In order to negotiate a packfile, we need to dereference refs to see
which commits we have in common with the remote. To do so, we first look
up the object's type -- if it's a tag, we peel until we hit a non-tag
object. If we hit a commit eventually, then we return that commit.
In case the object ID points to a commit directly, we can avoid the
initial lookup of the object type by opportunistically looking up the
commit via the commit-graph, if available, which gives us a slight speed
bump of about 2% in a huge repository with about 2.3M refs:

The object ID iterator used by the connectivity checks returns the next
object ID via an out-parameter and then uses a return code to indicate
whether an item was found. This is a bit roundabout: instead of a
separate error code, we can just return the next object ID directly and
use `NULL` pointers as indicator that the iterator got no items left.
Furthermore, this avoids a copy of the object ID.
Refactor the iterator and all its implementations to return object IDs
directly. This brings a tiny performance improvement when doing a mirror-fetch of a repository with about 2.3M refs:

When updating local refs after the fetch has transferred all objects, we
do an object existence test as a safety guard to avoid updating a ref to
an object which we don't have. We do so via `oid_object_info()`: if it
returns an error, then we know the object does not exist.
One side effect of `oid_object_info()` is that it parses the object's
type, and to do so it must unpack the object header. This is completely
pointless: we don't care for the type, but only want to assert that the
object exists.
Refactor the code to use `repo_has_object_file()`, which both makes the
code's intent clearer and is also faster because it does not unpack
object headers. In a real-world repo with 2.3M refs, this results in a
small speedup when doing a mirror-fetch:

When updating our local refs based on the refs fetched from the remote,
we need to iterate through all requested refs and load their respective
commits such that we can determine whether they need to be appended to
FETCH_HEAD or not. In cases where we're fetching from a remote with
exceedingly many refs, resolving these refs can be quite expensive given
that we repeatedly need to unpack object headers for each of the
referenced objects.
Speed this up by opportunistically trying to resolve object IDs via the
commit graph. We only do so for any refs which are not in "refs/tags":
more likely than not, these are going to be a commit anyway, and this
lets us avoid having to unpack object headers completely in case the
object is a commit that is part of the commit-graph. This significantly
speeds up mirror-fetches in a real-world repository with
2.3M refs:

When a repository has at least one alternate, the MIDX belonging to each
alternate is accessed through the `next` pointer on the main object
store's copy of the MIDX. close_midx() didn't bother to close any
of the linked MIDXs. It likewise didn't free the memory pointed to by
`m`, leaving uninitialized bytes with live pointers to them left around
in the heap.
Clean this up by closing linked MIDXs, and freeing up the memory pointed
to by each of them. When callers call close_midx(), then they can
discard the entire linked list of MIDXs and set their pointer to the
head of that list to NULL.
This isn't strictly required for the upcoming patches, but it makes it
much more difficult (though still possible, for e.g., by calling
`close_midx(m->next)` which leaves `m->next` pointing at uninitialized
bytes) to have pointers to uninitialized memory.

In 9218c6a40c (midx: allow marking a pack as preferred, 2021-03-30), the
multi-pack index code learned how to select a pack which all duplicate
objects are selected from. That is, if an object appears in multiple
packs, select the copy in the preferred pack before breaking ties
according to the other rules like pack mtime and readdir() order.
Not specifying a preferred pack can cause serious problems with
multi-pack reachability bitmaps, because these bitmaps rely on having at
least one pack from which all duplicates are selected. Not having such a
pack causes problems with the code in pack-objects to reuse packs
verbatim (e.g., that code assumes that a delta object in a chunk of pack
sent verbatim will have its base object sent from the same pack).
So why does not marking a pack preferred cause problems here? The reason
is roughly as follows:
- Ties are broken (when handling duplicate objects) by sorting
according to midx_oid_compare(), which sorts objects by OID,
preferred-ness, pack mtime, and finally pack ID (more on that
later).
- The psuedo pack-order (described in
Documentation/technical/pack-format.txt under the section
"multi-pack-index reverse indexes") is computed by
midx_pack_order(), and sorts by pack ID and pack offset, with
preferred packs sorting first.
- But! Pack IDs come from incrementing the pack count in
add_pack_to_midx(), which is a callback to
for_each_file_in_pack_dir(), meaning that pack IDs are assigned in
readdir() order.
When specifying a preferred pack, all of that works fine, because
duplicate objects are correctly resolved in favor of the copy in the
preferred pack, and the preferred pack sorts first in the object order.
"Sorting first" is critical, because the bitmap code relies on finding
out which pack holds the first object in the MIDX's pseudo pack-order to
determine which pack is preferred.
But if we didn't specify a preferred pack, and the pack which comes
first in readdir() order does not also have the lowest timestamp, then
it's possible that that pack (the one that sorts first in pseudo-pack
order, which the bitmap code will treat as the preferred one) did *not*
have all duplicate objects resolved in its favor, resulting in breakage.
The fix is simple: pick a (semi-arbitrary, non-empty) preferred pack
when none was specified. This forces that pack to have duplicates
resolved in its favor, and (critically) to sort first in pseudo-pack
order. Unfortunately, testing this behavior portably isn't possible,
since it depends on readdir() order which isn't guaranteed by POSIX.
(Note that multi-pack reachability bitmaps have yet to be implemented;
so in that sense this patch is fixing a bug which does not yet exist.
But by having this patch beforehand, we can prevent the bug from ever
materializing.)

