A few commands don't take any options at all, and confirm this by
checking argc. After that they have no need to look at argv, but we're
still stuck with it by convention. Let's annotate these cases so that
the compiler doesn't complain with -Wunused-parameter.
Note that in scalar and get-tar-commit-id, we're forced to keep argv by
calling convention (the functions must match cmd_main() and builtin
cmd_foo() conventions, respectively). In diff, these are subcommand
modes that we call individually, so we _could_ just drop the argv
parameters entirely. But it's weird to pass argc without argv, and it
implies that the caller knows that the subcommands aren't interested in
further arguments. It's less confusing to just keep them and silence the
compiler warning.

All builtins receive a "prefix" parameter, but it is only useful if they
need to adjust filenames given by the user on the command line. For
builtins that do not even call parse_options(), they often don't look at
the prefix at all, and -Wunused-parameter complains.
Let's annotate those to silence the compiler warning. I gave a quick
scan of each of these cases, and it seems like they don't have anything
they _should_ be using the prefix for (i.e., there is no hidden bug that
we are missing). The only questionable cases I saw were:
- in git-unpack-file, we create a tempfile which will always be at the
root of the repository, even if the command is run from a subdir.
Arguably this should be created in the subdir from which we're run
(as we report the path only as a relative name). However, nobody has
complained, and I'm hesitant to change something that is deep
plumbing going back to April 2005 (though I think within our
scripts, the sole caller in git-merge-one-file would be OK, as it
moves to the toplevel itself).
- in fetch-pack, local-filesystem remotes are taken as relative to the
project root, not the current directory. So:
git init server.git
[...put stuff in server.git...]
git init client.git
cd client.git
mkdir subdir
cd subdir
git fetch-pack ../../server.git ...
won't work, as we quietly move to the top of the repository before
interpreting the path (so "../server.git" would work). This is
weird, but again, nobody has complained and this is how it has
always worked. And this is how "git fetch" works, too. Plus it
raises questions about how a configured remote like:
git config remote.origin.url ../server.git
should behave. I can certainly come up with a reasonable set of
behavior, but it may not be worth stirring up complications in a
plumbing tool.
So I've left the behavior untouched in both of those cases. If anybody
really wants to revisit them, it's easy enough to drop the UNUSED
marker. This commit is just about removing them as obstacles to turning
on -Wunused-parameter all the time.

It's usually a bad idea for a builtin's cmd_foo() to ignore the "prefix"
argument it gets, as it needs to prepend that string when accessing any
paths given by the user.
But if a builtin does not ask for the git wrapper to run repository
setup (via the RUN_SETUP or RUN_SETUP_GENTLY flags), then we know the
prefix will always be NULL (it is adjusting for the chdir() done during
repo setup, but there cannot be one if we did not set up the repo). In
those cases it's OK to ignore "prefix", but it's worth annotating for a
few reasons:
1. It serves as documentation to somebody reading the code about what
we expect.
2. If the flags in git.c ever change, the run-time assertion may help
detect the problem (though only if the command is run from a
subdirectory of the repository).
3. It notes to the compiler that we are OK ignoring "prefix". In
particular, this silences -Wunused-parameter. It _could_ also help
the compiler generate better code (because it will know the prefix
is NULL), but in practice this is quite unlikely to matter.
Note that I've only added this annotation to commands which triggered
-Wunused-parameter. It would be correct to add it to any builtin which
doesn't ask for RUN_SETUP, but most of the rest of them do the sensible
thing with "prefix" by passing it to parse_options(). So they're much
more likely to just work if they ever switched to RUN_SETUP, and aren't
worth annotating.

Our builtins receive a "prefix" argument as part of their cmd_foo()
function. We should always pass this to parse_options() if we're calling
it, as it may be used for OPT_FILENAME() options.
In the cases here, there's no option that would use it, so we're not
fixing any bug. This is just future-proofing and setting a good example
(plus quelling some -Wunused-parameter warnings).
Note in the case of revert/cherry-pick, that we plumb the prefix through
to run_sequencer(), as those builtins are just thin wrappers around it.

