reachable: convert to use `odb_for_each_object()`

2026-01-26T16:26:08Z

To figure out which objects expired objects we enumerate all loose and packed objects individually so that we can figure out their respective mtimes. Refactor the code to instead use `odb_for_each_object()` with a request that ask for the object mtime instead. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

odb: rename `FOR_EACH_OBJECT_*` flags

2026-01-26T16:26:06Z

Rename the `FOR_EACH_OBJECT_*` flags to have an `ODB_` prefix. This prepares us for a new upcoming `odb_for_each_object()` function and ensures that both the function and its flags have the same prefix. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

packfile: refactor kept-pack cache to work with packfile stores

2026-01-09T14:40:06Z

The kept pack cache is a cache of packfiles that are marked as kept either via an accompanying ".kept" file or via an in-memory flag. The cache can be retrieved via `kept_pack_cache()`, where one needs to pass in a repository. Ultimately though the kept-pack cache is a property of the packfile store, and this causes problems in a subsequent commit where we want to move down the packfile store to be a per-object-source entity. Prepare for this and refactor the kept-pack cache to work on top of a packfile store instead. While at it, rename both the function and flags specific to the kept-pack cache so that they can be properly attributed to the respective subsystems.

refs: introduce wrapper struct for `each_ref_fn`

2025-11-04T15:32:24Z

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. [1]: Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

config: drop `git_config_get_string_multi()` wrapper

2025-07-23T15:15:19Z

In 036876a1067 (config: hide functions using `the_repository` by default, 2024-08-13) we have moved around a bunch of functions in the config subsystem that depend on `the_repository`. Those function have been converted into mere wrappers around their equivalent function that takes in a repository as parameter, and the intent was that we'll eventually remove those wrappers to make the dependency on the global repository variable explicit at the callsite. Follow through with that intent and remove `git_config_get_string_multi()`. All callsites are adjusted so that they use `repo_config_get_string_multi(the_repository, ...)` instead. While some callsites might already have a repository available, this mechanical conversion is the exact same as the current situation and thus cannot cause any regression. Those sites should eventually be cleaned up in a later patch series. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

object-file: get rid of `the_repository` in loose object iterators

2025-07-17T05:16:17Z

The iterators for loose objects still rely on `the_repository`. Refactor them: - `for_each_loose_file_in_objdir()` is refactored so that the caller is now expected to pass an `odb_source` as parameter instead of the path to that source. Furthermore, it is renamed accordingly to `for_each_loose_file_in_source()`. - `for_each_loose_object()` is refactored to take in an object database now and calls the above function in a loop. This allows us to get rid of the global dependency. Adjust callers accordingly. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

odb: rename `oid_object_info()`

2025-07-01T21:46:37Z

Rename `oid_object_info()` to `odb_read_object_info()` as well as their `_extended()` variant to match other functions related to the object database and our modern coding guidelines. Introduce compatibility wrappers so that any in-flight topics will continue to compile. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

object-store: move function declarations to their respective subsystems

2025-04-29T17:08:12Z

We carry declarations for a couple of functions in "object-store.h" that are not defined in "object-store.c", but in a different subsystem. Move these declarations to the respective headers whose matching code files carry the corresponding definition. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano
