Some rough edges in the sparse-checkout feature, especially around
the cone mode, have been cleaned up.

sparse-checkout: fix cone mode behavior mismatch
sparse-checkout: improve docs around 'set' in cone mode
sparse-checkout: escape all glob characters on write
sparse-checkout: use C-style quotes in 'list' subcommand
sparse-checkout: unquote C-style strings over --stdin
sparse-checkout: write escaped patterns in cone mode

sparse-checkout: warn on globs in cone patterns
sparse-checkout: detect short patterns
sparse-checkout: cone mode does not recognize "**"
sparse-checkout: fix documentation typo for core.sparseCheckoutCone
clone: fix --sparse option with URLs
sparse-checkout: create leading directories
t1091: improve here-docs
t1091: use check_files to reduce boilerplate
Traditionally, we avoided threaded grep while searching in objects
(as opposed to files in the working tree) as accesses to the object
layer is not thread-safe. This limitation is getting lifted.
* mt/threaded-grep-in-object-store:
grep: use no. of cores as the default no. of threads
grep: move driver pre-load out of critical section
grep: re-enable threads in non-worktree case
grep: protect packed_git [re-]initialization
grep: allow submodule functions to run in parallel
submodule-config: add skip_if_read option to repo_read_gitmodules()
grep: replace grep_read_mutex by internal obj read lock
object-store: allow threaded access to object reading
replace-object: make replace operations thread-safe
grep: fix racy calls in grep_objects()
grep: fix race conditions at grep_submodule()
grep: fix race conditions on userdiff calls
The intention of the special "cone mode" in the sparse-checkout
feature is to always match the same patterns that are matched by the
same sparse-checkout file as when cone mode is disabled.
When a file path is given to "git sparse-checkout set" in cone mode,
then the cone mode improperly matches the file as a recursive path.
When setting the skip-worktree bits, files were not expecting the
MATCHED_RECURSIVE response, and hence these were left out of the
matched cone.
Fix this bug by checking for MATCHED_RECURSIVE in addition to MATCHED
and add a test that prevents regression.

The code recently added in this release to move to the entry beyond
the ones in the same directory in the index in the sparse-cone mode
did not count the number of entries to skip over incorrectly, which
has been corrected.
* ds/sparse-cone:
.mailmap: fix GGG authoship screwup
unpack-trees: correctly compute result count
The Undefined Behavior Sanitizer in clang-11 seems to have learned a new
trick: it complains about computing offsets from a NULL pointer, even if
that offset is 0. This causes numerous test failures. For example, from
t1090:
unpack-trees.c:1355:41: runtime error: applying zero offset to null pointer
...
not ok 6 - in partial clone, sparse checkout only fetches needed blobs
The code in question looks like this:
struct cache_entry **cache_end = cache + nr;
...
while (cache != cache_end)
and we sometimes pass in a NULL and 0 for "cache" and "nr". This is
conceptually fine, as "cache_end" would be equal to "cache" in this
case, and we wouldn't enter the loop at all. But computing even a zero
offset violates the C standard. And given the fact that UBSan is
noticing this behavior, this might be a potential problem spot if the
compiler starts making unexpected assumptions based on undefined
behavior.
So let's just avoid it, which is pretty easy. In some cases we can just
switch to iterating with a numeric index (as we do in sequencer.c here).
In other cases (like the cache_end one) the use of an end pointer is
more natural; we can keep that by just explicitly checking for the
NULL/0 case when assigning the end pointer.
Note that there are two ways you can write this latter case, checking
for the pointer:
cache_end = cache ? cache + nr : cache;
or the size:
cache_end = nr ? cache + nr : cache;
For the case of a NULL/0 ptr/len combo, they are equivalent. But writing
it the second way (as this patch does) has the property that if somebody
were to incorrectly pass a NULL pointer with a non-zero length, we'd
continue to notice and segfault, rather than silently pretending the
length was zero.

