2022-03-25fsmonitor: config settings are repository-specificLibravatar Jeff Hostetler1-1/+0
Move fsmonitor config settings to a new and opaque `struct fsmonitor_settings` structure. Add a lazily-loaded pointer to this into `struct repo_settings` Create an `enum fsmonitor_mode` type in `struct fsmonitor_settings` to represent the state of fsmonitor. This lets us represent which, if any, fsmonitor provider (hook or IPC) is enabled. Create `fsm_settings__get_*()` getters to lazily look up fsmonitor- related config settings. Get rid of the `core_fsmonitor` global variable. Move the code to lookup the existing `core.fsmonitor` config value into the fsmonitor settings. Create a hook pathname variable in `struct fsmonitor-settings` and only set it when in hook mode. Extend the definition of `core.fsmonitor` to be either a boolean or a hook pathname. When true, the builtin FSMonitor is used. When false or unset, no FSMonitor (neither builtin nor hook) is used. The existing `core_fsmonitor` global variable was used to store the pathname to the fsmonitor hook *and* it was used as a boolean to see if fsmonitor was enabled. This dual usage and global visibility leads to confusion when we add the IPC-based provider. So lets hide the details in fsmonitor-settings.c and let it decide which provider to use in the case of multiple settings. This avoids cluttering up repo-settings.c with these private details. A future commit in builtin-fsmonitor series will add the ability to disqualify worktrees for various reasons, such as being mounted from a remote volume, where fsmonitor should not be started. Having the config settings hidden in fsmonitor-settings.c allows such worktree restrictions to override the config values used.

2022-03-15core.fsync: new option to harden referencesLibravatar Patrick Steinhardt1-2/+5
When writing both loose and packed references to disk we first create a lockfile, write the updated values into that lockfile, and on commit we rename the file into place. According to filesystem developers, this behaviour is broken because applications should always sync data to disk before doing the final rename to ensure data consistency [1][2][3]. If applications fail to do this correctly, a hard crash of the machine can easily result in corrupted on-disk data. This kind of corruption can in fact be easily observed with Git when the machine hard-resets shortly after writing references to disk. On machines with ext4, this will likely lead to the "empty files" problem: the file has been renamed, but its data has not been synced to disk. The result is that the reference is corrupt, and in the worst case this can lead to data loss. Implement a new option to harden references so that users and admins can avoid this scenario by syncing locked loose and packed references to disk before we rename them into place.

2022-03-10core.fsync: new option to harden the indexLibravatar Neeraj Singh1-0/+1
This commit introduces the new ability for the user to harden the index. In the event of a system crash, the index must be durable for the user to actually find a file that has been added to the repo and then deleted from the working tree. We use the presence of the COMMIT_LOCK flag and absence of the alternate_index_output as a proxy for determining whether we're updating the persistent index of the repo or some temporary index. We don't sync these temporary indexes. Signed-off-by: Neeraj Singh <neerajsi@microsoft.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2022-03-10core.fsync: introduce granular fsync control infrastructureLibravatar Neeraj Singh1-0/+23
This commit introduces the infrastructure for the core.fsync configuration knob. The repository components we want to sync are identified by flags so that we can turn on or off syncing for specific components. If core.fsyncObjectFiles is set and the core.fsync configuration also includes FSYNC_COMPONENT_LOOSE_OBJECT, we will fsync any loose objects. This picks the strictest data integrity behavior if core.fsync and core.fsyncObjectFiles are set to conflicting values. This change introduces the currently unused fsync_component helper, which will be used by a later patch that adds fsyncing to the refs backend. Actual configuration and documentation of the fsync components list are in other patches in the series to separate review of the underlying mechanism from the policy of how it's configured.

2022-03-10core.fsyncmethod: add writeout-only modeLibravatar Neeraj Singh1-0/+7
This commit introduces the `core.fsyncMethod` configuration knob, which can currently be set to `fsync` or `writeout-only`. The new writeout-only mode attempts to tell the operating system to flush its in-memory page cache to the storage hardware without issuing a CACHE_FLUSH command to the storage controller. Writeout-only fsync is significantly faster than a vanilla fsync on common hardware, since data is written to a disk-side cache rather than all the way to a durable medium. Later changes in this patch series will take advantage of this primitive to implement batching of hardware flushes. When git_fsync is called with FSYNC_WRITEOUT_ONLY, it may fail and the caller is expected to do an ordinary fsync as needed. On Apple platforms, the fsync system call does not issue a CACHE_FLUSH directive to the storage controller. This change updates fsync to do fcntl(F_FULLFSYNC) to make fsync actually durable. We maintain parity with existing behavior on Apple platforms by setting the default value of the new core.fsyncMethod option.

