The global variable 'fetch_if_missing' has been moved to a member in 'struct repository', continuing the libification process and allowing per-repository control (such as for submodules). * ty/repository-fetch-if-missing: repository: move fetch_if_missing into struct repository
2026-08-15repository: move fetch_if_missing into struct repositoryTian Yuchen1-4/+4
The global variable 'fetch_if_missing' controls whether a missing object check should prompt a lazy fetch from a promisor remote. In order to continue the libification effort, move it into 'struct repository' and initialize it to 1 by default to keep the previous behavior. builtin/fetch-pack.c, builtin/fsck.c, and builtin/rev-list.c are entered via commands marked RUN_SETUP in git.c:commands[]. Their 'repo' parameter is only NULL when '-h' is given outside of a repository, in which case either show_usage_if_asked() or parse_options()'s own '-h' handling exits the process before returning. We can therefore drop their UNUSED markers and assign to 'repo' directly. builtin/index-pack.c is entered via RUN_SETUP_GENTLY, so its 'repo' pointer can be NULL any time it is run outside of a repository, not only with '-h'. We keep a NULL check there and fall back to 'the_repository'. builtin/pack-objects.c needs two adjustments to make 'repo' reach every 'fetch_if_missing' call site: 'read_stdin_packs()' now takes a 'struct repository *'; 'option_parse_missing_action()', which is registered as an OPT_CALLBACK, receives a 'repo' through the option's 'value' field now. Additionally, update the partial clone documentation to reflect that this is now a per-repository flag.

We'd like to add more logic to git_hash_init(), but many callers skip it and call algop->init_fn() directly. Let's make sure we're consistently using the wrapper by adding a coccinelle rule. Besides the coccinelle file itself, this is a purely mechanical conversion based on the patch it generates. There should be no bare init_fn() calls left (except for the one in the wrapper).

2026-07-02treewide: convert users of `whence` to the new source fieldPatrick Steinhardt1-1/+2
The `whence` field has become redundant now that callers can learn about the exact source an object has been looked up from via the `struct object_info_source::source` field.

2026-07-02odb: add `source` field to struct object_info_sourcePatrick Steinhardt1-3/+3
The previous commit introduced `struct object_info_source` as an opt-in container for backend-specific information, but for now we only moved preexisting data into this structure. Most importantly, the caller has no way yet to learn about which source an object was actually looked up from. Instead, callers have to rely on the `whence` enum to distinguish the object type, but cannot use that enum to tell the object source. Add a `struct odb_source *source` field to the structure and populate it from each backend's lookup path. The `whence` enum is still set and used by callers; it will be removed in a subsequent commit now that `sourcep->source` can identify the backend on its own.

2026-07-02odb: make backend-specific fields optionalPatrick Steinhardt1-2/+6
The `struct object_info` carries two pieces of information about how an object was looked up: - The `whence` enum identifying the backend. - The backend-tagged union `u` exposing backend-specific details (currently only the packed-source case, which records the owning pack, offset and packed object type). The union is populated unconditionally, even though most callers don't care about provenance at all. Split the backend-specific union out into a new public type, `struct object_info_source`, and make the object info structure carry it via just another opt-in request pointer. As with all the other requestable information, callers that need source info allocate a `struct object_info_source` on the stack and point `sourcep` at it; callers that don't care about it simply leave the field as a `NULL` pointer. Adapt callers accordingly. Note that the `whence` enum is strictly-speaking also backend-specific information, so it would be another good candidate to be moved into the `struct object_info_source`. For now though it is left alone, as it will be replaced by a `struct odb_source` pointer in a subsequent commit.

2026-06-15odb: use size_t for object_info.sizep and the size APIsJohannes Schindelin1-3/+3
When `js/objects-larger-than-4gb-on-windows` widened the streaming, index-pack and unpack-objects code paths, in the interest of keeping the patches somewhat reasonably-sized, it left the public ODB API still typed in `unsigned long`. In particular `struct object_info::sizep` and the four wrappers built on top of it (`odb_read_object`, `odb_read_object_peeled`, `odb_read_object_info`, `odb_pretend_object`) still return the unpacked size through `unsigned long *`, so on Windows `cat-file -s` and the `git add` / `git status` paths for a >4 GiB blob silently cap at 4 GiB. Widen the field and the four wrappers. The previous commits already widened the `unpack_entry()` cascade and pack-objects' in-core size accessors, so most of the cascade arrives here with no further work: the temporary shims in `packed_object_info_with_index_pos()` and in `unpack_entry()`'s delta-base recovery path go away, the two `SET_SIZE(entry, cast_size_t_to_ulong(canonical_size))` calls in `check_object()` and the matching one in `drop_reused_delta()` collapse to plain `SET_SIZE`, and `oe_get_size_slow()`'s tail `cast_size_t_to_ulong()` is gone too. What remains narrow are the boundaries this series does not intend to touch: the diff, blame, textconv and fast-import machinery. Even so, this patch is unfortunately quite large.

