The reflog-expire command has been unimplemented since it was added in
80f2a6097c (t/helper: add test-ref-store to test ref-store functions,
2017-03-26). This causes -Wunused-parameter to complain, since the
function just calls die() without looking at its arguments.
We could mark these as UNUSED to silence the warning. But let's just
drop the function. It has no callers in the test suite and is not doing
anything useful, beyond perhaps reminding us that it's something we
_could_ be testing.
But since the bulk of the work in adding such tests would be the shell
bits that actually examine the reflog state before and after expiration,
this is not even a useful step in that direction. Somebody who wants to
do that work later can easily add this function back.

Reduce reliance on a global state in the config reading API.
* gc/config-context:
config: pass source to config_parser_event_fn_t
config: add kvi.path, use it to evaluate includes
config.c: remove config_reader from configsets
config: pass kvi to die_bad_number()
trace2: plumb config kvi
config.c: pass ctx with CLI config
config: pass ctx with config files
config.c: pass ctx in configsets
config: add ctx arg to config_fn_t
urlmatch.h: use config_fn_t type
config: inline git_color_default_config
Plumb "struct key_value_info" through all code paths that end in
die_bad_number(), which lets us remove the helper functions that read
analogous values from "struct config_reader". As a result, nothing reads
config_reader.config_kvi any more, so remove that too.
In config.c, this requires changing the signature of
git_configset_get_value() to 'return' "kvi" in an out parameter so that
git_configset_get_<type>() can pass it to git_config_<type>(). Only
numeric types will use "kvi", so for non-numeric types (e.g.
git_configset_get_string()), pass NULL to indicate that the out
parameter isn't needed.
Outside of config.c, config callbacks now need to pass "ctx->kvi" to any
of the git_config_<type>() functions that parse a config string into a
number type. Included is a .cocci patch to make that refactor.
The only exceptional case is builtin/config.c, where git_config_<type>()
is called outside of a config callback (namely, on user-provided input),
so config source information has never been available. In this case,
die_bad_number() defaults to a generic, but perfectly descriptive
message. Let's provide a safe, non-NULL for "kvi" anyway, but make sure
not to change the message.

Pass config_context to config callbacks in configset_iter(), trivially
setting the .kvi member to the cached key_value_info. Then, in config
callbacks that are only used with configsets, use the .kvi member to
replace calls to current_config_*(), and delete current_config_line()
because it has no remaining callers.
This leaves builtin/config.c and config.c as the only remaining users of
current_config_*().

Add a new "const struct config_context *ctx" arg to config_fn_t to hold
additional information about the config iteration operation.
config_context has a "struct key_value_info kvi" member that holds
metadata about the config source being read (e.g. what kind of config
source it is, the filename, etc). In this series, we're only interested
in .kvi, so we could have just used "struct key_value_info" as an arg,
but config_context makes it possible to add/adjust members in the future
without changing the config_fn_t signature. We could also consider other
ways of organizing the args (e.g. moving the config name and value into
config_context or key_value_info), but in my experiments, the
incremental benefit doesn't justify the added complexity (e.g. a
config_fn_t will sometimes invoke another config_fn_t but with a
different config value).
In subsequent commits, the .kvi member will replace the global "struct
config_reader" in config.c, making config iteration a global-free
operation. It requires much more work for the machinery to provide
meaningful values of .kvi, so for now, merely change the signature and
call sites, pass NULL as a placeholder value, and don't rely on the arg
in any meaningful way.
Most of the changes are performed by
contrib/coccinelle/config_fn_ctx.pending.cocci, which, for every
config_fn_t:
- Modifies the signature to accept "const struct config_context *ctx"
- Passes "ctx" to any inner config_fn_t, if needed
- Adds UNUSED attributes to "ctx", if needed
Most config_fn_t instances are easily identified by seeing if they are
called by the various config functions. Most of the remaining ones are
manually named in the .cocci patch. Manual cleanups are still needed,
but the majority of it is trivial; it's either adjusting config_fn_t
that the .cocci patch didn't catch, or adding forward declarations of
"struct config_context ctx" to make the signatures make sense.
The non-trivial changes are in cases where we are invoking a config_fn_t
outside of config machinery, and we now need to decide what value of
"ctx" to pass. These cases are:
- trace2/tr2_cfg.c:tr2_cfg_set_fl()
This is indirectly called by git_config_set() so that the trace2
machinery can notice the new config values and update its settings
using the tr2 config parsing function, i.e. tr2_cfg_cb().
- builtin/checkout.c:checkout_main()
This calls git_xmerge_config() as a shorthand for parsing a CLI arg.
This might be worth refactoring away in the future, since
git_xmerge_config() can call git_default_config(), which can do much
more than just parsing.
Handle them by creating a KVI_INIT macro that initializes "struct
key_value_info" to a reasonable default, and use that to construct the
"ctx" arg.

