I.e. it's the hn/reftable probably interacting with my ab/refs-files-cleanup.

Outstanding comments from me: * Core design / complexity concerns: https://lore.kernel.org/git/87fswey5wd.fsf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ * Re-adding needless complexity I fixed in the base topic: https://lore.kernel.org/git/87r1fyy728.fsf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ * Maybe a bug in the base topic? https://lore.kernel.org/git/87tukuy7vc.fsf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ At least it needs a test in es/config-based-hooks. I don't see how it's an issue without es/config-based-hooks, i.e. the sendemail-validate is always in-repo, except maybe with core.hooksPath? There's also some other trivial suggestions of squashes, code style etc. in that thread from me, but that's the main gist of the outstanding comments for now. > * ab/refs-files-cleanup (2021-07-20) 12 commits > - refs/files: remove unused "errno != ENOTDIR" condition > - refs/files: remove unused "errno == EISDIR" code > - refs/files: remove unused "oid" in lock_ref_oid_basic() > - reflog expire: don't lock reflogs using previously seen OID > - refs/files: add a comment about refs_reflog_exists() call > - refs: make repo_dwim_log() accept a NULL oid > - refs API: pass the "lock OID" to reflog "prepare" > - refs/debug: re-indent argument list for "prepare" > - refs/files: remove unused "skip" in lock_raw_ref() too > - refs/files: remove unused "extras/skip" in lock_ref_oid_basic() > - refs/files: remove unused REF_DELETING in lock_ref_oid_basic() > - refs/packet: add missing BUG() invocations to reflog callbacks > (this branch is used by hn/refs-errno-cleanup.) > > Patches are mostly good, but needs typofixes etc. > > Will merge to 'next'.

