Because of the wrapping of the branch name variable $b, the colour codes
in the variable don't get applied, but are instead printed directly in
the output. Move the wrapping of $b to before colour codes are inserted
to correct this. Revert move of branch name colour codes in tests, as
the branch name is now coloured after the wrapping instead of before.

In rare cases[1], wait_or_whine() cannot determine a child process's
status (and will return -1 in this case). This can cause Git to issue
trace2 child_exit events despite the fact that the child may still be
running. In pathological cases, we've seen > 80 million exit events in
our trace logs for a single child process.
Fix this by only issuing trace2 events in finish_command_in_signal() if
we get a value other than -1 from wait_or_whine(). This can lead to
missing child_exit events in such a case, but that is preferable to
duplicating events on a scale that threatens to fill the user's
filesystem with invalid trace logs.

* waitpid() returns -1 and errno != EINTR
* waitpid() returns an invalid PID
* the status set by waitpid() has neither the WIFEXITED() nor

Fix a regression reported[1] against f443246b9f (commit: convert
{pre-commit,prepare-commit-msg} hook to hook.h, 2021-12-22): Due to
using the run_process_parallel() API in the earlier 96e7225b31 (hook:
add 'run' subcommand, 2021-12-22) we'd capture the hook's stderr and
stdout, and thus lose the connection to the TTY in the case of
e.g. the "pre-commit" hook.
As a preceding commit notes GNU parallel's similar --ungroup option
also has it emit output faster. While we're unlikely to have hooks
that emit truly massive amounts of output (or where the performance
thereof matters) it's still informative to measure the overhead. In a
similar "seq" test we're now ~30% faster:

Extend the parallel execution API added in c553c72eed (run-command:
add an asynchronous parallel child processor, 2015-12-15) to support a
mode where the stdout and stderr of the processes isn't captured and
output in a deterministic order, instead we'll leave it to the kernel
and stdio to sort it out.
This gives the API same functionality as GNU parallel's --ungroup
option. As we'll see in a subsequent commit the main reason to want
this is to support stdout and stderr being connected to the TTY in the
case of jobs=1, demonstrated here with GNU parallel:
$ parallel --ungroup 'test -t {} && echo TTY || echo NTTY' ::: 1 2
TTY
TTY
$ parallel 'test -t {} && echo TTY || echo NTTY' ::: 1 2
NTTY
NTTY
Another is as GNU parallel's documentation notes a potential for
optimization. As demonstrated in next commit our results with "git
hook run" will be similar, but generally speaking this shows that if
you want to run processes in parallel where the exact order isn't
important this can be a lot faster:
$ hyperfine -r 3 -L o ,--ungroup 'parallel {o} seq ::: 10000000 >/dev/null '
Benchmark 1: parallel seq ::: 10000000 >/dev/null
Time (mean ± σ): 220.2 ms ± 9.3 ms [User: 124.9 ms, System: 96.1 ms]

Benchmark 2: parallel --ungroup seq ::: 10000000 >/dev/null
Time (mean ± σ): 154.7 ms ± 0.9 ms [User: 136.2 ms, System: 25.1 ms]
Range (min … max): 153.9 ms … 155.7 ms 3 runs
Summary
'parallel --ungroup seq ::: 10000000 >/dev/null ' ran
1.42 ± 0.06 times faster than 'parallel seq ::: 10000000 >/dev/null '
A large part of the juggling in the API is to make the API safer for
its maintenance and consumers alike.
For the maintenance of the API we e.g. avoid malloc()-ing the
"pp->pfd", ensuring that SANITIZE=address and other similar tools will
catch any unexpected misuse.
For API consumers we take pains to never pass the non-NULL "out"
buffer to an API user that provided the "ungroup" option. The
resulting code in t/helper/test-run-command.c isn't typical of such a
user, i.e. they'd typically use one mode or the other, and would know
whether they'd provided "ungroup" or not.
We could also avoid the strbuf_init() for "buffered_output" by having
"struct parallel_processes" use a static PARALLEL_PROCESSES_INIT
initializer, but let's leave that cleanup for later.
Using a global "run_processes_parallel_ungroup" variable to enable
this option is rather nasty, but is being done here to produce as
minimal of a change as possible for a subsequent regression fix. This
change is extracted from a larger initial version[1] which ends up
with a better end-state for the API, but in doing so needed to modify
all existing callers of the API. Let's defer that for now, and
narrowly focus on what we need for fixing the regression in the
subsequent commit.
It's safe to do this with a global variable because:
A) hook.c is the only user of it that sets it to non-zero, and before
we'll get any other API users we'll refactor away this method of
passing in the option, i.e. re-roll [1].
B) Even if hook.c wasn't the only user we don't have callers of this
API that concurrently invoke this parallel process starting API
itself in parallel.
As noted above "A" && "B" are rather nasty, and we don't want to live
with those caveats long-term, but for now they should be an acceptable
compromise.

