Fix remaining -Wsign-compare warnings in "builtin/log.c" and mark the
file as -Wsign-compare-clean. While most of the fixes are obvious, one
fix requires us to use `cast_size_t_to_int()`, which will cause us to
die in case the `size_t` cannot be represented as `int`. This should be
fine though, as the data would typically be set either via a config key
or via the command line, neither of which should ever exceed a couple of
kilobytes of data.

Similar as with the preceding commit, adapt "builtin/log.c" so that it
tracks array indices via `size_t` instead of using signed integers. This
fixes a couple of -Wsign-compare warnings and prepares the code for
a similar refactoring of `repo_get_merge_bases_many()` in a subsequent
commit.

The function `remove_redundant()` gets as input an array of commits as
well as the size of that array and then drops redundant commits from
that array. It then returns either `-1` in case an error occurred, or
the new number of items in the array.
The function receives and returns these sizes with a signed integer,
which causes several warnings with -Wsign-compare. Fix this issue by
consistently using `size_t` to track array indices and splitting up
the returned value into a returned error code and a separate out pointer
for the new computed size.
Note that `get_merge_bases_many()` and related functions still track
array sizes as a signed integer. This will be fixed in a subsequent
commit.

The `can_all_from_reach_with_flag()` function accepts a parameter that
allows callers to cut off traversal at a specified commit date. This
parameter is of type `time_t`, which is a signed type, while we end up
comparing it to a commit's `date` field, which is of the unsigned type
`timestamp_t`.
Fix the parameter to be of type `timestamp_t`. There is only a single
caller in "upload-pack.c" that sets this parameter, and that caller
knows to pass in a `timestamp_t` already.

In 62e745ced2 (prio-queue: use size_t rather than int for size,
2024-12-20), we refactored `struct prio_queue` to track the number of
contained entries via a `size_t`. While the refactoring adapted one of
the users of that variable, it forgot to also adapt "commit-reach.c"
accordingly. This was missed because that file has -Wsign-conversion
disabled.
Fix the issue by using a `size_t` to iterate through entries.

In 62e745ced2 (prio-queue: use size_t rather than int for size,
2024-12-20), we have converted `struct prio_queue` to use `size_t` to
track the number of entries in the queue as well as the allocated size
of the underlying array. There is one more counter though, namely the
insertion counter, that is still using an `unsigned` instead of a
`size_t`. This is unlikely to ever be a problem, but it makes one wonder
why some indices use `size_t` while others use `unsigned`. Furthermore,
the mentioned commit stated the intent to also adapt these variables,
but seemingly forgot to do so.
Fix the issue by converting those counters to use `size_t`, as well.

|

In the preceding commits we have fixed a couple of issues when
allocating zero-sized objects. These issues were masked by
implementation-defined behaviour. Quoting malloc(3p):
If size is 0, either:
* A null pointer shall be returned and errno may be set to an
implementation-defined value, or
* A pointer to the allocated space shall be returned. The
application shall ensure that the pointer is not used to access an
object.
So it is perfectly valid that implementations of this function may or
may not return a NULL pointer in such a case.
Adapt both `reftable_malloc()` and `reftable_realloc()` so that they
return NULL pointers on zero-sized allocations. This should remove any
implementation-defined behaviour in our allocators and thus allows us to
detect such platform-specific issues more easily going forward.

Similar as the preceding commit, we may try to do a zero-sized
allocation when reloading a reftable stack that ain't got any tables.
It is implementation-defined whether malloc(3p) returns a NULL pointer
in that case or a zero-sized object. In case it does return a NULL
pointer though it causes us to think we have run into an out-of-memory
situation, and thus we return an error.
Fix this by only allocating arrays when they have at least one entry.

It was reported [1] that Git started to fail with an out-of-memory error
when initializing repositories with the reftable backend on NonStop
platforms. A bisect led to 802c0646ac (reftable/merged: handle
allocation failures in `merged_table_init_iter()`, 2024-10-02), which
changed how we allocate memory when initializing a merged table.
The root cause of this seems to be that NonStop returns a `NULL` pointer
when doing a zero-sized allocation. This would've already happened
before the above change, but we never noticed because we did not check
the result. Now we do notice and thus return an out-of-memory error to
the caller.
Fix the issue by skipping the allocation altogether in case there are no
readers.

In order to compact tables we need at least two tables. Bail out early
from `reftable_stack_auto_compact()` in case we have less than two
tables.
In the original, `stack_table_sizes_for_compaction()` yields an array
that has the same length as the number of tables. This array is then
passed on to `suggest_compaction_segment()`, which returns an empty
segment in case we have less than two tables. The segment is then passed
to `segment_size()`, which will return `0` because both start and end of
the segment are `0`. And because we only call `stack_compact_range()` in
case we have a positive segment size we don't perform auto-compaction at
all. Consequently, this change does not result in a user-visible change
in behaviour when called with a single table.
But when called with no tables this protects us against a potential
out-of-memory error: `stack_table_sizes_for_compaction()` would try to
allocate a zero-byte object when there aren't any tables, and that may
lead to a `NULL` pointer on some platforms like NonStop which causes us
to bail out with an out-of-memory error.

After a38edab7c8 (Makefile: generate doc versions via GIT-VERSION-GEN,
2024-12-06), we no longer inject GIT_DATE when building with
Asciidoctor.
Replace the <date/> tag in the XML to inject the value of GIT_DATE.
Unlike <refmiscinfo/> as handled in a recent commit, we have no reason
to expect that this tag might be missing, so there's no need for "maybe
remove, then add" and we can just outright replace the one that
Asciidoctor has generated based on the mtime of the source file.
Compared to pre-a38edab7c8, we now end up injecting this also in the
build of Git.3pm, which until now has been using the mtime of Git.pm.
That is arguably even a good change since it results in more
reproducible builds.

is generated as "Git @GIT_VERSION@".

After the recent a38edab7c8 (Makefile: generate doc versions via
GIT-VERSION-GEN, 2024-12-06), building with Asciidoctor results in
manpages where the headers no longer contain "Git Manual" and the
footers no longer identify the built Git version.
Before a38edab7c8, we used to just provide a few attributes to
Asciidoctor (and asciidoc). Commit 7a30134358 (asciidoctor-extensions:
provide `<refmiscinfo/>`, 2019-09-16) noted that older versions of
Asciidoctor didn't propagate those attributes into the built XML files,
so we started injecting them ourselves from this script. With newer
versions of Asciidoctor, we'd end up with some harmless duplication
among the tags in the final XML.
Post-a38edab7c8, we don't provide these attributes and Asciidoctor
inserts empty-ish values. After our additions from 7a30134358, we get
<refmiscinfo class="source"> </refmiscinfo>
<refmiscinfo class="manual"> </refmiscinfo>
<refmiscinfo class="source">2.47.1.[...]</refmiscinfo>
<refmiscinfo class="manual">Git Manual</refmiscinfo>
When these are handled, it appears to be first come first served,
meaning that our additions have no effect and we regress as described in
the first paragraph.
Remove existing "source" or "manual" <refmiscinfo/> tags before adding
ours. I considered removing all <refmiscinfo/> to get a nice clean
slate, instead of just those two that we want to replace to be a bit
more precise. I opted for the latter. Maybe one day, Asciidoctor learns
to insert something useful there which `xmlto` can pick up and make good
use of -- let's not interfere.

GIT-VERSION-GEN tries to derive the version that Git is being built from
via multiple different sources in the following order:
1. A file called "version" in the source tree's root directory, if it
exists.
2. The current commit in case Git is built from a Git repository.
3. Otherwise, we use a fallback version stored in a variable which is
bumped whenever a new Git version is getting tagged.
It used to be possible to override the version by overriding the
`GIT_VERSION` Makefile variable (e.g. `make GIT_VERSION=foo`). This
worked somewhat by chance, only: `GIT-VERSION-GEN` would write the
actual Git version into `GIT-VERSION-FILE`, not the overridden value,
but when including the file into our Makefile we would not override the
`GIT_VERSION` variable because it has already been set by the user. And
because our Makefile used the variable to propagate the version to our
build tools instead of using `GIT-VERSION-FILE` the resulting build
artifacts used the overridden version.
But that subtle mechanism broke with 4838deab65 (Makefile: refactor
GIT-VERSION-GEN to be reusable, 2024-12-06) and subsequent commits
because the version information is not propagated via the Makefile
variable anymore, but instead via the files that `GIT-VERSION-GEN`
started to write. And as the script never knew about the `GIT_VERSION`
environment variable in the first place it uses one of the values listed
above instead of the overridden value.
Fix this issue by making `GIT-VERSION-GEN` handle the case where
`GIT_VERSION` has been set via the environment.
Note that this requires us to introduce a new GIT_VERSION_OVERRIDE
variable that stores a potential user-provided value, either via the
environment or via "config.mak". Ideally we wouldn't need it and could
just continue to use GIT_VERSION for this. But unfortunately, Makefiles
will first include all sub-Makefiles before figuring out whether it
needs to re-make any of them [1]. Consequently, if there already is a
GIT-VERSION-FILE, we would have slurped in its value of GIT_VERSION
before we call GIT-VERSION-GEN, and because GIT-VERSION-GEN now uses
that value as an override it would mean that the first generated value
for GIT_VERSION will remain unchanged.
Furthermore we have to move the include for "GIT-VERSION-FILE" after the
includes for "config.mak" and related so that GIT_VERSION_OVERRIDE can
be set to the value provided by "config.mak".

Some of the callsites of GIT-VERSION-GEN generate the target file with a
"+" suffix first and then move the file into place when the new contents
are different compared to the old contents. This allows us to avoid a
needless rebuild by not updating timestamps of the target file when its
contents will remain unchanged anyway.
In fact though, this exact logic is already handled in GIT-VERSION-GEN,
so doing this manually is pointless. This is a leftover from an earlier
version of 4838deab65 (Makefile: refactor GIT-VERSION-GEN to be

It is possible to configure a Git build without Perl when disabling both

The alloc and nr fields of a prio-queue tell us how much memory is
allocated and used in the array. So the natural type for them is size_t,
which prevents overflow on 64-bit systems where "int" is still 32 bits.
This is unlikely to happen in practice, as we typically use it for
storing commits, and having 2^31 of those is rather a lot. But it's good
to keep our generic data structures as flexible as possible. And as we
start to enforce -Wsign-compare, it means that callers need to use
"int", too, and the problem proliferates. Let's fix it at the source.
The changes here can be put into a few groups:
1. Changing the alloc/nr fields in the struct to size_t. This requires
swapping out int for size_t in negotiator/skipping.c, as well as
in prio_queue_get(), because those all iterate over the array.
Building with -Wsign-compare complains about these.
2. Other code that assigns or passes around indexes into the array
(e.g., the swap() and compare() functions) won't trigger
-Wsign-compare because we are simply truncating the values. These
are caught by -Wconversion, but I've adjusted them here to
future-proof us.
3. In prio_queue_reverse() we compute "queue->nr - 1" without checking
if anything is in the queue, which underflows now that nr is
unsigned. We can fix that by returning early when the queue is
empty (there is nothing to reverse).
4. The insertion_ctr variable is currently unsigned, but can likewise
grow (it is actually worse, because adding and removing an element
many times will keep increasing the counter, even though "nr" does
not). I've bumped that to size_t here, as well.
But -Wconversion notes that computing the "cmp" result by
subtracting the counters and assigning to "int" is a potential
problem. And that's true even before this patch, since we use an
unsigned counter (imagine comparing "2^32-1" and "0", which should
be a high positive value, but instead is "-1" as a signed int).
Since we only care about the sign (and not the magnitude) of the
result, we could fix this by swapping out the subtraction for a
ternary comparison. Probably the performance impact would be
negligible, since we just called into a custom compare function and
branched on its result anyway. But it's easy enough to do a
branchless version by subtracting the comparison results.

Commit 44f9fd6496 (pack-bitmap.c: check preferred pack validity when
opening MIDX bitmap, 2022-05-24) prevents a race condition whereby the
preferred pack disappears between opening the MIDX bitmap and attempting
verbatim reuse out of its packs.
That commit forces open_midx_bitmap_1() to ensure the validity of the
MIDX's preferred pack, meaning that we have an open file handle on the
*.pack, ensuring that we can reuse bytes out of verbatim later on in the
process[^1].
But 44f9fd6496 was not extended to cover multi-pack reuse, meaning that
this same race condition exists for non-preferred packs during verbatim
reuse. Work around that race in the same way by only marking valid packs
as reuse-able. For packs that aren't reusable, skip over them but
include the number of objects they have to ensure we allocate a large
enough 'reuse' bitmap (e.g. if a pack in the middle of the MIDX
disappeared but we still want to reuse later packs).
Since we're ensuring the validity of these packs within the verbatim
reuse code, we no longer have to special-case the preferred pack and
open it within the open_midx_bitmap_1() function.
An alternative approach to the one taken here would be to open all
MIDX'd packs from within open_midx_bitmap_1(). But that would be both
slower and make the bitmaps less useful, since we can still perform some
pack reuse among the packs that still exist when the *.bitmap is opened.
After applying this patch, we can simulate the new behavior after
instrumenting Git like so:
diff --git a/packfile.c b/packfile.c

Note that we could relax the single-pack version of this which was most
recently addressed in dc1daacdcc (pack-bitmap: check pack validity when
opening bitmap, 2021-07-23), but only partially. Because we still need
to know the object count in the pack, we'd still have to open the pack's
*.idx, so the savings there are marginal.
Note likewise that we add a new "if (!packs_nr)" early return in the
pack reuse code to avoid a potentially expensive allocation on the
'reuse' bitmap in the case that no packs are available for reuse.
[^1]: Unless we run out of open file handles. If that happens and we are
forced to close the only open file handle of a file that has been
removed from underneath us, there is nothing we can do.

