Move the CPAN modules that have lived under perl/Git/FromCPAN since my
20d2a30f8f ("Makefile: replace perl/Makefile.PL with simple make
rules", 2017-12-10) to perl/FromCPAN.
A subsequent change will teach the Makefile to only install these
copies of CPAN modules if a flag that distro packagers would like to
set isn't set. Due to how the wildcard globbing is being done it's
much easier to accomplish that if they're moved to their own
directory.

Since commit 20d2a30f8f (Makefile: replace perl/Makefile.PL with
simple make rules, 2017-12-10), the Git(3pm) man page is only
generated as an indirect dependency of the 'install-doc' and
'install-man' Makefile targets. Consequently, if someone runs 'make
man && sudo make install-man' (or their 'doc' counterparts), then
Git(3pm) will be generated as root, and the resulting root-owned files
and directories will in turn cause the next user-run 'make clean' to
fail. This was not an issue in the past, because Git(3pm) was
generated when 'make all' descended into 'perl/', which is usually not
run as root.
List Git(3pm) as a dependency of the 'doc' and 'man' Makefile targets,
too, so it gets generated by targets that are usually built as
ordinary users.
While at it, add 'install-man-perl' to the list of .PHONY targets.

Sparse has, for a long time, been issuing the following warning against
the pack-revindex.c file:
SP pack-revindex.c
pack-revindex.c:64:23: warning: memset with byte count of 262144
This results from a unconditional check, with a hard-coded limit, which
is really only appropriate for the kernel source code. (The check is for
a 'large' byte count in a call to memcpy(), memset(), copy_from_user()
and copy_to_user() functions).
A recent release of sparse (v0.5.1) has introduced some options to allow
this check to be turned off (-Wno-memcpy-max-count) or to specify the
actual limit used (-fmemcpy-max-count=COUNT), rather than a hard-coded
limit of 100000.
In order to suppress the warning, add a target for pack-revindex.sp that
adds the '-Wno-memcpy-max-count' option to the SPARSE_FLAGS variable.

Tying loose ends for the recent integration work of
collision-detecting SHA-1 implementation.
* ab/dc-sha1-loose-ends:
Makefile: NO_OPENSSL=1 should no longer imply BLK_SHA1=1
PERLLIB_EXTRA was introduced in v1.9-rc0~88^2 (2013-11-15) as a way
for packagers to add additional directories such as the location of
Subversion's perl bindings to Git's perl path. Since 20d2a30f
(Makefile: replace perl/Makefile.PL with simple make rules,
2012-12-10) setting that variable breaks perl-based commands instead:
$ PATH=$HOME/opt/git/bin:$PATH
$ make install prefix=$HOME/opt/git PERLLIB_EXTRA=anextralibdir
[...]
$ head -2 $HOME/opt/git/libexec/git-core/git-add--interactive
#!/usr/bin/perl
use lib (split(/:/, $ENV{GITPERLLIB} || ":helloiamanextrainstlibdir" || "/usr/local/google/home/jrn/opt/git/share/perl5"));
$ git add -p
Empty compile time value given to use lib at /home/jrn/opt/git/libexec/git-core/git-add--interactive line 2.
Removing the spurious ":" at the beginning of ":$PERLLIB_EXTRA" avoids
the "Empty compile time value" error but with that tweak the problem
still remains: PERLLIB_EXTRA ends up replacing instead of
supplementing the perllibdir that would be passed to 'use lib' if
PERLLIB_EXTRA were not set.
The intent was to simplify, as the commit message to 20d2a30f
explains:
| The scripts themselves will 'use lib' the target directory, but if
| INSTLIBDIR is set it overrides it. It doesn't have to be this way,
| it could be set in addition to INSTLIBDIR, but my reading of
| [v1.9-rc0~88^2] is that this is the desired behavior.
Restore the previous code structure to make PERLLIB_EXTRA work again.
Reproducing this problem requires an invocation of "make install"
instead of running bin-wrappers/git in place, since the latter sets
the GITPERLLIB environment variable, avoiding trouble.

Replace the perl/Makefile.PL and the fallback perl/Makefile used under
NO_PERL_MAKEMAKER=NoThanks with a much simpler implementation heavily
inspired by how the i18n infrastructure's build process works[1].
The reason for having the Makefile.PL in the first place is that it
was initially[2] building a perl C binding to interface with libgit,
this functionality, that was removed[3] before Git.pm ever made it to
the master branch.
We've since since started maintaining a fallback perl/Makefile, as
MakeMaker wouldn't work on some platforms[4]. That's just the tip of
the iceberg. We have the PM.stamp hack in the top-level Makefile[5] to
detect whether we need to regenerate the perl/perl.mak, which I fixed
just recently to deal with issues like the perl version changing from
under us[6].
There is absolutely no reason for why this needs to be so complex
anymore. All we're getting out of this elaborate Rube Goldberg machine
was copying perl/* to perl/blib/* as we do a string-replacement on
the *.pm files to hardcode @@LOCALEDIR@@ in the source, as well as
pod2man-ing Git.pm & friends.
So replace the whole thing with something that's pretty much a copy of
how we generate po/build/**.mo from po/*.po, just with a small sed(1)
command instead of msgfmt. As that's being done rename the files
from *.pm to *.pmc just to indicate that they're generated (see
"perldoc -f require").
While I'm at it, change the fallback for Error.pm from being something
where we'll ship our own Error.pm if one doesn't exist at build time
to one where we just use a Git::Error wrapper that'll always prefer
the system-wide Error.pm, only falling back to our own copy if it
really doesn't exist at runtime. It's now shipped as
Git::FromCPAN::Error, making it easy to add other modules to
Git::FromCPAN::* in the future if that's needed.
Functional changes:
* This will not always install into perl's idea of its global
"installsitelib". This only potentially matters for packagers that
need to expose Git.pm for non-git use, and as explained in the
INSTALL file there's a trivial workaround.
* The scripts themselves will 'use lib' the target directory, but if
INSTLIBDIR is set it overrides it. It doesn't have to be this way,
it could be set in addition to INSTLIBDIR, but my reading of [7] is
that this is the desired behavior.
* We don't build man pages for all of the perl modules as we used to,
only Git(3pm). As discussed on-list[8] that we were building
installed manpages for purely internal APIs like Git::I18N or
private-Error.pm was always a bug anyway, and all the Git::SVN::*
ones say they're internal APIs.
There are apparently external users of Git.pm, but I don't expect
there to be any of the others.
As a side-effect of these general changes the perl documentation
now only installed by install-{doc,man}, not a mere "install" as
before.

