This reverts commit 6f924265a0, which
started to require that we have an executable git available in order
to say "make clean", which gives us a chicken-and-egg problem.
Having to have Git installed, or be in a repository, in order to be
able to run an optional "doc-diff" tool is fine. Requiring either
in order to run "make clean" is a different story.

For the reasons explained in the "commit-graph write: add progress
output" commit leading up to this one, emit progress on "commit-graph
verify". Since e0fd51e1d7 ("fsck: verify commit-graph", 2018-06-27)
"git fsck" has called this command if core.commitGraph=true, but
there's been no progress output to indicate that anything was
different. Now there is (on my tiny dotfiles.git repository):
$ git -c core.commitGraph=true -C ~/ fsck
Checking object directories: 100% (256/256), done.
Checking objects: 100% (2821/2821), done.

Verifying commits in commit graph: 100% (867/867), done.
And on a larger repository, such as the 2015-04-03-1M-git.git test
repository:
$ time git -c core.commitGraph=true -C ~/g/2015-04-03-1M-git/ commit-graph verify
Verifying commits in commit graph: 100% (1000447/1000447), done.
real 0m7.813s
[...]
Since the "commit-graph verify" subcommand is never called from "git
gc", we don't have to worry about passing some some "report_progress"
progress variable around for this codepath.

Before this change the "commit-graph write" command didn't report any
progress. On my machine this command takes more than 10 seconds to
write the graph for linux.git, and around 1m30s on the
2015-04-03-1M-git.git[1] test repository (a test case for a large
monorepository).
Furthermore, since the gc.writeCommitGraph setting was added in
d5d5d7b641 ("gc: automatically write commit-graph files", 2018-06-27),
there was no indication at all from a "git gc" run that anything was
different. This why one of the progress bars being added here uses
start_progress() instead of start_delayed_progress(), so that it's
guaranteed to be seen. E.g. on my tiny 867 commit dotfiles.git
repository:
$ git -c gc.writeCommitGraph=true gc
Enumerating objects: 2821, done.
[...]
Computing commit graph generation numbers: 100% (867/867), done.
On larger repositories, such as linux.git the delayed progress bar(s)
will kick in, and we'll show what's going on instead of, as was
previously happening, printing nothing while we write the graph:
$ git -c gc.writeCommitGraph=true gc
[...]
Annotating commits in commit graph: 1565573, done.
Computing commit graph generation numbers: 100% (782484/782484), done.
Note that here we don't show "Finding commits for commit graph", this
is because under "git gc" we seed the search with the commit
references in the repository, and that set is too small to show any
progress, but would e.g. on a smaller repo such as git.git with
--stdin-commits:
$ git rev-list --all | git -c gc.writeCommitGraph=true write --stdin-commits
Finding commits for commit graph: 100% (162576/162576), done.
Computing commit graph generation numbers: 100% (162576/162576), done.
With --stdin-packs we don't show any estimation of how much is left to
do. This is because we might be processing more than one pack. We
could be less lazy here and show progress, either by detecting that
we're only processing one pack, or by first looping over the packs to
discover how many commits they have. I don't see the point in doing
that work. So instead we get (on 2015-04-03-1M-git.git):
$ echo pack-<HASH>.idx | git -c gc.writeCommitGraph=true --exec-path=$PWD commit-graph write --stdin-packs
Finding commits for commit graph: 13064614, done.
Annotating commits in commit graph: 3001341, done.
Computing commit graph generation numbers: 100% (1000447/1000447), done.
No GC mode uses --stdin-packs. It's what they use at Microsoft to
manually compute the generation numbers for their collection of large
packs which are never coalesced.
The reason we need a "report_progress" variable passed down from "git
gc" is so that we don't report this output when we're running in the
process "git gc --auto" detaches from the terminal.
Since we write the commit graph from the "git gc" process itself (as
opposed to what we do with say the "git repack" phase), we'd end up
writing the output to .git/gc.log and reporting it to the user next
time as part of the "The last gc run reported the following[...]"
error, see 329e6e8794 ("gc: save log from daemonized gc --auto and
print it next time", 2015-09-19).
So we must keep track of whether or not we're running in that
demonized mode, and if so print no progress.
See [2] and subsequent replies for a discussion of an approach not
taken in compute_generation_numbers(). I.e. we're saying "Computing
commit graph generation numbers", even though on an established
history we're mostly skipping over all the work we did in the
past. This is similar to the white lie we tell in the "Writing
objects" phase (not all are objects being written).
Always showing progress is considered more important than
accuracy. I.e. on a repository like 2015-04-03-1M-git.git we'd hang
for 6 seconds with no output on the second "git gc" if no changes were
made to any objects in the interim if we'd take the approach in [2].

Aliases can only contain non-alias git commands and their arguments,
not other user-defined aliases. Resolving further (nested) aliases
is prevented by breaking the loop after the first alias was
processed. Git then fails with a command-not-found error.
Allow resolving nested aliases by not breaking the loop in
run_argv() after the first alias was processed. Instead, continue
the loop until `handle_alias()` fails, which means that there are no
further aliases that can be processed. Prevent looping aliases by
storing substituted commands in `cmd_list` and checking if a command
has been substituted previously.
While we're at it, fix a styling issue just below the added code.

