To derive the filename for a .idx file, 'git index-pack' uses
derive_filename() to strip the '.pack' suffix and add the new suffix.
Prepare for stripping off suffixes other than '.pack' by making the
suffix to strip a parameter of derive_filename(). In order to make this
consistent with the "suffix" parameter which does not begin with a ".",
an additional check in derive_filename.

pack-write.c: prepare to write 'pack-*.rev' files
This patch prepares for callers to be able to write reverse index files
to disk.
It adds the necessary machinery to write a format-compliant .rev file
from within 'write_rev_file()', which is called from
'finish_tmp_packfile()'.
Similar to the process by which the reverse index is computed in memory,
these new paths also have to sort a list of objects by their offsets
within a packfile. These new paths use a qsort() (as opposed to a radix
sort), since our specialized radix sort requires a full revindex_entry
struct per object, which is more memory than we need to allocate.
The qsort is obviously slower, but the theoretical slowdown would
require a repository with a large amount of objects, likely implying
that the time spent in, say, pack-objects during a repack would dominate
the overall runtime.

packfile: prepare for the existence of '*.rev' files
Specify the format of the on-disk reverse index 'pack-*.rev' file, as
well as prepare the code for the existence of such files.
The reverse index maps from pack relative positions (i.e., an index into
the array of object which is sorted by their offsets within the
packfile) to their position within the 'pack-*.idx' file. Today, this is
done by building up a list of (off_t, uint32_t) tuples for each object
(the off_t corresponding to that object's offset, and the uint32_t
corresponding to its position in the index). To convert between pack and
index position quickly, this array of tuples is radix sorted based on
its offset.
This has two major drawbacks:
First, the in-memory cost scales linearly with the number of objects in
a pack. Each 'struct revindex_entry' is sizeof(off_t) +
sizeof(uint32_t) + padding bytes for a total of 16.
To observe this, force Git to load the reverse index by, for e.g.,
running 'git cat-file --batch-check="%(objectsize:disk)"'. When asking
for a single object in a fresh clone of the kernel, Git needs to
allocate 120+ MB of memory in order to hold the reverse index in memory.
Second, the cost to sort also scales with the size of the pack.
Luckily, this is a linear function since 'load_pack_revindex()' uses a
radix sort, but this cost still must be paid once per pack per process.
As an example, it takes ~60x longer to print the _size_ of an object as
it does to print that entire object's _contents_:
Benchmark #1: git.compile cat-file --batch <obj
Time (mean ± σ): 3.4 ms ± 0.1 ms [User: 3.3 ms, System: 2.1 ms]
Range (min … max): 3.2 ms … 3.7 ms 726 runs
Benchmark #2: git.compile cat-file --batch-check="%(objectsize:disk)" <obj
Time (mean ± σ): 210.3 ms ± 8.9 ms [User: 188.2 ms, System: 23.2 ms]
Range (min … max): 193.7 ms … 224.4 ms 13 runs
Instead, avoid computing and sorting the revindex once per process by
writing it to a file when the pack itself is generated.
The format is relatively straightforward. It contains an array of
uint32_t's, the length of which is equal to the number of objects in the
pack. The ith entry in this table contains the index position of the
ith object in the pack, where "ith object in the pack" is determined by
pack offset.
One thing that the on-disk format does _not_ contain is the full (up to)
eight-byte offset corresponding to each object. This is something that
the in-memory revindex contains (it stores an off_t in 'struct
revindex_entry' along with the same uint32_t that the on-disk format
has). Omit it in the on-disk format, since knowing the index position
for some object is sufficient to get a constant-time lookup in the
pack-*.idx file to ask for an object's offset within the pack.
This trades off between the on-disk size of the 'pack-*.rev' file for
runtime to chase down the offset for some object. Even though the lookup
is constant time, the constant is heavier, since it can potentially
involve two pointer walks in v2 indexes (one to access the 4-byte offset
table, and potentially a second to access the double wide offset table).
Consider trying to map an object's pack offset to a relative position
within that pack. In a cold-cache scenario, more page faults occur while
switching between binary searching through the reverse index and
searching through the *.idx file for an object's offset. Sure enough,
with a cold cache (writing '3' into '/proc/sys/vm/drop_caches' after
'sync'ing), printing out the entire object's contents is still
marginally faster than printing its size:
Benchmark #1: git.compile cat-file --batch-check="%(objectsize:disk)" <obj >/dev/null
Time (mean ± σ): 22.6 ms ± 0.5 ms [User: 2.4 ms, System: 7.9 ms]
Range (min … max): 21.4 ms … 23.5 ms 41 runs
Benchmark #2: git.compile cat-file --batch <obj >/dev/null
Time (mean ± σ): 17.2 ms ± 0.7 ms [User: 2.8 ms, System: 5.5 ms]
Range (min … max): 15.6 ms … 18.2 ms 45 runs
(Numbers taken in the kernel after cheating and using the next patch to
generate a reverse index). There are a couple of approaches to improve
cold cache performance not pursued here:
- We could include the object offsets in the reverse index format.
Predictably, this does result in fewer page faults, but it triples
the size of the file, while simultaneously duplicating a ton of data
already available in the .idx file. (This was the original way I
implemented the format, and it did show
`--batch-check='%(objectsize:disk)'` winning out against `--batch`.)
On the other hand, this increase in size also results in a large
block-cache footprint, which could potentially hurt other workloads.
- We could store the mapping from pack to index position in more
cache-friendly way, like constructing a binary search tree from the
table and writing the values in breadth-first order. This would
result in much better locality, but the price you pay is trading
O(1) lookup in 'pack_pos_to_index()' for an O(log n) one (since you
can no longer directly index the table).
So, neither of these approaches are taken here. (Thankfully, the format
is versioned, so we are free to pursue these in the future.) But, cold
cache performance likely isn't interesting outside of one-off cases like
asking for the size of an object directly. In real-world usage, Git is
often performing many operations in the revindex (i.e., asking about
many objects rather than a single one).
The trade-off is worth it, since we will avoid the vast majority of the
cost of generating the revindex that the extra pointer chase will look
like noise in the following patch's benchmarks.
This patch describes the format and prepares callers (like in
pack-revindex.c) to be able to read *.rev files once they exist. An
implementation of the writer will appear in the next patch, and callers
will gradually begin to start using the writer in the patches that
follow after that.

