The core.repositoryFormatVersion field was introduced in ab9cb76f661
(Repository format version check., 2005-11-25), providing a welcome
bit of forward compatibility, thanks to some welcome analysis by
Martin Atukunda. The semantics are simple: a repository with
core.repositoryFormatVersion set to 0 should be comprehensible by all
Git implementations in active use; and Git implementations should
error out early instead of trying to act on Git repositories with
higher core.repositoryFormatVersion values representing new formats
that they do not understand.
A new repository format did not need to be defined until 00a09d57eb8
(introduce "extensions" form of core.repositoryformatversion,
2015-06-23). This provided a finer-grained extension mechanism for
Git repositories. In a repository with core.repositoryFormatVersion
set to 1, Git implementations can act on "extensions.*" settings that
modify how a repository is interpreted. In repository format version
1, unrecognized extensions settings cause Git to error out.
What happens if a user sets an extension setting but forgets to
increase the repository format version to 1? The extension settings
were still recognized in that case; worse, unrecognized extensions
settings do *not* cause Git to error out. So combining repository
format version 0 with extensions settings produces in some sense the
worst of both worlds.
To improve that situation, since 14c7fa269e4
(check_repository_format_gently(): refuse extensions for old
repositories, 2020-06-05) Git instead ignores extensions in v0 mode.
This way, v0 repositories get the historical (pre-2015) behavior and
maintain compatibility with Git implementations that do not know about
the v1 format. Unfortunately, users had been using this sort of
configuration and this behavior change came to many as a surprise:
- users of "git config --worktree" that had followed its advice
to enable extensions.worktreeConfig (without also increasing the
repository format version) would find their worktree configuration
no longer taking effect
- tools such as copybara[*] that had set extensions.partialClone in
existing repositories (without also increasing the repository format
version) would find that setting no longer taking effect
The behavior introduced in 14c7fa269e4 might be a good behavior if we
were traveling back in time to 2015, but we're far too late. For some
reason I thought that it was what had been originally implemented and
that it had regressed. Apologies for not doing my research when 14c7fa269e4 was under development.
Let's return to the behavior we've had since 2015: always act on
extensions.* settings, regardless of repository format version. While
we're here, include some tests to describe the effect on the "upgrade
repository version" code path.

experimental: default to fetch.writeCommitGraph=false
The fetch.writeCommitGraph feature makes fetches write out a commit
graph file for the newly downloaded pack on fetch. This improves the
performance of various commands that would perform a revision walk and
eventually ought to be the default for everyone. To prepare for that
future, it's enabled by default for users that set
feature.experimental=true to experience such future defaults.
Alas, for --unshallow fetches from a shallow clone it runs into a
snag: by the time Git has fetched the new objects and is writing a
commit graph, it has performed a revision walk and r->parsed_objects
contains information about the shallow boundary from *before* the
fetch. The commit graph writing code is careful to avoid writing a
commit graph file in shallow repositories, but the new state is not
shallow, and the result is that from that point on, commands like "git
log" make use of a newly written commit graph file representing a
fictional history with the old shallow boundary.
We could fix this by making the commit graph writing code more careful
to avoid writing a commit graph that could have used any grafts or
shallow state, but it is possible that there are other pieces of
mutated state that fetch's commit graph writing code may be relying
on. So disable it in the feature.experimental configuration.
Google developers have been running in this configuration (by setting
fetch.writeCommitGraph=false in the system config) to work around this
bug since it was discovered in April. Once the fix lands, we'll
enable fetch.writeCommitGraph=true again to give it some early testing
before rolling out to a wider audience.
In other words:
- this patch only affects behavior with feature.experimental=true
- it makes feature.experimental match the configuration Google has
been using for the last few months, meaning it would leave users in
a better tested state than without it
- this should improve testing for other features guarded by
feature.experimental, by making feature.experimental safer to use

