Commit Message

Taylor Blau May 14, 2024, 7:56 p.m. UTC
The pack-bitmap machinery uses a structure called 'bitmap_writer' to
collect the data necessary to write out .bitmap files. Since its
introduction in 7cc8f971085 (pack-objects: implement bitmap writing,
2013-12-21), there has been a single static bitmap_writer structure,
which is responsible for all bitmap writing-related operations.

In practice, this is OK, since we are only ever writing a single .bitmap
file in a single process (e.g., `git multi-pack-index write --bitmap`,
`git pack-objects --write-bitmap-index`, `git repack -b`, etc.).

However, having a single static variable makes issues like data
ownership unclear, when to free variables, what has/hasn't been
initialized unclear.

Refactor this code to be written in terms of a given bitmap_writer
structure instead of relying on a static global.

Note that this exposes the structure definition of the bitmap_writer at
the pack-bitmap.h level. We could work around this by, e.g., forcing
callers to declare their writers as:

    struct bitmap_writer *writer;
    bitmap_writer_init(&bitmap_writer);

and then declaring `bitmap_writer_init()` as taking in a double-pointer
like so:

    void bitmap_writer_init(struct bitmap_writer **writer);

which would avoid us having to expose the definition of the structure
itself. This patch takes a different approach, since future patches
(like for the ongoing pseudo-merge bitmaps work) will want to modify the
innards of this structure (in the previous example, via pseudo-merge.c).
