With anticipatory tweaking for remotes defined in ~/.gitconfig
(e.g. "remote.origin.prune" set to true, even though there may or
may not actually be "origin" remote defined in a particular Git
repository), "git remote rename" and other commands misinterpreted
and behaved as if such a non-existing remote actually existed.
* js/remote-rename-with-half-configured-remote:
remote rename: more carefully determine whether a remote is configured
remote rename: demonstrate a bogus "remote exists" bug
One of the really nice features of the ~/.gitconfig file is that users
can override defaults by their own preferred settings for all of their
repositories.
One such default that some users like to override is whether the
"origin" remote gets auto-pruned or not. The user would simply call
git config --global remote.origin.prune true
and from now on all "origin" remotes would be pruned automatically when
fetching into the local repository.
There is just one catch: now Git thinks that the "origin" remote is
configured, even if the repository config has no [remote "origin"]
section at all, as it does not realize that the "prune" setting was
configured globally and that there really is no "origin" remote
configured in this repository.
That is a problem e.g. when renaming a remote to a new name, when Git
may be fooled into thinking that there is already a remote of that new
name.
Let's fix this by paying more attention to *where* the remote settings
came from: if they are configured in the local repository config, we
must not overwrite them. If they were configured elsewhere, we cannot
overwrite them to begin with, as we only write the repository config.
There is only one caller of remote_is_configured() (in `git fetch`) that
may want to take remotes into account even if they were configured
outside the repository config; all other callers essentially try to
prevent the Git command from overwriting settings in the repository
config.
To accommodate that fact, the remote_is_configured() function now
requires a parameter that states whether the caller is interested in all
remotes, or only in those that were configured in the repository config.
Many thanks to Jeff King whose tireless review helped with settling for
nothing less than the current strategy.

This is only a code simplification and slight performance improvement -
the result is unchanged, as the redundant refmaps are subsequently
removed by the invocation to "ref_remove_duplicates" anyway.

Now we have identified three callchains that have a set of refs that
they want to show their <old, new> object names in an aligned output,
we can replace their reference to the constant TRANSPORT_SUMMARY_WIDTH
with a helper function call to transport_summary_width() that takes
the set of ref as a parameter. This step does not yet iterate over
the refs and compute, which is left as an exercise to the readers.

The leaf function on the "fetch" side that uses TRANSPORT_SUMMARY_WIDTH
constant is builtin/fetch.c::format_display() and it has two distinct
callchains. The one that reports the primary result of fetch originates
at store_updated_refs(); the other one that reports the pruning of
the remote-tracking refs originates at prune_refs().
Teach these two places to pass summary_width down the callchain,
just like we did for the "push" side in the previous commit.

When we auto-follow tags in a fetch, we look at all of the
tags advertised by the remote and fetch ones where we don't
already have the tag, but we do have the object it peels to.
This involves a lot of calls to has_sha1_file(), some of
which we can reasonably expect to fail. Since 45e8a74
(has_sha1_file: re-check pack directory before giving up,
2013-08-30), this may cause many calls to
reprepare_packed_git(), which is potentially expensive.
This has gone unnoticed for several years because it
requires a fairly unique setup to matter:
1. You need to have a lot of packs on the client side to
make reprepare_packed_git() expensive (the most
expensive part is finding duplicates in an unsorted
list, which is currently quadratic).
2. You need a large number of tag refs on the server side
that are candidates for auto-following (i.e., that the
client doesn't have). Each one triggers a re-read of
the pack directory.
3. Under normal circumstances, the client would
auto-follow those tags and after one large fetch, (2)
would no longer be true. But if those tags point to
history which is disconnected from what the client
otherwise fetches, then it will never auto-follow, and
those candidates will impact it on every fetch.
So when all three are true, each fetch pays an extra
O(nr_tags * nr_packs^2) cost, mostly in string comparisons
on the pack names. This was exacerbated by 47bf4b0
(prepare_packed_git_one: refactor duplicate-pack check,
2014-06-30) which uses a slightly more expensive string
check, under the assumption that the duplicate check doesn't
happen very often (and it shouldn't; the real problem here
is how often we are calling reprepare_packed_git()).
This patch teaches fetch to use HAS_SHA1_QUICK to sacrifice
accuracy for speed, in cases where we might be racy with a
simultaneous repack. This is similar to the fix in 0eeb077
(index-pack: avoid excessive re-reading of pack directory,
2015-06-09). As with that case, it's OK for has_sha1_file()
occasionally say "no I don't have it" when we do, because
the worst case is not a corruption, but simply that we may
fail to auto-follow a tag that points to it.
Here are results from the included perf script, which sets
up a situation similar to the one described above:

We'll be introducing a new way to decide the default abbreviation
length by initialising DEFAULT_ABBREV to -1 to signal the first call
to "find unique abbreviation" codepath to compute a reasonable value
based on the number of objects we have to avoid collisions.
We have long relied on DEFAULT_ABBREV being a positive concrete
value that is used as the abbreviation length when no extra
configuration or command line option has overridden it. Some
codepaths wants to use such a positive concrete default value
even before making their first request to actually trigger the
computation for the auto sized default.
Introduce FALLBACK_DEFAULT_ABBREV and use it to the code that
attempts to align the report from "git fetch". For now, this
macro is also used to initialize the default_abbrev variable,
but the auto-sizing code will use -1 and then use the value of
FALLBACK_DEFAULT_ABBREV as the starting point of auto-sizing.