The soon-to-be-implemented multi-pack bitmap treats object in the first
bit position specially by assuming that all objects in the pack it was
selected from are also represented from that pack in the MIDX. In other
words, the pack from which the first object was selected must also have
all of its other objects selected from that same pack in the MIDX in
case of any duplicates.
But this assumption relies on the fact that there is at least one object
in that pack to begin with; otherwise the object in the first bit
position isn't from a preferred pack, in which case we can no longer
assume that all objects in that pack were also selected from the same
pack.
Guard this assumption by checking the number of objects in the given
preferred pack, and failing if the given pack is empty.
To make sure we can safely perform this check, open any packs which are
contained in an existing MIDX via prepare_midx_pack(). The same is done
for new packs via the add_pack_to_midx() callback, but packs picked up
from a previous MIDX will not yet have these opened.

out of the wrong object directory.

The multi-pack-index command supports working with arbitrary object
directories via the `--object-dir` flag. Though this has historically
worked in arbitrary repositories (including when the command itself was
run outside of a Git repository), this has been somewhat of an accident.
For example, running:
git multi-pack-index write --object-dir=/path/to/repo/objects
outside of a Git repository causes a BUG(). This is because the
top-level `cmd_multi_pack_index()` function stops parsing when it sees
"write", and then fills in the default object directory (the result of
calling `get_object_directory()`) before handing off to
`cmd_multi_pack_index_write()`. But there is no repository to
initialize, and so calling `get_object_directory()` results in a BUG()
(indicating that the current repository is not initialized).
Another case where this doesn't quite work as expected is when operating
in a SHA-256 repository. To see the failure, try this in your shell:
git init --object-format=sha256 repo
git -C repo commit --allow-empty base
git -C repo repack -d
git multi-pack-index --object-dir=$(pwd)/repo/.git/objects write
and observe that we cannot open the `.idx` file in "repo", because the
outermost process assumes that any repository that it works in also uses
the default value of `the_hash_algo` (at the time of writing, SHA-1).
There may be compelling reasons for trying to work around these bugs,
but working in arbitrary `--object-dir`'s is non-standard enough (and
likewise, these bugs prevalent enough) that I don't think any workflows
would be broken by abandoning this behavior.
Accordingly, restrict the `multi-pack-index` builtin to only work when
inside of a Git repository (i.e., its main utility becomes selecting
which alternate to operate in), which avoids both of the bugs above.
(Note that you can still trigger a bug when writing a MIDX in an
alternate which does not use the same object format as the repository
which it is an alternate of, but that is an unrelated bug to this one).

In both protocol v0 and v2, upload-pack writes one pktline packet per
advertised ref to stdout. That means one or two write(2) syscalls per
ref. This is problematic if these writes become network sends with
high overhead.
This commit changes both send_ref callbacks to use buffered IO using
stdio.
To give an example of the impact: I set up a single-threaded loop that
calls ls-remote (with HTTP and protocol v2) on a local GitLab
instance, on a repository with 11K refs. When I switch from Git
v2.32.0 to this patch, I see a 40% reduction in CPU time for Git, and
65% for Gitaly (GitLab's Git RPC service).
So using buffered IO not only saves syscalls in upload-pack, it also
saves time in things that consume upload-pack's output.

If you have ever initialized a submodule, open_submodule will open it.
If you then delete the submodule's worktree directory (but don't
remove it from .gitmodules), git diff --submodule=diff would error out
as it attempted to chdir into the now-deleted working tree directory.
This only matters if the submodules git dir is absorbed. If not, then
we no longer have anywhere to run the diff. But that case does not
trigger this error, because in that case, open_submodule fails, so we
don't resolve a left commit, so we exit early, which is the only thing
we could do.
If absorbed, then we can run the diff from the submodule's absorbed
git dir (.git/modules/sm2). In practice, that's a bit more
complicated, because `git diff` expects to be run from inside a
working directory, not a git dir. So it looks in the config for
core.worktree, and does chdir("../../../sm2"), which is the very dir
that we're trying to avoid visiting because it's been deleted. We
work around this by setting GIT_WORK_TREE (and GIT_DIR) to ".". It is
little weird to set GIT_WORK_TREE to something that is not a working
tree just to avoid an unnecessary chdir, but it works.

