"git fetch" learned a new option "--negotiation-tip" to limit the

repository has a lot of refs that have little to do with the

When a user fetches:
- at least one up-to-date ref and at least one non-up-to-date ref,
- using HTTP with protocol v0 (or something else that uses the fetch
command of a remote helper)
some refs might not be updated after the fetch.
This bug was introduced in commit 989b8c4452 ("fetch-pack: put shallow
info in output parameter", 2018-06-28) which allowed transports to
report the refs that they have fetched in a new out-parameter
"fetched_refs". If they do so, transport_fetch_refs() makes this
information available to its caller.
Users of "fetched_refs" rely on the following 3 properties:
(1) it is the complete list of refs that was passed to
transport_fetch_refs(),
(2) it has shallow information (REF_STATUS_REJECT_SHALLOW set if
relevant), and
(3) it has updated OIDs if ref-in-want was used (introduced after
989b8c4452).
In an effort to satisfy (1), whenever transport_fetch_refs()
filters the refs sent to the transport, it re-adds the filtered refs to
whatever the transport supplies before returning it to the user.
However, the implementation in 989b8c4452 unconditionally re-adds the
filtered refs without checking if the transport refrained from reporting
anything in "fetched_refs" (which it is allowed to do), resulting in an
incomplete list, no longer satisfying (1).
An earlier effort to resolve this [1] solved the issue by readding the
filtered refs only if the transport did not refrain from reporting in
"fetched_refs", but after further discussion, it seems that the better
solution is to revert the API change that introduced "fetched_refs".
This API change was first suggested as part of a ref-in-want
implementation that allowed for ref patterns and, thus, there could be
drastic differences between the input refs and the refs actually fetched
[2]; we eventually decided to only allow exact ref names, but this API
change remained even though its necessity was decreased.
Therefore, revert this API change by reverting commit 989b8c4452, and
make receive_wanted_refs() update the OIDs in the sought array (like how
update_shallow() updates shallow information in the sought array)
instead. A test is also included to show that the user-visible bug
discussed at the beginning of this commit message no longer exists.

Implement support for fetch.fsck.* corresponding with the existing
receive.fsck.*. This allows for pedantically cloning repositories with
specific issues without turning off fetch.fsckObjects.
One such repository is https://github.com/robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh.git
which before this change will emit this error when cloned with
fetch.fsckObjects:
error: object 2b7227859263b6aabcc28355b0b994995b7148b6: zeroPaddedFilemode: contains zero-padded file modes
fatal: Error in object
fatal: index-pack failed
Now with fetch.fsck.zeroPaddedFilemode=warn we'll warn about that
issue, but the clone will succeed:
warning: object 2b7227859263b6aabcc28355b0b994995b7148b6: zeroPaddedFilemode: contains zero-padded file modes

warning: object 84df066176c8da3fd59b13731a86d90f4f1e5c9d: zeroPaddedFilemode: contains zero-padded file modes
The motivation for this is to be able to turn on fetch.fsckObjects
globally across a fleet of computers but still be able to manually
clone various legacy repositories by either white-listing specific
issues, or better yet whitelist specific objects.
The use of --git-dir=* instead of -C in the tests could be considered
somewhat archaic, but the tests I'm adding here are duplicating the
corresponding receive.* tests with as few changes as possible.

Introduce a new negotiation algorithm used during fetch that skips
commits in an effort to find common ancestors faster. The skips grow
similarly to the Fibonacci sequence as the commit walk proceeds further
away from the tips. The skips may cause unnecessary commits to be
included in the packfile, but the negotiation step typically ends more
quickly.
Usage of this algorithm is guarded behind the configuration flag
fetch.negotiationAlgorithm.

During negotiation, fetch-pack eventually reports as "have" lines all
commits reachable from all refs. Allow the user to restrict the commits
sent in this way by providing a whitelist of tips; only the tips
themselves and their ancestors will be sent.
Both globs and single objects are supported.
This feature is only supported for protocols that support connect or
stateless-connect (such as HTTP with protocol v2).
This will speed up negotiation when the repository has multiple
relatively independent branches (for example, when a repository
interacts with multiple repositories, such as with linux-next [1] and
torvalds/linux [2]), and the user knows which local branch is likely to
have commits in common with the upstream branch they are fetching.

When fetching, connectivity is checked after the shallow file is
updated. There are 2 issues with this: (1) the connectivity check is
only performed up to ancestors of existing refs (which is not thorough
enough if we were deepening an existing ref in the first place), and (2)
there is no rollback of the shallow file if the connectivity check
fails.
To solve (1), update the connectivity check to check the ancestry chain
completely in the case of a deepening fetch by refraining from passing
"--not --all" when invoking rev-list in connected.c.
To solve (2), have fetch_pack() perform its own connectivity check
before updating the shallow file. To support existing use cases in which
"git fetch-pack" is used to download objects without much regard as to
the connectivity of the resulting objects with respect to the existing
repository, the connectivity check is only done if necessary (that is,
the fetch is not a clone, and the fetch involves shallow/deepen
functionality). "git fetch" still performs its own connectivity check,
preserving correctness but sometimes performing redundant work. This
redundancy is mitigated by the fact that fetch_pack() reports if it has
performed a connectivity check itself, and if the transport supports
connect or stateless-connect, it will bubble up that report so that "git
fetch" knows not to perform the connectivity check in such a case.
This was noticed when a user tried to deepen an existing repository by
fetching with --no-shallow from a server that did not send all necessary
objects - the connectivity check as run by "git fetch" succeeded, but a
subsequent "git fsck" failed.

