da470981de fetch-pack: grow stateless RPC windows exponentially
When updating large repositories, the LARGE_FLUSH limit (that is, the
limit at which the window growth strategy switches from exponential to
linear) is reached quite quickly. Use a conservative exponential growth
strategy when that limit is reached instead (and increase LARGE_FLUSH so
that there is no regression in window size).

This optimization is only applied during stateless RPCs to avoid the
issue raised and fixed in commit 44d8dc54 (Fix potential local
deadlock during fetch-pack, 2011-03-29).

cccf74e2da fetch, upload-pack: --deepen=N extends shallow boundary by N commits
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).

79891cb90a fetch-pack: use a separate flag for fetch in deepening mode
The shallow repo could be deepened or shortened when then user gives
--depth. But in future that won't be the only way to deepen/shorten a
repo. Stop relying on args->depth in this mode. Future deepening
methods can simply set this flag on instead of updating all these if
expressions.

The new name "deepen" was chosen after the command to define shallow
boundary in pack protocol. New commands also follow this tradition.

df85757244 fetch-pack: isolate sigpipe in demuxer thread
In commit 9ff18fa (fetch-pack: ignore SIGPIPE in sideband
demuxer, 2016-02-24), we started using sigchain_push() to
ignore SIGPIPE in the async demuxer thread. However, this is
rather clumsy, as it ignores SIGPIPE for the entire process,
including the main thread. At the time we didn't have any
per-thread signal support, but we now we do. Let's use it.

9ff18faf2f fetch-pack: ignore SIGPIPE in sideband demuxer
If the other side feeds us a bogus pack, index-pack (or
unpack-objects) may die early, before consuming all of its
input. As a result, the sideband demuxer may get SIGPIPE
(racily, depending on whether our data made it into the pipe
buffer or not). If this happens and we are compiled with
pthread support, it will take down the main thread, too.

This isn't the end of the world, as the main process will
just die() anyway when it sees index-pack failed. But it
does mean we don't get a chance to say "fatal: index-pack
failed" or similar. And it also means that we racily fail
t5504, as we sometimes die() and sometimes are killed by
SIGPIPE.

So let's ignore SIGPIPE while demuxing the sideband. We are
already careful to check the return value of write(), so we
won't waste time writing to a broken pipe. The caller will
notice the error return from the async thread, though in
practice we don't even get that far, as we die() as soon as
we see that index-pack failed.

The non-sideband case is already fine; we let index-pack
read straight from the socket, so there is no SIGPIPE at
all. Technically the non-threaded async case is also OK
without this (the forked async process gets SIGPIPE), but
it's not worth distinguishing from the threaded case here.

f932729cc7 memoize common git-path "constant" files
One of the most common uses of git_path() is to pass a
constant, like git_path("MERGE_MSG"). This has two
drawbacks:

  1. The return value is a static buffer, and the lifetime
     is dependent on other calls to git_path, etc.

  2. There's no compile-time checking of the pathname. This
     is OK for a one-off (after all, we have to spell it
     correctly at least once), but many of these constant
     strings appear throughout the code.

This patch introduces a series of functions to "memoize"
these strings, which are essentially globals for the
lifetime of the program. We compute the value once, take
ownership of the buffer, and return the cached value for
subsequent calls.  cache.h provides a helper macro for
defining these functions as one-liners, and defines a few
common ones for global use.

Using a macro is a little bit gross, but it does nicely
document the purpose of the functions. If we need to touch
them all later (e.g., because we learned how to change the
git_dir variable at runtime, and need to invalidate all of
the stored values), it will be much easier to have the
complete list.

Note that the shared-global functions have separate, manual
declarations. We could do something clever with the macros
(e.g., expand it to a declaration in some places, and a
declaration _and_ a definition in path.c). But there aren't
that many, and it's probably better to stay away from
too-magical macros.

