The "ci/run-test-slice.sh" script can be used to slice up all of our
tests into N pieces and then run each of them on a separate CI job.
This is used by both GitLab and GitHub CI to speed up Windows tests,
which would otherwise be painfully slow.
The infra itself is fueled by `test-tool path-utils slice-tests`. This
tool receives as input an "offset" and a "stride" that can be combined
to slice up tests. This framing can be misleading though: you are
expected to pass a zero-based index as "offset", and the complete number
of slices to the "stride". The latter makes sense, but it is somewhat
surprising that the offset needs to be zero-based. And this is in fact
biting us: while GitHub passes zero-based indices, GitLab passes
`$CI_NODE_INDEX`, which is a one-based indice.
Ideally, we should have verification that the parameters make sense.
And naturally, one would for example expect that it's an error to call
the binary with an offset larger than the stride. But with the current
framing as "offset" it's not even wrong to do so, as it is of course
well-defined to start at a larger offset than the stride.
This means that we get this wrong on GitLab's CI, as we pass a one based
index there, and this causes us to skip one of the tests. Interestingly,
it's not the lexicographically first test that we skip. Instead, as we
sort tests by size before slicing them, we skip the _smallest_ test.
Reframe the problem to instead talk about "slice number" and "total
number of slices". For all of our use cases this is semantically
equivalent, but it allows us to perform some verifications:
- The total number of slices must be greater than 1.
- The selected slice must be between 1 <= nr <= slices_total.
As the indices are now one-based it means that GitLab's CI is fixed.
The GitHub workflow is updated accordingly.

When running outside a repository, git merge-file ignores the
merge.conflictStyle configuration variable entirely. Since the
function receives `repo` from the caller (which is NULL outside a
repository), and repo_config() falls back to reading system and user
configuration when passed NULL, pass `repo` to repo_config()
unconditionally.
Also document that merge.conflictStyle is honored.

The merge-ours built-in opens the index to compare it against HEAD.
The machinery used to do this (i.e. run_diff_index()) is capable of
working with a sparse index, but the start-up sequence of this
command does not take the necessary steps, so we end up expanding the
index fully before doing the comparison.
In order to convince sparse-index.c:is_sparse_index_allowed() to
return true, we need to:
- Read basic configuration with git_default_config so that global
variables like core_apply_sparse_checkout are populated.
merge-ours currently does not read configuration at all.
- Set command_requires_full_index to 0.
With that, the command can work without expanding the index fully
before doing its work.

ISO C23 redefines strchr and friends that tradiotionally took
a const pointer and returned a non-const pointer derived from it to
preserve constness (i.e., if you ask for a substring in a const
string, you get a const pointer to the substring). Update code
paths that used non-const pointer to receive their results that did
not have to be non-const to adjust.
* cf/c23-const-preserving-strchr-updates-0:
gpg-interface: remove an unnecessary NULL initialization
global: constify some pointers that are not written to
The recent glibc 2.43 release had the following change listed in its
NEWS file:
For ISO C23, the functions bsearch, memchr, strchr, strpbrk, strrchr,
strstr, wcschr, wcspbrk, wcsrchr, wcsstr and wmemchr that return
pointers into their input arrays now have definitions as macros that
return a pointer to a const-qualified type when the input argument is
a pointer to a const-qualified type.
When compiling with GCC 15, which defaults to -std=gnu23, this causes
many warnings like this:
merge-ort.c: In function ‘apply_directory_rename_modifications’:
merge-ort.c:2734:36: warning: initialization discards ‘const’ qualifier from pointer target type [-Wdiscarded-qualifiers]
2734 | char *last_slash = strrchr(cur_path, '/');
| ^~~~~~~
This patch fixes the more obvious ones by making them const when we do
not write to the returned pointer.

