During git-receive-pack(1), connectivity of the object graph is
validated to ensure that the received packfile does not leave the
repository in a broken state. This is done via git-rev-list(1) and
walking the objects, which can be expensive for large repositories.
Generally, this check is critical to avoid an incomplete received
packfile from corrupting a repository. Server operators may have
additional knowledge though around exactly how Git is being used on the
server-side which can be used to facilitate more efficient connectivity
computation of incoming objects.
For example, if it can be ensured that all objects in a repository are
connected and do not depend on any missing objects, the connectivity of
newly written objects can be checked by walking the object graph
containing only the new objects from the updated tips and identifying
the missing objects which represent the boundary between the new objects
and the repository. These boundary objects can be checked in the
canonical repository to ensure the new objects connect as expected and
thus avoid walking the rest of the object graph.
Git itself cannot make the guarantees required for such an optimization
as it is possible for a repository to contain an unreachable object that
references a missing object without the repository being considered
corrupt.
Introduce the --skip-connectivity-check option for git-receive-pack(1)
which bypasses this connectivity check to give more control to the
server-side. Note that without proper server-side validation of newly
received objects handled outside of Git, usage of this option risks
corrupting a repository.

Commit f5e3c6c57d ("meson: do a full usage-based compile check for
sysinfo", 2025-04-25) updated the 'sysinfo()' check, as part of the
meson build, due to the failure of the check on Solaris. Prior to
that commit, the meson build only checked the availability of the
'<sys/sysinfo.h>' header file. On Solaris, both the header and the
'sysinfo()' function exist, but are completely unrelated to the same
function on Linux (and cygwin).
Commit 50dec7c566 ("config.mak.uname: add sysinfo() configuration for
cygwin", 2025-04-17) added a similar 'sysinfo()' check to the autoconf
build. This check looked for the 'sysinfo()' function itself, rather
than just the header, but it will fail (incorrectly set HAVE_SYSINFO)
for the same reason.
In order to correctly identify the 'sysinfo()' function we require as
part of 'git-gc' (used in the 'total_ram() function), we also upgrade
to a compilation check, in a similar way to the meson commit. Note that
since commit c9a51775a3 ("builtin/gc.c: correct RAM calculation when
using sysinfo", 2025-04-17) both the 'totalram' and 'mem_unit' fields
of the 'struct sysinfo' are used, so the new check includes both of
those fields in the compile check.

For the non-'runtime prefix' case, the meson build sets the GIT_EXEC_PATH
build variable to an absolute path equivalent to <prefix>/libexec/git-core.
In comparison, the default make build sets it to a relative path equivalent
to 'libexec/git-core'. Indeed, the make build requires the use of some
means outside of the Makefile (eg. config.mak[.*] or the command-line)
to set GIT_EXEC_PATH to anything other than 'libexec/git-core'.
For example, the make invocation:
$ make gitexecdir=/some/other/bin all install
will build git with GIT_EXEC_PATH set to '/some/other/bin' and install
the 'library' executables to that location. However, without setting the
'gitexecdir' make variable, irrespective of the 'runtime prefix' setting,
the GIT_EXEC_PATH is always set to 'libexec/git-core'.
The meson built-in 'libexecdir' option can be used to provide a similar
configurability. The default value for the option is 'libexec'. Attempting
to set the option to '' on the command-line, will reset it to the '.'
string, presumably to ensure a relative path value.
This commit allows the meson build, similar to the above, to configure the
project like:
$ meson setup --buildtype=debugoptimized -Dprefix=$HOME -Dpcre2=disabled \
-Dlibexecdir=/some/other/bin build
so that the GIT_EXEC_PATH is set to '/some/other/bin'. Absent the
-Dlibexecdir argument, the GIT_EXEC_PATH is set to 'libexec/git-core'.
In order to correct the value of GIT_EXEC_PATH, default the value to the
static string value 'libexec/git-core', and only override if the value
of the 'libexecdir' option has a value different to 'libexec' or '.'.
Also, like the Makefile, add a check for an absolute path when the
runtime prefix option is true (and if so, error out).

The path to the system-wide config and attributes files are not being
set correctly in the meson build. Unless explicitly overridden on the
command line during setup, the 'gitconfig' and 'gitattributes' options
are defaulting to absolute paths in the '/etc' system directory. This
is only appropriate if the <prefix> is set specifically to '/usr'.
The directory in which these files are placed is generally referred to
as the 'system configuration directory' or 'sysconfdir' for short. When
the prefix is '/usr' then the sysconfdir is usually set to '/etc', but
any other value for prefix results in the relative directory value 'etc'
instead. (eg if prefix is '/usr/local', then the 'etc' relative value
results in a system configuration directory of '/usr/local/etc'). When
setting the 'sysconfdir' builtin option value, the meson system uses
exactly this algorithm, so we can use get_option('sysconfdir') directly
when setting the (non-overridden) build variables.
In order to allow for overriding from the command line, remove the
default values specified for the 'gitconfig' and 'gitattributes' options
in the 'meson_options.txt' file. This allows the user to specify any
pathname for those options, while being able to test for the unset
(empty) value. An absolute pathname will be used unchanged and a relative
pathname will be appended to '<prefix>/'. These values are then used to
set the 'ETC_GITCONFIG' and 'ETC_GITATTRIBUTES' build variables which are,
in turn, passed to the compiler as '-D' arguments.
When the 'gitconfig' or 'gitattributes' options are not used, then use
the built-in 'sysconfdir' and set the ETC_GITCONFIG build variable to
the string "<sysconfdir>/gitconfig". Similarly, set ETC_ATTRIBUTES to
"<sysconfdir>/gitattributes".

Since 13cb20fc46 ("meson: fix compilation with Visual Studio",
2025-01-22) it has not been possible to list build options via `meson
configure`. This is due to Meson's static analysis of build options
failing to handle constant folding, and thinking we set a totally
invalid default `-std=`.
This is reported upstream but we anyways need to work with existing
versions. It turns out there is a simple solution: turn the entire
default option into a conditional branch, which means Meson sees either
nothing, or everything.
As a result, Git users can once again see pretty-printed options before
building.
