Taylor Blau 197443e80a repack: don't remove .keep packs with --pack-kept-objects
`git repack` supports a `--pack-kept-objects` flag which more or less
translates to whether or not we pass `--honor-pack-keep` down to `git
pack-objects` when assembling a new pack.

This behavior has existed since ee34a2bead (repack: add
`repack.packKeptObjects` config var, 2014-03-03). In that commit, the
documentation was extended to say:

    [...] Note that we still do not delete `.keep` packs after
    `pack-objects` finishes.

Unfortunately, this is not the case when `--pack-kept-objects` is
combined with a `--geometric` repack. When doing a geometric repack, we
include `.keep` packs when enumerating available packs only when
`pack_kept_objects` is set.

So this all works fine when `--no-pack-kept-objects` (or similar) is
given. Kept packs are excluded from the geometric roll-up, so when we go
to delete redundant packs (with `-d`), no `.keep` packs appear "below
the split" in our geometric progression.

But when `--pack-kept-objects` is given, things can go awry. Namely,
when a kept pack is included in the list of packs tracked by the
`pack_geometry` struct *and* part of the pack roll-up, we will delete
the `.keep` pack when we shouldn't.

Note that this *doesn't* result in object corruption, since the `.keep`
pack's objects are still present in the new pack. But the `.keep` pack
itself is removed, which violates our promise from back in ee34a2bead.

But there's more. Because `repack` computes the geometric roll-up
independently from selecting which packs belong in a MIDX (with
`--write-midx`), this can lead to odd behavior. Consider when a `.keep`
pack appears below the geometric split (ie., its objects will be part of
the new pack we generate).

We'll write a MIDX containing the new pack along with the existing
`.keep` pack. But because the `.keep` pack appears below the geometric
split line, we'll (incorrectly) try to remove it. While this doesn't
corrupt the repository, it does cause us to remove the MIDX we just
wrote, since removing that pack would invalidate the new MIDX.

Funny enough, this behavior became far less noticeable after e4d0c11c04
(repack: respect kept objects with '--write-midx -b', 2021-12-20), which
made `pack_kept_objects` be enabled by default only when we were writing
a non-MIDX bitmap.

But e4d0c11c04 didn't resolve this bug, it just made it harder to notice
unless callers explicitly passed `--pack-kept-objects`.

The solution is to avoid trying to remove `.keep` packs during
`--geometric` repacks, even when they appear below the geometric split
line, which is the approach this patch implements.

Git - fast, scalable, distributed revision control system

Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals.

Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses, compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.

Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.

Many Git online resources are accessible from https://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools.

See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see Documentation/giteveryday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and Documentation/git-<commandname>.txt for documentation of each command. If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be read with man gittutorial or git help tutorial, and the documentation of each command with man git-<commandname> or git help <commandname>.

CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt (man gitcvs-migration or git help cvs-migration if git is installed).

The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission and Documentation/CodingGuidelines).

Those wishing to help with error message, usage and informational message string translations (localization l10) should see po/README.md (a po file is a Portable Object file that holds the translations).

To subscribe to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org (not the Git list). The mailing list archives are available at https://lore.kernel.org/git/, http://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.

Issues which are security relevant should be disclosed privately to the Git Security mailing list git-security@googlegroups.com.

The maintainer frequently sends the "What's cooking" reports that list the current status of various development topics to the mailing list. The discussion following them give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.

The name "git" was given by Linus Torvalds when he wrote the very first version. He described the tool as "the stupid content tracker" and the name as (depending on your mood):

  • random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not actually used by any common UNIX command. The fact that it is a mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant.
  • stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the dictionary of slang.
  • "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
  • "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks
