f331ab9d4c use MOVE_ARRAY
Simplify the code for moving members inside of an array and make it more
robust by using the helper macro MOVE_ARRAY.  It calculates the size
based on the specified number of elements for us and supports NULL
pointers when that number is zero.  Raw memmove(3) calls with NULL can
cause the compiler to (over-eagerly) optimize out later NULL checks.

This patch was generated with contrib/coccinelle/array.cocci and spatch
(Coccinelle).

df801f3f9f read-cache: use shared perms when writing shared index
Since f6ecc62dbf (write_shared_index(): use tempfile module, 2015-08-10)
write_shared_index() has been using mks_tempfile() to create the
temporary file that will become the shared index.

But even before that, it looks like the functions used to create this
file didn't call adjust_shared_perm(), which means that the shared
index file has always been created with 600 permissions regardless
of the shared permission settings.

Because of that, on repositories created with `git init --shared=all`
and using the split index feature, one gets an error like:

fatal: .git/sharedindex.a52f910b489bc462f187ab572ba0086f7b5157de: index file open failed: Permission denied

when another user performs any operation that reads the shared index.

Call adjust_shared_perm() on the temporary file created by
mks_tempfile() ourselves to adjust the permission bits.

edf3b90553 unpack-trees: preserve index extensions
Make git checkout (and other unpack_tree operations) preserve the
untracked cache. This is valuable for two reasons:

1. Often, an unpack_tree operation will not touch large parts of the
working tree, and thus most of the untracked cache will continue to be
valid.

2. Even if the untracked cache were entirely invalidated by such an
operation, the user has signaled their intention to have such a cache,
and we don't want to throw it away.

f9d7abec2a split-index: add and use unshare_split_index()
When split-index is being used, we have two cache_entry arrays in
index_state->cache[] and index_state->split_index->base->cache[].

index_state->cache[] may share the same entries with base->cache[] so
we can quickly determine what entries are shared. This makes memory
management tricky, we can't free base->cache[] until we know
index_state->cache[] does not point to any of those entries.

unshare_split_index() is added for this purpose, to find shared
entries and either duplicate them in index_state->cache[], or discard
them. Either way it should be safe to free base->cache[] after
unshare_split_index().

a96d3cc3f6 cache-tree: reject entries with null sha1
We generally disallow null sha1s from entering the index,
due to 4337b5856 (do not write null sha1s to on-disk index,
2012-07-28). However, we loosened that in 83bd7437c
(write_index: optionally allow broken null sha1s,
2013-08-27) so that tools like filter-branch could be used
to repair broken history.

However, we should make sure that these broken entries do
not get propagated into new trees. For most entries, we'd
catch them with the missing-object check (since presumably
the null sha1 does not exist in our object database). But
gitlink entries do not need reachability, so we may blindly
copy the entry into a bogus tree.

This patch rejects all null sha1s (with the same "invalid
entry" message that missing objects get) when building trees
from the index. It does so even for non-gitlinks, and even
when "write-tree" is given the --missing-ok flag. The null
sha1 is a special sentinel value that is already rejected in
trees by fsck; whether the object exists or not, it is an
error to put it in a tree.

Note that for this to work, we must also avoid reusing an
existing cache-tree that contains the null sha1. This patch
does so by just refusing to write out any cache tree when
the index contains a null sha1. This is blunter than we need
to be; we could just reject the subtree that contains the
offending entry. But it's not worth the complexity. The
behavior is unchanged unless you have a broken index entry,
and even then we'd refuse the whole index write unless the
emergency GIT_ALLOW_NULL_SHA1 is in use. And even then the
end result is only a performance drop (any write-tree will
have to generate the whole cache-tree from scratch).

The tests bear some explanation.

The existing test in t7009 doesn't catch this problem,
because our index-filter runs "git rm --cached", which will
try to rewrite the updated index and barf on the bogus
entry. So we never even make it to write-tree.  The new test
there adds a noop index-filter, which does show the problem.

The new tests in t1601 are slightly redundant with what
filter-branch is doing under the hood in t7009. But as
they're much more direct, they're easier to reason about.
And should filter-branch ever change or go away, we'd want
to make sure that these plumbing commands behave sanely.

ccef2bb5fa read-cache: avoid using git_path() in freshen_shared_index()
When performing an interactive rebase in split-index mode,
the commit message that one should rework when squashing commits
can contain some garbage instead of the usual concatenation of
both of the commit messages.

The code uses git_path() to compute the shared index filename, and
passes it to check_and_freshen_file() as its argument; there is no
guarantee that the rotating pathname buffer passed as argument will
stay valid during the life of this call.  Make our own copy before
calling the function and pass the copy as its argument to avoid this
risky pattern.

b986df5c35 read-cache: speed up has_dir_name (part 2)
Teach has_dir_name() to see if the path of the new item
is greater than the last path in the index array before
attempting to search for it.

has_dir_name() is looking for file/directory collisions
in the index and has to consider each sub-directory
prefix in turn.  This can cause multiple binary searches
for each path.

During operations like checkout, merge_working_tree()
populates the new index in sorted order, so we expect
to be able to append in many cases.

This commit is part 2 of 2.  This commit handles the
additional possible short-cuts as we look at each
sub-directory prefix.

The net-net gains for add_index_entry_with_check() and
both had_dir_name() commits are best seen for very
large repos.

c3a0082502 read-cache: use freshen_shared_index() in read_index_from()
This way a share index file will not be garbage collected if
we still read from an index it is based from.

As we need to read the current index before creating a new
one, the tests have to be adjusted, so that we don't expect
an old shared index file to be deleted right away when we
create a new one.

b968372279 read-cache: unlink old sharedindex files
Everytime split index is turned on, it creates a "sharedindex.XXXX"
file in the git directory. This change makes sure that shared index
files that haven't been used for a long time are removed when a new
shared index file is created.

The new "splitIndex.sharedIndexExpire" config variable is created
to tell the delay after which an unused shared index file can be
deleted. It defaults to "2.weeks.ago".

A previous commit made sure that each time a split index file is
created the mtime of the shared index file it references is updated.
This makes sure that recently used shared index file will not be
deleted.

When a split-index file is created, let's update the mtime of the

In a following commit we will make shared index file expire
depending on their mtime, so updating the mtime makes sure that
the shared index file will not be deleted soon.

e6a1dd77e1 read-cache: regenerate shared index if necessary
When writing a new split-index and there is a big number of cache
entries in the split-index compared to the shared index, it is a
good idea to regenerate the shared index.

By default when the ratio reaches 20%, we will push back all
the entries from the split-index into a new shared index file
instead of just creating a new split-index file.

The threshold can be configured using the
"splitIndex.maxPercentChange" config variable.

We need to adjust the existing tests in t1700 by setting
"splitIndex.maxPercentChange" to 100 at the beginning of t1700,
as the existing tests are assuming that the shared index is
regenerated only when `git update-index --split-index` is used.

b3e83cc752 hold_locked_index(): align error handling with hold_lockfile_for_update()
Callers of the hold_locked_index() function pass 0 when they want to
prepare to write a new version of the index file without wishing to
die or emit an error message when the request fails (e.g. somebody
else already held the lock), and pass 1 when they want the call to
die upon failure.

This option is called LOCK_DIE_ON_ERROR by the underlying lockfile
API, and the hold_locked_index() function translates the paramter to
LOCK_DIE_ON_ERROR when calling the hold_lock_file_for_update().

Replace these hardcoded '1' with LOCK_DIE_ON_ERROR and stop
translating.  Callers other than the ones that are replaced with
this change pass '0' to the function; no behaviour change is
intended with this patch.

Among the callers of hold_locked_index() that passes 0:

 - diff.c::refresh_index_quietly() at the end of "git diff" is an
   opportunistic update; it leaks the lockfile structure but it is
   just before the program exits and nobody should care.

 - builtin/describe.c::cmd_describe(),
   builtin/commit.c::cmd_status(),
   sequencer.c::read_and_refresh_cache() are all opportunistic
   updates and they are OK.

 - builtin/update-index.c::cmd_update_index() takes a lock upfront
   but we may end up not needing to update the index (i.e. the
   entries may be fully up-to-date), in which case we do not need to
   issue an error upon failure to acquire the lock.  We do diagnose
   and die if we indeed need to update, so it is OK.

 - wt-status.c::require_clean_work_tree() IS BUGGY.  It asks
   silence, does not check the returned value.  Compare with
   callsites like cmd_describe() and cmd_status() to notice that it
   is wrong to call update_index_if_able() unconditionally.

1b8ac5ead5 git_open(): untangle possible NOATIME and CLOEXEC interactions
The way we structured the fallback/retry mechanism for opening with
O_NOATIME and O_CLOEXEC meant that if we failed due to lack of
support to open the file with O_NOATIME option (i.e. EINVAL), we
would still try to drop O_CLOEXEC first and retry, and then drop
O_NOATIME.  A platform on which O_NOATIME is defined in the header
without support from the kernel wouldn't have a chance to open with
O_CLOEXEC option due to this code structure.

Arguably, O_CLOEXEC is more important than O_NOATIME, as the latter
is mostly about performance, while the former can affect correctness.

Instead use O_CLOEXEC to open the file, and then use fcntl(2) to set
O_NOATIME on the resulting file descriptor.  open(2) itself does not
cause atime to be updated according to Linus [*1*].

The helper to do the former can be usable in the codepath in
ce_compare_data() that was recently added to open a file descriptor
with O_CLOEXEC; use it while we are at it.

a0a6cb9662 read-cache: make sure file handles are not inherited by child processes
This fixes "convert: add filter.<driver>.process option" (edcc8581) on
Windows.

