The specification of promisor packfiles (in partial-clone.txt) states
that the .promisor files that accompany packfiles do not matter (just
like .keep files), so whenever a packfile is fetched from the promisor
remote, Git has been writing empty .promisor files. But these files
could contain more useful information.
So instead of writing empty files, write the refs fetched to these
files. This makes it easier to debug issues with partial clones, as we
can identify what refs (and their associated hashes) were fetched at the
time the packfile was downloaded, and if necessary, compare those hashes
against what the promisor remote reports now.
This is implemented by teaching fetch-pack to write its own non-empty
.promisor file whenever it knows the name of the pack's lockfile. This
covers the case wherein the user runs "git fetch" with an internal
protocol or HTTP protocol v2 (fetch_refs_via_pack() in transport.c sets
lock_pack) and with HTTP protocol v0/v1 (fetch_git() in remote-curl.c
passes "--lock-pack" to "fetch-pack").

Commit 7328482253 (repack: disable bitmaps-by-default if .keep files
exist, 2019-06-29) taught repack to prefer disabling bitmaps to
duplicating objects (unless bitmaps were asked for explicitly).
But there's an easier way to do this: if we keep passing the
--honor-pack-keep flag to pack-objects when auto-enabling bitmaps, then
pack-objects already makes the same decision (it will disable bitmaps
rather than duplicate). Better still, pack-objects can actually decide
to do so based not just on the presence of a .keep file, but on whether
that .keep file actually impacts the new pack we're making (so if we're
racing with a push or fetch, for example, their temporary .keep file
will not block us from generating bitmaps if they haven't yet updated
their refs).
And because repack uses the --write-bitmap-index-quiet flag, we don't
have to worry about pack-objects generating confusing warnings when it
does see a .keep file. We can confirm this by tweaking the .keep test to
check repack's stderr.

Depending on various config options, a full repack may not be able to
build a reachability bitmap index (e.g., if pack.packSizeLimit forces us
to write multiple packs). In these cases pack-objects may write a
warning to stderr.
Since 36eba0323d (repack: enable bitmaps by default on bare repos,
2019-03-14), we may generate these warnings even when the user did not
explicitly ask for bitmaps. This has two downsides:
- it can be confusing, if they don't know what bitmaps are
- a daemonized auto-gc will write this to its log file, and the
presence of the warning may suppress further auto-gc (until
gc.logExpiry has elapsed)
Let's have repack communicate to pack-objects that the choice to turn on
bitmaps was not made explicitly by the user, which in turn allows
pack-objects to suppress these warnings.

got enabled by default in bare repos.
So detect when .keep files exist and stop enabling bitmaps

documented by Jeff King still apply and there's a chance we'd

Earlier, we made sure that the packs are released just before `git gc`

But this developer forgot that gc itself also needs to let go of packs,
e.g. when consolidating all packs via the --aggressive option.
Likewise, `git repack -d` wants to delete obsolete packs and therefore
needs to close all pack handles, too.

"git repack" in a shallow clone did not correctly update the
shallow points in the repository, leading to a repository that
does not pass fsck.
* js/shallow-and-fetch-prune:
repack -ad: prune the list of shallow commits
shallow: offer to prune only non-existing entries
repack: point out a bug handling stale shallow info
`git repack` can drop unreachable commits without further warning,
making the corresponding entries in `.git/shallow` invalid, which causes
serious problems when deepening the branches.
One scenario where unreachable commits are dropped by `git repack` is
when a `git fetch --prune` (or even a `git fetch` when a ref was
force-pushed in the meantime) can make a commit unreachable that was
reachable before.
Therefore it is not safe to assume that a `git repack -adlf` will keep
unreachable commits alone (under the assumption that they had not been
packed in the first place, which is an assumption at least some of Git's
code seems to make).
This is particularly important to keep in mind when looking at the
`.git/shallow` file: if any commits listed in that file become
unreachable, it is not a problem, but if they go missing, it *is* a
problem. One symptom of this problem is that a deepening fetch may now
fail with
fatal: error in object: unshallow <commit-hash>
To avoid this problem, let's prune the shallow list in `git repack` when
the `-d` option is passed, unless `-A` is passed, too (which would force
the now-unreachable objects to be turned into loose objects instead of
being deleted). Additionally, we also need to take `--keep-reachable`
and `--unpack-unreachable=<date>` into account.
Note: an alternative solution discussed during the review of this patch
was to teach `git fetch` to simply ignore entries in .git/shallow if the
corresponding commits do not exist locally. A quick test, however,
revealed that the .git/shallow file is written during a shallow *clone*,
in which case the commits do not exist, either, but the "shallow" line
*does* need to be sent. Therefore, this approach would be a lot more
finicky than the approach presented by the this patch.

