`for_each_bisect_ref()` is called by `for_each_bad_bisect_ref()` with
a term "bad". This used to make it call `for_each_ref_in_submodule()`
with a prefix "refs/bisect/bad". But the latter is the name of the
reference that is being sought, so the empty string was being passed
to the callback as the trimmed refname. Moreover, this questionable
practice was turned into an error by
b9c8e7f2fb prefix_ref_iterator: don't trim too much, 2017-05-22
It makes more sense (and agrees better with the documentation of
`--bisect`) for the callers to receive the full reference names. So
* Add a new function, `for_each_fullref_in_submodule()`, to the refs
API. This plugs a gap in the existing functionality, analogous to
`for_each_fullref_in()` but accepting a `submodule` argument.
* Change `for_each_bad_bisect_ref()` to call the new function rather
than `for_each_ref_in_submodule()`.
* Add a test.

In the future, compound reference stores will sometimes need to modify
references in two different reference stores at the same time, meaning
that a single logical reference transaction might have to be
implemented as two internal sub-transactions. They won't want to call
`ref_transaction_commit()` for the two sub-transactions one after the
other, because that wouldn't be atomic (the first commit could succeed
and the second one fail). Instead, they will want to prepare both
sub-transactions (i.e., obtain any necessary locks and do any
pre-checks), and only if both prepare steps succeed, then commit both
sub-transactions.
Start preparing for that day by adding a new, optional
`ref_transaction_prepare()` step to the reference transaction
sequence, which obtains the locks and does any prechecks, reporting
any errors that occur. Also add a `ref_transaction_abort()` function
that can be used to abort a sub-transaction even if it has already
been prepared.
That is on the side of the public-facing API. On the side of the
`ref_store` VTABLE, get rid of `transaction_commit` and instead add
methods `transaction_prepare`, `transaction_finish`, and
`transaction_abort`. A `ref_transaction_commit()` now basically calls
methods `transaction_prepare` then `transaction_finish`.

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.

Renaming the current branch adds an event to the current branch's log
and to HEAD's log. However, the logged entries differ. The entry in
the branch's log represents the entire renaming operation (the old and
new hash are identical), whereas the entry in HEAD's log represents
the deletion only (the new sha1 is null).
Extend replace_each_worktree_head_symref(), whose only caller is
branch_rename(), to take a reflog message argument. This allows the
creation of the new ref to be recorded in HEAD's log. As a result,
the renaming event is represented by two entries (a deletion and a
creation entry) in HEAD's log.
It's a bit unfortunate that the branch's log and HEAD's log now
represent the renaming event in different ways. Given that the
renaming operation is not atomic, the two-entry form is a more
accurate representation of the operation and is more useful for
debugging purposes if a failure occurs between the deletion and
creation events. It would make sense to move the branch's log to the
two-entry form, but this would involve changes to how the rename is
carried out and to how the update flags and reflogs are processed for
deletions, so it may not be worth the effort.

When the current branch is renamed with 'git branch -m/-M' or deleted
with 'git update-ref -m<msg> -d', the event is recorded in HEAD's log
with an empty message. In preparation for adding a more meaningful
message to HEAD's log in these cases, update delete_ref() to take a
message argument and pass it along to ref_transaction_delete().
Modify all callers to pass NULL for the new message argument; no
change in behavior is intended.
Note that this is relevant for HEAD's log but not for the deleted
ref's log, which is currently deleted along with the ref. Even if it
were not, an entry for the deletion wouldn't be present in the deleted
ref's log. files_transaction_commit() writes to the log if
REF_NEEDS_COMMIT or REF_LOG_ONLY are set, but lock_ref_for_update()
doesn't set REF_NEEDS_COMMIT for the deleted ref because REF_DELETING
is set. In contrast, the update for HEAD has REF_LOG_ONLY set by
split_head_update(), resulting in the deletion being logged.

