0be0521b23 safe_create_leading_directories(): introduce enum for return values

9e6f885d14 safe_create_leading_directories(): always restore slash at end of loop
Always restore the slash that we scribbled over at the end of the
loop, rather than also fixing it up at each premature exit from the
loop.  This makes it harder to forget to do the cleanup as new paths
are added to the code.

bf10cf70ad safe_create_leading_directories(): split on first of multiple slashes
If the input path has multiple slashes between path components (e.g.,
"foo//bar"), then the old code was breaking the path at the last
slash, not the first one.  So in the above example, the second slash
was overwritten with NUL, resulting in the parent directory being
sought as "foo/".

When stat() is called on "foo/", it fails with ENOTDIR if "foo" exists
but is not a directory.  This caused the wrong path to be taken in the
subsequent logic.

So instead, split path components at the first intercomponent slash
rather than the last one.

d3d3e4c490 count-objects: recognize .bitmap in garbage-checking
Count-objects will report any "garbage" files in the packs
directory, including files whose extensions it does not
know (case 1), and files whose matching ".pack" file is
missing (case 2).  Without having learned about ".bitmap"
files, the current code reports all such files as garbage
(case 1), even if their pack exists. Instead, they should be
treated as case 2.

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).

491a8dec44 get_max_fd_limit(): fall back to OPEN_MAX upon getrlimit/sysconf failure
On broken systems where RLIMIT_NOFILE is visible by the compliers
but underlying getrlimit() system call does not behave, we used to
simply die() when we are trying to decide how many file descriptors
to allocate for keeping packfiles open.  Instead, allow the fallback
codepath to take over when we get such a failure from getrlimit().

The same issue exists with _SC_OPEN_MAX and sysconf(); restructure
the code in a similar way to prepare for a broken sysconf() as well.

b039718d92 drop support for "experimental" loose objects
In git v1.4.3, we introduced a new loose object format that
encoded some object information outside of the zlib stream.
Ultimately the format was dropped in v1.5.3, but we kept the
reading side around to help people migrate objects. Each
time we open a loose object, we use a heuristic to check
whether it is in the normal loose format, or the
experimental one.

This heuristic is robust in the face of valid data, but it
tends to treat corrupted or garbage data as an experimental
object. With the regular format, we would notice quickly
that zlib's crc does not check out and complain. With the
experimental object, we are likely to extract a nonsensical
object size and try to allocate a huge buffer, resulting in
xmalloc calling "die".

This latter behavior is much worse, for two reasons. One,
git reports an allocation error when the real error is
corruption. And two, the program dies unconditionally, so
you cannot even run fsck (which would otherwise ignore the
broken object and keep going).

We could try to improve the heuristic to err on the side of
normal objects in the face of corruption, but there is
really little point. The experimental format is long-dead,
and was never enabled by default to begin with. We can
instead simply remove it. The only affected repository would
be one that explicitly set core.legacyheaders in 2007, and
then never repacked in the intervening 6 years.

b2476a60bd sha1_file.c:create_tmpfile(): Fix race when creating loose object dirs
There are cases (e.g. when running concurrent fetches in a repo) where
multiple Git processes concurrently attempt to create loose objects
within the same objects/XX/ dir. The creation of the loose object files
is (AFAICS) safe from races, but the creation of the objects/XX/ dir in
which the loose objects reside is unsafe, for example:

Two concurrent fetches - A and B. As part of its fetch, A needs to store
12aaaaa as a loose object. B, on the other hand, needs to store 12bbbbb
as a loose object. The objects/12 directory does not already exist.
Concurrently, both A and B determine that they need to create the
objects/12 directory (because their first call to git_mkstemp_mode()
within create_tmpfile() fails witn ENOENT). One of them - let's say A -
executes the following mkdir() call before the other. This first call
returns success, and A moves on. When B gets around to calling mkdir(),
it fails with EEXIST, because A won the race. The mkdir() error causes B
to return -1 from create_tmpfile(), which propagates all the way,
resulting in the fetch failing with:

  error: unable to create temporary file: File exists
  fatal: failed to write object
  fatal: unpack-objects failed

Although it's hard to add a testcase reproducing this issue, it's easy
to provoke if we insert a sleep after the

  if (mkdir(buffer, 0777) || adjust_shared_perm(buffer))
      return -1;

block, and then run two concurrent "git fetch"es against the same repo.

