[PATCH 0/3] wt-status: reduce reliance on global state

[PATCH 0/3] wt-status: reduce reliance on global state

[Shreyansh Paliwal]

In wt-status.c code still relies on some global variables, including
the_repository and the_hash_algo, even in cases where a repository
instance is already available via struct wt_status or struct worktree.

In patch 1/3, replace direct uses of the_repository with repository
instances already available in local structs.

In patch 2/3, update function parameters and calls to pass struct
repository or struct wt_status explicitly where no local repository
access was available.

In patch 3/3, replace remaining uses of the global the_hash_algo with the
hash algorithm stored in the respective repository instance.

These changes remove all direct uses of the_repository and
the_hash_algo from wt-status.c and reduce its dependence on global state.

Shreyansh Paliwal (3):
  wt-status: replace uses of the_repository with local repository
    instances
  wt-status: pass struct repository and wt_status through function
    parameters
  wt-status: use hash_algo from local repository instead of global
    the_hash_algo

[PATCH 1/3] wt-status: replace uses of the_repository with local repository instances

[Shreyansh Paliwal]

Many instances of the_repository are used in wt-status.c even when a
local repository is already available via struct wt_status or struct
worktree.

Replace direct uses of the global the_repository with the repository
instance carried by the local structs (e.g. s->repo, wt->repo).

This helps reduce reliance on global repository state.

One missing information is why is it safe to make this change? If is a
repository field, is it holding the same information, is it always
defined?

Wouldn't it make more sense to use the function argument 'r' here?

Good questions.  Thanks for a quick review.

Yes I should have included explanation as well.
I have explained below, let me know if this thought process
is valid or not.

The replacement of all the_repository with s->repo in this patch are mostly
to cases where a repository instance is already available via struct wt_status.

In the current flow, all functions operating on struct wt_status *s
are called via commit.c. There, status_init_config() calls
wt_status_prepare(), which initializes the struct wt_status and
assigns s->repo from the repository instance passed in by the caller.
As a result, s->repo is guaranteed to be initialized whenever these
functions are invoked.

And commit.c itself still relies on the_repository, within wt-status.c,
the local repository pointer refers to the same underlying
repository object that the_repository would have pointed to, indirectly
until we make commit.c also free of the_repository.

In wt_status_prepare(), s->repo is initialized to r at the top of
the function, so both refer to the same repository instance. However,
using r directly is more explicit and avoids indirect use.
will change this in V2.

Yes my bad, it would throw a segfault error.
I think the best way to handle this is to explicitly check for the
wt to be valid like this,

    if (wt==NULL)
        return 0;

Falling back to the_repository in this case, would probably
defeat the purpose.

Would we benefit from further clean-up, either before or after this
change, to lose the "struct repository *r" parameter, if we know
that we can depend on s->repo being the repository we are collecting
the status information in the wt_status structure for?

Clarification.  This function is like an initializer for the struct
wt_status instance at 's', so it has to take both "struct repository"
parameter, but what I meant was other wt_status_foo() functions that
take both r and s as parameters.  Once s has been initialized and
s->repo becomes valid, passing r as a separate parameter, as if you
can feed a different instance of "struct repo", becomes confusing
and a source of bugs.

Actually wt_status_prepare() is the only function which is taking both
struct wt_status *s and struct repository *r, because it has to initialize
's' with the help of 'r'.
But all the other wt_status_.. helper functions only take one of the following,
i.e. either they take struct wt_status *s which is fine, or they take
struct repository *r. 

If we trace the callers of the functions with struct repository *r,
they are either being called in wt_status.c in which s->repo is being passed
as a parameter at the end so it shouldn't cause any issues,
and for any other file callers, the_repository is being passed,
so to remove struct repository *r, we would have to setup struct wt_status
in those files as well.

Best,
Shreyansh

You're correct, but I had the same reaction as Junio initially as I was 
confused by the functions that take a "struct repository" and "struct 
wt_status_state" which does not contain a repository, but at first 
glance looks a lot like "struct wt_status" which does.

Thanks

Yes, a few more context lines makes it is clear that either is safe.

That would change the behavior of the function though as it will no 
longer check if the rebase directories exist. You should pass the 
repository down from the caller.

[PATCH 2/3] wt-status: pass struct repository and wt_status through function parameters

[Shreyansh Paliwal]

Some functions in wt-status.c relied on the_repository because no
repository instance was available in their local scope.

