2866fd284c name-rev: cleanup name_ref()
Earlier patches in this series moved a couple of conditions from the
recursive name_rev() function into its caller name_ref(), for no other
reason than to make eliminating the recursion a bit easier to follow.

Since the previous patch name_rev() is not recursive anymore, so let's
move all those conditions back into name_rev().

49f7a2fde9 name-rev: eliminate recursion in name_rev()
The name_rev() function calls itself recursively for each interesting
parent of the commit it got as parameter, and, consequently, it can
segfault when processing a deep history if it exhausts the available
stack space.  E.g. running 'git name-rev --all' and 'git name-rev
HEAD~100000' in the gcc, gecko-dev, llvm, and WebKit repositories
results in segfaults on my machine ('ulimit -s' reports 8192kB of
stack size limit), and nowadays the former segfaults in the Linux repo
as well (it reached the necessasry depth sometime between v5.3-rc4 and
-rc5).

Eliminate the recursion by inserting the interesting parents into a
LIFO 'prio_queue' [1] and iterating until the queue becomes empty.

Note that the parent commits must be added in reverse order to the
LIFO 'prio_queue', so their relative order is preserved during
processing, i.e. the first parent should come out first from the
queue, because otherwise performance greatly suffers on mergy
histories [2].

The stacksize-limited test 'name-rev works in a deep repo' in
't6120-describe.sh' demonstrated this issue and expected failure.  Now
the recursion is gone, so flip it to expect success.  Also gone are
the dmesg entries logging the segfault of that segfaulting 'git
name-rev' process on every execution of the test suite.

Note that this slightly changes the order of lines in the output of
'git name-rev --all', usually swapping two lines every 35 lines in
git.git or every 150 lines in linux.git.  This shouldn't matter in
practice, because the output has always been unordered anyway.

This patch is best viewed with '--ignore-all-space'.

[1] Early versions of this patch used a 'commit_list', resulting in
    ~15% performance penalty for 'git name-rev --all' in 'linux.git',
    presumably because of the memory allocation and release for each
    insertion and removal. Using a LIFO 'prio_queue' has basically no
    effect on performance.

[2] We prefer shorter names, i.e. 'v0.1~234' is preferred over
    'v0.1^2~5', meaning that usually following the first parent of a
    merge results in the best name for its ancestors.  So when later
    we follow the remaining parent(s) of a merge, and reach an already
    named commit, then we usually find that we can't give that commit
    a better name, and thus we don't have to visit any of its
    ancestors again.

    OTOH, if we were to follow the Nth parent of the merge first, then
    the name of all its ancestors would include a corresponding '^N'.
    Those are not the best names for those commits, so when later we
    reach an already named commit following the first parent of that
    merge, then we would have to update the name of that commit and
    the names of all of its ancestors as well.  Consequently, we would
    have to visit many commits several times, resulting in a
    significant slowdown.

fee984bcab name-rev: use 'name->tip_name' instead of 'tip_name'
Following the previous patches in this series we can get the value of
'name_rev()'s 'tip_name' parameter from the 'struct rev_name'
associated with the commit as well.

So let's use 'name->tip_name' instead, which makes the patch
eliminating the recursion of name_rev() a bit easier to follow.

Note that at this point we could drop the 'tip_name' parameter as
well, but that parameter will be necessary later, after the recursion
is eliminated.

8c5724c585 name-rev: drop name_rev()'s 'generation' and 'distance' parameters
Following the previous patches in this series we can get the values of
name_rev()'s 'generation' and 'distance' parameters from the 'stuct
rev_name' associated with the commit as well.

Let's simplify the function's signature and remove these two
unnecessary parameters.

Note that at this point we could do the same with the 'tip_name',
'taggerdate' and 'from_tag' parameters as well, but those parameters
will be necessary later, after the recursion is eliminated.

3a52150301 name-rev: restructure creating/updating 'struct rev_name' instances
At the beginning of the recursive name_rev() function it creates a new
'struct rev_name' instance for each previously unvisited commit or, if
this visit results in better name for an already visited commit, then
updates the 'struct rev_name' instance attached to the commit, or
returns early.

Restructure this so it's caller creates or updates the 'struct
rev_name' instance associated with the commit to be passed as
parameter, i.e. both name_ref() before calling name_rev() and
name_rev() itself as it iterates over the parent commits.

This makes eliminating the recursion a bit easier to follow, and the
condition moved to name_ref() will be moved back to name_rev() after
the recursion is eliminated.

This change also plugs the memory leak that was temporarily unplugged
in the earlier "name-rev: pull out deref handling from the recursion"
patch in this series.

dd432a6ecf name-rev: restructure parsing commits and applying date cutoff
At the beginning of the recursive name_rev() function it parses the
commit it got as parameter, and returns early if the commit is older
than a cutoff limit.