When the `vcxproj` target was introduced in `config.mak.uname` to allow
building Git with the Visual C toolchain, the `git remote-ext` command
was always executed in its dashed form. Therefore, it was impossible to
pass the test suite unless that command existed in its dashed form, and
we had to special-case this.
Later, when the `vcxproj` target got out of fashion because Visual
Studio gained native support for CMake builds, this special-casing was
copied without questioning it.
But as of 675df192c5f (transport-helper: do not run git-remote-ext etc.
in dashed form, 2020-08-26), the reason for this special-casing no
longer exists. So let's just drop it.

In ccfba9e0c45 (Makefile: use "generate-perl.sh" to massage Perl
library, 2024-12-06), the previous strategy (which avoided spawning a
shell script to transform the files) was replaced by the same
`generate-perl.sh` invocation as for the Makefile-based build.
The only difference is that now the transformation tries to handle the
Perl modules in-place (which ends up in empty files because the same
file is used as input and output via stdin/stdout redirection), and the
Perl script cannot find them anymore because they are not in the
expected place.
Let's put them into the expected place again, i.e. into
`perl/build/lib/` instead of `perl/`.

In 7e0730c8baa (t: better support for out-of-tree builds, 2024-12-06)
the strategy was changed from letting `t7609-mergetool--lib.sh`
hard-code the directory where it expects to find the merge tools to
hard-coding that value in the placeholder `@GIT_TEST_MERGE_TOOLS_DIR@`
that is replaced during the build.
However, likely due to a copy/paste mistake (and reviewers missed this,
too), the CMake-based build was adjusted incorrectly, replacing that
placeholder not with the path to the merge tools, but with a Boolean
indicating whether to use a runtime-generated path prefix or not.
Let's fix that, addressing this CMake-build's symptom:

It used to be the case that initializing the minimal SDK (i.e. a
radically slimmed-down subset of Git for Windows' development
environment intended to perform the CI builds and little else) took
a bit over one minute, would then be cached, and subsequent jobs would
take at most half a dozen seconds to initialize said minimal SDK.
It is important that this step is fast because we have to run the test
suite in parallel, in a set of matrix jobs, to offset the slowness of
the shell-based test suite, and each and every job has to initialize the
very same minimal SDK.
While it may sound as if parallelizing the jobs might only waste the
generously-provided build minutes but at least the _wallclock_ time
would pass quick, in reality it matters a lot: Frequently Git for
Windows' or GitGitGadget PRs get stuck waiting for quite a while before
CI builds start because other PRs' builds still spend substantial
amounts of time to run, blocking due to the concurrency limit being
reached.
Since 91839a88277 (ci: create script to set up Git for Windows SDK,
2024-10-09), the situation has worsened: every job that requires the
minimal Git for Windows SDK spends roughly two-and-a-half minutes doing
so.
With the switch away from the GitHub Action `setup-git-for-windows-sdk`,
we incurred more downsides:
- It is no longer possible for said Action to fix problems independently
from the Git repository, e.g. when new rules about GitHub Actions
require changes in the way the minimal SDK is initialized.
- The minimal SDK was installed specifically outside of the worktree so
as not to clutter it nor incur an additional cost to verify that the
worktree is clean.
Therefore, even if it would be nice to have a shared process between
GitHub and GitLab based CI builds, let's switch the GitHub-based CI back
to the tried-and-tested `setup-git-for-windows-sdk` Action.
This commit partially reverts 91839a88277 (ci: create script to set up
Git for Windows SDK, 2024-10-09).

In 391bceae435 (compat/mingw: support POSIX semantics for atomic
renames, 2024-10-27), we taught the `mingw_rename()` function to respect
POSIX semantics, but we did so only as a fallback after `_wrename()`
fails.
This hid a bug in the implementation that was not caught by Git's test
suite: The `CreateFileW()` function _can_ open handles to directories,
but not when asked to use the `FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL` flag, as that flag
only is allowed for files.
Let's fix this by using the common `FILE_FLAG_BACKUP_SEMANTICS` flag
that can be used for opening handles to directories, too.

The `git refs migrate` command was introduced in
25a0023f28 (builtin/refs: new command to migrate ref storage formats,
2024-06-06) to support migrating from one reference backend to another.
One limitation of the command was that it didn't support migrating
repositories which contained reflogs. A previous commit, added support
for adding reflog updates in ref transactions. Using the added
functionality bake in reflog support for `git refs migrate`.
To ensure that the order of the reflogs is maintained during the
migration, we add the index for each reflog update as we iterate over
the reflogs from the old reference backend. This is to ensure that the
order is maintained in the new backend.

The reference transaction only allows a single update for a given
reference to avoid conflicts. This, however, isn't an issue for reflogs.
There are no conflicts to be resolved in reflogs and when migrating
reflogs between backends we'd have multiple reflog entries for the same
refname.
So allow multiple reflog updates within a single transaction. Also the
reflog creation logic isn't exposed to the end user. While this might
change in the future, currently, this reduces the scope of issues to
think about.
In the reftable backend, the writer sorts all updates based on the
update_index before writing to the block. When there are multiple
reflogs for a given refname, it is essential that the order of the
reflogs is maintained. So add the `index` value to the `update_index`.
The `index` field is only set when multiple reflog entries for a given
refname are added and as such in most scenarios the old behavior
remains.
This is required to add reflog migration support to `git refs migrate`.

Introduce a new function `ref_transaction_update_reflog`, for clients to
add a reflog update to a transaction. While the existing function
`ref_transaction_update` also allows clients to add a reflog entry, this
function does a few things more, It:
- Enforces that only a reflog entry is added and does not update the
ref itself.
- Allows the users to also provide the committer information. This
means clients can add reflog entries with custom committer
information.
The `transaction_refname_valid()` function also modifies the error
message selectively based on the type of the update. This change also
affects reflog updates which go through `ref_transaction_update()`.
A follow up commit will utilize this function to add reflog support to
`git refs migrate`.

