submodule--helper update-clone: allow multiple references
Allow the user to pass in multiple references to update_clone.
Currently this is only internal API, but once the shell script is
replaced by a C version, this is needed.
This fixes an API bug between the shell script and the helper.
Currently the helper accepts "--reference" "--reference=foo"
as a OPT_STRING whose value happens to be "--reference=foo", and
then uses
if (suc->reference)
argv_array_push(&child->args, suc->reference)
where suc->reference _is_ "--reference=foo" when invoking the
underlying "git clone", it cancels out.
With this change we omit one of the "--reference" arguments when
passing references from the shell script to the helper.

"git subtree split --rejoin" creates unrelated histories when
creating a split repo from a raw sub-directory that did not
originate from an invocation of "git subtree add".
Restore the original behavior by passing --allow-unrelated-histories
when merging subtrees. This ensures that the synthetic history
created by "git subtree split" can be merged.
Add a test to ensure that this feature works as advertised.

grep: further simplify setting the pattern type
When
c5c31d33 (grep: move pattern-type bits support to top-level
grep.[ch], 2012-10-03) introduced grep_commit_pattern_type() helper
function, the intention was to allow the users of grep API to having
to fiddle only with .pattern_type_option (which can be set to "fixed",
"basic", "extended", and "pcre"), and then immediately before compiling
the pattern strings for use, call grep_commit_pattern_type() to have
it prepare various bits in the grep_opt structure (like .fixed,
.regflags, etc.).
However, grep_set_pattern_type_option() helper function the grep API
internally uses were left as an external function by mistake. This
function shouldn't have been made callable by the users of the API.
Later when the grep API was used in revision traversal machinery,
the caller then mistakenly started calling the function around

"git grep", 2012-10-03), instead of setting the .pattern_type_option
field and letting the grep_commit_pattern_type() to take care of the

(e.g. --basic-regexp, --fixed-strings) in "git log" family of

submodule-helper: fix indexing in clone retry error reporting path
'git submodule--helper update-clone' has logic to retry failed clones
a second time. For this purpose, there is a list of submodules to clone,
and a second list that is filled with the submodules to retry. Within
these lists, the submodules are identified by an index as if both lists
were just appended.
This works nicely except when the second clone attempt fails as well. To
report an error, the identifying index must be adjusted by an offset so
that it can be used as an index into the second list. However, the

git-submodule: forward exit code of git-submodule--helper more faithfully
git-submodule--helper is invoked as the upstream of a pipe in several
places. Usually, the failure of a program in this position is not
detected by the shell. For this reason, the code inserts a token in the
output stream when git-submodule--helper fails that is detected
downstream, where the shell script is quit with exit code 1.
There happens to be a bug in git-submodule--helper that leads to a
segmentation fault. The test suite triggers the crash in several places,
all of which are protected by 'test_must_fail'. But due to the inspecific
exit code 1, the crash remains undiagnosed.
Extend the failure protocol such that git-submodule--helper's exit code
is passed downstream (only in the case of failure). This enables the
downstream to use it as its own exit code, and 'test_must_fail' to
identify the segmentation fault as an unexpected failure.
The bug itself is fixed in the next commit.

diff: do not reuse worktree files that need "clean" conversion
When accessing a blob for a diff, we may try to reuse file
contents in the working tree, under the theory that it is
faster to mmap those file contents than it would be to
extract the content from the object database.
When we have to filter those contents, though, that
assumption does not hold. Even for our internal conversions
like CRLF, we have to allocate and fill a new buffer anyway.
But much worse, for external clean filters we have to exec
an arbitrary script, and we have no idea how expensive it
may be to run.
So let's skip this optimization when conversion into git's
"clean" form is required. This applies whenever the
"want_file" flag is false. When it's true, the caller
actually wants the smudged worktree contents, which the
reused file by definition already has (in fact, this is a
key optimization going the other direction, since reusing
the worktree file there lets us skip smudge filters).

t5541: fix url scrubbing test when GPG is not set
When the GPG prereq is not set, we do not run test 34. That
test changes the directory of the test script as a side
effect (something we usually frown on, but which matches the
style of the rest of this script). When test 35 (the
url-scrubbing test) runs, it expects to be in the directory
from test 34. If it's not, the test fails; we are in a
different sub-repo, our test-commit is built on a different
history, and the push becomes a non-fast-forward.
We can fix this by unconditionally moving to the directory
we expect (again, against our usual style but matching how
the rest of the script operates).
As an additional protection, let's also switch from "make a
new commit and push to master" to just "push to a new
branch". We don't care about the branch name; we just want
_some_ ref update to trigger the status output. Pushing to a
new branch is less likely to run into problems with

