When fetching refs from a remote, it is possible that the refspec will
cause use to overwrite a ref that is checked out in a worktree. The
existing logic in builtin/fetch.c uses a possibly-slow mechanism. Update
those sections to use the new, more efficient branch_checked_out()
helper.
These uses were not previously tested, so add a test case that can be
used for these kinds of collisions. There is only one test now, but more
tests will be added as other consumers of branch_checked_out() are
added.
Note that there are two uses in builtin/fetch.c, but only one of the
messages is tested. This is because the tested check is run before
completing the fetch, and the untested check is not reachable without
concurrent updates to the filesystem. Thus, it is beneficial to keep
that extra check for the sake of defense-in-depth. However, we should
not attempt to test the check, as the effort required is too
complicated to be worth the effort. This use in update_local_ref()
also requires a change in the error message because we no longer have
access to the worktree struct, only the path of the worktree. This error
is so rare that making a distinction between the two is not critical.

This check was introduced in 8ee5d73137 (Fix fetch/pull when run without

master:master.
It was later extended in 8bc1f39f41 (fetch: protect branches checked out
in all worktrees, 2021-12-01) to scan all worktrees.
This operation is very expensive (takes about 30s in my repository) when
there are many tags or branches, and it is executed on every fetch, even if
no local heads are updated at all.
Limit it to protect only refs/heads/* to improve fetch performance.

Since 4c28e4ada0 (commit: die before asking to edit the log
message, 2010-12-20), we have been "leaking" the "author_ident" when
prepare_to_commit() fails. Instead of returning from right there,
introduce an exit status variable and jump to the clean-up label
at the end.
Instead of explicitly releasing the resource with strbuf_release(),
mark the variable with UNLEAK() at the end, together with two other
variables that are already marked as such. If this were in a
utility function that is called number of times, but these are
different, we should explicitly release resources that grow
proportionally to the size of the problem being solved, but
cmd_commit() is like main() and there is no point in spending extra
cycles to release individual pieces of resource at the end, just
before process exit will clean everything for us for free anyway.
This fixes a leak demonstrated by e.g. "t3505-cherry-pick-empty.sh",
but unfortunately we cannot mark it or other affected tests as passing
now with "TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK=true" as we'll need to fix many
other memory leaks before doing so.
Incidentally there are two tests that always passes the leak checker
with or without this change. Mark them as such.

Fix a bug in "git pull" where `submodule.recurse` is preferred over
`fetch.recurseSubmodules` when performing a fetch
(Documentation/config/fetch.txt says that `fetch.recurseSubmodules`
should be preferred.). Do this by passing the value of the
"--recurse-submodules" CLI option to the underlying fetch, instead of
passing a value that combines the CLI option and config variables.
In other words, this bug occurred because builtin/pull.c is conflating
two similar-sounding, but different concepts:
- Whether "git pull" itself should care about submodules e.g. whether it
should update the submodule worktrees after performing a merge.
- The value of "--recurse-submodules" to pass to the underlying "git
fetch".
Thus, when `submodule.recurse` is set, the underlying "git fetch" gets
invoked with "--recurse-submodules[=value]", overriding the value of
`fetch.recurseSubmodules`.
An alternative (and more obvious) approach to fix the bug would be to
teach "git pull" to understand `fetch.recurseSubmodules`, but the
proposed solution works better because:
- We don't maintain two identical config-parsing implementions in "git
pull" and "git fetch".
- It works better with other commands invoked by "git pull" e.g. "git
merge" won't accidentally respect `fetch.recurseSubmodules`.

Commit 73c6de06af ("bisect: don't use invalid oid as rev when
starting") changes the behaviour of `git bisect` to consider invalid
oids as pathspecs again, as in the old shell implementation.
While that behaviour may be desirable, it can also cause confusion. For
example, while bisecting in a particular repo I encountered this:
$ git bisect start d93ff48803f0 v6.3
$
...which led to me sitting for a few moments, wondering why there's no
printout stating the first rev to check.
It turns out that the tag was actually "6.3", not "v6.3", and thus the
bisect was still silently started with only a bad rev, because
d93ff48803f0 was a valid oid and "v6.3" was silently considered to be a
pathspec.
While this behaviour may be desirable, it can be confusing, especially
with different repo conventions either using or not using "v" before
release names, or when a branch name or tag is simply misspelled on the
command line.
In order to avoid situations like this, make it more clear what we're
waiting for:
$ git bisect start d93ff48803f0 v6.3
status: waiting for good commit(s), bad commit known
We already have good output once the bisect process has begun in
earnest, so we don't need to do anything more there.

Update 'stash' to use 'merge_ort_nonrecursive()' to apply a stash to the
current working tree. When 'git stash apply' was converted from its shell
script implementation to a builtin in 8a0fc8d19d (stash: convert apply to
builtin, 2019-02-25), 'merge_recursive_generic()' was used to merge a stash
into the working tree as part of 'git stash (apply|pop)'. However, with the
single merge base used in 'do_apply_stash()', the commit wrapping done by
'merge_recursive_generic()' is not only unnecessary, but misleading (the
*real* merge base is labeled "constructed merge base"). Therefore, a
non-recursive merge of the working tree, stashed tree, and stash base tree
is more appropriate.
There are two options for a non-recursive merge-then-update-worktree
function: 'merge_trees()' and 'merge_ort_nonrecursive()'. Use
'merge_ort_nonrecursive()' to align with the default merge strategy used by
'git merge' (6a5fb96672 (Change default merge backend from recursive to ort,
2021-08-04)) and, because merge-ort does not operate in-place on the index,
avoid unnecessary index expansion. Update tests in 't1092' verifying index
expansion for 'git stash' accordingly.

Enable sparse index in 'git stash' by disabling
'command_requires_full_index'.
With sparse index enabled, some subcommands of 'stash' work without
expanding the index, e.g., 'git stash', 'git stash list', 'git stash drop',
etc. Others ensure the index is expanded either directly (as in the case of
'git stash [pop|apply]', where the call to 'merge_recursive_generic()' in
'do_apply_stash()' triggers the expansion), or in a command called
internally by stash (e.g., 'git update-index' in 'git stash -u'). So, in
addition to enabling sparse index, add tests to 't1092' demonstrating which
variants of 'git stash' expand the index, and which do not.
Finally, add the option to skip writing 'untracked.txt' in
'ensure_not_expanded', and use that option to successfully apply stashed
untracked files without a conflict in 'untracked.txt'.

introduced a mechanism to delay freeing resources held in
diff_options struct that need to be kept as long as the struct will
be reused to compute diff. "git log -p" was taught to utilize the
mechanism but it was done with an incorrect assumption that the
underlying helper function, cmd_log_walk(), is called only once,
and it is OK to do the freeing at the end of it.
Alas, for "git show A B", the function is called once for each
commit given, so it is not OK to free the resources until we finish
calling it for all the commits given from the command line.
During 2.36 release cycle, we started clearing the <pathspec> as
part of this freeing, which made the bug a lot more visible.
Fix this breakage by tweaking how cmd_log_walk() frees the resources
at the end and using a variant of it that does not immediately free
the resources to show each commit object from the command line in
"git show".

It is not obvious that the 'git rev-parse' builtin would use the sparse
index, but it is possible to parse paths out of the index using the
":<path>" syntax. The 'git rev-parse' output is only the OID of the

show :<path>'. This includes the failure conditions on directories and
the error messages depending on whether a path is in the worktree or
not.

The 'git show' command can take an input to request the state of an
object in the index. This can lead to parsing the index in order to load
a specific file entry. Without the change presented here, a sparse index
would expand to a full one, taking much longer than usual to access a
simple file.
There is one behavioral change that happens here, though: we now can
find a sparse directory entry within the index! Commands that previously
failed because we could not find an entry in the worktree or index now
succeed because we _do_ find an entry in the index.
There might be more work to do to make other situations succeed when
looking for an indexed tree, perhaps by looking at or updating the
cache-tree extension as needed. These situations include having a full
index or asking for a directory that is within the sparse-checkout cone
(and hence is not a sparse directory entry in the index).
For now, we demonstrate how the sparse index integration is extremely
simple for files outside of the cone as well as directories within the
cone. A later change will resolve this behavior around sparse
directories.

This only surfaced as a regression after 2.36 release, but the
breakage was already there with us for at least a year.
The diff_free() call is to be used after we completely finished with
a diffopt structure. After "git diff A B" finishes producing
output, calling it before process exit is fine. But there are
commands that prepares diff_options struct once, compares two sets
of paths, releases resources that were used to do the comparison,
then reuses the same diff_option struct to go on to compare the next
two sets of paths, like "git log -p".
After "git log -p" finishes showing a single commit, calling it
before it goes on to the next commit is NOT fine. There is a
mechanism, the .no_free member in diff_options struct, to help "git
log" to avoid calling diff_free() after showing each commit and
instead call it just one. When the mechanism was introduced in
e900d494 (diff: add an API for deferred freeing, 2021-02-11),
however, we forgot to do the same to "diff-tree --stdin", which *is*
a moral equivalent to "git log".
During 2.36 release cycle, we started clearing the pathspec in
diff_free(), so programs like gitk that runs
git diff-tree --stdin -- <pathspec>
downstream of a pipe, processing one commit after another, started
showing irrelevant comparison outside the given <pathspec> from the
second commit. The same commit, by forgetting to teach the .no_free
mechanism, broke "diff-tree --stdin -I<regexp>" and nobody noticed
it for over a year, presumably because it is so seldom used an
option.
But <pathspec> is a different story. The breakage was very
prominently visible and was reported immediately after 2.36 was
released.
Fix this breakage by mimicking how "git log" utilizes the .no_free
member so that "diff-tree --stdin" behaves more similarly to "log".
Protect the fix with a few new tests.

The --object-dir argument to 'git multi-pack-index' allows a user to
specify an alternate to use instead of the local $GITDIR. This is used
by third-party tools like VFS for Git to maintain the pack-files in a
"shared object cache" used by multiple clones.
On Windows, the user can specify a path using a Windows-style file path
with backslashes such as "C:\Path\To\ObjectDir". This same path style is
used in the .git/objects/info/alternates file, so it already matches the
path of that alternate. However, find_odb() converts these paths to
real-paths for the comparison, which use forward slashes. As of the
previous change, lookup_multi_pack_index() uses real-paths, so it
correctly finds the target multi-pack-index when given these paths.
Some commands such as 'git multi-pack-index repack' call child processes
using the object_dir value, so it can be helpful to convert the path to
the real-path before sending it to those locations.
Add a callback to convert the real path immediately upon parsing the
argument. We need to be careful that we don't store the exact value out
of get_object_directory() and free it, or we could corrupt a later use
of the_repository->objects->odb->path.
We don't use get_object_directory() for the initial instantiation in
cmd_multi_pack_index() because we need 'git multi-pack-index -h' to work
without a Git repository.

When "--current" is given to "git show-branch" running in the
"--reflog" mode, the code tries to reference a "reflog" message
that does not even exist. This is because the --current is not
prepared to work in that mode.
The reason "--current" exists is to support this request:
I list branches on the command line. These are the branchesI
care about and I use as anchoring points. I may or may not be on
one of these main branches. Please make sure I can view the
commits on the current branch with respect to what is in these
other branches.
And to serve that request, the code checks if the current branch is
among the ones listed on the command line, and adds it only if it is
not to the end of one array, which essentially lists the objects.
The reflog mode additionally uses another array to list reflog
messages, which the "--current" code does not add to. This leaves
one uninitialized slot at the end of the array of reflog messages,
and causes the program to show garbage or segfault.
Catch the unsupported (and meaningless) combination and exit with a

There are other combinations of options that are incompatible but
