fsck: move typename() printing to its own function
When an object has a problem, we mention its type. But we do
so by feeding the result of typename() directly to
fprintf(). This is potentially dangerous because typename()
can return NULL for some type values (like OBJ_NONE).
It's doubtful that this can be triggered in practice with
the current code, so this is probably not fixing a bug. But
it future-proofs us against modifications that make things
like OBJ_NONE more likely (and gives future patches a
central point to handle them).

t1450: use "mv -f" within loose object directory
The loose objects are created with mode 0444. That doesn't
prevent them being overwritten by rename(), but some
versions of "mv" will be extra careful and prompt the user,
even without "-i".
Reportedly macOS does this, at least in the Travis builds.
The prompt reads from /dev/null, defaulting to "no", and the
object isn't moved. Then to make matters even more
interesting, it still returns "0" and the rest of the test
proceeds, but with a broken setup.
We can work around it by using "mv -f" to override the
prompt. This should work as it's already used in t5504 for

fsck: check HAS_OBJ more consistently
There are two spots that call lookup_object() and assume
that a non-NULL result means we have the object:
1. When we're checking the objects given to us by the user
on the command line.
2. When we're checking if a reflog entry is valid.
This generally follows fsck's mental model that we will have
looked at and loaded a "struct object" for each object in
the repository. But it misses one case: if another object
_mentioned_ an object, but we didn't actually parse it or
verify that it exists, it will still have a struct.
It's not clear if this is a triggerable bug or not.
Certainly the later parts of the reachability check need to
be careful of this, and do so by checking the HAS_OBJ flag.
But both of these steps happen before we start traversing,
so probably we won't have followed any links yet. Still,
it's easy enough to be defensive here.

fsck: prepare dummy objects for --connectivity-check
Normally fsck makes a pass over all objects to check their
integrity, and then follows up with a reachability check to
make sure we have all of the referenced objects (and to know
which ones are dangling). The latter checks for the HAS_OBJ
flag in obj->flags to see if we found the object in the
first pass.
Commit 02976bf85 (fsck: introduce `git fsck --connectivity-only`,
2015-06-22) taught fsck to skip the initial pass, and to
fallback to has_sha1_file() instead of the HAS_OBJ check.
However, it converted only one HAS_OBJ check to use
has_sha1_file(). But there are many other places in
builtin/fsck.c that assume that the flag is set (or that
lookup_object() will return an object at all). This leads to
several bugs with --connectivity-only:
1. mark_object() will not queue objects for examination,
so recursively following links from commits to trees,
etc, did nothing. I.e., we were checking the
reachability of hardly anything at all.
2. When a set of heads is given on the command-line, we
use lookup_object() to see if they exist. But without
the initial pass, we assume nothing exists.
3. When loading reflog entries, we do a similar
lookup_object() check, and complain that the reflog is
broken if the object doesn't exist in our hash.
So in short, --connectivity-only is broken pretty badly, and
will claim that your repository is fine when it's not.
Presumably nobody noticed for a few reasons.
One is that the embedded test does not actually test the
recursive nature of the reachability check. All of the
missing objects are still in the index, and we directly
check items from the index. This patch modifies the test to
delete the index, which shows off breakage (1).
Another is that --connectivity-only just skips the initial
pass for loose objects. So on a real repository, the packed
objects were still checked correctly. But on the flipside,
it means that "git fsck --connectivity-only" still checks
the sha1 of all of the packed objects, nullifying its
original purpose of being a faster git-fsck.
And of course the final problem is that the bug only shows
up when there _is_ corruption, which is rare. So anybody
running "git fsck --connectivity-only" proactively would
assume it was being thorough, when it was not.
One possibility for fixing this is to find all of the spots
that rely on HAS_OBJ and tweak them for the connectivity-only
case. But besides the risk that we might miss a spot (and I
found three already, corresponding to the three bugs above),
there are other parts of fsck that _can't_ work without a
full list of objects. E.g., the list of dangling objects.
Instead, let's make the connectivity-only case look more
like the normal case. Rather than skip the initial pass
completely, we'll do an abbreviated one that sets up the
HAS_OBJ flag for each object, without actually loading the
object data.
That's simple and fast, and we don't have to care about the
connectivity_only flag in the rest of the code at all.
While we're at it, let's make sure we treat loose and packed
objects the same (i.e., setting up dummy objects for both
and skipping the actual sha1 check). That makes the
connectivity-only check actually fast on a real repo (40
seconds versus 180 seconds on my copy of linux.git).