The short upstream state indicator inherits the colour of the last short
state indicator before it (if there is one), and the sparsity state
indicator inherits this colour as well. This behaviour was introduced by
0ec7c23cdc (git-prompt: make upstream state indicator location
consistent, 2022-02-27), while before this change the aforementioned
indicators were white/the default text colour. Some examples to
illustrate this behaviour (assuming all indicators are enabled and
colourization is on):
* If there is something in the stash, both the '$' and the short
upstream state indicator following it will be blue.
* If the local tree has new, untracked files and there is nothing in
the stash, both the '%' and the short upstream state indicator
will be red.
* If all local changes are added to the index and the stash is empty,
both the '+' and the short upstream state indicator following it will
be green.
* If the local tree is clean and there is nothing in the stash, the
short upstream state indicator will be white/${default text colour}.
This appears to be an unintended side-effect of the change, and makes
little sense semantically (e.g. why is it bad to be in sync with
upstream when you have uncommitted local changes?). The cause of the
change in colourization is that previously, the short upstream state
indicator appeared immediately after the rebase/revert/bisect/merge
state indicator (note the position of $p in $gitstring):
local f="$h$w$i$s$u"
local gitstring="$c$b${f:+$z$f}${sparse}$r$p"
Said indicator is prepended with the clear colour code, and the short
upstream state indicator is thus also uncoloured. Now, the short
upstream state indicator follows the sequence of colourized indicators,
without any clearing of colour (again note the position of $p, now in
$f):
local f="$h$w$i$s$u$p"
local gitstring="$c$b${f:+$z$f}${sparse}$r${upstream}"
If the user is in a sparse checkout, the sparsity state indicator
follows a similar pattern to the short upstream state indicator.
However, clearing colour of the colourized indicators changes how the
sparsity state indicator is colourized, as it currently inherits (and
before the change referenced also inherited) the colour of the last
short state indicator before it. Reading the commit message of the
change that introduced the sparsity state indicator, afda36dbf3
(git-prompt: include sparsity state as well, 2020-06-21), it appears
this colourization also was unintended, so clearing the colour for said
indicator further increases consistency.
Make the colourization of these state indicators consistent by making
all colourized indicators clear their own colour. Make colouring of $c
dependent on it not being empty, as it is no longer being used to colour
the branch name. Move clearing of $b's prefix to before colourization so
it gets cleared properly when colour codes are inserted into it. These
changes make changing the layout of the prompt less prone to unintended
colour changes in the future.
Change coloured Bash prompt tests to reflect the colourization changes:
* Move the colour codes to wrap the expected content of the expanded
$__git_ps1_branch_name in all tests.
* Insert a clear-colour code after the symbol for the first indicator
in "prompt - bash color pc mode - dirty status indicator - dirty
index and worktree", to reflect that all indicators should clear
their own colour.

After generating diffs for each range to be compared using a 'git log'
invocation, range-diff.c::read_patches looks for the "diff --git" header
in those diffs to recognize the beginning of a new change.
In a project with submodules, and with 'diff.submodule=log' set in the
config, this header is missing for the diff of a changed submodule, so
any submodule changes are quietly ignored in the range-diff.
When 'diff.submodule=diff' is set in the config, the "diff --git" header
is also missing for the submodule itself, but is shown for submodule
content changes, which can easily confuse 'git range-diff' and lead to
errors such as:
error: git apply: bad git-diff - inconsistent old filename on line 1
error: could not parse git header 'diff --git path/to/submodule/and/some/file/within
'
error: could not parse log for '@{u}..@{1}'
Force the submodule diff format to its default ("short") when invoking
'git log' to generate the patches for each range, such that submodule
changes are always detected.
Add a test, including an invocation with '--creation-factor=100' to
force the second commit in the range not to be considered a complete
rewrite, in order to verify we do indeed get the "short" format.

When a commit is parsed, it pretends to have a different (possibly
empty) list of parents if there is graft information for that commit.
But there is a bug that could occur when a commit is parsed, the graft
information is updated (for example, when a shallow file is rewritten),
and the same commit is subsequently used: the parents of the commit do
not conform to the updated graft information, but the information at the
time of parsing.
This is usually not an issue, as a commit is usually introduced into the
repository at the same time as its graft information. That means that
when we try to parse that commit, we already have its graft information.
But it is an issue when fetching a shallow point directly into a
repository with submodules. The function
assign_shallow_commits_to_refs() parses all sought objects (including
the shallow point, which we are directly fetching). In update_shallow()
in fetch-pack.c, assign_shallow_commits_to_refs() is called before
commit_shallow_file(), which means that the shallow point would have
been parsed before graft information is updated. Once a commit is
parsed, it is no longer sensitive to any graft information updates. This
parsed commit is subsequently used when we do a revision walk to search
for submodules to fetch, meaning that the commit is considered to have
parents even though it is a shallow point (and therefore should be
treated as having no parents).
Therefore, whenever graft information is updated, mark the commits that
were previously grafts and the commits that are newly grafts as
unparsed.

