Update parse-options API to catch mistakes to pass address of an

* ps/parse-options-integers:
parse-options: detect mismatches in integer signedness
parse-options: introduce precision handling for `OPTION_UNSIGNED`
parse-options: introduce precision handling for `OPTION_INTEGER`
parse-options: rename `OPT_MAGNITUDE()` to `OPT_UNSIGNED()`
parse-options: support unit factors in `OPT_INTEGER()`
global: use designated initializers for options
parse: fix off-by-one for minimum signed values
While we expose macros for most of our different option types understood
by the "parse-options" subsystem, not every combination of fields that
has one as that would otherwise quickly lead to an explosion of macros.
Instead, we just initialize structures manually for those variants of
fields that don't have a macro.
Callsites that open-code these structure initialization don't use
designated initializers though and instead just provide values for each
of the fields that they want to initialize. This has three significant
downsides:
- Callsites need to specify all values up to the last field that they
care about. This often includes fields that should simply be left at
their default zero-initialized state, which adds distraction.
- Any reader not deeply familiar with the layout of the structure
has a hard time figuring out what the respective initializers mean.
- Reordering or introducing new fields in the middle of the structure
is impossible without adapting all callsites.
Convert all sites to instead use designated initializers, which we have
started using in our codebase quite a while ago. This allows us to skip
any default-initialized fields, gives the reader context by specifying
the field names and allows us to reorder or introduce new fields where
we want to.

The functions `hash_object_file()`, `write_object_file()` and
`index_fd()` reuse the same set of flags to alter their behaviour. This
not only adds confusion, but given that every function only supports a
subset of the flags it becomes very hard to see which flags can be
passed to what function. Last but not least, this entangles the
implementation of all three function families.

The previous commit argued that parse-options callbacks should try to
use opt->value rather than touching globals directly. In some cases,
however, that's awkward to do. Some callbacks touch multiple variables,
or may even just call into an abstracted function that does so.
In some of these cases we _could_ convert them by stuffing the multiple
variables into a single struct and passing the struct pointer through
opt->value. But that may make other parts of the code less readable,
as the struct relationship has to be mentioned everywhere.
Let's just accept that these cases are special and leave them as-is. But
we do need to mark their "opt" parameters to satisfy -Wunused-parameter.

The "update-index --unresolve" is a relatively old feature that was
introduced in Git v1.4.1 (June 2006), which predates the
resolve-undo extension introduced in Git v1.7.0 (February 2010).
The original code that was limited only to work during a merge (and
not during a rebase or a cherry-pick) has been kept as the fallback
codepath to be used as a transition measure.
By now, for more than 10 years we have stored resolve-undo extension
in the index file, and the fallback code way outlived its usefulness.
Remove it, together with two file-scope static global variables.
One of these variables is still used by surviving function, but it
does not have to be a global at all, so move it to local to that
function.

"update-index --unresolve" uses the unmerge_index_entry_at() that
assumes that the path to be unresolved must be in the index, which
makes it impossible to unresolve a path that was resolved as removal.
Rewrite unresolve_one() to use the unmerge_index_entry() to support
unresolving such a path.
Existing tests for "update-index --unresolve" forgot to check one
thing that tests for "checkout --merge -- paths" tested, which is to
make sure that resolve-undo record that has already been used to
recreate higher-stage index entries is removed. Add new invocations
of "ls-files --resolve-undo" after running "update-index --unresolve"
to make sure that unresolving with update-index does remove the used
resolve-undo records.
Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
When "update-index --unresolve $path" cannot find the resolve-undo
record for the path the user requested to unresolve, it stuffs the
blobs from HEAD and MERGE_HEAD to stage #2 and stage #3 as a
fallback. For this reason, the operation does not even start unless
both "HEAD" and "MERGE_HEAD" exist.
This is suboptimal in a few ways:
* It does not recreate stage #1. Even though it is a correct
design decision not to do so (because it is impossible to
recreate in general cases, without knowing how we got there,
including what merge strategy was used), it is much less useful
not to have that information in the index.
* It limits the "unresolve" operation only during a conflicted "git
merge" and nothing else. Other operations like "rebase",
"cherry-pick", and "switch -m" may result in conflicts, and the
user may want to unresolve the conflict that they incorrectly
resolved in order to redo the resolution, but the fallback would
not kick in.
* Most importantly, the entire "unresolve" operation is disabled
after a conflicted merge is committed and MERGE_HEAD is removed,
even though the index has perfectly usable resolve-undo records.
By lazily reading the HEAD and MERGE_HEAD only when we need to go to
the fallback codepath, we will allow cases where resolve-undo
records are available (which is 100% of the time, unless the user is
reading from an index file created by Git more than 10 years ago) to
proceed even after a conflicted merge was committed, during other
mergy operations that do not use MERGE_HEAD, or after the result of
such mergy operations has been committed.

hash.h depends upon and includes repository.h, due to the definition and

depend upon repository.h into a new file hash-ll.h (the "low level"

the convenience inline functions aren't needed.
This allows hash.h and object.h to be fairly small, minimal headers. It
also exposes a lot of hidden dependencies on both path.h (which was

The parse-options callback for --again soaks up all remaining options by
manipulating the parse_opt_ctx's argc and argv fields. Even though it
has to look at both, the actual parsing happens via the do_reupdate()
helper, which only looks at the argv half (by passing it along to
parse_pathspec). So that helper doesn't need to see argc at all.
Note that the helper does look at "argv + 1" without confirming that
argc is greater than 0. We know this is correct because it is skipping
past the actual "--again" string, which will always be present. However,
to make what's going on more obvious, let's move that "+1" into the
caller, which has the matching "-1" when fixing up the ctx's argc/argv.

The update-index functionality is used internally by 'git stash push' to

This change enables odb-transactions for update-index infrastructure to
speed up adding new objects to the object database by leveraging the
batch fsync functionality.
There is some risk with this change, since under batch fsync, the object
files will be in a tmp-objdir until update-index is complete, so callers
using the --stdin option will not see them until update-index is done.
This risk is mitigated by flushing the ODB transaction prior to
reporting any verbose output so that objects will be visible to callers
that are synchronizing with update-index by snooping its output.

Move fsmonitor config settings to a new and opaque
`struct fsmonitor_settings` structure. Add a lazily-loaded pointer
to this into `struct repo_settings`
Create an `enum fsmonitor_mode` type in `struct fsmonitor_settings` to
represent the state of fsmonitor. This lets us represent which, if
any, fsmonitor provider (hook or IPC) is enabled.
Create `fsm_settings__get_*()` getters to lazily look up fsmonitor-
related config settings.
Get rid of the `core_fsmonitor` global variable. Move the code to
lookup the existing `core.fsmonitor` config value into the fsmonitor
settings.
Create a hook pathname variable in `struct fsmonitor-settings` and
only set it when in hook mode.
Extend the definition of `core.fsmonitor` to be either a boolean
or a hook pathname. When true, the builtin FSMonitor is used.
When false or unset, no FSMonitor (neither builtin nor hook) is
used.
The existing `core_fsmonitor` global variable was used to store the
pathname to the fsmonitor hook *and* it was used as a boolean to see
if fsmonitor was enabled. This dual usage and global visibility leads
to confusion when we add the IPC-based provider. So lets hide the
details in fsmonitor-settings.c and let it decide which provider to
use in the case of multiple settings. This avoids cluttering up
repo-settings.c with these private details.
A future commit in builtin-fsmonitor series will add the ability to
disqualify worktrees for various reasons, such as being mounted from a
remote volume, where fsmonitor should not be started. Having the
config settings hidden in fsmonitor-settings.c allows such worktree
restrictions to override the config values used.

Enable use of the sparse index with `update-index`. Most variations of
`update-index` work without explicitly expanding the index or making any
other updates in or outside of `update-index.c`.
The one usage requiring additional changes is `--cacheinfo`; if a file
inside a sparse directory was specified, the index would not be expanded
until after the cache tree is invalidated, leading to a mismatch between the
index and cache tree. This scenario is handled by rearranging
`add_index_entry_with_check`, allowing `index_name_stage_pos` to expand the
index *before* attempting to invalidate the relevant cache tree path,
avoiding cache tree/index corruption.

'git update-index --refresh' and '--really-refresh' should force writing
of the index file if racy timestamps have been encountered, as
'git status' already does [1].
Note that calling 'git update-index --refresh' still does not guarantee
that there will be no more racy timestamps afterwards (the same holds
true for 'git status'):
- calling 'git update-index --refresh' immediately after touching and
adding a file may still leave racy timestamps if all three operations
occur within the racy-tolerance (usually 1 second unless USE_NSEC has
been defined)
- calling 'git update-index --refresh' for timestamps which are set into
the future will leave them racy
To guarantee that such racy timestamps will be resolved would require to
wait until the system clock has passed beyond these timestamps and only
then write the index file. Especially for future timestamps, this does
not seem feasible because of possibly long delays/hangs.