Currently the 'compute_assignment()' function may read memory out
of bounds, even if used correctly. Namely this happens when we only
have one column. In that case we try to calculate the initial
minimum cost using '!j1' as column in the reduction transfer code.
That in turn causes us to try and get the cost from column 1 in the
cost matrix, which does not exist, and thus results in an out of
bounds memory read.
In the original paper [1], the example code initializes that minimum
cost to "infinite". We could emulate something similar by setting the
minimum cost to INT_MAX, which would result in the same minimum cost
as the current algorithm, as we'd always go into the if condition at
least once, except when we only have one column, and column_count thus
equals 1.
If column_count does equal 1, the condition in the loop would always
be false, and we'd end up with a minimum of INT_MAX, which may lead to
integer overflows later in the algorithm.
For a column count of 1, we however do not even really need to go
through the whole algorithm. A column count of 1 means that there's
no possible assignments, and we can just zero out the column2row and
row2column arrays, and return early from the function, while keeping
the reduction transfer part of the function the same as it is
currently.
Another solution would be to just not call the 'compute_assignment()'
function from the range diff code in this case, however it's better to
make the compute_assignment function more robust, so future callers
don't run into this potential problem.
Note that the test only fails under valgrind on Linux, but the same
command has been reported to segfault on Mac OS.

Add several test functions to make working with various hash-related
values easier.
Add test_oid_init, which loads common hash-related constants and
placeholder object IDs from the newly added files in t/oid-info.
Provide values for these constants for both SHA-1 and SHA-256.
Add test_oid_cache, which accepts data on standard input in the form of
hash-specific key-value pairs that can be looked up later, using the
same format as the files in t/oid-info. Document this format in a
t/oid-info/README directory so that it's easier to use in the future.
Add test_oid, which is used to specify look up a per-hash value
(produced on standard output) based on the key specified as its
argument. Usually the data to be looked up will be a hash-related
constant (such as the size of the hash in binary or hexadecimal), a
well-known or placeholder object ID (such as the all-zeros object ID or
one consisting of "deadbeef" repeated), or something similar. For these
reasons, test_oid will usually be used within a command substitution.
Consequently, redirect the error output to standard error, since
otherwise it will not be displayed.
Add test_detect_hash, which currently only detects SHA-1, and
test_set_hash, which can be used to set a different hash algorithm for
test purposes. In the future, test_detect_hash will learn to actually
detect the hash depending on how the testsuite is to be run.
Use the local keyword within these functions to avoid overwriting other
shell variables. We have had a test balloon in place for a couple of
releases to catch shells that don't have this keyword and have not
received any reports of failure. Note that the varying usages of local
used here are supported by all common open-source shells supporting the
local keyword.
Test these new functions as part of t0000, which also serves to
demonstrate basic usage of them. In addition, add documentation on how
to format the lookup data and how to use the test functions.
Implement two basic lookup charts, one for common invalid or synthesized
object IDs, and one for various facts about the hash function in use.
Provide versions of the data for both SHA-1 and SHA-256.
Since we use shell variables for storage, names used for lookup can
currently consist only of shell identifier characters. If this is a
problem in the future, we can hash the names before use.

In commit b00bf1c9a8 ("git-rebase: make --allow-empty-message the
default", 2018-06-27), several arguments were given for transplanting
empty commits without halting and asking the user for confirmation on
each commit. These arguments were incomplete because the logic clearly
assumed the only cases under consideration were transplanting of commits
with empty messages (see the comment about "There are two sources for
commits with empty messages). It didn't discuss or even consider
rewords, squashes, etc. where the user is explicitly asked for a new
commit message and provides an empty one. (My bad, I totally should
have thought about that at the time, but just didn't.)
Rewords and squashes are significantly different, though, as described
by SZEDER:
Let's suppose you start an interactive rebase, choose a commit to
squash, save the instruction sheet, rebase fires up your editor, and
then you notice that you mistakenly chose the wrong commit to
squash. What do you do, how do you abort?
Before [that commit] you could clear the commit message, exit the
editor, and then rebase would say "Aborting commit due to empty
commit message.", and you get to run 'git rebase --abort', and start
over.
But [since that commit, ...] saving the commit message as is would
let rebase continue and create a bunch of unnecessary objects, and
then you would have to use the reflog to return to the pre-rebase
state.
Also, he states:
The instructions in the commit message template, which is shown for
'reword' and 'squash', too, still say...
# Please enter the commit message for your changes. Lines starting
# with '#' will be ignored, and an empty message aborts the commit.
These are sound arguments that when editing commit messages during a
sequencer operation, that if the commit message is empty then the
operation should halt and ask the user to correct. The arguments in
commit b00bf1c9a8 (referenced above) still apply when transplanting
previously created commits with empty commit messages, so the sequencer
should not halt for those.
Furthermore, all rationale so far applies equally for cherry-pick as for
rebase. Therefore, make the code default to --allow-empty-message when
transplanting an existing commit, and to default to halting when the
user is asked to edit a commit message and provides an empty one -- for
both rebase and cherry-pick.

