In a recent update in 2.18 era, "git pack-objects" started
producing a larger than necessary packfiles by missing
opportunities to use large deltas.

The parse-options machinery learned to refrain from enclosing
placeholder string inside a "<bra" and "ket>" pair automatically

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.

Parseopt wraps argument help strings in a pair of angular brackets by
default, to tell users that they need to replace it with an actual
value. This is useful in most cases, because most option arguments
are indeed single values of a certain type. The option
PARSE_OPT_LITERAL_ARGHELP needs to be used in option definitions with
arguments that have multiple parts or are literal strings.
Stop adding these angular brackets if special characters are present,
as they indicate that we don't deal with a simple placeholder. This
simplifies the code a bit and makes defining special options slightly
easier.
Remove the flag PARSE_OPT_LITERAL_ARGHELP in the cases where the new
and more cautious handling suffices.

Many messages will be marked for translation in the following
commits. This commit updates some of them to be more consistent and
reduce diff noise in those commits. Changes are
- keep the first letter of die(), error() and warning() in lowercase
- no full stop in die(), error() or warning() if it's single sentence
messages
- indentation
- some messages are turned to BUG(), or prefixed with "BUG:" and will
not be marked for i18n
- some messages are improved to give more information
- some messages are broken down by sentence to be i18n friendly
(on the same token, combine multiple warning() into one big string)
- the trailing \n is converted to printf_ln if possible, or deleted
if not redundant
- errno_errno() is used instead of explicit strerror()

Let's start with some background about oe_delta_size() and
oe_set_delta_size(). If you already know, skip the next paragraph.
These two are added in 0aca34e826 (pack-objects: shrink delta_size
field in struct object_entry - 2018-04-14) to help reduce 'struct
object_entry' size. The delta size field in this struct is reduced to
only contain max 1MB. So if any new delta is produced and larger than
1MB, it's dropped because we can't really save such a large size
anywhere. Fallback is provided in case existing packfiles already have
large deltas, then we can retrieve it from the pack.
While this should help small machines repacking large repos without
large deltas (i.e. less memory pressure), dropping large deltas during
the delta selection process could end up with worse pack files. And if
existing packfiles already have >1MB delta and pack-objects is
instructed to not reuse deltas, all of them will be dropped on the
floor, and the resulting pack would be definitely bigger.
There is also a regression in terms of CPU/IO if we have large on-disk
deltas because fallback code needs to parse the pack every time the
delta size is needed and just access to the mmap'd pack data is enough
for extra page faults when memory is under pressure.
Both of these issues were reported on the mailing list. Here's some
numbers for comparison.
Version Pack (MB) MaxRSS(kB) Time (s)
------- --------- ---------- --------
2.17.0 5498 43513628 2494.85
2.18.0 10531 40449596 4168.94
This patch provides a better fallback that is
- cheaper in terms of cpu and io because we won't have to read
existing pack files as much
- better in terms of pack size because the pack heuristics is back to
2.17.0 time, we do not drop large deltas at all
If we encounter any delta (on-disk or created during try_delta phase)
that is larger than the 1MB limit, we stop using delta_size_ field for
this because it can't contain such size anyway. A new array of delta
size is dynamically allocated and can hold all the deltas that 2.17.0
can. This array only contains delta sizes that delta_size_ can't
contain.
With this, we do not have to drop deltas in try_delta() anymore. Of
course the downside is we use slightly more memory, even compared to
2.17.0. But since this is considered an uncommon case, a bit more
memory consumption should not be a problem.
Delta size limit is also raised from 1MB to 16MB to better cover
common case and avoid that extra memory consumption (99.999% deltas in
this reported repo are under 12MB; Jeff noted binary artifacts topped
out at about 3MB in some other private repos). Other fields are
shuffled around to keep this struct packed tight. We don't use more
memory in common case even with this limit update.
A note about thread synchronization. Since this code can be run in
parallel during delta searching phase, we need a mutex. The realloc
part in packlist_alloc() is not protected because it only happens
during the object counting phase, which is always single-threaded.
Access to e->delta_size_ (and by extension
pack->delta_size[e - pack->objects]) is unprotected as before, the
thread scheduler in pack-objects must make sure "e" is never updated
by two different threads.
The area under the new lock is as small as possible, avoiding locking
at all in common case, since lock contention with high thread count
could be expensive (most blobs are small enough that delta compute
time is short and we end up taking the lock very often). The previous
attempt to always hold a lock in oe_delta_size() and
oe_set_delta_size() increases execution time by 33% when repacking
linux.git with with 40 threads.

Add a function to free struct bitmap_index instances, and use it where
needed (except when rebuild_existing_bitmaps() is used, since it creates
references to the bitmaps within the struct bitmap_index passed to it).
Note that the hashes field in struct bitmap_index is not freed because
it points to another field within the same struct. The documentation for
that field has been updated to clarify that.

Remove the bitmap_git global variable. Instead, generate on demand an
instance of struct bitmap_index for code that needs to access it.
This allows us significant control over the lifetime of instances of
struct bitmap_index. In particular, packs can now be closed without
worrying if an unnecessarily long-lived "pack" field in struct
bitmap_index still points to it.
The bitmap API is also clearer in that we need to first obtain a struct
bitmap_index, then we use it.
This patch raises two potential issues: (1) memory for the struct
bitmap_index is allocated without being freed, and (2)
prepare_bitmap_git() and prepare_bitmap_walk() can reuse a previously
loaded bitmap. For (1), this will be dealt with in a subsequent patch in
this patch set that also deals with freeing the contents of the struct
bitmap_index (which were not freed previously, because they have global
scope). For (2), current bitmap users only load the bitmap once at most
(note that pack-objects can use bitmaps or write bitmaps, but not both
at the same time), so support for reuse has no effect - and future users
can pass around the struct bitmap_index * obtained if they need to do 2
or more things with the same bitmap.

In d8193743e08 (usage.c: add BUG() function, 2017-05-12), a new macro
was introduced to use for reporting bugs instead of die(). It was then
subsequently used to convert one single caller in 588a538ae55

The cover letter of the patch series containing this patch
(cf 20170513032414.mfrwabt4hovujde2@sigill.intra.peff.net) is not
terribly clear why only one call site was converted, or what the plan
is for other, similar calls to die() to report bugs.
Let's just convert all remaining ones in one fell swoop.
This trick was performed by this invocation:

These options are added in [1] [2] [3]. All these depend on running
rev-list internally which is normally true since they are always used
with "--all --objects" which implies --revs. But let's keep this
dependency explicit.
While at there, add documentation for them. These are mostly used
internally by git-repack. But it's still good to not chase down the
right commit message to know how they work.

We only show progress when there are new objects to be packed. But
when --keep-pack is specified on the base pack, we will exclude most
of objects. This makes 'pack-objects' stay silent for a long time
while the counting phase is going.
Let's show some progress whenever we visit an object instead. The old
"Counting objects" is renamed to "Enumerating objects" and a new
progress "Counting objects" line is added.
This new "Counting objects" line should progress pretty quick when the
system is beefy. But when the system is under pressure, the reading
object header done in this phase could be slow and showing progress is

pack-objects could be a big memory hog especially on large repos,
everybody knows that. The suggestion to stick a .keep file on the
giant base pack to avoid this problem is also known for a long time.
Recent patches add an option to do just this, but it has to be either
configured or activated manually. This patch lets `git gc --auto`
activate this mode automatically when it thinks `repack -ad` will use
a lot of memory and start affecting the system due to swapping or
flushing OS cache.
gc --auto decides to do this based on an estimation of pack-objects
memory usage, which is quite accurate at least for the heap part, and
whether that fits in half of system memory (the assumption here is for
desktop environment where there are many other applications running).
This mechanism only kicks in if gc.bigBasePackThreshold is not configured.
If it is, it is assumed that the user already knows what they want.

We allow to keep existing packs by having companion .keep files. This
is helpful when a pack is permanently kept. In the next patch, git-gc
just wants to keep a pack temporarily, for one pack-objects
run. git-gc can use --keep-pack for this use case.
A note about why the pack_keep field cannot be reused and
pack_keep_in_core has to be added. This is about the case when
--keep-pack is specified together with either --keep-unreachable or
--unpack-unreachable, but --honor-pack-keep is NOT specified.
In this case, we want to exclude objects from the packs specified on
command line, not from ones with .keep files. If only one bit flag is
used, we have to clear pack_keep on pack files with the .keep file.
But we can't make any assumption about unreachable objects in .keep
packs. If "pack_keep" field is false for .keep packs, we could
potentially pull lots of unreachable objects into the new pack, or
unpack them loose. The safer approach is ignore all packs with either
.keep file or --keep-pack.