The fix is to simply handle mkdir() failing with EEXIST as a success.
If EEXIST is somehow returned for the wrong reasons (because the relevant
objects/XX is not a directory, or is otherwise unsuitable for object
storage), the following call to adjust_shared_perm(), or ultimately the
retried call to git_mkstemp_mode() will fail, and we end up returning
error from create_tmpfile() in any case.

Note that there are still cases where two users with unsuitable umasks
in a shared repo can end up in two races where one user first wins the
mkdir() race to create an objects/XX/ directory, and then the other user
wins the adjust_shared_perms() race to chmod() that directory, but fails
because it is (transiently, until the first users completes its chmod())
unwriteable to the other user. However, (an equivalent of) this race also
exists before this patch, and is made no worse by this patch.

3fc0dca9ce sha1_file: move comment about return value where it belongs
Commit 5b0864070 (sha1_object_info_extended: make type calculation
optional, Jul 12 2013) changed the return value of the
sha1_object_info_extended function to 0/-1 for success/error.

Previously this function returned the object type for success or
-1 for error. But unfortunately the above commit forgot to change
or move the comment above this function that says "returns enum
object_type or negative".

To fix this inconsistency, let's move the comment above the
sha1_object_info function where it is still true.

45e8a74873 has_sha1_file: re-check pack directory before giving up
When we read a sha1 file, we first look for a packed
version, then a loose version, and then re-check the pack
directory again before concluding that we cannot find it.
This lets us handle a process that is writing to the
repository simultaneously (e.g., receive-pack writing a new
pack followed by a ref update, or git-repack packing
existing loose objects into a new pack).

However, we do not do the same trick with has_sha1_file; we
only check the packed objects once, followed by loose
objects. This means that we might incorrectly report that we
do not have an object, even though we could find it if we
simply re-checked the pack directory.

By itself, this is usually not a big deal. The other process
is running simultaneously, so we may run has_sha1_file
before it writes, anyway. It is a race whether we see the
object or not.  However, we may also see other things
the writing process has done (like updating refs); and in
that case, we must be able to also see the new objects.

For example, imagine we are doing a for_each_ref iteration,
and somebody simultaneously pushes. Receive-pack may write
the pack and update a ref after we have examined the
objects/pack directory, but before the iteration gets to the
updated ref. When we do finally see the updated ref,
for_each_ref will call has_sha1_file to check whether the
ref is broken. If has_sha1_file returns the wrong answer, we
erroneously will think that the ref is broken.

For a normal iteration without DO_FOR_EACH_INCLUDE_BROKEN,
this means that the caller does not see the ref at all
(neither the old nor the new value).  So not only will we
fail to see the new value of the ref (which is acceptable,
since we are running simultaneously with the writer, and we
might well read the ref before the writer commits its
write), but we will not see the old value either. For
programs that act on reachability like pack-objects or
prune, this can cause data loss, as we may see the objects
referenced by the original ref value as dangling (and either
omit them from the pack, or delete them via prune).

There's no test included here, because the success case is
two processes running simultaneously forever. But you can
replicate the issue with:

  # base.sh
  # run this in one terminal; it creates and pushes
  # repeatedly to a repository
  git init parent &&
  (cd parent &&

    # create a base commit that will trigger us looking at
    # the objects/pack directory before we hit the updated ref
    echo content >file &&
    git add file &&
    git commit -m base &&

    # set the unpack limit abnormally low, which
    # lets us simulate full-size pushes using tiny ones
    git config receive.unpackLimit 1
  ) &&
  git clone parent child &&
  cd child &&
  n=0 &&
  while true; do
    echo $n >file && git add file && git commit -m $n &&
    git push origin HEAD:refs/remotes/child/master &&
    n=$(($n + 1))
  done

  # fsck.sh
  # now run this simultaneously in another terminal; it
  # repeatedly fscks, looking for us to consider the
  # newly-pushed ref broken. We cannot use for-each-ref
  # here, as it uses DO_FOR_EACH_INCLUDE_BROKEN, which
  # skips the has_sha1_file check (and if it wants
  # more information on the object, it will actually read
  # the object, which does the proper two-step lookup)
  cd parent &&
  while true; do
    broken=`git fsck 2>&1 | grep remotes/child`
    if test -n "$broken"; then
      echo $broken
      exit 1
    fi
  done

Without this patch, the fsck loop fails within a few seconds
(and almost instantly if the test repository actually has a
large number of refs). With it, the two can run
indefinitely.

