git-svn: fix ls-tree usage with dash-prefixed paths

To find the blob object name given a tree and pathname, we were
incorrectly calling "git ls-tree" with a "--" argument followed
by the pathname of the file we wanted to get.

  git ls-tree <TREE> -- --dashed/path/name.c

Unlike many command-line interfaces, the "--" alone does not
symbolize the end of non-option arguments on the command-line.

ls-tree interprets the "--" as a prefix to match against, thus
the entire contents of the --dashed/* hierarchy would be
returned because the "--" matches "--dashed" and every path
under it.

avoid possible overflow in delta size filtering computation

On a 32-bit system, the maximum possible size for an object is less than
4GB, while 64-bit systems may cope with larger objects.  Due to this
limitation, variables holding object sizes are using an unsigned long

When large objects are encountered, and/or people play with large delta
depth values, it is possible for the maximum allowed delta size

occurs, surviving result bits may represent a value much smaller than

8. There is no git in $pfxexecpath, but there is one in /foo. Hence,
   /foo/git is run.

9. pack-objects is a builtin, hence, in effect /foo/git-pack-objects
   is run.

As you can see, the way in which we previously set the PATH allowed to

pack-objects: only repack or loosen objects residing in "local" packs

These two features were invented for use by repack when repack will delete
the local packs that have been made redundant.  The packs accessible
through alternates are not deleted by repack, so the objects contained in
them are still accessible after the local packs are deleted.  They do not
need to be repacked into the new pack or loosened.  For the case of
loosening they would immediately be deleted by the subsequent prune-packed
that is called by repack anyway.

This fixes the test
'packed unreachable obs in alternate ODB are not loosened' in t7700.

git-repack.sh: don't use --kept-pack-only option to pack-objects

The --kept-pack-only option to pack-objects treats all kept packs as equal.
This results in objects that reside in an alternate pack that has a .keep
file, not being packed into a newly created pack when the user specifies the
-a option to repack.  Since the user may not have any control over the
alternate database, git should not refrain from repacking those objects
even though they are in a pack with a .keep file.

15 years agot7700-repack: add two new tests demonstrating repacking flaws
Brandon Casey [Fri, 20 Mar 2009 03:47:50 +0000 (22:47 -0500)]
t7700-repack: add two new tests demonstrating repacking flaws

1) The new --kept-pack-only mechansim of rev-list/pack-objects has
     replaced --unpacked=.  This new mechansim does not operate solely on
     "local" packs now.  The result is that objects residing in an alternate
     pack which has a .keep file will not be repacked with repack -a.

     This flaw is only apparent when a commit object is the one residing in
     an alternate kept pack.

  2) The 'repack unpacked objects' and 'loosen unpacked objects' mechanisms
     of pack-objects, i.e. --keep-unreachable and --unpack-unreachable,
     now do not operate solely on local packs.  The --keep-unreachable
     option no longer has any callers, but --unpack-unreachable is used when
     repack is called with '-A -d' and the local repo has existing packs.
     In this case, objects residing in alternate, not-kept packs will be
     loosened, and then immediately deleted by repack's call to
     prune-packed.

     The test must manually call pack-objects to avoid the call to
     prune-packed that is made by repack when -d is used.

Remove total confusion from git-fetch and git-push

The config file is not the only place remotes are defined, and without
consulting .git/remotes and .git/branches, you won't know if "origin" is
configured by the user.  Don't give up too early and insult the user with
a wisecrack "Where do you want to fetch from today?"

The only thing the previous patch seems to want to prevent from happening
is a lazy "git fetch/push" that does not say where-from/to to produce an
error message 'origin not found', and we can do that by not letting
add_url_alias() to turn a nickname "origin" literally into a pathname
"origin" without changing the rest of the logic.
