There's code in git_connect() that checks whether we are doing a push
with protocol_v2, and if so, drops us to protocol_v0 (since we know
how to do v2 only for fetches). But it misses some corner cases:
1. it checks the "prog" variable, which is actually the path to
receive-pack on the remote side. By default this is just
"git-receive-pack", but it could be an arbitrary string (like
"/path/to/git receive-pack", etc). We'd accidentally stay in v2
mode in this case.
2. besides "receive-pack" and "upload-pack", there's one other value
we'd expect: "upload-archive" for handling "git archive --remote".
Like receive-pack, this doesn't understand v2, and should use the
v0 protocol.
In practice, neither of these causes bugs in the real world so far. We
do send a "we understand v2" probe to the server, but since no server
implements v2 for anything but upload-pack, it's simply ignored. But
this would eventually become a problem if we do implement v2 for those
endpoints, as older clients would falsely claim to understand it,
leading to a server response they can't parse.
We can fix (1) by passing in both the program path and the "name" of the
operation. I treat the name as a string here, because that's the pattern
set in transport_connect(), which is one of our callers (we were simply
throwing away the "name" value there before).
We can fix (2) by allowing only known-v2 protocols ("upload-pack"),
rather than blocking unknown ones ("receive-pack" and "upload-archive").
That will mean whoever eventually implements v2 push will have to adjust
this list, but that's reasonable. We'll do the safe, conservative thing
(sticking to v0) by default, and anybody working on v2 will quickly
realize this spot needs to be updated.
The new tests cover the receive-pack and upload-archive cases above, and
re-confirm that we allow v2 with an arbitrary "--upload-pack" path (that
already worked before this patch, of course, but it would be an easy
thing to break if we flipped the allow/block logic without also handling
"name" separately).
Here are a few miscellaneous implementation notes, since I had to do a
little head-scratching to understand who calls what:
- transport_connect() is called only for git-upload-archive. For
non-http git remotes, that resolves to the virtual connect_git()
function (which then calls git_connect(); confused yet?). So
plumbing through "name" in connect_git() covers that.
- for regular fetches and pushes, callers use higher-level functions
like transport_fetch_refs(). For non-http git remotes, that means
calling git_connect() under the hood via connect_setup(). And that
uses the "for_push" flag to decide which name to use.
- likewise, plumbing like fetch-pack and send-pack may call
git_connect() directly; they each know which name to use.
- for remote helpers (including http), we already have separate
parameters for "name" and "exec" (another name for "prog"). In
process_connect_service(), we feed the "name" to the helper via
"connect" or "stateless-connect" directives.
There's also a "servpath" option, which can be used to tell the
helper about the "exec" path. But no helpers we implement support
it! For http it would be useless anyway (no reasonable server
implementation will allow you to send a shell command to run the
server). In theory it would be useful for more obscure helpers like
remote-ext, but even there it is not implemented.
It's tempting to get rid of it simply to reduce confusion, but we
have publicly documented it since it was added in fa8c097cc9
(Support remote helpers implementing smart transports, 2009-12-09),
so it's possible some helper in the wild is using it.
- So for v2, helpers (again, including http) are mainly used via
stateless-connect, driven by the main program. But they do still
need to decide whether to do a v2 probe. And so there's similar
logic in remote-curl.c's discover_refs() that looks for
"git-receive-pack". But it's not buggy in the same way. Since it
doesn't support servpath, it is always dealing with a "service"
string like "git-receive-pack". And since it doesn't support
straight "connect", it can't be used for "upload-archive".
So we could leave that spot alone. But I've updated it here to match
the logic we're changing in connect_git(). That seems like the least
confusing thing for somebody who has to touch both of these spots
later (say, to add v2 push support). I didn't add a new test to make
sure this doesn't break anything; we already have several tests (in
t5551 and elsewhere) that make sure we are using v2 over http.

