Update clar to commit 39f11fe (Merge pull request #131 from
pks-gitlab/pks-integer-double-evaluation, 2025-12-05). This commit
includes the following changes relevant to Git:
- There are now typesafe integer comparison functions. Furthermore,
the range of comparison functions has been included to also have
relative comparisons, like "greater than".
- There is a new `cl_failf()` macro that allows the caller to specify
an error message with formatting directives.
- The TAP format has been fixed to correctly terminate YAML blocks
with "...\n" instead of "---\n".
Note that we already had a `cl_failf()` function declared in our own
sources. This function is equivalent to the upstreamed function, so we
can simply drop it now.

If you have a buffer that is not NUL-terminated but want to parse an
integer, there aren't many good options. If you use strtol() and
friends, you risk running off the end of the buffer if there is no
non-digit terminating character. And even if you carefully make sure
that there is such a character, ASan's strict-string-check mode will
still complain.
You can copy bytes into a temporary buffer, terminate it, and then call
strtol(), but doing so adds some pitfalls (like making sure you soak up
whitespace and leading +/- signs, and reporting overflow for overly long
input). Or you can hand-parse the digits, but then you need to take some
care to handle overflow (and again, whitespace and +/- signs).
These things aren't impossible to do right, but it's error-prone to have
to do them in every spot that wants to do such parsing. So let's add
some functions which can be used across the code base.
There are a few choices regarding the interface and the implementation.
First, the implementation:
- I went with with parsing the digits (rather than buffering and
passing to libc functions). It ends up being a similar amount of
code because we have to do some parsing either way. And likewise
overflow detection depends on the exact type the caller wants, so we
either have to do it by hand or write a separate wrapper for
strtol(), strtoumax(), and so on.
- Unsigned overflow detection is done using the same techniques as in
unsigned_add_overflows(), etc. We can't use those macros directly
because our core function is type-agnostic (so the caller passes in
the max value, rather than us deriving it on the fly). This is
similar to how git_parse_int(), etc, work.
- Signed overflow detection assumes that we can express a negative
value with magnitude one larger than our maximum positive value
(e.g., -128..127 for a signed 8-bit value). I doubt this is
guaranteed by the standard, but it should hold in practice, and we
make the same assumption in git_parse_int(), etc. The nice thing
about this is that we can derive the range from the number of bits
in the type. For ints, you obviously could use INT_MIN..INT_MAX, but
for an arbitrary type, we can use maximum_signed_value_of_type().
- I didn't bother with handling bases other than 10. It would
complicate the code, and I suspect it won't be needed. We could
probably retro-fit it later without too much work, if need be.
For the interface:
- What do we call it? We have git_parse_int() and friends, which aim
to make parsing less error-prone. And in some ways, these are just
buffer (rather than string) versions of those functions. But not
entirely. Those functions are aimed at parsing a single user-facing
value. So they accept a unit prefix (e.g., "10k"), which we won't
always want. And they insist that the whole string is consumed
(rather than passing back an "end" pointer).
We also have strtol_i() and strtoul_ui() wrappers, which try to make
error handling simpler (especially around overflow), but mostly
behave like their libc counterparts. These also don't pass out an
end pointer, though.
So I started a new namespace, "parse_<type>_from_buf".
- Like those other functions above, we use an out-parameter to store
the result, which lets us return an error code directly. This avoids
the complicated errno dance for detecting overflow that you get with
strtol().
What should the error code look like? git_parse_int() uses a bool
for success/failure. But strtol_ui() uses the syscall-like "0 is
success, -1 is error" convention.
I went with the bool approach here. Since the names are closest to
those functions, I thought it would cause the least confusion.
- Unlike git_parse_signed() and friends, we do not insist that the
entire buffer be consumed. For parsing a specific standalone string
that makes sense, but within an unterminated buffer you are much
more likely to be parsing multiple fields from a larger data set.
We pass out an "end" pointer the same way strtol() does. Another
option is to accept the input as an in-out parameter and advance the
pointer ourselves (and likewise shrink the length pointer). That
would let you do something like:
if (!parse_int_from_buf(&p, &len, &out))
return error(...);
/* "p" and "len" were adjusted automatically */
if (!len || *p++ != ' ')
return error(...);
That saves a few lines of code in some spots, but requires a few
more in others (depending on whether the caller has a length in the
first place or is using an end pointer). Of the two callers I intend
to immediately convert, we have one of each type!
I went with the strtol() approach as flexible and time-tested.
- We could likewise take the input buffer as two pointers (start and
end) rather than a pointer and a length. That again makes life
easier for some callers and harder for others. I stuck with pointer
and length as the more usual interface.
- What happens when a caller passes in a NULL end pointer? This is
allowed by strtol(). But I think it's often a sign of a lurking bug,
because there's no way to know how much was consumed (and even if a
caller wants to assume everything is consumed, you have no way to
verify it). So it is simply an error in this interface (you'd get a
segfault).
I am tempted to say that if the end pointer is NULL the functions
could confirm that the entire buffer was consumed, as a convenience.
But that felt a bit magical and surprising.
Like git_parse_*(), there is a generic signed/unsigned helper, and then
we can add type-specific helpers on top. I've added an int helper here
to start, and we'll add more as we convert callers.

