There are a few callback functions which are used with the fsck code,
but it's natural that not all callbacks need all parameters. For
reporting, even something as obvious as "the oid of the object which had
a problem" is not always used, as some callers are only checking a
single object in the first place. And for both reporting and walking,
things like void data pointers and the fsck_options aren't always
necessary.

In 37fec86a83 (packfile: abstract away hash constant values,
2018-05-02), `nth_packed_object_id()` started using the variable
`the_hash_algo->rawsz` instead of a fixed constant when trying to
compute an offset into the ".idx" file for some object position.
This can lead to surprising truncation when looking for an object
towards the end of a large enough pack, like the following:
(gdb) p hashsz
$1 = 20
(gdb) p n
$2 = 215043814
(gdb) p hashsz * n
$3 = 5908984
, which is a debugger session broken on a known-bad call to the
`nth_packed_object_id()` function.
This behavior predates 37fec86a83, and is original to the v2 index
format, via: 74e34e1fca (sha1_file.c: learn about index version 2,
2007-04-09).
This is due to §6.4.4.1 of the C99 standard, which states that an
untyped integer constant will take the first type in which the value can
be accurately represented, among `int`, `long int`, and `long long int`.
Since 20 can be represented as an `int`, and `n` is a 32-bit unsigned
integer, the resulting computation is defined by §6.3.1.8, and the
(signed) integer value representing `n` is converted to an unsigned
type, meaning that `20 * n` (for `n` having type `uint32_t`) is
equivalent to a multiplication between two unsigned 32-bit integers.
When multiplying a sufficiently large `n`, the resulting value can
exceed 2^32-1, wrapping around and producing an invalid result. Let's
follow the example in f86f769550 (compute pack .idx byte offsets using
size_t, 2020-11-13) and replace this computation with `st_mult()`, which
will ensure that the computation is done using 64-bits.
While here, guard the corresponding computation for packs with v1
indexes, too. Though the likelihood of seeing a bug there is much
smaller, since (a) v1 indexes are generated far less frequently than v2
indexes, and (b) they all correspond to packs no larger than 2 GiB, so
having enough objects to trigger this overflow is unlikely if not
impossible.

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.

In a similar fashion as a previous commit, teach `upload-pack` to avoid
enumerating hidden references where possible.
Note, however, that there are certain cases where cannot avoid
enumerating even hidden references, in particular when either of:
- `uploadpack.allowTipSHA1InWant`, or
- `uploadpack.allowReachableSHA1InWant`
are set, corresponding to `ALLOW_TIP_SHA1` and `ALLOW_REACHABLE_SHA1`,
respectively.
When either of these bits are set, upload-pack's `is_our_ref()` function
needs to consider the `HIDDEN_REF` bit of the referent's object flags.
So we must visit all references, including the hidden ones, in order to
mark their referents with the `HIDDEN_REF` bit.
When neither `ALLOW_TIP_SHA1` nor `ALLOW_REACHABLE_SHA1` are set, the
`is_our_ref()` function considers only the `OUR_REF` bit, and not the
`HIDDEN_REF` one. `OUR_REF` is applied via `mark_our_ref()`, and only
to objects at the tips of non-hidden references, so we do not need to
visit hidden references in this case.

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);

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

(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.).

The function `find_reference_location()` is used to perform a
binary search-like function over the contents of a repository's
`$GIT_DIR/packed-refs` file.
The search it implements is unlike a standard binary search in that the
records it searches over are not of a fixed width, so the comparison
must locate the end of a record before comparing it.
Extract the core routine of `find_reference_location()` in order to
implement a function in the following patch which will find the first
location in the `packed-refs` file that *doesn't* match the given
pattern.
The behavior of `find_reference_location()` is unchanged.

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/'

Range (min … max): 104.7 ms … 109.1 ms 27 runs
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.

`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`).

We did not bother to clean up at all in `git branch` or `git tag`, and

In `reach_filter()`, we pop all commits from the reachable lists,
leaving them empty. But because we're operating on a list pointer that
was passed by value, the original `filter.reachable_from` and
`filter.unreachable_from` pointers are left dangling.
As is the case with the previous commit, nobody touches either of these
fields after calling `reach_filter()`, so leaving them dangling is OK.

Provide a sane initialization value for `struct ref_filter`, which in a
subsequent patch will be used to initialize a new field.
In the meantime, ensure that the `ref_filter` struct used in the
test-helper's `cmd__reach()` is zero-initialized. The lack of
initialization is OK, since `commit_contains()` only looks at the single

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:
$ git.compile commit-graph verify
Verifying commits in commit graph: 100% (136268/136268), done.

When the `verify_commit_graph()` function was extended to support
commit-graph chains via 3da4b609bb (commit-graph: verify chains with
--shallow mode, 2019-06-18), it did so by recursively calling itself on
each layer of the commit-graph chain.
In practice this poses no issues, since commit-graph chains do not loop,
and there are few enough of them that adding additional frames to the
stack is not a problem.
A future commit will consolidate the progress output from `git
commit-graph verify` when verifying chained commit-graphs to print a
single line instead of one progress meter per commit-graph layer.
Prepare for this by extracting a routine to verify a single layer of a
commit-graph.
Note that `verify_commit_graph()` is still recursive after this patch,
but this will change in the subsequent patch.

In a similar spirit as the previous commit, address a bug where `git
fsck` produces output when calling `git multi-pack-index verify` even
when invoked with `--no-progress`.
$ git.compile fsck --connectivity-only --no-progress --no-dangling
Verifying OID order in multi-pack-index: 100% (605677/605677), done.
Sorting objects by packfile: 100% (605678/605678), done.
Verifying object offsets: 100% (605678/605678), done.
The three lines produced by `git fsck` come from `git multi-pack-index
verify`, but should be squelched due to `--no-progress`.
The MIDX machinery learned to generate these progress messages as early
as 430efb8a74 (midx: add progress indicators in multi-pack-index
verify, 2019-03-21), but did not respect `--progress` or `--no-progress`
until ad60096d1c (midx: honor the MIDX_PROGRESS flag in
verify_midx_file, 2019-10-21).
But the `git multi-pack-index verify` step was added to fsck in
66ec0390e7 (fsck: verify multi-pack-index, 2018-09-13), pre-dating any
of the above patches.

Since e0fd51e1d7 (fsck: verify commit-graph, 2018-06-27), `fsck` runs
`git commit-graph verify` to check the integrity of any commit-graph(s).
Originally, the `git commit-graph verify` step would always print to
stdout/stderr, regardless of whether or not `fsck` was invoked with
`--[no-]progress` or not. But in 7371612255 (commit-graph: add
--[no-]progress to write and verify, 2019-08-26), the commit-graph
machinery learned the `--[no-]progress` option, though `fsck` was not
updated to pass this new flag (or not).
This led to seeing output from running `git fsck`, even with
`--no-progress` on repositories that have a commit-graph:
$ git.compile fsck --connectivity-only --no-progress --no-dangling
Verifying commits in commit graph: 100% (4356/4356), done.
Verifying commits in commit graph: 100% (131912/131912), done.

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.
