The GIT_QUIET environment variable was used to signal the non-am
backends that the rebase should perform quietly. The preserve-merges
backend does not make use of the quiet flag anywhere (other than to
write out its state whenever it writes state), and this mechanism was
broken in the conversion from shell to C. Since this environment
variable was specifically designed for scripts and the only backend that
would still use it is no longer a script, just gut this code.
A subsequent commit will fix --quiet for the interactive/merge backend
in a different way.

As established in the previous commit and commit b00bf1c9a8dd
(git-rebase: make --allow-empty-message the default, 2018-06-27), the
behavior for rebase with different backends in various edge or corner
cases is often more happenstance than design. This commit addresses
another such corner case: commits which "become empty".
A careful reader may note that there are two types of commits which would
become empty due to a rebase:
* [clean cherry-pick] Commits which are clean cherry-picks of upstream
commits, as determined by `git log --cherry-mark ...`. Re-applying
these commits would result in an empty set of changes and a
duplicative commit message; i.e. these are commits that have
"already been applied" upstream.
* [become empty] Commits which are not empty to start, are not clean
cherry-picks of upstream commits, but which still become empty after
being rebased. This happens e.g. when a commit has changes which
are a strict subset of the changes in an upstream commit, or when
the changes of a commit can be found spread across or among several
upstream commits.
Clearly, in both cases the changes in the commit in question are found
upstream already, but the commit message may not be in the latter case.
When cherry-mark can determine a commit is already upstream, then
because of how cherry-mark works this means the upstream commit message
was about the *exact* same set of changes. Thus, the commit messages
can be assumed to be fully interchangeable (and are in fact likely to be
completely identical). As such, the clean cherry-pick case represents a
case when there is no information to be gained by keeping the extra
commit around. All rebase types have always dropped these commits, and
no one to my knowledge has ever requested that we do otherwise.
For many of the become empty cases (and likely even most), we will also
be able to drop the commit without loss of information -- but this isn't
quite always the case. Since these commits represent cases that were
not clean cherry-picks, there is no upstream commit message explaining
the same set of changes. Projects with good commit message hygiene will
likely have the explanation from our commit message contained within or
spread among the relevant upstream commits, but not all projects run
that way. As such, the commit message of the commit being rebased may
have reasoning that suggests additional changes that should be made to
adapt to the new base, or it may have information that someone wants to
add as a note to another commit, or perhaps someone even wants to create
an empty commit with the commit message as-is.
Junio commented on the "become-empty" types of commits as follows[1]:
WRT a change that ends up being empty (as opposed to a change that
is empty from the beginning), I'd think that the current behaviour
is desireable one. "am" based rebase is solely to transplant an
existing history and want to stop much less than "interactive" one
whose purpose is to polish a series before making it publishable,
and asking for confirmation ("this has become empty--do you want to
drop it?") is more appropriate from the workflow point of view.
[1] https://lore.kernel.org/git/xmqqfu1fswdh.fsf@gitster-ct.c.googlers.com/
I would simply add that his arguments for "am"-based rebases actually
apply to all non-explicitly-interactive rebases. Also, since we are
stating that different cases should have different defaults, it may be
worth providing a flag to allow users to select which behavior they want
for these commits.
Introduce a new command line flag for selecting the desired behavior:
--empty={drop,keep,ask}
with the definitions:
drop: drop commits which become empty
keep: keep commits which become empty
ask: provide the user a chance to interact and pick what to do with
commits which become empty on a case-by-case basis
In line with Junio's suggestion, if the --empty flag is not specified,
pick defaults as follows:
explicitly interactive: ask
otherwise: drop

Different rebase backends have different treatment for commits which
start empty (i.e. have no changes relative to their parent), and the
--keep-empty option was added at some point to allow adjusting behavior.
The handling of commits which start empty is actually quite similar to
commit b00bf1c9a8dd (git-rebase: make --allow-empty-message the default,
2018-06-27), which pointed out that the behavior for various backends is
often more happenstance than design. The specific change made in that
commit is actually quite relevant as well and much of the logic there
directly applies here.
It makes a lot of sense in 'git commit' to error out on the creation of
empty commits, unless an override flag is provided. However, once
someone determines that there is a rare case that merits using the
manual override to create such a commit, it is somewhere between
annoying and harmful to have to take extra steps to keep such
intentional commits around. Granted, empty commits are quite rare,
which is why handling of them doesn't get considered much and folks tend
to defer to existing (accidental) behavior and assume there was a reason
for it, leading them to just add flags (--keep-empty in this case) that
allow them to override the bad defaults. Fix the interactive backend so
that --keep-empty is the default, much like we did with
--allow-empty-message. The am backend should also be fixed to have
--keep-empty semantics for commits that start empty, but that is not
included in this patch other than a testcase documenting the failure.
Note that there was one test in t3421 which appears to have been written
expecting --keep-empty to not be the default as correct behavior. This
test was introduced in commit 00b8be5a4d38 ("add tests for rebasing of
empty commits", 2013-06-06), which was part of a series focusing on
rebase topology and which had an interesting original cover letter at
https://lore.kernel.org/git/1347949878-12578-1-git-send-email-martinvonz@gmail.com/
which noted
Your input especially appreciated on whether you agree with the
intent of the test cases.
and then went into a long example about how one of the many tests added
had several questions about whether it was correct. As such, I believe
most the tests in that series were about testing rebase topology with as
many different flags as possible and were not trying to state in general
how those flags should behave otherwise.

