'--filter=blob:limit=<n>' was introduced in 25ec7bcac0 (list-objects:
filter objects in traverse_commit_list, 2017-11-21) and later expanded
to bitmaps in 84243da129 (pack-bitmap: implement BLOB_LIMIT filtering,
2020-02-14)
The logic that was introduced in these commits (and that still persists
to this day) omits blobs larger than _or equal_ to n bytes or units.
However, the documentation (Documentation/rev-list-options.txt) states:
>The form '--filter=blob:limit=<n>[kmg]' omits blobs larger than n
bytes or units. n may be zero.
Moreover, the t6113-rev-list-bitmap-filters.sh tests for exactly this
logic, so it seems it is the documentation that needs fixing, not the
code.
This changes the explanation to be similar to
Documentation/git-clone.txt, which is correct.

In the recent codebase update (8bf6fbd00d (Merge branch
'js/doc-unit-tests', 2023-12-09)), a new unit testing framework was
merged, providing a standardized approach for testing C code. Prior to
this update, some unit tests relied on the test helper mechanism,
lacking a dedicated unit testing framework. It's more natural to perform
these unit tests using the new unit test framework.
This commit migrates the unit tests for C character classification
functions (isdigit(), isspace(), etc) from the legacy approach
using the test-tool command `test-tool ctype` in t/helper/test-ctype.c
to the new unit testing framework (t/unit-tests/test-lib.h).
The migration involves refactoring the tests to utilize the testing
macros provided by the framework (TEST() and check_*()).

When `write_commit_graph()` bails out writing a split commit-graph early
then it may happen that we have already gathered the set of existing
commit-graph file names without yet determining the new merged set of
files. This can result in a memory leak though because we only clear the
preimage of files when we have collected the postimage.
Fix this issue by dropping the condition altogether so that we always
try to free both preimage and postimage filenames. As the context
structure is zero-initialized this simplification is safe to do.

The treewide clean-up of "up-to-date" strings done in 7560f547
(treewide: correct several "up-to-date" to "up to date", 2017-08-23)
deliberately left some out, but unlike the lines that were changed
by the commit, the lines that were deliberately left untouched by
the commit is impossible to ask "git blame" to link back to the
commit that did not touch them.
Let's do the second best thing, leave a short comment near them

The error message we show when the user tries to delete a not fully
merged branch describes the error and gives a hint to the user:
error: the branch 'foo' is not fully merged.
If you are sure you want to delete it, run 'git branch -D foo'.
Let's move the hint part so that it is displayed using the advice
machinery:

The git-p4 tool creates a bunch of temporary branches that share a
common prefix "refs/git-p4-tmp/". These branches get cleaned up via
git-update-ref(1) after the import has finished. Once done, we try to
manually remove the now supposedly-empty ".git/refs/git-p4-tmp/"
directory.
This last step can fail in case there still are any temporary branches
around that we failed to delete because `os.rmdir()` refuses to delete a
non-empty directory. It can thus be seen as kind of a sanity check to
verify that we really did delete all temporary branches. Another failure
mode though is when the directory didn't exist in the first place, which
can be the case when using an alternate ref backend like the upcoming
"reftable" backend.
Convert the code to instead use git-for-each-ref(1) to verify that there
are no more temporary branches around. This works alright with alternate
ref backends while retaining the sanity check that we really did prune
all temporary branches.
This is a modification in behaviour for the "files" backend because the
empty directory does not get deleted anymore. But arguably we should not
care about such implementation details of the ref backend anyway, and
this should not cause any user-visible change in behaviour.

Piping the output of git commands like git-ls-files to another
command (grep in this case) hides the exit code returned by
these commands. Prevent this by storing the output of git-ls-files
to a temporary file and then "grep-ping" from that file. Replace
grep with test_grep as the latter is more verbose when it fails.

Introduce a boolean configuration option fetch.all which allows to
fetch all available remotes by default. The config option can be
overridden by explicitly specifying a remote or by using --no-all.
The behavior for --all is unchanged and calling git-fetch with --all
and a remote will still result in an error.
Additionally, describe the configuration variable in the config
documentation and implement new tests to cover the expected behavior.
Also add --no-all to the command-line documentation of git-fetch.

