The 'dist' target uses a versioned temp directory, $(GIT_TARNAME), into
which it copies various files added to the distribution tarball. Should
it be necessary to remove this directory in the 'clean' target, since
the name depends on $(GIT_VERSION), the current HEAD must be positioned
on the same commit as when 'make dist' was issued. Otherwise, the target
will fail to remove that directory.
Create an '.dist-tmp-dir' directory and copy the various files into this
now un-versioned directory while creating the distribution tarball. Change

We normally get the list of builtin commands by expanding BUILTIN_OBJS.
But for commands which are embedded inside another's source file (e.g.,
cmd_show() in builtin/log.c), the Makefile needs to be told explicitly
about them.
Since cmd_maintenance() is inside buitin/gc.c, it should be listed
explicitly in the BUILT_INS list in the Makefile. Not doing so isn't
_too_ tragic, as it simply means we will not make a git-maintenance
symlink in libexec/git-core. Since we encourage people to use the "git

Add a new test-tool command named 'fast-rebase', which is a
super-slimmed down and nowhere near as capable version of 'git rebase'.
'test-tool fast-rebase' is not currently planned for usage in the
testsuite, but is here for two purposes:
1) Demonstrate the desired API of merge-ort. In particular,
fast-rebase takes advantage of the separation of the merging
operation from the updating of the index and working tree, to
allow it to pick N commits, but only update the index and working
tree once at the end. Look for the calls to
merge_incore_nonrecursive() and merge_switch_to_result().
2) Provide a convenient benchmark that isn't polluted by the heavy
disk writing and forking of unnecessary processes that comes from
sequencer.c and merge-recursive.c. fast-rebase is not meant to
replace sequencer.c, just give ideas on how sequencer.c can be
changed. Updating sequencer.c with these goals is probably a
large amount of work; writing a simple targeted command with
no documentation, less-than-useful help messages, numerous
limitations in terms of flags it can accept and situations it can
handle, and which is flagged off from users is a much easier
interim step.

There are a few differences between the new API in merge-ort and the old
API in merge-recursive. While the new API is more flexible, it might
feel like more work at times than the old API. merge-ort-wrappers
creates two convenience wrappers taking the exact same arguments as the
old merge_trees() and merge_recursive() functions and implements them
via the new API. This makes converting existing callsites easier, and
serves to highlight some of the differences in the API.

This is the beginning of a new merge strategy. While there are some API
differences, and the implementation has some differences in behavior, it
is essentially meant as an eventual drop-in replacement for
merge-recursive.c. However, it is being built to exist side-by-side
with merge-recursive so that we have plenty of time to find out how
those differences pan out in the real world while people can still fall
back to merge-recursive. (Also, I intend to avoid modifying
merge-recursive during this process, to keep it stable.)
The primary difference noticable here is that the updating of the
working tree and index is not done simultaneously with the merge
algorithm, but is a separate post-processing step. The new API is
designed so that one can do repeated merges (e.g. during a rebase or
cherry-pick) and only update the index and working tree one time at the
end instead of updating it with every intermediate result. Also, one
can perform a merge between two branches, neither of which match the
index or the working tree, without clobbering the index or working tree.
The next three commits will demonstrate various uses of this new API.

We set "use warnings" in most of our perl code to catch problems. But as
the name implies, warnings just emit a message to stderr and don't
otherwise affect the program. So our tests are quite likely to miss that
warnings are being spewed, as most of them do not look at stderr.
We could ask perl to make all warnings fatal, but this is likely
annoying for non-developers, who would rather have a running program
with a warning than something that refuses to work at all.
So instead, let's teach the perl code to respect an environment variable
(GIT_PERL_FATAL_WARNINGS) to increase the severity of the warnings. This
can be set for day-to-day running if people want to be really pedantic,
but the primary use is to trigger it within the test suite.
We could also trigger that for every test run, but likewise even the
tests failing may be annoying to distro builders, etc (just as -Werror
would be for compiling C code). So we'll tie it to a special test-mode
variable (GIT_TEST_PERL_FATAL_WARNINGS) that can be set in the
environment or as a Makefile knob, and we'll automatically turn the knob
when DEVELOPER=1 is set. That should give developers and CI the more
careful view without disrupting normal users or packagers.
Note that the mapping from the GIT_TEST_* form to the GIT_* form in
test-lib.sh is necessary even if they had the same name: the perl
scripts need it to be normalized to a perl truth value, and we also have
to make sure it's exported (we might have gotten it from the
environment, but we might also have gotten it from GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS
directly).

Add new subcommands to 'git maintenance' that start or stop background
maintenance using 'cron', when available. This integration is as simple
as I could make it, barring some implementation complications.
The schedule is laid out as follows:
0 1-23 * * * $cmd maintenance run --schedule=hourly
0 0 * * 1-6 $cmd maintenance run --schedule=daily
0 0 * * 0 $cmd maintenance run --schedule=weekly
where $cmd is a properly-qualified 'git for-each-repo' execution:
$cmd=$path/git --exec-path=$path for-each-repo --config=maintenance.repo
where $path points to the location of the Git executable running 'git
maintenance start'. This is critical for systems with multiple versions
of Git. Specifically, macOS has a system version at '/usr/bin/git' while
the version that users can install resides at '/usr/local/bin/git'
(symlinked to '/usr/local/libexec/git-core/git'). This will also use
your locally-built version if you build and run this in your development
environment without installing first.
This conditional schedule avoids having cron launch multiple 'git
for-each-repo' commands in parallel. Such parallel commands would likely
lead to the 'hourly' and 'daily' tasks competing over the object
database lock. This could lead to to some tasks never being run! Since
the --schedule=<frequency> argument will run all tasks with _at least_
the given frequency, the daily runs will also run the hourly tasks.
Similarly, the weekly runs will also run the daily and hourly tasks.
The GIT_TEST_CRONTAB environment variable is not intended for users to
edit, but instead as a way to mock the 'crontab [-l]' command. This
variable is set in test-lib.sh to avoid a future test from accidentally
running anything with the cron integration from modifying the user's
schedule. We use GIT_TEST_CRONTAB='test-tool crontab <file>' in our
tests to check how the schedule is modified in 'git maintenance
(start|stop)' commands.

Our put_be32() routine and its variants (get_be32(), put_be64(), etc)
has two implementations: on some platforms we cast memory in place and
use nothl()/htonl(), which can cause unaligned memory access. And on
others, we pick out the individual bytes using bitshifts.
This introduces extra complexity, and sometimes causes compilers to
generate warnings about type-punning. And it's not clear there's any
performance advantage.
This split goes back to 660231aa97 (block-sha1: support for
architectures with memory alignment restrictions, 2009-08-12). The
unaligned versions were part of the original block-sha1 code in
d7c208a92e (Add new optimized C 'block-sha1' routines, 2009-08-05),
which says it is:
Based on the mozilla SHA1 routine, but doing the input data accesses a
word at a time and with 'htonl()' instead of loading bytes and shifting.
Back then, Linus provided timings versus the mozilla code which showed a
27% improvement:
https://lore.kernel.org/git/alpine.LFD.2.01.0908051545000.3390@localhost.localdomain/
However, the unaligned loads were either not the useful part of that
speedup, or perhaps compilers and processors have changed since then.
Here are times for computing the sha1 of 4GB of random data, with and
without -DNO_UNALIGNED_LOADS (and BLK_SHA1=1, of course). This is with
gcc 10, -O2, and the processor is a Core i9-9880H.
[stock]
Benchmark #1: t/helper/test-tool sha1 <foo.rand
Time (mean ± σ): 6.638 s ± 0.081 s [User: 6.269 s, System: 0.368 s]
Range (min … max): 6.550 s … 6.841 s 10 runs
[-DNO_UNALIGNED_LOADS]
Benchmark #1: t/helper/test-tool sha1 <foo.rand

And here's the same test run on an AMD A8-7600, using gcc 8.
[stock]
Benchmark #1: t/helper/test-tool sha1 <foo.rand
Time (mean ± σ): 11.721 s ± 0.113 s [User: 10.761 s, System: 0.951 s]
Range (min … max): 11.509 s … 11.861 s 10 runs
[-DNO_UNALIGNED_LOADS]
Benchmark #1: t/helper/test-tool sha1 <foo.rand

Range (min … max): 11.637 s … 11.863 s 10 runs
So the unaligned loads don't seem to help much, and actually make things
worse. It's possible there are platforms where they provide more
benefit, but:
- the non-x86 platforms for which we use this code are old and obscure
(powerpc and s390).
- the main caller that cares about performance is block-sha1. But
these days it is rarely used anyway, in favor of sha1dc (which is
already much slower, and nobody seems to have cared that much).
Let's just drop unaligned versions entirely in the name of simplicity.

