entry: show finer-grained counter in "Filtering content" progress line
The "Filtering content" progress in entry.c:finish_delayed_checkout()
is unusual because of how it calculates the progress count and because
it shows the progress of a nested loop. It works basically like this:
- The work done by the last filter (or the only filter if there is
only one) is never counted, so if the last filter still has some
paths to process, then the counter shown in the "done" progress
line will not match the expected total.
The partially-RFC series to add a GIT_TEST_CHECK_PROGRESS=1
mode[1] helps spot this issue. Under it the 'missing file in
delayed checkout' and 'invalid file in delayed checkout' tests in
't0021-conversion.sh' fail, because both use only one
filter. (The test 'delayed checkout in process filter' uses two
filters but the first one does all the work, so that test already
happens to succeed even with GIT_TEST_CHECK_PROGRESS=1.)
- The progress counter is updated only once per filter, not once per
processed path, so if a filter has a lot of paths to process, then
the counter might stay unchanged for a long while and then make a
big jump (though the user still gets a sense of progress, because
we call display_throughput() after each processed path to show the
amount of processed data).
Move the display_progress() call to the inner loop, right next to that
checkout_entry() call that does the hard work for each path, and use a
dedicated counter variable that is incremented upon processing each
path.
After this change the 'invalid file in delayed checkout' in
't0021-conversion.sh' would succeed with the GIT_TEST_CHECK_PROGRESS=1
assertion discussed above, but the 'missing file in delayed checkout'
test would still fail.
It'll fail because its purposefully buggy filter doesn't process any
paths, so we won't execute that inner loop at all, see [2] for how to
spot that issue without GIT_TEST_CHECK_PROGRESS=1. It's not
straightforward to fix it with the current progress.c library (see [3]
for an attempt), so let's leave it for now.
Let's also initialize the *progress to "NULL" while we're at it. Since 7a132c628e5 (checkout: make delayed checkout respect --quiet and
--no-progress, 2021-08-26) we have had progress conditional on
"show_progress", usually we use the idiom of a "NULL" initialization
of the "*progress", rather than the more verbose ternary added in 7a132c628e5.

The final value of the counter of the "Scanning merged commits"
progress line is always one less than its expected total, e.g.:
Scanning merged commits: 83% (5/6), done.
This happens because while iterating over an array the loop variable

the loop variable) start at 0 and end at N-1, the progress counter
must end at N. Fix this by passing 'i + 1' to display_progress(), like
most other callsites do.

submodule: lazily add submodule ODBs as alternates
Teach Git to add submodule ODBs as alternates to the object store of
the_repository only upon the first access of an object not in
the_repository, and not when add_submodule_odb() is called.
This provides a means of gradually migrating from accessing a
submodule's object through alternates to accessing a submodule's object
by explicitly passing its repository object. Any Git command can declare
that it might access submodule objects by calling add_submodule_odb()
(as they do now), but the submodule ODBs themselves will not be added
until needed, so individual commands and/or combinations of arguments
can be migrated one by one.
[The advantage of explicit repository-object passing is code clarity (it
is clear which repository an object read is from), performance (there is
no need to linearly search through all submodule ODBs whenever an object
is accessed from any repository, whether superproject or submodule), and
the possibility of future features like partial clone submodules (which
right now is not possible because if an object is missing, we do not
know which repository to lazy-fetch into).]
This commit also introduces an environment variable that a test may set
to make the actual registration of alternates fatal, in order to
demonstrate that its codepaths do not need this registration.

