Building our "gitweb" interface is optional in our Makefile and in Meson
and not wired up at all with CMake, but disabling it causes a couple of
tests in the t950* range that pull in "t/lib-gitweb.sh". This is because
the test library knows to execute gitweb-tests based on whether or not
Perl is available, but we may have Perl available and still end up not
building gitweb e.g. with `make test NO_GITWEB=YesPlease`.
Fix this issue by wiring up a new "NO_GITWEB" build option so that we
can skip these tests in case gitweb is not built.
Note that this new build option requires us to move the configuration of
GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS to a later point in our Meson build instructions. But
as that file is only consumed by our tests at runtime this change does
not cause any issues.

Replace `test -f` and `test ! -f` with `test_path_is_file` and
`test_path_is_missing` for better debuggability.
While `test -f` ensures that the file exists and is a regular file,
`test_path_is_file` provides clearer error messages on failure.
On the other hand, `test ! -f` checks either the absence of a regular
file or the presence of any other filesystem object, but looking at
them in the test individually, all of them should've said `test ! -e`,
i.e. "there shouldn't be anything at given path on filesystem."
Replace these cases with `test_path_is_missing` for better
debuggability.

In the preceding commits we have fixed a couple of issues when
allocating zero-sized objects. These issues were masked by
implementation-defined behaviour. Quoting malloc(3p):
If size is 0, either:
* A null pointer shall be returned and errno may be set to an
implementation-defined value, or
* A pointer to the allocated space shall be returned. The
application shall ensure that the pointer is not used to access an
object.
So it is perfectly valid that implementations of this function may or
may not return a NULL pointer in such a case.
Adapt both `reftable_malloc()` and `reftable_realloc()` so that they
return NULL pointers on zero-sized allocations. This should remove any
implementation-defined behaviour in our allocators and thus allows us to
detect such platform-specific issues more easily going forward.

Similar as the preceding commit, we may try to do a zero-sized
allocation when reloading a reftable stack that ain't got any tables.
It is implementation-defined whether malloc(3p) returns a NULL pointer
in that case or a zero-sized object. In case it does return a NULL
pointer though it causes us to think we have run into an out-of-memory
situation, and thus we return an error.
Fix this by only allocating arrays when they have at least one entry.

It was reported [1] that Git started to fail with an out-of-memory error
when initializing repositories with the reftable backend on NonStop
platforms. A bisect led to 802c0646ac (reftable/merged: handle
allocation failures in `merged_table_init_iter()`, 2024-10-02), which
changed how we allocate memory when initializing a merged table.
The root cause of this seems to be that NonStop returns a `NULL` pointer
when doing a zero-sized allocation. This would've already happened
before the above change, but we never noticed because we did not check
the result. Now we do notice and thus return an out-of-memory error to
the caller.
Fix the issue by skipping the allocation altogether in case there are no
readers.

In order to compact tables we need at least two tables. Bail out early
from `reftable_stack_auto_compact()` in case we have less than two
tables.
In the original, `stack_table_sizes_for_compaction()` yields an array
that has the same length as the number of tables. This array is then
passed on to `suggest_compaction_segment()`, which returns an empty
segment in case we have less than two tables. The segment is then passed
to `segment_size()`, which will return `0` because both start and end of
the segment are `0`. And because we only call `stack_compact_range()` in
case we have a positive segment size we don't perform auto-compaction at
all. Consequently, this change does not result in a user-visible change
in behaviour when called with a single table.
But when called with no tables this protects us against a potential
out-of-memory error: `stack_table_sizes_for_compaction()` would try to
allocate a zero-byte object when there aren't any tables, and that may
lead to a `NULL` pointer on some platforms like NonStop which causes us
to bail out with an out-of-memory error.

Asciidoctor has generated based on the mtime of the source file.
Compared to pre-a38edab7c8, we now end up injecting this also in the

After the recent a38edab7c8 (Makefile: generate doc versions via
GIT-VERSION-GEN, 2024-12-06), building with Asciidoctor results in
manpages where the headers no longer contain "Git Manual" and the
footers no longer identify the built Git version.
Before a38edab7c8, we used to just provide a few attributes to
Asciidoctor (and asciidoc). Commit 7a30134358 (asciidoctor-extensions:
provide `<refmiscinfo/>`, 2019-09-16) noted that older versions of
Asciidoctor didn't propagate those attributes into the built XML files,
so we started injecting them ourselves from this script. With newer
versions of Asciidoctor, we'd end up with some harmless duplication
among the tags in the final XML.
Post-a38edab7c8, we don't provide these attributes and Asciidoctor
inserts empty-ish values. After our additions from 7a30134358, we get
<refmiscinfo class="source"> </refmiscinfo>
<refmiscinfo class="manual"> </refmiscinfo>
<refmiscinfo class="source">2.47.1.[...]</refmiscinfo>
<refmiscinfo class="manual">Git Manual</refmiscinfo>
When these are handled, it appears to be first come first served,
meaning that our additions have no effect and we regress as described in
the first paragraph.
Remove existing "source" or "manual" <refmiscinfo/> tags before adding
ours. I considered removing all <refmiscinfo/> to get a nice clean
slate, instead of just those two that we want to replace to be a bit
more precise. I opted for the latter. Maybe one day, Asciidoctor learns
to insert something useful there which `xmlto` can pick up and make good
use of -- let's not interfere.

