Exclude patterns can be used by reference backends to skip over blocks
of references that are uninteresting to the caller. Reference backends
do not have to wire up support for them, and all callers are expected to
behave as if the backend didn't support them. In fact, the only backend
that supports exclude patterns right now is the "packed" backend.
Exclude patterns can be quite an important performance optimization in
repositories that have loads of references. The patterns are set up in
case "transfer.hideRefs" and friends are configured during a fetch, so
handling these patterns becomes important once there are lots of hidden
refs in a served repository.
Now that we have properly re-seekable reftable iterators we can also
wire up support for these patterns in the "reftable" backend. Doing so
is conceptually simple: once we hit a reference whose prefix matches the
current exclude pattern we re-seek the iterator to the first reference
that doesn't match the pattern anymore. This schema only works for
trivial patterns that do not have any globbing characters in them, but
this restriction also applies do the "packed" backend.
This makes t1419 work with the "reftable" backend with some slight
modifications. Of course it also speeds up listing of references with
hidden refs. The following benchmark prints one reference with 1 million
hidden references:
Benchmark 1: HEAD~

In 67ce50ba26 (Merge branch 'ps/reftable-reusable-iterator', 2024-05-30)
we have refactored the interface of reftable iterators such that they
can be reused in theory. This patch series only landed the required
changes on the interface level, but didn't yet implement the actual
logic to make iterators reusable.
As it turns out almost all of the infrastructure already does support
re-seeking. The only exception is the table iterator, which does not
reset its `is_finished` bit. Do so and add a couple of tests that verify
that we can re-seek iterators.

We have recently migrated all of the reftable unit tests that were part
of the reftable library into our own unit testing framework. As part of
that migration we have duplicated some of the functionality that was
part of the reftable test framework into each of the migrated test
suites. This was a sensible decision to not have all of the migrations
dependent on each other, but now that the migration is done it makes
sense to deduplicate the functionality again.
Introduce a new reftable test library that hosts some shared code and
adapt tests to use it.

In `write_head_info()` we announce references to the remote client. We
need to honor "transfer.hideRefs" here so that we do not announce any
references that the client shouldn't be able to learn about. This is
done via two separate mechanisms:
- We hand over exclude patterns to the reference backend. We can only
honor "plain" exclude patterns here that do not have prefixes with
special meaning such as "^" or "!". Filtering down the references is
handled by `hidden_refs_to_excludes()`.
- In `show_ref_cb()` we perform a second check against hidden refs.
For one this is done such that we can handle those special prefixes.
And second, handling exclude patterns in ref backends is optional,
so we also have to handle "normal" patterns.
The special-meaning "^" prefix alters whether a hidden ref applies to
the namespace-stripped reference name or the full name. So while we
would usually call `refs_for_each_namespaced_ref()` to only get those
references in the current namespace, we can't because we'd get the
already-rewritten reference names. Instead, we are forced to use
`refs_for_each_fullref_in()` and then manually strip away the namespace
prefix such that we have access to both names.
But this also means that we do not get namespace handling for exclude
patterns, which `refs_for_each_namespaced_ref()` brings for free. This
results in a bug because we potentially end up hiding away references
based on their namespaced name and not on the stripped name as we really
should be doing.
Fix this by manually rewriting the exclude patterns to their namespaced
variants.

