The `--trailer` option takes a "<token>=<value>" argument, for example
--trailer "Acked-by=Bob"
And in this exampple it is understood that "Acked-by" is the <token>.
However, the user can use a shorter "ack" string by defining
configuration like
git config trailer.ack.key "Acked-by"
However, in the docs we define the above configuration as
trailer.<token>.key
so the <token> can mean either the longer "Acked-by" or the shorter
"ack".
Separate the two meanings of <token> into <key> and <keyAlias>, and
update the configuration syntax to say "trailer.<keyAlias>.key".

The phrase "join whitespace-continued values" requires some additional
context. For example, "whitespace" means newlines (not just space
characters), and "join" means to join only the multiple lines together
for a single trailer (and not that we are joining multiple trailers
together). That is, "join" means to convert
token: This is a very long value, with spaces and
newlines in it.
to
token: This is a very long value, with spaces and newlines in it.
and does not mean to convert
token: value1

There are a few parse-option callbacks that do not look at their "unset"
parameters, but also do not set PARSE_OPT_NONEG. At first glance this
seems like a bug, as we'd ignore "--no-if-exists", etc.
But they do work fine, because when "unset" is true, then "arg" is NULL.
And all three functions pass "arg" on to helper functions which do the
right thing with the NULL.
Note that this shortcut would not be correct if any callback used
PARSE_OPT_NOARG (in which case "arg" would be NULL but "unset" would be
false). But none of these do.
So the code is fine as-is. But we'll want to mark the unused "unset"
parameters to quiet -Wunused-parameter. I've also added a comment to
make this rather subtle situation more explicit.

The option_parse_strategy() callback does not look at opt->value;
instead it calls append_strategy(), which manipulates the global
use_strategies array directly. But the OPT_CALLBACK declaration assigns
"&use_strategies" to opt->value.
One could argue this is good, as it tells the reader what we generally
expect the callback to do. But it is also bad, because it can mislead
you into thinking that swapping out "&use_strategies" there might have
any effect. Let's switch it to pass NULL (which is what every other
"does not bother to look at opt->value" callback does). If you want to
know what the callback does, it's easy to read the function itself.

The previous commit argued that parse-options callbacks should try to
use opt->value rather than touching globals directly. In some cases,
however, that's awkward to do. Some callbacks touch multiple variables,
or may even just call into an abstracted function that does so.
In some of these cases we _could_ convert them by stuffing the multiple
variables into a single struct and passing the struct pointer through
opt->value. But that may make other parts of the code less readable,
as the struct relationship has to be mentioned everywhere.
Let's just accept that these cases are special and leave them as-is. But
we do need to mark their "opt" parameters to satisfy -Wunused-parameter.

We have several parse-options callbacks that ignore their "opt"
parameters entirely. This is a little unusual, as we'd normally put the
result of the parsing into opt->value. In the case of these callbacks,
though, they directly manipulate global variables instead (and in
most cases the caller sets opt->value to NULL in the OPT_CALLBACK
declaration).
The immediate symptom we'd like to deal with is that the unused "opt"
variables trigger -Wunused-parameter. But how to fix that is debatable.
One option is to annotate them with UNUSED. But another is to have the
caller pass in the appropriate variable via opt->value, and use it. That
has the benefit of making the callbacks reusable (in theory at least),
and makes it clear from the OPT_CALLBACK declaration which variables
will be affected (doubly so for the cases in builtin/fast-export.c,
where we do set opt->value, but it is completely ignored!).
The slight downside is that we lose type safety, since they're now
passing through void pointers.
I went with the "just use them" approach here. The loss of type safety
is unfortunate, but that is already an issue with most of the other
callbacks. If we want to try to address that, we should do so more
consistently (and this patch would prepare these callbacks for whatever
we choose to do there).
Note that in the cases in builtin/fast-export.c, we are passing
anonymous enums. We'll have to give them names so that we can declare
the appropriate pointer type within the callbacks.

Using --stage=all requires writing to tempfiles, since we cannot put
multiple stages into a single file. So --stage=all implies --temp.
But we do so by setting to_tempfile in the options callback for --stage,
rather than after all options have been parsed. This leads to two bugs:
1. If you run "checkout-index --stage=all --stage=2", this should not
imply --temp, but it currently does. The callback cannot just unset
to_tempfile when it sees the "2" value, because it no longer knows
if its value was from the earlier --stage call, or if the user
specified --temp explicitly.
2. If you run "checkout-index --stage=all --no-temp", the --no-temp
will overwrite the earlier implied --temp. But this mode of
operation cannot work, and the command will fail with "<path>
already exists" when trying to write the higher stages.
We can fix both by lazily setting to_tempfile. We'll make it a tristate,
with -1 as "not yet given", and have --stage=all enable it only after
all options are parsed. Likewise, after all options are parsed we can
detect and reject the bogus "--no-temp" case.
Note that this does technically change the behavior for "--stage=all
--no-temp" for paths which have only one stage present (which
accidentally worked before, but is now forbidden). But this behavior was
never intended, and you'd have to go out of your way to try to trigger
it.
The new tests cover both cases, as well the general "--stage=all implies
--temp", as most of the other tests explicitly say "--temp". Ironically,
the test "checkout --temp within subdir" is the only one that _doesn't_
use "--temp", and so was implicitly covering this case. But it seems
reasonable to have a more explicit test alongside the other related
ones.