Include the sha1collisiondetection submodule when running "make

downloading git as a tarball would just get an empty

Doing this automatically is a feature that's missing from git-archive,
but in the meantime let's bundle this up into the tarball we
ship. This ensures that the DC_SHA1_SUBMODULE flag does what's
intended even in an unpacked tarball, and more importantly means we're
building the exact same code from the same paths from git.git and from
the tarball.
I am not including all the files in the submodule, only the ones git
actually needs (and the licenses), only including some files like this
would be a useful feature if git-archive ever adds the ability to
bundle up submodules.

Fix a logic error in the initial introduction of DC_SHA1_EXTERNAL. If
git.git has a sha1collisiondetection submodule checked out the logic
to set DC_SHA1_SUBMODULE=auto would interact badly with the check for
whether DC_SHA1_SUBMODULE was set.
It would error out, meaning that there's no way to build git with
DC_SHA1_EXTERNAL=YesPlease without deinit-ing the submodule.
Instead, adjust the logic to only fire if the variable is to something
else than "auto" which would mean it's a mistake on the part of
whoever's building git, not just the Makefile tripping over its own
logic.

You may want to run the test suite with a different shell
than you use to build Git. For instance, you may build with
SHELL_PATH=/bin/sh (because it's faster, or it's what you
expect to exist on systems where the build will be used) but
want to run the test suite with bash (e.g., since that
allows using "-x" reliably across the whole test suite).
There's currently no good way to do this.
You might think that doing two separate make invocations,
like:
make &&
make -C t SHELL_PATH=/bin/bash
would work. And it _almost_ does. The second make will see
our bash SHELL_PATH, and we'll use that to run the
individual test scripts (or tell prove to use it to do so).
So far so good.
But this breaks down when "--tee" or "--verbose-log" is
used. Those options cause the test script to actually
re-exec itself using $SHELL_PATH. But wait, wouldn't our
second make invocation have set SHELL_PATH correctly in the
environment?
Yes, but test-lib.sh sources GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS, which we
built during the first "make". And that overrides the
environment, giving us the original SHELL_PATH again.
Let's introduce a new variable that lets you specify a
specific shell to be run for the test scripts. Note that we
have to touch both the main and t/ Makefiles, since we have
to record it in GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS in one, and use it in the
latter.

Introduce fetch-object, providing the ability to fetch one object from a
promisor remote.
This uses fetch-pack. To do this, the transport mechanism has been
updated with 2 flags, "from-promisor" to indicate that the resulting
pack comes from a promisor remote (and thus should be annotated as such
by index-pack), and "no-dependents" to indicate that only the objects
themselves need to be fetched (but fetching additional objects is
nevertheless safe).
Whenever "no-dependents" is used, fetch-pack will refrain from using any
object flags, because it is most likely invoked as part of a dynamic
object fetch by another Git command (which may itself use object flags).
An alternative to this is to leave fetch-pack alone, and instead update
the allocation of flags so that fetch-pack's flags never overlap with
any others, but this will end up shrinking the number of flags available
to nearly every other Git command (that is, every Git command that
accesses objects), so the approach in this commit was used instead.
This will be tested in a subsequent commit.

Add a test utility (test-drop-caches) that flushes all changes to disk
then drops file system cache on Windows, Linux, and OSX.
Add a perf test (p7519-fsmonitor.sh) for fsmonitor.
By default, the performance test will utilize the Watchman file system
monitor if it is installed. If Watchman is not installed, it will use a
dummy integration script that does not report any new or modified files.
The dummy script has very little overhead which provides optimistic results.
The performance test will also use the untracked cache feature if it is
available as fsmonitor uses it to speed up scanning for untracked files.
There are 4 environment variables that can be used to alter the default
behavior of the performance test:
GIT_PERF_7519_UNTRACKED_CACHE: used to configure core.untrackedCache
GIT_PERF_7519_SPLIT_INDEX: used to configure core.splitIndex
GIT_PERF_7519_FSMONITOR: used to configure core.fsmonitor
GIT_PERF_7519_DROP_CACHE: if set, the OS caches are dropped between tests
The big win for using fsmonitor is the elimination of the need to scan the
working directory looking for changed and untracked files. If the file
information is all cached in RAM, the benefits are reduced.

When the index is read from disk, the fsmonitor index extension is used
to flag the last known potentially dirty index entries. The registered
core.fsmonitor command is called with the time the index was last
updated and returns the list of files changed since that time. This list
is used to flag any additional dirty cache entries and untracked cache
directories.
We can then use this valid state to speed up preload_index(),
ie_match_stat(), and refresh_cache_ent() as they do not need to lstat()
files to detect potential changes for those entries marked
CE_FSMONITOR_VALID.
In addition, if the untracked cache is turned on valid_cached_dir() can
skip checking directories for new or changed files as fsmonitor will
invalidate the cache only for those directories that have been
identified as having potential changes.
To keep the CE_FSMONITOR_VALID state accurate during git operations;
when git updates a cache entry to match the current state on disk,
it will now set the CE_FSMONITOR_VALID bit.
Inversely, anytime git changes a cache entry, the CE_FSMONITOR_VALID bit
is cleared and the corresponding untracked cache directory is marked
invalid.

