The 'git receive-pack' command has been updated to use a new ODB
transaction interface for writing incoming packfiles, making it more
backend-agnostic.
* jt/receive-pack-pluggable-writes:
odb/transaction: add transaction interface to write packfiles
odb: return temporary ODB source when set
builtin/receive-pack: explicitly pass packfile fd
builtin/receive-pack: report unpack errors via strbuf

builtin/receive-pack: pass shallow file explicitly
odb/transaction: add transaction finalize interface

The object database layer has been simplified by eagerly loading
alternate object directories upon initialization, instead of
deferring it to the first object lookup. This eliminates the need
for scattered lazy-loading calls throughout the codebase and paves
the way for integrating alternates with the pluggable backends.

odb: drop `alternates_db` field
odb: drop `loaded_alternates` field
odb: eagerly initialize alternates
odb: decouple source path comparisons from `the_repository`
setup: create ref and object databases after config is written
The object database (odb) API has been refactored to distinguish
between missing objects and corrupt ones by returning more
descriptive error statuses. Both the packed and loose backends now
faithfully propagate error details using a generic strbuf error
mechanism, removing backend-specific leakage from central lookup
paths.
* ps/odb-generic-corrupt-objects:
odb: handle `OBJECT_INFO_DIE_IF_CORRUPT` generically
odb/source: allow `read_object_info()` to bubble up error messages
odb/source: let callers discern missing and corrupt objects
odb/source: introduce error status when reading objects
odb/source-packed: flag known-bad objects as corrupt and not missing
The 'struct odb_read_stream' and 'struct odb_write_stream'
structures have been consolidated into a single unified 'struct
odb_stream' structure, simplifying object database streaming APIs
and enabling streaming of arbitrary object types.
* ps/odb-streams:
odb/streaming: unify function names to create new streams
odb/streaming: rename `struct input_zstream_data`
odb/streaming: rename `struct read_object_fd_data`
odb/streaming: consolidate read and write streams
odb/streaming: rename `struct odb_read_stream`

odb/streaming: drop `is_finished` field
odb/streaming: track write stream size in the structure
When invoked, `odb_set_temporary_primary_source()` installs a temporary
object directory as the new primary ODB source. A caller that wants to
operate on the ODB source of the open transaction must assume that it is
the first entry in the ODB source list which is a bit awkward and
fragile.
Instead, return the newly installed source directly and report the
previous primary source via a new `prev_source` out parameter. Propagate
the installed source through `tmp_objdir_replace_primary_odb()` and
start storing it in the "files" ODB transaction so a subsequent commit
can easily access it without relying on the ODB source list ordering.

The creation of the on-disk data structures for the object database

When a lookup with `OBJECT_INFO_DIE_IF_CORRUPT` fails we want to die in
case the object exists, but cannot be read. This flag is handled in two
different spots right now:
- `do_oid_object_info_extended()` calls `has_packed_and_bad()` to
check whether the object is known to be corrupt in any packfile.
This function reaches into the internals of the packed source and
thus breaks the abstraction provided by our object sources.
- The loose source handles the flag itself and dies directly in
`read_object_info_from_path()`, which means that we die even in
cases where another source may still have a good copy of the
object.
Besides being inconsistent, it also ties us to the specific backend used
by the database sources because `has_packed_and_bad()` assumes that they
use the "files" backend. Any other backend will instead cause us to die
when calling `odb_source_files_downcast()`, even if the object was
simply nonexistent.
In the preceding commits we've carved out the infrastructure to make
this mechanism fully generic. On the one hand, all backends now tell us
whether the object is missing or corrupt via their return values. And
on the other hand, they have been taught to provide a readable error
message to the caller.
Adapt `do_oid_object_info_extended()` to use those new mechanisms. This
means that we won't die immediately anymore when a loose object is
corrupt, and we properly handle backends other than the "files" backend.

When reading an object fails even though it exists, the sources know
best what exactly went wrong and where the corrupt object is located.
This information is lost though when bubbling up the error to the object
database layer, which forces that layer to reconstruct it after the
fact. This is exactly what `do_oid_object_info_extended()` does via
`has_packed_and_bad()`, but that function only really knows to handle
the "files" backend by reaching into its internals.
Introduce a new `errmsg` parameter for the `read_object_info()` callback
that sources are expected to populate with a human-readable message in
case reading the object has failed. Adapt the packed and loose sources
to populate the buffer with the messages that we ultimately want to
surface to the user.
For now, all callers are adapted to pass a `NULL` pointer. We will add a
user of this new infrastructure in a subsequent commit.

The `read_object_info()` callback of `struct odb_source` is documented
to return a negative error code in case reading the object has failed,
and zero otherwise. This is overly broad though, as there are two very
different kinds of failures:
- The object may not exist in the source at all.
- The object exists, but reading it has failed, for example because
its on-disk state is corrupt.
This distinction matters to callers: when an object is corrupt in one
source we may still find a good copy of it in another source, so we may
still be able to proceed with a given operation.
The "packed" source already distinguishes these cases by returning a
positive value for missing objects and a negative value in case reading
the object has failed. But it is the only such source that distinguishes
those cases, and the returned value is translated into a negative error
code by the "files" backend anyway.
Introduce a new error status that is specific to reading objects and
adapt the infrastructure to return it. For now, we only discern
successful reads from generic failures, which mostly matches the status
quo. In subsequent commits though we're about to add an error that
explicitly tells the caller that an object does not exist.
Note that we keep the "packed" backend as-is with its positive return
code for missing objects. This will be fixed in the next commit.

