When executing a fetch, then git will currently allocate one reference
transaction per reference update and directly commit it. This means that
fetches are non-atomic: even if some of the reference updates fail,
others may still succeed and modify local references.
This is fine in many scenarios, but this strategy has its downsides.
- The view of remote references may be inconsistent and may show a
bastardized state of the remote repository.
- Batching together updates may improve performance in certain
scenarios. While the impact probably isn't as pronounced with loose
references, the upcoming reftable backend may benefit as it needs to
write less files in case the update is batched.
- The reference-update hook is currently being executed twice per
updated reference. While this doesn't matter when there is no such
hook, we have seen severe performance regressions when doing a
git-fetch(1) with reference-transaction hook when the remote
repository has hundreds of thousands of references.
Similar to `git push --atomic`, this commit thus introduces atomic
fetches. Instead of allocating one reference transaction per updated
reference, it causes us to only allocate a single transaction and commit
it as soon as all updates were received. If locking of any reference
fails, then we abort the complete transaction and don't update any
reference, which gives us an all-or-nothing fetch.
Note that this may not completely fix the first of above downsides, as
the consistent view also depends on the server-side. If the server
doesn't have a consistent view of its own references during the
reference negotiation phase, then the client would get the same
inconsistent view the server has. This is a separate problem though and,
if it actually exists, can be fixed at a later point.
This commit also changes the way we write FETCH_HEAD in case `--atomic`
is passed. Instead of writing changes as we go, we need to accumulate
all changes first and only commit them at the end when we know that all
reference updates succeeded. Ideally, we'd just do so via a temporary
file so that we don't need to carry all updates in-memory. This isn't
trivially doable though considering the `--append` mode, where we do not
truncate the file but simply append to it. And given that we support
concurrent processes appending to FETCH_HEAD at the same time without
any loss of data, seeding the temporary file with current contents of
FETCH_HEAD initially and then doing a rename wouldn't work either. So
this commit implements the simple strategy of buffering all changes and
appending them to the file on commit.

The handling of ref updates is completely handled by `s_update_ref()`,
which will manage the complete lifecycle of the reference transaction.
This is fine right now given that git-fetch(1) does not support atomic
fetches, so each reference gets its own transaction. It is quite
inflexible though, as `s_update_ref()` only knows about a single
reference update at a time, so it doesn't allow us to alter the
strategy.
This commit prepares `s_update_ref()` and its only caller
`update_local_ref()` to allow passing an external transaction. If none
is given, then the existing behaviour is triggered which creates a new
transaction and directly commits it. Otherwise, if the caller provides a
transaction, then we only queue the update but don't commit it. This
optionally allows the caller to manage when a transaction will be
committed.
Given that `update_local_ref()` is always called with a `NULL`
transaction for now, no change in behaviour is expected from this
change.

This commit refactors `append_fetch_head()` to use a `struct strbuf` for
formatting the update which we're about to append to the FETCH_HEAD
file. While the refactoring doesn't have much of a benefit right now, it
serves as a preparatory step to implement atomic fetches where we need
to buffer all updates to FETCH_HEAD and only flush them out if all
reference updates succeeded.

When performing a fetch with the default `--write-fetch-head` option, we
write all updated references to FETCH_HEAD while the updates are
performed. Given that updates are not performed atomically, it means
that we we write to FETCH_HEAD even if some or all of the reference
updates fail.
Given that we simply update FETCH_HEAD ad-hoc with each reference, the
logic is completely contained in `store_update_refs` and thus quite hard
to extend. This can already be seen by the way we skip writing to the
FETCH_HEAD: instead of having a conditional which simply skips writing,
we instead open "/dev/null" and needlessly write all updates there.
We are about to extend git-fetch(1) to accept an `--atomic` flag which
will make the fetch an all-or-nothing operation with regards to the
reference updates. This will also require us to make the updates to
FETCH_HEAD an all-or-nothing operation, but as explained doing so is not
easy with the current layout. This commit thus refactors the wa we write
to FETCH_HEAD and pulls out the logic to open, append to, commit and
close the file. While this may seem rather over-the top at first,
pulling out this logic will make it a lot easier to update the code in a
subsequent commit. It also allows us to easily skip writing completely
in case `--no-write-fetch-head` was passed.

