setup: make ref storage format configurable via config
Similar to the preceding commit, introduce a new "init.defaultRefFormat"
config that allows the user to globally set the ref storage format used
by newly created repositories.
Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
The object format for repositories can either be configured explicitly
by passing the `--object-format=` option to git-init(1) or git-clone(1),
or globally by setting the `GIT_DEFAULT_HASH` environment variable.
While the former makes sense, setting random environment variables is
not really a good user experience in case someone decides to only use
SHA256 repositories.
It is only natural to expect for a user that things like this can also
be configured via their config. As such, introduce a new config
"init.defaultObjectFormat", similar to "init.defaultBranch", that allows
the user to configure the default object format when creating new repos.
The precedence order now is the following, where the first one wins:
1. The `--object-format=` switch.
2. The `GIT_DEFAULT_HASH` environment variable.
3. The `init.defaultObjectFormat` config variable.
This matches the typical precedence order we use in Git. We typically
let the environment override the config such that the latter can easily
be overridden on an ephemeral basis, for example by scripts.
Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
The configuration of repository formats is split up across two functions
`validate_hash_algorithm()` and `validate_ref_storage_format()`. This is
fine as-is, but we are about to extend the logic to also read default
values from the config. With the logic split across two functions, we
would either have to pass in additional parameters read from the config,
or read the config multiple times. Both of these options feel a bit
unwieldy.
Merge the code into a new function `repository_format_configure()` that
is responsible for configuring the whole repository's format. Like this,
we can easily read the config in a single place, only.
Furthermore, move the calls to `repo_set_ref_storage_format()` and
`repo_set_hash_algo()` into this new function as well, such that all the
logic to configure the repository format is self-contained here.

This error comes from `git checkout --no-overlay $i_tree -- :/`, which
we execute to reset the working tree to the state in our index. As the
tree generated from the index is empty in our case, ':/' does not match
any files and thus causes git-checkout(1) to error out.
Fix the issue by skipping the checkout when the index tree is empty. As

run-command: fix detaching when running auto maintenance
In the past, we used to execute `git gc --auto` as part of our automatic
housekeeping routines. As git-gc(1) may require quite some time to
perform the housekeeping, it knows to detach itself and run in the
background so that the user can continue their work.
Eventually, we refactored our automatic housekeeping to instead use the
more flexible git-maintenance(1) command. The upside of this new infra
is that the user can configure which maintenance tasks are performed, at
least to a certain degree. So while it continues to run git-gc(1) by
default, it can also be adapted to e.g. use git-multi-pack-index(1) for
maintenance of the object database.
The auto-detach of the new infra is somewhat broken though once the user
configures non-standard tasks. The problem is essentially that we detach
at the wrong level in the process hierarchy: git-maintenance(1) never
detaches itself, but instead it continues to be git-gc(1) which does.
When configured to only run the git-gc(1) maintenance task, then the
result is basically the same as before. But when configured to run other
tasks, then git-maintenance(1) will wait for these to run to completion.
Even worse, it may be that git-gc(1) runs concurrently with other
housekeeping tasks, stomping on each others feet.
Fix this bug by asking git-gc(1) to not detach when it is being invoked
via git-maintenance(1). Instead, git-maintenance(1) now respects a new
config "maintenance.autoDetach", the equivalent of "gc.autoDetach", and
detaches itself into the background when running as part of our auto
maintenance. This should continue to behave the same for all users which
use the git-gc(1) task, only. For others though, it means that we now
properly perform all tasks in the background. The default behaviour of
git-maintenance(1) when executed by the user does not change, it will
remain in the foreground unless they pass the `--detach` option.

When running `git gc --auto`, the command will by default detach and
continue running in the background. This behaviour can be tweaked via
the `gc.autoDetach` config, but not via a command line switch. We need
that in a subsequent commit though, where git-maintenance(1) will want
to ask its git-gc(1) child process to not detach anymore.
Add a `--[no-]detach` flag that does this for us.
Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
When detaching, git-gc(1) will redirect its stderr to a "gc.log" log
file, which is then used to surface errors of a backgrounded process to
the user. To ensure that the file is properly managed on abnormal exit
paths, we install both signal and exit handlers that try to either
commit the underlying lock file or roll it back in case there wasn't any
error.
This logic is severly broken when handling signals though, as we end up
calling all kinds of functions that are not signal safe. This includes
malloc(3P) via `git_path()`, fprintf(3P), fflush(3P) and many more
functions. The consequence can be anything, from deadlocks to crashes.
Unfortunately, we cannot really do much about this without a larger
refactoring.
The least-worst thing we can do is to not set up the signal handler in
the first place. This will still cause us to remove the lockfile, as the
underlying tempfile subsystem already knows to unlink locks when
receiving a signal. But it may cause us to remove the lock even in the
case where it would have contained actual errors, which is a change in
behaviour.
The consequence is that "gc.log" will not be committed, and thus
subsequent calls to `git gc --auto` won't bail out because of this.
Arguably though, it is better to retry garbage collection rather than
having the process run into a potentially-corrupted state.

We're leaking config values in git-gc(1) when those values are tracked
as strings. Introduce a new `gc_config_release()` function that releases
this memory to plug those leaks and release old values before populating
the config fields via `git_config_string()` et al.
Note that there is one small gotcha here with the "--prune" option. Next
to passing a string, this option also accepts the "--no-prune" option
that overrides the default or configured value. We thus need to discern
between the option not having been passed by the user and the negative
variant of it. This is done by using a simple sentinel value that lets

pseudo-merge.c: ensure pseudo-merge groups are closed
When generating pseudo-merge bitmaps, it's possible that concurrent
reference updates may reveal some pseudo-merge candidates which reach
objects that are not contained in the bitmap's pack or pseudo-pack
order (in the case of MIDX bitmaps).
The latter case is relatively easy to demonstrate: if we generate a MIDX
bitmap with only half of the repository packed, then the unpacked
contents are not part of the MIDX's object order.
If we happen to select one or more commit(s) from the unpacked portion
of the repository for inclusion in a pseudo-merge, we'll get the
following message when trying to generate its bitmap:
$ git multi-pack-index write --bitmap
[...]
Selecting pseudo-merge commits: 100% (1/1), done.
warning: Failed to write bitmap index. Packfile doesn't have full closure (object ... is missing)
Building bitmaps: 50% (1/2), done.
error: could not write multi-pack bitmap
, and the attempted bitmap write will fail, leaving the repository
without a current bitmap.
Rectify this by ensuring that the commits which are pseudo-merge
candidates can only be so if they appear somewhere in the packing order.
This is sufficient, since we know that the original packing order is
closed under reachability, so if a commit appears in that list as a
potential pseudo-merge candidate, we know that everything reachable from
it also appears in the list (and thus the candidate is a good one).

pack-bitmap-write.c: select pseudo-merges even for small bitmaps
Ordinarily, the pack-bitmap machinery will select some subset of

commits indexed in the first place, they will all receive bitmaps as a
special case.
When this happens, pseudo-merges are not generated, making it impossible
to test pseudo-merge corner cases with fewer than 100 commits.
Select pseudo-merges even for bitmaps with fewer than 100 commits to

The to_pack field is provided to the bitmap machinery by callers of

t4129: fix racy index when calling chmod after git-add
This patch fixes a racy test failure in t4129.
The deletion test added by e95d515141 (apply: canonicalize modes read
from patches, 2024-08-05) wants to make sure that git-apply does not
complain about a non-canonical mode in the patch, even if that mode does
not match the working tree file. So it does this:
This is wrong, because running chmod will update the ctime on the file,
making it stat-dirty and causing git-apply to refuse to apply the patch.
But this only happens sometimes, since it depends on the timestamps
crossing a second boundary (but it triggers pretty quickly when run with
--stress).
We can fix this by doing the chmod before updating the index. The order
isn't important here, as the mode will be canonicalized to 100644 in the
index anyway (in fact, the chmod is not even that important in the first
place, since git-apply will only look at the index; I only added it as
an extra confirmation that git-apply would not be confused by it).

p1500: add is-base performance tests
The previous two changes introduced a commit walking heuristic for finding

This walk _should_ be very fast. Exceptions include cases where a
commit-graph file does not exist, leading to a full walk of all reachable
commits to compute generation numbers, or a case where no collision in the
first-parent history exists, leading to a walk of all first-parent history
to the root commits.
The p1500 test script guarantees a complete commit-graph file during its
setup, so we will not test that scenario. Do create a new root commit in an
effort to test the scenario of parallel first-parent histories.

for-each-ref: add 'is-base' token
The previous change introduced the get_branch_base_for_tip() method in
commit-reach.c. The motivation of that change was about using a heuristic to
deteremine the base branch for a source commit from a list of candidate
commit tips. This change makes that algorithm visible to users via a new
atom in the 'git for-each-ref' format. This change is very similar to the
chang in 49abcd21da6 (for-each-ref: add ahead-behind format atom,
2023-03-20).
Introduce the 'is-base:<source>' atom, which will indicate that the
algorithm should be computed and the result of the algorithm is reported
using an indicator of the form '(<source>)'. For example, using
'%(is-base:HEAD)' would result in one line having the token '(HEAD)'.
Use the sorted order of refs included in the ref filter to break ties in the
algorithm's heuristic. In the previous change, the motivating examples
include using an L0 trunk, long-lived L1 branches, and temporary release
branches. A caller could communicate the ordered preference among these
categories using the input refpecs and avoiding a different sort mechanism.
This sorting behavior is tested in the test scripts.
It is important to include this atom as a special case to
can_do_iterative_format() to match the expectations created in bd98f9774e1
(ref-filter.c: filter & format refs in the same callback, 2023-11-14). The
ahead-behind atom was one of the special cases, and this similarly requires
using an algorithm across all input refs before starting the format of any
single ref.

Git complaining about trailing whitespace errors.

commit-reach: add get_branch_base_for_tip
Add a new reachability algorithm that intends to discover (from a heuristic)
which branch was used as the starting point for a given commit. Add focused
tests using the 'test-tool reach' command.
In repositories that use pull requests (or merge requests) to advance one or
more "protected" branches, the history of that reference can be recovered by
following the first-parent history in most cases. Most are completed using
no-fast-forward merges, though squash merges are quite common. Less common
is rebase-and-merge, which still validates this assumption. Finally, the
case that breaks this assumption is the fast-forward update (with potential
rebasing). Even in this case, the previous commit commonly appears in the
first-parent history of the branch.
Similar assumptions can be made for a topic branch created by a single user
with the intention to merge back into another branch. Using 'git commit',
'git merge', and 'git cherry-pick' from HEAD will default to having the
first-parent commit be the previous commit at HEAD. This history changes
only with commands such as 'git reset' or 'git rebase', where the command
names also imply that the branch is starting from a new location.
With this movement of branches in mind, the following heuristic is proposed
as a way to determine the base branch for a given source branch:
Among a list of candidate base branches, select the candidate that
minimizes the number of commits in the first-parent history of the source
that are not in the first-parent history of the candidate.
Prior third-party solutions to this problem have used this optimization
criteria, but have relied upon extracting the first-parent history and
comparing those lists as tables instead of using commit-graph walks.
Given current command-line interface options, this optimization criteria is
not easy to detect directly. Even using the command
does not measure this count, as it uses full reachability from <base> to
determine which commits to remove from the range '<base>..<source>'. This
may lead to one asking if we should instead be using the full reachability
of the candidate and only the first-parent history of the source. This,
unfortunately, does not work for repositories that use long-lived branches
and automation to merge across those branches.
In extremely large repositories, merging into a single trunk may not be
feasible. This is usually due to the desired frequency of updates
(thousands of engineers doing daily work) combined with the time required to
perform a validation build. These factors combine to create significant
risk of semantic merge conflicts, leading to build breaks on the trunk. In
response, repository maintainers can create a single Level Zero (L0) trunk
and multiple Level One (L1) branches. By partitioning the engineers by
organization, these engineers may see lower risk of semantic merge conflicts
as well as be protected against build breaks in other L1 branches. The key
to making this system work is a semi-automated process of merging L1
branches into the L0 trunk and vice-versa. In a large enough organization,
these L1 branches may further split into L2 or L3 branches, but the same
principles apply for merging across deeper levels.
If these automated merges use a typical merge with the second parent
bringing in the "new" content, then each L0 and L1 branch can track its
previous positions by following first-parent history, which appear as
parallel paths (until reaching the first place where the branches diverged).
If we also walk to second parents, then the histories overlap significantly
and cannot be distinguished except for very-recent changes.
For this reason, the first-parent condition should be symmetrical across the
base and source branches.
Another common case for desiring the result of this optimization method is
the use of release branches. When releasing a version of a repository, a
branch can be used to track that release. Any updates that are worth fixing
in that release can be merged to the release branch and shipped with only
the necessary fixes without any new features introduced in the trunk branch.
The 'maint-2.<X>' branches represent this pattern in the Git project. The
microsoft/git fork uses 'vfs-2.<X>.<Y>' branches to track the changes that
are custom to that fork on top of each upstream Git release 2.<X>.<Y>. This
application doesn't need the symmetrical first-parent condition, but the use
of first-parent histories does not change the results for these branches.
To determine the base branch from a list of candidates, create a new method
in commit-reach.c that performs a single* commit-graph walk. The core
concept is to walk first-parents starting at the candidate bases and the
source, tracking the "best" base to reach a given commit. Use generation
numbers to ensure that a commit is walked at most once and all children have
been explored before visiting it. When reaching a commit that is reachable
from both a base and the source, we will then have a guarantee that this is
the closest intersection of first-parent histories. Track the best base to
reach that commit and return it as a result. In rare cases involving
multiple root commits, the first-parent history of the source may never
intersect any of the candidates and thus a null result is returned.
* There are up to two walks, since we require all commits to have a computed
generation number in order to avoid incorrect results. This is similar to
the need for computed generation numbers in ahead_behind() as implemented
in fd67d149bde (commit-reach: implement ahead_behind() logic, 2023-03-20).
In order to track the "best" base, use a new commit slab that stores an
integer. This value defaults to zero upon initialization, so use -1 to
track that the source commit can reach this commit and use 'i + 1' to track
that the ith base can reach this commit. When multiple bases can reach a
commit, minimize the index to break ties. This allows the caller to specify
an order to the bases that determines some amount of preference when the
heuristic does not result in a unique result.
The trickiest part of the integer slab is what happens when reaching a
collision among the histories of the bases and the history of the source.
This is noticed when viewing the first parent and seeing that it has a slab
value that differs in sign (negative or positive). In this case, the
collision commit is stored in the method variable 'branch_point' and its
slab value is set to -1. The index of the best base (so far) is stored in
the method variable 'best_index'. It is possible that there are multiple
commits that have the branch_point as its first parent, leading to multiple
updates of best_index. The result is determined when 'branch_point' is
visited in the commit walk, giving the guarantee that all commits that could
reach 'branch_point' were visited.
Several interesting cases of collisions and different results are tested in
the t6600-test-reach.sh script. Recall that this script also tests the
algorithm in three possible states involving the commit-graph file and how
many commits are written in the file. This provides some coverage of the
need (and lack of need) for the ensure_generations_valid() method.
