Sergey Organov 572fc9aa54 revision: add separate field for "-m" of "diff-index -m"
Add separate 'match_missing' field for diff-index to use and set it when we
encounter "-m" option. This field won't then be cleared when another meaning of
"-m" is reverted (e.g., by "--no-diff-merges"), nor it will be affected by
future option(s) that might drive 'ignore_merges' field.

Use this new field from diff-lib:do_oneway_diff() instead of reusing
'ignore_merges' field.

Eric Sunshine 59d876ccd6 init: make --separate-git-dir work from within linked worktree
The intention of `git init --separate-work-dir=<path>` is to move the
.git/ directory to a location outside of the main worktree. When used
within a linked worktree, however, rather than moving the .git/
directory as intended, it instead incorrectly moves the worktree's
.git/worktrees/<id> directory to <path>, thus disconnecting the linked
worktree from its parent repository and breaking the worktree in the
process since its local .git file no longer points at a location at
which it can find the object database. Fix this broken behavior.

An intentional side-effect of this change is that it also closes a
loophole not caught by ccf236a23a (init: disallow --separate-git-dir
with bare repository, 2020-08-09) in which the check to prevent
--separate-git-dir being used in conjunction with a bare repository was
unable to detect the invalid combination when invoked from within a
linked worktree. Therefore, add a test to verify that this loophole is
closed, as well.

Eric Sunshine 42264bc841 init: teach --separate-git-dir to repair linked worktrees
A linked worktree's .git file is a "gitfile" pointing at the
.git/worktrees/<id> directory within the repository. When `git init
--separate-git-dir=<path>` is used on an existing repository to relocate
the repository's .git/ directory to a different location, it neglects to
update the .git files of linked worktrees, thus breaking the worktrees
by making it impossible for them to locate the repository. Fix this by
teaching --separate-git-dir to repair the .git file of each linked
worktree to point at the new repository location.

Eric Sunshine b214ab5aa5 worktree: teach "repair" to fix outgoing links to worktrees
The .git/worktrees/<id>/gitdir file points at the location of a linked
worktree's .git file. Its content must be of the form
/path/to/worktree/.git (from which the location of the worktree itself
can be derived by stripping the "/.git" suffix). If the gitdir file is
deleted or becomes corrupted or outdated, then Git will be unable to
find the linked worktree. An easy way for the gitdir file to become
outdated is for the user to move the worktree manually (without using
"git worktree move"). Although it is possible to manually update the
gitdir file to reflect the new linked worktree location, doing so
requires a level of knowledge about worktree internals beyond what a
user should be expected to know offhand.

Therefore, teach "git worktree repair" how to repair broken or outdated
.git/worktrees/<id>/gitdir files automatically. (For this to work, the
command must either be invoked from within the worktree whose gitdir
file requires repair, or from within the main or any linked worktree by
providing the path of the broken worktree as an argument to "git
worktree repair".)

Eric Sunshine bdd1f3e4da worktree: teach "repair" to fix worktree back-links to main worktree
The .git file in a linked worktree is a "gitfile" which points back to
the .git/worktrees/<id> entry in the main worktree or bare repository.
If a worktree's .git file is deleted or becomes corrupted or outdated,
then the linked worktree won't know how to find the repository or any of
its own administrative files (such as 'index', 'HEAD', etc.). An easy
way for the .git file to become outdated is for the user to move the
main worktree or bare repository. Although it is possible to manually
update each linked worktree's .git file to reflect the new repository
location, doing so requires a level of knowledge about worktree
internals beyond what a user should be expected to know offhand.

Therefore, teach "git worktree repair" how to repair broken or outdated
worktree .git files automatically. (For this to work, the command must
be invoked from within the main worktree or bare repository, or from
within a worktree which has not become disconnected from the repository
-- such as one which was created after the repository was moved.)

Taylor Blau 59552fb3e2 midx: traverse the local MIDX first
When a repository has an alternate object directory configured, callers
can traverse through each alternate's MIDX by walking the '->next'
pointer.

But, when 'prepare_multi_pack_index_one()' loads multiple MIDXs, it
places the new ones at the front of this pointer chain, not at the end.
This can be confusing for callers such as 'git repack -ad', causing test
failures like in t7700.6 with 'GIT_TEST_MULTI_PACK_INDEX=1'.

The occurs when dropping a pack known to the local MIDX with alternates
configured that have their own MIDX. Since the alternate's MIDX is
returned via 'get_multi_pack_index()', 'midx_contains_pack()' returns
true (which is correct, since it traverses through the '->next' pointer
to find the MIDX in the chain that does contain the requested object).
But, we call 'clear_midx_file()' on 'the_repository', which drops the
MIDX at the path of the first MIDX in the chain, which (in the case of
t7700.6 is the one in the alternate).

This patch addresses that by:

  - placing the local MIDX first in the chain when calling
    'prepare_multi_pack_index_one()', and

  - introducing a new 'get_local_multi_pack_index()', which explicitly
    returns the repository-local MIDX, if any.

Don't impose an additional order on the MIDX's '->next' pointer beyond
that the first item in the chain must be local if one exists so that we
avoid a quadratic insertion.

Likewise, use 'get_local_multi_pack_index()' in
'remove_redundant_pack()' to fix the formerly broken t7700.6 when run
with 'GIT_TEST_MULTI_PACK_INDEX=1'.

Finally, note that the MIDX ordering invariant is only preserved by the
insertion order in 'prepare_packed_git()', which traverses through the
ODB's '->next' pointer, meaning we visit the local object store first.
This fragility makes this an undesirable long-term solution if more
callers are added, but it is acceptable for now since this is the only
caller.

Hariom Verma 47d4676ac8 pretty: refactor format_sanitized_subject()
The function 'format_sanitized_subject()' is responsible for
sanitized subject line in pretty.c
e.g.
the subject line
the-sanitized-subject-line

It would be a nice enhancement to `subject` atom to have the
same feature. So in the later commits, we plan to add this feature
to ref-filter.

Refactor `format_sanitized_subject()`, so it can be reused in
ref-filter.c for adding new modifier `sanitize` to "subject" atom.

Currently, the loop inside `format_sanitized_subject()` runs
until `\n` is found. But now, we stored the first occurrence
of `\n` in a variable `eol` and passed it in
`format_sanitized_subject()`. And the loop runs upto `eol`.

Shourya Shukla d79b145569 t7421: eliminate 'grep' check in t7421.4 for mingw compatibility
The 'grep' check in test 4 of t7421 resulted in the failure of t7421 on
Windows due to a different error message

    error: cannot spawn git: No such file or directory

instead of

    fatal: exec 'rev-parse': cd to 'my-subm' failed: No such file or directory

Tighten up the check to compute 'src_abbrev' by guarding the
'verify_submodule_committish()' call using `p->status !='D'`, so that
the former isn't called in case of non-existent submodule directory,
consequently, there is no such error message on any execution
environment. The same need not be implemented for 'dst_abbrev' and is
rather redundant since the conditional 'if (S_ISGITLINK(p->mod_dst))'
already guards the 'verify_submodule_committish()' when we have a
status of 'D'.

Therefore, eliminate the 'grep' check in t7421. Instead, verify the
absence of an error message by doing a 'test_must_be_empty' on the
file containing the error.

Eric Sunshine e8e1ff24c5 worktree: add skeleton "repair" command
Worktree administrative files can become corrupted or outdated due to
external factors. Although, it is often possible to recover from such
situations by hand-tweaking these files, doing so requires intimate
knowledge of worktree internals. While information necessary to make
such repairs manually can be obtained from git-worktree.txt and
gitrepository-layout.txt, we can assist users more directly by teaching
git-worktree how to repair its administrative files itself (at least to
some extent). Therefore, add a "git worktree repair" command which
attempts to correct common problems which may arise due to factors
beyond Git's control.

At this stage, the "repair" command is a mere skeleton; subsequent
commits will flesh out the functionality.

Sergey Organov ee22a29215 pretty-options.txt: fix --no-abbrev-commit description
Description suggested --no-abbrev-commit negates --oneline as well as any other
option that implies --abbrev-commit. Fix it to say that it's --abbrev-commit
that is negated, not the option that implies it.

Junio C Hamano c0e190c168 credential-cache: use child_process.args
As child_process structure has an embedded strvec args for
formulating the command line, let's use it instead of using
an out-of-line argv[] whose length needs to be maintained
correctly.

Also, when spawning a git subcommand, omit it from the command list
and instead use the .git_cmd bit in the child_process structure.

Jeff King 27ed6ccc12 worktree: fix leak in check_clean_worktree()
We allocate a child_env strvec but never free its memory. Instead, let's
just use the strvec that our child_process struct provides, which is
cleaned up automatically when we run the command.

And while we're moving the initialization of the child_process around,
let's switch it to use the official init function (zero-initializing it
works OK, since strvec is happy enough with that, but it sets a bad
example).

Junio C Hamano afbdba391e run_command: teach API users to use embedded 'args' more
The child_process structure has an embedded strvec for formulating
the command line argument list these days, but code that predates
the wide use of it prepared a separate char *argv[] array and
manually set the child_process.argv pointer point at it.

Teach these old-style code to lose the separate argv[] array.

Taylor Blau e08f7bb093 builtin/repack.c: invalidate MIDX only when necessary
In 525e18c04b (midx: clear midx on repack, 2018-07-12), 'git repack'
learned to remove a multi-pack-index file if it added or removed a pack
from the object store.

This mechanism is a little over-eager, since it is only necessary to
drop a MIDX if 'git repack' removes a pack that the MIDX references.
Adding a pack outside of the MIDX does not require invalidating the
MIDX, and likewise for removing a pack the MIDX does not know about.

