t5312: test object deletion code paths in a corrupted repository When we are doing a destructive operation like "git prune", we want to be extra careful that the set of reachable tips we compute is valid. If there is any corruption or oddity, we are better off aborting the operation and letting the user figure things out rather than plowing ahead and possibly deleting some data that cannot be recovered. The tests here include: 1. Pruning objects mentioned only be refs with invalid names. This used to abort prior to d0f810f (refs.c: allow listing and deleting badly named refs, 2014-09-03), but since then we silently ignore the tip. Likewise, we test repacking that can drop objects (either "-ad", which drops anything unreachable, or "-Ad --unpack-unreachable=<time>", which tries to optimize out a loose object write that would be directly pruned). 2. Pruning objects when some refs point to missing objects. We don't know whether any dangling objects would have been reachable from the missing objects. We are better to keep them around, as they are better than nothing for helping the user recover history. 3. Packed refs that point to missing objects can sometimes be dropped. By itself, this is more of an annoyance (you do not have the object anyway; even if you can recover it from elsewhere, all you are losing is a placeholder for your state at the time of corruption). But coupled with (2), if we drop the ref and then go on to prune, we may lose unrecoverable objects. Note that we use test_might_fail for some of the operations. In some cases, it would be appropriate to abort the operation, and in others, it might be acceptable to continue but taking the information into account. The tests don't care either way, and check only for data loss. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

test_description='
Test pruning of repositories with minor corruptions. The goal
here is that we should always be erring on the side of safety. So
if we see, for example, a ref with a bogus name, it is OK either to
bail out or to proceed using it as a reachable tip, but it is _not_
OK to proceed as if it did not exist. Otherwise we might silently
delete objects that cannot be recovered.

refs.c: drop curate_packed_refs When we delete a ref, we have to rewrite the entire packed-refs file. We take this opportunity to "curate" the packed-refs file and drop any entries that are crufty or broken. Dropping broken entries (e.g., with bogus names, or ones that point to missing objects) is actively a bad idea, as it means that we lose any notion that the data was there in the first place. Aside from the general hackiness that we might lose any information about ref "foo" while deleting an unrelated ref "bar", this may seriously hamper any attempts by the user at recovering from the corruption in "foo". They will lose the sha1 and name of "foo"; the exact pointer may still be useful even if they recover missing objects from a different copy of the repository. But worse, once the ref is gone, there is no trace of the corruption. A follow-up "git prune" may delete objects, even though it would otherwise bail when seeing corruption. We could just drop the "broken" bits from curate_packed_refs, and continue to drop the "crufty" bits: refs whose loose counterpart exists in the filesystem. This is not wrong to do, and it does have the advantage that we may write out a slightly smaller packed-refs file. But it has two disadvantages: 1. It is a potential source of races or mistakes with respect to these refs that are otherwise unrelated to the operation. To my knowledge, there aren't any active problems in this area, but it seems like an unnecessary risk. 2. We have to spend time looking up the matching loose refs for every item in the packed-refs file. If you have a large number of packed refs that do not change, that outweighs the benefit from writing out a smaller packed-refs file (it doesn't get smaller, and you do a bunch of directory traversal to find that out).
