The sample code calls `get_revision()' followed by `graph_update()',
but the documentation and source code indicate that `get_revision()'
already calls `graph_update()' for you.

The file processed by `git commit-graph` is referred to as the
"commit-graph file", also with a dash. We have a few references to the
"commit graph file", though, without the dash. These occur in
git-commit-graph.txt as well as in Doc/technical/commit-graph.txt. Fix
them.
Do not change the references to the "commit graph" (without "... file")
as a data structure.

4af3220 ("rerere: teach rerere to handle nested conflicts",
2018-08-05) introduced slightly better behaviour if the user commits
conflict markers and then gets another conflict in 'git rerere'.
However this is just a heuristic to punt on such conflicts better, and
doesn't deal with any unmatched conflict markers. Make that clearer
in the documentation.

As it exists right now, the commit-graph feature may provide
inconsistent results when combined with commit grafts, replace objects,
and shallow clones. Update the design document to discuss why these
interactions are difficult to reconcile and how we will avoid errors by
preventing updates to and reads from the commit-graph file when these
other features exist.

From a security perspective, it seems that SHA-256, BLAKE2, SHA3-256,
K12, and so on are all believed to have similar security properties.
All are good options from a security point of view.
SHA-256 has a number of advantages:
* It has been around for a while, is widely used, and is supported by
just about every single crypto library (OpenSSL, mbedTLS, CryptoNG,
SecureTransport, etc).
* When you compare against SHA1DC, most vectorized SHA-256
implementations are indeed faster, even without acceleration.
* If we're doing signatures with OpenPGP (or even, I suppose, CMS),
we're going to be using SHA-2, so it doesn't make sense to have our
security depend on two separate algorithms when either one of them
alone could break the security when we could just depend on one.
So SHA-256 it is. Update the hash-function-transition design doc to
say so.
After this patch, there are no remaining instances of the string
"NewHash", except for an unrelated use from 2008 as a variable name in
t/t9700/test.pl.

Currently rerere can't handle nested conflicts and will error out when
it encounters such conflicts. Do that by recursively calling the
'handle_conflict' function to normalize the conflict.
Note that a conflict like this would only be produced if a user
commits a file with conflict markers, and gets a conflict including
that in a susbsequent operation.
The conflict ID calculation here deserves some explanation:
As we are using the same handle_conflict function, the nested conflict
is normalized the same way as for non-nested conflicts, which means
the ancestor in the diff3 case is stripped out, and the parts of the
conflict are ordered alphabetically.
The conflict ID is however is only calculated in the top level
handle_conflict call, so it will include the markers that 'rerere'
adds to the output. e.g. say there's the following conflict:
<<<<<<< HEAD
1
=======
<<<<<<< HEAD
3
=======
2
>>>>>>> branch-2
>>>>>>> branch-3~
it would be recorde as follows in the preimage:
<<<<<<<
1
=======
<<<<<<<
2
=======
3
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>
and the conflict ID would be calculated as
sha1(1<NUL><<<<<<<
2
=======
3
>>>>>>><NUL>)
Stripping out vs. leaving the conflict markers in place in the inner
conflict should have no practical impact, but it simplifies the
implementation.

The final pair of chunks for the multi-pack-index file stores the object
offsets. We default to using 32-bit offsets as in the pack-index version
1 format, but if there exists an offset larger than 32-bits, we use a
trick similar to the pack-index version 2 format by storing all offsets
at least 2^31 in a 64-bit table; we use the 32-bit table to point into
that 64-bit table as necessary.
We only store these 64-bit offsets if necessary, so create a test that
manipulates a version 2 pack-index to fake a large offset. This allows
us to test that the large offset table is created, but the data does not
match the actual packfile offsets. The multi-pack-index offset does match
the (corrupted) pack-index offset, so a future feature will compare these
offsets during a 'verify' step.

The multi-pack-index needs to track which packfiles it indexes. Store
these in our first required chunk. Since filenames are not well
structured, add padding to keep good alignment in later chunks.
Modify the 'git multi-pack-index read' subcommand to output the
existence of the pack-file name chunk. Modify t5319-multi-pack-index.sh
to reflect this new output and the new expected number of chunks.
Defense in depth: A pattern we are using in the multi-pack-index feature
is to verify the data as we write it. We want to ensure we never write
invalid data to the multi-pack-index. There are many checks that verify
that the values we are writing fit the format definitions. This mainly
helps developers while working on the feature, but it can also identify
issues that only appear when dealing with very large data sets. These
large sets are hard to encode into test cases.

The multi-pack-index feature generalizes the existing pack-index
feature by indexing objects across multiple pack-files.
Describe the basic file format, using a 12-byte header followed by
a lookup table for a list of "chunks" which will be described later.
The file ends with a footer containing a checksum using the hash
algorithm.
The header allows later versions to create breaking changes by
advancing the version number. We can also change the hash algorithm
using a different version value.
We will add the individual chunk format information as we introduce
the code that writes that information.

A filter line in a request to upload-pack filters out objects regardless
of whether they are directly referenced by a "want" line or not. This
means that cloning with "--filter=blob:none" (or another filter that
excludes blobs) from a repository with at least one ref pointing to a
blob (for example, the Git repository itself) results in output like the
following:
error: missing object referenced by 'refs/tags/junio-gpg-pub'
and if that particular blob is not referenced by a fetched tree, the
resulting clone fails fsck because there is no object from the remote to
vouch that the missing object is a promisor object.
Update both the protocol and the upload-pack implementation to include
all explicitly specified "want" objects in the packfile regardless of
the filter specification.

The commit-graph feature shipped in Git 2.18 has some inconsistencies in
the constants used by the implementation and specified by the format
document.
The commit data chunk uses the key "CDAT" in the file format, but was
previously documented to say "CGET".
The commit data chunk stores commit parents using two 32-bit fields that
typically store the integer position of the parent in the list of commit
ids within the commit-graph file. When a parent does not exist, we had
documented the value 0xffffffff, but implemented the value 0x70000000.
This swap is easy to correct in the documentation, but unfortunately
reduces the number of commits that we can store in the commit-graph.
Update that estimate, too.

Currently, while performing packfile negotiation, clients are only
allowed to specify their desired objects using object ids. This causes
a vulnerability to failure when an object turns non-existent during
negotiation, which may happen if, for example, the desired repository is
provided by multiple Git servers in a load-balancing arrangement and
there exists replication delay.
In order to eliminate this vulnerability, implement the ref-in-want
feature for the 'fetch' command in protocol version 2. This feature
enables the 'fetch' command to support requests in the form of ref names
through a new "want-ref <ref>" parameter. At the conclusion of
negotiation, the server will send a list of all of the wanted references
(as provided by "want-ref" lines) in addition to the generated packfile.
