Elijah Newren 764243bdf4 diff: avoid misleading statement about -l option
In commit 6623a528e0 (doc: clarify documentation for rename/copy
limits, 2021-07-15), the wording around rename limit options and config
variables were updated to point out that only the quadratic portion of
rename detection (or "exhaustive portion of rename/copy detection" as
used in that commit) was limited by these options, because exact rename
detection and basename-guided rename detection (which both run in time
linear in the number of files) still run before this limit is checked.

However, the short help message wasn't updated at the time; update it
too.

Siddharth Shrimali c6fed8b7a6 builtin/repack: add guards for --drop-filtered
--drop-filtered removes local promisor blobs. That is only safe when the
repository is not mid-operation and when the blobs are not actively in
use, so add two guards, both skipped for bare repositories which have
neither a worktree nor an index.

First, refuse to run while a merge, rebase, am, cherry-pick, revert, or
bisect is in progress. During these operations the working tree and
index are in an intermediate state, and rewriting packs and deleting
objects underneath a half-finished operation is unsafe.

Second, refuse to drop a blob that the current index references. Such a
blob is needed by the working tree, so dropping it would only cause the
next command that touches the worktree to lazy-fetch it straight back,
reclaiming nothing. The offending path is reported so the user can see
why the drop was refused.

Siddharth Shrimali 0c4142a25b builtin/repack: actually drop filtered promisor blobs
Make --drop-filtered remove the enumerated promisor blobs instead of
only listing them.

The drop set is computed before repack_promisor_objects() runs, and on
a real run it is passed in so the rebuilt promisor pack omits those
blobs. --drop-filtered implies -d so the old promisor packs, which
still contain the dropped blobs, are removed. Without this the blobs
would survive in the redundant packs. The existing repack machinery
performs the write-before-delete and fsync, so the drop is crash-safe.

The dropped blobs become absent locally but remain recoverable from the
promisor remote, so a later access lazy-fetches them back
transparently. --dry-run keeps its previous behavior, i.e. it lists the
candidates and changes nothing.

Siddharth Shrimali 8bb2a3f454 builtin/repack: enumerate promisor blobs for --drop-filtered
Add enumeration logic for --drop-filtered. In --dry-run mode, print
the OIDs of locally-held promisor blobs that exceed the filter
threshold, as candidates for removal.

Reading from write_filtered_pack() cannot work for partial clones.
git repack routes promisor objects through a separate path:
repack_promisor_objects() repacks them first, and the main
pack-objects run uses --exclude-promisor-objects. By the time
write_filtered_pack() runs, the promisor blobs are already consumed by
the main pack. The filtered pack is always empty on a partial clone.

Instead, walk promisor objects directly via odb_for_each_object() with
ODB_FOR_EACH_OBJECT_PROMISOR_ONLY, collecting all promisor blobs into
an oidset. The blobs exceeding the filter threshold are then selected
using list_objects_filter__filter_oidset().

Every object enumerated this way is a promisor object, so it is
recoverable from the promisor remote in the same sense as the rest of a
partial clone, as long as the remote still has it. This holds without a
separate is_promisor_object() check. A future implementation can verify
availability against the remote directly once a client-side
remote-object-info query exists.

OBJECT_INFO_SKIP_FETCH_OBJECT is passed to every object info query so
enumeration never triggers a lazy fetch.

The enumeration collects candidates into a caller-provided oidset and
--dry-run prints them. Actually removing the objects, together with the
required promisor-remote verification, is written in a later commit.

Siddharth Shrimali 85531bbf29 repack-promisor: allow excluding objects from the rebuilt promisor pack
Add a to_drop oidset parameter to repack_promisor_objects(). When it is
non-NULL, write_oid() omits those objects from the rebuilt promisor
pack. This is the mechanism --drop-filtered will use to remove promisor
blobs, i.e. rebuild the promisor pack without them.

All existing callers pass NULL, so behavior is unchanged.

Siddharth Shrimali 401c308671 list-objects-filter: add list_objects_filter__filter_oidset()
The existing filter entry point, list_objects_filter__filter_object(),
is built around the object-walk path: it expects traversal context and
provisional omit sets, and is meant to be called as objects are
visited during a walk. A caller that already has a set of OIDs in hand
and only wants to know which ones a filter would select has no usable
entry point into the filter API.

--drop-filtered is exactly such a caller: it collects promisor blobs
into an oidset and needs to know which of them exceed the filter
threshold, without performing an object walk.

Add a helper, list_objects_filter__filter_oidset(), that takes a set
of OIDs and populates an "omitted" set with those that would be
filtered out by the given filter options. Only blob:limit=N filters
are supported for now.