I submitted these as: https://lore.kernel.org/git/cover-0.3-0000000000-20210629T190137Z-avarab@xxxxxxxxx/ https://lore.kernel.org/git/cover-0.3-0000000000-20210629T183325Z-avarab@xxxxxxxxx/ I think they're rock-solid & ready to move ahead. I'm not so sure about the rest of ab/config-based-hooks-base, with 33 commits there + another 9 in es/config-based-hooks I think anything to reduce the size will help reviewers. > Restructuring of (a subset of) Emily's config-based-hooks series, > to demonstrate that a series can be presented as a more logical and > focused progression. > > Waiting for reviews. The one thing I have for it locally is that the commit messages still say "use config", but we don't use config yet (just an artifact of the patch origin before rebasing/rewriting). I was hoping to convince you to do the above suggested split-up before re-rolls, and of course any comments from Emily etc. > * ab/serve-cleanup (2021-06-28) 8 commits > - upload-pack.c: convert to new serve.c "startup" config cb > - serve: add support for a "startup" git_config() callback > - serve.c: add trace2 regions for advertise & command > - serve.c: add call_{advertise,command}() indirection > - serve: use designated initializers > - transport: use designated initializers > - transport: rename "fetch" in transport_vtable to "fetch_refs" > - serve: mark has_capability() as static > > Code clean-up around "git serve". > > Expecting a reroll. > cf. <cover-0.8-00000000000-20210628T191634Z-avarab@xxxxxxxxx> > cf. <87tul24iw2.fsf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Re-rolled at https://lore.kernel.org/git/cover-00.12-00000000000-20210721T233307Z-avarab@xxxxxxxxx/ A bit of an undirected "let's fix various stuff" at this point, but fixing up the semantics of a widely-used API is probably inevitably going to be like that. I do have meaningful patches on top that I'm waiting to submit, which hopefully will make the whole picture make more sense, but I think this cleanup is worth it. It's really a reduction in "real" code size, but the added tests & conversion to designated initializers is deceptive. > * hn/refs-errno-cleanup (2021-07-20) 7 commits > - refs: make errno output explicit for refs_resolve_ref_unsafe > - refs: explicitly return failure_errno from parse_loose_ref_contents > - refs: add failure_errno to refs_read_raw_ref() signature > - refs: make errno output explicit for read_raw_ref_fn > - refs/files-backend: stop setting errno from lock_ref_oid_basic > - refs: remove EINVAL errno output from specification of read_raw_ref_fn > - refs file backend: move raceproof_create_file() here > (this branch uses ab/refs-files-cleanup.) > > Futz with the way 'errno' is relied on in the refs API to carry the > failure modes up the callchain. > > Will merge to 'next'. Sweet. After this & the going-to-next ab/refs-files-cleanup I had (as noted) some more (but rather trivial) loose ends cleanups to submit on top. > * ab/test-tool-cache-cleanup (2021-06-08) 4 commits > - read-cache perf: add a perf test for refresh_index() > - test-tool: migrate read-cache-again to parse_options() > - test-tool: migrate read-cache-perf to parse_options() > - test-tool: split up test-tool read-cache > > Test code shuffling. > > Waiting for reviews. Emily: Poke @ https://lore.kernel.org/git/87pmw3dlkl.fsf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ I'd think in the absence of an update from Emily (in general I've got a few things bottlenecked in that area...), this rather trivial cleanup is hopefully easily understood enough to move ahead. > * ab/pack-objects-stdin (2021-07-09) 5 commits > - pack-objects.c: make use of REV_INFO_STDIN_LINE_PROCESS > - pack-objects.c: do stdin parsing via revision.c's API > - revision.[ch]: add a "handle_stdin_line" API > - revision.h: refactor "disable_stdin" and "read_from_stdin" > - upload-pack: run is_repository_shallow() before setup_revisions() > > Introduce handle_stdin_line callback to revision API and uses it. Would love to have a status update on this one / have it merged down, as noted in https://lore.kernel.org/git/cover-0.5-00000000000-20210709T105850Z-avarab@xxxxxxxxx/ I've got more interesting work waiting on it. > * ab/update-submitting-patches (2021-06-08) 3 commits > - SubmittingPatches: remove pine-specific hints from MUA hints > - SubmittingPatches: replace discussion of Travis with GitHub Actions > - SubmittingPatches: move discussion of Signed-off-by above "send" > > Reorganize and update the SubmitingPatches document. > > Expecting a reroll. > cf. <20210607172542.GA6312@xxxxxxxxxx> > cf. <nycvar.QRO.7.76.6.2106072346560.55@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> I'll get to this one today, for real this time... > * ab/send-email-optim (2021-05-28) 13 commits > (merged to 'next' on 2021-07-08 at 35ac315894) > + perl: nano-optimize by replacing Cwd::cwd() with Cwd::getcwd() > + send-email: move trivial config handling to Perl > + perl: lazily load some common Git.pm setup code > + send-email: lazily load modules for a big speedup > + send-email: get rid of indirect object syntax > + send-email: use function syntax instead of barewords > + send-email: lazily shell out to "git var" > + send-email: lazily load config for a big speedup > + send-email: copy "config_regxp" into git-send-email.perl > + send-email: refactor sendemail.smtpencryption config parsing > + send-email: remove non-working support for "sendemail.smtpssl" > + send-email tests: test for boolean variables without a value > + send-email tests: support GIT_TEST_PERL_FATAL_WARNINGS=true > > "git send-email" optimization. > > Will merge to 'master'.

Yeah, this has been hanging for a while, so here's a request for reviewers I guess. It's at https://lore.kernel.org/git/cover-00.21-00000000000-20210710T133203Z-avarab@xxxxxxxxx/ I have a bunch of disconnected updates to the object APIs in various areas that I need to re-roll. In isolation they're fixing rather obscure issues, but I think the end result yields much better APIs (i.e. structured error return, don't just die()). At the end of that we can do some real simplification of upstream consumers, e.g. the whole --allow-unknown-type handling, --literally etc. So if that end-goal sounds good to anyone please take a look at this topic, thanks!
