[PATCH v3 00/28] First class shallow clone

[PATCH v3 00/28] First class shallow clone

[Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy]

Compared to v2 [1], v3 grows a bit. The biggest difference is
.git/shallow is not updated by default (except when you clone from
a shallow repository). When you send something, the "safe" refs that
do not need new shallow roots are accepted at the receiver end, the
others rejected.

To accept those other refs, either use "fetch --update-shallow" or
enable receive.shallowupdate on the receiver side of a push.

Filtering "safe" refs requires walking through some commits, so
it'll be more expensive than normal full clones. This is especially
true for the receiver of a push (see 07/28 and 17/28). I envision
shallow repos are used as upstream to archive old history, so this is
not a good news. Commit cache (or pack v4) might help. We might even
be able to move some work from receive-pack to send-pack to reduce
server load..

[PATCH v3 02/28] send-pack: forbid pushing from a shallow repository

[Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy]

send-pack can send a pack with loose ends to the server.  receive-pack
before 6d4bb38 (fetch: verify we have everything we need before
updating our ref - 2011-09-01) does not detect this and keeps the pack
anyway, which corrupts the repository, at least from fsck point of
view.

send-pack will learn to safely push from a shallow repository later.

[PATCH v3 03/28] clone: prevent --reference to a shallow repository

[Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy]

If we borrow objects from another repository, we should also pay
attention to their $GIT_DIR/shallow (and even info/grafts). But
current alternates code does not.

Reject alternate repos that are shallow because we do not do it
right. In future we alternate code may be updated to check
$GIT_DIR/shallow properly so that this restriction could be lifted.

[PATCH v3 04/28] update-server-info: do not publish shallow clones

Dumb commit walker does not care about .git/shallow and until someone
steps up to make it happen, let's not publish shallow clones using
dumb protocols.

I doubt that pros-and-cons is in this patch's favor.  Without this
patch, if a fetch requests commits just on the surface in this
shallow repository, the walker would happily get the necessary
objects just fine.  If the request has to dig deeper and cross the
shallow boundary, the walker will get a failure and error out.

With this patch, both will error out.  So overall, the patch did not
make anything safer (e.g. preventing from introducing new corruption
on the recipient's end) while breaking a case where it worked just
fine, no?

Or am I missing something?  Not that dumb walkers would matter very
much these days, ...

No you're not. If it may fail, in my opinion it should fail early than
walk all the way and fail. But yeah dropping the patch is fine too. I
don't care too much about dumb walkers.

[PATCH v3 05/28] Advertise shallow graft information on the server end

[Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy]

If either receive-pack or upload-pack is called on a shallow
repository, shallow graft points will be sent after the ref
advertisement (but before the packet flush), so that the client has
the full "shape" of the server's commit graph.

This breaks the protocol for all clients trying to push to a shallow
repo, or fetch from one. Which is basically the same end result as
today's "is_repository_shallow() && die()" in receive-pack and
upload-pack. New clients will be made aware of shallow upstream and
can make use of this information.

Smart HTTP is not affected by this patch. Shallow support on
smart-http comes later separately.

The _shape_ of the information you would want to keep track of for
the shallow cut-off points may exactly be the same as that is for
extra-have endspoints, but it still feels wrong to throw these
shallow cut-off points into a structure called "extra have". After
all, these are objects the other end does not have, which is the
direct opposite of extra-have.

Perhaps a preparatory patch needs to rename the structure type to
object_name_list or something.  And then we can make the variable
names, not typenames, responsible for signalling what they mean,
i.e.

	get_remote_heads(...
        	struct list_of_objects *extra_have,
                struct list_of_objects *shallow_points);

when we introduce the new parameter.

Yuck, and these are not "list-of-objects", either.  They are
"list-of-object-names".

I was thinking of renaming it to sha1_array and what do you know, we
do have 'struct sha1_array' with exact same (or better) functionality
that extra_have_objects provides. Will replace extra_have_objects with
current sha1_array.

