Subject: [PATCH 2/2] fetch-pack: accept "pack" output for packfile URIs
Date: Mon, 13 Jul 2026 15:34:43 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <alVoA5-fDDPwKPZZ@com-76773> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1783982021.git.tnyman@openai.com>

When "index-pack --keep" creates a .keep file, it reports
"keep<TAB><hash>". If the file already exists, index-pack leaves it
untouched and reports "pack<TAB><hash>" instead.

Since dd4b732df7 (upload-pack: send part of packfile response as uri,
2020-06-10), fetch-pack has accepted only the "keep" form for packs
downloaded through packfile URIs. A concurrent fetch can install the
same pack and create its .keep file before another process reaches
index-pack. The latter process then fails even though index-pack
completed successfully.

Accept both successful forms. Add a path to pack_lockfiles only for the
"keep" form, so cleanup removes only a keep file created by the current
process and preserves a pre-existing one.

Add a regression test which pre-creates a keep file and verifies that a
fetch succeeds without changing it.
