If you're going to access the contents of every object in a
packfile, it's generally much more efficient to do so in
pack order, rather than in hash order. That increases the
locality of access within the packfile, which in turn is
friendlier to the delta base cache, since the packfile puts
related deltas next to each other. By contrast, hash order
is effectively random, since the sha1 has no discernible
relationship to the content.
This patch introduces an "--unordered" option to cat-file
which iterates over packs in pack-order under the hood. You
can see the results when dumping all of the file content:
$ time ./git cat-file --batch-all-objects --buffer --batch | wc -c
6883195596
real 0m44.491s
user 0m42.902s
sys 0m5.230s
$ time ./git cat-file --unordered \
--batch-all-objects --buffer --batch | wc -c
6883195596
real 0m6.075s
user 0m4.774s
sys 0m3.548s
Same output, different order, way faster. The same speed-up
applies even if you end up accessing the object content in a
different process, like:
git cat-file --batch-all-objects --buffer --batch-check |
grep blob |
git cat-file --batch='%(objectname) %(rest)' |
wc -c
Adding "--unordered" to the first command drops the runtime
in git.git from 24s to 3.5s.
Side note: there are actually further speedups available
for doing it all in-process now. Since we are outputting
the object content during the actual pack iteration, we
know where to find the object and could skip the extra
lookup done by oid_object_info(). This patch stops short
of that optimization since the underlying API isn't ready
for us to make those sorts of direct requests.
So if --unordered is so much better, why not make it the
default? Two reasons:
1. We've promised in the documentation that --batch-all-objects
outputs in hash order. Since cat-file is plumbing,
people may be relying on that default, and we can't
change it.
2. It's actually _slower_ for some cases. We have to
compute the pack revindex to walk in pack order. And
our de-duplication step uses an oidset, rather than a
sort-and-dedup, which can end up being more expensive.
If we're just accessing the type and size of each
object, for example, like:
git cat-file --batch-all-objects --buffer --batch-check
my best-of-five warm cache timings go from 900ms to
1100ms using --unordered. Though it's possible in a
cold-cache or under memory pressure that we could do
better, since we'd have better locality within the
packfile.
And one final question: why is it "--unordered" and not
"--pack-order"? The answer is again two-fold:
1. "pack order" isn't a well-defined thing across the
whole set of objects. We're hitting loose objects, as
well as objects in multiple packs, and the only
ordering we're promising is _within_ a single pack. The
rest is apparently random.
2. The point here is optimization. So we don't want to
promise any particular ordering, but only to say that
we will choose an ordering which is likely to be
efficient for accessing the object content. That leaves
the door open for further changes in the future without
having to add another compatibility option.

It *is* a confusing thing to look at a diff of diffs. All too easy is it
to mix up whether the -/+ markers refer to the "inner" or the "outer"
diff, i.e. whether a `+` indicates that a line was added by either the
old or the new diff (or both), or whether the new diff does something
different than the old diff.
To make things easier to process for normal developers, we introduced
the dual color mode which colors the lines according to the commit diff,
i.e. lines that are added by a commit (whether old, new, or both) are
colored in green. In non-dual color mode, the lines would be colored
according to the outer diff: if the old commit added a line, it would be
colored red (because that line addition is only present in the first
commit range that was specified on the command-line, i.e. the "old"
commit, but not in the second commit range, i.e. the "new" commit).
However, this dual color mode is still not making things clear enough,
as we are looking at two levels of diffs, and we still only pick a color
according to *one* of them (the outer diff marker is colored
differently, of course, but in particular with deep indentation, it is
easy to lose track of that outer diff marker's background color).
Therefore, let's add another dimension to the mix. Still use
green/red/normal according to the commit diffs, but now also dim the
lines that were only in the old commit, and use bold face for the lines
that are only in the new commit.
That way, it is much easier not to lose track of, say, when we are
looking at a line that was added in the previous iteration of a patch
series but the new iteration adds a slightly different version: the
obsolete change will be dimmed, the current version of the patch will be
bold.
At least this developer has a much easier time reading the range-diffs
that way.

After using this command extensively for the last two months, this
developer came to the conclusion that even if the dual color mode still
leaves a lot of room for confusion about what was actually changed, the
non-dual color mode is substantially worse in that regard.
Therefore, we really want to make the dual color mode the default.

