A future commit will want to call `for_each_namespaced_ref()` with
a list of excluded patterns.
We could introduce a variant of that function, say,
`for_each_namespaced_ref_exclude()` which takes the extra parameter, and
reimplement the original function in terms of that. But all but one
caller (in `http-backend.c`) will supply the new parameter, so add the
new parameter to `for_each_namespaced_ref()` itself instead of
introducing a new function.
For now, supply NULL for the list of excluded patterns at all callers to
avoid changing behavior, which we will do in a future change.

In subsequent commits, it will be convenient to have a 'const char **'
of hidden refs (matching `transfer.hiderefs`, `uploadpack.hideRefs`,
etc.), instead of a `string_list`.
Convert spots throughout the tree that store the list of hidden refs
from a `string_list` to a `strvec`.
Note that in `parse_hide_refs_config()` there is an ugly const-cast used
to avoid an extra copy of each value before trimming any trailing slash
characters. This could instead be written as:
ref = xstrdup(value);
len = strlen(ref);
while (len && ref[len - 1] == '/')
ref[--len] = '\0';
strvec_push(hide_refs, ref);
free(ref);
but the double-copy (once when calling `xstrdup()`, and another via
`strvec_push()`) is wasteful.

The previous commit added low-level tests to ensure that the packed-refs
iterator did not enumerate excluded sections of the refspace.
However, there was no guarantee that these sections weren't being
visited, only that they were being suppressed from the output. To harden
these tests, add a trace2 counter which tracks the number of regions
skipped by the packed-refs iterator, and assert on its value.

When iterating through the `packed-refs` file in order to answer a query
like:
$ git for-each-ref --exclude=refs/__hidden__
it would be useful to avoid walking over all of the entries in
`refs/__hidden__/*` when possible, since we know that the ref-filter
code is going to throw them away anyways.
In certain circumstances, doing so is possible. The algorithm for doing
so is as follows:
- For each excluded pattern, find the first record that matches it,
and the first record that *doesn't* match it (i.e. the location
you'd next want to consider when excluding that pattern).
- Sort the set of excluded regions from the previous step in ascending
order of the first location within the `packed-refs` file that
matches.
- Clean up the results from the previous step: discard empty regions,
and combine adjacent regions. The set of regions which remains is
referred to as the "jump list", and never contains any references
which should be included in the result set.
Then when iterating through the `packed-refs` file, if `iter->pos` is
ever contained in one of the regions from the previous steps, advance
`iter->pos` past the end of that region, and continue enumeration.
Note that we only perform this optimization when none of the excluded
pattern(s) have special meta-characters in them. For a pattern like
"refs/foo[ac]", the excluded regions ("refs/fooa", "refs/fooc", and
everything underneath them) are not connected. A future implementation
that handles this case may split the character class (pretending as if
two patterns were excluded: "refs/fooa", and "refs/fooc").
There are a few other gotchas worth considering. First, note that the
jump list is sorted, so once we jump past a region, we can avoid
considering it (or any regions preceding it) again. The member
`jump_pos` is used to track the first next-possible region to jump
through.
Second, note that the jump list is best-effort, since we do not handle
loose references, and because of the meta-character issue above. The
jump list may not skip past all references which won't appear in the
results, but will never skip over a reference which does appear in the
result set.
In repositories with a large number of hidden references, the speed-up
can be significant. Tests here are done with a copy of linux.git with a
reference "refs/pull/N" pointing at every commit, as in:
$ git rev-list HEAD | awk '{ print "create refs/pull/" NR " " $0 }' |
git update-ref --stdin
$ git pack-refs --all
, it is significantly faster to have `for-each-ref` jump over the
excluded references, as opposed to filtering them out after the fact:
$ hyperfine \
'git for-each-ref --format="%(objectname) %(refname)" | grep -vE "^[0-9a-f]{40} refs/pull/"' \
'git.prev for-each-ref --format="%(objectname) %(refname)" --exclude="refs/pull"' \

(Comparing stock git and this patch isn't quite fair, since an earlier
commit in this series adds a naive implementation of the `--exclude`
option. `git.prev` is built from the previous commit and includes this
naive implementation).
Using the jump list is fairly straightforward (see the changes to
`refs/packed-backend.c::next_record()`), but constructing the list is
not. To ensure that the construction is correct, add a new suite of
tests in t1419 covering various corner cases (overlapping regions,
partially overlapping regions, adjacent regions, etc.).