2026-06-15patch-delta: use size_t for sizesJohannes Schindelin1-2/+2
`patch_delta()` takes the source and delta sizes by value and writes back the reconstructed target size through an `unsigned long *`. That datatype cannot represent a value that exceeds 4 GiB on systems where `unsigned long` is 32-bit (notably 64-bit Windows builds), though, even though the delta encoding itself, the on-disk layout, and the in-memory buffers happily carry such sizes. A `size_t` companion to `get_delta_hdr_size()`, `get_delta_hdr_size_sz()`, was introduced in 17fa077596 (delta, packfile: use size_t for delta header sizes, 2026-05-08) precisely so that `patch_delta()` could be widened without changing the on-the-wire decoding helper's signature. Widen `patch_delta()`'s three size parameters to `size_t` and switch its internal use of `get_delta_hdr_size()` to the `_sz` variant. Then propagate the wider type through the callers.

The `zlib_compression_level` configuration is currently stored in the global variable `zlib_compression_level`, which makes it shared across repository instances within a single process. Store it instead in `repo_config_values`, where eagerly‑parsed repository configuration lives. `zlib_compression_level` is parsed eagerly because it determines compression behaviour for objects and packs – core operations where a lazy parse could lead to unpredictable results and hinder libification. This preserves the existing eager‑parsing behavior while tying the value to the repository it was read from, avoiding cross‑repository state leakage and continuing the effort to reduce reliance on global configuration state.

2026-06-02index-pack: retain child bases in delta cacheArijit Banerjee1-1/+0
When resolving a delta whose result has children of its own, index-pack adds the result to work_head, accounts its data in base_cache_used, and calls prune_base_data(). It then immediately frees that same data. This bypasses the existing delta base cache policy and can force later descendants to reconstruct the queued base again. Let the existing delta_base_cache_limit pruning policy decide whether to keep or evict the data instead. This does not add a new cache or increase the cache limit. The object data is already accounted in base_cache_used before prune_base_data() runs, and the existing pruning and base cleanup paths still release it. On a quiet Ubuntu 24.04 VM with 16 vCPUs, 32 GiB RAM, and local SSD, direct index-pack timings on single-pack Linux fixtures improved as follows: linux blobless: 69.17s -> 57.98s (16.2% faster), RSS flat linux full: 280.72s -> 236.32s (15.8% faster), RSS +1.9% Five-repeat medians on public repositories also improved: git.git: 12.31s -> 10.70s (13.1% faster) libgit2: 3.35s -> 2.88s (14.0% faster) redis: 6.52s -> 5.64s (13.5% faster) cpython: 33.02s -> 31.44s (4.8% faster) The standard p5302 perf test on a smaller git.git fixture was neutral: 5302.9 index-pack default threads: 11.21(38.07+1.33) -> 11.16(37.90+1.31), -0.4% t/t5302-pack-index.sh passed, and GitGitGadget's linux-leaks CI also exercised that test under SANITIZE=leak.

