cat-file: add --batch-command mode
Add a new flag --batch-command that accepts commands and arguments
from stdin, similar to git-update-ref --stdin.
At GitLab, we use a pair of long running cat-file processes when
accessing object content. One for iterating over object metadata with
--batch-check, and the other to grab object contents with --batch.
However, if we had --batch-command, we wouldn't need to keep both
processes around, and instead just have one --batch-command process
where we can flip between getting object info, and getting object
contents. Since we have a pair of cat-file processes per repository,
this means we can get rid of roughly half of long lived git cat-file
processes. Given there are many repositories being accessed at any given
time, this can lead to huge savings.
git cat-file --batch-command
will enter an interactive command mode whereby the user can enter in
commands and their arguments that get queued in memory:
<command1> [arg1] [arg2] LF
<command2> [arg1] [arg2] LF
When --buffer mode is used, commands will be queued in memory until a
flush command is issued that execute them:
flush LF
The reason for a flush command is that when a consumer process (A)
talks to a git cat-file process (B) and interactively writes to and
reads from it in --buffer mode, (A) needs to be able to control when
the buffer is flushed to stdout.
Currently, from (A)'s perspective, the only way is to either
1. kill (B)'s process
2. send an invalid object to stdin.
1. is not ideal from a performance perspective as it will require
spawning a new cat-file process each time, and 2. is hacky and not a
good long term solution.
With this mechanism of queueing up commands and letting (A) issue a
flush command, process (A) can control when the buffer is flushed and
can guarantee it will receive all of the output when in --buffer mode.
--batch-command also will not allow (B) to flush to stdout until a flush
is received.
This patch adds the basic structure for adding command which can be
extended in the future to add more commands. It also adds the following
two commands (on top of the flush command):
contents <object> LF
info <object> LF
The contents command takes an <object> argument and prints out the object
contents.
The info command takes an <object> argument and prints out the object
metadata.
These can be used in the following way with --buffer:
info <object> LF
contents <object> LF
contents <object> LF
info <object> LF
flush LF
info <object> LF
flush LF
When used without --buffer:
info <object> LF
contents <object> LF
contents <object> LF
info <object> LF
info <object> LF

cat-file: support "unordered" output for --batch-all-objects
If you're going to access the contents of every object in a
packfile, it's generally much more efficient to do so in
pack order, rather than in hash order. That increases the
locality of access within the packfile, which in turn is
friendlier to the delta base cache, since the packfile puts
related deltas next to each other. By contrast, hash order
is effectively random, since the sha1 has no discernible
relationship to the content.
This patch introduces an "--unordered" option to cat-file
which iterates over packs in pack-order under the hood. You
can see the results when dumping all of the file content:
$ time ./git cat-file --batch-all-objects --buffer --batch | wc -c
6883195596
real 0m44.491s
user 0m42.902s
sys 0m5.230s
$ time ./git cat-file --unordered \
--batch-all-objects --buffer --batch | wc -c
6883195596
real 0m6.075s
user 0m4.774s
sys 0m3.548s
Same output, different order, way faster. The same speed-up
applies even if you end up accessing the object content in a
different process, like:
git cat-file --batch-all-objects --buffer --batch-check |
grep blob |
git cat-file --batch='%(objectname) %(rest)' |
wc -c
Adding "--unordered" to the first command drops the runtime
in git.git from 24s to 3.5s.
Side note: there are actually further speedups available
for doing it all in-process now. Since we are outputting
the object content during the actual pack iteration, we
know where to find the object and could skip the extra
lookup done by oid_object_info(). This patch stops short
of that optimization since the underlying API isn't ready
for us to make those sorts of direct requests.
So if --unordered is so much better, why not make it the
default? Two reasons:
1. We've promised in the documentation that --batch-all-objects
outputs in hash order. Since cat-file is plumbing,
people may be relying on that default, and we can't
change it.
2. It's actually _slower_ for some cases. We have to
compute the pack revindex to walk in pack order. And
our de-duplication step uses an oidset, rather than a
sort-and-dedup, which can end up being more expensive.
If we're just accessing the type and size of each
object, for example, like:
git cat-file --batch-all-objects --buffer --batch-check
my best-of-five warm cache timings go from 900ms to
1100ms using --unordered. Though it's possible in a
cold-cache or under memory pressure that we could do
better, since we'd have better locality within the
packfile.
And one final question: why is it "--unordered" and not
"--pack-order"? The answer is again two-fold:
1. "pack order" isn't a well-defined thing across the
whole set of objects. We're hitting loose objects, as
well as objects in multiple packs, and the only
ordering we're promising is _within_ a single pack. The
rest is apparently random.
2. The point here is optimization. So we don't want to
promise any particular ordering, but only to say that
we will choose an ordering which is likely to be
efficient for accessing the object content. That leaves
the door open for further changes in the future without
having to add another compatibility option.

cat-file: add option '-Z' that delimits input and output with NUL
In db9d67f2e9 (builtin/cat-file.c: support NUL-delimited input with
`-z`, 2022-07-22), we have introduced a new mode to read the input via
NUL-delimited records instead of newline-delimited records. This allows
the user to query for revisions that have newlines in their path
component. While unusual, such queries are perfectly valid and thus it
is clear that we should be able to support them properly.
Unfortunately, the commit only changed the input to be NUL-delimited,
but didn't change the output at the same time. While this is fine for
queries that are processed successfully, it is less so for queries that
aren't. In the case of missing commits for example the result can become
entirely unparsable:
```
$ printf "7ce4f05bae8120d9fa258e854a8669f6ea9cb7b1 blob 10\n1234567890\n\n\commit000" |
git cat-file --batch -z
7ce4f05bae8120d9fa258e854a8669f6ea9cb7b1 blob 10
1234567890
commit missing
```
This is of course a crafted query that is intentionally gaming the
deficiency, but more benign queries that contain newlines would have
similar problems.
Ideally, we should have also changed the output to be NUL-delimited when
`-z` is specified to avoid this problem. As the input is NUL-delimited,
it is clear that the output in this case cannot ever contain NUL
characters by itself. Furthermore, Git does not allow NUL characters in
revisions anyway, further stressing the point that using NUL-delimited
output is safe. The only exception is of course the object data itself,
but as git-cat-file(1) prints the size of the object data clients should
read until that specified size has been consumed.
But even though `-z` has only been introduced a few releases ago in Git
v2.38.0, changing the output format retroactively to also NUL-delimit
output would be a backwards incompatible change. And while one could
make the argument that the output is inherently broken already, we need
to assume that there are existing users out there that use it just fine
given that revisions containing newlines are quite exotic.
Instead, introduce a new option `-Z` that switches to NUL-delimited
input and output. While this new option could arguably only switch the
output format to be NUL-delimited, the consequence would be that users
have to always specify both `-z` and `-Z` when the input may contain
newlines. On the other hand, if the user knows that there never will be
newlines in the input, they don't have to use either of those options.
There is thus no usecase that would warrant treating input and output
format separately, which is why we instead opt to "do the right thing"
and have `-Z` mean to NUL-terminate both formats.
The old `-z` option is marked as deprecated with a hint that its output
may become unparsable. It is thus hidden both from the synopsis as well
as the command's help output.

provide an initializer for "struct object_info"
An all-zero initializer is fine for this struct, but because
the first element is a pointer, call sites need to know to
use "NULL" instead of "0". Otherwise some static checkers
like "sparse" will complain; see d099b71 (Fix some sparse
warnings, 2013-07-18) for example. So let's provide an
initializer to make this easier to get right.
But let's also comment that memset() to zero is explicitly
OK[1]. One of the callers embeds object_info in another
struct which is initialized via memset (expand_data in
builtin/cat-file.c). Since our subset of C doesn't allow
assignment from a compound literal, handling this in any
other way is awkward, so we'd like to keep the ability to
initialize by memset(). By documenting this property, it
should make anybody who wants to change the initializer
think twice before doing so.
There's one other caller of interest. In parse_sha1_header(),
we did not initialize the struct fully in the first place.
This turned out not to be a bug because the sub-function it
calls does not look at any other fields except the ones we
did initialize. But that assumption might not hold in the
future, so it's a dangerous construct. This patch switches
it to initializing the whole struct, which protects us
against unexpected reads of the other fields.
[1] Obviously using memset() to initialize a pointer
violates the C standard, but we long ago decided that it
was an acceptable tradeoff in the real world.

consistently use "fallthrough" comments in switches
Gcc 7 adds -Wimplicit-fallthrough, which can warn when a
switch case falls through to the next case. The general idea
is that the compiler can't tell if this was intentional or
not, so you should annotate any intentional fall-throughs as
such, leaving it to complain about any unannotated ones.
There's a GNU __attribute__ which can be used for
annotation, but of course we'd have to #ifdef it away on
non-gcc compilers. Gcc will also recognize
specially-formatted comments, which matches our current
practice. Let's extend that practice to all of the
unannotated sites (which I did look over and verify that
they were behaving as intended).
Ideally in each case we'd actually give some reasons in the
comment about why we're falling through, or what we're
falling through to. And gcc does support that with
-Wimplicit-fallthrough=2, which relaxes the comment pattern
matching to anything that contains "fallthrough" (or a
variety of spelling variants). However, this isn't the
default for -Wimplicit-fallthrough, nor for -Wextra. In the
name of simplicity, it's probably better for us to support
the default level, which requires "fallthrough" to be the
only thing in the comment (modulo some window dressing like
"else" and some punctuation; see the gcc manual for the
complete set of patterns).
This patch suppresses all warnings due to
-Wimplicit-fallthrough. We might eventually want to add that
to the DEVELOPER Makefile knob, but we should probably wait
until gcc 7 is more widely adopted (since earlier versions
will complain about the unknown warning type).

