A future feature will want to load the sparse-checkout patterns into a
pattern_list, but the current mechanism to do so is a bit complicated.
This is made difficult due to needing to find the sparse-checkout file
in different ways throughout the codebase.
The logic implemented in the new get_sparse_checkout_patterns() was
duplicated in populate_from_existing_patterns() in unpack-trees.c. Use
the new method instead, keeping the logic around handling the struct
unpack_trees_options.
The callers to get_sparse_checkout_filename() in
builtin/sparse-checkout.c manipulate the sparse-checkout file directly,
so it is not appropriate to replace logic in that file with
get_sparse_checkout_patterns().

Make the method safer by allocating a cache_tree member for the given
index_state if it is not already present. This is preferrable to a
BUG() statement or returning with an error because future callers will
want to populate an empty cache-tree using this method.
Callers can also remove their conditional allocations of cache_tree.
Also drop local variables that can be found directly from the 'istate'
parameter.

The unpack_trees() method is quite complicated and its performance can
change dramatically depending on how it is used. We already have some
performance tracing regions, but they have not been updated to the
trace2 API. Do so now.
We already have trace2 regions in unpack_trees.c:clear_ce_flags(), which
uses a linear scan through the index without recursing into trees.

We eventually want to drop the argv_array name and just use strvec
consistently. There's no particular reason we have to do it all at once,
or care about interactions between converted and unconverted bits.
Because of our preprocessor compat layer, the names are interchangeable
to the compiler (so even a definition and declaration using different
names is OK).
This patch converts all of the remaining files, as the resulting diff is
reasonably sized.
The conversion was done purely mechanically with:
git ls-files '*.c' '*.h' |
xargs perl -i -pe '
s/ARGV_ARRAY/STRVEC/g;
s/argv_array/strvec/g;
'
We'll deal with any indentation/style fallouts separately.

commit b0a5a12a60 ("unpack-trees: allow check_updates() to work on a
different index", 2020-03-27) allowed check_updates() to work on a
different index, but it called get_progress() which was hardcoded to
work on o->result much like check_updates() had been. Update it to also
accept an index parameter and have check_updates() pass that parameter
along so that both are working on the same index.

The loop in warn_conflicted_path() that checks for the count of
entries with the same path uses "i+count" for the array
entry. However, the loop only verifies that the value of count is
below the array size. Fix this by adding i to the condition.
I hit this condition during a test of the in-tree sparse-checkout

Remove the error condition when updating the sparse-checkout leaves
an empty working directory.
This behavior was added in 9e1afb167 (sparse checkout: inhibit empty
worktree, 2009-08-20). The comment was added in a7bc906f2 (Add
explanation why we do not allow to sparse checkout to empty working
tree, 2011-09-22) in response to a "dubious" comment in 84563a624
(unpack-trees.c: cosmetic fix, 2010-12-22).
With the recent "cone mode" and "git sparse-checkout init [--cone]"
command, it is common to set a reasonable sparse-checkout pattern
set of
/*
!/*/
which matches only files at root. If the repository has no such files,
then their "git sparse-checkout init" command will fail.
Now that we expect this to be a common pattern, we should not have the
commands fail on an empty working directory. If it is a confusing
result, then the user can recover with "git sparse-checkout disable"
or "git sparse-checkout set". This is especially simple when using cone
mode.

Setting and clearing of the SKIP_WORKTREE bit is not only done when
users run 'sparse-checkout'; other commands such as 'checkout' also run
through unpack_trees() which has logic for handling this special bit.
As such, we need to consider how they handle special cases. A couple
comparison points should help explain the rationale for changing how
unpack_trees() handles these bits:
Ignoring sparse checkouts for a moment, if you are switching
branches and have dirty changes, it is only considered an error that
will prevent the branch switching from being successful if the dirty
file happens to be one of the paths with different contents.
SKIP_WORKTREE has always been considered advisory; for example, if
rebase or merge need or even want to materialize a path as part of
their work, they have always been allowed to do so regardless of the
SKIP_WORKTREE setting. This has been used for unmerged paths, but
it was often used for paths it wasn't needed just because it made
the code simpler. It was a best-effort consideration, and when it
materialized paths contrary to the SKIP_WORKTREE setting, it was
never required to even print a warning message.
In the past if you trying to run e.g. 'git checkout' and:
1) you had a path that was materialized and had some dirty changes
2) the path was listed in $GITDIR/info/sparse-checkout
3) this path did not different between the current and target branches
then despite the comparison points above, the inability to set
SKIP_WORKTREE was treated as a *hard* error that would abort the
checkout operation. This is completely inconsistent with how
SKIP_WORKTREE is handled elsewhere, and rather annoying for users as
leaving the paths materialized in the working copy (with a simple
warning) should present no problem at all.
Downgrade any errors from inability to toggle the SKIP_WORKTREE bit to a
warning and allow the operations to continue.

display_error_msgs() is never called to show messages of both ERROR_*
and WARNING_* types at the same time; it is instead called multiple
times, separately for each type. Since we want to display these types
differently, make two slightly different versions of this function.

the new display_warning_msgs().

