Running:
git rev-list --left-right --use-bitmap-index one...two
will produce output without any left-right markers, since the bitmap
traversal returns only a single set of reachable commits. Instead we
should refuse to use bitmaps here and produce the correct output using a
traditional traversal.
This is probably not the only remaining option that misbehaves with
bitmaps, but it's particularly egregious in that it feels like it
_could_ work. Doing two separate traversals for the left/right sides and
then taking the symmetric set differences should yield the correct
answer, but our traversal code doesn't know how to do that.
It's not clear if naively doing two separate traversals would always be
a performance win. A traditional traversal only needs to walk down to
the merge base, but bitmaps always fill out the full reachability set.
So depending on your bitmap coverage, we could end up walking old bits
of history twice to fill out the same uninteresting bits on both sides.
We'd also of course end up with a very large --boundary set, if the user
asked for that.
So this might or might not be something worth implementing later. But
for now, let's make sure we don't produce the wrong answer if somebody
tries it.
The test covers this, but also the same thing with "--count" (which is
what I originally tried in a real-world case). Ironically the
try_bitmap_count() code already realizes that "--left-right" won't work
there. But that just causes us to fall back to the regular bitmap
traversal code, which itself doesn't handle counting (we produce a list
of objects rather than a count).

as the function is not aware of prereqs at all and will now treat all of
its arguments incorrectly.
Fix this by making the function aware of prereqs by accepting an
optional fourth argument. Adapt the callsites accordingly.

On Windows, we emulate open(3p) via `mingw_open()`. This function
implements handling of some platform-specific quirks that are required
to make it behave as closely as possible like open(3p) would, but for
most cases we just call the Windows-specific `_wopen()` function.
This function has a major downside though: it does not allow us to
specify the sharing mode. While there is `_wsopen()` that allows us to
pass sharing flags, those sharing flags are not the same `FILE_SHARE_*`
flags as `CreateFileW()` accepts. Instead, `_wsopen()` only allows
concurrent read- and write-access, but does not allow for concurrent
deletions. Unfortunately though, we have to allow concurrent deletions
if we want to have POSIX-style atomic renames on top of an existing file
that has open file handles.
Implement a new function that emulates open(3p) for existing files via
`CreateFileW()` such that we can set the required sharing flags.
While we have the same issue when calling open(3p) with `O_CREAT`,
implementing that mode would be more complex due to the required
permission handling. Furthermore, atomic updates via renames typically
write to exclusive lockfile and then perform the rename, and thus we
don't have to handle the case where the locked path has been created
with `O_CREATE`. So while it would be nice to have proper POSIX
semantics in all paths, we instead aim for a minimum viable fix here.

Unless told otherwise, Windows will keep other processes from reading,
writing and deleting files when one has an open handle that was created
via `CreateFileW()`. This behaviour can be altered via `FILE_SHARE_*`
flags:
- `FILE_SHARE_READ` allows a concurrent process to open the file for
reading.
- `FILE_SHARE_WRITE` allows a concurrent process to open the file for
writing.
- `FILE_SHARE_DELETE` allows a concurrent process to delete the file
or to replace it via an atomic rename.
This sharing mechanism is quite important in the context of Git, as we
assume POSIX semantics all over the place. But there are two callsites
where we don't pass all three of these flags:
- We don't set `FILE_SHARE_DELETE` when creating a file for appending
via `mingw_open_append()`. This makes it impossible to delete the
file from another process or to replace it via an atomic rename. The
function was introduced via d641097589 (mingw: enable atomic
O_APPEND, 2018-08-13) and has been using `FILE_SHARE_READ |
FILE_SHARE_WRITE` since the inception. There aren't any indicators
that the omission of `FILE_SHARE_DELETE` was intentional.
- We don't set any sharing flags in `mingw_utime()`, which changes the
access and modification of a file. This makes it impossible to
perform any kind of operation on this file at all from another
process. While we only open the file for a short amount of time to
update its timestamps, this still opens us up for a race condition
with another process.
`mingw_utime()` was originally implemented via `_wopen()`, which
doesn't give you full control over the sharing mode. Instead, it
calls `_wsopen()` with `_SH_DENYNO`, which ultimately translates to
`FILE_SHARE_READ | FILE_SHARE_WRITE`. It was then refactored via
090a3085bc (t/helper/test-chmtime: update mingw to support chmtime
on directories, 2022-03-02) to use `CreateFileW()`, but we stopped
setting any sharing flags at all, which seems like an unintentional
side effect. By restoring `FILE_SHARE_READ | FILE_SHARE_WRITE` we
thus fix this and get back the old behaviour of `_wopen()`.
The fact that we didn't set the equivalent of `FILE_SHARE_DELETE`
can be explained, as well: neither `_wopen()` nor `_wsopen()` allow
you to do so. So overall, it doesn't seem intentional that we didn't
allow deletions here, either.
Adapt both of these callsites to pass all three sharing flags.