cat-file: only split on whitespace when %(rest) is used
Commit c334b87b (cat-file: split --batch input lines on whitespace,
2013-07-11) taught `cat-file --batch-check` to split input lines on
the first whitespace, and stash everything after the first token
into the %(rest) output format element. It claimed:
Object names cannot contain spaces, so any input with
spaces would have resulted in a "missing" line.
But that is not correct. Refs, object sha1s, and various peeling
suffixes cannot contain spaces, but some object names can. In
particular:
1. Tree paths like "[<tree>]:path with whitespace"
2. Reflog specifications like "@{2 days ago}"
3. Commit searches like "rev^{/grep me}" or ":/grep me"
To remain backwards compatible, we cannot split on whitespace by
default, hence we will ship 1.8.4 with the commit reverted.
Resurrect its attempt but in a weaker form; only do the splitting
when "%(rest)" is used in the output format. Since that element did
not exist at all before c334b87, old scripts cannot be affected.
The existence of object names with spaces does mean that you
cannot reliably do:
echo ":path with space and other data" |
git cat-file --batch-check="%(objectname) %(rest)"
as it would split the path and feed only ":path" to get_sha1. But
that command is nonsensical. If you wanted to see "and other data"
in "%(rest)", git cannot possibly know where the filename ends and
the "rest" begins.
It might be more robust to have something like "-z" to separate the
input elements. But this patch is still a reasonable step before
having that. It makes the easy cases easy; people who do not care
about %(rest) do not have to consider it, and the %(rest) code
handles the spaces and newlines of "rev-list --objects" correctly.
Hard cases remain hard but possible (if you might get whitespace in
your input, you do not get to use %(rest) and must split and join
the output yourself using more flexible tools). And most
importantly, it does not preclude us from having different splitting
rules later if a "-z" (or similar) option is added. So we can make
the hard cases easier later, if we choose to.

cat-file: avoid noop calls to sha1_object_info_extended
It is not unreasonable to ask cat-file for a batch-check
format of simply "%(objectname)". At first glance this seems
like a noop (you are generally already feeding the object
names on stdin!), but it has a few uses:
1. With --batch-all-objects, you can generate a listing of
the sha1s present in the repository, without any input.
2. You do not have to feed sha1s; you can feed arbitrary
sha1 expressions and have git resolve them en masse.
3. You can even feed a raw sha1, with the result that git
will tell you whether we actually have the object or
not.
In case 3, the call to sha1_object_info is useful; it tells
us whether the object exists or not (technically we could
swap this out for has_sha1_file, but the cost is roughly the
same).
In case 2, the existence check is of debatable value. A
mass-resolution might prefer performance to safety (against
outputting a value for a corrupted ref, for example).
However, the object lookup cost is likely not as noticeable
compared to the resolution cost. And since we have provided
that safety in the past, the conservative choice is to keep
it.
In case 1, though, the object lookup is a definite noop; we
know about the object because we found it in the object
database. There is no new information gained by making the
call.
This patch detects that case and optimizes out the call.

There are two implementation details to note here.
One is that we detect the noop case by seeing that "struct
object_info" does not request any information. But besides
object existence, there is one other piece of information
which sha1_object_info may fill in: whether the object is
cached, loose, or packed. We don't currently provide that
information in the output, but if we were to do so later,
we'd need to take note and disable the optimization in that
case.
And that leads to the second note. If we were to output
that information, a better implementation would be to
remember where we saw the object in --batch-all-objects in
the first place, and avoid looking it up again by sha1.
In fact, we could probably squeeze out some extra
performance for less-trivial cases, too, by remembering the
pack location where we saw the object, and going directly
there to find its information (like type, size, etc). That
would in theory make this optimization unnecessary.
I didn't pursue that path here for two reasons:
1. It's non-trivial to implement, and has memory
implications. Because we sort and de-dup the list of
output sha1s, we'd have to record the pack information
for each object, too.
2. It doesn't save as much as you might hope. It saves the
find_pack_entry() call, but getting the size and type
for deltified objects requires walking down the delta
chain (for the real type) or reading the delta data
header (for the size). These costs tend to dominate the
non-trivial cases.
By contrast, this optimization is easy and self-contained,
and speeds up a real-world case I've used.

cat-file: avoid noop calls to sha1_object_info_extended
It is not unreasonable to ask cat-file for a batch-check
format of simply "%(objectname)". At first glance this seems
like a noop (you are generally already feeding the object
names on stdin!), but it has a few uses:
1. With --batch-all-objects, you can generate a listing of
the sha1s present in the repository, without any input.
2. You do not have to feed sha1s; you can feed arbitrary
sha1 expressions and have git resolve them en masse.
3. You can even feed a raw sha1, with the result that git
will tell you whether we actually have the object or
not.
In case 3, the call to sha1_object_info is useful; it tells
us whether the object exists or not (technically we could
swap this out for has_sha1_file, but the cost is roughly the
same).
In case 2, the existence check is of debatable value. A
mass-resolution might prefer performance to safety (against
outputting a value for a corrupted ref, for example).
However, the object lookup cost is likely not as noticeable
compared to the resolution cost. And since we have provided
that safety in the past, the conservative choice is to keep
it.
In case 1, though, the object lookup is a definite noop; we
know about the object because we found it in the object
database. There is no new information gained by making the
call.
This patch detects that case and optimizes out the call.
Here are best-of-five timings for linux.git:
[before]
$ time git cat-file --buffer \
--batch-all-objects \
--batch-check='%(objectname)'
real 0m2.117s
user 0m2.044s
sys 0m0.072s
[after]
$ time git cat-file --buffer \
--batch-all-objects \
--batch-check='%(objectname)'

user 0m1.176s
sys 0m0.052s

cat-file: only split on whitespace when %(rest) is used
Commit c334b87b (cat-file: split --batch input lines on whitespace,
2013-07-11) taught `cat-file --batch-check` to split input lines on
the first whitespace, and stash everything after the first token
into the %(rest) output format element. It claimed:
Object names cannot contain spaces, so any input with
spaces would have resulted in a "missing" line.
But that is not correct. Refs, object sha1s, and various peeling
suffixes cannot contain spaces, but some object names can. In
particular:
1. Tree paths like "[<tree>]:path with whitespace"
2. Reflog specifications like "@{2 days ago}"
3. Commit searches like "rev^{/grep me}" or ":/grep me"
To remain backwards compatible, we cannot split on whitespace by
default, hence we will ship 1.8.4 with the commit reverted.
Resurrect its attempt but in a weaker form; only do the splitting
when "%(rest)" is used in the output format. Since that element did
not exist at all before c334b87, old scripts cannot be affected.
The existence of object names with spaces does mean that you
cannot reliably do:
echo ":path with space and other data" |
git cat-file --batch-check="%(objectname) %(rest)"
as it would split the path and feed only ":path" to get_sha1. But
that command is nonsensical. If you wanted to see "and other data"
in "%(rest)", git cannot possibly know where the filename ends and
the "rest" begins.
It might be more robust to have something like "-z" to separate the
input elements. But this patch is still a reasonable step before
having that. It makes the easy cases easy; people who do not care
about %(rest) do not have to consider it, and the %(rest) code
handles the spaces and newlines of "rev-list --objects" correctly.
Hard cases remain hard but possible (if you might get whitespace in
your input, you do not get to use %(rest) and must split and join
the output yourself using more flexible tools). And most
importantly, it does not preclude us from having different splitting
rules later if a "-z" (or similar) option is added. So we can make
the hard cases easier later, if we choose to.

cat-file: handle --batch format with missing type/size
Commit 98e2092 taught cat-file to stream blobs with --batch,
which requires that we look up the object type before
loading it into memory. As a result, we now print the
object header from information in sha1_object_info, and the
actual contents from the read_sha1_file. We double-check
that the information we printed in the header matches the
content we are about to show.
Later, commit 93d2a60 allowed custom header lines for
--batch, and commit 5b08640 made type lookups optional. As a
result, specifying a header line without the type or size
means that we will not look up those items at all.
This causes our double-checking to erroneously die with an
error; we think the type or size has changed, when in fact
it was simply left at "0".
For the size, we can fix this by only doing the consistency
double-check when we have retrieved the size via
sha1_object_info. In the case that we have not retrieved the
value, that means we also did not print it, so there is
nothing for us to check that we are consistent with.
We could do the same for the type. However, besides our
consistency check, we also care about the type in deciding
whether to stream or not. So instead of handling the case
where we do not know the type, this patch instead makes sure
that we always trigger a type lookup when we are printing,
so that even a format without the type will stream as we
would in the normal case.

cat-file: add option '-Z' that delimits input and output with NUL
In db9d67f2e9 (builtin/cat-file.c: support NUL-delimited input with
`-z`, 2022-07-22), we have introduced a new mode to read the input via
NUL-delimited records instead of newline-delimited records. This allows
the user to query for revisions that have newlines in their path
component. While unusual, such queries are perfectly valid and thus it
is clear that we should be able to support them properly.
Unfortunately, the commit only changed the input to be NUL-delimited,
but didn't change the output at the same time. While this is fine for
queries that are processed successfully, it is less so for queries that
aren't. In the case of missing commits for example the result can become
entirely unparsable:
```
$ printf "7ce4f05bae8120d9fa258e854a8669f6ea9cb7b1 blob 10\n1234567890\n\n\commit000" |
git cat-file --batch -z
7ce4f05bae8120d9fa258e854a8669f6ea9cb7b1 blob 10
1234567890
commit missing
```
This is of course a crafted query that is intentionally gaming the
deficiency, but more benign queries that contain newlines would have
similar problems.
Ideally, we should have also changed the output to be NUL-delimited when
`-z` is specified to avoid this problem. As the input is NUL-delimited,
it is clear that the output in this case cannot ever contain NUL
characters by itself. Furthermore, Git does not allow NUL characters in
revisions anyway, further stressing the point that using NUL-delimited
output is safe. The only exception is of course the object data itself,
but as git-cat-file(1) prints the size of the object data clients should
read until that specified size has been consumed.
But even though `-z` has only been introduced a few releases ago in Git
v2.38.0, changing the output format retroactively to also NUL-delimit
output would be a backwards incompatible change. And while one could
make the argument that the output is inherently broken already, we need
to assume that there are existing users out there that use it just fine
given that revisions containing newlines are quite exotic.
Instead, introduce a new option `-Z` that switches to NUL-delimited
input and output. While this new option could arguably only switch the
output format to be NUL-delimited, the consequence would be that users
have to always specify both `-z` and `-Z` when the input may contain
newlines. On the other hand, if the user knows that there never will be
newlines in the input, they don't have to use either of those options.
There is thus no usecase that would warrant treating input and output
format separately, which is why we instead opt to "do the right thing"
and have `-Z` mean to NUL-terminate both formats.
The old `-z` option is marked as deprecated with a hint that its output
may become unparsable. It is thus hidden both from the synopsis as well
as the command's help output.

