Adding a repository that uses a different hash function is a no-no,
but "git submodule add" did nt prevent it, which has been corrected.
* bc/submodule-force-same-hash:
read-cache: drop submodule check from add_to_cache()
object-file: disallow adding submodules of different hash algo
In add_to_cache(), we treat any directories as submodules, and complain
if we can't resolve their HEAD. This call to resolve_gitlink_ref() was
added by f937bc2f86 (add: error appropriately on repository with no
commits, 2019-04-09), with the goal of improving the error message for
empty repositories.
But we already resolve the submodule HEAD in index_path(), which is
where we find the actual oid we're going to use. Resolving it again here
introduces some downsides:
1. It's more work, since we have to open up the submodule repository's
files twice.
2. There are call paths that get to index_path() without going through
add_to_cache(). For instance, we'd want a similar informative
message if "git diff empty" finds that it can't resolve the
submodule's HEAD. (In theory we can also get there through
update-index, but AFAICT it refuses to consider directories as
submodules at all, and just complains about them).
3. The resolution in index_path() catches more errors that we don't
handle here. In particular, it will validate that the object format
for the submodule matches that of the superproject. This isn't a
bug, since our call in add_to_cache() throws away the oid it gets
without looking at it. But it certainly caused confusion for me
when looking at where the object-format check should go.
So instead of resolving the submodule HEAD in add_to_cache(), let's just
teach the call in index_path() to actually produce an error message
(which it already does for other cases). That's probably what f937bc2f86
should have done in the first place, and it gives us a single point of
resolution when adding a submodule to the index.
The resulting output is slightly more verbose, as we propagate the error
up the call stack, but I think that's OK (and again, matches many other
errors we get when indexing fails).
I've left the text of the error message as-is, though it is perhaps
overly specific. There are many reasons that resolving the submodule
HEAD might fail, though outside of corruption or system errors it is
probably most likely that the submodule HEAD is simply on an unborn
branch.

The design of the hash algorithm transition plan is that objects stored
must be entirely in one algorithm since we lack any way to indicate a
mix of algorithms. This also includes submodules, but we have
traditionally not enforced this, which leads to various problems when
trying to clone or check out the the submodule from the remote.
Since this cannot work in the general case, restrict adding a submodule
of a different algorithm to the index. Add tests for git add and git
submodule add that these are rejected.
Note that we cannot check this in git fsck because the malformed
submodule is stored in the tree as an object ID which is either
truncated (when a SHA-256 submodule is added to a SHA-1 repository) or
padded with zeros (when a SHA-1 submodule is added to a SHA-256
repository). We cannot detect even the latter case because someone
could have an actual submodule that actually ends in 24 zeros, which
would be a false positive.

We have two different ways to write an object into the database:
- We either provide the full buffer and write the object all at once.
- Or we provide an input stream that has a `read()` function so that
we can chunk the object.
The latter is especially used for large objects, where it may be too
expensive to hold the complete object in memory all at once.
While we already have `odb_write_object()` at the ODB-layer, we don't
have an equivalent for streaming an object. Introduce a new function
`odb_write_object_stream()` to address this gap so that callers don't
have to be aware of the inner workings of how to stream an object to
disk with a specific object source.
Rename `stream_loose_object()` to `odb_source_loose_write_stream()` to
clarify its scope. This matches our modern best practices around how to
name functions.

When writing an object that already exists in our object database we
skip the write and instead only update mtimes of the object, either in
its packed or loose object format. This logic is wholly contained in
"object-file.c", but that file is really only concerned with loose
objects. So it does not really make sense that it also contains the
logic to freshen a packed object.
Introduce a new `odb_freshen_object()` function that sits on the object
database level and two functions `packfile_store_freshen_object()` and
`odb_source_loose_freshen_object()`. Like this, the format-specific
functions can be part of their respective subsystems, while the backend
agnostic function to freshen an object sits at the object database
layer.
Note that this change also moves the logic that iterates through object
sources from the object source layer into the object database layer.
This change is intentional: object sources should ideally only have to
worry about themselves, and coordination of different sources should be
handled on the object database level.