We're manually parsing the HEAD reference in git-prompt to figure out
whether it is a symbolic or direct reference. This makes it intimately
tied to the on-disk format we use to store references and will stop
working once we gain additional reference backends in the Git project.
Ideally, we would refactor the code to exclusively use plumbing tools to
read refs such that we do not have to care about the on-disk format at
all. Unfortunately though, spawning processes can be quite expensive on
some systems like Windows. As the Git prompt logic may be executed quite
frequently we try very hard to spawn as few processes as possible. This
refactoring is thus out of question for now.
Instead, condition the logic on the repository's ref format: if the repo
uses the the "files" backend we can continue to use the old logic and
read the respective files from disk directly. If it's anything else,
then we use git-symbolic-ref(1) to read the value of HEAD.
This change makes the Git prompt compatible with the upcoming "reftable"
format.

SUMMARY: LeakSanitizer: 32 byte(s) leaked in 1 allocation(s).
Aborted
What happens is this:
0. We construct a bogus pack with a duplicate object in it and trigger
index-pack.
1. We spawn a bunch of worker threads to resolve deltas (on my system
it is 16 threads).
2. One of the threads sees the duplicate object and bails by calling
exit(), taking down all of the threads. This is expected and is the
point of the test.
3. At the time exit() is called, we may still be spawning threads from
the main process via pthread_create(). LSan hooks thread creation
to update its book-keeping; it has to know where each thread's
stack is (so it can find entry points for reachable memory). So it
calls pthread_getattr_np() to get information about the new thread.
That may allocate memory that must be freed with a matching call to
pthread_attr_destroy(). Probably LSan does that immediately, but
if you're unlucky enough, the exit() will happen while it's between
those two calls, and the allocated pthread_attr_t appears as a
leak.
This isn't a real leak. It's not even in our code, but rather in the
LSan instrumentation code. So we could just ignore it. But the false
positive can cause people to waste time tracking it down.
It's possibly something that LSan could protect against (e.g., cover the
getattr/destroy pair with a mutex, and then in the final post-exit()
check for leaks try to take the same mutex). But I don't know enough
about LSan to say if that's a reasonable approach or not (or if my
analysis is even completely correct).
In the meantime, it's pretty easy to avoid the race by making creation
of the worker threads "atomic". That is, we'll spawn all of them before
letting any of them start to work. That's easy to do because we already
have a work_lock() mutex for handing out that work. If the main process
takes it, then all of the threads will immediately block until we've
finished spawning and released it.
This shouldn't make any practical difference for non-LSan runs. The
thread spawning is quick, and could happen before any worker thread gets
scheduled anyway.
Probably other spots that use threads are subject to the same issues.
But since we have to manually insert locking (and since this really is
kind of a hack), let's not bother with them unless somebody experiences
a similar racy false-positive in practice.

