tempfile: auto-allocate tempfiles on heap The previous commit taught the tempfile code to give up ownership over tempfiles that have been renamed or deleted. That makes it possible to use a stack variable like this: struct tempfile t; create_tempfile(&t, ...); ... if (!err) rename_tempfile(&t, ...); else delete_tempfile(&t); But doing it this way has a high potential for creating memory errors. The tempfile we pass to create_tempfile() ends up on a global linked list, and it's not safe for it to go out of scope until we've called one of those two deactivation functions. Imagine that we add an early return from the function that forgets to call delete_tempfile(). With a static or heap tempfile variable, the worst case is that the tempfile hangs around until the program exits (and some functions like setup_shallow_temporary rely on this intentionally, creating a tempfile and then leaving it for later cleanup). But with a stack variable as above, this is a serious memory error: the variable goes out of scope and may be filled with garbage by the time the tempfile code looks at it. Let's see if we can make it harder to get this wrong. Since many callers need to allocate arbitrary numbers of tempfiles, we can't rely on static storage as a general solution. So we need to turn to the heap. We could just ask all callers to pass us a heap variable, but that puts the burden on them to call free() at the right time. Instead, let's have the tempfile code handle the heap allocation _and_ the deallocation (when the tempfile is deactivated and removed from the list). This changes the return value of all of the creation functions. For the cleanup functions (delete and rename), we'll add one extra bit of safety: instead of taking a tempfile pointer, we'll take a pointer-to-pointer and set it to NULL after freeing the object. This makes it safe to double-call functions like delete_tempfile(), as the second call treats the NULL input as a noop. Several callsites follow this pattern. The resulting patch does have a fair bit of noise, as each caller needs to be converted to handle: 1. Storing a pointer instead of the struct itself. 2. Passing the pointer instead of taking the struct address. 3. Handling a "struct tempfile *" return instead of a file descriptor. We could play games to make this less noisy. For example, by defining the tempfile like this: struct tempfile { struct heap_allocated_part_of_tempfile { int fd; ...etc } *actual_data; } Callers would continue to have a "struct tempfile", and it would be "active" only when the inner pointer was non-NULL. But that just makes things more awkward in the long run. There aren't that many callers, so we can simply bite the bullet and adjust all of them. And the compiler makes it easy for us to find them all. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

So let's not assume that a `packed-refs` file is sorted unless it is explicitly declared to be so via a `sorted` trait in its header line.

Since *we* always write the file correctly sorted, include that trait when we write or rewrite a `packed-refs` file. This means that the scan described in the previous paragraph should only have to be done for `packed-refs` files that were written by older versions of the Git command-line client, or by other clients that haven't yet learned to write the `sorted` trait. If `packed-refs` was already sorted, then (if the system allows it) we can use the mmapped file contents directly. But if the system doesn't allow a file that is currently mmapped to be replaced using `rename()`, then it would be bad for us to keep the file mmapped for any longer than necessary. So, on such systems, always make a copy of the file contents, either as part of the sorting process, or afterwards.

refs/packed-backend.c: implement jump lists to avoid excluded pattern(s) When iterating through the `packed-refs` file in order to answer a query like: $ git for-each-ref --exclude=refs/__hidden__ it would be useful to avoid walking over all of the entries in `refs/__hidden__/*` when possible, since we know that the ref-filter code is going to throw them away anyways. In certain circumstances, doing so is possible. The algorithm for doing so is as follows: - For each excluded pattern, find the first record that matches it, and the first record that *doesn't* match it (i.e. the location you'd next want to consider when excluding that pattern). - Sort the set of excluded regions from the previous step in ascending order of the first location within the `packed-refs` file that matches. - Clean up the results from the previous step: discard empty regions, and combine adjacent regions. The set of regions which remains is referred to as the "jump list", and never contains any references which should be included in the result set. Then when iterating through the `packed-refs` file, if `iter->pos` is ever contained in one of the regions from the previous steps, advance `iter->pos` past the end of that region, and continue enumeration. Note that we only perform this optimization when none of the excluded pattern(s) have special meta-characters in them. For a pattern like "refs/foo[ac]", the excluded regions ("refs/fooa", "refs/fooc", and everything underneath them) are not connected. A future implementation that handles this case may split the character class (pretending as if two patterns were excluded: "refs/fooa", and "refs/fooc"). There are a few other gotchas worth considering. First, note that the jump list is sorted, so once we jump past a region, we can avoid considering it (or any regions preceding it) again. The member `jump_pos` is used to track the first next-possible region to jump through. Second, note that the jump list is best-effort, since we do not handle loose references, and because of the meta-character issue above. The jump list may not skip past all references which won't appear in the results, but will never skip over a reference which does appear in the result set. In repositories with a large number of hidden references, the speed-up can be significant.