Previously, the only way to update the SKIP_WORKTREE bits for various
paths was invoking `git read-tree -mu HEAD` or calling the same code
that this codepath invoked. This however had a number of problems if
the index or working directory were not clean. First, let's consider
the case:
Flipping SKIP_WORKTREE -> !SKIP_WORKTREE (materializing files)
If the working tree was clean this was fine, but if there were files or
directories or symlinks or whatever already present at the given path
then the operation would abort with an error. Let's label this case
for later discussion:
A) There is an untracked path in the way
Now let's consider the opposite case:
Flipping !SKIP_WORKTREE -> SKIP_WORKTREE (removing files)
If the index and working tree was clean this was fine, but if there were
any unclean paths we would run into problems. There are three different
cases to consider:
B) The path is unmerged
C) The path has unstaged changes
D) The path has staged changes (differs from HEAD)
If any path fell into case B or C, then the whole operation would be
aborted with an error. With sparse-checkout, the whole operation would
be aborted for case D as well, but for its predecessor of using `git
read-tree -mu HEAD` directly, any paths that fell into case D would be
removed from the working copy and the index entry for that path would be
reset to match HEAD -- which looks and feels like data loss to users
(only a few are even aware to ask whether it can be recovered, and even
then it requires walking through loose objects trying to match up the
right ones).
Refusing to remove files that have unsaved user changes is good, but
refusing to work on any other paths is very problematic for users. If
the user is in the middle of a rebase or has made modifications to files
that bring in more dependencies, then for their build to work they need
to update the sparse paths. This logic has been preventing them from
doing so. Sometimes in response, the user will stage the files and
re-try, to no avail with sparse-checkout or to the horror of losing
their changes if they are using its predecessor of `git read-tree -mu
HEAD`.
Add a new update_sparsity() function which will not error out in any of
these cases but behaves as follows for the special cases:
A) Leave the file in the working copy alone, clear the SKIP_WORKTREE
bit, and print a warning (thus leaving the path in a state where
status will report the file as modified, which seems logical).
B) Do NOT mark this path as SKIP_WORKTREE, and leave it as unmerged.
C) Do NOT mark this path as SKIP_WORKTREE and print a warning about
the dirty path.
D) Mark the path as SKIP_WORKTREE, but do not revert the version
stored in the index to match HEAD; leave the contents alone.
I tried a different behavior for A (leave the SKIP_WORKTREE bit set),
but found it very surprising and counter-intuitive (e.g. the user sees
it is present along with all the other files in that directory, tries to
stage it, but git add ignores it since the SKIP_WORKTREE bit is set). A
& C seem like optimal behavior to me. B may be as well, though I wonder
if printing a warning would be an improvement. Some might be slightly
surprised by D at first, but given that it does the right thing with
`git commit` and even `git commit -a` (`git add` ignores entries that
are marked SKIP_WORKTREE and thus doesn't delete them, and `commit -a`
is similar), it seems logical to me.

If a path is dirty, removing from the working tree risks losing data.
As such, we want to make sure any such path is not marked with
SKIP_WORKTREE. While the current callers of this code detect this case
and re-populate with a previous set of sparsity patterns, we want to
allow some paths to be marked with SKIP_WORKTREE while others are left
unmarked without it being considered an error. The reason this
shouldn't be considered an error is that SKIP_WORKTREE has always been
an advisory-only setting; merge and rebase for example were free to
materialize paths and clear the SKIP_WORKTREE bit in order to accomplish
their work even though they kept the SKIP_WORKTREE bit set for other
paths. Leaving dirty working files in the working tree is thus a
natural extension of what we have already been doing.

commit e091228e17 ("sparse-checkout: update working directory
in-process", 2019-11-21) allowed passing a pre-defined set of patterns
to unpack_trees(). However, if o->pl was NULL, it would still read the
existing patterns and use those. If those patterns were read into a
data structure that was allocated, naturally they needed to be free'd.
However, despite the same function being responsible for knowing about
both the allocation and the free'ing, the logic for tracking whether to
free the pattern_list was hoisted to an outer function with an
additional flag in unpack_trees_options. Put the logic back in the
relevant function and discard the now unnecessary flag.

verify_absent_sparse() was introduced in commit 08402b0409
("merge-recursive: distinguish "removed" and "overwritten" messages",
2010-08-11), and has always had exactly one caller which always passes
error_type == ERROR_WOULD_LOSE_UNTRACKED_OVERWRITTEN. This function
then checks whether error_type is this value, and if so, sets it instead
to ERROR_WOULD_LOSE_ORPHANED_OVERWRITTEN. It has been nearly a decade
and no other caller has been created, and no other value has ever been
passed, so just pass the expected value to begin with.