When refs are updated in the files-backend, a lock is obtained for the
corresponding file path. This is the case even for reflogs, i.e. a lock
is obtained on the reference path instead of the reflog path. This
works, since generally, reflogs are updated alongside the ref.
The upcoming patches will add support for reflog updates in ref
transaction. This means, in a particular transaction we want to have ref
updates and reflog updates. For a given ref in a given transaction there
can be at most one update. But we can theoretically have multiple reflog
updates for a given ref in a given transaction. A great example of this
would be when migrating reflogs from one backend to another. There we
would batch all the reflog updates for a given reference in a single
transaction.
The current flow does not support this, because currently refs & reflogs
are treated as a single entity and capture the lock together. To
separate this, add a count field to ref_lock. With this, multiple
updates can hold onto a single ref_lock and the lock will only be
released when all of them release the lock.
This patch only adds the `count` field to `ref_lock` and adds the logic
to increment and decrement the lock. In a follow up commit, we'll
separate the reflog update logic from ref updates and utilize this
functionality.

The reftable backend, sorts its updates by refname before applying them,
this ensures that the references are stored sorted. When migrating
reflogs from one backend to another, the order of the reflogs must be

facilitate this.
This field is used in the reftable backend's sort comparison function

order.

The reference backends obtain the committer information from
`git_committer_info(0)` when adding a reflog. The upcoming patches
introduce support for migrating reflogs between the reference backends.
This requires an interface to creating reflogs, including custom
committer information.
Add a new field `committer_info` to the `ref_update` struct, which is
then used by the reference backends. If there is no `committer_info`
provided, the reference backends default to using
`git_committer_info(0)`. The field itself cannot be set to
`git_committer_info(0)` since the values are dynamic and must be
obtained right when the reflog is being committed.

The `git log` command already offers support for including diffs for
merges, via the `--diff-merges=<format>` option.
Let's add corresponding support for `git range-diff`, too. This makes it
more convenient to spot differences between commit ranges that contain
merges.
This is especially true in scenarios with non-trivial merges, i.e.
merges introducing changes other than, or in addition to, what merge ORT
would have produced. Merging a topic branch that changes a function
signature into a branch that added a caller of that function, for
example, would require the merge commit itself to adjust that caller to
the modified signature.
In my code reviews, I found the `--diff-merges=remerge` option

To show a remerge diff, the merge needs to be recreated. For that to
work, the merge base(s) need to be found, which means that the commits'
parents have to be traversed until common ancestors are found (if any).
However, one optimization that hails all the way back to cb115748ec0d
(Some more memory leak avoidance, 2006-06-17) is to release the commit's
list of parents immediately after showing it _and to set that parent
list to `NULL`_. This can break the merge base computation.
This problem is most obvious when traversing the commits in reverse: In
that instance, if a parent of a merge commit has been shown as part of
the `git log` command, by the time the merge commit's diff needs to be
computed, that parent commit's list of parent commits will have been set
to `NULL` and as a result no merge base will be found (even if one
should be found).
Traversing commits in reverse is far from the only circumstance in which
this problem occurs, though. There are many avenues to traversing at
least one commit in the revision walk that will later be part of a merge
base computation, for example when not even walking any revisions in
`git show <merge1> <merge2>` where `<merge1>` is part of the commit
graph between the parents of `<merge2>`.
Another way to force a scenario where a commit is traversed before it
has to be traversed again as part of a merge base computation is to
start with two revisions (where the first one is reachable from the
second but not in a first-parent ancestry) and show the commit log with
`--topo-order` and `--first-parent`.
Let's fix this by special-casing the `remerge_diff` mode, similar to
what we did with reflogs in f35650dff6a4 (log: do not free parents when
walking reflog, 2017-07-07).

Wire up CI builds for both GitLab and GitHub that use the Meson build
system.
While the setup is mostly trivial, one gotcha is the test output
directory used to be in "t/", but now it is contained in the build
directory. To unify the logic across Makefile- and Meson-based builds we
explicitly set up the `TEST_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY` variable so that it is the
same for both build systems.

Our unit tests that don't yet use the clar unit testing framework ignore
any option that they do not understand. It is thus fine to just pass
test options we set up globally to those unit tests as they are simply
ignored. This makes our life easier because we don't have to special
case those options with Meson, where test options are set up globally
via `meson test --test-args=`.
But our clar-based unit testing framework is way stricter here and will
fail in case it is passed an unknown option. Stub out these options with
no-ops to make our life a bit easier.
Note that this also requires us to remove the `-x` short option for
`--exclude`. This is because `-x` has another meaning in our integration
tests, as it enables shell tracing. I doubt there are a lot of people
out there using it as we only got a small hand full of clar tests in the
first place. So better change it now so that we can in the long run
improve compatibility between the two different test drivers.

Both t9835 and t9836 exercise git-p4, but one exercises Python 2 whereas
the other one uses Python 3. These tests do not exercise "git p4", but
instead they use "git p4.py". This calls the unbuilt version of
"git-p4.py" that still has the "#!/usr/bin/env python" shebang, which
allows the test to modify which Python version comes first in $PATH,
making it possible to force a Python version.
But "git-p4.py" is not in our PATH during out-of-tree builds, and thus
we cannot locate "git-p4.py". The tests thus break with CMake and Meson.
Fix this by instead manually setting up script wrappers that invoke the
respective Python interpreter directly.

Auto-select ("Copy commit ID to X11 selection") is useful when a
selection cliboard exists, but otherwise generally meaningless, for
instance on Windows.
Add a similar pref and behavior which copies the commit ID to the
primary clipboard - for platforms without a selection clipboard, but
which can also be useful additionally on platforms with selection.
Note that while autoselect is enabled by default, autocopy isn't.
That's because the selection clipboard is typically dispensable, while
the primary clipboard can be considered a more precious resource,
which we don't want to (clear and) overwrite by default.

Tl;DR: change Auto-select text, move the length input to a new line.
The Auto-select preference auto-selects [part of] the commit ID text
at the respective widget on startup, and when the current commit at
the graph changes.
Its real premise, however, is to populate the selection clipboard
with the commit ID. Consider, for instance, how meaningless it is on
platforms without a selection clipboard - like Windows or macOS (on
Windows the selection is not even visible with the default Tk theme,
because it's only visible in focused widgets - which the commit ID
widget is not during normal application of this selection).
So rename the Auto-select label to "Copy commit ID to X11 selection",
to reflect better the ultimate outcome of its application
Note that there exists other, non-X11 platforms with a selection
clipboard, like Wayland, and if a native Tk client exists on such
platforms, then the description will not be accurate, but hopefully
it's not too misleading either.
Additionally, move the length input widget to a new line, because:
- This length applies to both Auto-select and "Copy commit reference"
context menu item, so it's not exclusive to the selection length.
- The next commit will add support for primary clipboard as well,
where this length will also be used.
Also, move the "Hide remotes" item above these selection prefs, to
keep the selection prefs semi-grouped before the spacing of the
following title "Diff display options".

The changes in commit c06793a4ed (allow git-bundle to create bottomless
bundle, 2007-08-08) ensure annotated tags are properly preserved when
creating a bundle using a revision range operation.
At the time the range notation would peel the ends to their
corresponding commit, meaning ref v2.0 would point to the v2.0^0 commit.
So the above workaround was introduced. This code looks up the ref
before it's written to the bundle, and if the ref doesn't point to the
object we expect (for tags this would be a tag object), we skip the ref
from the bundle. Instead, when the ref is a tag that's the positive end
of the range (e.g. v2.0 from the range "v1.0..v2.0"), then that ref is
written to the bundle instead.
Later, in 895c5ba3c1 (revision: do not peel tags used in range notation,
2013-09-19), the behavior of parsing ranges was changed and the problem
was fixed at the cause. But the workaround in bundle.c was not reverted.
Now it seems this workaround can cause a race condition. git-bundle(1)
uses setup_revisions() to parse the input into `struct rev_info`. Later,
in write_bundle_refs(), it uses this info to write refs to the bundle.
As mentioned at this point each ref is looked up again and checked
whether it points to the object we expect. If not, the ref is not
written to the bundle. But, when creating a bundle in a heavy traffic
repository (a repo with many references, and frequent ref updates) it's
possible a branch ref was updated between setup_revisions() and
write_bundle_refs() and thus the extra check causes the ref to be
skipped.
The workaround was originally added to deal with tags, but the code path
also gets hit by non-tag refs, causing this race condition. Because it's
no longer needed, remove it and fix the possible race condition.

Whenever we source "ci/lib.sh" we wrap the directives in a separate
group so that they can easily be collapsed in the web UI. And as we
source the script multiple times during a single CI run we thus end up
with the same section name reused multiple times, as well.
This is broken on GitLab CI though, where reusing the same group name is
not supported. The consequence is that only the last of these sections
can be collapsed.
Fix this issue by including the name of the sourcing script in the

We use a singleton empty array to initialize a `struct strvec`;
similar to the empty string singleton we use to initialize a `struct
strbuf`.
Note that an empty strvec instance (with zero elements) does not
necessarily need to be an instance initialized with the singleton.
Let's refer to strvec instances initialized with the singleton as
"empty-singleton" instances.
As a side note, this is the current `strvec_pop()`:
void strvec_pop(struct strvec *array)
{
if (!array->nr)
return;
free((char *)array->v[array->nr - 1]);
array->v[array->nr - 1] = NULL;
array->nr--;
}
So, with `strvec_pop()` an instance can become empty but it does
not going to be the an "empty-singleton".
This "empty-singleton" circumstance requires us to be careful when
adding elements to instances. Specifically, when adding the first
element: when we detach the strvec instance from the singleton and
set the internal pointer in the instance to NULL. After this point we
apply `realloc()` on the pointer. We do this in
`strvec_push_nodup()`, for example.
The recently introduced `strvec_splice()` API is expected to be
normally used with non-empty strvec's. However, it can also end up
being used with "empty-singleton" strvec's:
struct strvec arr = STRVEC_INIT;
int a = 0, b = 0;
... no modification to arr, a or b ...
const char *rep[] = { "foo" };
strvec_splice(&arr, a, b, rep, ARRAY_SIZE(rep));
So, we'll try to add elements to an "empty-singleton" strvec instance.
Avoid misapplying `realloc()` to the singleton in `strvec_splice()` by
adding a special case for strvec's initialized with the singleton.

Commit c08589efdc (index-pack: repack local links into promisor packs,
2024-11-01) seems to contain an oversight in that the tree of a commit
is not checked. Teach git to check these trees.
The fix slows down a fetch from a certain repo at $DAYJOB from 2m2.127s
to 2m45.052s, but in order to make the fetch correct, it seems worth it.
In order to test this, we could create server and client repos as
follows...
C S
\ /
O
(O and C are commits both on the client and server. S is a commit
only on the server. C and S have the same tree but different commit
messages. The diff between O and C is non-zero.)
...and then, from the client, fetch S from the server.
In theory, the client declares "have C" and the server can use this
information to exclude S's tree (since it knows that the client has C's
tree, which is the same as S's tree). However, it is also possible for
the server to compute that it needs to send S and not O, and proceed
from there; therefore the objects of C are not considered at all when
determining what to send in the packfile. In order to prevent a test of
client functionality from having such a dependence on server behavior, I
have not included such a test.

Commit c08589efdc (index-pack: repack local links into promisor packs,
2024-11-01) fixed a bug with what was believed to be a negligible
decrease in performance [1] [2]. But at $DAYJOB, with at least one repo,
it was found that the decrease in performance was very significant.
Looking at the patch, whenever we parse an object in the packfile to
be indexed, we check the targets of all its outgoing links for its
existence. However, this could be optimized by first collecting all such
targets into an oidset (thus deduplicating them) before checking. Teach
Git to do that.
On a certain fetch from the aforementioned repo, this improved
performance from approximately 7 hours to 24m47.815s. This number will
be further reduced in a subsequent patch.

Recently it was reported [1] that "look for the youngest commit
reachable from any ref with log message that match the given
pattern" syntax (i.e. ':/<text>') started to return results in
reverse recency order. This regression was introduced in Git v2.47.0
and is caused by a memory leak fix done in 57fb139b5e (object-name:
fix leaking commit list items, 2024-08-01).
The intent of the identified commit is to stop modifying the commit list
provided by the caller such that the caller can properly free all commit
list items, including those that the called function might potentially
remove from the list. This was done by creating a copy of the passed-in
commit list and modifying this copy instead of the caller-provided list.
We already knew to create such a copy beforehand with the `backup` list,
which was used to clear the `ONELINE_SEEN` commit mark after we were
done. So the refactoring simply renamed that list to `copy` and started
to operate on that list instead. There is a gotcha though: the backup
list, and thus now also the copied list, is always being prepended to,
so the resulting list is in reverse order! The end result is that we
pop commits from the wrong end of the commit list, returning commits in
reverse recency order.
Fix the bug by appending to the list instead.

In 3f763ddf28 (fetch: set remote/HEAD if it does not exist,
2024-11-22), git-fetch learned to opportunistically set $REMOTE/HEAD
when fetching by always asking for remote HEAD, in the hope that it
will help setting refs/remotes/<name>/HEAD if missing.
But it is not needed to always ask for remote HEAD. When we are
fetching from a remote, for which we have remote-tracking branches,
we do need to know about HEAD. But if we are doing one-shot fetch,
e.g.,
$ git fetch --tags https://github.com/git/git
we do not even know what sub-hierarchy of refs/remotes/<remote>/
we need to adjust the remote HEAD for. There is no need to ask for
HEAD in such a case.
Incidentally, because the unconditional request to list "HEAD"
affected the number of ref-prefixes requested in the ls-remote
request, this affected how the requests for tags are added to the
same ls-remote request, breaking "git fetch --tags $URL" performed
against a URL that is not configured as a remote.

Each reftable addition has an associated update_index. While writing
refs, the update_index is verified to be within the range of the
reftable writer, i.e. `writer.min_update_index <= ref.update_index` and
`writer.max_update_index => ref.update_index`.
The corresponding check for reflogs in `reftable_writer_add_log` is
however missing. Add a similar check, but only check for the upper
limit. This is because reflogs are treated a bit differently than refs.
Each reflog entry in reftable has an associated update_index and we also
allow expiring entries in the middle, which is done by simply writing a
new reflog entry with the same update_index. This means, writing reflog
entries with update_index lesser than the writer's update_index is an
expected scenario.
Add a new unit test to check for the limits and fix some of the existing
tests, which were setting arbitrary values for the update_index by
ensuring they stay within the now checked limits.

