In "config.c" we host both the business logic to read and write config
files as well as the logic to parse specific Git-related variables. On
the one hand this is mixing concerns, but even more importantly it means
that we cannot easily remove the dependency on `the_repository` in our
config parsing logic.
Move the logic into "environment.c". This file is a grab bag of all
kinds of global state already, so it is quite a good fit. Furthermore,
it also hosts most of the global variables that we're parsing the config
values into, making this an even better fit.
Note that there is one hidden change: in `parse_fsync_components()` we
use an `int` to iterate through `ARRAY_SIZE(fsync_component_names)`. But
as -Wsign-compare warnings are enabled in this file this causes a
compiler warning. The issue is fixed by using a `size_t` instead.
This change allows us to drop the `USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE`
declaration.

In 036876a1067 (config: hide functions using `the_repository` by
default, 2024-08-13) we have moved around a bunch of functions in the
config subsystem that depend on `the_repository`. Those function have
been converted into mere wrappers around their equivalent function that
takes in a repository as parameter, and the intent was that we'll
eventually remove those wrappers to make the dependency on the global
repository variable explicit at the callsite.
Follow through with that intent and remove `git_config()`. All callsites
are adjusted so that they use `repo_config(the_repository, ...)`
instead. While some callsites might already have a repository available,
this mechanical conversion is the exact same as the current situation
and thus cannot cause any regression. Those sites should eventually be
cleaned up in a later patch series.

The commit 76e760b999 (refs: introduce enum-based transaction error
types, 2025-04-08) introduced enum-based transaction error types. The
refs transaction logic was also modified to propagate these errors. For
clients of the ref transaction system, it would be beneficial to provide
human readable messages for these errors.
There is already an existing mapping in 'builtin/update-ref.c', move it
to 'refs.c' as `ref_transaction_error_msg()` and use the same within the
'builtin/update-ref.c'.

When updating multiple references through stdin, Git's update-ref
command normally aborts the entire transaction if any single update
fails. This atomic behavior prevents partial updates. Introduce a new
batch update system, where the updates the performed together similar
but individual updates are allowed to fail.
Add a new `--batch-updates` flag that allows the transaction to continue
even when individual reference updates fail. This flag can only be used
in `--stdin` mode and builds upon the batch update support added to the
refs subsystem in the previous commits. When enabled, failed updates are
reported in the following format:
rejected SP (<old-oid> | <old-target>) SP (<new-oid> | <new-target>) SP <rejection-reason> LF
Update the documentation to reflect this change and also tests to cover
different scenarios where an update could be rejected.

Most of the commands in git-update-ref(1) accept an old and/or new
object ID to update a specific reference to. These object IDs get parsed
via `repo_get_oid()`, which not only handles plain object IDs, but also
those that have a suffix like "~" or "^2". More surprisingly though, it
even knows to resolve arbitrary revisions, despite the fact that its
manpage does not mention this fact even once.
One consequence of this is that we also check for ambiguous references:
when parsing a full object ID where the DWIM mechanism would also cause
us to resolve it as a branch, we'd end up printing a warning. While this
check makes sense to have in general, it is arguably less useful in the
context of git-update-ref(1). This is due to multiple reasons:
- The manpage is explicitly structured around object IDs. So if we see
a fully blown object ID, the intent should be quite clear in
general.
- The command is part of our plumbing layer and not a tool that users
would generally use in interactive workflows. As such, the warning
will likely not be visible to anybody in the first place.
- Users can and should use the fully-qualified refname in case there
is any potential for ambiguity. And given that this command is part
of our plumbing layer, one should always try to be as defensive as
possible and use fully-qualified refnames.
Furthermore, this check can be quite expensive when updating lots of
references via `--stdin`, because we try to read multiple references per
object ID that we parse according to the DWIM rules. This effect can be
seen both with the "files" and "reftable" backend.
The issue is not unique to git-update-ref(1), but was also an issue in
git-cat-file(1), where it was addressed by disabling the ambiguity check
in 25fba78d36b (cat-file: disable object/refname ambiguity check for
batch mode, 2013-07-12).
Disable the warning in git-update-ref(1), which provides a significant
speedup with both backends. The user-visible outcome is unchanged even
when ambiguity exists, except that we don't show the warning anymore.
The following benchmark creates 10000 new references with a 100000
preexisting refs with the "files" backend:
Benchmark 1: update-ref: create many refs (refformat = files, preexisting = 100000, new = 10000, revision = HEAD~)
Time (mean ± σ): 467.3 ms ± 5.1 ms [User: 100.0 ms, System: 365.1 ms]
Range (min … max): 461.9 ms … 479.3 ms 10 runs
Benchmark 2: update-ref: create many refs (refformat = files, preexisting = 100000, new = 10000, revision = HEAD)
Time (mean ± σ): 394.1 ms ± 5.8 ms [User: 63.3 ms, System: 327.6 ms]
Range (min … max): 384.9 ms … 405.7 ms 10 runs
Summary
update-ref: create many refs (refformat = files, preexisting = 100000, new = 10000, revision = HEAD) ran
1.19 ± 0.02 times faster than update-ref: create many refs (refformat = files, preexisting = 100000, new = 10000, revision = HEAD~)
And with the "reftable" backend:
Benchmark 1: update-ref: create many refs (refformat = reftable, preexisting = 100000, new = 10000, revision = HEAD~)
Time (mean ± σ): 146.9 ms ± 2.2 ms [User: 90.4 ms, System: 56.0 ms]
Range (min … max): 142.7 ms … 150.8 ms 19 runs
Benchmark 2: update-ref: create many refs (refformat = reftable, preexisting = 100000, new = 10000, revision = HEAD)
Time (mean ± σ): 63.2 ms ± 1.1 ms [User: 41.0 ms, System: 21.8 ms]
Range (min … max): 61.1 ms … 66.6 ms 41 runs
Summary
update-ref: create many refs (refformat = reftable, preexisting = 100000, new = 10000, revision = HEAD) ran
2.32 ± 0.05 times faster than update-ref: create many refs (refformat = reftable, preexisting = 100000, new = 10000, revision = HEAD~)
Note that the absolute improvement with both backends is roughly in the
same ballpark, but the relative improvement for the "reftable" backend
is more significant because writing the new table to disk is faster in
the first place.