7c3ecb3254 Don't close pack fd when free'ing pack windows
Now that close_one_pack() has been introduced to handle file
descriptor pressure, it is not strictly necessary to close the
pack file descriptor in unuse_one_window() when we're under memory
pressure.

Jeff King provided a justification for leaving the pack file open:

   If you close packfile descriptors, you can run into racy situations
   where somebody else is repacking and deleting packs, and they go away
   while you are trying to access them. If you keep a descriptor open,
   you're fine; they last to the end of the process. If you don't, then
   they disappear from under you.

   For normal object access, this isn't that big a deal; we just rescan
   the packs and retry. But if you are packing yourself (e.g., because
   you are a pack-objects started by upload-pack for a clone or fetch),
   it's much harder to recover (and we print some warnings).

Let's do so (or uh, not do so).

88d0db5557 sha1_file: introduce close_one_pack() to close packs on fd pressure
When the number of open packs exceeds pack_max_fds, unuse_one_window()
is called repeatedly to attempt to release the least-recently-used
pack windows, which, as a side-effect, will also close a pack file
after closing its last open window.  If a pack file has been opened,
but no windows have been allocated into it, it will never be selected
by unuse_one_window() and hence its file descriptor will not be
closed.  When this happens, git may exceed the number of file
descriptors permitted by the system.

This latter situation can occur in show-ref or receive-pack during ref
advertisement.  During ref advertisement, receive-pack will iterate
over every ref in the repository and advertise it to the client after
ensuring that the ref exists in the local repository.  If the ref is
located inside a pack, then the pack is opened to ensure that it
exists, but since the object is not actually read from the pack, no
mmap windows are allocated.  When the number of open packs exceeds
pack_max_fds, unuse_one_window() will not be able to find any windows to
free and will not be able to close any packs.  Once the per-process
file descriptor limit is exceeded, receive-pack will produce a warning,
not an error, for each pack it cannot open, and will then most likely
fail with an error to spawn rev-list or index-pack like:

   error: cannot create standard input pipe for rev-list: Too many open files
   error: Could not run 'git rev-list'

This may also occur during upload-pack when refs are packed (in the
packed-refs file) and the number of packs that must be opened to
verify that these packed refs exist exceeds the file descriptor
limit.  If the refs are loose, then upload-pack will read each ref
from the object database (if the object is in a pack, allocating one
or more mmap windows for it) in order to peel tags and advertise the
underlying object.  But when the refs are packed and peeled,
upload-pack will use the peeled sha1 in the packed-refs file and
will not need to read from the pack files, so no mmap windows will
be allocated and just like with receive-pack, unuse_one_window()
will never select these opened packs to close.

When we have file descriptor pressure, we just need to find an open
pack to close.  We can leave the existing mmap windows open.  If
additional windows need to be mapped into the pack file, it will be
reopened when necessary.  If the pack file has been rewritten in the
mean time, open_packed_git_1() should notice when it compares the file
size or the pack's sha1 checksum to what was previously read from the
pack index, and reject it.

Let's introduce a new function close_one_pack() designed specifically
for this purpose to search for and close the least-recently-used pack,
where LRU is defined as (in order of preference):

   * pack with oldest mtime and no allocated mmap windows
   * pack with the least-recently-used windows, i.e. the pack
     with the oldest most-recently-used window, where none of
     the windows are in use
   * pack with the least-recently-used windows

d099b7173d Fix some sparse warnings
Sparse issues some "Using plain integer as NULL pointer" warnings.
Each warning relates to the use of an '{0}' initialiser expression
in the declaration of an 'struct object_info'. The first field of
this structure has pointer type. Thus, in order to suppress these
warnings, we replace the initialiser expression with '{NULL}'.

