doc: GIT_DEFAULT_HASH is and will be ignored during "clone"
The phrasing "is currently ignored" was prone to be misinterpreted
as if we were wishing if it were honored. Rephrase it to make it
clear that the experimental variable will be ignored.
In the longer term, after/when we allow incremental/over-the-wire
migration of the object-format, i.e. cloning from an SHA-1
repository to create an SHA-256 repository (or vice versa) and
fetching and pushing between them would bidirectionally convert the
object format on the fly, it is likely that we would teach a new
option "--object-format" to "git clone" to say "you would use
whatever object format the origin uses by default, but this time, I
am telling you to use this format on our side, doing on-the-fly
object format conversion as needed". So it is perfectly OK to
ignore the settings of this experimental variable, even after such
an extension happens that makes it necessary for us to have a way to
create a new repository that uses different object format from the
origin repository.

t/helper/test-json-writer.c: avoid using `strtok()`
Apply similar treatment as in the previous commit to remove usage of
`strtok()` from the "oidmap" test helper.
Each of the different commands that the "json-writer" helper accepts
pops the next space-delimited token from the current line and interprets
it as a string, integer, or double (with the exception of the very first
token, which is the command itself).
To accommodate this, split the line in place by the space character, and
pass the corresponding string_list to each of the specialized `get_s()`,
`get_i()`, and `get_d()` functions.
`get_i()` and `get_d()` are thin wrappers around `get_s()` that convert
their result into the appropriate type by either calling `strtol()` or
`strtod()`, respectively. In `get_s()`, we mark the token as "consumed"
by incrementing the `consumed_nr` counter, indicating how many tokens we
have read up to that point.
Because each of these functions needs the string-list parts, the number
of tokens consumed, and the line number, these three are wrapped up in
to a struct representing the line state.

is preferable over calling `string_list_clear()` on every iteration of
the loop. This is because `string_list_clear()` causes us free our
existing `items` array. This means that every time we call
`string_list_split_in_place()`, the string-list internals re-allocate
the same size array.
Since in the above example we do not care about the individual parts
after processing each line, it is much more efficient to pretend that
there aren't any elements in the `string_list` by setting `list->nr` to
0 while leaving the list of elements allocated as-is.
This allows `string_list_split_in_place()` to overwrite any existing
entries without needing to free and re-allocate them.
However, setting `list->nr` manually is not safe in all instances. There
are a couple of cases worth worrying about:
- If the `string_list` is initialized with `strdup_strings`,
truncating the list can lead to overwriting strings which are
allocated elsewhere. If there aren't any other pointers to those
strings other than the ones inside of the `items` array, they will
become unreachable and leak.
(We could ourselves free the truncated items between
string_list->items[nr] and `list->nr`, but no present or future
callers would benefit from this additional complexity).
- If the given `nr` is larger than the current value of `list->nr`,
we'll trick the `string_list` into a state where it thinks there are
more items allocated than there actually are, which can lead to
undefined behavior if we try to read or write those entries.
Guard against both of these by introducing a helper function which
guards assignment of `list->nr` against each of the above conditions.

Enhance `string_list_split_in_place()` to accept multiple characters as
delimiters instead of a single character.
Instead of using `strchr(2)` to locate the first occurrence of the given
delimiter character, `string_list_split_in_place_multi()` uses
`strcspn(2)` to move past the initial segment of characters comprised of
any characters in the delimiting set.
When only a single delimiting character is provided, `strpbrk(2)` (which
is implemented with `strcspn(2)`) has equivalent performance to
`strchr(2)`. Modern `strcspn(2)` implementations treat an empty
delimiter or the singleton delimiter as a special case and fall back to
calling strchrnul(). Both glibc[1] and musl[2] implement `strcspn(2)`
this way.
This change is one step to removing `strtok(2)` from the tree. Note that
`string_list_split_in_place()` is not a strict replacement for
`strtok()`, since it will happily turn sequential delimiter characters
into empty entries in the resulting string_list. For example:

credential: new attribute oauth_refresh_token
Git authentication with OAuth access token is supported by every popular
Git host including GitHub, GitLab and BitBucket [1][2][3]. Credential
helpers Git Credential Manager (GCM) and git-credential-oauth generate
OAuth credentials [4][5]. Following RFC 6749, the application prints a
link for the user to authorize access in browser. A loopback redirect
communicates the response including access token to the application.
For security, RFC 6749 recommends that OAuth response also includes
expiry date and refresh token [6]. After expiry, applications can use
the refresh token to generate a new access token without user
reauthorization in browser. GitLab and BitBucket set the expiry at two
hours [2][3]. (GitHub doesn't populate expiry or refresh token.)
However the Git credential protocol has no attribute to store the OAuth
refresh token (unrecognised attributes are silently discarded). This
means that the user has to regularly reauthorize the helper in browser.
On a browserless system, this is particularly intrusive, requiring a
second device.
Introduce a new attribute oauth_refresh_token. This is especially
useful when a storage helper and a read-only OAuth helper are configured
together. Recall that `credential fill` calls each helper until it has a
non-expired password.
The OAuth helper can use the stored refresh token forwarded by
`credential fill` to generate a fresh access token without opening the
browser. See
https://github.com/hickford/git-credential-oauth/pull/3/files
for an implementation tested with this patch.
Add support for the new attribute to credential-cache. Eventually, I
hope to see support in other popular storage helpers.
Alternatives considered: ask helpers to store all unrecognised
attributes. This seems excessively complex for no obvious gain.
Helpers would also need extra information to distinguish between
confidential and non-confidential attributes.
Workarounds: GCM abuses the helper get/store/erase contract to store the
refresh token during credential *get* as the password for a fictitious
host [7] (I wrote this hack). This workaround is only feasible for a
monolithic helper with its own storage.
completion: suppress unwanted unescaping of `read`
The function `__git_eread`, which reads the first line from the file,
calls the `read` builtin without passing the flag option `-r`. When
the `read` builtin is called without the flag `-r`, it processes the
backslash escaping in the text that it reads. For this reason, it is
generally considered the best practice to always use the `read`
builtin with flag `-r` unless one intensionally processes the
backslash escaping. For the present case in git-prompt.sh, in fact,
all the occurrences of the calls of `__git_eread` intend to read the
literal content of the first lines.
To make it read the first line literally, pass the flag `-r` to the
`read` builtin in the function `__git_eread`.

gpg-interface: set trust level of missing key to "undefined"
In check_signature(), we initialize the trust_level field to "-1", with
the idea that if gpg does not return a trust level at all (if there is
no signature, or if the signature is made by an unknown key), we'll
use that value. But this has two problems:
1. Since the field is an enum, it's up to the compiler to decide what
underlying storage to use, and it only has to fit the values we've
declared. So we may not be able to store "-1" at all. And indeed,
on my system (linux with gcc), the resulting enum is an unsigned
32-bit value, and -1 becomes 4294967295.
The difference may seem academic (and you even get "-1" if you pass
it to printf("%d")), but it means that code like this:
status |= sigc->trust_level < configured_min_trust_level;
does not necessarily behave as expected. This turns out not to be a
bug in practice, though, because we keep the "-1" only when gpg did
not report a signature from a known key, in which case the line
above:
status |= sigc->result != 'G';
would always set status to non-zero anyway. So only a 'G' signature
with no parsed trust level would cause a problem, which doesn't
seem likely to trigger (outside of unexpected gpg behavior).
2. When using the "%GT" format placeholder, we pass the value to
gpg_trust_level_to_str(), which complains that the value is out of
range with a BUG(). This behavior was introduced by 803978da49
(gpg-interface: add function for converting trust level to string,
2022-07-11). Before that, we just did a switch() on the enum, and
anything that wasn't matched would end up as the empty string.
Curiously, solving this by naively doing:
if (level < 0)
return "";
in that function isn't sufficient. Because of (1) above, the
compiler can (and does in my case) actually remove that conditional
as dead code!
We can solve both by representing this state as an enum value. We could
do this by adding a new "unknown" value. But this really seems to match
the existing "undefined" level well. GPG describes this as "Not enough
information for calculation".
We have tests in t7510 that trigger this case (verifying a signature
from a key that we don't have, and then checking various %G
placeholders), but they didn't notice the BUG() because we didn't look
at %GT for that case! Let's make sure we check all %G placeholders for
each case in the formatting tests.
The interesting ones here are "show unknown signature with custom
format" and "show lack of signature with custom format", both of which
would BUG() before, and now turn %GT into "undefined". Prior to 803978da49 they would have turned it into the empty string, but I think
saying "undefined" consistently is a reasonable outcome, and probably
makes life easier for anyone parsing the output (and any such parser had
to be ready to see "undefined" already).
The other modified tests produce the same output before and after this
patch, but now we're consistently checking both %G? and %GT in all of
them.

