In the previous handful of commits, both 'git commit-graph write
--reachable' and '--stdin-commits' learned to peel tags down to the
commits which they refer to before passing them into the commit-graph
internals.
This makes the call to 'lookup_commit_reference_gently()' inside of
'fill_oids_from_commits()' a noop, since all OIDs are commits by that
point.
As such, remove the call entirely, as well as the progress meter, which
has been split and moved out to the callers in the aforementioned
earlier commits.

While iterating references (to discover the set of commits to write to
the commit-graph with 'git commit-graph write --reachable'),
'add_ref_to_set' can save 'fill_oids_from_commits()' some time by
peeling the references beforehand.
Move peeling out of 'fill_oids_from_commits()' and into
'add_ref_to_set()' to use 'peel_ref()' instead of 'deref_tag()'. Doing
so allows the commit-graph machinery to use the peeled value from
'$GIT_DIR/packed-refs' instead of having to load and parse tags.
While we're at it, discard non-commit objects reachable from ref tips.
This would be done automatically by 'fill_oids_from_commits()', but such
functionality will be removed in a subsequent patch after the call to
'lookup_commit_reference_gently' is dropped (at which point a non-commit
object in the commits oidset will become an error).

When 'git commit-graph write --reachable' is invoked, the commit-graph
machinery calls 'for_each_ref()' to discover the set of reachable
commits.
Right now the 'add_ref_to_set' callback is not doing anything other than
adding an OID to the set of known-reachable OIDs. In a subsequent
commit, 'add_ref_to_set' will presumptively peel references. This
operation should be fast for repositories with an up-to-date
'$GIT_DIR/packed-refs', but may be slow in the general case.
So that it doesn't appear that 'git commit-graph write' is idling with
'--reachable' in the slow case, add a progress meter to provide some
output in the meantime.
In general, we don't expect a progress meter to appear at all, since
peeling references with a 'packed-refs' file is quick. If it's slow and
we do show a progress meter, the subsequent 'fill_oids_from_commits()'
will be fast, since all of the calls to
'lookup_commit_reference_gently()' will be no-ops.
Both progress meters are delayed, so it is unlikely that more than one
will appear. In either case, this intermediate state will go away in a
handful of patches, at which point there will be at most one progress
meter.

When writing a layered commit-graph, the commit-graph machinery uses
'commit_graph_filenames_after' and 'commit_graph_hash_after' to keep
track of the layers in the chain that we are in the process of writing.
When the number of commit-graph layers shrinks, we initialize all
entries in the aforementioned arrays, because we know the structure of
the new commit-graph chain immediately (since there are no new layers,
there are no unknown hash values).
But when the number of commit-graph layers grows (i.e., that
'num_commit_graphs_after > num_commit_graphs_before'), then we leave
some entries in the filenames and hashes arrays as uninitialized,
because we will fill them in later as those values become available.
For instance, we rely on 'write_commit_graph_file's to store the
filename and hash of the last layer in the new chain, which is the one
that it is responsible for writing. But, it's possible that
'write_commit_graph_file' may fail, e.g., from file descriptor
exhaustion. In this case it is possible that 'git_mkstemp_mode' will
fail, and that function will return early *before* setting the values
for the last commit-graph layer's filename and hash.
This causes a number of upleasant side-effects. For instance, trying to
'free()' each entry in 'ctx->commit_graph_filenames_after' (and
similarly for the hashes array) causes us to 'free()' uninitialized
memory, since the area is allocated with 'malloc()' and is therefore
subject to contain garbage (which is left alone when
'write_commit_graph_file' returns early).
This can manifest in other issues, like a general protection fault,
and/or leaving a stray 'commit-graph-chain.lock' around after the
process dies. (The reasoning for this is still a mystery to me, since
we'd otherwise usually expect the kernel to run tempfile.c's 'atexit()'
handlers in the case of a normal death...)
To resolve this, initialize the memory with 'CALLOC_ARRAY' so that
uninitialized entries are filled with zeros, and can thus be 'free()'d
as a noop instead of causing a fault.