Use a larger buffer size in the code paths to ingest pack stream. * sb/unpack-index-pack-buffer-resize: index-pack, unpack-objects: increase input buffer from 4 KiB to 128 KiB
2026-05-09index-pack, unpack-objects: use size_t for object sizeJohannes Schindelin1-3/+5
When unpacking objects from a packfile, the object size is decoded from a variable-length encoding. On platforms where unsigned long is 32-bit (such as Windows, even in 64-bit builds), the shift operation overflows when decoding sizes larger than 4GB. The result is a truncated size value, causing the unpacked object to be corrupted or rejected. Fix this by changing the size variable to size_t, which is 64-bit on 64-bit platforms, and ensuring the shift arithmetic occurs in 64-bit space. Declare the per-byte continuation variable `c` as size_t as well, matching the canonical varint decoder unpack_object_header_buffer() in packfile.c. With c as size_t the expression (c & 0x7f) << shift is naturally size_t-typed, so the explicit cast that an earlier iteration carried at the use site is no longer needed. While at it, add the same overflow guard that unpack_object_header_buffer() carries: if the cumulative shift would exceed bitsizeof(size_t) - 7, refuse the input rather than invoking undefined behavior. Unlike unpack_object_header_buffer(), which labels this case "bad object header", report it as the platform limit it actually is: a header may be perfectly well-formed and still encode a size we cannot represent locally (notably on a 32-bit build consuming a packfile produced on a 64-bit host).

2026-04-29index-pack, unpack-objects: increase input buffer from 4 KiB to 128 KiBScott Bauersfeld1-2/+1
index-pack and unpack-objects both read pack data from stdin through a 4 KiB static buffer. In index-pack, each fill() flushes consumed bytes to the pack file via write_or_die(), capping every write(2) at 4 KiB. unpack-objects uses the same buffer pattern for reads. On FUSE-backed filesystems every write(2) is a synchronous round trip through the FUSE protocol (userspace -> kernel -> userspace -> back), so the 4 KiB buffer turns a clone into many unnecessary tiny writes with noticeable latency overhead. Increase the buffer from 4 KiB to 128 KiB. Introduce a shared DEFAULT_IO_BUFFER_SIZE constant in git-compat-util.h (next to MAX_IO_SIZE) and use it in index-pack, unpack-objects, and the hashfile layer in csum-file (which already used 128 KiB but hardcoded the value).

2026-03-05odb: embed base source in the "files" backendPatrick Steinhardt1-3/+5
The "files" backend is implemented as a pointer in the `struct odb_source`. This contradicts our typical pattern for pluggable backends like we use it for example in the ref store or for object database streams, where we typically embed the generic base structure in the specialized implementation. This pattern has a couple of small benefits: - We avoid an extra allocation. - We hide implementation details in the generic structure. - We can easily downcast from a generic backend to the specialized structure and vice versa because the offsets are known at compile time. - It becomes trivial to identify locations where we depend on backend specific logic because the cast needs to be explicit. Refactor our "files" object database source to do the same and embed the `struct odb_source` in the `struct odb_source_files`. There are still a bunch of sites in our code base where we do have to access internals of the "files" backend. The intent is that those will go away over time, but this will certainly take a while. Meanwhile, provide a `odb_source_files_downcast()` function that can convert a generic source into a "files" source. As we only have a single source the downcast succeeds unconditionally for now. Eventually though the intent is to make the cast `BUG()` in case the caller requests to downcast a non-"files" backend to a "files" backend.

2026-01-09packfile: move packfile store into object sourcePatrick Steinhardt1-1/+1
The packfile store is a member of `struct object_database`, which means that we have a single store per database. This doesn't really make much sense though: each source connected to the database has its own set of packfiles, so there is a conceptual mismatch here. This hasn't really caused much of a problem in the past, but with the advent of pluggable object databases this is becoming more of a problem because some of the sources may not even use packfiles in the first place. Move the packfile store down by one level from the object database into the object database source. This ensures that each source now has its own packfile store, and we can eventually start to abstract it away entirely so that the caller doesn't even know what kind of store it uses. Note that we only need to adjust a relatively small number of callers, way less than one might expect. This is because most callers are using `repo_for_each_pack()`, which handles enumeration of all packfiles that exist in the repository. So for now, none of these callers need to be adapted. The remaining callers that iterate through the packfiles directly and that need adjustment are those that are a bit more tangled with packfiles. These will be adjusted over time. Note that this patch only moves the packfile store, and there is still a bunch of functions that seemingly operate on a packfile store but that end up iterating over all sources. These will be adjusted in subsequent commits. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2025-11-25builtin/index-pack: fix deferred fsck outside reposPatrick Steinhardt1-3/+18
When asked to perform object consistency checks via the `--fsck-objects` flag we verify that each object part of the pack is valid. In general, this check can even be performed outside of a Git repository: we don't need an initialized object database as we simply read the object from the packfile directly. But there's one exception: a subset of the object checks may be deferred to a later point in time. For now, this only concerns ".gitmodules" and ".gitattributes" files: whenever we see a tree referencing these files we queue them for a deferred check. This is done because we need to do some extra checks for those files to ensure that they are well-formed, and these checks need to be done regardless of whether the corresponding blobs are part of the packfile or not. This works inside a repository, but unfortunately the logic leads to a segfault when running outside of one. This is because we eventually call `odb_read_object()`, which will crash because the object database has not been initialized. There's multiple options here: - We could in theory create a purely in-memory database with only a packfile store that contains the single packfile. We don't really have the infrastructure for this yet though, and it would end up being quite hacky. - We could refuse to perform consistency checks outside of a repository. But most of the checks work alright, so this would be a regression. - We can skip the finalizing consistency checks when running outside of a repository. This is not as invasive as skipping all checks, but it's not great to randomly skip a subset of tests, either. None of these options really feel perfect. The first one would be the obvious choice if easily possible. There's another option though: instead of skipping the final object checks, we can die if there are any queued object checks. With this change we now die exactly if and only if we would have previously segfaulted. Like this we ensure that objects that _may_ fail the consistency checks won't be silently skipped, and at the same time we give users a much better error message. Refactor the code accordingly and add a test that would have triggered the segfault. Note that we also move down the logic to add the packfile to the store. There is no point doing this any earlier than right before we execute `fsck_finish()`, and it ensures that the logic to set up and perform the consistency check is self-contained.