This fixes a regression introduced in ac6d45d11f (commit-graph: move
slab-clearing to close_commit_graph(), 2023-10-03), in which running:
git -c fetch.writeCommitGraph=true fetch --recurse-submodules
multiple times in a freshly cloned repository causes a segfault. What
happens in the second (and subsequent) runs is this:
1. We make a "struct commit" for any ref tips which we're storing
(even if we already have them, they still go into FETCH_HEAD).
Because the first run will have created a commit graph, we'll find
those commits in the graph.
The commit struct is therefore created with a NULL "maybe_tree"
entry, because we can load its oid from the graph later. But to do
that we need to remember that we got the commit from the graph,
which is recorded in a global commit_graph_data_slab object.
2. Because we're using --recurse-submodules, we'll try to fetch each
of the possible submodules. That implies creating a separate
"struct repository" in-process for each submodule, which will
require a later call to repo_clear().
The call to repo_clear() calls raw_object_store_clear(), which in
turn calls close_object_store(), which in turn calls
close_commit_graph(). And the latter frees the commit graph data
slab.
3. Later, when trying to write out a new commit graph, we'll ask for
their tree oid via get_commit_tree_oid(), which will see that the
object is parsed but with a NULL maybe_tree field. We'd then
usually pull it from the graph file, but because the slab was
cleared, we don't realize that we can do so! We end up returning
NULL and segfaulting.
(It seems questionable that we'd write a graph entry for such a
commit anyway, since we know we already have one. I didn't
double-check, but that may simply be another side effect of having
cleared the slab).
The bug is in step (2) above. We should not be clearing the slab when
cleaning up the submodule repository structs. Prior to ac6d45d11f, we
did not do so because it was done inside a helper function that returned
early when it saw NULL. So the behavior change from that commit is that
we'll now _always_ clear the slab via repo_clear(), even if the
repository being closed did not have a commit graph (and thus would have
a NULL commit_graph struct).
The most immediate fix is to add in a NULL check in close_commit_graph(),
making it a true noop when passed in an object_store with a NULL
commit_graph (it's OK to just return early, since the rest of its code
is already a noop when passed NULL). That restores the pre-ac6d45d11f
behavior. And that's what this patch does, along with a test that
exercises it (we already have a test that uses submodules along with
fetch.writeCommitGraph, but the bug only triggers when there is a
subsequent fetch and when that fetch uses --recurse-submodules).
So that fixes the regression in the least-risky way possible.
I do think there's some fragility here that we might want to follow up
on. We have a global commit_graph_data_slab that contains graph
positions, and our global commit structs depend on the that slab
remaining valid. But close_commit_graph() is just about closing _one_
object store's graph. So it's dangerous to call that function and clear
the slab without also throwing away any "struct commit" we might have
parsed that depends on it.
Which at first glance seems like a bug we could already trigger. In the
situation described here, there is no commit graph in the submodule
repository, so our commit graph is NULL (in fact, in our test script
there is no submodule repo at all, so we immediately return from
repo_init() and call repo_clear() only to free up memory). But what
would happen if there was one? Wouldn't we see a non-NULL commit_graph
entry, and then clear the global slab anyway?
The answer is "no", but for very bizarre reasons. Remember that
repo_clear() calls raw_object_store_clear(), which then calls
close_object_store() and thus close_commit_graph(). But before it does
so, raw_object_store_clear() does something else: it frees the commit
graph and sets it to NULL! So by this code path we'll _never_ see a
non-NULL commit_graph struct, and thus never clear the slab.
So it happens to work out. But it still seems questionable to me that we
would clear a global slab (which might still be in use) when closing the
commit graph. This clearing comes from 957ba814bf (commit-graph: when
closing the graph, also release the slab, 2021-09-08), and was fixing a
case where we really did need it to be closed (and in that case we
presumably call close_object_store() more directly).
So I suspect there may still be a bug waiting to happen there, as any
object loaded before the call to close_object_store() may be stranded
with a bogus maybe_tree entry (and thus looking at it after the call
might cause an error). But I'm not sure how to trigger it, nor what the
fix should look like (you probably would need to "unparse" any objects
pulled from the graph). And so this patch punts on that for now in favor
of fixing the recent regression in the most direct way, which should not
have any other fallouts.

Among Git's environment variables, the ones marked as "Boolean"
accept values in a way similar to Boolean configuration variables,
i.e. values like 'yes', 'on', 'true' and positive numbers are
taken as "on" and values like 'no', 'off', 'false' are taken as
"off".
GIT_FLUSH can be used to force Git to use non-buffered I/O when
writing to stdout. It can only accept two values, '1' which causes
Git to flush more often and '0' which makes all output buffered.
Make GIT_FLUSH accept more values besides '0' and '1' by turning it
into a Boolean environment variable, modifying the required logic.

When iterating over records with the merged iterator we put the records
into a priority queue before yielding them to the caller. This means
that we need to allocate the contents of these records before we can
pass them over to the caller.
The handover to the caller is quite inefficient though because we first
deallocate the record passed in by the caller and then copy over the new
record, which requires us to reallocate memory.
Refactor the code to instead transfer ownership of the new record to the
caller. So instead of reallocating all contents, we now release the old
record and then copy contents of the new record into place.
The following benchmark of `git show-ref --quiet` in a repository with
around 350k refs shows a clear improvement. Before:
HEAP SUMMARY:
in use at exit: 21,163 bytes in 193 blocks
total heap usage: 708,058 allocs, 707,865 frees, 36,783,255 bytes allocated

in use at exit: 21,163 bytes in 193 blocks
total heap usage: 357,007 allocs, 356,814 frees, 24,193,602 bytes allocated
This shows that we now have roundabout a single allocation per record
that we're yielding from the iterator. Ideally, we'd also get rid of
this allocation so that the number of allocations doesn't scale with the
number of refs anymore. This would require some larger surgery though
because the memory is owned by the priority queue before transferring it
over to the caller.