[PATCH v3 07/28] shallow.c: add remove_reachable_shallow_points()

[Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy]

When we receive a pack and the shallow points from another repository,
we may want to add more shallow points to current repo to make sure no
commits point to nowhere. However we do not want to add unnecessary
shallow points and cut our history short because the other end is a
shallow version of this repo. The output shallow points may or may not
be added to .git/shallow, depending on whether they are actually
reachable in the new pack.

This function filters such shallow points out, leaving ones that might
potentially be added. A simple has_sha1_file won't do because we may
have incomplete object islands (i.e. not connected to any refs) and
the shallow points are on these islands. In that case we want to keep
the shallow points as candidates until we figure out if the new pack
connects to such object islands.

Typical cases that use remove_reachable_shallow_points() are:

 - fetch from a repo that has longer history: in this case all remote
   shallow roots do not exist in the client repo, this function will
   be cheap as it just does a few lookup_commit_graft and
   has_sha1_file.

 - fetch from a repo that has exactly the same shallow root set
   (e.g. a clone from a shallow repo): this case may trigger
   in_merge_bases_many all the way to roots. An exception is made to
   avoid such costly path with a faith that .git/shallow does not
   usually points to unreachable commit islands.

 - push from a shallow repo that has shorter history than the
   server's: in_merge_bases_many() is unavoidable, so the longer
   history the client has the higher the server cost is. The cost may
   be reduced with the help of pack bitmaps, or commit cache, though.

 - push from a shallow clone that has exactly the same shallow root
   set: the same as the second fetch case above, .i.e. cheap by
   exception.

The function must be called before the new pack is installed, or we
won't know which objects are ours, which theirs.

It is unclear why.  If you fetched from a repository more complete
than you, you may deepen your history which may allow you to unplug
the shallow points you originally had, and remote "shallow root" (by
the way, lets find a single good phrase to represent this thing and
stick to it) may want to replace them, no?

repository???

Can't a ref point at a non-commit-ish?  Is the code prepared to deal
with such an entry (possibly a NULL pointer) in the commit_array
struct?

[PATCH v3 08/28] shallow.c: add mark_new_shallow_refs()

[Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy]

When we receive a pack and the shallow points from another repository,
we may need to add more shallow points to current repo to make sure no
commits point to nowhere. But usually we don't want to do so because
(in future) new shallow points invalidate pack bitmaps and we need to
rebuild them again, which is not cheap.

So the default way is we allow ref updates that do not introduce new
shallow points and mark the others. If the user is fine with new
shallow point addition, we accept the marked refs.

But even so we do not blindly accept all shallow points provided. Some
of them might not point to any commits in the new pack. Some might
even do, but those might be unreachable object islands. Only shallow
points that are reachable from old and new refs can stay.

The way it's implemented is paint down from each ref, attach a bitmap
to each commit where one bit represents one ref. In order to avoid
allocating new bitmap for every commit, we try to reuse the same
bitmap for parent commits if possible. This reduces allocation and
leaks deliberately because it's hard to keep/time consuming track how
many pointers to the same buffer.

In a typical push or fetch, the new pack should not carry new shallow
roots. If the current repo does not have any commit islands refered by
the sender's shallow roots either, this function is just a few
has_sha1_file(). So quite cheap.

Once the sender diverts from that path (or the receiver detects
shallow roots attached to commit islands from remove_reachable_shallow_points),
it'll be a lot more expensive. Pack bitmaps won't help this kind of
commit traversal, but commit cache might.

Hmph.  the use of ->util field in this patch feels that it was
something commit-slab data structure was invented to solve.

... or perhaps make the bitmap into

	struct {

        	uint32_t bits[FLEX_ARRAY];
	}

and refcnt them?

I am Confused.

The loop only made sure that all the elements in the array[] is
still missing (or, ... is this function supposed to be called before
installing a new pack???  It is unclear.  But if new objects were
unpacked while receiving, then there is no "not install the new
objects and check" possible, so I'd assume this is called after
receiving and registering a new pack to the object store).

But then, can it be that you had N-1 "shallow points" originally,
the pack has a reference to a new missing commit, and the array has
N "shallow points" in total?  Or is the caller expected to call this
function with shallow pointing at a pre-transfer shallow points?

Hmph. At this point (again, there is no description on where in the
overall sequence of events this function is designed to be called,
so it is impossible to review the logic), is it expected that we
have seen all the objects under the sun and marked them in a
specific way?

I still prefer memory pools so I just need to do a few free() than
walking through all the commits again and refcnt-- or free() them.

Yes it's called after installing the new packs (or after unpacking).
I'll mention about this.

Another thing I did not mention is all shallow commits we have are
already filtered out by remove_reachable_shallow_points. By the time
you get here, the array only contains the shallow commits we don't
have that may or may not be referenced by a something (oh yeah I did
not handle tags!) in the new pack. So if all of them are missing (i.e.
the new pack does not reference to any of them), they're useless and
can be thrown away.

Sorry to break the patches this way and lose the overall call flow.
It's just too big to put all into one patch. 13/28 is the one that put
the pieces together but basically

 1. receive the remote's .git/shallow
 2. call remote_reachable_shallow_points() to exclude our shallow commits
 3. get the pack and install it (or unpack it)
 4. call this function to determine what new ref needs new shallow
commits from the result of #2

No. At this point we just make sure to have clean flags in commit
objects. paint_down() is the one that walks through and marks them as
seen.

Thanks for a roadmap.  Will find time to re-read the thing with it.

Confusing.

Sounds as if you got the extra ".have" and storing them in the
.git/shallow file (which of course would not make much sense), which
is not what is going on.

Also it is unclear how the sanity check the previous step seems to
make and the new list of shallow commit names this patch adds to
existing functions are designed to interact. I think the whole
design needs a better explanation of the flow at the higher level.

[PATCH v3 12/28] clone: support remote shallow repository

[Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy]

The gist of cloning a remote shallow repository is simple. The remote
gives you a pack and all its shallow roots. All you need to do is set
your .git/shallow correctly.

The rule to create this .git/shallow is simple and more importantly,
cheap: if a shallow root is found in the pack, it's probably used
(i.e. reachable from some refs), so we add it. Others are dropped.

One may notice this method seems flawed by the word "probably". A
shallow point may not be reachable from any refs at all if it's
attached to an object island (a group of objects that are not
reachable by any refs).

If that object island is not complete, a new fetch request may send
more objects to connect it to some ref. At that time, because we
incorrectly installed the shallow root in this island, the user will
not see anything after that root. This is not desired.

There is a stricter method to rule out unwanted shallow roots above:
mark_new_shallow_refs(). But it's expensive and even more so for a
clone because it's proportional to the (potentially huge) number of
commits.

Given that object islands are rare (C Git never sends such islands), a
tradeoff is made to surprise the user occasionally but work faster
everyday. --strict option could be added later to enforce
mark_new_shallow_refs().

[PATCH v3 13/28] fetch: support fetching from a shallow repository

[Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy]

This patch just put together pieces from the previous patches:

 - Before getting the new pack, we need to remove all new reachable
   shallow roots. The remaining roots may or may not be added to
   .git/shallow.

 - After getting the pack, walk all new refs until they connect to
   current refs, or hit the bottom of current repo, or hit new
   shallow roots.

Those refs that hit new shallow roots are rejected because by default
we do not allow to update .git/shallow (the only exception so far is
cloning from a shallow repo, which is more like creating .git/shallow
than updating it)

[PATCH v3 14/28] upload-pack: make sure deepening preserves shallow roots

[Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy]

When "fetch --depth=N" where N exceeds the longest chain of history in
the source repo, usually we just send an "unshallow" line to the
client so full history is obtained.

When the source repo is shallow we need to make sure to "unshallow"
the current shallow point _and_ "shallow" again when the commit
reaches its shallow bottom in the source repo.

This should fix both cases: large <N> and --unshallow.

I think it's ok. If for-each-ref is broken or something the final
output in actual.refs will be different anyway.

You can tell for-each-ref to sort its output in a way you specify,
no?

[PATCH v3 16/28] receive-pack: reorder some code in unpack()

[Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy]

This is the preparation for adding --shallow-file to both
unpack-objects and index-pack. To sum up:

 - status/code, ip/child, unpacker/keeper and i (now ac) are moved out
   to function top level

 - successful flow now ends at the end of the function

Sounds sensible; for a new piece of code, we probably should see if
argv_array API is more appropriate, and I think it is for this case.

