The shell completion scripts in "contrib/completion" are being tested,
but none of our build systems support installing them. This is somewhat
confusing for Meson, where users can explicitly enable building these
scripts via `-Dcontrib=completion`. This option only controlls whether
the completions are built and tested against, where "building" is a bit
of an euphemism for "copying them into the build directory".
Teach both our Makefile and Meson to install our Bash completion script.
For now, this is the only completion script that we're installing given
that Bash completions "just work" with a canonical well-known location
nowadays. Other completion scripts, like for example the one for zsh,
don't have a well-known location and/or require extra steps by the user
to make them available. As such, we skip installing these scripts for
now, but we may do so in the future if we ever figure out a proper way
to do this.

Although sysinfo() is a 'Linux only' function, cygwin provides an

this function is Linux only is reflected in the way the HAVE_SYSINFO

Commit d19e3a5b21 ("Makefile: add NEEDS_LIBRT to optionally link with
librt", 2016-07-07) introduced the NEEDS_LIBRT build variable to
disassociate the HAVE_CLOCK_GETTIME variable with the unconditional
linking of the librt library. At one time, the clock_gettime() function
was not available as part of the libc library and (on some unix systems)
required linking with librt.
Commit 52fcec75ce ("config.mak.uname: define NEEDS_LIBRT under Linux, for
now", 2016-07-10) set the NEEDS_LIBRT variable in the Linux section of
the config.mak.uname file, since Debian 7 (wheezy) was one of the few
remaining distributions, with glibc 2.13, that required linking with
librt for clock_gettime(). Note that from glibc version 2.17, this is no
longer necessary.
Note that Debian 7.0 was released on May 4th, 2013 and benefited from
long term support until May 2018 when it went end-of-life. Since that
time, Linux distributions use a more up-to-date library, for example:
Distribution version end of support
Debian 8 2.19 30th June 2020
RHEL 8 2.28 31st May 2024 *
Ubuntu 16.04 2.23 30th Apr 2021
* paid 'Maintenance support' ends 31st May 2029
Since it is no longer required, remove NEEDS_LIBRT from the Makefile and

With at least glibc 2.39, glibc provides a function declaration that
matches with this POSIX interface:
int regexec(const regex_t *restrict preg, const char *restrict string,
size_t nmatch, regmatch_t pmatch[restrict], int eflags);
such prototype requires variable-length-array for `pmatch'.
Thus, sparse reports this error:
> ../add-patch.c: note: in included file (through ../git-compat-util.h):
> /usr/include/regex.h:682:41: error: undefined identifier '__nmatch'
> /usr/include/regex.h:682:41: error: bad constant expression type
> /usr/include/regex.h:682:41: error: Variable length array is used.
Note: `__nmatch' is POSIX's nmatch.
The glibc's intention is informing their users to provides a large
enough buffer to hold `__nmatch' results and provides diagnosis if
necessary. It's merely a glibc' implementation detail.
Hide that usage from sparse by using standard C11's macro:

As a wise man once told me, "Deleted code is debugged code!" So, move
the functions that are shared between merge-recursive and merge-ort from
the former to the latter, and then debug the remainder of
merge-recursive.[ch].
Joking aside, merge-ort was always intended to replace merge-recursive.
It has numerous advantages over merge-recursive (operates much faster,
can operate without a worktree or index, and fixes a number of known
bugs and suboptimal merges). Since we have now replaced all callers of
merge-recursive with equivalent functions from merge-ort, move the
shared functions from the former to the latter, and delete the remainder
of merge-recursive.[ch].

The `struct reftable_reader` subsystem encapsulates a table that has
been read from the disk. As such, the current name of that structure is
somewhat hard to understand as it only talks about the fact that we read
something from disk, without really giving an indicator _what_ that is.
Furthermore, this naming schema doesn't really fit well into how the
other structures are named: `reftable_merged_table`, `reftable_stack`,
`reftable_block` and `reftable_record` are all named after what they
encapsulate.
Rename the subsystem to `reftable_table`, which directly gives a hint
that the data structure is about handling the individual tables part of
the stack.
While this change results in a lot of churn, it prepares for us exposing
the APIs to third-party callers now that the reftable library is a
standalone library that can be linked against by other projects.

It is a big no-no to have side-effects in an assertion, because if the
assert() is compiled out, you don't get that side-effect, leading to the
code behaving differently. That can be a large headache to debug.
We have roughly 566 assert() calls in our codebase (my grep might have
picked up things that aren't actually assert() calls, but most appeared
to be). All but 9 of them can be determined by gcc to be free of side
effects with a clever redefine of assert() provided by Bruno De Fraine
(from
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10593492/catching-assert-with-side-effects),
who upon request has graciously placed his two-liner into the public
domain without warranty of any kind. The current 9 assert() calls
flagged by this clever redefinition of assert() appear to me to be free
of side effects as well, but are too complicated for a compiler/linker
to figure that since each assertion involves some kind of function call.
Add a CI job which will find and report these possibly problematic
assertions, and have the job suggest to the user that they replace these
with ASSERT() calls.
Example output from running:
```
ERROR: The compiler could not verify the following assert()
calls are free of side-effects. Please replace with
ASSERT() calls.