For a long time already, the non-dashed form of the built-ins is the
recommended way to write scripts, i.e. it is better to call `git merge
[...]` than to call `git-merge [...]`.
While Git still supports the dashed form (by hard-linking the `git`
executable to the dashed name in `libexec/git-core/`), in practice, it
is probably almost irrelevant.
However, we *do* care about keeping people's scripts working (even if
they were written before the non-dashed form started to be recommended).
Keeping this backwards-compatibility is not necessarily cheap, though:
even so much as amending the tip commit in a git.git checkout will
require re-linking all of those dashed commands. On this developer's
laptop, this makes a noticeable difference:

Also, `.zip` files do not have any standardized support for hard-links,
therefore "zipping up" the executables will result in inflated disk
usage. (To keep down the size of the "MinGit" variant of Git for
Windows, which is distributed as a `.zip` file, the hard-links are
excluded specifically.)
In addition to that, some programs that are regularly used to assess
disk usage fail to realize that those are hard-links, and heavily
overcount disk usage. Most notably, this was the case with Windows
Explorer up until the last couple of Windows 10 versions. See e.g.
https://github.com/msysgit/msysgit/issues/58.

Tools based on LibClang [1] can make use of a 'JSON Compilation
Database' [2] that keeps track of the exact options used to compile a set
of source files.
For example, clangd [3], which is a C language server protocol
implementation, can use a JSON compilation database to determine the
flags needed to compile a file so it can provide proper editor
integration. As a result, editors supporting the language server
protocol (such as VS Code, Emacs, or Vim, with suitable plugins) can
provide better searching, integration, and refactoring tools.
The Clang compiler can generate JSON fragments when compiling [4],
using the `-MJ` flag. These JSON fragments (one per compiled source
file) can then be concatenated to create the compilation database,
commonly called 'compile_commands.json'.
Add support to the Makefile for generating these JSON fragments as well
as the compilation database itself, if the environment variable
'GENERATE_COMPILATION_DATABASE' is set.
If this variable is set, check that $(CC) indeed supports the `-MJ`
flag, following what is done for automatic dependencies.
All JSON fragments are placed in the 'compile_commands/' directory, and
the compilation database 'compile_commands.json' is generated as a
dependency of the 'all' target using a `sed` invocation.

