While updating the microsoft/git fork on top of v2.26.0-rc0 and
consuming that build into Scalar, I noticed a corner case bug around
partial clone.
The "scalar clone" command can create a Git repository with the
proper config for using partial clone with the "blob:none" filter.
Instead of calling "git clone", it runs "git init" then sets a few
more config values before running "git fetch".
In our builds on v2.26.0-rc0, we noticed that our "git fetch"
command was failing with
error: https://github.com/microsoft/scalar did not send all necessary objects
This does not happen if you copy the config file from a repository
created by "git clone --filter=blob:none <url>", but it does happen
when adding the config option "core.logAllRefUpdates = true".
By debugging, I was able to see that the loop inside
check_connnected() that checks if all refs are contained in
promisor packs actually did not have any packfiles in the packed_git
list.
I'm not sure what corner-case issues caused this config option to
prevent the reprepare_packed_git() from being called at the proper
spot during the fetch operation. This approach requires a situation
where we use the remote helper process, which makes it difficult to
test.
It is possible to place a reprepare_packed_git() call in the fetch code
closer to where we receive a pack, but that leaves an opening for a
later change to re-introduce this problem. Further, a concurrent repack
operation could replace the pack-file list we already loaded into
memory, causing this issue in an even harder to reproduce scenario.
It is really the responsibility of anyone looping through the list of
pack-files for a certain object to fall back to reprepare_packed_git()
on a fail-to-find. The loop in check_connected() does not have this
fallback, leading to this bug.
We _could_ try looping through the packs and only reprepare the packs
after a miss, but that change is more involved and has little value.
Since this case is isolated to the case when
opt->check_refs_are_promisor_objects_only is true, we are confident that
we are verifying the refs after downloading new data. This implies that
calling reprepare_packed_git() in advance is not a huge cost compared to
the rest of the operations already made.

Commit dfa33a298d ("clone: do faster object check for partial clones",
2019-04-21) optimized the connectivity check done when cloning with
--filter to check only the existence of objects directly pointed to by
refs. But this is not sufficient: they also need to be promisor objects.
Make this check more robust by instead checking that these objects are
promisor objects, that is, they appear in a promisor pack.

Commit 6462d5eb9a ("fetch: remove fetch_if_missing=0", 2019-11-08)
strove to remove the need for fetch_if_missing=0 from the fetching
mechanism, so it is plausible to attempt removing fetch_if_missing=0
from clone as well. But doing so reveals a bug - when the server does
not send an object directly pointed to by a ref, this should be an
error, not a trigger for a lazy fetch. (This case in the fetching
mechanism was covered by a test using "git clone", not "git fetch",
which is why the aforementioned commit didn't uncover the bug.)
The bug can be fixed by suppressing lazy-fetching during the
connectivity check. Fix this bug, and remove fetch_if_missing from
clone.

When we receive a remote ref update to sha1 "X", we want to check that
we have all of the objects needed by "X". We can assume that our
repository is not currently corrupted, and therefore if we have a ref
pointing at "Y", we have all of its objects. So we can stop our
traversal from "X" as soon as we hit "Y".
If we make the same non-corruption assumption about any repositories we
use to store alternates, then we can also use their ref tips to shorten
the traversal.
This is especially useful when cloning with "--reference", as we
otherwise do not have any local refs to check against, and have to
traverse the whole history, even though the other side may have sent us
few or no objects. Here are results for the included perf test (which
shows off more or less the maximal savings, getting one new commit and
sharing the whole history):

Instead of using the repository_format_partial_clone global
and fetch_objects() directly, let's use has_promisor_remote()
and promisor_remote_get_direct().
This way all the configured promisor remotes will be taken
into account, not only the one specified by
extensions.partialClone.
Also when cloning or fetching using a partial clone filter,
remote.origin.promisor will be set to "true" instead of
setting extensions.partialClone to "origin". This makes it
possible to use many promisor remote just by fetching from
them.

For partial clones, doing a full connectivity check is wasteful; we skip
promisor objects (which, for a partial clone, is all known objects), and
enumerating them all to exclude them from the connectivity check can
take a significant amount of time on large repos.
At most, we want to make sure that we get the objects referred to by any
wanted refs. For partial clones, just check that these objects were
transferred.

When fetching, connectivity is checked after the shallow file is
updated. There are 2 issues with this: (1) the connectivity check is
only performed up to ancestors of existing refs (which is not thorough
enough if we were deepening an existing ref in the first place), and (2)
there is no rollback of the shallow file if the connectivity check
fails.
To solve (1), update the connectivity check to check the ancestry chain
completely in the case of a deepening fetch by refraining from passing
"--not --all" when invoking rev-list in connected.c.
To solve (2), have fetch_pack() perform its own connectivity check
before updating the shallow file. To support existing use cases in which
"git fetch-pack" is used to download objects without much regard as to
the connectivity of the resulting objects with respect to the existing
repository, the connectivity check is only done if necessary (that is,
the fetch is not a clone, and the fetch involves shallow/deepen
functionality). "git fetch" still performs its own connectivity check,
preserving correctness but sometimes performing redundant work. This
redundancy is mitigated by the fact that fetch_pack() reports if it has
performed a connectivity check itself, and if the transport supports
connect or stateless-connect, it will bubble up that report so that "git
fetch" knows not to perform the connectivity check in such a case.
This was noticed when a user tried to deepen an existing repository by
fetching with --no-shallow from a server that did not send all necessary
objects - the connectivity check as run by "git fetch" succeeded, but a
subsequent "git fsck" failed.

The machinery to clone & fetch, which in turn involves packing and
unpacking objects, have been told how to omit certain objects using
the filtering mechanism introduced by the jh/object-filtering

introduced by the jh/fsck-promisors topic.

Connectivity checks have to traverse the entire object graph
in the worst case (e.g., a full clone or a full push). For
large repositories like linux.git, this can take 30-60
seconds, during which time git may produce little or no
output.
Let's add the option of showing progress, which is taken
care of by rev-list.

Unless the "quiet" flag is given, check_connected sends any
errors to the stderr of the caller (because the child
rev-list inherits that descriptor). However, server-side
callers may want to send these over a sideband channel
instead. Let's make that possible.

The number of variants of check_everything_connected has
grown over the years, so that the "real" function takes
several possibly-zero, possibly-NULL arguments. We hid the
complexity behind some wrapper functions, but this doesn't
scale well when we want to add new options.
If we add more wrapper variants to handle the new options,
then we can get a combinatorial explosion when those options
might be used together (right now nobody wants to use both
"shallow" and "transport" together, so we get by with just a
few wrappers).
If instead we add new parameters to each function, each of
which can have a default value, then callers who want the
defaults end up with confusing invocations like:
check_everything_connected(fn, 0, data, -1, 0, NULL);
where it is unclear which parameter is which (and every
caller needs updated when we add new options).
Instead, let's add a struct to hold all of the optional
parameters. This is a little more verbose for the callers
(who have to declare the struct and fill it in), but it
makes their code much easier to follow, because every option
is named as it is set (and unused options do not have to be
mentioned at all).
Note that we could also stick the iteration function and its
callback data into the option struct, too. But since those
are required for each call, by avoiding doing so, we can let
very simple callers just pass "NULL" for the options and not
worry about the struct at all.
While we're touching each site, let's also rename the
function to check_connected(). The existing name was quite
long, and not all of the wrappers even used the full name.

The check_everything_connected function takes a "quiet"
parameter which does two things if non-zero:
1. redirect rev-list's stderr to /dev/null to avoid
showing errors to the user
2. pass "--quiet" to rev-list
Item (1) is obviously useful. But item (2) is
surprisingly not. For rev-list, "--quiet" does not have
anything to do with chattiness on stderr; it tells rev-list
not to bother writing the list of traversed objects to
stdout, for efficiency. And since we always redirect
rev-list's stdout to /dev/null in this function, there is no
point in asking it to ever write anything to stdout.
The efficiency gains are modest; a best-of-five run of "git
rev-list --objects --all" on linux.git dropped from 32.013s
to 30.502s when adding "--quiet". That's only about 5%, but
given how easy it is, it's worth doing.

Most struct child_process variables are cleared using memset first after

When stripping a suffix like:
if (ends_with(str, "foo"))
buf = xmemdupz(str, strlen(str) - 3);
we can instead use strip_suffix to avoid the constant 3,
which must match the literal "foo" (we sometimes use
strlen("foo") instead, but that means we are repeating
ourselves). The example above becomes:
if (strip_suffix(str, "foo", &len))
buf = xmemdupz(str, len);
This also saves a strlen(), since we calculate the string
length when detecting the suffix.
Note that in some cases we also switch from xstrndup to
xmemdupz, which saves a further strlen call.

Fetching from a shallow-cloned repository used to be forbidden,

In order to make sure the cloned repository is good, we run "rev-list
--objects --not --all $new_refs" on the repository. This is expensive
on large repositories. This patch attempts to mitigate the impact in
this special case.
In the "good" clone case, we only have one pack. If all of the
following are met, we can be sure that all objects reachable from the
new refs exist, which is the intention of running "rev-list ...":
- all refs point to an object in the pack
- there are no dangling pointers in any object in the pack
- no objects in the pack point to objects outside the pack
The second and third checks can be done with the help of index-pack as
a slight variation of --strict check (which introduces a new condition
for the shortcut: pack transfer must be used and the number of objects
large enough to call index-pack). The first is checked in
check_everything_connected after we get an "ok" from index-pack.
"index-pack + new checks" is still faster than the current "index-pack
+ rev-list", which is the whole point of this patch. If any of the
conditions fail, we fall back to the good old but expensive "rev-list
..". In that case it's even more expensive because we have to pay for
the new checks in index-pack. But that should only happen when the
other side is either buggy or malicious.

This shortcut is not applied to shallow clones, partly because shallow
clones should have no more objects than a usual fetch and the cost of
rev-list is acceptable, partly to avoid dealing with corner cases when
grafting is involved.
This shortcut does not apply to unpack-objects code path either
because the number of objects must be small in order to trigger that
code path.

Git 1.7.8 introduced an object and history re-validation step after
"fetch" or "push" causes new history to be added to a receiving
repository. This is to protect a malicious server or pushing client from
corrupting the repository by taking advantage of an existing corrupt
object that is unconnected to existing history.
But this check is way over-pessimistic. During "fetch" or "receive-pack"
(the server side of "push"), unpack-objects and index-pack already
validate individual objects that are received, and the only thing we would
want to catch are corrupted objects that already happen to exist in our
repository but are not referenced from our refs. Such objects must have
been written by an earlier run of our codepaths that write out loose
objects or packfiles, and they must have done the validation of individual
objects when they did so. The only thing left to worry about is the
connectivity integrity, which can be checked with "rev-list --objects",
which is much cheaper. We have been paying the 5x to 8x runtime overhead
the --verify-objects often adds for no real gain.
Revert check_everything_connected() not to use this over-pessimistic
check.
Credit goes to Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy, who originally identified the
performance regression and endured multiple rounds of reviews to fix it.