Teach 'git repack' to check for this by loading the MIDX, and checking
whether the to-be-removed pack is known to the MIDX. This requires a
slightly odd alternation to a test in t5319, which is explained with a
comment. A new test is added to show that the MIDX is left alone when
both packs known to it are marked as .keep, but two packs unknown to it
are removed and combined into one new pack.

Jeff King 04a0e98515 revision: set rev_input_given in handle_revision_arg()
Commit 7ba826290a (revision: add rev_input_given flag, 2017-08-02) added
a flag to rev_info to tell whether we got any revision arguments. As
explained there, this is necessary because some revision arguments may
not produce any pending traversal objects, but should still inhibit
default behaviors (e.g., a glob that matches nothing).

However, it only set the flag in the globbing code, but not for
revisions we get on the command-line or via stdin. This leads to two
problems:

  - the command-line code keeps its own separate got_rev_arg flag; this
    isn't wrong, but it's confusing and an extra maintenance burden

  - even specifically-named rev arguments might end up not adding any
    pending objects: if --ignore-missing is set, then specifying a
    missing object is a noop rather than an error.

And that leads to some user-visible bugs:

  - when deciding whether a default rev like "HEAD" should kick in, we
    check both got_rev_arg and rev_input_given. That means that
    "--ignore-missing $ZERO_OID" works on the command-line (where we set
    got_rev_arg) but not on --stdin (where we don't)

  - when rev-list decides whether it should complain that it wasn't
    given a starting point, it relies on rev_input_given. So it can't
    even get the command-line "--ignore-missing $ZERO_OID" right

Let's consistently set the flag if we got any revision argument. That
lets us clean up the redundant got_rev_arg, and fixes both of those bugs
(but note there are three new tests: we'll confirm the already working
git-log command-line case).

A few implementation notes:

  - conceptually we want to set the flag whenever handle_revision_arg()
    finds an actual revision arg ("handles" it, you might say). But it
    covers a ton of cases with early returns. Rather than annotating
    each one, we just wrap it and use its success exit-code to set the
    flag in one spot.

  - the new rev-list test is in t6018, which is titled to cover globs.
    This isn't exactly a glob, but it made sense to stick it with the
    other tests that handle the "even though we got a rev, we have no
    pending objects" case, which are globs.

  - the tests check for the oid of a missing object, which it's pretty
    clear --ignore-missing should ignore. You can see the same behavior
    with "--ignore-missing a-ref-that-does-not-exist", because
    --ignore-missing treats them both the same. That's perhaps less
    clearly correct, and we may want to change that in the future. But
    the way the code and tests here are written, we'd continue to do the
    right thing even if it does.

Patrick Steinhardt 0a0fbbe3ff refs: remove lookup cache for reference-transaction hook
When adding the reference-transaction hook, there were concerns about
the performance impact it may have on setups which do not make use of
the new hook at all. After all, it gets executed every time a reftx is
prepared, committed or aborted, which linearly scales with the number of
reference-transactions created per session. And as there are code paths
like `git push` which create a new transaction for each reference to be
updated, this may translate to calling `find_hook()` quite a lot.

To address this concern, a cache was added with the intention to not
repeatedly do negative hook lookups. Turns out this cache caused a
regression, which was fixed via e5256c82e5 (refs: fix interleaving hook
calls with reference-transaction hook, 2020-08-07). In the process of
discussing the fix, we realized that the cache doesn't really help even
in the negative-lookup case. While performance tests added to benchmark
this did show a slight improvement in the 1% range, this really doesn't
warrent having a cache. Furthermore, it's quite flaky, too. E.g. running
it twice in succession produces the following results:

Test                         master            pks-reftx-hook-remove-cache
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
1400.2: update-ref           2.79(2.16+0.74)   2.73(2.12+0.71) -2.2%
1400.3: update-ref --stdin   0.22(0.08+0.14)   0.21(0.08+0.12) -4.5%

Test                         master            pks-reftx-hook-remove-cache
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
1400.2: update-ref           2.70(2.09+0.72)   2.74(2.13+0.71) +1.5%
1400.3: update-ref --stdin   0.21(0.10+0.10)   0.21(0.08+0.13) +0.0%

One case notably absent from those benchmarks is a single executable
searching for the hook hundreds of times, which is exactly the case for
which the negative cache was added. p1400.2 will spawn a new update-ref
for each transaction and p1400.3 only has a single reference-transaction
for all reference updates. So this commit adds a third benchmark, which
performs an non-atomic push of a thousand references. This will create a
new reference transaction per reference. But even for this case, the
negative cache doesn't consistently improve performance:

Test                         master            pks-reftx-hook-remove-cache
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
1400.4: nonatomic push       6.63(6.50+0.13)   6.81(6.67+0.14) +2.7%
1400.4: nonatomic push       6.35(6.21+0.14)   6.39(6.23+0.16) +0.6%
1400.4: nonatomic push       6.43(6.31+0.13)   6.42(6.28+0.15) -0.2%

So let's just remove the cache altogether to simplify the code.