We take in a "struct object_info" which contains pointers to

than pass the whole object to the low-level loose/packed

5b0864070e sha1_object_info_extended: make type calculation optional
Each caller of sha1_object_info_extended sets up an
object_info struct to tell the function which elements of
the object it wants to get. Until now, getting the type of
the object has always been required (and it is returned via
the return type rather than a pointer in object_info).

This can involve actually opening a loose object file to
determine its type, or following delta chains to determine a
packed file's base type. These effects produce a measurable
slow-down when doing a "cat-file --batch-check" that does
not include %(objecttype).

This patch adds a "typep" query to struct object_info, so
that it can be optionally queried just like size and
disk_size. As a result, the return type of the function is
no longer the object type, but rather 0/-1 for success/error.

As there are only three callers total, we just fix up each
caller rather than keep a compatibility wrapper:

  1. The simpler sha1_object_info wrapper continues to
     always ask for and return the type field.

  2. The istream_source function wants to know the type, and
     so always asks for it.

  3. The cat-file batch code asks for the type only when
     %(objecttype) is part of the format string.

On linux.git, the best-of-five for running:

  $ git rev-list --objects --all >objects
  $ time git cat-file --batch-check='%(objectsize:disk)'

on a fully packed repository goes from:

  real    0m8.680s
  user    0m8.160s
  sys     0m0.512s

to:

  real    0m7.205s
  user    0m6.580s
  sys     0m0.608s

412916ee13 packed_object_info: make type lookup optional
Currently, packed_object_info can save some work by not
calculating the size or disk_size of the object if the
caller is not interested. However, it always calculates the
true object type, whether the caller cares or not, and only
optionally returns the easy-to-get "representation type".

Let's swap these types. The function will now return the
representation type (or OBJ_BAD on failure), and will only
optionally fill in the true type.

There should be no behavior change yet, as the only caller,
sha1_object_info_extended, will always feed it a type
pointer.

90191d37ab packed_object_info: hoist delta type resolution to helper
To calculate the type of a packed object, we must walk down
its delta chain until we hit a true base object with a real
type. Most of the code in packed_object_info is for handling
this case.

Let's hoist it out into a separate helper function, which
will make it easier to make the type-lookup optional in the
future (and keep our indentation level sane).

052fe5eaca sha1_loose_object_info: make type lookup optional
Until recently, the only items to request from
sha1_object_info_extended were type and size. This meant
that we always had to open a loose object file to determine
one or the other.  But with the addition of the disk_size
query, it's possible that we can fulfill the query without
even opening the object file at all. However, since the
function interface always returns the type, we have no way
of knowing whether the caller cares about it or not.

This patch only modified sha1_loose_object_info to make type
lookup optional using an out-parameter, similar to the way
the size is handled (and the return value is "0" or "-1" for
success or error, respectively).

There should be no functional change yet, though, as
sha1_object_info_extended, the only caller, will always ask
for a type.

Using sha1_object_info_extended, a caller can find out the
type of an object, its size, and information about where it
is stored. In addition to the object's "true" size, it can
also be useful to know the size that the object takes on
disk (e.g., to generate statistics about which refs consume
space).

7c07385d90 zero-initialize object_info structs
The sha1_object_info_extended function expects the caller to
provide a "struct object_info" which contains pointers to
"query" items that will be filled in. The purpose of
providing pointers rather than storing the response directly
in the struct is so that callers can choose not to incur the
expense in finding particular fields that they do not care
about.

Right now the only query item is "sizep", and all callers
set it explicitly to choose whether or not to query it; they
can then leave the rest of the struct uninitialized.

However, as we add new query items, each caller will have to
be updated to explicitly turn off the new ones (by setting
them to NULL).  Instead, let's teach each caller to
zero-initialize the struct, so that they do not have to
learn about each new query item added.

1ee886c1f0 unpack_entry: do not die when we fail to apply a delta
When we try to load an object from disk and fail, our
general strategy is to see if we can get it from somewhere
else (e.g., a loose object). That lets users fix corruption
problems by copying known-good versions of objects into the
object database.

We already handle the case where we were not able to read
the delta from disk. However, when we find that the delta we
read does not apply, we simply die.  This case is harder to
trigger, as corruption in the delta data itself would
trigger a crc error from zlib.  However, a corruption that
pointed us at the wrong delta base might cause it.