```
Note that if there are possibly problematic assertions, not necessarily
all of them will be shown in a single run, because the compiler errors
may include something like "ld: ... more undefined references to
`not_supposed_to_survive' follow" instead of listing each individually.
But in such cases, once you clean up a few that are shown in your first
run, subsequent runs will show (some of) the ones that remain, allowing
you to iteratively remove them all.

Our hope is that the number of code paths that falsely trigger
warnings with the -Wunreachable-code compilation option are small,
and they can be worked around case-by-case basis, like we just did
in the previous commit. If we need such a workaround a bit more
often, however, we may benefit from a more generic and descriptive
facility that helps document the cases we need such workarounds.
Side note: if we need the workaround all over the place, it
simply means -Wunreachable-code is not a good tool for us to
save engineering effort to catch mistakes. We are still
exploring if it helps us, so let's assume that it is not the
case.
Introduce NOT_CONSTANT() macro, with which, the developer can tell
the compiler:
Do not optimize this expression out, because, despite whatever
you are told by the system headers, this expression should *not*
be treated as a constant.
and use it as a replacement for the workaround we used that was
somewhat specific to the sigfillset case. If the compiler already
knows that the call to sigfillset() cannot fail on a particular
platform it is compiling for and declares that the if() condition
would not hold, it is plausible that the next version of the
compiler may learn that sigfillset() that never fails would not
touch errno and decide that in this sequence:
errno = 0;
sigfillset(&all)
if (errno)
die_errno("sigfillset");
the if() statement will never trigger. Marking that the value
returned by sigfillset() cannot be a constant would document our
intention better and would not break with such a new version of
compiler that is even more "clever". With the marco, the above
sequence can be rewritten:
if (NOT_CONSTANT(sigfillset(&all)))
die_errno("sigfillset");
which looks almost like other innocuous annotations we have,
e.g. UNUSED.

Through git-diff(1), a single diff can be generated from a pair of blob
revisions directly. Unfortunately, there is not a mechanism to compute
batches of specific file pair diffs in a single process. Such a feature
is particularly useful on the server-side where diffing between a large
set of changes is not feasible all at once due to timeout concerns.
To facilitate this, introduce git-diff-pairs(1) which acts as a backend
passing its NUL-terminated raw diff format input from stdin through diff
machinery to produce various forms of output such as patch or raw.
The raw format was originally designed as an interchange format and
represents the contents of the diff_queued_diff list making it possible
to break the diff pipeline into separate stages. For example,
git-diff-tree(1) can be used as a frontend to compute file pairs to
queue and feed its raw output to git-diff-pairs(1) to compute patches.
With this, batches of diffs can be progressively generated without
having to recompute renames or retrieve object context. Something like
the following:
git diff-tree -r -z -M $old $new |
git diff-pairs -p -z
should generate the same output as `git diff-tree -p -M`. Furthermore,
each line of raw diff formatted input can also be individually fed to a
separate git-diff-pairs(1) process and still produce the same output.

libgit-sys: introduce Rust wrapper for libgit.a
common-main: split init and exit code into new files
"git pack-objects" and its wrapper "git repack" learned an option
to use an alternative path-hash function to improve delta-base
selection to produce a packfile with deeper history than window
size.
* ds/name-hash-tweaks:
pack-objects: prevent name hash version change
test-tool: add helper for name-hash values
p5313: add size comparison test
pack-objects: add GIT_TEST_NAME_HASH_VERSION
repack: add --name-hash-version option
pack-objects: add --name-hash-version option
pack-objects: create new name-hash function version
Convert a handful of unit tests to work with the clar framework.
* sk/unit-tests-0130:
t/unit-tests: convert strcmp-offset test to use clar test framework
t/unit-tests: convert strbuf test to use clar test framework
t/unit-tests: adapt example decorate test to use clar test framework
t/unit-tests: convert hashmap test to use clar test framework
The code paths to interact with zlib has been cleaned up in
preparation for building with zlib-ng.
* ps/zlib-ng:
ci: make "linux-musl" job use zlib-ng
ci: switch linux-musl to use Meson
compat/zlib: allow use of zlib-ng as backend
git-zlib: cast away potential constness of `next_in` pointer
compat/zlib: provide stubs for `deflateSetHeader()`
compat/zlib: provide `deflateBound()` shim centrally
git-compat-util: move include of "compat/zlib.h" into "git-zlib.h"
compat: introduce new "zlib.h" header
git-compat-util: drop `z_const` define
compat: drop `uncompress2()` compatibility shim
In anticipation of implementing 'git backfill', populate the necessary files
with the boilerplate of a new builtin. Mark the builtin as experimental at
this time, allowing breaking changes in the near future, if necessary.

Following the procedure we established to introduce breaking
changes for Git 3.0, allow an early opt-in for removing support of
$GIT_DIR/branches/ and $GIT_DIR/remotes/ directories to configure
remotes.
* ps/3.0-remote-deprecation:
remote: announce removal of "branches/" and "remotes/"
builtin/pack-redundant: remove subcommand with breaking changes
ci: repurpose "linux-gcc" job for deprecations
ci: merge linux-gcc-default into linux-gcc
Makefile: wire up build option for deprecated features
