f08cbf60fe index-pack: make quantum of work smaller
Currently, when index-pack resolves deltas, it does not split up delta
trees into threads: each delta base root (an object that is not a
REF_DELTA or OFS_DELTA) can go into its own thread, but all deltas on
that root (direct or indirect) are processed in the same thread.

This is a problem when a repository contains a large text file (thus,
delta-able) that is modified many times - delta resolution time during
fetching is dominated by processing the deltas corresponding to that
text file.

This patch contains a solution to that. When cloning using

  git -c core.deltabasecachelimit=1g clone \
    https://fuchsia.googlesource.com/third_party/vulkan-cts

on my laptop, clone time improved from 3m2s to 2m5s (using 3 threads,
which is the default).

The solution is to have a global work stack. This stack contains delta
bases (objects, whether appearing directly in the packfile or generated
by delta resolution, that themselves have delta children) that need to
be processed; whenever a thread needs work, it peeks at the top of the
stack and processes its next unprocessed child. If a thread finds the
stack empty, it will look for more delta base roots to push on the stack
instead.

The main weakness of having a global work stack is that more time is
spent in the mutex, but profiling has shown that most time is spent in
the resolution of the deltas themselves, so this shouldn't be an issue
in practice. In any case, experimentation (as described in the clone
command above) shows that this patch is a net improvement.

07a7f8debf format-patch: use 'origin' as start of current-series-range when known
When formatting a patch series over `origin..HEAD`, one would expect
that range to be used as the current-series-range when computing a
range-diff between the previous and current versions of a patch series.
However, infer_range_diff_ranges() ignores `origin..HEAD` when
--range-diff=<prev> specifies a single revision rather than a range, and
instead unexpectedly computes the current-series-range based upon
<prev>. Address this anomaly by unconditionally using `origin..HEAD` as
the current-series-range regardless of <prev> as long as `origin` is
known, and only fall back to basing current-series-range on <prev> when
`origin` is not known.

72a7239016 diff-lib: tighten show_interdiff()'s interface
To compute and show an interdiff, show_interdiff() needs only the two
OID's to compare and a diffopts, yet it expects callers to supply an
entire rev_info. The demand for rev_info is not only overkill, but also
places unnecessary burden on potential future callers which might not
otherwise have a rev_info at hand. Address this by tightening its
signature to require only the items it needs instead of a full rev_info.

cdffbdc217 diff: move show_interdiff() from its own file to diff-lib
show_interdiff() is a relatively small function and not likely to grow
larger or more complicated. Rather than dedicating an entire source file
to it, relocate it to diff-lib.c which houses other "take two things and
compare them" functions meant to be re-used but not so low-level as to
reside in the core diff implementation.

2df2d81ddd add -i: use the built-in version when feature.experimental is set
We have had parallel implementations of "add -i/-p" since 2.25 and
have been using them from various codepaths since 2.26 days, but
never made the built-in version the default.

We have found and fixed a handful of corner case bugs in the
built-in version, and it may be a good time to start switching over
the user base from the scripted version to the built-in version.
Let's enable the built-in version for those who opt into the
feature.experimental guinea-pig program to give wider exposure.

c670aa47df worktree: teach add to recognize -d as shorthand for --detach
Like `git switch` and `git checkout`, `git worktree add` can check out a
branch or set up a detached HEAD. However, unlike those other commands,
`git worktree add` does not understand -d as shorthand for --detach,
which may confound users accustomed to using -d for this purpose.
Address this shortcoming by teaching `add` to recognize -d for --detach,
thus bringing it in line with the other commands.

30035d9c66 push: release strbufs used for refspec formatting
map_refspec() either returns the passed in ref string or a detached
strbuf.  This makes it hard for callers to release the possibly
allocated memory, and set_refspecs() consequently leaks it.

Let map_refspec() append any refspecs directly and release its own
strbufs after use.  Rename it to refspec_append_mapped() and don't
return anything to reflect its increased responsibility.

set_refspecs() also leaks its strbufs.  Do the same here and directly
call refspec_append() in each if branch instead of holding onto a
detached strbuf, then dispose of the allocated memory after use.  We
need to add an else branch for the final call because all the other
conditional branches already add their formatted refspec now.

setup_push_upstream() and setup_push_current() forgot to release their
strbufs as well; plug these leaks, too, while at it.

None of these leaks were likely to impact users, because the number
and sizes of refspecs are usually small and the allocations are only
done once per program run.  Clean them up nevertheless, as another
step on the long road towards zero memory leaks.

