mergetool: fallback to tool when guitool unavailable
In git-difftool, if the tool is called with --gui but `diff.guitool` is

from `merge.guitool` to `merge.tool` if the former is undefined.
If git-difftool, when called with `--gui`, were to use
`get_configured_mergetool` in a future patch, it would also get the
fallback behavior in the following precedence:
The behavior for when difftool or mergetool are called without `--gui`
should be identical with or without this patch.
Note that the search loop could be written as

In git-mergetool, the logic for getting which merge tool to use is
duplicated in git-mergetool--lib, except for the fact that it needs to
know whether the tool was guessed or not.
Rewrite `get_merge_tool` to return whether or not the tool was guessed
through the return code and make git-mergetool call this function
instead of duplicating the logic. Note that 1 was chosen to be the
return code of when a tool is guessed because it seems like a slightly
more abnormal condition than getting a tool that's explicitly specified
but this is completely arbitrary.
Also, let `$GIT_MERGETOOL_GUI` be set to determine whether or not the
guitool will be selected.
This change is not completely backwards compatible as there may be
external users of git-mergetool--lib. However, only one user,
git-diffall[1], was found from searching GitHub and Google, and this
tool is superseded by `git difftool --dir-diff` anyway. It seems very
unlikely that there exists an external caller that would take into
account the return code of `get_merge_tool` as it would always return 0
before this change so this change probably does not affect any external
users.

Enable DEP (Data Execution Prevention) and ASLR (Address Space Layout
Randomization) support. This applies to both 32bit and 64bit builds
and makes it substantially harder to exploit security holes in Git by
offering a much more unpredictable attack surface.
ASLR interferes with GDB's ability to set breakpoints. A similar issue
holds true when compiling with -O2 (in which case single-stepping is
messed up because GDB cannot map the code back to the original source
code properly). Therefore we simply enable ASLR only when an
optimization flag is present in the CFLAGS, using it as an indicator
that the developer does not want to debug in GDB anyway.

In Git for Windows, we use the MSYS2 Bash which inherits a non-standard
PID model from Cygwin's POSIX emulation layer: every MSYS2 process has a
regular Windows PID, and in addition it has an MSYS2 PID (which
corresponds to a shadow process that emulates Unix-style signal
handling).
With the upgrade to the MSYS2 runtime v3.x, this shadow process cannot
be accessed via `OpenProcess()` any longer, and therefore t6500 thought
incorrectly that the process referenced in `gc.pid` (which is not
actually a real `gc` process in this context, but the current shell) no
longer exists.
Let's fix this by making sure that the Windows PID is written into
`gc.pid` in this test script so that `git.exe` is able to understand
that that process does indeed still exist.

Make fread/fwrite-like functions in http.c more like fread/fwrite.
The fread/fwrite-like functions in http.c, namely fread_buffer,
fwrite_buffer, fwrite_null, fwrite_sha1_file all return the
multiplication of the size and number of items they are being given.
Practically speaking, it doesn't matter, because in all contexts where
those functions are used, size is 1.
But those functions being similar to fread and fwrite (the curl API is
designed around being able to use fread and fwrite directly), it might
be preferable to make them behave like fread and fwrite, which, from
the fread/fwrite manual page, is:
On success, fread() and fwrite() return the number of items read
or written. This number equals the number of bytes transferred
only when size is 1. If an error occurs, or the end of the file
is reached, the return value is a short item count (or zero).