Reference namespaces allow commands like git-upload-pack(1) to serve
different sets of references to the client depending on which namespace
is enabled, which is for example useful in fork networks. Namespaced
refs are stored with a `refs/namespaces/$namespace` prefix, but all the
user will ultimately see is a stripped version where that prefix is
removed.
The way that this interacts with "transfer.hideRefs" is not immediately
obvious: the hidden refs can either apply to the stripped references, or
to the non-stripped ones that still have the namespace prefix. In fact,
the "transfer.hideRefs" machinery does the former and applies to the
stripped reference by default, but rules can have "^" prefixed to switch
this behaviour to instead match against the full reference name.
Namespaces are exclusively handled at the generic "refs" layer, the
respective backends have no clue that such a thing even exists. This
also has the consequence that they cannot handle hiding references as
soon as reference namespaces come into play because they neither know
whether a namespace is active, nor do they know how to strip references
if they are active.
Handling such exclude patterns in `refs_for_each_namespaced_ref()` and
`refs_for_each_fullref_in_prefixes()` is broken though, as both support
that the user passes both namespaces and exclude patterns. In the case
where both are set we will exclude references with unstripped names,
even though we really wanted to exclude references based on their
stripped names.
This only surfaces when:
- A repository uses reference namespaces.
- "transfer.hideRefs" is active.
- The namespaced references are packed into the "packed-refs" file.
None of our tests exercise this scenario, and thus we haven't ever hit
it. While t5509 exercises both (1) and (2), it does not happen to hit
(3). It is trivial to demonstrate the bug though by explicitly packing
refs in the tests, and then we indeed surface the breakage.
Fix this bug by prefixing exclude patterns with the namespace in the
generic layer. The newly introduced function will be used outside of
"refs.c" in the next patch, so we add a declaration to "refs.h".

In the current stack tests, ref records are compared for equality
by sometimes using the dedicated function for ref-record comparison,
reftable_ref_record_equal(), and sometimes by explicity comparing
contents of the ref records.
The latter method is undesired because there can exist unequal ref
records with some of the contents being equal. Replace the latter
instances of ref-record comparison with the former. This has the
added benefit of preserving uniformity throughout the test file.

Some large repositories use tags to track a huge list of release
versions. While this choice is costly on the ref advertisement, it is
further wasteful for clients who do not need those tags. Allow clients
to optionally skip the tag advertisement.
This behavior is similar to that of 'git clone --no-tags' implemented in
0dab2468ee (clone: add a --no-tags option to clone without tags,
2017-04-26), including the modification of the remote.origin.tagOpt
config value to include "--no-tags".
One thing that is opposite of the 'git clone' implementation is that
this allows '--tags' as an assumed option, which can be naturally negated
with '--no-tags'. The clone command does not accept '--tags' but allows
"--no-no-tags" as the negation of its '--no-tags' option.
While testing this option, combine the test with the previously untested
'--no-src' option introduced in 4527db8ff8 (scalar: add --[no-]src
option, 2023-08-28).

Our error reporting routines append a trailing newline, and the strings
we pass to them should not include them (otherwise we get an extra blank
line after the message).
These cases were all found by looking at the results of:
git grep -P '[^_](error|error_errno|warning|die|die_errno)\(.*\\n"[,)]' '*.c'
Note that we _do_ sometimes include a newline in the middle of such
messages, to create multiline output (hence our grep matching "," or ")"
after we see the newline, so we know we're at the end of the string).
It's possible that one or more of these cases could intentionally be
including a blank line at the end, but having looked at them all
manually, I think these are all just mistakes.

This change affects how 'git cat-file' works with the index when
specifying an object with the ":<path>" syntax (which will give file
contents from the index).
'git cat-file' expands a sparse index to a full index any time contents
are requested from the index by specifying an object with the ":<path>"
syntax. This is true even when the requested file is part of the sparse
index, and results in much slower 'git cat-file' operations when working
within the sparse index.
Mark 'git cat-file' as not needing a full index, so that you only pay
the cost of expanding the sparse index to a full index when you request
a file outside of the sparse index.
Add tests to ensure both that:
- 'git cat-file' returns the correct file contents whether or not the
file is in the sparse index
- 'git cat-file' expands to the full index any time you request
something outside of the sparse index

The 'run_on_sparse' and 'run_on_all' functions do not work correctly for
commands accepting standard input, because they run the same command
multiple times and the first instance consumes it. This also indirectly
affects 'test_all_match' and 'test_sparse_match'.
To allow these functions to work with commands accepting standard input,
first slurp standard input to a temporary file, and then run the command
with its standard input redirected from the temporary file. This ensures
that each command sees the same contents from its standard input.
Note that this does not impact commands that do not read from standard
input; they continue to ignore it. Additionally, existing uses of the
run_on_* functions do not need to do anything differently, as the
standard input of the test environment is already connected to
/dev/null.
We do not explicitly clean up the input files because they are cleaned
up with the rest of the test repositories and their contents may be
useful for figuring out which command failed when a test case fails.