Updates to on-demand fetching code in lazily cloned repositories.
* jt/lazy-fetch:
fetch: no FETCH_HEAD display if --no-write-fetch-head
fetch-pack: remove no_dependents code
promisor-remote: lazy-fetch objects in subprocess
fetch-pack: do not lazy-fetch during ref iteration
fetch: only populate existing_refs if needed
fetch: avoid reading submodule config until needed
fetch: allow refspecs specified through stdin
negotiator/noop: add noop fetch negotiator
Git calls an internal `execute_commands` function to handle commands
sent from client to `git-receive-pack`. Regardless of what references
the user pushes, git creates or updates the corresponding references if
the user has write-permission. A contributor who has no
write-permission, cannot push to the repository directly. So, the
contributor has to write commits to an alternate location, and sends
pull request by emails or by other ways. We call this workflow as a
distributed workflow.
It would be more convenient to work in a centralized workflow like what
Gerrit provided for some cases. For example, a read-only user who
cannot push to a branch directly can run the following `git push`
command to push commits to a pseudo reference (has a prefix "refs/for/",
not "refs/heads/") to create a code review.
git push origin \
HEAD:refs/for/<branch-name>/<session>
The `<branch-name>` in the above example can be as simple as "master",
or a more complicated branch name like "foo/bar". The `<session>` in
the above example command can be the local branch name of the client
side, such as "my/topic".
We cannot implement a centralized workflow elegantly by using
"pre-receive" + "post-receive", because Git will call the internal
function "execute_commands" to create references (even the special
pseudo reference) between these two hooks. Even though we can delete
the temporarily created pseudo reference via the "post-receive" hook,
having a temporary reference is not safe for concurrent pushes.
So, add a filter and a new handler to support this kind of workflow.
The filter will check the prefix of the reference name, and if the
command has a special reference name, the filter will turn a specific
field (`run_proc_receive`) on for the command. Commands with this filed
turned on will be executed by a new handler (a hook named
"proc-receive") instead of the internal `execute_commands` function.
We can use this "proc-receive" command to create pull requests or send
emails for code review.
Suggested by Junio, this "proc-receive" hook reads the commands,
push-options (optional), and send result using a protocol in pkt-line
format. In the following example, the letter "S" stands for
"receive-pack" and letter "H" stands for the hook.
# Version and features negotiation.
S: PKT-LINE(version=1\0push-options atomic...)
S: flush-pkt
H: PKT-LINE(version=1\0push-options...)
H: flush-pkt
# Send commands from server to the hook.
S: PKT-LINE(<old-oid> <new-oid> <ref>)
S: ... ...
S: flush-pkt
# Send push-options only if the 'push-options' feature is enabled.
S: PKT-LINE(push-option)
S: ... ...
S: flush-pkt
# Receive result from the hook.
# OK, run this command successfully.
H: PKT-LINE(ok <ref>)
# NO, I reject it.
H: PKT-LINE(ng <ref> <reason>)
# Fall through, let 'receive-pack' to execute it.
H: PKT-LINE(ok <ref>)
H: PKT-LINE(option fall-through)
# OK, but has an alternate reference. The alternate reference name
# and other status can be given in options
H: PKT-LINE(ok <ref>)
H: PKT-LINE(option refname <refname>)
H: PKT-LINE(option old-oid <old-oid>)
H: PKT-LINE(option new-oid <new-oid>)
H: PKT-LINE(option forced-update)
H: ... ...
H: flush-pkt
After receiving a command, the hook will execute the command, and may
create/update different reference. For example, a command for a pseudo
reference "refs/for/master/topic" may create/update different reference
such as "refs/pull/123/head". The alternate reference name and other
status are given in option lines.
The list of commands returned from "proc-receive" will replace the
relevant commands that are sent from user to "receive-pack", and
"receive-pack" will continue to run the "execute_commands" function and
other routines. Finally, the result of the execution of these commands
will be reported to end user.
The reporting function from "receive-pack" to "send-pack" will be
extended in latter commit just like what the "proc-receive" hook reports
to "receive-pack".

Add a noop fetch negotiator. This is introduced to allow partial clones
to skip the unneeded negotiation step when fetching missing objects
using a "git fetch" subprocess. (The implementation of spawning a "git
fetch" subprocess will be done in a subsequent patch.) But this can also
be useful for end users, e.g. as a blunt fix for object corruption.

The code in vcs-svn was started in 2010 as an attempt to build a
remote-helper for interacting with svn repositories (as opposed to
git-svn). However, we never got as far as shipping a mature remote
helper, and the last substantive commit was e99d012a6b in 2012.
We do have a git-remote-testsvn, and it is even installed as part of
"make install". But given the name, it seems unlikely to be used by
anybody (you'd have to explicitly "git clone testsvn::$url", and there
have been zero mentions of that on the mailing list since 2013, and even
that includes the phrase "you might need to hack a bit to get it working
properly"[1]).
We also ship contrib/svn-fe, which builds on the vcs-svn work. However,
it does not seem to build out of the box for me, as the link step misses
some required libraries for using libgit.a. Curiously, the original
build breakage bisects for me to eff80a9fd9 (Allow custom "comment
char", 2013-01-16), which seems unrelated. There was an attempt to fix
it in da011cb0e7 (contrib/svn-fe: fix Makefile, 2014-08-28), but on my
system that only switches the error message.
So it seems like the result is not really usable by anybody in practice.
It would be wonderful if somebody wanted to pick up the topic again, and
potentially it's worth carrying around for that reason. But the flip
side is that people doing tree-wide operations have to deal with this
code. And you can see the list with (replace "HEAD" with this commit as
appropriate):
{
echo "--"
git diff-tree --diff-filter=D -r --name-only HEAD^ HEAD
} |
git log --no-merges --oneline e99d012a6bc.. --stdin
which shows 58 times somebody had to deal with the code, generally due
to a compile or test failure, or a tree-wide style fix or API change.
Let's drop it and let anybody who wants to pick it up do so by
resurrecting it from the git history.
As a bonus, this also reduces the size of a stripped installation of Git
from 21MB to 19MB.

There's no reason that git-fast-import benefits from being a separate
binary. And as it links against libgit.a, it has a non-trivial disk
footprint. Let's make it a builtin, which reduces the size of a stripped
installation from 22MB to 21MB.
