We sometimes write tempfiles of the form "shallow_XXXXXX"
during fetch/push operations with shallow repositories.
Under normal circumstances, we clean up the result when we
are done. However, we do no take steps to clean up after
ourselves when we exit due to die() or signal death.
This patch teaches the tempfile creation code to register
handlers to clean up after ourselves. To handle this, we
change the ownership semantics of the filename returned by
setup_temporary_shallow. It now keeps a copy of the filename
itself, and returns only a const pointer to it.
We can also do away with explicit tempfile removal in the
callers. They all exit not long after finishing with the
file, so they can rely on the auto-cleanup, simplifying the
code.
Note that we keep things simple and maintain only a single
filename to be cleaned. This is sufficient for the current
caller, but we future-proof it with a die("BUG").

Commit 58babfff ("shallow.c: the 8 steps to select new commits for

the quoted eight steps, namely 'remove_nonexistent_ours_in_pack()'.
This function implements an optional optimization step in the new

The basic 8 steps to update .git/shallow does not fully apply here
because the user may choose to accept just a few refs (while fetch
always accepts all refs). The steps are modified a bit.
1-6. same as before. After calling assign_shallow_commits_to_refs at
step 6, each shallow commit has a bitmap that marks all refs that
require it.
7. mark all "ours" shallow commits that are reachable from any
refs. We will need to do the original step 7 on them later.
8. go over all shallow commit bitmaps, mark refs that require new
shallow commits.
9. setup a strict temporary shallow file to plug all the holes, even
if it may cut some of our history short. This file is used by all
hooks. The hooks could use --shallow-file=$GIT_DIR/shallow to
overcome this and reach everything in current repo.
10. go over the new refs one by one. For each ref, do the reachability
test if it needs a shallow commit on the list from step 7. Remove
it if it's reachable from our refs. Gather all required shallow
commits, run check_everything_connected() with the new ref, then
install them to .git/shallow.
This mode is disabled by default and can be turned on with
receive.shallowupdate

If either receive-pack or upload-pack is called on a shallow
repository, shallow commits (*) will be sent after the ref
advertisement (but before the packet flush), so that the receiver has
the full "shape" of the sender's commit graph. This will be needed for
the receiver to update its .git/shallow if necessary.
This breaks the protocol for all clients trying to push to a shallow
repo, or fetch from one. Which is basically the same end result as
today's "is_repository_shallow() && die()" in receive-pack and
upload-pack. New clients will be made aware of shallow upstream and
can make use of this information.
The sender must send all shallow commits that are sent in the
following pack. It may send more shallow commits than necessary.
upload-pack for example may choose to advertise no shallow commits if
it knows in advance that the pack it's going to send contains no
shallow commits. But upload-pack is the server, so we choose the
cheaper way, send full .git/shallow and let the client deal with it.
Smart HTTP is not affected by this patch. Shallow support on
smart-http comes later separately.
(*) A shallow commit is a commit that terminates the revision
walker. It is usually put in .git/shallow in order to keep the
revision walker from going out of bound because there is no
guarantee that objects behind this commit is available.

- From the beginning of push.c in 755225d, 2006-04-29, "thin" option
was enabled by default but could be turned off with --no-thin.
- Then Shawn changed the default to 0 in favor of saving server
resources in a4503a1, 2007-09-09. --no-thin worked great.
- One day later, in 9b28851 Daniel extracted some code from push.c to
create transport.c. He (probably accidentally) flipped the default
value from 0 to 1 in transport_get().
From then on --no-thin is effectively no-op because git-push still
expects the default value to be false and only calls
transport_set_option() when "thin" variable in push.c is true (which
is unnecessary). Correct the code to respect --no-thin by calling
transport_set_option() in both cases.
receive-pack learns about --reject-thin-pack-for-testing option,
which only is for testing purposes, hence no document update.

The definition of "struct ref" in "cache.h", a header file so

about the local ref used by sha1-name API to name local objects.
It is what refspecs are expanded into, after finding out what refs
the other side has, to define what refs are updated after object
transfer succeeds to what values. It belongs to "remote.h" together
with "struct refspec".