This is similar to using the hashmap in hashmap.c, but with an
easier-to-use API. In particular, custom entry comparisons no longer
need to be written, and lookups can be done without constructing a
temporary entry structure.
This is implemented as a thin wrapper over the hashmap API. In
particular, this means that there is an additional 4-byte overhead due
to the fact that the first 4 bytes of the hash is redundantly stored.

Keep a copy of the `packed-refs` file contents in memory for as long
as a `packed_ref_cache` object is in use:
* If the system allows it, keep the `packed-refs` file mmapped.
* If not (either because the system doesn't support `mmap()` at all,
or because a file that is currently mmapped cannot be replaced via
`rename()`), then make a copy of the file's contents in
heap-allocated space, and keep that around instead.
We base the choice of behavior on a new build-time switch,
`MMAP_PREVENTS_DELETE`. By default, this switch is set for Windows
variants.
After this commit, `MMAP_NONE` and `MMAP_TEMPORARY` are still handled
identically. But the next commit will introduce a difference.
This whole change is still pointless, because we only read the
`packed-refs` file contents immediately after instantiating the
`packed_ref_cache`. But that will soon change.

Many of our programs consider that it is OK to release dynamic
storage that is used throughout the life of the program by simply
exiting, but this makes it harder to leak detection tools to avoid
reporting false positives. Plug many existing leaks and introduce
a mechanism for developers to mark that the region of memory
pointed by a pointer is not lost/leaking to help these tools.

It's a common pattern in git commands to allocate some
memory that should last for the lifetime of the program and
then not bother to free it, relying on the OS to throw it
away.
This keeps the code simple, and it's fast (we don't waste
time traversing structures or calling free at the end of the
program). But it also triggers warnings from memory-leak
checkers like valgrind or LSAN. They know that the memory
was still allocated at program exit, but they don't know
_when_ the leaked memory stopped being useful. If it was
early in the program, then it's probably a real and
important leak. But if it was used right up until program
exit, it's not an interesting leak and we'd like to suppress
it so that we can see the real leaks.
This patch introduces an UNLEAK() macro that lets us do so.
To understand its design, let's first look at some of the
alternatives.
Unfortunately the suppression systems offered by
leak-checking tools don't quite do what we want. A
leak-checker basically knows two things:
1. Which blocks were allocated via malloc, and the
callstack during the allocation.
2. Which blocks were left un-freed at the end of the
program (and which are unreachable, but more on that
later).
Their suppressions work by mentioning the function or
callstack of a particular allocation, and marking it as OK
to leak. So imagine you have code like this:
int cmd_foo(...)
{
/* this allocates some memory */
char *p = some_function();
printf("%s", p);
return 0;
}
You can say "ignore allocations from some_function(),
they're not leaks". But that's not right. That function may
be called elsewhere, too, and we would potentially want to
know about those leaks.
So you can say "ignore the callstack when main calls
some_function". That works, but your annotations are
brittle. In this case it's only two functions, but you can
imagine that the actual allocation is much deeper. If any of
the intermediate code changes, you have to update the
suppression.
What we _really_ want to say is that "the value assigned to
p at the end of the function is not a real leak". But
leak-checkers can't understand that; they don't know about
"p" in the first place.
However, we can do something a little bit tricky if we make
some assumptions about how leak-checkers work. They
generally don't just report all un-freed blocks. That would
report even globals which are still accessible when the
leak-check is run. Instead they take some set of memory
(like BSS) as a root and mark it as "reachable". Then they
scan the reachable blocks for anything that looks like a
pointer to a malloc'd block, and consider that block
reachable. And then they scan those blocks, and so on,
transitively marking anything reachable from a global as
"not leaked" (or at least leaked in a different category).
So we can mark the value of "p" as reachable by putting it
into a variable with program lifetime. One way to do that is
to just mark "p" as static. But that actually affects the
run-time behavior if the function is called twice (you
aren't likely to call main() twice, but some of our cmd_*()
functions are called from other commands).
Instead, we can trick the leak-checker by putting the value
into _any_ reachable bytes. This patch keeps a global
linked-list of bytes copied from "unleaked" variables. That
list is reachable even at program exit, which confers
recursive reachability on whatever values we unleak.
In other words, you can do:
int cmd_foo(...)
{
char *p = some_function();
printf("%s", p);
UNLEAK(p);
return 0;
}
to annotate "p" and suppress the leak report.
But wait, couldn't we just say "free(p)"? In this toy
example, yes. But UNLEAK()'s byte-copying strategy has
several advantages over actually freeing the memory:
1. It's recursive across structures. In many cases our "p"
is not just a pointer, but a complex struct whose
fields may have been allocated by a sub-function. And
in some cases (e.g., dir_struct) we don't even have a
function which knows how to free all of the struct
members.
By marking the struct itself as reachable, that confers
reachability on any pointers it contains (including those
found in embedded structs, or reachable by walking
heap blocks recursively.
2. It works on cases where we're not sure if the value is
allocated or not. For example:
char *p = argc > 1 ? argv[1] : some_function();
It's safe to use UNLEAK(p) here, because it's not
freeing any memory. In the case that we're pointing to
argv here, the reachability checker will just ignore
our bytes.
3. Likewise, it works even if the variable has _already_
been freed. We're just copying the pointer bytes. If
the block has been freed, the leak-checker will skip
over those bytes as uninteresting.
4. Because it's not actually freeing memory, you can
UNLEAK() before we are finished accessing the variable.
This is helpful in cases like this:
char *p = some_function();
return another_function(p);
Writing this with free() requires:
int ret;
char *p = some_function();
ret = another_function(p);
free(p);
return ret;
But with unleak we can just write:
char *p = some_function();
UNLEAK(p);
return another_function(p);
This patch adds the UNLEAK() macro and enables it
automatically when Git is compiled with SANITIZE=leak. In
normal builds it's a noop, so we pay no runtime cost.
It also adds some UNLEAK() annotations to show off how the
feature works. On top of other recent leak fixes, these are
enough to get t0000 and t0001 to pass when compiled with
LSAN.
Note the case in commit.c which actually converts a
strbuf_release() into an UNLEAK. This code was already
non-leaky, but the free didn't do anything useful, since
we're exiting. Converting it to an annotation means that
non-leak-checking builds pay no runtime cost. The cost is
minimal enough that it's probably not worth going on a
crusade to convert these kinds of frees to UNLEAKS. I did it
here for consistency with the "sb" leak (though it would
have been equally correct to go the other way, and turn them
both into strbuf_release() calls).

