completion: simplify prefix path component handling during path completion
Once upon a time 'git -C "" cmd' errored out with "Cannot change to
'': No such file or directory", therefore the completion script took
extra steps to run 'git -C "." cmd' instead; see fca416a41e
(completion: use "git -C $there" instead of (cd $there && git ...),
2014-10-09).
Those extra steps are not needed since 6a536e2076 (git: treat "git -C
'<path>'" as a no-op when <path> is empty, 2015-03-06), so remove
them.
While at it, also simplify how the trailing '/' is appended to the
variable holding the prefix path components.

t9902-completion: add tests demonstrating issues with quoted pathnames
Completion functions see all words on the command line verbatim,
including any backslash-escapes, single and double quotes that might
be there. Furthermore, git commands quote pathnames if they contain
certain special characters. All these create various issues when
doing git-aware path completion.
Add a couple of failing tests to demonstrate these issues.
Later patches in this series will discuss these issues in detail as
they fix them.

glossary: substitute "ancestor" for "direct ancestor" in 'push' description.
Even though "direct ancestor" is not defined in the glossary, the
common meaning of the term is simply "parent", parents being the only
direct ancestors, and the rest of ancestors being indirect ancestors.
As "parent" is obviously wrong in this place in the description, we
should simply say "ancestor", as everywhere else.

The git-blame.el mode has been superseded by Emacs's own
vc-annotate (invoked by C-x v g). Users of the git.el mode are now
much better off using either Magit or the Git backend for Emacs's own
VC mode.
These modes were added over 10 years ago when Emacs's own Git support
was much less mature, and there weren't other mature modes in the wild
or shipped with Emacs itself.
These days these modes have few if any users, and users of git aren't
well served by us shipping these (some OS's install them alongside git
by default, which is confusing and leads users astray).
So let's remove these per Alexandre Julliard's message to the
ML[1]. If someone still wants these for some reason they're better
served by hosting these elsewhere (e.g. on ELPA), instead of us
distributing them with git.
However, since downstream packagers such as Debian are packaging this
as git-el it's less disruptive to still carry these files as Elisp
code that'll error out with a message suggesting alternatives, rather
than drop the files entirely[2].
Then rather than receive a cryptic load error when they upgrade
existing users will get an error directing them to the README file, or
to just stop requiring these modes. I think it makes sense to link to
GitHub's hosting of contrib/emacs/README (which'll be updated by the
time users see this) so they don't have to hunt down the packaged
README on their local system.
Our parser finds the _first_ line that appears to start a
PGP signature block, meaning we may be confused by a
signature (or a signature-like line) in the actual body.
Let's keep parsing and always find the final block, which
should be the detached signature over all of the preceding
content.

The config handler for user.signingkey does not check for a

helper is used by other code outside of gpg-interface.c, so
we must keep it (and we may as well use it, because unlike
git_config_string() it does not leak when we overwrite an
old value).
Ironically, the handler for gpg.program just below _could_
use git_config_string() but doesn't. But since we're going

Change DEVOPTS to understand a "extra-all" option. When the DEVELOPER
flag is enabled we turn on -Wextra, but manually switch some of the
warnings it turns on off.
This is because we have many existing occurrences of them in the code
base. This mode will stop the suppression, let the developer see and
decide whether to fix them.
This change is a slight alteration of Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy
EAGER_DEVELOPER mode patch[1]
Makefile: add a DEVOPTS to suppress -Werror under DEVELOPER
Add a DEVOPTS variable that'll be used to tweak the behavior of
DEVELOPER.
I've long wanted to use DEVELOPER=1 in my production builds, but on
some old systems I still get warnings, and thus the build would
fail. However if the build/tests fail for some other reason, it would
still be useful to scroll up and see what the relevant code is warning
about.
This change allows for that. Now setting DEVELOPER will set -Werror as
before, but if DEVOPTS=no-error is provided is set you'll get the same
warnings, but without -Werror.

pack-objects: show some progress when counting kept objects
We only show progress when there are new objects to be packed. But
when --keep-pack is specified on the base pack, we will exclude most
of objects. This makes 'pack-objects' stay silent for a long time
while the counting phase is going.
Let's show some progress whenever we visit an object instead. The old
"Counting objects" is renamed to "Enumerating objects" and a new
progress "Counting objects" line is added.
This new "Counting objects" line should progress pretty quick when the
system is beefy. But when the system is under pressure, the reading
object header done in this phase could be slow and showing progress is
an improvement over staying silent in the current code.

gc --auto: exclude base pack if not enough mem to "repack -ad"
pack-objects could be a big memory hog especially on large repos,
everybody knows that. The suggestion to stick a .keep file on the
giant base pack to avoid this problem is also known for a long time.
Recent patches add an option to do just this, but it has to be either
configured or activated manually. This patch lets `git gc --auto`
activate this mode automatically when it thinks `repack -ad` will use
a lot of memory and start affecting the system due to swapping or
flushing OS cache.
gc --auto decides to do this based on an estimation of pack-objects
memory usage, which is quite accurate at least for the heap part, and
whether that fits in half of system memory (the assumption here is for
desktop environment where there are many other applications running).
This mechanism only kicks in if gc.bigBasePackThreshold is not configured.
If it is, it is assumed that the user already knows what they want.

This config allows us to keep <N> packs back if their size is larger
than a limit. But if this N >= gc.autoPackLimit, we may have a
problem. We are supposed to reduce the number of packs after a
threshold because it affects performance.
We could tell the user that they have incompatible gc.bigPackThreshold
and gc.autoPackLimit, but it's kinda hard when 'git gc --auto' runs in
background. Instead let's fall back to the next best stategy: try to
reduce the number of packs anyway, but keep the base pack out. This
reduces the number of packs to two and hopefully won't take up too
much resources to repack (the assumption still is the base pack takes
most resources to handle).

The --keep-largest-pack option is not very convenient to use because
you need to tell gc to do this explicitly (and probably on just a few
large repos).
Add a config key that enables this mode when packs larger than a limit
are found. Note that there's a slight behavior difference compared to
--keep-largest-pack: all packs larger than the threshold are kept, not
just the largest one.

This adds a new repack mode that combines everything into a secondary
pack, leaving the largest pack alone.
This could help reduce memory pressure. On linux-2.6.git, valgrind
massif reports 1.6GB heap in "pack all" case, and 535MB in "pack
all except the base pack" case. We save roughly 1GB memory by
excluding the base pack.
This should also lower I/O because we don't have to rewrite a giant
pack every time (e.g. for linux-2.6.git that's a 1.4GB pack file)..
PS. The use of string_list here seems overkill, but we'll need it in
the next patch...

We allow to keep existing packs by having companion .keep files. This
is helpful when a pack is permanently kept. In the next patch, git-gc
just wants to keep a pack temporarily, for one pack-objects
run. git-gc can use --keep-pack for this use case.
A note about why the pack_keep field cannot be reused and
pack_keep_in_core has to be added. This is about the case when
--keep-pack is specified together with either --keep-unreachable or
--unpack-unreachable, but --honor-pack-keep is NOT specified.
In this case, we want to exclude objects from the packs specified on
command line, not from ones with .keep files. If only one bit flag is
used, we have to clear pack_keep on pack files with the .keep file.
But we can't make any assumption about unreachable objects in .keep
packs. If "pack_keep" field is false for .keep packs, we could
potentially pull lots of unreachable objects into the new pack, or
unpack them loose. The safer approach is ignore all packs with either
.keep file or --keep-pack.

pack-objects: reorder members to shrink struct object_entry
Previous patches leave lots of holes and padding in this struct. This
patch reorders the members and shrinks the struct down to 80 bytes
(from 136 bytes on 64-bit systems, before any field shrinking is done)
with 16 bits to spare (and a couple more in in_pack_header_size when
we really run out of bits).
This is the last in a series of memory reduction patches (see
"pack-objects: a bit of document about struct object_entry" for the
first one).
Overall they've reduced repack memory size on linux-2.6.git from
3.747G to 3.424G, or by around 320M, a decrease of 8.5%. The runtime
of repack has stayed the same throughout this series. Ævar's testing
on a big monorepo he has access to (bigger than linux-2.6.git) has
shown a 7.9% reduction, so the overall expected improvement should be
somewhere around 8%.

If we find an existing delta larger than 1MB, we do not cache
delta_size at all and will get the value from oe_size(), potentially
from disk if it's larger than 4GB.

pack-objects: shrink size field in struct object_entry
It's very very rare that an uncompressed object is larger than 4GB
(partly because Git does not handle those large files very well to
begin with). Let's optimize it for the common case where object size
is smaller than this limit.
Shrink size field down to 31 bits and one overflow bit. If the size is
too large, we read it back from disk. As noted in the previous patch,
we need to return the delta size instead of canonical size when the
to-be-reused object entry type is a delta instead of a canonical one.
Add two compare helpers that can take advantage of the overflow
bit (e.g. if the file is 4GB+, chances are it's already larger than
core.bigFileThreshold and there's no point in comparing the actual
value).
Another note about oe_get_size_slow(). This function MUST be thread
safe because SIZE() macro is used inside try_delta() which may run in
parallel. Outside parallel code, no-contention locking should be dirt
cheap (or insignificant compared to i/o access anyway). To exercise
this code, it's best to run the test suite with something like
make test GIT_TEST_OE_SIZE=4
which forces this code on all objects larger than 3 bytes.

pack-objects: clarify the use of object_entry::size
While this field most of the time contains the canonical object size,
there is one case it does not: when we have found that the base object
of the delta in question is also to be packed, we will very happily
reuse the delta by copying it over instead of regenerating the new
delta.
"size" in this case will record the delta size, not canonical object
size. Later on in write_reuse_object(), we reconstruct the delta
header and "size" is used for this purpose. When this happens, the
"type" field contains a delta type instead of a canonical type.

prepare_pack() though. Until then, do not touch "size" field.
This field should contain the default value zero, but we can't say
sha1_object_info() cannot damage it. This becomes more important later
when the object size may have to be retrieved back from the
(non-existing) pack.

pack-objects: refer to delta objects by index instead of pointer
These delta pointers always point to elements in the objects[] array
in packing_data struct. We can only hold maximum 4G of those objects
because the array size in nr_objects is uint32_t. We could use
uint32_t indexes to address these elements instead of pointers. On
64-bit architecture (8 bytes per pointer) this would save 4 bytes per
pointer.
Convert these delta pointers to indexes. Since we need to handle NULL
pointers as well, the index is shifted by one [1].
[1] This means we can only index 2^32-2 objects even though nr_objects
could contain 2^32-1 objects. It should not be a problem in
practice because when we grow objects[], nr_alloc would probably
blow up long before nr_objects hits the wall.

pack-objects: move in_pack out of struct object_entry
Instead of using 8 bytes (on 64 bit arch) to store a pointer to a
pack. Use an index instead since the number of packs should be
relatively small.
This limits the number of packs we can handle to 1k. Since we can't be
sure people can never run into the situation where they have more than
1k pack files. Provide a fall back route for it.
If we find out they have too many packs, the new in_pack_by_idx[]
array (which has at most 1k elements) will not be used. Instead we
allocate in_pack[] array that holds nr_objects elements. This is
similar to how the optional in_pack_pos field is handled.
The new simple test is just to make sure the too-many-packs code path
is at least executed. The true test is running
make test GIT_TEST_FULL_IN_PACK_ARRAY=1

An extra field type_valid is added to carry the equivalent of OBJ_BAD

A note about accepting OBJ_NONE as "valid" type. The function
read_object_list_from_stdin() can pass this value [1] and it
eventually calls create_object_entry() where current code skip setting
"type" field if the incoming type is zero. This does not have any bad
side effects because "type" field should be memset()'d anyway.
But since we also need to set type_valid now, skipping oe_set_type()
leaves type_valid zero/false, which will make oe_type() return
OBJ_BAD, not OBJ_NONE anymore. Apparently we do care about OBJ_NONE in
prepare_pack(). This switch from OBJ_NONE to OBJ_BAD may trigger
fatal: unable to get type of object ...
Accepting OBJ_NONE [2] does sound wrong, but this is how it is has
been for a very long time and I haven't time to dig in further.

replace-object: check_replace_refs is safe in multi repo environment
In e1111cef23 (inline lookup_replace_object() calls, 2011-05-15) a shortcut
for checking the object replacement was added by setting check_replace_refs
to 0 once the replacements were evaluated to not exist. This works fine in
with the assumption of only one repository in existence.
The assumption won't hold true any more when we work on multiple instances
of a repository structs (e.g. one struct per submodule), as the first
repository to be inspected may have no replacements and would set the
global variable. Other repositories would then completely omit their
evaluation of replacements.
This reverts back the meaning of the flag `check_replace_refs` of
"Do we need to check with the lookup table?" to "Do we need to read
the replacement definition?", adding the bypassing logic to
lookup_replace_object after the replacement definition was read.
As with the original patch, delay the renaming of the global variable

replace-object: eliminate replace objects prepared flag
Make the oidmap a pointer.
That way we eliminate the need for the global boolean
variable 'replace_object_prepared' as we can put this information
into the pointer being NULL or not.
Another advantage of this is that we would more quickly catch
code that tries to access replace-map without initializing it.
This also allows the '#include "oidmap.h"' introduced in a previous
patch to be replaced by the forward declaration of 'struct oidmap;'.
Keeping the type opaque discourages circumventing accessor functions;
not dragging in other headers avoids some compile time overhead.
One disadvantage of this is change is performance as we need to
pay the overhead for a malloc. The alternative of moving the
global variable into the object store is less modular code.

object-store: move lookup_replace_object to replace-object.h
lookup_replace_object is a low-level function that most users of the

The relationship between an object X and another object Y that
replaces the object X is defined only within the scope of a
single repository.
The exception in reachability rule around these replacement objects
is also local to a repository (i.e. if traversal from refs reaches
X, then both X and Y are reachable and need to be kept from gc).

