read_directory() code ignores all paths named ".git" even if it's not
a valid git repository. See treat_path() for details. Since ".git" is
basically invisible to read_directory(), when we are asked to
invalidate a path that contains ".git", we can safely ignore it
because the slow path would not consider it anyway.
This helps when fsmonitor is used and we have a real ".git" repo at
worktree top. Occasionally .git/index will be updated and if the
fsmonitor hook does not filter it, untracked cache is asked to
invalidate the path ".git/index".
Without this patch, we invalidate the root directory unncessarily,
which:
- makes read_directory() fall back to slow path for root directory
(slower)
- makes the index dirty (because UNTR extension is updated). Depending
on the index size, writing it down could also be slow.
A note about the new "safe_path" knob. Since this new check could be
relatively expensive, avoid it when we know it's not needed. If the
path comes from the index, it can't contain ".git". If it does
contain, we may be screwed up at many more levels, not just this one.

ba1b9cac ("fsmonitor: delay updating state until after split index
is merged", 2017-10-27) resolved the problem of the fsmonitor data
being applied to the non-base index when reading; however, a similar
problem exists when writing the index. Specifically, writing of the
fsmonitor extension happens only after the work to split the index
has been applied -- as such, the information in the index is only
for the non-"base" index, and thus the extension information
contains only partial data.
When saving, compute the ewah bitmap before the index is split, and
store it in the fsmonitor_dirty field, mirroring the behavior that
occurred during reading. fsmonitor_dirty is kept from being leaked by
being freed when the extension data is written -- which always happens
precisely once, no matter the split index configuration.

Test the ability to add/remove the fsmonitor index extension via
update-index.
Test that dirty files returned from the integration script are properly
represented in the index extension and verify that ls-files correctly
reports their state.
Test that ensure status results are correct when using the new fsmonitor
extension. Test untracked, modified, and new files by ensuring the
results are identical to when not using the extension.
Test that if the fsmonitor extension doesn't tell git about a change, it
doesn't discover it on its own. This ensures git is honoring the
extension and that we get the performance benefits desired.
Three test integration scripts are provided:
fsmonitor-all - marks all files as dirty
fsmonitor-none - marks no files as dirty
fsmonitor-watchman - integrates with Watchman with debug logging
To run tests in the test suite while utilizing fsmonitor:
First copy t/t7519/fsmonitor-all to a location in your path and then set
GIT_FORCE_PRELOAD_TEST=true and GIT_FSMONITOR_TEST=fsmonitor-all and run
your tests.
Note: currently when using the test script fsmonitor-watchman on
Windows, many tests fail due to a reported but not yet fixed bug in
Watchman where it holds on to handles for directories and files which
prevents the test directory from being cleaned up properly.
