Derrick Stolee c1442410d8 midx: drop chunk progress during write
Most expensive operations in write_midx_internal() use the context
struct's progress member, and these indicate the process of the
expensive operations within the chunk writing methods. However, there is
a competing progress struct that counts the progress over all chunks.
This is not very helpful compared to the others, so drop it.

This also reduces our barriers to combining the chunk writing code with
chunk-format.c.

Derrick Stolee 0ccd713cb6 midx: return success/failure in chunk write methods
Historically, the chunk-writing methods in midx.c have returned the
amount of data written so the writer method could compare this with the
table of contents. This presents with some interesting issues:

1. If a chunk writing method has a bug that miscalculates the written
   bytes, then we can satisfy the table of contents without actually
   writing the right amount of data to the hashfile. The commit-graph
   writing code checks the hashfile struct directly for a more robust
   verification.

2. There is no way for a chunk writing method to gracefully fail.
   Returning an int presents an opportunity to fail without a die().

3. The current pattern doesn't match chunk_write_fn type exactly, so we
   cannot share code with commit-graph.c

For these reasons, convert the midx chunk writer methods to return an
'int'. Since none of them fail at the moment, they all return 0.

Derrick Stolee 980f525c3c midx: add num_large_offsets to write_midx_context
In an effort to align write_midx_internal() with the chunk-format API,
continue to group necessary data into "struct write_midx_context". This
change collects the "uint32_t num_large_offsets" into the context. With
this new data, write_midx_large_offsets() now matches the

Derrick Stolee 31bda9a237 midx: add entries to write_midx_context
In an effort to align write_midx_internal() with the chunk-format API,
continue to group necessary data into "struct write_midx_context". This
change collects the "struct pack_midx_entry *entries" list and its count
into the context.

Update write_midx_oid_fanout() and write_midx_oid_lookup() to take the
context directly, as these are easy conversions with this new data.

Only the callers of write_midx_object_offsets() and
write_midx_large_offsets() are updated here, since additional data in
the context before those methods can match chunk_write_fn.

Derrick Stolee b4d941420b midx: use context in write_midx_pack_names()
In an effort to align the write_midx_internal() to use the chunk-format
API, start converting chunk writing methods to match chunk_write_fn. The
first case is to convert write_midx_pack_names() to take "void *data".
We already have the necessary data in "struct write_midx_context", so
this conversion is rather mechanical.

Derrick Stolee 577dc49696 midx: rename pack_info to write_midx_context
In an effort to streamline our chunk-based file formats, align some of
the code structure in write_midx_internal() to be similar to the
patterns in write_commit_graph_file().

Specifically, let's create a "struct write_midx_context" that can be
used as a data parameter to abstract function types.

This change only renames "struct pack_info" to "struct
write_midx_context" and the names of instances from "packs" to "ctx". In
future changes, we will expand the data inside "struct
write_midx_context" and align our chunk-writing method with the
chunk-format API.

Derrick Stolee 570df42610 chunk-format: create chunk format write API
In anticipation of combining the logic from the commit-graph and
multi-pack-index file formats, create a new chunk-format API. Use a
'struct chunkfile' pointer to keep track of data that has been
registered for writes. This struct is anonymous outside of
chunk-format.c to ensure no user attempts to interfere with the data.

The next change will use this API in commit-graph.c, but the general
approach is:

 1. initialize the chunkfile with init_chunkfile(f).
 2. add chunks in the intended writing order with add_chunk().
 3. write any header information to the hashfile f.
 4. write the chunkfile data using write_chunkfile().
 5. free the chunkfile struct using free_chunkfile().

Martin Ågren f89f46b704 gitmailmap.txt: fix rendering of e-mail addresses
Both AsciiDoc and Asciidoctor are eager to pick up the e-mail addresses
in this document and turn them into references at the bottom of the
manpage / clickable links. We don't really need that for these dummy
addresses. Spell "@" as "&#64;" to make them not do this. In the open
block, we can instead avoid this by indenting the contents, similar to
the earlier blocks.

Fix a backtick which should have been a single quote mark. With all the
quoting that is going on around here, this mistake trips up the parsing
and rendering quite a bit.

Before this commit, we have the same failure mode with AsciiDoc 8.6.10
and Asciidoctor 1.5.5, and this change makes both of them happy.

Rafael Silva 8e16effe97 blame: remove unnecessary use of get_commit_info()
When `git blame --color-by-age`, the determine_line_heat() is called to
select how to color the output based on the commit's author date.  It
uses the get_commit_info() to parse the information into a `commit_info`
structure, however, this is actually unnecessary because the
determine_line_heat() caller also does the same.

Instead, let's change the determine_line_heat() to take a `commit_info`
structure and remove the internal call to get_commit_info() thus
cleaning up and optimizing the code path.

Enabling Git's trace2 API in order to record the execution time for
every call to determine_line_heat() function:

   + trace2_region_enter("blame", "determine_line_heat", the_repository);
     determine_line_heat(ent, &default_color);
   + trace2_region_enter("blame", "determine_line_heat", the_repository);

Then, running `git blame` for "kernel/fork.c" in linux.git and summing
all the execution time for every call (around 1.3k calls) resulted in
2.6x faster execution (best out 3):

   git built from 328c109303 (The eighth batch, 2021-02-12) = 42ms
   git built from 328c109303 + this change                  = 16ms

Jeff Hostetler 0917763d67 p7519: fix watchman watch-list test on Windows
Only use the final portion of the test trash directory file name
when verifying that Watchman was started.

On Windows and under the SDK, $GIT_WORKTREE is a cygwin-style
path with forward slashes and a "/c/" drive name.  However
`watchman watch-list` reports a proper Windows-style pathname
with drive letters and backslashes.  This causes the grep to
fail.  Since we don't really care about the full pathname (and
we really don't want to bother with normalizaing them), just see
if the test-name portion of the path is found.

Jeff Hostetler eb10e637cf p7519: do not rely on "xargs -d" in test
Convert the test to use a more portable method to update the mtime on a
large number of files under version control.

The Mac version of xargs does not support the "-d" option.
Likewise, the "-0" and "--null" options are not portable.

Furthermore, use `test-tool chmtime` rather than `touch` to update the
mtime to ensure that it is actually updated (especially on file systems
with only whole second resolution).

Matheus Tavares 3f7ba60350 checkout-index: omit entries with no tempname from --temp output
With --temp (or --stage=all, which implies --temp), checkout-index
writes a list to stdout associating temporary file names to the entries'
names. But if it fails to write an entry, and the failure happens before
even assigning a temporary filename to that entry, we get an odd output
line. This can be seen when trying to check out a symlink whose blob is
missing:

$ missing_blob=$(git hash-object --stdin </dev/null)
$ git update-index --add --cacheinfo 120000,$missing_blob,foo
$ git checkout-index --temp foo
error: unable to read sha1 file of foo (e69de29bb2)
        foo

The 'TAB foo' line is not much useful and it might break scripts that
expect the 'tempname TAB foo' output. So let's omit such entries from
the stdout list (but leaving the error message on stderr).

We could also consider omitting _all_ failed entries from the output
list, but that's probably not a good idea as the associated tempfiles
may have been created even when checkout failed, so scripts may want to
use the output list for cleanup.

Matheus Tavares 9334ea8e92 write_entry(): fix misuses of path in error messages
The variables `path` and `ce->name`, at write_entry(), usually have the
same contents, but that's not the case when using a checkout prefix or
writing to a tempfile. (In fact, `path` will be either empty or dirty
when writing to a tempfile.) Therefore, these variables cannot be used
interchangeably. In this sense, fix wrong uses of `path` in error
messages where it should really be `ce->name`, and add some regression
tests. (Note: there doesn't seem to be any misuse in the other way
around.)

Junio C Hamano 1eb4136ac2 diff: --{rotate,skip}-to=<path>
In the implementation of "git difftool", there is a case where the
user wants to start viewing the diffs at a specific path and
continue on to the rest, optionally wrapping around to the
beginning.  Since it is somewhat cumbersome to implement such a
feature as a post-processing step of "git diff" output, let's
support it internally with two new options.

 - "git diff --rotate-to=C", when the resulting patch would show
   paths A B C D E without the option, would "rotate" the paths to
   shows patch to C D E A B instead.  It is an error when there is
   no patch for C is shown.

 - "git diff --skip-to=C" would instead "skip" the paths before C,
   and shows patch to C D E.  Again, it is an error when there is no
   patch for C is shown.

 - "git log [-p]" also accepts these two options, but it is not an
   error if there is no change to the specified path.  Instead, the
   set of output paths are rotated or skipped to the specified path
   or the first path that sorts after the specified path.

Elijah Newren f78cf97617 merge-ort: call diffcore_rename() directly
We want to pass additional information to diffcore_rename() (or some
variant thereof) without plumbing that extra information through
diff_tree_oid() and diffcore_std().  Further, since we will need to
gather additional special information related to diffs and are walking
the trees anyway in collect_merge_info(), it seems odd to have
diff_tree_oid()/diffcore_std() repeat those tree walks.  And there may
be times where we can avoid traversing into a subtree in
collect_merge_info() (based on additional information at our disposal),
that the basic diff logic would be unable to take advantage of.  For all
these reasons, just create the add and delete pairs ourself and then
call diffcore_rename() directly.

This change is primarily about enabling future optimizations; the
advantage of avoiding extra tree traversals is small compared to the
cost of rename detection, and the advantage of avoiding the extra tree
traversals is somewhat offset by the extra time spent in
collect_merge_info() collecting the additional data anyway.  However...

For the testcases mentioned in commit 557ac0350d ("merge-ort: begin
performance work; instrument with trace2_region_* calls", 2020-10-28),
this change improves the performance as follows:

                            Before                  After
    no-renames:       13.294 s ±  0.103 s    12.775 s ±  0.062 s
    mega-renames:    187.248 s ±  0.882 s   188.754 s ±  0.284 s
    just-one-mega:     5.557 s ±  0.017 s     5.599 s ±  0.019 s
