Teach oid_object_info_extended() to support a new flag that inhibits
fetching of missing objects. This is equivalent to setting
fetch_is_missing to 0, calling oid_object_info_extended(), then setting
fetch_if_missing to whatever it was before. Update unpack-trees.c to use
this new flag instead of repeatedly setting fetch_if_missing.
This new flag complicates things slightly in that there are now 2 ways
to do the same thing. But this eliminates the need to repeatedly set a
global variable, and more importantly, allows prefetching to be done in
parallel (in the future); hence, this patch.

Phillip found out that 'git checkout -f <branch>' does not restore
conflict/unmerged files correctly. All tracked files should be taken
from <branch> and all non-zero stages removed. Most of this is true,
except that the final file could be in stage one instead of zero.
"checkout -f" (among other commands) does this with one-way merge, which
is supposed to take stat info from the index and everything else from
the given tree. The add_entry(.., old, ...) call in oneway_merge()
though will keep stage index from the index.
This is normally not a problem if the entry from the index is
normal (stage #0
entry as "old" variable, which gets recorded in
the final index. Fix it by clearing stage mask.
This bug probably comes from b5b425074e (git-read-tree: make one-way
merge also honor the "update" flag, 2005-06-07). Before this commit, we
may create the final ("dst") index entry from the one in index, but we
do clear CE_STAGEMASK.
I briefly checked two- and three-way merge functions. I think we don't
have the same problem in those.

When parsing a tree, we read the object ID directly out of the tree
buffer. This is normally fine, but such an object ID cannot be used with
oidcpy, which copies GIT_MAX_RAWSZ bytes, because if we are using SHA-1,
there may not be that many bytes to copy.
Instead, store the object ID in a separate struct member. Since we can
no longer efficiently compute the path length, store that information as
well in struct name_entry. Ensure we only copy the object ID into the
new buffer if the path length is nonzero, as some callers will pass us
an empty path with no object ID following it, and we will not want to
read past the end of the buffer.

One of the problems with "git checkout" is that it does so many
different things and could confuse people specially when we fail to
handle ambiguation correctly.
One way to help with that is tell the user what sort of operation is
actually carried out. When switching branches, we always print
something unless --quiet, either
- "HEAD is now at ..."
- "Reset branch ..."
- "Already on ..."
- "Switched to and reset ..."
- "Switched to a new branch ..."
- "Switched to branch ..."
Checking out paths however is silent. Print something so that if we
got the user intention wrong, they won't waste too much time to find
that out. For the remaining cases of checkout we now print either
- "Checked out ... paths out of the index"
- "Checked out ... paths out of <abbrev hash>"
Since the purpose of printing this is to help disambiguate. Only do it
when "--" is missing.

Using the more restrictive oideq() should, in the long run,
give the compiler more opportunities to optimize these
callsites. For now, this conversion should be a complete
noop with respect to the generated code.
The result is also perhaps a little more readable, as it
avoids the "zero is equal" idiom. Since it's so prevalent in
C, I think seasoned programmers tend not to even notice it
anymore, but it can sometimes make for awkward double
negations (e.g., we can drop a few !!oidcmp() instances
here).
This patch was generated almost entirely by the included
coccinelle patch. This mechanical conversion should be
completely safe, because we check explicitly for cases where
oidcmp() is compared to 0, which is what oideq() is doing
under the hood. Note that we don't have to catch "!oidcmp()"
separately; coccinelle's standard isomorphisms make sure the
two are treated equivalently.
I say "almost" because I did hand-edit the coccinelle output
to fix up a few style violations (it mostly keeps the
original formatting, but sometimes unwraps long lines).

Any changes to the output index should be (confusingly) marked in the
source index with invalidate_ce_path(). This is used to make sure we
still have valid untracked cache and cache-tree extensions in the end.
We do a pretty good job of invalidating except in two places.
verify_clean_subdirectory() is part of verify_absent() and
verify_absent_sparse(). The former is usually called by merged_entry()
or directly in threeway_merge(). The latter is obviously used by
sparse checkout.
In these three call sites, only merged_entry() follows up with
invalidate_ce_path(). The other two don't, but they should not trigger
this ce removal because this is about D/F conflicts [1]. But let's be
safe and invalidate_ce_path() here as well.
The second place is keep_entry() which is also used by threeway_merge()
to keep higher stage entries. In order to reuse cache-tree we need to
invalidate these paths as well. It's not a problem in the past because
whenever a higher stage entry is present, cache-tree will not be
created [2]. Now we salvage cache-tree even when higher stage entries
are present, we need more invalidation.
[1] c81935348b (Fix switching to a branch with D/F when current branch
has file D. - 2007-03-15)
[2] This is probably too strict. We should be able to create and save
cache-tree for the directories that do not have conflict entries
in cache_tree_update(). And this becomes more important when
cache-tree plays bigger role in terms of performance.

