Storing the worktrees list in a static variable meant that
find_shared_symref() had to rebuild the list on each call (which is
inefficient when the call site is in a loop), and also that each call
invalidated the pointer returned by the previous call (which is
confusing).
Instead, make it the caller’s responsibility to pass in the worktrees
list and manage its lifetime.

The for-each-ref family of commands invoke parsers immediately when
it sees each --sort=<atom> option, and die before even seeing the
other options on the command line when the <atom> is unrecognised.
Instead, accumulate them in a string list, and have them parsed into
a ref_sorting structure after the command line parsing is done. As
a consequence, "git branch --sort=bogus -h" used to fail to give the
brief help, which arguably may have been a feature, now does so,
which is more consistent with how other options work.
The patch is smaller than the actual extent of the "damage" to the
codebase, thanks to the fact that the original code consistently
used OPT_REF_SORT() macro to handle command line options. We only
needed to replace the variable used for the list, and implementation
of the callback function used in the macro.
The old rule was for the users of the API to:
- Declare ref_sorting and ref_sorting_tail variables;
- OPT_REF_SORT() macro will instantiate ref_sorting instance (which
may barf and die) and append it to the tail;
- Append to the tail each ref_sorting read from the configuration
by parsing in the config callback (which may barf and die);
- See if ref_sorting is null and use ref_sorting_default() instead.
Now the rule is not all that different but is simpler:
- Declare ref_sorting_options string list.
- OPT_REF_SORT() macro will append it to the string list;
- Append to the string list the sort key read from the
configuration;
- call ref_sorting_options() to turn the string list to ref_sorting
structure (which also deals with the default value).
As side effects, this change also cleans up a few issues:
- 95be717c (parse_opt_ref_sorting: always use with NONEG flag,
2019-03-20) muses that "git for-each-ref --no-sort" should simply
clear the sort keys accumulated so far; it now does.
- The implementation detail of "struct ref_sorting" and the helper
function parse_ref_sorting() can now be private to the ref-filter
API implementation.
- If you set branch.sort to a bogus value, the any "git branch"
invocation, not only the listing mode, would abort with the
original code; now it doesn't

Use a ref_sorting_release() in branch.c to free the memory from the
ref_sorting_options(). This plugs the final in-tree memory leak of
that API.
In the preceding commit the "sorting" variable was left in the
cmd_branch() scope, even though that wasn't needed anymore. Move it to
the "else if (list)" scope instead. We can also move the "struct
string_list" only used for that branch to be declared in that block
That "struct ref_sorting" does not need to be "static" (and isn't
re-used). The "ref_sorting_options()" will return a valid one, we
don't need to make it "static" to have it zero'd out. That it was
static was another artifact of the pre-image of the preceding commit.

Of the ref-filter callers, for-each-ref and git-branch both set the
INCLUDE_BROKEN flag (but git-tag does not, which is a weird
inconsistency). But now that GIT_REF_PARANOIA is on by default, that
produces almost the same outcome for all three.
The one exception is that GIT_REF_PARANOIA will omit dangling symrefs.
That's a better behavior for these tools, as they would never include
such a symref in the main output anyway (they can't, as it doesn't point
to an object). Instead they issue a warning to stderr. But that warning
is somewhat useless; a dangling symref is a perfectly reasonable thing
to have in your repository, and is not a sign of corruption. It's much
friendlier to just quietly ignore it.
And in terms of robustness, the warning gains us little. It does not
impact the exit code of either tool. So while the warning _might_ clue
in a user that they have an unexpected broken symref, it would not help
any kind of scripted use.
This patch converts for-each-ref and git-branch to stop using the
INCLUDE_BROKEN flag. That gives them more reasonable behavior, and
harmonizes them with git-tag.
We have to change one test to adapt to the situation. t1430 tries to
trigger all of the REF_ISBROKEN behaviors from the underlying ref code.
It uses for-each-ref to do so (because there isn't any other mechanism).
That will no longer issue a warning about the symref which points to an
invalid name, as it's considered dangling (and we can instead be sure
that it's _not_ mentioned on stderr). Note that we do still complain
about the illegally named "broken..symref"; its problem is not that it's
dangling, but the name of the symref itself is illegal.

git branch only allows deleting branches that point to valid commits.
Skip that check if --force is given, as the caller is indicating with
it that they know what they are doing and accept the consequences.
This allows deleting dangling branches, which previously had to be
reset to a valid start-point using --force first.