2022-03-09Merge branch 'en/present-despite-skipped'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+1
In sparse-checkouts, files mis-marked as missing from the working tree could lead to later problems. Such files were hard to discover, and harder to correct. Automatically detecting and correcting the marking of such files has been added to avoid these problems. * en/present-despite-skipped: repo_read_index: add config to expect files outside sparse patterns Accelerate clear_skip_worktree_from_present_files() by caching Update documentation related to sparsity and the skip-worktree bit repo_read_index: clear SKIP_WORKTREE bit from files present in worktree unpack-trees: fix accidental loss of user changes t1011: add testcase demonstrating accidental loss of user modifications
2022-03-01repo_read_index: add config to expect files outside sparse patternsLibravatar Elijah Newren1-0/+1
Typically with sparse checkouts, we expect files outside the sparsity patterns to be marked as SKIP_WORKTREE and be missing from the working tree. Sometimes this expectation would be violated however; including in cases such as: * users grabbing files from elsewhere and writing them to the worktree (perhaps by editing a cached copy in an editor, copying/renaming, or even untarring) * various git commands having incomplete or no support for the SKIP_WORKTREE bit[1,2] * users attempting to "abort" a sparse-checkout operation with a not-so-early Ctrl+C (updating $GIT_DIR/info/sparse-checkout and the working tree is not atomic)[3]. When the SKIP_WORKTREE bit in the index did not reflect the presence of the file in the working tree, it traditionally caused confusion and was difficult to detect and recover from. So, in a sparse checkout, since af6a51875a (repo_read_index: clear SKIP_WORKTREE bit from files present in worktree, 2022-01-14), Git automatically clears the SKIP_WORKTREE bit at index read time for entries corresponding to files that are present in the working tree. There is another workflow, however, where it is expected that paths outside the sparsity patterns appear to exist in the working tree and that they do not lose the SKIP_WORKTREE bit, at least until they get modified. A Git-aware virtual file system[4] takes advantage of its position as a file system driver to expose all files in the working tree, fetch them on demand using partial clone on access, and tell Git to pay attention to them on demand by updating the sparse checkout pattern on writes. This means that commands like "git status" only have to examine files that have potentially been modified, whereas commands like "ls" are able to show the entire codebase without requiring manual updates to the sparse checkout pattern. Thus since af6a51875a, Git with such Git-aware virtual file systems unsets the SKIP_WORKTREE bit for all files and commands like "git status" have to fetch and examine them all. Introduce a configuration setting sparse.expectFilesOutsideOfPatterns to allow limiting the tracked set of files to a small set once again. A Git-aware virtual file system or other application that wants to maintain files outside of the sparse checkout can set this in a repository to instruct Git not to check for the presence of SKIP_WORKTREE files. The setting defaults to false, so most users of sparse checkout will still get the benefit of an automatically updating index to recover from the variety of difficult issues detailed in af6a51875a for paths with SKIP_WORKTREE set despite the path being present.

2022-02-25object-file API: pass an enum to read_object_with_reference()Libravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-1/+1
Change the read_object_with_reference() function to take an "enum object_type". It was not prepared to handle an arbitrary "const char *type", as it was itself calling type_from_string(). Let's change the only caller that passes in user data to use type_from_string(), and convert the rest to use e.g. "OBJ_TREE" instead of "tree_type". The "cat-file" caller is not on the codepath that handles"--allow-unknown", so the type_from_string() there is safe. Its use of type_from_string() doesn't functionally differ from that of the pre-image. Signed-off-by: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <avarab@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2022-02-25object-file API: split up and simplify check_object_signature()Libravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-4/+8
Split up the check_object_signature() function into that non-streaming version (it accepts an already filled "buf"), and a new stream_object_signature() which will retrieve the object from storage, and hash it on-the-fly. All of the callers of check_object_signature() were effectively calling two different functions, if we go by cyclomatic complexity. I.e. they'd either take the early "if (map)" branch and return early, or not. This has been the case since the "if (map)" condition was added in 090ea12671b (parse_object: avoid putting whole blob in core, 2012-03-07). We can then further simplify the resulting check_object_signature() function since only one caller wanted to pass a non-NULL "buf" and a non-NULL "real_oidp". That "read_loose_object()" codepath used by "git fsck" can instead use hash_object_file() followed by oideq().

