2024-04-23format-patch: "--rfc=-(WIP)" appends to produce [PATCH (WIP)]Junio C Hamano3-2/+21
In the previous step, the "--rfc" option of "format-patch" learned to take an optional string value to prepend to the subject prefix, so that --rfc=WIP can give "[WIP PATCH]". There may be cases in which the extra string wants to come after the subject prefix. Extend the mechanism to allow "--rfc=-(WIP)" [*] to signal that the extra string is to be appended instead of getting prepended, resulting in "[PATCH (WIP)]". In the documentation, discourage (ab)using "--rfc=-RFC" to say "[PATCH RFC]" just to be different, when "[RFC PATCH]" is the norm. [Footnote] * The syntax takes inspiration from Perl's open syntax that opens pipes "open fh, '|-', 'cmd'", where the dash signals "the other stuff comes here".

2024-04-23format-patch: allow --rfc to optionally take a value, like --rfc=WIPJunio C Hamano3-11/+48
With the "--rfc" option, we can tweak the "[PATCH]" (or whatever string specified with the "--subject-prefix" option, instead of "PATCH") that we prefix the title of the commit with into "[RFC PATCH]", but some projects may want "[rfc PATCH]". Adding a new option, e.g., "--rfc-lowercase", to support such need every time somebody wants to use different strings would lead to insanity of accumulating unbounded number of such options. Allow an optional value specified for the option, so that users can use "--rfc=rfc" (think of "--rfc" without value as a short-hand for "--rfc=RFC") if they wanted to. This can of course be (ab)used to make the prefix "[WIP PATCH]" by passing "--rfc=WIP". Passing an empty string, i.e., "--rfc=", is the same as "--no-rfc" to override an option given earlier on the same command line. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2024-04-18rebase -m: fix --signoff with conflictsPhillip Wood3-21/+94
When rebasing with "--signoff" the commit created by "rebase --continue" after resolving conflicts or editing a commit fails to add the "Signed-off-by:" trailer. This happens because the message from the original commit is reused instead of the one that would have been used if the sequencer had not stopped for the user interaction. The correct message is stored in ctx->message and so with a couple of exceptions this is written to rebase_path_message() when stopping for user interaction instead. The exceptions are (i) "fixup" and "squash" commands where the file is written by error_failed_squash() and (ii) "edit" commands that are fast-forwarded where the original message is still reused. The latter is safe because "--signoff" will never fast-forward. Note this introduces a change in behavior as the message file now contains conflict comments. This is safe because commit_staged_changes() passes an explicit cleanup flag when not editing the message and when the message is being edited it will be cleaned up automatically. This means user now sees the same message comments in editor with "rebase --continue" as they would if they ran "git commit" themselves before continuing the rebase. It also matches the behavior of "git cherry-pick", "git merge" etc. which all list the files with merge conflicts. The tests are extended to check that all commits made after continuing a rebase have a "Signed-off-by:" trailer. Sadly there are a couple of leaks in apply.c which I've not been able to track down that mean this test file is no-longer leak free when testing "git rebase --apply --signoff" with conflicts.

2024-04-18sequencer: store commit message in private contextPhillip Wood1-46/+50
Add an strbuf to "struct replay_ctx" to hold the current commit message. This does not change the behavior but it will allow us to fix a bug with "git rebase --signoff" in the next commit. A future patch series will use the changes here to avoid writing the commit message to disc unless there are conflicts or the commit is being reworded. The changes in do_pick_commit() are a mechanical replacement of "msgbuf" with "ctx->message". In do_merge() the code to write commit message to disc is factored out of the conditional now that both branches store the message in the same buffer.

