The setup logic to discover and configure repositories has been
refactored, and the initialization of the object database has been
centralized.
* ps/setup-centralize-odb-creation:
setup: construct object database in `apply_repository_format()`
repository: stop reading loose object map twice on repo init
setup: stop initializing object database without repository
setup: stop creating the object database in `setup_git_env()`
repository: stop initializing the object database in `repo_set_gitdir()`
setup: deduplicate logic to apply repository format

t0001: plug test gaps for git-init(1) with GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY
With the preceding changes we now always construct the repository's
object database before applying the repository format. Remove this
duplication by constructing it in `apply_repository_format()` instead.
Note that we create the object database _after_ having set up the
repository's hash algorithm, but _before_ setting the compat hash
algorithm. This is intentional:
- Constructing the object database may require knowledge of its
intended object format.
- Setting up the compatibility hash requires the object database to be
initialized already, because we immediately read the loose object
map.
The first point is sensible, the second maybe a little less so. Ideally,
it should be the responsibility of the object database itself to
initialize any data structures required for the compatibility hash. But
this would require further changes, so this is kept as-is for now.
Further note that this requires us to move handling of the environment
variables GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY and GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_DIRECTORIES into
the repository format, as well. This allows the caller more flexibility
around whether or not those environment variables are being honored, as
we want to respect them in "setup.c", but not in "repository.c".

The function `setup_git_directory_gently()` is responsible for
discovering and setting up a Git repository based on various environment
variables and the current working directory. The result is thus a fully
usable Git repository.
One oddity of this function is that we may set up the object database
even in the case where we don't have a repository, namely in the case
where the `GIT_DIR_EXPLICIT` environment variable is set but points to a
non-existent repository. If so, we call `setup_git_env_internal()` with
the value of the environment variable so that the repository's Git
directory is configured, even if it points to a non-existent directory.
Historically though, this function didn't only configure the repository,
but also initialized the object database. We retained this behaviour
from a preceding commit, even though it really doesn't make much sense
in the first place -- there is no repository, so we don't have an object
database either. There seemingly isn't much of a reason to construct the
object database, as we typically won't try to read objects when we don't
have an object database.
There's one exception though: git-index-pack(1) may run outside of a
repository, which can be used to perform consistency checks for a
packfile. The code path is _almost_ working: we already know to call
`parse_object_buffer()`, which can read objects without an object
database being available. And that works for all object types except for
commits, because `parse_commit_buffer()` calls `parse_commit_graph()`,
and that function doesn't handle the case where we don't have an object
database.
Fix this instance to check for the object database instead of checking
for the Git directory having been initialized. With this fixed, we can
now stop constructing an object database completely.

In the preceding commit we have stopped creating the object database in
`repo_set_gitdir()`. But the logic is still somewhat confusing as we
still end up creating it conditionally in `setup_git_dir()`, which is
called multiple times.
Drop the conditional logic and instead create the object database in all
places where we have discovered and configured a repository.
This leads to even more duplication than we already had in the preceding
commit, but an alert reader may notice that we now (almost) always call
`odb_new()` directly before having called `apply_repository_format()`.
The only exception to this is `setup_git_directory_gently()`, where we
also call the function when _not_ applying the repository format. This
will be fixed in the next commit, and once that's done we can then unify
creation of the object database into `apply_repository_format()`.

The function `repo_set_gitdir()` obviously sets the Git directory for a
given repository. Less obviously though, the function also configures a
couple of auxiliary settings.
One such thing is that we create the object database in this function.
This logic only happens conditionally though, as `set_git_dir()` may be
called multiple times during repository setup, and we don't want to
create the object database multiple times. This is somewhat tangled and
hard to follow.
Remove the logic from `repo_set_gitdir()` and instead initialize the
object database outside of it. This leads to some duplication right now,
but that duplication will be removed in a subsequent step where we will
start initializing the object database as part of applying the repo's
format.

After having discovered the repository format we then apply it to the
repository so that it knows to use the proper repository extensions. The
logic to apply the format is duplicated across three callsites, which
makes it rather painfull to add new extensions.
Introduce a new function `apply_repository_format()` that takes a repo
and applies a given format to it and adapt all callsites to use it.
This function is also the new caller of `verify_repository_format()` so
that we can ensure that we never apply an invalid repository format.
The verification we have in `read_and_verify_repository_format()` is
thus redundant now and dropped.
Rename `read_and_verify_repository_format()` accordingly. While at it,
also rename `check_repository_format()` to clarify that it doesn't only
_check_ the format, but that it also applies it.