config: allow specifying config entries via envvar pairs
While we currently have the `GIT_CONFIG_PARAMETERS` environment variable
which can be used to pass runtime configuration data to git processes,
it's an internal implementation detail and not supposed to be used by
end users.
Next to being for internal use only, this way of passing config entries
has a major downside: the config keys need to be parsed as they contain
both key and value in a single variable. As such, it is left to the user
to escape any potentially harmful characters in the value, which is
quite hard to do if values are controlled by a third party.
This commit thus adds a new way of adding config entries via the
environment which gets rid of this shortcoming. If the user passes the
`GIT_CONFIG_COUNT=$n` environment variable, Git will parse environment
variable pairs `GIT_CONFIG_KEY_$i` and `GIT_CONFIG_VALUE_$i` for each
`i` in `[0,n)`.
While the same can be achieved with `git -c <name>=<value>`, one may
wish to not do so for potentially sensitive information. E.g. if one
wants to set `http.extraHeader` to contain an authentication token,
doing so via `-c` would trivially leak those credentials via e.g. ps(1),
which typically also shows command arguments.

config: store "git -c" variables using more robust format
The previous commit added a new format for $GIT_CONFIG_PARAMETERS which
is able to robustly handle subsections with "=" in them. Let's start
writing the new format. Unfortunately, this does much less than you'd
hope, because "git -c" itself has the same ambiguity problem! But it's
still worth doing:
- we've now pushed the problem from the inter-process communication
into the "-c" command-line parser. This would free us up to later
add an unambiguous format there (e.g., separate arguments like "git
--config key value", etc).
- for --config-env, the parser already disallows "=" in the
environment variable name. So:
git --config-env section.with=equals.key=ENVVAR
will robustly set section.with=equals.key to the contents of
$ENVVAR.
The new test shows the improvement for --config-env.