As noted in preceding commits setting GIT_TEST_INSTALLED has never
been supported or documented, and as noted in an earlier t/perf/README
change to the extent that it's been documented nobody's notices that
the example hasn't worked since 3c8f12c96c ("test-lib: reorder and
include GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS a lot earlier", 2012-06-24).
We could directly support GIT_TEST_INSTALLED for invocations without
the "run" script, such as:
But while not having this "error" will "work", it won't write the the
resulting "test-results/*" files to the right place, and thus a
subsequent call to aggregate.perl won't work as expected.
Let's just tell the user that they need to use the "run" script,
which'll correctly deal with this and set the right
PERF_RESULTS_PREFIX.
If someone's in desperate need of bypassing "run" for whatever reason
they can trivially do so by setting "PERF_SET_GIT_TEST_INSTALLED", but
not we won't have people who expect GIT_TEST_INSTALLED to just work
wondering why their aggregation doesn't work, even though they're
running the right "git".
perf tests: add "bindir" prefix to git tree test results
Change the output file names in test-results/ to be
"test-results/bindir_<munged dir>" rather than just
"test-results/<munged dir>".
This is for consistency with the "build_" directories we have for
built revisions, i.e. "test-results/build_<SHA-1>".
There's no user-visible functional changes here, it just makes it
easier to see at a glance what "test-results" files are of what "type"
as they're all explicitly grouped together now, and to grep this code
to find both the run_dirs_helper() implementation and its
corresponding aggregate.perl code.
Note that we already guarantee that the rest of the
PERF_RESULTS_PREFIX is an absolute path, and since it'll start with
e.g. "/" which we munge to "_" we'll up with a readable string like
"bindir_home_avar[...]".
perf-lib.sh: remove GIT_TEST_INSTALLED from perf-lib.sh
Follow-up my preceding change which fixed the immediate "./run
<revisions>" regression in 0baf78e7bc ("perf-lib.sh: rely on
test-lib.sh for --tee handling", 2019-03-15) and entirely get rid of
GIT_TEST_INSTALLED from perf-lib.sh (and aggregate.perl).
As noted in that change the dance we're doing with GIT_TEST_INSTALLED
perf-lib.sh isn't necessary, but there I was doing the most minimal
set of changes to quickly fix a regression.
But it's much simpler to never deal with the "GIT_TEST_INSTALLED" we
were setting in perf-lib.sh at all. Instead the run_dirs_helper() sets
the previously inferred $PERF_RESULTS_PREFIX directly.
Setting this at the callsite that's already best positioned to
exhaustively know about all the different cases we need to handle
where PERF_RESULTS_PREFIX isn't what we want already (the empty
string) makes the most sense. In one-off cases like:
We'll just do the right thing because PERF_RESULTS_PREFIX will be
empty, and test-lib.sh takes care of finding where our git is.
Any refactoring of this code needs to change both the shell code and
the Perl code in aggregate.perl, because when running e.g.:
./run ../../ -- <test>
The "../../" path to a relative bindir needs to be munged to a
filename containing the results, and critically aggregate.perl does
not get passed the path to those aggregations, just "../..".
Let's fix cases where aggregate.perl would print e.g. ".." in its
report output for this, and "git" for "/home/avar/g/git", i.e. it
would always pick the last element. Now'll always print the full path
instead.
This also makes the code sturdier, e.g. you can feed "../.." to
"./run" and then an absolute path to the aggregate.perl script, as
long as the absolute path and "../.." resolved to the same directory
printing the aggregation will work.
Also simplify the "[_*]" on the RHS of "tr -c", we're trimming
everything to "_", so we don't need that.
perf-lib.sh: make "./run <revisions>" use the correct gits
Fix a really bad regression in 0baf78e7bc ("perf-lib.sh: rely on
test-lib.sh for --tee handling", 2019-03-15). Since that change all
runs of different <revisions> of git have used the git found in the
user's $PATH, e.g. /usr/bin/git instead of the <revision> we just
built and wanted to performance test.
The problem starts with GIT_TEST_INSTALLED not working like our
non-perf tests with the "run" script. I.e. you can't run performance
tests against a given installed git. Instead we expect to use it
ourselves to point GIT_TEST_INSTALLED to the <revision> we just built.
However, we had been relying on '$(cd "$GIT_TEST_INSTALLED" && pwd)'
to resolve that relative $GIT_TEST_INSTALLED to an absolute
path *before* test-lib.sh was loaded, in cases where it was
e.g. "build/<rev>/bin-wrappers" and we wanted "<abs_path>build/...".
This change post-dates another proposed solution by a few days[1], I
didn't notice that version when I initially wrote this. I'm doing the
most minimal thing to solve the regression here, a follow-up change
will move this result prefix selection logic entirely into the "run"
script.
This makes e.g. these cases all work:
./run . $PWD/../../ origin/master origin/next HEAD -- <tests>
As well as just a plain one-off:
./run <tests>
And, since we're passing down the new GIT_PERF_DIR_MYDIR_REL we make
sure the bug relating to aggregate.perl not finding our files as
described in 0baf78e7bc doesn't happen again.
What *doesn't* work is setting GIT_TEST_INSTALLED to a relative path,
this will subtly fail in test-lib.sh. This has always been the case
even before 0baf78e7bc, and as documented in t/README the
GIT_TEST_INSTALLED variable should be set to an absolute path (needs
to be set "to the bindir", which is always absolute), and the "perf"
framework expects to munge it itself.
Perhaps that should be dealt with in the future to allow manually
setting GIT_TEST_INSTALLED, but as a preceding commit showed the user
can just use the "run" script, which'll also pick the right output

