object-store: prepare read_object_file to deal with any repo
As read_object_file is a widely used function (which is also regularly used
in new code in flight between master..pu), changing its signature is painful
is hard, as other series in flight rely on the original signature. It would
burden the maintainer if we'd just change the signature.
Introduce repo_read_object_file which takes the repository argument, and
hide the original read_object_file as a macro behind
NO_THE_REPOSITORY_COMPATIBILITY_MACROS, similar to e675765235 (diff.c: remove implicit dependency on the_index, 2018-09-21)
Add a coccinelle patch to convert existing callers, but do not apply

push: change needlessly ambiguous example in error
Change an example push added in b55e677522 ("push: introduce new
push.default mode "simple"", 2012-04-24) to always mean the same thing
whether the current setting happens to be "simple" or not.
This error is only emitted under "simple", but message is explaining
to the user that they can get two sorts of different behaviors by
these two invocations.
Let's use "git push <remote> HEAD" which always means push the current
branch name to that remote, instead of "git push <remote>
<current-branch-name>" which will do that under "simple", but is not
guaranteed to do under "upstream".

sha256: add an SHA-256 implementation using libgcrypt
Generally, one gets better performance out of cryptographic routines
written in assembly than C, and this is also true for SHA-256. In
addition, most Linux distributions cannot distribute Git linked against
OpenSSL for licensing reasons.
Most systems with GnuPG will also have libgcrypt, since it is a
dependency of GnuPG. libgcrypt is also faster than the SHA1DC
implementation for messages of a few KiB and larger.
For comparison, on a Core i7-6600U, this implementation processes 16 KiB
chunks at 355 MiB/s while SHA1DC processes equivalent chunks at 337
MiB/s.
In addition, libgcrypt is licensed under the LGPL 2.1, which is
compatible with the GPL. Add an implementation of SHA-256 that uses
libgcrypt.

SHA-1 is weak and we need to transition to a new hash function. For
some time, we have referred to this new function as NewHash. Recently,
we decided to pick SHA-256 as NewHash. The reasons behind the choice of
SHA-256 are outlined in the thread starting at [1] and in the commit
history for the hash function transition document.
Add a basic implementation of SHA-256 based off libtomcrypt, which is in
the public domain. Optimize it and restructure it to meet our coding
standards. Pull in the update and final functions from the SHA-1 block
implementation, as we know these function correctly with all compilers.
This implementation is slower than SHA-1, but more performant
implementations will be introduced in future commits.
Wire up SHA-256 in the list of hash algorithms, and add a test that the
algorithm works correctly.
Note that with this patch, it is still not possible to switch to using
SHA-256 in Git. Additional patches are needed to prepare the code to
handle a larger hash algorithm and further test fixes are needed.
Instead of using hard-coded constants for object sizes, use
the_hash_algo to look them up. In addition, use a function call to look
up the object ID version and produce the correct value. For now, we use
version 1, which means to use the default algorithm used in the rest of
the repository.

cache: make hashcmp and hasheq work with larger hashes
In 183a638b7d ("hashcmp: assert constant hash size", 2018-08-23), we
modified hashcmp to assert that the hash size was always 20 to help it
optimize and inline calls to memcmp. In a future series, we replaced
many calls to hashcmp and oidcmp with calls to hasheq and oideq to
improve inlining further.
However, we want to support hash algorithms other than SHA-1, namely
SHA-256. When doing so, we must handle the case where these values are
32 bytes long as well as 20. Adjust hashcmp to handle two cases:
20-byte matches, and maximum-size matches. Therefore, when we include
SHA-256, we'll automatically handle it properly, while at the same time
teaching the compiler that there are only two possible options to
consider. This will allow the compiler to write the most efficient
possible code.
Copy similar code into hasheq and perform an identical transformation.
At least with GCC 8.2.0, making hasheq defer to hashcmp when there are
two branches prevents the compiler from inlining the comparison, while
the code in this patch is inlined properly. Add a comment to avoid an
accidental performance regression from well-intentioned refactoring.

hex: introduce functions to print arbitrary hashes
Currently, we have functions that turn an arbitrary SHA-1 value or an
object ID into hex format, either using a static buffer or with a
user-provided buffer. Add variants of these functions that can handle
an arbitrary hash algorithm, specified by constant. Update the
documentation as well.
While we're at it, remove the "extern" declaration from this family of
functions, since it's not needed and our style now recommends against
it.
We use the variant taking the algorithm structure pointer as the
internal variant, since taking an algorithm pointer is the easiest way
to handle all of the variants in use.
Note that we maintain these functions because there are hashes which
must change based on the hash algorithm in use but are not object IDs
(such as pack checksums).

