Split up the finish_tmp_packfile() function and use the split-up version
in pack-objects.c in preparation for moving the step of renaming the
*.idx file later as part of a function change.

Since the only other caller of finish_tmp_packfile() was in
bulk-checkin.c, and it won't be needing a change to its *.idx renaming,
provide a thin wrapper for the old function as a static function in that
file. If other callers end up needing the simpler version it could be
moved back to "pack-write.c" and "pack.h".

Line-wrap the definition of finish_tmp_packfile() to make subsequent
changes easier to read. See 0e990530ae (finish_tmp_packfile(): a
helper function, 2011-10-28) for the commit that introduced this
overly long line.

<content type='text'>
Existing callers provide the reverse index code with an array of 'struct
pack_idx_entry *'s, which is then sorted by pack order (comparing the
offsets of each object within the pack).

Prepare for the multi-pack index to write a .rev file by providing a way
to write the reverse index without an array of pack_idx_entry (which the
MIDX code does not have).

Instead, callers can invoke 'write_rev_index_positions()', which takes
an array of uint32_t's. The ith entry in this array specifies the ith
object's (in index order) position within the pack (in pack order).

Expose this new function for use in a later patch, and rewrite the
existing write_rev_file() in terms of this new function.

<id>urn:sha1:6ee353d42f389ec9454161b64ffbeb4167edebaa</id>
<content type='text'>
The approach to "fsck" the incoming objects in "index-pack" is
attractive for performance reasons (we have them already in core,
inflated and ready to be inspected), but fundamentally cannot be
applied fully when we receive more than one pack stream, as a tree
object in one pack may refer to a blob object in another pack as
".gitmodules", when we want to inspect blobs that are used as
".gitmodules" file, for example.  Teach "index-pack" to emit
objects that must be inspected later and check them in the calling
"fetch-pack" process.

* jt/transfer-fsck-across-packs:
  fetch-pack: print and use dangling .gitmodules
  fetch-pack: with packfile URIs, use index-pack arg
  http-fetch: allow custom index-pack args
  http: allow custom index-pack args

<content type='text'>
Teach index-pack to print dangling .gitmodules links after its "keep" or
"pack" line instead of declaring an error, and teach fetch-pack to check
such lines printed.

This allows the tree side of the .gitmodules link to be in one packfile
and the blob side to be in another without failing the fsck check,
because it is now fetch-pack which checks such objects after all
packfiles have been downloaded and indexed (and not index-pack on an
individual packfile, as it is before this commit).

<id>urn:sha1:8ef50d9958f7be21e38026433d30f72521b4de47</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch prepares for callers to be able to write reverse index files
to disk.

It adds the necessary machinery to write a format-compliant .rev file
from within 'write_rev_file()', which is called from
'finish_tmp_packfile()'.

Similar to the process by which the reverse index is computed in memory,
these new paths also have to sort a list of objects by their offsets
within a packfile. These new paths use a qsort() (as opposed to a radix
sort), since our specialized radix sort requires a full revindex_entry
struct per object, which is more memory than we need to allocate.

The qsort is obviously slower, but the theoretical slowdown would
require a repository with a large amount of objects, likely implying
that the time spent in, say, pack-objects during a repack would dominate
the overall runtime.

<id>urn:sha1:33add2ad7d6921489aa0cafd4a865504c3709512</id>
<content type='text'>
Let's replace the 2 different pieces of code that write a
promisor file in 'builtin/repack.c' and 'fetch-pack.c'
with a new function called 'write_promisor_file()' in
'pack-write.c' and 'pack.h'.

This might also help us in the future, if we want to put
back the ref names and associated hashes that were in
the promisor files we are repacking in 'builtin/repack.c'
as suggested by a NEEDSWORK comment just above the code
we are refactoring.

In previous patches, extern was mechanically removed from function
declarations without care to formatting, causing parameter lists to be
misaligned. Manually format changed sections such that the parameter
lists should be realigned.

Viewing this patch with 'git diff -w' should produce no output.

<title>*.[ch]: remove extern from function declarations using spatch</title>

<id>urn:sha1:554544276a604c144df45efcb060c80aa322088c</id>
<content type='text'>
There has been a push to remove extern from function declarations.
Remove some instances of "extern" for function declarations which are
caught by Coccinelle. Note that Coccinelle has some difficulty with
processing functions with `__attribute__` or varargs so some `extern`
declarations are left behind to be dealt with in a future patch.

This was the Coccinelle patch used:

	@@
	type T;
	identifier f;
	@@
	- extern
	  T f(...);

and it was run with:

	$ git ls-files \*.{c,h} |
		grep -v ^compat/ |
		xargs spatch --sp-file contrib/coccinelle/noextern.cocci --in-place

Files under `compat/` are intentionally excluded as some are directly
copied from external sources and we should avoid churning them as much
as possible.
