<id>urn:sha1:2588f6ed8bd4e31c1ea1ae35f9f668452b46f1ef</id>
<content type='text'>
The `prune_shallow()` function wants a full reachability check to be
completed before it goes to work, to ensure that all unreachable entries
are removed from the shallow file.

However, in the upcoming patch we do not even want to go that far. We
really only need to remove entries corresponding to pruned commits, i.e.
to commits that no longer exist.

Let's support that use case.

Rather than extending the signature of `prune_shallow()` to accept
another Boolean, let's turn it into a bit field and declare constants,
for readability.

<title>tag: add repository argument to deref_tag</title>

<id>urn:sha1:a74093da5ed601a09fa158e5ba6f6f14c1142a3e</id>
<content type='text'>
Add a repository argument to allow the callers of deref_tag
to be more specific about which repository to act on. This is a small
mechanical change; it doesn't change the implementation to handle
repositories other than the_repository yet.

As with the previous commits, use a macro to catch callers passing a
repository other than the_repository at compile time.

The in-core "commit" object had an all-purpose "void *util" field,
which was tricky to use especially in library-ish part of the
code.  All of the existing uses of the field has been migrated to a
more dedicated "commit-slab" mechanism and the field is eliminated.

* nd/commit-util-to-slab:
  commit.h: delete 'util' field in struct commit
  merge: use commit-slab in merge remote desc instead of commit-&gt;util
  log: use commit-slab in prepare_bases() instead of commit-&gt;util
  show-branch: note about its object flags usage
  show-branch: use commit-slab for commit-name instead of commit-&gt;util
  name-rev: use commit-slab for rev-name instead of commit-&gt;util
  bisect.c: use commit-slab for commit weight instead of commit-&gt;util
  revision.c: use commit-slab for show_source
  sequencer.c: use commit-slab to associate todo items to commits
  sequencer.c: use commit-slab to mark seen commits
  shallow.c: use commit-slab for commit depth instead of commit-&gt;util
  describe: use commit-slab for commit names instead of commit-&gt;util
  blame: use commit-slab for blame suspects instead of commit-&gt;util
  commit-slab: support shared commit-slab

<id>urn:sha1:e34de73c5653c713e6edddc5a12c8befc50d311f</id>
<content type='text'>
Shallow clones with --shallow-since or --shalow-exclude work by
running rev-list to get all reachable commits, then draw a boundary
between reachable and unreachable and send "shallow" requests based on
that.

The code does miss one corner case: if rev-list returns nothing, we'll
have no border and we'll send no shallow requests back to the client
(i.e. no history cuts). This essentially means a full clone (or a full
branch if the client requests just one branch). One example is the
oldest commit is older than what is specified by --shallow-since.

To avoid this, if rev-list returns nothing, we abort the clone/fetch.
The user could adjust their request (e.g. --shallow-since further back
in the past) and retry.

Another possible option for this case is to fall back to a default
depth (like depth 1). But I don't like too much magic that way because
we may return something unexpected to the user. If they request
"history since 2008" and we return a single depth at 2000, that might
break stuff for them. It is better to tell them that something is
wrong and let them take the best course of action.

Note that we need to die() in get_shallow_commits_by_rev_list()
instead of just checking for empty result from its caller
deepen_by_rev_list() and handling the error there. The reason is,
empty result could be a valid case: if you have commits in year 2013
and you request --shallow-since=year.2000 then you should get a full
clone (i.e. empty result).

Developer support update, by using BUG() macro instead of die() to
mark codepaths that should not happen more clearly.

  Convert remaining die*(BUG) messages
  Replace all die("BUG: ...") calls by BUG() ones

It's done so that commit-&gt;util can be removed. See more explanation in
the commit that removes commit-&gt;util.

While at there, plug a leak for keeping track of depth in this code.