Likewise, if we abandon the C preprocessor in favor of
generating these with a script, we could get much fancier.
E.g., normalizing "FOO/BAR-BAZ" into "git_path_foo_bar_baz".
But the small amount of saved typing is probably not worth
the resulting confusion to readers who want to grep for the
function's definition.

2b2a5be394 each_ref_fn: change to take an object_id parameter
Change typedef each_ref_fn to take a "const struct object_id *oid"
parameter instead of "const unsigned char *sha1".

To aid this transition, implement an adapter that can be used to wrap
old-style functions matching the old typedef, which is now called
"each_ref_sha1_fn"), and make such functions callable via the new
interface. This requires the old function and its cb_data to be
wrapped in a "struct each_ref_fn_sha1_adapter", and that object to be
used as the cb_data for an adapter function, each_ref_fn_adapter().

This is an enormous diff, but most of it consists of simple,
mechanical changes to the sites that call any of the "for_each_ref"
family of functions. Subsequent to this change, the call sites can be
rewritten one by one to use the new interface.

68ee628932 upload-pack: optionally allow fetching reachable sha1
With uploadpack.allowReachableSHA1InWant configuration option set on the
server side, "git fetch" can make a request with a "want" line that names
an object that has not been advertised (likely to have been obtained out
of band or from a submodule pointer). Only objects reachable from the
branch tips, i.e. the union of advertised branches and branches hidden by
transfer.hideRefs, will be processed. Note that there is an associated
cost of having to walk back the history to check the reachability.

This feature can be used when obtaining the content of a certain commit,
for which the sha1 is known, without the need of cloning the whole
repository, especially if a shallow fetch is used. Useful cases are e.g.
repositories containing large files in the history, fetching only the
needed data for a submodule checkout, when sharing a sha1 without telling
which exact branch it belongs to and in Gerrit, if you think in terms of
commits instead of change numbers. (The Gerrit case has already been
solved through allowTipSHA1InWant as every Gerrit change has a ref.)

32d0462f8d fetch-pack: remove dead assignment to ref->new_sha1
In everything_local(), we used to assign the current ref's value
found in ref->old_sha1 to ref->new_sha1 when we already have all the
necessary objects to complete the history leading to that
commit.  This copying was broken at 49bb805e (Do not ask for
objects known to be complete., 2005-10-19) and ever since we
instead stuffed a random bytes in ref->new_sha1 here.  No
code complained or failed due to this breakage.

It turns out that no code path that comes after this
assignment even looks at ref->new_sha1 at all.

 - The only caller of everything_local(), do_fetch_pack(),
   returns this list of refs, whose element has bogus
   new_sha1 values, to its caller.  It does not look at the
   elements itself, but does pass them to find_common, which
   looks only at the name and old_sha1 fields.

 - The only caller of do_fetch_pack(), fetch_pack(), returns this
   list to its caller.  It does not look at the elements nor act on
   them.

 - One of the two callers of fetch_pack() is cmd_fetch_pack(), the
   top-level that implements "git fetch-pack".  The only thing it
   looks at in the elements of the returned ref list is the old_sha1
   and name fields.

 - The other caller of fetch_pack() is fetch_refs_via_pack() in the
   transport layer, which is a helper that implements "git fetch".
   It only cares about whether the returned list is empty (i.e.
   failed to fetch anything).

Just drop the bogus assignment, that is not even necessary.  The
remote-tracking refs are updated based on a different list and not
using the ref list being manipulated by this code path; the caller
do_fetch_pack() created a copy of that real ref list and passed the
copy down to this function, and modifying the elements here does not
affect anything.

c3c17bf107 filter_ref: make a copy of extra "sought" entries
If the server supports allow_tip_sha1_in_want, we add any
unmatched raw-sha1 entries in our "sought" list of refs to
the list of refs we will ask the other side for. We do so by
inserting the original "struct ref" directly into our list,
rather than making a copy. This has several problems.

The most minor problem is that one cannot ever free the
resulting list; it contains structs that are copies of the
remote refs (made earlier by fetch_pack) along with sought
refs that are referenced elsewhere.