Instead of just mentioning 'git blame' and 'git shortlog', which make it
quite hard for new contributors to pick out the appropriate list of
people to cc on their patch series, mention the 'git contacts' utility,

Introduce the mem_pool type which encapsulates all the information necessary to
manage a pool of memory. This change moves the existing variables in
fast-import used to support the global memory pool to use this structure. It
also renames variables that are no longer used by memory pools to reflect their
more scoped usage.
These changes allow for the multiple instances of a memory pool to
exist and be reused outside of fast-import. In a future commit the
mem_pool type will be moved to its own file.

This is part of a patch series to extract the memory pool logic in

reduce churn in future patches.

exec_cmd: provide a new-style RUNTIME_PREFIX helper for Windows
The RUNTIME_PREFIX feature comes from Git for Windows, but it was
enhanced to allow support for other platforms. While changing the
original idea, the concept was also improved by not forcing argv[0] to
be adjusted.
Let's allow the same for Windows by implementing a helper just as for
the other platforms.

Enable Git to resolve its own binary location using a variety of
OS-specific and generic methods, including:
- procfs via "/proc/self/exe" (Linux)
- _NSGetExecutablePath (Darwin)
- KERN_PROC_PATHNAME sysctl on BSDs.
- argv0, if absolute (all, including Windows).
This is used to enable RUNTIME_PREFIX support for non-Windows systems,
notably Linux and Darwin. When configured with RUNTIME_PREFIX, Git will
do a best-effort resolution of its executable path and automatically use
this as its "exec_path" for relative helper and data lookups, unless
explicitly overridden.
Small incidental formatting cleanup of "exec_cmd.c".

Broaden the RUNTIME_PREFIX flag to configure Git's Perl scripts to
locate the Git installation's Perl support libraries by resolving
against the script's path, rather than hard-coding that path at
build-time. Hard-coding at build time worked on previous
RUNTIME_PREFIX configurations (i.e., Windows) because the Perl
scripts were run within a virtual filesystem whose paths were
consistent regardless of the location of the actual installation.
This will no longer be the case for non-Windows RUNTIME_PREFIX users.
When enabled, RUNTIME_PREFIX now requires Perl's system paths to be
expressed relative to a common installation directory in the Makefile,
and uses that relationship to locate support files based on the known
starting point of the script being executed, much like RUNTIME_PREFIX
does for the Git binary.
This change enables Git's Perl scripts to work when their Git installation
is relocated or moved to another system, even when they are not in a
virtual filesystem environment.

Currently, the generated Perl script headers are emitted by commands in
the Makefile. This mechanism restricts options to introduce alternative
header content, needed by Perl runtime prefix support, and obscures the
origin of the Perl script header.
Change the Makefile to generate a header by processing a template file and
move the header content into the "perl/" subdirectory. The generated
header content will now be stored in the "GIT-PERL-HEADER" file. This
allows the content of the Perl header to be controlled by changing the path
of the template in the Makefile.

fsmonitor currently only flags the index as dirty if the extension is being
added or removed. This is a performance optimization that recognizes you can
stat() a lot of files in less time than it takes to write out an updated index.
This patch makes a small enhancement and flags the index dirty if we end up
having to stat() all files and scan the entire working directory. The assumption
being that must be expensive or you would not have turned on the feature.

The topic appears to inflict severe regression in renaming merges,
even though the promise of it was that it would improve them.
We do not yet know which exact change in the topic was wrong, but in
the meantime, let's play it safe and revert it out of 'master'
before real Git-using projects are harmed.
fsmonitor: fix incorrect buffer size when printing version number

The commit-graph file provides quick access to commit data, including
the OID of the root tree for each commit in the graph. When performing
a deep commit-graph walk, we may not need to load most of the trees
for these commits.
Delay loading the tree object for a commit loaded from the graph
until requested via get_commit_tree(). Do not lazy-load trees for
commits not in the graph, since that requires duplicate parsing
and the relative peformance improvement when trees are not needed
is small.
On the Linux repository, performance tests were run for the following
command:
git log --graph --oneline -1000
Before: 0.92s
After: 0.66s
Rel %: -28.3%
Adding '-- kernel/' to the command requires loading the root tree
for every commit that is walked. There was no measureable performance
change as a result of this patch.
