pack.h: define largest possible encoded object size
Several callers use fixed buffers for storing the pack
object header, and they've picked 10 as a magic number. This
is reasonable, since it handles objects up to 2^67. But
let's give them a constant so it's clear that the number
isn't pulled out of thin air.

The encode_in_pack_object_header() writes a variable-length
header to an output buffer, but it doesn't actually know
long the buffer is. At first glance, this looks like it
might be possible to overflow.
In practice, this is probably impossible. The smallest
buffer we use is 10 bytes, which would hold the header for
an object up to 2^67 bytes. Obviously we're not likely to
see such an object, but we might worry that an object could
lie about its size (causing us to overflow before we realize
it does not actually have that many bytes). But the argument
is passed as a uintmax_t. Even on systems that have __int128
available, uintmax_t is typically restricted to 64-bit by
the ABI.
So it's unlikely that a system exists where this could be
exploited. Still, it's easy enough to use a normal out/len
pair and make sure we don't write too far. That protects the
hypothetical 128-bit system, makes it harder for callers to
accidentally specify a too-small buffer, and makes the
resulting code easier to audit.
Note that the one caller in fast-import tried to catch such
a case, but did so _after_ the call (at which point we'd
have already overflowed!). This check can now go away.

When we have to write a sha1 with a newline, we do so by
copying both into a single buffer, so that we can issue a
single write() call.
We use snprintf but don't bother to check the output, since
we know it will fit. However, we should use xsnprintf() in
such a case so that we're notified if our assumption turns
out to be wrong (and to make it easier to audit for
unchecked snprintf calls).

ref-filter: add --no-contains option to tag/branch/for-each-ref
Change the tag, branch & for-each-ref commands to have a --no-contains
option in addition to their longstanding --contains options.
This allows for finding the last-good rollout tag given a known-bad
<commit>. Given a hypothetically bad commit cf5c7253e0, the git
version to revert to can be found with this hacky two-liner:
As the filtering machinery is shared between the tag, branch &
for-each-ref commands, implement this for those commands too. A
practical use for this with "branch" is e.g. finding branches which
were branched off between v2.8.0 and v2.10.0:
The "describe" command also has a --contains option, but its semantics
are unrelated to what tag/branch/for-each-ref use --contains for. A
--no-contains option for "describe" wouldn't make any sense, other
than being exactly equivalent to not supplying --contains at all,
which would be confusing at best.
Add a --without option to "tag" as an alias for --no-contains, for
consistency with --with and --contains. The --with option is
undocumented, and possibly the only user of it is
Junio (<xmqqefy71iej.fsf@gitster.mtv.corp.google.com>). But it's
trivial to support, so let's do that.
The additions to the the test suite are inverse copies of the
corresponding --contains tests. With this change --no-contains for
tag, branch & for-each-ref is just as well tested as the existing
--contains option.
In addition to those tests, add a test for "tag" which asserts that
--no-contains won't find tree/blob tags, which is slightly
unintuitive, but consistent with how --contains works & is documented.

tag: implicitly supply --list given another list-like option
Change the "tag" command to implicitly turn on its --list mode when
provided with a list-like option such as --contains, --points-at etc.
This is for consistency with how "branch" works. When "branch" is
given a list-like option, such as --contains, it implicitly provides
--list. Before this change "tag" would error out on those sorts of
invocations. I.e. while both of these worked for "branch":
git tag --contains v2.8.0 '*rc*'
git tag --list --contains v2.8.0 '*rc*'
Now "tag", like "branch", will implicitly supply --list when a
list-like option is provided, and no other conflicting non-list
options (such as -d) are present on the command-line.
Reveals that there was no good reason for not allowing this in the
first place. The --contains option added in 32c35cfb1e ("git-tag: Add
--contains option", 2009-01-26) made this an error. All the other
subsequent list-like options that were added copied its pattern of
making this usage an error.
The only tests that break as a result of this change are tests that
were explicitly checking that this "branch-like" usage wasn't
permitted. Change those failing tests to check that this invocation
mode is permitted, add extra tests for the list-like options we
weren't testing, and tests to ensure that e.g. we don't toggle the
list mode in the presence of other conflicting non-list options.
With this change errors messages such as "--contains option is only
allowed with -l" don't make sense anymore, since options like
--contain turn on -l. Instead we error out when list-like options such
as --contain are used in conjunction with conflicting options such as
-d or -v.

