To enable optimize multiple pathspec items in revision traversal,
return 0 if all pathspec item is literal in forbid_bloom_filters().
Add for loops to initialize and check each pathspec item's bloom_keyvec
when optimization is possible.
Add new test cases in t/t4216-log-bloom.sh to ensure
- consistent results between the optimization for multiple pathspec
items using bloom filter and the case without bloom filter
optimization.
- does not use bloom filter if any pathspec item is not literal.
With these optimizations, we get some improvements for multi-pathspec runs
of 'git log'. First, in the Git repository we see these modest results:
Benchmark 1: old
Time (mean ± σ): 73.1 ms ± 2.9 ms
Range (min … max): 69.9 ms … 84.5 ms 42 runs
Benchmark 2: new
Time (mean ± σ): 55.1 ms ± 2.9 ms
Range (min … max): 51.1 ms … 61.2 ms 52 runs
Summary
'new' ran
1.33 ± 0.09 times faster than 'old'
But in a larger repo, such as the LLVM project repo below, we get even
better results:
Benchmark 1: old
Time (mean ± σ): 1.974 s ± 0.006 s
Range (min … max): 1.960 s … 1.983 s 10 runs
Benchmark 2: new

Range (min … max): 257.7 ms … 266.2 ms 11 runs

7.51 ± 0.07 times faster than 'old'

When preparing to use bloom filters in a revision walk, Git populates a
boom_keyvec with an array of bloom keys for the components of a path.
Before we create the ability to map multiple pathspecs to multiple
bloom_keyvecs, extract the conversion from a pathspec to a bloom_keyvec
into its own helper method. This simplifies the state that persists in
prepare_to_use_bloom_filter() as well as makes the future change much

Previously, we stored bloom keys in a flat array and marked a commit
as NOT TREESAME if any key reported "definitely not changed".
To support multiple pathspec items, we now require that for each
pathspec item, there exists a bloom key reporting "definitely not
changed".
This "for every" condition makes a flat array insufficient, so we
introduce a new structure to group keys by a single pathspec item.
`struct bloom_keyvec` is introduced to replace `struct bloom_key *`
and `bloom_key_nr`. And because we want to support multiple pathspec
items, we added a bloom_keyvec * and a bloom_keyvec_nr field to
`struct rev_info` to represent an array of bloom_keyvecs. This commit
still optimize only one pathspec item, thus bloom_keyvec_nr can only
be 0 or 1.
New bloom_keyvec_* functions are added to create and destroy a keyvec.
bloom_filter_contains_vec() is added to check if all key in keyvec is
contained in a bloom filter.

This patch adds a basic support of SHA256 Git repository to Gitk, so
that Gitk can show and operate on both SHA1 and SHA256 repos
gracefully. Since SHA256 has a longer ID length (64 char) than SHA1
(40 char), many field widths are adjusted to fit with it.
A caveat is that the configuration of auto selection length is shared
between SHA1 and SHA256 repos. That is, once when this value is saved
and read, it's applied to both repo types, which may result in shorter
selection than the full SHA256 ID. We may introduce another
individual config for sha256 (actually I did write in the first
version), but for simplicity, the common config is used as of writing
this.
Many lines still refer "sha1" although they may point to both SHA1 and
SHA256. They are left untouched for making the changes simpler.
This patch is based on the early work by Rostislav Krasny:

This error bisect back to 75a044f748 (git-compat-util.h: split out
POSIX-emulating bits, 2025-02-18), where lots of bits got split out of
"git-compat-util.h" into a new "compat/posix.h" header.
The compiler error isn't immediately obvious, doubly so because the
actual errors are ~3x as long as the above snippet. But what happens
here is that we transitively include <ctype.h> after we have included
our own "sane-ctype.h" header. Consequently, the function declarations
that exist in <ctype.h> for isascii(3p) et al will be mangled by our
macros of the same type. The result is of course completely broken.
It's unclear why this issue only happens on Amazon Linux 2. My guess is
that it's either specific to the compiler version or specific to the
glibc version. We don't explicitly include <ctypes.h> anywhere, but it's
being transitively included. So chances are that later versions of the
toolchain reorganized their headers so that <ctypes.h> is not included
transitively anymore.
Fix the issue by explicitly including <ctype.h> in "sane-ctype.h". This
ensures that the header guards will be activated and that any subsequent
include of the same header will become a no-op. With this we can then
safely override the function declarations with our own macros.