When `show-ref` is combined with the `--heads` or `--tags` options, it
can avoid iterating parts of a repository's references that it doesn't
care about.
But it doesn't take advantage of this potential optimization. When this
command was introduced back in 358ddb62cf (Add "git show-ref" builtin
command, 2006-09-15), `for_each_ref_in()` did exist. But since most
repositories don't have many (any?) references that aren't branches or
tags already, this makes little difference in practice.
Though for repositories with a large imbalance of branches and tags (or,
more likely in the case of server operators, many hidden references),
this can make quite a difference. Take, for example, a repository with
500,000 "hidden" references (all of the form "refs/__hidden__/N"), and
a single branch:
git commit --allow-empty -m "base" &&
seq 1 500000 | sed 's,\(.*\),create refs/__hidden__/\1 HEAD,' |
git update-ref --stdin &&
git pack-refs --all
Outputting the existence of that single branch currently takes on the
order of ~50ms on my machine. The vast majority of this time is wasted
iterating through references that we know we're going to discard.
Instead, teach `show-ref` that it can iterate just "refs/heads" and/or
"refs/tags" when given `--heads` and/or `--tags`, respectively. A few
small interesting things to note:
- When given either option, we can avoid the general-purpose
for_each_ref() call altogether, since we know that it won't give us
any references that we wouldn't filter out already.
- We can make two separate calls to `for_each_fullref_in()` (and
avoid, say, the more specialized `for_each_fullref_in_prefixes()`,
since we know that the set of references enumerated by each is
disjoint, so we'll never see the same reference appear in both
calls.
- We have to use the "fullref" variant (instead of just
`for_each_branch_ref()` and `for_each_tag_ref()`), since we expect
fully-qualified reference names to appear in `show-ref`'s output.
When either of `heads_only` or `tags_only` is set, we can eliminate the
strcmp() calls in `builtin/show-ref.c::show_ref()` altogether, since we
know that `show_ref()` will never see a non-branch or tag reference.
Unfortunately, we can't use `for_each_fullref_in_prefixes()` to enhance
`show-ref`'s pattern matching, since `show-ref` patterns match on the
_suffix_ (e.g., the pattern "foo" shows "refs/heads/foo",
"refs/tags/foo", and etc, not "foo/*").
Nonetheless, in our synthetic example above, this provides a significant
speed-up ("git" is roughly v2.36, "git.compile" is this patch):
$ hyperfine -N 'git show-ref --heads' 'git.compile show-ref --heads'
Benchmark 1: git show-ref --heads
Time (mean ± σ): 49.9 ms ± 6.2 ms [User: 45.6 ms, System: 4.1 ms]
Range (min … max): 46.1 ms … 73.6 ms 43 runs
Benchmark 2: git.compile show-ref --heads
Time (mean ± σ): 2.8 ms ± 0.4 ms [User: 1.4 ms, System: 1.2 ms]
Range (min … max): 1.3 ms … 5.6 ms 957 runs
Summary
'git.compile show-ref --heads' ran
18.03 ± 3.38 times faster than 'git show-ref --heads'

Users sometimes provide a "username:password" combination in their
plaintext URLs. Since Git stores these URLs in plaintext in the
.git/config file, this is a very insecure way of storing these
credentials. Credential managers are a more secure way of storing this
information.
System administrators might want to prevent this kind of use by users on
their machines.
Create a new "fetch.credentialsInUrl" config option and teach Git to
warn or die when seeing a URL with this kind of information. The warning
anonymizes the sensitive information of the URL to be clear about the
issue.
This change currently defaults the behavior to "allow" which does
nothing with these URLs. We can consider changing this behavior to
"warn" by default if we wish. At that time, we may want to add some
advice about setting fetch.credentialsInUrl=ignore for users who still
want to follow this pattern (and not receive the warning).
An earlier version of this change injected the logic into
url_normalize() in urlmatch.c. While most code paths that parse URLs
eventually normalize the URL, that normalization does not happen early
enough in the stack to avoid attempting connections to the URL first. By
inserting a check into the remote validation, we identify the issue
before making a connection. In the old code path, this was revealed by
testing the new t5601-clone.sh test under --stress, resulting in an
instance where the return code was 13 (SIGPIPE) instead of 128 from the
die().
However, we can reuse the parsing information from url_normalize() in
order to benefit from its well-worn parsing logic. We can use the struct
url_info that is created in that method to replace the password with
"<redacted>" in our error messages. This comes with a slight downside
that the normalized URL might look slightly different from the input URL
(for instance, the normalized version adds a closing slash). This should
not hinder users figuring out what the problem is and being able to fix
the issue.
As an attempt to ensure the parsing logic did not catch any
unintentional cases, I modified this change locally to to use the "die"
option by default. Running the test suite succeeds except for the
explicit username:password URLs used in t5550-http-fetch-dumb.sh and
t5541-http-push-smart.sh. This means that all other tested URLs did not
trigger this logic.
The tests show that the proper error messages appear (or do not
appear), but also count the number of error messages. When only warning,
each process validates the remote URL and outputs a warning. This
happens twice for clone, three times for fetch, and once for push.