These used to be for manipulating the in-memory repo_tree structure,
but nowadays they are convenience wrappers to handle a few git-vs-svn
mismatches:
1. Git does not track empty directories but Subversion does. When
looking up a path in git that Subversion thinks exists and finding
nothing, we can safely assume that the path represents a
directory. This is needed when a later Subversion revision
modifies that directory.
2. Subversion allows deleting a file by copying. In Git fast-import
we have to handle that more explicitly as a deletion.
These are details of the tool's interaction with git fast-import.
Move them to fast_export.c, where other such details are handled.
This way the function names do not start with a repo_ prefix that
would clash with the repository object introduced in
v2.14.0-rc0~38^2~16 (repository: introduce the repository object,
2017-06-22) or an svn_ prefix that would clash with libsvn (in case

- sha1dc_git.h is the common header to include further sha1.h

- Move comments for plumbing codes from the header to definitions

We started using our own timestamp_t type and PRItime format
specifier to go along with it, so that we can later change the
underlying type and output format more easily, but this does not
play well with gettext tools.
Because gettext tools need to keep the *.po file portable across
platforms, they have to special-case the format specifiers like
PRIuMAX that are known types in inttypes.h, instead of letting CPP
handle strings like
"%" PRIuMAX " seconds ago"
as an ordinary string concatenation. They fundamentally cannot do
the same for our own custom type/format.
Given that po/git.pot needs to be generated only once every release
and by only one person, i.e. the l10n coordinator, let's update the
Makefile rule to generate po/git.pot so that gettext tools are run
on a munged set of sources in which all mentions of PRItime are
replaced with PRIuMAX, which is what we happen to use right now.
This way, developers do not have to care that PRItime does not play
well with gettext, and translators do not have to care that we use
our own PRItime.
The credit for the idea to munge the source files goes to Dscho.
Possible bugs are mine.

1. It's a little long to type.
2. It override your CFLAGS completely. You'd probably
still want -O2, for instance.
3. It's a good idea to also turn off "recovery", which
lets the program keep running after a problem is
detected (with the intention of finding as many bugs as
possible in a given run). Since Git's test suite should
generally run without triggering any problems, it's
better to abort immediately and fail the test when we
do find an issue.

Some of the benefits of object-ifying a repository are:
1. Make the code base more readable and easier to reason about.
2. Allow for working on multiple repositories, specifically
submodules, within the same process. Currently the process for
working on a submodule involves setting up an argv_array of options
for a particular command and then launching a child process to
execute the command in the context of the submodule. This is
clunky and can require lots of little hacks in order to ensure
correctness. Ideally it would be nice to simply pass a repository
and an options struct to a command.
3. Eliminating reliance on global state will make it easier to

We added an FREAD_READS_DIRECTORIES Makefile knob long ago
in cba22528f (Add compat/fopen.c which returns NULL on
attempt to open directory, 2008-02-08) to handle systems
where reading from a directory returned garbage. This works
by catching the problem at the fopen() stage and returning
NULL.
More recently, we found that there is a class of systems
(including Linux) where fopen() succeeds but fread() fails.
Since the solution is the same (having fopen return NULL),
they use the same Makefile knob as of e2d90fd1c
(config.mak.uname: set FREAD_READS_DIRECTORIES for Linux and
FreeBSD, 2017-05-03).
This works fine except for one thing: the autoconf test in
configure.ac to set FREAD_READS_DIRECTORIES actually checks
whether fread succeeds. Which means that on Linux systems,
the knob isn't set (and we even override the config.mak.uname
default). t1308 catches the failure.
We can fix this by tweaking the autoconf test to cover both
cases. In theory we might care about the distinction between
the traditional "fread reads directories" case and the new
"fopen opens directories". But since our solution catches
the problem at the fopen stage either way, we don't actually
need to know the difference. The "fopen" case is a superset.
This does mean the FREAD_READS_DIRECTORIES name is slightly
misleading. Probably FOPEN_OPENS_DIRECTORIES would be more
accurate. But it would be disruptive to simply change the
name (people's existing build configs would fail), and it's
not worth the complexity of handling both. Let's just add a
comment in the knob description.

Add support for v2 of the PCRE API. This is a new major version of
PCRE that came out in early 2015[1].
The regular expression syntax is the same, but while the API is
similar, pretty much every function is either renamed or takes
different arguments. Thus using it via entirely new functions makes
sense, as opposed to trying to e.g. have one compile_pcre_pattern()
that would call either PCRE v1 or v2 functions.
Git can now be compiled with either USE_LIBPCRE1=YesPlease or
USE_LIBPCRE2=YesPlease, with USE_LIBPCRE=YesPlease currently being a
synonym for the former. Providing both is a compile-time error.
With earlier patches to enable JIT for PCRE v1 the performance of the
release versions of both libraries is almost exactly the same, with
PCRE v2 being around 1% slower.
However after I reported this to the pcre-dev mailing list[2] I got a
lot of help with the API use from Zoltán Herczeg, he subsequently
optimized some of the JIT functionality in v2 of the library.

I.e. the two are either neck-to-neck, but PCRE v2 usually pulls ahead,
when it does it's around 20% faster.
A brief note on thread safety: As noted in pcre2api(3) & pcre2jit(3)
the compiled pattern can be shared between threads, but not some of
the JIT context, however the grep threading support does all pattern &
JIT compilation in separate threads, so this code doesn't need to
concern itself with thread safety.
See commit 63e7e9d8b6 ("git-grep: Learn PCRE", 2011-05-09) for the
initial addition of PCRE v1. This change follows some of the same
patterns it did (and which were discussed on list at the time),
e.g. mocking up types with typedef instead of ifdef-ing them out when
USE_LIBPCRE2 isn't defined. This adds some trivial memory use to the
program, but makes the code look nicer.

Amend my change earlier in this series ("grep: add support for the
PCRE v1 JIT API", 2017-04-11) to un-break the build on PCRE v1
versions later than 8.31 compiled without --enable-jit.
As explained in that change and a later compatibility change in this
series ("grep: un-break building with PCRE < 8.32", 2017-05-10) the
pcre_jit_exec() function is a faster path to execute the JIT.
Unfortunately there's no compatibility stub for that function compiled
into the library if pcre_config(PCRE_CONFIG_JIT, &ret) would return 0,
and no macro that can be used to check for it, so the only portable
option to support builds without --enable-jit is via a new
NO_LIBPCRE1_JIT=UnfortunatelyYes Makefile option[1].
Another option would be to make the JIT opt-in via
USE_LIBPCRE1_JIT=YesPlease, after all it's not a default option of
PCRE v1.
I think it makes more sense to make it opt-out since even though it's
not a default option, most packagers of PCRE seem to turn it on by
default, with the notable exception of the MinGW package.
Make the MinGW platform work by default by changing the build defaults
to turn on NO_LIBPCRE1_JIT=UnfortunatelyYes. It is the only platform
that turns on USE_LIBPCRE=YesPlease by default, see commit
df5218b4c3 ("config.mak.uname: support MSys2", 2016-01-13) for that
change.

Change the internal USE_LIBPCRE define, & build options flag to use a
naming convention ending in PCRE1, without changing the long-standing
USE_LIBPCRE Makefile flag which enables this code.
This is for preparation for libpcre2 support where having things like
USE_LIBPCRE and USE_LIBPCRE2 in any more places than we absolutely
need to for backwards compatibility with old Makefile arguments would
be confusing.
In some ways it would be better to change everything that now uses
USE_LIBPCRE to use USE_LIBPCRE1, and to make specifying
USE_LIBPCRE (or --with-pcre) an error. This would impose a one-time
burden on packagers of git to s/USE_LIBPCRE/USE_LIBPCRE1/ in their
build scripts.
However I'd like to leave the door open to making
USE_LIBPCRE=YesPlease eventually mean USE_LIBPCRE2=YesPlease,
i.e. once PCRE v2 is ubiquitous enough that it makes sense to make it
the default.
This code and the USE_LIBPCRE Makefile argument was added in commit
63e7e9d8b6 ("git-grep: Learn PCRE", 2011-05-09). At the time there was
no indication that the PCRE project would release an entirely new &
incompatible API around 3 years later.

This means that the code customizations done since the initial import

Add a git GIT_PERF_MAKE_COMMAND variable to compliment the existing
GIT_PERF_MAKE_OPTS facility. This allows specifying an arbitrary shell
command to execute instead of 'make'.
This is useful e.g. in cases where the name, semantics or defaults of
a Makefile flag have changed over time. It can even be used to change
the contents of the tree, useful for monkeypatching ancient versions
of git to get them to build.
This opens Pandora's box in some ways, it's now possible to
"jailbreak" the perf environment and e.g. modify the source tree via
this arbitrary instead of just issuing a custom "make" command, such a
command has to be re-entrant in the sense that subsequent perf runs
will re-use the possibly modified tree.
It would be pointless to try to mitigate or work around that caveat in
a tool purely aimed at Git developers, so this change makes no attempt
to do so.

Reword an outdated & inaccurate comment which suggests that only
git-grep can use PCRE.
This comment was added back when PCRE support was initially added in
commit 63e7e9d8b6 ("git-grep: Learn PCRE", 2011-05-09), and was true
at the time.
It hasn't been telling the full truth since git-log learned to use
PCRE with --grep in commit 727b6fc3ed ("log --grep: accept
--basic-regexp and --perl-regexp", 2012-10-03), and more importantly
is likely to get more inaccurate over time as more use is made of PCRE
in other areas.
Reword it to be more future-proof, and to more clearly explain that
this enables user-initiated runtime behavior.
Copy/pasting this so much in configure.ac is lame, these Makefile-like
flags aren't even used by autoconf, just the corresponding
--with[out]-* options. But copy/pasting the comments that make sense
for the Makefile to configure.ac where they make less sense is the
pattern everything else follows in that file. I'm not going to war
against that as part of this change, just following the existing
pattern.

Change the perl/perl.mak build process so that the file is regenerated
if the output of "perl -V" changes.
Before this change updating e.g. /usr/bin/perl to a new major version
would cause the next "make" command to fail, since perl.mak has
hardcoded paths to perl library paths retrieved from its first run.
Now the logic added in commit ee9be06770 ("perl: detect new files in
MakeMaker builds", 2012-07-27) is extended to regenerate
perl/perl.mak if there's any change to "perl -V".
This will in some cases redundantly trigger perl/perl.mak to be
re-made, e.g. if @INC is modified in ways the build process doesn't
care about through sitecustomize.pl, but the common case is that we
just do the right thing and re-generate perl/perl.mak when needed.

