2841e8f81c convert: add "status=delayed" to filter process protocol
Some `clean` / `smudge` filters may require a significant amount of
time to process a single blob (e.g. the Git LFS smudge filter might
perform network requests). During this process the Git checkout
operation is blocked and Git needs to wait until the filter is done to
continue with the checkout.

Teach the filter process protocol, introduced in edcc8581 ("convert: add
filter.<driver>.process option", 2016-10-16), to accept the status
"delayed" as response to a filter request. Upon this response Git
continues with the checkout operation. After the checkout operation Git
calls "finish_delayed_checkout" which queries the filter for remaining
blobs. If the filter is still working on the completion, then the filter
is expected to block. If the filter has completed all remaining blobs
then an empty response is expected.

Git has a multiple code paths that checkout a blob. Support delayed
checkouts only in `clone` (in unpack-trees.c) and `checkout` operations
for now. The optimization is most effective in these code paths as all
files of the tree are processed.

fa0624f79f Merge branch 'dt/unpack-save-untracked-cache-extension'
When "git checkout", "git merge", etc. manipulates the in-core
index, various pieces of information in the index extensions are
discarded from the original state, as it is usually not the case
that they are kept up-to-date and in-sync with the operation on the
main index.  The untracked cache extension is copied across these
operations now, which would speed up "git status" (as long as the
cache is properly invalidated).

edf3b90553 unpack-trees: preserve index extensions
Make git checkout (and other unpack_tree operations) preserve the
untracked cache. This is valuable for two reasons:

1. Often, an unpack_tree operation will not touch large parts of the
working tree, and thus most of the untracked cache will continue to be
valid.

2. Even if the untracked cache were entirely invalidated by such an
operation, the user has signaled their intention to have such a cache,
and we don't want to throw it away.

d12a8cf0af unpack-trees: avoid duplicate ODB lookups during checkout
Teach traverse_trees_recursive() to not do redundant ODB
lookups when both directories refer to the same OID.

In operations such as read-tree and checkout, there will
likely be many peer directories that have the same OID when
the differences between the commits are relatively small.
In these cases we can avoid hitting the ODB multiple times
for the same OID.

This patch handles n=2 and n=3 cases and simply copies the
data rather than repeating the fill_tree_descriptor().

================
On the Windows repo (500K trees, 3.1M files, 450MB index),
this reduced the overall time by 0.75 seconds when cycling
between 2 commits with a single file difference.

in sync with the tree in working tree changing commands,
such as checkout or read-tree.

for the tree. Add this check for submodules to be
performed before the working tree is touched.

3d415425c7 unpack-trees: support super-prefix option
In the future we want to support working tree operations within submodules,
e.g. "git checkout --recurse-submodules", which will update the submodule
to the commit as recorded in its superproject. In the submodule the
unpack-tree operation is carried out as usual, but the reporting to the
user needs to prefix any path with the superproject. The mechanism for
this is the super-prefix. (see 74866d757, git: make super-prefix option)

Add support for the super-prefix option for commands that unpack trees
by wrapping any path output in unpacking trees in the newly introduced
super_prefixed function. This new function prefixes any path with the
super-prefix if there is one.  Assuming the submodule case doesn't happen
in the majority of the cases, we'd want to have a fast behavior for no
super prefix, i.e. no reallocation/copying, but just returning path.

Another aspect of introducing the `super_prefixed` function is to consider
who owns the memory and if this is the right place where the path gets
modified. As the super prefix ought to change the output behavior only and
not the actual unpack tree part, it is fine to be that late in the line.
As we get passed in 'const char *path', we cannot change the path itself,
which means in case of a super prefix we have to copy over the path.
We need two static buffers in that function as the error messages
contain at most two paths.

For testing purposes enable it in read-tree, which has no output
of paths other than an unpack-trees.c. These are all converted in
this patch.

30ac275b1c unpack-trees: move checkout state into check_updates
The checkout state was introduced via 16da134b1f
(read-trees: refactor the unpack_trees() part, 2006-07-30). An attempt to
refactor the checkout state was done in b56aa5b268 (unpack-trees: pass
checkout state explicitly to check_updates(), 2016-09-13), but we can
go even further.

The `struct checkout state` is not used in unpack_trees apart from
initializing it, so move it into the function that makes use of it,
which is `check_updates`.

Instead of reusing the same set of message templates for checkout

separate message templates for each known action. That would make
it easier for translation into languages where the same verb may
conjugate differently depending on the message we are giving.

a6720955f1 unpack-trees: fix accidentally quadratic behavior
While unpacking trees (e.g. during git checkout), when we hit a cache
entry that's past and outside our path, we cut off iteration.

This provides about a 45% speedup on git checkout between master and
master^20000 on Twitter's monorepo.  Speedup in general will depend on
repostitory structure, number of changes, and packfile packing
decisions.

d9c2bd560e do_compare_entry: use already-computed path
In traverse_trees, we generate the complete traverse path for a
traverse_info.  Later, in do_compare_entry, we used to go do a bunch
of work to compare the traverse_info to a cache_entry's name without
computing that path.  But since we already have that path, we don't
need to do all that work.  Instead, we can just put the generated
path into the traverse_info, and do the comparison more directly.

We copy the path because prune_traversal might mutate `base`. This
doesn't happen in any codepaths where do_compare_entry is called,
but it's better to be safe.

This makes git checkout much faster -- about 25% on Twitter's
monorepo.  Deeper directory trees are likely to benefit more than
shallower ones.

75faa45ae0 replace trivial malloc + sprintf / strcpy calls with xstrfmt
It's a common pattern to do:

  foo = xmalloc(strlen(one) + strlen(two) + 1 + 1);
  sprintf(foo, "%s %s", one, two);

(or possibly some variant with strcpy()s or a more
complicated length computation).  We can switch these to use
xstrfmt, which is shorter, involves less error-prone manual
computation, and removes many sprintf and strcpy calls which
make it harder to audit the code for real buffer overflows.

f514ef9787 verify_absent: allow filenames longer than PATH_MAX
When unpack-trees wants to know whether a path will
overwrite anything in the working tree, we use lstat() to
see if there is anything there. But if we are going to write
"foo/bar", we can't just lstat("foo/bar"); we need to look
for leading prefixes (e.g., "foo"). So we use the lstat cache
to find the length of the leading prefix, and copy the
filename up to that length into a temporary buffer (since
the original name is const, we cannot just stick a NUL in
it).

The copy we make goes into a PATH_MAX-sized buffer, which
will overflow if the prefix is longer than PATH_MAX. How
this happens is a little tricky, since in theory PATH_MAX is
the biggest path we will have read from the filesystem. But
this can happen if:

  - the compiled-in PATH_MAX does not accurately reflect
    what the filesystem is capable of

  - the leading prefix is not _quite_ what is on disk; it
    contains the next element from the name we are checking.
    So if we want to write "aaa/bbb/ccc/ddd" and "aaa/bbb"
    exists, the prefix of interest is "aaa/bbb/ccc". If
    "aaa/bbb" approaches PATH_MAX, then "ccc" can overflow
    it.

So this can be triggered, but it's hard to do. In
particular, you cannot just "git clone" a bogus repo. The
verify_absent checks happen before unpack-trees writes
anything to the filesystem, so there are never any leading
prefixes during the initial checkout, and the bug doesn't
trigger. And by definition, these files are larger than
PATH_MAX, so writing them will fail, and clone will
complain (though it may write a partial path, which will
cause a subsequent "git checkout" to hit the bug).

We can fix it by creating the temporary path on the heap.
The extra malloc overhead is not important, as we are
already making at least one stat() call (and probably more
for the prefix discovery).

8c9155e031 Merge branch 'jk/git-path'
git_path() and mkpath() are handy helper functions but it is easy
to misuse, as the callers need to be careful to keep the number of
active results below 4.  Their uses have been reduced.

* jk/git-path:
  memoize common git-path "constant" files
  get_repo_path: refactor path-allocation
  find_hook: keep our own static buffer

9ad8474b98 Merge branch 'dt/unpack-trees-cache-tree-revalidate'
The code to perform multi-tree merges has been taught to repopulate
the cache-tree upon a successful merge into the index, so that
subsequent "diff-index --cached" (hence "status") and "write-tree"
(hence "commit") will go faster.

The same logic in "git checkout" may now be removed, but that is a
separate issue.

fcd12db6af prefer git_pathdup to git_path in some possibly-dangerous cases
Because git_path uses a static buffer that is shared with
calls to git_path, mkpath, etc, it can be dangerous to
assign the result to a variable or pass it to a non-trivial
function. The value may change unexpectedly due to other
calls.

None of the cases changed here has a known bug, but they're
worth converting away from git_path because:

  1. It's easy to use git_pathdup in these cases.

  2. They use constructs (like assignment) that make it
     hard to tell whether they're safe or not.

The extra malloc overhead should be trivial, as an
allocation should be an order of magnitude cheaper than a
system call (which we are clearly about to make, since we
are constructing a filename). The real cost is that we must
remember to free the result.