Restructure this so the caller parses the commit and checks its date,
and doesn't invoke name_rev() if the commit to be passed as parameter
is older than the cutoff, i.e. both name_ref() before calling
name_rev() and name_rev() itself as it iterates over the parent
commits.

This makes eliminating the recursion a bit easier to follow, and the
condition moved to name_ref() will be moved back to name_rev() after
the recursion is eliminated.

dd090a8a37 name-rev: pull out deref handling from the recursion
The 'if (deref) { ... }' condition near the beginning of the recursive
name_rev() function can only ever be true in the first invocation,
because the 'deref' parameter is always 0 in the subsequent recursive
invocations.

Extract this condition from the recursion into name_rev()'s caller and
drop the function's 'deref' parameter.  This makes eliminating the
recursion a bit easier to follow, and it will be moved back into
name_rev() after the recursion is eliminated.

Furthermore, drop the condition that die()s when both 'deref' and
'generation' are non-null (which should have been a BUG() to begin
with).

Note that this change reintroduces the memory leak that was plugged in
in commit 5308224633 (name-rev: avoid leaking memory in the `deref`
case, 2017-05-04), but a later patch (name-rev: restructure
creating/updating 'struct rev_name' instances) in this series will
plug it in again.

2e09c01232 name-rev: avoid cutoff timestamp underflow
When 'git name-rev' is invoked with commit-ish parameters, it tries to
save some work, and doesn't visit commits older than the committer
date of the oldest given commit minus a one day worth of slop.  Since
our 'timestamp_t' is an unsigned type, this leads to a timestamp
underflow when the committer date of the oldest given commit is within
a day of the UNIX epoch.  As a result the cutoff timestamp ends up
far-far in the future, and 'git name-rev' doesn't visit any commits,
and names each given commit as 'undefined'.

Check whether subtracting the slop from the oldest committer date
would lead to an underflow, and use no cutoff in that case.  We don't
have a TIME_MIN constant, dddbad728c (timestamp_t: a new data type for
timestamps, 2017-04-26) didn't add one, so do it now.

Note that the type of the cutoff timestamp variable used to be signed
before 5589e87fd8 (name-rev: change a "long" variable to timestamp_t,
2017-05-20).  The behavior was still the same even back then, but the
underflow didn't happen when substracting the slop from the oldest
committer date, but when comparing the signed cutoff timestamp with
unsigned committer dates in name_rev().  IOW, this underflow bug is as
old as 'git name-rev' itself.

d0229abd93 object: convert lookup_object() to use object_id
There are no callers left of lookup_object() that aren't just passing us
the "hash" member of a "struct object_id". Let's take the whole struct,
which gets us closer to removing all raw sha1 variables.  It also
matches the existing conversions of lookup_blob(), etc.

The conversions of callers were done by hand, but they're all mechanical
one-liners.

5308224633 name-rev: avoid leaking memory in the deref case
When the `name_rev()` function is asked to dereference the tip name, it
allocates memory. But when it turns out that another tip already
described the commit better than the current one, we forgot to release
the memory.

Pointed out by Coverity.

511dca80cc builtin/name-rev: convert to struct object_id
Convert all the uses of unsigned char [20] to struct object_id.  Also,
convert some hard-coded integers into constants.

name_rev_line accepts a wide variety of free-form input and only
interprets 40-character hex values, passing through everything else.
Consequently, it is not a good candidate for parse_oid_hex, which is
much stricter.

This change is a prerequisite for converting parse_object.

dddbad728c timestamp_t: a new data type for timestamps
Git's source code assumes that unsigned long is at least as precise as
time_t. Which is incorrect, and causes a lot of problems, in particular
where unsigned long is only 32-bit (notably on Windows, even in 64-bit
versions).

So let's just use a more appropriate data type instead. In preparation
for this, we introduce the new `timestamp_t` data type.

By necessity, this is a very, very large patch, as it has to replace all
timestamps' data type in one go.

As we will use a data type that is not necessarily identical to `time_t`,
we need to be very careful to use `time_t` whenever we interact with the
system functions, and `timestamp_t` everywhere else.

903fc7da44 name-rev: replace static buffer with strbuf
When name-rev needs to format an actual name, we do so into
a fixed-size buffer. That includes the actual ref tip, as
well as any traversal information. Since refs can exceed
1024 bytes, this means you can get a bogus result. E.g.,
doing:

   git tag $(perl -e 'print join("/", 1..1024)')
   git describe --contains HEAD^

results in ".../282/283", when it should be
".../1023/1024~1".

