If an error occurs during an atomic fetch, a redundant error message
will appear at the end of do_fetch(). It was introduced in b3a804663c
(fetch: make `--atomic` flag cover backfilling of tags, 2022-02-17).
Because a failure message is displayed before setting retcode in the
function do_fetch(), calling error() on the err message at the end of
this function may result in redundant or empty error message to be
displayed.
We can remove the redundant error() function, because we know that
the function ref_transaction_abort() never fails. While we can find a
common pattern for calling ref_transaction_abort() by running command
"git grep -A1 ref_transaction_abort", e.g.:
if (ref_transaction_abort(transaction, &error))
error("abort: %s", error.buf);
Following this pattern, we can tolerate the return value of the function
ref_transaction_abort() being changed in the future. We also delay the
output of the err message to the end of do_fetch() to reduce redundant
code. With these changes, the test case "fetch porcelain output
(atomic)" in t5574 will also be fixed.

In e704fc7978 (pack-objects: introduce pack.allowPackReuse, 2019-12-18),
the `pack.allowPackReuse` configuration option was introduced, allowing
users to disable the pack reuse mechanism.
To prepare for debugging multi-pack reuse, allow setting configuration
to "single" in addition to the usual bool-or-int values.
"single" implies the same behavior as "true", "1", "yes", and so on. But
it will complement a new "multi" value (to be introduced in a future
commit). When set to "single", we will only perform pack reuse on a
single pack, regardless of whether or not there are multiple MIDX'd
packs.

The function `write_reused_pack_verbatim()` within
`builtin/pack-objects.c` is responsible for writing out a continuous
set of objects beginning at the start of the reuse packfile.
In the existing implementation, we did something like:
while (pos < reuse_packfile_bitmap->word_alloc &&
reuse_packfile_bitmap->words[pos] == (eword_t)~0)
pos++;
if (pos)
/* write first `pos * BITS_IN_WORD` objects from pack */
as an optimization to record a single chunk for the longest continuous
prefix of objects wanted out of the reuse pack, instead of having a
chunk for each individual object. For more details, see bb514de356
(pack-objects: improve partial packfile reuse, 2019-12-18).
In order to retain this optimization in a multi-pack reuse world, we can
no longer assume that the first object in a pack is on a word boundary
in the bitmap storing the set of reusable objects.
Assuming that all objects from the beginning of the reuse packfile up to
the object corresponding to the first bit on a word boundary are part of
the result, consume whole words at a time until the last whole word
belonging to the reuse packfile. Copy those objects to the resulting
packfile, and track that we reused them by recording a single chunk.

The function `write_reused_pack()` within `builtin/pack-objects.c` is
responsible for performing pack-reuse on a single pack, and has two main
functions:
- it dispatches a call to `write_reused_pack_verbatim()` to see if we
can reuse portions of the packfile in whole-word chunks
- for any remaining objects (that is, any objects that appear after
the first "gap" in the bitmap), call write_reused_pack_one() on that
object to record it for reuse.
Prepare this function for multi-pack reuse by removing the assumption
that the bit position corresponding to the first object being reused
from a given pack must be at bit position zero.
The changes in this function are mostly straightforward. Initialize `i`
to the position of the first word to contain bits corresponding to that
reuse pack. In most situations, we throw the initialized value away,
since we end up replacing it with the return value from
write_reused_pack_verbatim(), moving us past the section of whole words
that we reused.
Likewise, modify the per-object loop to ignore any bits at the beginning
of the first word that do not belong to the pack currently being reused,
as well as skip to the "done" section once we have processed the last
bit corresponding to this pack.

Further prepare pack-objects to perform verbatim pack-reuse over
multiple packfiles by converting functions that take in a pointer to a
`struct packed_git` to instead take in a pointer to a `struct
bitmapped_pack`.
The additional information found in the bitmapped_pack struct (such as
the bit position corresponding to the beginning of the pack) will be
necessary in order to perform verbatim pack-reuse.
Note that we don't use any of the extra pieces of information contained
in the bitmapped_pack struct, so this step is merely preparatory and
does not introduce any functional changes.
Note further that we do not change the argument type to
write_reused_pack_one(). That function is responsible for copying
sections of the packfile directly and optionally patching any OFS_DELTAs
to account for not reusing sections of the packfile in between a delta
and its base.
As such, that function is (and should remain) oblivious to multi-pack
reuse, and does not require any of the extra pieces of information
stored in the bitmapped_pack struct.

When reusing objects from a pack, we keep track of a set of one or more
`reused_chunk`s, corresponding to sections of one or more object(s) from
a source pack that we are reusing. Each chunk contains two pieces of
information:
- the offset of the first object in the source pack (relative to the
beginning of the source pack)
- the difference between that offset, and the corresponding offset in
the pack we're generating
The purpose of keeping track of these is so that we can patch an
OFS_DELTAs that cross over a section of the reuse pack that we didn't
take.
For instance, consider a hypothetical pack as shown below:
(chunk #2)
__________...
/
/
+--------+---------+-------------------+---------+
... | <base> | <other> | (unused) | <delta> | ...
+--------+---------+-------------------+---------+
\ /
\______________/
(chunk #1)
Suppose that we are sending objects "base", "other", and "delta", and
that the "delta" object is stored as an OFS_DELTA, and that its base is
"base". If we don't send any objects in the "(unused)" range, we can't
copy the delta'd object directly, since its delta offset includes a
range of the pack that we didn't copy, so we have to account for that
difference when patching and reassembling the delta.
In order to compute this value correctly, we need to know not only where
we are in the packfile we're assembling (with `hashfile_total(f)`) but
also the position of the first byte of the packfile that we are
currently reusing. Currently, this works just fine, since when reusing
only a single pack those two values are always identical (because
verbatim reuse is the first thing pack-objects does when enabled after
writing the pack header).
But when reusing multiple packs which have one or more gaps, we'll need
to account for these two values diverging.
Together, these two allow us to compute the reused chunk's offset
difference relative to the start of the reused pack, as desired.

The routines pack-objects uses to perform verbatim pack-reuse are:
- write_reused_pack_one()
- write_reused_pack_verbatim()
- write_reused_pack()
, all of which assume that there is exactly one packfile being reused:
the global constant `reuse_packfile`.
Prepare for reusing objects from multiple packs by making reuse packfile
a parameter of each of the above functions in preparation for calling
these functions in a loop with multiple packfiles.
Note that we still have the global "reuse_packfile", but pass it through
each of the above function's parameter lists, eliminating all but one
direct access (the top-level caller in `write_pack_file()`). Even after
this series, we will still have a global, but it will hold the array of
reusable packfiles, and we'll pass them one at a time to these functions
in a loop.
Note also that we will eventually need to pass a `bitmapped_pack`
instead of a `packed_git` in order to hold onto additional information
required for reuse (such as the bit position of the first object
belonging to that pack). But that change will be made in a future commit

Since the array we're filling out is sized dynamically[^1], add an

Note that since we still have not implemented true multi-pack reuse,
these changes aren't propagated out to the rest of the caller in

In the interim state, we expect that the array has a single element, and

(which is a bog-standard `struct packed_git *`). Future commits will
continue to push this change further out through the pack-objects code.

The signature of `reuse_partial_packfile_from_bitmap()` currently takes
in a bitmap, as well as three output parameters (filled through
pointers, and passed as arguments), and also returns an integer result.
The output parameters are filled out with: (a) the packfile used for
pack-reuse, (b) the number of objects from that pack that we can reuse,
and (c) a bitmap indicating which objects we can reuse. The return value
is either -1 (when there are no objects to reuse), or 0 (when there is
at least one object to reuse).
Some of these parameters are redundant. Notably, we can infer from the
bitmap how many objects are reused by calling bitmap_popcount(). And we
can similar compute the return value based on that number as well.
As such, clean up the signature of this function to drop the "*entries"
parameter, as well as the int return value, since the single caller of
this function can infer these values themself.