A recent commit, d9cb0e6ff8 (fast-export, fast-import: add support for
signed-commits, 2025-03-10), added support for signed commits to
fast-export and fast-import.
When a signed commit is processed, fast-export can output either
"gpgsig sha1" or "gpgsig sha256" depending on whether the signed
commit uses the SHA-1 or SHA-256 Git object format.
However, this implementation has a number of limitations:
- the output format was not properly described in the documentation,
- the output format is not very informative as it doesn't even say
if the signature is an OpenPGP, an SSH, or an X509 signature,
- the implementation doesn't support having both one signature on
the SHA-1 object and one on the SHA-256 object.
Let's improve on these limitations by improving fast-export and
fast-import so that:
- all the signatures are exported,
- at most one signature on the SHA-1 object and one on the SHA-256
are imported,
- if there is more than one signature on the SHA-1 object or on
the SHA-256 object, fast-import emits a warning for each
additional signature,
- the output format is "gpgsig <git-hash-algo> <signature-format>",
where <git-hash-algo> is the Git object format as before, and
<signature-format> is the signature type ("openpgp", "x509",
"ssh" or "unknown"),
- the output is properly documented.
About the output format:
- <git-hash-algo> allows to know which representation of the commit
was signed (the SHA-1 or the SHA-256 version) which helps with
both signature verification and interoperability between repos
with different hash functions,
- <signature-format> helps tools that process the fast-export
stream, so they don't have to parse the ASCII armor to identify
the signature type.
It could be even better to be able to import more than one signature
on the SHA-1 object and on the SHA-256 object, but other parts of
Git don't handle that well for now, so this is left for future
improvements.

In 4cba20fbdc (meson: prefer shell at "/bin/sh", 2025-04-25) we have
addressed an issue where the shell path embedded into Git was looked up
via PATH, which easily led to unportable shell paths other than the
usual "/bin/sh" location. The fix was to simply add '/bin' to the search
path explicitly, which made us prefer that directory over the PATH-based
lookup.
This fix causes issues on MINGW64 though, which uses Windows-style
paths. "/bin" is not an absolute Windows-style path, but Meson expects
the directories to be absolute. This leads to the following error:
meson.build:248:15: ERROR: Search directory /bin is not an absolute path.
Fix this by instead searching for both '/bin/sh' and 'sh', which also
causes us to prefer '/bin/sh' over a PATH-based lookup. Meson does
accept that path alright on MINGW64, even though it's not an absolute
Windows-style path, either.
Furthermore, this continues to work alright with cross-files, as well,
in case one wants to explicitly override the shell path:

The summary of auto-detected features prints a boolean for every option
to tell the user whether or not the feature has been auto-enabled or
not. This summary can be improved though, as in some cases this boolean
is derived from a dependency. So if we pass in the dependency directly,
then Meson knows to both print a boolean and, if the dependency was
found, it also prints a version number.
Adapt the code accordingly and enable `bool_yn` so that actual booleans
are formatted similarly to dependencies. Before this change:
Auto-detected features

invalid though, as we shouldn't check for the build host to have Python,
but for the target host.
Fix this invalid check to use the non-native version of Python and stop
searching for a native version of Python altogether.

When two remotes collide in the destinations of their fetch refspecs,
the results can be confusing. For example, in this silly example:
git config remote.one.url [...]
git config remote.one.fetch +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/collide/*
git config remote.two.url [...]
git config remote.two.fetch +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/collide/*
git fetch --all
we may try to write to the same ref twice (once for each remote we're
fetching). There's also a more subtle version of this. If you have
remotes "outer/inner" and "outer", then the ref "inner/branch" on the
second remote will conflict with just "branch" on the former (they both
want to write to "refs/remotes/outer/inner/branch").
We probably don't want to forbid this kind of overlap completely. While
the results can be confusing, there are legitimate reasons to have
multiple refs write into the same namespace (e.g., if one is a "backup"
of the other that is rarely fetched from).
But it may be worth limiting the porcelain "git remote" command to avoid
this confusion. The example above cannot be done with "git remote",
because it always[1] matches the refspecs to the remote name, and you
can only have one instance of each remote name. But you can still
trigger the more subtle variant like this:
git remote add outer [...]
git remote add outer/inner [...]
So let's detect that kind of name collision (in both directions) and
forbid it. You can still do whatever you like by manipulating the config
directly, but this should prevent the most obvious foot-gun.
[1] Almost always. With the --mirror option, the resulting refspec will
just write into "refs/*"; the remote name does not appear in the ref
namespace at all.
Our new "names must not overlap" rule is not necessary for that
case, but it seems reasonable to enforce it consistently. We already
require all remote names to be valid in the ref namespace, even
though we won't ever use them in that context for --mirror remotes.
Likewise, our new rule doesn't help with overlap here. Any two
mirror remotes will always overlap (in fact, any mirror remote along
with any other single one, since refs/remotes/ is a subset of the
mirrored refs). I'm not sure this is worth worrying about, but if it
is, we'd want an additional rule like "mirror remotes must be the
only remote".

"git push" and "git fetch" are taught to update refs in batches to
gain performance.
* kn/fetch-push-bulk-ref-update:
receive-pack: handle reference deletions separately
refs/files: skip updates with errors in batched updates
receive-pack: use batched reference updates
send-pack: fix memory leak around duplicate refs
fetch: use batched reference updates
refs: add function to translate errors to strings