7ea0c2f44d fetch: do not look for submodule changes in unchanged refs
When fetching recursively with submodules, for each ref in the
superproject, we call check_for_new_submodule_commits() which collects all
the objects that have to be checked for submodule changes on
calculate_changed_submodule_paths(). On the first call, it also collects all
the existing refs for excluding them from the scan.

calculate_changed_submodule_paths() creates an argument array with all the
collected new objects, followed by --not and all the old objects. This argv
is passed to setup_revisions, which parses each argument, converts it back
to an oid and resolves the object. The parsing itself also does redundant
work, because it is treated like user input, while in fact it is a full
oid. So it needlessly attempts to look it up as ref (checks if it has ^, ~
etc.), checks if it is a file name etc.

For a repository with many refs, all of this is expensive. But if the fetch
in the superproject did not update the ref (i.e. the objects that are
required to exist in the submodule did not change), there is no need to
include it in the list.

Before commit be76c212 (fetch: ensure submodule objects fetched,
2018-12-06), submodule reference changes were only detected for refs that
were changed, but not for new refs. This commit covered also this case, but
what it did was to just include every ref.

This change should reduce the number of scanned refs by about half (except
the case of a no-op fetch, which will not scan any ref), because all the
existing refs will still be listed after --not.

The regression was reported here:

f24c30e0b6 wt-status: tolerate dangling marks
When a user checks out the upstream branch of HEAD, the upstream branch
not being a local branch, and then runs "git status", like this:

  git clone $URL client
  cd client
  git checkout @{u}
  git status

no status is printed, but instead an error message:

  fatal: HEAD does not point to a branch

(This error message when running "git branch" persists even after
checking out other things - it only stops after checking out a branch.)

This is because "git status" reads the reflog when determining the "HEAD
detached" message, and thus attempts to DWIM "@{u}", but that doesn't
work because HEAD no longer points to a branch.

Therefore, when calculating the status of a worktree, tolerate dangling
marks. This is done by adding an additional parameter to
dwim_ref() and repo_dwim_ref().

db3c293ecd fetch: no FETCH_HEAD display if --no-write-fetch-head
887952b8c6 ("fetch: optionally allow disabling FETCH_HEAD update",
2020-08-18) introduced the ability to disable writing to FETCH_HEAD
during fetch, but did not suppress the "<source> -> FETCH_HEAD" message
when this ability is used. This message is misleading in this case,
because FETCH_HEAD is not written. Also, because "fetch" is used to
lazy-fetch missing objects in a partial clone, this significantly
clutters up the output in that case since the objects to be fetched are
potentially numerous.

Therefore, suppress this message when --no-write-fetch-head is passed
(but not when --dry-run is set).

59d876ccd6 init: make --separate-git-dir work from within linked worktree
The intention of `git init --separate-work-dir=<path>` is to move the
.git/ directory to a location outside of the main worktree. When used
within a linked worktree, however, rather than moving the .git/
directory as intended, it instead incorrectly moves the worktree's
.git/worktrees/<id> directory to <path>, thus disconnecting the linked
worktree from its parent repository and breaking the worktree in the
process since its local .git file no longer points at a location at
which it can find the object database. Fix this broken behavior.

An intentional side-effect of this change is that it also closes a
loophole not caught by ccf236a23a (init: disallow --separate-git-dir
with bare repository, 2020-08-09) in which the check to prevent
--separate-git-dir being used in conjunction with a bare repository was
unable to detect the invalid combination when invoked from within a
linked worktree. Therefore, add a test to verify that this loophole is
closed, as well.

by making it impossible for them to locate the repository. Fix this by
teaching --separate-git-dir to repair the .git file of each linked
worktree to point at the new repository location.

b214ab5aa5 worktree: teach "repair" to fix outgoing links to worktrees
The .git/worktrees/<id>/gitdir file points at the location of a linked
worktree's .git file. Its content must be of the form
/path/to/worktree/.git (from which the location of the worktree itself
can be derived by stripping the "/.git" suffix). If the gitdir file is
deleted or becomes corrupted or outdated, then Git will be unable to
find the linked worktree. An easy way for the gitdir file to become
outdated is for the user to move the worktree manually (without using
"git worktree move"). Although it is possible to manually update the
gitdir file to reflect the new linked worktree location, doing so
requires a level of knowledge about worktree internals beyond what a
user should be expected to know offhand.

Therefore, teach "git worktree repair" how to repair broken or outdated
.git/worktrees/<id>/gitdir files automatically. (For this to work, the
command must either be invoked from within the worktree whose gitdir
file requires repair, or from within the main or any linked worktree by
providing the path of the broken worktree as an argument to "git
worktree repair".)

59552fb3e2 midx: traverse the local MIDX first
When a repository has an alternate object directory configured, callers
can traverse through each alternate's MIDX by walking the '->next'
pointer.

