1e7e4a111f environment: stop storing "core.notesRef" globally
Stop storing the "core.notesRef" config value globally. Instead,
retrieve the value in `default_notes_ref()`. The code is never called in
a hot loop anyway, so doing this on every invocation should be perfectly
fine.

9748537437 revision: fix leaking display notes
We never free the display notes options embedded into `struct revision`.
Implement a new function `release_display_notes()` that we can call in
`release_revisions()` to fix this.

There is another gotcha here though: we play some games with the string
list used to track extra notes refs, where we sometimes set the bit that
indicates that strings should be strdup'd and sometimes unset it. This
dance is done to avoid a copy of an already-allocated string when we
call `enable_ref_display_notes()`. But this dance is rather pointless as
we can instead call `string_list_append_nodup()` to transfer ownership
of the allocated string to the list.

Refactor the code to do so and drop the `strdup_strings` dance.

aeee1408ce notes: move the documentation to the struct
Its better to document the struct members directly instead of on a
function that takes a pointer to the struct. This will also make it
easier to update the documentation in the future.

Make adjustments for this new context. Also drop “may contain” since we
don’t need to emphasize that a list could be empty.

`suppress_default_notes` was renamed to `use_default_notes` in
3a03cf6b1d (notes: refactor display notes default handling,
2011-03-29).

The commit message says that “values less than one [indicates] “not

"git format-patch" can take a set of configured format.notes values

In 1d7297513d (notes: break set_display_notes() into smaller functions,
2019-12-11), we introduced a comment which had a couple of typos. In the

'enable_ref_display_notes'. In the second typo, we wrote "is a points to"
instead of "is a pointer to". Correct both of these typos.

1d7297513d notes: break set_display_notes() into smaller functions
In 8164c961e1 (format-patch: use --notes behavior for format.notes,
2019-12-09), we introduced set_display_notes() which was a monolithic
function with three mutually exclusive branches. Break the function up
into three small and simple functions that each are only responsible for
one task.

This family of functions accepts an `int *show_notes` instead of
returning a value suitable for assignment to `show_notes`. This is for
two reasons. First of all, this guarantees that the external
`show_notes` variable changes in lockstep with the
`struct display_notes_opt`. Second, this prompts future developers to be
careful about doing something meaningful with this value. In fact, a
NULL check is intentionally omitted because causing a segfault here
would tell the future developer that they are meant to use the value for
something meaningful.

One alternative was making the family of functions accept a
`struct rev_info *` instead of the `struct display_notes_opt *`, since
the former contains the `show_notes` field as well. This does not work
because we have to call git_config() before repo_init_revisions().
However, if we had a `struct rev_info`, we'd need to initialize it before
it gets assigned values from git_config(). As a result, we break the
circular dependency by having standalone `int show_notes` and
`struct display_notes_opt notes_opt` variables which temporarily hold
values from git_config() until the values are copied over to `rev`.

To implement this change, we need to get a pointer to
`rev_info::show_notes`. Unfortunately, this is not possible with
bitfields and only direct-assignment is possible. Change
`rev_info::show_notes` to a non-bitfield int so that we can get its
address.

"git notes merge" used to limit the source of the merged notes tree

b3715b7522 notes: allow merging from arbitrary references
Create a new expansion function, expand_loose_notes_ref which will first
check whether the ref can be found using get_sha1. If it can't be found
then it will fallback to using expand_notes_ref. The content of the
strbuf will not be changed if the notes ref can be located using
get_sha1. Otherwise, it may be updated as done by expand_notes_ref.

Since we now support merging from non-notes refs, remove the test case
associated with that behavior. Add a test case for merging from a
non-notes ref.

ee76f92fe8 notes: allow treeish expressions as notes ref
init_notes() is the main point of entry to the notes API. It ensures
that the input can be used as ref, because it needs a ref to update to
store notes tree after modifying it.

There however are many use cases where notes tree is only read, e.g.
"git log --notes=...".  Any notes-shaped treeish could be used for such
purpose, but it is not allowed due to existing restriction.

Allow treeish expressions to be used in the case the notes tree is going
to be used without write "permissions".  Add a flag to distinguish
whether the notes tree is intended to be used read-only, or will be
updated.

With this change, operations that use notes read-only can be fed any
notes-shaped tree-ish can be used, e.g. git log --notes=notes@{1}.

a6a09095a0 git notes merge: Add another auto-resolving strategy: "cat_sort_uniq"
This new strategy is similar to "concatenate", but in addition to
concatenating the two note candidates, this strategy sorts the resulting
lines, and removes duplicate lines from the result. This is equivalent to
applying the "cat | sort | uniq" shell pipeline to the two note candidates.

This strategy is useful if the notes follow a line-based format where one
wants to avoid duplicate lines in the merge result.

