Use trace_performance to measure and print execution time and command line
arguments of the entire main() function. In constrast to the shell's 'time'
utility, which measures total time of the parent process, this logs all
involved git commands recursively. This is particularly useful to debug
performance issues of scripted commands (i.e. which git commands were
called with which parameters, and how long did they execute).
Due to git's deliberate use of exit(), the implementation uses an atexit
routine rather than just adding trace_performance_since() at the end of
main().
Usage example: > GIT_TRACE_PERFORMANCE=~/git-trace.log git stash list
Creates a log file like this:

Add trace_performance and trace_performance_since macros that print a
duration and an optional printf-formatted text to the file specified in
environment variable GIT_TRACE_PERFORMANCE.
These macros, in conjunction with getnanotime(), are intended to simplify
performance measurements from within the application (i.e. profiling via
manual instrumentation, rather than using an external profiling tool).
Unless enabled via GIT_TRACE_PERFORMANCE, these macros have no noticeable
impact on performance, so that test code for well known time killers may
be shipped in release builds. Alternatively, a developer could provide an
additional performance patch (not meant for master) that allows reviewers
to reproduce performance tests more easily, e.g. on other platforms or
using their own repositories.
Usage examples:
Simple use case (measure one code section):
uint64_t start = getnanotime();
/* code section to measure */
trace_performance_since(start, "foobar");
Complex use case (measure repetitive code sections):
uint64_t t = 0;
for (;;) {
/* ignore */
t -= getnanotime();
/* code section to measure */
t += getnanotime();
/* ignore */
}

Add a getnanotime() function that returns nanoseconds since 01/01/1970 as
unsigned 64-bit integer (i.e. overflows in july 2554). This is easier to
work with than e.g. struct timeval or struct timespec. Basing the timer on
the epoch allows using the results with other time-related APIs.
To simplify adaption to different platforms, split the implementation into
a common getnanotime() and a platform-specific highres_nanos() function.
The common getnanotime() function handles errors, falling back to
gettimeofday() if highres_nanos() isn't implemented or doesn't work.
getnanotime() is also responsible for normalizing to the epoch. The offset
to the system clock is calculated only once on initialization, i.e.
manually setting the system clock has no impact on the timer (except if
the fallback gettimeofday() is in use). Git processes are typically short
lived, so we don't need to handle clock drift.
The highres_nanos() function returns monotonically increasing nanoseconds
relative to some arbitrary point in time (e.g. system boot), or 0 on
failure. Providing platform-specific implementations should be relatively
easy, e.g. adapting to clock_gettime() as defined by the POSIX realtime
extensions is seven lines of code.
This version includes highres_nanos() implementations for:
* Linux: using clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC)
* Windows: using QueryPerformanceCounter()
Todo:
* enable clock_gettime() on more platforms
* add Mac OSX version, e.g. using mach_absolute_time + mach_timebase_info

This is useful to see where trace output came from.
Add 'const char *file, int line' parameters to the printing functions and
rename them to *_fl.
Add trace_printf* and trace_strbuf macros resolving to the *_fl functions
and let the preprocessor fill in __FILE__ and __LINE__.
As the trace_printf* functions take a variable number of arguments, this
requires variadic macros (i.e. '#define foo(...) foo_impl(__VA_ARGS__)'.
Though part of C99, it is unclear whether older compilers support this.
Thus keep the old functions and only enable variadic macros for GNUC and
MSVC 2005+ (_MSC_VER 1400). This has the nice side effect that the old
C-style declarations serve as documentation how the macros are to be used.
Print 'file:line ' as prefix to each trace line. Align the remaining trace
output at column 40 to accommodate 18 char file names + 4 digit line

To be able to add a common prefix or suffix to all trace output (e.g.
a timestamp or file:line of the caller), factor out common setup and
cleanup tasks of the trace* functions.
When adding a common prefix, it makes sense that the output of each trace
call starts on a new line. Add '\n' in case the caller forgot.
Note that this explicitly limits trace output to line-by-line, it is no
longer possible to trace-print just part of a line. Until now, this was
just an implicit assumption (trace-printing part of a line worked, but
messed up the trace file if multiple threads or processes were involved).
Thread-safety / inter-process-safety is also the reason why we need to do
the prefixing and suffixing in memory rather than issuing multiple write()
calls. Write_or_whine_pipe() / xwrite() is atomic unless the size exceeds
MAX_IO_SIZE (8MB, see wrapper.c). In case of trace_strbuf, this costs an
additional string copy (which should be irrelevant for performance in light
of actual file IO).
While we're at it, rename trace_strbuf's 'buf' argument, which suggests
that the function is modifying the buffer. Trace_strbuf() currently is the
only trace API that can print arbitrary binary data (without barfing on
'%' or stopping at '\0'), so 'data' seems more appropriate.