In 829231dc20 (reftable/merged: reuse buffer to compute record keys,
2023-12-11), we have refactored the merged iterator to reuse a pair of
long-living strbufs by relying on the fact that `reftable_record_key()`
tries to reuse already allocated strbufs by calling `strbuf_reset()`,
which should give us significantly fewer reallocations compared to the
old code that used on-stack strbufs that are allocated for each and
every iteration. Unfortunately, we called `strbuf_release()` on these
long-living strbufs that we meant to reuse on each iteration, defeating
the optimization.
Fix this performance issue by not releasing those buffers on iteration
anymore, where we instead rely on `merged_iter_close()` to release the
buffers for us.
Using `git show-ref --quiet` in a repository with ~350k refs this leads
to a significant drop in allocations. Before:

Similar to the preceding commit, convert ref records of type "val2" to
store their object IDs in static arrays instead of allocating them for
every single record.
We're using the same benchmark as in the preceding commit, with `git
show-ref --quiet` in a repository with ~350k refs. This time around
though the effects aren't this huge. Before:
HEAP SUMMARY:
in use at exit: 21,163 bytes in 193 blocks
total heap usage: 1,419,040 allocs, 1,418,847 frees, 62,153,868 bytes allocated
After:
HEAP SUMMARY:
in use at exit: 21,163 bytes in 193 blocks
total heap usage: 1,410,148 allocs, 1,409,955 frees, 61,976,068 bytes allocated
This is because "val2"-type records are typically only stored for peeled
tags, and the number of annotated tags in the benchmark repository is
rather low. Still, it can be seen that this change leads to a reduction
of allocations overall, even if only a small one.

When reading ref records of type "val1", we store its object ID in an
allocated array. This results in an additional allocation for every
single ref record we read, which is rather inefficient especially when
iterating over refs.
Refactor the code to instead use an embedded array of `GIT_MAX_RAWSZ`
bytes. While this means that `struct ref_record` is bigger now, we
typically do not store all refs in an array anyway and instead only
handle a limited number of records at the same point in time.
Using `git show-ref --quiet` in a repository with ~350k refs this leads
to a significant drop in allocations. Before:

Each reftable may contain multiple types of blocks for refs, objects and
reflog records, where each of these may have an index that makes it more
efficient to find the records. It was observed that the index for log
records can become corrupted under certain circumstances, where the
first entry of the index points into the object index instead of to the
log records.
As it turns out, this corruption can occur whenever we write a log index
as well as at least one additional index. Writing records and their index
is basically a two-step process:
1. We write all blocks for the corresponding record. Each block that
gets written is added to a list of blocks to index.
2. Once all blocks were written we finish the section. If at least two
blocks have been added to the list of blocks to index then we will
now write the index for those blocks and flush it, as well.
When we have a very large number of blocks then we may decide to write a
multi-level index, which is why we also keep track of the list of the
index blocks in the same way as we previously kept track of the blocks
to index.
Now when we have finished writing all index blocks we clear the index
and flush the last block to disk. This is done in the wrong order though
because flushing the block to disk will re-add it to the list of blocks
to be indexed. The result is that the next section we are about to write
will have an entry in the list of blocks to index that points to the
last block of the preceding section's index, which will corrupt the log
index.
Fix this corruption by clearing the index after having written the last
block.

In 5c086453ff (reftable/stack: perform auto-compaction with
transactional interface, 2023-12-11), we fixed a bug where the
transactional interface to add changes to a reftable stack did not
perform auto-compaction by calling `reftable_stack_auto_compact()` in
`reftable_stack_addition_commit()`. While correct, this change may now
cause us to perform auto-compaction twice in the non-transactional
interface `reftable_stack_add()`:
- It performs auto-compaction by itself.
- It now transitively performs auto-compaction via the transactional
interface.
Remove the first instance so that we only end up doing auto-compaction
once.