Change the ref-filter sorting of detached HEAD to check the
FILTER_REFS_DETACHED_HEAD flag, instead of relying on the ref
description filled-in by get_head_description() to start with "(",
which in turn we expect to ASCII-sort before any other reference.
For context, we'd like the detached line to appear first at the start
of "git branch -l", e.g.:
$ git branch -l
* (HEAD detached at <hash>)
master
This doesn't change that, but improves on a fix made in
28438e84e0 (ref-filter: sort detached HEAD lines firstly, 2019-06-18)
and gives the Chinese translation the ability to use its preferred
punctuation marks again.
In Chinese the fullwidth versions of punctuation like "()" are
typically written as (U+FF08 fullwidth left parenthesis), (U+FF09
fullwidth right parenthesis) instead[1]. This form is used in both
po/zh_{CN,TW}.po in most cases where "()" is translated in a string.
Aside from that improvement to the Chinese translation, it also just
makes for cleaner code that we mark any special cases in the ref_array
we're sorting with flags and make the sort function aware of them,
instead of piggy-backing on the general-case of strcmp() doing the
right thing.
As seen in the amended tests this made reverse sorting a bit more
consistent. Before this we'd sometimes sort this message in the
middle, now it's consistently at the beginning or end, depending on
whether we're doing a normal or reverse sort. Having it at the end
doesn't make much sense either, but at least it behaves consistently
now. A follow-up commit will make this behavior under reverse sorting
even better.
I'm removing the "TRANSLATORS" comments that were in the old code
while I'm at it. Those were added in d4919bb288 (ref-filter: move
get_head_description() from branch.c, 2017-01-10). I think it's
obvious from context, string and translation memory in typical
translation tools that these are the same or similar string.

Change the reverse/ignore_case/version sort flags in the ref_sorting
struct into a bitfield. Having three of them was already a bit
unwieldy, but it would be even more so if another flag needed a
function like ref_sorting_icase_all() introduced in
76f9e569ad (ref-filter: apply --ignore-case to all sorting keys,
2020-05-03).
A follow-up change will introduce such a flag, so let's move this over

the "enum" pattern from builtin/rebase.c's b4c8eb024a (builtin
rebase: support --quiet, 2018-09-04).
Perhaps there's a more idiomatic way of doing the "for each in list
amend mask" pattern than this "mask/on" variable combo. This function
doesn't allow us to e.g. do any arbitrary changes to the bitfield for
multiple flags, but I think in this case that's fine. The common case
is that we're calling this with a list of one.

Convert the "mktag" command to use parse-options.h instead of its own
ad-hoc argc handling. This doesn't matter much in practice since it
doesn't support any options, but removes another special-case in our

It does marginally improve the situation for programs that want to
execute git commands in a consistent manner and e.g. always use
--end-of-options. E.g. "gitaly" does that, and has a blacklist of
built-ins that don't support --end-of-options. This is one less

In earlier commits mktag learned to use the fsck machinery, at which
point we needed to add fsck.extraHeaderEntry so it could be as strict
about extra headers as it's been ever since it was implemented.
But it's not nice to need to switch away from "mktag" to "hash-object"
+ manual "fsck" just because you'd like to have an extra header. So
let's support turning it off by getting "fsck.*" variables from the
config.
Pedantically speaking it's still not possible to make "mktag" behave
just like "hash-object -t tag" does, since we're unconditionally going
to check the referenced object in verify_object_in_tag(), which is our
own check, and not one that exists in fsck.c.
But the spirit of "this works like fsck" is preserved, in that if you
created such a tag with "hash-object" and did a full "fsck" on the
repository it would also error out about that invalid object, it just
wouldn't emit the same message as fsck does.

Move the fsck_config() function from builtin/fsck.c to fsck.[ch]. This
allows for re-using it in other tools that expose fsck logic and want
to support its configuration variables.
A logical continuation of this change would be to use a common
function for all of {fetch,receive}.fsck.* and fsck.*. See
5d477a334a (fsck (receive-pack): allow demoting errors to warnings,
2015-06-22) and my own 1362df0d41 (fetch: implement fetch.fsck.*,
2018-07-27) for the relevant code.
However, those routines want to not parse the fsck.skipList into OIDs,
but rather pass them along with the --strict option to another
process. It would be possible to refactor that whole thing so we
support e.g. a "fetch." prefix, then just keep track of the skiplist
as a filename instead of parsing it, and learn to spew that all out
from our internal structures into something we can append to the
--strict option.
But instead I'm planning to re-use this in "mktag", which'll just
re-use these "fsck.*" variables as-is.