cat-file: skip expanding default format
When format is passed into --batch, --batch-check, --batch-command,
the format gets expanded. When nothing is passed in, the default format

cat-file: add option '-Z' that delimits input and output with NUL
In db9d67f2e9 (builtin/cat-file.c: support NUL-delimited input with
`-z`, 2022-07-22), we have introduced a new mode to read the input via
NUL-delimited records instead of newline-delimited records. This allows
the user to query for revisions that have newlines in their path
component. While unusual, such queries are perfectly valid and thus it
is clear that we should be able to support them properly.
Unfortunately, the commit only changed the input to be NUL-delimited,
but didn't change the output at the same time. While this is fine for
queries that are processed successfully, it is less so for queries that
aren't. In the case of missing commits for example the result can become
entirely unparsable:
```
$ printf "7ce4f05bae8120d9fa258e854a8669f6ea9cb7b1 blob 10\n1234567890\n\n\commit000" |
git cat-file --batch -z
7ce4f05bae8120d9fa258e854a8669f6ea9cb7b1 blob 10
1234567890
commit missing
```
This is of course a crafted query that is intentionally gaming the
deficiency, but more benign queries that contain newlines would have
similar problems.
Ideally, we should have also changed the output to be NUL-delimited when
`-z` is specified to avoid this problem. As the input is NUL-delimited,
it is clear that the output in this case cannot ever contain NUL
characters by itself. Furthermore, Git does not allow NUL characters in
revisions anyway, further stressing the point that using NUL-delimited
output is safe. The only exception is of course the object data itself,
but as git-cat-file(1) prints the size of the object data clients should
read until that specified size has been consumed.
But even though `-z` has only been introduced a few releases ago in Git
v2.38.0, changing the output format retroactively to also NUL-delimit
output would be a backwards incompatible change. And while one could
make the argument that the output is inherently broken already, we need
to assume that there are existing users out there that use it just fine
given that revisions containing newlines are quite exotic.

cat-file: use packed_object_info() for --batch-all-objects
When "cat-file --batch-all-objects" iterates over each object, it knows
where to find each one. But when we look up details of the object, we
don't use that information at all.
This patch teaches it to use the pack/offset pair when we're iterating
over objects in a pack. This yields a measurable speed improvement
(timings on a fully packed clone of linux.git):
Benchmark #1: ./git.old cat-file --batch-all-objects --unordered --batch-check="%(objecttype) %(objectname)"
Time (mean ± σ): 8.128 s ± 0.118 s [User: 7.968 s, System: 0.156 s]
Range (min … max): 8.007 s … 8.301 s 10 runs
Benchmark #2: ./git.new cat-file --batch-all-objects --unordered --batch-check="%(objecttype) %(objectname)"
Time (mean ± σ): 4.294 s ± 0.064 s [User: 4.167 s, System: 0.125 s]
Range (min … max): 4.227 s … 4.457 s 10 runs
Summary
'./git.new cat-file --batch-all-objects --unordered --batch-check="%(objecttype) %(objectname)"' ran
1.89 ± 0.04 times faster than './git.old cat-file --batch-all-objects --unordered --batch-check="%(objecttype) %(objectname)"
The implementation is pretty simple: we just call packed_object_info()
instead of oid_object_info_extended() when we can. Most of the changes
are just plumbing the pack/offset pair through the callstack. There is
one subtlety: replace lookups are not handled by packed_object_info().
But since those are disabled for --batch-all-objects, and since we'll
only have pack info when that option is in effect, we don't have to
worry about that.
There are a few limitations to this optimization which we could address
with further work:
- I didn't bother recording when we found an object loose. Technically
this could save us doing a fruitless lookup in the pack index. But
opening and mmap-ing a loose object is so expensive in the first
place that this doesn't matter much. And if your repository is large
enough to care about per-object performance, most objects are going
to be packed anyway.
- This works only in --unordered mode. For the sorted mode, we'd have
to record the pack/offset pair as part of our oid-collection. That's
more code, plus at least 16 extra bytes of heap per object. It would
probably still be a net win in runtime, but we'd need to measure.
- For --batch, this still helps us with getting the object metadata,
but we still do a from-scratch lookup for the object contents. This
probably doesn't matter that much, because the lookup cost will be
much smaller relative to the cost of actually unpacking and printing
the objects.
For small objects, we could probably swap out read_object_file() for
using packed_object_info() with a "object_info.contentp" to get the
contents. But we'd still need to deal with streaming for larger
objects. A better path forward here is to teach the initial
oid_object_info_extended() / packed_object_info() calls to retrieve
the contents of smaller objects while they are already being
accessed. That would save the extra lookup entirely. But it's a
non-trivial feature to add to the object_info code, so I left it for
now.

oid_object_info_extended() / packed_object_info() calls to retrieve
the contents of smaller objects while they are already being
accessed. That would save the extra lookup entirely. But it's a
non-trivial feature to add to the object_info code, so I left it for
now.

cat-file: add option '-Z' that delimits input and output with NUL
In db9d67f2e9 (builtin/cat-file.c: support NUL-delimited input with
`-z`, 2022-07-22), we have introduced a new mode to read the input via
NUL-delimited records instead of newline-delimited records. This allows
the user to query for revisions that have newlines in their path
component. While unusual, such queries are perfectly valid and thus it
is clear that we should be able to support them properly.
Unfortunately, the commit only changed the input to be NUL-delimited,
but didn't change the output at the same time. While this is fine for
queries that are processed successfully, it is less so for queries that
aren't. In the case of missing commits for example the result can become
entirely unparsable:
```
$ printf "7ce4f05bae8120d9fa258e854a8669f6ea9cb7b1 blob 10\n1234567890\n\n\commit000" |
git cat-file --batch -z
7ce4f05bae8120d9fa258e854a8669f6ea9cb7b1 blob 10
1234567890
commit missing
```
This is of course a crafted query that is intentionally gaming the
deficiency, but more benign queries that contain newlines would have
similar problems.
Ideally, we should have also changed the output to be NUL-delimited when
`-z` is specified to avoid this problem. As the input is NUL-delimited,
it is clear that the output in this case cannot ever contain NUL
characters by itself. Furthermore, Git does not allow NUL characters in
revisions anyway, further stressing the point that using NUL-delimited
output is safe. The only exception is of course the object data itself,
but as git-cat-file(1) prints the size of the object data clients should
read until that specified size has been consumed.
But even though `-z` has only been introduced a few releases ago in Git
v2.38.0, changing the output format retroactively to also NUL-delimit
output would be a backwards incompatible change. And while one could
make the argument that the output is inherently broken already, we need
to assume that there are existing users out there that use it just fine
given that revisions containing newlines are quite exotic.
Instead, introduce a new option `-Z` that switches to NUL-delimited
input and output. While this new option could arguably only switch the
output format to be NUL-delimited, the consequence would be that users
have to always specify both `-z` and `-Z` when the input may contain
newlines. On the other hand, if the user knows that there never will be
newlines in the input, they don't have to use either of those options.
There is thus no usecase that would warrant treating input and output
format separately, which is why we instead opt to "do the right thing"
and have `-Z` mean to NUL-terminate both formats.
The old `-z` option is marked as deprecated with a hint that its output
may become unparsable. It is thus hidden both from the synopsis as well
as the command's help output.

cat-file: use packed_object_info() for --batch-all-objects
When "cat-file --batch-all-objects" iterates over each object, it knows
where to find each one. But when we look up details of the object, we
don't use that information at all.
This patch teaches it to use the pack/offset pair when we're iterating
over objects in a pack. This yields a measurable speed improvement
(timings on a fully packed clone of linux.git):
Benchmark #1: ./git.old cat-file --batch-all-objects --unordered --batch-check="%(objecttype) %(objectname)"
Time (mean ± σ): 8.128 s ± 0.118 s [User: 7.968 s, System: 0.156 s]
Range (min … max): 8.007 s … 8.301 s 10 runs
Benchmark #2: ./git.new cat-file --batch-all-objects --unordered --batch-check="%(objecttype) %(objectname)"
Time (mean ± σ): 4.294 s ± 0.064 s [User: 4.167 s, System: 0.125 s]
Range (min … max): 4.227 s … 4.457 s 10 runs
Summary
'./git.new cat-file --batch-all-objects --unordered --batch-check="%(objecttype) %(objectname)"' ran
1.89 ± 0.04 times faster than './git.old cat-file --batch-all-objects --unordered --batch-check="%(objecttype) %(objectname)"
The implementation is pretty simple: we just call packed_object_info()
instead of oid_object_info_extended() when we can. Most of the changes
are just plumbing the pack/offset pair through the callstack. There is
one subtlety: replace lookups are not handled by packed_object_info().
But since those are disabled for --batch-all-objects, and since we'll
only have pack info when that option is in effect, we don't have to
worry about that.
There are a few limitations to this optimization which we could address
with further work:
- I didn't bother recording when we found an object loose. Technically
this could save us doing a fruitless lookup in the pack index. But
opening and mmap-ing a loose object is so expensive in the first
place that this doesn't matter much. And if your repository is large
enough to care about per-object performance, most objects are going
to be packed anyway.
- This works only in --unordered mode. For the sorted mode, we'd have
to record the pack/offset pair as part of our oid-collection. That's
more code, plus at least 16 extra bytes of heap per object. It would
probably still be a net win in runtime, but we'd need to measure.
- For --batch, this still helps us with getting the object metadata,
but we still do a from-scratch lookup for the object contents. This
probably doesn't matter that much, because the lookup cost will be
much smaller relative to the cost of actually unpacking and printing
the objects.
For small objects, we could probably swap out read_object_file() for
using packed_object_info() with a "object_info.contentp" to get the
contents. But we'd still need to deal with streaming for larger
objects. A better path forward here is to teach the initial
oid_object_info_extended() / packed_object_info() calls to retrieve
the contents of smaller objects while they are already being
accessed. That would save the extra lookup entirely. But it's a
non-trivial feature to add to the object_info code, so I left it for
now.

cat-file: skip expanding default format
When format is passed into --batch, --batch-check, --batch-command,

is set and the expand_format() gets called.
We can save on these cycles by hardcoding how to print the

format is passed. There is no need for the fully expanded format with
the default. Since batch_object_write() happens on every object provided
in batch mode, we get a nice performance improvement.