The trace API currently rechecks the environment variable and reopens the

(e.g. file cannot be opened, or the user specified a relative path) are
also reported on every call. Performance can be improved by about factor
three by remembering the environment state and keeping the file open.
Replace the 'const char *key' parameter in the API with a pointer to a
'struct trace_key' that bundles the environment variable name with
additional, trace-internal state. Change the call sites of these APIs to
use a static 'struct trace_key' instead of a string constant.
In trace.c::get_trace_fd(), save and reuse the file descriptor in 'struct

We generally want to avoid lookup_unknown_object, because it
results in allocating more memory for the object than may be
strictly necessary.
In this case, it is used to check whether we have an
already-parsed object before calling parse_object, to save
us from reading the object from disk. Using lookup_object
would be fine for that purpose, but we can take it a step
further. Since this code was written, parse_object already
learned the "check lookup_object" optimization, so we can
simply call parse_object directly.

The point of the "index" field of struct commit is that
every allocated commit would have one. It is supposed to be
an invariant that whenever object->type is set to
OBJ_COMMIT, we have a unique index.
Commit 969eba6 (commit: push commit_index update into
alloc_commit_node, 2014-06-10) covered this case for
newly-allocated commits. However, we may also allocate an
"unknown" object via lookup_unknown_object, and only later
convert it to a commit. We must make sure that we set the
commit index when we switch the type field.

When we call lookup_commit, lookup_tree, etc, the logic goes
something like:
1. Look for an existing object struct. If we don't have
one, allocate and return a new one.
2. Double check that any object we have is the expected
type (and complain and return NULL otherwise).
3. Convert an object with type OBJ_NONE (from a prior
call to lookup_unknown_object) to the expected type.
We can encapsulate steps 2 and 3 in a helper function which
checks whether we have the expected object type, converts
OBJ_NONE as appropriate, and returns the object.
Not only does this shorten the code, but it also provides
one central location for converting OBJ_NONE objects into
objects of other types. Future patches will use that to
enforce type-specific invariants.
Since this is a refactoring, we would want it to behave
exactly as the current code. It takes a little reasoning to
see that this is the case:
- for lookup_{commit,tree,etc} functions, we are just
pulling steps 2 and 3 into a function that does the same
thing.
- for the call in peel_object, we currently only do step 3
(but we want to consolidate it with the others, as
mentioned above). However, step 2 is a noop here, as the
surrounding conditional makes sure we have OBJ_NONE
(which we want to keep to avoid an extraneous call to
sha1_object_info).
- for the call in lookup_commit_reference_gently, we are
currently doing step 2 but not step 3. However, step 3
is a noop here. The object we got will have just come
from deref_tag, which must have figured out the type for
each object in order to know when to stop peeling.
Therefore the type will never be OBJ_NONE.

The "struct object" type implements basic object
polymorphism. Individual instances are allocated as
concrete types (or as a union type that can store any
object), and a "struct object *" can be cast into its real
type after examining its "type" enum. This means it is
dangerous to have a type field that does not match the
allocation (e.g., setting the type field of a "struct blob"
to "OBJ_COMMIT" would mean that a reader might read past the
allocated memory).
In most of the current code this is not a problem; the first
thing we do after allocating an object is usually to set its
type field by passing it to create_object. However, the
virtual commits we create in merge-recursive.c do not ever
get their type set. This does not seem to have caused
problems in practice, though (presumably because we always
pass around a "struct commit" pointer and never even look at
the type).
We can fix this oversight and also make it harder for future
code to get it wrong by setting the type directly in the
object allocation functions.
This will also make it easier to fix problems with commit
index allocation, as we know that any object allocated by
alloc_commit_node will meet the invariant that an object
with an OBJ_COMMIT type field will have a unique index
number.

Because the allocator functions for tree, blobs, etc are all
very similar, we originally used a macro to avoid repeating
ourselves. Since the prior commit, though, the heavy lifting
is done by an inline helper function. The macro does still
save us a few lines, but at some readability cost. It
obfuscates the function definitions (and makes them hard to
find via grep).
Much worse, though, is the fact that it isn't used
consistently for all allocators. Somebody coming later may
be tempted to modify DEFINE_ALLOCATOR, but they would miss
alloc_commit_node, which is treated specially.