Since commit a22e6f8 (receive-pack: send pack-processing
stderr over sideband, 2012-09-21), receive-pack will start
an async sideband thread to copy the stderr from our
index-pack or unpack-objects child to the client. We hand
the thread's input descriptor to unpack(), which puts it in
the "err" member of the "struct child_process".
After unpack() returns, we use finish_async() to reap the
sideband thread. The thread is only ready to die when it
gets EOF on its pipe, which is connected to the err
descriptor. So we expect all of the write ends of that pipe
to be closed as part of unpack().
Normally, this works fine. After start_command forks, it
closes the parent copy of the descriptor. Then once the
child exits (whether it was successful or not), that closes
the only remaining writer.
However, there is one code-path in unpack() that does not
handle this. Before we decide which of unpack-objects or
index-pack to use, we read the pack header ourselves to see
how many objects it contains. If there is an error here, we
exit without running either sub-command, the pipe descriptor
remains open, and we are in a deadlock, waiting for the
sideband thread to die (which is in turn waiting for us to
close the pipe).
We can fix this by making sure that unpack() always closes
the pipe before returning.

Most of the callers of packet_read_line just read into a
static 1000-byte buffer (callers which handle arbitrary
binary data already use LARGE_PACKET_MAX). This works fine
in practice, because:
1. The only variable-sized data in these lines is a ref
name, and refs tend to be a lot shorter than 1000
characters.
2. When sending ref lines, git-core always limits itself
to 1000 byte packets.
However, the only limit given in the protocol specification
in Documentation/technical/protocol-common.txt is
LARGE_PACKET_MAX; the 1000 byte limit is mentioned only in
pack-protocol.txt, and then only describing what we write,
not as a specific limit for readers.
This patch lets us bump the 1000-byte limit to
LARGE_PACKET_MAX. Even though git-core will never write a
packet where this makes a difference, there are two good
reasons to do this:
1. Other git implementations may have followed
protocol-common.txt and used a larger maximum size. We
don't bump into it in practice because it would involve
very long ref names.
2. We may want to increase the 1000-byte limit one day.
Since packets are transferred before any capabilities,
it's difficult to do this in a backwards-compatible
way. But if we bump the size of buffer the readers can
handle, eventually older versions of git will be
obsolete enough that we can justify bumping the
writers, as well. We don't have plans to do this
anytime soon, but there is no reason not to start the
clock ticking now.
Just bumping all of the reading bufs to LARGE_PACKET_MAX
would waste memory. Instead, since most readers just read
into a temporary buffer anyway, let's provide a single
static buffer that all callers can use. We can further wrap
this detail away by having the packet_read_line wrapper just
use the buffer transparently and return a pointer to the
static storage. That covers most of the cases, and the
remaining ones already read into their own LARGE_PACKET_MAX
buffers.

The packets sent during ref negotiation are all terminated
by newline; even though the code to chomp these newlines is
short, we end up doing it in a lot of places.
This patch teaches packet_read_line to auto-chomp the
trailing newline; this lets us get rid of a lot of inline
chomping code.
As a result, some call-sites which are not reading
line-oriented data (e.g., when reading chunks of packfiles
alongside sideband) transition away from packet_read_line to
the generic packet_read interface. This patch converts all
of the existing callsites.
Since the function signature of packet_read_line does not
change (but its behavior does), there is a possibility of
new callsites being introduced in later commits, silently
introducing an incompatibility. However, since a later
patch in this series will change the signature, such a
commit would have to be merged directly into this commit,
not to the tip of the series; we can therefore ignore the
issue.
This is an internal cleanup and should produce no change of
behavior in the normal case. However, there is one corner
case to note. Callers of packet_read_line have never been
able to tell the difference between a flush packet ("0000")
and an empty packet ("0004"), as both cause packet_read_line
to return a length of 0. Readers treat them identically,
even though Documentation/technical/protocol-common.txt says
we must not; it also says that implementations should not
send an empty pkt-line.
By stripping out the newline before the result gets to the
caller, we will now treat the newline-only packet ("0005\n")
the same as an empty packet, which in turn gets treated like
a flush packet. In practice this doesn't matter, as neither
empty nor newline-only packets are part of git's protocols
(at least not for the line-oriented bits, and readers who
are not expecting line-oriented packets will be calling
packet_read directly, anyway). But even if we do decide to
care about the distinction later, it is orthogonal to this
patch. The right place to tighten would be to stop treating
empty packets as flush packets, and this change does not
make doing so any harder.