NUL-delimited records instead of newline-delimited records. This allows
the user to query for revisions that have newlines in their path
component. While unusual, such queries are perfectly valid and thus it
is clear that we should be able to support them properly.
Unfortunately, the commit only changed the input to be NUL-delimited,
but didn't change the output at the same time. While this is fine for
queries that are processed successfully, it is less so for queries that
aren't. In the case of missing commits for example the result can become
entirely unparsable:
```

This is of course a crafted query that is intentionally gaming the

similar problems.
Ideally, we should have also changed the output to be NUL-delimited when
`-z` is specified to avoid this problem. As the input is NUL-delimited,

revisions anyway, further stressing the point that using NUL-delimited
output is safe. The only exception is of course the object data itself,
but as git-cat-file(1) prints the size of the object data clients should
read until that specified size has been consumed.
But even though `-z` has only been introduced a few releases ago in Git
v2.38.0, changing the output format retroactively to also NUL-delimit
output would be a backwards incompatible change. And while one could
make the argument that the output is inherently broken already, we need
to assume that there are existing users out there that use it just fine
given that revisions containing newlines are quite exotic.
Instead, introduce a new option `-Z` that switches to NUL-delimited
input and output. While this new option could arguably only switch the
output format to be NUL-delimited, the consequence would be that users
have to always specify both `-z` and `-Z` when the input may contain
newlines. On the other hand, if the user knows that there never will be
newlines in the input, they don't have to use either of those options.
There is thus no usecase that would warrant treating input and output
format separately, which is why we instead opt to "do the right thing"
and have `-Z` mean to NUL-terminate both formats.
The old `-z` option is marked as deprecated with a hint that its output
may become unparsable. It is thus hidden both from the synopsis as well
as the command's help output.

cat-file: use packed_object_info() for --batch-all-objects
When "cat-file --batch-all-objects" iterates over each object, it knows
where to find each one. But when we look up details of the object, we
don't use that information at all.
This patch teaches it to use the pack/offset pair when we're iterating
over objects in a pack. This yields a measurable speed improvement
(timings on a fully packed clone of linux.git):
Benchmark #1: ./git.old cat-file --batch-all-objects --unordered --batch-check="%(objecttype) %(objectname)"
Time (mean ± σ): 8.128 s ± 0.118 s [User: 7.968 s, System: 0.156 s]
Range (min … max): 8.007 s … 8.301 s 10 runs
Benchmark #2: ./git.new cat-file --batch-all-objects --unordered --batch-check="%(objecttype) %(objectname)"
Time (mean ± σ): 4.294 s ± 0.064 s [User: 4.167 s, System: 0.125 s]
Range (min … max): 4.227 s … 4.457 s 10 runs
Summary
'./git.new cat-file --batch-all-objects --unordered --batch-check="%(objecttype) %(objectname)"' ran
1.89 ± 0.04 times faster than './git.old cat-file --batch-all-objects --unordered --batch-check="%(objecttype) %(objectname)"
The implementation is pretty simple: we just call packed_object_info()
instead of oid_object_info_extended() when we can. Most of the changes
are just plumbing the pack/offset pair through the callstack. There is
one subtlety: replace lookups are not handled by packed_object_info().
But since those are disabled for --batch-all-objects, and since we'll
only have pack info when that option is in effect, we don't have to
worry about that.
There are a few limitations to this optimization which we could address
with further work:
- I didn't bother recording when we found an object loose. Technically
this could save us doing a fruitless lookup in the pack index. But
opening and mmap-ing a loose object is so expensive in the first
place that this doesn't matter much. And if your repository is large
enough to care about per-object performance, most objects are going
to be packed anyway.
- This works only in --unordered mode. For the sorted mode, we'd have
to record the pack/offset pair as part of our oid-collection. That's
more code, plus at least 16 extra bytes of heap per object. It would
probably still be a net win in runtime, but we'd need to measure.
- For --batch, this still helps us with getting the object metadata,
but we still do a from-scratch lookup for the object contents. This
probably doesn't matter that much, because the lookup cost will be
much smaller relative to the cost of actually unpacking and printing
the objects.
For small objects, we could probably swap out read_object_file() for
using packed_object_info() with a "object_info.contentp" to get the
contents. But we'd still need to deal with streaming for larger
objects. A better path forward here is to teach the initial
oid_object_info_extended() / packed_object_info() calls to retrieve
the contents of smaller objects while they are already being
accessed. That would save the extra lookup entirely. But it's a
non-trivial feature to add to the object_info code, so I left it for
now.

cat-file: support "unordered" output for --batch-all-objects
If you're going to access the contents of every object in a
packfile, it's generally much more efficient to do so in
pack order, rather than in hash order. That increases the
locality of access within the packfile, which in turn is
friendlier to the delta base cache, since the packfile puts
related deltas next to each other. By contrast, hash order
is effectively random, since the sha1 has no discernible
relationship to the content.
This patch introduces an "--unordered" option to cat-file
which iterates over packs in pack-order under the hood. You
can see the results when dumping all of the file content:
$ time ./git cat-file --batch-all-objects --buffer --batch | wc -c
6883195596
real 0m44.491s
user 0m42.902s
sys 0m5.230s
$ time ./git cat-file --unordered \
--batch-all-objects --buffer --batch | wc -c
6883195596
real 0m6.075s
user 0m4.774s
sys 0m3.548s
Same output, different order, way faster. The same speed-up
applies even if you end up accessing the object content in a
different process, like:
git cat-file --batch-all-objects --buffer --batch-check |
grep blob |
git cat-file --batch='%(objectname) %(rest)' |
wc -c
Adding "--unordered" to the first command drops the runtime
in git.git from 24s to 3.5s.
Side note: there are actually further speedups available
for doing it all in-process now. Since we are outputting
the object content during the actual pack iteration, we
know where to find the object and could skip the extra
lookup done by oid_object_info(). This patch stops short
of that optimization since the underlying API isn't ready
for us to make those sorts of direct requests.
So if --unordered is so much better, why not make it the
default? Two reasons:
1. We've promised in the documentation that --batch-all-objects
outputs in hash order. Since cat-file is plumbing,
people may be relying on that default, and we can't
change it.
2. It's actually _slower_ for some cases. We have to
compute the pack revindex to walk in pack order. And
our de-duplication step uses an oidset, rather than a
sort-and-dedup, which can end up being more expensive.
If we're just accessing the type and size of each
object, for example, like:
git cat-file --batch-all-objects --buffer --batch-check
my best-of-five warm cache timings go from 900ms to
1100ms using --unordered. Though it's possible in a
cold-cache or under memory pressure that we could do
better, since we'd have better locality within the
packfile.
And one final question: why is it "--unordered" and not
"--pack-order"? The answer is again two-fold:
1. "pack order" isn't a well-defined thing across the
whole set of objects. We're hitting loose objects, as
well as objects in multiple packs, and the only
ordering we're promising is _within_ a single pack. The
rest is apparently random.
2. The point here is optimization. So we don't want to
promise any particular ordering, but only to say that
we will choose an ordering which is likely to be
efficient for accessing the object content. That leaves
the door open for further changes in the future without
having to add another compatibility option.

There are a few limitations to this optimization which we could address

this could save us doing a fruitless lookup in the pack index. But
opening and mmap-ing a loose object is so expensive in the first

to be packed anyway.
- This works only in --unordered mode. For the sorted mode, we'd have
to record the pack/offset pair as part of our oid-collection. That's
more code, plus at least 16 extra bytes of heap per object. It would
probably still be a net win in runtime, but we'd need to measure.
- For --batch, this still helps us with getting the object metadata,
but we still do a from-scratch lookup for the object contents. This
probably doesn't matter that much, because the lookup cost will be
much smaller relative to the cost of actually unpacking and printing
the objects.
For small objects, we could probably swap out read_object_file() for
using packed_object_info() with a "object_info.contentp" to get the
contents. But we'd still need to deal with streaming for larger
objects. A better path forward here is to teach the initial
oid_object_info_extended() / packed_object_info() calls to retrieve
the contents of smaller objects while they are already being
accessed. That would save the extra lookup entirely. But it's a
non-trivial feature to add to the object_info code, so I left it for
now.

cat-file: support "unordered" output for --batch-all-objects
If you're going to access the contents of every object in a
packfile, it's generally much more efficient to do so in
pack order, rather than in hash order. That increases the
locality of access within the packfile, which in turn is
friendlier to the delta base cache, since the packfile puts
related deltas next to each other. By contrast, hash order
is effectively random, since the sha1 has no discernible
relationship to the content.
This patch introduces an "--unordered" option to cat-file
which iterates over packs in pack-order under the hood. You
can see the results when dumping all of the file content:
$ time ./git cat-file --batch-all-objects --buffer --batch | wc -c
6883195596
real 0m44.491s
user 0m42.902s
sys 0m5.230s
$ time ./git cat-file --unordered \
--batch-all-objects --buffer --batch | wc -c
6883195596
real 0m6.075s
user 0m4.774s
sys 0m3.548s
Same output, different order, way faster. The same speed-up
applies even if you end up accessing the object content in a
different process, like:
git cat-file --batch-all-objects --buffer --batch-check |
grep blob |
git cat-file --batch='%(objectname) %(rest)' |
wc -c
Adding "--unordered" to the first command drops the runtime
in git.git from 24s to 3.5s.
Side note: there are actually further speedups available
for doing it all in-process now. Since we are outputting
the object content during the actual pack iteration, we
know where to find the object and could skip the extra
lookup done by oid_object_info(). This patch stops short
of that optimization since the underlying API isn't ready