The "-n" option is implemented by an option callback, as it is really a
"reverse bool". If given, it sets show_diffstat to 0. In theory, when
negated, it would set the same flag to 1. But it's not possible to
trigger that, since short options cannot be negated.
So in practice this is really just a SET_INT to 0. Let's use that
instead, which shortens the code.
Note that negation here would do the wrong thing (as with any SET_INT
with a value of "0"). We could specify PARSE_OPT_NONEG to future-proof
ourselves against somebody adding a long option name (which would make
it possible to negate). But there's not much point:
1. Nobody is going to do that, because the negated form already
exists, and is called "--stat" (which is defined separately so that
"--no-stat" works).
2. If they did, the BUG() check added by 3284b93862 (parse-options:

that check is smart enough to realize that our short-only option is

The "xopts" variable uses a custom array with ALLOC_GROW(). Using a

As a bonus, this means that "--no-strategy-option", which was previously

it will clear the list of -X options seen so far. This matches the

were to be kept the authoritative version of the subject prefix even
while parsing command line options, and sprefix variable was used as
a temporary area to futz with it. Now, the parsing code has been

remember, it's because we were trying to push users towards only ever

However, `--max-pack-size` is flexible enough that it already works with
`--cruft` and can shard unreachable objects across multiple cruft packs,
creating separate ".mtimes" files as appropriate. In fact, the
`--max-pack-size` option worked with `--cruft` as far back as
b757353676!

Many programs use diff_result_code() to get a user-visible program exit
code from a diff result (e.g., checking opts.found_changes if
--exit-code was requested).
This function also takes a "status" parameter, which seems at first
glance that it could be used to propagate an error encountered when
computing the diff. But it doesn't work that way:
- negative values are passed through as-is, but are not appropriate as
program exit codes
- when --exit-code or --check is in effect, we _ignore_ the passed-in
status completely. So a failed diff which did not have a chance to
set opts.found_changes would erroneously report "success, no
changes" instead of propagating the error.
After recent cleanups, neither of these bugs is possible to trigger, as
every caller just passes in "0". So rather than fixing them, we can
simply drop the useless parameter instead.

perform each one. But every helper simply returns "0", as it exits
directly if there are serious errors (and options like --exit-code are
handled afterwards). So let's get rid of these useless return values,
which makes the code flow more clear.
There's very little chance that we'd later want to propagate errors
instead of dying immediately. These are all static-local helpers for the
git-diff program implementing its various modes. More "lib-ified" code

Neither of these functions ever returns a value other than zero.
Instead, they expect unrecoverable errors to exit immediately, and
things like "--exit-code" are stored inside the diff_options struct to
be handled later via diff_result_code().
Some callers do check the return values, but many don't bother. Let's
drop the useless return values, which are misleading callers about how
the functions work. This could be seen as a step in the wrong direction,
as we might want to eventually "lib-ify" these to more cleanly return
errors up the stack, in which case we'd have to add the return values
back in. But there are some benefits to doing this now:
1. In the current code, somebody could accidentally add a "return -1"
to one of the functions, which would be erroneously ignored by many
callers. By removing the return code, the compiler can notice the
mismatch and force the developer to decide what to do.
Obviously the other option here is that we could start consistently
checking the error code in every caller. But it would be dead code,
and we wouldn't get any compile-time help in catching new cases.
2. It communicates the situation to callers, who may want to choose a
different function. These functions are really thin wrappers for
doing git-diff-files and git-diff-index within the process. But
callers who care about recovering from an error here are probably
better off using the underlying library functions, many of
which do return errors.
If somebody eventually wants to teach these functions to propagate
errors, they'll have to switch back to returning a value, effectively
reverting this patch. But at least then they will be starting with a
level playing field: they know that they will need to inspect each
caller to see how it should handle the error.

When the git-diff program fails to read the index in its diff-files or
diff-index helper functions, it propagates the error up the stack. This
eventually lands in diff_result_code(), which does not handle it well
(as discussed in the previous patch).
Since the only sensible thing here is to exit with an error code (and
what we were expecting the propagated error code to cause), let's just
do that directly.
There's no test here, as I'm not even sure this case can be triggered.
The index-reading functions tend to die() themselves when encountering
any errors, and the return value is just the number of entries in the
file (and so always 0 or positive). But let's err on the conservative
side and keep checking the return value. It may be worth digging into as
a separate topic (though index-reading is low-level enough that we
probably want to eventually teach it to propagate errors anyway for
lib-ification purposes, at which point this code would already be doing
the right thing).

