A handful of code paths had to read the commit object more than
once when showing header fields that are usually not parsed. The
internal data structure to keep track of the contents of the commit
object has been updated to reduce the need for this double-reading,
and to allow the caller find the length of the object.
* jk/commit-buffer-length:
reuse cached commit buffer when parsing signatures
commit: record buffer length in cache
commit: convert commit->buffer to a slab
commit-slab: provide a static initializer
use get_commit_buffer everywhere
convert logmsg_reencode to get_commit_buffer
use get_commit_buffer to avoid duplicate code
use get_cached_commit_buffer where appropriate
provide helpers to access the commit buffer
provide a helper to set the commit buffer
provide a helper to free commit buffer
sequencer: use logmsg_reencode in get_message
logmsg_reencode: return const buffer
do not create "struct commit" with xcalloc
commit: push commit_index update into alloc_commit_node
alloc: include any-object allocations in alloc_report
replace dangerous uses of strbuf_attach
commit_tree: take a pointer/len pair rather than a const strbuf
Most callsites which use the commit buffer try to use the
cached version attached to the commit, rather than
re-reading from disk. Unfortunately, that interface provides
only a pointer to the NUL-terminated buffer, with no
indication of the original length.
For the most part, this doesn't matter. People do not put
NULs in their commit messages, and the log code is happy to
treat it all as a NUL-terminated string. However, some code
paths do care. For example, when checking signatures, we
want to be very careful that we verify all the bytes to
avoid malicious trickery.
This patch just adds an optional "size" out-pointer to
get_commit_buffer and friends. The existing callers all pass
NULL (there did not seem to be any obvious sites where we
could avoid an immediate strlen() call, though perhaps with
some further refactoring we could).

Each of these sites assumes that commit->buffer is valid.
Since they would segfault if this was not the case, they are
likely to be correct in practice. However, we can
future-proof them by using get_commit_buffer.
And as a side effect, we abstract away the final bare uses
of commit->buffer.

In both blame and merge-recursive, we sometimes create a
"fake" commit struct for convenience (e.g., to represent the
HEAD state as if we would commit it). By allocating
ourselves rather than using alloc_commit_node, we do not
properly set the "index" field of the commit. This can
produce subtle bugs if we then use commit-slab on the
resulting commit, as we will share the "0" index with
another commit.
We can fix this by using alloc_commit_node() to allocate.
Note that we cannot free the result, as it is part of our
commit allocator. However, both cases were already leaking
the allocated commit anyway, so there's nothing to fix up.

On a case-insensitive filesystem, when merging, a file would be
wrongly deleted from the working tree if an incoming commit had
renamed it changing only its case. When merging a rename, the file
with the old name would be deleted -- but since the filesystem
considers the old name to be the same as the new name, the new
file would in fact be deleted.
We avoid this by not deleting files that have a case-clone in the
index at stage 0.

I attempted to make index_state->cache[] a "const struct cache_entry **"
to find out how existing entries in index are modified and where. The
question I have is what do we do if we really need to keep track of on-disk
changes in the index. The result is
- diff-lib.c: setting CE_UPTODATE
- name-hash.c: setting CE_HASHED
- preload-index.c, read-cache.c, unpack-trees.c and
builtin/update-index: obvious
- entry.c: write_entry() may refresh the checked out entry via
fill_stat_cache_info(). This causes "non-const struct cache_entry
*" in builtin/apply.c, builtin/checkout-index.c and
builtin/checkout.c
- builtin/ls-files.c: --with-tree changes stagemask and may set
CE_UPDATE
Of these, write_entry() and its call sites are probably most
interesting because it modifies on-disk info. But this is stat info
and can be retrieved via refresh, at least for porcelain
commands. Other just uses ce_flags for local purposes.
So, keeping track of "dirty" entries is just a matter of setting a
flag in index modification functions exposed by read-cache.c. Except
unpack-trees, the rest of the code base does not do anything funny
behind read-cache's back.
The actual patch is less valueable than the summary above. But if
anyone wants to re-identify the above sites. Applying this patch, then
this:

Forbids rename detection logic from matching two empty files as renames
during merge-recursive to prevent mismerges.
By Jeff King
* jk/diff-no-rename-empty:
merge-recursive: don't detect renames of empty files
teach diffcore-rename to optionally ignore empty content
make is_empty_blob_sha1 available everywhere
drop casts from users EMPTY_TREE_SHA1_BIN
Resurrects the preparatory clean-up patches from another topic that was
discarded, as this would give a saner foundation to build on diff.algo
configuration option series.
* jc/diff-algo-cleanup:
xdiff: PATIENCE/HISTOGRAM are not independent option bits
xdiff: remove XDL_PATCH_* macros
Merge-recursive detects renames so that if one side modifies
"foo" and the other side moves it to "bar", the modification
is applied to "bar". However, our rename detection is based
on content analysis, it can be wrong (i.e., two files were
not intended as a rename, but just happen to have the same
or similar content).
This is quite rare if the files actually contain content,
since two unrelated files are unlikely to have exactly the
same content. However, empty files present a problem, in
that there is nothing to analyze. An uninteresting
placeholder file with zero bytes may or may not be related
to a placeholder file with another name.
The result is that adding content to an empty file may cause
confusion if the other side of a merge removed it; your
content may end up in another random placeholder file that
was added.
Let's err on the side of caution and not consider empty
files as renames. This will cause a modify/delete conflict
on the merge, which will let the user sort it out
themselves.

The merge-recursive code uses the commit->util field directly to annotate
the commit objects given from the command line, i.e. the remote heads to
be merged, with a single string to be used to describe it in its trace
messages and conflict markers.
Correct this short-signtedness by redefining the field to be a pointer to
a structure "struct merge_remote_desc" that later enhancements can add
more information. Store the original objects we were told to merge in a
field "obj" in this struct, so that we can recover the tag we were told to

the heads of:
