2025-04-17parse-options: rename `OPT_MAGNITUDE()` to `OPT_UNSIGNED()`Patrick Steinhardt1-4/+4
With the preceding commit, `OPT_INTEGER()` has learned to support unit factors. Consequently, the major differencen between `OPT_INTEGER()` and `OPT_MAGNITUDE()` isn't the support of unit factors anymore, as both of them do support them now. Instead, the difference is that one handles signed and the other handles unsigned integers. Adapt the name of `OPT_MAGNITUDE()` accordingly by renaming it to `OPT_UNSIGNED()`.

The "object-store-ll.h" header has been introduced to keep transitive header dependendcies and compile times at bay. Now that we have created a new "object-store.c" file though we can easily move the last remaining additional bit of "object-store.h", the `odb_path_map`, out of the header. Do so.

2025-03-21midx: implement writing incremental MIDX bitmapsTaylor Blau1-1/+2
Now that the pack-bitmap machinery has learned how to read and interact with an incremental MIDX bitmap, teach the pack-bitmap-write.c machinery (and relevant callers from within the MIDX machinery) to write such bitmaps. The details for doing so are mostly straightforward. The main changes are as follows: - find_object_pos() now makes use of an extra MIDX parameter which is used to locate the bit positions of objects which are from previous layers (and thus do not exist in the current layer's pack_order field). (Note also that the pack_order field is moved into struct write_midx_context to further simplify the callers for write_midx_bitmap()). - bitmap_writer_build_type_index() first determines how many objects precede the current bitmap layer and offsets the bits it sets in each respective type-level bitmap by that amount so they can be OR'd together.

2025-03-13builtin/pack-objects.c: freshen objects from existing cruft packsTaylor Blau1-17/+101
Once an object is written into a cruft pack, we can only freshen it by writing a new loose or packed copy of that object with a more recent mtime. Prior to 61568efa95 (builtin/pack-objects.c: support `--max-pack-size` with `--cruft`, 2023-08-28), we typically had at most one cruft pack in a repository at any given time. So freshening unreachable objects was straightforward when already rewriting the cruft pack (and its *.mtimes file). But 61568efa95 changes things: 'pack-objects' now supports writing multiple cruft packs when invoked with `--cruft` and the `--max-pack-size` flag. Cruft packs are rewritten until they reach some size threshold, at which point they are considered "frozen", and will only be modified in a pruning GC, or if the threshold itself is adjusted. Prior to this patch, however, this process breaks down when we attempt to freshen an object packed in an earlier cruft pack, and that cruft pack is larger than the threshold and thus will survive the repack. When this is the case, it is impossible to freshen objects in cruft pack(s) when those cruft packs are larger than the threshold. This is because we would avoid writing them in the new cruft pack entirely, for a couple of reasons. 1. When enumerating packed objects via 'add_objects_in_unpacked_packs()' we pass the SKIP_IN_CORE_KEPT_PACKS, which is used to avoid looping over the packs we're going to retain (which are marked as kept in-core by 'read_cruft_objects()'). This means that we will avoid enumerating additional packed copies of objects found in any cruft packs which are larger than the given size threshold. Thus there is no opportunity to call 'create_object_entry()' whatsoever. 2. We likewise will discard the loose copy (if one exists) of any unreachable object packed in a cruft pack that is larger than the threshold. Here our call path is 'add_unreachable_loose_objects()', which uses the 'add_loose_object()' callback. That function will eventually land us in 'want_object_in_pack()' (via 'add_cruft_object_entry()'), and we'll discard the object as it appears in one of the packs which we marked as kept in-core. This means in effect that it is impossible to freshen an unreachable object once it appears in a cruft pack larger than the given threshold. Instead, we should pack an additional copy of an unreachable object we want to freshen even if it appears in a cruft pack, provided that the cruft copy has an mtime which is before the mtime of the copy we are trying to pack/freshen. This is sub-optimal in the sense that it requires keeping an additional copy of unreachable objects upon freshening, but we don't have a better alternative without the ability to make in-place modifications to existing *.mtimes files. In order to implement this, we have to adjust the behavior of 'want_found_object()'. When 'pack-objects' is told that we're *not* going to retain any cruft packs (i.e. the set of packs marked as kept in-core does not contain a cruft pack), the behavior is unchanged. But when there *is* at least one cruft pack that we're holding onto, it is no longer sufficient to reject a copy of an object found in that cruft pack for that reason alone. In this case, we only want to reject a candidate object when copies of that object either: - exists in a non-cruft pack that we are retaining, regardless of that pack's mtime, or - exists in a cruft pack with an mtime at least as recent as the copy we are debating whether or not to pack, in which case freshening would be redundant. To do this, keep track of whether or not we have any cruft packs in our in-core kept list with a new 'ignore_packed_keep_in_core_has_cruft' flag. When we end up in this new special case, we replace a call to 'has_object_kept_pack()' to 'want_cruft_object_mtime()', and only reject objects when we have a copy in an existing cruft pack with at least as recent an mtime as our candidate (in which case "freshening" would be redundant).

