[RFC,2/2] exclude-promisor-objects: declare when option is allowed

The --exclude-promisor-objects option causes some funny behavior in at
least two commands: log and blame. It causes a BUG crash:

	$ git log --exclude-promisor-objects
	BUG: revision.c:2143: exclude_promisor_objects can only be used
	when fetch_if_missing is 0
	Aborted
	[134]

Fix this such that the option is treated like any other unknown option.
The commands that must support it are limited, so declare in those
commands that the flag is supported. In particular:

	pack-objects
	prune
	rev-list

The commands were found by searching for logic which parses
--exclude-promisor-objects outside of revision.c. Extra logic outside of
revision.c is needed because fetch_if_missing must be turned on before
revision.c sees the option or it will BUG-crash. The above list is
supported by the fact that no other command is introspectively invoked
by another command passing --exclude-promisor-object.

OK.  We used to be hitting BUG() which is an abort() in disguise, so
must-fail would have caught it without the fix in this patch.  Now
we would see a more controlled failure.

    ... goes and makes sure that is the case ...

Not really.  We were already doing a controlled failure via die(),
so these two tests would not have caught the problem in the code
before the fix in this patch.

But nevertheless this is a good change; I do not think it is worth
grepping for "unrecognized option" to differentiate the two cases.

Thanks.

BUG is apparently considered a "wrong" failure and not a controlled one
by test_must_fail. I just double-checked that the tests fail without
this patch.

not ok 119 - --exclude-promisor-objects does not BUG-crash

Ah, I was testing a wrong codepath.  Yes, it does call BUG("..."),
which is a prettier-looking abort(), but I somehow thought it was
doing die("BUG: ...").

In any case, thanks for the fix.

I think this line is in the wrong place. The very first thing
repo_init_revisions() will do is memset() the revs struct to all-zeroes,
so it cannot possibly be doing anything.

Normally it would need to go after init_revisions() but before
setup_revisions(), but we don't seem to call the latter at all in
builtin/prune.c. Which makes sense, because you cannot pass options to
influence the reachability traversal. So I don't think we need to care
about this flag at all here.

Speaking of which, would this flag work better as a field in
setup_revision_opt, which is passed to setup_revisions()? The intent
seem to be to influence how we parse command-line arguments, and that's
where other similar flags are (e.g., assume_dashdash).

Ah of course :)

Agreed, prune.c doesn't use setup_revisions() even transitively, so we 
don't care about this flag.

Good idea. This would solve the problem of mistakenly believing the flag 
matters when it doesn't, since it is in the struct which is used as the 
arguments of the exact function that cares about it. Here's a new patch 
- I'm tweaking e-mail client settings so hopefully this makes it to the 
list without mangling - if not I'll resend it with `git-send-email` later.

Subject: [PATCH] revisions.c: put promisor option in specialized struct

Put the allow_exclude_promisor_objects flag in setup_revision_opt. When
it was in rev_info, it was unclear when it was used, since rev_info is
passed to functions that don't use the flag. This resulted in
unnecessary setting of the flag in prune.c, so fix that as well.

Thanks, this looks pretty reasonable overall. Two comments:

I wonder if a static initializer for setup_revision_opt is worth it. It
would remove the need for this memset. Probably not a big deal either
way, though.

Why not pass in the whole setup_revision_opt struct? We don't need
anything else from it yet, but it seems like the point of that struct is
to pass around preferences like this.

I think you mean something like this:

static struct setup_revision_opt s_r_opt = {NULL, NULL, NULL, 0, 1, 0};

This is a bit cryptic (I have to read the struct declaration in order to 
know what is being set to 1) and if the struct ever gets a new field 
before allow_exclude_promisor_objects, this initializer has to be updated.

OK, the code reads better if I do that, so I agree.

I agree that's pretty awful.  I meant something like this:

  struct setup_revision_opt s_r_opt = { NULL };
  ...

  s_r_opt.allow_exclude_promisor_objects = 1;
  setup_revisions(...);

It's functionally equivalent to the memset(), but you don't have to
wonder about whether we peek at the uninitialized state in between.

That said, our C99 designated initializer weather-balloons haven't
gotten any complaints yet. So I think you could actually do:

  struct setup_revision_opt s_r_opt = {
	.allow_exclude_promisor_objects = 1,
  };
  ...
  setup_revisions(...);

which is pretty nice.

I like this way best, so I'll use it. Thank you.

Yup.  The output from 

    $ git grep -n ' \.[a-z0-9_]* =' -- \*.[ch]

with a bit of "git blame" tells us that cbc0f81d ("strbuf: use
designated initializers in STRBUF_INIT", 2017-07-10) is the balloon
for this exact feature.  The same for array was done in 512f41cf
("clean.c: use designated initializer", 2017-07-14)