The multi-pack-index feature is tested in isolation by
t5319-multi-pack-index.sh, but there are many more interesting
scenarios in the test suite surrounding pack-file data shapes
and interactions. Since the multi-pack-index is an optional
data structure, it does not make sense to include it by default
in those tests.
Instead, add a new GIT_TEST_MULTI_PACK_INDEX environment variable
that enables core.multiPackIndex and writes a multi-pack-index
after each 'git repack' command. This adds extra test coverage
when needed.
There are a few spots in the test suite that need to react to this
change:
* t5319-multi-pack-index.sh: there is a test that checks that
'git repack' deletes the multi-pack-index. Disable the environment
variable to ensure this still happens.
* t5310-pack-bitmaps.sh: One test moves a pack-file from the object
directory to an alternate. This breaks the multi-pack-index, so
delete the multi-pack-index at this point, if it exists.
* t9300-fast-import.sh: One test verifies the number of files in
the .git/objects/pack directory is exactly 8. Exclude the
multi-pack-index from this count so it is still 8 in all cases.

We allow to keep existing packs by having companion .keep files. This
is helpful when a pack is permanently kept. In the next patch, git-gc
just wants to keep a pack temporarily, for one pack-objects
run. git-gc can use --keep-pack for this use case.
A note about why the pack_keep field cannot be reused and
pack_keep_in_core has to be added. This is about the case when
--keep-pack is specified together with either --keep-unreachable or
--unpack-unreachable, but --honor-pack-keep is NOT specified.
In this case, we want to exclude objects from the packs specified on
command line, not from ones with .keep files. If only one bit flag is
used, we have to clear pack_keep on pack files with the .keep file.
But we can't make any assumption about unreachable objects in .keep
packs. If "pack_keep" field is false for .keep packs, we could
potentially pull lots of unreachable objects into the new pack, or
unpack them loose. The safer approach is ignore all packs with either
.keep file or --keep-pack.

If you use "repack -adk" currently, we will pack all objects
that are already packed into the new pack, and then drop the
old packs. However, loose unreachable objects will be left
as-is. In theory these are meant to expire eventually with
"git prune". But if you are using "repack -k", you probably
want to keep things forever and therefore do not run "git
prune" at all. Meaning those loose objects may build up over
time and end up fooling any object-count heuristics (such as
the one done by "gc --auto", though since git-gc does not
support "repack -k", this really applies to whatever custom
scripts people might have driving "repack -k").
With this patch, we instead stuff any loose unreachable
objects into the pack along with the already-packed
unreachable objects. This may seem wasteful, but it is
really no more so than using "repack -k" in the first place.
We are at a slight disadvantage, in that we have no useful
ordering for the result, or names to hand to the delta code.
However, this is again no worse than what "repack -k" is
already doing for the packed objects. The packing of these
objects doesn't matter much because they should not be
accessed frequently (unless they actually _do_ become
referenced, but then they would get moved to a different
part of the packfile during the next repack).