But, when 'prepare_multi_pack_index_one()' loads multiple MIDXs, it
places the new ones at the front of this pointer chain, not at the end.
This can be confusing for callers such as 'git repack -ad', causing test
failures like in t7700.6 with 'GIT_TEST_MULTI_PACK_INDEX=1'.

The occurs when dropping a pack known to the local MIDX with alternates
configured that have their own MIDX. Since the alternate's MIDX is
returned via 'get_multi_pack_index()', 'midx_contains_pack()' returns
true (which is correct, since it traverses through the '->next' pointer
to find the MIDX in the chain that does contain the requested object).
But, we call 'clear_midx_file()' on 'the_repository', which drops the
MIDX at the path of the first MIDX in the chain, which (in the case of
t7700.6 is the one in the alternate).

This patch addresses that by:

  - placing the local MIDX first in the chain when calling
    'prepare_multi_pack_index_one()', and

  - introducing a new 'get_local_multi_pack_index()', which explicitly
    returns the repository-local MIDX, if any.

Don't impose an additional order on the MIDX's '->next' pointer beyond
that the first item in the chain must be local if one exists so that we
avoid a quadratic insertion.

Likewise, use 'get_local_multi_pack_index()' in
'remove_redundant_pack()' to fix the formerly broken t7700.6 when run
with 'GIT_TEST_MULTI_PACK_INDEX=1'.

Finally, note that the MIDX ordering invariant is only preserved by the
insertion order in 'prepare_packed_git()', which traverses through the
ODB's '->next' pointer, meaning we visit the local object store first.
This fragility makes this an undesirable long-term solution if more
callers are added, but it is acceptable for now since this is the only
caller.

31e8595a11 receive-pack: new config receive.procReceiveRefs
Add a new multi-valued config variable "receive.procReceiveRefs"
for `receive-pack` command, like the follows:

    git config --system --add receive.procReceiveRefs refs/for
    git config --system --add receive.procReceiveRefs refs/drafts

If the specific prefix strings given by the config variables match the
reference names of the commands which are sent from git client to
`receive-pack`, these commands will be executed by an external hook
(named "proc-receive"), instead of the internal `execute_commands`
function.

For example, if it is set to "refs/for", pushing to a reference such as
"refs/for/master" will not create or update reference "refs/for/master",
but may create or update a pull request directly by running the hook
"proc-receive".

Optional modifiers can be provided in the beginning of the value to
filter commands for specific actions: create (a), modify (m),
delete (d). A `!` can be included in the modifiers to negate the
reference prefix entry. E.g.:

    git config --system --add receive.procReceiveRefs ad:refs/heads
    git config --system --add receive.procReceiveRefs !:refs/heads

63518a574a New capability "report-status-v2" for git-push
The new introduced "proc-receive" hook may handle a command for a
pseudo-reference with a zero-old as its old-oid, while the hook may
create or update a reference with different name, different new-oid,
and different old-oid (the reference may exist already with a non-zero
old-oid).  Current "report-status" protocol cannot report the status for
such reference rewrite.

Add new capability "report-status-v2" and new report protocol which is
not backward compatible for report of git-push.

If a user pushes to a pseudo-reference "refs/for/master/topic", and
"receive-pack" creates two new references "refs/changes/23/123/1" and
"refs/changes/24/124/1", for client without the knowledge of
"report-status-v2", "receive-pack" will only send "ok/ng" directives in
the report, such as:

    ok ref/for/master/topic

But for client which has the knowledge of "report-status-v2",
"receive-pack" will use "option" directives to report more attributes
for the reference given by the above "ok/ng" directive.

    ok refs/for/master/topic
    option refname refs/changes/23/123/1
    option new-oid <new-oid>
    ok refs/for/master/topic
    option refname refs/changes/24/124/1
    option new-oid <new-oid>

The client will report two new created references to the end user.

15d3af5e22 receive-pack: add new proc-receive hook
Git calls an internal `execute_commands` function to handle commands
sent from client to `git-receive-pack`.  Regardless of what references
the user pushes, git creates or updates the corresponding references if
the user has write-permission.  A contributor who has no
write-permission, cannot push to the repository directly.  So, the
contributor has to write commits to an alternate location, and sends
pull request by emails or by other ways.  We call this workflow as a
distributed workflow.

It would be more convenient to work in a centralized workflow like what
Gerrit provided for some cases.  For example, a read-only user who
cannot push to a branch directly can run the following `git push`
command to push commits to a pseudo reference (has a prefix "refs/for/",
not "refs/heads/") to create a code review.

    git push origin \
        HEAD:refs/for/<branch-name>/<session>

The `<branch-name>` in the above example can be as simple as "master",
or a more complicated branch name like "foo/bar".  The `<session>` in
the above example command can be the local branch name of the client
side, such as "my/topic".