But more importantly that we set the ref->next pointer to
NULL, chopping off the remainder of any existing list that
the ref was a part of. We get the set of "sought" refs in
an array rather than a linked list, but that array is often
in turn generated from a list.  The test modification in
t5516 demonstrates this. Rather than fetching just an exact
sha1, we fetch that sha1 plus another ref:

  - we build a linked list of refs to fetch when do_fetch
    calls get_ref_map; the exact sha1 is first, followed by
    the named ref ("refs/heads/extra" in this case).

  - we pass that linked list to transport_fetch_ref, which
    squashes it into an array of pointers

  - that array goes to fetch_pack, which calls filter_ref.
    There we generate the want list from a mix of what the
    remote side has advertised, and the "sought" entry for
    the exact sha1. We set the sought entry's "next" pointer
    to NULL.

  - after we return from transport_fetch_refs, we then try
    to update the refs by following the linked list. But our
    list is now truncated, and we do not update
    refs/heads/extra at all.

We can fix this by making a copy of the ref. There's nothing
that fetch_pack does to it that must be reflected in the
original "sought" list (and indeed, if that were the case we
would have a serious bug, because it is only exact-sha1
entries which are treated this way).

b7916422c7 filter_ref: avoid overwriting ref->old_sha1 with garbage
If the server supports allow_tip_sha1_in_want, then
fetch-pack's filter_refs function tries to check whether a
ref is a request for a straight sha1 by running:

  if (get_sha1_hex(ref->name, ref->old_sha1))
	  ...

I.e., we are using get_sha1_hex to ask "is this ref name a
sha1?". If it is true, then the contents of ref->old_sha1
will end up unchanged. But if it is false, then get_sha1_hex
makes no guarantees about what it has written. With a ref
name like "abcdefoo", we would overwrite 3 bytes of
ref->old_sha1 before realizing that it was not a sha1.

This is likely not a problem in practice, as anything in
refs->name (besides a sha1) will start with "refs/", meaning
that we would notice on the first character that there is a
problem. Still, we are making assumptions about the state
left in the output when get_sha1_hex returns an error (e.g.,
it could start from the end of the string, or error check
the values only once they were placed in the output). It's
better to be defensive.

We could just check that we have exactly 40 characters of
sha1. But let's be even more careful and make sure that we
have a 40-char hex refname that matches what is in old_sha1.
This is perhaps overly defensive, but spells out our
assumptions clearly.

82e56767aa fetch-pack: refactor parsing in get_ack
There are several uses of the magic number "line+45" when
parsing ACK lines from the server, and it's rather unclear
why 45 is the correct number. We can make this more clear by
keeping a running pointer as we parse, using skip_prefix to
jump past the first "ACK ", then adding 40 to jump past
get_sha1_hex (which is still magical, but hopefully 40 is
less magical to readers of git code).

Note that this actually puts us at line+44. The original
required some character between the sha1 and further ACK
flags (it is supposed to be a space, but we never enforced
that). We start our search for flags at line+44, which
meanas we are slightly more liberal than the old code.

ae021d8791 use skip_prefix to avoid magic numbers
It's a common idiom to match a prefix and then skip past it
with a magic number, like:

  if (starts_with(foo, "bar"))
	  foo += 3;

This is easy to get wrong, since you have to count the
prefix string yourself, and there's no compiler check if the
string changes.  We can use skip_prefix to avoid the magic
numbers here.

Note that some of these conversions could be much shorter.
For example:

  if (starts_with(arg, "--foo=")) {
	  bar = arg + 6;
	  continue;
  }

could become:

  if (skip_prefix(arg, "--foo=", &bar))
	  continue;

However, I have left it as:

  if (skip_prefix(arg, "--foo=", &v)) {
	  bar = v;
	  continue;
  }

to visually match nearby cases which need to actually
process the string. Like:

  if (skip_prefix(arg, "--foo=", &v)) {
	  bar = atoi(v);
	  continue;
  }

0179c945fc shallow: automatically clean up shallow tempfiles
We sometimes write tempfiles of the form "shallow_XXXXXX"
during fetch/push operations with shallow repositories.
Under normal circumstances, we clean up the result when we
are done. However, we do no take steps to clean up after
ourselves when we exit due to die() or signal death.