Remove the setting of the "environment" from the --codespeed output. I
don't think this is useful, and it helps with a later refactoring
where we GIT_TEST_INSTALLED stop munging/reading GIT_TEST_INSTALLED in
the perf tests in so many places.
This was added in 05eb1c37ed ("perf/aggregate: implement codespeed
JSON output", 2018-01-05), but since the "run" scripts uses
"GIT_TEST_INSTALLED" internally this was only ever useful for one-off
runs of a single revision as all the "environment" values would be
ones for whatever directory the "run" script ran last.
Let's instead fall back on the "uname -r" case, which is the sort of
thing the environment should be set to, not something that duplicates
other parts of the codpseed output. For setting the "environment" to
something custom the perf.repoName variable can be used. See 19cf57a92e ("perf/run: read GIT_PERF_REPO_NAME from perf.repoName",
2018-01-05).
perf README: correct docs for 3c8f12c96c regression
Since 3c8f12c96c ("test-lib: reorder and include GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS a
lot earlier", 2012-06-24) the suggested advice of overriding
GIT_BUILD_DIR has not worked. We've printed a hard error like this
given e.g. GIT_BUILD_DIR=/home/avar/g/git:
/bin-wrappers/git is not executable; using GIT_EXEC_PATH
error: You haven't built things yet, have you?
Let's just suggest that the user run other gits via the "run"
script. That'll do the right thing for setting the path to the other
git, and running the "aggregate.perl" scripts afterwards will work.
As an aside, if setting GIT_BUILD_DIR had still worked, then the
MODERN_GIT feature/fix added in 1a0962dee5 ("t/perf: fix regression in
testing older versions of git", 2016-06-22) would have broke.

Instead, a user had to continue and read the description in order to

Since the [] notation for an optional argument is common-knowledge in

The multi-pack-index allows searching for objects across multiple
packs using one object list. The original design gains many of
these performance benefits by keeping the packs in the
multi-pack-index out of the packed_git list.
Unfortunately, this has one major drawback. If the multi-pack-index
covers thousands of packs, and a command loads many of those packs,
then we can hit the limit for open file descriptors. The
close_one_pack() method is used to limit this resource, but it
only looks at the packed_git list, and uses an LRU cache to prevent
thrashing.
Instead of complicating this close_one_pack() logic to include
direct references to the multi-pack-index, simply add the packs
opened by the multi-pack-index to the packed_git list. This
immediately solves the file-descriptor limit problem, but requires
some extra steps to avoid performance issues or other problems:
1. Create a multi_pack_index bit in the packed_git struct that is
one if and only if the pack was loaded from a multi-pack-index.
2. Skip packs with the multi_pack_index bit when doing object
lookups and abbreviations. These algorithms already check the
multi-pack-index before the packed_git struct. This has a very
small performance hit, as we need to walk more packed_git
structs. This is acceptable, since these operations run binary
search on the other packs, so this walk-and-ignore logic is
very fast by comparison.
3. When closing a multi-pack-index file, do not close its packs,
as those packs will be closed using close_all_packs(). In some
cases, such as 'git repack', we run 'close_midx()' without also
closing the packs, so we need to un-set the multi_pack_index bit
in those packs. This is necessary, and caught by running
t6501-freshen-objects.sh with GIT_TEST_MULTI_PACK_INDEX=1.
To manually test this change, I inserted trace2 logging into
close_pack_fd() and set pack_max_fds to 10, then ran 'git rev-list
--all --objects' on a copy of the Git repo with 300+ pack-files and
a multi-pack-index. The logs verified the packs are closed as
we read them beyond the file descriptor limit.