builtin/gc.c: make `gc.cruftPacks` enabled by default
Back in 5b92477f89 (builtin/gc.c: conditionally avoid pruning objects
via loose, 2022-05-20), `git gc` learned the `--cruft` option and
`gc.cruftPacks` configuration to opt-in to writing cruft packs when
collecting or pruning unreachable objects.
Cruft packs were introduced with the merge in a50036da1a (Merge branch
'tb/cruft-packs', 2022-06-03). They address the problem of "loose object
explosions", where Git will write out many individual loose objects when
there is a large number of unreachable objects that have not yet aged
past `--prune=<date>`.
Instead of keeping track of those unreachable yet recent objects via
their loose object file's mtime, cruft packs collect all unreachable
objects into a single pack with a corresponding `*.mtimes` file that
acts as a table to store the mtimes of all unreachable objects. This
prevents the need to store unreachable objects as loose as they age out
of the repository, and avoids the problem of loose object explosions.
Beyond avoiding loose object explosions, cruft packs also act as a more
efficient mechanism to store unreachable objects as they age out of a
repository. This is because pairs of similar unreachable objects serve
as delta bases for one another.
In 5b92477f89, the feature was introduced as experimental. Since then,
GitHub has been running these patches in every repository generating
hundreds of millions of cruft packs along the way. The feature is
battle-tested, and avoids many pathological cases such as above. Users
who either run `git gc` manually, or via `git maintenance` can benefit
from having cruft packs.
As such, enable cruft pack generation to take place by default (by
making `gc.cruftPacks` have the default of "true" rather than "false).

t/t9300-fast-import.sh: prepare for `gc --cruft` by default
In a similar fashion as previous commits, adjust the fast-import tests
to prepare for "git gc" generating a cruft pack by default.
This adjustment is slightly different, however. Instead of relying on us
writing out the objects loose, and then calling `git prune` to remove
them, t9300 needs to be prepared to drop objects that would be moved
into cruft packs.
To do this, we can combine the `git gc` invocation with `git prune` into
one `git gc --prune`, which handles pruning both loose objects, and
objects that would otherwise be written to a cruft pack.
Likely this pattern of "git gc && git prune" started all the way back in 03db4525d3 (Support gitlinks in fast-import., 2008-07-19), which
happened after deprecating `git gc --prune` in 9e7d501990 (builtin-gc.c:
deprecate --prune, it now really has no effect, 2008-05-09).
After `--prune` was un-deprecated in 58e9d9d472 (gc: make --prune useful
again by accepting an optional parameter, 2009-02-14), this script got a
handful of new "git gc && git prune" instances via via 4cedb78cb5
(fast-import: add input format tests, 2011-08-11). These could have been
`git gc --prune`, but weren't (likely taking after 03db4525d3).

builtin/gc.c: ignore cruft packs with `--keep-largest-pack`
When cruft packs were implemented, we never adjusted the code for `git
gc`'s `--keep-largest-pack` and `gc.bigPackThreshold` to ignore cruft
packs. This option and configuration option share a common
implementation, but including cruft packs is wrong in both cases:
- Running `git gc --keep-largest-pack` in a repository where the
largest pack is the cruft pack itself will make it impossible for
`git gc` to prune objects, since the cruft pack itself is kept.
- The same is true for `gc.bigPackThreshold`, if the size of the cruft
pack exceeds the limit set by the caller.
In the future, it is possible that `gc.bigPackThreshold` could be used
to write a separate cruft pack containing any new unreachable objects
that entered the repository since the last time a cruft pack was
written.
There are some complexities to doing so, mainly around handling
pruning objects that are in an existing cruft pack that is above the
threshold (which would either need to be rewritten, or else delay
pruning). Rewriting a substantially similar cruft pack isn't ideal, but
it is significantly better than the status-quo.
If users have large cruft packs that they don't want to rewrite, they
can mark them as `*.keep` packs. But in general, if a repository has a
cruft pack that is so large it is slowing down GC's, it should probably
be pruned anyway.
In the meantime, ignore cruft packs in the common implementation for
both of these options, and add a pair of tests to prevent any future
regressions here.

While parsing a .rev file, we check the header information to be sure it
makes sense. This happens before doing any additional validation such as
a checksum or value check. In order to differentiate between a bad
header and a non-existent file, we need to update the API for loading a
reverse index.
Make load_pack_revindex_from_disk() non-static and specify that a
positive value means "the file does not exist" while other errors during
parsing are negative values. Since an invalid header prevents setting up
the structures we would use for further validations, we can stop at that
point.
The place where we can distinguish between a missing file and a corrupt
file is inside load_revindex_from_disk(), which is used both by pack
rev-indexes and multi-pack-index rev-indexes. Some tests in t5326
demonstrate that it is critical to take some conditions to allow
positive error signals.
Add tests that check the three header values.

When checking a rev-index file, it may be helpful to identify exactly
which positions are incorrect. Compare the rev-index to a
freshly-computed in-memory rev-index and report the comparison failures.
This additional check (on top of the checksum validation) can help find
files that were corrupt by a single bit flip on-disk or perhaps were

The 'fsck' builtin checks many of Git's on-disk data structures, but
does not currently validate the pack rev-index files (a .rev file to
pair with a .pack and .idx file).
Before doing a more-involved check process, create the scaffolding
within builtin/fsck.c to have a new error type and add that error type
when the API method verify_pack_revindex() returns an error. That method
does nothing currently, but we will add checks to it in later changes.
For now, check that 'git fsck' succeeds without any errors in the normal
case. Future checks will be paired with tests that corrupt the .rev file
appropriately.