This patch teaches the tempfile creation code to register
handlers to clean up after ourselves. To handle this, we
change the ownership semantics of the filename returned by
setup_temporary_shallow. It now keeps a copy of the filename
itself, and returns only a const pointer to it.

We can also do away with explicit tempfile removal in the
callers. They all exit not long after finishing with the
file, so they can rely on the auto-cleanup, simplifying the
code.

Note that we keep things simple and maintain only a single
filename to be cleaned. This is sufficient for the current
caller, but we future-proof it with a die("BUG").

ff62eca7d1 fetch-pack: fix deepen shallow over smart http with no-done cap
In smart http, upload-pack adds new shallow lines at the beginning of
each rpc response. Only shallow lines from the first rpc call are
useful. After that they are thrown away. It's designed this way
because upload-pack is stateless and has no idea when its shallow
lines are helpful or not.

So after refs are negotiated with multi_ack_detailed and the server
thinks it learned enough, it sends "ACK obj-id ready", terminates the
rpc call and waits for the final rpc round. The client sends "done".
The server sends another response, which also has shallow lines at
the beginning, and the last "ACK obj-id" line.

When no-done is active, the last round is cut out, the server sends
"ACK obj-id ready" and "ACK obj-id" in the same rpc
response. fetch-pack is updated to recognize this and not send
"done". However it still tries to consume shallow lines, which are
never sent.

Update the code, make sure to skip consuming shallow lines when
no-done is enabled.

4c22408111 fetch-pack: do not filter out one-level refs
Currently fetching a one-level ref like "refs/foo" does not
work consistently. The outer "git fetch" program filters the
list of refs, checking each against check_refname_format.
Then it feeds the result to do_fetch_pack to actually
negotiate the haves/wants and get the pack. The fetch-pack
code does its own filter, and it behaves differently.

The fetch-pack filter looks for refs in "refs/", and then
feeds everything _after_ the slash (i.e., just "foo") into
check_refname_format.  But check_refname_format is not
designed to look at a partial refname. It complains that the
ref has only one component, thinking it is at the root
(i.e., alongside "HEAD"), when in reality we just fed it a
partial refname.

As a result, we omit a ref like "refs/foo" from the pack
request, even though "git fetch" then tries to store the
resulting ref.  If we happen to get the object anyway (e.g.,
because the ref is contained in another ref we are
fetching), then the fetch succeeds. But if it is a unique
object, we fail when trying to update "refs/foo".

We can fix this by just passing the whole refname into
check_refname_format; we know the part we were omitting is
"refs/", which is acceptable in a refname. This at least
makes the checks consistent with each other.

This problem happens most commonly with "refs/stash", which
is the only one-level ref in wide use. However, our test
does not use "refs/stash", as we may later want to restrict
it specifically (not because it is one-level, but because
of the semantics of stashes).

We may also want to do away with the multiple levels of
filtering (which can cause problems when they are out of
sync), or even forbid one-level refs entirely. However,
those decisions can come later; this fixes the most
immediate problem, which is the mismatch between the two.

4820a33baa fetch: support fetching from a shallow repository
This patch just put together pieces from the 8 steps patch. We stop at
step 7 and reject refs that require new shallow commits.

Note that, by rejecting refs that require new shallow commits, we
leave dangling objects in the repo, which become "object islands" by
the next "git fetch" of the same source.

If the first fetch our "ours" set is zero and we do practically
nothing at step 7, "ours" is full at the next fetch and we may need to
walk through commits for reachability test. Room for improvement.

beea4152d9 clone: support remote shallow repository
Cloning from a shallow repository does not follow the "8 steps for new
.git/shallow" because if it does we need to get through step 6 for all
refs. That means commit walking down to the bottom.

