8552972b13 t3701: use test-terminal to collect color output
When testing whether "add -p" can generate colors, we set
color.ui to "always". This isn't a very good test, as in the
real-world a user typically has "auto" coupled with stdout
going to a terminal (and it's plausible that this could mask
a real bug in add--interactive if we depend on plumbing's
isatty check).

Let's switch to test_terminal, which gives us a more
realistic environment. This also prepare us for future
changes to the "always" color option.

a655a59595 t4015: prefer --color to -c color.diff=always
t4015 contains many color-related tests which need to
override the "is stdout a tty" check. They do so by setting
the color.diff config, but we can accomplish the same with
the --color option. Besides being shorter to type, switching
will prepare us for upcoming changes to "always" when see it
in config.

e433749d86 test-terminal: set TERM=vt100
The point of the test-terminal script is to simulate in the
test scripts an environment where output is going to a real
terminal.

But since test-lib.sh also sets TERM=dumb, the simulation
isn't very realistic. The color code will skip auto-coloring
for TERM=dumb, leading to us liberally sprinkling

  test_terminal env TERM=vt100 git ...

through the test suite to convince the tests to actually
generate colors. Let's set TERM for programs run under
test_terminal, which is one less thing for test-writers to
remember.

In most cases the callers can be simplified, but note there
is one interesting case in t4202. It uses test_terminal to
check the auto-enabling of --decorate, but the expected
output _doesn't_ contain colors (because TERM=dumb
suppresses them). Using TERM=vt100 is closer to what the
real world looks like; adjust the expected output to match.

7a5edbdb74 ref-filter.c: parse trailers arguments with %(contents) atom
The %(contents) atom takes a contents "field" as its argument. Since
"trailers" is one of those fields, extend contents_atom_parser to parse
"trailers"'s arguments when used through "%(contents)", like:

  %(contents:trailers:unfold,only)

A caveat: trailers_atom_parser expects NULL when no arguments are given
(see: `parse_ref_filter_atom`). This is because string_list_split (given
a maxsplit of -1) returns a 1-ary string_list* containing the given
string if the delimiter could not be found using `strchr`.

To simulate this behavior without teaching trailers_atom_parser to
accept strings with length zero, conditionally pass NULL to
trailers_atom_parser if the arguments portion of the argument to
%(contents) is empty.

6f5c77a119 t4205: unfold across multiple lines
Tests in t4205 test the following:

By ensuring the multi-line trailers are unfolded back onto the same
line. t4205 only includes tests for 2-line trailers, but `unfold()` will
fail for folded trailers on 3 or more lines.

In preparation for adding subsequent tests in t6300 that test similar
behavior in `git-for-each-ref(1)`, let's harden t4205 (and make it
consistent with the changes in t6300) by ensuring that 3 or more
line folded trailers are unfolded correctly.

Having a .clang-format file in a project can be understood in a way that
code has to be in the style defined by the .clang-format file, i.e., you

This unfortunately is not yet the case in the Git project, as the
format file is still work in progress.  Explain it with a comment in
the beginning of the file.

Additionally, the working clang-format version is mentioned because the

7099153e8d tag: avoid NULL pointer arithmetic
lookup_blob() etc. can return NULL if the referenced object isn't of the
expected type.  In theory it's wrong to reference the object member in
that case.  In practice it's OK because it's located at offset 0 for all
types, so the pointer arithmetic (NULL + 0) is optimized out by the
compiler.  The issue is reported by Clang's AddressSanitizer, though.

Avoid the ASan error by casting the results of the lookup functions to
struct object pointers.  That works fine with NULL pointers as well.  We
already rely on the object member being first in all object types in
other places in the code.

14527b3002 fsmonitor: add a performance test
Add a test utility (test-drop-caches) that flushes all changes to disk
then drops file system cache on Windows, Linux, and OSX.

Add a perf test (p7519-fsmonitor.sh) for fsmonitor.

By default, the performance test will utilize the Watchman file system
monitor if it is installed.  If Watchman is not installed, it will use a
dummy integration script that does not report any new or modified files.
The dummy script has very little overhead which provides optimistic results.

The performance test will also use the untracked cache feature if it is
available as fsmonitor uses it to speed up scanning for untracked files.

There are 4 environment variables that can be used to alter the default
behavior of the performance test:

GIT_PERF_7519_UNTRACKED_CACHE: used to configure core.untrackedCache
GIT_PERF_7519_SPLIT_INDEX: used to configure core.splitIndex
GIT_PERF_7519_FSMONITOR: used to configure core.fsmonitor
GIT_PERF_7519_DROP_CACHE: if set, the OS caches are dropped between tests

The big win for using fsmonitor is the elimination of the need to scan the
working directory looking for changed and untracked files. If the file
information is all cached in RAM, the benefits are reduced.

Test that ensure status results are correct when using the new fsmonitor
extension.  Test untracked, modified, and new files by ensuring the
results are identical to when not using the extension.

Test that if the fsmonitor extension doesn't tell git about a change, it
doesn't discover it on its own.  This ensures git is honoring the
extension and that we get the performance benefits desired.

Three test integration scripts are provided:

fsmonitor-all - marks all files as dirty
fsmonitor-none - marks no files as dirty
fsmonitor-watchman - integrates with Watchman with debug logging

To run tests in the test suite while utilizing fsmonitor:

First copy t/t7519/fsmonitor-all to a location in your path and then set
GIT_FORCE_PRELOAD_TEST=true and GIT_FSMONITOR_TEST=fsmonitor-all and run
your tests.

Note: currently when using the test script fsmonitor-watchman on
Windows, many tests fail due to a reported but not yet fixed bug in
Watchman where it holds on to handles for directories and files which
prevents the test directory from being cleaned up properly.

e692851763 split-index: disable the fsmonitor extension when running the split index test
The split index test t1700-split-index.sh has hard coded SHA values for
the index.  Currently it supports index V4 and V3 but assumes there are
no index extensions loaded.

When manually forcing the fsmonitor extension to be turned on when
running the test suite, the SHA values no longer match which causes the
test to fail.

The potential matrix of index extensions and index versions can is quite
large so instead temporarily disable the extension before attempting to
run the test until the underlying problem of hard coded SHA values is fixed.

883e248b8a fsmonitor: teach git to optionally utilize a file system monitor to speed up detecting new or changed files.
When the index is read from disk, the fsmonitor index extension is used
to flag the last known potentially dirty index entries. The registered
core.fsmonitor command is called with the time the index was last
updated and returns the list of files changed since that time. This list
is used to flag any additional dirty cache entries and untracked cache
directories.

We can then use this valid state to speed up preload_index(),
ie_match_stat(), and refresh_cache_ent() as they do not need to lstat()
files to detect potential changes for those entries marked
CE_FSMONITOR_VALID.

In addition, if the untracked cache is turned on valid_cached_dir() can
skip checking directories for new or changed files as fsmonitor will
invalidate the cache only for those directories that have been
identified as having potential changes.

To keep the CE_FSMONITOR_VALID state accurate during git operations;
when git updates a cache entry to match the current state on disk,
it will now set the CE_FSMONITOR_VALID bit.

Inversely, anytime git changes a cache entry, the CE_FSMONITOR_VALID bit
is cleared and the corresponding untracked cache directory is marked
invalid.
