The 'extensions.refStorage' config is used to specify the reference
backend for a given repository. Both the 'files' and 'reftable' backends
utilize the $GIT_DIR as the reference folder by default in
`get_main_ref_store()`.
Since the reference backends are pluggable, this means that they could
work with out-of-tree reference directories too. Extend the 'refStorage'
config to also support taking an URI input, where users can specify the
reference backend and the location.
Add the required changes to obtain and propagate this value to the
individual backends. Add the necessary documentation and tests.
Traditionally, for linked worktrees, references were stored in the
'$GIT_DIR/worktrees/<wt_id>' path. But when using an alternate reference
storage path, it doesn't make sense to store the main worktree
references in the new path, and the linked worktree references in the
$GIT_DIR. So, let's store linked worktree references in
'$ALTERNATE_REFERENCE_DIR/worktrees/<wt_id>'. To do this, create the
necessary files and folders while also adding stubs in the $GIT_DIR path
to ensure that it is still considered a Git directory.
Ideally, we would want to pass in a `struct worktree *` to individual
backends, instead of passing the `gitdir`. This allows them to handle
worktree specific logic. Currently, that is not possible since the
worktree code is:
- Tied to using the global `the_repository` variable.
- Is not setup before the reference database during initialization of
the repository.
Add a TODO in 'refs.c' to ensure we can eventually make that change.

For Git to recognize a directory as a Git directory, it requires the
directory to contain:
1. 'HEAD' file
2. 'objects/' directory
3. 'refs/' directory
Here, #1 and #3 are part of the reference storage mechanism,
specifically the files backend. Since then, newer backends such as the
reftable backend have moved to using their own path ('reftable/') for
storing references. But to ensure Git still recognizes the directory as
a Git directory, we create stubs.
There are two locations where we create stubs:
- In 'refs/reftable-backend.c' when creating the reftable backend.
- In 'clone.c' before spawning transport helpers.
In a following commit, we'll add another instance. So instead of
repeating the code, let's extract out this code to
`refs_create_refdir_stubs()` and use it.

The `create_reference_database()` function is used to create the
reference database during initialization of a repository. The function
calls `repo_set_ref_storage_format()` to set the repositories reference
format. This is an unexpected side-effect of the function. More so
because the function is only called in two locations:
1. During git-init(1) where the value is propagated from the `struct
repository_format repo_fmt` value.
2. During git-clone(1) where the value is propagated from the
`the_repository` value.
The former is valid, however the flow already calls
`repo_set_ref_storage_format()`, so this effort is simply duplicated.
The latter sets the existing value in `the_repository` back to itself.
While this is okay for now, introduction of more fields in
`repo_set_ref_storage_format()` would cause issues, especially
dynamically allocated strings, where we would free/allocate the same
string back into `the_repostiory`.
To avoid all this confusion, clean up the function to no longer take in
and set the repo's reference storage format.

Enable callers to generate reachability bitmaps when performing MIDX
layer compaction by combining all existing bitmaps from the compacted
layers.
Note that because of the object/pack ordering described by the previous
commit, the pseudo-pack order for the compacted MIDX is the same as
concatenating the individual pseudo-pack orderings for each layer in the
compaction range.
As a result, the only non-test or documentation change necessary is to
treat all objects as non-preferred during compaction so as not to
disturb the object ordering.
In the future, we may want to adjust which commit(s) receive
reachability bitmaps when compacting multiple .bitmap files into one, or
even generate new bitmaps (e.g., if the references have moved
significantly since the .bitmap was generated). This commit only
implements combining all existing bitmaps in range together in order to
demonstrate and lay the groundwork for more exotic strategies.

When managing a MIDX chain with many layers, it is convenient to combine
a sequence of adjacent layers into a single layer to prevent the chain
from growing too long.
While it is conceptually possible to "compact" a sequence of MIDX layers
together by running "git multi-pack-index write --stdin-packs", there
are a few drawbacks that make this less than desirable:
- Preserving the MIDX chain is impossible, since there is no way to
write a MIDX layer that contains objects or packs found in an earlier
MIDX layer already part of the chain. So callers would have to write
an entirely new (non-incremental) MIDX containing only the compacted
layers, discarding all other objects/packs from the MIDX.
- There is (currently) no way to write a MIDX layer outside of the MIDX
chain to work around the above, such that the MIDX chain could be
reassembled substituting the compacted layers with the MIDX that was
written.
- The `--stdin-packs` command-line option does not allow us to specify
the order of packs as they appear in the MIDX. Therefore, even if
there were workarounds for the previous two challenges, any bitmaps
belonging to layers which come after the compacted layer(s) would no
longer be valid.
This commit introduces a way to compact a sequence of adjacent MIDX
layers into a single layer while preserving the MIDX chain, as well as
any bitmap(s) in layers which are newer than the compacted ones.
Implementing MIDX compaction does not require a significant number of
changes to how MIDX layers are written. The main changes are as follows:
- Instead of calling `fill_packs_from_midx()`, we call a new function
`fill_packs_from_midx_range()`, which walks backwards along the
portion of the MIDX chain which we are compacting, and adds packs one
layer a time.
In order to preserve the pseudo-pack order, the concatenated pack
order is preserved, with the exception of preferred packs which are
always added first.
- After adding entries from the set of packs in the compaction range,
`compute_sorted_entries()` must adjust the `pack_int_id`'s for all
objects added in each fanout layer to match their original
`pack_int_id`'s (as opposed to the index at which each pack appears
in `ctx.info`).
Note that we cannot reuse `midx_fanout_add_midx_fanout()` directly
here, as it unconditionally recurs through the `->base_midx`. Factor
out a `_1()` variant that operates on a single layer, reimplement
the existing function in terms of it, and use the new variant from
`midx_fanout_add_compact()`.
Since we are sorting the list of objects ourselves, the order we add
them in does not matter.
- When writing out the new 'multi-pack-index-chain' file, discard any
layers in the compaction range, replacing them with the newly written
layer, instead of keeping them and placing the new layer at the end
of the chain.
This ends up being sufficient to implement MIDX compaction in such a way
that preserves bitmaps corresponding to more recent layers in the MIDX
chain.
The tests for MIDX compaction are so far fairly spartan, since the main
interesting behavior here is ensuring that the right packs/objects are
selected from each layer, and that the pack order is preserved despite
whether or not they are sorted in lexicographic order in the original
MIDX chain.

The git-gc(1) command has been introduced in the early days of Git in
30f610b7b0 (Create 'git gc' to perform common maintenance operations.,
2006-12-27) as the main repository maintenance utility. And while the
tool has of course evolved since then to cover new parts, the basic
strategy it uses has never really changed much.
It is safe to say that since 2006 the Git ecosystem has changed quite a
bit. Repositories tend to be much larger nowadays than they have been
almost 20 years ago, and large parts of the industry went crazy for
monorepos (for various wildly different definitions of "monorepo"). So
the maintenance strategy we used back then may not be the best fit
nowadays anymore.
Arguably, most of the maintenance tasks that git-gc(1) does are still
perfectly fine today: repacking references, expiring various data
structures and things like tend to not cause huge problems. But the big
exception is the way we repack objects.
git-gc(1) by default uses a split strategy: it performs incremental
repacks by default, and then whenever we have too many packs we perform
a large all-into-one repack. This all-into-one repack is what is causing
problems nowadays, as it is an operation that is quite expensive. While
it is wasteful in small- and medium-sized repositories, in large repos
it may even be prohibitively expensive.
We have eventually introduced git-maintenance(1) that was slated as a
replacement for git-gc(1). In contrast to git-gc(1), it is much more
flexible as it is structured around configurable tasks and strategies.
So while its default "gc" strategy still uses git-gc(1) under the hood,
it allows us to iterate.
A second strategy it knows about is the "incremental" strategy, which we
configure when registering a repository for scheduled maintenance. This
strategy isn't really a full replacement for git-gc(1) though, as it
doesn't know to expire unused data structures. In Git 2.52 we have thus
introduced a new "geometric" strategy that is a proper replacement for
the old git-gc(1).
In contrast to the incremental/all-into-one split used by git-gc(1), the
new "geometric" strategy maintains a geometric progression of packfiles,
which significantly reduces the number of all-into-one repacks that we
have to perform in large repositories. It is thus a much better fit for
large repositories than git-gc(1).
Note that the "geometric" strategy isn't perfect though: while we
perform way less all-into-one repacks compared to git-gc(1), we still
have to perform them eventually. But for the largest repositories out
there this may not be an option either, as client machines might not be
powerful enough to perform such a repack in the first place. These cases
would thus still be covered by the "incremental" strategy.
Switch the default strategy away from "gc" to "geometric", but retain
the "incremental" strategy configured when registering background
maintenance with `git maintenance register`.

The config `format.noprefix` was added in 8d5213de (format-patch: add
format.noprefix option, 2023-03-09) to support no-prefix on paths.
That was immediately after making git-format-patch(1) not respect
`diff.noprefix`.[1]
The intent was to mirror `diff.noprefix`. But this config was
unintentionally[2] implemented by enabling no-prefix if any kind of
value is set.
† 1: c169af8f (format-patch: do not respect diff.noprefix, 2023-03-09)
† 2: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260211073553.GA1867915@coredump.intra.peff.net/
Let’s indeed mirror `diff.noprefix` by treating it as a boolean.
This is a breaking change. And as far as breaking changes go it is
pretty benign:
• The documentation claims that this config is equivalent to
`diff.noprefix`; this is just a bug fix if the documentation is
what defines the application interface
• Only users with non-boolean values will run into problems when we
try to parse it as a boolean. But what would (1) make them suspect
they could do that in the first place, and (2) have motivated them to
do it?
• Users who have set this to `false` and expect that to mean *enable
format.noprefix* (current behavior) will now have the opposite
experience. Which is not a reasonable setup.
Let’s only offer a breaking change fig leaf by advising about the
previous behavior before dying.

Previously, the --type=<X> argument to 'git config list' was ignored and
did nothing. Now, we add the use of format_config() to the
show_all_config() function so each key-value pair is attempted to be
parsed. This is our first use of the 'gently' parameter with a nonzero
value.
When listing multiple values, our initial settings for the output format
is different. Add a new init helper to specify the fact that keys should
be shown and also add the default delimiters as they were unset in some
cases.
Our intention is that if there is an error in parsing, then the row is
not output. This is necessary to avoid the caller needing to build their
own validator to understand the difference between valid, canonicalized
types and other raw string values. The raw values will always be
available to the user if they do not specify the --type=<X> option.
The current behavior is more complicated, including error messages on
bad parsing or potentially complete failure of the command. We add
tests at this point that demonstrate the current behavior so we can
witness the fix in future changes that parse these values quietly and
gently.
This is a change in behavior! We are starting to respect an option that
was previously ignored, leading to potential user confusion. This is
probably still a good option, since the --type argument did not change
behavior at all previously, so users can get the behavior they expect by
removing the --type argument or adding the --no-type argument.
t1300-config.sh is updated with the current behavior of this formatting
logic to justify the upcoming refactoring of format_config() that will
incrementally fix some of these cases to be more user-friendly.

hook events and next commit will introduce the ability to define hooks
from configs, in addition to the "traditional" hooks from the hookdir.
Introduce a new command "git hook list" to make inspecting hooks easier
both for users and for the tests we will add.
Further commits will expand on this, e.g. by adding a -z output mode.

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.
