Two slightly different ways to get at "all the packfiles" in API
has been cleaned up.
* ps/remove-packfile-store-get-packs:
packfile: rename `packfile_store_get_all_packs()`
packfile: introduce macro to iterate through packs
packfile: drop `packfile_store_get_packs()`
builtin/grep: simplify how we preload packs
builtin/gc: convert to use `packfile_store_get_all_packs()`
object-name: convert to use `packfile_store_get_all_packs()`
|

In a preceding commit we have removed `packfile_store_get_packs()`. With
this function removed it's somewhat useless to still have the "all"
infix in `packfile_store_get_all_packs()`. Rename the latter to drop
that infix.

We have a bunch of different sites that want to iterate through all
packs of a given `struct packfile_store`. This pattern is somewhat
verbose and repetitive, which makes it somewhat cumbersome.
Introduce a new macro `repo_for_each_pack()` that removes some of the
boilerplate.

The previous commit converted callers of setup_revisions() with a strvec
to use the safer and easier _from_strvec() variant.
Let's now convert spots that don't directly have a strvec, but receive
an argc/argv pair that eventually comes from one. We'll instead pass the
strvec down to the point where we call setup_revisions().
That makes these functions slightly less flexible if they were to grow
other callers that don't use strvecs, but this rigidity is buying us
some safety. It is only safe to pass the free_removed_argv_elements
option to setup_revisions() if we know the elements of argv/argc are
allocated on the heap. That isn't communicated in the type system when
we are passed the bare elements. But if we get a strvec, we know that
the elements are allocated strings.
And at any rate, each of these modified functions has only a single
caller (that has a strvec), so the loss of flexibility is unlikely to
ever matter.

In the Git 2.51 release cycle we've refactored the object database layer
to access objects via `struct object_database` directly. To make the

drop these old wrappers. Do so and adapt the small number of newly added

There are a couple of functions that take both a `struct repository` and
a `struct multi_pack_index`. This provides redundant information though
without much benefit given that the multi-pack index already has a
pointer to its owning repository.
Drop the `struct repository` parameter from such functions. While at it,
reorder the list of parameters of `fill_midx_entry()` so that the MIDX
comes first to better align with our coding guidelines.

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()`. All callsites
are adjusted so that they use `repo_config(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.

The function `force_object_loose()` forces an object to become a loose
object in case it only exists in its packed form. To do so it implicitly
relies on `the_repository`.
Refactor the function by passing a `struct odb_source` as parameter.
While the check whether any such loose object exists already acts on the
whole object database, writing the loose object happens in one specific
source.

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.

We implicitly depend on `the_repository` when moving an object file into
place in `finalize_object_file()`. Get rid of this global dependency by
passing in a repository.
Note that one might be pressed to inject an object database instead of a
repository. But the function doesn't really care about the ODB at all.
All it does is to move a file into place while checking whether there is
any collision. As such, the functionality it provides is independent of
the object database and only needs the repository as parameter so that
it can adjust permissions of the file we are about to finalize.

We implicitly depend on `the_repository` in `has_loose_object()`.
Refactor the function to accept an `odb_source` as input that should be
checked for such a loose object.
This refactoring changes semantics of the function to not check the
whole object database for such a loose object anymore, but instead we
now only check that single source. Existing callers thus need to loop
through all sources manually now.
While this change may seem illogical at first, whether or not an object
exists in a specific format should be answered by the source using that
format. As such, we can eventually convert this into a generic function
`odb_source_has_object()` that simply checks whether a given object
exists in an object source. And as we will know about the format that
any given source uses it allows us to derive whether the object exists
in a given format.
This change also makes `has_loose_object_nonlocal()` obsolete. The only
caller of this function is adapted so that it skips the primary object
source.

The function `get_multi_pack_index()` loads multi-pack indices via
`prepare_packed_git()` and then returns the linked list of multi-pack
indices that is stored in `struct object_database`. That list is in the
process of being removed though in favor of storing the MIDX as part of
the object database source it belongs to.
Refactor `get_multi_pack_index()` so that it returns the multi-pack
index for a single object source. Callers are now expected to call this
function for each source they are interested in. This requires them to
iterate through alternates, so we have to prepare alternate object
sources before doing so.

When invoked with '--stdin-packs', pack-objects will generate a pack
which contains the objects found in the "included" packs, less any
objects from "excluded" packs.
Packs that exist in the repository but weren't specified as either
included or excluded are in practice treated like the latter, at least
in the sense that pack-objects won't include objects from those packs.
This behavior forces us to include any cruft pack(s) in a repository's
multi-pack index for the reasons described in ddee3703b3
(builtin/repack.c: add cruft packs to MIDX during geometric repack,
2022-05-20).
The full details are in ddee3703b3, but the gist is if you
have a once-unreachable object in a cruft pack which later becomes
reachable via one or more commits in a pack generated with
'--stdin-packs', you *have* to include that object in the MIDX via the
copy in the cruft pack, otherwise we cannot generate reachability
bitmaps for any commits which reach that object.
Note that the traversal here is best-effort, similar to the existing
traversal which provides name-hash hints. This means that the object
traversal may hand us back a blob that does not actually exist. We
*won't* see missing trees/commits with 'ignore_missing_links' because:
- missing commit parents are discarded at the commit traversal stage by
revision.c::process_parents()
- missing tag objects are discarded by revision.c::handle_commit()
- missing tree objects are discarded by the list-objects code in
list-objects.c::process_tree()
But we have to handle potentially-missing blobs specially by making a
separate check to ensure they exist in the repository. Failing to do so
would mean that we'd add an object to the packing list which doesn't
actually exist, rendering us unable to write out the pack.
This prepares us for new repacking behavior which will "resurrect"
objects found in cruft or otherwise unspecified packs when generating
new packs. In the context of geometric repacking, this may be used to
maintain a sequence of geometrically-repacked packs, the union of which
is closed under reachability, even in the case described earlier.

With '--unpacked', pack-objects adds loose objects (which don't appear
in any of the excluded packs from '--stdin-packs') to the output pack
without considering them as reachability tips for the name-hash
traversal.
This was an oversight in the original implementation of '--stdin-packs',
since the code which enumerates and adds loose objects to the output
pack (`add_unreachable_loose_objects()`) did not have access to the
'rev_info' struct found in `read_packs_list_from_stdin()`.
Excluding unpacked objects from that traversal doesn't affect the
correctness of the resulting pack, but it does make it harder to
discover good deltas for loose objects.
Now that the 'rev_info' struct is declared outside of
`read_packs_list_from_stdin()`, we can pass it to
`add_objects_in_unpacked_packs()` and add any loose objects as tips to
the above-mentioned traversal, in theory producing slightly tighter
packs as a result.

Once 'read_packs_list_from_stdin()' has called for_each_object_in_pack()
on each of the input packs, we do a reachability traversal to discover
names for any objects we picked up so we can generate name hash values
and hopefully get higher quality deltas as a result.
A future commit will change the purpose of this reachability traversal
to find and pack objects which are reachable from commits in the input
packs, but are packed in an unknown (not included nor excluded) pack.
Extract the code which initializes and performs the reachability
traversal to take place in the caller, not the callee, which prepares us
to share this code for the '--unpacked' case (see the function
add_unreachable_loose_objects() for more details).

At the bottom of cmd_pack_objects() we check which mode the command is
running in (e.g., generating a cruft pack, handling '--stdin-packs',
using the internal rev-list, etc.) and handle the mode appropriately.
The '--stdin-packs' case is handled inline (dating back to its
introduction in 339bce27f4 (builtin/pack-objects.c: add '--stdin-packs'
option, 2021-02-22)) since it is relatively short. Extract the body of
"if (stdin_packs)" into its own function to prepare for the

pack-objects has a handful of explicit checks for pairs of command-line
options which are mutually incompatible. Many of these pre-date
a699367bb8 (i18n: factorize more 'incompatible options' messages,
2022-01-31).
Convert the explicit checks into die_for_incompatible_opt2() calls,
which simplifies the implementation and standardizes pack-objects'
output when given incompatible options (e.g., --stdin-packs with
--filter gives different output than --keep-unreachable with
--unpack-unreachable).
There is one minor piece of test fallout in t5331 that expects the old
format, which has been corrected.

There does not appear to be anything particularly incompatible about the
--shallow and --path-walk options of 'git pack-objects'. If shallow
commits are to be handled differently, then it is by the revision walk
that defines the commit set and which are interesting or uninteresting.
However, before the previous change, a trivial removal of the warning
would cause a failure in t5500-fetch-pack.sh when
GIT_TEST_PACK_PATH_WALK is enabled. The shallow fetch would provide more
objects than we desired, due to some incorrect behavior of the path-walk
API, especially around walking uninteresting objects.
The recently-added tests in t5538-push-shallow.sh help to confirm this
behavior is working with the --path-walk option if
GIT_TEST_PACK_PATH_WALK is enabled. These tests passed previously due to
the --path-walk feature being disabled in the presence of a shallow
clone.

Adapting the implementation of ll_find_deltas(), create a threaded
version of the --path-walk compression step in 'git pack-objects'.
This involves adding a 'regions' member to the thread_params struct,
allowing each thread to own a section of paths. We can simplify the way
jobs are split because there is no value in extending the batch based on
name-hash the way sections of the object entry array are attempted to be
grouped. We re-use the 'list_size' and 'remaining' items for the purpose
of borrowing work in progress from other "victim" threads when a thread
has finished its batch of work more quickly.
Using the Git repository as a test repo, the p5313 performance test
shows that the resulting size of the repo is the same, but the threaded
implementation gives gains of varying degrees depending on the number of
objects being packed. (This was tested on a 16-core machine.)
Test HEAD~1 HEAD
---------------------------------------------------
5313.20: big pack 2.38 1.99 -16.4%
5313.21: big pack size 16.1M 16.0M -0.2%
5313.24: repack 107.32 45.41 -57.7%
5313.25: repack size 213.3M 213.2M -0.0%
(Test output is formatted to better fit in message.)
This ~60% reduction in 'git repack --path-walk' time is typical across
all repos I used for testing. What is interesting is to compare when the
overall time improves enough to outperform the --name-hash-version=1
case. These time improvements correlate with repositories with data
shapes that significantly improve their data size as well. The
--path-walk feature frequently takes longer than --name-hash-version=2,
trading some extra computation for some additional compression. The
natural place where this additional computation comes from is the two
compression passes that --path-walk takes, though the first pass is
naturally faster due to the path boundaries avoiding a number of delta
compression attempts.
For example, the microsoft/fluentui repo has significant size reduction
from --name-hash-version=1 to --name-hash-version=2 followed by further
improvements with --path-walk. The threaded computation makes
--path-walk more competitive in time compared to --name-hash-version=2,
though still ~31% more expensive in that metric.
Repack Method Pack Size Time
------------------------------------------
Hash v1 439.4M 87.24s
Hash v2 161.7M 21.51s
Path Walk (Before) 142.5M 81.29s
Path Walk (After) 142.5M 28.16s
Similar results hold for the Git repository:
Repack Method Pack Size Time
------------------------------------------
Hash v1 248.8M 30.44s
Hash v2 249.0M 30.15s
Path Walk (Before) 213.2M 142.50s
Path Walk (After) 213.3M 45.41s
...as well as the nodejs/node repository:
Repack Method Pack Size Time
------------------------------------------
Hash v1 739.9M 71.18s
Hash v2 764.6M 67.82s
Path Walk (Before) 698.1M 208.10s
Path Walk (After) 698.0M 75.10s
Finally, the Linux kernel repository is a good test for this repacking
time change, even though the space savings is more subtle:
Repack Method Pack Size Time
------------------------------------------
Hash v1 2.5G 554.41s
Hash v2 2.5G 549.62s
Path Walk (before) 2.2G 1562.36s
Path Walk (before) 2.2G 559.00s

Previously, the --path-walk option to 'git pack-objects' would compute
deltas inline with the path-walk logic. This would make the progress
indicator look like it is taking a long time to enumerate objects, and
then very quickly computed deltas.
Instead of computing deltas on each region of objects organized by tree,
store a list of regions corresponding to these groups. These can later
be pulled from the list for delta compression before doing the "global"
delta search.
This presents a new progress indicator that can be used in tests to
verify that this stage is happening.
The current implementation is not integrated with threads, but we are
setting it up to arrive in the next change.
Since we do not attempt to sort objects by size until after exploring
all trees, we can remove the previous change to t5530 due to a different
error message appearing first.

Users may want to enable the --path-walk option for 'git pack-objects' by
default, especially underneath commands like 'git push' or 'git repack'.
This should be limited to client repositories, since the --path-walk option
disables bitmap walks, so would be bad to include in Git servers when
serving fetches and clones. There is potential that it may be helpful to
consider when repacking the repository, to take advantage of improved deltas
across historical versions of the same files.
Much like how "pack.useSparse" was introduced and included in
"feature.experimental" before being enabled by default, use the repository
settings infrastructure to make the new "pack.usePathWalk" config enabled by
"feature.experimental" and "feature.manyFiles".
In order to test that this config works, add a new trace2 region around
the path walk code that can be checked by a 'git push' command.

There are many tests that validate whether 'git pack-objects' works as
expected. Instead of duplicating these tests, add a new test environment
variable, GIT_TEST_PACK_PATH_WALK, that implies --path-walk by default
when specified.
This was useful in testing the implementation of the --path-walk
implementation, helping to find tests that are overly specific to the
default object walk. These include:
- t0411-clone-from-partial.sh : One test fetches from a repo that does
not have the boundary objects. This causes the path-based walk to
fail. Disable the variable for this test.
- t5306-pack-nobase.sh : Similar to t0411, one test fetches from a repo
without a boundary object.
- t5310-pack-bitmaps.sh : One test compares the case when packing with
bitmaps to the case when packing without them. Since we disable the
test variable when writing bitmaps, this causes a difference in the
object list (the --path-walk option adds an extra object). Specify
--no-path-walk in both processes for the comparison. Another test
checks for a specific delta base, but when computing dynamically
without using bitmaps, the base object it too small to be considered
in the delta calculations so no base is used.
- t5316-pack-delta-depth.sh : This script cares about certain delta
choices and their chain lengths. The --path-walk option changes how
these chains are selected, and thus changes the results of this test.
- t5322-pack-objects-sparse.sh : This demonstrates the effectiveness of
the --sparse option and how it combines with --path-walk.
- t5332-multi-pack-reuse.sh : This test verifies that the preferred
pack is used for delta reuse when possible. The --path-walk option is
not currently aware of the preferred pack at all, so finds a
different delta base.
- t7406-submodule-update.sh : When using the variable, the --depth
option collides with the --path-walk feature, resulting in a warning
message. Disable the variable so this warning does not appear.
I want to call out one specific test change that is only temporary:
- t5530-upload-pack-error.sh : One test cares specifically about an
"unable to read" error message. Since the current implementation
performs delta calculations within the path-walk API callback, a
different "unable to get size" error message appears. When this
is changed in a future refactoring, this test change can be reverted.
Similar to GIT_TEST_NAME_HASH_VERSION, we do not add this option to the
linux-TEST-vars CI build as that's already an overloaded build.

In order to more easily compute delta bases among objects that appear at
the exact same path, add a --path-walk option to 'git pack-objects'.
This option will use the path-walk API instead of the object walk given
by the revision machinery. Since objects will be provided in batches
representing a common path, those objects can be tested for delta bases
immediately instead of waiting for a sort of the full object list by
name-hash. This has multiple benefits, including avoiding collisions by
name-hash.
The objects marked as UNINTERESTING are included in these batches, so we
are guaranteeing some locality to find good delta bases.
After the individual passes are done on a per-path basis, the default
name-hash is used to find other opportunistic delta bases that did not
match exactly by the full path name.
The current implementation performs delta calculations while walking
objects, which is not ideal for a few reasons. First, this will cause
the "Enumerating objects" phase to be much longer than usual. Second, it
does not take advantage of threading during the path-scoped delta
calculations. Even with this lack of threading, the path-walk option is
sometimes faster than the usual approach. Future changes will refactor
this code to allow for threading, but that complexity is deferred until
later to keep this patch as simple as possible.
This new walk is incompatible with some features and is ignored by
others:
* Object filters are not currently integrated with the path-walk API,
such as sparse-checkout or tree depth. A blobless packfile could be
integrated easily, but that is deferred for later.
* Server-focused features such as delta islands, shallow packs, and
using a bitmap index are incompatible with the path-walk API.
* The path walk API is only compatible with the --revs option, not
taking object lists or pack lists over stdin. These alternative ways
to specify the objects currently ignores the --path-walk option
without even a warning.
Future changes will create performance tests that demonstrate the power
of this approach.
