When we "git checkout $tree", we pull paths from $tree into
the index, and then check the resulting entries out to the
worktree. Our method for the first step is rather
heavy-handed, though; it clobbers the entire existing index
entry, even if the content is the same. This means we lose
our stat information, leading checkout_entry to later
rewrite the entire file with identical content.
Instead, let's see if we have the identical entry already in
the index, in which case we leave it in place. That lets
checkout_entry do the right thing. Our tests cover two
interesting cases:
1. We make sure that a file which has no changes is not
rewritten.
2. We make sure that we do update a file that is unchanged
in the index (versus $tree), but has working tree
changes. We keep the old index entry, and
checkout_entry is able to realize that our stat
information is out of date.

create_note() has a non-trivial interface, and comprises three loosely
related parts:
1. launching the editor with the note contents, if needed
2. appending to an existing note, if append_only was given
3. adding or removing the resulting note, based on whether it's non-empty
Split it along those lines to make the logic clearer: The first part
goes into a new function - prepare_note_data(), with a simpler interface.
The second part is moved into append_edit(), which is the only user of
this code. Finally, the add vs. remove decision is moved into the callers
(add() and append_edit()), keeping the logic for writing the actual note
object in a separate function: write_note_data().

fetch: load all default config at startup
When we start the git-fetch program, we call git_config to
load all config, but our callback only processes the
fetch.prune option; we do not chain to git_default_config at
all.
This means that we may not load some core configuration
which will have an effect. For instance, we do not load
core.logAllRefUpdates, which impacts whether or not we
create reflogs in a bare repository.
Note that I said "may" above. It gets even more exciting. If
we have to transfer actual objects as part of the fetch,
then we call fetch_pack as part of the same process. That
function loads its own config, which does chain to
git_default_config, impacting global variables which are
used by the rest of fetch. But if the fetch is a pure ref
update (e.g., a new ref which is a copy of an old one), we
skip fetch_pack entirely. So we get inconsistent results
depending on whether or not we have actual objects to
transfer or not!
Let's just load the core config at the start of fetch, so we
know we have it (we may also load it again as part of
fetch_pack, but that's OK; it's designed to be idempotent).
Our tests check both cases (with and without a pack). We
also check similar behavior for push for good measure, but
it already works as expected.

Just like other hints such as "Changes to be committed" we show in

is merely a reminder.
Traditionally, it was not made into comments primarily because it
has to be generated outside the wt-status infrastructure, and also
because it was meant as a bit stronger reminder than the others
(i.e. explaining how you resolved conflicts is much more important
than mentioning what you did to every paths involved in the commit).
But that still does not make this hint a part of the log message
proper, and not showing it as a comment is inviting mistakes.

that running "prune" would simply delete them immediately

In practice, this is the case, because only git-repack uses

When we pack all objects, we use only the objects reachable
from references and reflogs. This misses any objects which
are reachable from the index, but not yet referenced.
By itself this isn't a big deal; the objects can remain
loose until they are actually used in a commit. However, it
does create a problem when we drop packed but unreachable
objects. We try to optimize out the writing of objects that
we will immediately prune, which means we must follow the
same rules as prune in determining what is reachable. And
prune uses the index for this purpose.
This is rather uncommon in practice, as objects in the index
would not usually have been packed in the first place. But
it could happen in a sequence like:
1. You make a commit on a branch that references blob X.
2. You repack, moving X into the pack.
3. You delete the branch (and its reflog), so that X is
unreferenced.
4. You "git add" blob X so that it is now referenced only
by the index.
5. You repack again with git-gc. The pack-objects we
invoke will see that X is neither referenced nor
recent and not bother loosening it.

When you resolve a sha1, you can optionally keep any context
found during the resolution, including the path and mode of
a tree entry (e.g., when looking up "HEAD:subdir/file.c").
The add_object_array_with_context function lets you then
attach that context to an entry in a list. Unfortunately,
the interface for doing so is horrible. The object_context
structure is large and most object_array users do not use
it. Therefore we keep a pointer to the structure to avoid
burdening other users too much. But that means when we do
use it that we must allocate the struct ourselves. And the
struct contains a fixed PATH_MAX-sized buffer, which makes
this wholly unsuitable for any large arrays.
We can observe that there is only a single user of the
"with_context" variant: builtin/grep.c. And in that use
case, the only element we care about is the path. We can
therefore store only the path as a pointer (the context's
mode field was redundant with the object_array_entry itself,
and nobody actually cared about the surrounding tree). This
still requires a strdup of the pathname, but at least we are
only consuming the minimum amount of memory for each string.
We can also handle the copying ourselves in
add_object_array_*, and free it as appropriate in
object_array_release_entry.

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.

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.

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.

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.