When writing a commit-graph layer, we do so in a temporary file which is
renamed into place. If we fail to create a temporary file, for e.g.,
because we have too many open files, then 'git_mkstemp_mode' sets the
pattern to the empty string, in which case we get an error something
along the lines of:
error: unable to create ''
It's not useful to show the pattern here at all, since we (1) know the

When operating on a stream of commit OIDs on stdin, 'git commit-graph
write' checks that each OID refers to an object that is indeed a commit.
This is convenient to make sure that the given input is well-formed, but
can sometimes be undesirable.
For example, server operators may wish to feed the refnames that were
updated during a push to 'git commit-graph write --input=stdin-commits',
and silently discard refs that don't point at commits. This can be done
by combing the output of 'git for-each-ref' with '--format
%(*objecttype)', but this requires opening up a potentially large number
of objects. Instead, it is more convenient to feed the updated refs to
the commit-graph machinery, and let it throw out refs that don't point
to commits.
Introduce '--[no-]check-oids' to make such a behavior possible. With
'--check-oids' (the default behavior to retain backwards compatibility),
'git commit-graph write' will barf on a non-commit line in its input.
With 'no-check-oids', such lines will be silently ignored, making the
above possible by specifying this option.
No matter which is supplied, 'git commit-graph write' retains the
behavior from the previous commit of rejecting non-OID inputs like
"HEAD" and "refs/heads/foo" as before.

The 'write_commit_graph()' function takes in either a string list of
pack indices, or a string list of hexadecimal commit OIDs. These
correspond to the '--stdin-packs' and '--stdin-commits' mode(s) from
'git commit-graph write'.
Using a string_list of hexadecimal commit IDs is not the most efficient
use of memory, since we can instead use the 'struct oidset', which is
more well-suited for this case.
This has another benefit which will become apparent in the following
commit. This is that we are about to disambiguate the kinds of errors we
produce with '--stdin-commits' into "non-hex input" and "hex-input, but
referring to a non-commit object". By having 'write_commit_graph' take
in a 'struct oidset *' of commits, we place the burden on the caller (in
this case, the builtin) to handle the first case, and the commit-graph
machinery can handle the second case.

When using split commit-graphs, it is sometimes useful to completely
replace the commit-graph chain with a new base.
For example, consider a scenario in which a repository builds a new
commit-graph incremental for each push. Occasionally (say, after some
fixed number of pushes), they may wish to rebuild the commit-graph chain
with all reachable commits.
They can do so with
$ git commit-graph write --reachable
but this removes the chain entirely and replaces it with a single
commit-graph in 'objects/info/commit-graph'. Unfortunately, this means
that the next push will have to move this commit-graph into the first
layer of a new chain, and then write its new commits on top.
Avoid such copying entirely by allowing the caller to specify that they
wish to replace the entirety of their commit-graph chain, while also
specifying that the new commit-graph should become the basis of a fresh,
length-one chain.
This addresses the above situation by making it possible for the caller
to instead write:
$ git commit-graph write --reachable --split=replace
which writes a new length-one chain to 'objects/info/commit-graphs',
making the commit-graph incremental generated by the subsequent push
relatively cheap by avoiding the aforementioned copy.
In order to do this, remove an assumption in 'write_commit_graph_file'
that chains are always at least two incrementals long.

In the previous commit, we laid the groundwork for supporting different
splitting strategies. In this commit, we introduce the first splitting
strategy: 'no-merge'.
Passing '--split=no-merge' is useful for callers which wish to write a
new incremental commit-graph, but do not want to spend effort condensing
the incremental chain [1]. Previously, this was possible by passing
'--size-multiple=0', but this no longer the case following 63020f175f
(commit-graph: prefer default size_mult when given zero, 2020-01-02).
When '--split=no-merge' is given, the commit-graph machinery will never
condense an existing chain, and it will always write a new incremental.
[1]: This might occur when, for example, a server administrator running
some program after each push may want to ensure that each job runs
proportional in time to the size of the push, and does not "jump" when
the commit-graph machinery decides to trigger a merge.