We can do the same "fail and try to find the object
elsewhere" trick instead of dying. This not only gives us a
chance to recover, but also puts us on code paths that will
alert the user to the problem (with the current message,
they do not even know which sha1 caused the problem).

Note that unlike some other pack corruptions, we do not
recover automatically from this case when doing a repack.
There is nothing apparently wrong with the delta, as it
points to a valid, accessible object, and we realize the
error only when the resulting size does not match up. And in
theory, one could even have a case where the corrupted size
is the same, and the problem would only be noticed by
recomputing the sha1.

We can get around this by recomputing the deltas with
--no-reuse-delta, which our test does (and this is probably
good advice for anyone recovering from pack corruption).

dbea72a8c0 sha1_file: silence sha1_loose_object_info
sha1_object_info() returns -1 (OBJ_BAD) if it cannot find the object
for some reason, which suggests that it wants the _caller_ to report
this error.  However, part of its work happens in
sha1_loose_object_info, which _does_ report errors itself.  This is
doubly strange because:

* packed_object_info(), which is the other half of the duo, does _not_
  report this.

* In the event that an object is packed and pruned while
  sha1_object_info_extended() goes looking for it, we would
  erroneously show the error -- even though the code of the latter
  function purports to handle this case gracefully.

* A caller might invoke sha1_object_info() to find the type of an
  object even if that object is not known to exist.

Silence this error.  The others remain untouched as a corrupt object
is a much more grave error than it merely being absent.

756a042600 unpack_entry: avoid freeing objects in base cache
In the !delta_data error path of unpack_entry(), we run free(base).
This became a window for use-after-free() in abe601b (sha1_file:
remove recursion in unpack_entry, 2013-03-27), as follows:

Before abe601b, we got the 'base' from cache_or_unpack_entry(..., 0);
keep_cache=0 tells it to also remove that entry.  So the 'base' is at
this point not cached, and freeing it in the error path is the right
thing.

After abe601b, the structure changed: we use a three-phase approach
where phase 1 finds the innermost base or a base that is already in
the cache.  In phase 3 we therefore know that all bases we unpack are
not part of the delta cache yet.  (Observe that we pop from the cache
in phase 1, so this is also true for the very first base.)  So we make
no further attempts to look up the bases in the cache, and just call
add_delta_base_cache() on every base object we have assembled.

But the !delta_data error path remained unchanged, and now calls
free() on a base that has already been entered in the cache.  This
means that there is a use-after-free if we later use the same base
again.

So remove that free(); we are still going to use that data.

2. Unpack the base object at the bottom.

790d96c023 sha1_file: remove recursion in packed_object_info
packed_object_info() and packed_delta_info() were mutually recursive.
The former would handle ordinary types and defer deltas to the latter;
the latter would use the former to resolve the delta base.

This arrangement, however, leads to trouble with threaded index-pack
and long delta chains on platforms where thread stacks are small, as
happened on OS X (512kB thread stacks by default) with the chromium
repo.

The task of the two functions is not all that hard to describe without
any recursion, however.  It proceeds in three steps:

- determine the representation type and size, based on the outermost
  object (delta or not)

- follow through the delta chain, if any

- determine the object type from what is found at the end of the delta
  chain

The only complication stems from the error recovery.  If parsing fails
at any step, we want to mark that object (within the pack) as bad and
try getting the corresponding SHA1 from elsewhere.  If that also
fails, we want to repeat this process back up the delta chain until we
find a reasonable solution or conclude that there is no way to
reconstruct the object.  (This is conveniently checked by t5303.)

To achieve that within the pack, we keep track of the entire delta
chain in a stack.  When things go sour, we process that stack from the
top, marking entries as bad and attempting to re-resolve by sha1.  To
avoid excessive malloc(), the stack starts out with a small
stack-allocated array.  The choice of 64 is based on the default of
pack.depth, which is 50, in the hope that it covers "most" delta
chains without any need for malloc().

It's much harder to make the actual re-resolving by sha1 nonrecursive,
so we skip that.  If you can't afford *that* recursion, your
corruption problems are more serious than your stack size problems.