Move the declaration of the date.c functions from cache.h, and adjust the relevant users to include the new date.h header. The show_ident_date() function belonged in pretty.h (it's defined in pretty.c), its two users outside of pretty.c didn't strictly need to include pretty.h, as they get it indirectly, but let's add it to them anyway. Similarly, the change to "builtin/{fast-import,show-branch,tag}.c" isn't needed as far as the compiler is concerned, but since they all use the "DATE_MODE()" macro we now define in date.h, let's have them include it. We could simply include this new header in "cache.h", but as this change shows these functions weren't common enough to warrant including in it in the first place. By moving them out of cache.h changes to this API will no longer cause a (mostly) full re-build of the project when "make" is run.

2022-01-26compat: auto-detect if zlib has uncompress2()Libravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-1/+0
We have a copy of uncompress2() implementation in compat/ so that we can build with an older version of zlib that lack the function, and the build procedure selects if it is used via the NO_UNCOMPRESS2 $(MAKE) variable. This is yet another "annoying" knob the porters need to tweak on platforms that are not common enough to have the default set in the config.mak.uname file. Attempt to instead ask the system header <zlib.h> to decide if we need the compatibility implementation. This is a deviation from the way we have been handling the "compatiblity" features so far, and if it can be done cleanly enough, it could work as a model for features that need compatibility definition we discover in the future. With that goal in mind, avoid expedient but ugly hacks, like shoving the code that is conditionally compiled into an unrelated .c file, which may not work in future cases---instead, take an approach that uses a file that is independently compiled and stands on its own. Compile and link compat/zlib-uncompress2.c file unconditionally, but conditionally hide the implementation behind #if/#endif when zlib version is 1.2.9 or newer, and unconditionally archive the resulting object file in the libgit.a to be picked up by the linker. There are a few things to note in the shape of the code base after this change: - We no longer use NO_UNCOMPRESS2 knob; if the system header <zlib.h> claims a version that is more cent than the library actually is, this would break, but it is easy to add it back when we find such a system. - The object file compat/zlib-uncompress2.o is always compiled and archived in libgit.a, just like a few other compat/ object files already are. - The inclusion of <zlib.h> is done in <git-compat-util.h>; we used to do so from <cache.h> which includes <git-compat-util.h> as the first thing it does, so from the *.c codes, there is no practical change. - Until objects in libgit.a that is already used gains a reference to the function, the reftable code will be the only one that wants it, so libgit.a on the linker command line needs to appear once more at the end to satisify the mutual dependency. - Beat found a trick used by OpenSSL to avoid making the conditionally-compiled object truly empty (apparently because they had to deal with compilers that do not want to see an effectively empty input file). Our compat/zlib-uncompress2.c file borrows the same trick for portabilty.

There are two identical declarations of `ensure_full_index()` in cache.h. Commit 3964fc2aae ("sparse-index: add guard to ensure full index", 2021-03-30) provided an empty implementation of `ensure_full_index()`, declaring it in a new file sparse-index.h. When commit 4300f8442a ("sparse-index: implement ensure_full_index()", 2021-03-30) fleshed out the implementation, it added an identical declaration to cache.h. Then 118a2e8bde ("cache: move ensure_full_index() to cache.h", 2021-04-01) favored having the declaration in cache.h. Because of the double declaration, at that point we could have just dropped the one in sparse-index.h, but instead it got moved to cache.h. As a result, cache.h contains the exact same function declaration twice. Drop the one under "/* Name hashing */", in favor of the one under "/* Initialize and use the cache information */".

2022-01-07update-index: refresh should rewrite index in case of racy timestampsLibravatar Marc Strapetz1-0/+1
'git update-index --refresh' and '--really-refresh' should force writing of the index file if racy timestamps have been encountered, as 'git status' already does [1]. Note that calling 'git update-index --refresh' still does not guarantee that there will be no more racy timestamps afterwards (the same holds true for 'git status'): - calling 'git update-index --refresh' immediately after touching and adding a file may still leave racy timestamps if all three operations occur within the racy-tolerance (usually 1 second unless USE_NSEC has been defined) - calling 'git update-index --refresh' for timestamps which are set into the future will leave them racy To guarantee that such racy timestamps will be resolved would require to wait until the system clock has passed beyond these timestamps and only then write the index file. Especially for future timestamps, this does not seem feasible because of possibly long delays/hangs.