In fact, we already write the `packed-refs` file sorted, but it is possible that other Git clients don't get it right. So let's not assume that a `packed-refs` file is sorted unless it is explicitly declared to be so via a `sorted` trait in its header line. If it is *not* declared to be sorted, then scan quickly through the file to check. If it is found to be out of order, then sort the records into a new memory-only copy. This checking and sorting is done quickly, without parsing the full file contents. However, it needs a little bit of care to avoid reading past the end of the buffer even if the `packed-refs` file is corrupt. Since *we* always write the file correctly sorted, include that trait when we write or rewrite a `packed-refs` file. This means that the scan described in the previous paragraph should only have to be done for `packed-refs` files that were written by older versions of the Git command-line client, or by other clients that haven't yet learned to write the `sorted` trait. If `packed-refs` was already sorted, then (if the system allows it) we can use the mmapped file contents directly. But if the system doesn't allow a file that is currently mmapped to be replaced using `rename()`, then it would be bad for us to keep the file mmapped for any longer than necessary. So, on such systems, always make a copy of the file contents, either as part of the sorting process, or afterwards.

But we want to get rid of the `ref_cache`, so we want to be able to iterate directly over the `packed-refs` buffer, and then the iteration will need to be ordered correctly. In fact, we already write the `packed-refs` file sorted, but it is possible that other Git clients don't get it right. So let's not assume that a `packed-refs` file is sorted unless it is explicitly declared to be so via a `sorted` trait in its header line. If it is *not* declared to be sorted, then scan quickly through the file to check. If it is found to be out of order, then sort the records into a new memory-only copy. This checking and sorting is done quickly, without parsing the full file contents. However, it needs a little bit of care to avoid reading past the end of the buffer even if the `packed-refs` file is corrupt. Since *we* always write the file correctly sorted, include that trait when we write or rewrite a `packed-refs` file. This means that the scan described in the previous paragraph should only have to be done for `packed-refs` files that were written by older versions of the Git command-line client, or by other clients that haven't yet learned to write the `sorted` trait. If `packed-refs` was already sorted, then (if the system allows it) we can use the mmapped file contents directly. But if the system doesn't allow a file that is currently mmapped to be replaced using `rename()`, then it would be bad for us to keep the file mmapped for any longer than necessary. So, on such systems, always make a copy of the file contents, either as part of the sorting process, or afterwards.

refs/packed-backend.c: implement jump lists to avoid excluded pattern(s) When iterating through the `packed-refs` file in order to answer a query like: $ git for-each-ref --exclude=refs/__hidden__ it would be useful to avoid walking over all of the entries in `refs/__hidden__/*` when possible, since we know that the ref-filter code is going to throw them away anyways. In certain circumstances, doing so is possible. The algorithm for doing so is as follows: - For each excluded pattern, find the first record that matches it, and the first record that *doesn't* match it (i.e. the location you'd next want to consider when excluding that pattern). - Sort the set of excluded regions from the previous step in ascending order of the first location within the `packed-refs` file that matches. - Clean up the results from the previous step: discard empty regions, and combine adjacent regions. The set of regions which remains is referred to as the "jump list", and never contains any references which should be included in the result set. Then when iterating through the `packed-refs` file, if `iter->pos` is ever contained in one of the regions from the previous steps, advance `iter->pos` past the end of that region, and continue enumeration. Note that we only perform this optimization when none of the excluded pattern(s) have special meta-characters in them. For a pattern like "refs/foo[ac]", the excluded regions ("refs/fooa", "refs/fooc", and everything underneath them) are not connected. A future implementation that handles this case may split the character class (pretending as if two patterns were excluded: "refs/fooa", and "refs/fooc"). There are a few other gotchas worth considering. First, note that the jump list is sorted, so once we jump past a region, we can avoid considering it (or any regions preceding it) again. The member `jump_pos` is used to track the first next-possible region to jump through. Second, note that the jump list is best-effort, since we do not handle loose references, and because of the meta-character issue above. The jump list may not skip past all references which won't appear in the results, but will never skip over a reference which does appear in the result set. In repositories with a large number of hidden references, the speed-up can be significant.

string-list: multi-delimiter `string_list_split_in_place()` Enhance `string_list_split_in_place()` to accept multiple characters as delimiters instead of a single character. Instead of using `strchr(2)` to locate the first occurrence of the given delimiter character, `string_list_split_in_place_multi()` uses `strcspn(2)` to move past the initial segment of characters comprised of any characters in the delimiting set. When only a single delimiting character is provided, `strpbrk(2)` (which is implemented with `strcspn(2)`) has equivalent performance to `strchr(2)`. Modern `strcspn(2)` implementations treat an empty delimiter or the singleton delimiter as a special case and fall back to calling strchrnul(). Both glibc[1] and musl[2] implement `strcspn(2)` this way. This change is one step to removing `strtok(2)` from the tree. Note that `string_list_split_in_place()` is not a strict replacement for `strtok()`, since it will happily turn sequential delimiter characters into empty entries in the resulting string_list. For example: string_list_split_in_place(&xs, "foo:;:bar:;:baz", ":;", -1) would yield a string list of: ["foo", "", "", "bar", "", "", "baz"] Callers that wish to emulate the behavior of strtok(2) more directly should call `string_list_remove_empty_items()` after splitting. To avoid regressions for the new multi-character delimter cases, update t0063 in this patch as well.

refs/packed-backend.c: implement jump lists to avoid excluded pattern(s) When iterating through the `packed-refs` file in order to answer a query like: $ git for-each-ref --exclude=refs/__hidden__ it would be useful to avoid walking over all of the entries in `refs/__hidden__/*` when possible, since we know that the ref-filter code is going to throw them away anyways. In certain circumstances, doing so is possible. The algorithm for doing so is as follows: - For each excluded pattern, find the first record that matches it, and the first record that *doesn't* match it (i.e. the location you'd next want to consider when excluding that pattern). - Sort the set of excluded regions from the previous step in ascending order of the first location within the `packed-refs` file that matches. - Clean up the results from the previous step: discard empty regions, and combine adjacent regions. The set of regions which remains is referred to as the "jump list", and never contains any references which should be included in the result set. Then when iterating through the `packed-refs` file, if `iter->pos` is ever contained in one of the regions from the previous steps, advance `iter->pos` past the end of that region, and continue enumeration. Note that we only perform this optimization when none of the excluded pattern(s) have special meta-characters in them. For a pattern like "refs/foo[ac]", the excluded regions ("refs/fooa", "refs/fooc", and everything underneath them) are not connected. A future implementation that handles this case may split the character class (pretending as if two patterns were excluded: "refs/fooa", and "refs/fooc"). There are a few other gotchas worth considering. First, note that the jump list is sorted, so once we jump past a region, we can avoid considering it (or any regions preceding it) again. The member `jump_pos` is used to track the first next-possible region to jump through. Second, note that the jump list is best-effort, since we do not handle loose references, and because of the meta-character issue above. The jump list may not skip past all references which won't appear in the results, but will never skip over a reference which does appear in the result set. In repositories with a large number of hidden references, the speed-up can be significant.

refs/packed-backend.c: implement jump lists to avoid excluded pattern(s) When iterating through the `packed-refs` file in order to answer a query like: $ git for-each-ref --exclude=refs/__hidden__ it would be useful to avoid walking over all of the entries in `refs/__hidden__/*` when possible, since we know that the ref-filter code is going to throw them away anyways. In certain circumstances, doing so is possible. The algorithm for doing so is as follows: - For each excluded pattern, find the first record that matches it, and the first record that *doesn't* match it (i.e. the location you'd next want to consider when excluding that pattern). - Sort the set of excluded regions from the previous step in ascending order of the first location within the `packed-refs` file that matches. - Clean up the results from the previous step: discard empty regions, and combine adjacent regions. The set of regions which remains is referred to as the "jump list", and never contains any references which should be included in the result set. Then when iterating through the `packed-refs` file, if `iter->pos` is ever contained in one of the regions from the previous steps, advance `iter->pos` past the end of that region, and continue enumeration. Note that we only perform this optimization when none of the excluded pattern(s) have special meta-characters in them. For a pattern like "refs/foo[ac]", the excluded regions ("refs/fooa", "refs/fooc", and everything underneath them) are not connected. A future implementation that handles this case may split the character class (pretending as if two patterns were excluded: "refs/fooa", and "refs/fooc"). There are a few other gotchas worth considering. First, note that the jump list is sorted, so once we jump past a region, we can avoid considering it (or any regions preceding it) again. The member `jump_pos` is used to track the first next-possible region to jump through. Second, note that the jump list is best-effort, since we do not handle loose references, and because of the meta-character issue above. The jump list may not skip past all references which won't appear in the results, but will never skip over a reference which does appear in the result set. In repositories with a large number of hidden references, the speed-up can be significant.