The `--auto` flag for git-pack-refs(1) allows the ref backend to decide
whether or not a repack is in order. This switch has been introduced
mostly with the "reftable" backend in mind, which already knows to
auto-compact its tables during normal operations. When the flag is set,
then it will use the same auto-compaction mechanism and thus end up
doing nothing in most cases.
The "files" backend does not have any such heuristic yet and instead
packs any loose references unconditionally. So we rewrite the complete
"packed-refs" file even if there's only a single loose reference to be
packed.
Even worse, starting with 9f6714ab3e (builtin/gc: pack refs when using
`git maintenance run --auto`, 2024-03-25), `git pack-refs --auto` is
unconditionally executed via our auto maintenance, so we end up repacking
references every single time auto maintenance kicks in. And while that
commit already mentioned that the "files" backend unconditionally packs
refs now, the author obviously didn't quite think about the consequences
thereof. So while the idea was sound, we really should have added a
heuristic to the "files" backend before implementing it.
Introduce a heuristic that decides whether or not it is worth to pack
loose references. The important factors to decide here are the number of
loose references in comparison to the overall size of the "packed-refs"
file. The bigger the "packed-refs" file, the longer it takes to rewrite
it and thus we scale up the limit of allowed loose references before we
repack.
As is the nature of heuristics, this mechansim isn't obviously
"correct", but should rather be seen as a tradeoff between how much
resources we spend packing refs and how inefficient the ref store
becomes. For all I can say, we have successfully been using the exact
same heuristic in Gitaly for several years by now.

It was reported that git-verify-pack(1) has started to crash with Git
v2.46.0 when run outside of a repository. This is another fallout from
c8aed5e8da (repository: stop setting SHA1 as the default object hash,
2024-05-07), where we have stopped setting the default hash algorithm
for `the_repository`. Consequently, code that relies on `the_hash_algo`
will now crash when it hasn't explicitly been initialized, which may be
the case when running outside of a Git repository.
The crash is not in git-verify-pack(1) but instead in git-index-pack(1),
which gets called by the former. Ideally, both of these programs should
be able to identify the hash algorithm used by the packfile and index
without having to rely on external information. But unfortunately, the
format for neither of them is completely self-describing, so it is not
possible to derive that information. This is a design issue that we
should address by introducing a new packfile version that encodes its
object hash.
For now though the more important fix is to not make either of these
programs crash anymore, which we do by falling back to SHA1 when the
object hash is unconfigured. This pessimizes reading packfiles which
use a different hash than SHA1, but restores previous behaviour.

In some cases, a user may be generating a patch for an old commit which
now has an out-of-date author or other identity. For example, consider a
team member who contributes to an internal fork of an upstream project,
but leaves before this change is submitted upstream.
In this case, the team members company address may no longer be valid,
and will thus bounce when sending email.
This can be manually avoided by editing the generated patch files, or by
carefully using --suppress-<cc|to> options. This requires a lot of
manual intervention and is easy to forget.
Git has support for mapping old email addresses and names to a canonical
name and address via the .mailmap file (and its associated mailmap.file,
mailmap.blob, and log.mailmap options).
Teach git send-email to enable mailmap support for all addresses. This
ensures that addresses point to the canonical real name and email
address.
Add the sendemail.mailmap configuration option and its associated
--mailmap (and --use-mailmap for compatibility with git log) options.
For now, the default behavior is to disable the mailmap in order to
avoid any surprises or breaking any existing setups.
These options support per-identity configuration via the
sendemail.identity configuration blocks. This enables identity-specific
configuration in cases where users may not want to enable support.
In addition, support send-email specific mailmap data via
sendemail.mailmap.file, sendemail.mailmap.blob and their
identity-specific variants.
The intention of these options is to enable mapping addresses which are
no longer valid to a current project or team maintainer. Such mappings
may change the actual person being referred to, and may not make sense
in a traditional mailmap file which is intended for updating canonical
name and address for the same individual.

git check-mailmap splits each provided contact using split_ident_line.
This function requires that the contact either be of the form "Name
<user@host>" or of the form "<user@host>". In particular, if the mail
portion of the contact is not surrounded by angle brackets,
split_ident_line will reject it.
This results in git check-mailmap rejecting attempts to translate simple
email addresses:
$ git check-mailmap user@host
fatal: unable to parse contact: user@host
This limits the usability of check-mailmap as it requires placing angle
brackets around plain email addresses.
In particular, attempting to use git check-mailmap to support mapping
addresses in git send-email is not straight forward. The sanitization
and validation functions in git send-email strip angle brackets from
plain email addresses. It is not trivial to add brackets prior to
invoking git check-mailmap.
Instead, modify check_mailmap() to allow such strings as contacts. In
particular, treat any line which cannot be split by split_ident_line as
a simple email address.
No attempt is made to actually parse the address line, or validate that
it is actually an email address. Implementing such validation is not
trivial. Besides, we weren't validating the address between angle
brackets before anyways.

When reusing chunks verbatim from an existing source pack, the function
write_reused_pack() first attempts to reuse whole words (via the
function `write_reused_pack_verbatim()`), and then individual bits (via
`write_reused_pack_one()`).
In the non-MIDX case, all of this code works fine. Likewise, in the MIDX
case, processing bits individually from the first (preferred) pack works
fine. However, processing subsequent packs in the MIDX case is broken
when there are duplicate objects among the set of MIDX'd packs.
This is because we treat the individual bit positions as valid pack
positions within the source pack(s), which does not account for gaps in
the source pack, like we see when the MIDX must break ties between
duplicate objects which appear in multiple packs.
The broken code looks like:
for (; i < reuse_packfile_bitmap->word_alloc; i++) {
for (offset = 0; offset < BITS_IN_EWORD, offset++) {
/* ... */
write_reused_pack_one(reuse_packfile->p,
pos + offset - reuse_packfile->bitmap_pos,
f, pack_start, &w_curs);
}
}
, where the second argument is incorrect and does not account for gaps.
Instead, make sure that we translate bit positions in the MIDX's
pseudo-pack order to pack positions in the respective source packs by:
- Translating the bit position (pseudo-pack order) to a MIDX position
(lexical order).
- Use the MIDX position to obtain the offset at which the given object
occurs in the source pack.
- Then translate that offset back into a pack relative position within
the source pack by calling offset_to_pack_pos().
After doing this, then we can safely use the result as a pack position.
Note that when doing single-pack reuse, as well as reusing objects from
the MIDX's preferred pack, such translation is not necessary, since
either ties are broken in favor of the preferred pack, or there are no
ties to break at all (in the case of non-MIDX bitmaps).
Failing to do this can result in strange failure modes. One example that
can occur when misinterpreting bits in the above fashion is that Git
thinks it's supposed to send a delta that the caller does not want.
Under this (incorrect) assumption, we try to look up the delta's base
(so that we can patch any OFS_DELTAs if necessary). We do this using
find_reused_offset().
But if we try and call that function for an offset belonging to an
object we did not send, we'll get back garbage. This can result in us
computing a negative fixup value, which results in memory corruption
when trying to write the (patched) OFS_DELTA header.

In our tests for multi-pack reuse, we have two helper functions:
- test_pack_objects_reused_all(), and
- test_pack_objects_reused()
which invoke pack-objects (either with `--all`, or the supplied tips via
stdin, respectively) and ensure that (a) the number of reused objects,
and (b) the number of packs which those objects were reused from both
match the expected values.
Both functions discard the output of pack-objects and assert only on the
contents of the trace2 stream.
However, if we store the pack and attempt to index it with `--strict`,
we find that a number of our tests are broken, indicating a bug within
multi-pack reuse.
That bug will be addressed in a subsequent commit. But let's first
harden these tests by trying to index the resulting pack, marking the
tests which fail appropriately.