or blob arguments are given, instead prints an error() and returns -1.
One obvious shortcoming here is that the user doesn't get to see the
usual usage message. But there's a much more important bug: the -1
return is fed to diff_result_code(), which is not ready to handle it.
By default, it passes the code along as an exit code. We try to avoid
negative exit codes because they get converted to unsigned values, but
it should at least consistently show up as non-zero (i.e., a failure).
But much worse is that when --exit-code is in effect, diff_result_code()
will _ignore_ the status passed in by the caller, and instead only
report on whether the diff found changes. It didn't, of course, because
we never ran the diff, and the program unexpectedly exits with success!
We can fix this bug by just calling usage(), like the other helpers do.
Another option would of course be to teach diff_result_code() to handle
this value. But as we'll see in the next few patches, it can be cleaned
up even further. Let's just fix this bug directly to start with.

If loading the index fails, we print an error and then return "-1" from
the function. But since this is a builtin, we end up with exit(-1),
which produces odd results since program exit codes are unsigned.
Because of integer conversion, it usually becomes 255, which is at least
still an error, but values above 128 are usually interpreted as signal
death.
Since we know the program is exiting immediately, we can just replace
the error return with a die().

Many callers of run_diff_index() passed literal "1" for the option
flag word, which should better be spelled out as DIFF_INDEX_CACHED
for readablity. Everybody else passes "0" that can stay as-is.
The other bit in the option flag word is DIFF_INDEX_MERGE_BASE, but
curiously there is only one caller that can pass it, which is "git
diff-index --merge-base" itself---no internal callers uses the
feature.
A bit tricky call to the function is in builtin/submodule--helper.c
where the .cached member in a private struct is set/reset as a plain
Boolean flag, which happens to be "1" and happens to match the value
of DIFF_INDEX_CACHED.

We switched the function interface for fsck callbacks in a1aad71601
(fsck.h: use "enum object_type" instead of "int", 2021-03-28). However,
we accidentally flipped the type back to "int" as part of 0b4e9013f1
(fsck: mark unused parameters in various fsck callbacks, 2023-07-03).
The mistake happened because that commit was written before a1aad71601
and rebased forward, and I screwed up while resolving the conflict.
Curiously, the compiler does not warn about this mismatch, at least not
when using gcc and clang on Linux (nor in any of our CI environments).
Based on 28abf260a5 (builtin/fsck.c: don't conflate "int" and "enum" in
callback, 2021-06-01), I'd guess that this would cause the AIX xlc
compiler to complain. I noticed because clang-18's UBSan now identifies
mis-matched function calls at runtime, and does complain of this case
when running the test suite.
I'm not entirely clear on whether this mismatch is a problem in
practice. Compilers are certainly free to make enums smaller than "int"
if they don't need the bits, but I suspect that they have to promote
back to int for function calls (though I didn't dig in the standard, and
I won't be surprised if I'm simply wrong and the real-world impact would
depend on the ABI).
Regardless, switching it back to enum is obviously the right thing to do
here; the switch to "int" was simply a mistake.

When running 'git maintenance start', the current pattern is to
configure global config settings to enable maintenance on the current
repository and set 'maintenance.auto' to false and _then_ to set up the
schedule with the system scheduler.
This has a problematic error condition: if the scheduler fails to
initialize, the repository still will not use automatic maintenance due
to the 'maintenance.auto' setting.
Fix this gap by swapping the order of operations. If Git fails to
initialize maintenance, then the config changes should never happen.

The 'git maintenance run' command prevents concurrent runs in the same

the hourly maintenance runs the same time as the daily and weekly runs.
(Similarly, daily maintenance runs at the same time as weekly
maintenance.) These competing commands result in some maintenance not
actually being run.
This overlap was something we could not fix until we made the recent
change to not use the builting 'hourly', 'daily', and 'weekly' schedules

1. Hourly runs avoid the 0th hour.
2. Daily runs avoid Monday.

The get_random_minute() method was created to allow maintenance
schedules to be fixed to a random minute of the hour. This randomness is
only intended to spread out the load from a number of clients, but each
client should have an hour between each maintenance cycle.
Add this random minute to the systemd integration.
This integration is more complicated than similar changes for other
schedulers because of a neat trick that systemd allows: templating.
The previous implementation generated two template files with names
of the form 'git-maintenance@.(timer|service)'. The '.timer' or
'.service' indicates that this is a template that is picked up when we
later specify '...@<schedule>.timer' or '...@<schedule>.service'. The
'<schedule>' string is then used to insert into the template both the
'OnCalendar' schedule setting and the '--schedule' parameter of the
'git maintenance run' command.
In order to set these schedules to a given minute, we can no longer use
the 'hourly', 'daily', or 'weekly' strings for '<schedule>' and instead
need to abandon the template model for the .timer files. We can still
use templates for the .service files. For this reason, we split these
writes into two methods.
Modify the template with a custom schedule in the 'OnCalendar' setting.
This schedule has some interesting differences from cron-like patterns,
but is relatively easy to figure out from context. The one that might be
confusing is that '*-*-*' is a date-based pattern, but this must be
omitted when using 'Mon' to signal that we care about the day of the
week. Monday is used since that matches the day used for the 'weekly'
schedule used previously.
Now that the timer files are not templates, we might want to abandon the
'@' symbol in the file names. However, this would cause users with
existing schedules to get two competing schedules due to different
names. The work to remove the old schedule name is one thing that we can
avoid by keeping the '@' symbol in our unit names. Since we are locked
into this name, it makes sense that we keep the template model for the
.service files.
The rest of the change involves making sure we are writing these .timer
and .service files before initializing the schedule with 'systemctl' and
deleting the files when we are done. Some changes are also made to share
the random minute along with a single computation of the execution path
of the current Git executable.
In addition, older Git versions may have written a
'git-maintenance@.timer' template file. Be sure to remove this when
successfully enabling maintenance (or disabling maintenance).

The systemd_timer_write_unit_templates() method writes a single template
that is then used to start the hourly, daily, and weekly schedules with
systemd.
However, in order to schedule systemd maintenance on a given minute,
these templates need to be replaced with specific schedules for each of
these jobs.
Before modifying the schedules, move the writing method above the
systemd_timer_enable_unit() method, so we can write a specific schedule
for each unit.
The diff is computed smaller by showing systemd_timer_enable_unit() and
systemd_timer_delete_units() move instead of

When we initially created background maintenance -- with its hourly,
daily, and weekly schedules -- we considered the effects of all clients
launching fetches to the server every hour on the hour. The worry of
DDoSing server hosts was noted, but left as something we would consider
for a future update.
As background maintenance has gained more adoption over the past three
years, our worries about DDoSing the big Git hosts has been unfounded.
Those systems, especially those serving public repositories, are already
resilient to thundering herds of much smaller scale.
However, sometimes organizations spin up specific custom server
infrastructure either in addition to or on top of their Git host. Some
of these technologies are built for a different range of scale, and can
hit concurrency limits sooner. Organizations with such custom
infrastructures are more likely to recommend tools like `scalar` which
furthers their adoption of background maintenance.
To help solve for this, create get_random_minute() as a method to help
Git select a random minute when creating schedules in the future. The
integrations with this method do not yet exist, but will follow in
future changes.
To avoid multiple sources of randomness in the Git codebase, create a
new helper function, git_rand(), that returns a random uint32_t. This is
similar to how rand() returns a random nonnegative value, except it is
based on csprng_bytes() which is cryptographic and will return values
larger than RAND_MAX.
One thing that is important for testability is that we notice when we
are under a test scenario and return a predictable result. The schedules
themselves are not checked for this value, but at least one launchctl
test checks that we do not unnecessarily reboot the schedule if it has
not changed from a previous version.

The `pack_geometry` struct is used to maintain and partition a list of
packfiles into a "frozen" set (to be left alone), and a non-frozen set
(to be combined into a single new pack). In the previous commit, we
removed a leak caused by neglecting to free() the heap allocated space
used to store the structure itself.
But there is no need for this structure to live on the heap anyway.
Instead, let's move it to be stack allocated, eliminating the
possibility of a direct leak like the one addressed in the previous
patch.
The one minor hitch is that we use the NULL-ness of the pack_geometry's
struct pointer to determine whether or not we are performing a geometric
repack with `--geometric=<d>`. But since we only initialize the
pack_geometry structure when the `geometric_factor` is non-zero, we can
use that variable (based on whether or not it is equal to zero) to
determine whether or not we are performing a geometric repack.
There are a couple of spots that have access to a pointer to the
pack_geometry struct, but not the geometric_factor itself. Instead of
passing in an additional variable, let's make the geometric_factor a
field of the pack_geometry struct.

When moving a directory onto another with `git mv` various checks are
performed. One of of these validates that the destination is not existing.
When calling `lstat` on the destination path and it fails as the path
doesn't exist, some environments seem to overwrite the passed in
`stat` memory nonetheless (I observed this issue on debian 12 of x86_64,
running on OrbStack on ARM, emulated with Rosetta).
This would affect the code that followed as it would still acccess a now
modified `st` structure, which now seems to contain uninitialized memory.
`S_ISDIR(st_dir_mode)` would then typically return false causing the code
to run into a bad case.
The fix avoids overwriting the existing `st` structure, providing an
alternative that exists only for that purpose.

When the program is ending, we call clear_pack_geometry() to free any
resources in the pack_geometry struct. But the struct itself is
allocated on the heap, and leak-checkers will complain about the
resulting small leak.
This one was marked by Coverity as a "new" leak, though it has existed
since 0fabafd0b9 (builtin/repack.c: add '--geometric' option,
2021-02-22). This might be because recent unrelated changes in the file
confused it about what is new and what is not. But regardless, it is
worth addressing.
We can fix it easily by free-ing the struct. We'll convert our "clear"
function to "free", since the allocation happens in the matching init()
function (though since there is only one call to each, and the struct is
local to this file, it's mostly academic).
Another option would be to put the struct on the stack rather than the
heap. However, this gets tricky, as we check the pointer against NULL in
several places to decide whether we're in geometric mode.