any objects we've seen mentioned, and reports unreachable

Since 6e454b9a3 (clear parsed flag when we free tree

correct method is to check the HAS_OBJ flag. The cleanup in

This test creates a multi-level set of trees, but its

A later test ("cleaned up") verifies that we've removed any
cruft and "git fsck" output is clean. This passes only
because of a bug in git-fsck which fails to notice dangling
trees.
In preparation for fixing the bug, let's teach this earlier
test to clean up after itself correctly. We have to remove
the inner tree (and therefore the blob, too, which becomes
dangling after removing that tree).
Since the setup code happens inside a subshell, we can't

common-main: stop munging argv[0] path
Since 650c44925 (common-main: call git_extract_argv0_path(),
2016-07-01), the argv[0] that is seen in cmd_main() of
individual programs is always the basename of the
executable, as common-main strips off the full path. This
can produce confusing results for git-daemon, which wants to
re-exec itself.
For instance, if the program was originally run as
"/usr/lib/git/git-daemon", it will try just re-execing
"git-daemon", which will find the first instance in $PATH.
If git's exec-path has not been prepended to $PATH, we may
find the git-daemon from a different version (or no
git-daemon at all).
Normally this isn't a problem. Git commands are run as "git
daemon", the git wrapper puts the exec-path at the front of
$PATH, and argv[0] is already "daemon" anyway. But running
git-daemon via its full exec-path, while not really a
recommended method, did work prior to 650c44925. Let's make
it work again.
The real goal of 650c44925 was not to munge argv[0], but to
reliably set the argv0_path global. The only reason it
munges at all is that one caller, the git.c wrapper,
piggy-backed on that computation to find the command
basename. Instead, let's leave argv[0] untouched in
common-main, and have git.c do its own basename computation.
While we're at it, let's drop the return value from
git_extract_argv0_path(). It was only ever used in this one
callsite, and its dual purposes is what led to this
confusion in the first place.
Note that by changing the interface, the compiler can
confirm for us that there are no other callers storing the
return value. But the compiler can't tell us whether any of
the cmd_main() functions (besides git.c) were relying on the
basename munging. However, we can observe that prior to 650c44925, no other cmd_main() functions did that munging,
and no new cmd_main() functions have been introduced since
then. So we can't be regressing any of those cases.

which just resolves HEAD itself. The parameter to
create_branch is now unused.
Since we have to update and re-wrap the docstring describing
the parameters anyway, let's take this opportunity to break
it out into a list, which makes it easier to find the
parameters.

sequencer.c:632:14: warning: comparison of constant 2 with
expression of type 'const enum todo_command' is always
true [-Wtautological-constant-out-of-range-compare]
if (command < ARRAY_SIZE(todo_command_strings))
This is because "command" is an enum that may only have two
values (0 and 1) and the array in question has two elements.
As it turns out, clang is actually wrong here, at least
according to its own bug tracker:
https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=16154
But it's still worth working around this, as the warning is
present with -Wall, meaning we fail compilation with "make
DEVELOPER=1".
Casting the enum to size_t sufficiently unconfuses clang. As
a bonus, it also catches any possible out-of-bounds access
if the enum takes on a negative value (which shouldn't
happen either, but again, this is a defensive check).

alternates: re-allow relative paths from environment
Commit 670c359da (link_alt_odb_entry: handle normalize_path
errors, 2016-10-03) regressed the handling of relative paths
in the GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_DIRECTORIES variable. It's not
entirely clear this was ever meant to work, but it _has_
worked for several years, so this commit restores the
original behavior.
When we get a path in GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_DIRECTORIES, we
add it the path to the list of alternate object directories
as if it were found in objects/info/alternates, but with one
difference: we do not provide the link_alt_odb_entry()
function with a base for relative paths. That function
doesn't turn it into an absolute path, and we end up feeding
the relative path to the strbuf_normalize_path() function.
Most relative paths break out of the top-level directory
(e.g., "../foo.git/objects"), and thus normalizing fails.
Prior to 670c359da, we simply ignored the error, and due to
the way normalize_path_copy() was implemented it happened to
return the original path in this case. We then accessed the
alternate objects using this relative path.
By storing the relative path in the alt_odb list, the path
is relative to wherever we happen to be at the time we do an
object lookup. That means we look from $GIT_DIR in a bare
repository, and from the top of the worktree in a non-bare
repository.
If this were being designed from scratch, it would make
sense to pick a stable location (probably $GIT_DIR, or even
the object directory) and use that as the relative base,
turning the result into an absolute path. However, given
the history, at this point the minimal fix is to match the
pre-670c359da behavior.
We can do this simply by ignoring the error when we have no
relative base and using the original value (which we now
reliably have, thanks to strbuf_normalize_path()).
That still leaves us with a relative path that foils our
duplicate detection, and may act strangely if we ever
chdir() later in the process. We could solve that by storing
an absolute path based on getcwd(). That may be a good
future direction; for now we'll do just the minimum to fix
the regression.
The new t5615 script demonstrates the fix in its final three
tests. Since we didn't have any tests of the alternates
environment variable at all, it also adds some tests of
absolute paths.