Thanks.

[PATCH v3 17/28] Support pushing from a shallow clone

[Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy]

Pushing from a shallow clone using today's send-pack and receive-pack
may work, if the transferred pack does not end up at any graft
points. If it does, recent receive-pack that does connectivity check
will reject the push. If receive-pack is old and does not have the
connectivity check, the upstream repo becomes corrupt.

The pack protocol is updated and send-pack now sends all shallow
grafts before it sends the commands, if the repo is shallow. This
protocol extension will break current receive-pack, which is intended,
mostly to stop corrupting the upstream repo.

Changes on the receiver are similar to what has been done in
fetch-pack, i.e. filter out refs that require new shallow roots then
go along as usual.

[PATCH v3 18/28] New var GIT_SHALLOW_FILE to propagate --shallow-file to subprocesses

[Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy]

This may be needed when a hook is run after a new shallow pack is
received, but .git/shallow is not settled yet. A temporary shallow
file to plug all loose ends should be used instead. GIT_SHALLOW_FILE
is overriden by --shallow-file.

--shallow-file does not work in this case because the hook may spawn
many git subprocesses and the launch commands do not have
--shallow-file as it's a recent addition.

[PATCH v3 20/28] receive-pack: allow pushing with new shallow roots

[Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy]

This is more expensive than the current mode and potentially
invalidates caches like pack bitmaps. It's only enabled if
receive.shallowupdate is on.

[PATCH v3 27/28] clone: use git protocol for cloning shallow repo locally

[Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy]

clone_local() does not handle $SRC/shallow. It could be made so, but
it's simpler to use fetch-pack/upload-pack instead.

This used by be caught by the check in upload-pack, which is triggered
by transport_get_remote_refs(), even in local clone case. The check is
now gone and check_everything_connected() should catch the result
incomplete repo. But check_everything_connected() will soon be skipped
in local clone case, opening a door to corrupt repo. This patch should
close that door.

This patch teaches "prune" to remove shallow roots that are no longer
reachable from any refs (e.g. when the relevant refs are removed).

[PATCH v4 00/28] First class shallow clone

[Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy]

This reroll should fix all comments I have received in v3. I reordered
the shallow checks a bit so in common case it should be as cheap as
a normal fetch or push. See 08/28 and 20/28 for the big picture. I'm not
entirely happy with the hook issue in 20/28, but it looks good enough
for me. There are a few XXXes for further improvement, but I'll keep
them until this lands.

To recap, this series allows you to clone from a shallow repo, push to
or fetch from any shallow repo. Normally it will reject new refs
that introduce new shallow boundaries to your repository, so if you're
in a full clone, it will always stay a full clone. Use "fetch
--update-shallow" or set receive.shallowupdate to accept those refs.

Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy (28):
  transport.h: remove send_pack prototype, already defined in send-pack.h
  Replace struct extra_have_objects with struct sha1_array
  send-pack: forbid pushing from a shallow repository
  clone: prevent --reference to a shallow repository
  Make the sender advertise shallow commits to the receiver
  connect.c: teach get_remote_heads to parse "shallow" lines
  shallow.c: extend setup_*_shallow() to accept extra shallow commits
  shallow.c: the 8 steps to select new commits for .git/shallow
  shallow.c: steps 6 and 7 to select new commits for .git/shallow
  fetch-pack.c: move shallow update code out of fetch_pack()
  fetch-pack.h: one statement per bitfield declaration
  clone: support remote shallow repository
  fetch: support fetching from a shallow repository
  upload-pack: make sure deepening preserves shallow roots
  fetch: add --update-shallow to accept refs that update .git/shallow
  receive-pack: reorder some code in unpack()
  receive/send-pack: support pushing from a shallow clone
  New var GIT_SHALLOW_FILE to propagate --shallow-file to subprocesses
  connected.c: add new variant that runs with --shallow-file
  receive-pack: allow pushes that update .git/shallow
  send-pack: support pushing to a shallow clone
  remote-curl: pass ref SHA-1 to fetch-pack as well
  Support shallow fetch/clone over smart-http
  receive-pack: support pushing to a shallow clone via http
  send-pack: support pushing from a shallow clone via http
  clone: use git protocol for cloning shallow repo locally
  prune: clean .git/shallow after pruning objects
  git-clone.txt: remove shallow clone limitations

