Ignoring the sparse-checkout feature momentarily, if one has a submodule and
creates local branches within it with unpushed changes and maybe adds some
untracked files to it, then we would want to avoid accidentally removing such
a submodule. So, for example with git.git, if you run
git checkout v2.13.0
then the sha1collisiondetection/ submodule is NOT removed even though it
did not exist as a submodule until v2.14.0. Similarly, if you only had
v2.13.0 checked out previously and ran
git checkout v2.14.0
the sha1collisiondetection/ submodule would NOT be automatically
initialized despite being part of v2.14.0. In both cases, git requires
submodules to be initialized or deinitialized separately. Further, we
also have special handling for submodules in other commands such as
clean, which requires two --force flags to delete untracked submodules,
and some commands have a --recurse-submodules flag.
sparse-checkout is very similar to checkout, as evidenced by the similar
name -- it adds and removes files from the working copy. However, for
the same avoid-data-loss reasons we do not want to remove a submodule
from the working copy with checkout, we do not want to do it with
sparse-checkout either. So submodules need to be separately initialized
or deinitialized; changing sparse-checkout rules should not
automatically trigger the removal or vivification of submodules.
I believe the previous wording in git-sparse-checkout.txt about
submodules was only about this particular issue. Unfortunately, the
previous wording could be interpreted to imply that submodules should be
considered active regardless of sparsity patterns. Update the wording
to avoid making such an implication. It may be helpful to consider two
example situations where the differences in wording become important:
In the future, we want users to be able to run commands like
git clone --sparse=moduleA --recurse-submodules $REPO_URL
and have sparsity paths automatically set up and have submodules *within
the sparsity paths* be automatically initialized. We do not want all
submodules in any path to be automatically initialized with that
command.
Similarly, we want to be able to do things like
git -c sparse.restrictCmds grep --recurse-submodules $REV $PATTERN
and search through $REV for $PATTERN within the recorded sparsity
patterns. We want it to recurse into submodules within those sparsity
patterns, but do not want to recurse into directories that do not match
the sparsity patterns in search of a possible submodule.

"git worktree add" takes special care to avoid creating a new worktree
at a location already registered to an existing worktree even if that
worktree is missing (which can happen, for instance, if the worktree
resides on removable media). "git worktree move", however, is not so
careful when validating the destination location and will happily move
the source worktree atop the location of a missing worktree. This leads
to the anomalous situation of multiple worktrees being associated with
the same path, which is expressly forbidden by design. For example:
$ git clone foo.git
$ cd foo
$ git worktree add ../bar
$ git worktree add ../baz
$ rm -rf ../bar
$ git worktree move ../baz ../bar
$ git worktree list
.../foo beefd00f [master]
.../bar beefd00f [bar]
.../bar beefd00f [baz]
$ git worktree remove ../bar
fatal: validation failed, cannot remove working tree:
'.../bar' does not point back to '.git/worktrees/bar'
Fix this shortcoming by enhancing "git worktree move" to perform the
same additional validation of the destination directory as done by "git
worktree add".
While at it, add a test to verify that "git worktree move" won't move a
worktree atop an existing (non-worktree) path -- a restriction which has
always been in place but was never tested.

"git worktree add" checks that the specified path is a valid location
for a new worktree by ensuring that the path does not already exist and
is not already registered to another worktree (a path can be registered
but missing, for instance, if it resides on removable media). Since "git
worktree add" is not the only command which should perform such
validation ("git worktree move" ought to also), generalize the the
validation function for use by other callers, as well.

"git worktree prune" detects when multiple entries are associated with
the same path and prunes the duplicates, however, it does not detect
when a linked worktree points at the path of the main worktree.
Although "git worktree add" disallows creating a new worktree with the
same path as the main worktree, such a case can arise outside the
control of Git even without the user mucking with .git/worktree/<id>/
administrative files. For instance:
$ git clone foo.git
$ git -C foo worktree add ../bar
$ rm -rf bar
$ mv foo bar
$ git -C bar worktree list
.../bar deadfeeb [master]
.../bar deadfeeb [bar]
Help the user recover from such corruption by extending "git worktree
prune" to also detect when a linked worktree is associated with the path
of the main worktree.

A fundamental restriction of linked working trees is that there must
only ever be a single worktree associated with a particular path, thus
"git worktree add" explicitly disallows creation of a new worktree at
the same location as an existing registered worktree. Nevertheless,
users can still "shoot themselves in the foot" by mucking with
administrative files in .git/worktree/<id>/. Worse, "git worktree move"
is careless[1] and allows a worktree to be moved atop a registered but
missing worktree (which can happen, for instance, if the worktree is on
removable media). For instance:
$ git clone foo.git
$ cd foo
$ git worktree add ../bar
$ git worktree add ../baz
$ rm -rf ../bar
$ git worktree move ../baz ../bar
$ git worktree list
.../foo beefd00f [master]
.../bar beefd00f [bar]
.../bar beefd00f [baz]
Help users recover from this form of corruption by teaching "git
worktree prune" to detect when multiple worktrees are associated with
the same path.