We cannot implement a centralized workflow elegantly by using
"pre-receive" + "post-receive", because Git will call the internal
function "execute_commands" to create references (even the special
pseudo reference) between these two hooks.  Even though we can delete
the temporarily created pseudo reference via the "post-receive" hook,
having a temporary reference is not safe for concurrent pushes.

So, add a filter and a new handler to support this kind of workflow.
The filter will check the prefix of the reference name, and if the
command has a special reference name, the filter will turn a specific
field (`run_proc_receive`) on for the command.  Commands with this filed
turned on will be executed by a new handler (a hook named
"proc-receive") instead of the internal `execute_commands` function.
We can use this "proc-receive" command to create pull requests or send
emails for code review.

Suggested by Junio, this "proc-receive" hook reads the commands,
push-options (optional), and send result using a protocol in pkt-line
format.  In the following example, the letter "S" stands for
"receive-pack" and letter "H" stands for the hook.

    # Version and features negotiation.
    S: PKT-LINE(version=1\0push-options atomic...)
    S: flush-pkt
    H: PKT-LINE(version=1\0push-options...)
    H: flush-pkt

    # Send commands from server to the hook.
    S: PKT-LINE(<old-oid> <new-oid> <ref>)
    S: ... ...
    S: flush-pkt
    # Send push-options only if the 'push-options' feature is enabled.
    S: PKT-LINE(push-option)
    S: ... ...
    S: flush-pkt

    # Receive result from the hook.
    # OK, run this command successfully.
    H: PKT-LINE(ok <ref>)
    # NO, I reject it.
    H: PKT-LINE(ng <ref> <reason>)
    # Fall through, let 'receive-pack' to execute it.
    H: PKT-LINE(ok <ref>)
    H: PKT-LINE(option fall-through)
    # OK, but has an alternate reference.  The alternate reference name
    # and other status can be given in options
    H: PKT-LINE(ok <ref>)
    H: PKT-LINE(option refname <refname>)
    H: PKT-LINE(option old-oid <old-oid>)
    H: PKT-LINE(option new-oid <new-oid>)
    H: PKT-LINE(option forced-update)
    H: ... ...
    H: flush-pkt

After receiving a command, the hook will execute the command, and may
create/update different reference.  For example, a command for a pseudo
reference "refs/for/master/topic" may create/update different reference
such as "refs/pull/123/head".  The alternate reference name and other
status are given in option lines.

The list of commands returned from "proc-receive" will replace the
relevant commands that are sent from user to "receive-pack", and
"receive-pack" will continue to run the "execute_commands" function and
other routines.  Finally, the result of the execution of these commands
will be reported to end user.

The reporting function from "receive-pack" to "send-pack" will be
extended in latter commit just like what the "proc-receive" hook reports
to "receive-pack".

d79b145569 t7421: eliminate 'grep' check in t7421.4 for mingw compatibility
The 'grep' check in test 4 of t7421 resulted in the failure of t7421 on
Windows due to a different error message

    error: cannot spawn git: No such file or directory

instead of

    fatal: exec 'rev-parse': cd to 'my-subm' failed: No such file or directory

Tighten up the check to compute 'src_abbrev' by guarding the
'verify_submodule_committish()' call using `p->status !='D'`, so that
the former isn't called in case of non-existent submodule directory,
consequently, there is no such error message on any execution
environment. The same need not be implemented for 'dst_abbrev' and is
rather redundant since the conditional 'if (S_ISGITLINK(p->mod_dst))'
already guards the 'verify_submodule_committish()' when we have a
status of 'D'.

Therefore, eliminate the 'grep' check in t7421. Instead, verify the
absence of an error message by doing a 'test_must_be_empty' on the
file containing the error.

e8e1ff24c5 worktree: add skeleton "repair" command
Worktree administrative files can become corrupted or outdated due to
external factors. Although, it is often possible to recover from such
situations by hand-tweaking these files, doing so requires intimate
knowledge of worktree internals. While information necessary to make
such repairs manually can be obtained from git-worktree.txt and
gitrepository-layout.txt, we can assist users more directly by teaching
git-worktree how to repair its administrative files itself (at least to
some extent). Therefore, add a "git worktree repair" command which
attempts to correct common problems which may arise due to factors
beyond Git's control.

At this stage, the "repair" command is a mere skeleton; subsequent
commits will flesh out the functionality.

e08f7bb093 builtin/repack.c: invalidate MIDX only when necessary
In 525e18c04b (midx: clear midx on repack, 2018-07-12), 'git repack'
learned to remove a multi-pack-index file if it added or removed a pack
from the object store.