GIT-VERSION-GEN tries to derive the version that Git is being built from
via multiple different sources in the following order:
1. A file called "version" in the source tree's root directory, if it
exists.
2. The current commit in case Git is built from a Git repository.
3. Otherwise, we use a fallback version stored in a variable which is
bumped whenever a new Git version is getting tagged.
It used to be possible to override the version by overriding the
`GIT_VERSION` Makefile variable (e.g. `make GIT_VERSION=foo`). This
worked somewhat by chance, only: `GIT-VERSION-GEN` would write the
actual Git version into `GIT-VERSION-FILE`, not the overridden value,
but when including the file into our Makefile we would not override the
`GIT_VERSION` variable because it has already been set by the user. And
because our Makefile used the variable to propagate the version to our
build tools instead of using `GIT-VERSION-FILE` the resulting build
artifacts used the overridden version.
But that subtle mechanism broke with 4838deab65 (Makefile: refactor
GIT-VERSION-GEN to be reusable, 2024-12-06) and subsequent commits
because the version information is not propagated via the Makefile
variable anymore, but instead via the files that `GIT-VERSION-GEN`
started to write. And as the script never knew about the `GIT_VERSION`
environment variable in the first place it uses one of the values listed
above instead of the overridden value.
Fix this issue by making `GIT-VERSION-GEN` handle the case where
`GIT_VERSION` has been set via the environment.
Note that this requires us to introduce a new GIT_VERSION_OVERRIDE
variable that stores a potential user-provided value, either via the
environment or via "config.mak". Ideally we wouldn't need it and could
just continue to use GIT_VERSION for this. But unfortunately, Makefiles
will first include all sub-Makefiles before figuring out whether it
needs to re-make any of them [1]. Consequently, if there already is a
GIT-VERSION-FILE, we would have slurped in its value of GIT_VERSION
before we call GIT-VERSION-GEN, and because GIT-VERSION-GEN now uses
that value as an override it would mean that the first generated value
for GIT_VERSION will remain unchanged.
Furthermore we have to move the include for "GIT-VERSION-FILE" after the
includes for "config.mak" and related so that GIT_VERSION_OVERRIDE can
be set to the value provided by "config.mak".

Some of the callsites of GIT-VERSION-GEN generate the target file with a

are different compared to the old contents. This allows us to avoid a
needless rebuild by not updating timestamps of the target file when its
contents will remain unchanged anyway.
In fact though, this exact logic is already handled in GIT-VERSION-GEN,
so doing this manually is pointless. This is a leftover from an earlier

It is possible to configure a Git build without Perl when disabling both

The alloc and nr fields of a prio-queue tell us how much memory is
allocated and used in the array. So the natural type for them is size_t,
which prevents overflow on 64-bit systems where "int" is still 32 bits.
This is unlikely to happen in practice, as we typically use it for
storing commits, and having 2^31 of those is rather a lot. But it's good
to keep our generic data structures as flexible as possible. And as we
start to enforce -Wsign-compare, it means that callers need to use
"int", too, and the problem proliferates. Let's fix it at the source.
The changes here can be put into a few groups:
1. Changing the alloc/nr fields in the struct to size_t. This requires
swapping out int for size_t in negotiator/skipping.c, as well as
in prio_queue_get(), because those all iterate over the array.
Building with -Wsign-compare complains about these.
2. Other code that assigns or passes around indexes into the array
(e.g., the swap() and compare() functions) won't trigger
-Wsign-compare because we are simply truncating the values. These
are caught by -Wconversion, but I've adjusted them here to
future-proof us.
3. In prio_queue_reverse() we compute "queue->nr - 1" without checking
if anything is in the queue, which underflows now that nr is
unsigned. We can fix that by returning early when the queue is
empty (there is nothing to reverse).
4. The insertion_ctr variable is currently unsigned, but can likewise
grow (it is actually worse, because adding and removing an element
many times will keep increasing the counter, even though "nr" does
not). I've bumped that to size_t here, as well.
But -Wconversion notes that computing the "cmp" result by
subtracting the counters and assigning to "int" is a potential
problem. And that's true even before this patch, since we use an
unsigned counter (imagine comparing "2^32-1" and "0", which should
be a high positive value, but instead is "-1" as a signed int).
Since we only care about the sign (and not the magnitude) of the
result, we could fix this by swapping out the subtraction for a
ternary comparison. Probably the performance impact would be
negligible, since we just called into a custom compare function and
branched on its result anyway. But it's easy enough to do a
branchless version by subtracting the comparison results.