When reading an object via `loose_object_info()` or `map_loose_object()`

question.
This logic is reversing responsibility though: a specific backend should
only care about one specific source, where the object sources themselves
are then managed by the object database.
Refactor the code accordingly by passing an object source to both of
these functions instead. The different sources are then handled by
either `do_oid_object_info_extended()`, which sits on the object

The former is already handled by `odb_source_loose_free()`. But the

ODB transactions support being nested. Only the outermost
{begin,end}_odb_transaction() start and finish a transaction. This
allows internal object write codepaths to be optimized with ODB
transactions without worrying about whether a transaction is already
active. When {begin,end}_odb_transaction() is invoked during an active
transaction, these operations are essentially treated as no-ops. This
can make the interface a bit awkward to use, as calling
end_odb_transaction() does not guarantee that a transaction is actually
ended. Thus, in situations where a transaction needs to be explicitly
flushed, flush_odb_transaction() must be used.
To remove the need for an explicit transaction flush operation via
flush_odb_transaction() and better clarify transaction semantics, drop
the transaction nesting mechanism in favor of begin_odb_transaction()
returning a NULL transaction value to signal it was a no-op, and
end_odb_transaction() behaving as a no-op when a NULL transaction value
is passed. This is safe for existing callers as the transaction value
wired to end_odb_transaction() already comes from
begin_odb_transaction() and thus continues the same no-op behavior when
a transaction is already pending. With this model, passing a pending
transaction to end_odb_transaction() ensures it is committed at that
point in time.

The bulk-checkin subsystem provides a mechanism to write blobs directly
to a packfile via `index_blob_bulk_checkin()`. If there is an ongoing
transaction when invoked, objects written via this function are stored
in the same packfile. The packfile is not flushed until the transaction
itself is flushed. If there is no transaction, the single object is
written to a packfile and immediately flushed. This complicates
`index_blob_bulk_checkin()` as it cannot reliably use the provided
transaction to get the associated repository.
Update `index_blob_bulk_checkin()` to assume that a valid transaction is
always provided. Callers are now expected to ensure a transaction is set
up beforehand. With this simplification, `deflate_blob_bulk_checkin()`
is no longer needed as a standalone internal function and is combined
with `index_blob_bulk_checkin()`. The single call site in
`object-file.c:index_fd()` is updated accordingly. Due to how
`{begin,end}_odb_transaction()` handles nested transactions, a new
transaction is only created and committed if there is not already an
ongoing transaction.

The `object_directory` structure is used as an access point for a single
object directory like ".git/objects". While the structure isn't yet
fully self-contained, the intent is for it to eventually contain all
information required to access objects in one specific location.
While the name "object directory" is a good fit for now, this will
change over time as we continue with the agenda to make pluggable object
databases a thing. Eventually, objects may not be accessed via any kind
of directory at all anymore, but they could instead be backed by any
kind of durable storage mechanism. While it seems quite far-fetched for
now, it is thinkable that eventually this might even be some form of a
database, for example.
As such, the current name of this structure will become worse over time
as we evolve into the direction of pluggable ODBs. Immediate next steps
will start to carve out proper self-contained object directories, which
requires us to pass in these object directories as parameters. Based on
our modern naming schema this means that those functions should then be
named after their subsystem, which means that we would start to bake the
current name into the codebase more and more.
Let's preempt this by renaming the structure. There have been a couple
alternatives that were discussed:
- `odb_backend` was discarded because it led to the association that
one object database has a single backend, but the model is that one
alternate has one backend. Furthermore, "backend" is more about the
actual backing implementation and less about the high-level concept.
- `odb_alternate` was discarded because it is a bit of a stretch to
also call the main object directory an "alternate".
Instead, pick `odb_source` as the new name. It makes it sufficiently
clear that there can be multiple sources and does not cause confusion
when mixed with the already-existing "alternate" terminology.
In the future, this change allows us to easily introduce for example a
`odb_files_source` and other format-specific implementations.