Change the validation logic in "mktag" to use fsck's fsck_tag()
instead of its own custom parser. Curiously the logic for both dates
back to the same commit[1]. Let's unify them so we're not maintaining
two sets functions to verify that a tag is OK.
The behavior of fsck_tag() and the old "mktag" code being removed here
is different in few aspects.
I think it makes sense to remove some of those checks, namely:
A. fsck only cares that the timezone matches [-+][0-9]{4}. The mktag
code disallowed values larger than 1400.
Yes there's currently no timezone with a greater offset[2], but
since we allow any number of non-offical timezones (e.g. +1234)
passing this through seems fine. Git also won't break in the
future if e.g. French Polynesia decides it needs to outdo the Line
Islands when it comes to timezone extravagance.
B. fsck allows missing author names such as "tagger <email>", mktag
wouldn't, but would allow e.g. "tagger [2 spaces] <email>" (but
not "tagger [1 space] <email>"). Now we allow all of these.
C. Like B, but "mktag" disallowed spaces in the <email> part, fsck
allows it.
In some ways fsck_tag() is stricter than "mktag" was, namely:
D. fsck disallows zero-padded dates, but mktag didn't care. So
e.g. the timestamp "0000000000 +0000" produces an error now. A
test in "t1006-cat-file.sh" relied on this, it's been changed to
use "hash-object" (without fsck) instead.
There was one check I deemed worth keeping by porting it over to
fsck_tag():
E. "mktag" did not allow any custom headers, and by extension (as an
empty commit is allowed) also forbade an extra stray trailing
newline after the headers it knew about.
Add a new check in the "ignore" category to fsck and use it. This
somewhat abuses the facility added in efaba7cc77 (fsck:
optionally ignore specific fsck issues completely, 2015-06-22).
This is somewhat of hack, but probably the least invasive change
we can make here. The fsck command will shuffle these categories
around, e.g. under --strict the "info" becomes a "warn" and "warn"
becomes "error". Existing users of fsck's (and others,
e.g. index-pack) --strict option rely on this.
So we need to put something into a category that'll be ignored by
all existing users of the API. Pretending that
fsck.extraHeaderEntry=error ("ignore" by default) was set serves
to do this for us.

Git's background maintenance uses cron by default, but this is not
available on Windows. Instead, integrate with Task Scheduler.
Tasks can be scheduled using the 'schtasks' command. There are several
command-line options that can allow for some advanced scheduling, but
unfortunately these seem to all require authenticating using a password.
Instead, use the "/xml" option to pass an XML file that contains the
configuration for the necessary schedule. These XML files are based on
some that I exported after constructing a schedule in the Task Scheduler
GUI. These options only run background maintenance when the user is
logged in, and more fields are populated with the current username and
SID at run-time by 'schtasks'.
Since the GIT_TEST_MAINT_SCHEDULER environment variable allows us to
specify 'schtasks' as the scheduler, we can test the Windows-specific
logic on other platforms. Thus, add a check that the XML file written
by Git is valid when xmllint exists on the system.
Since we use a temporary file for the XML files sent to 'schtasks', we
prefix the random characters with the frequency so it is easier to
examine the proper file during tests. Instead of an exact match on the
'args' file, we 'grep' for the arguments other than the filename.
There is a deficiency in the current design. Windows has two kinds of
applications: GUI applications that start by "winmain()" and console
applications that start by "main()". Console applications are attached
to a new Console window if they are not already associated with a GUI
application. This means that every hour the scheudled task launches a
command window for the scheduled tasks. Not only is this visually
obtrusive, but it also takes focus from whatever else the user is
doing!
A simple fix would be to insert a GUI application that acts as a shim
between the scheduled task and Git. This is currently possible in Git
for Windows by setting the <Command> tag equal to
C:\Program Files\Git\git-bash.exe
with options "--hide --no-needs-console --command=cmd\git.exe"
followed by the arguments currently used. Since git-bash.exe is not
included in Windows builds of core Git, I chose to leave out this
feature. My plan is to submit a small patch to Git for Windows that
converts the use of git.exe with this use of git-bash.exe in the
short term. In the long term, we can consider creating this GUI
shim application within core Git, perhaps in contrib/.