Add logic to
a) parse Bloom filter information from the commit graph file and,
b) re-use existing Bloom filters.
See Documentation/technical/commit-graph-format for the format in which
the Bloom filter information is written to the commit graph file.
To read Bloom filter for a given commit with lexicographic position
'i' we need to:
1. Read BIDX[i] which essentially gives us the starting index in BDAT for
filter of commit i+1. It is essentially the index past the end
of the filter of commit i. It is called end_index in the code.
2. For i>0, read BIDX[i-1] which will give us the starting index in BDAT
for filter of commit i. It is called the start_index in the code.
For the first commit, where i = 0, Bloom filter data starts at the
beginning, just past the header in the BDAT chunk. Hence, start_index
will be 0.
3. The length of the filter will be end_index - start_index, because
BIDX[i] gives the cumulative 8-byte words including the ith
commit's filter.
We toggle whether Bloom filters should be recomputed based on the
compute_if_not_present flag.

The commit-graph builtin has an --expire-time option that takes a
datetime using OPT_EXPIRY_DATE(). However, the implementation inside
expire_commit_graphs() was treating a non-zero value as a number of
seconds to subtract from "now".
Update t5323-split-commit-graph.sh to demonstrate the correct value
of the --expire-time option by actually creating a crud .graph file
with mtime earlier than the expire time. Instead of using a super-
early time (1980) we use an explicit, and recent, time. Using
test-tool chmtime to create two files on either end of an exact
second, we create a test that catches this failure no matter the
current time. Using a fixed date is more portable than trying to
format a relative date string into the --expiry-date input.
I noticed this when inspecting some Scalar repos that had an excess
number of commit-graph files. In Scalar, we were using this second
interpretation by using "--expire-time=3600" to mean "delete graphs
older than one hour ago" to avoid deleting a commit-graph that a
foreground process may be trying to load.
Also I noticed that the help text was copied from the --max-commits
option. Fix that help text.

Looking at the diff of commit objects in pack order is much faster than
in sha1 order, as it gives locality to the access of tree deltas
(whereas sha1 order is effectively random). Unfortunately the
commit-graph code sorts the commits (several times, sometimes as an oid
and sometimes a pointer-to-commit), and we ultimately traverse in sha1
order.
Instead, let's remember the position at which we see each commit, and
traverse in that order when looking at bloom filters. This drops my time
for "git commit-graph write --changed-paths" in linux.git from ~4
minutes to ~1.5 minutes.
Probably the "--reachable" code path would want something similar.
Or alternatively, we could use a different data structure (either a
hash, or maybe even just a bit in "struct commit") to keep track of
which oids we've seen, etc instead of sorting. And then we could keep
the original order.

As of the previous patch, all calls to 'commit-graph.c' functions which
perform path normalization (for e.g., 'get_commit_graph_filename()') are
of the form 'ctx->odb->path', which is always in normalized form.
Now that there are no callers passing non-normalized paths to these
functions, ensure that future callers are bound by the same restrictions
by making these functions take a 'struct object_directory *' instead of
a 'const char *'. To match, replace all calls with arguments of the form
'ctx->odb->path' with 'ctx->odb' To recover the path, functions that
perform path manipulation simply use 'odb->path'.
Further, avoid string comparisons with arguments of the form
'odb->path', and instead prefer raw pointer comparisons, which
accomplish the same effect, but are far less brittle.
This has a pleasant side-effect of making these functions much more
robust to paths that cannot be normalized by 'normalize_path_copy()',
i.e., because they are outside of the current working directory.
For example, prior to this patch, Valgrind reports that the following
uninitialized memory read [1]:
$ ( cd t && GIT_DIR=../.git valgrind git rev-parse HEAD^ )
because 'normalize_path_copy()' can't normalize '../.git' (since it's
relative to but above of the current working directory) [2].
By using a 'struct object_directory *' directly,
'get_commit_graph_filename()' does not need to normalize, because all
paths are relative to the current working directory since they are
always read from the '->path' of an object directory.
[1]: https://lore.kernel.org/git/20191027042116.GA5801@sigill.intra.peff.net.
[2]: The bug here is that 'get_commit_graph_filename()' returns the
result of 'normalize_path_copy()' without checking the return
value.