We do n-way merge by walking the source index and n trees at the same
time and add merge results to a new temporary index called o->result.
The merge result for any given path could be either
- keep_entry(): same old index entry in o->src_index is reused
- merged_entry(): either a new entry is added, or an existing one updated
- deleted_entry(): one entry from o->src_index is removed
For some reason [1] we keep making sure that the source index's
cache-tree is still valid if used by o->result: for all those
merged/deleted entries, we invalidate the same path in o->src_index,
so only cache-trees covering the "keep_entry" parts remain good.
Because of this, the cache-tree from o->src_index can be perfectly
reused in o->result. And in fact we already rely on this logic to
reuse untracked cache in edf3b90553 (unpack-trees: preserve index
extensions - 2017-05-08). Move the cache-tree to o->result before
doing cache_tree_update() to reduce hashing cost.
Since cache_tree_update() has risen up as one of the most expensive

In order to merge one or many trees with the index, unpack-trees code
walks multiple trees in parallel with the index and performs n-way
merge. If we find out at start of a directory that all trees are the
same (by comparing OID) and cache-tree happens to be available for
that directory as well, we could avoid walking the trees because we
already know what these trees contain: it's flattened in what's called
"the index".
The upside is of course a lot less I/O since we can potentially skip
lots of trees (think subtrees). We also save CPU because we don't have
to inflate and apply the deltas. The downside is of course more
fragile code since the logic in some functions are now duplicated
elsewhere.

This command calls unpack_trees() twice, the first time on 2way merge
and the second 1way merge. In both times, "unpack trees" time is
reduced to one third. Overall time reduction is not that impressive of
course because index operations take a big chunk. And there's that
repair cache-tree line.
PS. A note about cache-tree invalidation and the use of it in this
code.
We do invalidate cache-tree in _source_ index when we add new entries
to the (temporary) "result" index. But we also use the cache-tree from
source index in this optimization. Does this mean we end up having no
cache-tree in the source index to activate this optimization?
The answer is twisted: the order of finding a good cache-tree and
invalidating it matters. In this case we check for a good cache-tree
first in all_trees_same_as_cache_tree(), then we start to merge things
and potentially invalidate that same cache-tree in the process. Since
cache-tree invalidation happens after the optimization kicks in, we're
still good. But we may lose that cache-tree at the very first
call_unpack_fn() call in traverse_by_cache_tree().

Paths that only differ in case work fine in a case-sensitive

you'll get problems. The first thing to notice is "git status" will
never be clean with no indication what exactly is "dirty".
This patch helps the situation a bit by pointing out the problem at
clone time. Even though this patch talks about case sensitivity, the
patch makes no assumption about folding rules by the filesystem. It
simply observes that if an entry has been already checked out at clone
time when we're about to write a new path, some folding rules are
behind this.
In the case that we can't rely on filesystem (via inode number) to do
this check, fall back to fspathcmp() which is not perfect but should
not give false positives.

Both functions that are updated in this commit are called by
verify_absent(), which is part of the "unpack-trees" operation that is
supposed to work on any index file specified by the caller. Thanks to
Brandon [1] [2], an implicit dependency on the_index is exposed. This
commit fixes it.
In both functions, it makes sense to use src_index to check for
exclusion because it's almost unchanged and should give us the same
outcome as if running the exclude check before the unpack.
It's "almost unchanged" because we do invalidate cache-tree and
untracked cache in the source index. But this should not affect how
exclude machinery uses the index: to see if a file is tracked, and to
read a blob from the index instead of worktree if it's marked
skip-worktree (i.e. it's not available in worktree)

Update the code to use "istate" argument that's originally from

you can see that this function works on two separate indexes:
o->src_index and o->result. The second mark_new_skip_worktree() so far