config: parse more robust format in GIT_CONFIG_PARAMETERS
When we stuff config options into GIT_CONFIG_PARAMETERS, we shell-quote
each one as a single unit, like:
'section.one=value1' 'section.two=value2'
On the reading side, we de-quote to get the individual strings, and then
parse them by splitting on the first "=" we find. This format is
ambiguous, because an "=" may appear in a subsection. So the config
represented in a file by both:
[section "subsection=with=equals"]
key = value
and:
[section]
subsection = with=equals.key=value
ends up in this flattened format like:
'section.subsection=with=equals.key=value'
and we can't tell which was desired. We have traditionally resolved this
by taking the first "=" we see starting from the left, meaning that we
allowed arbitrary content in the value, but not in the subsection.
Let's make our environment format a bit more robust by separately
quoting the key and value. That turns those examples into:
'section.subsection=with=equals.key'='value'
and:
'section.subsection'='with=equals.key=value'
respectively, and we can tell the difference between them. We can detect
which format is in use for any given element of the list based on the
presence of the unquoted "=". That means we can continue to allow the
old format to work to support any callers which manually used the old
format, and we can even intermingle the two formats. The old format
wasn't documented, and nobody was supposed to be using it. But it's
likely that such callers exist in the wild, so it's nice if we can avoid
breaking them. Likewise, it may be possible to trigger an older version
of "git -c" that runs a script that calls into a newer version of "git
-c"; that new version would see the intermingled format.
This does create one complication, which is that the obvious format in
the new scheme for
[section]
some-bool
is:
'section.some-bool'
with no equals. We'd mistake that for an old-style variable. And it even
has the same meaning in the old style, but:
[section "with=equals"]
some-bool
does not. It would be:
'section.with=equals=some-bool'
which we'd take to mean:
[section]
with = equals=some-bool
in the old, ambiguous style. Likewise, we can't use:
'section.some-bool'=''
because that's ambiguous with an actual empty string. Instead, we'll
again use the shell-quoting to give us a hint, and use:
'section.some-bool'=
to show that we have no value.
Note that this commit just expands the reading side. We'll start writing
the new format via "git -c" in a future patch. In the meantime, the
existing "git -c" tests will make sure we didn't break reading the old
format. But we'll also add some explicit coverage of the two formats to
make sure we continue to handle the old one after we move the writing
side over.
And one final note: since we're now using the shell-quoting as a
semantically meaningful hint, this closes the door to us ever allowing
arbitrary shell quoting, like:
'a'shell'would'be'ok'with'this'.key=value
But we have never supported that (only what sq_quote() would produce),
and we are probably better off keeping things simple, robust, and
backwards-compatible, than trying to make it easier for humans. We'll
continue not to advertise the format of the variable to users, and
instead keep "git -c" as the recommended mechanism for setting config

Now that all 'find_revindex_position()' callers have been removed (and

safe to get rid of 'find_revindex_position()' entirely. Almost, except
for the fact that 'offset_to_pack_pos()' calls
'find_revindex_position()'.
Inline 'find_revindex_position()' into 'offset_to_pack_pos()', and
then remove 'find_revindex_position()' entirely.
This is a straightforward refactoring with one minor snag.
'offset_to_pack_pos()' used to load the index before calling
'find_revindex_position()'. That means that by the time
'find_revindex_position()' starts executing, 'p->num_objects' can be
safely read. After inlining, be careful to not read 'p->num_objects'