The existing mechanism for scheduling background maintenance is done
through cron. The 'crontab -e' command allows updating the schedule
while cron itself runs those commands. While this is technically
supported by macOS, it has some significant deficiencies:
1. Every run of 'crontab -e' must request elevated privileges through
the user interface. When running 'git maintenance start' from the
Terminal app, it presents a dialog box saying "Terminal.app would
like to administer your computer. Administration can include
modifying passwords, networking, and system settings." This is more
alarming than what we are hoping to achieve. If this alert had some
information about how "git" is trying to run "crontab" then we would
have some reason to believe that this dialog might be fine. However,
it also doesn't help that some scenarios just leave Git waiting for
a response without presenting anything to the user. I experienced
this when executing the command from a Bash terminal view inside
Visual Studio Code.
2. While cron initializes a user environment enough for "git config
--global --show-origin" to show the correct config file information,
it does not set up the environment enough for Git Credential Manager
Core to load credentials during a 'prefetch' task. My prefetches
against private repositories required re-authenticating through UI
pop-ups in a way that should not be required.
The solution is to switch from cron to the Apple-recommended [1]
'launchd' tool.
[1] https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/documentation/MacOSX/Conceptual/BPSystemStartup/Chapters/ScheduledJobs.html
The basics of this tool is that we need to create XML-formatted
"plist" files inside "~/Library/LaunchAgents/" and then use the
'launchctl' tool to make launchd aware of them. The plist files
include all of the scheduling information, along with the command-line
arguments split across an array of <string> tags.
For example, here is my plist file for the weekly scheduled tasks:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0"><dict>
<key>Label</key><string>org.git-scm.git.weekly</string>
<key>ProgramArguments</key>
<array>
<string>/usr/local/libexec/git-core/git</string>
<string>--exec-path=/usr/local/libexec/git-core</string>
<string>for-each-repo</string>
<string>--config=maintenance.repo</string>
<string>maintenance</string>
<string>run</string>
<string>--schedule=weekly</string>
</array>
<key>StartCalendarInterval</key>
<array>
<dict>
<key>Day</key><integer>0</integer>
<key>Hour</key><integer>0</integer>
<key>Minute</key><integer>0</integer>
</dict>
</array>
</dict>
</plist>
The schedules for the daily and hourly tasks are more complicated
since we need to use an array for the StartCalendarInterval with
an entry for each of the six days other than the 0th day (to avoid
colliding with the weekly task), and each of the 23 hours other
than the 0th hour (to avoid colliding with the daily task).
The "Label" value is currently filled with "org.git-scm.git.X"
where X is the frequency. We need a different plist file for each
frequency.
The launchctl command needs to be aligned with a user id in order
to initialize the command environment. This must be done using
the 'launchctl bootstrap' subcommand. This subcommand is new as
of macOS 10.11, which was released in September 2015. Before that
release the 'launchctl load' subcommand was recommended. The best
source of information on this transition I have seen is available
at [2]. The current design does not preclude a future version that
detects the available fatures of 'launchctl' to use the older
commands. However, it is best to rely on the newest version since
Apple might completely remove the deprecated version on short
notice.
[2] https://babodee.wordpress.com/2016/04/09/launchctl-2-0-syntax/
To remove a schedule, we must run 'launchctl bootout' with a valid
plist file. We also need to 'bootout' a task before the 'bootstrap'
subcommand will succeed, if such a task already exists.
The need for a user id requires us to run 'id -u' which works on
POSIX systems but not Windows. Further, the need for fully-qualitifed
path names including $HOME behaves differently in the Git internals and
the external test suite. The $HOME variable starts with "C:\..." instead
of the "/c/..." that is provided by Git in these subcommands. The test
therefore has a prerequisite that we are not on Windows. The cross-
platform logic still allows us to test the macOS logic on a Linux
machine.
We can verify the commands that were run by 'git maintenance start'
and 'git maintenance stop' by injecting a script that writes the
command-line arguments into GIT_TEST_MAINT_SCHEDULER.
An earlier version of this patch accidentally had an opening
"<dict>" tag when it should have had a closing "</dict>" tag. This
was caught during manual testing with actual 'launchctl' commands,
but we do not want to update developers' tasks when running tests.
It appears that macOS includes the "xmllint" tool which can verify
the XML format. This is useful for any system that might contain
the tool, so use it whenever it is available.
We strive to make these tests work on all platforms, but Windows caused
some headaches. In particular, the value of getuid() called by the C
code is not guaranteed to be the same as `$(id -u)` invoked by a test.
This is because `git.exe` is a native Windows program, whereas the
utility programs run by the test script mostly utilize the MSYS2 runtime,
which emulates a POSIX-like environment. Since the purpose of the test
is to check that the input to the hook is well-formed, the actual user
ID is immaterial, thus we can work around the problem by making the the
test UID-agnostic. Another subtle issue is the $HOME environment

On `git maintenance start`, we add a few entries to the user's cron
table. We wrap our entries using two magic markers, "# BEGIN GIT
MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE" and "# END GIT MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE". At a later
`git maintenance stop`, we will go through the table and remove these
lines. Or rather, we will remove the "BEGIN" marker, the "END" marker
and everything between them.
Alas, we have a bug in how we detect the "END" marker: we don't. As we
loop through all the lines of the crontab, if we are in the "old
region", i.e., the region we're aiming to remove, we make an early
`continue` and don't get as far as checking for the "END" marker. Thus,
once we've seen our "BEGIN", we remove everything until the end of the
file.
Rewrite the logic for identifying these markers. There are four cases
that are mutually exclusive: The current line starts a region or it ends
it, or it's firmly within the region, or it's outside of it (and should
be printed).