In order to compact multiple stacks we iterate through the merged ref
and log records. When there is any error either when reading the records
from the old merged table or when writing the records to the new table
then we break out of the respective loops. When breaking out of the loop
for the ref records though the error code will be overwritten, which may
cause us to inadvertently skip over bad ref records. In the worst case,
this can lead to a compacted stack that is missing records.
Fix the code by using `goto done` instead so that any potential error
codes are properly returned to the caller.

To compute the expected on-disk size of packed objects, we sort the
output of show-index by pack offset and then compute the difference
between adjacent entries using awk. This works but has a few readability
problems:
1. Reading the index in pack order means don't find out the size of an
oid's entry until we see the _next_ entry. So we have to save it to
print later.
We can instead iterate in reverse order, so we compute each oid's
size as we see it.
2. Since the awk invocation is inside a text_expect block, we can't
easily use single-quotes to hold the script. So we use
double-quotes, but then have to escape the dollar signs in the awk
script.
We can swap this out for a shell loop instead (which is made much
easier by the first change).

Introduce a new "extensions.refStorage" extension that allows us to
specify the ref storage format used by a repository. For now, the only
supported format is the "files" format, but this list will likely soon
be extended to also support the upcoming "reftable" format.
There have been discussions on the Git mailing list in the past around
how exactly this extension should look like. One alternative [1] that
was discussed was whether it would make sense to model the extension in
such a way that backends are arbitrarily stackable. This would allow for
a combined value of e.g. "loose,packed-refs" or "loose,reftable", which
indicates that new refs would be written via "loose" files backend and
compressed into "packed-refs" or "reftable" backends, respectively.
It is arguable though whether this flexibility and the complexity that
it brings with it is really required for now. It is not foreseeable that
there will be a proliferation of backends in the near-term future, and
the current set of existing formats and formats which are on the horizon
can easily be configured with the much simpler proposal where we have a
single value, only.
Furthermore, if we ever see that we indeed want to gain the ability to
arbitrarily stack the ref formats, then we can adapt the current
extension rather easily. Given that Git clients will refuse any unknown
value for the "extensions.refStorage" extension they would also know to
ignore a stacked "loose,packed-refs" in the future.
So let's stick with the easy proposal for the time being and wire up the
extension.

The proper hash algorithm and ref storage format that will be used for a
newly initialized repository will be figured out in `init_db()` via
`validate_hash_algorithm()` and `validate_ref_storage_format()`. Until
now though, we never set up the hash algorithm or ref storage format of
`the_repository` accordingly.
There are only two callsites of `init_db()`, one in git-init(1) and one
in git-clone(1). The former function doesn't care for the formats to be
set up properly because it never access the repository after calling the
function in the first place.
For git-clone(1) it's a different story though, as we call `init_db()`
before listing remote refs. While we do indeed have the wrong hash
function in `the_repository` when `init_db()` sets up a non-default
object format for the repository, it never mattered because we adjust
the hash after learning about the remote's hash function via the listed
refs.
So the current state is correct for the hash algo, but it's not for the
ref storage format because git-clone(1) wouldn't know to set it up
properly. But instead of adjusting only the `ref_storage_format`, set
both the hash algo and the ref storage format so that `the_repository`
is in the correct state when `init_db()` exits. This is fine as we will
adjust the hash later on anyway and makes it easier to reason about the
end state of `the_repository`.

In order to discern which ref storage format a repository is supposed to
use we need to start setting up and/or discovering the format. This
needs to happen in two separate code paths.
- The first path is when we create a repository via `init_db()`. When
we are re-initializing a preexisting repository we need to retain
the previously used ref storage format -- if the user asked for a
different format then this indicates an error and we error out.
Otherwise we either initialize the repository with the format asked
for by the user or the default format, which currently is the
"files" backend.
- The second path is when discovering repositories, where we need to
read the config of that repository. There is not yet any way to
configure something other than the "files" backend, so we can just
blindly set the ref storage format to this backend.
Wire up this logic so that we have the ref storage format always readily
available when needed. As there is only a single backend and because it
is not configurable we cannot yet verify that this tracking works as
expected via tests, but tests will be added in subsequent commits. To
countermand this ommission now though, raise a BUG() in case the ref
storage format is not set up properly in `ref_store_init()`.

