When repacking, the function `collect_pack_filenames()` is responsible
for collecting the set of existing packs in the repository, and
partitioning them into "kept" (if the pack has a ".keep" file or was
given via `--keep-pack`) and "nonkept" (otherwise) lists.
This function comes from the original C port of git-repack.sh from back
in a1bbc6c017 (repack: rewrite the shell script in C, 2013-09-15),
where it first appears as `get_non_kept_pack_filenames()`. At the time,
the implementation was a fairly direct translation from the relevant
portion of git-repack.sh, which looped over the results of
find "$PACKDIR" -type f -name '*.pack'
either ignoring the pack as kept, or adding it to the list of existing
packs.
So the choice to directly translate this function in terms of
`readdir()` in a1bbc6c017 made sense. At the time, it was possible to
refine the C version in terms of packed_git structs, but was never done.
However, manually enumerating a repository's packs via `readdir()` is
confusing and error-prone. It leads to frustrating inconsistencies
between which packs Git considers to be part of a repository (i.e.,
could be found in the list of packs from `get_all_packs()`), and which
packs `collect_pack_filenames()` considers to meet the same criteria.
This bit us in 73320e49ad (builtin/repack.c: only collect fully-formed
packs, 2023-06-07), and again in the previous commit.
Prevent these issues from biting us in the future by implementing the
`collect_pack_filenames()` function by looping over an array of pointers
to `packed_git` structs, ensuring that we use the same criteria to
determine the set of available packs.
One gotcha here is that we have to ignore non-local packs, since the
original version of `collect_pack_filenames()` only looks at the local
pack directory to collect existing packs.

In 73320e49ad (builtin/repack.c: only collect fully-formed packs,
2023-06-07), we switched the check for which packs to collect by
starting at the .idx files and looking for matching .pack files. This
avoids trying to repack pack-files that have not had their pack-indexes
installed yet.
However, it does cause maintenance to halt if we find the (problematic,
but not insurmountable) case of a .idx file without a corresponding
.pack file. In an environment where packfile maintenance is a critical
function, such a hard stop is costly and requires human intervention to
resolve (by deleting the .idx file).
This was not the case before. We successfully repacked through this
scenario until the recent change to scan for .idx files.
Further, if we are actually in a case where objects are missing, we
detect this at a different point during the reachability walk.
In other cases, Git prepares its list of packfiles by scanning .idx
files and then only adds it to the packfile list if the corresponding
.pack file exists. It even does so without a warning! (See
add_packed_git() in packfile.c for details.)
This case is much less likely to occur than the failures seen before
73320e49ad. Packfiles are "installed" by writing the .pack file before
the .idx and that process can be interrupted. Packfiles _should_ be
deleted by deleting the .idx first, followed by the .pack file, but
unlink_pack_path() does not do this: it deletes the .pack _first_,
allowing a window where this process could be interrupted. We leave the
consideration of changing this order as a separate concern. Knowing that
this condition is possible from interrupted Git processes and not other
tools lends some weight that Git should be more flexible around this
scenario.
Add a check to see if the .pack file exists before adding it to the list
for repacking. This will stop a number of maintenance failures seen in
production but fixed by deleting the .idx files.
This brings us closer to the case before 73320e49ad in that 'git
repack' will not fail when there is an orphaned .idx file, at least, not
due to the way we scan for packfiles. In the case that the .pack file
was erroneously deleted without copies of its objects in other installed
packfiles, then 'git repack' will fail due to the reachable object walk.
This does resolve the case where automated repacks will no longer be
halted on this case. The tests in t7700 show both these successful
scenarios and the case of failing if the .pack was truly required.

