prepare_auto_maintenance(), it also implicitly depends the_repository.

It is important to call the hook_exists() API provided by hook.[ch]
because it covers both config-defined hooks and the "traditional"
hooks from the hookdir. find_hook() only covers the hookdir hooks.
The regression happened because the no-op async threads add some
additional overhead which can be measured with the receive-refs test
of the benchmarks suite [1].

Some hooks use opaque structs to keep internal state between callbacks.
Because hooks ran sequentially (jobs == 1) with one command per hook,
these internal states could be allocated on the stack for each hook run.
Next commits add the ability to run multiple commands for each hook, so
the states cannot be shared or stored on the stack anymore, especially
since down the line we will also enable parallel execution (jobs > 1).
Add alloc/free helpers for each hook, doing a "deep" alloc/init & free
of their internal opaque struct.
The alloc callback takes a context pointer, to initialize the struct at
at the time of resource acquisition.
These callbacks must always be provided together: no alloc without free
and no free without alloc, otherwise a BUG() is triggered.

ISO C23 redefines strchr and friends that tradiotionally took
a const pointer and returned a non-const pointer derived from it to
preserve constness (i.e., if you ask for a substring in a const
string, you get a const pointer to the substring). Update code
paths that used non-const pointer to receive their results that did
not have to be non-const to adjust.
* cf/c23-const-preserving-strchr-updates-0:
gpg-interface: remove an unnecessary NULL initialization
global: constify some pointers that are not written to
A handful of code paths that started using batched ref update API
(after Git 2.51 or so) lost detailed error output, which have been
corrected.

refs: skip to next ref when current ref is rejected
The recent glibc 2.43 release had the following change listed in its
NEWS file:
For ISO C23, the functions bsearch, memchr, strchr, strpbrk, strrchr,
strstr, wcschr, wcspbrk, wcsrchr, wcsstr and wmemchr that return
pointers into their input arrays now have definitions as macros that
return a pointer to a const-qualified type when the input argument is
a pointer to a const-qualified type.
When compiling with GCC 15, which defaults to -std=gnu23, this causes
many warnings like this:
merge-ort.c: In function ‘apply_directory_rename_modifications’:
merge-ort.c:2734:36: warning: initialization discards ‘const’ qualifier from pointer target type [-Wdiscarded-qualifiers]

The hook API avoids creating a custom struct child_process and other
internal hook plumbing (e.g. calling find_hook()) and prepares for
the specification of hooks via configs or running parallel hooks.
Execution is still sequential through the run_hooks_opt .jobs == 1,
which is the unchanged default for all hooks.
When use_sideband==1, the async thread redirects the hook outputs to
sideband 2, otherwise it is not used and the hooks write directly to
the fds inherited from the main parent process.
When .jobs == 1, run-command's poll loop is avoided entirely via the
ungroup=1 option like before (this was Jeff's suggestion), achieving
the same real-time output performance.
When running in parallel, run-command with ungroup=0 will capture
and de-interleave the output of each hook, then write to the parent
stderr which is redirected via dup2 to the sideband thread, so that
each parallel hook output is presented clearly to the client.

In 9d2962a7c4 (receive-pack: use batched reference updates, 2025-05-19),
git-receive-pack(1) switched to using batched reference updates. This also
introduced a regression wherein instead of providing detailed error
messages for failed referenced updates, the users were provided generic
error messages based on the error type.
Now that the updates also contain detailed error message, propagate
those to the client via 'rp_error'. The detailed error messages can be
very verbose, for e.g. in the files backend, when trying to write a
non-commit object to a branch, you would see:
! [remote rejected] 3eaec9ccf3a53f168362a6b3fdeb73426fb9813d ->
branch (cannot update ref 'refs/heads/branch': trying to write
non-commit object 3eaec9ccf3a53f168362a6b3fdeb73426fb9813d to branch
'refs/heads/branch')
Here the refname is repeated multiple times due to how error messages
are propagated and filled over the code stack. This potentially can be
cleaned up in a future commit.