2024-04-18sequencer: start removing private fields from public APIPhillip Wood2-7/+35
"struct replay_opts" has a number of fields that are for internal use. While they are marked as private having them in a public struct is a distraction for callers and means that every time the internal details are changed we have to recompile all the files that include sequencer.h even though the public API is unchanged. This commit starts the process of removing the private fields by adding an opaque pointer to a "struct replay_ctx" to "struct replay_opts" and moving the "reflog_message" member to the new private struct. The sequencer currently updates the state files on disc each time it processes a command in the todo list. This is an artifact of the scripted implementation and makes the code hard to reason about as it is not possible to get a complete view of the state in memory. In the future we will add new members to "struct replay_ctx" to remedy this and avoid writing state to disc unless the sequencer stops for user interaction.

2024-04-17midx: disable replace objectsXing Xin2-0/+24
We observed a series of clone failures arose in a specific set of repositories after we fully enabled the MIDX bitmap feature within our Codebase service. These failures were accompanied with error messages such as: Cloning into bare repository 'clone.git'... remote: Enumerating objects: 8, done. remote: Total 8 (delta 0), reused 0 (delta 0), pack-reused 8 (from 1) Receiving objects: 100% (8/8), done. fatal: did not receive expected object ... fatal: fetch-pack: invalid index-pack output Temporarily disabling the MIDX feature eliminated the reported issues. After some investigation we found that all repositories experiencing failures contain replace references, which seem to be improperly acknowledged by the MIDX bitmap generation logic. A more thorough explanation about the root cause from Taylor Blau says: Indeed, the pack-bitmap-write machinery does not itself call disable_replace_refs(). So when it generates a reachability bitmap, it is doing so with the replace refs in mind. You can see that this is indeed the cause of the problem by looking at the output of an instrumented version of Git that indicates what bits are being set during the bitmap generation phase. With replace refs (incorrectly) enabled, we get: [2, 4, 6, 8, 13, 3, 6, 7, 3, 4, 6, 8] and doing the same after calling disable_replace_refs(), we instead get: [2, 5, 6, 13, 3, 6, 7, 3, 4, 6, 8] Single pack bitmaps are unaffected by this issue because we generate them from within pack-objects, which does call disable_replace_refs(). This patch updates the MIDX logic to disable replace objects within the multi-pack-index builtin, and a test showing a clone (which would fail with MIDX bitmap) is added to demonstrate the bug.

2024-04-17builtin/receive-pack: convert to use git-maintenance(1)Patrick Steinhardt2-12/+11
In 850b6edefa (auto-gc: extract a reusable helper from "git fetch", 2020-05-06), we have introduced a helper function `run_auto_gc()` that kicks off `git gc --auto`. The intent of this function was to pass down the "--quiet" flag to git-gc(1) as required without duplicating this at all callsites. In 7c3e9e8cfb (auto-gc: pass --quiet down from am, commit, merge and rebase, 2020-05-06) we then converted callsites that need to pass down this flag to use the new helper function. This has the notable omission of git-receive-pack(1), which is the only remaining user of `git gc --auto` that sets up the proccess manually. This is probably because it unconditionally passes down the `--quiet` flag and thus didn't benefit much from the new helper function. In a95ce12430 (maintenance: replace run_auto_gc(), 2020-09-17) we then replaced `run_auto_gc()` with `run_auto_maintenance()` which invokes git-maintenance(1) instead of git-gc(1). This command is the modern replacement for git-gc(1) and is both more thorough and also more flexible because administrators can configure which tasks exactly to run during maintenance. But due to git-receive-pack(1) not using `run_auto_gc()` in the first place it did not get converted to use git-maintenance(1) like we do everywhere else now. Address this oversight and start to use the newly introduced function `prepare_auto_maintenance()`. This will also make it easier for us to adapt this code together with all the other callsites that invoke auto-maintenance in the future. This removes the last internal user of `git gc --auto`.

The `run_auto_maintenance()` function is responsible for spawning a new `git maintenance run --auto` process. To do so, it sets up the `sturct child_process` and then runs it by executing `run_command()` directly.