2021-12-30cat-file: use GET_OID_ONLY_TO_DIE in --(textconv|filters)Libravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-0/+1
Change the cat_one_file() logic that calls get_oid_with_context() under --textconv and --filters to use the GET_OID_ONLY_TO_DIE flag, thus improving the error messaging emitted when e.g. <path> is missing but <rev> is not. To service the "cat-file" use-case we need to introduce a new "GET_OID_REQUIRE_PATH" flag, otherwise it would exit early as soon as a valid "HEAD" was resolved, but in the "cat-file" case being changed we always need a valid revision and path. This arguably makes the "<bad rev>:<bad path>" and "<bad rev>:<good (in HEAD) path>" use cases worse, as we won't quote the <path> component at the user anymore, but let's just use the existing logic "git log" et al use for now. We can improve the messaging for those cases as a follow-up for all callers. Signed-off-by: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <avarab@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2021-12-09setup: introduce startup_info->original_cwdLibravatar Elijah Newren1-0/+2
Removing the current working directory causes all subsequent git commands run from that directory to get confused and fail with a message about being unable to read the current working directory: $ git status fatal: Unable to read current working directory: No such file or directory Non-git commands likely have similar warnings or even errors, e.g. $ bash -c 'echo hello' shell-init: error retrieving current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent directories: No such file or directory hello This confuses end users, particularly since the command they get the error from is not the one that caused the problem; the problem came from the side-effect of some previous command. We would like to avoid removing the current working directory of our parent process; towards this end, introduce a new variable, startup_info->original_cwd, that tracks the current working directory that we inherited from our parent process. For convenience of later comparisons, we prefer that this new variable store a path relative to the toplevel working directory (thus much like 'prefix'), except without the trailing slash. Subsequent commits will make use of this new variable.

2021-11-29reset: make sparse-aware (except --mixed)Libravatar Victoria Dye1-0/+10
Remove `ensure_full_index` guard on `prime_cache_tree` and update `prime_cache_tree_rec` to correctly reconstruct sparse directory entries in the cache tree. While processing a tree's entries, `prime_cache_tree_rec` must determine whether a directory entry is sparse or not by searching for it in the index (*without* expanding the index). If a matching sparse directory index entry is found, no subtrees are added to the cache tree entry and the entry count is set to 1 (representing the sparse directory itself). Otherwise, the tree is assumed to not be sparse and its subtrees are recursively added to the cache tree.

2021-11-04strbuf_addftime(): handle "%s" manuallyLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+1
The strftime() function has a non-standard "%s" extension, which prints the number of seconds since the epoch. But the "struct tm" we get has already been adjusted for a particular time zone; going back to an epoch time requires knowing that zone offset. Since strftime() doesn't take such an argument, round-tripping to a "struct tm" and back to the "%s" format may produce the wrong value (off by tz_offset seconds). Since we're already passing in the zone offset courtesy of c3fbf81a85 (strbuf: let strbuf_addftime handle %z and %Z itself, 2017-06-15), we can use that same value to adjust our epoch seconds accordingly. Note that the description above makes it sound like strftime()'s "%s" is useless (and really, the issue is shared by mktime(), which is what strftime() would use under the hood). But it gets the two cases for which it's designed correct: - the result of gmtime() will have a zero offset, so no adjustment is necessary - the result of localtime() will be offset by the local zone offset, and mktime() and strftime() are defined to assume this offset when converting back (there's actually some magic here; some implementations record this in the "struct tm", but we can't portably access or manipulate it. But they somehow "know" whether a "struct tm" is from gmtime() or localtime()). This latter point means that "format-local:%s" actually works correctly already, because in that case we rely on the system routines due to 6eced3ec5e (date: use localtime() for "-local" time formats, 2017-06-15). Our problem comes when trying to show times in the author's zone, as the system routines provide no mechanism for converting in non-local zones. So in those cases we have a "struct tm" that came from gmtime(), but has been manipulated according to our offset. The tests cover the broken round-trip by formatting "%s" for a time in a non-system timezone. We use the made-up "+1234" here, which has two advantages. One, we know it won't ever be the real system zone (and so we're actually testing a case that would break). And two, since it has a minute component, we're testing the full decoding of the +HHMM zone into a number of seconds. Likewise, we test the "-1234" variant to make sure there aren't any sign mistakes. There's one final test, which covers "format-local:%s". As noted, this already passes, but it's important to check that we didn't regress this case. In particular, the caller in show_date() is relying on localtime() to have done the zone adjustment, independent of any tz_offset we compute ourselves. These should match up, since our local_tzoffset() is likewise built around localtime(). But it would be easy for a caller to forget to pass in a correct tz_offset to strbuf_addftime(). Fortunately show_date() does this correctly (it has to because of the existing handling of %z), and the test continues to pass. So this one is just future-proofing against a change in our assumptions. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2021-10-29tests: disable fsync everywhereLibravatar Eric Wong1-0/+1
The "GIT_TEST_FSYNC" environment variable now exists for disabling fsync() even on packfiles and other "critical" data. Running "make test -j8 NO_SVN_TESTS=1" on a noisy 8-core system on an HDD, test runtime drops from ~4 minutes down to ~3 minutes. Using "GIT_TEST_FSYNC=1" re-enables fsync() for comparison purposes. SVN interopability tests are minimally affected since SVN will still use fsync in various places. This will also be useful for 3rd-party tools which create throwaway git repositories of temporary data, but remains undocumented for end users.

2021-10-12commit: fix duplication regression in permission error outputLibravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-0/+1
Fix a regression in the error output emitted when .git/objects can't be written to. Before 9c4d6c0297b (cache-tree: Write updated cache-tree after commit, 2014-07-13) we'd emit only one "insufficient permission" error, now we'll do so again. The cause is rather straightforward, we've got WRITE_TREE_SILENT for the use-case of wanting to prepare an index silently, quieting any permission etc. error output. Then when we attempt to update to that (possibly broken) index we'll run into the same errors again. But with 9c4d6c0297b the gap between the cache-tree API and the object store wasn't closed in terms of asking write_object_file() to be silent. I.e. post-9c4d6c0297b the first call is to prepare_index(), and after that we'll call prepare_to_commit(). We only want verbose error output from the latter. So let's add and use that facility with a corresponding HASH_SILENT flag, its only user is cache-tree.c's update_one(), which will set it if its "WRITE_TREE_SILENT" flag is set.

Improve the error that's emitted in cases where we find a loose object we parse, but which isn't at the location we expect it to be. Before this change we'd prefix the error with a not-a-OID derived from the path at which the object was found, due to an emergent behavior in how we'd end up with an "OID" in these codepaths. Now we'll instead say what object we hashed, and what path it was found at. Before this patch series e.g.: $ git hash-object --stdin -w -t blob </dev/null e69de29bb2d1d6434b8b29ae775ad8c2e48c5391 $ mv objects/e6/ objects/e7 Would emit ("[...]" used to abbreviate the OIDs): git fsck error: hash mismatch for ./objects/e7/9d[...] (expected e79d[...]) error: e79d[...]: object corrupt or missing: ./objects/e7/9d[...] Now we'll instead emit: error: e69d[...]: hash-path mismatch, found at: ./objects/e7/9d[...] Furthermore, we'll do the right thing when the object type and its location are bad. I.e. this case: $ git hash-object --stdin -w -t garbage --literally </dev/null 8315a83d2acc4c174aed59430f9a9c4ed926440f $ mv objects/83 objects/84 As noted in an earlier commits we'd simply die early in those cases, until preceding commits fixed the hard die on invalid object type: $ git fsck fatal: invalid object type Now we'll instead emit sensible error messages: $ git fsck error: 8315[...]: hash-path mismatch, found at: ./objects/84/15[...] error: 8315[...]: object is of unknown type 'garbage': ./objects/84/15[...] In both fsck.c and object-file.c we're using null_oid as a sentinel value for checking whether we got far enough to be certain that the issue was indeed this OID mismatch. We need to add the "object corrupt or missing" special-case to deal with cases where read_loose_object() will return an error before completing check_object_signature(), e.g. if we have an error in unpack_loose_rest() because we find garbage after the valid gzip content: $ git hash-object --stdin -w -t blob </dev/null e69de29bb2d1d6434b8b29ae775ad8c2e48c5391 $ chmod 755 objects/e6/9de29bb2d1d6434b8b29ae775ad8c2e48c5391 $ echo garbage >>objects/e6/9de29bb2d1d6434b8b29ae775ad8c2e48c5391 $ git fsck error: garbage at end of loose object 'e69d[...]' error: unable to unpack contents of ./objects/e6/9d[...] error: e69d[...]: object corrupt or missing: ./objects/e6/9d[...] There is currently some weird messaging in the edge case when the two are combined, i.e. because we're not explicitly passing along an error state about this specific scenario from check_stream_oid() via read_loose_object() we'll end up printing the null OID if an object is of an unknown type *and* it can't be unpacked by zlib, e.g.: $ git hash-object --stdin -w -t garbage --literally </dev/null 8315a83d2acc4c174aed59430f9a9c4ed926440f $ chmod 755 objects/83/15a83d2acc4c174aed59430f9a9c4ed926440f $ echo garbage >>objects/83/15a83d2acc4c174aed59430f9a9c4ed926440f $ /usr/bin/git fsck fatal: invalid object type $ ~/g/git/git fsck error: garbage at end of loose object '8315a83d2acc4c174aed59430f9a9c4ed926440f' error: unable to unpack contents of ./objects/83/15a83d2acc4c174aed59430f9a9c4ed926440f error: 8315a83d2acc4c174aed59430f9a9c4ed926440f: object corrupt or missing: ./objects/83/15a83d2acc4c174aed59430f9a9c4ed926440f error: 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000: object is of unknown type 'garbage': ./objects/83/15a83d2acc4c174aed59430f9a9c4ed926440f [...] I think it's OK to leave that for future improvements, which would involve enum-ifying more error state as we've done with "enum unpack_loose_header_result" in preceding commits. In these increasingly more obscure cases the worst that can happen is that we'll get slightly nonsensical or inapplicable error messages. There's other such potential edge cases, all of which might produce some confusing messaging, but still be handled correctly as far as passing along errors goes. E.g. if check_object_signature() returns and oideq(real_oid, null_oid()) is true, which could happen if it returns -1 due to the read_istream() call having failed.

