When tests are run for a subsection defined in a config file, it is
better if the results for the current subsection are not overwritting
the results of a previous subsection.
So let's store the results for a subsection in a subdirectory of
"test-results/" with the subsection name.
The aggregate.perl, when it is run for a subsection, should then
aggregate the results found in "test-results/$GIT_PERF_SUBSECTION/".

Add get_var_from_env_or_config() to easily set variables
from a config file if they are defined there and not already set.
This can also set them to a default value if one is provided.
As an example, use this function to set GIT_PERF_REPEAT_COUNT
from the perf.repeatCount config option or from the default
value.

When the tested repo has an index.lock file it should be removed. This
file may be present if e.g. git-status previously crashed in that
repo, and it will make a lot of git commands fail. Let's try harder
and remove the lock.

Add a function to setup a fresh test repo via 'git init' to compliment
the existing functions to copy over a normal & large repo.
Some performance tests don't need any existing repository data at all
to be significant, e.g. tests which stress glob matches against single
pathological revisions or files, which I'm about to add in a
subsequent commit.

Since 1a0962dee (t/perf: fix regression in testing older
versions of git, 2016-06-22), we point "$MODERN_GIT" to a
copy of git that matches the t/perf script itself, and which
can be used for tasks outside of the actual timings. This is
needed because the setup done by perf scripts keeps moving
forward in time, and may use features that the older
versions of git we are testing do not have.
That commit used $MODERN_GIT to fix a case where we relied
on the relatively recent --git-path option. But if you go
back further still, there are more problems.
Since 7501b5921 (perf: make the tests work in worktrees,
2016-05-13), we use "git -C", but versions of git older than
44e1e4d67 (git: run in a directory given with -C option,
2013-09-09) don't know about "-C". So testing an old version
of git with a new version of t/perf will fail the setup
step.
We can fix this by using $MODERN_GIT during the setup;
there's no need to use the antique version, since it doesn't
affect the timings. Likewise, we'll adjust the "init"
invocation; antique versions of git called this "init-db".

Allow t/perf framework to use the features from the most recent
version of Git even when testing an older installed version.
* jk/perf-any-version:
p4211: explicitly disable renames in no-rename test
t/perf: fix regression in testing older versions of git
|

Commit 7501b59 (perf: make the tests work in worktrees,
2016-05-13) introduced the use of "git rev-parse --git-path"
in the perf-lib setup code. Because the to-be-tested version
of git is at the front of the $PATH when this code runs,
this means we cannot use modern versions of t/perf to test
versions of git older than v2.5.0 (when that option was
introduced).
This is a symptom of a more general problem. The t/perf
suite is essentially independent of git versions, and
ideally we would be able to run the most modern and complete
set of tests across many historical versions (to see how
they compare). But any setup code they run is therefore
required to use the lowest common denominator we expect to
test.
So let's introduce a new variable, $MODERN_GIT, that we can
use both in perf-lib and in the test setup to get a reliable
set of git features (we might change git and break some
tests, of course, but $MODERN_GIT is tied to the same
version of git as the t/perf scripts, so they can be fixed
or adjusted together).
This commit fixes the "--git-path" case, but does not
mass-convert existing setup code to use $MODERN_GIT. Most
setup code is fairly vanilla and will work with effectively
all versions. But now the tool is there to fix any other
issues we find going forward.

As this developer has no access to MacOSX developer setups anymore,
Travis becomes the best bet to run performance tests on that OS.
However, on MacOSX /usr/bin/time is that good old BSD executable that
no Linux user cares about, as demonstrated by the perf-lib.sh's use
of GNU-ish extensions. And by the hard-coded path.
Let's just work around this issue by using gtime on MacOSX, the
Homebrew-provided GNU implementation onto which pretty much every
MacOSX power user falls back anyway.
To help other developers use Travis to run performance tests on
MacOSX, the .travis.yml file now sports a commented-out line that
installs GNU time via Homebrew.

This patch makes perf-lib.sh more robust so that it can run correctly
even inside a worktree. For example, it assumed that $GIT_DIR/objects is
the objects directory (which is not the case for worktrees) and it used
the commondir file verbatim, even if it contained a relative path.
Furthermore, the setup code expected `git rev-parse --git-dir` to spit
out a relative path, which is also not true for worktrees. Let's just
change the code to accept both relative and absolute paths, by avoiding
the `cd` into the copied working directory.