In cmd_fast_import(), we ignore the "prefix" argument entirely, even
though it tells us how we may have changed directory to the root of the
repository earlier in the process. Which means that if you run it from a
subdir and point to paths in the filesystem, like:
cd subdir
git fast-import --import-marks=foo <dump
then it will look for "foo" in the root of the repository, not the
current directory ("subdir/") which the user would have expected.
We can fix this by recording the prefix and using it as appropriate
whenever we open a file for reading or writing. I found each of these by
looking for cases where we call fopen() within fast-import.c, so this
should cover all cases. The new test triggers each one, as well as
making sure we don't accidentally apply the prefix when --relative-marks
is in use (since that option interprets some paths as relative to a
specific directory).

In c3b58472be (pack-redundant: gauge the usage before proposing its
removal, 2020-08-25), we added a big, ugly warning when pack-redundant
is run. The plan there indicated that we would ratchet that up to an
error before finally removing it. Since it has been 2.5 years (and 9
releases) since then, let's continue with the plan.
Note that we did get one bite on the warning, which was somebody asking
about alternatives:
https://lore.kernel.org/git/CAKvOHKAFXQwt4D8yUCCkf_TQL79mYaJ=KAKhtpDNTvHJFuX1NA@mail.gmail.com/
but we didn't undo the ugly warning (and the advice continues to be "use
repack -d" instead).
There was also some discussion around the time of the deprecation that
pack-redundant was invoked by the bitbake tool, and it still seems to do
so now:
https://git.openembedded.org/bitbake
That use should probably just go away in favor of an occasional repack
(which probably even happens via auto-gc after fetch these days).
But since neither of those data points caused us to cancel the
deprecation plan by dropping the warning, it seems like we should
proceed with the next step.

The anonymization code has a specific generator callback for each type
of data (e.g., one for paths, one for oids, and so on). These all take a
"data" parameter, but none of them use it for anything. Which is not
surprising, as the point is to generate a new name independent of any
input, and each function keeps its own static counter.
We added the extra pointer in d5bf91fde4 (fast-export: add a "data"
callback parameter to anonymize_str(), 2020-06-23) to handle
--anonymize-map parsing, but that turned out to be awkward itself, and
was recently dropped.
So let's get rid of this "data" parameter that nobody is using, both
from the generators and from anonymize_str() which plumbed it through.
This simplifies the code, and makes -Wunused-parameter happier.

When we handle an --anonymize-map option, we parse the orig/anon pair,
and then feed the "orig" string to anonymize_str(), along with a
generator function that duplicates the "anon" string to be cached in the
map.
This works, because anonymize_str() says "ah, there is no mapping yet
for orig; I'll add one from the generator". But there are some
downsides:
1. It's a bit too clever, as it's not obvious what the code is trying
to do or why it works.
2. It requires allowing generator functions to take an extra void
pointer, which is not something any of the normal callers of
anonymize_str() want.
3. It does the wrong thing if the same token is provided twice.
When there are conflicting options, like:
git fast-export --anonymize \
--anonymize-map=foo:one \
--anonymize-map=foo:two
we usually let the second one override the first. But by using
anonymize_str(), which has first-one-wins logic, we do the
opposite.
So instead of relying on anonymize_str(), let's directly add the entry
ourselves. We can tweak the tests to show that we handle overridden
options correctly now.

When anonymizing output, there's only one spot where we generate new
entries to add to our hashmap: when anonymize_str() doesn't find an
entry, we use the generate() callback to make one and add it. Let's pull
that into its own function in preparation for another caller.
Note that we'll add one extra feature. In anonymize_str(), we know that
we won't find an existing entry in the hashmap (since it will only try
to add after failing to find one). But other callers won't have the same
behavior, so we should catch this case and free the now-dangling entry.

call functions on a zero-initialized table; it will just correctly
return NULL, since there is no match.
This simplifies the code a little, and also lets us keep the
initialization line closer to when we add an entry (which is when the
hashmap really does need to be totally initialized). That will help