commit.c: don't persist substituted parents when unshallowing
Since 37b9dcabfc (shallow.c: use '{commit,rollback}_shallow_file',
2020-04-22), Git knows how to reset stat-validity checks for the
$GIT_DIR/shallow file, allowing it to change between a shallow and
non-shallow state in the same process (e.g., in the case of 'git fetch
--unshallow').
However, when $GIT_DIR/shallow changes, Git does not alter or remove any
grafts (nor substituted parents) in memory.
This comes up in a "git fetch --unshallow" with fetch.writeCommitGraph
set to true. Ordinarily in a shallow repository (and before 37b9dcabfc,
even in this case), commit_graph_compatible() would return false,
indicating that the repository should not be used to write a
commit-graphs (since commit-graph files cannot represent a shallow
history). But since 37b9dcabfc, in an --unshallow operation that check
succeeds.
Thus even though the repository isn't shallow any longer (that is, we
have all of the objects), the in-core representation of those objects
still has munged parents at the shallow boundaries. When the
commit-graph write proceeds, we use the incorrect parentage, producing
wrong results.
There are two ways for a user to work around this: either (1) set
'fetch.writeCommitGraph' to 'false', or (2) drop the commit-graph after
unshallowing.
One way to fix this would be to reset the parsed object pool entirely
(flushing the cache and thus preventing subsequent reads from modifying
their parents) after unshallowing. That would produce a problem when
callers have a now-stale reference to the old pool, and so this patch
implements a different approach. Instead, attach a new bit to the pool,
'substituted_parent', which indicates if the repository *ever* stored a
commit which had its parents modified (i.e., the shallow boundary
prior to unshallowing).
This bit needs to be sticky because all reads subsequent to modifying a
commit's parents are unreliable when unshallowing. Modify the check in
'commit_graph_compatible' to take this bit into account, and correctly
avoid generating commit-graphs in this case, thus solving the bug.

diff: check for merge bases before assigning sym->base
In symdiff_prepare(), we iterate over the set of parsed objects to pick

then complain if we didn't find a base, like so:
sym->left = rev->pending.objects[lpos].name;
sym->right = rev->pending.objects[rpos].name;
sym->base = rev->pending.objects[basepos].name;
if (basecount == 0)
die(_("%s...%s: no merge base"), sym->left, sym->right);
But the least lines are backwards. If basecount is 0, then basepos will
be -1, and we will access memory outside of the pending array. This
isn't usually that big a deal, since we don't do anything besides a
single pointer-sized read before exiting anyway, but it does violate the
C standard, and of course memory-checking tools like ASan complain.
Let's put the basecount check first. Note that we haveto split it from
the other assignments, since the die() relies on sym->left and
sym->right having been assigned (this isn't strictly necessary, but is
easier to read than dereferencing the pending array again).

Wait for child on signal death for aliases to externals
When we are running an alias to an external command, we want to wait for
that process to exit even after receiving ^C which normally kills the

e.g. pagers often do), and then we don't want it to be killed.
Having an alias which invokes a pager is probably not common, but it can
be useful e.g. if you have an alias to a git command which uses a
subshell as one of the arguments (in which case you have to use an
external command, not an alias to a builtin).
This patch is similar to the previous commit, but the previous commit
fixed this only for aliases to builtins, while this commit does the same
for aliases to external commands. In addition to waiting after clean
like the previous commit, this also enables cleaning the child (that was
already enabled for aliases to builtins before the previous commit),
because wait_after_clean relies on it. Lastly, while the previous commit

difftool -d: ensure that intent-to-add files are handled correctly
In https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/2677, a `git difftool
-d` problem was reported. The underlying cause was a bug in `git
diff-files --raw` that we just fixed: it reported intent-to-add files
with the empty _tree_ as the post-image OID, when we need to show
an all-zero (or, "null") OID instead, to indicate to the caller that
they have to look at the worktree file.
The symptom of that problem shown by `git difftool` was this:
error: unable to read sha1 file of <path> (<empty-tree-OID>)
error: could not write '<filename>'
Make sure that the reported `difftool` problem stays fixed.

