With the recent update in efee955 (gpg-interface: check gpg signature
creation status, 2016-06-17), we ask GPG to send all status updates to
stderr, and then catch the stderr in an strbuf.
But GPG might fail, and send error messages to stderr. And we simply
do not show them to the user.
Even worse: this swallows any interactive prompt for a passphrase. And
detaches stderr from the tty so that the passphrase cannot be read.
So while the first problem could be fixed (by printing the captured
stderr upon error), the second problem cannot be easily fixed, and
presents a major regression.
So let's just revert commit efee9553a4.

Teach hash_dir_entry() to remember the previously found dir_entry
during lazy_init_name_hash() iteration. This is a performance
optimization. Since items in the index array are sorted by full
pathname, adjacent items are likely to be in the same directory.
This can save memihash() computations and HashMap lookups.

Specify an initial size for the istate.dir_hash HashMap matching
the size of the istate.name_hash.
Previously hashmap_init() was given 0, causing a 64 bucket
hashmap to be created. When working with very large
repositories, this would cause numerous rehash() calls to
realloc and rebalance the hashmap. This is especially true
when the worktree is deep, with many directories containing
a few files.

Add variant of memihash() to allow the hash computation to

continue the computation to include the "/filename".

Teach preload-index to avoid lstat() calls for index-entries
with skip-worktree bit set. This is a performance optimization.
During a sparse-checkout, the skip-worktree bit is set on items
that were not populated and therefore are not present in the
worktree. The per-thread preload-index loop performs a series
of tests on each index-entry as it attempts to compare the
worktree version with the index and mark them up-to-date.
This patch short-cuts that work.
On a Windows 10 system with a very large repo (450MB index)
and various levels of sparseness, performance was improved
in the {preloadindex=true, fscache=false} case by 80% and
in the {preloadindex=true, fscache=true} case by 20% for various

Just like with other Git commands, this option makes it read the paths
from the standard input. It comes in handy when resetting many, many
paths at once and wildcards are not an option (e.g. when the paths are
generated by a tool).
Note: we first parse the entire list and perform the actual reset action
only in a second phase. Not only does this make things simpler, it also
helps performance, as do_diff_cache() traverses the index and the
(sorted) pathspecs in simultaneously to avoid unnecessary lookups.
This feature is marked experimental because it is still under review in
the upstream Git project.

On Windows, strftime() does not silently ignore invalid formats, but
warns about them and then returns 0 and sets errno to EINVAL.
Unfortunately, Git does not expect such a behavior, as it disagrees
with strftime()'s semantics on Linux. As a consequence, Git
misinterprets the return value 0 as "I need more space" and grows the
buffer. As the larger buffer does not fix the format, the buffer grows
and grows and grows until we are out of memory and abort.
Ideally, we would switch off the parameter validation just for
strftime(), but we cannot even override the invalid parameter handler
via _set_thread_local_invalid_parameter_handler() using MINGW because
that function is not declared. Even _set_invalid_parameter_handler(),
which *is* declared, does not help, as it simply does... nothing.
So let's just bite the bullet and override strftime() for MINGW and
abort on an invalid format string. While this does not provide the
best user experience, it is the best we can do.

In particular when local tags are used (or tags that are pushed to some
fork) to build Git, it is very hard to figure out from which particular
revision a particular Git executable was built.
Let's just report that in our build options.
We need to be careful, though, to report when the current commit cannot be
determined, e.g. when building from a tarball without any associated Git

Add preliminary support for detection of the build plaform, and reporting
of same with the `git version --build-options' command. This can be useful
for bug reporting, to distinguish between 32 and 64-bit builds for
example.
The current implementation can only distinguish between x86 and x86_64.
This will be extended in future patches. In addition, all 32-bit variants
(i686, i586, etc.) are collapsed into `x86'. An example of the output is:
$ git version --build-options
git version 2.9.3.windows.2.826.g06c0f2f
sizeof-long: 4
machine: x86_64
The label of `machine' was chosen so the new information will approximate
the output of `uname -m'.

This operation has quadratic complexity, which is especially painful
on Windows, where shell scripts are *already* slow (mainly due to the
overhead of the POSIX emulation layer).
Let's reimplement this with linear complexity (using a hash map to
match the commits' subject lines) for the common case; Sadly, the
fixup/squash feature's design neglected performance considerations,
allowing arbitrary prefixes (read: `fixup! hell` will match the
commit subject `hello world`), which means that we are stuck with
quadratic performance in the worst case.
The reimplemented logic also happens to fix a bug where commented-out
lines (representing empty patches) were dropped by the previous code.

The `git commit --fixup` command unwraps wrapped onelines when

In particular on Windows, where shell scripts are even more expensive
than on MacOSX or Linux, it makes sense to move a loop that forks
Git at least once for every line in the todo list into a builtin.
Note: The original code did not try to skip unnecessary picks of root
commits but punts instead (probably --root was not considered common
enough of a use case to bother optimizing). We do the same, for now.