The `null_oid()` function returns the object ID that only consists of
zeroes. Naturally, this ID also depends on the hash algorithm used, as
the number of zeroes is different between SHA1 and SHA256. Consequently,
the function returns the hash-algorithm-specific null object ID.
This is currently done by depending on `the_hash_algo`, which implicitly
makes us depend on `the_repository`. Refactor the function to instead
pass in the hash algorithm for which we want to retrieve the null object
ID. Adapt callsites accordingly by passing in `the_repository`, thus
bubbling up the dependency on that global variable by one layer.
There are a couple of trivial exceptions for subsystems that already got
rid of `the_repository`. These subsystems instead use the repository
that is available via the calling context:
- "builtin/grep.c"
- "grep.c"
- "refs/debug.c"
There are also two non-trivial exceptions:
- "diff-no-index.c": Here we know that we may not have a repository
initialized at all, so we cannot rely on `the_repository`. Instead,
we adapt `diff_no_index()` to get a `struct git_hash_algo` as
parameter. The only caller is located in "builtin/diff.c", where we
know to call `repo_set_hash_algo()` in case we're running outside of
a Git repository. Consequently, it is fine to continue passing
`the_repository->hash_algo` even in this case.
- "builtin/ls-files.c": There is an in-flight patch series that drops
`USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE` in this file, which causes a semantic
conflict because we use `null_oid()` in `show_submodule()`. The
value is passed to `repo_submodule_init()`, which may use the object
ID to resolve a tree-ish in the superproject from which we want to
read the submodule config. As such, the object ID should refer to an
object in the superproject, and consequently we need to use its hash
algorithm.
This means that we could in theory just not bother about this edge
case at all and just use `the_repository` in "diff-no-index.c". But
doing so would feel misdesigned.
Remove the `USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE` preprocessor define in
"hash.c".

Add 'symref-update' command to the '--stdin' mode of 'git-update-ref' to
allow updates of symbolic refs. The 'symref-update' command takes in a
<new-target>, which the <ref> will be updated to. If the <ref> doesn't
exist it will be created.
It also optionally takes either an `ref <old-target>` or `oid
<old-oid>`. If the <old-target> is provided, it checks to see if the
<ref> targets the <old-target> before the update. If <old-oid> is provided
it checks <ref> to ensure that it is a regular ref and <old-oid> is the
OID before the update. This by extension also means that this when a
zero <old-oid> is provided, it ensures that the ref didn't exist before.
The divergence in syntax from the regular `update` command is because if
we don't use a `(ref | oid)` prefix for the old_value, then there is
ambiguity around if the value provided should be treated as an oid or a
reference. This is more so the reason, because we allow anything
committish to be provided as an oid. While 'symref-verify' and
'symref-delete' also take in `<old-target>` we do not have this
divergence there as those commands only work with symrefs. Whereas
'symref-update' also works with regular refs and allows users to convert
regular refs to symrefs.
The command allows users to perform symbolic ref updates within a
transaction. This provides atomicity and allows users to perform a set
of operations together.
This command supports deref mode, to ensure that we can update
dereferenced regular refs to symrefs.

Also, support the 'core.prefersymlinkrefs' config, wherein if the config

as a symlink. We fallback to creating a regular symref if creating the
symlink is unsuccessful.