When reading large indexes from disk, a portion of the time is
dominated in malloc() calls. This can be mitigated by allocating a
large block of memory and manage it ourselves via memory pools.
This change moves the cache entry allocation to be on top of memory
pools.
Design:
The index_state struct will gain a notion of an associated memory_pool
from which cache_entries will be allocated from. When reading in the
index from disk, we have information on the number of entries and
their size, which can guide us in deciding how large our initial
memory allocation should be. When an index is discarded, the
associated memory_pool will be discarded as well - so the lifetime of
a cache_entry is tied to the lifetime of the index_state that it was
allocated for.
In the case of a Split Index, the following rules are followed. 1st,
some terminology is defined:
Terminology:
- 'the_index': represents the logical view of the index
- 'split_index': represents the "base" cache entries. Read from the
split index file.
'the_index' can reference a single split_index, as well as
cache_entries from the split_index. `the_index` will be discarded
before the `split_index` is. This means that when we are allocating
cache_entries in the presence of a split index, we need to allocate
the entries from the `split_index`'s memory pool. This allows us to
follow the pattern that `the_index` can reference cache_entries from
the `split_index`, and that the cache_entries will not be freed while
they are still being referenced.
Managing transient cache_entry structs:
Cache entries are usually allocated for an index, but this is not always
the case. Cache entries are sometimes allocated because this is the
type that the existing checkout_entry function works with. Because of
this, the existing code needs to handle cache entries associated with an
index / memory pool, and those that only exist transiently. Several
strategies were contemplated around how to handle this:
Chosen approach:
An extra field was added to the cache_entry type to track whether the
cache_entry was allocated from a memory pool or not. This is currently
an int field, as there are no more available bits in the existing
ce_flags bit field. If / when more bits are needed, this new field can
be turned into a proper bit field.
Alternatives:
1) Do not include any information about how the cache_entry was
allocated. Calling code would be responsible for tracking whether the
cache_entry needed to be freed or not.
Pro: No extra memory overhead to track this state
Con: Extra complexity in callers to handle this correctly.
The extra complexity and burden to not regress this behavior in the
future was more than we wanted.
2) cache_entry would gain knowledge about which mem_pool allocated it
Pro: Could (potentially) do extra logic to know when a mem_pool no
longer had references to any cache_entry
Con: cache_entry would grow heavier by a pointer, instead of int
We didn't see a tangible benefit to this approach
3) Do not add any extra information to a cache_entry, but when freeing a
cache entry, check if the memory exists in a region managed by existing
mem_pools.
Pro: No extra memory overhead to track state
Con: Extra computation is performed when freeing cache entries
We decided tracking and iterating over known memory pool regions was
less desirable than adding an extra field to track this stae.

It has been observed that the time spent loading an index with a large
number of entries is partly dominated by malloc() calls. This change
is in preparation for using memory pools to reduce the number of
malloc() calls made to allocate cahce entries when loading an index.
Add an API to allocate and discard cache entries, abstracting the
details of managing the memory backing the cache entries. This commit
does actually change how memory is managed - this will be done in a
later commit in the series.
This change makes the distinction between cache entries that are
associated with an index and cache entries that are not associated with
an index. A main use of cache entries is with an index, and we can
optimize the memory management around this. We still have other cases
where a cache entry is not persisted with an index, and so we need to
handle the "transient" use case as well.
To keep the congnitive overhead of managing the cache entries, there
will only be a single discard function. This means there must be enough
information kept with the cache entry so that we know how to discard
them.
A summary of the main functions in the API is:
make_cache_entry: create cache entry for use in an index. Uses specified
parameters to populate cache_entry fields.
make_empty_cache_entry: Create an empty cache entry for use in an index.
Returns cache entry with empty fields.
make_transient_cache_entry: create cache entry that is not used in an
index. Uses specified parameters to populate
cache_entry fields.
make_empty_transient_cache_entry: create cache entry that is not used in
an index. Returns cache entry with
empty fields.
discard_cache_entry: A single function that knows how to discard a cache
entry regardless of how it was allocated.

The strings allocated in `setup_unpack_trees_porcelain()` are never
freed. Provide a function `clear_unpack_trees_porcelain()` to do so and
call it where we use `setup_unpack_trees_porcelain()`. The only
non-trivial user is `unpack_trees_start()`, where we should place the
new call in `unpack_trees_finish()`.
We keep the string pointers in an array, mixing pointers to static
memory and memory that we allocate on the heap. We also keep several
copies of the individual pointers. So we need to make sure that we do
not free what we must not free and that we do not double-free. Let a
separate argv_array take ownership of all the strings we create so that
we can easily free them.
Zero the whole array of string pointers to make sure that we do not
leave any dangling pointers.
Note that we only take responsibility for the memory allocated in
`setup_unpack_trees_porcelain()` and not any other members of the
`struct unpack_trees_options`.