When chasing a REF_DELTA, we need to pull the raw hash bytes out of the
mmap'd packfile into an object_id struct. We do that with a raw
hashcpy() of the appropriate length (that happens directly now, though
before the previous commit it happened inside find_pack_entry_one(),
also using a hashcpy).
But I think this creates a potentially dangerous situation due to
d4d364b2c7 (hash: convert `oidcmp()` and `oideq()` to compare whole
hash, 2024-06-14). When using sha1, we'll have uninitialized bytes in
the latter part of the object_id.hash buffer, which could fool oideq(),
etc.
We should use oidread() instead, which correctly zero-pads the extra
bytes, as of c98d762ed9 (global: ensure that object IDs are always
padded, 2024-06-14).
As far as I can see, this has not been a problem in practice because the
object_id we feed to find_pack_entry_one() is never used with oideq(),
etc. It is being compared to the bytes mmap'd from a pack idx file,
which of course do not have the extra padding bytes themselves. So
there's no bug here, but this just puzzled me while looking at the code.
We should do the more obviously safe thing, both for future-proofing and
to avoid confusing readers.

The main function we use to search a pack index for an object is
find_pack_entry_one(). That function still takes a bare pointer to the
hash, despite the fact that its underlying bsearch_pack() function needs
an object_id struct. And so we end up making an extra copy of the hash
into the struct just to do a lookup.
As it turns out, all callers but one already have such an object_id. So
we can just take a pointer to that struct and use it directly. This
avoids the extra copy and provides a more type-safe interface.
The one exception is get_delta_base() in packfile.c, when we are chasing
a REF_DELTA from inside the pack (and thus we have a pointer directly to
the mmap'd pack memory, not a struct). We can just bump the hashcpy()
from inside find_pack_entry_one() to this one caller that needs it.

The find_sha1_pack() function has a few problems:
- it's badly named, since it works with any object hash
- it takes the hash as a bare pointer rather than an object_id struct
We can fix both of these easily, as all callers actually have a real
object_id anyway.
I also found the existence of this function somewhat confusing, as it is
about looking in an arbitrary set of linked packed_git structs. It's
good for things like dumb-http which are looking in downloaded remote
packs, and not our local packs. But despite the name, it is not a good
way to find the pack which contains a local object (it skips the use of
the midx, the pack mru list, and so on).
So let's also add an explanatory comment above the declaration that may
point people in the right direction.
I suspect the calls in fast-import.c, which use the packed_git list from
the repository struct, could actually just be using find_pack_entry().
But since we'd need to keep it anyway for dumb-http, I didn't dig
further there. If we eventually drop dumb-http support, then it might be
worth examining them to see if we can get rid of the function entirely.

We long ago switched most code to using object_id structs instead of
bare "unsigned char *" hashes. This gives us more type safety from the
compiler, and generally makes it easier to understand what we expect in
each parameter.
But the dumb-http code has lagged behind. And indeed, the whole "walker"
subsystem interface has the same problem, though http-walker is the only
user left.
So let's update the walker interface to pass object_id structs (which we
already have anyway at all call sites!), and likewise use those within
the http-walker methods that it calls.
This cleans up the dumb-http code a bit, but will also let us fix a few
more commonly used helper functions.

With a name like parse_packed_git(), you might think it's the right way
to access a local pack index and its associated objects. But not so!
It's a one-off used by the dumb-http code to access pack idx files we've
downloaded from the remote, but whose packs we might not have.
There's only one caller left for this function, and ideally we'd drop it
completely and just inline it there. But that would require exposing
other internals from packfile.[ch], like alloc_packed_git() and
check_packed_git_idx().

- it uses the term "sha1", but it's really using the_hash_algo, which
could be sha256
There's only one caller of it left. And in fact that caller is better
off using the underlying odb_pack_name() function itself, since it's
just copying the result into its own strbuf anyway.

The has_pack_index() function has several oddities that may make it
surprising if you are trying to find out if we have a pack with some
$hash:
- it is not looking for a valid pack that we found while searching
object directories. It just looks for any pack-$hash.idx file in the
pack directory.
- it only looks in the local directory, not any alternates
- it takes a bare "unsigned char" hash, which we try to avoid these
days
The only caller it has is in the dumb http code; it wants to know if we
already have the pack idx in question. This can happen if we downloaded
the pack (and generated its index) during a previous fetch.
Before the previous patch ("dumb-http: store downloaded pack idx as
tempfile"), it could also happen if we downloaded the .idx from the
remote but didn't get the matching .pack. But since that patch, we don't
hold on to those .idx files. So there's no need to look for the .idx
file in the filesystem; we can just scan through the packed_git list to
see if we have it.
That lets us simplify the dumb http code a bit, as we know that if we
have the .idx we have the matching .pack already. And it lets us get rid
of this odd function that is unlikely to be needed again.