These tests were a bit anal about the *exact* warning/error message
printed by git rebase. But those messages are intended for the *end
user*, therefore it does not make sense to test so rigidly for the
*exact* wording.
In the following, we will reimplement the missing commits check in
the sequencer, with slightly different words.
So let's just test for the parts in the warning/error message that
we *really* care about, nothing more, nothing less.

This is crucial to improve performance on Windows, as the speed is now
mostly dominated by the SHA-1 transformation (because it spawns a new
rev-parse process for *every* line, and spawning processes is pretty
slow from Git for Windows' MSYS2 Bash).

To avoid problems with short SHA-1s that become non-unique during the
rebase, we rewrite the todo script with short/long SHA-1s before and
after letting the user edit the script. Since SHA-1s are not intuitive
for humans, rebase -i also provides the onelines (commit message
subjects) in the script, purely for the user's convenience.
It is very possible to generate a todo script via different means than
rebase -i and then to let rebase -i run with it; In this case, these
onelines are not required.
And this is where the expand/collapse machinery has a bug: it *expects*
that oneline, and failing to find one reuses the previous SHA-1 as
"oneline".
It was most likely an oversight, and made implementation in the (quite
limiting) shell script language less convoluted. However, we are about
to reimplement performance-critical parts in C (and due to spawning a
git.exe process for every single line of the todo script, the
expansion/collapsing of the SHA-1s *is* performance-hampering on
Windows), therefore let's fix this bug to make cross-validation with the
C version of that functionality possible.

The commands used to be indented, and it is nice to look at, but when we
transform the SHA-1s, the indentation is removed. So let's do away with it.
For the moment, at least: when we will use the upcoming rebase--helper
to transform the SHA-1s, we *will* keep the indentation and can
reintroduce it. Yet, to be able to validate the rebase--helper against
the output of the current shell script version, we need to remove the
extra indentation.

The first step of an interactive rebase is to generate the so-called "todo
script", to be stored in the state directory as "git-rebase-todo" and to
be edited by the user.
Originally, we adjusted the output of `git log <options>` using a simple
sed script. Over the course of the years, the code became more
complicated. We now use shell scripting to edit the output of `git log`
conditionally, depending whether to keep "empty" commits (i.e. commits
that do not change any files).
On platforms where shell scripting is not native, this can be a serious
drag. And it opens the door for incompatibilities between platforms when
it comes to shell scripting or to Unix-y commands.
Let's just re-implement the todo script generation in plain C, using the
revision machinery directly.
This is substantially faster, improving the speed relative to the
shell script version of the interactive rebase from 2x to 3x on Windows.
Note that the rearrange_squash() function in git-rebase--interactive
relied on the fact that we set the "format" variable to the config setting
rebase.instructionFormat. Relying on a side effect like this is no good,
hence we explicitly perform that assignment (possibly again) in
rearrange_squash().

Now that the sequencer learned to process a "normal" interactive rebase,
we use it. The original shell script is still used for "non-normal"
interactive rebases, i.e. when --root or --preserve-merges was passed.
Please note that the --root option (via the $squash_onto variable) needs
special handling only for the very first command, hence it is still okay
to use the helper upon continue/skip.
Also please note that the --no-ff setting is volatile, i.e. when the
interactive rebase is interrupted at any stage, there is no record of
it. Therefore, we have to pass it from the shell script to the
rebase--helper.
Note: the test t3404 had to be adjusted because the the error messages
produced by the sequencer comply with our current convention to start with
a lower-case letter.

Git's interactive rebase is still implemented as a shell script, despite
its complexity. This implies that it suffers from the portability point
of view, from lack of expressibility, and of course also from
performance. The latter issue is particularly serious on Windows, where
we pay a hefty price for relying so much on POSIX.
Unfortunately, being such a huge shell script also means that we missed
the train when it would have been relatively easy to port it to C, and
instead piled feature upon feature onto that poor script that originally
never intended to be more than a slightly pimped cherry-pick in a loop.
To open the road toward better performance (in addition to all the other
benefits of C over shell scripts), let's just start *somewhere*.
The approach taken here is to add a builtin helper that at first intends
to take care of the parts of the interactive rebase that are most
affected by the performance penalties mentioned above.
In particular, after we spent all those efforts on preparing the sequencer
to process rebase -i's git-rebase-todo scripts, we implement the `git
rebase -i --continue` functionality as a new builtin, git-rebase--helper.
Once that is in place, we can work gradually on tackling the rest of the
technical debt.
Note that the rebase--helper needs to learn about the transient
--ff/--no-ff options of git-rebase, as the corresponding flag is not
persisted to, and re-read from, the state directory.

The interactive rebase has the very special magic that a cherry-pick
that exits with a status different from 0 and 1 signifies a failure to

overwrite untracked files.