Change the documentation for --list so that it's described as a
toggle, not as an option that takes a <pattern> as an argument.
Junio initially documented this in b867c7c23a ("git-tag: -l to list
tags (usability).", 2006-02-17), but later Jeff King changed "tag" to
accept multiple patterns in 588d0e834b ("tag: accept multiple patterns
for --list", 2011-06-20).
However, documenting this as "-l <pattern>" was never correct, as
these both worked before Jeff's change:
git tag -l 'v*'
git tag 'v*' -l
One would expect an option that was documented like that to only
accept:
git tag --list
git tag --list 'v*rc*'
And after Jeff's change, one that took multiple patterns:
git tag --list 'v*rc*' --list '*2.8*'
But since it's actually a toggle all of these work as well, and
produce identical output to the last example above:
git tag --list 'v*rc*' '*2.8*'
git tag --list 'v*rc*' '*2.8*' --list --list --list
git tag --list 'v*rc*' '*2.8*' --list -l --list -l --list
Now the documentation is more in tune with how the "branch" command
describes its --list option since commit cddd127b9a ("branch:
introduce --list option", 2011-08-28).
Change the test suite to assert that these invocations work for the
cases that weren't already being tested for.

giving 2 threads with 2000 entries each. It will then
run both the single-threaded (1x4000) and the multi-threaded

name-hash: perf improvement for lazy_init_name_hash
Improve performance of lazy_init_name_hash() when
ignore_case is set. Teach name-hash to build the
istate.name_hash and istate.dir_hash simultaneously
using a forward-diving technique on the pathname
of the index_entry, rather than adding name_hash
entries and then searching backwards in the pathname
for parent directories.
This borrows algorithm ideas from clear_ce_flags_{1,dir}.
Multiple threads are used with the new algorithm to
speed hashmap construction.
This new code path is only used when threads are present
(a compiler settings) and when the index is large enough
to warrant the pthread complexity.
The code in clear_ce_flags_dir() uses a linear search to
find the adjacent index entries with the same prefix; a
binary search is used here handle_range_dir() to further
speed things up.

Jan Palus noticed that some here-doc are spelled incorrectly,
resulting the entire remainder of the test snippet being slurped
into the "expect" file as if it were data, e.g. in this sequence
the last command of the test is "cat" that sends everything to
'expect' and succeeds.
Fixing these issues in t7004 and t7030 reveals that "git tag -v"
and "git verify-tag" with their --format option do not work as the
test was expecting originally. Instead of showing both valid tags
and tags with incorrect signatures on their output, tags that do not
pass verification are omitted from the output. Another breakage that
is uncovered is that these tests must be restricted to environment
where gpg is available.
Arguably, that is a safer behaviour, and because the format
specifiers like %(tag) do not have a way to show if the signature
verifies correctly, the command with the --format option cannot be
used to get a list of tags annotated with their signature validity
anyway.
For now, let's fix the here-doc syntax, update the expectation to
match the reality, and update the test prerequisite.
Maybe later when we extend the --format language available to "git
tag -v" and "git verify-tag" to include things like "%(gpg:status)",
we may want to change the behaviour so that piping a list of tag
names into
becomes a good way to produce such a list, but that is a separate
topic.

completion: fill COMPREPLY directly when completing refs
__gitcomp_nl() iterates over all the possible completion words it gets
as argument
- filtering matching words,
- appending a trailing space to each matching word (in all but two
cases),
- prepending a prefix to each matching word (when completing words
after e.g. '--option=<TAB>' or 'master..<TAB>'), and
- adding each matching word to the COMPREPLY array.
This takes a while when a lot of refs are passed to __gitcomp_nl().
The previous changes in this series ensure that __git_refs() lists
only refs matching the current word to be completed, making a second
filtering in __gitcomp_nl() redundant.
Adding the necessary prefix and suffix could be done in __git_refs()
as well:
- When refs come from 'git for-each-ref', then that prefix and
suffix could be added much more efficiently using a 'git
for-each-ref' format containing said prefix and suffix. Care
should be taken, though, because that prefix might contain
'for-each-ref' format specifiers as part of the left hand side of
a '..' range or '...' symmetric difference notation or
fetch/push/etc. refspec, e.g. 'git log "evil-%(refname)..br<TAB>'.
Doubling every '%' in the prefix will prevent 'git for-each-ref'
from interpolating any of those contained specifiers.
- When refs come from 'git ls-remote', then that prefix and suffix
can be added in the shell loop that has to process 'git
ls-remote's output anyway.
- Finally, the prefix and suffix can be added to that handful of
potentially matching symbolic and pseudo refs right away in the
shell loop listing them.
And then all what is still left to do is to assign a bunch of
newline-separated words to a shell array, which can be done without a
shell loop iterating over each word, basically making all of
__gitcomp_nl() unnecessary for refs completion.
Add the helper function __gitcomp_direct() to fill the COMPREPLY array
with prefiltered and preprocessed words without any additional
processing, without a shell loop, with just one single compound
assignment. Modify __git_refs() to accept prefix and suffix
parameters and add them to each and every listed ref as described
above. Modify __git_complete_refs() to pass the prefix and suffix
parameters to __git_refs() and to feed __git_refs()'s output to
__gitcomp_direct() instead of __gitcomp_nl().

listed ref to remove the remote's name from the remote branches, i.e.
the leading path component from the short ref. When listing refs from
a configured remote repository, '| sed s///' is used for the same
purpose.
Let 'git for-each-ref' strip one more leading path component from the
refs, i.e. use the format 'refname:strip=3' instead of '=2', making
that parameter expansion and 'sed' execution unnecessary.
This speeds up refs completion for 'git checkout'. Uniquely
completing a branch for 'git checkout maste<TAB>' in a repo with 100k
remote branches, all packed, best of five:

completion: let 'for-each-ref' and 'ls-remote' filter matching refs
When completing refs, several __git_refs() code paths list all the
refs from the refs/{heads,tags,remotes}/ hierarchy and then
__gitcomp_nl() iterates over those refs in a shell loop to filter out
refs not matching the current ref to be completed. This comes with a
considerable performance penalty when a repository contains a lot of
refs but the current ref can be uniquely completed or when only a
handful of refs match the current ref.
Reduce the number of iterations in __gitcomp_nl() from the number of
refs to the number of matching refs by specifying appropriate globbing
patterns to 'git for-each-ref' and 'git ls-remote' to list only those
refs that match the current ref to be completed. However, do so only
when the ref to match is explicitly given as parameter, because the
current word on the command line might contain a prefix like
'--option=' or 'branch..'. The __git_complete_refs() and
__git_complete_fetch_refspecs() helpers introduced previously in this
patch series already call __git_refs() specifying this current ref
parameter, so all their callsites, i.e. all places in the completion
script doing refs completion, can benefit from this optimization.
Furthermore, list only those symbolic and pseudo refs that match the
current ref to be completed. Though it doesn't matter at all in
itself performance-wise, it will allow us further significant
optimizations later in this series.
This speeds up refs completion considerably when there are a lot of
non-matching refs to be filtered out. Uniquely completing a branch in
a repository with 100k local branches, all packed, best of five:

When the completion script lists short refs it does so using the 'git
for-each-ref' format 'refname:short', which makes sure that all listed
refs are unambiguous. While disambiguating refs is technically
correct in this case, as opposed to the cases discussed in the
previous patch, this disambiguation involves several stat() syscalls
for each ref, thus, unfortunately, comes at a steep cost especially on
Windows and/or when there are a lot of refs to be listed. A user of
Git for Windows reported[1] 'git checkout <TAB>' taking ~11 seconds in
a repository with just about 4000 refs.
However, it's questionable whether ambiguous refs are really that bad
to justify that much extra cost:
- Ambiguous refs are not that common,
- even if a repository contains ambiguous refs, they only hurt when
the user actually happens to want to do something with one of the
ambiguous refs, and
- the issue can be easily circumvented by renaming those ambiguous
refs.
- On the other hand, apparently not that many refs are needed to
make refs completion unacceptably slow on Windows,
- and this slowness bites each and every time the user attempts refs
completion, even when the repository doesn't contain any ambiguous
refs.
- Furthermore, circumventing the issue might not be possible or
might be considerably more difficult and requires various
trade-offs (e.g. working in a repository with only a few selected
important refs while keeping a separate repository with all refs
for reference).
Arguably, in this case the benefits of technical correctness are
rather minor compared to the price we pay for it, and we are better
off opting for performance over correctness.
Use the 'git for-each-ref' format 'refname:strip=2' to list short refs
to spare the substantial cost of disambiguating.
This speeds up refs completion considerably. Uniquely completing a
branch in a repository with 100k local branches, all packed, best of
five:
When the completion script has to list only tags or only branches, it
uses the 'git for-each-ref' format 'refname:short', which makes sure
that all listed tags and branches are unambiguous. However,
disambiguating tags and branches in these cases is wrong, because:
- __git_tags(), the helper function listing possible tagname
arguments for 'git tag', lists an ambiguous tag
'refs/tags/ambiguous' as 'tags/ambiguous'. Its only consumer,
'git tag' expects its tagname argument to be under 'refs/tags/',
thus it interprets that abgiguous tag as
'refs/tags/tags/ambiguous'. Clearly wrong.
- __git_heads() lists possible branchname arguments for 'git branch'
and possible 'branch.<branchname>' configuration subsections.
Both of these expect branchnames to be under 'refs/heads/' and
misinterpret a disambiguated branchname like 'heads/ambiguous'.
Furthermore, disambiguation involves several stat() syscalls for each
tag or branch, thus comes at a steep cost especially on Windows and/or
when there are a lot of tags or branches to be listed.
Use the 'git for-each-ref' format 'refname:strip=2' instead of
'refname:short' to avoid harmful disambiguation of tags and branches
in __git_tags() and __git_heads().