The "make coccicheck" target runs spatch against each source
file. But it does so in a for loop, so "make" never sees the
exit code of spatch. Worse, it redirects stderr to a log
file, so the user has no indication of any failure. And then
to top it all off, because we touched the patch file's
mtime, make will refuse to repeat the command because it
think the target is up-to-date.
So for example:
$ make coccicheck SPATCH=does-not-exist
SPATCH contrib/coccinelle/free.cocci
SPATCH contrib/coccinelle/qsort.cocci
SPATCH contrib/coccinelle/xstrdup_or_null.cocci
SPATCH contrib/coccinelle/swap.cocci
SPATCH contrib/coccinelle/strbuf.cocci
SPATCH contrib/coccinelle/object_id.cocci
SPATCH contrib/coccinelle/array.cocci
$ make coccicheck SPATCH=does-not-exist
make: Nothing to be done for 'coccicheck'.
With this patch, you get:
$ make coccicheck SPATCH=does-not-exist
SPATCH contrib/coccinelle/free.cocci
/bin/sh: 4: does-not-exist: not found
Makefile:2338: recipe for target 'contrib/coccinelle/free.cocci.patch' failed
make: *** [contrib/coccinelle/free.cocci.patch] Error 1
It also dumps the log on failure, so any errors from spatch
itself (like syntax errors in our .cocci files) will be seen
by the user.

For example, passing "-a 4000" will set "istate.cache_nr"
to 4000 and then try the multi-threaded code -- probably
giving 2 threads with 2000 entries each. It will then
run both the single-threaded (1x4000) and the multi-threaded
(2x2000) and compare the times. It will then repeat the
test with 8000, 12000, and etc. so that you can see the

We don't actually have a Git-object collision, so the best
we can do is to run one of the shattered PDFs through
test-sha1. This should trigger the collision check and die.

already. But it at least makes sure that our build correctly

This knob lets you use the sha1dc implementation from:
https://github.com/cr-marcstevens/sha1collisiondetection
which can detect certain types of collision attacks (even
when we only see half of the colliding pair). So it
mitigates any attack which consists of getting the "good"
half of a collision into a trusted repository, and then
later replacing it with the "bad" half. The "good" half is
rejected by the victim's version of Git (and even if they
run an old version of Git, any sha1dc-enabled git will
complain loudly if it ever has to interact with the object).
The big downside is that it's slower than either the openssl
or block-sha1 implementations.
Here are some timings based off of linux.git:
- compute sha1 over whole packfile
sha1dc: 3.580s
blk-sha1: 2.046s (-43%)
openssl: 1.335s (-62%)
- rev-list --all --objects
sha1dc: 33.512s
blk-sha1: 33.514s (+0.0%)
openssl: 33.650s (+0.4%)
- git log --no-merges -10000 -p
sha1dc: 8.124s
blk-sha1: 7.986s (-1.6%)
openssl: 8.203s (+0.9%)
- index-pack --verify
sha1dc: 4m19s
blk-sha1: 2m57s (-32%)
openssl: 2m19s (-42%)
So overall the sha1 computation with collision detection is
about 1.75x slower than block-sha1, and 2.7x slower than
sha1. But of course most operations do more than just sha1.
Normal object access isn't really slowed at all (both the
+/- changes there are well within the run-to-run noise); any
changes are drowned out by the other work Git is doing.
The most-affected operation is `index-pack --verify`, which
is essentially just computing the sha1 on every object. This
is similar to the `index-pack` invocation that the receiver
of a push or fetch would perform. So clearly there's some
extra CPU load here.
There will also be some latency for the user, though keep in
mind that such an operation will generally be network bound
(this is about a 1.2GB packfile). Some of that extra CPU is
"free" in the sense that we use it while the pack is
streaming in anyway. But most of it comes during the
delta-resolution phase, after the whole pack has been
received. So we can imagine that for this (quite large)
push, the user might have to wait an extra 100 seconds over
openssl (which is what we use now). If we assume they can
push to us at 20Mbit/s, that's 480s for a 1.2GB pack, which
is only 20% slower.

Many developers use functionality in their editors that allows for quick
syntax checks, including warning about questionable constructs. This
functionality allows rapid development with fewer errors. However, such
functionality generally does not allow the specification of
project-specific defines or command-line options.
Since the SHA1_HEADER include is not defined in such a case,
developers see spurious errors when using these tools. Furthermore,
there are known implementations of "cc" whose '#include' is unhappy
with this construct.
Instead of using SHA1_HEADER, create a hash.h header and use #if
and #elif to select the desired header. Have the Makefile pass an
appropriate option to help the header select the right implementation to
use.

"git rebase -i" starts using the recently updated "sequencer" code.
* js/rebase-helper:
rebase -i: use the rebase--helper builtin
rebase--helper: add a builtin helper for interactive rebases
Git's interactive rebase is still implemented as a shell script, despite
its complexity. This implies that it suffers from the portability point
of view, from lack of expressibility, and of course also from
performance. The latter issue is particularly serious on Windows, where
we pay a hefty price for relying so much on POSIX.
Unfortunately, being such a huge shell script also means that we missed
the train when it would have been relatively easy to port it to C, and
instead piled feature upon feature onto that poor script that originally
never intended to be more than a slightly pimped cherry-pick in a loop.
To open the road toward better performance (in addition to all the other
benefits of C over shell scripts), let's just start *somewhere*.
The approach taken here is to add a builtin helper that at first intends
to take care of the parts of the interactive rebase that are most
affected by the performance penalties mentioned above.
In particular, after we spent all those efforts on preparing the sequencer
to process rebase -i's git-rebase-todo scripts, we implement the `git
rebase -i --continue` functionality as a new builtin, git-rebase--helper.
Once that is in place, we can work gradually on tackling the rest of the
technical debt.
Note that the rebase--helper needs to learn about the transient
--ff/--no-ff options of git-rebase, as the corresponding flag is not
persisted to, and re-read from, the state directory.

This is similar to many of our uses of sha1-array, but it
overcomes one limitation of a sha1-array: when you are
de-duplicating a large input with relatively few unique
entries, sha1-array uses 20 bytes per non-unique entry.
Whereas this set will use memory linear in the number of
unique entries (albeit a few more than 20 bytes due to
hashmap overhead).

