Commit 2f6b1eb794 ("cache API: add a "INDEX_STATE_INIT" macro/function,
add release_index()", 2023-01-12) mistakenly added some initialization
of a member of unpack_trees_options that was intended to be
internal-only. This initialization should be done within
update_sparsity() instead.
Note that while o->result is mostly meant for unpack_trees() and
update_sparsity() mostly operates without o->result,
check_ok_to_remove() does consult it so we need to ensure it is properly
initialized.

struct unpack_trees_options has the following field and comment:
struct pattern_list *pl; /* for internal use */
Despite the internal-use comment, commit e091228e17 ("sparse-checkout:
update working directory in-process", 2019-11-21) starting setting this
field from an external caller. At the time, the only way around that
would have been to modify unpack_trees() to take an extra pattern_list
argument, and there's a lot of callers of that function. However, when
we split update_sparsity() off as a separate function, with
sparse-checkout being the sole caller, the need to update other callers
went away. Fix this API problem by adding a pattern_list argument to
update_sparsity() and stop setting the internal o.pl field directly.

When the "repo" member was added to "the_index" in [1] the
repo_read_index() was made to populate it, but the unpopulated
"the_index" variable didn't get the same treatment.
Let's do that in initialize_the_repository() when we set it up, and
likewise for all of the current callers initialized an empty "struct
index_state".
This simplifies code that needs to deal with "the_index" or a custom
"struct index_state", we no longer need to second-guess this part of
the "index_state" deep in the stack. A recent example of such
second-guessing is the "istate->repo ? istate->repo : the_repository"
code in [2]. We can now simply use "istate->repo".
We're doing this by making use of the INDEX_STATE_INIT() macro (and
corresponding function) added in [3], which now have mandatory "repo"
arguments.
Because we now call index_state_init() in repository.c's
initialize_the_repository() we don't need to handle the case where we
have a "repo->index" whose "repo" member doesn't match the "repo"
we're setting up, i.e. the "Complete the double-reference" code in
repo_read_index() being altered here. That logic was originally added
in [1], and was working around the lack of what we now have in
initialize_the_repository().
For "fsmonitor-settings.c" we can remove the initialization of a NULL
"r" argument to "the_repository". This was added back in [4], and was
needed at the time for callers that would pass us the "r" from an
"istate->repo". Before this change such a change to
"fsmonitor-settings.c" would segfault all over the test suite (e.g. in
t0002-gitfile.sh).
This change has wider eventual implications for
"fsmonitor-settings.c". The reason the other lazy loading behavior in
it is required (starting with "if (!r->settings.fsmonitor) ..." is
because of the previously passed "r" being "NULL".
I have other local changes on top of this which move its configuration
reading to "prepare_repo_settings()" in "repo-settings.c", as we could
now start to rely on it being called for our "r". But let's leave all
of that for now, and narrowly remove this particular part of the
lazy-loading.

Hopefully in some not so distant future, we'll get advantages from always
initializing the "repo" member of the "struct index_state". To make
that easier let's introduce an initialization macro & function.
The various ad-hoc initialization of the structure can then be changed
over to it, and we can remove the various "0" assignments in
discard_index() in favor of calling index_state_init() at the end.
While not strictly necessary, let's also change the CALLOC_ARRAY() of
various "struct index_state *" to use an ALLOC_ARRAY() followed by
index_state_init() instead.
We're then adding the release_index() function and converting some
callers (including some of these allocations) over to it if they
either won't need to use their "struct index_state" again, or are just
about to call index_state_init().

Recent commits such as bf0a6b65fc (builtin/multi-pack-index.c: let
parse-options parse subcommands, 2022-08-19) converted a few functions
to match our usual argc/argv/prefix conventions, but the prefix argument
remains unused.
However, there is a good use for it: they should pass it to their own
parse_options() functions, where it may be used to adjust the value of
any filename options. In all but one of these functions, there's no
behavior change, since they don't use OPT_FILENAME. But this is an
actual fix for one option, which you can see by modifying the test suite
like so:
diff --git a/t/t5326-multi-pack-bitmaps.sh b/t/t5326-multi-pack-bitmaps.sh

I'd emphasize that this wasn't broken by bf0a6b65fc; it has been broken
all along, because the sub-function never got to see the prefix. It is
that commit which is actually enabling us to fix it (and which also
brought attention to the problem because it triggers -Wunused-parameter!)
The other functions changed here don't use OPT_FILENAME at all. In their
cases this isn't fixing anything visible, but it's following the usual
pattern and future-proofing them against somebody adding new options and
being surprised.
I didn't include a test for the one visible case above. We don't
generally test routine parse-options behavior for individual options.
The challenge here was finding the problem, and now that this has been
done, it's not likely to regress. Likewise, we could apply the patch
above to cover it "for free" but it makes reading the rest of the test
unnecessarily complicated.