2025-07-23config: drop `git_config()` wrapperPatrick Steinhardt1-1/+1
In 036876a1067 (config: hide functions using `the_repository` by default, 2024-08-13) we have moved around a bunch of functions in the config subsystem that depend on `the_repository`. Those function have been converted into mere wrappers around their equivalent function that takes in a repository as parameter, and the intent was that we'll eventually remove those wrappers to make the dependency on the global repository variable explicit at the callsite. Follow through with that intent and remove `git_config()`. All callsites are adjusted so that they use `repo_config(the_repository, ...)` instead. While some callsites might already have a repository available, this mechanical conversion is the exact same as the current situation and thus cannot cause any regression. Those sites should eventually be cleaned up in a later patch series. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2025-07-16object-file: get rid of `the_repository` in `finalize_object_file()`Patrick Steinhardt1-1/+1
We implicitly depend on `the_repository` when moving an object file into place in `finalize_object_file()`. Get rid of this global dependency by passing in a repository. Note that one might be pressed to inject an object database instead of a repository. But the function doesn't really care about the ODB at all. All it does is to move a file into place while checking whether there is any collision. As such, the functionality it provides is independent of the object database and only needs the repository as parameter so that it can adjust permissions of the file we are about to finalize.

2025-07-01builtin: use default hash when outside a repositorybrian m. carlson1-1/+1
We have some commands that can operate inside or outside a repository. If we're operating outside a repository, we clearly cannot use the repository's hash algorithm as a default since it doesn't exist, so instead, let's pick the default instead of specifically SHA-1. Right now this results in no functional change since the default is SHA-1, but that may change in the future.

2025-04-29treewide: convert users of `repo_has_object_file()` to `has_object()`Patrick Steinhardt1-3/+2
As the comment of `repo_has_object_file()` and its `_with_flags()` variant tells us, these functions are considered to be deprecated in favor of `has_object()`. There are a couple of slight benefits in favor of the replacement: - The new function has a short-and-sweet name. - More explicit defaults: `has_object()` doesn't fetch missing objects via promisor remotes, and neither does it reload packfiles if an object wasn't found by default. This ensures that it becomes immediately obvious when a simple object existence check may result in expensive actions. Most importantly though, it is confusing that we have two sets of functions that ultimately do the same thing, but with different defaults. Start sunsetting `repo_has_object_file()` and its `_with_flags()` sibling by replacing all callsites with `has_object()`: - `repo_has_object_file(...)` is equivalent to `has_object(..., HAS_OBJECT_RECHECK_PACKED | HAS_OBJECT_FETCH_PROMISOR)`. - `repo_has_object_file_with_flags(..., OBJECT_INFO_QUICK | OBJECT_INFO_SKIP_FETCH_OBJECT)` is equivalent to `has_object(..., 0)`. - `repo_has_object_file_with_flags(..., OBJECT_INFO_SKIP_FETCH_OBJECT)` is equivalent to `has_object(..., HAS_OBJECT_RECHECK_PACKED)`. - `repo_has_object_file_with_flags(..., OBJECT_INFO_QUICK)` is equivalent to `has_object(..., HAS_OBJECT_FETCH_PROMISOR)`. The replacements should be functionally equivalent. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2025-04-29object-store: move and rename `odb_pack_keep()`Patrick Steinhardt1-1/+1
The function `odb_pack_keep()` creates a file at the passed-in path. If this fails, then the function re-tries by first creating any potentially missing leading directories and then trying to create the file once again. As such, this function doesn't host any kind of logic that is specific to the object store, but is rather a generic helper function. Rename the function to `safe_create_file_with_leading_directories()` and move it into "path.c". While at it, refactor it so that it loses its dependency on `the_repository`.

