This kills the_index dependency in get_oid_with_context() but for
get_oid() and friends, they still assume the_repository (which also
means the_index).
Unfortunately the widespread use of get_oid() will make it hard to

When printing variables which contain a size, today "unsigned long"
is used at many places.
In order to be able to change the type from "unsigned long" into size_t
some day in the future, we need to have a way to print 64 bit variables
on a system that has "unsigned long" defined to be 32 bit, like Win64.
Upcast all those variables into uintmax_t before they are printed.
This is to prepare for a bigger change, when "unsigned long"

When we define a parse-options callback, the flags we put in the option
struct must match what the callback expects. For example, a callback
which does not handle the "unset" parameter should only be used with
PARSE_OPT_NONEG. But since the callback and the option struct are not
defined next to each other, it's easy to get this wrong (as earlier
patches in this series show).
Fortunately, the compiler can help us here: compiling with
-Wunused-parameters can show us which callbacks ignore their "unset"
parameters (and likewise, ones that ignore "arg" expect to be triggered
with PARSE_OPT_NOARG).
But after we've inspected a callback and determined that all of its
callers use the right flags, what do we do next? We'd like to silence
the compiler warning, but do so in a way that will catch any wrong calls
in the future.
We can do that by actually checking those variables and asserting that
they match our expectations. Because this is such a common pattern,
we'll introduce some helper macros. The resulting messages aren't
as descriptive as we could make them, but the file/line information from
BUG() is enough to identify the problem (and anyway, the point is that
these should never be seen).
Each of the annotated callbacks in this patch triggers
-Wunused-parameters, and was manually inspected to make sure all callers
use the correct options (so none of these BUGs should be triggerable).

The options callback for --batch and --batch-check detects when the two
mutually incompatible options are used. But it simply returns an error
code to parse-options, meaning the program will quit without any kind of
message to the user.
Instead, let's use error() to print something and return -1. Note that
this flips the error return from 1 to -1, but negative values are more
idiomatic here (and parse-options treats them the same).

There are three ways to convince cat-file to stream a blob:
- cat-file -p $blob
- cat-file blob $blob
- echo $batch | cat-file --batch
In the first two, we simply exit with the error code of
streaw_blob_to_fd(). That means that an error will cause us
to exit with "-1" (which we try to avoid) without printing
any kind of error message (which is confusing to the user).
Instead, let's match the third case, which calls die() on an
error. Unfortunately we cannot be more specific, as
stream_blob_to_fd() does not tell us whether the problem was
on reading (e.g., a corrupt object) or on writing (e.g.,
ENOSPC). That might be an opportunity for future work, but
for now we will at least exit with a sane message and exit
code.

When we're in batch mode, we end up in batch_object_write()
for each object, which allocates its own strbuf for each
call. Instead, we can provide a single "scratch" buffer that
gets reused for each output. When running:
git cat-file --batch-all-objects --batch-check='%(objectname)'
on git.git, my best-of-five time drops from:
real 0m0.171s
user 0m0.159s
sys 0m0.012s
to:
real 0m0.133s
user 0m0.121s
sys 0m0.012s
Note that we could do this just by putting the "scratch"
pointer into "struct expand_data", but I chose instead to
add an extra parameter to the callstack. That's more
verbose, but it makes it a bit more obvious what is going
on, which in turn makes it easy to see where we need to be
releasing the string in the caller (right after the loop
which uses it in each case).

If you're going to access the contents of every object in a
packfile, it's generally much more efficient to do so in
pack order, rather than in hash order. That increases the
locality of access within the packfile, which in turn is
friendlier to the delta base cache, since the packfile puts
related deltas next to each other. By contrast, hash order
is effectively random, since the sha1 has no discernible
relationship to the content.
This patch introduces an "--unordered" option to cat-file
which iterates over packs in pack-order under the hood. You
can see the results when dumping all of the file content:
$ time ./git cat-file --batch-all-objects --buffer --batch | wc -c
6883195596
real 0m44.491s
user 0m42.902s
sys 0m5.230s
$ time ./git cat-file --unordered \
--batch-all-objects --buffer --batch | wc -c
6883195596
real 0m6.075s
user 0m4.774s
sys 0m3.548s
Same output, different order, way faster. The same speed-up
applies even if you end up accessing the object content in a
different process, like:
git cat-file --batch-all-objects --buffer --batch-check |
grep blob |
git cat-file --batch='%(objectname) %(rest)' |
wc -c
Adding "--unordered" to the first command drops the runtime
in git.git from 24s to 3.5s.
Side note: there are actually further speedups available
for doing it all in-process now. Since we are outputting
the object content during the actual pack iteration, we
know where to find the object and could skip the extra
lookup done by oid_object_info(). This patch stops short
of that optimization since the underlying API isn't ready
for us to make those sorts of direct requests.
So if --unordered is so much better, why not make it the
default? Two reasons:
1. We've promised in the documentation that --batch-all-objects
outputs in hash order. Since cat-file is plumbing,
people may be relying on that default, and we can't
change it.
2. It's actually _slower_ for some cases. We have to
compute the pack revindex to walk in pack order. And
our de-duplication step uses an oidset, rather than a
sort-and-dedup, which can end up being more expensive.
If we're just accessing the type and size of each
object, for example, like:
git cat-file --batch-all-objects --buffer --batch-check
my best-of-five warm cache timings go from 900ms to
1100ms using --unordered. Though it's possible in a
cold-cache or under memory pressure that we could do
better, since we'd have better locality within the
packfile.
And one final question: why is it "--unordered" and not
"--pack-order"? The answer is again two-fold:
1. "pack order" isn't a well-defined thing across the
whole set of objects. We're hitting loose objects, as
well as objects in multiple packs, and the only
ordering we're promising is _within_ a single pack. The
rest is apparently random.
2. The point here is optimization. So we don't want to
promise any particular ordering, but only to say that
we will choose an ordering which is likely to be
efficient for accessing the object content. That leaves
the door open for further changes in the future without
having to add another compatibility option.

In this patch the #include is only added to files that would fail to

Teach sha1_file to fetch objects from the remote configured in
extensions.partialclone whenever an object is requested but missing.
The fetching of objects can be suppressed through a global variable.
This is used by fsck and index-pack.
However, by default, such fetching is not suppressed. This is meant as a
temporary measure to ensure that all Git commands work in such a
situation. Future patches will update some commands to either tolerate
missing objects (without fetching them) or be more efficient in fetching
them.
In order to determine the code changes in sha1_file.c necessary, I
investigated the following:
(1) functions in sha1_file.c that take in a hash, without the user
regarding how the object is stored (loose or packed)
(2) functions in packfile.c (because I need to check callers that know
about the loose/packed distinction and operate on both differently,
and ensure that they can handle the concept of objects that are
neither loose nor packed)
(1) is handled by the modification to sha1_object_info_extended().
For (2), I looked at for_each_packed_object and others. For
for_each_packed_object, the callers either already work or are fixed in
this patch:
- reachable - only to find recent objects
- builtin/fsck - already knows about missing objects
- builtin/cat-file - warning message added in this commit
Callers of the other functions do not need to be changed:
- parse_pack_index
- http - indirectly from http_get_info_packs
- find_pack_entry_one
- this searches a single pack that is provided as an argument; the
caller already knows (through other means) that the sought object
is in a specific pack
- find_sha1_pack
- fast-import - appears to be an optimization to not store a file if
it is already in a pack
- http-walker - to search through a struct alt_base
- http-push - to search through remote packs
- has_sha1_pack
- builtin/fsck - already knows about promisor objects
- builtin/count-objects - informational purposes only (check if loose
object is also packed)
- builtin/prune-packed - check if object to be pruned is packed (if
not, don't prune it)
- revision - used to exclude packed objects if requested by user
- diff - just for optimization

Gcc 7 adds -Wimplicit-fallthrough, which can warn when a
switch case falls through to the next case. The general idea
is that the compiler can't tell if this was intentional or
not, so you should annotate any intentional fall-throughs as
such, leaving it to complain about any unannotated ones.
There's a GNU __attribute__ which can be used for
annotation, but of course we'd have to #ifdef it away on
non-gcc compilers. Gcc will also recognize
specially-formatted comments, which matches our current
practice. Let's extend that practice to all of the
unannotated sites (which I did look over and verify that
they were behaving as intended).
Ideally in each case we'd actually give some reasons in the
comment about why we're falling through, or what we're
falling through to. And gcc does support that with
-Wimplicit-fallthrough=2, which relaxes the comment pattern
matching to anything that contains "fallthrough" (or a
variety of spelling variants). However, this isn't the
default for -Wimplicit-fallthrough, nor for -Wextra. In the
name of simplicity, it's probably better for us to support
the default level, which requires "fallthrough" to be the
only thing in the comment (modulo some window dressing like
"else" and some punctuation; see the gcc manual for the
complete set of patterns).
This patch suppresses all warnings due to
-Wimplicit-fallthrough. We might eventually want to add that
to the DEVELOPER Makefile knob, but we should probably wait
until gcc 7 is more widely adopted (since earlier versions
will complain about the unknown warning type).

When a sha1 lookup returns the tree path via "struct
object_context", it just copies it into a fixed-size buffer.
This means the result can be truncated, and it means our
"struct object_context" consumes a lot of stack space.
Instead, let's allocate a string on the heap. Because most
callers don't care about this information, we'll avoid doing
it by default (so they don't all have to start calling
free() on the result). There are basically two options for
the caller to signal to us that it's interested:
1. By setting a pointer to storage in the object_context.
2. By passing a flag in another parameter.
Doing (1) would match the way that sha1_object_info_extended()
works. But it would mean that every caller would have to
initialize the object_context, which they don't currently
have to do.
This patch does (2), and adds a new bit to the function's

field are updated to pass the new flag.

With this patch, --batch can be combined with --textconv or --filters.
For this to work, the input needs to have the form
<object name><single white space><path>
so that the filters can be chosen appropriately.

There are circumstances when it is relatively easy to figure out the
object name for a given path, but not the name of the containing tree.
For example, when looking at a diff generated by Git, the object names
are recorded, but not the revision. As a matter of fact, the revisions
from which the diff was generated may not even exist locally.
In such a case, the user would have to generate a fake revision just to
be able to use --textconv or --filters.
Let's simplify this dramatically, because we do not really need that
revision at all: all we care about is that we know the path. In the
scenario described above, we do know the path, and we just want to
specify it separately from the object name.
Example usage:
git cat-file --textconv --path=main.c 0f1937fd

The --filters option applies the convert_to_working_tree() filter for
the path when showing the contents of a regular file blob object;
the contents are written out as-is for other types of objects.
This feature comes in handy when a 3rd-party tool wants to work with
the contents of files from past revisions as if they had been checked
out, but without detouring via temporary files.

This makes the style a little more consistent with other usage strings,
