Switch from merge-recursive to merge-ort. Adjust the following
testcases due to the switch:
* t4151: This test left an untracked file in the way of the merge.
merge-recursive could only sometimes tell when untracked files were
in the way, and by the time it discovers others, it has already made
too many changes to back out of the merge. So, instead of writing the
results to e.g. 'file1' it would instead write them to
'file1~branch1'. This is confusing for users, because they might not
notice 'file1~branch1' and accidentally add and commit 'file1'.
In contrast, merge-ort correctly notices the file in the way before
making any changes and aborts. Since this test didn't care about the
file in the way, just remove it before calling git-am.
* t4255: Usage of merge-ort allows us to change two known failures into
successes.
* t6427: As noted a few commits ago, the choice of conflict label for
diff3 markers for the ancestor commit was previously handled by
merge-recursive.c rather than by callers. Since that has now changed,
`git am` needs to specify that label. Although the previous conflict
label ("constructed merge base") was already fairly somewhat slanted
towards `git am`, let's use wording more along the lines of the
related command-line flag from `git apply` and function involved to
tie it more closely to `git am`.

* tb/multi-cruft-pack-refresh-fix:
builtin/pack-objects.c: freshen objects from existing cruft packs
|
|
While 'git-reflog(1)' currently allows users to expire reflogs and
delete individual entries, it lacks functionality to completely remove
reflogs for specific references. This becomes problematic in
repositories where reflogs are not needed but continue to accumulate
entries despite setting 'core.logAllRefUpdates=false'.
Add a new 'drop' subcommand to git-reflog that allows users to delete
the entire reflog for a specified reference. Include an '--all' flag to
enable dropping all reflogs from all worktrees and an addon flag
'--single-worktree', to only drop all reflogs from the current worktree.
While here, remove an extraneous newline in the file.

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).

The ref and reflog iterators have their lifecycle attached to iteration:
once the iterator reaches its end, it is automatically released and the
caller doesn't have to care about that anymore. When the iterator should
be released before it has been exhausted, callers must explicitly abort
the iterator via `ref_iterator_abort()`.
This lifecycle is somewhat unusual in the Git codebase and creates two
problems:
- Callsites need to be very careful about when exactly they call
`ref_iterator_abort()`, as calling the function is only valid when
the iterator itself still is. This leads to somewhat awkward calling
patterns in some situations.
- It is impossible to reuse iterators and re-seek them to a different
prefix. This feature isn't supported by any iterator implementation
except for the reftable iterators anyway, but if it was implemented
it would allow us to optimize cases where we need to search for
specific references repeatedly by reusing internal state.
Detangle the lifecycle from iteration so that we don't deallocate the
iterator anymore once it is exhausted. Instead, callers are now expected
to always call a newly introduce `ref_iterator_free()` function that
deallocates the iterator and its internal state.
Note that the `dir_iterator` is somewhat special because it does not
implement the `ref_iterator` interface, but is only used to implement
other iterators. Consequently, we have to provide `dir_iterator_free()`
instead of `dir_iterator_release()` as the allocated structure itself is
managed by the `dir_iterator` interfaces, as well, and not freed by
`ref_iterator_free()` like in all the other cases.
While at it, drop the return value of `ref_iterator_abort()`, which
wasn't really required by any of the iterator implementations anyway.
Furthermore, stop calling `base_ref_iterator_free()` in any of the
backends, but instead call it in `ref_iterator_free()`.

