In the "Raw output format" section, we mention that the 'mode' and

For unmerged entries, 'mode' and 'sha1' are in fact 0* only when we are
looking at the index, i.e. on the left side for 'git diff-files' and on
the right side for 'git diff-index --cached'. Be more precise by
mentioning this, and while at it uniformize the wording of the "work
tree out of sync with the index" case.

Since 10637b84d9 (diff-files: -1/-2/-3 to diff against unmerged stage.,
2005-11-29), for unmerged entries 'git diff-files' print both an

Avoid an allocation by doing s/\n\s*/ /g (replacing NL and any following
whitespace with a SP) right in the strbuf instead of copying the result
to a temporary one and swapping them in the end. We can safely do that
because the replacement is never longer than the original string.

Running t4205 under UBSan with the EXPENSIVE prereq enabled triggers an
error when we try to create a commit message that is over 2GB:
commit.c:1574:6: runtime error: signed integer overflow:
-2147483648 - 1 cannot be represented in type 'int'
The problem is that find_invalid_utf8() is not prepared to handle
large buffers, as it uses an "int" to represent buffer sizes and
offsets.
We can fix this with a few changes:
1. We'll take in "len" as a size_t (which is what the caller has
anyway, since it's working with a strbuf).
2. We need to return a size_t to give the offset to the invalid utf8,
but we also need a sentinel value for "no invalid value"
(previously "-1"). Let's split these to return a bool for "found
invalid utf8" and then pass back the offset as an out-parameter.
We'll switch the function name to match the new semantics.
3. The caller in verify_utf8() uses a "long" to store buffer
positions, which is a bit funny. This goes back to 08a94a145c
(commit/commit-tree: correct latin1 to utf-8, 2012-06-28) and is
perhaps trying to match our use of "unsigned long" for object sizes
(though we don't care about it ever becoming negative here). This
should be a size_t, too, as some platforms (like Windows) still use
a 32-bit long on machines with 64-bit pointers.
4. The "bytes" field within find_invalid_utf() does not have range
problems. It is the number of bytes the utf8 sequence claims to
have, so is limited by how many bits can be set in a single 8-bit
byte. However, if we leave it as an "int" then the compiler will
complain about the sign mismatch when comparing it to "len". So
let's make it unsigned, too.
All of this is a little silly, of course, because 2GB text commit
messages are clearly nonsense. So we might consider rejecting them
outright, but it is easy enough to make these helper functions more
robust in the meantime.

In apply_patch(), we return immediately if read_patch_file() returns an
error. Traditionally this was OK, since an error from strbuf_read()
would restore the strbuf to its unallocated state.
But since f1c0e3946e (apply: reject patches larger than ~1 GiB,
2022-10-25), we may also return an error if we successfully read the
patch but it is too large. In this case we leak the strbuf contents when
apply_patch() returns.
You can see it in action by running t4141 under LSan with the EXPENSIVE
prereq enabled.
We can fix this in one of two places:
1. In read_patch_file(), we could release the buffer before returning
the error, behaving more like a raw strbuf_read() call.
2. In apply_patch(), we can release the strbuf ourselves before
returning.
I picked the latter, since it future proofs us against read_patch_file()
getting new error modes. We also have a cleanup label in that function
already, so now our error handling at this spot matches the rest of the
function (and all of the variables are initialized such that the rest of
the cleanup is correctly a noop at this point).

limit_list() maintains a date-sorted work queue of commits using a
linked list with commit_list_insert_by_date() for insertion. Each
insertion walks the list to find the right position — O(n) per insert.
In repositories with merge-heavy histories, the symmetric difference
can contain thousands of commits, making this O(n) insertion the
dominant cost.
Replace the sorted linked list with a prio_queue (binary heap). This
gives O(log n) insertion and O(log n) extraction instead of O(n)
insertion and O(1) extraction, which is a net win when the queue is
large.
The still_interesting() and everybody_uninteresting() helpers are
updated to scan the prio_queue's contiguous array instead of walking a
linked list. process_parents() already accepts both a commit_list and
a prio_queue parameter, so the change in limit_list() simply switches
which one is passed.
