Partial clone support of "git clone" has been updated to correctly
validate the objects it receives from the other side. The server
side has been corrected to send objects that are directly
requested, even if they may match the filtering criteria (e.g. when
doing a "lazy blob" partial clone).
* jt/partial-clone-fsck-connectivity:
clone: check connectivity even if clone is partial
upload-pack: send refs' objects despite "filter"
"git fetch" failed to correctly validate the set of objects it
received when making a shallow history deeper, which has been
corrected.

fetch-pack: write shallow, then check connectivity
fetch-pack: implement ref-in-want

"git rebase" behaved slightly differently depending on which one of
the three backends gets used; this has been documented and an

The final pair of chunks for the multi-pack-index file stores the object
offsets. We default to using 32-bit offsets as in the pack-index version
1 format, but if there exists an offset larger than 32-bits, we use a
trick similar to the pack-index version 2 format by storing all offsets
at least 2^31 in a 64-bit table; we use the 32-bit table to point into
that 64-bit table as necessary.
We only store these 64-bit offsets if necessary, so create a test that
manipulates a version 2 pack-index to fake a large offset. This allows
us to test that the large offset table is created, but the data does not
match the actual packfile offsets. The multi-pack-index offset does match
the (corrupted) pack-index offset, so a future feature will compare these
offsets during a 'verify' step.

The multi-pack-index needs to track which packfiles it indexes. Store
these in our first required chunk. Since filenames are not well
structured, add padding to keep good alignment in later chunks.
Modify the 'git multi-pack-index read' subcommand to output the
existence of the pack-file name chunk. Modify t5319-multi-pack-index.sh
to reflect this new output and the new expected number of chunks.
Defense in depth: A pattern we are using in the multi-pack-index feature
is to verify the data as we write it. We want to ensure we never write
invalid data to the multi-pack-index. There are many checks that verify
that the values we are writing fit the format definitions. This mainly
helps developers while working on the feature, but it can also identify
issues that only appear when dealing with very large data sets. These
large sets are hard to encode into test cases.

The multi-pack-index feature generalizes the existing pack-index
feature by indexing objects across multiple pack-files.
Describe the basic file format, using a 12-byte header followed by
a lookup table for a list of "chunks" which will be described later.
The file ends with a footer containing a checksum using the hash
algorithm.
The header allows later versions to create breaking changes by
advancing the version number. We can also change the hash algorithm
using a different version value.
We will add the individual chunk format information as we introduce
the code that writes that information.

A filter line in a request to upload-pack filters out objects regardless
of whether they are directly referenced by a "want" line or not. This
means that cloning with "--filter=blob:none" (or another filter that
excludes blobs) from a repository with at least one ref pointing to a
blob (for example, the Git repository itself) results in output like the
following:
error: missing object referenced by 'refs/tags/junio-gpg-pub'
and if that particular blob is not referenced by a fetched tree, the
resulting clone fails fsck because there is no object from the remote to
vouch that the missing object is a promisor object.
Update both the protocol and the upload-pack implementation to include
all explicitly specified "want" objects in the packfile regardless of
the filter specification.

The commit-graph feature shipped in Git 2.18 has some inconsistencies in
the constants used by the implementation and specified by the format
document.
The commit data chunk uses the key "CDAT" in the file format, but was
previously documented to say "CGET".
The commit data chunk stores commit parents using two 32-bit fields that
typically store the integer position of the parent in the list of commit
ids within the commit-graph file. When a parent does not exist, we had
documented the value 0xffffffff, but implemented the value 0x70000000.
This swap is easy to correct in the documentation, but unfortunately
reduces the number of commits that we can store in the commit-graph.
Update that estimate, too.

Currently, while performing packfile negotiation, clients are only
allowed to specify their desired objects using object ids. This causes
a vulnerability to failure when an object turns non-existent during
negotiation, which may happen if, for example, the desired repository is
provided by multiple Git servers in a load-balancing arrangement and
there exists replication delay.
In order to eliminate this vulnerability, implement the ref-in-want
feature for the 'fetch' command in protocol version 2. This feature
enables the 'fetch' command to support requests in the form of ref names
through a new "want-ref <ref>" parameter. At the conclusion of
negotiation, the server will send a list of all of the wanted references
(as provided by "want-ref" lines) in addition to the generated packfile.

Change the output emitted when an ambiguous object is encountered so
that we show tags first, then commits, followed by trees, and finally
blobs. Within each type we show objects in hashcmp() order. Before
this change the objects were only ordered by hashcmp().
The reason for doing this is that the output looks better as a result,
e.g. the v2.17.0 tag before this change on "git show e8f2" would
display:
hint: The candidates are:
hint: e8f2093055 tree
hint: e8f21caf94 commit 2013-06-24 - bash prompt: print unique detached HEAD abbreviated object name
hint: e8f21d02f7 blob

hint: e8f2a35526 blob
hint: e8f2bc0c06 commit 2015-05-10 - Documentation: note behavior for multiple remote.url entries
hint: e8f2cf6ec0 tree
Now we'll instead show:
hint: e8f2650052 tag v2.17.0
hint: e8f21caf94 commit 2013-06-24 - bash prompt: print unique detached HEAD abbreviated object name
hint: e8f26250fa commit 2017-02-03 - Merge pull request #996 from jeffhostetler/jeffhostetler/register_rename_src
hint: e8f2bc0c06 commit 2015-05-10 - Documentation: note behavior for multiple remote.url entries