Add a new command 'symref-delete' to allow deletions of symbolic refs in
a transaction via the '--stdin' mode of the 'git-update-ref' command.
The 'symref-delete' command can, when given an <old-target>, delete the
provided <ref> only when it points to <old-target>.
This command is only compatible with the 'no-deref' mode because we
optionally want to check the 'old_target' of the ref being deleted.
De-referencing a symbolic ref would provide a regular ref and we already
have the 'delete' command for regular refs.
While users can also use 'git symbolic-ref -d' to delete symbolic refs,
the 'symref-delete' command in 'git-update-ref' allows users to do so
within a transaction, which promises atomicity of the operation and can
be batched with other commands.
When no 'old_target' is provided it can also delete regular refs,
similar to how the 'delete' command can delete symrefs when no 'old_oid'
is provided.

The 'symref-verify' command allows users to verify if a provided <ref>
contains the provided <old-target> without changing the <ref>. If
<old-target> is not provided, the command will verify that the <ref>
doesn't exist.
The command allows users to verify symbolic refs within a transaction,
and this means users can perform a set of changes in a transaction only
when the verification holds good.
Since we're checking for symbolic refs, this command will only work with
the 'no-deref' mode. This is because any dereferenced symbolic ref will
point to an object and not a ref and the regular 'verify' command can be
used in such situations.
Add required tests for symref support in 'verify'. Since we're here,
also add reflog checks for the pre-existing 'verify' tests, there is no
divergence from behavior, but we never tested to ensure that reflog
wasn't affected by the 'verify' command.

The function `ref_transaction_update()` obtains ref information and
flags to create a `ref_update` and add them to the transaction at hand.
To extend symref support in transactions, we need to also accept the
old and new ref targets and process it. This commit adds the required
parameters to the function and modifies all call sites.
The two parameters added are `new_target` and `old_target`. The
`new_target` is used to denote what the reference should point to when
the transaction is applied. Some functions allow this parameter to be
NULL, meaning that the reference is not changed.
The `old_target` denotes the value the reference must have before the
update. Some functions allow this parameter to be NULL, meaning that the
old value of the reference is not checked.
We also update the internal function `ref_transaction_add_update()`
similarly to take the two new parameters.

The `git-update-ref` command is used to modify references. The usage of
{old,new}value in the documentation refers to the OIDs. This is fine
since the command only works with regular references which hold OIDs.
But if the command is updated to support symrefs, we'd also be dealing
with {old,new}-refs.

hash.h depends upon and includes repository.h, due to the definition and
use of the_hash_algo (defined as the_repository->hash_algo). However,
most headers trying to include hash.h are only interested in the layout
of the structs like object_id. Move the parts of hash.h that do not
depend upon repository.h into a new file hash-ll.h (the "low level"
parts of hash.h), and adjust other files to use this new header where
the convenience inline functions aren't needed.
This allows hash.h and object.h to be fairly small, minimal headers. It
also exposes a lot of hidden dependencies on both path.h (which was
brought in by repository.h) and repository.h (which was previously
implicitly brought in by object.h), so also adjust other files to be
more explicit about what they depend upon.

When executing git-update-ref(1) with the `--stdin` flag, then the user
can queue updates and, since e48cf33b61 (update-ref: implement
interactive transaction handling, 2020-04-02), interactively drive the
transaction's state via a set of transactional verbs. This interactivity
is somewhat broken though: while the caller can use these verbs to drive
the transaction's state, the status messages which confirm that a verb
has been processed is not flushed. The caller may thus be left hanging
waiting for the acknowledgement.

git-update-ref(1) for a single session, but none of them except for the
first one actually have any effect.
Using such nested "start"s may eventually have a sensible effect. One
may imagine that it restarts the current transaction, effectively
emptying it and creating a new one. It may also allow for creation of
nested transactions. But currently, none of these are implemented.
Silently ignoring this misuse is making it hard to iterate in the future
if "start" is ever going to have meaningful semantics in such a context.
This commit thus makes sure to error out in case we see such use.

While git-update-ref has recently grown commands which allow interactive
control of transactions in e48cf33b61 (update-ref: implement interactive
transaction handling, 2020-04-02), it is not yet possible to create
multiple transactions in a single session. To do so, one currently still
needs to invoke the executable multiple times.
This commit addresses this shortcoming by allowing the "start" command
to create a new transaction if the current transaction has already been
either committed or aborted.