This mechanism is a little over-eager, since it is only necessary to
drop a MIDX if 'git repack' removes a pack that the MIDX references.
Adding a pack outside of the MIDX does not require invalidating the
MIDX, and likewise for removing a pack the MIDX does not know about.

Teach 'git repack' to check for this by loading the MIDX, and checking
whether the to-be-removed pack is known to the MIDX. This requires a
slightly odd alternation to a test in t5319, which is explained with a
comment. A new test is added to show that the MIDX is left alone when
both packs known to it are marked as .keep, but two packs unknown to it
are removed and combined into one new pack.

This is refactoring 2 of 2 to simplify struct base_data.

Whenever we make a struct base_data, immediately calculate its delta
children. This eliminates confusion as to when the
{ref,ofs}_{first,last} fields are initialized.

Before this patch, the delta children were calculated at the last
possible moment. This allowed the members of struct base_data to be
populated in any order, superficially useful when we have the object
contents before the struct object_entry. But this makes reasoning about
the state of struct base_data more complicated, hence this patch.

a7f7e84a49 index-pack: remove redundant child field
This is refactoring 1 of 2 to simplify struct base_data.

In index-pack, each thread maintains a doubly-linked list of the delta
chain that it is currently processing (the "base" and "child" pointers
in struct base_data). When a thread exceeds the delta base cache limit
and needs to reclaim memory, it uses the "child" pointers to traverse
the lineage, reclaiming the memory of the eldest delta bases first.

A subsequent patch will perform memory reclaiming in a different way and
will thus no longer need the "child" pointer. Because the "child"
pointer is redundant even now, remove it so that the aforementioned
subsequent patch will be clearer. In the meantime, reclaim memory in the
reverse order of the "base" pointers.

bfda204ade checkout, restore: make pathspec recursive
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.

fbff95b67f index-pack: adjust default threading cap
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.

a3894aad67 rebase -i: support --ignore-date
Rebase is implemented with two different backends - 'apply' and
'merge' each of which support a different set of options. In
particular the apply backend supports a number of options implemented
by 'git am' that are not implemented in the merge backend. This means
that the available options are different depending on which backend is
used which is confusing. This patch adds support for the --ignore-date
option to the merge backend. This option uses the current time as the
author date rather than reusing the original author date when
rewriting commits. We take care to handle the combination of
--ignore-date and --committer-date-is-author-date in the same way as
the apply backend.

eceba53214 dir: fix problematic API to avoid memory leaks
The dir structure seemed to have a number of leaks and problems around
it.  First I noticed that parent_hashmap and recursive_hashmap were
being leaked (though Peff noticed and submitted fixes before me).  Then
I noticed in the previous commit that clear_directory() was only taking
responsibility for a subset of fields within dir_struct, despite the
fact that entries[] and ignored[] we allocated internally to dir.c.
That, of course, resulted in many callers either leaking or haphazardly
trying to free these arrays and their contents.

Digging further, I found that despite the pretty clear documentation
near the top of dir.h that folks were supposed to call clear_directory()
when the user no longer needed the dir_struct, there were four callers
that didn't bother doing that at all.  However, two of them clearly
thought about leaks since they had an UNLEAK(dir) directive, which to me
suggests that the method to free the data was too unclear.  I suspect
the non-obviousness of the API and its holes led folks to avoid it,
which then snowballed into further problems with the entries[],
ignored[], parent_hashmap, and recursive_hashmap problems.

Rename clear_directory() to dir_clear() to be more in line with other
data structures in git, and introduce a dir_init() to handle the
suggested memsetting of dir_struct to all zeroes.  I hope that a name
like "dir_clear()" is more clear, and that the presence of dir_init()
will provide a hint to those looking at the code that they need to look
for either a dir_clear() or a dir_free() and lead them to find
dir_clear().

dad4f23ce5 dir: make clear_directory() free all relevant memory
The calling convention for the dir API is supposed to end with a call to
clear_directory() to free up no longer needed memory.  However,
clear_directory() didn't free dir->entries or dir->ignored.  I believe
this was an oversight, but a number of callers noticed memory leaks and
started free'ing these.  Unfortunately, they did so somewhat haphazardly
(sometimes freeing the entries in the arrays, and sometimes only
free'ing the arrays themselves).  This suggests the callers weren't
trying to make sure any possible memory used might be free'd, but just
the memory they noticed their usecase definitely had allocated.