"Windows+meson" job at the GitHub Actions CI was hard to debug, as
it did not show and save failed test artifacts, which has been
corrected.
* jk/ci-windows-meson-test-fix:
ci(windows-meson-test): handle options and output like other test jobs

mixed up byte count and display column width, which has been

t/unit-tests: add UTF-8 width tests for CJK chars
In the same spirit as 9faf3963b6 (t: introduce compatibility options to
clar-based tests, 2024-12-13), we should ignore --no-chain-lint passed
to our clar tests, since it may appear in GIT_TEST_OPTS to be used with
other tests.
This is particularly important on Windows CI, where --no-chain-lint is
added to the test options by default, and the meson build will pass all
options to the unit tests. The only reason our meson Windows CI job does
not run into this currently is that it is not respecting GIT_TEST_OPTS
at all! So ignoring this option is a prerequisite to fixing that
situation.

The output table from "git repo structure" is misaligned when displaying
UTF-8 characters (e.g., non-ASCII glyphs). E.g.:
| 仓库结构 | 值 |
| -------------- | ---- |
| * 引用 | |
| * 计数 | 67 |
The previous implementation used simple width formatting with printf()
which didn't properly handle multi-byte UTF-8 characters, causing
misaligned table columns when displaying repository structure
information.
This change modifies the stats_table_print_structure function to use
strbuf_utf8_align() instead of basic printf width specifiers. This
ensures proper column alignment regardless of the character encoding of
the content being displayed.
Also add test cases for strbuf_utf8_align(), a function newly introduced
in "builtin/repo.c".

The reftable backend performs auto-compaction as part of its regular
flow, which is required to keep the number of tables part of a stack at
bay. This allows it to stay optimized.
Compaction can also be triggered voluntarily by the user via the 'git
pack-refs' or the 'git refs optimize' command. However, currently there
is no way for the user to check if optimization is required without
actually performing it.
Extract out the heuristics logic from 'reftable_stack_auto_compact()'
into an internal function 'update_segment_if_compaction_required()'.
Then use this to add and expose `reftable_stack_compaction_required()`
which will allow users to check if the reftable backend can be
optimized.

In the reftable format, the 'tables.list' file contains a
newline separated list of tables. While we parse this file, we do not
check or care about the last newline. Tighten the parser in
`parse_names()` to return an appropriate error if the last newline is
missing.
This requires modification to `parse_names()` to now return the error
while accepting the output as a third argument.

Update clar to fcbed04 (Merge pull request #123 from
pks-gitlab/pks-sandbox-ubsan, 2025-09-10). The most significant changes
since the last version include:
- Fixed platform support for HP-UX.
- Fixes for how clar handles the `-q` flag.
- A couple of leak fixes for reported clar errors.
- A new `cl_invoke()` function that retains line information.
- New infrastructure to create temporary directories.
- Improved printing of error messages so that all lines are now
properly indented.
- Proper selftests for the clar.
Most of these changes are somewhat irrelevant to us, but neither do we
have to adjust to any of these changes, either. What _is_ interesting to
us though is especially the fixed support for HP-UX, and eventually we
may also want to use `cl_invoke()`.

The `reftable_stack_add()` function is a simple wrapper to lock the
stack, add records to it via a callback and then commit the
result. One problem with it though is that it doesn't accept any flags
for creating the addition. This makes it impossible to automatically
reload the stack in case it was modified before we managed to lock the
stack.
Add a `flags` field to plug this gap and pass it through accordingly.
For now this new flag won't be used by us, but it will be used by
libgit2.