Introduce support for the Meson build system, a "modern" meta build
system that supports many different platforms, including Linux, macOS,
Windows and BSDs. Meson supports different backends, including Ninja,
Xcode and Microsoft Visual Studio. Several common IDEs provide an
integration with it.
The biggest contender compared to Meson is probably CMake as outlined in
our "Documentation/technical/build-systems.txt" file. Based on my own
personal experience from working with both build systems extensively I
strongly favor Meson over CMake. In my opinion, it feels significantly
easier to use with a syntax that feels more like a "real" programming
language. The second big reason is that Meson supports Rust natively,
which may prove to be important given that the project may pick up Rust
as another language eventually.
Using Meson is rather straight-forward. An example:
```
# Meson uses out-of-tree builds. You can set up multiple build
# directories, how you name them is completely up to you.
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ meson setup .. -Dprefix=/tmp/git-installation
# Build the project. This also provides several other targets like
e.g. `install` or `test`.
$ ninja
# Meson has been wired up to support execution of our test suites.
# Both our unit tests and our integration tests are supported.

The build instructions have been successfully tested on the following

- Windows 10 with Cygwin.
- Windows 10 with MinGW64, except for t9700, which is also broken with
our Makefile.
- Windows 10 with Visual Studio 2022 toolchain, using the Native Tools
Command Prompt with `meson setup --vsenv`. Tests pass, except for
t9700.
- Windows 10 with Visual Studio 2022 solution, using the Native Tools
Command Prompt with `meson setup --backend vs2022`. Tests pass,
except for t9700.
- Windows 10 with VS Code, using the Meson plug-in.
It is expected that there will still be rough edges in the current
version. If this patch lands the expectation is that it will coexist
with our other build systems for a while. Like this, distributions can
slowly migrate over to Meson and report any findings they have to us
such that we can continue to iterate. A potential cutoff date for other
build systems may be Git 3.0.
Some notes:
- The installed distribution is structured somewhat differently than
how it used to be the case. All of our binaries are installed into
`$libexec/git-core`, while all binaries part of `$bindir` are now
symbolic links pointing to the former. This rule is consistent in
itself and thus easier to reason about.
- We do not install dashed binaries into `$libexec/git-core` anymore,
so there won't e.g. be a symlink for git-add(1). These are not
required by modern Git and there isn't really much of a use case for
those anymore. By not installing those symlinks we thus start the
deprecation of this layout.
- We're targeting Meson 1.3.0, which has been released relatively
recently November 2023. The only feature we use from that version is
`fs.relative_to()`, which we could replace if necessary. If so, we
could start to target Meson 1.0.0 and newer, released in December
2022.
- The whole build instructions count around 3300 lines, half of which
is listing all of our code and test files. Our Makefiles are around
5000 lines, autoconf adds another 1300 lines. CMake in comparison
has only 1200 linescode, but it avoids listing individual files and
does not wire up auto-configuration as extensively as the Meson
instructions do.
- We bundle a set of subproject wrappers for curl, expat, openssl,
pcre2 and zlib. This allows developers to build Git without these
dependencies preinstalled, and Meson will fetch and build them
automatically. This is especially helpful on Windows.

Our "test-lib.sh" assumes that our build directory is the parent
directory of "t/". While true when using our Makefile, it's not when
using build systems that support out-of-tree builds.
In commit ee9e66e4e7 (cmake: avoid editing t/test-lib.sh, 2022-10-18),
we have introduce support for overriding the GIT_BUILD_DIR by creating
the file "$GIT_BUILD_DIR/GIT-BUILD-DIR" with its contents pointing to
the location of the build directory. The intent was to stop modifying
"t/test-lib.sh" with the CMake build systems while allowing out-of-tree
builds. But "$GIT_BUILD_DIR" is somewhat misleadingly named, as it in
fact points to the _source_ directory. So while that commit solved part
of the problem for out-of-tree builds, CMake still has to write files
into the source tree.
Solve the second part of the problem, namely not having to write any
data into the source directory at all, by also supporting an environment
variable that allows us to point to a different build directory. This
allows us to perform properly self-contained out-of-tree builds.

Our in-tree builds used by the Makefile use various different build
directories scattered around different locations. The paths to those
build directories have to be propagated to our tests such that they can
find the contained files. This is done via a mixture of hardcoded paths
in our test library and injected variables in our bin-wrappers or
"GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS".
The latter two mechanisms are preferable over using hardcoded paths. For
one, we have all paths which are subject to change stored in a small set
of central files instead of having the knowledge of build paths in many
files. And second, it allows build systems which build files elsewhere
to adapt those paths based on their own needs. This is especially nice
in the context of build systems that use out-of-tree builds like CMake
or Meson.
Remove hardcoded knowledge of build paths from our test library and move
it into our bin-wrappers and "GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS".

Our documentation uses "include::" directives to include parts that are
either reused across multiple documents or parts that we generate at
build time. Unfortunately, top-level includes are only ever resolved
relative to the base directory, which is typically the directory of the
including document. Most importantly, it is not possible to have either
asciidoc or asciidoctor search multiple directories.
It follows that both kinds of includes must live in the same directory.
This is of course a bummer for out-of-tree builds, because here the
dynamically-built includes live in the build directory whereas the
static includes live in the source directory.
Introduce a `build_dir` attribute and prepend it to all of our includes
for dynamically-built files. This attribute gets set to the build
directory and thus converts the include path to an absolute path, which
asciidoc and asciidoctor know how to resolve.
Note that this change also requires us to update "build-docdep.perl",
which tries to figure out included files such our Makefile can set up
proper build-time dependencies. This script simply scans through the
source files for any lines that match "^include::" and treats the
remainder of the line as included file path. But given that those may
now contain the "{build_dir}" variable we have to teach the script to
replace that attribute with the actual build directory.

When we install Git we also install a set of default templates that both
git-init(1) and git-clone(1) populate into our build directories. The
way the pristine templates are laid out in our source directory is
somewhat weird though: instead of reconstructing the actual directory
hierarchy in "templates/", we represent directory separators with "--".
The only reason I could come up with for why we have this is the
"branches/" directory, which is supposed to be empty when installing it.
And as Git famously doesn't store empty directories at all we have to
work around this limitation.
Now the thing is that the "branches/" directory is a leftover to how
branches used to be stored in the dark ages. gitrepository-layout(5)
lists this directory as "slightly deprecated", which I would claim is a
strong understatement. I have never encountered anybody using it today
and would be surprised if it even works as expected. So having the "--"
hack in place for an item that is basically unused, unmaintained and
deprecated doesn't only feel unreasonable, but installing that entry by
default may also cause confusion for users that do not know what this is
supposed to be in the first place.
Remove this directory from our templates and, now that we do not require
the workaround anymore, restructure the templates to form a proper
hierarchy. This makes it way easier for build systems to install these
templates into place.
We should likely think about removing support for "branch/" altogether,
but that is outside of the scope of this patch series.

In order to generate "gitweb.cgi" we have to replace various different

Introduce a new GITWEB-BUILD-OPTIONS.in template that we populate at
configuration time with the expected options. This script is then used
as input for a new "generate-gitweb.sh" script that generates the final

GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS file.
While at it, refactor how we replace the GITWEB_PROJECT_MAXDEPTH. Even
though this variable is supposed to be an integer, the source file has
the value quoted. The quotes are eventually stripped via sed(1), which

We have a bunch of placeholders in our scripts that we replace at build

Next to being inconsistent it also creates a bit of a problem with
CMake, which only supports the first syntax in its `configure_file()`
function. To work around that we instead manually replace placeholders
via string operations, which is a hassle and removes safeguards that
CMake has to verify that we didn't forget to replace any placeholders.
Besides that, other build systems like Meson also support the CMake

The "GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS" file is generated by our build systems to
propagate built-in features and paths to our tests. The generation is
done ad-hoc, where both our Makefile and the CMake build instructions
simply echo a bunch of strings into the file. This makes it very hard to
figure out what variables are expected to exist and what format they
have, and the written variables can easily get out of sync between build
systems.
Introduce a new "GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS.in" template to address this issue.
This has multiple advantages:
- It demonstrates which built options exist in the first place.
- It can serve as a spot to document the build options.
- Some build systems complain when not all variables could be
substituted, alerting us of mismatches. Others don't, but if we
forgot to substitute such variables we now have a bogus string that
will likely cause our tests to fail, if they have any meaning in the
first place.

In fact, even `get_one_patchid()` itself is also using an integer as

The `length` variable is used to store how many bytes we wish to emit
from an object ID. This value will either be the full hash algorithm's
length, or the abbreviated hash that can be set via `--abbrev` or the
