Allow a safer "rewind of the remote tip" push than blind "--force",
by requiring that the overwritten remote ref to be unchanged since
the new history to replace it was prepared.
The machinery is more or less ready. The "--force" option is again
the big red button to override any safety, thanks to J6t's sanity
(the original round allowed --lockref to defeat --force).
The logic to choose the default implemented here is fragile
(e.g. "git fetch" after seeing a failure will update the
remote-tracking branch and will make the next "push" pass,
defeating the safety pretty easily). It is suitable only for the
simplest workflows, and it may hurt users more than it helps them.

As of 7612a1efdb (2006-06-09 git-rm: honor -n flag.) the variable
'pathspec' seems to be assumed to be never NULL after calling get_pathspec
There was a NULL pointer check after the seen = NULL assignment, which
was removed by that commit. So if pathspec would be NULL now, we'd segfault
in the line accessing the pathspec:
for (i = 0; pathspec[i] ; i++)
A few lines later, 'pathspec' still cannot be NULL, but that check was
overlooked, hence removing it now.
As the null pointer check was removed, it makes no sense to assign NULL
to seen and 3 lines later another value as there are no conditions in
between.

Now that the OPT_CMDMODE is in place, we can also rely on that macro
instead of cooking that solution for each command itself.
This commit also replaces OPT_BOOLEAN, which was deprecated by b04ba2bb

The --no-create was parsed with OPT_BOOLEAN, which has a counting up
logic implemented. Since b04ba2bb (parse-options: deprecate OPT_BOOLEAN,
2011-09-27) the OPT_BOOLEAN is deprecated and is only a define:
/* Deprecated synonym */
#define OPTION_BOOLEAN OPTION_COUNTUP
However the variable not_new, which can be counted up by giving
--no-create multiple times, is used to set a bit in the struct checkout
bitfield (defined in cache.h:969, declared at builtin/checkout-index.c:19):
state.not_new = not_new;
When assigning a value other than 0 or 1 to a bit, all leading digits but
the last are ignored and only the last bit is used for setting the bit
variable.
Hence the following:
# in git.git:
$ git status
# working directory clean
rm COPYING
$ git status
# deleted: COPYING
$ git checkout-index -a -n
$ git status
# deleted: COPYING
# which is expected as we're telling git to not restore or create
# files, however:
$ git checkout-index -a -n -n
$ git status
# working directory clean, COPYING is restored again!
# That's the bug, we're fixing here.
By restraining the variable not_new to a value being definitely 0 or 1
by the macro OPT_BOOL the bug is fixed.

This task emerged from b04ba2bb (parse-options: deprecate OPT_BOOLEAN,
2011-09-27).
This commit introduces a change for the users, after this patch
you can pass one of the config level flags multiple times:
Before:
$ git config --global --global --list
error: only one config file at a time.
usage: ...
Afterwards this will work. This is due to the following check in the code:
if (use_global_config + use_system_config + use_local_config +
!!given_config_file + !!given_config_blob > 1) {
error("only one config file at a time.");
usage_with_options(builtin_config_usage, builtin_config_options);
}
With OPT_BOOL instead of OPT_BOOLEAN the variables use_global_config,
use_system_config, use_local_config will only have the value 0 if the
command line option was not passed or 1 no matter how often the
respective command line option was passed.

This task emerged from b04ba2bb (parse-options: deprecate OPT_BOOLEAN,
2011-09-27). hash-object is a plumbing layer command, so better
not change the input/output behavior for now.
Unfortunately we have these lines relying on the count up mechanism of
OPT_BOOLEAN:
if (hashstdin > 1)
errstr = "Multiple --stdin arguments are not supported";
Using OPT_BOOL will make "git hash-object --stdin --stdin" the same
as "git hash-object --stdin", resulting in just one object, which
will surprise users with an expectation to see two objects hashed.
Because it is not good to silently succeed and give an unexpected
result, even when the expectation is unrealistic, we use COUNTUP to
explicitly catch such an error.

As of b04ba2bb4 OPTION_BOOLEAN was deprecated.
This commit removes all occurrences of OPTION_BOOLEAN.
In b04ba2bb4 Junio suggested to replace it with either
OPTION_SET_INT or OPTION_COUNTUP instead. However a pattern, which
occurred often with the OPTION_BOOLEAN was a hidden boolean parameter.
So I defined OPT_HIDDEN_BOOL as an additional possible parse option
in parse-options.h to make life easy.
The OPT_HIDDEN_BOOL was used in checkout, clone, commit, show-ref.
The only exception, where there was need to fiddle with OPTION_SET_INT
was log and notes. However in these two files there is also a pattern,
so we could think of introducing OPT_NONEG_BOOL.

This reverts commit c334b87b30c1464a1ab563fe1fb8de5eaf0e5bac; the
update assumed that people only used the command to read from
"rev-list --objects" output, whose lines begin with a 40-hex object
name followed by a whitespace, but it turns out that scripts feed
random extended SHA-1 expressions (e.g. "HEAD:$pathname") in which
a whitespace has to be kept.
Now that close_one_pack() has been introduced to handle file
descriptor pressure, it is not strictly necessary to close the
pack file descriptor in unuse_one_window() when we're under memory
pressure.
Jeff King provided a justification for leaving the pack file open:
If you close packfile descriptors, you can run into racy situations
where somebody else is repacking and deleting packs, and they go away
while you are trying to access them. If you keep a descriptor open,
you're fine; they last to the end of the process. If you don't, then
they disappear from under you.
For normal object access, this isn't that big a deal; we just rescan
the packs and retry. But if you are packing yourself (e.g., because
you are a pack-objects started by upload-pack for a clone or fetch),
it's much harder to recover (and we print some warnings).
Let's do so (or uh, not do so).

When we refuse to make an empty commit, we check whether we
are in a cherry-pick in order to give better advice on how
to proceed. We instruct the user to repeat the commit with
"--allow-empty" to force the commit, or to use "git reset"
to skip it and abort the cherry-pick.
In the case of a single cherry-pick, the distinction between
skipping and aborting is not important, as there is no more
work to be done afterwards. When we are using the sequencer
to cherry pick a series of commits, though, the instruction
is confusing: does it skip this commit, or does it abort the
rest of the cherry-pick?
It does skip, after which the user can continue the
cherry-pick. This is the right thing to be advising the user
to do, but let's make it more clear what will happen, both
by using the word "skip", and by mentioning that the rest of
the sequence can be continued via "cherry-pick --continue"
(whether we skip or take the commit).

This plugs the push_cas_option data collected by the command line
option parser to the transport system with a new function
apply_push_cas(), which is called after match_push_refs() has
already been called.
At this point, we know which remote we are talking to, and what
remote refs we are going to update, so we can fill in the details
that may have been missing from the command line, such as
(1) what abbreviated refname the user gave us matches the actual
refname at the remote; and
(2) which remote-tracking branch in our local repository to read
the value of the object to expect at the remote.
to populate the old_sha1_expect[] field of each of the remote ref.
As stated in the documentation, the use of remote-tracking branch
as the default is a tentative one, and we may come up with a better
logic as we gain experience.
Still nobody uses this information, which is the topic of the next
patch.

Update "git push" and "git send-pack" to parse this commnd line
option.
The intended sematics is:
* "--force-with-lease" alone, without specifying the details, will
protect _all_ remote refs that are going to be updated by
requiring their current value to be the same as some reasonable
default, unless otherwise specified;
* "--force-with-lease=refname", without specifying the expected
value, will protect that refname, if it is going to be updated,
by requiring its current value to be the same as some reasonable
default.
* "--force-with-lease=refname:value" will protect that refname, if
it is going to be updated, by requiring its current value to be
the same as the specified value; and
* "--no-force-with-lease" will cancel all the previous --force-with-lease on the
command line.
For now, "some reasonable default" is tentatively defined as "the
value of the remote-tracking branch we have for the ref of the
remote being updated", and it is an error if we do not have such a
remote-tracking branch. But this is known to be fragile, its use is
not yet recommended, and hopefully we will find more reasonable
default as we gain experience with this feature. The manual marks
the feature as experimental unless the expected value is specified
explicitly for this reason.
Because the command line options are parsed _before_ we know which
remote we are pushing to, there needs further processing to the
parsed data after we instantiate the transport object to:
* expand "refname" given by the user to a full refname to be
matched with the list of "struct ref" used in match_push_refs()
and set_ref_status_for_push(); and
* learning the actual local ref that is the remote-tracking branch
for the specified remote ref.
Further, some processing need to be deferred until we find the set
of remote refs and match_push_refs() returns in order to find the
ones that need to be checked after explicit ones have been processed
for "--force-with-lease" (no specific details).
These post-processing will be the topic of the next patch.
This option was originally called "cas" (for "compare and swap"),
the name which nobody liked because it was too technical. The
second attempt called it "lockref" (because it is conceptually like
pushing after taking a lock) but the word "lock" was hated because
it implied that it may reject push by others, which is not the way
this option works. This round calls it "force-with-lease". You
assume you took the lease on the ref when you fetched to decide what
the rebased history should be, and you can push back only if the
lease has not been broken.
