The logic to see if we are using the "cone" mode by checking the
sparsity patterns has been tightened to avoid mistaking a pattern
that names a single file as specifying a cone.
* ws/single-file-cone:
dir: check for single file cone patterns
The sparse checkout documentation states that the cone mode pattern set
is limited to patterns that either recursively include directories or
patterns that match all files in a directory. In the sparse checkout
file, the former manifest in the form:
/A/B/C/
while the latter become a pair of patterns either in the form:
/A/B/
!/A/B/*/
or in the special case of matching the toplevel files:
/*
!/*/
The 'add_pattern_to_hashsets()' function contains checks which serve to
disable cone-mode when non-cone patterns are encountered. However, these
do not catch when the pattern list attempts to match a single file or
directory, e.g. a pattern in the form:
/A/B/C
This causes sparse-checkout to exhibit unexpected behaviour when such a
pattern is in the sparse-checkout file and cone mode is enabled.
Concretely, with the pattern like the above, sparse-checkout, in
non-cone mode, will only include the directory or file located at
'/A/B/C'. However, with cone mode enabled, sparse-checkout will instead
just manifest the toplevel files but not any file located at '/A/B/C'.
Relatedly, issues occur when supplying the same kind of filter when
partial cloning with '--filter=sparse:oid=<oid>'. 'upload-pack' will
correctly just include the objects that match the non-cone pattern
matching. Which means that checking out the newly cloned repo with the
same filter, but with cone mode enabled, fails due to missing objects.
To fix these issues, add a cone mode pattern check that asserts that
every pattern is either a directory match or the pattern '/*'. Add a
test to verify the new pattern check and modify another to reflect that
non-directory patterns are caught earlier.

Let's instead partially go with the approach suggested in [2] of
making this not take an argument. As noted in [1] "coccinelle" will
ignore such tokens in argument lists that it doesn't know about, and
it's less of a surprise to syntax highlighters.
This undoes the "help us notice when a parameter marked as unused is

Since 8d92fb2927 (dir: replace exponential algorithm with a linear one,
2020-04-01) traversing into a repository's directory tree when the
traversal began outside the repository's standard location has failed
because the encountered repository was identified as a nested foreign
repository.
Prior to this commit, the failure to traverse into a repository's
default worktree location was observable from a user's perspective under
either of the following conditions (there may be others):
1) Set the `core.worktree` location to a parent directory of the
default worktree; or
2) Use the `--git_dir` option while the working directory is outside
the repository's default worktree location
Under either of these conditions, symptoms of the failure to traverse
into the repository's default worktree location include the inability to
add files to the index or get a list of untracked files via ls-files.
This commit adds a check to determine whether a nested repository that
is encountered in recursing a path is actually `the_repository`. If so,
we simply treat the directory as if it doesn't contain a nested
repository.
The commit includes test-cases to reduce the likelihood of future
regressions.

Untracked cache was originally designed to only work with
"--untracked-files=normal", and is bypassed when
"--untracked-files=all" is requested, but this causes performance
issues for UI tooling that wants to see "all" on a frequent basis.
On the other hand, the conditions that altogether prevented
applicability to the "all" mode no longer seem to apply, after
several major refactors in recent years; this possibility was
discussed in
81153d02-8e7a-be59-e709-e90cd5906f3a@jeffhostetler.com and
CABPp-BFiwzzUgiTj_zu+vF5x20L0=1cf25cHwk7KZQj2YkVzXw@mail.gmail.com,
and somewhat confirmed experimentally by several users using a
version of this patch to use untracked cache with -uall for about a
year.
When 'git status' runs without using the untracked cache, on a large
repo, on windows, with fsmonitor, it can run very slowly. This can
make GUIs that need to use "-uall" (and therefore currently bypass
untracked cache) unusable when fsmonitor is enabled, on such large
repos.
To partially address this, align the supported directory flags for the
stored untracked cache data with the git config. If a user specifies
an '--untracked-files=' commandline parameter that does not align with
their 'status.showuntrackedfiles' config value, then the untracked
cache will be ignored - as it is for other unsupported situations like
when a pathspec is specified.
If the previously stored flags no longer match the current
configuration, but the currently-applicable flags do match the current
configuration, then discard the previously stored untracked cache
data.
For most users there will be no change in behavior. Users who need
'--untracked-files=all' to perform well will now have the option of
setting "status.showuntrackedfiles" to "all" for better / more
consistent performance.
Users who need '--untracked-files=all' to perform well for their
tooling AND prefer to avoid the verbosity of "all" when running
git status explicitly without options... are out of luck for now (no
change).
Users who have the "status.showuntrackedfiles" config set to "all"
and yet frequently explicitly call
'git status --untracked-files=normal' (and use the untracked cache)
are the only ones who will be disadvantaged by this change. Their
"--untracked-files=normal" calls will, after this change, no longer
use the untracked cache.