pack-refs: always refresh after taking the lock file When a packed ref is deleted, the whole packed-refs file is rewritten to omit the ref that no longer exists. However if another gc command is running and calls `pack-refs --all` simultaneously, there is a chance that a ref that was just updated lose the newly created commits. Through these steps, losing commits on newly updated refs can be demonstrated: # step 1: compile git without `USE_NSEC` option Some kernel releases do enable it by default while some do not. And if we compile git without `USE_NSEC`, it will be easier demonstrated by the following steps. # step 2: setup a repository and add the first commit git init repo && (cd repo && git config core.logallrefupdates true && git commit --allow-empty -m foo) # step 3: in one terminal, repack the refs repeatedly cd repo && while true do git pack-refs --all done # step 4: in another terminal, simultaneously update the # master with update-ref, and create and delete an # unrelated ref also with update-ref cd repo && while true do us=$(git commit-tree -m foo -p HEAD HEAD^{tree}) && git update-ref refs/heads/newbranch $us && git update-ref refs/heads/master $us && git update-ref -d refs/heads/newbranch && them=$(git rev-parse master) && if test "$them" != "$us" then echo >&2 "lost commit: $us" exit 1 fi # eye candy printf . done Though we have the packed-refs lock file and loose refs lock files to avoid updating conflicts, a ref will lost its newly commits if racy stat-validity of `packed-refs` file happens (which is quite same as the racy-git described in `Documentation/technical/racy-git.txt`), the following specific set of operations demonstrates the problem: 1. Call `pack-refs --all` to pack all the loose refs to packed-refs, and let say the modify time of the packed-refs is DATE_M. 2. Call `update-ref` to update a new commit to master while it is already packed. the old value (let us call it OID_A) remains in the packed-refs file and write the new value (let us call it OID_B) to $GIT_DIR/refs/heads/master. 3. Call `update-ref -d` within the same DATE_M from the 1th step to delete a different ref newbranch which is packed in the packed-refs file. It check newbranch's oid from packed-refs file without locking it. Meanwhile it keeps a snapshot of the packed-refs file in memory and record the file's attributes with the snapshot. The oid of master in the packed-refs's snapshot is OID_A. 4. Call a new `pack-refs --all` to pack the loose refs, the oid of master in packe-refs file is OID_B, and the loose refs $GIT_DIR/refs/heads/master is removed. Let's say the `pack-refs --all` is very quickly done and the new packed-refs file's modify time is still DATE_M, and it has the same file size, even the same inode. 5. 3th step now goes on after checking the newbranch, it begin to rewrite the packed-refs file. After get the lock file of packed-ref file, it checks it's on-disk file attributes with the snapshot, suck as the timestamp, the file size and the inode value. If they are both the same values, and the snapshot is not refreshed. Because the loose ref of master is removed by 4th step, `update-ref -d` will updates the new packed-ref to disk which contains master with the oid OID_A. So now the newly commit OID_B of master is lost. The best path forward is just always refreshing after take the lock file of `packed-refs` file. Traditionally we avoided that because refreshing it implied parsing the whole file. But these days we mmap it, so it really is just an extra open()/mmap() and a quick read of the header. That doesn't seem like an outrageous cost to pay when we're already taking the lock.