[PATCH v4 03/28] send-pack: forbid pushing from a shallow repository

[Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy]

send-pack can send a pack with loose ends to the server.  receive-pack
before 6d4bb38 (fetch: verify we have everything we need before
updating our ref - 2011-09-01) does not detect this and keeps the pack
anyway, which corrupts the repository, at least from fsck point of
view.

send-pack will learn to safely push from a shallow repository later.

[PATCH v4 04/28] clone: prevent --reference to a shallow repository

[Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy]

If we borrow objects from another repository, we should also pay
attention to their $GIT_DIR/shallow (and even info/grafts). But
current alternates code does not.

Reject alternate repos that are shallow because we do not do it
right. In future the alternate code may be updated to check
$GIT_DIR/shallow properly so that this restriction could be lifted.

[PATCH v4 05/28] Make the sender advertise shallow commits to the receiver

[Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy]

If either receive-pack or upload-pack is called on a shallow
repository, shallow commits (*) will be sent after the ref
advertisement (but before the packet flush), so that the receiver has
the full "shape" of the sender's commit graph. This will be needed for
the receiver to update its .git/shallow if necessary.

This breaks the protocol for all clients trying to push to a shallow
repo, or fetch from one. Which is basically the same end result as
today's "is_repository_shallow() && die()" in receive-pack and
upload-pack. New clients will be made aware of shallow upstream and
can make use of this information.

The sender must send all shallow commits that are sent in the
following pack. It may send more shallow commits than necessary.

upload-pack for example may choose to advertise no shallow commits if
it knows in advance that the pack it's going to send contains no
shallow commits. But upload-pack is the server, so we choose the
cheaper way, send full .git/shallow and let the client deal with it.

Smart HTTP is not affected by this patch. Shallow support on
smart-http comes later separately.

(*) A shallow commit is a commit that terminates the revision
    walker. It is usually put in .git/shallow in order to keep the
    revision walker from going out of bound because there is no
    guarantee that objects behind this commit is available.

[PATCH v4 06/28] connect.c: teach get_remote_heads to parse "shallow" lines

[Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy]

No callers pass a non-empty pointer as shallow_points at this
stage. As a result, all clients still refuse to talk to shallow
repository on the other end.

[PATCH v4 08/28] shallow.c: the 8 steps to select new commits for .git/shallow

[Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy]

Suppose a fetch or push is requested between two shallow repositories
(with no history deepening or shortening). A pack that contains
necessary objects is transferred over together with .git/shallow of
the sender. The receiver has to determine whether it needs to update
.git/shallow if new refs needs new shallow comits.

The rule here is avoid updating .git/shallow by default. But we don't
want to waste the received pack. If the pack contains two refs, one
needs new shallow commits installed in .git/shallow and one does not,
we keep the latter and reject/warn about the former.

Even if .git/shallow update is allowed, we only add shallow commits
strictly necessary for the former ref (remember the sender can send
more shallow commits than necessary) and pay attention not to
accidentally cut the receiver history short (no history shortening is
asked for)

So the steps to figure out what ref need what new shallow commits are:

1. Split the sender shallow commit list into "ours" and "theirs" list
   by has_sha1_file. Those that exist in current repo in "ours", the
   remaining in "theirs".

2. Check the receiver .git/shallow, remove from "ours" the ones that
   also exist in .git/shallow.

3. Fetch the new pack. Either install or unpack it.

4. Do has_sha1_file on "theirs" list again. Drop the ones that fail
   has_sha1_file. Obviously the new pack does not need them.

5. If the pack is kept, remove from "ours" the ones that do not exist
   in the new pack.

6. Walk the new refs to answer the question "what shallow commits,
   both ours and theirs, are required in .git/shallow in order to add
   this ref?". Shallow commits not associated to any refs are removed
   from their respective list.