A repository may have refs that are only used for its internal
bookkeeping purposes that should not be exposed to the others that
come over the network.
Teach upload-pack to omit some refs from its initial advertisement
by paying attention to the uploadpack.hiderefs multi-valued
configuration variable. Do the same to receive-pack via the
receive.hiderefs variable. As a convenient short-hand, allow using
transfer.hiderefs to set the value to both of these variables.
Any ref that is under the hierarchies listed on the value of these
variable is excluded from responses to requests made by "ls-remote",
"fetch", etc. (for upload-pack) and "push" (for receive-pack).
Because these hidden refs do not count as OUR_REF, an attempt to
fetch objects at the tip of them will be rejected, and because these
refs do not get advertised, "git push :" will not see local branches
that have the same name as them as "matching" ones to be sent.
An attempt to update/delete these hidden refs with an explicit
refspec, e.g. "git push origin :refs/hidden/22", is rejected. This
is not a new restriction. To the pusher, it would appear that there
is no such ref, so its push request will conclude with "Now that I
sent you all the data, it is time for you to update the refs. I saw
that the ref did not exist when I started pushing, and I want the
result to point at this commit". The receiving end will apply the
compare-and-swap rule to this request and rejects the push with
"Well, your update request conflicts with somebody else; I see there
is such a ref.", which is the right thing to do. Otherwise a push to
a hidden ref will always be "the last one wins", which is not a good
default.

than a duplicate because it is anticipated that the return value will
either be used as a boolean, immediately added to an argv_array list

Receive-pack invokes either unpack-objects or index-pack to
handle the incoming pack. However, we do not redirect the
stderr of the sub-processes at all, so it is never seen by
the client. From the initial thread adding sideband support,
which is here:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/139471
it is clear that some messages are specifically kept off the
sideband (with the assumption that they are of interest only
to an administrator, not the client). The stderr of the
subprocesses is mentioned in the thread, but it's unclear if
they are included in that group, or were simply forgotten.
However, there are a few good reasons to show them to the
client:
1. In many cases, they are directly about the incoming
packfile (e.g., fsck warnings with --strict, corruption
in the packfile, etc). Without these messages, the
client just gets "unpacker error" with no extra useful
diagnosis.
2. No matter what the cause, we are probably better off
showing the errors to the client. If the client and the
server admin are not the same entity, it is probably
much easier for the client to cut-and-paste the errors
they see than for the admin to try to dig them out of a
log and correlate them with a particular session.
3. Users of the ssh transport typically already see these
stderr messages, as the remote's stderr is copied
literally by ssh. This brings other transports (http,
and push-over-git if you are crazy enough to enable it)
more in line with ssh. As a bonus for ssh users,
because the messages are now fed through the sideband
and printed by the local git, they will have "remote:"
prepended and be properly interleaved with any local
output to stderr.

Instead of having the client advertise a particular version
number in the git protocol, we have managed extensions and
backwards compatibility by having clients and servers
advertise capabilities that they support. This is far more
robust than having each side consult a table of
known versions, and provides sufficient information for the
protocol interaction to complete.
However, it does not allow servers to keep statistics on
which client versions are being used. This information is
not necessary to complete the network request (the
capabilities provide enough information for that), but it
may be helpful to conduct a general survey of client
versions in use.
We already send the client version in the user-agent header
for http requests; adding it here allows us to gather
similar statistics for non-http requests.

and the post-update hook receives as arguments:
refs/heads/nonexistent
which does not make sense since it is a no-op.
Teach receive-pack not to pass non-existent refs to the post-receive and

these hooks are not even called.
The update and pre-receive hooks are still notified about attempted

Change upload-pack and receive-pack to use the namespace-prefixed refs
when working with the repository, and use the unprefixed refs when
talking to the client, maintaining the masquerade. This allows
clone, pull, fetch, and push to work with a suitably configured
GIT_NAMESPACE.
receive-pack advertises refs outside the current namespace as .have refs
(as it currently does for refs in alternates), so that the client can
use them to minimize data transfer but will otherwise ignore them.
With appropriate configuration, this also allows http-backend to expose
namespaces as multiple repositories with different paths. This only
requires setting GIT_NAMESPACE, which http-backend passes through to
upload-pack and receive-pack.