Most of the commands in git-update-ref(1) accept an old and/or new
object ID to update a specific reference to. These object IDs get parsed
via `repo_get_oid()`, which not only handles plain object IDs, but also
those that have a suffix like "~" or "^2". More surprisingly though, it
even knows to resolve arbitrary revisions, despite the fact that its
manpage does not mention this fact even once.
One consequence of this is that we also check for ambiguous references:
when parsing a full object ID where the DWIM mechanism would also cause
us to resolve it as a branch, we'd end up printing a warning. While this
check makes sense to have in general, it is arguably less useful in the
context of git-update-ref(1). This is due to multiple reasons:
- The manpage is explicitly structured around object IDs. So if we see
a fully blown object ID, the intent should be quite clear in
general.
- The command is part of our plumbing layer and not a tool that users
would generally use in interactive workflows. As such, the warning
will likely not be visible to anybody in the first place.
- Users can and should use the fully-qualified refname in case there
is any potential for ambiguity. And given that this command is part
of our plumbing layer, one should always try to be as defensive as
possible and use fully-qualified refnames.
Furthermore, this check can be quite expensive when updating lots of
references via `--stdin`, because we try to read multiple references per
object ID that we parse according to the DWIM rules. This effect can be
seen both with the "files" and "reftable" backend.
The issue is not unique to git-update-ref(1), but was also an issue in
git-cat-file(1), where it was addressed by disabling the ambiguity check
in 25fba78d36b (cat-file: disable object/refname ambiguity check for
batch mode, 2013-07-12).
Disable the warning in git-update-ref(1), which provides a significant
speedup with both backends. The user-visible outcome is unchanged even
when ambiguity exists, except that we don't show the warning anymore.
The following benchmark creates 10000 new references with a 100000
preexisting refs with the "files" backend:
Benchmark 1: update-ref: create many refs (refformat = files, preexisting = 100000, new = 10000, revision = HEAD~)
Time (mean ± σ): 467.3 ms ± 5.1 ms [User: 100.0 ms, System: 365.1 ms]

Benchmark 2: update-ref: create many refs (refformat = files, preexisting = 100000, new = 10000, revision = HEAD)
Time (mean ± σ): 394.1 ms ± 5.8 ms [User: 63.3 ms, System: 327.6 ms]
Range (min … max): 384.9 ms … 405.7 ms 10 runs
Summary
update-ref: create many refs (refformat = files, preexisting = 100000, new = 10000, revision = HEAD) ran
1.19 ± 0.02 times faster than update-ref: create many refs (refformat = files, preexisting = 100000, new = 10000, revision = HEAD~)
And with the "reftable" backend:
Benchmark 1: update-ref: create many refs (refformat = reftable, preexisting = 100000, new = 10000, revision = HEAD~)
Time (mean ± σ): 146.9 ms ± 2.2 ms [User: 90.4 ms, System: 56.0 ms]

Benchmark 2: update-ref: create many refs (refformat = reftable, preexisting = 100000, new = 10000, revision = HEAD)
Time (mean ± σ): 63.2 ms ± 1.1 ms [User: 41.0 ms, System: 21.8 ms]
Range (min … max): 61.1 ms … 66.6 ms 41 runs
Summary
update-ref: create many refs (refformat = reftable, preexisting = 100000, new = 10000, revision = HEAD) ran
2.32 ± 0.05 times faster than update-ref: create many refs (refformat = reftable, preexisting = 100000, new = 10000, revision = HEAD~)
Note that the absolute improvement with both backends is roughly in the
same ballpark, but the relative improvement for the "reftable" backend
is more significant because writing the new table to disk is faster in
the first place.

fast-export has a --signed-tags= option that controls how to handle tag
signatures. However, there is no equivalent for commit signatures; it
just silently strips the signature out of the commit (analogously to
--signed-tags=strip).
While signatures are generally problematic for fast-export/fast-import
(because hashes are likely to change), if they're going to support tag
signatures, there's no reason to not also support commit signatures.
So, implement a --signed-commits= option that mirrors the --signed-tags=
option.
On the fast-export side, try to be as much like signed-tags as possible,
in both implementation and in user-interface. This will change the
default behavior to '--signed-commits=abort' from what is now
'--signed-commits=strip'. In order to provide an escape hatch for users
of third-party tools that call fast-export and do not yet know of the
--signed-commits= option, add an environment variable
'FAST_EXPORT_SIGNED_COMMITS_NOABORT=1' that changes the default to
'--signed-commits=warn-strip'.

fast-export's helper function find_encoding() takes a `const char *`, but
modifies that memory despite the `const`. Ultimately, this memory came
from get_commit_buffer(), and you're not supposed to modify the memory
that you get from get_commit_buffer().
So, get rid of find_encoding() in favor of commit.h:find_commit_header(),
which gives back a string length, rather than mutating the memory to
insert a '\0' terminator.
Because find_commit_header() detects the "\n\n" string that separates the
headers and the commit message, move the call to be above the
`message = strstr(..., "\n\n")` call. This helps readability, and allows
for the value of `encoding` to be used for a better value of "..." so that
the same memory doesn't need to be checked twice. Introduce a
`commit_buffer_cursor` variable to avoid writing an awkward
`encoding ? encoding + encoding_len : committer_end` expression.