2025-03-10environment: move access to "core.bigFileThreshold" into repo settingsPatrick Steinhardt1-2/+4
The "core.bigFileThreshold" setting is stored in a global variable and populated via `git_default_core_config()`. This may cause issues in the case where one is handling multiple different repositories in a single process with different values for that config key, as we may or may not see the correct value in that case. Furthermore, global state blocks our path towards libification. Refactor the code so that we instead store the value in `struct repo_settings`, where the value is computed as-needed and cached. Note that this change requires us to adapt one test in t1050 that verifies that we die when parsing an invalid "core.bigFileThreshold" value. The exercised Git command doesn't use the value at all, and thus it won't hit the new code path that parses the value. This is addressed by using git-hash-object(1) instead, which does read the value. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2025-01-27pack-objects: prevent name hash version changeDerrick Stolee1-0/+8
When the --name-hash-version option is used in 'git pack-objects', it can change from the initial assignment to when it is used based on interactions with other arguments. Specifically, when writing or reading bitmaps, we must force version 1 for now. This could change in the future when the bitmap format can store a name hash version value, indicating which was used during the writing of the packfile. Protect the 'git pack-objects' process from getting confused by failing with a BUG() statement if the value of the name hash version changes between calls to pack_name_hash_fn().

2025-01-27pack-objects: add GIT_TEST_NAME_HASH_VERSIONDerrick Stolee1-1/+4
Add a new environment variable to opt-in to different values of the --name-hash-version=<n> option in 'git pack-objects'. This allows for extra testing of the feature without repeating all of the test scenarios. Unlike many GIT_TEST_* variables, we are choosing to not add this to the linux-TEST-vars CI build as that test run is already overloaded. The behavior exposed by this test variable is of low risk and should be sufficient to allow manual testing when an issue arises. But this option isn't free. There are a few tests that change behavior with the variable enabled. First, there are a few tests that are very sensitive to certain delta bases being picked. These are both involving the generation of thin bundles and then counting their objects via 'git index-pack --fix-thin' which pulls the delta base into the new packfile. For these tests, disable the option as a decent long-term option. Second, there are some tests that compare the exact output of a 'git pack-objects' process when using bitmaps. The warning that ignores the --name-hash-version=2 and forces version 1 causes these tests to fail. Disable the environment variable to get around this issue.

2025-01-27pack-objects: add --name-hash-version optionDerrick Stolee1-5/+47
The previous change introduced a new pack_name_hash_v2() function that intends to satisfy much of the hash locality features of the existing pack_name_hash() function while also distinguishing paths with similar final components of their paths. This change adds a new --name-hash-version option for 'git pack-objects' to allow users to select their preferred function version. This use of an integer version allows for future expansion and a direct way to later store a name hash version in the .bitmap format. For now, let's consider how effective this mechanism is when repacking a repository with different name hash versions. Specifically, we will execute 'git pack-objects' the same way a 'git repack -adf' process would, except we include --name-hash-version=<n> for testing. On the Git repository, we do not expect much difference. All path names are short. This is backed by our results: | Stage | Pack Size | Repack Time | |-----------------------|-----------|-------------| | After clone | 260 MB | N/A | | --name-hash-version=1 | 127 MB | 129s | | --name-hash-version=2 | 127 MB | 112s | This example demonstrates how there is some natural overhead coming from the cloned copy because the server is hosting many forks and has not optimized for exactly this set of reachable objects. But the full repack has similar characteristics for both versions. Let's consider some repositories that are hitting too many collisions with version 1. First, let's explore the kinds of paths that are commonly causing these collisions: * "/CHANGELOG.json" is 15 characters, and is created by the beachball [1] tool. Only the final character of the parent directory can differentiate different versions of this file, but also only the two most-significant digits. If that character is a letter, then this is always a collision. Similar issues occur with the similar "/CHANGELOG.md" path, though there is more opportunity for differences In the parent directory. * Localization files frequently have common filenames but differentiates via parent directories. In C#, the name "/strings.resx.lcl" is used for these localization files and they will all collide in name-hash. [1] https://github.com/microsoft/beachball I've come across many other examples where some internal tool uses a common name across multiple directories and is causing Git to repack poorly due to name-hash collisions. One open-source example is the fluentui [2] repo, which uses beachball to generate CHANGELOG.json and CHANGELOG.md files, and these files have very poor delta characteristics when comparing against versions across parent directories. | Stage | Pack Size | Repack Time | |-----------------------|-----------|-------------| | After clone | 694 MB | N/A | | --name-hash-version=1 | 438 MB | 728s | | --name-hash-version=2 | 168 MB | 142s | [2] https://github.com/microsoft/fluentui In this example, we see significant gains in the compressed packfile size as well as the time taken to compute the packfile. Using a collection of repositories that use the beachball tool, I was able to make similar comparisions with dramatic results. While the fluentui repo is public, the others are private so cannot be shared for reproduction. The results are so significant that I find it important to share here: | Repo | --name-hash-version=1 | --name-hash-version=2 | |----------|-----------------------|-----------------------| | fluentui | 440 MB | 161 MB | | Repo B | 6,248 MB | 856 MB | | Repo C | 37,278 MB | 6,755 MB | | Repo D | 131,204 MB | 7,463 MB | Future changes could include making --name-hash-version implied by a config value or even implied by default during a full repack. It is important to point out that the name hash value is stored in the .bitmap file format, so we must force --name-hash-version=1 when bitmaps are being read or written. Later, the bitmap format could be updated to be aware of the name hash version so deltas can be quickly computed across the bitmapped/not-bitmapped boundary. To promote the safety of this parameter, the validate_name_hash_version() method will die() if the given name-hash version is incorrect and will disable newer versions if not yet compatible with other features, such as --write-bitmap-index.

2025-01-21pack-write: pass hash_algo to `write_idx_file()`Karthik Nayak1-3/+4

It works by taking the longest continuous run of objects from the beginning of each source pack that the caller wants, and reuses the entirety of that section from each pack. This is based on the assumption that we don't have any gaps within the region. This assumption relieves us from having to patch any OFS_DELTAs, since we know that there aren't any gaps between any delta and its base in that region. To illustrate why this assumption is necessary, suppose we have some pack P, which has objects X, Y, and Z. If the MIDX's copy of Y was selected from a pack other than P, then the bit corresponding to object Y will appear earlier in the bitmap than the bits corresponding to X and Z. If pack-objects already has or will use the copy of Y from the pack it was selected from in the MIDX, then it is an error to reuse all objects between X and Z in the source pack. Doing so will cause us to reuse Y from a different pack than the one which represents Y in the MIDX, causing us to either: - include the object twice, assuming that the caller wants Y in the pack, or - include the object once, resulting in us packing more objects than necessary. This regression comes from ca0fd69e37 (pack-objects: prepare `write_reused_pack_verbatim()` for multi-pack reuse, 2023-12-14), which incorrectly assumed that there would be no gaps in reusable regions of non-preferred packs. Instead, we can only safely perform the whole-word reuse optimization on the preferred pack, where we know with certainty that no gaps exist in that region of the bitmap. We can still reuse objects from non-preferred packs, but we have to inspect them individually in write_reused_pack() to ensure that any gaps that may exist are accounted for. This allows us to simplify the implementation of write_reused_pack_verbatim() back to almost its pre-multi-pack reuse form, since we can now assume that the beginning of the pack appears at the beginning of the bitmap, meaning that we don't have to account for any bits up to the first word boundary (like we had to special case in ca0fd69e37). The only significant changes from the pre-ca0fd69e37 implementation are: - that we can no longer inspect words up to the end of reuse_packfile_bitmap->word_alloc, since we only want to look at words whose bits all correspond to objects in the given packfile, and - that we return early when given a reuse_packfile which is not preferred, making the call a noop. In the future, it might be possible to restore this optimization if we could guarantee that some reuse packs don't contain any gaps by construction (similar to the "disjoint packs" idea in very early versions of multi-pack reuse).

2024-11-12index-pack: repack local links into promisor packsJonathan Tan1-0/+28
Teach index-pack to, when processing the objects in a pack with --promisor specified on the CLI, repack local objects (and the local objects that they refer to, recursively) referenced by these objects into promisor packs. This prevents the situation in which, when fetching from a promisor remote, we end up with promisor objects (newly fetched) referring to non-promisor objects (locally created prior to the fetch). This situation may arise if the client had previously pushed objects to the remote, for example. One issue that arises in this situation is that, if the non-promisor objects become inaccessible except through promisor objects (for example, if the branch pointing to them has moved to point to the promisor object that refers to them), then GC will garbage collect them. There are other ways to solve this, but the simplest seems to be to enforce the invariant that we don't have promisor objects referring to non-promisor objects. This repacking is done from index-pack to minimize the performance impact. During a fetch, the only time most objects are fully inflated in memory is when their object ID is computed, so we also scan the objects (to see which objects they refer to) during this time. Also to minimize the performance impact, an object is calculated to be local if it's a loose object or present in a non-promisor pack. (If it's also in a promisor pack or referred to by an object in a promisor pack, it is technically already a promisor object. But a misidentification of a promisor object as a non-promisor object is relatively benign here - we will thus repack that promisor object into a promisor pack, duplicating it in the object store, but there is no correctness issue, just an issue of inefficiency.)

2024-10-25packfile: use object_id in find_pack_entry_one()Jeff King1-2/+2
The main function we use to search a pack index for an object is find_pack_entry_one(). That function still takes a bare pointer to the hash, despite the fact that its underlying bsearch_pack() function needs an object_id struct. And so we end up making an extra copy of the hash into the struct just to do a lookup. As it turns out, all callers but one already have such an object_id. So we can just take a pointer to that struct and use it directly. This avoids the extra copy and provides a more type-safe interface. The one exception is get_delta_base() in packfile.c, when we are chasing a REF_DELTA from inside the pack (and thus we have a pointer directly to the mmap'd pack memory, not a struct). We can just bump the hashcpy() from inside find_pack_entry_one() to this one caller that needs it. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Taylor Blau <me@ttaylorr.com>

2024-08-27builtin/pack-objects.c: translate bit positions during pack-reuseTaylor Blau1-8/+36
When reusing chunks verbatim from an existing source pack, the function write_reused_pack() first attempts to reuse whole words (via the function `write_reused_pack_verbatim()`), and then individual bits (via `write_reused_pack_one()`). In the non-MIDX case, all of this code works fine. Likewise, in the MIDX case, processing bits individually from the first (preferred) pack works fine. However, processing subsequent packs in the MIDX case is broken when there are duplicate objects among the set of MIDX'd packs. This is because we treat the individual bit positions as valid pack positions within the source pack(s), which does not account for gaps in the source pack, like we see when the MIDX must break ties between duplicate objects which appear in multiple packs. The broken code looks like: for (; i < reuse_packfile_bitmap->word_alloc; i++) { for (offset = 0; offset < BITS_IN_EWORD, offset++) { /* ... */ write_reused_pack_one(reuse_packfile->p, pos + offset - reuse_packfile->bitmap_pos, f, pack_start, &w_curs); } } , where the second argument is incorrect and does not account for gaps. Instead, make sure that we translate bit positions in the MIDX's pseudo-pack order to pack positions in the respective source packs by: - Translating the bit position (pseudo-pack order) to a MIDX position (lexical order). - Use the MIDX position to obtain the offset at which the given object occurs in the source pack. - Then translate that offset back into a pack relative position within the source pack by calling offset_to_pack_pos(). After doing this, then we can safely use the result as a pack position. Note that when doing single-pack reuse, as well as reusing objects from the MIDX's preferred pack, such translation is not necessary, since either ties are broken in favor of the preferred pack, or there are no ties to break at all (in the case of non-MIDX bitmaps). Failing to do this can result in strange failure modes. One example that can occur when misinterpreting bits in the above fashion is that Git thinks it's supposed to send a delta that the caller does not want. Under this (incorrect) assumption, we try to look up the delta's base (so that we can patch any OFS_DELTAs if necessary). We do this using find_reused_offset(). But if we try and call that function for an offset belonging to an object we did not send, we'll get back garbage. This can result in us computing a negative fixup value, which results in memory corruption when trying to write the (patched) OFS_DELTA header.

2024-08-15pack-bitmap: initialize `bitmap_writer_init()` with packing_dataTaylor Blau1-1/+1
In order to determine its object order, the pack-bitmap machinery keeps a 'struct packing_data' corresponding to the pack or pseudo-pack (when writing a MIDX bitmap) being written. The to_pack field is provided to the bitmap machinery by callers of bitmap_writer_build() and assigned to the bitmap_writer struct at that point. But a subsequent commit will want to have access to that data earlier on during commit selection. Prepare for that by adding a 'to_pack' argument to 'bitmap_writer_init()', and initializing the field during that function. Subsequent commits will clean up other functions which take now-redundant arguments (like nr_objects, which is equivalent to pdata->objects_nr, or pdata itself).
