We have various behavior that's shared across our Makefiles, or that
really should be (e.g. via defined templates). Let's create a
top-level "shared.mak" to house those sorts of things, and start by
adding the ".DELETE_ON_ERROR" flag to it.
See my own 7b76d6bf22 (Makefile: add and use the ".DELETE_ON_ERROR"
flag, 2021-06-29) and db10fc6c09 (doc: simplify Makefile using
.DELETE_ON_ERROR, 2021-05-21) for the addition and use of the
".DELETE_ON_ERROR" flag.
I.e. this changes the behavior of existing rules in the altered
Makefiles (except "Makefile" & "Documentation/Makefile"). I'm
confident that this is safe having read the relevant rules in those
Makfiles, and as the GNU make manual notes that it isn't the default
behavior is out of an abundance of backwards compatibility
caution. From edition 0.75 of its manual, covering GNU make 4.3:
[Enabling '.DELETE_ON_ERROR' is] almost always what you want
'make' to do, but it is not historical practice; so for
compatibility, you must explicitly request it.
This doesn't introduce a bug by e.g. having this
".DELETE_ON_ERROR" flag only apply to this new shared.mak, Makefiles
have no such scoping semantics.
It does increase the danger that any Makefile without an explicit "The
default target of this Makefile is..." snippet to define the default
target as "all" could have its default rule changed if our new
shared.mak ever defines a "real" rule. In subsequent commits we'll be
careful not to do that, and such breakage would be obvious e.g. in the
case of "make -C t".
We might want to make that less fragile still (e.g. by using
".DEFAULT_GOAL" as noted in the preceding commit), but for now let's
simply include "shared.mak" without adding that boilerplate to all the
Makefiles that don't have it already. Most of those are already
exposed to that potential caveat e.g. due to including "config.mak*".

Introduce tests for a variety of `git update-index` use cases, including
performance scenarios. Tests are intended to exercise `update-index` with
options that change the commands interaction with the index (e.g.,
`--again`) and with files/directories inside and outside a sparse checkout
cone.
Of note is that these tests clearly establish the behavior of `git
update-index --add` with untracked, outside-of-cone files. Unlike `git add`,
which fails with an error when provided with such files, `update-index`
succeeds in adding them to the index. Additionally, the `skip-worktree` flag
is *not* automatically added to the new entry. Although this is pre-existing
behavior, there are a couple of reasons to avoid changing it in favor of
consistency with e.g. `git add`:
* `update-index` is low-level command for modifying the index; while it can
perform operations similar to those of `add`, it traditionally has fewer
"guardrails" preventing a user from doing something they may not want to
do (in this case, adding an outside-of-cone, non-`skip-worktree` file to
the index)
* `update-index` typically only exits with an error code if it is incapable
of performing an operation (e.g., if an internal function call fails);
adding a new file outside the sparse checkout definition is still a valid
operation, albeit an inadvisable one
* `update-index` does not implicitly set flags (e.g., `skip-worktree`) when
creating new index entries with `--add`; if flags need to be updated,
options like `--[no-]skip-worktree` allow a user to intentionally set them
All this to say that, while there are valid reasons to consider changing the
treatment of outside-of-cone files in `update-index`, there are also
sufficient reasons for leaving it as-is.

The environment variable $SHELL is usually set to the user's
interactive shell. Our build and test scripts never use $SHELL because
there are no guarantees about its input language. Instead, we use
/bin/sh which should be a POSIX shell.
For systems with a broken /bin/sh, we allow to override that path via
SHELL_PATH. To run tests in yet another shell we allow to override
SHELL_PATH with TEST_SHELL_PATH.
Perf tests run in $SHELL via a wrapper defined in t/perf/perf-lib.sh,
so they break with e.g. SHELL=python. Use TEST_SHELL_PATH like
in other tests. TEST_SHELL_PATH is always defined because
t/perf/perf-lib.sh includes t/test-lib.sh, which includes
GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS.