7. (*) Check reachability (from the current refs) of all remaining
   commits in "ours". Those reachable are removed. We do not want to
   cut any part of our (reachable) history. We only check up
   commits. True reachability test is done by
   check_everything_connected() at the end as usual.

8. Combine the final "ours" and "theirs" and add them all to
   .git/shallow. Install new refs. The case where some hook rejects
   some refs on a push is explained in more detail in the push
   patches.

Of these steps, #6 and #7 are expensive. Both require walking through
some commits, or in the worst case all commits. And we rather avoid
them in at least common case, where the transferred pack does not
contain any shallow commits that the sender advertises. Let's look at
each scenario:

1) the sender has longer history than the receiver

   All shallow commits from the sender will be put into "theirs" list
   at step 1 because none of them exists in current repo. In the
   common case, "theirs" becomes empty at step 4 and exit early.

2) the sender has shorter history than the receiver

   All shallow commits from the sender are likely in "ours" list at
   step 1. In the common case, if the new pack is kept, we could empty
   "ours" and exit early at step 5.

   If the pack is not kept, we hit the expensive step 6 then exit
   after "ours" is emptied. There'll be only a handful of objects to
   walk in fast-forward case. If it's forced update, we may need to
   walk to the bottom.

3) the sender has same .git/shallow as the receiver

   This is similar to case 2 except that "ours" should be emptied at
   step 2 and exit early.

A fetch after "clone --depth=X" is case 1. A fetch after "clone" (from
a shallow repo) is case 3. Luckily they're cheap for the common case.

A push from "clone --depth=X" falls into case 2, which is expensive.
Some more work may be done at the sender/client side to avoid more
work on the server side: if the transferred pack does not contain any
shallow commits, send-pack should not send any shallow commits to the
receive-pack, effectively turning it into a normal push and avoid all
steps.

This patch implements all steps except #3, already handled by
fetch-pack and receive-pack, #6 and #7, which has their own patch due
to their size.

(*) in previous versions step 7 was put before step 3. I reorder it so
    that the common case that keeps the pack does not need to walk
    commits at all. In future if we implement faster commit
    reachability check (maybe with the help of pack bitmaps or commit
    cache), step 7 could become cheap and be moved up before 6 again.

[PATCH v4 12/28] clone: support remote shallow repository

[Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy]

Cloning from a shallow repository does not follow the "8 steps for new
.git/shallow" because if it does we need to get through step 6 for all
refs. That means commit walking down to the bottom.

Instead the rule to create .git/shallow is simpler and, more
importantly, cheap: if a shallow commit is found in the pack, it's
probably used (i.e. reachable from some refs), so we add it. Others
are dropped.

One may notice this method seems flawed by the word "probably". A
shallow commit may not be reachable from any refs at all if it's
attached to an object island (a group of objects that are not
reachable by any refs).

If that object island is not complete, a new fetch request may send
more objects to connect it to some ref. At that time, because we
incorrectly installed the shallow commit in this island, the user will
not see anything after that commit (fsck is still ok). This is not
desired.

Given that object islands are rare (C Git never sends such islands for
security reasons) and do not really harm the repository integrity, a
tradeoff is made to surprise the user occasionally but work faster
everyday.

A new option --strict could be added later that follows exactly the 8
steps. "git prune" can also learn to remove dangling objects _and_ the
shallow commits that are attached to them from .git/shallow.

[PATCH v4 13/28] fetch: support fetching from a shallow repository

[Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy]

This patch just put together pieces from the 8 steps patch. We stop at
step 7 and reject refs that require new shallow commits.

Note that, by rejecting refs that require new shallow commits, we
leave dangling objects in the repo, which become "object islands" by
the next "git fetch" of the same source.

If the first fetch our "ours" set is zero and we do practically
nothing at step 7, "ours" is full at the next fetch and we may need to
walk through commits for reachability test. Room for improvement.

[PATCH v4 14/28] upload-pack: make sure deepening preserves shallow roots

[Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy]

When "fetch --depth=N" where N exceeds the longest chain of history in
the source repo, usually we just send an "unshallow" line to the
client so full history is obtained.