The --signed-tags= option takes one of five arguments specifying how to
handle signed tags during export. Among these arguments, 'strip' is to
'warn-strip' as 'verbatim' is to 'warn' (the unmentioned argument is
'abort', which stops the fast-export process entirely). That is,
signatures are either stripped or copied verbatim while exporting, with
or without a warning.
Match the pattern and rename 'warn' to 'warn-verbatim' to make it clear
that it instructs fast-export to copy signatures verbatim.
To maintain backwards compatibility, 'warn' is still recognized as
deprecated synonym of 'warn-verbatim'.

The `null_oid()` function returns the object ID that only consists of
zeroes. Naturally, this ID also depends on the hash algorithm used, as
the number of zeroes is different between SHA1 and SHA256. Consequently,
the function returns the hash-algorithm-specific null object ID.
This is currently done by depending on `the_hash_algo`, which implicitly
makes us depend on `the_repository`. Refactor the function to instead
pass in the hash algorithm for which we want to retrieve the null object
ID. Adapt callsites accordingly by passing in `the_repository`, thus
bubbling up the dependency on that global variable by one layer.
There are a couple of trivial exceptions for subsystems that already got
rid of `the_repository`. These subsystems instead use the repository
that is available via the calling context:
- "builtin/grep.c"
- "grep.c"
- "refs/debug.c"
There are also two non-trivial exceptions:
- "diff-no-index.c": Here we know that we may not have a repository
initialized at all, so we cannot rely on `the_repository`. Instead,
we adapt `diff_no_index()` to get a `struct git_hash_algo` as
parameter. The only caller is located in "builtin/diff.c", where we
know to call `repo_set_hash_algo()` in case we're running outside of
a Git repository. Consequently, it is fine to continue passing
`the_repository->hash_algo` even in this case.
- "builtin/ls-files.c": There is an in-flight patch series that drops
`USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE` in this file, which causes a semantic
conflict because we use `null_oid()` in `show_submodule()`. The
value is passed to `repo_submodule_init()`, which may use the object
ID to resolve a tree-ish in the superproject from which we want to
read the submodule config. As such, the object ID should refer to an
object in the superproject, and consequently we need to use its hash
algorithm.
This means that we could in theory just not bother about this edge
case at all and just use `the_repository` in "diff-no-index.c". But
doing so would feel misdesigned.
Remove the `USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE` preprocessor define in

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

In git-fetch we have an optimization to avoid issuing an ls-refs command
to the server if we don't care about the value of any refs (e.g.,
because we are fetching exact object ids), saving a round-trip to the
server. This comes from e70a3030e7 (fetch: do not list refs if fetching
only hashes, 2018-09-27).
It uses an explicit flag "must_list_refs" to decide when we need to do
so. That was needed back then, because the list of ref-prefixes was not
always complete. If it was empty, it did not necessarily mean that we
were not interested in any refs). But that is no longer the case; an
empty list of prefixes means that we truly do not care about any refs.
And so rather than an explicit flag, we can just check whether we are
interested in any ref prefixes. This simplifies the code slightly, as
there is now a single source of truth for the decision.
It also fixes a bug in / optimizes a very unlikely case, which is:
git fetch $remote ^foo $oid
I.e., a negative refspec combined with an exact oid fetch. This is
somewhat nonsense, in that there are no positive refspecs mentioning
refs to countermand with the negative one. But we should be able to do
this without issuing an ls-refs command (excluding "foo" from the empty
set will obviously still be the empty set).
However, the current code does not do so. The negative refspec is not
counted as a noop in un-setting the must_list_refs flag (hardly the
fault of e70a3030e7, as negative refspecs did not appear until much
later). But by using the prefix list as a source of truth, this
naturally just works; the negative refspec does not add a prefix to ask
about, and hence does not trigger the ls-refs call.
This is esoteric enough that I didn't bother adding a test. The real
value here is in the code simplification.

When we fetch from a configured remote, we may try to update the local
refs/remotes/<origin>/HEAD, and so we ask the server to advertise its
HEAD to us.
But if we aren't otherwise asking about any refs at all, then we know
this HEAD update can never happen! To consider a new value for HEAD,
the set_head() function uses guess_remote_head(). And even if it sees an
explicit symref value for HEAD, it will only report that as a match if
we also saw that remote ref advertised, and it mapped to a local
tracking ref via get_fetch_map().
In other words, a fetch like this:
git fetch origin $exact_oid:refs/heads/foo
can never update HEAD, because we will never have fetched (nor even see
the advertisement for) the ref that HEAD points to.
Currently the command above will still call ls-refs to ask about the
HEAD, even though it is pointless. This patch teaches it to skip the
ls-refs call entirely in this case, which avoids a round-trip to the
server.