The code that tries to skip over the entries for the paths in a
single directory using the cache-tree was not careful enough
against corrupt index file.
* es/unpack-trees-oob-fix:
unpack-trees: watch for out-of-range index position
Currently, submodule-config.c doesn't have an externally accessible
function to read gitmodules only if it wasn't already read. But this
exact behavior is internally implemented by gitmodules_read_check(), to
perform a lazy load. Let's merge this function with
repo_read_gitmodules() adding a 'skip_if_read' which allows both
internal and external callers to access this functionality. This
simplifies a little the code. The added option will also be used in
the following patch.

The clear_ce_flags_dir() method processes the cache entries within
a common directory. The returned int is the number of cache entries
processed by that directory. When using the sparse-checkout feature
in cone mode, we can skip the pattern matching for entries in the
directories that are entirely included or entirely excluded.
eb42feca (unpack-trees: hash less in cone mode, 2019-11-21)
introduced this performance feature. The old mechanism relied on
the counts returned by calling clear_ce_flags_1(), but the new
mechanism calculated the number of rows by subtracting "cache_end"
from "cache" to find the size of the range. However, the equation
is wrong because it divides by sizeof(struct cache_entry *). This
is not how pointer arithmetic works!
A coverity build of Git for Windows in preparation for the 2.25.0
release found this issue with the warning, "Pointer differences,
such as cache_end - cache, are automatically scaled down by the
size (8 bytes) of the pointed-to type (struct cache_entry *).
Most likely, the division by sizeof(struct cache_entry *) is
extraneous and should be eliminated." This warning is correct.
This leaves us with the question "how did this even work?" The
problem that occurs with this incorrect pointer arithmetic is
a performance-only bug, and a very slight one at that. Since
the entry count returned by clear_ce_flags_dir() is reduced by
a factor of 8, the loop in clear_ce_flags_1() will re-process
entries from those directories.
By inserting global counters into unpack-tree.c and tracing
them with trace2_data_intmax() (in a private change, for
testing), I was able to see count how many times the loop inside
clear_ce_flags_1() processed an entry and how many times
clear_ce_flags_dir() was called. Each of these are reduced by at
least a factor of 8 with the current change. A factor larger
than 8 happens when multiple levels of directories are repeated.
Specifically, in the Linux kernel repo, the command
git sparse-checkout set LICENSES
restricts the working directory to only the files at root and
in the LICENSES directory. Here are the measured counts:
clear_ce_flags_1 loop blocks:
Before: 11,520
After: 1,621
clear_ce_flags_dir calls:
Before: 7,048
After: 606
While these are dramatic counts, the time spent in
clear_ce_flags_1() is under one millisecond in each case, so
the improvement is not measurable as an end-to-end time.

It's possible in a case where the index file contains a tree extension
but no blobs within that tree exist for index_pos_by_traverse_info() to
segfault. If the name_entry passed into index_pos_by_traverse_info() has
no blobs inside, AND is alphabetically later than all blobs currently in
the index file, index_pos_by_traverse_info() will segfault. For example,
an index file which looks something like this:
aaa#0
bbb/aaa#0
[Extensions]
TREE: zzz
In this example, 'index_name_pos(..., "zzz/", ...)' will return '-4',
indicating that "zzz/" could be inserted at position 3. However, when
the checks which ensure that the insertion position of "zzz/" look for a
blob at that position beginning with "zzz/", the index cache is accessed
out of range, causing a segfault.
This kind of index state is not typically generated during user
operations, and is in fact an edge case of the state being checked for
in the conditional where it was added. However, since the entry for the
BUG() line is ambiguous, tell some additional context to help Git
developers debug the failure later. When we know the name of the dir we
were trying to look up, it becomes possible to examine the index file
in a hex util to determine what went wrong; the position gives a hint
about where to start looking.

