upload-pack.c: increase output buffer size
When serving a fetch, git upload-pack copies data from a git
pack-objects stdout pipe to its stdout. This commit increases the size
of the buffer used for that copying from 8192 to 65515, the maximum
sideband-64k packet size.
Previously, this buffer was allocated on the stack. Because the new
buffer size is nearly 64KB, we switch this to a heap allocation.
On GitLab.com we use GitLab's pack-objects cache which does writes of
65515 bytes. Because of the default 8KB buffer size, propagating these
cache writes requires 8 pipe reads and 8 pipe writes from
git-upload-pack, and 8 pipe reads from Gitaly (our Git RPC service).
If we increase the size of the buffer to the maximum Git packet size,
we need only 1 pipe read and 1 pipe write in git-upload-pack, and 1
pipe read in Gitaly to transfer the same amount of data. In benchmarks
with a pure fetch and 100% cache hit rate workload we are seeing CPU
utilization reductions of over 30%.

unpack-trees: use traverse_path instead of name
The sparse_dir_matches_path() method compares a cache entry that is a
sparse directory entry against a 'struct traverse_info *info' and a
'struct name_entry *p' to see if the cache entry has exactly the right
name for those other inputs.
This method was introduced in 523506d (unpack-trees: unpack sparse
directory entries, 2021-07-14), but included a significant mistake. The
path comparisons used 'info->name' instead of 'info->traverse_path'.
Since 'info->name' only stores a single tree entry name while
'info->traverse_path' stores the full path from root, this method does
not work when 'info' is in a subdirectory of a directory. Replacing the
right strings and their corresponding lengths make the method work
properly.
The previous change included a failing test that exposes this issue.
That test now passes. The critical detail is that as we go deep into
unpack_trees(), the logic for merging a sparse directory entry with a
tree entry during 'git checkout' relies on this
sparse_dir_matches_path() in order to avoid calling
traverse_trees_recursive() during unpack_callback() in this hunk:
For deep paths, the short-circuit never occurred and
traverse_trees_recursive() was being called incorrectly and that was
causing other strange issues. Specifically, the error message from the
now-passing test previously included this:
error: Your local changes to the following files would be overwritten by checkout:
deep/deeper1/deepest2/a
deep/deeper1/deepest3/a
Please commit your changes or stash them before you switch branches.
Aborting
These messages occurred because the 'current' cache entry in
twoway_merge() was showing as NULL because the index did not contain
entries for the paths contained within the sparse directory entries. We
instead had 'oldtree' given as the entry at HEAD and 'newtree' as the
entry in the target tree. This led to reject_merge() listing these
paths.
Now that sparse_dir_matches_path() works the same for deep paths as it
does for shallow depths, the rest of the logic kicks in to properly
handle modifying the sparse directory entries as designed.

worktree: send "chatty" messages to stderr
The order in which the stdout and stderr streams are flushed is not
guaranteed to be the same across platforms or `libc` implementations.
This lack of determinism can lead to anomalous and potentially confusing
output if normal (stdout) output is flushed after error (stderr) output.
For instance, the following output which clearly indicates a failure due
to a fatal error:
% git worktree add ../foo bar
Preparing worktree (checking out 'bar')
fatal: 'bar' is already checked out at '.../wherever'
has been reported[1] on Microsoft Windows to appear as:
% git worktree add ../foo bar
fatal: 'bar' is already checked out at '.../wherever'
Preparing worktree (checking out 'bar')
which may confuse the reader into thinking that the command somehow
recovered and ran to completion despite the error.
This problem crops up because the "chatty" status message "Preparing
worktree" is sent to stdout, whereas the "fatal" error message is sent
to stderr. One way to fix this would be to flush stdout manually before
git-worktree reports any errors to stderr.
However, common practice in Git is for "chatty" messages to be sent to
stderr. Therefore, a more appropriate fix is to adjust git-worktree to
conform to that practice by sending its "chatty" messages to stderr
rather than stdout as is currently the case.
There may be concern that relocating messages from stdout to stderr
could break existing tooling, however, these messages are already
internationalized, thus are unstable. And, indeed, the "Preparing
worktree" message has already been the subject of somewhat significant
changes in 2c27002a0a (worktree: improve message when creating a new
worktree, 2018-04-24). Moreover, there is existing precedent, such as 68b939b2f0 (clone: send diagnostic messages to stderr, 2013-09-18) which
likewise relocated "chatty" messages from stdout to stderr for
git-clone.

That way, (1) the current tests can be updated to use the test

files, and perform the same inspection for correctness, and (2)
when the ref backend is swapped to another backend, the updated

git-compat-util: add a test balloon for C99 support
The C99 standard was released in January 1999, now 22 years ago. It
provides a variety of useful features, including variadic arguments for
macros, declarations after statements, designated initializers, and a
wide variety of other useful features, many of which we already use.
We'd like to take advantage of these features, but we want to be
cautious. As far as we know, all major compilers now support C99 or a
later C standard, such as C11 or C17. POSIX has required C99 support as
a requirement for the 2001 revision, so we can safely assume any POSIX
system which we are interested in supporting has C99.
Even MSVC, long a holdout against modern C, now supports both C11 and
C17 with an appropriate update. Moreover, even if people are using an
older version of MSVC on these systems, they will generally need some
implementation of the standard Unix utilities for the testsuite, and GNU
coreutils, the most common option, has required C99 since 2009.
Therefore, we can safely assume that a suitable version of GCC or clang
is available to users even if their version of MSVC is not sufficiently
capable.
Let's add a test balloon to git-compat-util.h to see if anyone is using
an older compiler. We'll add a comment telling people how to enable
this functionality on GCC and Clang, even though modern versions of both
will automatically do the right thing, and ask people still experiencing
a problem to report that to us on the list.
Note that C89 compilers don't provide the __STDC_VERSION__ macro, so we
use a well-known hack of using "- 0". On compilers with this macro, it
doesn't change the value, and on C89 compilers, the macro will be
replaced with nothing, and our value will be 0.
For sparse, we explicitly request the gnu99 style because we've
traditionally taken advantage of some GCC- and clang-specific extensions
when available and we'd like to retain the ability to do that. sparse
also defaults to C89 without it, so things will fail for us if we don't.
Update the cmake configuration to require C11 for MSVC. We do this
because this will make MSVC to use C11, since it does not explicitly
support C99. We do this with a compiler options because setting the
C_STANDARD option does not work in our CI on MSVC and at the moment, we
don't want to require C11 for Unix compilers.
In the Makefile, don't set any compiler flags for the compiler itself,
since on some systems, such as FreeBSD, we actually need C11, and asking
for C99 causes things to fail to compile. The error message should make
it obvious what's going wrong and allow a user to set the appropriate
option when building in the event they're using a Unix compiler that
doesn't support it by default.

xdiff: implement a zealous diff3, or "zdiff3"
"zdiff3" is identical to ordinary diff3 except that it allows compaction
of common lines on the two sides of history at the beginning or end of
the conflict hunk. For example, the following diff3 conflict:
1
2
3
4
<<<<<<
A
B
C
D
E
||||||
5
6
======
A
X
C
Y
E
>>>>>>
7
8
9
has common lines 'A', 'C', and 'E' on the two sides. With zdiff3, one
would instead get the following conflict:
1
2
3
4
A
<<<<<<
B
C
D
||||||
5
6
======
X
C
Y
>>>>>>
E
7
8
9
Note that the common lines, 'A', and 'E' were moved outside the
conflict. Unlike with the two-way conflicts from the 'merge'
conflictStyle, the zdiff3 conflict is NOT split into multiple conflict
regions to allow the common 'C' lines to be shown outside a conflict,
because zdiff3 shows the base version too and the base version cannot be
reasonably split.
Note also that the removing of lines common to the two sides might make
the remaining text inside the conflict region match the base text inside
the conflict region (for example, if the diff3 conflict had '5 6 E' on
the right side of the conflict, then the common line 'E' would be moved
outside and both the base and right side's remaining conflict text would
be the lines '5' and '6'). This has the potential to surprise users and
make them think there should not have been a conflict, but there
definitely was a conflict and it should remain.

sequencer: avoid adding exec commands for non-commit creating commands
The `--exec <cmd>` is documented as
Append "exec <cmd>" after each line creating a commit in the final
history.
...
If --autosquash is used, "exec" lines will not be appended for the
intermediate commits, and will only appear at the end of each
squash/fixup series.
Unfortunately, it would also add exec commands after non-pick
operations, such as 'no-op', which could be seen for example with
git rebase -i --exec true HEAD
todo_list_add_exec_commands() intent was to insert exec commands after
each logical pick, while trying to consider a chains of fixup and squash
commits to be part of the pick before it. So it would keep an 'insert'
boolean tracking if it had seen a pick or merge, but not write the exec
command until it saw the next non-fixup/squash command. Since that
would make it miss the final exec command, it had some code that would
check whether it still needed to insert one at the end, but instead of a
simple
if (insert)
it had a
if (insert || <condition that is always true>)
That's buggy; as per the docs, we should only add exec commands for
lines that create commits, i.e. only if insert is true. Fix the
conditional.
There was one testcase in the testsuite that we tweak for this change;
it was introduced in 54fd3243da ("rebase -i: reread the todo list if
`exec` touched it", 2017-04-26), and was merely testing that after an
exec had fired that the todo list would be re-read. The test at the
time would have worked given any revision at all, though it would only
work with 'HEAD' as a side-effect of this bug. Since we're fixing this
bug, choose something other than 'HEAD' for that test.
Finally, add a testcase that verifies when we have no commits to pick,
that we get no exec lines in the generated todo list.
