pack-objects: set number of threads before checking and warning

Under NO_PTHREADS build, we warn when delta_search_threads is not
set to 1, because that is the only sensible value on a single
threaded build.

However, the auto detection that kicks in when that variable is set
to 0 (e.g. there is no configuration variable or command line option,
or an explicit --threads=0 is given from the command line to override
the pack.threads configuration to force auto-detection) was not done
before the condition to issue this warning was tested.

Move the auto-detection code and place it at an appropriate spot.

completion: silence "fatal: Not a git repository" error

It is possible that a user is trying to run a git command and fail
to realize that they are not in a git repository or working tree.
When trying to complete an operation, __git_refs would fall to a
degenerate case and attempt to use "git for-each-ref", which would
emit the error.

Hide this error message coming from "git for-each-ref".

checkout: report upstream correctly even with loosely defined branch.*.merge

When checking out a branch that is set to build on top of another
branch (often, a remote-tracking branch), "git checkout" reports how
your work relates to the other branch, e.g.

    Your branch is behind 'origin/master', and can be fast-forwarded.

Back when this feature was introduced, this was only done for
branches that build on remote-tracking branches, but 5e6e2b48 (Make
local branches behave like remote branches when --tracked,
2009-04-01) added support to give the same report for branches that
build on other local branches (i.e. branches whose branch.*.remote
variables are set to '.').  Unlike the support for the branches
building on remote-tracking branches, however, this did not take
into account the fact that branch.*.merge configuration is allowed
to record a shortened branch name.

When branch.*.merge is set to 'master' (not 'refs/heads/master'),
i.e. "my branch builds on the local 'master' branch", this caused
"git checkout" to report:

    Your branch is based on 'master', but the upstream is gone.

The upstream is our repository and is definitely not gone, so this
output is nonsense.

The fix is fairly obvious; just like the branch name is DWIMed when
"git pull" merges from the 'master' branch without complaint on such
a branch, the name of the branch the current branch builds upon
needs to be DWIMed the same way.

clone: --dissociate option to mark that reference is only temporary

While use of the --reference option to borrow objects from an
existing local repository of the same project is an effective way to
reduce traffic when cloning a project over the network, it makes the
resulting "borrowing" repository dependent on the "borrowed"
repository.  After running

	git clone --reference=P $URL Q

the resulting repository Q will be broken if the borrowed repository
P disappears.

The way to allow the borrowed repository to be removed is to repack
the borrowing repository (i.e. run "git repack -a -d" in Q); while
power users may know it very well, it is not easily discoverable.

Teach a new "--dissociate" option to "git clone" to run this
repacking for the user.

foreach_alt_odb: propagate return value from callback

We check the return value of the callback and stop iterating
if it is non-zero. However, we do not make the non-zero
return value available to the caller, so they have no way of
knowing whether the operation succeeded or not (technically
they can keep their own error flag in the callback data, but
that is unlike our other for_each functions).

isxdigit: cast input to unsigned char

Otherwise, callers must do so or risk triggering warnings
-Wchar-subscript (and rightfully so; a signed char might
cause us to use a bogus negative index into the
hexval_table).

While we are dropping the now-unnecessary casts from the
caller in urlmatch.c, we can get rid of similar casts in
actually parsing the hex by using the hexval() helper, which
implicitly casts to unsigned (but note that we cannot
implement isxdigit in terms of hexval(), as it also casts
its return value to unsigned).

clean up name allocation in prepare_revision_walk

When we enter prepare_revision_walk, we have zero or more
entries in our "pending" array. We disconnect that array
from the rev_info, and then process each entry:

  1. If the entry is a commit and the --source option is in
     effect, we keep a pointer to the object name.

  2. Otherwise, we re-add the item to the pending list with
     a blank name.

We then throw away the old array by freeing the array
itself, but do not touch the "name" field of each entry. For
any items of type (2), we leak the memory associated with
the name. This commit fixes that by calling object_array_clear,
which handles the cleanup for us.

That breaks (1), though, because it depends on the memory
pointed to by the name to last forever. We can solve that by
making a copy of the name. This is slightly less efficient,
but it shouldn't matter in practice, as we do it only for
the tip commits of the traversal.

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.

reachable: mark index blobs as SEEN

When we mark all reachable objects for pruning, that
includes blobs mentioned by the index. However, we do not
mark these with the SEEN flag, as we do for objects that we
find by traversing (we also do not add them to the pending
list, but that is because there is nothing further to
traverse with them).

This doesn't cause any problems with prune, because it
checks only that the object exists in the global object
hash, and not its flags. However, let's mark these objects
to be consistent and avoid any later surprises.

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.

pack-objects: refactor unpack-unreachable expiration check

When we are loosening unreachable packed objects, we do not
bother to process objects that would simply be pruned
immediately anyway. The "would be pruned" check is a simple
comparison, but is about to get more complicated. Let's pull
it out into a separate function.

Note that this is slightly less efficient than the original,
which avoided even opening old packs, since no object in
them could pass the current check, which cares only about
the pack mtime.  But the new rules will depend on the exact
object, so we need to perform the check even for old packs.

Note also that we fix a minor buglet when the pack mtime is
exactly the same as the expiration time. The prune code
considers that worth pruning, whereas our check here
considered it worth keeping. This wasn't a big deal. Besides
being unlikely to happen, the result was simply that the
object was loosened and then pruned, missing the
optimization. Still, we can easily fix it while we are here.
