This reverts commit f45022dc2fd692fd024f2eb41a86a66f19013d43,
as this is like breakage in the traversal more likely. In a
history with 10 single strand of pearls,
1-->2-->3--...->7-->8-->9-->10
asking "rev-list --unsorted-input 1 10 --not 9 8 7 6 5 4" fails to
paint the bottom 1 uninteresting as the traversal stops, without
completing the propagation of uninteresting bit starting at 4 down
through 3 and 2 to 1.

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

Range (min … max): 4.909 s … 5.048 s 10 runs
Summary

In general, we encourage users to use plumbing commands, like git
rev-list, over porcelain commands, like git log, when scripting.
However, git rev-list has one glaring problem that prevents it from
being used in certain cases: when --pretty is used with a custom format,
it always prints out a line containing "commit" and the object ID. This
makes it unsuitable for many scripting needs, and forces users to use
git log instead.
While we can't change this behavior for backwards compatibility, we can
add an option to suppress this behavior, so let's do so, and call it
"--no-commit-header". Additionally, add the corresponding positive
option to switch it back on.
Note that this option doesn't affect the built-in formats, only custom
formats. This is exactly the same behavior as users already have from
git log and is what most users will be used to.

When providing an object filter, it is currently impossible to also
filter provided items. E.g. when executing `git rev-list HEAD` , the
commit this reference points to will be treated as user-provided and is
thus excluded from the filtering mechanism. This makes it harder than
necessary to properly use the new `--filter=object:type` filter given
that even if the user wants to only see blobs, he'll still see commits
of provided references.
Improve this by introducing a new `--filter-provided-objects` option
to the git-rev-parse(1) command. If given, then all user-provided
references will be subject to filtering.

While it already is possible to filter objects by some criteria in
git-rev-list(1), it is not yet possible to filter out only a specific
type of objects. This makes some filters less useful. The `blob:limit`
filter for example filters blobs such that only those which are smaller
than the given limit are returned. But it is unfit to ask only for these
smallish blobs, given that git-rev-list(1) will continue to print tags,
commits and trees.
Now that we have the infrastructure in place to also filter tags and
commits, we can improve this situation by implementing a new filter
which selects objects based on their type. Above query can thus
trivially be implemented with the following command:
$ git rev-list --objects --filter=object:type=blob \
--filter=blob:limit=200
Furthermore, this filter allows to optimize for certain other cases: if
for example only tags or commits have been selected, there is no need to
walk down trees.
The new filter is not yet supported in bitmaps. This is going to be
implemented in a subsequent commit.

In git-log(1) -- but not in git-shortlog(1) or git-rev-list(1) -- we

we forgot to add a lone "+" for a list continuation, and we shouldn't

indentation and the `backticks` render literally.

It can sometimes be useful to see which refs are contributing to the
overall repository size (e.g., does some branch have a bunch of objects
not found elsewhere in history, which indicates that deleting it would
shrink the size of a clone).
You can find that out by generating a list of objects, getting their
sizes from cat-file, and then summing them, like:
git rev-list --objects --no-object-names main..branch
git cat-file --batch-check='%(objectsize:disk)' |
perl -lne '$total += $_; END { print $total }'
Though note that the caveats from git-cat-file(1) apply here. We "blame"
base objects more than their deltas, even though the relationship could
easily be flipped. Still, it can be a useful rough measure.
But one problem is that it's slow to run. Teaching rev-list to sum up
the sizes can be much faster for two reasons:
1. It skips all of the piping of object names and sizes.
2. If bitmaps are in use, for objects that are in the
bitmapped packfile we can skip the oid_object_info()
lookup entirely, and just ask the revindex for the
on-disk size.
This patch implements a --disk-usage option which produces the same
answer in a fraction of the time. Here are some timings using a clone of
torvalds/linux:
[rev-list piped to cat-file, no bitmaps]
$ time git rev-list --objects --no-object-names --all |
git cat-file --buffer --batch-check='%(objectsize:disk)' |
perl -lne '$total += $_; END { print $total }'
1459938510
real 0m29.635s
user 0m38.003s
sys 0m1.093s
[internal, no bitmaps]
$ time git rev-list --disk-usage --objects --all
1459938510
real 0m31.262s
user 0m30.885s
sys 0m0.376s
Even though the wall-clock time is slightly worse due to parallelism,
notice the CPU savings between the two. We saved 21% of the CPU just by
avoiding the pipes.
But the real win is with bitmaps. If we use them without the new option:
[rev-list piped to cat-file, bitmaps]
$ time git rev-list --objects --no-object-names --all --use-bitmap-index |
git cat-file --batch-check='%(objectsize:disk)' |
perl -lne '$total += $_; END { print $total }'
1459938510
real 0m6.244s
user 0m8.452s
sys 0m0.311s
then we're faster to generate the list of objects, but we still spend a
lot of time piping and looking things up. But if we do both together:
[internal, bitmaps]
$ time git rev-list --disk-usage --objects --all --use-bitmap-index
1459938510
real 0m0.219s
user 0m0.169s
sys 0m0.049s
then we get the same answer much faster.
For "--all", that answer will correspond closely to "du objects/pack",
of course. But we're actually checking reachability here, so we're still
fast when we ask for more interesting things:
$ time git rev-list --disk-usage --use-bitmap-index v5.0..v5.10
374798628
real 0m0.429s
user 0m0.356s

