Right now, we have a way to print the storage hash, the input hash, and
the output hash, but we lack a way to print the compatibility hash. Add
a new type to --show-object-format, compat, which prints this value.
If no compatibility hash exists, simply print a newline. This is
important to allow users to use multiple options at once while still
getting unambiguous output.

docs: improve ambiguous areas of pack format documentation
It is fair to say that our pack and indexing code is quite complex.
Contributors who wish to work on this code or implementors of other
implementations would benefit from clear, unambiguous documentation
about how our data formats are structured and encoded and what data is
used in the computation of certain values. Unfortunately, some of this
data is missing, which leads to confusion and frustration.
Let's document some of this data to help clarify things. Specify over
what data CRC32 values are computed and also note which CRC32 algorithm
is used, since Wikipedia mentions at least four 32-bit CRC algorithms
and notes that it's possible to use different bit orderings.
In addition, note how we encode objects in the pack. One might be led
to believe that packed objects are always stored with the "<type>
<size>\0" prefix of loose objects, but that is not the case, although
for obvious reasons this data is included in the computation of the
object ID. Explain why this is for the curious reader.
Finally, indicate what the size field of the packed object represents.
Otherwise, a reader might think that the size of a delta is the size of
the full object or that it might contain the offset or object ID,
neither of which are the case. Explain clearly, however, that the
values represent uncompressed sizes to avoid confusion.

The documentation for the hash function transition reflects the original
design where the SHA-256 signature would always be placed in a header.
However, due to a missed patch in Git 2.29, we shipped SHA-256 support
such that the signature for the current algorithm is always an in-body
signature and the opposite algorithm is always in a header. Since the
documentation is inaccurate, update it to reflect the correct
information.

The current design of pack index v3 has items in two different orders:
sorted shortened object ID order and pack order. The shortened object
IDs and the pack index offset values are in the former order and
everything else is in the latter.
This, however, poses some problems. We have many parts of the packfile
code that expect to find out data about an object knowing only its index
in pack order. With the current design, to find the pack offset after
having looked up the index in pack order, we must then look up the full
object ID and use that to look up the shortened object ID to find the
pack offset, which is inconvenient, inefficient, and leads to poor cache
usage.
Instead, let's change the offset values to be looked up by pack order.
This works better because once we know the pack order offset, we can
find the full object name and its location in the pack with a simple
index into their respective tables. This makes many operations much
more efficient, especially with the functions we already have, and it
avoids the need for the revindex with pack index v3.

Our current pack index v3 format uses 4-byte integers to find the
trailer of the file. This effectively means that the file cannot be
much larger than 2^32. While this might at first seem to be okay, we
expect that each object will have at least 64 bytes worth of data, which
means that no more than about 67 million objects can be stored.
Again, this might seem fine, but unfortunately, we know of many users
who attempt to create repos with extremely large numbers of commits to
get a "high score," and we've already seen repositories with at least 55
million commits. In the interests of gracefully handling repositories
even for these well-intentioned but ultimately misguided users, let's
change these lengths to 8 bytes.
For the checksums at the end of the file, we're producing 32-byte
SHA-256 checksums because that's what we already do with pack index v2
and SHA-256. Truncating SHA-256 doesn't pose any actual security
problems other than those related to the reduced size, but our pack
checksum must already be 32 bytes (since SHA-256 packs have 32-byte
checksums) and it simplifies the code to use the existing hashfile logic
for these cases for the index checksum as well.
In addition, even though we may not need cryptographic security for the
index checksum, we'd like to avoid arguments from auditors and such for
organizations that may have compliance or security requirements. Using
the simple, boring choice of the full SHA-256 hash avoids all possible
discussion related to hash truncation and removes impediments for these
organizations.
Note that we do not yet have a pack index v3 implementation in Git, so
it should be fine to change this format. However, such an
implementation has been written for future inclusion following this
format.

remote: bail early from set_head() if missing remote name
In "git remote set-head", we can take varying numbers of arguments
depending on whether we saw the "-d" or "-a" options. But the first
argument is always the remote name.
The current code is somewhat awkward in that it conditionally handles
the remote name up-front like this:
if (argc)
remote = ...from argv[0]...
and then only later decides to bail if we do not have the right number
of arguments for the options we saw.
This makes it hard to figure out if "remote" is always set when it needs
to be. Both for humans, but also for compilers; with -Og, gcc complains
that "remote" can be accessed without being initialized (although this
is not true, as we'd always die with a usage message in that case).
Let's instead enforce the presence of the remote argument up front,
which fixes the compiler warning and is easier to understand. It does
mean duplicating the code to print a usage message, but it's a single
line.

