Commit 8db2dad7a0 (parse_object(): check on-disk type of suspected blob,
2022-11-17) simplified the conditional for checking if we might have a
blob. But we can simplify it further. In:
!obj || (obj && obj->type == OBJ_BLOB)
the short-circuit "OR" means "obj" will always be true on the right-hand
side. The compiler almost certainly optimized that out anyway, but
dropping it makes the conditional easier to understand for humans.

The test case "push with config push.useBitmap" of t5516 was introduced

$ sh t5516-fetch-push.sh --run='1,115' -v
This is because "git-push" will run in a tty in this case, and the
subcommand "git pack-objects" will contain an argument "--progress"
instead of "-q". Adding a specific option "--quiet" to "git push" will
get a stable result for t5516.

In parse_object(), we try to handle blobs by streaming rather than
loading them entirely into memory. The most common case here will be
that we haven't seen the object yet and check oid_object_info(), which
tells us we have a blob.
But we trigger this code on one other case: when we have an in-memory
object struct with type OBJ_BLOB (and without its "parsed" flag set,
since otherwise we'd return early from the function). This indicates
that some other part of the code suspected we have a blob (e.g., it was
mentioned by a tree or tag) but we haven't yet looked at the on-disk
copy.
In this case before hitting the streaming path, we check if we have the
object on-disk at all. This is mostly pointless extra work, as the
streaming path would complain if it couldn't open the object (albeit
with the message "hash mismatch", which is a little misleading).
But it's also insufficient to catch all problems. The streaming code
will only tell us "yes, the on-disk object matches the oid". But it
doesn't actually confirm that what we found was indeed a blob, and
neither does repo_has_object_file().
One way to improve this would be to teach stream_object_signature() to
check the type (either by returning it to us to check, or taking an
"expected" type). But there's an even simpler fix here: if we suspect
the object is a blob, just call oid_object_info() to confirm that we
have it on-disk, and that it really is a blob.
This is slightly less efficient than teaching stream_object_signature()
to do it (since it has to open the object already). But this case very
rarely comes up. In practice, we usually don't have any clue what the
type is, in which case we already call oid_object_info(). This
"suspected" case happens only when some other code created an object
struct but didn't actually parse the blob, which is actually tricky to
trigger at all (see the discussion of the test below).
I reworked the conditional a bit so that instead of:
if ((suspected_blob && oid_object_info() == OBJ_BLOB)
(no_clue && oid_object_info() == OBJ_BLOB)
we have the simpler:
if ((suspected_blob || no_clue) && oid_object_info() == OBJ_BLOB)
This is shorter, but also reflects what we really want say, which is
"have we ruled out this being a blob; if not, check it on-disk".
In either case, if oid_object_info() fails to tell us it's a blob, we'll
skip the streaming code path and call repo_read_object_file(), just as
before. And if we really do have a mismatch with the existing object
struct, we'll eventually call lookup_commit(), etc, via
parse_object_buffer(), which will complain that it doesn't match our
existing obj->type.
So this fixes one of the lingering expect_failure cases from 0616617c7e
(t: introduce tests for unexpected object types, 2019-04-09). That test
works by peeling a tag that claims to point to a blob (triggering us to
create the struct), but really points to something else, which we later
discover when we call parse_object() as part of the actual traversal).
Prior to this commit, we'd quietly check the sha1 and mark the blob as
"parsed". Now we correctly complain about the mismatch.

When parsing an object of unknown type, we check to see if it's a blob,
so we can use our streaming code path. This uses oid_object_info() to
check the type, but before doing so we call repo_has_object_file(). This
latter is pointless, as oid_object_info() will already fail if the
object is missing. Checking it ahead of time just complicates the code
and is a waste of resources (albeit small).
Let's drop the redundant check.

When serving a push, git-receive-pack(1) needs to verify that the
packfile sent by the client contains all objects that are required by
the updated references. This connectivity check works by marking all
preexisting references as uninteresting and using the new reference tips
as starting point for a graph walk.
Marking all preexisting references as uninteresting can be a problem
when it comes to performance. Git forges tend to do internal bookkeeping
to keep alive sets of objects for internal use or make them easy to find
via certain references. These references are typically hidden away from
the user so that they are neither advertised nor writeable. At GitLab,
we have one particular repository that contains a total of 7 million
references, of which 6.8 million are indeed internal references. With
the current connectivity check we are forced to load all these
references in order to mark them as uninteresting, and this alone takes
around 15 seconds to compute.
We can optimize this by only taking into account the set of visible refs
when marking objects as uninteresting. This means that we may now walk
more objects until we hit any object that is marked as uninteresting.
But it is rather unlikely that clients send objects that make large
parts of objects reachable that have previously only ever been hidden,
whereas the common case is to push incremental changes that build on top
of the visible object graph.
This provides a huge boost to performance in the mentioned repository,
where the vast majority of its refs hidden. Pushing a new commit into
this repo with `transfer.hideRefs` set up to hide 6.8 million of 7 refs
as it is configured in Gitaly leads to a 4.5-fold speedup:
Benchmark 1: main
Time (mean ± σ): 30.977 s ± 0.157 s [User: 30.226 s, System: 1.083 s]
Range (min … max): 30.796 s … 31.071 s 3 runs

Summary
'pks-connectivity-check-hide-refs' ran
4.56 ± 0.05 times faster than 'main'
As we mostly go through the same codepaths even in the case where there
are no hidden refs at all compared to the code before there is no change
in performance when no refs are hidden:
Benchmark 1: main
Time (mean ± σ): 48.188 s ± 0.432 s [User: 49.326 s, System: 5.009 s]

We're about to add a new argument to git-rev-list(1) that allows it to
add all references that are visible when taking `transfer.hideRefs` et
al into account. This will require us to potentially parse multiple sets
of hidden refs, which is not easily possible right now as there is only
a single, global instance of the list of parsed hidden refs.
Refactor `parse_hide_refs_config()` and `ref_is_hidden()` so that both
take the list of hidden references as input and adjust callers to keep a
local list, instead. This allows us to easily use multiple hidden-ref
lists. Furthermore, it allows us to properly free this list before we
exit.

When parsing the hideRefs configuration, we first duplicate the config
value so that we can modify it. We then subsequently append it to the
`hide_refs` string list, which is initialized with `strdup_strings`
enabled. As a consequence we again reallocate the string, but never
free the first duplicate and thus have a memory leak.
While we never clean up the static `hide_refs` variable anyway, this is
no excuse to make the leak worse by leaking every value twice. We are
also about to change the way this variable will be handled so that we do
indeed start to clean it up. So let's fix the memory leak by using the
`string_list_append_nodup()` so that we pass ownership of the allocated
string to `hide_refs`.

When `git notes` prepares the template it adds an empty newline between