Stop using `the_repository` in `setup_work_tree()` and instead accept

Note that the function tracks two bits of information via global

can set up worktrees for arbitrary repositories:
- We track whether the worktree has already been initialized and, if
so, we skip the call to `chdir_notify()` and setenv(3p). It does not
make much sense to store this info in the repository, as we _would_
want to update the environment when switching between worktrees back
and forth.
So instead of storing this info in the repository, we drop this
state entirely and live with the fact that we may execute the logic
twice. It should ultimately be idempotent though and thus not be
much of a problem.
- We track whether the worktree configuration is bogus. If so, and if
later on some caller tries to setup the worktree, then we'll die
instead. This is indeed information that we can move into the
repository itself.

Similar as with the preceding commit, `is_inside_work_tree()` determines
whether the current working directory is located inside the worktree of
`the_repository`. Perform the same refactoring by dropping the caching
mechanism and injecting the repository that shall be checked.
Note that, same as in the preceding commit, we're also resolving the
worktree path via `realpath()`. In theory this step is not necessary as
we always set the worktree path via `repo_set_worktree()`, and that
function already resolves the path for us. But resolving the path a
second time is unlikely to matter performance-wise, and it feels fragile
to rely on the repository's worktree path being absolute. We thus
perform the same extra step even though it's ultimately not required.

The function `is_inside_git_dir()` verifies whether or not the current
working directory is located inside the gitdir of `the_repository`. This
is done by taking the gitdir path and verifying that it's a prefix of
the current working directory.
This information is cached so that we don't have to re-do this change
multiple times. Furthermore, we proactively set the value in multiple
locations so that we don't even have to perform the check when we have
discovered the repository.
While we could simply move the caching variable into the repository, the
current layout doesn't really feel sensible in the first place:
- It can easily lead to false positives or negatives if at any point
in time we may switch the current working directory.
- We don't call the function in a hot loop, and neither is it overly
expensive to compute.
Drop the caching infrastructure and instead compute the property ad-hoc
via an injected repository.
Note that there is one small gotcha: we often end up with relative
gitdir paths, and if so `is_inside_dir()` might fail. This wasn't an
issue before because of how we proactively set the cached value during
repository discovery. Now that we stop doing that it becomes a problem
though, which we work around by resolving the gitdir via `realpath()`.

When running git-maintenance(1), we create a lockfile that is supposed
to keep other maintenance processes from running at the same time. This
lockfile is broken though in case the "--detach" flag is passed: the
lockfile is created by the parent process and will be cleaned up either
manually or on exit. But when detaching, the parent will exit before all
of the background maintenance tasks have been run, and consequently the
lock only covers a smaller part of the whole maintenance process.
Fix this bug by reassigning all tempfiles from the parent process to the
child process when daemonizing so that it becomes the responsibility of
the child to clean them up.
Note that this is a broader fix, as we now always reassign tempfiles
when daemonizing. This is a natural consequence of the semantics of
`daemonize()` though, as it essentially promises to continue running the
current process in the background. It is thus sensible to have that
function perform the whole dance of assigning resources to the child
process, including tempfiles.
There's only a single other caller in "daemon.c", but that process
doesn't create any tempfiles before the call to `daemonize()` and is
thus not impacted by this change.

When an attacker can convince a user to clone a crafted repository
that contains an embedded bare repository with malicious hooks, any Git
command the user runs after entering that subdirectory will discover
the bare repository and execute the hooks. The user does not even need
to run a Git command explicitly: many shell prompts run `git status`
in the background to display branch and dirty state information, and
`git status` in turn may invoke the fsmonitor hook if so configured,
making the user vulnerable the moment they `cd` into the directory. The
`safe.bareRepository` configuration variable (introduced in 8959555cee
(setup_git_directory(): add an owner check for the top-level directory,
2022-03-02)) already provides protection against this attack vector by
allowing users to set it to "explicit", but the default remained "all"
for backwards compatibility.
Since Git 3.0 is the natural point to change defaults to safer
values, flip the default from "all" to "explicit" when built with
`WITH_BREAKING_CHANGES`. This means Git will refuse to work with bare
repositories that are discovered implicitly by walking up the directory
tree. Bare repositories specified via `--git-dir` or `GIT_DIR` continue
to work, and directories that look like `.git`, worktrees, or submodule
directories are unaffected (the existing `is_implicit_bare_repo()`
whitelist handles those cases).
Users who rely on implicit bare repository discovery can restore the
previous behavior by setting `safe.bareRepository=all` in their global
or system configuration.
The test for the "safe.bareRepository in the repository" scenario
needed a more involved fix: it writes a `safe.bareRepository=all`
entry into the bare repository's own config to verify that repo-local
config does not override the protected (global) setting. Previously,
`test_config -C` was used to write that entry, but its cleanup runs `git
-C <bare-repo> config --unset`, which itself fails when the default is
"explicit" and the global config has already been cleaned up. Switching
to direct git config --file access avoids going through repository
discovery entirely.

1. Update 'read_gitfile_error_die()' to treat 'IS_A_DIR', 'MISSING',
'NOT_A_FILE' and 'STAT_FAILED' as non-fatal no-ops. This accommodates
intentional non-repo scenarios (e.g., GIT_DIR=/dev/null).
2. Explicitly catch 'NOT_A_FILE' and 'STAT_FAILED' during
discovery and call 'die()' if 'die_on_error' is set.
3. Unconditionally pass '&error_code' to 'read_gitfile_gently()'.
4. Only invoke 'is_git_directory()' when we explicitly receive
'READ_GITFILE_ERR_IS_A_DIR', avoiding redundant checks.
Additionally, audit external callers of 'read_gitfile_gently()' in

Git allows setting a different object directory via
'GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY', but provides no equivalent for references. In
the previous commit we extended the 'extensions.refStorage' config to

Let's also add a new environment variable 'GIT_REFERENCE_BACKEND' that
takes in the same input as the config variable. Having an environment
variable allows us to modify the reference backend and location on the
fly for individual Git commands.
The environment variable also allows usage of alternate reference
directories during 'git-clone(1)' and 'git-init(1)'. Add the config to
the repository when created with the environment variable set.
When initializing the repository with an alternate reference folder,
create the required stubs in the repositories $GIT_DIR. The inverse,
i.e. removal of the ref store doesn't clean up the stubs in the $GIT_DIR
since that would render it unusable. Removal of ref store is only used
when migrating between ref formats and cleanup of the $GIT_DIR doesn't
make sense in such a situation.

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.

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.

require migration (for example via git submodule--helper command
added in the next commit).

The idea of this extension is to abstract away the submodule gitdir
path implementation: everyone is expected to use the config and not
worry about how the path is computed internally, either in git or
other implementations.
With this extension enabled, the submodule.<name>.gitdir repo config
becomes the single source of truth for all submodule gitdir paths.
The submodule.<name>.gitdir config is added automatically for all new
submodules when this extension is enabled.
Git will throw an error if the extension is enabled and a config is
missing, advising users how to migrate. Migration is manual for now.
E.g. to add a missing config entry for an existing "foo" module:
git config submodule.foo.gitdir .git/modules/foo

In Git for Windows, `has_symlinks` is set to 0 by default. Therefore, we
need to parse the config setting `core.symlinks` to know if it has been
set to `true`. In `git init`, we must do that before copying the
templates because they might contain symbolic links.
Even if the support for symbolic links on Windows has not made it to
upstream Git yet, we really should make sure that all the `core.*`
settings are parsed before proceeding, as they might very well change
the behavior of `git init` in a way the user intended.

Code refactoring around object database sources.
* ps/object-source-management:
odb: handle recreation of quarantine directories
odb: handle changing a repository's commondir
chdir-notify: add function to unregister listeners
odb: handle initialization of sources in `odb_new()`
http-push: stop setting up `the_repository` for each reference
t/helper: stop setting up `the_repository` repeatedly
builtin/index-pack: fix deferred fsck outside repos
oidset: introduce `oidset_equal()`
odb: move logic to disable ref updates into repo
odb: refactor `odb_clear()` to `odb_free()`
odb: adopt logic to close object databases
setup: convert `set_git_dir()` to have file scope
path: move `enter_repo()` into "setup.c"
"git config get --path" segfaulted on an ":(optional)path" that
does not exist, which has been corrected.
* jc/optional-path:
config: really treat missing optional path as not configured
config: really pretend missing :(optional) value is not there
config: mark otherwise unused function as file-scope static
In the preceding commit we have moved the logic that reparents object
database sources on chdir(3p) from "setup.c" into "odb.c". Let's also do
the same for any temporary quarantine directories so that the complete
reparenting logic is self-contained in "odb.c".

The function `repo_set_gitdir()` is called in two situations:
- To initialize the repository with its discovered location. As part
of this we also set up the new object database.
- To update the repository's discovered location in case the process
changes its working directory so that we update relative paths. This
means we also have to update any relative paths that are potentially
used in the object database.
In the context of the object database we ideally wouldn't ever have to
worry about the second case: if all paths used by our object database
sources were absolute, then we wouldn't have to update them. But
unfortunately, the paths aren't only used to locate files owned by the
given source, but we also use them for reporting purposes. One such
example is `repo_get_object_directory()`, where we cannot just change
semantics to always return absolute paths, as that is likely to break
tooling out there.
One solution to this would be to have both a "display path" and an
"internal path". This would allow us to use internal paths for all
internal matters, but continue to use the potentially-relative display
paths so that we don't break compatibility. But converting the codebase
to honor this split is quite a messy endeavour, and it wouldn't even
help us with the goal to get rid of the need to update the display path
on chdir(3p).
Another solution would be to rework "setup.c" so that we never have to
update paths in the first place. In that case, we'd only initialize the
repository once we have figured out final locations for all directories.
This would be a significant simplification of that subsystem indeed, but
the current logic is so messy that it would take significant investments
to get there.
Meanwhile though, while object sources may still use relative paths, the
best thing we can do is to handle the reparenting of the object source
paths in the object database itself. This can be done by registering one
callback for each object database so that we get notified whenever the
current working directory changes, and we then perform the reparenting
ourselves.
Ideally, this wouldn't even happen on the object database level, but
instead handled by each object database source. But we don't yet have
proper pluggable object database sources, so this will need to be
handled at a later point in time.
The logic itself is rather simple:
- We register the callback when creating the object database.
- We unregister the callback when releasing it again.
- We split up `set_git_dir_1()` so that it becomes possible to skip
recreating the object database. This is required because the
function is called both when the current working directory changes,
but also when we set up the repository. Calling this function
without skipping creation of the ODB will result in a bug in case
it's already created.

Our object database sources have a field `disable_ref_updates`. This
field can obviously be set to disable reference updates, but it is
somewhat curious that this logic is hosted by the object database.
The reason for this is that it was primarily added to keep us from
accidentally updating references while an ODB transaction is ongoing.
Any objects part of the transaction have not yet been committed to disk,
so new references that point to them might get corrupted in case we
never end up committing the transaction. As such, whenever we create a
new transaction we set up a new temporary ODB source and mark it as
disabling reference updates.
This has one (and only one?) upside: once we have committed the
transaction, the temporary source will be dropped and thus we clean up
the disabled reference updates automatically. But other than that, it's
somewhat misdesigned:
- We can have multiple ODB sources, but only the currently active
source inhibits reference updates.
- We're mixing concerns of the refdb with the ODB.
Arguably, the decision of whether we can update references or not should
be handled by the refdb. But that wouldn't be a great fit either, as
there can be one refdb per worktree. So we'd again have the same problem
that a "global" intent becomes localized to a specific instance.
Instead, move the setting into the repository. While at it, convert it
into a boolean.

These callers expect that git_config_pathname() that returns 0 is a
signal that the variable they passed has a string they need to act
on. But with the introduction of ":(optional)path" earlier, that is
no longer the case. If the path specified by the configuration
variable is missing, their variable will get a NULL in it, and they
need to act on it (often, just refraining from copying it elsewhere).

We don't have any external callers of `set_git_dir()` anymore now that
`enter_repo()` has been moved into "setup.c". Remove the declaration and
mark the function as static.
Note that this change requires us to move the implementation around so
that we can avoid adding any new forward declarations.