for us to make those sorts of direct requests.
So if --unordered is so much better, why not make it the
default? Two reasons:
1. We've promised in the documentation that --batch-all-objects
outputs in hash order. Since cat-file is plumbing,
people may be relying on that default, and we can't
change it.
2. It's actually _slower_ for some cases. We have to
compute the pack revindex to walk in pack order. And
our de-duplication step uses an oidset, rather than a
sort-and-dedup, which can end up being more expensive.
If we're just accessing the type and size of each
object, for example, like:
git cat-file --batch-all-objects --buffer --batch-check
my best-of-five warm cache timings go from 900ms to
1100ms using --unordered. Though it's possible in a
cold-cache or under memory pressure that we could do
better, since we'd have better locality within the
packfile.
And one final question: why is it "--unordered" and not
"--pack-order"? The answer is again two-fold:
1. "pack order" isn't a well-defined thing across the
whole set of objects. We're hitting loose objects, as
well as objects in multiple packs, and the only
ordering we're promising is _within_ a single pack. The
rest is apparently random.
2. The point here is optimization. So we don't want to
promise any particular ordering, but only to say that
we will choose an ordering which is likely to be
efficient for accessing the object content. That leaves
the door open for further changes in the future without
having to add another compatibility option.

cat-file: use packed_object_info() for --batch-all-objects
When "cat-file --batch-all-objects" iterates over each object, it knows
where to find each one. But when we look up details of the object, we
don't use that information at all.
This patch teaches it to use the pack/offset pair when we're iterating
over objects in a pack. This yields a measurable speed improvement
(timings on a fully packed clone of linux.git):
Benchmark #1: ./git.old cat-file --batch-all-objects --unordered --batch-check="%(objecttype) %(objectname)"
Time (mean ± σ): 8.128 s ± 0.118 s [User: 7.968 s, System: 0.156 s]
Range (min … max): 8.007 s … 8.301 s 10 runs
Benchmark #2: ./git.new cat-file --batch-all-objects --unordered --batch-check="%(objecttype) %(objectname)"
Time (mean ± σ): 4.294 s ± 0.064 s [User: 4.167 s, System: 0.125 s]
Range (min … max): 4.227 s … 4.457 s 10 runs
Summary
'./git.new cat-file --batch-all-objects --unordered --batch-check="%(objecttype) %(objectname)"' ran
1.89 ± 0.04 times faster than './git.old cat-file --batch-all-objects --unordered --batch-check="%(objecttype) %(objectname)"
The implementation is pretty simple: we just call packed_object_info()
instead of oid_object_info_extended() when we can. Most of the changes
are just plumbing the pack/offset pair through the callstack. There is
one subtlety: replace lookups are not handled by packed_object_info().
But since those are disabled for --batch-all-objects, and since we'll
only have pack info when that option is in effect, we don't have to
worry about that.
There are a few limitations to this optimization which we could address
with further work:
- I didn't bother recording when we found an object loose. Technically
this could save us doing a fruitless lookup in the pack index. But
opening and mmap-ing a loose object is so expensive in the first
place that this doesn't matter much. And if your repository is large
enough to care about per-object performance, most objects are going
to be packed anyway.
- This works only in --unordered mode. For the sorted mode, we'd have
to record the pack/offset pair as part of our oid-collection. That's
more code, plus at least 16 extra bytes of heap per object. It would
probably still be a net win in runtime, but we'd need to measure.
- For --batch, this still helps us with getting the object metadata,
but we still do a from-scratch lookup for the object contents. This
probably doesn't matter that much, because the lookup cost will be
much smaller relative to the cost of actually unpacking and printing
the objects.
For small objects, we could probably swap out read_object_file() for
using packed_object_info() with a "object_info.contentp" to get the
contents. But we'd still need to deal with streaming for larger
objects. A better path forward here is to teach the initial
oid_object_info_extended() / packed_object_info() calls to retrieve
the contents of smaller objects while they are already being

cat-file: add --batch-command mode
Add a new flag --batch-command that accepts commands and arguments
from stdin, similar to git-update-ref --stdin.
At GitLab, we use a pair of long running cat-file processes when
accessing object content. One for iterating over object metadata with
--batch-check, and the other to grab object contents with --batch.
However, if we had --batch-command, we wouldn't need to keep both
processes around, and instead just have one --batch-command process
where we can flip between getting object info, and getting object
contents. Since we have a pair of cat-file processes per repository,
this means we can get rid of roughly half of long lived git cat-file
processes. Given there are many repositories being accessed at any given
time, this can lead to huge savings.
git cat-file --batch-command
will enter an interactive command mode whereby the user can enter in
commands and their arguments that get queued in memory:
<command1> [arg1] [arg2] LF
<command2> [arg1] [arg2] LF
When --buffer mode is used, commands will be queued in memory until a
flush command is issued that execute them:
flush LF
The reason for a flush command is that when a consumer process (A)
talks to a git cat-file process (B) and interactively writes to and
reads from it in --buffer mode, (A) needs to be able to control when
the buffer is flushed to stdout.
Currently, from (A)'s perspective, the only way is to either
1. kill (B)'s process
2. send an invalid object to stdin.
1. is not ideal from a performance perspective as it will require
spawning a new cat-file process each time, and 2. is hacky and not a
good long term solution.
With this mechanism of queueing up commands and letting (A) issue a
flush command, process (A) can control when the buffer is flushed and
can guarantee it will receive all of the output when in --buffer mode.
--batch-command also will not allow (B) to flush to stdout until a flush
is received.
This patch adds the basic structure for adding command which can be
extended in the future to add more commands. It also adds the following
two commands (on top of the flush command):
contents <object> LF
info <object> LF
The contents command takes an <object> argument and prints out the object
contents.
The info command takes an <object> argument and prints out the object
metadata.
These can be used in the following way with --buffer:
info <object> LF
contents <object> LF
contents <object> LF
info <object> LF
flush LF
info <object> LF
flush LF
When used without --buffer:
info <object> LF
contents <object> LF
contents <object> LF
info <object> LF
info <object> LF

cat-file: add --batch-command mode
Add a new flag --batch-command that accepts commands and arguments
from stdin, similar to git-update-ref --stdin.
At GitLab, we use a pair of long running cat-file processes when
accessing object content. One for iterating over object metadata with
--batch-check, and the other to grab object contents with --batch.
However, if we had --batch-command, we wouldn't need to keep both
processes around, and instead just have one --batch-command process
where we can flip between getting object info, and getting object
contents. Since we have a pair of cat-file processes per repository,
this means we can get rid of roughly half of long lived git cat-file
processes. Given there are many repositories being accessed at any given
time, this can lead to huge savings.
git cat-file --batch-command
will enter an interactive command mode whereby the user can enter in
commands and their arguments that get queued in memory:
<command1> [arg1] [arg2] LF
<command2> [arg1] [arg2] LF
When --buffer mode is used, commands will be queued in memory until a
flush command is issued that execute them:
flush LF
The reason for a flush command is that when a consumer process (A)
talks to a git cat-file process (B) and interactively writes to and
reads from it in --buffer mode, (A) needs to be able to control when
the buffer is flushed to stdout.
Currently, from (A)'s perspective, the only way is to either
1. kill (B)'s process
2. send an invalid object to stdin.
1. is not ideal from a performance perspective as it will require
spawning a new cat-file process each time, and 2. is hacky and not a
good long term solution.
With this mechanism of queueing up commands and letting (A) issue a
flush command, process (A) can control when the buffer is flushed and
can guarantee it will receive all of the output when in --buffer mode.
--batch-command also will not allow (B) to flush to stdout until a flush
is received.
This patch adds the basic structure for adding command which can be
extended in the future to add more commands. It also adds the following
two commands (on top of the flush command):
contents <object> LF
info <object> LF
The contents command takes an <object> argument and prints out the object
contents.
The info command takes an <object> argument and prints out the object
metadata.
These can be used in the following way with --buffer:
info <object> LF
contents <object> LF
contents <object> LF
info <object> LF
flush LF
info <object> LF
flush LF
When used without --buffer:
info <object> LF
contents <object> LF
contents <object> LF
info <object> LF
info <object> LF

cat-file: skip expanding default format
When format is passed into --batch, --batch-check, --batch-command,
the format gets expanded. When nothing is passed in, the default format
is set and the expand_format() gets called.
We can save on these cycles by hardcoding how to print the
information when nothing is passed as the format, or when the default
format is passed. There is no need for the fully expanded format with
the default. Since batch_object_write() happens on every object provided
in batch mode, we get a nice performance improvement.

cat-file: handle --batch format with missing type/size
Commit 98e2092 taught cat-file to stream blobs with --batch,
which requires that we look up the object type before
loading it into memory. As a result, we now print the
object header from information in sha1_object_info, and the
actual contents from the read_sha1_file. We double-check
that the information we printed in the header matches the
content we are about to show.
Later, commit 93d2a60 allowed custom header lines for
--batch, and commit 5b08640 made type lookups optional. As a
result, specifying a header line without the type or size
means that we will not look up those items at all.
This causes our double-checking to erroneously die with an
error; we think the type or size has changed, when in fact
it was simply left at "0".
For the size, we can fix this by only doing the consistency
double-check when we have retrieved the size via
sha1_object_info. In the case that we have not retrieved the
value, that means we also did not print it, so there is
nothing for us to check that we are consistent with.
We could do the same for the type. However, besides our
consistency check, we also care about the type in deciding
whether to stream or not. So instead of handling the case
