In 1df18a1c9a (reftable: honor core.fsync, 2024-01-23), we have added
code to fsync both newly written reftables as well as "tables.list" to
disk. But there are two code paths where "tables.list" is being written:
- When appending a new table due to a normal ref update.
- When compacting a range of tables during compaction.
We have only addressed the former code path, but do not yet sync the new
"tables.list" file in the latter. Fix this omission.
Note that we are not yet adding any tests. These tests will be added
once the "reftable" backend has been upstreamed.

We build the UNIT_TEST_BIN directory (t/unit-tests/bin) on the fly with
"mkdir -p". And so the recipe for UNIT_TEST_PROGS, which put their
output in that directory, depend on UNIT_TEST_BIN to make sure it's
there.
But using a normal dependency leads to weird outcomes, because the
timestamp of the directory is important. For example, try this:
$ make
[...builds everything...]
[now re-build one unit test]
$ touch t/unit-tests/t-ctype.c
$ make
SUBDIR templates
CC t/unit-tests/t-ctype.o
LINK t/unit-tests/bin/t-ctype
So far so good. Now running make again should build nothing. But it
doesn't!
$ make
SUBDIR templates
LINK t/unit-tests/bin/t-basic
LINK t/unit-tests/bin/t-mem-pool
LINK t/unit-tests/bin/t-strbuf
Er, what? Let's rebuild again:
$ make
SUBDIR templates
LINK t/unit-tests/bin/t-ctype
Weird. And now we ping-pong back and forth forever:
$ make
SUBDIR templates
LINK t/unit-tests/bin/t-basic
LINK t/unit-tests/bin/t-mem-pool
LINK t/unit-tests/bin/t-strbuf
$ make
SUBDIR templates
LINK t/unit-tests/bin/t-ctype
What happens is that writing t/unit-tests/bin/t-ctype updates the mtime
of the directory t/unit-tests/bin. And then on the next invocation of
make, all of those other tests are now older and so get rebuilt. And
back and forth forever.
We can fix this by making the directory as part of the build recipe for
the programs, using the template from 0b6d0bc924 (Makefiles: add and use
wildcard "mkdir -p" template, 2022-03-03).

skipping those tests that haven't set "TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK=true"

pass under "SANITIZE=leak". This is especially useful when testing a
series that fixes various memory leaks with "git rebase -x".

In 10f5c52656 (submodule: avoid auto-discovery in
prepare_submodule_repo_env(), 2016-09-01) we fixed a bug when doing a
recursive fetch with submodule in the case where the submodule is broken
due to whatever reason. The test to exercise that the fix works breaks
the submodule by deleting its `HEAD` reference, which will cause us to
not detect the directory as a Git repository.
While this is perfectly fine in theory, this way of breaking the repo
becomes problematic with the current efforts to introduce another refdb
backend into Git. The new reftable backend has a stub HEAD file that
always contains "ref: refs/heads/.invalid" so that tools continue to be
able to detect such a repository. But as the reftable backend will never
delete this file even when asked to delete `HEAD` the current way to
delete the `HEAD` reference will stop working.
Adapt the code to instead delete the objects database. Going back with
this new way to cause breakage confirms that it triggers the infinite
recursion just the same, and there are no equivalent ongoing efforts to
replace the object database with an alternate backend.

With 59c35fac54 (refs/packed-backend.c: implement jump lists to avoid
excluded pattern(s), 2023-07-10) we have implemented logic to handle
excluded refs more efficiently in the "packed" ref backend. This logic
allows us to skip emitting refs completely which we know to not be of
any interest to the caller, which can avoid quite some allocations and
object lookups.
This was wired up via a new `exclude_patterns` parameter passed to the
backend's ref iterator. The backend only needs to handle them on a best
effort basis though, and in fact we only handle it for the "packed-refs"
file, but not for loose references. Consequently, all callers must still
filter emitted refs with those exclude patterns.
The result is that handling exclude patterns is completely optional in
the ref backend, and any future backends may or may not implement it.
Let's thus mark the test for t1419 to depend on the REFFILES prereq.
An alternative would be to introduce a new prereq that tells us whether
the backend under test supports exclude patterns or not. But this does
feel a bit overblown:
- It would either map to the REFFILES prereq, in which case it feels
overengineered because the prereq is only ever relevant to t1419.
- Otherwise, it could auto-detect whether the backend supports exclude
patterns. But this could lead to silent failures in case the support
for this feature breaks at any point in time.
It should thus be good enough to just use the REFFILES prereq for now.
If future backends ever grow support for exclude patterns we can easily
add their respective prereq as another condition for this test suite to
execute.