When core.logallrefupdates is true, we only create a new reflog for refs
that are under certain well-known hierarchies. The reason is that we
know that some hierarchies (like refs/tags) are not meant to change, and
that unknown hierarchies might not want reflogs at all (e.g., a
hypothetical refs/foo might be meant to change often and drop old
history immediately).
However, sometimes it is useful to override this decision and simply log
for all refs, because the safety and audit trail is more important than
the performance implications of keeping the log around.
This patch introduces a new "always" mode for the core.logallrefupdates
option which will log updates to everything under refs/, regardless
where in the hierarchy it is (we still will not log things like
ORIG_HEAD and FETCH_HEAD, which are known to be transient).

Currently, the API for iterating over references is via a family of
for_each_ref()-type functions that invoke a callback function for each
selected reference. All of these eventually call do_for_each_ref(),
which knows how to do one thing: iterate in parallel through two
ref_caches, one for loose and one for packed refs, giving loose
references precedence over packed refs. This is rather complicated code,
and is quite specialized to the files backend. It also requires callers
to encapsulate their work into a callback function, which often means
that they have to define and use a "cb_data" struct to manage their
context.
The current design is already bursting at the seams, and will become
even more awkward in the upcoming world of multiple reference storage
backends:
* Per-worktree vs. shared references are currently handled via a kludge
in git_path() rather than iterating over each part of the reference
namespace separately and merging the results. This kludge will cease
to work when we have multiple reference storage backends.
* The current scheme is inflexible. What if we sometimes want to bypass
the ref_cache, or use it only for packed or only for loose refs? What
if we want to store symbolic refs in one type of storage backend and
non-symbolic ones in another?
In the future, each reference backend will need to define its own way of
iterating over references. The crux of the problem with the current
design is that it is impossible to compose for_each_ref()-style
iterations, because the flow of control is owned by the for_each_ref()
function. There is nothing that a caller can do but iterate through all
references in a single burst, so there is no way for it to interleave
references from multiple backends and present the result to the rest of
the world as a single compound backend.
This commit introduces a new iteration primitive for references: a
ref_iterator. A ref_iterator is a polymorphic object that a reference
storage backend can be asked to instantiate. There are three functions
that can be applied to a ref_iterator:
* ref_iterator_advance(): move to the next reference in the iteration
* ref_iterator_abort(): end the iteration before it is exhausted
* ref_iterator_peel(): peel the reference currently being looked at
Iterating using a ref_iterator leaves the flow of control in the hands
of the caller, which means that ref_iterators from multiple
sources (e.g., loose and packed refs) can be composed and presented to
the world as a single compound ref_iterator.
It also means that the backend code for implementing reference iteration
will sometimes be more complicated. For example, the
cache_ref_iterator (which iterates over a ref_cache) can't use the C
stack to recurse; instead, it must manage its own stack internally as
explicit data structures. There is also a lot of boilerplate connected
with object-oriented programming in C.
Eventually, end-user callers will be able to be written in a more
natural way—managing their own flow of control rather than having to
work via callbacks. Since there will only be a few reference backends
but there are many consumers of this API, this is a good tradeoff.
More importantly, we gain composability, and especially the possibility
of writing interchangeable parts that can work with any ref_iterator.
For example, merge_ref_iterator implements a generic way of merging the
contents of any two ref_iterators. It is used to merge loose + packed
refs as part of the implementation of the files_ref_iterator. But it
will also be possible to use it to merge other pairs of reference
sources (e.g., per-worktree vs. shared refs).
Another example is prefix_ref_iterator, which can be used to trim a
prefix off the front of reference names before presenting them to the
caller (e.g., "refs/heads/master" -> "master").
In this patch, we introduce the iterator abstraction and many utilities,
and implement a reference iterator for the files ref storage backend.
(I've written several other obvious utilities, for example a generic way
to filter references being iterated over. These will probably be useful
in the future. But they are not needed for this patch series, so I am
not including them at this time.)
In a moment we will rewrite do_for_each_ref() to work via reference
iterators (allowing some special-purpose code to be discarded), and do
something similar for reflogs. In future patch series, we will expose
the ref_iterator abstraction in the public refs API so that callers can
use it directly.
Implementation note: I tried abstracting this a layer further to allow
generic iterators (over arbitrary types of objects) and generic
utilities like a generic merge_iterator. But the implementation in C was
very cumbersome, involving (in my opinion) too much boilerplate and too
much unsafe casting, some of which would have had to be done on the
caller side. However, I did put a few iterator-related constants in a
top-level header file, iterator.h, as they will be useful in a moment to
implement iteration over directory trees and possibly other types of
iterators in the future.

Once upon a time, create_symref() was used only to point
HEAD at a branch name, and the variable names reflect that
(e.g., calling the path git_HEAD). However, it is much more
generic these days (and has been for some time). Let's
update the variable names to make it easier to follow:
- `ref_target` is now just `refname`. This is closer to
the `ref` that is already in `cache.h`, but with the
extra twist that "name" makes it clear this is the name
and not a ref struct. Dropping "target" hopefully makes
it clear that we are talking about the symref itself,
not what it points to.
- `git_HEAD` is now `ref_path`; the on-disk path
corresponding to `ref`.
- `refs_heads_master` is now just `target`; i.e., what the
symref points at. This term also matches what is in
the symlink(2) manpage (at least on Linux).
- the buffer to hold the symref file's contents was simply
called `ref`. It's now `buf` (admittedly also generic,
but at least not actively introducing confusion with the
other variable holding the refname).

The ref_transaction_update() family of functions use the following
convention for their old_sha1 parameters:
* old_sha1 == NULL: Don't check the old value at all.
* is_null_sha1(old_sha1): Ensure that the reference didn't exist
before the transaction.
* otherwise: Ensure that the reference had the specified value before
the transaction.
delete_ref() had a different convention, namely treating
is_null_sha1(old_sha1) as "don't care". Change it to adhere to the
standard convention to reduce the scope for confusion.
Please note that it is now a bug to pass old_sha1=NULL_SHA1 to
delete_ref() (because it doesn't make sense to delete a reference that
you already know doesn't exist). This is consistent with the behavior
of ref_transaction_delete().
Most of the callers of delete_ref() never pass old_sha1=NULL_SHA1 to
delete_ref(), and are therefore unaffected by this change. The
two exceptions are:
* The call in cmd_update_ref(), which passed NULL_SHA1 if the old
value passed in on the command line was 0{40} or the empty string.
Change that caller to pass NULL in those cases.
Arguably, it should be an error to call "update-ref -d" with the old
value set to "does not exist", just as it is for the `--stdin`
command "delete". But since this usage was accepted until now,
continue to accept it.
* The call in delete_branches(), which could pass NULL_SHA1 if
deleting a broken or symbolic ref. Change it to pass NULL in these
cases.

"git clone" uses shortcuts when creating the initial set of

* It doesn't lock the individual references (though it does lock the
packed-refs file).
* It doesn't check for refname conflicts between two new references or
between one new reference and any hypothetical old ones.
* It doesn't create reflog entries for the reference creations.
This functionality was implemented in builtin/clone.c. But really that
file shouldn't have such intimate knowledge of how references are
stored. So provide a new function in the refs API,
initial_ref_transaction_commit(), which can be used for initial
reference creation. The new function is based on the ref_transaction
interface.
This means that we can make some other functions private to the refs
module. That will be done in a followup commit.
It would seem to make sense to add a test here that there are no
existing references, because that is how the function *should* be
used. But in fact, the "testgit" remote helper appears to call it
*after* having set up refs/remotes/<name>/HEAD and
refs/remotes/<name>/master, so we can't be so strict. For now, the
function trusts its caller to only call it when it makes sense. Future

* Rename the second parameter to "old_sha1", to be consistent with the
convention used elsewhere in the refs module

All of the callers of the for_each_ref family of functions have now
been rewritten to work with object_ids, so this adapter is no longer
needed.

Change typedef each_ref_fn to take a "const struct object_id *oid"
parameter instead of "const unsigned char *sha1".
To aid this transition, implement an adapter that can be used to wrap
old-style functions matching the old typedef, which is now called
"each_ref_sha1_fn"), and make such functions callable via the new
interface. This requires the old function and its cb_data to be
wrapped in a "struct each_ref_fn_sha1_adapter", and that object to be
used as the cb_data for an adapter function, each_ref_fn_adapter().
This is an enormous diff, but most of it consists of simple,
mechanical changes to the sites that call any of the "for_each_ref"
family of functions. Subsequent to this change, the call sites can be
rewritten one by one to use the new interface.