We can solve this by using a heap buffer. We'll use a
strbuf, which lets us write into the same buffer from our
loop without having to reallocate.

ef1e74065c name-rev: favor describing with tags and use committer date to tiebreak
"git name-rev" assigned a phony "far in the future" date to tips of
refs that are not pointing at tag objects, and favored names based
on a ref with the oldest date.  This made it almost impossible for
an unannotated tags and branches to be counted as a viable base,
which was especially problematic when the command is run with the
"--tags" option.  If an unannotated tag that points at an ancient
commit and an annotated tag that points at a much newer commit
reaches the commit that is being named, the old unannotated tag was
ignored.

Update the "taggerdate" field of the rev-name structure, which is
initialized from the tip of ref, to have the committer date if the
object at the tip of ref is a commit, not a tag, so that we can
optionally take it into account when doing "is this name better?"
comparison logic.

When "name-rev" is run without the "--tags" option, the general
expectation is still to name the commit based on a tag if possible,
but use non-tag refs as fallback, and tiebreak among these non-tag
refs by favoring names with shorter hops from the tip.  The use of a
phony "far in the future" date in the original code was an effective
way to ensure this expectation is held: a non-tag tip gets the same
"far in the future" timestamp, giving precedence to tags, and among
non-tag tips, names with shorter hops are preferred over longer
hops, without taking the "taggerdate" into account.  As we are
taking over the "taggerdate" field to store the committer date for
tips with commits:

 (1) keep the original logic when comparing names based on two refs
     both of which are from refs/tags/;

 (2) favoring a name based on a ref in refs/tags/ hierarchy over
     a ref outside the hierarchy;

 (3) between two names based on a ref both outside refs/tags/, give
     precedence to a name with shorter hops and use "taggerdate"
     only to tie-break.

A change to t4202 is a natural consequence.  The test creates a
commit on a branch "side" and points at it with an unannotated tag
"refs/tags/side-2".  The original code couldn't decide which one to
favor at all, and gave a name based on a branch (simply because
refs/heads/side sorts earlier than refs/tags/side-2).  Because the
updated logic is taught to favor refs in refs/tags/ hierarchy, the
the test is updated to expect to see tags/side-2 instead.

[mjg: open-coded the comparisons in is_better_name(), dropping a
helper macro used in the original]

0041bf6544 name-rev: refactor logic to see if a new candidate is a better name
When we encounter a new ref that could describe the commit we are
looking at, we compare the name that is formed using that ref and
the name we found so far and pick a better one.

Factor the comparison logic out to a separate helper function, while
keeping the current logic the same (i.e. a name that is based on an
older tag is better, and if two tags of the same age can reach the
commit, the one with fewer number of hops to reach the commit is
better).

96415b49dc name-rev: add support to exclude refs by pattern match
Extend git-name-rev to support excluding refs which match shell patterns
using --exclude. These patterns can be used to limit the scope of refs
by excluding any ref that matches one of the --exclude patterns. A ref
will only be used for naming when it matches at least one --refs pattern
but does not match any of the --exclude patterns. Thus, --exclude
patterns are given precedence over --refs patterns.

For example, suppose you wish to name a series of commits based on an
official release tag of the form "v*" but excluding any pre-release tags
which match "*rc*". You can use the following to do so:

  git name-rev --refs="v*" --exclude="*rc*" --all

290be6674a name-rev: extend --refs to accept multiple patterns
Teach git name-rev to take multiple --refs stored as a string list of
patterns. The list of patterns will be matched inclusively, and each ref
only needs to match one pattern to be included. A ref will only be
excluded if it does not match any of the given patterns. Additionally,
if any of the patterns would allow abbreviation, then we will abbreviate
the ref, even if another pattern is more strict and would not have
allowed abbreviation on its own.

Add tests and documentation for this change. The tests expected output
is dynamically generated.  This is in order to avoid hard-coding
a commit object name in the test results (as the expected output is to
simply leave the commit object unnamed).

309ca68e5a Merge branch 'js/name-rev-use-oldest-ref'
"git describe --contains" often made a hard-to-justify choice of
tag to give name to a given commit, because it tried to come up
with a name with smallest number of hops from a tag, causing an old
commit whose close descendant that is recently tagged were not
described with respect to an old tag but with a newer tag.  It did
not help that its computation of "hop" count was further tweaked to
penalize being on a side branch of a merge.  The logic has been
updated to favor using the tag with the oldest tagger date, which
is a lot easier to explain to the end users: "We describe a commit
in terms of the (chronologically) oldest tag that contains the
commit."

7550424804 name-rev: include taggerdate in considering the best name
We most likely want the oldest tag that contained the commit to be
reported. So let's remember the taggerdate, and make it more important
than anything else when choosing the best name for a given commit.

Suggested by Linus Torvalds.

Note that we need to update t9903 because it tested for the old behavior
(which preferred the description "b1~1" over "tags/t2~1").

We might want to introduce a --heed-taggerdate option, and make the new
behavior dependent on that, if it turns out that some scripts rely on the
old name-rev method.