In t1302 we exercise logic around "core.repositoryFormatVersion" and
extensions. These tests are not particularly robust against extensions
like the newly introduced "refStorage" extension as we tend to clobber
the repository's config file. We thus overwrite any extensions that were
set, which may render the repository inaccessible in case it has to be
accessed with a non-default ref storage.
Refactor the tests to be more robust:
- Check the DEFAULT_REPO_FORMAT prereq to determine the expected
repository format version. This helps to ensure that we only need to
update the prereq in a central place when new extensions are added.
Furthermore, this allows us to stop seeding the now-unneeded object
ID cache that was only used to figure out the repository version.
- Use a separate repository to rewrite ".git/config" to test
combinations of the repository format version and extensions. This
ensures that we don't break the main test repository. While we could
rewrite these tests to not overwrite preexisting extensions, it
feels cleaner like this so that we can test extensions standalone
without interference from the environment.
- Do not rewrite ".git/config" when exercising the "preciousObjects"
extension.

The t1300 test suite exercises the git-config(1) tool. To do so, the
test overwrites ".git/config" to contain custom contents in several
places with code like the following:
```
cat > .git/config <<\EOF
...
EOF
```
While this is easy enough to do, it may create problems when using a
non-default repository format because this causes us to overwrite the
repository format version as well as any potential extensions. With the
upcoming "reftable" ref backend the result is that Git would try to
access refs via the "files" backend even though the repository has been
initialized with the "reftable" backend, which will cause failures when
trying to access any refs.
Ideally, we would rewrite the whole test suite to not depend on state
written by previous tests, but that would result in a lot of changes in
this test suite. Instead, we only refactor tests which access the refdb
to be more robust by using their own separate repositories, which allows
us to be more careful and not discard required extensions.
Note that we also have to touch up how the CUSTOM_CONFIG_FILE gets
accessed. This environment variable contains the relative path to a
custom config file which we're setting up. But because we are now using
subrepositories, this relative path will not be found anymore because
our working directory changes. This issue is addressed by storing the
absolute path to the file in CUSTOM_CONFIG_FILE instead.

Running this:
$ touch foo bar
$ chmod +x foo
$ git -c diff.external=echo diff --ext-diff --no-index foo bar
results in a segfault. The issue is that run_diff_cmd() passes a NULL
"xfrm_msg" variable to run_external_diff(), which feeds it to
strvec_push(), causing the segfault. The bug dates back to 82fbf269b9
(run_external_diff: use an argv_array for the command line, 2014-04-19),
though it mostly only ever worked accidentally. Before then, we just
stuck the NULL pointer into a "const char **" array, so our NULL ended
up acting as an extra end-of-argv sentinel (which was OK, because it was
the last thing in the array).
Curiously, though, this is only a problem with --no-index. We set up
xfrm_msg by calling fill_metainfo(). This result may be empty, or may
have text like "index 1234..5678\n", "rename from foo\nrename from
bar\n", etc. In run_external_diff(), we only look at xfrm_msg if the
"other" variable is not NULL. That variable is set when the paths of the
two sides of the diff pair aren't the same (in which case the
destination path becomes "other"). So normally it would kick in only for
a rename, in which case xfrm_msg should not be NULL (it would have the
rename information in it).
But with a "--no-index" of two blobs, we of course have two different
pathnames, and thus end up with a non-NULL "other" filename (which is
always just a repeat of the file2-name), but possibly a NULL xfrm_msg.
So how to fix it? I have a feeling that --no-index always passing
"other" to the external diff command is probably a bug. There was no
rename, and the name is always redundant with existing information we
pass (and this may even cause us to pass a useless "xfrm_msg" that
contains an "index 1234..5678" line). So one option would be to change
that behavior. We don't seem to have ever documented the "other" or
"xfrm_msg" parameters for external diffs.
But I'm not sure what fallout we might have from changing that behavior
now. So this patch takes the less-risky option, and simply teaches
run_external_diff() to avoid passing xfrm_msg when it's NULL. That makes
it agnostic to whether "other" and "xfrm_msg" always come as a pair. It
fixes the segfault now, and if we want to change the --no-index "other"
behavior on top, it will handle that, too.