Note that if either of the note candidates contain duplicate lines _prior_
to the merge, these will also be removed by this merge strategy.

The patch also contains tests and documentation for the new strategy.

180619a585 notes.h/c: Propagate combine_notes_fn return value to add_note() and beyond
The combine_notes_fn functions uses a non-zero return value to indicate
failure. However, this return value was converted to a call to die()
in note_tree_insert().

Instead, propagate this return value out to add_note(), and return it
from there to enable the caller to handle errors appropriately.

Existing add_note() callers are updated to die() upon failure, thus
preserving the current behaviour. The only exceptions are copy_note()
and notes_cache_put() where we are able to propagate the add_note()
return value instead.

This patch has been improved by the following contributions:
- Jonathan Nieder: Future-proof by always checking add_note() return value
- Jonathan Nieder: Improve clarity of final if-condition in note_tree_insert()

e2656c82fd notes.h/c: Allow combine_notes functions to remove notes
Allow combine_notes functions to request that a note be removed, by setting
the resulting note SHA1 to null_sha1 (0000000...).

For consistency, also teach note_tree_insert() to skip insertion of an empty
note (a note with entry->val_sha1 equal to null_sha1) when there is no note
to combine it with.

In general, an empty note (null_sha1) is treated identically to no note at
all, but when adding an empty note where there already exists a non-empty
note, we allow the combine_notes function to potentially record a new/changed
note. Document this behaviour, and clearly specify how combine_notes functions
are expected to handle null_sha1 in input.

Before this patch, storing null_sha1s in the notes tree were silently allowed,
causing an invalid notes tree (referring to blobs with null_sha1) to be
produced by write_notes_tree().

00fbe63627 Notes API: prune_notes(): Prune notes that belong to non-existing objects
When an object is made unreachable by Git, any notes that annotate that object
are not automagically made unreachable, since all notes are always trivially
reachable from a notes ref. In order to remove notes for non-existing objects,
we therefore need to add functionality for traversing the notes tree and
explicitly removing references to notes that annotate non-reachable objects.
Thus the notes objects themselves also become unreachable, and are removed
by a later garbage collect.

prune_notes() performs this traversal (by using for_each_note() internally),
and removes the notes in question from the notes tree.

Note that the effect of prune_notes() is not persistent unless a subsequent
call to write_notes_tree() is made.

851c2b3791 Teach notes code to properly preserve non-notes in the notes tree
The note tree structure allows for non-note entries to coexist with note
entries in a notes tree. Although we certainly expect there to be very
few non-notes in a notes tree, we should still support them to a certain
degree.

This patch teaches the notes code to preserve non-notes when updating the
notes tree with write_notes_tree(). Non-notes are not affected by fanout
restructuring.

For non-notes to be handled correctly, we can no longer allow subtree
entries that do not match the fanout structure produced by the notes code
itself. This means that fanouts like 4/36, 6/34, 8/32, 4/4/32, etc. are
no longer recognized as note subtrees; only 2-based fanouts are allowed
(2/38, 2/2/36, 2/2/2/34, etc.). Since the notes code has never at any point
_produced_ non-2-based fanouts, it is highly unlikely that this change will
cause problems for anyone.

The patch also adds some tests verifying the correct handling of non-notes
in a notes tree.

73f464b5f3 Refactor notes concatenation into a flexible interface for combining notes
When adding a note to an object that already has an existing note, the
current solution is to concatenate the contents of the two notes. However,
the caller may instead wish to _overwrite_ the existing note with the new
note, or maybe even _ignore_ the new note, and keep the existing one. There
might also be other ways of combining notes that are only known to the
caller.

Therefore, instead of unconditionally concatenating notes, we let the caller
specify how to combine notes, by passing in a pointer to a function for
combining notes. The caller may choose to implement its own function for
notes combining, but normally one of the following three conveniently
supplied notes combination functions will be sufficient:

- combine_notes_concatenate() combines the two notes by appending the
  contents of the new note to the contents of the existing note.

- combine_notes_overwrite() replaces the existing note with the new note.

- combine_notes_ignore() keeps the existing note, and ignores the new note.

A combine_notes function can be passed to init_notes() to choose a default
combine_notes function for that notes tree. If NULL is given, the notes tree
falls back to combine_notes_concatenate() as the ultimate default.

A combine_notes function can also be passed directly to add_note(), to
control the notes combining behaviour for a note addition in particular.
If NULL is passed, the combine_notes function registered for the given
notes tree is used.

cd30539214 Notes API: Allow multiple concurrent notes trees with new struct notes_tree
The new struct notes_tree encapsulates access to a specific notes tree.
It is provided to allow callers to make use of several different notes trees
simultaneously.

A struct notes_tree * parameter is added to every function in the notes API.
In all cases, NULL can be passed, in which case the fallback "default" notes
tree (default_notes_tree) is used.