The low-level logic for removing a worktree is well encapsulated in
delete_git_dir(). However, high-level details related to pruning a
worktree -- such as dealing with verbosity and dry-run mode -- are not
encapsulated. Factor out this high-level logic into its own function so
it can be re-used as new worktree corruption detectors are added.

Shawn Pearce explains:
Some repositories contain a lot of references (e.g. android at 866k,
rails at 31k). The reftable format provides:
- Near constant time lookup for any single reference, even when the
repository is cold and not in process or kernel cache.
- Near constant time verification if a SHA-1 is referred to by at least
one reference (for allow-tip-sha1-in-want).
- Efficient lookup of an entire namespace, such as `refs/tags/`.
- Support atomic push `O(size_of_update)` operations.
- Combine reflog storage with ref storage.
This file format spec was originally written in July, 2017 by Shawn
Pearce. Some refinements since then were made by Shawn and by Han-Wen
Nienhuys based on experiences implementing and experimenting with the
format. (All of this was in the context of our work at Google and
Google is happy to contribute the result to the Git project.)

For each worktree removed by "git worktree prune", it reports the reason
for the removal. All reasons share the common prefix "Removing
worktrees/%s:". As new removal reasons are added, this prefix needs to
be duplicated, which is error-prone and potentially cumbersome.
Therefore, factor out the common prefix.
Although this change seems to increase the "sentence lego quotient", it
should be reasonably safe, as the reason for removal is a distinct
clause, not strictly related to the prefix. Moreover, the "worktrees" in
"Removing worktrees/%s:" is a path literal which ought not be localized,
so by factoring it out, we can more easily avoid exposing that path
fragment to translators.

do_match_pathspec() started life as match_pathspec_depth_1() and for
correctness was only supposed to be called from match_pathspec_depth().
match_pathspec_depth() was later renamed to match_pathspec(), so the
invariant we expect today is that do_match_pathspec() has no direct
callers outside of match_pathspec().
Unfortunately, this intention was lost with the renames of the two
functions, and additional calls to do_match_pathspec() were added in
commits 75a6315f74 ("ls-files: add pathspec matching for submodules",
2016-10-07) and 89a1f4aaf7 ("dir: if our pathspec might match files
under a dir, recurse into it", 2019-09-17). Of course,
do_match_pathspec() had an important advantge over match_pathspec() --
match_pathspec() would hardcode flags to one of two values, and these
new callers needed to pass some other value for flags. Also, although
calling do_match_pathspec() directly was incorrect, there likely wasn't
any difference in the observable end output, because the bug just meant
that fill_diretory() would recurse into unneeded directories. Since
subsequent does-this-path-match checks on individual paths under the
directory would cause those extra paths to be filtered out, the only
difference from using the wrong function was unnecessary computation.
The second of those bad calls to do_match_pathspec() was involved -- via
either direct movement or via copying+editing -- into a number of later
refactors. See commits 777b420347 ("dir: synchronize
treat_leading_path() and read_directory_recursive()", 2019-12-19),
8d92fb2927 ("dir: replace exponential algorithm with a linear one",
2020-04-01), and 95c11ecc73 ("Fix error-prone fill_directory() API; make
it only return matches", 2020-04-01). The last of those introduced the
usage of do_match_pathspec() on an individual file, and thus resulted in
individual paths being returned that shouldn't be.
The problem with calling do_match_pathspec() instead of match_pathspec()
is that any negated patterns such as ':!unwanted_path` will be ignored.
Add a new match_pathspec_with_flags() function to fulfill the needs of
specifying special flags while still correctly checking negated
patterns, add a big comment above do_match_pathspec() to prevent others
from misusing it, and correct current callers of do_match_pathspec() to
instead use either match_pathspec() or match_pathspec_with_flags().
One final note is that DO_MATCH_LEADING_PATHSPEC needs special
consideration when working with DO_MATCH_EXCLUDE. The point of
DO_MATCH_LEADING_PATHSPEC is that if we have a pathspec like
*/Makefile
and we are checking a directory path like
src/module/component
that we want to consider it a match so that we recurse into the
directory because it _might_ have a file named Makefile somewhere below.
However, when we are using an exclusion pattern, i.e. we have a pathspec
like
:(exclude)*/Makefile
we do NOT want to say that a directory path like
src/module/component
is a (negative) match. While there *might* be a file named 'Makefile'
somewhere below that directory, there could also be other files and we
cannot pre-emptively rule all the files under that directory out; we
need to recurse and then check individual files. Adjust the
DO_MATCH_LEADING_PATHSPEC logic to only get activated for positive
pathspecs.