Much of the multi-pack-index code focuses on the multi_pack_index
struct, and so we only pass a pointer to the current one. However,
we will insert a dependency on the packed_git linked list in a
future change, so we will need a repository reference. Inserting
these parameters is a significant enough change to split out.

branch: make create_branch accept a merge base rev
When we ran something like
$ git checkout -b test master...
it would fail with the message
fatal: Not a valid object name: 'master...'.
This was caused by the call to `create_branch` where `start_name` is
expected to be a valid rev. However, git-checkout allows the branch to
be a valid _merge base_ rev (i.e. with a "...") so it was possible for
an invalid rev to be passed in.
Make `create_branch` accept a merge base rev so that this case does not
error out.
As a side-effect, teach git-branch how to handle merge base revs as
well.

Before, in t2018, if do_checkout failed to create `branch2`, the next
test-case would run `git branch -D branch2` but then fail because it was
expecting `branch2` to exist, even though it doesn't. As a result, an
early failure could cause a cascading failure of tests.
Make test-case responsible for cleaning up their own branches so that
future tests can start with a sane environment.

parse-options: don't emit "ambiguous option" for aliases
Change the option parsing machinery so that e.g. "clone --recurs ..."
doesn't error out because "clone" understands both "--recursive" and
"--recurse-submodules" to mean the same thing.
Initially "clone" just understood --recursive until the
--recurses-submodules alias was added in ccdd3da652 ("clone: Add the
--recurse-submodules option as alias for --recursive",
2010-11-04). Since bb62e0a99f ("clone: teach --recurse-submodules to
optionally take a pathspec", 2017-03-17) the longer form has been
promoted to the default.
But due to the way the options parsing machinery works this resulted
in the rather absurd situation of:
$ git clone --recurs [...]
error: ambiguous option: recurs (could be --recursive or --recurse-submodules)
Add OPT_ALIAS() to express this link between two or more options and use
it in git-clone. Multiple aliases of an option could be written as
The current implementation is not exactly optimal in this case. But we
can optimize it when it becomes a problem. So far we don't even have two
aliases of any option.

In our "make coccicheck" rule, we currently feed each source file to its
own individual invocation of spatch. This has a few downsides:
- it repeats any overhead spatch has for starting up and reading the
patch file
- any included header files may get processed from multiple
invocations. This is slow (we see the same header files multiple
times) and may produce a resulting patch with repeated hunks (which
cannot be applied without further cleanup)
Ideally we'd just invoke a single instance of spatch per rule-file and
feed it all source files. But spatch can be rather memory hungry when
run in this way. I measured the peak RSS going from ~90MB for a single
file to ~1900MB for all files. Multiplied by multiple rule files being
processed at the same time (for "make -j"), this can make things slower
or even cause them to fail (e.g., this is reported to happen on our
Travis builds).
Instead, let's provide a tunable knob. We'll leave the default at "1",
but it can be cranked up to "999" for maximum CPU/memory tradeoff, or
people can find points in between that serve their particular machines.
Here are a few numbers running a single rule via:
SIZES='1 4 16 999'
RULE=contrib/coccinelle/object_id.cocci
for i in $SIZES; do
make clean
/usr/bin/time -o $i.out --format='%e | %U | %S | %M' \
make $RULE.patch SPATCH_BATCH_SIZE=$i
done
for i in $SIZES; do
printf '%4d | %s\n' $i "$(cat $i.out)"
done
The implementation is done with xargs, which should be widely available;
it's in POSIX, we rely on it already in the test suite. And "coccicheck"
is really a developer-only tool anyway, so it's not a big deal if
obscure systems can't run it.

