The functions `repo_get_merge_bases_many()` and friends accepts an array
of commits as well as a parameter that indicates how large that array
is. This parameter is using a signed integer, which leads to a couple of
warnings with -Wsign-compare.
Refactor the code to use `size_t` to track indices instead and adapt
callers accordingly. While most callers are trivial, there are two
callers that require a bit more scrutiny:
- builtin/merge-base.c:show_merge_base() subtracts `1` from the
`rev_nr` before calling `repo_get_merge_bases_many_dirty()`, so if
the variable was `0` it would wrap. This code is fine though because
its only caller will execute that code only when `argc >= 2`, and it
follows that `rev_nr >= 2`, as well.
- bisect.ccheck_merge_bases() similarly subtracts `1` from `rev_nr`.
Again, there is only a single caller that populates `rev_nr` with
`good_revs.nr`. And because a bisection always requires at least one
good revision it follws that `rev_nr >= 1`.
Mark the file as -Wsign-compare-clean.

Our error reporting routines append a trailing newline, and the strings
we pass to them should not include them (otherwise we get an extra blank
line after the message).
These cases were all found by looking at the results of:
git grep -P '[^_](error|error_errno|warning|die|die_errno)\(.*\\n"[,)]' '*.c'
Note that we _do_ sometimes include a newline in the middle of such
messages, to create multiline output (hence our grep matching "," or ")"
after we see the newline, so we know we're at the end of the string).
It's possible that one or more of these cases could intentionally be
including a blank line at the end, but having looked at them all
manually, I think these are all just mistakes.

Add a new reachability algorithm that intends to discover (from a heuristic)
which branch was used as the starting point for a given commit. Add focused
tests using the 'test-tool reach' command.
In repositories that use pull requests (or merge requests) to advance one or
more "protected" branches, the history of that reference can be recovered by
following the first-parent history in most cases. Most are completed using
no-fast-forward merges, though squash merges are quite common. Less common
is rebase-and-merge, which still validates this assumption. Finally, the
case that breaks this assumption is the fast-forward update (with potential
rebasing). Even in this case, the previous commit commonly appears in the
first-parent history of the branch.
Similar assumptions can be made for a topic branch created by a single user
with the intention to merge back into another branch. Using 'git commit',
'git merge', and 'git cherry-pick' from HEAD will default to having the
first-parent commit be the previous commit at HEAD. This history changes
only with commands such as 'git reset' or 'git rebase', where the command
names also imply that the branch is starting from a new location.
With this movement of branches in mind, the following heuristic is proposed
as a way to determine the base branch for a given source branch:
Among a list of candidate base branches, select the candidate that
minimizes the number of commits in the first-parent history of the source
that are not in the first-parent history of the candidate.
Prior third-party solutions to this problem have used this optimization
criteria, but have relied upon extracting the first-parent history and
comparing those lists as tables instead of using commit-graph walks.
Given current command-line interface options, this optimization criteria is
not easy to detect directly. Even using the command
git rev-list --count --first-parent <base>..<source>
does not measure this count, as it uses full reachability from <base> to
determine which commits to remove from the range '<base>..<source>'. This
may lead to one asking if we should instead be using the full reachability
of the candidate and only the first-parent history of the source. This,
unfortunately, does not work for repositories that use long-lived branches
and automation to merge across those branches.
In extremely large repositories, merging into a single trunk may not be
feasible. This is usually due to the desired frequency of updates
(thousands of engineers doing daily work) combined with the time required to
perform a validation build. These factors combine to create significant
risk of semantic merge conflicts, leading to build breaks on the trunk. In
response, repository maintainers can create a single Level Zero (L0) trunk
and multiple Level One (L1) branches. By partitioning the engineers by
organization, these engineers may see lower risk of semantic merge conflicts
as well as be protected against build breaks in other L1 branches. The key
to making this system work is a semi-automated process of merging L1
branches into the L0 trunk and vice-versa. In a large enough organization,
these L1 branches may further split into L2 or L3 branches, but the same
principles apply for merging across deeper levels.
If these automated merges use a typical merge with the second parent
bringing in the "new" content, then each L0 and L1 branch can track its
previous positions by following first-parent history, which appear as
parallel paths (until reaching the first place where the branches diverged).
If we also walk to second parents, then the histories overlap significantly
and cannot be distinguished except for very-recent changes.
For this reason, the first-parent condition should be symmetrical across the
base and source branches.
Another common case for desiring the result of this optimization method is
the use of release branches. When releasing a version of a repository, a
branch can be used to track that release. Any updates that are worth fixing
in that release can be merged to the release branch and shipped with only
the necessary fixes without any new features introduced in the trunk branch.
The 'maint-2.<X>' branches represent this pattern in the Git project. The
microsoft/git fork uses 'vfs-2.<X>.<Y>' branches to track the changes that
are custom to that fork on top of each upstream Git release 2.<X>.<Y>. This
application doesn't need the symmetrical first-parent condition, but the use
of first-parent histories does not change the results for these branches.
To determine the base branch from a list of candidates, create a new method
in commit-reach.c that performs a single* commit-graph walk. The core
concept is to walk first-parents starting at the candidate bases and the
source, tracking the "best" base to reach a given commit. Use generation
numbers to ensure that a commit is walked at most once and all children have
been explored before visiting it. When reaching a commit that is reachable
from both a base and the source, we will then have a guarantee that this is
the closest intersection of first-parent histories. Track the best base to
reach that commit and return it as a result. In rare cases involving
multiple root commits, the first-parent history of the source may never
intersect any of the candidates and thus a null result is returned.
* There are up to two walks, since we require all commits to have a computed
generation number in order to avoid incorrect results. This is similar to
the need for computed generation numbers in ahead_behind() as implemented
in fd67d149bd (commit-reach: implement ahead_behind() logic, 2023-03-20).
In order to track the "best" base, use a new commit slab that stores an
integer. This value defaults to zero upon initialization, so use -1 to
track that the source commit can reach this commit and use 'i + 1' to track
that the ith base can reach this commit. When multiple bases can reach a
commit, minimize the index to break ties. This allows the caller to specify
an order to the bases that determines some amount of preference when the
heuristic does not result in a unique result.
The trickiest part of the integer slab is what happens when reaching a
collision among the histories of the bases and the history of the source.
This is noticed when viewing the first parent and seeing that it has a slab
value that differs in sign (negative or positive). In this case, the
collision commit is stored in the method variable 'branch_point' and its
slab value is set to -1. The index of the best base (so far) is stored in
the method variable 'best_index'. It is possible that there are multiple
commits that have the branch_point as its first parent, leading to multiple
updates of best_index. The result is determined when 'branch_point' is
visited in the commit walk, giving the guarantee that all commits that could
reach 'branch_point' were visited.
Several interesting cases of collisions and different results are tested in
the t6600-test-reach.sh script. Recall that this script also tests the
algorithm in three possible states involving the commit-graph file and how
many commits are written in the file. This provides some coverage of the
need (and lack of need) for the ensure_generations_valid() method.