When we use `git for-each-ref`, every ref will allocate
its own output strbuf and error strbuf. But we can reuse
the final strbuf for each step ref's output. The error
buffer will also be reused, despite the fact that the git
will exit when `format_ref_array_item()` return a non-zero
value and output the contents of the error buffer.
The performance for `git for-each-ref` on the Git repository
itself with performance testing tool `hyperfine` changes from
23.7 ms ± 0.9 ms to 22.2 ms ± 1.0 ms. Optimization is relatively
minor.
At the same time, we apply this optimization to `git tag -l`
and `git branch -l`.
This approach is similar to the one used by 79ed0a5
(cat-file: use a single strbuf for all output, 2018-08-14)
to speed up the cat-file builtin.

When removing many branches and tags, the code used to do so one
ref at a time. There is another API it can use to delete multiple
refs, and it makes quite a lot of performance difference when the
refs are packed.
* ph/use-delete-refs:
use delete_refs when deleting tags or branches
|
|
'git tag -d' accepts one or more tag refs to delete, but each deletion
is done by calling `delete_ref` on each argv. This is very slow when
removing from packed refs. Use delete_refs instead so all the removals
can be done inside a single transaction with a single update.
Do the same for 'git branch -d'.
Since delete_refs performs all the packed-refs delete operations
inside a single transaction, if any of the deletes fail then all
them will be skipped. In practice, none of them should fail since
we verify the hash of each one before calling delete_refs, but some
network error or odd permissions problem could have different results
after this change.
Also, since the file-backed deletions are not performed in the same
transaction, those could succeed even when the packed-refs transaction
fails.
After deleting branches, remove the branch config only if the branch
ref was removed and was not subsequently added back in.
A manual test deleting 24,000 tags took about 30 minutes using
delete_ref. It takes about 5 seconds using delete_refs.

Change the ref-filter sorting of detached HEAD to check the
FILTER_REFS_DETACHED_HEAD flag, instead of relying on the ref
description filled-in by get_head_description() to start with "(",
which in turn we expect to ASCII-sort before any other reference.
For context, we'd like the detached line to appear first at the start
of "git branch -l", e.g.:
$ git branch -l
* (HEAD detached at <hash>)
master
This doesn't change that, but improves on a fix made in
28438e84e04 (ref-filter: sort detached HEAD lines firstly, 2019-06-18)
and gives the Chinese translation the ability to use its preferred
punctuation marks again.
In Chinese the fullwidth versions of punctuation like "()" are
typically written as (U+FF08 fullwidth left parenthesis), (U+FF09
fullwidth right parenthesis) instead[1]. This form is used in both
po/zh_{CN,TW}.po in most cases where "()" is translated in a string.
Aside from that improvement to the Chinese translation, it also just
makes for cleaner code that we mark any special cases in the ref_array
we're sorting with flags and make the sort function aware of them,
instead of piggy-backing on the general-case of strcmp() doing the
right thing.
As seen in the amended tests this made reverse sorting a bit more
consistent. Before this we'd sometimes sort this message in the
middle, now it's consistently at the beginning or end, depending on
whether we're doing a normal or reverse sort. Having it at the end
doesn't make much sense either, but at least it behaves consistently
now. A follow-up commit will make this behavior under reverse sorting
even better.
I'm removing the "TRANSLATORS" comments that were in the old code
while I'm at it. Those were added in d4919bb288e (ref-filter: move
get_head_description() from branch.c, 2017-01-10). I think it's
obvious from context, string and translation memory in typical
translation tools that these are the same or similar string.

Change the reverse/ignore_case/version sort flags in the ref_sorting
struct into a bitfield. Having three of them was already a bit
unwieldy, but it would be even more so if another flag needed a
function like ref_sorting_icase_all() introduced in
76f9e569adb (ref-filter: apply --ignore-case to all sorting keys,
2020-05-03).
A follow-up change will introduce such a flag, so let's move this over
to a bitfield. Instead of using the usual '#define' pattern I'm using
the "enum" pattern from builtin/rebase.c's b4c8eb024af (builtin
rebase: support --quiet, 2018-09-04).
Perhaps there's a more idiomatic way of doing the "for each in list
amend mask" pattern than this "mask/on" variable combo. This function
doesn't allow us to e.g. do any arbitrary changes to the bitfield for
multiple flags, but I think in this case that's fine. The common case
is that we're calling this with a list of one.

We will extend the flexibility of the config API. Before doing so, let's
take an existing 'int multi_replace' parameter and replace it with a new
'unsigned flags' parameter that can take multiple options as a bit field.
Update all callers that specified multi_replace to now specify the
CONFIG_FLAGS_MULTI_REPLACE flag. To add more clarity, extend the
documentation of git_config_set_multivar_in_file() including a clear
labeling of its arguments. Other config API methods in config.h require
only a change of the final parameter from 'int' to 'unsigned'.

"git branch" and other "for-each-ref" variants accepted multiple
--sort=<key> options in the increasing order of precedence, but it
had a few breakages around "--ignore-case" handling, and tie-breaking
with the refname, which have been fixed.
* jk/for-each-ref-multi-key-sort-fix:
ref-filter: apply fallback refname sort only after all user sorts
ref-filter: apply --ignore-case to all sorting keys
|
|
All of the ref-filter users (for-each-ref, branch, and tag) take an
--ignore-case option which makes filtering and sorting case-insensitive.
However, this option was applied only to the first element of the
ref_sorting list. So:
git for-each-ref --ignore-case --sort=refname
would do what you expect, but:
git for-each-ref --ignore-case --sort=refname --sort=taggername
would sort the primary key (taggername) case-insensitively, but sort the
refname case-sensitively. We have two options here:
- teach callers to set ignore_case on the whole list
- replace the ref_sorting list with a struct that contains both the
list of sorting keys, as well as options that apply to _all_
keys
I went with the first one here, as it gives more flexibility if we later
want to let the users set the flag per-key (presumably through some
special syntax when defining the key; for now it's all or nothing
through --ignore-case).
The new test covers this by sorting on both tagger and subject
case-insensitively, which should compare "a" and "A" identically, but
still sort them before "b" and "B". We'll break ties by sorting on the
refname to give ourselves a stable output (this is actually supposed to
be done automatically, but there's another bug which will be fixed in
the next commit).

In the codebase, there are many options which use OPTION_CALLBACK in a
plain ol' struct definition. However, we have the OPT_CALLBACK and
OPT_CALLBACK_F macros which are meant to abstract these plain struct
definitions away. These macros are useful as they semantically signal to
developers that these are just normal callback option with nothing fancy
happening.
Replace plain struct definitions of OPTION_CALLBACK with OPT_CALLBACK or
OPT_CALLBACK_F where applicable. The heavy lifting was done using the
following (disgusting) shell script:
#!/bin/sh
do_replacement () {
tr '\n' '\r' |
sed -e 's/{\s*OPTION_CALLBACK,\s*\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\s*0,\(\s*[^[:space:]}]*\)\s*}/OPT_CALLBACK(\1,\2,\3,\4,\5,\6)/g' |
sed -e 's/{\s*OPTION_CALLBACK,\s*\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\(\s*[^[:space:]}]*\)\s*}/OPT_CALLBACK_F(\1,\2,\3,\4,\5,\6,\7)/g' |
tr '\r' '\n'
}
for f in $(git ls-files \*.c)
do
do_replacement <"$f" >"$f.tmp"
mv "$f.tmp" "$f"
done
The result was manually inspected and then reformatted to match the
style of the surrounding code. Finally, using
`git grep OPTION_CALLBACK \*.c`, leftover results which were not handled
by the script were manually transformed.