When the source repo is shallow we need to make sure to "unshallow"
the current shallow point _and_ "shallow" again when the commit
reaches its shallow bottom in the source repo.

This should fix both cases: large <N> and --unshallow.

The same steps are done as in when --update-shallow is not given. The
only difference is we now add all shallow commits in "ours" and
"theirs" to .git/shallow (aka "step 8").

[PATCH v4 16/28] receive-pack: reorder some code in unpack()

[Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy]

This is the preparation for adding --shallow-file to both
unpack-objects and index-pack. To sum up:

 - struct argv_array used instead of const char **

 - status/code, ip/child, unpacker/keeper are moved out to function
   top level

 - successful flow now ends at the end of the function

[PATCH v4 18/28] New var GIT_SHALLOW_FILE to propagate --shallow-file to subprocesses

[Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy]

This may be needed when a hook is run after a new shallow pack is
received, but .git/shallow is not settled yet. A temporary shallow
file to plug all loose ends should be used instead. GIT_SHALLOW_FILE
is overriden by --shallow-file.

--shallow-file does not work in this case because the hook may spawn
many git subprocesses and the launch commands do not have
--shallow-file as it's a recent addition.

[PATCH v4 20/28] receive-pack: allow pushes that update .git/shallow

[Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy]

The basic 8 steps to update .git/shallow does not fully apply here
because the user may choose to accept just a few refs (while fetch
always accepts all refs). The steps are modified a bit.

1-6. same as before. After calling assign_shallow_commits_to_refs at
   step 6, each shallow commit has a bitmap that marks all refs that
   require it.

7. mark all "ours" shallow commits that are reachable from any
   refs. We will need to do the original step 7 on them later.

8. go over all shallow commit bitmaps, mark refs that require new
   shallow commits.

9. setup a strict temporary shallow file to plug all the holes, even
   if it may cut some of our history short. This file is used by all
   hooks. The hooks could use --shallow-file=$GIT_DIR/shallow to
   overcome this and reach everything in current repo.

10. go over the new refs one by one. For each ref, do the reachability
   test if it needs a shallow commit on the list from step 7. Remove
   it if it's reachable from our refs. Gather all required shallow
   commits, run check_everything_connected() with the new ref, then
   install them to .git/shallow.

This mode is disabled by default and can be turned on with
receive.shallowupdate

I'm getting test failures in 'next' with GIT_TEST_HTTPD set, and they
are bisectable to this patch (actually, the moral equivalent of it, as
it looks like the commit message was tweaked along with the test number
when it was applied). The failures look like this:

If you do end up tweaking the test, you may also want to fix:

> +LIB_HTTPD_PORT=${LIB_HTTPD_PORT-'5536'}
> +. "$TEST_DIRECTORY"/lib-httpd.sh

Since the test number got switched, it would be nice to tweak the port
number to match it, in case the real t5536 ever starts using lib-httpd.

[PATCH] t5537: fix incorrect expectation in test case 10

[Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy]

Commit 48d25ca adds a new commit "7" to the repo that the next test case
in commit 1609488 clones from. But the next test case does not expect
this commit. For these tests, it's the bottom that's important, not
the top. Fix the expected commit list.

While at it, fix the default http port number to 5537. Otherwise when
t5536 learns to test httpd, running test in parallel may fail.

 I obviously made a mistake with patch reordering or something. And
 embarassing because I did not run tests with GIT_TEST_HTTPD again
 before submission.

Given the test output, I had a feeling it was something like this but
didn't dive in (and figured it would be obvious to you).

Patch looks sane. Thanks for a quick turnaround.

[PATCH v4 26/28] clone: use git protocol for cloning shallow repo locally

[Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy]

clone_local() does not handle $SRC/shallow. It could be made so, but
it's simpler to use fetch-pack/upload-pack instead.

This used to be caught by the check in upload-pack, which is triggered
by transport_get_remote_refs(), even in local clone case. The check is
now gone and check_everything_connected() should catch the result
incomplete repo. But check_everything_connected() will soon be skipped
in local clone case, opening a door to corrupt repo. This patch should
close that door.