090ea12671 parse_object: avoid putting whole blob in core
Traditionally, all the callers of check_sha1_signature() first
called read_sha1_file() to prepare the whole object data in core,
and called this function.  The function is used to revalidate what
we read from the object database actually matches the object name we
used to ask for the data from the object database.

Update the API to allow callers to pass NULL as the object data, and
have the function read and hash the object data using streaming API
to recompute the object name, without having to hold everything in
core at the same time.  This is most useful in parse_object() that
parses a blob object, because this caller does not have to keep the
actual blob data around in memory after a "struct blob" is returned.

4f22b1015d do not stream large files to pack when filters are in use
Because git's object format requires us to specify the
number of bytes in the object in its header, we must know
the size before streaming a blob into the object database.
This is not a problem when adding a regular file, as we can
get the size from stat(). However, when filters are in use
(such as autocrlf, or the ident, filter, or eol
gitattributes), we have no idea what the ultimate size will
be.

The current code just punts on the whole issue and ignores
filter configuration entirely for files larger than
core.bigfilethreshold. This can generate confusing results
if you use filters for large binary files, as the filter
will suddenly stop working as the file goes over a certain
size.  Rather than try to handle unknown input sizes with
streaming, this patch just turns off the streaming
optimization when filters are in use.

This has a slight performance regression in a very specific
case: if you have autocrlf on, but no gitattributes, a large
binary file will avoid the streaming code path because we
don't know beforehand whether it will need conversion or
not. But if you are handling large binary files, you should
be marking them as such via attributes (or at least not
using autocrlf, and instead marking your text files as
such). And the flip side is that if you have a large
_non_-binary file, there is a correctness improvement;
before we did not apply the conversion at all.

The first half of the new t1051 script covers these failures
on input. The second half tests the matching output code
paths. These already work correctly, and do not need any
adjustment.

33e42de0d2 fsck: give accurate error message on empty loose object files
Since 3ba7a06552 (A loose object is not corrupt if it
cannot be read due to EMFILE), "git fsck" on a repository with an empty
loose object file complains with the error message

  fatal: failed to read object <sha1>: Invalid argument

This comes from a failure of mmap on this empty file, which sets errno to
EINVAL. Instead of calling xmmap on empty file, we display a clean error
message ourselves, and return a NULL pointer. The new message is

  error: object file .git/objects/09/<rest-of-sha1> is empty
  fatal: loose object <sha1> (stored in .git/objects/09/<rest-of-sha1>) is corrupt

The second line was already there before the regression in 3ba7a06552,
and the first is an additional message, that should help diagnosing the
problem for the user.

Commit f7c22cc (always start looking up objects in the last used pack
first - 2007-05-30) introduce a static packed_git* pointer as an
optimization.  The kept pointer however may become invalid if
free_pack_by_name() happens to free that particular pack.

Current code base does not access packs after calling
free_pack_by_name() so it should not be a problem. Anyway, move the
pointer out so that free_pack_by_name() can reset it to avoid running
into troubles in future.

58a6a9cc43 downgrade "packfile cannot be accessed" errors to warnings
These can happen if another process simultaneously prunes a
pack. But that is not usually an error condition, because a
properly-running prune should have repacked the object into
a new pack. So we will notice that the pack has disappeared
unexpectedly, print a message, try other packs (possibly
after re-scanning the list of packs), and find it in the new
pack.

4c08018204 pack-objects: protect against disappearing packs
It's possible that while pack-objects is running, a
simultaneously running prune process might delete a pack
that we are interested in. Because we load the pack indices
early on, we know that the pack contains our item, but by
the time we try to open and map it, it is gone.

Since c715f78, we already protect against this in the normal
object access code path, but pack-objects accesses the packs
at a lower level.  In the normal access path, we call
find_pack_entry, which will call find_pack_entry_one on each
pack index, which does the actual lookup. If it gets a hit,
we will actually open and verify the validity of the
matching packfile (using c715f78's is_pack_valid). If we
can't open it, we'll issue a warning and pretend that we
didn't find it, causing us to go on to the next pack (or on
to loose objects).

Furthermore, we will cache the descriptor to the opened
packfile. Which means that later, when we actually try to
access the object, we are likely to still have that packfile
opened, and won't care if it has been unlinked from the
filesystem.