'git sparse-checkout' parses its subcommands with a couple of if
statements. parse-options has just learned to parse subcommands, so
let's use that facility instead, with the benefits of shorter code,
handling missing or unknown subcommands, and listing subcommands for
Bash completion.
Note that some of the functions implementing each subcommand only
accept the 'argc' and '**argv' parameters, so add a (unused) '*prefix'

When modifying the sparse-checkout definition, the sparse-checkout
builtin calls update_sparsity() to modify the SKIP_WORKTREE bits of all
cache entries in the index. Before, we needed the index to be fully
expanded in order to ensure we had the full list of files necessary that
match the new patterns.
Insert a call to reset_sparse_directories() that expands sparse
directories that are within the new pattern list, but only far enough
that every necessary file path now exists as a cache entry. The
remaining logic within update_sparsity() will modify the SKIP_WORKTREE
bits appropriately.
This allows us to disable command_requires_full_index within the
sparse-checkout builtin. Add tests that demonstrate that we are not
expanding to a full index unnecessarily.
We can see the improved performance in the p2000 test script:
Test HEAD~1 HEAD
------------------------------------------------------------------------
2000.24: git ... (sparse-v3) 2.14(1.55+0.58) 1.57(1.03+0.53) -26.6%
2000.25: git ... (sparse-v4) 2.20(1.62+0.57) 1.58(0.98+0.59) -28.2%
These reductions of 26-28% are small compared to most examples, but the
time is dominated by writing a new copy of the base repository to the
worktree and then deleting it again. The fact that the previous index
expansion was such a large portion of the time is telling how important
it is to complete this sparse index integration.

A future change will present a temporary, in-memory mode where the index
can both contain sparse directory entries but also not be completely
collapsed to the smallest possible sparse directories. This will be
necessary for modifying the sparse-checkout definition while using a
sparse index.
For now, convert the single-bit member 'sparse_index' in 'struct
index_state' to be a an 'enum sparse_index_mode' with three modes:
* INDEX_EXPANDED (0): No sparse directories exist. This is always the
case for repositories that do not use cone-mode sparse-checkout.
* INDEX_COLLAPSED: Sparse directories may exist. Files outside the
sparse-checkout cone are reduced to sparse directory entries whenever
possible.
* INDEX_PARTIALLY_SPARSE: Sparse directories may exist. Some file
entries outside the sparse-checkout cone may exist. Running
convert_to_sparse() may further reduce those files to sparse directory
entries.
The main reason to store this extra information is to allow
convert_to_sparse() to short-circuit when the index is already in
INDEX_EXPANDED mode but to actually do the necessary work when in
INDEX_PARTIALLY_SPARSE mode.
The INDEX_PARTIALLY_SPARSE mode will be used in an upcoming change.

it.
For the case of write_commit_graph_file() refactoring the code to free
the "lock_name" after we were done using the "struct lock_file lk"
would have made the control flow more complex. Luckily we can free the
"lock_file" right after the hold_lock_file_for_update() call, if it
makes use of "path" at all it'll have copied its contents to a "struct
strbuf" of its own.

In sparse-checkout add/set under cone mode, the arguments passed are
supposed to be directories rather than gitignore-style patterns.
However, given the amount of effort spent in the manual discussing
patterns, it is easy for users to assume they need to pass patterns such
as
/foo/*
or
!/bar/*/
or perhaps they really do ignore the directory rule and specify a
random gitignore-style pattern like
*.c
To help catch such mistakes, throw an error if any of the positional
arguments:
* starts with any of '/!'
* contains any of '*?[]'
Inform users they can pass --skip-checks if they have a directory that
really does have such special characters in its name. (We exclude '\'
because of sparse-checkout's special handling of backslashes; see
the MINGW test in t1091.46.)

The set and add subcommands accept multiple positional arguments.
The meaning of these arguments differs slightly in the two modes:
Cone mode only accepts directories. If given a file, it would
previously treat it as a directory, causing not just the file itself to
be included but all sibling files as well -- likely against users'
expectations. Throw an error if the specified path is a file in the
index. Provide a --skip-checks argument to allow users to override
(e.g. for the case when the given path IS a directory on another
branch).
Non-cone mode accepts general gitignore patterns. There are many
reasons to avoid this mode, but one possible reason to use it instead of
cone mode: to be able to select individual files within a directory.
However, if a file is passed to set/add in non-cone mode, you won't be
selecting a single file, you'll be selecting a file with the same name
in any directory. Thus users will likely want to prefix any paths they
specify with a leading '/' character; warn users if the patterns they
specify exactly name a file because it means they are likely missing
such a leading slash.

