2013-09-04t5308: check that index-pack --strict detects duplicate objectsJeff King
Commit 68be2fea (receive-pack, fetch-pack: reject bogus pack that records objects twice, 2011-11-16) taught index-pack to notice and reject duplicate objects if --strict is given (which it is for incoming packs, if transfer.fsckObjects is set). However, it never tested the code, because we did not have an easy way of generating such a bogus pack. Now that we have test infrastructure to handle this, let's confirm that it works.

2013-08-25sha1-lookup: handle duplicate keys with GIT_USE_LOOKUPJeff King
The sha1_entry_pos function tries to be smart about selecting the middle of a range for its binary search by looking at the value differences between the "lo" and "hi" constraints. However, it is unable to cope with entries with duplicate keys in the sorted list. We may hit a point in the search where both our "lo" and "hi" point to the same key. In this case, the range of values between our endpoints is 0, and trying to scale the difference between our key and the endpoints over that range is undefined (i.e., divide by zero). The current code catches this with an "assert(lov < hiv)". Moreover, after seeing that the first 20 byte of the key are the same, we will try to establish a value from the 21st byte. Which is nonsensical. Instead, we can detect the case that we are in a run of duplicates, and simply do a final comparison against any one of them (since they are all the same, it does not matter which). If the keys match, we have found our entry (or one of them, anyway). If not, then we know that we do not need to look further, as we must be in a run of the duplicate key.