In 50f26bd ("fetch: add fetch.writeCommitGraph config setting",
2019-09-02), the fetch builtin added the capability to write a
commit-graph using the "--split" feature. This feature creates
multiple commit-graph files, and those can merge based on a set
of "split options" including a size multiple. The default size
multiple is 2, which intends to provide a log_2 N depth of the
commit-graph chain where N is the number of commits.
However, I noticed during dogfooding that my commit-graph chains
were becoming quite large when left only to builds by 'git fetch'.
It turns out that in split_graph_merge_strategy(), we default the
size_mult variable to 2 except we override it with the context's
split_opts if they exist. In builtin/fetch.c, we create such a
split_opts, but do not populate it with values.
This problem is due to two failures:
1. It is unclear that we can add the flag COMMIT_GRAPH_WRITE_SPLIT
with a NULL split_opts.
2. If we have a non-NULL split_opts, then we override the default
values even if a zero value is given.
Correct both of these issues. First, do not override size_mult when
the options provide a zero value. Second, stop creating a split_opts
in the fetch builtin.

When core.sparseCheckoutCone is enabled, the 'git sparse-checkout set'
command takes a list of directories as input, then creates an ordered
list of sparse-checkout patterns such that those directories are
recursively included and all sibling entries along the parent directories
are also included. Listing the patterns is less user-friendly than the
directories themselves.
In cone mode, and as long as the patterns match the expected cone-mode
pattern types, change the output of 'git sparse-checkout list' to only
show the directories that created the patterns.
With this change, the following piped commands would not change the
working directory:
git sparse-checkout list | git sparse-checkout set --stdin
The only time this would not work is if core.sparseCheckoutCone is
true, but the sparse-checkout file contains patterns that do not
match the expected pattern types for cone mode.

I forgot this in my previous patch `--pathspec-from-file` for
`git commit` [1]. When both `--pathspec-from-file` and `--all` were
specified, `--all` took precedence and `--pathspec-from-file` was
ignored. Before `--pathspec-from-file` was implemented, this case was
prevented by this check in `parse_and_validate_options()` :
die(_("paths '%s ...' with -a does not make sense"), argv[0]);
It is unfortunate that these two cases are disconnected. This came as
result of how the code was laid out before my patches, where `pathspec`
is parsed outside of `parse_and_validate_options()`. This branch is
already full of refactoring patches and I did not dare to go for another
one.
Fix by mirroring `die()` for `--pathspec-from-file` as well.

In the previous steps, we re-implemented the main loop of `git add -i`
in C, and most of the commands.
Notably, we left out the actual functionality of `patch`, as the
relevant code makes up more than half of `git-add--interactive.perl`,
and is actually pretty independent of the rest of the commands.
With this commit, we start to tackle that `patch` part. For better
separation of concerns, we keep the code in a separate file,
`add-patch.c`. The new code is still guarded behind the
`add.interactive.useBuiltin` config setting, and for the moment,
it can only be called via `git add -p`.
The actual functionality follows the original implementation of
5cde71d64aff (git-add --interactive, 2006-12-10), but not too closely
(for example, we use string offsets rather than copying strings around,
and after seeing whether the `k` and `j` commands are applicable, in the
C version we remember which previous/next hunk was undecided, and use it
rather than looking again when the user asked to jump).
As a further deviation from that commit, We also use a comma instead of
a slash to separate the available commands in the prompt, as the current
version of the Perl script does this, and we also add a line about the
question mark ("print help") to the help text.
While it is tempting to use this conversion of `git add -p` as an excuse
to work on `apply_all_patches()` so that it does _not_ want to read a
file from `stdin` or from a file, but accepts, say, an `strbuf` instead,
we will refrain from this particular rabbit hole at this stage.