`git worktree repair` knows how to repair the two-way links between the
repository and a worktree as long as a link in one or the other
direction is sound. For instance, if a linked worktree is moved (without
using `git worktree move`), repair is possible because the worktree
still knows the location of the repository even though the repository no
longer knows where the worktree is. Similarly, if the repository is
moved, repair is possible since the repository still knows the locations
of the worktrees even though the worktrees no longer know where the
repository is.
However, if both the repository and the worktrees are moved, then links
are severed in both directions, and no repair is possible. This is the
case even when the new worktree locations are specified as arguments to
`git worktree repair`. The reason for this limitation is twofold. First,
when `repair` consults the worktree's gitfile (/path/to/worktree/.git)
to determine the corresponding <repo>/worktrees/<id>/gitdir file to fix,
<repo> is the old path to the repository, thus it is unable to fix the
`gitdir` file at its new location since it doesn't know where it is.
Second, when `repair` consults <repo>/worktrees/<id>/gitdir to find the
location of the worktree's gitfile (/path/to/worktree/.git), the path
recorded in `gitdir` is the old location of the worktree's gitfile, thus
it is unable to repair the gitfile since it doesn't know where it is.
Fix these shortcomings by teaching `repair` to attempt to infer the new
location of the <repo>/worktrees/<id>/gitdir file when the location
recorded in the worktree's gitfile has become stale but the file is
otherwise well-formed. The inference is intentionally simple-minded.
For each worktree path specified as an argument, `git worktree repair`
manually reads the ".git" gitfile at that location and, if it is
well-formed, extracts the <id>. It then searches for a corresponding
<id> in <repo>/worktrees/ and, if found, concludes that there is a
reasonable match and updates <repo>/worktrees/<id>/gitdir to point at
the specified worktree path. In order for <repo> to be known, `git
worktree repair` must be run in the main worktree or bare repository.
`git worktree repair` first attempts to repair each incoming
/path/to/worktree/.git gitfile to point at the repository, and then
attempts to repair outgoing <repo>/worktrees/<id>/gitdir files to point
at the worktrees. This sequence was chosen arbitrarily when originally
implemented since the order of fixes is immaterial as long as one side
of the two-way link between the repository and a worktree is sound.
However, for this new repair technique to work, the order must be
reversed. This is because the new inference mechanism, when it is
successful, allows the outgoing <repo>/worktrees/<id>/gitdir file to be
repaired, thus fixing one side of the two-way link. Once that side is
fixed, the other side can be fixed by the existing repair mechanism,
hence the order of repairs is now significant.
Two safeguards are employed to avoid hijacking a worktree from a
different repository if the user accidentally specifies a foreign
worktree as an argument. The first, as described above, is that it
requires an <id> match between the repository and the worktree. That
itself is not foolproof for preventing hijack, so the second safeguard
is that the inference will only kick in if the worktree's
/path/to/worktree/.git gitfile does not point at a repository.

both of whom have "return" statements. Those are also genuine

git rev-parse has several options which print various paths. Some of
these paths are printed relative to the current working directory, and
some are absolute.
Normally, this is not a problem, but there are times when one wants
paths entirely in one format or another. This can be done trivially if
the paths are canonical, but canonicalizing paths is not possible on
some shell scripting environments which lack realpath(1) and also in Go,
which lacks functions that properly canonicalize paths on Windows.
To help out the scripter, let's provide an option which turns most of
the paths printed by git rev-parse to be either relative to the current
working directory or absolute and canonical. Document which options are
affected and which are not so that users are not confused.
This approach is cleaner and tidier than providing duplicates of
existing options which are either relative or absolute.
Note that if the user needs both forms, it is possible to pass an
additional option in the middle of the command line which changes the
behavior of subsequent operations.