Fix this mess by moving all the duplicated free'ing logic into
clear_directory().  End by resetting dir to a pristine state so it could
be reused if desired.

abcb7eeb31 fetch: only populate existing_refs if needed
In "fetch", get_ref_map() iterates over all refs to populate
"existing_refs" in order to populate peer_ref->old_oid in the returned
refmap, even if the refmap has no peer_ref set - which is the case when
only literal hashes (i.e. no refs by name) are fetched.

Iterating over refs causes the targets of those refs to be checked for
existence. Avoiding this is especially important when we use "git fetch"
to perform lazy fetches in a partial clone because a target of such a
ref may need to be itself lazy-fetched (and otherwise causing an
infinite loop).

Therefore, avoid populating "existing_refs" until necessary. With this
patch, because Git lazy-fetches objects by literal hashes (to be done in
a subsequent commit), it will then be able to guarantee avoiding reading
targets of refs.

e5b942136e fetch: avoid reading submodule config until needed
In "fetch", there are two parameters submodule_fetch_jobs_config and
recurse_submodules that can be set in a variety of ways: through
.gitmodules, through .git/config, and through the command line.
Currently "fetch" handles this by first reading .gitmodules, then
reading .git/config (allowing it to overwrite existing values), then
reading the command line (allowing it to overwrite existing values).

Notice that we can avoid reading .gitmodules if .git/config and/or the
command line already provides us with what we need. In addition, if
recurse_submodules is found to be "no", we do not need the value of
submodule_fetch_jobs_config.

Avoiding reading .gitmodules is especially important when we use "git
fetch" to perform lazy fetches in a partial clone because the
.gitmodules file itself might need to be lazy fetched (and otherwise
causing an infinite loop).

In light of all this, avoid reading .gitmodules until necessary. When
reading it, we may only need one of the two parameters it provides, so
teach fetch_config_from_gitmodules() to support NULL arguments. With
this patch, users (including Git itself when invoking "git fetch" to
lazy-fetch) will be able to guarantee avoiding reading .gitmodules by
passing --recurse-submodules=no.

887952b8c6 fetch: optionally allow disabling FETCH_HEAD update
If you run fetch but record the result in remote-tracking branches,
and either if you do nothing with the fetched refs (e.g. you are
merely mirroring) or if you always work from the remote-tracking
refs (e.g. you fetch and then merge origin/branchname separately),
you can get away with having no FETCH_HEAD at all.

Teach "git fetch" a command line option "--[no-]write-fetch-head".
The default is to write FETCH_HEAD, and the option is primarily
meant to be used with the "--no-" prefix to override this default,
because there is no matching fetch.writeFetchHEAD configuration
variable to flip the default to off (in which case, the positive
form may become necessary to defeat it).

Note that under "--dry-run" mode, FETCH_HEAD is never written;
otherwise you'd see list of objects in the file that you do not
actually have.  Passing `--write-fetch-head` does not force `git
fetch` to write the file.

A couple of functions that used struct refspec_item did not zero out the
structure memory. This can result in unexpected behavior, especially if
additional parameters are ever added to refspec_item in the future. Use
memset to ensure that unset structure members are zero.

It may make sense to convert most of these uses of struct refspec_item
to use either struct initializers or refspec_item_init_or_die. However,
other similar code uses memset. Converting all of these uses has been
left as a future exercise.

f1de981e8b config: fix leaks from git_config_get_string_const()
There are two functions to get a single config string:

  - git_config_get_string()

  - git_config_get_string_const()

One might naively think that the first one allocates a new string and
the second one just points us to the internal configset storage. But
in fact they both allocate a new copy; the second one exists only to
avoid having to cast when using it with a const global which we never
intend to free.

The documentation for the function explains that clearly, but it seems
I'm not alone in being surprised by this. Of 17 calls to the function,
13 of them leak the resulting value.

We could obviously fix these by adding the appropriate free(). But it
would be simpler still if we actually had a non-allocating way to get
the string. There's git_config_get_value() but that doesn't quite do
what we want. If the config key is present but is a boolean with no
value (e.g., "[foo]bar" in the file), then we'll get NULL (whereas the
string versions will print an error and die).

So let's introduce a new variant, git_config_get_string_tmp(), that
behaves as these callers expect. We need a new name because we have new
semantics but the same function signature (so even if we converted the
four remaining callers, topics in flight might be surprised). The "tmp"
is because this value should only be held onto for a short time. In
practice it's rare for us to clear and refresh the configset,
invalidating the pointer, but hopefully the "tmp" makes callers think
about the lifetime. In each of the converted cases here the value only
needs to last within the local function or its immediate caller.

9101c8ea2d submodule--helper: use strbuf_release() to free strbufs
The prepare_to_clone_next_submodule() function has a few local-variable
strbufs. We use strbuf_reset() throughout the function to reuse the
buffers over and over. But at the end of the function we also use

their heap buffers. This should be strbuf_release() instead.