send-email: fix a "first config key wins" regression in v2.33.0
Fix a regression in my c95e3a3f0b8 (send-email: move trivial config
handling to Perl, 2021-05-28) where we'd pick the first config key out
of multiple defined ones, instead of using the normal "last key wins"
semantics of "git config --get".
This broke e.g. cases where a .git/config would have a different
sendemail.smtpServer than ~/.gitconfig. We'd pick the ~/.gitconfig
over .git/config, instead of preferring the repository-local
version. The same would go for /etc/gitconfig etc.
The full list of impacted config keys (the %config_settings values
which are references to scalars, not arrays) is:
I.e. having any of these set in say ~/.gitconfig and in-repo
.git/config regressed in v2.33.0 to prefer the --global one over the
--local.
To test this add a test of config priority to one of these config
variables, most don't have tests at all, but there was an existing one
for sendemail.8bitEncoding.
The "git config" (instead of "test_config") is somewhat of an
anti-pattern, but follows established conventions in
t9001-send-email.sh, likewise with any other pattern or idiom in this
test.
The populating of home/.gitconfig and setting of HOME= is copied from

In 2f732bf15e6 (tr2: log parent process name, 2021-07-21) we started
logging parent process names, but only logged all parents on Windows.
on Linux only the name of the immediate parent process was logged.
Extend the functionality added there to also log full parent chain on
Linux.
This requires us to lookup "/proc/<getppid()>/stat" instead of
"/proc/<getppid()>/comm". The "comm" file just contains the name of the
process, but the "stat" file has both that information, and the parent
PID of that process, see procfs(5). We parse out the parent PID of our
own parent, and recursively walk the chain of "/proc/*/stat" files all
the way up the chain. A parent PID of 0 indicates the end of the
chain.
It's possible given the semantics of Linux's PID files that we end up
getting an entirely nonsensical chain of processes. It could happen if
e.g. we have a chain of processes like:
1 (init) => 321 (bash) => 123 (git)
Let's assume that "bash" was started a while ago, and that as shown
the OS has already cycled back to using a lower PID for us than our
parent process. In the time it takes us to start up and get to
trace2_collect_process_info(TRACE2_PROCESS_INFO_STARTUP) our parent
process might exit, and be replaced by an entirely different process!
We'd racily look up our own getppid(), but in the meantime our parent
would exit, and Linux would have cycled all the way back to starting
an entirely unrelated process as PID 321.
If that happens we'll just silently log incorrect data in our ancestry
chain. Luckily we don't need to worry about this except in this
specific cycling scenario, as Linux does not have PID
randomization. It appears it once did through a third-party feature,
but that it was removed around 2006[1]. For anyone worried about this
edge case raising PID_MAX via "/proc/sys/kernel/pid_max" will mitigate
it, but not eliminate it.
One thing we don't need to worry about is getting into an infinite
loop when walking "/proc/*/stat". See 353d3d77f4f (trace2: collect
Windows-specific process information, 2019-02-22) for the related
Windows code that needs to deal with that, and [2] for an explanation
of that edge case.
Aside from potential race conditions it's also a bit painful to
correctly parse the process name out of "/proc/*/stat". A simpler
approach is to use fscanf(), see [3] for an implementation of that,
but as noted in the comment being added here it would fail in the face
of some weird process names, so we need our own parse_proc_stat() to
parse it out.
With this patch the "ancestry" chain for a trace2 event might look
like this:
And in the case of naughty process names like the following. This uses
perl's ability to use prctl(PR_SET_NAME, ...). See

assignment to $0 on Linux, 2010-04-15)[4]:

tr2: leave the parent list empty upon failure & don't leak memory
In a subsequent commit I'll be replacing most of this code to log N
parents, but let's first fix bugs introduced in the recent 2f732bf15e6 (tr2: log parent process name, 2021-07-21).
It was using the strbuf_read_file() in the wrong way, its return value
is either a length or a negative value on error. If we didn't have a
procfs, or otherwise couldn't access it we'd end up pushing an empty
string to the trace2 ancestry array.
It was also using the strvec_push() API the wrong way. That API always
does an xstrdup(), so by detaching the strbuf here we'd leak
memory. Let's instead pass in our pointer for strvec_push() to
xstrdup(), and then free our own strbuf. I do have some WIP changes to
make strvec_push_nodup() non-static, which makes this and some other
callsites nicer, but let's just follow the prevailing pattern of using
strvec_push() for now.
We'll also need to free that "procfs_path" strbuf whether or not
strbuf_read_file() succeeds, which was another source of memory leaks
in 2f732bf15e6, i.e. we'd leak that memory as well if we weren't on a
system where we could read the file from procfs.
Let's move all the freeing of the memory to the end of the
function. If we're still at STRBUF_INIT with "name" due to not having
taken the branch where the strbuf_read_file() succeeds freeing it is
redundant. So we could move it into the body of the "if", but just
handling freeing the same way for all branches of the function makes
it more readable.
In combination with the preceding commit this makes all of
t[0-9]*trace2*.sh pass under SANITIZE=leak on Linux.