This patch fixes a regression in b1b8dfde69 (finalize_object_file():
implement collision check, 2024-09-26) where fetching a v1 pack idx file
over the dumb-http protocol would cause the fetch to fail.
The core of the issue is that dumb-http stores the idx we fetch from the
remote at the same path that will eventually hold the idx we generate
from "index-pack --stdin". The sequence is something like this:
0. We realize we need some object X, which we don't have locally, and
nor does the other side have it as a loose object.
1. We download the list of remote packs from objects/info/packs.
2. For each entry in that file, we download each pack index and store
it locally in .git/objects/pack/pack-$hash.idx (the $hash is not
something we can verify yet and is given to us by the remote).
3. We check each pack index we got to see if it has object X. When we
find a match, we download the matching .pack file from the remote
to a tempfile. We feed that to "index-pack --stdin", which
reindexes the pack, rather than trusting that it has what the other
side claims it does. In most cases, this will end up generating the
exact same (byte-for-byte) pack index which we'll store at the same
pack-$hash.idx path, because the index generation and $hash id are
computed based on what's in the packfile. But:
a. The other side might have used other options to generate the
index. For instance we use index v2 by default, but long ago
it was v1 (and you can still ask for v1 explicitly).
b. The other side might even use a different mechanism to
determine $hash. E.g., long ago it was based on the sorted
list of objects in the packfile, but we switched to using the
pack checksum in 1190a1acf8 (pack-objects: name pack files
after trailer hash, 2013-12-05).
The regression we saw in the real world was (3a). A recent client
fetching from a server with a v1 index downloaded that index, then
complained about trying to overwrite it with its own v2 index. This
collision is otherwise harmless; we know we want to replace the remote
version with our local one, but the collision check doesn't realize
that.
There are a few options to fix it:
- we could teach index-pack a command-line option to ignore only pack
idx collisions, and use it when the dumb-http code invokes
index-pack. This would be an awkward thing to expose users to and
would involve a lot of boilerplate to get the option down to the
collision code.
- we could delete the remote .idx file right before running
index-pack. It should be redundant at that point (since we've just
downloaded the matching pack). But it feels risky to delete
something from our own .git/objects based on what the other side has
said. I'm not entirely positive that a malicious server couldn't lie
about which pack-$hash.idx it has and get us to delete something
precious.
- we can stop co-mingling the downloaded idx files in our local
objects directory. This is a slightly bigger change but I think
fixes the root of the problem more directly.
This patch implements the third option. The big design questions are:
where do we store the downloaded files, and how do we manage their
lifetimes?
There are some additional quirks to the dumb-http system we should
consider. Remember that in step 2 we downloaded every pack index, but in
step 3 we may only download some of the matching packs. What happens to
those other idx files now? They sit in the .git/objects/pack directory,
possibly waiting to be used at a later date. That may save bandwidth for
a subsequent fetch, but it also creates a lot of weird corner cases:
- our local object directory now has semi-untrusted .idx files sitting
around, without their matching .pack
- in case 3b, we noted that we might not generate the same hash as the
other side. In that case even if we download the matching pack,
our index-pack invocation will store it in a different
pack-$hash.idx file. And the unmatched .idx will sit there forever.
- if the server repacks, it may delete the old packs. Now we have
these orphaned .idx files sitting around locally that will never be
used (nor deleted).
- if we repack locally we may delete our local version of the server's
pack index and not realize we have it. So we'll download it again,
even though we have all of the objects it mentions.
I think the right solution here is probably some more complex cache
management system: download the remote .idx files to their own storage
directory, mark them as "seen" when we get their matching pack (to avoid
re-downloading even if we repack), and then delete them when the
server's objects/info/refs no longer mentions them.
But since the dumb http protocol is so ancient and so inferior to the
smart http protocol, I don't think it's worth spending a lot of time
creating such a system. For this patch I'm just downloading the idx
files to .git/objects/tmp_pack_*, and marking them as tempfiles to be
deleted when we exit (and due to the name, any we miss due to a crash,
etc, should eventually be removed by "git gc" runs based on timestamps).
That is slightly worse for one case: if we download an idx but not the
matching pack, we won't retain that idx for subsequent runs. But the
flip side is that we're making other cases better (we never hold on to
useless idx files forever). I suspect that worse case does not even come
up often, since it implies that the packs are generated to match
distinct parts of history (i.e., in practice even in a repo with many
packs you're going to end up grabbing all of those packs to do a clone).
If somebody really cares about that, I think the right path forward is a
managed cache directory as above, and this patch is providing the first
step in that direction anyway (by moving things out of the objects/pack/
directory).
There are two test changes. One demonstrates the broken v1 index case
(it double-checks the resulting clone with fsck to be careful, but prior
to this patch it actually fails at the clone step). The other tweaks the
expectation for a test that covers the "slightly worse" case to
accommodate the extra index download.
The code changes are fairly simple. We stop using finalize_object_file()
to copy the remote's index file into place, and leave it as a tempfile.
We give the tempfile a real ".idx" name, since the packfile code expects
that, and thus we make sure it is out of the usual packs/ directory (so
we'd never mistake it for a real local .idx).
We also have to change parse_pack_index(), which creates a temporary
packed_git to access our index (we need this because all of the pack idx
code assumes we have that struct). It reads the index data from the
tempfile, but prior to this patch would speculatively write the
finalized name into the packed_git struct using the pack-$hash we expect
to use.
I was mildly surprised that this worked at all, since we call
verify_pack_index() on the packed_git which mentions the final name
before moving the file into place! But it works because
parse_pack_index() leaves the mmap-ed data in the struct, so the
lazy-open in verify_pack_index() never triggers, and we read from the
tempfile, ignoring the filename in the struct completely. Hacky, but it
works.
After this patch, parse_pack_index() now uses the index filename we pass
in to derive a matching .pack name. This is OK to change because there
are only two callers, both in the dumb http code (and the other passes
in an existing pack-$hash.idx name, so the derived name is going to be
pack-$hash.pack, which is what we were using anyway).
I'll follow up with some more cleanups in that area, but this patch is
sufficient to fix the regression.