These were introduced by 48308681b0 (git submodule update: have a

the same mistake elsewhere. Likewise, I looked for other instances of

3e19816dc0 ls-remote: simplify UNLEAK() usage
We UNLEAK() the "sorting" list created by parsing command-line options
(which is essentially used until the program exits). But we do so right
before leaving the cmd_ls_remote() function, which means we have to hit
all of the exits. But the point of UNLEAK() is that it's an annotation
which doesn't impact the variable itself. We can mark it as soon as
we're done writing its value, and then we only have to do so once.

This gives us a minor code reduction, and serves as a better example of
how UNLEAK() can be used.

b5dd96b70a make credential helpers builtins
There's no real reason for credential helpers to be separate binaries. I
did them this way originally under the notion that helper don't _need_
to be part of Git, and so can be built totally separately (and indeed,
the ones in contrib/credential are). But the ones in our main Makefile
build on libgit.a, and the resulting binaries are reasonably large.

We can slim down our total disk footprint by just making them builtins.
This reduces the size of:

  make strip install

from 29MB to 24MB on my Debian system.

Note that credential-cache can't operate without support for Unix
sockets. Currently we just don't build it at all when NO_UNIX_SOCKETS is
set. We could continue that with conditionals in the Makefile and our
list of builtins. But instead, let's build a dummy implementation that
dies with an informative message. That has two advantages:

  - it's simpler, because the conditional bits are all kept inside
    the credential-cache source

  - a user who is expecting it to exist will be told _why_ they can't
    use it, rather than getting the "credential-cache is not a git
    command" error which makes it look like the Git install is broken.

Note that our dummy implementation does still respond to "-h" in order
to appease t0012 (and this may be a little friendlier for users, as
well).

e83e3333b5 submodule: port submodule subcommand 'summary' from shell to C
Convert submodule subcommand 'summary' to a builtin and call it via
'git-submodule.sh'.

The shell version had to call $diff_cmd twice, once to find the modified
modules cared by the user and then again, with that list of modules
to do various operations for computing the summary of those modules.
On the other hand, the C version does not need a second call to
$diff_cmd since it reuses the module list from the first call to do the
aforementioned tasks.

In the C version, we use the combination of setting a child process'
working directory to the submodule path and then calling
'prepare_submodule_repo_env()' which also sets the 'GIT_DIR' to '.git',
so that we can be certain that those spawned processes will not access
the superproject's ODB by mistake.

A behavioural difference between the C and the shell version is that the
shell version outputs two line feeds after the 'git log' output when run
outside of the tests while the C version outputs one line feed in any
case. The reason for this is that the shell version calls log with
'--pretty=format:<fmt>' whose output is followed by two echo
calls; 'format' does not have "terminator" semantics like its 'tformat'
counterpart. So, the log output is terminated by a newline only when
invoked by the user and not when invoked from the scripts. This results
in the one & two line feed differences in the shell version.
On the other hand, the C version calls log with '--pretty=<fmt>'
which is equivalent to '--pretty:tformat:<fmt>' which is then
followed by a 'printf("\n")'. Due to its "terminator" semantics the
log output is always terminated by newline and hence one line feed in
any case.

Also, when we try to pass an option-like argument after a non-option
argument, for instance:

    git submodule summary HEAD --foo-bar

    (or)

    git submodule summary HEAD --cached

That argument would be treated like a path to the submodule for which
the user is requesting a summary. So, the option ends up having no
effect. Though, passing '--quiet' is an exception to this:

    git submodule summary HEAD --quiet

While 'summary' doesn't support '--quiet', we don't get an output for
the above command as '--quiet' is treated as a path which means we get
an output only if a submodule whose path is '--quiet' exists.

The error message in case of computing a summary for non-existent
submodules in the C version is different from that of the shell version.
Since the new error message is not marked for translation, change the
'test_i18ngrep' in t7421.4 to 'grep'.

4339259d5f Merge branch 'en/eol-attrs-gotchas'
All "mergy" operations that internally use the merge-recursive
machinery should honor the merge.renormalize configuration, but
many of them didn't.

* en/eol-attrs-gotchas:
  checkout: support renormalization with checkout -m <paths>
  merge: make merge.renormalize work for all uses of merge machinery
  t6038: remove problematic test
  t6038: make tests fail for the right reason

46b225f153 Merge branch 'jk/strvec'
The argv_array API is useful for not just managing argv but any
"vector" (NULL-terminated array) of strings, and has seen adoption
to a certain degree.  It has been renamed to "strvec" to reduce the
barrier to adoption.

