Running `git` commands inside command substitutions like
test "$(git rev-parse A)" = "$(git rev-parse B)"
can hide failures from the `git` invocations and provide little
diagnostic information when `test` fails.
Use `test_cmp` when comparing against a stored expected value so
mismatches show both expected and actual output. Use `test_cmp_rev`
when comparing two revisions. These helpers produce clearer failure
output, making it easier to understand what went wrong.

The past few commits fixed some cases where we leak memory allocated by
mmap(). Building with SANITIZE=leak doesn't detect these because it
covers only heap buffers allocated by malloc().
But if we build with NO_MMAP, our compat mmap() implementation will
allocate a heap buffer and pread() into it. And thus Lsan will detect
these leaks for free.
Using NO_MMAP is less performant, of course, since we have to use extra
memory and read in the whole file, rather than faulting in pages from
disk. But LSan builds are already slow, and this doesn't make them
measurably worse. Getting extra coverage for our leak-checking is worth
it.

We mmap() a loose object file, storing the result in the local variable
"mapped", which is eventually assigned into our stream struct as
"st.mapped". If we hit an error, we jump to an error label which does:
munmap(st.mapped, st.mapsize);
to clean up. But this is wrong; we don't assign st.mapped until the end
of the function, after all of the "goto error" jumps. So this munmap()
is never cleaning up anything (st.mapped is always NULL, because we
initialize the struct with calloc).
Instead, we should feed the local variable to munmap().
This leak is due to 595296e124 (streaming: allocate stream inside the
backend-specific logic, 2025-11-23), which introduced the local
variable. Before that, we assigned the mmap result directly into
st.mapped. It was probably switched there so that we do not have to
allocate/free the struct when the map operation fails (e.g., because we
don't have the loose object). Before that commit, the struct was passed
in from the caller, so there was no allocation at all.
You can see the leak in the test suite by building with:
make SANITIZE=leak NO_MMAP=1 CC=clang
and running t1060. We need NO_MMAP so that the mmap() is backed by an
actual malloc(), which allows LSan to detect it. And the leak seems not
to be detected when compiling with gcc, probably due to some internal
compiler decisions about how the stack memory is written.

Before submitting patches on the mailing list, it is often a good idea
to check for previous related discussions or if similar work is already
in progress. This enables better coordination amongst contributors and
could avoid duplicating work.
Additionally, it is often recommended to give reviewers some time to
reply to a patch series before sending new versions. This helps collect
broader feedback and reduces unnecessary churn from rapid rerolls.
Document this guidance in "Documentation/SubmittingPatches" accordingly.

The usual entry point for loading the pack revindex is the
load_pack_revindex() function. It returns immediately if the packed_git
has a non-NULL revindex or revindex data field (representing an
in-memory or mmap'd .rev file, respectively), since the data is already
loaded.
But in 5a6072f631 (fsck: validate .rev file header, 2023-04-17) the fsck
code path switched to calling load_pack_revindex_from_disk() directly,
since it wants to check the on-disk data (if there is any). But that
function does _not_ check to see if the data has already been loaded; it
just maps the file, overwriting the revindex_map pointer (and pointing
revindex_data inside that map). And in that case we've leaked the mmap()
pointed to by revindex_map (if it was non-NULL).
This usually doesn't happen, since fsck wouldn't need to load the
revindex for any reason before we get to these checks. But there are
some cases where it does. For example, is_promisor_object() runs
odb_for_each_object() with the PACK_ORDER flag, which uses the revindex.
This happens a few times in our test suite, but SANITIZE=leak doesn't
detect it because we are leaking an mmap(), not a heap-allocated buffer
from malloc(). However, if you build with NO_MMAP, then our compat mmap
will read into a heap buffer instead, and LSan will complain. This
causes failures in t5601, t0410, t5702, and t5616.
We can fix it by checking for existing revindex_data when loading from
disk. This is redundant when we're called from load_pack_revindex(), but
it's a cheap check. The alternative is to teach check_pack_rev_indexes()
in fsck to skip the load, but that seems messier; it doesn't otherwise
know about internals like revindex_map and revindex_data.

Since c6807a40dc (clone: open a shortcut for connectivity check,
2013-05-26), we may open a one-off packed_git struct to check what's in
the pack we just received. At the end of the function we throw away the
struct (rather than linking it into the repository struct as usual).
We used to leak the struct until dd4143e7bf (connected.c: free the
"struct packed_git", 2022-11-08), which calls free(). But that's not
sufficient; inside the struct we'll have mmap'd the pack idx data from
disk, which needs an munmap() call.
Building with SANITIZE=leak doesn't detect this, because we are leaking
our own mmap(), and it only finds heap allocations from malloc(). But if
we use our compat mmap implementation like this:
make NO_MMAP=MapsBecomeMallocs SANITIZE=leak
then LSan will notice the leak, because now it's a regular heap buffer
allocated by malloc().
We can fix it by calling close_pack(), which will free any associated
memory. Note that we need to check for NULL ourselves; unlike free(), it
is not safe to pass a NULL pointer to close_pack().

In check_connected(), if the transport tells us we got a single packfile
that has already been verified as self-contained and connected, then we
can skip checking connectivity for any tips that are mentioned in that
pack. This goes back to c6807a40dc (clone: open a shortcut for
connectivity check, 2013-05-26).
We don't need to open that pack until we are about to start sending oids
to our child rev-list process, since that's when we check whether they
are in the self-contained pack. Let's push the opening of that pack
further down in the function. That saves us from having to clean it up
when we leave the function early (and by the time have opened the
rev-list process, we never leave the function early, since we have to
clean up the child process).