receive-pack: send keepalives during quiet periods
After a client has sent us the complete pack, we may spend
some time processing the data and running hooks. If the
client asked us to be quiet, receive-pack won't send any
progress data during the index-pack or connectivity-check
steps. And hooks may or may not produce their own progress
output. In these cases, the network connection is totally
silent from both ends.
Git itself doesn't care about this (it will wait forever),
but other parts of the system (e.g., firewalls,
load-balancers, etc) might hang up the connection. So we'd
like to send some sort of keepalive to let the network and
the client side know that we're still alive and processing.
We can use the same trick we did in
05e9515 (upload-pack:
send keepalive packets during pack computation, 2013-09-08).
Namely, we will send an empty sideband data packet every `N`
seconds that we do not relay any stderr data over the
sideband channel. As with
05e9515, this means that we won't
bother sending keepalives when there's actual progress data,
but will kick in when it has been disabled (or if there is a
lull in the progress data).
The concept is simple, but the details are subtle enough
that they need discussing here.
Before the client sends us the pack, we don't want to do any
keepalives. We'll have sent our ref advertisement, and we're
waiting for them to send us the pack (and tell us that they
support sidebands at all).
While we're receiving the pack from the client (or waiting
for it to start), there's no need for keepalives; it's up to
them to keep the connection active by sending data.
Moreover, it would be wrong for us to do so. When we are the
server in the smart-http protocol, we must treat our
connection as half-duplex. So any keepalives we send while
receiving the pack would potentially be buffered by the
webserver. Not only does this make them useless (since they
would not be delivered in a timely manner), but it could
actually cause a deadlock if we fill up the buffer with
keepalives. (It wouldn't be wrong to send keepalives in this
phase for a full-duplex connection like ssh; it's simply
pointless, as it is the client's responsibility to speak).
As soon as we've gotten all of the pack data, then the
client is waiting for us to speak, and we should start
keepalives immediately. From here until the end of the
connection, we send one any time we are not otherwise
sending data.
But there's a catch. Receive-pack doesn't know the moment
we've gotten all the data. It passes the descriptor to
index-pack, who reads all of the data, and then starts
resolving the deltas. We have to communicate that back.
To make this work, we instruct the sideband muxer to enable
keepalives in three phases:
1. In the beginning, not at all.
2. While reading from index-pack, wait for a signal
indicating end-of-input, and then start them.
3. Afterwards, always.
The signal from index-pack in phase 2 has to come over the
stderr channel which the muxer is reading. We can't use an
extra pipe because the portable run-command interface only
gives us stderr and stdout.
Stdout is already used to pass the .keep filename back to
receive-pack. We could also send a signal there, but then we
would find out about it in the main thread. And the
keepalive needs to be done by the async muxer thread (since
it's the one writing sideband data back to the client). And
we can't reliably signal the async thread from the main
thread, because the async code sometimes uses threads and
sometimes uses forked processes.
Therefore the signal must come over the stderr channel,
where it may be interspersed with other random
human-readable messages from index-pack. This patch makes
the signal a single NUL byte. This is easy to parse, should
not appear in any normal stderr output, and we don't have to
worry about any timing issues (like seeing half the signal
bytes in one read(), and half in a subsequent one).
This is a bit ugly, but it's simple to code and should work
reliably.
Another option would be to stop using an async thread for
muxing entirely, and just poll() both stderr and stdout of
index-pack from the main thread. This would work for
index-pack (because we aren't doing anything useful in the
main thread while it runs anyway). But it would make the
connectivity check and the hook muxers much more
complicated, as they need to simultaneously feed the
sub-programs while reading their stderr.
The index-pack phase is the only one that needs this
signaling, so it could simply behave differently than the
other two. That would mean having two separate
implementations of copy_to_sideband (and the keepalive
code), though. And it still doesn't get rid of the
signaling; it just means we can write a nicer message like
"END_OF_INPUT" or something on stdout, since we don't have
to worry about separating it from the stderr cruft.
One final note: this signaling trick is only done with
index-pack, not with unpack-objects. There's no point in
doing it for the latter, because by definition it only kicks
in for a small number of objects, where keepalives are not
as useful (and this conveniently lets us avoid duplicating
the implementation).

receive-pack: turn on connectivity progress
When we receive a large push, the server side of the

receive-pack: relay connectivity errors to sideband
If the connectivity check encounters a problem when
receiving a push, the error output goes to receive-pack's
stderr, whose destination depends on the protocol used
(ssh tends to send it to the user, though without a "remote"
prefix; http will generally eat it in the server's error
log).
The information should consistently go back to the user, as
there is a reasonable chance their client is buggy and
generating a bad pack.
We can do so by muxing it over the sideband as we do with
other sub-process stderr.

receive-pack: turn on index-pack resolving progress
When we receive a large push, the server side may have to
spend a lot of CPU processing the incoming packfile.
During the "receiving" phase, we are typically network
bound, and the client is writing its own progress to the
user. But during the delta resolution phase, we may spend
minutes (e.g., for a full push of linux.git) without
making any indication to the user that the connection has
not hung.
Let's ask index-pack to produce progress output for this
phase (unless the client asked us to be quiet, of course).

index-pack: add flag for showing delta-resolution progress
The index-pack command has two progress meters: one for
"receiving objects", and one for "resolving deltas". You get
neither by default, or both with "-v".
But for a push through receive-pack, we would want only the
"resolving deltas" phase, _not_ the "receiving objects"
progress. There are two reasons for this.
One is simply that existing clients are already printing
"writing objects" progress at the same time. Arguably
"receiving" from the far end is more useful, because it
tells you what has actually gotten there, as opposed to what
might be stuck in a buffer somewhere between the client and
server. But that would require a protocol extension to tell
clients not to print their progress. Possible, but
complexity for little gain.
The second reason is much more important. In a full-duplex
connection like git-over-ssh, we can print progress while
the pack is incoming, and it will immediately get to the
client. But for a half-duplex connection like git-over-http,
we should not say anything until we have received the full
request. Anything we write is subject to being stuck in a
buffer by the webserver. Worse, we can end up in a deadlock
if that buffer fills up.
So our best bet is to avoid writing anything that isn't a
small fixed size until we've received the full pack.

clone: use a real progress meter for connectivity check
Because the initial connectivity check for a cloned

0781aa4 (clone: let the user know

"fake" progress meter; we simply say "Checking connectivity"

Since check_connected() now knows how to do a real progress