Prevent the repository root from being collapsed into a sparse directory by
treating an empty path as "inside the sparse-checkout". When collapsing a
sparse index (e.g. in 'git sparse-checkout reapply'), the root directory
typically could not become a sparse directory due to the presence of in-cone
root-level files and directories. However, if no such in-cone files or
directories were present, there was no explicit check signaling that the
"repository root path" (an empty string, in the case of
'convert_to_sparse(...)') was in-cone, and a sparse directory index entry
would be created from the repository root directory.
The documentation in Documentation/git-sparse-checkout.txt explicitly states
that the files in the root directory are expected to be in-cone for a
cone-mode sparse-checkout. Collapsing the root into a sparse directory entry
violates that assumption, as sparse directory entries are expected to be
outside the sparse cone and have SKIP_WORKTREE enabled. This invalid state
in turn causes issues with commands that interact with the index, e.g.
'git status'.
Treating an empty (root) path as in-cone prevents the creation of a root
sparse directory in 'convert_to_sparse(...)'. Because the repository root is
otherwise never compared with sparse patterns (in both cone-mode and
non-cone sparse-checkouts), the new check does not cause additional changes
to how sparse patterns are applied.

It is expected that an empty/unpopulated untracked cache structure can
be written to the index - by update-index, or by a "git status" call
that sees the untracked cache should be enabled and is not, but is
running with options that make the untracked cache non-applicable in
that run (eg a pathspec).
Currently, if that happens, then subsequent "git status" calls end up
populating the untracked cache, but not writing the index (not saving
their work) - so the performance outcome is almost identical to the
cache being altogether disabled.
This continues until the index gets written with the untracked cache
populated, for some *other* reason, such as a working tree change.
Detect the condition where an empty untracked cache exists in the
index and we will collect the list of untracked paths, and queue an
index write under that condition, so that the collected untracked
paths can be written out to the untracked cache extension in the
index.
This change depends on previous fixes to t7519 for the "ignore .git
changes when invalidating UNTR" test case to pass - before this fix,
the test never actually did anything as it was not set up correctly.

The GIT_FORCE_UNTRACKED_CACHE environment variable writes the untracked
cache more frequently than the core.untrackedCache config variable. This
is due to how read_directory() handles the creation of an untracked
cache.
Before this change, Git would not create the untracked cache extension
for an index that did not already have one. Users would need to run a
command such as 'git update-index --untracked-cache' before the index
would actually contain an untracked cache.
In particular, users noticed that the untracked cache would not appear
even with core.untrackedCache=true. Some users reported setting
GIT_FORCE_UNTRACKED_CACHE=1 in their engineering system environment to
ensure the untracked cache would be created.
The decision to not write the untracked cache without an environment
variable tracks back to fc9ecbeb9 (dir.c: don't flag the index as dirty
for changes to the untracked cache, 2018-02-05). The motivation of that
change is that writing the index is expensive, and if the untracked
cache is the only thing that needs to be written, then it is more
expensive than the benefit of the cache. However, this also means that
the untracked cache never gets populated, so the user who enabled it via
config does not actually get the extension until running 'git
update-index --untracked-cache' manually or using the environment
variable.
We have had a version of this change in the microsoft/git fork for a few
major releases now. It has been working well to get users into a good
state. Yes, that first index write is slow, but the remaining index
writes are much faster than they would be without this change.

When in cone mode sparse-checkout, it is unclear how 'git
sparse-checkout add <dir1> ...' should behave if the existing
sparse-checkout file does not match the cone mode patterns. Change the
behavior to fail with an error message about the existing patterns.
Also, all cone mode patterns start with a '/' character, so add that
restriction. This is necessary for our example test 'cone mode: warn on
bad pattern', but also requires modifying the example sparse-checkout
file we use to test the warnings related to recognizing cone mode
patterns.
This error checking would cause a failure further down the test script
because of a test that adds non-cone mode patterns without cleaning them
up. Perform that cleanup as part of the test now.