maintenance: add support for systemd timers on Linux
The existing mechanism for scheduling background maintenance is done
through cron. On Linux systems managed by systemd, systemd provides an
alternative to schedule recurring tasks: systemd timers.
The main motivations to implement systemd timers in addition to cron
are:
* cron is optional and Linux systems running systemd might not have it
installed.
* The execution of `crontab -l` can tell us if cron is installed but not
if the daemon is actually running.
* With systemd, each service is run in its own cgroup and its logs are
tagged by the service inside journald. With cron, all scheduled tasks
are running in the cron daemon cgroup and all the logs of the
user-scheduled tasks are pretended to belong to the system cron
service.
Concretely, a user that doesn’t have access to the system logs won’t
have access to the log of their own tasks scheduled by cron whereas
they will have access to the log of their own tasks scheduled by
systemd timer.
Although `cron` attempts to send email, that email may go unseen by
the user because these days, local mailboxes are not heavily used
anymore.
In order to schedule git maintenance, we need two unit template files:
* ~/.config/systemd/user/git-maintenance@.service
to define the command to be started by systemd and
* ~/.config/systemd/user/git-maintenance@.timer
to define the schedule at which the command should be run.
Those units are templates that are parameterized by the frequency.
Based on those templates, 3 timers are started:
* git-maintenance@hourly.timer
* git-maintenance@daily.timer
* git-maintenance@weekly.timer
The command launched by those three timers are the same as with the
other scheduling methods:
/path/to/git for-each-repo --exec-path=/path/to
--config=maintenance.repo maintenance run --schedule=%i
with the full path for git to ensure that the version of git launched
for the scheduled maintenance is the same as the one used to run
`maintenance start`.
The timer unit contains `Persistent=true` so that, if the computer is
powered down when a maintenance task should run, the task will be run
when the computer is back powered on.

Depending on the system, different schedulers can be used to schedule
the hourly, daily and weekly executions of `git maintenance run`:
* `launchctl` for MacOS,
* `schtasks` for Windows and
* `crontab` for everything else.
`git maintenance run` now has an option to let the end-user explicitly
choose which scheduler he wants to use:
`--scheduler=auto|crontab|launchctl|schtasks`.
When `git maintenance start --scheduler=XXX` is run, it not only
registers `git maintenance run` tasks in the scheduler XXX, it also
removes the `git maintenance run` tasks from all the other schedulers to
ensure we cannot have two schedulers launching concurrent identical
tasks.
The default value is `auto` which chooses a suitable scheduler for the
system.
`git maintenance stop` doesn't have any `--scheduler` parameter because
this command will try to remove the `git maintenance run` tasks from all
the available schedulers.

cache.h: Introduce a generic "xdg_config_home_for(…)" function
Current implementation of `xdg_config_home(filename)` returns
`$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/git/$filename`, with the `git` subdirectory inserted
between the `XDG_CONFIG_HOME` environment variable and the parameter.
This patch introduces a `xdg_config_home_for(subdir, filename)` function
which is more generic. It only concatenates "$XDG_CONFIG_HOME", or
"$HOME/.config" if the former isn’t defined, with the parameters,
without adding `git` in between.
`xdg_config_home(filename)` is now implemented by calling
`xdg_config_home_for("git", filename)` but this new generic function can
be used to compute the configuration directory of other programs.