The original code that was limited only to work during a merge (and
not during a rebase or a cherry-pick) has been kept as the fallback
codepath to be used as a transition measure.
By now, for more than 10 years we have stored resolve-undo extension

"update-index --unresolve" uses the unmerge_index_entry_at() that

make sure that resolve-undo record that has already been used to
recreate higher-stage index entries is removed. Add new invocations

When "update-index --unresolve $path" cannot find the resolve-undo
record for the path the user requested to unresolve, it stuffs the
blobs from HEAD and MERGE_HEAD to stage #2 and stage #3 as a
fallback. For this reason, the operation does not even start unless
both "HEAD" and "MERGE_HEAD" exist.
This is suboptimal in a few ways:
* It does not recreate stage #1. Even though it is a correct
design decision not to do so (because it is impossible to
recreate in general cases, without knowing how we got there,
including what merge strategy was used), it is much less useful
not to have that information in the index.
* It limits the "unresolve" operation only during a conflicted "git
merge" and nothing else. Other operations like "rebase",
"cherry-pick", and "switch -m" may result in conflicts, and the
user may want to unresolve the conflict that they incorrectly
resolved in order to redo the resolution, but the fallback would
not kick in.
* Most importantly, the entire "unresolve" operation is disabled
after a conflicted merge is committed and MERGE_HEAD is removed,
even though the index has perfectly usable resolve-undo records.
By lazily reading the HEAD and MERGE_HEAD only when we need to go to
the fallback codepath, we will allow cases where resolve-undo
records are available (which is 100% of the time, unless the user is
reading from an index file created by Git more than 10 years ago) to
proceed even after a conflicted merge was committed, during other
mergy operations that do not use MERGE_HEAD, or after the result of
such mergy operations has been committed.

"git reset --no-mixed" behaved exactly like "git reset --mixed",
which was nonsense.
If there were only two kinds, e.g. "mixed" vs "separate", it might
have made sense to make "git reset --no-mixed" behave identically to
"git reset --separate" and vice-versa, but because we have many
types of reset, let's just forbid "--no-mixed" and negated form of
other types.

"git show-branch --no-topo-order" behaved exactly the same way as
"git show-branch --topo-order" did, which was nonsense. This was
because we choose between topo- and date- by setting a variable to
either REV_SORT_IN_GRAPH_ORDER or REV_SORT_BY_COMMIT_DATE with
OPT_SET_INT() and REV_SORT_IN_GRAPH_ORDER happens to be 0. The
OPT_SET_INT() macro assigns 0 to the target variable in respose to
the negated form of its option.
"--no-date-order" by luck behaves identically to "--topo-order"
exactly for the same reason, and it sort-of makes sense right now,
but the "sort-of makes sense" will quickly break down once we add a
third way to sort. Not-A may be B when there are only two choices
between A and B, but once your choices become among A, B, and C,
not-A does not mean B.
Just mark these two ordering options to reject negation, and add a
test, which was missing. "git show-branch --no-reflog" is also
unnegatable, so throw in a test for that while we are at it.

The help text for the --tags option was split into two option[]
entries, which was a hacky way to give two lines of help text (the
second entry did not have either short or long help, and there was
no way to invoke its entry---it was there only for the help text).
As we now support multi-line text in the option help, let's make
the second line of the help a proper second line and remove the

"git show-branch --no-sparse" behaved exactly the same way as "git
show-branch --sparse", which did not make any sense. This was
because it used a variable "dense" initialized to 1 by default to
give "non sparse" behaviour, and OPT_SET_INT() to set the varilable
to 0 in response to the "--sparse" option. Unfortunately,
OPT_SET_INT() sets 0 to the given variable when the option is
negated.
Flip the polarity of the variable "dense" by renaming it to "sparse"
and initializing it to 0, and have OPT_SET_INT() set the variable to
1 when "--sparse" is given. This way, "--no-sparse" would set 0 to
the variable and would give us the "dense" behaviour.

There are a few callback functions which are used with the fsck code,

single object in the first place. And for both reporting and walking,
things like void data pointers and the fsck_options aren't always

In a narrow but common case, the user is the only author of a branch and
doesn't mind overwriting the corresponding branch on the remote. This
workflow is especially common on GitHub, GitLab, and Gerrit, which keep
a permanent record of every version of a branch that is pushed while a
pull request is open for that branch. On those platforms, force-pushing
is encouraged and is analogous to emailing a new version of a patchset.
When giving advice about divergent branches, tell the user about
`git pull`, but don't unconditionally instruct the user to do it. A less
prescriptive message will help prevent users from thinking that they are
required to create an integrated history instead of simply replacing the
previous history. Also, don't put `git pull` in an awkward
parenthetical, because `git pull` can always be used to reconcile
branches and is the normal way to do so.
Due to the difficulty of knowing which command for force-pushing is best
suited to the user's situation, no specific advice is given about
force-pushing. Instead, the user is directed to the Git documentation to
read about possible ways forward that do not involve integration.

