Ben Peart ca598d5f2a fsmonitor: force index write after full scan
fsmonitor currently only flags the index as dirty if the extension is being
added or removed. This is a performance optimization that recognizes you can
stat() a lot of files in less time than it takes to write out an updated index.

This patch makes a small enhancement and flags the index dirty if we end up
having to stat() all files and scan the entire working directory.  The assumption
being that must be expensive or you would not have turned on the feature.

Junio C Hamano 8b026edac3 Revert "Merge branch 'en/rename-directory-detection'"
This reverts commit e4bb62fa1e, reversing
changes made to 468165c1d8.

The topic appears to inflict severe regression in renaming merges,
even though the promise of it was that it would improve them.

We do not yet know which exact change in the topic was wrong, but in
the meantime, let's play it safe and revert it out of 'master'
before real Git-using projects are harmed.

Ben Peart d8579accfa fsmonitor: fix incorrect buffer size when printing version number
This is a trivial bug fix for passing the incorrect size to snprintf() when
outputting the version.  It should be passing the size of the destination buffer
rather than the size of the value being printed.

Derrick Stolee 3d5df01b5e commit-graph: build graph from starting commits
Teach git-commit-graph to read commits from stdin when the
--stdin-commits flag is specified. Commits reachable from these
commits are added to the graph. This is a much faster way to construct
the graph than inspecting all packed objects, but is restricted to
known tips.

For the Linux repository, 700,000+ commits were added to the graph
file starting from 'master' in 7-9 seconds, depending on the number
of packfiles in the repo (1, 24, or 120).

Derrick Stolee 177722b344 commit: integrate commit graph with commit parsing
Teach Git to inspect a commit graph file to supply the contents of a
struct commit when calling parse_commit_gently(). This implementation
satisfies all post-conditions on the struct commit, including loading
parents, the root tree, and the commit date.

If core.commitGraph is false, then do not check graph files.

In test script t5318-commit-graph.sh, add output-matching conditions on
read-only graph operations.

By loading commits from the graph instead of parsing commit buffers, we
save a lot of time on long commit walks. Here are some performance
results for a copy of the Linux repository where 'master' has 678,653
reachable commits and is behind 'origin/master' by 59,929 commits.

Clemens Buchacher 78a2d21231 completion: improve ls-files filter performance
From the output of ls-files, we remove all but the leftmost path
component and then we eliminate duplicates. We do this in a while loop,
which is a performance bottleneck when the number of iterations is large
(e.g. for 60000 files in linux.git).

$ COMP_WORDS=(git status -- ar) COMP_CWORD=3; time _git

real    0m11.876s
user    0m4.685s
sys     0m6.808s

Replacing the loop with the cut command improves performance
significantly:

$ COMP_WORDS=(git status -- ar) COMP_CWORD=3; time _git

real    0m1.372s
user    0m0.263s
sys     0m0.167s

The measurements were done with Msys2 bash, which is used by Git for
Windows.

When filtering the ls-files output we take care not to touch absolute
paths. This is redundant, because ls-files will never output absolute
paths. Remove the unnecessary operations.

The issue was reported here:
https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/1533

Taylor Blau 0a8950be5d builtin/config.c: treat type specifiers singularly
Internally, we represent `git config`'s type specifiers as a bitset
using OPT_BIT. 'bool' is 1<<0, 'int' is 1<<1, and so on. This technique
allows for the representation of multiple type specifiers in the `int
types` field, but this multi-representation is left unused.

In fact, `git config` will not accept multiple type specifiers at a
time, as indicated by:

  $ git config --int --bool some.section
  error: only one type at a time.

This patch uses `OPT_SET_INT` to prefer the _last_ mentioned type
specifier, so that the above command would instead be valid, and a
synonym of:

  $ git config --bool some.section

This change is motivated by two urges: (1) it does not make sense to
represent a singular type specifier internally as a bitset, only to
complain when there are multiple bits in the set. `OPT_SET_INT` is more
well-suited to this task than `OPT_BIT` is. (2) a future patch will
introduce `--type=<type>`, and we would like not to complain in the
following situation:

  $ git config --int --type=int

"git filter-branch" learned to use a different exit code to allow
the callers to tell the case where there was no new commits to
rewrite from other error cases.