check_updates() has a lot of code that repeatedly checks whether
o->update or o->dry_run are set. (Note that o->dry_run is a
near-synonym for !o->update, but not quite as per commit 2c9078d05b
("unpack-trees: add the dry_run flag to unpack_trees_options",
2011-05-25).) In fact, this function almost turns into a no-op whenever
the condition
!o->update || o->dry_run
is met. Simplify the code by checking this condition at the beginning
of the function, and when it is true, do the few things that are
relevant and return early.
There are a few things that make the conversion not quite obvious:
* The fact that check_updates() does not actually turn into a no-op
when updates are not wanted may be slightly surprising. However,
commit 33ecf7eb61 (Discard "deleted" cache entries after using them
to update the working tree, 2008-02-07) put the discarding of
unused cache entries in check_updates() so we still need to keep
the call to remove_marked_cache_entries(). It's possible this
call belongs in another function, but it is certainly needed as
tests will fail if it is removed.
* The original called remove_scheduled_dirs() unconditionally.
Technically, commit 7847892716 (unlink_entry(): introduce
schedule_dir_for_removal(), 2009-02-09) should have made that call
conditional, but it didn't matter in practice because
remove_scheduled_dirs() becomes a no-op when all the calls to
unlink_entry() are skipped. As such, we do not need to call it.
* When (o->dry_run && o->update), the original would have two calls
to git_attr_set_direction() surrounding a bunch of skipped updates.
These two calls to git_attr_set_direction() cancel each other out
and thus can be omitted when o->dry_run is true just as they
already are when !o->update.
* The code would previously call setup_collided_checkout_detection()
and report_collided_checkout() even when o->dry_run. However, this
was just an expensive no-op because
setup_collided_checkout_detection() merely cleared the CE_MATCHED
flag for each cache entry, and report_collided_checkout() reported
which ones had it set. Since a dry-run would skip all the
checkout_entry() calls, CE_MATCHED would never get set and thus
no collisions would be reported. Since we can't detect the
collisions anyway without doing updates, skipping the collisions
detection setup and reporting is an optimization.
* The code previously would call get_progress() and
display_progress() even when (!o->update || o->dry_run). This
served to show how long it took to skip all the updates, which is
somewhat useless. Since we are skipping the updates, we can skip
showing how long it takes to skip them.

unpack-trees: skip stat on fsmonitor-valid files
A `git clone` will end with exit code 0 when `merged_entry()` returns a
positive value during a call of `unpack_trees()` to `traverse_trees()`.
The reason is that `unpack_trees()` will interpret a positive value not
to be an error.
The problem is, however, that `add_index_entry()` (which is called by
`merged_entry()` can report an error, and we really should fail the
entire clone in such a case.
Let's fix this problem, in preparation for a Windows-specific patch
disallowing `mkdir()` with directory names that contain a trailing space
(which is illegal on NTFS): we want `git clone` to abort when a path
cannot be checked out due to that condition.

The sparse-checkout builtin used 'git read-tree -mu HEAD' to update the
skip-worktree bits in the index and to update the working directory.
This extra process is overly complex, and prone to failure. It also
requires that we write our changes to the sparse-checkout file before
trying to update the index.
Remove this extra process call by creating a direct call to
unpack_trees() in the same way 'git read-tree -mu HEAD' does. In
addition, provide an in-memory list of patterns so we can avoid
reading from the sparse-checkout file. This allows us to test a
proposed change to the file before writing to it.
An earlier version of this patch included a bug when the 'set' command
failed due to the "Sparse checkout leaves no entry on working directory"
error. It would not rollback the index.lock file, so the replay of the
old sparse-checkout specification would fail. A test in t1091 now
covers that scenario.

The sparse-checkout feature in "cone mode" can use the fact that
the recursive patterns are "connected" to the root via parent
patterns to decide if a directory is entirely contained in the
sparse-checkout or entirely removed.
In these cases, we can skip hashing the paths within those
directories and simply set the skipworktree bit to the correct
value.

The parent and recursive patterns allowed by the "cone mode"
option in sparse-checkout are restrictive enough that we
can avoid using the regex parsing. Everything is based on
prefix matches, so we can use hashsets to store the prefixes
from the sparse-checkout file. When checking a path, we can
strip path entries from the path and check the hashset for
an exact match.
As a test, I created a cone-mode sparse-checkout file for the
Linux repository that actually includes every file. This was
constructed by taking every folder in the Linux repo and creating
the pattern pairs here:
/$folder/
!/$folder/*/
This resulted in a sparse-checkout file sith 8,296 patterns.
Running 'git read-tree -mu HEAD' on this file had the following
performance:
core.sparseCheckout=false: 0.21 s (0.00 s)
core.sparseCheckout=true: 3.75 s (3.50 s)
core.sparseCheckoutCone=true: 0.23 s (0.01 s)
The times in parentheses above correspond to the time spent
in the first clear_ce_flags() call, according to the trace2
performance traces.
While this example is contrived, it demonstrates how these
patterns can slow the sparse-checkout feature.