When repacking, the function `collect_pack_filenames()` is responsible
for collecting the set of existing packs in the repository, and
partitioning them into "kept" (if the pack has a ".keep" file or was
given via `--keep-pack`) and "nonkept" (otherwise) lists.
This function comes from the original C port of git-repack.sh from back
in a1bbc6c017 (repack: rewrite the shell script in C, 2013-09-15),
where it first appears as `get_non_kept_pack_filenames()`. At the time,
the implementation was a fairly direct translation from the relevant
portion of git-repack.sh, which looped over the results of
find "$PACKDIR" -type f -name '*.pack'
either ignoring the pack as kept, or adding it to the list of existing
packs.
So the choice to directly translate this function in terms of
`readdir()` in a1bbc6c017 made sense. At the time, it was possible to
refine the C version in terms of packed_git structs, but was never done.
However, manually enumerating a repository's packs via `readdir()` is
confusing and error-prone. It leads to frustrating inconsistencies
between which packs Git considers to be part of a repository (i.e.,
could be found in the list of packs from `get_all_packs()`), and which
packs `collect_pack_filenames()` considers to meet the same criteria.
This bit us in 73320e49ad (builtin/repack.c: only collect fully-formed
packs, 2023-06-07), and again in the previous commit.
Prevent these issues from biting us in the future by implementing the
`collect_pack_filenames()` function by looping over an array of pointers
to `packed_git` structs, ensuring that we use the same criteria to
determine the set of available packs.
One gotcha here is that we have to ignore non-local packs, since the
original version of `collect_pack_filenames()` only looks at the local
pack directory to collect existing packs.

In 73320e49ad (builtin/repack.c: only collect fully-formed packs,
2023-06-07), we switched the check for which packs to collect by
starting at the .idx files and looking for matching .pack files. This
avoids trying to repack pack-files that have not had their pack-indexes
installed yet.
However, it does cause maintenance to halt if we find the (problematic,
but not insurmountable) case of a .idx file without a corresponding
.pack file. In an environment where packfile maintenance is a critical
function, such a hard stop is costly and requires human intervention to
resolve (by deleting the .idx file).
This was not the case before. We successfully repacked through this
scenario until the recent change to scan for .idx files.
Further, if we are actually in a case where objects are missing, we
detect this at a different point during the reachability walk.
In other cases, Git prepares its list of packfiles by scanning .idx
files and then only adds it to the packfile list if the corresponding
.pack file exists. It even does so without a warning! (See
add_packed_git() in packfile.c for details.)
This case is much less likely to occur than the failures seen before
73320e49ad. Packfiles are "installed" by writing the .pack file before
the .idx and that process can be interrupted. Packfiles _should_ be
deleted by deleting the .idx first, followed by the .pack file, but
unlink_pack_path() does not do this: it deletes the .pack _first_,
allowing a window where this process could be interrupted. We leave the
consideration of changing this order as a separate concern. Knowing that
this condition is possible from interrupted Git processes and not other
tools lends some weight that Git should be more flexible around this
scenario.
Add a check to see if the .pack file exists before adding it to the list
for repacking. This will stop a number of maintenance failures seen in
production but fixed by deleting the .idx files.
This brings us closer to the case before 73320e49ad in that 'git
repack' will not fail when there is an orphaned .idx file, at least, not
due to the way we scan for packfiles. In the case that the .pack file
was erroneously deleted without copies of its objects in other installed
packfiles, then 'git repack' will fail due to the reachable object walk.
This does resolve the case where automated repacks will no longer be
halted on this case. The tests in t7700 show both these successful
scenarios and the case of failing if the .pack was truly required.

Now that `refs_for_each_fullref_in()` has the ability to avoid
enumerating references matching certain pattern(s), use that to avoid
visiting hidden refs when constructing the ref advertisement via
receive-pack.
Note that since this exclusion is best-effort, we still need
`show_ref_cb()` to check whether or not each reference is hidden or not
before including it in the advertisement.
As was the case when applying this same optimization to `upload-pack`,
`receive-pack`'s reference advertisement phase can proceed much quicker
by avoiding enumerating references that will not be part of the
advertisement.
(Below, we're still using linux.git with one hidden refs/pull/N ref per
commit):

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.