Update these functions to accept struct repository or struct
wt_status as parameters, and adjust callers accordingly.

Replace remaining uses of the_repository in these functions with the
passed-in repository instance.

This completely removes the use of the_repository global variable
in wt-status.c.

[PATCH 3/3] wt-status: use hash_algo from local repository instead of global the_hash_algo

[Shreyansh Paliwal]

wt-status.c uses the global the_hash_algo even though a repository
instance is already available via struct repository *r.

Replace uses of the_hash_algo with the hash algorithm stored in the
associated repository (r->hash_algo).

This removes another dependency on global state and keeps wt-status
consistent with local repository usage.

We cannot remove `USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE` yet, because the changes done only
remove the direct use of the_hash_algo and the_repository,
but 'USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE' is for all the global variables
that are still in use.

In particular wt-status.c still relies on the following globals,

* core_apply_sparse_checkout, this is already being addressed in an
ongoing patch series [1], so I intentionally did not modify it.

* comment_line_str and DEFAULT_ABBREV, these both still are used in
wt-status.c but they dont have any local instance in wt-status.c,
or in any other form.

Removing these would require a wider refactoring (adding in struct wt_status,
adding helper functions etc) and I believe is better handled as a separate patch series.

Though I require some guidance on the preferred approach for handling
comment_line_str and DEFAULT_ABBREV going forward.

Thanks for reviewing.

Best,
Shreyansh

Yeah, my intent wasn't to have all the cleanup done in this series, but
rather to ensure we have enough information presented. You've already
explained the reason. It would be great if you could add this
information to the cover.

Happy to help out. Generally using an RFC patch series generally has the
best outcome, since it provides material to base discussions on.

Yes sure, I will add in v2.

Thanks, I will try to send an RFC patch series regarding this after the v2.

[PATCH V2 0/3] wt-status: reduce reliance on global state

[Shreyansh Paliwal]

In wt-status.c code still relies on some global variables, including
the_repository and the_hash_algo, even in cases where a repository
instance is already available via struct wt_status or struct worktree.

In patch 1/3, replace direct uses of the_repository with repository
instances already available in local structs.

In patch 2/3, update function parameters and calls to pass struct
repository or struct wt_status explicitly where no local repository
access was available.

In patch 3/3, replace remaining uses of the global the_hash_algo with the
hash algorithm stored in the respective repository instance.

These changes remove all direct uses of the_repository and
the_hash_algo from wt-status.c and reduce its dependence on global state.

The 'USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE' macro cannot yet be removed, since these
patches only eliminate direct uses of the_repository and the_hash_algo,
while other global variables are still referenced.

In particular wt-status.c still relies on the following globals,

* core_apply_sparse_checkout, this is already being addressed in an
ongoing patch series [1].

* comment_line_str and DEFAULT_ABBREV, these both still are used in
wt-status.c but they dont have any equivalent local instances.

[PATCH V2 1/3] wt-status: replace uses of the_repository with local repository instances

[Shreyansh Paliwal]

wt-status.c uses the global the_repository in several places even when
a repository instance is already available via struct wt_status or
struct worktree.

Replace these direct uses of the_repository with the repository carried
by the local structs (e.g. s->repo, wt->repo).

The replacements of all the_repository with s->repo are mostly
to cases where a repository instance is already available via
struct wt_status. All functions operating on struct wt_status *s
are only used after s is initialized by wt_status_prepare(),
which sets s->repo from the repository provided by the caller.
As a result, s->repo is guaranteed to be available and consistent
whenever these functions are invoked.

This reduces reliance on global state and keeps wt-status consistent,
though many functions operating on struct wt_status *s
are called via commit.c and it still relies on the_repository,
but within wt-status.c the local repository pointer
refers to the same underlying repository object.

So if you look into `worktree_git_path()`, it has a certain check

  if (wt && wt->repo != r)
		BUG("worktree not connected to expected repository");

But this is okay with your change, the only question is, do we know wt
is always defined here? Unfortunately, wt can be NULL here, in the same
file we have:

  wt_status_check_rebase(NULL, state);
  -> get_branch(NULL, ...)

Which would crash, no? This is applicable for other parts of the code
too were we're now using wt->repo.

This is also what I was requesting in the previous round, about
explaining why it is safe to make a particular change.