push doc: document the DWYM behavior pushing to unqualified <dst>
Document the DWYM behavior that kicks in when pushing to an
unqualified <dst> reference.
This behavior was added in f88395ac23 ("Renaming push.", 2005-08-03)
and f8aae12034 ("push: allow unqualified dest refspecs to DWIM",
2008-04-23), and somewhat documented in bb9fca80ce ("git-push: Update
description of refspecs and add examples", 2007-06-09), but has never
been fully documented.
The closest we got to having documented it was the description in the
commit message for f8aae12034, which I've borrowed from in writing
this documentation.
Let's also refer to this new documentation from the existing
documentation we had (added in bb9fca80ce).

push: test that <src> doesn't DWYM if <dst> is unqualified
Add a test asserting that "git push origin <src>:<dst>" where <src> is
a branch, tag, tree or blob in refs/remotes/* doesn't DWYM when <dst>
is unqualified. This has never been the case, but there haven't been
any tests for this behavior.
See f88395ac23 ("Renaming push.", 2005-08-03), bb9fca80ce ("git-push:
Update description of refspecs and add examples", 2007-06-09) and f8aae12034 ("push: allow unqualified dest refspecs to DWIM",
2008-04-23) which are most relevant commits that have changed or
documented the behavior of the DWYM feature in the past.
These tests were originally meant to lead up to a patch that made
refs/remotes/* on the LHS imply refs/heads/* on the RHS, see [1]. That
patch proved controversial and may not ever land in git.git, but we
should have the tests that remind us what the current behavior is in
case it's ever changed.
Add an advice to the recently improved error message added in f8aae12034 ("push: allow unqualified dest refspecs to DWIM",
2008-04-23).
Now with advice.pushUnqualifiedRefName=true (on by default) we show a
hint about how to proceed:
$ ./git-push avar v2.19.0^{commit}:newbranch -n
error: The destination you provided is not a full refname (i.e.,
starting with "refs/"). We tried to guess what you meant by:
- Looking for a ref that matches 'newbranch' on the remote side.
- Checking if the <src> being pushed ('v2.19.0^{commit}')
is a ref in "refs/{heads,tags}/". If so we add a corresponding
refs/{heads,tags}/ prefix on the remote side.
Neither worked, so we gave up. You must fully qualify the ref.
hint: The <src> part of the refspec is a commit object.
hint: Did you mean to create a new branch by pushing to
hint: 'v2.19.0^{commit}:refs/heads/newbranch'?
error: failed to push some refs to 'git@github.com:avar/git.git'
When trying to push a tag, tree or a blob we suggest that perhaps the
user meant to push them to refs/tags/ instead.
The if/else duplication for all of OBJ_{COMMIT,TAG,TREE,BLOB} is
unfortunate, but is required to correctly mark the messages for

push: improve the error shown on unqualified <dst> push
Improve the error message added in f8aae12034 ("push: allow

change looks like this:
$ git push avar v2.19.0^{commit}:newbranch -n
error: unable to push to unqualified destination: newbranch
The destination refspec neither matches an existing ref on the remote nor
begins with refs/, and we are unable to guess a prefix based on the source ref.
error: failed to push some refs to 'git@github.com:avar/git.git'
This message needed to be read very carefully to spot how to fix the
error, i.e. to push to refs/heads/newbranch. Now the message will look
like this instead:
$ ./git-push avar v2.19.0^{commit}:newbranch -n
error: The destination you provided is not a full refname (i.e.,
starting with "refs/"). We tried to guess what you meant by:
- Looking for a ref that matches 'newbranch' on the remote side.
- Checking if the <src> being pushed ('v2.19.0^{commit}')
is a ref in "refs/{heads,tags}/". If so we add a corresponding
refs/{heads,tags}/ prefix on the remote side.
Neither worked, so we gave up. You must fully qualify the ref.
error: failed to push some refs to 'git@github.com:avar/git.git'
This improvement is the result of on-list discussion in [1] and [2],
as well as my own fixes / reformatting / phrasing on top.
The suggestion by Jeff on-list was to make that second bullet point
"Looking at the refname of the local source.". The version being added
here is more verbose, but also more accurate. saying "local source"
could refer to any ref in the local refstore, including something in
refs/remotes/*. A later change will teach guess_ref() to infer a ref
type from remote-tracking refs, so let's not confuse the two.
While I'm at it, add a "TRANSLATORS" comment since the message has
gotten more complex and it's not as clear what the two %s's refer to.
i18n: remote.c: mark error(...) messages for translation
Mark up the error(...) messages in remote.c for translation. The likes
of "unable to push to unqualified destination" are relatively big
parts of the UI, i.e. error messages shown when "git push" fails.
I don't think any of these are plumbing, an the entire test suite
passes when running the tests with GIT_GETTEXT_POISON=1 (after
building with GETTEXT_POISON).

range-diff: make diff option behavior (e.g. --stat) consistent
Make the behavior when diff options (e.g. "--stat") are passed
consistent with how "diff" behaves.
Before 73a834e9e2 ("range-diff: relieve callers of low-level
configuration burden", 2018-07-22) running range-diff with "--stat"
would produce stat output and the diff output, as opposed to how
"diff" behaves where once "--stat" is specified "--patch" also needs
to be provided to emit the patch output.
As noted in a previous change ("range-diff doc: add a section about
output stability", 2018-11-07) the "--stat" output with "range-diff"
is useless at the moment.
But we should behave consistently with "diff" in anticipation of such
output being useful in the future, because it would make for confusing
UI if "diff" and "range-diff" behaved differently when it came to how
they interpret diff options.
The new behavior is also consistent with the existing documentation
added in ba931edd28 ("range-diff: populate the man page",
2018-08-13). See "[...]also accepts the regular diff options[...]" in
git-range-diff(1).

One of the problems with "git checkout" is that it does so many
different things and could confuse people specially when we fail to
handle ambiguation correctly.
One way to help with that is tell the user what sort of operation is
actually carried out. When switching branches, we always print
something unless --quiet, either
- "HEAD is now at ..."
- "Reset branch ..."
- "Already on ..."
- "Switched to and reset ..."
- "Switched to a new branch ..."
- "Switched to branch ..."
Checking out paths however is silent. Print something so that if we
got the user intention wrong, they won't waste too much time to find
that out. For the remaining cases of checkout we now print either
- "Checked out ... paths out of the index"
- "Checked out ... paths out of <abbrev hash>"
Since the purpose of printing this is to help disambiguate. Only do it
when "--" is missing.

checkout: disambiguate dwim tracking branches and local files
When checkout dwim is added in [1], it is restricted to only dwim when
certain conditions are met and fall back to default checkout behavior
otherwise. It turns out falling back could be confusing. One of the
conditions to turn
git checkout frotz
to
git checkout -b frotz origin/frotz
is that frotz must not exist as a file. But when the user comes to
expect "git checkout frotz" to create the branch "frotz" and there
happens to be a file named "frotz", git's silently reverting "frotz"
file content is not helping. This is reported in Git mailing list [2]
and even used as an example of "Git is bad" elsewhere [3].
We normally try to do the right thing, but when there are multiple
"right things" to do, it's best to leave it to the user to decide.
Check this case, ask the user to to disambiguate:
- "git checkout -- foo" will check out path "foo"
- "git checkout foo --" will dwim and create branch "foo" [4]
For users who do not want dwim, use --no-guess. It's useless in this
particular case because "git checkout --no-guess foo --" will just
fail. But it could be used by scripts.
The function `CreateHardLink()` is available in all supported Windows
versions (even since Windows XP), so there is no more need to resolve it
at runtime.

line. But it should only do so when stat width is still default
(i.e. stat_width == 0).
In order to fix this, we should only set stat_width if stat_width is
zero. But it will never be. Commit 071dd0ba43 (format-patch: reduce
patch diffstat width to 72 - 2018-02-01) makes sure that default stat
width will be 72 (ignoring $COLUMNS, but could still be overriden by
--stat). So all we need to do here is drop the assignment.

built-in rebase: reinstate `checkout -q` behavior where appropriate
When we converted a `git checkout -q $onto^0` call to use
`reset_head()`, we inadvertently incurred a change from a twoway_merge
to a oneway_merge, as if we wanted a `git reset --hard` instead.
This has performance ramifications under certain, though, as the
oneway_merge needs to lstat() every single index entry whereas
twoway_merge does not.
So let's go back to the old behavior.

`--exclude` from rev-list and rev-parse fails to exclude references if
the next `--branches`, `--tags` or `--remotes` use the optional
inclusive glob because those options are implemented as particular cases
of `--glob=`, which itself requires that exclude patterns begin with
'refs/'.
But it makes sense for `--branches=glob` and friends to be aware that
exclusions patterns for them shouldn't be 'refs/<type>/' prefixed, the
same way exclude patterns for `--branches` and friends (without the
optional glob) already are.
Let's record in 'refs.c:struct ref_filter' which context the exclude
pattern is tied to, so refs.c:filter_refs() can decide if it should
ignore the prefix when trying to match.