The "--sort" parameter of for-each-ref, etc, does not handle negation,
and instead returns an error to the parse-options code. But neither
piece of code prints anything for the user, which may leave them
confused:
$ git for-each-ref --no-sort
$ echo $?

As the comment in the callback function notes, this probably should
clear the list, which would make it consistent with other list-like
options (i.e., anything that uses OPT_STRING_LIST currently).
Unfortunately that's a bit tricky due to the way the ref-filter code
works. But in the meantime, let's at least make the error a little less
confusing:
- switch to using PARSE_OPT_NONEG in the option definition, which will
cause the options code to produce a useful message
- since this was cut-and-pasted to four different spots, let's define
a single OPT_REF_SORT() macro that we can use everywhere
- the callback can use BUG_ON_OPT_NEG() to make sure the correct flags
are used (incidentally, this also satisfies -Wunused-parameters,
since we're now looking at "unset")
- expand the comment into a NEEDSWORK to make it clear that the
direction is right, but the details need to be worked out

Continuing with the idea to programatically enumerate various
pieces of data required for command line completion, teach the
codebase to report the list of configuration variables
subcommands care about to help complete them.
* nd/complete-config-vars:
completion: complete general config vars in two steps
log-tree: allow to customize 'grafted' color
completion: support case-insensitive config vars
completion: keep other config var completion in camelCase
completion: drop the hard coded list of config vars
am: move advice.amWorkDir parsing back to advice.c
advice: keep config name in camelCase in advice_config[]
fsck: produce camelCase config key names
help: add --config to list all available config
fsck: factor out msg_id_info[] lazy initialization code
grep: keep all colors in an array
Add and use generic name->id mapping code for color slot parsing

The other "mode" options of git-branch have short-option
aliases that are easy to type (e.g., "-d" and "-m"). Let's
give "--list" the same treatment.
This also makes it consistent with the similar "git tag -l"
option.
We didn't do this originally because "--create-reflog" was
squatting on the "-l" option. Now that we've deprecated that
use for long enough, we can make the switch.

The "-l" option is short for "--create-reflog". This has
caused much confusion over the years. Most people expect it
to work as "--list", because that would match the other
"mode" options like -d/--delete and -m/--move, as well as
the similar -l/--list option of git-tag.
Adding to the confusion, using "-l" _appears_ to work as
"--list" in some cases:
$ git branch -l
* master
because the branch command defaults to listing (so even
trying to specify --list in the command above is redundant).
But that may bite the user later when they add a pattern,
like:
$ git branch -l foo
which does not return an empty list, but in fact creates a
new branch (with a reflog, naturally) called "foo".
It's also probably quite uncommon for people to actually use
"-l" to create a reflog. Since 0bee591869 (Enable reflogs by
default in any repository with a working directory.,
2006-12-14), this is the default in non-bare repositories.
So it's rather unfortunate that the feature squats on the
short-and-sweet "-l" (which was only added in 3a4b3f269c
(Create/delete branch ref logs., 2006-05-19), meaning there
were only 7 months where it was actually useful).
Let's deprecate "-l" in hopes of eventually re-purposing it
to "--list".
Note that we issue the warning only when we're not in list
mode. This means that people for whom it works as a happy
accident, namely:
$ git branch -l
master
won't see the warning at all. And when we eventually switch
to it meaning "--list", that will just continue to work.
We do the issue the warning for these important cases:
- when we are actually creating a branch, in case the user
really did mean it as "--create-reflog"
- when we are in some _other_ mode, like deletion. There
the "-l" is a noop for now, but it will eventually
conflict with any other mode request, and the user
should be told that this is changing.