Junio C Hamano cac5351363 Merge branch 'ab/pcre-v2'
Git can be built to use either v1 or v2 of the PCRE library, and so
far, the build-time configuration USE_LIBPCRE=YesPlease instructed
the build procedure to use v1, but now it means v2.  USE_LIBPCRE1
and USE_LIBPCRE2 can be used to explicitly choose which version to
use, as before.

* ab/pcre-v2:
  Makefile: make USE_LIBPCRE=YesPlease mean v2, not v1
  configure: detect redundant --with-libpcre & --with-libpcre1
  configure: fix a regression in PCRE v1 detection

Junio C Hamano 5d806b74d5 Merge branch 'ti/fetch-everything-local-optim'
A "git fetch" from a repository with insane number of refs into a
repository that is already up-to-date still wasted too many cycles
making many lstat(2) calls to see if these objects at the tips
exist as loose objects locally.  These lstat(2) calls are optimized
away by enumerating all loose objects beforehand.

It is unknown if the new strategy negatively affects existing use
cases, fetching into a repository with many loose objects from a
repository with small number of refs.

  fetch-pack.c: use oidset to check existence of loose object

Junio C Hamano e4bb62fa1e Merge branch 'en/rename-directory-detection'
Rename detection logic in "diff" family that is used in "merge" has
learned to guess when all of x/a, x/b and x/c have moved to z/a,
z/b and z/c, it is likely that x/d added in the meantime would also
want to move to z/d by taking the hint that the entire directory
'x' moved to 'z'.  A bug causing dirty files involved in a rename
to be overwritten during merge has also been fixed as part of this
work.

* en/rename-directory-detection: (29 commits)
  merge-recursive: ensure we write updates for directory-renamed file
  merge-recursive: avoid spurious rename/rename conflict from dir renames
  directory rename detection: new testcases showcasing a pair of bugs

Johannes Schindelin c71d8bb38a git_config_set: reuse empty sections
It can happen quite easily that the last setting in a config section is
removed, and to avoid confusion when there are comments in the config
about that section, we keep a lone section header, i.e. an empty
section.

Now that we use the `event_fn` callback, it is easy to add support for
re-using empty sections, so let's do that.

Note: t5512-ls-remote requires that this change is applied *after* the
patch "git config --unset: remove empty sections (in the common case)":
without that patch, there would be empty `transfer` and `uploadpack`
sections ready for reuse, but in the *wrong* order (and sconsequently,
t5512's "overrides work between mixed transfer/upload-pack hideRefs"
would fail).

Johannes Schindelin 22aedfccd0 git config --unset: remove empty sections (in the common case)
The original reasoning for not removing section headers upon removal of
the last entry went like this: the user could have added comments about
the section, or about the entries therein, and if there were other
comments there, we would not know whether we should remove them.

In particular, a concocted example was presented that looked like this
(and was added to t1300):

	# some generic comment on the configuration file itself
	# a comment specific to this "section" section.
	[section]
	# some intervening lines
	# that should also be dropped

	key = value
	# please be careful when you update the above variable

The ideal thing for `git config --unset section.key` in this case would
be to leave only the first line behind, because all the other comments
are now obsolete.

However, this is unfeasible, short of adding a complete Natural Language
Processing module to Git, which seems not only a lot of work, but a
totally unreasonable feature (for little benefit to most users).

Now, the real kicker about this problem is: most users do not edit their
config files at all! In their use case, the config looks like this
instead:

	[section]
		key = value

... and it is totally obvious what should happen if the entry is
removed: the entire section should vanish.

Let's generalize this observation to this conservative strategy: if we
are removing the last entry from a section, and there are no comments
inside that section nor surrounding it, then remove the entire section.
Otherwise behave as before: leave the now-empty section (including those
comments, even ones about the now-deleted entry).

We have to be extra careful to handle the case where more than one entry
is removed: any subset of them might be the last entries of their
respective sections (and if there are no comments in or around that
section, the section should be removed, too).