Commit 024aa4696c (fetch-pack.c: use oidset to check existence of loose
object, 2018-03-14) added a cache to avoid calling stat() for a bunch of
loose objects we don't have.
Now that OBJECT_INFO_QUICK handles this caching itself, we can drop the
custom solution.
Note that this might perform slightly differently, as the original code
stopped calling readdir() when we saw more loose objects than there were
refs. So:
1. The old code might have spent work on readdir() to fill the cache,
but then decided there were too many loose objects, wasting that
effort.
2. The new code might spend a lot of time on readdir() if you have a
lot of loose objects, even though there are very few objects to
ask about.
In practice it probably won't matter either way; see the previous commit
for some discussion of the tradeoff.

sha1-file: use loose object cache for quick existence check
In cases where we expect to ask has_sha1_file() about a lot of objects
that we are not likely to have (e.g., during fetch negotiation), we
already use OBJECT_INFO_QUICK to sacrifice accuracy (due to racing with
a simultaneous write or repack) for speed (we avoid re-scanning the pack
directory).
However, even checking for loose objects can be expensive, as we will
stat() each one. On many systems this cost isn't too noticeable, but
stat() can be particularly slow on some operating systems, or due to
network filesystems.
Since the QUICK flag already tells us that we're OK with a slightly
stale answer, we can use that as a cue to look in our in-memory cache of
each object directory. That basically trades an in-memory binary search
for a stat() call.
Note that it is possible for this to actually be _slower_. We'll do a
full readdir() to fill the cache, so if you have a very large number of
loose objects and a very small number of lookups, that readdir() may end
up more expensive.
This shouldn't be a big deal in practice. If you have a large number of
reachable loose objects, you'll already run into performance problems
(which you should remedy by repacking). You may have unreachable objects
which wouldn't otherwise impact performance. Usually these would go away
with the prune step of "git gc", but they may be held for up to 2 weeks
in the default configuration.
So it comes down to how many such objects you might reasonably expect to
have, how much slower is readdir() on N entries versus M stat() calls
(and here we really care about the syscall backing readdir(), like
getdents() on Linux, but I'll just call this readdir() below).
If N is much smaller than M (a typical packed repo), we know this is a
big win (few readdirs() followed by many uses of the resulting cache).
When N and M are similar in size, it's also a win. We care about the
latency of making a syscall, and readdir() should be giving us many
values in a single call. How many?
On Linux, running "strace -e getdents ls" shows a 32k buffer getting 512
entries per call (which is 64 bytes per entry; the name itself is 38
bytes, plus there are some other fields). So we can imagine that this is
always a win as long as the number of loose objects in the repository is
a factor of 500 less than the number of lookups you make. It's hard to
auto-tune this because we don't generally know up front how many lookups
we're going to do. But it's unlikely for this to perform significantly
worse.

object-store: provide helpers for loose_objects_cache
Our object_directory struct has a loose objects cache that all users of
the struct can see. But the only one that knows how to load the cache is
find_short_object_filename(). Let's extract that logic in to a reusable
function.
While we're at it, let's also reset the cache when we re-read the object
directories. This shouldn't have an impact on performance, as re-reads
are meant to be rare (and are already expensive, so we avoid them with
things like OBJECT_INFO_QUICK).
Since the cache is already meant to be an approximation, it's tempting
to skip even this bit of safety. But it's necessary to allow more code
to use it. For instance, fetch-pack explicitly re-reads the object
directory after performing its fetch, and would be confused if we didn't
clear the cache.