The on-disk bitmap format has a flag to mark a bitmap to be "reused".
This is a rather curious feature, and works like this:
- a run of pack-objects would decide to mark the last 80% of the
bitmaps it generates with the reuse flag
- the next time we generate bitmaps, we'd see those reuse flags from
the last run, and mark those commits as special:
- we'd be more likely to select those commits to get bitmaps in
the new output
- when generating the bitmap for a selected commit, we'd reuse the
old bitmap as-is (rearranging the bits to match the new pack, of
course)
However, neither of these behaviors particularly makes sense.
Just because a commit happened to be bitmapped last time does not make
it a good candidate for having a bitmap this time. In particular, we may
choose bitmaps based on how recent they are in history, or whether a ref
tip points to them, and those things will change. We're better off
re-considering fresh which commits are good candidates.
Reusing the existing bitmap _is_ a reasonable thing to do to save
computation. But only reusing exact bitmaps is a weak form of this. If
we have an old bitmap for A and now want a new bitmap for its child, we
should be able to compute that only by looking at trees and that are new
to the child. But this code would consider only exact reuse (which is
perhaps why it was eager to select those commits in the first place).
Furthermore, the recent switch to the reverse-edge algorithm for
generating bitmaps dropped this optimization entirely (and yet still
performs better).
So let's do a few cleanups:
- drop the whole "reusing bitmaps" phase of generating bitmaps. It's
not helping anything, and is mostly unused code (or worse, code that
is using CPU but not doing anything useful)
- drop the use of the on-disk reuse flag to select commits to bitmap
- stop setting the on-disk reuse flag in bitmaps we generate (since
nothing respects it anymore)
We will keep a few innards of the reuse code, which will help us
implement a more capable version of the "reuse" optimization:
- simplify rebuild_existing_bitmaps() into a function that only builds
the mapping of bits between the old and new orders, but doesn't
actually convert any bitmaps
- make rebuild_bitmap() public; we'll call it lazily to convert bitmaps
as we traverse (using the mapping created above)

If 'git clone' couldn't execute 'transport_fetch_refs()' (e.g., because
of an error on the remote's side in 'git upload-pack'), then it will
silently ignore it.
Even though this has been the case at least since clone was ported to C
(way back in 8434c2f1af (Build in clone, 2008-04-27)), 'git fetch'
doesn't ignore these and reports any failures it sees.
That suggests that ignoring the return value in 'git clone' is simply an
oversight that should be corrected. That's exactly what this patch does.
(Noticing and fixing this is no coincidence, we'll want it in the next
patch in order to demonstrate a regression in 'git upload-pack' via a
'git clone'.)
There's no additional logging here, but that matches how 'git fetch'
handles the same case. An assumption there is that whichever part of
transport_fetch_refs() fails will complain loudly, so any additional
logging here is redundant.

sparse-checkouts are built on the patterns in the
$GIT_DIR/info/sparse-checkout file, where commands have modified
behavior for paths that do not match those patterns. The differences in
behavior, as far as the bugs concerned here, fall into three different
categories (with git subcommands that fall into each category listed):
* commands that only look at files matching the patterns:
* status
* diff
* clean
* update-index
* commands that remove files from the working tree that do not match
the patterns, and restore files that do match them:
* read-tree
* switch
* checkout
* reset (--hard)
* commands that omit writing files to the working tree that do not
match the patterns, unless those files are not clean:
* merge
* rebase
* cherry-pick
* revert
There are some caveats above, e.g. a plain `git diff` ignores files
outside the sparsity patterns but will show diffs for paths outside the
sparsity patterns when revision arguments are passed. (Technically,
diff is treating the sparse paths as matching HEAD.) So, there is some
internal inconsistency among these commands. There are also additional
commands that should behave differently in the face of sparse-checkouts,
as the sparse-checkout documentation alludes to, but the above is
sufficient for me to explain how `git stash` is affected.
What is relevant here is that logically 'stash' should behave like a
merge; it three-way merges the changes the user had in progress at stash
creation time, the HEAD at the time the stash was created, and the
current HEAD, in order to get the stashed changes applied to the current
branch. However, this simplistic view doesn't quite work in practice,
because stash tweaks it a bit due to two factors: (1) flags like
--keep-index and --include-untracked (why we used two different verbs,
'keep' and 'include', is a rant for another day) modify what should be
staged at the end and include more things that should be quasi-merged,
(2) stash generally wants changes to NOT be staged. It only provides
exceptions when (a) some of the changes had conflicts and thus we want
to use stages to denote the clean merges and higher order stages to
mark the conflicts, or (b) if there is a brand new file we don't want
it to become untracked.
stash has traditionally gotten this special behavior by first doing a
merge, and then when it's clean, applying a pipeline of commands to
modify the result. This series of commands for
unstaging-non-newly-added-files came from the following commands:
git diff-index --cached --name-only --diff-filter=A $CTREE >"$a"
git read-tree --reset $CTREE
git update-index --add --stdin <"$a"
rm -f "$a"
Looking back at the different types of special sparsity handling listed
at the beginning of this message, you may note that we have at least one
of each type covered here: merge, diff-index, and read-tree. The weird
mix-and-match led to 3 different bugs:
(1) If a path merged cleanly and it didn't match the sparsity patterns,
the merge backend would know to avoid writing it to the working tree and
keep the SKIP_WORKTREE bit, simply only updating it in the index.
Unfortunately, the subsequent commands would essentially undo the
changes in the index and thus simply toss the changes altogether since
there was nothing left in the working tree. This means the stash is
only partially applied.
(2) If a path existed in the worktree before `git stash apply` despite
having the SKIP_WORKTREE bit set, then the `git read-tree --reset` would
print an error message of the form
error: Entry 'modified' not uptodate. Cannot merge.
and cause stash to abort early.
(3) If there was a brand new file added by the stash, then the
diff-index command would save that pathname to the temporary file, the
read-tree --reset would remove it from the index, and the update-index
command would barf due to no such file being present in the working
copy; it would print a message of the form:
error: NEWFILE: does not exist and --remove not passed
fatal: Unable to process path NEWFILE
and then cause stash to abort early.
Basically, the whole idea of unstage-unless-brand-new requires special
care when you are dealing with a sparse-checkout. Fix these problems
by applying the following simple rule:
When we unstage files, if they have the SKIP_WORKTREE bit set,
clear that bit and write the file out to the working directory.
(*) If there's already a file present in the way, rename it first.
This fixes all three problems in t7012.13 and allows us to mark it as
passing.

