When queueing references in git-rev-list(1), we try to optimize parsing
of commits via the commit-graph. To do so, we first look up the object's
type, and if it is a commit we call `repo_parse_commit()` instead of
`parse_object()`. This is quite inefficient though given that we're
always uncompressing the object header in order to determine the type.
Instead, we can opportunistically search the commit-graph for the object
ID: in case it's found, we know it's a commit and can directly fill in
the commit object without having to uncompress the object header.
Expose a new function `lookup_commit_in_graph()`, which tries to find a
commit in the commit-graph by ID, and convert `get_reference()` to use
this function. This provides a big performance win in cases where we
load references in a repository with lots of references pointing to
commits. The following has been executed in a real-world repository with
about 2.2 million refs:
Benchmark #1: HEAD~: rev-list --unsorted-input --objects --quiet --not --all --not $newrev

The function `find_commit_in_graph()` assumes that the caller has passed
an object which was already determined to be a commit given that it will
access the commit's graph position, which is stored in a commit slab. In
a subsequent patch, we want to search for an object ID though without
knowing whether it is a commit or not, which is not currently possible.
Split out the logic to search the commit graph for a given object ID to
prepare for this change. This commit also renames the function to
`find_commit_pos_in_graph()`, which more accurately reflects what this
function does. Furthermore, in order to allow for the searched object ID
to be const, we need to adjust `bsearch_graph()`'s signature to accept a
constant object ID as input, too.

When queueing up references for the revision walk, `handle_one_ref()`
will resolve the reference's object ID via `get_reference()` and then
queue the ID as pending object via `add_pending_oid()`. But given that
`add_pending_oid()` is only a thin wrapper around `add_pending_object()`
which fist calls `get_reference()`, we effectively resolve the reference
twice and thus duplicate some of the work.
Fix the issue by instead calling `add_pending_object()` directly, which
takes the already-resolved object as input. In a repository with lots of
refs, this translates into a near 10% speedup:
Benchmark #1: HEAD~: rev-list --unsorted-input --objects --quiet --not --all --not $newrev
Time (mean ± σ): 5.015 s ± 0.038 s [User: 4.698 s, System: 0.316 s]

In order to compute whether objects reachable from a set of tips are all
connected, we do a revision walk with these tips as positive references
and `--not --all`. `--not --all` will cause the revision walk to load
all preexisting references as uninteresting, which can be very expensive
in repositories with many references.
Benchmarking the git-rev-list(1) command highlights that by far the most
expensive single phase is initial sorting of the input revisions: after
all references have been loaded, we first sort commits by author date.
In a real-world repository with about 2.2 million references, it makes
up about 40% of the total runtime of git-rev-list(1).
Ultimately, the connectivity check shouldn't really bother about the
order of input revisions at all. We only care whether we can actually
walk all objects until we hit the cut-off point. So sorting the input is
a complete waste of time.
Introduce a new "--unsorted-input" flag to git-rev-list(1) which will
cause it to not sort the commits and adjust the connectivity check to
always pass the flag. This results in the following speedups, executed
in a clone of gitlab-org/gitlab [1]:
Benchmark #1: git rev-list --objects --quiet --not --all --not $(cat newrev)
Time (mean ± σ): 7.639 s ± 0.065 s [User: 7.304 s, System: 0.335 s]
Range (min … max): 7.543 s … 7.742 s 10 runs
Benchmark #2: git rev-list --unsorted-input --objects --quiet --not --all --not $newrev
Time (mean ± σ): 4.995 s ± 0.044 s [User: 4.657 s, System: 0.337 s]
Range (min … max): 4.909 s … 5.048 s 10 runs
Summary
'git rev-list --unsorted-input --objects --quiet --not --all --not $(cat newrev)' ran
1.53 ± 0.02 times faster than 'git rev-list --objects --quiet --not --all --not $newrev'

The `--no-walk` flag supports two modes: either it sorts the revisions
given as input input or it doesn't. This is reflected in a single
`no_walk` flag, which reflects one of the three states "walk", "don't
walk but without sorting" and "don't walk but with sorting".
Split up the flag into two separate bits, one indicating whether we
should walk or not and one indicating whether the input should be sorted
or not. This will allow us to more easily introduce a new flag
`--unsorted-input`, which only impacts the sorting bit.

When performing a rebase, rmdir() is called on the folder .git/logs. On
Unix rmdir() exits without deleting anything in case .git/logs is a
symbolic link but the equivalent functions on Windows (_rmdir, _wrmdir
and RemoveDirectoryW) do not behave the same and remove the folder if it
is symlinked even if it is not empty.
This creates issues when folders in .git/ are symlinks which is
especially the case when git-repo[1] is used: It replaces `.git/logs/`
with a symlink.
One such issue is that the _target_ of that symlink is removed e.g.
during a `git rebase`, where `delete_reflog("REBASE_HEAD")` will not
only try to remove `.git/logs/REBASE_HEAD` but then recursively try to
remove the parent directories until an error occurs, a technique that
obviously relies on `rmdir()` refusing to remove a symlink.
This was reported in https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/2967.
This commit updates mingw_rmdir() so that its behavior is the same as
Linux rmdir() in case of symbolic links.
To verify that Git does not regress on the reported issue, this patch
adds a regression test for the `git rebase` symptom, even if the same
`rmdir()` behavior is quite likely to cause potential problems in other
Git commands as well.
[1]: git-repo is a python tool built on top of Git which helps manage
many Git repositories. It stores all the .git/ folders in a central
place by taking advantage of symbolic links.

With a54e938e5b (strbuf: support long paths w/o read rights in
strbuf_getcwd() on FreeBSD, 2017-03-26) we had t0001 break on systems
like OpenBSD and AIX whose getcwd(3) has standard (but not like glibc
et al) behavior.
This was partially fixed in bed67874e2 (t0001: skip test with
restrictive permissions if getpwd(3) respects them, 2017-08-07).
The problem with that fix is that while its analysis of the problem is
correct, it doesn't actually call getcwd(3), instead it invokes "pwd
-P". There is no guarantee that "pwd -P" is going to call getcwd(3),
as opposed to e.g. being a shell built-in.
On AIX under both bash and ksh this test breaks because "pwd -P" will
happily display the current working directory, but getcwd(3) called by
the "git init" we're testing here will fail to get it.
I checked whether clobbering the $PWD environment variable would
affect it, and it didn't. Presumably these shells keep track of their
working directory internally.
There's possible follow-up work here in teaching strbuf_getcwd() to
get the working directory with whatever method "pwd" uses on these
platforms. See [1] for a discussion of that, but let's take the easy
way out here and just skip these tests by fixing the
GETCWD_IGNORES_PERMS prerequisite to match the limitations of
strbuf_getcwd().
