c18b80a0e8 update-index: new options to enable/disable split index mode
If you have a large work tree but only make changes in a subset, then
$GIT_DIR/index's size should be stable after a while. If you change
branches that touch something else, $GIT_DIR/index's size may grow
large that it becomes as slow as the unified index. Do --split-index
again occasionally to force all changes back to the shared index and
keep $GIT_DIR/index small.

b3c96fb158 split-index: strip pathname of on-disk replaced entries
We know the positions of replaced entries via the replace bitmap in
"link" extension, so the "name" path does not have to be stored (it's
still in the shared index). With this, we also have a way to
distinguish additions vs replacements at load time and can catch
broken "link" extensions.

078a58e825 read-cache: mark updated entries for split index
The large part of this patch just follows CE_ENTRY_CHANGED
marks. replace_index_entry() is updated to update
split_index->base->cache[] as well so base->cache[] does not reference
to a freed entry.

5fc2fc8fa2 read-cache: split-index mode
This split-index mode is designed to keep write cost proportional to
the number of changes the user has made, not the size of the work
tree. (Read cost is another matter, to be dealt separately.)

This mode stores index info in a pair of $GIT_DIR/index and
$GIT_DIR/sharedindex.<SHA-1>. sharedindex is large and unchanged over
time while "index" is smaller and updated often. Format details are in
index-format.txt, although not everything is implemented in this
patch.

Shared indexes are not automatically removed, because it's unclear if
the shared index is needed by any (even temporary) indexes by just
looking at it. After a while you'll collect stale shared indexes. The
good news is one shared index is useable for long, until
$GIT_DIR/index becomes too big and sluggish that the new shared index
must be created.

The safest way to clean shared indexes is to turn off split index
mode, so shared files are all garbage, delete them all, then turn on
split index mode again.

Also update SHA-1 after writing. If we do not do that, the second

.git/index again, which is fine, except istate->sha1 now has a stale

7ca36d9398 date: check date overflow against time_t
When we check whether a timestamp has overflowed, we check
only against ULONG_MAX, meaning that strtoul has overflowed.
However, we also feed these timestamps to system functions
like gmtime, which expect a time_t. On many systems, time_t
is actually smaller than "unsigned long" (e.g., because it
is signed), and we would overflow when using these
functions.  We don't know the actual size or signedness of
time_t, but we can easily check for truncation with a simple
assignment.

54457fe509 refname_match(): always use the rules in ref_rev_parse_rules
We used to use two separate rules for the normal ref resolution
dwimming and dwimming done to decide which remote ref to grab.  The
third parameter to refname_match() selected which rules to use.

When these two rules were harmonized in

    2011-11-04 dd621df9cd refs DWIMmery: use the same rule for both "git fetch" and others

, ref_fetch_rules was #defined to avoid potential breakages for
in-flight topics.

It is now safe to remove the backwards-compatibility code, so remove
refname_match()'s third parameter, make ref_rev_parse_rules private to
refs.c, and remove ref_fetch_rules entirely.

safe_create_leading_directories_const(): SCLD_VANISHED.  This value
indicates that a file or directory on the path existed at one point
(either it already existed or the function created it), but then it
disappeared.  This probably indicates that another process deleted the
directory while we were working.  If SCLD_VANISHED is returned, the
caller might want to retry the function call, as there is a chance
that a new attempt will succeed.

Why doesn't safe_create_leading_directories() do the retrying
internally?  Because an empty directory isn't really ever safe until
it holds a file.  So even if safe_create_leading_directories() were
absolutely sure that the directory existed before it returned, there
would be no guarantee that the directory still existed when the caller
tried to write something in it.

0be0521b23 safe_create_leading_directories(): introduce enum for return values
Instead of returning magic integer values (which a couple of callers
go to the trouble of distinguishing), return values from an enum.  Add
a docstring.

5d642e7506 sha1_object_info_extended: provide delta base sha1s
A caller of sha1_object_info_extended technically has enough
information to determine the base sha1 from the results of
the call. It knows the pack, offset, and delta type of the
object, which is sufficient to find the base.

However, the functions to do so are not publicly available,
and the code itself is intimate enough with the pack details
that it should be abstracted away. We could add a public
helper to allow callers to query the delta base separately,
but it is simpler and slightly more efficient to optionally
grab it along with the rest of the object_info data.

For cases where the object is not stored as a delta, we
write the null sha1 into the query field. A careful caller
could check "oi.whence == OI_PACKED && oi.u.packed.is_delta"
before looking at the base sha1, but using the null sha1
provides a simple alternative (and gives a better sanity
check for a non-careful caller than simply returning random
bytes).

de7b5d6218 sha1_object_info_extended(): add an "unsigned flags" parameter
This parameter is not used yet, but it will be used to tell
sha1_object_info_extended() if it should perform object
replacement or not.

bf93eea0f6 sha1_file.c: add lookup_replace_object_extended() to pass flags
Currently, there is only one caller to lookup_replace_object()
that can benefit from passing it some flags, but we expect
that there could be more.