Notice the "likely" above. If there is another pack access
in the interim, and we run out of descriptors, we could
close the pack. And then a later attempt to access the
closed pack could fail (we'll try to re-open it, of course,
but it may have been deleted). In practice, this doesn't
happen because we tend to look up items and then access them
immediately.

Pack-objects does not follow this code path. Instead, it
accesses the packs at a much lower level, using
find_pack_entry_one directly. This means we skip the
is_pack_valid check, and may end up with the name of a
packfile, but no open descriptor.

We can add the same is_pack_valid check here. Unfortunately,
the access patterns of pack-objects are not quite as nice
for keeping lookup and object access together. We look up
each object as we find out about it, and the only later when
writing the packfile do we necessarily access it. Which
means that the opened packfile may be closed in the interim.

In practice, however, adding this check still has value, for
three reasons.

  1. If you have a reasonable number of packs and/or a
     reasonable file descriptor limit, you can keep all of
     your packs open simultaneously. If this is the case,
     then the race is impossible to trigger.

  2. Even if you can't keep all packs open at once, you
     may end up keeping the deleted one open (i.e., you may
     get lucky).

  3. The race window is shortened. You may notice early that
     the pack is gone, and not try to access it. Triggering
     the problem without this check means deleting the pack
     any time after we read the list of index files, but
     before we access the looked-up objects.  Triggering it
     with this check means deleting the pack means deleting
     the pack after we do a lookup (and successfully access
     the packfile), but before we access the object. Which
     is a smaller window.

e6baf4a1ae clone: clone from a repository with relative alternates
Cloning from a local repository blindly copies or hardlinks all the files
under objects/ hierarchy. This results in two issues:

 - If the repository cloned has an "objects/info/alternates" file, and the
   command line of clone specifies --reference, the ones specified on the
   command line get overwritten by the copy from the original repository.

 - An entry in a "objects/info/alternates" file can specify the object
   stores it borrows objects from as a path relative to the "objects/"
   directory. When cloning a repository with such an alternates file, if
   the new repository is not sitting next to the original repository, such
   relative paths needs to be adjusted so that they can be used in the new
   repository.

This updates add_to_alternates_file() to take the path to the alternate
object store, including the "/objects" part at the end (earlier, it was
taking the path to $GIT_DIR and was adding "/objects" itself), as it is
technically possible to specify in objects/info/alternates file the path
of a directory whose name does not end with "/objects".

7f684a2aff Tolerate zlib deflation with window size < 32Kb
Git currently reports loose objects as 'corrupt' if they've been
deflated using a window size less than 32Kb, because the
experimental_loose_object() function doesn't recognise the header
byte as a zlib header. This patch makes the function tolerant of
all valid window sizes (15-bit to 8-bit) - but doesn't sacrifice
it's accuracy in distingushing the standard loose-object format
from the experimental (now abandoned) format.

On memory constrained systems zlib may use a much smaller window
size - working on Agit, I found that Android uses a 4KB window;
giving a header byte of 0x48, not 0x78. Consequently all loose
objects generated appear 'corrupt', which is why Agit is a read-only
Git client at this time - I don't want my client to generate Git
repos that other clients treat as broken :(

This patch makes Git tolerant of different deflate settings - it
might appear that it changes experimental_loose_object() to the point
where it could incorrectly identify the experimental format as the
standard one, but the two criteria (bitmask & checksum) can only
give a false result for an experimental object where both of the
following are true:

1) object size is exactly 8 bytes when uncompressed (bitmask)
2) [single-byte in-pack git type&size header] * 256
   + [1st byte of the following zlib header] % 31 = 0 (checksum)

As it happens, for all possible combinations of valid object type
(1-4) and window bits (0-7), the only time when the checksum will be
divisible by 31 is for 0x1838 - ie object type *1*, a Commit - which,
due the fields all Commit objects must contain, could never be as
small as 8 bytes in size.

Given this, the combination of the two criteria (bitmask & checksum)
always correctly determines the buffer format, and is more tolerant
than the previous version.

The alternative to this patch is simply removing support for the
experimental format, which I am also totally cool with.