2025-04-28index-pack: allow revisiting REF_DELTA chainsDerrick Stolee1-26/+32
As detailed in the previous changes to t5309-pack-delta-cycles.sh, the logic within 'git index-pack' to analyze an incoming thin packfile with REF_DELTAs is suspect. The algorithm is overly cautious around delta cycles, and that leads in fact to failing even when there is no cycle. This change adjusts the algorithm to no longer fail in these cases. In fact, these cycle cases will no longer fail but more importantly the valid cases will no longer fail, either. The resulting packfile from the --fix-thin operation will not have cycles either since REF_DELTAs are forbidden from the on-disk format and OFS_DELTAs are impossible to write as a cycle. The crux of the matter is how the algorithm works when the REF_DELTAs point to base objects that exist in the local repository. When reading the thin packfile, the object IDs for the delta objects are unknown so we do not have the delta chain structure automatically. Instead, we need to start somewhere by selecting a delta whose base is inside our current object database. Consider the case where the packfile has two REF_DELTA objects, A and B, and the delta chain looks like "A depends on B" and "B depends on C" for some third object C, where C is already in the current repository. The algorithm _should_ start with all objects that depend on C, finding B, and then moving on to all objects depending on B, finding A. However, if the repository also already has object B, then the delta chain can be analyzed in a different order. The deltas with base B can be analyzed first, finding A, and then the deltas with base C are analyzed, finding B. The algorithm currently continues to look for objects that depend on B, finding A again. This fails due to A's 'real_type' member already being overwritten from OBJ_REF_DELTA to the correct object type. This scenario is possible in a typical 'git fetch' where the client does not advertise B as a 'have' but requests A as a 'want' (and C is noticed as a common object based on other 'have's). The reason this isn't typically seen is that most Git servers use OFS_DELTAs to represent deltas within a packfile. However, if a server uses only REF_DELTAs, then this kind of issue can occur. There is nothing in the explicit packfile format that states this use of inter-pack REF_DELTA is incorrect, only that REF_DELTAs should not be used in the on-disk representation to avoid cycles. This die() was introduced in ab791dd138 (index-pack: fix race condition with duplicate bases, 2014-08-29). Several refactors have adjusted the error message and the surrounding logic, but this issue has existed for a longer time as that was only a conversion from an assert(). The tests in t5309 originated in 3b910d0c5e (add tests for indexing packs with delta cycles, 2013-08-23) and b2ef3d9ebb (test index-pack on packs with recoverable delta cycles, 2013-08-23). These changes make note that the current behavior of handling "resolvable" cycles is mostly a documentation-only test, not that this behavior is the best way for Git to handle the situation. The fix here is somewhat complicated due to the amount of state being adjusted by the loop within threaded_second_pass(). Instead of trying to resume the start of the loop while adjusting the necessary context, I chose to scan the REF_DELTAs depending on the current 'parent' and skip any that have already been processed. This necessarily leaves us in a state where 'child' and 'child_obj' could be left as NULL and that must be handled later. There is also some careful handling around skipping REF_DELTAs when there are also OFS_DELTAs depending on that parent. There may be value in extending 'test-tool pack-deltas' to allow writing OFS_DELTAs in order to exercise this logic across the delta types.

Now that we have created a new "object-store.c" file though we can easily move the last remaining additional bit of "object-store.h", the `odb_path_map`, out of the header. Do so. As the "object-store.h" header is now equivalent to its low-level alternative we drop the latter and inline it into the former.