* jk/strvec:
  strvec: rename struct fields
  strvec: drop argv_array compatibility layer
  strvec: update documention to avoid argv_array
  strvec: fix indentation in renamed calls
  strvec: convert remaining callers away from argv_array name
  strvec: convert more callers away from argv_array name
  strvec: convert builtin/ callers away from argv_array name
  quote: rename sq_dequote_to_argv_array to mention strvec
  strvec: rename files from argv-array to strvec
  argv-array: rename to strvec
  argv-array: use size_t for count and alloc

ccf236a23a init: disallow --separate-git-dir with bare repository
The purpose of "git init --separate-git-dir" is to separate the
repository from the worktree. This is true even when --separate-git-dir
is used on an existing worktree, in which case, it moves the .git/
subdirectory to a new location outside the worktree.

However, an outright bare repository (such as one created by "git init
--bare"), has no worktree, so using --separate-git-dir to separate it
from its non-existent worktree is nonsensical. Therefore, make it an
error to use --separate-git-dir on a bare repository.

Implementation note: "git init" considers a repository bare if told so
explicitly via --bare or if it guesses it to be so based upon
heuristics. In the explicit --bare case, a conflict with
--separate-git-dir is easy to detect early. In the guessed case,
however, the conflict can only be detected once "bareness" is guessed,
which happens after "git init" has begun creating the repository.
Technically, we can get by with a single late check which would cover
both cases, however, erroring out early, when possible, without leaving
detritus provides a better user experience.

ad464a4e84 bisect: combine args passed to find_bisection()
Now that find_bisection() accepts multiple boolean arguments, these may
be combined into a single unsigned integer in order to declutter some of
the code in bisect.c

Also, rename the existing "flags" bitfield to "commit_flags", to
explicitly differentiate it from the new "bisect_flags" bitfield.

e8861ffc20 bisect: introduce first-parent flag
Upon seeing a merge commit when bisecting, this option may be used to
follow only the first parent.

In detecting regressions introduced through the merging of a branch, the
merge commit will be identified as introduction of the bug and its
ancestors will be ignored.

This option is particularly useful in avoiding false positives when a
merged branch contained broken or non-buildable commits, but the merge
itself was OK.

be5fe2000d cmd_bisect__helper: defer parsing no-checkout flag
cmd_bisect__helper() is intended as a temporary shim layer serving as an
interface for git-bisect.sh. This function and git-bisect.sh should
eventually be replaced by a C implementation, cmd_bisect(), serving as
an entrypoint for all "git bisect ..." shell commands: cmd_bisect() will
only parse the first token following "git bisect", and dispatch the
remaining args to the appropriate function ["bisect_start()",
"bisect_next()", etc.].

Thus, cmd_bisect__helper() should not be responsible for parsing flags
like --no-checkout. Instead, let the --no-checkout flag remain in the
argv array, so it may be evaluated alongside the other options already
parsed by bisect_start().

9eb86f41de fsck: do not lazy fetch known non-promisor object
There is a call to has_object_file(), which lazily fetches missing
objects in a partial clone, when the object is known to not be
a promisor object. Change that call to has_object(), which does not do
any lazy fetching.

ee47243d76 pack-objects: no fetch when allow-{any,promisor}
The options --missing=allow-{any,promisor} were introduced in caf3827e2f
("rev-list: add list-objects filtering support", 2017-11-22) with the
following note in the commit message:

    This patch introduces handling of missing objects to help
    debugging and development of the "partial clone" mechanism,
    and once the mechanism is implemented, for a power user to
    perform operations that are missing-object aware without
    incurring the cost of checking if a missing link is expected.

The idea that these options are missing-object aware (and thus do not
need to lazily fetch objects, unlike unaware commands that assume that
all objects are present) are assumed in later commits such as 07ef3c6604
("fetch test: use more robust test for filtered objects", 2020-01-15).

However, the current implementations of these options use
has_object_file(), which indeed lazily fetches missing objects. Teach
these implementations not to do so. Also, update the documentation of
these options to be clearer.

0371a764d2 help: drop usage of 'common' and 'useful' for guides
Since 1b81d8cb19 (help: use command-list.txt for the source of guides,
2018-05-20), all man5/man7 guides listed in command-list.txt appear in
the output of 'git help -g'.

However, 'git help -g' still prefixes this list with "The common Git
guides are:", which makes one wonder if there are others!

In the same spirit, the man page for 'git help' describes the '--guides'
option as listing 'useful' guides, which is not false per se but can
also be taken to mean that there are other guides that exist but are not
useful.

Instead of 'common' and 'useful', use 'Git concept guides' in both
places. To keep the code in line with this change, rename
help.c::list_common_guides_help to list_guides_help.