The existing options allow some measure of selectivity. By default
git-pack-refs packs all tags. --all can be used to include all refs,

--exclude.
While these knobs give the user some selection over which refs to pack,
it could be useful to give more control. For instance, a repository may
have a set of branches that are rarely updated and would benefit from
being packed. --include would allow the user to easily include a set of

Apply similar treatment as in the previous commit to remove usage of
`strtok()` from the "oidmap" test helper.
Each of the different commands that the "json-writer" helper accepts
pops the next space-delimited token from the current line and interprets
it as a string, integer, or double (with the exception of the very first
token, which is the command itself).
To accommodate this, split the line in place by the space character, and
pass the corresponding string_list to each of the specialized `get_s()`,
`get_i()`, and `get_d()` functions.
`get_i()` and `get_d()` are thin wrappers around `get_s()` that convert
their result into the appropriate type by either calling `strtol()` or
`strtod()`, respectively. In `get_s()`, we mark the token as "consumed"
by incrementing the `consumed_nr` counter, indicating how many tokens we
have read up to that point.
Because each of these functions needs the string-list parts, the number
of tokens consumed, and the line number, these three are wrapped up in
to a struct representing the line state.

Enhance `string_list_split_in_place()` to accept multiple characters as
delimiters instead of a single character.
Instead of using `strchr(2)` to locate the first occurrence of the given
delimiter character, `string_list_split_in_place_multi()` uses
`strcspn(2)` to move past the initial segment of characters comprised of
any characters in the delimiting set.
When only a single delimiting character is provided, `strpbrk(2)` (which
is implemented with `strcspn(2)`) has equivalent performance to
`strchr(2)`. Modern `strcspn(2)` implementations treat an empty
delimiter or the singleton delimiter as a special case and fall back to
calling strchrnul(). Both glibc[1] and musl[2] implement `strcspn(2)`
this way.
This change is one step to removing `strtok(2)` from the tree. Note that
`string_list_split_in_place()` is not a strict replacement for
`strtok()`, since it will happily turn sequential delimiter characters
into empty entries in the resulting string_list. For example:
string_list_split_in_place(&xs, "foo:;:bar:;:baz", ":;", -1)
would yield a string list of:
["foo", "", "", "bar", "", "", "baz"]
Callers that wish to emulate the behavior of strtok(2) more directly
should call `string_list_remove_empty_items()` after splitting.
To avoid regressions for the new multi-character delimter cases, update
t0063 in this patch as well.

hash.h depends upon and includes repository.h, due to the definition and
use of the_hash_algo (defined as the_repository->hash_algo). However,
most headers trying to include hash.h are only interested in the layout
of the structs like object_id. Move the parts of hash.h that do not
depend upon repository.h into a new file hash-ll.h (the "low level"
parts of hash.h), and adjust other files to use this new header where
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
brought in by repository.h) and repository.h (which was previously
implicitly brought in by object.h), so also adjust other files to be
more explicit about what they depend upon.

