index-pack 80 threads 59.81(720.45+334.52)
5302.11: index-pack default number of threads 134.18(309.32+7.98)
The results are similar; things stop improving at 40 threads. Curiously,
going from 20 to 40 really doesn't help much, either (and increases CPU
time considerably). So that may represent an actual barrier to
parallelism, where we lose out due to context-switching and loss of
cache locality, but don't reap the wall-clock benefits due to contention
of our coarse-grained locks.
So what's a good default value? It's clear that the current cap of 3 is
too low; our default values are 42% and 57% slower than the best times
on each machine. The results on the 40-core machine imply that 20
threads is an actual barrier regardless of the number of cores, so we'll
take that as a maximum. We get the best results on these machines at
half of the online-cpus value. That's presumably a result of the
hyperthreading. That's common on multi-core Intel processors, but not
necessarily elsewhere. But if we take it as an assumption, we can
perform optimally on hyperthreaded machines and still do much better
than the status quo on other machines, as long as we never half below
the current value of 3.
So that's what this patch does.