This should make these functions easier to find and cache.h less
overwhelming to read.
In particular, this moves:
- read_object_file
- oid_object_info
- write_object_file
As a result, most of the codebase needs to #include object-store.h.
In this patch the #include is only added to files that would fail to
compile otherwise. It would be better to #include wherever
identifiers from the header are used. That can happen later
when we have better tooling for it.

In d8193743e0 (usage.c: add BUG() function, 2017-05-12), a new macro
was introduced to use for reporting bugs instead of die(). It was then
subsequently used to convert one single caller in 588a538ae5
(setup_git_env: convert die("BUG") to BUG(), 2017-05-12).
The cover letter of the patch series containing this patch
(cf 20170513032414.mfrwabt4hovujde2@sigill.intra.peff.net) is not
terribly clear why only one call site was converted, or what the plan
is for other, similar calls to die() to report bugs.
Let's just convert all remaining ones in one fell swoop.
This trick was performed by this invocation:
sed -i 's/die("BUG: /BUG("/g' $(git grep -l 'die("BUG' \*.c)

Currently, all callers of unpack_trees() set o->src_index == o->dst_index.
The code in unpack_trees() does not correctly handle them being different.
There are two separate issues:
First, there is the possibility of memory corruption. Since
unpack_trees() creates a temporary index in o->result and then discards
o->dst_index and overwrites it with o->result, in the special case that
o->src_index == o->dst_index, it is safe to just reuse o->src_index's
split_index for o->result. However, when src and dst are different,
reusing o->src_index's split_index for o->result will cause the
split_index to be shared. If either index then has entries replaced or
removed, it will result in the other index referring to free()'d memory.
Second, we can drop the index extensions. Previously, we were moving
index extensions from o->dst_index to o->result. Since o->src_index is
the one that will have the necessary extensions (o->dst_index is likely to
be a new index temporary index created to store the results), we should be
moving the index extensions from there.

The topic appears to inflict severe regression in renaming merges,

We do not yet know which exact change in the topic was wrong, but in
the meantime, let's play it safe and revert it out of 'master'

read_directory() code ignores all paths named ".git" even if it's not
a valid git repository. See treat_path() for details. Since ".git" is
basically invisible to read_directory(), when we are asked to
invalidate a path that contains ".git", we can safely ignore it
because the slow path would not consider it anyway.
This helps when fsmonitor is used and we have a real ".git" repo at
worktree top. Occasionally .git/index will be updated and if the
fsmonitor hook does not filter it, untracked cache is asked to
invalidate the path ".git/index".
Without this patch, we invalidate the root directory unncessarily,
which:
- makes read_directory() fall back to slow path for root directory
(slower)
- makes the index dirty (because UNTR extension is updated). Depending
on the index size, writing it down could also be slow.
A note about the new "safe_path" knob. Since this new check could be
relatively expensive, avoid it when we know it's not needed. If the
path comes from the index, it can't contain ".git". If it does
contain, we may be screwed up at many more levels, not just this one.

When running checkout, first prefetch all blobs that are to be updated
but are missing. This means that only one pack is downloaded during such
operations, instead of one per missing blob.
This operates only on the blob level - if a repository has a missing
tree, they are still fetched one at a time.
This does not use the delayed checkout mechanism introduced in commit
2841e8f ("convert: add "status=delayed" to filter process protocol",
2017-06-30) due to significant conceptual differences - in particular,
for partial clones, we already know what needs to be fetched based on
the contents of the local repo alone, whereas for status=delayed, it is
the filter process that tells us what needs to be checked in the end.

When the index is read from disk, the fsmonitor index extension is used
to flag the last known potentially dirty index entries. The registered
core.fsmonitor command is called with the time the index was last
updated and returns the list of files changed since that time. This list
is used to flag any additional dirty cache entries and untracked cache
directories.
We can then use this valid state to speed up preload_index(),
ie_match_stat(), and refresh_cache_ent() as they do not need to lstat()
files to detect potential changes for those entries marked
CE_FSMONITOR_VALID.
In addition, if the untracked cache is turned on valid_cached_dir() can
skip checking directories for new or changed files as fsmonitor will
invalidate the cache only for those directories that have been
identified as having potential changes.
To keep the CE_FSMONITOR_VALID state accurate during git operations;
when git updates a cache entry to match the current state on disk,
it will now set the CE_FSMONITOR_VALID bit.
Inversely, anytime git changes a cache entry, the CE_FSMONITOR_VALID bit
is cleared and the corresponding untracked cache directory is marked
invalid.