It's annoying not to be able to put comments and empty lines in the

Implement that, and document what version of Git this was changed in,

Change the implementation of the skipList feature to use oidset
instead of oid_array to store SHA-1s for later lookup.
This list is parsed once on startup by fsck, fetch-pack or
receive-pack depending on the *.skipList config in use. I.e. only once
per invocation, but note that for "clone --recurse-submodules" each
submodule will re-parse the list, in addition to the main project, and
it will be re-parsed when checking .gitmodules blobs, see
fb16287719 ("fsck: check skiplist for object in fsck_blob()",
2018-06-27).
Memory usage is a bit higher, but we don't need to keep track of the
sort order anymore. Embed the oidset into struct fsck_options to make
its ownership clear (no hidden sharing) and avoid unnecessary pointer
indirection.

The buffer is unlikely to contain a NUL character, so printing its
contents using %s in a die() format is unsafe (detected with ASan).
Use an idiomatic strbuf_getline() loop instead, which ensures the buffer
is always NUL-terminated, supports CRLF files as well, accepts files
without a newline after the last line, supports any hash length
automatically, and is shorter.
This fixes a bug where emitting an error about an invalid line on say
line 1 would continue printing subsequent lines, and usually continue
into uninitialized memory.

Add a plain performance test for "fsck". This test will not be used to
/ referred to in any upcoming commit of mine in this series, but
having a simple test for fsck performance is valuable, so let's add it
while we're at it.

Abbreviating the SHA-1s in the skipList input has never worked, but
the documentation hasn't unambiguously stated that this is an error,
and there was no test for it.
Let's fix both since it would be easy for some later refactoring
e.g. switch to accidentally switch to a looser OID parsing function,
causing the tests before this change to pass, but for older versions
of git to be incompatible with the new skipList format.

There is currently no comment syntax for the fsck.skipList, this isn't
really by design, and it would be nice to have support for comments.
Document that this doesn't work, and test for how this errors
out. These tests reveal a current bug, if there's invalid input the
output will emit some of the next line, and then go into uninitialized
memory. This is fixed in a subsequent change.

Ever since the skipList support was first added in cd94c6f91 ("fsck:
git receive-pack: support excluding objects from fsck'ing",
2015-06-22) the documentation for the format has that the file is a
sorted list of object names.
Thus, anyone using the feature would have thought the list needed to
be sorted. E.g. I recently in conjunction with my fetch.fsck.*
implementation in 1362df0d41 ("fetch: implement fetch.fsck.*",
2018-07-27) wrote some code to ship a skipList, and went out of my way
to sort it.
Doing so seems intuitive, since it contains fixed-width records, and
has no support for comments, so one might expect it to be binary
searched in-place on-disk.
However, as documented here this was never a requirement, so let's
change the documentation. Since this is a file format change let's
also document what was said about this in the past, so e.g. someone
like myself reading the new docs can see this never needed to be
sorted ("why do I have all this code to sort this thing...").

The recent 65a836fa6b ("fsck: add stress tests for fsck.skipList",
2018-07-27) added various stress tests for odd invocations of
fsck.skipList, but didn't tests for some very simple ones, such as
asserting that providing to skipList with a bad commit causes fsck to
exit with a non-zero exit code. Add such a test.

Several fsck tests used the exact same git-hash-object output, but had
copy/pasted that part of the setup code. Let's instead do that setup
once and use it in subsequent tests.

If passed both --no-deref and --stdin, update-ref would error out with a
general usage message that did not at all suggest these options were
incompatible. The manpage for update-ref did suggest through its
synopsis line that --no-deref and --stdin were incompatible, but it sadly
also incorrectly suggested that -d and --no-deref were incompatible. So
the help around the --no-deref option is buggy in a few ways.
The --stdin option did provide a different mechanism for avoiding
dereferencing symbolic-refs: adding a line reading
option no-deref
before every other directive in the input. (Technically, if the user
wants to do the extra work of first determining which refs they want to
update or delete are symbolic, then they only need to put the extra
"option no-deref" lines before the updates of those refs. But in some
cases, that's more work than just adding the "option no-deref" before
every other directive.)
It's easier to allow the user to just pass --no-deref along with --stdin
in order to tell update-ref that the user doesn't want any symbolic ref
to be dereferenced. It also makes the update-ref documentation simpler.
Implement that, and update the documentation to match.

The test 'switching trees does not invalidate shared index' in
't0090-cache-tree.sh' is about verifying the behaviour of the split
index feature, therefore it should be in full control of when index
splitting is performed, like all the tests in 't1700-split-index.sh'.
Unset GIT_TEST_SPLIT_INDEX for this test to avoid unintended random
index splitting.

Drop that 'grep' from the pipeline, and let 'sed' take over its
