Elijah Newren	ef3ca95475	Add missing includes and forward declarations I looped over the toplevel header files, creating a temporary two-line C program for each consisting of #include "git-compat-util.h" #include $HEADER This patch is the result of manually fixing errors in compiling those tiny programs.

Johannes Schindelin	dddbad728c	timestamp_t: a new data type for timestamps Git's source code assumes that unsigned long is at least as precise as time_t. Which is incorrect, and causes a lot of problems, in particular where unsigned long is only 32-bit (notably on Windows, even in 64-bit versions). So let's just use a more appropriate data type instead. In preparation for this, we introduce the new `timestamp_t` data type. By necessity, this is a very, very large patch, as it has to replace all timestamps' data type in one go. As we will use a data type that is not necessarily identical to `time_t`, we need to be very careful to use `time_t` whenever we interact with the system functions, and `timestamp_t` everywhere else.

Jeff King	abcb86553d	pack-objects: match prune logic for discarding objects A recent commit taught git-prune to keep non-recent objects that are reachable from recent ones. However, pack-objects, when loosening unreachable objects, tries to optimize out the write in the case that the object will be immediately pruned. It now gets this wrong, since its rule does not reflect the new prune code (and this can be seen by running t6501 with a strategically placed repack). Let's teach pack-objects similar logic.

Jeff King	d3038d22f9	prune: keep objects reachable from recent objects Our current strategy with prune is that an object falls into one of three categories: 1. Reachable (from ref tips, reflogs, index, etc). 2. Not reachable, but recent (based on the --expire time). 3. Not reachable and not recent. We keep objects from (1) and (2), but prune objects in (3). The point of (2) is that these objects may be part of an in-progress operation that has not yet updated any refs. However, it is not always the case that objects for an in-progress operation will have a recent mtime. For example, the object database may have an old copy of a blob (from an abandoned operation, a branch that was deleted, etc). If we create a new tree that points to it, a simultaneous prune will leave our tree, but delete the blob. Referencing that tree with a commit will then work (we check that the tree is in the object database, but not that all of its referred objects are), as will mentioning the commit in a ref. But the resulting repo is corrupt; we are missing the blob reachable from a ref. One way to solve this is to be more thorough when referencing a sha1: make sure that not only do we have that sha1, but that we have objects it refers to, and so forth recursively. The problem is that this is very expensive. Creating a parent link would require traversing the entire object graph! Instead, this patch pushes the extra work onto prune, which runs less frequently (and has to look at the whole object graph anyway). It creates a new category of objects: objects which are not recent, but which are reachable from a recent object. We do not prune these objects, just like the reachable and recent ones. This lets us avoid the recursive check above, because if we have an object, even if it is unreachable, we should have its referent. We can make a simple inductive argument that with this patch, this property holds (that there are no objects with missing referents in the repository): 0. When we have no objects, we have nothing to refer or be referred to, so the property holds. 1. If we add objects to the repository, their direct referents must generally exist (e.g., if you create a tree, the blobs it references must exist; if you create a commit to point at the tree, the tree must exist). This is already the case before this patch. And it is not 100% foolproof (you can make bogus objects using `git hash-object`, for example), but it should be the case for normal usage. Therefore for any sequence of object additions, the property will continue to hold. 2. If we remove objects from the repository, then we will not remove a child object (like a blob) if an object that refers to it is being kept. That is the part implemented by this patch. Note, however, that our reachability check and the actual pruning are not atomic. So it _is_ still possible to violate the property (e.g., an object becomes referenced just as we are deleting it). This patch is shooting for eliminating problems where the mtimes of dependent objects differ by hours or days, and one is dropped without the other. It does nothing to help with short races. Naively, the simplest way to implement this would be to add all recent objects as tips to the reachability traversal. However, this does not perform well. In a recently-packed repository, all reachable objects will also be recent, and therefore we have to look at each object twice. This patch instead performs the reachability traversal, then follows up with a second traversal for recent objects, skipping any that have already been marked.

Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy	dc347195cc	prune: show progress while marking reachable objects prune already shows progress meter while pruning. The marking part may take a few seconds or more, depending on repository size. Show progress meter during this time too.

Junio C Hamano	94421474e0	Move traversal of reachable objects into a separate library. This moves major part of builtin-prune into a separate file, reachable.c. It is used to mark the objects that are reachable from refs, and optionally from reflogs. The patch looks very large, but if you look at it with diff -C, which this message is formatted in, most of them are copied lines and there are very little additions.