Using `git checkout --recurse-submodules` to switch between a
branch with no submodules and a branch with initialized nested
submodules currently causes a fatal error:
$ git checkout --recurse-submodules branch-with-nested-submodules
fatal: exec '--super-prefix=submodule/nested/': cd to 'nested'
failed: No such file or directory
error: Submodule 'nested' could not be updated.
error: Submodule 'submodule/nested' cannot checkout new HEAD.
error: Submodule 'submodule' could not be updated.
M submodule
Switched to branch 'branch-with-nested-submodules'
The checkout succeeds but the worktree and index of the first level
submodule are left empty:
$ cd submodule
$ git -c status.submoduleSummary=1 status
HEAD detached at b3ce885
Changes to be committed:
(use "git restore --staged <file>..." to unstage)
deleted: .gitmodules
deleted: first.t
deleted: nested
fatal: not a git repository: 'nested/.git'
Submodule changes to be committed:
* nested 1e96f59...0000000:
$ git ls-files -s
$ # empty
$ ls -A
.git
The reason for the fatal error during the checkout is that a child git
process tries to cd into the yet unexisting nested submodule directory.
The sequence is the following:
1. The main git process (the one running in the superproject) eventually
reaches write_entry() in entry.c, which creates the first level
submodule directory and then calls submodule_move_head() in submodule.c,
which spawns `git read-tree` in the submodule directory.
2. The first child git process (the one in the submodule of the
superproject) eventually calls check_submodule_move_head() at
unpack_trees.c:2021, which calls submodule_move_head in dry-run mode,
which spawns `git read-tree` in the nested submodule directory.
3. The second child git process tries to chdir() in the yet unexisting
nested submodule directory in start_command() at run-command.c:829 and
dies before exec'ing.
The reason why check_submodule_move_head() is reached in the first child
and not in the main process is that it is inside an
if(submodule_from_ce()) construct, and submodule_from_ce() returns a
valid struct submodule pointer, whereas it returns a null pointer in the
main git process.
The reason why submodule_from_ce() returns a null pointer in the main
git process is because the call to cache_lookup_path() in config_from()
(called from submodule_from_path() in submodule_from_ce()) returns a
null pointer since the hashmap "for_path" in the submodule_cache of
the_repository is not yet populated. It is not populated because both
repo_get_oid(repo, GITMODULES_INDEX, &oid) and repo_get_oid(repo,
GITMODULES_HEAD, &oid) in config_from_gitmodules() at
submodule-config.c:639-640 return -1, as at this stage of the operation,
neither the HEAD of the superproject nor its index contain any
.gitmodules file.
In contrast, in the first child the hashmap is populated because
repo_get_oid(repo, GITMODULES_HEAD, &oid) returns 0 as the HEAD of the
first level submodule, i.e. .git/modules/submodule/HEAD, points to a
commit where .gitmodules is present and records 'nested' as a submodule.
Fix this bug by checking that the submodule directory exists before
calling check_submodule_move_head() in merged_entry() in the `if(!old)`
branch, i.e. if going from a commit with no submodule to a commit with a
submodule present.
Also protect the other call to check_submodule_move_head() in
merged_entry() the same way as it is safer, even though the `else if
(!(old->ce_flags & CE_CONFLICTED))` branch of the code is not at play in
the present bug.
The other calls to check_submodule_move_head() in other functions in
unpack_trees.c are all already protected by calls to lstat() somewhere
in
the program flow so we don't need additional protection for them.
All commands in the unpack_trees machinery are affected, i.e. checkout,
reset and read-tree when called with the --recurse-submodules flag.
This bug was first reported in [1].

The function verify_clean_submodule() learned to verify if a submodule
working tree is clean in a7bc845a9a (unpack-trees: check if we can
perform the operation for submodules, 2017-03-14), but the commented
description above it was not updated to reflect that, such that this
description has been outdated since then.
Since Git has now learned to optionnally recursively check out
submodules during a superproject checkout, remove this outdated
description.

Some rough edges in the sparse-checkout feature, especially around
the cone mode, have been cleaned up.
* ds/sparse-checkout-harden:
sparse-checkout: fix cone mode behavior mismatch
sparse-checkout: improve docs around 'set' in cone mode
sparse-checkout: escape all glob characters on write
sparse-checkout: use C-style quotes in 'list' subcommand
sparse-checkout: unquote C-style strings over --stdin
sparse-checkout: write escaped patterns in cone mode
sparse-checkout: properly match escaped characters
sparse-checkout: warn on globs in cone patterns
sparse-checkout: detect short patterns
sparse-checkout: cone mode does not recognize "**"
sparse-checkout: fix documentation typo for core.sparseCheckoutCone
clone: fix --sparse option with URLs
sparse-checkout: create leading directories
t1091: improve here-docs
t1091: use check_files to reduce boilerplate

Traditionally, we avoided threaded grep while searching in objects
(as opposed to files in the working tree) as accesses to the object
layer is not thread-safe. This limitation is getting lifted.
* mt/threaded-grep-in-object-store:
grep: use no. of cores as the default no. of threads
grep: move driver pre-load out of critical section
grep: re-enable threads in non-worktree case
grep: protect packed_git [re-]initialization
grep: allow submodule functions to run in parallel
submodule-config: add skip_if_read option to repo_read_gitmodules()
grep: replace grep_read_mutex by internal obj read lock
object-store: allow threaded access to object reading
replace-object: make replace operations thread-safe
grep: fix racy calls in grep_objects()
grep: fix race conditions at grep_submodule()
grep: fix race conditions on userdiff calls