When receiving a push, we advertise ref tips from any
alternate repositories, in case that helps the client send a
smaller pack. Since these refs don't actually exist in the
destination repository, we don't transmit the real ref
names, but instead use the pseudo-ref ".have".
If your alternate has a large number of duplicate refs (for
example, because it is aggregating objects from many related
repositories, some of which will have the same tags and
branch tips), then we will send each ".have $sha1" line
multiple times. This is a pointless waste of bandwidth, as
we are simply repeating the same fact to the client over and
over.
This patch eliminates duplicate .have refs early on. It does
so efficiently by sorting the complete list and skipping
duplicates. This has the side effect of re-ordering the
.have lines by ascending sha1; this isn't a problem, though,
as the original order was meaningless.
There is a similar .have system in fetch-pack, but it
does not suffer from the same problem. For each alternate
ref we consider in fetch-pack, we actually open the object
and mark it with the SEEN flag, so duplicates are
automatically culled.

The foreach_alt_odb function triggers a callback for each
alternate object db we have, with room for a single void
pointer as data. Currently, we always call refs_from_alternate_cb
as the callback function, and then pass another callback (to
receive each ref individually) as the void pointer.
This has two problems:
1. C technically forbids stuffing a function pointer into
a "void *". In practice, this probably doesn't matter
on any architectures git runs on, but it never hurts to
follow the letter of the law.
2. There is no room for an extra data pointer. Indeed, the
alternate_ref_fn that refs_from_alternate_cb calls
takes a void* for data, but we always pass it NULL.
Instead, let's properly stuff our function pointer into a
data struct, which also leaves room for an extra
caller-supplied data pointer. And to keep things simple for
existing callers, let's make a for_each_alternate_ref
function that takes care of creating the extra struct.

* load_file() returns a void pointer but is using 0 for the return
value
* builtin/receive-pack.c forgot to include builtin.h
* packet_trace_prefix can be marked static
* ll_merge takes a pointer for its last argument, not an int
* crc32 expects a pointer as the second argument but Z_NULL is defined
to be 0 (see 38f4d13 sparse fix: Using plain integer as NULL pointer,

The receiving end of "git push" advertises the objects that the repository
itself does not use, but are at the tips of refs in other repositories
whose object databases are used as alternates for it. This helps it avoid
having to receive (and the pusher having to send) objects that are already
available to the receiving repository via the alternates mechanism.
Tweak the helper function that implements this feature, and move it to
transport.[ch] for future reuse by other programs.
The additional test demonstrates how this optimization is helping "git push",
and "git fetch" is ignorant about it.

Rename the make_*_path functions so it's clearer what they do, in
particlar make clear what the differnce between make_absolute_path and
make_nonrelative_path is by renaming them real_path and absolute_path
respectively. make_relative_path has an understandable name and is
renamed to relative_path to maintain the name convention.
The function calls have been replaced 1-to-1 in their usage.

This shows a trace of all packets coming in or out of a given
program. This can help with debugging object negotiation or
other protocol issues.
To keep the code changes simple, we operate at the lowest
level, meaning we don't necessarily understand what's in the
packets. The one exception is a packet starting with "PACK",
which causes us to skip that packet and turn off tracing
(since the gigantic pack data will not be interesting to
read, at least not in the trace format).
We show both written and read packets. In the local case,
this may mean you will see packets twice (written by the
sender and read by the receiver). However, for cases where
the other end is remote, this allows you to see the full
conversation.
Packet tracing can be enabled with GIT_TRACE_PACKET=<foo>,
where <foo> takes the same arguments as GIT_TRACE.