In a previous patch, the 'char *object_dir' in 'struct commit_graph' was
replaced with a 'struct object_directory'. This patch applies the same
treatment to 'struct commit_graph', which is another intermediate step
towards getting rid of all path normalization in 'commit-graph.c'.
Instead of taking a 'char *object_dir', functions that construct a
'struct commit_graph' now take a 'struct object_directory *'. Any code
that needs an object directory path use '->path' instead.
This ensures that all calls to functions that perform path normalization

There are lots of places in 'commit-graph.h' where a function either has
(or almost has) a full 'struct object_directory *', accesses '->path',
and then throws away the rest of the struct.
This can cause headaches when comparing the locations of object
directories across alternates (e.g., in the case of deciding if two
commit-graph layers can be merged). These paths are normalized with
'normalize_path_copy()' which mitigates some comparison issues, but not
all [1].
Replace usage of 'char *object_dir' with 'odb->path' by storing a
'struct object_directory *' in the 'write_commit_graph_context'
structure. This is an intermediate step towards getting rid of all path
normalization in 'commit-graph.c'.
Resolving a user-provided '--object-dir' argument now requires that we
compare it to the known alternates for equality. Prior to this patch,
an unknown '--object-dir' argument would silently exit with status zero.
This can clearly lead to unintended behavior, such as verifying
commit-graphs that aren't in a repository's own object store (or one of
its alternates), or causing a typo to mask a legitimate commit-graph
verification failure. Make this error non-silent by 'die()'-ing when the
given '--object-dir' does not match any known alternate object store.
[1]: In my testing, for example, I can get one side of the commit-graph
code to fill object_dir with "./objects" and the other with just
"objects".

commit-graph: prefer default size_mult when given zero
In 50f26bd ("fetch: add fetch.writeCommitGraph config setting",
2019-09-02), the fetch builtin added the capability to write a
commit-graph using the "--split" feature. This feature creates
multiple commit-graph files, and those can merge based on a set
of "split options" including a size multiple. The default size
multiple is 2, which intends to provide a log_2 N depth of the
commit-graph chain where N is the number of commits.
However, I noticed during dogfooding that my commit-graph chains
were becoming quite large when left only to builds by 'git fetch'.
It turns out that in split_graph_merge_strategy(), we default the
size_mult variable to 2 except we override it with the context's
split_opts if they exist. In builtin/fetch.c, we create such a
split_opts, but do not populate it with values.
This problem is due to two failures:
1. It is unclear that we can add the flag COMMIT_GRAPH_WRITE_SPLIT
with a NULL split_opts.
2. If we have a non-NULL split_opts, then we override the default
values even if a zero value is given.
Correct both of these issues. First, do not override size_mult when
the options provide a zero value. Second, stop creating a split_opts
in the fetch builtin.

If we can't parse a commit, then parse_commit() will return an error
code. But it _also_ sets the "parsed" flag, which tells us not to bother
trying to re-parse the object. That means that subsequent parses have no
idea that the information in the struct may be bogus. I.e., doing this:
parse_commit(commit);
...
if (parse_commit(commit) < 0)
die("commit is broken");
will never trigger the die(). The second parse_commit() will see the
"parsed" flag and quietly return success.
There are two obvious ways to fix this:
1. Stop setting "parsed" until we've successfully parsed.
2. Keep a second "corrupt" flag to indicate that we saw an error (and
when the parsed flag is set, return 0/-1 depending on the corrupt
flag).
This patch does option 1. The obvious downside versus option 2 is that
we might continually re-parse a broken object. But in practice,
corruption like this is rare, and we typically die() or return an error
in the caller. So it's OK not to worry about optimizing for corruption.
And it's much simpler: we don't need to use an extra bit in the object
struct, and callers which check the "parsed" flag don't need to learn
about the corrupt bit, too.
There's no new test here, because this case is already covered in t5318.
Note that we do need to update the expected message there, because we
now detect the problem in the return from "parse_commit()", and not with
a separate check for a NULL tree. In fact, we can now ditch that
explicit tree check entirely, as we're covered robustly by this change
(and the previous recent change to treat a NULL tree as a parse error).
We'll also give tags the same treatment. I don't know offhand of any
cases where the problem can be triggered (it implies somebody ignoring a
parse error earlier in the process), but consistently returning an error
should cause the least surprise.