When using `for-each-ref`, it is sometimes convenient for the caller to
be able to exclude certain parts of the references.
For example, if there are many `refs/__hidden__/*` references, the
caller may want to emit all references *except* the hidden ones.
Currently, the only way to do this is to post-process the output, like:
$ git for-each-ref --format='%(refname)' | grep -v '^refs/hidden/'
Which is do-able, but requires processing a potentially large quantity
of references.
Teach `git for-each-ref` a new `--exclude=<pattern>` option, which
excludes references from the results if they match one or more excluded
patterns.
This patch provides a naive implementation where the `ref_filter` still
sees all references (including ones that it will discard) and is left to
check whether each reference matches any excluded pattern(s) before
emitting them.
By culling out references we know the caller doesn't care about, we can
avoid allocating memory for their storage, as well as spending time
sorting the output (among other things). Even the naive implementation
provides a significant speed-up on a modified copy of linux.git (that
has a hidden ref pointing at each commit):
$ hyperfine \
'git.compile for-each-ref --format="%(objectname) %(refname)" | grep -vE "[0-9a-f]{40} refs/pull/"' \
'git.compile for-each-ref --format="%(objectname) %(refname)" --exclude refs/pull/'

Summary
'git.compile for-each-ref --format="%(objectname) %(refname)" --exclude refs/pull/' ran
7.69 ± 0.08 times faster than 'git.compile for-each-ref --format="%(objectname) %(refname)" | grep -vE "[0-9a-f]{40} refs/pull/"'
Subsequent patches will improve on this by avoiding visiting excluded

`match_pattern()` and `match_name_as_path()` both take a `struct
ref_filter *`, and then store a stack variable `patterns` pointing at
`filter->patterns`.
The subsequent patch will add a new array of patterns to match over (the
excluded patterns, via a new `git for-each-ref --exclude` option),
treating the return value of these functions differently depending on
which patterns are being used to match.
Tweak `match_pattern()` and `match_name_as_path()` to take an array of
patterns to prepare for passing either in.
Once we start passing either in, `match_pattern()` will have little to
do with a particular `struct ref_filter *` instance. To clarify this,
drop it from the argument list, and replace it with the only bit of the
`ref_filter` that we care about (`filter->ignore_case`).

When `git commit-graph verify` was taught how to verify commit-graph
chains in 3da4b609bb (commit-graph: verify chains with --shallow mode,
2019-06-18), it produced one line of progress per layer of the
commit-graph chain.
$ git.compile commit-graph verify
Verifying commits in commit graph: 100% (4356/4356), done.
Verifying commits in commit graph: 100% (131912/131912), done.
This could be somewhat confusing to users, who may wonder why there are
multiple occurrences of "Verifying commits in commit graph".
There are likely good arguments on whether or not there should be
one line of progress output per commit-graph layer. On the one hand, the
existing output shows us verifying each individual layer of the chain.
But on the other hand, the fact that a commit-graph may be stored among
multiple layers is an implementation detail that the caller need not be
aware of.
Clarify this by showing a single progress meter regardless of the number
of layers in the commit-graph chain. After this patch, the output
reflects the logical contents of a commit-graph chain, instead of
showing one line of output per commit-graph layer:

The match_pathspec_item() function takes "prefix" value, allowing a
caller to chop off the common leading prefix of pathspec pattern
strings from the path and only use the remainder of the path to
match the pathspec patterns (after chopping the same leading prefix
of them, of course).
This "common leading prefix" optimization has two main features:
* discard the entries in the in-core index that are outside of the
common leading prefix; if you are doing "ls-files one/a one/b",
we know all matches must be from "one/", so first the code
discards all entries outside the "one/" directory from the
in-core index. This allows us to work on a smaller dataset.
* allow skipping the comparison of the leading bytes when matching
pathspec with path. When "ls-files" finds the path "one/a/1" in
the in-core index given "one/a" and "one/b" as the pathspec,
knowing that common leading prefix "one/" was found lets the
pathspec matchinery not to bother comparing "one/" part, and
allows it to feed "a/1" down, as long as the pathspec element
"one/a" gets corresponding adjustment to "a".
When the "attr" pathspec magic is in effect, however, the current
code breaks down.
The attributes, other than the ones that are built-in and the ones
that come from the $GIT_DIR/info/attributes file and the top-level
.gitattributes file, are lazily read from the filesystem on-demand,
as we encounter each path and ask if it matches the pathspec. For
example, if you say "git ls-files "(attr:label)sub/" in a repository
with a file "sub/file" that is given the 'label' attribute in
"sub/.gitattributes":
* The common prefix optimization finds that "sub/" is the common
prefix and prunes the in-core index so that it has only entries
inside that directory. This is desirable.
* The code then walks the in-core index, finds "sub/file", and
eventually asks do_match_pathspec() if it matches the given
pathspec.
* do_match_pathspec() calls match_pathspec_item() _after_ stripping
the common prefix "sub/" from the path, giving it "file", plus
the length of the common prefix (4-bytes), so that the pathspec
element "(attr:label)sub/" can be treated as if it were "(attr:label)".
The last one is what breaks the match in the current code, as the
pathspec subsystem ends up asking the attribute subsystem to find
the attribute attached to the path "file". We need to ask about the
attributes on "sub/file" when calling match_pathspec_attrs(); this
can be done by looking at "prefix" bytes before the beginning of
"name", which is the same trick already used by another piece of the
code in the same match_pathspec_item() function.
Unfortunately this was not discovered so far because the code works
with slightly different arguments, e.g.
$ git ls-files "(attr:label)sub"
$ git ls-files "(attr:label)sub/" "no/such/dir/"
would have reported "sub/file" as a path with the 'label' attribute
just fine, because neither would trigger the common prefix
optimization.