pack-revindex: introduce a new API
In the next several patches, we will prepare for loading a reverse index
either in memory (mapping the inverse of the .idx's contents in-core),
or directly from a yet-to-be-introduced on-disk format. To prepare for
that, we'll introduce an API that avoids the caller explicitly indexing
the revindex pointer in the packed_git structure.
There are four ways to interact with the reverse index. Accordingly,
four functions will be exported from 'pack-revindex.h' by the time that
the existing API is removed. A caller may:
1. Load the pack's reverse index. This involves opening up the index,
generating an array, and then sorting it. Since opening the index
can fail, this function ('load_pack_revindex()') returns an int.
Accordingly, it takes only a single argument: the 'struct
packed_git' the caller wants to build a reverse index for.
This function is well-suited for both the current and new API.
Callers will have to continue to open the reverse index explicitly,
but this function will eventually learn how to detect and load a
reverse index from the on-disk format, if one exists. Otherwise, it
will fallback to generating one in memory from scratch.
2. Convert a pack position into an offset. This operation is now
called `pack_pos_to_offset()`. It takes a pack and a position, and
returns the corresponding off_t.
Any error simply calls BUG(), since the callers are not well-suited
to handle a failure and keep going.
3. Convert a pack position into an index position. Same as above; this
takes a pack and a position, and returns a uint32_t. This operation
is known as `pack_pos_to_index()`. The same thinking about error
conditions applies here as well.
4. Find the pack position for a given offset. This operation is now
known as `offset_to_pack_pos()`. It takes a pack, an offset, and a
pointer to a uint32_t where the position is written, if an object
exists at that offset. Otherwise, -1 is returned to indicate
failure.
Unlike some of the callers that used to access '->offset' and '->nr'
directly, the error checking around this call is somewhat more
robust. This is important since callers should always pass an offset
which points at the boundary of two objects. The API, unlike direct
access, enforces that that is the case.
This will become important in a subsequent patch where a caller
which does not but could check the return value treats the signed
`-1` from `find_revindex_position()` as an index into the 'revindex'
array.
Two design warts are carried over into the new API:
- Asking for the index position of an out-of-bounds object will result
in a BUG() (since no such object exists), but asking for the offset
of the non-existent object at the end of the pack returns the total
size of the pack.
This makes it convenient for callers who always want to take the
difference of two adjacent object's offsets (to compute the on-disk
size) but don't want to worry about boundaries at the end of the
pack.
- offset_to_pack_pos() lazily loads the reverse index, but
pack_pos_to_index() doesn't (callers of the former are well-suited
to handle errors, but callers of the latter are not).

Remove support for the magical "repo-abbrev" comment in .mailmap
files. This was added to .mailmap parsing in [1], as a generalized
feature of the git-shortlog Perl script added earlier in [2].
There was no documentation or tests for this feature, and I don't
think it's used in practice anymore.
What it did was to allow you to specify a single string to be
search-replaced with "/.../" in the .mailmap file. E.g. for
linux.git's current .mailmap:
git archive --remote=git@gitlab.com:linux-kernel/linux.git \
HEAD -- .mailmap | grep -a repo-abbrev
# repo-abbrev: /pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/
Merge tag [...]git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
I think at this point this is just a historical artifact we can get
rid of. It was initially meant for Linus's own use when we integrated
the Perl script[2], but since then it seems he's stopped using it.
Digging through Linus's release announcements on the LKML[3] the last
release I can find that made use of this output is Linux 2.6.25-rc6
back in March 2008[4]. Later on Linus started using --no-merges[5],
and nowadays seems to prefer some custom not-quite-shortlog format of
merges from lieutenants[6].
You will still see it on linux.git if you run "git shortlog" manually
yourself with --merges, with this removed you can still get the same
output with:
git log --pretty=fuller v5.10-rc7..v5.10 |
sed 's!/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/!/.../!g' |
git shortlog
Arguably we should do the same for the search-replacing of "[PATCH]"
at the beginning with "". That seems to be another relic of a bygone
era when linux.git patches would have their E-Mail subject lines
applied as-is by "git am" or whatever. But we documented that feature
in "git-shortlog(1)", and it seems more widely applicable than
something purely kernel-specific.