test-lib-functions: keep user's debugger config files and TERM in 'debug'
The 'debug' function in test-lib-functions.sh is used to invoke a
debugger at a specific line in a test. It inherits the value of HOME and
TERM set by 'test-lib.sh': HOME="$TRASH_DIRECTORY" and TERM=dumb.
Changing the value of HOME means that any customization configured in a
developers' debugger configuration file (like $HOME/.gdbinit or
$HOME/.lldbinit) are not available in the debugger invoked by
'test_pause'.
Changing the value of TERM to 'dumb' means that colored output
is disabled in the debugger.
To make the debugging experience with 'debug' more pleasant, leverage
the variable USER_HOME, added in the previous commit, to copy a
developer's ~/.gdbinit and ~/.lldbinit to the test HOME. We do not set
HOME to USER_HOME as in 'test_pause' to avoid user configuration in
$USER_HOME/.gitconfig from interfering with the command being debugged.
Also, add a flag to launch the debugger with the original value of
TERM, and add the same warning as for 'test_pause'.

test-lib-functions: optionally keep HOME, TERM and SHELL in 'test_pause'
The 'test_pause' function, which is designed to help interactive
debugging and exploration of tests, currently inherits the value of HOME
and TERM set by 'test-lib.sh': HOME="$TRASH_DIRECTORY" and TERM=dumb. It
also invokes the shell defined by TEST_SHELL_PATH, which defaults to
/bin/sh (through SHELL_PATH).
Changing the value of HOME means that any customization configured in a
developers' shell startup files and any Git aliases defined in their
global Git configuration file are not available in the shell invoked by
'test_pause'.
Changing the value of TERM to 'dumb' means that colored output
is disabled for all commands in that shell.
Using /bin/sh as the shell invoked by 'test_pause' is not ideal since
some platforms (i.e. Debian and derivatives) use Dash as /bin/sh, and
this shell is usually compiled without readline support, which makes for
a poor interactive command line experience.
To make the interactive command line experience in the shell invoked by
'test_pause' more pleasant, save the values of HOME and TERM in
USER_HOME and USER_TERM before changing them in test-lib.sh, and add
options to 'test_pause' to optionally use these variables to invoke the
shell. Also add an option to invoke SHELL instead of TEST_SHELL_PATH, so
that developer's interactive shell is used.
We use options instead of changing the behaviour unconditionally since
these three variables can slightly change command behaviour. Moreover,
using the original HOME means commands could overwrite files in a user's
home directory. Be explicit about these caveats in the new 'Usage'
section in test-lib-functions.sh.
Finally, add '[options]' to the test_pause synopsys in t/README, and
mention that the full list of helper functions and their options can be
found in test-lib-functions.sh.

Add $(INSTALL_STRIP), which allows passing stripping options to
$(INSTALL).
For this to work, installing executables must be split to installing
compiled binaries and scripts portions, since $(INSTALL_STRIP) is only
meaningful to the former.
Users can set this variable depending on their system. For example,
Linux users can use `-s --strip-program=strip`, while FreeBSD users can
simply set to `-s` and choose strip program with $STRIPBIN.

apply: resolve trivial merge without hitting ll-merge with "--3way"
The ll_binary_merge() function assumes that the ancestor blob is
different from either side of the new versions, and always fails
the merge in conflict, unless -Xours or -Xtheirs is in effect.
The normal "merge" machineries all resolve the trivial cases
(e.g. if our side changed while their side did not, the result
is ours) without triggering the file-level merge drivers, so the
assumption is warranted.
The code path in "git apply --3way", however, does not check for
the trivial three-way merge situation and always calls the
file-level merge drivers. This used to be perfectly OK back
when we always first attempted a straight patch application and
used the three-way code path only as a fallback. Any binary
patch that can be applied as a trivial three-way merge (e.g. the
patch is based exactly on the version we happen to have) would
always cleanly apply, so the ll_binary_merge() that is not
prepared to see the trivial case would not have to handle such a
case.
This no longer is true after we made "--3way" to mean "first try
three-way and then fall back to straight application", and made
"git apply -3" on a binary patch that is based on the current
version no longer apply.
Teach "git apply -3" to first check for the trivial merge cases
and resolve them without hitting the file-level merge drivers.