Many test helper programs do not bother to look at argc or argv, because
they don't take any options. In a user-facing program, it's a good idea
to check for unexpected arguments and complain. But for a test helper,
it's not worth the trouble to enforce this.
But we do want to tell the compiler we're OK with ignoring them, to

If, when parsing numbers from config, die_bad_number() is called, it
reports the filename and config source type if we were parsing a config
file, but not if we were iterating a config_set (it defaults to a less
specific error message). Most call sites don't parse config files
because config is typically read once and cached, so we only report
filename and config source type in "git config --type" (since "git
config" always parses config files).
This could have been fixed when we taught the current_config_*
functions to respect config_set values (0d44a2dacc (config: return
configset value for current_config_ functions, 2016-05-26), but it was
hard to spot then and we might have just missed it (I didn't find
mention of die_bad_number() in the original ML discussion [1].)
Fix this by refactoring the current_config_* functions into variants
that don't BUG() when we aren't reading config, and using the resulting
functions in die_bad_number(). "git config --get[-regexp] --type=int"
cannot use the non-refactored version because it parses the int value
_after_ parsing the config file, which would run into the BUG().
Since the refactored functions aren't public, they use "struct
config_reader".

Have the "git_configset_get_value_multi()" function and its siblings
return an "int" and populate a "**dest" parameter like every other
git_configset_get_*()" in the API.
As we'll take advantage of in subsequent commits, this fixes a blind
spot in the API where it wasn't possible to tell whether a list was
empty from whether a config key existed. For now we don't make use of
those new return values, but faithfully convert existing API users.
Most of this is straightforward, commentary on cases that stand out:
- To ensure that we'll properly use the return values of this function
in the future we're using the "RESULT_MUST_BE_USED" macro introduced
in [1].
As git_die_config() now has to handle this return value let's have
it BUG() if it can't find the config entry. As tested for in a
preceding commit we can rely on getting the config list in
git_die_config().
- The loops after getting the "list" value in "builtin/gc.c" could
also make use of "unsorted_string_list_has_string()" instead of using
that loop, but let's leave that for now.
- In "versioncmp.c" we now use the return value of the functions,
instead of checking if the lists are still non-NULL.

We already have the basic "git_config_get_value()" function and its
"repo_*" and "configset" siblings to get a given "key" and assign the
last key found to a provided "value".
But some callers don't care about that value, but just want to use the
return value of the "get_value()" function to check whether the key
exist (or another non-zero return value).
The immediate motivation for this is that a subsequent commit will
need to change all callers of the "*_get_value_multi()" family of
functions. In two cases here we (ab)used it to check whether we had
any values for the given key, but didn't care about the return value.
The rest of the callers here used various other config API functions
to do the same, all of which resolved to the same underlying functions
to provide the answer.
Some of these were using either git_config_get_string() or
git_config_get_string_tmp(), see fe4c750fb1 (submodule--helper: fix a
configure_added_submodule() leak, 2022-09-01) for a recent example. We
can now use a helper function that doesn't require a throwaway
variable.
We could have changed git_configset_get_value_multi() (and then
git_config_get_value() etc.) to accept a "NULL" as a "dest" for all
callers, but let's avoid changing the behavior of existing API
users. Having an "unused" value that we throw away internal to
config.c is cheap.
A "NULL as optional dest" pattern is also more fragile, as the intent
of the caller might be misinterpreted if he were to accidentally pass
"NULL", e.g. when "dest" is passed in from another function.
Another name for this function could have been
"*_config_key_exists()", as suggested in [1]. That would work for all
of these callers, and would currently be equivalent to this function,
as the git_configset_get_value() API normalizes all non-zero return
values to a "1".
But adding that API would set us up to lose information, as e.g. if
git_config_parse_key() in the underlying configset_find_element()
fails we'd like to return -1, not 1.
Let's change the underlying configset_find_element() function to
support this use-case, we'll make further use of it in a subsequent
commit where the git_configset_get_value_multi() function itself will
expose this new return value.
This still leaves various inconsistencies and clobbering or ignoring
of the return value in place. E.g here we're modifying
configset_add_value(), but ever since it was added in [2] we've been
ignoring its "int" return value, but as we're changing the
configset_find_element() it uses, let's have it faithfully ferry that
"ret" along.
Let's also use the "RESULT_MUST_BE_USED" macro introduced in [3] to
assert that we're checking the return value of
configset_find_element().
We're leaving the same change to configset_add_value() for some future
series. Once we start paying attention to its return value we'd need
to ferry it up as deep as do_config_from(), and would need to make
least read_{,very_}early_config() and git_protected_config() return an
"int" instead of "void". Let's leave that for now, and focus on
the *_get_*() functions.