Instead the rule to create .git/shallow is simpler and, more
importantly, cheap: if a shallow commit is found in the pack, it's
probably used (i.e. reachable from some refs), so we add it. Others
are dropped.

One may notice this method seems flawed by the word "probably". A
shallow commit may not be reachable from any refs at all if it's
attached to an object island (a group of objects that are not
reachable by any refs).

If that object island is not complete, a new fetch request may send
more objects to connect it to some ref. At that time, because we
incorrectly installed the shallow commit in this island, the user will
not see anything after that commit (fsck is still ok). This is not
desired.

Given that object islands are rare (C Git never sends such islands for
security reasons) and do not really harm the repository integrity, a
tradeoff is made to surprise the user occasionally but work faster
everyday.

A new option --strict could be added later that follows exactly the 8
steps. "git prune" can also learn to remove dangling objects _and_ the
shallow commits that are attached to them from .git/shallow.

6da8bdcbbf fetch-pack: do not remove .git/shallow file when --depth is not specified
fetch_pack() can remove .git/shallow file when a shallow repository
becomes a full one again. This behavior is triggered incorrectly when
tags are also fetched because fetch_pack() will be called twice. At
the first fetch_pack() call:

 - shallow_lock is set up
 - alternate_shallow_file points to shallow_lock.filename, which is
   "shallow.lock"
 - commit_lock_file is called, which sets shallow_lock.filename to "".
   alternate_shallow_file also becomes "" because it points to the
   same memory.

At the second call, setup_alternate_shallow() is not called and
alternate_shallow_file remains "". It's mistaken as unshallow case and
.git/shallow is removed. The end result is a broken repository.

Fix this by always initializing alternate_shallow_file when
fetch_pack() is called. As an extra measure, check if args->depth > 0
before commit/rollback shallow file.

about the local ref used by sha1-name API to name local objects.

It is what refspecs are expanded into, after finding out what refs
the other side has, to define what refs are updated after object
transfer succeeds to what values.  It belongs to "remote.h" together
with "struct refspec".

099327b552 fetch-pack: avoid quadratic behavior in rev_list_push
When we call find_common to start finding common ancestors
with the remote side of a fetch, the first thing we do is
insert the tip of each ref into our rev_list linked list. We
keep the list sorted the whole time with
commit_list_insert_by_date, which means our insertion ends
up doing O(n^2) timestamp comparisons.

We could teach rev_list_push to use an unsorted list, and
then sort it once after we have added each ref. However, in
get_rev, we process the list by popping commits off the
front and adding parents back in timestamp-sorted order. So
that procedure would still operate on the large list.

Instead, we can replace the linked list with a heap-based
priority queue, which can do O(log n) insertion, making the
whole insertion procedure O(n log n).

As a result of switching to the prio_queue struct, we fix
two minor bugs:

  1. When we "pop" a commit in get_rev, and when we clear
     the rev_list in find_common, we do not take care to
     free the "struct commit_list", and just leak its
     memory. With the prio_queue implementation, the memory
     management is handled for us.

  2. In get_rev, we look at the head commit of the list,
     possibly push its parents onto the list, and then "pop"
     the front of the list off, assuming it is the same
     element that we just peeked at. This is typically going
     to be the case, but would not be in the face of clock
     skew: the parents are inserted by date, and could
     potentially be inserted at the head of the list if they
     have a timestamp newer than their descendent. In this
     case, we would accidentally pop the parent, and never
     process it at all.

     The new implementation pulls the commit off of the
     queue as we examine it, and so does not suffer from
     this problem.

With this patch, a fetch of a single commit into a
repository with 50,000 refs went from:

  real    0m7.984s
  user    0m7.852s
  sys     0m0.120s

to:

  real    0m2.017s
  user    0m1.884s
  sys     0m0.124s

Before this patch, a larger case with 370K refs still had
not completed after tens of minutes; with this patch, it
completes in about 12 seconds.