The previous change implemented the ahead_behind() method, including an
algorithm to compute the ahead/behind values for a number of commit tips
relative to a number of commit bases. Now, integrate that algorithm as
part of 'git for-each-ref' hidden behind a new format atom,
ahead-behind. This naturally extends to 'git branch' and 'git tag'
builtins, as well.
This format allows specifying multiple bases, if so desired, and all
matching references are compared against all of those bases. For this
reason, failing to read a reference provided from these atoms results in
an error.
In order to translate the ahead_behind() method information to the
format output code in ref-filter.c, we must populate arrays of
ahead_behind_count structs. In struct ref_array, we store the full array
that will be passed to ahead_behind(). In struct ref_array_item, we
store an array of pointers that point to the relvant items within the
full array. In this way, we can pull all relevant ahead/behind values
directly when formatting output for a specific item. It also ensures the
lifetime of the ahead_behind_count structs matches the time that the
array is being used.
Add specific tests of the ahead/behind counts in t6600-test-reach.sh, as
it has an interesting repository shape. In particular, its merging
strategy and its use of different commit-graphs would demonstrate over-
counting if the ahead_behind() method did not already account for that
possibility.
Also add tests for the specific for-each-ref, branch, and tag builtins.
In the case of 'git tag', there are intersting cases that happen when
some of the selected tips are not commits. This requires careful logic
around commits_nr in the second loop of filter_ahead_behind(). Also, the
test in t7004 is carefully located to avoid being dependent on the GPG
prereq. It also avoids using the test_commit helper, as that will add
ticks to the time and disrupt the expected timestamps in later tag
tests.
Also add performance tests in a new p1300-graph-walks.sh script. This
will be useful for more uses in the future, but for now compare the
ahead-behind counting algorithm in 'git for-each-ref' to the naive
implementation by running 'git rev-list --count' processes for each
input.
For the Git source code repository, the improvement is already obvious:
Test this tree
---------------------------------------------------------------
1500.2: ahead-behind counts: git for-each-ref 0.07(0.07+0.00)
1500.3: ahead-behind counts: git branch 0.07(0.06+0.00)

1500.5: ahead-behind counts: git rev-list 1.32(1.04+0.27)
But the standard performance benchmark is the Linux kernel repository,
which demosntrates a significant improvement:

1500.2: ahead-behind counts: git for-each-ref 0.27(0.24+0.02)

1500.5: ahead-behind counts: git rev-list 4.57(4.03+0.54)

Add a new --stdin option to instead read the patterns from standard

When reading from stdin, we populate the filter.name_patterns array

When fetching from a remote, we not only print the actual references

across two different callsites with some non-trivial logic to compute
the anonymized URL. Furthermore, we're using global state to track
whether we have already shown the URL to the user or not.
Refactor the code by moving it into `format_display()`. Like this, we
can convert the global variable into a member of `display_state`. And
second, we can deduplicate the logic to compute the anonymized URL.

The function `format_display()` is used to print a single reference
update to a buffer which will then ultimately be printed by the caller.
This architecture causes us to duplicate some logic across the different
callsites of this function. This makes it hard to follow the code as
some parts of the logic are located in one place, while other parts of
the logic are located in a different place. Furthermore, by having the
logic scattered around it becomes quite hard to implement a new output
format for the reference updates.
We can make the logic a whole lot easier to understand by making the
`format_display()` function self-contained so that it handles formatting
and printing of the references. This will eventually allow us to easily
implement a completely different output format, but also opens the door
to conditionally print to either stdout or stderr depending on the
output format.
As a first step towards that goal we move the formatting directive used
by both callers to print a single reference update into this function.

Before printing the name of the local references that would be updated

local reference. This restricts our ability to introduce new output
formats that might want to print the full reference name.
Right now, all callsites except one are prettifying the reference name
anyway. And the only callsite that doesn't passes `FETCH_HEAD` as the
hardcoded reference name to `format_display()`, which would never be
changed by a call to `prettify_refname()` anyway. So let's refactor the

mode in this case.
2. besides "receive-pack" and "upload-pack", there's one other value
we'd expect: "upload-archive" for handling "git archive --remote".
Like receive-pack, this doesn't understand v2, and should use the
v0 protocol.
In practice, neither of these causes bugs in the real world so far. We
do send a "we understand v2" probe to the server, but since no server
implements v2 for anything but upload-pack, it's simply ignored. But
this would eventually become a problem if we do implement v2 for those
endpoints, as older clients would falsely claim to understand it,
leading to a server response they can't parse.
We can fix (1) by passing in both the program path and the "name" of the
operation. I treat the name as a string here, because that's the pattern
set in transport_connect(), which is one of our callers (we were simply
throwing away the "name" value there before).
We can fix (2) by allowing only known-v2 protocols ("upload-pack"),
rather than blocking unknown ones ("receive-pack" and "upload-archive").
That will mean whoever eventually implements v2 push will have to adjust
this list, but that's reasonable. We'll do the safe, conservative thing
(sticking to v0) by default, and anybody working on v2 will quickly
realize this spot needs to be updated.
The new tests cover the receive-pack and upload-archive cases above, and
re-confirm that we allow v2 with an arbitrary "--upload-pack" path (that
already worked before this patch, of course, but it would be an easy
thing to break if we flipped the allow/block logic without also handling
"name" separately).
Here are a few miscellaneous implementation notes, since I had to do a
little head-scratching to understand who calls what:
- transport_connect() is called only for git-upload-archive. For
non-http git remotes, that resolves to the virtual connect_git()
function (which then calls git_connect(); confused yet?). So
plumbing through "name" in connect_git() covers that.
- for regular fetches and pushes, callers use higher-level functions
like transport_fetch_refs(). For non-http git remotes, that means
calling git_connect() under the hood via connect_setup(). And that
uses the "for_push" flag to decide which name to use.
- likewise, plumbing like fetch-pack and send-pack may call
git_connect() directly; they each know which name to use.
- for remote helpers (including http), we already have separate
parameters for "name" and "exec" (another name for "prog"). In
process_connect_service(), we feed the "name" to the helper via
"connect" or "stateless-connect" directives.
There's also a "servpath" option, which can be used to tell the
helper about the "exec" path. But no helpers we implement support
it! For http it would be useless anyway (no reasonable server
implementation will allow you to send a shell command to run the
server). In theory it would be useful for more obscure helpers like
remote-ext, but even there it is not implemented.
It's tempting to get rid of it simply to reduce confusion, but we
have publicly documented it since it was added in fa8c097cc9
(Support remote helpers implementing smart transports, 2009-12-09),
so it's possible some helper in the wild is using it.
- So for v2, helpers (again, including http) are mainly used via
stateless-connect, driven by the main program. But they do still
need to decide whether to do a v2 probe. And so there's similar
logic in remote-curl.c's discover_refs() that looks for
"git-receive-pack". But it's not buggy in the same way. Since it
doesn't support servpath, it is always dealing with a "service"
string like "git-receive-pack". And since it doesn't support
straight "connect", it can't be used for "upload-archive".
So we could leave that spot alone. But I've updated it here to match
the logic we're changing in connect_git(). That seems like the least
confusing thing for somebody who has to touch both of these spots
later (say, to add v2 push support). I didn't add a new test to make
sure this doesn't break anything; we already have several tests (in
t5551 and elsewhere) that make sure we are using v2 over http.

When git-rebase invokes format-patch, it wants to make sure we use the
normal prefixes, and are not confused by diff.noprefix or similar. When
this was added in 5b220a6876 (Add --src/dst-prefix to git-formt-patch
in git-rebase.sh, 2010-09-09), we only had --src-prefix and --dst-prefix
to do so, which requires re-specifying the prefixes we expect to see.
These days we can say what we want more directly: just use the defaults.
This is a minor cleanup that should have no behavior change, but
hopefully the result expresses more clearly what the code is trying to
accomplish.