Our rev-list-options.txt include has a "Diff Formatting" section, but it
is ifndef'd out for all manpages except git-log. And a few bits of the
text are rather out of date.
We say "some of these options are specific to git-rev-list". That's
obviously silly since we (even before this patch) show the content only
for git-log. But moreover, it's not true; each of the listed options is
meaningful for other diff commands.
We also say "...however other diff options may be given. See git-diff-files
for more options." But there's no need to do so; git-log already has a
"Common Diff Options" section which includes diff-options.txt.
So let's move these options over to git-log and put them with the other
diff options, giving a single "diff" section for the git-log
documentation. We'll call it "Diff Formatting" but use the all-caps
top-level header to match its sibling sections. And we'll rewrite the
section intro to remove the useless bits and give a more generic
overview of the section which can be later extended.

The "-m" option sets revs->ignore_merges to "0", but there's no way to
undo it. This probably isn't something anybody overly cares about, since
"1" is already the default, but it will serve as an escape hatch when we
flip the default for ignore_merges to "0" in more situations.
We'll also add a few extra niceties:
- initialize the value to "-1" to indicate "not set", and then resolve
it to the normal 0/1 bool in setup_revisions(). This lets any tweak
functions, as well as setup_revisions() itself, avoid clobbering the
user's preference (which until now they couldn't actually express).
- since we now have --no-diff-merges, let's add the matching
--diff-merges, which is just a synonym for "-m". Then we don't even
need to document --no-diff-merges separately; it countermands the
long form of "-m" in the usual way.
The new test shows that this behaves just the same as the current
behavior without "-m".

The explanation of the `--show-pulls` option added in commit 8d049e182e
("revision: --show-pulls adds helpful merges", 2020-04-10) consists of
several paragraphs and we use "+" throughout to tie them together in one
long chain of list continuations. Only thing is, we're not in any kind
of list, so these pluses end up being rendered literally.
The preceding few paragraphs describe `--ancestry-path` and there we
*do* have a list, since we've started one with `--ancestry-path::`. In
fact, we have several such lists for all the various history-simplifying
options we're discussing earlier in this file.
Thus, we're missing a list both from a consistency point of view and
from a practical rendering standpoint.
Let's start a list for `--show-pulls` where we start actually discussing
the option, and keep the paragraphs preceding it out of that list. That
is, drop all those pluses before the new list we're adding here.