In cone mode, non-option arguments to set & add are clearly paths, and
as such, we should pay attention to prefix.
In non-cone mode, it is not clear that folks intend to provide paths
since the inputs are gitignore-style patterns. Paying attention to
prefix would prevent folks from doing things like
git sparse-checkout add /.gitattributes
git sparse-checkout add '/toplevel-dir/*'
In fact, the former will result in
fatal: '/.gitattributes' is outside repository...
while the later will result in
fatal: Invalid path '/toplevel-dir': No such file or directory
despite the fact that both are valid gitignore-style patterns that would
select real files if added to the sparse-checkout file. This might lead
people to just use the path without the leading slash, potentially
resulting in them grabbing files with the same name throughout the
directory hierarchy contrary to their expectations. See also [1] and
[2]. Adding prefix seems to just be fraught with error; so for now
simply throw an error in non-cone mode when sparse-checkout set/add are
run from a subdirectory.

commit f2e3a218e8 ("sparse-checkout: enable `set` to initialize
sparse-checkout mode", 2021-12-14) made the `set` command able to
initialize sparse-checkout mode, but it also had to function when
sparse-checkout mode was already setup and the user just wanted to
change the sparsity paths. So, if the user passed --cone or --no-cone,
then we should override the current setting, but if they didn't pass
either, we should use whatever the current cone mode setting is.
Unfortunately, there was a small error in the logic in that it would not
set the in-memory cone mode value (core_sparse_checkout_one) when
--no-cone was specified, but since it did set the config setting on
disk, any subsequent git invocation would correctly get non-cone mode.
As such, the error did not previously matter. However, a subsequent
commit will add some logic that depends on core_sparse_checkout_cone
being set to the correct mode, so make sure it is set consistently with
the config values we will be writing to disk.

sparse-checkout: create leading directory
`git sparse-checkout set/init` enables worktree-specific
configuration[*] by setting extensions.worktreeConfig=true, but neglects
to perform the additional necessary bookkeeping of relocating
`core.bare=true` and `core.worktree` from $GIT_COMMON_DIR/config to
$GIT_COMMON_DIR/config.worktree, as documented in git-worktree.txt. As a
result of this oversight, these settings, which are nonsensical for
secondary worktrees, can cause Git commands to incorrectly consider a
worktree bare (in the case of `core.bare`) or operate on the wrong
worktree (in the case of `core.worktree`). Fix this problem by taking
advantage of the recently-added init_worktree_config() which enables
`extensions.worktreeConfig` and takes care of necessary bookkeeping.
While at it, for backward-compatibility reasons, also stop upgrading the
repository format to "1" since doing so is (unintentionally) not
required to take advantage of `extensions.worktreeConfig`, as explained
by 11664196ac ("Revert "check_repository_format_gently(): refuse
extensions for old repositories"", 2020-07-15).
[*] The main reason to use worktree-specific config for the
sparse-checkout builtin was to avoid enabling sparse-checkout patterns
in one and causing a loss of files in another. If a worktree does not
have a sparse-checkout patterns file, then the sparse-checkout logic
will not kick in on that worktree.

When creating the sparse-checkout file, Git does not create the leading
directory, "$GIT_DIR/info", if it does not exist. This causes problems
if the repository does not have that directory. Therefore, ensure that
the leading directory is created.
This is the only "open" in builtin/sparse-checkout.c that does not have
a leading directory check. (The other one in write_patterns_and_update()
does.)
Note that the test needs to explicitly specify a template when running
"git init" because the default template used in the tests has the
"info/" directory included.

When in cone mode sparse-checkout, it is unclear how 'git

behavior to fail with an error message about the existing patterns.
Also, all cone mode patterns start with a '/' character, so add that
restriction. This is necessary for our example test 'cone mode: warn on
bad pattern', but also requires modifying the example sparse-checkout
file we use to test the warnings related to recognizing cone mode
patterns.
This error checking would cause a failure further down the test script
because of a test that adds non-cone mode patterns without cleaning them
up. Perform that cleanup as part of the test now.

1) It would delete nearly all files in the first step, then
restore them in the second. That was poor performance and
forced unnecessary rebuilds.
2) The two-step process resulted in two progress bars, which
was suboptimal from a UI point of view for wrappers that
invoked both of these commands but only exposed a single
command to their end users.
3) With cone mode, the first step would delete nearly all
ignored files everywhere, because everything was considered
to be outside of the specified sparsity paths. (The user was
not allowed to specify any sparsity paths in the `init` step.)
Avoid these problems by teaching `set` to understand the extra
parameters that `init` takes and performing any necessary initialization
if not already in a sparse checkout.