When a user uses the sparse-checkout feature in cone mode, they
add patterns using "git sparse-checkout set <dir1> <dir2> ..."
or by using "--stdin" to provide the directories line-by-line over
stdin. This behaviour naturally looks a lot like the way a user
would type "git add <dir1> <dir2> ..."
If core.ignoreCase is enabled, then "git add" will match the input
using a case-insensitive match. Do the same for the sparse-checkout
feature.
Perform case-insensitive checks while updating the skip-worktree
bits during unpack_trees(). This is done by changing the hash
algorithm and hashmap comparison methods to optionally use case-
insensitive methods.
When this is enabled, there is a small performance cost in the
hashing algorithm. To tease out the worst possible case, the
following was run on a repo with a deep directory structure:
git ls-tree -d -r --name-only HEAD |
git sparse-checkout set --stdin
The 'set' command was timed with core.ignoreCase disabled or
enabled. For the repo with a deep history, the numbers were
core.ignoreCase=false: 62s
core.ignoreCase=true: 74s (+19.3%)
For reproducibility, the equivalent test on the Linux kernel
repository had these numbers:
core.ignoreCase=false: 3.1s
core.ignoreCase=true: 3.6s (+16%)
Now, this is not an entirely fair comparison, as most users
will define their sparse cone using more shallow directories,
and the performance improvement from eb42feca97 ("unpack-trees:
hash less in cone mode" 2019-11-21) can remove most of the
hash cost. For a more realistic test, drop the "-r" from the
ls-tree command to store only the first-level directories.
In that case, the Linux kernel repository takes 0.2-0.25s in
each case, and the deep repository takes one second, plus or
minus 0.05s, in each case.
Thus, we _can_ demonstrate a cost to this change, but it is
unlikely to matter to any reasonable sparse-checkout cone.

In 8164c961e1 (format-patch: use --notes behavior for format.notes,
2019-12-09), we introduced set_display_notes() which was a monolithic
function with three mutually exclusive branches. Break the function up
into three small and simple functions that each are only responsible for
one task.
This family of functions accepts an `int *show_notes` instead of
returning a value suitable for assignment to `show_notes`. This is for
two reasons. First of all, this guarantees that the external
`show_notes` variable changes in lockstep with the
`struct display_notes_opt`. Second, this prompts future developers to be
careful about doing something meaningful with this value. In fact, a
NULL check is intentionally omitted because causing a segfault here
would tell the future developer that they are meant to use the value for
something meaningful.
One alternative was making the family of functions accept a
`struct rev_info *` instead of the `struct display_notes_opt *`, since
the former contains the `show_notes` field as well. This does not work
because we have to call git_config() before repo_init_revisions().
However, if we had a `struct rev_info`, we'd need to initialize it before
it gets assigned values from git_config(). As a result, we break the
circular dependency by having standalone `int show_notes` and
`struct display_notes_opt notes_opt` variables which temporarily hold
values from git_config() until the values are copied over to `rev`.
To implement this change, we need to get a pointer to
`rev_info::show_notes`. Unfortunately, this is not possible with
bitfields and only direct-assignment is possible. Change
`rev_info::show_notes` to a non-bitfield int so that we can get its
address.

Break this circular dependency by creating `show_notes` and `notes_opt`

`rev.show_notes` and `rev.notes_opt` after repo_init_revisions() is

`false`, `<ref2>` (in that order), then we would print out the notes for
both `<ref1>` and `<ref2>`. This doesn't make sense, however, since we
parse the config in a top-down manner and a `false` should be able to
override previous configurations, just like how `--no-notes` will
override previous `--notes`.
Duplicate the logic that handles the `--[no-]notes[=]` option to
`format.notes` for consistency. As a result, when parsing the config
from top to bottom, `format.notes = true` will behave like `--notes`,
`format.notes = <ref>` will behave like `--notes=<ref>` and
`format.notes = false` will behave like `--no-notes`.
This change isn't strictly backwards compatible but since it is an edge
case where a sane user would not mix notes refs with `false` and this
feature is relatively new (released only in v2.23.0), this change should
be harmless.

According to the function comment, init_display_notes() was supposed to
"Load the notes machinery for displaying several notes trees." Rename
this function to load_display_notes() so that its use is more accurately
represented.
This is done because, in a future commit, we will reuse the name
init_display_notes().

Earlier patches in this series moved a couple of conditions from the
recursive name_rev() function into its caller name_ref(), for no other
reason than to make eliminating the recursion a bit easier to follow.
Since the previous patch name_rev() is not recursive anymore, so let's
move all those conditions back into name_rev().