"core.abbrev" option. The former is of type `size_t`, whereas the latter
is of type `int`, which causes a warning with "-Wsign-compare".
The reason why `abbrev` is using a signed type is mostly that it is
initialized with `-1` to indicate that we have to compute the minimum
abbreviation length. This length is computed via `find_alignment()`,
which always gets called before `emit_other()`, and thus we can assume
that the value would never be negative in `emit_other()`.
In fact, we can even assume that the value will always be at least
`MINIMUM_ABBREV`, which is enforced by both `git_default_core_config()`
and `parse_opt_abbrev_cb()`. We implicitly rely on this by subtracting
up to 3 without checking for whether the value becomes negative. We then
pass the value to printf(3p) to print the prefix of our object's ID, so
if that assumption was violated we may end up with undefined behaviour.
Squelch the warning by asserting this invariant and casting the value of
`abbrev` to `size_t`. This allows us to store the whole length as an
unsigned integer, which we can then pass to `fwrite()`.

Similar to the preceding commit, we get a warning in `get_packet_data()`
on 32 bit platforms due to our lenient use of `ssize_t`. This function
is kind of curious though: we accept an `unsigned size` of bytes to
read, then store the actual number of bytes read in an `ssize_t` and
return it as an `int`. This is a whole lot of integer conversions, and
in theory these can cause us to overflow when the passed-in size is
larger than `ssize_t`, which on 32 bit platforms is implemented as an
`int`.
None of the callers of that function even care about the number of bytes
we have read, so returning that number is moot anyway. Refactor the
function such that it only returns an error code, which plugs the
potential overflow. While at it, convert the passed-in size parameter to

On 32-bit platforms, ssize_t may be "int" while size_t may be
"unsigned int". At times we compare the number of bytes we read
stored in a ssize_t variable with "unsigned int", but that is done
after we check that we did not get an error return (which is
negative---and that is the whole reason why we used ssize_t and not
size_t), so these comparisons are safe.
But compilers may not realize that. Cast these to size_t to work
around the false positives. On platforms with size_t/ssize_t wider

When compiling with DEVELOPER=YesPlease, we explicitly disable the
"-Wsign-compare" warning. This is mostly because our code base is full
of cases where we don't bother at all whether something should be signed
or unsigned, and enabling the warning would thus cause tons of warnings
to pop up.
Unfortunately, disabling this warning also masks real issues. There have
been multiple CVEs in the Git project that would have been flagged by
this warning (e.g. CVE-2022-39260, CVE-2022-41903 and several fixes in
the vicinity of these CVEs). Furthermore, the final audit report by
X41 D-Sec, who are the ones who have discovered some of the CVEs, hinted
that it might be a good idea to become more strict in this context.
Now simply enabling the warning globally does not fly due to the stated
reason above that we simply have too many sites where we use the wrong
integer types. Instead, introduce a new set of macros that allow us to
mark a file as being free of warnings with "-Wsign-compare". The
mechanism is similar to what we do with `USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE`:
every file that is not marked with `DISABLE_SIGN_COMPARE_WARNINGS` will
be compiled with those warnings enabled.
These new markings will be wired up in the subsequent commits.

Commit a30154187a (describe: stop traversing when we run out of names,
2024-10-31) taught git-describe to automatically reduce the
max_candidates setting to match the total number of possible names. This
lets us break out of the traversal rather than fruitlessly searching for
more candidates when there are no more to be found.
However, setting max_candidates to 0 (e.g., if the repo has no tags)
overlaps with the --exact-match option, which explicitly uses the same
value. And this causes a regression with --always, which is ignored in
exact-match mode. We used to get this in a repo with no tags:
$ git describe --always HEAD
b2f0a7f
and now we get:
$ git describe --always HEAD
fatal: no tag exactly matches 'b2f0a7f47f5f2aebe1e7fceff19a57de20a78c06'
The reason is that we bail early in describe_commit() when
max_candidates is set to 0. This logic goes all the way back to
2c33f75754 (Teach git-describe --exact-match to avoid expensive tag
searches, 2008-02-24).
We should obviously fix this regression, but there are two paths,
depending on what you think:
$ git describe --always --exact-match
and
$ git describe --always --candidates=0
should do. Since the "--always" option was added, it has always been
ignored in --exact-match (or --candidates=0) mode. I.e., we treat
--exact-match as a true exact match of a tag, and never fall back to
using --always, even if it was requested.
If we think that's a bug (or at least a misfeature), then the right
solution is to fix it by removing the early bail-out from 2c33f75754,
letting the noop algorithm run and then hitting the --always fallback
output. And then our regression naturally goes away, because it follows
the same path.
If we think that the current "--exact-match --always" behavior is the
right thing, then we have to differentiate the case where we
automatically reduced max_candidates to 0 from the case where the user
asked for it specifically. That's possible to do with a flag, but we can
also just reimplement the logic from a30154187a to explicitly break out
of the traversal when we run out of candidates (rather than relying on
the existing max_candidates check).
My gut feeling is along the lines of option 1 (it's a bug, and people
would be happy for "--exact-match --always" to give the fallback rather
than ignoring "--always"). But the documentation can be interpreted in
the other direction, and we've certainly lived with the existing
behavior for many years. So it's possible that changing it now is the
wrong thing.
So this patch fixes the regression by taking the second option,
retaining the "--exact-match" behavior as-is. There are two new tests.
The first shows that the regression is fixed (we don't even need a new
repo without tags; a restrictive --match is enough to create the
situation that there are no candidate names).
The second test confirms that the "--exact-match --always" behavior
remains unchanged and continues to die when there is no tag pointing at
the specified commit. It's possible we may reconsider this in the
future, but this shows that the approach described above is implemented
faithfully.
We can also run the perf tests in p6100 to see that we've retained the
speedup that a30154187a was going for:

The advice message currently suggests using "git config advice..." to
disable advice messages, but since
00bbdde141 (builtin/config: introduce "set" subcommand, 2024-05-06)
we have the "set" subcommand for config. Since using the subcommand is
more in-line with the modern interface, any advice should be promoting
its usage. Change the disable advice message to use the subcommand
instead. Change all uses of "git config advice" in the tests to use the
subcommand.

When running "remote set-head" manually it is unlikely, that the user
would actually like to have "fetch" always update the remote/HEAD. On
the contrary, it is more likely, that the user would expect remote/HEAD
to stay the way they manually set it, and just forgot about having
"followRemoteHEAD" set to "always".
When "followRemoteHEAD" is set to "always" make running "remote
set-head" change the config to "warn".

Currently if we want to have a remote/HEAD locally that is different
from the one on the remote, but we still want to get a warning if remote
changes HEAD, our only option is to have an indiscriminate warning with
"follow_remote_head" set to "warn". Add a new option
"warn-if-not-$branch", where $branch is a branch name we do not wish to
get a warning about. If the remote HEAD is $branch do not warn,
otherwise, behave as "warn".
E.g. let's assume, that our remote origin has HEAD
set to "master", but locally we have "git remote set-head origin seen".
Setting 'remote.origin.followRemoteHEAD = "warn"' will always print
a warning, even though the remote has not changed HEAD from "master".
Setting 'remote.origin.followRemoteHEAD = "warn-if-not-master" will
squelch the warning message, unless the remote changes HEAD from
"master". Note, that should the remote change HEAD to "seen" (which we
have locally), there will still be no warning.
Improve the advice message in report_set_head to also include silencing
the warning message with "warn-if-not-$branch".

Advice about what to do when getting a warning is typed out explicitly
twice and is printed as regular output. The output is also tested for.
Extract the advice message into a single place and use a wrapper
function, so if later the advice is made more chatty the signature only
needs to be changed in once place. Remove the testing for the advice
output in the tests.

The `load_multi_pack_index` function in midx uses `the_repository`
variable to access the `repository` struct. Modify the function and its
callee's to send the `repository` field.
This moves usage of `the_repository` to the `test-read-midx.c` file.
While that is not optimal, it is okay, since the upcoming commits will
slowly move the usage of `the_repository` up the layers and remove it
eventually.

In the `midx.c` file, there are multiple usages of `the_repository` and
`the_hash_algo` within static functions of the file. Some of the usages
can be simply swapped out with the available `repository` struct. While
some of them can be swapped out by passing the repository to the
required functions.
This leaves out only some other usages of `the_repository` and
`the_hash_algo` in the file in non-static functions, which we'll tackle
in upcoming commits.

In a previous commit, we passed the repository field to all
subcommands in the `builtin/` directory. Utilize this to pass the
repository field down to the `write_midx_file[_only]` functions to

With this, all usage of global variables in `midx-write.c` is removed,
hence, remove the `USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE` guard from the file.

In 'midx-write.c' there are a lot of static functions which use global
variables `the_repository` or `the_hash_algo`. In a follow up commit,
the repository variable will be added to `write_midx_context`, which
some of the functions can use. But for functions which do not have
access to this struct, pass down the required information from
non-static functions `write_midx_file` and `write_midx_file_only`.
This requires that the function `hash_to_hex` is also replaced with
`hash_to_hex_algop` since the former internally accesses the
`the_hash_algo` global variable.
This ensures that the usage of global variables is limited to these
non-static functions, which will be cleaned up in a follow up commit.