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
sections of the `packed-refs` file in certain cases.

git ls-tree has two prefixes: The one handed to cmd_ls_tree(), i.e. the
current subdirectory in the repository (if any) and the "display" prefix
used by the show_tree_*() functions. The option --full-name clears 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.
This allows chomp_prefix to become a local variable. Stop using
strlen(3) to determine its initial value -- we only care whether we got
a non-empty string, not precisely how long it is.
Rename ls_tree_prefix to prefix to demonstrate that we converted all

When reporting a problem, `git fsck` emits a message such as:
missing blob 1234abcd (:file)
However, this can be ambiguous when the problem is detected in the index
of a worktree other than the one in which `git fsck` was invoked. To
address this shortcoming, 592ec63b38 (fsck: mention file path for index
errors, 2023-02-24) enhanced the output to mention the path of the index
when the problem is detected in some other worktree:
missing blob 1234abcd (.git/worktrees/wt/index:file)
Unfortunately, the variable in fsck_index() which controls whether the
index path should be shown is misleadingly named "is_main_index" which
can be misunderstood as referring to the main worktree (i.e. the one
housing the .git/ repository) rather than to the current worktree (i.e.
the one in which `git fsck` was invoked). Avoid such potential confusion
by choosing a name more reflective of its actual purpose.

In 03267e8656 (commit: discard partial cache before (re-)reading it,
2022-11-08), a memory leak was plugged by discarding any partial index
before re-reading it.
The problem with this memory leak fix is that it was based on an
incomplete understanding of the logic introduced in 7168624c35 (Do not
generate full commit log message if it is not going to be used,
2007-11-28).
That logic was introduced to add a shortcut when committing without
editing the commit message interactively. A part of that logic was to
ensure that the index was read into memory:
if (!active_nr && read_cache() < 0)
die(...)
Translation to English: If the index has not yet been read, read it, and
if that fails, error out.
That logic was incorrect, though: It used `!active_nr` as an indicator
that the index was not yet read. Usually this is not a problem because
in the vast majority of instances, the index contains at least one
entry.
And it was natural to do it this way because at the time that condition
was introduced, the `index_state` structure had no explicit flag to
indicate that it was initialized: This flag was only introduced in
913e0e99b6 (unpack_trees(): protect the handcrafted in-core index from
read_cache(), 2008-08-23), but that commit did not adjust the code path
where no index file was found and a new, pristine index was initialized.
Now, when the index does not contain any entry (which is quite
common in Git's test suite because it starts quite a many repositories
from scratch), subsequent calls to `do_read_index()` will mistake the
index not to be initialized, and read it again unnecessarily.
This is a problem because after initializing the empty index e.g. the
`cache_tree` in that index could have been initialized before a
subsequent call to `do_read_index()` wants to ensure an initialized
index. And if that subsequent call mistakes the index not to have been
initialized, it would lead to leaked memory.
The correct fix for that memory leak is to adjust the condition so that
it does not mistake `active_nr == 0` to mean that the index has not yet
been read.
Using the `initialized` flag instead, we avoid that mistake, and as a
bonus we can fix a bug at the same time that was introduced by the
memory leak fix: When deleting all tracked files and then asking `git
commit -a -m ...` to commit the result, Git would internally update the
index, then discard and re-read the index undoing the update, and fail
to commit anything.

Plumb "struct key_value_info" through all code paths that end in
die_bad_number(), which lets us remove the helper functions that read
analogous values from "struct config_reader". As a result, nothing reads
config_reader.config_kvi any more, so remove that too.
In config.c, this requires changing the signature of
git_configset_get_value() to 'return' "kvi" in an out parameter so that
git_configset_get_<type>() can pass it to git_config_<type>(). Only
numeric types will use "kvi", so for non-numeric types (e.g.
git_configset_get_string()), pass NULL to indicate that the out
parameter isn't needed.
Outside of config.c, config callbacks now need to pass "ctx->kvi" to any
of the git_config_<type>() functions that parse a config string into a
number type. Included is a .cocci patch to make that refactor.
The only exceptional case is builtin/config.c, where git_config_<type>()
is called outside of a config callback (namely, on user-provided input),
so config source information has never been available. In this case,
die_bad_number() defaults to a generic, but perfectly descriptive
message. Let's provide a safe, non-NULL for "kvi" anyway, but make sure
not to change the message.

Pass config_context when parsing CLI config. To provide the .kvi member,
refactor out kvi_from_param() from the logic that caches CLI config in
configsets. Now that config_context and config_context.kvi is always
present when config machinery calls config callbacks, plumb "kvi" so
that we can remove all calls of current_config_scope() except for
trace2/*.c (which will be handled in a later commit), and remove all
other current_config_*() (the functions themselves and their calls).
Note that this results in .kvi containing a different, more complete
set of information than the mocked up "struct config_source" in
git_config_from_parameters().
Plumbing "kvi" reveals a few places where we've been doing the wrong
thing:
* git_config_parse_parameter() hasn't been setting config source
information, so plumb "kvi" there too.
* Several sites in builtin/config.c have been calling current_config_*()
functions outside of config callbacks (indirectly, via the
format_config() helper), which means they're reading state that isn't
set correctly:
* "git config --get-urlmatch --show-scope" iterates config to collect
values, but then attempts to display the scope after config
iteration, causing the "unknown" scope to be shown instead of the
config file's scope. It's clear that this wasn't intended: we knew
that "--get-urlmatch" couldn't show config source metadata, which is
why "--show-origin" was marked incompatible with "--get-urlmatch"
when it was introduced [1]. It was most likely a mistake that we
allowed "--show-scope" to sneak through.
Fix this by copying the "kvi" value in the collection phase so that
it can be read back later. This means that we can now support "git
config --get-urlmatch --show-origin", but that is left unchanged
for now.
* "git config --default" doesn't have config source metadata when
displaying the default value, so "--show-scope" also results in
"unknown", and "--show-origin" results in a BUG(). Fix this by
treating the default value as if it came from the command line (e.g.
like we do with "git -c" or "git config --file"), using
kvi_from_param().