where we do not know the type, this patch instead makes sure
that we always trigger a type lookup when we are printing,
so that even a format without the type will stream as we
would in the normal case.

cat-file: disable refs/replace with --batch-all-objects
When we're enumerating all objects in the object database, it doesn't
make sense to respect refs/replace. The point of this option is to
enumerate all of the objects in the database at a low level. By
definition we'd already show the replacement object's contents (under
its real oid), and showing those contents under another oid is almost
certainly working against what the user is trying to do.
Note that you could make the same argument for something like:
git show-index <foo.idx |
awk '{print $2}' |
git cat-file --batch
but there we can't know in cat-file exactly what the user intended,
because we don't know the source of the input. They could be trying to
do low-level debugging, or they could be doing something more high-level
(e.g., imagine a porcelain built around cat-file for its object
accesses). So in those cases, we'll have to rely on the user specifying
"git --no-replace-objects" to tell us what to do.
One _could_ make an argument that "cat-file --batch" is sufficiently
low-level plumbing that it should not respect replace-objects at all
(and the caller should do any replacement if they want it). But we have
been doing so for some time. The history is a little tangled:
- looking back as far as v1.6.6, we would not respect replace refs for
--batch-check, but would for --batch (because the former used
sha1_object_info(), and the replace mechanism only affected actual
object reads)
- this discrepancy was made even weirder by 98e2092b50 (cat-file:
teach --batch to stream blob objects, 2013-07-10), where we always
output the header using the --batch-check code, and then printed the
object separately. This could lead to "cat-file --batch" dying (when
it notices the size or type changed for a non-blob object) or even
producing bogus output (in streaming mode, we didn't notice that we
wrote the wrong number of bytes).
- that persisted until 1f7117ef7a (sha1_file: perform object
replacement in sha1_object_info_extended(), 2013-12-11), which then
respected replace refs for both forms.
So it has worked reliably this way for over 7 years, and we should make
sure it continues to do so. That could also be an argument that
--batch-all-objects should not change behavior (which this patch is
doing), but I really consider the current behavior to be an unintended
bug. It's a side effect of how the code is implemented (feeding the oids
back into oid_object_info() rather than looking at what we found while
reading the loose and packed object storage).
The implementation is straight-forward: we just disable the global
read_replace_refs flag when we're in --batch-all-objects mode. It would
perhaps be a little cleaner to change the flag we pass to
oid_object_info_extended(), but that's not enough. We also read objects
via read_object_file() and stream_blob_to_fd(). The former could switch
to its _extended() form, but the streaming code has no mechanism for
disabling replace refs. Setting the global flag works, and as a bonus,
it's impossible to have any "oops, we're sometimes replacing the object
and sometimes not" bugs in the output (like the ones caused by
98e2092b50 above).
The tests here cover the regular-input and --batch-all-objects cases,
for both --batch-check and --batch. There is a test in t6050 that covers
the regular-input case with --batch already, but this new one goes much
further in actually verifying the output (plus covering --batch-check
explicitly). This is perhaps a little overkill and the tests would be
simpler just covering --batch-check, but I wanted to make sure we're
checking that --batch output is consistent between the header and the
content. The global-flag technique used here makes that easy to get
right, but this is future-proofing us against regressions.

cat-file: support "unordered" output for --batch-all-objects
If you're going to access the contents of every object in a
packfile, it's generally much more efficient to do so in
pack order, rather than in hash order. That increases the
locality of access within the packfile, which in turn is
friendlier to the delta base cache, since the packfile puts
related deltas next to each other. By contrast, hash order
is effectively random, since the sha1 has no discernible
relationship to the content.
This patch introduces an "--unordered" option to cat-file
which iterates over packs in pack-order under the hood. You
can see the results when dumping all of the file content:
$ time ./git cat-file --batch-all-objects --buffer --batch | wc -c
6883195596
real 0m44.491s
user 0m42.902s
sys 0m5.230s
$ time ./git cat-file --unordered \
--batch-all-objects --buffer --batch | wc -c
6883195596
real 0m6.075s
user 0m4.774s
sys 0m3.548s
Same output, different order, way faster. The same speed-up
applies even if you end up accessing the object content in a
different process, like:
git cat-file --batch-all-objects --buffer --batch-check |
grep blob |
git cat-file --batch='%(objectname) %(rest)' |
wc -c
Adding "--unordered" to the first command drops the runtime
in git.git from 24s to 3.5s.
Side note: there are actually further speedups available
for doing it all in-process now. Since we are outputting
the object content during the actual pack iteration, we
know where to find the object and could skip the extra
lookup done by oid_object_info(). This patch stops short
of that optimization since the underlying API isn't ready
for us to make those sorts of direct requests.
So if --unordered is so much better, why not make it the
default? Two reasons:
1. We've promised in the documentation that --batch-all-objects
outputs in hash order. Since cat-file is plumbing,
people may be relying on that default, and we can't
change it.
2. It's actually _slower_ for some cases. We have to
compute the pack revindex to walk in pack order. And
our de-duplication step uses an oidset, rather than a
sort-and-dedup, which can end up being more expensive.
If we're just accessing the type and size of each
object, for example, like:
git cat-file --batch-all-objects --buffer --batch-check
my best-of-five warm cache timings go from 900ms to
1100ms using --unordered. Though it's possible in a
cold-cache or under memory pressure that we could do
better, since we'd have better locality within the
packfile.
And one final question: why is it "--unordered" and not
"--pack-order"? The answer is again two-fold:
1. "pack order" isn't a well-defined thing across the
whole set of objects. We're hitting loose objects, as
well as objects in multiple packs, and the only
ordering we're promising is _within_ a single pack. The
rest is apparently random.
2. The point here is optimization. So we don't want to
promise any particular ordering, but only to say that
we will choose an ordering which is likely to be
efficient for accessing the object content. That leaves
the door open for further changes in the future without
having to add another compatibility option.

cat-file: disable object/refname ambiguity check for batch mode
A common use of "cat-file --batch-check" is to feed a list
of objects from "rev-list --objects" or a similar command.
In this instance, all of our input objects are 40-byte sha1
ids. However, cat-file has always allowed arbitrary revision
specifiers, and feeds the result to get_sha1().
Fortunately, get_sha1() recognizes a 40-byte sha1 before
doing any hard work trying to look up refs, meaning this
scenario should end up spending very little time converting
the input into an object sha1. However, since 798c35f
(get_sha1: warn about full or short object names that look
like refs, 2013-05-29), when we encounter this case, we
spend the extra effort to do a refname lookup anyway, just
to print a warning. This is further exacerbated by ca91993
(get_packed_ref_cache: reload packed-refs file when it
changes, 2013-06-20), which makes individual ref lookup more
expensive by requiring a stat() of the packed-refs file for
each missing ref.
With no patches, this is the time it takes to run:
$ git rev-list --objects --all >objects
$ time git cat-file --batch-check='%(objectname)' <objects
on the linux.git repository:
real 1m13.494s
user 0m25.924s
sys 0m47.532s
If we revert ca91993, the packed-refs up-to-date check, it
gets a little better:
real 0m54.697s
user 0m21.692s
sys 0m32.916s
but we are still spending quite a bit of time on ref lookup
(and we would not want to revert that patch, anyway, which
has correctness issues). If we revert 798c35f, disabling
the warning entirely, we get a much more reasonable time:
real 0m7.452s
user 0m6.836s
sys 0m0.608s
This patch does the moral equivalent of this final case (and
gets similar speedups). We introduce a global flag that
callers of get_sha1() can use to avoid paying the price for
the warning.

cat-file: add --batch-command mode
Add a new flag --batch-command that accepts commands and arguments
from stdin, similar to git-update-ref --stdin.
At GitLab, we use a pair of long running cat-file processes when
accessing object content. One for iterating over object metadata with
--batch-check, and the other to grab object contents with --batch.
However, if we had --batch-command, we wouldn't need to keep both
processes around, and instead just have one --batch-command process
where we can flip between getting object info, and getting object
contents. Since we have a pair of cat-file processes per repository,
this means we can get rid of roughly half of long lived git cat-file
processes. Given there are many repositories being accessed at any given
time, this can lead to huge savings.
git cat-file --batch-command
will enter an interactive command mode whereby the user can enter in
commands and their arguments that get queued in memory:
<command1> [arg1] [arg2] LF
<command2> [arg1] [arg2] LF
When --buffer mode is used, commands will be queued in memory until a
flush command is issued that execute them:
flush LF
The reason for a flush command is that when a consumer process (A)
talks to a git cat-file process (B) and interactively writes to and
reads from it in --buffer mode, (A) needs to be able to control when
the buffer is flushed to stdout.
Currently, from (A)'s perspective, the only way is to either
1. kill (B)'s process
2. send an invalid object to stdin.
1. is not ideal from a performance perspective as it will require
spawning a new cat-file process each time, and 2. is hacky and not a
good long term solution.
With this mechanism of queueing up commands and letting (A) issue a
flush command, process (A) can control when the buffer is flushed and
can guarantee it will receive all of the output when in --buffer mode.
--batch-command also will not allow (B) to flush to stdout until a flush
is received.
This patch adds the basic structure for adding command which can be
extended in the future to add more commands. It also adds the following
two commands (on top of the flush command):
contents <object> LF
info <object> LF
The contents command takes an <object> argument and prints out the object
contents.
The info command takes an <object> argument and prints out the object
metadata.
These can be used in the following way with --buffer:
info <object> LF
contents <object> LF
contents <object> LF
info <object> LF
flush LF
info <object> LF
flush LF
When used without --buffer:
info <object> LF
contents <object> LF
contents <object> LF
info <object> LF
info <object> LF

cat-file: only split on whitespace when %(rest) is used
Commit c334b87b (cat-file: split --batch input lines on whitespace,
2013-07-11) taught `cat-file --batch-check` to split input lines on
the first whitespace, and stash everything after the first token
into the %(rest) output format element. It claimed:
Object names cannot contain spaces, so any input with
spaces would have resulted in a "missing" line.
But that is not correct. Refs, object sha1s, and various peeling
suffixes cannot contain spaces, but some object names can. In
particular:
1. Tree paths like "[<tree>]:path with whitespace"
2. Reflog specifications like "@{2 days ago}"
3. Commit searches like "rev^{/grep me}" or ":/grep me"
To remain backwards compatible, we cannot split on whitespace by
default, hence we will ship 1.8.4 with the commit reverted.
Resurrect its attempt but in a weaker form; only do the splitting
when "%(rest)" is used in the output format. Since that element did
not exist at all before c334b87, old scripts cannot be affected.
The existence of object names with spaces does mean that you
cannot reliably do:
echo ":path with space and other data" |
git cat-file --batch-check="%(objectname) %(rest)"
as it would split the path and feed only ":path" to get_sha1. But
that command is nonsensical. If you wanted to see "and other data"
in "%(rest)", git cannot possibly know where the filename ends and
the "rest" begins.
It might be more robust to have something like "-z" to separate the
input elements. But this patch is still a reasonable step before
having that. It makes the easy cases easy; people who do not care
about %(rest) do not have to consider it, and the %(rest) code
handles the spaces and newlines of "rev-list --objects" correctly.
Hard cases remain hard but possible (if you might get whitespace in
your input, you do not get to use %(rest) and must split and join
the output yourself using more flexible tools). And most
importantly, it does not preclude us from having different splitting
rules later if a "-z" (or similar) option is added. So we can make
the hard cases easier later, if we choose to.

config: add ctx arg to config_fn_t
Add a new "const struct config_context *ctx" arg to config_fn_t to hold
additional information about the config iteration operation.
config_context has a "struct key_value_info kvi" member that holds
metadata about the config source being read (e.g. what kind of config
source it is, the filename, etc). In this series, we're only interested
in .kvi, so we could have just used "struct key_value_info" as an arg,
but config_context makes it possible to add/adjust members in the future
without changing the config_fn_t signature. We could also consider other
ways of organizing the args (e.g. moving the config name and value into
config_context or key_value_info), but in my experiments, the
incremental benefit doesn't justify the added complexity (e.g. a
config_fn_t will sometimes invoke another config_fn_t but with a
different config value).
In subsequent commits, the .kvi member will replace the global "struct
config_reader" in config.c, making config iteration a global-free
operation. It requires much more work for the machinery to provide
meaningful values of .kvi, so for now, merely change the signature and
call sites, pass NULL as a placeholder value, and don't rely on the arg
in any meaningful way.
Most of the changes are performed by
contrib/coccinelle/config_fn_ctx.pending.cocci, which, for every
config_fn_t:
- Modifies the signature to accept "const struct config_context *ctx"
- Passes "ctx" to any inner config_fn_t, if needed
- Adds UNUSED attributes to "ctx", if needed
Most config_fn_t instances are easily identified by seeing if they are
called by the various config functions. Most of the remaining ones are
manually named in the .cocci patch. Manual cleanups are still needed,
but the majority of it is trivial; it's either adjusting config_fn_t
that the .cocci patch didn't catch, or adding forward declarations of
"struct config_context ctx" to make the signatures make sense.
The non-trivial changes are in cases where we are invoking a config_fn_t
outside of config machinery, and we now need to decide what value of
"ctx" to pass. These cases are:
- trace2/tr2_cfg.c:tr2_cfg_set_fl()
This is indirectly called by git_config_set() so that the trace2
machinery can notice the new config values and update its settings
using the tr2 config parsing function, i.e. tr2_cfg_cb().
- builtin/checkout.c:checkout_main()
This calls git_xmerge_config() as a shorthand for parsing a CLI arg.
This might be worth refactoring away in the future, since
git_xmerge_config() can call git_default_config(), which can do much
more than just parsing.
Handle them by creating a KVI_INIT macro that initializes "struct
key_value_info" to a reasonable default, and use that to construct the
"ctx" arg.

drop odd return value semantics from userdiff_config
When the userdiff_config function was introduced in be58e70
(diff: unify external diff and funcname parsing code,
2008-10-05), it used a return value convention unlike any
other config callback. Like other callbacks, it used "-1" to
signal error. But it returned "1" to indicate that it found
something, and "0" otherwise; other callbacks simply
returned "0" to indicate that no error occurred.
This distinction was necessary at the time, because the
userdiff namespace overlapped slightly with the color
configuration namespace. So "diff.color.foo" could mean "the
'foo' slot of diff coloring" or "the 'foo' component of the
"color" userdiff driver". Because the color-parsing code
would die on an unknown color slot, we needed the userdiff
code to indicate that it had matched the variable, letting
us bypass the color-parsing code entirely.
Later, in 8b8e862 (ignore unknown color configuration,
2009-12-12), the color-parsing code learned to silently
ignore unknown slots. This means we no longer need to
protect userdiff-matched variables from reaching the
color-parsing code.
We can therefore change the userdiff_config calling
convention to a more normal one. This drops some code from
each caller, which is nice. But more importantly, it reduces
the cognitive load for readers who may wonder why
userdiff_config is unlike every other config callback.
There's no need to add a new test confirming that this
works; t4020 already contains a test that sets
diff.color.external.

assert NOARG/NONEG behavior of parse-options callbacks
When we define a parse-options callback, the flags we put in the option
struct must match what the callback expects. For example, a callback
which does not handle the "unset" parameter should only be used with
PARSE_OPT_NONEG. But since the callback and the option struct are not
defined next to each other, it's easy to get this wrong (as earlier
patches in this series show).
Fortunately, the compiler can help us here: compiling with
-Wunused-parameters can show us which callbacks ignore their "unset"
parameters (and likewise, ones that ignore "arg" expect to be triggered
with PARSE_OPT_NOARG).
But after we've inspected a callback and determined that all of its
callers use the right flags, what do we do next? We'd like to silence
the compiler warning, but do so in a way that will catch any wrong calls
in the future.
We can do that by actually checking those variables and asserting that
they match our expectations. Because this is such a common pattern,
we'll introduce some helper macros. The resulting messages aren't
as descriptive as we could make them, but the file/line information from
BUG() is enough to identify the problem (and anyway, the point is that
these should never be seen).
Each of the annotated callbacks in this patch triggers
-Wunused-parameters, and was manually inspected to make sure all callers
use the correct options (so none of these BUGs should be triggerable).

cat-file: add --batch-command mode
Add a new flag --batch-command that accepts commands and arguments
from stdin, similar to git-update-ref --stdin.
At GitLab, we use a pair of long running cat-file processes when
accessing object content. One for iterating over object metadata with
--batch-check, and the other to grab object contents with --batch.
However, if we had --batch-command, we wouldn't need to keep both
processes around, and instead just have one --batch-command process
where we can flip between getting object info, and getting object
contents. Since we have a pair of cat-file processes per repository,
this means we can get rid of roughly half of long lived git cat-file
processes. Given there are many repositories being accessed at any given
time, this can lead to huge savings.
git cat-file --batch-command
will enter an interactive command mode whereby the user can enter in
commands and their arguments that get queued in memory:
<command1> [arg1] [arg2] LF
<command2> [arg1] [arg2] LF
When --buffer mode is used, commands will be queued in memory until a
flush command is issued that execute them:
flush LF
The reason for a flush command is that when a consumer process (A)
talks to a git cat-file process (B) and interactively writes to and
reads from it in --buffer mode, (A) needs to be able to control when
the buffer is flushed to stdout.
Currently, from (A)'s perspective, the only way is to either
1. kill (B)'s process
2. send an invalid object to stdin.
1. is not ideal from a performance perspective as it will require
spawning a new cat-file process each time, and 2. is hacky and not a
good long term solution.
With this mechanism of queueing up commands and letting (A) issue a
flush command, process (A) can control when the buffer is flushed and
can guarantee it will receive all of the output when in --buffer mode.
--batch-command also will not allow (B) to flush to stdout until a flush
is received.
This patch adds the basic structure for adding command which can be
extended in the future to add more commands. It also adds the following
two commands (on top of the flush command):
contents <object> LF
info <object> LF
The contents command takes an <object> argument and prints out the object
contents.
The info command takes an <object> argument and prints out the object
metadata.
These can be used in the following way with --buffer:
info <object> LF
contents <object> LF
contents <object> LF
info <object> LF
flush LF
info <object> LF
flush LF
When used without --buffer:
info <object> LF
contents <object> LF
contents <object> LF
info <object> LF
info <object> LF

cat-file: add option '-Z' that delimits input and output with NUL
In db9d67f2e9 (builtin/cat-file.c: support NUL-delimited input with
`-z`, 2022-07-22), we have introduced a new mode to read the input via
NUL-delimited records instead of newline-delimited records. This allows
the user to query for revisions that have newlines in their path
component. While unusual, such queries are perfectly valid and thus it
is clear that we should be able to support them properly.
Unfortunately, the commit only changed the input to be NUL-delimited,
but didn't change the output at the same time. While this is fine for
queries that are processed successfully, it is less so for queries that
aren't. In the case of missing commits for example the result can become
entirely unparsable:
```
$ printf "7ce4f05bae8120d9fa258e854a8669f6ea9cb7b1 blob 10\n1234567890\n\n\commit000" |

7ce4f05bae8120d9fa258e854a8669f6ea9cb7b1 blob 10
1234567890
commit missing
```
This is of course a crafted query that is intentionally gaming the
deficiency, but more benign queries that contain newlines would have
similar problems.
Ideally, we should have also changed the output to be NUL-delimited when
`-z` is specified to avoid this problem. As the input is NUL-delimited,
it is clear that the output in this case cannot ever contain NUL
characters by itself. Furthermore, Git does not allow NUL characters in
revisions anyway, further stressing the point that using NUL-delimited
output is safe. The only exception is of course the object data itself,
but as git-cat-file(1) prints the size of the object data clients should
read until that specified size has been consumed.
But even though `-z` has only been introduced a few releases ago in Git
v2.38.0, changing the output format retroactively to also NUL-delimit
output would be a backwards incompatible change. And while one could
make the argument that the output is inherently broken already, we need
to assume that there are existing users out there that use it just fine
given that revisions containing newlines are quite exotic.
Instead, introduce a new option `-Z` that switches to NUL-delimited
input and output. While this new option could arguably only switch the
output format to be NUL-delimited, the consequence would be that users
have to always specify both `-z` and `-Z` when the input may contain
newlines. On the other hand, if the user knows that there never will be
newlines in the input, they don't have to use either of those options.
There is thus no usecase that would warrant treating input and output
format separately, which is why we instead opt to "do the right thing"
and have `-Z` mean to NUL-terminate both formats.
The old `-z` option is marked as deprecated with a hint that its output
may become unparsable. It is thus hidden both from the synopsis as well
as the command's help output.

Use OPT_CALLBACK and OPT_CALLBACK_F
In the codebase, there are many options which use OPTION_CALLBACK in a
plain ol' struct definition. However, we have the OPT_CALLBACK and
OPT_CALLBACK_F macros which are meant to abstract these plain struct
definitions away. These macros are useful as they semantically signal to
developers that these are just normal callback option with nothing fancy
happening.
Replace plain struct definitions of OPTION_CALLBACK with OPT_CALLBACK or
OPT_CALLBACK_F where applicable. The heavy lifting was done using the
following (disgusting) shell script:
#!/bin/sh
do_replacement () {
tr '\n' '\r' |
sed -e 's/{\s*OPTION_CALLBACK,\s*\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\s*0,\(\s*[^[:space:]}]*\)\s*}/OPT_CALLBACK(\1,\2,\3,\4,\5,\6)/g' |
sed -e 's/{\s*OPTION_CALLBACK,\s*\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\(\s*[^[:space:]}]*\)\s*}/OPT_CALLBACK_F(\1,\2,\3,\4,\5,\6,\7)/g' |
tr '\r' '\n'
}
for f in $(git ls-files \*.c)
do
do_replacement <"$f" >"$f.tmp"
mv "$f.tmp" "$f"
done
The result was manually inspected and then reformatted to match the
style of the surrounding code. Finally, using
`git grep OPTION_CALLBACK \*.c`, leftover results which were not handled
by the script were manually transformed.

cat-file: add option '-Z' that delimits input and output with NUL
In db9d67f2e9 (builtin/cat-file.c: support NUL-delimited input with
`-z`, 2022-07-22), we have introduced a new mode to read the input via
NUL-delimited records instead of newline-delimited records. This allows
the user to query for revisions that have newlines in their path
component. While unusual, such queries are perfectly valid and thus it
is clear that we should be able to support them properly.
Unfortunately, the commit only changed the input to be NUL-delimited,
but didn't change the output at the same time. While this is fine for
queries that are processed successfully, it is less so for queries that
aren't. In the case of missing commits for example the result can become
entirely unparsable:
```
$ printf "7ce4f05bae8120d9fa258e854a8669f6ea9cb7b1 blob 10\n1234567890\n\n\commit000" |
git cat-file --batch -z
7ce4f05bae8120d9fa258e854a8669f6ea9cb7b1 blob 10
1234567890
commit missing
```
This is of course a crafted query that is intentionally gaming the
deficiency, but more benign queries that contain newlines would have
similar problems.
Ideally, we should have also changed the output to be NUL-delimited when
`-z` is specified to avoid this problem. As the input is NUL-delimited,
it is clear that the output in this case cannot ever contain NUL
characters by itself. Furthermore, Git does not allow NUL characters in
revisions anyway, further stressing the point that using NUL-delimited
output is safe. The only exception is of course the object data itself,
but as git-cat-file(1) prints the size of the object data clients should
read until that specified size has been consumed.
But even though `-z` has only been introduced a few releases ago in Git
v2.38.0, changing the output format retroactively to also NUL-delimit
output would be a backwards incompatible change. And while one could
make the argument that the output is inherently broken already, we need
to assume that there are existing users out there that use it just fine
given that revisions containing newlines are quite exotic.
Instead, introduce a new option `-Z` that switches to NUL-delimited
input and output. While this new option could arguably only switch the
output format to be NUL-delimited, the consequence would be that users
have to always specify both `-z` and `-Z` when the input may contain
newlines. On the other hand, if the user knows that there never will be
newlines in the input, they don't have to use either of those options.
There is thus no usecase that would warrant treating input and output
format separately, which is why we instead opt to "do the right thing"
and have `-Z` mean to NUL-terminate both formats.
The old `-z` option is marked as deprecated with a hint that its output
may become unparsable. It is thus hidden both from the synopsis as well
as the command's help output.

cat-file: add --batch-command mode
Add a new flag --batch-command that accepts commands and arguments
from stdin, similar to git-update-ref --stdin.
At GitLab, we use a pair of long running cat-file processes when
accessing object content. One for iterating over object metadata with
--batch-check, and the other to grab object contents with --batch.
However, if we had --batch-command, we wouldn't need to keep both
processes around, and instead just have one --batch-command process
where we can flip between getting object info, and getting object
contents. Since we have a pair of cat-file processes per repository,
this means we can get rid of roughly half of long lived git cat-file
processes. Given there are many repositories being accessed at any given
time, this can lead to huge savings.
git cat-file --batch-command
will enter an interactive command mode whereby the user can enter in
commands and their arguments that get queued in memory:
<command1> [arg1] [arg2] LF
<command2> [arg1] [arg2] LF
When --buffer mode is used, commands will be queued in memory until a
flush command is issued that execute them:
flush LF
The reason for a flush command is that when a consumer process (A)
talks to a git cat-file process (B) and interactively writes to and
reads from it in --buffer mode, (A) needs to be able to control when
the buffer is flushed to stdout.
Currently, from (A)'s perspective, the only way is to either
1. kill (B)'s process
2. send an invalid object to stdin.
1. is not ideal from a performance perspective as it will require
spawning a new cat-file process each time, and 2. is hacky and not a
good long term solution.
With this mechanism of queueing up commands and letting (A) issue a
flush command, process (A) can control when the buffer is flushed and
can guarantee it will receive all of the output when in --buffer mode.
--batch-command also will not allow (B) to flush to stdout until a flush
is received.
This patch adds the basic structure for adding command which can be
extended in the future to add more commands. It also adds the following
two commands (on top of the flush command):
contents <object> LF
info <object> LF
The contents command takes an <object> argument and prints out the object
contents.
The info command takes an <object> argument and prints out the object
metadata.
These can be used in the following way with --buffer:
info <object> LF
contents <object> LF
contents <object> LF
info <object> LF
flush LF
info <object> LF
flush LF
When used without --buffer:
info <object> LF
contents <object> LF
contents <object> LF
info <object> LF
info <object> LF

cat-file: support "unordered" output for --batch-all-objects
If you're going to access the contents of every object in a
packfile, it's generally much more efficient to do so in
pack order, rather than in hash order. That increases the
locality of access within the packfile, which in turn is
friendlier to the delta base cache, since the packfile puts
related deltas next to each other. By contrast, hash order
is effectively random, since the sha1 has no discernible
relationship to the content.
This patch introduces an "--unordered" option to cat-file
which iterates over packs in pack-order under the hood. You
can see the results when dumping all of the file content:
$ time ./git cat-file --batch-all-objects --buffer --batch | wc -c
6883195596
real 0m44.491s
user 0m42.902s
sys 0m5.230s
$ time ./git cat-file --unordered \
--batch-all-objects --buffer --batch | wc -c
6883195596
real 0m6.075s
user 0m4.774s
sys 0m3.548s
Same output, different order, way faster. The same speed-up
applies even if you end up accessing the object content in a
different process, like:
git cat-file --batch-all-objects --buffer --batch-check |
grep blob |
git cat-file --batch='%(objectname) %(rest)' |
wc -c
Adding "--unordered" to the first command drops the runtime
in git.git from 24s to 3.5s.
Side note: there are actually further speedups available
for doing it all in-process now. Since we are outputting
the object content during the actual pack iteration, we
know where to find the object and could skip the extra
lookup done by oid_object_info(). This patch stops short
of that optimization since the underlying API isn't ready
for us to make those sorts of direct requests.
So if --unordered is so much better, why not make it the
default? Two reasons:
1. We've promised in the documentation that --batch-all-objects
outputs in hash order. Since cat-file is plumbing,
people may be relying on that default, and we can't
change it.
2. It's actually _slower_ for some cases. We have to
compute the pack revindex to walk in pack order. And
our de-duplication step uses an oidset, rather than a
sort-and-dedup, which can end up being more expensive.
If we're just accessing the type and size of each
object, for example, like:
git cat-file --batch-all-objects --buffer --batch-check
my best-of-five warm cache timings go from 900ms to
1100ms using --unordered. Though it's possible in a
cold-cache or under memory pressure that we could do
better, since we'd have better locality within the
packfile.
And one final question: why is it "--unordered" and not
"--pack-order"? The answer is again two-fold:
1. "pack order" isn't a well-defined thing across the
whole set of objects. We're hitting loose objects, as
well as objects in multiple packs, and the only
ordering we're promising is _within_ a single pack. The
rest is apparently random.
2. The point here is optimization. So we don't want to
promise any particular ordering, but only to say that
we will choose an ordering which is likely to be
efficient for accessing the object content. That leaves
the door open for further changes in the future without
having to add another compatibility option.

cat-file: default to --buffer when --batch-all-objects is used
Traditionally cat-file's batch-mode does not do any output
buffering. The reason is that a caller may have pipes
connected to its input and output, and would want to use
cat-file interactively, getting output immediately for each
input it sends.
This may involve a lot of small write() calls, which can be
slow. So we introduced --buffer to improve this, but we
can't turn it on by default, as it would break the
interactive case above.
However, when --batch-all-objects is used, we do not read
stdin at all. We generate the output ourselves as quickly as
possible, and then exit. In this case buffering is a strict
win, and it is simply a hassle for the user to have to
remember to specify --buffer.
This patch makes --buffer the default when --batch-all-objects
is used. Specifying "--buffer" manually is still OK, and you
can even override it with "--no-buffer" if you're a
masochist (or debugging).
For some real numbers, running:
git cat-file --batch-all-objects --batch-check='%(objectname)'
on torvalds/linux goes from:
real 0m1.464s
user 0m1.208s
sys 0m0.252s
to:
real 0m1.230s
user 0m1.172s
sys 0m0.056s
for a 16% speedup.

builtin/cat-file.c: support NUL-delimited input with `-z`
When callers are using `cat-file` via one of the stdin-driven `--batch`
modes, all input is newline-delimited. This presents a problem when
callers wish to ask about, e.g. tree-entries that have a newline
character present in their filename.
To support this niche scenario, introduce a new `-z` mode to the
`--batch`, `--batch-check`, and `--batch-command` suite of options that
instructs `cat-file` to treat its input as NUL-delimited, allowing the
individual commands themselves to have newlines present.
The refactoring here is slightly unfortunate, since we turn loops like:
while (strbuf_getline(&buf, stdin) != EOF)
into:
while (1) {
int ret;
if (opt->nul_terminated)
ret = strbuf_getline_nul(&input, stdin);
else
ret = strbuf_getline(&input, stdin);
if (ret == EOF)
break;
}
It's tempting to think that we could use `strbuf_getwholeline()` and
specify either `\n` or `\0` as the terminating character. But for input
on platforms that include a CR character preceeding the LF, this
wouldn't quite be the same, since `strbuf_getline(...)` will trim any
trailing CR, while `strbuf_getwholeline(&buf, stdin, '\n')` will not.
In the future, we could clean this up further by introducing a variant
of `strbuf_getwholeline()` that addresses the aforementioned gap, but
that approach felt too heavy-handed for this pair of uses.
Some tests are added in t1006 to ensure that `cat-file` produces the
same output in `--batch`, `--batch-check`, and `--batch-command` modes
with and without the new `-z` option.

cat-file: add option '-Z' that delimits input and output with NUL
In db9d67f2e9 (builtin/cat-file.c: support NUL-delimited input with
`-z`, 2022-07-22), we have introduced a new mode to read the input via
NUL-delimited records instead of newline-delimited records. This allows
the user to query for revisions that have newlines in their path
component. While unusual, such queries are perfectly valid and thus it
is clear that we should be able to support them properly.
Unfortunately, the commit only changed the input to be NUL-delimited,
but didn't change the output at the same time. While this is fine for
queries that are processed successfully, it is less so for queries that
aren't. In the case of missing commits for example the result can become
entirely unparsable:
```
$ printf "7ce4f05bae8120d9fa258e854a8669f6ea9cb7b1 blob 10\n1234567890\n\n\commit000" |
git cat-file --batch -z
7ce4f05bae8120d9fa258e854a8669f6ea9cb7b1 blob 10
1234567890
commit missing
```
This is of course a crafted query that is intentionally gaming the
deficiency, but more benign queries that contain newlines would have
similar problems.
Ideally, we should have also changed the output to be NUL-delimited when
`-z` is specified to avoid this problem. As the input is NUL-delimited,
it is clear that the output in this case cannot ever contain NUL
characters by itself. Furthermore, Git does not allow NUL characters in
revisions anyway, further stressing the point that using NUL-delimited
output is safe. The only exception is of course the object data itself,
but as git-cat-file(1) prints the size of the object data clients should
read until that specified size has been consumed.
But even though `-z` has only been introduced a few releases ago in Git
v2.38.0, changing the output format retroactively to also NUL-delimit
output would be a backwards incompatible change. And while one could
make the argument that the output is inherently broken already, we need
to assume that there are existing users out there that use it just fine
given that revisions containing newlines are quite exotic.
Instead, introduce a new option `-Z` that switches to NUL-delimited
input and output. While this new option could arguably only switch the
output format to be NUL-delimited, the consequence would be that users
have to always specify both `-z` and `-Z` when the input may contain
newlines. On the other hand, if the user knows that there never will be
newlines in the input, they don't have to use either of those options.
There is thus no usecase that would warrant treating input and output
format separately, which is why we instead opt to "do the right thing"
and have `-Z` mean to NUL-terminate both formats.
The old `-z` option is marked as deprecated with a hint that its output
may become unparsable. It is thus hidden both from the synopsis as well
as the command's help output.