The setup phase in 't/perf/p3400-rebase.sh' generates 100 commits to
simulate a noisy history. It currently uses a shell loop that invokes
'git add', 'git commit', 'test_seq', and 'sort' in each iteration.
This incurs significant overhead due to repeated process spawning.
Optimize the setup by using 'git fast-import' to generate the commit
history. Additionally, pre-compute the forward and reversed file contents
to avoid repetitive execution of 'seq' and 'sort'.
To ensure the test measures rebase performance against a consistent
object layout (rather than the suboptimal pack/loose objects created
by the raw import), perform a full repack (`git repack -a -d`) at the
end of the setup.
This reduces the setup time significantly while maintaining the validity
of the subsequent performance tests.

Passing a non-committish revision to git-last-modified(1) triggers the
following BUG:
git last-modified HEAD^{tree}
BUG: builtin/last-modified.c:456: paths remaining beyond boundary in last-modified
Fix this error by ensuring that the given revision peels to a commit.
This change also adds a test to verify git-last-modified(1) can operate
on an annotated tag. For this an annotated tag is added that points to
the second commit. But this causes ambiguous results when calling
git-name-rev(1) with `--tags`, because now two tags point to the same
commit. To remove this ambiguity, pass `--exclude=<tag>` to
git-name-rev(1) to exclude the new annotated tag.

In Git 2.50 and earlier, we would display failure codes and error
message as part of the status display:
$ git fetch . v1.0.0:refs/heads/foo
error: cannot update ref 'refs/heads/foo': trying to write non-commit object f665776185 to branch 'refs/heads/foo'
From .
! [new tag] v1.0.0 -> foo (unable to update local ref)
With the addition of batched updates, this information is no longer
shown to the user:
$ git fetch . v1.0.0:refs/heads/foo
From .
* [new tag] v1.0.0 -> foo
error: cannot update ref 'refs/heads/foo': trying to write non-commit object f665776185 to branch 'refs/heads/foo'
Since reference updates are batched and processed together at the end,
information around the outcome is not available during individual
reference parsing.
To overcome this, collate and delay the output to the end. Introduce
`ref_update_display_info` which will hold individual update's
information and also whether the update failed or succeeded. This
finally allows us to iterate over all such updates and print them to the
user.
Using an dynamic array and strmap does add some overhead to
'git-fetch(1)', but from benchmarking this seems to be not too bad:
Benchmark 1: fetch: many refs (refformat = files, refcount = 1000, revision = master)
Time (mean ± σ): 42.6 ms ± 1.2 ms [User: 13.1 ms, System: 29.8 ms]
Range (min … max): 40.1 ms … 45.8 ms 47 runs
Benchmark 2: fetch: many refs (refformat = files, refcount = 1000, revision = HEAD)
Time (mean ± σ): 43.1 ms ± 1.2 ms [User: 12.7 ms, System: 30.7 ms]
Range (min … max): 40.5 ms … 45.8 ms 48 runs
Summary
fetch: many refs (refformat = files, refcount = 1000, revision = master) ran
1.01 ± 0.04 times faster than fetch: many refs (refformat = files, refcount = 1000, revision = HEAD)
Another approach would be to move the status printing logic to be
handled post the transaction being committed. That however would require
adding an iterator to the ref transaction that tracks both the outcome
(success/failure) and the original refspec information for each update,
which is more involved infrastructure work compared to the strmap
approach here.

In 9d2962a7c4 (receive-pack: use batched reference updates, 2025-05-19),
git-receive-pack(1) switched to using batched reference updates. This also
introduced a regression wherein instead of providing detailed error
messages for failed referenced updates, the users were provided generic
error messages based on the error type.
Now that the updates also contain detailed error message, propagate
those to the client via 'rp_error'. The detailed error messages can be
very verbose, for e.g. in the files backend, when trying to write a
non-commit object to a branch, you would see:
! [remote rejected] 3eaec9ccf3a53f168362a6b3fdeb73426fb9813d ->
branch (cannot update ref 'refs/heads/branch': trying to write
non-commit object 3eaec9ccf3a53f168362a6b3fdeb73426fb9813d to branch
'refs/heads/branch')
Here the refname is repeated multiple times due to how error messages
are propagated and filled over the code stack. This potentially can be
cleaned up in a future commit.
