Up until recently, object IDs did not have an algorithm member, only a
hash. Consequently, it was possible to share one null (all-zeros)
object ID among all hash algorithms. Now that we're going to be
handling objects from multiple hash algorithms, it's important to make
sure that all object IDs have a correct algorithm field.
Introduce a per-algorithm null OID, and add it to struct hash_algo.
Introduce a wrapper function as well, and use it everywhere we used to
use the null_oid constant.

Simplify the signature of read_tree_recursive() to omit the "base",
"baselen" and "stage" arguments. No callers of it use these parameters
for anything anymore.
The last function to call read_tree_recursive() with a non-"" path was
read_tree_recursive() itself, but that was changed in
ffd31f661d5 (Reimplement read_tree_recursive() using
tree_entry_interesting(), 2011-03-25).
The last user of the "stage" parameter went away in the last commit,
and even that use was mere boilerplate.
So let's remove those and rename the read_tree_recursive() function to
just read_tree(). We had another read_tree() function that I've
refactored away in preceding commits, since all in-tree users read
trees recursively with a callback we can change the name to signify
that this is the norm.

The "stage" variable being passed around in the archive code has only
ever been an elaborate way to hardcode the value "0".
This code was added in its original form in e4fbbfe9ecc (Add
git-zip-tree, 2006-08-26), at which point a hardcoded "0" would be
passed down through read_tree_recursive() to write_zip_entry().
It was then diligently added to the "struct directory" in
ed22b4173bd (archive: support filtering paths with glob, 2014-09-21),
but we were still not doing anything except passing it around as-is.
Let's stop doing that in the code internal to archive.c, we'll still
feed "0" to read_tree_recursive() itself, but won't use it. That we're
providing it at all to read_tree_recursive() will be changed in a
follow-up commit.

Every %(describe) placeholder in $Format:...$ strings in files with the
attribute export-subst is expanded by calling git describe. This can
potentially result in a lot of such calls per archive. That's OK for
local repositories under control of the user of git archive, but could
be a problem for hosted repositories.
Expand only a single %(describe) placeholder per archive for now to
avoid denial-of-service attacks. We can make this limit configurable
later if needed, but let's start out simple.

Compression programs like zip, gzip, bzip2 and xz allow to adjust the
trade-off between CPU cost and size gain with numerical options from -1
for fast compression and -9 for high compression ratio. zip also
accepts -0 for storing files verbatim. git archive directly support
these single-digit compression levels for ZIP output and passes them to
filters like gzip.
Zstandard additionally supports compression level options -10 to -19, or
up to -22 with --ultra. This *seems* to work with git archive in most
cases, e.g. it will produce an archive with -19 without complaining, but
since it only supports single-digit compression level options this is
the same as -1 -9 and thus -9.
Allow git archive to accept multi-digit compression levels to support
the full range supported by zstd. Explicitly reject them for the ZIP
format, as otherwise deflateInit2() would just fail with a somewhat
cryptic "stream consistency error".

When a user checks out the upstream branch of HEAD, the upstream branch
not being a local branch, and then runs "git status", like this:
git clone $URL client
cd client
git checkout @{u}
git status
no status is printed, but instead an error message:
fatal: HEAD does not point to a branch
(This error message when running "git branch" persists even after
checking out other things - it only stops after checking out a branch.)
This is because "git status" reads the reflog when determining the "HEAD
detached" message, and thus attempts to DWIM "@{u}", but that doesn't
work because HEAD no longer points to a branch.
Therefore, when calculating the status of a worktree, tolerate dangling
marks. This is done by adding an additional parameter to
dwim_ref() and repo_dwim_ref().

Now that we have the codebase wired up to pass any additional metadata
to filters, let's collect the additional metadata that we'd like to
pass.
The two main places we pass this metadata are checkouts and archives.
In these two situations, reading HEAD isn't a valid option, since HEAD
isn't updated for checkouts until after the working tree is written and
archives can accept an arbitrary tree. In other situations, HEAD will
usually reflect the refname of the branch in current use.
We pass a smaller amount of data in other cases, such as git cat-file,
where we can really only logically know about the blob.
This commit updates only the parts of the checkout code where we don't
use unpack_trees. That function and callers of it will be handled in a
future commit.
In the archive code, we leak a small amount of memory, since nothing we
pass in the archiver argument structure is freed.

There are a variety of situations where a filter process can make use of
some additional metadata. For example, some people find the ident
filter too limiting and would like to include the commit or the branch
in their smudged files. This information isn't available during
checkout as HEAD hasn't been updated at that point, and it wouldn't be
available in archives either.
Let's add a way to pass this metadata down to the filter. We pass the
blob we're operating on, the treeish (preferring the commit over the
tree if one exists), and the ref we're operating on. Note that we won't
pass this information in all cases, such as when renormalizing or when
we're performing diffs, since it doesn't make sense in those cases.
The data we currently get from the filter process looks like the
following:
command=smudge
pathname=git.c
0000
With this change, we'll get data more like this:
command=smudge
pathname=git.c
refname=refs/tags/v2.25.1
treeish=c522f061d551c9bb8684a7c3859b2ece4499b56b
blob=7be7ad34bd053884ec48923706e70c81719a8660
0000
There are a couple things to note about this approach. For operations
like checkout, treeish will always be a commit, since we cannot check
out individual trees, but for other operations, like archive, we can end
up operating on only a particular tree, so we'll provide only a tree as
the treeish. Similar comments apply for refname, since there are a
variety of cases in which we won't have a ref.
This commit wires up the code to print this information, but doesn't
pass any of it at this point. In a future commit, we'll have various
code paths pass the actual useful data down.