The default file history simplification of "git log -- <path>" or
"git rev-list -- <path>" focuses on providing the smallest set of
commits that first contributed a change. The revision walk greatly
restricts the set of walked commits by visiting only the first
TREESAME parent of a merge commit, when one exists. This means
that portions of the commit-graph are not walked, which can be a
performance benefit, but can also "hide" commits that added changes
but were ignored by a merge resolution.
The --full-history option modifies this by walking all commits and
reporting a merge commit as "interesting" if it has _any_ parent
that is not TREESAME. This tends to be an over-representation of
important commits, especially in an environment where most merge
commits are created by pull request completion.
Suppose we have a commit A and we create a commit B on top that
changes our file. When we merge the pull request, we create a merge
commit M. If no one else changed the file in the first-parent
history between M and A, then M will not be TREESAME to its first
parent, but will be TREESAME to B. Thus, the simplified history
will be "B". However, M will appear in the --full-history mode.
However, suppose that a number of topics T1, T2, ..., Tn were
created based on commits C1, C2, ..., Cn between A and M as
follows:
A----C1----C2--- ... ---Cn----M------P1---P2--- ... ---Pn
\ \ \ \ / / / /
\ \__.. \ \/ ..__T1 / Tn
\ \__.. /\ ..__T2 /
\_____________________B \____________________/
If the commits T1, T2, ... Tn did not change the file, then all of
P1 through Pn will be TREESAME to their first parent, but not
TREESAME to their second. This means that all of those merge commits
appear in the --full-history view, with edges that immediately
collapse into the lower history without introducing interesting
single-parent commits.
The --simplify-merges option was introduced to remove these extra
merge commits. By noticing that the rewritten parents are reachable
from their first parents, those edges can be simplified away. Finally,
the commits now look like single-parent commits that are TREESAME to
their "only" parent. Thus, they are removed and this issue does not
cause issues anymore. However, this also ends up removing the commit
M from the history view! Even worse, the --simplify-merges option
requires walking the entire history before returning a single result.
Many Git users are using Git alongside a Git service that provides
code storage alongside a code review tool commonly called "Pull
Requests" or "Merge Requests" against a target branch. When these
requests are accepted and merged, they typically create a merge
commit whose first parent is the previous branch tip and the second
parent is the tip of the topic branch used for the request. This
presents a valuable order to the parents, but also makes that merge
commit slightly special. Users may want to see not only which
commits changed a file, but which pull requests merged those commits
into their branch. In the previous example, this would mean the
users want to see the merge commit "M" in addition to the single-
parent commit "C".
Users are even more likely to want these merge commits when they
use pull requests to merge into a feature branch before merging that
feature branch into their trunk.
In some sense, users are asking for the "first" merge commit to
bring in the change to their branch. As long as the parent order is
consistent, this can be handled with the following rule:
Include a merge commit if it is not TREESAME to its first
parent, but is TREESAME to a later parent.
These merges look like the merge commits that would result from
running "git pull <topic>" on a main branch. Thus, the option to
show these commits is called "--show-pulls". This has the added
benefit of showing the commits created by closing a pull request or
merge request on any of the Git hosting and code review platforms.
To test these options, extend the standard test example to include
a merge commit that is not TREESAME to its first parent. It is
surprising that that option was not already in the example, as it
is instructive.
In particular, this extension demonstrates a common issue with file
history simplification. When a user resolves a merge conflict using
"-Xours" or otherwise ignoring one side of the conflict, they create
a TREESAME edge that probably should not be TREESAME. This leads
users to become frustrated and complain that "my change disappeared!"
In my experience, showing them history with --full-history and
--simplify-merges quickly reveals the problematic merge. As mentioned,
this option is expensive to compute. The --show-pulls option
_might_ show the merge commit (usually titled "resolving conflicts")
more quickly. Of course, this depends on the user having the correct
parent order, which is backwards when using "git pull master" from a
topic branch.
There are some special considerations when combining the --show-pulls
option with --simplify-merges. This requires adding a new PULL_MERGE
object flag to store the information from the initial TREESAME
comparisons. This helps avoid dropping those commits in later filters.
This is covered by a test, including how the parents can be simplified.
Since "struct object" has already ruined its 32-bit alignment by using
33 bits across parsed, type, and flags member, let's not make it worse.
PULL_MERGE is used in revision.c with the same value (1u<<15) as
REACHABLE in commit-graph.c. The REACHABLE flag is only used when
writing a commit-graph file, and a revision walk using --show-pulls
does not happen in the same process. Care must be taken in the future
to ensure this remains the case.
Update Documentation/rev-list-options.txt with significant details
around this option. This requires updating the example in the
History Simplification section to demonstrate some of the problems
with TREESAME second parents.

The standard format for referencing other commits within some projects
(such as git.git) is the reference format. This is described in
Documentation/SubmittingPatches as
If you want to reference a previous commit in the history of a stable
branch, use the format "abbreviated hash (subject, date)", like this:
....
Commit f86a374 (pack-bitmap.c: fix a memleak, 2015-03-30)
noticed that ...
....
Since this format is so commonly used, standardize it as a pretty
format.
The tests that are implemented essentially show that the format-string
does not change in response to various log options. This is useful
because, for future developers, it shows that we've considered the
limitations of the "canned format-string" approach and we are fine with
them.

When we receive a remote ref update to sha1 "X", we want to check that
we have all of the objects needed by "X". We can assume that our
repository is not currently corrupted, and therefore if we have a ref
pointing at "Y", we have all of its objects. So we can stop our
traversal from "X" as soon as we hit "Y".
If we make the same non-corruption assumption about any repositories we
use to store alternates, then we can also use their ref tips to shorten
the traversal.
This is especially useful when cloning with "--reference", as we
otherwise do not have any local refs to check against, and have to
traverse the whole history, even though the other side may have sent us
few or no objects. Here are results for the included perf test (which
shows off more or less the maximal savings, getting one new commit and
sharing the whole history):

Allow combining of multiple filters by simply repeating the --filter
flag. Before this patch, the user had to combine them in a single flag
somewhat awkwardly (e.g. --filter=combine:FOO+BAR), including
URL-encoding the individual filters.
To make this work, in the --filter flag parsing callback, rather than
error out when we detect that the filter_options struct is already
populated, we modify it in-place to contain the added sub-filter. The
existing sub-filter becomes the lhs of the combined filter, and the
next sub-filter becomes the rhs. We also have to URL-encode the LHS and
RHS sub-filters.
We can simplify the operation if the LHS is already a combine: filter.
In that case, we just append the URL-encoded RHS sub-filter to the LHS
spec to get the new spec.

Allow easier parsing by cat-file by giving rev-list an option to print
only the OID of a non-commit object without any additional information.
This is a short-term shim; later on, rev-list should be taught how to
print the types of objects it finds in a format similar to cat-file's.
Before this commit, the output from rev-list needed to be massaged
before being piped to cat-file, like so:
git rev-list --objects HEAD | cut -f 1 -d ' ' |
git cat-file --batch-check
This was especially unexpected when dealing with root trees, as an
invisible whitespace exists at the end of the OID:
git rev-list --objects --filter=tree:1 --max-count=1 HEAD |
xargs -I% echo "AA%AA"

If someone wants to use as a filter a sparse file that is in the
repository, something like "--filter=sparse:oid=<ref>:<path>"
already works.
So 'sparse:path' is only interesting if the sparse file is not in
the repository. In this case though the current implementation has
a big security issue, as it makes it possible to ask the server to
read any file, like for example /etc/password, and to explore the
filesystem, as well as individual lines of files.
If someone is interested in using a sparse file that is not in the
repository as a filter, then at the minimum a config option, such
as "uploadpack.sparsePathFilter", should be implemented first to
restrict the directory from which the files specified by
'sparse:path' can be read.
For now though, let's just disable 'sparse:path' filters.

Using "+" to continue multiple list items is more tedious and
error-prone than wrapping the entire block with "--" block markers.
When using asciidoctor, the list items after the --date=iso list items
are incorrectly formatted when using "+" continuation. Use "--" block
markers to correctly format the block.
When using asciidoc there is no change in how the content is rendered.

Output from "diff --cc" did not show the original paths when the
merge involved renames. A new option adds the paths in the
original trees to the output.

These tabs happen to appear in columns where they don't stand out too
much, so the diff here is non-obvious. Some of these are rendered
differently by AsciiDoc and Asciidoctor (although the difference might
be invisible!), which is how I found a few of them. The remainder were
found using `git grep "[a-zA-Z.,)]$TAB[a-zA-Z]"`.

The combined diff format for merges will only list one filename, even if
rename or copy detection is active. For example, with raw format one
might see:
::100644 100644 100644 fabadb8 cc95eb0 4866510 MM describe.c
::100755 100755 100755 52b7a2d 6d1ac04 d2ac7d7 RM bar.sh
::100644 100644 100644 e07d6c5 9042e82 ee91881 RR phooey.c
This doesn't let us know what the original name of bar.sh was in the
first parent, and doesn't let us know what either of the original names
of phooey.c were in either of the parents. In contrast, for non-merge
commits, raw format does provide original filenames (and a rename score
to boot). In order to also provide original filenames for merge
commits, add a --combined-all-paths option (which must be used with
either -c or --cc, and is likely only useful with rename or copy
detection active) so that we can print tab-separated filenames when
renames are involved. This transforms the above output to:
::100644 100644 100644 fabadb8 cc95eb0 4866510 MM desc.c desc.c desc.c
::100755 100755 100755 52b7a2d 6d1ac04 d2ac7d7 RM foo.sh bar.sh bar.sh
::100644 100644 100644 e07d6c5 9042e82 ee91881 RR fooey.c fuey.c phooey.c
Further, in patch format, this changes the from/to headers so that
instead of just having one "from" header, we get one for each parent.
For example, instead of having
--- a/phooey.c
+++ b/phooey.c
we would see
--- a/fooey.c
--- a/fuey.c
+++ b/phooey.c