Consider the case of a file that requires filtering and is present in
branch A but not in branch B. If A is the current HEAD and we checkout B
then the following happens:

1. ce_compare_data() opens the file
2.   index_fd() detects that the file requires to run a clean filter and
     calls index_stream_convert_blob()
4.     index_stream_convert_blob() calls convert_to_git_filter_fd()
5.       convert_to_git_filter_fd() calls apply_filter() which creates a
         new long running filter process (in case it is the first file
         of this kind to be filtered)
6.       The new filter process inherits all file handles. This is the
         default on Linux/OSX and is explicitly defined in the
         `CreateProcessW` call in `mingw.c` on Windows.
7. ce_compare_data() closes the file
8. Git unlinks the file as it is not present in B

The unlink operation does not work on Windows because the filter process
has still an open handle to the file. On Linux/OSX the unlink operation
succeeds but the file descriptors still leak into the child process.

Fix this problem by opening files in read-cache with the O_CLOEXEC flag
to ensure that the file descriptor does not remain open in a newly
spawned process similar to 05d1ed6148 ("mingw: ensure temporary file
handles are not inherited by child processes", 2016-08-22).

610d55af0f add: modify already added files when --chmod is given
When the chmod option was added to git add, it was hooked up to the diff
machinery, meaning that it only works when the version in the index
differs from the version on disk.

As the option was supposed to mirror the chmod option in update-index,
which always changes the mode in the index, regardless of the status of
the file, make sure the option behaves the same way in git add.

1335d76e45 merge: avoid "safer crlf" during recording of merge results
When merge_recursive() decides what the correct blob object merge
result for a path should be, it uses update_file_flags() helper
function to write it out to a working tree file and then calls
add_cacheinfo().  The add_cacheinfo() function in turn calls
make_cache_entry() to create a new cache entry to replace the
higher-stage entries for the path that represents the conflict.

The make_cache_entry() function calls refresh_cache_entry() to fill
in the cached stat information.  To mark a cache entry as
up-to-date, the data is re-read from the file in the working tree,
and goes through convert_to_git() conversion to be compared with the
blob object name the new cache entry records.

It is important to note that this happens while the higher-stage
entries, which are going to be replaced with the new entry, are
still in the index.  Unfortunately, the convert_to_git() conversion
has a misguided "safer crlf" mechanism baked in, and looks at the
existing cache entry for the path to decide how to convert the
contents in the working tree file.  If our side (i.e. stage#2)
records a text blob with CRLF in it, even when the system is
configured to record LF in blobs and convert them to CRLF upon
checkout (and back to LF upon checkin), the "safer crlf" mechanism
stops us doing so.

This especially poses a problem during a renormalizing merge, where
the merge result for the path is computed by first "normalizing" the
blobs involved in the merge by using convert_to_working_tree()
followed by convert_to_git() with "safer crlf" disabled.  The merge
result that is computed correctly and fed to add_cacheinfo() via
update_file_flags() does _not_ match what refresh_cache_entry() sees
by converting the working tree file via convert_to_git().

We can work this around by not refreshing the new cache entry in
make_cache_entry() called by add_cacheinfo().  After add_cacheinfo()
adds the new entry, we can call refresh_cache_entry() on that,
knowing that addition of this new cache entry would have removed the
stale cache entries that had CRLF in stage #2 that were carried over
before the renormalizing merge started and will not interfere with
the correct recording of the result.

The test update was taken from a series by Torsten Bögershausen
that attempted to fix this with a different approach.

4e55ed32db add: add --chmod=+x / --chmod=-x options
The executable bit will not be detected (and therefore will not be
set) for paths in a repository with `core.filemode` set to false,
though the users may still wish to add files as executable for
compatibility with other users who _do_ have `core.filemode`
functionality.  For example, Windows users adding shell scripts may
wish to add them as executable for compatibility with users on
non-Windows.

Although this can be done with a plumbing command
(`git update-index --add --chmod=+x foo`), teaching the `git-add`
command allows users to set a file executable with a command that
they're already familiar with.

435ec090ec config: add core.untrackedCache
When we know that mtime on directory as given by the environment
is usable for the purpose of untracked cache, we may want the
untracked cache to be always used without any mtime test or
kernel name check being performed.

Also when we know that mtime is not usable for the purpose of
untracked cache, for example because the repo is shared over a
network file system, we may want the untracked-cache to be
automatically removed from the index.

Allow the user to express such preference by setting the
'core.untrackedCache' configuration variable, which can take
'keep', 'false', or 'true' and default to 'keep'.

When read_index_from() is called, it now adds or removes the
untracked cache in the index to respect the value of this
variable. So it does nothing if the value is `keep` or if the
variable is unset; it adds the untracked cache if the value is
`true`; and it removes the cache if the value is `false`.

`git update-index --[no-|force-]untracked-cache` still adds the
untracked cache to, or removes it, from the index, but this
shows a warning if it goes against the value of
core.untrackedCache, because the next time the index is read
the untracked cache will be added or removed if the
configuration is set to do so.

Also `--untracked-cache` used to check that the underlying
operating system and file system change `st_mtime` field of a
directory if files are added or deleted in that directory. But
because those tests take a long time, `--untracked-cache` no
longer performs them. Instead, there is now
`--test-untracked-cache` to perform the tests. This change
makes `--untracked-cache` the same as `--force-untracked-cache`.

This last change is backward incompatible and should be
mentioned in the release notes.