diff-files --raw: show correct post-image of intent-to-add files
The documented behavior of `git diff-files --raw` is to display
[...] 0{40} if creation, unmerged or "look at work tree".
on the right hand (i.e. postimage) side. This happens for files that
have unstaged modifications, and for files that are unmodified but
stat-dirty.
For intent-to-add files, we used to show the empty blob's hash instead.
In c26022ea8f5 (diff: convert diff_addremove to struct object_id,
2017-05-30), we made that worse by inadvertently changing that to the
hash of the empty tree.
Let's make the behavior consistent with files that have unstaged
modifications (which applies to intent-to-add files, too) by showing
all-zero values also for intent-to-add files.
Accordingly, this patch adjusts the expectations set by the regression
test introduced in feea6946a5b (diff-files: treat "i-t-a" files as
"not-in-index", 2020-06-20).

cat-file: add missing [=<format>] to usage/synopsis

--batch-check options which are shown like this:
--batch[=<format>] show info and content of objects fed from the standard input
--batch-check[=<format>]
show info about objects fed from the standard input
It seems more coherent and improves discovery to also show it
on the usage line.
In the documentation the DESCRIPTION tells us that "The output
format can be overridden using the optional <format> argument",
but we can't see the <format> argument in the SYNOPSIS above

Merge branch 'xl/upgrade-repo-format'
Allow runtime upgrade of the repository format version, which needs
to be done carefully.
There is a rather unpleasant backward compatibility worry with the
last step of this series, but it is the right thing to do in the
longer term.
* xl/upgrade-repo-format:
check_repository_format_gently(): refuse extensions for old repositories
sparse-checkout: upgrade repository to version 1 when enabling extension
fetch: allow adding a filter after initial clone
repository: add a helper function to perform repository format upgrade
This seems to be a false positive, as there's no type-punning at all
here. oid.hash is an array of unsigned char; when we pass it to a
function it decays to a pointer to unsigned char. We do take a void
pointer in put_be32(), but it's immediately aliased with another pointer
to unsigned char (and clearly the compiler is looking inside the inlined
put_be32(), since the warning doesn't happen with -O0).
This happens on gcc 4.8 and 4.9, but not later versions (I tested gcc 6,
7, 8, and 9).
We can work around it by using a local array instead of an object_id
struct. This is a little more intimate with the details of object_id,
but for whatever reason doesn't seem to trigger the compiler warning.
We can revert this patch once we decide that those gcc versions are too
old to care about for a warning like this (gcc 4.8 is the default
compiler for Ubuntu Trusty, which is out-of-support but not fully
end-of-life'd until April 2022).

fast-export: anonymize "master" refname
Running "fast-export --anonymize" will leave "refs/heads/master"
untouched in the output, for two reasons:
- it helped to have some known reference point between the original
and anonymized repository
- since it's historically the default branch name, it doesn't leak any
information
Now that we can ask fast-export to retain particular tokens, we have a
much better tool for the first one (because it works for any ref, not
just master).
For the second, the notion of "default branch name" is likely to become
configurable soon, at which point the name _does_ leak information.
Let's drop this special case in preparation.
Note that we have to adjust the test a bit, since it relied on using the
name "master" in the anonymized repos. We could just use
--anonymize-map=master to keep the same output, but then we wouldn't
know if it works because of our hard-coded master or because of the
explicit map.
So let's flip the test a bit, and confirm that we anonymize "master",
but keep "other" in the output.

fast-export: allow seeding the anonymized mapping
After you anonymize a repository, it can be hard to find which commits
correspond between the original and the result, and thus hard to
reproduce commands that triggered bugs in the original.
Let's make it possible to seed the anonymization map. This lets users
either:
- mark names to be retained as-is, if they don't consider them secret
(in which case their original commands would just work)
- map names to new values, which lets them adapt the reproduction
recipe to the new names without revealing the originals
The implementation is fairly straight-forward. We already store each
anonymized token in a hashmap (so that the same token appearing twice is
converted to the same result). We can just introduce a new "seed"
hashmap which is consulted first.
This does make a few more promises to the user about how we'll anonymize
things (e.g., token-splitting pathnames). But it's unlikely that we'd
want to change those rules, even if the actual anonymization of a single
token changes. And it makes things much easier for the user, who can
unblind only a directory name without having to specify each path within
it.
One alternative to this approach would be to anonymize as we see fit,
and then dump the whole refname and pathname mappings to a file. This
does work, but it's a bit awkward to use (you have to manually dig the
items you care about out of the mapping).