"git pull" had various corner cases that were not well thought out
around its --rebase backend, e.g. "git pull --ff-only" did not stop
but went ahead and rebased when the history on other side is not a
descendant of our history. The series tries to fix them up.

t7601: test interaction of merge/rebase/fast-forward flags and options
Based on current experience, when running git clone --recurse-submodules,
developers do not expect other commands such as pull or checkout to run
recursively into active submodules. However, setting submodule.recurse=true
at this step could make for a simpler workflow by eliminating the need for
the --recurse-submodules option in subsequent commands. To collect more
data on developers' preference in regards to making submodule.recurse=true
a default config value in the future, deploy this feature under the opt in
submodule.stickyRecursiveClone flag.

If multiple independent patches are sent with send-email, even if the
"In-Reply-To" and "References" headers are not managed by --thread or
--in-reply-to, their values may be propagated from prior patches to
subsequent patches with no such headers defined.
To mitigate this and potential future issues, make sure all global
patch-specific variables are always either handled by
command-specific code (e.g. threading), or are reset to their default
values for every iteration.

When fetching, Git will by default print a list of all updated refs in a
nicely formatted table. In order to come up with this table, Git needs
to iterate refs twice: first to determine the maximum column width, and
a second time to actually format these changed refs.
While this table will not be printed in case the user passes `--quiet`,
we still go out of our way and do all these steps. In fact, we even do
more work compared to not passing `--quiet`: without the flag, we will
skip all references in the column width computation which have not been
updated, but if it is set we will now compute widths for all refs.
Fix this issue by completely skipping both preparation of the format and
formatting data for display in case the user passes `--quiet`, improving
performance especially with many refs. The following benchmark shows a
nice speedup for a quiet mirror-fetch in a repository with 2.3M refs:
Benchmark #1: HEAD~: git-fetch
Time (mean ± σ): 26.929 s ± 0.145 s [User: 24.194 s, System: 4.656 s]
Range (min … max): 26.692 s … 27.068 s 5 runs
Benchmark #2: HEAD: git-fetch
Time (mean ± σ): 25.189 s ± 0.094 s [User: 22.556 s, System: 4.606 s]
Range (min … max): 25.070 s … 25.314 s 5 runs
Summary
'HEAD: git-fetch' ran
1.07 ± 0.01 times faster than 'HEAD~: git-fetch'
While at it, this patch also fixes `adjust_refcol_width()` such that it
skips unchanged refs in case the user passed `--quiet`, where verbosity
will be negative. While this function won't be called anymore if so,
this brings the comment in line with actual code. Furthermore, needless
`verbosity >= 0` checks are now removed in `store_updated_refs()`: we
never print to the `note` buffer anymore in case `verbosity < 0`, so we
won't end up in that code block anyway.

Every once in a while a test somehow manages to escape from its trash
directory and modifies the surrounding repository, whether because of
a bug in git itself, a bug in a test [1], or e.g. when trying to run
tests with a shell that is, in general, unable to run our tests [2].
Set GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES="$TRASH_DIRECTORY/.." as an additional
safety measure to protect the surrounding repository at least from
modifications by git commands executed in the tests (assuming that
handling of ceiling directories during repository discovery is not
broken, and, of course, it won't save us from regular shell commands,
e.g. 'cd .. && rm -f ...').
[1] e.g. https://public-inbox.org/git/20210423051255.GD2947267@szeder.dev
[2] $ git symbolic-ref HEAD
refs/heads/master
$ ksh ./t2011-checkout-invalid-head.sh
[... a lot of "not ok" ...]
$ git symbolic-ref HEAD
refs/heads/other
(In short: 'ksh' doesn't support the 'local' builtin command,
which is used by 'test_oid', causing it to return with error
whenever it's called, leaving ZERO_OID set to empty, so when the
test 'checkout main from invalid HEAD' runs 'echo $ZERO_OID
>.git/HEAD' it writes a corrupt (not invalid) HEAD, and subsequent
git commands don't recognize the repository in the trash directory
anymore, but operate on the surrounding repo.)

Copy the 'index_state->dir_hash' back to the real istate after expanding
a sparse index.
A crash was observed in 'git status' during some hashmap lookups with
corrupted hashmap entries. During an index expansion, new cache-entries
are added to the 'index_state->name_hash' and the 'dir_hash' in a
temporary 'index_state' variable 'full'. However, only the 'name_hash'
hashmap from this temp variable was copied back into the real 'istate'
variable. The original copy of the 'dir_hash' was incorrectly
preserved. If the table in the 'full->dir_hash' hashmap were realloced,
the stale version (in 'istate') would be corrupted.
The test suite does not operate on index sizes sufficiently large to
trigger this reallocation, so they do not cover this behavior.
Increasing the test suite to cover such scale is fragile and likely
wasteful.