We don't look at the "to_fetch" or "nr_heads" parameters at all. At
first glance this seems like a bug (or at least pessimisation), because
it means we fetch more objects from the bundle than we actually need.
But the bundle does not have any way of computing the set of reachable
objects itself (we'd have to pull all of the objects out to walk them).
And anyway, we've probably already paid most of the cost of grabbing the
objects, since we must copy the bundle locally before accessing it.
So it's perfectly reasonable for the bundle code to just pull everything
into the local object store. Unneeded objects can be dropped later via
gc, etc.
But we should mark these unused parameters as such to avoid the wrath of
-Wunused-parameter.

We have a generic "fill" function that is used by both the dumb http
push and fetch code paths. It takes a void parameter in case the caller
wants to pass along extra data, but (since the previous commit) neither
does so.
So we could simply drop the extra parameter. But since it's good
practice to provide a void pointer for in callback functions, we'll
leave it here for the future, and just annotate it as unused (to appease
-Wunused-parameter).
While we're marking it, let's also fix the type in http-walker's

There's some debugging code in mailmap.c which is only compiled if you
manually tweak the source to set DEBUG_MAILMAP. When it's not set, the
fallback noop uses static inline functions; we couldn't use macros here
because one of the functions is variadic (and variadic macros were
forbidden back then, but aren't now). As a result, this triggers
a -Wunused-parameter warning.
We have a few options here:
1. Leave it be. Just mark it as UNUSED, or switch to a variadic macro.
2. Assume the debugging code is useful, compile it always, and trigger
it with a run-time flag (e.g., with a trace key). This is pretty
easy to do, and carries a pretty small runtime cost.
3. Assume the debugging is not very useful, and just rip it out. This
matches what we did with a similar case in 69c5f17f11 (attr: drop
DEBUG_ATTR code, 2022-10-06).
The debugging flag has been mentioned only three times on the list.
Once, when it was added in 2009:
https://lore.kernel.org/git/cover.1234102794.git.marius@trolltech.com/
In 2013, when somebody fixed some compilation errors in the conditional
code (presumably because they used it while making other changes):
https://lore.kernel.org/git/1373871253-96480-1-git-send-email-sunshine@sunshineco.com/
And finally it seemed to have been useful to somebody in 2020:
https://lore.kernel.org/git/87eejswql6.fsf@evledraar.gmail.com/
So it's not totally without value. On the other hand, it's not likely to
be useful to non-developers (and certainly isn't if you have to
recompile). And using a debugger or adding your own inspection code is
likely to be as useful. So I've just dropped the code entirely here.
Note that we do still have to mark a few parameters unused in callback
functions which are passed to string_list_clear_func(). Those get an
extra pointer with the string being cleared, which we previously fed to
the debugging code.

When the prompt command mode was introduced in 1bfc51ac81 (Allow
__git_ps1 to be used in PROMPT_COMMAND, 2012-10-10), the assumption was
that it was necessary in order to properly add colors to PS1 in bash,
but this wasn't true.
It's true that the \[ \] markers add the information needed to properly
calculate the width of the prompt, and they have to be added directly to
PS1, a function returning them doesn't work.
But that is because bash coverts the \[ \] markers in PS1 to \001 \002,
which is what readline ultimately needs in order to calculate the width.
We don't need bash to do this conversion, we can use \001 \002
ourselves, and then the prompt command mode is not necessary to display
colors.
This is what functions returning colors are supposed to do [1].

When accepting a packfile in git-receive-pack(1), we feed that packfile
into git-index-pack(1) to generate the packfile index. As the packfile
would often only contain unreachable objects until the references have
been updated, concurrently running garbage collection might be tempted
to delete the packfile right away and thus cause corruption. To fix
this, we ask git-index-pack(1) to create a `.keep` file before moving
the packfile into place, which is getting deleted again once all of the
reference updates have been processed.
Now in production systems we have observed that those `.keep` files are
sometimes not getting deleted as expected, where the result is that
repositories tend to grow packfiles that are never deleted over time.
This seems to be caused by a race when git-receive-pack(1) is killed
after we have migrated the kept packfile from the quarantine directory
into the main object database. While this race window is typically small
it can be extended for example by installing a `proc-receive` hook.
Fix this race by registering the lockfile as a tempfile so that it will
automatically be removed at exit or when receiving a signal.

When an object is not found in a repository's object store, we sometimes
call reprepare_packed_git() to see if the object was temporarily moved
into a new pack-file (and its old pack-file or loose object was
deleted). This process does a scan of each pack directory within each
odb, but does not reevaluate if the odb list needs updating.
Extend reprepare_packed_git() to also reprepare the alternate odb list
by setting loaded_alternates to zero and calling prepare_alt_odb(). This
will add newly-discoverd odbs to the linked list, but will not duplicate
existing ones nor will it remove existing ones that are no longer listed
in the alternates file. Do this under the object read lock to avoid
readers from interacting with a potentially incomplete odb being added
to the odb list.
If the alternates file was edited to _remove_ some alternates during the
course of the Git process, Git will continue to see alternates that were
ever valid for that repository. ODBs are not removed from the list, the
same as the existing behavior before this change. Git already has
protections against an alternate directory disappearing from the
filesystem during the lifetime of a process, and those are still in
effect.
This change is specifically for concurrent changes to the repository, so
it is difficult to create a test that guarantees this behavior is
correct. I manually verified by introducing a reprepare_packed_git() call
into get_revision() and stepped into that call in a debugger with a
parent 'git log' process. Multiple runs of prepare_alt_odb() kept
the_repository->objects->odb as a single-item chain until I added a
.git/objects/info/alternates file in a different process. The next run
added the new odb to the chain and subsequent runs did not add to the
chain.

When we generate a diff with --cached, unmerged entries have no oid for
their index entry:
$ git diff-index --abbrev --cached HEAD
:100644 000000 f719efd 0000000 U my-conflict
So when we are asked to produce a patch, since we only have one side, we
just emit a special message:
$ git diff-index --cached -p HEAD
* Unmerged path my-conflict
This confuses interactive-patch modes that look at cached diffs. For
example:
$ git reset -p
BUG: add-patch.c:498: diff starts with unexpected line:
* Unmerged path my-conflict
Making things even more confusing, you'll get that error only if the
unmerged entry is alphabetically the first changed file. Otherwise, we
simply stick the unrecognized line to the end of the previous hunk.
There it's mostly harmless, as it eventually gets fed back to "git
apply", which happily ignores it. But it's still shown to the user
attached to the hunk, which is wrong.
So let's handle these lines as a noop. There's not really anything
useful to do with a conflicted merge in this case, and that's what we do
for other cases like "add -p". There we get a "diff --cc" line, which we
accept as starting a new file, but we refuse to use any of its hunks
(their headers start with "@@@" and not "@@ ", so we silently ignore
them).
It seems like simply recognizing the line and continuing in our parsing
loop would work. But we actually need to run the rest of the loop body
to handle matching up our colored/filtered output. But that code assumes
that we have some active file_diff we're working on. So instead, we'll
just insert a dummy entry into our array. This ends up the same as if we
saw a "diff --cc" line (a file with no hunks).

The previous commit dropped support for diff.noprefix in format-patch.
While this will do the right thing in most cases (where sending patches
without a prefix was an accidental side effect of the sender preferring
to see their local patches without prefixes), it left no good option for
a project or workflow where you really do want to send patches without
prefixes. You'd be stuck using "--no-prefix" for every invocation.
So let's add a config option specific to format-patch that enables this
behavior. That gives people who have such a workflow a way to get what
they want, but makes it hard to accidentally trigger it.
A more backwards-compatible way of doing the transition would be to have
format.noprefix default to diff.noprefix when it's not set. But that
doesn't really help the "accidental" problem; people would have to
manually set format.noprefix=false. And it's unlikely that anybody

interest in it.
