The `each_ref_fn` callback function type is used across our code base
for several different functions that iterate through reference. There's
a bunch of callbacks implementing this type, which makes any changes to
the callback signature extremely noisy. An example of the required churn
is e8207717f1 (refs: add referent to each_ref_fn, 2024-08-09): adding a
single argument required us to change 48 files.
It was already proposed back then [1] that we might want to introduce a
wrapper structure to alleviate the pain going forward. While this of
course requires the same kind of global refactoring as just introducing
a new parameter, it at least allows us to more change the callback type
afterwards by just extending the wrapper structure.
One counterargument to this refactoring is that it makes the structure
more opaque. While it is obvious which callsites need to be fixed up
when we change the function type, it's not obvious anymore once we use
a structure. That being said, we only have a handful of sites that
actually need to populate this wrapper structure: our ref backends,
"refs/iterator.c" as well as very few sites that invoke the iterator
callback functions directly.
Introduce this wrapper structure so that we can adapt the iterator
interfaces more readily.

All repository structure stats are outputted in a human-friendly table
form. This format is not suitable for machine parsing. Add a --format
option that supports three output modes: `table`, `keyvalue`, and `nul`.
The `table` mode is the default format and prints the same table output
as before.
With the `keyvalue` mode, each line of output contains a key-value pair
of a repository stat. The '=' character is used to delimit between keys
and values. The `nul` mode is similar to `keyvalue`, but key-values are
delimited by a NUL character instead of a newline. Also, instead of a
'=' character to delimit between keys and values, a newline character is
used. This allows stat values to support special characters without
having to cquote them. These two new modes provides output that is more
machine-friendly.

The amount of objects in a repository can provide insight regarding its

The structure of a repository's history can have huge impacts on the
performance and health of the repository itself. Currently, Git lacks a
means to surface repository metrics regarding its structure/shape via a
single command. Acquiring this information requires users to be familiar
with the relevant data points and the various Git commands required to
surface them. To fill this gap, supplemental tools such as git-sizer(1)
have been developed.
To allow users to more readily identify repository structure related
information, introduce the "structure" subcommand in git-repo(1). The
goal of this subcommand is to eventually provide similar functionality
to git-sizer(1), but natively in Git.
The initial version of this command only iterates through all references
in the repository and tracks the count of branches, tags, remote refs,
and other reference types. The corresponding information is displayed in
a human-friendly table formatted in a very similar manner to
git-sizer(1). The width of each table column is adjusted automatically
to satisfy the requirements of the widest row contained.
Subsequent commits will surface additional relevant data points to
output and also provide other more machine-friendly output formats.

Sometimes people want to specify additional configuration data

When the value given to a configuration variable whose type is
pathname wants to signal such an optional file, it can be marked by
prepending ":(optional)" in front of it. Such a setting that is
marked optional would avoid getting the command barf for a missing
file, as an optional configuration setting that names a missing

top then they go to the very first hunk, no matter if it has already
been decided on.
The option j does basically the same move. Technically it is not
allowed if there's no undecided hunk towards the bottom, but the
variable "permitted" is never reset, so this permission is retained
from the very first hunk. That may a bug, but this behavior is at
least consistent with y, n, and e and arguably more useful than
refusing to move.
Improve the roll-over behavior of these four options by moving to the
first undecided hunk instead of hunk 1, consistent with what they do
when not rolling over.
Also adjust the error message for j, as it will only be shown if
there's no other undecided hunk in either direction.

In e6c06e87a2 (last-modified: fix bug when some paths remain unhandled,
2025-09-18), we have fixed a bug where under certain circumstances,
git-last-modified(1) would BUG because there's still some unhandled
paths. The fix claims that the root cause here is criss-cross merges,
and it adds a test case that seemingly exercises this.
Curiously, this test case fails on some systems because the actual
output does not match our expectations:
diff --git a/expect b/actual
index 5271607..bdc620e 100644
--- a/expect
--- b/actual
@@ -1,3 +1,3 @@
km3 a
-k2 k
+km2 k
1 file
error: last command exited with $?=1
not ok 15 - last-modified with subdir and criss-cross merge
The output we see is git-name-rev(1) with `--annotate-stdin`. What it
does is to take the output of git-last-modified(1), which contains
object IDs of the blamed commits, and convert those object IDs into the
names of the corresponding tags. Interestingly, we indeed have both "k2"
and "km2" as tags, and even more interestingly both of these tags point
to the same commit. So the output we get isn't _wrong_, as the tags are
ambiguous.
But why do both of these tags point to the same commit? "km2" really is
supposed to be a merge, but due to the way the test is constructed the
merge turns into a fast-forward merge. Which means that the resulting
commit-graph does not even contain a criss-cross merge in the first place!
A quick test though shows that the test indeed triggers the bug, so
the initial analysis that the behaviour is triggered by such merges
must be wrong.
And it is: seemingly, the issue isn't with criss-cross merges, but
rather with a graph where different files in the same directory were
modified on both sides of a merge.
Refactor the test so that we explicitly test for this specific situation
instead of mentioning the "criss-cross merge" red herring. As the test
is very specific to the actual layout of the repository we also adapt it
to use its own standalone repository.
Note that this requires us to drop the `test_when_finished` call in
`check_last_modified` because it's not supported to execute that
function in a subshell.
This refactoring also fixes the original tag ambiguity that caused us to
fail on some platforms.

The 'cache_ref_iterator_seek()' function is used to seek the
`ref_iterator` to the desired reference in the ref-cache mechanism. We
use the seeking functionality to implement the '--start-after' flag in
'git-for-each-ref(1)'.
When using the files-backend with packed-refs, it is possible that some
of the refs directories are empty. For e.g. just after repacking, the
'refs/heads' directory would be empty. The ref-cache seek mechanism,
doesn't take this into consideration when descending into a
subdirectory, and makes an out of bounds access, causing SEGFAULT as we
try to access entries within the directory. Fix this by breaking out of
the loop when we enter an empty directory.
Since we start with the base directory of 'refs/' which is never empty,
it is okay to perform this check after the first iteration in the
`do..while` clause.
Add tests which simulate this behavior and also provide coverage over
using the feature over packed-refs.

If one of the two provided paths for git diff --no-index ends in a '/',
a failure similar to the following occurs:
$ git diff --no-index -- /tmp/ /tmp/ ':!'
fatal: `pos + len' is too far after the end of the buffer
This occurs because of an incorrect calculation of the skip lengths in
diff_no_index(). The code wants to calculate the length of the string,
but add one in case the string doesn't end with a slash.
The method it uses is incorrect, as it always checks the trailing NUL
character of the string. This will never be a '/', so we always add one.
In the event that we *do* have a trailing slash, this will create an
off-by-one length error later when using the skip value.
The most straightforward fix would be to correct the skip1 and skip2
lengths by using ends_with().
However, Johannes made a good point that the existing logic is wasting a
lot of computation. We generate the match string by copying the path in
and then skipping almost all of it immediately with a potentially
expensive memmove() from the strbuf_remove() call. We also re-initialize
the match stringbuf each time we call read_directory_contents.
The read_directory_contents really wants a path that is rooted at the
start of the directory scan. We're currently building this by taking the
full path and stripping out the start portion. Instead, replace this
logic by building up the portion of the match as we go.
Start by initializing two strbuf in diff_no_index containing the empty
string. Pass these into queue_diff, which in turn passes the appropriate
left or right side into read_directory_contents.
As before, we build up the matches by appending elements to the match
path and then clearing them using strbuf_setlen.
In the recursive portion of the queue_diff algorithm, we build up new
match paths the same way that we build up new buffer paths, by appending
the elements and then clearing them with strbuf_setlen after each
iteration. This is cheaper as it avoids repeated allocations, and is a
bit simpler to track what is going on.
Add a couple of test cases that pass in paths already ending in '/', to
ensure the tests cover this regression.

git-format-patch(1) supports Git notes by showing them beneath the
patch/commit message, similar to git-log(1). The command also supports
showing those same notes ref names in the range diff output.
Note *the same* ref names; any Git notes options or configuration
variables need to be handed off to the range-diff machinery. This works
correctly in the case when the range diff is on the cover letter. But it
does not work correctly when the output is a single patch with an
embedded range diff.
Concretely, git-format-patch(1) needs to pass `--[no-]notes` options on
to the range-diff subprocess in `range-diff.c`. Range diffs for single-
commit series are handled in `log-tree.c`. But `log-tree.c` had no
access to any `log_arg` variable before we added it to `rev_info` in the

When a hunk is split, each of the new hunks inherits whether it is
selected or not from the original hunk. If a selected hunk is split
all of the new hunks are marked as "selected" and the user is only
prompted with the first of the split hunks. The user is not asked
whether or not they wish to select the rest of the new hunks. This
means that if they wish to deselect any of the new hunks apart from
the first one they have to navigate back to the hunk they want to
deselect before they can deselect it. This is unfortunate as the user
is presumably splitting the original hunk because they only want to
select some sub-set of it.
Instead mark all the new hunks as "undecided" so that the user is
prompted whether they wish to select each one in turn. In the case
where the user only wants to change the selection of the first of
the split hunks they will now have to do more work re-selecting the
remaining split hunks. However, changing the selection of any of the
other newly created hunks is now much simpler as the user no-longer has