Enable the sparse index for the 'git blame' command. The index was already
not expanded with this command, so the most interesting thing to do is to
add tests that verify that 'git blame' behaves correctly when the sparse
index is enabled and that its performance improves. More specifically, these
cases are:
1. The index is not expanded for 'blame' when given paths in the sparse
checkout cone at multiple levels.
2. Performance measurably improves for 'blame' with sparse index when given
paths in the sparse checkout cone at multiple levels.
The `p2000` tests demonstrate a ~60% execution time reduction when running
'blame' for a file two levels deep and and a ~30% execution time reduction
for a file three levels deep.

already safely integrates with the sparse index because it shares code

The most interesting thing to do is to add tests that verify that 'git
diff' behaves correctly when the sparse index is enabled. These cases are:
1. The index is not expanded for 'diff' and 'diff --staged'
2. 'diff' and 'diff --staged' behave the same in full checkout, sparse
checkout, and sparse index repositories in the following partially-staged
scenarios (i.e. the index, HEAD, and working directory differ at a given
path):
1. Path is within sparse-checkout cone
2. Path is outside sparse-checkout cone
3. A merge conflict exists for paths outside sparse-checkout cone
The `p2000` tests demonstrate a ~44% execution time reduction for 'git
diff' and a ~86% execution time reduction for 'git diff --staged' using a
sparse index:

When using `test_size` with `wc -c`, users on certain platforms can run

which confuses get_times.
Callers could switch to use test_file_size instead of `wc -c` (the
former never prints leading space characters, so will always work with

To help test the performance of permuting the contents of the hash-cache
when generating a MIDX bitmap, we need a bitmap which has its hash-cache
populated.
And since multi-pack bitmaps don't add *new* values to the hash-cache,
we have to rely on a single-pack bitmap to generate those values for us.
Therefore, generate a pack bitmap before the MIDX one in order to ensure
that the MIDX bitmap has entries in its hash-cache. Since we don't want
to time generating the pack bitmap, move that to a non-perf test run
before we try to generate the MIDX bitmap.
Likewise, get rid of the pack bitmap afterwords, to make certain that we
are not accidentally using it in the performance tests run later on.

Notably, p5326 does not create a MIDX bitmap with multiple packs. This

difference between the two is measuring just the overhead of using MIDX
bitmaps.
Here are the results of p5310 and p5326 together, measured at the same

There is slight overhead in "simulated clone", "simulated partial
clone", and "clone (partial bitmap)". Unsurprisingly, that overhead is
due to using the MIDX's reverse index to map between bit positions and
MIDX positions.
This can be reproduced by running "git repack -adb" along with "git
multi-pack-index write --bitmap" in a large-ish repository. Then run:
$ perf record -o pack.perf git -c core.multiPackIndex=false \
pack-objects --all --stdout >/dev/null </dev/null
$ perf record -o midx.perf git -c core.multiPackIndex=true \
pack-objects --all --stdout >/dev/null </dev/null
and compare the two with "perf diff -c delta -o 1 pack.perf midx.perf".

As we increase our list of commands to test in
p2000-sparse-operations.sh, we will want to have a slightly smaller test
repository. Reduce the size by a factor of four by reducing the depth of
the step that creates a big index around a moderately-sized repository.
Also add a step to run 'git checkout -' on repeat. This requires having
a previous location in the reflog, so add that to the initialization
steps.

When the TEST_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY is defined, then all test data will be
written in that directory instead of the default directory located in
"t/". While this works as expected for our normal tests, performance
tests fail to locate and aggregate performance data because they don't
know to handle TEST_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY correctly and always look at the
default location.
Fix the issue by adding a `--results-dir` parameter to "aggregate.perl"
which identifies the directory where results are and by making the "run"
script awake of the TEST_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY variable.

"git repack -A -d" in a partial clone unnecessarily loosened

repack: avoid loosening promisor objects in partial clones
Builds on top of the sparse-index infrastructure to mark operations

When `git repack -A -d` is run in a partial clone, `pack-objects`
is invoked twice: once to repack all promisor objects, and once to
repack all non-promisor objects. The latter `pack-objects` invocation
is with --exclude-promisor-objects and --unpack-unreachable, which
loosens all objects unused during this invocation. Unfortunately,
this includes promisor objects.
Because the -d argument to `git repack` subsequently deletes all loose
objects also in packs, these just-loosened promisor objects will be
immediately deleted. However, this extra disk churn is unnecessary in
the first place. For example, in a newly-cloned partial repo that
filters all blob objects (e.g. `--filter=blob:none`), `repack` ends up
unpacking all trees and commits into the filesystem because every
object, in this particular case, is a promisor object. Depending on
the repo size, this increases the disk usage considerably: In my copy
of the linux.git, the object directory peaked 26GB of more disk usage.
In order to avoid this extra disk churn, pass the names of the promisor
packfiles as --keep-pack arguments to the second invocation of
`pack-objects`. This informs `pack-objects` that the promisor objects
are already in a safe packfile and, therefore, do not need to be
loosened.
For testing, we need to validate whether any object was loosened.
However, the "evidence" (loosened objects) is deleted during the
process which prevents us from inspecting the object directory.
Instead, let's teach `pack-objects` to count loosened objects and
emit via trace2 thus allowing inspecting the debug events after the
process is finished. This new event is used on the added regression
test.
Lastly, add a new perf test to evaluate the performance impact
made by this changes (tested on git.git):
Test HEAD^ HEAD
----------------------------------------------------------
5600.3: gc 134.38(41.93+90.95) 7.80(6.72+1.35) -94.2%
For a bigger repository, such as linux.git, the improvement is
even bigger:
Test HEAD^ HEAD
-------------------------------------------------------------------
5600.3: gc 6833.00(918.07+3162.74) 268.79(227.02+39.18) -96.1%
These improvements are particular big because every object in the
newly-cloned partial repository is a promisor object.

When --exclude-promisor-objects is given, before traversing any objects
we iterate over all of the objects in any promisor packs, marking them
as UNINTERESTING and SEEN. We turn the oid we get from iterating the
pack into an object with parse_object(), but this has two problems:
- it's slow; we are zlib inflating (and reconstructing from deltas)
every byte of every object in the packfile
- it leaves the tree buffers attached to their structs, which means
our heap usage will grow to store every uncompressed tree
simultaneously. This can be gigabytes.
We can obviously fix the second by freeing the tree buffers after we've
parsed them. But we can observe that the function doesn't look at the
object contents at all! The only reason we call parse_object() is that
we need a "struct object" on which to set the flags. There are two
options here:
- we can look up just the object type via oid_object_info(), and then
call the appropriate lookup_foo() function
- we can call lookup_unknown_object(), which gives us an OBJ_NONE
struct (which will get auto-converted later by object_as_type() via
calls to lookup_commit(), etc).
The first one is closer to the current code, but we do pay the price to
look up the type for each object. The latter should be more efficient in
CPU, though it wastes a little bit of memory (the "unknown" object
structs are a union of all object types, so some of the structs are
bigger than they need to be). It also runs the risk of triggering a
latent bug in code that calls lookup_object() directly but isn't ready
to handle OBJ_NONE (such code would already be buggy, but we use
lookup_unknown_object() infrequently enough that it might be hiding).
I went with the second option here. I don't think the risk is high (and
we'd want to find and fix any such bugs anyway), and it should be more
efficient overall.
The new tests in p5600 show off the improvement (this is on git.git):
Test HEAD^ HEAD
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5600.5: count commits 0.37(0.37+0.00) 0.38(0.38+0.00) +2.7%
5600.6: count non-promisor commits 11.74(11.37+0.37) 0.04(0.03+0.00) -99.7%
The improvement is particularly big in this script because _every_
object in the newly-cloned partial repo is a promisor object. So after
marking them all, there's nothing left to traverse.

To get the list of all promisor objects, we not only include all objects
in promisor packs, but also parse each of those objects to see which
objects they reference. After parsing a tree object, the tree->buffer
field will remain populated until we explicitly free it. So in a partial
clone of blob:none, for example, we are essentially reading every tree
in the repository (since they're all in the initial promisor pack), and
keeping all of their uncompressed contents in memory at once.
This patch frees the tree buffers after we've finished marking all of
their reachable objects. We shouldn't need to do this for any other
object type. While we are using some extra memory to store the structs,
no other object type stores the whole contents in its parsed form (we do
sometimes hold on to commit buffers, but less so these days due to
commit graphs, plus most commands which care about promisor objects turn
off the save_commit_buffer global).
Even for a moderate-sized repository like git.git, this patch drops the
peak heap (as measured by massif) for git-fsck from ~1.7GB to ~138MB.
Fsck is a good candidate for measuring here because it doesn't interact
with the promisor code except to call is_promisor_object(), so we can
isolate just this problem.
The added perf test shows only a tiny improvement on my machine for
git.git, since 1.7GB isn't enough to cause any real memory pressure:
Test HEAD^ HEAD
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5600.4: fsck 21.26(20.90+0.35) 20.84(20.79+0.04) -2.0%
With linux.git the absolute change is a bit bigger, though still a small
percentage:
Test HEAD^ HEAD
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
5600.4: fsck 262.26(259.13+3.12) 254.92(254.62+0.29) -2.8%
I didn't have the patience to run it under massif with linux.git, but
it's probably on the order of about 14GB improvement, since that's the
sum of the sizes of all of the uncompressed trees (but still isn't
enough to create memory pressure on this particular machine, which has
64GB of RAM). Smaller machines would probably see a bigger effect on
runtime (and sadly our perf suite does not measure peak heap).

pack-bitmap: avoid traversal of objects referenced by uninteresting tag
p2000-sparse-operations.sh compares different Git commands in
repositories with many files at HEAD but using sparse-checkout to focus
on a small portion of those files.
Add extra copies of the repository that use the sparse-index format so
we can track how that affects the performance of different commands.
At this point in time, the sparse-index is 100% overhead from the CPU
front, and this is measurable in these tests:
Test

2000.2: git status (full-index-v3) 0.59(0.51+0.12)

Note that there is very little difference between the v3 and v4 index
formats when the sparse-index is enabled. This is primarily due to the
fact that the relative file sizes are the same, and the command time is
mostly taken up by parsing tree objects to expand the sparse index into
a full one.
With the current file layout, the index file sizes are given by this
table:
| full index | sparse index |
+-------------+--------------+
v3 | 108 MiB | 1.6 MiB |
v4 | 80 MiB | 1.2 MiB |
Future updates will improve the performance of Git commands when the
index is sparse.

Create a test script that takes the default performance test (the Git
codebase) and multiplies it by 256 using four layers of duplicated
trees of width four. This results in nearly one million blob entries in
the index. Then, we can clone this repository with sparse-checkout
patterns that demonstrate four copies of the initial repository. Each
clone will use a different index format or mode so peformance can be
tested across the different options.
Note that the initial repo is stripped of submodules before doing the
copies. This preserves the expected data shape of the sparse index,
because directories containing submodules are not collapsed to a sparse
directory entry.
Run a few Git commands on these clones, especially those that use the
index (status, add, commit).
Here are the results on my Linux machine:
Test
--------------------------------------------------------------
2000.2: git status (full-index-v3) 0.37(0.30+0.09)
2000.3: git status (full-index-v4) 0.39(0.32+0.10)
2000.4: git add -A (full-index-v3) 1.42(1.06+0.20)
2000.5: git add -A (full-index-v4) 1.26(0.98+0.16)
2000.6: git add . (full-index-v3) 1.40(1.04+0.18)
2000.7: git add . (full-index-v4) 1.26(0.98+0.17)
2000.8: git commit -a -m A (full-index-v3) 1.42(1.11+0.16)
2000.9: git commit -a -m A (full-index-v4) 1.33(1.08+0.16)
It is perhaps noteworthy that there is an improvement when using index
version 4. This is because the v3 index uses 108 MiB while the v4
index uses 80 MiB. Since the repeated portions of the directories are
very short (f3/f1/f2, for example) this ratio is less pronounced than in
similarly-sized real repositories.