completion: support completing fully qualified non-fast-forward refspecs
After 'git fetch <remote> <TAB>' our completion script offers refspecs
that will fetch to a local branch with the same name as in the remote
repository, e.g. 'master:master'. This also completes
non-fast-forward refspecs, i.e. after a '+' prefix like
'+master:master', and fully qualified refspecs, e.g.
'refs/heads/master:refs/heads/master'. However, it does not complete
non-fast-forward fully qualified refspecs (or fully qualified refspecs
following any other prefix, e.g. '--option=', though currently no git
command supports such an option, but third party git commands might).
These refspecs are listed by the __git_refs2() function, which is just
a thin wrapper iterating over __git_refs()'s output, turning each
listed ref into a refspec. Now, it's certainly possible to modify
__git_refs2() and its callsite to pass an extra parameter containing
only the ref part of the current word to be completed (to follow suit
of the previous commit) to deal with prefixed fully qualified refspecs
as well. Unfortunately, keeping the current behavior unchanged in the
"no extra parameter" case brings in a bit of subtlety, which makes the
resulting code ugly and compelled me to write a 8-line long comment in
the proof of concept. Not good. However, since the callsite has to
be modified for proper functioning anyway, we might as well leave
__git_refs2() as is and introduce a new helper function without
backwards compatibility concerns.
Add the new function __git_complete_fetch_refspecs() that has all the
necessary parameters to do the right thing in all cases mentioned
above, including non-fast-forward fully qualified refspecs. This new
function can also easier benefit from optimizations coming later in
this patch series.

completion: support completing full refs after '--option=refs/<TAB>'
Completing full refs currently only works when the full ref stands on
in its own on the command line, but doesn't work when the current word
to be completed contains a prefix before the full ref, e.g.
'--option=refs/<TAB>' or 'master..refs/bis<TAB>'.
The reason is that __git_refs() looks at the current word to be
completed ($cur) as a whole to decide whether it has to list full (if
it starts with 'refs/') or short refs (otherwise). However, $cur also
holds said '--option=' or 'master..' prefixes, which of course throw
off this decision. Luckily, the default action is to list short refs,
that's why completing short refs happens to work even after a
'master..<TAB>' prefix and similar cases.
Pass only the ref part of the current word to be completed to
__git_refs() as a new positional parameter, so it can make the right
decision even if the whole current word contains some kind of a
prefix.
Make this new parameter the 4. positional parameter and leave the 3.
as an ignored placeholder for now (it will be used later in this patch
series).

completion: wrap __git_refs() for better option parsing
__git_refs() currently accepts two optional positional parameters: a
remote and a flag for 'git checkout's tracking DWIMery. To fix a
minor bug, and, more importantly, for faster refs completion, this
series will add three more parameters: a prefix, the current word to
be completed and a suffix, i.e. the options accepted by __gitcomp() &
friends, and will change __git_refs() to list only refs matching that
given current word and to add that given prefix and suffix to the
listed refs.
However, __git_refs() is the helper function that is most likely used
in users' custom completion scriptlets for their own git commands, and
we don't want to break those, so
- we can't change __git_refs()'s default output format, i.e. we
can't by default append a trailing space to every listed ref,
meaning that the suffix parameter containing the default trailing
space would have to be specified on every invocation, and
- we can't change the position of existing positional parameters
either, so there would have to be plenty of set-but-empty
placeholder positional parameters all over the completion script.
Furthermore, with five positional parameters it would be really hard
to remember which position means what.
To keep callsites simple, add the new wrapper function
__git_complete_refs() around __git_refs(), which:
- instead of positional parameters accepts real '--opt=val'-style
options and with minimalistic option parsing translates them to
__git_refs()'s and __gitcomp_nl()'s positional parameters, and
- includes the '__gitcomp_nl "$(__git_refs ...)" ...' command
substitution to make its behavior match its name and the behavior
of other __git_complete_* functions, and to limit future changes
in this series to __git_refs() and this new wrapper function.
Call this wrapper function instead of __git_refs() wherever possible
throughout the completion script, i.e. when __git_refs()'s output is
fed to __gitcomp_nl() right away without further processing, which
means all callsites except a single one in the __git_refs2() helper.