Use of the `the_repository` variable is deprecated nowadays, and we
slowly but steadily convert the codebase to not use it anymore. Instead,
callers should be passing down the repository to work on via parameters.
It is hard though to prove that a given code unit does not use this
variable anymore. The most trivial case, merely demonstrating that there
is no direct use of `the_repository`, is already a bit of a pain during
code reviews as the reviewer needs to manually verify claims made by the
patch author. The bigger problem though is that we have many interfaces
that implicitly rely on `the_repository`.
Introduce a new `USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE` macro that allows code
units to opt into usage of `the_repository`. The intent of this macro is
to demonstrate that a certain code unit does not use this variable
anymore, and to keep it from new dependencies on it in future changes,
be it explicit or implicit
For now, the macro only guards `the_repository` itself as well as
`the_hash_algo`. There are many more known interfaces where we have an
implicit dependency on `the_repository`, but those are not guarded at
the current point in time. Over time though, we should start to add
guards as required (or even better, just remove them).
Define the macro as required in our code units. As expected, most of our
code still relies on the global variable. Nearly all of our builtins
rely on the variable as there is no way yet to pass `the_repository` to
their entry point. For now, declare the macro in "biultin.h" to keep the
required changes at least a little bit more contained.

Currently this function treats unrelated commit histories the same way
as commit histories with missing commit objects.
Typically, missing commit objects constitute a corrupt repository,
though, and should be reported as such. The next commits will make it
so, but there is one exception: In `git fetch --update-shallow` we
_expect_ commit objects to be missing, and we do want to treat the
now-incomplete commit histories as unrelated.
To allow for that, let's introduce an additional parameter that is
passed to `repo_in_merge_bases_many()` to trigger this behavior, and use
it in the two callers in `shallow.c`.
This commit changes behavior slightly: unless called from the
`shallow.c` functions that set the `ignore_missing_commits` bit, any
non-existing tip commit that is passed to `repo_in_merge_bases_many()`
will now result in an error.
Note: When encountering missing commits while traversing the commit
history in search for merge bases, with this commit there won't be a
change in behavior just yet, their children will still be interpreted as
root commits. This bug will get fixed by follow-up commits.

Way back in f9b8908b (commit.c: use generation numbers for
in_merge_bases(), 2018-05-01), a heuristic was used to short-circuit
the in_merge_bases() walk. This works just fine as long as the
caller is checking only two commits, but when there are multiple,
there is a possibility that this heuristic is _very wrong_.
Some code moves since then has changed this method to
repo_in_merge_bases_many() inside commit-reach.c. The heuristic
computes the minimum generation number of the "reference" list, then
compares this number to the generation number of the "commit".
In a recent topic, a test was added that used in_merge_bases_many()
to test if a commit was reachable from a number of commits pulled
from a reflog. However, this highlighted the problem: if any of the
reference commits have a smaller generation number than the given
commit, then the walk is skipped _even if there exist some with
higher generation number_.
This heuristic is wrong! It must check the MAXIMUM generation number
of the reference commits, not the MINIMUM.
This highlights a testing gap. t6600-test-reach.sh covers many
methods in commit-reach.c, including in_merge_bases() and
get_merge_bases_many(), but since these methods either restrict to
two input commits or actually look for the full list of merge bases,
they don't check this heuristic!
Add a possible input to "test-tool reach" that tests
in_merge_bases_many() and add tests to t6600-test-reach.sh that
cover this heuristic. This includes cases for the reference commits
having generation above and below the generation of the input commit,
but also having maximum generation below the generation of the input
commit.
The fix itself is to swap min_generation with a max_generation in
repo_in_merge_bases_many().