Then core.sparseCheckoutCone is enabled, the sparse-checkout patterns are
used to populate two hashsets that accelerate pattern matching. If the user
modifies the sparse-checkout file outside of the 'sparse-checkout' builtin,
then strange patterns can happen, triggering some error checks.
One of these error checks is possible to hit when some special characters
exist in a line. A warning message is correctly written to stderr, but then
there is additional logic that attempts to remove the line from the hashset
and free the data. This leads to a segfault in the 'git sparse-checkout
list' command because it iterates over the contents of the hashset, which is
now invalid.
The fix here is to stop trying to remove from the hashset. In addition,
we disable cone mode sparse-checkout because of the malformed data. This
results in the pattern-matching working with a possibly-slower
algorithm, but using the patterns as they are in the sparse-checkout
file.
This also changes the behavior of commands such as 'git sparse-checkout
list' because the output patterns will be the contents of the
sparse-checkout file instead of the list of directories. This is an
existing behavior for other types of bad patterns.
Add a test that triggers the segfault without the code change.

Modern git often tries to avoid leaving empty directories around when
removing files. Originally, it did not bother. This behavior started
with commit 80e21a9ed8 (merge-recursive::removeFile: remove empty
directories, 2005-11-19), stating the reason simply as:
When the last file in a directory is removed as the result of a
merge, try to rmdir the now-empty directory.
This was reimplemented in C and renamed to remove_path() in commit
e1b3a2cad7 ("Build-in merge-recursive", 2008-02-07), but was still
internal to merge-recursive.
This trend towards removing leading empty directories continued with
commit d9b814cc97 (Add builtin "git rm" command, 2006-05-19), which
stated the reasoning as:
The other question is what to do with leading directories. The old
"git rm" script didn't do anything, which is somewhat inconsistent.
This one will actually clean up directories that have become empty
as a result of removing the last file, but maybe we want to have a
flag to decide the behaviour?
remove_path() in dir.c was added in 4a92d1bfb7 (Add remove_path: a
function to remove as much as possible of a path, 2008-09-27), because
it was noted that we had two separate implementations of the same idea
AND both were buggy. It described the purpose of the function as
a function to remove as much as possible of a path
Why remove as much as possible? Well, at the time we probably would
have said something like:
* removing leading directories makes things feel tidy
* removing leading directories doesn't hurt anything so long as they
had no files in them.
But I don't believe those reasons hold when the empty directory happens
to be the current working directory we inherited from our parent
process. Leaving the parent process in a deleted directory can cause
user confusion when subsequent processes fail: any git command, for
example, will immediately fail with
fatal: Unable to read current working directory: No such file or directory
Other commands may similarly get confused. Modify remove_path() so that
the empty leading directories it also deletes does not include the
current working directory we inherited from our parent process. I have
looked through every caller of remove_path() in the current codebase to
make sure that all should take this change.

prevent this regression in the future.
The commit ed495847 (dir: fix pattern matching on dirs, 2021-09-24) was
reverted in 5ceb663 (dir: fix directory-matching bug, 2021-11-02) for
similar reasons. Neither commit changed tests, and tests added later in
the series continue to pass when these commits are reverted.

This reverts the change from ed49584 (dir: fix pattern matching on dirs,
2021-09-24), which claimed to fix a directory-matching problem without a
test case. It turns out to _create_ a bug, but it is a bit subtle.
The bug would have been revealed by the first of two tests being added to
t0008-ignores.sh. The first uses a pattern "/git/" inside the a/.gitignores
file, which matches against 'a/git/foo' but not 'a/git-foo/bar'. This test
would fail before the revert.
The second test shows what happens if the test instead uses a pattern "git/"
and this test passes both before and after the revert.
The difference in these two cases are due to how
last_matching_pattern_from_list() checks patterns both if they have the
PATTERN_FLAG_MUSTBEDIR and PATTERN_FLAG_NODIR flags. In the case of "git/",
the PATTERN_FLAG_NODIR is also provided, making the change in behavior in
match_pathname() not affect the end result of
last_matching_pattern_from_list().