* mh/ref-iterators:

dir_iterator: new API for iterating over a directory tree
for_each_reflog(): don't abort for bad references
do_for_each_ref(): reimplement using reference iteration
refs: introduce an iterator interface

remote rm: handle symbolic refs correctly
delete_refs(): add a flags argument
refs: use name "prefix" consistently
do_for_each_ref(): move docstring to the header file
refs: remove unnecessary "extern" keywords
The number of variants of check_everything_connected has
grown over the years, so that the "real" function takes
several possibly-zero, possibly-NULL arguments. We hid the
complexity behind some wrapper functions, but this doesn't
scale well when we want to add new options.
If we add more wrapper variants to handle the new options,
then we can get a combinatorial explosion when those options
might be used together (right now nobody wants to use both
"shallow" and "transport" together, so we get by with just a
few wrappers).
If instead we add new parameters to each function, each of
which can have a default value, then callers who want the
defaults end up with confusing invocations like:
check_everything_connected(fn, 0, data, -1, 0, NULL);
where it is unclear which parameter is which (and every
caller needs updated when we add new options).
Instead, let's add a struct to hold all of the optional
parameters. This is a little more verbose for the callers
(who have to declare the struct and fill it in), but it
makes their code much easier to follow, because every option
is named as it is set (and unused options do not have to be
mentioned at all).
Note that we could also stick the iteration function and its
callback data into the option struct, too. But since those
are required for each call, by avoiding doing so, we can let
very simple callers just pass "NULL" for the options and not
worry about the struct at all.
While we're touching each site, let's also rename the
function to check_connected(). The existing name was quite
long, and not all of the wrappers even used the full name.

In the "remote -> local" line, if either ref is a substring of the

example
abc -> origin/abc
refs/pull/123/head -> pull/123
become
abc -> origin/*
refs/*/head -> pull/123
Activated with fetch.output=compact.
For the record, this output is not perfect. A single giant ref can
push all refs very far to the right and likely be wrapped around. We
may have a few options:
- exclude these long lines smarter
- break the line after "->", exclude it from column width calculation
- implement a new format, { -> origin/}foo, which makes the problem
go away at the cost of a bit harder to read
- reverse all the arrows so we have "* <- looong-ref", again still
hard to read.

In git-fetch, --depth argument is always relative with the latest
remote refs. This makes it a bit difficult to cover this use case,
where the user wants to make the shallow history, say 3 levels
deeper. It would work if remote refs have not moved yet, but nobody
can guarantee that, especially when that use case is performed a
couple months after the last clone or "git fetch --depth". Also,
modifying shallow boundary using --depth does not work well with
clones created by --since or --not.
This patch fixes that. A new argument --deepen=<N> will add <N> more (*)
parent commits to the current history regardless of where remote refs
are.
Have/Want negotiation is still respected. So if remote refs move, the
server will send two chunks: one between "have" and "want" and another
to extend shallow history. In theory, the client could send no "want"s
in order to get the second chunk only. But the protocol does not allow
that. Either you send no want lines, which means ls-remote; or you
have to send at least one want line that carries deep-relative to the
server..
The main work was done by Dongcan Jiang. I fixed it up here and there.
And of course all the bugs belong to me.
(*) We could even support --deepen=<N> where <N> is negative. In that
case we can cut some history from the shallow clone. This operation
(and --depth=<shorter depth>) does not require interaction with remote
side (and more complicated to implement as a result).

This commit does not touch other calls to fopen() that want to
write files:
- commands that write to working tree files (core.sharedRepository
does not affect permission bits of working tree files),
e.g. .rej file created by "apply --reject", result of applying a
previous conflict resolution by "rerere", "git merge-file".
- git am, when splitting mails (git-am correctly cleans up its directory
after finishing, so there is no need to share those files between users)
- git submodule clone, when writing the .git file, because the file
will not be overwritten
- git_terminal_prompt() in compat/terminal.c, because it is not writing to
a file at all
- git diff --output, because the output file is clearly not intended to be
shared between the users of the current repository
- git fast-import, when writing a crash report, because the reports' file
names are unique due to an embedded process ID
- mailinfo() in mailinfo.c, because the output is clearly not intended to
be shared between the users of the current repository
- check_or_regenerate_marks() in remote-testsvn.c, because this is only
used for Git's internal testing
- git fsck, when writing lost&found blobs (this should probably be
changed, but left as a low-hanging fruit for future contributors).
Note that this patch does not touch callers of write_file() and
write_file_gently(), which would benefit from the same scrutiny as
to usage in shared repositories. Most notable users are branch,
daemon, submodule & worktree, and a worrisome call in transport.c
when updating one ref (which ignores the shared flag).