When using the ref-prefix feature of protocol v2, a client which sends
no prefixes at all will get the full advertisement. And so the code in
git-fetch was historically loose about setting up that list based on our
refspecs. There were cases where we needed to know about some refs, so
we just didn't add anything to the ref-prefix list.
And hence further code, like that for tag-following and updating
origin/HEAD, had to be careful about adding to an empty list. E.g., see
the bug fixed by bd52d9a058 (fetch: fix following tags when fetching
specific OID, 2025-03-07).
But the previous commit removed the last such case, and now we know an
empty ref-prefix list (at least inside git-fetch's do_fetch() function)
means that we really don't need to see any refs. So we can drop those
extra conditionals.
This simplifies the code a little. But it also means that some cases can
now use ref prefixes when they would not otherwise. As the test shows,
fetching an exact oid into a local ref can now avoid enumerating all of
the refs. The refspec itself doesn't need to know about any remote refs,
and the tag auto-following can just ask about refs/tags/.
The same is true for asking about HEAD to update the local origin/HEAD.
I didn't add a test for that yet, though, as we can optimize it even
further.

If we're not given any refspecs (either on the command line or via
config) and we have no branch merge config, then we fetch the remote
HEAD into our local FETCH_HEAD. In that case we do not send any
ref-prefix option to the server at all, and we see the full
advertisement.
But this is sub-optimal. We only care about HEAD, so we can just ask
for that, and ignore all of the other refs.
The new test demonstrates a case where we see fewer refs (in this case
only one less, but in theory we could be ignoring millions of them).
This also removes the only case where we care about seeing some refs
from the other side, but don't add anything to the ref_prefixes list.
Cleaning this up means one less maintenance burden. Before this patch,
any code which wanted to add to the list had to make sure the list was
not empty, since an empty list meant "ask for everything". Now it really
means "we are not interested in any refs".
This should let us optimize a few more cases in subsequent patches.
Note that we'll add "HEAD" to the list of prefixes, and later code for
updating "refs/remotes/<remote>/HEAD" may likewise do so. In theory this
could cause duplicates in the list, but in practice these can't both
trigger. We hit our new case only if there are no refspecs, and the
"<remote>/HEAD" feature is enabled only when we are fetching from a
remote with configured refspecs. We could be defensive with a flag, but

In 3f763ddf28 (fetch: set remote/HEAD if it does not exist, 2024-11-22),
unconditionally adds "HEAD" to the list of ref prefixes we send to the
server.
This breaks a core assumption that the list of prefixes we send to the
server is complete. We must either send all prefixes we care about, or
none at all (in the latter case the server then advertises everything).
The tag following code is careful to only add "refs/tags/" to the list
of prefixes if there are already entries in the prefix list. But because
the new code from 3f763ddf28 runs after the tag code, and because it
unconditionally adds to the prefix list, we may end up with a prefix
list that _should_ have "refs/tags/" in it, but doesn't.
When that is the case, the server does not advertise any tags, and our
auto-following breaks because we never learned about any tags in the
first place.
Fix this by only adding "HEAD" to the ref prefixes when we know that we
are already limiting the advertisement. In either case we'll learn about
HEAD (either through the limited advertisement, or implicitly through a
full advertisement).

The diffs queued from git-diff-pairs(1) are flushed when stdin is
closed. To enable greater flexibility, allow control over when the diff
queue is flushed by writing a single NUL byte on stdin between input
file pairs. Diff output between flushes is separated by a single NUL
byte.

