The recently introduced commit-graph auxiliary data is incompatible
with mechanisms such as replace &amp; grafts that "breaks" immutable
nature of the object reference relationship.  Disable optimizations
based on its use (and updating existing commit-graph) when these
incompatible features are in use in the repository.

* ds/commit-graph-with-grafts:
  commit-graph: close_commit_graph before shallow walk
  commit-graph: not compatible with uninitialized repo
  commit-graph: not compatible with grafts
  commit-graph: not compatible with replace objects
  test-repository: properly init repo
  commit-graph: update design document
  refs.c: upgrade for_each_replace_ref to be a each_repo_ref_fn callback
  refs.c: migrate internal ref iteration to pass thru repository argument

<content type='text'>
Call close_commit_graph() when about to start a rev-list walk that
includes shallow commits. This is necessary in code paths that "fake"
shallow commits for the sake of fetch. Specifically, test 351 in
t5500-fetch-pack.sh runs

	git fetch --shallow-exclude one origin

with a file-based transfer. When the "remote" has a commit-graph, we do
not prevent the commit-graph from being loaded, but then the commits are
intended to be dynamically transferred into shallow commits during
get_shallow_commits_by_rev_list(). By closing the commit-graph before
this call, we prevent this interaction.

Augment commit_graph_compatible(r) to return false when the given
repository r has commit grafts or is a shallow clone. Test that in these
situations we ignore existing commit-graph files and we do not write new
commit-graph files.

Create new method commit_graph_compatible(r) to check if a given
repository r is compatible with the commit-graph feature. Fill the
method with a check to see if replace-objects exist. Test this
interaction succeeds, including ignoring an existing commit-graph and
failing to write a new commit-graph. However, we do ensure that
we write a new commit-graph by setting read_replace_refs to 0, thereby
ignoring the replace refs.

The API to iterate over all objects learned to optionally list
objects in the order they appear in packfiles, which helps locality
of access if the caller accesses these objects while as objects are
enumerated.

  for_each_*_object: move declarations to object-store.h
  cat-file: use a single strbuf for all output
  cat-file: split batch "buf" into two variables
  cat-file: use oidset check-and-insert
  cat-file: support "unordered" output for --batch-all-objects
  cat-file: rename batch_{loose,packed}_object callbacks
  t1006: test cat-file --batch-all-objects with duplicates

<title>for_each_packed_object: support iterating in pack-order</title>

<id>urn:sha1:736eb88fdc8a2dea4302114d2f74b580d0f83cfe</id>
<content type='text'>
We currently iterate over objects within a pack in .idx
order, which uses the object hashes. That means that it
is effectively random with respect to the location of the
object within the pack. If you're going to access the actual
object data, there are two reasons to move linearly through
the pack itself:

  1. It improves the locality of access in the packfile. In
     the cold-cache case, this may mean fewer disk seeks, or
     better usage of disk cache.

  2. We store related deltas together in the packfile. Which
     means that the delta base cache can operate much more
     efficiently if we visit all of those related deltas in
     sequence, as the earlier items are likely to still be
     in the cache.  Whereas if we visit the objects in
     random order, our cache entries are much more likely to
     have been evicted by unrelated deltas in the meantime.

So in general, if you're going to access the object contents
pack order is generally going to end up more efficient.

But if you're simply generating a list of object names, or
if you're going to end up sorting the result anyway, you're
better off just using the .idx order, as finding the pack
order means generating the in-memory pack-revindex.
According to the numbers in 8b8dfd5132 (pack-revindex:
radix-sort the revindex, 2013-07-11), that takes about 200ms
for linux.git, and 20ms for git.git (those numbers are a few
years old but are still a good ballpark).

That makes it a good optimization for some cases (we can
save tens of seconds in git.git by having good locality of
delta access, for a 20ms cost), but a bad one for others
(e.g., right now "cat-file --batch-all-objects
--batch-check="%(objectname)" is 170ms in git.git, so adding
20ms to that is noticeable).

Hence this patch makes it an optional flag. You can't
actually do any interesting timings yet, as it's not plumbed
through to any user-facing tools like cat-file. That will
come in a later patch.

<title>commit-graph: add repo arg to graph readers</title>

<id>urn:sha1:dade47c06cf849b0ca180a8e6383b55ea6f75812</id>
<content type='text'>
Add a struct repository argument to the functions in commit-graph.h that
read the commit graph. (This commit does not affect functions that write
commit graphs.)

Because the commit graph functions can now read the commit graph of any
repository, the global variable core_commit_graph has been removed.
Instead, the config option core.commitGraph is now read on the first
time in a repository that a commit is attempted to be parsed using its
commit graph.

This commit includes a test that exercises the functionality on an
arbitrary repository that is not the_repository.