2024-04-16rerere: fix crashes due to unmatched opening conflict markersMarcel Röthke2-0/+68
When rerere handles a conflict with an unmatched opening conflict marker in a file with other conflicts, it will fail create a preimage and also fail allocate the status member of struct rerere_dir. Currently the status member is allocated after the error handling. This will lead to a SEGFAULT when the status member is accessed during cleanup of the failed parse. Additionally, in subsequent executions of rerere, after removing the MERGE_RR.lock manually, rerere crashes for a similar reason. MERGE_RR points to a conflict id that has no preimage, therefore the status member is not allocated and a SEGFAULT happens when trying to check if a preimage exists. Solve this by making sure the status field is allocated correctly and add tests to prevent the bug from reoccurring. This does not fix the root cause, failing to parse stray conflict markers, but I don't think we can do much better than recognizing it, printing an error, and moving on gracefully.

2024-04-15pack-bitmap: gracefully handle missing BTMP chunksPatrick Steinhardt3-23/+42
In 0fea6b73f1 (Merge branch 'tb/multi-pack-verbatim-reuse', 2024-01-12) we have introduced multi-pack verbatim reuse of objects. This series has introduced a new BTMP chunk, which encodes information about bitmapped objects in the multi-pack index. Starting with dab60934e3 (pack-bitmap: pass `bitmapped_pack` struct to pack-reuse functions, 2023-12-14) we use this information to figure out objects which we can reuse from each of the packfiles. One thing that we glossed over though is backwards compatibility with repositories that do not yet have BTMP chunks in their multi-pack index. In that case, `nth_bitmapped_pack()` would return an error, which causes us to emit a warning followed by another error message. These warnings are visible to users that fetch from a repository: ``` $ git fetch ... remote: error: MIDX does not contain the BTMP chunk remote: warning: unable to load pack: 'pack-f6bb7bd71d345ea9fe604b60cab9ba9ece54ffbe.idx', disabling pack-reuse remote: Enumerating objects: 40, done. remote: Counting objects: 100% (40/40), done. remote: Compressing objects: 100% (39/39), done. remote: Total 40 (delta 5), reused 0 (delta 0), pack-reused 0 (from 0) ... ``` While the fetch succeeds the user is left wondering what they did wrong. Furthermore, as visible both from the warning and from the reuse stats, pack-reuse is completely disabled in such repositories. What is quite interesting is that this issue can even be triggered in case `pack.allowPackReuse=single` is set, which is the default value. One could have expected that in this case we fall back to the old logic, which is to use the preferred packfile without consulting BTMP chunks at all. But either we fail with the above error in case they are missing, or we use the first pack in the multi-pack-index. The former case disables pack-reuse altogether, whereas the latter case may result in reusing objects from a suboptimal packfile. Fix this issue by partially reverting the logic back to what we had before this patch series landed. Namely, in the case where we have no BTMP chunks or when `pack.allowPackReuse=single` are set, we use the preferred pack instead of consulting the BTMP chunks.