Through git-diff(1), a single diff can be generated from a pair of blob
revisions directly. Unfortunately, there is not a mechanism to compute
batches of specific file pair diffs in a single process. Such a feature
is particularly useful on the server-side where diffing between a large
set of changes is not feasible all at once due to timeout concerns.
To facilitate this, introduce git-diff-pairs(1) which acts as a backend
passing its NUL-terminated raw diff format input from stdin through diff
machinery to produce various forms of output such as patch or raw.
The raw format was originally designed as an interchange format and
represents the contents of the diff_queued_diff list making it possible
to break the diff pipeline into separate stages. For example,
git-diff-tree(1) can be used as a frontend to compute file pairs to
queue and feed its raw output to git-diff-pairs(1) to compute patches.
With this, batches of diffs can be progressively generated without
having to recompute renames or retrieve object context. Something like
the following:
git diff-tree -r -z -M $old $new |
git diff-pairs -p -z
should generate the same output as `git diff-tree -p -M`. Furthermore,
each line of raw diff formatted input can also be individually fed to a
separate git-diff-pairs(1) process and still produce the same output.

With the preceding refactorings we now only have a couple of implicit
users of `the_repository` left in the "path" subsystem, all of which
depend on global state via `calc_shared_perm()`. Make the dependency on
`the_repository` explicit by passing the repo as a parameter instead and
adjust callers accordingly.
Note that this change bubbles up into a couple of subsystems that were
previously declared as free from `the_repository`. Instead of marking
all of them as `the_repository`-dependent again, we instead use the
repository that is available in the calling context. There are three
exceptions though with "copy.c", "pack-write.c" and "tempfile.c".
Adjusting these would require us to adapt callsites all over the place,
so this is left for a future iteration.
Mark "path.c" as free from `the_repository`.

Remove `git_path()` in favor of the `repo_git_path()` family of
functions, which makes the implicit dependency on `the_repository` go
away.
Note that `git_path()` returned a string allocated via `get_pathname()`,
which uses a rotating set of statically allocated buffers. Consequently,
callers didn't have to free the returned string. The same isn't true for
`repo_common_path()`, so we also have to add logic to free the returned
strings.
This refactoring also allows us to remove `repo_common_pathv()` as well
as `get_pathname()` from the public interface.

Same as with `get_worktree_git_dir()` a couple of commits ago, the
`rerere_path()` function returns paths that need not be free'd by the
caller because `git_path()` internally uses `get_pathname()`.
Refactor the function to instead accept a caller-provided buffer that
the path will be written into, passing on ownership to the caller. This
refactoring prepares us for the removal of `git_path()`.

At now, we have already implemented the ref consistency checks for both
"files-backend" and "packed-backend". Although we would check some
redundant things, it won't cause trouble. So, let's integrate it into
the "git-fsck(1)" command to get feedback from the users. And also by
calling "git refs verify" in "git-fsck(1)", we make sure that the new
added checks don't break.
Introduce a new function "fsck_refs" that initializes and runs a child
process to execute the "git refs verify" command. In order to provide
the user interface create a progress which makes the total task be 1.
It's hard to know how many loose refs we will check now. We might
improve this later.
Then, introduce the option to allow the user to disable checking ref
database consistency. Put this function in the very first execution
sequence of "git-fsck(1)" due to that we don't want the existing code of
"git-fsck(1)" which would implicitly check the consistency of refs to
die the program.
Last, update the test to exercise the code.

In "packed-backend.c", there are some functions such as "create_snapshot"
and "next_record" which would check the correctness of the content of
the "packed-ref" file. When anything is bad, the program will die.
It may seem that we have nothing relevant to above feature, because we
are going to read and parse the raw "packed-ref" file without creating
the snapshot and using the ref iterator to check the consistency.
However, when using "get_worktrees" in "builtin/refs", we would parse
the "HEAD" information. If the referent of the "HEAD" is inside the
"packed-ref", we will call "create_snapshot" function to parse the
"packed-ref" to get the information. No matter whether the entry of
"HEAD" in "packed-ref" is correct, "create_snapshot" would call
"verify_buffer_safe" to check whether there is a newline in the last
line of the file. If not, the program will die.
Although this behavior has no harm for the program, it will
short-circuit the program. When the users execute "git refs verify" or
"git fsck", we should avoid reading the head information, which may
execute the read operation in packed backend with stricter checks to die
the program. Instead, we should continue to check other parts of the
"packed-refs" file completely.
Fortunately, in 465a22b338 (worktree: skip reading HEAD when repairing
worktrees, 2023-12-29), we have introduced a function
"get_worktrees_internal" which allows us to get worktrees without
reading head information.
Create a new exposed function "get_worktrees_without_reading_head", then
replace the "get_worktrees" in "builtin/refs" with the new created
function.
