Summary: Ref T12296. Ref T12392. Currently, when we're observing a remote repository, we periodically run `git fetch ...`. Instead, periodically run `git ls-remote` (to list refs in the remote) and `git for-each-ref` (to list local refs) and only continue if the two lists are different. The motivations for this are: - In T12296, it appears that doing this is //faster// than doing a no-op `git fetch`. This effect seems to reproduce locally in a clean environment (900ms for `ls-remote` + 100ms for `for-each-ref` vs about 1.4s for `fetch`). I don't have any explanation for why this is, but there it is. This isn't a huge change, although the time we're saving does appear to mostly be local CPU time, which is good for us. - Because we control all writes, we could cache `git for-each-ref` in the future and do fewer disk operations. This doesn't necessarily seem too valuable, though. - This allows us to tell if a fetch will do anything or not, and make better decisions around clustering (in particular, simplify how observed repository versioning works). With `git fetch`, we can't easily distinguish between "fetch, but nothing changed" and "legitimate fetch". If a repository updates very regularly we end up doing slightly more work this way (that is, if `ls-remote` always comes back with changes, we do a little extra work), but this is normally very rare. This might not get non-bare repositories quite right in some cases (i.e., incorrectly detect them as changed when they are unchanged) but we haven't created non-bare repositories for many years. Test Plan: Ran `bin/repository update --trace --verbose PHABX`, saw sensible construction of local and remote maps and accurate detection of whether a fetch would do anything or not.