"git merge-recursive" backend recently learned a new heuristics to
infer file movement based on how other files in the same directory
moved. As this is inherently less robust heuristics than the one
based on the content similarity of the file itself (rather than
based on what its neighbours are doing), it sometimes gives an
outcome unexpected by the end users. This has been toned down to
leave the renamed paths in higher/conflicted stages in the index so
that the user can examine and confirm the result.

struct diff_filespec defines mode to be an 'unsigned short'. Several
other places in the API which we'd like to interact with using a
diff_filespec used a plain unsigned (or unsigned int). This caused
problems when taking addresses, so switch to unsigned short.

Initialize archivers as soon as possible when running git-archive.
Various non-obvious behavior depends on having the archivers
initialized, such as determining the desired archival format from the
provided filename.
Since 08716b3c11 ("archive: refactor file extension format-guessing",
2011-06-21), archive_format_from_filename() has used the registered
archivers to match filenames (provided via --output) to archival
formats. However, when git-archive is executed with --remote, format
detection happens before the archivers have been registered. This causes
archives from remotes to always be generated as TAR files, regardless of
the actual filename (unless an explicit --format is provided).
This patch fixes that behavior; archival format is determined properly
from the output filename, even when --remote is used.

Since attr checking API now take the index, there's no need to set an
index in advance with this call. Most call sites are straightforward
because they either pass the_index or NULL (which defaults back to
the_index previously). There's only one suspicious call site in
unpack-trees.c where it sets a different index.
This code in unpack-trees is about to check out entries from the
new/temporary index after merging is done in it. The attributes will
be used by entry.c code to do crlf conversion if needed. entry.c now
respects struct checkout's istate field, and this field is correctly
set in unpack-trees.c, there should be no regression from this change.

Make the attr API take an index_state instead of assuming the_index in
attr code. All call sites are converted blindly to keep the patch
simple and retain current behavior. Individual call sites may receive
further updates to use the right index instead of the_index.
There is one ugly temporary workaround added in attr.c that needs some
more explanation.
Commit c24f3abace (apply: file commited with CRLF should roundtrip
diff and apply - 2017-08-19) forces one convert_to_git() call to NOT
read the index at all. But what do you know, we read it anyway by
falling back to the_index. When "istate" from convert_to_git is now
propagated down to read_attr_from_array() we will hit segfault
somewhere inside read_blob_data_from_index.
The right way of dealing with this is to kill "use_index" variable and
only follow "istate" but at this stage we are not ready for that:
while most git_attr_set_direction() calls just passes the_index to be
assigned to use_index, unpack-trees passes a different one which is
used by entry.c code, which has no way to know what index to use if we
delete use_index. So this has to be done later.

In particular, this moves:

- write_object_file
As a result, most of the codebase needs to #include object-store.h.
In this patch the #include is only added to files that would fail to

"git archive", especially when used with pathspec, stored an empty
directory in its output, even though Git itself never does so.
This has been fixed.
* rs/archive-excluded-directory:
archive: don't add empty directories to archives
|
|
While git doesn't track empty directories, git archive can be tricked
into putting some into archives. One way is to construct an empty tree
object, as t5004 does. While that is supported by the object database,
it can't be represented in the index and thus it's unlikely to occur in
the wild.
Another way is using the literal name of a directory in an exclude
pathspec -- its contents are are excluded, but the directory stub is
included. That's inconsistent: exclude pathspecs containing wildcards
don't leave empty directories in the archive.
Yet another way is have a few levels of nested subdirectories (e.g.
d1/d2/d3/file1) and ignoring the entries at the leaves (e.g. file1).
The directories with the ignored content are ignored as well (e.g. d3),
but their empty parents are included (e.g. d2).
As empty directories are not supported by git, they should also not be
written into archives. If an empty directory is really needed then it
can be tracked and archived by placing an empty .gitignore file in it.
There already is a mechanism in place for suppressing empty directories.
When read_tree_recursive() encounters a directory excluded by a pathspec
then it enters it anyway because it might contain included entries. It
calls the callback function before it is able to decide if the directory
is actually needed. For that reason git archive adds directories to a
queue and writes entries for them only when it encounters the first
child item -- but currently only if pathspecs with wildcards are used.
Queue *all* directories, no matter if there even are pathspecs present.
This prevents git archive from writing entries for empty directories in
all cases.