When creating the object database we initialize the main object database
source, but we don't yet initialize its alternates. Instead, we have
many calls to `odb_prepare_alternates()` cluttered around the code base
whenever we are about to iterate through the sources.
This lazy loading doesn't really add much value: the moment where we
read any object we _have_ to load the alternates anyway. So given that
most of our commands would access the object database this optimization
is not really buying us much in the first place. Quite on the contrary,
it makes the code harder to understand and is a potential source of bugs
in case any callsite forgot to prepare alternates before we iterate
through the sources.
Historically though there was a reason why we deferred lazy-loading: it
may happen that the repository has "core.ignoreCase" configured, and we
use that to deduplicate the list of alternates in case we had the same
alternate configured multiple times, but with different casing. We used
to initialize the object database before we had fully configured the
owning repository though, and consequently we couldn't access that
configuration yet. This has changed in the preceding commit though where
we started to parse "core.ignoreCase" manually.
Eagerly prepare alternates both when creating the object database and
when flushing its caches. Drop the now-unneeded calls to prepare the
alternates that are scattered across the code base.

When registering alternates we deduplicate object database sources by
their path so that the same source won't be added twice. Ever since
cf2dc1c238 (speed up alt_odb_usable() with many alternates, 2021-07-07)
this duplicate check is backed by a map keyed by the source's path,
using `fspathhash()` and `fspatheq()` as hash and equality functions,
respectively.
These functions are problematic in this context for two reasons:
- They implicitly depend on `the_repository` instead of the
repository that owns the object database.
- They derive case-sensitivity from `repo_ignore_case()`, which
returns a default value in case the repository's configuration has
not been parsed yet. Object database sources may be registered
before that is the case, so the answer may flip depending on when a
source gets registered.
Fix this by making the comparison self-contained in the object
database. Instead of using `fspathhash()` and `fspatheq()` we resolve
"core.ignoreCase" manually and then use the correct comparison function
based on the result. This requires us to migrate to a `struct hashmap`,
as the khash interface does not give us the ability to pass an arbitrary
payload to these functions, and hence we'd have to use global state to
decide which of those to use.
Note that we can unconditionally use `strihash()` to compute entry
hashes regardless of case sensitivity: a hash function only needs to
guarantee that equal keys have equal hashes, and a case-insensitive
hash satisfies this requirement for both case-sensitive and
case-insensitive equality.
Overall it's quite debatable whether all of this complexity really is
worth it, out of two reasons:
- We could linearly search through all sources to find duplicates. But
the mentioned commit cares about cases with thousands of alternates,
and a linear search would of course regress performance quite a bit.
This doesn't really feel like a reasonable case to care about, but I
don't feel comfortable regressing it anyway.
- It's dubious whether we should handle "core.ignoreCase" in the first
place. The downside would be that we might add the same alternate
multiple times with different casing. But this is an edge case, and
it's not even fully fixed because we don't resolve symlinks or
mountpoints, either.
So for now, keep this infrastructure in-place while removing the global
dependency on `the_repository`. We may want to revisit this in the
future though.

When initializing a repository's object database we have to respect the
GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY and GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_DIRECTORIES environment
variables, which can be set by the user to override the default location
of where we write objects to and read objects from.
This is handled in `apply_repository_format()`, which is fine. But in a
subsequent commit we'll have to defer constructing the object database
to a later point in some cases, and that will require a second site
where we call `odb_new()`. And of course, that second site would have to
handle those environment variables, as well.
It would be somewhat awkward to duplicate the logic though. But there's
a better alternative: instead of handling this logic in "setup.c", we
can easily handle environment variables in `odb_new()` itself. This
ensures that object database creation is neatly self-contained, and we
don't have to duplicate any of the logic.
Another benefit is that in a future patch series we plan to move
handling of alternates into the backends themselves [1], and that will
require us to also handle those environment variables in the "files"
backend itself. So moving the logic into the ODB level already gets us
one step closer to that goal.
Refactor the logic accordingly.

pruning, has been moved out of the command implementation and into the

The `struct odb_read_stream` and `struct odb_write_stream` both provide
the same functionality: they allow a caller to read object data from an
arbitrary source. Historically, the only difference was that the read
stream was used to read data out of the object database, whereas the
write stream was used to write data into the object database, but the
interfaces were mostly the same.
Over the preceding commits we have refactored the write stream to have
almost exactly the same interface as the read stream. With these
refactorings we can now easily merge those two streams into a single
interface that's used for both use cases.
While most of the changes are mechanical, there are two sites that need
special mention:
- "builtin/unpack-objects.c" creates a write stream from compressed
object data.
- "odb/streaming.c" creates a write stream from a file descriptor.
Adapting these sites to yield the new stream type requires a couple more
changes. Most importantly, instead of embedding the pointer to the data
in `struct odb_write_stream`, we now allocate a structure that wraps the
new `struct odb_stream` base. Other than that though, the changes are
rather straight forward.
Some of the structures and functions are now somewhat misnamed. These