The function qsort_s() was introduced with C11 Annex K; it provides the
ability to pass a context pointer to the comparison function, supports
the convention of using a NULL pointer for an empty array and performs a
few safety checks.
Add an implementation based on compat/qsort.c for platforms that lack a
native standards-compliant qsort_s() (i.e. basically everyone). It
doesn't perform the full range of possible checks: It uses size_t
instead of rsize_t and doesn't check nmemb and size against RSIZE_MAX
because we probably don't have the restricted size type defined. For
the same reason it returns int instead of errno_t.

The xdiff code hashes every line of both sides of a diff,
and then compares those hashes to find duplicates. The
overall performance depends both on how fast we can compute
the hashes, but also on how many hash collisions we see.
The idea of XDL_FAST_HASH is to speed up the hash
computation. But the generated hashes have worse collision
behavior. This means that in some cases it speeds diffs up
(running "git log -p" on git.git improves by ~8% with it),
but in others it can slow things down. One pathological case
saw over a 100x slowdown[1].
There may be a better hash function that covers both
properties, but in the meantime we are better off with the
original hash. It's slightly slower in the common case, but
it has fewer surprising pathological cases.

In order for the receiving end of "git push" to inspect the
received history and decide to reject the push, the objects sent
from the sending end need to be made available to the hook and
the mechanism for the connectivity check, and this was done
traditionally by storing the objects in the receiving repository
and letting "git gc" to expire it. Instead, store the newly
received objects in a temporary area, and make them available by
reusing the alternate object store mechanism to them only while we
decide if we accept the check, and once we decide, either migrate
them to the repository or purge them immediately.

they cannot easily be deleted, as we don't know what other
processes may have started referencing them. We have to
clean them up with git-gc, which will apply the usual
reachability and grace-period checks.
This patch provides an alternative: it helps callers create
a temporary directory inside the object directory, and a
temporary environment which can be passed to sub-programs to
ask them to write there (the original object directory
remains accessible as an alternate of the temporary one).
See tmp-objdir.h for details on the API.

We just introduced a test that demonstrates that our sloppy use of
regexec() on a mmap()ed area can result in incorrect results or even
hard crashes.
So what we need to fix this is a function that calls regexec() on a
length-delimited, rather than a NUL-terminated, string.
Happily, there is an extension to regexec() introduced by the NetBSD
project and present in all major regex implementation including
Linux', MacOSX' and the one Git includes in compat/regex/: by using
the (non-POSIX) REG_STARTEND flag, it is possible to tell the
regexec() function that it should only look at the offsets between
pmatch[0].rm_so and pmatch[0].rm_eo.
That is exactly what we need.
Since support for REG_STARTEND is so widespread by now, let's just
introduce a helper function that always uses it, and tell people
on a platform whose regex library does not support it to use the
one from our compat/regex/ directory.

There are a few places in Git that would benefit from a fast
most-recently-used cache (e.g., the list of packs, which we
search linearly but would like to order based on locality).
This patch introduces a generic list that can be used to
store arbitrary pointers in most-recently-used order.
The implementation is just a doubly-linked list, where
"marking" an item as used moves it to the front of the list.
Insertion and marking are O(1), and iteration is O(n).
There's no lookup support provided; if you need fast
lookups, you are better off with a different data structure
in the first place.
There is also no deletion support. This would not be hard to
do, but it's not necessary for handling pack structs, which
are created and never removed.

We unconditionally link with librt, when HAVE_CLOCK_GETTIME is defined.
But clock_gettime() has been available in most libc implementations for
some time now (e.g., for glibc since version 2.17) and no longer
requires linking with librt. Furthermore, commit a6c3c63 (configure.ac:
check for clock_gettime() and CLOCK_MONOTONIC) will automatically
determined which library (libc or librt) is required for linking when
checking for clock_gettime().
The assumption to unconditionally link with librt was OK, since either
almost every Unix-like system provides a version of librt for backwards
compatibility or other systems, namely Windows or OS X, never provided
clock_gettime(). However, in the latest release of OS X (macOS Sierra),
this function has been added to OS X libc version. As a result, when
running the configuration script, HAVE_CLOCK_GETTIME is set and since
librt is not present, it causes a linker error.
This patches requires those not building via the configuration scripts
to define NEEDS_LIBRT in addition to HAVE_CLOCK_GETTIME, if needed.

A few test-helpers have Makefile dependencies on specific
object files. But since these files are part of libgit.a
(which all of the helpers link against), the inclusion is
simply redundant.
These were once necessary, but became redundant due to
5c5ba73 (Makefile: Use generic rule to build test programs,
2007-05-31), which added the $(GITLIBS) dependency (but
didn't prune the extra dependency lines). Later commits then
cargo-culted the practice (e.g., b4285c7).
Note that we _do_ need to leave the dependencies on the svn
library, as that is not part of the usual link command.

There are certain startup tasks that we expect every git
process to do. In some cases this is just to improve the
quality of the program (e.g., setting up gettext()). In
others it is a requirement for using certain functions in
libgit.a (e.g., system_path() expects that you have called
git_extract_argv0_path()).
Most commands are builtins and are covered by the git.c
version of main(). However, there are still a few external
commands that use their own main(). Each of these has to
remember to include the correct startup sequence, and we are
not always consistent.
Rather than just fix the inconsistencies, let's make this
harder to get wrong by providing a common main() that can
run this standard startup.
We basically have two options to do this:
- the compat/mingw.h file already does something like this by
adding a #define that replaces the definition of main with a
wrapper that calls mingw_startup().
The upside is that the code in each program doesn't need
to be changed at all; it's rewritten on the fly by the
preprocessor.
The downside is that it may make debugging of the startup
sequence a bit more confusing, as the preprocessor is
quietly inserting new code.
- the builtin functions are all of the form cmd_foo(),
and git.c's main() calls them.
This is much more explicit, which may make things more
obvious to somebody reading the code. It's also more
flexible (because of course we have to figure out _which_
cmd_foo() to call).
The downside is that each of the builtins must define
cmd_foo(), instead of just main().
This patch chooses the latter option, preferring the more
explicit approach, even though it is more invasive. We
introduce a new file common-main.c, with the "real" main. It
expects to call cmd_main() from whatever other objects it is
linked against.
We link common-main.o against anything that links against
libgit.a, since we know that such programs will need to do
this setup. Note that common-main.o can't actually go inside
libgit.a, as the linker would not pick up its main()
function automatically (it has no callers).
The rest of the patch is just adjusting all of the various
external programs (mostly in t/helper) to use cmd_main().
I've provided a global declaration for cmd_main(), which
means that all of the programs also need to match its
signature. In particular, many functions need to switch to
"const char **" instead of "char **" for argv. This effect
ripples out to a few other variables and functions, as well.
This makes the patch even more invasive, but the end result
is much better. We should be treating argv strings as const
anyway, and now all programs conform to the same signature
(which also matches the way builtins are defined).