In order to look up ref storage backends, we're currently using a linked
list of backends, where each backend is expected to set up its `next`
pointer to the next ref storage backend. This is kind of a weird setup
as backends need to be aware of other backends without much of a reason.
Refactor the code so that the array of backends is centrally defined in
"refs.c", where each backend is now identified by an integer constant.
Expose functions to translate from those integer constants to the name
and vice versa, which will be required by subsequent patches.

When calling `git init --separate-git-dir=<new-path>` on a preexisting
repository, we move the Git directory of that repository to the new path
specified by the user. If there are worktrees present in the repository,
we need to repair the worktrees so that their gitlinks point to the new
location of the repository.
This repair logic will load repositories via `get_worktrees()`, which
will enumerate up and initialize all worktrees. Part of initialization
is logic that we resolve their respective worktree HEADs, even though
that information may not actually be needed in the end by all callers.
Although not a problem presently with the file-based reference backend,
it will become a problem with the upcoming reftable backend. In the
context of git-init(1) we do not have a fully-initialized repository set
up via `setup_git_directory()` or friends. Consequently, we do not know
about the repository format when `repair_worktrees()` is called, and
properly setting up all parts of the repositroy in `init_db()` before we
try to repair worktrees is not an easy task. With the introduction of
the reftable backend, we would ultimately try to look up the worktree
HEADs before we have figured out the reference format, which does not
work.
We do not require the worktree HEADs at all to repair worktrees. So
let's fix this issue by skipping over the step that reads them.

A limited number of tests require repositories to have the default
repository format or otherwise they would fail to run, e.g. because they
fail to detect the correct hash function. While the hash function is the
only extension right now that creates problems like this, we are about
to add a second extension for the ref format.
Introduce a new DEFAULT_REPO_FORMAT prereq that can easily be amended
whenever we add new format extensions. Next to making any such changes
easier on us, the prerequisite's name should also help to clarify the
intent better.

Gives all paths builtin objectmode values based on the paths' modes
(one of 100644, 100755, 120000, 040000, 160000). Users may use
this feature to filter by file types. For example a pathspec such as
':(attr:builtin_objectmode=160000)' could filter for submodules without
needing to have `builtin_objectmode=160000` to be set in .gitattributes
for every submodule path.
These values are also reflected in `git check-attr` results.
If the git_attr_direction is set to GIT_ATTR_INDEX or GIT_ATTR_CHECKIN
and a path is not found in the index, the value will be unspecified.
This patch also reserves the builtin_* attribute namespace for objectmode
and any future builtin attributes. Any user defined attributes using this
reserved namespace will result in a warning. This is a breaking change for
any existing builtin_* attributes.
Pathspecs with some builtin_* attribute name (excluding builtin_objectmode)
will behave like any attribute where there are no user specified values.

Memory pool allocations that require a new block and would fill at
least half of it are handled specially. Before 158dfeff3d (mem-pool:
add life cycle management functions, 2018-07-02) they used to be
allocated outside of the pool. This patch made mem_pool_alloc() create
a bespoke block instead, to allow releasing it when the pool gets
discarded.
Unfortunately mem_pool_alloc() returns a pointer to the start of such a
bespoke block, i.e. to the struct mp_block at its top. When the caller
writes to it, the management information gets corrupted. This affects
mem_pool_discard() and -- if there are no other blocks in the pool --
also mem_pool_alloc().
Return the payload pointer of bespoke blocks, just like for smaller
allocations, to protect the management struct.
Also update next_free to mark the block as full. This is only strictly
necessary for the first allocated block, because subsequent ones are
inserted after the current block and never considered for further
allocations, but it's easier to just do it in all cases.
Add a basic unit test to demonstrate the issue by using
mem_pool_calloc() with a tiny block size, which forces the creation of a
bespoke block.