2021-10-01object-file.c: stop dying in parse_loose_header()Libravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-2/+9
Make parse_loose_header() return error codes and data instead of invoking die() by itself. For now we'll move the relevant die() call to loose_object_info() and read_loose_object() to keep this change smaller. In a subsequent commit we'll make read_loose_object() return an error code instead of dying. We should also address the "allow_unknown" case (should be moved to builtin/cat-file.c), but for now I'll be leaving it. For making parse_loose_header() not die() change its prototype to accept a "struct object_info *" instead of the "unsigned long *sizep" it accepted before. Its callers can now check the populated populated "oi->typep". Because of this we don't need to pass in the "unsigned int flags" which we used for OBJECT_INFO_ALLOW_UNKNOWN_TYPE, we can instead do that check in loose_object_info(). This also refactors some confusing control flow around the "status" variable. In some cases we set it to the return value of "error()", i.e. -1, and later checked if "status < 0" was true. Since 93cff9a978e (sha1_loose_object_info: return error for corrupted objects, 2017-04-01) the return value of loose_object_info() (then named sha1_loose_object_info()) had been a "status" variable that be any negative value, as we were expecting to return the "enum object_type". The only negative type happens to be OBJ_BAD, but the code still assumed that more might be added. This was then used later in e.g. c84a1f3ed4d (sha1_file: refactor read_object, 2017-06-21). Now that parse_loose_header() will return 0 on success instead of the type (which it'll stick into the "struct object_info") we don't need to conflate these two cases in its callers. Since parse_loose_header() doesn't need to return an arbitrary "status" we only need to treat its "ret < 0" specially, but can idiomatically overwrite it with our own error() return. This along with having made unpack_loose_header() return an "enum unpack_loose_header_result" in an earlier commit means that we can move the previously nested if/else cases mostly into the "ULHR_OK" branch of the "switch" statement. We should be less silent if we reach that "status = -1" branch, which happens if we've got trailing garbage in loose objects, see f6371f92104 (sha1_file: add read_loose_object() function, 2017-01-13) for a better way to handle it. For now let's punt on it, a subsequent commit will address that edge case. Signed-off-by: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <avarab@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

The unpack_loose_header_to_strbuf() function was added in 46f034483eb (sha1_file: support reading from a loose object of unknown type, 2015-05-03). Its code was mostly copy/pasted between it and both of unpack_loose_header() and unpack_loose_short_header(). We now have a single unpack_loose_header() function which accepts an optional "struct strbuf *" instead. I think the remaining unpack_loose_header() function could be further simplified, we're carrying some complexity just to be able to emit a garbage type longer than MAX_HEADER_LEN, we could alternatively just say "we found a garbage type <first 32 bytes>..." instead.