Implement ref-in-want on the client side so that when a server supports
the "ref-in-want" feature, a client will send "want-ref" lines for each
reference the client wants to fetch. This feature allows clients to
tolerate inconsistencies that exist when a remote repository's refs
change during the course of negotiation.
This allows a client to request to request a particular ref without
specifying the OID of the ref. This means that instead of hitting an
error when a ref no longer points at the OID it did at the beginning of
negotiation, negotiation can continue and the value of that ref will be
sent at the termination of negotiation, just before a packfile is sent.
More information on the ref-in-want feature can be found in

Reduce the number of global variables by making the priority queue and

In negotiation using protocol v2, fetch-pack sometimes does not make
full use of the information obtained in the ref advertisement:
specifically, that if the server advertises a commit that the client
also has, the client never needs to inform the server that it has the
commit's parents, since it can just tell the server that it has the
advertised commit and it knows that the server can and will infer the
rest.
This is because, in do_fetch_pack_v2(), rev_list_insert_ref_oid() is
invoked before mark_complete_and_common_ref(). This means that if we
have a commit that is both our ref and their ref, it would be enqueued
by rev_list_insert_ref_oid() as SEEN, and since it is thus already SEEN,
mark_complete_and_common_ref() would not enqueue it.
If mark_complete_and_common_ref() were invoked first, as it is in
do_fetch_pack() for protocol v0, then mark_complete_and_common_ref()
would enqueue it with COMMON_REF | SEEN. The addition of COMMON_REF
ensures that its parents are not sent as "have" lines.
Change the order in do_fetch_pack_v2() to be consistent with
do_fetch_pack(), and to avoid sending unnecessary "have" lines.

When "ACK %s ready" is received, find_common() clears rev_list in an

more readable to explicitly break from the loop instead.
So explicitly break from the loop, and make the clearing of the rev_list
happen unconditionally.

If tag following is required when using a transport that does not
support tag following, fetch_pack() will be invoked twice in the same
process, necessitating a clearing of the object flags used by
fetch_pack() sometime during the second invocation. This is currently
done in find_common(), which means that the invocation of
mark_complete_and_common_ref() in do_fetch_pack() is useless.
(This cannot be reproduced with Git alone, because all transports that
come with Git support tag following.)
Therefore, move this clearing from find_common() to its
parent function do_fetch_pack(), right before it calls
mark_complete_and_common_ref().
This has been occurring since the commit that introduced the clearing of
marks, 420e9af498 ("Fix tag following", 2008-03-19).
The corresponding code for protocol v2 in do_fetch_pack_v2() does not
have this problem, as the clearing of flags is done before any marking
(whether by rev_list_insert_ref_oid() or
mark_complete_and_common_ref()).

When "fetch-pack --all" sees a tag-to-blob on the remote, it
tries to fetch both the tag itself ("refs/tags/foo") and the
peeled value that the remote advertises ("refs/tags/foo^{}").
Asking for the object pointed to by the latter can cause
upload-pack to complain with "not our ref", since it does
not mark the peeled objects with the OUR_REF (unless they
were at the tip of some other ref).
Arguably upload-pack _should_ be marking those peeled
objects. But it never has in the past, since clients would
generally just ask for the tag and expect to get the peeled
value along with it. And that's how "git fetch" works, as
well as older versions of "fetch-pack --all".
The problem was introduced by 5f0fc64513 (fetch-pack:
eliminate spurious error messages, 2012-09-09). Before then,
the matching logic was something like:
if (refname is ill-formed)
do nothing
else if (doing --all)
always consider it matched
else
look through list of sought refs for a match
That commit wanted to flip the order of the second two arms
of that conditional. But we ended up with:
if (refname is ill-formed)
do nothing
else
look through list of sought refs for a match
if (--all and no match so far)
always consider it matched
That means tha an ill-formed ref will trigger the --all
conditional block, even though we should just be ignoring
it. We can fix that by having a single "else" with all of
the well-formed logic, that checks the sought refs and
"--all" in the correct order.

When doing a partial clone or fetch with transfer.fsckobjects=1, use the
--fsck-objects instead of the --strict flag when invoking index-pack so
that links are not checked, only objects. This is because incomplete
links are expected when doing a partial clone or fetch.

When fetching from a repository with large number of refs, because to
check existence of each refs in local repository to packed and loose
objects, 'git fetch' ends up doing a lot of lstat(2) to non-existing
loose form, which makes it slow.
Instead of making as many lstat(2) calls as the refs the remote side
advertised to see if these objects exist in the loose form, first
enumerate all the existing loose objects in hashmap beforehand and use
it to check existence of them if the number of refs is larger than the
number of loose objects.
With this patch, the number of lstat(2) calls in `git fetch` is reduced
from 411412 to 13794 for chromium repository, it has more than 480000
remote refs.
I took time stat of `git fetch` when fetch-pack happens for chromium
repository 3 times on linux with SSD.