pack-refs: always refresh after taking the lock file When a packed ref is deleted, the whole packed-refs file is rewritten to omit the ref that no longer exists. However if another gc command is running and calls `pack-refs --all` simultaneously, there is a chance that a ref that was just updated lose the newly created commits. Through these steps, losing commits on newly updated refs can be demonstrated: # step 1: compile git without `USE_NSEC` option Some kernel releases do enable it by default while some do not. And if we compile git without `USE_NSEC`, it will be easier demonstrated by the following steps. # step 2: setup a repository and add the first commit git init repo && (cd repo && git config core.logallrefupdates true && git commit --allow-empty -m foo) # step 3: in one terminal, repack the refs repeatedly cd repo && while true do git pack-refs --all done # step 4: in another terminal, simultaneously update the # master with update-ref, and create and delete an # unrelated ref also with update-ref cd repo && while true do us=$(git commit-tree -m foo -p HEAD HEAD^{tree}) && git update-ref refs/heads/newbranch $us && git update-ref refs/heads/master $us && git update-ref -d refs/heads/newbranch && them=$(git rev-parse master) && if test "$them" != "$us" then echo >&2 "lost commit: $us" exit 1 fi # eye candy printf . done Though we have the packed-refs lock file and loose refs lock files to avoid updating conflicts, a ref will lost its newly commits if racy stat-validity of `packed-refs` file happens (which is quite same as the racy-git described in `Documentation/technical/racy-git.txt`), the following specific set of operations demonstrates the problem: 1. Call `pack-refs --all` to pack all the loose refs to packed-refs, and let say the modify time of the packed-refs is DATE_M. 2. Call `update-ref` to update a new commit to master while it is already packed. the old value (let us call it OID_A) remains in the packed-refs file and write the new value (let us call it OID_B) to $GIT_DIR/refs/heads/master. 3. Call `update-ref -d` within the same DATE_M from the 1th step to delete a different ref newbranch which is packed in the packed-refs file. It check newbranch's oid from packed-refs file without locking it. Meanwhile it keeps a snapshot of the packed-refs file in memory and record the file's attributes with the snapshot. The oid of master in the packed-refs's snapshot is OID_A. 4. Call a new `pack-refs --all` to pack the loose refs, the oid of master in packe-refs file is OID_B, and the loose refs $GIT_DIR/refs/heads/master is removed. Let's say the `pack-refs --all` is very quickly done and the new packed-refs file's modify time is still DATE_M, and it has the same file size, even the same inode. 5. 3th step now goes on after checking the newbranch, it begin to rewrite the packed-refs file. After get the lock file of packed-ref file, it checks it's on-disk file attributes with the snapshot, suck as the timestamp, the file size and the inode value. If they are both the same values, and the snapshot is not refreshed. Because the loose ref of master is removed by 4th step, `update-ref -d` will updates the new packed-ref to disk which contains master with the oid OID_A. So now the newly commit OID_B of master is lost. The best path forward is just always refreshing after take the lock file of `packed-refs` file. Traditionally we avoided that because refreshing it implied parsing the whole file. But these days we mmap it, so it really is just an extra open()/mmap() and a quick read of the header. That doesn't seem like an outrageous cost to pay when we're already taking the lock.

read_packed_refs(): ensure that references are ordered when read It doesn't actually matter now, because the references are only iterated over to fill the associated `ref_cache`, which itself puts them in the correct order. But we want to get rid of the `ref_cache`, so we want to be able to iterate directly over the `packed-refs` buffer, and then the iteration will need to be ordered correctly. In fact, we already write the `packed-refs` file sorted, but it is possible that other Git clients don't get it right. So let's not assume that a `packed-refs` file is sorted unless it is explicitly declared to be so via a `sorted` trait in its header line. If it is *not* declared to be sorted, then scan quickly through the file to check. If it is found to be out of order, then sort the records into a new memory-only copy. This checking and sorting is done quickly, without parsing the full file contents. However, it needs a little bit of care to avoid reading past the end of the buffer even if the `packed-refs` file is corrupt. Since *we* always write the file correctly sorted, include that trait when we write or rewrite a `packed-refs` file. This means that the scan described in the previous paragraph should only have to be done for `packed-refs` files that were written by older versions of the Git command-line client, or by other clients that haven't yet learned to write the `sorted` trait. If `packed-refs` was already sorted, then (if the system allows it) we can use the mmapped file contents directly. But if the system doesn't allow a file that is currently mmapped to be replaced using `rename()`, then it would be bad for us to keep the file mmapped for any longer than necessary. So, on such systems, always make a copy of the file contents, either as part of the sorting process, or afterwards.