This requires updating #include lines across the code-base, but that's
all fairly mechanical, and was done with:

xargs perl -i -pe 's/argv-array.h/strvec.h/'

The git-update-ref(1) command can only handle queueing transactions
right now via its "--stdin" parameter, but there is no way for users to
handle the transaction itself in a more explicit way. E.g. in a
replicated scenario, one may imagine a coordinator that spawns
git-update-ref(1) for multiple repositories and only if all agree that
an update is possible will the coordinator send a commit. Such a
transactional session could look like
> start
< start: ok
> update refs/heads/master $OLD $NEW
> prepare
< prepare: ok
# All nodes have returned "ok"
> commit
< commit: ok
or
> start
< start: ok
> create refs/heads/master $OLD $NEW
> prepare
< fatal: cannot lock ref 'refs/heads/master': reference already exists
# On all other nodes:
> abort
< abort: ok
In order to allow for such transactional sessions, this commit
introduces four new commands for git-update-ref(1), which matches those
we have internally already with the exception of "start":
- start: start a new transaction
- prepare: prepare the transaction, that is try to lock all
references and verify their current value matches the
expected one
- commit: explicitly commit a session, that is update references to
match their new expected state
- abort: abort a session and roll back all changes
By design, git-update-ref(1) will commit as soon as standard input is
being closed. While fine in a non-transactional world, it is definitely
unexpected in a transactional world. Because of this, as soon as any of
the new transactional commands is used, the default will change to
aborting without an explicit "commit". To avoid a race between queueing
updates and the first "prepare" that starts a transaction, the "start"
command has been added to start an explicit transaction.
Add some tests to exercise this new functionality.

The git-update-ref(1) supports a `--stdin` mode that allows it to read
all reference updates from standard input. This is mainly used to allow
for atomic reference updates that are all or nothing, so that either all
references will get updated or none.
Currently, git-update-ref(1) reads all commands as a single block of up
to 1000 characters and only starts processing after stdin gets closed.
This is less flexible than one might wish for, as it doesn't really
allow for longer-lived transactions and doesn't allow any verification
without committing everything. E.g. one may imagine the following
exchange:
> start
< start: ok
> update refs/heads/master $NEWOID1 $OLDOID1
> update refs/heads/branch $NEWOID2 $OLDOID2
> prepare
< prepare: ok
> commit
< commit: ok
When reading all input as a whole block, the above interactive protocol
is obviously impossible to achieve. But by converting the command to
read commands linewise, we can make it more interactive than before.
Obviously, the linewise interface is only a first step in making
git-update-ref(1) work in a more transaction-oriented way. Missing is
most importantly support for transactional commands that manage the
current transaction.

While the actual logic to update the transaction is handled in
`update_refs_stdin()`, the transaction itself is started and committed
in `cmd_update_ref()` itself. This makes it hard to handle transaction
abortion and commits as part of `update_refs_stdin()` itself, which is
required in order to introduce transaction handling features to `git
update-refs --stdin`.
Refactor the code to move all transaction handling into
`update_refs_stdin()` to prepare for transaction handling features.

We currently pass both an `strbuf` containing the current command line
as well as the `next` pointer pointing to the first argument to
commands. This is both confusing and makes code more intertwined.
Convert this to use a simple pointer as well as a pointer pointing to
the end of the input as a preparatory step to line-wise reading of
stdin.

The `parse_refname` function accepts a `struct strbuf *input` argument
that isn't used at all. As we're about to convert commands to not use a
strbuf anymore but instead an end pointer, let's drop this argument now
to make the converting commit easier to review.

We currently manually wire up all commands known to `git-update-ref
--stdin`, making it harder than necessary to preprocess arguments after
the command is determined. To make this more extensible, let's refactor
the code to use an array of known commands instead. While this doesn't
add a lot of value now, it is a preparatory step to implement line-wise
reading of commands.
As we're going to introduce commands without trailing spaces, this
commit also moves whitespace parsing into the respective commands.

If passed both --no-deref and --stdin, update-ref would error out with a
general usage message that did not at all suggest these options were
incompatible. The manpage for update-ref did suggest through its
synopsis line that --no-deref and --stdin were incompatible, but it sadly
also incorrectly suggested that -d and --no-deref were incompatible. So
the help around the --no-deref option is buggy in a few ways.
The --stdin option did provide a different mechanism for avoiding
dereferencing symbolic-refs: adding a line reading
option no-deref
before every other directive in the input. (Technically, if the user
wants to do the extra work of first determining which refs they want to
update or delete are symbolic, then they only need to put the extra
"option no-deref" lines before the updates of those refs. But in some
cases, that's more work than just adding the "option no-deref" before
every other directive.)
It's easier to allow the user to just pass --no-deref along with --stdin
in order to tell update-ref that the user doesn't want any symbolic ref
to be dereferenced. It also makes the update-ref documentation simpler.
Implement that, and update the documentation to match.

Update the ref transaction code to use struct object_id. Remove one
NULL pointer check which was previously inserted around a dereference;
since we now pass a pointer to struct object_id directly through, the
code we're calling handles this for us.