This helper does not actually reuse the existing filter machinery.
It reimplements the blob:limit size check directly. That machinery
is tied to the object-walk path and cannot easily be driven
from a plain oidset. A NEEDSWORK comment marks this so the helper can
later be refactored to reuse the real filter logic instead of
duplicating it.

OBJECT_INFO_SKIP_FETCH_OBJECT is passed when reading object info so
the helper never triggers a lazy fetch.

Siddharth Shrimali 1e746b00aa builtin/repack: add --drop-filtered and --dry-run options
Add two new command-line options to 'git-repack':

  --drop-filtered: intended to eventually delete objects that match
                   the filter specification. Requires --filter and -a,
                   and is incompatible with --filter-to.
  --dry-run: show which objects would be dropped without making any
             changes. Only meaningful with --drop-filtered.

Keep --dry-run as a separate option rather than folding it into
--drop-filtered (e.g. --drop-filtered=dry-run), to stay consistent with
the --dry-run option other Git commands already provide and to leave
room for it to describe other repack behavior later. A
--drop-filtered=<mode> form can still be added later if more
drop-specific modes are needed.

--drop-filtered also requires a promisor remote to be configured, since
dropping objects without a remote to fetch them back from would be
permanent data loss.

--drop-filtered is incompatible with bitmap writing: filtering breaks
the "all objects in one pack" closure that bitmaps require. Detect an
explicit -b/--write-bitmap-index on the command line with a dedicated
option callback that sets a "write_bitmaps_given" flag, so it can be
distinguished from a repack.writeBitmaps configuration value even when
config already enables bitmaps. An explicit -b is reported as a conflict,
while a config-provided default is silently disabled for the duration

Johannes Schindelin d50ac11724 packfile: widen `unpack_object_header_buffer()` to `size_t`
As part of the ongoing effort to replace `unsigned long` data types with
`size_t` wherever appropriate (mainly to fix all those problems on
Windows with objects larger than 4GB), let's also adjust the return type
and the type of the `len` parameter of this function.

Johannes Schindelin b4b9a8cdbd git-zlib: widen `git_deflate_bound()` to `size_t`
All four `unsigned long`/`int`/`ssize_t` receivers across archive-zip,
diff, http-push and t/helper/test-pack-deltas were widened to `size_t`
in the prior commits, and remote-curl and fast-import were already
there. With every caller prepared, both the parameter and the return
type can now move without introducing any silent narrowing.

For inputs above zlib's `uLong` range (i.e. >4 GiB on platforms where
`uLong` is 32-bit, notably 64-bit Windows), defer to zlib's stored-block
formula (the same fallback it would itself use, see
https://github.com/madler/zlib/blob/v1.3.2/deflate.c#L832-L928 keeping
in mind that for large sizes, the `storelen` would be relevant, also
compare with https://github.com/madler/zlib/issues/549 for a fuller
story) plus the worst-case wrapper overhead. The existing path through
`deflateBound()` is unchanged for inputs that fit.

Johannes Schindelin aed4048938 t/helper/test-pack-deltas: widen `do_compress()`'s maxsize local to `size_t`
Prep for the upcoming `git_deflate_bound()` widening to `size_t`. The
local is only ever the return value of `git_deflate_bound()` and the
`xmalloc()`/`stream.avail_out` sizes derived from it; widening it has no
semantic effect today.

Johannes Schindelin 9cb9f418ec http-push: widen `start_put()`'s size local from `ssize_t` to `size_t`
The local is initialised from `git_deflate_bound()` (an unsigned upper
bound on the deflated output, never negative) and used in exactly three
places: the initialising assignment, `strbuf_grow(buf, size)` whose
parameter is already `size_t`, and `stream.avail_out` which became
`size_t` in the prior commit. There is no comparison against zero or a
negative value, no subtraction, no arithmetic that depends on
signedness, and no path that would assign a signed quantity to it.

The original `ssize_t` was the wrong type to begin with: a
`git_deflate_bound()` result above `SSIZE_MAX` would have wrapped
negative on assignment and then implicitly re-extended to a huge
`size_t` at `strbuf_grow()`/`stream.avail_out`, requesting an absurd
allocation. That is not a real-world concern for the object sizes
http-push pushes today, but it is also the reason the type needs to move
to `size_t` before `git_deflate_bound()` itself is widened.

Fixes a pre-existing silent narrowing from `git_deflate_bound()`'s
`unsigned long` return into an `int` local: anything past 2 GiB has
always wrapped negative here and then been re-extended to `size_t`
inside `xmalloc()`. Also prep for the upcoming `git_deflate_bound()`
widening to `size_t`, which would extend the narrowing further if
`bound` stayed `int`.