The usual way to do a full repack (and what is done by
git-gc) is to run "repack -Ad --unpack-unreachable=<when>",
which will loosen any unreachable objects newer than
"<when>", and drop any older ones.
This is a safer alternative to "repack -ad", because
"<when>" becomes a grace period during which we will not
drop any new objects that are about to be referenced.
However, it isn't perfectly safe. It's always possible that
a process is about to reference an old object. Even if that
process were to take care to update the timestamp on the
object, there is no atomicity with a simultaneously running
"repack" process.
So while unlikely, there is a small race wherein we may drop
an object that is in the process of being referenced. If you
do automated repacking on a large number of active
repositories, you may hit it eventually, and the result is a
corrupted repository.
It would be nice to fix that race in the long run, but it's
complicated. In the meantime, there is a much simpler
strategy for automated repository maintenance: do not drop
objects at all. We already have a "--keep-unreachable"
option in pack-objects; we just need to plumb it through
from git-repack.
Note that this _isn't_ plumbed through from git-gc, so at
this point it's strictly a tool for people doing their own
advanced repository maintenance strategy.

The strbuf_getline() interface allows a byte other than LF or NUL as
the line terminator, but this is only because I wrote these
codepaths anticipating that there might be a value other than NUL
and LF that could be useful when I introduced line_termination long
time ago. No useful caller that uses other value has emerged.
By now, it is clear that the interface is overly broad without a
good reason. Many codepaths have hardcoded preference to read
either LF terminated or NUL terminated records from their input, and
then call strbuf_getline() with LF or NUL as the third parameter.
This step introduces two thin wrappers around strbuf_getline(),
namely, strbuf_getline_lf() and strbuf_getline_nul(), and
mechanically rewrites these call sites to call either one of
them. The changes contained in this patch are:
* introduction of these two functions in strbuf.[ch]
* mechanical conversion of all callers to strbuf_getline() with
either '\n' or '\0' as the third parameter to instead call the
respective thin wrapper.
After this step, output from "git grep 'strbuf_getline('" would
become a lot smaller. An interim goal of this series is to make
this an empty set, so that we can have strbuf_getline_crlf() take
over the shorter name strbuf_getline().

Prepare for Git on-disk repository representation to undergo
backward incompatible changes by introducing a new repository
format version "1", with an extension mechanism.
* jk/repository-extension:
introduce "preciousObjects" repository extension
introduce "extensions" form of core.repositoryformatversion
As with the previous commit to git_path, assigning the
result of mkpath is suspicious, since it is not clear
whether we will still depend on the value after it may have
been overwritten by subsequent calls. This patch converts
low-hanging fruit to use mkpathdup instead of mkpath (with
the downside that we must remember to free the result).

If this extension is used in a repository, then no
operations should run which may drop objects from the object
storage. This can be useful if you are sharing that storage
with other repositories whose refs you cannot see.
For instance, if you do:
$ git clone -s parent child
$ git -C parent config extensions.preciousObjects true
$ git -C parent config core.repositoryformatversion 1
you now have additional safety when running git in the
parent repository. Prunes and repacks will bail with an
error, and `git gc` will skip those operations (it will
continue to pack refs and do other non-object operations).
Older versions of git, when run in the repository, will
fail on every operation.
Note that we do not set the preciousObjects extension by
default when doing a "clone -s", as doing so breaks
backwards compatibility. It is a decision the user should
make explicitly.

A replacement for contrib/workdir/git-new-workdir that does not
rely on symbolic links and make sharing of objects and refs safer
by making the borrowee and borrowers aware of each other.

"git prune" used to largely ignore broken refs when deciding which
objects are still being used, which could spread an existing small
damage and make it a larger one.

t5312: test object deletion code paths in a corrupted repository
If we are repacking with "-ad", we will drop any unreachable
objects. Likewise, using "-Ad --unpack-unreachable=<time>"
will drop any old, unreachable objects. In these cases, we
want to make sure the reachability we compute with "--all"
is complete. We can do this by passing GIT_REF_PARANOIA=1 in
the environment to pack-objects.
Note that "-Ad" is safe already, because it only loosens
unreachable objects. It is up to "git prune" to avoid
deleting them.