hint: e8f21d02f7 blob
hint: e8f21d577c blob
hint: e8f2867228 blob
hint: e8f2a35526 blob
Since we show the commit data in the output that's nicely aligned once
we sort by object type. The decision to show tags before commits is
pretty arbitrary. I don't want to order by object_type since there
tags come last after blobs, which doesn't make sense if we want to
show the most important things first.
I could display them after commits, but it's much less likely that
we'll display a tag, so if there is one it makes sense to show it
prominently at the top.
A note on the implementation: Derrick rightly pointed out[1] that
we're bending over backwards here in get_short_oid() to first
de-duplicate the list, and then emit it, but could simply do it in one
step.
The reason for that is that oid_array_for_each_unique() doesn't
actually require that the array be sorted by oid_array_sort(), it just
needs to be sorted in some order that guarantees that all objects with
the same ID are adjacent to one another, which (barring a hash
collision, which'll be someone else's problem) the sort_ambiguous()
function does.
I agree that would be simpler for this code, and had forgotten why I
initially wrote it like this[2]. But on further reflection I think
it's better to do more work here just so we're not underhandedly using
the oid-array API where we lie about the list being sorted. That would
break any subsequent use of oid_array_lookup() in subtle ways.
I could get around that by hacking the API itself to support this
use-case and documenting it, which I did as a WIP patch in [3], but I
think it's too much code smell just for this one call site. It's
simpler for the API to just introduce a oid_array_for_each() function
to eagerly spew out the list without sorting or de-duplication, and
then do the de-duplication and sorting in two passes.

fetch-pack: restore save_commit_buffer after use
unpack-trees: batch fetching of missing blobs
clone: partial clone
partial-clone: define partial clone settings in config
fetch: support filters
fetch: refactor calculation of remote list
fetch-pack: test support excluding large blobs
fetch-pack: add --no-filter
fetch-pack, index-pack, transport: partial clone
upload-pack: add object filtering for partial clone
In preparation for implementing narrow/partial clone, the machinery
for checking object connectivity used by gc and fsck has been
taught that a missing object is OK when it is referenced by a
packfile specially marked as coming from trusted repository that
promises to make them available on-demand and lazily.
* jh/fsck-promisors:
gc: do not repack promisor packfiles
rev-list: support termination at promisor objects
sha1_file: support lazily fetching missing objects
introduce fetch-object: fetch one promisor object
index-pack: refactor writing of .keep files
fsck: support promisor objects as CLI argument
fsck: support referenced promisor objects
fsck: support refs pointing to promisor objects
fsck: introduce partialclone extension
extension.partialclone: introduce partial clone extension
Convert the declaration and definition of pretend_sha1_file to use
struct object_id and adjust all usages of this function. Rename it to
pretend_object_file.

Separating out the implementation of the handshake when starting a
long-running subprocess (for example, as is done for a clean/smudge
filter) was done in commit fa64a2fdbe ("sub-process: refactor
handshake to common function", 2017-07-26), but its documentation still
resides in gitattributes. Split out the documentation as well.

Teach upload-pack to negotiate object filtering over the protocol and
to send filter parameters to pack-objects. This is intended for partial
clone and fetch.
The idea to make upload-pack configurable using uploadpack.allowFilter
comes from Jonathan Tan's work in [1].

A new mechanism to upgrade the wire protocol in place is proposed
and demonstrated that it works with the older versions of Git
without harming them.
* bw/protocol-v1:
Documentation: document Extra Parameters
ssh: introduce a 'simple' ssh variant
i5700: add interop test for protocol transition
http: tell server that the client understands v1
connect: tell server that the client understands v1
connect: teach client to recognize v1 server response
upload-pack, receive-pack: introduce protocol version 1
daemon: recognize hidden request arguments
protocol: introduce protocol extension mechanisms
pkt-line: add packet_write function

but "up to date" after it. Don't change plumbing (specifically
send-pack.c, but transport.c (git push) also has the same string).
This was produced by grepping for "up-to-date" and "up to date". It

The "tag.pager" configuration variable was useless for those who
actually create tag objects, as it interfered with the use of an
editor. A new mechanism has been introduced for commands to enable
pager depending on what operation is being carried out to fix this,
and then "git tag -l" is made to run pager by default.
* ma/pager-per-subcommand-action:
git.c: ignore pager.* when launching builtin as dashed external
tag: change default of `pager.tag` to "on"
tag: respect `pager.tag` in list-mode only
t7006: add tests for how git tag paginates
git.c: provide setup_auto_pager()
git.c: let builtins opt for handling `pager.foo` themselves
builtin.h: take over documentation from api-builtin.txt
The only difference between these is that the former takes an argument
`name` which it ignores completely. Still, the callers are quite careful
to provide reasonable values for it.
Once in-flight topics have landed, we should be able to remove
git_config_maybe_bool. In the meantime, document it as deprecated in the
technical documentation. While at it, document git_parse_maybe_bool.

When we taught read_directory_recursive() to recurse into untracked
directories in search of ignored files given DIR_SHOW_IGNORED_TOO, that
had the side effect of teaching it to collect the untracked contents of
untracked directories. It doesn't always make sense to return these,
though (we do need them for `clean -d`), so we introduce a flag
(DIR_KEEP_UNTRACKED_CONTENTS) to control whether or not read_directory()
strips dir->entries of the untracked contents of untracked dirs.
We also introduce check_contains() to check if one dir_entry corresponds
to a path which contains the path corresponding to another dir_entry.
This also fixes known breakages in t7061, since status --ignored now
searches untracked directories for ignored files.

Some platforms have ulong that is smaller than time_t, and our
historical use of ulong for timestamp would mean they cannot
represent some timestamp that the platform allows. Invent a