One question, did you run the entire test suite with these changes? I
would hope that we have tests which would fail if my inference is
correct. If not, there's a gap in our tests too.

You’re right, I hadn’t run the tests initially, as I assumed
this was a refactor-only change.

After running the tests, I do see failures, which confirms the issue.
I’ll make sure to always run the tests before sending a patch going
forward.

Thanks for pointing this out :)

The whole point of regression tests is to check that refactors do not 
change the behavior. If you have an account on github or gitlab there 
are some instructions for setting the up the CI to run when you push in 
Documentation/SumbittingPatches.

Thanks

[PATCH V2 2/3] wt-status: pass struct repository and wt_status through function parameters

[Shreyansh Paliwal]

Some functions in wt-status.c relied on the_repository because no
repository instance was available in their local scope.
There is also a specific case in wt_status_check_rebase() where the
worktree can be NULL, so accessing wt->repo may lead to a segfault.

Update these functions to accept a struct repository or struct
wt_status parameter, and adjust callers accordingly. Replace the
remaining uses of the_repository in these functions with the
passed-in repository instance.

This removes the use of the_repository global variable from
wt-status.c completely.

Okay, but this doesn't fix the issue I stated in the previous commit. I
do wonder if we can re-order the commits and pass the repo struct to
functions like 'get_branch()'.

Sorry, I didn’t fully think through what you were pointing out in the
previous version. I initially assumed you were only referring to the
specific call involving wt_status_check_rebase(NULL, state).

So struct worktree *wt is not guaranteed to be defined and can be
NULL. Because of that, relying on wt->repo is unsafe.
Instead, rather than depending on the worktree for repository access (wt->repo),
we can pass struct repository explicitly through the relevant call
stack, like in functions get_branch() and wt_status_check_bisect().
I hope I have understood it correctly.

Best,
Shreyansh

I would say its not that black and white. There's a lot of context
around it. There are places where `struct worktree *wt` should
definitely be defined. So we have to take it on a case by case basis.
Which is what makes these refactors a bit tricky.

But lets say if we do pass struct repository explicitly wherever it is doubtful,
rather than relying on worktree, does it have any downside ?

Re: [PATCH V2 2/3] wt-status: pass struct repository and wt_status through function parameters

[Shreyansh Paliwal]

I tried this out below, and it showed no fails in tests.
After this we can just directly replace all the_repository with 'r' or 's->repo'
without the hassle of checking the worktree is defined or not.
Let me know what you think.
Thanks.

As we're trying to remove uses of "the_repository" I think you should 
use "wt->repo" where we know always "wt != NULL". There are not many 
callers of these functions so is easy to do necessary analysis (see below).

As I said yesterday we know "wt != NULL" here so it is fine to use 
"wt->repo" rather than introduce a new use of "the_repository", you just 
need to explain that in the commit message.

The same is true here.

This function is called from 
builtin/branch.c:reject_rebase_or_bisect_branch() with "wt != NULL". It 
is also called from worktree.c:is_shared_symref() which dereferences wt 
before calling this function so we can assume "wt != NULL" there as 
well. That means we can use "wt->repo" here.

The same analysis for is_worktree_being_rebased() applies here.

The changes to get_branch() below look sensible

Thanks

Thank you for explaining this and for each case.
I have understood where wt->repo can be used safely.
Will make changes and send a v3.
Hopefully that will be good to go :)

These callers pass wt->repo so it's important to explain that the 
callers all have a non-NULL worktree instance so passing wt->repo to 
wt_status_check_rebase() is safe.

That sounds like a good suggestion

[PATCH V2 3/3] wt-status: use hash_algo from local repository instead of global the_hash_algo

[Shreyansh Paliwal]

wt-status.c still uses the global the_hash_algo even though a repository
instance is already available via struct wt_status.

Replace uses of the_hash_algo with the hash algorithm stored in the
associated repository (s->repo->hash_algo or r->hash_algo).

This removes another dependency on global state and keeps wt-status
consistent with local repository usage.

Re: [PATCH V2 0/3] wt-status: reduce reliance on global state

[Shreyansh Paliwal]

I forgot to include the changes in the version.

Changes in V2,
- Explained the changes and the reason more elaborately in commit message.
- Passed struct repository instead of accessing struct worktree in
   wt_status_check_rebase() and shifted this change to patch 2/3 instead of 1/3.
- Added information about leftover globals in the cover.