16445242ed fetch-pack: avoid quadratic list insertion in mark_complete
We insert the commit pointed to by each ref one-by-one into
the "complete" commit_list using insert_by_date. Because
each insertion is O(n), we end up with O(n^2) behavior.

This typically doesn't matter, because the number of refs is
reasonably small. And even if there are a lot of refs, they
often point to a smaller set of objects (in which case the
optimization in commit ea5f220 keeps our "n" small).

However, in pathological repositories (hundreds of thousands
of refs, each pointing to a unique commit), this quadratic
behavior can make a difference. Since we do not care about
the list order until we have finished building it, we can
simply keep it unsorted during the insertion phase, then
sort it afterwards.

On a repository like the one described above, this dropped
the time to do a no-op fetch from 2.0s to 1.7s. On normal
repositories, it probably does not matter at all, but it
does not hurt to protect ourselves from pathological cases.

c6807a40dc clone: open a shortcut for connectivity check
In order to make sure the cloned repository is good, we run "rev-list
--objects --not --all $new_refs" on the repository. This is expensive
on large repositories. This patch attempts to mitigate the impact in
this special case.

In the "good" clone case, we only have one pack. If all of the
following are met, we can be sure that all objects reachable from the
new refs exist, which is the intention of running "rev-list ...":

 - all refs point to an object in the pack
 - there are no dangling pointers in any object in the pack
 - no objects in the pack point to objects outside the pack

The second and third checks can be done with the help of index-pack as
a slight variation of --strict check (which introduces a new condition
for the shortcut: pack transfer must be used and the number of objects
large enough to call index-pack). The first is checked in
check_everything_connected after we get an "ok" from index-pack.

"index-pack + new checks" is still faster than the current "index-pack
+ rev-list", which is the whole point of this patch. If any of the
conditions fail, we fall back to the good old but expensive "rev-list
..". In that case it's even more expensive because we have to pay for
the new checks in index-pack. But that should only happen when the
other side is either buggy or malicious.

Cloning linux-2.6 over file://

        before         after

sys     0m35.812s      0m37.630s

This shortcut is not applied to shallow clones, partly because shallow
clones should have no more objects than a usual fetch and the cost of
rev-list is acceptable, partly to avoid dealing with corner cases when
grafting is involved.

This shortcut does not apply to unpack-objects code path either
because the number of objects must be small in order to trigger that
code path.

74543a0423 pkt-line: provide a LARGE_PACKET_MAX static buffer
Most of the callers of packet_read_line just read into a
static 1000-byte buffer (callers which handle arbitrary
binary data already use LARGE_PACKET_MAX). This works fine
in practice, because:

  1. The only variable-sized data in these lines is a ref
     name, and refs tend to be a lot shorter than 1000
     characters.

  2. When sending ref lines, git-core always limits itself
     to 1000 byte packets.

However, the only limit given in the protocol specification
in Documentation/technical/protocol-common.txt is
LARGE_PACKET_MAX; the 1000 byte limit is mentioned only in
pack-protocol.txt, and then only describing what we write,
not as a specific limit for readers.

This patch lets us bump the 1000-byte limit to
LARGE_PACKET_MAX. Even though git-core will never write a
packet where this makes a difference, there are two good
reasons to do this:

  1. Other git implementations may have followed
     protocol-common.txt and used a larger maximum size. We
     don't bump into it in practice because it would involve
     very long ref names.

  2. We may want to increase the 1000-byte limit one day.
     Since packets are transferred before any capabilities,
     it's difficult to do this in a backwards-compatible
     way. But if we bump the size of buffer the readers can
     handle, eventually older versions of git will be
     obsolete enough that we can justify bumping the
     writers, as well. We don't have plans to do this
     anytime soon, but there is no reason not to start the
     clock ticking now.