When `git commit-graph verify` was taught how to verify commit-graph
chains in 3da4b609bb (commit-graph: verify chains with --shallow mode,
2019-06-18), it produced one line of progress per layer of the
commit-graph chain.
$ git.compile commit-graph verify
Verifying commits in commit graph: 100% (4356/4356), done.
Verifying commits in commit graph: 100% (131912/131912), done.
This could be somewhat confusing to users, who may wonder why there are
multiple occurrences of "Verifying commits in commit graph".
There are likely good arguments on whether or not there should be
one line of progress output per commit-graph layer. On the one hand, the
existing output shows us verifying each individual layer of the chain.
But on the other hand, the fact that a commit-graph may be stored among
multiple layers is an implementation detail that the caller need not be
aware of.
Clarify this by showing a single progress meter regardless of the number
of layers in the commit-graph chain. After this patch, the output
reflects the logical contents of a commit-graph chain, instead of
showing one line of output per commit-graph layer:
$ git.compile commit-graph verify
Verifying commits in commit graph: 100% (136268/136268), done.

When the `verify_commit_graph()` function was extended to support
commit-graph chains via 3da4b609bb (commit-graph: verify chains with
--shallow mode, 2019-06-18), it did so by recursively calling itself on
each layer of the commit-graph chain.
In practice this poses no issues, since commit-graph chains do not loop,
and there are few enough of them that adding additional frames to the
stack is not a problem.
A future commit will consolidate the progress output from `git
commit-graph verify` when verifying chained commit-graphs to print a
single line instead of one progress meter per commit-graph layer.
Prepare for this by extracting a routine to verify a single layer of a
commit-graph.
Note that `verify_commit_graph()` is still recursive after this patch,
but this will change in the subsequent patch.

In a similar spirit as the previous commit, address a bug where `git
fsck` produces output when calling `git multi-pack-index verify` even
when invoked with `--no-progress`.
$ git.compile fsck --connectivity-only --no-progress --no-dangling
Verifying OID order in multi-pack-index: 100% (605677/605677), done.
Sorting objects by packfile: 100% (605678/605678), done.
Verifying object offsets: 100% (605678/605678), done.
The three lines produced by `git fsck` come from `git multi-pack-index
verify`, but should be squelched due to `--no-progress`.
The MIDX machinery learned to generate these progress messages as early
as 430efb8a74 (midx: add progress indicators in multi-pack-index
verify, 2019-03-21), but did not respect `--progress` or `--no-progress`
until ad60096d1c (midx: honor the MIDX_PROGRESS flag in
verify_midx_file, 2019-10-21).
But the `git multi-pack-index verify` step was added to fsck in
66ec0390e7 (fsck: verify multi-pack-index, 2018-09-13), pre-dating any
of the above patches.

Since e0fd51e1d7 (fsck: verify commit-graph, 2018-06-27), `fsck` runs
`git commit-graph verify` to check the integrity of any commit-graph(s).
Originally, the `git commit-graph verify` step would always print to
stdout/stderr, regardless of whether or not `fsck` was invoked with
`--[no-]progress` or not. But in 7371612255 (commit-graph: add
--[no-]progress to write and verify, 2019-08-26), the commit-graph
machinery learned the `--[no-]progress` option, though `fsck` was not

`--no-progress` on repositories that have a commit-graph:

The match_pathspec_item() function takes "prefix" value, allowing a
caller to chop off the common leading prefix of pathspec pattern
strings from the path and only use the remainder of the path to
match the pathspec patterns (after chopping the same leading prefix
of them, of course).
This "common leading prefix" optimization has two main features:
* discard the entries in the in-core index that are outside of the
common leading prefix; if you are doing "ls-files one/a one/b",
we know all matches must be from "one/", so first the code
discards all entries outside the "one/" directory from the
in-core index. This allows us to work on a smaller dataset.
* allow skipping the comparison of the leading bytes when matching
pathspec with path. When "ls-files" finds the path "one/a/1" in
the in-core index given "one/a" and "one/b" as the pathspec,
knowing that common leading prefix "one/" was found lets the
pathspec matchinery not to bother comparing "one/" part, and
allows it to feed "a/1" down, as long as the pathspec element
"one/a" gets corresponding adjustment to "a".
When the "attr" pathspec magic is in effect, however, the current
code breaks down.
The attributes, other than the ones that are built-in and the ones
that come from the $GIT_DIR/info/attributes file and the top-level
.gitattributes file, are lazily read from the filesystem on-demand,
as we encounter each path and ask if it matches the pathspec. For
example, if you say "git ls-files "(attr:label)sub/" in a repository
with a file "sub/file" that is given the 'label' attribute in
"sub/.gitattributes":
* The common prefix optimization finds that "sub/" is the common
prefix and prunes the in-core index so that it has only entries
inside that directory. This is desirable.
* The code then walks the in-core index, finds "sub/file", and
eventually asks do_match_pathspec() if it matches the given
pathspec.
* do_match_pathspec() calls match_pathspec_item() _after_ stripping
the common prefix "sub/" from the path, giving it "file", plus
the length of the common prefix (4-bytes), so that the pathspec
element "(attr:label)sub/" can be treated as if it were "(attr:label)".
The last one is what breaks the match in the current code, as the
pathspec subsystem ends up asking the attribute subsystem to find
the attribute attached to the path "file". We need to ask about the
attributes on "sub/file" when calling match_pathspec_attrs(); this
can be done by looking at "prefix" bytes before the beginning of
"name", which is the same trick already used by another piece of the
code in the same match_pathspec_item() function.
Unfortunately this was not discovered so far because the code works
with slightly different arguments, e.g.
$ git ls-files "(attr:label)sub"
$ git ls-files "(attr:label)sub/" "no/such/dir/"
would have reported "sub/file" as a path with the 'label' attribute
just fine, because neither would trigger the common prefix
optimization.

hex2chr() takes care not to run over the end of a NUL-terminated string.
It's used in packet_length(), but both callers of that function pass a
four-byte buffer, making NUL-checks unnecessary. packet_length() could
accidentally be used with a pointer to a buffer of unknown size at new
call-sites, though, and the compiler wouldn't complain.
Add a size parameter plus check, and remove the NUL-checks by calling
hexval() directly. This trades three NUL checks against one size check
and the ability to report the use of a short buffer at runtime.
If any of the four bytes is NUL or -- more generally -- not a
hexadecimal digit, then packet_length() still returns a negative value.

git ls-tree has two prefixes: The one handed to cmd_ls_tree(), i.e. the
current subdirectory in the repository (if any) and the "display" prefix
used by the show_tree_*() functions. The option --full-name clears the
last one, i.e. it shows full paths, and --full-tree clears both, i.e. it
acts as if the command was started in the root of the repository.
The show_tree_*() functions use the ls_tree_options members chomp_prefix
and ls_tree_prefix to determine their prefix values. Calculate it once
in cmd_ls_tree() instead, once the main prefix value is finalized.
This allows chomp_prefix to become a local variable. Stop using
strlen(3) to determine its initial value -- we only care whether we got
a non-empty string, not precisely how long it is.
Rename ls_tree_prefix to prefix to demonstrate that we converted all
users and because the ls_tree_ part is no longer necessary since

In some shells, such as bash and zsh, it's possible to use a command
substitution to provide the output of a command as a file argument to
another process, like so:
diff -u <(printf "a\nb\n") <(printf "a\nc\n")
However, this syntax does not produce useful results with "git diff
--no-index". On macOS, the arguments to the command are named pipes
under /dev/fd, and git diff doesn't know how to handle a named pipe. On
Linux, the arguments are symlinks to pipes, so git diff "helpfully"
diffs these symlinks, comparing their targets like "pipe:[1234]" and
"pipe:[5678]".
To address this "diff --no-index" is changed so that if a path given on
the commandline is a named pipe or a symbolic link that resolves to a
named pipe then we read the data to diff from that pipe. This is
implemented by generalizing the code that already exists to handle
reading from stdin when the user passes the path "-".
If the user tries to compare a named pipe to a directory then we die as
we do when trying to compare stdin to a directory.
As process substitution is not support by POSIX this change is tested by
using a pipe and a symbolic link to a pipe.