These three commands recently learned to avoid updating paths outside
the sparse checkout even if they are missing the SKIP_WORKTREE bit. This
is done using path_in_sparse_checkout(), which checks whether a given
path matches the current list of sparsity rules, similar to what
clear_ce_flags() does when we run "git sparse checkout init" or "git
sparse-checkout reapply". However, clear_ce_flags() uses a recursive
approach, applying the match results from parent directories on paths
that get the UNDECIDED result, whereas path_in_sparse_checkout() only
attempts to match the full path and immediately considers UNDECIDED as
NOT_MATCHED. This makes the function miss matches with leading
directories. For example, if the user has the sparsity patterns "!/a"
and "b/", add, rm, and mv will fail to update the path "a/b/c" and end
up displaying a warning about it being outside the sparse checkout even
though it isn't. This problem only occurs in full pattern mode as the
pattern matching functions never return UNDECIDED for cone mode.
To fix this, replicate the recursive behavior of clear_ce_flags() in
path_in_sparse_checkout(), falling back to the parent directory match
when a path gets the UNDECIDED result. (If this turns out to be too
expensive in some cases, we may want to later add some form of caching
to accelerate multiple queries within the same directory. This is not
implemented in this patch, though.) Also add two tests for each affected
command (add, rm, and mv) to check that they behave correctly with the
recursive pattern matching. The first test would previously fail without
this patch while the second already succeeded. It is added mostly to
make sure that we are not breaking the existing pattern matching for
directories that are really sparse, and also as a protection against any
future regressions.
Two other existing tests had to be changed as well: one test in t3602
checks that "git rm -r <dir>" won't remove sparse entries, but it didn't
allow the non-sparse entries inside <dir> to be removed. The other one,
in t7002, tested that "git mv" would correctly display a warning message
for sparse paths, but it accidentally expected the message to include
two non-sparse paths as well.

t3705: test that 'sparse_entry' is unstaged
Within match_pathname(), one successful matching category happens when
the pattern is equal to its non-wildcard prefix. At this point, we have
checked that the input 'pathname' matches the pattern up to the prefix
length, and then we subtraced that length from both 'patternlen' and
'namelen'.
In the case of a directory match, this prefix match should be
sufficient. However, the success condition only cared about _exact_
equality here. Instead, we should allow any path that agrees on this
prefix in the case of PATTERN_FLAG_MUSTBEDIR.
This case was not tested before because of the way unpack_trees() would
match a parent directory before visiting the contained paths. This
approach is changing, so we must change this comparison.

When matching a path against a list of patterns, the ones that require a
directory match previously did not work when a filename is specified.
This was fine when all pattern-matching was done within methods such as
unpack_trees() that check a directory before recursing into the
contained files. However, other commands will start matching individual
files against pattern lists without that recursive approach.
The last_matching_pattern_from_list() logic performs some checks on the
filetype of a path within the index when the PATTERN_FLAG_MUSTBEDIR flag
is set. This works great when setting SKIP_WORKTREE bits within
unpack_trees(), but doesn't work well when passing an arbitrary path
such as a file within a matching directory.
We extract the logic around determining the file type, but attempt to
avoid checking the filesystem if the parent directory already matches
the sparse-checkout patterns. The new path_matches_dir_pattern() method
includes a 'path_parent' parameter that is used to store the parent
directory of 'pathname' between multiple pattern matching tests. This is
loaded lazily, only on the first pattern it finds that has the
PATTERN_FLAG_MUSTBEDIR flag.
If we find that a path has a parent directory, we start by checking to
see if that parent directory matches the pattern. If so, then we do not
need to query the index for the type (which can be expensive). If we
find that the parent does not match, then we still must check the type
from the index for the given pathname.
Note that this does not affect cone mode pattern matching, but instead
the more general -- and slower -- full pattern set. Thus, this does not
affect the sparse index.

In cone mode, the sparse-index code path learned to remove ignored
files (like build artifacts) outside the sparse cone, allowing the
entire directory outside the sparse cone to be removed, which is
especially useful when the sparse patterns change.

t7519: rewrite sparse index test
We currently store each submodule gitdir in ".git/modules/<name>", but
this has problems with some submodule naming schemes, as described in a
comment in submodule_name_to_gitdir() in this patch.
Extract the determination of the location of a submodule's gitdir into
its own function submodule_name_to_gitdir(). For now, the problem
remains unsolved, but this puts us in a better position for finding a
solution.
This was motivated, at $DAYJOB, by a part of Android's repo hierarchy
[1]. In particular, there is a repo "build", and several repos of the
form "build/<name>".
This is based on earlier work by Brandon Williams [2].

As we integrate the sparse index into more builtins, we occasionally
need to check the sparse-checkout patterns to see if a path is within
the sparse-checkout cone. Create some helper methods that help
initialize the patterns and check for pattern matching to make this
easier.
The existing callers of commands like get_sparse_checkout_patterns() use
a custom 'struct pattern_list' that is not necessarily the one in the
'struct index_state', so there are not many previous uses that could
adopt these helpers. There are just two in builtin/add.c and
sparse-index.c that can use path_in_sparse_checkout().
We add a path_in_cone_mode_sparse_checkout() as well that will only
return false if the path is outside of the sparse-checkout definition
_and_ the sparse-checkout patterns are in cone mode.