We have a test in t5550 that looks at index fetching over dumb http. It
creates two branches, each of which is completely stored in its own
pack, then fetches the branches independently. What should (and does)
happen is that the first fetch grabs both .idx files and one .pack file,
and then the fetch of the second branch re-uses the previously
downloaded .idx files (fetching none) and grabs the now-required .pack
file.

When we scan a pack directory to load the idx entries we find into the
packed_git list, we skip any of them that are contained in a midx. We
then load them later lazily if we actually need to access the
corresponding pack, referencing them both from the midx struct and the
packed_git list.
The lazy-load in the midx code checks to see if the midx already
mentions the pack, but doesn't otherwise check the packed_git list. This
makes sense, since we should have added any pack to both lists.
But there's a loophole! If we call close_object_store(), that frees the
midx entirely, but _not_ the packed_git structs, which we must keep
around for Reasons[1]. If we then try to look up more objects, we'll
auto-load the midx again, which won't realize that we've already loaded
those packs, and will create duplicate entries in the packed_git list.
This is possibly inefficient, because it means we may open and map the
pack redundantly. But it can also lead to weird user-visible behavior.
The case I found is in "git repack", which closes and reopens the midx
after repacking and then calls update_server_info(). We end up writing
the duplicate entries into objects/info/packs.
We could obviously de-dup them while writing that file, but it seems
like a violation of more core assumptions that we end up with these
duplicate structs at all.
We can avoid the duplicates reasonably efficiently by checking their
names in the pack_map hash. This annoyingly does require a little more
than a straight hash lookup due to the naming conventions, but it should
only happen when we are about to actually open a pack. I don't think one
extra malloc will be noticeable there.
[1] I'm not entirely sure of all the details, except that we generally
assume the packed_git structs never go away. We noted this
restriction in the comment added by 6f1e9394e2 (object: fix leaking
packfiles when closing object store, 2024-08-08), but it's somewhat
vague. At any rate, if you try freeing the structs in
close_object_store(), you can observe segfaults all over the test
suite. So it might be fixable, but it's not trivial.

(non-negative integers) and with strtol_i() for --max-connections
(signed integers). This improves error handling and input validation
by detecting invalid values and providing clear error messages.
Update tests to ensure these arguments are properly validated.

We often name functions with arbitrary suffixes like `_1` as an
extension of another existing function. This creates confusion and
doesn't provide good clarity into the functions purpose. Let's document
good function naming etiquette in our CodingGuidelines.

`git mv a/a.txt a b/` is a nonsense instruction. Instead of failing
gracefully the command trips over itself,[1] leaving behind unfinished
work:
1. first it moves `a/a.txt` to `b/a.txt`; then
2. tries to move `a/`, including `a/a.txt`; then
3. figures out that it’s in a bad state (assertion); and finally
4. aborts.
Now you’re left with a partially-updated index.
The command should instead fail gracefully and make no changes to the
index until it knows that it can complete a sensible action.
For now just add a failing test since this has been known about for
a while.[2]
† 1: Caused by a `pos >= 0` assertion

This change updates the script to conform to the coding
standards outlined in the Git project's documentation. According to the
guidelines in Documentation/CodingGuidelines under "Redirection
operators", there should be no whitespace after redirection operators.

An extra worktree attached to a repository points at each other to
allow finding the repository from the worktree and vice versa
possible. Turn this linkage to relative paths.
* cw/worktree-relative:
worktree: add test for path handling in linked worktrees
worktree: link worktrees with relative paths
worktree: refactor infer_backlink() to use *strbuf
worktree: repair copied repository and linked worktrees
Fail gracefully instead of crashing when attempting to write the
contents of a corrupt in-core index as a tree object.
* ps/cache-tree-w-broken-index-entry:
unpack-trees: detect mismatching number of cache-tree/index entries
cache-tree: detect mismatching number of index entries
cache-tree: refactor verification to return error codes