Allowing a delta size of 64 bits is crazy. Shrink this field down to
20 bits with one overflow bit.
If we find an existing delta larger than 1MB, we do not cache
delta_size at all and will get the value from oe_size(), potentially
from disk if it's larger than 4GB.
Note, since DELTA_SIZE() is used in try_delta() code, it must be
thread-safe. Luckily oe_size() does guarantee this so we it is
thread-safe.

It's very very rare that an uncompressed object is larger than 4GB
(partly because Git does not handle those large files very well to
begin with). Let's optimize it for the common case where object size
is smaller than this limit.
Shrink size field down to 31 bits and one overflow bit. If the size is
too large, we read it back from disk. As noted in the previous patch,
we need to return the delta size instead of canonical size when the
to-be-reused object entry type is a delta instead of a canonical one.
Add two compare helpers that can take advantage of the overflow
bit (e.g. if the file is 4GB+, chances are it's already larger than
core.bigFileThreshold and there's no point in comparing the actual
value).
Another note about oe_get_size_slow(). This function MUST be thread
safe because SIZE() macro is used inside try_delta() which may run in
parallel. Outside parallel code, no-contention locking should be dirt
cheap (or insignificant compared to i/o access anyway). To exercise
this code, it's best to run the test suite with something like
make test GIT_TEST_OE_SIZE=4
which forces this code on all objects larger than 3 bytes.

While this field most of the time contains the canonical object size,
there is one case it does not: when we have found that the base object
of the delta in question is also to be packed, we will very happily
reuse the delta by copying it over instead of regenerating the new
delta.
"size" in this case will record the delta size, not canonical object
size. Later on in write_reuse_object(), we reconstruct the delta
header and "size" is used for this purpose. When this happens, the
"type" field contains a delta type instead of a canonical type.
Highlight this in the code since it could be tricky to see.

sha1_object_info() in check_objects() may fail to locate an object in
the pack and return type OBJ_BAD. In that case, it will likely leave
the "size" field untouched. We delay error handling until later in
prepare_pack() though. Until then, do not touch "size" field.
This field should contain the default value zero, but we can't say
sha1_object_info() cannot damage it. This becomes more important later
when the object size may have to be retrieved back from the
(non-existing) pack.

We only cache deltas when it's smaller than a certain limit. This limit
defaults to 1000 but save its compressed length in a 64-bit field.
Shrink that field down to 20 bits, so you can only cache 1MB deltas.
Larger deltas must be recomputed at when the pack is written down.

These delta pointers always point to elements in the objects[] array
in packing_data struct. We can only hold maximum 4G of those objects
because the array size in nr_objects is uint32_t. We could use
uint32_t indexes to address these elements instead of pointers. On
64-bit architecture (8 bytes per pointer) this would save 4 bytes per
pointer.
Convert these delta pointers to indexes. Since we need to handle NULL
pointers as well, the index is shifted by one [1].
[1] This means we can only index 2^32-2 objects even though nr_objects
could contain 2^32-1 objects. It should not be a problem in
practice because when we grow objects[], nr_alloc would probably
blow up long before nr_objects hits the wall.

Instead of using 8 bytes (on 64 bit arch) to store a pointer to a
pack. Use an index instead since the number of packs should be
relatively small.
This limits the number of packs we can handle to 1k. Since we can't be
sure people can never run into the situation where they have more than
1k pack files. Provide a fall back route for it.
If we find out they have too many packs, the new in_pack_by_idx[]
array (which has at most 1k elements) will not be used. Instead we
allocate in_pack[] array that holds nr_objects elements. This is
similar to how the optional in_pack_pos field is handled.
The new simple test is just to make sure the too-many-packs code path
is at least executed. The true test is running
make test GIT_TEST_FULL_IN_PACK_ARRAY=1
to take advantage of other special case tests.

This field is only need for pack-bitmap, which is an optional
feature. Move it to a separate array that is only allocated when
pack-bitmap is used (like objects[], it is not freed, since we need it
until the end of the process)

Because of struct packing from now on we can only handle max depth
4095 (or even lower when new booleans are added in this struct). This
should be ok since long delta chain will cause significant slow down
anyway.