When Git updates the working directory with the sparse-checkout
feature enabled, the unpack_trees() method calls clear_ce_flags()
to update the skip-wortree bits on the cache entries. This
check can be expensive, depending on the patterns used.
Add trace2 regions around the method, including some flag
information, so we can get granular performance data during
experiments. This data will be used to measure improvements
to the pattern-matching algorithms for sparse-checkout.

The index might be aware that a file hasn't modified via fsmonitor, but
unpack-trees did not pay attention to it and checked via ie_match_stat
which can be inefficient on certain filesystems. This significantly slows
down commands that run oneway_merge, like checkout and reset --hard.
This patch makes oneway_merge check whether a file is considered
unchanged through fsmonitor and skips ie_match_stat on it. unpack-trees
also now correctly copies over fsmonitor validity state from the source
index. Finally, for correctness, we force a refresh of fsmonitor state in
tweak_fsmonitor.
After this change, commands like stash (that use reset --hard
internally) go from 8s or more to ~2s on a 250k file repository on a

The internal code originally invented for ".gitignore" processing
got reshuffled and renamed to make it less tied to "excluding" and
stress more that it is about "matching", as it has been reused for
things like sparse checkout specification that want to check if a
path is "included".
* ds/include-exclude:
unpack-trees: rename 'is_excluded_from_list()'
treewide: rename 'exclude' methods to 'pattern'
treewide: rename 'EXCL_FLAG_' to 'PATTERN_FLAG_'
treewide: rename 'struct exclude_list' to 'struct pattern_list'
treewide: rename 'struct exclude' to 'struct path_pattern'
Teach the lazy clone machinery that there can be more than one
promisor remote and consult them in order when downloading missing
objects on demand.
* cc/multi-promisor:
Move core_partial_clone_filter_default to promisor-remote.c
Move repository_format_partial_clone to promisor-remote.c
Remove fetch-object.{c,h} in favor of promisor-remote.{c,h}
remote: add promisor and partial clone config to the doc
partial-clone: add multiple remotes in the doc
t0410: test fetching from many promisor remotes
builtin/fetch: remove unique promisor remote limitation
promisor-remote: parse remote.*.partialclonefilter
Use promisor_remote_get_direct() and has_promisor_remote()
promisor-remote: use repository_format_partial_clone
promisor-remote: add promisor_remote_reinit()
promisor-remote: implement promisor_remote_get_direct()
Add initial support for many promisor remotes
fetch-object: make functions return an error code
t0410: remove pipes after git commands
The first consumer of pattern-matching filenames was the
.gitignore feature. In that context, storing a list of patterns
as a 'struct exclude_list' makes sense. However, the
sparse-checkout feature then adopted these structures and methods,
but with the opposite meaning: these patterns match the files
that should be included!
Now that this library is renamed to use 'struct pattern_list'
and 'struct pattern', we can now rename the method used by
the sparse-checkout feature to determine which paths should
appear in the working directory.
The method is_excluded_from_list() is only used by the
sparse-checkout logic in unpack-trees and list-objects-filter.
The confusing part is that it returned 1 for "excluded" (i.e.
it matches the list of exclusions) but that really manes that
the path matched the list of patterns for _inclusion_ in the
working directory.
Rename the method to be path_matches_pattern_list() and have
it return an explicit 'enum pattern_match_result'. Here, the
values MATCHED = 1, UNMATCHED = 0, and UNDECIDED = -1 agree
with the previous integer values. This shift allows future
consumers to better understand what the retur values mean,
and provides more type checking for handling those values.