Display date and time information in a format similar to how people
write dates in other contexts. If the year isn't specified then, the
reader infers the date is given is in the current year.
By not displaying the redundant information, the reader concentrates
on the information that is different. The patch reports relative dates
based on information inferred from the date on the machine running the
git command at the time the command is executed.
While the format is more useful to humans by dropping inferred
information, there is nothing that makes it actually human. If the
'relative' date format wasn't already implemented then using
'relative' would have been appropriate.

Implement positive values for <depth> in the tree:<depth> filter. The
exact semantics are described in Documentation/rev-list-options.txt.
The long-term goal at the end of this is to allow a partial clone to
eagerly fetch an entire directory of files by fetching a tree and
specifying <depth>=1. This, for instance, would make a build operation
fast and convenient. It is fast because the partial clone does not need
to fetch each file individually, and convenient because the user does
not need to supply a sparse-checkout specification.
Another way of considering this feature is as a way to reduce
round-trips, since the client can get any number of levels of
directories in a single request, rather than wait for each level of tree
objects to come back, whose entries are used to construct a new request.

It appears we try to nest open blocks, but that does not work well with
Asciidoctor, which fails to indent the inner blocks. As a result, they
do not visually seem to relate (as much) to the preceding paragraph as
they should. Drop the outer blocks to fix the rendering of the inner
ones. Asciidoc renders identically before and after this patch, both
man-pages and html.
This also makes Asciidoctor stop rendering a literal '+' before "Under
--pretty=oneline ..." in the manuals for git-log and git-rev-list.

Operations on promisor objects make sense in the context of only a
small subset of the commands that internally use the revisions
machinery, but the "--exclude-promisor-objects" option were taken
and led to nonsense results by commands like "log", to which it
didn't make much sense. This has been corrected.
* md/exclude-promisor-objects-fix:
exclude-promisor-objects: declare when option is allowed
Documentation/git-log.txt: do not show --exclude-promisor-objects

Do not suggest that --exclude-promisor-objects is supported by git-log,

Teach list-objects the "tree:0" filter which allows for filtering
out all tree and blob objects (unless other objects are explicitly
specified by the user). The purpose of this patch is to allow smaller
partial clones.
The name of this filter - tree:0 - does not explicitly specify that
it also filters out all blobs, but this should not cause much confusion
because blobs are not at all useful without the trees that refer to
them.
I also considered only:commits as a name, but this is inaccurate because
it suggests that annotated tags are omitted, but actually they are
included.
The name "tree:0" allows later filtering based on depth, i.e. "tree:1"
would filter out all but the root tree and blobs. In order to avoid
confusion between 0 and capital O, the documentation was worded in a
somewhat round-about way that also hints at this future improvement to
the feature.

In preparation for implementing narrow/partial clone, the machinery

packfile specially marked as coming from trusted repository that
promises to make them available on-demand and lazily.

gc: do not repack promisor packfiles
rev-list: support termination at promisor objects
sha1_file: support lazily fetching missing objects
introduce fetch-object: fetch one promisor object
index-pack: refactor writing of .keep files
fsck: support promisor objects as CLI argument
fsck: support referenced promisor objects
fsck: support refs pointing to promisor objects
fsck: introduce partialclone extension

Teach rev-list to support termination of an object traversal at any
object from a promisor remote (whether one that the local repo also has,
or one that the local repo knows about because it has another promisor
object that references it).
This will be used subsequently in gc and in the connectivity check used
by fetch.
For efficiency, if an object is referenced by a promisor object, and is
in the local repo only as a non-promisor object, object traversal will
not stop there. This is to avoid building the list of promisor object
references.
(In list-objects.c, the case where obj is NULL in process_blob() and
process_tree() do not need to be changed because those happen only when
there is a conflict between the expected type and the existing object.
If the object doesn't exist, an object will be synthesized, which is
fine.)