The name_rev() function calls itself recursively for each interesting
parent of the commit it got as parameter, and, consequently, it can
segfault when processing a deep history if it exhausts the available
stack space. E.g. running 'git name-rev --all' and 'git name-rev
HEAD~100000' in the gcc, gecko-dev, llvm, and WebKit repositories
results in segfaults on my machine ('ulimit -s' reports 8192kB of
stack size limit), and nowadays the former segfaults in the Linux repo
as well (it reached the necessasry depth sometime between v5.3-rc4 and
-rc5).
Eliminate the recursion by inserting the interesting parents into a
LIFO 'prio_queue' [1] and iterating until the queue becomes empty.
Note that the parent commits must be added in reverse order to the
LIFO 'prio_queue', so their relative order is preserved during
processing, i.e. the first parent should come out first from the
queue, because otherwise performance greatly suffers on mergy
histories [2].
The stacksize-limited test 'name-rev works in a deep repo' in
't6120-describe.sh' demonstrated this issue and expected failure. Now
the recursion is gone, so flip it to expect success. Also gone are
the dmesg entries logging the segfault of that segfaulting 'git
name-rev' process on every execution of the test suite.
Note that this slightly changes the order of lines in the output of
'git name-rev --all', usually swapping two lines every 35 lines in
git.git or every 150 lines in linux.git. This shouldn't matter in
practice, because the output has always been unordered anyway.
This patch is best viewed with '--ignore-all-space'.
[1] Early versions of this patch used a 'commit_list', resulting in
~15% performance penalty for 'git name-rev --all' in 'linux.git',
presumably because of the memory allocation and release for each
insertion and removal. Using a LIFO 'prio_queue' has basically no
effect on performance.
[2] We prefer shorter names, i.e. 'v0.1~234' is preferred over
'v0.1^2~5', meaning that usually following the first parent of a
merge results in the best name for its ancestors. So when later
we follow the remaining parent(s) of a merge, and reach an already
named commit, then we usually find that we can't give that commit
a better name, and thus we don't have to visit any of its
ancestors again.
OTOH, if we were to follow the Nth parent of the merge first, then
the name of all its ancestors would include a corresponding '^N'.
Those are not the best names for those commits, so when later we
reach an already named commit following the first parent of that
merge, then we would have to update the name of that commit and
the names of all of its ancestors as well. Consequently, we would
have to visit many commits several times, resulting in a
significant slowdown.

Following the previous patches in this series we can get the value of
'name_rev()'s 'tip_name' parameter from the 'struct rev_name'
associated with the commit as well.
So let's use 'name->tip_name' instead, which makes the patch
eliminating the recursion of name_rev() a bit easier to follow.
Note that at this point we could drop the 'tip_name' parameter as
well, but that parameter will be necessary later, after the recursion
is eliminated.

flush_current_id() prints the hexadecimal representation of two object
IDs. When the code was added in f97672225b (Add "git-patch-id" program
to generate patch ID's., 2005-06-23), sha1_to_hex() had only a single
internal static buffer, so the result of one invocation had to be stored
in a local buffer.
Since dcb3450fd8 (sha1_to_hex() usage cleanup, 2006-05-03) it rotates
through four buffers, which allows to print up to four object IDs at the
same time. 1a876a69af6 (patch-id: convert to use struct object_id,
2015-03-13) replaced sha1_to_hex() with oid_to_hex(), which has the same
feature. Use it to simplify the code.

Following the previous patches in this series we can get the values of
name_rev()'s 'generation' and 'distance' parameters from the 'stuct
rev_name' associated with the commit as well.
Let's simplify the function's signature and remove these two
unnecessary parameters.
Note that at this point we could do the same with the 'tip_name',
'taggerdate' and 'from_tag' parameters as well, but those parameters
will be necessary later, after the recursion is eliminated.

At the beginning of the recursive name_rev() function it creates a new
'struct rev_name' instance for each previously unvisited commit or, if
this visit results in better name for an already visited commit, then
updates the 'struct rev_name' instance attached to the commit, or
returns early.
Restructure this so it's caller creates or updates the 'struct
rev_name' instance associated with the commit to be passed as
parameter, i.e. both name_ref() before calling name_rev() and
name_rev() itself as it iterates over the parent commits.
This makes eliminating the recursion a bit easier to follow, and the
condition moved to name_ref() will be moved back to name_rev() after
the recursion is eliminated.
This change also plugs the memory leak that was temporarily unplugged
in the earlier "name-rev: pull out deref handling from the recursion"
patch in this series.