The within_depth() function is used to check whether pathspecs limited
by a max-depth parameter are acceptable. It takes a path to check, a
maximum depth, and a "base" depth. It counts the components in the
path (by counting slashes), adds them to the base, and compares them to
the maximum.
However, if the base does not have any slashes at all, we always return
`true`. If the base depth is 0, then this is correct; no matter what the
maximum is, we are always within it. However, if the base depth is
greater than 0, then we might return an erroneous result.
This ends up not causing any user-visible bugs in the current code. The
call sites in dir.c always pass a base depth of 0, so are unaffected.
But tree_entry_interesting() uses this function differently: it will
pass the prefix of the current entry, along with a `1` if the entry is a
directory, in essence checking whether items inside the entry would be
of interest. It turns out not to make a difference in behavior, but the
reasoning is complex.
Given a tree like:
file
a/file
a/b/file
walking the tree and calling tree_entry_interesting() will yield the
following results:
(with max_depth=0):
file: yes
a: yes
a/file: no
a/b: no
(with max_depth=1):
file: yes
a: yes
a/file: yes
a/b: no
So we have inconsistent behavior in considering directories interesting.
If they are at the edge of our depth but at the root, we will recurse
into them, but then find all of their entries uninteresting (e.g., in
the first case, we will look at "a" but find "a/*" uninteresting). But
if they are at the edge of our depth and not at the root, then we will
not recurse (in the second example, we do not even bother entering
"a/b").
This turns out not to matter because the only caller which uses
max-depth pathspecs is cmd_grep(), which only cares about blob entries.
From its perspective, it is exactly the same to not recurse into a
subtree, or to recurse and find that it contains no matching entries.
Not recursing is merely an optimization.
It is debatable whether tree_entry_interesting() should consider such an
entry interesting. The only caller does not care if it sees the tree
itself, and can benefit from the optimization. But if we add a
"max-depth" limiter to regular diffs, then a diff with
DIFF_OPT_TREE_IN_RECURSIVE would probably want to show the tree itself,
but not what it contains.
This patch just fixes within_depth(), which means we consider such
entries uninteresting (and makes the current caller happy). If we want
to change that in the future, then this fix is still the correct first
step, as the current behavior is simply inconsistent.
This has the effect the function tree_entry_interesting() now behaves
like following on the first example:
(with max_depth=0):
file: yes
a: no
a/file: no
a/b: no
Meaning we won't step in "a/" no more to realize all "a/*" entries are
uninterested, but we stop at the tree entry itself.

The "clar-decls.h" header gets generated by us to extract prototypes of

then written into "t/unit-tests/" and included via "unit-test.h". The
intent of all this is that we can keep "-Wmissing-prototype" warnings
enabled. If we had that warning disabled, it would be easy to miss in
case any of the non-static functions had a typo in its name and thus
wasn't picked up by our test case extractor.
Including the file directly has a big downside though: if a source tree
was built both with our Makefile and with Meson, then the Meson build
would include the "clar-decls.h" file from our Makefile. And if those
are out of sync we get compiler errors.
We already fixed a similar issue in 4771501c0a (meson: ensure correct
version-def.h is used, 2025-01-14). Let's do the same and pass the
absolute path to "clar-decls.h" via a preprocessor define.

Now that all test files using these helpers have been converted to Clar,

Clar- specific versions back to `lib-reftable.{c,h}`. This restores a
clean and consistent naming scheme for shared test utilities.
Finally, update our build system to reflect the changes made and remove
redundant code related to the reftable tests and our old homegrown
unit-testing setup. `test-lib.{c,h}` remains unchanged in our build
system as some files particularly `t/helper/test-example-tap.c` depends

called oidmap_clear(), per CodingGuidelines.

In fd888311fb (reftable/table: move reading block into block reader,
2025-04-07), we have refactored how reftable blocks are read so that
most of the logic is contained in the "block.c" subsystem itself. Most
importantly, the whole logic to read the data itself is now contained in
that subsystem.
This change caused a significant performance regression though when
reading blocks that aren't of the specific type one is searching for:
Benchmark 1: update-ref: create 100k refs (revision = fd888311fbc~)
Time (mean ± σ): 2.171 s ± 0.028 s [User: 1.189 s, System: 0.977 s]
Range (min … max): 2.117 s … 2.206 s 10 runs
Benchmark 2: update-ref: create 100k refs (revision = fd888311fb)
Time (mean ± σ): 3.418 s ± 0.030 s [User: 2.371 s, System: 1.037 s]
Range (min … max): 3.377 s … 3.473 s 10 runs
Summary
update-ref: create 100k refs (revision = fd888311fbc~) ran
1.57 ± 0.02 times faster than update-ref: create 100k refs (revision = fd888311fb)
The root caute of the performance regression is that we changed when
exactly blocks of an uninteresting type are being discarded. Previous to
the refactoring in the mentioned commit we'd load the block data, read
its type, notice that it's not the wanted type and discard the block.
After the commit though we don't discard the block immediately, but we
fully decode it only to realize that it's not the desired type. We then
discard the block again, but have already performed a bunch of pointless
work.
Fix the regression by making `reftable_block_init()` return early in
case the block is not of the desired type. This fixes the performance
hit:
Benchmark 1: update-ref: create 100k refs (revision = HEAD~)
Time (mean ± σ): 2.712 s ± 0.018 s [User: 1.990 s, System: 0.716 s]
Range (min … max): 2.682 s … 2.741 s 10 runs
Benchmark 2: update-ref: create 100k refs (revision = HEAD)
Time (mean ± σ): 1.670 s ± 0.012 s [User: 0.991 s, System: 0.676 s]
Range (min … max): 1.652 s … 1.693 s 10 runs
Summary
update-ref: create 100k refs (revision = HEAD) ran
1.62 ± 0.02 times faster than update-ref: create 100k refs (revision = HEAD~)
Note that the baseline performance is lower than in the original due to
a couple of unrelated performance improvements that have landed since
the original commit.