hex2chr() takes care not to run over the end of a NUL-terminated string.

accidentally be used with a pointer to a buffer of unknown size at new

Add a size parameter plus check, and remove the NUL-checks by calling
hexval() directly. This trades three NUL checks against one size check
and the ability to report the use of a short buffer at runtime.
If any of the four bytes is NUL or -- more generally -- not a

git ls-tree has two prefixes: The one handed to cmd_ls_tree(), i.e. the

last one, i.e. it shows full paths, and --full-tree clears both, i.e. it
acts as if the command was started in the root of the repository.
The show_tree_*() functions use the ls_tree_options members chomp_prefix
and ls_tree_prefix to determine their prefix values. Calculate it once
in cmd_ls_tree() instead, once the main prefix value is finalized.

In some shells, such as bash and zsh, it's possible to use a command
substitution to provide the output of a command as a file argument to
another process, like so:
diff -u <(printf "a\nb\n") <(printf "a\nc\n")
However, this syntax does not produce useful results with "git diff
--no-index". On macOS, the arguments to the command are named pipes
under /dev/fd, and git diff doesn't know how to handle a named pipe. On
Linux, the arguments are symlinks to pipes, so git diff "helpfully"
diffs these symlinks, comparing their targets like "pipe:[1234]" and
"pipe:[5678]".
To address this "diff --no-index" is changed so that if a path given on
the commandline is a named pipe or a symbolic link that resolves to a
named pipe then we read the data to diff from that pipe. This is
implemented by generalizing the code that already exists to handle
reading from stdin when the user passes the path "-".
If the user tries to compare a named pipe to a directory then we die as
we do when trying to compare stdin to a directory.
As process substitution is not support by POSIX this change is tested by
using a pipe and a symbolic link to a pipe.

"git diff --no-index" supports reading from stdin with the path "-".
There is no test coverage for this so add a regression test before
changing the code in the next commit.

If there is an error when reading from stdin then "diff --no-index"
prints an error message but continues to try and diff a file named "-"
resulting in an error message that looks like
error: error while reading from stdin: Invalid argument
fatal: stat '-': No such file or directory
assuming that no file named "-" exists. If such a file exists it prints
the first error message and generates the diff from that file which is
not what the user wanted. Instead just die() straight away if we cannot
read from stdin.

When the user runs
git diff --no-index file directory
we follow the behavior of POSIX diff and rewrite the arguments as
git diff --no-index file directory/file
Doing that when "file" is "-" (which means "read from stdin") does not
make sense so we should error out if the user asks us to compare "-" to
a directory. This matches the behavior of GNU diff and diff on *BSD.

In the first test in this script, 'creates a report with content in the
right places', we generate a report and pipe it into our helper
`check_all_headers_populated()`. The idea of the helper is to find all
lines that look like headers ("[Some Header Here]") and to check that
the next line is non-empty. This is supposed to catch erroneous outputs
such as the following:
[A Header]
something
more here
[Another Header]
[Too Early Header]
contents
However, we provide the lines of the bug report as filenames to grep,
meaning we mostly end up spewing errors:
grep: : No such file or directory
grep: [System Info]: No such file or directory
grep: git version:: No such file or directory
grep: git version 2.41.0.2.gfb7d80edca: No such file or directory
This doesn't disturb the test, which tugs along and reports success, not
really having verified the contents of the report at all.
Note that after 788a776069 ("bugreport: collect list of populated
hooks", 2020-05-07), the bug report, which is created in our hook-less
test repo, contains an empty section with the enabled hooks. Thus, even
the intention of our helper is a bit misguided: there is nothing
inherently wrong with having an empty section in the bug report.
Let's instead split this test into three: first verify that we generate
a report at all, then check that the introductory blurb looks the way it
should, then verify that the "[System Info]" seems to contain the right
things. (The "[Enabled Hooks]" section is tested later in the script.)

alloc_nr, ALLOC_GROW, and ALLOC_GROW_BY are commonly used macros for
dynamic array allocation. Moving these macros to git-compat-util.h with
the other alloc macros focuses alloc.[ch] to allocation for Git objects
and additionally allows us to remove inclusions to alloc.h from files
that solely used the above macros.

This table was originally introduced to solely be used with kwset
machinery (0f871cf56e), so it would make sense for it to belong in
kwset.[ch] rather than ctype.c and git-compat-util.h. It is only used in
diffcore-pickaxe.c, which already includes kwset.h so no other headers
have to be modified.