*.[ch]: remove extern from function declarations using sed
There has been a push to remove extern from function declarations.

This was done by running the following on my system with sed 4.2.2:
Files under `compat/` are intentionally excluded as some are directly
copied from external sources and we should avoid churning them as much
as possible.
Then, leftover instances of extern were found by running
$ git grep -w -C3 extern \*.{c,h}
and manually checking the output. No other instances were found.
Note that the regex used specifically excludes function variables which
_should_ be left as extern.
Not the most elegant way to do it but it gets the job done.

We don't cover the partial clone feature at all in t/perf. Let's at
least run a few basic tests so that we'll notice any regressions.
We'll do a no-blob clone, and split it into two parts: the actual object
transfer, and the subsequent checkout (which will of course require
another transfer to get the blobs). That will help us more clearly
assess the performance of each.
There are obviously a lot more possibilities besides just a no-blob
partial clone, but this should serve as a canary that alerts us to any
generic slow-downs (and we can add more tests later for cases that
aren't exercised here).
There are a few non-ideal things here that make this not an entirely
accurate test, but are probably OK for our purposes:
1. We have to do some extra prep/cleanup work inside the timing tests,
since they impact the on-disk state and the perf harness may run
each one multiple times.
In practice this is probably OK, since these bits should be much
less expensive than the operations we are measuring.
2. The clone time is likely to be dominated by the server's object
enumeration. In the real world, a repo large enough to drive people
to partial clones is likely to have reachability bitmaps enabled.
And in the opposite direction, our object transfer is happening at
the speed of a local pipe, whereas in the real world it would
bottle-neck on the network.
So any percentage speedups should be taken with a grain of salt.
But hopefully any regressions will produce enough of an effect to
be noticeable.
This script also demonstrates the recent improvement from dfa33a298d

On Mac's HFS where git sets core.precomposeUnicode to true automatically
by git init/clone, when a user creates a simple unicode refname (in NFC
format) such as españa:
$ git branch españa
different commands would display the branch name differently. For
example, git branch, git log --decorate, and git fast-export all used
65 73 70 61 c3 b1 61 (or "espa\xc3\xb1a")
(NFC form) while show-ref would use
65 73 70 61 6e cc 83 61 (or "espan\xcc\x83a")
(NFD form). A stress test for git filter-repo was tripped up by this
inconsistency, though digging in I found that the problems could
compound; for example, if the user ran
$ git pack-refs --all
and then tried to check out the branch, they would be met with:
$ git checkout españa
error: pathspec 'españa' did not match any file(s) known to git
$ git checkout españa --
fatal: invalid reference: españa
$ git branch
españa
* master
Note that the user could run the `git branch` command first and copy and
paste the `españa` portion of the output and still see the same two
errors. Also, if the user added --no-prune to the pack-refs command,
then they would see three branches: master, españa, and españa (those
last two are NFC vs. NFD forms, even if they render the same).
Further, if the user had the `españa` branch checked out before
running `git pack-refs --all`, the user would be greeted with (note
that I'm trimming trailing output with an ellipsis):
$ git rev-parse HEAD
fatal: ambiguous argument 'HEAD': unknown revision or path...
$ git status
On branch españa
No commits yet...
Or worse, if the user didn't check this stuff first, running `git
commit` will create a new commit with all changes of all of history
being squashed into it.
In addition to pack-refs, one could also get into this state with
upload-pack or anything that calls either pack-refs or upload-pack (e.g.
gc or clone).
Add code in a few places (pack-refs, show-ref, upload-pack) to check and
honor the setting of core.precomposeUnicode to avoid these bugs.