tempfile: auto-allocate tempfiles on heap The previous commit taught the tempfile code to give up ownership over tempfiles that have been renamed or deleted. That makes it possible to use a stack variable like this: struct tempfile t; create_tempfile(&t, ...); ... if (!err) rename_tempfile(&t, ...); else delete_tempfile(&t); But doing it this way has a high potential for creating memory errors. The tempfile we pass to create_tempfile() ends up on a global linked list, and it's not safe for it to go out of scope until we've called one of those two deactivation functions. Imagine that we add an early return from the function that forgets to call delete_tempfile(). With a static or heap tempfile variable, the worst case is that the tempfile hangs around until the program exits (and some functions like setup_shallow_temporary rely on this intentionally, creating a tempfile and then leaving it for later cleanup). But with a stack variable as above, this is a serious memory error: the variable goes out of scope and may be filled with garbage by the time the tempfile code looks at it. Let's see if we can make it harder to get this wrong. Since many callers need to allocate arbitrary numbers of tempfiles, we can't rely on static storage as a general solution. So we need to turn to the heap. We could just ask all callers to pass us a heap variable, but that puts the burden on them to call free() at the right time. Instead, let's have the tempfile code handle the heap allocation _and_ the deallocation (when the tempfile is deactivated and removed from the list). This changes the return value of all of the creation functions. For the cleanup functions (delete and rename), we'll add one extra bit of safety: instead of taking a tempfile pointer, we'll take a pointer-to-pointer and set it to NULL after freeing the object. This makes it safe to double-call functions like delete_tempfile(), as the second call treats the NULL input as a noop. Several callsites follow this pattern. The resulting patch does have a fair bit of noise, as each caller needs to be converted to handle: 1. Storing a pointer instead of the struct itself. 2. Passing the pointer instead of taking the struct address. 3. Handling a "struct tempfile *" return instead of a file descriptor. We could play games to make this less noisy. For example, by defining the tempfile like this: struct tempfile { struct heap_allocated_part_of_tempfile { int fd; ...etc } *actual_data; } Callers would continue to have a "struct tempfile", and it would be "active" only when the inner pointer was non-NULL. But that just makes things more awkward in the long run. There aren't that many callers, so we can simply bite the bullet and adjust all of them.

Note that the pre-dc39e09942 code still had to *read* the whole `packed-refs` file to determine that the rewrite could be skipped, so the performance for the cases that the write could be elided was `O(N)` in the number of packed references both before and after dc39e09942. But after that commit the constant factor increased. This commit reimplements the optimization of eliding unnecessary `packed-refs` rewrites. That, plus the fact that since cfa2e29c34 (packed_ref_store: get rid of the `ref_cache` entirely, 2017-03-17) we don't necessarily have to read the whole `packed-refs` file at all, means that deletes of one or a few loose references can now be done with `O(n lg N)` effort, where `n` is the number of loose references being deleted and `N` is the total number of packed references.

packed-backend: remove stub BUG(...) functions Remove the stub BUG(...) functions previously used by the "struct ref_storage_be refs_be_packed" backend. We never call any functions in the packed backend by using it as a "normal" primary ref store, instead we'll always initialize a "files" backend ref-store. It will then via the "packed_ref_store" member of "struct files_ref_store" call selected functions in the "packed" backend, and we'll in addition call others via wrappers in refs.c. So while these would arguably give us *slightly* more meaningful error messages we'll NULL the missing members in the initializer anyway, so we'll reliably get a segfault if we're ever changing the backend and having it call something it doesn't have. So there's no need for this verbose boilerplate, and as shown in a subsequent commit it might even lead to some confusion about the packed backend being a "real" backend. Let's make it clear that it's not. As an aside, this also fixes a warning emitted by SunCC in at least versions 12.5 and 12.6 of Oracle Developer Studio: "refs/packed-backend.c", line 1599: warning: Function has no return statement : packed_create_symref "refs/packed-backend.c", line 1606: warning: Function has no return statement : packed_rename_ref) "refs/packed-backend.c", line 1613: warning: Function has no return statement : packed_copy_ref "refs/packed-backend.c", line 1648: warning: Function has no return statement : packed_create_reflog Signed-off-by: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <avarab@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