The iterator interface is modeled on that for references, though no
vtable is necessary because there is (so far?) only one type of
dir_iterator.
There are obviously a lot of features that could easily be added to this
class:
* Skip/include directory paths in the iteration
* Shallow/deep iteration
* Letting the caller decide which subdirectories to recurse into (e.g.,
via a dir_iterator_advance_into() function)
* Option to iterate in sorted order
* Option to iterate over directory paths before vs. after their contents
But these are not needed for the current patch series, so I refrain.

Currently, the API for iterating over references is via a family of
for_each_ref()-type functions that invoke a callback function for each
selected reference. All of these eventually call do_for_each_ref(),
which knows how to do one thing: iterate in parallel through two
ref_caches, one for loose and one for packed refs, giving loose
references precedence over packed refs. This is rather complicated code,
and is quite specialized to the files backend. It also requires callers
to encapsulate their work into a callback function, which often means
that they have to define and use a "cb_data" struct to manage their
context.
The current design is already bursting at the seams, and will become
even more awkward in the upcoming world of multiple reference storage
backends:
* Per-worktree vs. shared references are currently handled via a kludge
in git_path() rather than iterating over each part of the reference
namespace separately and merging the results. This kludge will cease
to work when we have multiple reference storage backends.
* The current scheme is inflexible. What if we sometimes want to bypass
the ref_cache, or use it only for packed or only for loose refs? What
if we want to store symbolic refs in one type of storage backend and
non-symbolic ones in another?
In the future, each reference backend will need to define its own way of
iterating over references. The crux of the problem with the current
design is that it is impossible to compose for_each_ref()-style
iterations, because the flow of control is owned by the for_each_ref()
function. There is nothing that a caller can do but iterate through all
references in a single burst, so there is no way for it to interleave
references from multiple backends and present the result to the rest of
the world as a single compound backend.
This commit introduces a new iteration primitive for references: a
ref_iterator. A ref_iterator is a polymorphic object that a reference
storage backend can be asked to instantiate. There are three functions
that can be applied to a ref_iterator:
* ref_iterator_advance(): move to the next reference in the iteration
* ref_iterator_abort(): end the iteration before it is exhausted
* ref_iterator_peel(): peel the reference currently being looked at
Iterating using a ref_iterator leaves the flow of control in the hands
of the caller, which means that ref_iterators from multiple
sources (e.g., loose and packed refs) can be composed and presented to
the world as a single compound ref_iterator.
It also means that the backend code for implementing reference iteration
will sometimes be more complicated. For example, the
cache_ref_iterator (which iterates over a ref_cache) can't use the C
stack to recurse; instead, it must manage its own stack internally as
explicit data structures. There is also a lot of boilerplate connected
with object-oriented programming in C.
Eventually, end-user callers will be able to be written in a more
natural way—managing their own flow of control rather than having to
work via callbacks. Since there will only be a few reference backends
but there are many consumers of this API, this is a good tradeoff.
More importantly, we gain composability, and especially the possibility
of writing interchangeable parts that can work with any ref_iterator.
For example, merge_ref_iterator implements a generic way of merging the
contents of any two ref_iterators. It is used to merge loose + packed
refs as part of the implementation of the files_ref_iterator. But it
will also be possible to use it to merge other pairs of reference
sources (e.g., per-worktree vs. shared refs).
Another example is prefix_ref_iterator, which can be used to trim a
prefix off the front of reference names before presenting them to the
caller (e.g., "refs/heads/master" -> "master").
In this patch, we introduce the iterator abstraction and many utilities,
and implement a reference iterator for the files ref storage backend.
(I've written several other obvious utilities, for example a generic way
to filter references being iterated over. These will probably be useful
in the future. But they are not needed for this patch series, so I am
not including them at this time.)
In a moment we will rewrite do_for_each_ref() to work via reference
iterators (allowing some special-purpose code to be discarded), and do
something similar for reflogs. In future patch series, we will expose
the ref_iterator abstraction in the public refs API so that callers can
use it directly.
Implementation note: I tried abstracting this a layer further to allow
generic iterators (over arbitrary types of objects) and generic
utilities like a generic merge_iterator. But the implementation in C was
very cumbersome, involving (in my opinion) too much boilerplate and too
much unsafe casting, some of which would have had to be done on the
caller side. However, I did put a few iterator-related constants in a
top-level header file, iterator.h, as they will be useful in a moment to
implement iteration over directory trees and possibly other types of
iterators in the future.

The DEVELOPER knob was introduced in 658df95 (add DEVELOPER makefile
knob to check for acknowledged warnings, 2016-02-25), and works well
when used as "make DEVELOPER=1", and when the configure script was not
used.
However, the advice given in CodingGuidelines to add DEVELOPER=1 to
config.mak does not: config.mak is included after testing for
DEVELOPER in the Makefile, and at least GNU Make's manual specifies
"Conditional directives are parsed immediately", hence the config.mak
declaration is not visible at the time the conditional is evaluated.
Also, when using the configure script to generate a
config.mak.autogen, the later file contained a "CFLAGS = <flags>"
initialization, which overrode the "CFLAGS += -W..." triggered by
DEVELOPER.
This patch fixes both issues.