2024-04-15reftable/block: avoid copying block iterators on seekPatrick Steinhardt2-20/+14
When seeking a reftable record in a block we need to position the iterator _before_ the sought-after record so that the next call to `block_iter_next()` would yield that record. To achieve this, the loop that performs the linear seeks to restore the previous position once it has found the record. This is done by advancing two `block_iter`s: one to check whether the next record is our sought-after record, and one that we update after every iteration. This of course involves quite a lot of copying and also leads to needless memory allocations. Refactor the code to get rid of the `next` iterator and the copying this involves. Instead, we can restore the previous offset such that the call to `next` will return the correct record. Next to being simpler conceptually this also leads to a nice speedup. The following benchmark parser 10k refs out of 100k existing refs via `git-rev-list --no-walk`: Benchmark 1: rev-list: print many refs (HEAD~) Time (mean ± σ): 170.2 ms ± 1.7 ms [User: 86.1 ms, System: 83.6 ms] Range (min … max): 166.4 ms … 180.3 ms 500 runs Benchmark 2: rev-list: print many refs (HEAD~) Time (mean ± σ): 161.6 ms ± 1.6 ms [User: 78.1 ms, System: 83.0 ms] Range (min … max): 158.4 ms … 172.3 ms 500 runs Summary rev-list: print many refs (HEAD) ran 1.05 ± 0.01 times faster than rev-list: print many refs (HEAD~) Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2024-04-15reftable/block: reuse `zstream` state on inflationPatrick Steinhardt3-10/+19
When calling `inflateInit()` and `inflate()`, the zlib library will allocate several data structures for the underlying `zstream` to keep track of various information. Thus, when inflating repeatedly, it is possible to optimize memory allocation patterns by reusing the `zstream` and then calling `inflateReset()` on it to prepare it for the next chunk of data to inflate. This is exactly what the reftable code is doing: when iterating through reflogs we need to potentially inflate many log blocks, but we discard the `zstream` every single time. Instead, as we reuse the `block_reader` for each of the blocks anyway, we can initialize the `zstream` once and then reuse it for subsequent inflations. Refactor the code to do so, which leads to a significant reduction in the number of allocations. The following measurements were done when iterating through 1 million reflog entries. Before: HEAP SUMMARY: in use at exit: 13,473 bytes in 122 blocks total heap usage: 23,028 allocs, 22,906 frees, 162,813,552 bytes allocated After: HEAP SUMMARY: in use at exit: 13,473 bytes in 122 blocks total heap usage: 302 allocs, 180 frees, 88,352 bytes allocated Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2024-04-15reftable/block: open-code call to `uncompress2()`Patrick Steinhardt1-10/+28
The reftable format stores log blocks in a compressed format. Thus, whenever we want to read such a block we first need to decompress it. This is done by calling the convenience function `uncompress2()` of the zlib library, which is a simple wrapper that manages the lifecycle of the `zstream` structure for us. While nice for one-off inflation of data, when iterating through reflogs we will likely end up inflating many such log blocks. This requires us to reallocate the state of the `zstream` every single time, which adds up over time. It would thus be great to reuse the `zstream` instead of discarding it after every inflation. Open-code the call to `uncompress2()` such that we can start reusing the `zstream` in the subsequent commit. Note that our open-coded variant is different from `uncompress2()` in two ways: - We do not loop around `inflate()` until we have processed all input. As our input is limited by the maximum block size, which is 16MB, we should not hit limits of `inflate()`. - We use `Z_FINISH` instead of `Z_NO_FLUSH`. Quoting the `inflate()` documentation: "inflate() should normally be called until it returns Z_STREAM_END or an error. However if all decompression is to be performed in a single step (a single call of inflate), the parameter flush should be set to Z_FINISH." Furthermore, "Z_FINISH also informs inflate to not maintain a sliding window if the stream completes, which reduces inflate's memory footprint." Other than that this commit is expected to be functionally equivalent and does not yet reuse the `zstream`.

2024-04-15reftable/block: reuse uncompressed blocksPatrick Steinhardt3-19/+26
The reftable backend stores reflog entries in a compressed format and thus needs to uncompress blocks before one can read records from it. For each reflog block we thus have to allocate an array that we can decompress the block contents into. This block is being discarded whenever the table iterator moves to the next block. Consequently, we reallocate a new array on every block, which is quite wasteful. Refactor the code to reuse the uncompressed block data when moving the block reader to a new block. This significantly reduces the number of allocations when iterating through many compressed blocks. The following measurements are done with `git reflog list` when listing 100k reflogs.

2024-04-15reftable/reader: iterate to next block in placePatrick Steinhardt2-21/+28
The table iterator has to iterate towards the next block once it has yielded all records of the current block. This is done by creating a new table iterator, initializing it to the next block, releasing the old iterator and then copying over the data. Refactor the code to instead advance the table iterator in place. This is simpler and unlocks some optimizations in subsequent patches. Also, it allows us to avoid some allocations. The following measurements show a single matching ref out of 1 million refs.