sparse-checkout's purpose is to update the working tree to have it
reflect a subset of the tracked files. As such, it shouldn't be
switching branches, making commits, downloading or uploading data, or
staging or unstaging changes. Other than updating the worktree, the
only thing sparse-checkout should touch is the SKIP_WORKTREE bit of the
index. In particular, this sets up a nice invariant: running
sparse-checkout will never change the status of any file in `git status`
(reflecting the fact that we only set the SKIP_WORKTREE bit if the file
is safe to delete, i.e. if the file is unmodified).
Traditionally, we did a _really_ bad job with this goal. The
predecessor to sparse-checkout involved manual editing of
.git/info/sparse-checkout and running `git read-tree -mu HEAD`. That
command would stage and unstage changes and overwrite dirty changes in
the working tree.
The initial implementation of the sparse-checkout command was no better;
it simply invoked `git read-tree -mu HEAD` as a subprocess and had the
same caveats, though this issue came up repeatedly in review comments
and workarounds for the problems were put in place before the feature
was merged[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6; especially see 4 & 6].

However, these workarounds, in addition to disabling the feature in a
number of important cases, also missed one special case. I'll get back
to it later.
In the 2.27.0 cycle, the disabling of the feature was lifted by finally
replacing the internal equivalent of `git read-tree -mu HEAD` with
something that did what we wanted: the new update_sparsity() function in
unpack-trees.c that only ever updates SKIP_WORKTREE bits in the index
and updates the working tree to match. This new function handles all
the cases that were problematic for the old implementation, except that
it breaks the same special case that avoided the workarounds of the old
implementation, but broke it in a different way.
So...that brings us to the special case: a git clone performed with
--no-checkout. As per the meaning of the flag, --no-checkout does not
check out any branch, with the implication that you aren't on one and
need to switch to one after the clone. Implementationally, HEAD is
still set (so in some sense you are partially on a branch), but
* the index is "unborn" (non-existent)
* there are no files in the working tree (other than .git/)
* the next time git switch (or git checkout) is run it will run
unpack_trees with `initial_checkout` flag set to true.
It is not until you run, e.g. `git switch <somebranch>` that the index
will be written and files in the working tree populated.
With this special --no-checkout case, the traditional `read-tree -mu
HEAD` behavior would have done the equivalent of acting like checkout --
switch to the default branch (HEAD), write out an index that matches
HEAD, and update the working tree to match. This special case slipped
through the avoid-making-changes checks in the original sparse-checkout
command and thus continued there.
After update_sparsity() was introduced and used (see commit f56f31af03
("sparse-checkout: use new update_sparsity() function", 2020-03-27)),
the behavior for the --no-checkout case changed: Due to git's
auto-vivification of an empty in-memory index (see do_read_index() and
note that `must_exist` is false), and due to sparse-checkout's
update_working_directory() code to always write out the index after it
was done, we got a new bug. That made it so that sparse-checkout would
switch the repository from a clone with an "unborn" index (i.e. still
needing an initial_checkout), to one that had a recorded index with no
entries. Thus, instead of all the files appearing deleted in `git
status` being known to git as a special artifact of not yet being on a
branch, our recording of an empty index made it suddenly look to git as
though it was definitely on a branch with ALL files staged for deletion!
A subsequent checkout or switch then had to contend with the fact that
it wasn't on an initial_checkout but had a bunch of staged deletions.
Make sure that sparse-checkout changes nothing in the index other than
the SKIP_WORKTREE bit; in particular, when the index is unborn we do not
have any branch checked out so there is no sparsification or
de-sparsification work to do. Simply return from
update_working_directory() early.

In 897d68e7af82 (Makefile: use curl-config --cflags, 2020-03-26), we
taught the build process to use `curl-config --cflags` to make sure that
it can find cURL's headers.
In the MSVC build, this is completely bogus because we're running in a
Git for Windows SDK whose `curl-config` supports the _GCC_ build.
Let's just ignore each and every `-I<path>` option where `<path>` points
to GCC/Clang specific headers.

Even if we strongly discourage putting credentials into the URLs passed
via the command-line, there _is_ support for that, and users _do_ do
that.
Let's scrub them before writing them to the reflog.

As we cleanup 'upload-pack.c' by using 'struct upload_pack_data'
more thoroughly, let's move the 'pack_objects_hook' static
variable into this struct.
It is used by code common to protocol v0 and protocol v2.
While at it let's also free() it in upload_pack_data_clear().