When fsck-ing a loose object, we use object_info's type_name strbuf to
record the parsed object type as a string. For most objects this is
redundant with the object_type enum, but it does let us report the
string when we encounter an object with an unknown type (for which there
is no matching enum value).
There are a few downsides, though:
1. The code to report these cases is not actually robust. Since we did
not pass a strbuf to unpack_loose_header(), we only retrieved types
from headers up to 32 bytes. In longer cases, we'd simply say
"object corrupt or missing".
2. This is the last caller that uses object_info's type_name strbuf
support. It would be nice to refactor it so that we can simplify
that code.
3. Likewise, we'll check the hash of the object using its unknown type
(again, as long as that type is short enough). That depends on the
hash_object_file_literally() code, which we'd eventually like to
get rid of.
So we can simplify things by bailing immediately in read_loose_object()
when we encounter an unknown type. This has a few user-visible effects:
a. Instead of producing a single line of error output like this:
error: 26ed13ce3564fbbb44e35bde42c7da717ea004a6: object is of unknown type 'bogus': .git/objects/26/ed13ce3564fbbb44e35bde42c7da717ea004a6
we'll now issue two lines (the first from read_loose_object() when
we see the unparsable header, and the second from the fsck code,
since we couldn't read the object):
error: unable to parse type from header 'bogus 4' of .git/objects/26/ed13ce3564fbbb44e35bde42c7da717ea004a6
error: 26ed13ce3564fbbb44e35bde42c7da717ea004a6: object corrupt or missing: .git/objects/26/ed13ce3564fbbb44e35bde42c7da717ea004a6
This is a little more verbose, but this sort of error should be
rare (such objects are almost impossible to work with, and cannot
be transferred between repositories as they are not representable
in packfiles). And as a bonus, reporting the broken header in full
could help with debugging other cases (e.g., a header like "blob
xyzzy\0" would fail in parsing the size, but previously we'd not
have showed the offending bytes).
b. An object with an unknown type will be reported as corrupt, without
actually doing a hash check. Again, I think this is unlikely to
matter in practice since such objects are totally unusable.
We'll update one fsck test to match the new error strings. And we can
remove another test that covered the case of an object with an unknown
type _and_ a hash corruption. Since we'll skip the hash check now in
this case, the test is no longer interesting.

Since cat-file dropped its "--allow-unknown-type" option in the previous
commit, there are no more uses of the internal flag that implemented it.
Let's drop it.
That in turn lets us drop the strbuf parameter of unpack_loose_header(),
which now is always NULL. And without that, we can drop all of the
additional code to inflate larger headers into the strbuf.
Arguably we could drop ULHR_TOO_LONG, as no callers really care about
the distinction from ULHR_BAD. But it's easy enough to retain, and it
does let us produce a slightly more specific message in one instance.

The function `loose_object_path()` is a trivial wrapper around
`odb_loose_path()`, with the only exception that it always uses the
primary object database of the given repository. This doesn't really add
a ton of value though, so let's drop the function and inline it at every
callsite.

The "object-store-ll.h" header has been introduced to keep transitive
header dependendcies and compile times at bay. Now that we have created
a new "object-store.c" file though we can easily move the last remaining
additional bit of "object-store.h", the `odb_path_map`, out of the
header.
Do so. As the "object-store.h" header is now equivalent to its low-level
alternative we drop the latter and inline it into the former.

The `index_blob_stream()` function is a mere wrapper around
`index_blob_bulk_checkin()`. This has been the case since 568508e765
(bulk-checkin: replace fast-import based implementation, 2011-10-28),
which has moved the implementation from `index_blob_stream()` (which was
still called `index_stream()`) into `index_bulk_checkin()` (which has
since been renamed to `index_blob_bulk_checkin()`).
Remove the redirection by dropping the wrapper. Move the comment to
`index_blob_bulk_checkin()` to retain its context.