We already have a perfectly fine prereq to tell us whether it is safe to
use symlinks. So let's use it.
This fixes the performance tests in Git for Windows' SDK, where symlinks
are not really available ([*1*]). This is not an issue with Git for
Windows itself because it configures core.symlinks=false in its system
config. However, the system config is disabled for the performance
tests, for obvious reasons: we want them to be independent of the
vagaries of any local configuration.
Footnote *1*: Windows has symbolic links. Git for Windows disables them
by default, though (for example: in standard setups, non-admins lack the
privilege to create symbolic links). For details, see
https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/wiki/Symbolic-Links

When copying the test repository, we try to detect whether
the copy succeeded. However, most of the heavy lifting is
done inside a for loop, where our "break" will lose the exit
code of the failing "cp". We can take advantage of the fact
that we are in a subshell, and just "exit 1" to break out
with a code.

A #! line in these files is misleading, since these scriptlets are
meant to be sourced with '.' (using whatever shell sources them)
instead of run directly using the interpreter named on the #! line.
Removing the #! line shouldn't hurt syntax highlighting since
these files have filenames ending with '.sh'. For documentation,
add a brief description of how the files are meant to be used in
place of the shebang line.

* lf/echo-n-is-not-portable:
Avoid using `echo -n` anywhere
|
|
`echo -n` is non-portable. The POSIX specification says:
Conforming applications that wish to do prompting without <newline>
characters or that could possibly be expecting to echo a -n, should
use the printf utility derived from the Ninth Edition system.
Since all of the affected shell scripts use a POSIX shell shebang,
replace `echo -n` invocations with printf.

The most important in this change is to avoid affecting anything
when test-lib is used from perf-lib. It also limits the effect of
the MALLOC_CHECK only to what is run inside the actual test, and
uses a fixed MALLOC_PERTURB_ in order to avoid hurting repeatability
of the tests.

The seq command is GNU-ism, and is missing at least in older BSD
releases and their derivatives, not to mention antique
commercial Unixes.
We already purged it in b3431bc (Don't use seq in tests, not
everyone has it, 2007-05-02), but a few new instances have crept
in. They went unnoticed because they are in scripts that are not
run by default.
Replace them with test_seq that is implemented with a Perl snippet
(proposed by Jeff). This is better than inlining this snippet
everywhere it's needed because it's easier to read and it's easier
to change the implementation (e.g. to C) if we ever decide to remove
Perl from the test suite.
Note that test_seq is not a complete replacement for seq(1). It
just has what we need now, in addition that it makes it possible for
us to do something like "test_seq a m" if we wanted to in the
future.
There are also many places that do `for i in 1 2 3 ...` but I'm not sure
if it's worth converting them to test_seq. That would introduce running
more processes of Perl.

The only bug right now is that $GIT_TEST_CMP is needed for test_cmp to
work.
However, we also export the three most important paths for tests:
TEST_DIRECTORY
TRASH_DIRECTORY
GIT_BUILD_DIR
Since they are available within test_expect_success, a future test
writer may expect them to also be defined in test_perf.

This introduces a performance testing framework under t/perf/. It
tries to be as close to the test-lib.sh infrastructure as possible,
and thus should be easy to get used to for git developers.
The following points were considered for the implementation:
1. You usually want to compare arbitrary revisions/build trees against
each other. They may not have the performance test under
consideration, or even the perf-lib.sh infrastructure.
To cope with this, the 'run' script lets you specify arbitrary
build dirs and revisions. It even automatically builds the revisions
if it doesn't have them at hand yet.
2. Usually you would not want to run all tests. It would take too
long anyway. The 'run' script lets you specify which tests to run;
or you can also do it manually. There is a Makefile for
discoverability and 'make clean', but it is not meant for
real-world use.
3. Creating test repos from scratch in every test is extremely
time-consuming, and shipping or downloading such large/weird repos
is out of the question.
We leave this decision to the user. Two different sizes of test
repos can be configured, and the scripts just copy one or more of
those (using hardlinks for the object store). By default it tries
to use the build tree's git.git repository.
This is fairly fast and versatile. Using a copy instead of a clone
preserves many properties that the user may want to test for, such
as lots of loose objects, unpacked refs, etc.