sha1-file: use an object_directory for the main object dir
Our handling of alternate object directories is needlessly different
from the main object directory. As a result, many places in the code
basically look like this:
do_something(r->objects->objdir);
for (odb = r->objects->alt_odb_list; odb; odb = odb->next)
do_something(odb->path);
That gets annoying when do_something() is non-trivial, and we've
resorted to gross hacks like creating fake alternates (see
find_short_object_filename()).
Instead, let's give each raw_object_store a unified list of
object_directory structs. The first will be the main store, and
everything after is an alternate. Very few callers even care about the
distinction, and can just loop over the whole list (and those who care
can just treat the first element differently).
A few observations:
- we don't need r->objects->objectdir anymore, and can just
mechanically convert that to r->objects->odb->path
- object_directory's path field needs to become a real pointer rather
than a FLEX_ARRAY, in order to fill it with expand_base_dir()
- we'll call prepare_alt_odb() earlier in many functions (i.e.,
outside of the loop). This may result in us calling it even when our
function would be satisfied looking only at the main odb.
But this doesn't matter in practice. It's not a very expensive
operation in the first place, and in the majority of cases it will
be a noop. We call it already (and cache its results) in
prepare_packed_git(), and we'll generally check packs before loose
objects. So essentially every program is going to call it
immediately once per program.
Arguably we should just prepare_alt_odb() immediately upon setting
up the repository's object directory, which would save us sprinkling
calls throughout the code base (and forgetting to do so has been a
source of subtle bugs in the past). But I've stopped short of that
here, since there are already a lot of other moving parts in this
patch.
- Most call sites just get shorter. The check_and_freshen() functions
are an exception, because they have entry points to handle local and
nonlocal directories separately.

handle alternates paths the same as the main object dir
When we generate loose file paths for the main object directory, the
caller provides a buffer to loose_object_path (formerly sha1_file_name).
The callers generally keep their own static buffer to avoid excessive
reallocations.
But for alternate directories, each struct carries its own scratch
buffer. This is needlessly different; let's unify them.
We could go either direction here, but this patch moves the alternates
struct over to the main directory style (rather than vice-versa).
Technically the alternates style is more efficient, as it avoids
rewriting the object directory name on each call. But this is unlikely
to matter in practice, as we avoid reallocations either way (and nobody
has ever noticed or complained that the main object directory is copying
a few extra bytes before making a much more expensive system call).
And this has the advantage that the reusable buffers are tied to
particular calls, which makes the invalidation rules simpler (for
example, the return value from stat_sha1_file() used to be invalidated
by basically any other object call, but now it is affected only by other
calls to stat_sha1_file()).
We do steal the trick from alt_sha1_path() of returning a pointer to the
filled buffer, which makes a few conversions more convenient.

sha1_file_name(): overwrite buffer instead of appending
The sha1_file_name() function is used to generate the path to a loose
object in the object directory. It doesn't make much sense for it to
append, since the the path we write may be absolute (i.e., you cannot
reliably build up a path with it). Because many callers use it with a
static buffer, they have to strbuf_reset() manually before each call
(and the other callers always use an empty buffer, so they don't care
either way). Let's handle this automatically.
Since we're changing the semantics, let's take the opportunity to give
it a more hash-neutral name (which will also catch any callers from
topics in flight).

The run-command API makes no promises about what is left in a struct
child_process after a command finishes, and it's not safe to simply
reuse it again for a similar command. In particular:
- if you use child->args or child->env_array, they are cleared after
finish_command()
- likewise, start_command() may point child->argv at child->args->argv;
reusing that would lead to accessing freed memory
- the in/out/err may hold pipe descriptors from the previous run
These two calls are _probably_ OK because they do not use any of those
features. But it's only by chance, and may break in the future; let's

remote-curl.c: xcurl_off_t is not portable (on 32 bit platfoms)
When setting
DEVELOPER = 1
DEVOPTS = extra-all
"gcc (Raspbian 6.3.0-18+rpi1+deb9u1) 6.3.0 20170516" errors out with
"comparison is always false due to limited range of data type"
"[-Werror=type-limits]"
It turns out that the function xcurl_off_t() has 2 flavours:
- It gives a warning 32 bit systems, like Linux
- It takes the signed ssize_t as a paramter, but the only caller is using
a size_t (which is typically unsigned these days)
The original motivation of this function is to make sure that sizes > 2GiB
are handled correctly. The curl documentation says:
"For any given platform/compiler curl_off_t must be typedef'ed to a 64-bit
wide signed integral data type"
On a 32 bit system "size_t" can be promoted into a 64 bit signed value
without loss of data, and therefore we may see the
"comparison is always false" warning.
On a 64 bit system it may happen, at least in theory, that size_t is > 2^63,
and then the promotion from an unsigned "size_t" into a signed "curl_off_t"
may be a problem.
One solution to suppress a possible compiler warning could be to remove
the function xcurl_off_t().
However, to be on the very safe side, we keep it and improve it:
- The len parameter is changed from ssize_t to size_t
- A temporally variable "size" is used, promoted int uintmax_t and the compared
with "maximum_signed_value_of_type(curl_off_t)".
Thanks to Junio C Hamano for this hint.

In order to be able to change the type from "unsigned long" into size_t

Upcast all those variables into uintmax_t before they are printed.