I noticed a performance degradation when processing large amounts
of hook input with just 1 line per callback, due to run-command's

similar pipe throughput as before and to avoid hook child waiting
on stdin.

on. But with the introduction of ":(optional)path" earlier, that is

The `each_ref_fn` callback function type is used across our code base
for several different functions that iterate through reference. There's
a bunch of callbacks implementing this type, which makes any changes to
the callback signature extremely noisy. An example of the required churn
is e8207717f1 (refs: add referent to each_ref_fn, 2024-08-09): adding a
single argument required us to change 48 files.
It was already proposed back then [1] that we might want to introduce a
wrapper structure to alleviate the pain going forward. While this of
course requires the same kind of global refactoring as just introducing
a new parameter, it at least allows us to more change the callback type
afterwards by just extending the wrapper structure.
One counterargument to this refactoring is that it makes the structure
more opaque. While it is obvious which callsites need to be fixed up
when we change the function type, it's not obvious anymore once we use
a structure. That being said, we only have a handful of sites that
actually need to populate this wrapper structure: our ref backends,
"refs/iterator.c" as well as very few sites that invoke the iterator
callback functions directly.
Introduce this wrapper structure so that we can adapt the iterator
interfaces more readily.

In 036876a106 (config: hide functions using `the_repository` by

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.

In 9d2962a7c4 (receive-pack: use batched reference updates, 2025-05-19)
we updated the 'git-receive-pack(1)' command to use batched reference
updates. One edge case which was missed during this implementation was
when a user pushes multiple branches such as:
delete refs/heads/branch/conflict
create refs/heads/branch
Before using batched updates, the references would be applied
sequentially and hence no conflicts would arise. With batched updates,
while the first update applies, the second fails due to D/F conflict. A
similar issue was present in 'git-fetch(1)' and was fixed by separating
out reference pruning into a separate transaction in the commit 'fetch:
use batched reference updates'. Apply a similar mechanism for
'git-receive-pack(1)' and separate out reference deletions into its own
batch.
This means 'git-receive-pack(1)' will now use up to two transactions,
whereas before using batched updates it would use _at least_ two
transactions. So using batched updates is still the better option.
Add a test to validate this behavior.

During git-receive-pack(1), connectivity of the object graph is
validated to ensure that the received packfile does not leave the
repository in a broken state. This is done via git-rev-list(1) and
walking the objects, which can be expensive for large repositories.
Generally, this check is critical to avoid an incomplete received
packfile from corrupting a repository. Server operators may have
additional knowledge though around exactly how Git is being used on the
server-side which can be used to facilitate more efficient connectivity
computation of incoming objects.
For example, if it can be ensured that all objects in a repository are
connected and do not depend on any missing objects, the connectivity of
newly written objects can be checked by walking the object graph
containing only the new objects from the updated tips and identifying
the missing objects which represent the boundary between the new objects
and the repository. These boundary objects can be checked in the
canonical repository to ensure the new objects connect as expected and
thus avoid walking the rest of the object graph.
Git itself cannot make the guarantees required for such an optimization
as it is possible for a repository to contain an unreachable object that
references a missing object without the repository being considered
corrupt.
Introduce the --skip-connectivity-check option for git-receive-pack(1)
which bypasses this connectivity check to give more control to the
server-side. Note that without proper server-side validation of newly
received objects handled outside of Git, usage of this option risks
corrupting a repository.

The reference updates performed as a part of 'git-receive-pack(1)', take
place one at a time. For each reference update, a new transaction is
created and committed. This is necessary to ensure we can allow
individual updates to fail without failing the entire command. The
command also supports an 'atomic' mode, which uses a single transaction
to update all of the references. But this mode has an all-or-nothing
approach, where if a single update fails, all updates would fail.
In 23fc8e4f61 (refs: implement batch reference update support,
2025-04-08), we introduced a new mechanism to batch reference updates.
Under the hood, this uses a single transaction to perform a batch of
reference updates, while allowing only individual updates to fail.
Utilize this newly introduced batch update mechanism in
'git-receive-pack(1)'. This provides a significant bump in performance,
especially when dealing with repositories with large number of
references.
With the reftable backend there is a 18x performance improvement, when
performing receive-pack with 10000 refs:
Benchmark 1: receive: many refs (refformat = reftable, refcount = 10000, revision = master)
Time (mean ± σ): 4.276 s ± 0.078 s [User: 0.796 s, System: 3.318 s]

Range (min … max): 228.5 ms … 254.2 ms 11 runs

18.16 ± 0.63 times faster than receive: many refs (refformat = reftable, refcount = 10000, revision = master)
In similar conditions, the files backend sees a 1.21x performance
improvement:
Benchmark 1: receive: many refs (refformat = files, refcount = 10000, revision = master)
Time (mean ± σ): 1.121 s ± 0.021 s [User: 0.128 s, System: 0.975 s]
Range (min … max): 1.097 s … 1.156 s 10 runs
Benchmark 2: receive: many refs (refformat = files, refcount = 10000, revision = HEAD)
Time (mean ± σ): 927.9 ms ± 22.6 ms [User: 99.0 ms, System: 815.2 ms]
Range (min … max): 903.1 ms … 978.0 ms 10 runs

receive: many refs (refformat = files, refcount = 10000, revision = HEAD) ran
1.21 ± 0.04 times faster than receive: many refs (refformat = files, refcount = 10000, revision = master)
As using batched updates requires the error handling to be moved to the
end of the flow, create and use a 'struct strset' to track the failed
refs and attribute the correct errors to them.
This change also uncovers an issue when a client provides multiple
updates to the same reference. For example:
$ git send-pack remote.git A:foo B:foo
Enumerating objects: 3, done.
Counting objects: 100% (3/3), done.
Delta compression using up to 20 threads
Compressing objects: 100% (2/2), done.
Writing objects: 100% (3/3), 226 bytes | 226.00 KiB/s, done.
Total 3 (delta 1), reused 0 (delta 0), pack-reused 0 (from 0)
remote: error: cannot lock ref 'refs/heads/foo': reference already exists
To remote.git
! [remote rejected] A -> foo (failed to update ref)
! [remote failure] B -> foo (remote failed to report status)
As you can see, the remote runs into an error because it cannot lock the
target reference for the second update. Furthermore, the remote complains
that the first update has been rejected whereas the second update didn't
receive any status update because we failed to lock it. Reading this status
message alone a user would probably expect that `foo` has not been updated
at all. But that's not the case: while we claim that the ref wasn't updated,
it surprisingly points to `A` now.
One could argue that this is merely an error in how we report the result of
this push. But ultimately, the user's request itself is already broken and
doesn't make any sense in the first place and cannot ever lead to a sensible
outcome that honors the full request.
The conversion to batched transactions fixes the issue because we now try to
queue both updates in the same transaction. As such, the transaction itself
will notice this conflict and refuse the update altogether before we commit
any of the values.
Note that this requires changes to a couple of tests in t5408 that happened
to exercise this behaviour. Given that the generated output is misleading
and given that the user request cannot ever be fully honored this really
feels more like a bug than properly designed behaviour. As such, changing
the behaviour feels like the right thing to do.
Since now reference updates are batched, the 'reference-transaction'
hook will be invoked with all updates together. Currently git will 'die'
when the hook returns with a non-zero exit status in the 'prepared'
stage. For 'git-receive-pack(1)', this allowed users to reject an
individual reference update, git would have applied previous updates but
immediately abort further execution. This is definitely an incorrect
usage of this hook, since the right place to do this would be the
'update' hook. This patch retains the latter behavior, but
'reference-transaction' hook now changes to a all-or-nothing behavior
when a non-zero exit status is returned in the 'prepared' stage, since
batch updates use a transaction under the hood. This explains the change
in 't1416'.

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.

The "object-store-ll.h" header has been introduced to keep transitive
header dependendcies and compile times at bay. 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.

While we have the "object-store.h" header, most of the functionality for
object stores is actually hosted in "object-file.c". This makes it hard
to find relevant functions and causes us to mix up concerns.
Split out functions relating to the object store subsystem into a new
"object-store.c" file.