This command does not do a whole lot so far, apart from showing a usage
that is oddly similar to that of `git tbdiff`. And for a good reason:
the next commits will turn `range-branch` into a full-blown replacement
for `tbdiff`.
At this point, we ignore tbdiff's color options, as they will all be
implemented later using diff_options.
Since f318d739159 (generate-cmds.sh: export all commands to
command-list.h, 2018-05-10), every new command *requires* a man page to
build right away, so let's also add a blank man page, too.

Currently, repack does not touch promisor packfiles at all, potentially
causing the performance of repositories that have many such packfiles to
drop. Therefore, repack all promisor objects if invoked with -a or -A.
This is done by an additional invocation of pack-objects on all promisor
objects individually given, which takes care of deduplication and allows
the resulting packfiles to respect flags such as --max-pack-size.

The colorization is controlled with the config setting "color.remote".
Supported keywords are "error", "warning", "hint" and "success". They
are highlighted if they appear at the start of the line, which is
common in error messages, eg.
ERROR: commit is missing Change-Id
The Git push process itself prints lots of non-actionable messages
(eg. bandwidth statistics, object counters for different phases of the
process). This obscures actionable error messages that servers may
send back. Highlighting keywords in the sideband draws more attention
to those messages.
The background for this change is that Gerrit does server-side
processing to create or update code reviews, and actionable error
messages (eg. missing Change-Id) must be communicated back to the user
during the push. User research has shown that new users have trouble
seeing these messages.
The highlighting is done on the client rather than server side, so
servers don't have to grow capabilities to understand terminal escape
codes and terminal state. It also consistent with the current state
where Git is control of the local display (eg. prefixing messages with
"remote: ").
The highlighting can be configured using color.remote.<KEYWORD>
configuration settings. Since the keys are matched case insensitively,
we match the keywords case insensitively too.
Finally, this solution is backwards compatible: many servers already
prefix their messages with "error", and they will benefit from this
change without requiring a server update. By contrast, a server-side
solution would likely require plumbing the TERM variable through the
git protocol, so it would require changes to both server and client.

The following phrase could be interpreted multiple ways:
"To pretend you have a file with mode and sha1 at path"
In particular, I can think of two:
1. Pretend we have some new file, which happens to have a given mode
and sha1
2. Pretend one of the files we are already tracking has a different
mode and sha1 than what it really does
I think people could easily assume either case while reading, but the
example command provided doesn't actually handle the first case, which
caused some minor frustration to at least one user. Modify the example
command so that it correctly handles both cases, and re-order the
wording in a way that makes it more likely folks will assume the first
interpretation. I believe the new example shouldn't pose any obstacles
to those wanting the second interpretation (at worst, they pass an
unnecessary extra flag).

The bug was noticed when writing the previous patch; a fix for this bug
is not easy though: If we choose to ignore the case of the subsection
(and revert most of the code of the previous patch, just keeping
s/strncasecmp/strcmp/), then we'd introduce new sections using the
new syntax, such that
--------
[section.subsection]
key = value1
--------
git config section.Subsection.key value2
would result in
--------
[section.subsection]
key = value1
[section.Subsection]
key = value2
--------
which is even more confusing. A proper fix would replace the first
occurrence of 'key'. As the syntax is deprecated, let's prefer to not
spend time on fixing the behavior and just document it instead.

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.

After making a change to the documentation, it's easy to
forget to check the rendered version to make sure it was
formatted as you intended. And simply doing a diff between
the two built versions is less trivial than you might hope:
- diffing the roff or html output isn't particularly
readable; what we really care about is what the end user
will see
- you have to tweak a few build variables to avoid
spurious differences (e.g., version numbers, build
times)
Let's provide a script that builds and installs the manpages
for two commits, renders the results using "man", and diffs
the result. Since this is time-consuming, we'll also do our
best to avoid repeated work, keeping intermediate results
between runs.
Some of this could probably be made a little less ugly if we
built support into Documentation/Makefile. But by relying
only on "make install-man" working, this script should work
for generating a diff between any two versions, whether they
include this script or not.