We're currently creating the reference database with a potentially
incorrect object format when the remote repository's object format is
different from the local default object format. This works just fine for
now because the files backend never records the object format anywhere.
But this logic will fail with any new reference backend that encodes
this information in some form either on-disk or in-memory.
The preceding commits have reshuffled code in git-clone(1) so that there
is no code path that will access the reference database before we have
detected the remote's object format. With these refactorings we can now
defer initialization of the reference database until after we have
learned the remote's object format and thus initialize it with the
correct format from the get-go.
These refactorings are required to make git-clone(1) work with the
upcoming reftable backend when cloning repositories with the SHA256
object format.
This change breaks a test in "t5550-http-fetch-dumb.sh" when cloning an
empty repository with `GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_HASH=sha256`. The test expects
the resulting hash format of the empty cloned repository to match the
default hash, but now we always end up with a sha1 repository. The
problem is that for dumb HTTP fetches, we have no easy way to figure out
the remote's hash function except for deriving it based on the hash
length of refs in `info/refs`. But as the remote repository is empty we
cannot rely on this detection mechanism.
Before the change in this commit we already initialized the repository
with the default hash function and then left it as-is. With this patch
we always use the hash function detected via the remote, where we fall
back to "sha1" in case we cannot detect it.
Neither the old nor the new behaviour are correct as we second-guess the
remote hash function in both cases. But given that this is a rather
unlikely edge case (we use the dumb HTTP protocol, the remote repository
uses SHA256 and the remote repository is empty), let's simply adapt the
test to assert the new behaviour. If we want to properly address this
edge case in the future we will have to extend the dumb HTTP protocol so
that we can properly detect the hash function for empty repositories.

requires a proper Git repository or otherwise the command will fail. But

We create the reference database in git-clone(1) quite early before
connecting to the remote repository. Given that we do not yet know about
the object format that the remote repository uses at that point in time
the consequence is that the refdb may be initialized with the wrong
object format.
This is not a problem in the context of the files backend as we do not
encode the object format anywhere, and furthermore the only reference
that we write between initializing the refdb and learning about the
object format is the "HEAD" symref. It will become a problem though once
we land the reftable backend, which indeed does require to know about
the proper object format at the time of creation. We thus need to
rearrange the logic in git-clone(1) so that we only initialize the refdb
once we have learned about the actual object format.
As a first step, move listing of remote references to happen earlier,
which also allow us to set up the hash algorithm of the repository
earlier now. While we aim to execute this logic as late as possible
until after most of the setup has happened already, detection of the
object format and thus later the setup of the reference database must
happen before any other logic that may spawn Git commands or otherwise
these Git commands may not recognize the repository as such.
The first Git step where we expect the repository to be fully initalized
is when we fetch bundles via bundle URIs. Funny enough, the comments
there also state that "the_repository must match the cloned repo", which
is indeed not necessarily the case for the hash algorithm right now. So
in practice it is the right thing to detect the remote's object format
before downloading bundle URIs anyway, and not doing so causes clones
with bundle URIs to fail when the local default object format does not
match the remote repository's format.
Unfortunately though, this creates a new issue: downloading bundles may
take a long time, so if we list refs beforehand they might've grown
stale meanwhile. It is not clear how to solve this issue except for a
second reference listing though after we have downloaded the bundles,
which may be an expensive thing to do.
Arguably though, it's preferable to have a staleness issue compared to
being unable to clone a repository altogether.

We parse push config by calling git_config() with our git_push_config()
callback. But inside that callback, when we see "push.gpgsign", we
ignore the value passed into the callback and instead make a new call to
git_config_get_value().
This is unnecessary at best, and slightly wrong at worst (if there are
multiple instances, get_value() only returns one; both methods end up
with last-one-wins, but we'd fail to report errors if earlier
incarnations were bogus).
The call was added by 68c757f219 (push: add a config option push.gpgSign
for default signed pushes, 2015-08-19). That commit doesn't give any
reason to deviate from the usual strategy here; it was probably just
somebody unfamiliar with our config API and its conventions.
It also added identical code to builtin/send-pack.c, which also handles
push.gpgsign.
And then the same issue spread to its neighbor in b33a15b081 (push: add
recurseSubmodules config option, 2015-11-17), presumably via

This patch fixes all three to just directly use the value provided to
the callback. While I was adjusting the code to do so, I noticed that
push.gpgsign is overly careful about a NULL value. After
git_parse_maybe_bool() has returned anything besides 1, we know that the
value cannot be NULL (if it were, it would be an implicit "true", and
many callers of maybe_bool rely on that). Here that lets us shorten "if

badTree
[receive "fsck"]
badTree
[fetch "fsck"]
badTree
will cause us to segfault. We can fix it with config_error_nonbool() in
the usual way, but we have to make a few more changes to get good error
messages. The problem is that all three spots do:
if (skip_prefix(var, "fsck.", &var))
to match and parse the actual message id. But that means that "var" now
just says "badTree" instead of "receive.fsck.badTree", making the
resulting message confusing. We can fix that by storing the parsed
message id in its own separate variable.

When the config parser sees an "implicit" bool like:
[core]
someVariable
it passes NULL to the config callback. Any callback code which expects a
string must check for NULL. This usually happens via helpers like
git_config_string(), etc, but some custom code forgets to do so and will
segfault.
These are all fairly vanilla cases where the solution is just the usual
pattern of:
if (!value)
return config_error_nonbool(var);
though note that in a few cases we have to split initializers like:
int some_var = initializer();
into:
int some_var;
if (!value)
return config_error_nonbool(var);
some_var = initializer();
There are still some broken instances after this patch, which I'll
address on their own in individual patches after this one.

Usually "bisect reset" cleans up any refs/bisect/ refs, along with
meta-files like .git/BISECT_LOG. But it only does so after deciding that
a bisection is active, which it does by reading BISECT_START. This is
usually fine, but it's possible to get into a confusing state if the
BISECT_START file is gone, but other cruft is left (this might be due to
a bug, or a system crash, etc).
And since "bisect reset" refuses to do anything in this state, the user
has no easy way to clean up the leftover cruft. While another "bisect
start" would clear the state, in the interim it can be annoying, as
other tools (like our bash prompt code) think we are bisecting, and
for-each-ref output may be polluted with refs/bisect/ entries.
Further adding to the confusion is that running "bisect reset $some_ref"
skips the BISECT_START check. So it never realizes that there's no
bisection active and does the cleanup anyway!
So let's just make sure we always do the cleanup, whether we looked at
BISECT_START or not. If the user doesn't give us a commit to reset to,
we'll still say "We are not bisecting" and skip the call to "git
checkout".

Instead of the fixed "<oldbase> <branch>" arguments, the replay
command now accepts "<revision-range>..." arguments in a similar
way as many other Git commands. This makes its interface more
standard and more flexible.
This also enables many revision related options accepted and
eaten by setup_revisions(). If the replay command was a high level
one or had a high level mode, it would make sense to restrict some
of the possible options, like those generating non-contiguous
history, as they could be confusing for most users.
Also as the interface of the command is now mostly finalized,
we can add more documentation and more testcases to make sure
the command will continue to work as designed in the future.
We only document the rev-list related options among all the
revision related options that are now accepted, as the rev-list
related ones are probably the most useful for now.

