bbcde41a70 revision.c: put promisor option in specialized struct
Put the allow_exclude_promisor_objects flag in setup_revision_opt. When
it was in rev_info, it was unclear when it was used, since rev_info is
passed to functions that don't use the flag. This resulted in
unnecessary setting of the flag in prune.c, so fix that as well.

a29b8bcf62 Merge branch 'md/exclude-promisor-objects-fix'
Operations on promisor objects make sense in the context of only a
small subset of the commands that internally use the revisions
machinery, but the "--exclude-promisor-objects" option were taken
and led to nonsense results by commands like "log", to which it
didn't make much sense.  This has been corrected.

2588f6ed8b shallow: offer to prune only non-existing entries
The `prune_shallow()` function wants a full reachability check to be
completed before it goes to work, to ensure that all unreachable entries
are removed from the shallow file.

However, in the upcoming patch we do not even want to go that far. We
really only need to remove entries corresponding to pruned commits, i.e.
to commits that no longer exist.

Let's support that use case.

Rather than extending the signature of `prune_shallow()` to accept
another Boolean, let's turn it into a bit field and declare constants,
for readability.

669b1d2aae exclude-promisor-objects: declare when option is allowed
The --exclude-promisor-objects option causes some funny behavior in at
least two commands: log and blame. It causes a BUG crash:

	$ git log --exclude-promisor-objects
	BUG: revision.c:2143: exclude_promisor_objects can only be used
	when fetch_if_missing is 0
	Aborted
	[134]

Fix this such that the option is treated like any other unknown option.
The commands that must support it are limited, so declare in those
commands that the flag is supported. In particular:

	pack-objects
	prune
	rev-list

The commands were found by searching for logic which parses
--exclude-promisor-objects outside of revision.c. Extra logic outside of
revision.c is needed because fetch_if_missing must be turned on before
revision.c sees the option or it will BUG-crash. The above list is
supported by the fact that no other command is introspectively invoked
by another command passing --exclude-promisor-object.

cbd53a2193 object-store: move object access functions to object-store.h
This should make these functions easier to find and cache.h less
overwhelming to read.

In particular, this moves:
- read_object_file
- oid_object_info
- write_object_file

As a result, most of the codebase needs to #include object-store.h.
In this patch the #include is only added to files that would fail to
compile otherwise.  It would be better to #include wherever
identifiers from the header are used.  That can happen later
when we have better tooling for it.

8aade107dd progress: simplify "delayed" progress API
We used to expose the full power of the delayed progress API to the
callers, so that they can specify, not just the message to show and
expected total amount of work that is used to compute the percentage
of work performed so far, the percent-threshold parameter P and the
delay-seconds parameter N.  The progress meter starts to show at N
seconds into the operation only if we have not yet completed P per-cent
of the total work.

Most callers used either (0%, 2s) or (50%, 1s) as (P, N), but there
are oddballs that chose more random-looking values like 95%.

For a smoother workload, (50%, 1s) would allow us to start showing
the progress meter earlier than (0%, 2s), while keeping the chance
of not showing progress meter for long running operation the same as
the latter.  For a task that would take 2s or more to complete, it
is likely that less than half of it would complete within the first
second, if the workload is smooth.  But for a spiky workload whose
earlier part is easier, such a setting is likely to fail to show the
progress meter entirely and (0%, 2s) is more appropriate.

But that is merely a theory.  Realistically, it is of dubious value
to ask each codepath to carefully consider smoothness of their
workload and specify their own setting by passing two extra
parameters.  Let's simplify the API by dropping both parameters and
have everybody use (0%, 2s).

Oh, by the way, the percent-threshold parameter and the structure
member were consistently misspelled, which also is now fixed ;-)

dddbad728c timestamp_t: a new data type for timestamps
Git's source code assumes that unsigned long is at least as precise as
time_t. Which is incorrect, and causes a lot of problems, in particular
where unsigned long is only 32-bit (notably on Windows, even in 64-bit
versions).

So let's just use a more appropriate data type instead. In preparation
for this, we introduce the new `timestamp_t` data type.

By necessity, this is a very, very large patch, as it has to replace all
timestamps' data type in one go.

As we will use a data type that is not necessarily identical to `time_t`,
we need to be very careful to use `time_t` whenever we interact with the
system functions, and `timestamp_t` everywhere else.

067fbd4105 introduce "preciousObjects" repository extension
If this extension is used in a repository, then no
operations should run which may drop objects from the object
storage. This can be useful if you are sharing that storage
with other repositories whose refs you cannot see.

For instance, if you do:

  $ git clone -s parent child
  $ git -C parent config extensions.preciousObjects true
  $ git -C parent config core.repositoryformatversion 1

you now have additional safety when running git in the
parent repository. Prunes and repacks will bail with an
error, and `git gc` will skip those operations (it will
continue to pack refs and do other non-object operations).
Older versions of git, when run in the repository, will
fail on every operation.

Note that we do not set the preciousObjects extension by
default when doing a "clone -s", as doing so breaks
backwards compatibility. It is a decision the user should
make explicitly.

`git prune --worktrees` was pruning worktrees which were non-existent OR
expired, while it rather should prune those which are orphaned AND
expired, as git-checkout documentation describes. Fix it.

Add test 'not prune proper checkouts', which uses valid but expired
worktree.

Modify test 'not prune recent checkouts' to remove the worktree before
pruning - link in worktrees still must survive. In older form it is
useless because would pass always when the other test passes.

ff4056bbc3 prune: turn on ref_paranoia flag
Prune should know about broken objects at the tips of refs,
so that we can feed them to our traversal rather than
ignoring them. It's better for us to abort the operation on
the broken object than it is to start deleting objects with
an incomplete view of the reachability namespace.

Note that for missing objects, aborting is the best we can
do. For a badly-named ref, we technically could use its sha1
as a reachability tip. However, the iteration code just
feeds us a null sha1, so there would be a reasonable amount
of code involved to pass down our wishes. It's not really
worth trying to do better, because this is a case that
should happen extremely rarely, and the message we provide:

  fatal: unable to parse object: refs/heads/bogus:name

is probably enough to point the user in the right direction.

 - If $R/locked exists, worktrees/<id> is not supposed to be pruned. If
   $R/locked exists and $R/gitdir's mtime is older than a really long
   limit, warn about old unused repo.

 - "git checkout --to" is supposed to make a hard link named $R/link
   pointing to the .git file on supported file systems to help detect
   the user manually deleting the checkout. If $R/link exists and its
   link count is greated than 1, the repo is kept.

d3038d22f9 prune: keep objects reachable from recent objects
Our current strategy with prune is that an object falls into
one of three categories:

  1. Reachable (from ref tips, reflogs, index, etc).

  2. Not reachable, but recent (based on the --expire time).

  3. Not reachable and not recent.

We keep objects from (1) and (2), but prune objects in (3).
The point of (2) is that these objects may be part of an
in-progress operation that has not yet updated any refs.

However, it is not always the case that objects for an
in-progress operation will have a recent mtime. For example,
the object database may have an old copy of a blob (from an
abandoned operation, a branch that was deleted, etc). If we
create a new tree that points to it, a simultaneous prune
will leave our tree, but delete the blob. Referencing that
tree with a commit will then work (we check that the tree is
in the object database, but not that all of its referred
objects are), as will mentioning the commit in a ref. But
the resulting repo is corrupt; we are missing the blob
reachable from a ref.

One way to solve this is to be more thorough when
referencing a sha1: make sure that not only do we have that
sha1, but that we have objects it refers to, and so forth
recursively. The problem is that this is very expensive.
Creating a parent link would require traversing the entire
object graph!

Instead, this patch pushes the extra work onto prune, which
runs less frequently (and has to look at the whole object
graph anyway). It creates a new category of objects: objects
which are not recent, but which are reachable from a recent
object. We do not prune these objects, just like the
reachable and recent ones.

This lets us avoid the recursive check above, because if we
have an object, even if it is unreachable, we should have
its referent. We can make a simple inductive argument that
with this patch, this property holds (that there are no
objects with missing referents in the repository):

  0. When we have no objects, we have nothing to refer or be
     referred to, so the property holds.

  1. If we add objects to the repository, their direct
     referents must generally exist (e.g., if you create a
     tree, the blobs it references must exist; if you create
     a commit to point at the tree, the tree must exist).
     This is already the case before this patch. And it is
     not 100% foolproof (you can make bogus objects using
     `git hash-object`, for example), but it should be the
     case for normal usage.

     Therefore for any sequence of object additions, the
     property will continue to hold.

  2. If we remove objects from the repository, then we will
     not remove a child object (like a blob) if an object
     that refers to it is being kept. That is the part
     implemented by this patch.

     Note, however, that our reachability check and the
     actual pruning are not atomic. So it _is_ still
     possible to violate the property (e.g., an object
     becomes referenced just as we are deleting it). This
     patch is shooting for eliminating problems where the
     mtimes of dependent objects differ by hours or days,
     and one is dropped without the other. It does nothing
     to help with short races.

Naively, the simplest way to implement this would be to add
all recent objects as tips to the reachability traversal.
However, this does not perform well. In a recently-packed
repository, all reachable objects will also be recent, and
therefore we have to look at each object twice. This patch
instead performs the reachability traversal, then follows up
with a second traversal for recent objects, skipping any
that have already been marked.

27e1e22d5e prune: factor out loose-object directory traversal
Prune has to walk $GIT_DIR/objects/?? in order to find the
set of loose objects to prune. Other parts of the code
(e.g., count-objects) want to do the same. Let's factor it
out into a reusable for_each-style function.

Note that this is not quite a straight code movement. The
original code had strange behavior when it found a file of
the form "[0-9a-f]{2}/.{38}" that did _not_ contain all hex
digits. It executed a "break" from the loop, meaning that we
stopped pruning in that directory (but still pruned other
directories!). This was probably a bug; we do not want to
process the file as an object, but we should keep going
otherwise (and that is how the new code handles it).

We are also a little more careful with loose object
directories which fail to open. The original code silently
ignored any failures, but the new code will complain about
any problems besides ENOENT.

5955654823 replace {pre,suf}fixcmp() with {starts,ends}_with()
Leaving only the function definitions and declarations so that any
new topic in flight can still make use of the old functions, replace
existing uses of the prefixcmp() and suffixcmp() with new API
functions.

The change can be recreated by mechanically applying this:

    $ git grep -l -e prefixcmp -e suffixcmp -- \*.c |
      grep -v strbuf\\.c |
      xargs perl -pi -e '

af0b4a3b59 prune-packed: avoid implying "1" is DRY_RUN in prune_packed_objects()
Commit b60daf0 (Make git-prune-packed a bit more chatty. - 2007-01-12)
changes the meaning of prune_packed_objects()'s argument, from "dry
run or not dry run" to a bitmap.

It however forgot to update prune_packed_objects() caller in
builtin/prune.c to use new DRY_RUN macro. It's fine (for a long time!)
but there is a risk that someday someone may change the value of
DRY_RUN to something else and builtin/prune.c suddenly breaks. Avoid
that possibility.

While at there, change "opts == VERBOSE" to "opts & VERBOSE" as there
is no obvious reason why we only be chatty when DRY_RUN is not set.