Just bumping all of the reading bufs to LARGE_PACKET_MAX
would waste memory. Instead, since most readers just read
into a temporary buffer anyway, let's provide a single
static buffer that all callers can use. We can further wrap
this detail away by having the packet_read_line wrapper just
use the buffer transparently and return a pointer to the
static storage.  That covers most of the cases, and the
remaining ones already read into their own LARGE_PACKET_MAX
buffers.

819b929d33 pkt-line: teach packet_read_line to chomp newlines
The packets sent during ref negotiation are all terminated
by newline; even though the code to chomp these newlines is
short, we end up doing it in a lot of places.

This patch teaches packet_read_line to auto-chomp the
trailing newline; this lets us get rid of a lot of inline
chomping code.

As a result, some call-sites which are not reading
line-oriented data (e.g., when reading chunks of packfiles
alongside sideband) transition away from packet_read_line to
the generic packet_read interface. This patch converts all
of the existing callsites.

Since the function signature of packet_read_line does not
change (but its behavior does), there is a possibility of
new callsites being introduced in later commits, silently
introducing an incompatibility.  However, since a later
patch in this series will change the signature, such a
commit would have to be merged directly into this commit,
not to the tip of the series; we can therefore ignore the
issue.

This is an internal cleanup and should produce no change of
behavior in the normal case. However, there is one corner
case to note. Callers of packet_read_line have never been
able to tell the difference between a flush packet ("0000")
and an empty packet ("0004"), as both cause packet_read_line
to return a length of 0. Readers treat them identically,
even though Documentation/technical/protocol-common.txt says
we must not; it also says that implementations should not
send an empty pkt-line.

By stripping out the newline before the result gets to the
caller, we will now treat the newline-only packet ("0005\n")
the same as an empty packet, which in turn gets treated like
a flush packet. In practice this doesn't matter, as neither
empty nor newline-only packets are part of git's protocols
(at least not for the line-oriented bits, and readers who
are not expecting line-oriented packets will be calling
packet_read directly, anyway). But even if we do decide to
care about the distinction later, it is orthogonal to this
patch.  The right place to tighten would be to stop treating
empty packets as flush packets, and this change does not
make doing so any harder.

030e9dd64f fetch-pack: fix out-of-bounds buffer offset in get_ack
When we read acks from the remote, we expect either:

  ACK <sha1>

or

  ACK <sha1> <multi-ack-flag>

We parse the "ACK <sha1>" bit from the line, and then start
looking for the flag strings at "line+45"; if we don't have
them, we assume it's of the first type.  But if we do have
the first type, then line+45 is not necessarily inside our
string at all!

It turns out that this works most of the time due to the way
we parse the packets. They should come in with a newline,
and packet_read puts an extra NUL into the buffer, so we end
up with:

  ACK <sha1>\n\0

with the newline at offset 44 and the NUL at offset 45. We
then strip the newline, putting a NUL at offset 44. So
when we look at "line+45", we are looking past the end of
our string; but it's OK, because we hit the terminator from
the original string.

This breaks down, however, if the other side does not
terminate their packets with a newline. In that case, our
packet is one character shorter, and we start looking
through uninitialized memory for the flag. No known
implementation sends such a packet, so it has never come up
in practice.

This patch tightens the check by looking for a short,
flagless ACK before trying to parse the flag.

b0e908977e Fixup no-progress for fetch & clone
The intent of the commit 'fetch & clone: do not output progress when
not on a tty' was to make fetching and cloning less chatty when
output was not redirected (such as in a cron job).

However, there was a serious thinko in that commit. It assumed that
the client _and_ the server got this update at the same time. But
this is obviously not the case, and therefore upload-pack died on
seeing the option "--no-progress".

This patch fixes that issue by making it a protocol option. So, until
your server is updated, you still see the progress, but once the
server has this patch, it will be quiet.

A minor issue was also fixed: when cloning, the checkout did not
heed no_progress.