We want this command to be a minimal command that just does server side
picking of commits, displaying the results on stdout for higher level
scripts to consume.
So let's simplify it:
* remove the worktree and index reading/writing,
* remove the ref (and reflog) updating,
* remove the assumptions tying us to HEAD, since (a) this is not a
rebase and (b) we want to be able to pick commits in a bare repo,
i.e. to/from branches that are not checked out and not the main
branch,
* remove unneeded includes,
* handle rebasing multiple branches by printing on stdout the update
ref commands that should be performed.
The output can be piped into `git update-ref --stdin` for the ref
updates to happen.
In the future to make it easier for users to use this command
directly maybe an option can be added to automatically pipe its output
into `git update-ref`.

There is a bit dense logic to make a call to "die_if_checked_out()"

The most important part of the refactoring is the separation of the
guarding logic before making the call to die_if_checked_out() into
the caller specific part (e.g., the logic that decides that the
caller is trying to check out an existing branch) and the bypass due

* 'filter_and_format_refs()' which combines 'filter_refs()',

When '--no-sort' is passed to 'for-each-ref', 'tag', and 'branch', the
printed refs are still sorted by ascending refname. Change the handling of
sort options in these commands so that '--no-sort' to truly disables
sorting.
'--no-sort' does not disable sorting in these commands is because their
option parsing does not distinguish between "the absence of '--sort'"
(and/or values for tag.sort & branch.sort) and '--no-sort'. Both result in
an empty 'sorting_options' string list, which is parsed by
'ref_sorting_options()' to create the 'struct ref_sorting *' for the
command. If the string list is empty, 'ref_sorting_options()' interprets
that as "the absence of '--sort'" and returns the default ref sorting
structure (equivalent to "refname" sort).
To handle '--no-sort' properly while preserving the "refname" sort in the
"absence of --sort'" case, first explicitly add "refname" to the string list
*before* parsing options. This alone doesn't actually change any behavior,
since 'compare_refs()' already falls back on comparing refnames if two refs
are equal w.r.t all other sort keys.
Now that the string list is populated by default, '--no-sort' is the only
way to empty the 'sorting_options' string list. Update
'ref_sorting_options()' to return a NULL 'struct ref_sorting *' if the
string list is empty, and add a condition to 'ref_array_sort()' to skip the
sort altogether if the sort structure is NULL. Note that other functions
using 'struct ref_sorting *' do not need any changes because they already
ignore NULL values.
Finally, remove the condition around sorting in 'ls-remote', since it's no
longer necessary. Unlike 'for-each-ref' et. al., it does *not* do any
sorting by default. This default is preserved by simply leaving its sort key
string list empty before parsing options; if no additional sort keys are
set, 'struct ref_sorting *' is NULL and sorting is skipped.

Setting the rebase.autoSquash config variable to true implies a couple
of restrictions: it prevents preemptive fast-forwarding and it triggers
conflicts with apply backend options. However, it only actually results
in auto-squashing when combined with the --interactive (or -i) option,
due to code in run_specific_rebase() that disables auto-squashing unless
the REBASE_INTERACTIVE_EXPLICIT flag is set.
Doing autosquashing for rebase.autoSquash without --interactive would be
problematic in terms of backward compatibility, but conversely, there is
no need for the aforementioned restrictions without --interactive.
So drop the options.config_autosquash check from the conditions for
clearing allow_preemptive_ff, as the case where it is combined with
--interactive is already covered by the REBASE_INTERACTIVE_EXPLICIT
flag check above it.
Also drop the "apply options are incompatible with rebase.autoSquash"
error, because it is unreachable if it is restricted to --interactive,
as apply options already cause an error when used with --interactive.
Drop the tests for the error from t3422-rebase-incompatible-options.sh,
which has separate tests for the conflicts of --interactive with apply
options.
When neither --autosquash nor --no-autosquash are given, only set
options.autosquash to true if rebase.autosquash is combined with
--interactive.
Don't initialize options.config_autosquash to -1, as there is no need to
distinguish between rebase.autoSquash being unset or explicitly set to
false.

Allow users to limit or exclude files based on file attributes
during git-add and git-stash.
For example, the chromium project would like to use
$ git add . ':(exclude,attr:submodule)'
as submodules are managed by an external tool, forbidding end users
to record changes with "git add". Allowing "git add" to often
records changes that users do not want in their commits.
This commit does not change any attr magic implementation. It is
only adding attr as an allowed pathspec in git-add and git-stash,
which was previously blocked by GUARD_PATHSPEC and a pathspec mask
in parse_pathspec()).
However, we fix a bug in prefix_magic() where attr values were
unintentionally removed. This was triggerable when parse_pathspec()
is called with PATHSPEC_PREFIX_ORIGIN as a flag, which was the case
for git-stash (Bug originally filed here [*])
Furthermore, while other commands hit this code path it did not
result in unexpected behavior because this bug only impacts the
pathspec->items->original field which is NOT used to filter
paths. However, git-stash does use pathspec->items->original when
building args used to call other git commands. (See add_pathspecs()
usage and implementation in stash.c)
It is possible that when the attr pathspec feature was first added
in b0db704652 (pathspec: allow querying for attributes, 2017-03-13),
"PATHSPEC_ATTR" was just unintentionally left out of a few
GUARD_PATHSPEC() invocations.
Later, to get a more user-friendly error message when attr was used
with git-add, PATHSPEC_ATTR was added as a mask to git-add's
invocation of parse_pathspec() 84d938b732 (add: do not accept
pathspec magic 'attr', 2018-09-18). However, this user-friendly
error message was never added for git-stash.

would be helpful, however, to allow it to also merge single blobs.
Teach it an `--object-id` option which means that its arguments are
object IDs and not files to allow it to do so.
We handle the empty blob specially since read_mmblob doesn't read it
directly and otherwise users cannot specify an empty ancestor.

While we have multiple ways to show the value of a given reference, we
do not have any way to check whether a reference exists at all. While
commands like git-rev-parse(1) or git-show-ref(1) can be used to check
for reference existence in case the reference resolves to something
sane, neither of them can be used to check for existence in some other
scenarios where the reference does not resolve cleanly:
- References which have an invalid name cannot be resolved.
- References to nonexistent objects cannot be resolved.
- Dangling symrefs can be resolved via git-symbolic-ref(1), but this
requires the caller to special case existence checks depending on
whether or not a reference is symbolic or direct.
Furthermore, git-rev-list(1) and other commands do not let the caller
distinguish easily between an actually missing reference and a generic
error.
Taken together, this seems like sufficient motivation to introduce a
separate plumbing command to explicitly check for the existence of a
reference without trying to resolve its contents.
This new command comes in the form of `git show-ref --exists`. This
new mode will exit successfully when the reference exists, with a
specific exit code of 2 when it does not exist, or with 1 when there
has been a generic error.
Note that the only way to properly implement this command is by using
the internal `refs_read_raw_ref()` function. While the public function
`refs_resolve_ref_unsafe()` can be made to behave in the same way by
passing various flags, it does not provide any way to obtain the errno
with which the reference backend failed when reading the reference. As
such, it becomes impossible for us to distinguish generic errors from
the explicit case where the reference wasn't found.

The synopsis treats the `--verify` and the implicit mode the same. They
are slightly different though:
- They accept different sets of flags.
- The implicit mode accepts patterns while the `--verify` mode
accepts references.
Split up the synopsis for these two modes such that we can disambiguate
those differences.
While at it, drop "--quiet" from the pattern mode's synopsis. It does
not make a lot of sense to list patterns, but squelch the listing output
itself. The description for "--quiet" is adapted accordingly.

The git-show-ref(1) command has three different modes, of which one is
implicit and the other two can be chosen explicitly by passing a flag.
But while these modes are standalone and cause us to execute completely
separate code paths, we gladly accept the case where a user asks for
both `--exclude-existing` and `--verify` at the same time even though it
is not obvious what will happen. Spoiler: we ignore `--verify` and
execute the `--exclude-existing` mode.
Let's explicitly detect this invalid usage and die in case both modes
were requested.
