t/helper/test-repository: celebrate independence from the_repository
dade47c06c (commit-graph: add repo arg to graph readers, 2018-07-11)
brought more independence from the_repository to the commit graph, however
it was not completely independent of the_repository, as the previous
patches show.
To ensure we're not accessing the_repository by accident, we'd ideally
assign NULL to the_repository to trigger a segfault on access.
We currently have a temporary hack in cache.h, which relies on
the_hash_algo (which is a short form of the_repository->hash_algo) to
be set, so we cannot do that. The next best thing is to set all fields of
the_repository to 0, so any accidental access is more likely to be found.

In push_submodule(), because we do not actually need access to objects
in the submodule, do not invoke add_submodule_odb().
(for_each_remote_ref_submodule() does not require access to those
objects, and the actual push is done by spawning another process,
which handles object access by itself.)
This code of push_submodule() is exercised in t5531 and continues
to work, showing that the submodule odbc is not needed.

In a partial clone that will lazily be hydrated from the
originating repository, we generally want to avoid "does this
object exist (locally)?" on objects that we deliberately omitted
when we created the clone. The cache-tree codepath (which is used
to write a tree object out of the index) however insisted that the
object exists, even for paths that are outside of the partial
checkout area. The code has been updated to avoid such a check.

When pushing into a repository that borrows its objects from an
alternate object store, "git receive-pack" that responds to the
push request on the other side lists the tips of refs in the
alternate to reduce the amount of objects transferred. This
sometimes is detrimental when the number of refs in the alternate
is absurdly large, in which case the bandwidth saved in potentially
fewer objects transferred is wasted in excessively large ref
advertisement. The alternate refs that are advertised are now
configurable with a pair of configuration variables.

transport.c: introduce core.alternateRefsPrefixes
transport.c: introduce core.alternateRefsCommand
transport.c: extract 'fill_alternate_refs_command'

name can be done without first seeing the ref advertisements. The

transport: list refs before fetch if necessary
transport: do not list refs if possible
transport: allow skipping of ref listing
A partial clone that is configured to lazily fetch missing objects
will on-demand issue a "git fetch" request to the originating
repository to fill not-yet-obtained objects. The request has been
optimized for requesting a tree object (and not the leaf blob
objects contained in it) by telling the originating repository that
no blobs are needed.

This patch helps address the CPU cost of loading the index by utilizing
the Index Entry Offset Table (IEOT) to divide loading and conversion of
the cache entries across multiple threads in parallel.
I used p0002-read-cache.sh to generate some performance data:
Test w/100,000 files reduced the time by 32.24%
Test w/1,000,000 files reduced the time by -4.77%
Note that on the 1,000,000 files case, multi-threading the cache entry parsing
does not yield a performance win. This is because the cost to parse the
index extensions in this repo, far outweigh the cost of loading the cache
entries.
The high cost of parsing the index extensions is driven by the cache tree
and the untracked cache extensions. As this is currently the longest pole,
any reduction in this time will reduce the overall index load times so is
worth further investigation in another patch series.

ieot: add Index Entry Offset Table (IEOT) extension
This patch enables addressing the CPU cost of loading the index by adding
additional data to the index that will allow us to efficiently multi-
thread the loading and conversion of cache entries.
It accomplishes this by adding an (optional) index extension that is a
table of offsets to blocks of cache entries in the index file. To make
this work for V4 indexes, when writing the cache entries, it periodically
"resets" the prefix-compression by encoding the current entry as if the
path name for the previous entry is completely different and saves the
offset of that entry in the IEOT. Basically, with V4 indexes, it
generates offsets into blocks of prefix-compressed entries.

read-cache: load cache extensions on a worker thread
This patch helps address the CPU cost of loading the index by loading
the cache extensions on a worker thread in parallel with loading the cache
entries.
In some cases, loading the extensions takes longer than loading the
cache entries so this patch utilizes the new EOIE to start the thread to
load the extensions before loading all the cache entries in parallel.
This is possible because the current extensions don't access the cache
entries in the index_state structure so are OK that they don't all exist
yet.
The CACHE_EXT_TREE, CACHE_EXT_RESOLVE_UNDO, and CACHE_EXT_UNTRACKED
extensions don't even get a pointer to the index so don't have access to the
cache entries.
CACHE_EXT_LINK only uses the index_state to initialize the split index.
CACHE_EXT_FSMONITOR only uses the index_state to save the fsmonitor last
update and dirty flags.
I used p0002-read-cache.sh to generate some performance data:
Test w/100,000 files reduced the time by 0.53%
Test w/1,000,000 files reduced the time by 27.78%

The End of Index Entry (EOIE) is used to locate the end of the variable
length index entries and the beginning of the extensions. Code can take
advantage of this to quickly locate the index extensions without having
to parse through all of the index entries.
The EOIE extension is always written out to the index file including to
the shared index when using the split index feature. Because it is always
written out, the SHA checksums in t/t1700-split-index.sh were updated
to reflect its inclusion.
It is written as an optional extension to ensure compatibility with other
git implementations that do not yet support it. It is always written out
to ensure it is available as often as possible to speed up index operations.
Because it must be able to be loaded before the variable length cache
entries and other index extensions, this extension must be written last.
The signature for this extension is { 'E', 'O', 'I', 'E' }.
The extension consists of:
- 32-bit offset to the end of the index entries
- 160-bit SHA-1 over the extension types and their sizes (but not
their contents). E.g. if we have "TREE" extension that is N-bytes
long, "REUC" extension that is M-bytes long, followed by "EOIE",
then the hash would be:
SHA-1("TREE" + <binary representation of N> +
"REUC" + <binary representation of M>)

cache-tree: skip some blob checks in partial clone
In a partial clone, whenever a sparse checkout occurs, the existence of
all blobs in the index is verified, whether they are included or
excluded by the .git/info/sparse-checkout specification. This
significantly degrades performance because a lazy fetch occurs whenever
the existence of a missing blob is checked.
This is because cache_tree_update() checks the existence of all objects
in the index, whether or not CE_SKIP_WORKTREE is set on them. Teach
cache_tree_update() to skip checking CE_SKIP_WORKTREE objects when the
repository is a partial clone. This improves performance for sparse
checkout and also other operations that use cache_tree_update().
Instead of completely removing the check, an argument could be made that
the check should instead be replaced by a check that the blob is
promised, but for performance reasons, I decided not to do this.
If the user needs to verify the repository, it can be done using fsck
(which will notify if a tree points to a missing and non-promised blob,
whether the blob is included or excluded by the sparse-checkout
specification).

The recently-introduced "core.alternateRefsCommand" allows callers to
specify with high flexibility the tips that they wish to advertise from
alternates. This flexibility comes at the cost of some inconvenience
when the caller only wishes to limit the advertisement to one or more
prefixes.
For example, to advertise only tags, a caller using
'core.alternateRefsCommand' would have to do:
Which will behave identically to the longer example using
"core.alternateRefsCommand".
Since the value of "core.alternateRefsPrefixes" is appended to 'git
for-each-ref' and then executed, include a "--" before taking the
configured value to avoid misinterpreting arguments as flags to 'git
for-each-ref'.
In the case that the caller wishes to specify multiple prefixes, they
may separate them by whitespace. If "core.alternateRefsCommand" is set,
it will take precedence over "core.alternateRefsPrefixes".

When in a repository containing one or more alternates, Git would
sometimes like to list references from those alternates. For example,
'git receive-pack' lists the "tips" pointed to by references in those
alternates as special ".have" references.
Listing ".have" references is designed to make pushing changes from
upstream to a fork a lightweight operation, by advertising to the pusher
that the fork already has the objects (via its alternate). Thus, the
client can avoid sending them.
However, when the alternate (upstream, in the previous example) has a
pathologically large number of references, the initial advertisement is
too expensive. In fact, it can dominate any such optimization where the
pusher avoids sending certain objects.
Introduce "core.alternateRefsCommand" in order to provide a facility to
limit or filter alternate references. This can be used, for example, to
filter out references the alternate does not wish to send (for space
concerns, or otherwise) during the initial advertisement.
Let the repository that has alternates configure this command to avoid
trusting the alternate to provide us a safe command to run in the shell.
To find the alternate, pass its absolute path as the first argument.

transport: drop refnames from for_each_alternate_ref
None of the current callers use the refname parameter we pass to their
callbacks. In theory somebody _could_ do so, but it's actually quite
weird if you think about it: it's a ref in somebody else's repository.
So the name has no meaning locally, and in fact there may be duplicates
if there are multiple alternates.
The users of this interface really only care about seeing some ref tips,
since that promises that the alternate has the full commit graph
reachable from there. So let's keep the information we pass back to the
bare minimum.

If only hash literals are given on a "git fetch" command-line, tag

The built-in bundle transport and the transport helper interface do not
work when transport_fetch_refs() is called immediately after transport
creation. This will be needed in a subsequent patch, so fix this.
Evidence: fetch_refs_from_bundle() relies on data->header being
initialized in get_refs_from_bundle(), and fetch() in transport-helper.c
relies on either data->fetch or data->import being set by get_helper(),
but neither transport_helper_init() nor fetch() calls get_helper().
Up until the introduction of the partial clone feature, this has not
been a problem, because transport_fetch_refs() is always called after
transport_get_remote_refs(). With the introduction of the partial clone
feature, which involves calling transport_fetch_refs() (to fetch objects
by their OIDs) without transport_get_remote_refs(), this is still not a
problem, but only coincidentally - we do not support partially cloning a
bundle, and as for cloning using a transport-helper-using protocol, it
so happens that before transport_fetch_refs() is called, fetch_refs() in
fetch-object.c calls transport_set_option(), which means that the
aforementioned get_helper() is invoked through set_helper_option() in
transport-helper.c.
This could be fixed by fixing the transports themselves, but it doesn't
seem like a good idea to me to open up previously untested code paths;
also, there may be transport helpers in the wild that assume that "list"
is always called before "fetch". Instead, fix this by having
transport_fetch_refs() call transport_get_remote_refs() to ensure that
the latter is always called at least once, unless the transport
explicitly states that it supports fetching without listing refs.

When all refs to be fetched are exact OIDs, it is possible to perform a

The get_refs_via_connect() function both performs the handshake
(including determining the protocol version) and obtaining the list of
remote refs. However, the fetch protocol v2 supports fetching objects
without the listing of refs, so make it possible for the user to skip
the listing by creating a new handshake() function. This will be used in
a subsequent commit.
It is a common mistake to put positional arguments before flags when
invoking git-rev-list. Order the positional arguments last.
This patch skips git-rev-list invocations which include the --not flag,
since the ordering of flags and positional arguments affects the
behavior. This patch also skips invocations of git-rev-list that occur
in command substitution in which the exit code is discarded, since
fixing those properly will require a more involved cleanup.