The `null_oid()` function returns the object ID that only consists of
zeroes. Naturally, this ID also depends on the hash algorithm used, as
the number of zeroes is different between SHA1 and SHA256. Consequently,
the function returns the hash-algorithm-specific null object ID.
This is currently done by depending on `the_hash_algo`, which implicitly
makes us depend on `the_repository`. Refactor the function to instead
pass in the hash algorithm for which we want to retrieve the null object
ID. Adapt callsites accordingly by passing in `the_repository`, thus
bubbling up the dependency on that global variable by one layer.
There are a couple of trivial exceptions for subsystems that already got
rid of `the_repository`. These subsystems instead use the repository
that is available via the calling context:
- "builtin/grep.c"
- "grep.c"
- "refs/debug.c"
There are also two non-trivial exceptions:
- "diff-no-index.c": Here we know that we may not have a repository
initialized at all, so we cannot rely on `the_repository`. Instead,
we adapt `diff_no_index()` to get a `struct git_hash_algo` as
parameter. The only caller is located in "builtin/diff.c", where we
know to call `repo_set_hash_algo()` in case we're running outside of
a Git repository. Consequently, it is fine to continue passing
`the_repository->hash_algo` even in this case.
- "builtin/ls-files.c": There is an in-flight patch series that drops
`USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE` in this file, which causes a semantic
conflict because we use `null_oid()` in `show_submodule()`. The
value is passed to `repo_submodule_init()`, which may use the object
ID to resolve a tree-ish in the superproject from which we want to
read the submodule config. As such, the object ID should refer to an
object in the superproject, and consequently we need to use its hash
algorithm.
This means that we could in theory just not bother about this edge
case at all and just use `the_repository` in "diff-no-index.c". But
doing so would feel misdesigned.
Remove the `USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE` preprocessor define in
"hash.c".

The `get_worktree_git_dir()` function returns a string constant that
does not need to be free'd by the caller. This string is computed for
three different cases:
- If we don't have a worktree we return a path into the Git directory.
The returned string is owned by `the_repository`, so there is no
need for the caller to free it.
- If we have a worktree, but no worktree ID then the caller requests
the main worktree. In this case we return a path into the common
directory, which again is owned by `the_repository` and thus does
not need to be free'd.
- In the third case, where we have an actual worktree, we compute the
path relative to "$GIT_COMMON_DIR/worktrees/". This string does not
need to be released either, even though `git_common_path()` ends up
allocating memory. But this doesn't result in a memory leak either
because we write into a buffer returned by `get_pathname()`, which
returns one out of four static buffers.
We're about to drop `git_common_path()` in favor of `repo_common_path()`,
which doesn't use the same mechanism but instead returns an allocated
string owned by the caller. While we could adapt `get_worktree_git_dir()`
to also use `get_pathname()` and print the derived common path into that
buffer, the whole schema feels a lot like premature optimization in this
context. There are some callsites where we call `get_worktree_git_dir()`
in a loop that iterates through all worktrees. But none of these loops
seem to be even remotely in the hot path, so saving a single allocation
there does not feel worth it.
Refactor the function to instead consistently return an allocated path
so that we can start using `repo_common_path()` in a subsequent commit.

Adapt callers to use generic hash context helpers instead of using the
hash algorithm to update them. This makes the callsites easier to reason
about and removes the possibility that the wrong hash algorithm is used
to update the hash context's state. And as a nice side effect this also
gets rid of a bunch of users of `the_hash_algo`.

We generally avoid using `typedef` in the Git codebase. One exception
though is the `git_hash_ctx`, likely because it used to be a union
rather than a struct until the preceding commit refactored it. But now
that it is a normal `struct` there isn't really a need for a typedef
anymore.
Drop the typedef and adapt all callers accordingly.

The `index_pack_lockfile()` function uses the global `the_repository`
variable to access the repository. To avoid global variable usage, pass
the repository from the layers above.
Altough the layers above could have access to the repository internally,
simply pass in `the_repository`. This avoids any compatibility issues
and bubbles up global variable usage to upper layers which can be
eventually resolved.