When stash was converted from shell to a builtin, it merely
transliterated the forking of various git commands from shell to a C
program that would fork the same commands. Some of those were converted
over to actual library calls, but much of the pipeline-of-commands
design still remains. Fix some of this by replacing the portion
corresponding to
git diff-index --cached --name-only --diff-filter=A $CTREE >"$a"
git read-tree --reset $CTREE
git update-index --add --stdin <"$a"
rm -f "$a"
into a library function that does the same thing. (The read-tree
--reset was already partially converted over to a library call, but as
an independent piece.) Note here that this came after a merge operation
was performed. The merge machinery always stages anything that cleanly
merges, and the above code only runs if there are no conflicts. Its
purpose is to make it so that when there are no conflicts, all the
changes from the stash are unstaged. However, that causes brand new
files from the stash to become untracked, so the code above first saves
those files off and then re-adds them afterwards.
We replace the whole series of commands with a simple function that will
unstage files that are not newly added. This doesn't fix any bugs in
the usage of these commands, it simply matches the existing behavior but
makes it into a single atomic operation that we can then operate on as a
whole. A subsequent commit will take advantage of this to fix issues
with these commands in sparse-checkouts.
This conversion incidentally fixes t3906.1, because the separate
update-index process would die with the following error messages:
error: uninitialized_sub: is a directory - add files inside instead
fatal: Unable to process path uninitialized_sub
The unstaging of the directory as a submodule meant it was no longer
tracked, and thus as an uninitialized directory it could not be added
back using `git update-index --add`, thus resulting in this error and
early abort. Most of the submodule tests in 3906 continue to fail after
this change, this change was just enough to push the first of those
tests to success.

$ git grep -oh 'localtime\(_.\)\?' -- **/*.c | sort | uniq -c
shows that the only usage of the thread-unsafe 'localtime' is in a piece
of documentation.
So, convert this instance to use the thread-safe version for
consistency, and to appease some analysis tools.

The "git maintenance run" and "git maintenance start/stop" commands
holds a file-based lock at the .git/maintenance.lock and
.git/schedule.lock respectively. These locks are used to ensure only
one maintenance process is executed at the time as both operations
involves writing data into the git repository.
The path to the lock file is built using
"the_repository->objects->odb->path" that results in SEGFAULT when we
have no repository available as "the_repository->objects->odb" is
set to NULL.
Let's teach maintenance command to use RUN_SETUP option that will
provide the validation and fail when running outside of a repository.
Hence fixing the SEGFAULT for all three operations and making the
behaviour consistent across all subcommands.
Setting the RUN_SETUP also provides the same protection for all
subcommands given that the "register" and "unregister" also requires to
be executed inside a repository.
Furthermore let's remove the local validation implemented by the
"register" and "unregister" as this will not be required anymore with
the new option.

When a repository's leading directories contain regex metacharacters,
the config calls for 'git maintenance register' and 'git maintenance
unregister' are not careful enough. Use the new --fixed-value option
to direct the config machinery to use exact string matches. This is a
more robust option than escaping these arguments in a piecemeal fashion.
For the test, require that we are not running on Windows since the '+'
and '*' characters are not allowed on that filesystem.

The config builtin does its own regex matching of values for the --get,

The git_config_set_multivar_in_file_gently() and related methods now
take a 'flags' bitfield, so add a new bit representing the --fixed-value
option from 'git config'. This alters the purpose of the value_pattern
parameter to be an exact string match. This requires some initialization
changes in git_config_set_multivar_in_file_gently() and a new strcmp()
call in the matches() method.
The new CONFIG_FLAGS_FIXED_VALUE flag is initialized in builtin/config.c
based on the --fixed-value option, and that needs to be updated in
several callers.
This patch only affects some of the modes of 'git config', and the rest
will be completed in the next change.

The 'git config' builtin takes a 'value-pattern' parameter for several
actions. This can cause confusion when expecting exact value matches
instead of regex matches, especially when the input string contains
metacharacters. While callers can escape the patterns themselves, it
would be more friendly to allow an argument to disable the pattern
matching in favor of an exact string match.
Add a new '--fixed-value' option that does not currently change the
behavior. The implementation will be filled in by later changes for
each appropriate action. For now, check and test that --fixed-value
will abort the command when included with an incompatible action or
without a 'value-pattern' argument.
The name '--fixed-value' was chosen over something simpler like
'--fixed' because some commands allow regular expressions on the
key in addition to the value.

The 'value_regex' argument in the 'git config' builtin is poorly named,
especially related to an upcoming change that allows exact string
matches instead of ERE pattern matches.
Perform a mostly mechanical change of every instance of 'value_regex' to
'value_pattern' in the codebase. This is only critical for documentation
and error messages, but it is best to be consistent inside the codebase,
too.
For documentation, use 'value-pattern' which is better punctuation. This
affects Documentation/git-config.txt and the usage in builtin/config.c,
which was already mixed between 'value_regex' and 'value-regex'.
I gave some thought to leaving the value_regex variables inside config.c
that are regex_t pointers. However, it is probably best to keep the name
consistent with the rest of the variables.
This does not update the translations inside the po/ directory, as that
creates conflicts with ongoing work. The input strings should
automatically update through automation, and a few of the output strings
currently use "[value_regex]" directly.

We will extend the flexibility of the config API. Before doing so, let's
take an existing 'int multi_replace' parameter and replace it with a new
'unsigned flags' parameter that can take multiple options as a bit field.
Update all callers that specified multi_replace to now specify the
CONFIG_FLAGS_MULTI_REPLACE flag. To add more clarity, extend the
documentation of git_config_set_multivar_in_file() including a clear
labeling of its arguments. Other config API methods in config.h require
only a change of the final parameter from 'int' to 'unsigned'.

When holding the lock for rewriting the credential file, use a timeout
to avoid race conditions when the credentials file needs to be updated
in parallel.
An example would be doing `fetch --all` on a repository with several
remotes that need credentials, using parallel fetching.
The timeout can be configured using "credentialStore.lockTimeoutMS",
defaulting to 1 second.

The existing schedule mechanism using 'cron' is supported by POSIX
platforms, but not Windows. It also works slightly differently on
macOS to significant detriment of the user experience. To allow for
new implementations on these platforms, extract a method that
performs the platform-specific scheduling mechanism. This will be
swapped at compile time with new implementations on specialized
platforms.
As we add this generality, rename GIT_TEST_CRONTAB to
GIT_TEST_MAINT_SCHEDULER. Further, this variable is now parsed as
"<scheduler>:<command>" so we can test platform-specific scheduling
logic even when not on the correct platform. By specifying the
<scheduler> in this string, we will be able to test all three sets of
Git logic from a Linux machine.

In 15fabd1bbd ("builtin/grep.c: make configuration callback more
reusable", 2012-10-09), we learned to fill a `static struct grep_opt
grep_defaults` which we can use as a blueprint for other such structs.
At the time, we didn't consider designated initializers to be widely
useable, but these days, we do. (See, e.g., cbc0f81d96 ("strbuf: use
designated initializers in STRBUF_INIT", 2017-07-10).)
Use designated initializers to let the compiler set up the struct and so
that we don't need to remember to call `init_grep_defaults()`.

`init_grep_defaults()` fills a `static struct grep_opt grep_defaults`.
This struct is then used by `grep_init()` as a blueprint for other such
structs. Notably, `grep_init()` takes a `struct repo *` and assigns it
into the target struct.
As a result, it is unnecessary for us to take a `struct repo *` in
`init_grep_defaults()` as well. We assign it into the default struct and
never look at it again. And in light of how we return early if we have
already set up the default struct, it's not just unnecessary, but is
also a bit confusing: If we are called twice and with different repos,
is it a bug or a feature that we ignore the second repo?
Drop the repo parameter for `init_grep_defaults()`.

make a conscious decision about whether they want their pull to merge or

This warning was clearly intended to advise users, but as pointed out in
https://lore.kernel.org/git/87ima2rdsm.fsf%40evledraar.gmail.com, it
uses `warning()` instead of `advise()`.
One consequence is that the advice is not colorized in the same manner