As well as describing the changes it is very helpful to include a range-diff to
show what's changed - see the --range-diff option to "git format-patch". I've
pasted the range-diff between V1 and V2 below

          wt-status: replace uses of the_repository with local repository instances
      
     -    Many instances of the_repository are used in wt-status.c even when a
     -    local repository is already available via struct wt_status or struct
     -    worktree.
     -
     -    Replace direct uses of the global the_repository with the repository
     -    instance carried by the local structs (e.g. s->repo, wt->repo).
     -
     -    This helps reduce reliance on global repository state.
     +    wt-status.c uses the global the_repository in several places even when
     +    a repository instance is already available via struct wt_status or
     +    struct worktree.
     +
     +    Replace these direct uses of the_repository with the repository carried
     +    by the local structs (e.g. s->repo, wt->repo).
     +
     +    The replacements of all the_repository with s->repo are mostly
     +    to cases where a repository instance is already available via
     +    struct wt_status. All functions operating on struct wt_status *s
     +    are only used after s is initialized by wt_status_prepare(),
     +    which sets s->repo from the repository provided by the caller.
     +    As a result, s->repo is guaranteed to be available and consistent
     +    whenever these functions are invoked.
     +
     +    This reduces reliance on global state and keeps wt-status consistent,
     +    though many functions operating on struct wt_status *s
     +    are called via commit.c and it still relies on the_repository,
     +    but within wt-status.c the local repository pointer
     +    refers to the same underlying repository object.

     +    associated repository (s->repo->hash_algo or r->hash_algo).
      
          This removes another dependency on global state and keeps wt-status
          consistent with local repository usage.

I’m personally a happy user of `--interdiff` in addition. It’s a nice
supplement. :)

Sounds good, I will try out both in the v3.

[PATCH v3 0/3] wt-status: reduce reliance on global state

[Shreyansh Paliwal]

In wt-status.c code still relies on some global variables, including
the_repository and the_hash_algo, even in cases where a repository
instance is already available via struct wt_status or struct worktree.

In patch 1/3, update function parameters and callers to pass struct
repository where no local repository access was available.

In patch 2/3, replace direct uses of the_repository with repository
instances already available in local structs.

In patch 3/3, replace remaining uses of the global the_hash_algo with the
hash algorithm stored in the respective repository instance.

These changes remove all direct uses of the_repository and
the_hash_algo from wt-status.c and reduce its dependence on global state.

The 'USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE' macro cannot yet be removed, since these
patches only eliminate direct uses of the_repository and the_hash_algo,
while other global variables are still referenced.

In particular wt-status.c still relies on the following globals,

* core_apply_sparse_checkout, this is already being addressed in an
ongoing patch series [1].

* comment_line_str and DEFAULT_ABBREV, these both still are used in
wt-status.c but they dont have any equivalent local instances.

Changes in v2:
 - Reordered the first 2 patches for better flow.
 - Instead of relying on wt->repo in wt_status_check_rebase() and
    wt_status_check_bisect() addded struct repository.
 - Added extra explainations in the commit message for the usage of wt
    and being it not NULL.

    -    wt-status: pass struct repository and wt_status through function parameters
    +    wt-status: pass struct repository through function parameters
     
    -    Some functions in wt-status.c relied on the_repository because no
    -    repository instance was available in their local scope.
    -    There is also a specific case in wt_status_check_rebase() where the
    -    worktree can be NULL, so accessing wt->repo may lead to a segfault.
    +    Some functions in wt-status.c (count_stash_entries(),
    +    read_line_from_git_path(), abbrev_oid_in_line(), read_rebase_todolist())
    +    do not have access to a local repository instance and rely on the_repository.
     
    -    Update these functions to accept a struct repository or struct
    -    wt_status parameter, and adjust callers accordingly. Replace the
    -    remaining uses of the_repository in these functions with the
    -    passed-in repository instance.
    +    Add a struct repository *r parameter to these functions, and pass the local
    +    repository through the callers.
     
    -    This removes the use of the_repository global variable from
    -    wt-status.c completely.
    +    get_branch(), wt_status_check_rebase() and wt_status_check_bisect() already
    +    receive a struct worktree *, which can provide access to the repository.
    +    However, some callers pass NULL as the worktree like in wt_status_get_state(),
    +    which would make using wt->repo unsafe and lead to segfault issues.
    +    Add an explicit struct repository * parameter to these functions as well,
    +    and pass the repository through the callers.
    +
    +    Both wt_status_check_rebase() and  wt_status_check_bisect() are called from
    +    branch.c and worktree.c,
    +
    +    * In branch.c, wt is always non-NULL as the functions are called within an
    +    interation over worktrees in prepare_checked_out_branches().
    +    * In worktree.c the functions are called from is_worktree_being_rebased() and
    +    is_worktree_being_bisected() respectively which are further called from
    +    builtin/branch.c in reject_rebase_or_bisect_branch() which has a non-NULL
    +    worktree as it is called inside an iteration over worktrees as well.

[PATCH v3 1/3] wt-status: pass struct repository through function parameters

[Shreyansh Paliwal]

Some functions in wt-status.c (count_stash_entries(),
read_line_from_git_path(), abbrev_oid_in_line(), read_rebase_todolist())
do not have access to a local repository instance and rely on the_repository.

Add a struct repository *r parameter to these functions, and pass the local
repository through the callers.

get_branch(), wt_status_check_rebase() and wt_status_check_bisect() already
receive a struct worktree *, which can provide access to the repository.
However, some callers pass NULL as the worktree like in wt_status_get_state(),
which would make using wt->repo unsafe and lead to segfault issues.
Add an explicit struct repository * parameter to these functions as well,
and pass the repository through the callers.

Both wt_status_check_rebase() and  wt_status_check_bisect() are called from
branch.c and worktree.c,

* In branch.c, wt is always non-NULL as the functions are called within an
interation over worktrees in prepare_checked_out_branches().

* In worktree.c the functions are called from is_worktree_being_rebased() and
is_worktree_being_bisected() respectively which are further called from
builtin/branch.c in reject_rebase_or_bisect_branch() which has a non-NULL
worktree as it is called inside an iteration over worktrees as well.

I am not sure if this is an improvement for callers of the API.

Isn't wt_anything() that takes a worktree "wt" supposed to work with
the wt->repo repository?  Or is the API designed to be used to take
any repository object that is _different_ from wt->repo?  I am
assuming it is the former, and if so, the only effect of adding a
repository parameter to a function that already takes struct
worktree is to invite a programming error to pass a repository that
the wt is not designed to work with, isn't it?

You are right that when a worktree is present, the repository
associated with should be wt->repo, and callers should not be expected
to provide something different.

The reason I introduced an explicit struct repository *r
parameter I have included in the previous reply.

So the intention is not to allow a repository different from
wt->repo, but to make it possible to operate in the absence of a
worktree. When wt is non-NULL, the expectation remains that callers
pass wt->repo, and in the case in which passed repo and wt->repo are
different worktree_git_path() would handle this case in a BUG().

Best,
Shreyansh

Absolutely, In a previous version, the patched directly used `wt->repo`.
I pointed out that there are instances where `wt` could be NULL as per
the existing flow. So this change is in accordance with that. Overall I
think the fix should ideally be around how we work with worktrees.

Funny indentation.

Besides, should we adding a yet another repository parameter to the
function?  The worktree wt knows what repository it belongs to.

Actually adding another repository parameter to both of these functions
is needed because of the calls like wt_status_check_rebase(NULL, state)
and wt_status_check_bisect(NULL, state) from wt_status_get_state().
In the case where wt is NULL, accessing wt->repo can lead to issues.

But stopping thought at that point is not a reasonable thing to do,
immediately after you notice that wt is sometimes NULL.  It merely
means that unconditionally dereferencing wt->repo without thinking
is not good enough, doesn't it?

And what is the case where worktree is NULL?  What are we doing with
worktree set to NULL?  Is it when secondary worktrees do not come
into the picture at all and you can safely use the_repository?

    ... goes and looks ...

Ahh, I think the real culprit that needs cleaning up is the worktree
API, where they pass NULL to mean "the primary worktree that has its
.git/ directory at its natural place".  So it may not necessarily be
the_repository we are dealing with.  There is *no* such client code
right now, but we could imagine that a program that starts in a
repository visits the primary worktree of another repository and
asks the worktree status there, and once such a client code appears,
we need to be able to say "we are dealing with the primary worktree
for this repository".

In the longer run, I think we should fix the worktree API so that
even for the primary worktree we will always have a non-NULL "struct
worktree" object, perhaps with its .id member set to NULL to signal
that it is the primary worktree, so that we do not have to have this
strange "we must pass repository redundantly even though we are
passing worktree" API elsewhere.  Not just this code you are making
worse, path.c:worktree_git_path() already is a victim of this
misdesign of the worktree API.  It has "if wt is given, then the r
parameter should be the same as wt->repo" nonsense, which we
wouldn't have had to have if we had a worktree object even for the
primary worktree,  Look at how ugly that code is, and weep X-<.

And the same misdesign of the worktree API has caused your [1/3] to
pass 'r' but yet still depend on the_repository, which you had to
fix in [2/3], in this function.

So, I dunno.  If you are ambitious, you may want to clean up the
worktree API before this series.  Alternatively you may be able to
punt on the parts of the wt-status that interact with worktree API,
and move the rest of wt-status less dependent on the_repository, but
I am not sure.

Thanks.

Thank you very much for the detailed explanation and for pointing towards
the bigger picture.

From what I have understood, the worktree being NULL refers to the
primary worktree (as it does not indicate which repository so it means in
respect to the_repository). So if we want to access the primary worktree
of a specific repository or even the local repository, NULL does not carry
enough information.
And obviously, using NULL as primary worktree introduces extra checks and
measures as we saw in the previous discussion.

I would be very interested (and the more logical step) to fixing worktree api
first, and then revisiting the wt-status series on top of that, once the API
makes it possible to rely on wt->repo without the NULL risks.

So a possible in the worktree api cleanup approach could be,

* Make primary worktree as an instance of struct worktree but seperate
it by having a marker like id = NULL.

* Add this primary worktree in the struct repository (e.g. repo->primary_wt).

* Update/add functions, then find places that currently pass NULL
and convert them to use primary worktree object instead.

Let me know if I have the right understanding with this, and also would love
to hear more guidance on the direction with this worktree api cleanup. Thanks.

Best,
Shreyansh

I would like to point out that we already have a function which provides
a main worktree, see both `get_main_worktree()` & `is_main_worktree()`.
In short, a worktree with id = NULL seems to be treated as the main
worktree.

The harder part would be correcting all code where `struct worktree *`
is passed and has special meaning for NULL vs non-NULL. See
`strbuf_worktree_gitdir()` which also distinguishes between `wt ==
NULL`, `wt->id == NULL` and `wt->id != NULL`.

So cleanup would require identifying all such spots and fixing them too.

> * Add this primary worktree in the struct repository (e.g. repo->primary_wt).

This also is tricky. We currently already store all worktrees in the
repository in `struct strmap worktree_ref_stores`. Here, for the main
worktree we use '\' (see `get_worktree_ref_store()`). So perhaps we
should formalize using `\` for the main worktree everywhere.

Thanks for these points, I definitely need a better understanding of the
whole worktree api usage and flow before anything further. So I am going to
spend some time on it. Once I have a clearer picture, I will send a
seperate rfc attempt on this cleanup and we can discuss it further there.

Yup.  That is why I upfront said "if you are ambitious" ;-)

Is this a joke, is my terminal broken, or is my MUA hallucinating?
I see a couple of backslashes in the above, and in the code I have
a forward slash instead.

But you are right, ref-store-map does use a slash to indicate the
primary one, while worktree itself uses a NULL, which is somewhat
understandable (NULL would not be a convenient hashmap key).  And I
do not think I see any downsides (other than "This used to take NULL
as the sign of primari-ness but now we need to use a '/' instead"
fixes we need everywhere) to use "/" on the wt->id side offhand.

Thanks.

[PATCH v3 2/3] wt-status: replace uses of the_repository with local repository instances

[Shreyansh Paliwal]

wt-status.c uses the global the_repository in several places even when
a repository instance is already available via struct wt_status *s or
struct repository *r.

Replace these uses of the_repository with the repository available
in the local context (eg. s->repo or r).

The replacements of all the_repository with s->repo are mostly
to cases where a repository instance is already available via
struct wt_status *s and struct repository *r, all functions operating on
struct wt_status *s are only used after s is initialized by wt_status_prepare(),
which sets s->repo from the repository provided by the caller.
As a result, s->repo is guaranteed to be available and consistent whenever
these functions are invoked.

This reduces reliance on global state and keeps wt-status consistent,
though many functions operating on struct wt_status *s
are called via commit.c and it still relies on the_repository,
but within wt-status.c the local repository pointer
refers to the same underlying repository object.

[PATCH v3 3/3] wt-status: use hash_algo from local repository instead of global the_hash_algo

[Shreyansh Paliwal]

wt-status.c still uses the global the_hash_algo even though a repository
instance is already available via struct wt_status.

Replace uses of the_hash_algo with the hash algorithm stored in the
associated repository (s->repo->hash_algo or r->hash_algo).

This removes another dependency on global state and keeps wt-status
consistent with local repository usage.

[PATCH v4 0/3] wt-status: reduce reliance on global state

[Shreyansh Paliwal]

In wt-status.c code still relies on some global variables, including
the_repository and the_hash_algo, even in cases where a repository
instance is already available via struct wt_status or struct repository.

In patch 1/3, update function parameters and callers to pass struct
repository where no local repository access was available.

In patch 2/3, replace direct uses of the_repository with repository
instances already available in local structs.

In patch 3/3, replace remaining uses of the global the_hash_algo with the
hash algorithm stored in the respective repository instance.

These changes remove uses of the_repository and the_hash_algo from
wt-status.c and reduce its dependence on global state.

The 'USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE' macro cannot yet be removed, since these
patches only eliminate some uses of the_repository and the_hash_algo,
while some global variables are still referenced.

In particular wt-status.c still relies on the following globals,

* the_repository, this is still used in functions like worktree_git_path() and
wt_status_check_bisect/rebase() which are dependant on the worktree API and they
are being handled in a seperate patch series[1].

* core_apply_sparse_checkout, this is already being addressed in an
ongoing patch series [2].

* comment_line_str and DEFAULT_ABBREV, these both still are used in
wt-status.c but they dont have any equivalent local instances.

[PATCH v4 1/3] wt-status: pass struct repository through function parameters

[Shreyansh Paliwal]

Some functions in wt-status.c (count_stash_entries(),
read_line_from_git_path(), abbrev_oid_in_line(), read_rebase_todolist())
do not have access to a local repository instance and rely on the_repository.

Add a struct repository *r parameter to these functions, and pass the local
repository through the callers where already they can access a local repository
instance either directly by struct repository *r or
by struct wt_state *s (s->repo).

[PATCH v4 2/3] wt-status: replace uses of the_repository with local repository instances

[Shreyansh Paliwal]

wt-status.c uses the global the_repository in several places even when
a repository instance is already available via struct wt_status *s or
struct repository *r.

Replace these uses of the_repository with the repository available
in the local context (i.e. s->repo or r).

The replacements of all the_repository with s->repo are mostly
to cases where a repository instance is already available via
struct wt_status *s and struct repository *r, all functions operating on
struct wt_status *s are only used after s is initialized by wt_status_prepare(),
which sets s->repo from the repository provided by the caller.
As a result, s->repo is guaranteed to be available and consistent whenever
these functions are invoked.

This reduces reliance on global state and keeps wt-status consistent,
though many functions operating on struct wt_status *s
are called via commit.c and it still relies on the_repository,
but within wt-status.c the local repository pointer
refers to the same underlying repository object.

[PATCH v4 3/3] wt-status: use hash_algo from local repository instead of global the_hash_algo

[Shreyansh Paliwal]

wt-status.c still uses the global the_hash_algo even though a repository
instance is already available via struct wt_status.

Replace uses of the_hash_algo with the hash algorithm stored in the
associated repository (s->repo->hash_algo or r->hash_algo).

This removes another dependency on global state and keeps wt-status
consistent with local repository usage.

in this patch. There aren't that many so the patch is still a manageable 
size.

> In patch 2/3, replace direct uses of the_repository with repository
> instances already available in local structs.
> 
> In patch 3/3, replace remaining uses of the global the_hash_algo with the
> hash algorithm stored in the respective repository instance.

These both look good, though I think the commit message for the second 
patch could be reflowed to give a more consistent line length.

Thanks

Thanks for catching that. I ran the build and test suite after all the commits
at once so it got overlooked.

[PATCH v5 0/3] wt-status: reduce reliance on global state

[Shreyansh Paliwal]

In wt-status.c code still relies on some global variables, including
the_repository and the_hash_algo, even in cases where a repository instance
is already available via struct wt_status or struct repository.

In patch 1/3, update function parameters and callers to pass and use struct
repository instead of the_repository where no local repository access was
available.

In patch 2/3, replace direct uses of the_repository with repository
instances already available in local structs.

In patch 3/3, replace remaining uses of the global the_hash_algo with the
hash algorithm stored in the respective repository instance.

These changes remove uses of the_repository and the_hash_algo from
wt-status.c and reduce its dependence on global state.

The 'USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE' macro cannot yet be removed, since these
patches only eliminate some uses of the_repository and the_hash_algo, while
some global variables are still referenced.

In particular wt-status.c still relies on the following globals,

* the_repository, this is still used in functions like worktree_git_path()
  and wt_status_check_bisect/rebase() which are dependant on the worktree
  API and they are being handled in a seperate patch series[1].

* core_apply_sparse_checkout, this is already being addressed in an ongoing
  patch series [2].

* comment_line_str and DEFAULT_ABBREV, these both still are used in
  wt-status.c but they dont have any equivalent local instances.

[PATCH v5 1/3] wt-status: pass struct repository through function parameters

[Shreyansh Paliwal]

Some functions in wt-status.c (count_stash_entries(),
read_line_from_git_path(), abbrev_oid_in_line(), and
read_rebase_todolist()) rely on the_repository as they do not have access
to a local repository instance.

Add a struct repository *r parameter to these functions and pass the local
repository instance through the callers, which already have access to it
either directly by struct repository *r or indirectly by struct wt_state
*s (s->repo).

Replace uses of the_repository in these functions with the passed parameter.

[PATCH v5 2/3] wt-status: replace uses of the_repository with local repository instances

[Shreyansh Paliwal]

wt-status.c uses the global the_repository in several places even when a
repository instance is already available via struct wt_status *s or struct
repository *r.

Replace these uses of the_repository with the repository available in the
local context (i.e. s->repo or r).

The replacements of all the_repository with s->repo are mostly to cases
where a repository instance is already available via struct wt_status *s
and struct repository *r, all functions operating on struct wt_status *s
are only used after s is initialized by wt_status_prepare(), which sets
s->repo from the repository provided by the caller. As a result, s->repo is
guaranteed to be available and consistent whenever these functions are
invoked.

This reduces reliance on global state and keeps wt-status consistent,
though many functions operating on struct wt_status *s are called via
commit.c and it still relies on the_repository, but within wt-status.c the
local repository pointer refers to the same underlying repository object.

[PATCH v5 3/3] wt-status: use hash_algo from local repository instead of global the_hash_algo

[Shreyansh Paliwal]

wt-status.c still uses the global the_hash_algo even though a repository
instance is already available via struct wt_status.

Replace uses of the_hash_algo with the hash algorithm stored in the
associated repository (s->repo->hash_algo or r->hash_algo).

This removes another dependency on global state and keeps wt-status
consistent with local repository usage.

We haven't seen any reviews on the latest round, but the previous
iterations all had good discussions.  Is everybody find this round
satisfactory?  If so, let me mark the topic for 'next'.

Thanks.

I'm happy with the current version. Makes sense to move it to 'next'.

Yes this looks good, lets merge it (sorry I thought I'd reviewed this 
round when it was posted but clearly didn't actually get round to it)

What's cooking in git.git (Feb 2026, #06)

[Junio C Hamano]

Here are the topics that have been cooking in my tree.  Commits
prefixed with '+' are in 'next' (being in 'next' is a sign that a
topic is stable enough to be used and are candidate to be in a
future release).  Commits prefixed with '-' are only in 'seen', and
aren't considered "accepted" at all and may be annotated with an URL
to a message that raises issues but they are no means exhaustive.  A
topic without enough support may be discarded after a long period of
no activity (of course they can be resubmit when new interests
arise).

Copies of the source code to Git live in many repositories, and the
following is a list of the ones I push into or their mirrors.  Some
repositories have only a subset of branches.

We will be rewinding the tip of 'next' soonish.

With maint, master, next, seen, todo:

	git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git/
	git://repo.or.cz/alt-git.git/
	https://kernel.googlesource.com/pub/scm/git/git/
	https://github.com/git/git/
	https://gitlab.com/git-scm/git/

With all the integration branches and topics broken out:

	https://github.com/gitster/git/

Even though the preformatted documentation in HTML and man format
are not sources, they are published in these repositories for
convenience (replace "htmldocs" with "manpages" for the manual
pages):

	git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git-htmldocs.git/
	https://github.com/gitster/git-htmldocs.git/

Release tarballs are available at:
