When we want to write out a loose object file, we have
always first made sure we don't already have the object
somewhere. Since 33d4221 (write_sha1_file: freshen existing
objects, 2014-10-15), we also update the timestamp on the
file, so that a simultaneous prune knows somebody is
likely to reference it soon.
If our utime() call fails, we treat this the same as not
having the object in the first place; the safe thing to do
is write out another copy. However, the loose-object check
accidentally inverts the utime() check; it returns failure
_only_ when the utime() call actually succeeded. Thus it was
failing to protect us there, and in the normal case where
utime() succeeds, it caused us to pointlessly write out and
link the object.
This passed our freshening tests, because writing out the
new object is certainly _one_ way of updating its utime. So
the normal case was inefficient, but not wrong.
While we're here, let's also drop a comment in front of the
check_and_freshen functions, making a note of their return
type (since it is not our usual "0 for success, -1 for
error").

checkout: fix bug with --to and relative HEAD
Given "git checkout --to <path> HEAD~1", the new worktree's HEAD should
begin life at the current branch's HEAD~1, however, it actually ends up
at HEAD~2. This happens because:
1. git-checkout resolves HEAD~1
2. to satisfy is_git_directory(), prepare_linked_worktree() creates
a HEAD for the new worktree with the value of the resolved HEAD~1
3. git-checkout re-invokes itself with the same arguments within the
new worktree to populate the worktree
4. the sub git-checkout resolves HEAD~1 relative to its own HEAD,
which is the resolved HEAD~1 from the original invocation,
resulting unexpectedly and incorrectly in HEAD~2 (relative to the
original)
Fix this by unconditionally assigning the current worktree's HEAD as the
value of the new worktree's HEAD.
As a side-effect, this change also eliminates a dependence within
prepare_linked_checkout() upon 'struct branch_info'. The plan is to
eventually relocate "git checkout --to" functionality to "git worktree
add", and worktree.c won't have knowledge of 'struct branch_info', so

When c6458e60 (index-pack: kill union delta_base to save memory,

one of the key thing it did was to keep track of ref-deltas and

In fix_unresolved_deltas(), however it forgot that it now wants to
look only at ref deltas in one place. The code allocated an array
for nr_unresolved, which is sum of number of ref- and ofs-deltas
minus nr_resolved, which may be larger or smaller than the number
ref-deltas. Depending on nr_resolved, this was either under or over
allocating.
Also, the old code before this change had to use 'i' and 'n' because
some of the things we see in the (old) deltas[] array we scanned
with 'i' would not make it into the sorted_by_pos[] array in the old
world order, but now because you have only ref delta in a separate
ref_deltas[] array, they increment lock&step. We no longer need
separate variables. And most importantly, we shouldn't pass the

And wildcard can appear in extended sha-1 syntax, either as part of

case is less likely to happen in real world. But if you do ":/" a lot,

is missing) without scanning past the end of potentially not
NUL-terminated buffer.
But the theory forgot that in the older days, Git itself happily
created objects with only the header lines without a body. This
caused Git 2.2 and later to issue an unnecessary warning in some
existing repositories.
With a1e920a0, we do not need to require an empty line (or the body)
in these objects to safely parse and validate them. Drop the
offending "must have an empty line" check from this helper function,
while keeping the other check to make sure that there is no NUL in
the header part of the object, and adjust the name of the helper to
what it does accordingly.