archive: flush deflate stream until Z_STREAM_END
In `archive-zip.c:write_zip_entry()` when using a stream as input for
deflating a file, the call to `git_deflate()` with Z_FINISH always
expects Z_STREAM_END to be returned. Per zlib documentation[1]:
If the parameter flush is set to Z_FINISH, pending input is
processed, pending output is flushed and deflate returns with
Z_STREAM_END if there was enough output space. If deflate
returns with Z_OK or Z_BUF_ERROR, this function must be called
again with Z_FINISH and more output space (updated avail_out)
but no more input data, until it returns with Z_STREAM_END or an
error. After deflate has returned Z_STREAM_END, the only
possible operations on the stream are deflateReset or
deflateEnd.
In scenarios where the output buffer is not large enough to write all
the compressed data, it is perfectly valid for the underlying
`deflate()` to return Z_OK. Thus, expecting a single pass of `deflate()`
here to always return Z_STREAM_END is a bug. Update the code to flush
the deflate stream until Z_STREAM_END is returned.

revert: initialize const value
When building with clang-22 and DEVELOPER=1 mode, this warning causes us
to fail compilation:
builtin/revert.c:114:13: error: default initialization of an object of type 'const char' leaves the object uninitialized [-Werror,-Wdefault-const-init-var-unsafe]
114 | const char sentinel_value;
| ^
The compiler is right that this code is a bit funny. We declare a const
value without an initializer. It cannot be assigned to because of the
const, but without an initializer it has no predictable value. So as a
variable it can never have any useful function, and if we tried to look
at it, we'd get undefined behavior.
But it does have a function. We never use its value, but rather use its
address as a sentinel value for some other variables:
const char *gpg_sign = &sentinel_value;
...maybe set gpg_sign via parse_options...
if (gpg_sign != &sentinel_value)
...we got a non-default value...
Normally we'd use NULL as a sentinel value for a pointer, but it doesn't
work here because we also want to detect --no-gpg-sign, which is marked
by setting the pointer to NULL. We need a separate "this was not
touched" value, which is what this sentinel variable gives us.
So the code is correct as-is, but the sentinel variable itself is funny
enough that it's understandable for a compiler warning to flag it. Let's
try to appease the compiler.
There are a few possible options:
1. Instead of a variable, we could just construct an artificial
sentinel address like "1", "-1", etc. I think these technically
fall afoul of the C standard (even if we do not access them, even
constructing invalid pointers is not always allowed). But it's also
something we do elsewhere, and even happens in some standard
interfaces (e.g., mmap()'s MMAP_FAILED value). It does involve some
annoying casts, though.
2. We can mark it as static. That gives it a definite value, but
perhaps makes people wonder if the static-ness is important, when
it's not.
3. We can just give it a value to shut the compiler up, even though
nobody cares about that value.
I went with (3) here as the smallest and most obvious change.

meson: tolerate errors from git ls-files --deduplicate
When using the Meson build system with versions of Git before 2.31,
that does not yet know the `git ls-files --deduplicate` option, one
can observe the following error:
The failing command is used to find all header files in our code
base, which is required for static analysis.
Static analysis is an entirely optional feature that distributors
typically don't care about, and we already know to skip running the
command when we are not in a Git repository. But we do not handle
the above failure gracefully, even though we could.
Fix this by passing `check: false` to `run_command`, which makes it
tolerate failures. Then check `returncode()` manually to decide
whether to inspect the output.

6e411d20440 (Initial draft of fast-import documentation., 2007-02-05)
pointed out how much time a fast-import took on some hardware with a
specific cost. Let’s further point out that this experiment was done
in 2007. So modern hardware should have no issues with such a repo.
Also move the parenthetical to the end now that it contains four words.

CodingGuidelines: clarify that S_release() does not reinitialize
In the section for naming various API functions, the fact that
S_release() only releases the resources without preparing the
structure for immediate reuse becomes only apparent when you
readentries for S_release() and S_clear().
Clarify the description of S_release() a bit to make the entry self
sufficient.