`init` has some code for handling updates to either cone mode or
the sparse-index setting. We would like to be able to reuse this
elsewhere, namely in `set` and `reapply`. Split this function out,
and make it slightly more general so it can handle being called from
the new callers.

We intentionally added --stdin as an option to `sparse-checkout set`,
but didn't intend for --no-stdin to be permitted as well.

Most sparse-checkout subcommands (list, add, reapply) only make sense
when already in a sparse state. Add a quick check that will error out
early if this is not the case.
Also document with a comment why we do not exit early in `disable` even
when core.sparseCheckout starts as false.

sparse_checkout_set() was reused by sparse_checkout_add() with the only
difference being a single parameter being passed to that function.
However, we would like sparse_checkout_set() to do the same work that
sparse_checkout_init() does if sparse checkouts are not already enabled.
To facilitate this transition, give each mode their own copy of the
function. This does not introduce any behavioral changes; that will
come in a subsequent patch.

add_patterns_from_input() has relied on a global variable,
set_opts.use_stdin, which has been used by both the `set` and `add`
subcommands of sparse-checkout. Once we introduce an
add_opts.use_stdin, the hardcoding of set_opts.use_stdin will be
incorrect. Pass the value as function parameter instead to allow us to
make subsequent changes.

When changing the scope of a sparse-checkout using cone mode, we might
have some tracked directories go out of scope. The current logic removes
the tracked files from within those directories, but leaves the ignored
files within those directories. This is a bit unexpected to users who
have given input to Git saying they don't need those directories
anymore.
This is something that is new to the cone mode pattern type: the user
has explicitly said "I want these directories and _not_ those
directories." The typical sparse-checkout patterns more generally apply
to "I want files with with these patterns" so it is natural to leave
ignored files as they are. This focus on directories in cone mode
provides us an opportunity to change the behavior.
Leaving these ignored files in the sparse directories makes it
impossible to gain performance benefits in the sparse index. When we
track into these directories, we need to know if the files are ignored
or not, which might depend on the _tracked_ .gitignore file(s) within
the sparse directory. This depends on the indexed version of the file,
so the sparse directory must be expanded.
We must take special care to look for untracked, non-ignored files in
these directories before deleting them. We do not want to delete any
meaningful work that the users were doing in those directories and
perhaps forgot to add and commit before switching sparse-checkout
definitions. Since those untracked files might be code files that
generated ignored build output, also do not delete any ignored files
from these directories in that case. The users can recover their state
by resetting their sparse-checkout definition to include that directory
and continue. Alternatively, they can see the warning that is presented
and delete the directory themselves to regain the performance they
expect.
By deleting the sparse directories when changing scope (or running 'git
sparse-checkout reapply') we regain these performance benefits as if the
repository was in a clean state.
Since these ignored files are frequently build output or helper files
from IDEs, the users should not need the files now that the tracked
files are removed. If the tracked files reappear, then they will have
newer timestamps than the build artifacts, so the artifacts will need to
be regenerated anyway.
Use the sparse-index as a data structure in order to find the sparse
directories that can be safely deleted. Re-expand the index to a full
one if it was full before.

We use 'git sparse-checkout init --cone --sparse-index' to toggle the
sparse-index feature. It makes sense to also disable it when running
'git sparse-checkout disable'. This is particularly important because it
removes the extensions.sparseIndex config option, allowing other tools
to use this Git repository again.
This does mean that 'git sparse-checkout init' will not re-enable the
sparse-index feature, even if it was previously enabled.
While testing this feature, I noticed that the sparse-index was not
being written on the first run, but by a second. This was caught by the
call to 'test-tool read-cache --table'. This requires adjusting some
assignments to core_apply_sparse_checkout and pl.use_cone_patterns in
the sparse_checkout_init() logic.

The sparse index extension is used to signal that index writes should be
in sparse mode. This was only updated using GIT_TEST_SPARSE_INDEX=1.
Add a '--[no-]sparse-index' option to 'git sparse-checkout init' that
specifies if the sparse index should be used. It also updates the index
to use the correct format, either way. Add a warning in the
documentation that the use of a repository extension might reduce
compatibility with third-party tools. 'git sparse-checkout init' already
sets extension.worktreeConfig, which places most sparse-checkout users
outside of the scope of most third-party tools.
Update t1092-sparse-checkout-compatibility.sh to use this CLI instead of
GIT_TEST_SPARSE_INDEX=1.

As we modify the sparse-checkout definition, we perform index operations
on a pattern_list that only exists in-memory. This allows easy backing
out in case the index update fails.
However, if the index write itself cares about the sparse-checkout
pattern set, we need access to that in-memory copy. Place a pointer to
a 'struct pattern_list' in the index so we can access this on-demand.
This will be used in the next change which uses the sparse-checkout
definition to filter out directories that are outside the sparse cone.