The previous commit includes a failing test for an issue around
fetch.writeCommitGraph and fetching in a repo with a submodule. Here, we
fix that bug and set the test to "test_expect_success".
The problem arises with this set of commands when the remote repo at
<url> has a submodule. Note that --recurse-submodules is not needed to
demonstrate the bug.
$ git clone <url> test
$ cd test
$ git -c fetch.writeCommitGraph=true fetch origin
Computing commit graph generation numbers: 100% (12/12), done.
BUG: commit-graph.c:886: missing parent <hash1> for commit <hash2>
Aborted (core dumped)
As an initial fix, I converted the code in builtin/fetch.c that calls
write_commit_graph_reachable() to instead launch a "git commit-graph
write --reachable --split" process. That code worked, but is not how we
want the feature to work long-term.
That test did demonstrate that the issue must be something to do with
internal state of the 'git fetch' process.
The write_commit_graph() method in commit-graph.c ensures the commits we
plan to write are "closed under reachability" using close_reachable().
This method walks from the input commits, and uses the UNINTERESTING
flag to mark which commits have already been visited. This allows the
walk to take O(N) time, where N is the number of commits, instead of
O(P) time, where P is the number of paths. (The number of paths can be
exponential in the number of commits.)
However, the UNINTERESTING flag is used in lots of places in the
codebase. This flag usually means some barrier to stop a commit walk,
such as in revision-walking to compare histories. It is not often
cleared after the walk completes because the starting points of those
walks do not have the UNINTERESTING flag, and clear_commit_marks() would
stop immediately.
This is happening during a 'git fetch' call with a remote. The fetch
negotiation is comparing the remote refs with the local refs and marking
some commits as UNINTERESTING.
I tested running clear_commit_marks_many() to clear the UNINTERESTING
flag inside close_reachable(), but the tips did not have the flag, so
that did nothing.
It turns out that the calculate_changed_submodule_paths() method is at
fault. Thanks, Peff, for pointing out this detail! More specifically,
for each submodule, the collect_changed_submodules() runs a revision
walk to essentially do file-history on the list of submodules. That
revision walk marks commits UNININTERESTING if they are simplified away
by not changing the submodule.
Instead, I finally arrived on the conclusion that I should use a flag
that is not used in any other part of the code. In commit-reach.c, a
number of flags were defined for commit walk algorithms. The REACHABLE
flag seemed like it made the most sense, and it seems it was not
actually used in the file. The REACHABLE flag was used in early versions
of commit-reach.c, but was removed by 4fbcca4 (commit-reach: make
can_all_from_reach... linear, 2018-07-20).
Add the REACHABLE flag to commit-graph.c and use it instead of
UNINTERESTING in close_reachable(). This fixes the bug in manual
testing.

Miscellaneous code clean-ups.
* ah/cleanups:
git_mkstemps_mode(): replace magic numbers with computed value
wrapper: use a loop instead of repetitive statements
diffcore-break: use a goto instead of a redundant if statement
commit-graph: remove a duplicate assignment
The code to parse and use the commit-graph file has been made more
robust against corrupted input.
* tb/commit-graph-harden:
commit-graph.c: handle corrupt/missing trees
commit-graph.c: handle commit parsing errors
t/t5318: introduce failing 'git commit-graph write' tests
The "upload-pack" (the counterpart of "git fetch") needs to disable
commit-graph when responding to a shallow clone/fetch request, but
the way this was done made Git panic, which has been corrected.
* jk/disable-commit-graph-during-upload-pack:
upload-pack: disable commit graph more gently for shallow traversal
commit-graph: bump DIE_ON_LOAD check to actual load-time
A pair of small fixups to "git commit-graph" have been applied.
* jk/commit-graph-cleanup:
commit-graph: turn off save_commit_buffer
commit-graph: don't show progress percentages while expanding reachable commits
Leave the variable 'g' uninitialized before it is set just before its
first use in front of a loop, which is a much more appropriate place to
indicate what it is used for.
Also initialize the variable 'num_commits' just before the loop instead
of at the beginning of the function for the same reason.

Add --[no-]progress to git commit-graph write and verify.
The progress feature was introduced in 7b0f229
("commit-graph write: add progress output", 2018-09-17) but
the ability to opt-out was overlooked.

Let commit_list_count() count the number of parents instead of
duplicating it. Also store the result in an unsigned int, as that's
what the function returns, and the count is never negative.
