The pathspec given to git checkout and git restore is used with both
tree_entry_interesting (via read_tree_recursive) and match_pathspec
(via ce_path_match). The latter effectively only supports recursive
matching regardless of the value of the pathspec flag "recursive",
which is unset here.
That causes different match results for pathspecs with wildcards, and
can lead checkout and restore in no-overlay mode to remove entries
instead of modifying them. Enable recursive matching for both checkout
and restore to make matching consistent.
Setting the flag in checkout_main() technically also affects git switch,
but since that command doesn't accept pathspecs at all this has no
actual consequence.

If `user.name` and `user.email` have not been configured and the

without specifying the committer identity, then Git errors out with
a message asking the user to configure `user.name` and `user.email`

A handful of Git's commands respect `--abbrev' for customizing length
of abbreviation of object names.
For diff-family, Git supports 2 different options for 2 different
purposes, `--full-index' for showing diff-patch object's name in full,
and `--abbrev' to customize the length of object names in diff-raw and
diff-tree header lines, without any options to customise the length of
object names in diff-patch format. When working with diff-patch format,
we only have two options, either full index, or default abbrev length.
Although, that behaviour is documented, it doesn't stop users from
trying to use `--abbrev' with the hope of customising diff-patch's
objects' name's abbreviation.
Let's allow the blob object names shown on the "index" line to be
abbreviated to arbitrary length given via the "--abbrev" option.
To preserve backward compatibility with old script that specify both
`--full-index' and `--abbrev', always show full object id
if `--full-index' is specified.

From 72f936b1 (t4013: make test hash independent, 2020-02-07),
we started to adjust metadata of git-diff's output in order to
ignore uninteresting metadata which is dependent of underlying hash
algorithm.
However, we forgot to special case all-zero object names, which is
special for missing objects, in consequence, we could't catch
possible future bugs where object names is all-zeros including but
not limited to:
* show intend-to-add entry
* deleted entry
* diff between index and working tree with new file
We also mistakenly munged file-modes as if they were object names
abbreviated to 6 hexadecimal digits.
In addition, in the upcoming change, we would like to test for
customizing the length of abbreviated blob objects on the index line,
which is not supported by current diff-processor logic.
Let's fix the bug for all-zero object names, and file modes.
While we're at it, support abbreviation of object names up to 16 bytes.

Commit b8a2486f15 (index-pack: support multithreaded delta resolving,
2012-05-06) describes an experiment that shows that setting the number
of threads for index-pack higher than 3 does not help.
I repeated that experiment using a more modern version of Git and a more
modern CPU and got different results.
Here are timings for p5302 against linux.git run on my laptop, a Core
i9-9880H with 8 cores plus hyperthreading (so online-cpus returns 16):
5302.3: index-pack 0 threads 256.28(253.41+2.79)
5302.4: index-pack 1 threads 257.03(254.03+2.91)
5302.5: index-pack 2 threads 149.39(268.34+3.06)
5302.6: index-pack 4 threads 94.96(294.10+3.23)
5302.7: index-pack 8 threads 68.12(339.26+3.89)
5302.8: index-pack 16 threads 70.90(655.03+7.21)
5302.9: index-pack default number of threads 116.91(290.05+3.21)
You can see that wall-clock times continue to improve dramatically up to
the number of cores, but bumping beyond that (into hyperthreading
territory) does not help (and in fact hurts a little).
Here's the same experiment on a machine with dual Xeon 6230's, totaling
40 cores (80 with hyperthreading):
5302.3: index-pack 0 threads 310.04(302.73+6.90)
5302.4: index-pack 1 threads 310.55(302.68+7.40)
5302.5: index-pack 2 threads 178.17(304.89+8.20)
5302.6: index-pack 5 threads 99.53(315.54+9.56)
5302.7: index-pack 10 threads 72.80(327.37+12.79)
5302.8: index-pack 20 threads 60.68(357.74+21.66)
5302.9: index-pack 40 threads 58.07(454.44+67.96)
5302.10: index-pack 80 threads 59.81(720.45+334.52)
5302.11: index-pack default number of threads 134.18(309.32+7.98)
The results are similar; things stop improving at 40 threads. Curiously,
going from 20 to 40 really doesn't help much, either (and increases CPU
time considerably). So that may represent an actual barrier to
parallelism, where we lose out due to context-switching and loss of
cache locality, but don't reap the wall-clock benefits due to contention
of our coarse-grained locks.
So what's a good default value? It's clear that the current cap of 3 is
too low; our default values are 42% and 57% slower than the best times
on each machine. The results on the 40-core machine imply that 20
threads is an actual barrier regardless of the number of cores, so we'll
take that as a maximum. We get the best results on these machines at
half of the online-cpus value. That's presumably a result of the
hyperthreading. That's common on multi-core Intel processors, but not
necessarily elsewhere. But if we take it as an assumption, we can
perform optimally on hyperthreaded machines and still do much better
than the status quo on other machines, as long as we never half below
the current value of 3.
So that's what this patch does.

When PERF_EXTRA is enabled, p5302 checks the performance of index-pack
with various numbers of threads. This can be useful for deciding what
the default should be (which is currently capped at 3 threads based on
the results of this script).
However, we only go up to 8 threads, and modern machines may have more.
Let's get the number of CPUs from test-tool, and test various numbers of
threads between one and that maximum.
Note that the current tests aren't all identical, as we have to set
GIT_FORCE_THREADS for the --threads=1 test (which measures the overhead
of starting a single worker thread versus the "0" case of using the main
thread). To keep the loop simple, we'll keep the "0" case out of it, and
set GIT_FORCE_THREADS=1 for all of the other cases (it's a noop for all
but the "1" case, since numbers higher than 1 would always need
threads).
Note also that we could skip running "test-tool" if PERF_EXTRA isn't
set. However, there's some small value in knowing the number of threads,
so that we can mark each test as skipped in the output.

The primary function of the perf suite is to detect regressions (or
improvements) between versions of Git. The only numbers we show a direct
comparison for are timings between the same test run on two different
versions.
However, it can sometimes be used to collect other information. For
instance, p5302 runs the same index-pack operation with different thread
counts. The output doesn't directly compare these, but anybody
interested in working on index-pack can manually compare the results.
For a normal regression run of the full perf-suite, though, this incurs
a significant cost to generate numbers nobody will actually look at;
about 25% of the total time of the test suite is spent in p5302. And the
low-thread-count runs are the most expensive part of it, since they're
(unsurprisingly) not using as many threads.
Let's skip these tests by default, but make it possible for people
working on index-pack to still run them by setting an environment
variable. Rather than make this specific to p5302, let's introduce a
generic mechanism. This makes it possible to run the full suite with
every possible test if somebody really wants to burn some CPU.

'git rev-parse' can limit the number of characters in the hash it
outputs using the '--short' option, thereby, making the 'cut' invocation
redundant. Since using '--short' implies '--verify' as well, we can
safely replace the latter with the former. This change results in the
helper functions getting the hash in the same way 'summary' gets the
hash internally.
So, avoid the unnecessary invocation to 'cut' in the helper
functions.

When fetching a pack from a promisor remote, the corresponding .promisor
file needs to be created. "fetch-pack" originally did this by passing
"--promisor" to "index-pack", but in 5374a290aa ("fetch-pack: write
fetched refs to .promisor", 2019-10-16), "fetch-pack" was taught to do
this itself instead, because it needed to store ref information in the
.promisor file.
This causes a problem with superprojects when transfer.fsckobjects is
set, because in the current implementation, it is "index-pack" that
calls fsck_finish() to check the objects; before 5374a290aa,
fsck_finish() would see that .gitmodules is a promisor object and
tolerate it being missing, but after, there is no .promisor file (at the
time of the invocation of fsck_finish() by "index-pack") to tell it that
.gitmodules is a promisor object, so it returns an error.
Therefore, teach "fetch-pack" to pass "--promisor" to index pack once
again. "fetch-pack" will subsequently overwrite this file with the ref
information.
An alternative is to instead move object checking to "fetch-pack", and
let "index-pack" only index the files. However, since "index-pack" has
to inflate objects in order to index them, it seems reasonable to also
let it check the objects (which also require inflated files).

When options such as --ignore-space-change are in use, files with
modifications can have no interesting textual changes worth showing. In
such cases, "git diff --stat" shows 0 lines of additions and deletions.
Teach "git diff --stat" not to show such a path in its output, which
would be more natural.
However, we don't want to prevent the display of all files that have 0
effective diffs since they could be the result of a rename, permission
change, or other similar operation that may still be of interest so we
special case additions and deletions as they are always interesting.