When passing around a `struct odb_write_stream` we typically also have

cannot write the header without that information.
Move this information into the stream itself so that it becomes self-
describing. In addition to that, this also brings the `struct

The function `force_object_loose()` is used to loosen packed objects
before repacking. It passes the pack's mtime along so that the newly
written loose object inherits the same timestamp. This matters for
object pruning, which uses the mtime to determine whether an object is
old enough to be pruned.
In a subsequent commit, `force_object_loose()` will be converted to use
the generic `odb_source_write_object()` interface instead of calling
`write_loose_object()` directly. But the generic interface doesn't yet
support setting a specific mtime, which makes it impossible to implement
the logic as of now.
Prepare for the change by introducing a new `mtime` parameter to this
function that we plumb through the stack. If set, the backends are

are expected to use the current time instead.

Before writing a new loose object we first check whether the object

- Every backend would have to reimplement this check, which feels
somewhat pointless.
- It is not possible to easily write an object into a source in case
the same object already exists in another source.

Repositories can have a compatibility hash configured, which means that
such a repository is expected to maintain a mapping between canonical

responsibility of the object database sources, where we either store
them as part of the loose objects map or in packfile indices v3 (once we
gain support for this feature).
But besides storing these compatibility hashes, the sources are also
responsible for generating the compatibility hash in the first place.
This is somewhat unnecessary though, as the compatibility hash should be
computed the same no matter which source is being used. The consequence
is that we need to duplicate this functionality across the different
backends, which does not make a lot of sense.

- The backend-tagged union `u` exposing backend-specific details
(currently only the packed-source case, which records the owning
pack, offset and packed object type).
The union is populated unconditionally, even though most callers don't
care about provenance at all.
Split the backend-specific union out into a new public type, `struct
object_info_source`, and make the object info structure carry it via
just another opt-in request pointer. As with all the other requestable
information, callers that need source info allocate a `struct
object_info_source` on the stack and point `sourcep` at it; callers that
don't care about it simply leave the field as a `NULL` pointer. Adapt
callers accordingly.
Note that the `whence` enum is strictly-speaking also backend-specific

The `reprepare()` callback function can be used to flush caches of a

when a concurrent process may have written new objects. Ultimately, this

1. We drop any caches.
2. We prepare the source.
We have one callsite in git-grep(1) though that really only want to do
(2). This is done by reaching into the "files" backend directly and then
calling `odb_source_packed_prepare()`, which of course may not work with
alternate backends.
We could in theory just call `reprepare()` here, and that would likely
not have any significant downside. But this would certainly feel like a
code smell.

Next to our typical object database sources, each object database also
has an implicit source of "cached" objects. These cached objects only
exist in memory and some use cases:
- They contain evergreen objects that we expect to always exist, like
for example the empty tree.
- They can be used to store temporary objects that we don't want to
persist to disk, which is used by git-blame(1) to create a fake
worktree commit.
Overall, their use is somewhat restricted though. For example, we don't
provide the ability to use it as a temporary object database source that
allows the user to write objects, but discard them after Git exists. So
while these cached objects behave almost like a source, they aren't used
as one.
This is about to change over the following commits, where we will turn
cached objects into a new "in-memory" source. This will allow us to use
it exactly the same as any other source by providing the same common
interface as the "files" source.
For now, the in-memory source only hosts the cached objects and doesn't

We've got a couple of functions that accept `odb_write_object()` flags,
but all of them accept the flags as an `unsigned` integer. In fact, we
don't even have an `enum` for the flags field.
Introduce this `enum` and adapt functions accordingly according to our
coding style.

We've got a couple of callsites where we pass `odb_for_each_object()`
flags, but accept an `unsigned` flags field instead of the corresponding
enum. Adapt these to accept the enum type instead.

Introduce a new generic `odb_find_abbrev_len()` function as well as
source-specific callback functions. This makes the logic to compute the
required prefix length to make a given object unique fully pluggable.

The `odb_for_each_object()` function only accepts a bitset of flags. In
a subsequent commit we'll want to change object iteration to also
support iterating over only those objects that have a specific prefix.
While we could of course add the prefix to the function signature, or
alternatively introduce a new function, both of these options don't
really seem to be that sensible.
Instead, introduce a new `struct odb_for_each_object_options` that can
be passed to a new `odb_for_each_object_ext()` function. Splice through
the options structure into the respective object database sources.

Similar to the preceding commit, introduce counting of objects on the
object database level, replacing the logic that we have in
`repo_approximate_object_count()`.
Note that the function knows to cache the object count. It's unclear
whether this cache is really required as we shouldn't have that many
cases where we count objects repeatedly. But to be on the safe side the
caching mechanism is retained, with the only excepting being that we
also have to use the passed flags as caching key.