Pass config_context to config callbacks in configset_iter(), trivially
setting the .kvi member to the cached key_value_info. Then, in config
callbacks that are only used with configsets, use the .kvi member to
replace calls to current_config_*(), and delete current_config_line()
because it has no remaining callers.
This leaves builtin/config.c and config.c as the only remaining users of
current_config_*().

Add a new "const struct config_context *ctx" arg to config_fn_t to hold
additional information about the config iteration operation.
config_context has a "struct key_value_info kvi" member that holds
metadata about the config source being read (e.g. what kind of config
source it is, the filename, etc). In this series, we're only interested
in .kvi, so we could have just used "struct key_value_info" as an arg,
but config_context makes it possible to add/adjust members in the future
without changing the config_fn_t signature. We could also consider other
ways of organizing the args (e.g. moving the config name and value into
config_context or key_value_info), but in my experiments, the
incremental benefit doesn't justify the added complexity (e.g. a
config_fn_t will sometimes invoke another config_fn_t but with a
different config value).
In subsequent commits, the .kvi member will replace the global "struct
config_reader" in config.c, making config iteration a global-free
operation. It requires much more work for the machinery to provide
meaningful values of .kvi, so for now, merely change the signature and
call sites, pass NULL as a placeholder value, and don't rely on the arg
in any meaningful way.
Most of the changes are performed by
contrib/coccinelle/config_fn_ctx.pending.cocci, which, for every
config_fn_t:
- Modifies the signature to accept "const struct config_context *ctx"
- Passes "ctx" to any inner config_fn_t, if needed
- Adds UNUSED attributes to "ctx", if needed
Most config_fn_t instances are easily identified by seeing if they are
called by the various config functions. Most of the remaining ones are
manually named in the .cocci patch. Manual cleanups are still needed,
but the majority of it is trivial; it's either adjusting config_fn_t
that the .cocci patch didn't catch, or adding forward declarations of
"struct config_context ctx" to make the signatures make sense.
The non-trivial changes are in cases where we are invoking a config_fn_t
outside of config machinery, and we now need to decide what value of
"ctx" to pass. These cases are:
- trace2/tr2_cfg.c:tr2_cfg_set_fl()
This is indirectly called by git_config_set() so that the trace2
machinery can notice the new config values and update its settings
using the tr2 config parsing function, i.e. tr2_cfg_cb().
- builtin/checkout.c:checkout_main()
This calls git_xmerge_config() as a shorthand for parsing a CLI arg.
This might be worth refactoring away in the future, since
git_xmerge_config() can call git_default_config(), which can do much
more than just parsing.
Handle them by creating a KVI_INIT macro that initializes "struct
key_value_info" to a reasonable default, and use that to construct the
"ctx" arg.

Much like with attributes files, sometimes programs would like to know
the location of configuration files at the global or system levels.
However, it isn't always clear where these may live, especially for the
system file, which may have been hard-coded at compile time or computed
dynamically based on the runtime prefix.
Since other parties cannot intuitively know how Git was compiled and
where it looks for these files, help them by providing variables that
can be queried. Because we have multiple paths for global config
values, print them in order from highest to lowest priority, and be sure
to split on newlines so that "git var -l" produces two entries for the
global value.
However, be careful not to split all values on newlines, since our
editor values could well contain such characters, and we don't want to
split them in such a case.
Note in the documentation that some values may contain multiple paths
and that callers should be prepared for that fact. This helps people
write code that will continue to work in the event we allow multiple
items elsewhere in the future.

Currently, there are some programs which would like to read and parse
the gitattributes files at the global or system levels. However, it's
not always obvious where these files live, especially for the system
file, which may have been hard-coded at compile time or computed
dynamically based on the runtime prefix.
It's not reasonable to expect all callers of Git to intuitively know
where the Git distributor or user has configured these locations to
be, so add some entries to allow us to determine their location. Honor
the GIT_ATTR_NOSYSTEM environment variable if one is specified. Expose
the accessor functions in a way that we can reuse them from within the
var code.
In order to make our paths consistent on Windows and also use the same
form as paths use in "git rev-parse", let's normalize the path before we
return it. This results in Windows-style paths that use slashes, which
is convenient for making our tests function in a consistent way across
platforms. Note that this requires that some of our values be freed, so
let's add a flag about whether the value needs to be freed and use it
accordingly.