but with the opposite meaning: these patterns match the files

It would be clearer to rename this entire library as a "pattern
matching" library, and the callers apply exclusion/inclusion
logic accordingly based on their needs.
This commit renames several methods defined in dir.h to make
more sense with the renamed 'struct exclude_list' to 'struct
pattern_list' and 'struct exclude' to 'struct path_pattern':
* last_exclude_matching() -> last_matching_pattern()
* parse_exclude() -> parse_path_pattern()
In addition, the word 'exclude' was replaced with 'pattern'
in the methods below:
* add_exclude_list()
* add_excludes_from_file_to_list()
* add_excludes_from_file()
* add_excludes_from_blob_to_list()
* add_exclude()
* clear_exclude_list()
A few methods with the word "exclude" remain. These will
be handled seperately. In particular, the method
"is_excluded()" is concretely about the .gitignore file
relative to a specific directory. This is the important
boundary between library and consumer: is_excluded() cares
about .gitignore, but is_excluded() calls
last_matching_pattern() to make that decision.

Codepaths to walk tree objects have been audited for integer
overflows and hardened.
* jk/tree-walk-overflow:
tree-walk: harden make_traverse_path() length computations
tree-walk: add a strbuf wrapper for make_traverse_path()
tree-walk: accept a raw length for traverse_path_len()
tree-walk: use size_t consistently
tree-walk: drop oid from traverse_info
setup_traverse_info(): stop copying oid
The make_traverse_path() function isn't very careful about checking its
output buffer boundaries. In fact, it doesn't even _know_ the size of
the buffer it's writing to, and just assumes that the caller used
traverse_path_len() correctly. And even then we assume that our
traverse_info.pathlen components are all correct, and just blindly write
into the buffer.
Let's improve this situation a bit:
- have the caller pass in their allocated buffer length, which we'll
check against our own computations
- check for integer underflow as we do our backwards-insertion of
pathnames into the buffer
- check that we do not run out items in our list to traverse before
we've filled the expected number of bytes
None of these should be triggerable in practice (especially since our
switch to size_t everywhere in a previous commit), but it doesn't hurt
to check our assumptions.

All but one of the callers of make_traverse_path() allocate a new heap
buffer to store the path. Let's give them an easy way to write to a
strbuf, which saves them from computing the length themselves (which is
especially tricky when they want to add to the path). It will also make
it easier for us to change the make_traverse_path() interface in a
future patch to improve its bounds-checking.

We take a "struct name_entry", but only care about the length of the
path name. Let's just take that length directly, making it easier to use
the function from callers that sometimes do not have a name_entry at
all.

We store and manipulate the cumulative traverse_info.pathlen as an
"int", which can overflow when we are fed ridiculously long pathnames
(e.g., ones at the edge of 2GB or 4GB, even if the individual tree entry
names are smaller than that). The results can be confusing, though
after some prodding I was not able to use this integer overflow to cause
an under-allocated buffer.
Let's consistently use size_t to generate and store these, and make
sure our addition doesn't overflow.

As the previous commit shows, the presence of an oid in each level of
the traverse_info is confusing and ultimately not necessary. Let's drop
it to make it clear that it will not always be set (as well as convince
us that it's unused, and let the compiler catch any merges with other
branches that do add new uses).
Since the oid is part of name_entry, we'll actually stop embedding a
name_entry entirely, and instead just separately hold the pathname, its
length, and the mode.
This makes the resulting code slightly more verbose as we have to pass
those elements around individually. But it also makes it more clear what
each code path is going to use (and in most of the paths, we really only
care about the pathname itself).
A few of these conversions are noisier than they need to be, as they
also take the opportunity to rename "len" to "namelen" for clarity
(especially where we also have "pathlen" or "ce_len" alongside).

Instead of using the repository_format_partial_clone global
and fetch_objects() directly, let's use has_promisor_remote()
and promisor_remote_get_direct().
This way all the configured promisor remotes will be taken
into account, not only the one specified by
extensions.partialClone.
Also when cloning or fetching using a partial clone filter,
remote.origin.promisor will be set to "true" instead of
setting extensions.partialClone to "origin". This makes it
possible to use many promisor remote just by fetching from
them.

While running "git diff" in a lazy clone, we can upfront know which
missing blobs we will need, instead of waiting for the on-demand
machinery to discover them one by one. Aim to achieve better
performance by batching the request for these promised blobs.