Johannes Schindelin 4211a2b892 packfile, git-zlib: widen `use_pack()` and zstream avail fields to `size_t`
Bundling the two widenings: four call sites pass `&stream.avail_in`
directly to `use_pack()`, and widening either type fencepost alone would
force a bridge variable at each. Doing both together is the simpler end
state and is the prerequisite for the `do_compress()` widening in the
next commit, which is what lets `write_no_reuse_object()` lose its last
`cast_size_t_to_ulong()` shim.

The unsigned-long locals widened at the other `use_pack()` callers
(avail / remaining / left) hold pack-window sizes bounded by
`core.packedGitWindowSize`, so the change is type consistency rather
than a new >4GB capability. `git_zstream.avail_in`/`avail_out` likewise
reach zlib's `uInt` fields only after `zlib_buf_cap()`'s 1 GiB cap, so
the wrapper already accepted `size_t`-shaped inputs in practice.

Johannes Schindelin 9efb6d57b7 delta: widen `create_delta()` and `diff_delta()` to `size_t`
Last stop in the delta-encoding API widening for >4 GiB blobs on
Windows: with `create_delta_index()` done in the prior commit and
`create_delta()`/`diff_delta()` finished here, every byte count that
crosses delta.h is now `size_t`. The struct fields they store into have
been `size_t` since the diff-delta struct widening.

The API change must move with all callers in the same commit (the build
only passes when every `&delta_size` matches the new `size_t*`). Caller
updates are kept minimal:

  * builtin/pack-objects.c `get_delta()` and `try_delta()`: widen only
    the local `delta_size` variable; the surrounding unsigned-long
    locals and their `cast_size_t_to_ulong()` shims are out of scope
    here and will be cleaned up in their own commits.

  * builtin/fast-import.c, diff.c, t/helper/test-pack-deltas.c:
    keep the local unsigned-long delta size (each feeds a still-
    unsigned-long downstream consumer: zlib's `avail_in`,
    `deflate_it()`, the test helper's own `do_compress()`), and bridge
    via a temporary `size_t` plus `cast_size_t_to_ulong()`. The new
    casts are paid back in later topics that widen those consumers.

  * t/helper/test-delta.c: widen the local outright (no downstream
    consumer beyond the test's own `out_size`, which is already
    `size_t`).

Note that GCC struggles a bit to figure out that `deltalen` is always
initialized before it is used; To help it along, we initialize it to 0.
This work-around will go away in a later patch series when `deltalen`
can be widened to `size_t`.

Johannes Schindelin 58f35eea9b pack-objects: widen `mem_usage` and `try_delta()`'s out-param to `size_t`
The pair must move together because `find_deltas()` passes `&mem_usage`
to `try_delta()`: widening either alone breaks the type match.

`mem_usage` accumulates per-object byte counts already computed in
`size_t` (`SIZE()` and `sizeof_delta_index()` reach here through
`free_unpacked()`, now `size_t`), and was the last 32-bit-on-Windows
narrowing point in the delta-window memory accounting chain. With this
commit, that chain uses `size_t` consistently except for
`sizeof_delta_index()`'s still-narrow return, whose value is bounded by
`create_delta_index()`'s entries cap.

`window_memory_limit` (config-driven via `git_config_ulong()`) stays
`unsigned long`: it is only compared against `mem_usage` and promotes.

Johannes Schindelin e0af3c839e pack-objects: widen `free_unpacked()` return to `size_t`
`free_unpacked()` sums two byte counts: `sizeof_delta_index()` and
`SIZE(n->entry)`. The latter has been `size_t` since the prior topic
"More work supporting objects larger than 4GB on Windows" widened
`SIZE()`/`oe_size()` to `size_t`, so accumulating it into an `unsigned
long` return was a silent Windows-only truncation on a packing run with
many large objects.

The sole caller, `find_deltas()`, still holds its own `mem_usage` in an
`unsigned long` for now, and therefore still truncates silently.

Johannes Schindelin cfd8970fa7 pack-objects: widen delta-cache accounting to `size_t`
These three are a single accounting tuple (the globals tracking
cumulative cached-delta bytes, plus the helper that compares them
against an incoming delta size) and are latently 32-bit on Windows where
`unsigned long` != `size_t`: a pack with many large cached deltas could
wrap silently.

The widening is internally consistent on its own: the additions and
subtractions against delta_cache_size already come from `size_t` sources
(`DELTA_SIZE()` returns `size_t`), and `delta_cacheable()`'s sole caller
in `try_delta()` still passes `unsigned long`, which promotes.

Prerequisite for dropping `try_delta()`'s `cast_size_t_to_ulong()`
shims, which becomes possible once 1create_delta()` and `diff_delta()`
are widened in a later commit.

Note: since `max_delta_cache_size` changes data type to `size_t`, a pair
of new helpers is introduced to parse config values of that type, too.

The sole caller (`try_delta()` in builtin/pack-objects.c) passes an

Splitting it out keeps the `diff_delta()`/`create_delta()` widening,
